I don't know about you…but this week has just seemed to drag along slower than, well…slower than Christmas. I guess it's the combination of the Thrashers playing so well lately, the fact that their last outing was a very exciting 3-2 overtime win against a solid Nashville squad and that they haven't played since last Monday.
But yes Thrasherville, finally it's FRIDAY!
With the weekend comes a pair of games for us to enjoy…the first tonight as the Colorado Avalanche pay us a visit. Then tomorrow night they'll wing their way up to Lonnnnn-Gisland for a matchup against New York. It will be the first of four back-to-back sets for the Thrashers before we say good-bye to old man 2010 in three weeks.
The Avs come to town on a four-game losing streak, although only one has been in regulation. In the past seven games they are 1-3-3, which includes the 3-2 overtime loss to Atlanta last November 30.
"The mindset right now is just [gaining] two points", Avalanche goalie Craig Anderson said of his team's recent struggles. "For me right now, it's also that I just stay in the lineup. I can't have anymore letdowns for me or that team."
Anderson is 4-4-2 with a .908 SV% and a 2.90 GAA. In is career against the Thrashers, he's 3-1-1 with a2.56 GAA and .924 SV%.
The Islanders are…well…the Islanders.
They are 5-15-5 overall, 1-15-3 in their last 19 games played and their 15 points are the fewest of any team in the league. The Islanders have no player with more than 15 overall points and they have but one player on the positive side of the +/- rating…defenseman Travis Hamonic who is a +1 and has play in only 6 games.
Their 55 total goals scored are second lowest behind only the…shall we say… offensively-challenged New Jersey Devils, who have just 50 goals to their credit. In fact, speaking of the Devils, the last game the Islanders won was the day after Thanksgiving when they blanked them 2-0 behind Rick DiPietro's 29 saves.
Yeah…the Isles are fighting it.
"I know it's mentally tough for those guys, but they've got to find it within themselves in that room", interim coach Jack Capuano recently said of his Islanders team. "They've got to have a little attitude and swagger to their game. You can look at the standings, but we've got to have some attitude, play with an edge and have the confidence and belief that we can win some hockey games".
The Thrashers…well, they are a different story, my friends. This team is hotter than a Victoria's Secret runway show. They have won eight of their last nine and sport the NHL's second-best power play unit, successful 24.8% of the time. Vancouver is 25.0%.
Atlanta has been dropping in goals at a rate of 3.11 per game, which is currently seventh best…just .02 behind Washington and Pittsburgh…thanks in large part to their ability to get pucks and bodies to the net consistently. Going into this weekend's action, they are getting off 31.1 shots on goal per game. Oh, and their goals against average is a respectable 2.79.
Given that the entire squad seems have embraced this new total team concept to attacking and defending, it's tough to single out one or two players that seem to be making the greatest impact on their recent success. It seems that every night it's a different play making the difference in a Thrashers win.
However, Ondrej Pavelec's play in goal has to place right on top of that list. He is now 9-5-2 with an outstanding 1.71 GAA and .947 SV%. He also has a pair of shutouts to show for his efforts as well.
We'll see Chris Mason again tomorrow night on the Island. Given the fact that it's a back-to-back set…and he hasn't played since getting the hook in D.C. way back on November 14…he'll be skated out between the pipes for that game.
Mason is 6-5-1 with a 3.90 GAA and .897 SV%. But while he's been with what Opie has done lately, just as we all have been, he's ready to get back in there and do his part to help this team continue their winning ways.
"Its been fun watching", Mason told the AJC's Ken Sugiura earlier this week. "But I'm definitely looking forward to getting back into the nets".
The Thrashers leader in overall points is Dustin Byfuglien, who has 29. His 10 goals are tied for the top spot with Captain Ladd and his 19 assists are equal to Toby Enstrom. The Buffinator has 4 power play goals, which tie him for the team lead in that stat with Ladd, Anthony Stewart, Nik Antropov and Rich Peverley.
Buff also leads in game-winners for the Thrashers. He has five of those so far…no one else has more than one. Two of those have come in overtime, one against Buffalo and the other to dispose of the Islanders last month.
Your +/- leaders on the Thrashers team are Ben Eager and Eric Boulton…both +6.
See ya tonight at Philips Arena gang. Oh, and if you're part of the crowd joining us in section 204…be prepared to have some fun. If you think it's too late to get in on the $30 ticket and a Thrashers tee-shirt deal, you're wrong. You can still call Karin at 404-878-3781 to get hooked up.
It's sure to be a blast…definitely worth the wait for Friday.

Ah crap, can't win them all.
Been ready for tonight since Monday night, which must have been about a month ago! Already gave a pair of tickets to some hockey newbies to come out and watch, and I've got a couple more newbies coming in January.
Let's Melt the Avalanche! (or something else equally cheesy which still sounds better than A Brutally Good Time)

If there was ever an apt name for a passionate hockey fan/blogger, Tiller is it!
Another name for cultivator, Tiller, is doing all he can to prepare the ground, plant the seeds, and help oversee the growth of the new, passionate Thrashers fan. Not to mention those withering plants (R. Stroz, DWTOO, Joe Friday, etc.) that have been around for the past 11 years. LOL
You are to be commended sir for your efforts on the behalf all of hockey fans in Atlanta. Keep up the fine Tilling Bill.
Thrashers are 4-1-1 in their last 6 games vs the Avalanche, and host Colorado for just the 5th time since March '02. The Avalanche are 6-6-3 on the road this season.

