An automated diagnostic system for tubular carcinoma of the breast--an overview of approach and considerations.
A computer-based automated histopathology recognition system was developed to distinguish benign from malignant lesions. Tubular carcinoma of the breast, which has several reactive and neoplastic mimics, was selected as a model. Archival stained tumour sections from the United Kingdom National External Quality Assurance Scheme for breast pathology and supplementary material from external pathologists formed the study population. A diagnostic process similar to that employed by the histopathologist was adopted, viz, low-power feature extraction and analysis by cluster/glandular groupings followed by high-power confirmation. To circumvent problems of stain variability, greyscale quantisation of images was achieved through Karhunen-Loeve transformation with results suggesting that histological stains provide information primarily through contrast and not colour.

Bradley Lowery, the terminally ill young football fan who has struck up a friendship with England and Sunderland striker Jermain Defoe, has been accepted onto a new clinical trial offering potentially lifesaving treatment.

The five-year-old who suffers from neuroblastoma – a rare form of cancer that affects his nerves - will trial CAR-T therapy.

The youngster from Blackhall, County Durham, rose to public attention when he walked out with Defoe as a mascot for England’s World Cup qualifier against Lithuania.

The pair have formed an unlikely friendship after the 34-year-old forward visited him in hospital.

Application
Section 44(i) has generally been interpreted by the High Court of Australia as meaning that persons with dual citizenship are not permitted to stand for election and that a person must take "reasonable steps" to renounce their citizenship of the other country. The section has rarely been invoked before.

In Sykes v Cleary (1992), after finding that a candidate who had been declared elected in a by-election was ineligible under Section 44(iv) of the Constitution, the High Court ruled that both of the candidates who were likely to have been elected by a countback were ineligible under s 44(i). When they had become Australian citizens,

A decision of the Court of Disputed Returns may be made by a single judge, but an issue of constitutional interpretation is likely to be made by the Full Court.  If the complaint is upheld, the decision and its effect will be one of the following:

In September 2017, before the High Court ruling on the eligibility of Malcolm Roberts, blogger Tony Magrathea intiated a High Court action alleging that Roberts had sat in the Senate while disqualified, contrary to the Common Informers Act.  On 24 June 2019, the High Court found the allegation proved and ordered Roberts to pay a penalty of $6,000 to Magrathea.

the status of Roberts' Indian citizenship after it was argued in the media that under a precedent set by the Supreme Court of India, he continued to be a 'presumed citizen' of the country.

On 9 August the Senate, with all-party support, referred Roberts' position to the High Court as Court of Disputed Returns. The reference was moved by Roberts's party leader Pauline Hanson, with his support. He did not respond to a question in the Senate whether he would be voting before the Court's decision.

Justice Patrick Keane conducted a hearing to determine factual issues on 21 September. Roberts and his sister Barbara were cross examined as well as two expert witnesses on British citizenship. The following day, Keane handed down his findings on that evidence, finding that atfilled in the usual way.

Judgment

In Re Canavan; Re Ludlam; Re Waters; Re Roberts [No 2]; Re Joyce; Re Nash; Re Xenophon (the "Citizenship Seven Case"), the High Court sat as the Court of Disputed Returns to determine the eligibility of seven parliamentarians to have been elected and to sit.

Because of the political implications of the outcome of the case, the Court's decision was intensely anticipated. In the preliminary hearing on 12 October 2017, Chief Justice Susan Kiefel observed: "It is hardly necessary to say that the Court is aware of the need to give its answers to these references with or without reasons as soon as possible. As counsel and instructing solicitors would appreciate, it is not always possible for the Court to do so immediately."

He also criticised the decision: "We were asking the High Court to look at the section in view of its purpose and history, the High Court instead took the view that the section should be read with a very strict, almost brutal literalism." However, he added that the law was now clear and that it was a "good thing" that the decision had been unanimous. All of section 44 has already been examined extensively, particularly by a Constitutional Commission in 1988 and by a parliamentary committee in 1997, but their proposals have not been pursued.

John Machota reviews USA Today's 2012 NFL preview magazine and finds that Tony Romo is the fifth highest ranked player in the magazine's top 50 players list.

"The only higher-rated passers last year were Aaron Rodgers, (Drew) Brees and Tom Brady," wrote NFL writer David Elfin, who compiled the list. "Romo has a 47-30 regular season record, but his 1-3 playoff mark keeps him from being considered a truly elite quarterback."

The other quarterbacks ahead of Romo are, in order, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Tom Brady and Eli Manning.

Mickey Spagnola takes a look at the interior offensive line in his offseason review. He has 332-pound Nate Livings manning the left guard spot, and argues that with David Arkin and Ronald Leary battling for the right guard spot, Mackenzy Bernadeau might be in play for the center position once he's back from hip surgery.

Arkin has been getting most first team snaps, but Leary has been getting some as well. If either emerges as a strong possibility at right guard, that could push Bernadeau into a battle with Phil Costa for the starting center spot.

Bungie also says the light level cap will raise from 30 to 32, but there was no word on whether"True Detective" season 3 is still being haunted by the supposed underperformance of its previous season. With the disappointment of fans about the arguably low quality of plotline that the sophomore season delivered which led to its low ratings, rumors about signing ex-cast Matthew McConaughey and A-lister Robert Downey, Jr. have surfaced.

HBO head Casey Bloys has recently hinted on the network's plan to renew "True Detective" for season 3. Although the series creator already opted out, HBO has re-signed writer Nic Pizzolatto until 2018. This can be taken as a good sign for the series. However, Pizzolatto is reportedly busy with another HBO series where Downey is also rumored to star.

While the show has not yet received its green light, fans are now waiting for updates as they


firmly believe that the crime drama is still coming back for its third installment which is expected to premiere in 2018. Yet to avoid the low ratings that the second season suffered from, the team is now rumored to be in talks with the "Iron Man" star, Downey Jr., and ex-lead star of the series, McConaughey.

The Struggle Of "True Detective" Season 2

"True Detective" in its first season quickly became a fan-favorite HBO show. It has been declared as the most viewed TV series in HBO history for a first season release. It has impressed millions of viewers and even nabbed individual several awards including the Outstanding Drama series award during the 66th Primetime Emmy Awards and the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for McConaughey. These aresaid to be the things that the sophomore season failed to achieve despite the powerhouse cast of Vince Vaughn, Rachel McAdams, and Colin Farrell.

McConaughey And Downey Jr. Collab For "True Detective" Season 3

Following the scenario, fans suggest that the award-winning actor McConaughey be re-signed to star in the upcoming third season. According to reports, this can be possible since the actor previously shared how he was missing working for the series. McConaughey in his interview with "Rich Eisen Show" said, "I miss Rust Cohle, man...I miss watching him on Sunday nights." He went on with his statement saying, "I was a happy man when I made that for six months, because I was on my own island."

McConaughey's enthusiasm might have given a new hope for the show but


nothing is being announced about his possible comeback until now. Downey Jr., who was previously reported working on a new series with Pizzolatto, is also rumored to join "True Detective" season 3. The link between the actor and the writer is sparking theories that Pizzolatto might take Downey to again work with him for "True Detective." Yet like McConaughey's casting, the participation of the "Sherlock Holmes" lead star also remains a theory, at least for now.

