Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 29/3/2014 (1242 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Good morning, Winnipeg. The forecast high is 0 C, the Jets have almost no chance of making the playoffs and the 2014 Junos are 85 per cent over.
As of 9:20 p.m. on Saturday, 35 out of the 41 awards honouring the best and beardiest in Canadian music were handed out at the Juno Awards gala -- the part of the glassware-apportioning proceedings you don't get to watch on television.
A grand total of six awards -- yes, I am a mathematical genius -- will be presented at the broadcast component of the show, which CTV airs from the MTS Centre tonight at 8 p.m.
For decades, rappers, jazz musicians and other recordings consigned to the "genre" categories have lamented the fact the vast majority of the Junos are not deemed worthy of a national TV spotlight.
This year, for the first time, the Canadian Academy of Recording Arts & Sciences live-streamed the gala, which was held in the concrete confines of the RBC Convention Centre Winnipeg.
That meant people who really, really wanted to find out which art directors won Recording Package of the Year or see Vancouver Island's Helen Austin win the children's-album award could ignore Hockey Night in Canada for one Saturday of the NHL season.
Yes, the Juno gala ain't as glitzy as the broadcast. It's geared more to the music industry than it is to actual fans.
But it's also way less scripted and more prone to abject goofiness.
Halifax's Matt Mays, for example, was hanging around in a convention-centre hallway, yammering with a buddy about surfing, when his Coyote won Rock Album of the Year.
Toronto's Justin Rutledge, who won the Roots & Traditional Solo Album award for Valleyheart, wandered into the backstage media room and directed attention to a wet spot in his lap.
"Your crotch is God's beer cozy," he explained, uttering what would have been the most uncomfortable quote of the night until someone asked him what sexual position best described his music.
Awards shows are serious business, people.
Award presenter Fred Penner, the kids' music deity, led a room full of people in ball gowns and suits through an a capella rendition of Red River Valley, changing the lyrics to reference the little-known fact Winnipeg is cold.
Gala MC Jian Ghomeshi, the host of Q on CBC Radio, balanced out the requisite Winnipeg needling by claiming his hometown of Toronto is actually the "city with the coldest people" -- and prone to power failures, too.
"In Toronto, we don't call them blackouts, we call them stupors," he said, making the only Rob Ford joke of the night.
While Toronto's mayor wasn't present -- this was a non-televised show, after all -- no less than four current and past politicians managed to get face time with a few hundred music-business types.
Manitoba Premier Greg Selinger made some perfunctory remarks. Canadian Heritage Minister Shelly Glover, Manitoba's senior MP, heralded Canadian cultural exports. Lloyd Axworthy, a former senior Manitoba MP, introduced humanitarian award-winners Chantal Kreviazuk and Raine Maida.
And Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau appeared in a video tribute to the humanitarian couple, whose joint acceptance speech easily ranked as the most poignant moment of the gala.
Kreviazuk, who volunteers for War Child Canada among other charities, spoke passionately about the use of sexual assault as a weapon of war. The former Winnipegger told a harrowing tale about a Congolese woman who was repeatedly raped and lost both her husband and two children to her attackers.
There was an awkward emotional disjunction as Kreviazuk and Maida headed backstage and faced questions about their clothing and upcoming recording projects.
Awards shows are serious business, people.
To be fair, not everyone in the media room could hear what was said in the convention-centre ballroom. Kreviazuk and Maida handled the weirdness gracefully.
Another former Winnipegger, jazz bassist and composer Mike Downes, name-checked the Silver Heights Restaurant while he graciously fielded hometown questions about growing up in St. James. He won traditional jazz album of the year for Ripple Effect.
The big Manitoba winner of the night was violinist and former Brandonite James Ehnes, who was handed two awards in absentia. Technically, these were the only Manitoba wins of the night.
At the start of the gala, CARAS president and CEO Melanie Berry noted Manitoba is home to 12 per cent of Canada's musicians even though it has only 2.5 per cent of Canada's population.
As no more Manitobans are up for awards this weekend, this province actually hoovered up only 4.9 per cent of the available Junos.
The remaining awards will be presented tonight. Pop singer Serena Ryder, rapper Classified and country singer Johnny Reid will host the show -- with no guidance whatsoever from Fred Penner.

Have Urology Questions? Ask a Urologist Online.
Ultrasound did not include biopsy. Don't know what level the PSA was a year earlier. But DR also did a digital rectal exam at time of last PSA test and said it was normal except for enlarged prostate.
Radiologist reported nothing suspicious and noted (Call patient looks OK). Only comment was ultrasound was consistent with location and shape of BHP.
I have in additon to borderline osteoporosis some of the symptoms of low testosterone ie low libido which prompted internist to check testostrone in first place, anxiety and depression and trouble focusing and concentrating. Have had these for years and have been seeing a phyciatrist for 15 years. Currently on lexapro and xanax for years. Does not seem to really help. Wondering if this could all be related to low testosterone which has existed for many years. Also have always had flabbly breasts nothing obscene but just out of proportion to rest of build for many years.
Just curious that radiologist did not recommend an ultrasound with a biopsy after reviewing the ultrasound. She saw nothing in the ultasound that would indicate prostate cancer. Only conclusion was reading consistent with BHP.

Michelle Trachtenberg Will Be a Solo CW Star
Michelle Trachtenberg seems to be breaking free of all the Gossip Girl drama she causes and will be getting her very own CW show.
Deadline Hollywood reports that Trachtenberg will portray "a young criminology student with a gift for profiling and a dark past." It's an idea that was created by Trachtenberg herself, and she'll also serve as a producer on the show.
Michelle has carved out a name for herself in movies and television, thanks in part to her recent and often evil turn as Georgina Sparks on Gossip.
There's currently no name attached to the new project … so, let's leave it up to you, faithful readers. Leave your show name suggestions in the comments!

