It is never too late to change a habit. A habit is a habit is a habit - correct? The 21-Day Vegan Challenge has certainly proven me that if you break that habit (be it anything at all) and give yourself time to adapt (21-30 days), you will succeed. "I could never give up cheese", I used to say. "I only really eat a little bit of dairy", was my other excuse. Now, after over two dairy-free months, I feel no need or urge to eat dairy and I think this feeling is even stronger after finally opening my eyes to all that goes on in the dairy industry (not to mention the egg industry!). I strongly believe that certain things only happen when the time is right. Be it career, dietary or lifestyle, the change will happen when you are ready for it. Being vegan finally feels right for me, and like so many other vegetarians, the transformation into a vegan feels natural.
If I can single out one person that has greatly inspired me throughout this transformation, I would have to give the credit to Colleen Patrick-Goudreau. Her tireless work to promote animal rights, veganism and compassionate living is truly inspirational and I am so thankful for all the work that she does to educate, motivate and encourage people, not to mention all the wonderful work that she does for the animals too, of course.
This recipe is inspired by Colleen and I think this salad is a great example how nourishing and delicious vegan food can be. I do encourage you to invest in 100% soba (buckwheat) noodles, since they have superior taste and texture to those with only a small amount of buckwheat flour in them. I am not a fan of wheat noodles, but these I am more than happy devour. Enjoy!
Soba Salad
(Recipe inspired by Colleen)
1 packet 100% soba noodles
2 carrots, julienned
1 scallion/green shallot, finely sliced
1 small red capsicum, finely sliced
3-4 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
2 tablespoons sesame oil (cold pressed, this isn't as strong tasting!)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon tamari or Bragg's all purpose seasoning
pinch of chilli flakes
1. Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions, about 6-8 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
2. Combine the noodles, carrots, green shallot, capsicum and sesame seeds in a bowl. Toss to mix.
3. Combine the sesame oil, apple cider vinegar, tamari and chilli in a small bowl and whisk to combine. Add the dressing into the noodles and toss to mix.
I am planning to do more posts on vegan foods and vegan living in the near future, but in the mean while, please take a moment to browse through Colleen's website and especially her podcasts and videos.

WHEN the legal stoush between Clive Palmer and his Chinese iron ore partners hits court, the highly paid lawyers will spend much time debating a single word: ''taken''.
That word is at the centre of a dispute that has escalated in recent weeks as Mr Palmer seeks to finally get his hands on royalties from the desperately overdue $8 billion ''Sino Iron'' project.
Chinese company CITIC Pacific struck a deal in 2006 with Mr Palmer's private company, Mineralogy, that allowed CITIC to develop a big mine, processing and export precinct on Pilbara tenements held by Mr Palmer.
Under the deal, royalties would flow to Mr Palmer based on the volumes of ore ''taken'' for Sino Iron, and a second component based on volumes of magnetite concentrate produced.
The current dispute centres on the first component, with Mr Palmer arguing that ore has already been ''taken'' from the ground, while CITIC argues the ore is not technically ''taken'' until it has passed through the crusher on site.
The 2006 document does not contain a definition of ''taken'', meaning the word will be open to interpretation in court.
A photograph taken in August showed there was significant activity within the iron ore mine attached to Sino Iron.
But sources close to CITIC argue it is still under construction and not technically in a mining phase.
Further, the CITIC sources say Mr Palmer's claim seeks payments dating as far back as 2008, long before there was anything resembling an iron ore mine on site.
Mr Palmer could not be reached on Tuesday night to verify the 2008 claim, but his advisers say he is confident that his claim is supported by simple logic.
CITIC filed an injunction with the WA Supreme Court on Monday in a bid to prevent Mr Palmer from terminating the lease and mining right agreements.
Sino Iron is more than two years behind schedule, meaning Mr Palmer has been forced to wait much longer than expected for the royalty streams to start.
But under the terms of the 2006 deal, Mr Palmer appears guaranteed some sort of payment within five months irrespective of the current debate over the word ''taken''.
The contract contained an extra clause that guaranteed penalty payments to Mr Palmer if Sino Iron had not produced 6 million tonnes of magnetite concentrate by March 21, 2013.
That target appears virtually impossible, given that the first trickles of trial concentrate were only seen within recent days.
Assuming the target is missed, CITIC must pay Mr Palmer ''an amount equivalent to the royalty payable on the 6 million tonnes''.
That amount was estimated to be $US42 million based on 2005 iron ore prices of about $US62 a tonne.
The benchmark iron ore price was on Tuesday just under $US123 a tonne.

Robert Frost's highly accessible poetry--filled with the everyday sights and sounds of rural New England and conveyed in a down-to-earth voice--won him many accolades and devoted readers in his lifetime and has made him a favorite in and out of the classroom ever since.
After his death, however, the poet's image as a grandfatherly farmer-sage was upended by his unsympathetic hand-picked biographer, Lawrance Thompson, who painted Frost as a heartless egotist. This "monster myth" has persisted, despite occasional attempts by scholars to offer a more objective perspective.
With the recent publication of the first of four volumes of a new collection of Frost's personal correspondence, the celebrated poet's muddled reputation may finally be getting a humanizing facelift. Many of the included letters to family, friends, and colleagues have never before been seen by the public, and some (like those discovered in a desk donated to a New Hampshire thrift shop) are new even to devoted Frost scholars, who look forward to gaining a more complete, nuanced picture of the poet as a human being.
Frost consciously kept his personal life out of the public eye, so even modern readers might be surprised to learn a few things about the author of "Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening"* and "Mending Wall."*
For instance, did you know that Frost…

I have posted this question to the Wordpress forums and got the following answer: http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/10/14/borders-pt-1/
I thought I understood what was being said here but nothing seemed to work. I asked again and so far nothing. I have always used the

 code on my website without problems. It does not in Wordpress. Any suggestions on how to place a box or border around a particular paragraph? Thanks...
My blog is http://www.stoutstandards.wordpress.com
It should be a simple matter of choosing the right selector to use with your CSSIs this what you're wanting to style - all of them?

John Howland offers up a few ideas on how something like the  PAS might work here in the states.
I would love it of course, but have pretty much given up hope of seeing something like this in my lifetime.
It would take a lot of money, effort and interest, all missing ingredients here in the states.
I hope you will take the time to read John's thoughts.
Perhaps down the road someone will take up the mantle and make it happen.
 Continue reading →
Thanks but that didn't work either.
What CSS did you try? i.e. the selector and rule(s)
I have tried any. Since I upgraded to their customized program a lot of CSS is already there. What do you suggest? I can add.
If you target the p tag you're likely to affecting a lot more than you want to.I'd try adding
/* custom style added 2014-02-05 */
div.entry p {
border: 1px solid #ff00ff;
padding: 1.2em;
just to see if that's getting to what you want. If it gets what you want and doesn't affect things you want it not to, adjust the values and you should be all set.
Barnum, if you can post a copy of a paragraph from your blog, we can be specific, otherwise, we can only give approximate guesses.
One can add a border around a box with the "border" property:
border:2px solid #f00;
The box can be a  cell, a
 paragraph tag, a
 or most anything else.eg:
td.thiscell {border:2px solid #f00;}
p.thisparagraph {border:2px solid #f00;}
div.thisbox {border:2px solid #f00;}
The class is used to target a particular box.
Are you using the paid version of wordpress.com which allows styling? Otherwise it may not work. I got around that problem by using inline styles.
It will depend on your theme.
the quick BAND-AID solution, assuming you only qant to style a SPECIFIC P , in a specific story.. is to go to your WP dashboard, where you edit the story , and select the HTML view and find te P you wanted to style then add the code inline:

...

<p style="border:10px solid pink"> ...

