Rarely will a coach consider a loss a victory, but for Harrisburg High School girls' soccer coach Rick Daugherty, a 3-0 loss to Marion Wednesday was a big confidence booster for his ballclub.
"Marion, you could say, is the team in the area." Daugherty said. "They've shut out some very good programs in Missouri like Cape Vincent, Notre Dame and beat Sikeston. They got a goal 20:00 into the game, but for 50 of the 80 minutes, we played right there with them."
Daugherty added that Harrisburg had their own opportunities, albeit just a few, but that from a respect standpoint, they did get that from Marion.
"We have their respect, I know that much. Everyone played well, we just didn't get any to go in the net. We hung around with a very good team for as young as we are."
Marion had 14 shots in the first half but didn't cash in until the 23rd minute when Emily Dickman scored an unassisted goal.
Rose Crabtree put in a shot with an assist from Dickman seven minutes later and Dickman booted in another goal late in the first half to increase the lead to 3-0 at the break.
Seven different players had shots on goal in the second half —cluding three by McKayla McGee and not including Alia Abu-Douleh, who had four shots in the first half — but none went in for the Lady Wildcats after the break.
Jordan Stewart and Taylor McDaniel each had a shot on goal for the Bulldogs.
Harrisburg will travel to Cape Central, Missouri on Thursday.

Mev Puleo Scholarship Program Accepting Applications
The Department of Theological Studies will once again sponsor its two-month social justice and liberation theology immersion experience in Nicaragua this coming summer.
The Mev Puleo Scholarship Program in Latin American Theology, Politics and Culture is an intensive immersion experience in Nicaragua with a strong theological focus and an emphasis on social justice and cross-cultural exchange for six to eight undergraduate theology majors or minors. While applicants need to be at least a theology minor, many students are willing to make the commitment (it is only two classes beyond the College of Arts and Sciences theology requirement) in order to take advantage of this unique opportunity.
The first two weeks of the program include an intensive Spanish-language classroom course designed to prepare students for their homestays in Ciudad Sandino outside of Managua. Apart from master's-level theology courses (taught in Spanish), students will be placed in service-learning sites and travel to various locales throughout Nicaragua.
Refer to the scholarship website for application information.

Go west, young man, go west! …Unless you're into being successful
posted at 2:41 pm on May 3, 2012 by Erika Johnsen
I seem to recall, not too long ago, California Governor Jerry Brown saying that his state's policies were about "California leading the country," which, in turn, could serve as a model for "America potentially leading the world." Yet again, Gov. Brown has provided an all-too-apt example of how these United States could indeed lead the world: by doing the precise opposite of whatever it is California is doing.
It's a darn good thing California has all of those beautiful vistas and fantastic recreation to recommend itself, 'cause it doesn't seem to have much else going for it. In an annual survey, business executives have ranked California as the absolute worst state in the country for doing business for the eighth year in a row:
The survey considered responses from 650 business leaders, who graded states on factors such as taxes, regulations, living environment and more. …
California narrowly edged out New York in what the survey called "the ninth circle of business hell," sharing the bottom five spots with Illinois, Massachusetts and Michigan. …
Its 10.9% unemployment rate is only lower than Nevada's and Rhode Island's. A third of U.S. welfare recipients live in California, the report noted. High state taxes and bundles of red tape make operating a business in the state unaffordable to many companies, critics say.
Last year, 254 California companies moved some or all of their work and jobs elsewhere — 26% more than 2010. Most chief executives in Silicon Valley said they won't expand in the state, according to the survey.
Once the Golden State of opportunity, businesses and residents have more recently been fleeing California's legislation-happy climes in droves. More than 1.5 million jumped ship between 2001 and 2009, instead moving to more business-friendly locales like the survey's number-one state, Texas (where unemployment currently sits below the national average — don't mess).
Try as they might, what with their well-touted forays into subsidized green energy, spectacular feats of nanny-statism and the like, California remains an example of the havoc that ideological mismanagement and over-regulation can wreak on a regional economy. While their heavily left-leaning policies might be able to eke out an existence while dragging down the rest of the nation, their habits aren't sustainable in the long term, and they've got the debt and deficit woes to prove it.
This is exactly why federalism is so brilliant — and why we should cut down on the federal bureaucracy and make better use of it.

Bertuzzi: the coach made me do it
March 28 2008 03:15PM
I know this isn't about the Oil, but it has relevance for all NHL players.
Todd Bertuzzi is trying to implicate his former coach Marc Crawford in the brutal sucker punch that ended Steve Moore's hockey career. According to this article from Global National, Bertuzzi's alleging that Crawford instructed Canucks players to dish out some payback on Moore for knocking out Markus Naslund.
From the article:
"'It's unreasonable understanding of any contract, even for a professional hockey player to say that it binds you to go out and intentionally injure someone,' he said. 'Hockey has a lot of opportunity inside and outside the boundaries of the game to do something that exposes someone to a risk of injury. I don't think it's unreasonable that direction given by Crawford meant to engage Moore in a fight. It's a stretch to say that Crawford's directions meant to intentionally injure Moore.'"
I think Bertuzzi's a bit out to lunch if he's trying to implicate Crawford. Maybe he should admit that what he did was one of the douchey-est moves in hockey, and leave Crawford out of it. Unless Crawford actually told his players to "end Moore's career," I think it's a bit of a stretch to blame him.
March 28 2008, 03:36PM
I just watched the video again and it left me with the same sick feeling in my stomach as when I first saw it. At no time during the video did I see Crawford come out on the ice, take Bertuzzi's fist and drive it into Moore's head. Stop shifting blame. It was YOU, Bertuzzi, that hit Moore. It was YOU that ended his career and it's YOU that has to live with it.
I dont know about that. I think that Moore getting injured has something to do with a bit of bad luck. The play was nasty, and clearly dirty but I have seen worse that haven't resulted in the injury like Moore received and the guy got booted from the game at worst.
This lawsuit needs to be settled and the game needs to move on

Very pretty color
"I love the bronze metallic color of these boots that make them an unusual item. They are not too bright or odd-looking. I am normally a size 6 and order a 6 1/2 in boots for extra comfort but these run long and I ordered a 5 1/2 which fit perfectly. The front of the boot is very pointy, so if you don't like that look (true look of a western boot), you're not going to enjoy these. They're super cute with the right outfit. Wish the heel was a bit taller but this is ok for a real western feel. Lots of looks and compliments."

gorgeous color, great fit!
"These were back up boots for my daughter in case other pair didn't fit, but they were too nice to return, so kept them for me! The color is a beautiful bronze, but subtle, and will match anything as it's more golden than copper color. I tried many other boots and western ones are all so narrow and long in general. These were wide enough for comfy toe-wiggle, and love the low heel for walking. I got them a half size smaller than my normal size of shoes. I was told by western boot stores that they should run big enough for your heel to slide up n down a bit, as for riding, you need that when the ankle bends. But I just want these cuz they're sooo cute! They are well made with soft padded lining throughout and more comfy than some very pricey ones I've tried. They're a little big on me, but I need the extra toe room so it's fine. The detailed stitching is a classic look and the color seems a rare find. Buy these, you won't regret it!"

