By DOUG PERRYCommunications director for Utah Association of Counties
Summer is the time of year when many Utahns head out to destinations around the world for vacation. However, planning a vacation can require more than booking flights and hotels; it can mean assuring you have the required documentation for everyone in your group, such as a passport.
With recent changes in the passport and travel laws, and with the yearly peak period for passport applications now in full swing, many Utahns are heading to county clerk offices.
With a high demand and inquiries for passports, county clerks are working to manage those needs, while still attending to their other duties, including elections and marriage licenses. In order to meet this demand, some county clerks have had to designate certain hours for processing passport applications.
The recent changes to passport laws, which were implemented by the federal government in January, have generated many questions for Utahns planning to travel abroad. Each county wants to assure every Utah resident is up to date with these changes, which were part of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI). U.S. citizens are required to have a passport, passport card, or a WHTI-compliant document when traveling outside of the U.S.
Those traveling to Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean or Bermuda now must carry a passport. However, due to the passport requirements of continental travel, which went into effect in February 2008, people have had the opportunity to apply for a new, limited-use, and wallet-size passport card, which are only valid for land and sea travel between the U.S. and Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean region, and Bermuda.
County clerk offices here in Utah have already seen a drastic increase in applications. We spoke with various county clerks and many of them have seen more people preparing for travel this summer and are either applying for their first passport or applying for their children's passports. Most of the offices expect the number to double the numbers from previous years due to the federal changes.
There are many ways for Utahns to assure that they are properly prepared for travel, which will not only help the county clerks, but will also assure that travelers receive their passport in a timely manner. County clerks recommend the following tips to upcoming travelers:
Tips for passport applicants:
Remember to apply for your passport well in advance. The average waiting period is 4-6 weeks, and during travel seasons, it could take up to 10 weeks.
Be ready to gather and submit all required items for processing (identification, fee payment, etc.). Check with your local county clerk for a list of specific requirements.
Cruises often require passports (sometimes in the event of an emergency).
When traveling:
Familiarize yourself with local laws and customs. Remember, when in a foreign country, you are subject to the laws of the country.
Make two photocopies of your passport identification page. Leave one at home. Carry the other in your luggage (Not with your passport).
Leave a copy of your itinerary with family or friends at home.
If you get in serious trouble or if your passport is lost/stolen, call the nearest U.S. Consulate.
For more information on applying for a passport, or to locate and contact your county clerk's office, visit www.uacnet.org.
Utah Association of Counties (UAC) is a unifying voice for all of the 29 counties in Utah. The purpose of the UAC is to improve the operation of Utah's county governments and, thereby the services counties provide to their residents.

Comments: Awesome skates that are more spacious then other Bauer models and are almost like a mix of the old school flexlites with oldschool supreme leather skates.

Comments: These skates are very durable and lightweight. They also offer comfort and protection in areas around the ankle and toe areas. As an added bonus, they will also cater to player who have wider feet. (something that Bauer skates have not offered in past products) Additionally, these skates can easily be baked to offer a more form fitting feel.

Other Items to Consider
Bauer Nexus Ice Hockey Skates
Traditional Fit
The Bauer Nexus 1N Skate is the most explosive skate from any Nexus or FlexLite family to date. For the first time in Nexus, Bauer utilized their signature one-piece lacing system that not only improves forward flex by 33% but it also improves stability and energy transfer through each stride.
The Bauer Nexus N9000 Skates are a step down from the 1N's but for the first time in the Nexus Line, this second price point features a full Curv Composite quarter package. Bauer has been using Curv in their premier skates due to the pro-preferred properties it brings to the table. The composite is lighter, stiffer, more durable and better at molding around a player's foot.
The Bauer Nexus N8000 Skates are an ideal choice for intermediate to advanced players who are looking for better support and responsiveness. The Pro-Level Tech Mesh Nylon Quarter Package is not only built with significantly enhanced stiffness but it's also fully thermoformable, reducing break-in time and providing a more personalized fit.
The Bauer Nexus N7000 Skates is the first performance-level skate in the Nexus Line and has the features to back it up. The lowers consist of NHL's most popular holder, the Tuuk LightSpeed Edge, and its quick release trigger system. It attaches to the Injected TPR outsole that works hand in hand with the traditional Tech Mesh quarter package.
The Bauer Nexus N6000 Skates are the entry-level model in the third generation Nexus Line. The Bauer N6000 skate is built with traditional materials for a classic fit and feel. The Lightweight Mesh quarter package provides the recreational or new to hockey players an appropriate level of stiffness and support. The brushed nylon liner offers plenty of comfort while also helping to wick away moisture.

Hair's New Best Friend!First, I wanted to tell you why I love this product. I did bought sedu hot pink flat iron, this small free sample of sedu argan oil came along with my sedu flat iron. I did tried but wasn't sure if I see the difference. I stopped using it until two weeks ago my highlighted was over processed, I literally cried because I have very long hair, the ends were so fried, I was told it needs to be chopped off. I tried to buy some hair treatments, still did not help my fried hair. I do have moroccan oil but my hair still so dry and brittle, my scalp itched from it. So I decided to spend sunday afternoon to scramble through my drawers to see which will benefit my frayed hair. I found this small sample of sedu argan oil, I was so desperated, so I was willing to try it. I washed my hair, pour small amount into my hair, blow my hair in cool temperature. I could feel my hair starting to become softer. Then next morning, I turned on my sedu flat iron, praying it would turn out good. To my surprise, my highlighted hair is so soft, my hair is shiny and silk!!!! It does what it says it does! My hair stayed soft all day long, and I couldn't stop touching my hair! My long bangs wouldn't stay in place, it swings! Love Love Love! It's becoming my hair's new best friend! I ordered hot curl rollers here, and got free full size sedu! Made my day when it's free!

