Machine Head
The Blackening
In 1994, Machine Head crashed into the metal scene with Burn My Eyes, an album that to this day is regarded as a classic of the genre. At a time when metal was being pushed back underground by grunge and punk, it was an album we could all get behind, and "Let freedom ring with a shotgun blast" became a mantra for the day. They even got to tour with Slayer on the Divine Intervention tour, further solidifying their status as THE band to watch. The fires had cooled a bit by 1997 when they released The More Things Change, which was accepted with a lukewarm reaction by fans who liked it but felt it was a huge step down from their debut. The downward slide continued through the ill-fated The Burning Red and the perhaps unfairly criticized Supercharger, periods marked by the loss of original members Logan Mader and Chris Kontos, but founding members Robb Flynn and Adam Duce were unflinching, recruiting guitarist Ahrue Luster and hard-hitting drummer Dave McClain into the band for those latter albums.
Then in 2003, something amazing happened. Following Luster's departure, Flynn recruited his former Vio-lence bandmate Phil Demmel to join the band on lead guitar, reuniting one of the most blistering guitar duos in metal history. The resulting album, Through the Ashes of Empires, was released on an unsuspecting public to almost unanimous praise. While some fans were beyond saving, many hailed it as a return to form, or at least a step in the right direction. Several critics even proclaimed that it surpassed their legendary debut. Once again, the band toured vigorously in support over the next year or so before settling down to craft their masterwork. Popping up for the occasional live gig in the summer of 2006, "Aesthetics of Hate" pummeled audiences with it's sheer brutality, proving the band still had plenty of gas left in the engine. Fans had to be wondering "Will the entire new album be like this?" The answer is a resounding yes, as The Blackening is easily the band's best work since Burn My Eyes - possibly even better.
"Clenching the Fists of Dissent" is the perfect album opener. After a slow, mellow introduction, the band put the pedal to the metal and bulldoze forward a thrashy main riff gives way to bridge and chorus sections that have those signature Machine Head beatdowns. Toss in a methodical midsection that gives you time to think about what's coming next, follow that with some blistering solos that lead you right back into the main verse riff, and after a mere 10 minutes it's all over – but only seems like half that. "Beautiful Morning" may not have been the best track to put next, more midtempo and mellow. Hardly a weak track, but definitely a letdown after the opener. "Aesthetics of Hate" changes that in a hurry. The much talked about track lashes out at a conservative journalist who claimed that Dimebag got what he deserved and that all of his fans were a bunch of Neanderthals. Needless to say, Flynn and Co. have never sounded so pissed off, and this competes with "Slanderous", where Flynn gives a middle finger to all the antagonists he has faced in his life, for the heaviest track on the album.
"Now I Lay Thee Down" is another more mid-paced track but is played in a way that slowly elevates through verse and bridge before unleashing the fury in the choruses. The next three tracks will take you about a half hour to get through, so make sure you're prepared. "Halo" sounds an awful lot like the Machine Head of old, complete with those guitar squeals we all remember. "Wolves" is relentless in attack, and one starts to fear that the band is going to break themselves in half. The disc ends with "A Farewell to Arms", an epic in every sense of the world, weaving through tempo and emotional changes to an ultimately exhilarating finish.
Before wrapping it up, I might as well address the cover art issue. A lot of "heavier than thou" folk claimed that they ripped off the concept from some black metal band that most people probably don't give a rat's ass about. Truth be told, it is simply a reproduction of a metal carving used in old times by the church to instill fear and conformity from the people. It's a skeleton king sitting on a rock with his foot upon the Earth, holding a mirror engraved with the words 'The Mirror Which Flatters Not'. It was symbolic of looking at yourself and not liking what you see, and that's what The Blackening is all about – holding a mirror up to the world and not liking what is seen. War, corrupt politicians, conservative douchebags, high gas prices – what IS there to like? Oh yeah – this album.
The Blackening is to Machine Head what Shovel Headed Kill Machine was to Exodus: better than anyone ever could have thought after the great album that preceded it. The circumstances were different but the end results the same: a veteran band left for dead come back to kick your ass and hand it to you pre-soiled. This is the best album I've heard thus far this young year, and I'm not expecting any contenders for awhile.

