DETROIT – The Sharks had just one scheduled practice on their 10-day road trip, set to take place on Friday in Detroit prior to the fifth and final game against the Red Wings. It was canceled, though, as the coaching staff opted for rest rather than work.
The result was a 3-0 loss to the Red Wings in which the Sharks were sloppy in their own zone, were smoked in the faceoff circle, surrendered a plethora of odd-man rushes, and took eight minor penalties. They just couldn't keep pace with a Detroit team that was playing its second game in as many nights.
San Jose looked like a club that has held just a single solitary practice since the season began on Oct. 12.
"Some breakdowns, guys not being above [the puck], some giveaways in our own end, we're kind of leaving [the defensive zone] early," Logan Couture said. "We just don't seem like we're dedicated to defense like we were at the end [of] last year."
[KURZ: Instant Replay: Sharks blanked by Wings, end road trip with thud]
"It wasn't very good tonight," added Martin Jones, who lost his third in a row in goal. "Too many penalties, too many turnovers. Just wasn't very good tonight."
The start was actually a decent one, as the Sharks were attempting to put Thursday's third period collapse in Pittsburgh behind them, but Detroit eventually took over. Gustav Nyquist broke the scoreless tie four minutes into the second period, and added to the Red Wings' lead with a second marker about 11 minutes later.
On the first, Paul Martin was caught flat-footed in the offensive zone, leading to a two-on-one rush by Detroit. Nyquist abruptly stopped on the faceoff dot in front of Justin Braun, and rifled a shot though. On the second, Matt Nieto had control of the puck and was headed up the ice before he stumbled and turned it over to Ryan Sproul, who found Nyquist in the slot.
A bad line change resulted in Andreas Athanasiou powering a slap shot to Jones' far side six minutes into the third period, giving Detroit a commanding three-goal lead.
"We were late everywhere tonight," Pete DeBoer said. "When you're a step behind a good team they expose you, and I think that was the story. We'll have to go back and figure out why, and get our game back in a better place."
"We played into their hands. They're a transition team, a speed team, and if you're going to play east-west and turn the puck over they're going to make you pay for it. We talked about it, but we still fell into that trap. Obviously the penalties didn't help, and we're playing catch up all night."
Among those penalties was a double minor to Joe Pavelski for spearing Steve Ott, just a few seconds after Athanasiou's goal. The captain seemed agitated for much of the night.
Pavelski said he didn't think he got a whole lot of Ott with his stick, but "it's a play you don't want to make."
DeBoer didn't take issue with the play which nullified what would have been a Sharks power play after a Drew Miller interference.
"Pav is a competitor. He was probably our best player tonight. He's competing right until the final buzzer," DeBoer said. "I don't have a problem with that. It doesn't bother me."
The power play, though, is one area that the coach may need to focus on when the Sharks finally get a practice in on Monday at home. Despite being together for so many years, the top unit seems tentative with the puck and is misfiring on passes that are typically routine.
On one power play in the second period when the game was still scoreless, Pavelski was open in front of the net, but Patrick Marleau missed him on what would have been a tap-in goal. The Sharks finished 0-for-4 with a man advantage and have just one goal in a manned net this season during five-on-four play.
What has to change?
"Quite a few things," Couture said. "We're breaking in fine, [but] we're too stationary, I think. I don't know if we're moving the puck well enough. Not attacking holes, not shooting the puck and getting it back."
The Sharks will open up a three-game homestand on Tuesday with the Ducks. There is work to do before that.
"We're 3-3. That's the good news," DeBoer said. "I think we've played some good hockey, but we have a lot of things we've got to clean up, too."
Jones said: "Obviously it wasn't the way we wanted to end the road trip. We'll bounce back, and we've got a lot of games left."

Shane Potter, 573-882-3835
COLUMBIA, Mo. – The University of Missouri Extension 4-H State Meats Judging contest on Feb. 6 drew 38 competing 4-H members. More than 50 FFA students also participated as practice for upcoming events, said Shane Potter, MU Extension 4-H youth development specialist.
Held in partnership with the MU Collegiate Meats Judging Team and the Missouri Association of Meat Processors, the contest gives participants an opportunity to hone their judging skills and explore career and educational options, Potter said.
Youth involved with the meat judging program develop key life skills to aid in their future career success, he said. "Through involvement in a 4-H judging team, members must make rapid, logical decisions and defend their decisions via oral reasons. Therefore, students improve their ability for critical thinking and accurate communication. In addition, students become organized and self-disciplined, learn to accept criticism, develop self-confidence and become leaders."
Alumni from the program report that success in the meat judging competition has translated to employment opportunities, internships and scholarships.
The 2016 contest included two age divisions: Junior for ages 8-13 and Senior for ages 14-18.
The top 10 junior competitors were Anne Marie Quinn of Monroe City, first; Alaina Link of Moberly, second; Rose Quinn of Monroe City, third; Quincy Wiegand of Cairo, fourth; John Paul Quinn of Monroe City, fifth; Austin Mitchell of Huntsville, sixth; Anya Cailleach of Riverside, seventh; Lyndsey Conley of Parkville, eighth; Addie Thomas of Weatherby Lake, ninth; and Kiley Braun of Kansas City, 10th. The top three junior teams represented the following counties: Monroe, first; Randolph - Green Team, second; and Platte, third.
In the senior division, the top 10 individuals were William Crain of Monroe City, first; Samuel Anibal of Carthage, second; Anna Link of Moberly, third; Truman Byergo of Dearborn, fourth; Toby Taylor of Kansas City, fifth; Sydney Baughman of Moberly, sixth; Garrett Taylor of Kansas City, seventh; Tori Brumbaugh of Moberly, eighth; Dana Sherman of Warrenton, ninth; and Bethany Conley of Parkville, 10th. The top three senior teams represented the following counties: Randolph, first; Platte, second; and Elkhorn-Warren, third.
The members of the championship team from Randolph County will advance to the National 4-H Meats Judging Contest held in the fall as part of the American Royal.

