Skip to comments.Good-bye [if I can't post my 9/11 troofer garbage to FR, I'm leaving]
Posted on 06/25/2009 12:41:23 AM PDT by ThePythonicCow
A few months ago, I posted some information on bank financial strength. The post was a complex table and it took me sometime to make the post. Not long after, I forget but perhaps 10 or 20 minutes, the post disappeared. Figuring I made a mistake, I posted it again. This time I was pretty sure I posted it correctly. It disappeared within a few minutes. To verify that this was what was happening, I posted a third time. It again disappeared immediately.
I never received any feedback from FreeRepublic on this matter.
It annoyed me, but since I have always trusted FR, and since I have so far as I know maintained a sterling reputation here as a well behaved citizen for the eight or ten years I've been here, I shook my head in confusion and forgot that incident.
Just tonight I posted a more controversial post involving 9/11. It disappeared within minutes (after I had verified that the post succeeded).
Again, no notice public or private, before or after the fact. Just poof.
I will cancel future monthly FR donations and leave. I cannot support a political discussion and news site which makes seriously intended posts by long standing contributors of good standing just disappear without notice, public or private, before or after.
The SanityIsland.us site, with some Daily Dose images, will remain around likely for one year, then go away without further notice. I may be reached via email at email@example.com (yes, I have excellent spam filters.)
Sites have a right to do as they please, but also a responsibility to stand up for the actions they take, at least involving participants acting in good faith. FR apparently is failing to honor this responsibility.
I would ask that in the future removals of posts made in good faith by members in good standing at least be recognized in private messages to the poster after the fact, stating the approximate cause for removal. Even a 'boilerplate' explanation would be better than nothing.
I wish this fine community and the good people here well. This nation is in dire need of honest reporting and discussion.
Where was the article from? Maybe it was from a URL that was not allowed.
Not exactly a high traffic time for FR.
I, for one, am not happy to see you go. There seem to be fewer and fewer readily-recognized handles left these days.
This is all news to me. Anyone know anything?
If that is a URL that is not allowed, that is understandable. It is not a conservative web site by any stretch. Indeed, my post itself was one I realized might not be acceptable at FR, and I warned in the body of my post that readers should be skeptical.
I do not have any particular beef with the removal itself.
The complete lack of feedback as to the removal of the post, after it had been successfully posted is not something I condone. I believe my post was actually replied to once, as I saw my New posts to you indicator light up a few minutes after posting, but then that new post, and my post, were gone.
If it was a "bad" URL, FR should say so.
If you want to see for yourself google: 9/11 FEMA videographer at Ground Zero goes public
poof might be the problem...
Hmmm ... guess I'd better remove my FreeRepublic.com bumper sticker as well. Yes, I have one.
Your posting problems are probably just a bug.
But you shoulda told me. You can be blunt, you can do so after the fact, without further discussion or recourse. Just a private message saying "pulled - garbage" would have been sufficient.
I am not a mod. I happened to click on it and it was already pulled with the reason stated. I was curious so I googled the title. You have been here long enough that you should know that that kind of crap is not allowed.
If that were the case, a message would have appeared just after he hit the "post" button, saying that this website does not permit it's contents to be disseminated on FR or any place without previous permission from them. At other times, FR will refuse to post articles from certain websites they deem unreliable.
Hello—I must be going....
You've not had any threads pulled this eve that I can find.
Please advise as to what the thread title was, then I will find any record of it being pulled, who pulled it and why.
And my views on 9/11 have diverged from FR. Which may be another good reason why it is time the FR and I went our separate ways. That I no longer instinctively found the article to be garbage is a good clue that I have diverged from the direction of this forum.
Can you give the URL to the article that was not permitted to be posted on FR?
Did you FReeper-mail the mods to ask why?
Sleep on it. Come back fighting liberals after you've gotten some rest.
And so it begins.
The title (thanks MARTIAL MONK for capturing it) was "9/11 FEMA videographer at Ground Zero goes public". The site was silviacattori.net.
But my request stands. The mods should at a minimum send out a canned private message when a member in good standing has a thread pulled, so that the user knows it was a deliberate pull, not a computer glitch or even a failure to even complete the post correctly.
It would have been right around midnight (mountain) because it was first in my IE history for today.
It does seem like an odd circumstance. Perhaps the Mod was being cranky?
One of the best things about FR is the willingness to allow discussion of various viewpoints. Those who want to enforce orthodoxy beyond the unalterable conservative values are actually the problem with conservatism, not the solution.
As John Locke - one of the core conservative philosophers - was clear to point out, ideas both good and bad should be debated. If an idea is truly bad, the debate will expose it. If it is surpressed it will be impossible to rebut in a manner that will be convincing. It is a basic first amendmant tenant.
Those who wish to stifle debate are America's Taliban on the left and right with the same tactics and same goals.
I really wish you would stay.
cowhide may not be tough enough but you dont really have to go. After all, if you have fun here, maybe it has something to do with the editing (which is the very reason why you want to go)
I kinda like it, it adds to the drama.
Dat's it. Dat's what I saw.
Sounds reasonable, but I don't know how much additional work that would entail for the mods.
This reminds me of the Bill Cosby joke about how parents are not interested in justice, they just want quiet. Sounds like that is the philosophy of some mods, too.
I hope you change your mind.
Well said.
But even given that, any veteran here will tell you there are certain subjects/opinions that do not get a good welcome here.
I know for a fact that not all FReepers agree with the official conclusions about 9/11. There are some questions that need asking.
But it is totally up to Jim and the staff whether this is the place to ask them. I can definitely understand not wanting to turn this place in to a 9/11 debating site.
But forum admins should take responsibility for their actions. They don't have to debate them or put them up for votes or even engage in public discussion of particular details.
But silently nuking a message from a user who has over 7000 prior posts over almost nine years, all taken without such problems, is unhealthy for a forum.
Hopefully everyone can clear this up. Don't need to lose a long time member like yourself.
Keep posting, many will keep reading.
not even good hogwash, and I am usually amused by good hogwash and slick conspiracy theories, but this one is pretty weak
As MARTIAL MONK reported above, if you managed to find an old link to the now dead post and clicked on that link, you get a message stating it was pulled, and (usually) a word or two stating why.
If that message had also been automatically privately messaged to me, as the thread poster, I would have been a happier camper.
And those are?
I read it a few days ago. A few interesting tidbits but no real smoking gun.
I have been away from FreeRepublic more this last year, and had drifted away from the FR position on 9/11 further than I realized. A "post pulled - garbage" message would have been sufficient reminder to me that I was outside what FR chooses to accept.
See ya . . . er . . .
no yitbos
So the Moderator did give a reason on that page (which will remain on the web forever).
The reason a thread is pulled is usually posted at the top of the thread when the the thread is reopened.
The decision of the moderator was agreed to by several others who looked at the content at the time.
Sorry that you are considering leaving. I'd say that you owe yourself the opportunity to communicate with the mods... it is easy you know - and learn why users and mods here have little tolerance for those that spin lies about what happened on 9/11.
NOTE - I personally did not review the post, but I have implicit trust in the people who did.
Good read. We don't need to be the taliban on this site.
So by my counting, this post tonight is my first and only strike in 7000 turns at bat, not to mention other forms of substantial contribution to FR fund drives and the Daily Dose column. If that had gotten an immediate ZOT, then that's not good in my view at all.
Speak for yourself.
Please post it again.
Me too. Pure BS.
The guy is fighting extradition from Argentina for killing his wife. He is using his photo work for FEMA at the 9-11 site to say the government is out to get him.
The other problem may have been the article title stated "9/11 FEMA videographer at Ground Zero goes public".
He did not just go public....he was spouting this exact nonsense 2 years ago according to this article:
You're batting nearly 1,000%.
You must be using a corked bat.
What about that earlier bank-info table you put up? Was it sourced? Linked? Explained?
If it were put up during a time when people were understandably nervous about bank runs, and there were no sourcing, then perhaps a mod got antsy about it, since in later discussion it would always be attributed to "Free Republic".
Get with the Mod about that earlier table and see if he can run down what happened to that, too, since it was obviously a real issue for you, both the subject matter (since you did some work on it) and the handling of it by the mods.
Stick around a bit, Cow, and let the Mods run down the story on your two pulled posts.
Good to see you again, hope you can stick around.
Read 24 lil hitler.

