Correspondence to: Brian J. Lipworth, MD, Asthma and Allergy Research Group, Department of Clinical Pharmacology & Therapeutics, Ninewells Hospital and Medical School, University of Dundee, Dundee DDI 95Y, Scotland; e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
To the Editor:
I read with interest the recent articles in CHEST
(August 2000) by Nathan et al1and ZuWallack et
al,2 who reported on the efficacy and safety of the
fluticasone propionate multidose dry-powder Diskus inhaler (Glaxo
Wellcome; Research Triangle Park, NC) in patients with moderate asthma.
Both studies1–2 concluded that fluticasone propionate in
doses up to 500 μg/d exhibited no significant systemic effects
compared with placebo on "morning" plasma cortisol before and after
cosyntropin stimulation.
These conclusions however ought to be interpretated with extreme
caution because of the sensitivity of the end points that were measured
in both studies. The exact timing for measurement of morning and
stimulated plasma cortisol is not given in either study, which is
crucial because of the known insensitivity of a spot morning cortisol
value within a variable sample window (eg, 8 am
to 10 am), as is commonly the case in these type of
multicenter studies.3 Moreover, the 250-μg dose of
cosyntropin is well recognized to represent a supraphysiologic dose and
is much less sensitive than, for example, a physiologic 1-μg
Consequently, one must assume that these types of studies are set up in
order not to detect significant systemic adverse effects using
insensitive end points. This is in contrast to a previous
study4in asthmatic patients where fluticasone propionate
dry powder in a dose of 500 μg/d produced significant suppression
(p < 0.01) of 24-h urinary cortisol excretion amounting to a 33%
reduction, along with a 70% reduction (p < 0.01) in peripheral
blood lymphocyte glucocorticoid messenger RNA levels—both consistent
with a significant degree of detectable systemic bioactivity. In
another study,5 also in asthmatic patients, fluticasone
produced a 40% suppression of overnight urinary cortisol/creatinine
It is therefore important to appreciate the appropriate use of
sensitive tests of hypothalmic-pituitary-adrenal–axis suppression when
evaluating exaggerated claims of no detectable systemic effects with
inhaled corticosteroid therapy.
We thank Dr. Lipworth for his interest in our
articles,1–2 although we note that his comments and
queries are very similar to those he has made regarding earlier
publications,3–4 and we believe that these queries were
comprehensively answered.5–6 We thank you for the
opportunity to provide the following response.
With regard to Dr. Lipworth's comments on morning cortisol values,
blood samples were collected for these measurements in a narrow time
window, between 8 am and 10 am. The safety
conclusions stated in our articles were based mainly on the stimulated
cortisol results.
The 250-μg cosyntropin test was the preferred test for assessing
hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)-axis function at the time this
study was planned. This point was previously addressed.5–6
We do not disagree that there is now more evidence that a lower dose of
cosyntropin is more sensitive; however, the clinical relevance of small
effects detectable with a more sensitive test has not yet been
validated. In addition, a previous study7 has demonstrated
that the 250-μg cosyntropin test is sensitive enough to differentiate
between two inhaled corticosteroids and oral prednisone, which has
well-defined clinical side effects; this point has been discussed
previously by Dr. Li in his response to Dr. Lipworth.6
In our studies,1–2 blood samples were collected 30
to 60 min after injections of cosyntropin. These poststimulation
cortisol measurements indicated that there were no clinically
relevant differences between the fluticasone propionate (FP) dosage
groups and placebo in response to cosyntropin. These results are
similar to those reported by Li et al,7 who measured both
peak plasma cortisol levels and 8-h cortisol area under curve (AUC)
values. Li et al5 found that both peak plasma and 8-h AUC
cortisol data were sensitive measures of HPA-axis function, since both
measures detected differences between the inhaled corticosteroids (FP
at 88 μg or 220 μg bid and triamcinolone acetonide at 200 μg qid
or 400 μg bid) and between the inhaled corticosteroids and oral
prednisone (10 mg qd). However, no differences were noted between the
two FP dosage groups with regard to poststimulation AUC or peak plasma
data. These results support the safety of inhaled corticosteroids at
recommended dosages and are consistent with current asthma treatment
guidelines, which emphasize the benefit of using inhaled steroids,
rather than oral steroids, as the anti-inflammatory treatment of choice
for maintenance therapy in asthma. This point has been reinforced
several times before in correspondence with Dr.
Regarding the data on human lymphocyte messenger RNA (mRNA)
mentioned by Dr. Lipworth,9 we find this data interesting
but would question the relevance at this point in time. For example,
while it is accepted that growth may be a more sensitive maker of
corticosteroid exposure than HPA-axis function in children, it is not
known at this time whether mRNA data may be extrapolated to clinically
relevant effects. While more markers that may prove useful in the
future are being explored, bone mineral density is relevant and
clinically meaningful. A 2-year study in asthmatics looking at the
effect of FP on bone mineral density failed to reveal any major safety
concerns.8 With regard to Dr. Lipworth's reference to his
own work,10which showed a 40% suppression of overnight
urinary cortisol/creatinine excretion, this parameter is an indirect
measurement that is dissimilar from that used by other workers
and does not appear to be highly predictive of corticosteroid systemic
exposure.11–13 Furthermore, the conclusions drawn from
these results are divergent from, and disagree with, conclusions drawn
from a large body of clinical data.7–8,14–17
In summary, the primary objective of the two studies1–2 in
question was to compare the efficacy of various FP dosage
regimens, with the end goal of determining the lowest dosage of FP
required for the treatment of persistent asthma. We believe that the
results of these studies support the efficacy and safety of FP and
agree with current National Institutes of Health guidelines, which
recommend the use of inhaled corticosteroids as first-line treatment
for persistent asthma.

"The marketing men probably decided that the word supercritical would frighten the general public," says Dr Steve Howdle, a research chemist at Nottingham University. "But carbon dioxide is far healthier than the dry cleaning solvents which were once used instead."
Howdle and his colleagues are examining what happens when carbon dioxide is compressed to about 70 times normal atmospheric pressure. Under those conditions it becomes "supercritical" and the gas takes on some of the properties of a liquid. It can then be used as a solvent to carry out chemical reactions and make new materials. As an alternative to harmful organic compounds like carbon tetrachloride, it has potential applications in a range of industrial processes. Extracting the caffeine out of coffee beans is one of the first to be used on a commercial scale, but there are many others in the pipeline.
The big advantage of carbon dioxide is that when the taps on a pressure vessel are opened it changes back into a gas and floats harmlessly away, leaving behind a clean, dry product. When liquid organic solvents are used a small residue always remains. The characteristic smell of a new car is caused by the solvents used in making the plastic trimmings. The residue may be harmful to human health and the ozone layer.
Using supercritical carbon dioxide does not contribute to the Greenhouse effect, and much of the gas used is a natural by-product of the brewing industry. In the Nottingham team there are 30 scientists looking at new applications for the technology.
Howdle became interested in this field while an undergraduate in Manchester 12 years ago. He heard a lecture on new solvents given by Martyn Poliakoff. He had been hoping to do some form of postgraduate study and went up to Professor Poliakoff after the lecture and asked for a job.
He said: "What I like about it that I am taking real problems that people are having to deal with and looking for new ways round them." As a Royal Society University research fellow, Howdle is encouraged to collaborate with scientists abroad. He is working with a group of Russian scientists in using carbon dioxide to make plastics for medical implants. Some people fitted with dental plates for false teeth, he points out, find they are unable to wear them because residues of conventional solvents can cause allergies.
Increasingly stringent legislation has led to bans on some solvents and will increase the pressure on industry to develop more environmentally friendly processes. "The challenge is not just to develop a greener process, we must also try to make it better, cheaper, easier or more controllable."Reuse content