After the American Revolution began, the first unofficial national flag—known as the Continental Colours (or, incorrectly, as the Grand Union Flag or the Cambridge Flag)—was hoisted at Prospect Hill in Charlestown (now in Somerville, Mass.) on Jan. 1, 1776; it was raised, it appears, at the behest of Gen. George Washington, whose headquarters were nearby. The flag had 13 horizontal stripes (probably of red and white or of red, white, and blue) and, in the canton, the first version of the British Union Flag (Union Jack). It was used at forts and on naval vessels. Another popular early flag, that of the Sons of Liberty, had the 13 stripes only. The various 18th-century "Don't Tread on Me" flags had only local significance, but in the 20th century such designs were popularized by political protesters.
The first official national flag, formally approved by the Continental Congress on June 14, 1777, was the Stars and Stripes. The blue canton was to contain 13 stars, but the layout of the stars was left undefined, and several patterns are known. The designer of the flag, Congressman Francis Hopkinson, may have had a ring of stars in mind to symbolize (in the words of the flag law) "a new constellation." Today that pattern is popularly known as the "Betsy Ross flag," although the claims of her descendants that she made the first Stars and Stripes and that she used the ring pattern are unsubstantiated. Rows of stars (4-5-4 or 3-2-3-2-3) were common, but other variations also existed. The new Stars and Stripes formed part of the military colours carried on Sept. 11, 1777, at the Battle of the Brandywine, perhaps its first such use.
The Stars and Stripes changed on May 1, 1795, when two more stars and two more stripes were added to reflect the admission to the union of Vermont (1791) and Kentucky (1792). (One such flag was the 1,260-square-foot [117-square-metre] "Star-Spangled Banner," made by Mary Pickersgill, that Francis Scott Key saw at Fort McHenry in September 1814, inspiring his patriotic poem.) In 1818, after five more states had been admitted, Congress enacted legislation pertaining to a new flag, requiring that henceforth the number of stripes should remain 13, the number of stars should always match the number of states, and any new star should be added on the July 4 following a state's admission. This has been the system ever since. In all, from 1777 to 1960 (after the admission of Hawaii in 1959) there were 27 versions of the flag—25 involving changes in the stars only. An executive order of Oct. 29, 1912, standardized the proportions and relative sizes of the elements of the flag; in 1934 the exact shades of colour were standardized.
There is no official assignment of meaning or symbolism to the colours of the flag. However, Charles Thomson, secretary of the Continental Congress, in describing the proposed Great Seal, suggested the following symbolism: "White signifies purity and innocence, Red, hardiness & valour, and Blue…signifies vigilence, perseverence [sic] & justice." As with many other national flags, the Stars and Stripes has long been a focus of patriotic sentiment. Millions of children have traditionally recited the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag at the start of each school day, and the lyrics of the national anthem are also concerned with the flag. Some veterans' groups have pressured legislators to adopt laws or a constitutional amendment prohibiting flag desecration, but such legislation has been opposed on the grounds that it would infringe on the constitutionally guaranteed freedom of expression.
During the American Civil War, the Confederate States of America began to use its first flag, the Stars and Bars, on March 5, 1861. Soon after, the first Confederate Battle Flag was also flown. The design of the Stars and Bars varied over the following two years. On May 1, 1863, the Confederacy adopted its first official national flag, often called the Stainless Banner. A modification of that design was adopted on March 4, 1865, about a month before the end of the war. In the latter part of the 20th century, many groups in the South challenged the practice of flying the Confederate Battle Flag on public buildings, including some state capitols. Proponents of the tradition argued that the flag recalled Southern heritage and wartime sacrifice, whereas opponents saw it as a symbol of racism and slavery, inappropriate for official display.

