Las Vegas gaming and starting to look to next season
July 21 2009 02:30PM
Now that we are approaching 45 hours since we stopped partying as though our life somehow depended on it, we can start to reset our brain-o-meter from "Vegas" to "reality." For those of you who were fortunate enough not to be subjected to our drunken Twittering we went down to LV as part of a 31 man crew, in town to celebrate three simultaneous bachelor parties. We gambled, drank like the Russian Navy on temporary shore leave, unsuccessfully tried to bargain with Ladies of the Night and generally behaved like the type of degenerates that have allowed Steve Wynn's bank account to swell up bigger than Dustin Penner in the offseason.
Go figure
As part of our vacation we placed our 5th annual bet on the Oilers to win the Cup. We can tell you that the Bitter Disappointment of 2006© was impossibly magnified by the $10 bet ticket that was on our fridge the entire season. It just sat there for almost 9 whole months, judging us. "All it takes is one Cup win Wanye and this rich bounty of 500 plus dollars is all yours." We alternately yelled and kissed that ticket as the season wore on, until the climactic drunken-tearing-into-shreds post G7 loss.
But this article isn't about the disappointment of 2006 – it's analyzing the possible disappointment of 2010.
Placing the bet
Saturday afternoon we walked up to the Sports Book at the MGM Grand to place our $20 bet on the Oilers to win the Stanley Cup. We were shocked – shocked!- that the NHL odds for next season weren't occupying a prominenent place on the immense odds board being scrutinized by the gambling zombies in attendance. A wide swath of society had turned out to place sports wagers - from the dangerously skinny to the morbidly obese, from all walks of life and every economic station on the line. There they were, milling about and bathed in the warm glow of screen after screen of betting odds.
Once we had made it to the front of the startingly long line, we demanded to place our bet on the Edmonton Oilers to win the Stanley Cup in the 2009-10 season. "The who?" asked the bored lady sitting in the betting cage. "Why the greatest team on Earth my good woman – the Edmonton Oilers" we calmly replied. "Don't y'all wanna see the odds list first?" she helpfully queried. "Ma'am," we countered, "simply take this American Currency and place it directly on the shoulders of one Mr. Pat Quinn and one Mr. Tom Renney. It's going to be OK I can assure you."
"So ya'll, basically throwing y'all money away?" our newly minted mortal enemy absently asked as she punched the requisite information into her computer. Shocked at her ignorant attitude we tried to explain the sheer genius of the wager. "Well see, what you need to remember is th-" we began before being interrupted. "Cawse at thirty-five to one y'all placing your money on a lawngshawt…"
It was at this point – when a lady whose very employment depends on people placing risky bets calling us out – that we launched into a rant describing of the long road to ruin the Oil have been on of late and made attempts to tell this uninterested stranger how the Vegas odds are incalculably wrong. "Listen honey" the lady drawled, after humoring our impassioned pleas on behalf of a team half a world away, "I just take these here bets, I don't make them odds."
It got us to thinking
As we walked away with our betting ticket for next season we started to wonder what a reasonable expectation for next season will be for the Mighty Oilers. Don't get us wrong – if you ask us how the Oilers are going to do next year we would shout "82-0 BITCH and four straight sweeps right to the Cup!" Then we would laugh heartily and fondly imagine some sort of parallel universe where the Oil are capable of this feat while furiously rubbing a rabbit's foot for luck.
If someone dares to take exception with our prediction or sadly pats us on the shoulder, we will immediately punch them square in the face. But sometimes late at night, when we lie in our bed beneath the warmth of our Hanna Montana bedspread, we secretly wonder what a reasonable expectation for next year will be.
Really how good can we expect the Oil to actually be next season?
We always have the highest expectations – and rarely if ever do any of them fall short. But when it comes to the Oilers this season we are caught in a bit of a quandary. Last summer we were over optimistic – fresh off a barn burning run featuring nary a single Oilers veteran player. "Look at all these super rookies!" we can remember excitedly exclaiming to the Nation, "It's a wonder that four separate Oilers aren't nominated for the Calder Trophy this season!" Then we would laugh heartily and furiously rub a rabbit's foot for luck.
This offseason we are dejectedly over pessimistic – or so the hope goes. We can't understand how a team that was picked by some to win the division last year could so spectacularly mess the bed down the stretch to miss the playoffs. There is seemingly little fire in the belly of these 23 professionals. The entire time Dany Heatley was kicking our fair Team in the face, did you see any of the multi-millionaires currently employed by the Oilers publicly coming to the defense of the team?
How about you Shawn Horcoff? Did you come out and say "we will be fine without Heatley. Trust me and my $192 million dollar contract?."
And you Captain Ethan Moreau. Were you holding a press conference the next day to discuss how wonderful the team is going to be next season regardless of a blockbuster trade?
Rest assured we are firmly in our seat at the front of the Oilers bandwagon. Even if they go 15-65-0-2 we will faithfully watch every game and spew venomous bile from our seats high up in RX1. If they go 65-15-0-2 we will sass talk that bastard TLP within an inch of his very life and proudly go about town telling anyone who will listen that "we knew it all along."
Perhaps it's time to start thinking about reasonable expectations for 2009-2010.
July 21 2009, 02:37PM
"But perhaps it's time to start thinking about reasonable expectations for 2009-2010."
43 - 35 - 0 - 4 And hopefully the 90 points I'm expecting is enough to make the playoffs *starts his season long prayer now*
If they go 15-65-0-2 we can land Taylor Hall! YA! Oh wait that would not be fun to watch whatsoever would it? OH THE MORAL DILEMMA!
I think 90 points is a reasonable mark to get to, but looking at some of these upstart teams in the West, namely Chicago and Columbus, I think it's going to be a tight squeeze this year in the West boy.
Some historical perspective:

