MIAMI – Braves pitcher Kris Medlen is operating in lofty territory these days, and Wednesday night he and Chipper Jones were lumped in the same sentence with a couple of legendary New York Yankees.
Medlen allowed four hits and one walk with six strikeouts in eight innings of a 3-0 win against Miami at Marlins Park, his 14th consecutive win as a starter, dating to 2009, and the Braves' 21st consecutive win in games he has started.
"Medlen threw the crap out of the ball," Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen said. "Maybe one of the best pitchers we faced. He's got great stuff. Everything is strikes. He mixes his pitches very well. He attacked the strike zone, attacked the hitters."
The Braves are the first team in nearly six decades to go unbeaten in that many starts by one pitcher, since the Yankees won 22 in a row by the Whitey Ford.
"It's awesome," Medlen said. "My wife's told me and a couple of people have said some of the names I'm being mentioned with. Whitey Ford? Come on. Don't even say it…. Anytime you can get mentioned in the same sentence as guys like that, it's really cool. I just try not to get too ahead of myself, just focus on the goal at hand, which is trying to make the playoffs."
The Braves built a 3-0 lead after three innings, and in his final Miami game, Jones singled in the third to tie Lou Gehrig for 58th place on the career hits list with 2,721.
"Lou's a big one — that's the Iron Horse, man," Jones said. "Just really honored to have as many hits in my career as one of the greatest in the game. Now we've got to work on passing him."
Craig Kimbrel collected his league-leading 38th save for the Braves, who got their 12th win in 17 games and trimmed their "magic number" to clinch a postseason berth to five. Any combination of five Braves wins or Dodgers losses would assure the Braves of at least a wild-card slot.
The Braves are five games behind Washington in the National League East standings after the Nationals split a Wednesday doubleheader with the Dodgers.
Medlen (9-1) improved to 8-0 with a 0.76 ERA in 10 starts since moving from the bullpen to the Braves' rotation July 31. After winning the National League Pitcher of the Month award in August, he is 3-0 with an 0.90 ERA in four September starts, with 34 strikeouts and only four walks in 28 innings.
"He was really good," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said of Medlen, who threw 66 strikes in 99 strikes. "Commanded the strike zone on both sides of the plate. We played some good D behind him. But that's a by-product of Medlen pounding the strike zone, getting the ball, throwing the ball over and keeping the guys on their toes."
The 5-foot-11 California native is 13-0 in 24 starts since the beginning of the 2010 season and 14-0 with a 2.68 ERA in 26 starts dating to May 31, 2009, his third major league game.
The Braves have won 21 consecutive games started by the right-hander dating to 2009, Medlen's rookie season. The Yankees won 22 consecutive starts during 1950 and 1953 by Ford, who missed the two seasons between while serving in the military.
"I think it's just kind of happened that way," Medlen said of the streak. "They [Braves] go to battle for me, I go to battle for them. It's just kind of worked out. I don't know, just take it a game at a time. I haven't gotten ahead of myself."
Before Medlen, the franchise record was 15 consecutive wins in games started by John Smoltz in 1996.
Since moving from the bullpen to the rotation, Medlen allowed one or no runs in eight of nine starts before Wednesday and two runs in the other start. So after the Braves scored a run in each of the first three innings against the Marlins' Josh Johnson, they had to like their chances.
"We manufactured a run that first inning, did the same the next couple of innings," Medlen said. "It was huge. Anytime you go against a guy like that, with what his ERA was the last two or three years, he's a dude you know you've got to bring you're 'A' game with. He's a tough pitcher and we manufactured some runs."
Johnson (8-13) was charged with three runs, five hits and three walks in six innings. He has a 3.01 ERA with nine quality starts in his past 11 games, but only a 3-6 record in that span due to poor run support.
"We pitched well but Medlen threw better," Guillen said. "This kid, wow. He put on a show out there."
Leadoff man Michael Bourn, batting .165 in his past 27 games before Wednesday, started the game with a double, and the Braves played textbook baseball to get him home. Martin Prado's sacrifice bunt moved him to third, and Jason Heyward's sacrifice fly put the Braves ahead 1-0.
In the second inning, resurgent Dan Uggla drew a one-out walk — his league-leading 89th — and stole second base before scoring on Jose Constanza's two-out single.
"It was a good job by the offense getting some runs off Josh early, running his pitch count up," Jones said. "You had a feeling coming in here tonight that runs would be at a premium. Bourny did a good job in the first leading off, we manufactured a run in the first, and Constanza with a couple of hits kind of kick-started things.
"It was a big win for us, especially after last night [4-3, 10-inning loss], a game when we didn't feel like we hit particularly well, at least until the ninth. And we let that one slip away, so it was good to get the series win."
The Braves pushed the lead to 3-0 in the third after Prado led off with a walk. After Jones singled with one out, Freddie Freeman had a sacrifice fly.
"We manufactured the first two runs," said Gonzalez, whose team has struggled in that department for much of the season. "Got a leadoff double, get him over, get him in on the sac fly by J-Hey. Next inning, the same thing. We had first and third and got a sac fly by Freeman a couple of innings later.
"This is the time of the season we need to be doing that. Every run in the postseason is going to be hard. You're going to be scrapping for them. You get those opportunities, you've got to take advantage of them."

I've been trying to defend Freddi, but he makes it tough. Twice in the last week, he's cost us a run by not running for McCann in the late innings. I'm glad it didn't cost us a game this time.

Medlen reminds me of a slightly more athletic, less professor-ish version of Greg Maddux. Make sense?
September 19th, 2012
10:08 pm
No, that's not really what David O'Brien is writing. He is saying that no one has had his team win this many in a row since Whitey Ford. But, Lefty Grove won 21 in a row years before Ford did it.
Both Carl Hubbell and Whitey Ford had their teams win 22 in a row. So, Kris Medlen would need to have the Braves win his next start to tie these two hall of famer's.

Oh please, the Braves beat the Marlins. Whoop dee do. Anyone could beat the Marlins. Fredi is incompetent and we all know it. Wait until the Braves have to play the Dodgers or Cardinals in the wild card playoff. His lack of understanding of the basics of baseball will be on prominent display. If you doubt me, just remember that I've called it all season. The Braves are going nowhere as long as Fredi is the manager. I can see flaws in the team that I could fix, but the idiot manager won't respect my emails. Go down in flames, Fredi. I knew you would.

I've refrained from attacking Freddi until tonite. When he didn't pinch run for Bryan in the eighth inning I lost all respect for him. What a moron!!

