The vectors below are designed specifically for high-level expression of proteins in mammalian cells from the CMV promoter with or without a selectable marker. The pFN9A Vector provides Renilla luciferase, which may be used as a transfection control. The pFN9A Vector was designed to complement pGL4 firefly luciferase vectors when exogenous proteins (e.g., a receptor of transcription factor) must be expressed for reporter assays. All inserts may be confirmed by cell-free expression with the TnT® T7 Quick System (Cat.# L1170).
Note: Flexi® Vectors contain the lethal barnase gene to reduce background colonies without inserts during the subcloning procedure. Using the Flexi® Vector Cloning System replaces the barnase gene with your insert. These vectors, as purchased, cannot be cultured in normal laboratory strains of E. coli without an insert.
For more information, see the Protocols & Applications Guide.

The Emery County Sheriff's Office emergency response team and the Hunter Power Plant recently teamed up to participate in a mock training exercise for an emergency situation.The Emery team also contains four doctors who work as first responders addressing the medical needs of possible victims in emergency situations.
During the mock disaster at the plant, the entire power plant was evacuated to simulate a possible emergency. Preparing for the unknown is part of the Emery team mission. Never knowing exactly the type of emergency which might take place at the power plant, the team planned for a bit of everything.
Possible emergencies might include: terrorist attack, fire, earthquake, accidents, hostage situation and other unforeseen events.
The Emery team discovered the power plant is a very big place where a lot of different scenarios could work out. The team searched a portion of the power plant and learned where the danger zones are in regard to power production. Learning the layout of the plant was also an important step to the emergency response effort.
The Hunter plant, as do other plants, have their own safety teams and safety classes are held on a regular basis. Kirk Danzer is the safety administrator at the Hunter Plant. Les Thompson heads up the HERT team at the plant. Members of the Hunter team are also members of the Local Emergency Planning Committee sponsored by the Emery County Sheriff's Office which meets monthly and hosts an emergency fair each year to increase emergency awareness in the community.
The emergency scenario at the training included simulated accidents and implementing the evacuation plan which is in place at the plant.
"Practicing what you've talked about is an important step in preparing for an emergency," said Sheriff Lamar Guymon. "You can talk all you want, but how you handle an emergency is about training and practice for these types of situations.
"We feel this training was excellent to help the power plant to understand what our emergency team is capable of and how much they can rely on us in an emergency situation. It also increased our awareness about how well prepared the plant is for these situations. Coordinating with the plant personnel was crucial in the success of this exercise.
"No one knows the insides of these plants as well as those who work there every day and their assistance in helping our team was essential. Power plants are big targets and terrorists know they are essential to our way of life. Learning the layout of the plant and keeping unwanted visitors out of there is an important step in the continued safe operation of these facilities.
"It was especially helpful for their personnel to point out the safety hazards to our deputies who aren't familiar with the inner workings of the plant. The plant already has a good safety program in place and it's our job to try to enhance safety practices which are already in place. I'm really glad we had a chance to participate in this training.
"We learned a lot about what we're ready to do and where we aren't prepared and what we need to work on in the future. This was good for both of our organizations. We thoroughly evaluated the scenario to see where improvements can be made," said Sheriff Guymon.
Hunter Plant Manager Mark Mansfield is very supportive of the training exercises held at the plant and safety is a big priority at the plant.

Getting Started
Do you warm up and stretch before you walk? Most injuries that occur while exercising are caused by not warming up and/or stretching before beginning. Plus, intense exercise without warming up dumps more fatty acids into your bloodstream than muscles need. These excess fatty acids can end up lining blood vessel walls. Also, sudden intense exertion can shock your heart, greatly increasing the risk of heart attack.
Before You Walk, It's Important to Stretch
- One-quarter head circles. Starting with your ear near your shoulder on one side, rotate your head around to the front, ending with your ear near your shoulder on the other side. Roll your head back to the other side. Repeat 5 to 10 times.
- Arm circles. With one arm, make a backward circle with palm facing out, thumb pointed up. Repeat 10 to 15 times with each arm. Then make forward arm circles with palm facing in, thumb pointed down. Repeat 10 to 15 times.
- Calf stretch. Stand an arm's-length from a wall. Lean into it, bracing yourself with your arms. Place one leg forward with knee bent. Do not put weight on this leg. Your other leg should be back, with knee straight and heel down. Keeping your back straight, move hips toward wall until you feel a stretch. Hold 30 seconds. Relax. Repeat with other leg.
- Cooling down. The final 5 to 10 minutes of your walk should be done at an easy pace. When finished, repeat the stretches you did after your warm-up. Cooling-down stretches gradually decrease the intensity of exercising, improve flexibility, and help your body return to its resting state.
How Fast Should You Walk?
How to Find the Best Walking Shoes
- Get your feet measured every time you shop. Your shoe size can vary over time, especially if you've gained or lost weight.
- Choose a true walking shoe, not a hiking shoe. You want a shoe that's going to bend and flex with your feet. One tip is to bend the shoe and see if it's going to flex where your feet bend naturally.
- Make sure the shoes you choose have shock-absorbant cushioning, since each time you take a step you're putting stress on your feet and ankles. Some brands of shoes have an air pocket on the bottom to help absorb that shock.
- To ensure an even distribution of weight, you want to select shoes that are as wide (or slightly wider) than your feet.
- Shop for walking shoes near the end of the day, not the morning, since feet swell slightly over the course of the day.
- Wear your athletic socks when you shop, so you'll be trying on shoes wearing the same socks you plan to use when you walk.
- Lace up both shoes, and spend some time really testing them out in the store before you buy. Make sure no part of the shoe feels tight or rubs against your feet, and that you have adequate cushioning and support. Also make sure you can wiggle your toes--if you can't, the shoe is too tight.
- Replace your walking shoes at least every six months. Shoes lose their tread and support over time.
How to Keep Up Your Walking Program While On Vacation
- If you're sightseeing, put on a pedometer. Whether you're touring a quaint neighborhood, or walking with your children or grandchildren, chances are you're logging a lot of steps, and miles. So, put on a pedometer before you head out and see just how far you walked. While it may not be brisk, all of that walking counts.
- Take a walking tour. Many places offer maps with a walking tour of the town. Not only will you get in your exercise, you'll get a chance to see a lot of new sites. There's nothing like new scenery to make your walk even more enjoyable!
- Walk before everyone else gets up. If your vacation involves more sedate activities, like basking on the beach, get up early in the morning before the rest of your travel companions wake up. That way you get in your walk during the cool morning hours, and will earn your relaxation.
- Give yourself a fun destination. Whether you want to see a quaint little shop in town, or are headed for a restaurant that's nearby, leave the car behind and walk. There's nothing like walking to see something that's enjoyable to keep you motivated.