Daniel Ricciardo wants Formula 1's virtual safety car rules to be discussed following the confusion during its use at Austin that led to him being overtaken by Nico Rosberg.

The Red Bull driver was running third, after pole-sitter Rosberg fell back at the start, but when the first virtual safety car period of the US Grand Prix ended, Rosberg managed to nip back in front.

Ricciardo insisted he did not get a warning to say the period was ending and he was surprised at how quickly Rosberg appeared to close the gap.

"VSC, you should keep the gap, and Rosberg wasn't right up our arse, he was a few seconds behind," said Ricciardo, who finished 10th having led at one stage.

In 2008 he claimed that the emerging Haynesville Shale's gas wells would be three times more prolific than those in the Barnett Shale (see Daily GPI, July 7, 2008). There are arguments about the abundance of resources in the two plays, but the Haynesville Shale today is the most prolific gas play in the United States and it has or will soon surpass the Barnett Shale in output (see Shale Daily, April 26; March 22).

On Friday the CEO expounded on the Utica during a conference call to discuss Chesapeake's second quarter performance. The company, which is the leading leaseholder in the Ohio portion of the play, now has an


estimated 1.25 million net acres in the eastern part of the state, he said.

"We believe the Utica Shale will be characterized by a western oil phase, a central wet gas phase and an eastern dry gas phase and is likely most analogous, but economically superior to, the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas," McClendon told analysts. Chesapeake now is drilling in the central part of the play.

Until now Chesapeake has been mum about its Utica development, although McClendon last year acknowledged that the company had purchased a sizable stake in the play from privately held Anschutz Exploration Co. (see Shale Daily, Nov. 5, 2010;Oct. 8, 2010). It also has partnered with Houston's EnerVest Ltd. on close to 150,000 net acres in the leasehold.

"We felt like it was thethat other unconventional resource areas, including the Marcellus, don't necessarily have, he said. "There's plenty of water and the topography is less changing than in West Virginia and eastern Pennsylvania.

"And activity can rejuvenate this area. We're quite pleased with the quality and the size of the workforce...There are great transportation alternatives. We're close to the Ohio River if we need to barge out oil. Just lots of advantages to eastern Ohio. If I picked another place to develop, this is pretty much mostly ideal for a big, new play."

Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who McClendon said was a "strong" backer of Chesapeake's plans, said the announcement about Utica development was "huge news for Ohioans and I'm simply thrilled to hear it."

The company continues to acquire acreage in the Utica,


liquids, also is progressing across the United States. Only in the gassy Haynesville are rigs actively coming down. Currently there are 30 rigs operating in the play with nine just about to be pulled out and by the end of the year there will be 15 rigs in operation. Higher production in the play could resume once gas prices climb, said McClendon.

Asked how strong Chesapeake's gas production was in terms of its well performance, the CEO saw an opportunity to blast recent stories in the New York Times that claimed initial production rates from shale gas wells were strong but fell quickly over time.

"It's really the opposite of what you read in the New York Times," said McClendon. "As you drill more wells in the play [production] getsbest play. Now we drill the worst wells first and that's one reason we are so optimistic about the Utica. It gives us a lot of optimism about what we see down the road. There's outperformance generally across the board among the best gas wells in the Marcellus, the Haynesville and others."

Chesapeake also reported second quarter results on Friday. Net income rose to $467 million (68 cents/share), nearly double the year-ago earnings of $235 million (37 cents). Profits were 4 cents higher than Wall Street estimates.

Total production in the latest period rose 9% year/year to 3 Bcfe/d.

Because of higher costs to drill wells in the onshore, the Oklahoma City-based independent plans to increase its drilling budget by $500 million through the end of 2011 and will spend up


to $6.5 million this year and in 2012. The company today is operating close to 160 rigs across the United States, the most of any driller.

MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee police say 14-year-old Kaleel Buchanan’s parents allegedly played a part in him gunning down a man on 24th and West Keefe. Buchanan was charged with first degree intentional homicide, and now, his parents are behind bars as well.

It was around 10:30 in the morning on August 18th when Dennis Smith Jr. was gunned down at 24th and W. Keefe.

Williams said he is disheartened that a life was lost and a 14-year-old boy may spend the rest of his life in prison if convicted.

According to a criminal complaint, moments before the murder, Smith “pushed Kaleel down twice, causing him to fall into a railing.” Then, Smith got into an argument with someone called ‘Lovie.’ Lovie called Kaleel’s father,

Police sources said the officers began to complain of "hallucinations" and one made a call for an officer needing assistance. Both officers were found in a police vehicle and later treated in hospital.

During the call, another officer responding to the scene slipped on ice and required medical attention. That officer suffered a head injury.

In the days before the incident, Toronto police carried out a raid at Community Cannabis Clinic. Sources told CBC Toronto the edibles the officers ingested are believed to have come from that dispensary.

According to Girls Not Brides, 15 million girls under the age of 18 are married every year worldwide. In Lebanon, 6 percent of girls are married by the time they reach 18, and figures are far higher among the country’s large refugee population. Among Lebanon’s registered Syrian refugee population of just under 1 million, 41 percent of Syrian women aged between 20 and 24 were married before 18.

The six-year conflict only exacerbates the desperation of families trying to protect their daughters from poverty and the gender-based violence that comes with war — assault, rape, kidnapping. Many see marriage as the only option.

Seismologists say the decision sets a dangerous precedent

The 2009 earthquake killed more than 300 people in L'Aquila

Prosecutors argued scientists gave residents "incomplete and contradictory" information

Earthquake experts worldwide expressed shock at the manslaughter convictions of six Italian scientists who failed to predict the deadly L'Aquila quake , warning that the decision could severely harm future research.

Two scientists resigned their posts with the government's disaster preparedness agency Tuesday after a court in L'Aquila sentenced six scientists and a government official to six years in prison. The court ruled Monday that the scientists failed to accurately communicate the risk of the 2009 quake, which killed more than 300 people.

Luciano Maiani, the physicist who led the National Commission for the Prediction and Prevention


of Major Risks, resigned in protest of the verdict Tuesday afternoon, Italy's Civil Protection Agency announced.

"The situation created by the sentencing yesterday on the facts from L'Aquila is incompatible with a clear and effective performance of the functions of the commission and its role as a consulting bodies for the state," Maiani said in a statement released by the agency.

In addition, Mauro Dolce quit as director of the office that monitors volcano and earthquake threats, the agency said. Dolce will be given another post, it said.

Seismologists were aghast at the court's decision, noting that earthquakes remain impossible to forecast with any kind of accuracy.

"To predict a large quake on the basis of a relatively commonplace sequence of small earthquakes and to advise the local population to flee" would constitute "both bad science and bad public policy," said David Oglesby, an associate professor in the Earth sciences faculty of the University of California, Riverside.