Germany's DAX rises above the European equity gloom
* European markets hit by Scotland independence concerns
* Euro STOXX 50 falls 0.2 pct, CAC down 0.3 pct
* But Germany's DAX rises 0.1 pct, helped by trade data
* Many traders remain cautious over near term
By Sudip Kar-Gupta
LONDON, Sept 8 (Reuters) - Germany's DAX was the only major European stock market to rise on Monday, as uncertainty over a Ukraine ceasefire and Scotland's independence vote kept investors off balance.
The DAX closed up 0.1 percent higher at 9,758.03 points - still some 3 percent below a record high of 10,050.98 points reached in late June.
The German index outperformed a 0.2 percent fall on the euro zone's blue-chip Euro STOXX 50 index and a 0.3 percent retreat on France's CAC. The UK's FTSE 100 shed 0.3 percent on uncertainty over the Scottish vote.
Traders said the German stock market was propped up by data on Monday that showed a record trade surplus of 22.2 billion euros ($28.72 billion) in July. The data suggested Europe's largest economy could rebound in the third quarter after unexpectedly shrinking in the second. Continuación...

Question about 1996 Ford Explorer
Approximate cost to replace, labor plus materials.
Posted by clark_rivers on
Thanks.We were trying to figure out if we should put more money into it.
Thanks. I was leaning towards having it fixed. It is still in good running condition and looks good on the road.
your looking in the 1500, to 2000 range with head gaskets. keep in mind there are two heads and everything in the middle has to come off exhaust has to come off and the heads have to be machined as well.
need to replace head gasket on 2001 ford explorer
I would put the money into the vehicle. Do you really want to go thousands into debt to purchase another vehicle? Cheaper to fix than replace. If the vehicle is in good shape all around I would repair it. If you are going to do the work yourself it will cost lots less than the 2000. If you do the work have the heads milled and replace the stem seals and knurl the valve guides at the same time. Also check for weak or broken valve springs. Your local machine shop should do all this anyway. Good luck.

Child: Saved By A Total Stranger. I'm SPEECHLESS
No one really notices the people around them as they wait for their turn at the cash register. We're pretty much solitary units in a big world rushing to get here and there, or are we? How often do we see people stop what they're doing to come together and to work to save a human life?
The video starts with what looks like a normal day, anywhere, in any nation. But as you watch, the scene takes a disturbing change. A woman rushes in carrying a child in her arms, and she's terrified. She's totally distraught. She hands the baby to a female customer standing near the cash register and then rushes toward the back of the store.
The young woman holding the child and the man standing near her seem to be trying to figure out why the child isn't responding. People gather near her and everyone is intently trying to help, but there's something terribly wrong. Although some of the customers, possibly not knowing what to do back away while others gather near her.
A young man comes rushing toward the register. He's wide-eyed and scared as he sees the child hanging limply in the woman's arms. He presses his hands against his head in despair. The child, who's unresponsive, is his child. She doesn't seem to be responding to anything, and he feels helpless not knowing what to do. He and the other gentleman lift the child around and nothing is working…nothing is working.
Just moments before, all these people now helping his child were in a hurry to get somewhere. That's all been forgotten while they join forces to get the little one to breathe again. Groceries are scooped aside to lay the child on the counter.
A young woman hovers near the cashier's counter and the other man begins administering CPR. Slowly and steadily he's managing short-measured breaths into the little ones mouth. The father paces the floor still fearing the worst for his child.
It feels like an eternity for you the viewer and you can only imagine what the young father must be feeling. Finally the child starts to breathe. The woman near the counter caresses her head, and another stranger takes the young man around the shoulders to calm him, and show him that his little one is alive. The father grabs the stranger who saved his child's life and gives him a great hug.
The little one is still lying on the counter, but she's alive. For a few short minutes in time strangers in a grocery store stopped rushing through their day to save the life a child in distress. A father watched the miracle of kindness and knew that his little one was alive because so many people cared.

That would be fun! I'm not online with my latest file because I'm controlling world tendency. But I never got very far on NG+ with my original game so we could do that. That's at SL105 or so. My husband is on vacation this week and has been kind of hogging the console (also playing Demon's Souls) so I may not be on much. But I'll shoot you a PSN message when I think I'll be around.
In my lastest game I started as a Knight and am trying to rely more on melee and less on magic. I learned from Dark Souls to soul level focusing on stats for particular equipment, then spend souls leveling the shit out of said equipment. Things are a lot easier this time around.

Yeah, usually with a game, I'm really binary - either I love it and play it to death or within a few hours I go "meh" and abandon it. With El Shaddai I kind of debated about whether I should keep going. There are lots of good things about it, but the fighting was really a lot of work for me.

The Ghosts of Dawson
<< Previous 1

Dawson Cemetery, September, 2008, Kathy Weiser.

