text: Johannesburg - Tefu Mashamaite and Lehlohonolo Majoro scored Kaizer Chiefs' 14th and 15th goal of the Absa Premiership season as the Soweto Giants did away with Chippa United, beating the PSL rookies United 2-0 at Soccer City on Saturday night. The first 45 minutes saw the Amakhosi firmly in control as they dictated the midfield battle and almost create chances in front of goal at will. Siphiwe Tshabalala and Reneilwe Letsholonyane in particular were combing well and creating havoc for the Chippa team with their defence splitting passes. Still, despite their utter domination of the game, Chiefs' first real chance of the game came in the 36th minute when Letsholonyane slipped parker through on goal with a sublime pass on the edge of the box. Parker, though, saw his attempted toe-poke well smothered by Kassaly Daouda who was quick of his line to advert the danger. In the 39th minute, however, the home side would not be denied the opening goal of the match. Parker turned provider as he whipped in a tantalising corner-kick that saw Tefu Mashamaite rise above the Chippa defence and the goalkeeper, who came off his line to collect the ball, to head home into an empty net, 1-0. Parker should really have doubled his side's lead three minutes later when Letsholonyane again put him through on goal with a delicate pass, but the striker fired wide with just the keeper to beat. The second half continued in the same vein as Chiefs pressed forward in search of their second goal, but they were made to sweat before the result was finally put beyond doubt. The Amakhosi continued to dictate terms, but their finishing lacked something to be desired. In the 52nd minute only a brilliant save from Kassaly denied second half substitute, Majoro, a goal diving full stretch to the right to parry away a 16-yard shot form the striker. Ten minutes later and Mashamaite squandered a great chance to grab his second goal when he headed the ball wide of goal from close range after Kassaly parried the ball straight into his path from a corner-kick. Finally, Chiefs made their pressure tell in the 59th minute and put the result beyond doubt as Majoro scored his second goal in as many matches coming off the bench. Tshabalala provided a delicate cross from the right edge of the 18-yard box and Majoro did brilliantly getting ahead of his marker to head the ball home while on the move from ten-yards out, 2-0. The result means Chiefs remain unbeaten in the league and stay on top of the Absa Premiership standings.

Stephen Speicher has transcribed an answer Ayn Rand gave about religion in America.
This is from the Q & A after her 1961 speech, The Political Vacuum of Our Age, to The Matrix Table banquet of the National Fraternity for Women in Journalism Columbia Club, Indianapolis, Indiana.
In other words, you feel that religion is very instrumental in spreading altruism among people, and we cannot fight against altruism without fighting against the power of religion. Is this your question?
Well, I would say this. particularly in America, religion is very non-mystical.
Religious teachers predominantly in America, compared to Europe, are good healthy materialists. They would go with common sense. They would not stand in the way, er, if you want my impression of the general run, the majority of religious people in this country, they would not make an issue of mystic faith out of the idea of jumping into a cannibal's pot and giving away your last shirt to the backward people in the world. A great many religious leaders are teaching this today, but it is because their own politics are leftist.
It is not intrinsic to religion, or, rather, there is a great many historical and philosophical connections between the altruist morality and most religions, but, that is not the real function of religion in this country, and you would not find too much opposition and, even among some individuals, you will find support (as I was very pleased and astonished to hear today, and the gentlemen knows whom I am acknowledging).
There are rational religious people.
I would personally say, no, if you wanted to be a full Objectivist you could not reconcile this with religion. But that does not mean that religious people cannot be individualists and cannot fight for freedom. They can, and this country is the best proof of it.
But, so long as a country is not under a dictatorship, a trend, an intellectual trend, can be turned peacefully, particularly in a country like the United States, which was fundamentally based on the ideas of freedom.
It would be harder in Europe, where they are traditionally statist, where freedom is a kind of exception, where the basic subconscious values are all statist in one form or another.
Not here, and I would take the last election as proof of it. Here people bear too much, too innocently and too naively.
But I don't think any totalitarian dictatorship would ever hold here. Because under all their errors the American people's basic premise is freedom. That is the unspoken emotion, the emotional sense of life atmosphere in this country.
And traditionally, historically, the American people can be pushed just so far, and then they stop it.
That was 45 years ago. Has the American spirit changed significantly since then? Does what Ayn Rand said back then still apply today?
From what I observed, speaking with Christian Americans during my 2 trips to the USA, I believe it does.
Many fellow Objectivists, however, including Leonard Peikoff, believe otherwise and are urging Objectivists to vote for the Democratic Party.
They say that voting for the Republican Party which supposedly "stands for religion" would "push the U.S. toward disaster, i.e., theocracy, not in 50 years, but, frighteningly, much sooner".
I have yet to see any evidence to support this.
Ayn Rand still rules.
I urge American Objectivists to vote for the Republican Party on Tuesday.

Happy Sunday, Coal Gents.
The new 520 that Dave sold me is still working great. Wish I knew about coal years ago. The boiler temp stays nice now at 140 deg. Thats at 1 min of timer kick per 30 min. My daughter was not happy however with her shower temp . After thinking about it a few days it dawned on me that her showers are very long and mine are short. I never run low on hot water.
So I closed the bypass loop. Now the boiler keeps better temp at the top of its tank area were the DHW coil is. Daughter is not sending "NO HOT WATER" texts anymore.
Love this new rig !

LA PAZ,Bolivia (Sep. 2)
Hundreds of Polish Jews and Jewish refugees from Central Europe today volunteered for army service in behalf of the Allies as the first reaction to the Anglo-French declaration of war against Germany.
Jews of Polish origin besieged the Polish Consulate yesterday to offer their services in the Republic's defense, and by noon 500 had registered. Refugees and "stateless" Jews calling at the French and British consulates to volunteer. Although Bolivia is neutral in the European conflict, newspapers commented sympathetically on the volunteer movement.
Polish Jews here formed a "Polish Committee," which called a mass meeting and adopted a resolution pledging that "all Polish Jews will not stop at any sacrifice to defend the independence of their fatherland against Nazi barbarism, the greatest enemy of the Jewish people and of Poland, as well as of all European civilization."
The committee launched a fund-raising drive with the slogan, "Milk for Warsaw Children," to which many Bolivians contributed, as well as immigrants. The committee also is distributing information to the Bolivian press about Poland's history and the present situation.

