Trading Alex Edler: Who to Target (Part III)

In the final installment of the Alex Edler trade series, we take a look at one more forward who the Canucks could target if they do end up shopping the big Swedish defenseman this summer. Here were the previous posts:
A quick refresher on why Edler's name is mentioned in trade talks:
[Edler's] name is only surfacing in speculation because he seems to be the only core player with great trade value (and the only one that could be realistically traded). You don't move players like Edler for the sake of it – he's a proven top pairing defenseman with a lot of great qualities.
Vancouver probably won't end up dealing Edler (I'd say the chances of him being moved are somewhere between 20 and 30%). But if they want to make some significant changes to the core (and improvements to the offense), he is easily the most valuable asset they have to work with.
Loui Eriksson – LW/RW Dallas Stars
DefendingBigD's Brandon Worley analyzed Loui Eriksson's future in Dallas in this post.
Eriksson is arguably the best player on the team. An incredible two-way forward with top possession ability as well as elite scoring prowess has Eriksson's name on the list of some of the top forwards in the NHL. His humble demeanor and and off the ice, as well as where he plays, has led to Eriksson becoming known as the most underrated player in the NHL.
No argument there. Eriksson wasn't his usually consistent self offensively in 2013, but he is one of the best two-way forwards in hockey. From 2009 until 2012, he registered seasons of 71, 73, and 71 points, respectively. And he is a massive salary bargain - $4.25 million per season until 2016. That's David Booth money! Worley believes the Stars should target a top six center for Eriksson, which doesn't make Vancouver a good fit. Right now, Jamie Benn and Cody Eakin are the two top centers in Dallas. Eakin is a terrific young forward, but he isn't second line material just yet.
I don't see the Canucks moving Ryan Kesler unless the return is ridiculous, and there simply aren't many good centers available right now. However, the Stars could use a top pairing defenseman. Edler would become their best blueliner, and could probably slide in quite nicely on the left side with Stephane Robidas (which would allow rookie Brenden Dillon and Trevor Daley or Alex Goligoski to play on pairing two). Dallas' defense was a weakness in 2013, and the team has been after a true top pairing blueliner since Sergei Zubov retired over a decade ago. Dillon's rookie season was very encouraging, but it isn't fair to place that type of pressure on a second-year guy.
Could Edler be that guy?
And for the Canucks, this would allow them to reunite Eriksson with the Sedin twins - the trio recently dominated the World Championships (on the big ice, mind you). Eriksson is essentially a faster Sedin with a bit less passing ability but a better shot - he's smart, loves to play off the cycle, and he's very creative with the puck. It would also allow the Canucks to play Alex Burrows and Ryan Kesler together on line two. Perhaps with rookie Nicklas Jensen? Vancouver needs to find a way to spread out the scoring on three lines, and this move would accomplish exactly that.
Is he available?
Eriksson has been referred to as untouchable by team owner Tom Gaglardi on more than one occasion. I am of the mindset that there are no untouchables in hockey. If the Stars can find a trade that improves them, they have to think about doing it. And with younger wingers Matt Fraser and Alex Chiasson ready for NHL action, perhaps trading from a position of strength to shore up a weakness makes sense?
And while the turnovers and defensive errors from an up-and-down 2013 season are still fresh in the collective memories of Vancouver fans, Edler is still the defenseman who can do this:
And this:
And this:
And this:
Trading a core player is never an easy decision. But great teams aren't built on easy decisions. Do you think Dean Lombardi knew unequivocally that moving Brayden Schenn and Wayne Simmonds for Mike Richards was going to work out? The Jeff Carter trade may seen like a no-brainer, but Lombardi did gamble when moving Jack Johnson that Slava Voynov was ready to step up.
General managers aim to mitigate risk wherever they can, but when things get stagnant, sometimes risk is the only way to take the next step (or avoid the inevitable collapse). The Canucks don't have a knight in shining armour ready to take over, and their forward group leaves much to be desired as it stands right now. Trading Alex Edler may be the only way to keep the window to win open...

Id rather see us trade Edler for some youth and players who can be the core in the future. Loui Eriksson is good, but its more of the same imo, another complimentary player to play with an aging core.
The line with the Sedins could be "Swedish Fish" ... Just cause the line makes me as happy as the candy does. Seriously after seeing them play at IIHF I've wanted this line. Don't see it happening, but a girl can dream right?
Loui Eriksson would be good but the Canucks could probably snag another piece in addition in a trade for Edler - maybe a 3rd or 4th liner like Fiddler or Tom Wandell.
It would be weird to see the Canucks trade Edler but he just isn't getting it done. I would like to see him clean up these defensive mistakes he is so prone to making. I don't know if we can count on it.
Eriksson is only a complimentary player in the same sense as calling Kesler that. He might not be your top player on the roster, but he's a 1b at worst, just as Kesler could be a solid 1st line center on a number of other teams. If you want to call that complimentary, I'd be happy at the compliment of having them on our team!
June 02 2013, 05:49PM
The only player on the Dallas roster I would trade Edler for would be Jaimie Benn. Call me crazy but if we move a future core player, we want one back!
I'll probably get put on blast for this,but I think we should keep Edler; and move Hamhuis.
Does trading Edler for a winger actually make the Canucks better?
A top 4 of Hammer/Bieksa & Garrison/Tanev doesn't exactly inspire a lot of confidence.
It looks more like robbing Peter to pay Paul.
Considering how difficult it is to find #2 defenseman with #1 defenseman upside, a borderline elite winger doesn't seem like enough.
It would make the Canucks different, but not necessarily better. Maybe worse.
I don't like the idea of trading Edler, but Eriksson is one of the few guys I'd be ok with trading him for. He is a legitimate beast, great possession numbers, smart, skilled, would be amazing with the Sedins...
...and I don't see why Dallas would do it, aside from the stagnation reason listed above.
Jeff angus needs to put away the crack pipe if he thinks edler will fetch eberle or Ryan etc .... let's be honest, a injury-prone defenceman that cant skate backwards who has a lousy contract won't get much ... elder is a turnstile, either make him a winger or be happy if they can jjettison him for some draft picks ...he's taking away valuable developmen time from conauton et al
i really don't understand why people think Edler is a #1 or top pairing D-man. he's not a top pairing in Vancouver, a team that badly needs one and he's a turnstyle. i can't remember the amount of times Edler was been walked around when it's open ice.
i keep remembering Thomas calling the Sedin caddy position the most cushy job in hockey yet Edler is just awful without erhoff