Jen Bryant's A River of Words: The Story of William Carlos Williams
illustrated by Melissa Sweet
Review by Steve Barancik
Grades 3-6
I've never really gotten the point of poetry that doesn't rhyme. Maybe that makes me the best person to write this review.
This is the true growing up story of doctor poet William Carlos Williams - Willie Williams - who grew up in New Jersey, near the Passaic River.
In Jen Bryant's narrative, Willie is a normal boy with not only a fascination for nature, but a drive to put what he sees of it into words.
At first, he imitated the famous English writers he had learned about in school. He counted the beats in each line and made the endings rhyme....
But after a while, he grew frustrated. He had pictures in his mind that didn't fit exactly into steady rhythms or rhymes.
Sweet's Caldecott Honor winning illustrations are a constant interplay
of words and pictures, putting us in the mind of Williams as he renders
what he sees into free verse, just as author Jen Bryant treats us to
both prose narrative about young Willie and samples of the adult
master's shorter works.
This is Just to Say
I have eaten
the plums
that were in
the icebox
and which
you were probably
for breakfast
Forgive me
they were delicious
so sweet
and so cold
The book speaks to us in another way too. Whether your child is suffering from over-specialization (one activity dominating) or over-booking (every minute of the day with an activity or appointment), this book tells that it's possible to do more than one thing, at one's own pace, and for the duration of one's own life.
A valuable message in today's world.
The book shows us that William Carlos Williams became a family doctor, but never gave up his poetry or his association with other artists.
A timeline of the doctor-poet's life, as well as some additional reading suggestions, follow the text.

HOUSTON - Authorities have released sketches of two men wanted for allegedly abducting a teenage female and continuously sexually assaulting her.
On June 25 at around 8:30pm, Houston police say a teenaged female was walking westbound on the 5500 block of Desoto St. in northwest Houston. As she walked, two Hispanic males between the ages of 40-45 years, forced her into the back of a small black four door vehicle with dark tinted windows.
The victim reported the vehicle had red interior lighting and a pair of white baby shoes hanging from the rearview mirror. After being forced into the vehicle, the teenage victim was driven behind a wall on the same block, where the two males took turns sexually assaulting her in the backseat.
Both suspects were dressed in blue uniform work shirts, which appeared to have been issued by the same company. The first suspect is described as a Hispanic male, approximately 35-40 years of age, of slender build and standing approximately 5 foot 7. The first male's uniform may have had the name 'Jerry' printed upon a name patch.
The second suspect is described as a Hispanic male, approximately 40-45 years of age standing approximately 5 foot 10.
Anyone with information about the identity of the suspects is asked to contact Crime Stoppers of Houston at (713) 222-TIPS (8477).
Crime Stoppers will pay up to $5,000 for any information called in to the 713-222-TIPS (8477) or submitted online at Crime-Stoppers.org that leads to the filing of felony charges or arrest of the suspects in this case. Tips can also be sent by text message. Text TIP610 plus your tip to CRIMES (274637). All tipsters remain anonymous.

Eminem's Ireland Gig Threatens Missionary Convention
Eminem is in jeopardy of having his Northern Ireland debut canceled due to a scheduling conflict with a local missionary prayer service.
The Detroit MC, who has notably cleaned up his act since getting sober, is slated to headline the Tennent's Vital, a music festival in Bangor, Ireland, on August 24, the same day as Bangor's Missionary Convention, which is celebrating its 75th anniversary at a nearby church.
The two day open-air music festival, which takes place in Wart Park, and also features D12, Odd Future and indie-pop darling Ellie Goulding, is literally just a few yards away from the Hamilton Road Presbyterian Church where the Missionary Convention will be taking place. Though only one Bangor resident has made an official objection to the booking, the complainant, 47-year-old Brian Ashworth, claims to represent "scores" of other concerned citizens, and has lobbied the Borough Council to deny the festival's entertainment license application.
"I have no issue with a family-friendly concert in a park but this is a performer who uses the crudest language — language that degrades women and has the foulest, most twisted content," Ashworth explained. "I have been doing a survey to determine how far the lyrics will be heard and local residents tell me that they heard previous concerts at the park. The council should never have allowed this."
While it is not yet known the impact of Ashworth's deputation with the Borough Council, which took place Tuesday night (June 21) at Bangor Town Hall, a spokesperson for the council said that his complaint will be taken into consideration, and a decision regarding the festival's entertainment license will be made in July.
"The main motivation for this event is to make money, and while it is important to stimulate the economy, it shouldn't involve breaching decency," Ashworth concluded.
An estimated 55,000 tickets have been sold for the Tennent's Vital, which is sold out on the day of Eminem's performance. Representatives for the rapper have yet to comment regarding the unfortunate scheduling conflict.