That is why the Whiteman hasn't built any lasting settlement in the region. HEADLINE: Recent study confirms: coffee can keep you awake
Photograph by Ira Block, National Geographic
Published October 31, 2013
One thousand years ago, on a floodplain of the Mississippi River near modern-day St. Louis, the massive Native American city known today as Cahokia sprang suddenly into existence. Three hundred years later it was virtually deserted.
The reasons for Cahokia's quick emergence and precipitous decline have been among the greatest mysteries in American prehistory, but new research suggests a possible cause of the city's demise: a catastrophic flood.
A team led by Samuel E. Munoz, a doctoral student at the University of Wisconsin, Madison and National Geographic Young Explorer Grantee, reported at the 2013 conference of the Geological Society of America that their study of sediment cores from a lake adjacent to the site of Cahokia reveals calamitous flooding of the area around 1200 C.E., just as the city was reaching its apex of population and power.
While analyzing cores from Horseshoe Lake, an oxbow lake that separated from the Mississippi River some 1,700 years ago, Munoz's team discovered a layer of silty clay 19 centimeters (7.5 inches) thick deposited by a massive ancient flood.
It's unlikely that the ancient floodwaters were high enough to inundate the ten-story mound at Cahokia's center, a structure now called Monk's Mound. (See "Cahokia: America's Forgotten City.") But a flood of such magnitude would have devastated croplands and residential areas, and may have made it impossible for a population numbering as many as 15,000 to continue inhabiting the area.
Whether the flood caused Cahokia's decline and abandonment or simply contributed to it remains a subject for future research. But this much is clear: Within 150 years of the flood, what had been the largest prehistoric settlement north of Mexico became a ghost town, a vacant landscape of earthen mounds that would confound European settlers.
Though the flood is a new wrinkle in Cahokia's story, other data from the team's research supports previous archaeological conclusions about the history of Cahokia and the Mississippian culture of which it was a part.
Core Clues
Analysis of pollen deposits in the sediment cores from Horseshoe Lake shows an intensification of farming, accompanied by rapid deforestation, starting around 450 C.E., with corn cultivation peaking between 900 and 1200 C.E. Then the cores reveal the flood event, followed by a decline in corn cultivation. By 1350 C.E., the pollen record shows, agriculture there had essentially ceased.
(Related: "Drought Led to Collapse of Civilizations, Study Says.")
Munoz, a geographer who specializes in the study of pollen records, noticed that very little pollen research had been done in the American Southeast, where the Mississippian culture flourished. "And we didn't really have any studies outside big archaeological sites," he said. So when he saw Horseshoe Lake right next to Cahokia, he thought it was worth a shot.
"These floodplain lakes have been ignored for a long time as sources of these kinds of records, and they can be really valuable," said Munoz, whose research was supported by a grant from the National Geographic Society.
But he had no idea they might find such a big piece of the puzzle. "When we realized we were looking at a flood, and that it fell right at this key time in Cahokia's history, it was very exciting."
There were mound builders in Ohio too. Were they related?
I wonder if geologic evidence suggests a possible earthquake in the area as a cause of the flood (altering the coarse of the river) or was it a meteorological event?
As opposed to places of worship could mound building actually have been for a functional purpose? Could they have built as something as simple as somewhere for the local inhabitants to wait out floods. Has anyone ever determined what percentage of mounds lie in flood plains.
Mound building served a dual purpose of religious significance as well as a display of status. Important religious buildings were set upon mounds to place them closer to the Sun (the object of worship) as well as to show that the inhabitants were "above" the common rabble. We know, or suspect this, due to the goods found in the archaeological record on and around these mounds.
That is not to say that ALL mounds were for these purposes, but the preponderance of the evidence in the archaeological record suggests just that.
Hi Craig Hill,
Thanks for answering my question.
Having visited Cahokia and most of the largest Native American sites in the Southwest, Cahokia is every bit as spectacular. Though not made of stone as Chaco or Mesa Verde, it's size is what makes it a wonderful place to visit, but not on a hot, humid day. Great place to take your time and walk around, if only it didn't have major street right through the middle of it.
@John Farrelly : I always thought of Stonehenge as being out in the middle of a great big empty so think of my surprise when I found it right at the intersection of 2 major regional highways. Nineteenth century engineers rarely gave a hoot about ruins of any sort. I have seen the highway department tear down an Hopewell mound because some objected to kids "Parking" behind it.
Every time I read an article these days, the comments section is filled with a bunch of weirdos who have nothing better to do with themselves but beat us all over the head with their angry, annoying and otherwise trivial opinions that 99% of the time have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the article I was reading. Take all your negativity and stick it between B.C., C.E and oh yeah A.D. I think that covers all bases.
Had the pleasure of walking the entire complex, on a blistering day in humidity approaching that of an ocean of air. And it was worth every step. It took hours. As i walked it, it was clearly all visible. I imagined the tens of thousands who lived and visited there during great gatherings of trade, from 100s and even 1,000 miles away. Highly recommended if you share my historical-anthropological passion.
A very interesting article but could someone please explain to me what the abbreviation C.E. stands for.
@alan holmes Common Era. It replaces the childish voodoo fiction of Anno Domini. It reflects the fact the world accepts the Roman calendar as a common reference point, hence it's the common era of dating. The old designations didn't bring everyone in on the common dating period because it refers to the approximate and inaccurate birthdate of a specific religion's ghost.. CE does the trick.
btw BCE, Before the Common Era, has likewise replaced BC, Before Christ, for the same reason.
WOW ... could you possibly be more offensive ... especially in reply to such a benign question?
@craig hill @alan holmes : Yeah man the ghost thing was uncalled for. Just not polite dude.
@Stannous Flouride @Gene Tylr Can you honestly say you didn't intend to be offensive?
@Gene Tylr- Could you possibly be more oversensitive?
@craig hill @alan holmes If CE still starts 2,000 years ago than it's still referencing the birth of Jesus of Nazareth,
The lack of historic and archaeological appreciation here is staggering. As well as the lack of understanding how studies like this are funded...
I hope a lot of time and $$ wasn't wasted on this. It is well known that that plain is subject to devastating flooding. That is why the Whiteman hasn't built any lasting settlement in the region. HEADLINE: Recent study confirms: coffee can keep you awake.
@William Iseminger @m marion : I had figured it was a fever brought by Desoto and his lot. That the river would get this high is surprising to me. Oh well. Most of the mounds and associated communities in this area (central Kentucky) are up on the bluffs with the fields in the bottoms. Must have been one bugger of a flood.
@m marion --even though there has been flooding in the past, levees have thus far controlled most of that problem in this immediate area, so the cities of Alton, Granite City, East St. Louis, Cahokia, Dupo -- to name a few -- would certainly refute your claim there aren't any lasting settlements in the region. The village of Cahokia, about 12 miles south of Cahokia Mounds, was the first in the area, settled by the French in 1699, and it still exists. Also, this study was not to prove there were floods but to examine changes in vegetation over the centuries as reflected in the pollen grains in the sediments of the lake. Additional information was fortuitous, such as the sediment layer showing evidence of a great flood. Interestingly, at the Cahokia site itself there is not much evidence of flood deposits in house basins or pits, suggesting it was just high enough by a foot or two to miss most flooding.
Amazing the lack of history you show there, Timothy. Some of the first modern scientists were Christians who believed in a literal 7 day creation of the universe, etc. Nothing wrong with belief (since belief ifluences everything we all do, including evolutionists and such).
@Charles Hart V - There's a BIG difference between "believing" in science and religious-based beliefs. And there *is* something 'wrong' with "belief", especially in contrast to truth and reality, or as much as one can muster of those based on actual facts, evidence, and proof. This is often also compounded in the negative when people use words like "know" when what they really mean is "believe" (or, "know in my heart", etc.). Just think what some of those "modern scientists" (and too many today) could have accomplished if they hadn't been blindered, constricted, and "self"-obstructed by their religious beliefs.
good point lol
wowwy wow with science now a days we can do and predict anything imagine how we will be in just a decade from now im in awe speechless
@Dave Craine No you don't. You're a collective drain on the Treasury despite your taxed contributions to Nat Geo's sources. You're the single biggest parasites (assuming you count big businessmen sucking on massive titanic subsidies that are NEVER paid back) afflicitng this country.
LOL It's us Creationist Tea Bag Tards who work to fund you're Lib (Oh my God, my brains fell out) Tard research!!!
FYI ... I really liked your first post and had a great deal of empathy for you as I have also toured the site. Now I wish I had never heard of you.
You share neither my religion nor my general political beliefs ... which is fine.
This is National Geographic. Not a political site. The world is not that small and now I have an opinion of you that I frankly quite unfavorable. Your mean spirited comments diminished my enjoyment of the article and has gained you nothing of which I am aware. Good job.
@sarah Bernheim we'll probably still be fighting against creationist teabagtards 10 years from now.
@Dave Craine I hate to confuse you with facts but it is a FACT that the states that suck the teat of Washington the largest are the ones that elect the most Tea Party candidates.
These states take FAR MORE out of the budget than they pay in.
@Craig Hill Time to get your head out of the sand... Obamacare is now the single biggest subsidy in the US...
@Timothy Steele @sarah Bernheim Does every comment section on the internet have to be filled with this crap?
If you have nothing of value to add, don't comment.