Snake on plane forces emergency landing
Updated On: Dec 04 2012 07:07:22 PM CST
Ninety passengers aboard an Egypt Air flight from Cairo to Kuwait could have used actor Samuel L. Jackson this week after a snake reportedly bit a Jordanian man who smuggled the reptile onboard.
Jackson's character in the movie "Snakes on a Plane" tries to figure out how to save the aircraft after crates of hyped-up serpents started killing the cast.
There wasn't quite that kind of drama on Monday, but the incident forced the pilot to make an emergency landing in the Egyptian resort town of Al Ghardaqa on the Red Sea, according to The Jordan Times.
An Egypt Air official told the paper an investigation revealed that the 48-year-old passenger, who owns a reptile shop in Kuwait, had hidden the Egyptian cobra in a carry-on bag. The passenger was trying to control the snake after it bit his hand and started slithering under the seats.
The Egyptian daily al-Masry al-Youm reported that the man refused medical treatment, claiming his wound was only superficial. The plane resumed its flight to Kuwait after local authorities confiscated the snake.
Egyptian cobras are commonly found across North Africa.
According to wildlife experts, the cobra's venom is so deadly it can kill a full-grown elephant in three hours or a person in about 15 minutes. The venom destroys nerve tissue and causes paralysis and death because of respiratory failure.
Legend has it that in ancient times Cleopatra, the Egyptian queen, used the Egyptian cobra to commit suicide.

Powerful interests defend mortgage deduction
Housing industry tells Washington not to touch it
Washington should stay away from touching the mortgage interest tax deduction, warns the U.S. housing industry.
Lately, housing is on the mend and one of the few bright spots in a lumbering economic recovery. Taking away a key tax break could throw a wrench into home buying plans and hurt a long-sputtering recovery.
Lawmakers in both parties are on the lookout for tax revenue as a way to avert the fiscal cliff.
But the housing industry is preparing to fight against any move to get rid of the mortgage interest tax break.
Powerful housing lobbying groups are taking their fight to the grass roots, armed with granular data on the benefits of the homeowner tax break in every congressional district.
"(Getting rid of it) would throw the housing sector into turmoil... and chill the market just as it is trying to recover," said Jerry Howard, CEO of the National Association of Home Builders.
This isn't the first time Washington has taken a critical look at the mortgage interest tax deduction.
It is one of the oldest tax breaks designed to encourage home ownership, by lowering the tax bill for homeowners.
It tends to benefit upper middle class families the most, according to the nonprofit Tax Policy Center. For those earning more than $250,000 a year, the annual tax savings run about $5,460. For those with annual incomes of less than $40,000 a year, the average savings is just $91, according to the center.
The deduction is the third largest tax expenditure on the federal budget, according to the Congressional Research Service. The amount of revenue the government would forgo from those claiming mortgage interest deductions is estimated to reach $100 billion by 2014.
Several times, President Obama has proposed cutting the deduction down to 28% from 35% of mortgage interest payments for Americans in the top income bracket.
But his proposals have gotten nowhere, thanks to lobbying from home builders, the National Association of Realtors and the Mortgage Bankers Association.
But this time, lobbyists are worried. That's because for the first time in years, House Republicans say they are open to scrubbing any tax breaks from the books as part of shrinking federal deficits.
Housing lobbyists have spent a combined $30 million this year, up from $27 million last year, according to Center for Responsive Politics figures.
They're ensuring that leaders don't do anything "penny-wise and pound foolish," said David Stevens, CEO of the Mortgage Bankers Association.
The economy "could actually move backwards" if the deduction is taken away, he warned because it has a significant impact on middle class Americans' cash flow.
Another powerful group, the National Association of Realtors, has spent a record $25 million on lobbying this year, more than any other year, federal records show. The group declined to share its plans on defending the deduction.
But earlier this month, its President Gary Thomas touted that the group had "secured 183 bipartisan cosponsors," this year to support a House resolution that would protect the current tax deduction for mortgage interest.
"We will continue to work with members of Congress on the consumer's behalf on this issue," Thomas said in a statement.