This Product Tamed My "bush" Head!I got this as a sample, and was thrilled with it the first time I used it. My hair is very hard to control on the first day it is washed. It is like a dry fluffy bush. It is very course, thick and wavy with gray streaks. I usually cannot wash it more than once every three days. It did only take a dime size amount to make it soft and shiny and calm, and I didn't even have to wash my hands after applying it to almost dry hair. I isn't greasy in the least. I'm dumbstruck. I will definitely order more.Apr 5, 2011Rita / Tulsa, OKHAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Dry Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Great For Split Ends And Heat ProtectionI have used Moroccan oil for a few years but decided to try this stuff out because I read about it in a magazine. It is a really good product. It works for frizz (and I live in Florida and have naturally wavey hair) and is good to use for protecting your hair from styling damage. I have slightly thick hair, but it can get greasy if I use too much of some products, with this product I use it when my hair is wet AND when I flat iron my hair. I usually use the product at my ends before I apply heat to it so that it protects my hair and I have to say that I have noticed a tremendous difference in my ends. Also it smells really good, not exactly like Morrocan Oil, but very similar since they both contain Argon oil. I will definitely by this again, but it probably will not be for a while because a little does go a long way.Apr 4, 2011Sarah B. / Florida (humid)HAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Normal Hair / Color Treated Hair

Softtt Silky Hair !!!This serum is great!!! I applied it to damp hair before blowdrying and then applied a little after my hair was dry. I used it with my sedu revolution flat iron and my hair was so shiny and soft! It was especially satisfyibg on my new growth- I am transitioning from relaxed to natural and I have 7 months worth of new growth. A little definitely goes a long way!

This Product Is Too GreasyI received the sedu ANTI-FRIZ polishing treatment as a gift with my sedu revolution flat iron purchase, was very anxious to try it the next day along with the iron, for me it did not deleiver way too greasy and it did not control my friz in fact it dried my hair out, would not recomend as a finishing produt, maybe could be used as a pre-shampoo treatment or pre-coloring if a person is ok with the ALKYL contents.
Hope this review will help; on the other hand sedu revolution flat iron is the best I have used have had it for two weeks now and very happy with performance, and also FOLICA has superb service, thank you.Mar 30, 2011YolandaHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Dry Hair / Curly Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

Not My Favorite...MoroccanOil is a much better product. Not a fan of the Sedu.... Did not help with frizzing and my ends actually are feeling much more dry than they were before I started using this on a regular basis. Will spend the extra $$ and go back to MoroccanOil... Don't waste your time or money on this one.Mar 24, 2011JessHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Thick or Coarse Hair

Better Hair DaysMy hair was looking very dry. I have really curly hair and I asked my stylist what she thought the probelm was. She said it might be your flat iron. I had been at my daughters house and she is always buying the latest and greatest flat irons and hair dryers. I found out the brand and asked her how she liked it. She said she loved it! It was by far the best flat iron she has ever had. I have been using professional flat irons for many years and spend $150.00+ on them. It is by far the best one yet. My grandaughter has really, really thick beautiful hair. It is very curly and this flat iron makes her hair soft and it looks great. She is only 10 and her hair is pretty long and you can tell when my daughter flat irons her hair that she just loves it.Mar 19, 2011Gina Z.HAIR TYPEMedium Brown / Dry Hair / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

