Comments: This is my favorite trail shoe, usually Nike isn't my first choice for running shoes but these are really nice. I haven't had any pain or issues with running in these. They hold up very well on the trails here in Alaska (although don't expect the brilliant pink color to last long). My only complaint is that the laces are a little on the short side.
From: Maddie, Juneau, AK

When I set out to hike the 2100-mile Appalachian Trail in 2004, I thought I was smarter and more experienced than most people. I didn't have tons of frivolous, heavy items like bird books, binoculars, or extra shoes. I carried just the essentials and one of those items was a white-gas stove and cook pot. A few hundred miles later I found myself, standing with sore knees, at a Post Office in New Hampshire mailing my stove home. It was too heavy and took up too much space.
A few months later, I found myself at the Post Office again, picking up the same white-gas stove that I had sent home. A person can only take so many cold dinners, sandwiches, and early coffee-less mornings. The stove had found its way back into my pack. What I'm saying is that, in our quest to go fast and light, sometimes we forget just how worth it a cup of coffee is when you're deep in the forest on a cold morning or staring up from basecamp at your alpine objective. Wouldn't it be nice to have the best of both worlds?
When Primus contacted DPM asking us to test run their new 2011 Expresslander Stove, I was skeptical. How many improvements can you make on the simple white-gas model I bought a decade earlier? Well, it turns out quite a few.
Firstly, the weight and size of the Expresslander is far superior to my old stove. The weight of the stove itself is 6.2 ounces. That's about half the weight of my old 11-ounce stove. It's also the equivalent weight of 3 Snickers bars to put it in perspective. Granted, that doesn't include the weight of the fuel bottle which certainly adds a bit more. One of the things I like about white-gas stoves is that you can regulate the amount of liquid fuel you take into the backcountry with you. If you're just going out for one night you can splash a few ounces of fuel in the bottle and stay super light. You don't have that option with propane or Iso-Butane canisters.
The size of the stove is also pretty remarkable for a white-gas model. It folds up to approximately 4" x 3" x 2", making it small enough to fit inside even the smallest of cook pots for convenient packing. Ok, so it's small and light but how does it perform?
The stove is easy to use. In my traditional manner I decided to fire it up before reading the instruction manual. I poured some fuel in the bottle, screwed the pump on tight, popped the fuel line into the pump, pumped a few times, folded out the three stove legs and it was ready to go. It only took a few seconds to prep the whole thing. As with all white-gas stoves, you have to prime it and I particularly like the way this one primes. I opened the valve on the fuel bottle and let a bit of gas drip into a small platform with some wicking material. After turning off the valve, I lit the liquid gas and the hottest part of the flame was directed onto the fuel line. It only took a few seconds to vaporize the fuel, at which time I kicked open the fuel valve and it roared to life. The stove burns at 5200 BTU's and boils a liter of water in about 4.5 minutes. That means, when it's time to eat, you're only about 6 minutes away from a hot pot of beans and minute rice! It also simmers well, which can be a hard task to accomplish with white-gas models.
Another feature I like is the orientation of how the pump and fuel intake enter the bottle. It actually comes in at an angle and the intake pulls fuel from the wall of the bottle. Why is this cool? It gives the bottle and pump two orientations that equate to 'off and on'. When the bottle is laid in the 'on' position, the pump angles upward for ease of pumping and the fuel intake pulls fuel off the bottom of the bottle. When you flip the bottle to 'off' the fuel intake starts to pull air and the stove will burn off what's left in the fuel line. That way, when you disconnect the stove from the bottle, you don't drip white gas all over your hands, pack, food, etc. Pretty simple but a great idea. (the top photo shows the bottle laid in the 'off' position)
One thing that I can only speculate on is the durability of the product. My initial impression is that the stove is going to last a long time. Again with my old stove… It doesn't work anymore. Too many plastic parts have broken from being jammed in a pack, car trunk, or closet. This stove is almost entirely metal and I don't foresee anything breaking in the near future. If anything, I thought the legs of the stove might bend easily. I tried to bend it and, yup, it bent, so I bent it back and it looks brand new. I believe the only maintenance required on the stove will be lubricating the seals in the pump.
I also wanted to make sure that it was easy to clean the jet for maintenance in the field. Nothing is worse than a clogged fuel line or jet when you're stuck above tree-line and can't cook your pasta. Conveniently, the fuel line comes off with no tools required. A finger tight attachment where the fuel line enters the wicking platform gains access to the jet. The pump handle is also easily removed with no tools. Those are the important spots but if you had to dig deeper, it appears that the whole thing could be disassembled with a Leatherman type tool.
There are tons of stoves out there these days; white-gas, iso-butane, propane, alchohol, etc, and it makes it hard to decide which one to buy. To me, the white-gas models fill the niche of 'all-around stove' and the Expresslander sits at the high end of quality for this niche. It's light and small enough to haul into the Wyoming backcountry for a week-long expedition to the Cirque of the Towers, and once you're at base camp; it's got the firepower to cook fast and in quantity. It's equally suited for cooking in the parking lot of Miguel's or bringing to the crag for a cup of hot coffee. If you're looking to buy a great all-around stove for fast and light ascents or just pasta on the tailgate, consider the Expresslander. More info can be found at the Primus website including purchase info.

