Lady Pirates claim region 19 title, boys in hunt.
With victories over Monument Valley and Navajo Mountain last week, the Green River High Lady Pirates have gone undefeated in region 19 play and are this season's champions. The Lady Pirates are now set for a 5:30 p.m. game this Wednesday at the Sevier Valley Center in Richfield in the state 1-A playoffs.
Green River defeated Monument Valley 65-44 and then defeated Navajo Mountain 91-28.
Brandi Webster led the team in the game against Monument Valley with 24 points and 13 rebounds. Webster followed up that game with 18 points against Navajo Mountain.
Green River built a 10 point first quarter lead, increased it to 20 points at the half, increased it further to 28 points after three and then cruised home.
Cady Mecham scored 12 points in the game, Courtney Carter scored nine points, Bailie Packer and Lindsey Spadafora added six points each and Sarah Swalberg, Megan Hatt, Crosby Hatt and Tracy Engleman each scored two points.
Green River had a 24-0 lead against Navajo Mountain after the first quarter, increased it to 45-9 at the half and won really big. Crosby Hatt led the way with 20 points. Mecham and Spadafora added 12 points, Carter scored eight points with Packer scoring six points, Megan Hatt scored five points, Swalberg scored four points and Brittney Bastian, Trejo and Melissa Antillon scoring two points each.
The boy's team defeated Grand 58-55 on a Brennan Bigelow last second 3-pointer and Navajo Mountain 74-37 as the Johnson brothers had 40 points in the game. They lost to Dugway 57-37. Green River is fighting for playoff position in the tournament that begins March 4 in Richfield.
Kayden Mecham led the team with 21 points against Grand while Bigelow scored nine points. Jason Johnson and Tyson Johnson each scored 12 points in the win. Holden Marshall scored four points.
In the non-region contest against Dugway, Green River fell behind early and never made a serious run after that. Tyson scored 10 points to lead the team and Kayden added nine points. Holden Marshall, Jason Johnson and Kayden each scored five points and Justin Johnson added three points.
Against Navajo Mountain, Green River got off to a great start by outscoring the Jaguars 31-8 in the opening quarter of play. Jason Johnson scored 19 points, Justin Johnson scored 13 points and Tyson Johnson added eight points as the brothers played well. Kayden Mecham added eight points with Brennan Bigelow, Holden Marshall and Cody Seager scoring six points each. Adam Steuer scored four points and Caleb White scored two points.
The boys will host Whitehorse in a rematch game with the Pirates looking for revenge for an earlier loss. That game is Wednesday.

Thank you for visiting Kaleidoscope's Lost Television search engine.
We've got details on more than 175,000 different episodes, almost 40,000 of which are not thought to exist in the 'official' archives. Now, before you get too depressed by this fact, some of these are really old shows which were made before television programmes were generally recorded at all. We realise it's very unlikely that these older programmes will exist at all, but there's always the chance that someone recorded some 8mm film footage of them off their television screen or maybe made a sound recording of them while they were being broadcast. That's still of interest to us.
However, our main hope is that someone will be able to help us recover some programmes which were recorded, but which are now thought to be lost for ever. That's what this search engine is for – to help you identify whether that old film print you've got in your attic, or that old video recording you made back in the early 1970s is missing from the archives.
You can type in a programme name, or an episode name and click on 'Search' and it will give you some summary information whether or not the programme is lost. You don't have to enter a complete name, entering part of the name – unless it's very short – should find it too. If some or all of that programme is lost, you can click on a link and get further details. If it's a music or variety programme you have, you may be able to locate it by typing in the names of one of the main guests and clicking on 'Search'. This information is far from complete, but it may help you to identify a particular edition.
Our information is good, but it's not perfect. There will be mistakes in it, and we know it's incomplete. In particular, information is very patchy on programmes in the following categories:
This website only contains information concerning British Television broadcasts. If you have a recording of a radio programme (produced before 1980) and are contacting us in connection with the BBC Radio Four Lost Shows Appeal, you can email us by clicking here.

