Gov. Bobby Jindal is asking federal officials to declare a fisheries disaster from last year's Hurricane Isaac.
Gov. Bobby Jindal is asking federal officials to declare a fisheries disaster from last year's Hurricane Isaac.
Isaac struck the Louisiana coast on Aug. 28, making landfall first at the mouth of the Mississippi River and again at Port Fourchon.
The storm's winds and flooding damaged fishing communities and businesses and also stirred up oil from the 2010 BP spill, bringing gobs of tar balls into area beaches.
"This will allow our fishermen, fishing communities and biologic resources to be restored," reads Jindal's letter to Acting Secretary of Commerce Rebecca Blank.
Louisiana boasts one of the nation's strongest fisheries. In 2011, the state produced 1.5 billion pounds of seafood with a dollar value of $340 million, according to Jindal's administration. That is second only to Alaska.
"By immediately making funds available, our fishermen can return to commerce and supply our nation with U.S.-caught shrimp, crab, oysters and finfish," Jindal's letter states.
A fisheries disaster occurs when an act of nature or man results in severe damage to the fishery and its infrastructure, causing those working in the fishery to suffer "severe economic hardship," according to the National Marine Fisheries Service.
Aid packages range from Small Business Administration loans to federal grants.
"Only the governor can request a fisheries disaster declaration," said Randy Pausina, Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries assistant secretary. "It's the first step in the protocol to request funds from Congress."
Pausina said the storm caused problems such as putting fishing docks and ports out of commission, knocking out utilities that prevented fishermen from getting back to work and damaging equipment in hard-hit communities.
The Department of Wildlife and Fisheries tracked recreational and commercial fishermen to determine preliminary damages, he added.
Pausina said new rules are in place that make it too soon to predict what specific forms of aid the state could receive or how much Louisiana could get. It's also too soon to know when it might be available.
"That's at the pleasure of Congress," Pausina said. "I am not sure right now how we would demonstrate a loss. And there are questions about whether the aid might come back with strings attached to it."
Such strings could include matching grants or similar measures.
Fisheries failures have been declared 51 times since 1994, most recently in New York and New Jersey because of Hurricane Sandy.
The last such declaration for Louisiana was in 2010 during the Gulf oil spill.
After repeated disasters and with other pressures like imported seafood, the aid is needed, fishermen said.
"If we can get some kind of aid or subsidy it will help," said Montegut shrimper Lance Nacio, who sits on Louisiana's Shrimp Task Force. "It's been hard for so many reasons, but we have never stopped fishing. In Louisiana we have this tremendous resource, and we believe in it. We want to keep trying to utilize it as much as we can."

Clown Girl Costume
|Costume type:
|Costumes for Girls
This homemade costume for girls entered our 2012 Halloween Costume Contest.
A word from Morissa, the 'Clown Girl' costume creator:
My mother and great grandmother had made my Halloween costumes together, every year, for ten years. However, after my great grandmother passed away, it was up to my mother to create my costume. She brought back one of my favorite costumes that she and my great grandmother had made ten years earlier: my clown costume. She took an old plaid dress and an old orange shirt, which she cut up and sewed onto the dress as patches. Then, she took a sequined novelty hat and created an artificial flower, which she sewed to the hat. Lastly, she added my favorite part, pom poms that she made from yarn to my buttons and shoes. My great grandmother would have been proud.

Azadnegar, Iran's news agency which broadcasts in several languages, devoted a place to the recent poster campaign on London buses with the article titled "Adnan Oktar's Atlas of Creation on London Buses" on the 27th of August, 2011:
Adnan Oktar's book campaign on London buses.
An influential Turkish writer Adnan Oktar's book Atlas of Creation's announcements are on London's many traditional red double decker buses. The Atlas of Creation announcements displayed on the buses give details of the book and states "Modern Science Demonstrates that God Exists".
The Atlas of Creation is a series of three books, written by Adnan Oktar under the pen name Harun Yahya. Adnan Oktar published volume 1 of his Atlas of Creation, with Global Publishing, Istanbul, Turkey in October 2006. Volumes 2 and 3 were published in 2007… At 11×17 inches and 12 pounds, with a bright red cover and almost 800 glossy pages, most of them lavishly illustrated, "Atlas of Creation" is according the New York Times "probably the largest and most beautiful creationist challenge yet to Darwin's theory, which Mr. Yahya calls a feeble and perverted ideology contradicted by the Koran". Tens of thousands of copies of the book have been delivered, to schools, prominent researchers and research institutes throughout Europe and the United States.

The Fedora 14 Beta was released today, but as a Network World article points out, it "will be the first Red Hat supported distribution to let users choose MeeGo as their desktop." This new release will also include the Sugar interface, intended for netbooks, and "will also be the first version to fully incorporate Red Hat's VDI (virtual desktop infrastructure), called SPICE, or Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments. SPICE will allow Fedora to host virtual desktops that can be accessed over a network."

Bingo. Like other poster stated, both Gimp and Photoshop are good on their own rights. As a freelance designer, I mainly use Gimp for budget reason, lower footprint (Adobe CS product are power hungry). While Photoshop is likely complete due to CMYK support for printing, Gimp lack of support can be completed with Krita (thanks to the ability to import xcf and convert into CMYK).
For me, an excellent design can use any software image tool regardless their quirk.

