After completing a scientific technical education in chemistry, Lievore went on to work for an oil company. He later completed his military service and sought to further his love for design, so he began architecture at the Buenos Aires Faculty of Architecture. In 1977, he officially settled in Barcelona where he founded a studio in the Berenguer el Gran Square with colleague Norberto Chaves, and afterwards Daniel Perrando, Oriol Pibernat, and Jorge Pensi. Later, in 1984, he started his very own Alberto Lievore & Associates firm, which allowed him to learn and grow more as a designer. In 1991, he changed the name of his firm to Lievore Altherr Molina, as other designers Jeanette Altherr and Manel Molina joined the lineup. He still continues his incredible work with his firm, attaining worldwide acceptance and notability with his partners for their bold furniture designs.View other products by Alberto Lievore

Kaskaskia College Nashville Education Center Has Support of All Washington County Schools
The Kaskaskia College Nashville Education Center is proud to announce that all Washington County Schools have all signed resolutions of support for the construction of the College's Education Center in Nashville.
Cathy Karrick, Director of Public Information for the College says "We are pleased to have the support of the Washington County Schools!
This support is crucial to the campaign and shows the residents of Washington County that building this new center is a project being embraced by everyone in the district".
Washington County Schools include:
Ashley Elementary #15
Hoyleton Elementary #29
Immanuel Lutheran Okawville
Irvington Elementary #11
Nashville Elementary #49
Nashville High School #99
Oakdale Elementary #1
St. Ann Elementary
Trinity St. John Lutheran,
Trinity Lutheran Hoyleton, and
West Washington CUSD #10.
The schools were not asked to contribute financially to the project, but several have announced student groups within the schools are planning special fund raisers to assist with the project.
Mike Brink, Superintendent of Nashville Grade School says, "Nashville Community Consolidated School District #49 is pleased to be able to assist our residents by supporting the Nashville Education Center Campaign. The education center in Nashville has been extremely successful for many years by allowing residents to take classes through Kaskaskia College without having to travel to the main Centralia campus. This project will help support our residents by giving them access to additional programs and classes that are currently not offered. We fully support this initiative and will help out in any way that we can."
Dr Jim Underwood, President of Kaskaskia College, expressed appreciation for the support of the Washington County School Districts Boards of Education for their passing resolutions endorsing the expansion of the KC Nashville Education Center. He also expressed appreciation for the hard work of the project Education Team chaired by Mr. Kevin Rench.
As part of its capital campaign master plan, Kaskaskia College plans to expand the Nashville Education Center from its current location with 3,500 square feet of leased space to a building to be constructed at Route 127 and Exchange Avenue with 12,000 square feet of instructional and community space.
The new center will include classrooms and Nursing and Science laboratories, along with computer class rooms and a Distance Learning classroom.
The highlight of the spaces will be a block of four classrooms that can be opened up into one large space that can accommodate seating for 108 at tables or 246 in open seating, which will allow for larger gatherings and seminars.
The new building will also have an open computer lab for community as well as student use, and three Business Incubator offices that will house three small business startups, with technology and administrative help for prospective entrepreneurs.
For more information or to make a donation to the campaign, please call Ruth Barczewski at the Nashville Center at 327-9136 or email
or Suzanne Christ at 545-3060 or email

Skip to comments.Sandwich Maker 'Threatened' After Refusing to Put Ketchup on Cheesesteak
Posted on 01/05/2013 10:12:49 PM PST by smokingfrog
A Florida man just wanted ketchup on his Philly cheesesteak sandwich at Subway. When he didn't get it, a confrontation with the sandwich maker ensued, leading to a 911 call.
Now-former Subway employee Lawrence Ordone told TV station WFTV he was working behind the counter at the sandwich restaurant in an Orlando Walmart on New Year's night, when a man ordered a Philly cheesesteak.
"He (the customer) wants ketchup on the Philly cheesesteak and I have never put -- we don't even have ketchup at Subway -- I've never put ketchup on anybody's sandwich," Ordone told WFTV.
The restaurant chain -- famed for its "$5 footlongs" and diet commercials with "Subway Guy" Jared Fogle -- does not offer ketchup, according to a menu on the Subway website. Only condiments like mustard, mayo, vinegar and oil are available.

