FORT WAYNE – Komets general manager David Franke said, I knew that question was coming.
And he understood why it was asked Thursday, after the Komets finally confirmed the signing of goaltender Charlie Effinger, the latest in a string of CHL stars to join Fort Wayne for its first ECHL season.
The guys we have brought back so far on the team can play in any AA-level league, Franke said. They are winners. They're very competitive. It's our belief that they will thrive in the ECHL. These players – like Effinger, Eric Giosa, Brandon Marino – were all among the top players in the Central Hockey League. They will complement what we have and we'll continue to build off that.
The Komets are coming off a CHL championship, and they've won four Cups in five years, but the memories of 2010-11 are still fresh in the minds of fans. After winning three straight titles in the IHL, the Komets were too old, too slow and too complacent in their first CHL season, stagnating in last place until February before making it to the second round of the playoffs.
Some fans have argued the Komets are making a similar mistake. Of the nine players signed, none played in the ECHL last season or have significant recent experience in the NHL-affiliated league.
Franke believes the Komets have been anything but complacent in getting Marino, the CHL MVP, a playmaker in Giosa, a former captain in Tyler Butler and Effinger, maybe the CHL's best goalie, to complement Colin Chaulk, Brett Smith, Lincoln Kaleigh Schrock, Daniel Maggio and rookie Kyle Atkins.
I felt the problem (in 2010-11) was we were asking guys to win four championships in a row, and I felt we brought guys back more out of loyalty than them being able to still get it done, Franke said. There was apathy on select players and a How do we win four in a row?' attitude. This is different.
Though sources said the Komets have come to agreements with Chris Auger, Jean-Michel Rizk, Stephon Thorne and Brent Henley, Franke said nothing has been finalized. The Komets are speaking with defenseman Frankie DeAngelis about a return and are interested in getting Bridgeport of the American Hockey League to assign goalie Kenny Reiter to Fort Wayne.
But Effinger, 26, will be a good No. 1. He was in net for Missouri in the Turner Conference finals, when Fort Wayne recovered from 2-0 and 3-1 series deficits last season. He was 32-15-4 with a 2.70 goals-against average and a .923 save percentage.
Effinger embraces the challenge of being the latest in Fort Wayne's lineage of great goalies, like Robbie Irons, Chuck Adamson, Pokey Reddick, Kevin St. Pierre and the injured Nick Boucher.
You don't want to go to a place with a history of bad goalies, he said. I'm a very simple hard-working guy. It's about reaching and striving for greatness and I will have that mindset.

The end for WebSphere and WebLogic?
Open source Java software winning cloud war says survey
The tide in the open source server battle appears to be turning, with Apache Tomcat and Jetty being the clear choice for web-application developing Java enterprises, a new survey has revealed.
Web application performance company New Relic, who conducted the state of open source Java survey, found that from a sample of 1,000 top Java Enteprise companies, over 80% favoured the open source servers of Apache Tomcat and Jetty over the commercial options of WebSphere and WebLogic. By quite a margin.
The shift from the reliable commercial vendors of old to the open source servers that have cropped up over recent years can clearly be documented. Little over 2% were using Oracle's WebLogic and IBM's WebSphere, effectively sounding the death knell for their enterprise efforts unless something can be done quicksharp to turn that round. A key advantage that open source servers have is the ease of licensing when deploying to the cloud.
Interestingly Oracle's open source server Glassfish doesn't appear to have encouraged the adoption that their caretaker would want, with less than 3% of those surveyed using it. JBoss's AS holds steady at just under 10% of those questioned, which is a fairly good chunk when against the might of Apache and Eclipse.
Apache Tomcat is lightyears out in front as the choice for developing web applications with a 54% majority. Companies are likely to favour the server's longevity - after all it's in its 7th incarnation and has over ten years experience. After recent weeks where debates have raged over the benefits of having the Apache label in the longrun, it appears that Tomcat is going from strength to strength, after getting the certification rubber stamp for TomEE back in October.
It's interesting to note that the survey from New Relic included a broad cross-section of industries (as noted above), including companies such as IGN, AT&T and Comcast. It's clear that some servers are tailored for needs of certain industries. These findings do show that open source servers may be streets ahead, but an informed decision based upon the enterprise needs is the best method to take.
Strangely, a survey conducted by EnterpriseDB back in 2010 found that almost half of those asked believed open source would 'barely hang on' under Oracle's guidance. How foolish that view looks now. Open source is still rising.