Pizza Fusion, a restaurateur based in Deerfield Beach, Fla., is gearing up at 50 new franchises to install features such as bamboo flooring, countertops made from recycled detergent bottles, solar panels, seat cushions made from soybean oil and ceiling panels built mainly from recycled aluminum cans.
With the organic pizza chain's announcement in August that new properties would meet the Leadership in Energy and Environment Design (LEED) certification standards, the company joined the growing ranks of firms making big environmental commitments where their real estate operations are concerned.
A May 2007 survey of real estate executives and institutional investors conducted by the University of Arizona in Tucson shows that 36% of respondents have invested in green buildings, while 31% are considering similar measures.
"There's clearly been a very explosive rate of growth in the interest in green buildings," says Gary Pivo, professor of urban planning and natural resources at the University of Arizona and author of the study. Companies are taking a variety of approaches to reduce their energy consumption. Among the notable examples:
Denver-based ProLogis, an industrial REIT, was the first real estate company to join the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX), a trading system to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. CCX requires members to annually reduce emissions by a specified amount. If they make reductions beyond that level, they can sell the excess to others. If they fail to meet the target, they must purchase another's surplus.
In Seattle, Vulcan Real Estate's 161-unit Alcyone Apartments complex includes low-heat-loss windows, digital thermostats, a central gas-fired boiler for domestic hot water, and high efficiency lighting. The features save $40,000 a year on energy costs, the firm says. Most projects developed by the Seattle-based firm are LEED-certified by the U.S. Green Building Council in Washington, D.C.
Los Angeles-based CB Richard Ellis has set a goal for its facilities to become carbon neutral by 2010. That requires balancing carbon dioxide released from burning fossil fuels with renewable energy so that net carbon emissions are zero.
Some companies are reaching beyond the workplace to diminish their impact on the environment. "We don't emit any greenhouses gases, but we do have an effect on emissions through traveling to job sites and going to conferences," says David Goldberg, a principal at Mithun, a Seattle architectural firm that also joined CCX.
"We wanted to find a way to quantify our impact and offset it." Despite a 40% increase in the number of employees in recent years, Mithun reduced its carbon footprint by 9% through small steps such as using hybrid cars, says Goldberg.
Several factors, including environmentalism, spur the trend toward sustainability, the broad term used to indicate practices that conserve the Earth's resources. Many global companies are required to follow strict environmental regulations at European and Asian facilities, and that has led to stronger corporate environmental policies. Also, some firms' customers demand pro-environment policies.
"It's important to the Ford Motor Cos. and the Dow Cornings, and these are the very customers leasing from us," says Walter Rakowich, president and chief operating officer of ProLogis. "If it's important to our customers, it has to be important to us," he says.
"This isn't a fad," observes Sally Wilson, director of advisory services for CB Richard Ellis. "It's clearly growing. For example, a big law firm called me last week and said, 'We see you're going carbon neutral. How do we get there?'"
Beyond green development
Many companies incorporate sustainability in everyday practices so it becomes part of the basic mission. At Vulcan, a development and asset management firm created by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, the goal is to get every project LEED-certified, explains Lori Mason Curran, market research manager.
Certification is based on such benchmarks as water savings, energy efficiency, and indoor environmental quality. The sustainable features determine whether a project meets higher LEED environmental levels of silver, gold, or platinum.
If a Vulcan project can't be LEED-certified, the firm doesn't give up on sustainability, Curran says. Case in point: A 53-unit housing and retail project to be completed in Seattle in 2008 called Borealis Apartments won't be LEED-certified. But it is expected to meet local green standards by installing ceiling fans or building systems that reduce heat distribution levels.
"There's a cost associated with LEED certification that can make it more difficult to pursue," Curran says. Costs mount with the level of certification sought, and include the expense of energy-efficient features and administrative costs of seeking LEED certification and monitoring compliance during construction.
ProLogis examines each project to determine what aspects can be improved, says Rakowich. "In France, where the government subsidizes electricity, it helps to make photovoltaic roofs. Elsewhere, we're experimenting with solar walls, making buildings more air tight, trying to increase natural lighting, and also using energy-efficient lighting fixtures."
Massive tracking operation
As a member of CCX, the greenhouse gas emissions trading organization often called a "cap-and-trade" system, ProLogis is required to track and reduce annual corporate greenhouse gas emissions. For example, a company could reduce employee travel and facilities' energy use.
CCX members agree to reduce emissions by 6% a year. If they use less than their annual allowance, they can sell the excess to members who exceed their target. If they use more than their allotment, they must write a check to purchase credits from members with a surplus.
"It was an immense operational effort to quantify our carbon footprint before we joined," says Rakowich of ProLogis. "We have operations in 13 countries including the United States, Europe, Mexico, and China. It took six to 12 months and bits and pieces of about 50 to 60 people's time. I have no idea what it cost."
One advantage: ProLogis executives now know the company's carbon output for 2006 and can compare those totals to output for 2007.
An imperfect system?
One CCX critic, the Natural Resources Defense Council in New York, which declined to be interviewed, issued a statement to National Real Estate Investor complaining that CCX members produce increased amounts of carbon without penalty. The environmental group says exchange members also are permitted to increase emissions as operations grow.
That's not the case, says Richard Sandor, chairman and CEO of CCX. "Members are subject to the only existing, legally binding cap in North America," Sandor says. "Members that in any given year exceed the cap have to purchase Carbon Financial Instruments (CFIs)" to reduce net emissions.
The claim that members are permitted to increase emissions as their operations grow is also false, Sandor says. "If emissions associated with growth in operations increase above what a member could emit in a given year, that member has to buy CFIs," to reduce emissions to the annual reduction requirement.
But Sandor acknowledges that another criticism is true. Members can get credit for energy reductions that others may also claim. Though theoretically possible, he says it is unlikely to occur. Members who improve electricity efficiency beyond their goals can earn credits, he says.
Mithun's Goldberg isn't deterred by the trading system detractors. "I respect those opinions," he says. "I don't think anybody has it all figured out yet. At a conceptual level, a cap-and-trade system works. Those issues need to be resolved, and we want to support CCX because we know it's working hard to resolve them," Goldberg concludes.
Strict measures
CB Richard Ellis is seeking LEED certification for three facilities to house staff, using energy-efficient appliances and even setting printer defaults on double-sided to use less paper. After all the energy-reducing measures, if its internal operations still produce greenhouse gases, it'll offset those emissions.
"The easy and quick fix is to buy carbon credits," says Wilson. "But we might buy wind power or invest in alternate fuels instead." CBRE formed a practice group to help clients improve sustainability.
In Chicago, Jones Lang LaSalle has done the same. John Schinter, global president of energy and sustainability services for JLL, says that the first step is to set up a way to track greenhouse gas emissions, and the second is to create a company plan to compare industry output.
Commuting by bicycle
Small steps make a difference, says Goldberg of Mithun. "We added three office bikes that people can use to get to meetings in the city," he says, and the firm upgraded its three cars to hybrids.
Will more real estate firms follow suit? Rakowich thinks so. "The more we've invested our time and the more I learn, the more engaged I'm getting, and the more I believe we have to do our part."
G.M. Filisko is a Chicago-based writer.
Wanted: Green real estate investment trust
While many companies are making progress in becoming more energy-efficient, challenges still loom, including the absence of a real estate investment trust (REIT) devoted solely to green projects.
"There's been interest in the idea of a green REIT for several years," says Gary Pivo, professor of urban planning and natural resources at the University of Arizona in Tucson. "There aren't any. A few REITs, like Liberty Property Trust and ProLogis, have said they're seeking to be global leaders in that regard. But they're not doing green buildings exclusively."
Another challenge for the green movement is the question of what to do about existing buildings that don't meet the newest environmental standards. "Where do programs that certify green buildings leave owners interested in improving the performance of their portfolio from average to above average?" asks Pivo.
"Those owners don't have the opportunities for support as do the very best built buildings," adds Pivo. If the industry is really committed to real estate sustainability, he says, it must create systems to motivate owners to continuously improve existing buildings because the least environmentally friendly buildings are older properties.
Many investors want to put their money where their environmental loyalties lie, says Rona Fried, editor of The Progressive Investor. The newsletter, which helps investors identify green corporations, recently analyzed sustainability in real estate. Fried is heartened by the progress she sees.
"The industry is currently taking baby steps, but I'm very encouraged that it's taking the issue seriously," she says, citing the increasing number of LEED-certified projects and conversion of brownfields. LEED-certified projects have grown from 669 in 2006 to 1,004 in 2007. And the number of projects registered to gain LEED certification upon completion has grown from 4,628 in 2006 to 7,714 in 2007.
Interest in the environment is unlikely to wane, Fried says. "Real estate executives are getting nervous that they're going to be left behind. The best analogy I can use is that when central air conditioning came along, a lot of owners said they wouldn't bother with it. When it became standard, those owners found themselves with antiquated buildings that tenants didn't want to be in," Fried says. "Green buildings are becoming the standard, and people who don't follow those standards will be behind the times."