Did he get fired or quit?
What a greedy corporation, that poor deprived citizen is certainly due a large settlement for his suffering.
Who ever heard of a restaurant that refuses to have ketchup?
I guess the founder of Subway must have had some early childhood problem.
Don't tell anyone in Philly, but sliced ribeye and wiz on an Amorosa roll with nothing else but KETCHUP is pretty tasty. Oscar Madison said it best: "I like ketchup - it's like tomato wine."
That is a little strange. But, still, anyone who want ketchup on a Philly cheese steak ought to be taken out back by the dumpsters and fluffed up a bit.
The local donut shop here doesn't have ketchup. I don't know if they'd refuse it, though. Not that many people, at least here in these parts, find that ketchup improves donuts.
As Ben Franklin said, "Ya don't put ketchup ona Philly".
(He would've said it if he had a Philly)
He fled the scene, so I'm guessing he was fired.
I don't understand why Subway can't have ketchup, but they don't, and that's the way it has always been.
I've carried my own packets once or twice, but I've gotten used to not having ketchup on my subs.
I think he was fired.
You would think that they would at least have some ketchup packets.
The closest thing would be the tomato sauce for the meatball sub I guess.
" anyone who want ketchup on a Philly cheese steak ought to be taken out back by the dumpsters and fluffed up a bit.
Being a southern boy, I have never seen a Philly Cheese steak, and I have no desire to even try.
That being said, no one is going to tell me what and what not I can put on my food.
If you eat at my house, the steak will be medium rare and I will not serve A1 or ketchup.
Burly Detective: Come on, Harry. Take it easy.
Harry Callahan: Or this job, either. Having to wade through the scum of this city, being swept away by bigger and bigger waves of corruption, apathy and red tape. Nah, that doesn't bother me. But you know what does bother me?
Burly Detective: What?
Harry Callahan: You know what makes me really sick to my stomach?
Burly Detective: What?
Harry Callahan: Is watching you stuff your face with those hot dogs. Nobody, I mean NOBODY puts ketchup on a hot dog.
Ketchup with Lobster, you want Ketchup!
Who would put ketchup on hot dogs? I would. That said Subway does not offer ketchup at all. It is not McDonalds. (But then I never asked)
A Taiwanese woman told me that after seeing spaghetti on an American TV show, her family decided to try it. So they cooked noodles and covered them with ketchup.
Ketchup on a Hamburger, Mustard on a Hotdog, just as God intended.
lol That was funny.
Is Subway called GrinderWay in Boston?
Who eats a cheesesteak without ketchup?
Do Subways not have ketchup at all locations?
(I don't frequent Subway very often, but if they don't have ketchup I sure won't be visiting one anytime soon.)
That's why Harry got to carry the big gun....A couple of 44 slugs flying overhead would make anyone lose their appetite for ketchup on a hot dog. Ole Harry knew!
Ketchup is yucky - good for not polluting anyone's sandwich with that crud.
Sriracha works on everything.
I have used Sriracha on rare prime rib, turkey, corn flakes, brownies...
Best Philly Cheese steak ever. They put Russian Dressing on it. mmmmmmmmmm
Who would befoul an innocent cheesesteak with ketchup?
Jean Fraude Kerry, but of course.
>> and fluffed up a bit.
LOL... "Don't push your luck, customer, or you'll end up in porno film"
While I love catsup with a variety of comestibles, I never put it on steak. And I love Subway's Phill cheese sandwiches. You don't catsup on it.
make mine ketchup and mustard on both. With a little pickle relish. yum yum!
So....putting Whiz on it is okay? I can tell you one thing. I used to love Cheese Whiz when I was a boy in the 50s. It was real then. Today's Whiz is nothing like the original - it has a funny after taste to it.
[And, yes, I write this even with the understanding of the great fun other Freepers will have with 'whiz' 'aftertaste' and so on.]
I think I had a Philly cheesesteak a couple times, I guess it didn't rock my world. But sometimes I like seared roundsteak with a thin layer of ketchup spread over the whole thing while it's sizzling hot, and lots of black pepper. Yum.
I don't know about putting ketchup on a Philly but I do remember the late Chicago columnist Mike Royko had a thing about people who would put ketchup on a hot dog. He felt it was un-American. I tend to agree with him. Mustard or hot sauce, onions and a relish does it for me.
like ordering a non fat philly sandwich.
——famed for its——
Lettuce sandwiches.
——famed for its——
Lettuce sandwiches.
Oh and BTW......... on the subject of FRESH. Every thing there except the lettuce and tomatoes is brought in frozen. The bread, the meat, the eggs....... frozen
One of the most disgusting things ever was the sight of a broken case of Subway Egg portions scattered across the frozen food warehouse floor.
For us Southerners, ketchup (catsup anyone?) is a basic food group.
That said, ketchup on a Philly — a popular Yankee sandwich — is a bit odd.
Never been to a Subway shop, their sandwiches on TV advertisements look like the bread is made of soft,soggy hot dog buns rather than crisp, chewy, baguette-type bread.
No ketchup in the store? Obviously they do not sell American style french fries!
If you eat at my house, the steak will be anyway you like it, I will serve A1 or ketchup.
I grew up in Newtown Square, 10 miles west of Philly. I have eaten many cheesesteaks in my time, and enjoyed ketchup on them. I also like onions, sweet and hot peppers on them as well. Pat' s and Geno' s are not the best, IMHO. I once ate a bellyfiller at Larry' s that immobilized me for several hours, but the family pizzerias usually made the best cheesesteaks.
I have NEVER had a hot dog without ketchup. Hot dogs without ketchup are sold in Cuba, Red China and North Korea. Oh, wait. They don't have hot dogs in NORK. Any live dogs remaining are in fear for their lives.
Being a southern boy, I have never seen a Philly Cheese steak, and I have no desire to even try.
That being said, no one is going to tell me what and what not I can put on my food.
It's one of the few things those yankees get right...Philly CheeseSteaks are pretty good ;)
Whatever the details, Ordone said he regrets his actions that led to his dismissal.
I grew up in Kensington,right in the heart of Philly and all I can say is What kind of a knuckle dragging barbarian puts ketchup on a cheesesteak?...Freakin' savages
Do you know that by not eating ketchup you are depriving John Kerry's wife from making millions from the sale of her company's number one product, "HIENZ" Ketchup. Disgraceful I tell you, absolutely disgraceful!!

Before heading to the UDS-Q me and my girlfriend went to Paris for a long weekend (since in 1yr that I live in France I had never visited it properly). We spent 4 fantastic days there, heading in and out from the Parisien metro and walking our way throught out the city, even in not so tourist places.
As usual, coming back home, I had like 5 GByte of pictures in my camera, and due to the few days before leaving for the USA, I hadn't had the time to process them. Come back from the UDS, and here there is the Paris photostream.
One picture was still missing though, since it required a little bit of work, and yesterday night I eventually managed to "compose" it. Compose because it is a "small" panorama, made of 7 pictures, taken while sitting on the Seine banks close to Notre Dame. The view goes from Notre Dame on the left to the Hotel de Ville on the right, plus other buildings looking at the river. The original TIFF format of the panorama wheighs in at 2.6 GB of disk space, measuring 46366*14910 pixels, it takes like 5 minutes on my machine to open with Gimp, and it took me something like 4 hours of work: loading the 7 TIFF images with Hugin, processing it for the first time, manually adding as much matching-points as possible, waiting for the final result, and finally opening it up with Gimp to play with it in different ways (next time I will use imagemagick).
This is a small-size result:
A little bit bigger image can be found on my gallery.
I'm happy with the outcome, it's the hugest panorama I have ever created. I think me and my girlfriend will print it out (not in the original size, 'cause it will be close to 7 meters!) and hang it somewhere around the house.

Customer Reviews
Comments: Just learning the whole dock skipping thing at Lake of the Ozarks and this jig performs well. I like the way it skips and falls. Also fishing some rocky bluffs without getting hung up very much. The paint could be more durable but a good jig at a good price.
From: Ruff:Missouri 11/22/16
Comments: The hook keeper shreds trailers easily! I like this jig, but I go with the grassmaster because the trailer keeper is made of wire and it cuts right through the plastic and shreds it. I go through 5x the amount of trailers
From: Joe: Minneapolis, MN 8/30/16
Comments: This is my Favorite jig to flip & swim. It does pretty well in heavy cover & is my all around jig. The hook might bend sometimes but not enough to make a difference in your fishing. Has a good weed Gaurd & skips well. A great jig for someone who is just getting started into flipping & skipping a jig.
From: Will: SC 8/20/16
Comments: A trim of the skirt, throw on your favorite chunk/trailer & you'll be set. Don't let the skinny hook scare you, it is tough. Caught plenty of LMB & SMB in MN with this jig. IT WON'T DISAPPOINT.
From: Steukhon: MN 8/10/16
Comments: Great jig, these skipping jigs skip amazingly well. Bast jig for the price & quality, these jigs hold up great to big bass.
From: Jeremy: FL 12/31/15
Comments: I found the 3/8 oz to be perfect for skipping. It can also be used as swim jig. My only gripe is that I'd like a stouter hook and weed guard.
From: Adam: Long Island, NY 7/13/15
Comments: Real high quality jig that I use for swimming. Light wire hook sets itself. Great colors and solid paint job. My only concern was the painted hook eye. braided line slides around the eye, very slick. tried scraping it off but the finish is some sort of super hard coating. try the black and blue with a single tail yammy grub black blue flake. catches fish everywhere.
From: Dave: Mohawk River, NY 4/20/15
Comments: All Terrain Needs To Put This Jig Out In Shad Colors. I swin this jig more than any other and I would choose this over their normal swim jig any day. These jigs are super hot, by far my alltime favorite.