Mark Twain's often-quoted "Truth is stranger than fiction" sums up a plot that could be hard to believe if we didn't know it was true.
Argo tells a well-crafted story from a gripping moment in history.
Ben Affleck stars and directs the film that already has Oscar pundits talking.
Argo is the story of a daring mission to rescue six Americans from revolutionary Iran.
The time is 1979 and the Shah of Iran has just been deposed by the Ayatollah Khomeini.
The people are angry at the United States for propping up the Shah for so long and storm the US Embassy in Tehran.
With their future looking exceedingly perilous, six of the staff sneak out a side entrance of the embassy and manage to obtain sanctuary at the residence of the Canadian ambassador.
The one factor in their favour is that the Iranians don't know they have escaped, and while that continues they are safe.
Back in the States, the plight of the six escapers is foremost with the CIA and the White House.
And taking a personal interest is Tony Mendez (Affleck), a specialist in extracting hostages from hostile environments.
He concocts a daring plan that involves creating a fake film being shot in Iran.
It is just crazy enough to work but he must get everything in exactly the right place if he is to pull it off.
Argo has a gritty reality about it.
The style of shooting is extremely raw, which helps enhance the tension and drama of the life-and-death mission to escape Iran.

Posted on 09/23/2013 6:22:37 PM PDT by Jim Robinson
WASHINGTON Federal officials often say that health insurance will cost consumers less than expected under President Obamas health care law. But they rarely mention one big reason: many insurers are significantly limiting the choices of doctors and hospitals available to consumers.
From California to Illinois to New Hampshire, and in many states in between, insurers are driving down premiums by restricting the number of providers who will treat patients in their new health plans.
When insurance marketplaces open on Oct. 1, most of those shopping for coverage will be low- and moderate-income people for whom price is paramount. To hold down costs, insurers say, they have created smaller networks of doctors and hospitals than are typically found in commercial insurance. And those health care providers will, in many cases, be paid less than what they have been receiving from commercial insurers.
Some consumer advocates and health care providers are increasingly concerned. Decades of experience with Medicaid, the program for low-income people, show that having an insurance card does not guarantee access to specialists or other providers.
Consumers should be prepared for much tighter, narrower networks of doctors and hospitals, said Adam M. Linker, a health policy analyst at the North Carolina Justice Center, a statewide advocacy group.
(Excerpt) Read more at nytimes.com ...
Of course.
It is intended to destroy one of the best healthcare systems in the world.
How is it that the cost of Insurance In California is said to be set to increase by 70 percent...while these people go on about new New NEW Lower Cost Unsurance?
We will see higher premiums and fewer choices.
SAVE America, SAVE the little guy, Defund, Destroy, Delete Obamacare...now....Today!!! (WWW.DONTFUNDOBAMACARE.COM) Sign up!!!
Wonder how people will like the $10,000 deductible they will have with that cheap mandatory health insurance?
According to the Georgia Insurance Commissioner, a single guy in his 30s currently pays around $43 a month. Next year, that's 3 months from now, it will go up to $108 a month. I don't see how someone working at McDonald's can afford that.
Obama will blame it on the pubbies somehow.
Correctamundo! Fewer choices, fewer doctors, less care, death panels, rationing, the IRS looking up you ass, er, name and address rather than your doctor AND higher, MUCH higher costs!! And less freedom everywhere. Fewer jobs, fewer hours, less productivity, less work, less pay and with the now unlimited government snooping and controlling every little aspect of our lives.
Nooo shit.....
What insurance premiums are they looking at?
Scarcity is the regular status of this world. Shortages are government created. Obamacare is creating a shortage.
It won't be cheaper. It won't be better.
And all you have to do to get an exemption is to convert to Islam.
Spent time today with my doc talking about this.
He said it's already horrible, he has no idea what will happen. He's already gotten visits from the Obama Nazis, who were armed with orders signed by Obama. He said they basically spent the day giving him and his office a proctology exam. He said there are over 100K new insurance codes. He is NOT happy.
As for us, we have been notified that our cancellation letter is coming. They are pushing people off the premium PPO's onto standard , or HMO's, and it will cost the same PLUS an extra 2% "ACA fee".
I mean, there is an extra ACA fee attached to all the premiums. Never heard about that from Obama!
There is no healthcare coverage.
That isn't true.
If anyone wants to see some estimated premiums in the California Exchange, you can fill in income and family details here:
It give you the estimated monthly silver plan premium.
I don't line in CA but it turned out this calculator gave some pretty good estimates for my own state, whose calculator came out a bit later.
"Next year, thats 3 months from now, it will go up to $108 a month. I dont see how someone working at McDonalds can afford that."
They can't. The deal is people making lower wages like the gift they get from the fed as a "tax return". They will no longer get the gift from Uncle Sam they have given with no interest.
May make peopl wise up and claim 10 dependants so the gov takes out less money each week.
There is no enforcement in obamacare right now. Later there will be.
Federal officials? Okay....(rolling eyes)
Oh the MSM are out there already cherry picking examples of how much people will save. They are making no effort to address the under 50 crowd that is healthy and won't buy the insurance. The other thing they are not addressing is the cost and subsequent rises in rates that will take place as soon as the insurance companies get into it for a year or so. And finally, doctors will simply not accept the reimbursement rates and refuse to take many people.
Looks like my premium will quadruple.
I'd like to see some substantiation on that.
Can you provide the subsection of the law that references this?
The only religious exemption I can find is for groups that are currently outside the Soc Sec system, which includes Amish and Mennonites.
Platinum: No deductible
Gold: No deductible
Silver: $2,000 Medical Deductible
Bronze: $5,000 for Medical and Drugs
Mine is going up around $90 but, then, I'm in a new age category also.
Not for family vato. Add it up.
Hey! I read it on the internets!
Well they must mean it will be lower for the people who will get if for free like the people who get the obamaphones, They will see lower or no premiums while you and I will be paying for it and in my case I will get to pay a penalty but will have no insurance because I wont be able to afford the premiums. FBO
Yes, I think that is individual. Max out of pocket for family I just posted.
No offense but I'm not buying it until I see some links.
Muslims aren't exempt. He was joking or just spouting off. It has been claimed many times on FR but isn't true.
Maximum out-of-pocket for one:
Platinum: $4,000
Gold: $6,350
Silver: $6,350
Bronze: $6,350
Platinum: $8,000
Gold: $12,700
Silver: $12,700
Bronze: $12,700
They did a news article on a DFW local station tonight. Two health navigators were walking the street and went up and knocked on an apartment door in shady neighborhood. Fat Mexican holding a light skinned kid came to the door. The two insurance whores started telling him how he and his family was eligible for insurance. No way in hell is that guy going to pay $2 dollars fo insurance for himself and his half dozen kids and esposa.
They will just keep showing up at the emergency room and expecting free healthcare.
Very possible.
Govt involvement will lower premiums... sure it will.
Ultimately, fewer choices will translate into more sick people, followed in short order with more dead people — many of whom were perfectly content with their coverage and their plan before ReBamaLosi "reformed" healthcare.
"Federal officials often say that health insurance will cost consumers less than expected..."
Guess they "expected" much higher rates. Still BS but it sounds better.
The hospitals do get federal funds to try and offset those unpaid ER visits — that's one thing they're trying to reduce but probably won't work.
Invest in rope. I predict a lot of it is going to be needed in D.C.
One of the things that is happening to my doctor clients: Networks are combining behind the scenes and docs are ending up in networks they know nothing about, did not agree to join and would never join because of the incredibly low reimbursement rate.
If this happens with enough doctors, managed plans will find themselves with no doctors for patients to see.
"Dr. Barbara L. McAneny, a cancer specialist in Albuquerque, said that insurers in the New Mexico exchange were generally paying doctors at Medicare levels, which she said were often below our cost of doing business, and definitely below commercial rates.
What's the point of participating for providers if the reimbursement is below cost? This will be insurance in name only, access will be terrible, and the best solution will be the penalty for most middle and lower income folks.
Also, they've been telling us everyone can be insured now. In typical liberal fashion, they leave out that while you may have "insurance" per se, you may not be able to pay the copays or deductibles required to actually use it. But that doesn't matter. It's not about health. It's about the jackboot on your neck.
Communism never works.
The myth of lower premiums won't survive the first year of Obamacare, nor will the economy.
the regime...never expected this bill to be used.
its was deisgned to further DIVIDE people
when word gets to the "underclass" that they are getting this BIG Freebie....because of middle class WORKING people...it wont be pretty and Obama doesnt want it to be.
the >"right" people< have gotten their chance at making it work this time ...and its already fallen flat on its behind. amazing that
He is evil I am afraid of him. Honestly it seems to me since he was elected in 2008 there has been constant turmoil and lots of big and bad things happening and I do not find them a coincidence.
Went to doctor today and was asked to sign off on new HIPA forms release. Asked doctor what the hell was this for? New government requirements for electronic forms and releasing of information if requested. WTF!!!!
Did not sign and told him would not sign. Told him to get on with his work and government can stay the hell out of my medical records. He proceeded without signature.
Anybody else run across this male bovine scat??
Oh, the irony of that website you linked. It says, on the side, that if a family of 3 has an income of $26,000 or less per year, they are eligible to sign up for Medi-Cal. Medi-Cal is the same program I grew up with—which has covered the poor in CA for as long as I can remember.
This idea that we needed some sort of massive federal government program to make sure everyone gets coverage has always been a lie. There have been programs to cover the most poor all along.
I buy insurance for my son. It started out at $160/mo (kind of expensive). Thanks to Obamacare, it has gone up to $233/mo (even more expensive). All I want is a policy that will cover emergencies... policies that cover everything just increase the cost of medical care.

