WASHINGTON, Jan. 8 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Calling it "a historic step forward in dealing with the problem of pro-abortion Catholic political figures," American Life League president Judie Brown expressed her gratitude to Bishop Raymond Burke of La Crosse, Wis., for "using the authority of his office to deal with a grave public scandal. By issuing a formal decree barring pro-abortion Catholic politicians from receiving Holy Communion, Bishop Burke is not only enforcing Church law but is courageously stepping forward in defense of innocent human beings." Bishop Burke will be installed later this month as the new archbishop of St. Louis. For the past year, American Life League has been pointing out that Catholic bishops have the authority under Canon Law to take the precise action Bishop Burke has taken. "We have diligently brought to the attention of America's bishops the pro-abortion public comments of Catholic elected officials in each of their dioceses, and the Church's remedy for this disparity," said Brown. "As Bishop Burke states in his notification, 'A Catholic legislator who supports procured abortion or euthanasia, after knowing the teaching of the Church, commits a manifestly grave sin which is a cause of most serious scandal for others.' This is why American Life League has published, and will continue to publish, the names of public officials who claim the Catholic faith yet ignore the Church's clear teachings on the sanctity of human life."
The Vatican (news - web sites) reinforced those teachings a year ago when it issued a "Doctrinal Note on some questions regarding the participation of Catholics in political life." "Since our effort began last year," said Brown, "American Life League has identified more than 500 state and federal officeholders who claim to be Catholic while making public pronouncements on abortion that are contrary to Church teachings. The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops recently established a task force to take action on this serious problem. We will continue to encourage the task force - and all American bishops - to defend the truth and send a loud, clear message to all Catholic public officials: You cannot be pro-abortion and Catholic." ------
American Life League is the nation's largest pro-life educational organization with more than 375,000 supporting families.
I think xs saw him at church once, and he did not burst into flames.
I don't think they'll go to a parish that refuses them Communion. I think they'll just up and move on to a liberal parish that is impressed with celebrity, and they'll get in the line just like they always did. Jerks.
How much authority does the Bishop have over an order priest? Can he suspend faculties?
The only thing left for him to do in a Catholic church that is NOT insincere, is to be the guest of honor at his own requiem mass.
Refuse to do it. Have a copy of the applicable sections of canonm law and papal pronouncemnetrs handy if someone objects. Seems to me that the pope summarily excommunicated the whole raft of the abortion types. (I'm not Catholic and don't know for sure but it seems that someone who violates life can't be a Catholic anyway)
Get tough with them. Never mind this luke warm approach. If know the teaching of the Church, and you hold views contrary to the teaching of the Church, you are by definition a heretic, You don't belong in the church. Throw them out. - Tom
Correct---but they can pretend.
Anything the gets Teddy exited sounds like a good thing to me :)
Her work is helping make things like this happen.
Please let me know if you want on or off my Pro-Life Ping List.

There is no " ex cathedra" dogma of the Catholic church that the death penalty is wrong.
Liberal Catholic heirarchy like present group are entitled to their personal opinions on policy.
If the present Pope doesn't like the death penalty that's his opinion. Until it is made a dogma by an official pronouncement a Catholic can tell him to go take a hike.
But if this anti American Pope makes it official "ex cathedra" a matter of faith and morals taught to the whole church,then if you are still in favor of the death penalty you should be thrown out of the Church.
Not likely to happen since the Catholic church has gone along with the death penalty for centuries suported it and I believe at times had some heretics executed. -Tom
The Pope is infallable in matters of faith and morals only when he speaks to the whole church, ex cathedra (out of the chair.)
If the Pope tells all Catholics not to vote for Bush because he is a war monger; that is not a matter of faith and morals and a Catholics may very well tell the Pope to butt out of America's business.
But the Churches official teaching on abortion is it is wrong in every case. So if a Catholic disagrees he is a heretic. - tom
When the pope was monarch of the larger Papal States until the 1850s, the popes regularly carried out the death penalty for the same sorts of civil crimes as most governments. John Paul II is simply not personally favorable to the death penalty. It is NOT a matter of dogma any more than is Vatican foreign policy.
By the standards you seem to apply, most churches would be "anti-American." I personally believe that the war in Iraq was just and moral. No Catholic is required to believe otherwise.
so if a know satanist comes in wearing a "Praise Satan" T-shirt you'd have to sevre him communion?

Friday the 16th of October saw Exeter welcome a new social media conference to the Westcountry – Like Minds. My company were lucky enough to be one of the local sponsors and our logo sat impressively on the big screen behind the speakers alongside the like of Magners and Starbucks – not bad exposure I say
The reason for this post is to try and reach a few more people and explain the power of using social media in your business. I've also been flying high on a wave of social media love since the conference on Friday and want to tell the world about it
A few facts first:
- The conference tackled the issue of ROI in Social Media
- There were over 200 people there
- Over 500 watched the conference on Ustream – A live stream of the event – still available here
- People interacted with the conference in real time from all over the world – Even Stephen Fry the Twitter God dropped in digitally to say 'Hi' to everyone there!
- The twitter fall, which was projected onto the screen while panelists were talking had thousands of tweets on it
- Two of the keynote speakers flew from America especially to talk at the conference
- Another keynote speaker – @darenBBC worked for the BBC for some time and was instrumental in putting Microsoft and IBM together as well as working on the iplayer!
- The last keynote speaker – @mazi is in charge of social media for SKY!
Now here's the thing – The two guys in charge of this whole event @scottgould and @drewellis didn't even know each other this time last year! They met on Twitter and through a building of trust using social media, became closer until they decided to launch likeminds together earlier in the year. Now take into account that every single one of the sponsors bought into the event and the organisers purely because of social media. None of us knew Scott or Drew this time last year but like they had done, we had met through our love of social media and innovative thinking. Amazing as this all sounds, its even more amazing to think that this WHOLE event was put on and organised using social media – not a single bit of traditional advertising was used – Scott interacted with and finally met @treypennington and @thebrandbuilder on twitter (our two American friends) and after a visit earlier in the year by Trey, they agreed to talk at the conference – Another victory for social media.
Now Exeter is not known for its conferences or foresight when it comes to technology so to get the numbers mentioned together in a room was a remarkable achievement. I've been working in Exeter for over 10 years now and never seen anything like it.
If you want to see the interest in the conference and everything it's generated since, take a look at the hashtag #likeminds on twitter here. An amazing event experience.
Social media has the power to break down barriers like nothing I've experienced before, for example I sat next to one of my competitors all day as we tweeted and retweeted each other on the twitter fall. We then shared dinner that evening (with others I have to say ;)) and it just made me marvel at how important getting 'like minded people' together really is. We have undoubtedly become closer due to social media and I'm thankful for that. I also met a lot of fantastic new people at the conference and cemented relationships with others – I literally cant wait for the next one.
Likeminds in itself was a testimony to what social media can achieve if implemented correctly. The return on investment for all involved was huge.
If you're not using Social Media in your business yet then I strongly suggest you start thinking about it. Of course, if you're stuck, then Optix Solutions can give you a helping hand