Bobby Gene 'Bob' Likes
Memorial services for Bobby Gene "Bob" Likes will be held at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, June 4 at the First United Methodist Church with Reverend Tom Towns and Chaplain Marvin Graves officiating.
Bobby "Bob" Gene Likes (75) went to his heavenly father on May 31, 2014.
He was born on Jan. 31, 1939, in Cortez, Colo., to the late Dale and Edith Likes. He spent his early years in the Lewis/Arriola area before returning to Cortez. On Aug. 12, 1961, he married the late Fay Conrad, with whom he had three children – Lana Waters (David), son Les Likes (Susan), and son Brett Likes.
On Feb. 1, 1986, he married Terri Fuhrman, who brought three children to the family, who Bob embraced as his own; son Troy Fuhrman (Joanna), son Delvin Fuhrman (Rosie), and daughter Kim Rule (Keith).
Bob was an avid baseball fan, spent many years coaching teams in the Cortez area and enjoyed watching his sons and grandsons play. He also loved spending time with friends and family hunting, camping, fishing or rock hunting.
Bob worked many jobs, but his longest employment was for Southwest Beverage in Durango, which lasted about 30 years. Afterward, he semiretired, maintaining rental properties.
Bob is survived by wife Terri; his children; brothers Larry Likes (Kay) and Duane Likes (Barbara); sister Beverly Papoff (Rick); uncle Charles Newby whom he loved as a brother (Carol); and many cousins, nieces, nephews and close extended family members.
Bob also leaves behind his loving grandchildren whom he adored: Tiffani and Ryan Waters, Jessie, Cody, Lizabeth and Bobby Likes, Korie Likes, Michael Necaise, Kyler and Braden Faulk, Randia and Chase Rule, Elizabeth Kellison and one great-grandchild.
In lieu of flowers, please consider placing a donation in Bob Likes' name at the Community Banks of Colorado, 1438 East Main Street, Cortez, Colo. 81321, 970-564-0200. Funds will go to the Mercy Health Foundation Cancer Center and Little League Baseball of Cortez.
Services are under the direction of Ertel Funeral Home. For information, click on the obituary section at ertelfuneralhome.com.

Robert Knottenbelt's interest in science and new technologies led to his use of computer-aided design processes to develop compositions such as i sing of time tide. Generally, these works allude to biological phenomena, a subject of great interest to the artist since the beginning of hid career.
i sing of time tide, with its honeycomb grid based on the microscopic structure of a plant, belongs to the artist's Diatoms series. This series title refers to an ancient species of aquatic plant.
These works begin as sketches on graph paper. They are interpreted by a computer-aided design program to provide data that control industrial water-jet cutters that shape the component glass plates of Knottenbelt's finished works. The geometric precision of this work is typical of Knottenbelt's sculptural glass.

Style # 206827
Logo Chenille Convertible Glove 3 3
Warm and Gorgeous I highly recommend the black gloves. I saw the white ones in a store and they look a lot cheaper. The black ones are gorgeous and very chic without being over the top. They also never get visibly dirty because of the colour. The gloves are warm, but obviously not suitable for heavy duty use in freezing weather. They are sufficient for a short walk in the cold though. I also love how the gloves are convertible so that my palms can stay warm while using a touch screen phone. The Swarovski crystal logo and shiny button are a nice touch too. December 31, 2012
Great gloves I ordered these gloves and when the arrived, they did not disappoint. They are very soft, warm and you can still use the touchscreen on your phone or tablet. The swarovski crystals are also a nice touch. Very happy with this purchase. December 28, 2012
love the versatility Absolutely love these gloves! They're perfect for the cold weather, especially since you don't have to take them complete off use a touchscreen. Definitely ordering more! December 12, 2012

The decade-long experiment with local, district and county professional development boards has come to an end.
At its June meeting, the State Board of Education adopted regulations proposed by the N.J. Department of Education that reduce the role that teachers play in their own professional development by eliminating these bodies.
Local, district and county professional development boards came into existence when the so-called 100-hour PD requirement became mandatory in 2001. Although the capacity of these bodies varied from district to district, the structure of the system gave educators input into the professional development that was offered in their districts.
The 100-hour requirement has also changed. Previously, educators were required to earn the hours over a five-year period. The new regulations require that 20 hours of professional development be acquired each year.
The new code also eliminated the State Professional Teaching Standards Board, replacing it with a "professional learning community" appointed by the commissioner of education.
Throughout the code adoption process, NJEA criticized these proposals on the grounds that they excluded teachers from the professional development process. NJEA characterized these regulations as a "top-down, one-size-fits-all approach."