From: Chris: TN
Comments: Awsome jig works really well with a Strike King Rage Tail Space Monkey. I think this may be my new favorite dock fishing bait.

Vanuatu is very different from other Pacific nations. Traditional practices better known as Kastom remain strong even after a century of dual colonial religious influences. Kastom: Art of Vanuatu presents for the first time the unique collection of arts from this area held by the National Gallery of Australia. In the early 1970s the Gallery contracted an agent to field collect in Vanuatu resulting in the acquisition of nearly two hundred works, a selection of which will be accompanied by other important works from the NGA's Vanuatu collection.
An array of compelling sculptures created for ritual events include the towering four metre figure Maghe ni Hivwir created from tree fern to Ramparamp - the life sized effigies of chiefly men which enabled them to live beyond death. Upright slit drums Atingting hewn of entire tree trunks topped with big eyed faces, sculptures of otherworldly beings in wood, tree fern, clay and stone all feature with the exhibition alongside one of the oldest scientifically dated works from Vanuatu a rare mask known as Chubwan.
Through the NGA's rich collection it can be seen that Kastom is an inseparable part of Ni-Vanuatu culture, a vibrant living culture where the arts produced for traditional purposes, as recently as the early 1970s, are remarkably comparable to those of long ago.
Proudly supported by the National Gallery of Australia Council Exhibitions Fund.

Panic Trading Evander Kane Would Be Hilariously Asinine
Dimitri Filipovic
December 21 2012 10:25AM
Evander Kane is holding a lot of money. But he's also quite money, himself.
On Wednesday morning, Evander Kane took a picture of himself holding what Chemmy from Pension Plan Puppets deduced to be $225,800. For some reason, this incident caused quite the outrage in both Winnipeg, and the Twittersphere.
On Thursday morning, Gary Lawless of the Winnipeg Free Press wrote an article in which he adamantly declared that Evander Kane would be not playing out the full length of his recently signed 6-year contract in Winnipeg. Rather than responding to this instantly, I took some time to stop hysterically laughing, and compose myself, before I started banging away at my keyboard.
If the Winnipeg Jets were to panic trade Evander Kane due to his perceived immaturity and shenanigans, I'm not sure if all the time in the world would be enough to get me to stop laughing, though.
Read Past the Jump for More.
I'm responding to Lawless' article because his voice holds credence with me. He is in-tune with the entire situation, and I have no doubts that he has something concrete; at least something concrete enough for him to write an article like the one I'm referring to (and have linked above).
Parting with Evander Kane - for less than 100 cents on the dollar, which is what I'm assuming they'd receive in return in a trade at this point - would be something that the Winnipeg Jets organization would come to regret for years upon years. For the most part, I've been onboard with what GM Kevin Cheveldayoff has done thus far. But this could be a potentially fireable offence.
In his first three seasons in the NHL, Kane has bulged the twine 63 times, including a 30-goal campaign this past season. For a frame of reference, 62 players in NHL history have put together a 30-goal season before the age of 21. On that list, players still currently active are: Ovechkin, Stamkos, Crosby, Kovalchuk, Malkin, Jagr, Toews, Kopitar, Rick Nash, Ryan Smyth, Jason Arnott, Marian Gaborik, Jeff Skinner, and Evander Kane. That's it. I've heard of those guys.
Even last season, a grand total of 30 players ecclipsed the 30-goal plateau. Goals are harder to come by, and Evander Kane specializes in scoring goals. There's immense value in that, despite what you may think to be flaws in his character.
In October, Rob Vollman used his VUKOTA system to do projections for the 2012-13 campaign for Jets forwards. In Kane's case, he noted that his "first three seasons bare an uncanny resemblance to fellow shot-taking, hard-hitting power forward Corey Perry." He went on to peg him for 30 goals, and 70 points. Obviously those particular numbers were deemed irrelevant with the lockout stretching well into the winter, but the point was made.
He shoots a ton. He fights. And he's as exciting as it gets. He's a player that you can sell to your fans as a franchise player; someone that you will build around for years to come. He's also on a team-friendly contract ($5.25 million cap hit) until 2018.
It's worth noting that I tweeted a joke about the Jets panic trading Kane on Twitter, and the response that came was a handful of Canucks fans quickly jumping at the opportunity to voice their dreams about Kane becoming a Canuck. I'm quite sure that fans of the other 28 teams feel the same way, as well. "Man, if only we could get our hands on that guy!"
Don't be upset though, Jets fans. At least your team will give Ondrej Pavelec $19.5 million over the next five years.
Sometimes the best trades are the ones you don't make. And if you're a Jets fan, that's never rang truer.
December 21 2012, 10:38AM
Thanks for saving me the trouble of writing pretty much the same thing after I got home from work, Dimitri. This whole kerfuffle over a young guy tweeting an intentionally silly picture is the ultimate example of a tempest in a teapot.
Thankfully, only the truly dim (like the lead columnist at the local broadsheet) would run a guy off on that basis, and for whatever I might think about the Jets' management from time to time, they only appear to do really dumb things when it comes to overpaying awful goalies.
December 21 2012, 10:43AM
I couldn't agree more, Dimitri. But there's a certain group of people in Winnipeg who have been looking for a reason to push him out of town basically from the get-go. Unfortunately, that group doesn't listen to a.) reason, b.) statistics, nor c.) the ridiculousness of its own arguments.
Good take Dimitri. I mostly agree, but if the bit in the Lawless article about him taking his girlfriend on the road is true then I can see why the Jets management isn't entirely sold on him as a franchise player. I don't know what the answer is for that particular problem, as the Jets don't have as much of an established leadership group as some teams do. Maybe have former Jets greats or people he respects talk to him about it?
He's still a very young player who has learning and maturing to do. Let him do it before running him out of town.
December 23 2012, 03:33PM
How many times have we seen this in hockey....the old story of a talented young player with his head in his ass. Do you keep the talent with the possibility of poisoning a dressing room or fan base (the biggest factor to me in all the "rumours" is the one that he ignores teammates advice), or let him become someone elses problem for less than face value.
Its a tough call, especially for a team that is offensively challenged. If the Jets had multiple options in the top 6 then I think an owner like Chipman, very conservative, very much community orientated, would love nothing more than to ditch a "possible" troublemaker like Kane.
Stuff like taking his girlfriend on road trips and such, seems petty on the surface, but the issue is, if the team has rules, written or otherwise, when a young player sees himself above them, how do you enforce those same rules with others? This is how a player like Kane can become devisive.
Also, another factor, if you believe that the kid truly has an attitude issue and you do want to move him, how long do you wait? As each issue arrises, the number of trade partners lessons and lessons. Right now certain teams would be definitely willing to grab the kid (Leafs spring to mind), but that will change with each and every story, true or not.

