The undefeated Toronto Maple Leafs (on and on it goes I hope) host the New York Islanders who have made their own strong start. The Islanders entered the season with a lot of hope after breakout years from Josh Bailey and Matt Moulson as well as John Tavares' sophomore year. A couple of major injuries struck during training camp to take off a bit of the gloss.
The Islanders' start has been powered in large part by Dwayne Roloson's .929 and Josh Bailey's seven points in five games. Their last outing was a 5-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche behind a goal and an assist for Bailey. Coach Scott Gordon had a great comment about Bailey's development after the game:
You know what? And I said this before the game – You just can't, unless you're around him and saw what we had to go through (his) first year, as far as making the decision to keep him here. We knew that if he stayed here, we could get a lot of the bad things out of his game and make the process quicker for him. If we had sent him back to Junior, he would have gotten a bunch of points, probably would've won the Memorial Cup with the team that won it. (He) Would've gone to World Juniors, but at the end of the day, right now, he could be the player we saw last year instead of being the player he is now. That's two summers of quality off-ice training, it's the understanding of after he makes a play, he's got somewhere to go. He's just so much stronger on the puck now that things are happening more for him because of the fact that he's just older. And had he played another year against kids, it's not going to help him as far as speeding up the process of being NHL-ready.
This thought process applies to Luke Schenn. As Brett Lebda slots into the line-up tonight the focus is on the strength of Toronto's top four. Schenn leads the Leafs in even-strength ice-time, hits, and plus/minus. He's doing so against soft competition thus far but after a sophomore campaign that was marked by its rough start. The tendonitis in his knee and rumoured vision problems have given way to a player that is much more confident with the puck and that continues to develop his shot.
The Leafs' hot start has already started our provincial cousin's Napoleonic Complex. While Eric Francis of the Calgary Sun, a former die-hard Leafs fan, chided the local media for writing positive stories aobut an undefeated team on Monday, it was the Ottawa Citizen's Mark Sutcliffe who wrote a post better suited to a blog than someone who will undoubtedly rail against bloggers' professionalism. I would remind them that Leafs fans might be excited about this team because on this date last year the Leafs were 0-6-1 with 14 GF and 32 GA. It took them 21 games to win four last year.
So what are the chances that the Leafs can push their record to 5-0-0? Well, the Islanders have been a regular victim of the Maple Leafs at home since the lockout. During that period the Buds have racked up a 7-1-2 with 43 GF and 29 GA. If the Leafs can win tonight they'll have as many wins as they did on November 25th and they'll continue to bank points for the inevitable January/February dry patch. Or maybe this time they won't hit it. Either way, it's fun right now to be a Leafs fan again.
It takes a seriously smart person to pull out stats like those.
Are you single? Are you horny?
I think tonights game is going to come down to how many penalties are taken... and how well the veteran tendies do against the young guns.
I know I'm making obvious statements, but both of these teams look decent on the special teams, but I see another Leafs win in the horizon. I haven't gotten tired of saying "The Undefeated Maple Leafs" yet.
I googled horny and this came up. EVERY ROAD LEADS HERE. LOL
5 in a row starts tonight!
Tonight's game will definitely be a test for the Leafs. They've done a great job drawing penalties but this NYI PP is rolling right now.
It also gives Tavares an easy chance at creating offence which needs to be avoided.
Well played sir, well played. I'm sorry to the Leafs Nation that my native Red Wings didn't resign Brett Lebda... but we grew tired of him. Good game, and the Leafs got to walk away with a charity point.

When partaking in fattening refreshment, do you prefer sweet or salty foods?
Either is fine
When partaking in fattening refreshment, do you prefer sweet or salty foods?
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
I'm all about the salty. I heard that it may have to do with dehydration. Anybody know?
I hate salt. I'm more of a malic, citric, and tartaric acid type of guy.
Oh darn. Maybe I should have included "sour" too.
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
I'm currently lapping up salty.
Salty tears of boredom.
Because of how boring this poll is.

Fuck it, I voted anyway.
Whiskey Sour
2 oz blended whiskey
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 tsp powdered sugar
1 cherry
1/2 slice lemon
Shake blended whiskey, juice of lemon, and powdered sugar with ice and strain into a whiskey sour glass. Decorate with the half-slice of lemon, top with the cherry, and serve.
I didn't realize there were so many people who preferred salty. My entire family loves sweets (my family with Jacob and my parents and siblings).
the busy bee has no time for sorrow.
I'm usually all about sweets, but recently I can't get enough salt. I have started to eat seasoned sheets of nori, plain, right out of the package, as a snack.
Sweetz if I'm high and its between 9pm and 2am (I bought a huge fucking waffle cone the other night at rite aid at 130am while everyone else bought booze)
Otherwise gimme something salty dammit.