"If scientists can be held personally and legally responsible for situations where predictions don't pan out, then it will be very hard to find scientists to stick their necks out in the future," Oglesby said in a statement.

Prosecutors argued that


the scientists gave "inaccurate, incomplete and contradictory information about the dangers" facing L'Aquila at a meeting a week before the magnitude-6.3 quake. The experts determined that it was "unlikely" but not impossible that a major quake would take place, despite concern among the city's residents over recent seismic activity.

The court agreed, finding the six scientists from the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology and a member of the Civil Protection Agency guilty and ordering Italian authorities to pay 7.8 million euros ($10 million) in damages.

"It's chilling that people can be jailed for giving a scientific opinion in the line of their work," Roger Musson, the head of seismic hazard and archives at the British Geological Survey, wrote in a comment published on the organization's Twitter feed.

heart attack in 2003-2006, compared with daily temperatures in England and Wales at the same time.

The results were adjusted to take into account other risk factors like air pollution and rates of flu at the time.

The researchers found that a 1°C drop in average daily temperature was linked to a 2 per cent increase in the risk of heart attack over the next 28 days. The risk was highest in the following two weeks.

The researchers said while the risk appeared small, there were 146,000 heart attacks every year in the UK so even a small increase in risk translated into 200 extra heart attacks for each 1°C drop on a single day.

The highest risk was within two weeks of exposure, according to a statement of the London School.

Theheightened risk may seem small, but Britain alone has an estimated 146,000 heart attacks a year and 11,600 events in a 29 day period.

Even a small increase in risk translates to substantial numbers of extra heart attacks, around 200 for each one degree Celsius reduction in temperature nationwide on a single day.

Older people aged between 75 and 84 years and those with previous coronary heart disease seemed to be more vulnerable to the effects of temperature reductions, while people who had been taking aspirin long-term were less vulnerable.

The researchers found no increase in the risk of heart attacks at higher temperatures, possibly because temperature in Britain is rarely very high in global terms.

— QUESTION: What TV news program started out two-and-a-half years ago on a shoestring budget, consistently fights censorship, considers culture as important as news, and has earned financial support from Bruce Springsteen, Peter Gabriel, U2, Bonnie Raitt, Little Steven, and Sidney Poitier? Answer: ``South Africa Now,'' an Emmy Award-winning, half-hour news program produced by Globalvision, a New York-based television production company, in association with the Africa Fund. The show, which is committed to offering uncensored news, covers issues in southern Africa from the inside out, using resident writers and reporters.

It is not seen on South African television. Videotapes, though, are available there for those with VCRs, says Diery Prudent, media coordinator forthe show.

``Now'' started as a response to the dwindling coverage of South Africa and increasing hostility toward reporters there, says executive producer, Danny Schechter, in a telephone interview. ``The idea was to get a show on the air that demonstrated that the story could be covered despite the censorship,'' says Mr. Schechter, who was a producer for the ABC-TV newsagazine ``20/20'' for eight years. ``We're trying to challenge not only censorship there, but media indifference here.''

``Now'' is seen regularly in many other nations, and is broadcast weekly on 80 PBS stations, and on CNN's World Report, the Vision Network, CBC Newsworld in Canada, NHK in Japan, JBC in Jamaica, ZNS in the Bahamas, CBC in Barbados, Mozambique TV, Zambia TV, and Zimbabwe TV.

South African officials, however, are not


fans. Letters show the producers have been denied journalist visas. No reason was given, but another attempt for visas, aided by the United States State Department, may prove successful. ``We're hoping they'll let us do our jobs as journalists,'' Schechter says.

Schechter's attitude is shared by the show's current sponsor, the Rockefeller Foundation. Hugh Price, the foundation's vice-president, says the program's second $100,000 grant was awarded because, although press access is better than before, ``current media coverage of South Africa is episodic and incomplete. It also looks from an American point of view.'' He says that the foundation ``wanted Americans to see events as those who live them see them.''

Opposing the idea that many non-South Africans are indifferent to the problems in South Africa, producer Schechter says, ``When NelsonMandela showed up, it proved that people really did care about South Africa. After all, it's a very compelling issue of human rights, of racial justice.''

An important component of the show's success, he adds, is that the ``journalists and the crews that are working with us tend to be black crews that live in South Africa. Most American television will be behind the police lines if there's a confrontation. We're on the other side of the lines. We're covering it from within the movement, trying to represent the views of the majority in South Africa, and trying to put them in a context we think is missing in most of the major media coverage.''

Schechter says they have asked for interviews with top political figures, including President De Klerk,


a strong emphasis on its cultural segment - a less-covered aspect of African life.

``Because of censorship and a lack of education, many [African] people express their aspirations through music, dance, drama, and other cultural forms,'' says Schechter. ``We try to give a platform for those people to be heard.''

Although the program has only enough funding to last 13 more production weeks, its impact is earning it new influence.

New York City Mayor David Dinkins recently asked the production team to create ``Unity Now,'' a program promoting racial harmony in the United States.Escape your time

The "Temporary" Monarch

The monarch used to have absolute powers until the disappearance of King Henry V. A "temporary" replacement was put on the throne to hold it until King Henry returned, and he would have only one vote on the governing council of nobles and no other powers except persuasion. More then 50 years have passed since then and everyone knows King Henry is almost certainly dead-but the nobles don't want to go back under the rule of an absolute monarch, so the kingship is only "temporary" until King Henry

After acquiring such things as the 'ahem' vigor of a war deity, and the 'ahem' blessing of a forest goddess, the mages almost created the cure. Instead, the vessel of Divine Virility was spilled, and instead of curing sterility, infused the ancient hill with life.

The father, an employee in a mosque in the delta city of Mansura, had allegedly locked the child in the house for four months and harmed her in different parts of the body, independent newspaper Al Youm Al Saba said.

The mother told investigators that her husband used to brutally beat the girl for the slightest reasons, causing the child to suffer nervous disorders and lack of concentration, according to the paper.

The father, 30, was quoted as saying that he wanted to “discipline” his child for pilfering food from the fridge and telling lies.

The child was this week admitted to a local


hospital to treat her for physical and psychological problems.

The father faces charges of using cruelty against a child, an offence punishable in Egyptian law by a minimum one year in prison.

In September, an Egyptian court sentenced a manager of an orphanage south of Cairo to three years in prison after convicting him of being cruel to underage children and jeopardising their lives.silicon substrate from the electrode and forms an alloy spike structure in the substance.
The resulting alloy spike structure is a sharp, pointed region enriched in aluminum. The alloy spikes can extend into the interior of the substrate from the boundary between the electrode and the substrate to cause unwanted short circuit conduction at the junction of the semiconductor in the substrate, particularly when the junction is formed in an extremely shallow region of the substrate. When such an unwanted conduction occurs, the semiconductor device no longer operates properly. This problem is exacerbated with smaller device sizes, because the more shallow junctions are easily shorted, and because the silicon available to alloy with the aluminum metallization is only accessed through the small contact area, increasing the resultant depth of

However, the immigration of Muslims to Scotland is a relatively recent event. The majority of Scottish Muslims are members of families who immigrated in the late 20th century. Scotland's Muslims in 2001 represented just 0.9% of the population (42,557), with 30,000 in Glasgow. By 2011, the Muslim population had increased to 76,737, accounting for 1.4% of Scotland's population.

