The Emery High Lady Spartans ended the first half of region 12 play last Tuesday with an 8-0 victory over the Richfield Wildcats. Emery went 3-2 in that half. Emery then started the second half of region play at Manti and lost 10-0 as they were without starting pitcher Andi Smith.
On Tuesday, Smith pitched almost a perfect game in what may be her last pitching outing of the season. A lone single in the top of the seventh inning prevented the perfect game.
Smith struck out two of the three batters in the first inning, all three batters the second and third innings, two of the three in the fourth inning, one of the three in the fifth inning, all three in the sixth inning and one of four in the final inning. Smith finished the game with 15 strikeouts. The other outs were soft groundballs plus one pop-up to the first baseman. This was Smith's second straight one-hitter. Smith may now be done for the season with an elbow injury.
Offensively against Richfield, Emery had 10 base hits in scoring those eight runs. In the first inning, Makia Sherman singled to start the game and would score on a ground ball from Mackenzie Grange. Markette Tanner also had a single in the first inning. Emery added another run in the second inning. Whitney Roper singled as the lead off batter and scored on a ground ball off the bat of Sherman. Danavin Reed also singled in the inning. In the third inning, Emery added three more runs to go up 5-0. Gabby Guymon got on due an error by the Richfield shortstop, Grange doubled and then Roper doubled to knock in two runs. Shelby Mason then also doubled to knock in Roper.
In the fourth inning, Emery added another run. Guymon singled and scored on a triple off the bat of Michelle Oliver that went to right center field. Emery's last two runs came in the bottom of the fifth inning. Reed walked to open the inning and then Abbie Kay walked. Sherman hit a ball to right field for a single but the ball was misplayed and both runners scored. On Friday, Emery traveled to Manti to play last season's 2-A state champions. Manti scored two runs in the first inning on two base hits, five runs in the second inning on five base hits, two more runs in the fourth inning on three base hits and another run in the fifth inning on three base hits. Manti finished the game with 14 base hits. Manti had a double, three triples and a homerun among those hits.
Emery was stymied most of the game when it came to batting. Mason and Jennings each had a single and a double in the game but could not get a runner home. Sherman and Tanner each had a single for the only Emery hits of the day.
In the first inning, Sherman and Tanner opened the game with back-to-back singles but a soft grounder and two strikeouts closed out the inning. In the second inning, Mason doubled and after a strikeout, Jennings singled but a fly out to short left and a strikeout ended the threat. In the fourth inning, Mason singled and Jennings doubled but a strikeout also ended that inning.
Emery plays three games this week. On Tuesday, Emery hosts Juab, on Wednesday, Emery plays a non-region game against North Sevier and on Friday, Emery will host North Sanpete.

Good news, big game hunters: you have a few extra days to submit your application for a 2010 Utah big game permit.
The application period was supposed to end at 11 p.m. on March 1. But the portion of the Division of Wildlife Resource's Web site (wildlife.utah.gov), where people apply for permits, experienced technical difficulties the last two days of the period. The site's speed slowed to a crawl. At times, hunters couldn't even access the site.
These challenges made it difficult for hunters to get their application in before 11 p.m. on March 1.
For that reason, the DWR will accept applications for an extra week. You now have until 11 p.m. on March 8 to submit your application.
For more information, call the Utah Wildlife Administrative Services office at 1-800-221-0659, the nearest Division of Wildlife Resources office or the DWR's Salt Lake City office at (801) 538-4700.

10 Fall 2014 Coats We Need Now
At the risk of sounding like a fashion cliché, it must be said, baby blue is the new pink. Or so claims the runways of Wes Gordon, on a standout jacket with a fur collar, Derek Lam, who showed the hue on everything from shifts to coats, and Delpozo, who mixed the dreamy shade with standout colors like orange and lime green. In the interest of keeping the pastel trend alive and well, we're all in.
It feels a little Kurt Cobain, a little snuggly and suddenly very chic again—the over-sized cardi is making a comeback, creating a lush, sophisticated air at Michael Kors, lending a collegiate vibe at J. Crew collection, and toning down an evening look for day at Wes Gordon.

