Vancouver's goaltending situation should be fun, Hossa returns in fine form, the Panthers have a fascinating second line, the Oilers are giving their young guns lots of ice and more in Scott Cullen's weekend wrap up.
CANUCKS GOALIE SITUATION It may not be a big deal for Vancouver, but pulling Cory Schneider after he allowed five goals on 14 shots (in 27 minutes) against Anaheim Saturday turned up the heat in terms of media coverage. The goaltending situation was already a prominent concern with perennial starter Roberto Luongo set to backup Schneider this year -- a changing of the guard -- for at least as long as Luongo remained in Vancouver. But, with Luongo forced to relieve Schneider in Game One, then stopping 30 of 32 shots against Edmonton Sunday before losing in the shootout, there does seem to be more pressure on Schneider to perform and live up to his role.
Worth mentioning here is that Schneider has a .926 save percentage in 69 career games, so it's certinly time to see if he can handle the starting role.
BLACKHAWK UP After suffering a concussion in last year's playoffs, thanks to Coyotes LW Raffi Torres, Blackhawks LW Marian Hossa showed zero ill-effects (4 G, 1 A, +3, 9 SOG in 2 GP) during the opening weekend.
Hossa has been such a consistently productive player throughout his career and it is encouraging to see a successful comeback from what appeared to be a serious concussion.
Dan Carcillo started the season in an enviable spot on Chicago's top line, but suffered a knee injury that could cost him a month of playing time. With Carcillo out, rookie LW Brandon Saad got to see quality time on the wing with Jonathan Toews and Hossa against Phoenix Sunday.
Saad had eight goals and 20 points in 31 games with Rockford of the AHL this season, not bad for a 20-year-old rookie, but also not yet enough to put high expectations on his offensive output this season. Nevertheless, if he sticks alongside Toews and Hossa, that's a great place to pick up points.
PANTHER MIX Florida's second line is a fantastic mixture of talent, and they combined for seven points against Carolina Saturday, but forecasting their long-term success still takes on an assumption of risk. Highly-touted rookie Jonathan Huberdeau (1 G, 2 A vs. Carolina) may have been good enough to play for the Panthers last season and has been biding his time in the QMJHL, where he has scored 273 points in 168 games (regular season plus playoffs) over the last two-and-a-half seasons. He has a chance to be one of the more productive rookies in the league.
Peter Mueller (1 A vs. Carolina) was the eighth overall pick in 2006, and has enjoyed some success in the NHL (a 54-point rookie season, 20 points in 15 games when he first joined Colorado after a trade from Phoenix), but concussions have ravaged Mueller in recent seasons, limiting him to 32 games over the last two seasons. If he's healthy, the 24-year-old with good size still has time to take advantage of his skills and is getting a good chance right now in Florida.
Universally described as the most talented practice player on the planet, Alex Kovalev struggled in the KHL last season, scoring one goal, six points and gonig minus-13 in 22 games with Moscow Oblast Atlant. Just over a month away from his 40th birthday, Kovalev not only returned to the NHL, but excelled (1 G, 2 A vs. Carolina) in a scoring role. Kovalev has been so up and down throughout his career that it's difficult to trust his production, but if Panthers coach Kevin Dineen can keep him engaged, he could be an upgrade among Florida's skilled forwards.
As a side note, for the Panthers, with Kris Versteeg sidelined (due to an undisclosed injury suffered in practice late last week), Scottie Upshall is getting a chance at right wing on the top line with Stephen Weiss and Tomas Fleischmann.
MORE ICE FOR OILERS' RISING STARS Jordan Eberle (1 G, 5 SOG, 22:13 TOI) Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (21:56) and Taylor Hall (21:20) all played big minutes in Sunday's shootout win over Vancouver. Certainly, overtime provided opportunity for those totals to rise, but Hall played the most of that trio last season, averaging 18:13 TOI, on a per-game basis.
My forecast for Eberle was not popular in Edmonton in the preseason because my projection was based on Eberle not likely matching his 18.9% shooting percentage from last season. If Eberle fell back to, say, 12% shooting, that would cost him a dozen goals (based on last year's 180 shots on goal), but the ways to avoid falling back will be two-fold -- more ice time and more shots on goal -- both of which occurred Sunday. Additionally, Eberle's backhand goal, to get the Oilers on the board and start their comeback, was a beauty.
BLUE NOTES St. Louis dominated Detroit from start to finish Saturday, with a couple of promising offensive signs to go with their shutdown defensive play.
RW Chris Stewart, prime for a bounceback season after scoring 15 goals in 79 games last year, (2 G, 5 SOG, 15:58) scored both of his goals on the power play and is skating on a promising line with Patrik Berglund and Jaden Schwartz at even strength.
Rookie RW Vladimir Tarasenko announced his presence (2 G, 5 SOG, 13:52 TOI) against Detroit, with one goal on a breakaway and another on a tuck-and-drag move to split the Red Wings defence. Tarasenko was scoring a point-per-game (14 G, 17 A ni 31 GP) in the KHL this season and was my highest-forecasted rookie scorer this year, so this could just be the beginning for the talented 21-year-old winger.
SABRE RATTLING Buffalo LW Thomas Vanek enjoyed the monster game (2 G, 3 A, +1, 9 SOG, 19:17 TOI vs. Philadelphia) of the opening weekend, shredding the Flyers defence and contributing on every one of the Sabres' goals in a 5-2 win. Vanek's a skilled player and has scored at least 60 points in five of the last six seasons, but consistency (and ice time) haven't always been easy to come by, so while this is a promising start, let's see how his ice time and production go from here before going over the moon.
Another Sabre, C Cody Hodgson (1 G, 7 SOG, 19:44 TOI vs. Philadelphia) saw an increased role, playing 17:16 per game, last year when he was acquired from Vancouver, but Hodgson still only managed eight points in 20 games with Buffalo, leaving room for doubt about roles down the middle for the Sabres. That season debut is a promising start and offers some hope that Hodgson will capably fill an offensive role this season.
RARE YANK FOR HANK Rangers G Henrik Lundqvist was pulled after allowing four goals on 18 shots against Pittsburgh Sunday. It was a difficult weekend for last year's Vezina finalists, as Jonathan Quick (five goals on 22 shots vs. Chicago) and Mike Smith (5.05 GAA, .825 SV% in 2 GP) also had a tough start to the season.
While the Rangers did lose their first two games of the season, they need not get overly concerned about the results. The Rangers were ranked second in my preseason Power Rankings, but they faced Boston (ranked third) and Pittsburgh (ranked first) in their first two games; tough to face a more challenging opening weekend.
COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN Much was made about the age of Dallas' free-agent acquisitions in the offseason. RW Jaromir Jagr (2 G, 2 A, +1, 16:04 TOI vs. Phoenix) and LW Ray Whitney (1 G, 1 A, 20:16 TOI vs. Phoenix) both excelled in their first games with Big D. The Stars were shut out in the second game of their back-to-back on the weekend, at Minnesota.
Jagr was decent in Philadelphia last season, scoring 54 points in 75 games, but was annihilating the Czech League during the lockout, tallying 57 points in 34 games, playing with Montreal's Tomas Plekanec and Carolina's Jiri Tlusty. Fatigue set in with Jagr last year, so that bears watching, but it's possible that the shortened NHL schedule could be more to his liking.
FEED THE WILD LIFE Minnesota's numbers one line is getting a heavy workload right off the bat. RW Dany Heatley (2 G, 1 A, 10 SOG, 20:02 TOI per game), C Mikko Koivu (2 A, 21.:09), and LW Zach Parise (1 G, 2 A, 20:52) have been productive and, in particular, the consistency and all-around effort from Koivu and Parise combined could help Heatley resurrect a career that has been fading in recent seasons -- his 53 points in 82 games last year reprsented a career-low in points per game (0.65).
BETTER LATE THAN NEVER Toronto's defence corps is due for some remodeling, so it presents an opportuntiy for 27-year-old D Mike Kostka who performed well in his first NHL game (1 A, 22:59 TOI at Montreal). Kostka played for UMass-Amherst in college and has toiled for four seasons in the AHL. After scoring 34 points in 34 games with the Marlies this year, Kostka not only earned a chance to play in the NHL, but earn significant minutes, including power play time, for the Maple Leafs.
CON JOB Another first-year NHLer coming from a less-than-storied collegiate program, Lightning LW Cory Conacher played at Canisius University, scoring 130 points in 109 games over this final three seasons, before earning an AHL contract last season, where he scored 80 points and added 114 penalty minutes in 75 games to force the NHL to take notice. Conacher may only be 5-foot-8 but, amid multi-point games for the usual suspects (Steven Stamkos, Vincent Lecavalier, Martin St. Louis, Teddy Purcell), Conacher had a goal and an assist in his NHL debut and is playing on Lecavalier's wing, so a prime position for the rookie to remain productive (note: he added two more points Monday afternoon).
ERIK THE GREAT Senators D Erik Karlsson picked up right where he left off last season (1 G, 2 A, +2, 6 SOG, 25:35 TOI at Winnipeg). Being paired with stay-at-home defender Marc Methot allows Karlsson to roam free offensively, which is crucial to the Ottawa attack.
EARNING HIS KEEP Canucks D Alexander Edler signed a six-year, $30-million contract and opened the season strong (2 G, 1 A, 22:52 ATOI in 2 GP). He can't count on scoring on 40% of shots all season, but Edler is Vancouver's best offensive defenceman, coming off a career-high 49 points last season.
SHORT CELEBRATION The Los Angeles Kings finally got to raise their Stanley Cup banner in the season opener on Saturday, but missing top centre Anze Kopitar, they took their lumps against the Blackhawks, with the Kings' top line -- Simon Gagne, Dustin Brown and Mike Richards -- each taking a minus-3 in the first game of the season.
CHANCE FOR HANSEN Three Canucks forwards have played more than 19 minutes per game through the first two, both losses. The Sedin Twins, not surprisingly, are the first two. The third is Jannik Hansen (2 A, 19:01 ATOI in 2 GP) who has played mostly with Maxim Lapierre and Chris Higgins, but has obviously been moving around the lineup to get significantly more ice time.
HURRICANE WARNING Hurricanes LW Drayson Bowman led Carolina with five shots on goal at Florida, in only 9:30 of ice time; Zach Boychuk registered no shots on goal in 10:13, apparently costing him his spot on the top line.
PHOENIX RISING Through the first two games of the season, Coyotes LW Mikkel Boedker has played 18:38 per game, tied with Antoine Vermette for most among the team's forwards. Boedker, one of my preseason breakthrough candidates, has five shots on goal, an assist and a plus-2 rating through two games, both losses.
ROMAN WASN'T BUILT IN A DAY Predators D Roman Josi, taking on a bigger role now that Ryan Suter has moved on to Minnesota, led the Predators with 27:30 TOI against Columbus (partner Shea Weber played 25:07, but also took seven minutes in penalties thanks to a scrap with Jared Boll).
BOUCHARD IS BACK Over the last three seasons, Wild LW Pierre-Marc Bouchard has played 97 of a possible 246 games, as concussions have left him on the sidelines for extended periods, but he's been medically cleared to start this season and has a goal, an assist and a plus-2 rating through the first two games. A healthy Bouchard gives Minnesota a much more skilled second scoring line.
FLICKERING FLAMES LW Mike Cammalleri (0 SOG, 14:44 TOI) didn't see a great deal of ice time against San Jose, while C Matt Stajan played 18:05, maybe getting a bit of a fresh start under a new coaching staff in Calgary.
BEWARE THE PENGUIN Easily overlooked with more produtive players in Pittsburgh, D Paul Martin (3 A, 23:48 per game in first two games) is off to a good start. Trouble is, Martin has never scored more than 37 points in a season and has 51 points in 150 games over the last two seasons in Pittsburgh. Without great production otherwise (ie. hits, blocked shots), his appeal is still limited.
STAR GOALIE Dallas' Christopher Nihlstorp, a 28-year-old from Sweden, earned the backup job behind Kari Lehtonen and impressed (allowing one goal on 32 shots at Minnesota) in his NHL debut. The 6-foot-4 'tender had a 2.13 goals against average and .916 save percentage in 28 AHL games this year after posting a .923 SV% in 67 games over the last two seasons in Sweden.
HARD LIFE Minnesota G Josh Harding was diagnosed with MS in the offseason, so it was extra heart-warming to see him turn in a 24-save shutout against the Stars in his first start. For a guy who missed the entire 2010-2011 season with a torn ACL, Harding has had to overcome more than his share of adversity, but has been among the game's better backups, posting a .916 SV% in 118 career games.
DEVIL OF A DEAL An interesting note on the new contract for Devils C Travis Zajac, who signed an eight-year, $46-million contract extension. Zajac's salary in the first year of the deal (2013-2014) is $3.5-million, the lowest value over the life of the contract. If there is going to be any negative impact on league revenues from the lockout, it could be mitigated for Zajac because his deal starts lower than his current $4.8-million salary and is $5.0-million in the second year before hitting $6.5-million over the next four seasons.
Say, for example, the players would have to put 10% into escrow, that would cost Zajac $350,000 next year. If his average contract value ($5.75-million) was used, that would mean $575,000 into escrow so, in that example, it would save Zajac $225,000. It could be even more if the escrow percentage goes higher or, obviously, less if there isn't really an economic impact to the league's latest lockout.