The Stuff That Dreams Are Made Of!So I received this (full sized!) sample with the purchase of my Sedu Revolution flat iron. First of all, that flat iron is AMAZING. Secondly, I was seriously impressed with this product! I have used Chi Silk Infusion for just about forever when I got out of the shower (post shampoo/condition) on towel dried hair prior to blowdrying. That worked fine for me, but I always felt like my hair was weighed down just a bit more than I'd like for it to be, even though I mostly focused the product on the ends as my hair tends to get oily up top. I decided to give this a try and was blown away with the results. The smell is much nicer than the Infusion smell. Its almost a sweet honey nectar smell, I would say. Some of that stays, but most of it goes away with blowdrying/flat ironing. The product did absorb immediately, just as it said it would. So being a skeptic, I continued to dry my hair and then flat iron it and the results were amazing. My hair was silky, smooth, not weighed down at all, not oily in the least, completely frizz-free, and divalicious! I actually think that each time you use this product, little ninjas sneak out of the bottle and coat your hair with infinite silky goodness that protects against the universe and looks fabulous at the same time.
For reference, I used a dime sized amount on damp hair (three inches past shoulders in length) and then probably half this amount or even this amount again once my hair was dry (during/after flat ironing).
I couldn't be happier with this product and plan to order once I empty this bottle. Thanks Sedu.Mar 18, 2011Jb / MOHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Oily Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- From the moment the pregnancy test reads positive, a couple begins envisioning and planning for the physically little, but huge new presence that will enter their life in nine months. For some, however, the joy surrounding the miracle of life is cut short when the incomprehensible happens: The mother suffers a miscarriage, or complications arising after delivery result in the infant's death.
Is one loss more difficult to bear than the other?
"We don't make a big distinction about it — a loss is a loss," said Diane Werneken, co-coordinator of Staten Island University Hospital's perinatal bereavement support group.
Either way, dreams are crushed, hearts broken and anguish becomes imprinted on the soul.
Thanks to the perinatal bereavement support group, which launched nearly a year ago, these survivors don't have to suffer alone. Both men and women grieving a miscarriage or death of a baby under the age of one come together in Ocean Breeze on the first Thursday of the month to share their stories and embark on a journey of healing.
"It's usually taboo to speak of someone's passing, but we embrace that passing. We celebrate this child who was lost," group co-coordinator AnnMarie Catello said, insisting grieving individuals not only want to speak about their baby, but need to as part of the bereavement process.
The group provides an outlet where members can express their anger, guilt, sorrow, resentment and religious turmoil in a supportive, judgment-free environment with others who "get it."
As Joanne Parker, whose son, Marcus, did not survive his three-months premature delivery, observed, "It's nice to be around people who are in the same position as you."
The Bay Terrace resident, who started attending meetings in the spring, said she tried therapy but found conversing with others who understand what she's going through to be a more effective way of dealing with her grief.
At each meeting, Ms. Catello and Ms. Werneken outline the five stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance. Members then may share at which stage they are — but not as any sort of comparison of where they "should" be in their journey.
"Everyone suffers grief in a different way and there isn't a timetable to it," stressed Ms. Catello, a patient representative with SIUH.
The group, which includes a few fathers, also addresses common issues that can arise between grieving couples.
"Men grieve a different way than women do," noted Ms. Werneken, a clinical nurse at the hospital. "A lot of times," she continued, "they try to fix and comfort their wives or significant others."
In turn, they may get frustrated when they can't make the healing process happen fast enough for them, Ms. Werneken said, and that can create tensions in the relationship.
At one meeting, a father in the group noted men also might feel resentment and jealousy toward the mother.
"For nine months, she was able to carry the baby, felt the baby kick and move, and he never had that connection," Ms. Catello said, repeating what this father previously had expressed.
Another topic that often comes up at meetings is the insensitive responses from those reacting to the news of the loss. Responses such as: "You have other children. It's OK."
"That's pretty much the worst thing you can say to someone," Ms. Catello said.
It's right up there with "Oh, you'll get pregnant again," said Marianne DiStefano, the hospital's patient care unit manager of labor and delivery.
Still, Ms. Werneken noted, "It's better to say something wrong than not say anything at all. [Otherwise] the mother thinks, 'I just lost a child; can't she say something to me?'"
"We felt like we had the plague," a group member said of the silent treatment she and her family received after her baby was delivered stillborn last summer.
"People didn't know how to approach us," Lisa, the mother of two surviving children, continued, adding she eventually told people, "'It's OK,' just to make them feel better."
But, she confessed, "I get tired worrying about how other people feel because of what happened to me."
"Unless you've had a loss, you won't understand what they're going through," Ms. DiStefano said.
For anyone who knows someone who has suffered such a tragedy, she recommends acknowledging the loss and asking if there is anything you can do.
And don't be offended if a grieving parent distances him or herself, especially if you are pregnant yourself.
"It's not that they don't want to be your friend," Ms. DiStefano explained, "It's just that they are trying to work through their grief."
By exploring her feelings in the group — which she says is like a family — Lisa says she's been able to work through much of her sorrow. A year after her baby's death, she feels a sense of empowerment, realizing she's a lot stronger than she originally considered herself to be.
"I feel strong. I feel more powerful; it's crazy," Lisa said, concluding "I used to feel guilty about feeling good, but I don't anymore."

Based on the Oct. 2010 U.S. Geological Survey for NPR-A, this area contains an estimated 896 million barrels of technically recoverable oil and 52.8 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. A Record of Decision for the NPR-A Final Integrated Activity Plan/Environmental Impact Statement was issued in Feb. 2013 which provides key objectives to implement consistent management direction for the entire NPR-A. Under the Naval Petroleum Reserves Production Act of 1976, the BLM is required to balance the exploration and development of oil & gas resources with the protection of wildlife, habitat, and the subsistence values of rural residents and Alaska Natives.
The are currently 212 leases amounting to over 1.7 million acres leased. Since the 1980s, BLM lease sales have generated over $400 million. Learn more>
The entire reserve is now managed under one IAP/EIS. Learn more>
1944 started a 30 year period of testing and exploration well drilling in the NPR-A. Learn more>
BLM is developing Regional Mitigation Strategy to effectively mitigate impacts within the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska. Learn more>

She would not tolerate a bow in her hair (I tried everything short of super glue to keep one on her head) and unless she was dressed in head to toe pink frills, she was often mistaken for a little boy when we were out and about. Yes, it got on my new mommy nerve, but I never once considered putting her in one of these . . .