Youth Hunter Registry Program / Youth Hunters of the Year
The Louisiana Outdoor Writers Association (LOWA) and the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) Deer Program are encouraging youth hunters 15 years of age or younger to participate in the Youth Hunter Registry.
Youth hunters can also enter the Youth Hunter of the Year contest. The contest requires youth hunters to submit a story about their hunting experience along with photographs of the hunt. LOWA and LDWF will then select a male and female youth hunter of the year based upon the stories and photos that are received.
LOWA Youth Journalism Contest
The Louisiana Outdoor Writers Association holds an annual Youth Journalism Contest.
Open to all youths, 18 and under, the contest is designed to stimulate an interest in outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing, boating, camping, hiking, and most outdoor activities--and the ability to communicate this interest to the public.
This highly-popular contest attracts entrants from all over Louisiana and neighboring states, and is lauded by educators statewide as an effective youth literacy project.
The contest has three categories consisting of Senior Essay (14-18 YOA), Junior Essay (13 YOA and under), and Photography (18 YOA and under) and features cash prizes donated by the Louisiana Chapter of Safari Club International.
Awards are given in 1st through 4th place in each category, and the winning students will be recognized by LOWA at the annual conference banquet which is usually held yearly in August. Additionally, the winning entries will be published on the LOWA and LDWF websites, as well as in publications and on websites across the state.
Entries accepted from the beginning of each fall hunting season through May.

|In response to Re: CEPTIC TANK
Unless you live in an area that does not have inspections, you will not be able to "build" your own tank. You will be required to purchase an approved concrete or fiberglass tank, and install the discharge method according to the plans that were submitted for the permit. These plans/drawings are based on tests made on the property to determine the porosity of the soil and therefore the design of the leach field or cesspool. It is not something you do because you think it is an easy task.
: can you help with instructions on how to build and construct a ceptic tank. what is the angle from the soil pipe to the tank and what should the drop be. thank you for you help. peter.

When you open a photo with a new document already open, this is how your screen will appear.
2a. This simply splits your 2 documents into 2 equally sized windows and allows you to see both of them side by side. Then you would just click, hold, and drag your photo over onto your new document.
3a. To go back to a full screen of your new document, you can either click on the Arrange Documents icon again and choose Consolidate All (which gives you full screen with your workspace showing and the documents arranged in tabs). This will keep your photo open, but out of your way. Or, if you know you're done with your photo, you can click the "x" on the photo tab to close it out.
NOTE: Instead of clicking on the Arrange Documents icon again, you can also right-click on one of the tabs and choose Consolidate All to Here (or your preferred command.)
2b. This pulls it out if the Consolidated Documents and places it in a "floating" position over your new document. Your new document remains "docked" behind this floating window, which means it will remain there. A "docked" document can't be pulled in front of a floating window without floating both documents.
3b. Now you would simply click, hold, and drag your photo over to your new document.
4b. To keep you photo open in case you need it later, you can simply minimize it. Or if you're done with your photo, you can just click the "x" to close it out.
There are several other ways to view and arrange your documents. Now that you know how to get to them, you can play around with each view and see which one you like best. :)
I'll be back with more tips as I learn them. :)