Federal employees will pay an average of 3.4 percent more in 2013 for premiums in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program, the Office of Personnel Management announced Thursday.
"On average, FEHBP Program enrollees with self only coverage will pay $2.75 more per bi-weekly pay period," OPM said in a press statement, "and enrollees with family coverage will pay $6.39 more."
Premiums for dental insurance will increase by an average of less than one percent, OPM said. The cost of buying vision insurance will, on average, decrease by less than less than one percent.
Open Season dates
Connolly calls for 3.2 percent pay raise for feds in 2018
Connolly calls for 3.2 percent pay raise for feds in 2018
Open season this year will run from Nov. 12 to Dec 10. During this time, federal employees can buy or make changes to their health, dental and vision insurance. They can also make changes to their flexible spending accounts.
OPM leaders said the average annual increase for FEHB premiums has steadily declined since 2009, when the average premium increase was 7 percent.
"I am pleased that we were able to keep the average increase low again this year," said OPM Director John Berry. "It is important that we deliver competitive rates and benefits through an efficiently run program to attract and retain top-talent in the federal service. Once again, we successfully used our market leverage and previous years' experience to negotiate the lowest possible premium rates without sacrificing benefits."
Unions respond
But unions representing federal employees said the increases are too much to handle.
The American Federation of Government Employees called for a moratorium on all FEHBP premium hikes.
"FEHBP premiums increased by an average of 7 percent in 2011 and 3.8 percent 2012 while federal pay did not increase at all, due to the [pay] freeze," said J. David Cox, AFGE national president, in a statement. "Congress and the administration have decided to turn the federal workforce into a 'fixed income' population that simply cannot afford another cent toward already inflated FEHBP premiums."
Colleen Kelley, national president of the National Treasury Employees Union echoed the sentiment, though she did not endorse the idea of a moratorium.
"Any increase is hard for federal employees given the freeze on federal pay," Kelley said in a statement. "NTEU is committed to working to make the proposed 0.5 percent pay raise for the federal workforce retroactive to January and to increase pay raises in the following years."
Different premiums for different plans
Actual premiums for 2013 will vary from plan to plan. OPM will add five new plans, bringing the total number of options to 230.
"The average premium has gone up 3.4 percent, but the average always hides a wide variation in individual plans," said Walt Francis, principal author of Checkbook's Guide to Health Plans for Federal Employees. "Some plans have actually decreased premiums, and others have gone up much more than 3 percent. … You have to pay attention to how things are changing, or not changing, to make a smart choice."
FEHBP insures 8.2 million people, according to an OPM fact sheet.

Country Club of Bristol goes semi-private
BRISTOL, Tenn. - The Country Club of Bristol (The Club), which has a history that spans almost 120 years, will reach another milestone in its storied history when it becomes a semi-private operation on May 1.
Transitioning to a semi-private club means that non-members will have the opportunity to play rounds at The Club's golf course, beginning May 1. Non-members who wish to play will need to contact The Club to reserve a tee time.
A spokesman in the pro shop told WCYB that the cost for a round of golf including a cart will be $50.00.
The tennis and fitness facilities, as well as the swimming pool, will continue to operate for members-only use.
"We are excited to make our beautiful and challenging 18-hole course available to the general public," says owner Brent Roswall. "We look forward to seeing many golfers who are new to our course enjoy its great play."
The restructuring of Club operations has made new limited-time membership opportunities available to individuals and families. Membership information and rates can be obtained by calling The Club at 423-652-1700.

Jones Ace Hardware had a grand re-opening celebration recently. They celebrated the remodeling of their store. Pat Jones said they have rearranged everything in the store to make things easier to find and easier to get around.
The check-out stand has been moved to the front of the store and another cash register added to aid in getting customers in and out quickly.
Ace Hardware offers a wide variety of paint and hardware items. There are household appliances and sporting goods.
Plumbing supplies, electrical, lawn and garden products and bedding plants can be found at the store. The store offers a wide variety of lawn mowers, weed eaters and blowers.
At the grand opening the Emery County Business Chamber did a ribbon cutting ceremony for the business and gave the store a plaque to display in their store. Chamber President Julie Jones thanked Pat Jones and all his employees for working hard to be the best store they can be and to serve the citizens of Emery County. She complimented the store on all of the recent improvements and upgrades. Gary Kofford cooked hot dogs for everyone who shopped at Ace that day and there was free drinks and popcorn for everyone.
The Emery County Business Chamber encourages everyone to shop at home whenever possible to keep the tax dollars in our communities.
Pat Jones tells the story of how Jones Ace Hardware came to be. "My great grandfather worked on the LDS temple in Salt Lake City. He stayed there in Salt Lake until its completion. After that he moved to Wellington. His grandfather started a trucking business. The family rented the Whitmore ranch and raised 60 acres of produce which they sold to mining camps in the region. They also grew watermelons. They made a good living and worked hard. His grandfather did all the weeding himself and there wasn't a weed on the whole plot.
He passed his work ethic on to his family. His grandfather started a thrashing business and a lot of his time was spent in Emery County. His grandmother was from Emery County. His grandfather ended up bringing the business to Main Street in Castle Dale. This was in 1936 and they were in the grain business and put in grain handling equipment. Others joined with the business including Jones' dad and uncle. They set up a steam roller which ground feed for cows.
Jones had three brothers, but of them, he was the only one interested in maintaining the family business. When he was just out of college, his dad had health problems and needed help with the business. Jones told his dad he would come back and help if he could put in a hardware store. They tore down an old building and put in a hardware store which has grown into what it is today as they have added several aspects to the original business.
Back then money was hard to come by, but the Helper Bank took a chance and helped with the funding of the business. Jones Ace Hardware was born.
"Our goal was to help our people get hardware here in Emery County. Back then you had to go to Price for everything and we wanted the people of Emery County to be able to shop in Emery County," said Jones.
Jones attributes the success of Ace Hardware to their service and their willingness to invest in Emery County and put their money back into their business. They have a service minded business that caters to the customer and seeing they are taken care of and that they find what they need in a friendly, clean environment. Jones also pointed out they have a liberal return policy for merchandise.
Jones Ace Hardware carries a wide variety of paint, gardening and plant needs, seeds, fishing and hunting supplies, electronics, hardware, appliances, plumbing, heating, electrical and other miscellaneous items. They also sell hunting and fishing licenses. They will mix paint to find the color you want and will offer advice on your home projects.
Jones is proud of his helpful, friendly staff and they want to be your hardware store.
He encourages everyone to come in to see what Jones Ace Hardware has to offer. Jones Ace Hardware is open Monday-Saturday from 9 a.m.-6 p.m.

