I've "shared" an Anki deck for reviewing verb forms. It's ordered intuitively (or maybe just oddly). For those who know Anki, if you are interested, go to share decks and search for "Greek Verbs - Intuitive Inflection, Ver. 001" (Or type "nitz" in the search line and it should show). The deck description is below.
Regarding Anki, see B-Greek Post " viewtopic.php?f=28&t=1213
Deck Description
Review imperatives of all most types of verbs.
Review the inflection of Omega verb, παυω.
Special Features:
370 inflected forms
Imperative of all major types of verbs are shown, Thematic Omega, Contract verbs (x3), Regular Mi verb, -νυμι verb.
A full inflection of παυω is listed. The order of the list follows what I am theorizing would be a more intuitive way of learning the inflections. A string of verbs in the same PERSON is reviewed, rather than the forms of all persons within a particular tense, voice, mood. The learner will be able to keep one "actor" in mind as he learns the verbs. E.g. "he stops, he was stopping, he stops himself, he will stop, he stopped, he may stop."
Detailed description
Imperative of verbs: παῦσαι, τίμησαι, ποιήσαι, δηλῶσαι, θείναι, ἀναστῆναι, δοῦναι, & δῦναι and all forms in all moods of παυω.
The deck contains four parts:
[li]1. Introduction of the verbs (using the Aorist Infinitive).
2. All Imperative forms in all voices and persons.
3. The 1st Person Singular of παυω in all moods, tenses, & voices.
4. All other persons of παυω in all moods, tenses, & voices. In this section, the "Front" of the card will show a clue such as "ἔπαυον, καὶ σύ..." The "Back" of the card will then show the answer, "ἔπαυες."[/li]
The inflection of παυω was taken from Crosby/Schaeffer "An Introduction to Greek"
The Imperatives and Infinitives of other verbs was taken from Smyth.
Typos – please report to email@example.com
ιστημι was taken from Smyth and changed it to ανιστημι. Mistakes (esp. accents) are more likely with this verb.
In order for this deck to be truly intuitive, I think two things could be added:
Audio for all forms.
Comic book like sketches that would "define" the form.
If anyone edits and uploads a new version of this deck, please change the version number. E.g. Ver. 002, 003, 004, etc.

"I always was a big fan of Aerosoles.... But not these particular shoes. How can a shoe have all seemingly "right" pieces yet be so off?. The shoe is too deep - the foot goes too much forward making it very uncomfortable to walk. Because of that the arch support is virtually non-existent, so all weight is on the ball of your foot. Looking at the picture you would think that sole is sufficiently thick. and cushioned. But just making a few steps around a house felt like walking on bare floor. Unfortunately, they go back"

Disappointed again!
"Love, love, love these shoes, loved the price, problem: not comfortable. I need to be able to stand all day in my shoes for work. High wedges always work for me. I wear an 11, but it seems sometimes an 11 is not always an 11! Especially on higher end shoes. These shoes ran short and little narrow for my foot anyway. Maybe an average foot would be fine, usually a medium width is fine for me. Anyway as much as I loved these, back they went. I SO wish they were comfortable."

Photo courtesy of Carah Ong Whaley. The Presidential Inauguration is an important civic ritual that legitimizes election results and represents a peaceful transfer of power. Last week, I attended President Barack Obama's second Inauguration with the purpose of providing a citizen's eye-view of events for RTT followers. While there was a certain measure of pomp and circumstance surrounding the 57th Inauguration, it was off-set by the diversity of the crowd and the President's liberal, populist appeal. On the Sunday before the public swearing-in, I attended one of the many Inaugural events being held by non-profit organizations, PACs, lobbyists, and consultants throughout the DC area. These events ranged from black tie balls to more subtle affairs with the purpose of both celebrating political victory and raising more money. Members of Congress made cameo appearances and gave brief speeches to thank the organizations and supporters for helping them get re-elected. They were also already beating the drum to raise for the 2016 election…the never-ending campaign. As one member of Congress revealed at the event I attended, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee recently sent out a memo telling all members of Congress that they are to spend four hours per day fundraising. By any measure, that is quite a bit of time to devote to fundraising, especially when Congress began 2013 with its approval rating at 14%. How can Congress actually engage in the hard work required to legislate, govern and serve constituents when so much of their time is expected to be devoted to raising money for the next election? Doesn't this system only further ingratiate Congress to special interests? At an event I attended, Angus King (I-Maine) emphasized that we are in a unique era of hyper-partisanship and polarization. As a political scientist, I wanted to point out that it's actually not so unique. In fact, there have been many periods in American political history when the parties have engaged in deep struggles over the role and direction of government. But his broader point was worth noting. King noted that he was elected not to engage in partisan politics, but to make every attempt to get government working again. Many other politicians and members of the media also made their cameos. The more liberal media, Senators and members of Congress pressed supporters to rally for a more liberal agenda in President Obama's second term and to gear up for battle in the 2014 mid-term election. From their speeches, there would seem to be no end to partisan bickering in sight. I also had the opportunity to speak with state party leaders in DC attending the events and inauguration and to ask their perspective on the election. While I have been aware of ongoing tensions between the state party apparati and the President's organization (Organizing for America, now dubbed Organizing for Action), I was surprised at how deep-seated some of the resentments remain. Several state party leaders I spoke with noted that while the OFA was technologically advanced, the people it sent to the field had no organizing experience. Many expressed that OFA staff were highly paid (receiving greater salaries than state party organizers), but didn't know how to do their job. Instead, state party leaders complained they did the real work of organizing and simply sent the information up the chain. It remains to be seen whether the President's organization will help the state and local parties in the 2016 election with the voter information they collected from across the country, but already state and local leaders are pressing OFA to share. With press pass in hand, I headed to the public swearing-in early on Monday morning. At our press briefing at the Senate Dirksen building the previous day, we were told to arrive by 7 am in order to get through the gates and avoid the problems experienced at the 2009 Inauguration, even though the crowds were not expected to be as great in number. Indeed, only about one million were on the national mall this year, compared to the 1.8 million that turned out for President Obama's first Inauguration. Furthermore, according to Gallup, only 65 percent of respondents said they watched the ceremonies live (38%) or saw news coverage of them (27%), compared to the 80 percent who did in 2009 (60% watched live and 20% saw coverage). Recall, though, that the 2009 inauguration had the largest attendance of any Presidential Inauguration in U.S. history. While many attended the 2009 Inauguration because of the historical significance of electing the nation's first Black President, this year was no less significant, and was perhaps even more so for some in the African American community. I was particularly struck by the diversity of the crowd at the Inauguration, especially considering how many groups represented historically didn't possess the franchise. The composition of the crowd also reflected the diversity of the President's electoral coalition. It was then unsurprising that the President's speech itself focused so heavily on the theme of equality from the opening lines. Obama began with lines from the Declaration of Independence, a progressive document of its time: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. But Obama expounded upon the principles of the Declaration, exalting the role of government in ensuring equality: Today we continue a never-ending journey to bridge the meaning of those words with the realities of our time. For history tells us that while these truths may be self-evident, they've never been self-executing; that while freedom is a gift from God, it must be secured by His people here on Earth. The patriots of 1776 did not fight to replace the tyranny of a king with the privileges of a few or the rule of a mob. They gave to us a republic, a government of, and by, and for the people, entrusting each generation to keep safe our founding creed. Although likely inaudible for those not present, the crowd visibly responded to the opening lines with contemplation. And the tone was set for the remainder of the speech. There were loud cheers when the President returned to the theme of equality of outcomes for women, the gay community, immigrants and voters. In essence, Obama used the inaugural to "go public" with a liberal theme for his second term. And from the crowd's response to Obama's mention of his liberal programmatic agenda for the second term, including gun control and climate change, it was evident that this Inaugural served more as a pep rally than an event intended to bridge the divide between differing philosophies of governance. Indeed, a Washington Post/ABC News poll found that 51 percent approved of the President's Inaugural address, 24 percent disapproved, and a quarter of Americans had no opinion of the speech. Broken down by partisan affiliation, more than eight in 10 Democrats approved of Obama's address, but at least three in 10 Republicans and independents had no reaction at all. Meanwhile Gallup found that 65 percent of Americans who watched this year's ceremonies or saw news coverage of them rated Barack Obama's inaugural address as excellent (33%) or good (32%), compared to 81 percent who did so in 2009. Obama's Inaugural address certainly attempted to set a more aggressively liberal tone for the second term. In the coming weeks, we expect to see him flesh out the themes of the Inaugural in a programmatic agenda delivered in the State of the Union Address. While the base may rejoice in a reinvigorated champion for their cause, what can actually be achieved in the long-term will depend to large degree upon the ability of the President not only to employ executive action in pursuit of his goals, but also to negotiate with Congress.

