Black Panther: the revolutionary art of Emory Douglas
Rizzoli, 6 févr. 2007 - 223 pages
The Black Panther Party for Self Defense, formed in the aftermath of the assassination of Malcolm X in 1965, remains one of the most controversial movements of the 20th-century. Founded by the charismatic Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale, the party sounded a defiant cry for an end to the institutionalized subjugation of African Americans. The Black Panther newspaper was founded to articulate the party's message and artist Emory Douglas became the paper's art director and later the party's Minister of Culture. Douglas's artistic talents and experience proved a powerful combination: his striking collages of photographs and his own drawings combined to create some of the era's most iconic images, like that of Newton with his signature beret and large gun set against a background of a blood-red star, which could be found blanketing neighborhoods during the 12 years the paper existed. This landmark book brings together a remarkable lineup of party insiders who detail the crafting of the party's visual identity.

Cute Boots, but Cheaply Made....
"I ordered these online and when they arrived I couldn't wait to wear them....but to my surprise, they were obviously already worn (dirt stains and scuff marks). So I took them to my nearest store and exchanged them for the same exact size. They fit good, but I should've tried them on and walked around the store in them for awhile. When they were laced all the way up, they had the tendency of making squeeky noises. I had to undo the top 3 holes and then they seem to not make any noises. There was also thread popping out all over the boots....it should've been sewn way better than that! I know they are not leather, but for the price I expected better. They best thing I liked about these boots, was that they make your feet look super small."

Comfortable and still get the height-!
"These shoes look like REAL leather....and are glove soft like REAL leather...don't need to "break them in" and won't leave blisters on your feet. Absolutely THE MOST COMFORTABLE casual shoe with "some height" you'll ever own....!! Highly recommend.You'll need nice (narrow) ankles for added comfort and support.Otherwise, IF they had anymore in my size (or even another color) I'd order ANOTHER pair!!!! LOVE them-!!"

So unfortunate these shoes had a defect!
"I bought these shoes in a rush because I had no shoes to wear to a concert. I didn't even try them on or nothing, just grabbed my size and took off. When i finally changed, I noted that the stitching on the front of the shoe was coming off! :( I had nothing else to wear so I used them anyhow but I was able to return them the next day at DSW. They didn't give me a hard time because when the clerk went to check if they had another 7 1/2 for my exchange, he realized that ALL of the other shoes had the same manufacturer defect. :( That's too bad because the shoes where super cute and comfy! :( I just bought some similar ones and hope they fit as good as these ones. Besides the stitching defect they were great. Super comfortable and cute!"

Beautiful flats
"I usually run between 7.5 and 8 but these were quite a tight fit in the beginning. I would suggest using those sock like things so it doesnt bite! The shoes otherwise are gorgeous. Be careful when you wear it cos the shiny part can get scratches eventually."

What 80's child star has to have a hit of ecstasy before he has sex with any of his hooker harem or else he just can't perform?
Corey Haim most defReplyCancel
oops i mean Feldman as well.. derrrReplyCancel
I think Orlando Bloom has been looking very Cory Feldmanish lately. especially hereReplyCancel
Corey Feldman #1 with an outside chance with Leif Garrett.ReplyCancel
Leif was more of a 70's star I think…..I say CoreyReplyCancel
He tried in his book. His lawyers shut him downReplyCancel
Wait which Corey is dead?ReplyCancel
feldman was "allegedly" molested by charlie sheen when he was a kid on the set of Rudy or whatever that movie was they did together, he told the producers but was "talked out of making a formal complaint"ReplyCancel
All of them. They're flippin dinosaurs by now (sexwise anyway).ReplyCancel
yes.. lucas.. but feldman was in that movie too and he molested feldmanReplyCancel
I actually read "Coreyography" (it's pretty juicy read), and it's not really hard to figure out who did what to him and the other Corey with a little research and the timelines involved. What's kind of scary is he is telling the same types of stories as those guys who were just involved in the lawsuits with Singer and friends. Young guys being given booze and drugs then diddled by older guys who made them think it was the thing to do in Hollywood. I don't remember the Charlie Sheen/sex part, but I do remember something about Corey and Sheen doing drugs together.ReplyCancel
wow.. I NEVA heard that @ Charlie Sheen & I don't think that he'd still have cred if this were true-the turning him onto drugs, sure..but not the molestation. Cory has also defended Michael Jackson too & said that he saved him from the pedophiles & just wanted to be a kid himself. & I think Cory would write a real tell-all cuz he's kinda brokeReplyCancel
BS, I just came back from a weekend of X , no sex could be had. Limp dick is what you get, unless you it's meth. Only one molecule separates x & methReplyCancel

