The Toronto Blue Jays continued their offseason overhaul, adding the reigning National League Cy Young winner in a deal that cost them an elite prospect, maybe two.
Numbers Game breaks down the deal for R.A. Dickey.
The Blue Jays Get: RHP R.A. Dickey, C Josh Thole and a prospect.
Dickey, 38, won the National League Cy Young Award in 2012 after going 20-6 with a 2.73 ERA and 1.05 WHIP, registering 230 strikeouts in 233 2/3 innings.
While that's a stunning development for a pitcher in his late thirties, particularly one that had been a journeyman throughout much of his career, it's also fair to note that this turn to ace didn't happen overnight. It effectively started in 2010, when he took a regular turn in the Mets' rotation beginning on May 19.
Over the last three seasons, Dickey is 39-28 with a 2.95 ERA (10th-best in baseball) and 1.15 WHIP (11th-best) and a fWAR of 9.9, which ranked 30th among pitchers over that time.
The difference between 2010-2011 and 2012 for Dickey could be seen in his strikeout numbers. 8.86 strikeouts per nine innings ranked 14th among starting pitchers in 2012 and it was a dramatic jump from the 5.45 strikeouts per nine innings.
What led to Dickey getting more strikeouts was an increasingly effective knuckleball. According to www.fangraphs.com, opponents swung at pitches outside the strike zone a career-high 34.0% of the time against Dickey. Expanding the strike zone allowed Dickey to also generate swings and misses on 12.2% of his pitches, also a career-high.
As one might expect when a 38-year-old pitcher emerges with the best season of his career, there is some likelihood of regression for Dickey. For instance, he stranded 80% of his base-runners in 2012, the fourth-highest rate among starters. Additionally, Dickey is moving from pitcher-friendly Citi Field to the Rogers Centre, which was middle of the road in both runs and home runs allowed in 2012.
Over the last three seasons, when he's been a rotation regular, Dickey has fared well against American League clubs. Small sample size disclaimer included, the results are impressive as Dickey has gone 7-0 with a 1.78 ERA, 0.89 WHIP, 71 K in 71 IP over 10 starts.
In Toronto, Dickey joins a rotation already improved with offseason additions of Josh Johnson and Mark Buehrle and, combined with returnees Brandon Morrow and Ricky Romero, gives the Blue Jays a rotation capable of making a push for the playoffs and, potentially, the World Series.
Dickey, signed for $5-million in 2012, has agreed to a two-year, $25-million with the Blue Jays, meaning that Toronto will get three years out of Dickey for $30-million. Under most circumstances, it's not likely that a 38-year-old would get such a lucrative extension, but knuckle-ballers are a different breed in that they can, in many cases, pitch well into their forties. Joe Niekro started 26 games when he was 42; Phil Niekro started 26 games when he was 48; Tim Wakefield started 23 games at 44-years-old and Charlie Hough started 21 games when he was 46.
That doesn't guarantee that Dickey will be delivering Cy Young stuff in three years, but the nature of the pitch does make it easier for a pitcher to last longer, so it's fair to expect Dickey to remain effective through the life of the contract.
26-year-old lefthanded-hitting catcher Josh Thole also comes to the Blue Jays with 308 games as a major league catcher under his belt. He was nearly Dickey's personal catcher for the Mets, but struggled at the plate, hitting one home run, driving in 21 and batting .234 with a .584 OPS in 104 games. In 308 career games, Thole has just seven home runs, 87 RBI, a .261 average and .664 OPS.
Thole will fill the backup catcher's role for the Blue Jays because his bat doesn't warrant starter's status. He earned $498,200 last season and is "Super Two" arbitration eligible, based on his major league service time exceeding the threshold of two years and 142 days.
This move is undeniably bold for Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos, who has shed significant prospect depth and quality in deals with the Miami Marlins and now the Mets, but in so doing, has turned the Blue Jays from a 73-win also-ran to a team, going into 2013, that has legitimate playoff aspirations, making the Blue Jays appear more relevant than they have at any time since their last World Series crown in 1993.
The Mets Get: C Travis D'Arnaud, C John Buck, RHP Noah Syndergaard and a prospect.
D'Arnaud, 23, was a first-round pick of the Phillies in 2007 and acquired by the Blue Jays in the Roy Halladay trade in December, 2009.
While playing Triple-A in Las Vegas last season inflated D'Arnaud's numbers (16 HR, 52 RBI, .333 AVG, .975 OPS in 67 GP), it's not as though he wasn't hitting before that. In 2011, for example, D'Arnaud had 21 home runs, 78 RBI and hit .311 with a .914 OPS at Double-A New Hampshire.
Even though he's coming off a season shorted by injury, a torn posterior cruciate ligament in his knee, D'Arnaud is considered the premier catching prospect in baseball and he's probably not far from the major leagues. He could be ready to break camp with the Mets in 2013 but, based on his shortened 2012, he may start the year in Triple-A before getting the call at some point during the season.
With no major league experience, D'Arnaud is a very inexpensive option, under team control for the next six seasons, making him a cornerstone piece for the rebuilding Mets.
While the Mets await D'Arnaud's arrival, they have veteran John Buck to mind the store. Buck, who the Blue Jays previously acquired from the Marlins, is coming off one of the worst seasons of his career, hitting .192 with a .644 OPS. Though Buck struggled to hit in 2012, he managed the highest walk rate (12.3%) of his career.
Buck is a stop-gap solution who has some power -- his 48 home runs over the last three seasons ranks fifth among catchers -- and will be paid $6-million in 2013, the final year of his current contract.
Noah Syndergaard is a 20-year-old, 6-fo0t-5 righthander who was selected in the first round of the 2010 draft. Since then, he's been dominant in the lower minors, going 13-8 with a 2.35 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 196 strikeouts in 176 innings between Rookie and Single-A ball. In addition to those impressive strikeout totals, Syndergaard has shown impressive command, walking 53 in those 176 innings, giving him a 3.70 K:BB ratio.
As Syndergaard progresses through the minors, the development of his off-speed pitches will help determine just how high his ceiling is, but there's a reasonable chance that he could be a number two starter in the majors if he continues on his current path of development.
Giving up the Cy Young winner is hardly the way that teams get better, but it's understandable that the Mets are taking the long view. They have too many holes to fall in love with a 38-year-old knuckleballer, so when a team offers two pieces that have the long-term value of the prospects in this deal, it's a no-brainer for the Mets in terms of improving the franchise over the long haul.