Ahold is selling its 60% stake in Swedish supermarket group ICA to Hakon Invest for the equivalent of €2.45bn. The deal gives Hakon complete control of the group.
ICA was key to the book-keeping scandal which hit Ahold in 2003. The company's then-finance chief Michiel Meurs consolidated 100% of the supermarket chain's sales in Ahold's own books, even though the Dutch company did not own all the shares.
ICA has 2,200 supermarkets and franchise operations in Sweden, Norway and the Baltic states.
In a statement, Ahold said the transaction will have no direct impact on the joint activities of ICA and Ahold in areas such as sourcing and responsible retailing. 'These initiatives, which go back more than 30 years, are mutually beneficial and support business goals,' Ahold said.

Removing Rust Stains from Cement Patio
Over the winter, some metal patio furniture left rust stains on our patio. We've tried scrubbing it, but there are still some marks on the concrete. What's the best way to remove the rust stains without putting the plants that surround the patio or our children and pets at risk?
Use Pressure Washer to Remove Rust Stains
The pressure washer is our outdoor go to appliance for cleaning. It has been used to remove everything from paint drops to rust on our concrete. It really uses very little water for the cleaning it provides. Most of the time we use just plain water, but our pressure washer has a reservoir for additional cleaning agents like soap or TSP.
Try CLR®
Use a product called CLR®. You can use it to remove calcium, lime, and rust stains. Just wet the area, sprinkle some on, scrub it with a brush, and let it sit for 10 minutes or so.
Safe and Effective at Removing Rust Stains
Try Naval Jelly that is available at most hardware stores. It's safe and will do the job.

Vinegar Is Good at Removing Rust Stains
Vinegar dissolves rust. Straight vinegar or a vinegar paste should help.
Terry in Hoschton, GA
Worked for Tub. May Work for Patio.
I had an issue with rust stains on my tub from a can of shaving cream. I sprayed oven cleaner on the stain, let it sit for a few minutes, and wiped it up. This worked wonders with no harm to the surface of my tub. This should work on concrete as well. Plus, the spray should be able to penetrate the little grooves in the concrete.
This Did the Job at Removing Rust Stains!
I don't know if this will work on concrete, but give it a try. I just removed some rust stains from a carpet. I had nothing to lose and really didn't think it would work, but it did!
I made a paste of cream of tartar and a bit of water to a consistency similar to toothpaste. (Mine was a little thinner.) I spread it on the rust stain and let it sit overnight. I vacuumed it up and then rinsed with vinegar. For concrete, after the vinegar, I'd try just spraying with a hose.
Give Your Patio a Makeover
Why not use concrete stain and do the whole patio the same color? It's easier than trying to get that stain out and probably safer all around.
Elaine in NJ
See Immediate Results
I have an ancient bottle of Whink® Rust Stain Remover. I poured a very small amount on rust stains on concrete, and they immediately disappeared. This product can also be used on rust stains on color-fast clothing, carpeting, and toilet bowls. It contains hydrofluoric acid, so it is poisonous.

DAYTON, Ohio - The Temple marching band, tucked in the corner for the University Of Dayton Arena stands unfurled a giant banner as the NC State players walked off the court, dejected after a 76-72 loss in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
The sign read: "WOLFPACK YOUR BAGS." A year after the 'Pack captured the nation's attention with an improbable run to the Sweet 16 - the program's first since 2005 - they were bounced early by the Owls.
For seniors Richard Howell and Scott Wood, this was the final image of their careers: a season that started with so much promise ending earlier than anyone hoped, or expected.
"It sucked. It's the only way to put it," Wood said of his final walk off a collegiate basketball court. "Do we like getting here? Yes. That's the first step, but our program deserves championships, and that's where it needs to be."
But the immediate heartache should not outweigh the facts. Before last season's postseason run, the Wolfpack had missed five straight NCAA Tournaments. Now, two years in coach Mark Gottfried's tenure, the program is not just happy making the field - it wants to win, and those days are not far off.
"Scott and I are definitely leaving a better place than what we first got to NC State," Howell said. "It's been a great experience, especially these two years with Coach Gottfried and the type of turnaround that we all had. I know that with the recruits coming in and the players they still have now that they're going to be a dangerous team next year.
"The expectations rose high after last year," added Gottfried. "You're always in a position where we're trying to reach an expectation level, and we always seem to fall short. Even today, and this is disappointing. Yet, if you step back and look at it, there are a lot of good things happening."
But Friday afternoon, the fire that propelled the Wolfpack to last year's late-season surge was nowhere to be found in the first 20 minutes.
The Wolfpack were too lax on the defensive end of the floor, allowing the Owls to find open shooters all over the court. In the first half, Temple shot 53.3 percent from the floor (16-of-30) and 45.5 percent from beyond the arc (5-of-11), using the hot hands of forward Jake O'Brien (13 first-half points) and point guard Khalif Wyatt (11 first-half points) and a momentum-swinging 18-3 run to build a 16-point lead in the opening half.
"They shot the ball pretty well in the first half, and I don't think we did a good job contesting their shots," junior point guard Lorenzo Brown said. "We knew they had shooters, but I didn't think they could shoot like that. They did a good job shooting the ball."
Despite the fact that Temple sophomore Anthony Lee - a 6-9 forward who lends the Owls much-needed size and physicality inside - played just three minutes in the first half, the Owls scored 16 points in the paint.
"We just weren't motivated to play defense," junior forward C.J. Leslie said. "There's nothing else to be said - we didn't come out and play hard defense."
The Wolfpack also turned the ball over 10 times in the opening 20 minutes, due to being "careless," with the basketball, according to Brown, who finished with a team-high 22 points.
"I think we just needed to come out with a little better energy there to start the game," Wood said. "I think communication, we were just kind of lackadaisical, gave them some easy ones. Any time you let someone see a couple go down, they get some confidence. That's on me as a senior. I've got to do a better job of just getting them to pick it up. There's no reason that it's the NCAA championship and we should come out sluggish.
"We didn't play defense very well, and everyone in the room will admit it. It's one of those things where you have to come out with better energy and intensity. You can't give them those easy ones. If we would have started better defensively, it could have been a different story."
The Wolfpack nearly erased those first-half mistakes after the break.
Using a more focused defensive approach and an effort to get the ball into Leslie and Howell on the block, the Wolfpack clawed back into the game. After scoring 14 combined points in the first half, Leslie and Howell finished with 20 and 14, respectively.
"It's frustrating to have a start like we had," Gottfried said. "To see how well we could defend and score in the second half. We turned the ball over three or four times, shot 70 percent from the field and really defended them well. But we didn't in the first half. It's very disappointing. I don't know if there's one thing, but that is certainly not how we expected to play."
But in the end, Wyatt was too much for NC State to handle.
Wyatt scored a game-high 31 points - 20 of those coming in the second half - to help the Owls keep NC State at bay. Although the Wolfpack cut the lead down to three points with 10 second to play, they never regained control of the lead; their lone lead in the game was 2-0 in the opening minutes.
Wyatt scored six of the Owls final eight points, taking over when the game was in the balance.
"Today, Khalif Wyatt was the best player on the floor, period," Gottfried said. "He controlled tempo; he controlled the game.
"He really played well. He's a great player. We've played against really good guards this year, … and Khalif Wyatt is as good or better than all of them. He controls tempo, doesn't turn the ball over, plays like a senior, can score, can pass. He puts you in a lot of tough positions throughout the game with his ability to drive and to get you on his hip. He's a really good player. He controlled the game, I thought, today from a tempo standpoint."
Note: Leslie deflects NBA questions: Now that the 2012-13 season is officially over, Leslie will have a big decision to make: come back to NC State for his senior season, or enter the NBA Draft this summer.
But immediately after the loss to Temple, the decision was the last thing on his mind.
"Can I get time? I haven't even had time to think," he said. "It's something I will sit down and think about."
"That's going to be a family decision for him," added Wood. "Obviously, he has the talent to play in the pros. He has to make a smart decision, whatever he thinks is best. I'm sure he will make the right one."