Ever the local advocate, John Brackney, president of the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce, talked up the metro area to none other than Ban Ki-moon, secretary general of the United Nations, during a luncheon at the Oxford Hotel in Denver on June 7.
Ban was in town to speak at the University of Denver commencement ceremony, but first he attended The Denver Forum's luncheon at the invitation of Colorado's former U.S. Sen. Tim Wirth, who now sits on the U.N. Foundation's board. Wirth described Ban's job as perhaps more difficult than being president of the United States.
"Dealing with 435 congressmen is hard, but dealing with 193 countries, each of which believes they have the paramount voice in the United Nations, is even harder," he said.
The U.N.'s military, with 110,000 troops in 15 countries, is outnumbered only by that of the United States. The U.N. vaccinates 60 percent of the world's children and serves 90 million people a day, up to 36,000 of them refugees like those currently fleeing Syria as rebel forces and the government engage in deadly battle.
Asked whether the United States should get involved in the Syrian crisis, Ban said it's a sensitive subject, but he expects all leading nations to convene a peace conference on the matter next month in Geneva. In the meantime, the U.N.'s humanitarian arm has asked the agency for more than $5 billion to help the millions of people affected by the conflict.
"We can't let the Syrian people continue to die this way," Ban told the audience of about 200 people. "The entire nation has been destroyed now." He blames the inflexible attitude of the country's leader, Bashar al-Assad, who refuses even to allow humanitarian workers within Syria's borders.
Ban called on the global community to show compassion to developing countries like Syria, now set back even further by the recent destruction. By working together, he said, "We can move challenges from the world's inbox to the world's outbox."
A key to that, he said, is expanding the use of renewable energy to all corners of the earth. He called it the "golden thread" that addresses all problems, as it makes possible technology, transportation, health, education — virtually all aspects of life.
"We cannot keep burning and mining our way to prosperity," he said.
He declared sustainable development the U.N.'s top priority for his second term, which runs through 2016.
"There can be no plan B, because there is no planet B," he said. "There is only planet A."
Ban believes focusing on sustainability will reduce global conflict, much of which results from real or perceived inequities in resources.
"As we strive for sustainable development, we need to strive for sustainable peace," he said. "When people are hungry and poor and sick, there can be no human rights. There can be no peace."
That's true in particular, he notes, for women and children.
"During times of conflict, there are always women and girls whose human rights are totally abused," said Ban. To that end, he launched the U.N. Network of Men Leaders to eradicate such violence.
"Unless men change their mentality, this violence can't be addressed, can't be rectified," he said. "I have been talking to kings and prime ministers and presidents, telling them that this is not acceptable."

@Janfeae, More all knowing character moments? Damn.
@Paul, even if Rinnegan beats Edo Tensei, if Madara instructs the demon statue to rip his soul and implant it into another body/be revived, what happens the moment Madara relinquishes control? The way I see it, Madara needs someone to execute the revival while he has removed his soul from the Edo Tensei. He cannot do it himself. I guess thats where Black Zetsu comes in, forcing Tobi into the revival.
Also, if the Hashirama body is not going to be used by Madara as a replacement for his own, will Yamato somehow make use of it? And also, will removing the Hashirama clone interrupt the Zetsu?