Canucks v. Kings - Round 1 Preview
Thomas Drance
April 10 2012 09:48AM
In the first round the Canucks will face an American born Vezina nominee goaltender with an unconventional style...
What can go wrong?
Throughout their mostly sordid history, the Canucks have been unable to buy a break. Now that Vancouver's hockey club ices a perennial power house, a team that has won two consecutive President's Trophies and nearly every individual award a player, General Manager and Head Coach can win - that streak of bad luck continues. Since the lockout, there have never been two more difficult eighth seeds than the 2010-11 Chicago Blackhawks, and the 2011-12 Los Angeles Kings. Of course, in the two seasons that the Canucks have a legitimate shot at hockey's holy grail, they're dealt an outrageously tough test right off the bat...
Yes, the Kings are that good. They may look like they're lacking in back-end depth (which is true), and certainly they've struggled to score goals this season, but the stew Daryl Sutter is brewing down in Hollywood still possesses some deadly ingredients.
Read past the jump for our detailed advanced stat preview...
The Los Angeles Kings rely primarily on the stellar goaltending of Jonathan Quick, who, on top of having the single most bad-ass goaltender name in the history of hockey, excels while playing an unconventional style. He's impossible to beat low, and he's extremely aggressive with his positioning and his arsenal of poke checks. He's fun to watch, and while he played poorly in the final two games of the regular season, and in last seasons playoffs - he's having a career year and has often seemed impenetrable in this campaign.
In front of Jonathan Quick, the Kings ice a physical squad that dominates puck possession, even while they struggle to score goals. The Kings play a low-event game, and allowed the fifth fewest shots against per game of any team in the league this season. While the Kings have scored with increased frequency since they acquired Jeff Carter from Columbus, their extremely low on-ice shooting percentage (significantly below 7%) indicates to me that they play a conservative offensive style.
My impression from having watched them play well over ten games this season, is that they shoot from anywhere and in particular shoot at the opposition goaltender's pads more than your average NHL team. The Kings are a club that look to produce offense off of rebounds and through traffic, and they don't bother to put themselves out of position on the rush in order to set up fancy "high-quality" looks. While the Kings do ice several skilled players who can beat you off of the rush (Anze Kopitar, Drew Doughty and Jeff Carter especially), most of their roster is better suited to battling for gritty goals in the trenches (Dustin Brown and Jason Williams especially) and for the most part that's what they look to do.
The Kings' "shoot-first, ask questions later" approach to the offensive side of the puck may serve to inflate their possession totals somewhat (while deflating their team on-ice shooting percentage), but make no mistake - this Kings side is an extremely effective puck-possession group. According to Broad Street Hockey's "score adjusted fenwick rankings" they've been the best puck possession club in the league since the deadline and are the fourth best this season overall (the Canucks a eighth).
With the score-tied, Los Angeles has controlled 54.5% of on-ice Fenwick events (the gold standard of predictive metrics, as far as I'm concerned), which, is a totally dominant number and is significantly superior to Vancouver's 53.1% score-tied Fenwick. When you combine the Kings ability to consistently dictate play, with their stellar goaltending, and their absurdly effective penalty-kill - it becomes clear just how big a threat they pose to the Canucks in the first round...
The Season Series
In four games this season, the two teams split the results, however, one of Los Angeles' victories came in the shootout while both of Vancouver's wins game in regulation. Basically, Vancouver narrowly won the season series by taking five out of a possible eight points, while the Kings managed four. That's neither here nor there, however, because regardless of whether or not the Canucks "technically" won the season series, the Kings were absolutely dominant over the course of those four games.
In the four games between the two teams this season, Los Angeles outshot the Canucks at even-strength 108-82, and managed to control 52.8% of Fenwick events. The Kings also averaged nearly seven more 5-on-5 shot attempts per game than the Canucks did.
Those results aren't inflated by the Kings "shoot from anywhere" approach either, Los Angeles controlled the "quality chances" in the season series as well, handily out-chancing the Canucks 56 to 41 at evens, and controlling 18 scoring chances to the Canucks 15 with the score-tied. Los Angeles won the special teams battle during the season series as well, killing off 15 of 18 Canucks power-plays (83.3%), and capitalizing three times on sixteen power-play chances (18.75%).
By every measure, Los Angeles deserved better from the four games in which they faced the Canucks this season and the only reason the Canucks managed to get five points out of those contests was because of Luongo, whose play was unconscious. Bobby Luu posted an absolutely ridiculous .962% even-strength save percentage against L.A. this season (Quick posted a .951 at evens against the Canucks), which, is a totally sustainable number.
If the Canucks can't find a way to stop the puck possession bleeding in the postseason series, it's going to be extremely difficult to get past the Kings. There is some hope that the Canucks were "turtling" this season, and that we've yet to see them really show up to play yet. While I have some difficulty believing that, let's hope that's the case, because all of the numbers that I trust favour the Kings...
Darryl Sutter is a quality coach, who has had a decorated career, and did well to get the Kings back on track when he took over for Terry Murray this season. That said, Vigneault is one of the leagues best, and with a team as versatile as Vancouver's - he should be able to throw some difficult looks, and some fun tactical curve balls at Los Angeles. The man behind the Canucks bench is one of Vancouver's major advantages going into this series.
This series is also where the addition of Sami Pahlsson should pay dividends. In the first three meetings of the season between the Kings and the Canucks, Murray and Sutter soft matched the Kopitar line against the Sedins, and while the Sedins managed to produce offense against the Kings this season, Kopitar's grup handily controlled possession.
In the fourth and final meeting between the clubs, however, Vigneault hard-matched the Pahlsson line against Kopitar's group, which, allowed Henrik and Daniel to face Mike Richards (who has had a surprisingly poor debut season for the Kings) and allowed Ryan Kesler to wreck havoc on the Kings bottom-6. The head-to-head ice time sheet, frankly, makes it look like Sutter wasn't even trying to win the game...
If Sutter doesn't figure out a clever way to reconfigure his bottom-six so to deal with the ability Vigneault's deployment strategies to create mismatches, the Kings will be in trouble. At the end of the day, coaching just doesn't matter as much as the on-ice talent, but in a series that is likely to be extremely close and hard-fought, every edge matters.
Jonathan Quick will be a Vezina nominee this season, and that's well deserved. Posting a .929% total save percentage in 69 starts is pretty ridiculous, and while he blew up somewhat more than you'd expect from an elite workhorse - he gave the Kings a good chance at winning over 62% of the time. That was essential for a team that struggles as much offensively as the Kings did this season.
|Total SV%
|Jonathan Quick
Roberto Luongo will start game one, and provided he plays well, he'll likely start every game in the first round. That's especially likely considering the schedule, the Canucks and Kings will play three games between Wednesday and Sunday, and then have two and three days off respectively between games four and five (*if necessary). So long as Luongo stands tall, he'll be in the Canucks net through this series...
Luongo had a strong season, posting quality starts over 60% of the time, though, he continued to struggle with consistency. He also had a relatively tough time short-handed, and while that doesn't mean very much to me analytically, it's why his overall save percentage is significantly lower than his save percentage at even-strength. Five on five, Luongo remains a force to be reckoned with.
|Total SV%
|Roberto Luongo
There's no doubt about it, the Kings have the "edge" in net going into the series, though of course, over a small sample of games anything can happen. Frankly, the Canucks don't just need Luongo to be good if they're going to win the series, they're going to need him to out-duel his counterpart, Jonathan Nimble, at the other end of the rink.
While Luongo has a reputation for less than stellar play in big situations, Jonathan Quick has had "big game" issues as well over the past several years, and as we can see from the respective blow-up percentages - both goalies have had consistency issues this season. Which goaltender will bend and which one will break? The answer to that question could well decide the series.
The Canucks managed to replace Ehrhoff's offense seamlessly this season and while they remain somewhat thin on the right side, and only have three defenseman I really trust in difficult minutes - the club's blueline group remains deep and effective.
To begin the series, the Canucks will deploy a top pairing of Alex Edler and Kevin Bieksa, while the club's two best possession defenseman, Dan Hamhuis and Chris Tanev, soak up defensive zone starts and drive play forward on the second pairing. In practice yesterday, the Canucks had Aaron Rome and Sami Salo skating together as the third pairing.
I'll be curious to see whether or not Vigneault sticks with these pairs for the most part (and then goes to Salo-Hamhuis to play big defensive zone starts in the third period of close games), or whether or not the club reunites Bieksa-Hamhuis at some point in the series. Bieksa and Hamhuis are one of the leagues best two-way defensive pairings, they form a hybrid shutdown unit (they'll suffocate the oppositions top-players, and they can produce offense) that was essential in the team's run to the Stanley Cup Finals last season.
For Los Angeles, it all starts with Drew Doughty who quietly had a pretty good season. Doughty sees a steady diet of top-competition, and while he didn't manage to break forty points this year, I'd chalk that up to the percentages (5.7% on-ice shooting). From a possession stand-point - Doughty remains an absolute beast, and he's one of the best pure skaters in the NHL at the moment. All too often we've seen that the team with the most dominant defenseman wins the playoff series, and while the Canucks have managed to take advantage of Doughty's... let's call it "youthful exuberance" in the past, he has the talent to shutdown the twins and take over this series.