Storyline: 16th-ranked Iowa State targets second place in the Big 12 when they visit Baylor at the Ferrell Center Tuesday.
The Breakdown: The Cyclones sit in a 4-way tie with Oklahoma, Texas and Kansas State for third place in the conference at 10-6 after falling 80-73 at Kansas State Saturday, despite a game-high 30 points and 16 rebounds from senior F Melvin Ejiim. Senior G DeAndre Kane also had a standout day, finishing with 24 points, 8 boards and 6 assists, but that's pretty much where the scoring ended as the rest of the team managed just 19 more points on 6 of 35 shooting. Iowa State was outshot from the floor 42.4 percent to 34.8 percent and from outside the arc 36.8 percent to 25.9 percent. Through 28 games, the Cyclones are averaging 83.2 ppg on 47.0 percent shooting. Ejiim leads the team with 18.9 ppg, followed by Kane at 16.6 ppg.

Meanwhile, Baylor improved to 7-9 for 7th place in the conference behind a 59-49 victory over Texas Tech Saturday. The Bears connected on 16 of 53 from the floor and 7 of 31 from downtown to the Red Raiders' 20 of 42 from the floor and 2 of 11 from distance. Baylor also dominated the glass 40-24 and converted on 20 of 25 from the free throw line. Junior F Royce O'Neal had a game high 16 points and 12 rebounds, senior G Brady Heslip scored 14 points, including 4 of 11 from downtown, and junior G Kenny Cherry added 9 points and 5 assists. On the season, the Bears are averaging 75.1 ppg on 45.2 percent shooting. Senior F Cory Jefferson leads the team with 13.0 ppg, followed by Heslip at 11.4 ppg.
Rick's Pick: The line in this matchup is currently set at -1 for Baylor. Iowa State scored a decisive 87-72 home victory over the Bears a couple months ago then proceeded to drop 4 of their next 5, as did Baylor incidentally. Both have reversed their fortunes lately as well, but the Cyclones have bigger guns, namely Ejiim and Kane. Look for Iowa Sate to bounce back here for the win.

A pro gives tips on using Groupon, CrowdSavings, etc...
Where do you go when you need a bargain on 20 units of Botox, or some half-price tapas, or a cheap spinal adjustment?
Probably Groupon. Or LivingSocial. Or CrowdSavings. Or DealOn. Or one of the hundreds of other deal-of-the-day websites that have infiltrated the coupon-crazy world since 2008.
Here's how they work. Thrifty folks, craving ways to save money and still enjoy life, buy coupons on a whim while a clock counts down. They pay up front for a voucher and redeem it for discounts at businesses ranging from chains like Nordstrom Rack to small operations like Bob's Pizza. I'm personally happy to report that I got a pair of $100 Michael Kors shoes from Nordstrom Rack for a grand total of $10 by combining Groupon with the clearance rack!
The group savings websites get a cut of what you pay. The businesses buy in because they hope customers will discover a gem and return. Tampabay.com recently introduced its own group savings site, Half Off Depot. And in 2011, Google announced it was preparing to launch its take, Google Offers.
The concept of group savings is on our minds more than ever, partly due to attention from Groupon's controversial 2011 Super Bowl commercial teasing the plight of Tibet. The websites also get a lot of free advertising from social media. People tweet deals, post them on Facebook, e-mail them to friends.
It can be overwhelming to navigate the offers. It can be nerve-wracking to know if you got a good deal, or if you caved to pressure and sunk $25 into an underwater basket weaving lesson.
Michelle Madhok there in the picture, an online shopping expert and founder of consumer sites SheFinds.com and MomFinds.com, is an avid fan of group savings sites. "I haven't paid full price for a haircut in a year thanks to these sites," she said. "And I've been going to high end salons."
But you still have to be wise. We talked to Madhok and got some tips to ensure you get the most out of your group savings experience.
- Look at the expiration date of the coupon. "Are you going to be able to use it by the time it expires?" Madhok said. "Some are a year and some are a month."
- Make sure the business offering services is reputable. Before you buy, do a quick online search to find reviews, recommendations and complaints. Madhok almost bought a voucher for a massage before reading web chatter from people who left the same facility grossed out by the conditions. "It's not a deal if it's a place that's not going to make you happy," said Madhok.
- Pay the same attention to the integrity of the coupon company. Will they refund your money if a place goes out of business? Or will they just offer you website credits?
- Read the fine print. Some vouchers can't be combined with other discounts, so if your cruise to the Bahamas was already on sale, your coupon might be worthless. Occasionally, businesses already offer better deals than the one that just arrived in your inbox.
- Make sure the business won't be so overwhelmed by traffic from the special offer that they can't make time to dye your hair or offer you a table for dinner.
- If all those e-mails get out of hand, try a site that herds the offers into a single page, like dealery.com or yipit.com. Madhok also compiles them on her own sites. Or route your sale e-mails into a separate folder. Review them on your lunch break when your head is clear and you can confidently decide if you need that half-price laser hair removal.