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
Name : Aki Ross
Born in San Francisco in 2038. Orphaned at an early age when her parents were attacked by Phantoms, Aki was raised by an aunt in New York City. As only child, Aki grew up to be a strong and independent woman, finding pleasure in solitude and thought. Following the footsteps of her father, a highly respected scientist, Aki dedicated her life to understanding biotechnology. Often outspoken in her opinions and ideas, Aki became an expert in her field at an early age. She would travel between the barrier cities conducting experiments and lecturing to other scientists.
In addition to her study of science, Aki also trained at the Houston Military Academy (HMA), headquarters for all military training. Focusing on aerospace education, Aki also received environmental and wasteland reconnaissance training. It is at the HMA where she began a relationship with Gray Edwards. Upon her graduation from HMA, Aki returned to New York Barrier City to complete her doctorate, while Gray was subsequently assigned to the Deep Eyes. Despite the distance, they continued their relationship, often commuting between the two cities between Gray�s missions to the wasteland and other barrier cities. Under the supervision of Dr. Sid, Aki began research on the wave-theory that he had developed.
Aki became a dedicated scientist and advocate to Dr. Sid�s theory to try and eliminate the Phantoms without using excessive force. However, in a freak accident during an experiment, Aki was infected with Phantom particles. Dr. Sid isolated the Phantom particles using wave-theory, yet time was running out. Determined to save her life, she and Dr. Sid set out to find the 8 Spirits to complete the wave-theory and destroy Aki�s infestation. Not knowing the magnitude of her infection, Aki isolates herself from everyone, including Gray.
Name : Gray Edwards
Born in Chicago in 2034, Gray Edwards was raised in a loving family. The eldest son of a civil engineer, Gray�s father tried to keep his family safe and intact during the years before the barrier cities were developed. Forced to care for his family alongside his father at an early age, Gray showed strong signs of leadership. Prior to the construction of the Chicago Barrier City, Gray was active in the youth task force, providing protection and assistance to the remaining citizens of Chicago. In the draft of 2050, Gray was enlisted in the Los Angeles USMF. Praised for his quick-thinking and skilled athleticism, Gray quickly rose to the rank of Cadet leader.
Showing great skill within the ranks of the Cadets, Gray was recruited into the Houston Military Academy (HMA) at the age of 17. Through the HMA curriculum, Gray received training in physical sciences and engineering along with humanities and the social sciences. After several successful training missions, Gray was given leadership over other missions and consecutive wasteland reconnaissance. During one of his training missions he met Aki Ross. Often assigned to similar missions, he as squadron leader and she as medical assistant, they began a relationship in complete secrecy. Two years into their relationship, Gray was assigned to the elite Deep Eyes Squadron and Aki returned to New York Barrier City to complete her education.
As Aki pursued her research, Gray, along with Jane, Neil and Ryan, conducted search and rescue missions throughout the Barrier Cities and wastelands.Despite the distance, Aki and Gray continued their relationship. However, unbeknownst to Gray, Aki became infected with Phantom particles during a freak accident. In her attempt to save her life she isolates herself from everyone, including Gray. Unable to reach Aki and not knowing the reason why she left him, Gray is filled with pain and sorrow over the woman that he loves.
Name: General Hein
Born in San Francisco in 2030. Born the year before the Leonid Meteor landed in the Arizona Desert, Hein has known about death and dying from a young age. At the age of 17, he enrolled in the Houston Military Academy (HMA) within the newly constructed experimental Barrier City in Houston showing great intelligence and skill at an early age. At HMA, Hein refined his leadership skills, gaining training in advanced artillery and strategic tactics as well as military science. It is here where he met his wife, a social worker who also shared his dedication to find a solution to the Phantom problem. Upon graduation from HMA, General Hein settled in San Francisco Barrier City with his wife and soon they had a young daughter. He lost both his daughter and wife when the San Francisco barrier failed.
The failure of the barrier only surged Hein�s quest to find a solution to the Phantoms. After the 4th World-Wide Phantom Cleansing mission of 2063, he was promoted to the position of General. A guiding force behind the development and construction of the Zeus Cannon, General Hein is determined to use this to eliminate the Phantom�s nest completely. Intent to avenge his family�s death and to release himself and the rest of the world from barrier city �cages� that they live in, General Hein is determined to use the cannon. Yet until now the Emergency council has been reluctant to accept his plan. Determined to prove Dr. Sid�s wave-theory wrong, General Hein seeks out a weakness - a weakness that he finds in Aki Ross.
Name : Dr. Sid
Dr. Sid was born in Toronto in 1995, long before the Phantoms arrived from their planet and the barrier cities were constructed. A biochemistry graduate of the University of Scientific Research, Dr. Sid spent long hours conducting research on the physical properties of living things. In 2022, after detecting a strange energy force during a gravitational field extraction experiment, he began to conduct research in spiritual energy. In addition to this research, Dr. Sid, along with his wife, also spent time contemplating the so-called Gaia theory. Through the Gaia theory, they concluded that each life is born of Gaia and each life returns to Gaia upon death. Each life holds a spirit and each spirit brings its experience back to Gaia, enabling it to live and grow.
This theory proved to be unpopular among his fellow scientists and Dr. Sid and his wife kept their findings hidden.After the Leonid Meteor landed on earth, Phantoms created world-wide destruction. Dr. Sid was able to avoid Phantom exposure, yet he lost his wife during the attack on Toronto. After the death of his wife, Dr. Sid became an advocate for Bio-Etheric research and dedicated his life to finding the solution to the Phantom problem. Through extensive research he discovered a unique energy form in the Phantoms. This discovery in turn was used to create such items as spiritual scanners and ovo-pacs, as well as weapons such as Energy weapons, transport vehicles and numerous tools.
In addition, he was successful in creating a barrier shield that provided protection against Phantom attacks. Using this technology, the remaining cities were surrounded by this shield to form the Barrier Cities. Upon completion of the barrier cities, Dr. Sid devoted himself to the research of bio-etheric wave theory. After his appointment to Director of the Bio-Etheric Center in New York Barrier City, Dr. Sid was able to successfully analyze the Phantom wave pattern and with the help of Dr. Aki Ross hopes to find the remaining three spirit waves to complete the pattern.
Name : Neil Fleming
Born in New York City in 2038, Neil was the youngest son of a military officer. From an early age Neil showed interest in mechanics, often taking apart household appliances and putting them back together. At the age of 18 he enrolled in the Houston Military Academy where he studied engineering and received training in the Air Force. Highly recommended for his mechanical ability, Neil was recruited to the Deep Eyes squadron at the age of 25.