photographic prints and downloads
The many tragedies of Dawson, New Mexico are memorialized in this forgotten cemetery
in Colfax County.
In 1869, John Barkley Dawson came to the
Vermejo Valley looking for a place to homestead. He found it 5
1/2 miles upstream from the settlement of Colfax and paid $3,700 to
Lucien B.
Maxwell for the deed, finalizing the verbal deal with a handshake.
After settling on his land, Dawson found coal on his property. Scraping chunks of coal from the surface of his farm land, he burned
it in his stove rather than using wood. At first, his neighbors
thought he was a little crazy, but out of curiosity, several asked for
samples and were pleased at the results, so much so that Dawson began
to sell the coal to his neighbors.
Lucien B. Maxwell
sold his interest in the Maxwell Land Grant. The property was quickly sold two more times
over the next two years and in 1872 it was in the hands of a Dutch
Firm who was aggressively looking for ways to exploit the resources of
the grant. The grant owners immediately attempted to extract
rents from many of the squatters living on the grant; however, they
often had no way of knowing who was a legal owner and who was not. When they found out that the
Dawson land was heavily laced with coal,
they wanted to develop the vein and attempted to evict Dawson. Dawson was ready to fight ready to settle the matter with six-guns,
but later he consented to settling the matter in the courts. Dawson admitted that his transaction with
in 1869 was purely verbal; stating that a promise and a handshake was
the way Maxwell had always done business.
Dawson hired
an attorney and the case was tried in the fall of 1893 favoring Dawson
in their decision. The court held that the Land Grant Company
could not prove that Dawson did not own the land and the mineral
rights. And, much to the Land Grant Company's chagrin, the
courts further found that Dawson had not bought the 1,000 acres that
he had thought, but rather 20,000 acres.
Dawson and his partner, Charles Springer,
ranched the land until 1901, when he sold most of the property to the Dawson
Fuel Company for $400,000. He retained 1200 acres for himself and
continued to ranch.
The Dawson Fuel Co. was founded with the help
of Charles B. Eddy of El Paso,
Texas, a
railroad promoter. A 137-mile-long railroad was built from the mine
to Tucumcari,
New Mexico linking the spot with the Rock Island Lines. By
August 1, 1901, a crew of fifty miners was ready to work. A sawmill
was busy turning out lumber for houses, coke ovens were smoking and by the
end of that first year, Dawson was well on the way to becoming a city and
the center of the largest coal mining operation in New Mexico. Later, the company built a hundred cottages for 500 more people and
erected additional coke ovens. Off to a quick start, the town was
prosperous and growing.
Tragedy struck the first of many blows to the
new community on September 14, 1903 when fire broke out in the No. 1 Mine,
followed by several explosions. With the grace of God, 500 miners
escaped. The men worked for a week to control the fire and when it
was over three were dead.
By 1905, 124 coke ovens were belching fire and
the town was thriving with about 2000 residents. By this time
the settlement boasted a post office, a liquor store, a mercantile, a
school, a newspaper and a large hotel.
Coke Ovens, Myers Collection, NMSU
In 1906 the Phelps Dodge Corporation bought
the Dawson mines and, sparing no expense, determined to make Dawson
a model city and the ideal company town. The company built spacious homes
for its miners, supplied with water from the company's water system.
also built a four-story brick building which housed the Phelps Dodge
Mercantile Department Store which sold virtually anything the townsfolk
might need -- food, clothing, shoes, hardware, furniture, drugs, jewelry,
baked goods and ice from its own plant. A modern hospital was
built which maintained a staff of five doctors and was complete with a
laboratory, surgery and x-ray equipment. For their leisure time, the
miners enjoyed the use of the company built movie theater, swimming pool,
bowling alley, baseball park, pool hall, golf course, lodge hall, and even
an opera house. Phelps Dodge also supported two churches, one
Catholic and one Protestant. Children attended either the Central
Elementary School in downtown Dawson or the Douglas Elementary School on
Capitan Hill. A large high school building was built that eventually
employed 40 teachers and their athletic teams won many state
championships. The company also built a steam-powered electric
plant, which powered not only Dawson, but also the nearby towns of
Walsenburg, Colorado, and Raton. Providing good-paying jobs for the
residents, the extra features of the company town helped keep the
employment stable and under the new management Dawson's population grew
quickly to 3,500.
The residents were well aware that mining was
a dangerous business -- the best of coal mines being squalid, hot, dark
holes permeated with black dust. Even if the miners escaped the constant
dangers of cave-ins and explosions, their life expectancy was sharply
reduced by "black lung" and other affects of the sooty mine air. From time to time a miner would fall into a pit or die in the collapse of
a seam, and the company built cemetery slowly began to fill.
became a mecca for miners from all over the world with immigrants
arriving from Italy, China, Poland, Germany, Greece, Britain, Finland,
Sweden, and Mexico. The miners worked together to dig the
coal that fueled an area equal to 1/6 of the United States and
grew into a company town of about 9,000.
Phelps Dodge strove to make the mines as safe as possible. They
did such a good job with Stag Canyon Mine No. 2 that it attracted the
eyes of coal-mining experts who, in 1913, described it as "the highest
achievement in modern equipment and safety appliances that exists in
the world." The
New Mexico
Inspector of Mines completed two days of inspection of the
pits on October 20, 1913 and reported that Stag Canyon Mine No. 2 was
totally "free from traces of gas, and in splendid general condition."
was doomed to suffer a series of tragedies that shadowed its history
to the end. During this period of abundance and prosperity
suffered its worst catastrophe on Wednesday, October 22, 1913, only two
days after the mine's inspection. The morning dawned bright and
clear and 284 miners reported to work at Stag Canyon Mine No. 2. Work went on as usual until a little after three p.m. when the mine
was rocked by a huge explosion that sent a tongue of fire 100 feet out
of the tunnel mouth shaking the homes in
two miles away.
Relief and disaster crews were rushed from
neighboring towns. Phelps Dodge sent a trainload of doctors,
nurses and medical supplies up from El Paso and striking miners in
ceased picketing and offered to form rescue teams. Working
around the clock, rows of bodies were brought to the surface. The distraught wives and family members clogged and impeded the
operations around the mouth of the mine.
Only 23 of the 286 men working in the mine
were found alive. Two of the rescuers were themselves killed by
falling boulders in the shaft. Mass funerals were conducted for the
victims and row upon row of graves dug, making it necessary to extend
the cemetery far up the hill. The cemetery was marked by white
iron crosses and the burials continued for weeks. It was the
second worst mine disaster of the century.
Investigators determined that the explosion had been caused by an
overcharged blast in a dusty pillar section of the mine.
Dynamite, not a permitted explosive, was being used. The Bureau of
Mines allowed certain types of explosives, but blasting was to be
conducted only when all miners were evacuated and water sprays were to be
used to settle the coal dust. These rules had obviously been
Safety measures were heavily increased
after the disastrous explosion and subsequent accidents were comparatively
minor with few fatalities. The mining continued and in 1918, the
Dawson mines
reached their peak production of over four million tons of coal.

Canadian dollar falls on oil, economic concerns
By John McCrank
TORONTO (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar fell nearly one percent against the U.S. dollar on Thursday, weakened by softer oil prices and concerns over the health of the economy.
Domestic bond prices followed the U.S. market higher.
At 9:10 a.m., the Canadian dollar was at C$1.0169 to the U.S. dollar, or 98.33 U.S. cents, down from C$1.0072 to the U.S. dollar, or 99.29 U.S. cents, at Wednesday's close.
The market is thinner than usual as many overseas markets are closed for the May Day holiday.
"We have slightly softer oil prices this morning, but we are still stuck in the trading range, so I don't foresee Canada selling off too much from here," said Steve Butler, director of foreign exchange at Scotia Capital.
The price of oil often influences the direction of Canada's currency as it is a major Canadian export.
Butler said the market is also starting to wonder how much of the weakness from the U.S. economic downturn is spilling over into Canada.
Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney repeated to a parliamentary committee on Wednesday that Canada will likely need to add further monetary stimulus, but that it will depend on the evolution of the global economy and domestic demand. Continued...