From 10 to 20 percent of pregnant women suffer from depression. Since depression's impact on both the mother and developing fetus can be profound, treating moderate to severe depression with antidepressants during pregnancy is generally recommended. However, a new study warns about increases in preterm deliveries and newborn disorders in infants whose mothers took antidepressants. Whether these risks were due to the antidepressants, the underlying depression, or other factors such as smoking could not be determined in this study.
In this study, infants exposed to the newer selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or the older tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) during pregnancy had a significant increase in preterm delivery. Also, full-term infants exposed to SSRIs during the third trimester had a higher risk of respiratory distress syndrome, endocrine and metabolic disturbances, low blood-sugar levels, temperature regulation disorders, and convulsions. Infants exposed to TCAs during the third trimester also had an increased risk for respiratory distress syndrome, endocrine and metabolic disturbances, and temperature regulation disorders.
Neither SSRIs nor TCAs were associated with an increased risk for congenital anomalies. Six percent of infants exposed in utero to SSRIs and 8 percent exposed to TCAs had feeding problems; approximately 0.7 percent of infants exposed in utero to either SSRIs or TCAs had convulsions.
Investigators at the HMO Research Network's Center for Education and Research in Therapeutics identified 2,201 women who were prescribed an antidepressant during pregnancy and who delivered an infant within 1 of 5 large managed care organizations. They analyzed the HMO databases to examine the association between use of TCAs and SSRIs by trimester with rates of congenital anomalies or perinatal complications compared with infants of mothers who were not prescribed antidepressants during pregnancy. The study was supported in part by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (HS10391).
More details are in "Risks of congenital malformations and perinatal events among infants exposed to antidepressant medications during pregnancy," by Robert L. Davis, M.D., M.P.H., David Rubanowice, B.S., Heather McPhillips, M.D., M.P.H., and others, in Pharmacoepidemiology and Drug Safety 16, pp. 1086-1094, 2007.

Nastasiuk went from gangly teen to CFLer
Beginning today, and then running every Saturday, the Examiner is profiling the nominees for induction into the Barrie Sports Hall of Fame, along with nominees for athlete and coach of the year. We begin today with Paul Nastasiuk.
When Paul Nastasiuk, a gangly teen, tried out for the first time for the Innisdale Invaders football team, he was unceremoniously cut -- along with about 100 others.
"I was a new kid; I had come from the old St. Joe's so nobody knew me and I was pretty shy back then," conceded Nastasiuk. "I knew a lot of other people were cut, so it wasn't a huge deal. I wasn't the kind to give up or quit."
So, when football tryouts rolled around the following fall, Nastasiuk was one of the first to sign up, looking to impress coaches Dave Mitchinson and Jim Brady. He did just that, cracking the lineup of a fledgling Invaders team that would win just one game that year.
"It was a new program that they were building," said Nastasiuk, the team's tailback and part-time punter.
Over the next three gridiron seasons, Nastasiuk became a go-to guy as the Invaders program developed into a winner. He would cap his third and final year with a strong season -- a win shy of a Georgian Bay title -- and win the school's coveted athlete of the year award.
It proved to be a stepping stone for Nastasiuk, who went on to Wilfrid Laurier University where, as a rookie, he had an unforgettable season.
The teen who was cut just years before helped the Golden Hawks to a stellar 6-1 season. But the team's success paled in comparison to Nastasiuk's individual achievements, as the newcomer won the Ontario University Athletics (OUA) and Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) rookie-of-the year awards. He was also named a second-team OUA all-star.
"I really have to thank Dave Mitchinson and Jim Brady; they hooked me up with the right people to get me to Laurier," Nastasiuk said. "They were great coaches, and I learned a lot at Innisdale."
At Laurier, Nastasiuk also learned a lot from legendary Canadian football hall of famer, Dave "Tuffy" Knight, the coach of the purple and gold that year. Looking back, Nastasiuk said the jump from high school to university was a quantum leap.
"I remember looking around the change-room and there were guys with full beards; they were huge," said Nastasiuk, who might have weighed 180 pounds soaking wet. "I wouldn't say I was intimidated, but it was an eye-opener."
Nastasiuk certainly didn't appear over-matched -- especially when a big break turned the spotlight on him. "That first year, I was slated to be the back-up wide receiver and I was fourth or fifth on the depth chart at tailback," recalled Nastasiuk. "But our starting tailback got injured and they needed someone with sure hands who could take the pitch-out because that was the type of offence we used then.
"I had fairly good hands," he understated "and I was fast, so they turned to me. I was in the right spot at the right time and I took advantage."
In his first game, he ran the ball for almost 150 yards. In the ensuing games, he would enjoy a pair of 200-plus yard conquests and score a pair of touchdowns during a magical season in Waterloo. Even then, Nastasiuk did not start thinking about a career in football.
"I was there to get an education; I wasn't thinking about playing football professionally," he said.
That would soon change, however. As Nastasiuk matured into a sure-handed, fleet-footed key to the team's success, CFL scouts started to take notice.
In his third year, he was invited to the CFL combine for draft-eligible players, where he impressed CFL scouts. He was later selected in the first round -- ninth overall -- by the B. C. Lions.
"From what people were saying, I was expecting to maybe go late in the second or in the third round, so that was totally unexpected," Nastasiuk said.
After two strong seasons with the Lions -- where coach Don Matthews and GM Adam Rita loved his sure hands and speed -- he was released when there was a regime change. He went to Ottawa in the equalization draft and then went back to the Lions before being released during an ownership crisis.
He was back helping out his alma mater in Waterloo when he got a call from Matthews, back at a CFL team's helm -- this time with the Argos.
That was 1991, when the CFL's flagship franchise had just been purchased by Bruce McNall, Wayne Gretzky and John Candy.
"That was an amazing year," Nastasiuk said.
The Argos went 13-5-0 and earned a home playoff contest against Winnipeg -- with a berth in the Grey Cup on the line. In that contest, a 42-3 Argos romp, Nastasiuk entered the CFL's record books, with an incredible five special team tackles.
"That was the first time the dome had ever sold out for football," Nastasiuk said. "That was just an incredible atmosphere. You know, I had been flirting with the idea of going to teacher's college when I got the call from Don Matthews. So, I looked at this as sort of my last kick at the can."
That kick at the can ended with a Grey Cup -- a 36-21 win over Calgary.
"As a kid, I watched the Grey Cup on TV, so to be there and to win a Grey Cup was phenomenal," he said. "That year in Toronto was definitely the most fun; it was close to home, we were winning... it was just great."
And now the Grey Cup winner, former OUA and CIS rookie of the year, has been nominated to become a member of the prestigious Barrie Sports Hall of Fame.
"It's quite an honour to be nominated," Nastasiuk said. "The hall of fame has an impressive list of athletes, so to be considered in the same breath as them is an honour."
But he is the first to admit that he doesn't dwell in the past.
"My kids joke that those are the old days," said Nastasiuk, who is now a teacher at St. Michael The Archangel School, where he teaches Grade 8.
These days, he has also turned to coaching. In years past, he has coached numerous teams at his school and last year helmed the flag football, basketball and track teams.
This winter, he will also be the head coach of the 'AAA' minor bantam hockey team.
"I don't play a lot of sports any more, but coaching keeps the competitive juices flowing; I really enjoy it," he said.
And he admits to understanding the Innisdale football coaches who cut him many years ago.
"I know that I've cut a kid who tried out for our flag football team who went on shine at high school," Nastasiuk said, with a laugh. "But I tell kids that I was cut, I was released twice, I was traded twice -- and that's OK. It happens.
"It's what you do in the face of that that counts."
This Saturday:Brittany Gray.