Our goal for the next twelve months is to create a play space for Will. He's gotta help build it of course. He's two, now; learn to swing a hammer already, kid. One of the main reasons we bought a house with land is that we want our kids playing in the backyard, getting dirty, and realizing that there is more to life than the Disney Channel.
Living out here in the country makes it a little hard to visit community playgrounds. So why not bring the play to our own grounds, right? Community playgrounds have been a great source of inspiration for us. By visiting several in our county, we learned what we like, what we think is a little too dangerous, and what toys strike our fancy. This all leads me to The List.
I make lists about everything, and play areas are no exception. Here are some things we wrote down on our dream play area wish list.
1. Jungle Gym
There is nothing more fun to a young kid than having his own space to monkey around. Learning to hang, swing, climb, slide, and balance are not only great for physical development, but also great for teaching that fun activity includes more than a TV remote. We definitely want a jungle gym that has all the fixin's, such as electricity so we can plug in our fans during a Georgia heatwave and for when our future tweens need escape to their own space. We also want it to have a slide, a rope for climbing, a rock wall, and easy access wide stairs (for mom's old knees). And a zip line for when Will gets older . . . say, three.
2. Sandbox
Will is already completely infatuated with sand and sandboxes. With a little proper planning, we hope we'll be able to squeeze in a sandbox near the jungle gym and have storage (maybe under the jungle gym) for buckets, shovels, and all the necessary sand accouterments.
3. Rest Area
Let's face it, I am at the beginning of my baby-bearing timeline. If we want four to six little ones, Mommy is gonna need a rest area. Also known as the police station. And first aid station. And kisses-for-boo boos station. Hopefully, we can also squeeze in a rest area complete with a picnic table for snacks and breaks, a couple large shade trees to keep us all cool, and a hammock in the shade for me to lay, nurse, and relax.
4. Multipurpose Court
We were surprised to find that this house came with its own tennis court. Technically speaking, it's not a regulation-size court, but for non-pros like us, it's perfect for getting out there to hit a few balls. Ideally, we would love to convert the court into a multi-use court. This will be perfect when the kids get older. Jeremy has plans for movable basketball goals and lines drawn for tennis, foursquare, badminton, volleyball, pickle-ball, and, of course, half-court basketball.
5. The Creek & Woods
The main reason we loved this piece of property was that it has a creek running through the back woods. It has flat rock that is just perfect for wading and chasing frogs and floating boats down over mini waterfalls. It's my favorite place on earth, and I still can't believe it's ours. We already have enjoyed frequent trips with our water shoes strapped on, but in the future, I'd love to have clear paths cut for four-wheeling, a bench built near the water for relaxing, and perhaps a stationary post with hooks to hang our bags and towels and a recycling/trash box for any trash that floats downstream.
6. Secret Garden
When we redid the landscaping near our mailbox, we discovered a bunch of extra rocks that we moved to a secluded little area near our veggie garden. I'd love to convert this area into a "secret garden" for Will and his future siblings. Kids love planting, watering, and watching things grow, so why not give them their own space to do it, right?! I hope to get loads of pots, some outdoor mats for seating, and perhaps a tee-pee for the kids to sit under while their garden grows.

Theodore Roosevelt's History of the United States: His Own Words, Selected and Arranged by Daniel Ruddy : Theodore Roosevelt's ideas about the nation's early days and his own times can be found sprinkled throughout his voluminous writings, but these "pearls of thought" (as one of his book reviewers described them in 1888) have never before been pulled together into one volume. Now, through the skillful editing of Daniel Ruddy, Theodore Roosevelt's History of the United States provides readers with Roosevelt's unique view of American history from the Revolution to the beginning of the twentieth century.