Pueblo West High School pitcher Ashley Thomas was near perfect when she hurled a no-hitter against Centennial in the Cyclones' 9-0 softball win in South-Central League play.
Thomas, a sophomore right-hander, missed a perfect game when she allowed a walk in the third inning. She finished the game with 9 strikeouts.
Thomas' performance grabbed the local sports spotlight last week. Other top efforts included:
East softball pitcher Katie Orona, who also owns a no-hitter this season, won the matchup against Thomas later in the week as the Eagles took sole possession of first place in the S-CL with an 11-1 win over PW. Orona stopped the Cyclones on a 3-hitter and struck out 11 batters.
Centennial quarterback Quincy Kindred continued to roll, racking up 179 yards rushing that included four touchdowns to carry the Bulldogs to their fourth straight win of the season.
Pueblo West running back Kaden Willis had the week's biggest rushing night with a 229-yard performance on 22 carries in the Cyclones' 39-21 triumph over Widefield. Three of Willis' runs went for touchdowns as he broke a 50-yarder in the first quarter, then added 23- and 14-yarders.
Quarterback Zac Drury also scored three TDs for Pueblo West on 4, 7 and 24-yard runs.
South running back Garrett Krage found the end zone three times against Palmer Ridge. He had a pair of touchdown runs and a scoring reception.
Centennial cross-country runner Michael Duran broke the 16-minute mark with his second-place finish at the Coronado Invitational. Duran crossed the finish line in 15 minutes, 42 seconds for the 5,000-meter distance.
South golfer Taylor Rodriguez copped medalist honors with a 71 in the City Meet held at Elmwood Golf Course.
Rye's Sean Daniels rambled for 176 yards on 22 carries and two touchdowns, including a 55-yard scamper, in the Thunderbolts 27-14 victory over CSCS.

Jed and Sarin Hinkins will appear in the show "Here Come The Newlyweds" which is a romantic comedy reality series. It will air on, May 25 on ABC. Nine just-married couples will compete for a life-changing cash prize to help kick-start their new lives together and realize their dreams, on the season premiere of the one-hour romantic comedy reality series.
Hosted by comedian Pat Bullard, "Here Come the Newlyweds" is all about relationships, the differences between men and women, and the universal issues that every couple must face. The newlyweds are diverse, sexy and competitive, and include pairings that range from couples who met at a date auction, a rock concert and church to a couple reunited after 10 years apart.
In this eight-episode series, each couple faces a variety of mental and physical challenges which will test the love and passion they have for one another as well as their competitive spirit. At the end of each episode, the field will be narrowed as the couples vote to send one couple home. The stakes get higher as the potential nest egg grows, until one couple ultimately wins the grand prize. In the premiere episode, "The Battle of the Sexes," the nine newlywed couples are put on the spot to reveal their first impressions of the couples they will be competing with, and there's a men vs. the women paintball battle, with the losers cooking breakfast for the winning sex. The couples' communication skills are tested when the blindfolded husbands strip down to their skivvies while their wives instruct them where to find their clothes. The winning couple of this challenge will earn safety from elimination. Those eager to take home the big cash winnings are:
Marlo and Mark Corliss of Yarmouth Port, Mass., Ashley and Matt Cox from Smyrna, Tenn., Sarin and Jed Hinkins from Emery County, Utah, Brendan and Bridget Huffman from Philadelphia, Penn., Michele and Sonarak Ieng from Fairfax, Va., Makayla and Kenny McMorris from Omaha, Neb., Audra and Rich Newbery from San Francisco, Calif., Katie and Nick Oskowski from Mentor, Ohio, and Andrea and Matt Smith from Cottonwood Heights, Utah.
Jed Hinkins said, "This is the second season of the show and it will be on Monday right after the Bachelorette at 9 p.m. It was filmed in California and there are nine couples participating. We got to know the other couples through questionaires and activities. During the show we compete against the other couples."
Sarin Hinkins said, "It was absolutely fun. We first watched the show last season and we loved it. It was exciting, competitive and interactive. During the last episode they asked for contestants to apply for this year's season. So we filled out an application just for fun and we were accepted. Every day has just been a blast. It was very exciting."
The Hinkins were in California for the shooting of the show for six weeks. Sarin said, "It's a family oriented show. In one episode we ticipate in paint balling. We absolutely love paint balling, Jed and I, so that was so much fun."
Jed said, "You learn more about your spouse with the different games they play. The whole experience has brought us closer together."
Sarin said, "Going into the competition our only goal was to have fun. We didn't really focus on winning or anything. We just really enjoyed each other and being with the other couples. The whole atmosphere was very fun and very friendly. We have made lifelong friends."
Jed said, "During the week they held activities and games and you can win the competition or you can choose safety. Each week one of the couples is voted to go home. That is a tense part of the show."
"We would do this again it was so fun. I really wish all newlyweds could go through something like this because you really get to know each other better."
Jed took the semester off of school so he could particpate in the show. Sarin's boss was very supportive and allowed Sarin the time off from work. The Hinkins' family has been very supportive and anxious for the show to air so they can see what Jed and Sarin have been doing the last few weeks. Jed said these last couple of weeks have been the hardest not to say anything, because they have a lot of people calling now and wondering about the show. "We just keep telling everyone to watch the show and see for themselves," said Jed. The episodes will air each Monday night for the coming eight weeks at 9 p.m. on ABC.
The executive producers of "Here Come the Newlyweds" are Jay Blumenfield and Tony Marsh ("The Road to Stardom with Missy Elliott," "Dane Cook's Tourgasm"). The series is produced by The Jay and Tony Show in association with Warner Horizon Television.