Skip to comments.NFL Coaching News: Mike Leach to the Oakland Raiders?
Posted on 01/04/2010 9:35:04 PM PST by Paleo Conservative
Today has been nothing short of amazing it terms of NFL news. Things have been especially entertaining here in the Washington D.C. area, where the Washington Redskins always keep you busy during the offseason. However, this bit of news comes from the other side of the country, all the way in Oakland.
According to sources at the Dan Patrick Show, the Oakland Raiders are very interested in former Texas Tech head coach Mike Leach. While it would be a surprising move, it would actually make some sense.
Current Raiders' coach Tom Cable has been under fire all season, beginning with an incident in which he may or may not have broken the jaw of his assistants during training camp. Combine that with a losing record and the revolving door at quarterback, and you have a man who could be on his way out.
In Mike Leach, you also have a man who is surrounded by controversy. His issues stem from dealing with kids at Texas Tech.
The Raiders have proved in the past that they are not afraid to dip into the college ranks for a coach. In Mike Leach, they get a quirky guy, but a pretty good football coach. Leach is best known for his innovative, pass happy offense that has lit up the Big 12 South for the past 10 seasons. It is no secret that Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis loves the vertical passing game. From that perspective, hiring Leach should be a match made in heaven.
Let's just hope this pass happy college coach fairs better than the last one who made the jump to the NFL. Remember Steve Spurrier's NFL experiment? Washington Redskin fans do.
HA HA HA, the Raiders continue to entertain in a "rubberneck at a car accident as your drive by" kind of way.
If Leach's solution to college kids with bad attitudes is to lock them in a shed, how's he going to handle overpaid prima donna pro athletes?
Imho Leach would fit into the zaniness in Oakland.
But he would need experienced coordinators, and Oakland has become a career killer, even talented coaches such as Rob Ryan could not hack it in the Asylum and wound up in Cleveland were he is about to be fired...along with "mangenious".
He wouldn't have to put up with enabling fathers who lobby for playing time for Jr.
Here's a match made in heaven....
Leach might be successful there if he could lock Al Davis in a broom closet while personnel decisions are being made.
It would certainly help him with his pirate fetish...
It would certainly help him with his pirate fetish...
interesting idea
I would love this move - Coach Leach is a great coach
He also attended Cal Poly SLO, so this is kind of his neck of the woods...
Leach didn't lock anyone in a shed. Thats BS by disgruntled player.
Thanks for the ping. This is so crazy it's crazy or so crazy it's brilliant. Leach has a gift with getting quarterbacks to perform and he moves the ball around well. Also, in Oakland, he could keep using "Guns Up!" as his motto.
and lived out in Hell.
Cutting costs where ever you can.
He'll fot right in -— course all he has to do is stomach Al the butt Davis
You don't think Al Davis is more over bearing than any other person on the planet???? You don't follow Raiders football then
Right so the sworn affadavits are just a pack of lies right?
Doesn't matter to me. Leach and Al Davis deserve each other
...and it wasn't a shed. It had a Plasma tv! It was dark, and air conditioned, but that is good for concussions!
Biggest buffoon other than Olberman
Leach's gimmicky offense, his lack of a coherent defense and his penchant for going on 4th down all over the field would spell disaster in the NFL. Not to mention that Leach's offense is almost the antithesis of the "vertical passing game". It's almost the "horizontal passing game" although the last success the Raiders had was when they used the West Coast Offense which is another system that emphasizes short passes.
Leach would certainly be an entertaining thought while in Oakland but he might also make the worst transition from college to pro since Steve Spurrier.
Al Davis has always been pretty good at finding talent.
Jerry Jones...
well you got me there.
Our jerk is a bigger jerk than your jerk!
Have to disagree, lonestar. I think Jerry Jones supports his coaches and players very well. He just cuts them loose when they fail to perform or cause problems (Terrell Owens for example). ....Steinbrenner who owns the Yankees is probably the most overbearing owner of a sports team, but considering what enormous salaries he pays the players and coaches I can't say that I blame him. It's his money that he uses to try to buy the World Series every year.
Mike Leach is being crucified in the press. From TV news and articles I've read, the James kid showed up on the sidelines in street clothes and shades during practice. The coach had the trainers take him to a darkened training room and there were a couple of trainers in the room with him. It was to keep him out of the bright light since he had a concussion. .....That's my understanding of the situation.
Tom Landry? That's why I hate JJ....that, and he made fun of Dallas and Texas when he bought the Cowboys.
I haven't like the Cowboys since JJ bought the team
I loved when Jerry Jones and Jimmy Johnson had their clash of the egos...and Johnson quit.
Jerry Jones is an obnoxious jerk in my book.
I agree with your Leach opinion. My guess is that Leach had had all he could take from that little James a$$hole and his father who was always calling.
I agree, it would be a great match, right in there with the Raiders image.
And the Raiders right now aren't far away from being a respectable team, they beat some good teams, but were woefully inconsistent. I like Gradkowski as a QB, with Leach, he could become even better.
I'd be happy for Leach *IF* Davis let him do what he wanted in terms of player personnel. No way Leach would keep jamarcus Russell. Since Davis didn't like Tom Cable's remarks against Russell, I doubt Leach will be a serious contender. Davis will only hire a coach who thinks Russell is a good QB. Good luck with that!
They are a pack of lies. The sworn affidavits by the trainer and doc contradict earlier statements. James' own video shows he lied about it all. He said he was locked in with no chairs. His own video shows chairs to sit in as well as a door that had the lock from the inside.
I believe a sworn affadavit. There is a consequence for lying under oath. Any of the other stuff that was said before is just so much lip flapping.
And for the record I don't care about Mike Leach and The Aggies one way or the other
Obviously. Its the Red Raiders, not Aggies. In Texas, you'd be lynched for that mistake. ;)
BTW, Leach never told the trainer to put him in that garage. He said put him in a dark place. The trainer chose the location.
If he wants the Raiders to succeed, he'd be better off locking the owner in the shed, not the players.
Perfect, rintense. Thanks for the picture and ping.
The Raiders won't be able to achieve much until 1. They get rid of Russell and 2. Davis either dies or retires.
LOVE IT! Thanks
As if I care about Texas. Go back to your religion. Football is truly all you care about. Have a nice life
Boy are you an ignorant fool.
Haha - love they have pinked up his jersey and added the Hello Kitty symbol! Dang I need to learn photoshop!
That's fine - Texas won't cry that you don't care - we have more than enough whining liberals and girls. Have a nice life.

