Skip to comments.Howie Carr thread week of Dec. 7, 2008
Posted on 12/06/2008 8:52:33 PM PST by raccoonradio
Howie thread for the week; I'll post his column once it goes up on Herald site.
Once Howie's column goes up I'll post it (if not tonight, then early tomorrow).
Noticed via Wikipedia that Howard Louis Carr Sr. died at the age of 103 on October 1 of this year.
I can't remember if Howie mentioned it on air, though he may have taken a trip shortly after this
to N.C. for the funeral (Columbus Day weekend):
Howie has mentioned his parents from time to time on air; his Dad was about 47 years older than Howie
(born in 1905 while Howie Jr. was born in '52). Quite a long time to be on this Earth. I think Howie worked
for his father at a hotel down in Florida, for a time...
>> GREENSBORO - Mr. Howard Louis "Del" Carr, Sr., 103, died Wednesday, October 1, 2008, at Wesley Long Hospital.
A funeral Mass will be held at 10 a.m. Monday, October 13, at Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church.
Mr. Carr was born in Portland, Maine, on January 11, 1905, and graduated from Portland High School in 1924. He spent most of his professional life in resort hotel management, along with service in the Army Air Force in World War II, and with Burlington Industries in the 1940's.
Mr. Carr came out of retirement in 1977 to assist Mr. Joseph M. Bryan, Sr. of Greensboro, until Mr. Bryan's death in 1995.
In recent years, Mr. Carr took great enjoyment in remaining active, going out to lunch almost every day in his wheelchair, accompanied by his son, Jonathan.
Surviving are his wife of 65 years, Frances; two sons, Jonathan Sutton Carr of Greensboro and Howard Louis Carr, Jr. of Wellesley, Mass.; and five grandchildren, Suzanna, Frances, Charlotte, Carolyn, and Christina.
(btw I believe the first two names mentioned are Howie's kids from his first marriage. We're familiar with the children he has with Kathy, Tina, Charlotte, and Carolyn...)
103 years old! He came out of retirement at 72 and worked until he was 90? Wow.
It sounds like Mr. Carr had a wonderful life.
May he rest in peace.
Agreed...Howie had mentioned on air he kept driving into
his 90s, or maybe there was a point where he gave it up.
I'm 10 yrs younger than Howie (I was born in 1962) and my Dad is 41 yrs older than me (born in 1921). My Dad can't drive anymore so I and my siblings take turns going down to the Cape to help him shop, take stuff to the dump, etc. And here
was Howie's father, living to be over the century mark..R.I.P.
Mom is 78 and mostly gave up driving (her own wise decision!) so my brothers and I constantly let her know that somebody is always available to take her shopping or anywhere else she needs to go.
I thought it was "Howahd LAHWRENCE Cahhhr."
I don't know the complete story of how it started on the radio, but Howie's real middle name is Louis, not Lawrence. Howie continues to pretend that his real middle name is Lawrence.
VB started that rumor
Seize the pay... of bloated hacks
Carpe per diem!
By Howie Carr | Sunday, December 7, 2008 | http://www.bostonherald.com
So its up to Gov. Deval Patrick to decide how much of a pay raise the Legislature gets next month.
Forget the bogus mathematical formulas, Gov - give the solons the hike they so richly deserve.
Nothing. Zero. Nada. The goose egg. The doughnut. Bupkes.
According to the law - admittedly, a laughable word to use when discussing the Legislature - the solons must get a raise based on the previous years median household income in the state.
Most people who dont have hack jobs took a pounding this year. But the actual 2008 income stats wont be available for months. So the governor and his Payroll Charlies who make the call have to . . . wing it.
On second thought, Deval, dont just freeze the legislators pay. Cut it. Make them feel our pain.
Im not saying every solon is a drunken, corrupt buffoon. Its that 90 percent that give the other 10 percent such a bad rap. Wilkerson, Marzilli, DiMasi, Rogers, Spellane - its been another banner year for ethics on Beacon Hill, yes?
Already these dolts are paid a base of $58,237.15, plus bonuses for their alleged roles in leadership. Every year more and more of these bums get bought off with that extra $7,500 that can be removed at the whim of the speaker, who also grabs an extra $35,000.
But theres more. All the reps who live more than 50 miles from Beacon Hill - a third of them - get to take more than $150 a day off their federal income taxes for every day the Legislature is in session. This is why they so seldom adjourn. It would require them to pay taxes like the rest of us do.
And dont forget another cash perk, their per diems, the money they collect for showing up to work each day (or just saying they do, on their cheat sheets).
The per-diem rate goes up the further you live from the State House. If you live in Boston or Somerville, you get $10 a day. Weymouth is $18, Worcester is $36, and so on, all the way up to $100 for Nantucket.
Do you get paid extra for actually showing up at your job? I didnt think so. So far this year, Rep. Dan Bosley has collected $15,390 just in per diems. In second place is Rep. Denis Guyer, with $10,824.
But wait, it gets better. Some of these statesmen are collecting per diems, then charging their traveling expenses to their campaign committees. In the real world, thats called double-dipping.
What a great country. They get a pay raise, and their constituents get to pay $7.50 every time they drive through the harbor tunnels. And the guy who gets to make the call on how much extra the reps get is Deval Patrick, who in 2006 promised everyone he would cut their property taxes - how much has your bill gone down?
Bah, humbug!

howie's talkin about Dick Mel.Blago married his daughter.
Hell , if you indict Blago over the Banco America blackmail deal,wouldn't you have to indict Frank and andrew Coumo over Fannie Mae?