I voted either. Bag of chips or chocolate chip cookies.
We're here to play some Mississippi Delta Blues. We're in a horrible depression, and I gotta admit - we're starting to like it.
I have a huge problem with both and I prefer them together. Like chocolate covered pretzels! I put extra salt on everrryyythinggg i eat. My sister does too. Someone told us that women tend to taste salt less then men? I don't know if thats true? I know it has to do with hormone levels. You taste it less when you are a teenager and then as you get older and have gone through menopause you are more sensitive to it... but I'm not a doctor so I could just be talking out of my ass right now.

|In response to Re: Rotten Egg Smell Hot Water
: I recently found your site through About.com on the subject stinky hot water. Found a FAQ about same suggesting the anode tube possibly the problem especially if it is magnisium. I wasn't sure what I had so I ordered the replacement tube from sears as this is a sears water heater only 7 months old. I removed and replaced the tube and low and behold two weeks gone by and the stink is back. Today I dumped in 1 quart of bleach into tank through house filter after draining tank and letting fill again. This is what I had done before replacing the anode tube but it only lasted a week before it had to be done again. I live in a rural area of south central Kansas with well water. I read somewhere about an aluminum anode rod and it is supposed to be better than the mag tube. Is this correct? If this is correct, where can I purchase this tube as none of the major plumbing supply places used by contractors have this info or aren't willing to give it up in the Wichita area. They all recommend having a Plumber come out to check first. I'm not a certified plumber but am very mechanicaly sufficient. Itb only took 40 minutes to drain and replace the last tube. This is a 40 gallon/Power Miser 6/48" High/ Model # 153.316754. Can you suggest anything short of replacing heater and making sure it has aliminum tube. Thanks Bob

POST-GAME: #SpoilTheOil
Vintage Flame
April 14 2013 02:50AM
Today started off much the same as any day when it's the Battle of Alberta. A conversation with a few of my friends that just happen to be Oilers fans (What can I say, I'm a charitable guy). The conversation involved much of the same banter that inevitably comes when the Calgary Flames and the Edmonton Oilers square off.
What really stuck in mind this time was when it was made pefectly clear to me that, "After that 8-2 beatdown, Hell would freeze over before the Flames were going to win this game tonight." I didn't really know if I should get too in depth on this one, after all, Calgary was dressing six, yes SIX, AHL minor leaguers tonight, and the Oil was bringing the full measure of the "draft pack".
Well later that day the snow began to fall here in Cowtown; and it kept falling. Could it be? Could Hell actually be freezing over? Let's see how it played out...
The Rundown
Well before Oilers fans could settle into their lazyboy recliners, with their Red Bull and Pork Rinds, they were down 1-0. TJ Brodie has been one of the few shining stars of the Flames this season; 26 seconds into this one, he would show us again why.
As the Oil tried to clear the zone, Brodie would jump in and beat the puck to the blueline. Keeping the play alive, he would make his way to the high slot before dishing the pass to Sven Baertschi. Sven would make the cross crease pass to a waiting Mikael Backlund, who would waste no time putting the puck over Re-Habby's shoulder, while Nik was still trying to remember where he stashed his wineskin.
The celebration would be short lived as Ryan Jones would steal the puck behind the Flames net. He would then find an unmarked Lennert Petrell in front of Joey MacDonald. The unmarked Petrell would get the Oilers first mark on the scoreboard and this one was back on equal terms
Shortly after, the Oilers thought they had taken the lead on the heels of "Yak City". The only problem is that someone should have told Yakupov that you're not supposed to or are allowed to kick the puck into the net. The review went to Toronto and they agreed, no goal. However, reports during the intermission were that Toronto FC were waiting for the end of the Oilers season so that they could sign Nail for the summer. They would only have to wait about 40 more minutes.
Calgary out-shot Edmonton 15-11 on the strength of three power-play opportunities. The Flames haven't much to brag about this season but their PP has been solid; hanging around the top-10 of the NHL all season. The Oilers late parade to the penalty box had the potential to come back and bite them.
Early in the second TJ Brodie would pick right back up what he started in the first. Starting the Flames PP rush, he would spring Tim Jackman up the left side. Jackman going hard to the net, wouldn't score, but a pinching Dennis Wideman would be Johnny-on-the-spot to jam home the rebound. Unlike Yakupov, he would use his stick, so the goal would stand and the Flames were back on top.
Your Calgary Flames wouldn't look back after that. It was time for the kids to have some fun.
Still just five minutes into the middle frame, Dennis Wideman would recognize an ill-timed line change for the Oilers. He would throw the puck up the boards to a waiting Lee Stempniak, who got just enough of the puck to tip it into Edmonton's zone. Ryan Smyth would be first back into the play and would do his best impression of a helicopter do its impression of a Nail Yakupov celly.
By the time Smytty spun his way out of the play, Sven Baertschi would pick up the puck and snap it passed a soon to be passed out Khabibulin. Though Sven's first of the year was unassisted, it was all started by the Flames picking up early on the Oilers seemingly cascading errors.
Shots were even in the second, but the Flames put up two on the board and were in full control of the game.
By the time the third got under way, there was one team that was just paying out the motions; and it wasn't the southern team. A loss for the Oil dropped their playoff chances from 2.3% to 0.3%. If it wasn't fun enough for Flames fans watching what turned out to be a Svensational game, it was time to give this win...
That's was the kids first of his NHL career and it was a beauty way to score it. He may not score a lot of those, but what a way to follow up his first NHL assist.
Why the Flames won...
There may not be much left to play for this season, other than the draft pick, but going forward, the Flames need to know what they have coming up in the system. Plain and simple, that's why these kids are up here; well that a whack load of injuries to their regulars.
That being said, the standing mean nothing in a game like this. The Oil are your provincial rivals and you just can't lose to them. Tonight was redemption for the last time these two met, and it had to have a different outcome.
That was the ending to this story that was the 2013 Battle of Alberta, it was up to the players to write the final chapter to make it all make sense.
It may not have had quite the same scoring quantity, but the quality was the sweeter for the fans and for your Calgary Flames. The goals from Baertschi and from Reinhart will be of far more importance to management than if they had dropped an eight ball on the Oilers.
Why did the Flames win? Because six kids from the Abbotsford Heat are expected to make a difference for this club in the years to come, while the Oil's beloved "Draft Pack" are firmly entrenched in what the Oilers are all about , which after this game, adds up to just a whole lot of.... Nothin.
Because the Flames and Oilers went head-to-head with their back-ups and Calgary's played like he didn't want to miss out on what this team was going to be about next year; while Re-Habby played liked he didn't want to miss out on last call.
Red Warrior
There are so many possible choices to go with tonight.
Do we go with TJ Brodie, who started it all off tonight with key plays to give the Flames the lead on two ocassions? Maybe Sven Baertschi, who played 17 minutes and registered his first two point game with a goal and a helper?
What about Max Reinhart? The fact that his first of his career was the one that rubbed salt in the wound that was the Oilers playoff chances bleeding out like a Kosher ritual; that has to be good for his first Warrior honours, right?
Joey MacDonald perhaps, in one game, erased the #MacBackup tag, and is now possibly in the running as #MacStarter. Time and time again in this game foiling the Oil, sucking the life out of Edmonton's game and all their fans that were forced to watch the debacle unfold before their very eyes.
Nay.. Tonight we'll just give it to the whole team. In one of the most complete games they've played this year, it was a night that meant nothing to the rest of the NHL, but everything to two cities and their fans that love to hate each other.
Sum It Up
I can't say I'll be disappointed if the Flames lose every game from here on out; they played well tonight and they did it with an AHL lineup against Shelbyvill and all it's hopefuls.
The Oilers are obviously taking the cliche, "Hope springs eternal", a little too literal and as a Flames fan, I (as are the rest of you most likely) couldn't be happier.
It's amazing how a game like this can wipe away the bad memories of something like losing thirteen straight on the road. Hell, now they've won two in a row... #GoingForIt??
It's been fun to see the kids come up and not just play, but play well. From Horak, to Reinhart and Baertschi, even Carson, I don't have anything negative to say about the way they have played as a group, and as a team.
... And then there's this!
Wanye, Wanye, Wanye, you really asked for it!
What got into you? Surely you must have realized early in the season that the Oilers' roster was as full of holes as Swiss cheese? That the Flames have had the Oilers' number almost for ever. And I say this as a long time Oilers' fan.
What is so hurtful is that the Calgary rebuild that started 10 days ago is now ahead of the Oilers' rebuild that started five seasons ago. Jay Feaster will now smile and not worry about having to wander aimlessly in the desert as some other team that we know will continue to do.
Orchestra, cue the music...Turn out the lights, the party is over.
Things will continue to get more interesting for fans, as it seems they are going to be treated to yet another new face.
With St.Cloud being eliminated from the semi-finals of the Frozen Four, Newly aquired, and signed, Ben Hanowski is making his way to Calgary and from all reports, it looks like they are going to give the kid a chance to play.
I think that's a pretty exciting thing, and so I'm looking forward to that. No word on when he officially gets into the lineup, but I have to think Feaster and Hartley won't wait long, as they will want to parlay some of that intensity he'll have from the NCAA tournament and see what he can bring to the big stage.
Maybe he gets to make his debut in front of all of us, as your Calgary Flames take on the Minnesota Wild Monday at the Dome. Gametime is 7:00 pm. Catch it live on SNET-W or the Fan 960.
8-2 > 4-1 , and 5 cups are more than 1 cup. enjoy your 5 years rebuilding!!!
That right there, is the Simmerism of trash talk.
Nice job, Billy Bob.
In case you are interested tsn2 is showing the NCAA championship game tomorrow night 5:00 pm I think.