The OED works closely with the Economic Development Council, Community Foundation, Chamber of Commerce, Green River Chamber of Commerce, Travel Bureau, Department of Workforce Services, Resource Conservation and Development, Living Utah, Small Business Administration, Association of Governments and the Green River Economic Action Team. "As with any objective, the more people involved the better are your chances of achieving that objective," said Eldred. "Our community based organizations bring great ideas and concepts to the table with regards to business retention, recruitment and tourism. I see them as a great asset to economic development and the county as a whole."
County and civic leaders recognize the importance of working to improve the economic well-being and quality of life of a community by actively seeking to create and retain jobs that facilitate growth and provide a stable tax base. The past few years have been hard on the county budget as the current economic base has shrunk considerably due to mine closures, reduced mineral resource funds, out-migration from the county and aging of important tax revenue generating infrastructure. To counter this trend the county is organizing an effort to support and encourage local industries as they look to market their products across the nation and around the globe. As part of this effort the OED is working closely with the Emery County Chamber of Commerce to develop a business directory highlighting the products and services Emery County businesses can provide.
The most important objective of the OED is to cultivate growth from within the county. Economic gardening is a term heard frequently that describes the objective of cultivating entrepreneurial efforts locally. Economic gardening looks at established businesses within the community and helps them connect with local and state government resources in order to help them grow. A great example of this is the State sponsored smart sites that economic development has helped establish with local partners within the community. Emery Telcom recently received an award from the State Office of Economic Development for the success of their call center located in Orangeville. There are a number of other companies in the county working on cutting edge ideas for niche markets around the globe.
One way to assist local businesses is through the Revolving Loan Funds (RLF) managed by the Economic Development Council and the Southeasthern Utah Association of Local Governments. These loan funds are made available to new and existing businesses in order to provide gap financing, working capital and fixed assets financing for business creation and growth that cannot be fully funded through the traditional system. The object of the revolving loan funds is to encourage growth and stimulate private investment in Emery County. In 2003, 13 Emery County businesses requested funding from the Economic Development Council and seven were awarded loans totaling over $179,000 through the RLF program.
Another important piece of the puzzle in economic development is recruitment of progressively minded small to medium size businesses to Emery County. "We recognize the importance of diversifying the economic base in Emery County," said Marc Stilson, Chair of the Emery County Economic Development Council (EDC). "It will take a concerted and determined effort over a number of years to increase the number of small to mid-size companies producing goods and services over a wide range of economic disciplines." The OED in conjunction with EDC is working on a recruitment strategy to target specific businesses that would fit in a rural setting and that produce goods and services not currently being supplied by businesses in Emery County. The idea is to expand employment opportunities without competing with established business interests. These types of companies create sustainable employment. They bring in raw product and create finished products that are sold outside the area bringing profits back to Emery County. The county has already began direct recruitment efforts. A recruitment trip to California in 2003 highlighted the Emery County area to a light manufacturing firm that would be a good fit for Emery County. The company uses large amounts of power in their production process and would have the advantage if they located in Emery County of being linked directly to one of the power plants such that they would have a consistent source of energy and avoid costly brown-outs. Additional benefits such as the low cost of workers compensation insurance in Utah also were identified in the recruitment presentation.
Another recruitment initiative being pursued by the county in cooperation with EDC is a recruitment program targeted towards former residents of Emery County who may be in a position to come back to the county to pursue "New Economy" type business ventures. The information highway that is now available to Emery County offers an extremely inexpensive way to provide services and professional expertise to clients across the nation and world. With the improvements in technology and communication, many different types of industries can provide services from anywhere in the country. Their businesses do not necessitate being tied down to an urban area. The EDC is interested in finding interested individuals who may be owners, CEO's, or simply employees of such companies and inviting them to consider relocating to Emery County.
Currently, one of the hottest trends across the country is being able to live and work in a place that you have chosen because of the way of life rather than because your company requires you to. Additionally, many companies are realizing that 'way of life' benefits such as a rural setting, reduced traffic congestion, clean air and ample outdoor recreational opportunities play an increasingly important part in recruiting top quality employees. Many senior residents of Emery County would also like to see opportunities open up for their sons and daughters (and most especially - grandchildren) to come back to Emery County. "We still have solid, hard-working and high standard communities in which to raise a family, no traffic congestion, wonderful recreational opportunities, plenty of open spaces, very little crime and most of all, the country lifestyle," stated Stilson. "Hopefully our urban neighbors around the West will recognize these qualities and desire to participate in the opportunities that are being created."
With those ideas in mind, the OED is preparing a recruitment package that highlights Emery County. The greatest asset Emery County has to offer is Lifestyle. Wide opens spaces and the relaxed rhythm of small town life is the one quality of life asset that cities along the Wasatch Front cannot offer. There are many people living along the Wasatch Front that desire a quality rural lifestyle but are unable to achieve it because of the lack of opportunity in the rural areas. "We are currently working on initiatives that promote and enhance our community's human, natural and cultural assets. It is our objective to entice individuals and businesses that desire a rural lifestyle to locate in Emery County so that they may enjoy the quality of life Emery County has to offer," stated Eldred. "It is important that throughout this effort we focus on quality growth such that we do not destroy the very reasons we like living here."
One such effort currently underway to improve the cultural assets of our community is the formation of the Emery County Arts Council. This initiative is being organized with the help of the Emery County Economic Development Council. It is being spearheaded by Karen Truman who is also the President of the Emery County Community Theater. The hope is that by coordinating the efforts of our local arts and culture organizations that more and better programs can be offered to county residents. Top on the list of things to accomplish for the Arts Council is construction of a community theater, smaller and more intimate in size and scope than the currently utilized high school auditorium.
Two more initiatives that economic development is working on are the organization of an economic summit for Emery County business in September 2004 and the publication of a monthly economic development newsletter that will connect and inform all of the different organizations working on economic development.
For further information on economic development or if you would like to volunteer to work with any of the community based organization, call Marlin Eldred at 381-5576 or 749-1254.