You Know What I Hate?! - March 12th
Cam Davie
March 12 2012 02:09PM
This chess-playing kid is angry. And so am I. Do people really get that angry playing chess?
Or did this kid's opponent spill his unflavoured almond milk or something.
(Photo from ebaumsworld)
Today I continue my weekly feature of me venting and raging on stupid crap happening with the Canucks, their fans and around the NHL. Two things about feature... 1) It will appear (hopefully) every Monday (this week, Tuesday!), and 2) It is blatantly ripped off from a stand-up bit from comedian Craig Anton. On either point, I make no apologies. Enjoy. Or don't.
This week, I deliver an illegal, unpunished hit to the Canucks disappearing "core", the red line, and suddenly sympathetic Bruins fans.
You know what I hate?! The Canucks vanishing act. I'm actually dreading watching Canucks games lately, knowing that it's going to be a exercise in futility. Several Canucks players, such as the Sedins, Burrows, Luongo, Edler, Bieksa, Salo, Hansen, and of course Raymond, just aren't playing even remotely up to snuff, and the team has been mired in a miserable stretch of games. It's rather unsettling that the bulk of that list is made up of players deemed to be the "core" of this club. But Saturday's loss has to be the low-point of the season. A one-sided loss to one of the league's worst team, and what's worse: several Canucks players gave no physical push-back when the likes of PK Subban took liberties with the twins. It just showed how little the Canucks care right now. And their next three games are against (in order) Phoenix, Columbus and Minnesota. Yeah, it's gonna take ALL the powers of my fandom to watch games for the next 9 days. It's really hard to embrace the hate when your team is jammed in neutral.
You know what I hate?! The very idea of the return of the red line. GTFO. Now. The two-line pass was the dumbest thing about hockey. It's dumber than the trapezoid. It's dumber than the glass clearing, delay-of-game penalty. It's dumber than the shootout. If ANYONE with half a brain associated with the NHL thinks that the re-institution of the red-line and the two-line pass is the best way right now to slow down the game and cut down on head injuries, then he deserves to take a Zdeno Chara hit to a stanchion. (Relax, ya bleeding hearts. OF COURSE I'm exaggerating. It's for effect, ya numbnuts.) Do you want to cut down on head injuries? START PENALIZING AND SUSPENDING EVERY HIT TO THE HEAD! And do you want to speed the game back up again? Go back to calling penalties!
You know what I hate?! Evgeni Malkin. YAH. Evgeni Malkin. How many players is he going to concuss before the league suspends him? Canucks fans know full well that Malkin knocked Willie Mitchell out for his final season with Vancouver with a nasty hit. Well he was at it again against Boston, as he hit Johnny Boychuk hard enough that you actually see little blue cartoon birdies fluttering above Boychuk's helmet. Believe me, it PAINS me to empathize at all with anything related to Boston, in terms of injuries, but that Malkin hit was stupid and he now has a history of hitting players to the point of giving them concussions. God forbid the NHL actually shows that it sports some balls and suspends its leading scorer for an ugly hit. Because Lord knows THAT wouldn't send a message.
You know what I hate?! Suddenly sympathetic Bruins fans. You guys BEG for blood in every game. When Marchand chopped down Salo, the entire Bruins fanbase called Salo a pussy and tore him apart for FAKING injury. Yes, for faking a concussion. They think Brendan Shanahan hands out suspensions like they're parking tickets. Oh, but WAIT. Malkin hits Boychuk and all of sudden it's "Where's the suspension?!" and "Shanahan is the new Colin Campbell!?" and "Where is the justice?!". CAMAN! You can't have it both ways, Bruins fans. If you want blood, you got it. And your Bruins always find a way to deliver that. But you can't beg for justice when your own blood is spilled. You live by the sword, you die by the sword. Now, see, us Canucks fans know how to do it probably. We whine about EVERYTHING so we've got our bases covered.
You know what I hate?! Flavour-of-the-month Dancing kids getting flown to NEW YORK!! WHAT?!?!?! Is that all it takes to take an all-expenses paid trip to New York to appear on the Today Show?! Dance like an idiot on TV?! Ok then, the next time I'm on camera, you turds are gonna see some HELLA embarrassing dancing! What's that you say? It only works if you're an adorable child with an endless number of awesome dance moves and the video of you dancing goes viral globally? Christ, man, I CANNOT catch a break. If only my kid was ever on TV 9 years ago in a continent-wide campaign for diapers. If only.

