On Tap Today: The election's upon us
Will Obama be re-elected for a second presidential term? Will Mitt Romney and his Wisconsin-based VP candidate Paul Ryan take over the White House? One thing is for certain - this election thing is a pretty big deal, particularly in a so-called battleground state like Wisconsin. So unique entertainment options appear to be a bit spare tonight as we wait to see how this election will pan out.
That said, the Riverwest Public House Cooperative at 815 E. Locust St. has found a way to celebrate the election and bring some much needed fun to the evening. It's been preparing for tonight with a series of "Hot Blind Debates" discussions this fall in addition to screening the actual presidential debates. Tonight, election coverage will be playing on two big screen TVs, with raffle prizes for guessing the popular vote in states before they're called, plus political jokes and "I Voted" drink specials. Oh, and according to the site, depending on how things go, cat videos might be shared as well. »Read Full Blog Post

Atlas BBQ in Grafton serves seriously good barbecue
Barbecue isn't so much a Milwaukee thing, narrowly speaking. Sure, we grill bratwurst over charcoal like nobody's business, but barbecue is altogether different, cooking beef and pork low and slow until it's infused with wood-smoke flavor. Barbecue like that isn't broadly part of the culture, part of our DNA, the way it is in Texas, say, or North Carolina.
So it's a little stunning to see the profusion of smoked-meat establishments that have popped up in the past year or so. »Read Full Article(6)

text: Downloaded it for a gym reviews website, each post is an evaluation about a gym and needed to show the gym location for each gym/post and some reference points near them (metro station, bus stop, etc.). What's good: it's easy, features a fast way to setup/insert the map and works without dealing with workarounds. What's missing: a way to indicate paths/directions over two points in the map. Overall evaluation: works fine for me, I'll keep it in my website.

Since signing with the Cleveland Cavaliers earlier this offseason, Andrew Bynum has been working out at the team's facilities "nearly every day," according to Mary Schmitt Boyer of The Plain Dealer. In responding to readers, Schmitt Boyer said that Bynum has been working hard to return to his previous form this summer.
Bynum has been working out here nearly every day since he signed. I seriously doubt he planned to sit out last season since he was a free agent this summer and cost himself a lot of money by being unable to play last season. I think it was an unfortunate set of circumstances that kept him off the court. I also think that is the reason he has been working so hard to try and regain his form.
Schmitt Boyer also notes that she doesn't believe Bynum planned on sitting out through the entire 2012-13 season, which he spent with the Philadelphia 76ers. As evidenced this offseason, last year cost the big man money, and he instead had to settle on a contract that will allow him to rebuild his value.
Bynum is working hard to do just that, as he's still young enough that he'll be in line for a max contract. That is assuming his knees cooperate, of course.

You probably already heard the good news about the end of Keystone XL with Obama killing the proposal. This is a good symbolic step in ending the exploitation of the tar sands in Alberta, plus this comes just a few weeks before COP21.

