Market check: Greece's Athex Composite is slumping 6.4%. Why, exactly? No reason except traders' latest fear of Europe's economic mess. It may not even be entirely the euro-zone crisis. Italy is grabbing headlines as its politicians' coalition-forming efforts have stalled. Cyprus' bailout raises the question of who pays the next time a country faces a banking crisis. But as Brian Blackstone points out in this morning's Ahead of the Tape column, it might not matter if Europe's economy wasn't such a mess. "Even stable GDP, when it arrives, would be little cause for cheer," he writes. Euro-zone output would need to rise by 2% to make a dent in unemployment, but that's nowhere to be seen and might not be for years. "Europe's crisis responders have found ways to put out fires at the last minute, keeping the euro intact. Unless they can help turn around the bloc's grim growth prospects, though, the current economic fatigue could become a persistent malaise." Here in teh U.S., looks for Global X FTSE Greece 20 ETF (GREK) to slump early, with smaller declines in the iShares MSCI Italy Capped Index Fund (EWI) and iShares MSCI Spain Capped Index Fund (EWP).
Fund watch: Worried about a stock-market correction? Susquehanna Financial has an idea: Buy put options on the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY). Buying a three-month put option that guards you against drops of roughly 5% or greater costs about 1.30% of the ETF's value, and historically speaking, it's not expensive to do that — the cost is right around the five-year low on a percentage basis of the ETF's price. Of course, you don't buy options solely on the basis of what's happened in the past — you buy them with an eye for what you think is coming in the future. The market consensus is pretty clearly saying Full Steam Ahead for stocks, which is why the options are inexpensive. The consensus is often wrong, and it's worth noting that stocks rarely go straight up, but this selloff, like most any, has been awfully tough to see coming. Maybe it simply won't come at all.
In the news: Solar Funds raises $1.1 billion from investors seeking to buy assets in bankruptcy, reports Bloomberg News.

Revenge will be on the cards for the Crusaders when they take on the Reds in a repeat of last year's Super Rugby final.
Revenge will be on the cards for the Crusaders when they take on the Reds in a repeat of last year's Super Rugby final on Sunday.
The Crusaders are eight points and three places ahead of the Reds on the overall standings, but with the New Zealand conference as tight as it is, the hosts can ill-afford to lose this Round 11 clash.
Of course the same goes for the Reds, who have failed to hit their straps in 2012 with injuries to key personnel and players out of form hampering their season.
But the Queenslanders, who set the tournament alight last year, showed they still have what it takes to win after breaking their Eden Park drought with victory over the Blues last weekend.
Saying that, it seems everyone but the Bulls have found a way to beat the Blues this year, so perhaps we shouldn't read too much into that result.
However, the Crusaders will be wary of a side that they've lost their last three meeting with – albeit all in Brisbane (no Aussie team has beaten the Crusaders in New Zealand since 2004) – and both outfits have made no secret of how much of a grudge match this trans-Tasman clash will be.
In last year's final in Brisbane, the Reds prevailed 18-13 to wreck the Crusaders' hopes of a fairytale end to a traumatic year in which the Christchurch earthquakes forced them to play every game away. Crusaders prop Ben Franks recalls that loss as the "final kick in the guts" in an emotional and physically draining year – and now it's payback.
The seven-time Super Rugby champs once again have a home stadium and in recent weeks have shown they are building towards the form that's made them the most successful Super Rugby franchise.
It's the first of five home games for Todd Blackadder's men in the run to the playoffs and judging by their recent form it's going to take a very good team to beat them.
"The Reds twice last year got the wood on us, but welcome to Christchurch and to our home and that's something we couldn't do last year," said Blackadder.
"There's nothing better than playing the champions. Last year was last year and we've definitely put that behind us.
"This year provides a whole lot of new opportunities. It's fabulous to be playing Sunday afternoon in Christchurch before a full house – there seems to be an appetite for Sunday afternoon rugby so hopefully someone will look at that."
Prediction: The Reds will put up a good fight, but we think the Crusaders will deliver the knock-out blow in the final quarter of the match and run away with it. Crusaders by nine!
The teams:
Crusaders: 15 Israel Dagg, 14 Sean Maitland/Adam Whitelock, 13 Robbie Fruean, 12 Dan Carter, 11 Zac Guildford, 10 Tom Taylor, 9 Andy Ellis, 8 Kieran Read (c), 7 Matt Todd, 6 George Whitelock, 5 Luke Romano, 4 Tom Donnelly, 3 Owen Franks, 2 Corey Flynn, 1 Ben Franks.
Replacements: 16 Ben Funnell, 17 Wyatt Crockett, 18 Samuel Whitelock, 19 Richie McCaw, 20 Willi Heinz, 21 Ryan Crotty, 22 Tom Marshall.
Reds: 15 Luke Morahan, 14 Dom Shipperley, 13 Anthony Faingaa, 12 Mike Harris, 11 Digby Ioane, 10 Ben Lucas, 9 Will Genia, 8 Scott Higginbotham, 7 Liam Gill, 6 Jake Schatz, 5 James Horwill (c), 4 Rob Simmons, 3 James Slipper, 2 James Hanson, 1 Greg Holmes.
Replacements: 16 Saia Faingaa, 17 Albert Anae, 18 Adam Wallace-Harrison, 19 Radike Samo, 20 Eddie Quirk, 21 Nick Frisby, 22 Rod Davies.

Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment partners with Virgin Blue to bring the highest grossing film of all time, AVATAR to Australian shores on Blu-ray and DVD29/04/2010
The home entertainment release of the blockbuster AVATAR will be marked by a unique stunt created by Twentieth Century Fox and Virgin Blue Airlines
Sydney, Australia (29 April, 2010) – The highest grossing film of all time, AVATAR will be available on Blu-ray and DVD on April 29, 2010 in Australia. To mark the release of the record breaking film, Twentieth Century Fox has aligned with Virgin Blue to fly AVATAR into the hands and homes of Australians nationwide.
There are many strands to this strategic corporate partnership that aim to raise awareness of the release of AVATAR, led by a unique PR stunt, which is taking place on the day of the AVATAR DVD and Blu-Ray launch, 29 April 2010.
This activity will reveal a Virgin Blue Boeing 737 transformed into an Avatar inspired jet. 20 lucky AVATAR enthusiasts who won competitions around the country will be the first to fly in the jet from Brisbane to Sydney. The winners will be accompanied by Virgin Blue Crew, Virgin Blue VIPs, 20th Century Fox VIPs and media.
To ensure that the experience remains AVATAR inspired, the 20 competition winners and members of the Virgin Blue crew will be made-up prior to the flight to look like their very own Na'vi AVATAR for this once in a lifetime opportunity.
Once the Virgin Blue Boeing 737 has landed in Sydney a unique photo shoot opportunity for media will take place with four Na'vi-inspired actors and the plane.
Kristen McGrath, Associate Director of Publicity and Promotions for Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment comments: "It seems only appropriate that the launch of the highest grossing film of all time in Australia should be marked with such a unique event. To partner with Virgin Blue, an airline that is renowned for pushing the boundaries, to recreate the amazing aesthetics of the film during the stunt only further reinforces the creativity of the film. The launch of AVATAR on DVD and Blu-ray allows fans to return to the world of Avatar in the comfort of their own home as the land of Pandora comes alive in their living rooms"
The strategic campaign between Virgin Blue and Twentieth Century Fox will also include:
•·In-flight promotions
·Consumers who purchase the AVATAR Blu-ray DVD can redeem $50 towards a Virgin Blue 'Blue Holiday'
•·In-flight TV advertising
·The partnership will be promoted to consumers with an in-flight commercial running on aircraft for one month on Virgin Blue's Voyeur channel.
•·Messaging on boarding passes
•·POS in airports & lounges
To reinforce the commitment to consumer engagement in the partnership, Virgin Blue is offering competition entrants the chance to win one of five exclusive VIP AVATAR Experiences in LA.
Details of the competition are at www.virginblue.com.au/avatar
Heather Jeffery, Virgin Blue General Manager of PR & Communications comments: "We're very particular about who and what appears on the exterior of our aircraft, last year our Black Eyed Peas jet was hugely popular and this year we're thrilled to be part of the continuing excitement about AVATAR."
"This is a broad ranging promotional partnership and our team are having great fun with it. Twentieth Century Fox's AVATAR is a ground-breaking film that pushes the boundaries and at Virgin, we can certainly relate to that."
"This is the start of the partnership with the epic film as we offer our loyal Guests exclusive opportunities to engage and enjoy the movie."
•The must-own AVATAR Blu-ray release provides the ultimate high definition experience ever for home viewing audiences. Recognized for its optimum picture and sound, the film's masterful cinematography, art direction and visual effects lends itself to awe-inspiring clarity when viewed on Blu-ray Disc.
AVATAR Impact
*Since its global theatrical release last December, AVATAR has continued to make motion picture history. Written and directed by James Cameron and produced with his long-time collaborator Jon Landau, AVATAR stars Sam Worthington, Zoë Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang,
Michelle Rodriguez, Giovanni Ribisi, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Wes Studi and Laz Alonso.
Oscarâ and Golden Globe® winning epic is the highest grossing film of all time, taking in over $2.7 billion (US) in worldwide box office with over $1.9 billion (US) derived from international markets. Director James Cameron takes audiences to a spectacular world beyond imagination, where a reluctant hero embarks on a journey of redemption and discovery as he leads a heroic battle to save a civilization.