Trading Forex: Jump In Or Respect The Trend?
As part of an educational series on Forex trading TheLFB-Forex.com Trade Team reguarly post information that tries to engage retail traders in defining what really makes the market, and forex traders tick.
Forex traders are blessed with a market that has specific drivers, a handful of pairs to chose from, and is a market of necessity, not greed. Forex is the oil that allows the cogs of global trade to turn, and therefore when the main drivers of Forex valuations change, (interest rates, business cycles, economic growth, and commodity values), the US$ value changes to suit. It is a fairly easy market to read, but still many chose to look so hard at charts and cross-over's on a minute by minute basis that they miss a very simple fact; forex Trade Desks are using currencies as way to hedge equity and commodity positions, and as a way to hedge forward interest rate commitments TheLFB-Forex.com Trade Team said.
Trade desks are mainly reactive to forex drivers, and it takes a lot to easily break and hold new forex ground without a main driver having changed. The noise on a 5 minute chart is not a trend, it is the general search for an area of fair value that suits both buyers and sellers of a currency pair on any given day.
Yes, the news reflected in the charts, eventually, but do not look too hard on too low a time-frame at the tiniest of detail; this is a market that runs on need, not greed. Always keep an eye on that 4 Hour trend, and try to keep one ear out for where the dollar index and equity markets are headed. Keeping an eye on the big-picture chart and a fundamental dollar direction from equity market trade is hard when leveraged at 100:1, the need to jump in for some is unbearable, their 'fear of loss of potential gain' overwhelms them. The really hard part for most is controlling leverage and keeping available margin in check so that those small time-frame moves do not whipsaw the best laid plans when they jump in too soon following too low a time-frame signal that is against the 4 hour trend.
The hard part however is not in being able to read the markets or the charts, it is controlling expectancy and controlling risk, the Trade Team say. The easy part is noticing on a given day, for example, that global equities are lost, that U.S. Futures numbers are in the red, and then understanding that equates to a positive Usd against the high yielding currencies and a negative Usd/Jpy. That in turn equates to the other Yen cross pairs going lower, but those lower moves being contained by each major currency's moves against the Usd themselves. (Usd/Jpy x Eur/Usd = Eur/Jpy % value). Having the information is great, knowing the likely impact of it is not that hard, but containing enthusiasm to jump-in is tough for most retail traders.
The intra-day swings and cycles, and those 0.0001c moves that equate to one dollar get too much of most trader's attention. Make sure to contain any risk to between 1% of the account balance at any one time, and make sure that you have a plan. All-in-all expect to see some flat days that whipsaw it tight ranges, or side-wind into nothing as Wall Street meanders through its day. Professional traders have a plan, do not over-leverage their account, look at the daily and 4 hour charts for market direction, accept failure as a part of the work at hand, understand the drivers of the dollar pairs, and do not jump in because of the fear of loss.
Trade the 4 hour trend, and look to the 5 minute chart only for near-term entry signals in the direction of the bigger chart momentum. Do not be a jumper-inner.

ABOARD THE COAST GUARD CUTTER TYR (AP) – The crew was about to dig into dinner when word of the "ghost ship" came through: a freighter hurtling out of control toward Italy with no crew – and hundreds of Syrians as cargo.
The cattle freighter – its animal pens crammed with families – was on a collision course with the Italian coast, and the refugee who had phoned authorities from on board said the cabin's controls were jammed. The Tyr changed course and set off on a race against time.
The rescue operation by the Icelandic cutter Tyr was one of the most perilous in a string of high-seas dramas that point to a new modus operandi among smugglers who send migrants across the Mediterranean. Gangs buy scrapyard-bound cargo ships over the Internet and pack them with Syrians willing to pay top dollar to flee their ravaged homeland. The ships are then pointed toward Europe and abandoned, the migrants' fate hanging between shipwreck and rescue.
Until recently, most migrants paid several hundred dollars for a trip aboard an old fishing boat, dinghy or speedboat. Hundreds of men, women and children perish every year in those voyages when their unseaworthy vessels capsize in stormy seas.
The war in Syria, which has driven more than 3 million people into flight, has offered a new, lucrative opportunity for smugglers. Comparatively well-off refugees are able to pay higher prices for passage on bigger, safer ships from the far eastern Mediterranean directly to Italy, from where they then cross overland to central and northern European countries.
Many of those Syrians are willing to pay $4,000-$8,000 for a place on board a seaworthy cargo ship. For the gangs, that means that even if they lose a cargo ship that cost them a half-million dollars they can still earn millions of dollars in profit in a single trip.
Buying a cargo ship is a lot easier and cheaper than it used to be. A crisis in merchant shipping has left a glut of cargo ships on the market, with low demand depressing prices and making an aging vessel particularly affordable to criminal gangs, said a Greek merchant marine ministry official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak on the record.
The EU border agency Frontex says about 15 cargo ships smuggling asylum-seekers have tried to reach Europe since August. Frontex spokeswoman Izabella Cooper said one vessel that arrived in Italy recently appeared to have been bought online from a scrapyard.
The cargo ship method is not likely to go away any time soon because of high demand. In Turkey alone, more than one million Syrians are fending for themselves without jobs or basic services – many of them doctors or lawyers who can afford to pay thousands of dollars for a cargo ship berth, said Metin Corabatir, who heads the Ankara-based Research Center on Asylum and Migration.
"We shall be seeing a lot more of these ships," Corabatir said. "These people have no future and often the only option they have is to leave. They will give everything that they have and risk their lives."
One of the smugglers' latest innovations is to select refugees with seafaring experience and put them in charge of the ship – offering them a steep discount in exchange for navigating. That means that the traffickers can remain safely ashore.
"There were no smugglers on board. There was no pilot on board. Even the crew, they weren't the crew," said Moutassem Yazbek, a Syrian who was rescued from a cargo ship by Frontex in December. "They were like me, refugees."
But when a cattle freighter named the Ezadeen put out a distress call on New Year's Eve, it didn't even have a makeshift crew of migrants.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Updates: I Hate Myself For Writing That Headline
By Steven Lloyd Wilson | Trade News | September 4, 2012 | Comments ()
By Steven Lloyd Wilson | Trade News | September 4, 2012 |
The second reason that this film is interesting is that the production has turned into an overly dramatic soap opera. Let us recap.
First, Bay decided to change the name to "Ninja Turtles" and make it gritty live action. Fans' eyes squinted. (Note, the fact that dedicated fans of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, or turtle-headers as I'm sure they call themselves, actually exist without irony is a source of joy to me in this wilderness of trade news).
Second, Bay then announced that the turtles were in fact aliens who only look like anthropomorphized overgrown turtles. This really is a critical part of his creative process. I mean, in a world where turtles can mutate and grow up to fight ninjas from a sewer lair while eating pizza and naming themselves after renaissance artists, the main barrier to suspending disbelief is that the word "turtle" in that sentence is not "alien."
Again, fans detonated. But Bay was right there to set their scuffed shells right:
"Paramount marketing changed the name. They made the title simple. The characters you all remember are exactly the same, and yes they still act like teenagers. Everything you remember, why you liked the characters, is in the movie. This script is being developed by two very smart writers, with one of the original creators of Ninja Turtles. They care VERY MUCH about making this film for the fans. Everyone on this team cares about the fans. Just give them a chance. Jonathan [Liebesman] the director, is a major fan of the whole franchise. HE'S NOT GOING TO LET YOU DOWN"
Jonathan might not let down the fans, but I think the fact that he is directing a movie called Ninja Turtles probably disappoints his mother. He changed majors from psychology for this?
Then in this June, the ultimate
bad news hit: production on the film had shut down for rewrites and the release date was pushed from late 2013 to late spring 2014. Fans were essentially indifferent to this development, which perhaps should be a hint to Paramount just how much money to sink into this project.
Finally, the latest news is that the script was leaked on line. And it is so beyond terrible that at least seventeen people have died of brain aneurysms. This script is so stupid it's like the video tape from The Ring. Michael Bay has raised hell about it, insisting that this a 2009 script that predates his work. Of course, Paramount has issued takedown notices on sites that have the leaked script, so it's hitting a nerve with someone. Fans have detonated again because it seems that the script makes Casey Jones the protagonist, while the titular turtles are mere sidekicks.
And here are a couple of choice grabs from the script, in case you needed an emetic this morning:
Says Bay of this latest disaster:
The leaked script for Ninja Turtles that different sites continue to comment on was written well before I, or anyone at Platinum Dunes, was involved with the project. That script saw the shredder a long time ago. This is tired, old news -- Wait for the movie!"
So the villain of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles script scandal is none other than Shredder? Irony just shot itself in the head.