Has anyone ever tried to fart into a ziplock bag and then seal it? Does it work? What size bag should I use: gallon or quart?
I've got some real clarity in my anti-Freddi stream of conscious and I want to preserve some of these thoughts for the next Braves loss
September 19th, 2012

You are so right Larry; the Braves have the 4th best record in baseball and are going nowhere fast! And to think that Fredi won't answer your e-mails…. Would you like a little cheese with that whine Larry?

Braves Magic number for the Wild Card (Cards to have home field advantage):
Cardinals: 7 (leading in tonight's game with Astros)
Dodgers: 5 (second game of Nats doubleheader in play)
Brewers: 5
Pirates: 3
Phillies: 3
Diamondbacks: 3
Padres got mathematically eliminated tonight. No other teams in the NL are in the running.
For the record, the Nationals' magic number over the Braves stands at 9.
The Braves have only 12 games remaining to play. Including tonight's second game of the doubleheader, the Nats have 15 left to play!

"Slightly more athletic Maddox" won 13 consecutive Gold Gloves, so I guess Medlen is a combination of Ozzie Smith and Albert Einstein with 21 consecutive team wins when starting.

Dodgers went to the bottom of the eighth inning leading 6-0, coughed up 6 runs, and then scored in the top of the ninth to take a 7-6 lead! Dodgers still batting in the ninth.

Good win tonight, very nice fundamental baseball tonight, and glad Bourn got the game going right and we did all the right things to score him. Constanza has a really nice hit to score Uggla, and we made Johnson work pretty hard. Missed some opportunities, but we capitalized enough to win.
Also, how about that play by Martin? UNBELIEVABLE! Jeter-esque. I said it last night and I'll say it again. If there's anyone I'm investing in on this team long term, it's Martin Prado.
Meds wasn't as sharp as he is normally, but still pitched very well, got through some adversity and how about that curveball he struck out Lee with? Masterful.
Go Braves!

Re: Larry
While I wasn't completely thrilled about his managing job last year and the collapse, I'll have to disagree this year. He's done a much better job. He gets credit for managing the bullpen better, making adjustments when needed, and coaching each player and their ego after last year's disaster.
He won't win Manager of the Year, but he'll be a top 3 finalist.

Dodgers get the win in the second game of today's twin bill with the Nats.
So, the magic numbers over the Dodgers remains at 5 and the Nats' nagic number over the Braves remains at 9.
Nats now have 14 games remaining.

I was at all 3 games and i come away impressed by PRADO!! WOW
The guy looks natural at any position you play him – sign this guy to an extension.
This ballpark hurt our offense…many balls to deep CF wdve been HR's in Turner..

Nice to see that others are beginning to see Larry for the flatulent worm he is. He played Little League baseball for 9 years, managed to have a .067 batting average and this qualifies him to know more about Major League Baseball than those paid to do the job.
September 19th, 2012
11:38 pm
DOB…. I would like to know why FG did not have a pinch runner on for Brian M. after his single in the 9th….. We score a big insurance run with Johnson doubling after that with a speedy runner…. I thought maybe he did not want to have a catcher come in and mess with Medlen's game but he took Kris out (why??) so it was a wash at that point… Still not sure why Medlen could not have started the ninth and tried for the complete game>>>>
September 19th, 2012

Medlen wins 2 more this season and he beats Whitey's record cold. pretty damn stunning. Kind of raising the bar for the staff.
Great W tonight, really sucks we blew it last night. Keep an eye on the Reds, they're making a run. Would be great if we could win out and apply some real pressure to the Nats.

Kimbrel wasn't very sharp…there's no reason Medlin shouldn't have finished the game. Fredi pinch-hits for him and gets what? Nothing. Now you bring in Kimbrel when it was totally unnecessary as Medlin was in complete control of the game. I hope Kimbrel doesn't melt down like last year.

Should Braves play to win division, or rest folks for playoff game? It's a tough one.. I think go for division..9 is not totally out of the question with Nats tough schedule. Plus whats the point of resting for only one game.
don't like the one game playoff any chance it could be changed in the future?
September 20th, 2012

Elias Sports and the AJC need to do this research. Very, very few pitchers under 6′00″ can claim what Medlin has done in the Modern Era of baseball. It wll be interesting to know where Medlin falls in this catagory What makes it more astounding is that he is not left handed. Everybody knows that there is no such thing as a 'crafty righthander'

My son and I were at a game earlier this year, and the guy sitting behind us was whining about how Dan Uggla wouldn't listen to him try to tell him what was wrong with his batting approach. Now we have Larry saying that the manager doesn't answer his emails. Who do these people think they are???
September 20th, 2012
7:27 am
Man it will be hard not to have medlen start in the play in game. However I am curious do we think we should put that pressure on the young guy? What happens if we throw him out there and the pressure gets him and gives up 7 runs, and we lose badly. I guess we cannot win either way, if we throw Hudson out there and we lose, we would get questions on why we did not give the ball to Medlen. Same as if we give the ball to Medlen and lose, we hear young guy wasnt ready to much pressure. I just would hate to see Medlen get shelled and then his sykey damaged, remember "Oops Conrad" : (
September 20th, 2012
7:46 am
Medlen's doing GREAT, and I love it. But can we please stop with the Maddux comparisons? Medlen is on a great run; Maddux had a great HOF career. I'm not saying Medlen can't or won't be great. Let's allow Medlen to Medlen, because if we begin to look at him as Maddux-like, without doubt, we WILL be disappointed.

BobDawg I fully agree with you on McCann should have been pulled for pinch runner. You question was "why" well the answer is pretty easy! Fredi is an "IDIOT" and doing things like this was the reason Florida Marlins Fired him.
I would like to know the number of games he has cost the Braves this season with dumb ass moves like that one. Pastronecky could have scored from first on that hit. Brian looked like an elephant running around the bases. Its not like we did not have a catcher that could have caught the last inning, and not given up a thing. Just watching Fredi and his lack of managing skills, makes one wonder how the Braves have gotten this far.

JT, not only that but (not sure of Medlen's pitch count) but why not have Medlen finish the game or at least start the 9th and bring Kimbrel in only if needed… I know FG explained his reasoning but still baffled me….