more to come... my connection is slow today
more to come... my connection is slow today
Thanks Toni. That photo of the groom's parents was sooo funny!
Just curious Toni, what camera do you use to photograph?
I like photography too, but it's just a little hobby of mine, nothing serious.
Up until about Feb. I used my Canon AE-1 or my dad's Canon A-1Originally Posted by Red Dog
Now I have a Canon Rebel XST, which if and when I get a Rebel EOS the lenses will be interchangable.
Right now I can't afford a good digital camera (it's either go to nationals in 06 or get the camera... tough choice but I chose the trip to nationals)
still hoping Santa will feel generous and get me a camera this Christmas... but the PFD Elf got me the Rebel XST in October.... and my g'pa got me my awesome lens in February lol so Santa may not think I need a Digital right now
Yeah, those are nice.
I have a Canon Powershot G1 from 2000, and I plan to upgrade now (still waiting for them to ship it) to the new Nikon D70s digital SLR camera. It's really nice.
I love my Rebel EOS, but I want to get the digital SLR version. It was Nationals or the camera so I'll just have to wait on the camera a little longer.
Great pictures Toni!
The Rebel XT is a pretty nice camera. The only problem I had with it is it was too SMALL- I have big hands and the grip was way too small. I was actually feeling cramped whenever I was holding it. But other than that it's a very nice camera. If you have small hands it's ideal. The Nikon just felt a lot more rugged and firm in my hands (it felt more like a quality SLR IMO). I was also considering the difference between 6 and 8 MP, but it's really not that much, considering there are photos on the web where you can compare them side by side. The lens that comes with the Nikon is also loads better than the Canon one, IMO.Originally Posted by mpal2
The first couple you did the wedding photos of look like they are doing great and really happy in their pic!
Wonderful shots as always, Toni!
I have a Canon Powershot A20 right now and it's a great general use camera and served the purpose of me learning digital really well. I was so intimidated by the idea of "going digital"...somehow thought it'd be so different than regular camera and that I'd have trouble with software, etc. But I had no trouble at all. The zoom leaves much to be desired, tho.
I was flipping channels one night and caught some cameras on one of the home shopping network channels. They were showing one camera that had a reset button of some sort so you wouldn't have to wait for that delay the digitals have between taking pictures...they described the delay as the time it takes for the camera to download the picture into it's memory. The reset button supposedly allows you to shoot immediately after pushing it.
When I'm ready to get a new camera, I'm going to go to a reliable camera shop and describe what I use my camera for and see what they recommend....then research it on-line...then shop around for the best price. My husband gets a Sears gift card every quarter from his job, it's an incentive for having a safe, accident free work record. Each quarter the gift card is a higher denomination...then he gets one at Christmas time. We're hoping Sears will carry the kind of camera I want to get, that way we can apply the gift cards to the purchase price!
So you were shooting with a Digital in Portland, mpal2? or am I bonkers? LOL (don't answer that truthfully or I may have to hurt you )
Patch - thanks! Tesa and Steve (the couple from my first wedding) are doing extremely well. They just had a little boy a few months back and even though he's had his share of medical problems (his skull was already fused together leaving no room for growth) they are just the happiest family. Her step-sister is the bride from this wedding. They've been at every wedding save for one since I started shooting weddings it's a little freaky, but they are so much fun. I love Steve. He's too much fun. I've known Tesa for close to 14 years now so they make me feel like I'm part of the family.
I had to shoot with a Nikon Digital SLR for the Iditarod and I hated it... I so much prefer Canon. I think it's just because I grew up on it. I dunno.
I don't have "big" hands... but I have long fingers, but I don't have much of a problem... I found I had more of a problem with the bulky Nikon.
Canon's are prettier
NJ- If you can afford it, I would seriously consider the entry-level SLR market. If you want a fast, responsive camera that you never have to wait on, that is your best bet. Otherwise, there are some pretty cool P and S cameras out there that are fairly quick. Much quicker than my G1, I know- I have to wait 6 seconds for the thing to start up, and once it does autofocus takes anywhere from 1 to 10 seconds, depending on lighting.Originally Posted by NJSk8Fan

Toni- It's a matter of taste. Believe me, the Canon vs. Nikon debate gets pretty intense at times. I intend to use both brands. (I find that for SLRs, Nikon tends to be more "mainstream" with their lenses and it's much more likely that I'll be able to use current lenses with new models that come out in the future, whereas Canon is more "spontaneous".) Canon's Powershot line is very good- I might consider getting a small "pocket" camera from them and then Nikon for the upper end.
Thanks for the tips Red Dog. I'm ok with the size of the camera. I've been price shopping and just had to hold it for a tryout.
I may go to hell for lying, but for you I'll do anything. You are not bonkers but I was using a film camera at Nationals. Anna and Heather used the digitals. I definitely want to upgrade soon.Originally Posted by Tonichelle
And yes Canons are prettier. They're picture perfect.
That was my experience. The Canon may very well be the better one for you.Thanks for the tips Red Dog. I'm ok with the size of the camera. I've been price shopping and just had to hold it for a tryout.
As for looks- Canons have that "sexier" look, while Nikon sticks to a more "professional" design. Between you and me, I prefer the latter.
Of course, I went by features, picture quality, feel, etc. Just because a camera LOOKS nice doesn't mean it IS nice.