What's the quickest way to become a master of poppin' and chuggin'? Fish a bait designed by the world's finest topwater master and professional angler, Zell Rowland. Zell hand-carved the prototype that became the XCalibur Zell Pop. XCalibur's performance engineering and Hi-Tek design developed a popper that will sit tail down and create the optimum spitting action. Zell is not afraid to use this spitting fishing lure all season long and at various time of the day, but the best time to walk and spit a Zell Pop on the surface is during a cool, beautiful sunrise and when the heat begins to subside in the cool breeze of the evening. Because Zell knows not all poppers are created equal.

Comments: It's a good popper, the tail end does sink while sitting, I would like to see it totally level (Buoyant) while it rests on the surface , but either way it draws strikes for sure.
From: Frank: NJ 6/23/14
Comments: All I have to say is WOW!! First time fishing Lady Bird Lake in Austin Tx, threw this bait along banks and stumps and got hit after hit after hit! I had over a 20 pound limit just from this popper. When I'm river fishing this is always tied on as well. This bait spits, pops, even walking was easy. Leaves a bubble trail and that's when Mr. Bass comes and kills it. Bought an other Zell-Pop... Good Job Tacklewarehouse!
From: Joseph: San Marcos, TX
Comments: if you combine every other bait I have used I have caught more bass with this lure alone
From: Damon: Lehigh acres florida
Comments: I caught more fish on this popper,this year, than ever before. Arkansas Shiner is "The One"
From: D: VA
Comments: I have never fished top water before kind of new to it i bought the z-shad fished it in the morning and by my 3rd cast i caught my very first fish on top water and continued to catch 6 more in the morning hours.
From: Brandon: Hueytown, AL
Comments: This is by far the best popper for the money
From: Joey
Comments: I purchased the Pearl Melon & Z-Shad colors in the Xz2 size. I am very impressed with the action of these baits. Very well made and balanced. Incredibly easy to walk, pop, and spit. I used Pop-R's for years and these Zell Pops don't even compare! Post-spawn is coming up and if I don't catch fish w/ these it will be ME and not the bait to blame! Highly recommended, worth the money!
From: Mike: Jackson, MI
Comments: Before I never got it. Why would anyone pay $10 for a popper when I can get 3 poppers for only like 2$ more. Then one morning on a small local lake I was fishing with a friend who has one of these and I had a regular Pop-R, my go-to at the time, he absolutely spanked me. 27 bass to my 2. As soon as we got home I ordered 3 of these and have never looked back. Simply awesome poppers, their action is like none other and fish simply can't resist. Quality - over 300 bass later, she's still lookin good. Buy one - you won't regret it!
From: Cobi: MI
Comments: Just an awesome popper. Quality and finish of this bait is 1st class. I throw the small size most often and it cast a mile.
From: Len: Grosse Ile, MI
Comments: This is the only popper i will throw. They cast well, and really spit when worked properly. 10$ a piece, but you forget about that when you're rod is bent in half. Hitch is my go-to color.
From: Dan: WV
Comments: pop-r's became obsolete to me when I began using these. This is my go to lure in the morning and can catch them all day long, by far the BEST topwater lure
From: Patrick: Chapin, SC
Comments: This is a very good bait. I fished the regular old Pop-R with replaced hooks and hand tied feathers; problem was that the baits all had their own different action, some just did not work like others. Have ben using Zell Pops since they came out; more consisted with the action, lure to lure. Fav is Bone-Chart: Nothing wrong with a $15 popper excpt the extra $5
From: Rob: Langhorne, PA
Comments: Bought it in foxy shad. bass annihilate it. my favorite topwater lure!
From: Doyle: Boston, MA
Comments: Catches bass when the bit is tough!
From: Sonny: East Wareham, MA
Comments: I bought a Foxy Shad, and have caught nothing but big Largemouth Bass with it! Definitely worth the money!
From: Phil: Quantico, VA
Comments: This bait is the real deal. I prefer the 2 size. Biggest issue you will have is the scratches from all the bass teeth.
From: Clint: DS, LA
Comments: I fish topwater most of the time, and haved tried them all. This lure is by far the best.
From: Paul: Indiana, USA
Comments: I can remember asking why anyone would spend this kind of money on Pop-Rs. But once the fish quit hitting my Rebel, I had to make a change. The glitter and just the quality of the bait have made all the difference in the world. This is now one of my go to baits, it just seems like they will not pass up on this thing.

Leafs Head to Philly
September 21 2011 10:14AM
I hear last night's game against Philly was fantastic and a great time was had by all. I didn't watch the game because it was the preseason. However I know some of you like to watch preseason hockey even if personally it serves only to enrage me when things go poorly so here's a preview.
MapleLeafs.com has the roster for us:
Forwards: Colby Armstrong, Darryl Boyce, Tyler Bozak, Luca Caputi, Joe Colborne, Jerry D'Amigo, Philippe Dupuis, Matt Frattin, Ryan Hamilton, Nikolai Kulemin, Greg McKegg, Colton Orr, Jay Rosehill
Defence: Keith Aulie, Cody Franson, Jake Gardiner, Carl Gunnarsson, Korbinian Holzer, Mike Komisarek, Juraj Mikus, Luke Schenn
Goalies: Jonas Gustavsson, Ben Scrivens
Interesting that some of the lines are broken up. Kulemin is in but not MacArthur or Grabovski. The Armstrong - Bozak - Kadri lines is missing Nazem.
Luca Caputi gets a chance to dive into the action tonight and we'll see Jerry D'Amigo and Greg McKegg for the first time as well.
Bold prediction: Toronto scores a goal.

i agree,and was not advocating that we elect milatary people to office.also agree about the "bay of pigs"fiasco.castro 'did' make that statement,but it was not said to flatter the U.S.,on the contrary,he was boasting about how cuba had stood up to us.<quoted text>
Look at the numbers and you'll find answers. 2.4 million jobs are directly linked to the military/industrial complex. Plus, the US has 2.2 million men and women in uniform. Plus, the US spends more on it's military, including hardware, than the next 13 nations do COMBINED and that includes Russia and China! Add in what the CIA spends, which is secret, and it would probably be 18 nations!
That's a lot of money and profits for people like Halliburton (sp). Can you imagine what would happen to the economy if the US were to suddenly cut back (or not start wars)?
Castro may or may not have said that, but looked what happened at the Bay Of Pigs! Face it: we're war mongers and that's nothing to be proud of!

