A group of five girls stayed here and it was fantastic! The views were spectacular the location was spot on couldn't fault the apartment it was spotless and the finishing touch of the towels made up as swans on each bed with small toiletries was a lovely touch.

A little romantic house near lake como. It's a historic stone house, which has been restored beautifully. Perfect for two persons, but also possible with two kids.
Beautiful, comfortable flat with a magnificent view over plage du sillon
Very nice and cosy little appartment. It's small but has everything one needs, the hosts are very friendly, and the location is both quiet and beautiful. Even the dog loved the stay!
I was total satisfied - everything went smoothly. The house was clean and well equipped. Host was very nice and friendly. Nice view and environment. Great places in the neighborhood - worth to visit.
A Nice small apartment in a very nice neighborhood in Venice, few tourists but still good restaurants and very nice people. The host don't speak english but is still very nice and polite. The only thing we missed at the apartment was a AC system because the apartment gets very hot during the summer.

"Early in the exhibition games you are just trying to do a little bit of everything," stated SUU head coach JR Payne. "Sort of see what works, what doesn't work, see what areas you need to improve."
SUU built an 11-2 advantage in the first four minutes and saw the lead grow to 42-20 at the break. Senior Andrea Jones shot 3-5 from behind the arc in the early going to lead the T-Birds with 12 points in the opening period.
"We have been talking about being able to kick-start a great offensive and defensive effort in the first two minutes of the game," stated Payne. "It was a focus for them to start and everybody who came into the game continued that."
Southern Utah opened the second half on a 12-2 run as Parkinson and senior Marissa Robbins worked inside for scores to stretch the margin to 54-25 with 16:20 left to play. The Thunderbird offense was even better late in the game as the team shot 57.1 percent from the field down the stretch to eventually come out on top by a final score of 92-49.
The Thunderbirds outrebounded the Mountaineers, 44-30 and ended with 44 points in the paint to just 14 for the visitors. Southern Utah also racked up 29 points off turnovers as well as 50 bench points. In addition to the 15 points scored by Parkinson and Jackson, SUU got another 14 from Jones and 10 from Robbins. Desiree Smith led Western State Colorado with 12 points and six rebounds.
"We had good balance tonight," explained Payne. "Every single person scored and every single had a rebound which is great."
Southern Utah opens it regular season on the road next with a visit to Boise State. The T-Birds and Broncos are scheduled to tip things off on Friday at 7:00 p.m. Coverage of SUU basketball can be found at www.suutbirds.com.

A new year rings in new hope. We'll be releasing installments of this feature throughout the month of January. In the state's toughest 4A district, replacing lost seniors is quite a task. As we prepare for Spring camp, we take an early glance at the returning 25-4A all-district perfomers in 2013. This is a select group, because many other juniors/sophomores had outstanding years. These were the ones honored by the head coaches.
QB - Nate Grimm ('14)
LB - Thomas Hutchings ('15)
WR - Samuel Brock ('14)
OL - Davis Geerts ('14)
RB - Chris Hutchings ('15)
TE - Chad Whitehead ('14)
DL - Ben Harral ('14)
LB - Peter Maneikis ('14)
DB - Sean Angle ('14)
TE - Colt Owen ('14)
OL - Austin Bryant ('14)
CPFB QUICKIE: The Hutchings' Twins contributions at such an early stage will pay off big over the next two seasons. Having both TE's, plus Bryant and Geerts back up front, means Cedar Park will be able to control the line of scrimmage again. With a full year under his belt (and his favorite target Brock returning), Nate Grimm will easily top his production from what was a district-MVP season. The pressure to repeat will be great, but its a task this group can certainly accomplish.
K - Matthew Wiley ('14)
TE - Eli Shelton ('14)
TIGER NOTES: Coach Bob Schlutz was forced to play a slew of youngsters last year, due to injury. The majority of next year's starters were getting their Varsity feet wet - thus not many returning all-district selections. However, Eli Shelton could be in for a monster year. He'll be a key red zone threat, and relied on to make space for Falcon/Battle in '13. Matthew Wylie was one of the area's best kickers as a sophomore, and returns for a special senior season.
RB - Darian McClatcher ('15)
DL - Michael Epley ('14)
LB - Martin Nwakamma ('14)
LB - Greg Kelley ('14)
DB - Zach Noska ('14)
LION QUICKIE: After last year's heartbreaking, hail mary loss - Leander will be back with a vengence. Fan favorite Hopp will finally get full time snaps. McClatcher enters '13 as an offensive MVP candidate. With four top flight defensive players back, expect another year of tenacious play from Coach Salazar's side of the ball.
WR - Garrett Gray ('14)
RB - Keith Jerome ('14)
MUSTANG QUICKIE: Marble will look to maintain their hot non-district start into 25-4A play next season. Gray may easily be the area's top receiver in 2013. But if you ask most opponents, the scariest weapon for the Mustangs is Keith Jerome. Formerly from the Louisiana area, the returning back has a full grasp of what Coach Todd Dodge needs from him.
ATH Billy Ray McCrary ('15)
RAIDER QUICKIE: Don't be fooled by this short list. Rouse had a ton of senior leadership, but there's talent waiting in the wings. Not listed above is offensive lineman Will Noble. The CPL Statesman and LISD AD Chris Ross both agree: Noble is destined. But Billy McCrary is the only returning Raider of the coach's official all-district list. We could see a position change for BM III in 2013.
DB - Tristan Prukop ('14)
DL - Gunner Linhart ('14)
VIPER QUICKIE: Prukop Family greatness continues with Vandegrift Football, as we expect a D-MVP caliber type season from Tristan in 2013. Nearly notching 100 tackles in his first full Varsity season, he serves as Vandy's last line of defense. Things will start up front with the tenacious Linhart. His intangibles and passion make him a handful for the best OL's in Texas.
RB - Stedman Mayberry ('14)
TE - Blake Gossett ('14)
DL - Micah Thomas ('14)
LB - Eddie Brock ('14)
DB - DaQuan Patton ('15)
DB - Kevin Harris ('15)
DB - Alex Quintero ('15)
RANGERS QUICKIE: If you look at what Vista brings back on the defensive side of the ball - there is no question they can compete to win 25-4A outright. This is a hard-hitting group of talent, that will force offenses to get creative. Some say a true #1 RB is half of what you need to win a state title. Mayberry fits that description perfectly.