Second Investigation into Cancer Related Illnesses
among National Gallery of Australia Employees
Meeting No 1
Date: 15 August 2006
Venue: Boardroom
Tim Driscoll; Gary Foster; Darrel Lord; David Hermolin (CPSU); Phil Johnstone (CFMEU); Craig O'Sullivan; Melinda Carlisle; Alan Froud; Tony Rhynehart
1. Steering Committee Terms of Reference
The draft terms of reference were amended, and will be circulated to the Steering Committee for endorsement, and then circulated to all staff prior to the all-staff meetings being held on Wednesday 23 August 2006. Further revision of the terms of reference will be considered following the all-staff meetings.
The Steering Committee comprises: David Hermolin (CPSU), Darrel Lord, (Security) Phil Johnstone (CFMEU), Craig O'Sullivan, (Manager Security), Melinda Carlisle, (Manager OH&S), Alan Froud, (Deputy Director) and Tony Rhynehart (Head Human Resource Management and Business Support).
- TR to revise draft ToR
2. Steering Committee's operation
The Steering Committee will meet as required, rather than at set intervals. Tele-conferencing facilities may be utilised.
In conjunction with the Investigation Team the Steering Committee will establish milestones and time-lines, and oversee progress against these indicators.
3. Conduct of the Investigation
The investigation will comprise 2 phases. They are:
- assessing past and current exposures to physical, chemical and biological hazards; and
- cross-matching names of current and former staff and volunteers with records in all Australian state and territory cancer registries, and then analysing the resultant data.
We should allow up to 12 months to finalise the cross-matching of data with the cancer registries, due to the strict requirements of the ethics committees of each of the registries to be satisfied with the proposed data analysis, particularly the need to maintain patient confidentiality.
All current staff and volunteers will be asked to indicate their concurrence to their identification details being submitted to the cancer registries. It will not be compulsory.
Assessing past and current exposures to hazards will involve assessment of Gallery records, as well as discussions with current and former staff and volunteers to obtain an understanding of work practices and the like.
It will be critical to the investigation that as much accurate information as possible can be obtained. Accordingly a range of options will be available for relevant persons to provide relevant information, including anonymously if they prefer. Details of these means will be made available at or prior to the all-staff meetings.
The investigation team will welcome all relevant approaches.
It was noted that the investigation team would be concerned with physical, chemical and biological hazards only.
It was expected that the first phase would be completed by December 2006.
This phase would also include addressing, to the extent possible, the questions / issues raised by staff in response to the Gallery's invitations of March 2005, and any other relevant OH&S questions that arise during the project.
Access to site and information
The investigation team will spend a number of days doing site inspections, and meeting with current and former staff and volunteers.
The Gallery will provide access to all parts of the building, and to all relevant reports and documents.
- HRM to obtain identification details of all current and former staff (from October 1982). (HR Manager)
- HRM to coordinate compilation of identification details of current and former volunteers (from October 1982). (HR Manager).
- TD to advise the set of data identification details.
- MC to facilitate site visits and access to documentation.
4. All staff meetings
Two all-staff meetings have been arranged for Wednesday 23 August. The first at 8:30am, and the second at 10:30am.
The meetings are intended to provide the opportunity for staff and volunteers to be informed of the investigation, its timing and its proposed methodology. The investigation team will amend the proposed methodology, if necessary, following the all-staff meeting, to ensure that it addresses all the relevant concerns of relevant persons.
- MC to arrange meetings.
- MC to advise relevant areas of the Gallery to inform their volunteers of the meetings.
5. Communication processes
Effective 2-way communication will be essential to facilitating as comprehensive an investigation as possible. Accordingly it is expected that the Gallery will utilise the following:
- global emails;
- the staff bulletin;
- OH&S Committee;
- various regular meetings such as Senior Managers and Consultative Committee;
- a dedicated web-page to host Steering Committee minutes and reports.
Access to the investigation team will be facilitated via a number of options. Details to be made available.
6. Next meeting
The next meeting will take place following the 10:30 all-staff meeting of 23 August 2006, if necessary (depending on meeting outcome). Otherwise to be scheduled.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Unfortunately, as i love Game of thrones books and series, this, looks like a shitty game with poor graphics and disgusting animation keys for a 2012, or even a 2013 game.
But it's not "as" bad as the solo game that sucked even more.
i can not imagine how this game will be successful ,i cringed at every part of the teaser.

Graphic quality, how much is it worth?
It is not just the graphic quality, it is the typical Bigpoint trash game. They are just throwing this game together to get it out while the IP is popular. One of the worst developers out there, bar none.
This looks just awful.
This IP is amazing and it could give us a fantastic MMO.
I dont think will be this one... (i wish i could be wrong).
"A Song of Fire and Ice" deserves so much more than this obvious attempt to cash-in on the TV show's popularity.
Is there an unwritten rule that all games based on A Song of Ice and Fire must suck?
I honestly got sad when I saw this. One of my favorite book series is being trashed, and it really rips at my soul that George R. R. Martin sold out like this.
Looks like trash as expected, when it was anounced it was a bigpoint game we all knew what was coming look at BSG online, another great IP turned in to a shitty browser game.
you guys should remember this is Browser game, so graphic wise, i think it's fine, but the battle... ugh.. not so much eh
there goes another amazing IP developed by some random dev
So What Now?

A neutral trainer with a responsive and lightweight feel, the Saucony Ride 5 offers moderate cushioning and a semi-soft ride.
The Saucony Ride 5 brings you good cushioning and a smooth ride in a road-ready package. This neutral shoe has full-length cushioning and a flexible forefoot, with an open mesh upper to keep feet cool. The outsole uses durable carbon rubber to handle any number of miles.
Model Number:
Weight: 8.9 oz (size 8)
Stack Height: Heel (28mm), Forefoot (20mm)
Available Widths: B=Medium
How It Fits (based on width B)
The ProGrid Ride 5 is a moderate feature, moderate neutral shoe designed for daily training and high mileage. It is built with a semi-curved shape.
Comments: This shoe is a nice light weight shoe that is comfortable out of the box. The toe box is very roomy. Because of the larger toe box this shoe has caused blisters for me since day one. I have about 50 miles so far on this shoe and I will not wear them anymore. Someone with a wider foot may find these more appropriate.

Silky Hair!!!I'm African American with natural hair. I have hair that is 4a/4b/3c (yea it looks crazy) and this flat ironed worked on ALL THREE types of my hair. I flat ironed my hair, rolled sections into ropes and pinned it up. When I took it down my hair was wavy, shiny and silky. My hair not only looks silky but it FEELS soft and silky. I didn't experience hair loss as with other flat irons. To keep my hair moist after flat ironing it I use a little coconut oil. Tip: to turn on the infrared you have to push the power button once after turning the flat iron on.Jan 30, 2010Nana / TexasHAIR TYPEAfrican American

Horrible Don't Buy Burned Off My HairI HAVE HAD MANY GOOD FLAT IRONS THROUGHOUT THE YEARS, THE NEW AND OLD SEDU, THE PING, THE CHI AND THEN I BOUGHT THIS ONE ABOUT A MONTH AGO BECAUSE I READ GOOD REVIEWS ABOUT IT AND EVEN GOT TO TEST IT OUT AT A SALON AND FELL IN LOVE WITH IT. IT WAS WORKING GREAT IT WOULD LEAVE MY HAIR SHINY AND SILKY, I WOULD SOMETIMES CURL MY HAIR WITH IT OR STRAIGHTEN IT UNTIL TODAY I DECIDED TO CURL IT AND I HAD IT AT 230 DEGREES (450 IS THE MAXIMUM HEAT SETTING IT GOES UP TO) SO IT WASN'T THAT HOT. BEFORE USING THE FLAT IRON I ALWAYS USE A HEAT PROTECTOR ON MY HAIR. AS I WAS CURLING MY HAIR FOR THE FIRST MINUTE IT WAS FINE WHEN I GOT TO THE NEXT SECTION OF MY HAIR I HEARD A SIZZLING SOUND I QUICKLY PULLED THE FLAT IRON AWAY AND TO MY DISBELIEF THE STRAND THAT I WAS CURLING SHRIVELED UP AND BURNED OFF. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO NOT BUY THIS FLAT IRON UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR HAIR TO BURN OFF. I'VE STRAIGHTEN MY HAIR FOR YEARS AND THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED I TAKE REALLY GOOD CARE OF MY HAIR AND IT WAS REALLY HEALTHY EXCEPT FOR THIS ONE SECTION OF MY HAIR.Jan 25, 2010Vanety