Mosquito bites are often little more than itchy and annoying. They can, however, lead to a pair of serious and potentially deadly diseases, West Nile Virus and the more-serious Eastern Equine Encephalitis, or Triple-E. In 2012, three people in Massachusetts died from Triple-E and one died from West Nile. State Public Health Veterinarian Catherine Brown says previous year activity can actually more likely predict current year activity.
"And so given the intensity of what we saw last year, we're certainly particularly worried about Triple-E. West Nile Virus is less dependent upon what happened the year before."
Brown says however, a number of factors make it difficult to predict the severity of mosquito-borne illnesses from year-to-year–like the size of mosquito populations, weather and the presence of infected birds.
"And all of those factors have an interplay, which ends up resulting in either a significant West Nile Virus or Triple-E year or a less significant year."
To prevent mosquito bites, officials urge people to use insect repellent when outdoors and to consider wearing long clothing. Mosquitos with West Nile have already been detected in Eastern Massachusetts this summer. In Connecticut, experts have collected double the usual amount of mosquitos for this time of year, but none have tested positive for either disease.

Second inaugurals tend to meet with less fanfare than their predecessors. However, to say that they lack the same significance oversells the point. Rather, they present a unique opportunity. For example, some Presidents may use the opportunity to signal a political pivot while others may choose to double down on their first term. Bill Clinton's second inaugural address, delivered January 20, 1997, is an excellent example of the former. For long stretches it simply reinvigorated the base. However, for those with an acute ear, there are telling signs of a more conciliatory term to come. The move to the center that defined his second term was exemplified by decrying the omniscience of the state: As times change, so government must change. We need a new government for a new century – humble enough not to try to solve all our problems for us, but strong enough to give us the tools to solve our problems for ourselves; a government that is smaller, lives within its means, and does more with less. In clearly suggesting that the idea of shrinking government was up for debate, Clinton opened the window for then-Speaker Newt Gingrich. Clinton also touched on the core of conservative values: individualism and self-reliance: Our founders taught us that the preservation of our liberty and our union depends upon responsible citizenship. And we need a new sense of responsibility for a new century…Each and every one of us, in our own way, must assume personal responsibility -- not only for ourselves and our families -- but for our neighbors and our nation. For many, the speech is unremarkable. While much of the speech resounded with liberal rhetoric, it also reached an olive branch to the other side. And despite bitter partisan battles, the President seemed willing to compromise in his second term. Budgets were passed, crossing the aisle became an actuality, and the deficit vanished (although some of the success was muddied in the waters of later scandal). Given the subsequent success of this lens, one would have expected more of the same from President Obama. After all, some of his challenges are similar to those faced by Clinton, though partisan gridlock is at even higher levels. Obama's second term is going to be largely defined by his ability to govern in this reality. Yet, somewhat surprisingly, Obama's tactic has been to draw a harder line. He established an obdurate tone with his fiscal cliff press conference a few weeks ago. And I would argue that he doubled down in his inaugural. Some conservatives, may have found little to love in Obama's address. For example, the President began by referencing the necessity of regulation, which conservatives oppose: Together, we discovered that a free market only thrives when there are rules to ensure competition and fair play. And when he discussed American individualism, he also tied it to liberal values of collective action: …preserving our individual freedoms ultimately requires collective action. For the American people can no more meet the demands of today's world by acting alone… In previewing programmatic themes of his second term, Obama was the first American President to reference climate change in an inaugural address: We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations. Some may still deny the overwhelming judgment of science, but none can avoid the devastating impact of raging fires, and crippling drought, and more powerful storms. Perhaps more important, he became the first to use the word "gay" in an inaugural address: Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law - for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well. Taken separately, these remarks are not shocking. However, on aggregate the message is a strong one. Obama is asserting a stronger liberal agenda, free of reservation. The President's more partisan line is a major break from the leader we have come to know. The man once portrayed as staying above the fray, now stands in the middle of it. This raises two questions. First, is he posturing or truly changing his negotiating style? Second, if this alteration is authentic, how will it be received? As referenced in a previous column, smart politics sometimes involves the placation of an opposition's pride. President Obama's is now repeatedly doing the opposite. That could cost him. It is a big political risk. By challenging Republicans to a staring contest he puts his legacy in the balance. Time will tell whether it is a gamble that will pay off.

