For the last couple years, I've started taking a relatively simple mathematical look at each series, using shots on goal and goaltender save percentages to determine which team might be expected to win the series.
Since I'm the first one to emphasize that overall statistics (or standings) are not necessarily representative of the current value for a team, especially with respect to injuries, these statistics merely provide a baseline for the series, perhaps providing an idea what a team needs to do in order to emerge victorious.
In some cases, teams will simply need to keep doing what they've been doing throughout the regular season; in others, they might need better goaltending, or fewer shots against, or more shots for -- just something -- to provide better expected results in a seven-game series.
In last year's projections, for example, the Los Angeles Kings were picked to win three of their four playoff rounds, pretty nice for an eighth seed. Of course, the only team that was favoured to beat them, St. Louis, didn't get near the level of goaltending from Brian Elliott that he had provided in the regular season, on the way to a relatively easy four-game sweep for the eventual Stanley Cup champions.
The expected goals for each team in the series are determined by taking each team's shots for and against over the course of the season and splitting the difference.
So, for example, Boston had 32.4 shots on goal per game and Toronto allowed 32.3 shots on goal per game; the average of those two numbers, 32.35 shots, is the number that is then multiplied by (1 - the opposing goaltenders' save percentage) to determine an expected goals per game for the Bruins.
Finally, the number is multiplied by seven to indicate an expected goal total for a seven-game series. There's no guarantee that scoring more goals in a series will result in winning four games first, but the odds certainly favour the team that scores more.
Verdict: It's little surprise that the Blackhawks should be considered heavy favourites against Minnesota, with virtually all metrics favouring the Blackhawks. If the Wild are going to pull off the upset, they will need their top defence tandem of Ryan Suter and rookie Jonas Brodin to limit the Blackhawks' chances as much as possible, generate more chances than usual for their own offence and hope that they can win the goaltending battle. Given what the Blackhawks have accomplished this season, that'a a tall order.
Verdict: The percentages have played well for the Ducks this year, it's how a team ranking 16th in shot differential sits fifth in goal differential after a 48-game season. Can they keep it going? Since starting the season 22-3-4, the Ducks are 8-9-2, so regression may already be catching up to them. At the same time, the Red Wings own a better shot differential and have been getting goaltending from Jimmy Howard that is every bit as good as what Viktor Fasth and Jonas Hiller have provided for Anaheim so, while it projects as a close series, the edge goes to Detroit.
Verdict: The series forecasts as a close one, provided that Cory Schneider is indeed ready to play for Game 1. If he's not, a series with Roberto Luongo in goal would not be expected to be as close. (As you can see above, I ran the numbers for a Luongo series too and the forecasted results swing more decisively to San Jose.) What Vancouver has working in their favour is that they played much of the season without an injured Ryan Kesler and Derek Roy, acquired in a trade from Dallas, and that pair will have to be significant contributors if the Canucks are going to move on.
Verdict: Despite one of the best shot differentials in the league (plus-4.80 per game, ranking third), the defending-champion Los Angeles Kings are candidates to be bounced in the first round because goaltender Jonathan Quick has the lowest save percentage of any starting goalie in the playoffs. If the Kings' opposition was a team with top-tier goaltending, then the projection might be lopsided, but St. Louis has had their own goaltending issues this year. Brian Elliott has come on strong late in the year, with a .948 save percentage in April, but his overall numbers on the season aren't great, so this series, between two of the best groups of skaters (St. Louis' shot differential, plus-3.60, ranks sixth) with questionable goaltending figures to be one of the best in the first round.
Verdict: As great as the Penguins have been this season, their overall shot differential hasn't been great, but overall numbers don't take into account injuries to Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Kris Letang (among others), each of whom missed more than a dozen games, nor does it take into account roster additions like Brenden Morrow and Jarome Iginla that should make the current Penguins better than those shot differentials suggest. Nevertheless, the fact that the Islanders had a better shot differential does give them some hope, even as a decided underdog. If they can win the goaltending battle and, given Marc-Andre Fleury's performance in last year's playoffs that's not out of the question, then the Islanders might at least have a fighting chance.
Verdict: There isn't a greater disparity in starting goaltenders than in this series. Carey Price hasn't been bad all season long, but his 3.49 goals against average and .876 save percentage in April brought his overall numbers way down and he's matched up against Ottawa's Craig Anderson, who missed time due to injury. Anderson was off to a ridiculous start (.952 save percentage) before he got hurt and hasn't been able to stay at that unsustainable level, but his .917 save percentage since coming back from injury is still above average. In any case, the Canadiens will need Price to revert to his more reliable previous form and if that balances out the goaltending, then Montreal's superior possession numbers could prove to be the difference. One more factor to consider: the return of Senators defenceman Erik Karlsson ought to improve Ottawa's shot differential (the Senators have a plus-3.1 shot differential with Karlsson in the lineup).
Verdict: As well as the Capitals have played this season, coming on impressively after a slow start, their shot differential (minus-4.20) is second-worst among playoff teams and they match up against a Rangers team that has strong possession numbers. What the Capitals do have working for them is a lights-out power play, clicking at a league-best 26.8% this season, so if they can keep filling it up with the man advantage, that could counteract the raw shot totals but, in a short series, who knows if the power play will be firing, especially against one of the game's top goalies?
Verdict: With the league's worst shot differential, the Toronto Maple Leafs have a major uphill climb, particularly when facing off against a Bruins team that, even though they've slumped late in the season, ranks fourth (plus-3.80) in shot differential. While James Reimer has been terrific for Toronto this season, he doesn't provide an advantage head-to-head with Boston's Tuukka Rask. Toronto has been scoring on a league-best 11.5% of their shots and they'll need that kind of finishing if they are going to upend the Bruins.

