This Ain't '08!!!
by The Unknown Buffalo Bill
posted Nov 22 2011 2:15PM
Hey Bills fans,
Another rough outing, but is it time to give up on the playoffs like everyone is saying? Are we really the 2008 Bills? I don't think so…at least not yet! It's ok if you disagree, but at least hear me out. Let me start by asking you a question: If we started this season 0-5, then won 5 straight to bring us to 5-5, would you still say we are done? Or would you say, "I don't know, I think these guys have a chance!?" I think the latter, everyone knows it's hard to keep 11-5 teams out of the playoffs, and a lot of time 10-6 teams make it too. So are we out of this thing yet? No. If we keep this crap up the next couple weeks then we will be and I'll agree with you, but not today and not yet.
So do you also think we are the 2008 Bills? Nope. Here's why: That team is history. Let me ask you another question: How many players, coaches, and football operation staff are left from that year? Not many at all. Most of our guys have no clue what the 2008 Bills did, nor do they care. These guys are here to do their thing and make this a winning place.
Ok, so from the outside it seems the same. The 2008 team started hot and then fell apart. This team started hot and has had a three-week letdown. That is not enough to justify the comparison to me. The media can make such a general statement as this and people believe it blindly. My college coach always said, "Don't worry about the outcome, worry about the process." If you look at more than just the win-loss column you will see what's going on here. You will see that we played just as hard the last minute of the Miami game as the first. You will see that we haven't and don't plan to give up. You can see a winning team trying to break through the surface. It may be this week or it may be next year but you can see what is being built here, not what is falling apart as the season progresses.
Sometimes you take a step back, that's fine, just make sure you take two steps forward after that. Sometimes you fail, that's fine, just learn from it and try again. Look at the big picture Bills fans, we are putting together a winning team and we are doing it fast. There has only been one team to go undefeated in NFL history. Everyone loses at some point. Lots of teams lose more than three games. Just most don't lose them all in a row. I get that and feel the frustration. But it's ok as long as you win three in a row to make up for it. Don't give up on us just yet.
Now, time to answer some of your questions you've been kind enough to send to Christian Dan (email@example.com).
Growing up, who did you pretend to be playing football in the back yard, and again in high school? - Mary, Greece
Thanks for that awesome question! Think I just zoned out for about 10 minutes re-living some great memories!!! To answer your question, I pretended to be a couple of different players. I was "Primetime," or "Neon Deion." Yes. Deion Sanders. Remember the black -and-white sneaks? Almost zebra print looking? Sure had me a pair and loved to celebrate after touchdowns.
How would you fix college football to include a playoff? What would be your system? -Missy, Canandaigua
I (just like everyone else who has an opinion) have the perfect solution! You keep all the bowl games in place and sell tickets just the same with this exception. Teams ranked 3-6 will use two of the four major bowls as a first-round playoff while teams ranked 1 and 2 essentially get a first-round bye. After that, the winners then play teams ranked 1 and 2 in the other two major bowls. The winners from those games play in the National Championship game. With this model several things happen:
If you finish the season in the top six, you have a chance at the title
The longest a season can possibly be extended is two extra games! And that is only if you are ranked 3-6 and keep winning.
Baseball is going to HGH testing soon. How soon will the NFL and do you think it will work? - Gene, Webster
I think it will be within the next couple of years that it is accepted in the NFL. The NFLPA has made it clear to us that they are happy to embark on HGH testing once it's proven
. At this time it is
. There is the possibility that a player that has not done HGH can test positive for it and ruin his career. Currently tests and studies are in the process to show and make the testing reliable. Once that is done it will immediately be in place.
Alright Bills fans, I'll catch up with you later in the week and let you know the vibe in the locker room going into a huge Jets game.
(For Now) Your No-Named Buffalo Bill

The collection and analysis of law enforcement data is a process that continues to yield valuable information for law enforcement and help advance community policing. For example, law enforcement statistics can help agencies do the following:
The COPS Office, in its ongoing partnership with the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS), has provided funding and substantive expertise for the collection and dissemination of law enforcement statistics through its support of the Law Enforcement Management and Administrative Statistics (LEMAS) survey. The LEMAS survey is administered by the BJS to all law enforcement agencies with 100 or more sworn personnel, as well as a representative sample of smaller agencies. As a result, law enforcement data has been collected on a nationally representative sample of nearly 18,000 publicly funded state and local law enforcement agencies operating full time.
The LEMAS survey program began with its 1987 administration. Updated versions were completed in 1990, 1993, 1997, 2000, and 2003. The 1997 version marked the first time that the COPS Office was invited, through an Interagency Agreement, to participate in survey development, resulting in the addition of a new LEMAS survey section called "Community Policing Activities." In 1999, the COPS Office funded a special LEMAS administration that would enable an analysis of community policing changes over time. The COPS Office provided additional support to the LEMAS survey in 2000 and 2003.
Enhanced by the ongoing collaboration between BJS and COPS, the LEMAS surveys continue to be instrumental in assessing the state of law enforcement in the United States. A series of reports summarizing the statistical information collected in the LEMAS surveys can be found in Guides and Reports.
The COPS Office has supported other law enforcement statistics projects in partnership with BJS, including the following:
The COPS Office has also identified Links to Other Resources and may provide a starting point for individuals seeking additional law enforcement statistics.

Today we received a call from the neighbor below us that his ceiling was showing signs of a water leak. In checking our bathroom. The tiles in the floor next to our cast iron tub were sunken slightly in the corner near the drain. When removed the sand under the tile was wet. It appears this has been a problem before. The tub is wall to wall in a very small space and there is no way to access behind the tub. What can be checked or done from the tub? What steps need to be taken next, to try to determine the cause? We are trying to contact the neighbor next door to determine if they have had water problems in their bathroom on the other side of the wall from the tub.
My fear is the only way to fix the problem is to tear out the tile and cast iron tub... please advise...