Nice to see that somebody has been writing during this GoG (Gap of Games). I know that Chris has been taking a much needed rest after his 3-a-day posts.

Everyone remember how it seemed as if the thin air in Denver had an effect on our boys? Almost makes me think everyone going to the game tonight should have a varsity chilli dawg and make it tough for the Avs to breathe Most locals should be used to the after effects of the Varsity.
All kidding aside I am hopeful to see a sea of Thrasher Blue tonight! Go Thrashers!
December 10th, 2010

Notch the Squatch!
The most telling stat right now, IMO, is Boulton being the team leader at +6. He isn't an offensive force nor does he play on a particularly offensive-strong line — so what THAT number means is that everyone, across the board, is playing solid D and 'downhill' to the opposing goal.
December 10th, 2010
11:57 am
will be rocking it in the Bulb tonight!!!
December 10th, 2010

Boulton's Christmas card is hilarious – might have to buy those tonight!
December 10th, 2010
12:17 pm
From a fans' perspective, tonight may be one of the more important games in recent Thrasher history. The team is finally the buzz of the town again, all be it a smaller buzz than what a football or baseball team would create. But we can expect to see a bigger and better crowd here tonight, hopefully similar to the one that occupied the Bulb after the Kovy trade, when Bergfors scored the winner late against Miami. We need a good game and effort to keep things moving.
Both the Avs and Islanders are struggling, which makes a fast start and good effort imperative. I think Rammer knows that, he'll have the peddle down early on the boys tonight. Professional hockey, as we know it may finally be back in Atlanta. I plan on having no voice tomorrow. Hotter than a Vickie's Secret Runway-I like that one Mr. Rawhide, very good.

Damn red jerseys on Friday!! Guess you could call it
"Friday Fright Night" at the Bulb!!
I hope Big Buff scares the puck into the net with his stick a couple more times to ignite the home crowd and convert some neophyte fans!
Bill – one last thing, we unfortunately are not getting 34.9 SOG, but we are giving up 34.9 SOG thru 28 games. Hiiiievah, we have only given up an avg of 32.4 in the last 15 while getting 34.1 SOG ourselves during that stretch.

I for one did not mind the extra few days off this time around only from the standpoint of Kane and Toby getting extra time to fully recover from their respective injuries, although they did come back Monday night. Hopefully they're back to full strength now. With the college football just about over, I'm hoping for a respectable crowd tonight. Go Thrashers!!
December 10th, 2010
1:39 pm
I'll be there with my wife! Please let there at least be 16,000 in the Bulb tonight. Thanks for doing your part Mr. Tiller with the 204 Section! I can tell you that the Team is excited about this season and the boys love and respect Rammer! I was told that he makes great adjustments on the fly and couple of the players told me that he is a great teacher of the game. It's sure looks like the boys in Blue are listening in class.

moriler – no doubt, the "bottom" lines have been key. When you can dictate match-ups and take teams out of their rhythm by bashing their heads in, its a very good thing. The greek gods have been bashing lots of heads. In fact, and I'll probably jinx them by typing this but they deserve their due: the trio has not been on the ice for an ES goal against in TEN games!! In fact, Boulton has not seen a goal go in while he's out there in 15 games, Slater 10 gms and Thorburn 15!!
Nice work lads!
And by the way, Antropov and Burmy are slowly starting to gel. If Antro starts shooting more, look the hell out. That "third" line may end up being the best weapon we have against top lines who don't care much for playing int their own end!!
Go Thrashers!!

Nice little stretch we have coming up. 13 games in 22 days. That averages out to a game every 40 hours and 36 minutes, based on whole days. Figuring it from game start times, it shrinks to about a game every 39 hours. I hope we can avoid a lot of OT/shoot out games.
December 10th, 2010
2:15 pm
You wanna get people to The Bulb?
Sign Buff and Ladd to long term contracts, show the commitment needed to convince people this team is here for the long term, not some traveling show that stops in ATL for a couple performances. People want to see commitment before they will make committ, putting their hearts and wallets behind the team.

4:51 pm
Thanks for doing all you can to continue to open people's eyes to the tremendous product that is now on the ice in Blueland. It has been a long road, but we now have a team that has the ABILITY to play consistently good hockey. With that in mind, please folks, do not go right off the deep end if this team has a few more scuffs along the way. They are apt to lose 3 of 4 sometime. That doesn't change what has happened, which we can all see clearly with our own eyes. If you have been this patient (waiting 11 years for a good team), then continue that patience as they learn how to be a consistent winner in the coming months.
Go Thrashers!!!