Zachary Cohen '12
Hired by…General Motors
For Zach Cohen '12, getting a job at General Motors' Milford Proving Grounds was all about performance.
An engineering & management major from Huntington Woods, Mich., Zach grew up just 30 miles from his future place of employment and had some connections there, but that doesn't mean he didn't have to prove himself.
Zach had two internships with GM before securing a full-time position. The first was in global purchasing and supply chain as a purchasing intern in the carpet, acoustics, trunk trim, labels and owner's manuals team. The second was in global noise and vibration in the driveline, fuel economy, advanced propulsion noise and vibration team.
"I definitely believe that Clarkson has prepared me for my new role. While working as an intern, my mentor, peers and boss all applauded my technical skills and said that I achieved more in a summer than most semester long co-ops had in the past," he explains. "I feel as if my thought process and ability to solve problems has grown thanks to my experiences at Clarkson."
And he's ready to become a fast-rising fish in the company, too.
He says, "My goal is to become a vehicle chief engineer in the near future, and hopefully become president or CEO of GM in the more distant future."
See you at the top, Zach.

"Christmas Is Sharing" is one of Camden County Child Advocacy Council's biggest programs and was started shortly after the group was organized nearly 34 years ago. The program has come a long way since those first years when individuals met in founding member Margaret Scheiter's garage to make up food baskets and wrap up new and used toys and clothing for 50-100 families in need.
"Christmas Is Sharing" is one of Camden County Child Advocacy Council's biggest programs and was started shortly after the group was organized nearly 34 years ago. The program has come a long way since those first years when individuals met in founding member Margaret Scheiter's garage to make up food baskets and wrap up new and used toys and clothing for 50-100 families in need.
Today, CCCAC does not operate "Christmas Is Sharing" by themselves. The Council works with the Laurie Elks, the Kiwanis of the Ozark Coast, Camdenton Rotary; Crown Dental, the Camdenton and Linn Creek Lions Clubs, the VFW Auxiliary, local banks, schools, churches and many other organizations and individuals who adopt. The council coordinates matching those needing to be helped during the Holidays and those wishing to help them.
In 2012, CCCAC coordinated the adoption of 334 families that included 977 children. Of those families, CCCAC provided Christmas for 77 families that were not otherwise adopted as well as helped in providing Christmas for 12 foster child families.
In October, forms are distributed to groups and individuals wishing to adopt families for Christmas. Families needing assistance for Christmas fill out a form they have received from several local agencies or from the CCCAC Thrift Store in Camdenton. The form allows them to list special gift requests and clothing needs for the children in the family to those wishing to adopt. By early November, CCCAC matches up families with those wishing to adopt.
By the first week of December, most of those who have asked to adopt families have gotten the forms of those they are going to help. CCCAC provides Christmas for all of the families that are not adopted earlier and the Thrift Store basement becomes Santa's workshop. Gifts are ready and delivered the week prior to Christmas.
One woman and her husband found a family they adopted a long distance out Tunnel Dam Road in a trailer. Retrieving the gifts and food from the car, the couple headed for the door of the trailer. There were no steps to the door, only a kitchen chair. Climbing onto the chair holding two trash bags full of gifts and a box of food, the woman knocked on the door. When the door opened there was a sheet hanging over the space and no person could be seen. A woman's voice asked, "Can I help you?" and the couple explained that they had food and Christmas gifts for the family. Hands appeared in the opening of the sheet and the delivery was made. As the woman climbed down from the chair she heard a tiny voice say, "May God bless you." They never saw a soul, but they knew that their gifts were appreciated and greatly needed.
CCCAC always has at least one or two unique requests at Christmas that send them scrambling. One year they received a request for the ever popular and hard to find "Tickle Me Elmo" and a Mickey Mouse wristwatch. What made this unusual was that the items were for a 17-year-old young lady who was a foster child. A council members decided to "adopt" the girl. Family members and friends were called upon to help search for the "Tickle Me Elmo" and one was eventually located in Springfield. CCCAC held a Christmas party for the foster children that year and at the party they learned the girl's story. She was abused and depressed when taken into foster care and had made great strides with her new family. She was getting good grades and had found a job. They learned that she had wanted the Elmo because "Elmo" was her nickname. She was excited to receive her Mickey Mouse watch and her "Tickle Me Elmo" at the party. Family Services had "spilled the beans" as to who had adopted her and she hugged and kissed the Child Advocacy member while thanking her profusely.
Keep the Camden County Child Advocacy Council's "Christmas is Sharing" program close to your heart and you can join in helping to make a child's Christmas wishes come true in 2013.