King Con Blago puts our hacks to shame
By Howie Carr | Wednesday, December 10, 2008 | http://www.bostonherald.com
You know that proposal to change back the law on open Senate seats in Massachusetts so the governor gets the right to fill any vacancy - never mind!
Even the dimmest hack in the Legislature would not want to be recorded as voting in favor of what would now be known as the Blagojevich bill. The ink was barely dry on the criminal complaint yesterday before Sen. Dick Durbin was demanding the Illinois Assembly change their states Senate succession law to make it like ours - with a special election within 60 days.
Sorry, Deval. Your homeboys messed it up big time for you. He might as well have put Baracks Senate seat up for sale on eBay. Those North Side guys cant do anything right - just ask Al Capone.
We in Boston take such great pride in our municipal corruption, but we are mere pikers compared to this crime spree, as the U.S. attorney described it. Illinois big-time crooked governors trump our small-time crooked House speakers. Obama said he wanted to hit the ground running - who knew he was talking about scandals? And by the way, how can the Democrats call Patrick Fitzgerald a hack? How can they accuse this prosecutor of a political vendetta? This is the guy who convicted Scooter Libby.
Do you think U.S. Attorney Fitzgerald has job security in the new Democrat administration?
What a difference between Boston and Chicago. We have a state senator who stuffs cash into her bra; they have a governor putting a U.S. Senate seat out for bids.
In Chicago, its pay to play. In Boston, its pay to Playtex.
This guy Blagojevich - did you see him at the window factory in Chicago on Monday with the laid-off workers? Black turtleneck, black leather jacket. He looked like Joe Pesci as Tony the Ant Spilotro in Casino.
Memo to Gov. Blagojevich: Dress like the governor, not like the governors bagman.
This guy is an embarrassment. Forget Abe Lincoln rolling over in his grave - Sal DiMasi and John Rogers are stunned by his shocking lack of professionalism. This is so bad even Blagos fellow Crook County Democrats kicked him to the curb like he was . . . a Republican.
Dont make no waves, dont back no losers. Those are the rules in Chicago, and Blago broke em.
I was in Chicago last month, and everyone was speculating how soon the governor would be indicted. Everybody knew, but Blagojevich just kept wheeling and dealing, with his office bugged, throwing out more f-bombs than Larry Baione when he was drunk with Ralphie Chong on North Margin Street. Blago wondered aloud whether he would have more juice as an indicted senator than as indicted governor. He schemed to have editorial writers fired from a dying newspaper that just went into bankruptcy.
Editorial writers!
Last question: Who will be the first con pardoned by President Obama? Too late to get in a bet in Vegas - that ones off the board.

WRKO stays tuned in to Tom Finneran
Poor ratings dont stop 2009 contract
By Jessica Heslam / MediaBiz | Thursday, December 11, 2008 | http://www.bostonherald.com
Despite lousy ratings over the past two years, WRKO radio has extended Tom Finnerans morning-drive show for another year, the station confirmed last night.
Finneran had inked a two-year deal with an option to extend it another year and the station has exercised that option, said WRKO-AM (680) program director Jason Wolfe.
Sources say the station is keeping Finneran around because they want to make a play for WTKK-FM (96.9) duo Jim Braude and Margery Eagan and are waiting for their contract to run out. The pair is under contract with competing WTKK for at least another year.
While Finnerans name has gotten WRKO a lot of publicity, his program has yet to break into the top 10 local radio shows in that critical time slot.
Since it debuted in February 2007, Finnerans show has floundered in 15th and 16th place among the coveted 25- to 54-year-old listeners. One of his better ratings books was last spring, when his show placed 14th with a 2.4 share in that demographic. The show has fallen as low as 18th place.
The fall ratings period, which ended yesterday and included the November election, could decide Finnerans future in radio beyond next year. Finneran appears to be readying for his next gig and launched his own lobbying business earlier this year.
WRKO has propped up the ex-pol with a roster of rotating co-hosts and the current lineup includes Wendy Murphy, Todd Feinburg, Warren Tolman, Holly Robichaud and Mariellen Burns. Sources say Feinburg could be made Finnerans permanent co-host next year.
Marjorie Clapprood, another co-host, hasnt been on the show since last month after being told that the station wanted to try something different and mix it up.
Finnerans lack of listeners isnt WRKOs only problem. The New York Stock Exchange is threatening to delist station owner Entercom because the companys stock price has plunged below a dollar.
Finneran didnt return a call.

Moonbats in the Morning? Ugh!
The Radio Hall of Fame, which just inducted Howie, is part of the Museum of Broadcast Communications. It's headed by Bruce
Dumont, who personally called Howie on-air earlier this year
to inform him of his induction. Gov Blago promised funding for a new HQ for radio hall of fame, etc. but it never came—
politics involved? See below (also note that the RHOF
inducted James Dobson/Focus on Family as well this year,
a very controversial decision [note though that the _public_
voted in Dobson!]), another reason Blago probably wouldn't
support giving funding to MBC/RHOF...
Geez, bring back Clapprood and Whitley while you're at it!
(Though the article says that Marge probably won't be part
of the FelonMan morning show anymore...)
There was a time when Clapprood had a Sunday night show on
Lifetime and I noted at the time that "on Sunday nights,
your TV actually has TWO raspy voiced, big-haired Marges..."
(the other being Mrs. Homer Simpson :) )