The warming weather beckons us all outside, but don't expose yourself to premature aging and unnecessary sun damage! Live safely under the sun with these solar defense strategies. Here's what to know before you bask in the glow:
Ask the Esthetician:
Q: What's the difference between UVA and UVB rays?
A: UVB rays affect the surface layer of the skin and are the cause of sunburn. UVA rays penetrate to the deep layer of the skin and cause tanning. UVA rays also cause long term damage in the form of wrinkles and premature aging. Both UVA and UVB rays have been linked to skin cancers.
Q: What should I look for on a sunscreen label?
A: SPF (Sun Protection Factor) is the rating of how much protection a product offers from sunburn (UVB rays) only. Currently there is no standard for labeling UVA protection in North America. To find a sunscreen that offers protection from both UVA and UVB rays you need to read the fine print. Look for products that list one of the following as an Active Ingredient: Zinc Oxide, Titanium Dioxide, Avobenzone or Mexoryl SX (ecamsule). Sunscreens that use only Zinc Oxide and/or Titanium Dioxide are generally recommended for children and sensitive skin types.
Q: How much protection do I need?
A: The amount of protection you get will depend on several factors, including how fair your skin is, the time of day and how much and how often you apply. No sunscreen can provide 100% protection from UV rays. There's actually not much difference in UVB protection from an SPF 15 to an SPF 30, so don't rely on higher numbers thinking you won't need to reapply. Layering different types of products that contain sunscreen (like moisturizer, foundation, powder) is a great option for increased protection or reapplication, just keep in mind that the combined SPF will not equal the sum of the two (or more) products ratings.
Q: How much sunscreen should I apply? How often?
A: Few people apply sunscreen thickly enough to get the full SPF. Estimate about an ounce for the whole body. Don't forget often overlooked areas like the ears and exposed necklines! Aim to apply sunscreen 30 minutes prior to sun exposure. Reapply at least every 2 hours or immediately after swimming or sweating.
Q: Isn't sunscreen only for sunny summer days?
A: You should use sunscreen every day, rain or shine. Even on a cloudy or hazy day, UV rays are active. UV rays bounce off things like water, snow, sand and concrete, so even if you're in the shade you still need protection. If you spend the daylight hours in an office you may think you don't need a sunscreen, but you're being exposed to UV rays near windows or when you're in a vehicle.
Q: If I have dark skin or get a base tan am I more protected?
A: Skin of every color needs sunscreen. Having a darker skin tone or getting a base tan means you generally wont burn as quickly, but this does nothing to protect you from UVA damage. The only safe tan is one produced with a self-tanner, and even then you will still need the protection of a good sunscreen.

Eisleben and Wittenberg still offer visitors many reminders of both the Reformation and the Renaissance.
Martin Luther was born in Eisleben and he also died there. There is plenty to see in the town's old quarter, for example the historical market square with its splendid town houses, the Luther statue and the historical town hall. Specific Luther sites include the house in which he was born, the church of St. Peter and Paul where he was baptised, St. Andrew's Church with its original Luther pulpit, St. Anne's Church with the only stone-carved biblical scenes in Europe and the Luther Museum in the house where he died on 18 February 1546. A stroll through Wittenberg should take in the Castle Church with its world famous 'Theses door', the graves of Luther and Melanchthon, the Cranach courtyards, the Town Church with its striking Cranach altar and the houses where Luther and Melanchthon used to live. From the end of the 15th century Wittenberg was the electoral seat of Frederick the Wise. His astute politics, the university founded in 1502 and the influence of Luther and other Reformers combined to make Wittenberg a leading centre of religious and cultural life in Europe. From 1511 Martin Luther lived and worked in the town's Augustinian Monastery as a monk and a scholar. After he got married in 1525 he received the building as a gift. His livingroom remains as it was during his lifetime.

Hikes with Kids
Miles of easy, fun and interesting hikes that appeal to children of all ages abound throughout Maine, from the beaches and rocks of the coast to the forested hills and mountains inland. On the trail a whole new world opens up for young and the young-at-heart, providing a wonderful opportunity for families to explore nature and the outdoors. From pebbles, frogs and butterflies to trees, ponds and mountaintop views, walking the Maine woods with your kids is a great way to laugh and learn and simply enjoy a few hours of special time together.