Hush Puppies Havanna

Comfy Shoe
"I needed a late summer/fall shoe for work and stumbled across these Hush Puppies online. They are perfect! The short wedge heel is perfect for me as I cannot wear high-heeled shoes. They are comfortable and I can walk in them all day without any complaints. They look great with a dress, pants, and even shorts. The only thing that I don't like is the insole cushion, but I knew the "risk" going in. I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about; light-colored insoles that change color depending on the moisture of your feet that can come from sweating or oils/lotions. Also, even though I wear a 9, I purchased a 9.5 and they were a perfect fit. Other than that, it is a great shoe!"

I have seen a lot of similar requests on forum, tracker and from our local users. So I believe there is a need to develop more gradebook settings for the User report.
- Show/hide Averages
- Show/hide Feedback
- Show/hide Range
This was already done for Percentages:
MDL-15887, so it is just another improvement.
As usual, those can be forced (hidden from instructors) on the admin level, to make the gradebook Settings page less clutter if needed.
Overall I believe that we need to have Force and Advanced checkboxes for almost all settings done by the admins, as it makes system a lot more flexible.

yes! yes! yes! yes! please add this loooooong feedback really clutters up the students' gradebook view.
Possible solution for displaying feedback? I wanted to hide feedback in the user report as some user reports are unweildy and cluttered when there is a lot of feedback.... and because the user can access the feedback via the activity itself I thought that hiding the feedback column wouldn't be an issue. However, when I did this I realized that another problem may present if the teacher creates a manual graded item and adds feedback here. Currently the only place for a user to view this feedback is via the user report. conundrum What would be IDEAL (I think) is if a feedback link could be inserted into that column where the user can opt to open a new window to view his or her feedback if they wish while still maintaining a neat and tidy gradebook view.
It would be great to be able to choose among possible columns for the user report. Admins should be able to set defaults. Teachers should be able to override them.
knock, knock
Any chance this can be moved in priority? Seems to be relatively easy to implement, and such feature is being asked for a lot.
I'm quite familiar with the code on this (we implemented it on the laeuser report) so would be glad to pick it up for 1.9x and 2.0 unless there's some disagreement.
I should be able to get to this shortly. Hopefully. As ever, other things frequently come up. Robert, if you are able to start before me by all means go ahead
I've put this together but with one hanging question... calculating averages is processor-intensive and the existing code would need to iterate through that for each User report on-screen. Do the interested parties believe as I do that average could be included only when one user report is being requested?
I would agree
p.s. I have noticed that in 2.0 User report the Range column is no longer shown (with no way to allow it back). I guess something changed in the code. Just want to note that it is a useful column for students to see.
p.p.s. I really like Susan's suggestion for displaying feedback in a pop-up.
Here's the patch and a zip of the files changed for this issue for 1.9x (built on 1.9.10 20101025 but the patch applies cleanly and workably to all the other versions of 1.9 I have in-house):
- grade/report/user/lib.php
- grade/report/user/settings.php
- grade/report/user/styles.php
- lang/en_utf8/grades.php
- grade/report/user/index.php
- This makes eight columns configurable for the user report:
- Weight
- Points
- Range
- Percentage
- Letter grade
- Rank
- Average
- Feedback
- styles.php has been changed to allow for feedback formatting and centering of cell contents (can be edited to admin's desires)
- have forced range display to points (real) – doesn't make any sense to me any other way
- when you display the "real" value this way it sure makes me want to deal with accurate point totals and ranges – but, alas, I've left that off (we've been using accurate point totals and ranges for a year now)
- averages: show up on individual user reports only not when all the users' reports are paginated; Also, doesn't make much sense to me that average decimal display should be a preference but I left it at that... just couldn't bring myself to leave the ranges relying on a preference for decimals so that's configurable
Will get to work on 2.0
Removed a couple notices I'd not previously detected. 2.0 is right behind.
Based on 2.0 RC2
Same specs as 1.9 above but slight changes in averaging code as currently does some funky things when you "login as" a student (wants to to re-enroll in the course and actually creates another role_assignment record). Otherwise, very little change from 1.9 to 2.0.
Hi Andrew... wondering if you'd be so kind as to review the code submitted for this issue in the hopes it might get in the next release? Cheers.
Hi Robert. I'm halfway done reviewing this. I'll finish up tomorrow. Thanks for the work
Note: This is all about your 2.0 patch. Haven't yet looked at the 1.9 version.
Attaching my version of your patch. In the interests of speed I've made changes myself rather than us going back and forth a bunch of times. Let me know if I've broken anything or if I've misunderstood your intent anywhere.
When you introduce new settings you need to put up the version number. That will cause the admin to be prompted about the new settings and defaults to be inserted. Otherwise you get a lot of php warnings about $CFG->grade_report_user_showpoints, for example, not existing.
I've altered the new settings (and one of the old ones) so that the defaults mirror 1.9. Having all the columns hidden by default will lead to confusion.
Re grade_report_user_showaverage_ur. Read aloud that's "grade report user show average user report". Not sure its necessary to repeat the words user and report. Also, in Moodle code, try and stay away from acronyms. They tend to be a bit hard to decipher especially for programmers for whom English isn't their first language.
Points? You're American aren't you? Throughout the Moodle code we use the terminology grade item and grade. For consistency within the code I've substituted the word grade for points so it matches the rest of the code.
I've shortened the setting descriptions and removed repetitions of words from the strings. Strings like that are of course very subjective however I generally believe that the less text on screen the more likely it is that a user will actually read it.
I've also removed all the code you commented out.
I believe you were accessing the wrong preference in grade_report_user::user_avg(). If you look in grade_report::get_pref() the preference name has 'grade_report_' added to the beginning. If you just supply 'showaverages' the preference you actually get is 'grade_report_showaverages', the preference for the grader report, and not 'grade_report_user_showaverage', the preference for the user report. Supplying 'user_showaverage' makes it work. Can you please check the other instances of calls to $this->get_pref() and make sure that they are getting the preference you really want?
Also, within grade_report_user::user_avg() I've shifted everything to be within the if block. Trying to do as little work as necessary if the average isn't going to be displayed anyway.
That's it
Andrew, your 2.0 patch appears right and the patch installs with error except for the styles.css file. Thanks for the updates and corrections.
Hi guys,
Robert thanks for the work so far .
Andrew cheers for tiding it up for 2.0, I've just been reviewing the patch and in general everything looks good, however there are a couple of things I spotted within grade_report_user that should be cleaned up before committing.
- There are unused globals that should be removed.
- Change {$CFG->prefix}tablename to {tablename}
- line 550: should probably be using a recordset for both performance and because $sums is temporary.
- Line 573: It looks like $ungradedcounts is an unused var~query.
- It's probably a good idea to get Helen's ideas about the strings used for the new settings, particually the descriptions.
- PHP Notice: Undefined property: grade_item::$avg in moodle/grade/report/user/lib.php on line 391, referer: moodle/grade/report/user/index.php?id=7
Once those have been fixed up it has my +1, although we should probably just get Martins +1 for the new settings.
The only other thing worth mentioning is that when viewing the user report for all users it doesn't show the averages, I've seen the comment that it is done that way for performance reasons however I think we should either remove the column completely or turn it back on, otherwise it looks as though there are no averages.
Sorry I should clarify, are you intending to fix both 1.9 and 2.0 or just 2.0?
I was thinking about 2.0 only but http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=162754#p718956 it looks like 1.9 is actually broken right now so will have to backport I guess.
I've fixed all of those items except for this one. "Line 573: It looks like $ungradedcounts is an unused var~query." It is actually used its just that it was putting the result of the query in $ungradedcounts then referencing $ungraded_counts. Unfortunately correcting that has broken the calculation of averages Figuring that out now.
I'm also trying to come up with something to avoid recalculating the averages for each grade item for each user when you're showing all users.
New patch attached. I believe all the issues mentioned above are resolved.
I gave up on caching the averages when multiple user reports are requested at once as the average take into account groups so they may vary from student to student. A cache of averages would have to be quite clever (and would possibly even want to store stuff in the database)
Note that as we speak we are switching from CVS to Git. This code will have to be reviewed and dealt with through the new git-centric process. I'll update once I have a better understanding of exactly what that is.
Code is available from git://github.com/andyjdavis/moodle.git branch is
MDL-20617 Its for 2.0. After we're happy with this in 2.0 I'll backport it to 1.9.
I do not like the huge joins there at all, it should definitely use the new enrolment table to restrict the scope of the join...
The SQL in 2.0 is going to be very different from 1.9, I would personally vote for working on problems from 2.0 only because you might hit nasty performance issues or regression in 1:9.