Any blogger who thinks they could do a better job managing ANY major league sports team better than the existing manager/coach is a fool, delusional or maybe just a moron. Same goes for all the "experts" who believe they could fix a players swing when they are in a slump because they played HS baseball and have watched the Braves for 10 years. It's not that easy folks. Reminds me of a story I heard about golf Pro Ams. A professional golfer said they hate it when the amateurs give them "tips" on how to play certain holes because it's their home course. The pro said they could tell more about the course by looking at the yardage book and looking at the hole than the amateur who had been hacking around the course for 20 years. The truth. It's like patients going to WebMD and telling their doctor the diagnosis and treatment. Leave the managing to Fredi. Trust me- he knows a whole lot more about it than you, Larry.

LTF: I think questioning or challenging strategies and decisions made by ML managers or doctors and hospitals is a very worthwhile debate. Many on this blog are very passionate about their opinion and often wrong with the facts, but I doubt Fredie or Frank get their advice from Larry.

Yes, it's me…back from last year. Can anyone tell me why Carlos Lee runs along with the runner on his way from first to second? I noticed that Lee does this on extra base hits after the runner crosses first Lee picks him up & runs with him. What's the deal?
September 20th, 2012
9:31 am
I think a lot of you just look for something to bash fredi over. When was the last time the best closer in the game gave up three runs? Not this year! Every run is an insurance run but its not like we were winning 1 0 or anything. most of you critics dont know crap about baseball and must live a miserable life to have to put people down and criticize them all the time. Must suck to be u larry!

Lay off FG, guys. Look where this team is; there is no September swoon, the spirits are high, and a wild card slot at least is coming up. And you want to fire the manager? Crazies.
September 20th, 2012
9:44 am
Who exactly was to run for McCann? I can understand maybe having one of the worthless people batting after Reed Johnson like Hinske, or Overbay. Instead Fredi went with Baker, which I think would have been the best choice off the bench to keep the inning alive.
That said the bench now has the following people available. Hinske, Ross, Boscan, Pastornicky, Overbay, Fransisco, and pitchers. The only likely candidate on that list is Pastornicky, and the only person able to play 2nd and SS if something bad were to happen would also be Pastornicky. Considering our luck at SS of late, a 3 run lead, and the best bull pen in the majors. I believe this was the right call, even though McCann would have trouble scoring from 1st on a HR the possibility of that run wasn't the ball game.

JT – I would like to know the number of games he has cost the Braves this season with dumb ass moves like that one.
I have perfomed some statistical analysis, analyzed various computer models, and consulted with many expert baseball scouts. After doing all of this, I conclude that the number of dumbass moves executed by Fredi this season has cost the Braves exactly 0.6784567 number of games. A report detailing my conclusion will soon follow.
September 20th, 2012
9:55 am
JT @7:50am……..Pinch running for McCann would have been a good idea imo, but using Pastornicky as the pinch-runner, would not have been a good strategic move.
I agree with Joe Simpson, any player of the rooster probably could have scored on that play, except McCann with his knee problems.
September 20th, 2012
10:15 am
Thank you for your logical, succinct response to the folks asking why there was no pinch runner for Mac, Semper Fi Braves Fan. I understand griping if that had cost the game, but it didn't, so what is the point of debating it?
Also, you know Kimbrel just likes to keep things interesting.
September 20th, 2012

S F Braves Fan, the last part of my last post wasn't directed to you. It was more for the person(s) saying Medlen should have been left in for the 9th and that Kimbrel wasn't so sharp.

I for one was very critcal of Fredi last yr. I have to tip my cap, did I just say that, to how he has handled the time off for position as well as pitchers. Folks Strasburg is shut down and Medi is dominating, both had the same surgery a week apart. Looks like the cards will be our foe, unless Wash can fall apart for us… Lets go get our SWAGGER ON THIS WEEKEND and bury thd Phillies….Go Braves WS bound baby

We would have been in first or closer if Medlen had been starting sooner. Why did Freddie keep starting that straight as an arrow fastball Delgado while he kept Medlen in the bullpen. Oh I think they said to save his arm because of the operation….excuse me it had to be something else because they let him go 8 or 9 innings now that Freddi sees how wrong he was. Wonder why I could see this and him being a great baseball manager could not????

Tim Hudson could have pinch run for McCann and crossed home plate before the relay man touched the ball in that ballpark. No way you put a guy with a bad knee/hammy injury in that situation regardless of the score or the ultimate outcome. McCann will be hitting off the bench for the balance of the season and playoffs so Fredie better have a plan cause Mccann can still rake!
September 20th, 2012

"Burgess" you are very observant and perceptive. The Braves are winning in spite of Fredi G, not because of him. Just wait, he still has lots of time to screw it up, and I'm betting he does.
September 20th, 2012
12:29 pm
Assuming the Braves want to set up a postseason rotation of Medlen, Hudson, Minor, and Maholm, here is what I expect looking through Game 3 of NLDS.
9/20 – Off
9/21 @ PHL – Hanson
9/22 @ PHL – Minor
9/23 @ PHL – Maholm
9/24 – Off
9/25 v MIA – Medlen (on 5 days rest)
9/26 v MIA – Hudson (long rest)
9/27 v MIA – Minor
9/28 v NYM – Maholm
9/29 v NYM – Hanson (his final start of season)
9/30 v NYM – Medlen
10/1 @ PIT – Hudson
10/2 @ PIT – Minor
10/3 @ PIT – Maholm (last day of season)
10/4 – Off
10/5 Wildcard – Medlen
10/6 NLDS G1 – Hudson
10/7 NLDS G2 – Minor
10/8 NLDS G3 – Maholm
From this point, nothing is certain. Maybe Hanson? Medlen on short rest?

I think you only start Medlen on short rest in the NLDS if the Braves are down 2-1. If they are up 2-1, you go with Hanson.

You want a win in the Wild Card game. There is only one thing to do: find a way to activate the one and only DRAGON SLAYER, Kenshin Kawakami!!

3 run lead, top of the ninth, and you've got the best closer in the game….. If the worst thing you can come up with to complain about is not pinch running for the catcher, I'd say we're in pretty good shape. That being said, I could have scored from first on that hit, and I'm 39 and a bit overweight.

Medlen has been outstanding. I am so glad the Braves finally inserted him in the rotation and man has he ever blossomed. Take him out of the equation and where would we be right now?
He has Maddux like potential. Maddux should be mentoring him (if he is not already).

Slime, I agree with Joshua based on the series lead at the time… What would be cool is if we score 5-6 runs early in the WC game and we could pull Medlen after 3 or 4 innings to set him up better for the Division series….