...

you could also use the CSS/ theme editor but you would need to know a pattern to set that paragraph apart ( example, the 3rd paragraph in the first story of a multi story blog)
hope that helps
Thank you all. This is the page where I want to add a paragraph border (actually two or three paragraphs)...starts with "A Warsaw Wally Update" and ends with"cavelier with their finds". Hope that makes sense.
I think you forgot to include a link to the page
Hah, I did. Sorry, senility is setting in. Thank you for setting me straight. Let's try this..
Hi, Barnum.
Basically, you need to put a container around those paragraphs. In other words, they need to be inside a parent
. Then you can give that parent div a border and some padding and you'll be all set.
Insert a close div below line 236

Insert an open div above Line 223

It should look something like this:

A WARSAW WALLY UPDATE FROM JOHN

Wednesday, 29 January 2014; From Paul Barford?s Blog

What he?d have the World Believe: (complete with Barfordese spelling)

Metal Detecting Looter Caught in Calabria.

Police on Tuesday arrested a 34-year-old man as he was trying to abscond with artifacts from Capo Colonna Archaeological Park near Crotone?.

Read more at: The Achaeology News Network, 29th January 2014.

Posted by Paul Barford at 12:57 No comments: Links to this post

??????????????????..

What ACTUALLY Happened:-

The Archaeology News Network reported the facts thus:

The would-be robber, who was identified by the initials I.F., was caught by a metal detector [my highlights] as he attempted to leave the 30,000-square-meter-park on a promontory overlooking the Tarentine Gulf with his loot.

??????????????????..

The factual ineptitude of Barford?s Blog is only surpassed by his unique spelling; further proof, if further proof were needed, that his lame-brained Blog can only pump out 24-carat twaddle!

This type of calculated deceit apparently supported by the Council for British Archaeology because of their hand-in-blouse, heavy petting sessions with the Warsaw Warbler, somewhat negates their wild claims ? and his – that metal detectorists are cavalier with their finds.

You can change the width, style, and color of the border to suit yourself. You can even give it rounded corners, if you wish, by adding {border-radius:16px} in the open div code.
DO NOT Copy and Paste that last selection of code into your page. Some of the characters were changed by my editor. See the question marks? Just insert the blue lines as shown.
Thank you so much...it worked very nicely. I could have sworn that I did something similar but then again I can't remember what I had for breakfast. Many thanks...appreciate it. Now I can do this with future updates.
Glad it's working the way you wish, Barnum. Thanks for the feedback.

A TIGHT hamstring is never a good omen for an ageing champion leading into a showdown for the No. 1 Test ranking, but Australia is confident Ricky Ponting will be fit to face South Africa in the first Test at the Gabba from Friday.
Cricket Australia said it was being ultra-cautious in pulling the 37-year-old Ponting out of Tasmania's Sheffield Shield game in Hobart, but the injury scare delivered a sharp reminder of the team's reliance on Ponting, and the lack of batsmen lining up to replace him.
News of Ponting's sore thigh emerged on a dreadful day for Australian cricket, when exciting pace star Pat Cummins succumbed to a season-ending injury and the Test batsmen flopped in domestic games.
Team performance manager Pat Howard said Ponting would have played on for the Tigers had there not been a Test to prepare for.
''This is a precautionary move to ensure Ricky has the best possible preparation for the first Test against South Africa in Brisbane next week,'' Howard said. ''We've opted to withdraw Ricky from the game. If this wasn't a week out from the first Test then Ricky would continue with the match, but we don't want to take that risk.
''We expect Ricky to be fit for the first Test against South Africa.''
In a sign of the confidence in Ponting's powers of recovery, no batsman has been placed on standby.
Nor, worryingly, is there a clear replacement if the Tasmanian is unable to face Dale Steyn and company. George Bailey is regarded highly, Phillip Hughes has been in form for South Australia and Rob Quiney excelled against the Proteas for Australia A on Friday.
Ponting's early-season form suggests he is as motivated as ever and his reputation as one of the team's most diligent trainers indicates he will do everything possible to be ready.
Although the former captain was out for five in the first innings against the Redbacks, he is coming off unbeaten scores of 162 and 60 against a Victorian attack featuring Test pacemen Peter Siddle and James Pattinson.
The South Africa series looms as the crucial battle if Ponting is to fulfil his ambition to play through back-to-back Ashes contests next year.

Where have all the characters gone? We used to have so many, the good doctor despaired as we made our way around the Carroll Country Club with our friend David Wunschel, now living in Washington State, one morning a few years ago.
"We don't have the characters," Donovan said, when I called him this week to discuss his earlier comments. "You go to a meeting now, and you just know it's going to be blah."
Donovan's comment on the course emerged after I talked of the magnificently eccentric characters I worked with and for at the country club back in the 1980s — supremely entertaining people who were quick with one-liners and wildly amusing (and often prescient) views on everything from politics to how to manage a second marriage to the best way to cure a hangover.
While a student at Carroll High School, at age 16 and 17, I had the privilege of working for golf professional Bobby Deevers as a bag boy at the club. I'd clean bags full of clubs after members were done playing, help with tee times and generally absorb an atmosphere that's lifted, a forever-gone festive fog.
Deevers taught customer service like we were in the antebellum South. The members are always, always right. Men are "sir," and women are "ma'am" — and that goes double if you are related to them, said Deevers, who has since passed, leaving me with one of the more challenging obituaries I've ever written. I loved that man.
He had these great Southern-fried isms, like, "Go catch ye a rope." Translation: use a right-to-left wind to maximize distance on your tee shots.
Donovan, 82, and a still-practicing chiropractor, has lived in Carroll for 56 years.
Bottom line: Past generations, he said, were more full of color. And so was life in Carroll.
Today, a wave of conformity, fed by the politically correct left and the churchy right and a box-store commercialism, has swept us over.
"Everybody lives in a comfort zone for some reason or another," Donovan said. "Everybody's covering their rear."
Of course, some of the stories of these days-gone-by involve some people perhaps having more than a few drinks from time to time. But to connect this observation to a diminishing bar count and healthier attitudes about alcohol consumption is to miss the point altogether.
We are bombarded with information. It cascades from our 200-channel cable or satellite TVs and flows 24/7 from our computers. There's more fodder. But people, counter-intuitively, have less to say than in the days about which Donovan is talking, fewer really clever or original thoughts.
People just aren't thinking outside of the box, Donovan observed.
Some of this loss, Donovan said, is no doubt connected to changing roles of parents. Often, in two-parent homes, both are working, meaning there is less time for civic organizations and social activity, both of which used to thrive at a level we don't see now in Carroll.
At the end of the day, so many of these town characters were leaders in ways large and small in Carroll.
"We had just so many almost patriarchs," Donovan said. "You could count on them for just about anything."

