The Begay family of Castle Dale recently took part in the opening ceremonies at the Olympic Games. They also sold their world famous Navajo tacos at the Ethnic Village in Salt Lake.
They spent most of January practicing for the opening ceremonies. Joe, Shirley, Jacob and Joleen were all involved in the opening ceremonies. Joleen said, "It was the first time in history that the five tribes from Utah had come together. It was an awesome feeling. I was so proud to be a Native American that night and so thankful to be there."
The five tribes participated in their ceremonial dances. There were drummers to accompany the many dancers. Joleen said, "The Yei-bi-che dancers are the spiritual dancers from our tribe. The author of the song, "Go My Son," also participated in the ceremonies. It was neat to meet her. My aunt Jane Shaw came from California to participate as well. One of my favorite parts was when each of the leaders from the five tribes prayed in their own language. It was awesome," said Joleen.
Shirley said, "We practiced for three months. The last week before the opening ceremonies we were there from Sunday night through Friday. The dress rehersal on Wednesday night was really nice. They gave us some tickets so our families could come and watch. We met so many wonderful people. It was really nice to be in the stadium with the Shosone, Goshutes, Piutes, Southern Utes, Northern Utes and the Navajos and to be part of the opening ceremonies. It was nice to be with so many Native Americans. They filled the whole stadium and were all dressed in traditional outfits.
"This was the first time so many have met and performed on national television. We were treated with such respect and the audience on the night of the dress rehersal payed tribute to all the Native Americans with a standing ovation. Kenneth Maryboy is the spiritual leader for the Navajos and he led the Navajo nation out. The spiritual dancers, the Yei-bi-che are allowed only to dance in the winter so it worked out for the Winter Olympics.
"It was so wonderful I would do it again in a minute. The people were so kind and loving. They were helpful and polite. They fed us while we were there. The practices would begin at 8 a.m. and end at 10 at night. It was a wonderful experience. When they first approached us about going up to perform I was a little hesitant. Jacob would have to miss school and I thought of all the trips to Salt Lake and the gas money; but my daughter Joleen said, 'Mother, do you know what this means? This is a once in a lifetime experience.' She was shocked that I would even consider not doing it. So she talked us into it and I'm glad she did.
"Jacob was a little hesitant at first. There weren't a lot of kids there. But we met a man with two little boys and Jacob had a good time with them and they were sad to see it all end because they knew they might not see each other again. The school district was great to work with Jacob. He is 13-years-old and it was a neat experience for him. Joe, my husband really had a good time too. He met people he used to go to high school with. My daughter Joleen had a lot of friends there too. A BYU group called Living Legends performed with the Dixie Chicks. Joleen knew many of those performers.
"We also sold Navajo tacos at the Ethnic Village. We met a lot of people there from all over the world. There were so many groups and we made wonderful friends. Everybody loved Jacob and brought him food. There was a Polynesian grandma in the stand next to us that adopted Jacob. I traded Olympic pins and there was a Navajo taco pin that I wanted but they were sold out of them. Then one day a man and his wife came by and wanted to trade pins. The man had a Navajo taco pin which I ended up buying from him. I was happy about that. It also turned out that the man was the father of Randy Johnson's son-in-law.
"The support we had from the county people was really nice. We had people tell us they knew we were up there and just came up to find us and have a taco. We really appreciated that," said Shirley.
Joe said, "It was a once in a lifetime experience. It was kinda fun. I performed for a year with the Lamanite Generation at BYU and preparing for this performance was a lot like that. This brought back many memories of those performances. There is a lot of excitement in performing. It was a lot of hard work.
"It was fun to be with my wife and kids and to do this as a family. It was neat to be with all five nations from Utah. It was neat that most of the skaters were hockey players and that only four or five professional skaters performed. We also spend two weeks in the Ethnic Village. There was great talent there. Food and crafts from different nations it was kind of neat. We stayed in an RV camp right down town. It was kind of interesting and fun. We really enjoyed being and working together. One day at the Ethnic Village we had a lot of excitement because there was a fire and the huge tent had to be evacuated. This was the same day that we had school children there and we had to open the backs of our booths and feed the children out on the sidewalk. We traded food and crafts.
"I think the most memorable experience for me was coming into the stadium and seeing the crowd. The eagle was also awesome. In the rehersal it had never landed where it was supposed to, but that night it came in and flew around and landed exactly where he was supposed to. The electricity in the air as we danced as a nation was indescribable. Our nation did a ribbon dance, song and dance, fancy dance and traditional powwow. The Shoshone tribe in Utah is not that big so they brought in other people to help them. We probably had 500 Native Americans in the circle. It was neat to see.
"We met people from all around the country. We didn't have beer at the Ethnic Village and some people came in looking for beer. It was neat to see that all the faiths supported the no beer garden policy. A lot of the downtown vendors sold a lot of beer and not much food. We didn't figure business was hurt any because they couldn't get beer there. We had a lot of support from the Salt Lake people. Each country had their own hospitality so we didn't feed a lot of athletes are anything like that.
"I was interviewed by people from Japan, Germany and Austria. Jay Leno's camera crew came in one day and took pictures. The Hispanic channel also highlighted each group on their show. It worked out good. It was a good, fun, family experience. We made a lot of good friends we plan on keeping in touch with. Shirley even met some relatives from Idaho that had come down," said Joe.
The Begay family has many memories they will treasure for a lifetime. Joe even mentioned going to Italy for the next Olympics. The Begay family currently has three children serving missions for the LDS church. Shirley mentioned her daughter, Vileena, had been a Living Legends performer prior to her mission and they wanted her to postpone leaving on her mission until after the Olympics so she could perform with them. But, she decided that serving her mission was where she needed to be.