The Canucks agitate the living hell out of Doughty, and he got into it this season with the likes of Burrows (repeatedly), Bieksa (repeatedly), Daniel Sedin and Maxim Lapierre. That's not a coincidence, the Canucks clearly make a game-plan of waging "mental warfare" to try and get Doughty off of his game. Doughty is going to need to be disciplined and stay on the ice, because if the Canucks get under his skin (and are able to face a few Doughty-less L.A. Kings PK units) that plays right into their hand.
Doughty's usual partner is Rob Scuderi, a steady veteran who won a Stanley Cup with the Penguins. The Kings second pairing consists of Willie Mitchell, whose long reach helps frustrate opponents, but is also where breakout passes go to die and young puck-mover Slava Voynov. Voynov is a really good possession player though, my impression is that he puts himself in positions to get leveled too often. Still, Voynov had a two point game on New Years Eve, and has looked exceedingly dangerous against the Canucks this season.
The Kings third pair consists of Matt Greene and Alec Martinez. Martinez is an unbelievably good possession player, but based on his Ozone start% and low quality of competition - it's clear that Sutter doesn't trust him against opponents top players. Greene on the other hand is a useful pugilist, and penalty-killer who can be trusted in defensive situations against bottom six opponents.
I've seen lots of people giving the Canucks the edge on defense, but I think it's a wash. The Kings have the best overall defenseman in the series in Doughty, and have four defenders I'd trust in tough minutes (Doughty, Voynov, Scuderi and Mitchell). The Canucks have better quality 1 through 3 in Edler, Bieksa and Hamhuis, a lot more depth (if any L.A. defender goes down, they'll put in Davis Drewiskie - after that - who knows) and get significantly more offense from their d-men. All of that evens the scale up somewhat so, I think this is a push, but I'd maybe give the Kings a slight edge.
There aren't many NHL players I enjoy watching more than Anze Kopitar. He's big, he's a wicked possession player, he's got some nasty moves in close and he's got an absolute rifle of a shot. He also battles hard, and I really enjoyed watching him and Henrik do battle in several games this season. In this series, however, Kopitar and his line-mates Dustin Brown and Justin Williams, will face the human clutch and grab machine that is Samme "The Cooler" Pahlsson and his counterattacking wingers Jannik Hansen and Chris Higgins.
It's the most important matchup, as I see it, of the entire series. Would the Kings dominance of the season series (by the underlying numbers) have been as extreme if they'd faced a Canucks side with Pahlsson on it four times, instead of just one? I'm not sure but if "The Cooler line" of Higgins, Hansen and Pahlsson can reliably turn play the other way against the Kopitar line, and maybe even pitch in some offense - the Canucks are going to be in a good spot.
Daniel Sedin looks to be returning to the lineup in time for game one, which, is essential especially for the Canucks anemic power-play. I expect the Sedins will see an awful lot of Mike Richards, who, for reasons I can't quite explain had a really bad season this year. Richards finished underwater (very odd for him), despite facing second-line competition and being deployed in a two-way fashion. That has to be a concern for the Kings going into this series, and if Richards can't find his game, and regularly pin the twins in the Canucks end, this could be over in a hurry.
Vigneault is going to find ways to get Kesler, Booth and Raymond a lot of shifts against the Stoll line and the Colin Fraser line. It's going to be key for the Canucks that Kesler finds his offensive game, and that this group takes advantages of the match-ups and produces some points. The Kings third line of Jarred Stoll, Dustin Penner and either Trevor Lewis or Brad Richardson is under-rated somewhat, while they don't play against difficult competition - they can be counted on, I think, to put in some quality shifts against Kesler's group and Vancouver's fourth line.
Kings fourth liner Kyle Clifford has a long history of annoying Canucks fans, and players with his collection of cheap-shots and his (I admit this grudgingly) complete reluctance to backdown. In the past he's injured Chris Tanev with a dirty hit, tackled Keith Ballard and run Roberto Luongo. It'll be interesting to see if Byron Bitz - who looks like he'll get the start on the fourth line alongside Maxim Lapierre and Manny Malhotra - can keep Clifford in line. If Bitz can't, and the power-play can't get going then I'll expect the denizens of Vancouver to spend much of this series cursing the name "Clifford!"
There's no doubt about it - the Canucks have the superior personnel up front. In fact, when it comes to the forward group, I think the Canucks are something of a nightmare matchup for the Kings. If all goes according to plan, Pahlsson's line should be able to play Kopitar's to a draw, the Sedins should be able to produce offense against big Dwight King, Jeff Carter and Mike Richards, and Kesler should be able to do the same against the Kings bottom-six. While I suspect all of that is likely to happen, whether or not the forwards will be able to beat Jonathan Quick - well, that's another story.
If I didn't trust the numbers that we use on a daily basis here at Canucks Army, then I wouldn't use them so much. While it pains me to say this, I think the Canucks are going to have a very difficult time getting out of the first round. Vancouver's club is clearly elite, the problem is that L.A.'s club is pretty damn good too (despite their slow start to the season, which, inconveniently has caused them to end up inappropriately low in the playoff pecking order).
Ultimately, the Kings are the superior possession team, and show better by the best predictive metrics than the Canucks do. To make matters worse, the quality and style of their goaltending, their superior penalty-killing, and their overall team size makes them a particularly tough matchup for Vancouver's club.
While we can always hope for the best, and certainly I hope that I've misread the tea leaves here, based on the underlying numbers and the way the Kings pulverized the Canucks during the season series, I'm going to have to take the Kings to triumph in six over the Canucks.
Good analysis, and of course hope prediction is not accurate. My concern is that this is the year the Kings should make a leap by winning one or more series (like Nashville last year - one of the reasons they are a favourite to win the west). Offsetting this concern is that the Kings blew their chance at the third sees, by losing 3 of 4 at the end, with Quick giving up 8 goals in two games - maybe it is his playoff jitters.
Overall, it seems the Canucks have been on cruise control since the Boston game, winning mostly one goal games, with a long stretch of OT/SO games. Like the Bruins, they were safe in second place for most of the winter. The premise that their will be another long run this spring is that they can and will raise their game more than the other teams who have been fighting for playoff positioning. If this is so, then the stats are less meaningful. It is a big IF.
In terms of specifics, I am curious to see if Edler can make the leap, that he appears ready to make, in his game. If he can (another if), then Doughty might not be the most important d-man in this series.
Yeah, I was desperately hoping for the Coyotes (or Dallas). Even SJ at least would mean less reliable goaltending. But the Kings do represent a version of the bruising play, and tight defense with great goaltending, that served the Bruins so well in the SCF. Doughty is one of the players I love to watch the most, even if he can be irritating between the whistles. Btw, I watched some of the last game between the Kings and SJ, and thought I saw Willie Mitchell out on the powerplay!
Great review, even if it does put our fears into black and white. Do you know if the Canucks PP has actually stopped producing as many shots per 60 min, or can we hope that they are simply in a stretch of bad luck?
Yeah! The two most common outcomes are and Vancouver 7 & L.A. 6
However, many inaccurate judgments. "the Canucks managed to replace Ehrhoff's offense seamlessly this season" did you account for the significant injuries and games loss to top 4 last year? If not, convenient omission.
"Ehrhoff misses the Canucks, more than they miss him)" simply inaccurate.
Ehroff replaced by Salo/Rome Seriously, nothing more said.
What is overlooked is Ehrhoff's puck possession which leads to less shots against. 2011 Canucks and 2012 Canucks is shots against. Could you try to explain this?
It happens to be the major difference in the series LA strong defense over Vancouver's weaker defense without Ehrhoff or a equal replacement,
The Canucks significant drop in Pos. F from last year with better forwards, better health only major change Ehrhoff...can you see it now>
Kings have goaltending edge? really? Quick is overrated. Behind much stronger D. much lower career sve% unproven in playoffs. regressed to career norm over last 27 gp...could try looking a little deeper.
Bottom Line: You put a lot of work in but still seem intent to have an idea in your head that you try to justify with hockey anyalitcs... would do better to let these biases go.
I suggest you read this
I dunno Thom, I trust your analysis and think you have a much better grasp on advanced stats than I do, but is a 1.4% advantage in Fenwick events really that dramatic? Wouldn't that only translate to several events (for and against)a game? Are two or three extra shots really that pivotal in the grand scheme of things? Fenwick doesn't account for quality of the events, so what's to say that any of the extra events would have an impact at all? I think it's a good metric, and it's very useful as a predictor, but I'm not so sure it's the be all end all for hockey prognostication.
I'm also not so sure the season series is particularly relevant, considering both teams have different personnel (LA also changed coaches) and the one post-deadline game is too small a sample size to draw conclusions from.
First, I was going to hug you cause of this amazing analysis. Then I saw the 'prediction' and cried.
I quite enjoy your posts, I read all of them, and I believe in the underlying numbers. So I am scurrrrred of the Kings for the reasons you mentioned.
Personally, if the hockey gods won't allow the Canucks to win the Cup this year, I'd rather have them cut in the 1st round. They can actually have a summer to train, relax and refresh. Additionally, us Canucks fans can collectively and finally take aim at Gillis for the crappy trades he made this year and his crappy drafting since he joined the Canucks.
The Kings' possession numbers are much better at home than on the road, so here's hoping that there's some homecooking going on with the shot counting. If not, the Canucks are in for a very rough ride.