Just heard something interesting on the Hockey Night in Canada on Friday night game between periods of the Red Wings and Canadians game.
1,100 Quebec City fans are going to be going to the Islanders – Thrashers game to sing the Nordiques fight song to show that they deserve the Thrashers to move to Quebec.
My response, F#@K EM.
December 10th, 2010
9:09 pm
The Avs have been in town the past couple of days and look like they have rested up and came to play. The Thrashers have made the most of their opportunities and tied it in the 2nd on a beautiful goal by Little off a great Kane pass.
I could watch the Thrashers and Avs play every night. Good fast hockey going on out there.
December 10th, 2010
10:29 pm
That kind of effort will not bring the extra fans that showed up tonight back for another game any time soon. Very disappointing.
December 10th, 2010
10:50 pm
Not sure what game you saw Nate. They had a couple let downs but Little or Ladd control the puck and bury the open nets they saw or Eager's shot in the last couple of minutes bounces a couple inches higher and we are high fiving through the streets tonight.
The boys played a good game. You saw the two fastest teams in the NHL tonight flying up and down the rink. And we lost what was essentially a 1 goal game with lots of pressure at the end.
If you expect every game to be a 5-1 win you are sadly mistaken.
December 10th, 2010
11:37 pm
and as usual, the fans show up and we crap the bed . . . but even given that we played like the old thrash, they could have won that game, so we have that going for us

Went and watched another hockey game live tonight. Just watched the replay. That was a good hockey game played by two good, young and fast hockey teams.
Kane had something to prove tonight after Duchene beat him bad during the 3rd in CO. He did and his line with Little and Stewart were ATL's best.
The bounces definitely went CO's way tonight. That is going to happen. They had payback on their minds and played very well. The game had a playoff feel to it.

Rawhide – Great crowd in Section 204. Your group even made the "Groups" board during intermission. Well done sir.
However, the noise in your section was a mere pittance in comparison to Section 222.
WBF – Now you where the best seats in the arena are.
Flames – Nice to meet you.
Joe Bob Friday – Flames is for real, trust me on this one.
Paminski – Nice to meet you as well. You'll have to overlook the "Buffalo Sucks" comments, it's become a form of Tourette's Syndrome, just ask WBF.

You can't win them all. Colorado played hard against the Thrashers. Pavs continues his stride. It was still fun to see and great to see so many fans cheering on the home team.
December 11th, 2010
9:35 am
With the group coming down from Quebec for the Islanders game and the thinking in Winnipeg and Quebec that the Thrasher's are their birthright these days, it has gotten me thinking.
I expect this board to get spammed by folks like Nate or Michael "the abbreviation" trying to destroy morale and dissuade folks from attending the game. Odds are they are sitting in their unheated basements wrapped in furs typing these posts thinking they are doing their part in getting the Thrashers to move.
December 11th, 2010
10:28 am
Yes, a rather disappointing game to say the least. It took much longer for the boys to find their "sea legs" last nite. I fully expected COL to outskate them early and control the tempo, but not to that degree early on. 16 to 4 in shots is unacceptable. After the early goal by Bergie, it looked like we were going to seize the momentum and keep the pressure up. But then Oduya had to go and spoil it with a silly cross-check penalty. Luckily we dodged that bullet but it gave back the momentum and any surge was killed.
In the second I though the call on Pevs was highly questionable as it looked like he was using his stick to pitch-fork the puck loose, but from 317 I couldn't tell if he used his free hand for leverage. But what really was killer was the dumb play by Bogey (yes the ref got in the way but he had plenty of time to "rag" the puck as they used to say in the olden days) shooting the puck down the ice well before it was necessary. We got caught in a line change and next thing you know the puck is in the back of our net. Had Zach waited a bit, the boys would've had plenty of time to change and we may have been able to thwart their next rush up the ice. The PK was good all nite save for that stupid play leading to Flash's goal.
The 3rd period was agonizing! I'm glad in retrospect that my brief little visit with Rawhide and Co cost us a chance to see the goal against live. Obviously a rare breakdown behind our net and we got beat on the short-side. Nothing Pavs could've done on that one I reckon. But man so many damn chances and no finish. The thing that bothered me the most last nite is that we didn't seem to sustain pressure in their end long enough to get their D to break down. We seem to be relying more on break-outs and rushes up the ice for either an open look or a shot through traffic for a rebound. But the boys aren't getting to the net fast enough most of the time. We need to commit to establishing the cycle play down low like in the 1st when Big Buff was winning a puck battle in the corner to feed Ladd who then fed a streaking Bergfors. Get back to basics fellas and don't get caught up in a track meet against a speedier opponent!
But I will give credit where it is warranted. COL was ready to play and had fire in their bellies with nothing but revenge on their minds. They played hard from the first puck drop and had us on our heels too much in the 1st. They seemed rested, aggressive and faster than us most of the nite. Anderson was okay but we didn't get enough rubber on him for juicy rebounds as he seemed prone to give up a rebound 1/2 the time we did get pucks on him. Just can't win at home if we aren't going to get 30+ shots in a game where the other team is shelling our net. In our wins at home, we avg something like 34 SOG. Last nite we didn't get shot 20 until what, half way through the third??
December 11th, 2010
11:42 am
Tom – I'm not trying to demoralize anyone, but I'm not looking through rose-colored glasses either. I went to the game. The Thrashers spent most of the first two periods in their own zone. They were getting outshot 21 – 7 at one point!
How is that a good effort?!?
Even Ladd admitted after the game they didn't play a full 60 minutes which was an understatement.
Joe Friday – Agreed. I mentioned that to my dad who was sitting next to me after the second period that maybe this team has turned a corner when they can play so badly and still be tied after two periods.
And then the beginning of the third period happened…
I can understand not winning them all, but when you come out flat getting outshot 16-5 in the first in front of the largest contingent of Thrashers fans since opening night…it does not encourage the casual fan to come back.
That's all I'm saying. Am I wrong?
December 11th, 2010
11:45 am
By the way Tom, I've attended five games this year on a shoe-string budget in an effort to keep this team in town. How many have you been to?