Zoosk.com is currently the UK's 4th largest dating website and their new marketing strategy is going to cause quite a stir in the industry. Traditionally dating websites see users sign up, start dating and then leave the site when they meet someone and agree on dating exclusivity. Zoosk's new strategy to maintain their user base is to encourage people already in relationships to stay and or join the dating site! They plan to do this by offering incentives like restaurant discounts, relationship advice to encourage couples to join/engage with the site. Maybe they want to attract a broader audience and get people to join to make friends as well as date. There are sites like Badoo that are doing very well in this area. And then of course there is Facebook where millions of people post their most up-to-date relationship details and pictures to all and sundry..
This is a daring move as I don't know of other traditional dating sites have made this change to their strategy. It will be interesting to see how Zoosk's competitors react. What do you think?

Skip to comments.2012 ELECTION LIVE THREAD II !!!!!!!!
Posted on 11/06/2012 4:02:30 PM PST by GQuagmireEdited on 11/06/2012 5:00:14 PM PST by Admin Moderator. [history]
Since I haven't seen one yet, I'll start it.
Shelayne said it. I'm only watching FR so I don't know where she saw it.
Here's a link to FL election results. With about 7 million votes in, Obama up by 10,000 (or 0.15%).
Obama wins PA 68 to 31 UGH
FOX showing FL exactly 50/50.
Rove likes OH, PA has been Republican fools gold, but I like IA and WI better.
FL + VA + OH = chemical equation for real change.
Right now FLA Gov is reporting Romney up by about 300 votes.
Romney has edged into a very narrow lead in FL with 76% counted!!!
There went PA, that is too bad.
PA called for BO..
I don't recall implying that Romney was doing bad at all. In fact, one of my most recent comments was that Romney still has a chance to win in a landslide.
I never once said Romney was doing bad nor have I said Obama was doing good. Simply not true.
By the way - Fox just called PA for Obama
WY should be marked for Romney...
Florida 78% reporting Romney only 200 ahead.
0bama wins PA
All I can do is LOL.
Those people are really retarded.
The polls in the panhandle of FL only closed a little more than an hour ago. Romney will pile up a huge amount of votes there.
Fox calling PA for Obama - puke.
As a percentage of the vote, nothing much.
Rom is up 3,000
"Sorry to burst your bubble but this has not been the USA since at least the demise of Ronald Reagan. There is no question America has passed her zenith. The question is merely the speed and sharpness of the descent. Romney slows it down, Obama speeds it up, but it IS in fact happening."
Glenn Beck said the same thing. RR was correct, it only took one generation.
The usual red states vs. the usual blue ones.
Holy shoot, we lost.
Obama won this. I am f ing depressed.
PA falls to Obama! Cavuto reports.
Fox called PA for Obama
Romney just won Michigan, was that expected or not?
O just got PA and if you put your crack pipe down and look at the counties that have been counted in Fla and OH, Romney is losing. He also lost Vigo county IN.
May change, but the map doesn't look good at 9:17EST.
Florida panhandle probably still dribbling in.
Romney just moved in front in FL by about 300 votes.
FOX just called PA for Obama.
PA called for BO. Damn!
How can FOX call PA for O ?
Same here, 80% of the posters have linguine instead of spineS.
Thanks for nothing, Pennsylvania. Drop the tease on us, then yank the football from us.
Well... it's now down to Ohio, VA, FL, NC and CO. Gotta run the table.
I thought Obama won Michigan?
Obama wins PA...OMG...so we are going to really bite our nails about Ohio, VA, and FL now. I am sick. Those darn Obamamaniacs in Philly and Pittsburgh. How dumb can they be?
PA just called for Obama. Maybe they're wrong.
How can FOX call PA for O ?
Per who?
Re: YOU only express concern about how bad Romney is doing.
No, I never said Romney was doing badly tonight thus far. Not once. I recently said he has a chance to win a landslide. I have no idea what you're even talking about
Not sure why I keep buying pundit claims of GOP landslides.
If so Obama got as many brandy new customers as he lost old disillusioned ones. P.T. Barnum was correct.
Obama won Wyoming?????
Yeah, but how much in liberal areas are still reporting in?
Wisconsin is in play too!
Yes He is.
I think I heard Romney won that state.
Looks like we may lose fl and oh too.
What is wrong with these voters??
The media is our enemy. Are we going to let Obama and The media dictate everything for 4 more? Cause we obviously lost.
None of these idiot voters even KNOW WHAT THE F OBAMA DID IN BENGHAZI.
I am depressed.
Michigan was only close in the polls.
The Detroit addiction to welfare will never be remedied IMHO.