@ Robin Brownlee:
He's got tiny little hands and he's MINE OKAY! Back off Brownlee! I drugged him and put him in the back of the JSBM Panel Van® fair and square. We like to call it a "Recruitment Drive".
I think a 100 point season is in the fold. That should put us about 4th in the West with Home Ice advantage for the first round.
I also think the World is flat and that Badger's make great house pets.
Realistically: 40-37-5 85 PTS Hopefully: 44-32-6 94 PTS
But there's no chance in hell we'll be 12 games above .500.
You should see my house badger... it ate my house hippo.
July 21 2009, 03:10PM
Yes, the bandwagon will be ridden... but I'm sure I'll be just as crabby on it this year as I was last year...
July 21 2009, 03:11PM
@ Mother Pucker Hockey:
I wonder though if this team is capable of overachieving to some degree...
Its going to be a battle to 8th like it has been every year. I think this year Quinn and Renney will be able to power the team that 3 wins it needs to make it but who knows. I dont think this team is very good and quite frankly we have 10 shades of jack and shît to fix it.

I imagine part of it comes from the absolute c**kpunch that was the end of the 06-07 season. I was around in the gory years, and I think those last 20-odd games ranked as one of the lowest points of being an Oilers fan.

I think the wikipedia page for the Oilers should be amended to include this gem. Or possibly a banner hung at RX1.
Is that Natalie Portman in your fantasy Wayne?
@ Wanye Gretz: Wanye, get out of the drivers seat of the bandwagon.... ITS TIME TO GHOST RIDE THIS B@TCH TO THE STANLEY CUP!! W000! (I'm going to Vegas Friday morning till Wednesday and your post sort of got me amped up)
Jumping off the Tom Watson bandwagon for a moment, looking for my ETS transfer to the broken and near-empty Oilers one:
Bulin Wall, coupled with the Pentagon budget defense corps and some spirited play from our new "energy" guys will bring us playoffs.
Another hope is O'Sully can snipe so prolifically, we forget about Ales(2).
I observe that the last 2 seasons we've let go a number of useful depth players, and kept the "veterans" and"projects" I routinely shook my head at watching last year's Oiler games.
Bring back the Electric Norseman!
Lowetide gets his wish: Pou-Pou-Pouliot all the time
The new coaches won't allow for the routine gassing of 3rd period 1-goal leads, and hopefully can get us back to "AVERAGE" for the PP and PK units.
They also have a new strategy: lose every faceoff on purpose.
I love that the lady in Vegas felt the need to tell you were gambling on a long shot. If there ever was a sign about the upcoming season ...
Great read, Wanye. You're right about our Fearless Captain Glass Moreau, though. Where have any of them been throughout this Heatley mess? Thanks for showing up, boys.

@ r59:
You shan't speak her name aloud, but yes.
Have a great time DKO. It's hotter than Satan's toenails down there right now. I actually JUST watched the ghost ride the whip video. Will we ever be able to play that in triumphant jubilation this season?? Answer: YES
@ risto:
Pentagon Budget Defense Corps is a faceshattering name for these goobers. Grebs at $3.15 million? It's going to be too easy to make him my goat again this year.
@ Shannon:
I'm honestly amazed how no Oilers step up in defense of the Team despite its continuous smack downs in the Free Agent Season.
LOL. Good to have you and your Paint skills back Wayne. But no way would Optimus let his kid be seen in dirty hippie gear- he's no Canuck fan.
I predict the Oil squeek into the dance with an 8th place finish and then make a surprising run to the cup final.
bolstered by a trade deadline major aquisition, natch.

This is particularly funny! Latest read is if Heatley is traded, it will likely be to San Jose. If this happens, then Tambellini can finally start to look at other steps to improve the team. The problem continues to be in moving player contracts to get out of cap purgatory. It seems that the Flames are signing new players almost every day to strengthen their team. How can they do this and our rocket scientists continue to stand pat?
Utilizing some statistical wizardry I have the Oilers with 87 points in a tie for 9th (Win % = 0.530, GF 238, GA 227). I'll be updating the full spreadsheet this week sometime.
I just read an article on hockeybuzz.com about Linus Omarks agent having a hate on for edm and that is why he is in the KHL this year what has this city done to deserve this crap.Pretty bad when even players agents don't want their players playing in edm SMFH
@ DonDon: Maybe we should have hired hockey guys instead of rocket scientists?
@ DonDon: Yah and you know what's real funny is they are going to lose Boyd there is a lot of flameouts actually freaking right out about this right now
July 21 2009, 05:17PM
Ahhh this is what I like to see expectations so low even our current crop of Oilers can achieve them! This just sets us fans up for the enviable (sp) crash the summer after next when we again have high expectations and the team then proceeds to poop on them yet again! Yes I would rather be an Oiler fan then anything. The roller coaster ride is one I would never miss.
Wanye, my good buddy Ryan was in on that very same debaucherous Vegas trip. He came back looking more weathered than Bea Arthur's old catchers mitt. Nice work.

Grebs is not the goat pulling the Oilers bandwagon he is the hero riding atop of it.
* Like blood from a stone, Cambosmash sheds a single tear of happiness at the Grebeshkov signing.*
*pounds back 5 quarts of Oiler-Aid*
I say 44-32-6 94 points
94, thats a good number, which reminds me:
Gilbert and Nilsson to Colorado for Ryan Smyth and Scott Hannan
Now I say 46-31-5 97 points. I hope I stay lit long enough to see it happen.

Smyth is an LA King now.
I'll guesstimize 95 points, tie for seventh/eighth, will get 8th based on wins.
I don't think Tambo is done, I think having Grebs deal done will allow him to get on with it. I also don't think we're getting top 3 help, but some defensive help(forward/pk wise) and a healthy Vishnovsky should = playoff spot.
*sobers up from Oiler-Aid*
Smyth and Hannan... wtf is in this stuff?
In all seriousness:
I'll stick with the 44-32-6, that looks about right. Quinn/Renney, slight upgrade in net, full year of the Big Vish, and breakout years from the kids. I see us in the 5-9 range, thats a big skew but every year it gets tighter in the west.
from Garbagekov to Gottahavekov in one season. Did he get that much better or did our team get that much worse?

