FGD: Duck Hunting
Vintage Flame
January 21 2013 05:48PM
After the Flames didn't fare so well Shark fishing, today they'll try their luck at Duck hunting.
In four games last year, both teams were 2-1-1 and both winning their games in their own barn.
With the shortened schedule, the Flames will play the Ducks three times, two of which will be here at the Dome. Last time these two team faced off against each other, it was the last game of the regular season. Both teams were out of the playoffs and basically disinterested;. Akim Aliu led the Flames with two goals and the Ducks couldn't wait to get on the plane to go back to sunny California.
Tonight is a different story all together. The Ducks had the day off yesterday after taking the Canucks to the woodshed, and the Flames skate in their first of many... many, back-to-back games.
It looks like we are going to see a bit of a change tonight, as Blair Jones and T.J. Brodie will make their season debuts.
- Glencross - Tanguay - Iginla
- Baertschi - Backlund - Cammalleri
- Horak - Stajan - Stempniak
- Comeau - Jones - Jackman
- Bouwmesster - Giordano
- Wideman - Butler
- Sarich - Brodie
- Kipper
Tonight will be another opportunity for Tanguay to find his rythym at centre. Though they were kept off the scoresheet last night, Iginla did lead the team with six shots. Tanguay is a great puck distributor and much like the coaching staff, I have faith that he will begin to turn it up, creating more chances for Iggy and Glencross. Speaking of the captain, don't be surprise to see Iginla taking some of the draws for Tangs until he gets a little more seasoned in the face-off circle.
Blair Jones replaces Steve Begin on the 4th line tonight. This shouldn't be coming as a major surprise as most (myself included) thought Blair should have been dressed last night. Begin did an alright job in his role of getting in the faces of the Sharks players last night, but tonight it will probably benefit to have Jones in the face-off circle, where he will be facing the likes of Ryan Getzlaf. Getzlaf is a pretty cool cucumber. You're going to have more success beating him in the circle and along the boards than trying to goad him into taking dumb penalties. Even if that's the aim, I like Jones better as the agitator anyways.
The defense will also see a slight juggle. T.J. Brodie is suspected to replace Derek Smith in the third pairing. This makes sense as well. It was going to be Smith or Sarich, and in the game last night, Corey was more on the ball than Derek. One of the reasons the Flames were taken to task in the second period last night, was that they stopped moving their feet. Too many times, too many Sharks were between the Flames defense and Kipper. T. J. Brodie has been playing all year in Abby and his conditioning is a lot more up to snuff than Smith. Last year's combination of Sarich and Brodie is the natural fit to re-unite, and besides, Hartley seems pretty sweet on Sarich already.
Who doesn't love Selanne? No matter what team you cheer for?
- Perry - Getzlaf - Ryan
- Selanne - Bonino - Winnik
- Koivu - Cogliano - Beleskey
- Rakell - Smith-Pelley - Holland
- Allen - Fowler
- Souray - Sbisa
- Lydman - Beauchemin
- Hiller
Selanne is playing his 1,343 career game tonight. He is 42 years old, plus another couple hundred days. In the Ducks season opener he had two goals and two assists for four points; moving him past Dale Hawerchuk into the 18th spot on the NHL all-time scoring list.
Getzlaf's line is always one the Flames have had troubles with. Perry is always a threat around the net, not just to score, but to cause havoc on the goalie. He's been getting away with it for so long, that he's damn near perfected avoiding interference penalties. If you do manage to keep this line out of your zone, well then you have Ryan's quick hands that are always good for throwing the odd puck out of the net, that managed to get past Hiller.
Souray looked impressive as well in the Ducks opener, scoring once on the power-play and assisting on one of Teemu's goals. He has a bomb of a shot for the point and with the likes of Selanne, Perry, Getzlaf and Ryan circling like vultures, the Flames defense is going to have to be on their toes tonight.
First and foremost, the Flames are going to have to keep the Ducks off the power-play. They have too many weapons and if Calgary starts taking dumb or successive penalties, the Ducks PP is going to make them pay for it.
The Flames know what they have to do tonight because it's pretty much the same game plan as yesterday. Shut down the top six and play a smart agressive game.
Game time is 7:00 pm on Sportsnet West.
January 21 2013, 10:28PM
Gotta disagree. Bouwmeester has been bad in all three zones, Wideman just in the Dzone (and I didn't even think he was as bad as Giordano has been defensively).
Kipper Giordano and Bouwmeester essentially cost us another win.
January 21 2013, 10:39PM
I was talking specifically the d-zone. Wideman's been decent-to-good in the offensive zone, and yeah the entire defensive corps has been terrible so far, with the exception of Brodie/Sarich.
Am I the only person to be impressed with Stajan in these two games....
He looks a lot better
January 21 2013, 10:48PM
Yes, I'd say you're the only one impressed.
I just came back from the game. He looks out of place, a step behind and with the hockey sense of a baseball player.
Another goat tonight was Sarich. Granted I've never liked Sarich, but this guy is getting worse and worse. Simple plays don't exist with him 'cause he doesn't know how to execute them.
Liability #1, with Wideman right behind him.
Man... I sound angry.
January 21 2013, 10:55PM
Am I the only person to be impressed with Stajan in these two games....