The Pleasant Street Theater, the last remaining first-run movie theater in downtown Northampton, announced Friday that it will close its doors for good on June 8th.The Pleasant Street has been a primary destination for art house film since the mid-1970's. It closed once before in 2007, but was resurrected by the Amherst Cinema Arts Center, which has continued the theater's operations since then. Amherst Cinema's executive director Carol Johnson says the decision to close hinged on the theater's cramped physical space and the cost of keeping the theater technologically up to date.
"Audiences expect good sight lines and a comfortable theatergoing environment, two things that the size and configuration of the Pleasant Street Theater make impossible. On top of that, that theater, which we rent, is not handicap accessible, and it can't be made so because of space limitations."
Northampton City Council President, Bill Dwight, A video store clerk at the neighboring Pleasant Street Video until it closed last year, says he's saddened by the loss of the city's last movie theater. But, he adds that because of increasing availability of independent or foreign films on the Internet, it doesn't mean a loss of access to art house films.

Playing defense is a tough damn job, with risk of injury, exposure and public humiliation on every sortie. The development of a successful defenseman should be timed by sundial, and there's an enormous risk in dealing away a defenseman during his development time. Trade him too soon and he haunts you for a decade.
In the beginning, the Edmonton Oilers liked Theo Peckham very much. They actually traded up for him at the 2006 entry draft, sending the 80th overall pick and the 200th overall pick in the 2006 entry draft to move up 5 slots and take the roughouse defender from Richmond Hill, Ontario at 75th overall in 2006.
Peckham's development through junior and into pro hockey progressed quickly enough for us to recognize him as a legit NHL prospect. The Oilers loved his size, grit, mean streak and a few months after he turned pro there were good arrows:
- Springfield coach Jeff Truitt, winter 2008: "Theo's still a young player, but he shows a well-rounded game. He's physical, a guy his team can count on. He's relied upon for penalty-killing and the power play. On the power play, he has a knack for getting a shot through traffic."
Peckham played a game with the big club in 08-09, 15 the following year and was at the 15 game mark in the 09-10 season when Peckham took a hit from Sharks defender Doug Murray (who took a penalty on the play) in their March 22nd game. We've talked many times about defensemen and injury; it impacts their effectiveness and shortens their careers. A player like Peckham--who I've never seen back down from a challenge--is doubly vulnerable to injury.
In 10-11, the Oilers not only played Peckham at the NHL level, but they played him a lot with Tom Gilbert and against tougher than expected competition. Peckham and Gilbert played 48% of their seasons together in 10-11 and they also had the toughest zone start available. For a rookie to face those minutes--even with a quality veteran like Gilbert--and emerge with a CorsiRel or -6 and a plus minus of -5 is worthy of notice. Even if we add luck into the equation, and he certainly got a push from playing with Gilbert, there were some things to build on.
This past season was not successful. He took a puck to the face in early February and was used sparingly after that; he also suffered another concussion (his 2nd in two years) toward the end of the season. However, injury wasn't the only problem.
In an article written just before the trade deadline, Jonathan Willis gave a nice summary of the situation at that time:
Peckham has some positives. He's a ruffian, adding the physical edge so many teams are looking for to any lineup. He can kill penalties. However, he's also a bottom-pairing guy on one of the weakest teams in the league, a player with minimal puck skills at the NHL level and a guy that hasn't shown the ability to shut down his opposition – despite the fact he usually draws weak opponents and starts more in the offensive zone than most Oilers. Beyond that, he takes penalties roughly three times as often as he draws them.
That's about where Peckham was at that time and about where he is today. The Oilers have to make a decision on Peckham this summer; trade him away, qualify him and then sign him and include Peckham as part of the solution moving forward, or walk away from the qualifier.
I think the best plan is to qualify Peckham, sign him and give him at least another year to cut back on the penalties, improve his positioning and find those calm feet required for the position. He is 24 years old, the Oilers have invested 156 NHL games (and much of that on the Gilbert pairing) to a young man with many of the things this club lacks: a mean streak, toughness, a man in every battle.
Defense is a bloody tough position. If NHL teams had the option (and they did in the original 6) I imagine we'd see a lot of 28-year old rookies who spent close to a decade learning the trade in the AHL. Modern teams don't have that luxury, and the Oilers can't afford to be wrong on Peckham.
Flush him? Sure. But you better be right, and we should have no doubts about whether or not he'd get a contract from another NHL team. Theo Peckham had a tough year, battled injury and I think coach Renney likely tired of the penalties and the positioning. NHL history is crowded with men who were in Peckham's position today and then went on to play a decade of effective defense. It is not a position that lends itself to straight line progress or performance.
Theo Peckham is worthy of another contract, because the story is still unfolding.
Don't give up on Peckman yet. Do whatever you have to do to keep him in the system somewhere, be it AHL (pretty sure he'd be picked off the waiver wire though) or even throwing him up on the wing on the fourth line.
Answer me this: who has worse puck skills and positional play, Peckham on the wing or Hordichuk on the wing?
One more year, do whatever it takes.
You're suggesting keeping him at all costs because he has better skills than Hordichuk?
Alrighty, then.
Prospects don't sell tickets and entertain patrons seated in NHL arenas. With the fail rate being so high when drafting these kids, the Oilers will be fortunate if one or even two of those kids develope into legitimate NHL players. 30th, 30th and 29th only comfirms the term prospect has been abused considerably by the Oilers spanning the last 20 yrs.
Many here have seen alot of duds come and go here over that time. Outside of the lotto picks, the 3 lotto yummies, the song remains much the same to date.
It's too early to tell on any of these 2nd round picks in the Stu era. However our 2008 6th round pick (in Stu's first draft) is very much on track and probably has a spot on the team, especially if Ryan Smyth is not resigned (which should happen if he demands more then $2M/year).
I guess it is easy to dismiss a player before they even get on the scene.
You're suggesting keeping him at all costs because he has better skills than Hordichuk?
Alrighty, then.
Will be curious to see if Hordi/Peckham becomes bigger than Gagner/Wellwood.
Considering we've never seen Teddy play wing, I'm willing to give him +130 that he's better than Hordi as a winger.
June 17 2012, 03:47PM
You're suggesting keeping him at all costs because he has better skills than Hordichuk? Alrighty, then.
No I suggest keeping him at all (okay not all, most) costs because if we have time for a guy who plays 2 mins a night, then we should have more time for a young player with assets the team needs who took a step backward last year.
I think he needs another look, even if we have to do something silly like put him on the 4th line wing from time to time. I'm sure Teddy could chip the puck in and bang bodies just as well as some of the guys we've seen in the bottom pairing these last few years.
It's just a shame we couldn't put him in the AHL until he turns the corner. And that's the point - he may turn the corner.
EDIT: To put my comment in perspective, I don't believe we will be playing meaningful hockey in Feb 2013, so you might as well see what you've got.
And to think Matt Greene was expendable because we had the likes of Theo Peckham coming up in the system.
It is also interesting to note how Theo soared up the depth chart quickly to stick with the team while Jeff Petry drafted at the same time took longer and only late into the season last year did he look like he belonged
Theo deserves a shot - just not with the Oilers - to many waiting in the wings that play a similar game Colten Teubert, Alex Plante, Taylor Fedun.
June 17 2012, 10:31PM
Dress Theo as the No. 8 Dman - Given our injury history, he'll be playing regular shifts as a 5-6 in by November. Potter is the one that is in trouble here, becasue, he's got no pedigree as an oilers draft pick and Renny, his biggest supporter, is gone.
If we pick up another Dman named Schultz or Murray, Theo is left to fight for ice time with Sutton. If we pick up 2 of them, then I'd send Sutton away and Potter to the AHL.
At the end of the day, invest in your youth not your vets in the last year of their career. (Sutton, Smyth, Khabi).
June 18 2012, 06:04AM
There are going to be trades made to aquire a defensman and there should be players going the other way to make room. Theo is to good to not be qualified.Playing tough is A valuable asset
I feel like we were having this same conversation about Matt Greene a couple of years ago.