West Coast Forests Celebrate International Migratory Bird Day
'Tis the season for migratory birds to make their journey north. Forests along the Pacific Flyway, which stretches from Alaska to Central and South America, recently celebrated International Migratory Bird Day with educational activities, conservation efforts and birdwatching trips.
Staff from the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest and the Forest Service's International Programs hosted an educational event at Camp Casey in Coupeville, Wash., that attracted 120 people of all ages who participated in interactive activities where they learned about migratory birds. In one activity, attendees took on the role of migratory birds to learn about the difficulties the birds face during migration. Their goal? To safely reach their next stop along the migration route. The first round was easy, no obstacles. The second round, a hunter was introduced and with each ensuing round, migration became more difficult. Habitats started disappearing and predators started increasing, catching larger numbers of birds. Elders, teens and youngsters alike all participated in this lively, competitive game to learn just how hard it is for birds to migrate long distances. Read more »

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
Emery County Commissioner Drew Sitterud appeared in court on Sept. 30 before Judge Douglas Thomas in the Seventh District Court in Castle Dale. Patrick Nolan was present representing the state and Sonny Olsen lawyer for the defendant, Drew Sitterud.
Sonny Olsen spoke first and said there are discrepancies in the presentencing investigation report which he would like to address.
Nolan said there is a procedure to follow if there is a claim of inaccuracies. "It is not appropriate now in this setting to claim discrepancies, they needed to be addressed ahead of time," said Nolan.
Olsen said he had just received the report on Wednesday (Sept. 24) and he was under the impression that he could present the inaccuracies at the sentencing hearing.
Nolan said that is not what he recalled from the conversation, but if Olsen would like to bring up any discrepancies then Ron Wilson, who helped prepare the PSI report was there and would be available to answer to any claimed inaccuracies.
Olson said in the PSI report it claimed that Sitterud had reluctantly entered into his pleas. Olsen said that is not true and the plea bargain statement written by Sitterud had his personal statement which said he had driven an Emery County vehicle to meetings and had been reimbursed as if he had driven his own private vehicle. According to the PSI it said he had falsified mileage reports when in fact he had not done that he just signed a pre filled in post card at the CIB meetings which indicated the use of a private vehicle.
The PSI report indicated that Sitterud has been a commissioner for eight years and should know how mileage reimbursement works. Olsen said however this was a new event for Sitterud. He hadn't dealt with being reimbursed mileage before for driving a county vehicle.
The PSI report stated that several employees have been affected negatively by the events with Sitterud and the working environment of the commission has been affected. Olsen said he would like to know who those employees are and how they were affected and he would like to interview and talk to them.
Olsen said within the PSI report it stated that Sitterud seemed more arrogant than innocent. The PSI report referred to a letter to the taxpayers in Emery County that Sitterud had submitted to the Emery County Progress and the Emery County Review newspapers. Olsen said portions of the letter had been taken out of context and he submitted a full copy of the letter to the taxpayers which had appeared in the papers to Judge Thomas. Judge Thomas took a few minutes to read the letter.
Olsen wondered why the whole letter wasn't included in the report. Olsen stated the writer of the PSI report indicated that Sitterud made a mockery of the plea agreement with that letter to the taxpayers.
Olsen took exception to this part of the PSI stating that the PSI document was compiled to determine restitution and input on the sentencing of the defendant. Olsen contended that Sitterud had pled guilty. He had not intended any wrongdoing and in doing so it was "highly regrettable" on Sitterud's part. Olsen said Sitterud's statements were consistent with the terms of the plea agreement.
The PSI report contends that Sitterud took little responsibility for his actions and blames his wrongdoing on there not being a clear reimbursement policy.
Olsen said he disagrees with the PSI report when it states Sitterud has cost the county money for 22 months worth of investigation. Olsen said he and his client have met with the Attorney General's office whenever they requested they do so. "We did everything we could do, it's not correct he's responsible for a 22 month investigation," said Olsen.
Olsen also said the report referred to Sitterud not making any effort to pay the money back for 10 months. Olsen said Sitterud had tried to pay the money back and discussed the matter with then County Clerk Bruce Funk. Funk then left office and Sitterud approached the new Clerk Brenda Dugmore who instructed him to speak to the County Attorney about the reimbursement. He approached the County Attorney and the County Attorney reportedly said, "It's too late, you're going to jail." Sitterud then decided he would take the matter into his own hands and figured out what he owed and paid that amount to the county in September of 2006.
Judge Thomas then called upon Nolan for his response. Nolan said these types of statements should not have been heard in a sentencing hearing. "Sitterud waived all those rights at the time of pleading guilty. We are here to proceed with sentencing and counsel has been quibbling with the content of the report," said Nolan. Nolan asked Ron Wilson from the Adult Probation and Parole from the Fillmore office to speak to the court. Wilson said all of the information for the PSI report came from the Emery County Sheriff's Office, State Attorney General's Office, County Attorney's Office and from Mr. Sitterud. "That's where all the information came from included in the report. We will stand by the report as an accurate representation," said Wilson.
Wilson indicated he had talked to Mr. Sitterud on Wednesday morning and Mr. Sitterud minimized his involvement, he avoided direct questions. There has been a lengthy investigation and Mr. Sitterud is the cause for all this concern. Wilson was concerned about the minimization of Sitterud's actions as outlined in the letter to the taxpayers that Sitterud had submitted to the newspapers. Wilson said, "I asked him...I believed you knew what you were doing and Mr. Sitterud replied, 'yes, I did.' That's the first time he's wanted to take responsibility for what he's done and I suggest he does that in court today."
Wilson outlined the matrix for sentencing according to the APP guidelines and what they recommend. They recommended a 30 day sentence with work releases. They recommended payment of security fees based on two counts.
