Comments: Nice levels of power and comfort for a multi.
From: Anonymous, 3/16
Comments: This string has worked very well for my 4.0 baseline game. I had used Dunlop Silk for two years
and the NXT Power is a more explosive string. NXT Power does provide a nice amount of control. I highly recommend this
string to all players.
From: Marc, 7/15
Comments: I agree with anonymous from 11/14. Has anyone found anything to match the old NXT Tour?
From: Anon, 2/14
Comments: Regardless of what Wilson says, this is not the same string as the NXT Tour under NY
circumstances. I
am not just a club player. I played on the ATP Tour in the 80s.
From: Anon, 11/14
Comments: I have this as a cross with Solinco Tour Bite at 52 lbs in a BB DC London. The sweetspot is huge
there is a solid thump when contact is made. The NXT Tour softens up the stringbed in this hybrid. I would like to try this
a few
lbs higher, as there is more string movement than I'd like on a freshly strung racquet. This set up gives me nice control,
bite/spin, comfort and feel. I will use it again!
From: Anon, 12/12
Comments: Experimented with the NXT Tour, NXT, and NXT Max. Found NXT Tour to be far better than the
Had a much softer feel and much more control. Could take a much harder rip at the ball without having to worry about it
NXT and especially NXT Max seemed to have more power and less control. The NXT tour does break quicker than the
others. Feel
was incredible though. The ball feels like it is on the string bed forever.
From: Thomas, Atlanta, GA, USA, 03/11
Comments: Great string. Just tried this one in a Babolat Pure Drive 107 at 59 pounds at it provides great
feeling and power. The spin on the serve could be better but with the right swing you should be able to generate good
spin. I
decided to try this one because the poly/syn gut combination I was using was hurting my arm. Played three sets in the
with two tie breakers and not arm problem or pain. I think I going to stick with this one for a while.
From: Mike, PR, 01/11
Comments: Having had some serious arm problems I was advised to switch to a softer string from my usual
hurricane tour/gut hybrid combo, which I have been using for years (Babolat aero pro drive). I originally play tested
Babolat xcel,
which was a good string although not the most durable.
I went to my stringer and he suggested trying the NXT Tour and I am so glad that I did. What an amazing string! The feel
this string is unparalleled - really as good as Babolat vs gut for less money. String offered excellent power when strung at
and the spin potential for me anyways was just as good as PHT. (I think a lot of people look to a string to generate all of
the spin
for them, the magic string like everyone thought when rpm blast came out...spin is 95% technique...)
Anyway - most importantly I have ZERO arm issues since the switch; so I would say for anyone who has tennis elbow or
this should be your string. When the doc gives me the all clear I will stick with the NXT Tour, the touch is really incredible
and I
would suggest anyone to try it.
The only draw back is its not the most durable string in the word and is expensive...
Comfort 10/10
Power (at 56/55) 8/10
Spin 8/10
Durability 6.5-7/10
From: Justin, Birmingham, West Midlands, ENGLAND, 12/10
Comments: I used NXT for 2 years. I really wish I switched away from
it earlier. I didn't know any better. Too scared to change. NXT is
very soft. True. However, it loses tension and consistency very
quickly. I don't get much satisfaction playing with it after 2-3 hours
of play. It feels dead. From my strings, I want a few things in the
following order: (1) does not hurt my hand (2) control & feel (3)
consistency (4) power (5) longevity. For the past year, I tried
different strings and tensions about once every 6 weeks. I find
Luxilon strings best. For more feel, I would use Ace 18 on main and
Fluoro 17 on cross. For more power, I would use Fluoro 17 on main and
ALU Power 16L. I use mid-3, -4, or -5 tensions. Tension precision is
not important --- we, human, can make adjustments. Federer plays with
different string tensions and racquet weight in a single match. But
with the lower tensions, there is less/no pain and more feel, even
with Luxilon strings. You can hold the ball much longer in the racquet
(more bite & feel). I use Federer's racquet (the one before BLX) with
3 layers of 4" strip weight (12 strips total). Fast, full swing. Note:
for people with fast swing, lowering tension actually lowers power.
Experiment and see.
From: PH, HOUSTON, TX, USA, 09/10
Comments: Fed-like! I put this in the mains of my K-six one tour and crossed it with Banger Rough at 50
looking for that Federer set-up at a cheaper price point than gut and it plays beautifully. Seriously the ball sits on the string
and you can put the ball anywhere you like, effortless power, beautiful response when cutting the ball or hitting topspin.
Durability is the only flaw but do it, even if you only string it up for tournament play and use a cheaper poly/syngut set-up
rest of the time, worth every cent!
From: Pat, Albury, NSW, Australia. 03/10
Comments: I used these strings (mains @ 57) on my six one tour BLX as a hybrid with Luxilon BB rough
(crosses @
54) and it lasted for 4 days (under 12 hrs of play). The luxilon slowly started to groove and cut into the NXT 16 very quickly
and I
was not impressed with the longevity. I was happy with my few hitting sessions at the time....but these Wilson strings are
way too
overpriced and I did not find them durable at all. I most definitely would not be using them again...that's for sure!!
From: Glynn, Port Elizabeth, South Africa 03/10
Comments: Offers incredible control, feel, and comfort but lacks pop. The durability and tension stability are
pretty good compared to nxt16 and sensations16. My main complaint is that they are priced a bit too high (eg. Tecnifibre
is cheaper), but I do recommend that you try them.
From: Ross, CA, USA 12/09
Comments: I used these strings a lot. For me as a pretty hard hitter/all around types. For me it lasts like 3 to 5
months most of the time. It is beast in control if your good I recommend these strings. I'm beast with these strings. It has
power and spin.
From: Alden 08/09
Comments: Wilson NXT Tour 16 is probably the best multifilament string on the market. I can only compare
XCel to this but the NXT Tour is a little bit stiffer and hence has a relative better durability. Even though it starts to fray after
weeks or so it's the most durable multifilament string. And the comfort is amazing! Plays really like a natural gut. It has a
plenty of
feel as well especially on touch shots. The dislikes of this string: When I played with it I always felt lack of power and the
potential was miserable. It was very hard to generate powerful topspin forehands. And there's no doubt that it lose it's
very fast and starts to move (I've strung it at 57 lbs). Control and slice could be better but that's ok. Overall NXT Tour 16 is
of it's price and perfect choice for hybrid's crosses and players who suffer with tennis elbow but not recommended
baseline hitters, power hitters or serve-volley players at all.
I'm an all court 4+ player using Wilson nTour 95 with Luxilon Big Banger Alu Power 16L at 55 lbs.
From: Tom, Hungary. 7/09
Comments: Great gut-like string for about 7.5 hrs of play and then it loses tension quickly and becomes a
From: Mike, CT, USA 07/09
Comments: I have a Yonex RDIS 100 MP. I found these strings to be good all around. Nice pop on your serves
good spin and they performed well from the baseline. I was able to generate spin on both sides. I do think they are bit
if you are a big hitter. I get about 8 hours of play out of them before they break. So I would go broke getting my racquet
every 3 days. So if you have money they could be worth it.
From: Finch, Modesto, CA, USA. 05/09
Comments:Just been strung on a K Tour on the mains at 63lbs with Luxilon Alu Power rough on the crosses at
59lbs. It has a very good pop, not bad control, and very comfortable. I
recommend to highly string it, otherwise you will probably find it too powerful. Durability isn't looking good so far though as
have only played with it for just under an
hour after stringing, and the crosses are already dug into them half way.
From: James, England. 12/08
Comments: I really don't understand some of the negative reviews for this string. I use this strings on my
(K)ONE racquet strung at 65lbs. I play 1-2 times a week for about 2-3 hours. I have had these same strings now for 6
months with
modest wear and I kid you not, very and I mean very little loss in tension! There is plenty of power, but most likely because
of the
racquet, and the ability to hit topspin and backspin is pretty good, but not great. Also I have not had any tennis elbow
issues with
this string. I highly recommend it.
From: Wil, Dallas, TS, USA. 11/08
Comments: I strung these at 60lbs on my Head Microgel pro and I like the way these play, but I don't see them
lasting long. I am getting a ton of movement on the strings and after a week of play the already look quite worn. They have