What the analysts say: The verdict on Unilever's H1
By Katy Askew | 25 July 2013
Unilever H1 raises concern over macro-outlook
Unilever has characterised its first-half numbers as "solid", with higher profits driven by margin improvements and a focus on brands that deliver higher returns. However, Unilever's underlying sales growth narrowly missed consensus. There has been some concern about a slowdown in Unilever's emerging market sales growth and net revenue gains were hit by currency exchange and disposals. Here is the City's verdict on Unilever's H1 numbers.
"Unilever has announced its results for Q2/H1, which CEO Paul Polman characterised as solid. In the analyst call he sensibly set a context of the broader Unilever journey, with the company entering a second phase. From working to be 'fit to compete', Unilever is now 'maxing the mix', with gross margin more to the fore alongside sales volume, market share and cash generation. Gross margin advancement reflects the benefit of new innovation as well as pruning activities where management felt that category and market profitability was too low. Such work was clearly evident in H1 but in a measured manner more is to come, particularly against an increasingly competitive and challenging market context." - Clive Black, Shore Capital.
"The Q2/H1 has come in line with our expectations at the underlying level, but reflects a slight top line miss but margin beat, relative to consensus. Emerging market momentum has slipped a bit, but not by as much as we thought. Despite slight acceleration in foods, the essentially two-speed character (fast HPC, slow Foods) of the ULVR 2013 vintage persists. Strong gross margin expansion tees up the prospect of an FY margin beat." - Martin Deboo, Investec Securities
"Unilever continues to be seen as a barometer for global economic health, with today's news somewhat disappointing. Emerging market sales have slowed, while sales in the developed markets have slipped into negative territory. Europe and in particular southern Europe remain difficult, while China remains squarely in focus. More positively, the transformation at Unilever is continuing, with product innovation and cost savings remaining high on management's agenda. All product categories grew globally, while the company continues to strengthen its footholds in places such as India." - Keith Bowman, Hargreaves Lansdown Stockbrokers
"Despite "slowing" emerging markets, Unilever still delivered double-digits growth (+10.3%) which was basically in-line with Q1 supporting our view that "slowing" does not mean "crashing". Plus HPC is still growing very strongly (personal care: +7.7%, household +10.2%) while food, partly due to the European weather, struggles (foods: +1.0%, refreshment: +1.9%) supporting our "slowly becoming more an HPC company and so a stronger company" thesis. The very strong gross margin growth has doubtless led to a big increase in A&P investment in the semester, although the precise figure was not disclosed, and still allowed Unilever to deliver above consensus on operating margins." - Andrew Wood, Sanford Bernstein
"Unilever's increased focus on gross margins is paying dividends (although helped by an easier input cost environment) with a 120bp rise to 41.0% in constant currencies, and despite higher A&P this allowed EBITA margins to beat our and consensus expectation of 13.9%, rising by 40bp to 14.0%. All geographies saw 30-50bp margin expansion, and on a category basis the low-margin problem areas of home care and refreshment saw encouraging expansion of 170bp and 90bp respectively.... Unilever's imbalanced growth continues, but we think developed markets should pick up slightly in H2 and the skew to emerging markets continues to grow (now over 57% of sales). The margin progress is encouraging and obviously a key part of the investment thesis in the medium term is that Unilever can close the gap and key peers on margins." - Graham Jones, Panmure Gordon

Romeo and Juliet
by William Shakespeare
Analysis: What's Up With the Title?
Yep: the full title of the 1599 version of the play reads The Most Excellent and Lamentable Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet. We happen to think "excellent and lamentable" is a pretty accurate description of the play. Other than that, the title is pretty straightforward: the play is a tragedy about two crazy kids named Romeo and Juliet.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - Mine operator Consol Energy has agreed to pay $400,000 to settle some 270 water pollution violations in West Virginia.
The state Department of Environmental Protection says Canonsburg, Pa.-based Consol has reached six separate agreements covering various subsidiaries, including Consolidation Coal, which would pay $252,000 for 115 violations of water pollution permits.
Consol spokesman Tom Hoffman declined to comment Tuesday.
Consol is the third coal company to settle water pollution cases with the agency recently.
Consol operates mines in Virginia, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio and Utah.

Product Reviews
Average Rating: 5 in 1 review
I've been playing Lords of Vegas for years and it was not in my top ten of games until this expansion. I call it the must have expansion because of how it changes the dynamic of the game. (This review assumes you have played the based game)
"Up" allows you to take a one block (LVL) casino and by paying 15 million, you can raise it by adding a tile under it...in essences making it a two story building. now when it scores it counts as a level two. This changes the dynamic of the game by making the game less cut- throat. You no longer need to fight as much to take over other players casinos nor do you need to sprawl as much. It made the game far more enjoyable for me and my gaming group. Don't get me wrong we still take over others casinos and sprawl but its not like it used to be nor as stressful.
This is a must if your going to play with max players too and also help eliminate the hope you get properties next to each other. I play the game all the time now and I highly recommend that you get this expansion when you get the game. The game feels incomplete without it!