Skip to comments.2006 - Giuliani Endorses McCain-Kennedy Immigration Reform [Amnesty]
Posted on 05/18/2007 10:31:35 AM PDT by EternalVigilance
GIULIANI: And I think that, you know, we're going through a very serious debate on immigration and I think that I look at it from the point of view of how do we create more security for the United States? How do we, in an era of a war on terrorism, which is going to continue for the indefinable future, and then some of the other problems that we have, how do we create more security? And I think that either extreme is not the right answer.
One extreme is what I would call the punitive approach, which is reflected in the House legislation that was passed, which is to make it a crime to be an illegal or undocumented immigrant; it is illegal now but it's not a crime and I believe, if I recall correctly, that it would make it a five-year felony and there are 11 million illegal immigrants in the United States. It would become a law that was honored in the breach and it could not possibly be enforced.
To give you the dimensions that I remember, at least when I was the Mayor, it's estimated that there are about 400,000 people in that category in New York, it could be more now but it used to be about 400,000. The Immigration and Naturalization Service, I believe, deports about 1,500 to 2,000 people a year so I pretty quickly figured out that I was going to have 398,000 illegal immigrants no matter what the federal government did and I had to do something sensible about it rather than something stupid and kind of make it work in the society in which we exist.
Well, that's really the picture for the whole country and to deal with it in a punitive way is actually going to make us considerably less secure than we already are because the problem is that we have such a huge underground that we can't really keep account of who's here, who they are, identify them, and kind of separate the ones that are here for benign or neutral purposes, which we can argue about the competitiveness and the economy and everything else, but they're not really doing damage to our society, might even be making vast contributions to it, and then focus on the people that we have to focus on who are the people that might come here to carry out terrorist acts or to sell drugs or to commit crimes and the reason we can't do that well is that we have a system already that's unenforceable, that's unrealistic given the numbers of people that want to come here, the size of our borders, the number of resources that we could conceivably have to apply to it.
So the right answer is to do the things that have to be done to secure our borders, introduce new technology, require more of people in describing who they are, identify them effectively, fingerprint them or finger image them if you have to, photograph them, come up with cards for them, use the modern methods that we presently have for identifying people but don't try to legislate against the inevitable forces of, you know, social movement and the economy because it isn't going to work. So we have to find a way and I think that the compromise the Senate was looking at something along those lines makes sense.
Give people a way to earn citizenship, give them a way to earn citizenship in which they have to demonstrate facility with English and they have jobs and they're paying taxes and they've put themselves in an entirely legal status, recognize the economic forces that are realistic ones that require people to come into the United States or require people to have people come into the United States, and you identify them and you have them pay taxes and you find out who they are and then you concentrate on the people who are avoiding that and you'll be capable of doing that because it'll be a problem the dimensions of which you can touch and feel and measure and see and it'll be much harder for terrorists to hide in a situation like that.
And I think that the Manhattan Institute, which sort of turns on trying to figure out the logical and sensible answer to a problem, can play a big role in getting us to think about immigration in a way that it is sensible and it gets us to a resolution that makes us more secure because I think that going in either extreme is going to hurt us.
The funny part is that I followed the rules and didn't change the headline from the source. :-)
Where do Rudy's votes (poll numbers) come from? I know of noone that personally supports him.
I try to be. And you?
Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey, goodbye.

..[pause] a mental insitution, michael [pause]. maybe its something you ought to think about ..[chair swivels]
My bad...I just read the thing...haha. Oh well, never too many links.
Good bye Rooty! You just lost any chance of getting the GOP nomination.
Hey Rockin,
I was bracing myself for the eventuality of having to vote for the Mayor. No es problemo anymore. This is a pretty hot issue right now and can vault the guy with the right angle on illegals to the top of the pile.
I seriously have to question any potential candidate's inability to read the tea leaves on this; in addition to being on the wrong side of the arguement it's just poor judgement. Such a candidate could not be trusted to make sound judgements as President.
I don't know about Romney and his flip flops. I got my fingers crossed for Senator Fred, but I'm afraid that Rudy is no mas.
That does it for me. Anyone but Rudy and the nut job from AZ.
They're off my list, too.
Go figure the swimmer torpedoes to of the "liberals most likely to succeed" with one bullet.
Thanks for flushing 'em out, Teddy!
All the clauses put in this amnesty bill mean nothing because they won't be enforced...We have been betrayed by our politicians since 1965..
Government agencies will be created under Immigration Reform..These agencies will be staffed and run by the people who were illegal or by Latinos, Chicana, Hispanic,, who still talk with heavy accents yet are legal.
Let's face it, we have been sold out by liberal democratic politicians who have socially engineered our country to resemble a Bananna republic....it's all for votes.
The ding bat California politicians sold out California and now they are in key positions in Washington DC...Get used to socialism or worse...
All the leaders with BALLS have been emasculated by political correctness, diversity, and gender....
When the European American becomes the minority in this country you will see persecution. Minority status and the perks that go with it will never be given to European American males...They are the bad guys....
Careful now,...they may try to recraft their message after reading tomorrows polls - at least Rudy might. McCain is too deep into it to back out. He may as well save his dough and retire.
Now we will have them caught in their lie before they get off the stage. Every talking head on TV that will interview them after the debate will have the info on the lie emailed to them in 5 minutes.
It doesn't work like it did 10 short years ago.
Here's Romney's take in 2005.
it is illegal now but it's not a crime
"Ah ain't got time for this jibba-jabba." Mr. T
Version 1 of ? on his take of the legislation? Thanks for the info!
I despise this moron, Rudy!!
Rudy is an IDIOT!
I agree.
Go post this at Wideawkes and watch the meltdown. ;o)
Somehow I doubt they'd let me in the door. ;-)
Can something like that be sent out in mass emails? Like a bumper sticker?
Hey Rooty, this is for you for claiming it's not a crime to be here illegally. Then explain what illegal means.
Here's the link to the transcript of the speech that heads up this thread:
I know so many people who are seriously struggling financially and if this crapola immigration proposal goes through and lowers wages anymore we might as well move to MEXICO! I have emailed both my Senator Mitch McConnell and Congressman Geoff Davis and plan on calling their offices and Jim Bunning. There really need to be a strong message out there to get people to understand what cheap labor will do for the wages of Americans.
Keep those phones and emials burning. We need to slap then out of their stupor.
Oh wow. Such a surprise that Rooty takes the liberal, America-destroying side in this.
All you Rootyphiles who think he's soooooooooooo tough on Terror should look at this and weep.
HAH! I *LOVE* it!
> I know so many people who are seriously struggling financially and if this crapola immigration proposal goes through and lowers wages anymore we might as well move to MEXICO!
Ya know, I don't get it! I thought the Libs were all pro-lower/middle-class and big minimum wage hounds. Yet they support the biggest influx of cheap labor in decades!
Nobody who supports illegal amnesty is serving America. They are serving themselves, their donors, and/or their political power. And they'll destroy this country to do it, too. GOP, Dims, everybody. They're all corrupt b@stards!!!
"Go post this at Wideawkes"
What's the name of the site??
Of course it can be emailed, it's just a ~40k jpeg file. It wouldn't be very good as a bumper sticker, but if you mean a virtual bumper sticker in an e-mail, sure. Help yourself.
Bye now.
It's up to Fred. Will you run Fred?
LOL Good pic.
Who here is surprised he supports this?
2. Idiots who believe that "we must stop Hillary!" even if it meant voting for Stalin.
3. Folks who hang on Sean Hannity's every word.
Good. Leaky old wrecks with stuck rudders that only sail left belong on the bottom.
I'll never vote for Rudy! He's a closet RAT and bad for the Nation. My take on illegals is so extreme now that I'll vote for the guy who closes the borders first, deports as many as possible and generally makes it his issue. Tancredo fits the bill now, but he has too many enemies, including many Freepers. Maybe it's to be Fred, but he has not really joined the fray and may not.