you can come here cocky as hell and spew venom all you want because you know that you have the support/back up of the mods.
Your perspective as an outsider on the issues with the Flames management has value! HOW? Just because your Oilers have been basement dwelling for 4 years, and they still are for the 5th, and that gives your opinion some credibility? I don't think so!
You can write all you want but I will continue to disagree with you and your ways.
Rex Are you the infamous Wanye?
Rex got haters! Haha.
Rex is a lot more tolerable than most Oiler fans (cough Quintana cough). I don't agree with everything he says but that's ok. If everyone agreed on everything the Nation network would be very boring.
Also, I must say I was disappointed with the length of Rex's response. I was hoping for a whole novel. Pick up your game, Rex! :)
I think i finally get it.I've been a little slow in my thinking. Rex and Wanyne are one and the same.Not sure i get the anonymous handles,but whatever ,they post as cartoon character's.They do add colour,and lighten things up.
April 14 2013, 09:39PM
8-2 > 4-1 , and 5 cups are more than 1 cup. enjoy your 5 years rebuilding!!!
You stayed up all night putting together this bit of brilliance no doubt.
Your hurting right now because your boy's just got slapped around again and you just can't take it anymore. Poor thing.
you can come here cocky as hell and spew venom all you want because you know that you have the support/back up of the mods.