The guard has been playing with pain in that finger and his left wrist and missed practice Friday. But Washington coach Scott Brooks expects Wall to be able to continue playing as long as the All-Star guard puts tape or a splint on the pinkie finger.

Brooks said after practice Friday that everything "came back clean" on Wall, who could remain in the lineup when the Wizards host the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday night. Despite the injuries, Wall had 10 assists in Washington's loss to the Boston Celtics on Wednesday.

Wall said that his shot was affected "big time" by his injured pinkie and that he'd sit Saturday against the 76ers if it affects him again. He tried taking a few shots after practice Friday and is attempting to find a way to stabilize the finger.

Calling his pinkie and wrist swollen and sore, he said the injuries weren't as bad as the one he dealt with during the Wizards' playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks in 2015.

"The main problem is just my pinkie mostly, so if I can get that to just stay stable and it (doesn't) affect my shot as much as it did the other night," it would be OK, Wall said.

Some responses showcase the wisdom of the crowd, but part of the draw are the anomaly votes scattered throughout -- the incomprehensible choices from those that in theory wield actual basketball power.

Then again, it's long been supposed that tasks like these are likely doled out to lower-rung staffers, given that they hold no actual bearing. That could be true for some, though Rockets GM Daryl Morey has his own system:

• According to John Schuhmann of NBA.com, this is the first time in the GM survey's 12-year run that Kobe Bryant was not voted as the league's best shooting guard. Usurping the


win total.

• Unsurprisingly, Gregg Popovich dominated most every coaching category. He was surveyed as the best coach in the league (75.9 percent), the best motivator (51.7 percent), the best at making in-game adjustments (27.6 percent) and the curator of the top offense (37.9 percent). He also received votes for having the best defensive schemes. Fitting and fair praise.

• Doc Rivers, who has not coached an above-average offense since 2009, was given a nod for running the best offense. Scott Brooks, who has proven a bit stagnant in his strategy for the Thunder in past seasons, received a vote as the coach who makes the best in-game adjustments.

• I have no idea what to make of the fact that goofy and limited Clippers center DeAndre Jordan was voted asthe NBA.

• We go through this bit every season, but it's beyond time to dispense with the survey's most ridiculous and racially loaded question: "Which player makes the most of limited natural ability?" Among those to receive votes this season: the athletically remarkable Kevin Love, the impeccably mobile Marc Gasol, the lightning-fast J.J. Barea, the supernaturally coordinated Steve Nash and the remarkably instinctive Anderson Varejao. Can this one, NBA.

Since the 1870s, the primary motor cortex (M1) has been known to have a somatotopic organization, with different regions of cortex participating in control of face, arm, and leg movements. Through the middle of the 20th century, it seemed possible that the principle of somatotopic organization extended to the detailed representation of different body parts within each of the three major representations. The arm region of M1, for example, was thought to contain a well-ordered, point-to-point representation of the movements or muscles of the thumb, index, middle, ring, and little fingers, the wrist, elbow, and shoulder, as conveyed by the iconic homunculus and simiusculus. In the last quarter of the 20th century, however, experimental evidence has accumulated indicating that within-limb

Hall of Famer Jon Finkel out of the Top 8 of the last two Modern Pro Tours. Heading into Pro Tour Philadelphia, Finkel had not played with sixty-card decks in several years and was looking for ways to close the experience gap.

"The first legal set in Modern, Mirrodin, was also the first set that I had never interacted with in Constructed. I wasn't around for Affinity and Skullclamp and pretty much anything since," said Finkel. "Going into Philly, I knew I would be playing against people who had a lot of experience with these cards and decks—since many of them would be very similar to past Standard decks—and there would definitely be matchups where I had no idea what my opponent would be doing. Storm appealed to mebecause I could do my own thing and not have to worry too much about what lines my opponents were taking. It was a solitaire deck."

Finkel went 8–1 with the Storm deck. His team was split into two versions of the deck, with all the players who opted for three copies of Pyromancer Ascension over one copy faring the best. With his draft record at 3–3, he was not able to play for Top 8 in the last round and drew instead with teammate Tom Martell. More than a year and three Goblin Electromancers later, he went 8–2 with the deck at Pro Tour Return to Ravnica, stymied once again by a .500 Draft performance.

"I do think Storm is a good deck in Modern and one people should

"Infect was the most powerful deck I found and it also happened to be reasonably well positioned against Jund as well," said Lax of his decision to attack the Pro Tour with the lowly Plague Stinger. "It also was able to punish your opponent for poor plays, which was especially relevant as I expected few people to have properly tested against Infect."

Since the Pro Tour, Thoughtseize has migrated to the main deck of Lax's Infect builds since he was siding it in for almost every matchup, but the rising number of Spirit tokens in play has made it tougher for the deck to succeed.

Lax said,"I might play Infect again, butwould have to seriously work on the deck to beat the increased presence of Lingering Souls. The other deck I would consider is Brian Kibler's green-white Little Kid deck that he Top 16ed Grand Prix Chicago with. Not only is it able to play Lingering Souls, it is fairly strong against the card."

In 2017, Justin Trudeau's Liberals wanted to talk about 2027. And that might set things up for 2019.

Buried within the 280-page budget book tabled by Finance Minister Bill Morneau in March was a two-page section entitled "Canada in 10 years." Between the numbers and graphs and charts of the rest of the tome — little of which, one presumes, was read by anyone outside Ottawa — the government's writers allowed themselves to get a bit dreamy.

"Within 10 years," it was imagined, Canadian cities would have "world class public transit systems," while Canadians would benefit from cleaner air, less congestion, bustling ports, digital networks, greater housing, support and care.

"This is the brighter future that all Canadians deserve."

Regardless of whether Canadians deserve it, the Liberals now have less than twothis case to the present ownership interest of Twin Lakes Associates and O'Neill in the properties involving the six water rights originally decreed in 1912 to the Clear Creek, Arlington, and Cache Creek Ditches, nor is there any dispute over the original appropriation of those water rights. Twin Lakes Placers, Limited (Twin Lakes Placers), a company incorporated in Great Britain and licensed to do business in Colorado, maintained extensive placer mining holdings in Colorado in the early part of this century. In 1912 the majority of its holdings were in Chaffee and Lake Counties in the area commonly known as Cache Creek Park. The holdings of Twin Lakes Placers included seventeen placers in Chaffee County, two in Lake County, and one that straddled the boundary between the two