The Emery County School Board met at Huntington Elementary on Nov. 7. Emery High Principal Larry Davis gave an update on the proposed random drug testing policy at Emery High. Emery High first introduced the idea in February. An opportunity was given for the students to ask questions about the policy. Parents were also invited to attend an informational meeting, which was well attended. A survey was taken with 91 percent in favor of drug testing and nine percent opposed.
Principal Davis has looked at several school district drug testing policies. He has been using the Davis School Distinct policy as a model for Emery High. The policy will be adjusted to meet the needs of Emery High.
The Emery County Sheriff's Office is fully supportive of the drug testing and has offered their lab to use. The test will be conducted by Four Corners Behavioral Health. The starting cost is $10 per test, but is expected to decrease once the final price is negotiated. There is a proposed increase in activity fees to help fund the testing program.
Principal Davis likes the Davis School District model because it tests athletes, drill team and cheerleaders. It could also be expanded to students who participate in nonathletic clubs, initially only athletes will be tested. Students privacy will also be protected. Students will be assigned a number and the tests will be conducted randomly on a weekly basis. It has not yet been determined how the students will be randomly selected. If a student test positive for a substance no criminal prosecution will take place. Disciplinary action will be handled in accordance with Utah High School Athletic Association policies that are already in place. Parents will also be notified if a test is positive. The primary purpose of the drug testing is a deterrent. Principal Davis said, we don't want to be in denial. We want to be proactive.
One of the board members asked if Green River High had been contacted to see if there was any interest in starting a testing program. If they are interested a district wide policy could be written. Principal Davis has not contacted them, but will contact Principal Nolan Johnson to gauge interest. The policy has been explained to the students and parental consent is required before the testing takes place. A public meeting is scheduled for Nov. 20 at 6 p.m. at Emery High in the little theater.
The school board made a motion to hire Troy Winters as the head soccer coach at Emery High. An interview is scheduled for Friday for the girl's golf coach. The district consolidation plan was approved.
The three year calender was discussed. In the 2015-2016 calender year the compensation day for parent teacher conference will be on March 29. This will add an additional day to spring break. For the 2016-2017 calender year the students will return from Christmas break on Jan. 3. Also in the 2016-2017 calender year school will start on a Monday.
The school board approved travel for the automotive program to go out of state for a competition. USU Eastern will pay for the travel. It is a college level competition. Emery and USU Eastern students typically place high in this event.
Huntington Elementary principal Garth Johnson gave his report. He said the Halloween walk was fun and was attended by many parents who showed up in costume. Dustin Service has been hired as the new custodian. He is doing a good job. The school set a goal to read one million minutes by the end of the school year. They have read more than 400,000 minutes. Milestone events are planned at 500,000 minutes and 750,000 minutes. When the school reaches one million minutes read Mr. Johnson will shave his head.
The school district is familiarizing teachers, staff members and administration with the educator/administration evaluation system.
It is set to be implemented next year. Some of the tasks are complex. In the 2016-2017 school year compensation will be tied to the surveys, which makes it competitive.
The State of Utah superintendant gave his state of education address on Nov. 19. It was broadcast as well as streamed online.