Paul Nastasiuk
A glance at Barrie Sports Hall of Fame nominee Paul Nastasiuk:
Paul Nastasiuk was born in Barrie in 1963 and started playing competitive football in Grade 10 at Innisdale Secondary School.
He went on to play with Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks. In his first year he won OUA and CIS rookie of the year award and was named OUA second-team all star.
In 1986, he was selected by the CFL's B. C. Lions in the first round (9th overall) where he played for two seasons before being selected by the Ottawa Rough Riders in the equalization draft. He was traded to the Toronto Argos where he won the 1991 Grey Cup and set a CFL record for most special team tackles in a playoff game with five in a 42-3 romp of Winnipeg at SkyDome.

Scream Series in the Works at MTV
Do you like scary TV shows? MTV does. After the success of its version of Teen Wolf, which returned for a second season last night, the network is looking to add another film franchise to its lineup: Scream. The Hollywood Reporter confirmed the rumors by finding out that former MTV executives will be executive producing the series. They're still searching for a head writer, and casting will follow, but no word has been given on how involved Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson will be, if at all.
Director Craven and writer Williamson first teamed up on the Scream franchise in 1996 for a slasher film that not only referenced the horror genre and made a boatload of money but also spawned a series of copycats. The film also produced three sequels, the fourth of which came out just last year and re-teamed Craven and Williamson after the writer didn't work on the third installment.
The films follow the misadventures of Sydney Prescott (Neve Campbell) who is continually hounded by people in the now infamous white mask trying to murder her, usually for the actions of her mother.

April 6 2011
Uihlein's week has been a fun blur
By Melanie Hauser, PGATOUR.COM Correspondent
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- Practice rounds with Geoff Ogilvy, Adam Scott and David Chung on Saturday. Check.
Tee it up with Rickie Fowler and Bubba Watson Sunday. Check.
Watch Oklahoma State teammates play -- and win -- Sunday afternoon at Forest Hills. Check. Check.
Monday? Don't ask. It's a blur. No, wait, Peter Uihlein said, that was a round with Fowler and Nathan Smith.
Tuesday it was Smith, Bo Van Pelt and Ryan Palmer. More young -- or young-ish -- guns.
Welcome to the world of the reigning U.S. Amateur champion, who'll be teeing it up with defending champ Phil Mickelson and former U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy Thursday morning.
"I think just being here is pretty special,'' Uihlein said. "Any time you can go out in the Masters and play as an amateur, it doesn't get any better than that. That pretty much takes the cake.''
Uihlein rode out Monday night's storm in the Crow's Nest on the property, but has moved to a house -- a full house he added -- that will include OSU coach Alan Bratton and his wife and Uihlein's girlfriend.
"Just a lot of people are coming in,'' he said, " so I'm going to stay over there with them."
This is the first time Uihlein has been to Augusta National, but he's gotten some sound advice.
"Yeah, I've been told that a lot, to not burn out, not try and work too hard and overdo it,'' he said. " It's kind of hard, the facilities are so great you want to be out there all the time. Yesterday was perfect, it was windy but you definitely wanted to be out there and you can over prepare and things like that.
"I've been trying to take good advice and play early and take some naps and relax in the afternoon, so I'm not burned out by Thursday or Friday."
The shot he really couldn't wait to hit for the first time? Other, of course, than his first tee shot?
"Twelve,'' he said. "Twelve is obviously one of the trademark holes of golf, that's for sure. I think just hitting that shot was pretty cool.''
The result? Not so much.
"I hit it in the water the first time I played,'' he said, drawing a chuckle from the room. " Right pin, I went for it."
Rookie mistake.
The first Masters the 21-year-old remembers watching? Tiger Woods' record-setting win in 1997.
"Actually it was on yesterday,'' he said. "I watched it again yesterday.
"He was hitting some short irons into those par 5s. That was pretty impressive. That was my first recollection."
Uihlein's goal this week?
"First and foremost have some fun, enjoy the experience and enjoy being out there with all of the patrons and everything, they are pretty special,'' he said. "Making the cut would be nice and being low amateur. That would be great but first and foremost, just have some fun.''
If he does make the cut? Well, then the dream is on.
"I think everybody kind of dreams of playing on Sunday afternoon at the Masters in contention. I think everybody has dreamt about it, at least one point in time."
That wouldn't just be a check. That would be an exclamation point.

