The New York Islanders were active on the first day of free agency when they signed Brad Boyes, Matt Carkner, and Eric Boulton, but the team has lost a couple of players that Islanders fans have grown to know over the past NHL seasons. (Clydeorama/Flickr)
While P.A Parenteau signed on with the Colorado Avalanche, the Winnipeg Jets and Al Montoya came to terms on a one year deal worth $601,000. Montoya's departure might have upset some fans that grew accustomed to the goalie as he put up impressive numbers in 21 games during the Isles' 2010-2011 NHL season. However, injury and inconsistency plagued Montoya during the 2011-2012 NHL season as he performed to the tune of a 9-11-5 record, 3.11 GAA, and .893 Save Percentage.
The Islanders are just a day away from joining 29 other NHL clubs in the festivities of July 1st. To a lot of people, it is just another summer day to be enjoyed outside. For many others, it's a day meant for excitement or anguish which steals one's complete attention for TSN, Twitter and any other fast paced media outlet that will have updates on the opening of NHL Free Agency.
The Isles appear set to be parting ways with Mark Eaton, Steve Staios, Milan Jurcina and perhaps their most important free agent, PA Parenteau. The latter has served as an important member on the team's top line for the past two seasons and is coming off his biggest year, likely to command a long term contract and a significant pay raise on the open market.
The previously mentioned defenseman will not receive any grief for signing elsewhere. In fact, many Islanders fans will probably be overjoyed that they will have the opportunity to see aging veterans replaced by young, upcoming talent from within the organization.
The Philadelphia Flyers have taken a page out of the Los Angeles Kings book and hired one of it's former members of the coaching staff to coach in their system.
Philadelphia has hired former Kings head coach Terry Murray to be the head coach of the Adirondack Phantoms of the AHL.
Murray started out last season in his fourth year as head coach of the Kings, but was fired on December 12 when the eventual Stanley Cup champions were 13-12-4 and in 12th place in the Western Conference.
This afternoon the New York Islanders announced that Bridgeport Sound Tigers head coach, Brent Thompson, would become the Islanders new assistant coach. Coach Thompson, like many others, began his coaching career after years of playing the game himself. Selected 34th overall by the LA Kings in the 1989 entry-level draft, Thompson ('Tommer', his ice name) played 121 games in the NHL with the Kings and Winnipeg Jets organizations. He also played for six different AHL teams in his 14 years as a player before beginning his career as a coach.
While Islanders fans become increasingly impatient with the teams' rebuilding, Sound Tigers fans await the annual summer, team reconstruction.
233 goals were scored by the Bridgeport Sound Tigers last season. Not a team record and not even close to an AHL record, but enough to win the Northeast Division title. Of the 49 skaters that laced them up last year, six of them accounted for 104 (or roughly 45%) of that total. None of them will return for next year.
Winning a title obviously requires good goaltending, and the tender tandem of Kevin Poulin and Anders Nilsson was exceptional. Each of them earned Goaltender Of The Month recognition from the AHL during the year. One of them will not return next season.
It almost seems like it's been the same story heading into the off-season year after year now; the Isles lack a top-six forward and top-four defenseman that could help make them a competitive team that could be fighting for a playoff spot.
They've tried free agency and have been shot down by guys like Paul Martin. They tried the trade market with James Wisniewski, who ended up being a major disappointment while wearing orange and blue. They even tried that route once more, gaining the negotating rights to Christian Ehrhoff. He didn't want to sign, and I think after seeing how he played under his very luxurious contract, most Isles fans probably don't care.
Although both trades were under different circumstances, they shared one glaring similarity. Not one of them involved any actual players leaving the Island. Ehrhoff's rights were acquired for a fourth round draft pick, and Wisniewski came on board in exchange for a 2011 second round pick and conditional 2012 fifth round pick. Despite the early signs of GM Garth Snow developing a pattern, there is reason to believe that could change heading into this summer's off-season.
To paraphrase an old adage; 'An opinion is like a proctologists playground, everyone has one … and they all stink.'
With the NHL season ending and the draft just two weeks away, anyone who follows the sport of hockey will read or hear many opinions offered on what their favorite teams' needs are, who to draft and which free agents should be pursued. It's just fun to spend other peoples' money.
So once Mr. Wang is done spending his folding money on NHL players' contracts, let me offer my opinion on what should he should do with the change left in his pocket.
An opinion is only as good as the assumptions it is built on. So here are some of the things I will assume (with 'ass-u-me' being another obvious rectal reference), before I offer my opinions. This summers' Islanders training camp will be a very competitive one at all positions. There will be a battle for back-up goalie between Anders Nilsson and Kevin Poulin. The loser of this battle will become the Sound Tigers top tender for the 2012-13 season and prove himself a winner. (Kevin Poulin/Photo: Pope Steve XXVII)
Before I begin talking Islanders hockey, I owe my readers, as well as the other bloggers that write for this site, an apology. For those of you who don't know, the bloggers here at TCL Isles follow a schedule that I create. I also arrange my blogs to follow in that schedule as well, and I continue to remind our staff to do their best to keep up with it while trying to allow some freedome since it's the summer.
I have been out of sync with managing the site for about the past two weeks. Without getting into things, I can promise that I am now fully back on track and apologize for my absence.Fortunately, there hasn't been an over abundance of stories to report.
Sadly, John Tavares lost to Pekka Rinne in the EA Sports voting bracket for the cover of NHL 2013. He made it all the way to the semi-finals but fell short to the Predators net-minder. Maybe next year will be a different story. But Islanders fans certainly made a point to the rest of the league by showing that their voice can be loud when they have a reason to be heard.
I can pretty much talk about hockey 365 days a year, and do. When a friend asks me a question about the AHL or the Sound Tigers, they will get an answer. It took me a while to realize that because they asked me something about the game I love, did not mean they shared my enthusiasm. I first noticed it in the spring when a friend for years asked me to explain what a 'developmental team' was. Listening to my response as I explained the roll the AHL was intended to play in the development of players for the NHL, his eyes began to glaze over when I approached the V-260, V-320 (veteran of 260 or 320 professional games) grey areas. An "urgent call" took him from me, and the next day I was 'un-friended' on Facebook. That is when I decided it would best to write about the game. While it is still boring to many, at least the number of 'Happy Birthday' wishes I get from Facebook friends won't diminish.
One of the most frequently asked questions I get is "How much do the players get paid in the AHL?" Were I a man of few words, the answer for this 2011-12 season would be a short "The league minimum is $39,000 the highest paid is getting $6,500,000." This is true though misleading, and as I am not a man of few words and don't want to mislead you, let me bore you from bottom to top.
I learned to love the game of hockey early in life. The first magazine I subscribed to was the 'Hockey' magazine, which became mine after my dad had read it. On the cover of the first edition was Maurice 'The Rocket' Richard, my first sports hero. Life was easier then. When you went to the store for cereal you had eleven to choose from; three were the hot cereals 'Wheatena', 'Farina' and 'Rolled Oats', none were instant. Cold varieties roared like tigers, were 'shot from guns' or would 'snap, crackle and pop' for your listening pleasure. Sugar Pops had yet to be given their more nutritionally acceptable name of 'Corn Pops' and nobody apologized for it.