How to Make a Pdf
Jeffy Jan 13, 2014
PDF file format is widely used among the professional of almost all the spheres. The overwhelming popularity of that file format is explained by the fact that PDF provides almost the precise display of the file. In that way you are able to see the document that you get after printing it out. On the opposite the DOC documents often don't display the outcome result especially if the font is not installed onto the computer. PDF presupposes inbuilt fonts and graphic objects providing with the saved document. PDF was designed as the outcome file format aimed to view the files before printing them out. In that way if you have to pass the printed PDF document that you haven't seen some other person you may be quite sure that its outcome characteristics are retained. Nowadays there is the whole range of the various PDF applications starting from the easiest ones like Adobe Acrobat to the complicated Adobe Illustrator. Adobe Acrobat is commonly used by the office workers who have to deal with the simple documents. Adobe Illustrator is valued by the professionals.
What software to use?
Using Adobe Acrobat you will also be able to convert the web pages in PDF but the result won't be perfect and to get the well-structured document you will have to adjust it using Adobe Illustrator. Converting the DOC file to PDF is sensible if the document is primitive and simple (or has been initially created with the help of Microsoft Word) and contains a lot of pages.
How to Make a PDF
Using Adobe Acrobat you will also be able to convert the web pages in PDF but the result won't be perfect and to get the well-structured document you will have to adjust it using Adobe Illustrator. Converting the DOC file to PDF is sensible if the document is primitive and simple (or has been initially created with the help of Microsoft Word) and contains a lot of pages.
How to Make a PDF
- To create the PDF file you will have to install Adobe Acrobat onto you computer. In that way the only thing you will need to do is to create the required document in the DOC file format, open it and click the button Adobe PDF. As a rule if the original DOC file has been created correctly (none of the elements are located beyond the margin and the text is normally formatted) there won't be any problems with the converting process. The advantages of this method are the rapid speed of the process and the high degree of compression provided by Adobe Acrobat. One of the disadvantages concerns the Word document as it is rather difficult to create a masterpiece in MS Word;
- If you need to create the PDF file that will contain two or maximum three pages of complicated text and sophisticated graphic objects you will need Adobe Illustrator. The matter is that is it practically impossible to create the complicated documents using MS Word. For example you won't be able to use the complex gradient background, the text which follows the whirled or wavy lines or the photos that are overlaid.
- First of all you need to create a file. Choose the "Letter" size of the document if its size and shape are not specified;
- Edit the content. It is important that the text could be read easily especially if the background is bright.
- Take into consideration the potential audience. That means think of the people who will read that document. If the PDF file is a leaflet or some hand-put materials you should use the photos of the maximum quality- from 150 dpi. If the PDF file will be sent vis e-mail it is better to choose 70- 100 dpi images;
- The last step is to save the document. The click on the "Save" button will open a pop up window with the file name field. Type in the name of the file and select "OK".
Things to avoid
- Don't try to make the complicated documents using MS Word. Adobe Illustrator will be much more helpful;
- Don't try to stretch the low-quality image. It is better to choose another one with higher resolution.
It may be a complicated task to make a perfect PDF file. Try to look through the works of your colleagues before you start your first project. If you are not quite sure in your professional skills start with minimalistic elegant style.

Hyderabad, Nov 19 (UNI) Andhra Pradesh Rural Development Minister G Chinna Reddy today said the State Government was taking all steps to curb the migration of poor from drought-hit Mahaboob Nagar district.
In reply to a question by MLC Dr K Nageshwar during the Question Hour, Mr Reddy said the Government has taken up afforestation programme, horticulture scheme in 25,000 acres of land to provide livelihoods to the poor.
Stating that the Government had paid Rs 125 crore as wages to the poor under Employment Guarantee schemes, he said the pending irrigation project works were also taken up to provide water to all drylands owned by the poor in the district.
Watershed development programme was also given priority to provide job opportunities, Mr Reddy said adding that the rate of migration was declined since three years as the State was receiving sufficient rains.