counties. The water rights in issue were appropriated prior to the turn of the century and were decreed on March 18, 1912. The decree described the sources of the six water rights as natural streams tributary to the Arkansas River, and awarded water rights to the Cache Creek, Arlington, and Clear Creek Ditches for placer mining uses in connection with the placer mines belonging to Twin Lakes Placers in Lake and Chaffee Counties.[3]
Twin Lakes Placers used the decreed water rights for large-scale hydraulic gold mining. In 1909 the cities of Pueblo and Canon City, located downstream from the mining operations, filed a complaint in the District Court of Fremont County seeking to enjoin Twin Lakes Placers from hydraulic mining. The cities claimed that the placer mines had washedaway large portions of hillsides containing deposits of glacial flour, which consisted of finely ground particles that render water unfit for human consumption, and that effluent from the mines had resulted in polluting the Arkansas River. Twin Lakes Placers acknowledged in its answer that the entry of the injunctive decree sought by Pueblo and Canon City would destroy the value of its property and water rights. On June 24, 1912, the district court enjoined Twin Lakes Placers "from any activity by which placer mine tailings or debris might be discharged, placed or conveyed into the Arkansas River." Upon the entry of the injunction Twin Lakes Placers never sought a modification of the decree, as it was authorized to do, and ceased its mining operations. Its license to do


business in Colorado was suspended by the Secretary of State on September 27, 1915.
In 1912 the placer parcels of Twin Lakes Placers were encumbered with statutory liens arising from unpaid property taxes. In the latter part of the year Lake and Chaffee Counties listed the placer parcels, with one exception, for tax sale, and the one remaining parcel was listed for tax sale in 1915. Twin Lakes Placers failed to redeem any of the parcels, and the properties were subsequently conveyed by tax deed to purchasers of the individual parcels.
*1235 The properties which originally benefited from the Twin Lakes Placers water rights changed hands several times after the 1912 injunction. Various documents were admitted into evidence showing numerous deeds and conveyances, leases and options, and quiet title proceedingsconcerning the properties. Some of these documents contained a description of water or ditch rights while others did not.
During Southeastern's case in chief several witnessesa district ranger and a land staff officer for the United States Forest Service, a division engineer for the State of Colorado, a division manager for the Pueblo Board of Water Works, local residents and visitors, a consulting engineer, and a cultural anthropologist/archaeologisttestified concerning the use of the subject water rights in the years following the 1912 injunction. The testimony indicated that little placer mining has taken place in Cache Creek Park since the early 1920s, with some use having been made of the Clear Creek and the Arlington Ditches up until that time. Since the early 1920s these ditches and the north branch


of the Cache Creek Ditch have become largely unusable due to landslides, erosion, growth of trees in the ditches, and the collapse of wooden flumes and a tunnel. With the exception of some recent repairs and improvements, there was virtually no effort to repair the deteriorating conditions over the decades. Although another branch of the Cache Creek Ditch has enjoyed occasional use in the intervening years since the 1920s, this use was sporadic and made by persons without clear claim of right to the water.
At the conclusion of Southeastern's case in chief the water judge ruled that from June 24, 1912, to the present there has been nonuse of the subject water rights as decreed on March 18, 1912. Because nonuse had been demonstrated for an unreasonable periodof time, the judge ruled that a prima facie case of abandonment had been established, and that the burden of rebutting this presumption shifted to Twin Lakes Associates and O'Neill.
In an effort to rebut the presumption of abandonment, O'Neill described efforts to restore and maintain certain of the ditches and the uses to which the water rights in question had been put at various times. He testified that he had made several mining leases on the property on a royalty basis, but acknowledged that, since he had received no royalties, he changed to a straight lease payment system in 1980.
Two geological engineers testified concerning the economic suitability of the Cache Creek Park area for placer mining. They stated that gold mining has cyclical economic returns, that placer mining


the water rights, ditches, flumes, and canals;
that Twin Lakes Placers and its successors have never challenged, appealed, or sought modification of the injunction, notwithstanding the fact that the injunction decree expressly authorized the parties and their successors to apply to the court for a modification of the injunction;
that subsequent to the 1912 injunction, Twin Lakes Placers and its successors permitted the hydraulic mining equipment and the structures of the Cache Creek, Arlington, and Clear Creek Ditches to deteriorate to the point of being totally unusable;
that subsequent to the permanent injunction of June 24, 1912, Twin Lakes Placers intended to permanently discontinue, and did permanently discontinue, the use of all water available under the decree of March 18, 1912, for the Cache Creek, Arlington, and Clear Creek Ditches;
that Twinexcept for Cache Creek No. 133 Placer, the Chaffee County properties owned by Twin Lakes Placers were conveyed to H.K. Frey by treasurer's deed on February 28, 1916;
that the deed did not describe any of the subject water rights but did list the properties together with "seven miles of Cache Creek and Clear Creek Ditches" and that seven miles is the approximate length of those segments of the Cache Creek and Clear Creek Ditches located within the boundaries of Chaffee County;
that H.K. Frey conveyed a one-half interest in the Chaffee County properties, together with the seven miles of Cache Creek and Clear Creek Ditches, to Horatio Preston on February 28, 1916;
that on July 22, 1916, Frey and Preston obtained a quiet title decree with respect to these properties


for the purpose of placer mining, together with the Cache Creek and Clear Creek Ditches and all water and water rights appurtenant to the properties for the purpose of placer mining, and that Twin Lakes Placers never entered an appearance or filed an answer to the quiet title action;
that the north branch of the Cache Creek Ditch was not used to divert water to the decreed place of use from June 24, 1912, to the present and that, notwithstanding the fact that O'Neill had conducted some maintenance on portions of the ditch since 1972, the entire length of the ditch was not maintained from June 24, 1912, to the present date;
that the Arlington Ditch was not used to divert water to the decreed place of use from Junecancelled water rights. The court also dismissed Twin Lakes Associates' and O'Neill's application for a determination with respect to a change of water right.
Twin Lakes Associates and O'Neill seek reversal of the judgment for three reasons. They initially claim that, since Chaffee and Lake Counties held tax liens on the property and water rights in 1912, and because Twin Lakes Placers continuously used the water rights for several years after 1912, Twin Lakes Placers could not have abandoned its water rights in 1912. They next argue that the water court erred in finding that all six water rights were unused subsequent to the entry of the injunctive decree on June 24, 1912. Finally, they contend that the water court erred in failing to consider evidence of O'Neill's intent