a nice
feel but are bad on durability and staying in place.
From: Thomas, MN, USA, 06/08
Comments: I played with these strings for about a month and a half, and they have already frayed enough that
need a new string job. And with my busy tennis schedule, I don't need to have to string my racket every month. I am not a
pro by
any means, but I think strings should last longer than this. My other rackets' strings have lasted much longer without
needing a
new string job so soon. Sorry, Wilson.
From: Sam, Idaho. 4/08
Comments: Great strings, good power, not as much control. But still good. I would say not as durable as I had
From: Jon, Bristol, Maine, USA. 3/08
Comments: Great string, a bit stiff at first in my ProSTaff 90 tour strung @ 50lbs. Great spin potential -- it
the ball well along with awesome control. The down side: It lacks a bit of power. 3-4 weeks later when the strings started to
and dig into each other, it's just awesome. The sweetspot actually grew as the strings lost a bit of tension, power, spin and
control, Perfect strings. (I'm not a hard hitter unless it comes to practice sessions.)
From: Vincent, Hong Kong. 1/08
Comments: I just got my Head Radical Liquidmetal 98 sq in strung with this at 60 lbs. I first played with it on a
Tru court with really heavy ball made for a hard court and thought that the string was to tight at first. The next day I played
with it
with it with lighter balls. This was the first time I really could get a feel with the string. I thought that it was good string, but
the best I have had. It's pretty powerful string. It has nice access to spin and the control is all right. But not a bad string at
From: Jonathan, Northern VA, USA, 07/07
Comments:I play with a Wilson n61 95.....I use Luxilon Alu power mains...and Wilson NXT Tour for my crosses.
have tried Tech NRG2 and 515..Head FXP....and various others....none have compared to the NXT tour. String has
durability, excellent ball pocketing, soft touch, excellent control. I use this combination for rec. play...but before
will usually string 2 of my 4 sticks with straight NXT to have even better feel, control than with ALU...just less durability, but
durability is not what I am looking for in a tournament. I plan to continue to check various strings out...but 3 of my
racquets will
always have NXT until I find something I like more.
From: Stephen, Willow Springs, MO, USA. 4/07
Comments: This is one of the best multifilaments. A lot of spin and control. Power is just right. I love it.
From: Mike, Singapore, 02/07
Comments: This is simply great in playability. I am a 14-year-old junior who trains nearly every day and this
has hardly ever let me down. This string on playability would get 9/10. Here are the negatives: The durability is poor, this
snapped every 2 weeks and it is also very expensive. Overall, great feel, bad durability. 8/10
From: Samu, Helsinki Finland 08/06
Comments: These strings have such great control on the ball. Great pop. I strung my nBlade at 60lb with this
and it
is amazing. It doesn't feel as soft as a cheaper string that was in it before, but the cheaper string didn't have any of the
control or
power like the NXT Tour. NXT Tour is an amazing string; I would recommend this over the NXT for just the reason they are
in price and that the Tour model is extremely better.
From: Alex, Plantation, Florida, United States 07/06
Comments: I used this string on both Prostaff 6.0 85 and nSix-One Tour 90. I strung both of them at
60lbs. This string is powerful but has a problem with durability and tension retention. If you guys want to
improve your game, this string is a good choice. Also, you are supposed to change this string once a month
due to the problem of its tension retention.
From: Pongsak, Bangkok Thailand 05/06
Comments: This initially struck me as a very playable, soft string with good spin
potential and control. However, the NXT lost its tension very quickly and became quite loose,
making my Wilson nSix One feel like a power racquet. So I tried the Wilson Stamina Spin
and Prince TopSpin plus strings (hoping nylon strings would hold tension better--they didn't)
and did not notice any difference in playability or softness, making me wonder if the NXT
multifilament string is worth the extra price. I've gone ahead and ordered natural gut string,
which is reputed to be the ultimate in playability, feel, softness, etc., but holds tension much
better than nylon or multifilament synthetic strings. And the less expensive natural gut
strings cost only a few dollars more than the NXT. I'm about a 3.5 control-oriented player
who very much prefers higher tension strings.
From: Gaku, San Diego, CA, USA 03/06
Comments: I've just started to uses these strings. I have tried out many other
brands and have also used natural gut (but it is very expensive although great to play with)
and have found this to be the closest to natural. I train 20+ hours a week and I get 12 hours
of play out of these strings. I also had an operation on my wrist (rugby injury) and the string
has been a lot more forgiving on it. Also, it is helping my mum with her tennis elbow. and for
the price it is excellent and a must have.
From: Ed, London, England 11/05
Comments: Good string for the money. I string my own rackets so the price of
cost isn't bad. I get about 20 hours of play before they break.
If you hit with lots of spin and power and get more than 10 hours, you're strings are holding
up well. There are probably better strings out there but who has the time and money to try
them out. Get this string if you want a solid string that plays well and is durable.
From: Bing Hu 9/29
Tucson, AZ.
Comments: This string not very durable. It is not good for people who break
strings. (my rating comfort:5 feel:6 power:7 control:8)
A better string is just plain Wilson NXT. It's cheaper and has better playability.
From:Roshan City, State, Country:Cupertino ,CA, USA
Comments: Excellent strings for the first few hours, a lot of power and control,
also pretty durable. Not so great is that the
tension maintenance is horrible, and quite a bit of a tension lost. Performance dies out fast.
NXT tour is still a pretty good string compared
to the NXT.
From:Binh City, State, Country: Sugar Land, TX
Comments: I ordered NXT Tour 16 with my new nCode nVision. I've played four
to five times a week for a month with these strings and find them to be the best I've ever
used. After all these hours of aggressive play, the tension has dropped very little and the
wear is modest. These strings give my game the best spin control I've experienced, and the
smoothness from the racquet bed is remarkable. I've found the string to keep on my
racquets for the foreseeable future.
From: Bob, Dataw Island, SC, USA 06/05
Comments: Simply amazing. There is no way to describe how I feel about these
strings. They are so durable and
flexible. I break strings every 2-3 weeks. The strings are so good I can hit my ball over the
net now with more confidence. The strings
are really good and help my game a lot. I get more spin on the ball with these strings. The
NXT synthetic strings are essential to my
game. I love them so much.
From: Nick, Bakersfield, CA, USA. 3/05
Comments: The NXT Tour string gave me a lot of spin. It generates a huge
amount of spin and a huge amount of control at
the same time. I find that it gives me both power and control along with a lot of spin. This
string will really make a difference in your game.
It feels like it will take more effort to hit a shot long, short or wide, than it would to take a
winner with this shot!
From: Matt, Hong Kong. 01/05
Comments: I am a 5.0 all-court player who has used and experimented with lots
of string brands. I find the NXT Tour to be excellent. It has great responsiveness and
playability, as well as power. It doesn't move much on the racquet (H Tour 95), and gives
fabulous control. It volleys well, overheads can be hit hard, and with directional control.
Groundstrokes feel very firm (not crisp or sharp), and serves get great placement and pop
without over-swinging. It retains tension well, and I use 17 and 18g at 52lbs. It is also gentle
on the arm. If you are going to use nylon, this certainly is the way to go!
From: Mark, Atlanta, GA, USA. 4/04
Comments: Simply amazing. Great feel, great control and great power. It has
increased tension stability compared to regular NXT 16. The sweetspot feels huge. I am
hitting more winners more often with this string. The durability has been good so far.
From: Bill. Notts, UK. 11/03
Comments: Absolutely amazing! This is a definite step up from Wilson NXT 16.
The biggest difference is the tension maintenance. Despite NXT tour 16 and regular NXT 16
being composed of multifilament Xycro Micro fibers, tension maintenance on the tour
version is much better. From the first hour it played beautifully. I'm 9 hours into playing with it
and string movement is not a concern. It is only just starting to fray a little on a couple of
main strings. I'm playing with an open pattern 16X19 frame. I am sold on this string. It is so
soft and offers so much control.