καὶ σπλαγχνισθεὶς ἐκτείνας τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ἥψατο καὶ λέγε ..... (Mark 1:41 N-A28)
Most English language Bible versions render σπλαγχνισθεὶς to say something as or akin to "moved with compassion" (e.g., EMTV). But two English versions I've looked at translate σπλαγχνισθεὶς to say "angry" (so in ERV and LEB). I've searched several mss dated to the period 150-475 CE (namely, from Papyrus Egerton 2 to codex 02/A), and the Vulgate, but I have yet to locate a document that indicates Jesus became angry (σκυθρωπός(?)) at the leper.
Q: from which "great Catholic" codex or other manuscript came the notion that Jesus became "angry" at the leper?

Theater, Festivals and more!
For lovers of theater, there are several companies to choose from in Asheville. One is the highly respected North Carolina Stage Company, a relative newcomer to the city's vibrant theatrical arts scene. Newer still is the Altamont Theatre Company, a black-box musical theatre downtown.
Flat Rock Playhouse was designated The State Theatre of North Carolina in 1961. The state's longest running Shakespeare festival is operated by the Montford Park Players, who stage the Bard's plays all summer, for free, in Montford Park in downtown Asheville. Asheville Community Theatre keeps a busy performance schedule all year long.
If festivals are more your fashion, the Dry Ridge Inn is a delightful place to decamp from.
It's a quick zip to Black Mountain, where for nearly two decades the Lake Eden Arts Festival (pictured) has been attracting people who love its spirited celebration of music, dancing, healing modalities and regional and world folk arts. If your tastes run more to the zany, you'll love LAAFF, the artist-run, do-it-yourself Lexington Avenue Arts and Fun Festival held in early fall in downtown Asheville.
Asheville's annual Greek Festival ushers in fall with heaping platters of pastichio ( a steaming baked casserole of ground beef and macaroni). The HardLox Jewish Food and Heritage Festivalin October serves up tall corned beef sandwiches on rye, as well as delicious potato knishes and latkes.
Beer-lovers won't want to miss the Beer City Festival in June orBrewgrass in June, one of the largest beer and music festivals in the region. Both feature the best of craft beer made by the many breweries in – and outside of - the area. The city's family-friendly Bele Chere festival, held the last weekend in July, is the Southeast largest outdoor festival, featuring free concerts - and plenty of street entertainment!
If you still have any energy after all of that, don't forget the Mountain Sports Festival in Asheville, a weekend in May full of culture, athletics, music, food, drink and more.

Everyone would already have noticed, but lately users can't posts any releases anymore. This is because someone is reserving the releases for it's own. Today I have tested this with the release of Bleach 544 by Mangastream. This was released today at 4:51am PDT, and I've posted it at 4:52 PDT (It happened accidentally, I've renewed the page four times in a row and it jumped up between them). It basically not possible to post it in less than a minute. But the database says it's already added, I would say it is broken, but it is noticeable that this happens only with releases with a standard release time and with that moderator active.
The only way it's possible is with posting the release before it's released (reserving it), and this would explain the suspicious 10-15 minutes delay that it's moderated.
To make things worser it's for personal gain, it's really noticeable that their is only one download link. And that your basically are forced to use the adfly link, so that this moderator can runs his bushiness. As proof I would say that he's always the first in comment section. And with the stuff that isn't mainstream, well, he let them wait and doesn't moderate them until I'm in bed. Also, why does Mangashare allow it? And how can a moderator, moderate his own posts? It's the same as not moderating it at all.
Anyway, which admin checks other users/moderators that they don't break the rules?
Check the fifth rule of the general rules, please. http://www.mangashare.com/forums/thr...ated-08-12-09)
I consider that everyone can read English.
A small notice, that reader link that is generally used is only decoration, you won't wait until the release is added on Mangashare for reading it. Everyone that is at least a bit smart would just open the reader page and waits until it pops up.

Import MRI, CT and microCT data
I want to simulate 3D blood flow in the carotid artery.I made the geometry that I got from the CT angiography by using CATIA,but it can not be made precisely.I read in the "cad import and features" pdf that we can Import MRI, CT and microCT data via Mimics to Comsol.but I dont know how...
whould you please help me..