One of five possible places -- way to go out on a limb.
Dammit. That song is catchy.
How long until Hemmer is like "Fu*k this boat, just drop me off on that deserted island.". If he has to play with Horc all year feeding him passes and seeing the mesh ripple, (not the mesh on the net, the mesh above the glass), he will be wanting out! Such a fantastic contract, greatest in recent memory being wasted. How discouraging for him, how many points could he put up with some competant skilled forwards to play with?

Gutsy - but I like it.
As long as the injury bug doesn't knock out Vishnovsky or Souray....again.
As long as we can find a person to play left wing every night beside Hemsky & Horcoff.
35-1? Back in July 07, I put $20 down and got 50-1 for the Oil to win the cup at the Mirage. I remember the Flamers were 10-1 or something and I said that there was no way they were covering that bet.
But alas, I think it threw the ticket away at the mid-way point at the season when you probably should have gotten 100-1. That was before the big run which then lit up our optimism last season.
*small cry*

@ BUCK75: 6th in the NORTWEST. Did you catch that.
So Roloson was not the problem last year, but they add a guy that has a good season every contract year and all of the sudden they`re better. I`m not at all a Roli fan, but I don`t see how the Khabibulin acquisition improves this club. Health and better years from half the team could see them climb the ladder... BUT... which team is gonna fall out: San Jose - no Detroit - no Vancouver - not IMO Chicago - no Calgary - no St. Louis - not IMO Columbus - possible Anahiem - no
And who else could slide in: Colorado - not likely Minnesota - possible LA - possible, probable IMO Phoenix - possible Dallas - possible Nashville - possible
Looks like one big clusterfukc to me. As always, injuries will play a significant factor.
Reasonable expectation (as team currently stands) - 9th or 10th.

I was thinking the same thing as Tommy. There are 30 teams in the NHL, so what Vegas is really saying is that in their eyes, the Oil have pretty much the same chance as any other team to win. Makes you wonder, did they research NHL hockey this year any more than, say, the U. S. Association of Rock Paper Scissors or The Extreme Ironing World Championships? They may as well just put up a big sign that says 'We, the Management, firmly believe that if you're dumb enough to bet real money on NHL Hockey, you won't be able to find your way back here to collect if you win. Like we'd be able to verify it anyway."

Sure thing:

Probably: Van
Fighting for the last three spots
Ducks/Wild/BJ's/Oil/Blues/Kings (One will suprise and end up in the top 5)

1. Space Is the Place.
When The New York Times Magazine profiled the artist James Turrell (ahead of a retrospective that debuted simultaneously in three cites last summer), a few things about him became clear. While light is the subject of his art, light would be nothing without its artifice: custom-built rooms and modified interiors. Just because you've received a MacArthur "genius" grant doesn't mean you can't get sued (all those light tricks and dark rooms can be a little disorienting and hazardous). And, most impressively, the man owns an extinct volcano in Arizona. Does Turrell and his work personify the architectural sublime, or is it "anti-architecture"? The Los Angeles County Museum of Art will conclude its Turrell retrospective on April 6.

2. Cool Spaces.
Stephen Chung, AIA, knows cool—and he's bringing his show Cool Spaces! to PBS and PBS affiliates on March 31, when "Performance Spaces" explores the ins and outs of Dallas Cowboys Stadium by HKS, the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts in Kansas City, Mo., by Safdie Architects, and Barclays Center in Brooklyn by SHoP Architects. Other episodes next month include "Libraries" (April 7), "Art Spaces" (April 14), and "Healing Spaces" (April 21). Look for the accompanying book, Cool Spaces!: The Best New Architecture, at Barnes & Noble and other outlets in April.

3. Pack Your Bags.
Since 2012, the Harvard Graduate School of Design's (GSD) $100,000 Wheelwright Prize has been available to any graduate of an accredited school of architecture—not just the GSD. Never mind that the designer Gia Wolff, the inaugural recipient for 2013, is a GSD alumna; the important thing is the prize's potential. Wolff has finished traveling and will lecture next month at the Louisiana State University College of Art + Design on her Wheelwright project, "Floating City: The Community-Based Architecture of Parade Floats," sponsored in part by AIA Baton Rouge.
Learn more at design.lsu.edu and aiabr.com.
4. Global Practice.
If you've been following architecture in Europe, you've come across Nasrine Seraji's work. Her Paris firm, Atelier Seraji, has completed apartments, mixed-use buildings, student housing, a stock exchange addition, sports centers, and master plans in more than seven French cities, as well as in Vienna, Tehran, and Beijing. Seraji's work has also been the subject of more than a dozen exhibitions. She will discuss these and other projects as the headliner of the AIA St. Louis Scholarship Trust Lecture at the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis.
Learn more at samfoxschool.wustl.edu.
5. Healthy Debate.
What part of public health belongs to design? How can good design principles translate into sound standards that support positive health outcomes? How can design solutions address social equity? To answer these and other questions, the AIA, the AIA Foundation, and ACSA will convene "The Value of Design: Design and Health," a cross-disciplinary summit for architects, public health officials, government and nongovernment organizations, universities, and members of the private sector that will take place at AIA National Headquarters in Washington, D.C.

Great all-day tour outside Auckland to a surrounding temperate rain forest and to the west coast. David was a excellent driver/tour guide, and found a wonderful secluded place for us to have lunch away from the beach because it was a day with unusually high winds.