By By DIANE TADEHARA
March 11, 2010: Fatigue, fever, chills, night sweats, itching, and weight loss... and a healthy baby girl just four days old. Mom is only 24 but knows the ropes of motherhood thanks to Jaylum, age 2, and little Joshua, age 6. Hormones can cause a number of new and interesting effects not unlike these being experienced by Lynsey Wood Brinkerhoff. So surrounded by her young family, nursing Jaynee, it was easy to dismiss the distinct lump in the center of her throat nestled between her clavicles. However, the pain and size needed attention.
Consulting her ob/gyn, she learned about a condition called postpartum thyroid. Since her doctor was out of town, she went to the emergency room two days later. The blood tests were all normal. Lynsey was not content without knowing what was really wrong then. The details she can recall make it seem like time was moving in slow motion.
After the blood tests, a CT scan was done. The radiologist did not want to scare her, but did not sugarcoat the findings - possible lymphoma. That's when she thought, "Are you saying I have cancer?"
Within about a week she saw and oncologist and an ear, nose, and throat specialist. They started her on heavy-duty antibiotics and steroids to reduce the swelling. Learning the only definitive way to diagnose cancer is through a biopsy, she went in for a surgical biopsy. The premise being pain + swelling = infection and lymphoma. Crossed fingers, waiting.
April 1, 2010, April Fool's Day, formerly called All Fool's Day. Lynsey received a phone call from the pathology office telling her the lump was not cancerous. Excitedly, she spread the good news.
Then there was another call. Why? To apologize for the first call. She was given the wrong information. She does have Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Not wanting to believe it, she thought it was a cruel April Fool's joke. Surely, they must be wrong. Then things began to move too fast for her to keep up with. Appointments were made, but not by her. She could not wrap her brain around what was happening. So many medical terms and procedures - bone marrow aspiration, PET scan, chemotherapy, radiation. Where, in all of this, did the simple joys of motherhood slip away to?
April 11, 2010, One month after finding the lump, Lynsey had dozens of blood tests, scans, and had started the first of four sets of chemotherapy infusions to battle the Stage II-B cancer that had invaded her neck and chest.
After the 16 chemo treatments, she had one month reprieve before starting 17 radiation treatments. The daunting task of driving to and from Salt Lake five days a week was eliminated by a woman Lynsey had never met. Her husband, Josh, works at Trimac in Cleveland. A co-worker of his in Arizona made all the arrangements and payments through Trimac for Lynsey, her little ones, and her mother to stay in a hotel in Salt Lake for the entire month she would be having the radiation treatments. What a tremendous gift.
Once Lynsey was diagnosed, her parents and husband began to read as much as they could about the disease. Lynsey never did. Everything was moving so fast she never felt ready for treatments or their nasty side effects. She says, "It never seemed real to me." That is until the last chemotherapy treatment when she was overcome by emotions for five days as it struck her just how sick she was.
Lynsey sees her oncologist every three months for check-ups. Hodgkin's has a cure rate in the high 90's if it is found early. She was told that she was doing great and would keep doing great. That's about when she felt brave enough to ask about the disease. The doctor told her she probably had the cancer for two years or more prior to her diagnosis.
As they discussed symptoms she recalled being itchy during the last three months of her pregnancy, having night sweats, and body aches. Then she asked the "what if?" question that every cancer patient asks at some point in time... What would've happened if she didn't find that lump when she was nursing her five day old baby?
The oncologist told Lynsey that if the Hodgkin's had gone one more month undetected it would have been fatal. The swollen lymph nodes would be too taxing and overpower her heart and lungs. That didn't seem real at all. It doesn't help that Lynsey has some difficulty recalling all that has happened to her. She thinks the memory gaps are a self-defense mechanism. If she could remember everything, she may not be able to handle it.
Some of the things she remembers clearly are her beautiful, long, blonde hair that all fell out and was eventually replaced with curly locks that didn't behave or belong. She remembers how tired she would get and the pain that jumped up without warning to defeat her attempts to hold and cuddle her children. She remembers how angry and ornery she was when she was taking steroids.
Cancer changed her life both in ways she didn't want and ways that were blessings. Some of the negative shadows that she drags with are the after effects of the steroids, weight gain, constant fatigue, and being so tired of being tired. When Lynsey starts getting stuck in the downward spiral of discouragement and depression, she can look back at the benefits she and her very large family has experienced.
Both Josh, who is the oldest of nine children, and Lynsey, who is fifth of six - have grown closer to each one of their family members. The support has been constant and ongoing. She still has days when it's just too painful or difficult to even get out of bed. That's when she turns to her children and pulls herself up by her bootstraps to go on. They lift and motivate her. She finds the reason to live in their eyes and words.
Little Joshua told her that he loved her even without hair. That makes him a little hero, like the lady from Trimac. Jaylum and Jaynee are little heroes, too. Someday they will look back and marvel at all Lynsey has done. Until then, they will just help motivate and love Lynsey.
A bright, clear-eyed, energetic young woman of 25 shouldn't have to think of her future in terms of a bucket list, but when a doctor looks at you and says, "You have cancer," then you make the time to reprioritize.
First on the bucket list was a home of their own. They had no idea how it would come about, but they set to it and are in their very own.
Next will be a vacation - with or without kids, but a real vacation. A sense of self-satisfaction, to play more with the kids and appreciate Josh more, and to serve others, a chance to repay some of the little heroes who have helped along the way.
Lynsey feels one way to help is Relay for Life. She has four very important reasons to Relay and they will be with her at the Emery High School track on July 15 at 6 p.m.
Come join your community, meet Lynsey and give her the chance to brighten your day. We all have reasons to Relay.