Preseason Games Nos. 1 and 2: Splitsville
Ryan Lambert
September 21 2010 04:51PM
Today is the first day we will see NHL players doing their jobs in a competitive format since last June, and it's been considerably longer than that since we saw anyone do it in a Flames jersey. Whether that's a good or bad thing remains to be seen, I suppose, but as far as the competition goes, well, you may want to temper your excitement.
To give you an idea of the type of rosters both Canucks squads are going to be rolling out tonight, all one needs to do is look at their top lines. In Calgary, Joel Perrault, a 27-year-old veteran of a whopping 89 NHL games, runs the pivot for the formidable duo of Jeff Tambellini and Jannik Hansen.
But Canucks kept the big guns back home. They will start with a line featuring, from left to right, the ghost of Peter Schaeffer's unimpressive career, brainless thug Rick Rypien (his dad was a boxer!) and Victor Oreskovich, whom the Florida Panthers of all teams relegated to fourth-line minutes last year.
The Flames, on the other hand, are bringing MOABs to what Canucks brass clearly intended to be a snowball fight. Among the names of those playing in Vancouver tonight are Rene Bourque, Niklas Hagman, Matt Stajan and Mark Giordano, which is sufficiently impressive. But they're icing a more-or-less NHLer-laden roster for the home crowd in what must be an effort to placate those that would show up to the Saddledome tonight with torches and effigies ready to go if there's even a hint that Olli Jokinen is still fairly bad.
Speaking of our dear Pumpkinhead, it's interesting that they're already giving the top line of Tanguay-Jokinen-Iginla a go, perhaps in hopes of creating some sort of time vortex that would pull the universe back four years when that unit would have been considered formidable, rather than the broken-down remnants of a rapidly-yellowing Darryl Sutter wishlist that is, honestly, a bit mauve-ish already.
Of note too is that despite Vancouver rolling out two rosters, they saw fit to avoid using either Sedin twin, Roberto Luongo, Dan Hamhuis, Mason Raymond, Mikael Samuelsson, Alex Edler, and so on and so forth. Although it is comical that even with a bunch of 19-year-olds in the lineup, they're not going to give Darcy Hordichuk any more than like eight minutes a night because he really is awful.
I figure most of the stuff to watch for tonight mostly has to do with the blue line. Issues worth tracking include whether Robyn Regehr seems particularly engaged, since he spent so much of last year appearing to be rather the opposite, and what in the name of Lanny McDonald Jay Bouwmeester is doing paired with Matt Pelech — or more specifically, if this means he's about to usurp Adam Pardy's regular lineup spot like everyone figures he will.
Ah well, if nothing else, it's real live NHLish hockey. You're gonna love it.

Edit - what Dustin said, of course. Carry on.
Probably referring to the late Joker penalty.
Strange game, but I'm not exactly excited about beating a bunch of guys that might have a hard time making the playoffs in the AHL. Tanguay's hands look good, though, and Pelech doesn't look out of place. I'd really like to see him against actual NHLers.
September 21 2010, 09:40PM
Anyone see Hagmans goal???? I think it might be Hagman vs Foligno vs Jeff Carter for the highlight of the night tonight!

It was very nice. The Flames won an O zone draw, Kronwall handed it to Hagman near the blueline, and he then skated around a couple of players to score. Very nice play.
September 21 2010, 09:53PM
wow, what a goal by Bourque
and Kronwall too!
September 21 2010, 09:53PM
@Ryan Lambert
Hence he plays for the Flames. Talented players that don't always/barely play to their potential.
September 21 2010, 09:54PM

September 21 2010, 09:55PM
Kronwall's goal was off a very nice pass by Mitch Wahl.

September 21 2010, 09:58PM
Stajan's only played 4 minutes. Hmmm.
September 21 2010, 09:58PM
Kronwall's goal was off a very nice pass by Mitch Wahl.
He's not playing against anyone of note tonight really, but a good start to the preseason for him nonetheless.
Does it disturb anyone else that our "core" players could barely beat Vancouver's farm team, and our "supporting" cast seems to be beating up on them?
September 21 2010, 09:58PM