Re: Import MRI, CT and microCT data
Hi Maral,
I don't know if you're still working on this project, but if you are and haven't made progress here, then maybe this information will help.
What you want to do is to use the loft command, but it's not simple or easy. Refer to the 3.5a Matlab Interface document and go to page102 for the "Images, Interpolation, and MRI Data"
On page 105, COMSOL gives an example using the built in MRI data that comes with MATLAB. If you try this, I recommend in step 5 (page 106), that you show your value of k, so you know which kf value needs to be changed. Note, this is indicated by giving you a warning, but the code will continue to run.
And I wish I could give you some advice on steps 7-9, setting up the appropriate el values with the right matrix sizes that are created by the repmat commands... well, that's how I stumbled onto your question. Let me know if this is old news to you and you've already done this and you could provide some hints!
Note, as of right now, COMSOL 4.0 and 4.0a do not support the loft commands, so this needs to be done in COMSOL 3.5a. Luckily, a document COMSOL posted months ago, said they plan on supporting the loft command when 4.1 comes out... which should be any day now.
PS, I ran this example on a server license of MATLAB (there was only 1 license). I couldn't get it to work without erroring out at the same line in the example every single time - the error was that there was only one license and it was in use. That required me going to COMSOL's support team.
Anyway, I hope some of this can help you.

Re: Import MRI, CT and microCT data
Hi Ben
I am trying to reconstruct a 3D model from 2D MRI slices. I need to import the the 3D model to comsol and I am having trouble with the loft command too. I get the following error 'Lofting between objects with different number of edges not supported'. Let me know if you were successful in using that function!

Re: Import MRI, CT and microCT data
Hi Shivangi,
I think I can help (maybe). It sounds like you need to tune your keepfrac values (this is the kf matrix).
First, If you open the COMSOL 3.5a Reference Guide and go to the pdf page 295 (listed as page 281 in the manual), you'll see the explanation of the LOFT command. On the third page of instructions for the loft command, there are several short examples which try to address how to loft between edges.
However, I didn't feel that I had a clear understanding when I received the same error you did. So I contacted COMSOL tech support and this is their response:
A crucial part of the MRI import is to tune the value of keepfrac (kf) so that every created curve object consists of the same number of segments. After running flim2curve, simply type
to view the number of boundary segments that each curve consists of. If there are curves with different number of segments, change the kf vector until all curves consist of the name number of segments (increase keepfrac
to to increase the number of segments and vice versa). It should be possible to make a while loop that varies kf for each segment until the desired number of segments is produced.
It may not be necessary to provide an 'el' struct, this is only necessary if you like to "rotate" during a loft from one section to another. To view the actual numbering of edges, use the command
For a simple case, the dvr cell array can be constructed as follows:
dz = 10; % Distance for each loft
n_image = 25; % Number of slices
dvr = {repmat(dz,1,n_image-1),repmat(0,2,n_image),repmat(0,1,n_image)};
This command uses "no tilt" and "no rotation" (V and R matrices, respectively).
(This information is from Anders Ekerot)
I hope this helps! I hope COMSOL also sees the thread and add more to the LOFT explanation or process for future version of COMSOL and their documentation. And if the folks at COMSOL already have, thank you! Please direct us to the new documentation!
Also, there's a company called Materialize which has a software called MIMICS which will upload MRI/CT images (and many other types too) and will very quickly generate a model of interest. Then in the Materialize software, there's 3-matics, which will produce a smoothed/reduced surface/volume mesh and export the resulting geometry/mesh for COMSOL.

I've posted, in the Model Exchange, a method and example of using MATLAB and some free MATLAB libraries to take points on serial sections, loft into NURBS, and then import them into COMSOL. This process may be useful for your situation.

Dell XPS 13
I'd happily recommend this touchscreen laptop and Windows 10 as a great way to get serious work done at a desk or on the road.
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.

|In response to Re: Toilet Flange
: I am building a new home and doing some of the work myself, particularly the tile in the bathroom. During the plumbing rough-in, my plumber connected the toilet flange. When I tiled the floor, I raised the flange enough to allow the backerboard and tile to slip under it. The flange now sits on top of the tiled floor. My builder noticed it and commented that he would have left it on the subfloor. My question is whether it matters or not if the flange sits on top of the tile or if it would be better if it sits on the subfloor with the tile installed around it.