"Macarons" he said and she thought again that it was a silly password, considering. "Mr. Bond" she said, passing him a cookie tin."I hope that Mother approves of these new flavors" although she really didn't care. The only reason she took this assignment was because she wanted to meet James Bond. Then she handed him a large case marked "Fragile- Medical Samples". Giving him a smile full of mischief she assured him that the case was lead lined. If he checked it through on his flight home, M should receive the macarons inside in perfect shape, as planned.
"So what is in the tin" he asked?
"Ah, I thought you might enjoy a little snack while you wait for your flight." The tin had macarons identical to those in the case. "Don't let those women in the shops have any, though...some of them are spies." He admired the curves of her apron and wondered how one could tell.
"So where is my French kiss?" he asked. She pointed to the tin of macarons, although she wouldn't have minded being kissed by the legendary Bond. Too bad he was married now.
With a sgh she turned and walked away.
"Agent Mimi" he called. She looked back over her shoulder. "Nice backside" he said, but she smiled again, then ignored him and kept walking until the darkness swallowed her up.
He would never know how little effort had gone into making those macarons. The cookies were simple...egg whites, ground almonds, confectioners and granulated sugars and flavorings. Oven time had taken most of the time needed, although piping the batter required patience.
The fillings had taken more effort, but were still easy. The results had been classic...crisp thin shells on the outside hid moist, chewy insides and the flavors of the fillings tied it all together...the macarons even had the requisite "feet".
The flavors? A return to classic vanilla macarons and semisweet chocolate ganache filling for half
and a fall medley of cinnamon macarons paired with a cream cheese and maple and apple filling for the other half of the batter.
She knew that if Mr. Bond had been given the combination to open the "medical samples" case that M would have found there were only crumbs left for whatever she needed the macarons for. Good thing that he had been effectively distracted by her apron and never requested a combination. With another tiny smile, she entered the bakery where she worked.
The 2009 October Daring Bakers' challenge was brought to us by Ami S. She chose macarons from Claudia Fleming's The Last Course: The Desserts of Gramercy Tavern as the challenge recipe.
(Elle's Note:I followed the recipe, but divided the batter in half. Half received vanilla extract. The other half received 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon. I tried to pipe regular amounts of the batter, but some were a little smaller or larger than others, so I matched similar sizes once the cookies had cooled and lined them up that way before filling so that I could put the top cookie on as soon as I piped the filling on the bottom cookies.)
The vanilla and chocolate combination was classic and delicious, but both Sweetie and I enjoyed the cinnamon -maple-apple-spice ones even more. They were so good that I'm going to make more just so I can try different flavors. Thank you Ami for choosing such a great challenge recipe!
As usual, there are many, many dozens of Daring Bakers around the globe who have created stunning macarons for you to view. The blogroll can be accessed through this link.
Thank you also goes to a long time baking buddy and very experienced and creative Daring Baker, Dharm of Dad~Baker and Chef. His vision of the airport in the Land of St. Honore' is referenced in the tale that begins this post- it really is fiction even if the macarons are real.
Preparation time: Not taking into account the amount of time it takes for you to bring your egg whites to room temperature, the whole baking process, including making the batter, piping and baking will probably take you about an hour to an hour and a half. How long it takes to make your filling is dependent on what you choose to make.
Actual baking time: 12 minutes total, plus a few minutes to get your oven from 200°F to 375°F.
(Elle's Note - I baked one sheet at a time, so the baking time was extended to allow for the oven to heat up and cool off for each sheet.)
Equipment required:
• Electric mixer, preferably a stand mixer with a whisk attachment
• Rubber spatula
• Baking sheets
• Parchment paper or nonstick liners
• Pastry bag (can be disposable)
• Plain half-inch pastry bag tip
• Sifter or sieve
• If you don't have a pastry bag and/or tips, you can use a Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off
• Oven
• Cooling rack
• Thin-bladed spatula for removing the macaroons from the baking sheets
• Food processor or nut grinder, if grinding your own nuts (ouch!)
Confectioners' (Icing) sugar: 2 ¼ cups (225 g, 8 oz.)
Almond flour: 2 cups (190 g, 6.7 oz.)
Granulated sugar: 2 tablespoons (25 g , .88 oz.)
Egg whites: 5 (Have at room temperature)
1. Preheat the oven to 200°F (93°C). Combine the confectioners' sugar and almond flour in a medium bowl. If grinding your own nuts, combine nuts and a cup of confectioners' sugar in the bowl of a food processor and grind until nuts are very fine and powdery.
2. Beat the egg whites in the clean dry bowl of a stand mixer until they hold soft peaks. Slowly add the granulated sugar and beat until the mixture holds stiff peaks.
3. Sift a third of the almond flour mixture into the meringue and fold gently to combine. If you are planning on adding zest or other flavorings to the batter, now is the time. Sift in the remaining almond flour in two batches. Be gentle! Don't overfold, but fully incorporate your ingredients.
4. Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a plain half-inch tip (Ateco #806). You can also use a Ziploc bag with a corner cut off. It's easiest to fill your bag if you stand it up in a tall glass and fold the top down before spooning in the batter.
(As you can see, I sprinkled a little cinnamon over the piped cinnamon batter rounds.)
5. Pipe one-inch-sized (2.5 cm) mounds of batter onto baking sheets lined with nonstick liners (or parchment paper).
6. Bake the macaroon for 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and raise the temperature to 375°F (190°C). Once the oven is up to temperature, put the pans back in the oven and bake for an additional 7 to 8 minutes, or lightly colored.
7. Cool on a rack before filling.
Yield: 10 dozen. Ami's note: My yield was much smaller than this. I produced about two dozen filled macaroons.
Semisweet Chocolate Ganache Filling
Heat ¼ cup heavy cream in the microwave 1 minute on high power. Remove bowl from microwave and add 2 oz. of semisweet excellent quality chocolate that has been chopped finely. Stir with a small spatula, very gently, until chocolate melts and thoroughly combined. Avoid adding extra air.
Let cool 2-3 minutes, then put into a pastry bag and pipe about ½ tablespoon on half of the macarons on the flat side. Top with the other half of the macarons, rounded side up. Let the ganache firm up before serving.
Makes enough to fill half of the batch of macarons in the Daring Baker's recipe.
Cream Cheese Maple Apple Filling
2 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
3 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
1 tablespoon sour cream or plain yogurt
1-2 teaspoon(s) juices from Maple Apples (below)
OR 2 teaspoons maple syrup and a dash of cinnamon
½ cup confectioner's sugar
Cream the butter, cream cheese, and sour cream until fluffy (I used a whisk attachment and my stand mixer). Add the maple apple juices or the maple syrup and cinnamon, Beat until well combined.
Beat in the confectioner's sugar until completely combined.
Place the filling in a pastry bag and pipe about ½ tablespoon on half of the macarons on the flat side. Top with the other half of the macarons, rounded side up. This filling won't harden, so serve it as soon as you wish.
Makes enough to fill half of the batch of macarons in the Daring Baker's recipe plus about a cup left over for another use.
Maple Apples
3 medium apples, cores and stems removed, chopped
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
dash allspice
dash nutmeg
dash cloves
1 tablespoon water
Place all the ingredients in a saucepan. Stir to combine well. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Let cool. Use the juices to flavor the filling and use the fruit as a fruit compote with ice cream or over cooked cereal, pancakes, or waffles.