The Syrian civil war (Arabic: الحرب الأهلية السورية) is an ongoing multi-sided armed conflict with international interventions taking place in Syria. The unrest grew out of the 2011 Arab Spring protests, and escalated to armed conflict after President Bashar al-Assad's government violently repressed protests calling for his removal. The war is being fought among several factions: the Syrian Government, a loose alliance of Syrian Arab rebel groups, the Syrian Democratic Forces, Salafi jihadist groups (including al-Nusra Front) who often co-operate with the rebels, and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). All sides continue to receive substantial support from foreign actors, leading many to label the conflict a proxy war waged by both regional and global powers.
Under the Assad regime, Syria went through significant neoliberal economic reform. This reform exacerbated disparities in wealth, which combined with a recession and several years of drought led to the spread of the Arab Spring to Syria. Protests quickly spread to the predominantly Kurdish areas of northern Syria.
Syrian opposition groups formed the Free Syrian Army and seized control of the area surrounding Aleppo and parts of Southern Syria. Over time, factions of the Syrian opposition split from the original moderate politics to pursue an Islamist vision for Syria, as al-Nusra Front and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). In the north, Syrian government forces largely withdrew to fight the FSA, allowing the Kurdish YPG to move in and claim de facto autonomy. In 2015 the YPG joined forces with Arab, Assyrian, Armenian and Turkmen groups forming the Syrian Democratic Forces.
As of February 2016 the government held 40% of Syria, ISIL held around 20-40%, Arab rebel groups (including al-Nusra Front) 20%, and 15-20% is held by the Syrian Democratic Forces. Both the Syrian Democratic Forces and the Syrian Army have made recent gains against ISIL.
International organizations have accused the Syrian government, ISIL and other opposition forces of severe human rights violations, with multiple massacres occurring. The conflict caused a considerable displacement of population. On 1 February 2016, a formal start of the UN-mediated Geneva Syria peace talks was announced by the UN, with the fighting continuing unabated.

Further, their website provides misleading and incorrect information.
They were not founded in 1998, they were founded in 2011 after copying a competitor's website, whom was the first to enter the wireless rental business before them. Thus, the claim that they were the first is incorrect.
Their website does not list any physical address nor management nor owners names. They are a division of Americard Processing and Moshe Merchant Services. When you call Mr. Mobile, you are really calling a merchant services provider.
Their testimonials do not provide last names of the individuals, nor company names. Thus, question their real validity.
This is a buyer beware - there are more reputable companies to rent wireless credit card machines from. This one is not.

We have discovered that National Debit Card Network is willing to take all steps to solving any concerns or issues to a mutually satisfactory resolution.