About the Pictures Image Gallery
Amylase is an enzyme that breaks starch down into sugar. Amylase is present in human saliva, where it begins the chemical process of digestion. Foods that contain much starch but little sugar, such as rice and potato, taste slightly sweet as they are chewed because amylase turns some of their starch into sugar in the mouth.

Introduction to Sumerian
AWAS 1400 S01 [CRN: 25573]Over five thousand years ago the first cities emerged in southern Iraq, and around that same time writing was invented, most likely to record the language we now call Sumerian. Even after it was no longer spoken, Sumerian became a powerful conduit for the region's cultural heritage, preserving its literature and religious traditions for millennia. In this course students will learn the fundamentals of Sumerian grammar, develop a basic working vocabulary, and explore the cuneiform script through weekly readings in original texts. Selections will come from royal inscriptions, court cases, myths, magical incantations, and even ancient schoolwork. No prerequisites. Enrollment limited to 20.

Solutions for Teachers Bullied by Colleagues
My last blog post shared stories from teachers who have been traumatized by administrators and fellow instructors. Today's post introduces strategies to counteract bullies' go-to move: rhetorical evisceration disguised as "helpful" critique. Don't think that the hostility will simply dissipate over time. Bullies are serial antagonists and need to be stopped before their harassment calcifies into a pattern.
Be warned that having a heart-to-heart with the victimizer might not work, but there are other alternatives. Before describing what strategies to try, the section below will discuss practices that backfire.
What You Should Avoid
Bullies are in the business of intimidation. If you are a target, you'll undoubtedly feel unsettled, confused, angry and anxious. In this state, you might impulsively try to placate aggressors by being more complimentary, but this only rewards their harassment. Bullies regard praise as obsequiousness. It grows their power and undermines yours.
Secondly, constructing inferences about the tangled motivations of the bully wastes your intuition. Trying to figure him out won't relieve your confusion. Instead, focus on what you can control; concentrate on keeping your headspace clear and rationale. Play your own game.
Counteracting Verbal Aggression
Short of imitating the menacing Estuary English accent of Jason Statham ("figah" for figure, "baht" for but), you can give yourself more agency by imagining dialogue with bullies as a serious game of racquetball. If the bully shoots a rhetorical volley at you, return it definitively with a kill shot so that the bully can't continue to dominate the interaction. More precisely, don't extend an argument.
Avoid the following:
Bully: "Your students don't learn a thing."
You: "Yes they do."
Bully: "That's not what they tell me."
You: "Who says that? "
Bully: "They all say that. You just aren't paying attention."
Try this rejoinder:
Bully: "Your students don't learn a thing."
You: "I don't see it that way."
Any version of "I don't see it that way" shuts down a conversation. If you are interacting with an administrator prone to vague disparagements, put them on the defensive.
Try the following:
Bully: "You aren't a team player."
You: "To help me understand and remember your critique, would you prefer to write up the criticism in an email, or should I just record you with my smartphone?"
This reminds the administrative bully that you can share inappropriate criticism with her superior, your lawyer or your union. If the bully rejects those two offers (and she probably will), listen carefully to the complaints and take notes. Ask for specifics:
- Give me an example of . . .
- What behaviors are you asking me to change?
Later, hand her a memorandum of understanding with as many direct quotes as possible. Ask her to sign the memo. A record of belittlement may help you develop a case against her later.
Acting "As If . . ."
When I was a new teacher, my principal grew incensed that, in my role as a member of a committee managing a school-wide project, I had identified critical problems with his pet initiative. For several weeks, multiple confrontations ensued in which he attempted to discredit me. I grew weary and raw from the siege. When an emergency committee meeting was announced, I knew I'd be attacked. Racked with anxiety, I called my twin brother, Scott, to help me calm down.
"Instead of bracing for a showdown," Scott said, "enjoy interacting with your adversary. Have fun being you, being there." My panic disappeared instantly.
Instead of trying to predict how I might be humiliated, Scott reminded me to focus on who I was: someone who likes people and wanted the project to succeed. At the meeting, while my principal attacked me, I sat unperturbed. Then I interrupted him.
"You sound angry," I said, giving him a puzzled look.
"I'm not!" he snapped. His neck flushed bright purple with embarrassment in front of the dozen administrators and teachers in attendance. For the rest of the meeting, he never looked in my direction or addressed me again.
Reaching Out
Sadly, bullying can reach a level of malevolence where serious action is required. In these cases, Tim Field, author of Bully in Sight, suggests that you contact a union representative, even if you do not intend to involve them right away. Consulting a lawyer for legal advice or psychologist for emotional support are other options.
School districts can actively address bullying by collecting anonymous information about its prevalence, followed by professional development and the creation of safe channels to report abuse.
Brilliant teachers are empathic shamans who inhabit the communal psyche of thirty-some learners and thread the gaps between skills and affinities. While most observers regard this poignant ability with awe, the bully's instinct is to attack and puncture the fragile skin of civility.
Our message to bullied teachers must be unequivocal. We will protect your emotional health. We need you.