Great chapter!
Looks like Nanamine is back for more. I wonder what point is he trying to prove.
Manga reading list: Bleach, Naruto, Katekyo Hitman Reborn, One Piece, Code Breaker, Gamaran, Kuroko No Basket, Fairy Tail, The World God Only Knows, Kimi No Iru Machi, Good Ending, Medaka Box, Nisekoi, D.Gray-Man, Ao No Exorcist, Freezing, Magi - Labyrinth of Magic, Soul Eater, Rosario Vampire Season II, Iris Zero, Ubell Blatt, Bloody Cross, Sun-Ken Rock, and Infinite Stratos,
This is very very strange...Nanamine to me always seems to scared to come out clear, he's always either using or hiding behind others...
I'm interested to see what his part is with Akira's come-back to the manga scene...
I see the start of an addiction! Oh boy, this is gonna be a good one.
This was a good chapter and all, but for real, how many times does Ashirogi Muto need "a fire lit under them?" Seriously, like, no matter what is happening in the manga my man Hattori goes "man this'll sure motivate Ashirogi! ...Even more!" It's getting a bit stale. Aren't they motivated already? Weren't they motivated when they we went to the high school reunion, and going up against Nanamine, and during the romance-off, and when Eiji was ending Crow? Weren't they motivated initially by the whole marrying the nonentity known as Azuki, who has gone and achieved her goal like over 40 chapters ago?
I hope this arc leads to some actual forward progress on the whole anime front, for srs.
Nanamine returns? On top of it, he starts off with a potential series which Ashirogi Muto are hoping to make.

James van Riemsdyk at centre is going to happen, isn't it?
Cam Charron
July 12 2012 09:09AM
Bit of a media blitz in the last 12 hours relating to the possibility of James van Riemsdyk playing at centre between Phil Kessel and Joffrey Lupul:
The major takeaway from van Riemsdyk's initial meeting with Maple Leafs beat writers was, indeed, that JvR is "definitely excited" about the possibility and "it's a great opportunity for him".
The National Post, and both the Toronto Star and Toronto Sun made that the major focus on their reports. Naturally, it's the big story, but does JvR really fit into the centreman position on this team?
Again, I'm squarely in the "Mikhail Grabovski is the best centreman on this team" camp. Grabovski is the two-way centreman the Leafs need on that first line. Kessel and Lupul are suspect defensively and Grabovski's game off the rush fits right into their style of play.
If you look at most of JvR's goals, you don't see that play-controlling ability. Rather, much of his goals are a big guy using his size and strength in front of the net. It's certainly a good talent to have, but is this the player that Brian Burke and Randy Carlyle are really banking on making that first line defensively responsible to guarantee the unit a surplus in goals?
Sure, in both of these goals, there's a good burst of speed generated, but he's not the last man back in either of his goals off the rush last season:
And the second...
Compared to Kessel, Lupul and Grabovski who score between 50%-65% of their goals off the rush, just 2 of JvR's 7 even strength goals last year did. I think it's a good thing to have on that first line wing to balance up the attack a little, but is he the guy to lead a rush or to be the first forward back into the zone?
The amount of attention being given to the possibility of van Riemsdyk starting the year at centre makes me think the Leafs may go through with this crazy idea if no other options become available. If New Jersey's financial trouble doesn't free up Travis Zajac, or if the classic options like Colin Wilson or Paul Stastny can't be obtained by Toronto, then the Leafs may feel they're up the creek at forward.
Grabovski is still the best option up front. It would give that line a 60% possession rate and push at least one plus-possession winger, whether it's Nikolai Kulemin or van Riemsdyk, onto a third line. I just see so many more possibilities when you keep van Riemsdyk at wing. At centre, you're homogenizing the lineup. The Leafs were a 48% possession team without Kessel on the ice last season, and putting your only acquired forward asset with your top scorer isn't changing anything below.
Hopefully there's a solution in the works.
I don't see what is wrong with a tryout. The downside is very limited, but the upside is that you have a big, skilled top line Centre - the type of player that is simply impossible to acquire outside of the draft. Why wouldn't you want to give it a shot?
It seems to me that the smaple size you're looking at in terms of 2011-12 goals is pretty small, but even so he clearly demonstrates the required speed to keep up with Kessel. He isn't the last man into the zone because he is playing as a winger.
Is there something in his advanced stats to suggest he won't be strong defensively?
July 12 2012, 09:53AM
I'm with you on putting JVR on the wing. The Leafs need more balanced scoring. Lupul and Kessel were ppg with Bozak in between them last season. How much better could they possibly be with JVR there?
Whereas on the second line, JVR is a big upgrade over Kulemin who would then be freed up for a more defensive role on the third.
I like the idea of putting JVR at centre. This will force Kessel and Lupul to be more defensively aware as they won't have bozak to bail them out.
July 12 2012, 10:41AM
Bozak did little bailing last year. He's not very solid defensively. If he was he'd be a better #1C candidate.
Grabovski is still the best option up front. ... At centre, you're homogenizing the lineup.
I keep reading this and feeling like I missed something.
Grabovski's line with Clarke MacArthur puts up points against tough comp.
Homogenizing the lineup would be putting Grabovski and Kessel together and having three lines of guys who can't score or drive possession.
Or are you saying "homogenizing" like making every line mediocre?
I still don't get it because Grabovski's line is so good that breaking them up feels like making everything mediocre.
Granted, I haven't seen a whole lot of JVR, and I believe he was drafted as a center, however, given that he hasn't played more than a handful of games at that position in the NHL it seems a bit presumptuous to suddenly put the mantle of a 1st line center on him.
I'm with Cam on this one. Grabovski is the best bet, I'd argue. It may deplete some of the secondary scoring, but if it means bringing along JVR more slowly and letting him acclimatize to the center position playing softer minutes then it would be the more responsible move in the long term.
The Leafs desperately want that #1 center. They have traded for a player who could, potentially, occupy that position. The problem is that right now it would seem like need is outweighing player development and if things don't go well for the young man, in the crucible of Toronto sports media, the young man's confidence could be crushed and then the Leafs will just end up with a promising young player who needs to be traded away in order to rejuvenate his career.
I realize much of this hype is coming from the media, but has there been any official word, aside from Carlyle's comments, about where JVR might fit?
July 13 2012, 12:35AM
Maybe they should try Dion Phanuef at center?
Just curious...when has Ryan Getzlaf EVER been the first man back?
What really makes this seem like a possibility is that Carlyle never said (as far I as can find/see) we're going to try JVR as center _on the first line_.
Burke's also said they may solve the center position from within the organization. Never of those statements imply anything other than they're going to try to solve the #1 center position from within.
I like Grabs on the top line and if you put Frattin and Kulemin on the 3rd, all of a sudden you have a 3rd line that can actually check with size and speed and scoring upside.
How can anyone possibly be against trying JVR at center??? Bozak has NOT worked out there, so sticking with him instead of taking a chance is stupid and cowardly. JVR has a skilled left stick that has obvious benefits on a line with righty Kessel... Breakout give and go plays to gain the zone with speed... JVR will be strong on the boards behind the net and the left stick is optimal for dishing to Kessel for one-timers. Surely Kessel is optimistic at the idea. A big skilled lefty at centre is what Kessel has needed all along.
And if JVR can't pull it off, just move on with knowledge gained. It's not like Carlyle would keep JVR at centre permanently even though it wasn't working. There's no good reason not to try it unless you're from the future and know it already failed miserably.
Further... Bozak was great on the 3rd line and shouldn't lose a job in Toronto. I see Steckel being the odd man out if JVR sticks at centre, not Bozak. Anyone using the argument to keep the player where they have previously fit should also be saying Bozak should be a 3rd or 4th line centre, not 1st.