My husband and I will be traveling to Costa Rica for 3 days for Christmas - arriving the early afternoon of Christmas day (Thursday) and leaving the early morning on the 28th (Sunday). We understand that is not very much time at all - we realized these few days would be the only vacation time available to us for awhile so we wanted to make the trip. We redeemed frequent flyer miles so it was very inexpensive. We are arriving and departing from SJO.
We are hoping for some advice and guidance on the best way to tackle these 3 days in order to maximize our experiences.
We are interested in the following types of activities:
- interacting with/observing animals (I'd love to get up close with a sloth)
- rain forest treks
- seeing the beaches (I'm an open-water diver but my husband is not, and neither of us are interested in surfing so it would just be a short trip to the water most likely)
- zip-lining
- gardens/parks

Christmas in Costa Rica - 3 days
My husband and I will be traveling to Costa Rica for 3 days for Christmas - arriving the early afternoon of Christmas day (Thursday) and leaving the early morning on the 28th (Sunday). We understand that is not very much time at all - we realized these few days would be the only vacation time available to us for awhile so we wanted to make the trip. We redeemed frequent flyer miles so it was very inexpensive. We are arriving and departing from SJO.

Manuel Antonio is a great beach destination. It's a pretty area with lots of hotel and restaurant choices, very easy access to wildlife, nice beaches, and a national park full of wildlife. Lots of adventure activities as well. We stayed at Tulemar Bungalows and loved it - they have their own beach, did a guided tour of the national park, sailing, the Damas Mangrove tour, and the Villa Vanilla spice tour - if you like gardens, you would love it, and they serve yummy treats at the end made with their own cinnamon, vanilla, etc.
If you want more off the grid, the Osa is really beautiful with great hiking and fantastic wildlife spotting. The area is more isolated, so a lot of people spend their entire trip at their lodge. We love Bosque del Cabo in that area. If you chose this option, you would want to take an in country flight from SJO down to Puerto Jimenez.

Thank you volcanogirl! Manuel Antonio looks promising. It appears as if it's about 2 1/2 hours away from SJO. What types of transportation is available? Since we are arriving Christmas Day I am concerned that options might be limited. Would it be better to spend the night in San Jose and then take the bus out in the morning (the 26th)? Do you know of any good moderately-priced tour companies or tour guides that could assist us?
Report Abuse
I just researched flights to Quepo, rather than spending 6 hours on a bus roundtrip (since we have such little time to work with) - that looks promising! I will discuss it with my husband, since even though it's much pricier ($260 total) it would allow us to enjoy MA much longer. It would also allow us to connect through SJO straight through so we'd arrive in the mid-afternoon on Christmas Day and give us a solid 48 hours there. And it appears once you arrive in Quepo it is an easy journey to MA so we could easily get a taxi or request a pick-up from our hotel.
So now the real question is - what is the best use of our time? Are there tours available where you can interact with the animals or are they just where the guide will take you through the National Park and you *hope* there are animals along the way? Should we plan on doing the NP for an entire day and save the beach/zip-line/etc for the other day?
Also, my husband likes collecting small bottles of sand from the places we visit. Is there any problem with that?
Thank you!

Yep, Nature Air and Sansa are the in country airlines. You could also drive yourselves, hire a private driver, or try to take the Interbus shuttle. The roads are in good shape between SJO and Manuel Antonio. We did a guided tour of the park with Manuel Antonio Expeditions; they are excellent. Also used them for the Damas mangrove tour. On both tours they spotted wildlife we would have walked right by. We've been to the national park there twice and both times we saw more capuchin monkeys than we could count. You can get fairly close to them because they're so used to people in that area. We also had lots of monkeys at our hotel, just swinging around in trees. We had a baby sloth fall out of a tree at our hotel, and our concierge and a guide got a ladder to put it back up in the tree, and when they got up there, there were two momma sloths, and they didn't know who to give the baby to. Sloths are pretty prevalent, but hard to spot on your own. I'd do a guided tour of the park just to ensure that you see everything. We used Juan Brenes from MAE that I mentioned above. He's great. If you want to swim, there's a beautiful beach inside the national park, so you can do the tour and then hit the beach if you want to. Then you could do adventure activities the next day. I don't know what the rules are regarding taking sand. I did it in Hawaii when we honeymooned. I just put it in a film canister. I would think it would be okay, but you could check with your hotel or guide to see if there are any local rules.

We also stayed at Tulemar and you're pretty much guaranteed to see wildlife on the property (availability may be an issue though). We saw capuchin and squirrel monkeys and both two and three toed sloths. We didn't even go into the national park. We also took a tour of Damas mangrove and saw capuchin monkeys and a silky anteater.
Report Abuse
Forgot to mention that we had a private driver from SJO to MA. I'm not sure how much time you'd really save by flying by the time you wait for the flight and transfer from Quepos to MA. Cost wise it's probably similar.
Report Abuse
Our experience was similar to Patty's; we also used a private driver. Saw capuchins and a silky anteater (maybe the same one!) on the mangrove tour. Sometimes the capuchins will even come aboard the boat because people feed them. MAE does not believe in feeding them, but they still come on the boat just in case.

Gift shop marks homecoming for Holz family
Gift shop marks homecoming for Holz family
Barbara and Paul Holz, owners of Patina Gift Store across from the French Gourmet restaurant, have come full circle.They're operating their retail shop out of the very same building at 957 Turquoise St. a youthful Paul once helped build.
"I was up there with 2-by-12s helping my dad construct it," Paul Holz said. "He ran his contracting business out of it for more than 40 years."
Now the couple's neighborhood-centered business specializes in accents for the home and garden.
"We have glass and serving dishes, stone, pots and things for the garden, " said Barbar Holz. "We are one of the biggest sellers in the county of Vera Bradley bags and accessories. We have Jay Strongwater frames and jewelry, Michael Aram exquisitely handmade metal pieces."
Patina also gift wraps all of its items.
"That's nice for people," Barbara Holz said.
The store's gift card selection is especially unique, offering humorous Patience Brewster cards.
The Holzs grew up in La Jolla, went to school, met and dated here. Now after running Point Loma Camera for many years, they've returned home.
Barbara Holz said Patina is a name her mother favored which means things that get better with age. That, she said, perfectly suited the image she wanted to project.
The couple said they love their new location across the street from the French Gourmet, which brings in lots of foot traffic.
Paul Holz said the shop is picking up business from previous customers of Bo Danica gift shop, which went out of business in the Village several months ago.
"People are saying, 'We were so sad when Bo Danica closed, but look what we've got here in our town.' We're very pleased with the way we've been received."
Store hours at Patina are Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