I know it's dumb to say this but Medlen deserves Cy Young consideration. The guy has been beyond unbelievable. Let's just hope he continues to be lights out. The Braves definitely need a break with starting pitchers. JJ went belly up. Hanson hasn't lived up to expectations. And who can forget the bust with Lowe and Kawakami? It's beginning to look like the Braves future will be Beachy, Minor and Medlen. I'm not sure about Huddy based on his second half performance. Now all we need is someone to be half the player Chipper is.

Say what? haha.

Medlen starts the wild card game its a no brainer, write him in in ink for Oct. 5 Fredi. if we lose we want to lose with our best, dont give us this Huddy is a veteran & has earned it bull !

Larry and all others baseball experts, that every day show how little you
know about the game, am sure that you not only belive in your sick mind
that you know more about the game that the professionals do, but feel sorry
for the people that have to deal with you in other aspect of your life. Braves
are playing great, with no bench, 2 starting pitchers in DL, a second basement and the regular catcher hitting arouind 230, and a 40 year old playing with one leg in his last years, Larry why you go ahead and compare all the others team with better players and very find managers and see where they are in the standing,

Hope not.

Playoffs did I say playoffs……………I can ans your question about Lee trailing the runner to 2nd base. It is his defensive asignment to follow the runner when both the ss & 2nd baseman have gone into the outfield either for a chance of a double cutoff or tweener that may draw both out of position.

* Do you wish to attain the power to talk to people sitting thousand of miles away from you, without the help of any scientific equipment?
* Do you wish you were able to read the thoughts of others?
* Do you wish you were able to know about events occurring thousands of miles away without having to switch on a T.V. or radio?
In Mahabharat era, Sanjay had accomplished Divya Drishti Sadhana through which he could visualise events occurring hundreds of miles away. Dhritrashtra, the father of Kauravs was keen to know about the goings-on in the battle and as he was blind he could only hear about the proceedings. Through the power of his Sadhana, Sanjay was able to see the battle of Mahabharat going on in Kurukshetra and narrate the events to Dhritrashtra, while he sat in the palace in Hastinapur (Delhi).
Door Shravan or Divya Shravan Sadhana is similar, in it no telephone or scientific equipment is needed and a person can convey his thoughts to his friend staying far away from him and can also obtain messages from him.
Just imagine that you are sitting in Delhi and are talking to your wife who is in Bombay. You are not talking on phone but are receiving the sounds through the powers of the Sadhana. Isn't it amazing? You wouldn't have to resort to the help of any instrument or wait for the call to be linked and neither shall anyone be able to interrupt or overhear your conversation. Then you can contact anyone - even when you are far from civilization where there are no modern facilities like phones or wireless.
Once you have accomplished the Sadhana you can hear any conversation going on anywhere in the world. However in order to converse with someone it is necessary that the other person too, is perfect in this Sadhana. If this happens, exchange of thoughts would be child's play.
This Sadhana is not too difficult, but to accomplish it full faith and determination are absolutely necessary. You have but to try it once and if you succeed then the world shall be before you to explore and nothing shall remain a secret for you. You shall then be able to hear anything going on anywhere in the world.
This Sadhana can be started from any Sunday and it lasts for eleven days. One has to remain in Sadhana for about one hour daily.
4 to 6 am is the right time for this ritual, for the atmosphere then is peaceful and there is no disturbance. It is easy to communicate telepathically during this period.
The Sadhak should get up early in the morning and take a bath with fresh water. He should wear yellow clothes and sit on a yellow mattress facing the North. He should then light a lamp with a cotton wick immersed in clarified butter (Ghee).
In the Sadhana three articles are required - picture of the Guru, Door Shravan Yantra and Door Shravan Mala.
The Yantra and the rosary should be consecrated & enlivened through special Mantras composed by Shankaracharya. These Mantras are used to form a link of the rosary and the Yantra with the ether present everywhere.
The Sadhak must take a plate and draw a Swastik on it with red saffron. Then the Yantra should be placed over the Swastik.
After this the Sadhak should place the picture of the Guru next to the Yantra. The picture should be wiped clean and a mark of vermilion should be made on the Guru's forehead. Flowers and prayers should be offered to the Guru.
Then the Sadhak should chant the Mantra
three times. Next he should chant one round of the following Door Shravan Mantra -
This Mantra is short but very effective and by its chanting the inner conscience of the Sadhak is awakened and thus the soul becomes free to move anywhere.
After the chanting of the Mantra is complete the Sadhak should sit peacefully for ten minutes and try to establish a contact with Gurudev. In the beginning just speak out your feelings or any message which you want to send to him.
During the time period from 4am. to 6a.m. Gurudev in an invisible form reaches all his disciples and the Sadhak's wish spoken at this time is surely conveyed to him.
Repeat this whole practice regularly for eleven days. Your inner conscience shall slowly become awakened. And the day you ask something of Gurudev and are able to receive an answer know that you have become perfect in telepathy. Then you can easily contact any person living anywhere in the world and read his or her thoughts. You can even know about remote events sitting at home.
Every issue of "Nikhil Mantra Vigyan" magazine contains detailed description of various Sadhanas and prices of specified Sadhana articles. International Prices of some Sadhana articles, books, CDs etc. are listed on our website. You may also contact Jodhpur Gurudham on email/telephone/letter/fax to get the prices.
All kinds of material problems can be solved by performing Sadhanas and taking Dikshas. You may perform Sadhanas yourself to ward off malefic effects of bad planets and to counter the black magic done against you. You should perform Sadhanas yourself after taking Diksha to attain material and spiritual upliftment. Sadhana is the only way to get Divine help to resolve tensions & problems of material life and attaining spiritual elevation.
The chances of success in Sadhanas are increased manifold by taking Diksha as during Diksha, Revered Gurudev transfers a part of His own spiritual penance power into the disciple to steer him towards success. Guru Diksha is the basic foundation for spiritual and material success.
You need to take Guru Diksha before performing any Sadhana or taking any other Diksha. Guru Diksha is the first step of spiritual initiation. When you apply for Guru Diksha, you get a Guru Pitambar(shawl to wear while performing Sadhana) and one year subscription of "Nikhil Mantra Vigyan" magazine free along with Guru Diksha.
You should also take specific Diksha for this Sadhana to achieve complete success in this Sadhana.
You may either get Diksha from Gurudev personally or the Diksha may be granted on a photograph. The photograph should be a recent one, and can be of any size. However the face should be clearly visible on the photograph.
The Diksha is granted free of cost by Revered Gurudev.However, a token amount is charged for each Diksha which goes towards charitable causes through Dr. Narayan Dutt Shrimali Foundation International Charitable Trust Society.
Each issue of Nikhil Mantra Vigyan magazine contains detailed information on various rare and quickacting Sadhanas. You may click here for subscription information.
You may refer to our Frequently Asked Queries section to clarify general doubts about Sadhanas and Dikshas. You may also send us an email/letter/fax to Jodhpur Gurudham for further guidance. Our email address is email@example.com
Ideally you should meet revered Gurudevs personally to discuss about your problems & plans and obtain guidance. Only revered Gurudevs can advice you about the most relevant Diksha and Sadhana for you depending upon your aptitude and ability. You may meet revered Gurudevs during the Sadhana camps. Owing to busy schedule of Revered Gurudev, it is not possible to meet Gurudev everyday in Jodhpur Gurudham. Every month, some days are reserved and scheduled for meeting in Jodhpur Gurudham. These details are listed in the monthly magazine Nikhil Mantra Vigyan and are also available here. You may meet revered Gurudev on other days also. Please check by telephone about availability before going to the Gurudham. You should attend the Sadhana Camps to perform Sadhanas directly under revered Gurudevs' guidance.
You should contact the Jodhpur Gurudham for getting Sadhna articles/books/CDs etc. by post. Alternatively, you may buy them over the counter from our Delhi/Jodhpur Gurudham or from the counters at the Sadhna Camps.
All the Sadhna articles (Rosaries, Yantras etc.) are consecrated and energised by our pundits during auspicious moments for particular Sadhna. We do "Prana Prathistha" of all the Sadhna articles and make them more energised by performing specific "Cheitanya Puja" on all the articles. So, the chances of success in the Sadhna are increased manifold.
If you live in India, then you may send us a email/letter/fax mentioning your address and details of required items. We will send it by VPP. Alternatively, as VPP rates have increased recently, you may send us a Bank Draft of "Total cost of items" plus Rs. 60 (postage charges), then we will send the items by registered post. Please note that the Postage Charges for Paarad (mercury) items will be more (around 20-30% of cost) due to exceptionally high weight.
Sadhaks living in other SAARC countries (Nepal/ Pakistan/ Sri Lanka/ Bangladesh/ Bhutan/ Maldives/ Burma) can get Sadhana articles/books/CDs etc. at the Indian price by sending a bank draft. Please add around 20-30% as Postal charges. Please note that the Postage Charges for Paarad (mercury) items will be more (around 30-40% of cost) due to exceptionally high weight.
If you live outside India/other SAARC countries, then you may purchase the Sadhna articles/books/CDs etc. at the International Price by sending a bank draft. The overseas postage & handling charges are included in the International prices.
Please do not enclose cash in letter for payment. It is both risky and illegal
The Bank Draft should be in favour of "Nikhil Mantra Vigyan" payable at Jodhpur,India and should be sent to Jodhpur Gurudham address.
The Jodhpur Gurudham address is Nikhil Mantra Vigyan, 14A, Main road, Dr. Shrimali Marg, High Court Colony, Jodhpur 342001, Rajasthan, India. The Telephone number is +91-(0291)-2638209/2624081 and telefax number is +91-(0291)-5102540.