He looks better than he previously has with the Flames.
January 21 2013, 11:03PM
I liked Horak, Brodie, Baertschi, Wideman. I didn't like Bouwmeester, Kipper. Only two games for sure but it'd be nice to get that first win. Down with the Nucks.
What did Mike Cammalleri and Mark Giordano do in Toronto during the offseason, just horrid starts. If they were even anywhere close to where PK Subban was training, no wonder Montreal is in no hurry to sign him, although apparently he is looking for Drew Doughty money, Hahahaha. Good luck, IMO he is hands down the most overrated defender in the league, puts up big point in nothing games and is invisible in anything that matters.
Also if Kipper makes one big save tonight we get the W, letting in 9 goals in two games is one thing but every single one of them was the type that completely takes momentum away from a team. Never seen him cough up rebounds like he has the past two.
Only Positive is the PP looks much better this season with Wideman running it and not Jay Bouwmeester serving up his muffins.
Well, Vanc are not going to be an easy game & going 0-3 is not the definition of a fast start.
@ loudogYYC
Disagree I thought Sarich was our second best defenseman tonight outside of Brodie, and thats saying something because I like you cannot stand him and I wouldn't say he looked good either just not as bad as others.
Giordano, Bouwmeester were just awful, their inability to clean up Kippers ridiculous rebounds is why we lots the last two. Never thought our defence would be our biggest problem, wish we would have traded Bowumeester in the offseason while he was worth something. We could have got a Gustav Nyquist who apparently isn't NHL ready in Detroits eyes..... Dont understand why he is still in the A....
Wideman looked shaky in own zone but his Play on the man advantage was what allowed us to get back into the game.
I would start Irving as Kipper has been dominated by Vancouver the last couple years. When Hartley was walking out tonight he said something to Irving wouldn't surprise me if he's in Wednesday.

Irving did win in Vancouver last year and played extremely well, and you are absolutely right, I can't really remember the last time Kipper played well vs. Vancouver. I doubt it happens, but the way Kipper has played these first two games if you're Hartley you have to at least consider it.
January 21 2013, 11:31PM
Irving can't be worse than Kipper.
I would start Irving as Kipper has been dominated by Vancouver the last couple years. When Hartley was walking out tonight he said something to Irving wouldn't surprise me if he's in Wednesday.
Would agree & Irv would make sense. Hudler & Cerevenka need to be slotted back in, I think Comeau was invisible & I wouldnt be suprised to see both Stajan & Comeau sit. Horak has looked good & Jones was good tonight. Brodie was good too.
262 Posts and counting. Wow, what fan backlash.
As predicted, TJ was, by far, the best D out there (maybe even the best player). Horak and Stemp rocked, too bad they don't have a centre. The first period was painful. Flames were in this for the last few min of the first, until they tied it. After that, it appeared that they felt their job was done, they won the game by catching up. Let the Ducks have it after that. What a waste of a great comeback.
January 22 2013, 12:54AM
I'd also describe Wideman as shaky in his own zone yet effective from the point. So he's what we hoped we would get from Zyuzin... I mean Babchuk, for $2.5M
I don't recall who said it first, but the buyout freebies could probably be considered on a Feaster signing next season.

Living in an area known for its love of horses, one might expect an equine-themed parade during the holidays.
Families will line the streets of downtown Parker for the annual Christmas Carriage Parade at noon Dec. 8. The town will shut down Mainstreet and the Victorian Drive loop to make way for horse-drawn carriages, wagons, surreys and stagecoaches. The free parade is supplemented with other holiday attractions, including two holiday markets, ice sculpting, a petting zoo and pony rides. Even Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus will pay a visit.
The parade has become a yearly tradition for dozens of local equestrian groups, which spend the weeks leading up the event planning out décor and outfits and other last-minute details.
Lisa Bialy, the co-founder and social secretary for the Elizabeth-based Mile High Gaited Horse Club, says 10 members from Douglas and Elbert counties are participating and will ride horses that are festively covered in glitter and spray paint. This year, the horses will also be decked out for the parade's "Jingle Bell" theme, and the crowd will surely be able to hear them coming down the street.
The stars of the show - gaited breeds like the Peruvian, Tennessee Walker and Paso Fino - have all grown accustomed to the distracting sights and loud sounds. A once-a-year "de-spook" clinic helps them get used to other entries, like high school marching bands, not to mention the small children who stand wide-eyed, just feet away, as the gentle animals pass by.
"When they trust you, they will do anything you ask them to," Bialy said of the equines.
This will be the seventh year that the equestrian group has joined in Parker's Christmas Carriage Parade, one of many Front Range parades in which it participates. Bialy said it is among the favorites.
"I love how the (town) decorates," she said. "It's very Christmas-y. A lot of towns don't do that."
The Parker parade also holds a special place in the hearts of members of the Mile High Gaited Horse Club. It was a beloved venue for Bialy's son, Micah, who passed away last month at the age of 14 after a two-year battle with brain cancer. Last year, he participated in the parade in a wheelchair. In his honor, Micah's father will be riding a Peruvian mare that bonded with the boy during his brave fight.
"He will be there in spirit," said Bialy, who pointed out that Micah was treated at The Children's Hospital at Parker Adventist, which coincidentally is one of the event's main sponsors.