Hi Melanie,
This says it all: "The kids will suffer if we aren't doing our best or allowed to do our best." Thank you for commenting.
Thanks for the article. I have wrestled with a couple bullies in my tenure. One was a co-worker who would undermine me in front of students and colleagues. The saving grace was that this was a habit for her, and, when I when I gave the administrator my resignation (I wasn't going to work in an unsafe place), the administrator created a new position for me on another team. It didn't solve all of the issues, but gave me enough breathing room to deal with occasional flare ups.
In work space bullying enters whenever their is politics between the office members , it just lowers your confidence and mind stability ,these things appear very cheap in this level of maturity , a big thanks to you for sharing all this with us because how to fight with this is the question and the answer is your blog.
My experience was similar to yours, Bonnie. Unfortunately age discrimination seems to play a role in the challenge of trying something new after 50 (and+). That along with bullying from the very department head and administrator who could have been a major source of support has made the second career path even more challenging than I anticipated. The idea that as an experienced second career educator I am somehow not capable of learning, have nothing to offer a school, and my own life experience is irrelevant saddens me, but I keep plugging away. Students need teachers who have passion, skills, insight, flexibility and persistence!
Been down this road before and think i may be going down it again. The worst bit for me at the moment is trying to tell someone what is going on and 'knowing' that it sounds like you are at fault or that it sounds pathetic, liek you are making mountains out of molehills. I wonder if this feeling is part of the scenario. right now i dont know who to talk to , or what to do. I feel like I am caught between a rock and a hard place. Do you know how silly it is to say your Principal is with holding information? Information by the way that sets you up for failure. sigh
I resigned after seven years, because the environment was toxic. The culture of the school, I discovered after several years, was that of control and belittlement. I watched so many good teachers leave. Finally, the environment began to take a toll on my health, emotionally and physically. I began questioning if I had made the right career choice. Summer has been very relaxing. I am still looking for a new school and I am nervous about starting over, but I miss working with children. It was a difficult thing to do, but I keep telling myself it was the right thing to do.
I have heard the horror stories from one of the ladies in my Sunday school class she is a permanent sub at school and it's her first yea,r the people on her team are mean and spiteful towards her! What advice can you give her, or me for future references!
Sometimes it is the older teachers who are bullied and ridiculed by the younger teachers. I went back to school at 40 and earned a Bachelor's, Master's, and National Board Certification. After 17 years though I left teaching due to the harrassment of other teachers. Administration was no help because they supported the younger teachers they had hired, not older teachers who had been around. This principal has experienced teachers leave every year due to the toxic atmosphere. She had 17 non-tenured teachers this year. Why do people act this way?
I am in the same position and remarkably the same thing happened to me. I am a career changer, female and was put with an alpha male teacher for my first student teaching assignment. This guy was the principal's pet, and of course it didn't hurt that he was young and handsome, and that she was an older bitter woman. Anyway, I was fired from student teaching for I am not sure what, but my school couldnt do anything. I was also behind my class by a year. This guy is now the principal of the school (with an online degree and NO principal experience and she moved to another school within the district), There are three schools in the district and remarkably, two principals left to make room for these two. There is alot of politics in the school system, and actually I miss corporate America and might go back due to this bully and his master bully.
About 10 years ago I was working as a school counselor and I watched an intelligent & dedicated assistant principal as he had a "melt down" one day as the result of being bullied by his superior the principal of the high school.
He snapped one day and he lost it.
I am interested in helping prevent this kind of thing and this is not something we were taught when I went to college in the 1980's.
I am looking for books, articles, resources, etc to read to further my knowledge in this area.