Green River has become a spot of interest for the potential development of nuclear power resources. A nuclear power company is looking at Green River as a possible location for their plant and Mancos Resources, a uranium milling company is looking at a site near town as well.
Carnotite, LLC, is in the process of opening a new uranium mine about nine miles west of town and several other uranium mining companies are currently doing drilling projects in the area around Green River to prepare for mining operations. Chad Hemelstrand, a college student has been in Green River this past week interviewing Green River citizens and getting an idea of the sentiment of Green River citizens on the power plant.
Hemelstrand said most of the people he has talked to have been in favor of a nuclear power plant near Green River. Hemelstrand is a student at Utah Valley University and his research is part of his senior project along with Lauren Roderick who is partnering with Hemelstrand.
On this hot Green River day, the students caught up with economic development director, Mike McCandless at the site for the new Mancos Hills Industrial Park location just outside of Green River. They put McCandless on camera and he explained the site and the plans for the park to the students.
The nuclear plant has expressed interest in the site and could lead to the economical diversification of Green River. This is different than on the west end of the county where Emery County is trying to get away from being so economically tied to energy and its boom and bust cycles.
Green River is tied to tourism and agriculture and often people have to work two or three jobs just to make ends meet. McCandless said the key is to develop, but not to destroy the assets we already have in place. The motels during the winter months have a very low occupancy rate, hardly enough to keep the owners going. This is despite the fact that tourism is on the increase as people along the Wasatch Front drive to the San Rafael to recreate.
McCandless said those interested in the nuclear power plant have already secured water. "They have a significant amount of water secured that they plan to use at their proposed facility, wherever they locate it. Keep in mind that the use of this water has its own separate regulatory process. If the power plant chooses the Green River site, then they would have to develop a water delivery solution that is independent of any other projects that are working to locate at the industrial park. The plant is such a large user, they simply have a unique water development plan they will have to execute," said McCandless.
McCandless said as people become more educated on nuclear power the more supportive they become. There are a few groups in opposition to the proposed nuclear power plant. Some of these opposition groups come from the outside the county. These environmentalist groups are exerting pressure on local residents. Nuclear power can be a very good complimentary energy source to what is in place today.
McCandless pointed out coal life expectancy in the county is 15-30 years, the good and easy coal has already been mined and coal is being mined deeper and deeper. The infrastructure and transmission lines are already in existence for the transportation of the nuclear power. The argument many people have against nuclear power is exposure to radiation.
McCandless pointed out that walking in the sun over the desert you would receive more radiation exposure than all the nuclear power plants in the United States put out. Even the native ground near Green River is radiologically hot. Uranium is in demand and it can be managed safely. McCandless believes if the county jumps in early on all proposed projects for the industrial park that they can be partners in all the decision making. The industrial park covers 2,457 acres and there are 800 acres under private control. "This site is tied to Green River, but is outside the community far enough to avoid problems," said McCandless. The site has a built in buffer zone with the mancos shale hills in the area that separate the site from the community. The remoteness of the area works to the advantage of the industrial park. The industries that come to the industrial park won't be affected by close neighbors. Some of the businesses looking at the industrial park are being pushed out of more populated areas and relocating in Green River is looking very good to them," said McCandless.
McCandless envisions the industrial park becoming a home for the uranium milling plant and the nuclear power plant. The park is a multi-use facility. Water lines will be installed on site as well as roads and telecommunications. Electricity already exists at the site and the railroad runs through the proposed industrial park. "I see it becoming a hub for Southeastern Utah," said McCandless.
Part of the interest from the uranium milling operation comes because of the thick 1,000 feet layer of mancos shale in the region. Although the shale has a tendency to swell and move on the surface when wet, the formation is ideal for the types of operations required at the mill. Very little seismic activity goes on in the area. "It is a good, geologically stable area," said McCandless.

LOL @ Vera L!!ReplyCancel
I farking love you for that comment Vera!ReplyCancel
Rob Ford is more of a drinker than a crackie, if you believe the evidence.
As for the BI, I have no idea. The last actor I know of who lost a ton of weight was Matthew Mc, who for some reason I get confused with Woody Harrelson. I actually had an argument with my niece over who played the drunk guy in Hunger Games. I insisted it was the Texas T Rex and she very smugly told me it was Harrelson. Okay, she was right, but how on earth could someone that young tell the difference?ReplyCancel
My inlaws live across the street from Rob Ford and his long suffering wife. His father was a very generous, hardworking man and is probably rolling in his grave. Ford is an alcoholic who does crack when he's hammered, which seems to be regularly. I feel sorry for his wife and kids, and his neighbours. My inlaws can't get into their driveway half the time. No other politician is subjected to people outside his private home all the time. Yesterday he called into a City Council meeting from Rehab. His brother Doug, who is far more articulate and, while sharing Rob's political views and goals, does not share his addictions, is now being touted to run for Mayor should Rob decide to step aside. And most blue collar workers in Toronto would still vote for Rob, the "regular guy" as opposed to the elitist candidates with hidden agendas who run against him. That's why he's the mayor. I think he is just an ass, and I have been one of his staunchest defenders for years. His sister is a drug addict, and her boyfriend murdered her ex-husband or vice-versa — I can't remember. Never a dull moment.ReplyCancel
I have heard from a very reliable source that Rob Ford beats his wife regularly and she is a big coke head.ReplyCancel
Elijah Wood looks the same now as he did 5 years ago. Dom Monaghan has to be pretty fit to do that Wild Things show.
I thought of Johnnie Depp, he has a small frame and is normally slender. Looks rough these days.ReplyCancel
Hey Sherry! At a press conference Rob Ford said that he gets plenty to eat at home. Intimating that he dines at the Y often.ReplyCancel
Ford is an idiot- if any of the ford bros get elected I may pack up and leave this city. He does have his masses of supporters though, at my sons hockey more than a few parents are enthusiastic fans.
Buddy also was spotted at a Tim Horton's supposedly (while he's supposed to be in AWESOME! Rehab!!) and has been calling constituents from rehab.
Sounds like that rehab leann rimes went last year..;)ReplyCancel
I dunno why but my immediate thought was Joseph Gordon-Levitt.ReplyCancel
Vera, actually Ford was accused of having a sexual relationship with staffer Olivia Gondek and his response was, "Why would I say that I want to eat her p*****, I have enough to eat at home." That one was the last straw for me. Here's his poor wife standing by him while he defended that particular gem:
How can he fuck, being that fat? It doesnt seem like it would be fun at all. Repulsive springs to mind.ReplyCancel
Rob Ford + Michael Douglas = TMIReplyCancel
I believe Macauley started in the theater as a preschooler and has done theater as an adult. He sure looks like a crackhead these days, though, doesn't he?ReplyCancel
You're in Aus, yes? Me too. I couldn't agree more, could only help us at this stageReplyCancel