Skip to comments.(de)Evolution of a math lesson 1950-2013 (vanity)
Posted on 03/16/2013 12:00:17 PM PDT by Impala64ssa
Years of Math 1950 2013
Last week I purchased a burger at Burger King for $1.58. The counter girl took my $ 2 and I was digging for my change when I pulled 8 cents from my pocket and gave it to her. She stood there, holding the nickel and 3 pennies, while looking at the screen on her register. I sensed her discomfort and tried to tell her to just give me two quarters , but she hailed the manager for help. While he tried to explain the transaction to her, she stood there and cried. Why do I tell you this?Because of the evolution in teaching math since the 1950s
Teaching Math In 1950s A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is 4/5 of the price. What is his profit?
Teaching Math In 1960s A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is 4/5 of the price, or $80. What is his profit?
Teaching Math In 1970s A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is $80. Did he make a profit?
Teaching Math In 1980s A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is $80 and his profit is $20. Your assignment: Underline the number 20.
Teaching Math In 1990s A logger cuts down a beautiful forest because he is selfish and inconsiderate and cares nothing for the habitat of animals or the preservation of our woodlands. He does this so he can make a profit of $20.. What do you think of this way of making a living? Topic for class participation after answering the question: How did the birds and squirrels feel as the logger cut down their homes? (There are no wrong answers, and if you feel like crying, it's ok.)
Teaching Math In 2009 Un hachero vende una carretada de maderapara $100. El costo de la producciones es $80. Cuanto dinero ha hecho?
Teaching Math In 2013 Who cares, just steal the lumber from your rich neighbor's property. He won't have a gun to stop you, and the President says it's OK anyway cuz its redistributing the wealth.
Beck was talking about the "Common Core" curriculum. I'd never heard of it before.
Sounds just dreadful and it's taking over all over the country.
LOL! Well written and telling. I hope this gets wide circulation.
That is hilarious. Sadly true as well.
Are there any actual examples of math problems in the period cited? When making the point to someone, it might be more useful to have some real math problems, and not have to use a clever, but exaggerated, viral email to make the point.
There should be a few more in there:
In 2000: A female lesbian logger and her life partner start a lumber company with a grant from the US government. Because of evil Republicans they can't get married because of DOMA and Christian homophobes. Question: Do you think you might be a lesbian, and if so, would you like to talk to the volleyball coach about it?
The real ones are not far off the mark. When you see stuff saying homosexuality has to be put into math problems, and race has to be put into math problems, you're there.
Marcia's two moms...
The public school, including the "charter school", is BY FAR, the largest, most expensive, most subversive, and most destructive entitlement program in the country.
The public school is better understood as the government school collective.
It is silly to imagine that you can fix the public schools, because the very concept itself is collectivist.
Any child that comes out of the government school collective with their moral compass and common sense intact does so in spite of the government school indoctrination, not because of it.
It is hypocritical for you to submit your children to an authority with whom you fundamentally disagree. Children instinctively mistrust hypocrites.
If you want to win the culture war, have lots of children (see my tagline) and homeschool them or form your own school cooperative with your church or synagogue and like-minded friends and relatives.
Nobody loves our children more than you do.
Nobody can teach your children better than you can.
Nobody knows your children better than you do.
Your children would love nothing better than to be taught by you, if you start doing so before they are corrupted by the government school collective.
If you have children, make whatever sacrifices you must to get them out of the public schools.
Especially not with your own children.
And DO NOT TAKE GOVERNMENT "EDUCATION" MONEY!
He that pays the piper calls the tune, and that's especially true for any government entitlement program.
You have a point but ...
Take a look at any old 50's and earlier math book. Algebra, for example. I have a couple from the 40's. They are relatively short books but you could easily master algebra by following the course outline.
The format: Description of the basic principles, example problems worked out and then problems for the student.
Now take a look at the 5 lb monsters that the kids need a backpack to carry that are now used to teach ecology/algebra. Lots of hand-holding. Political Correctness brought to a fine art but just total overkill when it come to the math. Confusing and, in the end, inadequate.
The 50's were better.
We can't ask our children to anything too mentally challenging, now, can we? Just think, if they learned to think for themselves and to figure things out, they just might figure out that the government is one big fraud.
It's not school anymore, it's just state run babysitting along with loads of indoctrination through propaganda.
Only anti-values are ("taught") foisted on innocent children.
2013: Duh, I can't read this.
Back in the day, stupid people would naturally remove themselves from the gene pool. Being stupid HURT and was a likely death sentence.
Now we bubble-wrapped the world and put warnings on everything. We limit everyone's freedom to prevent stupid people from hurting themselves. We feed and control diets of people too stupid to feed themselves. We feed the children of idiots, nomatter how many they breed.
Under such conditions, the amount of idiots will naturally increase exponentially every year until there aren't enough competent people to take care of them.
Compassionate, yes. But it's no different than being compassionate to a group of feral dogs in your home and letting them breed. Eventually they'll take over your home and everyone dies...horribly.
In 2013, all lumber production is now in China and US loggers are out of work. Doesn't matter because the cost of load of lumber went from $100 to $10,000 in 60 short years and no one can afford it.
Why can't Jewish girls use a ruler?
Perhaps the manager was Larry Summers... yeah, the same guy that thought he was smarter than the investing team for the Harvard University endowment fund. Ol' Larry was responsible for losses of billions of dollars in a few short years. Then he stood up at a conference on diversifying the science and engineering workforce and told everyone that "women lack the high end aptitude of their male counterpart."
Take computers out of schools until 4th grade. By then, the basics have been taught.
Teach writing, too...........pleeze....
OK, I'll bite...why can't Jewish girls use a ruler?
Thanks for posting..
This is a visual joke. I am holding my two index fingers about 6 inches apart, the answer is "because Jewish men have been telling them that this equals a foot their whole life".
Because of my hatred of pennies I often give cashiers, many of them kids, more than the price so as to get back round numbers. I've never made anyone cry. Never gotten a blank stare or waited through managerial intervention, either. My assumption is that most customers who still pay in cash do it, and the girl in the story was probably new or especially stupid.
This isn't something you should have to learn at school, anyway. It's something you can pick up as you go. Simple transactional arithmetic.
My sister, though a mere two years younger, went through that "core" nonsense. I took the usual route from arithmetic, times tables, and long division to algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus, in that order. After elementary she went off on a tangent to gosh knows where. It wasn't algebra, exactly, though that was involved. It wasn't anything you could pin a name on, really. She ended up with an accounting degree and has worked at banks and a tax firm. No thanks to publik skrool.
She also somehow ended up missing out on the Civil War in history. One teacher went into too much detail on the Mexican War, or something, then next semester, trimester, quarter, or whatever it was the next teacher was on reconstruction. I've talked to a number of people from different areas who claim never to have learner much about the Civil War, mysteriously. It almost resembles a conspiracy.
Not that had they actually studied it would it have been worthwhile. I went the traditional route through the maths, as outlined, and today am basically functionally innumerate.
Those are different tactics, is all. Humor may be preferable to accuracy.
That is partly the fault of the textbook companies. The PC cops get their say naturly, since all "educationists" are lefties. Because, come on, who what kind of person wants to be an "educationist"? The same who'd be a "community organizer." That is, someone paid not in money but ideological self-satisfaction and delusion of grandeur.
But I digress. The textbook companies have a near monopoly, and they milk that advantage to the point of absurdity. New editions every year, natch. Ridiculously overpaid authors who might not actually write a word. Glossy pictures that make sense in a coffee table book but serve in a classroom to give something for kids to instead of paying attention. Covers hard enough to side your house, accompanying CD-ROMs that no one will ever, ever use, etc.
Same exact thing happened to me at a Hardees.
Usually, they pull 42¢ out of the drawer and add your 8¢ to it.
Thought it might be something like that...:-)
Mine didn't cry but the look on her face was priceless. It was a completely clueless look. I had to explain to her why I gave her the change I did THEN I showed her how to make the proper change for the transaction.
She's a future obamacare administrator in training.
You'd think they could just punch the number into the register, even if it is more than the required amount. The register will tell them how much to give you back. How much easier could it be?