The Oilers woke up in Smashville (Nashville) this morning, but they probably felt like they were there last night. The Stars punished the Oilers physically last night, and the Oilers were unable to handle it. The biggest farce in the NHL is the inconsistency from building-to-building regarding hits. Whoever was tracking them last night gave the Stars 47 hits and the Oilers 33. That is ridiculous.
Of course the "hits" statistician in Dallas is the most overzealous/bias/kool-aid drinking in the league. For the past five years no NHL team has had a bigger margin of hits-at-home to hits-on-the-road than the Stars. From 2006-2011 the Stars had 564, 482, 209, 452, 492 and 416 more hits at home than on the road.
It is embarrassing that the league doesn't send a memo to Dallas to understand what a hit is. They are so out of whack it's mind-blowing.
Season Hits at home Hits on road Total hits
The road numbers are fairly close between the Stars and the Oilers, but the difference at home is frightening. Did the Stars really deliver 405 more hits at home last year, yet only 13 more on the road than the Oilers. No chance. If the NHL wants people to take their stats more serious, then they need to have better guidlines and ensure they enforce those guidelines.
That being said, even with a statistician who thinks every bump is a hit, it was clear the Stars out hit the Oilers last night.
The sad reality for Oiler fans is that likely won't change any time soon.
Please don't expect Darcy Hordichuk, in five minutes of icetime, to somehow stop the opposing team from delivering clean, hard hits. It won't happen. Hordichuk had three hits in five minutes, and Colten Teubert once again led the hit parade with 6, but the fact is the Oilers don't have many physical players.
Expecting your fourth line to match the physical play of the entire other team is wishful thinking.
The Oilers don't have anyone in their top-nine who is a consistent physical player, so you can't expect the Oilers to respond physically. The Oilers will beat teams with their speed, quickness and skill, but if they get into a physical game they are overmatched.
Last night's outcome could have changed on one play. Had Ryan Smyth been able to bury that wide open wraparound, the game would have been tied at one. Steve Ott wouldn't have scored on the ensuing rush, because the faceoff would have been at centre, and who knows what would have happened. The Oilers will be in games because they have skill, but no one should expect them to respond with lots of physical play, because they just don't have the manpower for that.
Teubert has looked good, and he'll be a guy who hits everyone like Mark Fistric did last night, but right now he's only playing 11-12 minutes a night. Theo Peckham was that guy last year, but he is struggling mightily right now. Andy Sutton is physical, but if he's in then one of Peckham or Teubert will be out, and that still only leaves two guys who play more than ten minutes/game.
The frustrating part of a rebuild for the fans is when reality sets in like in did last night. The Oilers have filled a few voids, improved special teams and faceoffs, but it's impossible to fill all the voids in one summer. The Oilers management has to realize that this team is not built to be a playoff contender, because they strictly aren't big enough, and they will need to rectify that in the coming years; likely through the draft.
Teemu Hartikainen, Tyler Pitlick and Curtis Hamilton are all skilled guys with size, but only Hartikainen might be ready next year. Pitlick could surprise and be ready, but Hamilton isn't a regular in the AHL yet, so it will be a few years before we see him.
When the Oilers come across an opponent like the Stars, and the possibly the Predators tonight, their PP has to score for them to stay in the game. The Oilers were outshot 30-12 at EV last night, but they had over 10 minutes of PP time and couldn't score. They've been very good with the man advantage this year, especially at home, but when they face an aggessive team they need to make them pay with the extra attacker.
So far this year the Oilers have 17 EV/SH goals at home and 16 on the road, but they've scored 13 PP goals at home compared to only 4 on the road. This team will stay competitive this year because on the PP they can use their skill, and don't have to worry as much about being hit.
The Oilers don't have time to feel sorry for themselves, because they are in NashVegas tonight to take on the surging Predators. The Preds are 6-1-3 in their last ten, with all three of those OT/SO loses coming in OT.
Rookie Craig Smith leads the Preds in points with 15, despite this awesome missed goal last week.
I'm sure the Preds have been giving him the gears ever since, but the rookie has been solid. The Preds are still led by their big three: Shea Weber, Ryan Suter and Pekka Rinne. Weber leads the league at +19, has 14 points and plays 26:33/game. Suter is +15, has 13 points and plays a bit more at 27:16/game. No team uses their starting goalie more than Rinne. He's started 18 of the Preds 19 games and he'll start tonight against Devan Dubnyk.
Khabibulin has come back to earth. He wasn't awful last night, but three weeks ago Toby Petersen wouldn't have scored. Dubnyk hasn't started since he gave up six in Boston on November 10th. He came off the bench v. Ottawa last week, but he hasn't had a great game since he stopped 40 of 41 in a victory over Colorado on October 28th. Dubnyk needs a solid outing, and the Oilers need him to play well if they want to avoid their 2nd loss in 24 hours.
Outside of Dubnyk we will see a few other changes. Taylor Chorney was sent back to OKC today, and Alex Plante has been recalled to take his place. Chorney isn't big enough to be a regular NHL D-man. If he had lots of offence you could overlook his size, but he doesn't. Plante has played 8 NHL games and registered 2 points and is an even player. He is still a prospect/suspect at this point, but he's still only 22. At least he'll bring some needed size and muscle. His footspeed is an issue, but he has really improved his competitive play the past few years.
The Oilers won't skate this morning in Nashville, so we won't know who is in or out for sure until closer to game time, but I expect Renney to juggle his roster. I could see him putting Paajarvi back in on the 3rd line and he'll maybe insert Eager. Unless he plays his 4th line more than 5-8 minutes no one should expect the Oilers to be a more physical team tonight.
- Ales Hemsky needs to start shooting more. I know that's nothing new, but in the previous five years he's averaged 2.33 shots/game. This year he has seven shots in 8 1/3 games. (he only played a period v. Minny) He has to start becoming more of a factor in games.
- I'm not saying the Oilers can't muck and grind it with other teams, but they just don't have enough big forwards who can lean on the opposition.
- I understand why Renney uses Belanger to win faceoffs on the PP, but once Ryan Whitney and Corey Potter return I hope he's not out there anymore. Especially if the are changing on the fly and you don't need him to win the draw, because he doesn't have a big enough shot from the point to be effective there. Or at least, he hasn't shown it yet.
- I'm curious if all those who said,"Ryan Jones is an awful hockey player," still feel that way. I find it interesting how few of them have admitted those comments might have been a touch off-base. We've all been wrong before, but I find it interesting how we haven't heard much from that camp. Or the camp who said Nugent-Hopkins was a bad pick because he only had 27 goals last year. It's okay to be wrong, I've been there, but don't think I haven't noticed how those who love to point out when others are wrong haven't said boo about their own misguided projections.
- Kyle Turris might want to hire a new agent. Turris sits out training camp, the preseason and misses the first 19 games of the regular season to get $2.8 million over two years. A $1.4 cap hit sounds about right. He held out to get what he could have got in the summer. Asinine.
GAME DAY PREDICTION: Only Colorado has few home wins than the Predators, and the Oilers will have a much better effort tonight, and they'll win 3-2. Hemsky finally makes an appearance.
OBVIOUS GAME DAY PREDICTION: The cameraman will pan to Carrie Underwood at least four times, not that I'm complaining. We'll also see the TooToo Train take some healthy runs at the Oilers. Tootoo is the exact type of player the Oilers need. He plays hard, hits hard and plays over 13 minutes a night.
NOT-SO-OBVIOUS GAME DAY PREDICTION: Sam Gagner scores his first goal of the season. I have no idea why, just a hunch.
November 22 2011, 09:14PM
Game Day Prediction deserves full props. Wow!
I would have bet my left nut that a 6-1 score wouldn't be possible.
Whew.... you're safe!
...for now.