Tom Youngs: I'm still a work in progress
Tom Hamilton
November 11, 2012

England hooker Tom Youngs claimed he was "happy" with his international debut but admitted that the team will have to step up another gear when they tackle the Wallabies at Twickenham next weekend.
Youngs had started just nine games at hooker for the Leicester Tigers in the Aviva Premiership and the Heineken Cup before he was thrown into Test action against Fiji on Saturday from the outset in England's. There were question marks surrounding Youngs' throwing accuracy heading into the game but he hit 100% of his 14 lineout throws and rubbished the critics with an impressive performance both in the set piece and in the loose as England claimed a 54-12 triumph.
"I was happy to get 100% lineout and that is always my goal," Youngs said. "Sometimes things don't go like that and I was pleased to put in that sort of performance at this stage. I'm still a work in progress - I still need to keep on working hard at it and I will continue doing it."
Despite the ease with which Youngs seemed to adjust to Test rugby, he was adamant that it was "definitely not a doddle" and that he will have to work to get the other aspects of his game "up to the standard" of his play in the loose. He ended up playing 65 minutes of the match with David Paice eventually replacing him but for six minutes, he was playing in the same England XV as brother Ben.
The Youngs family is steeped in rugby heritage with Tom's father having earned four caps in the 1980s. It was a family affair at Twickenham on Saturday with three generations of Youngs in attendance and Tom Youngs admitted that playing alongside his brother at Twickenham for England was "another box ticked".
"He came on when I was on the pitch which was great and to stand next to him singing the national anthem was a great moment and it was something that I will always remember," Tom Youngs said. "We had a photograph after the game and it's quite a special photograph really. My grandparents were here and they watched my Dad play here and to see their two grandsons play must have been a special day for them too."
And any nerves that might have been felt in the Youngs quarter would have abated after the first lineout of the match which the Youngs brothers' Tigers team-mate Geoff Parling plucked with ease and the hooker admitted that he "was looking forward to it".
"Look, if you're panicking about things like that then you aren't going to perform on the big stage. You have to go into it relaxed. I've been talking with Simon Hardy (specialist coach with the RFU) about my first throw and about what I was going to do and all this sort of business. I was clear, I knew what call Geoff was going to make from my first throw, I was happy with it and away we went."
Youngs looks set to keep his shirt ahead of the match with the Wallabies next weekend and despite Australia's heavy loss to France on Saturday evening, they will pose a much sterner test than Fiji.
"It's massive," Tom Youngs said. "We're now playing Australia, South Africa and New Zealand and it doesn't' get much bigger than that and we know that. But we're a good side, we're going to step up and that's what we're going to take out of this game that we've got more gears in us yet. We'll look at the good bits and work on the negative bits ahead of next weekend."

What is the real spirit behind Christmas? What does the tree represent and why do we decorate it and place gifts underneath it? Why have we been taught to lie to our children and teach them to believe in a man named Santa Clause? Is it coincidence that S.A.N.T.A. also spells S.A.T.A.N? How much truth do you want?