Creek and Clear Creek Ditches in the conveyance but did not expressly include water rights. A 1919 treasurer's deed conveyed Placer No. 133 to H.K. Frey and Horatio Preston and failed to include water rights in the conveyance. Since, as the water court found, Twin Lakes Placers "quietly walked away" from its mining operations with the intent to abandon its equipment, mines, and water rights following the entry of the injunctive decree of June 24, 1912, it might well have been that Chaffee County considered the water rights as already abandoned. At any rate, even if the circumstances of the tax sales are viewed as supportive of an inference that Chaffee County intended to convey the water rights with the placer parcels described in the treasurer's deed, theevidence of long and continued nonuse for several decades following the tax sale by the purchasers of the treasurer's deeds and those claiming under them provides a firm evidentiary basis for the water court's finding of abandonment. See Knapp, 131 Colo. at 47-48, 279 P.2d at 423.
With respect to the three placer parcels located in Lake County, a 1919 treasurer's deed on one of the parcels contained no reference to water rights, but treasurer's deeds issued in 1929 and 1935 for the other two parcels did include the water rights in the conveyances. However, even though Lake County intended to convey the water rights in connection with the sale of at least two of the placer mining parcels, there was sufficient evidence in the record from which the


expressly determined by the water court, was not supported by evidence showing that such use was "under any claim of right to the subject water rights or with the permission of any owner through whom [Twin Lakes Associates and O'Neill] claim." Moreover, there was evidence showing that the ditches and diversion structures, for the most part, were incapable of carrying water from the early 1920s and that, even with a few minor repairs made during the 1940s and in later years, they were never restored to a usable state. Finally, the water judge during the trial viewed portions of the Arlington, Cache Creek, and Clear Creek Ditches and found that the Arlington and Clear Creek Ditches were "greatly dilapidated and in a state of utter disrepair" and thatnot make a detailed finding of nonuse with respect to this water right, the court did find at the conclusion of Southeastern's case that from June 24, 1912, to the present there had been nonuse of the "subject water rights" decreed on March 18, 1912, and that this period of nonuse established a prima facie case of abandonment. Clearly, the water right originally decreed to the Lost Canyon branch of the Cache Creek Ditch was part of the "subject water rights" involved in the instant litigation.[5] Moreover, at the conclusion of all the evidence the water court made two findings which clearly show that the Lost Canyon water right was within the intendment and scope of the water court's ruling on abandonment. One of those findings was basically


Creek Ditch (priority 13 for 25 cubic feet per second appropriated on November 8, 1861, and priority 14 for 15 cubic feet per second appropriated on January 1, 1862); three rights to the Arlington Ditch (priority 15 for 25 cubic feet per second appropriated on January 1, 1862, priority 17 for 15 cubic feet per second appropriated on January 1, 1873, and priority 19 for 10 cubic feet per second appropriated on April 19, 1897); and one right to the Clear Creek Ditch (priority 18 for 50 cubic feet per second appropriated on October 24, 1882).
[4]  Twin Lakes Associates and O'Neill also emphasize that part of their case which showed that as a teenager O'Neill and his grandfather exercised the water rights in question in the early1940s, using different points of diversion from those decreed in 1912. Such sporadic use, while obviously relevant to the issue of intent, was insufficient in the water court's view to rebut the presumption of abandonment. Twin Lakes Associates and O'Neill also point to testimony concerning O'Neill's recent improvements to the ditches and use of water. The water court, however, had sufficient evidence to decide that the water rights had been abandoned long before O'Neill began to make improvements along the ditches.
[5]  One of Southeastern's witnesses was Edward Butkovich, who testified that from 1960 to the present he spent many summer weekends mining on lands belonging to the Bureau of Land Management. He used undecreed water on these ventures, and he never saw the owner of much of

University of Wisconsin senior running back Corey Clement and junior left tackle Ryan Ramczyk were named first team All-Big Ten Conference selections, the league announced on Wednesday.

Clement was a first-team selection by the coaches and a second-team pick by the media while Ramczyk was named a consensus first team All-Big Ten selection.

Clement has run for 1,140 yards on 271 carries with 13 rushing touchdowns for the Badgers, becoming the 17th UW running back to rush for more than 1,000 yards in a season. After a slow start to the year, including missing the non-conference game against Georgia State, Clement has six100-yard rushing performances in his last seven games.

Ramczyk has started all 12 games for the Badgers at left tackle and, according to Pro Football Focus, has allowed no sacks and only three quarterback hits on the year.

The Stevens Point native played two seasons at Division-III UW-Stevens Point before transferring to UW before the 2015 season. He sat out last season and worked on the scout team but immediately stepped in as the Badgers' best offensive lineman in 2016. His play has been so impressive, some are forecasting him as a potential first-round draft pick in the 2017 NFL draft.

Sophomore offensive lineman Beau Benzschawel and tight end Troy Fumagali were both second-team selections by the conference's coaches and third-team picks by the media. Offensive lineman Michael Deiter and wide

The procedure introduced by Donald Nuss in 1997 for the treatment of pectus excavatum at the American Pediatric Surgical Association meeting has now been adopted by pediatric, thoracic, and plastic surgeons around the world. Rather than resection of the costal cartilages and sternal fracture, which had been standard practice for decades, he advocated using a metal bar to push the sternum into position. Reasoning that the chest wall of children is very flexible, he felt that resection was unnecessary. Since that time, medical centers from around the world have reported their experience with the procedure. There is now robust evidence of its safety and efficacy. As the Nuss procedure has become a standard treatment, indications for operation


Eli Brown Leaves UK

Eli Brown, who has a ton of potential, but probably wasn't going to start next season for UK, is transferring. UK confirmed that to LEX18 Sports. With Jordan Jones coming back, it might have been tough for the former Warren East star to get on the field.

The fast linebacker had 38 tackles, which includes 2 for loss, and one pass deflection this year. The 6-foot-2 inch 215 pounder who is from Bowling Green was a 4-star prospect. He had many offers from other big time schools, but picked Kentucky.

The Safari had a good start to the week with some decent weather and a flat calm sea giving us an early morning Harbour Porpoise and a couple of Grey Seals. The tide was out and what we wanted to photograph was well out of range.

Back in the office we had an email from SD telling us he'd had at least one Bottlenose Dolphin too.

The following day we were out with the camera again to try to photograph
our target species for the Year Bird Challenge but a scan of the sea
didn't reveal any at all but there was a flock of lively gulls away to our north. Ato see what we were looking at before hitching up his horse and leaving. His caravan had metal cartwheels and made a serious drumming and rumbling noise on the road causing the cattle closest to us to stampede through the pool putting the Black Tailed Godwits to flight.

He also said he'd seen a big pale brown owl earlier which we expected would be back asleep in its barn by now.

We kept on looking for the Little Ringed Plover that's been reported regularly recently but still had no luck so started to occupy ourselves while the birds moved around a bit by watching a family of Coots.

As luck would have it a Barn Owl flew overhead with prey heading back to its nest - where had that come from

TheShe was known as Katie, a pretty, popular girl from a well-respected Rhode Island family. In high school, she excelled at music and art and worshipped David Bowie. As a freshman at Suffolk University, she majored in communications, and she and a gaggle of friends modeled themselves after the girls on “Sex and the City.”

She thought about joining the Peace Corps.

That was before 2010, when she met the man she’d drop out of school to marry, the man for whom she’d convert to Islam, the man who, three years later, would leave her with a baby daughter and the threat of jail time.

Today, at 25, Katie Russell is best known as the widow of the Boston bomber. As the first anniversary of the attack nears, she remains one


the radio or watch TV. She’d lost her virginity to him, but now, he said, they had to stop having sex. As long as they were unmarried, it was against Muslim law. He told her she had to drop all of her old friends and socialize only with Muslim girls.

“He once ripped a pair of my jeans and hit me in the face with them,” she said. Another time, he slammed her head into a car after she wore shorts and a tank to a party. She called 911 but declined to press charges.