Soybeans Records Longest Slump in a Month on Brazil CropJeff Wilson
Soybean futures fell, capping the longest slump in a month, on speculation that a quickening harvest in Brazil will erode demand for U.S. exports. Wheat dropped, while corn rose.
Brazil's soybean harvest was 48 percent complete as of March 8, compared with 46 percent a year earlier, Safras & Mercado, a Porto Alegre, Brazil-based research company, said this week. The National Oilseed Processors Association cut the so-called crush in February from a year earlier. Analysts forecast a 4.6 percent increase.
"Soybean harvesting is moving ahead quickly, and that means more shipments headed to overseas customers," Roy Huckabay, an executive vice president for the Linn Group in Chicago. "The smaller U.S. crushing pace last month was a surprise and underscores a shift away from the U.S."
Soybean futures for May delivery fell 0.7 percent to close at $14.26 a bushel at 2 p.m. on the Chicago Board of Trade. The price dropped for the fourth straight day, the longest slump since Feb. 12. This week, the oilseed fell 3.1 percent, the most since Jan. 4.
Wheat halted the longest rally since July on speculation that a rebound in global output will reduce demand for supplies from the U.S., the biggest shipper.
Soft-wheat production in the European Union may rise 2.6 percent to 127.77 million metric tons, Coceral, the Brussels-based industry lobby, said today. SovEcon raised its Russian grain-crop forecast to as high as 89 million tons from a peak of 87 million last month. A year earlier, output was 70.9 million.
Wheat futures for May delivery dropped 0.2 percent to $7.23 a bushel in Chicago. The price rose in the previous six sessions. This week, the grain climbed 3.7 percent, the most in two months.
Corn futures for May delivery rose 0.1 percent to $7.17 a bushel. This week, the price advanced 1.9 percent.
In the U.S., corn is the biggest crop, followed by soybeans, hay and wheat, USDA data show.