Our Philosophy &
In our experience, the most successful corporate presentations are those that utilize a team approach. Students are eager to meet and hear from senior members of the management team, but they are also interested in relevant information from recent graduates, particularly alumni. During the past year, we hosted over 100 corporate recruiting events for students. These forums are the most popular recruiting method for the initial introduction between our students and employers.
Types of Corporate Presentations
All corporate presentations are held in classrooms that are fully A/V equipped.
Lunch Events – 12:30 to 1:20 p.m. (Monday – Friday)
These events typically include a company-sponsored box lunch and beverages.
Evening Events – 5:30 to 6:20 p.m. (Monday – Thursday)
These events usually include a company-sponsored reception held after the presentation from 6:20 to 7:30 p.m. in a reception room with beverages and hors d'oeuvres.
MBA Network Nights – 5:30 to 7 p.m. (select Mondays)
These events are an opportunity to attend a mini career fair environment with several other companies in a reception room with beverages and light refreshments.
Additional Presentation Options
Pre-Interview – 5:30 to 7 p.m. (Monday – Thursday)
Held the evening before the interview day, recruiters meet with the students on their interview schedule.
Office Hours – 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (Monday – Friday)
Recruiters can reserve space, if available, to meet with particular students by invitation or open the event to all students.
Steps For Arranging Corporate Presentations

Contact the Assistant Director, Recruiting at 412-268-1311 to request a presentation date. If requesting an interview date, the Assistant Director, Recruiting will ask if you would like to reserve a presentation date.

Complete the corporate presentation form. Once submitted, your event is confirmed.
3. Confirm catering arrangements:
We ask that companies handle all catering arrangements directly with local caterers. You will be billed directly by the vendors. Students are asked to register for corporate presentations, and the RSVPs will be available two working days prior to your visit.

This particular phrase is found in John 3:15,16 and five other times in the NT.
If I am reading my Greek resources correctly, πιστευων is a participle and interesting to me, singular.
I know that this sounds like a translation issue, but I am really interested in the reason a writer in Greek would use the participle rather than a verb. Does this mean that, grammatically proper use of πας ὸ requires that it be linked with a participle/noun? With a noun, it seems to mean "all the x" which is expected. Is there ever an instance where πας ὸ would be linked with a verb?
Also, πας ὸ appears 56 times and is linked the most with a participle and less often with a noun. The straightforward sense of the term is "everyone" and combined with the participle seems to refer to everyone doing whatever the verb calls for - looking, hearing, believing - yet again consistently translated as looks, hears, believes. Is there a reason why the Greek participle never seems to be translated as an -ing word in English?
Why is the participle singular? Does that have any significance in how we are to understand what the writer is saying? Could the plural be used?

The Prank of ALL Pranks! But What Price?
by Tim Wenger
posted Mar 12 2013 3:10PM
It really has to be just about THE prank of all pranks. And those responsible didn't even set out to do what actually happened in the end.
These two unidentified twenty-something's pranked Buffalo Bills GM Buddy Nix by getting through to his office. But they got cold feet when he actually answered, so they hung up. Buddy, being a persistent NFL GM, kept calling the number back because he was led to believe the call came from Tampa Bay GM Mark Dominik.
Those two guys were pretty persistent too as they picked up the phone to call Dominik too and prank him as well. Just as Dominik was picking up the line, Nix rang through to the guys and they answered, conferencing them all together. So Nix and Dominik did all the talking while the two pranksters stayed hush and recorded the conversation on another phone.
When you put it all together it's all quite amazing. It truly is a masterful prank that will go down in the history books.
Nix and Dominik talked for several minutes, complaining about the newly instituted 72 hour rule for NFL free agency and Nix went on to lament about the predicament his club is in with quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick. As a casual observer and fan of either team, it's all pretty interesting stuff. It's some inside information and insight to the inner-workings of the NFL.
But step back a bit and think about the ramifications of this amazing stunt. At the very least it makes the Bills and Tampa club look pretty bad. It makes you wonder how Buddy Nix thought he was really calling Mark Dominik as the phone call begins with Nix questioning Dominik why there's no voicemail and why no one answers his phone.
Most of us have been the victim of an embarrassing prank in our lifetimes. Fortunately, most of these pranks are harmless and end up being a good story. But in the case, there's a lot on the line. Millions and millions of dollars are at stake in free agency and in the NFL draft that's approaching. The livelihood of Ryan Fitzpatrick, Nix and Dominik could also be on the line following this prank.
As you would expect, the Buffalo Bills are looking into the legal aspects of the release of the phone call audio by the website Deadspin.com. At first glance, legal experts tell WBEN the two who recorded the call could be in some serious legal hot water and Deadspin may have some issues of its own as well.
But while the social media world erupts with amusing commentary about the masterfully pulled-off prank, it'll be interesting to see who gets the last laugh. Somehow I don;t think it will be the two pranksters.
And finally, think about this. In a day and age when two young men can successfully prank two top NFL executives and record their conversation unknowingly, we're waiting to see whether white or black smoke comes from a chimney high atop The Vatican.
It really is a tale of two worlds.

Irony of ironies
This station was George W Bush's cheerleader numero uno when he was shredding the Constitution. Perhaps you've conveniently forgotten the so-called "Patriot Act" along with forgetting how their looting of the Treasury gave us thedeficit we're still dealing with. Spare us the lecture, hypocrite.