YouTube clip lands Marine dream date with famous actress
By: Ashley White
WILMINGTON – A dream will come true for one U.S. Marine, all thanks to social media.
According to published reports, actress Mila Kunis agreed to be by Sgt. Scott Moore's side at the Marine Corps Ball in November. Moore asked her to attend the ball through a YouTube video he shot while serving in Afghanistan.
"Hey Mila, it's me Sgt. Moore, but you can call me Scott," he said in the clip. "I just wanted to take a second out of my day to invite you to the Marine Corps Ball on Nov. 18 in Greenville, N.C. Take a second and think about it and get back to me by now."
According to Moore's YouTube page, the popular actress said yes. So it will be Moore, not Kunis' latest co-star Justin Timberlake, on her arm this fall.
Most of the people on Moore's page encouraged Kunis to go on the date, say

It seems odd that there are no good reviews of the new Bose Quiet Comfort 25, or QC25, out there. I hope this helps you – I bought these on the first day they came out and have been living with them for a short while now.
I've always been an audio fanatic, right from my childhood. The audio world has changed enormously in the last 15 years. Gone are the days when I would frequently sit at a desk at home with a CD player and listen to music on wired headphones. Gone are the days when I frequently sit at a desk at home listening to music!
These days, I mostly listen to music when traveling, in inhospitable locations and carrying a heavy load. Back in 1998 I bought a pair of Sennheiser HD-600 headphones, which have exquisite sound quality. They're useless in this post-modern age of commuter flights because they are open backed, which means your music leaks, and the world leaks into your ears.
My last pair of noise canceling headphones were lost and so in early September 2014, I walked through an airport terminal and spotted the QC25 on a shelf. They are understated, subtle, and very compact. I was immediately drawn to them.
Noise Canceling
I headed over to try them on and was somewhat underwhelmed – then I realize that the Active Noise Canceling (ANC) was switched off. I hit the switch and the world turned off. Gone was the loud terminal noise, and I was in a small quiet world of my own. Incredible. I listened to a few tracks of music and realized these would make my long weeks of travel much more pleasurable.
For that is where the QC25 excels: commuters, in planes and trains. It completely destroys hums and groans and aircraft engines and air conditioners. For people and voices, it's not as strong, but no ANC headphone is. But it is better than any other headphone on the market at ANC. The silence is deafening.
I've never been a huge fan of the Bose sound and the QuietComfort25 is no surprise here. The music is "OK" – the saxophone on Dire Straits' Your Latest Trick comes out nicely, and the coins clink melodically in Pink Floyd's Money. Turn up the bass a little with Faithless' God is a DJ and the Bose is in its comfort zone: HiFi, this is not.
But then you sit down in a seat of a plane and flip the switch, and the world turns off again. In that moment, you forgive the slightly brash mid-tones and slightly wooly base. This is a world of trade-offs and the QC25 delivers a wonderful balance.
The crucial point is because it is so quiet in your cocoon, you can turn the music down and hear details that you never hear from regular headphones. They sound much better than they have any right to sound when you are in a public place.
Living with the QC25
The packaging is exceptionally easy to live with, they fit into an 8.25″x5.75″x2″ box which fits nicely in a laptop bag, and it fits an airplane adapter and a spare AAA battery. Bose say it lasts 35 hours, but I'm not counting. One spare battery is enough for a week away from home.
The fit is sublime with a "protein leather" (an artificial, leather-like material that absorbs some sweat) covering. The 6.9oz cans fit comfortably on the head for long periods of time – say a 3-4 hour flight, or a noisy office day.
There's a replaceable 4'8″ cable with a microphone for phone calls and a volume/call switch, which is useful if you want to listen to music on your iPhone and don't want to switch cables when a call comes in. You can turn off the ANC during phone calls so your voice doesn't sound weird.
Bose make a big deal about this because the headphone continues to run even after you run out of battery (unlike the QuietComfort15) but the audio kinda sucks without the ANC, so I'm not so certain how useful that is (unless you want to make a call!).
QuietComfort 15 Owners
I suspect a lot of people who own QC15s are wondering if they should upgrade. I've used both headphones – a lot of airlines provide QC15s on long haul flights, and they are most excellent. The QC25s are easier to live with – they are smaller and more comfortable – but if I had spent good money on QC15s, the difference between the two models is not worth the price of a new pair.
One negative I found was that sometimes the headphone can motorboat – it starts to make a weird noise in the right ear. This must be an unintentional side-effect of the ANC technology, and may be a teething problem with the first few pairs. If it continues, I'll call Bose.
There's also a slight air pressure thing going on when you wear them. ANC headphones change the air pressure around your ears, and that can be bothersome.
If you are a traveler, commuter, spend time on a plane, or in a loud office, or outside, then go and try these out. They are the gold standard in Noise Canceling Headphones. They trash Sennheiser, Beats (yuck), Parrot and everyone else in this respect.
You pay for that luxury with a slightly mediocre audio experience. But when you are basking in the silence that envelops you with the QC25 on your head, in your own private world where nothing can disturb you, you'll put up with an average sound. Besides, I don't know about you but I listen to music on an iPhone, not a $1000 CD player.
But if you listen to music in a quiet place and want audiophile quality headphones, then don't waste your money on the Bose QuietComfort 25. They're not for you.

The newest installment of mediabistro.com's "Pitching an Agent" profiles Diane Stockwell of Globos Libros, a literary agency that focuses on the Hispanic market—which Stockwell first tapped into back in 1992, when she was an editorial assistant at Warner Books and the only one in the department who knew Spanish. When Stockwell (right) founded her own company in 2001, her original plan was to produce bilingual children's books and do an occasional freelance translation gig, but then a Chilean author asked for help placing a book, and then Stockwell began representing Univision's Dr. Isabel, an author she'd first published years ago at Kensington… and things took off from there. Now Globos Libros actively seeks other practical nonfiction books by authors with a strong presence in the Spanish-language media.