"In theft matters we typically look for signs that are criminal in nature. If you blame others, don't admit to guilt; we look for those things as criminal motivation. We recommend the defendant take a class in criminal thinking errors. We recommend he write a letter of apology; we didn't see an actual admission in his letter to the papers," said Wilson.
Judge Thomas stated the state recommended no jail time in the plea agreement. The PSI report made its own recommendations, but Judge Thomas stressed the sentencing is up to him after review of all the court documentation along with the PSI report. The Judge stated the state shouldn't argue for jail time in light of the plea agreement recommendations.
Nolan said the APP is free to make their own recommendations as they choose.
Olsen said he wanted to present evidence. Judge Thomas said what is the factual statement you want to report. Olsen said he accepts the PSI report with his observations.
Judge Thomas said the facts of the case are what is important, not opinion. Olsen wanted to call witnesses to attest to Sitterud's good deeds and character. These letters are also attached to the PSI report. Nolan said these letters were not useful as they do not pertain to the sentencing.
Olsen said they are relevant to sentencing.
Nolan said they are not in a quest for fact finding. Brenda Dugmore is the Clerk/Auditor, Judge Thomas asked her if she had facts that need to come forth as they pertain to sentencing. Dugmore said, "No I don't really have anything to add."
Nolan outlined the recommendations from the state for sentencing. He said when they were in court on Sept. 2 that the defendant pled guilty and stepped up and acknowledged and accepted responsibility, but then a week later, Mr. Sitterud issued a letter to the tax payers where he presented his side of the story. The contents of the letter concerned the Attorney General's office for several reasons. The fact that he says he did nothing criminal flies in the face of what he said in court the week before. Laying blame and saying it was other people's fault is the reason the PSI reported what it does.
Nolan said the taxpayers of Emery County have placed the commissioner in a place of trust and have a right to expect more, when a commissioner drives a county car, he should not be reimbursed for that meeting.
The CIB pays a stipend for meeting attendance which is taxed, but these are separate checks.
If driving a county car, a request for mileage reimbursement is not appropriate. In one case he rode with someone else to the meeting, but he still received a reimbursement and cashed it. Nolan asked all those factors be taken into account along with the PSI report.
Judge Thomas said there is not an argument with the underlying facts of the case. Each count pled guilty to is punishable by one year in the Emery County jail and a fine of $2,500 for each count. The facts indicate on seven occasions, Mr. Sitterud went to various board meetings and took a county vehicle; not his own. On one occasion he rode with someone else and incurred no transportation costs of his own. He submitted a form for mileage reimbursement and those mileage reimbursements went into his bank account. "There is no dispute to those facts," said Judge Thomas.
Judge Thomas said his second observation was the state, being aware of those facts, recommended no jail time be imposed. The plea also said the judge is not bound by that recommendation. The court has the discretion to honor that recommendation or not.
His third observation was after what had occurred had come to court and prior to the time the PSI report was prepared that Mr. Sitterud caused a letter to be published to the tax payers of Emery County. Judge Thomas indicated by writing that letter Sitterud indicated the only wrong he had committed was that he didn't put county issues aside and see who to pay the money back to.
Judge Thomas said he could see why those who prepared the PSI report would see that Sitterud had not accepted culpability for his actions. The publishing of that letter created a new nuance in the case. Judge Thomas said Sitterud is not accepting the knowledge of wrongdoing. That is why the APP recommended 30 days in jail.
Judge Thomas said it is important for the court to try to sentence in an appropriate fashion as cases which are similar. In a normal case, this type of letter would not have been published. Public officials are responsible for serving the people.
Judge Thomas ordered that the defendant be sentenced to one year in the Emery County jail, jail time suspended upon successful completion of the terms of probation. The defendant will be on probation for a period of two years under the supervision of the Seventh District Court. The defendant will serve six days in the Emery County jail beginning forthwith. The defendant will pay a fine of $2,500 due and payable on Oct. 30 of this year. The judge ordered no restitution paid as the defendant had reimbursed Emery County. The judge determined it would make no sense to hold the defendant responsible for reimbursing the state. If Emery County ends up forwarding the money reimbursed them by Sitterud to the state, that is between Emery County and the state to resolve.
The defendant must submit to and pay for DNA testing. The defendant must complete counseling in criminal thinking errors at Mountain View counseling or another appropriate party. The defendant is ordered to write a letter of apology to the citizens of Emery County to appear in the paper. The defendant is to clarify the nature of the events and to apologize for the letter to the taxpayers he submitted which implied no wrongdoing had taken place. The defendant is to appear for a review hearing on Sept. 15, 2009 at 9 a.m.
In talking to County Attorney David Blackwell after the hearing he stated remarks made by Sonny Olsen in the course of the hearing were untrue. Where Olsen had said Blackwell had reportedly told Sitterud it was too late to pay the money back and he was going to jail are untrue. Blackwell said he didn't say that. On July 5, 2006, Blackwell was outside talking to another county employee when Sitterud came up and started asking him about reimbursement policies. Blackwell had told him at that time that anyone driving a county car to meetings should not be reimbursed. CIB policy is that anyone driving to a meeting in a county car is not reimbursed. Mileage reimbursements are not taxed. Meeting attendees do receive a stipend for attendance from a separate check. This stipend is a taxed item.
Commissioner Sitterud was confronted by Commissioner Kofford concerning mileage reimbursements and after that was when Sitterud came to Attorney Blackwell and told him he thought he had kept money he shouldn't have kept. He also wanted to know if he was being investigated. He wondered if he should pay the money back and Attorney Blackwell said that would be a good start. The next day Blackwell met again with Sitterud to let him know that even though Sitterud had plans to pay the money back, the investigation would still continue. Blackwell would not make the decision to prosecute, the investigation would be turned over to the Attorney Generals office to handle as they saw fit. Attorney Blackwell said he has given copies of his conversations with Sitterud to Olsen.

Mr. John Smith
c/o Facility Services
P.O. Box 2033
Niagara University, N.Y. 14109-2033
These packages will be delivered to Facility Services, who will coordinate delivery with Residence Life.
Yes. Although mostly located in the Town of Lewiston, NU is recognized with its own zip code. As you will see below, mail and packages addressed to the university should be directed to "Niagara University, N.Y. 14109."
That may be a bit unusual, but it is a sign that for over 150 years, we have been considered important enough to maintain our own zip code!

Mary Ann Sparks was named Wilson County Interim Director of Schools Monday by unanimous vote.
"I'm glad to be here," Sparks said in the meeting Monday.
Sparks was the Human Resources Supervisor, and has been in the school system since 1986 when she started as a second grade teacher at Mt. Juliet Elementary. She was also an assistant principal at the school.
Sparks said she was proud to be able to be the Interim Director, even if it is just for a short time. She said that every person in the school system cares about providing the best education for the children.
In the meeting, School Board member Larry Tomlinson made a motion that the search for the next Director of Schools starts immediately. By state law, a new Director has to be in place by late June because of the elections in August.
Sparks said after the meeting she did not want to be considered for the permanent position.

The phone call that Kim Forstater received on Valentine's Day 2005 was anything but sweet. She was told that her left breast was cancerous.
What followed were a lumpectomy and partial mastectomy, radiation and a regimen of tamoxifen. The next year, a mammogram showed abnormal cell growth in both of Kim's breasts requiring more surgery, radiation and follow-up mammograms. For three-plus years things seemed OK.
But, by 2010 both breasts again had abnormal cell growth requiring a more extreme course of action: a bilateral mastectomy.
"Either I keep going through the mammos and risk the chance of getting invasive breast cancer or I do this now. And that's where it was at," explained 51-year-old Kim. "So, after seven years of battling, going back and forth with this, that's what we decided."
In March 2011, Kim had both breasts removed. Immediately following her surgery, she underwent breast reconstruction.
Because she had previously had radiation treatments, implants could not be used. Instead, Dr. Christopher Demas, director of Plastic, Reconstructive and Hand Surgery at SIUH, used Kim's stomach tissue to recreate the look of her breasts.
"He said to me, 'I'm going to make them exactly as they were,'" said Kim, who happily reports that she's back to a 36C.
Using microsurgery techniques, Dr. Demas extracted fatty tissue from Kim's abdomen along with skin and blood vessels that supply that tissue and positioned it in the mastectomy sites. Then, the veins and arteries were connected to blood vessels at the sites and Kim's breast skin was folded over the transplanted tissue and sutured. Breast mounds were shaped using the abdominal skin and tissue.
"It looks and feels like a breast because it's nice soft fatty tissue," explained Dr. Demas.
Kim spent several days in intensive care where the blood flow in the newly connected vessels was monitored to make sure there were no clots.
The procedure works somewhat like a tummy tuck in that the fatty tissue removed from Kim's abdomen tightens Kim's midsection. And, since Kim tends to gain weight in her abdomen, the transplanted fatty tissue in her breast will change in size according to any future weight gain or loss that she experiences.
"He did a great job," said Kim, who several months later had her nipples and areolas tattooed by Dr. Demas to complete the look of her breasts. "He's a wonderful, wonderful doctor and surgeon."

Beautiful Bride Shoes
"These were the shoes I wore for my wedding. I loved that the ivory matched my dress perfectly. They looked expensive and chic. They were gorgeous with my dress, but they were difficult to wear all day. They were perfect for pictures and the ceremony, but I had to switch to a lower heeled shoes for dancing at the reception (though, I have pretty flat feet). They were really beautiful and I got a lot of compliments on them all day!"