You can write all you want but I will continue to disagree with you and your ways.
Venom? What venom? The only one spewing venom is you (and Quintana).
Rex gains credibility (if that is even the right word in this context) because he is not a Flames fan. He is not prone to a Flames-centric bias, and perhaps keeps the rest of our expectations a little closer to the earth. Does his Oilers bias show sometimes? Of course it does! I would be extremely suspicious if it didn't, especially considering that the Oilers appear to be on the upswing a little bit.
Can you honestly say you've never expressed a Flames-centric opinion that bordered on the ridiculous? I sincerely doubt it. I don't always agree with what Rex says either, but I recognize that his 3rd party opinion does, in fact, have value.
Rex is the furthest thing from a troll.
If I had to pick any Oilers fans to come a comment as frequently as Rex does, it would be a very short list, but he'd be on it.
I don't always agree with what he says, but then again no one agrees with me all the time either.
I'm not sure why we are spewing so much vitriol towards Rex though.
I'd hate to think that I wasted all this fine material on an Oilers fan (Sorry Rex), rather than aiming it at the team or it's players.
Rex may not be a troll,but i'am pretty sure Wanyne is,if in fact they are one and the same. As far as vitriol being spewed,not sure why it would'nt be directed at Rex/Wanye/cartoon man.
You writer's created this scenario,and appear to be trying to deflect the response on "sensitive" fans.
Are Rex Libris and Wanyne one?
April 15 2013, 12:40AM
I have no problem with Rex other than his article about Yan Danis. That was ridiculous.
You enjoy it too bud:)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 15 2013, 08:16AM
In 2008 the Oilers had a "kid line" that consisted of Andrew Cogliano, Sam Gagner and Robert Nilsson. These three players showed very well down the stretch that season and up here in Edmonton thought we had something special brewing. Unfortunately, that lines success ended with that season and in 2009 the Oilers went 27-47-8.
Enjoy the win, your players earned it no doubt. But I would be cautious with all the basement dwelling jokes given the current set of circumstances. Hopefully, for your sake, your management isnt as inept as ours. Actually, hopefully they are.
I am not Wanye. Never met him. Sorry to ruin the Clark Kent/Superman dual identity storyline.
There was an interview with Jermaine Franklin the other day on 1260 in which Franklin mentioned that the emotions in Calgary were running very high, from what he could see.
This has been a rough year for the Flames. Old guards failing, iconic members leaving town, frustration over some management decisions and actions, and a humbling record. I may not like the Flames, but I'll always have sympathy for fans who have to live through the tough times.
If I haven't always been as respectful of that this year, then I apologize. But if you want someone to blow sunshine up your backside and tell you that everything is going to get better from here on out, well, probably best to skip past anything I write.
When I comment on the Flames I usually try to take my Oilers' fan hat off. It may not always work, but I am aware of the bias and at least try and correct for it. My opinions are harshly critical of the Flames management right now and it has nothing to do with where the team plays. It has to do with their decisions and actions. They could be working for Florida and I would have the same opinion. If I recall correctly I did actually put up an article partially defending Feaster's trade of Iginla and Bouwmeester, at a time when the majority of the fanbase would have hung him from a lamp post.
BTW, why is this thread all about me? Didn't the Flames actually beat the Oilers the other day? Shouldn't the discussion be about the statistical merit of that victory and what good things came about from that win?
I have no problem with Rex other than his article about Yan Danis. That was ridiculous.
The question is, would Danis have been a worse option than Joey MacDonald at this point?
It also would have been a direct swipe at the Oilers when they are relying on an aging, and injury-prone, backup.
That being said, I have no qualms with your opinion on it. I know others felt it was a bad idea as well.
Rex got haters! Haha.
Rex is a lot more tolerable than most Oiler fans (cough Quintana cough). I don't agree with everything he says but that's ok. If everyone agreed on everything the Nation network would be very boring.

~Sorry to disappoint, Schevvy. It gets hard to write with all these Cup rings on your fingers.~
There everyone. That was a troll post and the sort of thing I specifically avoid.
And please note the sarcasm tildes before and after.
So schev, cheering for the Hitmen or the Brossoit-led Oil Kings? Divided loyalties.
April 15 2013, 10:45AM
Rex and Wayne are definitely different people. While both have the stink of week-old unwashed loins and armpits and have impressive flowing mullets, Rex has a gigantic bald spot above his.

FARO wins Defense Manufacturing Excellence Award
FARO, a provider of 3-D measurement and imaging technology, has won the Defense Manufacturing Excellence Award from the National Center for Advanced Technologies (NCAT).
The National Center for Defense Manufacturing and Machining (NCDMM) assembled a team to improve manufacturing methods for Naval submarine tapers and carrier propulsion drive shafts.
The team consisted of the NCDMM, the Applied Research Laboratory of Penn State University, and FARO. Their solution included developing an advanced measurement system that reduced the in-process and final inspection stages for the shafts. FARO adapted the technology and software for the solution, which employed a FARO Laser Tracker that accurately mapped the entire surface of each taper while the shaft remained on the machine tool.
The solution reportedly reduced inspection time from 72 hours to 24 hours for a 66 percent reduction over the previous method and easily transitioned to multiple shafts and shipyards. The project resulted in more consistent inspection processes, longer shaft life, elimination of costly gauge masters, and increased flexibility to accommodate design changes.

Bea Gurler was nine years old when her father George moved his family into the house in 1893. Her cousins, the children of her father's brother Henry, had been living since 1888 in the Ellwood Mansion. Everyone said it was magnificent. Bea's parents George and Zillah, evidently shared a taste in homes that favored the elegance of simplicity. It was the unimposing yet dignified structure on Pine Street–where the back door was always open. George and Henry Gurler were both prominent businessmen, and joint owners of a number of dairies. They quickly became world-famous and respected by many dairy farmers. Bea eventually made it a goal of hers to renovate The Gurler House to be the home that she once new and loved. The Gurler House hosts an annual Folk Music Festival every summer, where people are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and blankets to enjoy the music. While you are at The Gurler House, make sure to take a walk through their beautiful garden.