PRESS DIGEST- Canada - June 3
June 3 (Reuters) - The following are the top stories from selected Canadian newspapers. Reuters has not verified these stories and does not vouch for their accuracy.
** Ivanhoe Energy Inc says it is bankrupt after restructuring talks with creditors proved unsuccessful. The company had been working with Ernst & Young to reach a viable restructuring proposal and had already extended the deadline for filing a proposal by a month.(bit.ly/1Gk3DsA)
** Alberta Environment Minister Shannon Phillips said on Tuesday that the New Democratic Party government would introduce new climate-change regulations by the end of June, setting the stage for higher carbon levies on the province's oil and gas industry as it copes with the sharp downturn in commodity prices. (bit.ly/1FsPmmN)
** The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is becoming more pessimistic about Canada's growth prospects in the wake of the oil price collapse. The OECD now projects Canadian growth this year at about 1.5 percent, down sharply from 2.2 percent during its previous temperature reading in March. (bit.ly/1Mkqrrb)

At its March meeting each year, the Board considers the topline budget figures for the forthcoming financial year, and the key performance indicators to measure progress against targets.
Business update from Chief Executive – This update focused on the projected outturn for the current financial year. Income is being projected to achieve the reforecast figure of £12.5m. This will represent significant revenue growth year on year, ie £11.7m to £12.5m. Higher Education Partnership income is very close to achieving its original full year target, and could double the amount of income achieved in 2014/15. Other revenue generating areas of the business will come in close to reforecast target, ie Membership and Employers. Due to uncertainties in the FE arena, Education Partner revenue may fall just short of target.
There was brief discussion on the importance of membership development and engagement strategies, bearing in mind in particular the ongoing decline in IC membership numbers. Membership propositions should be high on the agenda. It was noted that a number of the propositions under development for Studying Affiliates, aimed at increasing the rate of conversion into full membership, will in fact be relevant for members across the grades and can therefore be rolled out more widely. IC membership development is closely linked to, and dependent on, the project to launch 'Chartered Management Consultant', approval for which has not yet been received from the Privy Council. Plans are, however, in place to make sure that early progress can be made as soon as that decision is forthcoming.
Draft Budget Plan 2016/17 – Business priorities had been discussed and agreed at the previous meeting, with the Apprenticeship programme and Higher Education Partnerships seen as the priority areas. This aligns with the 5 year roadmap, considered and agreed by the Board in February and now being cascaded to Committees. A copy of the roadmap is available here.
The Board confirmed the investment from reserves into the Apprenticeship strategy. For the remaining areas of the business:
Investment during the year in additional initiatives, over and above 'business as usual', will be on a business case basis. The budget does allow for increased spend on PR and external affairs, to improve our positioning with key stakeholders; event and member engagement activities; product development; and back office customer service support.
The Board approved a 'no miss' budget for 2016/17, with income set to increase to £13.3m. An aspirational budget was also agreed, showing income potentially rising to £14.2m. Review points are in place during the year, to be able to monitor performance and identify 'early warnings' which may necessitate a review of a particular initiative and/or adjustments to financial figures.
KPIs 2016/17 – As well as the financial targets, KPIs cover Apprenticeships, HE partnerships, Number of Chartered Managers, Affiliate Conversions, and brand reputation. During discussion it was agreed to review the membership KPIs and to include, for example, a measurement of membership attrition in terms of 'controllable losses'.
WiM developments – Sue O'Brien, Chair of the WiM Advisory Committee, reported on positive moves within Women in Management, arising from the first meeting of the re-established WiM Advisory Committee. Under a working title of 'CMI Women', the focus will be on inspiring and enabling emerging leaders, ie those at middle management levels. This is where the gap in strategy is seen to be, given the number of groups and initiatives already dedicated to championing the cause of women in very senior roles. An activity plan will be developed for the next Committee meeting in April, straddling research; communications; a focus on ethnicity to ensure a wider diversity perspective; and partnership development.
Forging close links with the Regional WiM Champions and WiM Networks is seen as paramount and this will be a particular focus for the Committee, with an early joint session planned.
During discussion, it was suggested that segmentation of activity could be on the basis of (a) younger managers, including Apprentices; (b) those progressing into a middle management career; and (c) women returners, in particular those women re-entering the workplace after an extended absence stretching to 10 or 15 years.
Apprenticeships – The Board was updated on activities during Apprenticeship Week, running from 14 to 18 March; and on the submission to BIS to operate an Apprenticeship Programme in Management at levels 3 and 5. Engagement of a broader range of stakeholders is a further priority, including Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs) and local contacts forged through the Regional Boards, including Chambers of Commerce. Of particular note is our heightened profile within BIS thanks to the Apprenticeship programme, and our extended reach to a wider employer group thanks to interest in getting involved in Apprenticeships. There is still, however, a distinct negative connotation attached to Apprenticeships, with concerted effort still needed to overcome this. There is also a lack of clarity on the employer levy. This points to the need for a sustained communication and influencing strategy.
'Chartered Management Consultant' – The decision of the Privy Council on 'Chartered Management Consultant' has not yet been received. The prospective timescale for a decision was six months and we therefore expect to hear further during April. In the meantime, the Board welcomed the establishment of a ChMC Steering Board, chaired by Martin Cook, focusing on the next steps and, in particular, ensuring a cross sector approach, straddling the large firms, smaller consultancies, independent consultants, and particular sectors such as engineering and technology. A link will also be made to Apprenticeships in Management Consultancy.
Complaints Handling and Resolution Process – The Board approved amendments to the procedure, contained in the Board Regulations, governing how member complaints are handled in terms of investigating a potential breach of the CMI/IC Code of Conduct. See the revised procedure here.
Risk Management Register – The latest version of the Register, as submitted by the Finance and Audit Committee, was approved and can be viewed here.

Rate of Return on Securities
On April 21, 2006, Toyota Motor Credit Corporation (TMCC), a subsidiary of Toyota Motors, offered some securities for sale to the public. Under the terms of the deal, TMCC promised to repay the owner of one of these securities $10,000 on April 23, 2036, but investors would receive nothing until then. Investors paid TMCC $1,163 for each of these securities; so they gave up $1,163 on April 21, 2006, for the promise of a $10,000 payment 30 years later. (Do not include the percent sign (%). Round your answers to 2 decimal places, e.g. 32.16.) :
a. Based upon the $1,163 price, TMCC was paying a rate of percent to borrow money.
b. Suppose that, on April 21, 2015, this security's price was $6,400. If an investor had purchased it for $1,163 at the offering and sold it on this day, she would have earned an annual rate of percent.
c. If an investor had purchased the security at market on April 21, 2015, and held it until it matured, she would have earned an annual return of percent.
Solution Preview
Effective period of deposit = April 21, 2006 thru April 23, 2036 = 30 years +2 days = 30.00548 years
Where present value is PV $1163
And Future value is FV is $10,000
Solution Summary
Solution describes steps and formulas to calculate rate of return based on present and future values of securities at various periods.