Hey guys, not posted for a while due to college, so hi all =]
Anyway onto the topic: i've come up with (what i think) is a pretty sick idea for a manga, i have story prototypes, a title, basic character descriptions, a plot etc, only problem is im absolutely useless at drawing manga. Essentially im looking for a whole team of sci-fi manga enthusiasts (think a mix between Eureka 7 and 07 Ghost and you kind of have the very basics of the story) who can bounce ideas off of each other so that 1 or more artists can then draw it.
If people are interested i can post up some of the stuff i've come up with so far, i just didn't really want to do too much stuff, then come here and find nobody wants to help =S
Also, does a manga HAVE to have originally been in japanese? Because i don't particularly want to write a western style "comic" if you get my meaning.

South Africa saw off England with a 16-15 win on a grim Saturday at Twickenham, with a late rally from the hosts seeing them fall short.
South Africa saw off England with a 16-15 win on a grim Saturday at Twickenham, with a late rally from the hosts seeing them fall short.
Three penalties from Pat Lambie and a bizarre try from Willem Alberts handed the visitors the win, with Toby Flood and Owen Farrell accumulating five penalties between them.
England dominated territory and possession but were naive in attack, lacking direction and depth which made matters simple for the Springboks defence. Too often forwards were found in midfield when England needed a clinical line-breaker. The fact that Tom Youngs was the most effective Red Rose attacker said it all.
An interception break from Manu Tuilagi in the second half summed up their troubles perfectly; Chris Ashton choosing to not back his pace and ultimately seeing England plod forward into another turnover.
South Africa on the other hand were more patient, clinical and superior without anywhere near the same amount of possession – executing to greater effect when inside opposition territory in a replica performance from their victory over Ireland weeks earlier.
Controlling the line-out, they were spearheaded by the excellent Eben Etzebeth and made better use of their kicks to pin England back. Their scrum was also in the ascendancy as time ticked away, gaining the upper hand and reversing England's dominance from the first half.
Mike Brown's clean break in the opening minutes gave England valuable territory, with Toby Flood eventually converting a penalty after South Africa went offside near the posts.
Lambie tied the scores with his first kick of the afternoon but England regained the lead with a penalty from the game's first scrum, Flood returning to the field after being checked for concussion to grab the points.
A knock-on from Zane Kirchner inside his own 22 handed England an opportunity at the scrum – the returning Alex Corbisiero getting the edge over Jannie du Plessis – only for Flood to miss the simple kick wide to the right.
Persistent South African pressure in England's red zone then yielded a penalty for Lambie to give the visitors the lead for the first time at 6-9.
A fine offload from Joe Launchbury released Flood before Alex Goode burst upfield to bring Twickenham onto it's feet. But the chance was wasted after a grubber kick from Flood dribbled beyond the dead ball line. Key defence at the breakdown then helped both teams clear their lines before half-time.
The Springboks started the second half with a bang and after setting up camp in the England 22 scored a bizarre try. Ben Youngs' box kick ricocheted forward off JP Pietersen, with Tom Wood fumbling the ball which dropped into the hands of Alberts who burrowed over for the opening try.
Farrell replaced a wayward Flood and drew England within seven points with a penalty after 60 minutes and then added another as the match went into the closing stages, giving England a chance as they moved within four points.
Faced with a tough decision inside Springbok territory with two minutes left, Farrell brought England within a single point with another penalty kick rather than opting for the corner. Unable to win the restart, South Africa closed out the match and remain unbeaten in November.
Man of the match: One big performance from Eben Etzebeth, dominant in the skies and a joint top tackler with 16.
Moment of the match: England may well regret their decision for points over the corner as the clock ran out.
Villain of the match: Aimless kicking. It entertains nobody and transforms games from spectacles to duds.
The scorers:
For England:
Pen: Flood 2, Farrell 3
For South Africa:
Try: Alberts
Con: Lambie
Pen: Lambie 3