Sameer Patel of Sovos Group places social technology in the context of software that enterprises already use.Interview conducted by Alan Morrison and Bo Parker
Sameer Patel, a partner at Sovos Group, has consulted on enterprise collaboration strategy and technology planning for more than 13 years, starting at USWeb (marchFIRST).
PwC: What are the more recent challenges companies have been facing on the collaboration front?
SP: The fundamental problem with those old collaborative systems was that they were devoid of context. You would see stuff thrown at you and it was not really tied into your daily flow of work. You were expected to go into these knowledge bases that are separate from where you might live.
You might be a call center rep who is living in a call center application, or you might be someone in the finance department living in ERP [enterprise resource planning] financials. These are very disconnected worlds, and the process apps focused on taking you through your processes. The knowledge management was just sitting in a vacuum waiting for you to associate context.
The true value of enterprise social computing will come from bringing data, content, and people together in the context of business activities. Context is not just a general-purpose content management effort or a knowledge management effort. Online collaboration needs to be embedded in the flow of work to get you to the end goal more effectively, as opposed to yet another place for workers to remember to go to.
PwC: What's your take on the current generation of tools and how they're moving toward that goal?
SP: You've got four camps, really. In the first camp, you have the general purpose tools that typically come from the startup community—that have garnered inspiration from consumer social tools, but are fitted for the enterprise context. In the second camp, you have the HR vendors that have been selling learning and performance management, as well as the whole HR suite. Their message is that because effective use of social technology is ultimately about people and the workforce, they're the ones best positioned to push this to you.
The third camp is ERP vendors that help organizations complete a critical process in context—the SAPs and Oracles that build process-oriented systems. Salesforce.com, obviously, is one of these. Even though the company doesn't have the entire ERP suite, it has Force.com—you can get every single conceivable ERP component from Force.com. IBM and TIBCO with tibbr can ultimately go in this camp, too.
Then the last camp is the unified communications companies. Cisco, for example, bought WebEx; has figured out video, face-to-face, online conferencing, and Voice over IP; and is now broadening the solution to include text-based engagement and collaboration.
That's essentially the lay of the land starting out.
PwC: That being the landscape, is there an inherent advantage in any one of the camps over the others?
SP: I work for a consulting firm and so do you guys, so I'm going to say, "It depends." There are tradeoffs. If you come from the process side (as a product company, for example), you have a focus that will always force you to be very disciplined about having context built in to how fluid collaboration and people connectivity can fill gaps in a traditional workflow-laden design.
A professional services company, a very people-centered business, tends to go with the central suites, whether they buy IBM Connections or Jive. It's not about sitting in ERP screens all day long; these companies don't have the same sort of workflow that a typical product company has. Less structured knowledge is the asset. So there's a big focus on using collaboration suites to reuse knowledge and improve project margins.
The HR system marketing folks may make it sound like the HR management system is neatly tied to the social technology. It's just not there yet, but I suspect they'll get there in the next 6 to 10 months. Chief HR officers will say that the stream needs to be embedded into the HR management system, because ultimately they're the ones who manage all the performance reviews, allocate resources, and manage talent and learning. And there's certainly merit to that.
At best, one or two of the standalone platforms will continue to remain alone. The enterprise software vendors will offer a social information layer as part of their content management stack. Oracle has an entire content business; so do SAP and IBM. These tools will become part of one stack (either from one vendor or via tight partnerships) that will give you content management, document management, knowledge management, and social connectivity.
PwC: What about inhibitors?
SP: One issue the media doesn't talk much about is the participation problem with some of these tools. Companies go through the hype phase and the excitement of buying Facebook-like tools for the enterprise, and then they don't know what to share. People slow down their usage, and then they stop posting their status updates because they're not seeing the value of it. This is one of the problems when participatory intent is not clear to the user and when the social platform is largely decoupled from contextual work.
The participation issue is a symptom of a deep problem with a lack of business alignment and participation incentives. These issues should be addressed before the software is rolled out. A lot of enterprises wait until the switch has been flipped to then figure out how they will get people to use it. They've really not done the proper planning or gotten the right groups to understand how it facilitates the core process they're responsible for.
People are not measured on which tool they use; they're measured on getting their work done. You have to have that alignment, which is one of the biggest issues. People will hide behind culture and other challenges such as the Millennial argument, which has some truth to it but not nearly as much as they say. The problem is that the "What's in it for me?" factor has not been identified for these users.
Another big issue is just good old politics 101. A lot of the activity and effort that's been evident so far has been emergent. For example, pockets of the company will go off and get their own accounts, and usage will start to gain some steam in engineering or in a product development group. Even if this thing starts to show promise, executives often will not get behind something that they can't take full credit for. So, if they can't say that they invented it and they're the ones who brought it to the company, then they don't get all the points for it.
The third problem is from a marketing standpoint. Often, vendors will sell stuff to an IT director or a CIO, and they present general-purpose benefits that make a lot of sense to a forward-thinking IT executive. After the purchase, those same marketing materials from the vendor are used as selling materials to the end user. When end users look at some of these nebulous outcomes, such as "Share more; it's better," they say, "All this information sharing doesn't matter to me; my target is to do 50 customer calls in the day and go home." Those outcomes need to be translated into why it makes sense for them, so there's a lot of that confusion.
The fourth problem, and this is probably one of the biggest, is I've never met a CEO or another CxO who is going to say, "We don't want to innovate and we don't want to share knowledge." The problem is that they'll often tell someone in their executive team, "OK, we're going to do this. Who's going to take ownership of this thing?" Everyone's going to look around, nod their heads, and say, "This is a fabulous idea, Bob. Why don't you take it?"
At the CEO level, of course they want more innovation and sharing, but every person sitting in that room is in charge of quota, pushing product out the door, growing a geographic footprint, and the like. That's where broad, nebulous goals such as improve innovation and sharing start to get difficult to execute. This goes back to articulating the value of social and collaborative approaches and technology in the context of known performance headaches and opportunities that executives face today.
PwC: These are systemic inefficiencies of some sort?
SP: Yes. We've been living in this myth that stuff that happens at companies is very repeatable. We put all these CRM [customer relationship management], ERP, and MRP [materials requirements planning] systems in place thinking that they're repeatable processes and we can get repeatable value out of the systems. The truth is that every single process in the enterprise is not as repeatable as we would like it to be. People have questions along the way.
ERP systems have boiled down every single business application to a submit and a cancel button, when really what users want is a giant discuss button sometimes. Users don't know the right answer sometimes, they need to get help, and they need to find the right people to help them. That need is more acute in some processes than others, for example, in areas of the company where there are inefficiencies, where products haven't gotten out the door, or where the quality is lower.
Until it's clear that social and collaborative approaches and tools can address big problems and can have operating and financial benefit, it will be challenging to make them C-suite imperatives.
"I've never met a CxO who is going to say, 'We don't want to innovate and we don't want to share knowledge.' The problem is that they'll often tell someone in their executive team, 'OK, we're going to do this. Who's going to take ownership of this thing?' Everyone's going to look around, nod their heads, and say, 'This is a fabulous idea, Bob. Why don't you take it?' "
PwC: Speaking of finding people who can help, that issue seems tied to a lack of online individual identities in a company. If the identities of each individual in the workforce were visible, how would that help?'
SP: This battle will ultimately be won on identity management. Beyond usability as a differentiator, many elements in the enterprise social software suite are becoming commodities. The magic will happen when we tie in implicit and explicit profile data elements of our individual public and historical profiles with our enterprise social profiles and, of course, HR. That's when your colleagues and others get a true sense of who you are, what you think you're good at, and, just as important, what the community thinks you're good at.
Social software can essentially help companies meet their performance objectives in much more efficient ways by facilitating connection and discussion. Once that becomes obvious, it will be surprising how many people are willing to engage.