Spoiler!That fight was insane! Sucks it was so early but man did they go at it. While all that was going on Julie was smiling his ass off. This revelation that Tsuna's dad killed Enma's parents and sister must be Julie doing. I figure it's his way of putting more fuel to the fire on the Vonogola vs Shimon.

whoa interesting chapter, did tsuna go into dying will mode on his own or did he take that pill. I doubt tsuna's father did that. Enma's just being manipulated(what a fool).
the one thing i really hate about this manga is tsuna's character after 300 plus chapters hes still saying the same thing
Last edited by dct21; 12-03-2010 at 04:02 AM.
something tells me Four eyes is behind everything and apart of some big secret gang that plans on taking down both mafia's at once to rule Italy.
hmm, i liked this chapter more than earlier ones..
One thing i hope is that tsuna wasnt just petrified by what enma said.. I hope he actually willingly dropped his powers and will take a beating to let enma see some sense to see his real self. Although, i guess tsuna's character just isnt like that.. He would more likely be a wimp and get stunned by those words. :-/ If that did really happen though, i see one of enmas guardians stopping him.. probably the chick..
I doubt his dad did that.
There is no way Iemitsu did that! And if he did, than Enmas dad probably told him to do it.
And wow, Enma has the Sharingan! v
Tsktsk.. somehow I'm not satisfied, but meh..

But I disagree with the comment about Tsuna. He's sticking to his convictions. It's what makes him capable of being the 1 to return the vongola to protecting the neighborhood instead of the mafia it stupidly became.
I'm satisfied with it. No one narrated the fight and they went into it heart and soul. It was short yet amazing. I don't think I've seen Tsuna fight with that much gusto before...
If the guy I'm fighting suddenly tells me that my Dad killed his entire family, I'd be shocked into dropping my powers too. Tsuna is very emotional and caring, so there's no way he can just be faking dropping his powers. This isn't Primo that died many years ago that Enma's accusing, it's Tsuna's own father that is right beside him in the present. The fight has moved from the purpose of redeeming the past to Enma exacting revenge for the present.
If I were Enma, I'd wanna kill him too...even if he wasn't the one to order the killing. For the record, I don't think Iemitsu did that; the perv is just twisting facts I'm sure.

The Host (episode)
this wiki
(written from a Production point of view)
A Trill ambassador is on-board to mediate a dispute, and falls in love with Dr. Crusher. When the Trill host is killed, the symbiont has to be temporarily joined to Commander Riker to continue the negotiations – and the affair.
- "Dr. Beverly Crusher, Personal log, stardate 44821.3. Began an analysis today of the respiratory problems being experienced on the Beta moon of Peliar Zel. Finally got an actual letter from Wesley, topped the class in exobiology, but he's still struggling in Ancient Philosophies and... there's someone new in my life."
The USS Enterprise-D is en route to Peliar Zel to mediate a critical dispute between the Alpha and Beta. A Trill ambassador, Odan, is aboard to mediate the negotiations. He and Dr. Crusher have initiated a romance and quickly fallen in love. However, they keep it to themselves and when Data nearly walks in on them when they are kissing in the turbolift, they become a little nervous. They later retreat to Odan's quarters and continue to kiss passionately, until Captain Picard summons the ambassador to the observation lounge.
The discord between the inhabitants of the two moons is revealed, which is that the Alpha moon has tapped into Peliar Zel's magnetic field, which gives them a rich power source, but in turn is causing severe global warming conditions on the Beta moon. The negotiations to resolve the conflict are to begin soon but Odan insists that he disembark to the planet only by the shuttle Hawking, rather than by transporter, even though he is made aware by Peliar Zel's Governor Leka Trion that many radical factions may try to block the negotiations by any means necessary.
In the meantime, Dr. Crusher is getting ready to meet Odan that night by treating herself at the spa on the ship. Counselor Troi goes in for some kind of treatment as well and sees her, remarking that it wasn't common to see her there. Troi also notes that Crusher must be in love since she's 'glowing.'
Odan goes to Picard in his ready room and thanks him for his help in the situation with Peliar Zel and to ask about "Dr. Beverly." Picard, taken aback a little bit, replies that he cannot presume to speak for her. There is a call saying that a shuttle is ready for Ambassador Odan. Odan gives Beverly a rose before he leaves for the moon. When the Hawking with Odan and Riker launches, it is attacked by an unknown ship from one of the moons, seriously injuring Odan. Riker barely gets back to the Enterprise in the shuttle in one piece.
When Odan is returned to the ship, Dr. Crusher and the medical staff learn that the Trill are a joined species, a symbiont and a host, and this was the reason why he did not want to be beamed to the surface – it would have killed the symbiont. Not even Dr. Crusher was aware what Odan really was. Odan's host body dies of the injuries, even though the symbiont being Odan is still alive. The Enterprise contacts the Trill and they say that they will send another host in 48 hours. However, as Dr. Crusher explains, the symbiont cannot survive long enough for the new host to arrive. Though no Human has ever hosted a Trill symbiont before, Riker volunteers to be a temporary host, both to save the Trill symbiont and continue with the mission to avert war.
On a personal level, Dr. Crusher feels confused and betrayed, since Odan still loves her, but the Odan Dr. Crusher loves now lives in Riker's body – a Riker she has known for many years as nothing but a good friend. She avoids his advances while he attempts to reconnect with her, even though the new Odan reiterates that even though his body has changed, he still loves her.
In a later conversation she has with Counselor Troi in Ten Forward, Dr. Crusher wonders what it was that she loved about Odan: his eyes, his hands, his mouth... but those things are all gone and if that is all there was, then she should mourn him and go on, but she knows that it was more than that for she felt completely free with him, unguarded, at ease with herself; there were so many things that made him special to her, and she wonders where they are; whether they are still here, alive in Will Riker. She simply has a hard time accepting him in this romantic capacity and asks Troi for advice. Deanna tells her about the first man she ever loved, her father, who was strong and tall and chased away the monsters from under her bed and sang to her and kept her safe. And he went away. What she wouldn't give to hear those songs again, and even though she never will, she still can feel his warmth and his love, as though he were there with her. So she tells Beverly that if she can feel those things from the man they know as Will Riker, she should accept that love and go to him.
Picard and Odan continue trying to get the people of Alpha and Beta moon to reconcile. Odan has to convince the representatives, Kalin Trose of Alpha Moon and Lathal Bine of Beta Moon, that he is in fact Odan and not the Enterprise's first officer. Picard is also concerned for his First Officer, Riker, saying that for a moment, Odan sounded just like Riker.
Dr. Crusher, still trying to figure out her feelings, goes to her quarters confused. Capt Picard asks Crusher to monitor Odan as he is feeling unwell. Odan tries to get through to her, but she rejects his advances. Beverly's feelings finally change when she sees the rose on a table in her quarters Odan gave her just before he left in the shuttle, and she re-unites with him in his quarters.
Despite increasing symptoms of rejection from Riker's body, Odan carries on, and manages to prevent an inter-planetary war by successfully mediating a settlement between the highly distrustful delegates from the two moons. Odan insists that he be removed from Riker regardless of whether the new host has arrived in time. Dr. Crusher removes the symbiont in time to save Riker, and the new host, Kareel, arrives just in time to accept the symbiont. This new host, however, is female, and so the love between Dr. Crusher and Odan comes to an insurmountable obstacle for Crusher. She confesses that she still loves Odan, but she is not accustomed to these kinds of changes. Maybe it is a Human failing, she states, but she simply "can't keep up" with them; she can't live with that kind of an uncertainty. She goes on to say that perhaps some day, Humankind's ability to love won't be so limited. Kareel Odan says that she understands and, kissing Crusher's hand one last time in the same way that she used to do, she affirms that she will never forget her.