Air Lift Company Announces the Release of WirelessONE On-Board Air Compressor System
Air Lift Company announced today the release of WirelessONE, a technologically advanced, easy to use on-board air compressor system that allows for the inflation and deflation of a vehicle's air springs with the press of a button.
WirelessONE eliminates the need to locate a gas station air compressor to inflate a vehicle's air springs. This one-touch control is extremely convenient when a driver changes the load of the vehicle and wants to quickly change the air spring pressure.
WirelessONE's wireless remote allows drivers to make air spring pressure adjustments in full view of their vehicle. WirelessONE provides 3 different memory settings for frequently used air pressure settings; for example, one setting for pulling an RV, a second setting for towing a boat and a third for a work trailer. Drivers can change the backlight color on the remote to match the color of the vehicle's gauge cluster. The wireless remote can be clipped to the visor. Learn more about WirelessONE.
WirelessONE includes a standard duty on-board air compressor, manifold, wiring harness, air lines, wireless remote and all the hardware needed to easily install the system. The air compressor mounts easily to the vehicle's frame and attaches to an air line that runs to the air springs. The integrated manifold and wiring harness help speed installation. The manifold is weather resistant and waterproof up to 2 feet for maximum life expectancy and harsh climates.
With WirelessONE, no running of air lines to the vehicle's cab through the firewall is necessary, which speeds and simplifies installation. The system is easily installed with common hand tools in under 2 hours. Installation services are also available at one of Air Lift's many installers. Find them on Air Lift's website.
WirelessONE, as well as all other Air Lift on-board air compressor systems, work with any brand of air springs. All Air Lift compressor systems include a 2 year warranty and an industry exclusive 60 Day No-Questions-Asked-Money-Back-Guarantee.
Air adjustable from 5 to 100 PSI, Air Lift air spring kits increase safety and comfort by helping to level and stabilize vehicles when towing or hauling heavy loads. A level, stable vehicle results in better braking, steering, headlight aim and also reduces sway, "porpoising", and bottoming out. Just add air when loaded and reduce air pressure when riding unloaded.
Air Lift Company, founded in 1949, is a third generation, family owned suspension specialty company based in Lansing, Michigan. Air Lift is committed to engineering, manufacturing and selling the highest quality suspension products that fit, work and last. Air Lift products are available at retailers across the country as well as internationally. For more information, contact Air Lift Company by calling (800) 248-0892, or on the Web at www.airliftcompany.com.

Tom Coburn
Restore Sanity? Jon Stewart Gave Senator Coburn a Bum Rap on Haiti Aid
Like many Americans, I have a great deal of sympathy with the thrust of Jon Stewart's Rally to Restore Sanity on October 30. It's bad enough that the debasement of public discourse is unpleasant, and encourages some Americans to want to withdraw from politics completely; but the debasement of public discourse is also a major obstacle to enacting policies that America needs.
If you think, for example, that endless war in Afghanistan is not in America's interest, and that we would be better off seriously pursuing a negotiated political solution with leaders of the Afghan Taliban and with countries in the region including Pakistan and Iran, it's not in your interest to have a political environment where someone can essentially shut down your voice by accusing you of wanting to "cut and run," or of being "soft on terrorism," or of "not caring about Afghan women." Such a political environment is a mandate for endless war. The debasement of public discourse has been a major obstacle to ending the war in Afghanistan.
This week the New York Times reported that serious efforts towards "talks about talks" have begun between the Afghan government and leaders of the Afghan Taliban. This and similar reports have sparked significant debate: are these developments really significant, or are they being hyped? Are Taliban leaders of sufficient rank being included to make the talks meaningful? Is Mullah Omar, leader of the main branch of the Afghan Taliban, being excluded? Is Pakistan being excluded? If key players remain excluded, won't that be likely to sink the talks?