Latrobe native boasts six decades in service to country
When Raymond and Samuel Moran of Latrobe enlisted in the peacetime Army in September 1948, they didn't realize that one of the brothers would be involved in the military for the next six decades.
Raymond Moran, the oldest of the Moran family's three sons, is the Defense Department's oldest recruiter at age 82 and longest-serving recruiter at 61 years and counting, according to the American Forces Press Service.
Moran, a retired Army sergeant major, has been a recruiter from 1951 to 1978 while on active duty and as a civilian from 1978 to 2012. Although he retired in July as a civilian recruiter at Fort George Meade near Laurel, Md., his latest retirement did not stop him from volunteering his services five days a week. The volunteer is at his desk at 6 a.m.
"I've loved every minute of it. I'll be the volunteer until they take me to Arlington," Moran quipped, referring to Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia.
He is so well-respected by the Army that he was one of the first inductees in 2009 of what is now the Sgt. Major Ray Moran Recruiting and Retention School Hall of Fame at Fort Jackson, S.C. In addition, he has been honored by the Association of Military Recruiters and Counselors with the Distinguished Veterans Award and the Medal of Merit.
The main key to being a good recruiter is to be a good listener and to be truthful, Moran said.
"I often tell them (prospective recruits) that basic training is very rough and you might not make it, men and women. I stress this to them. They all come back and say, 'I made it, Sarge, I made it' and then they yell," Moran said.
The education benefits also were a big factor, like the G.I. Bill, Moran said.
As Veterans Day approaches on Sunday, the "Old Soldier," as he is known in the Army, says he has no intention of retiring from his volunteer post recruiting soldiers generations younger than he is to serve in the all-volunteer Army.
As has been his tradition for some 30 years, Moran will observe Veterans Day as he does Memorial Day – attending the memorial service at Arlington National Cemetery. With family members and other veterans from the Fort Meade area, he will go into Washington, D.C., to the Vietnam War Memorial and then to the Korean War Memorial, honoring fellow soldiers of the two conflicts in which he served. Moran said he then will make the short walk to the World War II Memorial, honoring that "Greatest Generation."
How it all started
As teenagers, Ray and Sam Moran would wave goodbye to troops of that "Greatest Generation" as they marched down the street to the Latrobe railroad station, where they boarded trains for faraway destinations to fight Nazi Germany or Japan. Ray and Sam, 81, did their patriotic duty and enlisted in the Army in September 1948, while their youngest brother, Jim, now 77, followed their example a few years later and joined the Air Force.
Ray and Sam Moran both served in the Korean War. Raymond had been part of the occupation force in postwar Japan and was shipped to Korea in July 1950, less than a month after the war started. Sam had been stationed in Okinawa and then got a 30-day leave to come home before being sent to Korea as part of a mortar division, he said.
Although in different units, by sheer luck they were to meet in Korea. Ray Moran was manning a roadblock one wintry night in November 1950 when his brother drove down in a Jeep with a wounded soldier. Even though Sam was in a hurry and could not get out of his Jeep for an extended visit, Ray Moran recalled that hearing his brother's voice and talking to him just made him feel great.
By another coincidence, the Moran brothers came home the same day in July 1951 — Ray first, then Sam — and a family celebration ensued.
The recruiting begins
Sam opted for civilian life and became an electrician at the old Walworth plant in South Greensburg, while Ray started a journey as a recruiter in Pittsburgh. He was assigned to Washington County, working at the courthouse and in charge of recruitment for an Army Reserve unit, the Reserve Officer Training Corps at Washington & Jefferson College in Washington and an Army National Guard unit.
He remained there for 12 years, meeting his wife, Barbara, who worked in the courthouse where he had an office. Befitting a military man, their first date was to an Army recruiting training conference in Pittsburgh and her engagement ring was his 1st Calvary Division ring. The couple, married in 1953, have three adult children and six grandchildren.
He continued his recruiting and retention duties in Germany and volunteered to go to Vietnam in 1970, where he was stationed near the Cambodian border. He was assigned the duty of finding replacements for helicopter door gunners, a job he did not find difficult because those who took the job "got out of the jungle, got a hot meal and a shower," he said.
He adapted to recruiting for an all-volunteer Army in the 1970s, proving that the Army could succeed on an all-volunteer basis, Moran said,
"I'm proud to be part of building that. The volunteer Army proved itself in Operation Desert Storm," said Moran, who has recruited about 1,000 soldiers into the Army during his long career. It's what Moran calls his "1,000-member brigade."
Retired, then unretired
After Moran retired from active duty in 1978, he continued to fill the ranks of the Army with new recruits by becoming a civilian recruiter for the Baltimore Recruiting Battalion of the 1st Recruiting Brigade.
"As corny as it sounds, the young men and women are really patriotic and want to serve, and do it now, knowing the danger of war," Moran said of the all-volunteer Army.
He was in that position when President George H.W. Bush launched Operation Desert Shield in 1990 in response to Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait. That evolved into Operation Desert Storm, the invasion of Iraq in 1991. Moran wanted to do his part and was persistent in convincing an officer at the Retired Army Branch in St. Louis, to allow him to return to active duty. He was given casualty escort duty at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware.
As fate would have it, Moran was on duty when the 14th Quartermaster Detachment based in Hempfield was devastated by an Iraqi SCUD missile that hit their barracks in Saudi Arabia on Feb. 25, 1991. Less than a week after they had arrived in the country, 13 members of the unit died in the missile attack.
Moran escorted the body of Spc. Stephen Siko, 24, of Unity, back home.
"It was really quite an honor," Moran said.
On Friday, he and his wife will celebrate his 83rd birthday, with no plans to cap his recruiting career.
"I still love recruiting," Moran said.

Treason Act a sign that it's the season of Umno polls
YOURSAY 'I support the Treason Act, but it must be applied retrospectively. First to be charged is the one who removed the powers of the royalty in the first place.'
Minister Shafie backs Treason Act proposal
Multi Racial: Politicians are politicians. Most of them never do what they are supposed to do. They will do anything they think can win them some votes.
The Umno election is near and these politicians must be thinking that supporting such a Treason Act may win them some Malay support.
If Umno vice-president Mohd Shafie Apdal feels so strongly about this, where was he when former PM Dr Mahathir Mohamad proposed changes to the law to curb the rulers' powers? Wasn't that an act of treason?
I am not against anything which is good, but before we implement a new law, let's look at the following:
1) Is this Act more important as compared to massive corruption, which is causing this country to eventually go bankrupt if nothing is done?
2) Without this Act, is the institution of royalty in danger?
3) Are there sufficient Acts to protect the institution of royalty?
Let's do what is right and urgent, and not what is popular. Let's focus on what is of greater importance to Malaysians and Malaysia.
KiaSi-SiamSai: Indeed, we should also make a law that corruption is treason against the country.
Blackknight: Wow, such loyalty to the royal institution from someone who originates from a state that does not have any royalty.
I am sure Shafie had the Umno assembly in mind when he backed the proposal for the Treason Act. I am still waiting for the ex-Court of Appeal judge Mohd Noor Abdullah to be charged for sedition. You can't have one law for Umno supporters and another for the rest of us.
Dood: If the law were evenly applied, many Umno-BN leaders would have been hanged for treason a long time ago.
Geronimo: Good, I support the move of introducing the Treason Act, but it must be applied retrospectively. First to be charged is the person who removed the powers of the royalty in the first place.
Then we charge the person/s who allowed our sovereignty to be breached by allowing illegal immigrants to become citizens without proper vetting.
These are just starters. Fellow Malaysians can provide more instances where Umno had committed treason to the sultans and Agong. Remember, Umno, the blade cuts both ways.
Bamboo: Here's another Umno big gun posturing for the gallery of Umno delegates. We can always predict how Umno politicians behave according to the 'season'.
For general elections, they would show the moderate stand. During the Umno party election, they would flex their 'ultra' muscles to get elected and move up the hierarchy.
Cala: This is the art of abusing power by the powers-that-be. Whether the Umno-led BN regime is indeed the defender of the institution of royalty can be deciphered through a study of history.
First, in the past, one witnessed the erosion of power of the royalty after the constitution was amended, so much so that it has no say in the passage of law. Hence, for the Umno-led BN regime to claim that it is the defender of the institution of royalty is laughable, incredulous and illogical.
Second, the regime's evil intention can be seen through 'historical institutionalism', where the powers-that-be interpret, reinterpret, or outright amend/enact a law in a manner that suits the hidden objective (to curtail the growing influence of the opposition).
As an example, when Dr Mahathir Mohamad favoured Japanese companies, he introduced the 'Look East Policy' to justify his actions. Put simply, the regime is neither sincere nor committed as the defender of the institution of royalty.
Raja Chulan: Laws must not be made for the convenience of circumstances or situations. Laws must not also be made by those in power merely to use it as a tool/weapon to pursue and punish their political opponents.
All laws must serve the long-term national interest and its overall agenda. It should never be enacted to serve individuals or political parties for short-term political expediencies.
Why is it that an act suddenly a crime only when another person (not you) is the one who commits it, while a crime becomes non-criminal when you yourself commit it?
Whatsup: This is just another law to prosecute those not supporting the Umno evil regime using the flimsiest of excuse under the guise of protection of the royalty, which we all know is to protect the Umnoputras so that they can continue their crimes against the rakyat, country and, ironically, the royalty.
But the problem is this devil just can't be defeated, since its evil tentacles have spread far and wide, into every nook and cranny, and those who are weak fall easily to the evil path. How did we ever reach this pathetic stage?