Background information Edit
Story and script Edit
- The working title for the episode was "E Pluribus Unum", Latin for "out of many, one". (Star Trek: The Next Generation Companion - A Series Guide and Script Library)
- The original story focused on the war negotiations and contained no romantic component. Ronald D. Moore recalled, "The addition of Beverly to that story is the vital component. A lot of freelancers would take that premise and say this is a show about the ambassador and the struggles of the parasitic creature and the war negotiations. No one really cares about that. But when it becomes a Beverly problem, who's in the position with the problem, and to some extent Riker, that's how it became a Star Trek story." (Captains' Logs: The Unauthorized Complete Trek Voyages, p. 221)
- Brannon Braga added, "Being in love with someone is not very fresh. Having the parasite as the host is. It was not originally pitched as a love story, it was pitched as a squirmy worm who's really the intelligence. What's ironic is that the most repulsive story ever pitched to us ended up being the most touching love story and that's why this show is unique." (Captains' Logs: The Unauthorized Complete Trek Voyages, p. 221)
- First UK airdate: 23 November 1994
Production Edit
- "The Host" was filmed between Friday 8 March 1991 and Tuesday 19 March 1991 on Paramount Stage 8 and 9. Second unit and insert shots were filmed on Thursday 18 April 1991 on Paramount Stage 9.
- This episode was the first Star Trek episode directed by Marvin V. Rush. Rush, a director of photography on projects in and out of Star Trek, recalled that much effort went into shooting the episode so Gates McFadden's late-term pregnancy was always hidden. (Star Trek: The Next Generation Companion 2nd ed., p. 165) Jonathan Frakes noted, "The episode had to be shot in such a way that we couldn't see her stomach. They would not address the fact that the actress was pregnant. It was an interesting problem. You really found yourself more concerned with hiding her with furniture or with your body, and shooting from her boobs up. That was very restrictive." (Captains' Logs: The Unauthorized Complete Trek Voyages, p. 221)
Continuity Edit
- This episode shows the Enterprise-D barbershop also has a salon area.
- The graphic on Picard's monitor before he has his conversation with Odan is the Tyken's Rift from "Night Terrors".
- This is the only episode of TNG in which an officer on the bridge asks the computer what time it is.
- The symbiotic species known as the Trill make their first appearance in this episode. They were later featured in more detail in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, though aside from the existence of the symbiont, the Trill featured in this episode share no resemblance to those of Deep Space Nine (physically or otherwise).
- Curiously, Odan refuses to be transported in this episode, and Dr. Crusher affirms the notion that using a transporter would damage the Trill symbiont. This limitation is never touched upon again in any follow-up episode in Trek canon, as Jadzia, Ezri, and others use the transporter freely. See the Trill article for more information.
Reception Edit
- Rush disagreed with claims that Beverly's rejection of Odan in a female body was homophobic. He stated, "Most of the people that I have talked to thought the show worked pretty well and were entertained. Some commented that they were unhappy with the ending because it was left a question. There was, or could have been, a sort of homosexual aspect to it and we chose not to go that route with it.
"I felt that it was more about the nature of love, why we love and what prevents us from loving. To me the best analogy is if your beloved turned into a cockroach, could you love a cockroach? It's the same person, if the person is the personality and core within, but can you get past the outside? We as Humans are affected by the whole package, including the outside shell, and Gates in her last scene talks about maybe someday our ability to love won't be so limited. She says mankind may one day be able to deal with this, But I can't. To me that is about the nature of love and I think it's an interesting, worthy discussion. Rather than deal with the fact it was because of any homosexual bent per se, it's just that in our culture and our society people who are heterosexual who want the companionship of a male because they are female, wouldn't be able to deal with that opposite situation." (Captains' Logs: The Unauthorized Complete Trek Voyages, p. 221)
- Gates McFadden recalled "some people were outraged at any hint of homosexuality in this episode." ("Inside the Star Trek Archives - Cast Member Hides Pregnancy", TNG Season 4 DVD special feature)
- At an Austin, Texas convention in 2012, Gates McFadden stated that while she loved the episode she wished Crusher's first romantic episode would have been put off until after her pregnancy. [1]
- A mission report by John Sayers for this episode was published in The Official Star Trek: The Next Generation Magazine Vol. 17, pp. 38-41.