Crappy trades? What the hell are you talking about? Higgins, Lapierre, Booth and Pahlsson are all huge parts of this team and were all steals. Just because he traded Hodgson doesn't mean he's a terrible GM, get a grip.

A substantial literature investigates conditional conservatism, defined as asymmetric accounting recognition of economic shocks ("news"), and how it depends on various market, political and institutional variables. Studies typically assume the Basu (1997) asymmetric timeliness coefficient (the incremental slope on negative returns in a piecewise-linear regression of accounting income on stock returns) is a valid conditional conservatism measure. We analyze the measure's validity, in the context of a model with accounting income incorporating different types of information with different lags, and with noise. We demonstrate that the asymmetric timeliness coefficient varies with firm characteristics affecting their information environments, such as the length of the firm's operating and investment cycles, and its degree of diversification. We particularly examine one characteristic, the extent to which "unbooked" information (such as revised expectations about rents and growth options) is independent of other information, and discuss the conditions under which a proxy for this characteristic is the market-to-book ratio. We also conclude that much criticism of the Basu regression misconstrues researchers' objectives.

text: : Hello,: I have a 40 year old house with cast iron DWV pipes. I am currently remodelling the bathrooms (1.5 baths). When removing the linoleum I discovered the subflooring was water damaged, so I am planning to replace. Is the correct procedure to (1) break out the old cast iron flange, (2) remove/replace subfloor, (3) install new flange?: A few more questions -: 1. when breaking out the cast iron flange, will the lead/oakum seal come out cleanly? is it tricky to remove?: 2. should I consider replacing the cast iron flange with PVC flange and adapter instead?: 3. should I consider replacing the entire main drain with PVC?: 4. should I leave the cast iron work to a professional?: Thanks

BLM oil and gas lease sale nets $2.1 million
DENVER - Today the Bureau of Land Management Colorado State Office sold 111 parcels totaling 68,897 acres for $2.1 million including rentals and fees at its quarterly oil and gas lease sale. The highest per-acre price was for an 80-acre parcel in Bent County was sold to Martin Oil and Gas, in Uniontown PA for $300 per acre.
The State of Colorado will receive 49 percent of the proceeds of the sale, with the remainder going to the U.S. government. The State of Colorado received more than $158 million in Fiscal Year 2012 from royalties, rentals and bonus bid payments for all federal minerals, including oil and gas. BLM Colorado currently has approximately 4.2 million acres of public mineral estate leased for oil and natural gas development, generating more than $6.5 billion in direct economic benefits in 2011, and approximately $9.5 billion in total economic impacts.
A lease is the first step for a company or individual before eventually applying to develop and produce oil and gas from the BLM-managed public mineral estate. Additional planning, environmental analysis and public input must occur before drilling can begin.
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of Americas public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2015, the BLM generated $4.1 billion in receipts from activities occurring on public lands.