Remember Tetris? Move one block down, turn another block on its side and shift it over to the right. The game gives you a certain amount of space, and it's your job to make all the pieces fit. And while space planning and Tetris aren't exactly the same, they're really not that far apart. "It's like a big, big puzzle," says Barbara Truemper, IIDA, IFMA, principal at InterSpace Interior Design and Space Planning, Cedar Rapids, IA.
So whether you're managing a space planning project or doing the hands-on work yourself, here are five basic steps to get you started.
Evaluate the Current Situation
Don't just haphazardly move furniture around and wait to see what happens. Talk to employees and tenants using the space to find out what they like about their current environment. What's working right; what isn't? Are there problems that need to be addressed? "Make sure you capture all of the support space requirements, too: storage, shipping/receiving, coatrooms, libraries, and computer rooms," emphasizes Truemper. Measure the current performance of processes and task implementation – a more updated space plan could improve routines. Create a workflow map to identify possible breakdown, redundancy, and enhancement opportunities. Now is an ideal time to conduct assessments with staff members to gather opinions and observations. Which improvements are important to them; what do they value most about their current workspace? Take down any complaints or any ideas for space development. "The more functional a space is and the better it supports a person's activities, the more productive that person can be," explains Truemper. Ask tenants and employees the following questions:
Discuss and Agree on Goals for the New Space Plan
Why are you making these changes in the first place? Incorporate employee and tenant input as you list your goals for this venture. Tackle the issues and arrangements that were identified as "not working" during the assessment stage and see if there's a way to improve. Do you have specific goals to address with this new space plan, such as improving financial performance, shortening a certain processing cycle, or reducing communication gaps? Create and list these company goals to use as a reference tool.
Consider These Points During Programming
Most importantly, make sure you understand what the space is being used for. Planning work areas for engineers who use computers and drafting tables is much different than planning for telemarketers who are constantly on the phone. Once you have a grasp on the tasks being carried out in the space, review company values and views on the workplace environment. Where do the company's preferences lie? These values will make a difference when trying to reach conclusions regarding best use of the space:
As the trend swings back and forth between private offices and open plans, "It always comes back to the same thing," says Truemper. "You have to look at what people do in order to provide the right space. Somebody even in the lower ranks of the company may need a lot of privacy because of what they do. It would be better to put them in a private office, whereas an executive might be easily accommodated in a cubicle; often times, they are traveling or in meetings. If they need to have a private conversation, they can go to a conference room. That's why the needs assessment and what [people] need to support their work is really so important. It makes all the difference in the world for the effectiveness of the business."
Begin the Design and Implementation
Once you've evaluated current situations, listed objectives for the new space plan, and considered what the workspace is used for, it's time to establish a plan and carry it out. Remember these guidelines:
Monitor and Conduct a Post-occupancy Evaluation
You're done ... right? Wrong! After tenants have had a chance to experience and adapt to their new work environment (about three months later), make sure you follow up with them. Conduct face-to-face evaluations, pass out a questionnaire – just make sure to revisit the initial goals and objectives of the project. Has productivity improved as planned? Are occupants complaining? Get their take on the situation – noise, number of available electrical outlets, storage capacity, comfort level of the office chairs, lighting – and find out how their new setting affects projects, creativity, information exchange, and employee interaction. If things are working well, you may decide to keep the information in written form. "[This] helps to draft private office or workstation standards and helps a company do space planning in a more efficient way down the road," says Truemper. You may also want to generate a binder cataloging choices on furniture, color samples, and finishes that are working best.
From needs assessment through design development, she emphasizes that whether you're dealing with a school, a hospital, a bank, or a corporate office building, the rules of space planning "seem to be very similar no matter what. You have to find out what kind of furniture, equipment, and storage people need in order to do their particular work and how they need to group together in order to get that work done."
But if you still don't know where or how to start, Truemper suggests contacting a professional: "They can probably give you some advice, help you to ask the right questions – even in just a one-hour session – to say, 'Maybe these are some of the things you should look at.'
"It's not terribly difficult," says Truemper, "but it is time-consuming for somebody whose job normally does not include space planning. I think unless you've done it a number of times, especially on larger projects, you have to have a good mind for puzzles. You save yourself a lot of headaches if you have somebody to help you with the details.
"Even in a down economy when you don't want to spend money, or you need to reinvest your money into your business and don't want to spend it on a new office layout: If you can take a clear look at the workings of each department and how people work together, then sometimes there is a way – with minimal cost – to improve on the workflow and communication and to position people to increase productivity and impact the bottom line. It doesn't always have to cost a lot of money."
Use these steps for future projects, and you're sure to become a space planning champion. Game over!