Tides turn as Justin Turner leads Dodgers past Marlins 7-0
For one day, the Miami Marlins could say they have the same record as the defending National League champions.
The novelty was short-lived as the Los Angeles staved off a series sweep in Miami with a 7-0 win over the Marlins on Thursday.
Justin Turner returned from the 10-day disabled list in time for the series opener and capped it off with a bang. His five RBI ties a career high.
Yasiel Puig and Chris Taylor reached base on balls in the third inning and a wild pitch gave them the chance to reach scoring position. Smith also walked Austin Barnes to load the bases for Turner, who then hit a line drive double to left field to clear the bases and give the Dodgers a 3-0 lead.
Matt Kemp followed that up with an RBI ground-rule double to make it a 4-0 lead. Marlins starter Caleb Smith lasted three innings, giving up four runs while striking out four.
Puig added some padding to the already comfortable Dodgers lead with a solo home run in the fourth inning to make it a 5-0 game. Turner later added two more runs to the lead with another bases clearing double. Two innings essentially sunk the Fightin' Fish.
Puig's home run effectively ended reliever Junichi Tazawa's tenure with the Marlins, who designated him for assignment after the game. Tazawa has a 9.00 ERA in 22 appearances. Before signing with the Marlins, Tazawa spent seven seasons with the Boston Red Sox which includes winning a World Series title in 2013.
Tyler Cloyd came in after Tazawa and pitched the final five innings allowing only four hits and zero runs. It was his best outing of the season but he was optioned to Triple-A New Orleans.
Dodgers starter Kenta Maeda entered the game looking to rebound from horrid start in which he gave up five runs off nine hits against the last place Cincinnati Reds. He had a 11.31 K/9 rate going in, which is good for fifth among National League pitchers.
Maeda breezed through eight shutout innings allowing only two hits and striking out eight batters. Kenley Jansen finished the game with a clean ninth inning.

Raise your hand if you've ever spent too much time wondering if the words slurred from a drunken mouth are truths or lies.
Don't feel bad about it. I spent almost all of 2012 and too much of 2013 mindfucked with that exact dilemma.
Then I read an article that was all drunk people tell the truth but it doesn't mean shit if they can't say it sober.
It took me a long time to stop seeing myself as anything other than damaged. For an entire year I had been repeatedly peed on, lied to, ignored, insulted, and attacked in ways I need more than one word to describe. I refuse to say or believe that the entire relationship was negative so I won't.
I spent a long time wallowing in how much that damage made me hate myself. If you're at all familiar with recovery terms, I was allowing someone rent-free space in my head.
My New Years resolutions to quit smoking again and to quit caffeine are a reaction to my addictive relationship with an active alcoholic. I don't want to be controlled by any addictions. Ever again. I want to be in control of my actions and my thoughts.
My entire brain belongs to me and I am in control of who is allowed to live there, no one gets in if I'm the one that has to pay for it. P.S. That's the dream not the reality.
So I live by the truth of that article. If someone says something to me while drunk, it doesn't count if they can't, won't, or don't repeat it when they're sober. For the most part, this truth is easy to accept as a super nifty mental rule.
Drunk words never happened.
But I've only been living by drunk words never happened for a month. I have very deep, very disturbing self-destructive and paranoid theories about how everyone ever hates me because I'm horrible and unloveable. Sober or drunk, if someone says something to trigger the beast inside that hates everything I am, that drunk dick's words turn into a horror movie serial killer jumping out from every dark corner in my mind.
In other news, I haven't pooped since Friday. I don't like to go longer than 24 hours without pooping. Not pooping is the opposite of Hershey squirts, which is usually what fills the toilet bowl when I'm taking antibiotics.
Also, anyone else ever notice that the first day of antibiotic consumption, the pills never smell, all other days the smell gets more pronounced and grody? I'm on day 7 and the bottle smells so nasty. But yesterday it wasn't as bad. I'm serious. It fucking smells and it smells wrong.