My expectations are never low enough........David Brooks

I'm headed to Bloomsburg today to meet with several local restaurant owners and food vendors to get their commitment for the '11 Rally.
Keep the comments coming and I'll do my best to accommodate as many request as possible.
Tastykakes? I can probably convince a vendor that usually doesn't do breakfast foods to supply various Tastykake products and coffee. Cheesesteaks? I grew up an hour outside of Philly and didn't have a real cheesesteak until I moved to West Philly. BTW, Abner's Cheesesteaks at 38th and Chesnut was WAY better than Pat's or Geno's (IMHO). Unless someone can find an authentic mobile vendor that's willing to drive to Bloomsburg, you're not going to get an authentic cheesesteak up in the coal regions of PA. Heck... the only two places I've found in the Harrisburg area that have good steak sandwiches both run to Philly every day to get their rolls.
If anyone has a line on a local food vendor that would like to work the Rally, send me a PM and I'll make contact to review the Fairground rules.

I've actually been to the Amoroso bakery to pick up rolls for an event I was organizing many years ago. And you're right - the rolls are one of the secrets.
I'll give Dan a shout so see if he can hook me up with a few good vendors. Thanks!

Yep... chicken and waffles will be on the menu come July.
The food vendor base is shaping up nicely. We'll have the breakfast vendors ready to serve at 06:00 and the late night crowd will still be able to grab fourth meal up to 11:00 pm.

Nope. Deep fried Oreos are on one of the vendor's menus. After the contracts are signed, I'll post up a summary of the offerings we'll have at the rally.

There is a southern influence and flavor here. The Civil War monument in Shamokin was crafted by a sympathizer who took payment before the dedication, then skipped town leaving a tribute to those fallen in the rebellion. In Benton, we had the Fishing Creek Confederacy that required Lincoln to send troops to Bloomsburg to quell the insurgency. One has to know that this area had many woven industries that needed southern cotton and there were many farmers that didn't wish to rush off to war and leave their holdings unattended.
I hope folks do not think negatively about the southern influence. Because this area was a popular hub for the Underground Railroad and our forefathers enjoyed the spirited Negro League that played baseball on the fairgrounds. There is also an eastern and southern European influence added to our community to compliment the long establish German community.
Many of our members will enjoy the vast blend of spice and culture that the Susquehanna Valley offers. Our Food Chair Jeff is going to great lenghts to get us well fed and to feature our ethnic heritage.

Lead Slips Away and Rangers Fall to the Bruins, 3-2
Jim Cerny
What has long been considered an automatic positive result for the Rangers did not turn out that way Friday afternoon at TD Garden in Boston as the Rangers let a third-period lead slip away in a 3-2 loss to the Bruins. The defeat closes out a 3-2-0 five-game road trip for the Rangers, who now return home to host former coach John Tortorella and his Vancouver Canucks Saturday afternoon at Madison Square Garden.
Dating back to the 2009-10 season the Rangers had recorded at least one point in their last 101 games when leading after two periods of play---posting a 95-0-6 record in that span. However on Friday the Rangers led 2-1 after two periods, but Boston's Patrice Bergeron and Zdeno Chara both scored in the third period to snap that streak and drop the visitors to 13-13-0 on the season.
It took Boston only 1:35 in to the third period to forge a tie. Bergeron whipped a shot towards the net where Dan Girardi was battling Brad Marchand by the crease; and after Henrik Lundqvist made the save, the puck caromed off Girardi and back over the Rangers goal line to pull the Bruins even, 2-2.
Boston pressed the attack and Lundqvist was called on to make several big saves, including one to deny Daniel Paille's 2-on-1 left wing snap shot midway through the period. However a Rangers turnover in the defensive zone led directly to a Chara blast from inside the blueline that eluded Lundqvist at 11:05, putting the Bruins in front, 3-2.
The Rangers had a major chance to pull even when the Bruins took a late too many men on the ice penalty. The Rangers, though, failed to even record a shot on goal, and finished the game 0-for-5 on the power play.
This was a typical Ragers-Bruins game, with tight-checking, quality goaltending at both ends, much on-ice animosity, and a close game on the scoreboard. The Rangers secured a 2-1 lead heading into the first intermission, and then carried that same on-goal advantage into the third, with Lundqvist stopping 17 of 18 shots through 40 minutes of play.
After Marchand opened the scoring 11:42 into the first period---one-timing a pretty Chara cross ice pass from left wing to right---the Rangers answered right back with a pair of goals of their own in a span of 1 minute 22 seconds.
Nash tied the game at 13:04 by bulling his way into the slot with the puck while carrying a Bruin on his back before beating Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask with a low wrist shot. The goal was vintage Nash for one of the league's elite power forwards; and it was also Nash's third in six games since returning from his long injury absence, and his second in as many games.
The goal was part of an extremely physical afternoon for Nash, who engaged Torey Krug in a post whistle scrum with both players down on the ice 6:06 into the game, and who also drew a hooking penalty on Chara at 15:16 of the first when he powered down the middle of the ice towards Rask's cage with the puck.
The Rangers took their first lead of the game at 14:26 of the opening period when Derick Brassard's perfect pass through the seam of the Bruins defense found a wide-open Ryan McDonagh in stride inside the blueline. McDonagh hammered his sixth goal of the season through a Benoit Pouliot screen in front to put the Rangers ahead 2-1.
Lundqvist continued to make the big save and battle his way through heavy traffic as the Bruins created havoc in front of his crease. On more than one occasion Lundqvist made a save only to look behind him thinking the puck may have slipped through his pads, but time and again he was there with the big stop. He caught a pair of breaks, too, when Chara's deflection hit the post 2:55 into the game and Krug's blast caught iron 8:30 into the second period.
The contest had an angry nasty tone throughout. Though there was only one fight---Brian Boyle dropping the gloves with Chara with 5:03 to play in the second---but a series of post-whistle nastiness, both penalized and not. Boston's Milan Lucic, one of the league's most rugged physical forwards, was on the giving and receiving end all afternoon---including a first period Justin Falk blast that left him sprawled on the ice and his own hard hit which leveled McDonagh.
Falk again was in the Rangers lineup with Michael Del Zotto watching upstairs as a healthy scratch. Rugged winger Derek Dorsett missed his second straight game due to a sore wrist, being scratched after testing the wrist during pre-game warmups. Taylor Pyatt once again took Dorsett's spot on a line with Boyle and Dom Moore.