Nah. I'm doing my best not to read too much into pre-season.
September 21 2010, 10:07PM
As per Vicki Hall's Twitter, Stajan was hurt tonight and won't return. No other details.
September 21 2010, 10:11PM
As per Vicki Hall's Twitter, Stajan was hurt tonight and won't return. No other details.
Well...that's not good. Hopefully not serious.
Watching these two games (or parts of both) certainly does make one realize just how much 5-6 "d" talent the team is rich with.
I thought Pelech looks damn good. Unless the wheels fall off, I'd be penciling him in already. But add to that, Kronwall, who seemed sharp in the other game, and potted a goal, Negrin who looked stable and intelligent and Pardy, who we all know can handle himself in the NHL. and suddenly you're thinking...sheesh.
How Staios, especially considering his contract, has any value to the team is beyond me. He looked old and slow in the first game to boot.
Goaltending, is always interesting for me.
Kipper looked good, solid, but a little slow and he got a bit mixed up on that goal, but heck...it's preseason. He really looks like he's been working on 'walling-up' in the offseason. Trying to close those small holes.
Karlsson impressed me. He's very calm, and composed. He wasn't tested too much, and for such a freakish giant, he doesn't know how to use his size. For example, Vernon, may not have been that great, but if Karlsson had his size, he'd be doing other things in life. He still plays way too deep and stretches for too many pucks. Someone needs to tell him he's 6'6".
Irving looked really nervous. He struggled significatly all night to find a groove, but his skill worked for him. The goal he allowed is more of a fortunate bounce for the nucks than slow lateral movement for Irving. He was there, it just went off his pad and straight back. He was a little too-far rotated.
Kotaliks goal was nice, but he's still soft, soft, soft. Hagman's as well. Both those guys just need to do it 20-25 times in regular season. Tanguay looked good. Iggy picked it up. Gio had a bad night. Reggie looked like the old Reggie. He almost killed himself and some prospect going for a huge hit.
Oh well, we don't have Lack (more impressive than Karlsson? same size?) but at least we don't have Shantz and Weiman.
September 22 2010, 09:50AM
recap from my point of view: period 1 - Groan - offense looks like last year, Reggie gettin' physical. Joker's skating at least...backchecking hard, if not overly effective. What the heck is Jbo doing crashing the net? Saddledome beer is hardcore as always. Van's prospect goalie looks pretty good..now I see why there was so much chatter about him at the prospects tourney
period 2 - Backlund from Tangs SHG - very nice. Tanguay REALLY took off on that one, great burst. -- Yup, still hate vancouver.
period 3 - Saddledome beer is hardcore - thought I just saw Kotalik drive the net and score...i'll check the replay, nope - he lost the puck and the canuck d-man put it in. Oh well, here's hoping he can do some legit scoring later. Weak wrap around goal on Irving, but he makes a wild save a bit later to make up for it. nice shot Iggy - short side! Never got out of the parking lot this quick - must be preseason. Sounds like I missed the more impressive of the 2 games.
im defs happy that pelech came to play tho. take sarich and staois' spot. no one really talked about sarich to much??? howd he do????
i hope the orginization will recognize that these younger guys need to move up and the older guys cant be kept just becuase they are vets.
please be smart flames. please.
was the top line any kind of dominant last night???
September 22 2010, 10:22AM
I just watched the "game in 6 minutes" on the maple laughs website - Phaneuf was a COMPLETE pilon last night!

Yeah he had a rough outing. Apparently there was some scattered boos.
Just wanted to let everyone associated with this site know that you are doing a fantastic job. I look forward to reading about the new season on here.
Good to see Ryan is back, he is hilarious!