Melancholia is a 2011 Speculative Fiction film written and directed by Lars von Trier. It mainly focuses on the relationship between the two sisters Justine and Claire, played by Kirsten Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg. The movie is divided into two parts, the first about Justine's wedding, the second about the upcoming fly-by of the rogue planet Melancholia that's drifting through the solar system. The focus lies on how the characters relate to the events surrounding them, from the mundane event of a wedding to the possibility of a planetary collision.Like Von Trier's previous movie, Melancholia was surrounded by some consternation at the Cannes Film Festival. Von Trier's jokes about Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany resulted in him being declared a persona non grata. Dunst's performance was praised, however, and she walked away with the Best Actress Award.

Pat Conroy's first book in 14 years, "South of Broad," comes out Aug. 11. Here's a sneek peek at Gina Webb's review, which appears Sunday in Living & Arts:
Now, in his first book in 14 years, the one-and-only prince of tides himself returns to his old haunts, this time promising—in a dazzling prologue — that "everything I now reveal to you will be Cha>rleston-shaped and Charleston-governed and sometimes even Charleston-ruined."
Ahh, ruined! That's the Pat Conroy we know and love. And it's no idle threat. "South of Broad" is a lavish, no-holds-barred performance by a writer who, in full possession of his strengths and flaws, explodes on stage with another bravura, irresistibly poignant attempt to resurrect his old demons — suicide, mental illness, child abuse, and the rage and pain left in their wake — and to save the characters who are menaced by them.
But for many Conroy fans, meeting the cast of "South of Broad" will feel like a family reunion, because the gang's all here: The orphaned mountain siblings; the Hollywood star; the suicidal brother; the suicidal wife; the drunken, abusive father; the beautiful, distant mother — and, of course, the gentlemanly, articulate narrator of the whole complicated, heart-breaking, bigger-than-life mess.
August 4th, 2009
2:19 pm
I remember when Conroy's last book, Beach Music, came out, there was a line wrapped twice around Oxford Books in Buckhead when he did a signing there. Sigh. I still miss Oxford Books.

PLAYERS: Kyrie Irving
TEAMS: Cleveland Cavaliers
TEAMS: Cleveland Cavaliers
Cavaliers guard Kyrie Irving is determined to stay positive despite a broken finger that will keep him off the court for a month. Irving broke his left index finger on Saturday against Dallas and he played the next night in Philadelphia before an MRI revealed a crack in the bone. Irving could keep playing with the injury, but he would risk doing more damage and be sidelined even longer. It's the latest medical setback for the 20-year-old Irving, the NBA's reigning rookie of the year. He has missed time with a foot injury, sprained shoulder, concussion and broken hand in the past two years. Irving's index and middle fingers were taped together as he shot jumpers during practice while his teammates, who have lost six straight games, prepared for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

Matthew Birt says:
Yamaha won't offer Cal Crutchlow full factory support if he remains with its satellite Tech 3 squad in 2013.
The British rider has told Tech 3 boss Herve Poncharal that the perfect scenario for his future would be to remain with the French-based satellite squad, but receive a full factory spec YZR-M1.
For that to happen though would necessitate a major shift...