When a rule is broken or not?
In the beginning, when I was a newby, I was banned for posting links with hosts that pay for the links( this was a bit later lifted as their wasn't a direct conflict with the rules, Megaupload never payed and some of the other links were from the group). I asked back then too some admin, and they told me as long their isn't any 'personal gain' with it their isn't any problem. With other words, if one of the original links is put up their isn't any trouble at all.
Now the problem is that lately, I see a lot of flash forwarders like adfly (etc.), I still put it in question that it's allowed to use this?
Like the rules say, it's forbidden to use Advertising Rules that aren't genuinely benefit to other members (example: they post a link called direct download, but it isn't a direct link at all, you get a forwarder with a lot of annoying advertising (sometimes pornographic), and finally you get the message "user is out of bandwidth" (this is repeating for almost 2 months now), similar things happens with a link called mediafire, after an advertising with an annoying clip shown, it will be followed by the reader link( huh?)).
Those forwarders aren't even allowed, because Affiliate IDs are not permitted.
Mirrorcreator doesn't cause any problems with it, because more links is benefiting for the users, it's not an affliate ID as it doesn't pay and pornography is strictly forbidden on their service. (The only problem that it has, is that your obligated to post those links for preventing a ban from their service).
Another problem are post with wrong crediting, missing crediting or fake post on the tracker that regulary pops up. How do they even get even approved?
Something else that is annoying users post links with modified content like the names that are changed (or corrected without the permission of the group,) and some of them brag about it.
(Note: I put this up as a post, so that everyone can read it.)

At Thursday night's SIC Board of Trustees meeting, President Jonah Rice, Ph.D., informed the board that plans are underway for Southeastern Illinois College to serve as the starting point for the inaugural Shawnee Marathon and Half-Marathon, slated for Saturday, Oct. 26, 2013, and sponsored by the Harrisburg Park District.
The college campus's combination of ample parking space for a large crowd of runners and long history as a training ground and regional cross-country course made it an ideal location to stage the initial phase of the run.
"It's an honor and a pleasure for Southeastern Illinois College to be able to play host as the launching site for this event," said Rice. "Southeastern has a history of promoting individual and community wellness initiatives, and we look forward to working with the park district to make this a memorable day for all involved."
Other News and Events
Commencement exercises are scheduled for Friday, May 10, beginning at 7 p.m. in Joseph Deaton Gymnasium. This year's Distinguished Alumnus and featured speaker will be Toby Brooks, Ph.D., a 1996 SIC graduate who is currently an assistant professor at the Texas Tech University Health Science Center in Lubbock. Additionally, the pinning ceremony for SIC nursing students will be held at 4 p.m. that day in the gym.
Rice informed the board members of continued challenges in community college funding expectations that came out of last week's ICCTA meeting and Lobby Day. The Governor's budget proposes to reduce state grants for fiscal year 2014 by five percent under fiscal year 2013 levels. The proposed reductions would come on top of several years of funding reductions, even as enrollment at community colleges continues to shine – such as Southeastern's 4 percent increase this spring. Statewide, enrollment is now nearing the record highs of 2010, but community colleges are being asked to provide more services to students, with less funding than they received 20 years ago.
The board also received a presentation on financial projections from Tim Walker, vice president of administration and business affairs. A study by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities suggested that nationwide, states are spending 28 percent less per student than they were just five years ago, and that it will be many years before states can resume funding education at pre-recession levels. Such challenges leave SIC – like all other colleges – with the choice of cutting costs, raising tuition, or a combination of both.
The board also approved an inter-district agreement with Rend Lake College that – pending that institution's board approving it as well – would link the two schools together to provide specialized oil and natural gas (ONG) training programs to meet anticipated need for skilled workers in those fields as ONG exploration ramps up throughout southern and southeastern Illinois.
Page 2 of 2 - Several of SIC's very successful competitive teams were recognized at the meeting, including Model Illinois Government, the Forensic Falcons, Shotgun team, Archery team, and Cosmetology. SIC's Student Government sponsors and leadership distributed a student activity packet to the Board.
Ellen Prince was recognized as May's SIC Spotlight Employee. Prince works as a lead preschool teacher in the Mary Jo Oldham Center for Child Study, is an SIC graduate, and has worked at the college for 18 years.
The board approved the resignation of Dan King as Outdoor Recreation and Tourism Business Specialist, Heidi Flannery as career and technical education liaison and transition coordinator, and Ashley Schultz as financial aid assistant. The board approved the employment of Jerri Harbison as a full-time math instructor, and the transfer of Jeff Kisner, automotive instructor, to the temporary position of auto maintenance specialist. Sean Jones was approved as a new adjunct physics instructor.
The meeting adjourned at 8:27 p.m.