Toward the end of their relationship, when Ascencao finally relented and wore a hijab, he’d taunt her about the other American girl he had been seeing, the one who took Islam far more seriously thanwas, friends said, infatuated, seemingly oblivious to the stares she was drawing on campus. Russell’s college roommate was convinced it was an abusive relationship.

“She stopped drinking and wouldn’t come around as much and kind of judged us for wanting to go out, and he would forbid her for wanting to go out with us,” she told CBS News. “He became very violent with her and was brainwashing her into converting into Muslim.”

Other roommates told NPR that Tsarnaev called her “slut” and “a prostitute” and threw pieces of furniture at her. Despite his supposed piety, Tsarnaev and Russell had premarital sex at least once. By early 2010, she was pregnant with their daughter, Zahara.

By that spring, Russell was living near Tsarnaev — who still resided with his family —


in Cambridge, Mass. They married six months after they met, on June 21, 2010, on the third floor of a ramshackle mosque in Dorchester. There were no guests, just two witnesses, and the ceremony lasted 15 minutes. The imam who married the couple had never met them before and never saw them again.

Russell changed her name. Now she was Karima Tsarnaeva. She dropped out of school and moved into the cramped Tsarnaev family apartment. The whole family, including Tsarnaev’s younger brother, Dzhokhar, and two sisters lived there. His parents were on and off welfare, and the rent was subsidized by a Section 8 voucher.

The whole Tsarnaev family was loathed by the neighborhood. They were loud, obnoxious, entitled, the father dumping his waste into other people’s garbage cans andwas early in the morning as she left their apartment for work on April 18.

It was the last day of Tsarnaev’s life. He and Dzhokhar had been identified by the FBI, then the media, as the bombers. They were now the targets of a nationwide manhunt.

They went on the run, killing a cop on the MIT campus and carjacking a Mercedes SUV before a Watertown officer spotted them a little after 1 a.m. A wild gunfight ensued, and while Tamerlan sustained gunshot wounds to his torso and extremities, he was killed when his brother, making his escape, ran over him with the SUV. Dzhokhar was later captured alive.

Russell has always claimed to be shocked and appalled by her husband’s actions, and to have had no knowledge whatsoever of

The envisioned role would mean Carrick, who turns 36 in July, still being involved with the first team – although his playing time would more likely be around half the 35 games he has featured in this season.

He is also seen as the ideal experienced senior star to help United’s Under-23 side in a role that would involve both coaching and playing with youngsters who are looking to step up to the first team.

The feeling is mutual, Clinton

She old, sick, and hacks like Bill the Cat. Into this mess, Bill the Impeached President wades, and he is frustrated, and he is angry, and he is impotent.

Bill the Cat.

So Bill the Perjurer takes it out on West Virginia, a state wrecked by 82 years of Democratic Party control of the Statehouse. We finally fumigated the place in the last election.

Speaking in Homewood, PA on Friday, Bill Clinton criticized the “coal people” in West Virginia for supporting Donald Trump.

“We all know how [Hillary’s] opponent has done well down in West Virginia and eastern Kentucky,” theformer president told the crowd at the Greater Pittsburgh Coliseum. “The coal people don’t like any of us [Democrats] anymore.”

He called us ingrates and implied we are lazy. But the truth is we finally caught on.

After decades of being the second-poorest state in the union, West Virginians finally dumped the Democratic Party.

Nothing personal but -- yes, it is personal. I drive by the closed chemical plants in Nitro every day. Nothing is left but a few antique stores, and fast-food joints over by the Interstate Exit.

Bill the Rapist is a crook who pardoned billionaire international fugitive from justice (as liberals called him before the pardon) Marc Rich, who sold Iranian oil during the embargo. He bought the aluminum plant in Ravenswood, West Virginia, and turned it into poo.

All


those roads Byrd "built" were bones thrown to a state whose ambitious young people used them to leave. We were the first state hit by the wave of abuse of OxyContin -- the pharmaceutical industry's entry into the illicit drug business. How do poor people afford drugs? Food stamps, Medicaid, and other government assistance, that's how.

Clinton and liberalism are a drag on the ticket and not just in West Virginia. Ted Strickland just pulled his ads for the Senate in Ohio. Two months from Election Day, he knows it is hopeless. Obama fundamentally transformed the Democratic Party, doing for his party what Obamacare did for hospitalization insurance.

And Hillary is more of the same, only in an unlikable, old, sick, and openly corrupt way.

A growing measles outbreak in Washington state led the governor to declare a state of emergency on Friday. Now, 35 cases have been confirmed in Clark County, a southwestern county that includes Vancouver, and 11 potential cases are awaiting confirmation. There has also been one confirmed case in King County, which includes Seattle.

So why the emergency declaration? Because measles is a highly contagious disease. The virus can live for up to two hours wherever an infected person has coughed or sneezed. According to The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 90 percent of non-vaccinated individuals exposed to someone with the disease will also become infected.

Once upon a time, the United States had eliminated the measles, but outbreaks have increased as the anti-vaccine movement takes hold — and 18No reason for optimism: the expected impact of commitments in the European Commission's Alcohol and Health Forum.

MABANK, Texas (AP) — Former two-time All-Pro linebacker Isiah Robertson was killed when the limousine he was driving skidded on a rain-slicked curve on a dark, ruralEast Texas highway and was hit by two other vehicles.

The Texas Department of Public Safety reports the crash happened about 10 p.m. Thursday on Texas Route 198 almost 6 miles (9 kilometers) north of Mabank (MAY'-bank) and 50 miles (80 kilometers) southeast of Dallas. A DPS statement says the limousine Robertson was driving entered the curve at an unsafe speed for the rainy conditions. It veered off the road and skidded sideways before coming to a stop partially on the road. A pickup truck following behind hit the limo, knocking the limo into the southbound lane where it was slammed by an oncoming car.

Robertson, a 69-year-old Garland resident, was taken to an Athens hospital 20 miles (32 kilometers) away, where he died. The truck driver was treated for


minor injuries and discharged. The other car driver was unhurt.

The Los Angeles Rams drafted Robertson from Southern University in the first round of the 1971 NFL draft. He remained with the Rams through 1978, then played in 1979-82 for the Buffalo Bills. He was named first-team All-Pro in 1973 and 1976 and was chosen for the Pro Bowl in his rookie 1971 season, as well as 1973-77.

In a statement, the Rams said: "We are deeply saddened by the loss of one of our Legends, Isiah Robertson. He will be remembered not only for the great player he was, helping our team achieve multiple division championships in the '70s, but also by the work he did helping others through the House of Isaiah recovery center he founded in Texas."

A hole in the middle of this carved toy boat may have been bored to hold a mast and a sail.

A wooden toy discovered during an excavation of an Iron Age site in central Norway hints that 1,000 years ago, a child may have imagined ferocious Viking battles by playing with a carved replica of a ship.

Found buried in a dry well at a small farm in the town of Ørland on the coastal tundra, the boat is whittled in a style resembling Viking vessels, with an uplifted prow and a hole in the center that likely held a mast for a sail.