Milan Township One Room School House
The Milan Township District #83 Schoolhouse served as a center for learning from the turn of the century until 1942. In 1942, it was closed and left to deteriorate. However, the schoolhouse was given a new lease on life when it was donated to the Blackwell History of Education Museum in 1996 and then rebuilt on the campus of Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, IL. Since 1999, the Milan Schoolhouse has been available to teachers at elementary and middle schools for re-enactment of a typical day in a one-room schoolhouse, professors at NIU and other institutions, and teachers at high schools for classes, other events, and families and organizations for various activities. We wish to thank Dr. Eui-Kyung Shin, assistant professor in the Department of Teaching and Learning, for her guidance of Rebecca Edwards in the development of this curriculum.A Blackwell Museum staff member has created lesson plans for students in 1st through 8th grade that allow them to experience a school day in the early 1900s, depending on the teacher's preference. The one room school is currently unavailable for visits, but we hope to have it open again in the Spring of 2014. If you have any questions or comments, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

A Cairo court says the Muslim Brotherhood is an outlawed group.
CAIRO — Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood was dealt another blow as a panel of judges on Monday recommended that the group's party be dissolved. Meanwhile, violence continued to grip the country, leaving nine dead.
The recommendation, which will be delivered to a Cairo court, said the party is an outlawed group, according to Al-Ahram newspaper. The Brotherhood formed its political wing after the uprising against Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak in 2011 and the group swept presidential and parliamentary elections.
Two weeks ago, an Egyptian court banned the Brotherhood and its activities and ordered its assets seized.
The judges' recommendation came amid a string of violence that hit three locations across the country a day after more than 50 people died in clashes between Egyptian security forces and supporters of ousted president Mohammed Morsi.
A massive explosion struck a security headquarters in a southern Sinai town near popular tourist resorts, killing three policemen and wounding dozens of others Monday morning, security officials told the Associated Press.
The attack – possibly a car bomb – was unusual for the south Sinai Peninsula, which has remained relatively undisturbed despite frequent assaults by militants on security outposts in the northern region.
Gunmen killed six Egyptian soldiers Monday while they were sitting in a car at a checkpoint near the Suez Canal, security officials said.
In a third assault, two rocket-propelled grenades hit a state-owned satellite station in southern Cairo. The dawn attack on the station in the leafy suburb of Maadi in Cairo caused only minor damage to one of the giant satellite dishes in the complex. But its significance was far wider, in part because it struck at the heart of the nation's telecommunications center, making it the most serious attack in the capital since last month's assassination attempt against the country's interior minister outside his home in eastern Cairo.
The violence underscores mounting security problems plaguing Egypt since the uprising against Mubarak, who ruled Egypt for three decades. For months, militants have waged a low-level insurgency in the Sinai Peninsula, where residents say they have seen an increase in the flow of arms across porous borders from post-revolution Libya.
In early September, Egypt's minister of Interior Mohamed Ibrahim, who oversees the police, survived an assassination attempt in Cairo when a car bomb struck his convoy, injuring more than 20 people.
Analysts had anticipated assaults on authorities would increase in frequency as Islamists face increasing repression in the aftermath of a July 3 coup that ousted Morsi, Egypt's first freely elected president.
"Definitely the violence will continue because it is stirred up by so many different elements, not one entity," said Ziad Akl, a senior researcher at the Al Ahram Center for Political and Strategic Studies in Cairo. "We really don't know who we're fighting."
On Sunday, protesters aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood against the nation's leadership clashed with security forces. Demonstrators had tried to march toward Tahrir Square – the heart of unrest since Mubarak's ouster.
Inside the square, thousands of their political opponents had already gathered to honor the military and celebrate the 40th anniversary of the 1973 Egyptian military attack on Israel.
"People are repressed and crushed for no reason," said Walid Alam, an Egyptian tour guide, who marched Sunday with a crowd toward the square when he was pushed back by sounds of gunfire and clouds of tear gas. "There is a lot of brutality against the people."
Muslim Brotherhood-led demonstrations against Egypt's new leaders have persisted over the past three months despite a broadened government crackdown on the group. Khaled Matei, a spokesman for the Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party, said protests across Cairo are planned for Tuesday and Friday.
"We want to tell all the people around the world that we don't agree with this government," he said, noting that he expects more clashes.

Test it first
"As I expected from J-41, this shoe looks classy and is comfortable. However, the strap location and movement don't work for my feet. The criss-cross part on the top of the foot shifts too much when I walk in them. I think other people might really like this style, but I had to send them back. Also, I initially ordered in my regular size, but sent those back for a half-size smaller. However, that's consistent across all J-41 shoes for me."

|In response to Re: hissing steam radiators
: : Reply:
: : The rust colored water is probably just what got stirred up while you were refilling the boiler after the piping replacement.
: : The hissing noises could have been wet steam that was brought up the the rads when the boiler water level was slightly high.
: Ok, thanks. Is there any way to get this wetness out of the system and stop the hissing?
: : The inoperable rad could have a defective air vent, shut off valve or the piping could have sagged in the floor and is holding water preventing the steam from entering the rad.
: That's great to know, I'm so glad I didn't take it apart to check, or worse yet, have it replaced.
: I'm unsure as to how this type of heat actually works. When steam comes up into the radiator, does the air in the radiator escape through the air vent? Maybe that's the hissing I'm hearing. If that's how it works, why doesn't steam come out of this vent? Or am I wrong on this? Does the radiator vent each time it comes on, or is the vent only for overload/pressure safety?
: Thanks again

Not what expected
"This shoe is not what I really expected it to be. First, the color in the picture is brighter and lighter compared to the cream color that it actually is.Second, they are not very comfortable. They are kind of heavy and within 30 min of wearing them the ball of my feet were hurting - not the kind of shoes in which to do a lot of walking. Also, my toes kept slipping forward. Granted, these problems can, hopefully, be fixed with ball-of-foot cushions.Fit - a little narrow, but runs true to sizeOther than that, I like the style and got them for a steal - $30 - so I will be keeping them."