Pair looking for quality consignments
Two men are looking to give back to local schools through a new Community Educational Reinvestment Program.
Brian Allen and Michael Astley developed the A-Squared Theater and Action Hall in Orleans Township, which is an indoor auction and special event venue on North State Road. Weekly auctions take place at 1 p.m. each Saturday and a flea market is hosted from noon to 4 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays and from noon to 5 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays.
Though only four auctions have taken place since the pair began their endeavor, they said they have a desire to give back to the local school districts as budgets get tighter every year.
"We have a lot of friends and connections to the schools. That's why it's important to us," said Astley.
Both men also have worked with children with special needs and said they want to help the children in any way possible.
"We're just trying to make a difference," said Allen, who spent many years attending school in the Montcalm County area.
Of every item auctioned off, 30 percent is kept by Allen and Astley. Of the 30 percent, 3 percent is given to a school or district of the buyer's choice. The more items that are purchased, the more money goes to one particular beneficiary.
Attempts at spreading the word to local district administration have been less than successful, but the weekly auctions are slowly gaining steam. Parents and supporters of Palo Community Schools have already taken advantage of the opportunity, Astley added.
Both men also have foundations in auctions - with Allen knowing the business side while Astley has knowledge in the pieces up for bidding. The items the pair take in include home goods, stemware, collectibles, racing and beer memorabilia, artwork, vehicles and furniture. They also work with a gold, silver and gem broker and sell pieces online.
"We have the background to get it to take off, but we need more consignments. Even if people don't like auctions, a great way to benefit the schools is to consign," he added.
Safe Haven Human Society also benefits from the generosity of the pair, who love animals and want to help those who help dogs and cats in need of a permanent home.
Allen said the organization is special to him because animals helped him get through a hard childhood. By giving to Safe Haven, he can help others receive an animal that can get them through their tough moments.

A Sight for Sore Eyesby Anthony SanFilippo / Philadelphia Flyers
VOORHEES, N.J. – For the first time in months, the rink wasn't a lonely place to be.
There were still only a little more than a handful of players skating, but there was definitely a different feel to their private workout.
The players were wearing uniforms belonging to their NHL teams for one, and there were fans – about 100 of them, filling the stands to watch NHL hockey for the first time in the 2012-13 season.
And while it was just some small skating and shooting drills, it was evidence of one very important thing.
Hockey is back.
Following a lengthy work stoppage, the NHL and its Players Association tentatively agreed on a new collective bargaining agreement Sunday. And while nothing can happen until the new deal is ratified – meaning so official practices, or roster moves, or schedule announcements yet – just the notion that the league will resume in earnest in the next week was enough to lift everyone's spirits.
"It's exciting to be back," said Max Talbot, "It was exciting moment [yesterday]. It's not fun that we're starting the season in January, but it's going to be an exciting season this year because every game is going to matter and we're thrilled to be back."
Talbot skated with Flyers' teammates Kimmo Timonen, Jody Shelley, Andreas Lilja and Andrej Meszaros as well as Carolina Hurricanes (and former Flyers) Andreas Nodl and Brian Boucher, who still live in the area.
Other Flyers like Sean Couturier and Ilya Bryzgalov were also at skate zone, but didn't skate Monday.
The rest of the players are expected to filter in as the week progresses as the league hopes that the ratification process of the new deal will allow an abbreviated training camp to open as early as this weekend.
In what is expected to be a 48-game season, the Flyers may have a head start on a lot of teams in the league with a training camp that will last less than one week because of how many players return from last season and their familiarity with the coaching staff.
Combine that with the fact that about two-thirds of the expected roster has either been playing games in Europe or in the AHL and the Flyers could be in a good spot to start the season.
"We have a lot of returning players who have played the system and are comfortable here in the locker room, are comfortable with their teammates, are comfortable with the system and the coaches and we can utilize that to get back on track as quick as we can," said Flyers coach Peter Laviolette. "A lot will be the same so it'll be easier for them to get out there and work on it because they already know what we're looking for.
"It won't be as difficult as a team that has a lot of new players or a new system or new coach. We have a lot of familiarity."
Timonen expressed a similar sentiment, saying that the Flyers in-place chemistry and the fact that a large majority of the team has been playing games for some time now gives them a leg up.
However, he also admitted that as a veteran player who did not go to Europe, he might need a couple games to get to his best level of play.
"The guys who stayed home – like myself and a few other guys – it's going to be tough," Timonen said. "It's going to take a little time. I can't expect to be at my best in the first or second game. That's the reality. We have to start getting back into great shape in a short period of time because every game matters now. We'll get there eventually.
"The key for a short season is to stay healthy," Timonen said. "There's going to be a lot of games every week, so you hope not to have a lot of injuries. I'm hoping the young guys can step up and play with a lot of energy and passion. They've only played 30 games so far, so they shouldn't be too tired. That, and Ilya Bryzgalov. If he comes in and plays like he did at the end of last season, we'll be in good shape."
General manager Paul Holmgren gave a brief update on the Flyers roster situation as the start of training camp looms.
Holmgren said defenseman Andrej Meszaros has been skating and 'looks good on the ice." Meszaros, who suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon during an off-ice work out in Slovakia in June, was visiting a doctor Monday and Holmgren said he expects the doctor to clear Meszaros to play as soon as the start of the season.
The newest injury is to that of center Danny Briere who suffered a sprained wrist and a bone bruise when taking a slash during a game in Germany last week.
"It's a little bit of a concern," Holmgren said. "We'll get more information on that over the next few days. I don't know how it is for sure. We'll see once our doctors get their hands on him… If he ends up missing a little bit of time I don't think it's that big of a deal. Obviously we'd like to have him, but if we don't, we'll deal with it."
Holmgren added that he didn't expect that the Flyers would make any other signings or trades prior to the start of the season and said that he will meet with Laviolette in the next couple days to determine what the training camp roster will look like.
And while that training camp roster is still fluid, Holmgren did add that he expected there to be battles for a roster spot or two as well as ice time as camp and the season progresses.
"There's some guys who have played well with the Phantoms and could get some looks here in the short training camp that we're going to have and we'll see," Holmgren said. "Ice time is always up for grabs. Competition is a good thing."