1,156 pot plants were just about to flower in Puyallup. Then the cops showed up
It was the smell that gave him away.
When officers from the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board busted the illegal marijuana grow operation Friday, neighbors had been smelling it for months.
Officers seized 1,156 plants at the converted home in the 10700 block of Rampart Drive East in Puyallup.
The sole occupant, a California man, was arrested. Pierce County Sheriff's deputies assisted in the bust.
Also seized: grow lights, ballasts, fans and other growing equipment.
The house and detached garage had been modified with illegal electrical wiring. It was an indication, the cannabis board said, that the residence was being used solely for the illegal production of marijuana.
The location was not licensed by the cannabis board as a marijuana producer or registered as a medical cooperative.
Cannabis board officers will recommend charges against the man and the home owner for the illegal manufacture and possession of a controlled substance.
"A Department of Ecology Hazmat team responded to the scene and took possession of fertilizers and pesticides, including Avid — a pesticide not legal for use on marijuana," the cannabis board said in a statement.

Calcium is the most plentiful mineral in the body. Practically 99 percent of the body's calcium is stored in the structure of the bones and teeth. The truth is, though, a number of us aren't eating enough calcium abundant foods.
Bone calcium is likewise used as a storage area to release calcium into the blood stream when it is needed. Calcium is required for so much more than bone health, though. Eating calcium rich foods makes it possible for our body's to achieve optimal nerve transmission, blood clotting, hormone secretion and muscle contraction.
Blood calcium is firmly controlled considering that it plays so many crucial functions, consisting of stabilizing your body's acid/alkaline body and pH. The body will borrow calcium from the bones as required, so frequently that the bones are in fact remodeled about every 10 years.
Calcium shortage symptoms can include:
- Osteopenia or Osteoporosis.
- Dental caries.
- Muscle tension.
- Hypertension.
In order for your body to take in calcium your body also requires magnesium, vitamin D and vitamin K. So food sources and complicated food based supplements are chosen to isolated calcium supplements to satisfy your calcium needs.
The "Got Milk?" project was more than just good marketing: One cup of milk has about 30 percent of the calcium you require daily, inning accordance with the National Institutes of Health's Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS). On top of that, the milk that's offered in stores is usually strengthened with vitamin D, making it a double-whammy when it concerns bone health.
Bone-building foods
Calcium develops healthy bones and teeth and guarantees your muscles, cells, and nerves work appropriately. Adults require about 1,000 milligrams a day– that's a little bit more than 3 8-ounce glasses of milk– however what if you're vegan, lactose intolerant, or just do not like the taste of dairy products? Here's a little-known fact: there are lots of non-dairy foods with calcium.
Collard greens
Calcium content: 268 milligrams per 1 cup prepared. Plus: In addition to dishing out more than a quarter of your daily calcium requirements, this Southern favorite is also loaded with almost 3 days worth of vitamin A, a nutrient that helps keep your eyes sharp as you age. Though collard greens are typically cooked with butter and fattening meats, they also taste excellent sauteed with olive oil and garlic.
Calcium content: 86 milligrams in 2 cups raw. Plus: Believe it or not, in addition to calcium this cruciferous vegetable includes almost twice the vitamin C of an orange. Research likewise shows that diets high in cruciferous veggies like broccoli might be connected to a lower risk of specific types of cancer, including colon and bladder cancer.
Broccoli rabe
Calcium content: 100 milligrams in one 2/3-cup serving. Plus: Broccoli rabe (noticable "rob") is the somewhat more bitter cousin to broccoli. It supplies more than half your everyday worth of immune-boosting vitamin C and about 3 grams of belly-filling protein. It's likewise a great source of vitamin A.
Calcium content: 101 milligrams in 1 cup raw, chopped. Plus: This superfood has everything: it racks up simply 30 calories per serving, offers a day's worth of vitamin C, and twice the advised daily consumption of vitamin A, not to mention that 101 milligrams of calcium per serving. It likewise supplies a substantial dose of vitamin K, a nutrient that helps your blood clot. Without it, you wouldn't stop bleeding when you cut or bruise yourself.
Calcium content: 98 milligrams in 1 cup cooked. Plus: Edamame has been consumed in China and Japan for countless years, and it's no surprise: it's a nutritional powerhouse. Edamame– which are immature soybeans in the pod– is among the few non-animal foods that is a complete protein, implying it includes all nine necessary amino acids. You likewise get 8 grams of fiber per serving.
Bok Choy
Calcium content: 74 milligrams per 1 cup shredded. Plus: A cup of bok choy– also called Chinese cabbage– sets you back simply 9 calories. It's also an excellent source of vitamin A, vitamin C, and potassium. Bok choy cooks quickly, making it perfect for stir-fries, and is readily available year-round.
Calcium content: 121 milligrams per 1/2 cup dried. Plus: Bite into a dried fig, and you'll think you're enjoying a super-sweet and sticky dessert, when in reality you're devouring on a fiber- and potassium-packed fruit. Figs also provide you with magnesium, a nutrient the body uses in more than 300 biomechanical reactions, such as maintaining muscle function, keeping your heart rhythm constant, and strengthening your bones.
Calcium content: 74 milligrams in one large orange and 27 milligrams in a cup of orange juice. Plus: You understand oranges for their immune-boosting vitamin C content, however they're likewise low in calories and brimming with anti-oxidants.
Calcium content: 351 milligrams in one 3.75-ounce can. Plus: Don't be frightened of sardines– these salted little fish include lots of umami taste to salads and pastas. And they serve up a lot more than simply calcium: they're an incredible source of vitamin B-12, which is an essential nutrient for brain and nervous system health. Sardines also include vitamin D, which is necessary for bone health and notoriously difficult to get through food.
Canned Salmon
Calcium content: 232 milligrams in half a can. Plus: If you can't discover eco-friendly farmed salmon or merely cannot afford wild-caught salmon (which can cost twice as much), attempt canned salmon. Half a can offers 44% your day-to-day calcium needs, as well as a tremendous 38 grams of belly-flattening protein.
White Beans
Calcium content: 63 milligrams in 1/2 cup cooked. Plus: These meaty little people are rich in fiber, protein, and iron, and they're likewise among the best nutritional sources of potassium. Additionally, they consist of resistant starch, a healthy carb that enhance metabolism.
Calcium content: 82 milligrams in 1 cup.Plus: Okra consists of constipation-fighting insoluble fiber, along with vitamin B6 and folate. And do not write off this vegetable if you've only ever had a boiled, slimy version; oven-roasting, sautéing, or barbecuing bring out the best flavor.
Calcium content: 434 milligrams per half cup. Plus: You know tofu as a vegetarian source of protein. Ends up it's also a fantastic source of calcium. Tofu is extremely flexible– it takes on the taste of whatever else you're cooking with it.
Calcium content: 75 milligrams per ounce (about 23 entire almonds). Plus: Almonds, which are amongst the best nuts for your health, consist of about 12% of your required day-to-day protein, and are rich in vitamin E and potassium. And although they are fattening, it's the excellent type of fat that helps decrease your bad cholesterol levels as long as you enjoy them in small amounts.
Top Health Benefits of Calcium
Bone Health
Calcium is important in the teens into the early 20s when bones are solidifying and the body is accomplishing its peak bone mass. The higher the peak bone mass, the longer one can delay osteoporosis or loss of bone mass at a later age. More than 10 million United States adults are impacted by osteoporosis and it is one of the leading causes of broken bones in the elderly.
Cancer Prevention
Studies have shown that consuming calcium abundant foods are associated with a reduced risk of colon and rectal cancers. The evidence is insufficient to suggest calcium supplements for the prevention of colon cancer, but eating calcium abundant foods might have the same effect. (There's really a link in between calcium supplements and cardiovascular disease, so it's best to get the mineral from calcium rich food sources.).
Weight Management
There is a connection between calcium consumption and lower body weight. It is thought that calcium in the diet can bind to fat in the digestive system, avoiding absorption, for that reason reducing the calories that really make it into the body.
Blood Pressure and Heart Health
Calcium abundant foods help relax smooth muscle, discovered in the veins and arteries, and can help in reducing blood pressure. The DASH Diet (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) advises a diet high in calcium to assist enhance blood pressure. (Note, full-fat dairy has been shown to be much healthier compared to low-fat dairy.)