Displaced nursing facility residents settling in
BRISTOL, Va. - Nearly 70 residents at Bristol Health and Rehabilitation Center have had to move out of their rooms in the last month.
We've reported on their funding cuts by Medicaid and Medicare after an investigation by the Tennessee Health Department, which found several issues.
But now with so many people needing a new place to call home, we learned it's been a team effort by local nursing facilities to help in the transition.
Room 106 at the Cambridge House is now Elli Walls' new home. "I haven't got everything unpacked yet. I've still got one box to bring," Elli told us.
She's one of about 25 new residents there who recently had to move out of Bristol Health and Rehabilitation Center.
Cambridge Admissions Director Velma Barr-Malcolm tells us so far it's been a simple transition because these residents were already Medicaid-approved, but the transition still requires a lot of work. "We get their medical history, copy the orders. I know a couple nurse practitioners spend extra time writing prescriptions," she explained.
At Grace Healthcare in Abingdon, we're told about 16 patients from Bristol Health and Rehabilitation Center have been moved and staff is still expecting more referrals.
We learned area nursing facilities, Medicare and Medicaid authorities, and even family members are doing all they can to make this move less of a challenge. "Everybody has worked together," said Barr-Malcom. "They've been excellent in helping each other and getting these people where they need to go, making it easy on the patient as you can."
"People so far have been nice to me, courteous," Elli told us.
Grace Healthcare tells us they've recently hired several employees from Bristol Health and Rehabilitation Center.
We've learned the Cambridge House is also accepting applications from staff at the Bristol nursing facility.

Best Hairdryer I've OwnedI have naturally curly hair but i have been getting it chemically straightened with Yuko treatments for about 3 years now. I come out of the shower now and I can let my hair air dry, and it comes out pretty straight but i always want to run a straightener though it. I was looking for a better dryer to blow my hair out straight so I didn't have to use the straightener so much any more. I was a little skeptical purchasing this hair dryer because I've never spent more than 30 bucks on one before. This dryer is by far the best dryer I've used. I love it!!Jul 11, 2011Nicole C.HAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Thick or Coarse Hair / Chemically Treated Hair

Best Hair DryerI've always bought Conair hair dryers, which left my curly hair frizzy and took forever to dry. I'm amazed at the results of this hair dryer, do not hesitate on buying it, you will not regret it. I got it along with the Sedu Revolution Pro Ionic Finger Diffuser and it dries my curly hair amazingly.Jul 6, 2011MarciaHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Awesome DryerThis blow dryer is the best thing i have ever bought in my life. I use to use one that i bought at wal-mart for $50, it seemed like it would be pretty good. It got the job done, but it would take FOREVER. I blow-dry my hair in sections and it use to take me a half hour to completely dry all of my hair, it was ridiculous. Then on top of that it would take me about 20 to go through and flat iron all of the frizz/poofiness out. I told my hair dresser how long it took me to do my hair and she told me i needed to get a professional dryer. So, i went on google and typed in "top 10 professional hair dryers" and up came folica.com. I found this dryer and read some reviews, i was reluctant to buy it because of the price, but i couldn't stand the thought of having to torture myself to do my hair anymore. The first time i used it, i fell in love. It cut my drying time IN HALF!! 15 minutes and i was done. Not only did it speed up my drying time, it eliminated my frizz! LOVE the fact that it comes with the ionic switch. My hair not only dried quicker it was smoother too. That then cut my straightening down to 5 min just to fix a few pieces here and there. Less heat = less damage. This dryer changed my entire hair routine and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! I think everyone can appreciate being able to get ready quickly and still looking like you spent forever!! I would definitely recommend this dryer if you have thick/coarse hair, no matter what length. It's amazing. Also, gotta love how small it is! It's crazy how much power it packs!!Jun 28, 2011Courtney / United StatesHAIR TYPEAuburn / Normal Hair / Color Treated Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Wish It Worked Longer Than 3 Months!!I rec'd this hair dryer in Dec. 2010 for Christmas. I had the Chi Rocket for years, but decided to try this based on Folica's "best" recommedation. When first using the dryer, I loved it, felt like it delivered on all the great reviews that I read. In March, 2011, when I went to plug in the dryer, once the prong on the dryer touched the outlet opening, it buzzed and scared the heck out of me! I clld Folica Cust. Svc who replaced the dryer under warranty right away. Now 3 months later, THE SAME ISSUE!!! I couldn't believe it and thought that maybe it was something in my house! I brought the dryer into work - 10 miles away and tried it in the ladies room and the kitchen area - SAME RESULTS. In fact, it almost burned down my company because it started smoking!! I have no idea why the same issue happened in the same amount of time...the dryer is not abused as most times my hair is in a ponytail and I use it for my bangs for a minimal amount of time. With that being said, Folica is coming thru again and I am returning the Sedu, but I'm replacing it w/the Chi Rocket....I'm going back to what I had that worked for much longer than 3 months! Now I have to get my outlet in my bathroom working since the Sedu seemed to have blown that! Good Luck to others who get theirs to last longer than 3 months!Jun 15, 2011Kathy / Boston, MAHAIR TYPEThick or Coarse Hair

Beautiful HairTo get beautiful hair you got to use the right products. I was use to buying the drug store brand hair dryers but all it did was take up my time and dry my ends causing split ends and monthly trips to the hair salon. With the Sedu Revolution Pro Tourmaline Ionic 4000i Hair Dryer it takes more than half the time to dry my hair and little damage done. I save much more money using this hair dryer and i recommend it to anyone who wants beautiful, healthy hairJun 12, 2011Sandra L. / United StatesHAIR TYPEBlonde / Oily Hair / Color Treated Hair

Sedu 4000iI had to write about this product. WOW!!! It left my hair soft, shiney and frizz free.
My hair didn't even frizz up in 98 degree heat and humidity weather. I received so many compliments about how good my hair looked. It is a bit pricey but worth it.
so happy I decided to try it.