I will be adding more detailed information about the business in the coming future; but for now I wanted to put a link to the photos:
Here are some photos of the outside of the building (please note that I have not come across any color photos; so if you have seen one, please let me know).
View from 9th Street 1956
Another view; I think along 9th Street, but I am not sure what the Ford Sign is for (help?)
This is a photo of what I think is the original shop (help?)
Another photo, showing what I remember as the back part of the shop, with the garage door to the right
And then a photo of the east side
And another one
but it doesn't look the same as the other one?
These are
photos of the bus stop that was torn down
to make room for the new shop.
Here is a second view
And here are pictures of the New Shop excavation:
Photo 1
Photo 2
Photo 3
I think this photo would be looking to the south?
And here is a photo of the
wall of the old shop that collapsed
during the excavation. This would have been the South wall of the building.
With a second photo of the now
somewhat drafty old shop building.

I was really curious as to why people were saying Hayden and Aaron for last, and I'm assuming it's based on the fact that they're the team that "falls apart" from arguing and gets lost driving. Since this was provided in some sort of promo, I don't think it means H/A are last. Last week's Lori/Bolo fast forward totally tripped me up, as well as Adam/Rebecca not being last, but I just have a feeling they'll be last this time.. ick.

The city of Phoenix is again planning to include pay raises for city employees next year, and once again Councilman Sal DiCiccio is raising a call for it to stop.
"They say the budget breaks even," DiCiccio said. "That's a set up. What they should do is take that out and say there's some extra dollars, where does the community want that to go? That's an important debate to have. If you include that automatically you'll never have a real debate on that."
In a memo from Assistant City Manager Ed Zuercher, the benefits are explained.
"The total compensation costs in the budget will follow the same practice as every year, which is to base costs on the current Council-adopted pay plan," Zuercher wrote. "Our budget will be developed assuming no increases in existing pay or benefits... Since merit pay and longevity pay are both a part of the current Council-adopted pay plan, they are assumed to continue for the purpose of developing the preliminary expenditure estimates.
"Of course, if merit and longevity is changed through collective bargaining, then the budget would also change in a corresponding manner.
"It's important to note that even if not changed, the total cost of merit and longevity could be slightly different next year (either higher or lower) based on the number of employees and their years of service."
Zuercher did mention in his memo to DiCiccio that the budget proposal is still being developed at this point, and that the Budget and Research Department is going through the current budget "line-by-line" with departments to ensure the budget contains only what is needed.
The preliminary estimate of 2012-13 costs will be presented to the City Council in late January or early February.
DiCiccio sent out an email after receiving Zuercher's memo. In it he congratulated the city for considering a zero-based budget, and then slammed city managers for still including pay raises in that budget.
"Here is the justification," DiCiccio wrote. "Because pay raises have been handed out every single year to government staff, that supposedly creates a new standard or baseline, and therefore pay raises should be included in every single budget. Huh?
"That isn't exactly what I or the public understand as zero-based budgeting. It's the exact opposite of zero-based budgeting. In my wildest dreams I never would have believed staff could create a new interpretation for the word 'zero.'"
DiCiccio's email called on residents to call the city and demand the pay raises be taken out.
According to Zuercher's memo, the benefits are still being negotiated.
"Any change in compensation and benefits are subject to negotiation with the unions/associations and ratification by the City Council," Zuercher wrote. "This process has just begun and will be fully under way in January and February."

Of Course The Duggars Took Photos Of Their Miscarried Baby And Tweeted Them
"Well, we sure as sugar wasn't going to let film go to waste!'
As many of you have wrote in, Tweeted, carrier pigeon'd me in the dick to tell me, Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar apparently took photos of their miscarried 20th child and proceeded to blast them all over the Internet along with displaying them at a memorial service. And absolutely none of this should be surprising to anyone with even a remote knowledge of Christian pro-life propaganda. TMZ reports:
The Duggars held a memorial today at their church in Arkansas, where they distributed the above photographs — containing messages like, "There is no foot too small that it cannot leave an imprint on this world."
The photos were first posted on Twitter by a family member — and then surfaced on a fan site.
Again, growing up in a deeply religious household, I'm not at all surprised the Duggars are waving around photos of their dead baby – especially the feet, a prominent symbol in pro-life imagery – because as everyone knows, abortion is evil except of course when God does it. He worked really hard for that scholarship, you understand.