Feds subpoena Chuck Turners wife
By Edward Mason | Thursday, December 11, 2008 | http://www.bostonherald.com | Local Politics
The wife of indicted City Councilor Chuck Turner has been subpoenaed, possibly as part of a federal corruption probe into alleged bribery in Boston.
Terri Small-Turner was subpoenaed in her capacity as treasurer of her husbands City Council campaign committee, according to a press release from Turners campaign.
Small-Turner was asked to turn over all campaign documents for the past four years, the statement reads.
A spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorneys office could not be immediately reached.
Turner, 68, pleaded not guilty yesterday to conspiracy, extortion and false statement charges connected to an alleged bid to receive cash in exchange for securing a liquor license for a Roxbury nightclub owner.
Turner yesterday told the Herald the photos released by the FBI to the media allegedly showing him taking cash may have been doctored. He also said the $1,000 the feds charge was a bribe may have been an excessive campaign contribution.
Tuners campaign committee released the news of his wife being subpoenaed in advance of a press conference tomorrow at the federal courthouse in Boston.
OMG! How pathetic do you have to be that Warren Tolman is considered a "prop"???? ;-)
Fri column ping. btw yesterday Howie said if you want a good book about Chicago politics, focusing on Mayor Daley (the
first one), check out "Boss" by the late Mike Royko. Actually I did wind up borrowing a copy of that from the library
the other day, and am almost done with it.
South Boston hacks cash in on conventional wisdom
By Howie Carr | Friday, December 12, 2008 | http://www.bostonherald.com | Columnists
Did someone say nationwide search?
Today the Hack Hotline peruses the latest public payroll to be posted on the Herald Web site - that of the Mass. Convention Center Authority (MCCA).
The executive director of the MCCA is Jim Rooney, who makes a mere $369,292 a year. Thank God he doesnt have to survive just on that, though - he also collects a $70,000 annual pension from the MBTA, where he put in his full 23 years before retiring.
There are three other Rooneys on the MCCA payroll, but surprisingly, only one of them is Rooneys brother. That would be Joe Rooney, a maintenance systems manager making $70,609 a year. When Joe Rooney was hired by the MCCA in May 2004, his brother Jim was not the executive director - he was the acting executive director.
Whew, thats a load off.
The MCCA flack e-mailed me: Please note that Joe Rooney is a brain injury survivor . . . There are two management levels between Joe Rooney and the Executive Director.
The MCCA has always been a Southie hackerama, and the congressman from Southie is Steve Lynch. Lynch used to have an aide named Fred Peterson. Would you care to guess where Fred Peterson is now employed? Thats right. He is the deputy coo, whatever that means, for $119,467. Well, coo-coo-ka-choo.
The only mayor ever to come from South Boston was Ray Flynn, and he used to have a coatholder named Ken Sinkiewicz. Kenny migrated from City Hall and now makes $143,276 a year as deputy director.
The current mayor is Mumbles Menino, and his top political aide is one Mike Kineavy, who made $141,778.89 last year. Mikes 70-something mom Ann is on the MCCA payroll as a guest services associate. Only made $2,208.97, which aint much, obviously, but any port in a storm, right, Ma?
Listed on the MCCA payroll, but apparently no longer employed there, is one Pauline Bare. Her husband Michael Bare is on the MBTA payroll. So I looked him up to check his salary ($74,500.10) and - surprise, surprise - guess who else I saw on the T with that same last name? None other than Pauline Bare, for $45,890.
Michael Bare is best known around Southie for driving a sign truck for City Councilor Mike Flaherty in election years. Back in 2006, that truck was festooned with Kerry Healey signs, which seems only right, considering how GOP governors appointed Baby Flats dad (an ex-solon) to a judgeship and his sister to the clerkship of the South Boston District Court.
You can check out the MCCA payroll yourself at bostonherald.com. Its under, Your Tax Dollars at Work, although a more accurate description might be, Your Tax Dollars at Play.

By Brad Locke/NEMS Daily Journal
STARKVILLE – Ally McDonald and Chad Ramey are no longer technically teammates, but they're still friends, they're playing for the same school, and they're both still doing big things.
McDonald and Ramey are leading their respective Mississippi State golf teams into SEC Championship play this weekend, with both events starting today. The women are playing at Birmingham's Greystone Country Club, while the men are at the Sea Island Golf Course in St. Simons Island, Ga.
It wasn't too long ago that McDonald, a sophomore, and Ramey, a junior, were winning state championships together for Itawamba AHS in Fulton. There was no girls team, so McDonald played with the boys and more than held her own.
not settling
"I really wanted to prove people wrong, that I could play with the boys and compete, because just playing with them is not proving anything," McDonald said.
She's carried that chip on her shoulder to MSU and is now among the SEC's best.
McDonald has led the Lady Bulldogs to nine consecutive top-10 finishes, and she has recorded a top five in four of her last six events. McDonald's scoring average of 72.41 ranks third in the SEC and 17th nationally, and she's on pace to set a single-season school record.
As for Ramey, he has a team-best 72.03 scoring average and won Auburn's Tiger Invitational last month. The Bulldogs have won three of their last four tournaments, including a sudden-death playoff win over UAB at the inaugural Old Waverly Collegiate Championship in West Point last week.
"I feel like we still haven't played to our full potential yet, but we're getting there, I believe," Ramey said.
Both McDonald and Ramey qualified for the NCAA regionals last year, and both have designs on going there again and then going beyond, to nationals. They feel they belong among the nation's elite.
"I can compete at the national level," McDonald said. "With SECs coming up this following weekend, if I didn't expect to win, then there would be no point in going to compete."
Said Ramey, "It's just a matter of going out there and doing what I have to do to do it, but I know I'm very capable of doing it now, because I've kind of proved it this semester."
The two have held these sort of high expectations of themselves for years. They knew each other before joining forces at IAHS, having used the same teaching pro at Old Waverly, V.J. Trolio. It's hard to keep in touch as much these days, even being on the same campus, because their schedules are so different.
But they play together during the summer, and that Fulton connection is a strong one.
"We see each other from time to time," McDonald said. "Chad's doing really well, and it's cool to experience this together."