I Might Never See My Curly Hair Again!This iron was everything the reviews has said it to be! Super hot and super fast! I have been straightening my hair since I was 14 by ways of chemicals and heat but now I can do less damage with just this baby, I can even let my hair dry curly and I don't need to blow it straight and THEN iron. I have Puerto Rican curls, just so there's a comparison. Haha. I just air dry and Iron and its great. Definitely recommend, I hope to test our their blow dryers and hope they have the same effect!Jan 23, 2010Melissa Gonzalez / New Jersey

Unreal!When i first tried it, I didnt turn on the infrared setting, I just started using it and I thought it was pretty good. I thought it was as good as my Sedu but not necessarily better. When I turned on the infrared setting I was AMAZED at how perfect it made my hair. It glides through my hair and leaves it SO shiny. Its definitely the best iron I have ever owned.Jan 21, 2010Kate / San Clemente, Ca USA

Amazing!!!I never write reviews but this time I think I need to write something about this wonderful flat iron. After reading a lot of different reviews for it and doing my extensive research (like I always do) I decided to give this iron a shot..I gotta tell you that when I tried it I was amazed by the outcome I got...My hair is extremely shiny and soft. I have to tell you I have the FHI and the Sedu which I think is a great iron also, but this one gives the hair such softness and shine that I wish everyone could get one!!!Jan 19, 2010Wendy / Hicksville, New York, USA

Amazing Straightening Iron!!!!I love this straigthening iron it is the best by far. I have really thick and frizzy hair with this flat iron I just have to run it through my hair once and it makes it perfectly straight! Other flat irons that I have used I normally have to run my hair through it 2 or 3 times. I highly recommend the Croc 2 Infrared. This is also awesome because it is the first "green" straightening iron!Dec 28, 2009Dez

Shockingly The BestI usually do not write reviews but after reading all the ones for other products and in the end not really being that great Everyone should know about this one. I got the Solia and returned it(rated the best) it burn my hair and did not make it that straight just poofy gave my hair split ends. My hair dresser told me about croc. I wasn't sure about the "infrared" and the plates as there is no real information about it. I have dyed blond curly hair that will frizz. there are 3 diff plates I thought maybe the titanium plate would burn my hair, plus the 1'' looked a bit small. I put the heat on 330. my hair has never been straighter shinier or softer. It took me less time and the tips do not even look split from the heat. Best flat Iron I have ever used. You will not be sorry.Nov 25, 2009Kelly

AmazingI just can't tell enough good things about my Croc. It's amazing. I have biracial, curly, frizzy, coarse hair. This iron makes it incredibly straight and gives hair incredible shine, unlike any other expensive flat iron I have used. This is a superior flat iron. I am surprised enough people don't know about it. I'm officially spoiled.Nov 19, 2009Violet / New York

La-la-love This Iron.Did I mention that I love this iron? I had my Superstar for about 4 years and it was great. Recently it popped and fizzled out and I was on the hunt for a new flat iron. I read all the reviews I could and settled on the Croc 2 Infared 1". At first, the box said that it was supposed to go from 200-450 degrees, but my iron started at 280. I called the company (who are very nice and answer the phone right away) and asked them what the low temp is supposed to be. They said it was 280, which is what matches what my iron says. They thanked me for letting them know the box is wrong and that they will correct it. I then tried straightening my hair. I'm an Asian Caucasian mix with wavy/curly medium textured hair. The Superstar did alright, but with this iron only being on 320, my hair is like LIQUID GOLD!!! My hair is super soft and EXTREMELY straight. I didn't know my hair could get this straight and look so healthy at the same time!! It's pretty cold out today, so I will test the humidity, frizzy factor after being outside for a while, but I'm pretty sure my hair will remain luxuriously straight!! I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT. Highly.Oct 30, 2009Dawm / Los Angeles, Ca

In contrast to Closed's Fall 2012 collection, which incorporates subdued splashes of colored denim and separates, the Winter collection kicks it up a notch with bolder and brighter blues, magenta (an emerging trendy color right now), softened greens and purples, which dot the men's collection. For the women, expect to find bronze and silver jeans along side their colorful gem colored jeans. Of course, you can sift through their requisite collection of indigo and grays for winter—all in slim and skinny fits—but don't you think a splash of color adds spice to your wardrobe?

I was in a seminar recently that taught a guiding principle of Charles Spurgeon, the great 19th-century English preacher: "In everything, make a beeline to Jesus". For me, that means that I've been trying to slow down and be thoughtful about the things I do, the food I eat and even the way I read the Bible and pray; to make sure my life is orbiting around Jesus, not myself or anything else. When reading the Bible, I'm asking myself, "What does this teach me about Jesus?" In prayer, I'm listening instead of talking. While giving up certain foods, I'm seeking to depend on His strength, instead of my own. In every activity, I'm looking for Jesus. This can be difficult, to shift my thinking to Him instead of myself, but it's right. Next Sunday, we will be celebrating Jesus' resurrection, the most pivotal event in the history of humankind. Let's seek to make Jesus the most pivotal force in our lives, then watch and see what He will do in this world through us.