Sam RaimiFilmmaker
Born: 23 October 1959
Birthplace: Royal Oak, Michigan
Best known as: Director of The Evil Dead and Spider-Man
Filmmaker Sam Raimi is most famous for his early movies in The Evil Dead series and for the blockbuster Spider-Man movies. Raimi is known as a movie enthusiast who began making his own movies before he was a teenager. In 1978 he and some friends, including actor Bruce Campbell, made Within the Woods, a short horror film they used to raise money to make a feature. For a few hundred thousand dollars, they made The Evil Dead, an over-the-top horror movie that got raves at the 1983 Cannes Film Festival and has since become a cult favorite. Raimi's distinctive visual style and the success of The Evil Dead 2 (1987) led to his first big studio movie, the 1990 thriller Darkman (1990, starring Liam Neeson). Since then he has become one of Hollywood's most successful directors, thanks to the box office success of Spider-Man (2002) and Spider-Man 2 (2004, both with Tobey Maguire). He has also directed Army of Darkness (1993) and The Quick and the Dead (1995, starring Sharon Stone), as well as more "serious" films, including A Simple Plan (1998, starring Billy Bob Thornton), The Gift (2000, starring Cate Blanchett) and Drag Me to Hell (2010) As a producer, Raimi had big hits on television with Hercules: The Legendary Journeys (1995-99, with Kevin Sorbo) and Xena: The Warrior Princess (1995-2001, starring Lucy Lawless).
Extra credit:
Raimi has made many appearances on screen over the years, including Miller's Crossing (1990) and The Flintstones (1994)… He frequently casts his brother, Ted Raimi, and his childhood friend, Bruce Campbell in his movies… Raimi's 1973 Oldsmobile Delta Royale makes an appearance in almost all of his movies.

Note: No M.I.S. OR Nelson Ledges on the calender. With I.R.P. long gone, the number of tracks is decreasing. The number of "regionals" is down as well. It used to be there was a race almost every weekend , now there are five or six. Trend ?
M.I.S. needs more time to implement requested changes.
While i understand the lure of the facility , once one drives it the lure is gone. ( IMHO).
Poor Nelsons, a track with soul, hope they can find the funds to repave as needed. ( same boat we are in, soon. )
Grattan is a track all should try, after Gingerman. Do Gingerman first, trust me.

Classy and Sassy
"Bought the black wedges and wish I had the red ones too. I was afraid that they might be clunky or that the rope trim on the heel would look cheap. But as they say, "No worries." They look great.They came packaged with little foam cushions in the loops of the bows just like my coach purses do. Took them out of the box and found no smushed bows. Perfect.The front strap is a little wide but my foot tends toward a bit narrow anyway. I receive compliments with each wearing and that speaks volumes considering I wear a 9 1/2. Very comfortable considering the heel height."