Ralph Krueger shuffles his lines; VandeVelde recalled
Jonathan Willis
February 08 2013 11:24AM
The Edmonton Oilers made their first significant shuffle to the forward lines in practice this morning. They also added Chris VandeVelde from Oklahoma to replace the injured Anton Lander.
The New Lines
#Oilers lines at skate in Leduc: Hall-Gagner-Hemsky, Hartikainen-RNH-Eberle, Eager-Smyth-Petrell, Yakupov-Belanger-Paajarvi— Edmonton Oilers (@EdmontonOilers) February 8, 2013
On defence, Potter, Fistric and Whitney are rotating through drills together with Smid-Petry and NSchultz-JSchultz still together— Edmonton Oilers (@EdmontonOilers) February 8, 2013
- The first thing to keep in mind: Friday's opponent is Detroit, which means that the Oilers needed to have two strong lines to match up against the Datsyuk and Zetterberg lines. In a lot of ways, this rotation to me looks like a way to spread out the wealth for road games against teams with a deep group of forwards.
- Obviously, if Sam Gagner and Ales Hemsky are expected to perform in a power-vs.-power role, they weren't going to do it with Yakupov. Taylor Hall is a more rounded player and at this stage of his career certainly a far superior possession player than the Russian rookie. Moving Hall to that line makes it much more difficult to play against.
- Hartikainen joining Nugent-Hopkins and Eberle is something that's been talked about for quite some time; he adds size to that line but more importantly he's going to be a good fit in the offensive zone. This is a line that's likely still going to face relatively tough competition - especially against Detroit - and it will be interesting to see how they handle it, particularly given that Nugent-Hopkins is likely less than 100%. I'll also be curious to see how often Yakupov gets spotted in place of Hartikainen on this line.
- I'm also curious to see whether the third or fourth line gets more ice-time against the Wings. Despite the fact that Yakupov's on the nominal fourth line, I'd be surprised if the two units weren't used roughly the same amount - Eager's just coming off a concussion and Smyth is playing centre, so that third line is less than ideal; on the other hand, VandeVelde is likely to initially slot in for Belanger on line four.
- With special teams taken into account, I imagine the Oilers' top two lines get roughly the same amount of ice-time (with Hall leading the way) because I expect we'll see Nugent-Hopkins, Eberle, and Hartikainen still forming the core of the first power play unit. For that matter, Yakupov's bound to continue to see time on the power play, too.
- Looks like Smyth/Petrell and VandeVelde/Paajarvi are the natural primary penalty-killing pairings up front.
All things considered, these line changes strike me as pretty sensible - they fit with the situation and with Krueger's commitment to balance.
One last word, from the coach:
"Once VandeVelde gets here, we'll make the final decision. Those lines could change tomorrow." - Krueger on today's fwd configurations— Edmonton Oilers (@EdmontonOilers) February 8, 2013

February 09 2013, 06:48AM
I will try to stay optimistic about these line shuffles and wait for the results, if this does not work, sorry to say, but it would be time for the management to make some moves. This season so far is starting to look like the last two and is becoming the pre cursor of explaining the definition of insanity. We are definately too soft, our defense needs help and our young guys need some room on the ice. It sucks watching 6 guys out of a full roster be the only contributors game in, game out for the last two-three years!
February 09 2013, 08:44AM
We must be watching two different versions of Smyth. I don't see how he would be able to keep up with the speed of RNH and Eberle. And his hands are brutal...can't make a tape-to-tape pass at all and really has been a giveaway machine so far this year. I would not reward his play by putting him on the top line. Hartikainen at least has earned more playing time this year.
I'm watching Smyth do whatever is asked of him. Which has mostly been PK and playing on a shutdown/checking line. He's playing his role. Plain and simple. Read game reviews from Willis and McCurdy and they mostly say the same thing...simple, honest game. Don't hate on the guy cuz he's not scoring when teamed with Petrell and Horcoff! Smytty's an old dog, throw him a bone and he'll go after it. He's still got the skills to play in front of the net, and still has the skills to dig the puck out of the corner. He can play a simple game to complement RNH/Ebs, which is something they need when struggling to put the puck in the net. No disrespect to Hartikainen, I still see him on the other PP unit and eventually top-6 minutes, but I think #94 could be effective offensively given the chance. Flipside to that is, he's way more effective defensively than Hartikainen, so depends which resource Kreuger needs.

"That's my biggest annoyance with people who want to replace Sam Gagner: who do you replace him WITH? I agree a bigger, faster centre would be better for the team. Find me that guy and I'll personally drive Sam to the airport. Until then, what's the benefit in trading him? Y'all want to watch Yakupov play with Belanger?"
From now on...anyone who says we should trade Gagner should have to show us the deal they have in mind.
We can all agree with Gagner for Jordan Stahl...but this just move Gagner crap with no alternative is just that....crap.
So....to those who want to trade Gagner....let's see what you've got.
I'm sure Oilers Nation will let you know the merits of your proposal!
February 09 2013, 04:46PM
Bad. Bad. Not good. Goodbye to Yakupov's offence.
Yakupovs young....he'll get over it....he still gets second line PP time.
Besides....J Schultz is our candidate for Rookie of the Year.....
We've GOT to get that chant going in our barn everytime he does something spectacular!
February 09 2013, 04:56PM
I like it.
1) Reminds of the Good Old Days with pairings Gretzky/Kurri Messier/Anderson etc Plug in whoever you want on the other wing.
( so cool how much Hall looks like a young Messier at times and RNH has a flash here and there of Gretzky in him. J Schultz - Coffee, Harti - Tikanen Eberle - Anderson....probably taking it little too far...but its fun).
2) Gives you the chance to elevate to another level by putting Hall, Nuge and Ebbs out there together when you need to change the pace of the game or get that game winner with 60 seconds left to play.
Just Keep the DUOS together. (For me the Duos should eventually (once we trade for/draft another center) be Nuge/Eberle Hall/Hemsky Gagner/Yak)
February 09 2013, 05:00PM
@ryanchett: I'm sure Chicago would love to have Sam Gagner and Patrick Kane re-united. To have that pairing behind Toews-Hossa...wow!
you see.....
Gagner/Kane Toews/Hossa
February 09 2013, 05:02PM
These forward lines look like a dog's breakfast. Although this isn't the same Detroit Redwings that were long-time SC contenders, once the first puck is dropped I'm sure Krueger will switch the third and fourth lines around. Surprised that Whitney will be dressed, expect he will be the 7th D.
Thought Whitney played better today

I wonder what everyone here would have said if Hall or RNH got demoted thier first year?
With the way people reacted to the benching of the kids and not playing the kids the most TOI I'm guessing not well.
So far, the Oilers haven't put Yakupov in a position to succeed or at the very least sheltered him, it's been sink or swim.
Hartikainen on the second line is a joke I don't get, WTF has he done to warrant a top 6 role? I don't care if he crashes or bang, goes after lose pucks or not.
He can't score let alone score 5x5 were the Oilers need it the most. Then reward him with PP time, how many goals or assists has he generated there.
This is complete bush, then again what do you expect from the last place team 3 years running.
Screw it, lets see what Khabibulin can do while there at it.
This is clearly a defensive move by a defensive coaching staff.
This will not end well.
Have to give you credit for the "Will not End Well" part......because it did not end well.
As for the rest of it.....I pretty much disagree with everything you said.
YAKs situation looks good to me... Harti's situation looks good to me... Habby played great (Second Star)....
But like I said....I do give you your cudos for "Did not end Well".