PRICE, UT - Recreation managers on the Manti-La Sal National Forest
are interested in hearing your comments on a proposal to increase the
fee at Seely Guard Station.
Ferron/Price Ranger District: Seely Guard Station would increase fees
from $30 to $50 per night.
"We recognize how important this site is to our local communities and
those who use the site," said Bill Broadbear, Manti-La Sal recreation
program manager. "These fees will help us maintain the new and
improved site to the level and quality people have come to expect."
All fee proposals will be presented before a citizen's advisory
committee, Utah Recreation Resource Advisory Committee (RRAC).
Committee members represent a broad array of recreation interest
groups to help ensure that the Forest Service is proposing reasonable
and publicly acceptable fee changes. Committee members will help
ensure that the Forest Service addresses public issues and concerns
about recreation fees. The public is welcome to attend and comment at
all advisory committee meetings. The next RRAC meeting is expected to
be held in the winter of 2013, the exact meeting time, location and
agenda will be announced on forest website and through local media.
These fee proposals will also have extensive reviews by both the
Forest Service Regional and Washington Offices.
In 2004, Congress passed the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act
which allows the Forest Service to keep 95 percent of fees collected
at certain recreation sites and use these funds locally to operate and
maintain and improve these sites.
Most recreation opportunities on Manti-La Sal National Forest lands
are free. The Manti-La Sal National Forest manages about 133 developed
recreation sites, of which about 44 currently charge fees. Of those
sites charging fees more than 70 percent are campgrounds and
lookout/cabin rentals.
The Seely Guard Station may be reserved. Visitors wanting to use
them must make reservations via toll free number (877) 444-6777 or
online at www.recreation.gov

By Gene Phelps/NEMS Daily Journal
TUPELO – Oxford coach Shayne Linzy had a message for his Lady Chargers after a season-opening loss to Senatobia.
Oxford went undefeated last year and won the Class 4A state championship.
"It's over, the streak is over," Linzy told his players. "Now, let's start your own streak. That was last year's team."
The Lady Chargers, behind 26 points from preseason all-state forward Alexus Malone, started their win streak Tuesday in the Tupelo Tip-Off Classic with a convincing 75-24 victory against Corinth.
Malone, a 5-foot-11 senior, scored 16 points in the first half to help Oxford build a commanding 45-16 halftime lead. She scored 10 points early in the third quarter and went to the bench with her team leading 58-18.
Malone, the top returning player from last season's 33-0 team, thought her team responded well to Saturday's 43-41 loss to Senatobia.
"Everybody was kind of down, especially coming off an undefeated season," she said. "We needed that. We know this is going to be a rebuilding season.
"I do think we have enough talent to take us where we want to go."
Linzy said he was proud of his team's response against Corinth.
"We finished shots, we made free throws," he said. "It was good to get that first win. I thought the girls played a lot looser tonight, more upbeat."
Oxford hustled from the opening tip and upset the Lady Warriors with full-court pressure to roll to a 25-7 first-quarter lead.
Quickly clicking
The coach liked what he saw from his young lineup, one that featured two sophomores and a freshman, 5-11 forward Kyla Malone, the sister of Alexus.
"I wasn't sure how effective our press would be," he said. "Tonight, it clicked. We ran three different presses and the girls were able to adjust on the fly. We didn't have to call a timeout."
Janesha Johnson scored 13 points and returning starter Amber Sisk added 7 for Oxford. Aundrea Adams came off the bench with 7 to lead Corinth.
"Our offense goes through Alexus and Amber," Linzy said. "You can put that in bold."