As a national leader in mentoring, the University of Southern California is fully committed to cultivating this practice across all levels of the university. This commitment is demonstrated by the successful establishment of mentoring programs and activities for junior faculty, postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, and undergraduates.
Congratulations to the Recipients of the 2016 USC Mentoring Awards!
For a complete list of this year's awardees, please visit: https://faculty.usc.edu/mentoring/awards/2016-recipients/
Mentoring Activities and Programs
In making mentoring part of the culture at the University of Southern California, each school and several central university units have instituted mentoring programs and activities to foster the success of faculty and students.
Each year the University of Southern California recognizes faculty members across the university who have demonstrated a commitment to mentoring through the prestigious USC Mentoring Awards program and the Provost's Mentoring Award.
2015-2016 UCAPT Workshops
The Office of the Vice Provost for Academic and Faculty Affairs, in conjunction with the University Committee on Appointments, Promotion and Tenure, hosts a number of workshops for faculty each academic year to provide transparency and guidance on the tenure process.
A compilation of tools and guidance on best practices that several schools and campus units have made available for faculty mentors, faculty mentees, department chairs, and faculty who mentor students to help facilitate and enhance mentoring relationships.
A group of senior faculty who serve as liaisons to department chairs, search committee chairs and deans' offices to help support new and prospective faculty members with academic interests in diversity and inclusion. These faculty members are available to meet on an individual basis to answer questions about such topics as campus life, university resources, and living in Southern California.
From 2008 to 2015, USC partnered with the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to build on its previous achievements in integrating mentoring practices throughout the large and complex research university. This effort was founded on three insights: First, mentoring will thrive only if it becomes part of the culture. Second, the faculty is the key constituency in securing long-term change in the university. Third, mentoring will thrive as faculty increasingly understand that it is a key tool for academic success.

Hi Shan. I usually use a French baquette (I've also used whole wheat baquettes to a wonderful result). Because this soaks up a very large amount of "batter", using a bread with a hearty crust is a must so it will hold its shape.

Hypotheticals: Expansion Draft
Jonathan Willis
July 18 2009 11:18AM
Let's say for a moment that the NHL has decided to add two more franchises, like they did in 2000 (Minnesota and Columbus). The first thing they do is hold an expansion draft for the two teams, which are to be located in Hamilton and Kansas City.
The rules for the expansion draft are as they were in 2000, and are as follows (courtesy of Wikipedia):
26 of the 28 teams existing in the league at the time of the draft were each allowed to protect either one goaltender, five defensemen, and nine forwards or two goaltenders, three defensemen, and seven forwards. For teams protecting only one goaltender, there was no experience requirement for those left unprotected. For teams protecting two goaltenders, each goaltender left unprotected must have appeared in either 10 NHL games in the 1999–2000 season or 25 games in the 1998–99 season and 1999–2000 seasons combined. A goaltender had to be in net for at least 31 minutes in each game for the game to be counted against these totals. At least one defenceman left unprotected by each team had to have appeared in at least 40 games in the 1999–2000 season or 70 games in the 1998–99 season and 1999–2000 seasons combined. At least two forwards left unprotected by each team had to have met the same requirements. 52 players were chosen in the draft, two from each participating franchise. Only one goaltender or one defensemen could be selected from each franchise.
Additionally, all unsigned draft picks (except picks drafted from Europe in 1996 or earlier who remain with their European clubs) and players with two years or less of professional experience are considered protected.
Here then is the list of Oilers players that would be at risk of getting selected:
Eligible Forwards
- Gilbert Brule
- Alexander Bumagin
- Ales Hemsky
- Shawn Horcoff
- Jean-Francois Jacques
- Steve MacIntyre
- Alexei Mikhnov
- Evgeny Muratov
- Chris Minard
- Ethan Moreau
- Robert Nilsson
- Linus Omark
- Patrick O'Sullivan
- Dustin Penner
- Fernando Pisani
- Ryan Potulny
- Marc Pouliot
- Liam Reddox
- Rob Schremp
- Ryan Stone
- Zack Stortini
Eligible Defensemen
- Tom Gilbert
- Denis Grebeshkov
- Matt Nickerson
- Ladislav Smid
- Sheldon Souray
- Steve Staios
- Jason Strudwick
- Lubomir Visnovsky
Eligible Goaltenders
- Bjorn Bjurling
- Jeff Drouin-Deslauriers
- Devan Dubnyk
- Nikolai Khabibulin
*I'm not 100% sure on Linus Omark and Ryan O'Marra, but for the purpose of this exercise O'Marra will be considered exempt, since I believe O'Marra's brief AHL playoff stint in 2005-06 doesn't count as a year of professional hockey, and Omark will be considered eligible because of his professional experience in Europe.
The List
Who should the Oilers protect from this hypothetical expansion draft? I'm curious to see what the consensus is in the comments, but I'll do up my list now.
First of all, the strength of the Oilers current group is its defensive corps, so I've decided to protect nine forwards, five defenseman and one goaltender rather than seven, three and two.
Protected Forwards
I'm going to start with the forwards, since they're relatively easy:
- Ales Hemsky
- Shawn Horcoff
- Ethan Moreau
- Patrick O'Sullivan
- Dustin Penner
- Fernando Pisani
Those six were obvious, and the next three comes down to a choice between a group of Gilbert Brule, J-F Jacques, Robert Nilsson, Linus Omark, Marc Pouliot, Rob Schremp and Zack Stortini. Jacques' injury concerns, Nilsson's salary and redundancy on the roster, and Schremp's stagnation lead me to eliminate them. I also make the difficult choice to keep Zack Stortini off of the protected list because while I love his work ethic and willingness, I can't ever see him elevated much higher than the fourth line. My final three protected forwards are:
- Gilbert Brule
- Linus Omark
- Marc Pouliot
Protected Defensemen
This part of the list I found incredibly easy. I would protect the following five defensemen:
- Tom Gilbert
- Denis Grebeshkov
- Ladislav Smid
- Sheldon Souray
- Lubomir Visnovsky
Left unprotected were Steve Staios (salary, age), Jason Strudwick (depth defenseman) and Matt Nickerson (obviously).
Protected Goaltender
- Nikolai Khabibulin
This was easily the hardest part of the list. Bjorn Bjurling was an easy player to leave unprotected, while Jeff Drouin-Deslauriers came next because he is neither ready for an NHL starting role nor does he have Devan Dubnyk's potential. That left me a choice between Nikolai Khabibulin and Devan Dubnyk.
Nikolai Khabibulin would be an obvious choice if his contract wasn't so long (four years) and impossible to get out of (over 35) and there weren't other goaltenders (Biron, Fernandez) still on the market. That said, I would probably opt to protect him and expose Dubnyk unless I could hammer out an agreement in principle with Martin Biron.
Since I can also only lose one goaltender, I'd work hard to try and convince teams to take Deslauriers instead of Dubnyk. At the 2000 Draft, San Jose made trades with both Minnesota and Columbus to keep them from selecting Evgeni Nabokov, and since my team could only lose one goaltender, I'd try and make a deal if a team elected to take Dubnyk over Deslauriers.
The Unprotected
- Alexander Bumagin
- J-F Jacques
- Steve MacIntyre
- Alexei Mikhnov
- Evgeny Muratov
- Chris Minard
- Robert Nilsson
- Ryan Potulny
- Liam Reddox
- Rob Schremp
- Ryan Stone
- Zack Stortini ---
- Matt Nickerson
- Steve Staios
- Jason Strudwick ---
- Bjorn Bjurling
- Jeff Drouin-Deslauriers
- Devan Dubnyk
As the G.M. of both Hamilton and Kansas City, I would make the following selections:
Hamilton acquires Rob Schremp for agreeing not to select a goaltender.
Kansas City acquires Cody Wild for agreeing not to select Devan Dubnyk, and selects Jeff Drouin-Deslauriers.
Hamilton selects Robert Nilsson.