It's another post with a drawing:
#1- Who drew the picture
#2- What animal is drawn (and how do you know… or why did you guess…)
#3- What's happening
It's got to be a bear, even though the head looks more like an alpaca – I can tell by the big paws and tiny tail. And it looks like a tranquilizer dart on its back. Not sure about the small black elliptical mark right next to the dart…hope it's not a tick…
First guess was alpaca and you were going to look at Equinox's grey spot on her back. But you have Jessi here who isn't a farmyard keeper and Dr.V who I think does the bear care. So maybe bears and you are gang hem acupuncture
* giving them.
Thought it was a horse at first, but with Jessi's name there it's got to be a bear. Sherry drew it, I think it's of Gus and that slash mark is his dread?
I already know what's happening from ETW meetings, so I won't guess that part

LOUISVILLE, KY. (WDRB) -- The Salvation Army says after our story aired Monday, it received enough turkeys to feed the hungry.
The organization needed about 45 turkeys to feed 800 people on Thanksgiving. The Salvation Army says Wal-Mart stepped up and donated all 45, and the public donated another 26 turkeys.
Donations of paper plates, cups, and plastic utensils are still needed. Those can be donated directly to the Salvation Army on South Brook Street.

Imagine the world of Puella Magi Madoka Magica, only without the Magical Girls, without the Witches, and without the Incubators, a world where the characters could live out their lives normally. Sounds nice, unless your name happens to be Kyoko Sakura, a delinquent girl without a home, without a family, and without a future, who simply exists from one ill-gotten meal to the next and has little hope of finding anything better. That is, until she attempts a grab-and-run on some rich girl with short blue hair...A Happy Dream is a Slice of Life AU fanfic by Angel0wonder that centers around relationship between the spunky but heartbroken Sayaka Miki and the rude-and-crude Kyoko Sakura, when the latter moves in with the former. But what sets it apart from other stories with similar concepts is the characterization: everyone is kept almost perfectly in character with their canon portrayals, and without the threat of the original plot hanging over their heads, they're given the space they need to develop their personalities naturally and work out their problems while finding new ones.
See Puella Magi Madoka Magica for tropes specific to canon.