Ladies beaten away at Forest
Nottingham Forest Ladies 3 (Greaves 11, Howard 40, 59)
Wolves Women 0
Wolves Women exited the FA Cup in the second round after a lacklustre 3-0 defeat away at Nottingham Forest.
Wolves were the first to threaten in a poor game, with Dani Selmes pouncing on a poor back-pass on a heavy pitch, but the Forest keeper rushed out to deny the opportunity.
Natalie Hall, pictured, was forced into a superb finger-tip save minutes later to deny the home side, but was powerless to stop Forest scoring the opening goal from the resulting corner. Wolves only half cleared the flag kick nd Katrina Greaves rifled her effort into the net from 20 yards to put Forest ahead.
Wolves tried to respond but struggled to find their rhythm on a difficult pitch and found it difficult to create chances.
Forest hit the bar on 25 minutes before doubling their lead before half time. Meg Howard was played through and she ran clear of the defence to calmly stroke the ball past Hall, despite strong protests for offside from Wolves' players and staff.
The second half continued with both sides struggling to keep the ball and create chances, but Forest were able to put the game to bed with another goal from Howard, who raced onto a long ball before rounding the on-rushing Hall to finish.
Jade Hewitt came close with a volley for Wolves on the hour mark but Wanderers never looked like getting back into the game.
Forest ran out deserving winners and go into the hat for the third round draw.
Manager Trevor Mullings was gracious in defeat. He said: "I'm disappointed with our performance today after excellent displays at the end of last year.
"Today we were beaten by a much more determined side that wanted to work for each other."
Team: Hall, Large, Palin, Rimmer, McQuilkin (Williams), Perks, Berry, Timmins-Ray, Quick (Hall), Hewitt, Selmes.

Comments: The best running shoes I've ever have! Recommended by a friend
From: Anonymous. July 9th 2014
Comments: Be forewarned, it's virtually impossible to run less than 10 miles in Peg 30's, they feel that good. Best of all worlds, you can get up on your toes and rock and roll, or ease back on that heel and cruise. Either way, you'll have to remind yourself that you ran 10 miles earlier in the day, because your legs certainly won't give it away...
From: Arturo, New York, USA. June 2nd 2014
Comments: Always preferred NB shoes, trying the Nike Pegasus 30. Little different feel, very comfortable, softer landing. Like the look, so far so good!
From: Kurt, Pawling, NY, USA. May 5th 2014
Comments: Still the best. Sure other shoes are lighter, lower drop, flashier...but guess which shoe I come back to time-and-time again? The Peg 30!!! I'll always have a Pegasus in my rotation because they offer the best combination of cushioning, lightweight, and value.
From: David, Ashburn, VA, USA. April 30th 2014
Comments: I have 4 pairs of the 29's, all with slightly over 500 miles on them and still going strong. Just bought the Oregon project 30's, and they don't feel much different, though maybe a tad tighter in the toe box. Great great shoes, I've been injury free for years, what a change from running in Brooks, Asics, and Adidas when it seemed like I was injured all the time. Love Nike, can't wait for the 31.
From: Mike, Loudoun, VA, USA 4/4/14
Comments: I have shied away from Nike shoes in the past. Not sure why. Had more to do with some type of protest of their size in the marketplace. Coming back from an injury I wanted a shoe with a bit more cushioning and I picked the Pegasus over some other options. Namely, due to positive reviews, simple design, and the Oregon Project color way. I have been very impressed with the shoe. It is a simple shoe. Shoe is good on long easy runs and is good at faster paces. The only fault I can find is that the laces are a little short.
From: Nathan, Greenville, NC, USA. 3/13/14
Comments: Comments: best shoe i have ever ran in. Great cushioning while still retaining the lightweight feel. I 100% recommend buying the Nike pegasus 30, you will not regret it.
From: Jordan, boston
Comments: Great shoe. I have finally found the shoe that I will keep buying from Running warehouse. I am currently running in Pegasus 30s and have two new pairs under my bed. Great cushioning yet they don't force you to heel-strike so no problem for mid-foot strikers. Amazing shoe for long runs and I feel that the midsole gets more responsive as you pick up the pace. look great on feet as well. Thank you Nike and Running Warehouse for the excellent services.
From: Hector, Chicago, IL

I got FantasyFootball Weekly's magazine today, so I thought I would let everyone know what they rank our guys...
Chad is ranked as the 13th best QB, Curtis as the 12th best RB, Coles as the 28th and McCareins as the 32nd best receivers, Jolley as the 16th best TE, Nugent as the 13th best kicker, and our defense was rated 10th.
We all know Coles got the shaft, but other than that I think it is mostly fair judgements. I don't really agree, but I can understand where people could have Chad and Curtis down the lists a bit.
And the whole magazine refers to Vick as Ron Mexico. I mean that almost literally, I've only seen his real name once. (by the way, he is rated as the 14th best QB, although he didn't get drafted in their mock draft until the fourth from teh last pick)

|In response to Re: Well pump
: : : : : My well pump recently went out {after 22 years} and when i replaced it i could not find a 1/3hp 10 gpm pump anywhere. I installed a 3/4hp 10 gpm and now the pump turns on/off 3-4 times when i flush a toilet. I turned the breaker off to the pump and ran all the pressure out of the fawcett. I then measured the PSI on the 15 gallon "pre-charge" pressure tank = 0 psi. The side of the tank said "precharged to 30 psi" so i pumped it up to 30 psi and threw the breaker back on. She pumped back up 50psi on the gauge. The pump still comes on/off 2 times while flushing a toilet. The pressure switch is set fo 30psi on 50 psi off. My question is... Why when i flush a 1.6 gpf toilet does the pump need to come on. Should'nt a 15 gallon tank suffice at least a few flush's? Thank you in advance for you reply and time.
: : : : The pressure tank usually only holds 25-30 % of the tanks rating. Example; A 20 gallon tank will allow approx.5-6 gallons of water to enter it. A "low flush toilet (1.6 gallon should flush roughly 3-4 times with-out the pump kicking in with a FULL tank.. It seems like an adjustment to the Bladder pressure is required. First ,drain the tank completely (Pump power off),then check what the bladder psi is. Put air in until it is 2 psi below the cut-in pressure. Let us know how you make out. Hube
: : : Wow. thsnks for the fast reply!!! The marking on the square D pressure switch say 30 on 50 off so i adjusted the precharge as you prescribed from 30 psi to 28 psi. Now the pump kicks on during the 2nd flush{fill up}. Heres my big theory,,, (uh-ohhh)----> even though the switch says it kicks in at 30 psi... according to the gauge it really kicks in around 26 psi. Should i drop the pressure down to 24 psi? I'm not trying to sound lazy but it took me approx 25,0000 pumps with an old bicycle pump to reach 30psi. AGAIN,,,, thank you very much for your advice.