Then she dropped to her knees and roughlyundid my belt snap and then unzipped me her biggest surprise however was when my barely semi hrd cock flopped out in front of her face. Sarah let out a terified squeal as the front door burst open You just about scared me to deith! she accused angrily as Matt came striding in. She just wished she'd adopted that attitude years before all those orgasms she'd missed ut on over the years just from being timid and polite she . Elt a certain warmth in her pussy and after a few minutes she opened her legs and whispered to James to kiss her a little higher. The walls were covered in graffiti there was rubbish strewn everywhere and people were peering through filthy net curtainj as we walked past some sick individual had obviously seen her in the paper and deided that they didn't want her living around there anymore. Anni you must climb to the temple and. Invite us up. No one knows of this place but us because only a human can dwel. there and invite Fey inside. That you come all the way here to see me masturbate?

Dec. 17, 1912 marked the first Christmas concert on Manitou, introducing the newly founded St. Olaf Choir and a brief sermon in light of the Christmas season. Now set weeks earlier, five choirs and the St. Olaf Orchestra lead Oles into the Christmas season.
Christmas Fest has evolved through the years, moving around campus from Hoyme Chapel to the former gymnasium, and has finally settled in Skoglund since 1967. A reading of the Gospels now replaces the sermon once read by the college president. Since 1924, the orchestra has become an integral addition to the choral performance.
The festival has endured times of war, Depression and disease. In 1916, St. Olaf closed early for Christmas break, when a case of scarlet fever infested the campus, canceling the festival's Sunday performance.
Since 1941, Christmas Fest culminates with "Beautiful Savior" as the recessional hymn, bringing a festive and reverent tone to campus and to Christmas.

He must be on one heck of a power trip, fueled by hot air and tea bags.
Michiganders who support Medicaid expansion — and that's a majority, by most accounts — have been waiting all day for a vote in the Senate on Medicaid expansion. As of this writing, they're still waiting.
After hours of deliberation, one vote went down swiftly. An alternative plan proposed by Sen. Bruce Caswell, which would have essentially eliminated Medicaid altogether and cost Michigan far more than Medicaid expansion, failed spectacularly, by a vote of 9-29.
Finally, after a lengthy "short" recess, the Senate got to the real thing: HB 4714, the Medicaid expansion bill passed by the House months ago.…

CNN announced that the one-hour special will feature interviews with Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, Tom Felton, Helena Bonham Carter and Robbie Coltrane.
It will also include never-before-seen footage from 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II' days before its worldwide premiere.
Additionally, James and Oliver Phelps, who play the Weasley twins, take viewers on a tour of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando and interact with fans.
The three main stars, who have spent half of their lives playing these characters, open up to King and reflect on the end of an era. Radcliffe says that he "wept like a child on that last day" of filming, and Watson says she "was still losing my baby teeth" when she started playing Hermione.
"I was so young, it's difficult to remember much of my life before this thing happened to me," she says. Grint tells King that after spending ten years of his life playing Ron Weasley, it was "quite a big kind of shock" to leave him behind.
'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II' is the most hotly anticipated movie of the year, and it marks the end of the most successful movie franchise ever.
CNN promises that King will take viewers on an exclusive tour behind the scenes and into the making of the final movie with the special effects team who brought the magical world to the big screen. Previously unaired footage will give viewers a new glimpse at the iconic characters and, for the first time, fans will see an extended clip from 'Part II.'
'A Larry King Special -- Harry Potter: The Final Chapter' airs July 10th, 8PM ET and 11PM ET on CNN.