The Washington Nationals announced on Tuesday that they had signed Dusty Baker to be their next manager. But that only happened after they failed to sign their first choice, Bud Black.
Black and Baker were the two finalists for the opening after the Nationals fired Matt Williams after the season. The Nationals reportedly chose Black, with James Wagner of The Washington Post citing multiple sources.
It was believed at the time that no announcement was being made because it came in the midst of the World Series and Major League Baseball frowns on other teams making major announcements during the series. The same situation arose with the Miami Marlins, who were reported during the series to be hiring Don Mattingly, a move that wasn't officially announced until the day after the series ended.
In other words, there was no reason to think anything was amiss. Only there was a problem: The two sides had not yet agreed on a contract and negotiations sound like they were a complete mess.
According to Adam Kilgore of The Washington Post, the Nationals' first offer to Black that was only guaranteed for one season at $1.6 million, with a source describing Black as "deeply offended."
For comparison, most managers sign contracts with new teams with a length of three to five years. Joe Maddon signed a five-year, $25 million contract with the Chicago Cubs. Kevin Cash, who had no previous managerial experience, received a five-year contract from the Tampa Bay Rays. Black managed the San Diego Padres for eight years.
Kilgore explains the importance of contract length:
The contract length matters for financial reasons, of course. It also allows a manager to do his job. With two years guaranteed — or one — handling a clubhouse of unfamiliar personalities would have been untenable. The first step is to gain credibility and respect, and that kind of contract prevents it. It forces a manager to look over his shoulder and defend himself rather than protect and motivate players. It breeds dysfunction.
The Nationals did increase their offer to two years with multiple team options, but according to the report, negotiations were off by Saturday, forcing the Nationals to move on with Plan B.
We have reached out to the Nationals for comment.

Slideways Karting Academy
Book Your Spot Today on (07) 5546 6566!
Having emerged from the original concept by Slideways owner Cam Wilson for the Junior Karting Academy, Slideways are now offering the ultimate Karting Academy training courses.
No longer are these courses offered just for the juniors, our new advanced programmed courses are available for all age brackets.
Prior bookings are essential, as grouping the appropriate age and skill levels together is imperative for maximising the productivity of courses for each participant.