Miss Emery Shelby Huntington and her Little Miss Cambrie Bennett recently competed in the Miss Utah competition held at the Capitol Theatre in Salt Lake. The 54 contestants spent the week in rehearsal, competition, service and television appearances. Saturday evening after everything was complete a new Miss Utah was crowned, Miss Utah County Christine Lowe will represent Utah for 2010 and also at the Miss America pageant. She was the Wednesday night preliminary winner for talent for her vocal performance of Believe.
Huntington said, "My experience at Miss Utah was definitely one that I will always remember. I got to participate in many different activities as well as meet so many amazing young women. We kicked off the week with the Show Me Your Shoes Bash which is a Miss Utah tradition and this was the beginning of a great week. This is a place where everyone can relax and have fun and it was fun to get to know the girls and where they come from by what they created with a pair of shoes. It is very interesting to watch this because a lot of personality comes out. I had a blast here and this is where I met most of the girls that I stayed close with for the rest of the week. It is just an easy going parade of shoes and then fun filled night of dancing and playing around. We did many other things throughout the week that I enjoyed a lot too.
"My next favorite thing was probably the Challenge Day Activity we had on Tuesday night. Miss Utah 2009, Whitney Merrifield, introduced us to her platform and gave us a little piece of what she would take into schools on a regular Challenge Day. It was a lot of fun but also became very powerful and emotional for all of the girls. We shared things about ourselves that were silly, fun, and personal. A wide spectrum of information was opened up that night and every single one of us was closer because of it. The whole week was very fun and busy going to rehearsals and events but all in all I had a blast. I hope to keep in touch with the friends I made there and wish them all luck in their future endeavors. They are all amazing girls and it is definitely an experience that I will cherish the rest of my life," said Huntington.
Huntington's talent was a dance to the song, Last Dance.
Kristine Johansen was also a contestant in Miss Utah. She is formerly of Castle Dale and now resides in Provo where she has reigned as Miss Provo for the past year.
Cambrie Bennett, Little Miss Emery, accompanied Miss Emery to the Miss Utah competition. The Little Misses danced each night in their production number and escorted their contestant on her evening wear night.

(pronounced Ing' ah) came to Cleveland Metroparks Zoo in 1997 from the
Addo Elephant National Park in South Africa. Since her arrival, Inge has
given birth to four
rhino calves, including her latest offspring born July 11, 2007. Her
keepers describe Inge as a "good mother." Her move to the Zoo was
through a cooperative agreement with the South African government so she
could breed with male rhino Spike, who sired Inge's
first two offspring, Azizi, who now resides at the Pittsburgh Zoo, and Kibibi. Spike moved to Potter
Park Zoo in Lansing, Michigan, where he passed away in 2008.
only the second black rhino ever born at Cleveland Metroparks Zoo,
Kibibi won the hearts of many Zoo employees, visitors and volunteers
when she arrived. Described as a precocious youngster, Kibibi is the
half-sister to the Zoo's two youngest rhinos including the new baby born
on August 17, 2010. Kibibi also enjoys painting to benefit rhino
conservation projects. She uses her prehensile upper lip to spread paint
across the canvas, and her keepers say her technique
has advanced with practice. Her mother is Inge, and her father is Spike,
who now lives at Potter Park Zoo. Kibibi gave birth to Juba, her first calf, on July 1, 2012.

Here's a quick pick of me, the mate and the 32 foot Ocean Master named 'Stress Reeliever' we fish and love!
Fishing Reports:
April 7th 2010
We've been off the last week putting in a new sonar, and steering system, so it was nice to get back out on the water. We had a pretty good day today, releasing 5 Roosterfish, a monster Barracuda and a Big Eye Jack. We hooked up about 100 times but today the Roosters were tricky! Luckily there were so many shots we got quite a few to the boat. We had a great day cruising around the tropical islands right near the beach. I think the customers had more fun today seeing the exotic scenery than hooking in to the fish! There are a couple of islands we fish on that have the caves near the water, and blow holes that violently shoot water up in the air as you pass by. It makes for some awesome scenery and I am truly blessed to call this my office! Another great day fishing in beautiful and sunny Costa Rica!
March 26 2010
Had a great day fishing offshore. The fishing was really far out, but well worth the trip. We hooked 4 out of 5 sailfish that got behind the boat, and also got a really nice Dorado. The highlight of the day was when we had a younger girl, about 13, reel in her first sailfish. And once again, with her dad and Rudy coaching her, she got it all the way into the boat by herself, just like a seasoned veteran! The first picture is of her, her proud father and Rudy! Another great day on the water, looking forward to April and May. Here's some pictures from beautiful and sunny Quepos Costa Rica!
March 19 2010
Been sick for the last week, but it was nice getting back out on the water today. We hosted a bachelor fishing party today, and man were the fish biting! Had a great day inshore, probably hooked about 20 Roosterfish, and we released 8 Roosterfish, 1 Snapper, and a Snook. I can't wait to get back offshore so i can put some more sailfish photos up here for you guys. I have been talking to some of he other boat captains, and they say there are lots of sails to be caught. Well, here's a picture of one of the Roosterfish. Sorry i'm still groggy from the antibotics so i didn't come down to shoot more pictures. But more to come soon!
March 10 2010
Had a great day out today! We spent all morning fighting a truly big Marlin. What a monster hookup. We went out 40 miles today, and got straight to the bait hunting. Not a moment after we had the lines all full lively small bonitas, did Rudy see one of our newly placed baits flying through the air. He lowered the drag on the pole waiting for the bite, and then I hear the reel start whirring like a small electric motor. He raised the break up and hooked the fish and we saw a huge splash behind the boat as the fish jumped out of the water. Then about half a second later the fish jumped again next to the boat and then anohter half a second later and the fish jumped 100 yards IN FRONT of the boat. He was moving so fast that he was still dragging off line towards the back of the boat as he was running forward. I got the boat in gear and throttled up and the fight was on! We chased him down only after he pulled off about 600 yards of line. The customers took turns fighting him all morning, until everyone finally wore out, and then they handed if off to Rudy. Rudy, like a kid in a candy store, starts reeling and pulling and about 20 minutes later we have the fish within 15 feet of the boat. It is huge, at least 12 feet long, and was an awesome sight. We made it all the way to the shock leader until the fish went crazy and the leader just couldn't take any more and gave out. I have to admit, this is the first time I've had a leader break since I started using Yo Zuri Floro Carbon. I'd say the fish jumped about 25 times though, so overall the leader did ok. Not the happiest ending, but we got through all the fight. This week has been amazing for fishing. The last two weeks of February were a bit slow (really strange for this time of the year), so we were super excited the fish started biting again! We hooked up with 5 sailfish yesterday, 4 monster big tunas the day before. We had an inshore day this week with 35 fish and one with 25 fish. It's been really great fishing and I'm looking forward to a super busy April through May. Well, here's some pictures, sorry, no Marlin pictures, I was only 10 feet from getting him to the boat so I didn't think to take pictures. Check out the big tuna though. Great times here on the water in Quepos!