Larger contrasts to exclusive store
Rizzo is an exclusive shoe and- accessories brand situated in on one of the busiest streets in the centre of Gothenburg, Sweden. The lighting solution was planned and delivered by Fagerhult.
A lighting that would match the dark interior and exclusiveness of the store was requested. The fine interior combined with the black accentuating lighting created a trendy store environment that complemented the exclusive brand image in a perfect way.
Decorative décor frames was placed around two recessed ZoneSingle luminaires in black to create a more unique lighting design. The black luminaires in the white ceiling combined with the black interior gave a nice impression and brought larger contrasts in the shop. Now the ceiling got a more characteristic appearance.
Highlighting product
The ZoneSingle luminaires were aimed at the products highlighting them in a delicate way. One of the two luminaire was equipped with a narrow reflector and the other with a mediumsized reflector which created a more dynamic result.
Small and stylish luminaire Sinus
In the shop windows the small and stylish luminaire Sinus HCI in chrome was installed to illuminate the accessories and shoes. The low ceiling height made the petite Sinus HCI 20W a perfect choice.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 18/10/2013 (1405 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Just when it seemed like the hockey gods really had it in for the Winnipeg Jets -- and we're talking storm clouds gathering for a nasty window-rattling shaker -- the skies cleared and a teeny-tiny bit of sun shone down on the local shinny side.
Yes, in a game in which the Jets fell behind 3-1 and were shaken by the scene of promising young defenceman Jacob Trouba taken from the ice on a stretcher, they somehow found another gear for a late rally and, ultimately, a thrilling 4-3 shootout victory over Stanley Cup contender St. Louis Blues.
As a result, the emotion at the MTS Centre was all over the charts, spiking and dipping with some dramatic highs and lows. The win stops an ugly run that had seen the Jets lose four of their last five after opening the season 2-0 and improves their record to 4-4.
It also started an important run of six of seven games against Central Division opponents with a bang.
"It was a good win against a good team," said Jets centre Bryan Little. "Hopefully that gives us some confidence, and that's been lacking lately, that confidence in our game. We've got to believe we can beat teams like this on a nightly basis. This is a great game for us to come back and win.
"There's some things that didn't exactly go our way -- a couple of mistakes and the puck was in our net. But, overall, I thought we showed a lot of character coming back like that. It shows our commitment to winning."
Trouba, who has been such a shining light to start the season, was taken from the ice on a stretcher early in the second period after crashing into the end boards while trying to hit Blues' forward Jordan Leopold behind the St. Louis net. The building was eerily quiet for several minutes while the 19-year-old defenceman was placed onto a spinal board, then erupted when he gave the thumbs-up as he was taken from the ice.
The Jets said Trouba was taken to the hospital for X-rays and was alert, communicating and moving all his limbs.
"Something like this, it seems like you see it almost every day," said Jets' goaltender Ondrej Pavelec. "It was no fun at all. It was tough to focus, but we handled it pretty well. We knew pretty much right away that it wasn't going to be something serious and he was going to be fine. That's great news."
"Trouba is still getting evaluated, but he's good," said head coach Claude Noel. "He's just getting tested, but I think everything's fine."
The Jets finished the game with just four defenceman -- Zach Bogosian, Grant Clitsome, Toby Enstrom and the game's first star, Dustin Byfuglien -- as Mark Stuart also exited with an undisclosed injury.
The Jets have been blathering on ad nauseum all week about the importance of posting a solid opening period. And while there were stretches in the first 20 minutes where the home side had some oomph, the first period stats were revealing: Not only were they down 2-1 after two horrible miscues by Clitsome and Trouba that led to goals by David Backes and Alex Steen, they were guilty of six turnovers to the Blues' one, were losing in the faceoff circle and had been outshot 11-9.
Claude Noel rattled some cages, sending Devin Setoguchi, Eric Tangradi and Paul Postma to the press box to give Clitsome, Anthony Peluso and Patrice Cormier a look, and then benched Evander Kane for about 10 minutes in the second after he had taken three minor penalties.
The Jets were down 3-1 with less than seven minutes left when Kane pulled the club to within one with his fourth goal of the season. And with just 1:54 left, Enstrom tied it with a blast for his first marker of the year.
The shootout included seven rounds and featured 14 shooters, with Andrew Ladd, Little and Olli Jokinen scoring for the Jets while Pavelec stopped the last five shooters he faced.
"It feels good to win a game like that," said Bogosian. "We battled hard. They're a good team that plays a really solid team game, and I thought we matched their intensity well and we were a lot more physical than in previous games."

Utah State University's College of Agriculture will host its sixth annual Chili Cook-Off Jan. 26 at 5 p.m. in the Junction on USU's Logan campus.
The College of Agriculture has held the event for the past six years with the objective of providing a fun, inexpensive and family-friendly event for the community. This year the Chili Cook-Off plans to continue the tradition and will feature the music of local band, Sagawich Basin Boys, in addition to the samples of homemade chili.
Cost for this year's event is $3 per person at the door, and all proceeds will be donated to the Cache Valley Community Food Pantry. Those attending the cook-off are asked to bring a muffin tin for convenience to hold the cups of chili.
Prizes will be awarded for first, second and third place. New this year, each department from the College of Agriculture will have the opportunity to win a traveling trophy presented to the best chili from a College of Agriculture department.

Amazing Teen Sounds Exactly Like Elvis Presley Singing 'Blue Christmas'
Elvis Presley passed away in 1977, but his music lives on in an amazing video that has gone viral since it was first released online Monday (Dec. 9).
16-year-old David Thibault was recorded performing the Presley Christmas classic at Quebec radio station CKOI, a French language Top 40 station. But there's no trace of any accent as the talented teen delivers a flawless vocal rendition that sounds hauntingly like the departed King of Rock and Roll.
So much so, in fact, that some online posters have called the veracity of the performance into question — a question that is put to rest when Thibault slips on the guitar, resulting in an audible mistake that couldn't have been faked.
Listen to Thibault's performance above. If you close your eyes, it's easy to forget you're hearing a teenage kid, and imagine it's the King himself.
The video has been viewed more than 2 million times since Monday.

Column: Republicans dug their own hole with Latinos
SAN DIEGO -- After years of lecturing us about not making excuses and taking responsibilities for our actions, Republicans are now playing the victim. They claim they're getting a bad rap as being hostile to immigrants and Latinos.
The two groups are lumped together. Latinos headline the immigration debate because they make up the bulk of the immigrants in the United States -- both legal and illegal. And it's Latinophobia that is fueling the debate as whites and blacks, nativists and labor unions come together in common cause to turn back the demographic tide.
The Republican Party knows this. It's been stoking these fears for the last 20 years.
I want to help Republicans own up to their mistakes, although it's hard to feel sorry for them. They're getting a beating, but you can't say they weren't warned.
The issue is what will happen to Latinos. They will remain politically impotent as long as it is impossible for Republicans to win their support and nearly impossible for Democrats to lose it.
While some Republicans are ready to support immigration reform as a peace offering to Latinos, others are still in denial about their misbehavior.
Since memories are short, here are highlights of the GOP's ongoing tantrum against immigrants and Latinos.
l In 1994, Republicans in California, led by Gov. Pete Wilson, proposed and pushed Proposition 187, a ballot initiative that sought to deny education and other services to illegal immigrants and their children. After a campaign filled with racially tinged rhetoric, voters approved the measure, which a federal judge later struck down as unconstitutional.
l In 1996, Republican Rep. Lamar Smith of Texas proposed the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigration Responsibility Act, which made it easier to deport illegal immigrants and harder for them to return legally. The law, which was signed by President Bill Clinton, includes a 10-year bar for anyone who is removed and re-enters, something that immigration attorneys commonly refer to as the "Mexican bar" because it only seems to apply to immigrants from Mexico.
l In 2005, Republican Reps. James Sensenbrenner of Wisconsin and Peter King of New York proposed the Border Protection, Antiterrorism and Illegal Immigration Control Act. Before it was defeated in the Senate, the excessively punitive measure made illegal "presence" into a crime and expanded the definition of aiding and abetting lawbreakers to include charities and social service agencies.
l In 2006, Republican Rep. Tom Tancredo of Colorado referred to Miami as a "Third World country" because so many Latinos reside there and so much Spanish is spoken. And Republican Rep. Steve King of Iowa compared Mexican immigrants to farm animals when he proposed electrified fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border because "we do that with livestock all the time."
l In 2007, Republican Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma led his GOP colleagues down a detour in the debate over a Senate immigration reform bill with an amendment declaring English the "national language" of the United States. This made plain that, for some, the immigration debate is about nativist fears of a changing culture.
l In 2010, Republicans in Arizona wrote, approved and signed into law the now notorious do-it-yourself immigration measure that requires local and state police to enforce immigration law in ways that have resulted in the profiling of Latinos. A half-dozen states followed suit, due to the legislative efforts of Republicans.
l In 2012, the Republican presidential primary became an ugly contest of which candidate was the toughest on illegal immigrants while little was said about punishing the homeowners and businesses who hire them.
l And last month, Republican Sens. Kay Bailey Hutchison of Texas and Jon Kyl of Arizona dusted off and unveiled a bill that they drafted a year ago to create a second-rate DREAM Act where undocumented college students would get legal status but explicitly not get U.S. citizenship. Apparently, the senators are oblivious to the optics. Here you have Republicans, on the heels of an election where their party lost the Latino vote, proposing a bill that guarantees that a group of Latino immigrants can't vote.
This is quite a record. It is no wonder that the GOP is in a deep hole with Latinos. But Republicans are not victims. They're in this hole because, through many years of words and deeds, they put themselves there. It's time to accept this, and try to climb out instead of simply pretending the hole doesn't exist.