The sh*t winds of change
May 29 2009 10:30AM
With the recent FMNFing and the new armada of Coaching staff sailing into the Bay of OilersNation, there is bound to be a ton of changes in the approach to the game of hockey, the personnel involved on the ice and the overall attitude at RX1.
Given that the team has been a steaming cup of shitanusly mediocre hockey these past three years, a whole new approach is pretty much A-OK with everyone who is involved with this team, both in the stands and off the ice.
Whether or not GM Tambellini is going to be able to shed some of the heavy contracts and be freed up to chase new (read: better) players remains to be seen. But what is clear is that the list of underachieving meat bags is long and the potential destinations for said bags of meat is short. While a great many current Oilers may not be around to see the puck drop on opening night, three players spring to mind as those who could benefit most from a coaching change.
For many of these doghousian Oilers, this will be their last chance in an Oilers uniform.
Rob "Last chance to amount to anything" Schremp
Stats last year: (AHL) 69 GP 7G - 35A - 42 Pts (NHL) 4 GP 0G - 3A - Pts
Good case scenario 09-10: (NHL) 10G - 10A - 20 Pts Bad case scenario 09-10: AHL4lyfe
It's no surprise to anyone who pays rapt attention to the Oilers that Schremp is pumped to see his career nemesis head on to other (as yet unnamed) opportunities. "It would be nice, obviously, if I'd been playing in the NHL the last couple of years, but this is what the organization wanted to do with me, develop me in Springfield," Schremp was quoted recently saying in a Yahoo sports article. "So that's that path you have to take. Hopefully I'm on track to play in the NHL next year. Hopefully it's a new opportunity. But I think the organization has had my best interests in mind since I've been drafted. It's not just MacTavish, it's the whole organization that has to make plays with my career. They want to develop me and make sure I'm ready. Hopefully next year is the year I make it. I hope that's what the plan is."
Don't you worry about what the plan is there Robbie. There is a solid plan and the Oilers are executing it. Why the plan called for making the SCF06 then missing the playoffs for the next three years we will never know - but there is a plan. Believe that. Perhaps rather than worrying about the plan ol' Lord Schrempington might instead get out of his own way long enough to make something of an NHL career.
By all accounts Schemp's attitude is quite poor but his hands are by all same accounts s-i-c-k. But as any one of the 1000 YouTube sensations will attest, sick hands don't get you no NHL career in this day and age.
Dustin "Donair Please" Penner
Stats last year: 78GP 17G - 20A - 37 Pts
Good case scenario 09-10: 25G - 25A - 50 Pts Bad case scenario 09-10: 15G - 10A - 25 Pts
Even we are starting to feel for Dustin Penner. On a team with an incurable case of mediocre craptitis, DDPP is the poster boy for what is ailing with the Oil. Invisible down the stretch, quiet on many nights, the Donairan one still found a way to pot 17 tucks and collect 37 points last season which really ain't too bad if you step back, ignore his contract and squint at the stats page. It's kinda like a magic eye – the beauty might not reveal itself right off the bat.
But much like Schremp, Penner is playing below his immense potential and could certainly use a change of coaching pace after MacT, who threw DDPP under the bus on a few occasions last year and generally didn't get along with #27 most of the time. Fortunately for Penner it was the Coach that ended up leaving town not him and perhaps the new coaching staff and a fresh approach is exactly what he needs to elevate his game.
Robert "Muffin man" Nilsson
Stats last year: 64GP 9G-20A-29 Pts
Good case scenario 09-10: 12G – 35 A – 47 Pts Bad case scenario 09-10: 8 G – 15 A – 23 Pts
We used to love us some Robert Nilsson back in his rookie year. Quick on the wing, sporting a cool half visor and a big part of that "let's-go-on-a-run-down-the-stretch-with-only-rookies-only-to-break-Wanye's-heart-again" run back in 07-08.
He was able to keep himself busy during last year on many nights distributing little muffins all over the ice: when he was carrying the puck, when he nervously entered the corners, when he was directing soft little flubbers on net. Despite all this fresh baked softness he only able to score 9 goals.
9 goals – despite all the PP and ice time.
9 measly goals.
If we were coaching the Oil and Nilsson had 9 paltry goals in a season we would hire his Dad Kent to come over as a special consultant to the team. His only duty – beating his son without mercy and forcing the two to share a room on the road. That would learn the little bastard. But we suppose some of these finicky racehorses are sometimes better suited to a soft touch and by all accounts Mr. Renney and his velvet gloves should bring exactly that to the table.
Thinking about the 09-10 season
When we lie awake at night in our bed - pictured above - we often now worry about how good the Oilers will be next year. We worry long and hard. If the Oil are going to do anything but repeat the same monstrous disappointment of last year, these three players above are going to have to have a big say in it. We would go so far as to suggest that as goes these three underachievers so goes the team.
9 Goals Nilsson. You oughta be ashamed.
For better or worse, I think we may be stuck with DDPP and Robert Nilsson for the next couple of seasons. I'm optimistic that Quinn/Renney should be able to get something out of these two that Mact never could.
As far as Schremp goes, despite the Oilers organization's best efforts to strip away any trade value that this guy would have, I believe he will be packaged up with a real player in the offseason.
In what fantasy league did Schremp put up 76 points last year?
And Penner's bad case scenario is a little eff'd up. 15g-10a=35points? I'm no math wiz but...
I noticed there were veggies in that donair, which we all know are good for you. However, Penners massive frame indicates to me that he vetoes to veggies and opts for extra sweet sauce.
This is yet another reminder of how painfully bad Kevin Lowe was at ever building a roster.
If Schremp just once said "Obviously I need to bust my tail in the gym this summer and come to camp with the goal to leave my guts on the ice every shift. And I need to go there showing as much passion for the game as I possibly can. This is my last chance to be in the NHL and I know it." Instead of "they owe me a spot", then I might be on board with the guy.
As far as Nilsson goes, he's the goods - one game outta ten. If he comes to camp with the fear of god (Quinn) in him and keeps the pedal to the floor all year long, he could be something special. I know it's blasphemy to say this here here, but the original kid line (Cogs, Nils, Gags) had some juice and I'd love to see all those guys get it together as a unit.
@ Rick:
Not one word about my drawings Rick? Do you know how long they took me?
Stats fixed Mr Souless Mathematician.
Stats fixed.
Man, all of a sudden I have a hankering for a Super Donair. Weird.
May 29 2009, 11:15AM
Great article. I can't say I begrudge Penner for loving donair....mmmmm, donair.
I realize it is about 99% certain to not happen, but wouldn't it be nice if Schremp cracked the lineup and scored 30-50-80? Then again, I'd also like to have a pet lion that I could ride to work.
P.S. I love your room Wanye, but where's your Erik Cole poster?
thanks for the lol Wanye!
@ David S: Last year was a sh*t-nami tidal wave of sh*t and the "kid line" had their chance at the beginning of the season. They threw sh*t-muffins at the sh*t opposition on sh*t RX1 ice in a sh*t old arena in a sh*t division. If sh*tmaster Schremp stops feeling sorry for himself and doesn't mind lighting up sh*t AHL teams for a season I'd give him a chance.
Anyways, no more sh*t talk till we're back in power...
@ Librarian Mike:
There is no Erik Cole poster since his treachery. We all need to start thinking about our stars and goats for next year. I am hoping there are some offseason moves that might change my picks but I have two players in mind already.
@ freeze:
You Sir, are welcome. Rick on the other hand with all his math loving, stats double checking BS has never laughed a day in his life. He isn't welcome.

Actually I am quite a funny guy, just ask me, and was about to respond with a very complimentary and humurous comment on the donair picture.
Based on your comment I will now instead just point out that your stats on Schremp are still wrong.
He never came close to 76 points last year.

Nice Rant cambosmash. Unfortunately, directed to the wrong "David/Dave S". Guess the shit apple doesn't fall far from the shit tree.
But I agree, lets get that kid line in contact with the training staff of the Washington Capitals and then see what they can do together on a line.
Now, enough with the shit talk. And, I am the liquor.
Maybe they should make Nilson room with Mr Lahey, schremp with Randy and Penner with Ricky....that outta scare the Sh1t outta them

Marco's Donair on 104th Ave and about 112 Street is great. Not only is the food good, they serve beer as well. Next time there's an ON party, maybe that should be the place.
Another great one is in the food court at Sherwood Park Mall. Damn, I'm hungry now.

@ Wanye Gretz: Shout out to all the donair places on Whyte, cause they are open when you need them most: 2:35am on a Thrusday....
@ Rick:
Those were his stats for the year before. I'll give you a little tidbit about how I write my articles Rick. I envy Willis' ability to calculate all his crazy stats and I can't interpret them as he does.
As a result I usually will put one or two facts in the articles that are wrong to see if anyone notices. Half the time no one does and the incorrect #s are entered into the internet vault for all time.
Most of the rest of my time is spent kissing the Hannah Montana pillow.