Almost As Good As The T3 BespokeI like the Sedu a lot. It does the job quickly and is easy to use. My favorite dryer is the T3 Bespoke which dries quickly and is even quieter than the Sedu. I think the two are comparable, but the T3 seems to leave my hair a bit shinier.The Sedu is a bit less expensive so that weighs in its favor. Can't go wrong with either one.Jun 9, 2011SerlHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Normal Hair / Color Treated Hair

So DisappointedAfter reading many reviews and seeing this product as the top rated hair dryer, I finally decided to go for it. I previously had a Chi Rocket for four years which I loved but after a few drops by my daughter, it just wasn't working right anymore. This dryer is so cumbersome to use. The small design concentrates the weight in the small body making it feel extra heavy. The short barrel makes styling difficult. It does dry your hair okay but I was much happier with my Chi. My 17 year old daughter doesn't like it either. She said it makes her hair too flat.

Fast Results!This hair dryer is amazing for those of us who have had it with sweating our makeup off and getting bored and giving up on finishing our blow drying. Cuts the heat and time it takes to get the job done at least in half! My husband could not believe that I was ready to go out in no time flat after warning him that I had to blow dry my hair beforehand. Quality construction is evident compared to handling other dryers. Compact size is great for storage and travel. The only downfall is that universal diffusers do not fit on this dryer, which forces you to purchase theirs. Had I realized this, I would have bought the Super Solano but that being said, I do love this blow dryer and know that I will have it for many years to come.Jun 8, 2011Claudia M. / Northern VAHAIR TYPEBlonde / Color Treated Hair

Abilene ISD takes proactive approach to cyber-bullying
ABILENE, Texas - Teachers and parents are no longer only dealing with the typical school yard fight or spat in the cafeteria.
Bullying has a taken a whole new meaning. Cyberbullying is center stage in many places. Last month, a 12 year-old girl in central Florida jumped to her death from a tower at an abandoned concrete plant and up to 15 kids cyberbullied her. Two girls ages 12 and 14 were arrested. Officers say one of the suspects has shown no remorse for the deceased girl.
Abilene school district administrators said they can't control everything kids do. Being proactive is key in the school putting a stop to these actions from students.
"The case in Florida that has gotten a bunch of national attention is a wake up call," Abilene Independent School District Director of Communications Phillip Ashby said. "It used to be the neighborhood fight ended up disrupting the school day, because they would be in the same school. Now with cyberbullying those problems are so much more widespread."
Cyberbullying is no longer just about computers anymore. It's more about mobile devices.
"Your child may have no issues on their Facebook site, but they may be having issues on another site and you can't just ignore new apps that have been put on your child's phones," Craig Middle School Principal Dan Dukes said.
AISD High Schools allows cell phones during the passing periods and lunch hour. However, even much younger kids now have smart phones. Principal Dukes said their best strategy is to get ahead of the cyberbullying problem.
"We talk about the laws," Dukes said. "We talk about the consequences that come in a serious situation in which you are the bully."
Another tactic that Craig Middle School uses is workshops with their school resource officers to better explain the consequences. The person responsible could have criminal charges of harassment which could mean up to 10 years in prison In worst case scenarios, it could cost the victim their life.

Oak Creek girls close to clinching Southeast hoops title
Two wins this week will do the trick
The Southeast Conference title is just two games away for the Oak Creek girls basketball team.
And the Knights made it a lot easier on themselves last week by not letting down after a series of big victories. They belted Kenosha Bradford, 53-15, last Friday after overcoming a physical Racine Case team, 55-40, Jan. 29.
With the wins, the Knights are now 11-0 in league play and 17-1 overall. They were out to clinch a tie for the title Tuesday at home against Kenosha Tremper and if they won that, they would be able to clinch the outright crown Friday at home against Racine Horlick (7:15 p.m.).
"Everybody is just playing very well right now," coach Steve Hluchnik said. "Our defense has been solid, everybody's contributing. It'll be nice if we can get this done this week."
Oak Creek, second ranked in state, did itself plenty of favors last Friday against an overmatched Bradford squad. They were up 15-5 at the quarter and then held the Red Devils to a combined two points in the second and third quarters to pull away.
Hluchnik was able to empty the bench and get everyone some good minutes, as junior forward Tamya Sims continues to be an impressive force all over the court with 12 points and 10 rebounds. She got help from fellow junior Stephanie Kostowicz with 10 points.
The posts were dominant against the defending league champions from Case on Jan. 29. Kostowicz had 26 points and eight rebounds and Sims, who Hluchnik said didn't feel like she played very well, had a triple double of 16 points, 10 rebounds and 10 blocked shots.
"She was talking to me," Hluchnik said of Sims, "and she said she felt bad about her game and I said, 'You had a triple double!' You look at the box every game and you see what she's doing. We're hard on her but she's harder on herself. She feels she's having a good year but feels she can do even better."
A fast start put the Knights in good position against Case, as they got out to a 15-2 first quarter advantage and were up 26-18 at the half. They were able to stretch it out to 44-31 at the end of three quarters.
"We hit a bunch of shots early and that really helped," Hluchnik said, "but Case is still Case. They haven't the players they used to have, but they're still good and they're still physical. They basically beat the crap out of us, especially Morgan (point guard Kokta). But a game like this can only help us. We fought back and got it back up to a comfortable lead in the second half and I don't think it dropped below 13 points."
A nice turn last week for the Knights was the return of senior guard Sam Erdman. She missed the entire season to this point while recovering from a knee injury. Hluchnik said everyone was happy to see her back.

Living Fit in Fairfax
The School Age Child Care program is partnering with Fairfax County Public Schools and the Fairfax County Department of Neighborhood and Community Services on a three-year project that supports the health and fitness of children in kindergarten through sixth grade. The goal of the program is to help children make sustained changes in food choices and exercise habits, and learn how to independently manage their health and fitness for a lifetime.
"All three partners will use a curriculum developed by health and physical education specialists that offers fun, coordinated lessons on healthy habits, fitness, interpersonal skills, and daily wellness practices," explained SACC Program Administrator Beth Leggat, who is the project liaison for SACC.
The curriculum is designed to integrate nutrition and fitness information into reading, writing, math and the creative arts.
"The same information children receive during the day in school will be reinforced in their after-school programs," Leggat said.
The fitness component will feature information and activities that promote children's muscle strength and endurance, cardiorespiratory endurance, and flexibility.
"Children naturally love to engage in movement and physical activity. This program will help them understand how their bodies benefit from each type of activity, and why it's important to continue being physically active for the rest of their lives," Leggat said.
The project is the result of a grant the Fairfax County Public Schools received from the U.S. Department of Education.

