Frank LeRoy Smith
Frank LeRoy Smith of Cortez died Wednesday, Sept. 19, 2012 at Vista Grande Inn, following a gallant battle with congestive heart failure.
Born in Dolores on April 30, 1921 to Pauline and Frank Smithy Smith, Frank was an outstanding athlete and a leader during his years at Dolores High School, where he graduated in 1941. While in high school, Frank competed on the basketball team that reached the state finals.
Following the Pearl Harbor attack, Frank, along with many of the starters on that team, enlisted in the Navy, where he served on the USS Barnes until Dec. 2, 1945, on the repair and rearmament of airplanes.
Taking advantage of the GI Bill, Frank attended Fort Lewis College (The Old Fort). On Jan. 1, 1949, Frank married the love of his life, Jeanne Jinx Cauthen and made a home in Dolores. Following the birth of their daughter, Patricia, Frank moved the family to Rangely, Colo., where he pursued a 30-year career with Chevron in the oil fields. Son Michael was born to complete the family. Frank was a lifelong member of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks. He was a past Exalted Ruler.
He retired in 1982 and his love of the outdoors brought Frank and Jeanne to their long dreamed-of life along the Dolores River in the mountains, where he was renowned as an avid fisherman. In 1996, poor health forced his relocation to Cortez.
Frank is survived by his loving wife, Jeanne, of the Cortez home; his children, Patricia Smith of Bayfield and Michael F. Smith and wife Connie of Longview, Texas; his grandchildren, Lyndsay Francies and husband George of Cypress, Texas, and Ryan Smith and wife Kelli also of Cypress; and great-grandchildren, Avery Smith, Cooper Smith and Kyla Francies.
Preceding Frank in death were his parents, Pauline and Smithy Smith; his brother, Gordon Smith; and his sister, Mary Ellen Byers.
As requested by Frank, no services will be held. There will be a celebration of Franks life from 1 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 22 at the family home, 2704 Golf Course Dr., Cortez.
Frank was a gentleman, a giant and gentle man who lived a long, full life and was loved and respected by many.
In lieu of flowers Frank would want you to remember him as you visit with his family or donate to your favorite charity.

Good looking boots
"I'll begin by saying I had to return my first pair because they were too big: I had a bought a pair in size US9 (I normally wear a 9.5 to 10) but they were too long in the toe. I exchanged for a size 8.5, which DSW made very easy (I just brought it to my local DSW store, although they provide a shipping label to return).The boots appear very well-crafted, but only time and use will tell. I plan to condition the leather using obenauf's HD. The leather is grain corrected and is a little lighter in color than it shows in the online pictures, where it seems a dark mulch brown. I figure that once I oil them, they'll take a much darker hue.I'm pretty pleased, both with my purchase and my experience with DSW."

Argo continued its awards season dominance Sunday, winning the British Academy of Film and Television Arts' prize for Best Picture. Ben Affleck followed up his victory at the Directors Guild Awards last week with another win for directing the film.
Argo will have a chance to repeat the Best Picture win Feb. 24 at the Academy Awards, though Affleck was snubbed for a nomination for Best Director. At the BAFTAs, it beat out fellow Best Picture nominees Les Miserables, Life of Pi, Lincoln and Zero Dark Thirty to take home the top prize.
The lead acting prizes went to Oscar frontrunner Daniel Day-Lewis for Lincoln and Emmanuelle Riva for Amour. Christoph Waltz and Anne Hathaway won the supporting actor and actress awards for their roles in Django Unchained and Les Miserables.
Awards Season: Red carpet hits and misses
Quentin Tarantino (Django Unchained) and David O. Russell (Silver Linings Playbook) won the awards for Best Original Screenplay and Best Adapted Screenplay, respectively.
Page 2 of 3 - The James Bond vehicle Skyfall won the award for Outstanding British Film, beating out Anna Karenina, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, Les Miserables and Seven Psychopaths. Other notable prizes went to Amour, for Best Film Not in the English Language, and Brave, for Best Animated Film.

Awesome running shoe
"This shoe is super comfortable, the memory foam is slightly firm but the fit is off. I am a size 9, the same as my mom but her feet sometimes swell up so I ordered her a 9.5 but they are too small for both of us. Our toes hit the very front of the shoe so I'm sending this back and ordering a 10 which I think should be perfect."

Perfect gym/running shoes
"I have wide feet with narrow heels so find sometimes that my ankle shifts in sneakers as I work out. Not these ones, they are great. I'm really happy with them. Shoes are light weight and flexible. Padding underfoot is soft and supportive, the memory foam is nice, but shouldn't be the 'big sell' as it's not super thick. Really happy with my purchase - will buy these again if I can."