C'mon man. We have to cut the ESL students on here a bit of slack.
Man you folks are a dedicated bunch talking about hypotheticals on a 28 degree day outside! Sheesh!
How many years has Omark played. How the hell is he on the list. Hemsky is way over rated. He does nothing on 5 on 5. Pouliot is a joke he only played well in quebec cause he was on Crosbys line.
Its a shame you undervalue what Zack brings to the team. 4th liners are a needed asset too.
This is a great article for a Canucks fan living in make believe.

For all those lovely people who don't like the hypothetical article: I'm a draft geek. I like doing up mock drafts, I like thinking about what I would do as a GM in different situations.
I realize that many of you aren't interested, in which case I'd advise you to just skip the article.

Side note: A friend of mine works for the Rebels, he told me last night that D/B Sutter were both just in Kelowna talking to Heatly... Wouldn't that just be icing on the cake.

I don't understand. ~With incredible talent like Brule, Potulny, and Schremp languishing in the minors; it's clear that expansion is required~

@ Chris: Ha. The fact that 1 team last year (the Islanders)couldnt even find a 20 goal scorer suggests to me that the league is too thin on talent. Between 30 NHL teams and Players jumping ship to play in Siberia there isnt enough talent to fill the NHL.

Cute, comfy, combat!
"i bought these boots in brown, and they are very comfortable. They are also really fun to wear. This was my first day wearing them, and my feet felt great after 12 hours. I received several compliments on them, even from guys. They work well over skinny jeans, and the mix of browns in the quilting and the rest of the boot makes them versatile with just about any shade of brown clothing. Definitely a must-buy, and I think I'm going to be wearing these every chance I get!"

The newly elected officials, Kevin Reynolds and Courtney Cox were sworn in by Ruanne Leeflang. Once that was complete the council approved the budget and approved the minutes from last council meeting. The time was then turned over to Joyce Law who expressed concern over the appearance of Main Street and asked what she could do, if anything, to help the city improve the appearance.
There was concern over a few properties on Main Street that the council felt they needed to start getting cleaned up. Dennis Tuttle read the ordinance regarding yard appearance which included items such as overgrown trees, shrubs and weeds, anything that could be a fire or safety hazard and obsolete cars. James Davis then stated there have been some ideas given to the council they will be looking at over the next few months and how the city can achieve the funding through grants in order to improve the appearance of Main Street. Joyce Law offered her help for anything that was needed. The council agreed they would contact her if any help was needed and this would be a priority over the next year to begin improving Orangeville's Main Street.
The council discussed the new upcoming completion of the recreation center. Davis expressed there was some discussion regarding the delaying of the stuccoing of the outside of the building due to cold weather. If they were to apply the stucco now there would be no guarantee the stucco would not crack at some point. It was discussed that by delaying the stuccoing until the spring, there would be a better chance of the stucco not cracking. It was approved by the council to allow Stilsons two additional months to complete the stucco on the exterior of the building without any penalty or fees. All other items that are not related to the exterior of the building will still need to be completed by the original date in February.
The council approved to increase the amount that the city will pay for a water share from $400 to $750. Up until now the city was only allowed to pay $400. The cost of a water share on the market right now is $1,500. The city has not purchased any new water shares since 2006 and by increasing the amount the city will pay will make it a little easier for the city to acquire and purchase water shares that are needed. Carole Larsen stated they are still needing people from the public to be on the planning and zoning committee and she will be speaking with city members regarding this matter. The council approved to send Dennis Tuttle to an Ordinance and Compliance Training. Council meeting was then dismissed until their meeting in February.

Earth's Best Organic Foods Organic foods offer countless healthful benefits for you, your children and the world. With Earth's Best you can be sure you are giving your family high quality organic foods. Why Organic? Choosing organic is choosing to live a healthy life. Organic foods are produced without the use of potentially harmful chemicals pesticides, genetically engineered ingredients or growth hormones for animal-derived products. This is even more important when we consider infants. For four to six months following birth, infants receive most of their nutrition from breast milk or infant formula. It is so important that these formulas contain safe ingredients. Many people choose organic foods to limit their exposure to more harmful pesticides that are used in conventional farming. More research is needed to determine the effect of different types and levels of pesticides used in agriculture on biomarkers of human health. Both genetically engineered ingredients and growth hormones are prohibited practices as enforced by the National Organic Program. Earth's Best organic products do not contain genetically engineered ingredients (GEIs), which are made by inserting genes from one plant into a strain of another to produce more crops or control pests. Foods like meat and dairy that are certified as organic are also produced without the use of growth hormones as well. Why organic? It is better for you, your child and the environment they will grow up in. The Earth's Best Difference: Organic ingredients grown without harmful pesticides No Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) Most items are made only from whole grains No added salt, modified starches or refined sugars No artificial flavors, colors or preservatives Kosher (excluding meat varieties) Rigorous product testing Earth's Best Organic Ingredients Earth's Best products are Certified Organic by Oregon Tilth and Quality Assurance International, agencies accredited by the USDA's National Organic Program. That means they manufacture products that do not contain genetically modified organisms (GMOs) or potentially harmful pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers. It also means they can proudly display the USDA Organic logo on packaging of those products that are at least 95% organic. No Genetically Modified Organisms Whole Grains Kosher Certified Earth's Best Quality Promise Earth's Best is committed to ensuring your child grows up with safe, high quality ingredients and foods. Earth's Best produces food with the highest degree of attention to quality and safety. Each ingredient is tested for pesticides and potentially harmful residues. No product is released until their quality assurance department approves laboratory results, ensuring they meet the strict standards for organic certification. Earth's Best organic infant formula contains no toxic chemicals or heavy metals. Ingestion may compromise long-term immune system development. Earth's Best organic infant cereals provide an excellent source of iron to aid early physical and neurological development and restore the iron depletion that results after birth. Earth's Best organic baby juice comes from fresh pressed, undiluted, single strength juice. We do not use juice from concentrate. Earth's Best organic produce does not expose infants to the higher level of contaminants found in conventional produce. Proportionately, babies consume up to four times the fruits and vegetables that adults consume. Earth's Best organic jarred fruits provide an excellent source vitamin C to aids the absorption of iron and help fight infections.