Beaches from York to Bar Harbor offer many kid-friendly hiking options. Walk the sands of Old Orchard Beach and stop for an ice cream at The Pier. Take a hike over Morse Mountain to Sewall Beach to watch the waves and listen to the gulls squawk. Explore the tide pools in the pink granite rocks at Sand Beach in Acadia National Park.
Waterfalls and streams are exciting destinations that bring wonder to the faces of children, as they sit and watch the water flow by and then plunge over the big drop. The cascades of Bickford Brook Slides are an easy walk in from Evans Notch in the Maine region of the White Mountain National Forest and can be combined with a hike to the open ledges part way up Blueberry Mountain. A trip into Little Abol Falls in the heart of Baxter State Park gives youngsters a taste of the Maine's magnificent wilderness.
Mountain hiking rewards young hikers with awe-inspiring scenic views. The precipitous cliffs of Sabattus Mountain in Center Lovell offer an amazing panorama of seemingly endless mountains as well as an interesting lesson in geology. From the outlook atop Maiden's Cliff in the Camden Hills you can see across Megunticook Lake to the Atlantic Ocean. At cliff's edge is the cross erected in memory of the young Eleanora French, who tragically fell from this spot in 1864.
Lakes and ponds provide a good chance to view wildlife, and on your hike into Big and Little Moose Ponds just east of Moosehead Lake, you might see beavers at work and moose feeding in the shallows. Circle the ponds and scamper to the ridge above and you and the kids will get a great look at Big Moose Mountain. Try the Swett Brook Nature Trail at Mount Blue State Park, visit the displays at the nature center, and then enjoy a swim and a picnic lunch at Lake Webb.

Strokes due to cardiogenic embolism are caused by emboli (blood clots that that develop in the heart and then break away to travel in the bloodstream). The embolus travels through the blood and becomes lodged in a small artery in the brain.

Fake bishop busted and booted from Vatican
Man tries to infiltrate Monday meeting of cardinals
Move over, Tareq and Michaele Salahi, the Virginia ex-couple who famously -- or infamously -- crashed President Obama's first White House state dinner. There's a new impostor posing with dignitaries, and he set his sights on an even more coveted gathering.
Meet Ralph Napierski, a German self-declared bishop who reportedly called himself "Basilius," said he was with the nonexistent "Italian Orthodox Church" and set out to infiltrate a Monday meeting of cardinals at the Vatican.
The fake bishop donned a purple sash (really a scarf) over his vestments and mingled with cardinals and others who'd flown in from around the globe ahead of the conclave to pick a new pope. He smiled wide and posed for cameras while shaking hands with Cardinal Sergio Sebiastiana. He tried to blend in.
But before he could get into Paul VI Hall for a top-secret meeting, the Telegraph reported, Napierski was nabbed and booted by Swiss Guards. Seems the disguise, which was a little off, gave him away. The cassock was too short, the crucifix around his neck a bit different, the purple scarf conspicuous against all the red. The fedora on his head, against all the skullcaps, probably didn't help.
Napierski, who disputes the media reports, apparently runs several websites, including one dedicated to Jesus Yoga. In a rambling blog called Corpus Dei, which he describes as a "Catholic order after episcopal law," he writes that he is "a slave and apostle like St. Paul" and "is fighting the Heresy and false movements inside the Roman Catholic Church."
He also claims to be an "internet hacker and activist" and an inventor who came up with "a system to enable persons to control computers with the Power of thoughts."
What he was thinking on Monday at the Vatican is unknown. But the International Business Times said he told reporters "that he believed Catholic bishops were wrong to move priests who had been accused of sexual abuses around various parishes, prompting the Daily Mail to describe him as a 'child abuse protester.' "
CNN reached out to Napierski on Tuesday, hoping to hear his side of the story. In an e-mail response he sent late in the day, he provided a link to a blog entry in which he denied what had been reported. He titled the entry, " 'Conclavebuster' Bishop Ralph Napierski and The Vatican Scandal that never happened - Truth revealed!"
He claimed that he was simply there in his capacity as a Catholic bishop and visited, with three of his priests, to announce the creation of the Congregation of Our Lady of Refuge, which he said he founded. He had a "wonderful small talk" with the cardinal he was photographed with, he wrote, adding that he even returned to the Vatican Monday night - after seeing the media reports - to get confirmation that he hadn't been kicked out.