June 19 News and Notes
Robert Cleave
June 19 2012 10:24AM
The competitive part of the NHL season has finally ended, leaving off-ice matters to dominate the news over the next couple of weeks. With in mind, it's a good time to have a look at a few items of interest concerning the Jets and the NHL. In this installment, Evander Kane and Ondrej Pavelec receive media treatment somewhat at odds with their actual performance, a look at a potential free agent target, and a slightly contrarian view of Rick Nash vs. Phil Kessel.
RFA follies:
I'll confess some bewilderment with how the local media establishment has covered Winnipeg's two prime restricted free agents over the past season. In the case of Pavelec, I'll allow Ryan Lambert to state the case in succinct fashion:
jets should get winnipeg media to foot the bill here. guy had a 2.91 gaa and .906 sv% and they acted like he was a hard-luck dryden all year
Pretty much. As I discussed last month when I examined the topic, Pavelec's play declined behind a team that cut its shots against by a decent margin from 10/11. I'm certainly willing to allow that overwork might have caught him out by the end of the year, but if Darren Dreger has the numbers right, the contract Pavelec hopes to receive is wildly out of line with his performance.
Ben Wendorf did a thorough job of covering which goalies were genuinely hard done by earlier this spring, and except on the PK, Pavelec wasn't really much of a victim. I'd be willing to give him a couple of more years for somewhere around 2-2.5 million, and then see where everything shook out from there, but 4M on a long term deal would be a non-starter if I were running the show.
In stark contrast, given the focus on Evander Kane's alleged off-ice sins, one could hardly blame people for not realizing how good his year really was for a 20 year old with another 20 year as his primary center. Since the lockout, the list of players to have scored 30 goals in a season at age 20 is both small and distinguished. Of those players, I wouldn't argue for a second that Kane might well end up being the 7th best of 7, but his performance was excellent by any reasonable standard.
It should also be noted that none of those 7 gents were the second PP option at their position in those seasons. Kane split time with Andrew Ladd playing the left side on the powerplay, despite being a more productive option than the captain, so if anything his point and goal totals might well have been suppressed by the choices Claude Noel made in terms of utilization.
An item that hasn't been discussed that much is that Kane led the NHL in 5v5 shots on goal. As a point of reference, the leaders in that category during the last 5 seasons were Ovechkin, Ovechkin, Parise, Ovechkin, and Kane. That's some fairly nice company, and considering that Evander Kane's primary center was wasn't exactly Adam Oates circa 1992, it speaks to his ability to drive offence at a very high level. Derek Zona's opinion that Kane's baseline for the next several years is 30 goals seems about right, given how productive he was with the relatively limited ice time he received in 11/12.
Of course, signing the young man might be a bit of a chore. His agent advised Illegal Curve last night that, contrary to Ren Lavoie's rumour, Kane wasn't asking out of town, at least as of this moment. Craig Oster and Chevy have plans for a chin-wag over the weekend, and even presuming that Kane feels like sticking around, I suspect the numbers coming from the player side will be fairly high. Of his aforementioned cohorts in the 30 goal club, the cheapest second contract signed by any of them was Patrice Bergeron's 4.75M a year deal, and that was in 06/07 with a cap of 44M. Even if you think Kane isn't as good as any of those players, inflation will be his friend in terms of settling on a figure. If the per season hit starts with any number less than a 5, I'll be mildly shocked.
One approach that the club might consider is waiting for a new CBA to be signed. There's been some loose talk that the clubs would prefer a structure that didn't encourage the massive second contracts we've seen since 2006, and if that's a serious bargaining point for the teams, the Jets could well save a nickel or two by being patient. That does leave open the risk of an offer sheet next month, but unless a team goes up to the level that would require 4 first rounders as compensation, I can't see the Jets not matching. Chipman and Chevaldayoff might play the small market game in public, but teams that don't need revenue sharing usually aren't hurting so badly that they'd let a high end 20 year old hit the bricks for a bunch of lottery tickets.
As a final RFA note, qualifying offers have to be out to RFAs by the end of this week, and the one RFA that's almost certain to not be qualified is Eric Fehr. His 2.2M QO would be slightly rich for a 1 goal scorer, even accepting that he's almost certainly a better player than he showed during last year's lost season. If he's back, a short term deal for 1.5M or less could be in order.
UFAs: Is an Islander on the radar?
The Jets have spent most of the last year trying to keep expectations down in terms of chasing big money UFAs, with Chevaldayoff and Chipman repeated stating that they intended to build from within. I don't doubt they're sincere, but since most top UFAs won't be interested in this market any time soon, it's also a convenient angle to take.
With that stipulated, Winnipeg's management is also pretty good at keeping schtum, so if they do plan on targeting a mid-tier UFA of any sort, they aren't likely to discuss their plans in the press. Still, one name that has popped up in the rumour mill is P.A. Parenteau. The Islanders haven't signed him and might not be interested in retaining the 29 year old, despite some pretty fancy point totals over the last two seasons.
His underlying numbers aren't that bad, either, as the winger played pretty solid comp and managed to get by, albeit with a bit of help in the ZS department. Parenteau would be someone the Jets would probably see as a potential replacement/upgrade for Kyle Wellwood as a top-six RW, but I'd advise a bit of caution for any team chasing him.
The caveat always in play with his numbers is that he rode shotgun with John Tavares and Matt Moulson over that time, which hints at some inflation of his boxcars. I'm not entirely certain he's much better than Kyle Wellwood, and frankly I'm always wary of players that come out of nowhere in their mid to late 20's, especially if that burst is while working with a superior player as a linemate. Wellwood, for whatever flaws he might have, has been an NHLer of some sort ever since the lockout, so at least you can trust his performance to have a more predictable path.
In any event, I suppose if Parenteau is cheapish on a two or three year deal he'd be worth a punt, but big money and term on a 29 year old with a red flag or two seems like a really bad idea. Of course, signing both Parenteau and Wellwood to reasonable deals would be perfectly fine, since the Jets were a couple of forwards short of a decent top nine last year when everyone was healthy, but I'm not sure that's in the cards.
Trading places:
The Leafier parts of Twitter were up in arms a few days back when a potential Rick Nash for Phil Kessel deal was mooted. That seems to have settled down, thankfully, but I'd like to expand on the point I made at the time.
I'd never advise a team to trade for Rick Nash because he has an openly terrible contract and the chances of a 28 year old turning his productivity slide are quite slim, but this idea that Phil Kessel is, as of today, a better player, seems to be open to debate. Kessel had some lovely boxcars, but he did spend last season being slightly outshot by third line comp. He's a very skilled soft minutes scorer without doubt, but 6 years into his career, he's still a player that gives up more than he makes, despite some kid gloves handling by his coaches in Toronto.
Nash, on the other hand, had a pretty difficult row to hoe last year in Columbus. Like Kessel, he was slightly outshot, but he did so facing the toughest competition his coaches could give him. It's cases like this that always remind me how important context is when assessing player performance. Without looking at who they played against, one could easily think Kessel was miles ahead.
I'm also mindful of the fact that the Western Conference as a whole is a much tougher circuit to score in, even for top players. It's hardly an accident that nine of the the league's top ten point getters played in the EC, and as much as it pains me to agree with an Oiler fan, Dennis King's assertion this winter that the East had about five good teams and bunch of super-AHL clubs making up the numbers was an accurate assessment.
In the end, I'm of the opinion that if the two players were to have swapped their exact circumstances, Phil Kessel would get torched playing power vs. power in the West to a far higher degree than Rick Nash, and that Nash would feast, in relative terms, playing the soft underbelly of the Eastern Conference. Again, I wouldn't make the swap because of Nash's age and contract, but I'm not sure Phil Kessel would help a team be any better at this particular moment, and at least for the next couple of seasons, I'd still think Nash to be a slightly better player, money aside.
That's all for today, but I'll be posting my thoughts from Pittsburgh over the weekend. I have no idea if the Jets will make any deals, but there's always action when everyone congregates for the draft, so there should be some movement afoot.
Nice job Robert.
As for the topics, here we go:
Given his true numbers that don't hint at the defense being responsible for his performance, I agree G Ondrej Pavelec cannot be overvalued and if looking for $4M per season, perhaps it's time to look elsewhere, despite his RFA status (maybe do a "sign and trade" as they call it in the NBA). At least with him the Jets have the hammer in being able to qualify him but I believe a player can reject that offer (I may be off...can you verify?)
As for Evander Kane, well the other team I follow (the Flames) can certainly use a top-scoring player but probably prefer a true Centre and I think Kane is more of a Left Winger from what I have seen. But I would certainly ask him to just grow up and do wahtever it takes to keep him in the Peg as players like him are not commonly found.
As for other free agents, well I would think:
1. Figure out if Pavelec is kept before deciding on Mason in goal seems an obvious path unless Mason somehow becomes "in demand" on July 1.
2. I think Wellwood - given his decent counting and advanced stats - is a good, not costly option that fits in Winnipeg so in favor of his return and I think potential replacement P.A. Parenteau is unlikely to come to the Peg if he can keep playing with Tavares for good $ or even play in a place like Pittsburgh with huge talent at C and less travel in the East. And I worry about his late-20s surge and his likelihood of dropping off without Tavares or a similar top- 5-in-NHL superstar centre.
3. Eric Fehr fits well in Winnipeg (or Steinbach, MB given his last name) but he needs to be signed under the qualifying offer level to be worthwhile given last year. However, good chance of rebound is there with him, perhaps helping to solve the high-end talent issues at forward.
5. Other utility forwards (Stapleton, Machecek, Glass) and low-pairing defensemen (Flood, Jones), I suggest most should probably be retained at the right price, barring a trade that bring in multiple assets at F or D. In particulr, with Machecek being youg with strong energy and potential 3rd-line upside, you keep him. And if you look at advanced stats, the Corsi for Mark Flood on defense don't look great in 33 games played last year, but at 27 he is still trying to break in and given his relative youth, you should keep him.