Calm down, people. It's just one lousy game. Relax. If anyone heard Ramsay's presser, they'd know what went wrong, and what needs to get better. That man can drop science like Mr. Wizard's World.
We've got 55 games left in the season. We're bound to drop a few stinkers. Especially since we're still a young, developing team.

Well as for section 204 not being loud…….I am hoarse today! They got away from their game last night. Too fancy at the blue line and not enough dump, chase, check going on. Stewart needs to figure out he is a big guy and lay it on a few people! Amazing what a few good checks will do to the opposition! Even Eager looked like he didn't want to hit someone. Bolts had one good one chasing the puck all the way down the ice and hitting their D, and Kane had one too but that was it. Also…..not to beat a dead horse but the music people need to wake up. Did they get stuck in traffic and not show up til the 2nd period? GET THE CROWD INVOLVED EARLY AND OFTEN THROUGH the music and then continue it. Thrash was decent getting his drum going and came over in front of 204 as we must have been a good catalyst for him LOL Linesman has to get out of the way. No way that is Zach's fault. Shorthanded line change in the second and it killed us!
December 11th, 2010

Get butts in the seats earlier – 1st period reminded me of a Falcons game. Offer $3 beer until puck drop that will get them in their seats.

The only good thing about people from Quebec City is that they hate the Habs.
I get the feeling we are going to see an old school Italy-France hooligan battle in the stands tonight.
Feel bad for the team that they basically have to deal with these patronizing Quebecois, can't even start building their arena until they get a handout from their federal government(which may not come if Edmonton doesn't get some for their arena)….yet they want to run their mouths about who deserves a hockey team.

Nate – 4 games that I could not afford. Going next Saturday as when I go I always bring my kids. While I watch every game I can, missed only 1 last season, I know that my going to the games and leaving my boys behind is no way to live. So I have to save up for 4 tickets every time we go.
Sorry if I got under your skin but I am really frustrated with people expecting perfection from this team and then ragging them when they do not get it every time. Even the Red Wings have a down game or two.
But let me tell you something. The game last night was amazingly fast. I was watching the Red Wings and Canadians play on the NHL channel at the same time. The difference between the two games was night and day. Colorado and the Thrashers were flying while the Red Wings and Canadians were skating in mud. That is the perception that I had.
Sure Colorado had more shots, but the Thrashers had better shots overall.
December 11th, 2010
1:13 pm
Bill – Good to meet you last night (my son & I were sitting next to Paminski(?) – BTW sorry we crossed over you guys there in the 2nd period before their goal). A lot of fun and those are good seats. Thanks for the blog in general and the ticket deal in specific.
To these untrained eyes, it seemed like they were a little sloppy with the puck and their passes were kinda off.
Go Thrashers!

Great to meet so many of you last night. Tho we lost, at least it was good company. Good to see you again Russian and Smoothie. Great to meet Mrs. Rawhide, R. Stroz, Valerie, 3trees and Flames. But sorry all of you…the real treat was meeting my fellow Buffalo native, WBF!

First game I attended this year. Disappointing, but these games happen to good teams. I just wish it would happen on a night when I watch on TV. Linesman #93 needs to get off the ice. Does anyone know what attendance was?

"Linesman #93 needs to get off the ice."
I'm a little hoarse from yelling at him and the refs, they had bad nights.

Well the last 2 games I failed to wear the proper head gear throughout the game. Wore the blue Thrashers cap to the Fla lose instead of the red one. 2-1 lose. Wore my Santa hat but brought the red one to wear during last nights game, turned it around for rally and Thrashers tied it…..took it off for intermission and put Santa back on, then put cap back on but apparently the damage had already been done. My wife yelled at me before the 3rd period started! Promise next game I attend will only bring red cap! UGH

thanks, Joe.
Seems our attendance is at least better than the Isles and Coyotes; why is nobody yelling to move the Isles to Winnipeg? Sounds like regional prejudice to me. If anyone says, "its because the Isles suck this year", think about the Thrash's entire history. We're really just starting, we didn't have a team that looked for real before now. I'm just saying what others have said before, success is needed to establish a new fan base.

Jesus people that was not a poorly played game by the Thrashers! They played hard and fast just like Colorado did. ATL's passing and play-making were crisp. Their breakouts and puck movement through the neutral zone are becoming a thing of beauty. They fore-check and back-check! A bounce here or their and it's a different outcome.
I know a lot of people have an emotional attachment to the game but a loss by the Tharshers does not equal a great tragedy for the franchise. They played well, both teams did. The Thrashers and Avalanche are two very similar teams playing the same game. Colorado is a good team! This was not a game that they were expected to dominate and win. Yes I know Coach Ramsay and the players expect to win every game – all good teams do – but that is not reality.
It was a hard fought playoff style game that could have gone either way. I enjoyed watching it and liked what I saw. A win would have been great but that loss is not the end of the season nor a sign of a troubling losing streak ahead.
If they lay a steamer on the Long Island ice tonight, then B and moan all you want. But last night is not a game to declare these Thrashers "worst ever". Learn from a loss and learn to lose with some rational pride. It's just as important as learning to win.