Man's car passion drives his bike designs
Jay Allerton is a self-described "car guy" who "bleeds oil," he says. In 40 years he's owned at least 55 cars, and he's modified each and every one.
But cars are expensive. Their parts are expensive. For the time and money spent restoring a single vehicle, Allerton said, he could build 10 bicycles that demonstrate the same vintage sensibility, which is what he's doing with his small Costa Mesa shop, Mode Bikes.
Tucked behind The Lab, in a small office complex, Mode's front room is parked with half a dozen bicycles that were made within the last few months but look as if they were constructed a century ago. Most are colored in muted earth tones, with thick tires in old-timey brown, cream and white, rather than modern-day black. Many of them feature stretched frames with tanks and raw metal headlamps that resemble motorcycles more than bicycles.
"Most of my bikes are styled after early 1900s board-track motorcycles," said Allerton, when motorcycles were basically bicycles with gas tanks and motors strapped to their frames.
"That's highly influenced what I do," said Allerton, who is not a motorcyclist.
He's a beach cruiser enthusiast who only thought to turn his hobby into a business when a friend, who saw him riding a different bicycle every week, suggested he set up shop.
"Beach cruisers are in a different class. The frames aren't all the same," said Allerton, who finds the diamond frame that has become the industry standard for road and mountain bikes "too boring."
For three years, Allerton had operated Mode Bikes out of an Airstream trailer at The Lab. Three months ago, he shut down the Airstream and combined his workshop and sales location into a single space that is now open to customers by appointment only.
Allerton hand builds between one and two bikes a month. He charges between $3,000 and $7,000 per custom machine. Most of his creations are constructed from chromoly steel frames Allerton makes himself, though some are sourced from an Arizona cabinetmaker, who fashions beach cruiser bicycle frames from wood by hand.
Allerton recently made a replica of an Indian Motorcycle frame enhanced with a sheet metal tank that serves no purpose other than aesthetics, as well as a self-contained headlight, designed to look like a keg can and outfitted with a 1-watt LED bulb that turns on and off with a toggle switch, negating messy external wires.
Allerton hand builds, spokes and threads his bikes' extra-wide wheels, which defy industry convention with widths of two to four inches.
Last month, Mode Bikes displayed its wares at Cars and Coffee in Irvine, mostly to showcase a new creation Allerton calls The Quad. The mint green bicycle rides on four whitewall tires, mounted in pairs on fused rims. The low-riding frame sits 41/2inches from the pavement, its ape hanger handlebars angled skyward.
Allerton said the bike was inspired by a 10-year-old Chrysler concept called the Tomahawk – a motorcycle with four wheels powered with a V10 engine that Allerton saw at a car show. He built a similar four-wheeler for the leather-goods-maker Autum.
"I'm a car guy first and foremost," Allerton said. "The bike stuff is secondary to me."