People like the second to last poster are the type of disaffected misanthrope that has to alleviate their own personal greivences by attacking other peoples 'opinion'. Meanness is not cool, lad. Viva hate yes, but if somebody said what they said to me face-to-face I'd smack them in the mouth!
What the hell are you on about? If you read it, it's not even mean, it's just pretty succinct. I don't know if you have a job, but if you smacked everyone who was honest to you then I daresay you wouldn't be around too long. In fact, the more I read your post, the more hypocritical it becomes.
But yeh Pretty Grave Maker, I don't think Kurt has ever had a job, he's only fourteen or so I think (sorry if that's wrong). So I guess his life experience so far has been pretty different to yours.
I wasnt going to reply to this but seen as though I'm losing my creativity : * ). Yes let me just clarify that the tone of the post seemed condescending seen as though it was in reply to a young lad..... backed up by your own second sentence there... also the 'smack-them-in-the-mouth' element was tongue-in-cheek joking... you'll get over it

Joyce Mesrobian often takes in the wooded trails, around the ponds and through the prairie on the campus of the retirement center where she lives, and the Lindenhurst-the Lakes Area, Illinois, Kiwanian felt saddened that many fellow residents did not have such mobility.
Aiming to bring some of the beautifully landscaped outdoors in, Mesrobian began searching for someone to paint nature scenes on a 175-foot bare wall in the tunnel between the independent living building and the assisted living section of her Village of Victory Lakes community. When Kiwanian Priscilla Veidemanis transferred into the Lindenhurst Kiwanis club, she found her artist.
"I accepted the assignment without hesitation and offered to donate my artistic talents, Veidemanis says. "I've just always loved painting, and I love to do murals."
As a thank-you to the facility that hosts her Kiwanis club's meetings twice a month, she agreed to paint a series of nature scenes. Each of her 24 paintings is a three-by-four-foot nature scene, presented in a stained-glass window style. Although most of the images reflected typical nature scenes from the surrounding area, many were influenced by the employees and other residents. Several dropped by to admire her works in progress, often leaving her grateful notes suggesting future scenes. One employee asked for a depiction of his black Labrador, Ranger.
"I found that the pictures jogged memories and stimulated conversations about earlier times in many of the residents," Veidemanis says.
After nearly six months of work, the once dull tunnel is now outfitted with a lighthouse lighting a darkened sky, a windmill surrounded by colorful tulips, a preening peacock, a doe and fawn in the forest and a monarch butterfly among a field of flowers. Mesrobian is thrilled with her friend's gift.
"On any given day, all who live and work at the Village at Victory Lakes can now experience nature's splendor in these painted windows on the tunnel wall. Workers hurrying to an assignment, residents walking unaided or supported by a cane or walker and especially those residents brought in wheelchairs by volunteers—all pause for a few moments to experience the uplifting, special hope and joy inherent in the spiritual beauty of nature's handiwork." —Courtney Meyer
Kiwanis celebrates 50 years in Europe.

Even by the standards of Ken Ham and the Answers in Genesis mob, Bodie Hodge is a mad man.
Read this http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/2013/02/22/misunderstandin... and you'll understand why I say this. Quite apart from his usual pathetic attack on atheists (we're just chemicals, you know), it at least reveals the nature of the God he (or they) have invented Here are some of the things you can learn about that God:
God allowed us to sin. The only reason God would allow this is so that he can punish sinners, which makes God a sadist.
God supports murder when it is committed by people who don't believe in him.
God is responsible for setting gun laws. The only problem is, we don't know what his gun laws consist of, because nobody in the Bible used a gun.
God doesn't want any more angels, thank you very much. He has enough, and can't make any more.
The Newton murders happened because children in school aren't allowed to be taught that they shouldn't be jealous of their neighbour's donkey.
God really only likes Christians.
Anything bad that happens, blame poor old Adam and Eve. Omnipotent God abdicates all responsibility.
God doesn't like it when people ask questions of him.
Even though he is never arbitrary, God is arbitrary when it comes to answering prayers.
Little babies commit sinful acts.
No matter how hard you try, you cannot be good.
If I were Ken Ham, I'd seriously think about whether he should continue employing Mr Hodge. He really does them no favours when he spouts this garbage. But then, maybe he's just a perfect reflection of Ken himself. On second thoughts, Ken, keep him on the staff. People need to be shown what a waste of human resources AiG is.
Views: 502
I wouldn't mind God's PR staff for myself. Get all the credit and none of the blame. :)