Hartikainen has passed Smyth in their respective abilities to play in front of the net. Smyth was the man, but the torch has been passed.
Agreed.....but only because of age....Smyth is still more skilled and wiley....just slower.... Harti is on his way up and Smitty is an excellent third liner.
February 09 2013, 05:26PM
I'm glad Vandevelde is coming up, should have been him instead of Arcobello! This kid is seriously strong, probably never get many pts but very strong in corners, pk & dot! He's also a smart player, like this move!
Nice to get a look at the OKC talent as call ups. Really gives you some insight into how well the management team knows the skill levels and what to expect from these players.
Tells you that there are probably no hidden gems wasting away in OKC....including the likes of Vandevelde, Pitlik, Tuebert, Arcebello, etc.
February 09 2013, 05:35PM
Your kidding right............the game of hockey is based on scoring more goals then your oppositions.
Now, think about who is actually creating space out there, and for whom, if you think Hartikainen is the one creating the room then your grossly over estimating Hartikainen and under estimating Eberle and RNH.
As for screening a goalie, you could get Eager to do the same thing, does that mean he's qualified to be in the top six or on the PP?
You get back to me after this weekend and will discuss the effects of Hartikainen.
I don't think its a case of Harti freeing up MORE space for Nuge and Ebbs.....its more a matter of.....Can Harti fit in on the line, hold his own, and wreak a little havoc around the net.......While at the same time allowing us to create some balanced scoring across more lines with Hall, Gagner and Hemsky playing together.
If Hartikinan doesn't look too out of place (don't forget he's young and he's new at it) then it could pay dividends.
Arcebello......looked out of place.

At a Freedom Salute Ceremony last December, the soldiers of Alpha Company, Second Battalion, 211th Aviation of the Utah National Guard at West Jordan, were recognized for their hard work and support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
At the ceremony, 48 soldiers received the Freedom Salute Award to publicly acknowledge their service from March 2006 to August 2007.
They were awarded a commemorative flag with case, a Defender of Freedom certificate, lapel pins and a commemorative coin. Soldiers also received individual medals for actions while deployed.
First Sgt. Thayne Rex Randall, was honored with the Bronze Star, Joint Service Achievement medal, and the Air Medal.
Randall, the highest ranked enlisted member of the company, or TOPS as they call him, has served with the Utah National Guard for 21 years.
"When we came together as a company, we has six months to train and get to know each other," said Randall first sergeant of Alpha Company. "We deployed to Ft. Hood, Texas in March 2006, where we spent six months training and preparing for our year long deployment to Iraq. We are a very tight group."
The company provided troop and equipment movement support from their base in Balad, Iraq. During their time away, Alpha Company flew more than 6,200 combat flight hours, conducted 111 air assault missions, and more than 700 missions overall.
Rex, a graduate of Emery High School, is the son of Larry and Carolyn Randall of Elmo and resides in West Jordan with his wife Lydia.

So Comfortable!
"I wear a 7N and this boot fits perfect in a 7N. Very true to size. The suede is a beautiful black and uniform in color. The platform in the front makes it very comfortable. The boot can be worn with anything from jeans to dresses. The silver buckle on the side is classy and not cheap looking at all. I love this boot! I wish they had it in black leather too. Highly recommend!"

So as anything I've ever theorized for bleach, im wanting to purpose that ichigo is a being of true and purest power.
ichigo naturally is to be cloaked in power, be physically strong, fast, and have a basic blast abilities, where the main variations are just a matter of intensity. I suggest the solution to the representation of powers that he does have.
he is human with spiritual back grounds, and im not talking about just his father, im talking about being able to interact with spirits. as to why it probably is due to his father but this ability is only to lead to the "blossoming" of his other abilities.
he interacts with a shinigami, this isnt a big deal but it becomes one when that shinigami gives him power. abilities grown and adapted to the situation.
he killed and fought hollows, i think at this point his hollow self was beginning to manifest, tho not expressing itself until he is forced to acquire his powers again and awaken the monster that is in him. this stage was very unstable.
He goes to the spiritual world where he fights many people stronger then he, but seemingly is able to topple, and even become much much stronger then any, almost each and every time he fought, no matter how much power was exrpessed against him, it would only make him grow to express more. his shinigami stage is becoming more and more developed, but his hollow stage is lacking hollow interaction and so is only able to grow in a very simple but effective manner. however hollow self is increasingly unstable.
aizen is found out. ichigo must encounter being that are no longer purely shinigami (vizards) or hollow (arrancar) the former showing to him a manner to control ones hollow self. something to note here is that ichigo IS NOT a vizard. vizards where experiments, where as ichigo was a natural means for a human to acquire similar powers. the latter of the two (arrancar) showed ichigo a control of the rampant power in a different way, and so his hollow abilities grew and began to balance out more or less with his shinigami powers.
another note: ichigos power advancments generally where advanced while challenging or being challenged by others with similar powers.
aizen fight. the final getsuga is an instant expression of all his powers thus far, and an expression of the powers against him in terms of his own powers, in turn for a "system reset".
ichigo loses powers but gains new powers and only expresses those new powers ( which fundamentally are the same powers but with new "core" which was fullbring) ichigo is not a fullbringer as he does have the initial cause to becoming a fullbringer. he just replicates the power in his own terms.
He loses those powers, but not to long after is given his shinigami powers again in the same manner he got them, but just more. his shinigami abilities are better then they where before but we haven't seen his hollow powers. reason being is he hasnt had enough interaction with hollow like being to redevelop them. however he does still have fullbring powers as he is still in combat with them, and not all of it was taken. thus fullbring powers and shinigami powers are blended together
one can theorize that his fullbring powers are a re-expression of his hollow powers tho in a much more stable form.
with his powers as basic as they are, he is a being that can only express power in similar fashions to what he has encountered/ or fought. when powers are lost he is able to awaken a new and stronger form of what once was his powers.
I think that this new arc will give ichigo a chance to redevelop his hollow powers even more in to a more stable form. the quincy seem to be well organized and controlled, and i believe that the more we see of them, the more this statement will be confirmed, and ichigo powers will develop in kind.