well... that sucked. how many nuts and bolts can we trade for Weder? all of them?
~~i would give at least 2 super cheese donairs and a warm diet coke for a guy who has a name that makes me think of weed for some reason.
is he at least a good player?~~

It's a league conspiracy. My second cousin's dentist's best friend plays golf with a guy that mows Colin Campbell's lawn.
He is paying off refs I know it.
November 22 2011, 09:52PM
WTF is with Kevin?? Gags makes a great pass and he says"that was Sedin like". If yoiu want to hurt the guy just kick him in the nuts and get it over with..
Riddle me this, did Gagner make a pass knowing that Horcs was there or was he blindly centering the puck after finding himself running out of space. I'd like to think it was more like that backhand pass to Cogs for that overtime goal back then............

I rewinded it a few times, looked to me like Gagner had a peak and new Horcoff was coming eh.
November 22 2011, 10:06PM
@Wanyes bastard child
Agreed he seen Horcoff
IMO it was blind, but theres no pictures on the scoresheet so maybe its a sign of his fortunes changing. Yesterday it might have sent Steve Ott in on a breakaway..... today.... HELLO!
Now if MPS could just get one to bounce in off his head or something his fortunes might change.

I doubt there's any conspiracy, but those refs in Dallas the other night didn't call much, unless it was overt. Plus we couldn't do anything on the PP.
Probably a bit of home team bias, especially considering Dallas' style of play.
November 23 2011, 07:51AM
MP looked involved in the play last night. Hemsky also. Tuebert needs to be careful on the penalty parade. I thought that overall the Oilers played a much simpler road game than in Dallas. RNH reminds me so often of WG that its scary. End of the night you look at the scoresheet and the guy has 2 assists. You ask yourself when did he get those. He is so smooth, sublime, pick an verb. Its that he is so quite about the way he goes about his play on the ice. Nothing too flashy. He just makes the right play and is in the right spot on the ice more often than not. No wasted effort.
Contrast him to Eberle and Hall. Flash and Dash. Those 3 are going to be nightmares for teams in a few years. Eberle is on a sick tear right now. I told mu wife last night that he looks like a young Joey Mullen. The kid has the same wheels and the same grit and sense of the moment. If he is ever as good as MUllen we'll be laughing our way to the SCF more often than not. Eberle is in the zone.