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (Jan. 21, 2010) - One thing is for certain, Lipscomb's Allen Arena can be considered a new home away from home for the ETSU women's basketball team.
The last seven times the Lady Bucs walked inside this arena ETSU came out with a win (including two Atlantic Sun Tournament titles), and it wasn't any different for the eighth trip, as senior Siarre Evans (Griffin, Ga.) battled through a knee injury - lifting the Blue and Gold to a 76-65 victory Thursday evening in Nashville.
Evans, who didn't start or see any action in the first half, came off the bench to give the Lady Bucs a huge spark in the second. The Preseason Atlantic Sun Player of the Year selection finished with 14 points and four rebounds in only 14 minutes of action. Joining Evans with strong performances were fellow senior TaRonda Wiles (Danville, Va.) and sophomore Gwen Washington (Manassas, Va.). Wiles came through with 25 points, five rebounds, five assists and two steals in 40 minutes for ETSU. Washington scored 11 of her 17 points in the second half and also pulled down seven rebounds.
The win marked the fifth straight for the Lady Bucs, as ETSU improved to 9-7, 7-1 in A-Sun play. Lipscomb suffered its third straight loss and dropped to 4-15, 2-7.
"I was disappointed on how we came out flat, but fortunately Siarre gave us a spark and we found a way to win," commented head coach Karen Kemp, who improved to 11-1 all-time against Lipscomb. "It's frustrating to not have anyone come off the bench and step up in Evans' absence, but Siarre is willing to do anything to help this team win."
ETSU jumped out to a quick 4-0 start thanks to a pair of buckets from Wiles, but Lipscomb answered with a 10-4 run to take a 10-8 lead with 16:05 remaining in the half. However, Wiles' hot hand put ETSU back ahead, as the senior guard drained back-to-back treys - giving the Lady Bucs a 14-10 advantage at the 15:18 mark.
From there, ETSU held a lead for the next 4 minutes, 56 seconds, but with the Lady Bucs up 23-17, the Lady Bisons scored eight unanswered points to regain a 25-23 advantage with 8:06 showing on the clock. The final 6 minutes, 12 seconds were tightly contested as four ties and four lead changes were recorded, but ETSU managed to take a 35-31 lead into the break.
The Lady Bucs shot 40 percent (14-35) in the opening 20 minutes of action, but were only 2-of-9 (22.2 percent) from beyond the arc. Lipscomb, meanwhile, shot 39.3 percent (11-28) and the Lady Bisons were also an identical 2-for-9 from long range. ETSU made all five of its free throws, while Lipscomb went 7-of-10. Wiles led all scores at the break with 14, and Lipscomb's Chelsea McMeans and Valerie Bronson led the way with five apiece.
In the second half, Washington and Wiles scored the first 11 points for ETSU, and the Lady Bucs extended their lead to 11, 46-35, forcing Lipscomb to burn a 30-second timeout following Wiles' floater at the 14:18 mark.
After building a 13-point advantage (50-37), Lipscomb dug deep and the Lady Bucs' lead quickly evaporated. The Lady Bisons scored the next 13 points to even the game at 50 with 9:32 remaining in the game.
However, Evans would return to the court and Tara Davis (Murfreesboro, Tenn.) stopped the bleeding on the next possession as she sank a pair of free throws. Eventually the Lady Bucs would go up 54-50, after the Murfreesboro, Tenn. native found Evans all alone for a lay-up at the 8:55 mark.
Again, ETSU would push its lead back into double figures when Evans' 3-pointer gave the Lady Bucs a 66-54 cushion; however, the 12-point margin wasn't too comfortable.
Lipscomb would lower the deficit to six, 66-60, but Wiles nailed a three-pointer in front of the Lady Buccaneer bench - making it a 69-60 contest with 3 minutes, 37 seconds left in the game. Wiles' three-pointer proved to be the dagger and the Lady Bucs walked away with an 11-point victory in conference action.
For the game, ETSU shot 41.5 percent (27-65) from the floor and 33.3 percent from beyond the arc (6-18). Lipscomb finished 38.6 percent (22-57) and 6-of-22 (27.3 percent) from 3-point land. The Lady Bucs did an excellent job making their free throws, as ETSU went 16-for-19 at the charity stripe. Both teams pulled down 39 rebounds, while ETSU assisted on 16 of its 27 makes.
Lipscomb was led by Chelsea Burroughs' 16 points in the loss.
The Lady Bucs wrap up their brief stint in the Music City with a road game at Belmont on Saturday afternoon. Tip time is set for 3 p.m. (Eastern) inside the Curb Event Center.

Peter Gotti, the older brother of the late mobster John J. Gotti, and a co-defendant were found guilty yesterday of federal charges of racketeering and conspiring to murder Mafia turncoats. The verdicts were the latest in a series of courtroom blows that have decimated the once-powerful Gambino crime family.
After a monthlong trial that featured profanity-laced tape recordings of John Gotti and testimony by a parade of criminal associates seeking shorter sentences, a jury that deliberated nearly three days convicted Peter Gotti of plotting to kill Salvatore Gravano, the former Gambino underboss known as Sammy the Bull, whose cooperation was instrumental in John J. Gotti's conviction on murder and racketeering charges in 1992.
Peter Gotti, 65, showed little emotion when the verdict was read, but turned to the gallery after the jury of eight women and four men filed out of a Manhattan courtroom, presided over by Judge Richard C. Casey of Federal District Court, and muttered, "What did you expect?"
Mr. Gotti was also convicted of extorting money from construction contractors in Manhattan and Brooklyn in the last decade. He is already serving nine years in prison for a federal conviction last year on separate money laundering and racketeering charges.
He faces a maximum sentence of 50 years in prison on yesterday's conviction, prosecutors said. But Mr. Gotti's lawyer, Joseph A. Bondy, said he intended to appeal the conviction, and to argue for a shorter prison term if it is upheld because of Mr. Gotti's age.Continue reading the main story
Thomas Carbonaro, 56, was found guilty of loan-sharking and involvement in the killings of two Gambino family underlings suspected of cooperating with the authorities -- Edward Garofalo, who was shot to death outside his Brooklyn home in 1990, and Frank Hydell, who was gunned down near a Staten Island club in 1989. Mr. Carbonaro was found not guilty of lesser charges. It was unclear yesterday how long a prison term he may receive; no date was set for the sentencing of either Mr. Gotti or Mr. Carbonaro.
Mr. Bondy, reacting late yesterday to the verdicts, criticized Judge Casey. "He was an obvious advocate and partisan for the prosecution," Mr. Bondy said.
He had contended throughout the trial that Peter Gotti was merely a retired city sanitation worker -- blinded in one eye and living on a disability pension since he fell off a garbage truck in 1979 -- and was "a dope," not smart enough to have effectively commanded the complex criminal enterprises of the Gambinos.
Mr. Bondy insisted that the government had no physical evidence to tie his client to murder or extortion conspiracies. He accused prosecutors of engaging in a "witch hunt" and argued that Peter Gotti was being persecuted because of his notorious surname. "His name is his curse," Mr. Bondy declared when the trial opened on Nov. 15. "Peter Gotti is not John Gotti. He is not a family. He is one man."
Victor L. Hou, an assistant United States attorney, acknowledged that the government's case relied heavily on the testimony of organized crime figures who were seeking lighter sentences by cooperating. But on the stand, the witnesses provided graphic and detailed accounts of murder plots and Mafia deals with general contractors and the use of violence to exert influence over two unions.
The target of Peter Gotti's murder plot, Mr. Gravano, who admitted killing at least 19 people in a long criminal career, entered the federal witness protection program after cooperating with prosecutors in the murder trial of John J. Gotti. But he left the program to promote a book about himself, "Underboss: Sammy the Bull Gravano's Story of Life in the Mafia," which appeared in 1997.
In a secretly recorded conversation in May 1997 at the federal prison at Marion, Ill, John J. Gotti told Peter Gotti that not a day went by when he did not dream of chopping Salvatore Gravano and other turncoats "in little pieces."
Salvatore Mangiavillano, another Gambino associate, testified that in 1999 he and Mr. Carbonaro learned that Mr. Gravano was living in the Phoenix area, and went there on orders from Peter Gotti to kill him. But before they could carry out the plan, Mr. Gravano was arrested in Arizona on drug charges, Mr. Mangiavillano testified.
Another former Gambino associate, Frank Fappiano, took the jury on a narrated tour of major construction projects in Manhattan and Brooklyn over the last decade in testimony that detailed a series of Gambino family deals with general contractors to control lucrative construction jobs.
He testified that after he became a member of the crime family in the early 1990's, he was put in leadership positions in Laborers Local 23 and Teamsters Local 282. In those posts, he scouted new work contracts and approached contractors to offer the Gambino family's help, for a fee, to keep legitimate union workers off jobs and hire nonunion labor for work sites.
Mr. Fappiano testified that Peter Gotti was the acting boss of the family for some time after his brother went to prison in 1992, a period when the Gambinos made "millions and millions" of dollars by strong-arming unions and taking payoffs from contractors.
The Gambino crime organization, once dominant among the five New York Mafia families, has not disappeared but has waned steadily in recent years with a series of defections and criminal convictions.
The flamboyant John J. Gotti, who took over in a bloody 1985 coup, died of cancer in prison in 2002.
His son and successor, John A. Gotti, was convicted of racketeering in 1998 and served six years in prison. In July, three months before his release, he was indicted on new charges of racketeering, kidnapping and conspiring to kill Curtis Sliwa, the founder of the Guardian Angels, the self-styled subway crime fighters, in 1992. That trial is pending.Continue reading the main story