As the twin-turbo V8 says hello in 2011, Nowack Motorsports has prepared a special edition BMW M5 as a farewell celebration for the naturally aspirated V10 model. Called the BMW M5 Hans Nowack Edition, this special edition is a tribute from Oliver Nowack to his father Hans, creator of world famed race and road engines and one of the inventors of what is nowadays called ECU-Tuning.
The car is equipped with two Nowack Motorsports bespoke intake air collectors and, of course, some good ol' Nowack ECU. This propels the Nowack Motors N635S 5.8 Hans Nowack Edition found in the BMW from 507 hp to an amazing 718 hp.
We wish we could say that this engine was all the BMW M5 needs, but we could go for a nice, new little spoiler here and some side skirts there. Maybe something along the lines of the BMW X6 M that Nowack took a crack at back in March? Of course, if they are not going to add any other fancy schmancy components, any tuning firms out there ready to take a bite at this edition?
Press release after the jump.
Press release
A farewell celebration for the naturally aspirated V10 masterpieces of the BMW M GmbH: NOWACK MOTORS created a world unique state-of-the-art masterpiece to celebrate the end of the era of high revving naturally aspirated BMW M engines, the N635S 5.8 "Hans Nowack Edition", offering an unmatchable maximum power output of 718hp at 9.000rpm.
NOWACK MOTORS, the world's no. 1 specialist company for engineering and manufacturing unique high performance engines on basis of all BMW M engines (4-, 6-, 8- and 10-cylinder) unveils a world unique naturally aspirated masterpiece, the N635S 5.8 "Hans Nowack Edition".
The N635S 5.8 is a tribute from Oliver Nowack to his father Hans, creator of world famed race and road engines and one of the inventors of what is nowadays called ECU-Tuning. Hans Nowack was an overall technical genius who always had his own approach when engineering and building high performance engines, resulting in numerous glorious victories of his cars in international motorsports, like e.g. the victory of the European Touring Car championship with a BMW 635CSi with driver Helmut Kelleners. He never stopped to invent world-class high performance engines, and after his active career, he continued to be a mentor for his son Oliver, who followed him in his footsteps most successfully. Hans Nowack died in 2005, and Oliver created this engine to pay tribute to the lifework of his father.
It definitely is the pinnacle of all high performance engines ever built on basis of the M GmbH's 5.0ltrs. V10 offering a standard maximum power output of 507hp.
Classic mechanical tuning techniques, the usage of the latest, most advanced coating materials and techniques combined with a most sophisticated, individual remap of the ECU were always NOWACK MOTORS' no. 1 choice when increasing power and torque of naturally aspirated engines, further enhancing the thrill that only a naturally aspirated high performance engine provides. Forced induction, neither by supercharging nor turbo charging, never was an option to increase the performance of the 5.0ltrs. V10 engine as it does not suit the engine's overall technical layout and characteristics. Furthermore, a forced induction engine based on a NA engine never offers the refinement and reliability of a perfectly engineered and manufactured naturally aspirated high performance engine. Thus, it is the ultimate challenge for every high performance engine manufacturer.
Each NOWACK MOTORS N635S 5.8 ?Hans Nowack Edition" is equipped with two NOWACK MOTORS bespoke intake air collectors with a higher air volume in order to provide the engine with sufficient intake air quantity.
The colour of the paintwork for the air collectors is being determined by the exterior colour of the car.
Only this time, the name differs from all other NOWACK MOTORS creations. The name does not reveal the actual maximum power output of the engine, clearly separating this unique showcase of highly sophisticated manufacture of internal combustion engines from the N700 4.8 with 715hp, the latest high performance engine creation based on the new 4.4ltrs. BMW M Biturbo V8 engine of the new era being used in the X5M and X6M. As we all know, this engine will be used to propel the upcoming new M5 of the F10 series by next year.
All internal parts of the engine are being replaced by NOWACK MOTORS' high performance parts, thus every M5/M6 (also cars with a higher mileage), can be converted to a NOWACK MOTORS N635S 5.8 "Hans Nowack Edition".
As every engine is brand new after the conversion, NOWACK MOTORS provides an engine warranty of 12 months without kilometer limitation.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Food and Drug Administration needs more funding to help discourage staff turnover and help speed reviews, the agency's device chief said on Thursday.
FDA reviewers are stretched thin with a heavy workload and increasingly complex technologies to evaluate, Dr. Jeffrey Shuren told lawmakers at a hearing on device regulation's impact on jobs and patients.
"We need to find means to handle an ever increasing workload and reduce staff and manager turnover," Shuren told lawmakers on a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee.
Budget cuts proposed by House of Representatives Republicans would cause "increased delays" and "deny patients truly safe and effective innovative technologies," he said.
Shuren told reporters the FDA needed more funding from taxpayers or higher fees paid by companies seeking approval for their products. Device makers, which include Medtronic Inc, Johnson & Johnson and Boston Scientific, and the FDA are negotiating new fees that would take effect in late 2012.
House Republicans are pushing for cuts to taxpayer funding of the FDA and other agencies in a drive to reduce government spending, setting up a showdown with Democrats who are resisting major reductions.
Republican Representative John Shimkus told Shuren that increases in FDA funding from Congress were unlikely.
"You can ask all you want. There's no more money," Shimkus said. To create new jobs, "we have to ease the regulatory burden," he said.
Other lawmakers also urged Shuren to streamline the review process to help encourage investment and create jobs. Many mentioned their districts were home to device companies.
Industry witnesses said the FDA was discouraging venture capital investment in new technologies and threatening U.S. jobs with unpredictable and unreasonable demands on companies.
"Over the past few years it has been increasingly more difficult, more time consuming, more costly and less predictable to navigate the FDA approval process," said Josh Makower, an inventor who founded six medical device companies.
"As a result, investment is drying up, companies are moving overseas or closing their doors," he said.
The FDA's Shuren agreed the FDA needed to provide clarity in some areas. But he also said a "significant number" of applications to the agency are "incomplete or fail to address basic elements such as the device's proposed indications for use." That adds time to the review process, he said.
Other witnesses urged the FDA to properly balance a desire for new products with tough oversight of safety risks.
"Although we want to stimulate innovation and job creation, we cannot afford to allow deregulation to place the American public at risk," said Dr. Steven Nissen, head of cardiovascular medicine at the Cleveland Clinic and a critic of the FDA's safety oversight.