German press, however, said Napierski cannot be trusted.
Spiegel Online reported on Tuesday that Napierski is "known among German clerics as something of a troublemaker." He has a history of "posing as a priest with church officials and politicians, and he also made an appearance at Berlin's Venus erotica trade fair."
"He does not work with any of our institutions in any way," Berlin Catholic diocese spokesman Matthias Kopp told Bild Zietung, a German daily tabloid, according to Spiegel Online. "Napierski is 'self-aggrandizing,' frequently pens angry letters, and preaches about sex, the paper reports. ... Kopp told the paper that his behavior was 'unacceptable.' "

Dear Gary Van Meter:
I must state my very strong opposition to the FCA's "Rural Community
Investments" proposal. This proposal is illegal, inconsistent with
legislative history, and transforms this retail government sponsored
enterprise (GSE) away from its historic mission of serving farmers and
ranchers and their farmer-owned businesses. This proposal will harm
farmers and ranchers and our rural communities.
Congress has not authorized FCS to make loans for any of the purposes that
the FCA outlines. For FCA to suggest that the financing of activities
that would otherwise be illegal under the Act is consistent with
congressional intent if these activities are labeled or considered to be
"investments" is spurious. Instead of targeting "mission-related"
investments, the proposal allows a vast array of financing for non-farm
activities including restaurants, hotels, commercial buildings,
manufacturing and any other purposes that FCA may approve in the future.
This is a dramatic shift away from those the FCS was created to serve,
farmers and ranchers, in favor of those activities not actually related to
production agriculture.
These "investments" are not simply supplemental credit that is additional
or complimentary to loans made by community banks. Instead, such
financing would displace credit extended by the banking sector. Therefore,
it is illogical and misleading for FCA to suggest that these investments
would not be the equivalent of loans. It is deceptive for FCA to suggest
that the "bonds" FCS would use to finance a wide array of businesses are
something other than loans.
I disagree that allowing FCS to finance community facilities,
transportation projects and other economic development activities are
"mission-related" purposes just because farmers may live in rural
communities. The vast majority of populations living in rural communities
are not farmers and the activities financed would not be primarily of
benefit to farmers, but the general populace. FCA's suggestion that
farmers may indirectly benefit is a ridiculous rationale for the proposal.
The proposal also will cause great harm to our rural communities as FCS
lenders will usurp huge amounts of financing from the community banking
sector. FCA states this siphoning of bank finance will be over $35
billion in the first year of the program. In a decade's time, at current
growth rates, the amount of financing siphoned away from banks and geared
exclusively towards non-farm purposes could equal or exceed the FCS's
current total loan volume and far exceed the current level of loans to
actual farmers. As FCS lenders cherry-pick the best financing
opportunities away from the banking sector, many banks will be forced out
of business as they lack the tax and funding subsidies of FCS lenders.
While FCA typically goes to great length to suggest the banking sector
isn't disadvantaged in terms of federal subsidies compared to FCS lenders,
these arguments are superficial and misleading.
The risky venture capital investments allowed by FCA places the capital of
FCS's farmer borrowers at risk of loss. According to the FCA's most
recent annual report, over eighty percent of System surplus is capital.
Banks are not allowed to make investments of 150 percent of their surplus
or capital in these activities and bank investments are based on actual
legislative authorization by Congress. FCA's proposal goes far beyond
anything contemplated in the Farm Credit Act by Congress and in other laws
applicable to the banking industry. Banks, unlike FCS lenders, are
intended to be general purpose lenders and therefore it makes no sense for
FCA to adopt broader policies targeting non-farm purposes than is allowed
for the banking sector. The proposal also would allow the mixing of
banking and commerce by a GSE. Congress has historically prohibited
mixing of banking and commerce due to conflicts of interests.