The Edmonton Oilers and the Salary Cap
Jonathan Willis
June 30 2009 01:29PM
If the Oilers make a big roster move in the coming days or weeks, it will involve a trade. The simple fact of the matter is that the Oilers don't have the cap space to acquire a marquee player without sending at least one big ticket out.
Thanks to the decision to employ the 5% inflator built into the CBA, the salary cap will not drop next year, but rather rise to 56.8 million. That represents a 100,000$ increase from this season. Next season, the outlook is bleaker; the cap figure is as of yet unknown but it is certain to decline, perhaps steeply.
For the Edmonton Oilers, this represents two problems. The first is that with multiple restricted free agents (Denis Grebeshkov, Ladislav Smid, Liam Reddox, Gilbert Brule) left to sign, no starting goaltender, and a desire to add a top line player, Steve Tambellini has only 10-million dollars or so to work with (source: nhlscap.com). This is, however, a small problem compared to what Tambellini will need to deal with next summer.
With the cap in decline, Tambellini will see several players reach restricted free agency – with the critical two being Sam Gagner and Andrew Cogliano. Should those two players progress over the next year, they will certainly command large raises and both could be targets for an offer sheet. Only Fernando Pisani's 2.5 million dollar contract comes off the books in that time. In other words, if Tambellini spends to the cap this summer, he is going to have no room to sign Ganger and Cogliano.
What is the solution? Despite suggestions from fans, I can't see Daryl Katz spending millions to send a player like Dustin Penner to the minors. Ditto for Shawn Horcoff, the sole veteran centre on the team and a vital player, regardless of whether he's worth his 5.5MM annual cap hit or not. Fernando Pisani isn't the problem either; his contract comes off the books after this season, at which point he can be re-signed for less money or allowed to depart. Let's take a look at the Oilers roster, ranked by position and annual cap hit, and see if there isn't a solution to the problem. I've bolded players of interest.
- Shawn Horcoff – 5.5MM – A vital player for this team; moving him creates more problems than it solves.
- Dustin Penner – 4.25 MM - He won't be waived, but if the Oilers can trade him and bring in a different LW I think they will.
- Ales Hemsky – 4.1MM – A bargain at this salary.
- Patrick O'Sullivan – 2.925 MM - O'Sullivan may be dealt, but he really isn't overpaid relative to his production.
- Fernando Pisani – 2.5MM – Since Pisani's contract comes off the books next season, moving him doesn't help the long-term picture.
- Ethan Moreau – 2.0MM – I'm generally critical of Moreau, but he brings necessary ingredients to this team and isn't overpaid by much.
- Robert Nilsson – 2.0MM - The Oilers gambled on Nilsson's potential, and haven't done well to this point. He would be a bargain if he could get back to scoring, but they may not be able to wait that long.
- Sam Ganger – 1.625MM – A key player for this franchise for at least the next five years.
- Andrew Cogliano – 1.133MM – The Oilers seem committed to keeping him; has goal-scoring potential.
- Marc Pouliot – 825K – Cheap and versatile.
- Zack Stortini – 700K – Not a problem salary-wise.
- J-F Jacques – 525K – Ideally priced; jury is still out on his NHL effectiveness.
- Lubomir Visnovsky – 5.6MM - High-priced defenseman is worth the money, possesses a NMC.
- Sheldon Souray – 5.4MM - High-priced defenseman is worth the money, possesses a NMC.
- Tom Gilbert – 4.0MM - Reasonably priced for his offensive contributions, Gilbert may still be moved because the Oilers probably need to take money off the back end.
- Steve Staios – 2.7MM - Overpaid relative to his actual contribution, Staios is an obvious candidate to be moved – if anyone will take him.
- Theo Peckham – 600K - Affordable, but as with Jacques the jury is still out on how effective he can be.
- Jeff Deslauriers – 625K – For all that the Oilers talk about their belief in JDD, I sometimes wonder if they aren't just thankful to have a cheap backup option.
Armchair GM: My Solution
Assuming that a big package for Heatley is out (ideally consisting of Penner plus either O'Sullivan or Gilbert), there are a few other things worth considering:
Get a cheap goaltender. Tambellini and Co. seem committed to getting someone in the 3MM range to tandem with Deslauriers. I'm a little leery of some of the options (please not Clemmensen) but this is one of the few areas where money can be saved – either with Roloson or someone like Craig Anderson coming in on a cheap contract.
Move Souray to California. Rumours persist that Sheldon Souray would like to be closer to his children. His market value has never been higher, and if that is indeed his desire than a team like Los Angeles would seem to be an ideal fit. If the Oilers could bring back a player like Frolov, so much the better.
Clear out the deadwood. Staios and Nilsson both have some things working for them as players, and there may very well be interest from different teams in one or both. If not, Nilsson's 2MM contract isn't quite as much money to burn in the minors. Both could be easily replaced with bargain-bin free agents.
If all else fails. Assuming that Souray doesn't want to be moved and Staios and Nilsson don't attract any interest at all, there are precious few options left. One or more of Gilbert, O'Sullivan, Grebeshkov or Penner would need to be moved – and moving any of those would likely involve taking on salary in return.
Scary stuff.
The question is, does Souray want to move?
All these rumours and no action is getting to me. Someone stop this emotional roller coaster!....Oh no....I just threw up in my mouth.
Informative article, a good read. Things like this make me a everyday visitor to this site.
Yeah, great article. Does that mean the Oil are keeping the same roster minus Betts. Wow.
Discouraging when the freaks down the highway may be about to announce the signing of another Edmonton born and raised star. Excuse me while I join Souby in emptying the vomit from my mouth.
June 30 2009, 02:19PM
@ Antony Ta: I've read several sources that say yes. Perhaps they're all just quoting one another and perpetuating the rumour, but if you think about it, it would make sense to Souray. Back with his family, out of the spotlight, beautiful climate, same job, same money; what's not to like?
I've come to teh sad conclusion that the only fate of an oiler fan is dispair.
If Bouwmeester signs outside of alberta it will have been a good off season for the oil.
June 30 2009, 02:22PM
Thank you Kevin Lowe!!
Good summary, Jonathan. Do you know where Pat Quinn's preferences go? I'm only assuming he's got a bit of a say in this...
There's no question Tambo has his work cut out for him! It seems that more than ever we need to offer players some intangibles to come play in the beating heart of hockey. I wonder if Katz is willing to offer an all expenses paid trip to his summer home in (wherever) via his private jet as some incentive? If Calgary ends up signing JBo and moves Phaneuf for Heatley...I may just bitch slap the next loudmouth flame fan I see!
Waive bye bye to Steady Steve.
June 30 2009, 02:26PM
Calgary isn't exactly out of the woods cap-wise either. I can't imagine them being able to land Bouwmeester and Heatley.

I said it before, but I'm sure in 10 years we'll look back on the Lowe regime post-lockout as easily the worst-managed period in franchise history.
@ humantorch: except of course for the wonderful summer of 05 and the great deadline of 06.
That first year was a beauty, not a single bad trade for the oil. since then there have been only a handfull of trades that have pointed the ship in the right direction.
@ humantorch:
with the benefit of 20/20 vision you can see how our team went from greats to goats
The rumours of Penner, Souray and Nils going with Heater, JJ and Wayne Simmonds coming back would be just fine by me. I'd like Betts coming our way too and MAP would have to look for another team...maybe a 3 rounder in return? Unfortunately it saves us only 653,000 and that's without Betts.
Sign Grebs and JJ for about 3.5 each, sign Smid for 1.5 and Rollie for 3 and were at 54mill with Brule, Struds, Potulny and Schremph to go...and then Betts? Tough...we need to move Staios I guess