Reasoning (though it doesn't matter): Because Bebe is a programmer (it's a programming term) and it's not a 'routine' relationship.
I've been thinking that needed to be named for a while. I think it's a good name - thank you for naming it!Originally Posted by phionebaby56
Suggestion: Pearl (Special) X His Luxray = Lionheartshipping.
Reason: Works on two levels. Figurative someone who's said to be lionhearted is very courage. Literal Luxray is based on a lion. So if a Luxray had feelings for you, you'd be lionhearted as well.
Lol Vy, thanks for the reminder. XD
But yeah, I would go for LasciviousShipping for them, as agreed upon with my other friends.

Ralph Goodale Minister of Finance
Mr. Speaker, the hon. gentleman will know that this issue arose as the result of a complaint by a junior hockey player with respect to his particular rights and interests. That has led to a number of investigations and inquiries.
Two things are particularly important: first, that the law be applied with absolute precision and equity everywhere in the country, with no favouritism and no discrimination anywhere; and second, that we be prepared to review the law to ensure that it is in tune with the times.
The hon. gentleman has tabled a bill. I will be interested to see what it says.

Mr. Speaker, the posters are up and graffiti is appearing on the streets in Ottawa. No, it is not a festival, but a planned demonstration on the visit of U.S. President George W. Bush to Ottawa. The slogan of the demonstration is, "When Bush comes to shove". I am concerned this may be a call to violence.
Will the minister guarantee today the safety of all visiting dignitaries, Canadians and property, both public and private?

Mr. Speaker, the security of visitors to our country is a matter of key importance to all of us.

James Rajotte Edmonton—Leduc, AB
Mr. Speaker, in 1996 the government signed the World Intellectual Property Organization treaty. The treaty was necessary to update our copyright laws to ensure that our artists such as Tom Cochrane, Amy Sky and Blue Rodeo received fair compensation for the music they create.
The Conservative Party supports amending our copyright laws to be in accordance with international standards.
Why has the government failed for six years to ratify the treaty? Does the government not realize that because of its delays and lack of leadership, it is putting at risk millions of dollars for the music industry and putting at risk the works that our artists, like Tom Cochrane, create for Canada?

Jeanne-Le Ber
Liza Frulla Minister of Canadian Heritage and Minister responsible for Status of Women
Mr. Speaker, we have also met with members of the music industry. The whole copyright issue is indeed a critical one. We are currently drafting a copyright bill with the Minister of Industry. We intend to submit it to cabinet before Christmas, so that it can be referred to a committee during the next session.

Robert Carrier Alfred-Pellan, QC
Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Transport, who is never short on demagogic rhetoric, claims that returning 11,000 acres of land to Mirabel farmers would jeopardize Bombardier's development. This is false. Bombardier has enough space to build its new aircraft in Mirabel, if it so wishes.
The real threat to Bombardier is a lack of federal assistance to help it develop its new aircraft in Quebec. What is the Minister of Industry waiting for to act?

Winnipeg South
Reg Alcock President of the Treasury Board and Minister responsible for the Canadian Wheat Board
Mr. Speaker, as the hon. member would know, these lands are part of the ground lease with Aéroports de Montréal. The minister has consulted with it. They have looked at the future needs of the airport and they have made a decision. That decision has been conveyed.
Aerospace Industry
Oral Question Period
11:50 a.m.
Robert Carrier Alfred-Pellan, QC
Mr. Speaker, Bombardier has enough space to develop its operations in Quebec. The company is only using one third of the 104 acres that it is currently leasing in Mirabel. Moreover, an adjacent lot of 222 acres is also available. What is not available though is a federal contribution to the development, in Quebec, of Bombardier's new aircraft.
What is the minister waiting for to announce his intentions and thus ensure the creation of 5,000 jobs in Quebec?

Nova Scotia
Scott Brison Minister of Public Works and Government Services
Mr. Speaker, the Government of Canada is committed to Bombardier as it is committed to our nationwide aerospace industry, which employs 80,000 Canadians.
I can assure the hon. member that the long-standing commitment of the Government of Canada will continue to grow as Canada's aerospace industry continues to be a leader in the world.
Manufacturing Industry
Oral Question Period
11:50 a.m.
Gary Schellenberger Perth—Wellington, ON
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Industry. Many manufacturing plants in my riding are concerned about the high Canadian dollar and the impact it is having on their businesses.
Companies in my riding like Honeywell-Fram, Richardson Foods and Nuhn Industries Ltd. are well managed and efficient.
What is the government doing to protect Canadian manufacturing jobs in light of the high Canadian dollar?
Manufacturing Industry
Oral Question Period
11:50 a.m.
Ralph Goodale Minister of Finance
Mr. Speaker, as I identified in the fiscal statement of a week or 10 days ago, the rapid escalation in the value of the Canadian currency does pose a downside risk to growth in the future.
The Government of Canada is obviously anxious to foster the conditions that will encourage growth. That is why in the throne speech and in the fiscal statement we laid out a plan for productivity that we believe would help Canadian business and industry to move forward. That is why we are also prudent in the planning to ensure that nothing pushes us off our fiscal track.
Financial Institutions
Oral Question Period
11:50 a.m.
Monte Solberg Medicine Hat, AB
Mr. Speaker, the finance minister has been promising new guidelines for bank mergers for months now. Tens of billions of dollars have been tied up while investors try to figure out what the minister is doing.
Are we going to see these guidelines before Christmas? If not, when? What is the holdup?
Financial Institutions
Oral Question Period
11:50 a.m.
Ralph Goodale Minister of Finance
Mr. Speaker, the hon. gentleman in asking the question was groping for his BlackBerry. I encourage him to deal with one thing at one time, which is what I propose to do with respect to the issue of mergers.
The issue is very much before the government. As indicated earlier, we are anxious to produce a statement that lays out the guidelines for going forward. At the moment, I am taking the time to speak directly with the chief executive officers of all the major financial institutions to collect their views.
Official Languages
Oral Question Period
11:55 a.m.
Don Boudria Glengarry—Prescott—Russell, ON
Mr. Speaker, in her November 9 report, the Commissioner of Official Languages pointed out some serious shortcomings as far as official languages are concerned in our foreign missions. These included security services not being available in both languages, a large percentage of unilingual mission staff, and some English only websites.
What steps does the Minister of Foreign Affairs plan to take to remedy these very serious shortcomings?