Post-Game: How To Outwork A Young Turk
January 27 2013 12:58AM
Well friends, it was one of those nights. A collection of perfect moments stacked on top of other perfect moments. It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon that melted away into a decadent Saturday night, and with a national audience including in house appearances by Ron, Don, and Spike Lee (prove to me that he WASN'T there), your Calgary Flames put the cherry on top.
In case you didn't notice, we had ourselves a little bit of a Battle of Alberta tonight, and true to form, it was a spirited tilt, where all the surrounding optics that usually follow teams over the course of the season fade, and the two provincial rivals, regardless of where they are in the course of their respective histories, combine to treat fans to some of the purest hovkey you will ever see. Tonight was just one more pristine example of how beautiful this game can be when two impassioned franchises rise above themselves and leave everything on the line.
The Flames, however, were just much much better this time around.
Get Off My Back, Monkey!
You've heard it all month now: "In a lockout shortened 48 game season, every game is important". Which is, I suppose, at least a little bit true. So it's safe to say that when you're playing your fourth game and still looking for your first win, well, YOU BETTER GET THAT FIRST WIN.
What better way to smash though that wall then by putting stick to the "good" forever rivals talking a big game up north? It's cute when they talk like that, but the Flames did a good job of reminding them who was the babysitter and who was the baby tonight.
Mikael Backlund continued his mini-renaissance by opening the scoring in the first period by scoring a decidedly Ryan Smyth goal (which is to say, an ugly one). Jay Bouwmeester, who was an absolute bull tonight (you read that right), made it 2-0 after slipping one past a Jarome Iginla screened alleged starting goaltender Deven Dubnyk shortly after the Flames power play had expired.
The Oilers did make it worth watching before the end of the stanza as Anaheim's Most Wanted Justin Schultz blasted a maybe questionable gun past Flames goalkeeper Miikka Kiprusoff who, unsurprisingly, was bananas good for most of the game.
That said, the Oilers did outchance the Flames in the beginning frame, putting up 6 chances to Calgary's 4 (despite Calgary outshooting the Oilers 13-10 (13 shots in the first period! (!))), which is hilarious, because 2-1 Flames. What an organization.
From that point on, it was all Flames. Like if not for the fact that it was absolutely hilarious, it wouldn't have even been funny.
Despite Jordan Eberle scoring the Oilers second PP goal of the night while Mark Giordano was sitting in the penalty box for watching Eberle fall over, it was about the only real shred of offense we'd see from those precious young children for the balance of the contest.
Curtis Glencross potted his third goal of the season to start the second, on a BONKERS dish from Jarome Iginla, and Lee Stempniak also cashed in his third (on an equally pretty pass by Bouwmeester) as his scheduled hot streak continues on over the early part of the campaign for the Flames. The boys in red outchanced the Oilers 9-4, outshot them 13(!)-4, and things started to get real dusty over on the Edmonton bench.
The third period was Calgary's offering to let the Flames fans embrace themselves in the win, playing a tough defensive game that just shut down the vaunted Oiler's still really kind of puny offensive efforts. The Oilers managed 20 shots to end the game along with 13 scoring chances, while the Flames finished the night with 18 chances, 35 shots, and most importantly, 2 points, while Flames head coach Bob Hartley earned his first of hopefully many wins as a Calgary Flame.
And golly, it was fun to watch.
J-Bo Est J-Bon
That's French, y'all.
While outside of Blake Comeau and to an extent Matt Stajan, neither of whom were particularly good, and Sven Baerstchi, who was limited to 5 minutes, presumably on purpose, most of the Flames played out of their skulls on this night. Lee Stempniak had a three point night, Iginla was a bull, and Kipper is as Kipper does (which is be awesome at things).
But Bouwmeester was the man on this one. Playing 24:01 of the most important minutes of the game (as always) (somehow the Flames leader in ice time was Dennis Wideman, so that's a thing that happened), Bouwmeester had a goal and an assist and was all over the ice on both ends of the puck. He even led the odd rush, in Bobby Orrwellian fashion, which is a term I just made up. He looked very much like the player everyone expected to see when Stanley Cup Winner Darryl Sutter signed him to a six year eleventy billion dollar contract three seasons ago. He was worth the money tonight.
He even hit a couple of people, so get your smile on, Jay, you've been deemed pretty good at hockey by a panel of experts who were watching you tonight and are only mostly me on that panel.
One of the big stories going into the game (outside of it being the Battle of Alberta that the Oilers were supposedly going to decimate the Flames in, which is adorable, thanks for coming out Edmonton, you were all like puppies out there) was that the Flames were FINALLY going to get to debut their significant offseason acquisitions, Jiri Hudler and Roman Cervenka.
While Cervenka, who hadn't played in a game since November, and has racked up a lot of frequent flyer miles flying between Russia, Calgary, Phoenix, and Mars over the past 10 days or so, looked unspectacular, which you might expect, but you can see that good things are coming. And that. freaking. rules.
Hudler, on the other hand, was all Black Crowes about it, being way to hard to for the Oilers to handle on this night, running roughshod over the Schultzes of the world and even assisted on Lee Stempniak's game winning power play goal in the second.
The Czech forwards each played just under 18 minutes, and looked REALLY good when you consider they were centered by Matt Stajan, and they just made the Flames immediately better. The team has some depth now, and we're all happy to be able to hear that word again without any hint of sarcasm for once.
Kent said it best on twitter: I can say the Flames can actually ice to two full PP units for the first time in recent memory.
I couldn't agree more. This is not your father's Calgary Flames. Assuming your father only started watching the Flames 4 years ago.
Look out for the Flames, Citizens, because they are on their way.
January 27 2013, 04:38PM
If Hudler keeps playing like this, I'm fully prepared to eat some major crow. Can you barbeque crow?
Me to.
January 27 2013, 04:47PM
What if:
- Bouwmeester really is what he looked like last night.
- Cervenka becomes a bonified center.
- Brodie is capable at playing top 4 minutes.
Is this enough for the team to make the playoffs? I get it, we're talking buttons and bows, in the land of candycanes and chocolate. But, how good is this team, if last night becomes a normal pattern, and not just a single result?
January 27 2013, 04:54PM
The team is definitely better if last night is indicative. That said, Flames have had many games quite like this in the last few years, so we have to be patient to see if it truly reflects the club at hand.
January 27 2013, 06:17PM
I had the pleasure of watching the game on the ski hill with some buddies who are Oiler fans (excepf for my wife). Here are a few comments and observations:
"Where did the Bouwmeester guy come from, he's been all over the ice"
From my wife- "Iggy looks trimmer." I agree with that.
Taylor Hall was invisible. He gave up fhe puck evertime he touched it.
Yaks plays like an individual, not a member of team. Same as in the WJC's.
Defensive pairings looked good last night. I was apprehensive of th Brodie/Wideman combo at 1st but they look good.

Some day I'll get to watch a full game! So maybe if Comeau doesn't come around he gets slapped on the waiver wire and that opens up a spot for Sven? (yes I know they play opposite wings, but things move around)
January 28 2013, 08:55AM
On a side note, it certainly is refreshing to have a personable coach, who isn't afraid to smile.