How-To Geek
Here's Why Disabling the Windows Pagefile is Pointless
For years, Windows tweaking people have tried to convince everybody that if you disable the pagefile, you'll get a big performance boost. One of our readers did a ton of testing to prove that this is not true.
Reader Eric did comprehensive testing using various test suites, boot and shutdown, and other testing to see whether disabling the page file break your system or give a performance boost.
- You can run Windows without a pagefile if you have enough RAM.
- There's pretty much zero benefit to disabling the pagefile.
You should definitely check out the full (very long) article for all the details.
The Windows 7 Pagefile And Running Without One [TweakHound]
Comments (33)
I turn mine off only because I need more space because I'm running windows off of an SSD, that seems like a legit reason.
i've disabled it because i have 16gb ram on a 60gb ssd, it makes a huge difference in free space
The Pagefile is there so you don't have to have 16G of RAM to get decent performance. Fitting 16G and a SSD to get performance certainly works but its not very cost effective.
I have 12 GB Ram and an SSD, Im not going to turn on that pagefile, its horrible for my SSD's lifespan.
Fun Linux only trick that is related:
Create a compressed ram disk and put the page file there. Faster than SSD, almost as fast as real memory (just a little CPU overhead) and more room to play than just turning off swap! Can Win 7 do that? I am not sure, I haven't tried Windows 7 out yet.
@ Grant… What a smug tosser you are…
I agree. Disabling the page file is somewhat pointless as long as you have enough RAM to compensate. About the best you can expect is to gain an increase in available hard drive space. But again that assumes you have enough RAM to compensate. You may actually regret disabling the swap file especially if you're the type of user who minimizes running apps rather than close them – a habit that can potentially tax a system's available resources. So it really comes down to what resources your system needs and what's being loaded into memory.
But if you need a little more hard drive space then you might also look into disabling the hibernation features too. Hibernation uses a rather large hidden file just like the swap file. In fact, if your system's BIOS can't deal with simple API specifications then disabling hibernation would be my first suggestion. But it's still somewhat pointless since purchasing more hard drive real estate is probably easier and even cheaper than trying to tweak your Windows settings.
(I assume we're talking about Windows here since that's the only OS I am aware of that actually uses a swap file – unlike most xNix's including OSX which use an entire partition. Hint, hint Microsoft.)
One other point I think a few people have already mentioned, you do want to, and should disable the swap file if you use an SSD! It seems silly but the reason is so you don't prematurely wear it out.
You'd think that an entire hard drive made out of RAM – which is essentially what an SSD is – wouldn't wear out. But you'd be wrong. An SSD (Solid State Drive) will give a significant performance increase over a conventional hard drive and it's even somewhat immune to physical shock like dropping it too (not electrical shock). However, an SSD will wear out faster and that's one very good reason to disable anything that wants to constantly read and write to a drive – like the swap file.
I think a lot of people are forgetting that you can move the swap file to another drive. If you're worried about using up too much space on your SSD, buy a cheap standard SATA drive, and reconfigure the swap file on there.
You're not limited to running the swap file on C:. You can put it on D,E F. Whatever you wish. You can even span multiple disks.
Anyone wanting to follow the example of nt0xik8ed and Kodess need to be sure they have a 64-bit version of Windows. The 32-bit version maxes out at 4gb of RAM – anything beyond that is a waste of money as it will never be used.
Thanks man! Thats the ture fact. People thinks more swap = more performance. But I dont want to loose my 4GB hdd space for pagefile. Im running without it :)
I usually max it not turn it off
One tweak that is worthwhile if you have a swapfile is to set it to one size – ie the min & max numbers are the same – normally I set it to the maximum that Windows recommends. The reason is that otherwise the swapfile expands and contracts as Windows decides more or less is needed and as the hardrive fills the swapfile becomes fragmented – which then has a big effect on performance.
SSD users that's what TRIM is for (though I'm sure some will debate that), also realistically you will probably replace that SSD with cheaper higher performance, larger capacity drive long before it wears out. (Been using the Same SSD for over 2 years with no issue and am replacing mine with one with twice the memory at half the price, but not for performance reasons).
Linux guy -YES you can create a RAM drive (you just have to know DOS) and put a swap file in there (haven not tried compressing one -though I'll put that on the list)
Also with regard to partitions- While I agree that MS should put the Swapfile on it't own partition it is trivial to do so in Windows.
I am running Vista 32-bit; I use a single static page file (Initial size = max size = 4095 GB) and store it on a separate drive; also use Defraggler to defragment it at startup. Good results.
FYI, it was said there was no performance benefit to running without a pagefile. Not that there would be a performance drop. In the article, he mentions it is perfectly reasonable to disable the pagefile if the space taken is a concern, assuming you have enough RAM that windows won't run out.
As others have mentioned you can move the pagefile to another drive, or you can just disable it. All that is said in the article, is you won't see any improvements in speed or performance in doing so.
Help Folks:
My 32 bit system has 2GB extra RAM. It is configured now as ReadyBoost RAM disk. I tried to move page file to RAM disk but it would not boot. Most "tips" suggest disabling the page file to move it. Disaster. Can I put the page file on a RAM disk? The data is stored on C:RAMsys file but how to tell Windows where it is, and to move it. Is it worth it?
With 8 GB of RAM on my Win 7/64 quadcore AMD I turned off page file so that I would reduce the wear and tear on my hard drive. I became interested when doing some HP scanning was limited because it would only write to my C Drive and wanted to use about 12 GB of space which wasn't there so I had to kluge the system. I have not noticed performance issues before or after this change but it works so why mess it with.
I thought the read/write cycles on SSD's was quite robust? Would expected mean time to failure be even less than when using a hard drive? Seems to go against what digital vs mechanical is all about?
@bobbo: The write longevity of HDDs generally isn't an issue because the chances are they'll fail mechanically before the magnetic media degrades. On the other hand SSDs are unlikely to break down but do gradually degrade in performance, so the read/write limit becomes a more meaningful (and possibly more predictable) measure of lifespan. Given that, I guess it makes sense to extend the life of an SSD by limiting write activity where possible.
Article is misleading as author does say there is a benefit…
Seriously though, paging and the page file do 3 things.
1 – Use disk space.
2 – Cause disk activity (reading/writing, but mostly reading).
3 – Use CPU cycles.
Optimizing and/or eliminating the page file can reduce these.
/end snip
Pagefile system serves a purpose. You have more Ram, cool, but it still serves a purpose. Better to think in ways that maintain your computers speed at it's best, Especially if you run 32 bit and 3.5 gigs (or less) of useable Ram.
Set Page file to none on occasion, reboot then defrag and reset your pagefile to the recommended size(You can play with the size, to see if it makes a difference).
Drives are too cheap not to install a second drive, then you can move your Documents to d:(or whatever) and start installing new programs and/or moving your old programs to the new drive.
Also, if speed and space are a concern, get rid of old uninstallers and resize your windows recovery down to a smaller percentage of the drive.
Clean Temp folders often.
Use your msconfig to keep your computer running lean.
Just installed my first digital drive . . . I'm sure I'll have an opinion soon . . . Can wait to see how fast I can break it.
well, so simply.from what you've just said. it's almost a waste of time to think of whether you should keep it or not
First off a big Thank You to How-To Geek for posting a link to my article.
I wanted to clear a few things up for the posters here (it's obvious some folks didn't read the whole article):
1 – I think my conclusion was rather plain. There is no performance benefit to removing the pagefile. I believe the results of the benchmarks also showed there is nothing to be gained by having one IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH RAM to cover any situation you may encounter. That is what all the "test it yourself" was about.
2 – To "Guest on October 11, 2011 2:34 pm". Really, that is as far as you got? :rolleyes:
3 – I addressed this in my comments section.
"Although I understand the concern over writes to an SSD it is my personal belief that this is no longer a concern with modern SSD's.
See The SSD Relapse: Understanding and Choosing the Best SSD from AnandTech for why.
But if this is your reason for disabling the pagefile and you have enough RAM I wouldn't argue with you about it. It's your rig after all."
4 – PLEASE read the Important Links and the Slides from Mark Russinovich at PDC 2010 sections!
Thanks, Eric.
why do people still think that writing a page file to a SSD is so bad? SSD provide the best performance for a page file and MS even recommends putting it there. The point of a drive is to be written to.
I usually disable the page file system, then defrag the hard drive then I reinable the page sys file. When you defrag the hdd using the windows defrag tool, it will not defrag the swap file. Often the swap file can be severely fragmented and will slow down your system as the system checks the page sys file for items it stored there and want to retrive. It will take longer to retreive data from a fragmented swap file. I only use a swapfile on a system that does not have enough ram to run all the applications that are normally run.
16Gig ram
Pagefile was 25gig big on my SSD (ssd is 120gig)
/thats/ why I disable my pagefile.
So please dont convince me to put it back on.
You probably don't need a pagefile with that much RAM :) but you could shrink the file and still use it.
I found a program to keep the pagefile down to
half the normal size.
I found another free program by sysinternals that
defrags pagefile on startup.
Works good and Im happy with the results.
Actually, everything I've read seems to indicate that SSD last LONGER than a conventional hard drive, because there are no moving parts! Maybe I am only reading the SSD vendor's glossy propaganda, but it does make sense.
Sorry, I need to post a quick follow-up: There are two types of SSD's, MLC and SLC. The MLC's are cheaper and do seem to present a lot of reliablity problems. The SLC's are pretty expensive, but if you have one of those, then you shouldn't worry too much about wear.
My opinion is that the purpose of a ssd is to speed up all disk operations, including a pagefile. A SSD is meant to be used. They are many times faster than a conventional drive, so the real question is why wouldn't you use it? There are really only a few negatives that I can think of… 1) The drive wears out. This is complete bunk. A typical SSD has plenty of write cycles on it and is overprovisioned with extra memory for bad cells. When you combine that with algorithms that do wear leveling, I seriously doubt it's an issue. 2) The other reason is that SSD's tend to slow down over time from constant read/write cycles. This one is actually true. A secret in the SSD world is that all SSD's slow down over time. Especially write performance. So, this is a semi-legitimate reason to not have a page file on a SSD.
So, after a lot more research than most people put into this question, my final conclusion is this… It depends on two factors….
1) Your actual memory relative to how much memory you use
2) How big your SSD is.
A) If you have more than enough memory for you usage, then the typical pagefile usage is much more writes than reads. That's bad for SSD's.
B) If you have a decent amount of memory, but your peak loads sometimes are more than your actual memory. In this case, the OS will actually eject memory pages and use the disk to read when it needs the memory again. In this case, there will be mostly writes, but some reads as well. If you have plenty of space on the SSD, I recommend using the SSD for the page file. If you don't have enough space on your SSD, and you have access to a second drive for a paging file, use a conventional hard drive for the pagefile. If you are on a laptop with no room for an additional hard drive, then, I would put a paging file on the SSD unless the SSD is too small. In that case, I would use a smaller pagefile. Having a pagefile is better than an OS crash because it ran out of memory.
3) You have less memory than your typical application needs. In this case, SSD on the paging file is a good idea, but honestly, get more ram. Ram is much cheaper and cost-effective way to get system performance than a SSD. Max out your ram before even considering a SSD. After all, even with a SSD, it's not anywhere near the same speed as ram and the best way to get the fastest pagefile performance is to not use it.
Finally, with regards to pagefile size, the OS uses a ridiculous multiple for sizing when there is a lot of ram. I recommend a pagefile that is the same size as your ram set if you have more ram than your typical application needs. That way it is easy for your OS to map pages out to disk. I only recommend using more than 1x your ram if you have a severe shortage of physical ram. Honestly, if you are using that much swap, then you need to upgrade the ram.
I hope this debunks some of the myths regards to paging files. I am an admin, system developer, and application coder, so I have studied this issue probably more than most. I hope it helps.
Oh, and I forgot to add in my A point, that even though it is bad for the write performance, I still use a pagefile on my SSD. If the pagefile doesn't kill the write performance, something else would. I'm not going to not use my SSD because it slows down over time. Every couple of 5-6 months after I do my image backups, I do a secure erase and reimage my drive back to the SSD. It verifies my backup is good and it "refreshes" the write performance.
Finally, with regards to Bonetaps points, I don't know if I agree.
Hard drives tend to work very reliably after the first few months if they are kept under two conditions.
1) Vibration free
2) Cool
Many conventional drives get damaged during shipping and can cause failures from that which usually show up in the first few months of drive usage. But the main factor which enables me to trust hard drives over ssd is that conventional Hard drives are recoverable, SSD's are NOT. When an SSD goes, it is gone. This is a serious issue that cannot be overstated. I tend to put my data on conventional drives and my applications/os on my SSD. I trust my hard drive over my SSD in terms of reliability.
Also, SSD's are not mature yet. There are a lot of reasons that SSD's fail and in my experience in the field, they fail much more than standard drives.