A large winter storm swept through the southeastern United States in January 2014, dropping snow and ice on an area unaccustomed to dealing with winter weather.
While clouds still covered most of the area affected by the storm when the Terra satellite passed over on January 29, 2014, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board captured this view of snow on the ground in parts of northern Georgia, northern South Carolina, eastern Tennessee, and western North Carolina. According to the National Weather Service, the storm dropped up to 9 inches (23 centimeters) of snow in parts of North Carolina, 4 inches (10 centimeters) in parts of South Carolina and Georgia, and 2 inches (5 centimeters) in parts of Tennessee. Atlanta received 2.6 inches (6.6 centimeters) of snow. Many areas also received significant amounts of freezing rain and sleet.
The winter weather and the limited supply of snow-clearing equipment led to extreme travel woes throughout the region. In Atlanta, commuters faced gridlock on Tuesday afternoon as schools, businesses, and government offices all closed at approximately the same time. In many areas, roads that are normally packed with travelers ground to a complete standstill as accidents piled up. Frustrated by the gridlock, thousands of Atlantans abandoned their cars, which led to even more extreme congestion. Some children were forced to stay at school all night because the roads were impassable.
In the aftermath of the storm, there has been much discussion about whether meteorologists provided officials with an accurate forecast and enough warning. In a blog post published after the storm, Marshall Shepherd, president of the American Meteorological Society, argued they did. "The buses had a tough time getting kids home, but meteorologists should not be thrown under the bus," he wrote, noting that the National Weather Service had started issuing snow warnings and watches as early 4:55 a.m. on Monday.

Bioethics Program
Welcome to The Bioethics Program
The Bioethics Program at UC Davis began in 1996 when Dr. Erich H. Loewy became the first School of Medicine Alumni Association Endowed Chair of Bioethics. The Alumni Association established the Endowed Chair to affirm the importance of ethics education in the medical school curriculum, as well as to provide a resource in bioethics to the entire University. When Dr. Loewy assumed the status of emeritus faculty, a national search was undertaken and in 2007, Dr. Ben A. Rich was named the Endowed Chair of Bioethics.
The University of California, Davis and its health system have expanded significantly since the establishment of the Bioethics Chair, and the Program will be expanding as well to address the ever-increasing need for bioethics involvement in and consultation with the clinical research enterprise of UC Davis Health System. Core and associate faculty participate in the UC Davis Medical Center Bioethics Committee and its clinical bioethics consultation service. Through collaborative initiatives, the Bioethics Program also has linkages with the clinical departments, such as the Division of Pain Medicine (Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine) and the Center for Perinatal Medicine and the Law (Obstetrics and Gynecology), as well as the School of Law, the School of Veterinary Medicine, and the College of Letters and Science.
Recently, the medical school curriculum has undergone a major transformation with the introduction of the required interdisciplinary Doctoring course in the first three years. Ethics education is an integral aspect of the Doctoring curriculum, and is the primary mechanism for instilling core competencies in ethics to our medical school graduates. Program faculty also teach elective courses, including an innovative course in medicine and law that is open to students in the medical school, law school, and the masters in public health program. Specialized courses in research ethics are offered to participants in training grants through the Clinical and Translational Science Center (stem cell research) and the Medical Investigation of Neurodevelopmental Disorders Institute (autism research).

With today's blockbuster announcement that Star Wars: The Old Republic will be adding a F2P option, we took the opportunity to chat with BioWares Jeff Hickman, Executive Producer, Star Wars: The Old Republic and Matthew Bromberg, Studio General Manager, BioWare Austin about some of the new features players can expect. Read on!
Its happening, and sooner than you might think. BioWares Star Wars: The Old Republic is going F2P with a hybrid business model this fall. Players have been wondering about it, journalists have been begging for it, and it seems that all this time BioWares been listening and reacting. After being informed of the then embargoed announcement this morning, I had the rare opportunity to sit in on a call with BioWares Jeff Hickman and Matthew Bromberg (who recently took over as GM of the Austin studio. We talked about the timing, the reasons, and the way in which they believe SWTOR going F2P is just finally giving the players what theyve wanted, and breaking down the barrier into the Old Republic once and for all. The call was brief, but this is what Ive learned.

Not surprising, very aggressive move given launch of GW2 and MoP this fall too.
"any shift in staff they've made over the past few months has been to sort of rebuild the studio for this new F2P venture."
In other words, they were fired due to making a piss poor P2P game.
Anyway, to honor all the fanboys that have been posting to defend this great game since the last 4 months of Beta...nothing to see here, move along...move along...all is well...move along.
Such a shame, the game could have been great if so many didnt work so hard to shut down everyone that was pointing out what the game was missing.
F2P isn't the future for all games in the west. It's for games that have very little future.

Oh yeaah.. I predicted this after I tried beta. I said it has to go F2P by december 2012 or go down.
Serves them right for not listening to fanbase. Crappy models, awful animations, story-based singleplayer mmorpg (o.O), and space-on-rails.. How COULD it be succesful?
I guess DCUO won't be as lonely anymore.

I can see a lot of people that DIDN'T give the game a try trying the F2P version. I'm not so sure about those that already played tho. I guess it'll depend on what is included in the F2P matrix.
Apparantly f2p IS the future.... for games that can't hold a candle to other p2p offerings.