With four senior starters who saw substantial play a year ago - one of whom is among the best players in the NOW area - the Franklin boys basketball team believes it is poised for a big season.
And after going 13-11 overall and 9-5 in the Southeast Conference a year ago with a junior-dominated team, why should the Sabers be?
"You have your two leading scorers coming back and all that experience and a little bit of depth coming off the bench, yes, (the coaches) have high expectations," second-year Franklin coach Tim Hogan said. "The guys have them too. It's not just the staff. They expect to do well and are very excited, and haven't disappointed to start the season. We beat two pretty good teams."
Those victories came in the NY2LA Sports Classic at Marquette, a 51-45 win over Whitefish Bay on Friday and a 67-62 defeat of Milwaukee Vincent on Saturday.
The Sabers outscored Bay, 12-2, in the fourth quarter to come back and win as senior guard Matt Krueger scored a team-high 19 points. The next night, Krueger upped his tally to 25 and senior center Nick Romanowski had 33 points and 14 rebounds.
Those two are expected to be the Sabers' leading offensive players all season, just as they were a year ago.
Romanowski, at 6-feet-7, had a breakout season with 22.5 points and 11.1 rebounds per game. He was the NOW area regular season scoring champion with five 30-plus-point games, 12 double-doubles and 2.8 blocked shots per game. He was a unanimous NOW All-Suburban selection and is the current NOW active leading career scorer with 754 points.
"He had a tremendous offseason," Hogan said. "He played with his AAU team - he and Matt played together - and (the players) played summer league, fall league, and did their workouts. They did it all and prepared to make a big run this year. That's something you like to see. That motivation, sometimes that's something you can't coach."
Krueger, a 6-4 sharpshooter, averaged 12.3 points per game last fall. He and Romanowski are joined in the starting lineup by senior guard/forward Macon Plewa (7.6 points per game), senior guard Trevor Theissen (4.1) and junior guard Brett Ksobiech (5.7), who also played AAU ball last summer.
Also returning is junior guard Nick Kriesel.
Other players to watch include 6-6 junior forward/center Danny Kingstad and 6-5 freshman forward Chad Kanugh.
Hogan said establishing depth off the bench will be key; only six Sabers scored in their initial two wins.
"When we played in that Kettle Moraine scrimmage and these first couple game, you try to figure out a rotation so the guys have some consistency," Hogan said. "I feel real comfortable with the guys we have this year. Our starters, we'll look to them to do most of the scoring, but the guys off the bench will be contributors."
Franklin is considered one of the top teams in the SEC, along with Racine Case and Kenosha Bradford.
"I would like to think that we are, but if we fly under the radar, I don't mind that either," Hogan said. "When we play those teams, it's going to be intangible things that make the difference. I don't think any team is more talented than another."
Defense has been a consistent strength for the Falcons, and that will not change this season.
"Our defense has always been good," said Whitnall coach Kent Kroupa, who directed the Falcons to a 15-7 mark last season, including 11-6 in the Woodland Conference. "We have a lot to work on for offense and rebounding."
Some of the offense will come from 6-0 junior point guard Stephen Pelkofer, who averaged 8.5 points and 2.8 rebounds last season. "He is a good all-around player," Kroupa said. "He penetrates well, can hit from outside and plays solid defense."
Bryan Nagy, a 6-4 junior post, will provide an inside presence for Whitnall. He averaged seven points and four boards last year.
Pelkofer poured in 18 points, with a trio of 3-point goals, in a 58-45 loss to powerful Milwaukee Hamilton on Friday. Nagy added 13 points for the Falcons, who were taken out of the game by a two-point second quarter.
"We had the one bad quarter," Kroupa said, "but we outscored and outplayed Hamilton in the second half. We did a good job on defense."
Kroupa likes the balance on his roster, with six seniors, six juniors and one sophomore. "We need to incorporate the younger kids in with the seniors," he said, "but I think we can be good."
Oak Creek
First-year coach Mike Jossie, formerly of West Allis Central, will be in charge of righting the Knights' ship in 2010-11 and beyond. And it will be no easy task.
Oak Creek won just 3 of 23 games including losses in 18 of their final 19 contests last winter. The Knights have not had a winning season since going 17-4 in 2005-06 and are just 18-68 since.
Eight seniors are gone from a year ago, including all-conference pick Nick Stout.
The Knights got this season off to a good start with a 41-37 nonconference win at Greenfield on Monday. Newcomer Terrence Garner, a sophomore guard who played for Jossie at Central as a freshman, scored a game-high 19 points. Garner is considered the 24th-best player in his class in the state by wissports.net.
The Panthers struggled offensively last winter under first-year coach Ryan Fiet. They averaged only 41 points per game, the lowest total in the NOW coverage area. Four of their top five scorers from a year ago graduated, leaving senior David Jordan (5.7) as the highest returning scorer.
But Greendale has received a boost from Andrew Brees, a NOW All-Suburban Football Team selection and all-state wide receiver. Brees, who was not on the team a year ago but averaged 5.1 points per game as a sophomore, scored a game-high 25 points in the Panthers' season-opening 70-44 win over visiting Hartford on Saturday.

|In response to Re: gas steam heat
: : We are considering replacing our hot water steam radiator system with hot water baseboard one because my husband thinks the radiators take up too much room. I, however, think the radiators are a superior source of heat. Can anyone enlighten me on the best type of heating? Thanks for any input.
: : Joan
: Cast iron holds the heat longer then copper fin
: Forget what HJ said as many of my commercial and some residential heating jobs we do run the hot water @ 220 + degrees F. which is still HIGHER then Steam temperature even at 2 PSI steam pressure your still under 220 degrees.
: About the idea of placing with a recessed rad its OK if you dont mind losing up to 30% of your heat and have a place for dust mites to breed
: I happen to like free standing cast Iron radiators BUT my second choice would be cast Iron baseboard.
: You can try Beacon/Morris which offers a who lot of choices in design and are a great quality product.
: Call them and tell them Tieger plumbing send you
Steam @ 2 PSI has a temperature LESS then 220 Degrees

Isolated incidents? Or links in a chain of events hurtling towards catastrophe? So begins Assassin, the tour de force thriller that heralds the return of every terrorist's worst nightmare: Alex Hawke.
A shadowy figure known as the Dog is believed to be the ruthless terrorist who is systematically and savagely assassinating American diplomats and their families around the globe. As the deadly toll mounts inexorably, Hawke, along with former NYPD cop and Navy SEAL Stokely Jones, is called upon by the U.S. government to launch a search for the assassin behind the murders.
Hawke, who "makes James Bond look like a "slovenly, dull-witted clockpuncher" (Kirkus Reviews), is soon following a trail that leads back to London in the go-go 90s, when Arab oil money fueled lavish, and sometimes fiendish, lifestyles. Other murky clues point to the Florida Keys, where a vicious killer hides behind the gates of a fabled museum, and to a remote Indonesian island where a madman tinkers with strains of a deadly virus and slyly bides his time.
Hawke must call upon resources deep within himself. He must enter a race against time to stop a cataclysmic attack on America's most populous cities and avenge the inexplicable and horrific crime that has left him devastated.
Take another thrill ride with Alex Hawke.
©2004 Theodore A. Bell; (P)2005 Brilliance Audio, Inc.
"Assassin is the most highly imaginative thriller to come along in a long while. Ted Bell can really, really write." (James Patterson)
"Whether the novel is taken as a grown-up boy's book or a modern thriller, readers will be caught in the whirlwind of action and find themselves having a grand old time." (Publishers Weekly)
"Like Ian Fleming's James Bond novels, this series is a mix of over-the-top thrills and grounded characterizations. The mix is well served by Shea's efforts." (AudioFile)
"made for the movies"
This was my first experience with this writer and narrator. The writing is enthralling and entertaining. The flow feels like one of the great older James Bond movies... Sean Connery of course. The characters are a little clich? but this actually works as positive instead of a negative. There are a few unneeded twists and turns and maybe a few unnecessary characters but the overall strength of the writing makes it all worth while. You will laugh out loud, get mad at the bad guys and cheer for the heroes.
The narrator instantly became one of my favorites. His deft handling of so many different accents is something I'll look forward to every time I listen to him in the future. You will also find that he had an interesting tendency to maintain the characters speaking voice after the quotation marks ended. I think it added to the performance. It created a kind of faux first person perspective. I will be downloading other works by both this writer and narrator. Count on it.
If you enjoyed Vince Flynn and Nelson DeMille... Don't listen to this book. It's not even close to the same level of craft work as those authors. Ted Bell is technically sound. He writes very well. If only the actual plot and characters held your attention for more than 20 seconds.
The story jumps from one only-vaguely-interesting scene to another, rarely with any sort of gratifying payoff. The action scenes, whenever they finally came, were amusing enough. Hardly a complete book by any means: lacking in character, narrative, intrigue, development...
And I'm sorry, but I don't even like the main character. The review mentions that Alex Hawke makes Bond look like a "slovenly, dull-witted clockpuncher". I couldn't disagree more. He's got all the sharp wit of a wet noodle. I found the main character a pedantic, pretentious, pompous pretender.
The only character I actually liked was Stokley Jones.
I will start by giving narrator John Shea kudos - he is the only enjoyable part of this waste of a legacy credit. I will look for more John Shea reading other authors.
Alex Hawke - think Doc Savage without the bronze and excitement. His eclectic "inner circle" is composed of the most banal and stereotypical sidekicks. Hawke appears to be "dear old friends" with every leader and major figure in the free world. Bell kills off Hawke's wife as the book begins but, fear not, the book ends with Hawke shacking up with his old lover, the U.S. Secretary of State!
His yacht is a warship, he defeats sumos bare-handed and he has lots and lots of money. The story is a pile-on of every hackneyed cliche you ever read in an adventure novel. All at a pace to put you to sleep. Nighty-night!
"Unoriginal and Predictable"
Ear candy with a cookie cutter plot. The narrator was very good with multiple character voices but has the distinction of creating THE MOST ANNOYING voice I have ever heard in Dr. Sung. Hawke was a cartoon hero fighting a cartoon villian. There were several factual errors (the US Navy does not fly F-117 fighters, USAF only) but the plot had no suspense for me. Glad it was on sale.
I didnt finish it... some where in part 1 I gave up, which is unusual for me. Truth be told I cant even remember anything of this book. Perhaps I will give it another listen at some time in the future but as of now it was not worth my time nor money.
"Another great listen!"
The Alex Hawke books have become some of my favorites. Another great job by John Shea. If you are a James Bond fan you should really like the series. I wish I could find the first book, "Hawke", but it is only available as unabridged, which would be a waste. "Assassin" is the 2nd book and you get to see characters evolve as you go through Pirate and SPY. They are supposed to be making a movie out of one of these, check out the Ted Bell website. This book is worth the read just for Stokley Jones, but there is so much more. Get this book, you won't be sorry.
"Great book AMAZING narrator!"
This is an exciting listen! Lots of action and intrigue. John Shea is a reader beyond belief! I would have sworn I was listening to multiple readers, since the accents and the difference in characters is amazing! I will listen to anything he reads! Fun listen!
Tired teacher. That is, REtired teacher.
"Not the Greatest"
Three stars is probably a little generous for this book. It should probably be about 2 and a half. I kept asking myself, "Why are you listening to this?" There must be at least two good reasons. 1. It came alphabetically right after a book I had just finished listening to, and I was too lazy to change it, and 2. I was a little bit curious to see if it was any better than the first book I read by Ted Bell. I just kept letting it play, and I was happy to find that this book was written much better than "Hawke" had been. Maybe a large part of that was because of the narrator, John Shea. He is a good narrator and a fabulous story teller. He brought this book to life, which was no easy task.
See, I bought five Ted Bell books, two from audible, and three hard copies. After the first one, which I read, I was sick to my stomach about the other four because I figured they would be as big a waste of time as it had been. That must be the 3rd reason I kept listening to this book. I so wanted it to be worth listening to, so that I could justify buying FIVE BOOKS without knowing if I would even like them.
The story line was all adventure and intrigue, but not much in the way of symbolism, deep meaning, or much of anything beyond the surface story. There was somewhat less swearing in this book, although still way too much for my taste. The actual writing was much better, but it was still full of cliches and stock plot twists. I still can't say that I just really enjoyed the book. I zoned out of chunks of it, but I didn't seem to miss anything crucial. Still, there are some people who would love this book. I totally get that. I say to them, "Wanna buy a couple more???"
"Super villian leads Hawke through a killing spree"
Could call it the classic super villain vs the hero. In the beginning it's intriguing, the plots and action grip you. But the story fizzles and the two appear to be unstoppable and consistently survive the unsurvivable. The story becomes obvious, you know whats gonna happen just not how. It's unfortunate because it really is written well. It just has the classic battle of the two opposing powers and gets a little to drawn out. I got bored and didn't finish it because I knew where it was going and just wanted it to end.
"Predictable and boring."
I'll give another vote to the narrator.
The characters are cliche and one dimensional. If Bell were a student he would be accused of plaguarising Ian Fleming's bond. The story was unbelievable and predictable and at times just made no sense. He gave entirely too much back story to the villain. As an 8 hour book it would have been simply unoriginal. The extra several hours only serves to bring it down from there.

I've been under the assumption that I have a Gerber
valve and put in replacement seats (5/8-20). The previous "plumber" had slightly cross threaded the
cold side and now I have a slow drip. After some searching I just ordered the proper size tap and will
try tuning up the threads.
1) Should I use teflon paste and tape, or pipe dope? and tape, etc... what is the best combo?
2) if this doesn't work How do I really identify the
3) I read in one of the posts about using ceramic valves. Is it as easy as removing the seats and installing the new valves??
By the way... one of the biggest problems us would be plumbers have today is the fact that the good old supply houses are all disappearing... Home Depot doesn't cut it for the good technical answers from the old timers who know what reality is.
Any help appreciated..