So how many folks actually got demoted to the AHL last season?
JP Nikota
July 26 2012 03:23PM
No, I mean besides anyone who has been traded to Columbus. Fans are often quick to dismiss a player's role on a team, and suggest that the player be sent to an AHL affiliate in order to free the NHL team of the cap hit. Fans of teams in larger markets are assuredly the biggest offenders, and it makes sense - their teams are the ones that can afford it.
I have put together a list of all the players with one-way SPC deals, a minimum of 82 games played in the NHL, and who were demoted to their club's respective AHL affiliate. I've also checked, in cases where the AHL stay is brief, to make sure that none of these players were simply on a conditioning stint.
Some of these names are familiar, and others may surprise you, while omissions may be the subject of some debate. Jay Rosehill, for example, was on a one-way deal last year ($600k, either in the NHL or AHL), but saw limited action, and was sent down briefly to make roster space (and a little cap space) for other players to come up. He doesn't meet the criteria of 82 NHL games however (he's only played 72), and so wasn't included. Nevertheless, the Leafs' willingness to send him down is a sign that the team isn't afraid to flex financial muscle if the need arises.
Here are all the players that met this criteria in the 2011-12 NHL season. Naturally, all figures are in millions of dollars.
*Antero Nittymaki was injured, and briefly assigned to the AHL for a conditioning stint. After playing 8 games with the Sharks' affiliate, he was placed on waivers and went unclaimed, so continued to play in the AHL.
** Mark Fraser was traded from New Jersey to Toronto, and was kept the in AHL by both teams.
†Crystobal Huet is a notable exemption to this list, but he is considered to be "loaned" to a team in France.
The first thing I think is important to notice here is that there were only five players in the entire league last season that earned multi-million dollar contracts and wound up relegated to a minor league club for more than half the year. Rostislav Olesz in Chicago, Sean Avery and Wade Redden in New York, Jeff Finger in Toronto, and Steven Reinprecht in Vancouver.
Sean Avery, of course, is in a category of his own, as he was not only only put on NHL waivers and left unclaimed, but was also left off the Conneticut Whales' clear day roster as well. After proclaiming on TV that he had thrown his skates into the Hudson River and was retiring from hockey, his agent contradicted that, and said that his future is 'up in the air'.
So, lunacy aside, there were only four players that saved their team significant cap space. There were another three playres that saved their respective teams between one and two million on the cap, but let's face it: this is a relatively uncommon practice in the NHL, and we as fans need to get used to it - especially because this kind of cap loophole may not be available in the next CBA.
Below is a table that shows every team in the league, ordered from highest payroll to lowest, and how many players they bought out:
Can you spot the trend here? It's the reason that the NHL and NHLPA will likely want to get rid of this feature of the current CBA. None of the lowest-spending teams can afford to bury players, and it gives an unfair advantage to the wealthier teams. The NHL wants parity, the NHLPA wants players to maintain NHL jobs. Of course, maybe the PA doesn't care, so long as its players (and their replacements) are well paid, but that's another debate.
Great read. This should have been put up on all the nations.
This is interesting, In the new CBA, I wonder if some sort of amesty buyout could be put forward by guys like these. if another team wishes to sign them for less money.
ie) If a team wanted to bring in Wade Redden, and pay him $1 million for the duration of his contract, then the Rangers would only need to pay him 5 million and no cap hit to the Rangers.
This would allow burried guys to try and get back into the NHL.
just my 2 cents.
July 26 2012, 10:57PM
I know that Edmonton had no one that fit into this model this year, however, the team does actually have the cash flow (presently) to do this. I point to the Sheldon Souray fiasco. That being said, the bigger point is that teams in smalled markets are not apt to do this on a regular basis. And yes I agree, this a gap in finances that should be closed.
Wow. Not being a Leaf fan I never really looked at Fingers stats before he got his big contract. Not sure if there's been a more unjustifiable contract.
I've always thought that it was garbage that teams like the Rangers were able to bury a terrible contract in the AHL without suffering the cap hit. They signed Redden to that horrible deal they should have to deal with the consequences of that decision.
July 27 2012, 06:33AM
Good stuff JP. Some nice ammunition when people say "oh we'll just bury him in the minors"
Cool list. The Rangers are big time spenders eh?
One thing tho i did note - Steven Reinprecht should have the same ** as Mark Fraser. Early in the year he was traded from Florida to Vancouver & stayed buried in the AHL.
July 27 2012, 01:06PM
We have a sneaking suspicion that Fletcher thought he was signing Kurt Sauer.
Whatever happened to Steven Reinphrect?
Mark Fraser was traded to the Leafs from the Ducks.
Mark Fraser was traded to the Leafs from the Ducks.
Mark Fraser was traded to the Leafs from the Ducks.
Mark Fraser was traded to the Leafs from the Ducks.
Who owns the freakin' Rangers? They can afford to be close to cap spenders AND bury almost $14M in the minors.
I still fail to see why Feaster would trade a pick to Buffalo just to get rid of Kotalik, when he could've just been left in the minors. Pretty sure Buffalo just shipped Kotalik right off to Europe. Flames tried it, and Kotalik refused to go.
Ales Kotalik is a cancer. Just like Avery. Just like Redden. Just like... well, maybe there is a reason some of those billion dollar contracts are sitting in the minors.