April 21 2013 02:30PM
The Edmonton Oilers procurement department is delivering an interesting and diverse group of young blue to the pro ranks these days. Oscar Klefbom (in photo) leads the way for the "mobile" defensemen of the future and the club added another with footspeed yesterday in Martin Gernat. Edmonton has also invested in big, gritty defense-first defenders. How important--for defensmen--is speed and ability to move the puck in today's NHL? Is it more important than grit, physical play and playing the enforcer role?
Martin Gernat signed yesterday and is among a fairly large group of defensemen bubbling under with good footspeed. A quick glance:
- Oscar Klefbom: In his draft year, Redline Report said he had the best speed of any defender not named Ryan Murphy. He is not considered an offensive defender, but rather a "complete" player type.
- Martin Marincin: A good skater, very good for a player of his size. Frank Musil pushed for Marincin back at the 2010 draft, and he's paid off so far--this was his first pro season and he's shown well in OKC. He is unlikely to be in the NHL next season but could see action by the end of his entry level deal (which expires summer 2015).
- Martin Gernat: Described as a smooth skater with a fluid stride by Redline before the draft, Gernat has developed nicely--but has some chaos to his game--and it'll be interesting to see where he slots in as a rookie pro. I think his progression may mirror Marincin's, and a long term view to his development is wise.
- Joey Laleggia: Corey Pronman tells us he's a "good" skater with a terrific offensive mind. We would assume he'd have to be based on his lack of size, so he belongs in this group.
- Erik Gustafsson: A puck mover with good speed who can help the powerplay. He also plays with an edge and is a little older and more developed than some of the young men on this list. He's playing off off Broadway, but could surprise and has enjoyed a solid year.
- David Musil: Effective defender who is very effective in his own zone and reads plays very well. Foot speed has been an item since draft day and remains an issue. Beyond that, he appears to be a very capable defenseman and was very effective at WJ's and in the WHL as a teenager.
- Dillon Simpson: He's in this category but there is a caveat, as described before his draft day by Redline: Sluggish skater with a short stride, but shows good gap control and lateral mobility. Simpson also appears to have improved his foot speed since draft day and has moved up the depth chart smartly at UND. I'm not certain it's completely fair to place him here at this time but we're going on draft day reports so it applies.
- Taylor Fedun: An effective rookie season in OKC has him moving up the depth chart for good reason. Fedun's foot speed isn't a major issue but I believe he belongs to this group despite having a wider range of skill than someone like Musil. Fedun's season is one of the underrated items in the Barons season, suspect we'll be hearing a lot about him at training camp in the fall.
- Brandon Davidson: Skating was an issue, Mike Remmerde mention skating and pivots as an issue, but said he was very good at moving the puck. It was likely a reason for his being taken late in the draft.
- Kyle Bigos: Got a "skates well for a big guy" thumb's up from Stu MacGregor on his draft day, but that's different than saying he has good foot speed. Oilers have not yet signed him, but Bigos has some potential based on the scouting report.
There are a couple of things to note about the division above:
- It is not strictly a comparison of "puck movers" versus "stay at home" types, all that rule somewhat applies.
- The first list boasts a first and a second round pick, while the second group has a high second. Based on where they were taken, we should expect more from the first group.
- "Size" is abundant in both lists, but the puck movers have strength as an issue--specifically Marincin and Gernat.
We don't really know if these guys can (or can't) move the puck up quickly and effectively when and if they reach the NHL, but we can look at their resume's and the roles they play and make an educated guess. We can do the same to figure out who might be able to fill that tough, gritty, enforcer role.
- Possible Top 4D at EVs (NHL): We're projecting, but Klefbom seems a no-brainer. I'd add Marincin (who played significant top 4 this season) and Gernat (who is a long way from bring there but toolsy and has size/speed) as being legit candidates. From the second list, I'll pick Simpson based on his step forward since draft day. So the bet is that 4 of the 10 (Klefbom, Marincin, Gernat, Simpson) end up playing top 4 NHL minutes. History tells us that not all will make it, with injury being the major item to decide. Still, that's some nice organizational depth.
- Possible PP D (NHL): This is a really difficult job to get, the current Oilers have one of the jobs taken for the next long time (Justin Schultz) and a decent candidate in Jeff Petry already with the team. I do think Martin Gernat has some potential in that role (should he continue to develop) and that Martin Marincin and Taylor Fedun had some AHL success. The best candidate for the role may be Joey Laleggia, who is a perfect fit based on skill set. There's a giant asterisk (can he play NHL defense?) but that role is his best chance at an NHL career. Dillon Simpson has shown some nice progress in this area, too. Finally, although a wild card Erik Gustafsson is described as having enough skill to be effective in Sweden at this discipline.
- Possible PK D (NHL): Klefbom and Musil are the strongest candidates, with Marincin, Gernat and perhaps Bigos also being candidates. All of these defensmen are likely to play heavy PK minutes at some point or another during their pro careers and that might get them an NHL job (Potter being an example).
- Grit/Enforcer/Physical role: Bigos has the size and mind set to be a very good one, Musil can do it but doesn't seem to have the disposition. He certainly ranks as the best option for clearing the front of the net/wall battles based on what we've seen of him.
If you believe the physical role is the most important job for an NHL defender, then a player like David Musil projects as a future big minutes player for the Oilers.
However, the current NHL asks their defensemen to scoot back into the zone, grab the puck and outlet it effectively in a heartbeat. Those skills appear to be best represented on the Oilers by Oscar Klefbom, Martin Marincin, Martin Gernat and increasingly Dillon Simpson.
The Oilers will enter this year's draft with several impressive pro prospects on defense, so many that we may see one or more dealt at the draft. It is certainly possible that we'll see fewer defensemen taken this season than in 2010 (3), 2011 (4) or 2012 (2).
April 21 2013, 02:36PM
I'm beyond excited to watch Klefbom play. The future is looking very bright with these kids, scouting staff did an amazing job with defenceman prospects.
What about Tuebert?
April 21 2013, 03:01PM
I agree with you LT about the Oilers drafting less defenceman this year. It's funny though how every mock draft you look at this year still has the Oil picking a D in the first round.
Really anticipating the arrival of Klefbom, but it'll be hard to keep the expectations realistic. Hopefully the depth on the blueline will allow him to be brought along slowly and start on the 3rd pairing. Some are comparing him to Brodin, something to get very excited about.
Yup, Oilers are too deep at defence. I worry about this team being too good.
7 years of not making the playoffs, the problem is the defense is too good.
April 21 2013, 03:25PM
That several of these D develop into NHL players is important for the reason that they'll provide value contracts to contrast the huge dollars the existing 'core' will be making.
If say two (let's pick Klefbom and Gernat) become legit top-4's for less than a combined $4.5M, there'll be money left to compliment the roster with vets.
I'm not sad to see us add another good young player at this draft because in order for the team to remain competitive, a pipeline of players on value contracts will need to continue to funnel into the system.
Have you written off Plante?
Lowetide, can you explain how Simpson (and toews) were able to play for a college team before their draft year? I'm unsure of the rules since they would've been grade 12.
Also, how did khaira do this year? His stats are impressive for a younger player in his draft year.
7 years out of the playoffs, with three #1 overall picks plus three more top tens in Smid, Gagner and Paajarvi plus Eberle, Dubnyk, Justin Schultz, Petry and Hemsky and still management has shown that they have no idea how to build a team.
Yet somehow you think Oilers will be making the right moves.
April 21 2013, 04:55PM
That this is some kind of 'special' collection of prospects, is just a projection of wishful thinking fans. There is no more quality or potential here than several other teams' systems.
Lowetide, I appreciate your articles. Despite the poor showing of the big club, you still deliver optimistic articles in gloomy times. That said, I am very excited to see Klefbom and Marancin. The procurement department is doing a good job, its the pro scouting I'm concerned about. Their track record is poor with established players (Belanger, Eager, Hordichuk, Smithson, Khabi).
I don't think we will know how good , mediocre or bad our youth is until we form a decent core around them . Hard to believe Flames are above us and winning . Are we really as bad as our points seem to bear out ? Kind of looks like it a lot of the time .
Not a single image from Kill Bill Vol 1 or 2?
While I agree with you that in today's game you need quick defensemen with skill and great passing to be effective. I will take a big man that's makes it very unpleasurable for the opposition in his own zone. Especially in front of the net. You always need at least one.