Asked to turn around a franchise buried deep in the second division for a generation, Craig MacTavish looks to make bold steps on his first draft day. Oilers Nation--tired of losing and watching the brilliant youth acclimate to it--awaits the turnaround. Based on yesterday's rumors, this is one of the few days in organization history where "expect the unexpected" doesn't quite cover it.
This is Lake Louise. In my 50+ years on the planet, I have not seen anything more beautiful in nature. I love to walk around the lake, and afterward grab a hot chocolate and a blanket and then watch the world watch Lake Louise. I've met people from Germany, Japan, America, hell you name it folks have come to Lake Louise to see this view. In my view, it's perfect.
Craig MacTavish is about to put his stamp on the Edmonton Oilers, create his ideal, his version of what a winning team should look like when it's complete. Based on his conversations with the fanbase, and based on yesterday's explosive news about Cory Schneider, I think we know a few things:
- MacT is as aggressive as we thought he might be
- MacT is as devoted to keeping the puck out of the net as we thought he might be
- MacT will leave no stone unturned
- MacT will pursue players in their mid-20s to complete the roster
- There a no mid-20s players available in this draft
- The scouting department may have a lot of time on their hands today
- We could see as many as five Oiler trades today
- The Oilers are about to get a makeover
- The only calm scene for Oiler fans today is the photo of Lake Louise
I had planned on giving you a list of possible Oilers at the draft today, but with the top three Oiler picks in play that seems pointless. What we can talk about is MacT's vision of this team, why he believes they've failed in the past and how he plans to get them to the second season as soon as possible.
- BUILDING CHAMPIONSHIP TEAMS UP THE MIDDLE: In every sport, the mantra 'strength up the middle' holds sway, and for good reason. As good as the Oilers teams of the early 1980s were, they didn't win any Stanley's until the defensive side of the game received more attention, and until Mark Messier moved to center. At the same time, a young blue arrived as established NHLers and the good times began to roll. I think the idea of acquiring Cory Schneider and Braydon Coburn this weekend speaks to this desire, and perhaps we'll see the Oilers tell us Taylor Hall is moving to the middle (and Sam Gagner to the wing) as early as this week.
- EXPERIENCE IS VITAL: Importing Cory Schneider and Coburn is likely just the beginning of a large group of players who will be 25-30 years of age and have 200+ NHL games experience. We can add names like Cal Clutterbuck, Boyd Gordon, Paul Ranger, Viktor Stalberg, Andrew Cogliano, Scott Hartnell, Keith Yandle, Dustin Penner and Tom Gilbert into the mix as well: experienced men who are also young enough to hang around for a few years and help contribute to a brand new thing: winning hockey games.
- A LOT OF SAIL ON: Today, we may be saying goodbye to Shawn Horcoff, an Oiler since 2000 fall; Ales Hemsky, who wasn't much behind him; the 7th, 37th and 56th overall picks, which not so long ago represented ultimate value for the Oilers and the fanbase; and a plethora of other spare parts and assets of varying degree. Today could be one of the truly historic days of player movement in NHL history based on what we've been told--and the Oilers are front and center.
- A PERIOD OF TRANSITION: When you have enormous turnover, there's a time (often an entire season) of adjustment. Expecting a quick turnaround is a bad idea no matter how many imports of value arrive. The new players will have to develop chemistry with the current Oilers deemed good enough to stay, and Oiler fans will have to adjust to their calendar being turned upside down: the biggest day of the year will no longer be draft day. That lesson may be learned in one day--today!
Based on what I've read, Craig MacTavish is so determined to create the current team in his own image that he is willing to overpay, to lose some deals, in an effort to improve areas he believes are badly in need of help. His vision is not our vision necessarily, and that fact is driven home by the Schneider deal (as rumored last night). It is entirely possible we'll walk away from today believing the Oilers got less than 100 cents on the dollar, and it's also possible they'll be a better team as a matter of fact.
I think we have to acknowledge that what we're hearing from New Jersey this weekend is a half bubble off plumb compared to expectations. This happens when a powerful personality enters a situation and goes about the business of improving it. Remember when Jacques Lemaire arrived in Montreal as coach? Guy Lafleur was the established on ice power for the Habs, but Lemaire shuffled the roster and a more defensive strategy was used, effectively ending Lafleur's career in Montreal in about 20 games.
Craig MacTavish is doing some things we may find out of line with our own vision--it appears Devan Dubnyk is not the 'goalie of the future', and Nick Schultz is apparently about to get a teammate who does exactly what he does, and that checking line is going to be far more physical if Clutterbuck comes over from Minnesota.
This draft day will not be similar to the last ones. The impressive first round string that began with Sam Gagner and continued through Jordan Eberle, Magnus Paajarvi, Taylor Hall, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Nail Yakupov is very likely to be broken this afternoon--the Oilers are poised to trade their pick at #7 overall.
The Oilers have a unique draft strategy--acquire actual NHL players this afternoon. Expect the unexpected? More like "make sure your seat backs and tray tables are in their full upright position. Also make sure your seat belt is correctly fastened."
And there may be some turbulence.
June 30 2013, 04:51AM
As long as it is for the betterment of the team I will raise my FISTS in the air in support of MacT!!
Good Morning. Go get'em MacT.
I have faith in Mac-T to improve this team. I would be completely speculating as to how much though. I have been happy so far as to what our new GM has done and can only believe that he will continue to garner the pieces as needed. Good luck Mac-T.....go get em!
June 30 2013, 05:27AM
Good morning
It seemed like every second story on tsn last night had Mact's name in it.
LT, i understand the need for bold moves, especially after coming out and saying it so often, but isn't Valeri Nichushkin exactly what the team is looking for.
What do you think that the odds are that everything stays the same to some degree on the top end...
Gagner- Valeri Nichushkin- Yak
Horcoff- (clutterbug/penner/stalberg/pajarvi)- Hemsky
(smithison/lander)- smyth- brown
The reason I ask is because of the third line. I do not see anyone better than Horcoff or Hemsky out there. Yeah the cap hit but couldn't we afford it?
June 30 2013, 05:39AM
Trading our 7th overall...++ for a goalie in the same division with two years to UFA status is grounds for immediate termination.
This is not smart nor is it in any way shape or form a good draft strategy.
Imagine Nichushkin, Monahan or lindholm coming down on a two on one and blowing it by an unnamed goalie in the third year of there ELC cause Schneider is already gone!.
Congratulations MacTavish you just gave Vancouver a stud for two years of service from a goalie who's unproven.......Pass!
Teams like this MacTavish just has to wait out, let those teams panic today.
In the last few years, the only excitement at the draft as an Oiler fan was who would we take at #1. This year, I can't wait to fire up tsn and see what happens with MacT at the helm. If the team had to be remade in either MacT's or Tambellini's image, I vote for MacT!
I really don't like the Schneider rumor, I don't think that he has come close to proving himself and that was demonstrated this year when he couldn't wrestle the reins from Luongo. The position was more like a tandem of shared responsibility. I don't want this blowing up in our face.
June 30 2013, 05:55AM
LT, Lyrics from a great song by an underrated talent in Steve Winwood. Might want to keep his songbook handy if the Oilers happen to pick Nichushkin with "Valeri(e)" or "Arc of a Diver" if they chose to sign Lapierre.
It sounds like you think MacT should adopt the "while you see a chance take it" strategy vs Tambo's ineffective "roll with it" model. As long as the Oilers end up "back in the high life again" by acquiring some of the "finer things" available during the off season, I will be happy.
Well, I turn 40 today! MacT... gimme a gift, ok? And not one of those jack-in-the-box things that fill you with momentary terror, and then gets cast aside with the rest of the junk.
No, something of real and lasting value, please!
So it should make good theater today I take it ? Can MacT. turn into MacT. The Magician -sequel 2 of "Now YOU SEE ME "? How does he do it . or is it just an allusion ? PRESTO -ABRA CADABRA !
June 30 2013, 06:23AM
This is the perfect storm. A lot of teams will be unloading salaried talent and I bet the Silver Fox is figuring out the best way to spend his pennies.
I've been waiting for today since Dec, 2009.
Why do I feel like a crazy person. I may be remembering this wrong but wasn't Clutterbuck the guy Hall destroyed? And hasn't there been chirping and animosity there every time we have played his since then? For some reason I think the room chemistry may be a little hurt by a Clutterbuck move. I distinctly remember seeing video of Clutterbuck telling Hall he was joke on ice. Not exactly the guy I would think to fall in line behind our future captain. Maybe I am thinking of the wrong person. I don't want to do the research but that is just what I am thinking. Am I wrong LT?
prepare to be disappointed and/or bewildered oiler fan
MacT bold? Easy to say. Harder to do. I truly believe that the media love in can come crashing down this summer.
A customer once said to me "all I Hear is what I See".
MacT would have been wise to be the "strong silent" type
I do hope he's able o add: depth in goal, top 4 D, 6 bottom 6 forwards and 1 top 6 forward. Likely? No.
June 30 2013, 06:29AM
SOMETHING is gonna happen, that's exciting, no more Belanger or Smithson deals.
Oil add clutterbuck,luongo and seguin today and hemsky,pajarrvi,ganger are gone along with our first pick.

Hall has made a few enemies already. It's interesting.
Trading with Vancouver is a foolish move. They have less than $50,000 of cap space (cap geek) to sign 6 players. Gillis is desperate late round draft pick and "B of C" prospects only.