Steven L. Shreve died suddenly at age 55 on March 1, 2013.
Steve was born in Monticello Utah, on Sept. 23, 1957 to Jean Brownell and Ben Shreve but was raised by Bill Ayers who he always called "POPS", he is survived by his wife Vickie Shreve of Ferron, his sister Theresa Bonanno (Frank) Olathe, KS, Roxanne Green (Von) Prescott Valley, Ariz, Pam Winters (Russ) Prescott Valley, Ariz, and Ruby Hall, Phoenix, Ariz; his children Andrea Washburn Salt Lake City, Utah, Tom Sawyer (Shantel) Vernal, Utah, Nicole Shreve Phoenix, Ariz; Janine (Stephen) Smith Salt Lake City, Utah and Desiree Villescas (Dave), Heber, Utah; Grandchildren: Austin, Clay, Sierra, and Serena Sawyer, Logan Ellington, Junior Greer, and Sophilla Villescas and Lillian Smith. Preceded in death by his mother Jean Ayers, father Bill Ayers, brothers Bobbie and David Montanye, grandson Gabriel Villescas.
Steve married Vickie Sawyer on March 21, 1987 in Clawson, Utah. Steve always said that they went together like "Peas and Carrots"
He was devoted to his family. He was a wonderful end of life caretaker for several of the people in his life. He and Vickie provided loving care for her father and his step-father during their last years.
He was well known in the Ferron area and beyond as someone that could be counted on in times of need, crisis, illness, or if you wanted to have a good time. Steve's love of nature and the underdog were reflected in the numerous strays that he brought home, both domesticated (and in the case of a skunk) otherwise. He was known to extend his wings around those in need, and help guide them. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, NASCAR, going out on the desert, and working on projects around the house. He had a green thumb and spent many hours tinkering in the yard.
Steve was a tireless employee devoting himself wholeheartedly to any project to which he was assigned. He worked in the coal industry for 23 years, currently worked for Caterpillar out of Huntington, Utah. Anyone working with him knew that they could count on his expertise and professionalism to get the job done. It was this hard-working attitude that earned him the respect of his peers and family.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to: Steven Shreve Memorial Fund at the Wells Fargo Bank in Castle Dale. All donations will be given to the Castle Dale Food bank, to continue Steve's tradition of helping those around him.
A memorial service will be held at the San Rafael Museum on Saturday March 9 at 11 a.m. arrangements are in the care of Fausett Mortuary. Family and friends may sign the guest book and share memories of Steve at www.fausettmortuary.com
Dress: Jeans and Boots preferred.

SWTOR is to MMORPGs what SPORE was to strategy games. A terrible game with a gimmick that manages to miraculously score 85% everywhere even though the vast majority of players find its shallowness and lack of actual content disgusting.
What's terrible is when people in the minority think they're in the "vast majority".
Im enjoying the game beyond my expectations. I knew I was going to enjoy the storyside, because I like most Bioware games. I also knew that I had to limit my expectations in terms of freedom in the game. Bioware games are usually quite lineair for rpg's.
But what I didnt expect is that this game got rid of some of my (WoW and LOTRO) petpeeves. A few examples are:
- Being able to sell in most combat areas, so you dont have to trod back just to clear your inventory. Or just send your companion to sell for you.
- No nodehunting if I dont feel like it ! I simply send my companions to do this.
- Nice questing flow in terms of placement (you always somehow stumble on them). I know that this is also because its so lineair. But this was already expected by me. The lack of having to travel back loads of time over the same road then really helps.
- The bonus missions are a nice way to deal with the typical kill x mobs. The way they automatically start when you first enter the area helps with my questing flow.
There are more of these tiny things that this game doesnt annoy me with like in some other mainstream MMO's.
The things I dont like :
- User Interface. Big and clunky! I hate it that chat is the top left corner! wtf! With all the quickslot bars and the rest of the interface, its almost as if Im peering through an anorak hood all the time. Kenny anyone?
- Republic fleet. A stupid large circle as main hub. Somehow they managed to make sure that players never hang around longer then they have to. This will never become a popular hub to hang out.
- Space missions. I tried to like this. But everytime when I want to go into a direction that I think is strategically better, I get pulled into a different direction. Rail space ftl! It makes me feel as if Im playing on an arcade machine on board of my ship.
I can think of 51 more weaknesses....becouse critisizing is the easiest thing to do, I'll specialise in that.
Dear Coyote-
Please do an articl;e on people who color their text to make their comments stand out.
Skips all colored font on MMORPG.com
So the guy that hates everything likes TOR? Your minions must be reeling lol
I sit on a man's back, choking him and making him carry me, and yet assure myself and others that I am very sorry for him and wish to ease his lot by all possible means - except by getting off his back.

Can you skip at least one TOR thread? Never seen such dedication.
I am really getting tired of this dude with a hidden agenda going on Themepark mmos talking about Sandbox. Newsflash big buy no one in here gives a flying crap about Sandbox and the mayority of the MMO market doesn't either, why do you think no one is making any big budget sandbox mmo's? BECAUSE NO ONE GIVES A CRAP!!
My two cents.
I give a crap about sandboxxes. I'm pretty sure a lot of other people do too. Maybe you should qualify your statement by saying something like 'People with IQ's under 100 probably don't give a crap about sandboxxes'. You know qualify your opinion with some other statistic that reflects the same proportion of the population.
Here's another example: people with APMs under 40 (also people who have no idea what an APM is) probably don't give a crap about sandboxxes.
Then your argument starts to make some semblance of sense. . .
My two cents . . .
Never trust a review that has the words 'an honest review' attached.
I mean that honestly.

Exactly the right tone to take for a review. You could tell Yahtzee even sort of liked SWTOR, (more than most MMORPG's) but still he made sure to keep it funny and mocking throughout.
Coyote's sort of a Yahtzee clone as I see it. With less accent.

I call BS. List 50 more. I bet you can name less then 5, any more would all be stupid varients of previous ones and not true weaknesses in themselves. The game is fun and imersive in a way no other is at this time. It's not perfect and has alot I would change but for what we have available to us it cannot be beat.