As an industry leader in the merchant services arena, National Debit Card Network wants their merchant customers, employees and sales team members to be 100% satisfied. [continued below]....
The information provided in this report below is based on comments made by Greg Slote during an on-site inspection held by a third-party verification company with no biases toward Federated Payment Systems.
Ripoff Report Verified™ .. part of Ripoff Report Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation & Customer Satisfaction Program.A program that benefits the consumer, assures them of complete satisfaction and confidence when doing business with a member business..
National Debit Card Netowrk is a credit card processing center and merchant account provider operating in both the United States and Canada. Their business model is to focus on improving the operating procedure of small to mid-size businesses by helping them save on operating costs while at the same time providing efficient and excellent customer service. National Debit Card Netowrk acquires leads through internet advertising and by purchasing targeted call lists in which their employees at the call center contact the potential clients. Once a client expresses interest, an appointment is set and confirmed and they will meet with a sales rep to review the services offered. All sales appointments are reported to and reviewed by the regional manager. Leads are also generated by client referrals and if any of those leads result in a sale, the client is paid a referral fee.
Once a sale is generated, the application is reviewed by the risks and underwriting department. Once approved, a welcome kit is sent out to the customer which includes operating instructions for the equipment. The equipment is then sent out to the client. The new system gets activated and tested. Customer service department is directly involved to handle any initial questions. Thereafter, clients can contact merchant support which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
At times, a client may not feel satisfied with the product or services they received. Upon receiving a complaint from an unsatisfied client/customer, a representative from whichever department is involved will contact the customer. The supervisor from that same department well be informed of the complaint as well as all actions taken to rectify the situation. Recently, a client contacted National Debit Card Netowrk complaining that the equipment he was sent was very difficult to understand and to use. National Debit Card Netowrk, at its own expense, sent the client new equipment that was operated in a different manner which made it easier for the client to understand and use. This is not a common complaint, however. All equipment is thoroughly tested prior to being shipped.
Merchant support helps all new clients to operate and understand the equipment, therefore it is very rare that clients call to complain about the use and operation of the equipment. To resolve this issue, National Debit Card Netowrk immediately shipped the client new equipment. Merchant services followed up to ensure everything was working properly. The client was very pleased on how fast the situation was resolved. Once a client complaint is resolved they are sent a satisfaction survey. If any client fills out the survey and gives a rating which is below an outstanding receives a follow-up call by either customer support or merchant services. To ensure that a potential client fully understands all details and is fully aware of the company's processes, all new clients fill out the contract with a sales rep present to answer any questions. The client initials every page. Once the contract is complete, the client then reviews it and signs the last page in front of the sales rep.
National Debit Card Netowrk also has protocols in place for dealing with employees who may not be performing up to the expected standards to ensure that they are treated fairly, even if they need to be let go. When an employee is not performing up to standards or other work related problems are occurring, they are first given a verbal warning to get back on track. If that warning does not work they are then given a written warning. If they still do not improve, they are given a final warning. If all that fails, they are then terminated from employment. All employees are issued an employee handbook in which they must sign a "do not compete" order. If they violate that order, or if they are caught stealing customer information, they are terminated immediately.
In response to a complaint posted about National Debit Card Netowrk on Ripoff Report, Vice President of Marketing Greg Slote states that they have increased employee training and staff meeting. Additionally, all employees are instructed to make customer satisfaction their number one priority. Mr. Slote also recognizes the value of working with Ripoff Report and the Corporate Advocacy Business Remediation and Customer Satisfaction Program, and the platform it provides for businesses and clients to interact and resolve issues. "National Debit Card Netowrk appreciates the opportunity to remediate any complaint or issue that may arise from consumers, customers, clients or employees. [This program] allows the business to help resolve the problems."
NATIONAL DEBIT CARD NETWORK / Statements from the President John Guirguis
"We carefully consider all customer concerns as constructive criticism and use them as tools to maximize our level of customer support. This is true for our sales representatives as well. After all, they are our front line and their satisfaction is of equal importance. We value all feedback and continually improve our processes based on the responses. This is key component of our success and helps National Debit Card Network to remain highly competitive with sustained growth. Expert customer support, talented employees and customer-focused sales team members are the key to our success," states a high level manager at National Debit Card Network. "We are constantly reaching out to customers and employees alike with surveys, emails, webinars and other tools to remain an industry leader."
A sales team member from National Debit Card Network recently advised us "I have spent a little over a year as an independent sales representative for the National Debit Card Network. I wanted to let other sales people looking for a position in merchant services and credit card processing know this company provides excellent support, pays commissions on a daily basis and gives me on an average three prequalified appointments each business day. This is a very competitive business and NDCN offers the support I need to be successful."
"We believe the more knowledgeable the sales team member, the better they can educate the merchant in our products and services. That is why NDCN has lengthened our initial sales training and instituted evening advanced trainings each week.
As we rapidly expand our sales team, we have recently increased the size of our sales support team dedicated to answering any of their questions quickly.
National Debit Card Network proactively conducts what we call our "Merchant Check-up". On a quarterly basis we reach out to all customers to review their accounts further ensuring we deliver the best customer service and technical support.
We have added close to a dozen customer service experts to help reduce hold times and provide the highest level of support.
We are constantly adding new programs and developing vendor partnerships to provide our merchant customers additional ways to grow their business and increase profits.
Because security is critical in our industry, we conduct criminal background checks on every single employee as well as all contracted sales representatives.
We continually upgrade our sales agent portal to make sure all sales representatives have the latest tools they need to efficiently and effectively manage each of their customer accounts."
National Debit Card Network acknowledges that complaints posted on Ripoff Report (whether true or not) need to be addressed in a timely fashion. If Ripoff Report's review discovers a legitimate merchant issue, NDCN address them quickly in hopes of a positive outcome leading to a better customer experience.
In summary, after our review, Ripoff Report is convinced that National Debit Card Network is committed to quality delivery of services resulting in total client satisfaction.