Sloane Stephens, the second-ranked American female tennis player, has hired Roger Federer's former coach Paul Annacone on a trial basis.
Annacone split with Federer after 3½ years last month and said at the time he had no specific plans. He has been working for a few hours every day with Stephens in Los Angeles, where they both live, according to Tennis.com, which first reported the news.
Stephens' agent, John Tobias, confirmed that the player would train with Annacone for the offseason but there was no commitment beyond that.
Annacone, 50, helped Federer regain the No. 1 ranking last year and guided him to his last major victory at Wimbledon in 2012. The former top-15 pro oversaw player development at both the USTA and Britain's Lawn Tennis Association. He also previously coached Pete Sampras and Tim Henman.
American Annacone has not worked on a solo basis with any top female player.
Stephens enjoyed a meteoric rise in 2013 based on her strong results at the four Grand Slam tournaments, including a semifinal showing at the Australian Open where she toppled No. 1 Serena Williams.
FTW: McEnroe, 54, nearly beats 17th-ranked pro
The 20-year-old is currently ranked No. 12. She is the youngest player in the top 30.
Stephens had been working with USTA coach David Nainkin for more than a year. Nainkin split coaching duties between Stephens and fellow American Sam Querrey.
Tobias wrote in an email that the arrangement with Nainkin "ran its course like most coach/player situations" and that Stephens was excited to be working with Annacone for the next few weeks.
According to Tennis.com, Stephens also recently hired Mardy Fish's personal fitness trainer, Christian LoCascio.
Stephens begins her 2014 season in late December at the Hopman Cup in Perth and then is scheduled to play her first tournament at Sydney. She then heads to the Australian Open in Melbourne, where she had her breakout tournament a year ago.

Market Fresh Spring Rolls
Chefs Jay Entrikin and Kristin Swaggart
12-15 rice paper circles
Very warm water
1 c. Fresh herbs such as mint and cilantro
2 oz pickled ginger, minced
4 oz carrot, julienne (like a matchstick)
4 oz cucumber, seeds removed, julienne
4 oz red cabbage, thinly sliced
4 oz bean sprouts, ends trimmed
Fill a bowl with the warm water. Make sure it's large enough to submerse the rice paper circles in. One at a time, soak a circle in the water for a few seconds, making sure all surfaces get wet. Gently remove the circle and drip dry over the bowl to remove excess water. Lay the moist circle on a clean dry surface, and start to fill your first spring roll. Take several cilantro and mint leaves and tear them before placing them in the center of the circle. Spread 1 teaspoon of the pickled ginger over the herbs. Next, place 1/2 oz of carrot on top of the herbs and ginger, and continue to add the other vegetables 1/2 oz at a time, stacking the vegetables neatly as you go. Finally, grab the bottom of the circle and pull it up over the vegetable pile. Then fold each side over the middle and roll everything up to the top of the circle. Try to keep the roll tight without pulling too hard or the rice paper will tear. Use a little bit of the warm water to moisten the edge if you need to help it seal.
Lay spring rolls on a platter, or stand them upright in a bowl. Serve with delicious dipping sauces!

Emmanuel Holds 93rd Academic Convocation
Emmanuel College held its Academic Convocation ceremony on September 13th in the Jean Yawkey Center gymnasium. Emmanuel Professor of Philosophy and Director of Values-Based Education Dr. Raymond Devettere delivered the keynote address, discussing the ethical, medical, racial and social issues raised by Rebecca Skloot's The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, this year's reading selection for incoming first-year students.
The book tells the story of Henrietta Lacks, a poor African American farmer from Virginia, whose cancerous cells, known as the immortal line HeLa, became one of the most significant tools in medicine, playing a vital role in developing the polio vaccine, gene mapping, cloning, and in vitro fertilization. Though Henrietta's cells have generated millions of dollars in profit for medical researchers, she remains almost unknown, and her family is still unable to afford healthcare.
Dr. Joyce De Leo, vice president of academic affairs, provided the opening remarks. As a scientist whose research focuses on managing chronic pain, De Leo spoke of the book's impact on her as both a scientist and a person.
"I had worked with HeLa cells, among many human cell lines, and I never imagined where these cells came from. I never imagined that the label HeLa was based on the name of a poor tobacco farmer, Henrietta Lacks. Nor had I considered that these cells were taken without her or her family's knowledge or consent."
"The Immortal life of Henrietta Lacks is not a story that lives in the past, but one that shape our lives and our future," said De Leo. She encouraged students to uphold the moral ideals brought to light in Skloot's book, both in their studies at Emmanuel and as a member of society after graduation. "Actively engage in something that doesn't seem right. Be the one in the group that questions the ethics. Be the critical thinker. Be the leader. Grow not only intellectually, but consider your role as a person in this college, in this amazing city and in the larger community."
De Leo began and ended her talk with a quote from Elie Wiesel, which appropriately serves as the epigraph to the book.
"We must not see any person as an abstraction. Instead, we must see in every person a universe with its own secrets, with its own treasures, with its own sources of anguish, and with some measure of triumph."
In his address, Devettere posed a series of questions to the audience of students, faculty and staff.
"Was it moral, was it right, for the doctors to take those second two biopsies without asking [Henrietta?]" Devettere referred to this and the questions on medical testing and privacy that followed as "settled" questions, all answered with a definite "no."
Devettere continued with a succession of "unsettled" questions regarding compensation for donated cells and our rights to our own cells as personal property. For these answers, he placed the responsibility in the hands of Emmanuel students.
"It would be wrong I think to say that there is no right answer. I'd rather we say there is a right answer. We don't know it yet. Maybe you'll help us find it."
"That's why we stress values-based education at Emmanuel," said Devettere. "We hope our faculty and students will raise the value questions, the moral questions, in their science courses...but also across the curriculum."
"The point of a values based education...is simply to prevent moral blindness, to overcome a lack of moral awareness that can affect all of us and to become sensitive to what the researchers and the scientists in the 50s and 60s-bent on doing good, bent on finding cures, bent on doing great science-never saw. Good people with good intentions often do terrible things. With values-based education we can prevent that from happening in the future."