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean leaks for international HTC One X
0. phoneArena posted on 07 Oct 2012, 22:30
With the upcoming HTC One X+ coming to market powered by Android 4.1.1, the OS build was used to create an Android 4.1.1 custom ROM for some variants of the international (Tegra 3) version of the HTC One X, with the ROM, the device scores highlyon benchmark tests...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here
1. Ragnarockd (Posts: 47; Member since: 27 Aug 2012)
looking good. Some serious power from the update.
2. darkskoliro (Posts: 1090; Member since: 07 May 2012)
Sense is definitely the best manufacturer software out there now.
3. kitpogi (Posts: 7; Member since: 17 Jun 2012)
sense is THE best...after the 4.1 sense update, yes...TouchWiz is crap...HTC FTW!
5. BillyG (Posts: 305; Member since: 24 Sep 2012)
totally agree, my only complain would be that htc always make phones with crappy battery, but i'll take sense over touchwiz in a heartbeat.
7. darkskoliro (Posts: 1090; Member since: 07 May 2012)
Im sure the onex+ will do perfectly fine with battery life, HTC has learnt their lesson. And especially since software optimization for battery is being taken seriously by google, things will only get better.
21. RicNP (Posts: 32; Member since: 28 Jan 2011)
You should try the ONE S, it has great baterry life and is super smooth.
24. lsutigers (Posts: 821; Member since: 08 Mar 2009)
This is great news, I can't wait for the OneX's cousin, EVO 4G LTE, to get the update. I consistently get 5500+ on Quadrant with the EVO using the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Krait. I bet numbers will go up with the JB update on the US Snapdragon versions.
11. DSmithee (unregistered)
At the very least it's better than Touchwiz.
16. SlimSoulja86 (Posts: 660; Member since: 03 Nov 2011)
Something that amazes me about Android fans is that sometimes they are full of hate, most of them here seems to be hating on Samsung, yet it sells more than any other Android phones, and it had better if not innovative features, I might be wrong, but doesn't touchwiz have more features than any other skin out there, isn't touchwiz now lighter?
One thing about android fans is that, they always want the device they use to be called the best, so far Samsung Galaxy S3 is the phone of the year for 2012, and as much as i'm an iPhone fan, I'm sure S3 will also be crowned phone of the year from other sites and so on. With its plastic built and so called crappy skin, people seems to be buying it cos they are gonna put on a cover anyway which will make no difference. I know I'm gonna get thumb down from HTC, Motorola and so on fans who hate Samsung and Apple, it's all good, cos sometime truth hurts like hell. Samsung's touchwiz is the only innovative skin on android giving its customers/fans alot of choice, lots of features which you can chose to use or not, while other skins only depend on what Android gives them.
If possible can someone please tell me what makes Touchwiz crapy ova Sense?
BTW the latest Sense vs the latest Touchwiz, don't talk about the touchwiz on Galaxy S, but what is on the Note 2 and Galaxy S3
Just saying
18. darkskoliro (Posts: 1090; Member since: 07 May 2012)
I dont hate touchwiz, but its not for me.
The ever so slightly cartoonish looks that are still there piss me off (the icons)
And all these new "innovative features" I actually find a bit gimmicky...you know, nothing game changing for me at all. S-Voice? Yeah google voice (singling out an app, but you know what I mean)
And I really dont like the "lightness" of touchwiz. Its not so different from stock android to be honest, and Samsung dont provide that many widgets.
I love HTC widgets, they are brilliant and very appealing to me in terms of UI and functionality.
And Sense 4+ is now very fast, no thanks to jelly bean and more time to allow more refined code
There is nothing wrong with TouchWiz, but in comparison to Sense, they dont have anything I would find better on it.
19. jan25 (Posts: 470; Member since: 26 Feb 2012)
they way i see it, Touchwiz is both lighter and more reliable than Sense, while Sense looks way better than Touchwiz. consumers want what works best and that's why the S series is doing better than HTC. before thumbing me down, i advice HTC fans to look back at the software problems plaguing the One X when it was first released. i certainly hope this update addresses those issues because i like HTC and their fancy looking UI.
22. XPERIA-KNIGHT (unregistered)
there wasnt really much "plaguing" on sense 4.0 just mainly nit picky stuff that people find complaints about when putting under the microscope......to say plaguing is a bit of an over statement....but im willing to bet you can put your money on it that sense 4.1 and now the new sense 4+ has not only adressed those issues but added other beneficial features as well.....samsung definitely has the most features on there UI, theres no getting around it, but i get the feeling they are appealing to a younger crowd with all these gimmicks! while at the same time grown folk are buying it cuz its the phone you see constantly in the media......why are they selling so much? Well i would say mainly because they're intertwined in this epic battle with the most succesfull tech company in the world and their "iphone", which is only going to add attention to there product as well........To me, sense seems to be a more "mature" and user friendly UI that gets the job done.......and does it well while looking good at the same time lol
17. mobileharan (Posts: 18; Member since: 31 Oct 2011)
Sense is far better than touchwiz ... But for me the best manufacturer software in timescape UI from Sony ..
4. cliveprennison (Posts: 8; Member since: 15 Jul 2012)
Been testing for a couple of weeks and it's brilliant but the a**hole in the beta test that leaked it to xda is an idiot
6. preet27in (banned) (Posts: 173; Member since: 07 Jul 2012)
sense ... sense!!!! yes its the best software out there... htc just rocks. beating the so called note2 easily.and gs3 as well.best built quality phones now even better with performance.good luck htc, always love ur phones....... cheers!!!!
8. b1acktiger (Posts: 223; Member since: 19 May 2012)
Showing Galaxy Note 2 that your 2GB RAM is not worth in front of One X+ 1 GB
9. bigstrudel (Posts: 530; Member since: 20 Aug 2012)
2 gb ram is a Samsung sales gimmick nothing more nothing less.
12. Dilmah (Posts: 9; Member since: 08 Oct 2012)
hey trol, if you didnt know, 2gb ram wont give uber performance, it is for better MULTITASKING.... /facepalm
13. bigstrudel (Posts: 530; Member since: 20 Aug 2012)
It would in theory be better for multitasking if people were running out of RAM all the time. Thats simply not the case. Thats why it is a sales gimmick.
10. Mitchel (Posts: 228; Member since: 25 May 2012)
Lol. I'm glad that HTC fans here are so happy that their forgotten phones are in news today..
14. bigstrudel (Posts: 530; Member since: 20 Aug 2012)
Still alive and well. Now go have fuzzy feelings when your Galaxy S3 or iPhone commercial comes on.
15. Kronic (banned) (Posts: 321; Member since: 11 Sep 2012)
I knew it! There was always something holding this phone back. It had the potential to crush the galaxy s3 but sense always slowed it down along with ics. All I can say is that the king is back! Buying the one X+ as its gonna be even hotter.
20. babyk (Posts: 323; Member since: 03 Nov 2011)
23. bigstrudel (Posts: 530; Member since: 20 Aug 2012)
While the Quadrant scores are impressive; they have less to do with the update to Jelly Bean as they do with the rom itself.
Dont expect 7000 scores on quadrant from a stock One X with Android 4.1. Fluidity and web browsing speeds will increase by a good margin, and scores on benchmarks like Sunspider will go up but hardware benchmarks like Quadrant and Antutu have shown that the JB update doesnt make a huge difference on those benchmarks.
26. babyk (Posts: 323; Member since: 03 Nov 2011)
youre a hater and i can SENSE it lol
25. imkyle (Posts: 1087; Member since: 18 Nov 2010)
Will this update bring the new Sense 4+?
27. rizevnarastek (Posts: 349; Member since: 06 Sep 2012)
TouchWizz may be in some ways better... it has a lot of options but it's nothing you can't fix with a simple download of an app. Sense on the other hand looks perfect and it's a beauty to behold, it's customizable in ways TouhWizz can never be.