This ^
Let Vancouver squirm, until Gillis blurts out ok! "I will give you Schneider for that second and Paajarvi"!
June 30 2013, 06:45AM
In all seriousness, I don't care if Schneider had the best save %.
I still wouldn't deal for a goalie who ripped the Oilers organization and has two years left on his contract.
Does anyone not remember Curtis Joesph leaving for squat after two years.
smell pretty funky.
Yesterday did the trick for me. I expect the Oilers to deal their top 3 picks and acquire several NHL players. They might trade Horcoff and get another pick but for me the draft will be a lot about the trades and where these young men we've followed this season are drafted.
For me, Monahan, Lazar, Nichushkin, Jarry, etc are a fascinating group.
good morning lowetide. i am probably as excited as you are, but i am a realist. years of ineptitude at the management level with this organization only breeds disappointment when one raises their expectations. thank you for all your excellent work.
ok we are all up and waiting,mact get something started and make this a great day for oil fans!!!!!I have a feeling the oilers next season look nothing like the oil of last season!!!!!
June 30 2013, 06:58AM
That lakeside view pic is inspiring me to approach the day with serenity. The truth is that the no one knows what rumors are true, which ones are wildly inaccurate, or what MacT's will be able to accomplish today. I doubt he will overpay for anyone, as he possesses a keen intellect. He is also capable of changing strategies based on changing circumstances, and I imagine some of these rumors come from that. You have to kick a lot of tires to uncover the best deals, especially the well-hidden ones.
What every deal not go through. Cold feet Sunday.
Everyone is hoping for deal crazy Sunday. Curious to find out why nothing has happened?
I'm hoping for the best....

remember dominos?everyone is taking there time getting things in a row,once one tips they all go,im nervous but i think mact makes 3 trades today
Dubbie was not been the goalie of the future for me for a couple years now. That being said Schneider is not the answer.
The trick to winning is not trading for the Lucics and Letangs. The trick is finding the next one. If you remember correctly Lucic was chosen by Boston with a draft pick the Oilers traded away.
After suffering for this long why trade the future for two years?
June 30 2013, 07:35AM
I hope the Oil keep the # 7 pick because I don't think we will be drafting in the top 10 again for a long time. The best opportunity will be teams in cap trouble, It has gone really quiet on the Chris Stewart availability and if one of him, Nathon Horton or my choice David Clarkson could be added that would be enough in the top six. Adding at least one and hopefully two defence men will have to be done by trade and fixing the bottom six will be done by a combination of FA, trades and promotion from OKC. Go for it Mac T.
prepare to be disappointed and/or bewildered oiler fan
This is my sense too. I believe in the art of the possible, not so much miracles, and too many of us are onboard to expect miracles today.
This is understandable due to the ineptitude of the Oilers' hockey ops since Katz purchased the franchise from the Edmonton Investors Group and brought about financial sustainability. The fans are overdue to cheer for a team that competes on a game-by-game basis and makes us proud, not a perennial loser.
The easy part for MacT is to cull the many under-performers and those players that really don't fit into the future of the roster. The difficult part is replacing them with real NHLers that can complement the core and strategically live within the cap. To accomplish this in one short period of time is really impossible. In today's NHL, it will take a transition period of at least two seasons.
We'll all be focused on what MacT does with the 7th overall pick, particularly if an impactful player is still on the board. No pressure MacT, just don't screw up.
June 30 2013, 07:41AM
What Schneider actually said was, "Nobody cares about Edmonton so nobody hates them. It's that simple."
I've seen much the same sentiment, from Oilers fans, in this comments section. Probably because there's some truth to it.

You have to hit and beat other teams for the "hate" to happen. The Oilers have not hit or beat many teams for a long while.
FEAR: The great motivator . You want to stay the way we are now and continue being a repeat bottom dweller , or do you want to go into the brave new world and deal a hand to turn your fortunes ? Face it Oiler fans , Mact. certainly can't do much worse than what we already are . Why hang on to all those personnel that keep us constantly in the basement of league . He couldn't do much more damage even if he gave a lot of them away for nothing .
June 30 2013, 07:48AM
Schneider actually referenced Eager and Hordichuk right before the comment.
June 30 2013, 07:50AM
got a question guys. It seems is if the coyotes are done, so how can they negotiate in good faith on deals (smith, tippett etc). Couldn't they just chose to srcew the franchise in a blaze of glory?
Lowetide, as excited I am about the whealing and dealing, two things to consider:
1. We shouldn't be dissapointed if less is going to happen at the trade front than we are expecting. For weeks now there is talk, but no walk.
2. If there will be some movements, I wouldn't be surprised if there were names/players included that never have been discussed before (no Schneiders, Letangs or Clutterbucks).
Looking forward to an exciting afternoon.
Oil add clutterbuck,luongo and seguin today and hemsky,pajarrvi,ganger are gone along with our first pick.
I must say that I have seriously considered all of these guys, but never together in one breath.
I would not give up the players you listed.
I dont believe Seguin will equal Gagners career numbers or longevity. Since Sam has been surrounded by quality players he has made a significant jump offensively. We waited for this jump to come from Hemsky, but it didnt materialise when the new skill was brought in for him like it did for Gagner. That is telling.
I see why people like Clutterbuck, but he isnt a full buck anymore after Taylor Hall took his fifty-cents out of him last year, we have Hall and he is the superior version of that type of Player. Hall earned that title by being dominant when the chips were down.
MPS is one of our key zone transition players, he has shown Gagner like evolution in an upwards direction, and he is doing so in the Big mans arena, sorry folks but the MPS questions ended last year when he went toe to toe with the Big Boys head on. He did that as requested and didnt become a defensive sieve to do so either, some games he was a dominant force opponents had to adjust their systems to cover, we cant deny him unless we goddam lie.
MPSs upside is still huge and untapped, he has sick hands for a big man and speed to burn and is a defensive minded zone entry player, other teams are salivating because a few Trolls have spent a lot of time online repeating the same anti-MPS and anit-Gagner propoganda, co-incidentally these are two players I identify as being key pieces of the puzzle here. That is not fluke.
On that note, power to mac-T, I await his decisions with 100% support. I just want to make my valuations of these players clear so I can accurately assess Mac-Ts productivity today from solid ground.
Anyone but the Nuge is available today as far as I am concerned, but some good-byes would be harder than others for sure.
Lets rock and roll man.
June 30 2013, 08:24AM
(Bettman walks to the podium}
Welcome to New Jersey and the 2013 National Hockey League Entry Draft. Before we get started, we have 14 trades to announce.
Gary could help salvage this weekend by muttering those words.
The opportunity for unprecedented change has eluded us. Grab us a Lindholm/Nichushkin or Nurse, and come home boys.
Schneider actually referenced Eager and Hordichuk right before the comment.
I'm lost. What do Eager and Hordichuk have to do with hitting and winning? Neither did their jobs and where they ended showed it.
June 30 2013, 08:28AM
Yak and a seventh overall for Schneider if Mac were to make that trade I would completely lose my mind. That would not be a significant upgrade IN GOAL.Would love to see Nurse as a Oiler.With Lowe whispering in Macs ear I am kind of nervous what may happen.SW coming from Nashville would make it a very happy Canada day.One can only dream
June 30 2013, 08:36AM
Oil add clutterbuck,luongo and seguin today and hemsky,pajarrvi,ganger are gone along with our first pick.
I like you sir, I like you a lot. You forgot to mention the Clarkson signing on July fif, but hey, that's okay man.
Had you pegged for a Dos Equis beer drinker all along.
June 30 2013, 08:40AM
Got ya, thanks! But presumably somebody has to 'inheret' these contracts. If there is a dispersal draft, are these honoured? Imagine if not, and edm is dispersed with some of our contracts. And we're not even the worst overpay offenders! Can of legal worms comes to mind.
the future is now ladies. if the oilers actually draft anyone before the third round today i'll be pissed. these draft picks + under performing current players + prospects = need to equal players that are going to get the oilers into the playoffs next year. make it so mac t.
June 30 2013, 08:43AM
I like you sir, I like you a lot. You forgot to mention the Clarkson signing on July fif, but hey, that's okay man.