Thursday Thirteen: Weird Week Edition
It has been a week in the Cookie Jar where it seems as though everything has just gone...weird.
1. We found some actual, genuine, pot in a herbal remedy book that Jake signed out from the library. Seriously. The real stuff, that you could smoke. We didn't.
2. I gained 8 pounds in six days.
3. My work place caught fire.
4. We discovered that our side gate is continually being left open by some mysterious presence who has a dog and lets them poop in our backyard.
5. I watched American Idol and couldn't help but wonder if one of the contestants wasn't a drag queen in a former life. He's just too pretty.
6. During the show I fell asleep and had a dream that he was dressed in plumes, makeup, and tights, singing "It's Raining Men" in Vegas.
7. There was that eclipse thing. Maybe I should blame it all on the moon.
8. I lost the 8 lbs I had gained in 3 days.
9. I have craved peanut butter like mad for an entire week even though it makes me sick because I'm peanut intolerant.
10. I keep trying to add minutes to my cell phone, but all I keep getting on the website is that the site is out of service. For three days?
11. The BC government has brought in a carbon tax and even though it doesn't come into effect until July, gas has already gone up more then 10 cents a liter.
12. Jake can't get in to see an allergist here until August. Call the city and sweet talk, he's in there in April.
13. The President's Choice en Papillote commercial is driving me insane. Every time it comes on TV poor Hubs hears me yell, "It's SHRIMP, you morons, not SHRIMPS!!!"

I know they sell coupons for adult beverages that you can order and have sent to cabins, is there a way you can order them and have them mailed to you? I have a few clients going on Carnival soon and would rather just hand them to my clients than ask what ship, what port, what date, ECT??
Carnival does not show any option other than delivery aboard the ship. I'd say call the gift line at 1-800-522-7648 and ask if they can mail them to you. I've never seen this question before, so I don't know for sure.
Bem1962, Please let us know what you find out. I've never asked them that before, or seen it asked either. It is a very thoughtful idea.
Can't you just give them some "Fun Ship Dollars"?. You can order them in advance and they are available in different denominations.
Ok, Sorry it took so long to get back, but I just called, and Drink tickets can NOT be ordered and mailed... But fun ship bucks can be ordered and mailed if you order at least 3 weeks ahead.
Thanks Bem1962, for posting back about this. I didn't think they would, but you never know until you ask.
Just found out "fun ship dollars" are credits that are posted to sign and sail card, like a gift certificate, nothing they can hold in hand , example is Disney has mickey dollars, a bill you can use, and hold in hand and pay at any counter , for fun ship dollars you need same info as if going to buy drink coupons,,, http://cruise-chat.com/groupee_commo...icon_frown.gif http://cruise-chat.com/groupee_commo...icon_frown.gif

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Four people are in custody after shots were fired from a truck Saturday in Arlington, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.
Police said around 4 p.m. they responded to home in the 6800 block of King Arthur Drive North. Once officials got there police said they spotted four people driving from the scene in a white truck.
Police were able to catch two of the suspects a mile away on Rogero Road. The other two ran away but were captured a short time later at a home on Eastwood Lane.
Police believe the driver of the truck is the one who fired the shots. They said he lives at a home off King Arthur Drive.
Police believe the suspect that was in the front passenger seat is a juvenile.
"We surrounded the house and were able to talk out all of the suspects from that residence and now we are in the process of investigating and trying to find out what happened. We recovered one firearm and there are still possibly other firearms that are outstanding." said Sgt. Greg Foxworth with JSO.
Police said one gun was recovered and more may be outstanding.

ANAHEIM – Bob Murray has got a lot to sit back and crow about these days but it isn't in his nature to puff his chest out.
His team is atop the entire NHL and his roster is bursting at the seams with talent. And while caution is often present in his voice, Murray can't downplay the Ducks' roaring 15-3-1 start as the 2013-14 season is nearly one-quarter through.
"The guys are sticking together through the injuries," the Ducks' general manager said. "And as tough as it has been, in all those things can be a silver lining. I think it's brought this team further closer together.
"They're gutting it out. They're sticking together and they believe in one another. They know the kind of game they have to play to have a chance and they're sticking to their guns."
The Ducks have continued to roll along even as they seem to lose players by the game. Ryan Getzlaf sat out Sunday night's 3-1 win over Vancouver, joining goalie Viktor Fasth and fellow forwards Saku Koivu and Jakob Silfverberg on the sidelines.
Getzlaf's injury will not keep him from joining the team on its four-game trip that begins Tuesday night at Florida. Yet they compensated once again for those who are missing.
"I think it's nothing new for us," said center Nick Bonino, whose fifth goal of the season was a winner Sunday. "You see the way our road trip went. We lost a guy in three straight games. We have had guys step in all year.
"We've got a lot of character. We've got a lot of depth. Not only on the team but in the organization. It showed tonight."
Not too long ago, the Ducks were so devoid of depth that their roster contained an aging and fading Jason Blake, bargain-bin pickups in Niklas Hagman and Mark Bell and journeymen Rod Pelley and Andrew Gordon.
These days, the Ducks have watched first-round picks Emerson Etem and Kyle Palmieri mature into everyday players and have seen other first-rounders Peter Holland and Rickard Rakell make contributions.
The re-emergence of Devante Smith-Pelly and development of Patrick Maroon have given the Ducks four productive forward lines. And the emergence of rookies Hampus Lindholm and Sami Vatanen has been a big boost to a once-suspect defense corps.
"It's nice to have," Murray said, speaking of the depth. "It's the thing you build for. As we've said for a few years here, we're slowly trying to gain assets. Finally, you're seeing the patience of the group in sticking with the young players.
"The development of our minor-league system has been outstanding. They've developed the kids and they continue to develop the kids. It's a good situation to have, no doubt about it."
The depth in goal likely has other general managers salivating. Jonas Hiller remains the erstwhile starter but can also become an unrestricted free agent. Hiller's future – both immediate and long-term – has become a hot topic of speculation.
It arises from the presence of Fasth and the sudden emergence of Frederik Andersen, who has gone 6-0 while Fasth has nursed a nagging lower-body injury. Andersen stopped 35 Vancouver shots on Sunday.
Add that the Ducks have eight defensemen on their roster and it has led many to think Murray has to make a move simply to clear a logjam somewhere. Not so fast.
"The boys have played so well, they've put me in a position where I feel no pressure to do anything," Murray said. "I'm going scouting next week. That's what I'm doing. I'm going to pay attention to that part of my job.
"If a guy doesn't want to be here, then we're not going to keep them here. So far, this group has been … they're all in. They feel good about themselves and the team. Hopefully that continues."
Murray said that his cell phone isn't ringing any more than normal but added that the quantity of conversations with fellow general managers might start to pick up soon.
"It's just business as usual," he said. "It happens every year at the 20-game mark. There starts to be a few more calls. All it is are guys doing their jobs. You wait and see what you have for the first 15 to 25 games. You figure out your team and the other guys figure out their teams.
"Guys start to call around and see what's going on with everybody else in the league. Nothing's different. It's business as usual."

