PHOENIX – The last time the Storm visited the desert, it beat Phoenix so badly the Mercury made a coaching change two days later.
That did not work, either.
Point guard Temeka Johnson scored 16 of her game- and season-high 23 points in the first half and Tina Thompson became the second-leading rebounder in WNBA history in the Storm's 81-73 victory at US Airways Center on Friday.
Seattle (13-13) has won 16 of the last 18 regular-season meetings against the Mercury, including all four this season — by an average margin of almost nine points.

The Mercury (14-13) replaced Corey Gaines with coach Russ Pennell after the Storm's most recent victory, 80-65, here Aug. 6.
Johnson made all of her shots — five field goals, five free throws — in the first half as the Storm built a 14-point lead late in the second quarter.
The Mercury was never closer than seven the rest of the way, and then only briefly.
"She was the one person early in the game who was breaking their defense down. She kept us in the game for a period of a time," coach Brian Agler said.
The rising Storm, which has won four of five and seven of its last 10, played its customary throttling man-to-man defense against Mercury guard Diana Taurasi, holding her to four field goals and 16 points.
Taurasi, who is second in the league with a 21.4 scoring average, had 45 points and was 14 of 45 from the field in the season series.
Tanisha Wright covered Taurasi for most of the night, with help from Noelle Quinn.
"We just try to stay in plays with her as much as possible. She is one of the best players in the world and you have to respect that. We give it respect," Wright said of Taurasi.
"She's one of those type of players who smells blood. I don't think people shut her down. It takes an army to do that."
Thompson — who battled in the post with Brittney Griner, the first player drafted this year, for most of the night — had 18 points and seven rebounds.
Thompson's first rebound, No. 3,014 of her career, moved her out of a tie with Taj McWilliams-Franklin behind only Lisa Leslie in league history.
"I guess it's cool. I've been around long enough I should have some type of record going," said Thompson, whose first season was 1997.
Johnson was held out of the fourth quarter after taking a blow to the face while defending a drive with 2:39 left in the third quarter.
She got sick to her stomach when she re-entered the game moments later, Agler said, and did not play again. She passed an initial concussion test during the game and was to undergo further examination last night, Agler said.
"Our people don't think it is a concussion, but you have to check it out," Agler said.
Storm guard Shekinna Stricklen appeared no worse for the wear after leaving in the second quarter of a 77-57 victory over Los Angeles on Tuesday with a strained Achilles tendon.
Stricklen started the game and had seven points and seven rebounds in 31 minutes.

Health & Baby
Make Sure Your Baby Is Sleeping Safely While You're At Work
Compared with infants who died at home, infants who died in child care were twice as likely to be found on their stomachs, and were five times as likely to have been placed on their stomachs before their deaths. The survey also found that 82% of infants who died during their first week in child care were found on their stomachs.
Although some people still advocate putting babies to sleep on their sides, Moon says sleeping on the back is always preferable.
"What I tell parents is that until the baby can roll over, put your baby on the back," Moon says. If a baby is placed on his side, the lower arm should be brought forward as a brace to stop him from rolling over onto his stomach.
The American Academy of Pediatrics' campaign to raise awareness about the need to put babies to sleep on their backs has been extremely successful in reducing rates of SIDS in the last decade, says John Kattwinkel, MD, chair of the Task Force on Infant Positioning and SIDS. The National Center for Health Statistics indicates that the percentage of infants who sleep on their stomachs decreased from 70% in 1992 to 24% in 1996.
"The campaign has been very successful, but it's leveling off," Kattwinkel, a professor of pediatrics at the University of Virginia Health Sciences Center in Charlottesville, tells WebMD. "The SIDS rate is leveling off, as is the number of babies sleeping on their stomachs. This continues to be a matter of education."
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development offers these additional recommendations to keep babies safe during sleep and curb the risk of SIDS:
- Make sure the baby sleeps on a firm mattress or other firm surface.
- Avoid using fluffy blankets or covering.
- Do not place pillows, sheepskins, blankets, or comforters under the baby.
- Do not put babies to sleep on waterbeds.
- Do not put soft, stuffed toys in a crib or near a sleeping baby.

Earlier this month health secretary Andrew Lansley hailed the 'fantastic' achievements of hospitals across England after the results of this year's national cancer patient experience survey showed three out of five hospital trusts have improved the level of care and support they provide to cancer patients... but it's not the whole story.
Cancer is so prevalent these days that the majority of people will experience the disease either directly or indirectly during their life. Some people experience it first hand and survive, others will have had cancer 'scares', and like Mary Aboagye, many will lose dear friends to the devastating disease.

It's not every day that new mommies can pull off wearing skin-tight leather jeans.
The petite Colombian beauty launched her new fragrance, S by Shakira, at Sephora in Paris' Champs-Elysees on March 27, 2013. She was covered in black attire, head-to-toe.
That's totally a slimming trick! But in all reality, you can tell The Voice host's body is looking solid just after two months of giving birth. Not only is her body looking great, she still has a post-baby glow.
Shakira was actively Tweeting during the launch party, as any relevant person would do rather than soak in the moment. According to HelloMagazine she wrote, "Paris' Champs-Élysées is looking pretty busy for the S by Shakira fragrance launch at @Sephora!"
A bit later she Tweeted "The first signature! #SbyShakira #Paris".
Looks like she has the whole package; a great singing voice, a nice bod, a good looking husband, and she apparently smells great too.