Is that US, Aussie or HK Dollars? Either way your currency is no good here against the Great British Pound. Cal is going to Ducati mate. To partner Redding, who's gonna take Rossi's seat who's gonna take his seat back from Ben who's going to WSB to partner Sykes or Hayden. Dovi to partner Smith or Esparagaro (depending if HP can slap his contract lawyers around with those giant French hands of his)

I'm pretty sure that Ben Spies got at least some factory support while at Tech 3. I seem to remember pictures at Indianaoplis of his Tech 3 biek running factory exhausts.
Either way, it would seem a bit short sighted of Yamaha to risk losing Cal to another factory if he would stay with what is an easily achievable technical job for Yamaha (and not much more expensive either). Honda have already set the precedent with Simoncelli so why not? If Honda build their 'production racer' for next year Yamaha may be happy to have a few more bikes on the grid and an extra factory spec bikes wouldn't harm them.
Remember the rules will be changed to 'one bike per rider' next year so effectively Yamaha have two spare factory bikes available compared to this year surely?

according to mcn paper version romour says thatValentino is being lined up to replace spies, the best possible scenario would be to give tech 3 more factory support and that would make Yamaha a lot stronger than Honda
I can't see anywhere else other than WSB for the Spiesmesiter. There's no seat for him outside of the factory ride which will belong to an Italian next year. Tech 3 will take on 1 or 2 rookies depending which Italian that is. Make no bananas about it, Rossi wants that bike. It's his last chance for a swansong on a bike he helped develop for 8 years. Now go on my son, get yourself down to the Royal Bengal and order a Dhansak and 2 large Cobras (that have been in the deep freeze). Cal will do well on the Duke. In the meantime, making himself millions. I want to see Bradl and Marquez as the fresh HRC riders. It's gonna be Epic.
Yamaha USA has all the aces in Spies staying in MotoGP he gets 3 wins it changes everything.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (AP) -- Indiana State University is offering students who enroll in the fall a four-year "graduation guarantee" if they follow certain responsibilities.
Eligible students must sign a contract. If they live up to their responsibilities as outlined, they'll be able to complete a bachelor's degree in four years. If not, they'll be able to take their remaining courses tuition-free.
ISU President Dan Bradley said tells the Tribune-Star that "the longer you take to get out of college, the less chance you have of finishing." He also says the cost of going to school an extra year is close to $20,000.
The Terre Haute school's current four-year graduation rate is about 25 percent, but officials hope the new Sycamore Graduation Guarantee boosts that. ISU expects about 2,500 new freshmen next fall.
For more information on the graduation guarantee, go to www.indstate.edu.

"BP's ceaseless efforts to promote itself as an environmentally responsible energy producer took a serious blow yesterday after a US congressional committee said 'a mountain of evidence' showed the company's cost-cutting on maintenance had led to a large oil spill in Alaska. The US government said it was 'highly likely' to fine BP over the leaks."
BP's 'environmentally responsible' image takes a hit.

Russ McDonald and Jack A. Vaughn argue that we should take the play for what it is- a farce. McDonald in particular notes that "farce" and "Shakespeare" need not be mutually exclusive terms. Vaughn argues that although the play should be classified as a farce, it is not a "simple" one because Aegeon's framing story gives the play depth. J. Dennis Huston and Robert Ornstein stop short of classifying the playas an outand-out farce. Huston refers to the playas "nearly unmitigated farce," tempering his classification by noting the elements of tragedy (Aegeon's story) and romance (Aegeon's separation from Aemilia and his other son). Ornstein argues that Shakespeare adheres almost exclusively to Plautus's play even though he begins The Comedy of Errors with Aegeon's tragic tale.
Stephen Greenblatt, Ralph Berry, Maurice Charney, and David Bevington all propose taking an evaluation of the play's genre beyond farce. Greenblatt, Charney, and...

By James Slater: Audley Harrison still believes. The 40-year-old who captured Olympic glory all those years ago (2000 in case youve forgotten), still believes in his T.V pulling power, and the athletic southpaw who at one time looked a sure thing for the world title, still believes in his fighting skills - recently telling Boxrec that, if he gets his mind right, he can beat a Klitschko!
More realistically for Harrison, is the possibility of a fight against one of Britains up-and-coming heavyweight hopes; David Price and Tyson Fury especially. Though neither unbeaten fighter is in any way rushing to test themselves against Harrison, A-Force says both guys need him if they are to attract the big, crossover T.V audience.
Harrison, who faces fellow former Prizefighter Ali Adams, 13-3-1(5) on Saturday night (Harrison actually won Prizefighter, back in 2009; Adams lost his opening fight, to Matt Skelton, in 2010), says he wants a fight with Fury or Price next..
I dont need to [sell the fight to Price]. Im an Olympic gold medallist, David Price is an Olympic bronze medallist, Harrison said as quoted by ESPN.co.uk. Against Ali Adams, people want to see what Ive got left. Thats why its not on T.V. Its like my punishment for the Haye fight. If I win this fight, theres gonna be opportunities to go back to where Im supposed to be.
Just where Harrison, 27-5(20) thinks he is supposed to be is anyones guess. However, a fight between he and Fury and/or Price would likely attract some interest; even if neither fight would generate the numbers Harrison thinks they would.
They [Price and Fury] need to sell, he continued. Ive just come off Strictly Come Dancing, the highest-rated show on T.V, so youre going to get three or four million watching the fight. They want to make money, and they want people to start watching their fights.
Fury would no doubt say that fans are already watching his fights: his bouts on terrestrial channel, Channel 5 pulling in great numbers. As for Price, he enjoys good exposure on SKY Sports. Bottom line: does anyone (the Ali Adamss of the world aside, and no disrespect) really need Harrison today?
Talented, gifted even, Harrison has allowed the boat to sail on his own career. Its a shame, but no-one is to blame but Audley himself. What would a Price or a Fury gain from KOing him here in 2012? Actually, 30-year-old Adams, trained by Dereck Chisoras main man Don Charles, might just hammer the final nail in Harrisons once-promising career himself.