Comfort Apartment by Need Design
This beautiful 1,830 sq ft apartment located in Dnipro, Ukraine, was designed by Need Design.
Description by Need Design
Apartment with an area of 170 square meters, located in Dnipro city. The general concept and the main difference of this interior was dictated by the possibility of connecting part of the open terrace to the living space of the apartment. Due to this, we have created a clear zoned apartment space for the common, personal and guest zones. But the most important thing is that the space of the kitchen-living room is incredibly filled with light, air and freshness. In the interior, we used a warm light wood, light finish, a lot of built-in furniture, that made apartment clean and strict. Laconic, architectural interior, full of interesting textures and unusual details – created for a feeling of peace, harmony and comfort. Photography courtesy of Need Design

I can't say that Howard-Whitley was the low point talent-wise but they were certainly the most frustrating. Those guys would be playing a great game and then suddenly get smoked for a 40-yard TD where they'd be totally out of position.

|Navarre at Rick's
Navarre became a regular at Rick's after the 2001 season when he took over for Henson, particularly after the not so memorable OSU game. He'd come in early, often by himself, post up at the bar and have a couple pitchers and then take off before it got crowded. Totally understandable as he took a lot of shit from fans, students, the media, etc at that time. But what I remember the most was how much and how fast he could drink beer. I heard he came from the city with the hiighest rate of bars per person in the country and I'd totally believe it the way he could put them back.

It was the classic one punch, knocked totally off his feet and dropped flat on his back. He jumped back up and a bunch of people grabbed him and broke it up before anything more could happen. The look on his face was priceless.

It went out right away but it scared the hell out of everyone around.

Asked by Lina Rayne, Michigan
If a person has had a traumatizing year and is finding himself having lapsing memories, is this a sign that he or she has developed dissociative identity disorder?
Mental Health Expert
Dr. Charles Raison
Emory University Medical School
Dear Lina,
I am sorry to hear about your very bad year. I can't answer your question definitively because I don't know anywhere near enough about you from your brief question. Instead, let me talk with you about the most common reasons that people develop memory problems, and how a psychiatrist might think -- in general -- about diagnosing the most likely cause for any individual case.
The first thing to consider is age. As people get older it is normal for memory to decay somewhat. All of us over age 40 have had the experience of seeing an old friend on the street and being unable to pull up the name. This is frustrating but normal. More ominous is when people begin to show the signs of mild cognitive impairment, which is a problem in itself and which often leads, over time, to dementia. If you are 50 years or older and are finding it difficult to carry on with your usual activities because of severe memory loss (such as forgetting how to return to your house when out driving) you should see a physician immediately.
In people under age 50, memory difficulties are usually the result of a psychiatric disturbance. Cognitive disturbances, including memory problems, are among the most common symptoms of many mood and anxiety disorders, including major depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. If you had a tough year, it is quite possible that you might be struggling with one or both of these conditions, which often co-occur in the same people. If you are feeling very anxious, unhappy and unmotivated regarding things you usually enjoy, the probability that you are suffering from a mood or anxiety disorder goes up significantly.
Adults who experience trauma can develop dissociative symptoms, such as being unable to remember the trauma clearly or losing track of time to some degree. Dissociative identity disorder (DID) is a very, very severe condition that usually results from significant trauma early in life. In this condition, which used to be called multiple-personality disorder, the dissociative symptoms are so severe that a person's personality splits into semi-independent pieces. Classical descriptions of the condition typically include losing track of large periods of time, seeing people you don't know who call you by a different name and finding items in your house that you don't remember buying.
Fortunately, DID is rare, making it less likely that your memory lapses are the result of this profoundly disabling condition. I hope this brief response has been helpful. In closing, let me strongly encourage you to see a mental health professional who will be far better positioned than I am to correctly diagnose your specific difficulty.