Yes.. but it is honest ... and this means ... ahem exactly what?
Wow, a Coyote write-up that I actually fully agree with, AND enjoyed reading? Didn't think that'd ever happen. I fully agree on every single point listed in this review. The space combat is just awful in TOR. I'd love to see a JtL styled expansion.
As for the scale, I think it's a good size, to really express how big the planet is supposed to feel. But, I also feel that speeders need to have their speed about doubled. I paid for a speeder and training at lvl 25 for a SPEEDer that doesn't even double my movement speed? And at 40, I wiped my bank account out and down to like 3k credits for more speeder training and a new speeder, so 265k credits, for a 10% speed upgrade? And at 50, that's like another 400k credits minimum (unless you are a cybertech) for another whole 10% speed upgrade?
And the market UI. I LOATHE YOU! But seriously, it's so horrendous, and poorly thought out, and you can't even search by individual slots, let alone stats or anything like that. And the one that bothers me the most, is the RESET button is right below the search. User error, but I can't tell you how many times I've set up all my filters on a search, only to hit the bottom of the Search button, only to have it register as the reset button. The UI in general is pretty piss-poorly done. Can't hide empty slots, can't move bars around. Only things you can move are the chat window, and the group/raid UI location. In a AAA MMO, seems kinda lazy. Fortunately, they are working on adding in UI customization in an upcoming patch, but no ETA on that particular feature.
The hell's wrong with you, Coyote? Didn't you get the memo? You're not allowed to like SWTOR. You're not allowed to find it fun. If you don't write a piece that totally reams it, you're a biased, favortistic pawn of the system!
You don't get to sleep with the bear, no matter how fuzzy, warm and adorable he is. YOU HAVE TO HURT IT with a large object or pour gasoline and set it on fire!
In before: He was just giving his honest opinion. He should know by now, we, the readers, only want his opinion if we agree with it!!!
Aaawww, c'mon Coyote, I don't read your columns because I want "honest" game reviews, I read them because I want to LAUGH !
It's your duty to poke fun at things, make ridiculous claims and heap on the hyperbole. I would have expected you to list the space combat as the most awesome feature of TOR, for instance.
Not your best effort, Coyote
Seriously, all greatness or flaws aside, the amount of time I stare at a load screen is stupid.

This MMO like every other MMO is not for everyone, just because you enjoy it does not mean everyone is going to think it is enjoyable or "worth the cash".
Personally about the only thing I enjoyed about playing SWTOR was the fact that it was Star Wars.

Totally agree. The worst is when you load for 30 seconds, then run through a shuttle bay for 20 seconds, then load on the planet for another 30 seconds.
I sit on a man's back, choking him and making him carry me, and yet assure myself and others that I am very sorry for him and wish to ease his lot by all possible means - except by getting off his back.

Or you buy an SSD and get all warm and tingly inside everytime anybody complains about loading screens.
I enjoy my smug satisfaction whenever I hear the peasants whining about loading screens taking forever.

Had to return them
"Unfortunately these shoes were horrible to walk in. Even though they were pinching my toes, the back was sliding up and down at every step. I'm sure keeping them would have resulted in a bad fall at some point this winter. I wear heels most days to work so it's not like i'm a novice. They were hitting all the bad pressure points. Luckily returns are fast and easy at DSW."

I wanted to love them
"I wanted to love them; I loved them from the time I saw them online, until I tried to put them on. That was when the love stopped. These shoes run just a smidgen short, it was just enough that my toes were cramped and walking was not comfortable. I don't believe going up a half size would have worked, I think the shoes would have been to loose and sloppy.Sadly to say I will be returning these."

The world's biggest sovereign-wealth fund tells the Wall Street Journal it's considering increasing its exposure to the stock market.
From Kjetil Malkenes Hovland's story on Norway's $840 billion sovereign-wealth fund:
Traditionally, the fund's stakes didn't get larger than 1% or 2%, but that is changing.
"We have more concentrated portfolios for each portfolio manager," [fund chief Yngve] Slyngstad said. "Today, a portfolio manager owns fewer companies, but with bigger stakes than previously."
At the end of 2013, the fund held more than 5% in 45 companies, up from 34 the prior year. Mr. Slyngstad said the number of companies where it holds at least 5% stake could increase to 90.
Although the fund's mandate bars it from holding more than 10% in a single company, its holdings span a variety of sectors in several markets. By ramping up ownership in more companies, its influence is poised to grow.

Meh . . . Ok
"I've been looking to replace my comfy but beat up old "commuter shoes" These looked to fit the bill. I normally like Lifestride but this Devlin is quite short and narrow. I half-sized up and my toes still hit the end and it's snug on my avg width foot. The criss-cross straps are soft and don't dig into my high instep. I'm going try to exchange them at the store because they are cute."