Smythmas is my favourite Holiday. True story.
So we need to win 3 of the next 4 games of November to come out .500 on the Month.
I think it's about time for a 5 game winning streak (Counting last nights win).

On the topic of admitting when you're wrong about someone, I'll stand up and admit that I was totally wrong about Tom Gilbert. His constant giveaways and outright refusal to engage physically made my eyes hurt. All the credit in the world to him for making great strides this year. Someone I was right about was Ryan Jones...I literally didn't understand why some folk felt there wasn't a spot for a player who brought crazy energy every night and contributed 15-20 goals. To me that's the very definition of a perfect third/fourth line player. The only scenario would be if we had someone who was better in that role, which clearly we don't (yet).

Heavy Track specially developed for 4x4 and SUV's. Off road Heavy Track shock absorbers ensure greater stability and stamina for driver and vehicle. They are perfectly suited to all road conditions - Heavy Track 'all road' shock absorber from Koni. Because under all conditions, however heavy the going, it ensures perfect road holding and comfort.
Off road Heavy Track shock absorbers ensure greater stability and stamina for both drivers and vehicles. On the road, you can count on greater comfort and a higher level of safety, more stability and better roadholding. In short, Heavy Track shock absorbers from Koni are perfect 'all road' shock absorbers, irrespective of the driving conditions.
Koni Heavy Track shock absorbers are simply and completely adjustable. This means that the damping characteristic can be completely adapted to the circumstances. Furthermore, Heavy Track shock absorbers have large reserves of damping power available. And that's not all. Koni shock absorbers are of superior quality. This is not only evident from the robust construction but also from the materials used such as the seals which are resistant to high temperatures.
Additional Information:
History and information about Koni and their products.
KONI has a long and colorful history starting in 1857 in the Netherlands and was not a shock absorber manufacturer at its onset but made leather equipment for horses and then prior to World War II it began designing and manufacturing a friction type shock absorber and finally after the war it initiated work on the telescopic shock absorber. Later, KONI began to view racing as an avenue that would advance the company's presence in the automotive industry and consequently participated in an international rally and thus was the start of the KONI presence in the sport of racing until finally winning the World Championship with Tyrell Ford at the wheel winning the driver's and construction championships and the rest is history. KONI has dedicated itself to the task of improving damping for racing purposes but it has not stopped there and has gone on to improve damping in commercial vehicles as well as things like bridges--no job is too big for KONI and its experts and now KONI has a presence in a potpourri of conveyances and industrial applications being used under the most extreme conditions and are touted to be first when it comes to the designing and manufacturing of shock absorbers and suspension systems.
As a testament to its success in 1972 it became part of the globally diversified industrial company ITT who has a customer base in about one hundred twenty-five countries around the world and is one of the leading manufacturers of energy, transportation and industrial solutions. When you purchase a KONI product you can be certain that a great deal of expertise has gone into the making of that product whether it be in design, manufacturing or testing because a company cannot exist in such a competitive marketplace without providing a quality product that satisfies their customer and they certainly can't become one of the leaders in the industry. Whether you choose the Gold, Yellow, Orange or Red KONI shocks from those available on the LMPERFORMANCE web site ,know that the difference is not in the color but in the unique driving experience each is designed to provide because KONI makes every color of SANS PARIEL quality, they just want to give you the ability to choose the one that best suits your driving situation.
For over 150 years, KONI has been the premier manufacturer of performance and adjustable Koni sports shocks in the world. KONI shocks introduced the industry's very first adjustable shock absorber, electronic drag racing shocks and today's patented FSD (Frequency Selective Damping) street shocks. KONI suspension kit products are made from the highest quality raw materials and machined to the highest tolerances. This quality is represented not only by KONI's long heritage in motorsports but has also afforded KONI shocks the ability to offer a limited lifetime warranty on many of its shocks.
KONI makes a broad range of product lines to deliver upgraded performance in handling and ride quality to cars and trucks driven on paved roads. Shown below is a listing of the many world class KONI products and features that make the right choice for your vehicle. We also have Bilstein Sport Shocks here for another reputable company providing quality performance parts.