I've committed a really really simple fix to a 1.9 branch that just makes the range column re-appear. Diff is at https://github.com/andyjdavis/moodle/compare/MOODLE_19_STABLE...MDL-20617_1-9#
Will fix up 2.0 version now.
Having trouble switching to the new enorolment table. The original query looks like this
SELECT gi.id, COUNT(u.id) AS count
FROM mdl_grade_items gi
CROSS JOIN mdl_user u
JOIN mdl_role_assignments ra ON ra.userid = u.id
LEFT OUTER JOIN mdl_grade_grades g ON (g.itemid = gi.id AND g.userid = u.id AND g.finalgrade IS NOT NULL)
WHERE gi.courseid = 2
AND ra.roleid in (5)
AND ra.contextid IN (11,3,1)
AND g.id IS NULL
GROUP BY gi.id
(role.id==5 is student)
Replacement query looks like
SELECT gi.id, COUNT(u.id) AS count
FROM mdl_grade_items gi
CROSS JOIN mdl_user u
JOIN mdl_user_enrolments ue ON ue.userid = u.id
JOIN mdl_enrol e ON e.id=ue.enrolid
LEFT OUTER JOIN mdl_grade_grades g ON (g.itemid = gi.id AND g.userid = u.id AND g.finalgrade IS NOT NULL)
WHERE gi.courseid = 2
AND e.courseid = 2
AND ue.status = 0
AND g.id IS NULL
GROUP BY gi.id
However for me this is always out by one. I believe its including the teacher. Is there anyway, based on the enrollment tables, to tell teachers from students or do I need to pull in role assignments anyway?
1/ only enrolled users are supposed to have grades, all grades for not-enrolled should be dropped at some time; when unenrolling users we now delete the grades; in any case you should not add grades for users that are not enrolled
2/ there is a function in enrollib.php that gives you the necessary SQL code and params
3/ gradebook uses nasty roles hack "graded roles" at the moment, it should really be graded capability now; in any case this is for displaying reports and exports only - teachers do have grades in gradebook because they are enrolled
Im sorry Petr but Im not able to find the function youre referring to in enrollib.php. What is it called?
Also, when I use the enrollment tables they seem to report everyone as student. For example this query says everyone is a student.
select ue.userid, r.name from mdl_user_enrolments ue
join mdl_enrol e on ue.enrolid=e.id
join mdl_role r on e.roleid=r.id
where e.courseid=2
"gradebook uses nasty roles hack "graded roles" at the moment, it should really be graded capability now"
Do you have an example of where this is done? I can see example of the use of "graded roles" then building a query accessing the role assignment table but not this graded capability you mention.
I've committed a version that uses the enrollment tables to git://github.com/andyjdavis/moodle.git branch
diff: https://github.com/andyjdavis/moodle/compare/master...MDL-20617
Doesn't seem quite right and the results are slightly different to those generated by using role assignments.
After some conversation in dev chat I think I know how to rewrite the queries.
re this "when unenrolling users we now delete the grades" That seems to be a really bad idea. See
Hi Andrew,
I've run out of time to actually test this in a site, I'll do that Monday, Ihave had a quick look at the code and spotted the following minor points:
line 104~111: White space alignment
line 161: Comments need to be updated to reflect columns again.
line 561~570: The joins in that query look real unconventional, do they make sense?
line 209~211:
line 302~319:
line 333~335:
line 339~408: Nesting issue, not sure if this is Netbeans munting the code or not... worth checking.
Have a good weekend.
Ive pushed fixes for all of those things except the query at line 561. Note sure whats up with all the code formatting/alignment issues. Trying to figure out a less unconventional query that gets the same data.
update: Query reworked to hopefully be a little clearer. Added some description of how the query works. Also, it now uses null final grade instead of grade_grades::id to find ungraded grade items to catch both grade items with no grade_grades entry and ones that have an entry but with no final grade.
Cool changes look good thanks Andrew, hehe one more thing sorry should $SQL be $sql?
I'll leave that up to you, peer review == passed
1.9 fix in PULL-32 diff URL is https://github.com/andyjdavis/moodle/compare/MOODLE_19_STABLE...MDL-20617_1-9
Note that the 1.9 fix just readds the range column. The controlling of the showing and hiding of columns has not been backported to 1.9
Failed integration testing. Comments below are from Petr:
1/ missing $CFG global in fill_table_recursive() in lib.php
2/ hardcoded English string: "'OVERRIDDEN: "
3/ missing spaces after comma file settings.php and lib.php
4/ non-standard indentation in SQL selects
5/ potential problem with averages is that it is sensitive information and students should not be allowed to see it by default - if you periodically get the average you may reconstruct grades of all other users even before they are allowed to know their own grade
6/ the average is calculated from all enrolled users which includes teachers too, there is missing join into the role assignments for the graded roles (please note the grader report should be fixed too because it uses only the role assignments workaround from 1.9)
7/ you are calculating avgs even when setting is disabled (why not do it simply in constructor based on setting and preference), also you might not calculate the avgs when columns for it are printed
8/ where can the student set the showaverages preference? they can not access the grader report prefs
This code requires version bump for initialisation of new settings, it should be noted in the pull request.
Rejecting, sorry, there seem to be too many problems, the biggest is the SQL graded users query which should be imo standardised throughout the whole gradebook (either use the legacy way or new way).
Think thats all dealt with apart from the missing spaces after commas as I cant see where you're talking about. You're going to have to give me a clue.
Diff is https://github.com/andyjdavis/moodle/compare/master...MDL-20617
1) fixed
2) fixed
3) I can't see where you're talking about. Line number?
4) I'm not sure what this standard SQL indentation is that you mentioned. Do you have a link to a document describing it? I looked through the code and our SQL formatting seems to be highly irregular (to put it politely). I have however attempted to reformat it according to what I suspect you mean.
5) The potential for students to estimate grades based on the average of submitted grades is a potential issue. However, averages are off by default. Teachers turn them on at their own risk. I'm not sure this is really a terribly significant issue. We could add some sort of limit like averages are only displayed after at least 10% of the class have submitted the grade item. Its another db query.
6) Ive added the join for role_assignment. These queries were using role_assignment originally. What exactly is the point of using the enrollment tables if you are going to have to use role_assignments anyhow?
"(please note the grader report should be fixed too because it uses only the role assignments workaround from 1.9)" Please dont piggyback new bug fixes on existing ones just because this one reminded you. I've raised
MDL-25769 to fix the grader report.
7) I have moved the call to the function into the constructor. I have also renamed user_avg() to calculate_averages(). The average is only calculated when the average column is going to be displayed. See the first few lines of the function now known as calculate_averages().
8) Students don't currently have any capacity to choose what columns are shown in the grade reports. The teacher sets up the reports. The students just view them. You can put in a feature request at http://tracker.moodle.org
"This code requires version bump for initialisation of new settings, it should be noted in the pull request."
Will do in future.
4/ congratulations, you have created yet another SQL coding style, please have a look at any new code from me or DML conversion code ( I have spent a lot of time trying to normalize the SQL coding style all over the place during the DML conversion) - for example accesslib.php, moodlelib.php, DML, DDL, DTM, most of enrol... If you want some guidelines see http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:DB_layer_2.0_examples
6/ you should update all reports to work consistently
7/ I expected you would check the setting and preference in one place and made "if and" condition and based on the result did the average calculation and also number of columns.
Looking at the patch I can see many spaces with inconsistent whitespace - in ifs, comments, etc.; it makes me happy when you do it consistently in new code - it is not critical of course
I love watching this "back-and-forth" except my fear is that most of what's being rejected is carryover from the original 1.95 gradebook and were someone to submit the whole gradebook (even as it appears in 1.9.10) it would NEVER get through integration testing. Just wait until you try to fix it though... at that point I might humbly suggest revisiting my early remarks about the need to simplify the gradebook.
4) I have altered the formatting (replaced tabs with 2 spaces and indented where conditions after the first one to line up with the first one) as appears to be the way its done based on http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:DB_layer_2.0_examples If this isn't satisfactory you may have to resort to actually explaining the correct way to do this.
6) Ok, Ive closed
MDL-25769 and have just fixed the grader report as part of this item.
7) Not entirely sure what you mean here. There is a setting. There is no user preference involved that I'm aware of. $this->showaverages is set in the report constructor so using that.
Hi Andrew (et all),
surely I'm wrong but I've been re-reading the history of this issue and the proposed pull requests along the last weeks... and I really think that we should try to split this, in order to be able to "accept" some parts to go upstream.
I mean, if this issue is about the user report why the proposed patch includes changes to the grader report and (partially/wrongly...?) change the way to get the "gradeable" users?
Why not, simply, provide one pull request covering exactlty this issue (user report) and delegate the rest to other issues, that will have their own review/test cycle? If we continue adding and adding bits here all the time, doing it to grow and grow with IMO, unrelated issues.
Just a side comment from an integrator POV, ciao
I agree Eloy, two issues would be better:
1/ fixing all "graded users" places
2/ user report improvements
the SQL coding style is still different, all the SELECT, WHERE, GROUP BY are to the left, the rest is to the right of an imaginary vertical line.
PULL-53 rejected with this comment from Petr:
Did you grep for the "gradebookroles" string? There are several more places that should be updated at the same time imho. Sorry, rejecting again.