Shattered Hopes
Shattered Hopes
Josh Ruebner
Verso, 2013
Josh Ruebner is the national advocacy director of the U.S. Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation and at one point also worked for Tikkun, coordinating our attempts to present members of Congress with a peace and reconciliation perspective on the Middle East. In assessing Obama's failure to broker Israeli-Palestinian peace, he cites not only Obama's unwillingness to go to the mat with the Israel lobby over the issue of fully freezing Israeli settlements, and not only the scattershot, frenetic, lurching quality of Obama's policy initiatives, but also the fact that Obama's "approach relied solely on providing Israel with carrots" and never with "the proverbial stick." He concludes that the more Israel deliberately frustrated and humiliated U.S. efforts to broker Israeli-Palestinian peace, the more rewards it was offered by the United States as a result. Ruebner's book is a stinging indictment of the absurdity of the Obama administration's failed peace process.

The billion-dollar question: Are they travel pals or is romance brewing for Bethenny Frankel?
Frankel was seen Thursday enjoying a holiday in Saint-Tropez with longtime confidant and hedge-fund mogul Warren Lichtenstein.
Frankel, 42, looked cool and chic on her trip in platforms, a short skirt and tank top. She walked side by side with Lichtenstein, a billionaire from New York, who is the chairman and CEO of Steel Partners Holdings L.P.

When Bethenny Frankel filed for divorce in December, she vowed to herself – and to fans – that she and Jason Hoppy would keep their split amicable.
But it didn't take long for their situation to devolve. Now, months later, the duo, who are parents to daughter Bryn, 3, are still living together in the same N.Y.C. apartment – even as they continue to hash out their differences in court.
"My living situation is very, very stressful," Frankel, 41, tells PEOPLE in the new issue, on stands Friday. "I don't think it's very healthy for anyone involved. It's very upsetting. You just have to endure it."

In the middle of their heated divorce battle, Bethenny Frankel and soon-to-be ex-husband Jason Hoppy both attended their daughter Bryn's third birthday party on Saturday.
Held at Dylan's Candy Bar on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, Hoppy arrived to the soiree with his parents, Carol and Bob Hoppy, and according to an onlooker, "Bryn was very happy to see them."
While Hoppy and Frankel were both in attendance, "they did not interact," adds the source.

While Bethenny Frankel and Jason Hoppy aren't scheduled to return to divorce court for a few more weeks, the reality-star-turned-talk-show-host has been giving a lot of thought to how far apart she and her ex have drifted.
At the time of the split, Frankel released a statement in which she said that she and Hoppy hoped to "amicably co-parent" their daughter Bryn, who turns 3 next month.
Now, in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE, Frankel says she can see that's going to be a challenge.
"I really did think it would be amicable. I absolutely did," she says. "I wrote that entire statement myself. And every single word, I believed to be true."

Bethenny Frankel and her estranged husband Jason Hoppy met Friday for a matrimonial appearance before a judge in New York – but seemed to do most of their communicating outside the courtroom.
The pair arrived separately to the downtown Manhattan court early for a scheduled 10:30 a.m. appearance. Frankel, 42, wore black stilettos and a charcoal dress. Hoppy, 41, wore a gray suit and, notably, continued to wear the wedding band he's kept on throughout their separation.
News of their split broke in January. The couple wed in 2010 and have a 2½-year-old daughter, Bryn.
Accompanied by their legal teams (and in Jason's case, a pal as well), the pair sat in the halls outside the courtroom. While Bethenny sat with her lawyer on a sofa, Jason sat around the corner on a bench, out of his wife's sight but only feet away from her.
Jason appeared relaxed and smiling. He chatted with his legal team, and when his attorney stepped away, he sat with a pal and passed the time making conversation, frequently smiling.

Bethenny Frankel and daughter Bryn enjoyed some mommy and me time in Beverly Hills on Saturday.
Frankel looked happy as the duo played at the Beverly Canon Gardens outside the Montage Hotel, an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "Bethenny was all smiles and was hugging and playing with her daughter."
Dressed casually like her mom, Bryn wore a pink sweater and jeans – which she accessorized with sparkly pink glasses.
"Everyone in the park was stopping and saying hi to Bryn," the source adds.