The Reebok Ai9 hockey sticks are the premier sticks in the Reebok Ai stick line. The Ai hockey sticks focus on providing maximum power. Reebok has introduced a few new features to the Ai 9 hockey stick such as, the 2:1 power taper, Xlerated Blade, and mid-kick point to make the A.I 9 stick the most powerful stick from Reebok.
The greatest difference between the Ai 9 stick and the Reebok 11K is the flex point. The Reebok AI9 stick features a mid-kick point that is not quite as fast of a shot release but it results in a more powerful shot because it allows the stick to store more energy. Reebok recently examined several NHL players stick to see what flex profile was being used and found that 60% of the players were using mid-kick sticks and only 40% were using low kick sticks.
To further increase power Reebok has introduced the 2:1 power taper, and Xlerated blade. The 2:1 ratio is that the top and bottom walls are twice as stiff as the sides. According to Reebok this design allows for effortless loading and maximum power transfer/stability. Reebok has also added a new blade core to the Ai 9 stick which they are calling the Xlerated Blade. The Xlerated Blade is a new highly reactive foam bare combined with an added layer of extra stiff carbon on the blade surface provide more direct power.
The Reebok Ai nine stick features a dark profile from the players perspective to make it a little easier for the player to identify with the puck.

- Optibalance™ strategically integrated weight at the top of the shaft improves balance for a live feel
- Every stick is checked before it leaves the factory to ensure it has unmatched balance point
- Pure fiber construction one-piece construction that eliminates overlapping material in the lower shaft reducing weight and offing more consistency for maximum energy transfer
- Flex Profile:

Comments: LOVE IT!!!! Super light!!!! Strong!!!
From: Vinnie
Comments: I got a AI.9 pro stock stick from an unnamed recently drafted player. Anyway, I
just play beer league and rec hockey; stick is feather light. 100 flex so it is decently stiff,
really responsive off the blade on clappers.
Worth a shot (pun intended). I like it better than the Warrior twigs i've been using.
From: Ben
Comments: I picked one of these up because I broke my APX. My neighbor told me that reebok's are more durable
then any stick he has used. The carbon fiber window is a good idea for consumer purposes but not for the durability of the
product. I
used it this weekend in a tournament and the adhesive that holds the stick together in the blade started to separate. A good stick
breaks to fast.
From: Will US
Comments: Ive been playing hockey at the AAA and later ACHA D3 level for 16 years, and after
every brand during that time Ive finally settled with Reebok and this stick tops them all. By far the best twig Ive ever used. I play D
and this is perfect for slapshots and one-timers from the point and is deadly when the occasion to snipe one down low comes
around. Extremely durable as Ive had it for a bit over a month and the only thing is some paint chipping, but I buy sticks for
over form. Compare that to other brands where I went through three twigs in three months.. Very light compared to other sticks
used, which took some getting used to, but thats a problem Ill take any day. And I love the 2:1 ratio of the shaft. I was skeptical at
first but when you fire a slapshot with this stick and then one from another brand its quite noticeable. The higher kickpoint to
top of the line sticks is perfect for D-men and others who dont need to get off the quickest shots, but rather need ones harder
more accurate. I can pick corners from anywhere on the ice with this twig. All in all 5/5 stars. I would highly recommend this stick