Wayland Baptist University began more than a century ago as the dream of pioneers who respected the life-altering value of education. In 1906 the Staked Plains Baptists Association received and acted upon a proposal to establish a school on 25 acres of land in Plainview. After a financial and land donation from Dr. and Mrs. James Henry Wayland, and additional money given by the citizens of Plainview, Wayland Baptist University was born.
Throughout its existence, Wayland has established a pioneering tradition few colleges or universities can match. Wayland was among the first institutions in the
country to:
In addition, Wayland is recognized for its traditional excellence in a number of areas and for a range of offerings. For example:
has achieved international acclaim. In 2006 the Wayland Band was the only U.S. college band invited to Russia for the Victory Day celebration of the end of WW II. And in 2003 the entire music department performed at Spanish Baptist missionary churches in Valencia and Madrid, Spain.
Wayland Athletics an annual source of pride and success at the national level. The intercollegiate athletics teams at Wayland Baptist have produced more than 800 All-Americans, 25 NAIA national basketball tournament appearances, countless conference championships, and more than 100 individual national champions.
Performing arts come alive every year. The Christian University Theatre Festival brings together up to four Christian university theatre departments for three days of plays, passion, talent, and collaboration.

"Not Bad for an Atheist"
We called out for your suggestions for the five-word acceptance speech at the Webby Awards. We received hundreds of suggestions on the blog and via e-mail. I had a few favorites — some slightly brash ("Two are better than one."), others literate ("Our barbaric yawp was heard."), and a few wise ones ("Knowledge speaks but wisdom listens").
In the end, I was challenged by a trusted friend to practice what I preach to Krista and our staff: disclose and reveal. The Webbys are a tad irreverent, and, being a bit of a showman who aims to please the crowd, I opted for a humorous, somewhat ironic five words — knowing the sequencing progression from our 2005 win helped.
To be honest, I became a tad anxious after I delivered it, worrying that Krista or some of you might take offense. Thankfully, she was gracious upon my return; hopefully you will be too. I'd love to hear your comments.
The video above was taken with a digital phone and uploaded directly to our Vimeo account. As you can see, our table was only 20-odd rounders to the right of Stephen Colbert, David Byrne, will.i.am, and other celebs. "Just a bit outside…" (to quote Bob Ueker in Major League).