Everyone Hates Edmonton
Jonathan Willis
August 21 2009 11:00AM
There's a feeling, often voiced around these parts, that free agents don't want to play for the Edmonton Oilers. The reasons offered are varied – anything form the weather, the nightlife, Kevin Lowe, the travel, Ritch Winter, or even being on an NHLPA blacklist.
It's overblown.
Mike Comrie really started it all.
When the local product first broke into the league with the Oilers, first as a rookie in midseason and then for the following two years as the Oilers' de facto first-line centre, he was roundly praised by the fan base.*
After his trade request - for unknown reasons - he was lambasted by that same fan base and saw his reputation run through the mud** locally. Kevin Lowe subsequently dealt him to Anaheim for Corey Perry and a first-round draft pick… only to quash the deal after failing to extort 2.5-million in bonus money from his star centre. Comrie was subsequently dealt to Philadelphia for Jeff Woywitka and the draft pick who turned into Rob Schremp.***
After Comrie followed a string of other rejections – including a ton since the lockout in the form of Mike Peca, Jaroslav Spacek, Michael Nylander, Marian Hossa, Chris Pronger and most recently Dany Heatley.
Back to Comrie. Jim Matheson recently asked Comrie about the perception that nobody wants to play in Edmonton. Here's what he said:
"I don't think that's true. There's different mentalities to every organization and every city ... everybody has a different situation. Maybe a kid from a small town in Western Canada might not like playing in Manhattan."
We look at that list of rejections, and we can see that Comrie's statement rings true. Peca publicly blamed the travel schedule. Spacek supposedly felt the same way. But that's something that could easily be said about teams like San Jose, Vancouver, Calgary and Dallas – indeed, half the Western Conference.
Michael Nylander, meanwhile, actually agreed to a deal with the Oilers (4 years, 5.5-million per season)**** only to have his wife balk at living in Edmonton, leading him to back out of the deal. For what it's worth, he now says he'd like to come play in Edmonton.
Marian Hossa turned down a mammoth deal with the Oilers in favour of a one-year contract with Detroit. Many complained that this was another symptom of the problem – ignoring the fact that Hossa also rejected Pittsburgh, a team he'd gone to the Stanley Cup final with the year before. Hossa wanted to win a Stanley Cup more than anything, and his decision to pursue one with Detroit has cost him both on the ice***** and in the pocketbook, as he signed a long-term deal in Chicago for far less money than Edmonton offered a year ago.
Pronger fits into the Nylander category; a player whose personal circumstances dictated a need to live elsewhere. Would things have worked out differently if he'd been in Calgary or Ottawa for 2005-06? It seems doubtful.
Most recently we have the example of Dany Heatley. Heatley, as readers will recall, previously demanded a trade from Atlanta. After being dealt to Ottawa, Heatley had some good years, got a shiny new contract, and then saw things go south this past season. He demanded a trade, and because of his no-trade clause was able to limit the number of teams he would accept being dealt to. Bryan Murray played hardball with him and dealt him to Edmonton, only to have Heatley dig his heels in and refuse a deal.
It really isn't a reflection on Edmonton – particularly if Heatley didn't include Edmonton in the list of places he was willing to be moved to.
None of this is to say that the Oilers have difficulty attracting free agents. But the difficulties they have are less connected to a distaste for the city then they are to the team's lousy record over the last decade – and those difficulties are shared by every other lousy team out there.
Just this summer Atlanta, for example, made a serious play for free agent forward Manny Malhotra – reportedly offering a multi-year contract at 2MM per season. Malhotra, who remains unsigned, declined to make the deal because, well, it's Atlanta.
Meanwhile Florida – a team blessed with good weather and a decent travel schedule – has seen franchise cornerstones Roberto Luongo and Jay Bouwmeester refuse to sign extensions, and has been forced to deal both of them. The reason? Those two players apparently like the idea of winning more games than they lose.
Besides, it isn't like the Oilers' don't have players who wanted to play for them. Ryan Smyth was shipped out of town after the Oilers wouldn't pay him 5.5-million per season**** (he later signed with Colorado at a 6.25MM/yr cap hit). Free agents like Petr Sykora, Jan Hejda and Marty Reasoner were put on the back-burner or ignored entirely, and that's to say nothing of Georges Laraque. Sheldon Souray and Nikolai Kahbibulin both followed the money and signed on as free agents.
The point is this: if Edmonton wins games, then it will be an attractive destination for free agents. Detroit, after all, signs whoever they want at below market rate, and it isn't because of the beauty of the city. If, on the other hand, Edmonton remains mired in mediocrity, there will be no compelling reason for free agents to sign there. That's really the bottom line.
*For proponents of various theories ("players never have their best seasons in Edmonton", or "Craig MacTavish is an idiot I wouldn't hire to coach a Grade 3 ball hockey game") Mike Comrie has never bettered the 33 goal/60 point season he recorded as a sophomore under MacTavish. The Oilers remained in the playoff chase to the bitter end with a centre depth chart consisting of Comrie, Marchant, Horcoff, Reasoner and Pittis. Todd Marchant's 34 points was the second best total among the centres, and only he and Comrie broke the elusive 23-point barrier.
**One of the least charming attributes of certain portions of the Oilers' fanbase is its tendency to make up, believe and spread the vilest possible rumours about players who have fallen out of favour. We saw it with Comrie, we saw it with Pronger and I'm sure we'll see it again. It's not a good thing.
***A dodged bullet, that one. I mean, really, this team almost got stuck with Corey Perry and Anaheim's 9th overall pick (Ladislav Smid). Fortunately, the team instead chose to grab Woywitka and the 24th overall pick – a fine decision. Can you imagine how poorly a 6'3", goal-scoring winger would fit in the current top six?
****If you haven't caught on yet, footnotes is the theme I'm running with today. In any case, for everyone complaining about Shawn Horcoff earning 5.5-million per season, imagine how you'd feel if the Oilers had given that money to Nylander instead. He's scored 37 and 33 points the last two seasons in Washington. And since we're on the subject, wasn't 5.5-million what Ryan Smyth wanted from the Oilers? It's just not a good number for Kevin Lowe.
*****I'm struggling to remember who won the 2009 Stanley Cup.
Best blog of the year for you.