Not exactly what I wanted, but good enough
"I was in need of a brown sandal with gold accents, and although this shoes wasn't exactly what I really wanted, the price fit. The shoe itself is cute, but isn't the most comfortable shoe. I'm not sure if I just need to break it in a bit more or not, but shall see.As far as DV by Dolce Vita shoes are concerned, I have a pair of white sandals with gold accents I always get complemented on. They were initially uncomfortable, but are awesome to spend long periods of time in."

Comfy once broken in
"I was sold on the looks of these boots alone.When I first got these, they fit pretty narrow, specifically at the base of the toes. (I do, however, have wider feet.) For the first week, I suffered the blisters and eventually switched over to wearing my wool socks to stretch them out.Once these have broken in, they are pretty comfortable and look great! Be sure to use some waterproofing spray or other leather protectant if you get these. The leather seems to absorb water pretty quickly."

Classy Boot
"This boot is amazing. The aroma of luxurious leather hits your senses before you even take the boots out of the box. The boot does run a little narrow so they may need breaking in.

"I had been patiently looking for nearly six mths for the right boot to catch my attention & these did it! They look great, the leather is so soft & comfy! I normally wear a 6 1/2, but I have to admit these feel a tad long & definitely some wiggle room from my first experience of wearing them. Perhaps thicker socks will take care of the concern. I am thinking of adding an insole as well, although they are comfy...they don't provide the best support. Overall though I am very pleased."

Alert your buyer that you will be asking prior to your project completion for referrals. 2. Identify your ideal referral. Feel free to provide names or say, "Your counterparts." 3. Pursue about two-thirds of the way through the project, when there are results and you are still on site. 4. Call, do not email referral recommendations. 5. Ideally, ask for personal introduction, even if by email or phone. 6. Thank your referral source and keep the source apprised of your progress. 7. Let people in your non-client life know of your interest in referrals: club members, friends, family, professional connections, trade associations, civic colleagues, etc. 8. It's not how many referrals you acquire, but how many you convert to clients. Use the correct metric. 9. Do not provide gifts for your sources (often unethical) but do provide a formal "thank you." 10. Reciprocate whenever you can, as often as you can. © Alan Weiss 2011.

The moaning and whining in some corners about big talk and no action from Edmonton Oilers GM Craig MacTavish was only hours old Thursday when MacT pulled off a STFU move by unloading captain Shawn Horcoff and his bloated contract to the Dallas Stars.
With the new buzz suddenly all about MacTavish being a man of action, the table is set for what fans anticipate will be a frenzied Friday, starting at 10 a.m., for MacTavish and the Oilers. My guess is that expectation will be met.
It had better be, because while some fans are celebrating MacTavish's ability to jettison Horcoff's contact, the bottom line is the Oilers have a gaping hole in the middle with No. 10 on his way to Big D and Eric Belanger being paid to pack his bags and get to stepping elsewhere.
Those moves leave Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Sam Gagner as the top two centres with the cupboard essentially bare when it comes to NHL experience behind them. Anton Lander will no doubt get a crack at pivot on the fourth line, but, at the very least, MacTavish needs a third-line centre.
That need, of course, is in addition to addressing the need for grit up front, a bonafide defenseman or two and help in goal. Here's what I think and here's what I know about some of the names rumored to be of interest to the Oilers.
The name I keep coming back to when I connect the dots as to who makes sense as a target for MacTavish is Zack Smith of the Ottawa Senators, who has been mentioned as a trade target, perhaps in a deal involving Ales Hemsky.
Smith, 25, is far from the biggest or flashiest name who might be available, but he's a player with 200 NHL games on his resume who could fit nicely in a third-line role with the Oilers.
While Smith produces very little in the way of points, he's a decent face-off man, going 51.8 per cent on the dot this season, has size at six-foot-two and 210 pounds and has some grit in his game.
New coach Dallas Eakins has the book on Smith as he was behind the bench with the Toronto Marlies when Smith was toiling with the Binghamton Senators. My best guess is Smith is at or near the top of MacTavish's list as a candidate for his third-line centre. Striking that deal is another matter.
Lots of buzz about UFA David Clarkson making a visit to Edmonton and there should be. With suitors lining up, an in-demand player like Clarkson doesn't have the luxury of taking the time to visit cities he has no interest in just for the sake of appearance. That he visited tells me something.
I've said it before and I'll say it again – I like Clarkson a lot. I think he brings the leadership and edge the Oilers sorely lack on this roster. He's tough to play against and, the way I see it, he's exactly what the Oilers need. Statistics don't tell the story with Clarkson. Given the make-up of this roster, he's a fit.
Price point is obviously a consideration and we're hearing is something at or north of $6 million a season for Clarkson. That's a big overpay, but if that's what the nutty NHL market will bear, that's the price. I don't like it, but if MacT is serious about bold moves, he'll have to break out a big stack, especially with the Toronto Maple Leafs making a big pitch.
Clarke MacArthur of the Maple Leafs has also been mentioned. I'm not overwhelmed by the native of Lloydminster, but he's a two-time 20-goal scorer with 403 NHL games on his resume and Edmonton associate coach Keith Acton knows him from his days in Hogtown.
On the face of it, I'd say there's a better chance MacArthur ends up here than Clarkson, but the wildcard is I'm told the Pittsburgh Penguins want him and that he could sign there as early as Friday.
I don't for a second think MacTavish's pursuit of Braydon Coburn of the Philadelphia Flyers is over and I expect he and Paul Holmgren will, or already have, re-visit this . . . I see Boyd Gordon, as Bob Stauffer of 630 CHED suggested, as an option for the 3C centre spot . . . difficult to ignore Ray Emery as a candidate to push Devan Dubnyk in goal, especially with word from TSN'S Darren Dreger the Oilers are in the hunt . . . Jason LaBarbera, as others have pointed out, seems a reasonable option if Emery says "no thanks."