Hmmm, i don't know. Sure he took some gambles, but imagine if Penner became a 35 goal scorer and actually used his big body to hit some people? What team doesn't have a few bad contracts? We all want the best players available and sometimes there is a price to pay to get them. Lowe took some gambles to try and lock up players at a cheaper rate before they reached their potential. Look at Hemsky... wonderful contract! Anyway, we'll see what happens down the stretch...
What the Oiler's management should do is write this season off and put themselves into a better position to manage the cap going forward. Sign a couple of cheap, older vets at forward on one year deals, deal or stash Nilsson in the minors and get Grebs, Smid, and Roli signed (Roli to a one year deal as offered, Grebs and Smid to reasonable deals) and somehow deal Penner and Souray over the upcoming season for some younger talent or picks, the team will be much better off in the long term. It may be a long season again but... short term pain for long term gain is what I say.
June 30 2009, 02:44PM
A few things that seem to always be missed when presenting the "doom and gloom" of the Oiler salary situation:
1. Most teams that can spend, have spent and are in the same situations. Alot of those that can but haven't will be blowing their wad 18 hours from now. Run down the list of haves in a week or two and you will see almost everyone is in the same situation
2. Ties into #1 a little but... We have more players signed then most teams. 18 guys for 50 million > 13 guys for 50 million
3. Most contracts were signed under the assumption of a consistantly rising cap. Their will obviously be blips in the map (but this was an abnormally large one). Over the short run a flat or dropping cap is likely, but over the long run a rising cap is all but guaranteed.
4. We like to punish mangement for not foreseeing what looks like the 2nd worst financial melt down in modern times
5. Our top 6 is VERY young, I'd bet they are in 5 youngest in the league, for the most part they should be improving simply with time. Most of the holes that do need filling are bit positions that aren't that expensive.
6. The potential dropping cap MAY be blown way out of proportion by those looking to drum up controversy (what is it? 90% of posts now start with "with the cap droppin)
A. The 09/10 revenue figures used to determine the 10/11 cap are just now begining to be earned, no one really has any idea what they will be
B. The economy is actually firming up nicely, credit markets are all but back to normal, economic data has flattened out and business is starting to go "back to normal". The average reccesion is about a year in length, the extreme are usually less then two. Thiers no set date as to when this started, but it appears to be a year+ already, we are very likely in the 7th inning of the reccesion.
C. I have yet to see which of the two primary parties (teams/players) benifit from a large reduction in the salary cap ceiling... how often do you see parties maintain a contract where both sides lose?
June 30 2009, 02:58PM
@ Ogden Brother: Well put!
If the Cap goes down next year don't the player's salaries also drop accordingly , is not that what the escrow fund is for? I thought if the cap drops 15% so do all the contracts as well.
I'm still amazed by the amount of blame that makes it's way to Kevin Lowe. I'm not even a Lowe supporter, but think we as fans might want to look in the mirror in respect to some of our contracts that we so easily bash him for. Did we sign the contracts? No. But did we help pressure them being written up? Perhaps...
Penner was a reaction to crying fans that the Oilers took no action improving their top six. Was it a mistake? Maybe, but we don't know as he could pot 30 goals and be that way for the next 3 years.
Nillson was a steal compared to the year he had that earned him that money. None of us would have thought he'd dip so badly.
Horcoff was an odd one, and an error, but was having a career year before he was injured and we use it far too often to judge Lowe's entire tenure as GM.
The Pronger trade which we are so quick to say we got hosed on, was ironically identical to the Pronger to Philli trade which so many people seem to think was a huge overpayment by the Flyers. I belive it was a huge overpayment, but feel Pronger had more value now than back then with only 1 yr left. Gives the team who has him cap options should things dive.
We can't attract players here. It's simple. We had a coaching staff the players stopped listening to and a style players were tired of and as fans we demanded a change every summer. Perhaps while we can't say Lowe was in the top 10 GM's, we can cut the guy a little break here. This is a tough place to be GM and Tambellini is starting to find that out.

Seconded. Good points all, OB.
@ Ogden Brother:
Of course it has been reported now that Gomez has been traded to Montreal for Chris Higgins.. there goes Heatley.
Almost guarantees that Sather now has the cap room to make that deal
I wont agree for a second that the fans have to hold some of the blame for the bad contracts lowe made. Every team wants to get better after a year of not reaching the playoffs. No body I know told lowe it was a great idea to go get Penner from the ducks. It seems only the biggest fan aka Katz can be blamed for the huge raise Horcoff got. But do not blame the everyday fans if anything we pay the bills so maybe we should see some blame for continuing to support such a mess the last 3 years.
At least we're not Montreal taking on Gomez they must be insane at a 7.3 million cap hit insane

@ Jorge: My point was that if you think that mess is directly Lowe's fault, we should stop for a second consider where this team is located and the circumstances under which each contract was signed.
Yes, I did admit that Horcoff was a mistake. I'm sure when you read what I wrote, you'll see that. However, it's well known we are not an ideal desination for a number of players in the NHL. Tons of travel, weather issues, an unbeliveable hockey market that while some players like Jay-Bo might like in doses, becomes a bit much for many players.
We see this with a number of teams, not just the Oilers, but our GM's are faced with issues that don't face a number of other teams, so I'd rather not just decide to blame Kevin Lowe for a situation other teams find themselves in as well.
As for Penner; when he was confirmed as an Oiler, there were in fact a ton of fans and Edmonton local sports personalities that thought it was a good move by the team. It may not have proved to be so yet, but that doesn't mean it won't.

Basically they are taking a Koivu clone and paying him more money, aren't they? I'm not saying that the Oilers will be great or anything next year, but Montreal is in for quite the season unless they get bigger.
June 30 2009, 03:25PM
@ Librarian Mike:
And they gave up Higgins who is pretty damn productive for a 1.7M cap hit. That's a head-scratcher
And the Habs gave up Ryan McDonaugh in the deal? WTF?
June 30 2009, 03:39PM
And now the Rangers have the cap space to take on Heatley :(
I wouldn't trade horcoff and penner for Gomez
June 30 2009, 03:42PM
So now that the Rags have trade Gomez for a decent 2nd/3rd line guy and a pretty good prospect, can we quit playing the "our contracts aren't movable" game?
Gomez had 58 points last year and is signed through 2014 at a 7.3 cap hit Montreal will need heatley or the sisters to make him look good
Eklund seems to be insinuating there's a 2nd part to this deal and Gomez won't be staying in MTL. We'll see. Was gonna say bye-bye to Sedins in Montreal... is it possible Van swaps rights to Sedins for Gomez? Or is it more possible that Eklund is a f*%#up (e4)?