Atlantic Treaty Association and Youth Atlantic Treaty Association
- English
- French
The Atlantic Treaty Association (ATA) is an independent organisation designed to support the values enshrined in the North Atlantic Treaty. Created on 18 June 1954, it is an umbrella organisation for the separate national associations, voluntary organisations and non-governmental organisations that formed to uphold the values of the Alliance after its creation in 1949.
- The ATA's role is to educate and inform the public of NATO's activities and responsibilities, to promote democracy and, more generally, to uphold the values of the North Atlantic Treaty.
- The ATA's flagship events facilitate networking and policy debates among political leaders, academics, diplomats and journalists from the Euro-Atlantic area and beyond.
- The YATA – the youth branch of the ATA - has a similar role, helping to bridge the gap between policy and civil society in the areas of international security and defence.
- The ATA was created in June 1954, becoming the umbrella organisation for existing national associations, while the YATA was formed in 1996.
- Since the end of the Cold War, the activities of the ATA and YATA have increased significantly to include new NATO member states and countries that are engaged in partnership with the Alliance.
The ATA seeks to inform the public of NATO's role in international peace and security and promote democracy, individual liberty and the rule of law through debate and dialogue. To achieve this goal, it holds international seminars and conferences and has launched several initiatives, including the Central and South Eastern European Security Forum, Ukrainian Dialogue and Crisis Management Simulations. The ATA is also active in NATO's Partnership for Peace (PfP) programme and Mediterranean Dialogue, launching conferences, seminars and multi-year research programmes. As a result, the ATA's geographical scope has increased since the end of the Cold War, mirroring NATO's enlargement and its engagement with an ever-broader number of partner countries in the Euro-Atlantic area and beyond.
The ATA has a youth division - the Youth Atlantic Treaty Association (YATA) which was formed in 1996 to reach out to younger or "successor" generations. It serves to bring together groups of young professionals working in security and defence, providing an opportunity for networking between themselves and senior level officials from different countries. Similarly to the ATA, there are separate national youth divisions.
The role of the ATA and YATA
The ATA
The ATA is a community of policy-makers, think tankers, diplomats, academics and representatives from industry. It has several aims, which are to uphold the values set forth in the North Atlantic Treaty, promote democracy, and educate and inform the public of NATO's work and responsibilities.
It also strives to promote solidarity between the people of the North Atlantic region, those in countries which have signed up to PfP and the Mediterranean Dialogue, and people who are directly concerned with Euro-Atlantic security. It conducts research and pursues dialogue with these countries while deepening cooperation between various organisations connected with Euro-Atlantic security, such as member associations of the ATA, the governments of member associations, the European Union, NATO and the NATO Parliamentary Assembly. It also promotes the development of civil society in, for instance, the Black Sea and Caucasus regions, and engages in dialogue with Middle Eastern countries.
More generally, the ATA fosters debate and dialogue in an effort to create a solid understanding of Alliance issues. In addition, it works to develop relations between organisations in different countries by connecting with civil society groups that support the basic principles of the North Atlantic Treaty. Furthermore, it seeks to develop relations between its members in an effort to achieve common goals.
The ATA's youth division - YATA – was formed in 1996 during the ATA's General Assembly in Rome.
It works in close cooperation with the ATA, supports its activities and shares its primary goals. They include educating and informing the successor generation about issues concerning international security, supporting research into NATO's role in the world and encouraging young leaders to shape the future of the transatlantic security relationship while promoting its importance.
YATA also seeks to encourage cooperation between the youths of NATO member countries and partner countries, and between various international organisations to generate debate about the role of security institutions.
Although YATA is officially part of the ATA, it also holds separate activities to achieve its objectives, such as its annual Atlantic Youth Seminars in Denmark (DAYS) and Portugal (PAYS), as well as crisis management simulations and regional conferences. YATA also works with NATO's Public Diplomacy Division to organise international conferences and seminars where the national YATA chapters are able to meet Alliance leaders and officials, including the NATO Secretary General, to discuss transatlantic security issues.
Working mechanisms
The ATA is composed of three main bodies: the Assembly, the Bureau and the Council, as well as the YATA and the Committee of Patrons.
The Assembly is the top decision-making body of the ATA and is comprised of delegates from Member, Associate Member and Observer Member associations. With the exception of Observer Members, each delegate has one vote and resolutions are passed by a simple majority. In addition to the delegates, members of the press and academic community, government and military officials, and international observers may attend the General Assembly meetings, which are held once a year.
The Bureau includes the president, vice presidents, secretary general, treasurer, YATA president and the legal adviser. Members of the Bureau assist in carrying out the decisions of the Council and the Assembly and aid in policy matters, in addition to developing relationships with other groups such as the NATO Parliamentary Assembly.
The Council comprises Bureau members plus up to three delegates from each of the ATA Member, Associate Member and Observer Member associations. The ATA allows the Council to take action on its behalf, with the recommendation of the Bureau and the approval of the Assembly. The Council holds two meetings a year: once at NATO Headquarters and once in a host country.
The YATA
The Youth Atlantic Treaty Association is officially part of the ATA. It serves as the youth division of the ATA and has its own structure, activities and programmes.
The Committee of Patrons
The Committee of Patrons is comprised of previous ATA presidents and other people who have served the ATA with merit.
The President of the ATA is in charge of the general policy of the Association, in addition to acting as its spokesperson. The Assembly, with input from the Council, elects the president for a three-year period.
The ATA Secretary General is in charge of day-to-day operations for the Association, furthering its goals and aims, implementing the decisions of the Assembly, Council and Bureau, and maintaining relationships with various other institutions. The Assembly, with input from the Council and the Bureau, elects the Secretary General for a three-year renewable period.
The Assembly also elects the treasurer, who is in charge of financial matters, for a renewable three-year period.
There are three different types of membership in the ATA: Members, Associate Members and Observers.
The national associations which come from NATO member countries may join the ATA as Members. As such, they may attend and participate in Bureau, Council and Assembly meetings. They also have full voting rights.
Associate Members
The national associations that make up the Associate Members of ATA come from non-NATO countries that have signed up to PfP. Associate Members may attend and participate in Bureau, Council and Assembly meetings. Once an association's respective country joins NATO, the association automatically becomes a Member. Much like Members, Associate Members also have full voting rights.
Observer Members
Associations from non-NATO countries who have not signed up to PfP, but whose countries either participate in the Mediterranean Dialogue or have a direct interest in Euro-Atlantic security issues can still participate in the ATA under the status of Observer Members. As Observer Members, the national associations may attend and participate in Council and Assembly meetings, but not Bureau meetings. Also, unlike Members and Associate Members, Observer Members have no voting rights.
Evolution of the ATA
Following the creation of the Alliance in 1949, several separate organisations in NATO member countries formed with the aim of informing the public of NATO's role and activities. A few years later, these organisations came together under the umbrella of the Atlantic Treaty Association when the latter was established on 18 June 1954.
Public debates and discussions focused on NATO's activities during the Cold War, but with the dissolution of the Soviet Union - and with it the Warsaw Pact- the ATA's focus expanded. The ATA examines security issues related to Central and Eastern European countries, as well as the Caucasus and the Mediterranean regions. Several of the ATA's more recent initiatives, such as the Central and South Eastern European Security Forum, Ukrainian Dialogue and Crisis Management Simulations, highlight this new focus.
In addition to being an active participant in NATO's PfP programme and the Mediterranean Dialogue, the ATA also hosts several international seminars and conferences each year in order to further its objectives.