No defined roles for Bills LBs just yet; Thursday mini-camp recap
by Joe Buscaglia
posted Jun 21 2012 5:12PM
In the final day of practice before the Buffalo Bills break for a month, the team got in their last bit of team drills and semi-scrimmaging.
The reason I write "semi-scrimmaging" is due to the fact that the team can only have so much contact during this off-season workouts. On Wednesday, I kept a close eye on the rotation at linebacker throughout the 11-on-11's. Most notably, I wanted to see who lined up where and what role they assumed on given plays.
The conclusion? Either the Bills don't have players pigeonholed in to specific roles just yet, or that's the way Dave Wannstedt wants his linebacking core to look. This all comes with the obvious justification that it is only off-season workouts, and you can't draw too many defined conclusions from them. But it was interesting to see so many guys working at so many different spots even on a play-to-play basis.
Here's the rundown of who took first team reps and where throughout the day:
Kelvin Sheppard - Unknown minor injury, didn't participate on Thursday. Expects to be ready for training camp. Plays the 'Mike' exclusively.
Nick Barnett - Lined up at all three spots at certain points throughout the practice. Diagnosed as the 'Mike' on more than one occasion.
Kirk Morrison - One of the few that played exclusively at one spot. In the few plays he had -- based on the offense running, three and four wide receiver sets without the requirement of having him in there -- Morrison played the 'Sam.'
Bryan Scott - Besides his obvious role as nickel linebacker, on five-wide sets Scott was the 'Mike,' as the only technical linebacker on the field.
Nigel Bradham - Played a fair bit of both 'Sam' and 'Will' throughout the session. I don't recall him getting a look at 'Mike' on Thursday.
Danny Batten - At times commanded the huddle as the 'Mike,' and also the 'Sam' on three-wide sets. Played some 'Will' as well. My best guess for him is that they don't know where his best position is just yet.
Arthur Moats - Played the 'Mike' at times and also dropped in to coverage as the 'Sam.' Also did some work as the 'Will.' I think he's probably in the same boat as Batten in terms of finding a defined spot. That's really nothing new for him in his career.
Scott McKillop - With no Sheppard during team drills, McKillop came in and assumed the 'Mike' role on some first team reps. If he makes the team, that will likely be his primary role.
Rookie Tank Carder didn't get a rep with the first team, meanwhile Chris White is coming off his major knee injury from last season and didn't take any team reps.
I asked Sheppard if it's just a matter of getting guys experience early on at a bunch of different spots or if that's the major ideology of Wannstedt's defense. He spoke of the former.
"There's about 11 or 12 different linebackers here right now. It's not gonna be that many after camp," the linebacker said. "You never know, you never know who's going to be here, you never know who's going to go down in training camp, so you want the whole room to be ready and that's what we're doing right now."
The Bills have said previously they would like their outside linebackers to have versatility and play both the 'Sam' and 'Will.' I just found it interesting to see it in action during the Bills' final off-season workout.
Outside of where the linebackers lined up, there were some good and bad days just like any.
Since I just went in to full detail about them, there was one linebacker that caught my eye. Nigel Bradham has been very impressive in what he's been able to do with such a limited time in the playbook. He makes good reads to his assignments and gets there to break up some plays. We all know about his hitting prowess, but it's his speed and instincts that have stood out the most to me.
If there's ever an injury to one of the three starters, in my opinion he's the likely next man in. If it's Sheppard that can't play, I wouldn't be surprised if Barnett had to move inside to 'Mike,' bringing Bradham in to assume the 'Will' in three-linebacker sets. It's early, but that makes the most sense to me right now.
I'm fairly intrigued by the prospects of one of the Bills' newest signees, H-back Dorin Dickerson. With the type of unique skill-set he has, I wouldn't be surprised at all if he were to make the team outright. He's been getting first team reps each day at practice, and gives Chan Gailey another viable receiving option to play with that could stretch a defense. He just seems to be the type Gailey would like to keep around.
For the not-so-good days, I'd have to start with Chris Hairston. He has the toughest assignment of any lining up across from Mario Williams every day, but a couple times it just wasn't even a contest. Williams blew right by Hairston for an obvious sack a pair of times. I don't even think Hairston got a hand on him.
Once Erik Pears is back, Hairston will be in a training camp battle against Cordy Glenn for the starting left tackle job according to the head coach. When asked about it today, Gailey said he wasn't sure who would win the starting job. Glenn took every single rep at left tackle with the first team that the media was allowed to see.
Finally, Leodis McKelvin had his old bugaboo creep up on him today. On two separate occasions the cornerback was right where he needed to be to make a play, but the receiver went over the top of him to make the play and come down with the ball. The most notable one occurred early on when Donald Jones caught the ball while McKelvin had his back to Ryan Fitzpatrick. He did make a play in a similar instance as the practice progressed.
With mini-camp now all wrapped up, the Bills have a little over a month to soak up the last ounce of their off-season. The next time they get back to work is when they report for training camp on July 25 at St. John Fisher College. The first practice session is on July 26.

I want my mom to be there during labor and delivery. My husband is all but marking his territory by peeing in the snow. Help!
Dear Kate undies are not only leak-free and stain-proof, but also modern and sexy in design. These undies are perfect for women who suffer from mild urinary incontinence and a strong period flow and need extra protection. It's common for moms to experience urinary stress incontinence for years after childbirth and these high-performance undies are a life-saver.
Welcome to a new, on-going series about the most common (and maybe some uncommon) fears we deal with regarding pregnancy. This is a safe space for some sympathy, comradery and friendly head pats with people who have Been There, Are There, or who are just plain scared about Going There. This first installment is about the fear of infertility.

The bottle shaped plastic UE phones come at a $50 premium to the q-Jays at $229.99, but how do they stack up the the cheaper Swedish earphones?

In the spirit of Christmas giving, Emery County Care and Rehab has challenged Pinnacle Nursing and Rehab to a food drive.
The care center donating the most non-perishable food in pounds by the 19th of this month will win the competition.
The winners will get the talented administrator from the other facility to provide entertainment for the residents and staff during one meal. So the real question is.... will it be Al or Alec?
Everyone in both communities is invited to contribute to the competition and see the results.
Take non-perishable food to the collection boxes at either center.
Since the food banks are the spotlighted charities of the month, both counties will benefit regardless of who wins. Donations will be taken through Dec. 19 with the official weights revealed on the 20th.
For questions in Carbon County call 637-9213. In Emery County call 384-2301.
Care center administrators said, "Thank you for your support. We care because you care."