C'mon Craig. This is the most leverage you'll ever have against a guy like Holmgren. Don't just knock on his door, kick that door off it's hinges. Allow yourself to do Homey this solid by ridding him of Meszaros (only 1 yr left), Coburn (3yrs) and Couturier. Give Paul, Petry and the first next summer if need be.
Most people here seem against signing Clarkson to a $5M per year deal. Now I realize that it's an overpay, but really how else are we gonig to get a top 6 legit power forward? If he's anything like Geurin I'd be willing to overpay for him. Someone like that could open up the ice for Hall, Ebs, etc. I think it'd be worth the money/term.
In this time and age....free agency means player changes (minor and major) and bloated contracts (some warranted others not)... Leading into this is that Clarkson likely was made a huge 4 to 5 yr offer last night by MacT. IMO, it is likely to be a type $22 (4 yrs) to $27.5 million dollar deal which then is about $5.5 mil per yr.
I can handle that with this guy although I would prefer him at about $4.5 to $4.75 mil maximum per yr. No matter (whining about salary or not)cause whther it is a big contract or not he is a helluva player to get first.
I would love to get both Boyd Gordon and Lapiere for centre duties as well...or even Zack Smith who is coming into his own at 25 yrs old (trade for him tho).
Then if either the Oilers get Emery or Khudobin too this is a big day for the Oilers with getting most to all these players I stated of..
No margin for error now at the centre position. There are a lot of teams looking for help up the middle. Looks like the plan at this point is to promote Lander and have Gagner as the #2 centre behind RNH - whenever he is healthy enough to play.
Seems a little strange that nothing has been announced for Gagner either. He is in a total position of strength now as the Oilers have basically jack at his position and he can sign a 1 yr deal and walk for nothing. Management kinda has their skirts hiked up over a barrel at this point - he may get traded yet.
Right now it looks like the Flyers are in need of some immediate help for cap reasons. The Canucks are not in real great shape either based on roster size and money available to sign players.
This is what 75% of the players did not understand during negotiations. The cap would decrease which actually makes the highest talent worth more to keep them. The guys making under $1 mill a year will stay about the same. The guys making $2 - $5 million (75% of the players) will be the ones taking a haircut. Last years $3.75 guy is this years $2.5 guy. They needed to cap the top salaries, raise the minimum salary and everyone would benefit, this way the high end skill just get paid more. Like society is going, the middle class get hurt the most until there is o longer middle class.
So you are saying that - at the rate we are headed - there will be no man-boys willing to PLAY HOCKEY for two-point-five-million-dollars per season?
This is ENTERTAINMENT, dude. Nobody pays a cent to go see the "middle-class" of hockey players. None. Zip. Nada. They are replaceable. Every single one. One player in, one player out. You're still buying a ticket.
How about this idea: Give the 2 or 3 players per team who deserve it - the stars who put asses in the seats - $20m per year. Give all the replaceables $1.5. Then perhaps I could afford to take my kids to see a game or two. Where do you think all this "middle-class" money comes from???
$2.5million to be a "middle-class" player playing a game??? And you think they should be paid more??? Incredible.
July 05 2013, 08:53AM
Should be busy right out of the gate (10 am mountain) with teams having 2 full days to get their ducks in a row.
Not sure how things are with Ryan miller but I heard he wants to move out west to be close to his wife/girlfriend just saying.
I think I would rather Schenn over Couturier and that provides the Flyers with more cap relief - maybe both Schenn brothers instead of Coburn.
Sounds like Emery is going to the Flyers too, so that's out for Edmonton.
St. Louis has excess goaltending - maybe the Oilers can swing a trade with them for one of their goalies and Chris Stewart. That would be a "bold" move.
Still think Boyd Gordon should be one of the main contacts as a UFA.
One hour and five minutes to officially begin!!!!! Exciting eh??? I got my munchies, my pot of coffee and a cold case of beer and then with what is likely to be some headaches about some deals I got my meds....
looking forward to today...lol
on the flip side, it's easier to sign a centre now the Horc is gone. Guys sometimes feel uneasy knowing that they are forcing out another guy.
Yep I heard philly is dealing closely with emery too and so it will be likely he signs back with Chi or Philly...but one never knows cause at this time...Money talks.
I like Khudobin more so than Emery myself but either will be fine if one comes to Edmonton.. To me tho Dubnyk still is #1 for one more season at least... IMO, because of the skaters getting high deals today...odds are very good that the back up will be a cheapy and probably someone like LaBarbera
Beer AND coffee?
I need to try that.
Lol...yep I need the coffee to stay awake and th beer to maybe drown some sorros too..lol.. I just covered all my bases...even the meds (Motrin - nothing serious by the way) for the headaches and the need to sleep thru any possible depression lol
As much as I like Clarkson and his game..........would he not wreak havoc with our artificial salary ceiling set with Hall, Eberle, soon to be RNH and Yaks?
addition by subtraction does not fill the holes in our line up, nor is it a bold move. i applaud mact for creating 5.5 million in cap space, however i'm not prepared to let him off the hook. we now need a third line centre to, what about depth at the centre positon. what happens when nuge, gags and lander get hurt? what about gritty 3 and 4th line players? what about a number 1 or 2 defence man? (don't tell me no one will part with one, gretzky got traded). what about size and grit in our top six? then there's goaltending, emery isn't coming, he wants more playing time i hear he's off to philly. no he's not off the hook there is still tones and tones of work to do.
Sounds like Sakic and Yzerman will remain the last of the super stars to go to retirement with the team that drafted them.
Alfredsson giving the Sens the Heisman and jettisoning to the Wings is the rumor. That is really surprising.
Definately shaping up to be one of the most frenetic UFA days in recent memory. Draft was a snooze-fest, this may make up for it.
Biggest fear is that the Oilers are left with the paper bag and its contents that gets lit on fire on your front step.
@Rama Lama
I agree that the salaries should be reasonable but if say Clarkson got a high 4 to 5yr deal max with no such \NTC or NMC then the deal can be digestible..
In fact, I hope there are no such NTC or NMC deals with the Oilers this yr cause that is the biggest worst handicap to making deals/trades in the future.. Salary alone...can be then easily traded off or bought out...
Robin, does it not concern you that he is a RW??
Does the Eric Cole debacle not ring a bell?
July 05 2013, 09:25AM
can't help but feel like free agency will be a bust, either because we land nobody, or because we massively overpay and end up with horcoff 2.0.
Also, Clarkson seriously wants 6mil+? He's approached 50 points once, and not been close the rest of his career. I dunno about that...
July 05 2013, 09:30AM
I am looking forward to the next 48 hours mostly so that all of the Chicken Little's around here can stop panicking about the falling sky. Worrying about holes in the lineup 1 hour before free agency begins is like worrying what presents are under the tree on Christmas morning. Plus, we got to open one early last night with MacT doing what he said he would do and sending Horcoff down the road.
Now, if we come away empty handed on some of the key guys then I will be the first to be Jackie Moon in Semi-Pro:
Everybody panic!
July 05 2013, 09:33AM
Suspect that the prospect of facing RNH or Gagner at centre for 35 to 40 min in a game is going to strike fear of physical pain (or losing a faceoff) in NO ONE. The oil NEED a physical, fierce 2nd line centre. Not a 3rd liner who will play less than 15 min/game.
You know guys "sometimes feel uneasy" how?
Never once in 25 years covering this game have I heard a player declare that he hesitated to go to a team where he'd get the contract or opportunity to win he wants because he might be forcing another guy out.
You're right about that. Few would pass on a great opportunity. But hockey is a small world, much like my field. We all know each other and taking one job, you know exactly whom you're sending packing. It's not always pleasant.
Sounds like Alfie is off to Detroit according to tsn and sportsnet. That may help us in getting a better return for Hemsky seeing how they have one more top 6 forward spot they need to fill. They seem ready to be poached as well.
No suprise we are out on Clarkson. Thank goodness. That contract is going to be stupid money.
Nice we landed Ferrence.
Looks like we are going to have lots of AHL players in the lineup to start the season though.
Smart move by the Sens to let Alfie go. 3.5 million with bonuses up to 5 million? Ridiculous. Let the fools hang themselves.
Oil land Ferrence for 4 years for over 3 million per year
Ference to the Oilers, 4 years 3.25 million per according to TSN. Great move, great money, great term. Good signing MacT.
Bubye Potter.
No real need to have Coburn now, but he would be a nice upgrade.
Musil and a 2nd round pick to Philly for Coburn.
July 05 2013, 11:31AM
The Ference signing could make Smid or N.Schultz expendable.
July 05 2013, 11:31AM
Screw Coburn, unless he brings Couturier with him.
Rumblings of Couturier to Calgary. We'll see.