They always say its you. But whats always the common denominator? They are
When an employee almost dies after being found the next morning, blood soaked in an elevator, after using drugs and alcohol in the Melville office with Scott Avery afterhours, you must believe something is wrong
As a former employee of this organization for MANY YEARS at an executive level, I can only agree with the negative remarks posted. Not only have I had a professional relationship with this organization, I have also had an extensive personal relationship with the individuals mention at this company. In the end, I was treated just like everyone else was; disposable.
No matter how good you are, how much revenue you earn them, how hard you work for them It will come to an end and they will fabricate anything to put the blame on the other party. This is a company who fired 20+ employees, just hours before a company Christmas party. This is a company who
intentionally cuts off residual payments weeks before they vest for life to the agent. This is a company who will [and has] take away the livelihood of the most loyal of employees. All because they are greedy. CEO Jon Levitt says it best with his famous line, My kids eat first.
Jon Levitt recently terminated the #1 sales manager for the past 5 years, via a phone call from home, while the employee was at his desk working to earn this company more. This is a manager who has accounted for over 10,000 of their existing clients. Thats more than Scott Avery, VP, has even accounted for. All over a rumor that this individual was looking to advance his career else ware after CEO Jon Levitt stated, as long as L**** is employed at Federated, he will be a sales manager. Period. Furthermore, they attempted to slander his name across the company after his dismissal rather than resolving the matter privately. This is an employee who would work 65+ hour weeks with no overtime; fueled by his dedication to the company.
They will attempt to discredit you: They will hypocritically denounce you. Calling you irresponsible, dishonest, or disloyal.
Then they use lines like: Just another case of a rep who cant close Just a guy mad that he cant sell - You violated your agreement ( usually based on fabricated info) to rebuttal any blogs like these.
They will tell you: We cant set appointments in your area anymore, its a bad area. (this is how they get you to perform below your contract requirements so they dont have to pay you anymore)
The bottom line at this company is the bottom dollar. I understand free enterprise, I appreciate capitalism, and yes I was part of this organization for a very long time.
Just remember EVERYONE IS DISPOSABLE at this company.

Federated Payments is a scam
AUTHOR: Justintime - ()
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, April 16, 2013POSTED: Tuesday, April 16, 2013
These guys are full if it. I read these posts before i started and the recruiter passed me on to Scott Avery who tried to tell me that this site itself was a scam and the posts here were all made up by competeitors. I can say that 99% of these post sound very accurate after my experience.
Lets see if i get paid on all the accounts. They already held commissions on two deals because they claimed the profit on the accounts wasnt enough. yet they still took the accounts. Sounds like im screwed.
Thanks for wasting my time.