ENVE Program Educational Objectives
Program objectives, as defined by ABET, are broad statements that describe the career and professional accomplishments the program is preparing graduates to achieve, i.e. what we expect the graduates to be doing 2-5 years after graduation.

n to Sound Shapes
Wassup people of the Sound Shapes forum. This is a great community we have for the game, I'm really feelin' the vibe. I'd like to share with you guys an idea of what I'd like to see Queasy Games make, and I think you'll find it very interesting.
First, from the help of this video, I''ll put the idea in your mind so you'll get what I'm saying:
So after watching that, let me tell you my idea. Of course, that was an effect that Serevolution made in the video, not really how you play the game. But that is how I wish the game was played, as a scroller that doesn't stop. Say you playing as your little dot (Ooh, what a cute little dot he is) in a level that's scroling, this isn't about collecting notes anymore. This is about truely testing your creativity, making your beat and the ultimate scrolling platformer with obstacles and all that good stuff. Also, this would ELIMINATE the irritation of some songs getting repetitive and not able to change into mega dope notes, you would place your notes on each scale it scrolls through. Pl- Pl- Pl- Please, Queasy Games!!!
*Drops the mic and walks off stage*
Re: Proposal to Sound Shapes
Re: Proposal to Sound Shapes
Dude - I gave you that mic! And you're just going to.. wow.. just.. ... wow.
Also cool video; he seems like he knows what he's doing, but why'd he use such an ugly colored background? And yes, that idea would rock!


text: Jewkes Dance Studio presented the Nutcracker on Dec. 10 and 11 in the Emery High Auditorium. The ballet was under the direction of Stacey Jewkes and Shannon Erickson. The production involved more than 100 children and adults. "I really appreciate all of the students, parents and community members who have helped with this production. This was a nonprofit event and we hope to put any proceeds back into the community," said Jewkes. The Nutcracker is set in Germany and tells the tale of Fritz and Marie Stahlbaum who receive gifts from Herr Drosselmeyer. Marie receives a nutcracker which is broken by her jealous brother. Later that evening the nutrcracker and all of the toys become lifesized. A fight breaks out with the mice and the nutcracker kills the mouse king and the nutcracker is transformed into a prince. The prince and Marie go to the land of sweets and they are led on the path by the snow queen and icicles. After arriving at the kingdom of sweets, Marie and the prince are entertained by many dancers. Drosselmeyer gently carries Marie back to her home as the court waves goodbye.

The Lancers (16-8/13-3 PWC) entered with just two loses in PWC and sat in 2nd place with a slim lead over the Red Storm (14-8/11/5 PWC). DSU closed the gap on CBU with their victory today and will continue to try and make up more ground in their remaining four matches.
CBU opened up the first set with a vengeance, as they built and early 9-1 lead, only to see DSU and serving star Alex Anderson (Prescott, AZ/Prescott) rattle off six straight points to close the Lancer lead at 9-7. The two squads see-sawed back and forth until CBU forced a Red Storm error late in the game and took a 24-21 lead and had serve to win the opening game. But, Maddie Rex (Tucson, AZ/Sabino) followed with a kill and then held serve to rally the Storm for four straight points to steal the opener 26-24.
Game two and three were all the Lancers. DSU managed to score just 26 points combined in the two games, including just five kills and nine errors (-.138) in game three. CBU outside hitter Kim McCalmont and Jelena Dragovic were too much for the Red Storm to handle.
Game four the Red Storm found some life in their legs and rallied to open up a 13-10 lead when Nicole Koehler (Sandy, UT/Alta) and Shannon Young (Whittier, CA/St Paul) blocked Jenna Perry and forced a CBU timeout.
Out of the timeout the two teams traded points, with the Lancers trying to go for the final kill and the Red Storm gasping for their last breath. With the fourth game tied at 19-19, Rex served three straight points, including a service ace to give DSU a 22-19 advantage. But, like every good battle, the Lancers responded and cut the DSU lead to 23-22 and force a DSU timeout.
Following the timeout, Pauline VonDinklage (American Samoa/Fagaitua) found the back corner of the floor to give the Red Storm a 24-22 lead. Young would close out the game with a powerful blast down the line to force the fifth, winner take all set.
CBU returned with a vengeance and opened the match with three straight points. But, DSU answered with a block from Bird and VonDinkalge and a kill from Koehler to cut it to 3-2. The two teams traded blows until the Red Storm took a 14-12 lead on a kill from Young to force match point.
The Lancers responded with a kill from McCalmont, and two attack errors from the Red Storm and took a 15-14 lead.
Rex responded for the Red Storm with a laser kill to tie the match at 15 all. Each team would take a swing and the other would respond until two straight CBU hitting errors sealed the comeback for Dixie State with a 19-17 game five victory.
"We didn't play the best we have all year," said head coach Robyn Felder. "But, we had the most heart and we left everything on the floor."
Young led DSU and tied for a match-high 18 kills and Rex followed with 11 kills of her own. The Storm only hit .121 for the match, but ended up on the right side of the win column. Setter Soreneson had 35 assists and Anderson added 15 digs.
Three Lancer players finished with double digit kills, McCalmont tied Rex with 18, Dragovic added 15 and Lauren Marr had 10 to hit .190 as a team.
CBU won the battle of the nets with 38 block assists and one solo block. DSU had 30 assisted blocks.
Dixie State began the five-game home stand on the right note and will continue on Wednesday when they host Hawaii Hilo at 6 pm in the Student Activities Center.