Defeat won't be an option for the Crusaders when the winless Kiwi outfit tackle the unbeaten Bulls in Christchurch on Saturday.
Defeat won't be an option for the Crusaders when the winless Kiwi outfit tackle the unbeaten Bulls in Christchurch on Saturday.
It's not often the seven-time Super Rugby champions enter the fourth round seeking their first victory of the tournament. But an opening round bye followed by back-to-back defeats to the Blues and Hurricanes has left last year's semi-finalists occupying ninth spot on the overall standings.
The last time they lost their first two matches, was in 2005.
The class of 2013 are packed to the rafters with All Blacks, but have yet to look anything like the most successful team in Super Rugby history and will be desperate to make amends.
On the other end of the scale, the second-placed Bulls are one of only three unbeaten teams in the competition and riding a wave of confidence following last Sunday's impressive win over the Blues and their first at Eden Park.
It doesn't get any easier for either side, with the Crusaders' home ground advantage counting in the hosts' favour as the Bulls will once again have to rewrite the history books if they wish to retain their winning record.
The three-time champions have never beaten the Crusaders in their own back yard since 1996 (in the competition's first year when they won under the banner of Northern Transvaal) and a victory in the Garden City will ensure their first consecutive triumph over New Zealand teams on tour following that historic win over the Blues last week.
Crusaders coach Todd Blackadder knows the Bulls will be confident of removing the Christchurch bogey, and has preperared accordingly in is expected to be a near Test-like encounter.
"They play a game with a lot of box kicks so we've got to be able to take those high balls and use that ball to counter-attack. They haven't changed their game plan in the last five years and we're not expecting anything different from them," he said.
"All week we've been catching the high balls and we've got a couple of new tackling techniques to try out as they're very direct and push a lot of players straight."
However, Bulls skipper Pierre Spies begs to differ with the former Crusaders lock and said after winning the competition three times since 2007 with the same kick-chase style of play it was time to evolve and add new dimensions to their attack – as seen in their three-try win in Auckland.
"I guess we'd like to vary our game a bit and also make use of opportunities we are given. You've got to have a complete game if you want to win the competition," he said.
"And you've got to focus on your strengths also. Some days certain things work for you and other days they don't; that's why you need to be able to play in all areas of the field."
Prediction: The Crusaders are desperate for a win and can't afford another loss, which spells trouble for the Bulls who will find their next Kiwi opponents a lot more tougher than the Blues combination they met last week. No doubt the Bulls will give it horns, but we just can't picture the Crusaders losing three in a row. Can you? Crusaders by 10!
The teams:
Crusaders: 15 Israel Dagg, 14 Tom Marshall, 13 Robbie Fruean, 12 Ryan Crotty, 11 Johnny McNicholl, 10 Dan Carter, 9 Andy Ellis, 8 Kieran Read (c), 7 Matt Todd, 6 George Whitelock, 5 Dominic Bird, 4 Sam Whitelock, 3 Owen Franks, 2 Corey Flynn, 1 Wyatt Crockett.
Replacements: 16 Ben Funnell, 17 Joe Moody, 18 Tom Donnelly, 19 Luke Whitelock, 20 Willi Heinz, 21 Tyler Bleyendaal, 22 Adam Whitelock.
Bulls: 15 Zane Kirchner, 14 Akona Ndungane, 13 JJ Engelbrecht, 12 Wynand Olivier, 11 Jürgen Visser, 10 Mornè Steyn, 9 Jano Vermaak, 8 Pierre Spies (c), 7 Arno Botha, 6 Deon Stegmann, 5 Juandrè Kruger, 4 Flip van der Merwe, 3 Frik Kirsten, 2 Willie Wepener, 1 Mornè Mellett.
Replacements: 16 Chiliboy Ralepelle, 17 Werner Kruger, 18 Grant Hattingh, 19 Jacques Potgieter, 20 Francois Hougaard, 21 Louis Fouché, 22 Jan Serfontein.
Date: Saturday, March 16

On the positive side the injury was before they got on the plane so he can rest up and get well for Skate Canada.
So happy that it's nothing serious. It really scared the heck out of me!
Ah, this is dull. I was looking forward to seeing them live at the Finlandia Trophy, and now this. Fortunately it's a minor injury, and even more fortunately there's still a lot to see, Weir and Hanyu in particular. (I know this isn't really the subject of this thread but I just had to say it, so great to see them!)
Anyone else feeling almost thankful that it's Scott this time who has an injury and it's not another one for Tessa?
I know what you mean, Toni. As they used to say about runner Mary Decker, Tessa seems to be made of glass from the knees down at least. I hope it's a minor injury and that it vanishes quickly. Ice dance needs both its champion teams!
Injuries are always a bad thing but I too was relieved a bit that it wasn't Tessa's. Whew!