Nokia N9 smartphone
Nokia N9 review: The N9 is without a doubt Nokia's slickest smartphone ever
Nokia N9 review: The N9 is without a doubt Nokia's slickest smartphone ever
Nokia's N9 smartphone -- the first to run the company's MeeGo operating system -- is now available through Telstra after the telco detailed pricing and plans on its Web site.
Embattled Nokia today unveiled the world's first smartphone running the MeeGo operating system, the Nokia N9, and also revealed that the device would be available in Australia in Q3.
Nokia may be floundering in the high-end smartphone wars (and will soon be switching to the Windows Phone 7 platform for its N-Series devices), but its newest MeeGo powered N9 smartphone has just been shown off in a teaser video.
Nokia's N8 smartphone may soon be superseded by a superior model running the MeeGo operating system, thought to be called the Nokia N9.
Nokia has launched its N9 smartphone in Australia, the first and likely the last Nokia phone to run the MeeGo operating system. Although the Nokia N9 is slick and easy to use, the timing of its launch sets it up to compete directly with the Apple iPh...
Earlier this week, Nokia lifted the lid on its latest smartphone, the Nokia N9. It is the struggling company's first smartphone to run the open sourced MeeGo operating system, a joint collaboration between Nokia's Maemo project and Intel's Moblin sof...

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Ugh, I really like Lucy too! I wish she could catch a break just once! And fricken Aquarius is pissing me off with her cunty attitude and not helping Lucy ever... Grrrr loved this chapter and I really thought Juvia would be the one to win too... Im thinking Minerva has a power of switching things, or opposites maybe?
A pie in the sky?
You know I hope Sabertooth gets devoured by whatever will pop out of the gates in somewhere in the future chapters. I've also noticed Mashima's style is quite extreme with the emotions. One chapter you are happy and the next you feel like getting in that manga and invoking your wrath.
I hope there is a massive comeback from Fairy Tail and Lucy too. I feel she isn't doing much compared to the rest of the members.
Poor Lucy,
It's one loss after another, and if that isn't bad enough she's supposedly going to die in the upcoming catastrophe.
If that's really the case then Lucy is dead or doesn't exist in the current future. I hate to think this is Lucy's final arc but it sure is starting to look that way.
If it's as you say, Lucy being trapped in a different dimension then I suppose Fairy Tail can do something to save her, just as they were able to bring back Lisanna but if she dies I doubt they will go back in time.
Something has really been grinding me about this chapter. Both Risley and Juvia have already took place in an event earlier. That would mean that a single person can do as many events as they want, right? So, wouldn't the most logical strategy to send Gray in over Lucy?
I Love You!
^I think what exactly the event is unknown until each team chooses who will participate. They just have to rely on the name of the event and what type it is.
Anyway, scumbag aquarius would probably feel sorry for quitting on Lucy (I hope). This could be the start of Aquarius tsundere mode.
sig made by me
Damn she really is a bitch. Just waiting for Natsu to kick one of their asses now >_>
I hope Lucy suddenly wakes up and and then turn Super Saiyan 4 and beat the crap out of Minerva. Or suddenly awaken an unknown power like summoning without keys.... All her celestial spirits summoned to attack Minerva... just anything with that kind of scenario...

Emery High hosted Carbon High in the opening region wrestling match of the season and the Dinos were not very good guests as they defeated the Spartans 59-12. Only Mike Jones at 171 pounds and Wade Bohn at 215 pounds were victorious in the matches. Both pinned their opponent in the first round.
Emery had earlier wrestled in the Juab Turkey Tournament and they were sponsored in this tournament by David and McKette Allred, attorneys at law in Castle Dale. Emery took first place. Teams participating in that tournament were Manti, Juab, Altamont, Payson, American Leadership and Emery.
Emery High also introduced their new coaching staff as the season begins with head coach Buck Taylor a former outstanding Emery Wrestler from Orangeville along with assistant coaches Kevin Reynolds and Tom Hansen both teachers at Emery High. Buck and the team are real excited about the upcoming season and have high hopes returning several wrestlers from last year along with adding many new faces to the team.
Emery had a great showing at the tournament as every wrestler on the team received a medal in their bracket.
Finishing first were McKay Allred at 125 pounds, Skyler Jensen at 135 pounds, Brock Winn at 145 pounds, Landon Huntsman at 152 pounds, Mike Jones at 171 pounds and Wade Bohn at 215 pounds.

cute !!
"nice boots but to narrow and very tight."