MAY I make a heartfelt plea to all Malvern Hills District Council elected councillors.
Please do what you can to restore democracy to this beautiful area in which we live.
First we have the completely undemocratic way in which the South Worcestershire Development Plan was given the go-ahead, and now we have the totally undemocratic way wheelie bins have been given the goahead.
Is it not time a investigation was instigated into the undemocratic behaviour of the leadership?
And then subsequently for councillors who stand up for democracy to remove Councillors Hughes, Swinburn, and Groves from their positions, so that democracy can be restored to our beautiful town once and for all.

A*STAR scientists have for the first time, identified that precise regulation of polyamine levels is critical for embryonic stem cell (ESC) self-renewal the ability of ESCs to divide indefinitely and directed differentiation. This paper is crucial for better understanding of ESC regulation and was published in the journal Genes & Development on March 1 by the team of scientists from the Institute of Medical Biology (IMB), a research institute under the Agency for Science, Technology and Research.
Embryonic stem cells hold great potential for the development of cellular therapies, where stem cells are used to repair tissue damaged by disease or trauma. This is due to their unique ability to renew themselves and differentiate into any specific types of cell in the body. One of the challenges with cellular therapies is ensuring that ESCs are fully and efficiently differentiated into the correct cell type. This study sheds light on understanding how ESCs are regulated, which is essential to overcome these challenges and turn the vision of cell therapies into reality.
Using a mouse model, the team of scientists from IMB showed that high levels of Amd1, a key enzyme in the polyamine synthesis pathway, is essential for maintenance of the ESC state and self renewal of ESCs. To further demonstrate the critical role of Amd1 in ESC self-renewal, the scientists showed that increasing Amd1 levels led to delayed ESC differentiation. The research also revealed that downregulation of Amd1 was necessary for differentiation of ESCs into neural precursor cells and that Amd1 is translationally regulated by a micro-RNA (miRNA), the first ever demonstration of miRNA-mediated regulation of the polyamine pathway.
While the polyamine pathway is well established and polyamines are known to be important in cancer and cell proliferation, their role in ESC regulation until now was unknown. This novel discovery, linking polyamine regulation to ESC biology, came about when the team set up a genome-wide screen to look for mRNAs under translational control in order to identify new regulators of ESC differentiation to neural precursor cells.
Dr Leah Vardy, Principle Investigator at the IMB and lead author of the paper, said, The polyamines that Amd1 regulate have the potential to regulate many different aspects of self renewal and differentiation. The next step is to understand in more detail the molecular targets of these polyamines both in embryonic stem cells and cells differentiating to different cellular lineages. It is possible that manipulation of polyamine levels in embryonic stem cells through inhibitors or activators of the pathway could help direct the differentiation of embryonic stem cells to more clinically useful cell types.
Prof. Birgitte Lane, Executive Director of IMB, said, This is a fine piece of fundamental research that will have breakthrough consequences in many areas and can bring about far-reaching applications. Developing cellular therapies is just one long-term clinical benefit of understanding ESC biology, which can also help develop stem cell systems for disease modeling, developing new drugs as well as a tool for researchers to answer other biological questions.

More information:
The research findings described in this news release can be found in the 29 Feb 2012 issue of Genes and Development under the title, AMD1 is essential for ESC self-renewal and is translationally down-regulated on differentiation to neural precursor cells by Dawei Zhang, et al.

Parsley Pesto
Recipe by English_Rose
Make this alternative to normal basil pesto when basil is not available or when you just fancy a change! Use in the same way as normal pesto sauce.
Top Review by The_Swedish_Chef
Lovely, clean and crisp taste! Such a wonderful alternative to that old stand-by...BASIL pesto! I made this two ways: exactly as written, with that garlic and exactly as written, minus the garlic. We actually preferred the garlic-free version so that the less aggressive taste of the parsley came through more clearly. I served this over whole wheat pasta with sauteed cherry tomatoes and diced, roasted chicken. You couldn't ask for anything simpler to make or more healthy! Made for Kittencal's Herb Tag Game: http://kittencalskitchen.com/forum/index.php?topic=2432.0

Have Honda Questions? Ask a Honda Repair Expert.
Ok, thanks. We need to get these misfire codes fixed first as they will trigger the TCS light. The most common cause of multiple misfire codes are
1. Clogged egr ports
2. mis adjusted valve clearance
On a side note, I would recommend removing the synthetic fluid from the trans. Honda recommends only Honda ATF-Z1. I have seen aftermarket fluid cause problems in Honda tranny's.

About the Book
I'm trying out a new concept with this book, on one hand, it's a complete image catalog for the 108 photographs that make up my first stock image collection, on the other hand ... it's a cool 2009 Diary with two weeks to a page and lots of space for monthly notes. USA and UK national holidays are also noted.
The title, Falling-light comes from a common element in all the photographs, the early evening sun, setting on the varied post-war buildings of London's north and south banks of the Thames, sometimes looking magnificent, sometimes catching the haze as the sun pierces the seedy back streets. It's a must for anyone who loves London.
All the images from the book are available to purchase from my website:
www.imagedivision.co.uk , as are the Diary pages in PDF format.