By COREY BLUEMELStaff Writer
The Emery County Commissioners met with local ATV enthusiasts in a special meeting recently. Commissioners Gary Kofford and Drew Sitterud were present, also present was Public Lands Director Ray Petersen.
This meeting was held at the request of the ATV community to meet with the commissioners and present a request to designate some county roads open for ATV use. The reasoning behind this request is to facilitate access of forest service and BLM roads directly from the cities in the county.
Commissioner Sitterud welcomed all present and then turned the time to Mark H. Williams from the Southeast Utah OHV Club to make his presentation. Williams made a formal request to open the county roads to ATV travel that connect city roads with forest service and BLM roads. Williams explained that he and Lee Swasey had met with the former county commission several years ago to discuss the possibility of the Castle Valley Trail System. Williams also explained that some cities in the county have begun to look at or already have some planning for such a road designation.
Swasey suggested the creation of a set of maps in which all county class B roads are open to ATV use. He stated that the county and the BLM would have to come to some agreement on an ordinance for these roads that would be used to access existing trails.
Williams then gave an example, the Castle Dale-Orangeville road of Bott Lane. He suggested that if this road was open for ATVs, visitors could access the trails outside of the towns directly from town. He also stated that the club is willing to obtain grant money and donate its own money to help with the signage.
Glenys Sitterud informed the commissioners that in Emery Town all roads are open to ATV use unless a problem arises.
Randall Stilson explained that Orangeville City has an ordinance in place at present and requested that the county designate some of the roads leading into and out of Orangeville open. He stated that Orangeville is willing to help with signs. Stilson also informed the commissioners that Orangeville's ordinance requires that ATV riders on their streets must be a legally licensed driver. Stilson also passed out a map of the roads in Orangeville and the extending county roads in question to connect to the access roads. He also suggested that a temporary resolution be adopted until the whole situation can be investigated and the county officials can come together on a solution.
Petersen informed the group that by Utah state law, unless a road is designated open for ATV use, it is illegal to ride ATVs on that road.
Carol Ware informed the group that Utah County has an ordinance in place that may be a model. It includes a large fine for those who break the rules. Emery County is a prime area for ATV use and we need to address the situation.
Williams gave the commissioners a letter he recently received stating the grant the county had applied for in 2000 had been cancelled because it had not been utilized. The grant was awarded for study of locations for play areas. He informed the commissioners that if they wanted to reapply, the deadline is May 1.
Ware stressed the need for the entire county to work together.
Petersen stated that he understands the need for outlying gravel roads, but has concerns with some of the two lane paved roads that are high impact use roads.
Glenys Sitterud added that the revenue to the cities from ATV users and visitors is quite substantial and anything that could be done to accommodate their needs would be useful.
Paul Conover informed the group that with proper management and patrol, the ATV situation could be managed satisfactorily. He expressed that a friendly ordinance is needed for the visitors to the area. Conover also stated that the parents of the youth need to be responsible and supervise the young people who ride ATVs. He feels that with strong penalties and proper signage along with law enforcement, the situation could be handled.
Stilson again pointed out that safety is the number one issue.
Mayor Thayne Cox from Orangeville stated that Orangeville is committed to make a trail system and to make this idea work but they need the county's backing.
Rex Funk would favor more investigation and start with some limited access as an experiment. The key is to look at all options.
Williams pointed out to the group that an ATV jamboree will be held in Ferron in August and some resolution should come before that date for implementation to accommodate the visitors to Emery County at that time.
Commissioner Sitterud suggested that he invite all the mayors and councils from across the county to discuss this issue and gather enough information to form a county wide consensus. He stated the need for consistency, organization and cooperation from everyone concerned. Sitterud scheduled the next follow-up meeting for April 28 at 6 p.m. in the Emery County Courthouse.

Treat the multiple triggers behind inflammation for lasting relief from sensitivity flare-ups.
Itching, burning, stinging and redness are the obvious signs of sensitive skin. The triggers behind these sensations are less clear: genetics, hormones, stress, chemical assaults, foods and even aggressive skin treatments can intensify skin's highly reactive state. The common thread behind irritation, flushing and stinging is inflammation. When paired with the loss of skin's protective barrier, skin health is compromised and becomes highly reactive.

Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
Great for days you don't want to wear makeup. Evens out skin tone for slight discoloration. I wish it was a little thinner but overall great product.
Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
I have lived by this product for YEARS. I don't wear makeup, so this product is perfect - especially in the cold winter months when my skin is desperate for moisture. It initially goes on thick, but a little goes a long way. It settles like a regular moisturizer, blending into your skin and lasting all day as a dewey barrier that eliminates all redness and keeps your skin hydrated. It never settles into my fine lines and I even use a little just for my dark circles when I'm camping. Everything else I've tried ends up cakey or like a foundation. I don't know what I'd do without this product!
Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
I have severe acne after using this.. Is there any way to return it?
Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
This product makes my dry, sensitive skin feel hydrated and refreshed. It blurs all of my imperfections and redness so it is less noticeable, but doesn't look caked on like regular foundation.
Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
I received this product as a gift but I'm not sure its right for my darker skin tone?!? When applying it, it's lighter than my skin but seems to settle! I can't find anything else in the range for other skin tones - is this product for all skin tones? Can't find any info relating to this anywhere?
Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
I have been using his product for almost 5 years. At 30, my dermatologist used it to calm redness after my peel, and now at 35 it keeps my aging skin healthy and even. I use it daily - I like that it covers like a foundation, but settles like a regular moisturizer while locking in moisture all day (which is helpful here especially in the winter). Anything else I have tried has failed miserably compared to this product, either settling into my fine lines or simply not making any difference. I cannot live without this stuff.
Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
I like dermalogica products & was recommended to try this for my sensitive skin. However it made my skin red & felt like it was tingling & burning & I can't use it.
It's reassuring that other people say the same as my dermatologist didn't believe it.
I hope dermalogica do something about it, as there shouldn't be so many problems with a product designed to calm sensitive skin.
Please help dermalogica.
Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
Love using this foundation it gives me great coverage.. Very light and great to use in warm weather.
Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
For 5 years I used Dermalogica ultrasensitive faceblock spf 25. This was my absolute favourite beauty product of all time. It was lightweight, a great shade and perfect for evening out skin tone.
I was shocked when this product was taken off the market given it's fantastic reviews.
I tried Dermalogica's replacement and was massively disappointed. It has a greasy finish and leaves a pinkish tone.
All I can hope is that Dermalogica brings back everyone's old favourite!
Comments about ultra sensitive tint spf30:
After sampling this product, I had to switch to using this full time. I have very red tones in my skin and this product does a great job balancing my skin tone out. Coverage is excellent, long lasting, and keeps my skin hydrated throughout the day. Love the texture, thickness, and scent. This product does no wrong!!

Q:Years ago I purchased your product which was the ultra sensitive faceblock spf25. I just loved the tone and the coverage this product gave. Do you still make it and if not what is comparable to this. Thank you!

Q:How dark is the tint in the ultra sensitive tint spf 30? Is it ok for acne prone skin?
7 answers
A:This is a light tint and has just enough color to even skin tone. I am very fair and I find it gives me a natural glow without looking like I have on "make-up" the way foundation might look. I am not sure if it is okay for acne prone skin. I have dry skin. However, it is not greasy or heavy so it might be worth a try.
A:It is very very dark. This product is a failure. It causes also acne