Skip to comments.Giants Win World Series - Will it Affect Voter Turnout?
Posted on 11/02/2010 6:22:27 AM PDT by paul in cape
Now that the Giants have won the World Series, Will Bay Area voters come out of their self-induced marijuana and opium high in time to vote today? If you remember, a few days ago Candlestick Park was engulfed in a haze of pot smoke, to the point that even Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton, a recovering drug abuser, complained about the aroma.
(Excerpt) Read more at sanfrancisco.giants.mlb.com ...
If the hippies in California stay home, that can only help
Isn't the Giant's stadium one of the very few major sports venues that was not built with taxpayer money? If so, I'm glad they won.
I pray that all the SF Giant fans stay home from voting today. Congratulations on your win. Now celebrate in drunkenness at home.
Hmmmm..good point, I never thought of that. I hope it does...and that the sane (if there's any left) folks, show up at the polls today.
Liberals, in general don't care about sports. So I figure a good number of Giant fans are probably more conservative.
Uhm... That's AT&T Park. Giants haven't played at Candlestick for many years.
I can tell you that people on twitter are 100% for prop 19. And that's 100%. I just read prop19 on twitter, hit more 5 times, read maybe 200 or so posts. Every single person on twitter is Yes on Prop 19. No person tweeted anything about any candidate, in a search for prop19.
Not sure exactly if that means anything.
Sorry, I don't follow the Giants, and I guess I'm dating myself.
It means potheads like Twitter.
I doubt that there would be much affect in the western states.
As someone stated above, liberals usually don't care anything about sports. But aside from that, our only hope here in the Bay area is that San Franciscans will be too demoralized over the projected GOP sweep to go out and vote to keep Pelosi in office - but I wouldn't count on it.
"I guess I'm dating myself"
That's ok. Here's a woman who married herself!
Correct, but Liberals enjoy rioting and partying. Which is going on right now.
Is San Francisco? Maybe Bela Pelosi's voters will be too drunk to remember where the polls are.
Down toward the end, we have this:
"I'm calling in sick tomorrow - everyone is calling in sick," said Patrick Steber, 31, as he celebrated on Castro Street.
"And then I'll vote around noon," he said. "We have to honor (pitcher) Timmy Lincecum by passing (the measure to legalize marijuana) Proposition 19."
Hey, now. Don't lump us all into one category. Some of us are far-flung across the country. And besides, even among the local Giants fans, I'd be willing to bet most are more red-blooded American than sports-hating liberals.
The Giants do not play at Candlestick, the Niners play there.
Actually, if you want liberal sports-fans, I think you go with the Warriors (assuming that is still a franchise). Giants fans are too hardy to be liberal, even if the team has moved to better climate downtown. And I'm a Giants fan and I voted on Oct 14th, basically the very first chance I had. Straight Pubbie ticket here in North Carolina, so it doesn't turn into Californication Nation East.
Many lefties love sports....
...and just like in an election, if the lefties team loses, many will say the other side cheated or stole the game.
The San Francisco Giants merit kudos for one thing at least: their ball park was entirely financed by private borrowing. In one fashion or another, almost every other major league professional sports team has their hand in the public till, thus indirectly transferring wealth from the taxpayers to team owners and players.
Well I know nothing about Giants fans, I'm sure there are some. But I saw a couple of World Series games in Oakland and the crowd was totally blase. Not into it at all.
RATS that turn over cars and start fires in the streets will be sleeping in today. Today I am a Giants fan.
...and just like in an election, if the lefties team loses, many will say the other side cheated or stole the game.
Ah, this explains Seattle after SB XL ...
That's ok. I date myself all the time. Mainly because I can't get a woman to date me!
i just did another search, and it appears that whoever on twitter is against prop 19 will refer to it as "prop 19", everyone referring to prop19 is for it. It's the difference between "prop19" and "prop 19" . It appears that a few drug dealers are worried.
Twitter likes pot, rather than potheads liking twitter. Twitter is pretty popular, and there isn't too much No on 19 out there in twitterville.
Well, maybe.
There are more potheads than not potheads I guess?
Just trying to figure out how nobody on Twitter is no on 19?
Of course, twitter is young people mostly, and young people are all yes on 19, but the only no on 19 I saw was from street drug dealers worried about income.
Why would that be embarrassing and why would it change minds?
I can see rioting in a Liberal city associated strongly with Democrats would make people associate Democrats with rioting, and most people are against rioting.
Someone did an analysis a while ago on sports fans and political leanings.
They plotted it on a chart that showed NBA fans to the left, NFL fans to the right and MLB fans right in the middle.
This points to a win for prop 19, and likely problems for Fiorina and Whitman.
It doesn't appear that there's much of an "enthusiasm gap" in San Fran. All across the country, Dems are demoralized - there's nothing for them to vote for. Here, they're honoring the hero pitcher. A reason for them to vote, and instead of working for 8 hours or more, they're doing nothing but voting.
And, typically, "change" candidates don't do as well when the home team wins. Winning the World Series "all is well", not as angry, not wanting change quite as much.
I hope that's tongue in cheek. It's so wrong for many reasons:
(1) Many SF Giants fans live outside the bay area - in Reagan country.
(2) Of the fans that are SF libs, what do you care if they vote? They will re-elect Pelosi, who will then resign next year when she loses her gavel.
This is one lifelong Giants fan who already voted the GOP ticket by absentee ballot. And my district arguably has the most competitive House race (Harmer) and competitive state Assembly race (Wilson) in the state.
100% correct. The rest of MLB owners hate the Giants because they did not accept one dime of public funding (SF stupidvisors would be outraged if someone took a dollar away from the homeless people).
One of the biggest crimes of the century is taking money from the working stiffs (via taxation) and transferring it to the benefit of wealthy team owners and players. NFL,NBA,MLB and Hockey are highly profitable enterprises, they can afford to build their own stadiums and sell tickets to pay for them.
You can't smoke cigarettes but you can smoke weed, especially around kids? That is embarrassing. Makes SF look childish. Allot of parents were pissed off I'm sure.
Say what?
Right, the cigarettes thing. Good point.
Hey, I haven't paid attn to them since Rick Barry retired, and from what I see elsewhere about b-ball fans...but you can be the exception that proves the rule, ok? :)
Amen to that.