Speed and Race Craft Courses
This entire 10 level full course program is aimed at covering every single aspect of how to become an advanced racer, by understanding the philosophies of carrying maximum speed while on-track situations arise.
Full grading on each element of the entire course is given. This not only allows you to analyse results, but repeat a specific level if required to improve the overall result score.
With a 20-point scoring system used at each level, an overall score from 100 is calculated at the completion of each 5-level staged course, this will then be graded to a percentage scale.
Stage 1 = Speed Course
- Level 1 (Sector 1 – Turns 14 & 1)
- Level 2 (Sector 2 – Turns 2, 3 & 4)
- Level 3 (Sector 3 – Turns 5, 6 & 7)
- Level 4 (Sector 4 – Turns 8, 9 & 10)

- Level 9 (Sector 4 – Turns 8, 9 & 10)
- Level 10 (Sector 5 – Turns 11, 12 & 13)
Each course begins with a walk of the actual sector that is being graded, here an explanation of the theory aspect involved is given prior to each driver getting on track. Once on track, all concentration is purely centered upon the sector that is being graded, and all drivers will be stopped each lap to be given further feedback and tips.
A certificate of completion will be awarded at each level passed as follows:
10 = Gold Certificate
9 = Silver Certificate
8 = Bronze Certificate
7 = Encouragement Award
6 = Pass and Graduate Level
5 = Repeat level recommended
4 = Repeat level recommended
3 = Repeat level recommended
2 = Repeat level recommended
1 = Repeat level recommended
At the completion of both Stages 1 and 2 a combined percentage score will then be calculated. A further certificate of completion will also be awarded at the end of each stage and stages combined.
It is possible for drivers to re-sit certain levels at any time to improve their overall combined scores for recalculation.

Stanley Black & Decker Prints Professional Hardware Labels In-House with Kiaro! K-100 Printers
Stanley Black & Decker's East Longmeadow, Massachusetts facility specializes in manufacturing the strongest, fastest and most durable band saw, jigsaw and hacksaw blades on the market.
QuickLabel traveled to their facility to see how they use their Kiaro! K-100 label printers to ensure their labels reflect the quality of their product as well as advance their production line.
Watch our video to see how one of the country's leading tool brands benefits from printing labels in-house and on-demand.
Kiaro! K-100: The Ideal Hardware Labeling Solution
"From what we were getting when we printed our previous labels to what we're printing now – I was just blown away."
– Sean Wylie, Team Leader, Paint/Print/Pack Department
Stanley Black & Decker produces a wide variety of industrial tools, fasteners and security products for well-known brands such as DeWalt, Craftsman, Lenox, and more.
Within their East Longmeadow, MA facility, Stanley Black & Decker creates professional hardware labels using their three Kiaro! K-100 label printers, which include specific text, barcodes, color codes and photo images. These labels are applied directly onto saw blades and other product carton labels sold to businesses such as Home Depot, Lowe's and ACE Hardware.
For these labels to be accepted and placed in-stores, they are required to meet stringent retail regulations. An easy, in-house labeling solution, QuickLabel allows Stanley Black & Decker to produce not only compliant, but professional hardware labels that stand out on the shelves.
Sean Wylie, Team Leader, Paint/Print/Pack Department, states, "I believe product packaging is very important here. We have blades that are for metal cutting, wood cutting, blades that cut different thicknesses of metal – all of that needs to be represented on our labels. Anything we put our product in, we want it to stand out."
SAP Software Integration
Stanley Black & Decker uses a global SAP software system to manage data across multiple product lines and business departments.
The Kiaro! K-100 label printers were able to seamlessly integrate with their SAP system through a custom developed manufacturing floor application, allowing product images, branding and other product data to be accurately printed on all their product labels.
This allowed them to easily update labels as needed, in the quantity they needed, without hassle.
Working with the Kiaro! K-100's as an IT developer for their SAP system, Anatoli Vishnyakov, states, "Now, we don't have to keep a pre-printed stock of labels, so we print on-demand as many labels as we need at that specific time."
Wylie adds, "My favorite trait of the Kiaro! is the ease-of-use. It's pretty simple – when I need it, I can print it."

By integrating QuickLabel Kiaro! K-100 label printers into their business, Stanley Black & Decker saw an increase in time, flexibility, and speed of production, as well as higher durability and quality of their labels.