I still want my 80 dollars back. If I even bother to play the f2p I wonder how much of my stuff my level 50 shadow is going to lose.
Gotta stop buying mmos, I think everything I have bought lately has gone f2p....DC ..SWTOR..
Just wait a few months for the assured fail and then enjoy it.

Well, i'll certainly be going back to play the game properly if the hybrid model isn't too harsh on FTP players. Only if there's nothing better to play or I'm worn out on what there is and want a break though.
Its times like this that I would love to necro threads and highlight posts from as recent as...Last week. I also would LOVE to have a % rating on users (make a statement as fact, roll your eyes at anyone who disagrees and claim that you are a GW2 Fanboy for pointing out the obvious- This should be logged and forever follow your account for % of aaccuracy)
Many people have been saying this for Months and many defenders have been asking how tight our "tinfoil" hats are fitting... So its only fitting that those people who have posted the whole "rolling eyes", "you are an idiot" , "game is fine" should now have their posts necrod. LOL. (I am joking BTW...Kinda...)
Funny thing is, a similar thing will happen with GW2- The blatant defenders of "best game ever", "revolutionary", "OMG this changes EVERYTHING" will never have to face the music when the truth comes fully to the front (noit that GW2 is a bad game- Its just not nearly what the hype and fanbois will tell you-)
This (SWTOR) was a BAD game and not an MMORPG IMHO. This an EPIC FAIL since BETA and yet the hype was like nothing I have ever seen.
Crash and BURN, baby. This one NEEDS TO DIE. We need innovation and something with depth. If I wanted WOW I would play WOW because WOW is STILL the best version of Everquest ever made =P
-This game was the biggest dissapointment in gaming history (again this is my opinion) but the facts say "THIS FAILED"....And it couldnt have happened to a company more deserving of Failure than EA (The new SOE)

Southern Utah and Northern Arizona ranchers have recently received a letter from an organization identified as the National Public Lands Grazing Campaign asking ranchers to support a proposed federal grazing buyout program that would pay ranchers $175 per animal unit month to permanently retire their grazing permits. Worth Brown, President of the Canyon Country Ranchers Association said the organization would be more accurately named as the National Public Lands Grazing Elimination Campaign, for that is their dedicated purpose.
Brown said, the author of the letter, Andy Kerr, an outspoken opponent of public lands livestock grazing has stated, "Advocating better grazing of the arid West is like seeking better beating of little children. Their battle is 'better' grazing. Our battle must be no grazing." Kerr was also a leader in the "Forest Wars" that effectively destroyed the timber industry in the northwest.
"Kerr has declared war on the livestock industry. Kerr and his Range Net associates intend to totally eliminate public lands grazing by 2010. If he cannot buy ranchers out he intends to litigate or legislate ranchers off public lands," said Brown.
There is no buyout program. There is no funding for a buyout program. Kerr wants ranchers support to create congressional interest in a grazing elimination buyout program; costing $3.5 billion in tax money the proposed buyout program has little chance of success, especially at the proposed $175 per AUM, said Brown.
Brown believes that this is an important time for ranchers to strongly support their livestock industry. The Bush administration is developing policy in support of congressionally mandated public lands multiple use. The Grand Canyon Trust's buyout program is under administrative and legal challenge by Kane and Garfield counties.
Brown recommends that stabilization of the livestock industry and the retention of livestock grazing on federal lands will do more to protect the market value of ranches and allotments for present, future and retiring ranchers and is a much better alternative than an anti-grazing sell-out program. Without public lands grazing private land ranching in the western states would no longer be economically feasible, said Brown.
Instead of supporting the grazing elimination campaign, Brown asks that ranchers support the livestock industry, their rural communities and continue to practice good range stewardship. Most importantly, ranchers should contribute a loud voice in support of continued public lands grazing, said Brown.
Any Utah and Northern Arizona rancher is welcome to attend the Canyon Country Ranchers Association meeting on May 16 at 7:30 p.m. at the Warner Ranch located one mile south of Hatch on Fish Hatchery Road just off Highway 89. Tim Munns and Richard Nicholas of the Utah Cattleman's Association will speak on this issue. Brian Lamb is the secretary/treasurer for the Canyon Country Ranchers Association.
The following is a copy of the letter sent to ranchers from the National Public Lands Grazing Campaign. Dear Public Lands Grazing Permittee or Lessee: We are writing to inform you of a legislative proposal that if enacted by Congress would allow any federal grazing permittee to voluntarily relinquish their interest in public lands grazing to the government in exchange for compensation of $175 per animal unit month. To offer an example if this proposal became law a permittee with 300 cow/calf pairs that graze public lands for five months every year could receive $262,500.
Environmental conflicts with domestic livestock grazing are increasing, not going away. Under current policy, allotment closures for resource protection leave permittees without compensation for lost grazing privileges. Federal law is clear that no property right is vested in a grazing permit. However, financial and real estate markets do place a value on such permits. Understandably, permittees strongly resist cancellations and closures needed for resource protection, while agency managers are often reluctant to take action where needed because of the negative economic impact on permittees. We propose to compensate permittees who are willing to relinquish their permits as the obvious way to eliminate this barrier to better resource protection. While some voluntary buyouts of federal grazing permits are occurring on a very limited basis with private conservation funds, the National Public Lands Grazing Campaign is proposing a federal buyout program to meet increasing demand.
The undersigned are eager to find common ground with federal grazing permittees, who for whatever reason, are willing to voluntarily relinquish their interest in federal livestock grazing in exchange for compensation. Permit retirement would resolve conflicts between public policies of conservation and restoration of species, ecosystems and watersheds, and the practice of livestock grazing on public lands.
The average west wide market value of a federal AUM is $50-75. the proposed fixed price of $175 per AUM is generous and independent of market value to avoid expensive appraisal costs for each grazing permit, the $175 per AUM would also cover any improvements a permittee has made to an allotment.
Convincing Congress to enact a permit buyout programs will require political pressure from conservation organizations and taxpayer watchdog groups, and also support from public lands grazing permittees interested in relinquishing their permits for cash (either now or in the future.) Such expressions of political support from individual permittees will be crucial to the political debate. This letter has been sent to every national forest system and Bureau of Land Management grazing permittee in the West. The proposed buyout program would also be available to federal lessees on the National Park System, National Wildlife Refuge System, Department of Defense and Department of Energy holdings.
If this buyout proposal is attractive to you, either now or possibly in the future, please contact your elected representatives, local agency officials, and livestock industry leadership to notify them of your interest. A voluntary federal grazing permit and lease buyout program is a win-win-win proposal. It is good for the environment, public lands grazing permittees and taxpayers.
We don't have all the answers to environmental-livestock grazing conflicts. However, we believe the voluntary grazing permit buyout program is consistent with the Bush Administration's effort to work together, where possible, to achieve conservation through cooperation, communication and consultation.
Depending on the amount of political support and opposition, it may take some time to persuade Congress to enact a comprehensive voluntary permit buyout program. If you are interested in proceeding now, it may be possible with the assistance of local conservation groups to draft legislation for a site-specific buyout that could be jointly proposed to your congressional delegation. To begin this process please contact one of the organizations that work in your state.
The letter goes on to list the organizations: Center for Biological Diversity, Committee for Idaho's High Desert, Forest Guardians, Oregon Natural Desert Association and the Western Watersheds Project as the contact people for the western states.