By NEMCC Media Relations
BOONEVILLE – Northeast Mississippi Community College sophomore pitcher Erin Dixson of Amherst, New York has been named the Mississippi Association of Community/Junior Colleges (MACJC) Pitcher and Player of the Week.
Dixson helped lead the Lady Tigers to a 3-1 mark in Northeast's annual TigerFest Tournament on Saturday, February 24 and Sunday, February 25 both offensively and defensively.
At the plate, Dixson earned the MACJC Player of the Week award when the Lady Tiger sophomore went 5-for-9 with a double, two home runs and also drove in four runs while scoring three and only struck out once the entire weekend.
"Erin has been working hard on the mound and offensively," said Northeast softball coach Jody Long. "It's a great honor to get the award for the first week that the MACJC offers it."
Dixson picked up the MACJC Pitcher of the Week award as the Lady Tiger sophomore threw 13.2 innings allowing seven runs – just two earned – and struck out 13 against three walks in amassing a 2-0 record.
On the mound, Dixson was a force against the tenth-ranked team in the country – Muskegon (Mich.) – as the Amherst, New York native held the Lady Jayhawks in check all game.
Dixson only surrendered three hits to the Lady Jayhawks and struck out six while going the distance in the win against Muskegon.
However, Dixson also made an impact against the Lady Jayhawks at the plate. The New York native gave Northeast a lead it would not relinquish when Dixson connected on a Taylor Lemke offering and put the Lady Tigers up for good 3-2 with a one-out solo home run to left center in the bottom of the fourth.
"I am glad that I received an accomplishment like this. I have never done something like this before," Dixson said. "My team beat the tenth-ranked team in nation. We really came together as a team and I am really proud of us for accomplishing that."
Dixson, who saw action in all four of the Lady Tigers games over the weekend, became part of a pitching duel against Baton Rouge (La.) in the first day's nightcap.
Dixson teamed with Bianca Chagolla to throw a four-hitter and strike out nine combined against the Lady Bears as Baton Rouge's Haley Grantham threw a four-hitter herself and struck out 10 in the effort.
Against Lincoln Land (Ill.), Dixson helped the Lady Tigers to a five-run second inning as the Lady Tiger sophomore collected her third RBI of the tournament in the frame.
After Andrea Cutts got the ball rolling on the big inning for the Lady Tigers, Dixson chased home the Ackerman native with a double off the wall in right center an at bat later.
Dixson did it with her legs as well as the New York product scored from second on a ground ball to second that Becky Robinson legged out with two outs in the inning.
Dixson picked up her second win of the weekend when the Lady Tiger sophomore pitched six strong innings against Southwest Tennessee in the finale of the TigerFest Tournament.
In the win, Dixson limited the Lady Saluquis to just six hits – all singles – while striking out six in earning the win.
Dixson also set the stage for a comeback against the Lady Saluquis with a one-out, solo home run to dead center in the third inning and Haleigh Moffett and Ellen Tarrant provided two more runs that gave Northeast a 5-4 lead after both scored on Southwest Tennessee miscues in the inning.
Cutts added a pair of insurance runs when the Lady Tiger sophomore scored two with her triple to right and Dixson tacked on one more with her single to left center.
Dixson and the rest of the Lady Tigers return to action on Wednesday, February 27 as Northeast travels to Memphis, Tenn., to take on Southwest Tennessee in a scheduled doubleheader. First pitch is set for 2 p.m.

Great, everyday winter bootie
"I've been looking for a good, dark brown bootie to replace the ones I had worn out. This one is trendy ~ thicker heel, straps & buckle with faux fur detailing ~ but classic enough that you could wear it in future winter & fall seasons. It goes great with skinny jeans as well as boot and flare styles. I would say the only drawback is that the description stated you could wear it with the fur cuff pulled up, but it doesn't look very good and there's no buckle or snap to pull the two sides together. So when you wear regular pants the pant leg will sometimes get caught up in the cuff. So I just wear with the cuff down. And in that way, it's perfect!"

Gospel Reading
Document Actions
16th Thursday after Pentecost
The Gospel according to Mark 10:17-27
At that time, as Jesus was setting out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?" And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: 'Do not kill, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.' " And he said to him, "Teacher, all these I have observed from my youth." And Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said to him, "You lack one thing; go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me." At that saying his countenance fell, and he went away sorrowful; for he had great possessions. And Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How hard it will be for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!" And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, "Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." And they were exceedingly astonished, and said to him, "Then who can be saved?" Jesus looked at them and said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God."

So So
I was free so I replied...
"Religion is the masterpiece of the art of animal training, for it trains people
as to how they shall think."
Arthur Schopenhauer - Pessimism
Well, let me say this, No one is really shocked that sabo is alive, koala was honestly more of a shocker, I think the way he showed up was the surprise. I mean oda kind of confirmed him still being alive a while ago just some people did not want to go along with it, just yet. Now it's been double confirmed.
But I think that the main thing is that we are going to get to see what sabos got ! I don't really care if he eats the DF or not. I mean it could be cool, it might not be, But for all we know he might not even want to eat it or may not be able too. He could have his own DF, for sure he must be confident that hes strong enough to handle some of the strongest guys around. I would like to see if he maybe had something more unique than just haki. maybe a unique fighting style, or a unique weapon, maybe a DF weapon of some kind would be cool. If he has a DF, idk i hope its not something to conventional, I hope its something a little off the wall. I can not wait to see him beat some A** either way.

The grunge trend has come back on the scene several times since it died in the '90s, its endless appeal associated with early MTV, sneaking backstage at concerts, and living the life of a high school rebel with a flannel shirt and a lot of eye liner. And while those things may not sound appealing to those with a taste more chic, there's a bit of too-cool-to-care in all of us that can relate to an editorial like this one. CeCe Yoost embodies the ultimate grunge-glam element in No. Magazine (shot by Karen Inderbitzen-Waller), with the no-fail ingredients mentioned above and an untamed helping of denim separates.