"Because It's All Or Nothing." A powerful and very appropriate title that belongs to tonight's emotional events, as Angie Miller, Boston's own gorgeous, bright, and cheerful daughter, got the boot on American Idol tonight, right before season four's finale of Glee aired on Thursday Night, on Fox. With tears flowing, Rachel Berry auditioned for a role in Broadway's "Funny Girl," a surprise wedding took place, between McKinley High's psychologist, Emma Pillsbury, and New Direction's choir director, Will Schuester, and a surprise proposal occurred between two ladies, as they provided much needed love advice to Blaine and Kurt at "Breadsticks." If that wasn't enough, Glee's reigning champions, once again took 1st place in regionals, in the comfort of their own auditiorium, after learning the very exciting news of Brittany's acceptance into MIT, after she admitted to going on a long, personal journey to find who she was ultimately, as an individual. The message behind Glee's season finale and tonight's results show on American Idol, is to never stray from who you are as a person, no matter the given circumstances, always believe in yourself, and take risks. There is no harm in challenging yourself once in a while, as that can often provide others, as well as those around you, with the one and only chance of seeing another different side of your personality. I would consider that a big gift, as most would also tend to agree. And yes, I'm wise on my years, and therefore, I know exactly what I'm talking about. You're welcome.

Images: Minneapolis native, U.S. Marine leads amphibious assault vehicle platoon during weeklong exercise
Photo by Sgt. Jacob Harrer
Gunnery Sgt. Joshua M. Utto, platoon sergeant, 3rd Assault Amphibian Battalion, and a 34-year-old native of Minneapolis, recently completed the weeklong Marine Corps Combat Readiness Exercise at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., Feb. 4 to 8, 2014. During the exercise, Utto led a platoon of assault amphibious vehicles as they transported infantrymen with 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, from sea to shore to secure the beach and capture land-based objectives. After more than a decade of fighting and training for land combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, infantry battalions within 1st Marine Division have reincorporated amphibious scenarios in their training events as part of the U.S. strategic pivot to the Pacific. The MCCRE offers crucial training that prepares the Marines for upcoming deployments around the world aboard U.S. Navy amphibious ships as part of Marine Expeditionary Units.

PROVIDING AN INSIDE LOOK at how the Delaware Supreme Court decides corporate cases, Justice Carolyn Berger addressed the threat of personal philosophy intruding on sound judgments.
Justice Berger, who delivered the DISTINGUISHED JURIST LECTURE in March, said she and her colleagues do their best to remove subjectivity from their rulings by applying longstanding legal principles.
Judges "bring different sensibilities to their decisionmaking," declared Berger. "What we share, I believe, is a strong commitment to the basic goal of maintaining a coherent, predictable and consistent body of law."
Drawing on 20 years as a trial and now appellate court judge
in Delaware, Justice Berger said two bedrock principles guide
jurists: the business judgment rule and the fairness standard.
Justice Berger said the courts defer to the business judgment
rule in their review of cases because judges assume that directors are acting in the best interests of the corporation. However, she
said, that assumption has been tested during hostile takeover
attempts, causing the Supreme Court, in Unocal v. Mesa Petroleum,
to call for heightened scrutiny of directors' conduct.

Spring is on its way! The Rockies are still snow capped but the snow is melting and filling the Fall River. It gets a bit higher every day. You don't have to look at it to know that it is rising—you can hear it. It is just so soothing and relaxing. I find myself not focusing on the tasks that I have to complete. We are busy finishing our winter projects—making the Inn on Fall River more inviting to you our guests. We are just about ready to begin our spring projects and hopefully take a few hikes in Rocky Mountain National Park, too! We went on a hike the other day and I was amazed that there was still so much snow on the trails. We hiked up to Dream Lake and had a picnic lunch. Don't forget to pack your picnic basket when you plan your trip to Estes Park and we would love for you to stay at the Inn on Fall River. We invite you to come and relax by the river, take a hike in RMNP and enjoy downtown Estes Park. Make your reservations now! See you soon!

According to Nintendo's manager of business development Dan Adelman, over one-thousand indie developers have expressed interest in developing for the Wii U. During the Game Developers Conference in March of this year, Nintendo launched a new Wii U developer website (wiiu-developers.nintendo.com) that allowed smaller, independent studios to register their interest in making games for Wii U. Adelman revealed the numbers during a recent interview with GameSpot. He described the response from indie developers as "overwhelming."
"We've gotten probably over 1,000, I don't know if we've hit 2,000, developers with really wide-ranging levels of experience," Adelman said. "We've got some who have recently left their jobs in mainstream publishers and are starting a new company, or have been indies for a while. All the way to high school students who are thinking of getting into game development and want to know more about it."
"So one of the challenges is going through and it's ultimately a resource allocation issue at that point," he continued. "We want to support everybody, so how do we do that in the most effective manner and how do we prioritize in just making sure that… our intent is to support everyone, really. The underlying philosophy is that if you can make a game on our systems, we want to find a way for you to be able to do that."
Last month Adelman confirmed that 20-30 more indie games would be coming to Wii U by the end of 2013. A recent Wii U indie video presentation released by Nintendo showcased 18 upcoming indie titles in the works from Australian and European developers.

BREWSTER, Okanogan County — Several days after the fire came to King Blossom Natural orchard, brothers Pablo and Asuncion Temoxtle dig through the twisted sheet metal and ash that was once their home, searching for jewelry they'd been saving as presents for their families in Mexico.
They find a charred metal can and Pablo cracks it open. It's a stash of coins, some melted and blackened from the flames.
Flavio Trejo, their friend and co-worker here at the apple and pear orchard, sinks a shovel into the thick black ash and dumps the contents out on the grass. They examine the pile of debris. There is no jewelry.
The Carlton complex fire — the largest wildfire on record in Washington history — has destroyed more than 150 homes in the north-central part of the state. But that figure doesn't fully capture the loss.