The practical result of FCA's proposal is to make the congressionally
intended limits in the Act meaningless. Any illegal loan or financial
activity could be determined by FCA to be an investment and therefore
legal. FCA's interpretations would become supreme while the actual
statute would have little or no significance. Congress rejected FCS
efforts to gain expanded powers as part of the farm bill. Congress did
not add FCS expansions in either the credit or rural development titles of
this bill, an unmistakable indication Congress did want FCS institutions
to be general purpose lenders. FCA could have consulted with Congress on
rural development policies but chose to wait until after the farm bill's
completion to bring forward this proposal, a very curious approach if
FCA's goal was actually aimed at enhancing rural development.
It is quite troubling that FCA defines "rural" as communities up to 50,000
people. The Census Bureau defines rural as towns of 2,500 or fewer. In
contrast to the proposal, the Act itself limits non-farm financing for
rural home mortgages to towns of 2,500 or less and for water and waste
disposal (essential community facilities) to towns of 20,000. FCA's rural
definition would allow FCS financing near large cities, while ignoring
financing in remote rural areas. This proves that the proposal is not
really intended to address any real capital access issues that may exist
in rural areas. The proposal's real goal is just to expand FCS powers as
broadly as possible.
Congress granted FCA basic authority to regulate investments to ensure FCS
lenders can manage their liquidity requirements and interest rate risks on
their balance sheets. In contrast, this proposal allows FCS lenders to
make currently illegal loans if they are labeled as investments.
This proposal is unwarranted and would harm rural America by displacing
many community banks. It also puts the hard earned capital of the
System's owners at risk and allows for an arbitrary and high level of
System capital to be funneled into investments which displace banking
loans. Suggesting that this proposal will benefit the banking sector is
misleading when FCS and FCA have not sought to discuss or develop the
proposal in coordination with the banking community. This is a
self-serving proposal that FCA is trying to disguise with the appearance
of good intentions. There is already a flexible flow of credit to rural
America and FCS itself testified to Congress last year that there are no
credit gaps in rural America. Congress has not authorized FCS entities to
be broad-based rural development lenders. The proposal is inconsistent
with legislative history and the Farm Credit Act. I respectfully request
that FCA withdraw the proposal.

flashed SSD drive and I got reduce disk health by 10%. It is normal for the new firmware? What can be done? It's not like me.
Hi All,
Need some advise please - I have a 17" late 2011 macbook pro fitted with 16gb ram (also Crucial).
All was running fine under this configuration but then I had a hard drive failure
I fitted a new 480GB M500, no problems on the install. Ever since the fan has been kicking in to high speed regularly (pretty much all the time) and the temperature goes up under very little load. As I write the temperature is 82 deg C and the fan is spinning so that I can hear it - the only thing running on the machine is this browser window and Dropbox. The temperature seems to sit at 72-73 deg C with nothing running on the machine and very often sits in the 90s and stays there until I kick the fan into high gear with SMC fan control.
I'm a software developer and would consider I run the machine hard.
SSD Firmware is MU02, haven't changed any Apple setting since the install but has the latest Updates applied.
Something isn't right and would greatly appreciate any pointers.
I just received my M500 960gb SSD and have been researching the best method for cloning my boot drive to it. I'm running Windows 7 64bit. The current hdd is a 640gb. Motherboard is an Asus P6T Deluxe V2.
Would I be best off ordering the ssd transfer kit from Crucial and using the Acronis Transfer HD cd that comes with that for $20? Or what about using Macrium Reflect free trail instead?
Currently my system is not in AHCI mode, so I was also wondering if it would be best to switch that first before doing the transfer...or is it best to keep it in IDE mode and do the registry switch afterwards.
I know a fresh install of the OS is usually best but I have so much software, drivers and node-locked licensed software on my system it would take me a good week to get everyting up and running again.
My V4 started to lost data this week. However, it has been RMA on may. Can I require another RMA number for this SSD?

The central locking system locks and unlocks the doors as well as the luggage and engine compartments. When the doors are locked, inside release knobs are all lowered. If airbags inflate in an accident, all doors are automatically unlocked. Additional safety settings offer extra convenience: automatic locking of the luggage compartment or safety central locking. All doors and the luggage compartment are then locked automatically when the car is driven at a speed of 6 mph or faster. The luggage compartment locks when the speed is greater than 3 mph, and the safety central locking only initially allows only the driver's door to be opened. A second opening movement opens the remaining doors as well as the tailgate.