Oilers prospect John Marino of the Tri-City Storm was selected as the CCM Defenceman of the Week in the USHL.
He had three assists in his first game -- the only game played in the week -- helping his squad to a 5-1 win over the Omaha Lancers. He assisted on two goals in the opening frame and then had another in third period.
It's Marino's first season in the USHL. He's slated to attend Harvard next season.
The Oilers ECHL affiliate Norfolk Admirals named Eric Veilleux as head coach for the upcoming season. From the Admirals press release:ADMIRALS NAME FORMER ASSISTANT ERIC VEILLEUX HEAD COACH FOR 2015-16
NORFOLK, Va. - The Norfolk Admirals, the Oilers ECHL affiliate, announce today that the team has named Eric Veilleux head coach for the upcoming season. The Admirals have also named Ben Boudreau as assistant coach to serve alongside Veilleux.
|Eric Veilleux coached the Shawinigan Cataractes to the 2012 Memorial Cup (Getty Images)
Veilleux, 43, makes his professional head coaching debut after nine seasons at the helm in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) and one as assistant coach of the Admirals in 2014-15. Veilleux led the Shawinigan Cataractes to a Memorial Cup championship as the host in 2012 before moving on to Norfolk in 2014 following two seasons as bench boss of Baie-Comeau Drakkar. The Quebec City native compiled a 347-208-45 record and led his teams to the postseason in all nine campaigns during his QMJHL tenure.
A 5-foot-7, 148-pound forward in his playing days, Veilleux skated in 601 career games in three leagues and three different countries. He made 517 combined appearances in the AHL with the Cornwall Aces, Hershey Bears, Kentucky Thoroughblades, and Lowell Lock Monsters.

McDavid 1-on-1 | Story: LaLeggia & Betker | RAW: Joey LaLeggia | Ben Betker | Tyler Vesel
Oilers defenceman prospect Joey LaLeggia is attending his fourth Orientation Camp with the Oilers but with one huge difference this year: he will be playing professional hockey this upcoming season after four years at the University of Denver.
"It's great to come in here and meet the staff and meet the guys that you hope to one day be suiting up with," he began.
"It's a great experience for all of us and great to meet everybody and get comfortable. I feel that every time I come here I get more comfortable and also get more confident."
LaLeggia, a native of Burnaby, B.C., accumulated 132 points (49-83-132) in 156 games, over four seasons with the University of Denver Pioneers. He helped his team reach the NCAA Regional Finals this season.
"I was a player who needed to go to college. When I was 16 or 17 I think I was only 140 or 150 pounds. College really did a lot for me. The person I stepped onto campus as a 19-year old and the person I left as a 23-year old are two completely different people. I feel a lot more mature and I feel those are life experiences I'll take with me forever. It prepared me to come to pro hockey and gave me an opportunity to go to Oklahoma City after the season."
LaLeggia's game translated well to the pro level despite him having a bit of an adjustment period.
"That was a huge learning experience for me, just seeing the level that my game had to go to in order to be successful."
He played five regular season games, netting a goal and an assist for two points and also suited up for two playoff contests. LaLeggia looks to play a much bigger role next season on the Bakersfield Condors in the AHL.
"It was a pretty crucial time in the season when I got there," said LaLeggia. "I think I got there with about five games before the playoffs started. It was a completely different style from what I was used to. I found it was a lot more structured and a lot more controlled. Guys knew exactly where to be and when to be there. As colleges I felt it was a lot more run-and-gun and we only played two games a week. Guys are super jacked-up to play come Friday and Saturday whereas (in pro) they do it every day. They know exactly where to be. They're always prepared and that was the biggest thing for me, just learning how to be a pro."
RAW: McDavid | Draisaitl | Nurse | Kyle Platzer | Greg Chase | Rick Carriere
Coming off a successful 2014-15 season in which he scored 34 goals and 81 points in 68 games with the OHL's Owen Sound Attack, Kyle Platzer looks to make even greater strides heading into what is expected to be his first full professional campaign in 2015-16.
"It was a good step in the right direction and definitely encouraging going forward. Hopefully I'll turn pro this season and just build off last season," he said.
After his OHL season ended, he moved on to the AHL's Oklahoma City Barons where he contributed with two goals in four regular season games to end the season and suited up for three more contests in the postseason.
"It was awesome. You always wonder what it's like up there and just want to show your best. It was good to pot a few and get some confidence up there. Leading into this summer, it was awesome for me."
Oilers prospect Darnell Nurse talked about the large turnout -- close to 2,500 -- at Rexall Place to watch the third day at Orientation Camp.
"It was awesome. It was great to have the support of the fans out there. It shows how passionate of a city this place is for hockey and how hungry they are for the season coming up," Nurse began.
"It's exciting for everyone to go out there and see the type of support we get."
Nurse was also asked about the contract of Connor McDavid, who signed his three-year entry-level deal earlier today.
"It's a really special moment. It's cool to be rewarded for all the work you've done," said Nurse. "It's something he should be very proud of and definitely something he earned."
Caleb Jones couldn't help but be awestruck when he walked into the Oilers dressing room for the first time yesterday.
"I was walking into the locker room for the first time, getting my equipment fitted and I sat down in the stall and I looked around, thinking 'it's the Edmonton Oilers' it's one of the greatest organizations ever," Jones exclaimed, adding that his experience so far at camp has been nothing but positive.
"It's been great so far. It's been an exciting Development Camp. Two days after the draft was a quick turnaround for me but I'm excited to be here and I'm learning a lot already from the organization."
The brother of Nashville Predators defenceman Seth Jones added that being selected in the same draft as Connor McDavid is something he'll always hold onto.
"You've just got to show up and work hard every day," Jones continued. "He's a great player and he's going to play in the league for years to come. It's pretty cool being drafted (with him). You'll always be remembered as being part of the Connor McDavid Draft Class with the Edmonton Oilers."
Jones also added that he was looking forward to building camaraderie with McDavid and his other future NHL teammates.
"It's a team. You really become a team here and it builds up to when you get to the big leagues. I see a lot of guys like Nurse who have been here for awhile and they're good friends. I think over time you start to be around each other every day like that, you start to become friends and it gets a lot easier."
Ethan Bear, selected in the fifth round, 124th overall, by the Oilers at the NHL Draft this past weekend in Florida, had some advice from Craig MacTavish shortly after accepting his jersey at the table.
"MacTavish said 'one step at a time, just keep working'," said Bear. "It's important to work on things you can when you're on the ice and when you're off the ice get stronger."
Hard work is a mantra for Bear, a right-shooting defenceman who had 38 points in 69 games this past season with the WHL's Seattle Thunderbirds.
"Just work hard, when you're on the ice, compete," he said. "Try and earn your spot and keep working hard is the main thing. You might have to get out of your comfort zone and do things different on the ice but mainly for now it's only Development Camp so I'm going to have some fun and make myself better."
Hailing from Ochapowace, Saskatchewan -- near Regina -- Bear said that the reaction back at home was very positive.
"I think they're pretty happy over there and so am I. A lot of my family congratulated me."

For the first time, first-overall pick Connor McDavid stepped onto the ice at Rexall Place.
"Today was a lot of fun," said McDavid. "The fitness testing wasn't a whole lot of fun but really cool to throw on the Oilers gear, the gear that I want to play the rest of my life wearing. It was pretty cool to put it on. With all the history, it was a lot of fun."
It was a power skating lesson, which McDavid thought was very good for both himself and the other prospects.
"That circle stuff, one foot, a lot of edges. I thought it was really good," he said. "Skating is so important. You've always got to be working on it so it was good we got a chance to do that."
The centre was asked about how it feels to be in Edmonton and now be part of an NHL organization.
"It's going to take a little while for it to sink in. It still feels surreal. It's hard to picture being part of an NHL organization, never mind the Edmonton Oilers with such a storied background.
"I visited a couple weeks ago and I've only been here a little bit now. It's a great city. It seems really nice. I'm really enjoying it."
At the end of Wednesday's practice, Darnell Nurse selected Connor McDavid as the practice's first star. The 'first star' is a tradition which has carried on from Oklahoma City where the player previously selected first star chooses someone else at the end of practice with all players around the centre ice circle. The chosen one then has to take a lap around the ice.
With no prior first star, with Nurse's OKC experience, Fleming selected him as the one to pass the torch. Nurse, of course, selected McDavid.
"I'm not picking on him, I just let him do a lap," Nurse chuckled. "It was fun out there. It was something we did in OKC when Gerry (Fleming) was on the ice. He asked 'who will do first star?' and I said 'I'll do it for you' and we had a little fun."
McDavid said that he saw the selection coming from a mile away.
"Me and Nurse, we're good buddies. I saw it coming when they said they were doing that. It was a lot of fun," McDavid stated.
Nurse said he's excited to have McDavid as his teammate at the NHL level.
"Thank God I don't have to play against him anymore," he laughed. "He's a special player. Any time you get the opportunity to add a guy like that to your team, it makes the organization a lot better," Nurse noted. "We played against each other and battled against each other for a few years now and had the opportunity to play together at World Juniors. Not only is he a great player, he's a great guy. It's always good to joke around with him and have some fun."
The big defenceman said that the atmosphere around the team has been very positive in camp so far.
"It's really exciting. You can tell everyone is upbeat, looking forward to September and October. I'm looking forward to do what I can to make the team."
As for his own personal goals for next season? Nurse simply wants to make the team.
"My goal is definitely to come in here and earn a job. I just have to go out there and work as hard as I can. I can only control what I do."

I have been having issues connecting to public servers for the last 2 weeks or so. When I try to connect I get to the 'ready!' state and when the game is just about to connect I get the message: "Connection to the server has been lost". When I try to connect again I get the 95 second wait timer and when it is just about to connect to the server I get the same message.
I am able to connect to private servers so this issue baffles me a bit. I have verified my game cache files and have even uninstalled and reinstalled the game once.
Any help would be appreciated.

Under the Mantle: Marian Thoughts from a 21st Century Priest is the long-awaited book by Fr. Donald Calloway, author of the bestselling book No Turning Back: A Witness to Mercy.
In Under the Mantle, Fr. Calloway deftly shares his personal insights on topics including the Eucharist, the papacy, the Church, confession, Divine Mercy, prayer, the cross, masculinity and femininity.
The Blessed Virgin Mary is the central thread weaving a tapestry throughout with quotes about Our Lady from saints, blesseds, and popes. Under the Mantle is certain to become a "tour de force" Marian book!
|Lisa K (Bloomington, April 2, 2014)
|Easy read and informative. Fr.Calloway takes us on his journey of conversion and helps us as Catholics to understand devotion to Mary in the Church and how all of this applies to our lives today.
|Donna Dipaola (March 25, 2014)
|This is a wonderful book, very easy to understand ! I was very eager to read it after I read his first book about his conversion, and I was not disappointed.


text: In the Czech Republic, the established city of Brno is beaten only by the capital Prague in terms of size, population and importance. By all accounts, the second city is well worth a trip for those who have developed a taste for Czech culture but don't fancy paying for their stay at Prague prices. Hire a car in Brno and you'll have the opportunity to visit the wide range of architectural tributes to the city's heritage which still stand today – including monasteries, museums and galleries. The local area has several UNESCO World Heritage sites too which are definitely worth the cost of car hire in Brno.

If our political system was healthy, these asinine proposals would meet with universal ridicule. As it is, common citizens with common interests have no representation. Between illegal immigrants and illegal employers, there just is no one in power to represent those who work hard and play by the rules. Sure some might say that there are some conservatives in the House who want to do the right thing, but where have they been since the last immigration bill was passed and the laws on the books have gone unenforced?