When his good friend and patron, Bishop Fisher of Salisbury died in 1825, Constable decided to paint an elegiac work in his memory. He chose to depict the church of St Mary the Virgin at Langham, where Fisher had been rector when Constable met him in 1798. Constable compressed a view of the church with the image of a nearby farmhouse. The picture he called 'The Glebe Farm'.
Constable depicted the view along a valley with water in the foreground, where a cow is drinking, tall trees to the left and the farmhouse beside the church tower on a hill to the right. He based the farmhouse on a small oil sketch from nature he had made around 1811–15, Church Farm, Langham (Victoria and Albert Museum, London). The sketch does not include Langham Church. Although it has been suggested that the church would have been out of sight behind the farmhouse when viewed from this angle, Anne Lyles has recently shown the author that this is not the case.The image of Glebe Farm was a favourite with Constable, and he painted four versions between 1826 and 1830 (the first version now held by the Detroit Institute of the Arts, and the other three held by the Tate, London).
Constable wrote to the Bishop's nephew, John Fisher, on 9 September 1829 about his first version of The Glebe Farm 1826–27: 'My last landscape [is] a cottage scene – with the Church of Langham – the poor bishops first living … It is one of my best – very rich in colour – & fresh and bright – and I have "pacified it" – so that it gains much by that tone & solemnity' (Beckett VI, pp. 223–24).
This second version of The Glebe Farm once belonged to Constable's friend and biographer, C.R. Leslie. Leslie told Constable that he liked it so much he did not think it needed another touch, and Constable gave it to him in early 1830 with the foliage, tree trunks and other details 'unfinished'. Constable had painted in the pitcher beside the pool, but not the country girl who would have been there to fill it and who appears in the third version (Tate, London). The tall thin tree in the foreground is not present in other versions of the subject.
On 8 December 1836 Constable wrote to Leslie: 'This is one of the pictures on which I rest my little pretensions to futurity' (Beckett III, p. 144).

Financial Reporting Framework for Small- and Medium-Sized Entities with Implementation Resources
Privately owned, small- and medium-sized entities are looking for a relevant, simplified and cost-beneficial framework for their financial reporting needs. Bankers and other financial statement users also need easier-to-understand, useful financial statements that are based on a reliable, principles-based framework.
The AICPA's Financial Reporting Framework for Small- and Medium-Sized Entities (FRF for SMEs) is specifically designed to fulfill those financial reporting needs. When GAAP-based financial statements are not required, the FRF for SMEs may be the ideal accounting basis for owner-managers and users who need financial statements that are prepared in a consistent and reliable manner in accordance with a framework that has undergone professional and public scrutiny.
Implementation Resources
Along with the framework, the AICPA has developed implementation resources to assist owner-managers of SMEs, their outside CPAs, and those who use their financial statements. This guidance includes illustrative financial statements, a presentation and disclosure checklist, certain illustrative application examples, and sample audit, compilation and review reports. Although separate from the framework itself, the implementation guidance is included to give users a more complete resource for adopting and using the framework.

Adorable and practical
"These look fabulous with any office dress - I've gotten a ton of positive comments. They are very comfy and I've worn them all day without achy feet. They are a little snug across the toes, so if you're a bit wide there, I suggest getting them stretched professionally. A small price to pay for such eye-catching, classic yet modern heels."

Super cute, love these!
"I ordered these shoes and wore them for the first time yesterday, all day. I was on my feet all day. They are mostly comfortable. I had no blisters, no rubs, nothing. They fit perfectly. Of course, I'd love more padding in the ball of my foot, but overall, I'd buy these again. I generally wear an 8, sometimes an 8.5 I ordered an 8 in these, and they were perfect. I also own another pair of Max Studio patent heels in an 8. They will stretch a bit for comfort."

Last Monday was reported to be the saddest day of this year. So to help you and I face Monday and the beginning of a new week, in case you missed these stories…..
Roger Ebert has written in his Chicago Sun Times blog of how he will once again be "Leading with my chin."
………..That was the beginning of a two-year process that has now resulted with my coming into possession of a silicone prosthesis. Dr. Reisberg brought in David Rotter, also from the University of Illinois, and he involved Julie Jordan Brown, a Milwaukee artist and anaplastologist. Working from molds, they created a prototype prosthesis and sculpted it carefully to more closely resemble what had been there before. This device would fit over my lower face and neck and, colored to match my skin, would pass muster at a certain distance……….
He will wear the facial prosthetic on his new show set to debuted Friday January 21, 2011: Ebert Presents at the Movies. He speaks using his voice through his laptop.
Last week, we heard the voice of a woman who is only the second person to receive a larynx transplant. The 52 yo California woman's surgery was done by a team of surgeons at UC Davis Medical Center.
From this article by Aaron Saenz: Woman Speaks With Her Own Voice After Larynx Transplant (video) comes the reminder that just last year a 10 year old boy had a new trachea made from his own stem cells.
So is this surgery simply a fluke? …... According to Paolo Macchiarini, one of the surgeons involved, "Not only is it highly relevant for future transplants, it offers us insights that may one day lead to using stem cells to repair the voicebox and surrounding areas in the throat."
When it comes to stem cells and the throat, Macchiarini knows what he's talking about. Last year he was the leader of a team that grew a new trachea in a 10 year old boy using the child's own stem cells. As he stated in regards to the Jensen case, "Being able to restore nerves and reconnect blood vessels in and around the larynx and trachea, and have it all work, was a real test." Perhaps this most recent operation will lead to further remarkable work from Macchiarini in the near future.