Super cute, comfy and fun!
"I bought these in silver. I typically wear a 9, and the 9 fit perfectly. At first I was skeptical about how comfortable they could possibly be, but I threw caution to the wind and wore them on St. Patrick's Day walking in a parade over a mile long. They were very comfortable and caused me no problems. It was sort of hilarious...I received 6 or 7 compliments from people in the crowds along the parade route! I have tried on a few other wedge sneakers and they were not comfortable, so I am very happy with these. Buy these!"

USDA Rural Energy for America Program Funds Cut Energy Costs at a Maine Hotel
Written by C. Jeffrey Bergeron, Acting USDA Public Information OfficerUSDA Rural Development Under Secretary Dallas Tonsager and Maine Rural Development State Director Virginia Manuel visited a Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) project in Ogunquit, Maine while attending the 2010 National Association of Credit Specialists Annual Convention earlier this week.
The project was at the Meadowmere Hotel in Ogunquit, which with the aid of a USDA Rural Development REAP Grant of $49,625 was able to install a state-of-the-art commercial solar thermal hot water system to preheat a significant portion of the domestic hot water for the building.
The approximate 30 percent savings the Meadowmere Hotel will recoup in energy costs will allow the hotel to continue to sustain its business and 53 jobs. "This project is a perfect example of how Rural Development is working to help keep the Maine economy on track" said Manuel, as she and Under Secretary Tonsager visited the hotel and viewed the solar thermal system. Manuel said, "The solar thermal hot water system is a great source of clean renewable energy, and USDA Rural Development is dedicated to supporting the rural Maine economy by funding green projects like this one."
Standing in front of the solar panels on the hotels roof are (Left to Right) Allyson Cavaretta, Under Secretary Dallas Tonsager, Owner Phillip Cavaretta, and Maine State Director Virginia Manuel. The energy saving panels were funded in part with funds from USDA's Rural Energy for America Program.

Trans Siberian Orchestra, or commonly referred to as TSO, is currently on tour selling out live concerts all over the nation. The TSO winter tour of 2009/2010 made a stop in Austin, TX and Matt and Krystle were lucky enough to have been there. Here are some things that they have said about the concert.
The concert was amazing! They had the best set, the best musicians, and the best singers at the concert. They even showcased songs from their most current album, Night Castle. The concert had the most incredible lights, lasers, and pyrotechnics which made the concert unique and outstanding. The light show went along with the songs they were playing and were synchronized perfectly. When a guitarist would play and use the whammy bar, laser streams would light up the stage. Also, when the entire orchestra, guitarists, and main violinists would rock out the stage would light up and fire would be blasted from the stage. Without these effects the concert still would've been good, but the use of such effects made it even more incredible.
The guitarists couldn't have been any better. They all had long hair which was always being used for head banging and flaring around. They would rock out with their guitars and moved and ran around the stage. Some of the best musicians tour with TSO and make up the band. One of the lead guitarists produced amazing rock bands such as Aerosmith. The guitarists had amazing stage presence and got the crowd involved with cheering and clapping. Angus was always pointing and smiling at Matt and Krystle.
There were two crazy and incredible violinists. They would play madly and wildly, run around the stage and the concert venue, and flare the hair around while rocking out on their violins. They had very interesting violins that must have been made specifically for the genre they play which is rock and roll mixed classical music. The violins were hollow. At one point during the concert Matt noticed that the girl violinist's hair got stuck. Krystle also noticed that she was playing so hard that some of the strings broke on the violin.
The singers' voices were beautiful. The girls could carry out any tune. One man who had a lot of solos throughout the concert, has toured and sung with Journey during his career. His voice was so strong and loud and represented the essence of rock and roll. He also had long hair that was never short of a hair flip or some type of head banging.
TSO is such an awesome rock band that transforms classical Christmas music for their concerts. Matt and Krystle would recommend anyone to go to one of their concerts and support their music. Not only are they a great band, but they are also very charitable. TSO donates proceeds from every concert to a local organization or school from every city they tour in.