PayPal thinks so, which is why it's working with SETI.
As humankind in greater numbers breaks the chain of earthly gravity, colonizes the moon and Mars, and eventually makes it way to distant solar systems, society will unshackle itself from the economic tyranny that is money. Such is the vision offered by "Star Trek" and other science fiction works.
To which PayPal said this week: Fat chance of that happening anytime soon.
The eBay Inc.-owned payment service this week announced the launch of PayPal Galactic, an effort designed to "prepare and support the future of space commerce." Working with the SETI Institute, the privately funded research group known for its efforts to discover extraterrestrial intelligence, PayPal is looking ahead to when humans will need a monetary system in space.
If this seems no more than a branding ploy or some far-fetched fun, consider that this move comes as private investors and companies—including Virgin Galactic (part of Richard Bronson's Virgin Group) and Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (founded by Elon Musk, one of the early drivers behind PayPal)—are building and testing technology designed to put private citizens in space.
"As space tourism programs are opening space travel, this drives questions about the commercialization of space," says David Marcus, PayPal president. "We are launching PayPal Galactic, in conjunction with leaders in the scientific community, to increase public awareness of the important questions that need to be addressed. PayPal has already pushed payments into the Internet, onto phones and across terrestrial borders. We look forward to pushing payments from our world to the next, and beyond."
The partnership with PayPal stems from SETI's work in "addressing questions for which there are no known answers," a spokeswoman for SETI tells Internet Retailer. "Silicon Valley is filled with critical and creative thinkers, and a lot of them come to our doors," she says, noting that Microsoft Corp. co-founder Paul Allen helped to fund the Allen Telescope Array, a radio telescope research venture involving SETI. (Allen also has invested in a private suborbital commercial spacecraft.)
The relationship between PayPal and SETI involves no financial deals, a PayPal spokesman says. "PayPal has not made any donation to SETI, nor has SETI put out any requests for proposals for payment systems or anything like that," he says. "This was strictly a PayPal initiative and SETI was a natural partner."
As part of this program, PayPal has launched a "crowdfunding campaign" for the Curiosity Movement, a SETI program that focuses on science and education projects. Today, after 38 hours, the program had gained about $38,000 in donations, according to the SETI web site.
Buzz Aldrin, the second man on the moon, gave his blessing to PayPal Galactic. "Trips to Mars, the moon, even orbit will require we provide astronauts and astro-tourists with as many comforts from home as possible, including how to pay each other," he said. "Whether it's paying a bill, even helping a family member on Earth, we'll need access to money. I think humans will reach Mars, and I would like to see it happen in my lifetime."

10-11 Season Autopsy: Goaltending
April 14 2011 09:34AM
On January 1st 2011 the James Reimer era began with a bang. Outshot 21-33 the rookie allowed a single goal to let Toronto skate with a 5-1 win against the lottery bound Senators. After that he started 36 more times accruing 3 shutouts and a .921 save percentage.
The Leafs grabbed 45 points in Reimer's 37 starts which stretched to 82 games would have given them 100 points. Unfortunately for Toronto when Reimer wasn't playing they relied on the services of Jonas Gustavsson and J.S. Giguere.
Brought in as a UFA the Swedish netminder Gustavsson showed flashes of promise in his rookie campaign. He makes spectacular acrobatic saves but seems unable to fight through traffic in front of the net and his reactions to shots seems off. It's possible that he still hasn't adjusted to the speed of the NHL game but he posted an .890 save percentage across 23 starts and won only six of those. Credit to the Leafs on Gustavsson; they shut him down after the January 19th game against the Rangers that saw him allow six goals on 25 shots.
It's unclear what Gustavsson's been doing, he impressed with short duty in the AHL to the tune of a .960SV% but hasn't played since, is he practicing with Allaire?
I was a big fan of Giguere's work before arriving in Toronto but he's been injury prone and hasn't delivered. What really makes me angry is this quote AM640's Jonas Siegel got:
"Every time I got hurt it was minor groin pull, minor this, minor that," said Giguere. "We always made the decision to keep going and try to keep pushing knowing that I would have to get it done by the end of the year."
This is the same thing we saw from Vesa Toskala; plagued by nagging injuries and rather than get the player healthy and fixed the Leafs continued to run out an injured goaltender and watch him get shelled. By the end of the season Giguere had almost no ability to move laterally in the net and opposing teams picked him apart as he tried to cheat on angles.
No doubt Giguere is better than Toskala in an absolute sense; he stops more pucks, is a better teammate (allegedly) and Reimer and Gustavsson seem to think he's a good influence but this is an issue that's persisted with the Leafs front office. Old goaltenders with hip and groin injuries can't just shake them off and play effectively.
Burke has announced that next season will likely see James Reimer start with Jonas Gustavsson given the backup job. If James Reimer falters can this Leafs team win with Jonas Gustavsson in net? My fear is that for the third season in a row we won't have a real backup plan in net and that's a huge problem for a Leafs team that started giving up a lot of shots once Francois Beauchemin and Tomas Kaberle were moved.
The 2010-2011 Leafs will miss the playoffs because they got 56 games of .895 goaltending. Pray that we're not writing this same thing for the sixth time next year.
I think you are being too hard on Gustavsson to be honest.
If you look at his year last year, the majority of his starts he was getting little scoring support, and was continuously keeping the team in the game for the first while.
In fact in his first 12 appearances he posted a 0.9145 save percentage, 310 saves out of 339 shots (November 30th Inclusive).
In those games the Leafs scored a total of 26 goals and were shut out three times.
In Reimer's first 12 appearances he did post a much better save percentage, 0.9295, 343 out of 369 shots (February 10th Inclusive).
In those games however the Leafs also scored a total of 37 goals and were only shut out once.
In a position where confidence is a key contributor to effectiveness, Gustavsson was hung out to dry on many occasions. While he did battle in the beginning, I'm sure a point was reached where his confidence was simply shaken so badly that things just progressively had gotten worse.
In retrospect, while Wilson's plan to flip flop goaltenders early in the season may have been considered "nice" and "convenient" for the goaltenders. Not being rewarded for positive play, or getting consistent effort from the team certainly proved it to make a bad situation far worse.
I think given a good off season and strong training camp we will see Gustavsson do just fine next season.