Ninja Warrior is a game show from Japan (where it's called Sasuke) that is shown regularly in America on G4. Basically, they have 100 contestants that run through four stages of obstacles with the first, second, and fourth being time-based. Anyone who can go through all four stages without being eliminated can claim the title of Sasuke. As of right now, I can only remember two people who have accomplished this feat, and they've shown at least the 13th iteration of the show in America.
Anyway, here's my take on the obstacles,
One I would like to try the most: Warped Wall
Personally, I think I could climb up this beast in one try. It doesn't look too high and people always get stopped by this obstacle.
One that looks the hardest: Globe Grasp
At the point the contestants reach this, they've already been through two or three obstacles that have strained most of their upper-body muscles. I wouldn't mind trying this obstacle though.
Of course, the final stage of the straight-vertical Spider Climb and Rope Climb in 30 seconds is just ridiculous, especially after going through the first three stages.
Edit: I forgot to mention, but the producers also try to add an international flavor to it by inviting notable personalities from different countries to participate. Off the top of my head, I remember Morgan Hamm, US Olympic medalist, (his brother too, I think) as well as other foreign athletes (usually gymnasts) participating.

Welcome to Northwestern, Student-Suing Prof!
Former Dartmouth lecturer Priya Venkatesan, the woman who threatened to sue her students for being mean to her and not caring about post-modernism, is now a research associate at Northwestern. She'll definitely end up with plenty of material for her forthcoming book at NU, especially because the blog College On the Record has already published her email address and invited students to harass her. Venkatesan declined to speak with the Wall Street Journal when they wrote that terrible op-ed about the situation, saying she'd said all she needed to say to The Dartmouth Review (and boy, did she). And today, the Harvard Crimson weighed in!
The Crimson, in a staff editorial, sums up the case so far and then wonders about the "troubling implications" for students in the Ivy Leagues who may wish to abuse and harass inexperienced professors in the future. You might get sued!
The litigious threats are among a recent spate of well-publicized incidents in which conflicts that have failed to find mediation in the classroom have spilled into other realms, like the Internet or the courthouse. Like the Horace Mann case, featuring vicious Facebook groups aimed at high school teachers, Venkatesan's move to a lawsuit and book deal represent a failure of reconciliation within the classroom. Student-teacher arguments are nothing new, of course, but these escalated clashes still suggest a lack of mutual respect and an inability to resolve disagreements amicably. Venkatesan would have done well to bring her grievances to a university administrator before searching for an attorney.
Well, considering that she's also suing the University for sending her secret racist codes while spelling Gattaca or something, that might not have worked out so well. But, as in the Horace Mann case, the important lesson here is that if you're a rich little brat you can still get away with being a dick to authority figures and generally come out fine.

Account Managers prepare proposals for new space rentals, act as a liaison between storage facilities and your company representatives, oversee account details and billing, and field any questions you may have along the way.
Locate Storage in any State
The web is great, but we can source the storage you need in any state in minutes! Provide us with the location where you'd like a storage unit, and we'll deliver a proposal for one of nearly 500 Uncle Bob's Self Storage locations. When Uncle Bob's can't serve your location, we'll find space at one of thousands of storage facilities in our network of Preferred Providers. Our Account Managers prepare a detailed space proposal which outlines space rental costs, dimensions, storage environment, and precise location with map. Once you're prepared to add the space to your rental agreement, our team processes the leasing and forwards move-in details to your company representative.
Consolidated Billing
If your accounting team is processing invoices and payments for each of the spaces you rent, now's your chance to be their hero. Uncle Bob's takes on this role for you. Corporate Alliance's powerful storage management system processes payments to each storage facility you use, combining them all into a single, comprehensive invoice. Through our customizable note fields, you can assign spaces to internal codes your accounting team uses for expenses. Cost centers, expense codes, associate names - each will appear line by line on our invoice, delivered promptly and electronically at the beginning of each month.
Leasing Controls
Storage rental agreements are legal contracts. Reviewing and managing these documents on a rental-by-rental basis adds a layer of administration that you don't need. Corporate Alliance processes all rentals at Uncle Bob's Self Storage facilities under one rental agreement. For third-party storage facilities, our Account Managers work directly with each facility to be sure your rental agreement is properly filled-out in the name of your company and kept on file. This extra due diligence assures that your company will always have access to your storage unit and claim to the contents regardless of personnel changes.
Associate Access Controls
Every large organization faces personnel changes and turnover. Storage facilities are secured with access codes and individual locks on each space. For a large number of storage units, it can be time-consuming to ensure the proper company field associates have access to the space. Our Corporate Alliance team handles changes to the rental agreements, facility access codes, and locks - all on your company's behalf.
Deliveries Right to your Storage Unit
For many large companies, timely delivery of merchandise and equipment is essential to the way they do business. A convenient solution is arranging for these deliveries directly to a storage unit, with no need for company associates to be present. Delivery arrangements require special access privileges for the storage facility owner, and our Corporate Alliance team can make the legal arrangements on your company's behalf.