"I was very dissapointed with these shoes. After waiting and waiting for someone to review them I decided to take a chance and order them online. These shoes were very cute and well made but they were very uncomfortable. I ordered a 7.5 which is my size and as the other reviewer said, they were too snug. Also they are lace ups and I found that even with the shoes tied tight my shoe felt like it was going to come off as I walked. If you buy these shoes I suggest you go up a half size. I myself will pass on these."

The Denizens took their students to Springfield, Illinois earlier this month to visit the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, as well as selected Lincoln historic sites.It gave us a great opportunity to examine the intersection of institutional politics and public communication in the historic work of perhaps the iconic American president. Among the episodes of Lincoln's mythic history that are highlighted in Springfield is the rivalry between Lincoln and Stephen Douglas, the "Little Giant" who bested the "Big Giant" in the 1858 US Senate race but lost to him in the 1860 presidential campaign. The seven 1858 Lincoln-Douglas debates over "popular sovereignty" and the extension of slavery into US territories were an epic political circus at the time, launched Lincoln into the national spotlight, and became the historic archetype for debate as a component of campaign discourse.
Flash-forward fifty-three years, and we observe a pair of provocative phenomena: a candidate for president using debate challenges as a game of political chicken with opponents, and media pundits pondering whether a debate-driven campaign is actually valuable. What's going on?

I like old timers; it's so romantic to drive a pink old timer, in the style of 50's. I'd like to have one. When I lived in Paris, my parents bought an old timer and I enjoyed drivings in that car. People in Paris like old timers, and romantic things, at least, they used to. My parents sold the car many years ago, but I still have pictures. Now we have the new car, but I miss that old timer. In Serbia you can take driving test at 16, but you can drive only if someone elder is next to you, someone who's 18+. I'd like to drive, why not?
sorry I don´t understand
i have driven the car one time and i like very much to learn how to drive it....
i like meclaren ............. in my country you should be 18 years to take driving test a car
It is easy to say that you'd better buy a Tesla or an Evie if you are concerned about nature, pollution and fumes. Presently, electric cars are so expensive that an average owner should drive 15-20 years to get his money back. You can start saving money if you want to buy a Tesla before you retire.
Interesting video

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
Can the world be a gentler kinder place? Sometimes you have to wonder. I really hate to watch the news any more. There are so many murders and horrible atrocities. Wars all around the world. You wonder if you could ever really make a difference in the world, especially in the light of how things seem to be going.
I attended a funeral today for a friend, John Bissell. I knew him from my many years of having kids in schools. He was a custodian at Canyon View Junior High and then at Emery High. I have had several kids play sports and John was always there at all the games. He never failed to tell them good game.
He always talked to me and asked me if I was getting any good pictures. He was always there. Always kind and generous and there to watch the kids perform at athletics and band and chorus concerts. Watching the school kids was his life.
John was always there to help out. I attend every activity I can get to, and most all of what my kids have been involved with and John never seemed to miss anything. Even when he wasn't on duty he was just there to hang out and watch.
I have talked to him many times over the years and he was always a friendly face. This past fall our economic development council sponsored a Meet the Candidate night. John was there to make sure the tables and chairs were set up. When I told him we needed another table for refreshments, he helped me drag one out of Neal's room. He even helped me put red, white and blue decorations all over. I told him he didn't have to stay and listen to these politicians, but he said he wanted to and found a seat and sat through the whole thing so he was there to clean-up when it was finished.
John always seemed to go above and beyond the call of duty or just his job description. I know in recent years, he didn't feel well and you could see that he had slowed down some.
John did make the world a gentler, kinder place. I wonder what our purpose really is here on the earth. My husband came home the other day from a black powder shoot. He told me that a man we knew from a blackpowder club in Salt Lake had died by his own hand. Then my husband said, "He had a lot of money, I wonder why he would do that." I gently reminded him that money has never been or will it ever be the answer to true happiness. Not having money may make things inconvenient, but it can't make you unhappy. You can choose to be happy, even in the most desperate of physical circumstances.
My son has sent me several photos from the Fiji Islands, these people don't have a lot of material possessions; but they all seem very happy. They have big smiles on their faces and seem geniunely happy.
What can we do to be happy ourselves and spread happiness. Have you noticed that often people won't speak unless spoken to. I do this experiment in Walmart where I smile and say hello to everyone I see in the store whether I know them or not. Most of the time they probably think I am nuts, and they are right, but it's great fun to see who will talk back and most people will. One guy asked if I could help him find something in the store and yes, I did know where the canned milk was.
It seems like people are more happy during the Christmas season and it's easier to feel the love. But, here we are the middle of January, what can we do to keep that spirit going. Can we share a smile? Can we invite someone to dinner? Can we say hello to strangers? Can we let someone into traffic? Can we drive without road rage? Maybe we can't do huge things. Maybe we can't stop wars. But, we can start chains of kindnesses, just small things can lead to bigger things. Going to that funeral today reminded me that man can be better, he can do better and be kinder. My heart was sore to lose a friend, but I am glad I was able to know this man. He has helped me to become a better person.
John was the kind of guy who was probably taken for granted. Probably not that many people noticed him, or paid much attention and maybe they didn't have a kind word to say to him. But, that is their loss. Maybe we should spend more time seeking out those people who are in need, those people who could use a kind word. There is so much we can do to help the world become a better place.
John died rather suddenly. There wasn't much chance for good-byes. This made me realize too, that each day is a gift and shouldn't be taken for granted. The next time you see someone might be the last time. So make everything count. Don't let things slide by until tomorrow that you could do today. Pick up that phone and call someone you haven't talked to in awhile. Send that letter to your lonely aunt. Just do something to brighten someone else's day. Cheering someone up and doing service is a great reward. We gain far more than we give when we seek to help others.