"These shoes were awful! They look cute, but the little rhinestones are linked together by a mesh which is not very secure on the shoe, just attached at the edges. The mesh lines ripped in a couple of spots, but since they were black it didn't stand out unless you were looking directly at the shoes. Plus they were so uncomfortable. They fit perfect when I tried them on in the store, but when I wore them they rubbed my heel raw. Luckily I wore them when I only had to walk to a few yards total the entire evening, or I would have been going barefoot after a short time as they hurt my feet so bad."

Canucks Sign Goaltender Joe Cannata
Thomas Drance
March 21 2012 12:03PM
The Canucks announced today that they have signed their 6th round pick in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, goaltender Joe Cannata to an entry level deal. The deal doesn't come as a surprise, as Lorne Henning told the Vancouver Sun a week ago that the team is "very high on [Cannata] and are in the process right now of trying to sign him." Guess that process if complete then!
Joe Cannata just completed his senior season, in which he nearly carried the Merrimack Warriors to an NCAA tournament berth that ultimately fell short. Cannata's masterful performance this season earned him First Team Hockey East honours. Here's the full press release from Canucks.nhl.com.
Read past the jump for more on Cannata.
Though they've produced several NHL prospects in recent years (Stephane De Costa, for example) Merrimack is a relatively new DIV 1 hockey program. This season was their best yet, and Joe Cannata was easily their MVP. Here's Mark McMahon on what Cannata has accomplished over the past two seasons in the ECAC:
Cannata will graduate as Merrimack's all-time leader in wins, games played, minutes played, saves, goals-against and save percentage. He started all but one game in his final two years and allowed only 27 even strength goals (excluding empty netters) in 27 league games this season. The Wakefield native surrendered more than two goals only eight times this year, as Merrimack went 18-2-4 when scoring two or more goals. Cannata has a 2.18 goals-against and a .925 save percentage this season and a career goals-against of 2.47 and a save percentage of .915.
Very impressive stuff.
This season, Cannata allowed only 79 goals on 1053 shots for a Merrimack team that by all accounts was nothing special. Cannata, however, gave the team a chance to win every game, and they ultimately fell only a single game short of a tournament berth. In that final game against Rhode Island, Cannata was hurt badly in the third period, but stayed in the game and continued to battle hard, making several tough stops to keep the game close.
While it's likely that Cannata gets a taste of AHL regular season action with the Chicago Wolves before the end of this regular season, the Wolves are very deep in net with veteran Matt Climie and the NHL-ready Eddie Lack already between the pipes. As such the Wolves probably don't have a place for Cannata this season.
As such, it will be interesting to see whether or not Cannata ends up playing in the ECHL playoffs this Spring. The Canucks' ECHL affiliate, the Kalamazoo Wings, currently lead the ECHL's North Division and certainly a goaltender of Cannata's caliber could be just the thing to push the Wings over the top.
Update (11:15 am) according to Brad Zeimer, Cannata will spend the balance of the regular season with the Chicago Wolves, and he'll then return to Merrimack in order to graduate with his degree in business administration. Gillis, remember, likes his players smart!
Here's a feature from NESN about Joe Cannata from earlier this season (includes some highlights and player interviews):
It's tournament berth not birth, a tournament does not produce a living being.
The game where he was hurt was the final quarterfinal game against Maine, not Rhode Island. Also, watched him play live here in Maine, he's a great goalie who gives out very few rebounds. Should have a good future ahead of him.