The fire sneaked into this rural area of Okanogan County from the western hillside early Friday morning, hours before the orchard workers would be up for their 5 a.m. shifts. The flames consumed two buildings at the farm that were home to 50 workers and family members.
The laborers escaped without injury, but had only seconds to grab their belongings. Many lost nearly everything they owned, including money they had saved from working at the orchard this summer.
Most spent the next several nights in an encampment of 13 tents adjacent to the rubble on the orchard grounds; a few others stayed on air mattresses set up at the high school in town, about 4 miles away.
"It was no use when we got home, it was just burned down," said Trejo, a machinery driver. "Everything was burned down."
The Temoxtle brothers were among those who suffered the greatest loss. They came to the orchard six years ago to work and send money back to their families in Mexico. Asuncion planned to visit his family next year, but with the cost of replacing belongings, he's not sure if he'll be able to go.
"Each paycheck they had, they sent money," said Trejo. "Now they can't send money because they need it here."
It was "too late"
Okanogan County is home to a significant Spanish-speaking population. About 19 percent of the more than 41,000 people living in the area identify themselves as Hispanic or Latino, according to census estimates.
That population grows even larger in the summer, when seasonal workers move in, many from other states, to work in the region's fruit orchards.
In emergencies such as the Carlton complex fire, information is usually broadcast in English, so minority populations often are the last to get the updates, said Zonia Quero-Ziada, Red Cross shelter manager in Brewster.
Though the workers at King Blossom could see the plumes of smoke wafting in the distance earlier the evening before, many said later they had no idea their home was in danger.
"The police were coming and driving by, but they never told us to evacuate," said Trejo. "We never heard an alarm — nothing."
It's unclear if emergency responders could have evacuated the workers from the labor camp any sooner.
Late Thursday night, fire burned through the town of Pateros and the surrounding area, incinerating entire blocks of homes. Firefighters and law-enforcement officers scrambled to fight the enormous blaze and order immediate evacuations, said Okanogan Sheriff Frank Rogers.
In the hectic scene, Rogers said, he's not sure if an evacuation notice made it more than 7 miles to Brewster, the town closest to the King Blossom orchard, by the time the flames burned down the hillsides and into the orchard.
Cathy Mendoza, a seasonal worker from California, woke up shortly after midnight to a man outside shouting that the fire was getting close, she said. Mendoza frantically jumped in the car with her husband and drove to Omak, about 27 miles away. She had no time to collect food or money, and they were almost out of gas.
Mendoza still doesn't know who warned her about the fire — likely saving her life in the process — but it may have been Christian Pineda, another orchard worker.
As the fire closed in quickly from the hillside, Pineda grabbed a few sets of spare clothes, but left behind most everything else, including his wrestling medals from high school, some jewelry and $750, he said. Then he ran outside the cabins and began waking up the other workers.
"It was already a little too late," he said. "They just got what they could see and they ran out."
Cesar Trejo, Flavio Trejo's father, packed his wife, children and young grandchildren into the car and also headed toward Omak, where they heard it was safe. At one point, they drove up to flames in the road and had to turn around and find another way in, he said.
About 20 workers met in the Wal-Mart parking lot in Omak. Mendoza didn't sleep at all, she said.
"Nothing's going to happen," Mendoza remembered thinking. "It's just smoke."
As most fled, Carlos Bautista, who lives on the property in a trailer that survived the flames, was among a small group that stayed behind.
As the fire burned through firewood, equipment and wooden props for tree limbs, Bautista and his brother, Fernando, moved tractors out of its path. They set up sprinklers and sprayed the fire with a hose to stop it from moving toward three gasoline tanks — each holding up to 2,000 gallons, he said.
The fire reached one tank and it exploded. "It was a big ball of fire," Bautista said.
The other two remained intact, and Bautista and the rest of the men were able to save much of the equipment, he said. But he watched helplessly as the fire consumed a trailer, which was home to seven people, and an 11-unit cabin with an attached house where 43 people lived.
By morning, rumors began to circulate among the workers who fled that their homes had been destroyed. Then they returned to find the carnage. All that remained was ash, burnt debris and the melted wire skeletons of bunk beds under the disfigured metal roof. One of the chickens on the farm was charred in the grass. A white husky named Bimbo was nowhere to be found.
Pineda poked around the still-burning ash of his cabin with a metal pole, searching for belongings that might have survived the intense heat. But it was all gone.
"I knew it was bad," he said, "but not this bad."

The day after the fire, the orchard's owner arrived with tents and Wal-Mart gift cards for the workers. Though the farm is fully insured, the laborers did not have renters insurance, said Tim McLaughlin, president of AgriMACS, the company that owns King Blossom.
He said they will continue to offer financial support to the workers to help them rebuild their lives, and are trying to get the workers' lost possessions reimbursed as part of the company's insurance claim.
Despite the loss, the laborers went back to work as normal on Sunday.
Monday afternoon, they sat in plastic chairs near their tents, drinking Bud Light and eating donated pork, rice and beans out of Styrofoam takeout boxes.
The hills surrounding the camp were scorched black. A pickup camper shell was propped up against the wreckage with a hose draped over the top, for workers to use as a shower. A man sat on a tailgate and played a few off-key notes on an accordion.
Over the course of the evening, community members dropped off boxes of donated items: water, tortilla shells, canned beans, ice cream, boots and clothes. The workers and their families rifled through boxes and took what they needed.
"Muchas gracias!" they yelled as the good Samaritans drove off.
After dinner Monday, someone decided it was time to build a proper shower, and in moments they began erecting one with wooden props, tarp and twine. They told stories of what they lost in the fire. One man said more than $1,500 he'd saved up this year burned. Miguel Ronquillo, a 17-year-old who works on the farm in the summer, said he lost $500 and three guitars.
"It's gone now, so I can't do anything about it," said Ronquillo nonchalantly.
Others lost IDs and other documentation.
Mendoza walked up to the burnt remains of her cabin and pointed to a pile of destroyed dishes next to a melted oven. Among other things, her collection of $2 bills, family photos and a bag of vital personal documents were lost, she said.
"I can't believe it looks like this," she said, standing in front of the wreckage that used to be her home. "I just — I can't believe it."
The cabins may have been small, she said, "but it was perfect, you know? Everything you need."
Later in the week, many of the workers moved out of the tents and into worker housing at a neighboring orchard, said McLaughlin. Only a sliver of the orchard suffered fire damage, and since employees saved most of the equipment, the disaster shouldn't slow down the orchard's harvest this year, he said.
"We were really blessed nobody was hurt, nobody was killed," said McLaughlin. "This was a very nasty event."