Guys, I have no idea what game some of you were watching. We were leading 1-0 after the first period in spite of ourselves. If Pavs isn't having a good game (not great, but good), we could easily be down 3-1 after the first period. It seems like we really didn't skate until about the 8-minute mark of the second period.
Yes, we had a couple of nice plays early on, but we just didn't have the usual puck possession. We looked good towards the latter stages of the second period, but again, we didn't skate to start the third and they scored the game-winner.
All that being said, there's no point in starting "I've been to X games, how many have YOU been to?!" pissing matches. Everyone that posts here (except the French-Canadian lurkers) is a fan of the team in some way. The economy stinks and sometimes you have to stay home and watch games. Sometimes you can afford to go to games. Everyone has their reasons for their decisions to go to games or not go to games, and just because you go to a certain number of games more than someone else, you aren't that much more of a fan either.
P.s. Since they put the BLACK CURTAIN OF DOOM over the 400s, I doubt we'll ever have more than 16,000 until when/if we make the playoffs.

Nice to meet you and the family last night BlogMaster. Great showing, the entire 204 section was packed! Looking forward to the 1/14 game to do it again.
Way to go for your young man too.
Jason, it's my understanding that the "Black Curtain of Doom" would come down for any games that sells out in the 100s, 200s and 300s. They would make the 400s available if they needed to.
So, let's make them need to do that.

Alan R. – My inner Rod (Cuba Gooding character in Jerry MaGuire) came out for a sec. "No heart?!? I'm all heart M#$#$% F#$#$#!" My apologies. I just can't stand being called out like that.
Tom – You're comments infuriated me since I attend all the games I can, observed last night's game in person, and am not sitting around in a basement somewhere. I'm actually a huge fan so much so I attended my first preseason game this year. It's a fact that Colorado spent more time in Atlanta's zone than Atlanta did in theirs. I wasn't able to watch the Wings game but I can tell you from attending in person that Colorado was flying a lot more than Atlanta up until the last 15 minutes of the game. And that's not enough against a quality opponent like the Avs. I don't know what the final tally was on quality scoring chances but the Avs definitely had more going into the last 15 minutes of the game.
So I have to respectfully disagree that the Thrashers had better shots overall. They just didn't spend enough time in the Avs zone last night. Simple as that.
But it was only one game and I expect a better effort tonight against the Isles. No doubt about that.

exactly. We stayed in it despite being outplayed. Pavs made some big saves, and we missed a few opportunities. Truth be told we got away from our game, plain and simple. Ramsey saw that and maybe this shake up let's them know. Get it deep, put a hit on them, and play HOCKEY! That being said it wasn't the end of the world, just a reminder we are not a finesse team and as such we have to keep our nose to the grind if we are to be successful!

This effort is disgraceful. Absolutely pathetic. They don't seem to have any idea of what they need to do to be successful. Not getting the puck deep enough and when they do, no fight to stay on the puck. Near goal by Enstrom but seems like we are just flinging it at the net to see if we get lucky. Better than skating in offsides on an ill-fated rush up the ice I suppose. Ay carumba this sucks.

Someone needs to ask Rammer what the deal is with Bergie. Seems like there are a few other ones that should be sitting instead. I'm hoping that Rammer just sees a ton of potential in Bergie and he's not getting it – same label he got in NJ. I just can't see Rammer sitting him for something petty. BTW – Bergie's not gonna get a big paycheck from anyone if he keeps this underachieving label. Rammer is probably doing the kid a favor by trying to get him to play up to his potential.

Man was that ugly. But we're only 4 points out of first in the Southeast, with a game in hand. Rammer and Torc still have lots of work to do, and the December schedule is very crowded.

Tonight proved its not how you play the game, its winning that matters. Sloppy effort at the start but one hell of a great 3rd period – most points scored in one period (4) for the Thrash this season and the Nordique fans can suck on sour frogs legs for their ride back to frogville. If they want to poach a team, try the Islanders, who are now 1-16-3 for their last 20. They took the Flames – they will NOT take our Thrashers.
Go Thrashers!!
December 11th, 2010
11:49 pm
It's good to have that comeback-from-behind ability, but I hope the Thrash get back to the dominant defensive play they were displaying in the previous two weeks. That said, all teams have slumps, the better ones still win a good numbers of games when they aren't at their best. Lets see some more disciplined wins against the Sens and Lightning!

Jenkins goes on from mis-representing the past, to telling his readers that the local AFL-CIO took Labor Day weekend off after having a Friday morning banquet.
Funny thing is, I just returned from Horton Plaza where better than three hundred members of a least six unions that I counted, joined with local activists in a protest demanding "Jobs Not Cuts". Congressman (and Mayoral candidate) Bob Filner spoke, along with Congressional candidate Lori Saldana, AFL-CIO Secretary Lorena Gonzalez, and Frank Gormlie. There were TV crews from at least four local stations at the rally. And there was an earlier rally in support of the Grocery Workers just a few blocks away; the print edition of the paper even ran a teaser headline for a local scab tv station right next to Jenkins' column.
But, according to Jenkins, "[local labor leaders] Wouldn't want to clutter the long weekend with parades and fire-breathing speeches that, frankly, few would take the time to attend."