"Why not, simply, provide one pull request covering exactlty this issue (user report) and delegate the rest to other issues"
I entirely agree. I did in fact split out one of these other tasks however Petr insisted they be done right now. I can't raise new issues and add them to the current sprint therefore have no choice but to do them as part of this issue as long as Petr continues to insist that I fix unrelated parts of gradebook immediately.
Amidst the onlooking eyes of a community that greatly respects Moodle, with high aspirations for its future, the handling of this issue bodes poorly for the "new, more receptive" system of code review (imho).
re this "Did you grep for the "gradebookroles" string? There are several more places that should be updated at the same time imho. Sorry, rejecting again."
I can either do this as part of this issue or open another issue which will be scheduled for a future sprint? What is it to be Petr?
Petr, Andrew,
what is really the problem with this issue, I think you both are agreeing (above) about get this issue (exclusively the user report improvements) here and create new issue for the "graded users" fixes, isn't it?
Or does the former require the later or something like this? If nobody object, plz fix the report here, and create exclusive PULL for that and then fix the "graded users" thing (note I really don't know what the hell that is, lol) and create another PULL for that. Sounds simple, though surely I'm missing something. Please comment if there is any problem about that (the split).
right now we are "learning as we do" with this new way of handling core stuff. Can you expose why it "bodes poorly" or why it isn't "receptive" in your opinion?
Note I'm not arguing at all, just asking, the most opinions/comments/feelings we have the better we'll be able to handle this in the future, just that. So any alternative way, objection, whatever is really welcome, IMO.
TIA and ciao
Also re "the SQL coding style is still different, all the SELECT, WHERE, GROUP BY are to the left, the rest is to the right of an imaginary vertical line."
Ive formatted the SQL the same as in http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:DB_layer_2.0_examples, the document you linked to as an example. A query from that document:
$sql = "SELECT f.course, COUNT(*) count
FROM {forum} f
JOIN {forum_discussions} d ON d.forum = f.id
WHERE f.type = :forum_type
AND f.course $in_sql
GROUP BY f.course";
Note, everything but the select, where and group by are indented. One of the queries in the submitted code for comparison:
$sql = "SELECT g.itemid, SUM(g.finalgrade) AS sum
FROM {grade_items} gi
JOIN {grade_grades} g ON g.itemid = gi.id
JOIN ($enrolledsql) je ON je.id = g.userid
JOIN {role_assignments} ra ON ra.userid = g.userid
WHERE gi.courseid = $this->courseid
AND ra.roleid $gradebookrolessql
AND g.finalgrade IS NOT NULL
GROUP BY g.itemid";
A read of the lonnnnggggg discussion here and the many forum discussions from which this issue germinated would lead even a casual observer to conclude that getting needed (and long overdue) functionality out to the community is of minor importance. Even though it is well voted-up, the issue is over a year old; the forum discussions are much older than that; code was provided for both 1.9x and 2.0 about three months ago and still we've been unable to see the issue resolved because a code reviewer has decided that other erroneous code in the gradebook, unrelated to the original issue must be fixed prior to it being approved. We are ALL just learning, but I must say that the learning I'm getting from this particular issue is to not count on important items like this being fixed in core in any usable timeframe. I'm not trying to argue but I'm serious when I say that in 2004 I got better response from Blackboard then I usually get with gradebook issues on Moodle – and Andrew is not at fault.
Robert, the code was submitted only a month ago (late November) if you factor in the Xmas break etc (not to mention the complete change in our processes and tools happening in there at the same time), and it is being dealt with. As detailed above, Petr's review has found a long list of small problems that would not have been caught before and would just have led to more subtle issues later on.
These seem to be dealt with so I hope to see these settings integrated in the next cycle.
I'm sorry, Martin – thanks for catching my exaggeration. The problem that Andrew alludes to and to which I expand upon is that a complete review of the gradebook code will invariably uncover immense numbers of problems for which waiting would postpone any real improvement indefinitely. I am in favor of a complete review of code in the gradebook and have faith in Petr's ability to uncover problems. However, I'm currently sitting amidst a group of twenty schools at a Hack-doc who are chartered with determining migration dates for 2.0 for a larger group of colleges in North America and we had one vote for Summer, 2011 – the rest are Summer, 2012. That leaves us hanging onto 1.9 for which it (feels like to me) fixes and enhancements are now receiving very low priority. I'm wondering if part of the learning process could be ever-increasingly stringent review of code so we don't suddenly go from where we were to where we want to be overnight and nobody gets any code changes approved that really matter to production sites?
I don't really see the logic in "some colleges don't feel like migrating to 2.0 yet so we should spend more time on 1.9" ... surely it means we need to spend even more time on 2.x to encourage them to move up faster? 1.x and 2.x code are quite different and spreading resources across them just slows progress in both.
WRT the gradebook I would love to see a complete review of the code but that of course can't happen for 1.9.x or 2.0 ... changes of that magnitude need to be in 2.1 or 2.2. Unfortunately at this moment we don't quite have the resources (Andrew is part-time on gradebook issues) though I'm working on that. I've had some people sort-of volunteer to take over this task (most recently SFSU) but none have progressed past the "we're interested" stage yet.
I'll start some discussions in the gradebook forum later in January when I'm back at work.
Ive split out the fix to the grader report and the other, not yet completed, gradebookroles related fixes. They will be done as part of
Petr, Ill need some sort of feedback from you about the SQL formatting. Not going to submit this for review again just to have it rejected.
Martin, your points are very logical but I still struggle with the reality that seems to be upon us – i.e.:
- I wouldn't DREAM of offering to help recode the gradebook amidst watching the struggles Andrew's going through just getting something simple through the "gauntlet"
- I'm becoming sheepish about even making strong observations anymore after the rebuff of
MDL-25718where my issue was "renamed" to make it look more appealing when, in fact my position of its seriousness is widely supported.
These things together are what cause me to question if, indeed the prevailing attitude will be more receptive. I certainly don't envy all those on the opposite side of the "new workflow" fence since it sure appears like there's a lot more work for the reviewers and core developers to do and a lot less code that will ultimately be submitted by non-core developers.
Andrew, please just make a new PULL request with the last version. Sam can integrate today.
After some conversations here about the very complex stuff going on in the gradebook, there seems to be two problems not really discussed on this bug yet:
1) revealing the class average to students can allow students (in some cases) to work out what grades were gained by other students. eg if only two students completed an assignment, and the average is 50, and you know you got 70, then you know the other student got 30. This is a potential privacy issue.
2) if any grades in the gradebook have been hidden by the teacher then the class average for an item in the gradebook may be inaccurate. The question is whether to include these in the average calculations or not. It's further complicated by calculated columns that may aggregate hidden and non-hidden items in inconsistent ways. A completely accurate result would actually involve a complete recalculation of the entire gradebook every time a user report is shown. (Please note that the quiz module will automatically hide/unhide items so this scenario is not as uncommon as it may seem)
Now, these don't affect all courses. And I know a lot of people would like to see these columns shown in the user reports so...
My proposal is to keep the patch as it is but to add help buttons to the "show/hide switch" (admin and course level) and also to the user report column to explain these two problems. So if you turn the average column on then you should at least be aware of these caveats.
The problem of the possible inaccuracy of the numbers is a separate bug, much bigger than this one and requiring some rewriting, which will probably have to be done in 2.1 or so.
How does this sound to everyone? Does someone want to suggest some help text?
3) If you see the real class average (including hidden grades) and know the number of students in the course you can calculate your grade from activity such as quiz with delayed release of grades. This defeats the purpose of hidden grades from activities completely (you just have to make sure that only you submitted the quiz during the last few seconds before/after refresh of user report).
Ive added help items describing the potential data leakage issue and the potential inaccuracy of the average if hidden grades are involved.
Hidden grades are now excluded from the average and rank calculation on the user report. More specifically, in the average, hidden grade items are counted as the grade items minimum grade. Its still possible for hidden grades to make the average inaccurate if the grade item is a calculated item which is dependent on a hidden grade item further down the line so I have retained the caveat in the help item.
With some git instruction from Sam I've squashed all the commits for this into one.
repo: git://github.com/andyjdavis/moodle.git
diff: https://github.com/andyjdavis/moodle/compare/master...MDL-20617_squashed
Thanks Andrew, it has been integrated now
Providing it passes the QA testing it will be in stable tomorrow.
Cool. Fingers crossed for testing. Thankyou everyone for your contribution. Especially Robert Puffer for the initial patch
WRT the complete review of the gradebook, I'd suggest complete separation of calculations from display making it easier to write custom reports knowing the calculations are just waiting to be "popped in".