The Rebels have been racking up points, and are a team on the verge of success. In their last four games they have lost by less than a converted try.
The Stormers have similar experience of narrow margins, winning two games and losing two games by less than a seven-point margin.
The difference in the fortune between these teams isn't much.
The Stormers didn't cross the try-line against the Waratahs last week in Sydney. They relied on the goal-kicking of Joe Pietersen to keep them in touch for most of the game but it wasn't enough to do anything but salvage a bonus point. In fact, in their last four games the Stormers have scored four tries.
Contrast that to the Rebels, who while losing to the Blues, accrued 14 tries in their last four games. Their attacking options have increased and they've taken more of their opportunities.
Here's where the intrigue begins – if we flip the statistic to tries conceded though, and they tell a different story. In their last four outings the Stormers have conceded only four tries, the Rebels twelve.
So while it seems like a match of two middling teams at face value, the reality is that these two teams could provide a game filled with high-stakes action. The Rebels will be hectic, almost desperate while the Stormers clinical and patient.
The Rebels have made four changes to the side that lost to the Blues last week. First choice scrum-half Nick Phipps starts from the bench, having a rare rest which gives Nick Stirzaker his first starting role as scrum-half.
Lachlan Mitchell moves to the left wing to cover Cooper Vuna, who will miss the match with a calf strain. In turn, Rory Sidey fills Mitchell's regular position at 12.
Mitchell's defensive starch shores up the Rebels left side but the move fractures his extremely effective partnership with Mitchell Inman who will again play at outside centre.
Former Brumbies winger Kimami Sitauti will make his first appearance for the Rebels, coming off the reserves bench. Bryce Hegarty, who came on as a third string fly-half last week against the Blues, will start in that position. Ged Robinson returns at hooker, relegating Shota Horie to the bench.
Stormers coach Allister Coetzee has made seven changes to his squad for Friday. Deon Fourie again slots in on the side of the scrum, giving Scarra Ntubeni his first taste of Super Rugby this season in the number two jersey. Fourie's line-out throwing hasn't been up to scratch and Coetzee will be hoping for a better performance from the new hooker.
Nizaam Carr also gets his first start of the year, packing down at number eight. Flanker Siya Kolisi will serve on the openside this week with Rynhardt Elstadt missing out completely due to injury.
Coetzee has taken a broom to his halves, sweeping the channel clean to restore Elton Jantjies and Louis Schreuder to fly-half and scrum-half respectively. Jantjies comes in as a direct swap for Gary van Aswegan while Dewaldt Duvenage has been omitted from the matchday 22.
The key to this game is Jantjies. If the playmaker can find his rhythm and dictate the play, the Stormers could win in at a canter. If the Rebels can nullify him by cramping him for time and space, they're an outside chance.
The Rebels will hope their loose forwards will again lay a platform but may struggle with the inexperienced halves combination of Stirzaker and Hegarty, who will play their first game as a combination, and both in their run-on debuts.
Prediction: The Stormers are depleted on the road, as testified by their changes. The Rebels have toiled for a month and are probably hurting both physically and emotionally. It will be a struggle for both teams, but the class of the Stormers may shade the Rebels' work ethic. Stormers by 3!
The teams:
Rebels 15 Jason Woodward, 14 Tom English, 13 Mitch Inman, 12 Rory Sidey, 11 Lachlan Mitchell, 10 Bryce Hegarty, 9 Nic Stirzaker, 8 Scott Higginbotham, 7 Scott Fuglistaller, 6 Jarrod Saffy, 5 Cadeyrn Neville, 4 Hugh Pyle, 3 Laurie Weeks, 2 Ged Robinson, 1 Nic Henderson.

The night at the races was a hit for members and guests at the Castle Rock Chamber of Commerce Kentucky Derby-themed awards banquet.
Wide-brimmed hats and Derby attire marked the April 25 event, where attendees helped raise more than $5,000 for chamber programs.
The biggest winner of the night was local businessman Rick Stucy, who was named the chamber's 2013 Businessperson of the Year.
Stucy is owner of Stucy Realty, chairman of the downtown development authority and a longtime chamber member, who spearheaded construction of the Rink at the Rock, Castle Rock's outdoor ice rink.
He won the chamber's top award of the evening after being nominated with Wes King, president of FirstBank of Douglas County, and John Manka, owner of 1Stop Tire & Auto.
"This award really is special because (Castle Rock chamber members) gave it," Stucy said. "It's Castle Rock and you mean the world to me."
The other awards of the night included the Ping Lee Jung Volunteer of the Year award, which went to Lisa Frizell of the Douglas County assessor's office; the Ambassador of the Year award, which went to Sue Turner of Proforma Image Branding; and the Citizen of the Year award, which went to Manka.
The chamber did not go away empty-handed, with more than $4,800 raised in its live auction. Auctioneer John Anderson, commander with the Castle Rock Police Department, prompted bidders to raise $1,500 for an interactive training experience at the Douglas County Sheriff's Office training facility; $675 for a chance to light the star at Castle Rock's holiday Starlighting; $700 for dinner for four, served by the firefighters with the Castle Rock Fire Department; and $1,950 for a 30-minute AirLife helicopter ride, courtesy of Sky Ridge Medical Center.
Sky Ridge representative Linda Watson upped the ante for the helicopter ride, donating a second ride on the spot to allow two bidders to walk away as winners.
John Medved, owner of Medved Autoplex, won the first ride with a $1,000 bid and the next closest bidder donated $950 for a second ride.
"It's an experience you'll never forget," Watson said.

|In response to Re: Thanks Terry, Deb, and others!
: I just wanted to follow up with all of you today to let you know that I just finished installing the new brass shut off valve at my friend's house! I successfully removed the galvanized pipe just above the 90 degree elbow where it entered her crawlspace. I did have to use the propane torch to heat the fitting a little bit, and then I had to use a lot of muscle and leverage to get the pipe loose, but it worked!
: I then installed a 6" brass nipple, used the teflon sealant Terry recommended, then attached the brass ball valve. When I turned the water back on at the street, there were no leaks whatsoever!
: Thanks to all of you for your help. Tomorrow I will begin installing the new lines. I spent some time this afternoon getting a new freeze-proof sillcock through the outer wall. This one had a fitting on the end that was slightly larger than the opening in the wall, so I had to spend some time widening the opening.
: Anyway, I'll let all of you know how the rest of this job goes, but so far, it's been going great!