Benitez won't rule out Reds return
Rafael Benitez has refused to rule out a second coming at Liverpool ahead of his first match on Merseyside as Chelsea boss.
- Related Content
Interim Blues manager Benitez has been linked previously with a return to Anfield and will be a free agent again at the end of the season.
Sunday sees Benitez take a team to Merseyside for the first time since he was sacked by Liverpool two-and-a-half years ago when Chelsea visit Everton in the Barclays Premier League.
And asked if he could see himself returning to manage his former club one day, he said: "At the moment, I'm really pleased here.
"I want to keep winning and you never know what can happen in football.
"I have a very good relationship with the fans and the city but I'm a good professional and that means I will give 100 per cent for this club."

|Man City
|West Brom
|Stoke City
- last updated 26/12 21:38
Benitez's work ethic has helped him begin to rebuild his reputation as one of the most astute coaches around, the Spaniard having got Chelsea's campaign back on track in recent weeks.
However, his latest comments are unlikely to aid him in his quest to win over Chelsea fans who still see him as the enemy due to his Liverpool connections.
He added ahead of Sunday's game at Goodison Park: "It is always something special when you go back to Liverpool.
"My connection with the city is very strong."
Those links continue, with Benitez's family home still on the Wirral near the city after he decided against relocating them when he joined Inter Milan or when he was appointed to the Chelsea hotseat.
He said: "When you have children, 10 and 14, they have their friends around and have been there for eight years so it is difficult to move the family and you have to do something for them.
"I have to move around on my own and then find a way to be there for Christmas dinner or whatever."
Liverpool have nosedived since sacking Benitez and are on their third manager in that time.
To compound matters, they have also been supplanted as the top team on Merseyside by Everton, who finished above them last season and ended the first half of the current campaign eight points clear of their neighbours.
However, Benitez was almost at pains to avoid discussing whether there had been a power shift in favour of David Moyes' men.
He said: "I cannot say this. What I can say is that Everton are doing well.
"I don't think it is fair for me to talk about one or the other one. I think it is fair for me to say that we are playing Everton and they are doing well.
"Moyes is doing a great job, they have good players and a good team spirit and it will be difficult for us."
Side-stepping another row with Everton is unlikely to spare Benitez the role of pantomime villain when he takes a team to Goodison Park for the first time in more than three years.
The Spaniard is still suffering a backlash from his own club's fans, whose revolt against his appointment was galvanised by criticism they perceived him to have levelled at them while Liverpool boss back in 2007.
That was also the year Benitez branded Everton one of the Premier League's "smaller teams", something that provoked a furious response from Liverpool's arch-rivals.
Benitez was the subject of plenty of unpleasant chants from Toffees fans during his six years at Anfield and he was not expecting an easy ride this weekend.
Everton have also made themselves Chelsea's bogey-team, having won the sides' past three league meetings at Goodison Park.
But Benitez has won on his past three league visits there and goes on the back of six wins from seven games.
He said of his own impact on his players: "We are adjusting things but, at the same time, we are giving them freedom to do things in the way they want to do.
"I think we have a good balance and you can see they are keen to learn and that is the main thing for a manager."

With completion of the new fire station/city hall building in Cleveland, at the recent city council meeting, discussion began for setting a date for the open house. The city council members decided to host the open house sometime in April. A date will be set when the building is completed.
Plans were made to host the open house on a week day to allow school children to tour the new facility. The city will also serve food and refreshments.
Mayor Chris Parkins read a letter from the Castle Valley Special Service District concerning increases in rates and connection fees for water and sewer hookups in town and outside of the city limits. According to the letter, the increases were instituted in January. The letter informed the town of the increases and what needs to be done to increase the amounts the town is charging the water users. Each city will be billed by CVSSD according to the new, increased rates. The towns will be responsible to pay the difference if they do not raise the rates to the individual water users.
The mayor and council members voiced many questions about this situation. This item was tabled until a meeting could be set up with Jacob Sharp and have their questions answered before acting on this agenda item.
Two business licenses were approved during the meeting. The first was for Tate Jensen. He is opening a construction business from his home. TN Jensen Construction will work inside and outside of Cleveland, with the office for the business in the home.
Richard VanWagoner, who is an electrical contractor, is also opening a business and requested a business license. His home based business license was approved.
Mayor Parkins informed the council of the difficult situation with fuel for the city's equipment. "There are times when the city's employee cannot get fuel for the machinery. This employee has requested permission to purchase a tank and pump to be installed in the back of the city truck. From this tank, he will have the capacity to fuel the backhoe, lawn mower, and any other city equipment as needed," said Parkins. The council approved to purchase a 50 or 85 gallon tank with pump for the city truck. The city employee will make the determination of size depending of the amount of room in the bed of the truck.
A renters resolution was discussed. This new proposed resolution addresses the responsibility of payment for water charges in a rental unit. This proposal would raise the deposit amount from $50 to $175, and would make the landlord responsible to inform the renters of the requirement from the city. The council agreed to let the city's attorney read the resolution and give his input, and this resolution will be decided on at the March meeting.
Misti Merrell, Lethi Guymon and Hailey Robb were sworn into the office of co-mayor for Cleveland Youth City Council. Town clerk Jamie Jensen, administered the oath of office to these ladies.
Cleveland's next city council meeting will be held March 11 at 7 p.m. in city hall.