Winter socks used to barely close the gap between the top of your shoes and the bottom of your tights. First there were 9cm, and then Castelli's bold move to 15cm. However, the cold still found a way to leak in. But, at 20cm, the Castelli Venti Socks take warmth to new heights — literally.
To ensure warmth, Castelli constructed the Venti socks from Merino wool. Why Merino? Well, because it's a long-fiber wool that's renowned for its soft touch, breathable warmth, and moisture wicking properties. And, even though the tall-sock look seems to be a fad, this cut functions to keep your legs warmer in the winter. As a result, your feet will remain warmer as well.
As we said, the material is non-abrasive, but the benefits don't stop there. Merino wool is what we call a 'hydrophilic' fiber, meaning that it has the natural ability to positively interact with water. In fact, Merino is able to absorb as much as 30 percent of its weight before exuding the sensation of wetness. Additionally, it's naturally antimicrobial, so you'll experience next to no stink from the socks. This property is furthered by Merino's natural ability to disperse electrostatic charges. So, the Venti socks will pick up less dirt, grime, and lint in the first place.
These socks are long enough to keep cold out of the gap between your tights and shoes, and they also provide an extra layer of warmth on your lower legs. Additionally, their simple design aesthetic will look fantastic under your suit in the city.
The Castelli Venti Socks are available in color Black and in the sizes Small/Medium (35-39), Large/XX-Large (40-43), and XX-Large (44-47).

Also the shoes which got delivered are far from teal - they are more of a deep sky blue. Not a bad color though. I'll be ordering a size 10 and hoping they fit!"

No One Ever Said Sexy Was Comfortable
"Really, the only way to describe these shoes is sexy. They practically ooze sexiness. Are they comfortable? Absolutely not. Your feet will be killing you after about 2.5 minutes. But that's not the point, and I think we all know it.The point is, these are spectacularly gorgeous and your feet will look amazing in them. From the peek-a-boo cutout at the toe, to the sliver of a silver stiletto, to the unbelievable arch that your foot will be forced to endure all in the name of beauty. So is it worth it? You bet it is."

Sexy Shoe- Retro Style
"These shoes are a beautiful, rich color. More turquoise than teal. I normally wear a 7.5 but bought an 8 so could wear a gel insert to add padding for more comfort. You won't be running for miles in these shoes, but your legs look like they go on for miles in these!"

"This shoe is sexy. Order a size up. Color is more like neon teal in person. Color is bright but sexy heel for sure! Must have for shoe collection."