Whether former Buckeye Mike Adams starts at right tackle or left for the Pittsburgh Steelers next season will apparently be determined by the team's off-season practice sessions.
Football analyst Phil Steele predicted that Ohio State will be No. 2 in the Associated Press preseason poll, behind only defending national champion Alabama
The parents of Michigan stars Trey Burke and Tim Hardaway Jr. have denied the tweets from sports and entertainment attorney Darren Heitnet that both will declare early entry into the NBA draft when the Final Four ends, Detroit Free Press reporters Mark Snyder wrote.
Buckeyes lose heartbreaker to Gonzaga
MSU's Denicos Allen stopped Braxton Miller a yard short on fourth and 2 with 5:46 to play
Michigan State coach referred to second spot in BCS title game
The Blue Jackets will be without defenseman James Wisniewski for at least the next two games because of an upper body injury, coach Todd Richards said today.
Wisniewski was injured during Friday's 4-0 win over Minnesota - perhaps on a second-period check by Wild forward Matt Cooke -- but played 18 minutes, 43 seconds and finished with a plus-3 rating.
With Wisniewski injured, the Blue Jackets are expected to dress David Savard after four straight healthy scratches.
The Blue Jackets play in Pittsburgh on Monday, then return home to play New Jersey on Tuesday.
Wisniewski and rookie Ryan Murray have emerged in recent weeks as a very reliable defensive pair for Richards. In the last six games, Wisniewski had two assists and a plus-6 rating, while Murray had one goal, one assist and a plus-6 rating.
In 28 games this season ...
The Jackets went six weeks between back-to-back victories. There are mammals – rabbits, ferrets, weasels and even kangaroos – that have gestation periods that long. Go ahead, look it up.
In any case, another winning streak was finally born tonight in the Nationwide Arena, where the Jackets defeated the Minnesota Wild 4-0. A crowd of 11,319 braved apocalyptic weather to bear witness.
The wee winning streak is notable in that both victories were shutouts. Sergei Bobrovsky and Curtis McElhinney combined to beat Tampa Bay 1-0 in the Nationwide Arena Tuesday night. Bobrovsky (groin) went on injured reserve (where he will remain for 4-6 weeks) and McElhinney continued hot against the Wild.
The difference tonight was McElhinney (20 saves) got a lot of help from his teammates and his opponents. The Wild, coming off a stirring, 4-3 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks last night, were clearly deflated and definitely awful against the Jackets. Thanks for coming. Then again, did anyone see Dany Heatley? He was invisible, and he was not alone.

Protecting Seneca Lake from Gas Industry Infrastructure Projects | Two gas industry infrastructure projects are proposed for underground salt caverns on the shores of Seneca Lake, in the Finger Lakes region of Western New York. They would involve large-scale storage facilities with new capacity for 88 million gallons of liquid petroleum gasand additional capacity for natural gas, expanding storage to 2 billion cubic feet. Environmental advocates are concerned that these projects will lock the region into continued extraction and use of dirty fossil fuels and discourage the growth of renewable energy. |
Public's Right to Know: Styrene | Earthjustice and a coalition of groups are working to make sure the government can alert the American public to the potential dangers of styrene, a chemical used extensively in the manufacture of plastics, as well as boats, cars, bathtubs and products made with rubber, such as tires and conveyer belts. |
Stopping Industrialization of the Thompson Divide |
Earthjustice, representing Wilderness Workshop, has filed an administrative appeal seeking reversal of the April 9, 2013, Colorado Bureau of Land Management (BLM) decision that extended the lives of 25 oil and gas leases set to expire in 2013. These leases, which BLM admits were illegally sold and which have sat unused for ten years, are located in the heart of the Thompson Divide, a prized refuge of public lands in the White River National Forest. |
Protecting Chesapeake Bay from LNG Export Terminal | Earthjustice and a coalition of local, regional, and national groups are objecting to the environmental impacts posed by the proposed Dominion Cove Point liquefied natural gasexport terminal on the Chesapeake Bay, saying the project would hurt the Bay's economy and ecology, increase air pollution, and hasten fracking and drilling in neighboring states. |
Protecting America's First National River | A coalition of conservation and citizen groups, represented by Earthjustice, have sent a notice of intent to sue to the U.S. Department of Agriculture regarding its Farm Service Agency's loan guarantee for an industrial 6,500-pig swine facility on the banks of a tributary that flows straight into the Buffalo National River—an action that was not properly examined and may violate the Endangered Species Act. The facility, C&H Hog Farms, is under contract with Cargill, an international producer and marketer of agricultural products. |