OCCD2 - Happy Valentine's Day
February 14 2010 11:46AM
The first lazy Saturday of the 2010 Olympics have come and gone and we now consider ourselves an authority on speed skating, mogul skiing and the Gold Medal prospects of the Canadian Womens Ice Hockey Squadron. We have also heard enough sound bites of patriotic classical music to be able to write a series of National Anthems ourselves.
Strings: Check. Soaring trumpet? Check. Kettle drum roll and fade to cymbals? Check. Nice.
That's some new anthem we just wrote for you Moldavia. You're welcome.
Fact: The Canadian Womens team beat Slovakia 18-0. That's 6 goals per period or a goal every 3.33 mins.
Fact: The Slovakian Womens team beat Belarus 82-0 in qualifying for the games. That's 27 goals per period or a goal every 44 seconds.
What would honestly happen if the Canadian Women's team played Belarus? Can you even exceed an 82-0 result? Could they stay focused enough for three periods of hockey to score 90 goals? The mind stretches to comprehend doesn't it?
We have read about these lopsided drubbings in Women's hockey from time to time but must admit that we only tune in for the medal round generally where the field of play is generally more levelled and the games are close. But we had always wanted to watch a two digit smashing that didn't involve the Oilers and the Sabres or the Blackhawks so we tuned in.
You had to feel for the Slovakian goalie. She faced more shots to the face than 50 Cent and didn't actually play badly at all. The rest of her teammates however - wow. Standing around, unable to complete a pass to save their lives and generally just looking as though they wanted it to be over the second it started.
And after an 18-0 drubbing we can't help but think the Canadians have their number should they meet again in the Gold medal round.
Frankly we kind of expected more from Slovakia - a legitimate hockey powerhouse in the Men's side of things. Doesn't Marian Hossa have a sister that trained with him as a child? Does Zdeno Chara have a similarly built female cousin that could be Coached to greatness? Can't that Marshmallow Gaborik be enticed to wear a wig and bring his physical-free style of play onto the ice in a potential gender bending Olympic scandal? Poor Slovaks. A game like that isn't good for anyone.
Flying high off an 18-0 win, this Women's team looks good. Real good. So good we wouldn't pick the Oilers to beat them these days. Not with all THESE injuries and with the arena debate hanging over their heads.
Dutch speedskating is the bomb. Short track, long track, their fans dress up in orange and dance for hours on end, congratulating every competitor in sight on their fine performances. Then a guy like Sven Kramer takes to the ice and crushes everyone in sight, wins Gold in the 5000 m and sends the Dutch into an orgy of speed skating delight.
Did you know that the Dutch have an annual outdoor speed skating competition that is an uniterrupted 200 km of skating all around the Netherlands? Did you know that something like 10,000 people enter it and less than 150 generally finish? Did you know that the weather has been mild over there these past 15 or so years so they have made a fake track to keep the race going?
You didn't? What did you do all day yesterday? It certainly wasn't sit beside us on the couch at Wanye manor and watch speed skating all afternoon. Pfft.
Good on you Jennifer Heil for landing Canada it's first medal of the Games yesterday - a silver medal in the Women's moguls final. The conditions were harsh, the Americans were in fine form and you represented the country in fine fashion. Yes, we stood on the couch screaming racial slurs at the American skiier who ended up beating you for the Gold, but you didn't.
You stayed classy and reserved and brought your skiis with you in front of the reporters instead of bringing a flag to hold up like the other skiiers. You clearly didn't want it to end - and neither did we.
February 14 2010, 12:17PM
That Dutch speed skater was mistakenly confused to be Sidney Crosby buy some crazy (read drunk) canadian hockey fans.
I wonder if Crosby went over there that crazy (read really drunk) dutch fans would confuse him for being that guy....

Only to be the guy who kinda looks like Sid the kid here.
ON a Side note. At what age do we stop calling him Sid the Kid? 25 -30 -35...
@Eric Johnson
I'm still lobbying for the name change to "Sidney the Kidney"
I think adding gunplay to otherwise boring cross-country skiing makes for AWESOME Olympic TV.

Hooray Kristina Groves! Bronze in the 3000!
Quick change the medal total! Nice job by all three Canadian skaters.
Is it only me or do the olympics feel like a big fat FAIL so far?
We're supposed to "own the podium" and we have a paltry 2 medals, 2 days into the games. We're on pace for 14(and 0 gold) medals, which is not going to translate to owning jack squat.
I suppose it's possible none of the events we're favored to win at have happened yet, but it's not looking good so far.
February 14 2010, 05:01PM
A little pre-mature i think (that's what she said) about the medal count. It's only halfway through the 2nd day of competition.
February 14 2010, 05:20PM
Did you hear the reporter interviewing Jen Heil after the event? Jen was very professional and talking of this being Canada's medal and all the reporter says after is well Canada is still waiting for a gold on home soil, how do you feel about that?
Like what the hell, give the girl some props for being the second best in the world, don't just put her down. Man that chafed my azz
FACT: It was Bulgaria that Slovakia beat 82-0 http://tiny.cc/beatdown
ALSO: The Eleven Cities Tour or Elfstedentocht, is not an annual event, in fact it is quite rare and held only when the ice is deemed thick enough, last time was 1997. http://tiny.cc/dutch584

Not all complaints will be the result of the member's failure to meet proper standards and may simply be the result of an error in judgement or a misunderstanding between the parties. Therefore, ACCA requires its members to operate an internal complaint process.
In all appropriate complaints your first step must be to lodge a formal complaint with the member. You can download a template complaint letter from the 'Related documents' section of this page.
In those instances where local resolution has failed but ACCA considers that the parties could benefit from its intervention and a more conciliatory approach, we may refer the matter to our Conciliation Service.

Wanted to like them

Cute and Comfortable
"Initially I loved this sandal because it's light and comfortable. It feels like you're walking on a cloud. I discovered that the straps are not that well made and have broken in the back. I regret I'll have to return this product, because I really love it for the height and comfort and cuteness. Hopefully this was just a defect in the pair I purchased and I can get another pair that's better made."

Hugh Ramsay (1877–1906) was an Australian painter of portraits and genre subjects. Lambert met Ramsay in 1900 when they were fellow passengers on board the Persic travelling to England. They studied together in Paris, where Lambert admired Ramsay's work, and considered him to be the only Australian artist studying in Paris who was 'using paint and not picking at the thing'. Ramsay returned to Australia in August 1902 because he was suffering from tuberculosis, a disease which killed him four years later, when he was twenty-eight.
Lambert drew this portrait of his artist friend in London, after Ramsay arrived from Scotland on 5 January and before Ramsay moved to Paris on 22 January 1901. Lambert generally reserved brush and ink for his illustrative work and usually drew portraits of family and friends in pencil, but here he used brush and ink to create an evocative portrait of his friend.
Amy Lambert wrote of this drawing: 'a striking portrait of [Ramsay], a rapid wash-drawing made when he arrived one evening at our studio, train-sick and weary with social calls, which explained his unusual dress of morning coat and silk hat. He left, somewhat revived by tea and sympathy, with impressive injunctions to us to make all haste to Paris' (Lambert 1938, p.28).
As with many of Lambert's illustrations, this drawing was still in his possession when he died.