So cute but too narrow!
"I really love these shoes, but I just couldn't stand to walk in them for more than 10 minutes. They are supposed to be medium width but they are quite narrow. I also went with a half size up, since a previous reviewer recommended it."

Very Cute Shoe But...
"If your foot runs wide in the slightest bit, order a half size larger or more! I usually get away with an 8 1/2 but my feet would have been happier in a 9 with this shoe. I'm going to try to widen them with my handy dandy shoe stretchers! Wish me luck!"

Runs narrow.
"I wouldn't say I have wide feet, but my small toe was being rubbed up against the side pretty badly to where it was very red *and* sore by the end of the day. They are a tad narrow. I'm hoping I can break them in more by wearing thick socks and walking around in them."

Michael G. Caty, MD, MMM, is the Interim Chair, Department of Surgery, Yale School of Medicine, Robert Pritzker Professor of Surgery, and Chief of the Section of Pediatric Surgery in the Department of Surgery. He also serves as the Trauma Medical Director and Surgeon-in-Chief of the Yale-New Haven Children's Hospital. Board certified in both pediatric and general surgery, Dr. Caty's clinical interests include neonatal surgery, thoracic surgery, intestinal motility disorders, pediatric surgical oncology, pediatric laparoscopy, and minimally invasive thoracic surgery.
As a clinician interested in research, Dr. Caty is drawn to minimally invasive surgical techniques, as well the development of an unusual imaging technique called "augmented reality," which involves creating 3-D models of organs so that the surgeon can see the insides of the organs. "It will change the way we think about surgery and diagnostics," he said. In addition, he is working on developing prototypes that will make it possible to repair esophageal atresia with an endoscopic approach.
Yale welcomed Dr. Caty in January 2012 after he spent 17 years at the Children's Hospital of Buffalo, where he was the John E. Fisher Endowed Chair of Pediatric Surgery, Chief of the Division of Pediatric Surgery, Surgeon-in-Chief, and Program Director for Pediatric Surgery. He was the driving physician leader for the planning and development of moving both the inpatient and outpatient services to the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus. While in Buffalo, he also served as Professor of Surgery and Pediatrics at the University of Buffalo School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.
Dr. Caty attended Boston College and graduated from the University of Massachusetts Medical School. He underwent his general surgery and research training at the University of Michigan, where he served as administrative chief resident and pursued a research fellowship investigating intestinal injury during ischemia and reperfusion. He finished his pediatric surgery residency at Children's Hospital of Boston and Harvard Medical School, where he served as chief resident. He obtained a master's degree in Medical Management in the Heinz School of Public Health at Carnegie Mellon University in 2010.
Dr. Caty is a member of the American College of Surgeons, American Pediatric Surgical Association, American Academy of Pediatrics, Association for Academic Surgery, Society of University Surgeons, and many others. He has also been inducted into the American Surgical Association, the oldest and most exclusive surgical society in the United States.
For eight years, Dr. Caty has been named on The Best Doctors in America® List, which represents the top 5 percent of doctors in the country. In 2012 and 2013, Dr. Caty was named among New York Magazine's best doctors list. In 2009, he received the Kaleida Health Spirit Award, and in 2005 Dr. Caty was awarded the Promising Inventor Award from The Research Foundation of the State University of New York at Buffalo.
Dr. Caty has contributed over 130 articles and chapters to pediatric surgical literature and is the editor of the multi-author textbook, Complications in Pediatric Surgery. He has been involved in the leadership of several pediatric surgical societies, including serving as President of the Pediatric Surgery Biology Club, Chair of the Organization of Children's Hospital Surgeons-in-Chief, and Chair of the Surgical Section of the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Affinities are Fire, Lightning, Wind, Earth & Water

Deidara - Earth (seemed to only have 1 affinity)
Naruto - Wind (like deidara only 1)
Sasuke - Fire & Lightning
Kakashi - Lightning & Water (i noticed he uses high level water jutsus in some of his battles)
Gai - Earth (he's built like a rock lol)
Neji - Wind (he has that hadouken like move)