Slightly sdisappointed
"These boots are a super cute style but I just can't get past the coloring of the material. Its almost like someone took black leather and dusted it with baby powder that doesn't wipe off. I must have banged the boot against something and now there is a dark mark that looks like the powder rubbed off and is now shiny. When I got them they were uncomfortable as I have wide feet and the foot bed is somewhat on the narrower side but now that I've worn them a couple times they have stretched out and fit fine. The blue part on the zipper is not very visible."

"I love Pink & Pepper boots but this was a total fail. The fit was actually O.K. but the faded look made them look old and worn. The back detail with the blue was barely visible and the zipper that made it look like it was open was quite ugly. You can't really see it in the picture but it looks terrible in person."

EAST CARBON/SUNNYSIDE-Leon James "Papoo" Pressett, age 85 passed away surrounded by his loving family in the comfort of his home on Nov. 14, 2010.
He was born Oct. 30, 1925 in Sunnyside, Utah the youngest son of Humbert and Zina Rasmussen Pressett.
Leon married his soul mate Bessie Lilly Marakis June 19, 1955 at the Greek Orthodox Church in Price and they were blessed with three daughters.
Leon was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He was a lifelong resident of Carbon County and in his senior year he enlisted in the US Navy where he proudly served his country during WWII.
After returning from the Navy he attended Carbon College where he was a member of the Carbon College basketball team. He was also so proud to be the sixth man on the "Lindsey Boys" basketball team.
In 1947, he went to work for US Steel where he later retired as the water master. His pride and joy was his family. "Family is the most important thing in life" was his famous saying. He truly lived that statement. He always had a warm smile and kept a protective eye on all of us.
Leon was one of the finest gentlemen that ever graced this earthy existence. He was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, and great- grandfather. His love spilled over to everyone he met, including his neighbors and community, and everyone immediately became a friend for life. He was a big man, with big hands. "Papoo" was always soft spoken, especially with his girls.
He loved the outdoors and loved to spend time at the ranch in Nine Mile. It was there that he gained a respect for the creatures and the beauty of nature. He was more comfortable astride a horse than he was in a vehicle. All those who were blessed to know Leon will feel a void in their lives from time to time. But recalling his smile and his laughter will be a wonderful remembrance and tribute to him.
Leon is survived by his loving wife of 56 years, Bessie Pressett; their three daughters, Lynne Pressett, Palisade, Colo.; Tamara (Jeff) Loveless, Spanish Fork, Utah; Kelly (Gary) Clark, East Carbon, Utah; grandchildren, Chas, Tia, Kade, Kaylee, and Jaycee; great-grandchildren, Shaylee, Kashley, and Avyelle; two brother- in-laws, Ted (Shirley) Marakis and Angelo (Jaylene) Marakis.
Preceded in death by his parents; seven brothers; one sister.
Graveside service, Thursday, Nov. 18, 2010, 12 noon, Valley View Cemetery in Sunnyside. Family will be at Mitchell Funeral Home Wednesday evening from 6-7 p.m.
Arrangements entrusted to Mitchell Funeral Home of Price where friends and family are welcome to share memories of Leon online at www.mitchellfuneralhome.net.

There's always a moment or two of tension just after you pull the starter rope on the lawnmower when you wonder, through snorts and chugs and puffs of smoke, whether the engine is going to turn over.
It's now 2016, eight years after the first economic dominoes began to tumble, and it's safe to say that the economy has turned over (although the engine may be pinging instead of purring).
Now it's time to pull out of the garage.
For the last few years, businesses have been on a strict regimen -- getting lean, cutting costs and boosting productivity. With the downturn still fresh, many companies have been cautious about making investments, whether in new workers, equipment or in building their brand. Instead, we all seem to be doing more with less.
It was a smart move, because it left us poised for a robust recovery. It's now time to take advantage of that.
For more than three decades, Crain's Cleveland Business has been the trusted source for business news and information for the region's decision-makers, entrepreneurs and professionals. As we turn the page to 2016 and watch other media outlets in our region pull back, we have chosen to step up, build on our reputation and deliver (being ital) more (end ital) news and information. The business community in our region deserves that.
We are working hard and, yes, investing to transform Crain's Cleveland into a truly modern media brand, delivering content in the ways our growing audience demands: on a freshly designed web site, via email newsletters, in our reporters' blogs, on podcasts, over social media, in videos, at our events and, of course, in our award-winning weekly paper publication.

It has traces of the cultural influence of the Portuguese, who once ruled over it and is famous for its beaches & world heritage architecture. A typical tourist destination, the city in general is always in a state of buoyancy and free of the fast & hurried life which the rest of the country has come to.

God bless our troops!!!
In an interview with Wired magazine, filmmaker George Lucas was asked how he wanted to be remembered. He replied: Ill be remembered as a filmmaker. . . . Hopefully some of the stories I told will still be relevant. . . . If youve raised children, you know you have to explain things to them, and if you dont, they end up learning the hard way. . . . So the old stories have to be reiterated again in a form thats acceptable to each new generation. I dont think Im ever going to go much beyond the old stories, because I think they still need to be told.
In Psalm 78, the psalmist was aware of the possibility of Gods mighty works being forgotten and a generation being lost, so he called Gods people to never tire of telling the old story of His redemptive acts to future generations (v.4). The goal of this perpetual rehearsing of their history wasnt just for memorizing historical data; it was to inspire faith, obedience, and hope in the Lord (v.7) and to keep future generations from groping in the darkness of unbelief and rebellion like the generations before them (v.8).
Because of Gods mighty power and grace in our lives we desire to be faithful to tell His stories that we might inspire faith and obedience in future generations.
Read: Psalm 78:1-8

Where were you on Tuesday, April 13, 1971?
In six weeks I would get a degree in chemistry that I would never use, and an hour earlier I would get two butterbars pinned on my shoulder, making me a second lieutenant an officer and a gentleman in the Army Signal Corps. Then what? It was one of those moments when you peer ahead and dont know what is going to happen.