The Viking Age, dating from around A.D. 800 to 1066, marked a time when Scandinavian sailors and explorers voyaged to Europe's coastal regions and as farshoes

Also found in the well — and in another well nearby — were leather pieces from shoes, dating to approximately A.D. 1015 to 1028. Seven farms and farmyards at least 1,500 years old have been uncovered at the site, and archaeologists are piecing together what these clustered homesteads might reveal about community life during the Middle Ages, according to Ingrid Ystgaard, an archaeologist at the NTNU University Museum and project manager of the dig.

G-Rex was the final LMS team to qualify for the World Championship and will play its first game in the Play-In Stage in Seoul, South Korea on October 2nd. The dino squad had the easiest road to the LMS’s 2nd seed after its runner-up finish in spring, but meta changes badly burned the team. G-Rex missed playoffs by a hair and descended to the Regional Qualifier.

Even so, G-Rex managed to bring it together and qualify via the Regional Qualifier through virtue of its large roster, return to spring synergy, and help from an unlikely veteran.

Roster rotation

G-Rex started out the year as one of the best teams in the LMS, but was still a league below the dominant Flash Wolves. Despite that, the team carved out a significant identitySummer Split featured a lack of traditional AD carries and Stitch initially struggled to adapt, but once the team moved towards playing around AD carries regardless of meta — Stitch and G-Rex succeeded. The former Samsung Galaxy sub returned to his safe and consistent individual form, but pk and Koala’s rebounds were necessary for it to succeed.

Pk suffered in summer like much of G-Rex, but he still stands out as the most self-sufficient top laner in the league, while also being able to flex on both carries and tanks. As traditional in the LMS, pk is the heel of G-Rex and allows the rest of the map to be played freely without concern for the topside. Pk’s return to form toward the end of summer and during the


Group stages.

An unlikely veteran

Despite its success, G-Rex was a predictable, inflexible team with language issues that eventually fell the team in summer. The team adapted quickly, but the return of Canadian jungler, Empt2y, really changed the team equation. Empt2y previously played for Midnight Sun Esports before being banned from competitive play for a year. He attempted comebacks on Wayi Spider and Kowloon Esports, but they just didn’t work out. Eventually, he found his home on G-Rex and granted them a new dimension.

Empt2y has actually been part of the G-Rex roster since Spring Split, but didn’t receive playtime once Baybay came into the roster. Finally, Empt2y came back at the end of summer, clearly rejuvenated and closing in on his peak form. On top of his play, Empt2y contributesThe Darwin Vampires

The Darwin Vampires, Patrick Chapman’s fifth collection, draws on life as much as on imagination – to explore themes of memory, death, fractured love, and the often-harrowing strangeness of the world around us.

From the Pushcart Prize-nominated title poem, with its dreamlike take on the evolution of the undead, through heartbreaking elegies for lost childhood innocence, to the final, affecting sequence on mortality, The Darwin Vampires is an addictive and immersive experience that you’ll want to return to again and again.

Patrick Chapman was born in 1968 and lives in Dublin. The Darwin Vampires is his fifth collection, following Jazztown (1991), The New Pornography (Salmon Poetry, 1996), Breaking Hearts and Traffic Lights (Salmon Poetry, 2007) and A Shopping Mall on Mars (2008). He has also written a book


of short stories, The Wow Signal (2007), an audio play, Doctor Who: Fear of the Daleks (2007); Burning the Bed (2003), an award-winning film starring Gina McKee and Aidan Gillen; and episodes of the CBeebies and RTÉ series Garth & Bev (2009/10). With Philip Casey, he founded the Irish Literary Revival website in 2006. He has been a finalist twice in the Sunday Tribune Hennessy Literary Awards, while his story ‘A Ghost’ won first prize in the Cinescape Genre Literary Competition in L.A. The title poem of The Darwin Vampires was nominated for a Pushcart Prize.For the second time in two years, Chuck Fletcher is selecting the rising star instead of the recycled vet.

The Wild general manager hopes the second time goes better than the first.

Mike Yeo, who at 37 is even younger than his predecessor, Todd Richards, was when hired as Wild coach, will become the youngest coach in the NHL when he is introduced at a news conference at 11 a.m Friday.

The bold hire for a team that has missed the playoffs for three consecutive years comes after Yeo completed his rookie American Hockey League season by guiding the Houston Aeros to the Calder Cup finals.

"It's awesome," the supremely confident Yeo said before boarding a flight from Houston to Minnesota on Thursday.

Like Richards, who beat out veterans Dave Tippett and Peter


Laviolette in June 2009, Yeo is being hired over veterans Craig MacTavish and Ken Hitchcock two years later.

WILD NEW COACH

Yeo's hiring came on the same day MacTavish, who never was offered the Wild job, interviewed with the new Winnipeg franchise. Yeo impressed GM Fletcher during his lone interview last Friday, but he and Fletcher know each other from their days in Pittsburgh and the two spent many days together during Houston's playoff run.

Yeo's task will be to take a middle-of-the-road franchise with an increasingly frustrated fan base and steer it back on track.

"He's a very loyal, passionate, hard-working guy. He's a smart guy," Pittsburgh Penguins GM Ray Shero said of Yeo (pronounced "Yo"). "This just seems his time. When you're around him, you understand why. He's a youngguy, but he's seen a lot of things and experienced a lot of things in the National Hockey League already.

"That's why I don't perceive Mike Yeo as a minor league coach coming up to coach in the NHL. He's an NHL coach that stopped in the AHL to get head-coach experience."

A former minor league grinder who captained the Aeros to a Turner Cup title in 1999, Yeo spent five years as an assistant with the Penguins. In 2008, Yeo went to the Stanley Cup Finals alongside Michel Therrien, another coach he beat out for the Wild job. A year later, after Therrien was fired, Yeo helped win the Stanley Cup as Dan Bylsma's assistant. Fletcher was assistant GM of the Penguins while Yeo was there.

"When I look back,


I can say Mike was so ready to be a head coach," Bylsma said last month. "His work ethic is diligent. The guy is relentless in trying to come up with the right answers and trying to come up with the plan and message to the team.

"He was a big part of our backbone. He did a lot of the nuts and bolts and a lot of the work in putting together the presentation of the system to the team."

Yeo is known to work tirelessly, and in January 2010 had to leave the Penguins for two weeks after experiencing chest pains and light-headedness on the bench. He was diagnosed with high blood pressure and now takes medicine and says, "I'm fine."

After the 2009-10 season, Yeo realized to reachhis ultimate goal of NHL head coach, he would have to leave the comfy confines of Pittsburgh and become a head coach in the minors. He guided the Aeros to the second-best record (46-28-6) in the Western Conference despite a revolving door of players shuttling back and forth to Minnesota.

The Aeros played a structured, physical, forechecking, defensively sound style and had immense success despite a lack of offensive firepower.

"He really, really knows how to coach his players," said 2007 first-round draft pick Colton Gillies. "It's all about the process with him, the little things that require you to win games. He prepares you so, so well. I'm just really happy for him. I think he deserves it. He's done wonders for my career already."

Yeo's departure in Houston opens