This A list band made a recent surprise appearance
. The supposedly sober singer of the band was anything but. Hopefully they are not planning on touring soon because he won't live through it.
Green Day?ReplyCancel
I hope not Steve Tyler and AerosmithReplyCancel
Green Day is a better guess for the ranking, I hope the wee Billy is doing bettetReplyCancel
Not Green Day! Waaaaaaa.ReplyCancel
No clue but Morning everyone!ReplyCancel
somebody that played SXSW —Soundgarden did. Can't stand them but they are A list right?ReplyCancel
Hey Steamy! Hey Derek! How are you guys and everyone else??
Derek, when's your date, fella??ReplyCancel
Not SXSW, Sydney
Derek, how can you not stand SOUNDGARDEN???ReplyCancel
hey lady—this evening. kinda hung but feelin better. Nothing better than Orange Crush and some Jann Arden to get me through the day! lolllReplyCancel
@TTM just dont like their songs in particular. I love Pearl Jam, Nirvana etc. but never Soundgarden…I am still trying to figure out Google Circles! LOL its just me Bee and now Sherry (yay!) lolReplyCancel
Book club!ReplyCancel
Google Circle is hard y'all.ReplyCancel
@Derek Protein, protein and more protein. Eggs, or cheeseburger always gives me the cure!ReplyCancel
Soundgarden was my favorite. Used to run in to Nirvana before they hit it big and everyone but Grohl were really nice. Will never forget getting lunch at the Broadway Grill while Kurt was ordering breakfast and getting bitched ouht by Courtney for ordering bacon.
After making him call the waiter back to cancel the order for bacon, a shotgun seemed the only answer. If it were me I'd have aimed at her instead….
I love Soundgarden, and Chris Cornell's solo stuff was great too (Can't Change Me); and I effing LOVED Audioslave's first album. I can't understand how you could not. Derek! Splain it!
Queen, what, everyone BUT Dave Grohl?? What do you mean?
Steamy, first book club tomorrow, woot woot!ReplyCancel
@QueenG, was it bacon- your health or bacon- vegetarian eat a face? Just curious… :-\ReplyCancel
@Reno—I wish I had an appetite after drinking–you people are lucky! I am force feeding myself some toast. and took a protein vitamin.
@Queen–wow I love all that stuff–you are lucky! I met Courtney and Melisa Auf DuMaur once after a Hole show–they were nice and talked some serious smack about Winona Ryder! lol. Like Mean Girls in a band…
TTM–I think I was really young when the Super Unknown album came out and the local Radio here plays Black Hole Sun waaay too much for my liking..ReplyCancel
To the Canadian Contingent O T, does anyone else get the ad for Mod shoes on the posts? Their slogan is " aboot " sale. I think y'all have skewed the ad sale..:-DReplyCancel
@Steam—no but they really want me to buy a pair of lady sandals covered in daisies..ReplyCancel
I was with friends and we went to the bar at the top of the Space Needle (sadly, no more). They showed up and sat at the next table. Tiny space. We hung out for a bit. Maybe it was a bad day but Grohl looked like he wanted to be anywhere but there and when he spoke it was one or two words. Terse. Not a happy guy. Kris was oddly charming in a nerdish way. No CL so Mr. C seemed more relaxed. Could a lso have been the drugs.ReplyCancel
Love Audioslave. Never was much love for Soundgarden but those were some of the best concerts I ever went to. And a dear friend who passed loved them a lot so I guess there's a sentimental attachment.ReplyCancel
Kings of Leon. Caleb followel- has been shipped off to rehab twice.ReplyCancel
@Sugarbread–I saw Kings of Leon play last month–they are on tour.
@Queen—-when I picture the Seatle music scene to be just like when they would go to shows in the movie Singles. I am fortunate to have seen some great bands in small venues before they made it big. Something I really cherish!ReplyCancel
@Derek – What did they say about Winona?ReplyCancel
Thanks, katy, I will! I love his stuff, his voice is insaneReplyCancel
I'm sorry to hear that, Queen.
I also picture Seattle to be exactly like Singles, and I LOVE that movie. No disbusing us of this notion, Queen!ReplyCancel
That she is crazy and would date every indie musician under the sun but as soon as the guys would be asked about it and they stated yes I am dating her she would freak-out-break up with them-yet stalk and do things like call them 100 times and hang-up. Meanwhile it was her that would get her publicist to set her up with the guys in the first place.The name Ryan Adams was an example…ReplyCancel
I was 15 when I met them and my best friend was/is obsessed with WR and that was the first question to come out his mouth. I was kinda embarrassed but I love ol Wino too so it was good gossip and surreal at the time. Those girls like to gossip!ReplyCancel
Never saw Singles. Or Sleepless. Did see the Elvis movie at Seattle world s fair.
Okay time for Werther opera broadcast. Later TTM , Derek.
That's awesome, Derek. Never been a Wino fan.
Have fun, Queen!!
LowKey, what??? It's like I don't even KNOW you!ReplyCancel
Thanks, Derek. Wino seems to be super secretive about her relationships. I think the whole media frenzy with Depp scarred her for life.ReplyCancel
@Star—yeah I do LOVE many of of her movies do. It was Melissa that did most of the talking FTR –Courtney was in lala land and sorta just popped in mid-thru conversation and called her a cunt lol –I wanted to chat more with Court but she had NO interest and was very scaryReplyCancel
Love Pearl Jam! I used to kick it with one of Vedder's brothers back in the day. That whole family has done a lot of really great charitable workReplyCancel
@Lady—thats awesome! Yeah they are rad.ReplyCancel
Awesome story, Queen! Thanks for sharing! There are a lot of people that think Love was literally involved in the shooting. If I remember well, I think even Love's dad thought so. Such a tragedyReplyCancel
How can you like PJ and not Soundgarden?
Haven't heard Temple of the Dog?
Hunger Strike
Say Hello To Heaven
@Derek: Your story is sooo much better! Courtney is INSANE! I have friends who met her at the Comedy Central Roast taping, where she was an incoherent shit show. But I have friends who used to work at the House of Blues, and she's scared some of them for life. I'd be too afraid to approach her, based off of some accounts of these run-ins. Court's drug regimen and stance is on par with Exene but Exene isn't a violent psychopathReplyCancel
It was some common knowledge about Winona, aka "Wanna Ride Her", that she was very pushy about musicians, especially musicians into a steady relationship. She had her eyes on Beck for years. When, a decade ago, he broke up with his girlfriend, because she had cheated on him, she phoned him minutes after she heard about it. They dated for something like two weeks, but it seems that Beck, like many others, had issues with her kind of possessiveness and craziness. The stuff about keeping it a secret Derek mentions may be a good explanation. I had heard about her various dalliances with Ryan Adams, Adam Duritz and a few others.
She also tried to have an affair with Jakob Dylan for years.
Yeah, I miss that kind of spontaneous collaboration (Santana captured the same in the late 90's) AJ.
It was a wonderful tribute to their friend.
@Lady—yeah especially being so young when I met her! SCARY lol—we won a radio contest and it was awesome yet terrifying. Melissa was REALLY nice though. She approached us as we stood in the corner awkwardly. I still have an old photo with her arm around us. So sweet.
@Angela–yeah very bizzare cause I think she is so beautiful..
Singles IS seattleReplyCancel
Queen anne hill is the bestReplyCancel
Maybe Dave was just having a bad day…. QueenAnne's statement is seriously the first ever I have heard about Dave not being nice.
I never liked Nirvana but am all about the Foo Fighters. And STP was the shit right around the time they did unplugged and Scott Weiland was gorgeous. Pearl Jam was great for the fist 2 albums and then they got all righteous.
The Singles Soundtrack is still in my top 5 favorite albums EVER.ReplyCancel
I <3 u, Violet. We can be queens of the pointless comments!ReplyCancel
This is BJ Armstrong. So sad. Love him. Green Day actually hasn't played in awhile but I think Enty is referring to the SXSW set of their side project, the Foxboro Hot Tubs.
Billie Joe's drugs of choice are booze and benzodiazepines (namely Klonopin) but I've heard he also likes pain pills. Booze and benzos are a rough scene. Puts the person in a much more severe blackout. So sad. Hope whoever this is gets betterReplyCancel
My bad, green day have played recently but that doesn't change anything about the answer; still BJAReplyCancel
Kinda O/T…
Even if I was not a fan of Hole, it would be hard for me to buy into the insinuations made by Enty & many others that Courtney–no matter what demons have plagued her since childhood (& us in her adulthood)–was directly or indirectly responsible for her husband's death.
Aside from Love's frequent paranoiac behavior & the Batsh*t Crazy thing, has anyone suggested a convincing motive that would drive her to pick up a shotgun & blast Cobain's head off?
As for her dad, if you know anything of Courtney's terrific parents–his creepy speculations–at the very best are on a par with the credibility of most Michael or Dina Lohan public statements about their eldest daughter.ReplyCancel
I can't with the SG haters- Chris and co love toronto and I haven't missed an SG or CC acoustic show in the last three years.
Chris puts in an amazing solo performance- anyone who is a fan of his voice must catch one.ReplyCancel
Love AIC and and STP as well- shame that Scott is such a mess.ReplyCancel