The police watchdog is investigating claims that one of Britain's most senior policemen met an undercover officer who spied on Stephen Lawrence's family.
The Independent Police Complaints Commission said it had started an investigation into allegations of "discreditable conduct and breaches of honesty and integrity" on the part of Metropolitan Police commander Richard Walton.
He was temporarily removed from his job as head of the counter-terrorism command SO15 in March following the publication of Mark Ellison QC's report into the original Lawrence murder investigation.

He revealed an undercover officer met Mr Walton, who was on Scotland Yard's Lawrence review team, in 1998. The IPCC will also investigate allegations of discreditable conduct by ex-officers, Robert Lambert and Colin Black.

Two unions have been tussling over jobs at the Port of Portland's Terminal 6. The National Labor Relations Board ruled Monday that the two jobs in question belong to the electrician's union (International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 48) and not the longshoremen of International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 8. Longshoremen have traditionally done the jobs of plugging and unplugging refrigerated shipping containers, but that was called into question when the port leased the terminal to a private operator.
All sides say the dispute is about more than just these two jobs; it's about principle and precedent.

text: I first heard of this Columbian run hole in the wall about 3 years ago. My Columbian friend said it was amazing. I have been a handful of times and cannot say how simply amazing this spot is. The owner features fresh fish (tonight we all had Mahi Mahi) in garlic sauce or creole. The sides are lovely rice, boiled or friend yucca, potato fries or plantains. You may combine two starches. The salad features fresh shredded veggies and tomato in a lovely light dressing. The drinks include fresh juices and of course we all had some Bacardi to enhance the flavours. (grin). Sadly we had no room for the homemade tres leche cake, or the rum flan. Another time..

Wildrose taking action about robocalls
Published Friday, April 20, 2012 4:01PM MDT
Wildrose leader Danielle Smith is accusing her opponents of using robot dialers to harass her supporters with fake messages about the party.
She says that robocalls have reared their ugly head mostly in Grande Prairie and that they are inciting voters against the Wildrose.
Smith claims to have a recording from the Wildrose Party which they say is legit, but then they spam people with the message, sometimes calling up to 30 times a day.
She thinks that someone is trying to turn voters against them but she's insistent that it isn't her party doing the calling.
"That doesn't make any sense for our political party to bombard our supporters with that kind of nuisance."
The problem has gotten to the point that the Wildrose have called the police to investigate.
She's also submitted a formal complaint with Elections Alberta.
And the Wildrose aren't the only ones being attacked by robocalls.
The Alberta Federation of Labour is also getting grief, where accusers say the group is using automatic dialers about the policies of both the PCs and the Wildrose without identifying themselves as a third party advertiser.
Elections Alberta is apparently looking into the allegations.

There are many unkowns surrounding the Dolphins' defense that are sure to make or break Mike Nolan's efforts at turning around a unit that finished 22nd in the league, in the same way he did in Denver a year ago. Among them are Randy Starks' transition to nose tackle, how the outside linebackers shape up, and if Chris Clemons can develop into a quality starting free safety.
How good the secondary can be, likely falls on the shoulders of Clemons. Vontae Davis and Sean Smith are expected to make significant strides in year two, and the strong safety spot is already established with veteran Yeremiah Bell.
If Clemons can live up to the expectations that have come with the coaching staff and front office talking him up all offseason, then the pass defense, which was arguably the Achilles heel of the entire team in 09′, will be in substantially better shape then it was last season.
Yeremiah Bell: One of the league's most reliable tacklers is obviously safe on the roster and safe as the starter at strong safety. He's fresh off his first ever Pro Bowl appearance, and should be able to maintain that high level of play for at least one or two more years.
For future sake, hopefully Reshad Jones gives the coaching staff a reason to believe he can be Bell's eventual successor at the position, if free safety doesn't work out for him, that is.
Chris Clemons: When Parcells and Ireland failed to woo in the services of Antrel Rolle and Ryan Clark in free agency, and chose not to invest a high-round draft choice in a free safety, Chris Clemons instantly became a lock to make the roster. Perhaps even more surprising, has been the team's constant praise of Clemons' offseason work.
Everyone knew he had the physical tools to become a quality safety in this league, but mental mishaps reportedly prevented him from earning the starting job, even though Gibril Wilson was in the midst of a nightmare campaign. Parcells gave the fans a reason to believe those mental mishaps are a thing of the past though, when he confirmed that Clemons had one of the better ratios of snaps to mental errors on the team during offseason workouts.
That trend needs to contine when the pads come on and things speed up a bit, and more and more information is thrown at him. If his mental progress starts to digress, expect Reshad Jones to enter the picture, and a heated competition to unfold.
Tyrone Culver: To many people's surprise, Culver hasn't been given the opportunity to compete for the starting free safety job. Instead, he has been getting the backup strong safety reps. Still though, he's likely a lock to make the final 53-man roster because the coaching staff knows what they are getting with him. Which is a consistent, solid back-up, with value on passing situations.
Possible Cuts
Reshad Jones: The Dolphins traded up to the last pick of the fifth round in order to snag the Georgia product, which appeared to be their last ditch effort to address the safety position. On paper though, Jones has the makings of a strong safety, but will be given the opportunity to compete with Clemons, anyway.
He didn't impress in OTA's and minicamp, but being the hard-hitting safety that he is, he could shine when contact is allowed. If he continues to underwhelm however, he will become more and more vulnerable to undrafted rookie Jonathan Amaya, who, contrary to Jones, had a noteworthy spring.
Likely Cuts
Jonathan Amaya: Even though he reportedly flashed potential as a playmaker during OTA's, picking off several passes, that will quickly become an after thought when training camp rolls around. How many times have we seen someone have an impressive offseason, but do next to nothing in camp? If he can continue to make plays though, he will be given the opportunity to unseat Jones. If not, it's likely the practice squad for Amaya.
Nate Ness: He has been seen working as a corner during offseason workouts, which would give him some much needed versatility. Realistically though, that was probably purely experimental, in hopes of getting anything out of Ness that they can.
Camp Battles
Chris Clemons vs. Reshad Jones: For the moment, it appears that this is Clemons' job to lose. But if he struggles early on, expect Jones to get more and more reps. One can only hope that is not the case though, because the potential that comes with Clemons matching his physical abilities with superb mental play projects beyond what Jones can likely bring to the position. If both struggle, don't rule out the possibility of Tyrone Culver being thrown back into the mix.