Who to Cheer for Now?
Brian O'Neill
April 22 2009 11:07AM
With a 10 day spring break, the Canucks are heading to Cancun to enter wet t-shirt contests; However, the rest of the league, is either swinging a club or a series. The Canucks fans, have grown tired of jumping on cars and beating up cops. (Not naming names ...[cough]Surrey [cough]. They want to know who to cheer for.
Ducks or Sharks?
We'll ladies and gents, I'll break it down for you. We want Anaheim, I repeat, Anaheim to win. If the Ducks win, then the Detroit Redwings (inevitable winners of the Bluejackets), will face the Ducks. This means that two juggernauts face off against each other. No matter what, one of these monsters is no longer on the path to the Cup a la Lord Stanley. So issue #1 is solved. Reasonable minds would conclude that Anaheim is the team to cheer for.
Blackhawks or Flames?
This is an issue that could actually start a debate. Since we concluded that we want Anaheim to win, the Flames/Hawks are our only possible opponents. A bonus and significant advantage, home ice, is ours. Regardless of which team wins, Vancouver is currently the strongest of the three.
Do we want the Flames? Right now they are colder than your ex-girlfriend (you know which one). They are still an undermanned beaten down team. The only thing they have going for them right now is the Saddledome. With home ice, the Flames can be a threat. Keenan, we all know has a cup ring. Bertuzzi, if he has his Wheaties for breakfast, can obliterate a player for a series/season with one hit. We have lost to the Flames before, and we remember how unpleasant that feels.
Do we want he Hawks? The Hawks are young, were talking St. Louis young. However, Chicago's young guns are actually loaded. Their tender has one a cup. Havlat seems to be the king of clutch. However, as loud as it may seem in the United Center, the Saddledome is louder I can assure you. Chicago definitely seems like the mentally stronger team. I don't think they have the potential to pick up the same momentum as Calgary.
This series looks like it is probably going to seven. Both opponents will be formidable. If I did have to choose, which I do, right now, I would pick the Hawks to win. From what I remember, if you wake up big bert, and Iginla, these sleeping giants can decimate your team and your series. If Kipper gets hot, then your really in trouble. In closing, booooo the Flames, cheer the Hawks.
So for all you Canuck fans who were too busy looking out your window for patrol cars, heres a summary. Cheer for the Ducks, and the Hawks. Trust me.
April 22 2009, 11:11AM