This could be a fun game...
Here's Sean Penn arriving at LAX the other day. When I looked at these shots in thumbnail I initially thought it was Adrien Brody. This is not a compliment. If you have doubts about that, please enjoy the following commercial. If you've already seen it, watch it again. You need the laugh on a Monday.
Adrien Brody is total cheese. I get his involvement, totally. Gael Garcia must be poor. Which leaves Andre 3000 to blame. Because A3000 is too good for this.
And STILL...
STILL Brad Pitt's Chanel is worse.
Brad Pitt did it BECAUSE he thinks he's better than this.

A public meeting was held by the US Forest Service to explain a recent study of and recommendations for the Muddy Creek Drainage. Mesia Nyman said, "We want the public to know that this is merely an analysis and does not represent the proposal that the forest service will make. This study was done and these recommendations are what the specialists who completed the study are recommending."
"Hopefully with a great deal of public input over the next few weeks, the forest service proposal can be developed and begin the National Environmental Policy Act process by the end of February 2005," she stated. "Many of the major users have already been notified and asked for comments, but the general public has valuable opinions also. What we want is to have those comments."
Matt MECCAriello presented the document detailing the study. All roads and trails in the Muddy Creek drainage have been analyzed for five risks and two values. The risks analyzed were: archaeology risk; engineering risk; threatened and endangered species risk; aquatic resource risk; and wildlife risk. The values assessed were the recreational use value and the resources management value. Each road was also measured for length, functional class (arterial, collector, or local), maintenance levels and costs. The entire analysis was based on the findings of risk and value of each road and trail.
This project by the forest service is the beginning of a process to build a new travel plan for the forest service managed lands. Following the conclusion of this project, another portion, probably North of the Muddy Creek drainage, will begin the management plan process.
One road where there is a cause for concern is the Spinners Road which is a popular destination. Back in the 90s the road was re-signed to a 52 inch trail and full-sized vehicles are not allowed. Those on the Sanpete side maintain that this resignage of the trail was done illegally and that full-sized vehicles should be allowed. They maintain that the trail was built by Jeep vehicles and that those vehicles should be allowed to use it today, and the closure was not put through the proper processes.
The Rim Trail and Lower Rim Trail offers 13 miles of single track recreation and has high recreation value and it is recommended this remain open. One road on the lower Muddy has upset some people with its recommended closure. This is not a loop trail, but leads to a dead end.
The analysis was well received by the public and viewed as reasonable.
At a recent Emery County Commission meeting, Mark H Williams from the Southeastern Utah OHV club spoke about the proposed closure of the road up the bottom of Muddy Creek, number 042 on the analysis map. He said the trail should be kept open to allow people to access the fishing on Muddy Creek, where small fish are caught. Derris Jones from the Division of Wildlife Resources said they could support keeping the trail open if the ATV club was willing to help with trail maintenance and culverts in appropriate places. Williams said there is grant money available for such trail projects.
In Utah not many trails are designated as single track motorized. There are single track nonmotorized which includes mountain bikes, hiking, foot and horse traffic.
The Muddy analysis is not in a formalized NEPA comment period, but the comments being gathered will help formulate a final document which will need to go through the NEPA process. The project area contains several miles of ATV trails.
Following the mapping and computer modeling of the area, the specialists were given the information for verification. Anyone familiar with the Muddy Creek Drainage is encouraged to respond with comments and ideas. All comments must be documented either in writing or by email. MECCAriello stated that if anyone has questions or concerns about the maps or charts, they are welcome to call him at the forest service office in Ferron, 435-384-2372.
All of the maps and charts may be viewed at the office in Ferron or on the website: http:://www.fs.fed.us/r4/mantilasal. Once at the website, click projects and plans, then road analysis, then Muddy Creek drainage. Comments and concerns are due by Jan. 30, 2005.
An additional public comment and information meeting will be held at the Centerfield Town Hall, in Sanpete county, on Dec. 15 at 6:30 p.m.