The Sounds of Silence
April 14 2008 03:08PM
(The general reaction by OilersNation staffers to the playoffs) You know those little robot toys that bump into walls and then automatically change directions? That's how I feel right now. I'm trying to watch and enjoy the playoffs, but my brain can't do so outside of the context of the Oilers. I tried to watch and cheer for the Habs, like the folks over at one of my favourite Oilers blogs. But even then, I couldn't get too excited. I watch the Sharks drop a 3-0 lead over the Shames last night... and all I could think is that the Sharks were behaving like the Oilers. I mean, who can drop a 3-0 lead like us, you know? I haven't even bothered watching Philly and the Caps. All I do is troll the web for the latest news on what the Oilers are doing. And just what ARE they doing? Well, aside from the fact that Kevin Lowe's been busy, the Oilers are probably renewing golf memberships, rolling on dubs, and ghost-riding the whip. Oh well, lambs. We have a lot to look forward to next year. And even this summer. We'll have some a few contests over the next few weeks, so keep checking the Nation for all the excitement of the off-season... And maybe a few spy pics of the Oil on the golf course.
April 14 2008, 03:33PM
Ah Spin, you would get bored. I on the other hand enjoy all of the fruits the NHL has to offer. I watch all the games and cheer against ex Oilers, or cheer for injuries that could last into next season thus improving the odds the Oil beat whatever team has the injured player.
See there is plenty to do in the *

2012-13 Reasonable Expectations: Roman Cervenka
Kent Wilson
August 23 2012 10:28AM
The Calgary Flames have a few question marks on the roster heading into the new season, but none bigger than 26-year old winger/center Roman Cervenka. The Czech born KHL sniper has spent his entire career on the other side of the pond and has therefore never tested himself against the North American game. His better than average numbers in the second toughest league in the world are encouraging, but it remains to be seen if he can translate that production against the bigger players on the smaller ice surface in the NHL.
The Good, The Bad and KHL Equivalence
Cervenka landed on the NHL's radar during his rookie season for Avangard Omsk, where he tallied 31-goals and 61-points in just 51-games skating with Jaromir Jagr. His production fell last year during his sophomore effort in Jagr's absence, although he still lead Omsk in scoring with 23 goals and 39 points. That was 12 points clear of second-placed Alexander Perezhogin (former Montreal Canadien). Alex Frolov (former King) was third on the club with 24-points.
So even without Jagr around, Cervenka paced his club in points, well ahead of of former capable NHLers like Perezhogin and Frolov, which is encouraging for Flames fans. He was recently named the second best prospect in the organization by Corey Pronman based on his output in the KHL and collection of skills, including puck handling, vision and hockey sense.
On the bad side of the ledger, Pronman notes that Cervenka isn't overly big and doesn't have the sort of speed or skating one would expect out of a smaller forward. Also of note is the fact that Cervenka had the second worst plus/minus on Omsk last year despite leading them in scoring. Plus/minus is of course a flawed stat that can be misleading in such small samples, but finishing in the red suggests either he was dependent on PP scoring to inflate his totals or he was a liability outside of the offensive zone. Or maybe his goalies just couldn't stop the puck when he was on the ice...
The lackluster defense possibility accords with what Cervenka himself has said about his play. In an old interview with then teammate Jaromir Jagr, Cervenka said "here in Russia centers are supposed to skate back and help their defensemen. We don't do this in Czech Republic. I didn't play defense over there. I like it better here because I play on the left wing and there's no problem."
Not the best sign for a club looking to fill in their depth at center.
In terms of scoring translation, based on Bruce Peter's work at Puck Worlds the KHL's NHLE (NHL equivalence) is about 0.65. In 105 games in the KHL, Cervenka managed 100 points for a PPG pace of about 0.95. That makes for an NHLE of roughly 51 points over an 82-game schedule, which is a respectable total.
Some caveats obviously apply to that expected output - first, Cervenka was no doubt a top-3 forward on his KHL squad, whereas in Calgary he'll be top-6 at best. We can reasonably assume his role and ice time will be somewhat reduced to some degree.
In addition, the season Cervenka spent as Jagr's linemate is propping up his KHL PPG pace - if we take his production sans Jagr as more indicative of his abilities, his NHLE falls to just 38 points. That may or may not be a fair assumption since we can't fully investigate how much of an effect Jagr had on Cervenka's production.
It was noted when he signed that Cervenka picked Calgary from amongst his NHL suitors because of the perceived opportunity to jump directly into the top-6. If Cervenka can indeed play center at the NHL level, he will more or less be guaranteed a second-line scoring spot with, say, Hudler, Glencross or Baertschi as his wingers. If he excels, it's not inconceivable Cervenka could land with guys like Iginla, Tanguay or Cammalleri (if Cammalleri plays wing) as well. If that happens, the upper bounds of the range mentioned (50 or so points) isn't beyond his reach.
On the other hand, if Cervenka slides to the wing like he did in the KHL, he'll be battling a lot of other bodies for ice time. Tanguay, Baertschi, Comeau and Glencross patrol the left wing while Iginla, Hudler and Stempniak fill out the right. Absent injuries, Cervenka will have to bump either Baertschi or an established NHLer out position in order to get the opportunity to put up a some points. If that happens, 40-points is probably a better expectation.
Assuming, of course, Cervenka can effective play in the NHL at all. There's a much longer list of European stars arriving to great fanfare in the show and flaming out than there is of guys who have come over and succeeded. Fabian Brunnstrom is a good recent example of a player who was conservatively tabbed to be a top-6 forward before arriving and soon proved to be basically replacement level. Ville Leino is likely considered a success story owing to his time in Philly and big deal with the Sabres, but it took butter soft minutes and a season of high percentages to make him into a reasonable facsimile of an NHL scorer - outside of those circumstances (for both Detroit and Buffalo), he was a marginal NHLer.
So there is a wide range of potential outcomes. If Cervenka is an NHL quality center, he could challenge the 50+ point barrier. If he's an NHL scoring winger, we have to scale back expectations a tad, if only because there are only so many minutes to go around.
There's also the non-trivial possibility Cervenka can't hack it on NA ice and will spend much of the season struggling to keep his head above water. If that happens, expect a 25 points or less before he flees back to Europe.
At this point, it's impossible to know which road the KHL star will travel. He has some positive arrows and some red flags, but for now we can't be sure which will prove to be the dominate factor(s). If he translate his abilities to the NHL game, the organization has added a quality player in the peak age range for next to nothing. If he can't, however, he'll just be another failed experiment.
August 23 2012, 10:53AM
How funny is that. After a couple years in the KHL he finally decides to come to the NHL... and the season here isn't going to happen.
I basically liked the Cervenka signing, other than money and a contract spot, it is a pretty low risk signing.
The Flames themselves are taking a pretty big risk down the middle, we are entering the season without an established 1st or 2nd line center. IF Cervenka struggles to adapt to the NHL, or even to playing at center, their is very little support behind him. Backlund is due for a rebound year, but he mght not have one... that leaves Stajan and Jones.
We seem to be operating on hope, lets hope Cammy can center the first line and produce, that Cervenka is an effective 2nd line NHLer, that Backlund has a reboud year....
"Or maybe his goalies just couldn't stop the puck when he was on the ice..."
lets hope this wasn't the case as most of the time the starting goalie was Karri Ramo
August 23 2012, 11:40AM
Brunnstrum was in a second tier league and even in that league, wasn't a bid producer.
August 23 2012, 12:00PM
One thing that has always stuck in the back of my head is the fact that Cervenka has no experience over here.
While I do not dispute this reality, I am curious as to whether we can say he has no experience at all with the North American game? He has played against North American players before and given the NHL's involvement with International hockey, is Cervenka really coming into this situation blind?
This of course might just be my over-developed sense of optimism showing through, but hey it's almost that time of year so ... "Yay Optimism!!"
I think this was a solid signing, one that is evidence that the Flames are ready to step outside the box.
I understand that Jiri Hrdina had some influence on this signing.
My expectation is that he makes the team and, revealing perhaps more of my age and comparative era, would like to see him be an addition not unlike Mr. Hrdina. I thought that Jiri was a very competent centre, one that played well in both ends of the rink. Yes, he was on a very offensively talented team here (and in Pittsburgh), but I always thought he used his wingers well as a good passer and may have had higher goal totals if asked to be in that role. Cervenka comes here with a similar resume.
@Kent Wilson
That's fair to say, no one (to my knowledge) is calling David Krejci a defensive liability, yet in 79games last year he got 62pts and still only managed a -5 on a +/- stacked team given his on ice save% 0.887 which is totally out to lunch compared to Thomas/Rask's GP/SV% 59/0.920 and 23/0.929 respectively.
So I agree it can happen, but it's rare and usually indicative of something else. Shame we don't have some corsi and PDO breakdowns from the KHL to give us a better idea of what really happened last year.
@Vintage Flame
I'm hoping that Hudler being Czech as well and formerly of the KHL and having successfully made that transition gets Cervenka up to NHL ready quality alot quicker than it would have happened otherwise.