Thrusday is alot like Thursday, except way sweeter.
What's the donair place called that is beside the bubbles? That place is a zoo most nights. I once witnessed the craziest brawl inside that place after the bars shut and the donair cook came out with the gigantic sword he used to shave the meat and threatened the fighters.
OK I am seriously starving now.
*leaves office to go eat, is sad there are no donairs available*

Are we allowed to gloat over our picks from last year yet? Did I miss the posting for that?
I had Nilsson for goat. 9 goals. The defence rests, your honor.
I picked Cogs for star, leaving the 'safe' first-line picks for others. Since Cogs was typically among the least-bashed players on the Nation last year, I take that as a 'good-enough' indicater of star-power for that roster.
Vindicated on both counts. Anyone else?
Great article Wayne and I like your artistic ability.
I'd like to cut DDPP some slack, I am going to make up my mind on him after a season of having a coach who coachs and doesn't beat him with a stick when he is bad. I would also likt to wait until he has a season of playing his prefered position instead of playing the 3rd and 4th lines on the wrong wing....you know 17 goals, all things considered, is not bad.....
May 29 2009, 11:58AM
My prediction for this year's star is Dustin Penner, who will score 30 and play like a man possessed after 2 years of MacTyranny.
My goat will be Moreau, who will not be captain by the end of this coming season.
May 29 2009, 12:06PM
Road runner Donair on Whyte between 99 and 100 street. It is unreal...Place looks like a tad sketchy but the donair's are huge and tasty...
Nice work Wanye, though I think the best case for Penner should be a bit higher. With proper motivation you know he could get 30 goals... particularly if he isn't buried on the fourth line. He could be good for 60 plus a year if he would just move his feet and impose his will a bit more. I hope they are riding him hard this summer - is he ging to go visit Chad Moreau? I think that would help.
Schremp is a frickin babypants dork. He will get a job in the NHL if he works hard and puts up points. He did neither in the AHL last year so why does he expect an NHL job. What a dork. He better bring his kneepads and a good attitude to camp or it's all over for him.
Nilsson... we won't get anything for him right now. He has potential so I would like to see what the new coaching staff can do with him. I wouldn't give up on him just yet, but nine goals is pretty bad. Marty Reasoner had 14 last year... just as a comparison.
@ Jason Gregor: hoo crap, thats less then a block from my house, definitely need to check that out.

These are my guarantees to you town folk in the Nation.
-The 2009 collection of Stuff by Duff is simply exquisite
-Dustin Penner will have a better year.
-Pat Quinn has yearned for years to work for a boss that grants him unlimited Viagra and Celebrex.
-Robert Nilsson will speak Swenadian to team mates elsewhere in the league.
-The IQWT (In Quinn We Trust) phenomenon will sweep through the city.
-At the news of the Quinn signing 'Old Country Buffet' owners could be heard cheering from the mountain tops.
-Patrick Kane wept onto Denis Savard's suit jacket, wiped his nose on his hankey, and continues to sleep with it.

Are you sure about that, Baggedmilk? I thought Viagra was made from Pat Quinn's sweat.
@ David S: I think it's called World's Finest Donairs. We better call DDPP for confirmation...
And shouldn't it be 'DSDPP'? (Dustin Super Donair Please Penner)

@ Librarian Mike:
A common misconception. Although his sweat actually smells like sewage and A&W. It's why he commands such respect, so that he doesn't have to get worked up.
High Voltage on Gateway and 63rd grills their donairs. I know you shouldn't mess with the magic that is donair, but the grilling with oil and spices was delicious. Don't worry, the meat still comes of a rotating spit that has been turning the same piece for days. What do they do with that meat at night is what I want to know? Just keep it rotating? Turn it off and leave it? Refrigerate it? Throw it in a dumpster? If so, I'll be hanging out behind donair shops every night until my heart stops.
I always thought that was a coffee shop.
The best is Swiss Donair on 144 and 82st.@ Wanye Gretz:
The only negative of the cup run of '06, besides losing of course, was the rash of people getting sick from under cooked donair meat (Not making this up). Apparantly, it was so busy and the stores on Whyte were selling them so fast, the meat didn't have time to properly cook on the spit before being sliced off.
I had a few during the run too, but luckily my stomach was filled with enough booze to kill off the bacteria. Is there anything a copious amount of alcohol can't do?...
*Twinges as the anticipation of drinking tonight jolts through his body like a strike of lightning. Drinking problem? What drinking problem?
@ Ender the Dragon: I had Grebs for my star after being challenged to do so by WG when I tried to defend him from Wayne's brutal attack ads. I think I also had Hemmer as a star, but that was a safe bet....I think...
Pretty sure I had Dustin 'Snacks' Penner as my goat, but I can't remember for sure.
@ Wanye Gretz:
ROFL - Your MSPaint skills have improved 10 fold in the past year. The signing off is difficult with the mouse, I suggest investing in a pen.
I haven't had a donair in ages, although I do like muffins & butter.

@ David S: I am seriously thinking about a donair too now. I only roll two places in town for donairs. Queen Donair on 154st and Stony Plain Road and the Donair Station in the west end near Terra Losa. Anyone else have a champion donair eatery to shout out?
Well I had other plans, but a donair it is. SUBJOINT in Fort Saskatchewan makes thee best donairs.

RE: Schremp
I'm not sure why the coaching change is portrayed so often as good for Schremp. If Quinn wants:
a) every line to be somewhat reliable in any given situation
b) prefers up-tempo physical play
where does Schremp fit in? At least under MacTavish there was a designated soft minutes line (although Schremp couldn't crack it) to deploy offensive specialists. It doesn't sound like Quinn plans to do anything of the sort.