HANDBOOK OF THE PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE: PHILOSOPHY OF ECONOMIC, pp. 641-690, Uskali Mäki ed., Amsterdam: Elsevier, 2012
Behavioral economics is the effort to increase the explanatory and predictive power of economic theory by providing it with more psychologically plausible foundations. Behavioral economics, which recently emerged as a bona fide subdiscipline of economics, raises a number of questions of a philosophical, methodological, and historical nature. This chapter offers a survey of behavioral economics, including its historical origins, results, and methods; its relationship to neighboring fields; and its philosophical and methodological underpinnings. Our central thesis is that the development of behavioral economics in important respects parallels the development of cognitive science. Both fields are based on a repudiation of the positivist methodological strictures that were in place at their founding and a belief in the legitimacy of making reference to unobservable entities such as beliefs, emotions, and heuristics. And both fields adopt an interdisciplinary approach, admitting evidence of many kinds and using a variety of methods to generate such evidence. Moreover, there are in fact more direct links between the two fields. The single most important source of inspiration for behavioral economists has been behavioral decision research, which can in turn be seen as an integration of ideas from cognitive science and economics. Exploring the parallels between the two endeavors, we attempt to show, can shed light on the historical origins of, and the specific form taken by, behavioral economics.

Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley was in Springfield Tuesday as part of a three-day swing through the state, launching her campaign to succeed Gov. Deval Patrick in 2014.
Coakley stopped by the Red Rose Restaurant in the city's South End greeting some elected officials and lunch patrons. She says she's ready to shed the perception during her failed 2010 Senate campaign that she took voters, including those in western Massachusetts where she grew up, for granted.
If elected Coakley would be the first woman to hold the corner office besides Jane Swift, who served as acting Governor from 2001 to 2003. Coakley says she will spend the next several months before the Democratic primary listening and talking to everybody. That would include Swift, a Republican who – like Coakley – grew up in North Adams.
"I have a lot of respect for Jane. I think she was a great public leader. And I just have not spoken with her recently about this race, but I intend to," Coakley said.
Coakley also made campaign stops Tuesday in Worcester, North Adams and Pittsfield.

"I got these shoes in nude for a dress with a lot of color-- so wanted something simple and elegant for my feet. They are insanely comfy heels and hold your foot in place well. Only remark would be they run small. I usually wear a 7.5, sometimes even a 7 in heels, and ultimately purchased an 8 in this pair. So keep that in mind when ordering. Other than that-- buy them while they still have them!"

Preview: Game #30 Lightning @ Leafs - Guy's questionable coaching
Cam Charron
March 20 2013 03:05PM
The Toronto Maple Leafs have lost five straight games.
Qualifier: The Toronto Maple Leafs last five games have all come against playoff teams.
Addendum: If the Toronto Maple Leafs are a playoff team, they'll have to beat playoff opponents.
Tonight they play Tampa Bay, a team outside of playoff position. The team has had a tough schedule of late, facing Boston, Pittsburgh twice and Winnipeg twice, and coming back from two 4-1 deficits to boot to force OTs.
Last time the Leafs faced the Bolts, they got off to a slow start, and Ben Scrivens allowed two sloppy ones in a 4-2 loss. You can read the recap from that game here.
The Tampa Bay Lightning are many things. They are an enigma, a team built on young stars, but frequently change their coaching tactics and waive useful players. Think of them like the Toronto Maple Leafs in a slightly deeper shade of blue and with a better minor-league system.

Numbers via Hockey Analysis and NHL.com
Here's the thing I don't get… what's happened to Tampa's powerplay? I watched their game against Philadelphia on Monday because I noticed that they have the lowest shot rate in the NHL with the man advantage, which is baffling considering the young talent they have.
It seems like the Bolts try too hard to force the perfect shot. I haven't found an analysis really deep on the issue (if you know a good Bolts blogger who has looked at their PP from an Xs and Os perspective, I'm all ears) but I liked this line on Raw Charge comparing their unit to a "bubble hockey game". There's little movement, and also difficulty to gain the zone effectively.
At even strength, Tampa are just as bad as the Leafs at controlling play, which is odd considering they were the third best team in the NHL in Fenwick Close in the 2011 season, when they also caught lightning in a bottle with a hot Dwayne Roloson and came to within one game of the Finals. Since then, they've changed their systems and the results aren't positive.
Bolts blogger Kyle Alexander summarized some of the issue:
@camcharron Its like he doesnt care about it any more. Bolts are outshot almost every game. Stresses scoring chances now.— Kyle Alexander (@kalexanderSM101) March 20, 2013
@camcharron Also, playing the 1-3-1 inflates possession metrics. They don't play it much any more.— Kyle Alexander (@kalexanderSM101) March 20, 2013
Guy Boucher gets some credit for being a pretty good coach, but I think he accomplishes "less" with "more" in his lineup than most other coaches. Coming into the season I saw the Bolts as an absolute force on the back-end with the addition of Matt Carle and a healthy Sami Salo to a group that included the monstrous Victor Hedman. While the loss of Carle is just one of the things that's stung the Philly Flyers this season, the Bolts aren't restricting shots any better without Carle in the lineup.
You should play the strategy that helps you inflate possession metrics. As with the powerplay, if you sit around waiting for the perfect shot, it ain't going to come.
Here were the lines last game. Mark Masters tweeted that Benoit Pouliot isn't back yet, and they will start Mathieu Garon, but the bottom six is a mixed and matched most nights:
Martin St. Louis - Steven Stamkos - Teddy Purcell
Cory Conacher - Tom Pyatt - Alex Killorn
Ondrej Palat - Tyler Johnson - Dana Tyrell
Ryan Malone - Nate Thompson - BJ Crombeen
Sami Salo - Victor Hedman
Eric Brewer - Matt Carle
Keith Aulie - Radko Gudas
Mathieu Garon
Anders Lindback
I've really liked what I've seen out of Alex Killorn this year, but confused as to why the team waived Adam Hall, who was an effective defensive winger for them. The usage chart looks pretty bleak, because the Bolts' best forwards have been seeing the highest Corsi Rel QoC as well, which sort of defeats the purpose of using a third line in heavy zone-matching situations to shelter your forwards. If you're running three centremen, you can at least give one line easy minutes, but that doesn't appear to be the case.
On "D", the saving grace is the Victor Hedman, Sami Salo grouping who play the tough minutes and get the best results. Other than that it's a bit of a firedrill most nights in the Bolts end and they give up a lot of shots.
Guy Boucher isn't huge on player match ups, preferring a zone match but it doesn't seem like many coaches have had issues getting their top guys out against Steven Stamkos. The Leafs should be able to get new top pairing Dion Phaneuf and Carl Gunnarsson lots of minutes against young Stamkos.
Interested to see where Jake Gardiner ends up? Looks like he'll be next to Liles:
James van Riemsdyk - Tyler Bozak - Phil Kessel
Joffrey Lupul - Nazem Kadri - Matt Frattin
Clarke MacArthur - Mikhail Grabovski - Nik Kulemin
Leo Komarov - Jay McClement - Colton Orr
Carl Gunnarsson - Dion Phaneuf
Jake Gardiner - John-Michael Liles
Mark Fraser - Cody Franson
James Reimer
Ben Scrivens
Masters says Reimer gets the start. Randy Carlyle has been flipping guys around in practice all week, but I think he'll stick with the units that started against the Jets. There's no other way to otherwise have Lupul-Kadri-Frattin together and they looked real dangerous on Saturday. (via Mirtle, Liles will play on the right side)
I'll have a full recap within 45 minutes to an hour of the game ending here at Leafs Nation.