The Yardley Players' BYE BYE BIRDIE Comes to Kelsey Theatre, 7/13-22
Poodle skirts and leather jackets are the height of style as Mercer County Community College's Kelsey Theatre 2012 Summer Festival presents The Yardley Players in the rock n' roll musical, "Bye Bye Birdie." Performances are Fridays, July 13 and 20 at 8 p.m.; Saturdays, July 14 and 21 at 8 p.m.; and Sundays, July 15 and 22 at 2 p.m. Kelsey Theatre is located on the college's West Windsor campus, 1200 Old Trenton Road. A reception with the cast and crew follows the opening night performance on July 13.
Inspired by the media frenzy that surrounded Elvis Presley when he was drafted into the army in 1957, "Bye Bye Birdie" tells the story of Conrad Birdie, the biggest rock & roll star of the late 1950's. Conrad's agent, Albert Peterson, is convinced he can make his fortune and marry the girl of his dreams if he gets Conrad on "The Ed Sullivan Show" to make his farewell television performance and kiss his "biggest fan" before he goes to war. But Albert's mother is against his marriage and Conrad's contest winner is in love with another (or so she says). Will the show go off without a hitch?
Dick Van Dyke was the first to make this Tony Award-winning musical a success, playing the role of Albert Peterson both on the stage and in the 1963 film. Tying in the seriousness of war with a plot that is both humorous and captivating, "Bye Bye Birdie" is a show for the entire family to enjoy.
Cast members include Peter Alexander of Princeton Junction as Harry MacAffe; Sally Graham of Yardley, PA, as Kim MacAfee; Laurie Hardy of Hamilton as Mae Peterson; Chris McHugh of Morrisville, PA, as Hugo Peabody; Chris Neuman of Hamilton as Albert Peterson; Ashley Patrick of Langhorne, PA, as Doris MacAfee; Lorraine Perri of Florence as Rose Alvarez; Jason Schwartz of Richboro, PA, as Randolph MacAfee; and Brent Tuccillo of Hamilton Square as Conrad Birdie.
Ensemble cast members include Arnold Brown of Monroe Township, Mike Diiorio of Hamilton, Roland Felkner of Yardville, Alan Hardy of Hamilton, Art Miller of Kingston, Adam Nicolai of Plainsboro, Gene Pullen of New Egypt, Ron SanGiovanni of Burlington, Ed Szemis of West Windsor, Carolyn Anzuini of East Windsor, Carol Feinstein of East Windsor, Alex Kasdin of Princeton, Amanda Mancino of Hamilton, Sharon Underberg of Belle Mead, Liz Wurtz of Levittown, PA, Holden Bihl of Robbinsville, Matt Blazejewski of Trenton, Stephen Blazejewski of Trenton, Quinton Darling of Morrisville, PA, Justin Ghaffoor of Hamilton, Jonathan Martin of East Windsor, David Rowcotsky of Ewing, Stephen Szemis of West Windsor, Kaitlyn Bader of Westampton, Alexandra Caldwell of Princeton Junction, Margaret Delucia of Robbinsville, Elizabeth Felkner of Yardville, Rachel Garretson of Cranbury, Kimmy Graham of Yardley, PA, Joanna Latini of Hamilton Square, Taylor Lloyd of Hamilton, Grace Ann Manno of Burlington, Abby Oliver of Hamilton, Caroline Purdy of Cranbury, Karlee Sangiovanni of Burlington, Caroline Scott of Skillman, Tara Wagner of Hamilton, and Erin Wurtz of Levittown, PA.
The show is produced and directed by Marge Swider, with assistant direction by Amy Zalot, musical direction by David Bohn, choreography by Laura Murey, stage management by Mike Diiorio, and set design by Mike Almstedt.
Tickets are $18 for adults, $16 for seniors, and $14 for students and children. For tickets, call the Kelsey Theatre box office at 609-570-3333, or visit HYPERLINK "http://www.kelseytheatre.net" www.kelseytheatre.net.

Fingers: Stiffness, Soreness
I'm 26 and for the past two years I have been unable to bend my fingers into a complete fist. I've started doing the finger stretches that you suggested [No. 173 or drjulian-saunders.com] as well as ice baths, but nothing seems to improve the range of motion. Outside of tenderness and mild soreness when I bend/straighten my fingers it doesn't affect my climbing. Is this something to worry about? What is causing it? Anything else I can do for therapy?
dgflr7 | RockandIce.com Forum
Any loss of Range of motion is a tad concerning. In the absence of pain, it is likely to be one of a few scenarios. First, you may have some fluid accumulation in your fingers due to ongoing stress. Second, the connective tissues have, in the process of strengthening, thickened and now act like a cumulative wedge. Last, thickening around the joint capsule and collateral ligaments that stabilize the finger joints will lead to stiffening and produce the same effect.
It is certainly common for climbers to experience swelling and stiffness in their fingers much like a sumo wrestler gets sore knees because they get hammered.
End-range pain usually suggests that the joint is simply under chronic strain. That it does not affect your climbing is awesome! Just keep in mind that loss of ROM is the first sign that the joint is undergoing changes as a result of the stress. The next station on your express train to world domination may be an unscheduled stop at Destruct-o-ville.
I would not be too worried -- though I would do the stretches diligently and try to increase the ROM. Once you lose the accessory motions such as rotation and multi-planar sheering of the PIP and DIP joints, the pulley system will be under relatively greater loads at certain points and the chance of damage is on the upswing.
If the joints become any more painful or swollen, see your physician. I doubt very much that it is an inflammatory arthritis, but I can't see your fingers!

got a small amount of salmon to try this on, i couldn't cold smoke to well until i got this AMNPS wood pellet smoke generator and its opened up alot of new ways of smoking meats and im really liking it.
this recipe is a simple one, pink salt, kosher salt, white or brown sugar, white pepper. ill put the amounts on here later.
remove the skin and drag the fish through the dry rub on all sides, with the remaining amount of rub coat the bottom of your container put the fish on top of that then the rest of the rub on top of the fish, (dont add any water to it) cover and place in fridge for 48 hrs.
i done mine and placed it in the fridge at 9:30 tues morning, im half way and this is what it looks like now,
all this water came from the fish, when its done curing ill wash it and soak it in cold water, they say for 90 min but i think thats going to be too long and id like to leave a hint of salt in it then place a towel down put the fish on it and let dry uncovered in the fridge untill its dry to the touch, the bottem of the fish needs to be protected in some way from the smoke building up, butchers paper or parchment paper, what im going to do is cover a part of a rack with tinfoil then turn it over and put the fish on it, that leaves a small gap under the fish so the smoke can get to all sides, put the fish in the smoker fill your AMNPS with pellets and light one end.
smoke time is 2-18 hrs, depends on the size and thickness and amount fish your wanting to smoke.
some say to vac pack after smoking to age, equalize,and mello the flavors, ill try to age it but that wont last.