If Horcoff and Penner play up to their potential and Hemsky plays like he has been playing for the last four years our first line is actually pretty good. A 25 Goal scorer 75 point dude (Horc), a 75 point playmaker capable of 25 goals (Hemmer) and a feisty Penner who pots 30.
Wouldn't that be great! :-) Yay. I am going to go read some more fantasy novels. ta ta

1. True, to some extent, with L.A and Toronto being obvious exceptions for the moment. 2. True. 3. Yes, but it doesn't make signing Gagner or Cogliano any easier. 4. Not so much. We like to punish management for offering contracts that were overpays at the time to loyal soldiers and callow youths. Besides, at the same time Lowe was shovelling out money to Moreau and Staios he was letting Smyth walk because he was worried about the cap. 5. Except for that 1st line LW hole. And the improvement of the youth is part of the problem; they don't have long-term contracts. 6. Maybe, but it isn't hard to imagine a pretty steep drop given the world economic situation. A. Except that we know they'll be bad. B. None of which helps the Oilers in 2010-11. C. The owners. Given that there are a few big budget teams who have allocated their sheckels wisely, and a whole ton of other teams (Anaheim, Atlanta, Buffalo, Carolina, Colorado, Columbus, Florida, Minnesota, Nashville, NY Islanders, Ottawa, Phoenix, St. Louis, and Tampa Bay) who will almost certainly want the cap to continue to decline, I see no reason why any of them will want to a) give their high-spending opponents a competitive advantage and b) raise salaries when they aren't making much money as it is by discarding the current CBA. Now that times are good in Edmonton, we seem to forget about the days in the none-too-distant past where we all wanted the salary cap.
Lowe doesn't need to be kicked around by the armchair GM's here in Edmonton...You show me just ONE manager in the NHL who hasn't made mistakes!!! K-LOWE worked his ass off for this organization even tho he was parachuted into the GM role with NO EXPERIENCE!! Give him a Pat on the back instead of a kick in the Ass.

@ Jimbob:
I don't think anybody questions Lowe's character or his effort during his time as General Manager.
Just his ability.
The emontion roller coaster just derailed for habs fans.

It is my understanding that another reason the Oil have difficulty attracting free agents is because the culture sucks (remember MacT saying that?). Could it be that Souray wants out because of the "meh" attitude by some of the other players. I've heard one such whisper. If culture is really the problem, it is my hope that Tambo recognizes who the cancers are and removes them. Every July 1, I get pumped about the idea of landing a big fish, but this year, maybe it won't be the best idea. However, I'm with Thorn, if Darryl signs J-Bo and gets Heatley, I too may have to practice my bitch slapping skills.
June 30 2009, 04:32PM
THe Oilers can sign a guy and then trade a contract before the start of the season, they are allowed to be over the cap by 10% in the summer, but the Oilers, like many teams are going to be in a cap crunch very soon.
And with the Gomez deal, the Rangers have put even more heat on the Senators to land Heatley. The Rangers were one of his top three choices, so they have that advantage as well. Murray really wants this deal done before midnight.

As many are aware, the first major round of subscription renewals from the original App.net launch happened a few weeks ago. We have been anxiously anticipating what our subscription renewal rate would be in order to do budgetary planning. Since we have not been sure what to expect the renewal rate to be, we mentally prepared ourselves for a wide variety of outcomes.
The good news is that the renewal rate was high enough for App.net to be profitable and self-sustaining on a forward basis. Operational and hosting costs are sufficiently covered by revenue for us to feel confident in the continued viability of the service. No one should notice any change in the way the App.net API/service operates. To repeat, App.net will continue to operate normally on an indefinite basis.
The bad news is that the renewal rate was not high enough for us to have sufficient budget for full-time employees. After carefully considering a few different options, we are making the difficult decision to no longer employ any salaried employees, including founders. Dalton and Bryan will continue to be responsible for the operation of App.net, but no longer as employees. Additionally, as part of our efforts to ensure App.net is generating positive cash flow, we are winding down the Developer Incentive Program. We will be reaching out to developers currently enrolled in the program with more information.
App.net will continue to employ contractors for help with support and operations. In addition to operational and support help, we will also be utilizing contract help for specific new development projects.
App.net was envisioned from the beginning as a service that could be sustainable, something intended to operate on a longer timescale than a typical online service. It is often the case that services that are important to people can get caught on the wrong side of a boom-and-bust cycle, which is something we explicitly wanted to avoid.
We will be open sourcing a larger and larger percentage of the App.net codebase. We would love to get community contributions and improvements. Today we are launching a new open source page at opensource.app.net. The first new piece of software we are open sourcing is our microblogging web application, Alpha. The source code to Alpha is available here.
The continued support and interest of the App.net community is vital the continued health and wellbeing of the platform. Depending on the revenue that App.net makes, we are open to increasing or decreasing the budget we can allocate towards additional development. If revenue rates start to tilt upward we would be excited to budget additional development resources. In any event, our intention is to have the App.net service continue to operate for as long as there are customers willing to support it.
We continue to believe in the usefulness of a sustainable social platform where users and developers are customers, and not the product being sold to advertisers. If this were a company without a clear business model, App.net would have disappeared long ago. The market conditions that were the driving force behind App.net's creation have not changed, if anything, there is more of a role for a social platform like it. We would like to thank the developer and member community for taking App.net from just an idea two years ago to a fully realized service today. Needless to say, it's been humbling for all of us on the App.net team to have the support of so many amazing people.
Dalton Caldwell and Bryan Berg, co-founders

Fashion Gone Rogue recently went on safari to produce an exclusive photo shoot, "It's Tropical," shot by Marco Trunz and modeled by Kira Mazura. Featuring denim overall shorts, and lots of jumpsuits which had us doing double takes (some of the outfits could easily pass as denim); we certainly fell for the feminine denim styling and now yearn for the that much-needed vacation! This piece definitely provided a big ol' dose of inspiration on how to accessorize our denim for a stylish summer excursion—be it in a romper, denim dress, jumpsuit or overalls.

A girl in a close by school district wore a rebel flag prom dress to her senior prom and was told to change or leave. She and her family are claiming that her first amendment right has been violated.
"It's really bad that in this country that we're supposed to be free, that someone cannot go up in red, white and blue and they're turned away from their senior year and their senior prom," said Sara Owens, Texanna's grandmother.
She wasnt banned from the prom or kicked out of the school, or punished in anyway. Only asked to change or leave.
Do you think the student should have been punished?