Top 4 Reasons Why You Should Be Printing Prepared Food Labels In-House
Many companies outsource their product labels to save on costs and maintain production efficiency. But when you break it down, is outsourcing really the most efficient route? Depending on your business size and needs, it could be more beneficial printing prepared food labels in-house.
Here are our top four reasons why taking label production in-house can be the better option:
1. Outsourced Printing Comes at a Price
While using another facility to produce your prepared food labels might seem like a giant weight off your shoulders, it may not necessarily be the case.
Outsourcing can end up severely delaying your labeling process, costing your business valuable time and money.
For example, if an outsourced label shipment becomes delayed, so will the orders your company was scheduled to have in stock and on the shelves. These delays will happen, as do errors.
Misprints can cause setbacks and affect the use by/sell by dates on your products. This is especially true for made to order businesses and prepared foods.
The best way to avoid these dilemmas is investing in a small, short-run digital label printer to easily bring production in-house.
On implementing short-run digital label printers in-house, Impression Technology Europe reveals, "Not only is the initial investment much more affordable but the cost per print is extremely low. After doing the math, most clients will find it will be much more cost effective than outsourcing and based on the output."
Our main alternative to outsourcing, investing in an in-house digital label printer will not only save you time, but also reduce cost-per-label.
Printing prepared food labels in-house has its benefits when varying environmental requirements come into play.
Just because some prepared foods need to be frozen, doesn't mean the quality and appearance of your packaging should suffer. It's important for your store's frozen foods to remain cohesive with the rest of your prepared food line. After all, it is your brand.
However, using the wrong label for the products environment can lead to wrinkles due to condensation, fading due to exposure or loss of adhesion and labels falling off.
If your business is using regular pre-printed labels, chances are, the labels won't hold up in your storage environment.
Ultimately, finding the correct label material is just as important to your printed results as your design. QuickLabel has developed special materials that are capable of absorbing the inks so that printed labels do not smear and reproduce the most accurate colors possible.
The ability to maintain complete control over your label materials and printing process will allow your business to have a streamlined, efficient process with branded labels that look the part.
One example of easy in-house printing solution is QuickLabel's flagship Kiaro!, Kiaro! D or wide format QL-800 inkjet label printers. These printers are known for printing frozen food labels that are extremely durable and still generate high-quality 1200 – 1600 dpi imagery.
With the right in-house printer, you'll have professional frozen food or beverage labels printed instantly and can be applied to products that are already frozen, or before they go into the freezer.
3. It's Not Easy to Keep Up with FDA Regulations & Demands
Keeping up with the FDA's changing regulations and formats can greatly affect your product labels. If standards are not met, your entire product line could suffer from massive recalls.
This intimidating process includes font restrictions, mandatory statements, allergen alerts and stringent calculations for daily values.
As a food manufacturer or grocer, you want to spend your energy on your recipes, production, branding and sales – not on interpreting FDA labeling mandates.
While it is absolutely necessary to adhere to FDA regulations to avoid recalls and present your customer with the quality and transparency they deserve, you can make it easier on your business.
This is where an in-house label printer truly shines. For every change in date, rule, format, etc., you have the ability to immediately customize your labels on the spot.
Printing prepared food labels in-house gives you the ability to print the exact number of labels you need for what's in-stock, on-demand. Meaning no more wasted labels, no more overstock and no more falling short.
This gives you more flexibility in your printing process, as well as introducing the option for seasonal or promotional packaging.
4. Things Are Better When You're in Control
Your labels are the face of your brand, so you always want to maintain professionalism and put your best foot forward.
If you want to be in control of your business and remove exterior dilemmas, it may be time to consider printing prepared food labels in-house.

PACK EXPO Las Vegas: Enhancing Your Printing Solutions
PACK EXPO Las Vegas: Enhancing Your Printing Solutions
For those of you who could not attend, it's time to for a PACK EXPO 2017 recap! If you weren't able to see us at our booth, this year's PACK EXPO Las Vegas was one of the most attended, most successful shows for QuickLabel & TrojanLabel.
Selling units right off the floor at both the main PACK EXPO booth and Healthcare Packaging booth, we were ecstatic from the positive reception of our new business unit and product releases.
Expanding Our Printing Solutions
Since our business unit expanded to include TrojanLabel™, a growing force in the digital label press, overprinting and specialty printers industry (February 2017), we had yet to host a trade show together in the USA –making this year's PACK EXPO Las Vegas all the more exciting.
A fantastic complement to our tabletop label printers, TrojanLabel products include the T3-OP (Trojan3), a digital professional packaging and converting overprinting system and the T2 (Trojan2), a sophisticated digital label mini press and more exclusive printers released at the show.
The acquisition of TrojanLabel helped to amplify the strength and capabilities of both brands as known leaders in the industry of tabletop label printers for in-house custom color labels and professional label presses and specialty printers.
Being our first show together in the USA, we were ecstatic to share our experience at PACK EXPO together as well as see how well it was recognized by the current and new customers that visited our booth!
Exclusive PACK EXPO Product Releases
Perhaps the most eventful portion of PACK EXPO 2017 was the unveiling of our latest QuickLabel and TrojanLabel label printer and presses.
As a show exclusive, booth visitors were able to view live demonstrations and learn more about the benefits of our four new innovative solutions:
- QL-30 and QL-60
- Trojan™ T2-C
- Trojan™ T4
Both compact, monochrome high-speed thermal transfer printers the QL-30 and QL-60 are perfect for barcoding and other one-color labeling applications. Innovative upgrades include a full-color touchscreen interface, complete with video and Wi-Fi. Ideal applications for the QL-30 and QL-60 are hazardous substance labeling, including cardboard boxes, pallets and other exposed surfaces.
Trojan T2-C
With the full capacity of a larger press, the T2-C is a compact label press that easily fits into any size print department with a footprint of less than 4 square feet. For ideal print quality and registration, the T2-C is optimized with automatic tension control, built-in web guide and intuitive TrojanControl touch panel interface. The T2-C is designed for 24/7 production and ideal for brand owners, print shops and professional label converters.
Trojan T4
While not at the show, the Trojan T4 was simultaneously released and displayed at Labelexpo Europe.
An all-in-one digital label production and finishing press, the Trojan T4 extends the TrojanLabel product line into the high-production environment for professional label converting. For advanced label production and finished rolls of superior quality, the T4's advanced digital inkjet press prints, laminates, die cuts and slits brilliant full-bleed color labels up to 1600 x 1600 dpi resolution at speeds up to 60 feet/18 meters per minute. A compact all-in-one label production solution, the T4 is fast, reliable and easy to use, while taking up less than 7-1/2 feet of work space.
Overall, we were happy to share our total labeling solutions and printing solutions with attendees to help accelerate and enhance their business.
We want to thank everyone again for coming out! Thank you for the experience, PACK EXPO. See you next year!