I don't believe that I should have had my tonsils, adenoids and appendix taken out merely because I reached a certain age or become of an inadequate diagnosis.
I didn't have an irregular heartbeat as was diagnosed when I was in the Air Force either. Nobody's perfect, not even the Air Force.
Socialized medicine couldn't cure my bad cold when I lived in England either.

Medicare isn't so bad. Most people like it, but it's not perfect? Neither is Affordable Health Care, "Obamcare". But we aren't there yet.
What about education, is it perfect? Not yet? Is anything else perfect? I'm thinking of Congress and the debt ceilings and election lines and income taxes, processes we've been working on for some time.
Are we there yet?

By Steve Hunt
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – After spending the past two years overseas, Jarvis Varnado returned stateside and has already made his presence felt in the NBA Development League.
In his first week with Sioux Falls, the former Mississippi State forward averaged 15.7 points, 9.3 rebounds and 5.7 blocks to earn NBA D-League Performer of the Week honors.
Skyforce head coach Joel Abelson has been working with Varnado for a short time but is impressed with what he's seen thus far. "He's an absolute pleasure to coach," Abelson said. "When I was trying to get him to come here, he said 'I don't really care too much about touches and shots. I just want to be the best shot blocker, defender and rebounder in the league.'
"He just plays hard, doesn't complain and affects the game every time he's in the game."
After earning SEC Defensive Player of the Year honors three times and going in the second round of the 2010 NBA Draft to Miami, Varnado then played in Italy and Israel, He also spent training camp with the Heat before securing a spot in the D-League.
"Overseas was a learning experience. It was a good experience," he said. "It grew me up and allowed me to work on my game because we usually had two practices a day. I used that time to really improve my game and offensive skills."
Along with Renardo Sidney, who is with the Los Angeles D-Fenders, Varnado is one of two MSU products in the D-League. Their ultimate goal is reaching the NBA, where fellow ex-Bulldog Arnett Moultrie is with Philadelphia.
"Renardo Sidney is a talented player … he's going to be in that NBA one day," he said. "Moultrie is a great player – mobile and can shoot a little bit. I'm just happy to see a fellow Mississippi State player in the NBA. Hopefully we can get a few more guys in there, including myself."
But until he gets that highly-coveted call-up, he's going to keep his approach simple.
"That's what guys (in this league) get caught up in, trying to do too much," he said. "I know I'm a rebounder and a shot blocker. So I try to do that to the best of my ability as well as still trying to improve on my offensive game. I won't go away from what got me drafted and what got me here."

Strike King Bleeding Elite Buzzbait
For an awesome buzzbait, look no further than these Elite Bleeding Buzzbaits, the Bleeding Bait Elite Buzzbait feature holes in the blade to create a "gurgle" type noise and leaves a bubble trail on the surface. The exclusive Grass Cone helps keep the blade clear of obstructions, and the long shank hook leaves extra space between the point and the blade for better hook-ups.

Customer Reviews
Comments: One of my favorite buzz baits by far! I was fishing buzzbaits with my friends and they had some clacking fast running buzzbait so i decided to throw this one one. First cast caught a 4 pounder. Comes to the top fast and has a fairly slow retrieval with a good amount of water movement. Bass love em'
From: JC: Sebring,FL
Comments: overall a great buzzbait just needs a little tuning to get it to run straight.
From: Austin: IN
Comments: ya ll can say what you want , but my 12 year old caught a 9.76 pound bass on one of these .
From: John: Ashdown, AR
Comments: Good bait. Caught a nice 4 pounder first time I used it. I agree about the comments about being able to slow your retrieve.
From: Kirk: Shenandoah, VA
Comments: I give it 4 outa 5 stars! Not a bad buzzbait, but it needs some tunning out of the box to get it to run straight. Works better when reeled slow, if you reel it to fast it starts to roll on its side. Caught a nice 5 pounder on it.. not as big as I'm used to in Fl, but a big fish for Northern Wisconsin.
From: Sam: Shawano, WI
Comments:This bait is great, you can slow crawl it. I thought I would have to wind it fast to keep it on the top, that is not the case you can crawl it slow. One of the best buzz baits I have ever fished. It is also very weedless.
From:Greg: Stockton, Ca

Turn the pumpkin making into a family affair! Have one person roll the cheese into balls and another shape the balls into pumpkins, while someone else can dip the pumpkins in peanuts and insert the pretzel. It's easy to double the recipe, so make as many as you'd like!
The texture or firmness of cold pack cheese food can vary from brand to brand. Buy two brands, use the firmer one for pumpkins and snack on the softer one while making them!

Meh.. The hunters looks strong at the start as always but we all know they gonna disappoint in the end. I don't really like the ending as well.
sig made by me
So the Eternal Flame is eternal, because it radiates a light that make you young and thus potentially immortal ? Perhaps it is not even a flame in the first place, not to mention that it works even when frozen (make sense, otherwise the giants would die right after the ice is melted IIRC) ? Or is it that the ice is normal, but the Flame keeps it eternally young and thus unchanging ?
Hiro, keep your head on straight -_-. Jeez... he acts like a child molester ever time he sees a kid. Anyway, love the sniper, I always find sniper battles really cool and really rare in Manga. Even One Piece doesn't have many, and one of their main characters is a sniper -_-. My personal favorite sniper battle was Neji vs Kidomaru from Naruto, but I doubt this fight will be anywhere close to that.... Sad -_-.
Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
I actually kind of like this fight, its going to be magic users vs non-magic users. It should be pretty impressive. If anything it should teach Natsu and Gray that they need to think out of the box and not always rely on their magic or something.
I do like that they went back to the original cover stories about the magicians and their brief profiles nice to see. Sting is the weakest master I think we've seen, might even be worse than Jose lol
A pie in the sky?
The weakest master weve seen was definitely the wind dude from the first arc. But yeah Sting would be up there in not so skilled masters.
Now I'm curious as to what actually happened. Maybe an ice dragon?
BTW, I realized that the Monster Tamer in previous chapter might face FT's Doll User. Seeing as the Dark Guild is named Succubus Eye, it might even aim at FT's Magic Eye users.
I also realized that the big mountain itself, is likely the Eternal Flame (you can notice it by it's shape ).