JACKSON – At 23, Ole Miss sprinter Isiah Young already has competed in the Olympics. He has become the fastest sprinter in the Southeastern Conference and only the 39th American to break the 10-second mark in the 100-meter dash.
What's more, Young is among the favorites at both the 100-meter and 200-meter distances in the NCAA Track and Field Championships this week at Eugene, Ore.
Now then, here's what makes all that all the more remarkable: In his state track meet, as a senior in high school, in the 100-meter dash, he finished dead last. Last, mind you. He didn't trip. He didn't stumble out of the blocks. He didn't pull a hamstring.
"I just wasn't fast," Young said last week after a workout in preparation for the NCAA meet. "I couldn't break 11 seconds in high school. There's no other way to say it: I wasn't fast."
amazing story
Said Ole Miss track coach Brian O'Neal, "I don't think there's ever been a story quite like Isiah's. From dead last in high school to the Olympics and now a good chance to win the NCAA sprint championships. You couldn't make it up. People wouldn't believe you."
But it's true. And don't be surprised if Young brings the national championship back to Mississippi.
Says O'Neal, "There are four or five guys who have a shot. Isiah is definitely one of those guys."
The obvious question: How does one go from being a fair-to-middlin' high school sprinter in Junction City, Kan., to being an internationally elite athlete at Ole Miss?
"I always believed I could be fast, and I never quit working on it," Young said. "Every day, every workout, I dedicate myself to being the best I can possibly be."
He did so when senior colleges didn't recruit him out of high school and he settled for two years at Allen Community College in his hometown. He did so after two years at Allen when his times improved significantly, but he still had only one Division I college scholarship offer – from then-Ole Miss coach Joe Walker.
true believer
Young follows in a long line of Mississippi collegiate athletes who willed themselves from out of nowhere to greatness. Guys such as Walter Payton, Jerry Rice and Brett Favre come to mind. None had more than two scholarship offers.
Said O'Neal, a former Rebel middle distance runner from Pontotoc, "Isiah is all about hard work and dedication. He never stopped believing in himself and he never stopped working toward his two goals, running in the Olympics and breaking the 10-second mark in the 100."
When O'Neal became the head track coach at Ole Miss in June of 2012, he could not believe what he had inherited in Young.
"I value him like an art collector would a Picasso," O'Neal said. "His athletic ability, combined with his work ethic and humility is something very rare. I am blessed. As a coach, you don't get a chance to work with many like him."
Both O'Neal and Young say the best is yet to come. "He can get faster; he will get faster," O'Neal said.
"I am still learning about this sport, still tweaking my workouts to get faster," Young said. "I know I can get to where I consistently run sub-10-second 100s. That's my goal now."
That, and bringing home a national championship to Mississippi.

I recently visited the Desert Wave Pool in Price. As part of celebrating International Days, Price City and the Wave Pool sponsored a free swim day. This was a great idea which besides letting people in for free, included activities such as belly-flop and cannonball contests, a dance competition, and a free raffle where prizes were given away.
Through all of this fun and excitement, it was hard to find something wrong�but there was something very disturbing that day. Over the loud speakers placed on the side of the pool blared this loud, obnoxious, noise commonly known as rap music.
Rap music has become a popular genre of music for today's society. I must be missing something, but I cannot see why anyone would be interested in listening to something that swears nearly every line and contains such disgusting and atrocious lyrics. It was therefore even more astonishing to me that it was being allowed to play at what should've been a safe, family event.
It was completely inappropriate, and though it may not have been noticed by everyone there, it soon began to create problems for parents with their younger kids.
For example, as I stood in the shallow end of the pool, I heard a young girl who was no older than 5 years old ask her mom, "What does F_ _ _ mean?" Not long after that, a boy about the same age asked who I assumed to be his grandma, "What is a B_ _ _ _ ?"
I am not exaggerating here. These and other innocent kids were being exposed to something that they didn't deserve to hear. It's something that no one needs to hear in fact - and it was booming from the loud speakers overlooking the pool.
What has happened to the days when a man would be arrested and severely punished for using profanity in the presence of a woman? Nowadays it has become almost common speech which is tossed around casually, no matter who is around or who is being spoken to.
Its presence has invaded our schools, our communities, and in some unfortunate cases, our homes. I think a large amount of the blame for this can be placed on the kind of music that is being listened to today. What one listens to will stick in his/her head until he/she begins to think about those words and phrases in their own mind. The more one starts to think about it�the more they will actually start using these words out loud.
At the pool, I asked a lifeguard in the water why this music was being played. "It's what teenagers like to listen to," he replied mockingly. Well, if that's the case then I am embarrassed to be a teenager. Fortunately, though, that is not the case. Many people do not like rap music, but it is obvious that it is starting to create problems.
Now I am not saying that those who listen to rap are bad people. In fact, I have very close friends that enjoy rap - but they also respect myself and others by not listening to or playing it at times when it would be inappropriate. I appreciate that and respect their opinions. The problem occurs, however, when this music is played in public, or when someone constantly swears in front of people that do not wish to hear it.
This problem is starting to become more widespread and is showing no intention of slowing down. I personally believe that when a problem like this is occurring, those people who have the ability to take action have the responsibility to take action.
I was disappointed that this music was allowed to be played at this kind of function, but I was even more ashamed that no one, including myself, did anything to stop it. We as a society need to prevent these kinds of things from happening in public. I applaud those who do not stand for this behavior at any time and I encourage everyone to try and make a difference - whether it be school, work, or just on the streets. Taking action is as simple as one person having the guts to say, "Stop," - and usually that is all it takes.
Let's try and show some courage and stop this before it gets worse. It's our responsibility.