Bill Gates Says "No" to Second Coming, Ballmer Discusses "New Era" for Microsoft
Jason Mick
October 10, 2012 12:54 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Meanwhile Ballmer looks to pump shareholders up with a letter emphasizing Microsoft's success
When a more mature Steve Jobs came back to Apple, Inc. (
), he
revitalized the company he co-founded
as a rebellious youth. Millions of iPods, iPhones, and iPhones later, Apple is the
world's most valuable company
in terms of market cap. Meanwhile, Apple's perennial rival Microsoft Corp. (
) is struggle not for want of user, but for a
faltering brand image
. Some say that Bill Gates -- the man who founded Microsoft and drove it to its initial success -- should return.
I. Bill Gates: No Comeback for me
But at his keynote at the
Abu Dhabi Media Summit 2012
-- a leadership conference -- Bill Gates all but ruled out a return, saying his focus was on
his philanthropic work
, and it would remain that way. He
Steve Jobs did a phenomenal piece of work. Apple, most people would have expected, were on their way going out of business. He had run Apple since it was a tiny company and then he came back in and made incredibly valuable. It's a phenomenal business story and I thought Walter Isaacson did a good job catching that in the book. Steve and I were friends, competitors – we were a lot of different things. It was amazing what he did.
I'm now committed full time to my foundation work and I give about 15% of my time as Chairman of Microsoft. Microsoft is moving ahead with Windows 8 that combines the best of tablet with PC. This month the very first hardware based on that idea including Microsoft's own Surface will ship. So there's a lot of exciting stuff ahead in software and I didn't retire from Microsoft because I thought things were getting boring. In fact a lot of best ideas- the vision of artificial intelligence and robots are still ahead but i did decide the philanthropic world was where my contribution would be more unique and so thats what I'll work on full time for the rest of my life.
Bill Gates says "no" to a Microsoft comeback. [Image Source: Flickr/Bill Gates]
Some people will be disappointed that Mr. Gates is resisting a comeback.
II. Steve Ballmer: Microsoft is Strong
But Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer is convinced no comeback is necessary. He insists that the image that Microsoft lacks creativity is badly out of date. In
a letter to shareholders
, he brags that 1.3 billion people worldwide use Windows and that there are 8 million active Windows app developers.
The boisterous chief executive is bullish on
Windows 8 tablets
Windows Phone 8
, bringing a unified Windows experience across mobile and traditional computing devices.
Microsoft has
, particularly when it
comes to Windows 8
. But as Mr. Ballmer puts it:
For fiscal year 2012, revenue grew to a record $73.7 billion. We also maintained strong cost discipline resulting in cash flow from operations of $31.6 billion, an increase of 17 percent from the prior year. In addition, we returned $10.7 billion to shareholders through stock buybacks and dividends.
In other words financially Microsoft shows little sign of being a "dying" brand as some opinion pieces have claims.
Windows 8 is a huge risk. But Steve Ballmer is convinced it will pay off, even as Bill Gates watches -- permanently -- from the sidelines.
"We're Apple. We don't wear suits. We don't even own suits." -- Apple CEO Steve Jobs

super cute! just not comfy
"This pump is super cute and I would have loved to have kept it, but it was just so uncomfortable. I have yet to find a comfortable pointed pump though. I got my regular size 7 and my toes were so squished. Adorable shoe if you can handle the pain."

Personal Seal
From Thomas Jefferson Encyclopedia
Pictured to the right is "one of Jefferson's seals,"[1] according to his grandson-in-law Nicholas Philip Trist, bearing the motto, "Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God." Jefferson's Memorandum Books contain the notation, "Pd. Thomson for a seal £3-7" on 26 March 1786; this may refer to the purchase of this seal.[2] The first known intact copy of the seal is on a letter to Richard Gem of 4 April 1790;[3] the seal appears on the frontispiece of Henry Randall's Life of Thomas Jefferson, and can also be seen on one of the gates to the Monticello Graveyard.
"Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God" was a motto suggested for the Great Seal of the United States, but never used. Jefferson eventually appropriated it for this seal. The ultimate source of the motto is murky, but the best guess of scholars at this point is that Benjamin Franklin probably made it up.

The Evolve Rx Vibra Grub is unlike any soft bait on the market today. Many have tried to mimic its action ... to no avail. It was engineered to flutter, undulate, and give the illusion that it is in fact propelling itself through underwater environments - an action that makes this lure look impossibly alive. As long as water flows across the front of the VibraGrub, it will do things no lure has ever done. It can be fished using a number of tournament proven methods: on a skirtless jig head, a weighted swimbait hook, as a jig trailer, or on a dropshot rig among others. Two US patents speak to the unique effectiveness of this bait, and largemouth, smallmouth, and other game fish across the world are starting to understand the genius of the Evolve Rx Vibra Grub.
Based on bass and other predators' habits when deciding to attack or ignore an artificial bait, Evolve's Rx highly technical soft baits were born. Fish them, and know they will produce.