It's business as usual for Bethenny Frankel.
The reality TV star stepped out for dinner at Indochine in New York on Monday night.
Dressed all in black, the "very chic"-looking Skinnygirl mogul dined at a table in the center of the restaurant with a gentleman around 8 p.m.
But although the evening "didn't look romantic," an onlooker tells PEOPLE, Frankel, who recently separated from husband Jason Hoppy, "did look refreshed and happy to be out and about."

All's not well at home for Bethenny Frankel, who, after splitting with husband Jason Hoppy, is now dealing with her beloved dog Cookie's ailing health.
"My first baby [Cookie] is limping," the star shared with her Twitter followers Wednesday. "She's 12 & it makes me sad & gives me anxiety."
Often seen on Bethenny Ever After, Cookie has been by Frankel's side for most of her reality TV career, but her most recent health woe is the latest in a series of complications for the canine.

Bethenny Frankel and Jason Hoppy are not seeing eye to eye as they begin divorce proceedings – most notably because both sides reportedly want primary custody of daughter Bryn.
Hoppy has responded to Frankel's divorce petition by demanding from the reality-TV star almost exactly the same things she is demanding from him, TMZ.com reports.
Both are seeking primary custody of Bryn, who will be 3 in May, as well as child support from their ex, along with money for other expenses, including insurance.

HERO Fellowship Program
The Health Equity Research Opportunity (HERO) Fellowship was designed by a working group consisting of representatives from Maya Angelou Center for Health Equity, Wake Forest School of Medicine and the surrounding Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) such as North Carolina Agriculture and Technical State University, Johnson C. Smith, Winston-Salem State University, and Livingstone College.
The overall goal of the fellowship is to provide underrepresented junior faculty with the experience and skills that will ignite their research pursuits focused on health disparities. Because these institutions have an emphasis on teaching some of our brightest and innovative students, the goal is to further inspire teaching faculty to encourage their students to pursue a career in research focused on health disparities.
The fellowship is a one year training program to provide professional advancement courses during onsite sessions and online training opportunities which emphasize research concepts, public policy, service learning activities, and social consciousness related to health equity. The fellowship also includes a research experience in which fellows work collaboratively with a researcher from Wake Forest School of Medicine and partnering organizations.

a different kinda of drool - pythons with animals
TheNicePython: I'm SO jealous of that cat Mike's holding(I've forgot what animal it was)... It seems so nice, soft and cosy to sleep like that
Yes, Mike's lucky too... I think I want five cats and then name them after the Pythons...But five cats may be too many? :)
Haha! Aren't those the names of the Marx brothers? If not, sorry for this useless comment :)
yeah they sure are! you see... groucho the cat got his name because he talks nonstop, walk a bit strange and was trying his best to charm my older catlady without any sucess. BUT harpo is the love of my life when it comes to the marx brothers. so he needs to be honored as well. and then you have chico, the only person who could mouth back to groucho. so he needs to be honored. and then poor zeppo who always had to be the "normal" one in the movies, boring roles with romance, so he needs to be honored for playing those boring parts giving the others something to be crazy around. a bit like when dear graham was playing the only sain person in a whole movie you know.
Ah yes, I see. I only saw one Marx Brothers movie (can't remember the name of it, but it had something to do with horse racing, and there was one part where they all put motor oil on their faces to blend in with a crowd of black people. Ah, good old fashioned family racism :D), but i have to say that from what I've read about them and their movies, Chico and Zeppo are my faves. It would be great if you got cats all named after them, but as Kaiti said you would need A LOT of room :)
that would be a day at the races you saw. people say its their last truely great movie. but I have just seen 2 that came after that one.
and about the racism... well, maybe the scriptwriters were, but the boys themselfs were german jews (born in america by german parents) so they were not.
but well, if that is the only one youve seen you never even seen zeppo, he was not in that one. but here you have a scene with him and groucho from animal crackers: http://youtu.be/-J6OEEbZ9Ko
A Day at the Races, I have not seen that one, but my fav Marx Bros would have to be Animal Crackers.
It depends how big an apartment you have... Five cats could almost need a whole house.
Here's a picture of Gray with a cute little doggie woggie (Who is not little by any stretch of the imagination it looks like...)
I know! ever since I first since I first saw it I have been wondering what monster-race it is? but since for example this pic is taken from ground-level it makes the dog look even bigger. but it seems to be a kind dog, and its obvious that graham LOVES that dog. :)
I know right? I don't think it was one if his dogs though, cause I think he and David only had two beagles or something. He must be a dog person like me then (even though I only have two kitties) :)
yeah, I read about the beagles as well somewhere. but yeah, if they had dogs, and they did, gray must have been a dog-person. :) I prefer cats, not that I dont like dogs, just that I like cats better. Ive never wanted a dog of my own, but I cant live without cats
They had beagles!!? Well, that was new information to me... :)
So you're a dog person, eh? Me too, I've got a german shepherd.
(btw, the dog in the pic is a bloodhound. though I'm not very sure is it really its name in English..)
Oh yeah! I kept thinking it was a bloodhound, but then I thought "no, looks like something else actually." Thank you for that JG :)
And yes, they had two beagles named Towser and Harry. I for one like big dogs though, but only if they're calm :)
No problem ;)
Yes, I love big dogs too and it seems to me that usually bigger dogs are more friendlier and calmer(when properly trained)than small dogs. But of course each dog has its own personality.
True, true. I think if I ever get a dog, it'll either be a German Shepherd or a Greyhound. I'll get them as puppies so I can train them myself :)
Sounds good. :) Hope you'll be lucky to get a healthy and good-brained pup, if/when you're getting one. ;)
JG beat me too it. I was too late. I would love to have a bloodhound. Anyone remember the name of the one in The Aristocats? Wasn't Lafayette or Napoleon or something like that?
Actually it's a baby gazelle (I couldn't remember exactly what kind of animal it was either, so I had to look it up). Here is the link where I originally found the photo: http://palinstravels.co.uk/photogallery.php?id=1166&from=photoindex-31-12.