Adding MachinesFull-Keyboard - Other
In the early twentieth century a variety of companies manufactured full keyboard adding machines that competed with the products of Felt & Tarrant and of Burroughs. Their inventors often had ties to one of the older companies, and competition was fierce. For example, Joseph A.V. Turck (1870-1956) of Providence, Rhode Island, took out patents for a key-driven adding machine in 1899 and 1901. The Mechanical Accountant, as he named the machine, was produced in Providence into the 1920s. However, Turck chose to leave Providence Mfg and Tool Company, the makers of the Mechanical Accountant, to take a position at Felt & Tarrant. He would spend the rest of his career there.
The inventors of two other adding machines, William H. Pike and Frank S. Rinsche, both worked at American Arithmometer Company in St. Louis for a time. Pike went on to invent the Pike adding machine, which was produced in New Jersey from 1904 onward. Rinsche joined with others to form the Universal Accountant Machine Company of St. Louis. Burroughs soon acquired the rights to both the Pike and the Universal machines, and both Pike and Rinsche returned to the company.
The inventor Charles Wales also spent a brief time at Burroughs, although he is better remembered as the inventor of the Wales and the later Federal adding machines. Both offered visible printing of results, unlike the first Burroughs machines. The Wales machine attracted the attention of Ralph C. Allen, who worked at Burroughs from 1904 until he went into business for himself in 1924. Allen first imported calculating machines from Europe. In 1926, he arranged for the Allen Corporation to purchase the Wales Adding Machine Company, and soon thereafter the Peters-Morse Company, to form Allen-Wales Corporation. Allen-Wales, in turn, was acquired by National Cash Register Company in 1944.
During the 1920s and early 1930s, several other inventors saw the adding machines they had devised come to market. O.D. Johantagen, who had patented several machines, saw his Victor Adding Machine begin to sell in 1920. Two years later, the company was taken over by Chicago grocer Carl Buehler, whose family managed the firm successfully for many years, eventually merging with Felt & Tarrant. Glenn J. Barrett, who had worked on the Barrett adding machine before World War I, patented the much lighter Portable. This machine sold from 1922. It was manufactured by Corona, which took over sales and renamed the machine in 1926. The Barrett also remained in production, made by the Lanston Monotype Company of Philadelphia from about 1928. An electric version sold from the late 1930s. Not all inventors lived to see their machine produced. Clyde Gardner, who had worked at Pike and at Burroughs, died shortly after establishing the Gardner Adding Machine Company in 1923. His machine did make it into production. Patent rights eventually were acquired by the Monroe Calculating Machine Company.
A few adding machines made overseas reached the United States. These included a Swiss machine similar to the Comptometer known as the Direct and a much later Italian copy of the Comptometer called the Addicalco. The German Torpedo, introduced in 1931, had a more distinctive keyboard. Comptometer operators had long been trained to use only the lower half of the keyboard, as it was faster to push, say, the 4 and then the 5 key than to reach up the hand to the 9 key. The Torpedo only had keys from 1 to 5 in each column. The Sumlock, a machine made in Britain by Bell Punch Company, was specifically designed for British currency but collected by the Burroughs Patent Department.

Runs short and wide, but nice-looking
"I'm usually an 8.5 B or 9 A, so European size 39 shoes usually fit me perfectly. These, in a 39, were significantly too short and too wide for me. I would have needed at least a 39.5, possibly a 40, for the right length, and the shoes were already too wide at a 39. If they fit you though (so maybe if you have average width or slightly wide feet, and order a half size up for length), they will probably look great. The gold line is really nice, as is the cut on the top of the bootie."

Runs short
"I love this shoe and they look so cute. I got them to match with my black dress and they make the outfit gorgeous. But they run a bit short and I would recommend half size bigger than your size. I wear size 7 and couldn't zip it up."

Buy them!
"The picture does not do this shoe justice! They are so beautiful. Keep in mind GZ shoes do run very narrow, but they are such quality leather a shoe stretcher will fix it in no time."

I love these suede booties
"Buy them. You are not going to find a better deal anywhere.My normal size is 7.5 (37.5) and I had to go up to 8, so they do run a little narrow/short, but when you get the right size, they are too comfy."