Shoppers World Brampton is a shopping mall in Brampton, Ontario, Canada. It is host to over 190 stores, including Canadian Tire, Winners and Staples. Target opened in the location of the former Zellers store.
A former bus terminal in the parking lot is scheduled for demolition, with the space to be reclaimed for mall parking. The new terminal for Brampton Transit and Mississauga Transit systems is at the south side of the complex, but does not share any access to the mall parking lot. There is also a GO Transit bus stop located to the north of the new terminal.
In 1961, Elder Mines & Development Ltd. and Peel Village Developments created Shoppers World Danforth. Targeted completion date was March 1962.[1]
The two developers merged into a new company, Peel-Elder Limited, and began development of Shopper's World Brampton on a farmer's field that had been purchased by Charles F. Watson of Peel-Elder Ltd. Peel-Elder Ltd. was also the developer of the Brampton's Peel Village community. In 1961, planned tenants were Loblaws, Zellers, Yolles, Bata Shoe, a Maher shoe store, Lady Ellis dress shop, Bi-Rite Drugs, Tip Top Tailors and banks. In all, it planned 55 stores, plus a department store, bowling alleys and a movie theatre.[2]
It opened in 1969 as Brampton's first indoor mall.[citation needed] Major tenants at the time were Kmart, Dominion and Canada Safeway. The movie theatre closed after several years. It was gutted, and re-opened as a Jumbo Video. The projection booth served as the manager's office.
In 1971, Simpsons Ltd. decided to build a location of its department store at the mall, at a cost in excess of $2 million. The first of six scheduled locations, it was to open in August 1972.[3] Simultaneous to this announcement, Peel-Elder Ltd. promised to expand the mall and their Peel Village development. In addition to high rise apartments and town houses, the developer intended to build a "motel-hotel convention centre and an office building", on 185 acres (0.75 km2) purchased for expansion purposes, back in 1959.[4] Peel-Elder owned the facility until at least 1979.[5]
In 1997, the mall was owned by Pensionfund Realty Limited,[6] a privately held real estate company owned by Morguard Investments.[7]
A massive renovation of the shopping complex[when?] brought a new wave of customers to come in. Shoppers World Brampton is home to some of Brampton's oldest family-operated businesses.[which?] In recent times, Shoppers World Brampton has hosted less traffic. Although still busy, many newer malls have taken the role Shopper's World once played including Bramalea City Centre and Heartland Town Centre in nearby Mississauga.[8]
The addition of a Canadian Tire big-box store to the Main Street side of the mall greatly changed the facade of the mall. Many smaller stores were moved or closed to allow for the inclusion of this additional anchor store. Staples Business Depot, another big-box format store, also moved into the mall in the locations previously held by Pascals and later, Winners. The Bay closed in May 2007, and Price Chopper closed a few months later, and has since been replaced by the multi-ethnic Ocean's Fresh Food Market, which opened in July 2008.
The former Simpsons/Bay store was demolished in October–November 2010, with plans submitted to the City of Brampton to redevelop the north end of the mall.[9] This redevelopment is now completed with most of the stores in this phase only accessible from outside, instead of from within the mall.
A Target store opened on March 19, 2013, in the space that had been occupied by Zellers and previously Kmart. This location was one of the first 24 locations to open in Canada.[10]
- Target (121,490 sq ft (11,287 m2)
- Canadian Tire (83,500 sq ft (7,760 m2))
- Oceans Fresh Food Market (42,150 sq ft (3,916 m2))
- Winners (30,357 sq ft (2,820 m2))
- Staples (26,590 sq ft (2,470 m2))
Previous anchors[edit]
- 1977: K-Mart, Simpsons, Supersave Drugs, two supermarkets[11]
- 2007: The Bay, Price Chopper
- 2012: Zellers
- At one point, the mall included a waterslide and an arcade.[12]
Transit terminal[edit]
Brampton Transit operated a bus station located on Steeles Avenue in the southwest corner of the mall property until the fall of 2012, when the new Gateway Terminal started operations. The new bus station is located at the southeast corner of the Shopper's World Brampton property, at the intersection of Steeles Avenue and Main Street, with several bus platforms having direct access to the streets.
The previous terminal shared road space with mall customers and staff for some access into the transit terminal. The new terminal offers exclusive access to the buses that use it. In order to construct this exclusive access, one of the secondary entrances to Shoppers World was closed and diverted into the terminal from Steeles Avenue.
Gateway Terminal is the third bus terminal built at Shoppers World. The previous one (the second) opened in the beginning of July 2001, replacing a 20-year old terminal at the east side of the mall,[13] around where the north end of Canadian Tire is today.

Blues Goalkeeper to wear armband against Scotland.
Related Links
Jurgen Klinsmann has confirmed that Tim Howard will again captain the United States in their friendly with Scotland on Friday evening.
The Blues goalkeeper will wear the armband with regular skipper, Seattle Sounders' Clint Dempsey, absent due to a calf injury.
It will be the fourth time this year that Howard has led the US after captaining his nation in games against Honduras, Bosnia & Herzegovina and most recently Jamaica last month.
At Hampden Park, Howard could line-up against his Everton teammate Steven Naismith, who is expected to play some part for Gordon Strachan's side.
Friday's friendly acts as crucial preparation for the US ahead of next summer's World Cup, where Head Coach Klinsmann believes they can make an impression.
He said: "I'm in a role right now where I can guide the US team to a very exciting World Cup and our goal is to improve and get everyone on another level.
"A lot of our players over the last 10 to 15 years have stepped it up and have come over to Europe to play for good clubs, Tim included.
"They have proved that American soccer players can be extremely successful. It's an exciting time and we want to continue to grow."

Joy Behar Peppers Gov. Nikki Haley with Liberal Talking Points During Segment On Her New Book

Gov. Nikki Haley (R-S.C.) appeared on the April 3 edition of ABC's The View to discuss her new book, "Can't Is Not an Option." Liberal journalist and View host Barbara Walters hoped to conduct a relatively positive interview, hailing Haley as a "true American success story."
To be fair, Behar admitted her own bias, confessing she's coming at the presidential campaign as "of course, a liberal Democrat."

You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"You can change whatever you need to on these invites. We changed the directions to information. And then just included information on where to book a place to stay and what restaurants where around. Plus it was a good way to provide activities for people to do and other little information."
"I used these cards to give guest hotel accommodation information. Everything was completely customizable and matched perfectly to my invites and RSVP cards. The card size is about the same as the RSVP card but in portrait (not landscape)... it's the perfect accompaniment to the invitation suite!"
"Was able to have text on both sides of the card, one for accommodations and online RSVP info, and the other for directions to the venue."
"We used this as more of a general information card. The designer was very helpful in getting all the information correct. Love the colors and casual, modern feel of this set."
"I have a fold out invitation with side pockets and needed to add enclosure cards detailing menu options, hotel info and the day's events. The main section is Copper with White lettering. I bought this insert in Aqua and changed around the wording to create a sort of 'Experience' page detailing the day's events. I love the combo and layered this card over a different, slightly larger card with a colorful design underneath. Beautiful with the Copper!"

this song is as "me" as any song can get! i know ive been using this bassline forever, but i cant stop :D I cant seem to get tiered of playing around it. this song is actually around 3 years old! but it had a major remake. ive spent some time on this, but i dont know if you can actually hear that.. since ive tried to make the song as crisp as possible yet get the feel i wanted. it truly is music fit for videogames.
im alittle worried of it going to high on some notes.. but it will have to do!