A collection of recent projects from creative technologist Ben Kirman.
I specialise in the design and implementation of interactive playful experiences that interfere with the edges of technology, culture and sensibility. I'm interested in the application of playful design to create unusual and challenging social and locative experiences in ways that are critical, provocative, irreverent and, most importantly, fun.
As an academic, I teach game and interaction design theory and do quantitative and qualitative research with playful technologies. I publish extensively in the fields of Human-Computer Interaction, Game Studies and Entertainment Technology, however have developed a reputation for not taking it too seriously.
My work has often been covered by traditional media, including the BBC, New Scientist, Wired, The Guardian, TIME, Metro, the New York Times, the Lincolnshire Echo and even Your Cat magazine.
I'm always interested in possible collaborations, workshops, talks, articles and any other distractions. Please get in touch.

Well, The Science & Entertainment Exchange has been up and running for almost a year now. And so far, The Exchange has done a remarkable job of connecting the great minds of science with the great minds of TV and film! Of course, that "great minds of TV and film" list isn't exactly phonebook length. So having pretty much exhausted that pool, The Exchange has now begun pairing brilliant scientists with the "reasonably competent" minds of TV and film, and will soon move on to the "mildly unstable" minds of TV and film. Or so they've promised me.
But there's still plenty more work to be done! Which annoys me because frankly, when I attack a problem I expect to solve it quickly, like we did with that whole health care brouhaha. So if The Exchange really wants to fulfill its mission and improve the way science and scientists are depicted in popular entertainment (obviously I mean "popular" from a sociological perspective – I'm certainly not implying that anybody enjoys it) then we must reassess. Reassess. That second one was for emphasis.
What if we're approaching the whole thing backward? Putting the cart before the chicken or the egg? Actually, before is probably best because otherwise the cart runs over both of them. I mean, I guess the chicken could get away but more likely it sacrifices itself trying to save the egg … or it doesn't, but then spends the rest of its life haunted by the cart incident and plotting revenge! See? Internal conflict. Which is exactly what I'm talking about. Here we are trying to package existing science to make it more entertaining for a mass audience, when instead we could be getting down to the root of the problem and actually transforming science itself to make it more exciting and fun.
Let's face it, nobody's going to pay money to watch Stanford biologist Irv Weissman conduct lineage analysis or clone stromal cells of the hematolymphoid microenvironments – not even if he's played by Zac Efron, the obvious choice since they look so much alike (although Zac would have to be willing to grow a Talmudic style beard and gain a few pounds). I suppose you might get a few people to shell out for a romantic horror adventure about virologist Ann Simon's work with the Turnip Crinkle Virus, since "The Turnip Crinkle Virus" is such a kickass title. But it probably wouldn't win the weekend unless we make them zombie turnips that can only be killed by strippers … hang on, I have to write that down.
Just last year, Allen Bard and Yuli Tamir got the Wolf Prize in Chemistry for coming up with something called single molecule spectroscopy and imaging. I don't know what the wolves gave them, money or a statuette or what, but I don't see any reason why we can't do the same and create entirely new branches of science, specifically designed for a mass audience with a short attention span. Here are just a few examples of what I'm talking about:
Adolescent Chaos Theory. What would happen if you never cleaned your room? Wouldn't it be awesome to find out? My son is a pioneer in this field.
Megan Fox Genome Project. Eventually, we'll be able to breed Megan Fox in a dish like sea monkeys. The only question is: who's going to do it first? Us? Or the Russians? I predict almost unlimited government funding.
Quantum Detonation. The study of really massive explosions where things blow up into a million extremely tiny bits. I understand Michael Bay recently received a grant in this area.
Thermodynamic Behavioral Entomology. Combines several disciplines in order to determine what various bugs do when you fry them with a magnifying glass. Huge appeal in the preteen market. Great potential for merchandising tie-ins featuring adorable talking bugs that ignite.
Nocturnal Terrestrial Astronomy. Leading theorists believe high-powered telescopic equipment could be repurposed in order to observe the activities of hot chicks in their natural environment without unnecessarily disturbing them. Practical applications abound, like watching them shower to make sure they don't slip. More than 170,000 people are injured in tubs and showers each year in the United States alone. We can all help. We must help.
Feline String Theory. Kittens love string. Everybody loves kittens. Do the math!
See? The possibilities are truly endless. Clearly, some of these emerging, new scientific fields have the potential to better all humanity by furthering our understanding of the mysteries of our universe, curing diseases, and mitigating the suffering of millions of people around the world. And at the same time we can fulfill the more important and immediate goal of creating great entertainment for a mass audience. So let's all get to work!
- Hey, X-Change Files fans, let us know your favorite "new branch of science!"