Since 1993, REJUVENOL has been producing salon quality hair and skin products including their popular Brazilian Keratin Treatment line. All products are formulated and manufactured under one roof and tested in their "signature salon" to ensure the best results.
Like Elmer's Glue In Your HairI had the rejuvenol keratin treatment done so I decided to use the after care products to maintain it despite the fact that they are super expensive. The conditioner is horrible. I followed the instructions by using just a small amount. I could feel how it coated my hair and it felt "yucky" from the very start. I felt like it never rinsed all the way out. It was on my hair like glue. When styling my hair I could barely get the brush to move thru my hair. After finally getting it dried my hair was nice and straight and frizz free but when I touched it, it felt weighed down and felt waxy. After a short amount of time it started to feel tangled. I had to constantly brush it to keep it smooth. I am disgusted that I paid so much money for such a horrible product.Jul 25, 2012Momma DHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Normal Hair / Color Treated Hair / Chemically Treated Hair

You've Sold Me!In December, a popular Austin hair stylist/professional cut my hair and told me about Rejuvenol products. My hair at the time was so badly damaged - dry, breaking and falling out! Unfortunately, upon returning to Atlanta I could not find the specific products she recommended, even after searching a number of beauty and retail stores. That's when I went on line and discovered FOLICA. Not only do I LOVE the Rejuvenol products (Keratin After Treatment Shampoo & Conditioner and the Rejuvenol All In One Hair Therapy Spray), but the service from Folica is super. Just after the first shampoo treatment, I noticed a huge difference in the texture and shine of my hair. I now order all my Rejuvenol products online (or over the phone) and within two days I receive them. My hair? The results are better than hoped for - my hair looks good and feels great. So thanks to my Austin hair professional friend - to Rejuvenol - and to Folica. Such a winning combination!Mar 21, 2011Marilee / AtlantaHAIR TYPELight Brown / Dry Hair / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

Rejuvenol Conditioner Protects Color Treated HairThe Rejuvenol Brazilian Keratin After Treatment Conditioner has helped protect my color treated hair over the past 3 weeks of use. I did not see any of the normal residue (from hair color) in the wash bowl after washing my hair. The product has helped to reduce the frizzy quality my colored hair has a tendency to have in the high humidity of Louisiana. I did not find that it added much shine. The conditioner is a bit heavy for my thick, oily hair. I did however give it to someone else to try. She has lighter, finer, colored hair and she will continue to use the rest of the bottle. It made her lighter, dry hair shinny and manageable.

Sulfate-free And LuxuriousI have been using the Rejuvenol condition and shampoo for about 10 weeks now. I will NEVER go back to sulfate products again! The conditioner and shampoo are really divine on your hair especially if its color-treated and you've had the Keratin protein relaxant. My color is lasting so much longer and my hair is continuing to remain silky smooth and easily straightened with fast blow dry. Both products are very creamy and luxurious. I like the scent of the Rejuvenol products too. This is a must-have if you have chemically treated hair!Aug 30, 2010Jil B. / CTHAIR TYPEDark Brown / Color Treated Hair / Relaxed Hair / Chemically Treated Hair

Donning hard hats and neon green vests over their business suits and dresses, eight higher education experts from India made their way to the top of what will soon be a state-of-the-art hospital facility located on the growing campus of Montgomery College. With this single example of how strong industry partnerships can benefit community colleges, the local community, and the industries themselves, the first stop on our week-long study tour proved to be a great success.
A few weeks ago, I found myself sitting in a classroom at MIT surrounded by about thirty Indonesians. My mind was wandering since everyone was speaking in rapid Bahasa Indonesia and, sadly, my Indonesian language skills are limited to "hello" and "thank you." On the upside, I noticed the half-erased math equations on the chalkboard—something about "r" and squares and Greek letters—realizing that Bahasa might not be the most confusing language in the room.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
The local soil conservation districts will be operating under new names. They learned at their annual meeting of the Utah Association of Conservation Districts that it's not just about soil anymore. The Emery County districts are part of a statewide zone system and Emery County is part of zone 7.
Bob Barry and Joe Begay welcomed the conservation districts present to the meeting. Everyone introduced themselves and renewed acquaintances.
Many of the district members had been heavily involved in the legislative season recently passed. One of the visions for the conservation districts is to be more locally led in the districts without so much advice from the top. The local groups need to plan projects within their own districts and strive to do better. They will also work on provisions in the farm bill and see how these projects will work within their own districts. All of the districts need to work on a long range plan. Ten of the 38 districts in the state have plans and the others need to get their plans going.
Gordon Younker gave the update for the Utah Association of Conservation districts. He told the story of the farmer who was tired of the new neighbors walking across his field so the farmer put up a sign that said, 'Walkers welcome, but the bull charges.' This drew a number of chuckles from the audience. He told of the influence the local conservation leaders have and how the state organization appreciates the leadership on the local level. He said last year the NRCS completed resource assessments and how important it is to get the long range plans in place. He said they had a good year at the legislature. "We don't ask for a lot, but what we ask for we want," said Younker. "We pressed upon them our needs and we would like them addressed."
The conservation committee sends requests to the Department of Agriculture and if they agree with the request it is sent to the governor and it gets into the governors budget if he agrees. On-going money has been appropriated in the amount of $160,000 for conservation planning. Also $50,000 was appropriated with the Kerry Gibson bill which allows soil conservation districts to be treated like any other local department concerning cost of living increases.
He also discussed the open and public meeting minutes records. If the budget of a district is less than $50,000 then they are allowed an exception to recording minutes. But, if the budget is over $50,000 then an audio recording of all meetings must be kept.
He stressed the need for the local plans for projects as the NRCS has so many funds for use in each zone. "Not a lot can get done without good partnerships," said Younker. He said the BLM and US Forest Service have been good to work with. He is also going to Washington in July. He asked for everyone to let him know what their priorities are.
Kyle Stevens gave the commissioners report. He said he has witnessed first hand the salinity projects going on and how the Huntington/Cleveland project is progressing.
He said the bill which cleaned-up the language which affects the soil conservation districts passed a motion which will just refer to them as Conservation Districts takes effect on April 30. All bills take effect 60 days after the legislative session ends unless specified.
The Utah Conservation Commission deals with more than just soil; water and air is always part of the mix, so the name change is reflective of their role in other areas. Grazing improvement projects and weed control projects are also being funded. A spray program is being funded for Utah County in dealing with the Japanese beetle. There is only a small window of opportunity to eradicate the pest before they move out into other areas where they are a danger to the fruit industry and nurseries.
June 7 is the field day in Escalante and Boulder where a tour of the Grand Staircase Escalante Monument will take place and a tour of sawmills in the area. For more information call the zone 5 office at 435-676-8189.
Dave Cook gave the details of the grazing improvement program. State Senator Mike Dmitrich addressed the zone on the legislative update.
George Cook, Randy Bradbury and Cindy Ledbetter gave information on their education camp in Ephraim Canyon. Wayne Urie gave the Castleland RC&D update and the NRCS update was given by Wayne Greenhalgh.