I say go Flames. A Canadian round two battle would be awesome!!
April 22 2009, 02:23PM
As fun as it would be, I'd rather take the easy route. A conference final would be more exciting than any second round matchup.
April 22 2009, 05:04PM
I actually think Calgary's an easier matchup than Chicago; they have a significantly weaker defense (Especially at present), less scoring up front, plus Kipper's been average (at best) this season and while he can get hot, so can Khabibulin, and if Bulin gets cold, the Hawks have a capable backup while the Flames do not.
That said, I'm cheering for the Hawks, because I just don't like Calgary.
April 22 2009, 05:23PM
I think Calgary is shite, right now, but if they take Chicago, they will no longer be cold. I think the Canucks can capitalize on the youth of the Hawks. Lack of experience is easier to shut down.

Traders' stimulus hopes Wednesday included some extra pixie dust for emerging-markets funds, which surged much faster than their net-asset values.
The Market Vectors Russia ETF (RSX), which my colleague Randall Forsyth discusses here, leapt 4.6%. Its net-asset value gained 1%, according to FactSet Research Systems. The iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index Fund (EEM), which ended up 2.9%, also outstripped the rise in the NAV, which rose 0.5%.
You see a similar trend in the iShares MSCI Brazil Free Index Fund (EWZ), which rose 2.4% while the NAV gained 0.2%.

Ed Byrne: Standing Up, Falling Down
Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2006
New stand up show about the adventures of an ordinary man at war with the everyday world.
Original Review:
This probably isn't the best place to see Ed Byrne. Not just
the venue, a cavernous sports hall that nonetheless gets so hot
he has to leave the huge loading door open, meaning people milling
about outside are forever in the peripheral vision of around
half the audience, but the Fringe itself.
Byrne's in the big league of international stand-ups now, as proved by his expert appearance at Montreal's Just For Laughs Festival. But his impassioned observational shtick just isn't that adventurous in a festival where so much else is on offer, no matter how eloquent and amiable he is.
Tonight's gig was made all the stranger by audience interruptions,
not so much heckling as fans wanting to engage in tangential
conversations with Byrne from the back row. It's an indication
of how well he's got that 'mates down the pub' style of casual
delivery nailed that people genuinely think it's a two-way street,
not a gig. The interruptions make it impossible to build up momentum,
at least until Byrne silences them with typical good grace.
This show takes its loose structure from the Michael Douglas film Falling Down. It's no serious analysis or deconstruction, but a technique to provide milestones in Byrne's hour-long set. Since the theme is frustration ('no major diversion for comedians,' Byrne admits) the episodes in the film where Douglas's character loses his rag so spectacularly provide jumping-off points for various routines
What gets his goat are ticket touts, modern rap, James Blunt's You're Beautiful, lastminute.com, parents who use their children as a trump card in any argument. It's a mix of things everyone's got irate with, things that are just him and, unfortunately, things other comics have also become wound up by. He's certainly not the first comic to despise Blunt, or wonder if America's 'customer is always right' service ethos is linked to the fact that the customer may well be armed, however funny the riff is.
Byrne's grumpily despairing anger is best when it's pointed inwards at his own idiocy, rather than outwards at the world in general. The finest routine involves a disastrous trip to Tunisia, for which he's got no one else to blame but himself.
There's another strong segment about the American hate group God Hates Fags - an easy target, maybe, but none the less deserving for that.
It's fairly mainstream stuff, expertly delivered, but lacking that edge that would make it stand out in this overcrowded festival.
This show is touring in the autumn, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it when it's the only big comedy show passing through your town that week. But here, where there's 500 other more ambitious comedy shows vying for your attention, to see a big, safe show seems hardly in keeping with the Fringe spirit.

I didn't enjoy it at all - think his material is going down the hill and it was very mainstream.
Richard Gill - 20/08/2006
I had seen Ed before at the Festival and on tour and for me; he has been a lot funnier. Don't get me wrong, this show is really funny in places but it just seemed a little tired this year. I wanted to like it more because he is a very engaging performer.

|In response to Re: toilet on a slab rough-in-
: No real difference from in a wood floor other than you're going to have to break concrete. Basically, the toilet rough in is 12" from the back wall to the center of the flange. The flange connects to a closet bend and then to pipe to the sewer line. If you have more than 6 feet between the toilet and the sewer, you will have to add a vent which will likely mean more concrete breaking. The drain must slope 1/4" per foot to the sewer and if you have to make a direction change, make it as gradual as possible. The water supply comes in 8" from center and 8" above the floor, although you can vary this if necessary. When you get the pipe in the proper position, leave a few inches of pipe out of the floor. Replace the concrete and level it, but leave a space around the pipe where the flange is to go. The flange sets on the finished floor (if there is to be one) That's about it.

Film composer Tyler Bates was the featured guest for a recent installment of the GRAMMY Museum's Reel To Reel: An Evening With series. In an intimate interview setting, Bates discussed becoming a film composer, his early influences and composing the score for Conan The Barbarian. Following the interview, Bates took questions from the audience, held a live composing demonstration and performed a brief set, including "White Tide" with singer/songwriter Lisa Papineau.
"I was fortunate enough to meet people who liked me enough to teach me," said Bates. "There's a purpose to the music that isn't expressed on-screen. You need to understand what that is and it took me years to get to that point."
More recently, Bates has scored films such as 2011's Sucker Punch, Conan The Barbarian and The Darkest Hour, as well as the television show "Californication." Aside from film, Bates has also composed video game scores for "Watchmen: The End Is Nigh," "Army Of Two: The 40th Day," "Transformers: War For Cybertron," and "Sucker Punch: Annihilation," among others.
Upcoming GRAMMY Museum events include An Evening With Thomas Dolby (Oct. 17), Reel To Reel: The Original 7ven (Oct. 18), Great Guitars: Steve Lukather (Oct. 24), Great Guitars: Steve Cropper (Oct. 25), and An Evening With Judy Collins (Nov. 1).