This set of boxes is my time machine. I open it and I travel a good 7 years and 1 month back to a day when I went shopping for glass bangles, to match the 5 odd sarees I would have to wear for the different religious ceremonies during my wedding. A cousin came along, and I can still remember matching the colour of the bangles to the colour of the blouses, and taking them out into the sunlight just to make sure that the shade was exact. I remember the tinkle of the bangles as I very gingerly, tried them on for size. I remember how carefully and effortlessly, the shopkeeper wrapped them up in rectangular newspaper bits and arranged them neatly in these two boxes for me to take home.
I remember how I stuck a strip of masking tape and labelled them 1 and 2 with a marker. 1 for the bangles to be worn on Day 1 of the wedding and 2 for Day 2. I remember how I designated one cousin to be the one to hand me the bangles when I needed them. I can look at the colours now and tell you which set I wore with which saree and for what occasion. Months after the wedding, I remember how carefully I packed them up again for the long 20 hour journey to America to start my married life. These bangles are not just a relic from my wedding, but a frozen reminder of the person that wore them then. I remember the wild excitement of starting a new life, the nervousness of living with new people, a place for my dreams to come to light and see if it matched up to the reality.
I don't wear them anymore, because I would hate to see a single one of them break. So I keep it safe and secure in these two boxes, stashed away in a bigger box, and then set in a corner of the closet. From time to time, when I take the time to clear out the clutter and air things out, I find these boxes again. And I unwrap the newspaper covers and look at them wistfully, thoughts and memories flowing through me. I delight perennially in the dazzle of colours before my eyes and just this once, take them all out of the wrappings and feel them dangling from my fingers. I arrange them prettily in the boxes and take a picture to see them in another way. When I am done, I once again begin the cumbersome process of wrapping them up in the newspaper, my skill in no way matching that of the shopkeeper who first handled them. Once they are snug and secure, I put them back inside the box. After one last look, I close the lid and put it back into the bigger box, that goes into the corner of the closet. It will be safe there till the next time I take it out to connect with a bygone time.

Experimental Filmmaker/Artist Cauleen Smith at REDCAT
REDCAT, Downtown Los Angeles
"Deeply empathetic yet often lyrical, Smith's constellational approach to filmmaking parallels Sun Ra's freestyle compositions, while reawakening the political possibilities of black experimental culture." -- Art in America
Still: Black Utopia LP (for Sun Ra)
REDCAT, Mon April 15 - 8:30 PM
Black Utopia LP (for Sun Ra)
Los Angeles Premiere
Premiered at Chicago's threewalls artspace, Black Utopia LP is a deeply original off-shoot of the years of research artist and filmmaker Cauleen Smith devoted to Afrofuturism, a cultural movement that mixes science fiction, fantasy, non-Western religion and Afrocentrism. Chicago legend Sun Ra (1914-1993) and his Arkestra were a key figure in this movement. Smith produced over 800 35mm slides: images of objects found in archives, recorded in contemporary Chicago or appropriated from occult, astronomical, and historical sources. The slides are projected in a 90 min performance over two sides of an LP she recorded – a collage of lectures, rehearsals and live performances by Sun Ra, mundane ephemera, as well as commissioned contributions from Chicago artists Krista Franklin and Avery R. Young

The Leafs Nation big board: Top Forwards
Cam Charron
June 21 2012 09:57AM
(Brad White/Getty Images)
Furthering up on our Defenceman/Goaltender "Big Board" from earlier today, we look now at the forwards on our list, at least one of which will be available at #5.
Using the collective analysis of Corey Pronman of Hockey Prospectus and Craig Button of TSN, I pieced together common things said and written about each prospect, along with what we ought to like and not like about the perceived talents of a hockey player. There are three centremen and three wingers on this list, and we're trying to find elements in these players' games that will make them good pieces at the NHL-level. With such a high pick in the draft, two-way play is at a premium.
Here are TLN's top forwards, ranked 1-through-6:
#1 - Nail Yakupov, Sarnia Sting (OHL)
10/06/1993 - 5'11" 190
Common threads: "He has the ability to push the tempo up the ice and keep defenders on their heels, but he's probably even more dangerous at a standstill with high-end agility" "arguably the best skater in the 2012 draft. It's a blend of speed, power, quickness and agility that threatens" "excellent sense and can make plays that make him very challenging to keep in check" "his hockey sense is very good, with the creativity and instincts that tend to have him steps ahead of the pace at the OHL level"
What I like: Speedy, playmaking goal-scorer who was always dangerous when he was on the ice.
What I don't like: He won't be available at #5.
#2 - Alex Galchenyuk, Sarnia Sting (OHL)
02/12/1994 - 6'1" 198
Common threads: "An excellent understanding of all the critical elements of the game" "true strengths lie in his puck skills, vision, and overall possession ability" "also dangerous on the cycle with a big body and a good physical work ethic" "assertive with his body and he plays in traffic well and gains advantages 1-on-1"
What I like: A big centreman who may be able to crack the Leafs this season and play between Phil Kessel and Joffrey Lupul. Or, a big centreman that they can develop for another year.
What I don't like: Coming off a year of injury always raises questions. Will that affect his ability to be physical?
#3 - Filip Forsberg, Leksands IF (Swe-1)
08/13/1994 - 6'2" 181
Common threads: "His frame is pretty muscular for a 17-year-old born in August, which is visible in his puck battles and how well he is able to control the puck" "he's assertive in establishing his presence and gaining valuable space for himself" "another weapon Forsberg has is his shot" "his shot is hard and accurate and he can score from 35-40 feet"
What I like: Less like his namesake than people expect, I like the idea of a guy who sets up along the wall and has the ability to either drive the puck to the net or shoot it from the circle. It makes him a good powerplay weapon as a guy who can work high or low.
What I don't like: Not a centreman. You hear a lot of his playmaking ability, but not so much his defensive or puck-possession abilities.
#4 - Tuevo Teräväinen, Jokerit (SM-liiga)
09/11/1994 - 5'11" 165
Common threads: "He's the kind of player who scouts destribe as 'a player who sees everything'" "above average finishing skills" "calm in the eye of the storm patience" "an uncanny ability to remain calm, poised and fully aware of his options" "360 degrees vision"
What I like: His age. If he's this good as a guy who was four days from the cut-off, imagine how good he'll be with that extra year of development.
What I don't like: Size, of course, and finishing ability.
#5 - Radek Faksa, Kitchener Rangers (OHL)
01/09/1994 - 6'3" 203
Common threads: "Pretty well-rounded player who doesn't have a clear weakness" "cut from the mold of a classic centre" "can create offence in multiple ways, with his playmaking, his shot and his willingness to engage" "plays very well in defensive situations" "very good dependability in the defensive zone" "can kill penalties effectively"
What I like: Big, tough minutes centreman with the potential to be a complete player. My take is that he is quite NHL-ready, since you can slot him into a depth slot without having to worry about whether you're misuing his talent.
What I don't like: A lower ceiling for sure, and doesn't display offensive flair just yet. Strikes me as more of a "safe" pick than a "home run" pick.
#6 - Mikhail Grigorenko, Quebec Remparts (QMJHL)
05/16/1994 - 6'3" 200
Common threads: "Because of his size and wing span, he is extremely effective defensively" "can control the flow of a hockey game seemingly at will" "combination of tools that allow him to make unique plays" "unique blend of skill and size" "a very good passer who makes plays on the move" "above-average finisher" "advanced two-way thinker"
What I like: If he comes as advertised, he's an NHL-ready two-way forward who can step in and contribute immediately on either the first or third lines. You don't want to necessarily draft for need, but the Leafs could really use a top-line 'C' right now.
What I don't like: Andrey goes over the concerns in a lot of detail here. Perceived as a guy who dogs it and isn't too interesting in winning. These are recent developments in North America but have been presumed in Russia for a longer time. He's a bit of a wild card and if Brian Burke decides to choose him, I hope he's done all his homework in regards to the "age" question and the commitment issue.