Berkley Havoc Beat Shad
Catch the beat and catch a ton of bass with the new Berkley Havoc Beat Shad. Designed with the help of Elite Series pro, Michael Iaconelli, the Beat Shad is a hybrid bait - part grub and part finesse swimbait. It features a longer baitfish style profile with specially designed ribs that catch water and put out a very natural, subtle vibration. The ribs also give the bait a very natural feel once the bass grab on, causing them to hold on longer for better hook sets. On the retrieve, the Beat Shad's boot tail beats side-to-side at any speed, triggering the natural feeding response from bass.
There are a ton of rigging options for the Berkley Havoc Beat Shad. Rigged on a darter head, it tracks perfectly through the water column, and Texas-rigged, it can be fished like a worm in and around cover. It can also be fished on a shaky head for a completely different look than traditional straight tail worms. And finally, it's perfect as a trailer for a spinnerbait, vibration jig, or swim jig. Fish tested, angler approved, the Berkley Havoc Beat Shad will give you the edge to catch more fish and release your inner pro.

Comments: Good bait but not as nice as the Impact. Neither more nor less durable than the Impact. Colors are not great, a little gaudy but I like the pearl, and the GP is okay. I fish this style of bait two ways, on a swimjig and nose hooked weightless. I have found that nothing beats the Impact when fishing nose hooked method, it casts better and sinks faster but these are still pretty good on a swimjig. Tails still get robbed all the time just like the Impact.
From: Nate: USA 5/12/15
Comments: Great little bait, esp. as a trailer on swimjigs & chatterbaits. I've really had great luck finesse fishing these on back of micro chatterbaits and finesse spinnerbaits (try removing the dbl hook off of a SK rocket shad, adding 2 split rings then a 2/0 hook & these as a trailer... slays the smallmouths on the river). Also in comparison to swim impacts, who cares about durability @ $2.99/8 pk, that's 16 for the same price as 1 pkg of 8 swing impacts! GO HAVOC! would like to see some more color choices though.
From: Greg: Butler, PA 5/7/14
Comments: I really shouldn't be letting this out but... Berkley Havoc Beat Shad + Chatterbait = Deadly Combo!!!
From: Justin: USA 4/7/14
Comments: Using these on a shaky head setup. Hook: Pumpkin Ed 3/16oz 3/0 Line: 20lbs Sunline SX1 with 1ft seaguar Blue Label 15lbs leader. Amazing you can let it drop or swim it so universal. I also love that the head of the bait is a little stronger than the rest of the bait
From: Sonny: Wareham, MA United States
Comments: Nice bait. Since im a cheap Bassterd i like it better than the swing impact solely on price alone. It doesn't swim as good as the S.I but who cares when your saving money.
From: Tim: Tolland CT
Comments: I made the mistake of ordering 6 bags of these based on reviews alone. I was looking for a swim jig trailer with a paddle tail to save some $ from big hammer. Thought this looked like the ticket and ribbed design was cool. Could be the swim jigs I use (4/0 hooks) but I found the beat shad to be too small and the paddle tail only moved if retrieve speed was really fast. I did try changing how I had it hooked (moving it back) to get more water resistance to the paddle but it was only semi-successful. Going back to the big hammer for now but still hoping to find a cheaper trailer with the ribbed design.
From: Nate: MN
Comments: I got some of these to use on the back of swim jigs, and they are great for it, flexible tail and good action. But a fair warning to all, some baits have a scent thats smelly to us but good to the fish. These top it off. No way am i saying dont buy this, but it smells like actual poop. use these, just dont put your nose near em.
From: Zach: orlando fl
Comments: Let me start by saying I'm a Havoc fan. I picked up a couple packs of the Beat Shad and was fishing a tourney when I decided to tie one on. I can say I am really impressed with this bait. It has great action and the color selection is awesome. This bait helped me catch fish and it has produced bites that I was not expecting! There is a down fault, the bait is extremely soft. Your lucky if you can catch 2 fish before it is destroyed. I have tried to glue them, melt them and have not been able to repair them. Will buy more and continue to use them with the hope Berkley will improve the design to hold up better.
From: Darren: Portales NM
Comments: Used these as trailers on chatter baits, swim jigs, and spinners. NOT durable and will NOT last more then a dozen cast until it breaks. Almost looks like they in-bedded the salt into the lure.
From: Miguel: Rosewell, NM
Comments: Awesome little grub, just as good as the swing impact! All of you keitech guys are just being bitter...who cares about knock offs..etc. These are half the price and come in a few really good colors. I will be buying these from now on.
From: Michael: Endicott, NY, USA
Comments: I used both Keitech and Berkley. Keitech is softer with better action and better scent, resulting catching more fish here in West Coast. I guess in the clear water, fish gets smarter and very selective. Maybe you guys in the South don't have to. But with only $3 difference (that's like a cup of coffee at Starbucks!), I would stick with Keitech.
From: Jade: SoCal
Comments: This is a great bait. And there a knockoffs everywhere in the tackle world thats part of the business. The only thing I take issue with is Berkley claiming that Iaconelli designed this bait. We all know he had absolutely nothing to do with designing this bait it is a direct copy of the keitech swing impact. Just sell us good lures at a great price don't lie to us like we're idiots. All this being said I bought 3 packs of these. They would be even better if they were powerbait and not havoc.
From: rjd
Comments: Man this lil bait is the real deal!! I like it on a darter head or on a split shot rig!!!
From: Brian: Burlington, NC
Comments: For all you clowns who complain about the Havoc lineup you are right. DONT BUY THEM! LEAVE THEM ALL FOR ME! Especially Pit Bosses, Rocket Craws, Craw Fattys, etc etc etc. Berkley is giving you quality baits for 2.99! What! AND you get like 10 per package depending on which bait you choose. For all you hooligans complaining about "knock off" check yourselves because you didnt invent jack squat.
From: JP: Minneapolis
Comments: Some of you guys need to get a girlfriend...or maybe just go fishing more. How many A-Rigs are available? How many Senko style worms? Shad Rap clones? Wiggle Wart clones? Bagley clones? Rattletrap clones? Anyway. Unlike you, I fished the Beat Shad today. I was very impressed. These little grubs really loaded the boat. I was fishing the green/blue color on a 1/8 jig head. I was swimming and hopping the lure through brush and grass....and fishing it like a do nothing worm on some warm flats. I caught several nice ones on the same lure...these little guys really hold up well. I'm sold.
Comments: I have supported Berkley from my earliest days of fishing. The original power bait scent to this day brings me back to being a young fisherman. That being said I also have enjoyed fishing Keitech baits the past few years and love them. The entire havoc line is made cheaply and sold at a cheap price point. I have felt every havoc bait out there, for some designs the cheapness and poor quality wont make much difference. BUT I highly doubt that the way the havoc baits are made and the plastics they use could fish and have the action as the keitechs. I do life supporting USA business, but the Japanese make incredible fishing gear. I have to give credit where credit is due.
From: Greg: Albany, NY
Comments: Great Job Berkley! Great Job Ike! Sweet bait, colors, and price! I can see this playing a role in the classic this weekend!
From: Gman: smallie & largieville
Comments: Earl couldnt be more right.. This is a product review not a Fishing Forum, and whether or not Berkley has more money than god, you can only produce so much? Skeet produced the little creeper, so when he moved to Berkley he's gonna fish his sponsors equip. How many possible swimbait body's are there? Some baits Defanatley catch more than others, if thats the case we'll find out what catches more.. Beat shad-Swing Impact.. GO!
From: Sammons: Lake Texoma, TX
Comments: I was almost going to let the sick fish slide until I saw this incredible rip off of the keitech swing impact. Berkley should be ashamed of themselves like Matt said those idiots have enough money to fill up 100 gymnasiums and they can't come up with their own idea!! Doesn't really matter anyway because I'm sure the keitechs swim and fish 1,000 times better then these cheap rip offs anyway so hopefully nobody will buy them.
From: Eric: NJ
Comments: While you guys are complaining about knock offs, I am spending less money, supporting a company in the USA, and more importantly CATCHING FISH! Its also better when a pro staffer dosemt have to use a competitors product to catch fish while they can support their sponsors. And if knockoffs bother you guys so much then go spend 8 pointless dollars on an Original Senko, $5 more then what you should pay for any bait like that.
From: Matt: South Florida, USA
Comments: Hey, how many people have made the Yamamoto Senko? I'll bet you fish with one of those knockoffs. If you haven't fished the product, don't leave a review.
From: Earl: Cali
Comments: already got one..its called a keitech swing impact. good job berkley....