Next generation take to the stage on day two
30 November 2013
The second day of the British Gas ASA National Age Group Synchronised Swimming Championships in Gloucester saw the next generation of athletes step up to showcase their skills.
The day began with Figures a competition that assesses each age group's ability to perform required Figures. The scores from each athlete's Figures were added to their Solo and Duet scores.
Corrie Leech secured the gold medal in the 15-17 years Solo with an impressive performance that showcased her skills to perfection.
Leech competed at the European Junior Championships earlier this year and has been training at the High Performance Centre with the senior British athletes.
The Bristol Central athlete demonstrated good height and difficulty throughout her routine and was rewarded with a total of 70.7333 and won gold with a combined score of 137.6792.
"The theme of my routine is Iron Man because I like the film," Leach said. "I have been really working on my height and presentation through the event. I want to really express myself throughout the routine.
"Working at the High Performance Centre and at European Juniors has given me more confidence and improved my strength and approach to synchro.
"I feel amazing right now because this is my first National title."
The silver went to City of Birmingham's Phoebe Bradley-Smith who performed a powerful routine to score 132.9061. Walsall's Eleanor Holder scored a total of 131.3183.
After coming first in the 13-14 years Figure competition, Rebecca Richardson cemented her place on the title in her age group with a strong performance in the solo.
City of Leeds' Richardson swam an excellent routine and scored best in her Artistic Impression. She finished to a combined score of 132.0778.
"I felt like that was a strong swim," Richardson said. "I got a good Figures score so I didn't feel nervous for the routine. I went into it with confidence and I put more performance into the routine.
"I was happy with the scores and this is my first age group title. I nailed my corrections but I have more things to work on for next year."
The silver went to Chloe Shortman (Bristol Central) after scoring a combined total of 131.9370 and improved on her Figures ranking of fifth.
Reading Royals' Emma Critchley took the final position on the podium with 128.0554 points after scoring 63.9000 for her Solo routine.
In the youngest age group of the competition Isabelle Thorpe and Kate Shortman (Bristol Central) won the gold medal with a score of 130.1275.
The pair went into the final as reigning champions and looked confident from the start of their fun and lively routine.
"We felt confident about the swim today," Thorpe said. "We swam for each other as this is the last year in this age group."
"The Duet is a fun event to swim because you have each other for support and we get on so the swim is good," Shortman said. "Today we had good timing and got our corrections. We really enjoy that routine."
Bristol Central's Danielle Lloyd and Jemima Langton won the silver medal with 117.6343 points and bronze went to Abigail Taylor and Mimi Gray (Reading Royals) after scoring 116.7131.
City of Leeds' Jessica Ranson and Rosie Barrington finished first in the 18-19 years Duet with a score of 127.5466.
City of Leeds' Rosie Barrington took the title in the 18-19 year age group with a strong emotive routine.
Barrington, who is a previous British silver medallist, swam a well executed routine with good height and intensity throughout.
"I am really happy," Barrington said. "The piece is called two steps from hell and I really enjoyed it. The figure in the middle is my favourite bit because of how it flows and travels through the pool. I think my facial expressions and my intensity throughout the routine were the best bits."

UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon has declared 2012 the "Year of Prevention." Nearly a year ago the Security Council resolved to intervene militarily in Libya, invoking the principle of the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) the civilian population of Libya against its government. Uprisings in the Middle East continue to spark debates about the use of R2P and humanitarian intervention as a foreign policy tool.
In this event, Netherlands Ambassador Herman Schaper will focus on the increasing role of R2P in international relations, and some of the difficult ethical questions that arise as a consequence.

"I got these for my friend. He loves them!! The only problem was that the back was kind of rough and it would scrape his heel but he fixed that by wearing loafer socks with them & attaching a heel grip to the back. They are very cute & stylish. They look great with shorts and khakis. He is very happy with them and they are exactly what he wanted."

Many people marked the 10th anniversary of the Columbia shuttle disaster Friday. We asked on Twitter and Facebook what NASA's mission should be today.
For one, NASA's mission should not be to hitch rides into space using communist rockets.
NASA should be the leader in space exploration.
— @ronbo1959
Should NASA focus on manned or unmanned exploration? Whichever is cheapest. At this point, there are more pressing matters.
— @TylerStocks3
The Columbia disaster should never deter anyone from exploring space. May the crew of Columbia, Challenger and Apollo 1 rest in peace, and may their spirits live on in the legacy of discovery.
— Michael Suchocki
It would be cool to colonize Mars. Maybe Americans would come together in another space race!
— @CKStratford
Go, go, Opportunity, go ("NASA's older Mars rover notches another milestone")!
What a little engine that could! It's stunning to realize NASA's other Mars rover has been there for nine years and is starting its 10th. Just amazing!
— Martin L. Cahn
Letter to the editor:
Safety for astronauts should certainly be a major issue for NASA ("NASA's mission is not safety: Column").
But we must remember that unavoidable dangers may be expected to exist in all areas of the unknown.
Were we unwilling to take a reasonable amount of risk in human innovation, we would still be in the middle ages.

text: Piero Testa was based in Rome where he shared an interest in the classical tradition with artists such as Nicholas Poussin and Claude Lorrain. At the end of his short life he was better regarded as a print maker and draughtsman, having suffered from a lack of patrons for his painting. He was found drowned in the River Tiber aged 37. The massacre of the innocents is the story of King Herod's slaughter of the infants of Bethlehem. The beatific infants, the first martyrs in heaven, watch the dramatic tableau on the step of Herod's palace. The lamb clutched to the angel's breast symbolises innocence and sacrifice. The angled composition allows us to witness the escape of Mary and Joseph and the infant Jesus, and juxtaposes the dramatic foreground with the classical landscape.

Canucks Trade a 2nd Round Pick and Kevin Connauton to Dallas, Acquire Derek Roy
Thomas Drance
April 02 2013 11:05AM
Derek Roy battles new teammate Jason Garrison for the puck.
The Canucks have made a splash a day before the trade deadline, acquiring Derek Roy from the Dallas Stars in exchange for a 2nd round pick and blueline prospect Kevin Connauton.
On first blush this trade is a very good one for Mike Gillis and the Canucks. Derek Roy is having himself a hell of a season in Dallas this year playing second line minutes at even-strength, and second unit minutes on both the penalty-kill and the power-play. Despite facing the second toughest minutes among all Stars centreman and sporting a cool 42% offensive zone start rate, Roy has driven play and offense for Dallas all season.
Post now updated with analysis and words and stuff. Read past the jump.
Derek Roy is a bit undersized (5,9) but he plays a gritty game and certainly holds his own. He draws penalties at an absurd rate - a testament to his speed - and he's consistently ended up in the black by the possession numbers. Roy's not just a play driving forward with no offensive upside he's a very legitimate top-six centreman. In the BehindtheNet era Roy has produced three seventy-point seasons and most promising of all: none of them required outrageously inflated percentages.
The Canucks need at centre had become so great over the past month, that I'd have been happy with Mike Gillis adding any type of NHL calibre body. Instead he's added a really good player in Derek Roy, and he didn't have to pay through the nose to do so.
The only downside to this move is that Derek Roy is not a particularly strong faceoff man. I tend to think faceoffs are overvalued anyway, but without doubt this is a phase of the game where the Canucks have struggled mightily in the absence of Ryan Kesler and Manny Malhotra this season. Roy is a tick below 50% in the circle over the past four seasons, so while he's not a solution necessarily, he'll at least offer the team a massive improvement over what they've recieved from Andrew Ebbett (37%) and Jordan Schroeder (43%) of late.
In terms of price, I think Mike Gillis made out pretty damn well in a sellers market. With depth defenseman netting two second round picks, and over the hill third-line forwards netting B+ prospects on this year's trade market - Mike Gillis paid a 23 year old prospect with limited two-way value and a second round pick for Derek Roy. Anyway you slice it, that's some solid work by Vancouver's General Manager.
On Kevin Connauton, we had him ranked as Vancouver's 6th best prospect this past summer. At the time he was coming off of his best season of professional hockey and had appeared to take a big step forward under the tutelage of defensive-minded headcoach Craig MacTavish. Connauton followed up on his strong sophmore campaign by underwhelming this season in Chicago.
Connauton is a really strong skater with a dangerous slapshot, and he has NHL size too. He's a relatively capable power-play quarterback and that alone makes him a legitimate prospect, albeit not a guy who really projects as a top-four defenseman at the NHL level.
A converted forward, Connauton's issue has always been his defensive play which regressed again this season. While Connauton's production has picked up of late, he also struggled offensively for a while too this season. According to Wolves Play-by-Play guy Jason Shaver, Connauton went through a bit of a crisis of identity in the early going this season - where he was focussing so much on his defensive play that he wasn't playing to his strengths as a hockey player.
Connauton might figure it out in Dallas, or he might not. At this point he's not a huge loss for the Canucks prospect pool, though I tend to think he does have some offensive value. That the Canucks chose to sign Cam Barker rather than give Kevin Connauton a cup of coffee back in January, suggests that Connauton didn't really factor into Vancouver's long-term plans anyway.
As for the second round pick, it's essentially a lottery ticket and well worth the cost of doing business for a rental of Roy's calibre. We'll have to see how Derek Roy fits in, but on paper he's pretty much exactly what the doctor ordered for this iteration of the Canucks.
April 02 2013, 12:08PM
Man, a top-three defence of Bieska, Hamhus and Taniv?
Add Garehtson and Edlur and maybe make a trade for Kambell and the Canuks would be lethal.
Not a fan of this, how will this fill a gritty third line Center role, is he playing second line with Kesler on the wing? If so who is filling the third line Center gap. Prospect pool gets smaller and smaller and our future gets dimmer and dimmer
It is a start. I still think that we would do well to pick up Clowe. Should this season end in tatters (like last playoffs) I think that the team should look to rebuild. Only players that I would 100% keep would be: Sedin(s), Burrows, Schneider, Higgy, Bieska, Taniv, Hamhus, Edler. The rest I would trade for picks and hope to rebuild into something better.
Not sure about this one! I really don't like the concept of rentals (and thought Gillis didn't either) if the team isn't that close to winning it all. But considering that he didn't have to give up all that much, it's not too bad!
April 02 2013, 12:06PM
Not feeling great about the rental aspect of this. But a good trade IF we can somehow re-sign him.
On another note, impressive work getting this article up so quickly Thom!
I'm not sure why everyone is assuming Roy is a rental. Assuming he can be re-signed for somewhere in the neighborhood of $5m/year (the Canucks' cap climate makes this a prerequisite), and assuming that Luongo and Ballard are gone, two more things are quite possible:
-Mason Raymond has priced himself out of a re-signing, and
-David Booth, while awesome, is less important to the team than a guy like Roy could be.
If you assume Luongo, Ballard, and Raymond all leaving makes enough room to re-sign everybody we need to (Tanev, Lapierre, Schroeder), then dumping Booth to fit Roy is 100% doable, especially for Gilman. The question just becomes, which do you want to keep?
@data junkie
only reason why Dallas traded him because he was adament on going to market July 1st.
the Canucks pretty much aquired an older version of Coho.
Fair price for Vancouver - Connauton has a great point shot and is a PP asset but has never shown the acuity for playing in his own end necessary to earn an NHL spot. He still has NHL upside, for sure, so he's not a lottery ticket for the Stars, but it's not a piece the Canucks couldn't afford to part with.
As far as Roy goes, he was near the bottom of my list of 5 possible players who could help Vancouver at centre (the top being Vermette and Ott), largely because I thought the cost would be higher to get him (it reportedly will take more to acquire Jagr). Roy is essentially an improved version of Jordan Schroeder - if the Canucks didn't trust Schroeder as a rookie to play significant minutes in the playoffs, and I can see that, this is an easy upgrade.
From here, Roy fills in for Kesler on line 2 until Kesler returns. Then he drops down to line 3 between Hansen and Raymond, and line 3 acts as a "line 2B", another scoring line. line 4 is your checking line. Not sure how that pans out in the playoffs (probably not well against, say, Los Angeles but perhaps better against, say, Minnesota, Detroit or SJS). But as Kesler's line is often used in a shut-down role anyway, it just makes sense to me.
Either way, if the Canucks don't get healthy again pretty soon, they're out in round 1 regardless, and they just wasted a pick and a prospect. And either way, if they could get Roy for this price, they could probably have gotten Vermette, who for me would've been a better fit for the team's needs.
April 02 2013, 12:19PM
@ Daniel W. Perhaps Gillis knows more than we do and they already talked contract business with Roy!?
Nevertheless, I am happy they picked up a playmaking centre. Now we have options. Kesler can play on Roy's wing. Or Kesler can play as the other 2nd line centre in a shutdown role (with for instance Hansen and Higgins) while Roy plays with Raymond +1 (Kassian?, Booth). Or perhaps even Clowe? ;-)
The old thinking of lines 1, 2, 3, 4 is well, just that, old. It's all more fluid. Let's just hope Kesler can return to his 2011 play-off form.
Hey, I don't disagree it's less-than-likely, but Gilman has managed to convince people to sign for less than the highest bid in order to play with a decent team before!
that's what I'm hoping for...
April 02 2013, 12:28PM
Fan-effing-tastic, this will help bridge the gap until some of the boys get healthy and really shore up the middle for something significant in the playoffs. Can't wait to see what's next.
He apparently wants $6m. Maybe if we could give him some term he'd sign for 5-5.5. It would mean losing Raymond and Higgins though.
@data junkie
that was Gilman signing replacement level players (Higgins and Lappy) that wasn't going to get a lot of money in the market. Roy is a completely different case and doesn't have ay ties to the franchise or city.
Probably a rental since Roy wants 6mill/year for 4 years. Canucks probably think he will like playing in Vancouver and his asking price will drop.
The other issue is that he can ASK for $6m/ year, but there are going to be very few teams who can afford that under next year's cap... he might find $5m/year with the Canucks to be one of the better deals out there.
April 02 2013, 01:19PM
Unless that 2nd round pick turns into something amazing, I think GMMG got a great deal here. Connauton is a left handed dman. With Hamhius, Garrison, Edler, Bieska and Tanev leaps and bounds ahead of Connauton on the depth charts, he was never going to get much a chance to make the team anyway.
Good trade.
April 02 2013, 01:44PM
@data junkie
Assuming Raymond signs elsewhere, and Ballard, Booth and Lou are moved/bought out the Canucks have 46.62 million committed to 11 players(according to capgeek) Sedins, Kesler, Burrows, Kassian, Hansen, Bieska, Hamhius, Edler, Garrison and Schneider. That 46.62 million will most likely be a higher number if you consider the Canucks will take on some salary with Luo's trade.
Tanev needs to be resigned as RFA's(the rest I excluded. The Canucks of course have other RFA's, but those are contracts likely to be less than a 1 million dollar cap hit. I am guessing Tanev will be around 1.5-1.75 million.
So by my count the Canucks will have to sign 6 forwards, a d-man, and a backup goalie. All with just under 16 million dollars.
So there is room for Roy, but I think his 5+ million is better spent elsewhere.
April 02 2013, 01:51PM
Damnit Higgins...Make that 5 forwards with 13.5 million.
People forget that a good 3rd line center doesn't have to be 6'4", 230 lbs. Dave Bolland is a classic example of an undersized 3rd line center who's still very effective - and he weighs the same as Roy. Granted, Bolland's 3" taller, and they aren't quite the same player, but Roy is pretty effective as a two-way center and has played the second toughest minutes for Dallas centers this year.
Gillis has hit it out of the park with this one. Roy was just what the doctor ordered. He also paid peanuts to get him. That 2nd will be forgettable and Connauton, while he still might make the NHL someday, is still kind of a risky project prospect.
I can't wait to see Roy down the middle with Kesler streaking down the wing.

Customer Reviews
Comments: I haven't used a Camera in a while. My last unit was a black and white model that was very heavy and difficult to handle. I saw this model and decided to purchase. I was very excited to receive it and as soon as it arrived, I wanted to take it out of the box and check it out. After reading a poorly written instruction manual I connected everything and tried to turn the unit on. Problem was it would not work! No picture, only a blue screen with the word AV1 displayed. The nest day, I called Marcum customer service to get help. Turns out from where I work to there building is, is only a short distance. They were kind enough to let me come over and wait while they resolved the issue. They did fix and the unit does work fine now, but I was told this unit is no longer being made. They are coming out with another that has more options and displays. If I would have know this, I would have waited to buy. $525 is not a cheap purchase.

National Gallery of Australia unveils rare Japanese treasure
Monday 7 August 2006
DETAIL: 'Pine trees by the shore' c.1550, Muromachi period (1339–1574) Japan, pair of six-fold screens: gold, ink and colour on paper each 175 x 366cm, collection of the National Gallery of Australia Gift of Andrew and Hiroko Gwinnett and the National Gallery of Australia Foundation 2006
The Hon. Alexander Downer, Minister for Foreign Affairs unveiled two rare Japanese screens recently acquired by the National Gallery of Australia on Monday 7 August 2006.
Painted around 1550, the Gallery's new acquisition Pine trees by the shore is a rare example of an intact pair of screens from such an early date. In most cases only single screens from Muromachi pairs from this period survive.
Pine trees by the shore is a pair of gilded screens from Japan's Muromachi period (1392-1573) and arguably the earliest and most significant pair of Japanese screens to enter an Australian public collection. The work presents a vibrant and detailed scene of horses and sailing craft amongst pine trees on the bank of an inlet. To have a complete pair of screens dating from the mid 16th century, as the Gallery now does, is very rare indeed.
The subject of pine trees by a shore, or hamamatsu, is a popular theme in Japanese art. The evergreen pine tree (matsu) is a symbol of youth and longevity and dignity. The earliest known surviving hamamatsu screen is from the fifteenth century and is in the collection of the Tokyo National Museum.
Japanese folding screens are known as byobu, or protection from the wind. They function as an integral part of interior space and are designed to serve as room dividers as well as objects of beauty. Most painted screens were commissioned by wealthy patrons and embellished to suit their purpose with themes selected according to whether the screens were for public or private spaces.
The screens have been acquired through the generous assistance of the National Gallery of Australia Foundation benefactors Mr Andrew Gwinnett and Mrs Hiroko Gwinnett. Long standing members of the Foundation, Mr and Mrs Gwinnett have generously supported the development of the Gallery's collection through important gifts.