Police: Repeat offender robs pharmacy, fights officer
BEAUFORT, CARTERET COUNTY - Police in Carteret County said a man seeking pain pills robbed a CVS pharmacy Friday night.
The Beaufort Police Chief said that when police found the suspect, 34-year-old Jeffrey Kevin Hunnings, near the scene, Hunnings tried to run over an officer.
The robbery happened at the CVS on the 1500 block of Live Oak Street in Beaufort, police said.
Hunnings walked into the location at approximately 10:30 p.m., with his hand in his pocket, making it look like he was armed, authorities said.
Hunnings demanded Oxycontin, a powerful pain drug, police said.
Hunnings has a Hollis Drive address in Blounts Creek in southern Beaufort County.
After Hunnings allegedly fought with the officer who caught him, the officer subdued him until backup arrived, police said.
Hunnings allegedly took several of the pills between the robbery and the time of his apprehension.
Hunnings was out on bond at the time of the robbery after being charged with the robbery of a pharmacy in Pitt County in 2012.

The numbers were shocking when they came out last year: since 2005, more than 500 million sensitive records have been breached, according to the Privacy Rights Clearing House.
Thats half a billion records.
And its been a year since we those numbers were figured. With regular headlines on data breaches, those numbers certainly havent gone down in the past year.
When you take proactive steps to prevent identity theft, it can be frustrating to realize you may still be at risk because of the companies that have and store your personal information.
More than 329 million of those breaches were the result of hacking or malware, payment card fraud (like the use of a skimming device) and intentional breaches by insiders, the PRC reports.
Affected data has ranged from names, addresses and birth dates to Social Security numbers and financial account numbers.
So what do you do if youve been caught up in a data breach?
First, dont jump to any conclusions. You need to be sure youve really been exposed to a breach. Identity thieves have been known to scam victims by sending fake email alerts, posing as financial institutions, hospitals, retailers and even the government. The emails claim your information has been compromised and ask you to log in to a website to verify or update your info by entering it again.
Most companies or institutions will notify you of a breach by snail mail, not email or even phone. Once you know that a breach has occurred, the PRC recommends you:
Unfortunately, security breaches come with a tremendous potential for harm. In the wrong hands, your personal identifying information can give identity thieves the power to really mess up your credit report and score.
If youve been caught up in a data breach, its important to act quickly to protect your good credit standing.

Under a new (and still somewhat confusing) league policy aimed at giving teams an incentive to encourage good behavior from their players, the New York Jets face a fine as a result of the four-game suspension imposed on quarterback Erik Ainge.
The new policy, which came to light in the wake of the Pacman Jones suspension, applies when a franchise has a second player suspended for off-field conduct in a given league year. Because running back Jesse Chatman was suspended at the start of the season for violating the policy regarding anabolic steroids and related substances, Ainges suspension triggers the fine.
The Jets, per the formula announced in the wake of the Pacman suspension, will be required to pay one-fourth of the base salary that Ainge will lose as a result of his suspension. Since hes earning the rookie minimum, the amount of the fine is low; one fourth of his four-game fine equates to a single game check.
Based on a base salary of $295,000, the fine will be $17,352.94.

I purchased a used side flush toleit, the kind that flushes out the back wall and down the outside of the house. Inside The tank has no visable water, just a big black ball shaped valve that takes up most of the space.When ever it is flushed, water shoots out of the top. I know it isn't supposed to do that. Is this part replaceable, what is it called, and should I just buy a new toliet.They cost 500 and up so I'd like to repair if possiable.