Great Running Shoe
"I had been wearing the WR1063 and was happy with that. This is the lastest in that series. The shoe is comfortable, with good support and excellent cushioning. As a runner with a high arch and tendency towards plantar fasciitis, I've found these to be the perfect neutral cushion shoe. Would definitely recommend these shoes to others with similar foot issues."

The Falcons, who have yet to lose in a championship game, will meet a familiar opponent in Continental League rival Regis Jesuit in a 3:30 p.m. game. The Raiders (25-2) edged Grandview 46-43 in Thursday's first Class 5A semifinal game.
Regis won the 2009 state championship but lost to Highland Ranch in the 2008 and 2011 title games. The Raiders whipped the Falcons, 64-47, earlier this season in a league game.
"They are a good opponent," Highlands Ranch guard Shelby Hickey said. "This is all or nothing. It's for the state title so obviously it's going to be a good game."
Hickey hit a trio of key 3-point baskets and had 12 points in Thursday night's win. Highlands Ranch held a 33-32 lead early in the third quarter when Arapahoe went 5:52 without scoring and the Falcons scored nine unanswered points to take an 11-point lead.
The Falcons were up by 12 points in the fourth quarter when Stacie Lukasiewicz scored six straight points for the Warriors, who used an 11-2 run to pull to within 51-49 with 2:41 remaining in the game.
Hickey, a 5-10 senior, then buried a 3-pointer to start a 9-0 Highlands Ranch spurt that sealed the victory.
"We're in the Final Four," said Hickey. "It's not a league game. You've got to hit your shots. That's what I did. You've just got to get in that rhythm. Once you hit a few shots. I'm a rhythm shooter and that's what happens."
Hickey, rebounding and the transition game, according to Jarocki, were the keys to the victory.
"That was big shot by Shelby," Jarocki said. "She saved us with 3s in the first half too. We had a lot of turnovers. We had a lot of mistakes but the kids played really tough and hung in there. Rebounding really saved us. We have to get into transition, rebound and go."
Arapahoe took a 16-15 lead after the first quarter as Lukasiewicz scored seven points to offset a quick start by the Falcons Madison Montgomery, who had eight points.
The Warriors led 22-17 with 5:55 left before halftime but the Falcons, fueled by two 3-pointers from Hickey, went on a 9-0 run and appeared ready to take a five-point lead into the dressing room but Arapahoe's Kera Riley swished a 3-pointer from midcourt before the buzzer, which trimmed the Falcons lead to 29-27 at the intermission.
"They are strong shooters and they kept hitting 3-pointers," Jarocki said.
Ciera Morgan led Highlands Ranch with 17 points and was 13-for-16 at the foul line. She was 6-for-6 in the final 3:24 to short circuit any Warrior comeback hopes.
Montgomery finished with 14 points and Kelsey Wainright added 11 points. Abriana Lujan and Emily Childress each had nine rebounds for Highlands Ranch, which held a 37-25 edge over the Warriors on the boards.
Highlands Ranch had 19 turnovers but outscored Arapahoe 22-2 from the free throw line.
Lukasiewicz led Arapahoe with 13 points and Riley had 10 for the Warriors, who finished the season with a 24-3 record.

It's the last week of October leading up to Halloween and we're celebrating all things Goosebumps here on the STACKS.
Goosebumps books are such page-turners and one of the things that makes them so much fun are the monsters, ghouls and villains that R.L. Stine creates to terrorize his characters—and his readers. Now we can learn how to draw the Goosebumps ghouls with a new book that provides step-by-step instructions for our favorite Goosebumps villains. All the fan favorites such as Slappy, the Haunted Mask, Werewolf of Fever Swamp and the Horror are included, plus many others.
Did you know that the basic foundation of all drawings are basic shapes like circles and squares? Very true! And the book teaches you that you need to think of these shapes in 3D to make drawings look realistic. You start out with these basic shapes and work on adding details and refining to create the character drawings. OK, sounds simple enough. I like to think I'm pretty talented. I mean I'm no Picasso but hey, who is, right? Check out my rendition of Slappy. . .