The Blake Project, the brand consultancy behind Branding Strategy Insider, delivers interactive brand education workshops and keynote speeches designed to align marketers on essential concepts in brand management and empower them to release the full potential of the brands they manage.
Beyond Stealing Shareby Brad VanAuken The Blake Project
The conventional wisdom is that marketing expenditures help brands steal share from their competitors. This assumes a fixed pie in which one competitor's gain is another competitor's loss. This also implies that products and brands are at least somewhat interchangeable in customers' minds.
There is a much more productive way to approach business growth. Expand the pie by better understanding and meeting customer needs, not just once but continuously. Through greater customer intimacy and insight, you will find ways to better meet your customers' needs, meet more of their needs and even anticipate their future needs. In this way, you will become more valuable to them and they will become more dependent on and emotionally connected and loyal to your brand.
Another approach beyond stealing share is to bake a new pie that only your brand owns. That is, redefine what you offer in a way that make's your brand a "category of one," that is, the only brand that can fulfill the new category's need. Branding Strategy Insider has more on "category of one" brands here.
And finally, consider the wisdom offered by Adam Brandenburger and Barry Nalebuff in their book, Co-opetition: A Revolution Mindset That Combines Competition and Cooperation: The Game Theory Strategy That's Changing the Game of Business, which is to reframe other businesses and brands operating in your brand's categories not primarily as competitors from whom you need to steal share, but rather as partners with whom you can expand the pie.
Brand marketers should know and consider that stealing share is a much tougher and less rewarding business strategy than increasing your revenues through new product and service development, innovation, reframing the category and forming strategic partnerships.

"I have faith that CM Punk will end up as a major part of Wrestlemania 30. WWE is THE show, and Punk is a big enough part of THE show to be needed for Wrestlemania."
- Sean Waltman discusses the CM Punk departure
Chris Benoit shocked the wrestling world when he was able to win the Royal Rumble and earned himself a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania. He was successfully able to eliminate the Big Show to win the match.
Former best friends turned heated rivals engaged in a battle for the World Heavyweight Championship at the Royal Rumble as Shawn Michaels challenged Triple H in a Last Man Standing match, but neither side could proclaim victory as the bout ended in a draw.
Bob Holly finally got his chance at the WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble, but he was unable to defeat Brock Lesnar to become the champion. This match was the Smackdown main event for the evening.
Despite repeated attempts by his father to interfere, Chavo Guerrero was unable to beat his uncle Eddie Guerrero in a match at the Royal Rumble.
Jamie Noble, who was accompanied by Nidia, challenged for the WWE cruiser weight championship at the Royal Rumble, but he was unable to defeat the massively popular Rey Mysterio for the belt after a very brief match that lasted less than four minutes.
Ric Flair and Batista, representing Evolution, were successfully able to defend the WWE tag titles against the Dudley Boyz in a Tables match at the Royal Rumble. In a rather interesting bit, the match lasted less than five minutes.
While he did not make an appearance during Royal Rumble 2014 as speculated, Sean Waltman, who canceled an appearance at an independent wrestling show, was said to be backstage at the event, where his good friend Kevin Nash made his return.
There is speculation that Sean Waltman could be a mystery entrant at Royal Rumble 2014 tonight, as the former WWE star canceled an appearance at an independent wrestling show in Virginia last night. Waltman also revealed that he was in Pittsburgh right now.
Sean Waltman revealed on Twitter that he was robbed while in Costa Rica. Apparently, his credit card was stolen by someone that he did a good deed for.
Several fans in England have been critical about the meet and greet with Sean Waltman, Scott Hall and Kevin Nash this week, as they feel that promoters started adding on additional charges at the last minute.
Former TNA knockout SoCal Val will be joining Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and Sean Waltman at an autograph signing in England this week.
Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and Sean Waltman are headed on a tour of Europe soon to do special appearances and signings.
Sean Waltman needed to get stitches after a match against Terry Funk at a House of Hardcore show.