Ahhhh, it's finally that time when drafts are becoming more and more meaningful and abundant, we've got the REL Auction draft on Thursday, and two RCL leagues drafting this weekend which still have spots open! Don't forget the grand prize in RCL of Razzball gear and a permanent imprint of your team name shaved in my head. I mean, where else can you win a fan league and brand the resident editor? I'm not really looking forward to the looks I'm going to get (doesn't help I'm 6'7 and people be lookin' anyway!), especially if a team like Your Mom wins. Ugh.
So in order to hopefully restore my honor, my second RCL team was drafted last Thursday, and I gotta say, while I'm lukewarm to my team, you RCL leaguemates were brutal. Here's how the draft went down (full draft results):Please, blog, may I have some more?


text: Quill GordonThe emergence of the Quill Gordon along with the Blue Quill signals the coming of Spring in the Eastern United States. The aquatic insects mimicked by the Quill Gordon create excitement among trout fly anglers as it is one of the first hatches of the year. The size of this insect is normally a #12 or #14.Spring and the emergence of the Quill Gordon varies depending on water temperature. Due to that condition, these insects will begin their reproductive mating at different times in different locations. For instance, Quill Gordons mate later in higher elevation mountain streams because the water is colder there. Also, the Quill Gordon will emerge and usually mate in the South earlier than in the Northern States.It is said, by experts, the Quill Gordon becomes active when the water temperature reaches 50 degrees for a sustained period of time. Many anglers say that period is 5 days or more. In the Great Smoky Mountains and Southern Appalachians this aquatic insect is usually active in late February or early March though it can happen earlier or later. In 2012 the Quill Gordon hatch was noticed during the second week of February in the Smoky Mountains as this was the warmest year on record.This quill bodied mayfly pattern dates back to the early 1900s at the time of New York Catskills angler and fly tyer, Theodore Gordon. Many historians give credit for the creation of this fly to the Father of American Fly Fishing, Theodore Gordon.Anglers in the Smoky Mountains should have some of these flies, in addition to Blue Quill and Blue Wing Olive patterns to be ready for the first major Spring hatches.FREE GROUND SHIPPING IN THE CONTINENTAL UNITED STATESLittle River Outfitters is a fly shop and mail order company located in Townsend, Tennessee, a gateway to Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

....Sarlacc food......
I sent a friend request to the BFFC myspace page. I have to go to school now! Bye!
The new layout is awesome...moer people need to check it out.
Thanks Sintas! It's a work in progress.
I just saw this today, but can anyone tell me if this is actually Jeremy Bulloch's MySpace page?
People have so many fakes up nowadays, it's hard to tell.
Yes, as it states, it's the official Jeremy Bulloch page.
In truth, it was set up by someone else for him, but it's his.
I need to make a myspace web page now that Jeremy is on it, and of course you to Chaplin.......