Are Detroit fans suffering from this much angst over the Damien Brunner signing?
Czervenka's signing is pure win. If he can play we have a you g skill forward with offensive ability at a position we ate thin. If he doesn't he collects an NHL minimum salary for a year and goes home.

But what if he sucks, and the Flames suck, and they place 15th in the conference and 30th in the league?....Oh, guess that wouldn't be so terrible after all. Never mind.
I have only looked at the headline but I think that this is the article we have all been dreading. I will report back after reading the article.

Then we'd be the Oilers. And who wants to be them?
It's only a one year deal, so if it doesn't pan out it's not like the contract is an albatross for the organization.
Hard to tell how his game will translate over from the KHL to the NHL. He might do well under an offensive system under Hartley. Only time will tell.
I have only looked at the headline but I think that this is the article we have all been dreading. I will report back after reading the article.
So how long does it take you to read the article & report back :)
Well if he sucks & we suck, really, what could we have done that would be better at this point? What top 6 centre was available that we could have signed or acquired without giving up assets that we can compare how he does to? Maybe we should be looking for a number 1 centre to play between Baerschte & Cerevenka for our #1 line. Play a year. Then we can be like the Oil & sign them all to 7 years at 6.0mill per. Sorry Rex, that just blurted out, cant help myself.:(
August 24 2012, 01:27AM
So, Cervenka chose the Flames because he thought it gave him the best shot at a top 6 spot. Similarly, J Schultz chose Edmonton because it represented his best shot at a NHL gig, i.e. the oil have the weakest defence corp among the Canadian NHL clubs. From what I recall, Cervenka was not limiting his choices to Canadian based teams so can I assume that Cervenka sees the flame top 6 as the weakest in the NHL? Just like I do?
Not a good sign for southern Alberta fans:)
I just hope he's able to crack the line-up. I'm still thinking it's premature to be talking about him even making the team. I hope I'm wrong, and I'll be happily surprised if he does. However, on the bright side, he was decent at the 2010 Olympics, and that was North American ice against elite competition. http://stats.iihf.com/og2010/IHM400003_83_5_0.pdf
Sounds about right. I think the Flames would be lucky if he turns out to be a top 6 forward. If not, his problem will be the old line about "he has to play in the top six." He isn't the type of player that you put on your bottom six for the reasons Kent stated (size, speed etc.) and those he stated himself (doesn't back check). I think it will be a one year stay with the Flames, which won't be entirely his fault but more of a function of the team around him and his ceiling as a support scorer. Its a poor team and he will be a support scorer in too important a role to come out on top in the NHL. But it sounds like he wanted a prominent role, so he made the bed.
One thing I want to clear up is that this is not a low-risk signing from all angles. Actually it's a very high-risk signing from where I sit. Feaster is taking a gamble on an unproven player who takes a roster spot, is listed as a centre but probably can't hack that position, is slated for top-six, supposedly fills a need down the middle on probably one of the worst groups of centres in the NHL. This is not like signing Hannan for 1 year, $1 million to fill out your 5/6 d-core positions. This is more like signing Jagr to spearhead your offense. Except Jagr is proven.

Then we'd be the Oilers. And who wants to be them?
Who do you think is closer to challenging for a cup? In which city do you think there is more optimism about the coming season(s)? My $$ is not on the Flames.
@supra steve
Yes Steve, but who has sucked really bad for a really long time? My $$ is on the oilers. You're on a Flames blog. What do you expect dude?
August 24 2012, 12:08PM
Sorry, but I will not be bashing the Oil just because they are the Oil. I cheered for them in '06, though not as loudly as I cheered Calgary in '04. I lived in Edmonton for 5 years. It's a great city, and so is Calgary.
In my years as a fan both teams have had periods where they sucked. Seems the Oil are begining to emerge from such a period and the Flames are currently falling into one of their own (though management has yet to admit it). A large part of their pain seems to be behind them, ours seems to be ahead. As a Flames fan I envy that position and their recent acquisitions (quality draft selections) and would love a shot at rebuilding in a similar manner.
@supra steve
No one needs to bash the oil just for being the oil. There are plenty of legitamet reasons to bash them... Regarding the optimism and potential of their club compared to ours, I'm with you 100%. I've been advocating blowing up our core for a few years now. Whether the oilers are the model, whatever that means, I don't know. Ask Rex. I'm not convinced that sucking as bad as they have for as long as they have would go over very well in Calgary.
One anecdote, I saw probably 8 flames games live last season and two oilers games (including Gagne's tremendous 8 pt night). I can say that there was absolutely more enthusiasm in Rexall than at the Dome. This is why I'm only half joking when I post that the Flames should trade Kipper and Iggy for picks and prospects and ride Irving to a lottery pick.
August 24 2012, 01:19PM
Then it is agreed, time to tear it down and start to build it back up. I'll let Jay know. We have a modest start with Sven, Reinhart, Jankowsky (hopefully), and a few others. Now time to load up on those 2013 draft picks. Enjoy your weekend.
It's not nice to make fun of oiler fans... they can't help it, the way they are.
AS for Cervenka, I just wonder what happens when half or all of the season is lost to a lockout.
I am so disgusted with the owners this time around.