Customer Reviews
Comments: Good simple trailer for cold water bass
From: Charles: Shelbyville 1/24/17
Comments: These baits are tough but have very little action. Maybe I should boil them in water to make them softer? Stroking them off the bottom with a heavy jig head is the only way I can make them come alive. I like the concept. If they were softer and offered in a magnum size, I would probably fish with this plastic bait again.
From: Darrell: Moncks Corner, South Carolina 12/1/16
Comments: The 4" grubs are great when used in combination with a swinging jig / football head; (with or without a skirt). Boy the nervousness of this bottom bouncing duo, produces fish after fish. Durable, and the 3" green pumpkin fishes well on the back of a finesse jig and surprisingly well as a "PUNCH" bait. More action than the " BB Cricket " style plastic creature baits on the market today. I will always have multiple packs of these in my duffle bag. Nothing like it anywhere! Simply said, " AWESOME " !!!
From: William: Thomaston, Georgia 12/14/16
Comments: Took this out today in Juvy Bass in 3inch. Thats all I used all day. 5 Black Crappie, 6 yellow perch, 2 rock bass, 1 pumpkinseed, and 1lg mouth. Great product. This thing catches fish!
From: Timmah: WA 8/17/16
Comments: Caught 18 bass on one single grub out of the pack. They hold up extremely well & the bait is deadly. Caught my PB on the green pumpkin 4". Weighed in at 5 pounds even
From: Zack: OH 6/11/16
Comments: I bought the vibra grubs and 1 of the lures came Mis-molded. I contact evolve & they were great & made it right. And the lures catch fish so I'm happy. Great company and would buy again.
From: Brandt: Muskogee, OK 3/28/16
Comments: Been using these all fall in rocky rivers and clear reservoirs. Put them on a jig head & fish them like a curl tail grub. Caught my PB smallmouth & walleye.
From: Phil: Great Lakes, NY 1/10/16
Comments: If your wondering why you don't get bit on the big ones is because they look like a leaf not a forage species of any kind
From: Yoda of Fishing: MN 12/19/15
Comments: Put these on a scrounger head or swim jig. done deal. Let these flutter down through schooling fish or along ledges and watch for the line to tick. I suggest some scent even though I think they are lightly scented. adds some confidence.
From: Tim: NY 1/2/15
Comments: Fished the smaller ones an crappie eat them up,but have had no luck with larger ones.Both have loads of action in the water,dont know why iam not getting hit on the larger ones,have tried as trailors, jigs,drop shot etc.no bites.but the smaller ones as soon as they hit the water crappie ,white fish, small strip eatem up.Will keep trying.
From: Johnny: USA
Comments: If you don't know how to fish this, here's how: PUT IT ON A SCROUNGER HEAD, or take the skirt off a bladed swim jig and insert this on. Crazy action--- looks like a baitfish that drank about 40 energy drinks. I consistently fish this bait, or a cane thumper behind my swim jigs/scroungers. Great for smallmouth and largemouth, and i've even caught several walleye up to 5 pounds.
From: Darren: OH
Comments: Used the 3" white shadow as a trailer for my spinner up at the Chippewa Flowage and tore those fish up! Was having a slow day until I decided to try this out. Great action but as I expected it got torn up quickly...still worth it.
From: Chris: IL
Comments: Sick punching bait. Need more punching colors. Everyone email them and tell them! Sprayed grass and black/blue flake NEEDED ASAP.
From: Caleb: SC, USA.
Comments: We put these on 3/8 - 1/2 oz. jig heads for the 4 inch and 1/4 oz. heads on the 3 inch and drop em thru suspended fish and along serious ledges. They flutter down through the fish and depending on the day, they will eat 'em like any other bait, or they will destroy them unlike anything else I ever used. It's a crapshoot, but I hardly ever have a day where at least one rod isn't setup with one. I seen the small version and am looking forward to trout season... I can see them doing a number on the trout.
From: Joe: TN
Comments: I ordered the black/red flake and white with red shimmer and both were super soft. Saw these in a mag I get. they were both great colors on walleye.
From: Alex: MN
Comments: good idea but needs softer plastic it was a little stiff and needed to reel fast to get to flutter would be an awsome bait if had softer plastic would buy by the dozens if they got improved
From: Seth: VA
Comments: Throw the Juvy Bass or White Shadow color on an A-rig... it looks amazing and the fish kill it.
From: Connor: FL
Comments: I can say for sure that this will replace all reapers that I've used to date. There is no point in using other reapers with this option, just in my opinion. I guess a standard reaper might dart a lil better but this thing has sick action and flutters and swims. More colors please. ASAP. Killing fish on these here in PA. Looking forward to running them on heavier jigs for walleyes, I'm pretty much expecting to kill 'em.
From: Mark: Pottstown, PA
Comments: Went to a local lake thatss always been good to me flipping craws but today i couldn't buy a fish to save my life on one so i switched to these which i had never thrown before and with in a half hour i was landing nice keeper fish all day, biggest was a 4.25lb Minnesota chunky bass. i used the green pumpkin 4 in and i'm excited to try the leech blood soon. I'm hooked on these baits!
From: Matt: MN
Comments: Ask them to keep this lure around for all time, its great bait, works great on fish. I used this and caught many different fish off these. Going to be great on my next trip. Its great bait when you used everything already in your box. Its different to catch rest of fish. God bless and good luck.
From: Alex
Comments: I just picked up a few of these local and they really are sweet. I took the advice of these reviews and fished them on a darter head and caught a pile of fish. I wish they made another baitfish color other then their juvybass, with more blue/herring type colors.
From: Chaz: MD
Comments: These are a great bait, especially when the bite is slow or the water is clear. Looks amazing in the water, and really seems to piss off the bass. They absolutely slam it and hold on forever. Have not missed a fish yet with these. No jinx! Buy them and use them, especially when nothing else is working. Official Big J seal of approval.
From: Big: J: Houston, TX
Comments: I too have been hoarding some of the originals. THE WAY to fish these is on a jig head or weighted Swimbait hook or darter jig. As long as the bait falls fast enough or you move it enough, it will do its thing and you'll get slammed. I think the company should really advertise this as a jig or jerk bait or Swimbait bait..it works really well on a drop shot and a spinnerbait trailer..but the other methods will out produce. My .02 cents!
From: Jimmy: TN
Comments: We used these in mexico, I Texas rigged it and maybe that was the wrong way to go but I couldn't get a bite. I did get slammed on the finesse worm texas rigged I wish the plastic was a little harder but I went through three bags in one day of fishing!
From: Dan: Hereford, AZ
Comments: I have been throwing these on a tiny ball head jig and 8 lb test. Doing really, really well on largemouth and smallies. Im actually excited for summer to come because I know these are going to clean up dropshotting.
From: Bart: USA
Comments: this exact bait has been around for many many years.i was buying them in he 90's.they were made or called the vibra fin. i have been hoarding them since thay quit making them.i am glad to see the back under a new brand!!!!
From: Scott: Zimmerman, MN
Comments: If you haven't tried these, try them. The little fins/appendages/sides flutter and motor along as you jig/swim the bait. It looks unlike any lure I've seen. I've been fishing them on a jig for smallmouth and largemouth in TN. Wish they made an alewife/shiner color with some blues/yellows... for now, juvy bass will do.
From: Joe: TN
Comments: absolutely crushed them on a 3 and 4 inch white shadow nose hooked on a jackall weedless wacky jig head. Pitched into and near brush piles and adjacent to spawning flats and swimming with tiny twitches...8 lb. test. Can pretty much guarantee you'll kill clear water fish. My new go-to setup, prolly shoulda kept it quiet.
From: Jay: PA
Comments: awesome bait. I got a few of the watermelon and white shadow, the white shadows are SUPER soft... so they were writhing and squirming like mad. Dropshotting 3''. Killer.
From: Zach: NC
Comments: Yaaa good to have these back. Evolve uses softer plastic and looks like they tweaked the mold a bit. Better then ever. Pitch these things into heavy cover and let 'em fall... watch for the line tick... it'll happen. Watching these things in the water on a swimbait hook is sexyyy as all getup.
From: Ben: Mass
Comments: These were called wingman few years ago, Its great bait folks, they are out for reason. Get some and fish them in your local area. Might catch fish you need on your next trip folks. God bless and good fishing forever!
From: Alex
Comments: Agree with the previous comment: Reaper on Steroids. I have yet to see a bait with a more live action. I caught the heck out of smallies around the PA/DEL borders, and largemouth all over the northeast... been using them before they were officially introduced.
From: Habes: Philadelphia
Comments: Reaper on STEROIDS. These things have such a cool movement, the sides wiggle and writhe. These baits flutter and swim like something alive. Crush smallmouth here PA and NY.
From: D-Rok: NY/PA