Skip to comments.Obamaphone Lady: "Öbama lied to us"
Posted on 01/15/2013 2:39:04 PM PST by GlockThe Vote
How does it feel now sucker!
(Excerpt) Read more at youtube.com ...
LOL. She got played for a fool.
those muncher will never change, some one must have set her up for this photo op...trying to make her appearance an improvement... P.S. could that have been an obama person who set this u tube up??? betcha it was!!!!
Doesn't matter.
Four years fcorm now the same low information voters will be fooled again into voting Democrat.
Count on it.
Is this a clip of where she says that she won't vote for Obama again?
She is beyond stupid. She is desperately stupid. Profoundly, utterly and completely stupid.
Give her money? She'll say ANYTHING, apparently.
Don't know - but she seems really down in this interview.
LOL - what a sucker
She admits she got suckered and seems really down in this interview.
LOL though!!!!!!
Im laughing to so hard right now listening to this
This interview is so funny. I'm almost on the floor rolling right now
Looks like the drugs have worn off a little.
She seems almost human in this video.
You can fool some of the people all of the time. This group is mostly Democrats.
Is this the interview where Alex Jones suggests that she get an agent because she can make money doing voice overs and commercials?
You are right - she does not come across as a bad person as at all in this interview
I still love the part in the first clip where she says, "Mitt Romney? He sucks! Bad!" I can't say I disagree with her.
Obamaphonw lady: Ï'm nationwide"now - LOL!!!!!
She is even a little sympathetic in this interview
Listening to this video - i dont hate this woman at all.
She is not a bad person at all, just misguided.
How is she going to vote for the POS again? Does she not know he can't run for pres again? Just another low information voter.
She is a 9/11 Troofer too
Not misguided Self-delusional
I have no sympathy
More democrats getting edumacated. LOL
This interview is so funny.
Low Information Voters — a public school success story.
Alex Jones is an idiot.
He may be an idiot - but he got obamaphpne lady to admit obama is a liar = WIN
No foolin' tool...should have asked Obama's former "constituents" from his district in Chicago how he looked out for them.
Hope'n'Chnage redux meets reality...
LOL!!!! She admits as such
FU Obama voters!
Probably - but Romney was the wrong guy
Like that 100%.
Where do you see things going in the future?
Obamaphonelady's husband:
We'll be like Iraq, fighting each other, city to city, because you got more over here and we have less over here and we gonna go over there and take yours and go back to our city and destroy yours.
Yep. Here's my theory - and why I take this as encouraging despite the obvious fact that they are "low information" types:
Alex Jones is probably the first and only person who has engaged them in an intelligent fact-based discussion in their lives. And when he showed them the facts and the truth, what do you know but they stopped spewing the Democrat party line and now see things a bit differently.
This is how we will win in the future. "It works every time it's tried".
Thanks, lady. You voted like you did and will probably do so again. May you rot...
Wow.... We really are in living in bizarro world...
Obama phone lady on the Alex Jones show...
Alex Jones is a raving kook and I'm pretty sure his garbage is not allowed on FR.
What does that have to do w this lady saying Obama lied to her?
It's Alex Jones' video. In the past anything form Alex Jones had been banned from FR. I personally don't care what you post but I know of at least one poster who was banned from FR for posting Alex Jones. Post away.
I did not know that
You might ask the mods what they think. Maybe things ave changed.
She does need an agent and go national like the Fluke woman!
The problem remains. The low info voters won't be infoed of Obamalady's turn, if they even know who she is!
Entitlement mentality gets smacked upside the head with reality.
This is far more worth watching than i could have imagined
Hey, it's a start.
Plus she's not worried, she's covered by the blood of Jesus.
My impression of her just went WAY up.
Did not know jones was banned. I posted this for Obamaphone Lady not AJ.
And while you may have posted it for the Obamaphone lady, you linked to the Alex Jones Channel.
It's not for me to say what should and should not be on FR. I just remembered a friend being banned for posting Alex Jones, saw that you did the same and shared what I knew with you.
thanks GlockThe Vote.

text: Law would have present a strong struggle at least. True Vergo is tough but it's only most troublesome for someone who uses physical strength too like Sanji. His toughness won't matter inside Law's room as he can cut anything in it. His biggest problem is Vergo's speed (and CoA for defense on his df) which I think he could handle. Smoker is keeping at it so far.

How does NP3 change your brainwaves?
NP3 can change brain wave activity, which is directly connected to your state of mind, using brainwave entrainment (pronounced: "ehn - TRAIN - mint") - the process of externally presenting brainwave frequencies to the brain, allowing it to synchronize to those frequencies.1 2 3
Snap your fingers. That sound just created an electronic reaction in your brain. If that snapping sound was constant and consistent at the same frequency associated with a calm state of mind, your brain waves would continue to react and would start to synchronize with that rhythm. Over time, you would actually begin to feel more relaxed.4
Take control of your mind
Imagine if you could rewire your brain to connect situations and mental states in a way that you choose. We're not saying the process is instant, but NP3 makes it possible. Research has revealed the brain wave states where applied psychological techniques such as suggestions, affirmations or hypnotic scripts can be most effective.6 Using brainwave entrainment, NP3 can guide your mind to a receptive mental state, at which point the program uses your choice of those techniques.
When combined with the right neural stimulation, these techniques can bypass mental and emotional barriers that would normally make the mind resistant to change, making it much more likely that affirmations or suggestions will be effective.7 8 This is what we call self-programming, and using it can allow you to you control your own mind and life in a unique and powerful way.
"...these techniques can bypass mental and emotional barriers that would normally make the mind resistant to change"
The many uses of NP3
We're constantly scouring the scientific literature and consulting with leading experts and researchers in the field to ensure that NP3 is always based on the latest knowledge. We draw directly from the protocols used in peer-reviewed research to successfully and significantly:
Visit the benefits section to discover all of the applications for this software, read much more information about how these benefits can be attained, and learn about the research and studies supporting the sessions we've created.
"This is the most powerful self-programming software that I have come across during my 15 years of evaluating mindware programs."
- Bruce Ehrlich, Psychologist, Author, President of Mind Media, Inc.
Inspired and informed by the best practices and research in the fields of psychology, neurology, and audio-visual stimulation studies, Neuro-Programmer 3 is a software application with unlimited potential and broad capabilities. Although it is incredibly simple to use, it's also one of the most effective tools for positive mental change that you'll ever find.

Yugoslav literature
IntroductionYugoslav or South Slav literature, literature written in Serbo-Croatian, Slovenian, and, especially after World War II, Macedonian languages. The Serbian and Croatian literary languages are similar and generally mutually intelligible, although the Serbs use the Cyrillic alphabet while the Croats use the Roman. The Slovenian language uses the Roman alphabet and is closer to Slovak than to Serbo-Croatian. The Macedonian language uses the Cyrillic and is closely related to Bulgarian.