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
I first met Mr. Lancaster when he came to Huntington Elementary to become principal. He replaced Mr. Bawden long time principal at the school. When I became the PTA president of the school in 1996, I really came to know Mr. L. and his devotion to children and their education.
While working with Mr. L he allowed us to pretty much start whatever programs we thought would be helpful and he supported us in all we did. There are programs which Mr. L. helped us to establish that are ongoing at the school today. When we told him we were going to have a Valentine's Carnival he was very supportive. We hadn't heard of a carnival of this type before but we thought we would give it a try and it has been very successful, mostly due to the support of Mr. L. and later Mr. Tom Baltzer who became principal at the school.
I remember when Mr. L went out for his liver transplant and the love and support that came from the students and staff at the school. They were very concerned for his health and couldn't wait for him to come back to school. After the transplant, Mr. L. decided to step down from Huntington Elementary and take a job at the district office where he continued to guide elementary education. His concern was always the children and what was best for them.
When he took the principal job at Cleveland Elementary I had the privilege of interviewing him and announcing his new position in the paper. He was delighted that he would again be working closely with the children. When I asked him if juggling his time between the district office and the school would be difficult for him, he felt confident that he could fulfill both positions; but he let me know that Cleveland Elementary and his responsibilities there would come first. He said the first thing he was going to do was learn the name of every child in the school and I know he accomplished that. He was available to the children and always interested in their well being and activities. He called me often at the newspaper to invite me over to take pictures of the students when they had accomplished great things and I was happy to go see what they'd been up to. He had fun with the students and enjoyed them.
I will miss his delightful sense of humor and quick wit. He knew how to make people smile and feel good about themselves. He was never worried about himself and the circumstances he came to be in with his health, he was always concerned about others and how they were doing. In doing interviews with him I never heard him ever feel sorry for himself or ever express any negative thoughts. He was probably one of the most positive people that I have ever met.
Our school district has lost a great educator and the world has lost a great man. There are few with his great compassion and strength. He will be missed by numerous children and their parents and all the people he has worked with through the years.

In Greek, Apostle means "one sent forth." It was the title Jesus gave to the Twelve whom he chose and ordained to be his closest disciples and helpers during his ministry on earth (Luke 6:13; John 15:16). He sent them forth to represent him and to minister for him after his ascension into heaven. Both anciently and in the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in the restored Church today, an Apostle is a special witness of Jesus Christ in all the world to testify of his divinity and of his resurrection from the dead (Acts 1:22; D&C 107:23).

- Lehi and Nephi saw the twelve Apostles following Jesus:1 Ne. 1:10;
1 Ne.11:34;
- Apostles are to judge the house of Israel:Morm. 3:18;
- Those who do not heed the words of the prophets and Apostles shall be cut off:D&C 1:14; ( 3 Ne. 12:1; )
- The calling and mission of the Twelve were revealed:D&C 18:26–36;
- Joseph Smith was ordained an Apostle:D&C 20:2;
- Apostles are special witnesses of Christ's name and bear the keys of the ministry:D&C 27:12; ( D&C 112:30–32; )

- I say unto all the Twelve: follow me, and feed my sheep:D&C 112:14–15;
- We believe in Apostles:A of F 1:6;
Selection of Apostles
Apostles are chosen by the Lord (John 6:70; 15:16).
- Of his disciples, Jesus chose twelve Apostles:Luke 6:13–16;
- Matthias was chosen to be an Apostle:Acts 1:21–26;
- Oliver Cowdery and David Whitmer were commanded to search out the Twelve:D&C 18:37–39;

Comments: Bag fits every piece of my goalie gear. The wheels work really well and the bag holds up well. The skate pockets on the ends on the inside of the bag tend to allow the skate to move out of the pocket enough and then if sat up right durring that shift it will cut the bag (happened to me). The zippers are really tough and take a lot of stress from cramming everything into the bag. All in all a nice bag, it is really useful and holding up great.

Ed Drakich named Volleyball Canada's Beach High Performance Director
OTTAWA - Volleyball Canada is pleased to announce the nomination of Mr. Ed Drakich as Beach High Performance Director, effective immediately.
This is Ed's third tenure with Volleyball Canada. He was VC's Beach Technical Director in 1994 and the Technical Director between 2004 and 2007, during which time he also served as the Beach High Performance Director from 2005 to 2007.
Ed's experience in volleyball spans over more than 3 decades. As a player in both Indoor and Beach volleyball, he represented Canada internationally in over 300 matches and participated in the Beach volleyball competition at the 1996 Olympic games in Atlanta.
Ed is currently the Head Coach of the Men's Varsity team at the University of Toronto. In addition to coaching university, college and club volleyball, Ed has coached some of Canada's finest beach volleyball players. Ed has a diploma in High Performance Coaching from the National Coaching Institute Ontario and is a fully certified NCCP Level 4 volleyball coach and a Level 3 beach volleyball coach.
Ed also has extensive experience as an administrator. Besides his former positions as a staff member with Volleyball Canada and the Ontario Volleyball Association, he has been an FIVB Technical supervisor for numerous Beach volleyball events since 1996. He was the Tournament Director at the Montreal Open in 2002 and at the Toronto Open in 1998, 1999 and 2000. He was also the Competition Director at the FIVB World Tour event in Montreal in 2005, 2006 and 2007 and has recently been named to the same position for the 2011 FIVB World Tour event in Quebec City coming up this July.
"We are very excited to welcome Ed back to the Volleyball Canada family" said Mark Eckert, VC's Executive Director. "His knowledge and experience will undoubtedly be a great asset to our Beach National Team program".
Ed is originally from Toronto, where he still resides with his wife Heather and their two sons, Ben and Adam

Phil Everly, one half of the brother vocal duo whose sibling harmonies sweetened '50s and '60s rock music, has died. He was 74.
He died Friday in Burbank of complications from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, after a lifetime of smoking, his wife, Patti Everly, told the Los Angeles Times.
The Associated Press confirmed the news with his son, Jason Everly.
"We are absolutely heartbroken," Patti Everly told the newspaper. "He fought long and hard."
The Everly Brothers, Phil and Don, whose tight harmonies were unmistakable and unforgettable, profoundly influenced everyone from The Beatles and The Byrds to the Beach Boys and Simon & Garfunkel, as well as countless other rock, folk and country singers, starting in the late 1950s.
A generation of teens grew up with their high, clarion voices blasting from car radios on Wake Up Little Susie, Bye Bye Love, Cathy's Clown and All I Have to Do Is Dream.
Singer Linda Ronstadt, who had a big hit in 1975 with When Will I Be Loved, which Phil wrote, and who herself grew up in Tucson singing with her siblings, told the L.A. Times there's nothing like vocals produced by family.
"The information of your DNA is carried in your voice, and you can get a sound (with family) that you never get with someone who's not blood-related to you," she said. "And they were both such good singers — they were one of the foundations, one of the cornerstones of the new rock 'n' roll sound."
In October, Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong and jazz-pop singer Norah Jones released a tribute album, Foreverly. Armstrong was full of admiration for the brothers.
The Everly harmonies "are so immaculate," Armstrong told USA TODAY. "And that record (the duo's second album, Songs Our Daddy Taught Us) was pretty daring at the time. A lot of other rock guys were trying to go pop. Chuck Berry had a string of big hits, and the same with Jerry Lee Lewis and Elvis. And here the Everlys were playing these torch songs and murder ballads. For them to do something so dark and angelic was appealing to me."
The duo was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1986.
On Twitter, boomers mourned, or at least boomers with Twitter accounts. Presidential historian Michael Beschloss tweeted a concert poster from 50 years ago in England where the Everly Brothers got top billing over the Rolling Stones.
Phillip Everly was born on Jan. 19, 1939, in Chicago, the son of two country musicians, Ike and Margaret Everly. The family was a traveling act, and the brothers started performing together on the family radio show.
Bye Bye Love was their breakthrough hit, in 1957, and their first million-seller. Also in 1957, Wake Up Little Susie, about two teenagers falling asleep at the drive-in theater and waking after curfew, was banned in Boston for its slightly suggestive lyrics. It went to No. 1.
In addition to his wife, Everly is survived by his brother, who will be 77 in February; their mother, Margaret; sons Jason and Chris; and two granddaughters.