Thought Danny really went to bat defending Edmonton during his pc but it's really evident that this is one of the last places he wants to be......man! i'm so bummed out right now.
....so is it best to take the anti-depressant tablet before we go to the games this year or is it best to take it soon after another brutal performance.

Far to simply of an explination. Every summer theirs an exodus from the top teams to the bottom teams. Edmonton isn't "bad" it simply isn't in the top 15-20 cities in all of North America.

Day 56 November 26, Monday: Getting to Ban Lung, Ratanakiri
waited at our hotel for a tuk-tuk to take us to the bus station for
the 8 o'clock bus. At 7:55 we start wondering what's going on. We
were used to getting picked up 40 minutes sometimes one hour before
the bus left the station. We were told to wait, so we did.
little bit later, a van stops and we were told to get on. Our
backpacks were stacked in the back and as we get on, we see that
hundreds of cans take up all the leg space in the van which means
there was absolutely no room for our legs and we had the spend to
whole 6 hour journey with our knees up. As usual the bus took in way
more people than it was meant to and this time we were 23, plus two
motorbikes tied up at the back of the van.
the van there was a French couple and a Swedish guy so it was nice to
chat with other foreigners.
we got to Banlung, we were dropped off outside of the center at a
hotel (who probably paid a commission to the driver to have us dropped
off there. Of course we don't like to be manipulated like that so we
got off the van and left. We realized later on that all the
information the hotel people gave us was a lie. We teamed up with the
other foreigners and got on a tuk-tuk that a little information
center arranged for us. We paid $3 all together to be taken to the
lake (1km away) and check a few hotels.
stayed at the fourth one because it has a nice garden and a great
view of the lake (the other had no view and had construction going
on). We we told the next few days were gonna be busy because of a
water festival or something so we had to negotiate to pay the normal
rate. We have two comfortable beds and a private bathroom.
Day 57 November 27, Tuesday: Scooter to 3 waterfalls and crater lake
we rented a scooter for $5 and went to the 3 waterfalls and crater
lake that are around Ban Lung. The scooter was clearly very old and
the ignition didn't work properly. After we figured out how to turn
the key properly for the ignition to start we were on our way to the
first waterfall.
road to the first waterfall was very bad. Ratanakiri is known for being very dusty so the roads were covered in
dust and difficult to drive on. It felt like driving on sand because
the ground was shifting under the tire. In addition to the dust the
road was full of pot holes and was very uneven.
Both of our skin and clothes
were covered in red dirt after our drive to the first waterfall.
Chaa Ong was the first waterfall
and it was the biggest and most spectacular. We walked behind the
waterfall and then climbed down to its base. We seemed to be the only
people who had driven there ourselves. There was a French family that
had taken a care and other foreigners were driven there by tuk-tuk or
motorbike taxi.
The next 2 waterfalls (Ka Tieng,
and Kinchaan) were OK and not really the way they were described to
us. The water at Kinchaan was supposed to be crystal clear and
possible to swim in, but the water was brown and not very nice. We
left the final waterfall and crossed Ban Lung on our way to the
crater lake.
The crater lake, called Boeng
Yeak Lom, is believed to have been formed by a meteor strike because
the circle is so perfect. The indigenous minority people in the area
have long considered Yeak Lom a sacred place and their legends talk
of mysterious creatures that inhabit the waters of the lake.
local Tompuon minority has a 25-year lease to manage the lake through
2021, and proceeds from the entry fee go towards improving life in the
nearby villages. However, developers, backed by local politicians,
are actively trying to have the lease anulled to build hotels and a
road around the lake, and a casino on a sacred mountain near the
When we went to the lake it was
crowded with local people who were swimming and having a barbecue. It
was nice to see local people enjoying the nature and picnicking by
the lake. It did become awkward when Julia wanted to go for a swim
(Chris was still getting over his ear infection) because local people
and monks were standing around the pier staring at us. Once the
number of people began to dwindle it was nice to enjoy the water and
the sunshine.
After the lake we came back to
our hotel as the sun was setting. We decided to go back out and eat
at a restaurant that was recommended in our guidebook. However, the
lights on our motorbike didn't work. When we told the people at the
hotel that our lights were broken they had no solution for us. They
called the shop that they rent motorbikes from and the owner said
that he only rents the motorbikes during the day, which was just an
attempt to make up a condition that didn't exist before because he
rented us a broken bike.
We told them that our friends (a
French couple that we met) had rented a motorbike at the same time as
us and that the lights on their motorbike worked (they were at the
restaurant waiting for us). They had no response for that, and the
owner talked to Chris on the phone and kept trying to lie and cover
for himself. We went to bed after telling them that we wouldn't pay
full price for the bike.
Day 58 November 28, Wednesday: Changing hotels, scooter argument
owner of the scooter rental shop came to the hotel this morning and
got in an argument with Chris about paying for the scooters. He
continued the same story as before, trying not to take responsibility
for renting us a bike that was broken. He told us he has 30 bikes and
he can't possibly check them all. About not paying, he said that when
you order food at a restaurant and there is a fly in your food you
can't send the food back! Well it's the same for the scooter. We
were planning on paying $3 since we did use the bike for part fo the
day. In the end that's what we did. We were pretty short on small
bill and the $1 bank note that Chris gave him had a one millimeter
slip on it, the owner was angry and wouldn't ask the hotel for change
so he ripped it into pieces in front of Chris and angrily returned to
his house.
though the day before we asked our hotel if they had any motorbike
rental service and they said yes, they didn't want to get involved in
any of this and said it wasn't their motorbike. It was really hard to
accept that way of thinking and that event left us frustrated for a
bike owner make a few threats like calling the police and told Chris
he would remember his face which we did not take seriously but that
man was clearly... so we didn't want to take any chances and have
trouble crossing the border so we decided to change hotels.
new hotel was an amazing restored French house. The upstairs was
entirely wooden and there was a large balcony right outside our
window. The owner is a foreigner who lives there with his father. We
dealt with the father and he was a great help: he explained
everything veyr clearly and we were left with no questions about the
hotel (in contrast to the local way of doing things).
hung around the hotel for the rest of the day. Julia took a tuk-tuk
back to our old hotel to get our bags and say goodbye to the french
couple. Chris walked into town to buy a few things. We bought our
tickets to Don Det, Laos, and the next day we will enter Laos and be
finished with Cambodia.