LOST 6.12: That's Our Bad Guy
- Friday, April 23, 2010
So… just like that, Sun is fine? Mikhail's gunshot hurt neither her nor her baby?
Rushed, right? I guess the budget for blood and an ER-type environment didn't make.
We got back to a mirror image being prevalent in this episode. It was unique in that it shifts from Jack's face to Locke's face at the operating table, and was itself a mirror image of the scene where Jack operated on Ben. Any thoughts on that?
Good to see life through the looking glass again. I think as Jack gets tired and/or challenged and/or fearful during this surgery, the Constants of Locke and the surgery he did on Ben are going to cause him to have some flashes of his own. Ultimately, though, I can't help but wonder if he's going to fix Locke to the point he'll be able to walk again. The whole "dural sac" line was a big clue to a parallel to Jack's first surgery, the one where he had to allow fear in for 5 seconds, the one after which Jacob touched him.
Did Sayid kill Desmond?
Even if I try to talk myself into answering yes, I can't. Cool cat Desmond asked Sayid all the right questions, Brotha, including the one that brought to mind the archetypes of all the great stories about pining for a lost love where, if the wish was granted for the return of the lost one, the results were either horrifying or tragically sad. Sayid is set to thinking about "honor," and how he would best honor Nadia's memory. He could never look her in the face and tell her what he did. And we get a clue about that when she reacts in horror in the Sideverse at knowing he has "hurt someone," even if his motives were to protect her husband and children.
The next question is whether or not Flocke knows or cares whether Sayid killed Desmond. This one is harder for me to figure. All he has to do is "read his mind," which makes me wonder if maybe Sayid shot Desmond with a non-lethal wound in case the Locke Monster did flash him and see if there was a shooting involved. I think, maybe, that when Sayid says, "Go and check if you like," and they stare each other down for a moment, that the MiB does his flashy thing there. Either way, I think the MiB has contingencies. If Desmond is dead, good. If not, well, he's still not anywhere Widmore's going to find him soon.
The biggest disappointment to me was the knowledge that Desmond's just sitting in a shallow well, as opposed to having fallen through to some icy cavern with strange minerals and electromagnetism and donkey wheels.
Why is Miles using the last name "Straume" in the Bizarro timeline (introduced himself to Nadia as "Detective Straume")? Why wouldn't he have kept the surname Chang?
Great question. I had been assuming all along that Detective Miles of the LAPD was, logically, Miles Chang, as he would have had little reason to change, considering he has a good enough relationship with his father to set up his partner with one of Pierre's colleagues. Chalk this up to another case of confusing identity, one of our running themes.
How did Sun get her voice back?
Well, she sure thought Flocke was the one who took it from her. I never did, so I tend to believe him when he says he didn't. For one thing, him "taking" things from knocked-out women goes against what we know about him and how he is forced to give people a choice.

Unraveling Yields Inefficient Matching: Evidence from Post-Season College Football Bowls
AbstractMany markets have ââ¬Åunraveledâ⬠and experienced inefficient, early, dispersed transactions, and subsequently developed institutions to delay transaction timing. It has previously proved difficult, however, to measure and identify the resulting efficiency gains. Prior to 1992, college football teams were matched for post-season play up to several weeks before the end of the regular season. Since 1992, the market has reorganized to postpone this matching. We show that the matching of teams affects efficiency as measured by the resulting television viewership, and that the reorganization promoted more efficient matching, chiefly as a result of the increased ability of later matching to produce ââ¬Åchampionshipâ⬠games.

Image: Hollywood Choas – Rachel Bilson
If there were actual fashion police laying down the heavy gavel of the law, Rachel Bilson would be locked up for eternity, until she seduced the judge at her court hearing. The only reasonable explanation I can see for such a fashion is either, Rachel Bilson is pregnant, Rachel Bilson is trying to start a failed fashion trend or Rachel Bilson is letting her dog look best dressed, for once.

text: By David Simpson (CNN) -- A Cirque du Soleil performer was in stable condition after falling from the "Wheel of Death" during a Las Vegas performance Friday night, the acrobatic circus company said Saturday.The Montreal-based company did not identify the performer, but spokeswoman Ann Paladie said he is expected to be released from a hospital in the next few days.The performer slipped during a performance of "Zarkana" at the Aria Resort and Casino, Paladie said. The "Wheel of Death" is a large rotating apparatus with a ring about 8 feet in diameter at each end. Performers walk in, and even outside, the rings as the entire device rotates.On Tuesday, the Nevada Occupational Safety and Health Administration proposed fines of more than $25,000 for Cirque du Soleil for safety violations in the June 29 death of a performer Sarah Guillot-Guyard, who fell nearly 100 feet after a wire broke during a performance of the "Ka" show at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. The agency proposed fines of $7,000 for the casino.Both companies defended their safety procedures and said they would appeal the fines. CNN's John Branch contributed to this report.