Here's a look at what's buzzing in the book world today:
Ohio kidnapping book: Amanda Berry and Gina DeJesus, two of the three women held captive for almost a decade by Ariel Castro, are working on a book. The AP reports that the women will collaborate with Washington Post reporters to share their harrowing story.
Whiting awards: Ten emerging writers have won the Whiting Writers' Awards, which give no-strings-attached $50,000 to those showing "accomplishment and promise." This year, winners included Amanda Coplin (The Orchardist) and Jennifer DuBois (Cartwheel).
Call of the 'Wild': Cheryl Strayed's best-selling memoir Wild, about her solo hike along the Pacific Crest Trail, is drawing similar soul-searching hikers to the trail that spans from Mexico to Canada, reports The New York Times. The book, which came out in 2012 and was chosen by Oprah to launch her new 2.0 book club, is currently being adapted into a movie, starring Reese Witherspoon.
Give a book: Want to share the love of reading? The Huffington Post has rounded up a list of 7 bookish charities to facilitate donations, including World Book Night, Literacy for Incarcerated Teens and First Book.
Bookish baby: Going viral in the book world is the story of a baby boy who was born in the lobby of a Barnes & Noble in California on Friday night. Says witness Delia Ramsey, to ABC 7: "I think they should name him Noble."
Colbert talks erotica: Leave it to Stephen Colbert to express his opinion on Kindle erotica. On Monday's episode, the comedian snarked about the bevy of self-published books coming from Kindle Direct Publishing, such as, "the Jane Austen inspired Pride and Penetration or the historical fiction, Abraham Lincoln, Ninja F---master" -- and the genre "dinosaur erotica," which he describes as for "anyone who has been to the Museum of Natural History and said, 'I'd tap that.'"

After returning for a better size I spoke with customer service who affirmed that I would have the correct size is my dress size was a 7. My size 3 daughter found the suit way too snug. Now I have to pay for more shipping and I will have no suit because they are out of stock.
Unfortunately, we can only give our cutomers the best estimate of sizes. One customer may feel a certain fit snug whereas another will feel it is just right. We do the best we can with the information we are given.

Hello All,
I have a lateral run of 3" PVC drain pipe that had a small hole drilled in it (don't ask). I picked up a pair of 3" repair couplings and a length of 3" pipe to try and repair the area.
After several attempts and an expanding section to be replaced, I can't seem to join two pieces of pipe together that don't leak when a drop of water runs across the joint.
My question is am I missing something in my procedure? I slide the couplings onto the new section I am putting in, I prime (purple) the outsides of the pipe surfaces I am going to join. I wait 5 minutes for the primer to dry. I liberally apply PVC cement (blue) where I primed. I quickly slide the coupling across the joint and am barely able to get a quarter turn before the whole thing sets up. I wait about 30 minutes and run a little water through the pipe and voila - it leaks...
Do I need to prime the inside of the coupling? I didn't think that would be a good idea because I heard that the primer kinda gets the PVC to swell a little and I fear I wouldn't be able to slide the coupling when I needed to.
Since I seem to be PVC challenged, could I just use one of those rubber couplings with the hose clamps? (the pipe is in the ceiling of a finished garage)

By Brandon Speck/NEMS Daily Journal
Kenny Paul Geno's first impression of Florida Gulf Coast: it's a long way from home. But with the NCAA Tournament darlings now in the Sweet 16, a lot of people's impressions of FGCU are changing.
The Fort Myers, Fla., school has yet to offer the Booneville senior, but made first contact with him a few days before beating No. 2 seed Georgetown in their opening tournament game.
The 11-year-old program is in only its second year of postseason eligibility.
"It's pretty neat they're already to that level and that's sort of how we play at Booneville, up-tempo, (alley) oops…" Geno said. "I like how they play. It's what I'm used to and I like their emotion."
The "Dunk City" Eagles blasted their way through the Hoyas and San Diego State thanks to their free-styling, above-the-rim play.
That's the same reputation Geno developed, as an energetic 6-foot-6 dunker with a jump shot and a rebounding prowess.
Geno actually saw FGCU play this season. On an unofficial visit to Mercer on Jan. 2, Mercer beat the Eagles in overtime.
Geno says he would consider a visit, but says despite the success and current fame, the nearly 700 miles from Booneville is tough to overlook.
"I could tell they were pretty good. They've got a lot of talent and athleticism all over," he said.
Georgia is making regular contact with Geno and Middle Tennessee State is getting more involved. A visit to Jacksonville State is planned for next week.
Mercer, Jacksonville State, Lamar, Radford, Union and Delta State have officially offered. Florida Gulf Coast is on an interest list that also includes New Orleans, Troy, South Alabama, Mississippi State, Belhaven, Blue Mountain and the state's junior colleges.
FGCU is becoming known for more than basketball, namely its coach, Andy Enfield and his supermodel wife, Amanda Marcum. Enfield, 43, made plenty of retirement money when he co-founded a health care-related retirement company in his 30s before leaving Wall Street to chase a coaching dream.
That won't play into Geno's decision, but sometimes it's all about location, location, location.
"The campus is on a beach, so that's pretty neat," Geno said.