Nur Misuari, a charismatic Muslim leader who set the Philippines' south ablaze with rebellion decades
ago, is back doing what he does best after a less-than-successful fling with peace.
At the age of 71, the former academic is orchestrating a stand-off in the southern port city of Zamboanga that has claimed more than 100 lives and put him back in the national spotlight.
"We don't want to be part of the Philippines anymore,'' Misuari told supporters in his Jolo island stronghold on August 12 as he declared himself the president of the "Bangsamoro Republik'' and railed against national government authorities.
"Their presence in our homeland is illegal, unlawful, illicit. They should pack up and leave.''
A firebrand orator from an influential clan of the Tausug, a warrior-like seafaring tribe, Misuari rallied thousands of fellow Muslims in the early 1970s to take up arms for a separate state in the southern Philippines.
He was continuing a tradition for Muslims in the south of the mostly Catholic Philippines who had for centuries resisted outside Christian rule – whether that be Spanish, American or Filipino.
Misuari was a young political science professor at Manila's prestigious University of the Philippines
when he established the Moro National Liberation Front (MNLF) to launch a war for independence.
The conflict, which eventually took on other forms with the emergence of other rebel groups, has gone on to claim about 150,000 lives.
Misuari went into Middle East exile after a 1976 truce, then returned a decade later following the fall of dictator Ferdinand Marcos to begin negotiations with democratic governments in Manila.
He eventually agreed to a peace pact in 1996, with the MNLF laying down its arms in return for self-rule in parts of the southern Philippines and Misuari as the autonomous region's governor.
But life for Misuari as a bureaucrat and politician would prove to be far less successful than as a revolutionary leader.
As head of the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM), he was finally in a position to help alleviate devastating poverty, corruption and violence in the south, and work to end the oppression that the millions of Muslims there feel.
Instead, he established a reputation among the political elite, the national media and some Muslims as an aloof administrator who was more concerned about his own interests.
They argue he wasted the hundreds of millions of dollars in development funds he controlled.
"Some say he blew his chance, that he did not perform well, that he did not deliver, that he failed his people,'' Jesus Dureza, who advised two past Philippine presidents on Muslim issues, told AFP.
The governor was notorious for spending most of his time away, including weeks at a time with a large retinue at plush Manila hotels or on Middle East tours, said Ramon Casiple, executive director of the Manila-based Institute for Political and Electoral Reform.
Nevertheless, Misuari undoubtedly retains some support and influence.
"Nur is still an icon to some Muslims,'' Dureza said.
He and Casiple said Misuari was still able to tap into powerful emotions among many Muslims in the south of feeling oppressed and their dreams of independence.
His status as the founder of the rebellion would also always ensure respect.
However, they said many also realise that Misuari's motives for instigating the Zamboanga crisis may be driven more by personal interest and a fear of becoming politically irrelevant.
He sent an estimated 200 gunmen to Zamboanga in an effort to derail a planned peace deal with the region's remaining major Muslim rebel group, the 12,000-strong Moro Islamic Liberation Front, which split from the MNLF in 1978.
Under the envisaged peace pact, a new autonomous region largely controlled by the MILF would replace the MNLF-brokered one.
"They fear that they might be outside the mosquito net,'' Dureza said of the MNLF leadership, using a Filipino expression for total exclusion.
However, Misuari may have overplayed his hand, according to Casiple, citing his inability to draw much support beyond the Tausug heartlands of Jolo and Basilan island.
"His problem now is that you have a president who is in no mood to negotiate,'' Casiple said, citing President Aquino's rejection of a ceasefire offer by Misuari and plans to charge his men with rebellion.
"I think this is the endgame for him.'' (AFP)

Old Moms Anal
We no longer link to this site.
We no longer link to this site.
Those of you out there who have been with women of various ages know that while nubile chicks are sometimes inexperienced and hesitant about trying new things, older women are usually up for anything. If they haven't tried it before, then they will try it now. Old Moms Anal brings that theory to the forefront, with older ladies enjoying cock up their ass.
If you came expecting to see hot babes in their late 20s pretending to be older MILFs, then you are going to be disappointed. The moms at OldMomsAnal are definitely older – from what I saw, these women fall anywhere from 35 to 50. They aren't pornstars either. What they all have in common, though, is love of dick in all their holes.
This site isn't the best looking, but it is well-designed and easy to navigate, which is more important. Hit the "all videos" link in the menu bar and you can scroll through a couple of pages of content for a total of 20 movies.
The movies are split up into short two to four-minute clips that can be downloaded in a good-quality Windows Media format. There is also a full-length download option, which is always nice to see.I found some inconsistency in their quality, as some of them just looked better and clearer than others.
There are no pictures, only vid caps. The screenshots are good to browse through to get a sense of what the scene is about, but the videos are really where you will be spending all your time.
It's too bad the content hasn't been updated in over two and a half years. However, bonus sites are included with your membership and cover a variety of categories, including Latinas Love Blacks, Bombay Bang, Ream And Scream, Amateur Big Naturals and Moms On Camera.
The Old Moms Anal action is good, but membership isn't really worth it considering the small collection. Don't expect the updates to resume any time soon. *Note: The trial is only available through SegPay.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

Kick-off is scheduled for 2 p.m.
Most game day activities will continue as planned. However, the "Meet the Lions" pep rally scheduled for Wednesday, Aug. 29, has been cancelled, though it may be re-scheduled for another time.

Talk of the Times with Peter J. Cosgrove: Roast of Butchie Bistocchi to benefit Northeast Regional Autism Center
This week, staff writer Patrice Wilding talks with Peter J. Cosgrove about the upcoming Roast of Butchie Bistocchi to benefit Northeast Regional Autism Center at Friendship House.
Residence: Dunmore
Family: Wife, Margo; children, Grace, Peter and Molly
Professional background: Former owner of Cosgrove's Clubhouse and Tavern; agent for Department of Revenue.
Title: Co-chairman along with Lenny Carlucci
Q: How did the idea for this fundraiser come about?
A: Six years ago, Lenny Carlucci came to me to talk about having a roast and he was looking for a charity to sponsor. I recommended respite care for parents/family of children with autism at Friendship House. This is near and dear to our family's heart because we have an autistic daughter, Molly. My wife, Margo, and I started a fundraiser about eight years ago which is called Springbreak for Autism, and gives respite relief for families who might need a break to spend time with their other children. The respite program is much-needed time that the family can spend together without having to hire a babysitter. It provides a safe, caring environment for your child with autism.
Q: How was Butchie Bistocchi chosen for this roast?
A: Butchie Bistocchi, who was co-owner of the famous Bistocchi's Restaurant, is the third person that has been roasted in this bi-annual event. Bistocchi's was one of the most well-known restaurants in the area for the last 50 years. The first person was Billy Kreis and second was Charles "Chick" Rader. We try to pick people that are colorful, well-known and family-oriented.
Q: What is included with the price of admission?
A: Appetizers, wine, beer and a ton of laughs.
Q: How many guests are you expecting?
A: Between 250 and 300 people.
Q: What is your fundraising goal?
A: Between $5,000 and $7,000.
Q: What is unique about the event?
A: It brings people from all walks of life together to share some funny stories and laughter and to raise money for a great cause.
If you go
What: Roast of Butchie Bistocchi to benefit Northeast Regional Autism Center at Friendship House
When: Friday, May 17, 7 p.m.
Where: La Buona Vita, 200 Reilly St., Dunmore
Details: Admission is $55 per person. Call 878-8611 or 561-3790. Contributions also may be mailed to Friendship House, with checks payable to Butchie Bistocchi Roast.

I started bi-modal commuting this year and it's so much fun and stress free ditching the I95 bumper to bumper traffic. Anyways it's getting to be really annoying with everyone asking tons of questions about the bike.
The weirdest was today when an older lady in her late 40s asked if she could touch my bike after saying it was really cool. She started rubbing my seat and the tubes slowly and thought she was going to.. yeah it was weird. Then came the question of how much it was. How do you guys answer this question on a train fully of sketchy people. My canned response is they start at a couple hundred dollars. This time I added "They start at a couple hundred dollards and go up to a couple thousand for some models". At that point about 4-5 people turned around and looked at my bike. I'm glad it was in the morning at not at night because they had that look like they wanted my bike
Most of the bikes on the trains are really beat and spray painted since they are either stolen or trying to prevent them form being stolen. Glad I don't need to lock mine anywhere as I just carry it everywhere when needed.

Hi, I am pregnant with my second child now, 11 weeks. I remember my first pregnancy I worried about every pain, every ache I was so scared of losing the baby. I can honestly tell you that every pregnancy is so different and sometimes a few aches and pains are completely normal. The best thing to do is not stress. If you feel in your heart that something doesn't feel right, like you are in severe pain or bleeding constantly, then just call your doctor, they will be more than happy to answer your questions. When I would get pains the best things for me to do was to drink some water and just lay down and rest for a few minutes. Just stay positive and I am sure everything will be fine:)posted 05/10/2012 by jason68
thank you yes i think it may have just been from being on my feet all day cause this morning i woke up and feel perfectly fine =) thanks again and congrats to uposted 05/10/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

Imagine a train engine that sends up blue steam! Really! Kids control the motion with a child-friendly radio controller that lets them activate the steam and send Thomas rolling backwards or forward. Thomas also chugs and whistles and says a few phrases. The steam is created with cold water - like a cold-water vaporizer; so there is no danger. It needs 4 AA batteries to run. 2 & up.
SNAP: As remote vehicles go, this is less complex than most. Yet, there is a sense of power to be gained as children gradually come to master and recall the buttons to push that make this little engine go. The magic of the blue smoke make this a toy that will wow a wider age range of players...probably even the grown ups in the room.

Dear Guests,
Dear Guests,
We are already one month into 2012, which is going to be an important year
as we begin to reap the fruits of our investments and undertake key initiatives for Turkish Airlines. It gives us great pleasure to come one step closer to our goal of becoming one of the world's best airlines.
Hosting 32 million passengers last year, Turkish Airlines aims to carry 38 million this year. We have planned an ambitious growth rate of 20 percent abroad and 17 percent overall. In a period of continuing uncertainty in Europe with talk of crisis scenarios, we are anticipating 30 percent growth in the Southern Europe and Africa regions. Our daily flights are going to exceed more than a thousand, and the growth strategy we plan to pursue despite a one percent growth forecast for the European market is going to be severely tested.
We currently fly to 189 destinations: 40 domestic and 149 abroad, a figure that puts us at 8th worldwide among the airlines serving the highest number of destinations. We are going to add a record number of new cities to our flight network again this year, including Mogadishu (Somalia), Buenos Aires (Argentina), Novosibirsk and Samara (Russia), Bilbao and La Coruna (Spain), Abidjan (Ivory Coast), Aalborg and Billund (Denmark), Bremen and Leipzig (Germany), Edinburgh (UK), Ulan Bator (Mongolia), Kinshasa (Congo), and Abuja and Kano (Nigeria). With a flight network expanded to include 16 new destinations, we intend to make serious progress towards transforming Istanbul into the region's most vital hub.
Dear Guests,
We are aware that 2012 is not going to be an easy year for the world economy. With stagnation currently plaguing Europe and ongoing growth not only in Turkey but in Asia, Africa and the Middle East means that players in the sector are going to turn to these markets. Yet another indication that a more competitive environment awaits us. However, we are strong enough to realize our ambitious growth targets despite the tough conditions as our successes in previous years sufficiently prove. The constant improvement in the quality of our service and our ability to offer competitive prices are the advantages that will get us ahead in these difficult markets. We will succeed at this against all odds thanks to a strict spending policy that calls into account even a single penny if it does not redound to the benefit of our passengers. Our utmost priority is to create the conditions that provide you to fly more safely, more comfortably and more conveniently. And I would like to reiterate that we are going to continue to work and plan with that in mind. Finally, hoping that 2012 brings you, our valuable passengers, health and happiness, I wish you all good travels and a pleasant flight.
Sincerely yours,

COACH LEVRETS: Really, really happy with our performance today. I thought our kids -- first half, we shot the ball really, really well - when you don't make as many shots, which we didn't in the second half but we continued to defend and rebound the next two well enough down the stretch and really, really pleased with our overall performance today.
Q. You hit 11 3s in the first half; any explanation in particular?
COACH LEVRETS: All year long, we thought the strength of this team is that we have really good post players, and we are not the most athletic team on the perimeter but we have the ability to make 3s and we went through a stretch there where we didn't shoot really well, but we think that's a big strength of this team. I was surprised when we didn't make them early in the year during that stretch, and you don't ever expect to make 11 out of 13 like that, just crazy. But we think we are a good shooting basketball team, when they double-team down inside with our bigs, they are both great passers. In that first half, it was Taryn that was doubled a bunch and she made the right read and we make an extra pass and moved the ball; we think we are a good shooting team.
Q. Taryn, you're a post player and obviously you didn't take many 3s. What was going through your mind when every three was going?
Taryn Wicijowski: I was getting pretty pumped because a lot of it was coming through me. Like they had small (ph) guarding me and they would bring another person to double-team off that. People were just wide open and just knocking down the wide open shots.
Q. Michelle, you told me earlier this week that the shots would have to fall in order to beat this team. How big was the basket for and you your teammates the first half? How big did it look?
Michelle Plouffe: I don't know, I think just once Rachel [Messer] or I just started hitting one, everyone got confidence. And then we just feed off each other on the court and feed off everybody's shots, so I think that really gave us momentum in the first half.
COACH LEVRETS: I don't think so, no. It was amazing. I knew we were making a lot and then I saw the stats and I couldn't believe it. You know, and it was everybody. But the key is, moving the basketball, and sharing the basketball and being willing to make an extra pass to a teammate and trusting your teammate is going to make the shot, and we were really -- we have improved at that a ton as the year has gone on.
Q. Talk about your defense on Davellyn [Whyte]. Tough assignment for any player.
COACH LEVRETS: Davellyn Whyte is as good of a guard as you're going to come across; she can flat play, and Iwa did a great job on her. I know she got 23 points, but she had to work for every single thing that she got. I think she was 6 for 18 from the floor. But a credit to Davellyn, too, as she did everything. I think she had eight rebounds and six assists; she's just a great player. Just as importantly as the defense on Davellyn was, everybody else guarding their person -- because Davellyn is going to score. You can't get the other people go big and that was the key. The kids did a great job with it.
Q. I don't know what the final free throw total was, but it wasn't much for Utah. Is that something you need to address going forward is getting to the foul line and slowing the tempo down when you're playing a team like UCLA who is a very talented group?
COACH LEVRETS: Yeah, maybe I need to yell at the officials more. (Chuckling). A lot of that was a product of them playing a lot of zone, so a lot of our stuff came from the perimeter, and there was not a lot of drives because it was against the zone, and so that's why we didn't have the free throw attempts tonight. We'll see how we get played tomorrow, and obviously we played through our bigs; and if it's man, we'll get it down there and we'll get to the free throw line more. I think this was more a product of how Arizona played than it was anything else.
Q. Besides getting 11 3-pointers in the first half, what do you guys need to do to beat UCLA?
COACH LEVRETS: I don't know yet. We are going to figure that out tonight. We have been really focused on this game, talking about one possession at a time, one play at a time, one minute at a time, one segment at a time, one game at a time, and now we'll worry about UCLA. The first time we played them we were kind of a mess. It was our fourth game on the road; we played Cal, Stanford, USC, UCLA back-to-back-to-back-to-back on the road without Taryn. So we were kind of a mess, and this will be a big challenge for us. But you know, we feel like we have a good team. We think we are playing pretty well right now, and we'll go put something together, a game plan together here tonight. And I don't know yet, I haven't even thought about it until 20 minutes ago.
Q. Five turnovers, a record -- that has to be pretty cool.
Taryn Wicijowski: I know for us, we always talk about turnovers, if we don't turn the ball over and we play good D, like we should have a really good chance to win, especially against this team. Like the last time we played them, we turned the ball over a lot and just gave them points. I think today, not turning the ball over and really making them work, have a lot of possessions and stuff like that, really helped us.
Michelle Plouffe: Yes, it's definitely something we addressed, to pass, and we did change it. So we had a good game plan and that helped us out getting the ball to the floor and then we were able to move the ball and play our offense without having to have -- inaudible - the backcourt.
Q. How nice was it to see Rachel Messer and Danielle Rodriguez chipping in? Obviously Rachel is a senior but Danielle a freshmen, being able to handle that stage and everyone played their roles.
COACH LEVRETS: Yeah, it was great.We talk about it all the time: When it's your turn,you've got to make shots. And everybody, the way they defended us, everybody had an opportunity tonight. And the thing that all those kids can do, every one of them in our program, is they can shoot the basketball. And when it's their turn, they have got to be able to step up and knock it down. When we do that, it's kind of fun to watch us play offensively. The ball moves really well and we played from inside out, it's kind of fun to watch and hopefully this will be a confidence-booster for us. I think we're playing with a lot of confidence now, anyway, and winning is fun. Win, and get to keep playing. Don't think about if you're lose, you done. If you win, you keep playing and that's what we're going to try to do tomorrow.
Q. What kind of problems does UCLA present?
COACH LEVRETS: Lots of problems, because they are really talented. But, so are we. And I think their bigs are stronger, athletic, they shoot it really well and they are good at inside and out. And defensively they can harass you in several different ways. Other than that, they are pretty easy to beat. (Laughter). I don't know yet what we are going to do. Early in the year when we played them, we were not in any -- not close to what we are right now defensively, so I think we'll -- it might be a really base game for us, might be a few things that we do differently but it will be a really base game defensively. And then we'll run what we run and see how they guard us and that's the great thing about being a motion team; you can run your stuff any night against any kind of defense and hopefully do different things based on how you're playing.
Q. What did you learn the first time you played UCLA?
COACH LEVRETS: That they are good.
Q. About your group.
COACH LEVRETS: Well, we battled. We were down 16-2 I think to start the game, and we beat USC the Friday night before; it was a noon game. It was just weird. And not having Taryn obviously was a huge piece for us. So that game was gone and over with, I don't even know if we'll use it as far as what we'll watch. We'll match more of what they have done lately. But we'll put something together. These kids, we have talented players. They are going to come out and compete tomorrow and I don't know what the outcome is going to be, but I know we are going to compete.


text: Fears for 200 jobs at utility firm 21 Feb 2014 Serious fears have been raised for the future of 200 jobs after one of Northern Ireland's biggest utility maintenance firms went into administration. Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast KPL Contracts entered administration on Friday despite decreasing debts and last minute efforts to restructure the organisation.The company, which has its headquarters in Dungiven, is one of the leading utilities specialists in Northern Ireland, laying cables and pipes.KPL directly employs over 200 people across Northern Ireland and a large number of sub-contractors, operating from depots throughout the region, installing and maintaining water and sewage, electricity, telecoms and public lighting facilities.In its last accounts it recorded a loss of almost £6.5m.Sinn Féin councillor Sean McGlinchey said his office has been contacted with sub-contractors who have claimed they are owed money.Mr McGlinchey also said many staff have told him they have not been working at the firm since Monday and are anxiously awaiting news about the firm's future.The firm was established in 1994 by Kevin Lynch and grew from working on telecommunications projects to road repairs.In 2011 it embarked on a large scale, long term housing project in Ballyclare.Commenting on the appointment of the administrator KPL managing director, Kevin Lynch, said: "For some time we have been in discussions with our lender in order to restructure the company to protect the core contracting business."Despite a restructure of the company's property debt before Christmas acute cashflow pressure has persisted."It is therefore with much regret that we have today sought the protection of administration."Joint administrator Stephen Cave, from PwC said: "Over the next few hours our priority will be to determine the company's precise financial position and assess future options."A number of key contracts are operated by the company and, with the help of the directors, we are in continued discussions with these customers to see how we might work together to facilitate their immediate requirements."The outcome of these actions will determine our next steps." © UTV Share Share Share

Gains hands on experience in their field through internships, co-ops, other avenues.
Sam Costigan, Micahel Feliz and Connor Morales engineering majors, designed and built a table top touch screen computer.
Rosana Abeyta-Torres talks about her experience interning at Dameron in physical therapy.
My name is Rosana Abeyta-Torres. I am in my third year at Pacific studying Sports Medicine. I aspire to become a physical therapist and will be applying to physical therapy graduate schools in the fall. Last semester I had the opportunity to observe in the outpatient and inpatient physical therapy at Dameron Hospital as part of the course Clinician in Sports Medicine (SPTS 157). I completed 35.5 hours in the outpatient clinic and 70 hours in the acute care inpatient setting in the hospital. I experienced the different aspects of physical therapy and saw a variety of cases in both settings. I also observed some occupational therapy. I was able to experience and analyze the differences between inpatient and outpatient physical therapy care and treatment. I shadowed the physical therapists and physical therapist assistants as they performed evaluations or routine physical therapy sessions. They would explain to me what they were doing, and taught me several things. I was limited to merely observing the therapists since I'm only an undergraduate without a degree or much training. However, after awhile I was able to perform ultrasound and place the electrical stimulation on some of the patients in the outpatient clinic.
I saw more severe cases in the hospital than in the outpatient clinic. I got to experience therapy for patients in ICU and CCU. I learned the differences in therapy techniques and how the goals differ for each setting. After observing in both settings I realized that I prefer outpatient physical therapy and want to work in an outpatient clinic if possible. With inpatient physical therapy you only see the patient for a couple of days usually, and the main goal is to improve functionality so they can leave the hospital and return home or go to a skilled nursing facility. For some patients it is a big improvement just to be able to sit on the edge of the bed. Whereas, with outpatient you would normally see the patient for at least 4-6 weeks, and therefore can have more long terms goals. I like this setting better because you have more of a chance of actually helping the patient progress from the beginning until hopefully resolution of symptoms. Part of the reason why I initially decided to go into physical therapy was because I like the idea of helping people through physical activity, and I think it would be more rewarding for me if I were able to see the patient progress throughout the whole treatment program rather than just get them ready to be sent home or to a rehabilitation facility. I enjoyed observing in both settings, and after observing for two and a half months, I have refined my career preferences and have a new insight into the profession.

Zach Braff Responds To Those Who Hated His Kickstarter Campaign
By Sean O'Connell 2013-05-09 10:10:04 comments
Actor-director Zach Braff took a beating recently when he turned to Kickstarter to get a possible directorial project, Wish I Was Here, off the ground. Without warning (and perhaps unfairly), Braff became the scapegoat for celebrities with an undetermined amount of money who dare to appeal to fans in search of funding for pet projects. So Braff did what he normally does he took to the Web to explain himself and answer his critics directly.
The above clip shared on KickstartedMovie looks like an official piece those who earn KS money do. Braff answers questions about his KS campaign, and in the process, addresses rumors that immediately swirled following the launch of the campaign.
Gradually, Braff gets defensive about his use of the Internet and his reliance on KS to get his next movie funded. He admits that in addition to the $2 million earned on KS, he will be kicking in an ass-ton of my own money. He defends his ability to engage his fanbase through social media and Reddit. Its a conversation, he explains, and he backs up his claims, reminding people via this video that he has been doing it since Garden State and The Last Kiss. Braff has been plugged in to his community of fans, and he uses this clip to reiterate this fact.
Fast-forward to the 10-minute mark to get the point of the clip. Braff basically explains that he feels like he has created a club of like-minded people. If you hate him, this club isnt for you (obviously). But if you buy into Braffs humor and his storytelling methods, which have been on display in Scrubs and Garden State, then hes trying to continue to do unique and exciting things that will appeal to your sensibilities. Braff doesnt really solve the debate over whether moderately successful celebrities should lean on KS. But he makes a convincing argument for his own popularity, and thats refreshing.

New London — Police arrested a Norwich man who they say fired a gun Tuesday afternoon in the area of 424 Williams St.
Jamel J. McIntosh, 36, was charged with criminal attempt to commit first-degree assault, criminal possession of a firearm, altering a serial number on a firearm, first-degree reckless endangerment, unlawful discharge of a firearm, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony and carrying a pistol without a permit.
He was held overnight and presented Wednesday for arraignment in New London Superior Court, where Judge Stuart M. Schimelman set his bond at $250,000 and continued the case to July 2.
Police said they were called out at 3:42 p.m. Tuesday to investigate reports of gunfire in the area of Cole and Bragaw streets. Officers spoke with the intended victim, Jesus Pintero, who told them he had been standing near the Universal Food Store talking with a woman and her 7-year-old son when a man he didn't know came up to him and said, "Yo dude. Come here."
Pintero said he "shrugged off" the man, heard a gunshot and, fearing for his life, fled on his moped. The female witness said Pintero was "kind of ignoring" the man when the man pulled a gun and fired it at Pintero. She fled with her son.
The motive for the shooting has not yet been determined, according to Deputy Chief Peter Reichard, who said detectives were trying to establish a possible link between the victim and the shooter.
Investigators retrieved video footage of the shooting captured by surveillance cameras at Hodges Square Wine & Spirits and developed other information that helped them identify McIntosh as a suspect, according to an incident report. They also recovered a .45 caliber shell casing from the store owner.
The cameras captured the suspect pointing a silver metallic gun at the victim and firing a shot in his direction, according to the report. The suspect placed the gun in his right front pocket and walked out of view of the camera, according to the report.
Police were able to track McIntosh's whereabouts because he was on probation and wearing a GPS ankle monitor. He had been sentenced in February 2011 to four years in prison, suspended after 18 months served, followed by two years probation for numerous criminal charges, including possession of narcotics, third-degree assault and violation of a protective order.
Probation Officer Michael Connell told investigators the coordinates showed that McIntosh was in the area of Williams and Bragaw streets at the time of the shooting and later that he was in the area of Wausau Place.
Hours after the shooting, officers flooded Wausau Place and captured him as he attempted to flee out the back door of 9 Wausau Place, according to the report. They recovered a Bersa Thunder .45-caliber pistol in the freezer of a tenant's home.
The police also arrested Jerome Hudson, 24, of 12 W. High St., New London, after he fled from the Wausau Place apartment, fought with Detectives Matthew Galante and Frank Jarvis, injuring both of them as they attempted to detain him, and ran through a stranger's Bank Street apartment in his attempt to escape, according to an incident report.
The detectives both suffered minor injuries and were back on the job Wednesday, according to the deputy chief. Reichard said it appears Hudson just happened to be at the Wausau Place location when police went there looking for McIntosh.
Hudson ran through several backyards and was spotted running into an alley off Bank Street, according to the incident report. A man who lives at 525 Bank St. said he was sitting at his computer desk when Hudson burst in, begged the tenant to hide him and offered money. The man said he grabbed Hudson, who pushed him off. The man then ran out of the apartment and met police in the hallway. The police searched the apartment and found an open window with the screen pushed out.
Patrolman Russell MacDonald captured Hudson a short time later in the parking behind 668 Bank St. with 10 grams of marijuana packaged for sale and $432 in cash, according to the report. The officers later found an additional $100 they said Hudson had dropped in a puddle in the alley. He was charged with interfering with an officer, two counts of assault on a police officer, second-degree burglary, third-degree criminal trespass, second-degree breach of peace, sale of a controlled substance and possession of a controlled substance within 1,500 feet of a school.
Hudson was held overnight and presented in court Wednesday, where Judge Schimelman set his bond at $75,000. Hudson posted bond a short time later and left the courthouse in his socks, saying he had worn out his shoes. His next court date is July 1.

The Detroit Lions have released wide receiver Titus Young, a second round draft pick from 2011. Mike Florio says the Lions will have to wait and see if cutting Young will be the wakeup call he needs to go elsewhere and become a great player, much like what happened with Jacoby Jones in Baltimore after he was released by Houston. To release Young, Florio thinks the Lions came to the conclusion that nothing would get through to the wide receiver.

I'm finding it bit confusing to determine which tag to put for post. I faced this problem when I posted my first query in WP.SE.
As I was new to that site, I didn't know which would be the most appropriate and most followed tag. Thanks to some of the fellow users over there, who edited and put correct tags, I was introduced to some popular tags.
Attaching the most popular tag gives maximum exposure to our post, right?
As I start typing the first letters in the tags field, matching tags pop up, which is great indeed, but this comes handy only if I know what to type.
So my question is, is there a place where I could see all the tags used in that site (StackExchange domain) with their follower count?