Browndog Creamery Keeps it Cool with the Kiaro!
Browndog Creamery's Micro Batch Gourmet Ice Cream Meets Micro Batch Label Printing
With an ever-changing variety of ice cream flavors as evocative as Dragon Bite, Tuscan Sun, Buttered Berry Brioche, and French Press Mocha, the owners of Browndog Creamery needed a labeling solution that could adapt to label changes on-the-fly.
For example, they may need 20 labels for Triple Vanilla this morning, and 15 for Mystery Cookie this afternoon. Luckily for owners Brian Scherle and Paul Gabriel, they found the Kiaro! label printer to print labels for their pints of ice cream on demand, in the exact quantity that they need.
Watch How Browndog Uses the Kiaro! for All Their Gourmet Creations:
Browndog Creamery, a "micro-creamery" located in the heart of downtown Northville Michigan, west of Detroit, brings customers delicious and unique handcrafted ice creams.
Being a micro-creamery, as explained by co-owner Paul Gabriel, "basically means that we make our ice cream in very small batches. We're not a mass factory where we make thousands of gallons of ice cream. We make about four or five gallons at a time for each flavor."
Browndog Creamery's unique flavor combinations are all created in-house by Gabriel and Scherle. "I always tell people I refuse to make butter pecan, so instead we make a bourbon pecan," said Gabriel. "For our Cinco de Mayo we made a Holy Guacamole ice cream, and that's the type of stuff that we really like: the really unique, creative stuff that you're not going to find anywhere else. "
The Perfect Label For Every Single Batch
Browndog rotates flavors of ice creams so frequently because each batch made in their micro-creamery is only a few gallons. Even before they opened their business, they knew that using pre-printed labels wouldn't make any sense, because buying minimum orders of labels would lead to excessive costs and way too much label inventory for their small backroom.
"I knew we would be running small batches of ice cream and I didn't want to take an inventory of a hundred or a thousand labels of one flavor because I knew we might only need ten," said Gabriel. "The Kiaro! has been a wonderful fit in our business to allow us to make these very small run labels and customize them to everything that we needed to do."
"Being able to create products and without having to go to a mass printing," has been a boon to business said Scherle. "Using the Kiaro! printer to label our ice cream, and to create amazing and attractive packaging is just part and parcel of creating our products."
Scherle described his first impressions of the Kiaro!, "When it was delivered I found that it's bright purple. Upon seeing it, I was pleasantly surprised that the Kiaro! looks as fun as it is to use. It's a good addition to our shop."
Kiaro! Labels Handle Freezing Temps
One of Browndog's chief concerns was whether or not their Kiaro! labels would stand up to the freezing temperatures necessary for storing ice cream.
"The synthetic material that we use for the pint labels is pretty resistant to water and we actually label the pints after they've gone through the freezing process," said Gabriel. "We were a little skeptical about how they would adhere to a frozen pint, but the Kiaro! labels do quite well."
"It's surprising how fast the printer is," said Gabriel. "We have taught some of our employees how to use the Kiaro! and besides its flexibility and other benefits, it's also very easy to use. The first time one of our managers used it she thought, 'oh goodness I have to print out 150 labels that's going to take all day' and they started to come out and she was trying hard to keep up with the printer, and roll labels up so they weren't all over the floor, it was actually quite humorous," added Scherle. "The print speed is amazing."
More Questions About Label Printing?
Read here how the Kiaro! digital label printer lets you print gorgeous labels, while reducing excess label inventory, saving you time, and allowing you to make more money. The Kiaro! gives you control over your entire labeling process, and allows you to more affordably label your products.

Have you been fatigued of getting dropped at all times? Are you broken down due to the fact you must keep secured in your own home simply because you don't would like to get misplaced? Wouldn't you be at liberty if there seemed to be some type of mod that features a little-chart so there wouldn't be a technique to go missing? I understand it is possible to craft a roadmap; even so, it is really not as easy as receiving the mod. You might require a lot of document, you need a compass. I don't even realize how to create a compass! How would you even make use of a compass? In any case, you absolutely do not have access to proceed through this problem to get an uncomplicated map.

You ought not to create something, you need to simply down load the mod as well as a mini-chart can look at the top appropriate side of your own display screen.
Following I began actively playing minecraft servers; I placed all my components of a chest. A little while approved and so I received eager. I found a pig therefore I happened to run as quickly when I could! When I captured him, I had been lost! I didn't know in which I had been or where to go. I had to create a whole new house, make new close friends, I needed to get started on over again! I had no products. The only real item I had on me had been a sword, given that most of my things were actually within the upper body. I actually will not like getting my goods with me as it was evening time and so I didn't would like to get rid of all my products. I required to generate a chart and so I necessary a compass plus some pieces of paper. To make a compass you will need stainless steel and Redstone.