Recess-bound lawmakers romp over Reagan remembrance
…a nominee for the Joseph Welch Award for Demagoguery in Government
Assemblywoman Lori Saldaña, D-San Diego, complained that by creating a commission to develop "appropriate means" of marking Reagan's birth in 1911, the state would be wasting money during a period of austerity. She also criticized Reagan as an opponent of government. And, she noted, Illinois-native Reagan wasn't even born in California.
That led the bill's author, Assembly Republican leader Martin Garrick of Solana Beach, to point out that other individuals the state honors – Martin Luther King Jr. and Cesar Chavez – weren't California natives either.
Hey Marty, how about getting your constituents to pay for it? Some of them can pay for it without breaking a sweat. Fair is fair: these people (your constituents) benefit more from small government than most other Californians.

During the AllThingsD D10 conference, Apple CEO Tim Cook said "stay tuned." when asked about Facebook's absence on iOS.
With WWDC less than two weeks away, we can't help but to speculate that Facebook will get the iOS 5-Twitter treatment in iOS 6.
Now, according to a report from TechCrunch, the much-anticipated integration of Facebook will happen in "the latest version of iOS," codenamed "Sundance").
Facebook integration did appear in an iOS 4 beta build couple years ago. But didn't go through and Apple instead went with Twitter as the main third-party authentication and sharing service in iOS 5. After Twitter and Apple joined forces for iOS 5 in Oct. 2011, Twitter experienced a 25 percent worldwide lift in service signups.
Twitter will still very much be a part of the new iOS (presumably named "iOS 6″)and the company will talk about it at WWDC including the integration into the forthcoming OS X Mountain Lion. But Facebook integration will be very important for iOS and Facebook — tons of apps use Facebook for sign-ups and authentication. Apple realized this and thought of formally bringing Facebook on board.
What does this mean for Facebook users.
According to sources familiar with the Facebook integration into iOS 6, the integration will be very similar to Twitter's integration that launched with iOS 5. The integration's biggest presence will be in the iOS Photos application. Like you are able to send photos to Twitter from the Photos application, you will be able to post photos to Facebook. A single sign-on section for all Facebook connected applications is present in the iOS 6 system settings application. Like with Twitter, a new "social sheet," as some people familiar with the matter call it, will appear for an accompanying status message.
A second built-in advantage to Facebook integration could be the integration of the standard Facebook "Like" button on individual iPhone, iPad and iPod app pages, allowing a user to "like" an app and share it on their Facebook Timeline.
Separately, iTunes would have extra Facebook integration, according to the sources.
In February, Apple CEO Tim Cook told a group of investors that Facebook was "the one company that is closest to being like Apple".
Facebook addicts may welcome Apple's change of heart toward the social network, especially if they can share photos and articles straight from their iPhones and iPads.
Watch Tim Cook speak at D10 here:
According to the company, the WWDC event, will be held between June 11 and June 15 in San Francisco, will kick off with a keynote address on that Monday at 10 a.m. PT.
In other iOS 6 news, last week there were reports about Apple putting final touches on redesigned iOS Maps application, which could include 3D capabilities. Google, however, might attract the limelight with its June 6 maps event.

Reservation Athletic Center Committee
The reservation Activity Center Committee (RACC) will design, plan and implement the best reservation activity center in a cost effective, timely manner ensuring the project meets the needs, expectations of the Tribal Council and membership they serve.
Tribal Observer - Nov. 2008
Work continues on the feasibility study for a new community recreation center with particular attention being given to programming space. After the intial presentation to the Tribal council and subsequent meetings and discussions; the Reservation Activity Center Committee is proceeding with program space changes. The proposed changes as discussed in a recent October 16th RACC meeting include reducing the scope of the project in two ways.
First there will be an overall reduction in square footage by eliminating some components to the proposed facility. This will be accomplished by eliminating the competition swim lanes, a couple of classrooms, and the indoor play center. The second change aimed at reducing the scope of the project is to combine user spaces and increase multiuse zones. This second approach requires a subtle touch and makes scheduling more difficult but is an effective approach that should produce the results we are seeking.
The results of this current process will likely be completed by mid December and will include a new revised operational budget. Obviously the operational costs affect the projects build appeal, lower yearly expenses are more attractive. Current operational expenses of Health and Human Services sector of the Tribal government is in the millions; although this project would initially add expenses the long term benefit will be a healthier people, community, and reduced costs associated with caring for ill members.
Please direct any questions to a RACC member or contact Parks & Recreation and your comments will be handled accordingly.
On May 31, 2007, the RACC published the phase one results of a long term feasibility study that examines the demographics of the Saginaw Chippewa Indian Tribe and the greater Mt. Pleasant/Isabella County area and also reviews the other indoor recreation providers in the area. A public process has also been undertaken that gathers input from a number of different stakeholder meetings, a community meeting, and an informal survey.