Pacific Blue Spreads Its Wings To Wellington New Direct Flights To Sydney From March 1017/12/2003
Pacific Blue Airlines has announced it will increase its daily services across the Tasman by introducing a new direct service from Wellington to Sydney.
Chief Executive Tony Marks touched down in the Capital this morning, on the centenary of powered flight, to deliver the exciting news that Pacific Blue aircraft will soon be touching down in the city on a daily basis.
Pacific Blue will operate direct daily flights between Wellington and Sydney from 10 March next year following tremendous lobbying by business and tourism operators as well as the helpful co-operation of Wellington International Airport.
A special "wow" launch fare is now available with $99* seats up for grabs and on sale from now until 25 December 2003, for travel between 10 March to 30 November 2004.
Once the sale fare is over, low fares will continue with Mid-Week Mini-Fares on sale for $149* one-way on the net. Pacific Blue's Fully Flexible fare will be $399* one-way, 42% cheaper than the competition.
The commitment to fly to Wellington honours a promise made by Virgin Blue CEO Brett Godfrey back in 2001 during a flying visit to Wellington with a Virgin Blue aircraft en route to Australia.
Pacific Blue CEO Tony Marks said, "Wellington has been on Pacific Blue's radar screen for some time and we are excited to be confirming it as our second NZ gateway."
He continued, "While there may be plenty of Trans-Tasman competition to Auckland, Wellington until now has been largely overlooked and trapped in an airline duopoly and we are confident the combination of low fares and friendly service will appeal to both business and leisure travellers."
Wellington Mayor Kerry Prendergast said, "This is fantastic for Wellington. It confirms that the Capital is becoming increasingly popular as a tourism destination out of Australia. More Trans-Tasman competition means more Australians will choose to visit Wellington and that's terrific news for our local tourism industry."
Mayor Prendergast added, "I would like to congratulate Wellington International Airport, Wellington's tourism industry and Pacific Blue for working together to achieve this result."
Meanwhile, Pacific Blue has also announced a daily Christchurch to Sydney service from 10 March with a $99* fare available for both the Christchurch and Wellington flights to Sydney. The Christchurch-Sydney sale fare is also available now and is for travel between 10 March and 30 November 2004.
*As per industry practice all fares in New Zealand are shown in NZ$ and exclude taxes and charges
* Seats are limited and may not be available on all flights or peak days. Fares are quoted ex-New Zealand, one way on the net ($10 more by phone). Fares are exclusive of government departure tax, airport passenger service charge of $20.20 and security levy of $6.85. Prices & charges are in NZD. International flights commencing January 2004 subject to receipt of Government approvals. Mid-Week-Mini-Fares are available for travel on Tuesdays & Wednesdays and are subject to availability.
Due to day light savings the timings may vary at certain periods of the year. Timings also may vary on weekends.
This schedule is designed to allow convenient timings for travellers to and from the entire Nelson, Marlborough and Wairarapa regions.

"I bought these shoes a month ago and I am loving these shoes! They fit my feet great (I have very narrow feet with really high arches). I use these every day at the gym and have even taken them out running a few times when there hasn't been too much snow on the ground. Super cute, super comfy shoe. Love them!"

"I used the Reebok Zig for the passed 2 years and for everything. Outdoors, indoors, running, walking and even on the beach. You can't go wrong with a nice color but the fit is the most important part of the package. These helped me with my somewhat delicate bones and still continue to help. Hope to get another pair soon."

I think both understood how to get under teh other's collar... as I said I don't think they liked each other, but I think they respected each brought skills to the table.
I didn't watch the debates because the vitrol each side spews does nothing to tell the truth of policies... it's more like recess antics by children.
Yes, it is like children's recess taunts. It might be that debating is a craft, and most pols actually don't know how to do it. (I had a friend who was on her college debating team. Real debaters are devotees of the science.) These guys' approximation of debating is kind of like Caroline Zhang's approximation of a triple lutz. (And you know I love Caroline, but she isn't known for her jump technique.) The real thing is very different from the slash-and-burn we so often see. You have to be very fast off the mark to be good at it, as Clinton is and before him John Kennedy. You also have to be unafraid of the unexpected moment. There was a charming moment during an earlier primary cycle, when John McCain (this was not in the 2008 season, when he was the candidate--it may have been in 2000) was asked whether he'd keep Alan Greenspan as the head of the Federal Reserve. He said, not only would he keep Greenspan, but if anything happened to Greenspan, he'd prop him up like the corpse in Weekend at Bernie's so it looked as if Greenspan were still heading the Fed. It was funny, human, and indicative of what McCain actually believed about economic policy.
Actually, one of the best debates in recent years was the vice-presidential debate between Dick Cheney and Joseph Lieberman. Both of them were respectful and cogent. Most people who watched felt they learned a lot. I supported one and not the other, but I felt I was listening to a reasonable discussion of why each was running for office.
As for Romney and character assassination, I didn't cast my vote because I thought Romney was a terrible character, so if any attempted smirching was done, it didn't work with me. I voted for Obama because about what Romney said about himself and his policies. I don't believe that an unrestrained free market is a good thing, and, paradoxically, it doesn't benefit capitalism. One of the great worries I have about modern society is the huge differential between the salary of an ordinary worker and the salary of the head of a corporation. I think the ratio is something like 1:125, and that kind of inequality is inherently destabilizing. I don't resent the rich, but that particular kind of imbalance of resources and power is not healthy in the long run.

I always liked Joseph Liberman, regardless of what side he was on. And looking back Cheney wasn't as bad as I thought he was in real time. I'll have to dig up that debate sometime.
In eight years Reagan almost tripled the national debt as a percent of gross domestic product. (Obama is a piker in this regard.) Unfortunately for America, the bill did eventually come due, 20 years later.

Congratulations to Obama on his victory! I hope that now, with the election out of the way, we can focus more on national unity rather than party division.
I always hope. We deserve a government that figures things out and works for us.