Country singer LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian haven't been hiding their relationship -- and while Eddie's ex blasts him to the press, Rimes' estranged husband has gotten far away from the drama.
According to Fox News, LeAnn's estranged husband Dean Sheremet has packed up and moved out of the couple's Nashville mansion and to New York City. "Dean is moving on, looking for work and creating a fresh start in New York City," an insider dished to the network. "He's excited to be in New York and plans to take advantage of his connections over the years to focus on his career."
The source added, "LeAnn has clearly moved on with Eddie in California and it was time for Dean to make a major change of his own."
Dean and LeAnn tied the knot in 2002. The couple announced their separation in July.
After months of scrutiny, Eddie Cibrian and LeAnn Rimes have gone public with their relationship -- and Eddie's estranged wife Brandi Glanville no longer sees him as the man she married.
"He's just somebody I don't know," Brandi admitted to People magazine. "I don't understand -- you think you know one thing and you wake up and it's all been a lie."
Eddie and LeAnn were snapped enjoying a round of golf last week. Two days later, on Saturday, the lovers attended a Kings of Leon concert in L.A.
Glanville originally defended Eddie when rumors surfaced in March that Cibrian, 36, and Rimes, 26, were having an affair. Now, Brandi confessed that she has trouble explaining to the couple's sons -- Mason, 6, and Jake, 2 -- where their father has been. "They know that daddy is at work all the time," she says. "That's what I tell them. When he does come home it is surprising for them and they are very happy."
Glanville told the magazine her reaction to Eddie's recent behavior has been disbelief. "I'm just like, 'You know what? You're not the man I married.'"
Brandi also confirms that she has spoken with LeAnn recently, and told her, "He's all yours."
Glanville confirms that she hopes to file divorce papers shortly, ending her eight-year marriage to the "CSI: Miami" star.
Four months ago, LeAnn Rimes was accused of having an affair with co-star Eddie Cibrian, but sources tell People magazine that isn't the only reason her marriage to Dean Sheremet fell apart.
The couple tied the knot when LeAnn was 19 and Dean was 20. A source tells People their breakup was bound to happen. "I don't think it's unusual considering how young they were, and the business they're in."
Later in their marriage, Rimes branched out from her singing career into acting and spent more in Los Angeles. Sheremet's songwriting endeavors kept him in Nashville. A pal tells People, "Maybe there was less of an effort to meet up in those moments where they typically would have met up."
It's rumored LeAnn has been spending time with the newly-separated Eddie Cibrian. The two were said to be having an affair during the filming of "Northern Lights," a Lifetime TV movie. They denied it. Rimes and Sheremet are separated, but it's unclear when divorce papers will be filled. The pal says, "There's still a lot of love and respect between the two of them. But sometimes love might not be enough."
LeAnn Rimes and her husband, Dean Sheremet, have decided to split!
"LeAnn and her husband have been separated for quite some time now, but they continue to try and work through their relationship," a Rimes pal dished to People magazine.
Four months ago, the country singer was accused of having an affair with "Northern Lights" co-star Eddie Cibrian. Earlier this week, Eddie's wife Brandi Glanville revealed that she and the actor were splitting. Eddie and LeAnn were snapped going for a motorcycle ride this past weekend.
When accusations of an affair surfaced, Cibrian denied being unfaithful. Rimes has refused to comment on her relationship with the actor.
LeAnn and Dean tied the knot in 2002, when the singer was 19.
After months of cheating rumors and speculation, Eddie Cibrian's model wife Brandi Glanville has decided to leave her actor hubby.
"Eddie Cibrian's wife has decided to leave him," Jill Martin from Us Weekly dishes to "Extra." Brandi is reportedly calling it quits after being stunned to learn that her husband never ended his alleged affair with LeAnn Rimes.
Brandi, who last month accused Rimes of "stalking" Eddie, told the magazine, "Eddie and LeAnn deserve each other." Martin adds, "Brandi says she's only thinking of her two sons and wants to do what's best for them."
Whispers of an affair surfaced after Rimes, 26, and Cibrian, 35, filmed the Lifetime movie "Northern Lights." The twosome were snapped in the bar at a Lakers game in May, and last they were spotted going for a chopper ride!
Cibrian has also been accused of cheating with Scheana Marie Jancan, a 24-year-old model. LeAnn is married to dancer Dean Sheremet, but Martin says it isn't confirmed yet whether or not Rimes will leave him. "Source says that LeAnn, even amidst all these rumors, is still trying to work on her marriage."
Eddie and Brandi tied the knot in 2001. They have two sons -- Mason, 6, and Jake, 2.
UPDATE: Cibrian's reps have released a statement regarding the couple's split. It reads: "Apparently the press wishes to continue to play out Eddie Cibrian's domestic situation publicly with an unfair flair of tabloid fervor. Eddie is a devoted and loving father first and foremost and the speed bump he and Brandi are experiencing needs to be worked out privately for everyone's benefit."
After LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian were accused of an affair by Us Weekly, Eddie cut ties with his former co-star. Now his wife Brandi Glanville tells the magazine LeAnn won't leave her hubby alone!
In March, a security camera appeared to have captured the actors holding hands and kissing during a dinner, and the two reportedly met for a "three-hour tryst" at the Malibu Beach Inn.
"LeAnn is a stalker," Glanville tells Us Weekly. "She refuses to leave us alone -- it is shameful and scary. People are going to say it takes two to tango and I get that, but at some point LeAnn needs to stop asking him to dance."
Cibrian changed his phone number to end Rimes' "constant texting and calling." Glanville claims two weeks later Rimes sought out Cibrian at an L.A. Lakers game (May 17).
The model says she's "not a scorned wife" and she's "fighting" for what she has. "LeAnn is so desperate for fame she has left her self-respect in the gutter and doesn't care who she hurts to get what she wants," Glanville states. "She's hurting my family and messing with the wrong mom."
Cibrian and Glanville have been married since 2001 and have two children.
UPDATE: LeAnn's rep has issued a statement to "Extra" denying Brandi's claims:
"These comments are incredibly defamatory, and while there are always two sides to every story, LeAnn continues to remain above the fray and chooses not to play this out in the press."
Was Eddie Cibrian spotted in another act of PDA?!
Don't judge Eddie too fast. Hands down, it was a public display of affection... with his wife of 7 years! The former "Ugly Betty" babe was snapped hand-in-hand with wife Brandi at Miami International Airport.
Cibrian was recently rumored to be having an affair with his "Northern Lights" co-star LeAnn Rimes, but Eddie very publicly shot that rumor down.
When rumors of an affair with LeAnn Rimes hit the web, Eddie Cibrian comforted his wife by telling her it was all a publicity stunt.
A source revealed to Us Weekly, "Eddie told his wife that it was a publicity stunt for the Lifetime movie."
Last week, Us reported Rimes and Cibrian had begun an affair after they filmed the Lifetime movie "Northern Lights." In a statement, Eddie denied any rumors and confirmed he and LeAnn are just friends.
Cibrian and model Brandi Glanville wed in 2001 and have two sons, Mason 5, and Jake 23 months.