4.1 The Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that the Publisher may use a third party to target the delivery of the Advertisement to those users of digital and online Media who meet certain criteria agreed between the Advertiser and the Publisher and as such the Advertisement may not be displayed to all users of such Media.
4.2 The Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that the Publisher may from time to time enter into deep linking arrangements with third parties, the effect of which may be to enable visitors to the Website to bypass pages displaying the Advertisement. The Publisher shall incur no liability as a result of or in relation to such deep linking arrangements and shall be under no obligation to consult with or notify the Advertiser of any such deep linking arrangements.
4.3 The Advertiser shall ensure that the Advertisement does not: (i) contain software or other material, data or information not owned or licensed to it; (ii) damage, interfere with or disrupt access to the Media or do anything which may interrupt or impair its functionality.
4.4 Save where the Publisher has given prior written permission, the Advertiser shall ensure that the Advertisement does not collect information about users of the Media (including in particular, but not limited to, aggregated data relating to the individual habits of users of the Media, or the names and addresses of such users) whether by way of "cookies" or any other means and whether personally identifiable data or not, in particular (but without limitation) in order to re-target such users via third party websites or to sell such aggregated data to third party networks. The Publisher reserves the right to reject any URL link or "cookie" (or similar technology) embodied within any Advertisement at any time and at its sole discretion. When seeking permission from the Publisher, the Advertiser must disclose to the Publisher: (i) what information it intends to collect; (ii) how it intends to use that information; (iii) whether it intends to: (a) disclose the data collected by the Advertiser to any third party; or (b) combine the data collected by the Advertiser with information from other sources; and (iv) any other information the Publisher reasonably requires to enable it comply with its legal obligations (including its privacy policy and its cookies policy).

In any case, the Price shall remain payable in full in accordance with paragraph 10.
4.6 If the Advertiser chooses to display an Advertisement which requires the services of a third party specialist, the Advertiser shall be responsible for all costs and expenses associated with the same, unless expressly agreed to the contrary and stated on the Offer.
5.1 For the avoidance of any doubt, the Advertiser acknowledges that the Advertisement shall appear in the print version of the Magazine only, not in any digital editions of the Magazine, unless set out in the Offer or otherwise agreed in writing between the parties.

6.3 If the Advertiser rejects the Creative, the Publisher shall make such amendments as are agreed between the parties and resubmit the amended Creative to the Advertiser for approval, provided that the Advertiser shall not request more than two sets of amendments. If the Advertiser fails to respond to a request for approval of the Creative within the timescale required by the Publisher, the Advertiser shall be deemed to have approved the Creative. The Advertiser acknowledges that time is of the essence and that production deadlines may not be extended.
6.4 The Advertiser's approval of the Creative, if applicable, will be the Publisher's authority to purchase production materials and prepare proofs. The Advertiser's approval of proofs, if applicable, will be the Publisher's authority to publish the Advertisement in accordance with the provisions of the Contract, or such other terms as may be agreed in writing by the parties from time to time.
6.5 The Publisher will advise the Advertiser of any changes in the estimated costs of items or any changes in plans, schedules or work in progress previously approved by the Advertiser, including the cost of any third party specialist required in order to complete the Advertising Services.

In the event that the parties are unable to reach agreement in relation to any such additional costs, the Publisher shall be entitled to cancel the Contract.
6.6 The Intellectual Property Rights in the Creative shall, as between the parties, vest in the Publisher unless otherwise agreed in writing in the Offer.

7.2 If the Advertising Services include Publisher purchasing Adwords on the Advertiser's behalf:

7.2.5 Advertiser shall contact Publisher (and not Google) if it requires support in relation to the Adwords Program, which shall be available by phone and email during the hours of 9am to 5pm on business days in the UK and Ireland;
7.2.6 Publisher shall provide to Advertiser on a monthly basis (or as otherwise agreed) the following information: (i) the number of impressions of the Advertisement delivered across the Google network; (ii) the number of clicks on the Advertisement delivered across the Google network; and (iii) the amount of money spent by Publisher on Adwords inventory for the Advertiser. Advertiser acknowledges and agrees that Publisher charges a management fee in addition to the cost of the Adwords inventory;
7.2.7 Publisher shall use reasonable endeavours to ensure that the proportion of the Price which is to be used for the purchase of Adwords ("Adwords Purchase Price") shall be spread reasonably evenly on Adwords inventory over the Advertising Period. To the extent that the actual amount paid for Adwords by Publisher to Google in any month is less than the Adwords Purchase Price paid by Advertiser for such month, the parties agree that the balance shall be rolled over to the following month. Any balance remaining at the end of the Advertising Period shall be payable by the Publisher to the Advertiser within 30 days of the end of the Advertising Period after deduction of any outstanding management fees; and
7.2.8 Advertiser acknowledges that it may provide email feedback to Publisher and Google about Publisher's purchase of Adwords inventory on behalf of Advertiser.