The toddler years are a fabulous time for fashion conscious moms. Why? Well, before long, your kid will be insisting on picking out her own clothes -- and there's no telling what will end up on her back. (Chances are, you won't like it.)
That's why it's so important to instill a basic fashion sense now, while you still can. With any luck, once she gets that green mohawk phase out of her system, she'll go back to the classics she was raised wearing.
Here are the essential pieces every stylish toddler needs in her closet ...
1. A well-fitting pair of jeans.
Right? The perfect pair of jeans is like the Holy Grail of the modern wardrobe, and with good reason. Awesome jeans can be dressed down or up, worn all year-round, and also happen to be sturdier than most pieces of clothing. Plus, when they do finally start to rip, they'll look even cooler!
2. A jacket.
I'm not talking about that puffy thing you zip up on snowy days -- boys and girls alike all need the One Cool Jacket that pulls any look together. Whether it's a modified blazer (cute with the aforementioned jeans!), an army-inspired jacket, or a little bomber, this crucial piece of outerwear tells the world your tot has it going on.
3. A simple white top.
The sooner in life she figures out which version of this staple works best on her, the better. I'll let you in on a little secret: The feel is everything when it comes to the classic white top. Never stiff, always breathable -- comfort and ease is key.
4. Cotton t-shirts.
Actually, the secret I just told you applies big-time to cotton t-shirts, too. A soft tee is like an old familiar friend ... the last thing you want to subject your toddler to is one of those thick, scratchy tees that needs about 100 rounds in the washing machine to be broken in. Another tip: Here's one area where you can get a little funky. A retro logo or pattern under that blazer is trendy without being too much.
5. Socks.
Of course a kid needs socks, you're thinking. Yes, but more than that, a kid needs the right socks. It's crucial that socks fit well -- too big or too small and your toddler will be very unhappy -- and to be perfectly honest, you need lots and lots of them. Stock up on a supply of basic colors (this way, when you lose one sock, you'll have another that matches it somewhere), but don't forget to have some fun, too. Like t-shirts, socks are a great place to get crazy -- a fun pattern peeking out from underneath those jeans says, "Hey, I'm a kid who likes to have some fun."
What basics are in your toddler's closet?

Luckily my twins haven't out grown many of their clothes from the last shopping trip we made. I only need to get a couple more pairs of jeans, some solid color leggings and of course the required new school dress.
my 3 year old lives in ballerina tutus and princessy dresses. we do keep the staples on hand for going out though, leggings and tunic tops, shorts and tanks, etc. but your suggestion of 'a basic white tee'... on a toddler?!? it'll stay white for all of 3 seconds! LOL
That's exactly what I thought kittie! HA!
The jacket is a smart thing though. Toddlers in little jackets are so cute!
I don't put white on my toddler. For OBVIOUS reasons. And I've never seen a toddler in jeans long enough to rip them. I have clothes from every age range in the closet with tags still on them because they outgrew them.
White is not part of our waredrobe. I dont even know why white is soo popular for babies and toddlers. LOL !
These are great ideas though !
Those are the items I wear, but I'm far from stylish! I don't think toddlers know what the word "stylish" even means, nor would they care.
This made me laugh. Sorry but I just don't think this much about dressing a toddler. lol

Quebec's finest hockey team, the Montreal Canadiens, welcomes a fellow Canadian side, the Winnipeg Jets, to the Bell Centre tonight (Tuesday) with both in search of a fourth straight victory at this early stage of the season. Since a close-fought defeat to division rival Toronto on opening night, the Habs have won three in a row, defeating Florida, Washington and New Jersey (all three of which made the postseason in 2012). The Jets, in their second season back in the NHL, lost their opening two matches, before posting wins over Washington, the Penguins and the Islanders.
It's been a positive start to this campaign for both of these outfits, who failed to make the playoffs last time around. Montreal look to have established themselves some character, much improved from last season's somewhat broken side. Carey Price is back to his best in between the pipes. He's recorded 1.73 goals against average and a save percentage of .936. Price looks comfortable out on the ice and strong across the crease.
The Canadiens' number one goaltender is now playing again behind Andrei Markov, who seems to have rediscovered his offensive talent and power play quarterbacking abilities, notching four goals so far. 27-year-old Raphael Diaz is also playing well on the back-end. Rookie forward Alex Galchenyuk is enjoying a promising start to his NHL career and young Brendan Gallagher scored his first goal in the win over the Devils. Both look composed and confident on the ice already and will remain with the roster. One negative for the Habs is the injury to top line forward Max Pacioretty, who had an appendectomy and will now miss 3-4 weeks, which is a long time in this shortened season.
The big talking-point in Montreal in recent times has been the P.K. Subban situation and this has perhaps overshadowed the strong rebound that the team has made in 2013. Finally, though, Subban has put pen to paper on a new two-year deal with the Habs. An already elite but still up-and-coming defenseman, he was a player that they couldn't afford to lose from the roster. The reason for the length of time needed for P.K. to sign a new deal was believed to be that Montreal weren't prepared to pay him enough. Looking at the contract though, it's still an absolute bargain for the most successful NHL team in history. $2 million this year and then $3.75 million the year after. Having Subban in the line-up is only going to improve this Canadiens team. He won't be part of the game against the Jets but will be likely to return against the Buffalo Sabres on Saturday.
Winnipeg is enjoying a balanced start to the season, with points being spread across the board. Big Dustin Byfuglien, Evander Kane and Tobias Enstrom are all tied with six points, with Andrew Ladd and Blake Wheeler each have five. They've also showed everyone their battling abilities as they came from two goals behind in their last two home games, at the still incredibly loud MTS Centre, to triumph. Those are games that perhaps they wouldn't have won last season.
So, we have two teams that are trying to bounce back from disappointment last season. Montreal, particularly, had a woeful 2011-12, as they finished dead last in the East. Home form is so crucial to both sides. They have two of the loudest buildings in the league, with some of the most passionate fans to drive them on. Once the fans are behind the team at the Bell Centre, it's tough for the opposition to fight back in matches. Away form well and truly let Winnipeg down last season and that is a key area that they need to improve in, and there are not many more intimidating barns to play in than at Montreal. It's an all-Canadian affair between Claude Noel's Winnipeg Jets and Michel Therrien's Montreal Canadiens tonight at the Bell Centre. Every game of this 48-game campaign is vital.

Anonymous said: Holy mother of all doodles! How can your SAI hold so many textures?
SOBS DEEPLY BECAUSE IT CAN'T. I learned the hard way that SAI can only hold a maximum of 99 textures in any one menu (( ex: PaperTex, BrushTex, etc. )), but that doesn't stop me from switching them around every once in a while. 9w9;;;