Guess your post means you dont support Hillary in 2016? In the not too distant future you Tea Party types will be looked upon as a last hooray of a backward people.
#2652 Jan 28, 2013
Do you really believe after that Benghazi fiasco that she has a snowball's chance in Hell of being elected to even street sweeper. I don't think so!! When they questioned her all she did was answer with questions. Duh, real bright. I'm not a tea party type. I'm not a joiner, just an activist that never wants to see an American Ambasssdor beg for help. CIA saying they were being over run and Washington sitting on ther thumbs and 4 brave Americans dying. Literally fighting on American soil in a foreign land. You really think she can win. Dream on!! Let's not forget the Fast and Furious fiasco where Border Agent Terry was murdered by weapons we planned on tracing to terrorist in Mexico. Many Mexican citizens were killed with those guns too. How soon we do forget when we can't see the forrest for the trees.

You mean like Republican President Theodore Roosevelt who pushed for Universal health coverage and leveled the playing field for all Americans by taking on the 1%?
#2658 Jan 28, 2013
Progressive you mean, socialistic medicine, more entitlement programs, Obamacare, taking from the rich to support those that don't want to work, but live on our hard earned money. Let me tell you something. My husband is retired. Our health insurance costs almost $20,000 a year. I never reach my deductible my husband does because of serious health issues. Obamacare bull crap. I'll never have it. My husband and I paid out social security by mid year for years. We earned those benefits and we paid our taxes since we were in our late teens. I'll never be an Obamacare user. What's going to happen is Drs. are going to refuse to take any health care plans because of the administration costs, that will send the poor to the emergency rooms for care costing the government 5 times what it would otherwise. Those of us that keep our private coverage will pay out of pocket and file with our private insurances. Some of us don't want handouts. We have paid our way all our lives and will continue to do so till the day we die because we scrimped and saved and paid into our 401k plans for our entire lives. We don't need Obamacare. We can pay our own way, thank you very much.
#2659 Jan 28, 2013
When healthcare costs are eating up 25% of the GDP you will be crying out for a reasonably priced universal healthcare system like Taiwan, Switzerland and Israel all have.
#2660 Jan 28, 2013
I don't give a crap what Fox or any other talking heads report. Somethings will not be forgotten. Some us won't allow the Ambassador or the other three brave Americans be forgotten nor will we allow Border Agent Terry to be forgotten. If I'm not around my children will carry the banner as they are going to carry the debt this country has now amassed. Probably my grandson's children will still be paying for this crap when we are long gone. Take your talking heads and you socialistic crap and tell it to someone that's looking for a free ride in life. They'll love!!!!!!!
#2661 Jan 28, 2013
I don't know if anyone has pointed this out to you lately but this is AMERICA!!!!! I don't concern myself with what governments choose to do in other countries especially Taiwan. This is America and the people choose what's best for them individually as we always have. We don't need anymore government interferance in our lives or at least I don't. I support a womans right to abortion in cases of incest, rape or if a pregnacy threatens her life but no other reason. Certainly not as a form of birth control as so many women have used it for. Go to any Health Dept and you can get birth control free or on a sliding scale. There is not reason for an unwanted pregnacy in this country. Some just don't give a crap cause they know they can just run out and get a scrape job and be done with it. Now Obama is saying that's okay. Whatever feels good do it. That's the mindset of this Administration and it sickens me to the bone.

What a great American Teddy was.
If he ran for office today, the 47% of Americans who voted fr Romney would be convinced Teddy Roosevelt of a liberal, socialist commie Democrat.
Lord, 47 % of us have drifted so far to the right we make Mussolini seem like a lovable liberal.

You are a product of conservative based religious beliefs, talk radio and TV. They all, mayed even including your church have formed your opinions buy feeding you a line of sugar coated B/S.
With so many well informed conservative republicans you would think they could have beaten a black man born in some other country with only a fake education. The enonomy at historic levels of BAD. Historical levels of unemployment and stuck in two wars we can't win. You and your friends have tried twice and lost.
And you keep on saying the same thing. Every time you or someone like you opens your mouth with crap like in this post another vote goes to Obama or someone like him. Its YOU and people just like you who he thanks every night for his good luck. You and your friends keep talking and the republican party will be history, that could be one of your goals. The tea party talking over and you getting everything you dream of, never will happen.
The good thing is the party knows this, so they are moving toward the center, moving toward blacks, Hispanics and women. More relevant segments of the population than white tea party religious conservatives. You have dug your own political grave, now for the good of all fall in it, or wake up and smell the real world.
Have a blessed day!

I take it, then, you are anti-abortion? If so, that doesn't bode well with the partial birth abortion scenario you lefties seem to favor.

So! There are NO politicians serving today who have served in the armed forces NOR do they have sons or daughters in the armed forces. REALLY? None? Zero? Exactly HOW do you know that? Have you researched every single politician?

Architect Stephanie Skyring's tips for eco-fying your home
Skyring Architects director Stephanie Skyring was the creative mind behind the stunning Brisbane property I featured on the blog last week (and there some additional photos of the lovely house on this post). Here, she provides her top ten methods to make your home more comfortable, cost effective and environmentally sustainable.
While I can't claim to have much environmental nous, the below tips are great ways to ensure your home complements your lifestyle, which is instrumental to effective home design. Best of all, they show how you can lock out the cold without turning to the heater – tips I should heed, given my teeth seem to start chattering as soon as the temperature falls below 20 degrees celcius.
1. Increase insulation
Have a look in the ceiling and see if there is any insulation. Look for reflective foil under the roof battens and bulk insulation sitting above the ceiling. Using bulk insulation with an 'R value' of 3.5 or more will make your house naturally more comfortable and cut down your air conditioning costs.
Renovators: Install bulk insulation with an 'R Value' of 1.5 in any external walls where internal or external wall sheeting is removed to make changes. Pay particular attention to east and west walls that get direct sun. You will feel the difference.
2. Better breezes and sun
Make the most of your home site. Open up your house to the north, east and south, while closing down to the west. If renovating, consider putting in a new window or door on the north or south to provide direct breeze paths through the house and increase your natural ventilation.
Open up your house to the north, east and south, while closing down to the west.
3. More shading
Add awnings to your windows – they control the sun and allow you to keep the windows open when it's raining. Make sure the awnings are the right size and shape to suit the orientation and still let sun in during winter. If they are too wide you will have a cold house in winter. As a rule of thumb, try a 500 millimetre wide overhang.
4. Install ceiling fans
Ceiling fans in bedrooms and living areas provide effective cooling and use very little energy. (HH: I am happy to say I have these at the moment! Although they don't get a lot of use currently given how freezing it's been since April.)
Design note: Avoid fans with integrated lighting. The fan prevents the light from washing across the ceiling, making the room quite dark. For a more architectural effect use wall lights that light up the ceiling to provide a soft wash of light across the room. Locate them away from the fan. (HH: This is a great tip – light is one of the essential elements of a pretty room.)
5. Minimise maintenance
Choose materials and finishes that will require minimal maintenance. Try coloured bricks and blocks with no finish, or quality environmental paint finishes such as Resene on timber boards or other wall sheeting. Try lime wash for a long lasting natural finish on block work.
Avoid the fashion for timber battens with an oil finish, particularly where they are on the west or east wall, as the oil will have to be reapplied every six to 12 months to keep the timber from ageing. Avoid very dark paint finishes painted on timber on sunny west or east walls as the dark colour absorbs a lot of heat, causing the timber to expand and contract. This damages the paint finish and ages the timber.
6. Indoor air quality
Keep your family healthy by selecting interior finishes that don't emit toxic chemicals. Toxic chemicals emit a 'new' smell; your home shouldn't smell at all when the building is finished. Always use water based finishes (avoid solvent based finishes) for paints and floors.
Use hard floors like timber, bamboo, linoleum, polished concrete or tiles where possible because they are easier to keep clean. Use woollen rugs to add softness, improve acoustics and create focus areas. Rugs improve flexibility, because it's easy to change a rug to give your house a makeover.
7. High-level glazing and skylights
High-level windows and skylights provide natural light of far greater quality and quantity than windows in the wall. Install skylights in dark internal rooms to improve the light quality as well as reduce energy costs. If you are building or renovating, install high-level glazing to the north or south for loads of natural light and a beautiful sky view. (I despise dark rooms – they make me feel depressed and claustrophobic, and they don't look as good as their lighter equivalents - so I love this tip.)
8. Energy efficient water heating
Hot water systems are the largest source of household greenhouse emissions. If you haven't already, install a solar hot water system to heat your water for free. Put the tank on the roof to avoid using energy to pump the water and put the override switch on manual so you can choose when you want to use your electric backup. Alternatively, consider a heat pump or instantaneous gas as a secondary option. (My own hot water is solar, but unfortunately is an old system that never seems to work well - if the installer had put in a secondary option, I mightn't feel as aggrieved as I do!)
9. Investigate solar power
Solar power is becoming increasingly affordable. However, you will need to make sure you have room on the roof for the panels to face north in a location that is not shaded between 10 am and 3 pm. Make sure you purchase quality solar panels to optimise energy creation.
10. Get smart with lighting
Install lighting control devices on your lights to make them more efficient, such as dimmers and movement sensors and timers. If you have loads of 'energy eating' low voltage down lights in your house, investigate some lighting alternatives. Find a specialist lighting shop and talk to them about lighting and bulb options that are more efficient. There are loads of options to improve the ambiance and lighting quality and save energy.

Absolutely HorribleI do not leave many reviews about products, however, in this case, I think its a necessity. The wax is messy and easily gets everywhere it should not be. It also worked very poorly; only a few hairs were removed while leaving a lot of wax behind. The wax remover that was included also works poorly and left my hands very oily. Im not a hair removal/wax expert, but in my opinion, this is one product to stay far away from.Jul 26, 2009David / Ohio

Hard To Use, Hard To Remove, And Painful IrritationI have used waxes at home for years with great success & little pain or irritation. This product is a disaster... it is difficult to apply, painful when stripping with a muslin, and almost impossible to remove from your skin or any other surface it contacts. The acute irritation lasted for about an hour and subsided over the day.Jul 19, 2009Anonynous

Don't WorkI bought one kit and tried the first time. Only few hair waxed off. I thought that I maybe didnt follow the instruction strictly. So I did second time one week after. My skin was sensitive and red after waxing, but lots of hair still stay on my lip. I am licensed technician for this. I used to wax many clients with traditional wax. It worked fine. However, my skin was sensitive to old wax. I decided to try this free strip honee wax. It didnt work.Aug 20, 2007Ping Pan / Coram, Ny

Very Bad ProductI agree with Alison from Florida, this product is awful. The wax sticks to the legs and it is very very difficult to get a good grip at the wax to strip it out from the skin. I am glad I did not try on my eye brows....I have never been so disapointed with a wax like that before...and I have tried many....Jul 27, 2007Marta

Not Recommended For Body Waxing.After reading mixed reviews I decided to try this product out. I did my eyebrows and upper lips with out a problem. I tried to do my underarms and there wasnt too much of a problem. The problem occurred when I started to do my legs. Because the wax is relatively thin, I found it difficult to spread a thick layer of wax on my legs, so I ended up with patches of wax around my legs instead of a nice even layer all around. For facial waxing I thought this was excellent, but for body waxing it didnt impress me at all.May 21, 2007N/a

Pretty Good But PainfulI havent tried the new yellow wax... didnt know they changed the product. But the green wax ive used works great! It does take practice, a little getting used to and altering the technique to work with you, and self-inflicted pain is hard to do. I had to listen to loud music to get in the self-mutilating mode it requires to get it off, but the results were great. I must add that the results do vary. Id give it a least 2 shots before chunking it for those of you who had unsuccessful experiences. Sometimes I dont get much hair off, sometimes I get it all, just depends i guess, but overall a great product.Nov 12, 2006Anonymous

Change Formula And It Is Terrible NowI really USE to love this product. It seems that they changed the formula, use to be green wax and now its yellow. Its terrible, it was a sticky mess, it didnt harden well and and it was stuck all over me and did not remove much of the hair. I would not recommend this and I would not buy it again, unless they started to sell the old formula.Sep 13, 2006Julie / DC

Used It For YearsI have used this product for years and am very pleased with it. I have sensitive skin and was always embarassed when I would get my eyebrows waxed at the salon because it would turn my skin bright red. So red that I would go straight home afterward to avoid people giving me strange looks. This product was recommended to me by a co-worker who had the same problem. It is incredibly gentle and my skin only gets red for a minute or two afterward. It is easy to set up, you just heat it in the microwave and stir, and easy to apply as well. I dont use all of the products that come with it except for the pre-wax and sometimes the wax remover but I still buy the whole kit because it comes with the sticks. I would highly recommend it to someone with sensitive skin or who hates to pay $15 to get their eyebrows waxed once when this one kit will last you well over a year!Sep 5, 2006Ryan

Don't Try This At Home!!This is the worst wax I have ever used!! It is impossible to get off your skin, let alone anything it touches. I am still scraping this wax off my tile floor. The muslin strips also shred and stick to the wax. There are definitely easier to use waxes out there. Try Nairs Microwave wax instead...its cheaper too!Sep 4, 2006Allison / Florida

You Have To Know What You're DoingI have used this particular wax for several years - got this newer kit only recently. I have extremely sensitive skin, and yet the only times Ive had less than excellent results are when I havent followed the directions correctly, and then only on two occasions that I can recall. The directions are there for a reason! Dont overheat! Dont leave the muslin strip on too long!Aug 23, 2006Kb / Virginia

This Just In ...
Kevin Fischer is a veteran broadcaster, the recipient of over 150 major journalism awards from the Milwaukee Press Club, the Wisconsin Associated Press, the Northwest Broadcast News Association, the Wisconsin Bar Association, and others. He has been seen and heard on Milwaukee TV and radio stations for over three decades. A longtime aide to state Senate Republicans in the Wisconsin Legislature, Kevin can be seen offering his views on the news on the public affairs program, "InterCHANGE," on Milwaukee Public Television Channel 10, and heard filling in on Newstalk 1130 WISN. He lives with his wife, Jennifer, and their lovely young daughter, Kyla Audrey, in Franklin.
Friday Night Forgotten Oldie: "Moja droga jacie kocham, Kocham ciebie calem serce"
I grew up on Milwaukee's south side. This young boy was a mixture of Irish, German, and a touch of Polish.
My neighbors and their kids were mostly Polish. All of their last names ended in "ski." The joke was they couldn't spell toboggan.
If they weren't Polish, they were German. There was an occasional Mexican or Puerto Rican. But Poles and Germans ruled.
And we were kids. And we told jokes. And some, many were of the ethnic variety.
Here's an example.
Three astronauts were having a discussion. The American astronaut bragged that the USA was going to land on the moon.
That's nothing said the German astronaut. "We're going to land on Mars."
The Polish astronaut couldn't contain his laughter. "We got you all beat. We're going to land on the Sun."
The American and German astronauts looked at each other in disbelief.
"Are you crazy?" said the American. "You'll burn up," said the German.
"No we won't," said the Polish astronaut proudly. "We'll go at night."
Political correctness didn't exist then. Ethnic jokes were exchanged all the time. No group was off limits. No one frowned. No one got upset. No one cried. No one got into a fight. We laughed, and moved on. But it seemed one group was a target more often than any other.
In the early 60's just before and about the time the Beatle hit, Bobby Vinton was cranking out records. He started out as a bandleader, but when his record company, Epic got tired of his lackluster sales and was prepared to dump him, Vinton reminded the firm that under his contract, he still had two records to release, and this time, he would sing.
That began a string of romantic love songs that made Vinton's career go crazy.
This would last through the 60's until Vinton's career would sputter. This time Epic showed Vinton the gate. The popular romantic Vinton that topped the charts in the 60's was gone. The early and mid 1970's left Vinton behind.
Vinton needed a shot in the arm to boost a career that had essentially vanished. He went to one record company. And another. And another. And another. And another. They all told him they weren't interested.
On all of the failed visits Vinton took with him a song based on his Polish heritage. Finally, ABC Records showed confidence and signed him on.
During the 70's, the ABC network broadcast a late night Friday night concert program featuring several guests each week called "In Concert." On January 17, 1975, during a telecast of "In Concert" at the Aquarius Theatre in Los Angeles, Vinton in an interview segment expressed his frustration that when Polish-Americans were asked what their nationality was, they'd respond sheepishly and quietly.
The mission to restore ethnic pride began with a simple song, the one ABC Records didn't turn down, and boy, did it work. In January of 1975, People Magazine wrote:
"He (Vinton) had never himself hid his origins, always including a polka number in his exuberant stage act. But with folks like his own uncle who would not 'admit being Polish because it was bad for business,' Vinton declares his record has been 'a happening for the Polish people—it has given them a new spirit to fight the negative image'."
Suddenly Vinton was selling out arenas and guesting on shows like "In Concert." Eventually, he got his own variety TV show.
Once again, life was good for Bobby Vinton.
I believe I've written in previous blogs that I used to help my friend Jim Kaluzny spins music at weddings. One wedding we had the pleasure of working at was for one of Jim's friends. He was Italian and, ths, so were many in the crowd.
So we pulled out this number. The place was up for grabs.

Vimeo, YouTube or Both?
- 02/02/2010
- Categorized in: Choosing a UGC site
A continuing series of questions from an 'Net acquaintance on whether to post on YouTube or Vimeo.
Question: Incidentally, I heard that Vimeo encoded 720p at higher bitrates than YouTube (or that it had more bandwidth to serve it, or both... can't remember!). Do you prefer to use YouTube @ 720p for other reasons?
Answer: I test with YouTube because it's a popular subject on my blog and gets more eyeballs than any site in the world. The quality is also quite good for the grandparents and they're familiar with the site. I use Vimeo for many of the videos on my own site site (www.streaminglearningcenter.com) because it does well with screencams.
UGC sites can play two roles – one for marketing (getting eyeballs) and one for content distribution. If you're posting a marketing video to get eyeballs, there's no reason not to post the video on both sites. If you're embedding the video in your own site, and/or using Vimeo/YouTube for content distribution - you're right – use the one that delivers the best quality.
Response: Great, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts on this, Jan. Much appreciated. I'll use Vimeo for quality and YouTube for Eyeballs.
Comments (2)
I use Vimeo on my site right now, which does deliver higher quality video than YouTube. And with my upgraded membership, has fairly quick upload time and gives me privacy controls. What I am unhappy about is that if someone embeds my video from my site, it embeds with the Vimeo url, meaning it sends future viewers to the Vimeo page, vs. my website. I'm now looking for a good video hosting answer (besides expensive solutions like Brightcove) that will promote my site vs. Vimeo's site. Any answers?

The temperatures outside have me wishing for an early spring, but a large snowfall is always a good excuse to fire up the grill and drink something interesting. One must be prepared and my snow day lists do not include milk and bread. J.M. Stock Provisions provided two beautiful pork chops, which happily reminded me of how wonderful a proper pork chop can be.
Salt and pepper are all that's necessary for chops as nice as these and by now any competent cook requires a beverage. My choice for snowy cooking is the lovely, tart Zapain "Errekalde" Basque Cider. The "Errekalde" is delicious, gamey and tart, with a little funk, perfect as an aperitif, while preparing your fire.
Bruno Debize farmed about 5 hectares in the Beaujolais, mainly in the Southern part of the region, close to his home and cellar in Bully (just West of Lyon). I say farmed because in 2012 Bruno decided to lease/sell most of his vineyard holdings, having determined that he had accomplished everything he wanted to as a vigneron (though he's probably only in his late-thirties). He was also fed up with the French bureaucracy, mainly because the construction of a highway in 2010 lead to one of his prized parcels of 80 year old vines on schist, Les Ecoirets, to be paved over. These days Bruno vinifies select parcels of what he has leased out to his friends and also continues to buy fruit from growers with whom he has longstanding relationships. Biodynamic since 1999, Bruno Debize makes some of the purest, most terroir driven Beaujolais in a region where style and dogma often trump transparency.
He is one of the most hyper sensitive and self-critical tasters I have ever encountered. When I visited him this past May, we tasted all the wines he had in his tiny cellar. Each time he filled our glasses with wine thieved from the barrel, he required us to move outdoors in order to avoid the residual fermentation aromas of the cellar from obscuring our perception of the samples being tasted. After tasting from one barrel I exclaimed, this is some of the freshest, most alive Beaujolais I have ever tried! He demurely replied that it was his 2012nouveau that he refused to release the previous November because he didn't think it was ready to be bottled. This is an uncompromising winemaker that does not abide high levels of volatile acidity, brett, or reduction. And yet, all of the fermentations are spontaneous, there is no chaptalization, and the addition of SO2 is avoided unless necessary to preserve the purity of the wine. Perhaps because of his unwillingness to be party to any particular philosophy of winemaking, or maybe because of the relative isolation of Bully, Brunoremains largely unknown and under appreciated. Bruno is, by nature, a very discrete individual and it is perhaps his lack of ego that has kept him from being included among the superstars of the Beaujolais.
In my view, I have yet to experience such clean, pure, complex, energy-filled, drinkable wines as these anywhere else in the region. And it is one populated by some of the most dynamic and interesting producers in all of France. This is not hyperbole or an attempt at a marketing shtick. I truly believe this. So much so that Williams Corner bought and paid for everything that Bruno had left in his cellar that was already bottled but not already reserved by his other customers. An order of 144 cases, each of which Bruno had to open, unpack, and re-label for export to the United States.
As for the wines:
Au Bal Jean-Paul 2010: From a single plot of vines planted on alluvial soils with a limestone base. This wine is juicy, delicate, and fresh (11.1% a.b.v.).
L'Homme a la Veste 2011: From the same three parcels each year, one with 35-40 year old vines, one with 50 year old vines, and one with 60 year old vines half of which are on granite and the other half on limestone. Light and fresh, more depth than Jean-Paul, floral with a note of wild strawberries. (11.5% a.b.v.).
L'Homme a la Veste 2010: Juicy, more concentrated, pure gamay fruitiness. (11.3% a.b.v.). (Please note that there are four different labels that correspond to this wine in this vintage, each case comes with a mix of the four labels.)
Tete de Cuvee 2010: From the best selection of fruit planted on clay/limestone soils. Juicy, more structured, distinct minerality. Drink now or cellar for a decade or more, seriously. (11.7% a.b.v.). (This bottling is slightly different than the one you will find currently on the market in NY or CA. Bruno bottled one barrel by hand and these bottles come from that lot. The bottles on the market elsewhere in the US were bottled by machine. This explains the price difference. Bruno says that at this moment in the wine's development, he doesn't sense an appreciable difference between the two lots.)
Morgon 2010: From a plot situated at 400-500 meters of altitude. Crunchy, high-toned raspberry fruit. Chalky minerality. Tightly wound (tasted on Mon 8 April and Tues 9 April, 2013). The tension is like a flattened spring waiting to be released. Needs time (12.2% a.b.v.).
Morgon 2009: More generous and approachable than the 2010. Deeper sense of fruit with the structure to age. Lovely balance, so complete on the palate (12.9% a.b.v.).
Les Combertiers 2011: From a plot of very old vines situated on 85% granite and 15% clay. In Italy in April 2013 it had been bottled only one month previous and it was juicy, but shut down and seemingly inkier than the 2010. Six weeks later at the domaine I noted that it was brooding, with a darker fruit profile than one usually finds in Debize's wines. Balsamic, spice, and blueberries on the nose. Rich in the month, textured, acid. Lots of material, lots of stuffing. Long, intense, with some drying tannin that will require integration. Very compelling but needs time (12.8% a.b.v.).
Les Combertiers 2010: Red fruits, cranberry and potpourri. Deceptive in that it is simultaneously ethereal while possessing a good deal of matiere. Time in hand (11.6% a.b.v.).
Les Combertiers 2009: On April 8 I noted: ripe cherries in liqueur, sweetly fruited entry, lots of palate impact, yet lithe. A great deal of structure and density. My tasting note on April 9 reads: Fuck my life, this is beautiful. (12.7% a.b.v.).
We are excited to host Jean-Marc Espinasse of Domaine Rouge-Bleu on March 19th for a dinner at The Clifton Inn featuring Chef Tucker Yoder's exciting cuisine.

- About the brand
The simple convenient self-tanning towelette. Once you try it you'll never go back to creams, forms, or bottles. Dries in seconds.
Will not discolor ankles, knees, elbows, joints, etc. No streaking, odor or mess.
Aqua, Dihydroxyacetone, Ethoxydiglycol, Butylene Glycol, Polysorbate 20, Propylene Glycol, Cucumis, Sativus, Diazolidinyl Urea, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Parfum, Ascorbic Acid, Triethanolamine, Tocopheryl Acetate, Melaleuca Alternifolia, Tetrasodium EDTA, Sodium Metabisulfite, CI 19140, CI 15985
tantowel® can be applied to the face or body and will produce a uniform, natural looking glow within 3 hours. For a deeper tan, apply another tantowel® after 3 hours. To maintain your tan, use 2 to 3 times weekly. Individual results may vary.
Remove tantowel®, unfold completely, apply to clean dry skin. Wash hands. Wait 3 hours to moisturize.
Created by Aussie Lori Braun, the TanTowel is the perfect single-use self-tanning towelette, designed to give you the perfect glow without UV exposure. This collection also features tanning mist and moisturizer. As seen in O, Lucky and Allure.
Good Self Tanner For My Fair SkinI have red hair and fair, freckled skin. Add to that a family history of melanoma and you know why I avoid sun exposure. For my skin, which is normal to dry, these worked fine. I didn't want - or get - a deep dark tan. It would look very unnatural on me. I just didn't want to look fresh from the morgue. ;) I did get a nice healthy glow, after the devoloping time, and it lasted well. You can choose how often you use the Tan Towels to build a darker color, but I don't think my skin would ever get bronze with these. Maintaining the tan is not time consuming and quite simple to do. My skin is also very sensitive, I'm admittedly a wimp about feeling sticky, and I don't like the smell of most tanning products. None of these things were much of an issue with this product. This is the best product I've found to give my skin type a healthy tone that lets me wear a sundress with confidence.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.

- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.

Did You Know? Countdown to Chanukah 2009 (12/10)
Did You Know?
Facts, Figures &
Folklore about Chanukah
the Jewish Festival of Lights
Dec 10 : 01 day till Chanukah
Did you know that a game of chance known as dreidle (dreidel) — or sivivon in Hebrew — is played on Chanukah?
The dreidle is a four-sided top, which is passed around and spun by each of 2 to 4 players. The letter that the top lands on determines how much of the pot of pennies (or chocolate coins) one wins or loses.
Chanukah, the Jewish Festival of Lights, is a celebration of the victory of the Maccabees and the rededication of the Jerusalem Temple. It also commemorates the miracle of the oil that burned for 8 days. Jewish people mark this eight-day holiday by lighting the menorah, an eight-branched candelabra, and eating foods fried in oil such as potato latkes and jelly donuts. Join us for a new Did You Know? each day as we count down to Chanukah.
Chanukah, Hanukkah, Hanaka — no matter how you spell it — the fun begins at sundown on Friday December 11th.

The Edwardians: Secrets and Desires
National Gallery of Australia, Canberra 12 March –
15 June 2004
Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide 9 July – 12 September 2004
The National Gallery of Australia will launch its major exhibition The Edwardians: Secrets and Desires at the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra on Thursday 11 March 2004.
The exhibition is made up of 140 paintings, sculptures, costumes and designs drawn from national and international collections. It will include images of well-known figures such as Percy Grainger, Dame Nellie Melba, Virginia Woolf and Peter Pan. The collection features works by much-loved artists, among them, James McNeill Whistler, John Singer Sargent, Rupert Bunny, E Philips Fox, Gwen John, Tom Roberts and Walter Sickert.
The Edwardian era was a period of dramatic social change. A glamorous aristocratic hierarchy was underscored by a darker underbelly of society. Artists of the time dramatised their subjects to unearth the colourful layers of life in Edwardian times, portrayed through a broad range of artistic styles and approaches to their subject matter.
'The exhibition contains many sumptuous images which are a sheer joy to look at, but they also tell a story about social reform and changes in artistic exploration. This exhibition has given me great pleasure and I know it will continue to give much enjoyment to those who see it', said the exhibition curator, Dr Anna Gray, Assistant Director, Australian Art at the National Gallery of Australia.
A major catalogue, accompanying the exhibition, will feature essays by leading Australian and International scholars, many of whom will be contributing to the Edwardians Symposium at the Gallery, 12–13 March. To coincide with the opening of The Edwardians: Secrets and Desires, the National Gallery of Australia will also launch the cook book, Elegant sufficiency: A taste of Edwardian times.

Spoiler!everyone seems to be getting new guides nowadays =P
So So
Spoiler!everyone seems to be getting new guides nowadays =P
Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
Hell yeah Flare-san! I wanted her to join FT, but either way seeing her again makes me happy!
I hope Minerva gets a good ass whooping...she might end up like Hades...dead. She doesn't seem to be the type that will yield or change when beaten like the others have.
FT is not a planned journey like One Piece where the destination is coincident with the plot. Mashima introduces plot pieces one by one together with missions, and those missions may have little to do with each other. It's sort of an adaptation of a procedural show like cop/medical shows into the fantasy shounen genre.
Sadly the actual adventure genre lost it's popularity some years ago and thus stories that mainly concentrate on adventure no longer exist, now it is mainly used as a subplot, rather than a main plot.
Probably just me frustrated at the fact both Natsu and Erza turn to little kids. OP magic like you can't dodge it what the hell?
^ Not quite. You see, the true adventure genre, is one where the adventure is what really matters and not the destination (this means that stories that have a set destination, point or plot, other than simply adventuring, are actually stories with adventure element, subplot, rather than an actual adventure story). Subplots are simply more like dots on the map that the characters pass through while adventuring, they appear around as the characters go on their adventures, are part of the adventure but not it's destination (basically, while normally adventure is used to reach a certain point or plot, in this case the situation is reversed and the point or plot is a means of keeping adventuring). A great example of an adventure story would be Slayers.
This genre lost it popularity, partially because it's hard to make it good and interesting (it is easier to write a story when a certain rail path is set), as well as it might simply be more fun to watch as the character/s try to reach that one point, destination, purpose from beginning to end, while still having other subplots and adventure elements (in the end it all depends on the authors skills).
You could say that Mashima's previous work, Rave Master, was a hero story and it had a set destination of eliminating evil (the dark brings and the evil organization) and ended when the main plot was completed (we have seen the main character, from beginning to end, chasing that one purpose, of course there were other subplots and adventure elements). On the other hand in FT, finding Igneel or defeating Zeref or Acnologia, is not the main point of the story and it might not end after those plots are completed, since it is about the adventures of FT (partially seen from Lucy's perspective ?). Then again this might change if it turns out that FT Guild's purpose was to battle those (Zeref and Acnologia), thus turning out that the characters had always a main plot/purpose that they were chasing without even knowing.
I'm not sure if it cannot be dodged, it might that he simply took them off guard. Plus there might be certain limitations, drawbacks, side effects, time limit, or necessary preparations and conditions that have to be met before performing it (otherwise he would have already used it on everyone and ended it at the spot).

Book Description HTML | Report this book
"Bluish Medley 20-21" is somehow an epic love story (among many, many love stories) on the Internet throughout the late 20th century to the 21st century. Starting around 1995, the Internet started blooming, and the phenomenon of chat had an attraction with an outstanding increase daily. At that time, communication via chat was not possible with sound and video online, but only through the lines typed on the keyboard. Although applications for chat, such as JAVA, then MIRC and then PIRC, had limited functions, they were interesting social media for a generation that grew together with the modern maturing communication technology.\r\n

Ok... hold onto your hats my friends.
I have actually MADE something that I am sharing WITH YOU!!!
I've been wanting to make some iced sugar cookies for Christmas, and I realized that I didn't bring any of my holiday cookie cutters with us to China. :( So I was stuck using a cup to make boring, old circles. I had seen THIS great idea which I used as my inspiration. Of course, I had to add my own special twist.
This is what I came up with....
Aren't they cute?!
I had to improvise a lot here. I used a ziploc bag to pipe my frosting, and made the "black" for the belt using loads of blue and red food coloring. In the end, I think they turned out pretty cute.
THIS is the sugar cookie recipe I always use, and love!
and THIS is the awesome icing recipe I use and love.
Why not make some Snowmen while you are at it?
HERE are my Snowman Sugar Cookies...
Happy Baking & Happy Holidays!!

Your kitchen your life
- June 30th, 2011
- Posted in Tips
- By ILVE
- Write comment
More so now than ever your choice in kitchen design, and to much degree it's very appliances, determines how you live, how you cook and how you entertain. The kitchen has fast become a reflection of its owner, making its many elements highly important. Is your new kitchen going to suit your current busy work, family or entertaining lifestyle?
Where to begin then when renovating or designing a new kitchen build?