Bluth Discussion Thread PT 7: Advance 1/18 @ 11PM CST
Around late July/Early August I was in 3 GM leagues. In every league i noticed the same thing. Everyone trades away nearly half their team. I was completely guilty of this as well. Oddly enough, i seemed to be the only one who thinks picks and prospects have little value in this game mode when you consider we'll only most likely be playing 4-6 seasons for NHL 13 and even Elite Prospects start out in the 60's.
I became weary that in about a month when the winners and the losers start to become more separated that people wouldn't want to stick with a losing team and they'll end up quitting. This isn't including the people who chose the Blue Jackets, Islanders, Coyotes etc...teams that you have to know a rebuild is necessary before you pick them. These people will probably stay regardless. But the guys who chose the average/good teams who trade away large chunks of their roster and either...
a) aren't very good at the game and get frustrated
b) simply get bored with the game mode and stop playing/quit
...well these guy's teams will have to be replaced. Are people really going to want to join a Connected league in December when they chose a team and the roster isn't even recognizable? When all the players they associate a team with are gone? When a team has gone from a Playoff Contender to a team in Rebuild? Everyone might as well be doing random rosters if thats the case. I've also seen A LOT of really bad/lopsided trades (again, guilty myself) that while seemingly fine to the GM's currently involved, might not be ok and might even be terrible for the next GM to pick up the team.
When i created this league almost 2 months ago, i had all of these things in mind. Now, 2 months removed from then, i've seen a lot, if not most of these HF Boards GM Leagues either terribly inactive or completely shut down. I wanted to make a league that was immune to these processes. That offered a realistic experience for everyone. That kept things fresh for all 30 GMs involved through offering challenges and consistency day in and day out.
Drop outs are inevitable. These leagues probably wont be as fun for the people who are in the bottom 10 and realize they'll be stuck there 30 games into the season. My goal with limiting trades is that so when people do drop out (which will happen) the new people who join will still have a team they are semi-familiar with instead of a fantasy roster with NHL jerseys. If people dont drop out and decide to stick it out, they'll be rewarded with higher draft picks (obviously) but they'll also be rewarded with time to see their high draft picks become useful NHL players due to the amount of games i'll be simming. This means that there is usually a constant influx/outflux of GMs to this league. Which in turn means that anyone on my reserve list is nearly guranteed a team in a very short period of time. I only want the most active GMs in my league of course so i'm constantly weeding out inactive GMs.
If you're an aspiring member to The Bluth Company, this is my league. Welcome to it. Below are the rules that separate The Bluth Company from the rest...
-Game Schedule: 2 weeks=3 real days schedule, games will be played for 4 weeks, 6 real days, and then i will sim the 3rd 2 week, 3 real day period. This means that roughly 1/3rd of our season will be involuntarily simmed. This will be done so we can fit in a few more seasons and hopefully play about 7-9 seasons instead of 4-6. It has become a great blend of being both a talented player, and intelligent GM. With this extra seasons that are now allowed, growing your prospects for the future is now equally as important as utilizing your current players to their full potential.
Playing Your Opponent's CPU: In the Bluth Company we have a 3 day sim period that covers 2 weeks of NHL Games. GMs have 2 days to schedule their games. On the 3rd day, ONLY if you have made a honest effort to schedule a game with your opponent, either through HF Boards messaging or Xbox, can you then play your opponent's computer.
Messaging your opponents: Message your opponents! Its an almost statistical certainty that if you message all of your opponents you will get all or most of your games in that block and it is a Requirment for League Participation
2) When you message your opponents, all you need to do is the following...
-Go to the 1st page of either this thread or the Trade/Lineup thread
-Click the HF Username of your opponent, its a hyperlink to their PM Box
-Send them a message that looks like this...
This is a league requirement. GMs not doing this will be subjected to other, active, GMs playing their team's CPU and/or be removed from the league due to inactivity. This is a League Rule because i automatically sim 1/3rd of the season already. That is the amount of games i've decided is the appropriate blend of actual skill at the game vs skill of managing your team. When you dont play your games, and force me to sim them, you're adding to the amount of simmed games per season, which disrupts the "Balance" of Play Skill vs GM skill.
================================================== ==
DNF vs CPU: From now on, your DNF vs CPU is never allowed to be higher than 0%. If this happens, you'll be given 1 warning. After that warning, i'll kick you from the league again, resetting your DNF vs CPU back to 0%. If it goes above 0% again, you lose the privilege to play CPU games for the rest of the season. If your DNF vs CPU goes above 0% at any point after that, you'll lose the ability to play CPU games for as long as your in The Bluth Company.
================================================== ==
-No trade can involve more than 4 Roster Players (combined from both teams)
-No trade can involve more than 6 total pieces (combined from both teams)
-GMs are allowed Two Trades Per Season. The specific Injury, Offseason, Regular Season, and Deadline moves have all been removed. Yes, even the Injury Trade. These two trades can be used at any time from Day 1 of the Offseason until the Trade Deadline.
This is the rule that both directly and indirectly separates this league from the rest. Trades are supposed to be a big deal. A trade is the literal removal of assets from your team in place of other assets in order to make the team better. Its not something that real GMs take lightly. The success of their team and their jobs depend on how well their decisions pan out. One of the major reasons so many other leagues unfortunately dont work out is because people get so excited about making trades that they forget their team needs, how close their team is to a cup, how these deals will impact their present and future. This isn't the case in The Bluth Company because of the above mentioned rules. GMs will have had two seasons to shape their team, to manage their cap, and plan for a Cup run or Rebuild.
Tanking: Any GM caught "Tanking" or trying to lose games on purpose, will be removed from the league, no questions asked.
Additional Bluth Company Rules: Effective Immediately
1) PLAYSTYLE: What is and Whats Not Allowed
Anything and everything is allowed in the Bluth Company. Shortside dekes, backhand-forehands on the breakaway, rebound goals, tying people up on faceoffs, wrist shots from the slot, etc...Its ALL 100% OK with me as Commissioner of The Bluth Company.
What is NOT ok with me is Excessive Use of anything mentioned above or anything not mentioned above. This league is about having fun. There aren't leaderboards, no Cash Prizes, no special recognition. Hell, even when you win the Stanley Cup the only thing you get are moderate bragging rights between 29 other people and one special post from the Commish congratulating you. This league is about having fun and doing any one sort of tactic over and over and over again takes away the fun from your opponent. If you're confused about this, just keep the word "Diversity" in your mind. Mix your playstyle up. Nobody should be scoring all of their goals from doing the same thing over and over again. Nobody should be attempting to be doing the same thing over and over again (even if it doesn't result in a goal). If you've scored two breakaway goals doing the same move, try something else next time you get on a breakaway. If you've scored a few goals from wristers in the slot already, mix it up and work in some one-timers and rebounds. DIVERSITY people!
I want GMs to enjoy playing their games. This league should be about having fun, not putting up as many goals as you can. NHL 13 has a lot of flaws so lets not make those flaws worse than they already are by playing like some top 100 VS player schmuck. Mix things up, try something new, have fun! Its a videogame afterall.
Backup Goalie Rule:
Effective immediately, All teams are required to start their backup goalie atleast 10 Games in the regular season. EA didn't take goalie fatigue into the equation and as it is now, its extremely easy to have your goalie start 82 games without consequence. Goalies can be put in during double advances or be used in actual games.
Failure to do this will cost a GM a 2nd round pick in the next draft.
Franchise Player Rule:
In my first two seasons of Bluth i was eager to have an active and fun league. My eagerness made me be a little too flexible with who was traded. There were over 20 big name players traded in two seasons. This is NOT realistic. In the NHL, GMs try and build a core of players that can win them games and championships. They dont just swap out star players every year and hope that it works. This is what i want the Franchise Player Rule to accomplish. It will force GMs to establish a core of players and use them for many seasons.
-Each team will have 3 Franchise Players and 1 Franchise Prospect
(if you feel you truly dont have 3 players and 1 prospect worthy of the tag then speak to me)
-No player/prospect on this list can be traded for 3 seasons
(any ammendments to a GM's list must be approved by myself)
*The ONLY Exceptions...
1) If a Franchise player is 37 years or older.
2) If a Franchise player is a pending UFA, not an RFA however
Flipping Players:
Any player acquired via trade can not be traded for 3 seasons AFTER they are acquired.
(Only exception to this rule is if they are a pending UFA, not RFA)
This rule, like the Franchise player rule, is meant to give teams an identity. Its also meant to force GMs to make smarter trades. No GM flips players from year to year. This rule is meant to simulate that.