Flames trade Tanguay and Sarich for David Jones and Shane O'Brien
Kent Wilson
June 27 2013 04:55PM
Word just came out this afternoon that the Flames dealt Alex Tanguay and Cory Sarich to the Colorado Avalanche for David Jones and Shane O'Brien.
The move isn't a surprise in terms of the player involved from a Calgary perspective. It has been clear since the end of the season that Tanguay wasn't too interested in being part of an extended rebuild and that the management wasn't too enmaoured with the player anymore either. Sarich, who was bafflingly re-signed last summer for another two years after spending a bunch of time in the pressbox, was a candidate to be moved as soon as the ink was dry on his new deal.
The return from the Avs is rather underwhelming. Jones is a 28-year old 6'2" winger who has twice scored 20+ goals in the NHL, including a career high 27 in 2010-11. He's not a high volume shooter, though, so his production is dependent on a relatively high personal SH%. His career rate is 14.7%, but with less than 500 shots under his belt, it's entirely possible we don't really know his true shooting ability and that number will come down a tad.
Jones faced top competition on the Avs last year and started a lot of shifts in the defensive zone. He also got buried with one of the worst possession rates on the team (-8.8/60 corsi rel), so it's safe to say that's not really his area of strength. He was similarly underwater the season previous despite much easier competition, which suggests Jones probably isn't a guy who is going to advance play very effectively. His contract stretches to 2015-16 at $4M/year.
Shane O'Brien is basically a slightly younger,
marginally cheaper (actually exact same price) version of Sarich. He's big, he's not terribly mobile and he's not going to score a lot of points. He's a functional middle tier defenseman who can bang bodies who probably shouldn't spend too much time on the ice with the other team's best.
The Flames need to staff the team next year and were desperate to deal a malcontent is what this deal comes down to. It's unlikely either Jones or O'Brien will play a significant role in the genesis of the Flames rebuild.
Quality - Thanks for the laugh!
More talented. Yet we finished ahead of them.
By three points with a -4 separation in goal differential and a virtually identical home record.
Statistically nearly indistinguishable. Does that negate the potential of their roster?
That doesn't even make sense? So you trade for a guy where you give a low value asset for a guy that showed he could score 20+ goals but got him cheap because he had a bad year in a lockout shortened schedule & injuries. The guy then has a good year scores like 20+ goals & then you decide you want to trade him? Am I missing something?
I am very much in favour of guys that play both ends and can score at even strength. That's why I like trading older poor possession power play specialists for young two way players. Disagree if you like, but there's no error in my logic.
Ok I guess we'll just disagree. If a player has his power forward game going & is scoring 20+ goals & is fitting on my team, I would rather keep him. My problem with your statement is that you have written off this kid before he has even played 1 game for the Flames. I try to be not so narrow in my thinking.

I don't think there's anything wrong with having an opinion on a player based on his possession numbers. It's just an opinion so it could change when i see how he fits in. Right now, he's not the type of player i'd be looking for.

|In response to Re: Old house - bad vent stack design?
To try to give you a better idea...
The vent stack comes down vertically from the roof, and ties into the toilet/sink/shower waste line under the floor in the bathroom. The vent line ties into the waste line where it is running horizontally, not vertically. The first floor bathroom (sink and toilet) tie into this waste line also.
Guess my best bet is to hire a pro and have them check it out. Any suggestions for good, reliable plumbers in the suburban Philadelphia, PA area?
Thanks again.

I also have an Eljer Aquasaver in my home - also in a half bath that gets a lot of guest use. It works just fine. Never have had any issues with it. Easy to install and no double flushes like we got with our Briggs gravity 1.6. I don't have any complaints. The unit is under warranty for 5 years and when I sent in my warranty card, I got an additional year warranty FREE. I did have a question related to understanding how the unit works and called the "800" number on the flush device. Their tech support service was very helpful. What an improvement over our 1.6 gravity style unit.

I finished earlier this month and mailed it to a friend whom I wish I could wrap my arms around. This seems so inadequate but is the best I can do at this time.
I am a plastic surgeon in Little Rock, AR. I used to "suture for a living", I continue "to live to sew". These days most of my sewing is piecing quilts. I love the patterns and interplay of the fabric color. I would like to explore writing about medical/surgical topics as well as sewing/quilting topics.

I am just so impressed. I've been trying to learn knitting for the last two winters and haven't gone beyond scarves or blankets. Socks mystify me.
Nancy Bush has an Estonian sock pattern in an Interweave Press book of sock patterns that I bought. I did a little reading on her other books and found she has been to Estonia and Latvia and chronicled a lot about their knitting. FYI in case that helps.
Your Four Seasons project inspired me to dig out an applique project I haven't worked on in ages; I am working on the blocks in assembly line style and hope some will roll off the line this year!
Kudos to you for making such a wonderful gift for your friend! I know it is going to mean a lot.
Celeste, thanks. I would love to see your work. Do you have a Flickr page or a blog or something? Please, let me know.
The next best thing to arms--I'm sure she needs it now. What beautiful work you do at home and on the job, and always all of it from the heart it seems.
Thanks, Judy. I hope it helps her just in even a small way.
This is truly beautiful. I love the fact that is wispy and makes me think of Irish folklore! You are soooo talented and your friend is so fortunate to be able to have a hug from you every time she wears it :) Another treasure.
The shawl is beautiful but the sentiment is even more beautiful. A friend knitted me a prayer shawl a year or so ago. I wrap it around me every day when I do my Bible study and I cannot tell you the feeling of peace that I feel because this friend cared enough to do this. blessings, marlene
Thank you, Jabulani and Margarie.
I don't have a blog or even a Flicker page, but am just started on Facebook. I should actually work on scanning some quilt photos to share either there or in email.
After I finish a wedding signature quilt for my niece this year, I'm going to make a Mariner's Compass quilt in batiks. The applique project is a really nice thing to work on in between; it's soothing. I totally swear by a small halogen light, a knockoff of the Ott light that I got at Staples for about $25. It makes ALL the difference in cutting back on eye strain for the tiny stitches.
Well, Celeste, send me an email at the above link (please). Thanks. I would love to see your work.