I am installing a bathroom in the basement using a powerflush unit that has a 3 inch opening for a vent. There are not any existing vents to connect to. I am considering running a new vent line and going thru the roof of the house above a linen closet. In order to get to the linen closet I need to run the vent line 15 ft. horizontally , then put a 90 on and run it another 12 ft. horizontally and then put a 90 on and go vertical up thru the roof. The total lenght would consist of 7ft vert, then 27 ft horizontal then 16 ft vertical where it goes thru the roof. My question: Can I run this vent and have part of it horizontal ? and if so what size must it be? (There will be a toilet, sink, and bathtub in this bathroom) Thank You!

It's pretty much downpouring around my parts right now, but I'm still hopeful: Soon, I will be partying in backyards and on rooftops, veggie burger and Corona in hand. Grilling in the spring is just about one of the most enjoyable activities I can think of, but when it comes to vegetarian options, there tend to be few, and they tend to be, well… not very good. Frozen vegetarian patties tend to be full of soy proteins that a) are shady, for the same reason that soy protein powder isn't our favorite smoothie ingredient, and b) don't actually taste very good. We prefer the homemade variety, of which there are many: Lentil, chickpea, bulgur, tofu… There are endless ways to build, spice, and grill a good veggie burger, so don't sell yourself short with a plate of potato salad and chips at your next barbecue this spring.
Check out these ten veggie burger recipes; some are vegan, all are vegetarian, and none will make Meatless Monday a boring affair:

Capstone Investigates Fermentation
by gwilson on Apr.24, 2012, under Uncategorized
Senior BIMS major Luke Burcham has a fascination with fermentation. As an amateur brewmaster, his interest in the physiology of yeast fermentation has resulted in his choice for "life after McMurry". He will be entering a graduate program at UC-Davis in January to study all things related to fermentation and brewing. From Borger TX to Davis CA is quite a move, but Luke is ready for the adventure.
With that in mind, Luke worked with Dr. Tom Benoit this semester to design a project that would give him a head-start on his graduate studies. After Luke reviewed some literature on the subject, he began to envision a project to investigate the impact of modifying the ion content of the growth medium for beer production to determine the best formulation. The experimental design began with a question on how calcium levels in the water used for the process might influence the physiology of the yeast in the batch. Could it be that increasing calcium ion content altered the growth characteristics of the yeast and alcohol content of the product? Would hard water result in a fundamentally different product than that produced in soft or distilled water?
Notes from research meetings and designs for experiments decorate the white board in the senior research lab (shown above). The final design Dr. Benoit and Luke settled on centered on using production of cell clumps and measurement of alcohol content as ways of monitoring physiological differences between batches. As yeast grow in a broth culture, they can form clumps of cells that fall out of suspension as nutrients are exhausted and the growth period comes to a close. This flocculation of yeast cells and cell debris is a necessary step to move from the cloudy active culture to a clear final (and commercially appealing) product. Could calcium concentration alter the dynamics of growth and flocculation?
After completing a variety of experiments this spring, the answer seems to be "yes". Luke tells me that batches made with distilled/RO water averaged clumps of 17 cells (as measured microscopically using a hemacytometer), while batches made with added calcium chloride averaged clumps of 55 cells. In addition to having larger clumps, calcium enriched batches also produced less alcohol (as measured using a hydrometer). Luke is currently in the analysis process – explaining why clumps are larger and why larger clumps mean less alcohol produced – as he takes these findings and turns them into the final project poster for his capstone experience.
Luke's project is a great example of the flexibility we provide our students to pursue senior projects in line with their interests and future plans. Luke's future seems destined to be quite different from the one envisioned when he began his college life as a Biomedical Science major intent on dental school. However, the knowledge and skills and abilities gained in the BIMS program have application to his future and have equipped him well to succeed in his graduate work at UC-Davis.

A couple of funny things this chapter. Nazomi pimp smaking Kon twice was hilarious. I thought the fact that the main villian stumbled and fell down a hill was quite amusing as well. I was a little upset that at one point during the EP Captain Yama is laying face first in the dirt.