Once he get's over his Sasuke obsession he'll be more Kage worthy. OTOH Naruto doesn't seem to have a head for subtle and intricate gray area problems.
If he is ever chosen as Hokage, he'll need Kakashi and Iruka as Elders.
Once he get's over his Sasuke obsession he'll be more Kage worthy. OTOH Naruto doesn't seem to have a head for subtle and intricate gray area problems.

I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
naruto isn't good at thinking plan before a mission, but he can adapt basically at everything and thinking out of the box can modify his strategy to engage his enemy
shika is a strategist, but naruto has a solid grasp on tactics
i think that naruto now can lead a squad without problem if they make him work on a squad
howewer, i think that even if naruto would have gotten shika intelligence he would still be a genin
the elders (and in part sarutobi and tsunade too i think):
because this way he can be easily controlled and he had to go out on mission with a team with at least 1 jonin
for different reason
for the elders he's a weapon (they subtely stated that several time if i remember well) and need to be controlled all the time
for sarutobi/tsunade to protect him from both inside and outside source
so even if he was a Caesar reborn, he would still be a genin
When Naruto initially fought Zabuza he managed to come up with a plan to defeat an S class criminal Jounin Ninja and inform his team mate of it without even talking to him. So he was capable of leading a squad in the initial chapters of the manga. Later on in the forest of death he initiated a plan that his team figured out later that allowed them to rest while he bought them time against the Genjutsu ambushers...
Intelligence isn't an issue with Naruto it was his lack of an education combined with the fact a brick is more perceptive then he is. Naruto has natural leadership qualities that make people want to follow him even when they are the enemy. He also has this inspirational ability that brings out the best in people he meets or in Kabuto's case the worst. His tactical abilities are extremely well honed in an instinctive manner, but if you placed Shikamaru against Naruto its likely Naruto would be able to defeat him, not because he is smarter, but because Shikamaru wouldn't be able to accurately predict Naruto's actions...
Most people didn't want Naruto to become a ninja. I mean compare Rock Lee with Naruto. Naruto took the final exam 3 times and every year it was the one jutsu he completely and totally sucked at, but Rock Lee who can't even make a single Bunshin passed... Then he is assigned Kakashi the 100% fail rate teacher... If that isn't stacking the deck against Naruto I don't know what is.
naruto would completely destroy all the Genins lol.

You're exactly right, Aizen. My blade is full of hate. I didn't come here to fight you. I came here to violently hack you to pieces. I don't care if this fight costs me my position as a captain if it means being able to kill you.
I didn't think the speed and range of your attacks would suddenly jump up so much after you released. Do not misjudge a Shinigami's power."
If you make Hinamori shed even one drop of blood... I'll kill you.
Naruto doesn't need to take the exam since Kakashi is Hokage.
Naruto could take the Hokage exam if he wanted, but the final test is "can save a single friend", and Naruto is still flunking. Don't be fooled, he's only chasing after Sasuke because it will eventually look good on his resume.
Naruto is going from genin straight to hokage
reason why? just read chapter 43
I hope someone of you guy, agrees with me
Nobody does.

Runs a tad large, but incredibly comfy
"These seem to run just a bit long. I wear mostly Nike and New Balance, and a 9.5 Nike fits perfectly, but with New Balance I wear a 9 or 9.5 depending on the shoe. I tried a 9 first, but they were too small, and the 9.5 is just a bit too long, but they work well enough for light running. They're incredibly comfortable. Definitely recommend."