The Harrisburg High School girls' soccer team played Anna-Jonesboro to a 1-1 tie Monday in Senior Day at Michael Herrin Field.
Harrisburg scored first at the 23:00 mark on the first half when Jordan Stewart found Kelsey Hobbs.
Anna-Jonesboro then scored at the 43:48 mark, which was the Wildcats' only shot of the game on what head coach Rick Daugherty called a "perfectly placed goal."
"We outshot them 13-1 and I thought we bounced back really well from the last team we played them when we lost 8-1. I think this team is really starting to peak right now."
Harrisburg took two of three games over the weekend at the Centralia Tournament beating Olney (9-1) and Trenton Wesclin (4-1) with the lone loss coming to Mt. Vernon (6-4) to finish in third place.
At Centralia, Hobbs had two hat trick in two different games. The freshman was responsible for 10 goals, while Lillee Robison had a goal against Mt. Vernon and Trenton Wesclin and a hat trick against Olney.
The Bulldogs will play the first round of the IHSA Regionals on May 8th in Olney taking on Salem at 4:30 p.m.

"When I saw this shoe online I had to have...then I got the shoe and that excitement discipated. I bought in the black/white combination and really liked the heel on this shoe because it was different. I love different. I ordered in an 8.5, should have ordered a 9. The shoe was short and narrow, kind of pinched at the toe strap on me. The heel is cool, but the shoe is definitely a one season pair. Not made well, the cloth had wrinkles in it and the shoe appeared cheap. Nice try, but not!"

"These look super cute and fun, but when I got them in the mail, they looked really cheap. The wood is laminate, the coral fabric was poorly attached to the shoe. Even if you zoom in on the product shot on the website, you can see that the fabric on the fastening strap is cut very unevenly. Returned :(."

Urea is the major end product of protein nitrogen metabolism. It is synthesized in the liver from ammonia, which is produced by amino acid deamination. The determination of blood urea nitrogen is an important index of kidney function. Impaired renal function or increased tissue protein breakdown are associated with increased urea nitrogen levels, whereas liver damage or pregnancy are associated with decreased levels.
Note: A positive result from a screening is considered to be a presumptive or indeterminate result and should never be interpreted as the final result.
1. Collect urine specimen in a clean container. Mix well immediately before testing. If urine specimens are not tested within 1-hour, refrigerate specimen at 2-4°C and bring to room temperature before testing.
2. Remove strip from pouch for immediate use. Hold the plastic end of the strip and completely immerse reagent area of the strip in urine sample and remove immediately to avoid dissolving out reagent area.
3. Remove the strip slowly avoiding any spilling. Run the edge of the strip against the rim of the urine container to remove excess urine and hold strip horizontal to specimen container to avoid possible cross contamination of chemicals located in adjacent reagent pads.
4. Read results at the dictated time for each test. Beginning the moment the strip is removed from the specimen, compare reagent area to the color chart on the pouch. (Hold strip close to color block and match carefully. Do not touch the color block with the test area).
Each bottle of urinalysis reagent strips includes a color coded chart. The reactive color of each panel (square) on the test strip is compared to the corresponding color on the result chart. The concentration level range for each chemical marker is indicated below each color block on the result chart. As with all tests dealing with color intensity or color matching, it is often recommended to obtain another person's interpretation of the test result. Each of the ten reactive reagent pads on the test strip are compared to the corresponding line of color blocks on the chart. The closest color match indicates the test result. Use of reagent strips are intended as an initial indication only of elevated chemical markers and not conclusive of a specific diagnosis. Further testing and consultation is necessary to confirm the presence of specific disease or health conditions.

A four man team set a goal of removing 30,000 pounds of fish from Joe's Valley reservoir. The fish being targeted are chubs, a non-native, non-game fish species which was introduced into the lake as live bait. This introduction was unwanted and illegal.
Chubs are a prolific species and compete with game fish in the reservoir. Even though the larger trout feed on the chubs, the smaller trout are in a fierce competition with the chubs for food and space.
Justin Hart, Division of Wildlife Resources sport fish biologist said, "By removing the chubs, we are hoping to free up more space and food for the smaller trout. This will enable them to go into the winter fatter and healthier."
"This is our sixth day, and we hope to continue for another week and a half. We have removed about 13,000 pounds of chubs so far. At four to a pound, that is a lot of chubs. Our average per day is around 2,500 pounds. We are taking them to the landfill for burial, but a few sportsmen have come up and taken some dead ones to freeze and use for bait," stated Hart.
The crew is using five live trap nets which are 50 feet long. They are placed in the shallows around the lake and are checked daily. As the fish swim around the shoreline, a funnel like fence draws them into the trap. When the traps are checked, the trout are removed and placed back into the lake, and the chubs are removed.
"We know we will not be able to remove all of the chubs, but we intend to make a big dent in the chub population in this reservoir. This is a great fishery for splake and other types of trout. The fishing has been really good lately and we hope to give the smaller trout a greater chance for winter survival," concluded Hart.
The four man team consists of Hart, and summer technicians Mike Ault, Steve Regruto and Matthew Serfustini.