Office of the Registrar
Emory University School of Law's Office of the Registrar works with students, faculty, staff, and alumni to ensure adherence to university policies and procedures.
The Emory Law Registrar works in conjunction with Emory University's Office of the Registrar » For questions regarding degree programs, requirements, and other academic policies, consult the Academic Catalog »
The Emory Law Registrar is an adjunct of Emory University's Office of the Registrar, administering university policies and procedures for students, faculty, staff, and alumni within the School of Law. Services include
- Determining enrollment status, academic standing, and class rank
- Counseling with students regarding their degree requirements
- Preparing certifications for degree requirements, bar exams, bar loans, and bar registration
- Advising students with issues including course overloads, leaves of absence, audits, and withdrawals
- Managing the registration and exam processes
- Liason to adjunct faculty
A degree application must be filed with the law school registrar's office before the degree application deadline. An application received after the deadline for the term in which graduation is planned must be accompanied by a $25.00 late application fee. If a late application is accepted, there is no guarantee that the diploma will be available at commencement.
To apply, check your OPUS Student Center account. If the application does not appear there, please complete the paper form on the University Registrar website and bring it to the Law School Registrar's Office in G134.
Since requirements for bar admission vary by state, students are strongly encouraged to review requirements for the specific area in which they intend to practice.
American Bar Association Character and Fitness Statement
All applicants must complete an Emory University School of Law application through the Law School Admission Council. Answer each question honestly and completely. Failure to do so may result in the denial or revocation of your admission, suspension or dismissal after matriculation, withdrawal of certification of graduation, or revocation of your degree.
If you have been convicted of offenses other than minor traffic violations or if you withhold required information on this application, you may have difficulty gaining Bar admission. State bar organizations often require that you include your law school application as part of your Bar admission application. Accordingly, your answers in your Emory Law application relating to these matters often will be part of your record. As each state bar has specific admission requirements, you should review the requirements for the state in which you intend to practice.
Excluding minor traffic offenses, you must disclose each instance prior to or after your matriculation at Emory Law if admitted even though the charges may have been dismissed or you were acquitted or allowed to plead nolo contendere or an adjudication was withheld or a conviction was reversed, set aside or vacated, or the record sealed or expunged, and regardless of whether you have been told you need not disclose any such instance.
We reserve the right to rescind an offer of admission even after enrollment if any requested information is incomplete or inaccurate.
Did you know . . .
Before you are admitted to any state's bar and get your license to practice law, you must be approved by the bar's committee on character and fitness. In many states, like Georgia, you must be approved before you can take the bar exam.
You will be required to answer questions relating to your honesty, fiscal responsibility, compliance with court orders, record of criminal activity, mental and emotional stability, and any misuse of alcohol and controlled substances, including prescription medications.
Examples of conduct the bar may view as grounds to deny certification:
- intentional failure to file tax returns
- non-compliance with court orders, including orders of child support and summonses to appear in court or serve on a jury
- commission of a felony, including the misuse or wrongful distribution of prescription medications as well as street drugs
- failure to repay student loans or other debts
- a pattern of traffic tickets or DUI arrests
- any theft or fraud, e.g. shoplifting or credit card misuse
- academic plagiarism or misconduct
- series of misdemeanor arrests
- repeated frivolous litigation
- statements disparaging or threatening the rights or safety of others or showing disrespect for the law or courts
- failure to acknowledge and get treatment for addiction or substance abuse
- discrepancies between the disclosures made to the bar and other documents or records (i.e., lack of candor)
The burden of proof is on the applicant, who must establish and document his or her current good character and fitness to practice law.
The most common reason for denial of a bar applicant in Georgia is "A pattern of dishonesty in dealings with employers, schools, and authorities, including the Office of Bar Admissions."
The bar committee will scrutinize documents that usually include your law school application; your work history; your credit reports; your driving record; the disposition of any kind of civil lawsuit involving you; any criminal record, including juvenile and expunged records.
In Georgia, any applicant who has been convicted of a DUI charge or its equivalent is ineligible to be certified by the character and fitness committee for at least twelve (12) months after the date of conviction.
One of the extraordinary benefits of being a student at Emory Law is the access you have to courses and faculty members in the other Emory graduate schools. Whether you're interested in exploring health policy with the Rollins School, learning more about empire-building finance at the Goizueta Business School, or developing fluency in French or Spanish at the Laney Graduate School, you should consider taking full advantage of the cross-registration opportunities we offer. Second- and third-year JD students may count up to 3 credits from courses taken at other Emory graduate schools toward their degree requirements.
Add: Students interested in cross-registering into or out of the law school should submit petitions through the law school Registrar's Office.
- Each law student is responsible for first checking OPUS to verify that the course of interest is open.
- In order to complete the cross-registration process, all students will need to complete and submit their petitions during the host school's cross-registration enrollment period. To confirm the host school's cross-registration enrollment period, please refer to that school's Academic Calendar or the host school's Registrar's Office.
Drop: If you are interested in dropping a cross-registered course, you may do so as long as you are in compliance with all cross-registration deadlines. In order to drop the cross-registered course, please notify the law school Registrar's Office. The law school Registrar's Office will process the drop and notify the host school.
- Please note, if an Emory Law student needs to drop a law course after our add/drop deadline due to late acceptance into a cross-registered course, our office will drop you without penalty from the law course.
Time Conflicts: Your cross-registered course cannot conflict with anything on your law schedule. You must allow travel time between schools as well. You are responsible for understanding the schedule and rules at the school where you cross-register.
- Students may not make arrangements with faculty at either school to leave early or arrive late in order to accommodate a cross-registered course.
Approved vs. Enrolled: It is important to note that faculty approval does not guarantee enrollment in the course. If the faculty member approves your request, you should complete the online form. The law school will forward on to the host school's Registrar's Office your request for final processing. The law school Registrar's Office will enroll you if there is available space in the course. The law school must work with the host school to confirm student enrollment; this can take up to 72 hours from time of submission.
Grades: The host school's grade scale will be the grade of record that will appear on your transcript. It will not, however, be used in the calculation of honors. Grades are not converted between schools. Whatever grade you are assigned at the host school will appear on your Emory Law transcript.
- Most graduate schools do not allow pass/fail grading, and you should not try to negotiate different grading with the professor. If you have any specific questions about grading at the host school, you will want to follow up with their Registrar's Office.
The Emory University School of Law Professional Conduct Code declares our values as a community and governs students' behavior throughout law school, whether on campus or off.
Request for a replacement diploma must be made in writing to the Office of the Registrar, 1301 B. Jones Center, Atlanta, GA 30322. Cost of replacement is $35.00 payable by cash, check, or money order, payable to Emory University. Processing time is approximately 6 to 8 weeks. Requests must include the name to appear on the diploma, the graduation year, the degree received, phone number where you can be reached, and physical address. Since the diploma will be mailed via Federal Express, please do not send a PO Box address. Requests also can be made in person at the Office of the Registrar.

I have suddenly run into a road block with something I have done a million times. When I use the following I wind up with a line break after the (before first link). I have looked at it a million times and need to give a break. Hope someone can tell me what stupid thing I've done.

Robbie Morin, my good friend from Houston, sent along a recent video about the  Lost My Stuff Group , and just perhaps the folks in Carthage should watch it. A great example of what we are about, and why we shouldn't be treated like second class citizens. Please watch  THIS  and pass along....I love this group.

Where is that?
"sent along a recent video about the"
I have a line break happening after "the" and before the link, and I cannot understand why?
There's nothing in the code you've posted that would cause a line break. Can you provide a URL to the page or post the HTML and CSS (preferably with syntax highlighting)?
Yeah, we'd need to see the full page code. Sounds something like the  is set to display: block or something, though there'd be a gap after it too.
I would like to offer the full code, but last time I was criticized for it being so poorly done. Being an amateur I was pretty demoralized. I have learned a lot from you folks, and you have help me out time after time. I started my website based on six weeks of adult ed at a local community college. It was fun and still is, but I do not have the money to continue classes. I am 70 years old and live on a pretty limited income.
I still try to understand new things but find it difficult. I will work through this one, and let you know what my problem was. Thanks.
Barnum, don't hesitate to post links to your work here. We have a few folks who get a little snarky and overheated in their critiquing of others' work (I've been guilty of it!), but overall the community here is very committed to helping others learn and fix problems. If someone zings you, zing em right back . The mods keep order when it's needed, and personal insults and such are not tolerated. There's nothing hurtful about well-meaning critiquing, and as long as it's provided in a respectful manner, it should be taken in the spirit in which it (should be) intended -- to help you produce a better site that works for you and the people who use it.
If you ask that only this or that element of your site be taken under review, people should respect that request.
Rather than "zing them back", I would suggest you make use of the orange flag (report a post) if someone gets too heavy handed for you. That button will bring the specific problem to the attention of all moderators and you will get the help and support you need.
Other than that, I agree with what Black Max has said above. Nobody should need to be afraid to post in these forums. We are here to help you build a better website and as a result, contribute to creating a better WWW for everyone. If this were a forum for "experts only" it probably wouldn't exist at all.
Is this a static page or are you using a CMS? Sometimes, a CMS will make that happen if you have it set to use visual as well as html. If you can, please post a link to your page source and your css file as your browser shows it. There may be something there that will help us see the problem.
If you have a problem with certain individuals block them.
my guess is that you have a rule that follows this pattern IN YOUR CSS: a{ display:block;}.you probably DONT want to get rid of that specifically, as in other places in your site you might actually WANT the effect you describe . what you want to do is code an exception to this rule ...
As a rough suggestion: .someClass p a{ display:inline;}.
Again this is just a pattern, not a specific solution, but it should guid you as to what to look for.