During the 19th century, the forces of modernity challenged traditional faith and drove a wedge between liberal and conservative believers. Bohemian immigrant Isaac Mayer Wise embraced change and established Reform Judaism in America while his opponents adhered to Old World traditions. In New York, Presbyterian biblical scholar Charles Briggs sought to wed his evangelical faith with modern biblical scholarship, leading to his trial for heresy. In the 1925 Scopes evolution trial, Christian fundamentalist William Jennings Bryan faced off against freethinker Clarence Darrow in a battle between scientific and religious truth.

How bad actors threaten NFL Inc.
With 27 pro football players arrested just since the Super Bowl, the league is staring at a huge image problem.
Though he has taken a hard line on player misbehavior, the public seems to perceive increasingly that NFL players don't feel bound by the rules that govern the rest of society. As CBS News noted, 27 players have been arrested just since the last Super Bowl in February. Although that represents only about 1% of NFL players, these incidents can be pretty lurid and attract plenty of media attention.
For instance, Cleveland Browns rookie Ausar Walcott allegedly punched a man in the head outside a New Jersey club and faces attempted murder charges. Adam "Pacman" Jones of the Cincinnati Bengals faces assault charges after confronting a woman at a nightclub. Whether these incidents will have any long-term consequences for the NFL remains to be seen. But for the NFL, which earned a reported $9.5 billion in revenue last year, players' misdeeds add to some other issues that could blunt its momentum.
Its 32 teams expect modest growth this year because of the lingering uncertainty over the economy, according to a January report from Bloomberg News. The league is also trying to encourage more fans to attend games in person, since ticket revenue has been flat for years.
The NFL's financial fortunes, however, will improve in 2014, when the extension for its TV rights kicks in and boosts TV revenue to an average $7 billion annually, from $5.1 billion currently. NFL game telecasts continually attract huge audiences.
Then there are the concussion lawsuits, some 200 of them from 4,300 players who accuse the league of not doing enough to protect them from the health effects of head injuries. Some experts say the litigation could wind up costing billions. The NFL repeatedly has denied wrongdoing in connection with these cases, but the images of suffering ex-players with neurological problems don't help it in the court of public opinion.
The Hernandez case will fade from people's memory eventually. But many parents, even those who love the game, are having misgivings about letting their children play football because of the concussion dangers and the poor role models that some players provide. Addressing these misgivings is vital for the sport's long-term survival.