If you are not being treated with love and respect, check your price tag. Perhaps you have marked yourself down. It's YOU, who tells people what you are worth by what you accept. Get off the clearance rack & get behind the glass where the valuables are kept! Learn to value yourself more! If you don't, no one else will.

B. I suppose if you want to get technical it could be that, just like Jiraiya, Madara's life is incredibly difficult to revive due to the length of time he's been gone (which is far longer than Jiraiya had been dead). I don't think Obito will need a significant portion of the Juubi's strength, though... even if he were to withdraw ten times his personal chakra from the Juubi's stores, it would be a drop in the ocean compared to the power the Juubi's been throwing around.
C. That's the million-dollar question; my guess is not really. At the very least, Madara would have lost the "improvements" granted by Orochimaru's tampering with the Edo Tensei; based on what we've been shown, these essentially amount to a greater share of Hashirama's power (= Youth / Power over Rinnegan+Juubi, perhaps?). Basically, Madara SHOULD be revived in a lesser state. Worst case scenario, he's a feeble old man. Best case scenario, he's his old self, with lesser mastery of Mokuton.
D. Assuming Madara can become the Juubi's Jinchuuriki (which he always intended to be a one-person job), I see no reason why he could not follow through with the Moon's Eye Plan. There's no version of the plan that we're aware of which requires more than one Uchiha alive to carry it out. Madara only needed Obito to carry on his plans while he himself was dead. And either one of them is capable of performing the Mugen Tsukuyomi technique, since Madara showed Obito how.
E. I'm not really sure, though I'm guessing Madara has an ace up his sleeve. Maybe he'll just kill Obito out of spite and let the Juubi rampage (since Madara is the only one the Juubi cannot kill). At this point I'm willing to believe just about anything when it comes to Madara; he could use Creation of All Things (Rinnegan Izanagi...) to make himself a new body, then use some forbidden Soul Transfer technique (like Orochimaru's) to put himself in that body. Who knows. It wouldn't be that different from how he created the Zetsu and transplanted his Will into them, only he'd have gone all the way. It's pretty similar to some of our "Tobi = Advanced Zetsu Clone" theories from the days before the Obito revelation. The only issue that raises is, if Madara could do this all along, why did he bother brainwashing Obito? Why not just ditch his ageing body from the start?
F. I think Obito and Madara are looking for a way to one-up the other before the Juubi reaches that stage, or are both intended to use that stage to their personal advantage. Perhaps Obito is hoping for an opening to trap Madara in his Kamui dimension for long enough to become the Juubi Jinchuuriki and perform the technique on his own. Perhaps he hopes to in some way botch the Rinne Tensei (maybe use Human Realm to remove Madara's chakra/soul from the Edo Tensei body once Madara drops his guard). We're dealing with people who are at least aware of how to gain power over creation itself; it's possible either of them could use the incomplete Mugen Tsukuyomi, and drag the Juubi into it in the same way Obito was dragged into Madara's when it was first revealed. Perhaps if the Juubi is IN the Mugen Tsukuyomi, it can be made easier to control according to their Will, because its own power is less of a factor, and its mind would be cut off from reality and all that natural energy.
G. I think Naruto will definitely either connect with the Juubi's mind Jinchuuriki Style, or else will GIVE it a mind using the fragments given to him by all the Bijuu; I think he was given part of their individual personalities, which he could assemble into a whole and thus give the Juubi the power to resist Madara's/Obito's control.