For every stupid long term contract, yes there is a management team/owner who agrees to and signs it. However, there is also an agent (working for a player) who had no small part in drawing up the contract to circumvent the "spirit" of the current CBA.
Those that say the "owners are entirely to blame" for agreeing to these deals are only half right. If owners agree amongst themselves to draw a line in the sand on duration or total dollar or dollars/yr, that is collusion. Owners have obviously not colluded on this matter, that is why the next CBA needs to be more restrictive. Then the agents can go about circumventing the spirit of that deal, for the enrichment of their clients.

Funeral Services were held for Elam Jones the 29 year old miner that was killed in a roof collapse at the Rhino Mine on March 22.
The services were held in Huntington on March 27 at the Huntington Stake Center. Bishop Jeff Guymon conducted the services. The family prayer was given by Grandpa Robert Potts. Elam's sister Mindee Maki read the obituary.
Tributes were given by friends Jesse Jones, Brady Larsen and Ron Hale.
Jesse Jones said, "Elam was not a complicated man. With Elam, family always came first. He couldn't stop talking about his wife and kids. He loved snowmobiling. He loved the smell of two stroke oil and gas. He loved hunting and fishing. Elam was proud of being a coal miner and he loved it. I am proud to say I worked with him. He always had a big smile on his face. He had no fear. One time he went out to get a Christmas tree and got the truck stuck. He twisted the drive line and punched a hole in the tail gate with a jack and he came home without a tree. He was all smiling when he told me this story, I would have been upset about what I'd done to my truck. But, he wasn't. Last fall I had a deer tag and Elam was on vacation, but he called me and cut short his vacation so he could come back and help me get a deer. Everyone always thought Elam was 100 percent fearless, but one time we went to Vegas and we went to the Stratosphere. Elam bought two tickets. He wanted to go on the ride that swings out over the building. There's nothing normal about that ride. He tried to talk me into going with him. I told him I'd wait while he rode. Pretty soon Elam and Jacqie came walking back over and the ride hadn't moved. I asked him if he was scared and he kept saying, no, 'I'm not stupid'. But, he was scared. Elam was a hero, a superman."
Larsen spoke next saying he moved in next door to Elam when he was four years old. Elam was the best man at Brady's wedding and Brady was the best man at Elam's wedding. "Since I was an only child, Elam and I were like brothers. His family asked that I tell some stories about Elam and I and some of the things we did while growing up. Well, some of it's not appropriate for church and some he probably doesn't want his mom to know about. We spent a lot of nights, sleeping out on the tramp. One night we decided to toilet paper our own houses. We snuck in the house, took toilet paper and toilet papered our own houses. One night up to Grassy Reservoir we dared Elam to light a roll of toilet paper on fire and throw it down the toilet. He took all the blame for that. He was probably the only one who had a bumper sticker on his truck that said, 'snow makes me horny,' It was pretty funny, and it was even funnier when his mom drove that truck around town. One time we drove his truck across Huntington river. The water came up across the hood, but we made it. The truck didn't run too well when we got to the other side, but Elam was so excited he'd made it across. One of the times at Easter we were camped by Buckhorn Reservoir and the mud was thick. We dared him to take his motorcycle through it and he did and got it stuck. The mud was so thick his motorcycle was standing straight up. I always went hunting with Elam, one time he shot an elk and it took us until 2 in the morning to get it out. Elam used to say all the time, I almost died today and then he would tell a story about what happened. He ran his four-wheeler through a barbed wire fence one time, and he told everyone he'd been attacked by a mountain lion. He cut off the tips of two of his fingers with a table saw. Elam was the life of the party."
Hale said, he has known Elam for 25 years, his family and Elam's have gone on trips together. He watched Elam grow from a small child to a great young man. Hale shared memories his sons have of Elam. One time they were on vacation in Arizona and Elam and his son would dive into the fountain at the hotel and collect all the change and go buy snacks with the change. One time they put all the pool towels in the hot tub and clogged it up and the pool was out of service the rest of their stay there. Elam took them swimming, baling hay and talked one of his boys into sitting in the bucket of the tractor so he could bounce him out. All the ladies seemed to like Elam. Elam took them hunting up Nuck Woodward where he always seemed to get an elk. Elam was very proud of his fiance and future wife, Jacqie. "She made him happy. I had the privilege of going to the Manti Temple when they were sealed. Elam was a great hunter, he was always prepared. He went scouting and he was always willing to go out and help the other hunters. He was always riding the four-wheelers and liked to say, 'We was crusin.' Elam was the most daring kid we knew. Elam believed in God. No one expected such a great tragedy to end his life so early. I wish that you will feel the Savior's love. Let's celebrate Elam's life. To all the coal mining nation, may God bless you," said Hale.
Elam's mother Julie Jones thanked everyone for coming to the service. "I am grateful and honored to call each of you my family. You've told me a lot about my son in the last few days. I want to talk to get a few stories straight. I want to encourage you to write your stories down so they can be shared with Elam's two little boys. They need to hear the stories." Julie talked about some of the things Elam used to say all the time including: 'I'll decide, It will be alright, I'm gonna kick your butt, I've got a story for you, what the heck, and Mom, get over it.'
"Elam had a love for life. He lived every day as if it were his last, because he only had a short time to be here," said Julie. Elam had 12 stitches from a four-wheeler accident and then 72 stitches when he went through the barbed wire fence, and that's where the cougar story came in. Going through a barbed wire fence wasn't cool enough. Elam was in a couple of avalanches. During the mine rescue at Crandall Canyon, Elam worked tirelessly to help get those miners out. He loved coal mining and the brotherhood that exists. He tried auto mechanics but wanted to go back to the coal mine. He loved Rhino, it was his favorite mine. He loved the guys and they were his family. Coal mining is truly the heart beat of America. From the minute Elam was born, he and his dad were best friends. Elam loved his best friend. For 29 short years, they were best friends. Julie said at times she was jealous of their relationship and she wanted to be the best friend, but their family was so blessed that Elam and Derk were best friends. Elam pulled the pigs for his cousins, because his arms were the longest. He loved the string game each Easter at Grandma Justice's house, where each grandchild was given a string that was strung all over the yard and connected to an Easter basket for them. He loved his grandma's egg sandwiches. He loved his pheasants, his dog, his wife and his boys. His telephone message said gone snowmobiling even in the middle of July. Elam loved to ride snowmobiles. He often told those riding with him, to put down their purses and get up the hill. Elam asked Jacqie to marry him on their second date. Three years later they got their first son. The boys Kelsen and Dacyn share Elam's enthusiasm and love for life.
Julie had Kelsen tell about a picture he had drawn of his father's accident. Kelsen drew the rocks falling from the roof that came down upon his dad. He also drew beside his dad a picture of Jesus. He said Jesus was there that day to carry his dad back to heaven. "Jesus was a huge part of Elam's life. Elam loved the Lord, he knew the Lord, he had a huge testimony. He had a large heart and was loving, giving and non-judgmental. He believed that everyone deserves a chance. Heavenly Father has a plan for each of us. Elam knew how to love and be aware of those around him. I believe he knew his life would be short. I am so blessed the Savior entrusted Elam to us. I am thrilled to be his mom," said Julie.
The services concluded with Elam's burial at the Huntington City cemetery. There were a number of snowmobiles on site and a last tribute was given when the motors were started by Elam's friends and revved up to cause some two stroke oil and gas to be burned and some noise to be made as a last shout out for Elam.