Java Servlets it Java technology for creating the dynamic web applications. Java Servlets are server side components in Java that runs on Servlet enabled web server such as Tomcat, Jetty, Websphere etc.. Java Servlet is much faster then CGI and Perl since it runs in the same JVM. In case of CGI and Perl separate memory space is allocated for execution of the program which reduces it's performance.
For running the Java Servlet you can download the latest version of Tomcat server and install on your computer. It's much easier to use Tomcat for learning Java Servlet. These step-by-step tutorials will teach you Java Servlet and impart the knowledge necessary for developing and testing Java Servlet. After learning these tutorials you will be able to start using Java Servlet in your web projects.
In this section you will find several tutorials of Java Servlet.
First let's understand about web and web applications.
After understanding the basics of web and web application development we will learn about the Servlet technology of Java. The Servlet technology helps the developer to write dynamic web applications. JSP is also compiled into Servlet before it is executed on the container.
Let's get started with the Servlet technology. You can learn Java Servlet here with help of example programs given below:

loving these!
"I love these wedges! I wore them to work the first day I got them and got many compliments on them. I did have to remember to NOT walk so fast in them as I usually do at work because the ankle strap on the right shoe slid down a little. This did not happen when I walked at a normal pace."

Nobody's perfect
"The things we do for beauty!These sandals in orange/black are so cute that I am willing to put up with a lot.In pumps and athletic shoes I wear a 9. In fashion boots I typically wear an 8 1/2. Sandals can be either an 8 1/2 or 9. Per another reviewer writing about the tight straps I ordered these sandals in 9.The straps are made entirely of elastic with no buckles or other closures. When I first tried them on the straps felt very tight over the top of my feet, but I grew used to it.The problem is the back ankle strap. When I walk, the wedge heel slaps against the bottom of my foot (like a flip flop). When my walking speeds up the ankle straps slide down the back of my heel. The shoe hasn't actually fallen off, but it feels very awkward and I do have to sometimes stop and adjust the strap.I would never wear these shoes in an airport or a long shopping expedition, but they are very fashionable!"

We investigate the existence of a stable homotopy category (SHC) associated to the category of p -complete abelian groups [Special characters omitted]. First we examine [Special characters omitted] and prove [Special characters omitted] satisfies all but one of the axioms of an abelian category. The connections between an SHC and homology functors are then exploited to draw conclusions about possible SHC structures for [Special characters omitted]. In particular, let [Special characters omitted] denote the category whose objects are chain complexes of [Special characters omitted] and morphisms are chain homotopy classes of maps. We show that any homology functor from any subcategory of [Special characters omitted] containing the p-adic integers and satisfying the axioms of an SHC will not agree with standard homology on free, finitely generated (as modules over the p -adic integers) chain complexes. Explicit examples of common functors are included to highlight troubles that arrise when working with [Special characters omitted].

Works Great!I've been using this for awhile because these products work just as well on my hair as more expensive products. It's the only product that properly smooths out my mixed hair so that I can blow-dry it straight (I still flat-iron with the spray to give some shine, but I can get my hair pretty straight without the flat iron).
I use this with the shampoo and the deep conditioner once a week and the results last until the next week (barring humidity/etc). I've also experimented with skipping the shampoo and replacing it with a second deep conditioner since I only wash once a week or so (I use the anti-breakage conditioner) and it works wonders. You can mix and match shampoos; what matters most for the results you want is to use the conditioner (you can also mix other conditioners into this one if you want to get the benefits of others at the same time--I get the sense these products are made to be usable in combination with others in different sets). Smells great, and last time I went to the hair salon the people were surprised that a product under $10 allowed me to get my hair in the condition it was in. I feel no need at all to get the more expensive stuff anymore. :)Oct 7, 2013MinaHAIR TYPEBlack / Dry Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair
