Bruins are in good hands
Thomas pulls out all the stops vs. Senators
- |
OTTAWA - Tim Thomas stopped all 29 pucks he saw. Zdeno Chara, in 26:17 of ice time, neutralized every offensive threat that came his way. Patrice Bergeron scored the game-winning goal. Marc Savard set up Marco Sturm for the second goal.
On a night when the Bruins were aiming to bust up a four-game winless streak, their best and highest-paid players (Thomas, Chara, Bergeron, and Savard earn a collective $22.25 million) were their best players. Appropriately, the Bruins blanked the Senators, 2-0, before 19,865 at Scotiabank Place.
"When you win this game, you get 3 out of 6 points,'' said coach Claude Julien of the three-game road swing (one win, one loss, one shootout loss). "Anytime you're .500 on the road, it's still not bad. We want to be better. But it's a great way to redeem ourselves. We could have come home with just 1 out of 6.''
Yesterday started with Thomas, struggling to find his game, going through one of his better morning skates.
"At some point, you've got to have that confidence and be determined to turn things around,'' Julien said. "This morning when I talked to him, I said, 'A winning streak starts with a win. Why not start tonight?' He seemed pretty keen and pretty determined this morning. He was loose in a way that you felt he was going to have a good one. I felt good about having him in this game just by what I saw in him today.''
Thomas's sharpness carried into the night. He made 11 saves in a scoreless first period, making his best stop when he darted out of the crease, challenged a wide-open Josh Hennessy, and smothered his shot at 12:58 to keep the Senators off the scoreboard. Thomas followed with 12 saves in the second period, then bricked up the net with six third-period stops to earn his fourth shutout of the season and 10th straight win over the Senators.
"He's been struggling in the win column lately, and it's been hard, obviously, on his morale,'' Julien said. "Somehow we felt this was a great opportunity for him to continue to play well against Ottawa and give him a chance to play well. He did. He was outstanding tonight. He played the kind of game we know he can. Hopefully he can build on that.''
Thomas got clear looks at most pucks, thanks to Chara standing tall and playing like the defending Norris Trophy winner. Because of injuries that have struck the back end (Mark Stuart, Derek Morris, and Dennis Wideman have missed games during the trip), Julien has leaned harder on Chara to provide shutdown defense. Chara responded by throttling the Ottawa attack. He blocked three shots, was credited with two hits, and recorded two takeaways to aid in the shutout, using his stick, body positioning, and ill-tempered approach to snuff out the Senators.
"There wasn't too much smiling with Z tonight,'' Julien said. "He had his game face on. He had that burr, if you want to call it that. He played with a mean streak. He's not fun to play against when he's like that. It was nice to see him play that way. He was a big part of our team tonight. He defended so well and had lots of ice time.''
Chara's flesh-bruising slapper led to the Bruins' first goal. Early in the third period, Chara nailed Vladimir Sobotka on the inside of the right leg with a one-timer. Sobotka lost feeling in the leg and had to miss the next faceoff but he finished the game. So Bergeron started the next shift with fourth-liners Shawn Thornton and Byron Bitz, and ended up scoring the goal.
From the right boards, Thornton winged a shot on goal that seemed to catch Brian Elliott (27 saves) by surprise. Elliott stopped the shot but left a fat rebound in the slot. Bergeron found the puck and rammed it in at 3:19 to give the Bruins a 1-0 lead.
Thomas got some breathing room later in the third when Savard, stuck in a five-game scoreless streak, finally busted through with one of his trademark dishes. Savard, with Sturm on his right side, took a pass from Chara deep in the defensive zone. Earlier in the game, Savard and Sturm had chatted about stretching out the Senators if the opportunity appeared.
"We had talked about it,'' Savard said. "That's where [Phil Kessel] was on the right side. Sturmy's got the same speed as he does. We talked about it before the game. I said, 'When you see me get it, you get on your horse.' ''
Finally, that chance took place. Even before Savard got the puck, Sturm was cheating down the right side. Savard hit Sturm with a long-distance tape-to-tape pass. Sturm slipped behind the Ottawa defense, broke in on goal, and canned a wrister at 13:07.
"Oh, man,'' said Savard. "I haven't had a slump like that in a long time. Credit to my wingers tonight. I thought we had a decent game. I think the biggest thing for me was to start skating again. I kept my feet going tonight. We got rewarded.''

LAKE COUNTY — A Lake County Circuit Court judge Thursday refused to force WMAQ-Ch. 5 to turn over unedited videotapes to the state's attorney's office for use in the sentencing of a former sportscaster convicted in May of indecent solicitation of a child.
Judge Fred Foreman said information on the tapes was not critical in making a recommendation on Robert Goldman's punishment.
Goldman, 44, of Aurora, solicited an undercover officer posing as a teenage girl on the Internet and was arrested in Waukegan in 2002 after more than a year of online conversations.

A conservation easement is a practical way for landowners to protect land from inappropriate future development while retaining their ownership. Easements permanently protect land from uses that could damage or destroy its scenic, recreational, ecological, agricultural, woodland, or historic values. Easements are donated to a non-profit conservation organization such as Great Works Regional Land Trust (GWRLT) or a public agency, which inspects the land periodically and enforces the restrictions in perpetuity. Each easement is tailored to fit the natural characteristics of the land, the personal needs of the owners, and the objectives of the conservation organization or agency.
Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about conservation easements.
Contact your local tax assessor for specific information about these programs.
Maine has two programs that help landowners preserve undeveloped lands and reduce property tax burdens by taxing the land on the basis of its current use rather than its higher development value. These are the Tree Growth and Farm and Open Space laws. They are similar in that they can be applicable to small tracts of land (5 to 10 acres), they require 'active' participation by the landowners to maintain their status, including an initial application, and they exact a penalty if the land is withdrawn from the program.',' Not all of a parcel needs to be placed in a program as long as the minimum acreage is met. A portion of a property can be left out to allow for other uses without incurring a withdrawal penalty. The withdrawal penalty does not have to be paid when the land is sold, given away, or inherited as long as its use remains the same. If it does become necessary to withdraw a portion of the property, the penalty is restricted only to the portion withdrawn for other uses, not the whole parcel.

This was our last full day with Rockstar, so while they were busy setting everything up for the big multiplayer session later, the 10 of us headed to Central Park for a few hours. That wasn't before we ate lunch though. A short walk to Katz's Deli filled our stomachs before we were driven to Central Park. Our time at the park was fun, we saw a lot of pigeons, took a lot of photos, and witnessed Jordan attempt a Cloverfield parody on his video camera, which I don't think turned out quite as well as he had planned :p
On the way back from Central Park, we asked our driver to stop at 622 Broadway, the location of Rockstar's offices. We weren't sure what was going to happen, but we decided to try our luck and see if we could get in. We were met by a sligthly bemused and crazy receptionist, he said something which only a few of us managed to understand, but we knew we had been denied access. We walked back out and Zidane phoned one of the R* guys to see if they could let us in. Unfortunately they said they were too busy (probably playing GTA4) and told us to go away basically.
Back at the hotel, we were told to meet up at the penthouse suite at around 6PM. The PS3's were all gone and the room consisted entirely of Xbox 360s for us to play on - this was presumably because of the consoles better online facilities with communication and the like, and the included headsets.
Before I talk about what we got up to, I'll just say that the one difference you will notice when comparing the PS3 and 360 versions is that the PS3 does have a slight graphical advantage over the Xbox 360 version - overall the game appears sharper, and shadows aren't as jagged or flickery as they are on the Xbox 360. Aside from this, the versions are identical in gameplay.
Our first multiplayer experience was with a standard Deathmatch which I managed to win! Hooray for me. I think some of the webmasters forgot that the winner is the one who picks up the most cash, some just killed then moved on. How many shots it takes to kill someone is very variable, and it depends on how close you are and what gun you're using. For example using an SMG from far away will mean you're quite inaccurate so loads of rounds will miss the player completely, close up though you should kill them pretty quickly. Team Deathmatch was next, and the team I was on managed to win, so two wins in a row for me :)
My luck soon ended with the next mode up, GTA Race. I was taken out multiple times all round the first few corners, which meant it was impossible for me to catch up to Psy who ran away with the win and a massive lead over everyone. This is probably my favourite mode though, you can have so much fun in it. Especially if a few people set up huge roadblocks preventing people from getting past, and everyone just generally killing each other!
Cops N' Crooks was up next, and we've heard from many previews that this has been the most fun mode to play, and Alison even told me it's [Rockstar's] favourite mode too. However, our game was over really quickly since by the time we found a vehicle, the team who were playing as cops had already got to our boss! I can see that this game mode is going to be up at the top of most people's favourites. After this we tried a couple of the other modes, but it seemed we all liked GTA Race, and a few more team deathmatches. We played with different configurations each time. For example, one team deathmatch was played just with rocket launchers, that was a LOT of a fun. It's amazing seeing your friends fly 50ft into the air from a rocket exploding right in front of them.
More fun GTA Race's were played, we were messing around with different vehicle classes, and had races such as all of us driving firetrucks, or everyone in the ice cream van! Car Jack City was up next and this is where you steal cars and bring them to garages, getting money based on the condition it's in. Whoever steals the most wins. We also tried all the other modes, but I won't go into details about all those, I'm sure you'll have enough fun trying them all out for yourself.
We continued playing all through the night, at around 1AM though, many of us just went up to the rooftop to take in the spectacular views and talk about GTA IV and Grand Theft Auto in general. We also discussed the idea of posting stories about our trips on our websites, something we decided was a good idea, which is why you're reading this. During this time, Chess, Mark and Bill were in the hot tub and tried getting us to join them. Later on (after Bill had got out and presumably retreated to his bed), Chess did manage to entice a few of the webmasters to join her and Mark. She also came up with interesting nicknames for some us. Andy was aptly named "Ginger Andy", Psy apparently looks like Pete Doherty, so that name stuck for him, and more surprisingly, I earned the nickname of "Supermodel Chris" - apparently the reason behind this was that Chess thinks I look somewhat like actor James Franco, I don't see the resemblance myself, but I didn't mind the nickname either!
After a while of chatting, those of us not in the hot tub went downstairs to play more GTA4, and were eventually kicked out of the penthouse suite at around 4.30AM, when some us decided to sleep, and others just stayed up and watched TV. We all had a great night of GTA4 though.

It took just six games for first-year coach Mike Munchak to carve out a place for himself in Tennessee Titans history, outside of his Hall of Fame playing career, that is.
An otherwise completely forgettable performance Sunday earned a prominent spot in two teams' record books.
A 41-7 rout at the hands of the Houston Texans was the home team's worst loss in the history of LP Field and had many in the announced sellout crowd booing before halftime and headed toward the exits well before its completion. It also was the largest margin of victory — period — for Houston, where Titans owner Bud Adams lives and maintains his business interests.
"Obviously [Sunday] they were better than us in every category you could bring up," Munchak said. "… We just weren't very competitive [after the first quarter]. Then they started making plays and we didn't, and it just got ugly."
No one pointed fingers in blame — directly, at least — although running back Chris Johnson seemed tempted to do so.
At the same time, no one could put their finger on why the Titans (3-3) suddenly can't seem to get a stop on defense after having allowed the fewest points in the NFL through the first four games. Likewise, there was no prevailing theory as to why they consistently can't run the ball on offense despite the presence of a back almost universally regarded as one of the league's best back in August.
Not only did Houston's Arian Foster (234 total yards three touchdowns), a Pro Bowler in his own right, outperform Johnson (45 yards, no touchdowns) by a wide margin, so did backup Texans; running back Ben Tate (15 rushes, 104 yards). Even Johnson's understudy, Javon Ringer, managed 31 rushing yards on three attempts.
"You can see what's going on," let's be honest," Johnson, who carried 10 times for 18 yards, said."… I won't say I'm the issue. I'm very confident that I've been doing the things that I've been having to do. It's a situation where I continue to say I can't do nothing but keep working hard, running hard and doing what I can do for this team."
Perhaps the difference in the teams' respective ability to run the football should not have been surprising given that Tennessee (3-3) came into the week last in the NFL in rushing offense while Houston (4-3) was among the top 10.
The performance of Tennessee's defense — top five in scoring and top 10 in yards allowed through the first six weeks — was a little more difficult to fathom.
Beginning with its third possession, Houston scored six times (times four touchdowns, two field goals) in seven drives. Included in that stretch were touchdown marches of 87, 94 and 92 yards, respectively. The 92-yard drive took just seven plays, the first four of which gained at least 17 yards.
"It seems like no matter what we did we couldn't get things rolling and we couldn't get a stitch of momentum out there," defensive end Dave Ball said. "I don't know. Whenever you get pounded on, it's not a good feeling."
Having held its first four opponents to fewer than 20 points each, Tennessee has allowed 79 points total in its last two — both defeats.
To be fair, the Texans' final score came against the Titans' offense. It was a 38-yard interception return early in the fourth quarter and it drove the losing margin beyond that of the 41-14 loss to Dallas on Oct. 1, 2006 (Vince Young's first game as a starting quarterback) for the largest in stadium history.
It also dropped the Titans out of first place in the AFC South, a half game behind the Texans.
"We needed to come into this place and get a victory, no matter if it was by 20 points, 30 points or one point," Houston wide receiver Kevin Walter said. "We did a good job of that."
The Titans, on the other hand, were hard-pressed to think of a single thing they did well, and the record books reflected as much.
"We're not happy with what product we put on the field [Sunday]," Munchak said. "It's on all of us — coaches, players. That's not us. It can't be us and we have to improve."
I was there. The booing was ominous.
The Defense was booed for it's inability to stop a known-sorry Texan offense (both pass and run); the Offense was booed for it's inability to run, or pass (and catch) the ball. The entire overall effort of this team was one big, fat, collective FAIL.
CJ didn't stand out as a catalyst because that $53 million is weighing him down, but there were no team member with 'sparks'; no one else stood out as a 'leader'. There was no evidence that anyone on that field was putting out the extra effort that's required of a professional NFL team player. I was reminded of the Titans team that lost in the snow, 59-0, in New England in 2009. If the Titans hadn't been playing at home, and were matched up against a better team than the lame Texans, they might've had those numbers eclipsed today.
Fans were calling for Jake Locker just past halftime. He did come on in during 'garbage' time, but he's no Tim Tebow.
Whatever those players and coaches did during the bye week was ineffectual. Yes, for that, blame the coaching staff as well. Munchak and his staff were out-coached.
Lame ducks, the lot of 'em. We expect much better, really.
I am a dolphins fans and yes I know they arent playing football to the best of thier abilty. I had the honor of going and watching the Titans play against the texans this sunday and I became aware of alot of issues.. CJ cant carry the load on every down. now I know he is a good back but lets be honest he isnt flash anymore.. Like the other comment made maybe the extra millions he is paid is just to much for him to carry. The offense was out of sync and played worse than most pee wee teams ive coached and seen play.. The defense was just there.. they didnt do anything out of the norm but stand there and watch adrian run past them and then they persude after him like they was waiting for him to break the law and then they tried to stop him.. on passing the texans was throwing all over the field and making plays... I dont understand why a team like the titans could just walk on the field and do nothing... The titans are nashvilles team.. I was told once I watched the titans play i would be addictied to the team. but to be honest i am not.. i know they are rebuilding from the ground up but at some point they need to pull their heads out of the turf and play football. I wish the Titans would have impressed me but it just didnt happen.. I do plan on coming back someday to watch them and I would like a better show of power and smarts than I seen this sunday... The best part of the game was honoring all those women who fought and won the battle against cancer. They truly was the best players on the field... Good luck players and coaches my prayers are with you...
I'm sure things will turn around when they get those new stadium improvements.
CJ has ZERO credibility. Stalls, strikes, quits during pre-season, practice camp, and now "carries" the ball 10x for 45 yds? I think that $56. million went to his head instead of his legs.
Losing Britt for the season doesn't help, but Ringer shows promise.
We shall see.
QB Schaub and his receivers were just that good.
ar-61: And their girlfriends and wives put a little more starch in their shorts.
At least we didn't get beat as bad as the Colts. Next week should be a
real thrill as we battle them for 3 or 4th place in the division. The
Cheerleaders remained feisty and got more viewing time as the game
went along!
Chris Johnson says that he is not the problem and that he is doing all that he can to get the running game going. I thought Chris Johnson was a PLAYMAKER and didn't need anyone else to make plays for him. It looks like he has lost a step and is sluggish and hesitant after he gets the ball. Since you consider yourself a PLAYMAKER, Chris Johnson, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM WITH THE RUNNING GAME!!!
If the Titans play next week like they have over the last 2 games, it wouldn't surprise me in the least bit if the Colts get their FIRST VICTORY of the season this Sunday.
I am no football scout but I go to every game, and I thought that CJ began losing his acceleration at the end of last season. He has not shown any acceleration (at least to this untrained eye) this season, and he failed to beat a linebacker in a one-on-one, open field encounter on Sunday. This is not the first time Ringer has come into the game for just a few carries and managed to average far more YPC. Maybe some of the running problems are because of the offensive line as CJ so adamantly suggested, but I think CJ deserves the most blame. If he really were the playmaker he thinks he is, he would have been able to bust at least one home run carry with all the attempts he has gotten thus far, regardless of the quality of the offensive line.
Regarding the defense, it was unexcusably and inexplicably flat this week. Everyone looked tired and uninspired, even though this was a game for first place following the bye week. I put that on the coaches as much as I do the players.
As for the calls for Locker, I want to see him play, but I do not think Hasselbeck is the issue. We (the fans) ought to be calling for more play time for Donnie Avery and the tight ends, given Lavelle Hawkins' and Damian Williams' adversity to catching the football and Hawkins' repeated failures to line up in the correct formation. When CJ can't run and at least two of the receivers cannot catch, there is little more Hasselbeck can do.
In the end, I am afraid the Titans really are who we all thought they were going to be, and not the team that teased us early on. At least if the Colts win this week, they will hamper their hopes of getting Andrew Luck.
Put him on special teams for a few games and let him run some kicks back. Then we'll see if he's turned "chicken" or not. Perhaps that will give him a little more appreciation for the offense and the role he is supposed to play in it. He needs to do something to earn that paycheck. All he's doing now is taking up somebody else's roster spot!
Next, draft Trent Richardson.
CJ need not point fingers at anyone unless he includes his own rich ass in that point. I'm sure I've seen worse running backs in the NFL, but for the life of me can't remember who. Bud should have made the majority of his pay performance based, then you'd see his ass run. When your pay depends on how well YOU run the ball, you get off your ass and play hard! You beg for the ball every down. I've seen rookies try harder. But then, they don't have a $54 million dollar contract in their pocket.
He isn't the only problem by any stretch, but since he's talking it's a good place to start.

TROTWOOD, Ohio (WDTN) – Despite a valiant effort from city leaders to stop it, the Trotwood Target will be closing.
The mayor and city manager made their pitch to Target corporate in Minneapolis Monday, delivering a petition signed by almost 2500 residents. But officials were not swayed, and still plan to close the Shiloh Springs Rd. store in May.
The city manager did ensure that the company took responsibility for maintaining the building and providing security.
Target also agreed to work with other retailers to develop the property, a move it has had success with in the past.

After Gorbachev gave a speech at the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa in Phoenix on April 28, Thunderbird School of Global Management Interim President Barbara Barrett, who helped arrange Gorbachev's speech, learned that both Bidwell and Gorbachev were headed to New York City and asked Bidwill, an experienced private pilot, whether he would be willing to fly the Nobel Peace Prize winner. "I was honored to be able to do it," Bidwill said.
Samson's home run for charity

Miami Marlins President David Samson completed a 52.4-mile, charity-driven run from Pompano Beach to Marlins Park on April 27. Samson has now raised more than $600,000 for 10 charities. He started the run at 7 a.m. and entered Marlins Park at roughly 6:42 p.m. Four days after the run, Samson said, "I feel great. It took me two days to recover, and today I ran for the first time since Friday. I took four days off." Samson had done one training run of 30 miles and several 26-mile runs, but acknowledged he was "more sore than I anticipated" after the April 27 run. In looking back, Samson said, "Every five miles I picked up a new runner to join me, a runner from one of the charities. At mile 45, I had two IVs. I had four IV bags at the end of the run in the training room. I really don't remember the entire final 20 minutes of the run. There was a check presentation and a pregame interview on the field and I don't remember any of that. I was that dehydrated." Asked what he ate and drank during the run, he said, "Water and Gatorade and I had some pizza and some GU gel. But after 30 miles, I couldn't eat or drink anything. I burned between 8,000 to 9,000 calories for the day, and I didn't replace it well." What's next on his endurance quest? He said he wasn't exactly sure, "But there will be another something."

text: Cook has a much higher opinion of himself than his play warrants. He is athletic...but inconsistent as many have pointed out. He flashes...but he disappears too. Gronk...Whitten...Gonzales...they don't disappear. They keep a defense busy. Cook did not do this. Would like to keep him...but for the right amount. If someone wants to pay him 7-10 million a year...go for it. Good luck with that.

CENTENNIAL, Colo. - Competition heated up Friday at the Denver Broncos' headquarters at players continued to compete for roster spots.
Head Coach John Fox said after the practice that he is looking for players to compete 1-on-1, especially during training camp and the preseason.
"We even do that in the season once we pick the football team. You get a lot of scouted looks but sometimes that 1-on-1 type of mentality helps them in their competitive nature, you are building that back again," he said.
"We want to be a complete team and not one better than the other, but equal all the way across, special teams as well," Safety T.J. Ward said in response to a question about how well the defense is playing. "Because special teams is very important and we are all equal and if we're all playing great our chances of winning are very high."
Tight end Julius Thomas was asked Friday about the position he is fighting for, and admitted to pushing for Offensive Coordinator Adam Gase to give him a handoff or two.
But he added, "I don't really care what position I go down on the depth chart as. They can put me at defensive end, and I'll go out there and play tight end, wide receiver, slot, it doesn't matter. I don't view myself as any position. I just want to be a guy that can go out there and make plays and help my team out."
Fox also told reporters that running back Brennan Clay was added to the injury report with a right thigh bruise he described as "nothing serious."

The National Park Service, along with its partners, will open a new visitor center in Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area (SMMNRA) near Los Angeles on Saturday, June 9, 2012.
Located at King Gillette Ranch in the historic heart of the Santa Monica Mountains, the interagency building unifies the local, state and federal park system for SMMNRA's 35 million annual visitors.
Named for the congressman who introduced legislation to create the SMMNRA in 1978, the Anthony C. Beilenson Visitor Center will be jointly managed by the National Park Service (NPS), California State Parks (CSP), Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy (SMMC) and the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority (MRCA). It replaces an existing NPS visitor center located outside the park boundary in a poor visibility area.
Beilenson, along with other elected officials, will attend the grand opening event on June 9 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The public is invited to tour the facilities and take part in a variety of ranger-led activities suitable for all ages.
"Through the common vision of this long-lasting relationship with our partners, we now have a one-stop shop for visitors," said SMMNRA Acting Superintendent Lorenza Fong. "Whether they're visiting local, state or federal parks and beaches, the experience should be seamless."
Few locations in California offer in one setting the opportunity to understand a cross-section of California's rich history, including sites that represent Native American settlement, Spanish missions and adobes, Mexican ranchos, California homesteading, and modern movie-making.
One of the most stunning locales in the Santa Monica Mountains, 588-acre King Gillette Ranch is located at the confluence of five major tributaries and offers a rare, unspoiled view of California's rich archaeological cultural and historic resources.
Its broad meadows and low ridgelines serve as a wildlife corridor in the geographic center of the range.
The ranch includes the 1928 mansion designed by Wallace Neff for razor magnate King C. Gillette.
"The opening of the visitors center fulfills a 30-year effort by public agencies, elected officials, conservationists and community members to provide an educational and recreational gateway for millions of visitors," said Joseph T. Edmiston, FAICP, executive director of the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy. "We want to attract those who have yet to experience the astounding beauty of the Santa Monica Mountains."
The visitor center is located in the original horse stables, re-purposed to achieve LEED certification and become the first "net zero" visitor center within the National Park Service. It produces all of its energy needs through a 95 kilowatt photovoltaic solar energy system.
"The ability of this multi-agency facility to promote the history and the environment of the area to all visitors will be priceless," said Craig Sap, district superintendent of the Angeles District of California State Parks.
The four partners jointly acquired the ranch for $35 million in 2005, with 11 separate funding sources and an almost unprecedented partnership between federal, state and local government, as well as private donors.
The American Reinvestment and Recovery Act provided $9.5 million in funding for the construction of the visitor center, in addition to financial and in-kind contributions from MRCA and SMMC. The MRCA manages the surrounding park, which includes hiking trails, beautiful grassy picnic areas, a pond and dormitory facilities for MRCA's overnight educational camps.
Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area (SMMNRA) is the largest urban national park in the country, encompassing more than 150,000 acres of mountains and coastline in Ventura and Los Angeles counties. It comprises a seamless network of local, state, and federal parks interwoven with private lands and communities.
Complimentary two-hour parking is available adjacent to the visitor center. A larger parking lot administered by the MRCA is nearby for a $7 all-day permit. For more information, visit the park's Website at www.nps.gov/samo/ .

Sword Art Online: Hollow Fragment Coming To Vita This Summer
Fantasy aficionados should appreciate this.
Bandai Namco has announced that the action/RPG, Sword Art Online: Hollow Fragment, will land on North American store shelves this summer. It'll arrive as a digital release exclusively on the PlayStation Vita.
The title launched in Japan this past week, and it features dungeon-crawling action goodness with dating sim elements. Players get to experience a robust character creation system, and they can team up with other Vita owners and AI-controlled characters. Obviously, the multiplayer aspect is a big part of the game, although we wonder how the dating sim parts come into play...
We've been saying for a long time now that Sony's portable needs more AAA exclusive software. Not sure if Sword Art Online qualifies, but it's certainly a niche title. And that's something.

Looking for abnormal volume stand-outs, we combed through the closing trading data for the Russell 1000 components, and found these stand-outs that traders will be interested to watch during Tuesday's upcoming session. To compile this list, we first calculated "normal" volume for each stock by computing the average over the trailing three month period, and then we compared that figure against the volume seen during the session. The result is a list of those stocks with the most abnormally high volume.
Topping the list was Mallinckrodt (NYSE: MNK), with 20.8x normal volume. In the prior session, MNK traded 23.63 million shares, versus normal volume of about 1.13 million. Mallinckrodt, a leading global specialty pharmaceuticals company, and Questcor Pharmaceuticals, a high-growth biopharmaceutical company, yesterday announced that Mallinckrodt will acquire Questcor in a transaction valued at approximately $5.6 billion. The transaction was unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies. Subject to customary closing conditions, the transaction is currently expected to be completed in the third calendar quarter of 2014.
In the #2 spot, CapitalSource (NYSE: CSE) saw 14.8x normal trading volume, with 28.39 million shares trading in the session versus the usual 1.92 million. PacWest Bancorp (PACW) announced that yesterday, it completed its previously announced merger with CapitalSource (CSE). CapitalSource Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CapitalSource, merged with and into PacWest's banking subsidiary, Pacific Western Bank.
In the #3 spot, TFS Financial (NASD: TFSL) saw 3.8x normal trading volume, with 953,400 shares trading in the session versus the usual 249,465.

Hawaiian Electric Industries (NYSE: HE) ranked #4 on the list, with 3.5x normal volume, based on the approximately 2.79 million shares trading in the last session, versus a calculated normal volume of 790,123. Interestingly, back on April 2, the Company issued a press release that said, "Today the common stock of Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (NYSE: HE) has been subject to abnormal trading volumes and substantial selling, apparently based on the release of a research report that contained multiple inaccuracies and made assertions about the potential need for the company to cut its dividend. While the company does not normally comment on statements made in analyst research reports, we further wish to assure market participants that the board of directors has not cut the dividend, nor is a dividend cut currently contemplated. Decisions with respect to dividends are made by the company's board of directors on a quarterly basis based on the company's performance and expectations at the time of the decision. The company and its predecessor company have paid dividends continuously since 1901, and the dividend has been stable at $1.24 per share annually since 1998."
And finally, Splunk (NASD: SPLK) ranked #5 on the list, with 3.5x normal volume, seeing about 8.28 million shares change hands, compared to normal volume of 2.34 million. Splunk (SPLK), a provider of a software platform for real-time operational intelligence, announced yesterday that Clickatell has improved its customer service solutions with Splunk Enterprise. With Splunk software, Clickatell reports that it has optimized the uptime and reliability of its services by collecting, monitoring and analyzing valuable customer information in real time, such as errors, usage and other important events. Clickatell executives also use Splunk dashboards to monitor the key business performance indicators that impact revenue.
Comparing these stocks on a trailing twelve month basis, below is a relative stock price performance chart, with each of the symbols shown in a different color as labeled in the legend at the bottom:
Here's a table of the full top 10 stocks with abnormal volume:
|Degree Above Normal
|Mallinckrodt plc (NYSE: MNK)
|CapitalSource Inc (NYSE: CSE)
|TFS Financial Corp (NASD: TFSL)
|Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. (NYSE: HE)
|Splunk Inc (NASD: SPLK)
|Liberty Global plc (NASD: LBTYK)
|Dunkin' Brands Group, Inc. (NASD: DNKN)
|Visa Inc (NYSE: V)

The over-enthusiastic cyclist
If it involves pedalling then I'm probably into it…
More Spanish riding
October 22, 2015Posted by on
After a long summer of guiding cyclists from Lands End to John O Groats, I was ready for a holiday myself. We were off to Andalusia in Southern Spain again, though further up the coast in the region of Almeria this time. The bike chosen to gatecrash this holiday was my Planet X Uncle John, giving me off-road options as well as the usual road miles. It's not always easy to find route info before you go, so if you're heading out that way for some cycling here's three decent rides that I'd recommend:
The Ruta TransCabrera
This route crosses the Sierra Cabrera range. The South side is off-road, climbing up from Sopalmo to the top (or descending if you'd rather) whilst the North side is a quiet tarmac road with some steep sections. The locals seem to do the gravel road on short travel hard tail mountain bikes, but my 'Uncle Juan' was ideal and made the tarmac less tedious.
I'd been really excited about this and it didn't disappoint. 8 miles of a winding gravel road with stunning views, what's not to like? I admit that the first mile with its 10% slopes had me worried, but it slackens off to an average of about 5%.
When you finally get to the junction at the top, turn left and left again to tackle a punishing 25% climb to get an amazing view from the 3000ft summit of the range. It's been freshly tarmacked and feels a bit like Hardknott Pass, which is great if you're getting a bit homesick. Don't pinch my Strava KOM though.
Bedar and beyond
Putting the slicks back on, it was time for some road riding. This time I headed inland and once I'd got off the busy (but totally safe) A370 I was climbing past Bedar on a stunning road with superb hairpins before finally dropping down towards El Marchal. I rode on further to get the distance in, but even if you then just climbed back up and descended back past Bedar you'll have had a decent ride with a proper climb.
Though much of rural Spain is in a state of crumbling decay, these roads are immaculate. Wide, quiet and flawlessly surfaced in that light grey tarmac that the Spanish seem to produce. On a weekday morning I probably saw one car every half hour, if that. It's almost like the roads are bigger and better than they need to be, but it makes for amazing cycling so I'm not complaining. In fact I'm already scheming when I can get out there again…
El Cortijo Grande / Sierra Cabrera
Heading out through Turre and up towards the little mountain resort of El Cortijo Grande is a road that has become my favourite climb ever. The road takes you up into the hills and apart from a short section that is more like a farm track, the surface is superb. It's well signed for 'Sierra Cabrera' so just sit back and enjoy the views and intricate hairpins. In an hours worth of climbing I saw one car and one man herding his goats. At one point you climb between a few houses in a remote little village then you're back in the wilderness again. Eventually you approach the junction of the Ruta TransCabrera so you're obviously obliged to tackle the extra section right to the top. I descended down the Ruta Transcabrera road to Turre to make a loop of it, though this loop in reverse could be equally rewarding.
Get yourselves out there. It's great riding and the weather's far better than the UK…

Giants win opener as world tourney looms
GIANTS SPRING TRAINING World Baseball Classic has players stepping things up
Updated 11:33 pm, Saturday, February 23, 2013
Scottsdale, Ariz. -- Manager Bruce Bochy must feel like part of his spring preparation is practicing perfect punch lines. He nailed one after the Giants beat the Angels 4-1 in Saturday's Cactus League opener.
Pablo Sandoval, on base after hitting an RBI single, nearly got picked off by Angels pitcher Billy Buckner. Sandoval bolted for second on the next pitch and kept going, 270 feet in all, to score on Jackson Williams' double into the left-field corner.
Sandoval made it, but all 10,779 fans at Scottsdale Stadium could see that the Panda's tank was nearly dry.
"It's hard to carry that piano on your back," Bochy said. "Then he stopped and played a song between third and home."
Sandoval was not about to fib and say that song was "Flight of the Bumblebee."
"When I stepped on third base," he said, "home plate was moving away from me."
The upcoming World Baseball Classic makes this an unusual spring for Sandoval and the other nine Giants who are going.
He had to try to score from first in a meaningless game just nine days after Valentine's Day because the Venezuelan third-base coach surely will send him in the same situation in two weeks.
Similarly, Ryan Vogelsong needs to build up to 50 or 60 pitches a game before he leaves in a week. He got halfway there Saturday in two innings against Angels minor-leaguers.
Vogelsong allowed two hits and a walk, which was not necessarily bad. He said it helps to pitch "in traffic" to practice working out of jams.
"Mentally, I need to be as close to the first game of the season as I can be," he said. "In certain situations, if you're concentrated and focused it could overcome maybe the lack of being physically ready. The mental part of it is just as important."
That message he got directly from the U.S. pitching coach, Greg Maddux, in a phone call.
In another example, the entire stadium had to know Angel Pagan would try to steal second after hitting a leadoff single in the fourth inning. Team Puerto Rico is going to need his legs to be in July shape soon.
Eh, Pagan probably would have run without the WBC looming.
"I'm getting ready for the season," he said. "People are like, 'You've got to speed it up for the Classic.' I'm not trying to speed it up for the Classic. I'm getting ready for another championship season, and that starts today. You have to go out there and get something out of it. Because it's the first game I don't have to take it easy."
Bochy was happy with how "crisp" his team looked in the opener.
Relievers Jeremy Affeldt, Sergio Romo and George Kontos each pitched scoreless innings. Chad Gaudin, bidding for the final bullpen spot, pitched two innings and allowed the Angels' run, which should not have scored. Sandoval dropped a potential inning-ending double-play chopper and got only one out as the run scored.
Buster Posey caught the first three innings and scalded an inside pitch the other way for an out. Outfield prospect Gary Brown doubled into the left-field corner and scored on a pair of groundballs.
Giants 4, Angels 1
Notable: The Giants scored their first run of the spring in classic small-ball form, as Angel Pagan singled, stole second, advanced on a Marco Scutaro grounder to the right side and came home on a Pablo Sandoval single. ... Ryan Vogelsong threw 30 pitches in two shutout innings. He hopes to be at 50 to 60 by the World Baseball Classic, which begins early next month. ... Utility infield candidate Kensuke Tanaka talked to about 20 Japanese journalists after he played the second half of the game and went 0-for-2.
Quotable: "It's nice, man, to be back on the field and be wearing the same uni I was wearing in the World Series, getting to see all my teammates. It's special." - second baseman Marco Scutaro
Sunday's game: Giants (Matt Cain) vs. Cubs (Jeff Samardzija), Mesa, 12:05 p.m. PST. Radio: 680.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — At the end of January, a colt named Itsmyluckyday was on the fast track to the Kentucky Derby. The son of Lawyer Ron had just beaten 2-year-old champ Shanghai Bobby in the Grade III Holy Bull at Gulfstream Park, and was pointed to the Grade I Florida Derby at the end of March.
Itsmyluckyday, trained by Eddie Plesa Jr. would go off as the 7-5 favorite in the biggest race of the Gulfstream season, but would have to settle for second behind the imposing Orb. He was only beaten 2 3/4 lengths.
One would think, off those two performances, that Itsmyluckyday would head to Kentucky with more than a puncher's chance to make some noise in the Run for the Roses. Why not? Despite the loss, Itsmyluckyday is one of four horses (Verrazano, Revolutionary and Goldencents are the others) to have a speed number of 100 or more.
The horse has five wins in 10 career starts, even though four of them have come in the Sunshine State (two at Gulfstream, two at Calder).
Yet, when the morning line was drawn at Churchill Downs on Wednesday, Itsmyluckyday was dismissed at odds of 15-1 — one of five colts at that number — by oddsmaker Mike Battaglia.
Plesa didin't get it.
"You've got a person making odds on what he sees on paper," the 64-year-old trainer said on the Churchill backstretch. "The horses are like our children. If your child is playing baseball, and he's sitting on the bench, do you think your child should be on the field? Absolutely. Does it hurt a little bit? Yeah. But life is what it is. Is he getting the respect that maybe I feel he deserves? Probably not."
After the win in the Holy Bull, Plesa backed off on his training on Itsmyluckyday. He said he never worked his star very hard before the Florida Derby. That, afterall, was not the goal.
"The Florida Derby, as much as I would have liked to win it, that's not what I'm here for," Plesa said. "I look at this horse (now) and say I've done the right thing. He's doing great. I wouldn't trade him for any horse in the race. I'm not a fool. You'll hear from him in the race."
This will be the second horse Plesa starts in the Kentucky Derby. In 1999, he saddled the filly, Three Rings, to a 19th place finish. Elvis Trujillo, who has ridden Itsmyluckyday in his last two starts, will be riding in the Kentucky Derby for the first time.

David DeVries
Member from:
Orland Park, IL
Throughout his entire life, David DeVries has always had one true passion in his life: Singing.
David has been singing in vocal ensembles nonstop since the age of 5. His love of a cappella music began during his sophomore year at Chicago Christian High School when his dad introduced him to The Bobs. During his senior year he entered CCHS's Fine Arts Week talent show with a few different ensembles and received 2nd place for his quartet arrangement of the Beatles song "She Loves You" (his first ever arrangement) and 1st place for his trio's performance of "Share a Load" by The Bobs. He received CCHS's Choir Award at graduation.
After graduating in 2008, he immediately started arranging more songs and formed an all-male Beatles a cappella cover quartet, which eventually evolved into the 3-male/1-female group Never Odd Or Even. They sang at gigs ranging from baseball games to weddings to a float in a 4th of July parade. David and one of his fellow NOOE members attended ACappellaFest in 2009, where he first became interested in beatboxing and first saw Voices In Your Head perform.
In 2010 David moved to Elgin and attended Elgin Community College, where he studied Music Production. There he met singers and, inspired by Voices In Your Head, founded the unofficial campus a cappella group called ECCentric, for which he was president, musical director, song arranger, bass, and vocal percussionist. One of his other groups at ECC was an all-male trio called Tri-Winning, who competed in the 2011 ECC's Got Talent competition, and fittingly won 3rd place.
Since joining Voices, David has competed in the Chicago Harmony Sweepstakes A Cappella Festival 2 years in a row; his first year in a quintet called BeatVox where he won the award for Best Original Arrangement, and his second year with a trio called The Triad, who took 2nd place in addition to netting David his 2nd consecutive arranging award at Sweeps.
David continues to further his career in a cappella music, constantly working on new arrangements, recordings, videos, and all other types of media he can think of. He'll also give a dollar to the first person to mention to him that they bothered to read all this.

View Thread: Scoble: Interview with the Vista MCE team?
Hi Robert,
I was wondering if there are any plans to get an interview with the Windows Vista Media Center team? A while back they announced that they would be opening up the product so regular developers can use the same APIs and mark up that the MCE team uses to create the applications that look like they belong with MCE rather than an add on.
It would be great to see how much it has progressed and what the developer experience is going to be like.

The CTO this week presented a report to the Treasury, the Department for Transport and John Penrose, the Minister for Tourism, calling for the existing four-tier banding system (determined by the distance from London to the capital of the destination) introduced in November 2009 to be replaced with a two-tier system. Such a change would place European destinations in one bracket and all other destinations in another.
According to the CTO, an increase of just £1 to the amount of APD paid on flights to Europe would allow for significant reductions (of up to £50) to the amount of APD paid on long-haul flights. As short-haul flights account for around 75 per cent of all flights from Britain, these changes would mean that the total revenue collected from APD would increase.
The CTO says the changes would help to halt the decline in the number of people visiting the Caribbean, encourage a greater shift to lower carbon travel, and more fairly represent the emissions generated by different flights.
According to statistics released by Virgin Atlantic, flights to Band "A" destinations (such as Europe) account for 45.4 per cent of all carbon dioxide emissions but contribute just 36 per cent of total APD revenue. Band "C" destinations, such as the Caribbean, account for 19.2 per cent of emissions but contribute 22 per cent of APD revenue.
"This tax is discriminating against long-haul travel. It's also hugely unfair because it penalises destinations where there is no alternative [to flying]," said Senator the Hon Ricky Skerritt, chairman of the CTO. "If you tax flights to France from the UK, passengers can choose to reach their destination by ferry, car or rail. The Caribbean doesn't have that luxury."
Mr Penrose said this week that changes to APD were being considered to "reduce the impact on passengers' bills".
A spokesman for the Treasury said it welcomed the report.
"The Government will explore changes to the aviation tax system, including switching from a per-passenger to a per‑plane duty," he said. "Major changes will be subject to consultation."
The CTO's report, which has been drawn up following negotiations with British Government ministers in September, also condemns the negative impact that changes to APD have had on Caribbean economies.
Since the introduction of the banding system in 2009, the number of British visitors to the Caribbean has fallen by 12 per cent, and to some islands by a quarter.
Adam Stewart, the chief executive of Sandals Resorts, this week warned that the Caribbean is "dangerously dependent" on tourism.

Some information about Rachel Weisz:
Rachel Hannah Weisz ( /ˈvaɪs/ "vice"; born 7 March 1970) is an English film and theatre actress and fashion model. She started her acting career at Trinity Hall, Cambridge University, where she co-founded the theatrical group Cambridge Talking Tongues. The group was awarded the Student Drama Award for the improvised piece Slight Possession during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe by The Guardian.
Weisz started working in television, appearing in Inspector Morse, the British miniseries The Scarlet and the Black, and the television movie Advocates II. She made her film debut in the1994 film Death Machine, but her breakthrough role came in the 1996 movie Chain Reaction, leading to a high-profile role as Evelyn Carnahan-O'Connell in the films The Mummy, in 1999, andThe Mummy Returns in 2001. Other notable films featuring Weisz are Enemy at the Gates,About a Boy, Constantine, The Fountain and The Constant Gardener, for which she received anAcademy Award, a Golden Globe and a Screen Actors Guild award for her supporting role asTessa Quayle.
Weisz also works in theatre. Her stage breakthrough was the 1994 revival of Noel Coward's playDesign for Living, which earned her the 'London Critics' Circle Award for the most promising newcomer. Weisz's performances also include the 1999 Donmar Warehouse production of Tennessee Williams' Suddenly Last Summer, and their 2009 revival of A Streetcar Named Desire. Her portrayal of Blanche DuBois in the latter play earned her the Critics' Circle Theatre Award for Best Actress of 2009.
Early life and background
Weisz was born in Westminster, London, England, and grew up in the Hampstead Garden Suburb. Her mother, Edith Ruth (née Teich), is a teacher turned psychotherapist who was born in Vienna, Austria. Her father, George Weisz, was a Hungarian-born inventor and engineer.Her parents fled to England during the Second World War. Weisz's father is Jewish and her mother is of Jewish, "Catholic Viennese", and Italian descent. Her maternal grandfather, Alexander Teich, was a secretary of the World Union of Jewish Students; whilst one of her maternal great-grandmothers was from Italy. She has a sister, Minnie, who is a photographer and curator.
Weisz's parents valued the arts, and encouraged her and her sister to form opinions of their own by introducing them to family debates. Weisz left North London Collegiate School and attended Benenden for one year before studying her A levels at St Pauls Girls School. Her parents ultimately divorced. Weisz eventually graduated from St Paul's Girls' School. Weisz claimed that she was a bad student until an English Literature teacher inspired her at the age of sixteen.
Weisz started modeling when she was fourteen. In 1984, she gained public attention when she turned down an offer to star in King David, along with Richard Gere. After school, she entered Trinity Hall, Cambridge, where she graduated with a 2:1 in English. During her university years, she appeared in various student productions, co-founding a student drama group called Cambridge Talking Tongues, which went on to win a Guardian Student Drama Award at the 1991 Edinburgh Fringe Festival for an improvised piece called Slight Possession. The group existed until 1993. Once she finished her college education, Weisz was offered a place at drama school, which she rejected in order to look for work. In those years, she started taking small television roles. Despite her rising career, she felt deeply unhappy at times, having days in which she could not drag herself out of bed because of her unhappiness. This situation led to her undergoing therapy three times a week for five years.
Personal life
Weisz began dating American filmmaker and producer Darren Aronofsky in the summer of 2001. They met backstage at London's Almeida Theatre, where she was starring in The Shape of Things. Weisz moved to New York City with Aronofsky the following year; in 2005, they were engaged. Their son, Henry Chance, was born on 31 May 2006 in New York City. The couple resided in the East Village in Manhattan. In November 2010, Weisz and Aronofsky announced that they had been apart for months, but remain close friends and are committed to raising their son together in New York. In March 2011, it was reported that Weisz and actor Daniel Craig had been dating since December 2010. Weisz and Craig married on June 22, 2011 in a private New York ceremony, with only four guests in attendance, including Weisz's son and Craig's daughter.
In 2009, Weisz express her views on Botox to Harper's Bazaar – "It should be banned for actors, as steroids are for sportsmen. Acting is all about expression; why would you want to iron out a frown?."
Weisz is represented by Creative Artists Agency. In 2001 she was involved in a traffic accident, while traveling in a cab that was hit by a truck, Weisz was unharmed. On 7 July 2007, she presented at the American leg of Live Earth, along with Alec Baldwin and Kevin Bacon.
During her career she has been featured on the covers of magazines such as Vogue and Esquire. She serves as a muse to fashion designer Narciso Rodriguez, and was named L'Oréal's global ambassador in 2010. Weisz has admitted being an avid Elvis Presley fan, and visited Graceland mansion in 2001. [Source]

A precinct chairman in Choctaw County and a longtime Ron Paul volunteer, blogger and radio talk show host joined others today in calling on Paul's Oklahoma campaign coordinator, Al Gerhart, to resign.
The two said they are "apalled" by the email Gerhart sent Cleveland County GOP official Lisa Shrieves.
Howard Houchen, party activist and blogger, said Gerhart's attack on Shrieves is "unprofessional…hurts the party."
Kaye Beach, the conservative blogger and longtime Paul supporter, said she is writing the Paul national campaign office to complain about Gerhart. She said Gerhart "doesn't speak for the Ron Paul people I work with."