Player types: Conclusion, and in defense of the "low-event" superstar
Cam Charron
October 16 2011 09:18AM
Well, after a couple of weeks of research and organizing and sorting, we got six basic standard "player types" that are sorted between "high- and low-event" players that I'll be using for a little bit more of my analysis on the Nations.
If you missed it, those six player types are:
The Two-Way Forward
The Defensive Forward
The Offensive Liability
The No-Way Forward
The Defensive Liability
The Offensive Forward
Pigeon-holing hockey players into groups wasn't particularly the purpose of the series, but it's nice to know that about 75% of the players listed were probably the ones who fit into a certain category. The purpose of the series is more to be able to discuss hockey players in more qualities than "good" and "bad" but more in a sense of what they can do right.
Certain players are useless with the puck but are tremendous at preventing shots. Since one goal for is equal to one goal against, this makes a player who is bad at defense but an offensive juggernaut the yang to the more defensive one.
I've often used the phrase "handicapped by superstars". Certain General Managers are under pressure to pick up established hockey players. Two recent examples of this come from Philadelphia and the New York Rangers:
In Philadelphia's case, under pressure to lock down a star goaltender, Paul Holmgren gutted the remainder of the Flyers' core including their key players who played tough minutes to be able to sign Ilya Bryzgalov. While the team is left with an impressive slew of offensive performers, none are battle-tested in their own end. The Flyers could have been more efficient with their ressources by seeing that Brian Boucher or Sergei Bobrovsky actually had similar statistics to Bryzgalov, and the cheaper improvement would have been Tomas Vokoun who signed a cheap deal in Washington.
The Folly of Sather
For the Rangers, much was made of their big-name signings in the pre-lockout era to forwards such as Eric Lindros, Bobby Holik, Jaromir Jagr, Pavel Bure, Alex Kovalev and Martin Rucinsky. Despite the narrative ideal that states "you can't just sign superstars to win a championship" the Rangers were actually quite good at scoring goals throughout that period, but their inability to find players to play defense hurt the team and they consistently allowed well more than they scored and missed postseasons as a result. The Rangers have returned to this tenet, and instead of bolstering the defensive unit around Henrik Lundqvist and finding cheap alternatives for the forward group, they went out and signed Brad Richards who is not a player with strong enough underlying numbers to justify his signing at the price they paid.
"Win with the nobodies and the fans showed up, and the nobodies became stars," wrote Michael Lewis in the 2003 classic Moneyball. "Lose with stars ... and the stars became nobodies." Efficiency is key in assembling a hockey team and what's important is finding exactly which guys to use in the right situation. In my bizarro fantasy world of four lines, knowing that it's virtually impossible to get 12 plus-players every night, you have to separate. Give your top line easy minutes sheltered by a third line that can eat up tough minutes. The second line should be the best combination of two-way players and hopefully they can break even. The fourth line is your group of small minutes players who will keep their heads above water defensively so you at least don't give anything up. They don't have to be stars. You can make the playoffs and win a playoff round with Sergei Kostitsyn as your leading scorer, provided you also have David Legwand and Jerrod Smithson eating up tough minutes. Is it flashy? No. Is it effective? I would say so, and teams have to work to find the players who will succeed in those types of roles.
One of the issues with my recent analysis, or any statistical analysis, is that there are still a lot of variables that are left unaccounted for. Offensive shot quality leads to more goals, but we do a shot differential plus/minus. We stack players from different teams up against one-another, but we have no easy way of telling the effect of either the player in the system or account for the bias from that team's home scorekeeper. Detroit, for instance, doesn't record many missed or blocked shots. Tampa Bay block a lot of shots, which warp their Fenwick numbers. New Jersey have a tight defensive system that leaves Brian Rolston and Henrik Tallinder as apparently two of the top defensive players in the NHL.
Is that quantifiable? The one sure measurement we have in hockey is that of the goal. The shot, block and missed shot are subjective measurements. New Jersey was the ninth best team in goals allowed last season, and, by watching Martin Brodeur, we can know that he wasn't particularly terrific. It's safe to say that New Jersey is still a good defensive team. Are Rolston and Tallinder the best at defensive play within the system? Yes, the question is whether they are the best overall, independent of the system.
I'm not sure a relative measure would attack that conundrum. It makes no sense to punish a player like Manny Malhotra because Ryan Kesler is also a good hockey player, just how it makes little sense to champion Mikhail Grabovski because of the poor play of Tyler Bozak. Instead, I'm attempting to get around this, breaking apart the numbers and seeing what happened on the ice when a player was on: where the puck was and what pace was the game. From there, we can determine whether a player was successful in that role.
Splitting the Corsi or the Fenwick number apart makes sense, because every shot for or against will be submitting itself to the same biases. A shot for in Detroit may mean a different thing than a shot for in Anaheim, but I have to think that a shot for in Detroit is equal to a shot against in Detroit. Splitting the Corsi number to the parts that make it up allow us to determine what happens when a player is on the ice. If they have a high amount of offensive and defensive chances while they're on, they're more likely to be a "high-event offensive" player. The reverse means that they're more likely to be a "low-event defensive" player.
Consider that many of the high octane scorers in the league ended up as either "defensive liabilities" or "offensive forwards" in this analysis and the ones who didn't, in the "two-way forward" group or "no-way forward", were still on the "high events" side of the graph. It is not until R.J. Umberger, tied for 49th in goals, does a "low event" player make it onto the list of top goal scorers last season.
Tracking the Invisible
The un-tracked "goals prevented" statistic would therefore fill up with more "low event" guys. We can make a reasonable case for Brian Sutherby or Blair Betts as strong players, or Boyd Gordon, David Steckel, David Clarkson and Derek Dorsett as having legitimate value. These are all cheap players who don't give up many shots via the standard data pulled from NHL.com. The more you adjust for the variables, the more you can discover about these hockey players, and they're so good because you so don't see them and what they do well. For a low-event guy, you never see what he does well, because it doesn't tangibly exist.
Take two defensemen. Let's assume that one gives up two scoring chances and four outside shots against, while the other gives up two scoring chances and two outside shots against. The second defensemen had the stronger game, but he didn't "keep the majority of the shots to the outside" like the first one did. Without expressly counting, we can't tell how many actual shots were taken against whom and deal with only our impression of the game.
So, cheers to the low-event players and the unsung heroes who play for near-free and soak up the tough minutes for the stars. Grab a Jarrod Smithson and turn Sergei Kostitsyn into a superstar. Alex Ovechkin's most important teammate this season may not be a linemate, but quite probably the low-event two-way forward in Joel Ward. Adam Hall, Nate Thompson and Ryan Malone were key to preventing goals in Tampa Bay last season and they responded by turning from one of the worst in the conference to one of the best in a span of a season. Meanwhile, two lone bright spots in Calgary last season were Tim Jackman and Curtis Glencross, low-event guys who opened up ice, but the Flames forwards were swallowed up by variance at the wrong times.
Superstar protection can come in the form of a goon, but, in the new, numbers-oriented NHL, it may become the low-key guy who eats up the tough minutes without allowing much against. Keep an eye out to see how these players are deployed throughout the season, and hopefully we'll be able to tack on more information as coaches start to give more offensive zone time to the star, high-event forwards who can do something with it.
Superb work, Cam. Seriously great stuff.

great read. i have two thoughts:
one, as an avid fantasy hockey participant, i'd love to see a list of these strong, "low event", tough minutes guys so that i could perhaps target their scoring teammates who may be flying under the radar (finding this year's Sergei Kostitsyn, perhaps).
two, one thing you said concerns me. my understanding of what makes corsi and fenwick so desirable as statistics is that the greater pool of events make them more effective than simply using goals. more events = reduced noise, right?
but then we are limiting events to only while a particular player is on the ice, and maybe only during even strength, and heck, maybe only when the score is close. if we further narrow our analysis by the rink they're playing in, are we still ensuring that we maintain that advantage of more events?
just a thought. mostly i'd love to see that list!