No one drives a taco truck yet in my neck of Kansas, but since the craze is contagious and we do have access to good local corn tortillas, I too have become an aspiring tacologist.
In this new science, those behind the wheel of the taco truck trend provide both our inspiration and some ground rules: All of our experiments will be delicious. We will be respectful of—but not hamstrung by—authenticity. And the toppings should be crunchy, colorful, maybe creamy, and more interesting than iceberg lettuce and Jack cheese. Continue reading

Great Shoes!
"I bought these shoes for my MS Graduation and I love them! The sparkles are what makes these shoes special and none of the sparkles came off! In the light, the sparkles are rainbow and I just love them! I really like the height of the heel, and they are extremely comfortable! They are also good quality and all my friends kept asking me where I got my shoes from and said they loved them."

"We bought these shoes for my sister's formal at school. The heel isn't too high- she never wears heels and could walk comfortably. They are super sparkly. The area around the toe is a little tight at first, but not so bad after they're worn for a bit."

Super Super Cute!!
"Love these pumps! They look prettier than the pictures online. I ordered them to wear for a night out. The glitters are very pretty. They don't look like they can be rubbed off easily. I'm not suggesting walking 5 miles in them or standing in them all day, but comparing to some other high heels that I've worn, these are far more comfortable. The back of the sole area is a little tight, especially new. If you are worried about the back of your feet being pinched, I would recommend stretching your shoes for a few days before wearing them. I put the paper stuffer that came with the shoes in the sole area. Overall, very cute pumps. Good buy for your money."

Ireland silenced their critics with an impressive 46-24 victory over Argentina at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin on Saturday.
Ireland silenced their critics with an impressive 46-24 victory over Argentina at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin on Saturday.
Ireland led from start to finish in a dominant display, outscoring their visitors seven tries to two.
Few would have expected such a one-sided clash after Argentina's recent win over Wales but the home side produced their best performance since pushing the All Blacks close in June to run the Pumas ragged.
The result ends Ireland's five-Test losing streak and secures their place among the second seeds for the 2015 World Cup draw.
Ireland raced to 24-9 lead by half time thanks to tries from debutant Craig Gilroy, fly-half Jonathan Sexton, hooker Richardt Strauss and full-back Simon Zebo. Argentina's only reply came via three penalties from pivot Nicolas Sanchez.
Unlike a fortnight ago when the Springboks turned the tables on Declan Kidney's men, the second half saw Ireland secure victory with two tries from Tommy Bowe and another from Sexton as the green-clad pack ruled in the tight exchanges and the backs hit their straps.
Argentina scored two consolation tries – via Tomas Leonardi and Juan Martin Fernandez Lobbe – in the final ten minutes but will be disappointed with their effort.
Gilroy got his international debut off to a perfect start by scoring a fabulous try after taking a flat pass from Sexton and beating handful of defenders, putting the hosts in front early on – and they never looked back.
Sexton grabbed his first try shortly afterwards with an equally good run to step his way to the whitewash. Strauss emerged from a line-out drive to crash over and give Ireland a 19-6 lead at the end of the first quarter. The result looked done and dusted.
Bowe and Sexton combined to send Zebo over the corner before the half-time whistle, handing the Ireland a 15-point headstart as the sides swapped ends.
Sanchez landed his fourth penalty of the afternoon to get the second half started but two tries in the space of four minutes from Bowe and Sexton ended any hopes of a comeback from the Pumas.
Bowe collected Sexton's chip ahead to gather and touch down before bagging his second after some fancy footwork from Gilroy and a final pass from Donnacha Ryan.
Argentina pushed hard for a try but to their credit, the Irish defence never backed off had held firm against multiple waves of heavy Argentine ball carriers.
The final Irish try arrived when Bowe pounced on Keith Earls' chip kick, but substitute Leonardi and skipper Fernandez Lobbe scored late tries from short range to give Argentina some respectability on the scoreboard.
Man of the match: A few candidates here and Jonathan Sexton deserves a mention for his two tries and getting the Irish backline going. But Ireland really won the game up front and Donnacha Ryan stood out, not only in the line-outs but for his tireless work cleaning out at the breakdown.
Moment of the match: The writing was on the wall early for the Pumas. Craig Gilroy's try was a great start to both the game and a promising Test career.
Villain of the match: Maximiliano Bustos was for a silly swing of a handbag – throwing the ball into the face of opposite number Cian Healy – so not worthy of the villain award.

For Ireland:
Tries: Gilroy, Sexton 2 , Strauss, Zebo, Bowe 2
Cons: Sexton 3, O'Gara
Pen: Sexton
For Argentina:

The Emery County Drug Task Force made a meth bust on July 10. The task force received an anonymous tip that a subject was possibly bringing drugs into the county.
The subject was on probation and the Adult Probation and Parole became involved in the process to arrest the subject. The deputies stopped the subject by the Emery High School in Castle Dale and made the arrest of a male.
He was bringing approximately one ounce of methamphetamine into the county with an estimated value of $1,300. The meth was recovered along with scales, baggies and propane torches. Christopher Robin Wood from Price was booked into the Emery County Jail on charges of possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance.
Det. John Barnett, Deputy Blake Gardner and Agent James Weaver were involved in the apprehension of Wood.
It is presumed the drugs were coming into the county to be purchased by Emery County users at a predetermined location.
Emery County Sheriff Lamar Guymon said, "Our drug task force works diligently to arrest those persons attempting to bring drugs into our county. They work hard to slow down the supply of drugs for our users. As long as there are users in our county we will have people attempting to bring drugs into them and users selling drugs.
"We need everyone to understand what it takes to put a case together for it to hold up in court. Just because someone believes or thinks someone is using or selling, we need evidence. One of our big concerns is funding to the task force has been cut, that has hampered us a little bit, but we are still doing what we can with what we have. We appreciate the information from the public. That's usually how it begins and we take the investigation from there. It's based on their information. We also have the drug tip line for people who wish to remain anonymous who may have information to help us," said Sheriff Guymon.