After winning their first two games of the 2012 2-A Utah State baseball championships at home last Saturday, the Emery High Spartan team is one of four undefeated teams remaining in the tournament and will continue play this Thursday at Dixie State with an 11 a.m. game against Millard.
Last Saturday, Emery opened the championship tournament by defeating Kanab 8-4 and then the Spartans defeated ALA Saturday afternoon 14-3. The Spartans joined Millard, San Juan and Gunnison as the remaining undefeated teams left in the tournament.
Last Saturday, 16 teams started state play-off action. The above four teams are undefeated and four other teams, North Summit, South Summit, Parowan and Rowland Hall, were eliminated with two losses.
Eight other teams have one loss and will continue play this week in the losers bracket with another loss eliminating each team and the winner advancing on towards championship play. Those eight teams are South Sevier, Grand, Beaver, Kanab, ALA, Richfield, Manti and Enterprise. All five region 15 teams are still in play including our Emery Spartan team.
In the opening game, Emery gave up three runs in the first inning against Kanab. Two singles, a hit batter and a double off starting pitcher Brandon Oliver put Kanab up 3-0. Emery countered with a single run in the bottom of the first inning. Tappan Draper doubled and scored on a single by Geren Payne.
Emery and Kanab then battled into the fourth inning before either team could mount a challenge. In the bottom of the fourth inning and still down by two runs, Emery batter Brandon Oliver led off the inning with a single on a 2-0 pitch. Colton Collard got on base due to a Kanab catcher's error and Hunter Huntington walked to load the bases.
A wild pitch scored Oliver and advanced the other two runners. Leadoff batter Ridge Nielson then singled and scored both runners and Emery had their first lead of the day. Draper also singled in the inning but no other Emery runner would score.
In the bottom of the fifth inning, Emery added four more runs to now lead in the game 8-3. Payne led off the inning and groundout to the third baseman. Kaden Feichko singled and then Oliver got out for the second out of the inning. Collard then walked and Curtis Mason then doubled to score two runs for the Spartans. Huntington then got on base due to an error and Mason scored. Nielson then singled and scored Huntington after Huntington had advanced around the base path on pitcher mistakes.
Kanab scored a single run in the top of the seventh inning and Emery had the victory. Oliver, after giving up three base hits in the first inning, gave up only two more hits through the rest of the game and got the victory.
In the second game of the day, Emery faced ALA who had earlier defeated South Summit 7-4. Emery pitcher Geren Payne got the first three ALA batters out to start the game.
Emery, batting in the bottom of the first inning, scored two runs to take the first lead of the game. Draper singled, Dominic Rondinelli doubled to left centerfield scoring Draper. After Payne singled, Feichko walked and then Collard walked scoring Rondinelli. Emery left the bases loaded as the inning ended.
ALA scored two runs in the top of the second inning to tie the score at 2-2 as Payne hit a batter and then gave up a homerun. In the bottom of the inning, Emery regained the lead. With two out for Emery, Nielson got hit by a pitch and then Draper doubled to score Nielson and Emery now led 3-2.
In the third inning, Emery rally came alive at the plate and scored eight runs in the inning to blow the game wide open. Payne led off the inning with a single and then Feichko, Collard and Jordan Cox all singled with Cox picking up a pair of RBI's. McKoy Allred then had a sacrifice fly to centerfield scoring Collard.
Huntington then singled scoring Cox. Emery's top of the lineup then came up and Nielson walked, Draper singled to score a run, Rondinelli doubled scoring another run and Payne then had his second hit of the inning and scored another Emery runner.
Emery scored three more times in the bottom of the fourth inning in what turned out to be Emery's last at bat as the Spartans ended the game on the 10 run rule after ALA batted in the fifth inning.
In the fourth inning, Collard led off with single and Cox doubled scoring Collard. After the next two Emery batters got out, Nielson singled, Draper walked and Rondinelli singled scoring another run.
Emery finished the game with 16 base hits after having nine base hits in the first game of the day. Payne won the pitching victory as he gave up three base hits in the game. Payne struck out eight ALA batter including the side in that final inning.
Millard, Emery's Thursday opponent, won region 13 and defeated Grand in the first game 11-2 and then defeated Manti 14-13. Emery's next game will be Friday.

Lots of people are suggesting quitting. Here's a better idea:
Are you really working all of those 12 hours? I imagine not. Probably taking a lunch break, right? Eat at your desk, use your lunch break to work out. 30min a day of strenuous stuff is all you need. Here's an example:
You don't need to go to the gym; you can do it all with bodyweight exercises: pushups, pullups (get a pullup bar that sits in a doorframe without being attached to anything, like Iron Gym, so you can put it up when you're working out and then take it down), Hindu squats (google it) and crunches will get you 90% the benefit of a more thorough workout. If you want some variety, do yoga.
5min to change, 30min of circuit training (google it) with these four exercises, 5 min to change back. If there's a shower onsite, then +10min to shower, and you still have 10min left to relax and start your lunch.