Although part of the draw of advanced stats is that they do provide larger event pools, the major draw is that they provide a more comprehensive representation of how good a player is. This is done via the removal of a great deal of randomness from the stat (which both goals and +/- contain to a significant extent) as well as taking greater context into account.
This is just supposition on my part, but I think it would be difficult, to say the least, to filter corsi/fenwick events to such an extent that you no longer had a reliable sample from which to draw over the course of, say, a season.

Accu Cull Tournament Weigh Bag
The Accu Cull Tournament Weigh-In Bag makes weighing in and transporting fish as easy as possible - on the angler and the fish.
Featuring an internal, removable mesh bag, you can simply pull the mesh liner out with the fish in it, and set the mesh bag into the dip tank so fresh water can circulate through it easier while waiting in line. A built-in handle design also helps you carry the bag without dragging it on the ground or having to walk awkwardly to the scales.
No more having to dump water out and pour it back in with the Accu Cull Weigh In Bag System. The "weigh master" can even use the mesh bag to weigh fish in so the fish are less stressed from being handled. Less handling, less mess and less time the fish are stressed - all reasons why the Accu Cull Tournament Weigh-In Bag is the bag you should be taking to the scales.
Dimensions: 23" x 23"

Comments: I won this bag through an online giveaway Accu Cull was doing. I used it all of last year, and let other club members borrow it for weigh in. It has zero leaks. Every other bag I tried or have seen at weigh in has some leaks, not this one. the mesh inner liner is nice for removing the fish. Great product.
From: Ryne: Illinois 12/19/16
Comments: This bag is a great design. The inner liner made weighing in very easy and less messy. I just pulled the inner liner out with my catch inside. I didn't have to dig around the bag trying to get my fish out. Also, I still had all my water in the main bag. This is great because after weighing in, I put my fish back in the main bag and transported them back to the lake. I really can't say anything bad about this product and would highly recommend it if you do tournaments
From: Shane: Crestview, FL 8/14/14
Comments: I have been unhappy with several bags before trying the Accucull weigh-in bag. It is so well thought out. It keeps the fish in the very best shape for continued life after release and is extremely well built. I just am amazed how well designed this quality product performs. It gets my highest recommendation!

"Madi's goal made her our 15th goal-scorer this season, in all my years of coaching I have never seen anything like this," commented head coach Becky Hogan. "And it doesn't end there, we have a lot of kids making assists and putting up stats across the board."
The Thunderbirds struck first in the 30th minute when Yost sent a high cross from the left side where Brich was able to get up and head the ball past the Eagles goalkeeper to make score 1-0. Then just a few minutes later Yost made another pass, finding Wood this time who finished with a shot to the far post, putting the ball into the right side of the net to extend the advantage to 2-0.
"Chandler is one of out smartest players," explained Hogan. "The other team gave her a little time on the ball and with her savvy she was able to pick them apart."
Southern Utah went on to tack on another score in the 82nd minute when junior Christine Meehan sent a free kick to the right side of the box where it was fired back across the front of the goal and into the net by freshman Shelby Green. That score would set the final count at 3-0 as SUU picked up its first true road win of the season.
"We practice at a high level every day, but in games sometimes the youth of our team shows," said Hogan. "Today that didn't really happen. We stuck to our game plan and just played within ourselves."
The Thunderbirds recorded ten shots on goal while holding the Eagles to just three and held a 5-1 advantage on corner kicks. Brich's goal was her team-leading fourth of the season while Green picked up her third score and Wood notched her first. Meehan's assist was her team-high third of the year. Sophomore goalkeeper Tessa Christensen made three saves to record her first career shutout.
"Right now we need a brave presence in goal, someone who will sacrifice their body," stated Hogan. "Tessa is a true competitor and gives her max effort on every single play. That has been inspirational to the players around her."
Southern Utah finishes up the season with another road game this Sunday as the team visits the University of Montana for a one o'clock matchup. The Thunderbirds were eliminated from the postseason earlier in the day after Idaho State's win at North Dakota. Coverage of SUU soccer is available on www.suutbirds.com.