i would do this in a thrice! Fingers crossed, already on edge of couch, kids kicked outside, laptop next to me!
June 30 2013, 08:44AM
Will be a little disappointed to see Lowe, seated within an earshot of MacTavish at the Oilers table. Doesn't he have other stuff he can be doing, like Presidential duties, serving drinks at the ON draft party at the Pint today?
Yep. I bet Hall Hates playing against Clutterbuck. That's exactly why he should be on our team.
Schneider may have made more saves than Dubnyk, but I would bet that the shot quality on those saves was not the "alone in the slot" or "breakaway" variety nearly as often as Dubnyk. The Oil have been terrible on Defense and Dubnyk still managed to give the team the ability to win. I am not convinced Schneider is an upgrade.
Letang - Nobody on the team should earn more than Hall. That said... he's tempting, but at what cost. Would prefer Yandle.
Cobourn - The guys a rock. Jason Smith with more offence. I cannot believe he's in play, but since he is, get him... please.
If the oilers don't make a pick, but add players like Cobourn, Clutterbuck, and Yandle. I would consider it a good day.
I hate double posts. Katz is there, of course he'll sit next to his buddy.

(For Friday Flashbacks I feature favorite recipes from the past that have been my personal favorites, and this Crunchy Chopped Salad with Sugar Snap Peas, Jicama, Radishes, Tomatoes, and Green Garbanzo Beans has so many of the flavors I love in salads. This tasty salad is Vegan and also fits the bill for Phase One Fridays if you're looking for a tasty and healthy spring salad!)
It's a sign of spring when I start making big crunchy salads to eat for lunch. My lunch salads can include just about anything that's in the fridge or on the counter, and when I come up with a combination that's especially good I'll often make it again the next day and take pictures for the blog. I love crunchy ingredients in salad, so the crunch factor from sugar snap peas, radishes, and jicama gave this salad that extra something that made it a keeper for me. The tomatoes and green garbanzo beans gave the salad some other textures, and I used a barely-spicy cumin-lemon vinaigrette that was perfect with the other flavors.
jicama in salad, but turnip is a good substitute. This was cut into cubes.
Crunchy Chopped Salad with Sugar Snap Peas, Jicama, Radishes, Tomatoes, and Green Garbanzo Beans
(Recipe created by Kalyn for a lunch salad; makes 2 whole-meal salad servings or 4 side-dish salads.)
1 C diagonally sliced sugar snap peas
4-5 large radishes, trimmed, cut in half, then cut in half-moon slices
1 C jicama, cut in cubes (about 1/2 large jicama)
1 C cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1 cup green garbanzo beans, thawed if frozen (other types of beans could be substituted.)
2-3 cups chopped romaine lettuce
Dressing Ingredients:
2 T fresh-squeezed lemon juice
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste (I used Vege-Sal)
3 T extra-virgin olive oil
If using frozen green garbanzo beans, thaw by running hot water on them for a few minutes, then let them drain while you prep other ingredients. (To substitute other canned beans, dump beans into a colander placed in the sink and rinse with cold water until no more foam appears, then let beans drain while you prep other ingredients.)

The Mythos ST SuperTower combines stunning cosmetics with impressive, high-end sonic performance. It features a sleek aluminum cabinet and many of Definitive's most advanced components and technologies. But what really sets the Mythos ST apart from typical speakers is the SuperCube® powered subwoofer built right into the cabinet. It allows this speaker to generate startlingly deep bass, for big home theatre sound. In fact, Home Theatre magazine's Darryl Wilkinson wrote, "You'd have to spend gobs more money to get anything else that offers this combination of performance and beauty. The Mythos STs are an audiophile's speaker wrapped in an interior designer's cabinet that sells for much less than you'd expect to pay for either."
Closeup of the subwoofer.
Closeup of the midrange.
Near the top of the cabinet are two 5-1/4" midranges flanking a 1" dome tweeter, all acoustically isolated in their own sub-enclosure to prevent interference from the bass drivers. Each midrange features Definitive's Balanced Dual Surround System (BDSS) technology, which employs rubber surrounds on both the outer and inner edges of each speaker cone, for more stable, precise motion, resulting in exceptional clarity. The pure aluminum dome tweeter has a special ceramic coating, so you'll hear every subtle sonic detail without the edginess of lesser tweeters.
The lower section of the cabinet holds a 6" x 10" racetrack-shaped woofer reinforced by two bass radiators. This combination creates a total surface area that's actually greater than that of a traditional 15" woofer, but the three-driver approach provides better low-frequency control, speed, and detail. A built-in 300-watt amplifier powers the subwoofer, delivering massive bass that eliminates the need for an external sub. Aside from saving you some floor space, the built-in subwoofer ensures balanced system sound because the bass is already perfectly blended with the mids and the highs. The subwoofer also has an adjustable volume control so you can fine-tune the bass to suit your room or taste.
Each speaker has an aluminum cabinet and a polished granite base.
Definitive took a step away from the traditional look of boxy floor-standing speakers, and designed the Mythos ST's slim, curved cabinet using contemporary design principles. The enclosure is made of black hand-polished aluminum, and rests on a polished granite base to ensure total rigidity and stability. Hooking up the Mythos ST is as simple as running one set of speaker wires from your amplifier or receiver to the speaker.
Build a complete home theatre system using perfectly matched Definitive Technology centre and surround speakers. The Mythos ST pairs well with Definitive's Mythos Ten centre channel and Gem XL surrounds.
Most speakers don't include any. Learn about choosing and installing speaker wire at the Crutchfield Learning Centre.
Shop our selection of speaker wire.
Did you know?
Your new speakers will probably sound better after several weeks of use than they do right out of the box. That's because the material surrounding the woofers will loosen up, allowing the drivers to move more fully. Definitive Technology estimates a break-in period of 24 to 48 hours of playback before the speakers will deliver optimum sound quality. For more information and helpful tips, check out this article from Definitive's website about conditioning your speakers.