- Mononoke
Wondrous display of animation, with enigmatic and canny main protagonist, who is flamboyant in every aspect of his appearance. Absolutely engrossing story, amalgamation of supernatural and detective genre with specific melancholic tones make this anime one of the best one I had pleasure of watching.
- Guin Saga
Extremely underrated anime who animation wise definitely belongs to top tier - qua captivating display of landscape, meritorious use of colors, affection towards minor details. Regaling fusion of fantasy and politics, meticulous development of characters, with all enveloped in heavenly tunes - makes this anime ostentatious in every manner.
- Oban Star Racers
While I usually dislike any sort of racing, I was completely won by the way this anime presented it - via splendidly written story, and nice animation. Not to mention very lovable main protagonist, and many emotionally emphasized moments which provoke tears.
- Soul Eater
Mostly on this list due to extraordinary comedic moments provided by the obsession with symmetry of a certain character. In general Soul Eater is a nice Shounen anime who actually doesn't suffer from mass amount of plot holes and inconsistency, except the stupefying end, albeit overall provides a decent amount of enjoyment.
-Shaman King
Without much elaboration, and prolonging, one of the best Shounen anime(s) I had the pleasure of watching.

Oilers Negotiating With Dwayne Roloson
Jonathan Willis
June 17 2009 11:11AM
I've been watching the newswire pretty closely over the last few months for news on Dwayne Roloson. For all of the holes on the team, the most important one to address before next season is the currently empty number one goaltending slot.
This morning, Rob Tychowski gave all of us a rather vague update on the negotiations so far:
The Oilers also entered preliminary discussions with netminder Dwayne Roloson this week, but the talks are more about philosophy than contract mechanics. Roloson's camp considers him an elite-level netminder worthy of elite level money (and term) while the Oilers have to decide whether they're interested in entering a multi-year deal with a veteran netminder who'd be 41 in the second year of a contract. It's a tough call when they have Jeff Deslauriers in the wings and there are younger options out there on the trade and UFA fronts. They'll talk again later this week.
A few points, if I may:
1) Jeff Deslauriers is not an option for the starter's job next season. He simply isn't, and running out of the gates with him in the #1 role is as stupid as Colorado's decision to roll with Budaj/Raycroft last season. Possibly stupider, since Budaj at least had a consistent NHL track record. He's easily in the picture for the backup job, but he's not close to supplanting Roloson.
2) I'd like to see Roloson come back. He's a combative professional, and there's never been any question about his effort in Edmonton. He was one of the few bright spots over this past season, and I can't understand why so many people seem to dislike him so much.
3) That said, Dwayne Roloson is not an elite-level netminder. He's not even the best UFA goaltender this summer - more on that in a moment.
4) Finally, there are plenty of available goaltenders and precious few starting jobs. Roloson isn't likely to get a multi-year deal from anybody else, and Steve Tambellini shouldn't give him one – even if it means that he walks.
Taking A Look At The Field
I did this ten days ago when discussing where Josh Harding might fit into the Oilers plans, but here's another look at avg. save percentage over the past three years with Dwayne Roloson in bold:
- Anderson: .928 SV% (.931, .935, .924)
- Biron: .913 SV% (.899/.908, .918, .915)
- Khabibulin: .909 SV% (.902, .909, .919)
- Roloson: .909 SV% (.909, .901, .915)
- Conklin: .909 SV% (.871/.892, .923, .909)
- Clemmensen: .909 SV% (.889, .839, .917)
- Garon: .908 SV% (.907, .913, .895/.894)
- Gerber: .907 SV% (.906, .910, .899/.905)
- Fernandez: .906 SV% (.911, .832, .910)
- Labarbera: .906 SV% (.910, .893/.915)
- Legace: .904 SV% (.907, .911, .885)
- Boucher: .904 SV% (.884/.866, .932, .917)
Of goaltenders in the same range, Craig Anderson hasn't been a starter, while Nikolai Khabibulin has been inconsistent since winning the Cup in Tampa Bay and frankly scares me a little given what his salary is likely to be. With Philadelphia apparently running out Emery/Esche as their tandem for next season (and good luck with that, by the way), Martin Biron is looking for a new home and given his age and track record I think he'd have to be considered a better option than Roloson.
In any case, there are at least three starting-calibre goalies out there (four if you include Anderson) and that doesn't count guys like Harding, Halak or Lehtonen who might be available via trade. Steve Tambellini has all the leverage here; if Roloson balks at a one-year deal, he has plenty of options.
In other words, if, as Tychowski says, Roloson is looking for "elite level money (and term)", it's might help to point out to him that Martin Biron and Nikolai Khabibulin are both on the market.

Weird that you would know that, but earlier this year when you had Ritchie Hall on your show you didn't know that Kelly Campbell was in Tampa Bay. A sports talk show host should at least know the players on the pro teams in town...
@ Mike:
Kinda being an unnecessary dick no?

How is Khabibulan even listed as an option coming off a good season and a ticket of $6.75 million? There's no chance, none, the Oilers spend a nickel over $4.5 million on both goaltenders combined because it'll tie their hands when it comes to addressing holes at forward and mute any pie-in-the-sky talk about chasing a big name FA or getting into the Heatley bidding.
Personally I think 2.625 on both goalies max. Give (Exhibit A) 2M and JDD working at 0.625 and then work on dealing with the rest of the holes on the team. If its Roli, so be it, but I wouldn't give him more than one year.

Sir, I like what you bring to the table. This is the kind of thinking that lands a guy a nobel prize.
I'd love to see Roli back, he gets no love, but he is a fierce cometitor. That said, only if he's willing to take 1 year at reasonable money, or 2 years cheap. I'm sure his agent has looked around at the few spots for more than a few goalies and can figure out they aren't in the power position.