Okuma Nomad Backpack
Whether you're hiking into your favorite fishing hole, gearing up for a camping trip, or jumping on a charter boat, the Okuma Nomad Backpack has you covered. Built with a staggering amount of storage, the Okuma Nomad Backpack features a wide variety of cavernous compartments to fit all of your gear.
The enormous main compartment is adorned with three mesh pockets and is spacious enough to easily accommodate boots, waders, and a jacket all together. Designed with a secure zippered flap, the bottom compartment contains three custom Nomad stowaways that are all built with a 12" scale molded into the lid. In addition, both sides of the Okuma Nomad Backpack are equipped with pockets that are large enough to fit sunglasses, sunblock, and pliers. Below the side pockets are roomy velcro'd pouches that can hold spools of line, or serve as a stash spot for plastics. On the front of the Okuma Nomad Backpack there are two more zippered compartments that can house cell phones, cameras, reels, or anything else that you will need for a successful fishing trip.
To make carrying all of your gear as comfortable as possible, Okuma fitted the Nomad Backpack with a thick padding along the back, as well as, wide padded shoulder straps. The Okuma Nomad Backpack is also furnished with a sternum strap, and an additional waist strap to provide even more support. For protection against inclement weather, Okuma incorporated a water-resistant cover that fits over the backpack and stores in a pocket on the top of the bag. Built with high-grade 600 denier rip-stop nylon and corrosion resistant zippers, the Okuma Nomad Backpack is bursting with storage to perfectly fit the lifestyle of the traveling angler.

Customer Reviews
Comments: I'm a shore fisherman and have to hike/bike to many of my local lakes, I wanted an upgrade to the Okuma backpack (bear logo) that I've been using. This Nomad fits the bill, it is much larger and heavier than the bear backpack, in fact it's almost twice as big. Tons of storage space and even though it is heavier/bulkier, the chest and waist strap distribute the weight evenly across your back and not at just the top or bottom.
From: AC: San Rafael, CA 3/10/14
Comments: Very nice, high quality bag with very comforatble shoulder strap. I like it a lot and it has helped me be able to get organized and take most of my stuff with me at once, not pick and choose beforehand what I MIGHT need before actually getting on the water to see the conditions. That being said, I do have one complaint... the zipper is HARD to pull and gets stuck easily.

The season ended well for Emery All Star Wrestlers. On April 6, 15 Emery wrestlers from preschool to sixth grade traveled to Panguitch to compete in the South Central Utah Bantam League State Championships. The team placed sixth overall and third in the 2A division competing with teams boasting three times as many wrestlers. The team brought home seven gold medals, four silver medals and three bronze medals. Taking gold were Sam Allen, Hayden Christiansen, Monty Christiansen, Mason Stilson, Byron Christiansen, Jess Christiansen and Chase Christiansen. Receiving silver medals were Mason Thornley, Damon Farley, Tyler Stilson and Jaren Allen. Easton Thornley, Dwayne Farley and Korby Christiansen received bronze medals and Gannon Ward finished just out of the medals.
Coach Kirk Christiansen said, "The boys have worked hard since October. We have wrestled and wrestled and their efforts have paid off. We have learned a lot of technique and had more fun together than you can imagine. As coaches we push the boys hard because the competition is so tough. This sport is tough but these boys have learned to be tougher. Everything else these boys face in life is easy compared to wrestling." He wishes to thank the dedicated parents that supported the team this season and hopes to have more wrestlers next year.
"Emery All Star Wrestling is open to all wrestlers and parents who want to wrestle on a competitive level. We work hard and play harder. We have been wrestling one night a week since October and we have had a great time and some great accomplishments. Our team boasts two gold medals from Utah Nationals and multiple medalists at 1A, 2A and 3A State Championships where Austin Guymon placed sixth and Ashton Dieli was second. The team received a sportsmanship award at the state competition. We need to thank those who came to practice with us through the year even if they didn't travel to tournaments. None of the boys could be successful without your hard work, sweat and tears, all of their success is yours as well."
One of the best tournaments for the team this year was held in Gunnison where the team received 11 gold medals, two bronze and two silver. Members also traveled to Heber City, South Sevier, Provo, North Sevier, Juab, Moab and North Sanpete. The Emery All Star Wrestlers have a mission to develop a wrestling culture here in Emery County, by helping parents use wrestling as a tool to teach life lessons. Dan Gable said "After wrestling, life is easy."

WatchGuard Dimension now includes unlimited scalability and availability, intuitive reporting enhancements and new language support
31 January, 2014 - WatchGuard® Technologies, a leader in integrated security platforms, has enhanced its real-time network security visibility solution, WatchGuard Dimension™, to support Microsoft's Hyper-V virtualisation platform, in addition to VMware. WatchGuard has also increased Dimension's scalability, availability and visibility.
"The global response we've seen from customers using Dimension with our XTM family of unified threat management (UTM) platforms has been unprecedented and helped to drive record financial results in Q4 2013," said Dave R. Taylor, vice president of corporate and product strategy at WatchGuard Technologies. "In record numbers, customers are using this cloud-based visibility tool to get key insights into security threats and critical trends in their environment. Although this product has been on the market for less than six months, we're moving quickly to make new enhancements in response to enthusiastic feedback from users."
UK-based WatchGuard channel partner Rockford IT is seeing growing demand for Dimension. "Our customers want to know what's going on in their networks in real-time and WatchGuard Dimension provides this visibility and automatically generates executive reports to deliver an immediate snapshot of the top users, threats and compliance issues," said Tom Sykes, Chairman at Rockford. "This latest addition of Hyper-V and other new features make Dimension an even more valuable tool and what's more, it's free for all WatchGuard XTM customers."
Frank Dickson, principal analyst at Frost & Sullivan, understands the value Dimension brings to the market as well and said, "We did a survey of more than 12,000 information security professionals and 56 percent reported that their organisation has too few information security workers. WatchGuard Dimension is a tool designed to make life easier for security professionals, especially those in the resource constrained mid-market, so they can more quickly distill key information security data into actionable policy creation."
WatchGuard Dimension is delivered as a free virtual appliance for XTM customers, which simplifies set up. The latest update includes faster access and increased scalability with external and shared database support. It also improves visibility with dynamic hostname resolution, and native language support for key countries will be available toward the end of Q1.

Mock drafts: who are the Leafs projected to select?
Cam Charron
June 28 2013 09:11AM
I've been scouring through a few mock drafts in the last couple of days to get a handle on the kind of player the Maple Leafs will get. The consensus seems to be that Toronto is going to be taking a big forward, after a year of taking two smooth-skating defencemen Morgan Rielly and Matt Finn early in the first and second rounds.
One problem with the Leafs system is that they don't have any "wow" forward prospects on the farm looking to come up. Since selecting Nazem Kadri, none of their forward prospects have become wicked productive in junior hockey or considered for Team Canada at the juniors, so it's tough to get excited about them. Tyler Biggs was on the American gold medal-winning team this past winter, but in a supporting role. At 21, I think the Leafs really, really, really need to go for skill over size more than anything else.
So, uh... who are people giving us?
Frederick Gauthier, Rimouski Oceanic
Both Sportsnet's Patrick King and TSN's Craig Button have the big Rimouski centreman at No. 21. This is from King:
Brian Burke may be gone, but the blue print he left behind is easily discernible after it paid dividends this season. The Maple Leafs evidently believe bigger is better, and given their emergence as a team, there's no reason to stray from that thinking now. A fairly strong defensive cupboard means they're more likely looking at a forward. Gauthier is a safe pick. He plays a solid, two-way game and is a presence on the draw — the type of player every team needs in close games.
I made the "safe pick" point about Gauthier a few weeks back and think it's the wrong move. Safe guys that are sure bets to make the NHL are a dime a dozen. Nobody ever goes after the "safe guy" in free agency or gets excited about the "safe guy" in free agency but that's where it's best to get the "safe guy". Jay McClement and Clarke MacArthur, both added to the Leafs via unrestricted free agency, were two excellent pickups and also the "safe guy". They signed for little risk, but both have been exceptional as Maple Leafs so far.
Kerby Rychel, Windsor Spitfires
Eye On Hockey's Chris Peters leans Gauthier as well, but...
I could see the Maple Leafs looking for a center in this position, which would make Frederik Gauthier a possibility, but I think Rychel may be too attractive to pass up here for Dave Nonis. After a 40-goal season in the OHL, Rychel is generating more buzz. He also plays with an edge and may be able to round out into a punishing, scoring power wing.
I like Rychel a lot too. He's less "toolsy" than Gauthier and attractive in the late half of the first round. One issue with him is the early birthday. A couple of years ago, friend of the blog Rob Pettapiece found that players younger on draft day were more likely to out-perform expectations. In the first ten picks, this shouldn't really matter, but after those ten, anybody selected is unlikely to be a real key player on a team. Drafting for home runs becomes important.
My only knock on Rychel is his birthdate: October 7th, 1994.
Rychel was also taken in the Nation Network's mock draft a couple of weeks ago. Here's Jonathan Willis' scouting report:
Kerby Rychel (OHL: 68GP, 40-47-87). A power winger with decent size, good bloodlines (his father is former NHL'er Warren Rychel), a strong physical game and outstanding scoring totals, Rychel is somehow not in the upper tier of the 2013 Draft Class. A big part of the reason is skating: it's often criticized and seen as only average-ish. Beyond that, he's more of a meat-and-potatoes generator of offence than overly creative, which has some wondering how high his ceiling is in the NHL.
Bob McKenzie also had Rychel ranked at 21, although there was no team consideration there. Included is Craig Button's scouting report about Rychel, which includes the line:
He may not be the most fluid skater but he's a very effective skater and he gets to where he wants to go.
That is the most roundabout way in history of saying a guy is not a good skater.
There are *other* prospects?
Well, of course there are.
TJ Maughn of Arctic Ice Hockey has the Leafs taking the Kraken from Klagenfurt Andre Burakowsky, who seems like a more home run swing type of player.
Corey Pronman of Hockey Prospectus has "really gifted defenceman" Robert Hagg at No. 21.
Yahoo's Buzzing the Net mock saw them taking Everett defenceman Mirco Mueller.
If the draft goes exactly like McKenzie's list (it won't) I'd take Nic Petan with that pick, but I'd be tempted to spend the pick on another offensive defenceman in Josh Morrissey. Laurent Dauphin and Anthony Duclair are also interesting guys to watch due to high point production in their rookie seasons.
I think Duclair can be had in the second just because he seems to be dropping because he didn't produce as expected this year. If that's the case I really hope they take him. He is lanky but he is also extremely talented and could be a huge steal. In the 1st round I really like a mix of safety and upside. I definitely think though in the 20's a team should be drafting high upside. I mean no offense to players like Tyler Biggs who will end up career 3rd liners, but they just aren't worth the asset of a 1st rounder. You can pick up 3rd liners easily in free agency and later rounds, but you should always be trying to add to your core with young top 6 forwards or top 4 defenseman. I like Kerby Rychel because he is likely a safe 3rd line player as his floor but also has top 6 ability plus he has pedigree for whatever that counts for and plays with an edge. He seems to be a nice fit. Kind of a Kunitz like player.
Personally, I am kind of hoping Anthony Mantha drops to them. I really like him and he is a goal machine with a 6'4 frame. Also really like Zykov, JT Compher and Petan.

New numbers released Thursday show increases in unemployment rates for Massachusetts and Connecticut for the month of June.
Massachusetts' jobless figure, is the highest it's been in nearly two years. At seven percent, it's up almost a half a point from May. Connecticut saw its unemployment rate rise slightly to 8-point-1 percent. It's remained about the same over the last several months. Both states actually saw job growth in May, but with more people looking for work, the jobless rates grew. Patricia Crosby heads the Franklin-Hampshire Regional Employment Board in Massachusetts. She says one demographic her agency has seen more of recently is the middle-aged:
"Many of whom have worked a long time and and very well at their job and have a very strong work history, but circumstances change, businesses go out of business, places downsize and they're finding themselves on the wrong end of that."
The Connecticut construction industry saw a surprising decrease in available jobs. Despite spring and summer typically being a busy time for building projects, positions in that sector were down more than 3 percent. Patrick Flaherty, an economist with the Connecticut Department of Labor, says a wet June is to blame.
"We're looking to see that turn around hopefully in July, although excessive heat is also sometimes difficult for the construction industry. We had an industry that had been growing, we're certainly well above where we were a year ago in terms of construction."

A clash of fixtures with the Six Nations means that France's heavyweights must travel without their European internationals this weekend.
A clash of fixtures with the Six Nations means that France's heavyweights must travel without their European internationals this weekend.
The leading trio of Toulon, Clermont and Toulouse all hit the road with les Jaunards facing the toughest test against Racing.
Perpignan head west for a Basque-Catalan clash with Bayonne while Stade Français will test their shaky form outside of the capital in Castres.
Montpellier, who are hunting a home play-off, host Biarritz while Grenoble will be to looking to hang onto their place in the stop six away to Mont-de-Marsan.
Friday, February 8
Racing Métro v Clermont – Preview here
Saturday, February 9
Agen v Toulouse
Bayonnais v Perpignan
Bordeaux-Bègles v Toulon
Castres v Stade Français
Mont-de-Marsan v Grenoble
Montpellier v Biarritz
1 Toulon 61
2 Toulouse 54
3 Clermont 54
4 Montpellier 45
5 Castres 44
6 Grenoble 42
7 Perpignan 38
8 Racing Metro 38

SU Agen v Stade Toulousain
Stade Armandie, Agen
Despite lying second in the standings, all is not well in Toulouse as the defending champions have not hit their straps in recent weeks, eking out unconvincing results.
Deprived of the internationals, Guy Novès and his team will hope the short break would have revitalised their game.
Agen meanwhile have not won since late September. Despite a few gutsy performances on home soil, it's difficult to see Philippe Sella's team getting the better of Toulouse, whom they have not beaten since 2006.
Agen welcome back Argentine centre Miguel Avramovic from injury while Australia full-back Ben Seymour returns from suspension.
Georgian hooker Jaba Bregvadze makes his return for Toulouse after ten months on the sidelines.
Previous result: Toulouse won 62-13
Prediction: Toulouse have not been at their best but would still expect to win. Toulouse by nine points
Kick-off: 15:00 (14.00 GMT)
Referee: Sébastien Clouté
Aviron Bayonnais v USA Perpignan
Stade Jean Dauger, Bayonne
After a difficult start to the season, Perpignan are on an upward trend, as illustrated by their win over Clermont last time out. Now just four points off the play-off spots, the Catalans are growing in confidence.
But a trip to Bayonne is never easy and the Basques are also in decent form following their solid win over Castres. Another success on home soil would ease their relegation worries significantly.
Perpigan have included lock Sébastien Vahaamahina in their extended squad despite him suffering from an ankle injury. Scotland lock Alasdair Strokosch has been ruled out for a month with a fractured eye socket. Veteran Prop Nicolas Mas is on international duty in Paris.
Previous result: Perpignan won 18-13
Prediction: The clash earlier this season was a tight affair and we expect a repeat, with the host coming out on top. Bayonne by five points
Kick-off: 15:00 (14.00 GMT)
Referee: Patrick Pechambert
Union Bordeaux-Bègles v Rugby Club Toulonnais
Stade Jacques Chaban-Delmas, Bordeaux
Stuck in the relegation zone, the last thing Bordeaux-Bègles need right now is a visit from the league leaders. The hosts will also be without coach Raphaël Ibanez, whose commitments to French television mean that he is also in Paris to cover the Six Nations.
With 42 points separating the clubs, Toulon are obviously favourites for victory but are coming off the back of two poor performances against Racing and Mont-de-Marsan.
Johnny Wilkinson and company have lost just twice on the road this season though, so expect a RCT to get job done.
Bordeaux-Bègles XV: Reihana, Talebula, Rey, Mailei, Le Bourhis, Lopez, Adams – Clarkin (cap), Purll, Madaule, Jaulhac, Treloar, Florea, Avei, Delboulbes
Previous result: Toulon won 42-12
Prediction: Toulon's record on the road in impressive. Toulon by ten points
Kick-off: 15:00 (14.00 GMT)
Referee: Mathieu Raynal
Castres Olympique v Stade Français Paris
Stade Pierre Antoine, Castres
After three consecutive defeats, Castres are under threat of dropping out of the play-off places. A return to their fortress at Pierre Antoine, where Stade Français do not have a great record, will come very welcome after losing in Bayonne last time out.
Stade Français have won their last two games at home but have tasted success just once on the road this season, at lowly Mont-de-Marsan.
Previous result: 20-20 draw
Prediction: Stade Français have a woeful record outside the capital. Castres by twelve points
Kick-off: 15:00 (14.00 GMT)
Referee: Christophe Berdos
Stade Montois v FC Grenoble
Stade Guy Boniface, Mont-de-Marsan
These two came up from the ProD2 together but have enjoyed vastly different fortunes in the top flight. While Grenoble have been this season's surprise package, Mont-de-Marsan have been totally out of their depth.
Although unbeaten on home soil, Grenoble have yet to win on the road this term and were hammered by Stade Français in Round 16, meaning Mont-de-Marsan will fancy their chances of picking up just their second win this season.
Grenoble XV: Tuculet ; Coetzee, Hunt, Jahouer, Dupont ; (o) Stewart, (m) Courrent ; Bernard, Faure, Vanderglas ; Hand, Farley ; Mutapcic, Hegarty, Edwards.
Previous result: Grenoble won 52-7
Prediction: It'll be an epic battle, but Grenoble should pick up their first win away from home. Grenoble to edge it
Kick-off: 15:00 (14.00 GMT)
Referee: Romain Poite
Montpellier Hérault Rugby v Biarritz Olympique
Stade Yves Du Manoir, Montpellier
Fourth-placed Montpellier seem out of the race for an automatic semi-final berth but are looking to firm their grip on a home play-off spot.
Biarritz are five points off the back of the play-offs race meaning a rare win in Montpellier is essential for Dimitri Yachvili and co. if they hope to be involved in the knock-out phases.
Benoit Baby will be joined by Pumas centre Marcelo Bosch in midfield in the absence on injured stalwart Damien Traille.
Biarritz XV: Balshaw ; Ngwenya, Baby, Bosch, Brew ; Barraque, Yachvili ; Gray, Harinordoquy, Guyot ; Dubarry, E. Lund ; Van Staden, August, Synaeghel.
Previous result: Biarritz won 27-8

On June 20, two horses were found dead near the sewer ponds in Huntington. The field in which the horses were found is being leased by an area resident. The horses belonging to two different owners were found with apparent gun shot wounds.
According to Jeff Thomas, detective for the Emery County Sheriff's Office one horse was shot through the lungs and a bullet has been recovered from that animal and taken into evidence and will be sent to the state crime lab for testing. The other horse was apparently shot through the head, although no fragments have been recovered from this animal.
The two horses were found within 100 yards of each other. Other criminal mischief was also found in the area, but it is not known if there is any connection. Both matters are under investigation.
The shootings occured sometime between the evening of June 19 and the time they were found on June 20. No one has come forward at this time with any information about the shootings.
"We don't have a lot to go on, but we are working on what we have learned so far. If anyone has any information concerning this incident. Please call the sheriff's office. The sheriff's office is offering a $500 reward with $100 being offered from one of the owners, for a total of $600 reward for information leading to an arrest in the matter. The number at the sheriff's office is 381-2404," said Thomas.

text: Sibling country-rockers the Curtis Brothers -- singer/guitarist Rick, singer/bassist Michael, and guitarist Tom -- launched their career in 1965, teaming with sister Patti and friend Travis Rose to form the psych-folk band These Vizitors in the family's hometown of Goshen, IN. After earning a devoted local following and even appearing on WGN Chicago's wildly popular children's television program The Bozo Show, the group signed to Capitol, traveling to New York City in 1967 to record with producer Phil Ramone; the sessions yielded five tracks in all, with the most commercial -- "For Mary's Sake" and "Happy Man" -- appearing as a Capitol single in May of 1968. By that time These Vizitors were settled in West Palm Beach, FL, appearing on local bills in support of the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Jefferson Airplane; when the single went nowhere, the group dissolved, although Rick and Michael continued pursuing a career in music. In 1972 the Curtises contributed original material and vocals to the Crazy Horse LP At Crooked Lake, which they parlayed into an option deal with Polydor; there they befriended the struggling duo of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks, and together the foursome cut a pair of demos: "Blue Letter" and "Seven League Boots." While the former was later re-recorded on the self-titled 1975 Fleetwood Mac album that heralded Buckingham and Nicks' addition to the group, the latter was later retooled by Crosby, Stills & Nash, becoming their 1982 smash "Southern Cross." In the interim, Tom rejoined his siblings, and as the Curtis Brothers -- a unit also including drummer Thom Mooney -- they cut an eponymous 1976 LP for Polydor. The album received little notice, and two years later the group completed a follow-up for International Artists -- for reasons unknown, the label shelved the project, and the Curtis Brothers officially parted ways. Mike later toured with latter-day lineups of the Byrds and Buffalo Springfield, in addition serving for 12 years as a member of singer/songwriter Hoyt Axton's backing band. Rick died unexpectedly after suffering a seizure in January 1995. ~ Jason Ankeny, Rovi

Reviewed By Lincoln Y (West Liberty, OH) Reviewed for a 2000 GMC Sonoma —9/29/2011 2:34 PM
I am happy with my purchase of the Extang Trifecta Folding TOnneau Cover. It looks decent on my GMC Sonoma and works for what I need it too. I had a few difficulties installing it because I have a bed liner. I had to cut holes in the liner, so the cover would fit correctly. It obviously wasn't made for a bed liner, but I managed. It is very difficult to open and close, because the bed liner is in the way, and you have to pull really hard on the handles to open and close the cover. Apart from these cons, I am still happy I bought this product and it will serve the purpose I intended it for.

Market check: "The Fed balks" is how UBS' economists headline their note to clients this morning, and give them this much: It's true. "[W]e now believe that the Fed will not begin tapering until the first quarter of 2014," potentially at the January 28-29 FOMC meeting," they write. One reason the economists think the Fed will wait that long: Christmas! "[W]e believe the Fed would prefer to avoid a Dec. 17-18 meeting tapering that could be viewed as too risky in the midst of the key holiday shopping season." I'd add the key congressional stay-at-home season, etc. This morning, SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is ahead by 0.4% in premarket trading around 7 a.m. ET while hedging tools like iPath S&P 500 VIX short-term Futures ETN (VXX) are on the decline again. Read my colleague Mike Aneiro's wrapup of the central bankers' Wednesday release and Ben Bernanke's press conference here and here.
Fund watch: A shift in the Dow Jones Industrial Average has knock-on effects for the $12 billion exchange-traded fund that tracks it — potentially big effects. Gene Koyfman of Index Universe lays out the issues with Goldman Sachs' (GS) entry, to take one example, into the SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average Trust (DIA): "In the case of Goldman, DIA would have to purchase about $830 million in shares. If that's done over one trading day, it would constitute more than twice Goldman's average daily volume over the past month. Such a large trade would likely move Goldman's stock price by at least 2 percent."

USDA Forest Service Employee One of Four Finalists for President's SAVE AWARD
Earlier this year, the President launched the SAVE Award – a program that offers every federal employee to chance to submit their ideas for how government can save money and perform better. In just a few weeks, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) received over 38,000 submissions, many of which will be implemented in the coming months. Now for a twist, the "final four" SAVE Award ideas were selected as finalists and will be voted on beginning today. Voting is open to federal employees as well as the general public.

Should Babies and Toddlers Watch Television?
From Gentle Baby Care by Elizabeth Pantley
So much television programming is aimed at young children. Much of it appears to be educational: teaching the ABCs and life skills. When is it appropriate to introduce a baby to television, and what do parents need to know about this topic?
A great deal of research has been done on the effects of television on children's lives. The first step in making the decision is to get the facts. Because nearly all of us have one or more TV sets in our home, and since most of us watch some TV nearly every day, we may not want to hear what research tells us, but these are things parents need to know.