Suing City of Rochelle, GA, Over Decades of Sewage Dumping | In Rochelle, Georgia, a group of African-American citizens is suing their city government for discharging the city's raw sewage onto their properties. On behalf of those residents, Earthjustice has notified the city on May 2, 2013 that if problems are not fixed in 60 days, it will file suit under the Clean Water Act to stop the unpermitted discharges of raw sewage from manholes, broken pipes and a ditch. The suit would also prevent the city from bypassing its sewer system and endangering public health by forcing citizens to release sewage into their yards in order to keep it out of their homes. These discharges and bypasses are violations of the Clean Water Act. |
Coal Mines Clouding America's Air | A coalition of groups—including WildEarth Guardians, Sierra Club, Center for Biological Diversity, and Environmental Integrity Project represented by Earthjustice—have filed suit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency over its failure to protect public health and the environment from air pollution from coal mines in the United States. |
Banning Dangerous Rat Poisons | The American Bird Conservancy, Center for Biological Diversity, Defenders of Wildlife and the Sierra Club, represented by Earthjustice, are taking legal action to support the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's efforts to ban sales of several harmful rodenticides. |
Seeking Full Review of GE Salmon Environmental Risks |
Genetically engineered salmon is the first ever GE fish intended for human consumption in the United States. Documents disclosed through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request raise serious questions about the adequacy of the Food and Drug Administration's review of the AquAdvantage Salmon application. |
Protecting Waterways from the TVA Gallatin Coal Plant |
Earthjustice, representing the Tennessee Clean Water Network, the Sierra Club and the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, has appealed a pollution permit issued to Tennessee Valley Authority for its Gallatin coal-fired power plant to prevent toxic discharges of heavy metals and other harmful waste byproducts of burning coal. The plant's polluted wastewaters are dumped into unlined ponds that allow pollution to continue to harm the environment. |
Challenging TVA's Expensive Decision on Gallatin Plant |
Earthjustice and Southern Environmental Law Center, representing Tennessee Scenic Rivers Association, Tennessee Environmental Council, Sierra Club, and Center for Biological Diversity, has filed a legal challenge to the Tennessee Valley Authority on the grounds that TVA violated the National Environmental Policy Act when the federal power company finalized its plan to spend more than one billion dollars to retrofit the Gallatin Fossil Plant, a coal-fired power plant near Nashville. |
Protecting Human Rights by Reducing Black Carbon Emissions to Slow Arctic Warming | The Arctic Athabaskan Council has filed a petition to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, asking the Commission to declare that Canada is undermining the human rights of Athabaskan peoples by poorly regulating emissions of black carbon, or soot, a short-lived climate pollutant which contributes significantly to Arctic warming and melting. Readily available emissions reduction measures could substantially slow Arctic warming and melting and protect Athabaskan rights. |
Protecting Grays Harbor from Becoming an Industrial Crude Oil Zone |
The Quinault Indian Nation, represented by Earthjustice, is opposing the first of at least three proposed oil shipping facilities that could transform Grays Harbor, WA into an industrial crude oil zone. |
Seeking Solutions to Critical Salmon Barrier on Rogue Basin's Evans Creek |
In the wake of failed efforts to broker the voluntary removal of the Rogue Basin's defunct Fielder Dam, Earthjustice, representing WaterWatch of Oregon, has filed suit in U.S. District Court, contending that the dam harms threatened coho salmon in violation of the Endangered Species Act. |
Defending the Gulf of California from "Mega Resorts" |
Earthjustice and the Interamerican Association for Environmental Defense (AIDA), representing local and international environmental organizations, have filed a petition to the North American Commission for Environmental Cooperation, charging the Mexican government with failing to enforce its own environmental laws in authorizing the construction of four "mega resorts" in the Gulf of California. |