About the Creator
Gerald Peake was formerly a designer for the Habitat group and an art director for Conran Associates. His work there was seminal in creating the sixties style in the UK. Later he joined a highly ambitious, design orientated advertising agency in London's Bedford Row where he gained a valuable insight into the mechanics of agency life, working on the UK's most successful brands. The agency, McCormick Richards, later became part of the global Publicis Group. 1980 saw the formation of Gerald Peake Design, a move to a new London studio and the Boots Company as one of his main clients.

Farming 4 Hunger, Inc. is teaming up with Calvert Memorial Hospital and its partners to sponsor a 5K walk/run on May 11 at Serenity Farms in Benedict to raise funds that will be used to grow produce for area food pantries. The family friendly event is also intended to raise awareness about the importance of eating fruits and vegetables to fight disease and obesity.
Organizers are hoping to attract a wide variety of walkers and runners and are encouraging all ages, including parents with children, to come out in support of a great cause. The cross-country course winds through a working farm complete with farm animals and rolling fields along the Patuxent River.
Those who sign up for the 5K before May 1 pay the "early bid" fee of $30 and are guaranteed a race T-shirt. The fee on race day is $40. The event is free for ages 12 and under. Go to www.active.com to register online or visit www.farming4hunger.com for mail-in registration. The race begins at 9 a.m. with a warm-up by 5K sponsor World Gym. Check-in begins at 7 a.m.
"I want participants to know their footsteps are going to put food on people's tables," said Bernie Fowler, Jr. who founded the local non-profit Farming 4 Hunger. According to local statistics, 10,000 families in Calvert County rely on local food pantries to provide their next meal. Nearly, 50 percent of those who go without food are children.
Last year, the all-volunteer organization provided over 400,000 pounds of fresh fruits and vegetables, which was distributed to families in Southern Maryland. Their goal for this year is two million pounds. That's a lot of corn, green beans, kale, sweet and white potatoes, squash, tomatoes, turnips and zucchini but it's only a fraction of what's needed, according to Fowler.
"The Maryland Food Bank and the Capital Food Bank are looking for 29 million pounds of fresh produce this year," he said. They distribute to End Hunger in Calvert and the Southern Maryland Food Bank who in turn supply the smaller food pantries.
According to Fowler, proceeds from the 5K will go directly toward the operational cost of raising produce for the region. At the same time, it is intended to shine a spotlight on the need for fresh fruits and vegetables to maintain good nutrition.
"This partnership is a natural fit for us," said Margaret Fowler, director of the CMH community wellness program. "It is all about addressing chronic disease at its roots."
"By joining together with others who are committed to wellness," she said, "we're able to encourage more people to make healthy choices and adopt healthy behaviors. Ultimately, it leads to building healthier lives and reducing the incidence of chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease in our community."
Calvert Memorial Hospital will be offering free health screenings and educational displays throughout the event. Be sure to check out the Calvert Can: Eat Right, Move More table at the event. 5K participants can take advantage of Vitabot , an online meal planning and nutritional analysis program for 14 days for free.
CMH offers a wide array of programs that support the "Move More" national initiative. The race would be a great way to start a Walk Off Weight (W.O.W.) program with your family, friends or coworkers. Stop by the hospital's wellness stations and get your height, weight and body composition as well as a W.O.W. booklet.
Don't need to lose weight but want to become more active. Sign up for the Presidential Active Lifestyle Award (PALA) and the race will count as getting your recommended daily amount of physical activity.
Starting in June, you can also volunteer at Farming 4 Hunger to help harvest, package and ship out fresh produce for families in need. Burn extra calories while making a difference in the lives of so many in our community.

Very PleasedI know there is no final word on cellulite, what causes it, and long term effective treatments. However, Ihave been embarrased by my cottage cheese thighs for far too long (and I'm only 18!) so I figured I'd give this a shot. I actually really LOVE this stuff.

Better than MostI have tried almost every cellulite cream out there. I gave up for awhile but decided to try this when it came out. It seems to help a little. I feel better when I use it vs. when I don't. It smells good and leaves legs smooth. I still have dimples as there really is not a miracle cure.

Works great!I've been using this since October, and have gotten fantastic results. I'm very thin, but do have some cellulite on my thighs and tummy. I started working out two months ago and changed my diet. When I didn't work out/eat healthy, if I missed a day applying the cream I noticed my skin got looser fast, so you do have to use it everyday, but if you're really serious about changing your body, definit...read moreely eat better and do exercises. Lunges for only 20 minutes a day make a huge difference and make you feel so much better about yourself. I've never been one for working out but after seeing my results, I've begun to feel happier with my body, the way I look and the way I feel. Honestly, I don't think I would have started being as active as I have become if I didn't see results with this gel. It really got me to see that I CAN have the body that I want. It's important that you really rub it in though. The friction will break up the fat so your body can start to flush it out and if you don't rub it in completely it doesn't work as well and leaves you all sticky, so really work it in there! I also suggest drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day and stretching in the morning to increase circulation. This product will help REDUCE the look of cellulite, but you really want to eliminate it and diet and exercise along with this product get the job done. I recommend it to anyone. — 8 years, 3 months agoBerkoKJ | 1 reviews

If You Work, It Works!I just had to negate the negative comments about this product. If you are looking for a miracle potion that melts away cellulite with no effort on your part, this is not the product for you. However, if you are willing to put in some effort, this product will be a Godsend. I am a very petite (5'2", 112 lbs) personal trainer that started having problems with cellulite after 30.

With consistency (as with anything involving changing body shape), you can see a difference. So, before reading the negative reviews, take into account other lifestyle factors that influence cellulite (high fat and high sugar diets, lack of exercise, etc.) I would venture to say that those who state that it did not work probably have poor diets and are not getting enough exercise. Combined with exercise, a decent diet and consistency, this product is much better than any other OTC cellulite product on the market. — 8 years, 3 months agoTinyBlu | 1 reviews

worthless LOL
By dumb buy
from Park City , Utah
what a waste of money I assembled it and when I put my cycle in it the bike tip over and it was supported by the spokes probably ok but I have nice bikes and I take care of them did not want my bike leaning and supported on the spokes
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Too flimsy
By Larry

Used it in the car and the house to hold bike. I guess ok for very light use, but mine broke on the 3d use. Made all of plastic except for steel hardware.