Without divulging the timeline of his communications with USC and agreement to become its new men's basketball coach, outgoing FGCU coach Andy Enfield this morning called it too great of a personal and professional opportunity to pass up despite his success at and affinity for FGCU.
RELATED: FGCU's Enfield heading to USC
BRACKET BRIEFING: 10 most memorable moments from NCAA tournament
The former Florida State and NBA assistant coach pointed to USC's academic and athletic reputation and the credentials of USC athletic director Pat Haden, a former Rhodes Scholar, partner in a private equity firm and winner of two national championships as a quarterback at USC in the 1970s.
"USC is an amazing place," Enfield said this morning from his office in Alico Arena on FGCU's campus. "I thought that it doesn't get any better than Pat Haden as an athletic director and the opportunity to work at a prestigious university like USC."
Enfield, who leaves FGCU two years into a five-year agreement that made him a head coach for the first time, met with his players and staff just before midnight Monday night as his agreement to become the USC coach was being announced. The meeting was emotional for all involved, Enfield said.
"That's the most difficult part is telling your players that you won't be their coach next year," Enfield said. "We were extremely close. Our whole staff is extremely close with our players. Our players have a special bond among themselves. It's never easy, and there are no words. You really can't say the right thing."
FGCU, which reached the Sweet 16 in only its second season with Division-I postseason legibility and became the first No. 15 seed in NCAA tournament history to win more than one game, returned to Southwest Florida on Saturday afternoon after losing to Florida in Dallas the night before.
Enfield, who wouldn't confirm or refute reports of his contact with Minnesota and Old Dominion regarding coaching vacancies there as well, said he "met" with Haden but had not visited USC. He would not disclose when the meeting took place.
"It's confidential," said Enfield, who is scheduled to fly out tonight for California and be introduced as USC's coach on Wednesday.
Enfield, who said all arrangements with USC were finalized on Monday, would not confirm reported details of his contract with USC, said to be for six years at more than $1 million a season.
Enfield received $157,500 this year at FGCU with bonuses of $15,000 for reaching the Sweet 16.
"I'm going to wait for USC to disclose what they want to disclose about my contract," said Enfield, noting the private institution's exclusion from the open-records laws he and FGCU are subject to in Florida.
Carefully trying to review his words while enduring even more sleep deprivation from recent weeks, Enfield said Sunday was a rare opportunity to spend time with his family.
"Had a terrific Easter church service," Enfield said. "Had a relaxing family meal and spent some time with my children. Turned my cell phone off for a few hours. It was great to not think about basketball for a day and really focus on the family."
Enfield said he hadn't spoken with any of his assistant coaches about going with him to California or being candidates to replace him at FGCU. He said he also hadn't spoken with any of his new players at USC.
"That will all be sorted out in the next couple weeks," he said. "The Final Four is coming up. As I speak to people in Los Angeles and on the telephone we'll figure out what the best direction is and try to put the best staff together we can."
Enfield said he was in the process of reaching out to FGCU's two signees for next year, Orlando-Hagerty High School's Logan Hovey and Atlanta-area North Cobb High School's Jordan Neff, to encourage them, like the rest of FGCU's current players, to stick with FGCU for 2013-2014.
"They made a commitment to come play for me and to come play at FGCU," Enfield said. "I'm encouraging them and the two signees to continue the excellence of the program, to keep building on the success and staying together.
"It changes everyone's life," Enfield said of his departure. "At the same time, they have a special opportunity here to continue what they've started. They're such a close-knit group and such a great basketball team. They've meant so much to this university in the past three weeks, it would be great to see this program continue and reach even greater heights.
"Wherever we are in life, I'll always have a relationship with these players."
FGCU has a press conference scheduled for 1:30 p.m. today with athletic director Ken Kavanagh and university president Wilson Bradshaw to discuss Enfield's departure and search for his replacement, which the school said would begin immediately.
Reports surfaced in recent weeks of FGCU's hope to double Enfield's salary next season, while another report speculated it would take a figure at least quadruple Enfield's salary to keep him at the school.
But with an entire athletic department budget of only $8.75 million in only its sixth season as a D-I school – and just second as a fully credentialed D-I member – all parties knew FGCU couldn't compete with the salaries schools like USC and others could offer Enfield.
"President Bradshaw and Ken Kavanagh have been great through this whole process," Enfield said. "FGCU has been supportive and generous to me, and there was not a counter offer that was realistic that was going to make a difference."
After his team qualified for the NCAA tournament a little more than three weeks ago, Enfield said he didn't necessarily have a dream job in mind for his future.
"Every day when I show up, and it's 75 degrees out in the morning and I know my family's happy and I've got great kids here at FGCU to coach, I'm fine with this dream job right now," Enfield said then.
Enfield on Tuesday reiterated that the decision kept his family in mind. His eldest child, daughter Aila, turns 7 today. Daughter Lily is 5, and son Marcum, born a week after Enfield took the job in Southwest Florida in 2011, turns 2 on Monday.
"This is not a financial decision only," Enfield said. "This was a very calculated decision."
Enfield has repeatedly spoken of the sacrifices made by his wife, former New York City fashion model Amanda Marcum, giving up her career to start a family and be a "coach's wife."
Enfield said any desire for the Oklahoma native to return to work was not a factor in the decision to move to Los Angeles.
"This has nothing to do with Amanda's profession," he said. "USC is very family oriented. We're looking forward to having our family spend a lot of time on campus, really enjoying one of the best universities in the country and all it has to offer."
Enfield said his wife was excited about the move, but his daughters asked if they could remain FGCU fans.
"My daughters asked if they could still root for FGCU," Enfield said. "They built some unbelievable relationships with our players and staff here. It's difficult for not only me but my wife and children too."
USC's basketball program has endured tumultuous times recently and gone through several coaches in a short time frame. As when he took the job with FGCU's then-lifeless, directionless men's basketball team, though, Enfield said he isn't worried about the past.
"I took this job (at FGCU) knowing where FGCU was. They lost 20 games four straight years," he said. "I'm not one to look at the past. I look at the future and the opportunity."
In retrospect, FGCU ultimately might have been a victim of its own success.
Sitting next to three of his players at a press conference Friday night after losing to Florida, a bleary, red-eyed Enfield thanked Kavanagh for his shared vision of taking stagnant, once-unknown FGCU to the NCAA tournament's Sweet 16. He never mentioned doing so in just two stunning years.
"I don't think anyone of us could have imagined three weeks ago that we would be the talk of the NCAA tournament on a national scale and be in the Sweet 16," Enfield said Tuesday as his phone repeatedly buzzed and rang with text messages and phone calls.
"Everything has moved so quickly in regards to the publicity for this school, the national and worldwide media attention and of course my personal situation with the job opportunities."