I'm starting to notice that each "Discussion Thread" seems to have one or two major topics that are the most heavily discussed. If this thread does focus on anything, i'd like it to be this...
It seems like every post is one of the following...
-GM X did this to me! Isn't this banned?
-I outshot my opponent and lost again! This game hates me!
...enough already. You guys are making these discussion threads a drag to read through. I dont even get excited coming to MY OWN threads anymore because theres just so much negativity. Its not all of you but it is most of you. This game isn't perfect. I get it, you get it, we all get it. But lets squeeze as much enjoyment out of it as possible. Isn't that better than coming to a forum and *****ing, hoping that someone will quote your post and be like "Yeah! I agree with this guy!"?
I'm not going to ban complaining or anything like that but you guys need to knock it off. As far as what is and what is not allowed, this is the last time i'm saying anything about it. Next time anyone brings it up and asks another completely unneccesary question i'm only going to respond with "Read the Rules in Post #1 of this thread". I dont want to deal with these discussion anymore. I've made it totally clear and yet you guys keep muddying everything up.
So, in summary:
-Stop Complaining so much about every little thing
-If you're confused about a rule, read Post #1. I've explained it dozens of times and no GM in my league is new enough to deserve further explanation.
Niko Hovinen has more shutouts in 13 GP then I have gotten in a season and a half with Bryzgalov.
Updated Section of Rules...
How's everyone doing with their backup goalie rule by the way? I think Simpson has 5 or 6 games played for me so far.
Also thinking the punishment for this is going to be giving up your 2nd round pick, or being banned from Free Agency for that season.
yikes.. banned from free agency? thats a little harsh I think.. maybe if you NEVER play your back up.. but if someone plays their starter for 73 games instead of 72.. meaning the backups only started 9 times.. i think maybe that should be giving up a 3rd round pick or something less severe..
To be honest, the pick doesn't seem like much a punishment to me. If I'm nearing the end of the season, and seeding or something is at stake, which is more valuable, playing Lundquist the extra 10 games, or a mid-2nd or 3rd who will likely never play in this league? EDIT: To be clear, I'm suggesting that the punishment needs to be harsh enough to force compliance, not that the rule is a bad one.
(Not that I can think of a better punishment at the moment. No ideas.)
Anyway, I think Missiasen has started 4 games. I plan to play him again today against the Sharks. I generally use him against the Western Conference in road games. Gotta keep my home-town fans happy, after all. :laugh:
10 games isn't too much to ask. Its simple following of directions and being an active GM in this league. Besides, if i go with giving up a pick, who gets the pick? The Commissioner?
Start your backup goalie 10 times. His W-L record must add up to 10 games. 10 games played with a W-L record of 5-4 or 4-3 =/= 10 games played and violates the rule.
Why would that be fair?
Give it to the worst team in the league. Or, if there are multiple teams not in compliance with the rule (which I fully endorse), spread them out across the worst teams in the league.
In terms of meeting the requirement, I think that it should be both the W/L decisions and a certain threshold for minutes played. Otherwise, you can simply start your back-up, get a few early goals, then switch him for the starter.
I think banning from free agency is fine. It isn't a hard rule to follow, guys. Just freaking do it.
Also, screw you, Varlamov.
No they only get the Win/Loss if they play the full game i believe. I think draft picks are the wrong way to go. If the future drafts are going to have an insane lack of depth as this past draft did then losing a 2nd round pick at the price of having 10 more wins a season is nothing IMO.
The best punishment is restriction from Free Agency.
Anyway, that seems fair. I might even go both--forfeit a 2nd and a bar on free agency activity in July (when the choicest pieces sign).
Yea guys, lets give hot fuss a break,
I mean, we can just leave it to him to whine/complain about things, think about it, if things aren't going your way just suck it up, and then , down the road once he decides whether or not its relevant (to him) only then will things be changed. Also I mean your playing in the best league ever created run by an absolute genious, don't question his judgement, I mean the intent is to make a league intended for the benefiet of one. Power trips and complaining aside im sure there are no other controversys
coming from the sister league and observing the last few weeks of discussion here, seems to be a bit of dictatorship ruling going on.
Some teams may have more than 1 back up they will have start. Especially one back up gets injured.
Say I started Quick in a game.. he lets in 2 softies on the first 2 shots, I immediately switch him out for my back up, and I come back to win the game 4-3.. My backup goaltender would get that win, not Quick.
However if I start my backup and the same senario happens and then I put Quick in and lose 3-2 (without tying the game at any point) then my backup gets that loss.
THEN if I start Quick, go down 2-0, put in my back-up and tie it at 2-2, but then eventually lose 5-3 then the backup gets that loss.
Basically, at least 10 decisions and 600 minutes played have to be distributed among one or more goalies other than your starter. That's the thrust of the rule, right? It should cover all but the most complicated work-arounds.

Military law attorneys have experience with The Uniform Code of Military Justice, which is the law that applies to members of the armed forces. These lawyers are often called "JAGs" or Judge Advocate Generals. Military law attorneys prosecute or defend troops court-martialed in cases of discipline or disobedience of a lawful command. For example, if you are an army private and refuse an order, a military trial would be held, with one military law attorney representing the Army (and aiming to prove the disobedience charge), and another military law attorney defending you.

There's a message true and glad
For the sinful and the sad,
Ring it out, ring it out;
It will give them courage new
It will help them to be true;
Ring it out, ring it out.