Time Warner is in talks to sell several magazines from its Time Inc. division to Meredith, a media company that specializes in home and women's publications, according to a person familiar with the discussions.
Most of Time Warner's titles, including People, InStyle, and Real Simple, are up for sale, says the source, who declined to be named because he wasn't authorized to speak publicly about the deal. In one scenario being discussed, the titles for sale may be combined in a newly formed company that could be sold to Meredith.
Time Warner plans to keep at least three titles -- Time, Sports Illustrated and Fortune. Financial terms haven't been disclosed.
Time Warner declined to comment. Fortune magazine first reported the company's plans.
Time Warner, whose business also includes cable TV networks, film studios and CNN, is looking to lessen its exposure to the declining magazine business, and may unload more titles in the future, says Reed Phillips, co-founder of DeSilva + Phillips, an investment bank specializing in the media industry. "If Time Warner is selling such a large portion of its (magazine business), there's even less of a reason to be in the business going forward," he says.
Revenue for Time Warner's publishing business, Time Inc., fell 7% to $3.4 billion last year because of a decline in advertising, newsstand sales and subscriptions.
In an earnings conference call last week, John Martin, Time Warner's chief financial officer, referred to "very challenging industry conditions" that have weighed on Time Inc.'s financial performance and forced the company to begin cutting 6% of its workforce.
In a note of optimism, he said the 4% drop in ad revenue for the fourth quarter marked the smallest decline for the year.
Des Moines-based Meredith publishes Better Homes and Gardens, Family Circle, Ladies' Home Journal, Every Day with Rachael Ray and FamilyFun.
A deal with Time Inc., if completed, is an opportunity for Meredith to pick up well-branded national titles that demographically match its other publications. "My guess is Meredith didn't see much value" in Time, Sports Illustrated and Fortune, Phillips says.
People magazine, in particular, still gets about $100 per subscriber per year, the source says. For the second half of 2012, People's paid and verified circulation rose 1.9% to 3.64 million, according to the Alliance for Audited Media.
"The ones that are being bought are some of the premier magazine titles in the world. If you're going to buy, these are the some of the best brands to buy," Phillips says.
Time Warner isn't the only media conglomerate looking to trim its exposure to print products. News Corp. has announced plans to split its publishing business from its TV and film divisions this year.

Skip to comments.Philly owes $877,000 for Boy Scouts' eviction case
Posted on 03/21/2012 9:43:32 PM PDT by SmithL
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- The city must pay nearly $900,000 after a failed effort to evict the Boy Scouts of America because of the group's ban on gays, a federal judge ruled Wednesday.
The post-trial ruling is just the latest twist in a decade-long legal dispute over the Boy Scout oath, which requires members to be "morally straight."
The two sides have sought a compromise that would let the local Boy Scouts chapter keep its rent-free, city-owned headquarters without violating the national Scout policy.
However, a tentative deal struck since the city lost a court case last year has fallen apart. U.S. District Judge Ronald Buckwalter therefore said the city must pay $877,000 for the Scouts' legal fees.
(Excerpt) Read more at hosted.ap.org ...
Scouting Ping and a great one!
The Boy Scouts win!
The 1st Amendment wins in Philadelphia!
ALL RIGHT!! Turn back the tide of the radical homos. Just think of all the good that the Scouts can do with almost a million bucks!
If you lived in Philly, you'd know that no one wins.
Some gay guy on council if I am not mistaken was behind this...
The scouts raised the money and built the building and then gave it to the city ages ago, and used it for meetings.. some activist little BLEEP decided to hell with them.
Should be paying the scouts way more than this!
Dumb petty pathetic little people