Servicers Monitor Regulators Who Are Watching Them
Mortgage servicing market insiders are monitoring regulators with the same attention the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the Office of Mortgage Settlement Oversight, the Department of Treasury and other federal and state legislators are monitoring mortgage banks in general and mortgage servicers in particular. The impact of this dynamic is significant and ongoing.
Since 2007 when the volume of delinquent mortgage loans increased to unprecedented levels, while surprised and unprepared, servicers started to reinvent their business and adjust. Today, besides that core adjustment servicers also are routinely challenged by regulators.
This year and in 2014 nine mortgage servicing rules recently issued by the CFPB will go into effect. The impact is big because, according to insiders, while servicers have been changing their operations and adopting new technology to catch up with the new reality, there still is a lot to do this year and the next so they remain in compliance.
At the MBA's National Mortgage Servicing Conference in Dallas, Mark Fogarty, editorial director of the mortgage group publications, Amilda Dymi, managing editor, Mortgage Servicing News, and Evan Nemeroff, managing REO reporter, Mortgage Servicing News, sat down with industry insiders Ed Fay, CEO of Fay Servicing, John Vella, COO of Equator, and Loren Morris, general counsel and chief compliance officer of Retreat Capital Management, to hear, among other things, about their reaction to these rules.
While agreeing that servicers basically have a year to comply, which ought to be enough time, the panelists emphasized that starting right away is the right way to go. And while they admitted servicers may have made some mistakes during the onrush of defaults and foreclosures, they feel basically servicers want to do the right thing and will if given a chance.
Fogarty: The CFPB has issued nine mortgage servicing rules and they're pretty detailed, and I'm just wondering what your initial reaction is to them, how's it going to affect the servicing business?
Fay: As a servicer I can address them somewhat. There's a combination of different things in the rules, and the most important piece is that I don't believe there's a total of rules that will make fundamental changes to how we do our business, with the exception of some of the single point of contact pieces. One of the biggest changes is just simply trying to make customers more aware of what's happening with their situation—for example, with the ARM changes, adding an additional letter, 90 days instead of 45 days. So those changes for smaller servicers aren't a big deal, it's just adding another letter cycle. But if you're talking about being a large bank or a servicer, how do you know a letter cycle is not a simple process? It will be difficult to implement some of the changes. Luckily they gave us a significant amount of time to make the implementations.
Fogarty: Not until 2014 that it comes into full effect, correct?
Fay: Yes. So again, we have plenty of time to make the changes, which I think—again, it can't hurt. I'm not sure how much fundamental impact a lot of the changes will have, but it certainly can't hurt.
Vella: There's going to be a big impact. Even though it's 2014, it's going to take a lot of time for a lot of these servicers, even though they've been putting some of these rules in place. Still, by the time 2014, before we know it, it's going to be here. And to implement it in a large organization, so many changes, in addition to the CFPB rules, all of the other investor rules and government rules that they've had to put in place, are still taking an impact.
The big piece, though, that's going to be required, coming from a technology space here, is the need for proper technology to manage the process, because at the end of the day, it's going to come down to compliance.
But in order to manage the compliance, you're going to need proper data collection as well as audit trails, and what technology will do with these rules, it will allow for the servicers to document every step of the way the process that they've put in place to ensure that when it comes time to do an audit, they can go back and look at things such as dual tracking and 30-day notice and have snapshots of those decisions, the times they were made, and the underlying rules and attributes behind it, so if audited, and with penalties potentially facing them down the road, the need for proper compliance across, with most of these people, multiple sites. A lot of them use third-party-outsourced companies, so the need to properly manage it and dispose of all of rules and get them out to all the constituents, have proper training in place, have proper controls for documents and data, technology's going to play a critical part in making sure that they're within compliance.
Morris: What we may be seeing is a reconfiguration of the servicing industry as a whole, moving away from the large servicers who may not find default servicing economical or in the best interest of their shareholders. So you're seeing the second- and even third-tier servicers as a specialty servicer or a subservicer coming into play, and that's probably good from a consumer's perspective as well as the industry's perspective in that you're going to have more high touch, which is the goal that the regulators are trying to achieve, is having a very high-touch servicing-orientated arena.

Normally we would attempt to write something really clever about the game tonight.
But seriously we aren't in the mood after that Shitanusly® craptacular display of Hockery we witnessed last night. We will be watching and we will be in attendance at the JL meeting.
But we can assure you of this, Edmonton Oilers Hockey Club®. The patience of the OilersNation -- i.e the patience of the good, hard working, honest folk who pay the bills -- is running low.
And some of these people are crazy.
They rioted on Whyte Ave.
And that was when you were winning.

As a board-certified gynecologic oncologist, I perform surgery to remove cancers of the female reproductive tract including ovarian, uterine, cervical, and vulvar cancers.
I use minimally invasive surgery such as laparoscopy and robotic techniques using the da Vinci Surgical System. I was one of the first gynecologic cancer surgeons trained on the da Vinci system, and I perform approximately half of my surgical cases today with this approach. The da Vinci robotic technique is most often used to treat uterine, cervical, and small ovarian cancers, and provides for a faster post-operative recovery. Among the procedures performed on the da Vinci include hysterectomy (removal of the uterus), trachelectomy (removal of the cervix), oophorectomy (removal of the ovaries), and/or lymph node harvesting.
For women with advanced ovarian cancers, I perform open abdominal surgery with tumor debulking that includes the removal of all large tumor masses. Tumor debulking requires a systematic and thorough surgical approach as this optimizes the outcome for women with this type of disease. The surgical management of ovarian cancer has been a specific area of interest for me over the years, and I have participated in numerous clinical studies focused on improving the outcomes for women with this disease. I understand that facing cancer, or even the possibility of having cancer, is a major challenge in a woman's life. With that in mind, I work to provide excellence of surgical technique with an individualized approach to each of my patients.
In parallel with my clinical work, I maintain a strong commitment to research in ovarian and uterine cancers. I have received competitive funding from the Gynecologic Cancer Foundation and the National Cancer Institute for my research in ovarian cancer tumor biology and developmental therapeutics. I also serve on national committees dedicated to improving outcomes for women with gynecologic cancers including the Society of Gynecologic Oncology Clinical Practice Committee, the Gynecologic Cancer Foundation Communications Committee, and the Gynecologic Oncology Group Ovarian Cancer Committee. I have received numerous awards for my work from the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology, The American Association of Cancer Research, the American Cancer Society, and the Society of Gynecologic Oncology.
Originally from Wilton, Connecticut, I graduated magna cum laude from the accelerated medical degree program at Boston University in 1996. I completed residency in gynecology and obstetrics at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, followed by a gynecologic oncology fellowship with specialized training in minimally invasive surgery for gynecologic cancers at Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York. Upon the completion of my training in 2004, I worked as a full-time gynecologic cancer surgeon at The Johns Hopkins Hospital, and I relocated to Memorial Sloan Kettering in 2007.
I spend the majority of my time at Memorial Sloan Kettering's Main Campus in Manhattan, where I perform all of my surgical cases. I see new patients on Tuesdays at the Rockefeller Outpatient Pavilion, Memorial Sloan Kettering's 53rd Street location. I also see patients at the MSK Westchester.

Most major health insurers offer plans that include MSK as one of their in-network providers. If MSK is in-network, it means all our doctors are too. Medicaid and New York State Medicare also provide benefits for care at MSK.Learn more