Quite good for the price~
By Campy Richard
from Champaign, IL
No question, for less than $20, it's the best on the market. Costing more is the offering from Feedback Sports, but again, it costs more than twice as much.I use this for a bike that does not get a lot of use. It can be tricky getting the wheel in the exact spot to hold it. If I were going to use such a stand for an every day bike, I would buy something else.Still, for my use, it is perfect.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Simple and clean
By k
from New Hampshirre
This stand fits narrow and wide tires (though it requires disassembly to make large adjustments). It doesn't get in the way and is adequately stable for parking the bike indoors. Side to side stability comes from pressure against the spokes so I treat it gently. If used on the rear, the derailleur needs to be a few cogs out from 1st gear.It serves my need perfectly.

The Milblog Study – Part IIPosted by Yankee Sailor on 27Apr07.
Sean Lawson's
For my own part, what I've been able to do has ebbed and flowed with time. Most frequently this is because of who I am and what I'm doing in the Navy. If I were a second class petty officer on a ship out of Norfolk, the odds of someone fingering me would be small and I'd be more free to comment on some things. But, as a fairly senior officer serving in a unique position in the Navy worldwide, the veil of anonymity is thin and fragile.
And anonymity, for me at least, is not about being able to say things that are outside of the rules. It has to do with being able to do my job without worrying that my boss is reading my blog and agrees or disagrees with me. And it's also about not having to worry about whether subordinates and peers do so, either. So long as I blog with anonymity, my blogging introduces no additional pressures on my work from above or below.
Finally, as fellow milbloggers have come and gone due to the institutional pressure of balancing freedom of expression with military law and regulations, I've tailored my content to ensure I'm on the right side of the rules. Some call it censorship, but I call it survival, because for me at least, while the validity of my opinions matter, I blog because I like it and because I think it serves a purpose, not because I have an axe to grind.
With respect to milblogging in general, the practice has, of course, been altered by the aforementioned institutional pressures. Most milbloggers are more cautious about the things they post now than was the case two or three years ago. Also, I think most of the "big names" in milblogging these days are mostly retired or reserve folks, because they have the freedom to be more ontroversial. In other words, they can really talk politics, and politics gets the real traffic in the Blogosphere.
You won't find people like me,

Johannesburg - A public prosecutor was arrested on Tuesday after he allegedly withdrew a court case in exchange for cash, KwaZulu-Natal police said.
He allegedly withdrew drunk-driving charges against a man before he could appear in court, spokesperson Colonel Vincent Mdunge said in a statement.
The suspect had been arrested for alleged drunk driving on Monday. Tests showed he was over the legal blood alcohol limit. He was charged and released on R3 000 bail.
On Tuesday, the prosecutor stamped and signed the suspect's bail slip, instructed him to collect his bail refund and pay him R1 000 to make the case disappear. The man called the police and a trap was set for the prosecutor at the Estcourt Magistrate's Court.
The 29-year-old was arrested after he collected the R1 000.
He was expected to appear in the same court on Wednesday on corruption charges. - Sapa

We are very pleased to announce that Eric Hines has placed 5th in the National Geographic Best Night-Sky Pictures of 2012.
From the National Geographic website:
A country road in Wyoming parallels the band of the Milky Way in a summertime shot by photographer Eric Hines. "Spending the nights under the stars in some of the most remote places in the U.S. is what keeps me going," Hines said in an email.
In general, TWAN founder Tafreshi said, "in Earth-and-sky photography we capture things which are mostly visible to unaided eyes, and the main effort is to show what was experienced by the eyes of photographer at the scene.
"I'm very pleased that our highly experienced judging team in the 2012 contest voted for more natural-looking images."

Hello, I want to ask a question about the power supply of your fireware grabber. For some reason, we don't want the grabber using the power provided from serial bus of the desktop. Instead, use an external DC power like we usually do when the grabber is plugged to a laptop. So if I give the grabber the external power, which power source does it use? Is it safe to cut off the power pins inside the 6-pin cable?
Thanks a lot
Thanks a lot

"He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?" (Romans 8:32).
As the old man unwrapped the package, the paper gave way to reveal a portrait of the man's son, which the soldier had painted. Though the world would never consider it the work of a genius, the painting featured the young man's face in striking detail.
Overcome with emotion, the man thanked the soldier, promising to hang the picture above the fireplace. A few hours later, after the soldier had departed, the old man set about his task. True to his word, the painting went above the fireplace, pushing aside thousands of dollars of paintings. And then the man sat in his chair and spent Christmas gazing at the gift he had been given.
The following spring, the old man became ill and passed away. The art world was in high anticipation! According to the will of the old man, all of the art would be auctioned on Christmas day, the day he had received his greatest gift.
The day soon arrived and art collectors from around the world gathered to bid on some of the world's most spectacular paintings. Dreams would be fulfilled this day; greatness would be achieved as many would claim "I have the greatest collection." The auction began with a painting that was not on any museum's list. It was the painting of the man's son.
The auctioneer asked for an opening bid. The room was silent. "Who will open the bidding with $100?" he asked. Minutes passed. No one spoke. From the back of the room came, "Who cares about that painting? It's just a picture of his son. Let's forget it and go on to the truly valuable items."
More voices echoed in agreement.
"No, we have to sell this one first," replied the auctioneer. "Now, who will take the son?"
Finally, a friend of the old man spoke. "Will you take fifty dollars for the painting? That's all I have. I knew the boy, so I'd like to have it.
"I have a bid of fifty dollars," called the auctioneer. "Will anyone go higher?"
After more silence, the auctioneer said, "Going once, going twice. Gone."
The gavel fell. Cheers filled the room and someone exclaimed, "Now we can get on with it and we can bid on these great treasures!" The auctioneer looked at the audience and announced that the auction was over.
Stunned disbelief quieted the room. Someone spoke up and asked, "What do you mean it's over? What about all of these paintings? There are millions of dollars of art here! We demand that you explain what's going on!"
"It's very simple," the auctioneer replied. "According to the will of the father, whoever takes the son . . . gets it all."
The Bible says, "He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?" (Romans 8:32). Receive Jesus into your life, and you get everything that God has to give!
Take the Son, and get it all!
Thank You for 2013!