Good. F abusive government on every level. It should come out of the govt workers' pensions.
Wouldn't surprise me if the council member wanted it for a sex dungeon.
And the money could've done the scouts some good but isn't it going to their lawyer fees?
Yep, left wing a**hats trying to suppress the 1st amendment rights of everyone except other left wing a**hats.
Philly taxpayers on the hook for $900,000, plus legal expenses, for pimping the gay agenda.
And NO ONE will show up at the council meeting to complain about this complete wasting of taxpayer dollars by radical Democrats. Wouldn't want to be known as a BIGOT after all, would we?
And you wonder what's wrong in America, today?
Huzzah! Three cheers for Judge Ronald Buckwalter!
Pingout tomorrow!
I'm tellin ya, folks of moral conviction need to be migrating to likeminded states so a separation can occur, let the left rot in their dens of iniquity and falling apart cities.
shall bump during RUSH. :D
One in awhile I like lawyers.
Where is that graphic from?
The sword is labeled bigotry and discrimination.
It seems the artist/author is trying to say that the boy scouts (and Christians) are using bigotry and discrimination as a weapon.
This piece of political propaganda is not meant to be flattering to the scouts or Christians.
Its saying that "Boy Scouts and Christians are discriminatory bigots".
I noticed that after I posted it. Was just something I pulled off of photobucket.
A deals a deal. In 1921 who could have envisioned that Boy Scouts could be considered a bigoted, "hate group"?
Great news. Screw Philthadelphia.
The Democrats running the place tried to intimidate and browbeat and extort the Boy Scouts into signing up homos to take little boys off into the woods, and the Boy Scouts, figuring this was not a good idea, told the Philthadelphia Democrats to go play in the street. And now Philthadelphia must pay, big.
It's always nice to see a sunbeam of sanity in today's America.
So bend over, taxpaying Philthadelphia voters, and pay up - - you are getting exactly what you deserve.
wonderful news. and the scouts gave the building to the city. i guess no scout's good deed goes unpunished by liberals.
In 2003, it enacted its own nondiscrimination policy but was forced to repeal it when the Boy Scouts of America ordered it to conform to national rules. The chapter later enacted a statement that says it doesn't tolerate illegal discrimination.
But it does tolerate illegal discrimination against the Boy Scouts of America 1st Admendment to the tune of $800,000.00. Ouch!
Somehow, I don't think I'd handle a sword exactly that way.
A deals a deal. In 1921 who could have envisioned that Boy Scouts could be considered a bigoted, "hate group"?
In 1921 the KKK was mainstream...
The money goes to lawyers
Bwahahahahahahaha! Asshat homo loser city.
Those were the minuses.
On the other hand, at the Southern Region Banquet, I sat back-to-back with a Scoutmaster from Tennessee who had just completed 75 years as Scoutmaster with the same Troop. My table included the curator of the Norman Rockwell works at the BSA National Museum, and the Eagle Scout about to go to the South Pole as part of the bi-annual London Geographic Society program that always takes an Eagle Scout. One of the speakers was the Eagle Scout helicopter pilot shot down in Iraq and kept as a POW, whose badly beaten face had been on the cover of TIME or Newsweek. One of the Scouts awarded a heroism medal had been on a houseboat that exploded, and despite shattered legs and a broken arm, swam to shore and back several times, dragging unconscious people from the burning wreck (fuel had leaked on the water).
Scouting will survive. It's not a program; it's a movement. A world-wide movement.
That is indeed the least bloody option, but if we can't whip up a respectable third party, I don't think we can find it in ourselves to secede.
I had the same question.
TinEye pointed it out.
They don't HAVE to pay it. Who is going to complain if they don't? The media?
The secession will happen when "good" people start to be literally attacked in public and forced to flee these cities
to safer areas. The warning is up...flee these harlots of Babylon!
Buckwalter is as corrupt as they come. I'm very surpised by this ruling, but I suppose the law must be clear and there was no way around it without further exposing his sympathies.
Haven't followed the case closely, other than when it started way back, the sheer audacity an organization builds you a building and donates it to the city and all it asks for is to be allowed the use the space,and some petty worthless [BLEEP] who cant figure out how genders are designed to work together for procreation decides to run them out.
Abjectly shameful. Far as I'm concerned the Scouts should take the building back in its entirety.
better yet, force them to secede... Move them to the big cities, cordon them off and leave them to the rats, bacteria and sewer people.
Well, phooey. Here I thought we had a judge that "gets it", and it turns it's probably a case of "no other choice" in the ruling. Dangit.
Still, I'm happy for the BSA.
I figured they get might half of it, then I thought "maybe some kind lawyer did the work pro bono" to help the scouts out.
Then I fell on the floor laughing and finally got a grip.
White flight? That's old already. They move, then they die out. Their kids, meanwhile, are back in the cities, trying to optimize their careers, and unaware of what has been lost. They don't remember when America was America, as their parents knew it.
I'm not talking about white flight....I'm talking about righteous flight consisting of races of all types and economic backgrounds. We need to flee as Lot fled(and even he needed a push and protection by the angels to get out of town).
We get the hint GOP and Dems and all you shadowy agencies that wish to enslave the minds of men! You don't like Christians and spiritual Light! The time is coming that if men will no longer endure the light of righteousness then in darkness they shall dwell...and that,with no remedy!
PS: You guy's in the NSA...you can quote me!
Sorry bout that, meant to say "right flight" but was in a hurry between running here and running there...and skipped a few revolutions to the comparison I intended to make to "white flight," which DID happen in many areas. Like white flight, right flight will not result in meaningful improvement. Where the righteous go, they will not build, they will merely survive for a time and then be harvested by the Lord.
Unless you know of some far-thinking, organized nation-building types who are young, strong and determined?

|In response to Re: 60" Remodeler Shower Needed
: : : : : We just bought a house 3 months ago and came to find out that 2 of the 3 AquaGlass tub/showers had cracks in the bottom and were spongy in the bottom. After going back and forth with the manufacturer for 3 months they are willing to pay a portion of the repair cost. What I want to do is have 1 repaired and replace the other with a shower that has a seat in it to accommodate my wife's arthritis. Problem is, I haven't found a 60" remodeler shower. All I can find are 1 piece units. Does anyone have any idea where I can get such an animal? Thanks.
: : : : I just received a nice remodeler from Swan Corp. This unit is the same size as a bathtub 32X60.
: : Hey, thanks!!! I did find out last night that Kohler has a 60" remodeler but I bet it can't be had for $ 280. I'll check it out next time I go to Home Depot. By the way, did it have a seat?
: I found a few on line here'e some that might meet your needs
Hey, Chuck, I really appreciate your help. I'll check out the sites you listed later this week.

text: Can someone explain this to me. I saw at the conclusion of the fight between Orochimaru and Sarutobi that Enma took the Kusunagi sword with him after removing it from Sarutobi. Then I saw during the fight between Oro and Naruto four tails he again used this sword. Then Sasuke used the same sword during the fight with naruto and sakura. Can someone explain, was this ever mentioned. Perhaps Oro summons it from where ever it is, however it seems he more less removes it from his body. Anyone know the answer.

SLU Researcher Examines Treatment Options for Youth with Type 2 Diabetes
Study Published in New England Journal of Medicine Finds Combination Therapy is Best
A multi-center, NIH-funded study published in the New England Journal of Medicine on April 29, 2012 found that a combination of two diabetes drugs, metformin and rosiglitazone, was more effective than metformin alone in treating adolescents with type 2 diabetes.
|Sherida Tollefsen, M.D., is pictured with research team members Theresa Whelan, Bonnie Wolff, and Silvia Carnes. Not pictured is co-investigator David Dempsher, M.D.
The TODAY (Treatment Options for type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth) study at Saint Louis University was led by Sherida Tollefsen, M.D., professor of pediatrics and director of the division of pediatric endocrinology at Cardinal Glennon Children's Medical Center.
"The recent rise in childhood obesity has been accompanied by an increased incidence of pediatric type 2 diabetes," Tollefsen said. "The TODAY study is the first major treatment efficacy trial in adolescents with recent-onset type 2 diabetes."
The study enrolled 699 youth aged 10-17 who had type 2 diabetes for less than two years. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three treatments: metformin alone, metformin and rosiglitazone, or metformin combined with a lifestyle-intervention program focusing on weight loss through changing eating and activity behaviors. Of the three treatments, metformin combined with rosiglitazone was most effective.
"These results are significant because they suggest that the failure rate with metformin alone is higher than that in adults," Tollefsen said. "Most youth with type 2 diabetes will require multiple oral agents or insulin therapy within a few years after diagnosis to achieve the control needed to prevent complications."

Classic and understated
"I was looking for a pair of black leather boots to replace the Franco Sarto pair that I bought several years ago from DSW, but I didn't want to spend a lot of money. These boots are classy, affordable, and relatively comfortable. After dancing all night in them, my feet were a little achy but I definitely wasn't limping. The fit is a bit snug for my muscular calves, but with a little bit of effort I am able to zip them up. I would definitely recommend these boots to someone looking for a classy, simple, understated black leather boot. And the price was also affordable! Impo really makes great boots."