Hi there--
I haven't been scrapping for quite a while, but I'm back and wondering if I might participate in the SG Challenge for October, November, and December? (I would absolutely be willing to fore go participation in the drawing for prizes since I haven't participated for the full year.)
My daughter graduated high school in 2008 and I just don't have the continuous photo-ops that I used to have. It's a challenge to find photos on a regular basis-- I'm at risk of becoming the "scary cat lady" when I scrap. But, I have missed the process of scrapping and the friendships that I found here at Scrapgirls a couple years back.
Late Starter?

A relatively strong economy and decreased rail network congestion helped drive a solid increase in per-share earnings and revenues for Genesee & Wyoming Inc. in the second quarter, beating Street estimates.
G&W reported adjusted net income of $63.8 million. That compares with adjusted net income of $57.6 million in the second quarter of 2013. Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased to $1.12, compared with $1.01 in the same quarter last year.
The company reported a more than 3 percent increase in total operating revenues to $414.6 million from $400.6 million.
Analysts had expected diluted earnings per share of $1.11 on revenues of $411.13 million.
"In the second quarter, we were engaged in three key initiatives," President and CEO Jack Hellmann said in a statement. "First, we successfully commenced operations on the RCP&E railroad in June and we are now actively working with our Class I partners to provide the necessary supply of railcars and locomotives to move another strong grain harvest in South Dakota."
G&W completed the refinancing of its credit facility, Hellman added, and the company continued to evaluate multiple acquisition and investment opportunities worldwide.
The company's traffic in the second quarter increased 6 percent to 509,631 carloads, primarily due to increases of coal and coke traffic in the Midwest and Ohio Valley region.
For the six-month period, total revenue increased to $790.8 million from $775.6 million in the same time period last year.
Hellman noted that while G&W's North American business outlook remains favorable in 2014, the closure and temporary closure of mines in Australia will result in a decline of $5 million in revenues over the remainder of the year.
Connecticut-based G&W (NYSE: GWR), which has its administrative base in Rochester, owns and operates short-line and regional freight railroads in the United States, Canada, the Netherlands and Australia.
Shares of its stock were down nearly 4 percent to $96.04 in midday trading.

Great shoe for work or play
"I bought this shoe last summer and it lasted all summer and not a day more! As my go to summer shoe for work, I wore them a lot. Very comfy. Slightly long but I didn't mind as my feet spread as the day goes on and the extra length helped. Great for work or casual."

Cute but slippy
"I loved these shoes - they look dressy and chic. Very comfy too. When I walked around in them in the store on carpet they were fine, but at home on tile and hardwood floors they were very slippy - no traction. Due to the design of the heel and the material of the sole I felt like I could take a nasty and embarrassing fall. Had to return them. Sigh."

From the looks of it the "D"(imension?) Quincy is extensively using it (his armor is covered with black holes, perhaps portals) and he currently is in Kurotsuchi's laboratory, plus he seems to be the only one to freely manipulate them (like the moment he interrupted Hashvalt's and Bazz-B's quarrel.
Not quite, there can be multiple people holding the same letter/shrift, like Bach and Uryu, some of the SR girls also had letters that some males had, from what I remember. From the looks of it, the Old Man Gunner might also hold quite a high letter, seeing as he was the only SR shown to fluidly transform in and out of his Holy Form during heated battle. In other words, there can be even more than 10 individuals above Bazz-B.
It's probably also safe to assume that all SR of "J" and above can probably enter into their Complete Holy Forms.

More Bling in Sandal
"I bought this sandal because sometimes at events your feet are tired at the end of the night from 4 inch high heels, so I wanted to keep it classy and could not resist this bling sandal. Not sure when I will wear them but at least my feet will be preparedplus they were on clearance and I could not resist"

Former CCP Games President Mike Tinney is working with a new studio called Fitness Interactive Experience (FIX) and creating a fitness MMO called UtiliFit. According to our information, Utilifit is being designed to get people up and moving through an 'interactive social media platform'.
Founded in 2012, FIX has recently finished prototyping UtiliFIT, a mobile platform-based activity game that challenges its players to complete micro-physical challenges throughout the day. UtiliFIT enables players to cooperate and compete with each other on a large scale and to interact meaningfully with people around the world while building healthier, more active lives. An early playable beta version of the game will become available in December – just in time for New Year's resolutions and to help offset holiday season weight gains. More information about UtiliFIT can be found at www.utilifit.com.

Perhaps, but without an ingame sensor pad like WiiFit, it will be incredibly easy to cheat and click "done" on any challenge / exercise. Of course if you're actually looking to get some results, there will be no reason to cheat - but everything is speculation on this project atm.
Wait.. wha? Fitness MMO?
How does that work? You log in and it tells you to go to the gym, then cuts your internet connection, so you have no choice but to work out?
Sounds like an expensive grind to me..
Why not just go exercise every day? That's what I do. Crossfit.
BestSigEver :P
They'll tag just about anything as a MMO these days, good lord.

You know what's fun about chaos? I do, but I won't tell.