(b) The Copy will not be, and will not contain links to content that is obscene, blasphemous, libellous, defamatory, offensive, indecent, inaccurate or misleading as to price, promoting the use of illegal substances or illegal activities, pornographic, racist, spam mail, fraud, pyramid schemes, contrary to public policy or related to investment opportunities or advice not permitted by law or in any other way and will not contravene any applicable laws, rules, regulations or advertising codes (including, without limitation, all codes of practice issued by the Advertising Standards Authority or the Committee of Advertising Practice) and will comply with the Specification;
(c) The Advertiser is the legal and beneficial owner of all intellectual property, privacy and proprietary rights in the Copy or it has the right to use and to permit the Publisher and if applicable, the Third Party to use and exploit the same in accordance with these Conditions and the Contract;

9.2 Any Advertiser who cancels part of a series booking will be charged at the rate set out on the Publisher's rate card from time to time for the Advertising Services performed by the Publisher, and for any Advertising Services in respect of which the cancellation is received by the Publisher after the relevant Cancellation Date.

If the Advertiser reasonably believes in good faith that the Impression Report contains a manifest error (which must be an inaccuracy of at least 10%), the Advertiser shall notify the Publisher forthwith and the parties shall use reasonable endeavours to identify and correct the inaccuracy (if any) and agree in good faith the number of actual Impressions created during the period covered by the Impression Report. The Advertiser shall pay the Publisher the Minimum Price in accordance with the Publisher's standard payment terms, as amended from time to time at Publisher's sole discretion, and following agreement of the number of Impression, the Advertiser shall pay the Publisher the balance of the amount due in relation to the agreed number of Impressions created in that period, plus Value Added Tax.

In particular, the Publisher shall be entitled to require payment in advance by the Advertiser or payment earlier than provided for at paragraph 10.1 or 10.3 above in the event that, inter alia, the result of a credit check on the Advertiser is unsatisfactory to the Publisher or the Advertiser repeatedly makes late payments in breach of the provisions of this paragraph 10.
10.5 If the Advertiser fails to pay sums due to the Publisher by the due date for payment, the Publisher reserves the right to suspend the provision of the Advertising Services and to charge interest up to the date of actual payment after, as well as before, judgement at the rate under the late payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act (the "Act") together with fixed sum compensation under the Act to accrue on a daily basis, compounded quarterly. The Advertiser will be liable for all expenses (including legal expenses) incurred by the Publisher in collecting overdue amounts.
11.1 Although every effort is made to avoid errors, should they occur the Advertiser acknowledges and accepts that Publisher will not be liable to the Advertiser for breach of Contract or in any other manner whatsoever where:

11.1.2 The Copy has only been submitted verbally to the Publisher; or
11.1.3 The Copy is not supplied until after the Copy Deadline and/or the Publisher has exercised its rights under paragraph 3.3 or 4.5 above; or
11.1.4 The error concerns the colour reproduction of the Advertisement and the Advertiser has failed to supply a colour proof with the Copy in a form which is reasonably satisfactory to the Publisher,
AND in such circumstances, the Advertiser remains liable in full for the Price.
11.2 The Publisher's aggregate liability to the Advertiser pursuant to any Contract (including these Conditions), whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty or otherwise shall (except in relation to death or personal injury resulting from its negligence) be limited to the total Price payable by the Advertiser to the Publisher under that Contract in relation to the Advertising Services. The Publisher shall not be liable to the Advertiser for any special, indirect or consequential loss including, without limitation, economic loss or any loss of profit, loss of revenue, loss of contracts, loss of business, loss of goodwill, loss of reputation or like loss.
11.3 If the Publisher is liable to the Advertiser pursuant to these Conditions for an error of the Publisher, the Publisher shall (unless otherwise agreed in writing) either re-perform the Advertising Services in such manner and during such period as may be agreed between the parties or, if applicable, reimburse a percentage of the Price equal to the percentage loss of response which can, in the Publisher's reasonable opinion, be attributed to that error. For the avoidance of doubt, the Publisher's liability to the Advertiser for such error shall be limited in accordance with paragraph 11.2.
12.1 Each Contract shall be governed by these Conditions (together with the Offer), which represent the entire agreement between the parties in relation to the subject matter and supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties. In the event of any conflict between these Conditions and any terms or conditions incorporated in any form of offer, quotation or other correspondence or documentation submitted by the Advertiser, these Conditions shall prevail.
11.2 The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any provision of these Conditions shall not affect the continuing validity, legality and enforceability of the remainder of these Conditions.
11.3 Nothing in these Conditions shall be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture of any kind between the parties or as constituting either party the agent or employee of the other for any purpose whatsoever and neither party shall have the authority or power to bind the other party or to contract in the name of or create a liability against the other party in any way or for any purpose.
11.4 The Advertiser shall not be entitled to assign the Contract without the prior written consent of the Publisher. The Publisher shall be entitled to sub-contract the whole or any part of its obligations under the Contract and to assign the Contract.
11.5 A failure or delay by the Publisher to exercising any right or remedy under the Contract shall not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedy.
11.6 Confirmation of the Advertiser's acceptance of these terms shall be deemed valid acceptance of the terms of this Agreement. Any variation to the terms of this Agreement shall be agreed in writing between the parties, save that the parties specifically agree that a variation to terms set out in the Offer may be agreed by both parties by email.
11.7 The Contract shall be governed by the laws of England and each party submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts save that the Publisher reserves the right to take action against the Advertiser in any other jurisdiction.