I like football, but find myself getting more and more disgusted with the conduct of a lot of the players, and execs, of the NFL
They'll bounce back though. We have a short memory in America for bad behavior any more, as long as we're entertained!
I am very patriotic, but a lot of things are not of the same nature that I said my Pledge of Allegiance for.
Welcome to the United States of Entertainment!!!
Lets see now. You take a kid, fresh out of college and hand him a check for forty million dollars. Or 30, or 50, what's the difference? Then you expect him, at the ripe old age of 22 or 23 to behave like a responsible adult. What could possibly go wrong with that? Especially when he has grown up watching players and ex players get away with every conceivable crime, form drug possession to first degree murder.
Then you have the vilification of Tebow, simply because he is of good moral character and you have developed a recipe for thugs and goons to join the pro ranks, get the big bucks and start their criminal empire, absolutely convinced they are above the law because OJ, Kobe and others have proven it to be so. I place about 50% of the blame for this on the media who treat these animals like gods and treat a decent person like Tebow like a pariah, and the other 50% on the NFL for giving these animals these huge checks and expecting them to react rationally.

MSI GeForce GTX 780 Gaming review -
DX11: Company of Heroes 2
DX11: Company of Heroes 2
On this page we benchmark Company of Heroes 2 which is a real-time strategy game developed by Relic Entertainment and published by Sega for the Microsoft Windows platform. It is the sequel to the critically acclaimed 2006 game Company of Heroes. As with the original Company of Heroes, the game will be set in World War II but will focus on the Eastern Front. Company of Heroes 2 runs on Relic Entertainment's proprietary Essence 3.0 game engine, which THQ claims allowed the developer to bring "new technological advancements" to the game. In January 2013, Sega acquired Relic Entertainment and along with it the Company of Heroes intellectual property from THQ. The game was released on June 25, 2013 in North America and Europe.
The game is built on Relic's proprietary Essence 3.0 engine, which showcases new improvements compared to Relic's previous games. One such improvement is the new line-of-sight technology, TrueSight, which aims to better emulate troop visibility in real combat. In contrast to traditional unit visibility, TrueSight more accurately represents a unit's visibility range based on environmental conditions and type of unit. Essence 3.0 also incorporates an innovative weather-simulating technology known as ColdTech and destructible environments.
For the first test above we'll show you the GTX 780 in several image quality modes that you can select in-game. You'll find that the game is more CPU greedy rather then GPU greedy. Hence the results in-between the image quality modes are not very significant.
For future reference, we'll be using the HIGHER quality mode. The game was just released, so all I had time for was to test three different GTX 780 cards. In future reviews this benchmark is going to build and expand with more cards of course.

Cork LifterBy: Amy Jacquin
Opening a bottle of wine can be aggravating. But maybe not if you use the $10 Cork Lifter. It promises simple and effortless cork removal.
Opening a bottle of wine is second nature to Keller Ford of River Ridge Winery in Commerce, but he's never tried the $10 Cork Lifter. And, as with any new gadget, it takes a couple of minutes to get used to it. Keller struggles with the foil cutter for a few seconds, before he figures out you have to slightly push it open in order to get it to fit over the rim. Then the cutter works well.
You have to remove the cap, in order to insert the air cartridge. The Cork Lifer uses compressed air to help you lift the cork out of the bottle. One cartridge removes about 30 corks... Replacements are free, BUT you have to pay $5 shipping and handling.
Keller reads directions while Amy Jacquin tests the Cork Lifter on the first bottle of wine. "Without touching the canister end, use both hands to push the Cork Lifter unit down over the top of your bottle," Keller reads. "Place one hand around the bottom of the wine bottle. Place the other hand around the Cork Lifter and quickly, light and gentle, press the cap on the top of the unit. Without effort, the Cork Lifter unit will pop off the bottle as the cork is removed. Wow!"
Keller tries bottle number two. This time the foil come right off. And he follows directions carefully. "It works," Keller nods his head. "But there was a little spillage with this one. I guess I pushed too much air into the bottle." He opens a third and fourth bottle of River Ridge wine, with pretty consistent results. It does take a little time to get used to exactly how much air to add to remove the cork, without causing the wine to bubble out. And directions strictly warn to not use the Cork Lifter on plastic corks or champagne. "This ring is kind of hard to press down and remove the cork," adds Keller. "But it's not that bad."
It works, and we can see where it may help an older person, or someone with arthritis in their hands. However, we do question how long the plastic gadget will hold-up. After our four bottles, the needle was already a little off-center. So overall, the $10 Cork Lifter tops out at a B.

Steady but mostly light snowfall was forecast for northern Utah on Tuesday, continuing a mild wintry trend that began this past weekend.
The National Weather Service expected just an inch or two of the white stuff, with the exception of the highest mountain elevations where heavier snowfall was possible. High temperatures were forecast to range into the low to mid-30s, with overnight lows well below freezing.
Icy road surfaces were believed to have been factors in more than half a dozen crashes along the Interstate 15 corridor between Salt Lake and Utah counties Monday morning. One of the crashes, on I-15 near American Fork, involved a semi-trailer rig and a pickup truck; one man was seriously injured.
Southern Utahns expected nary a snowflake, but temperatures were to take a definite turn downward with highs on Tuesday in the low to mid-50s and overnight readings in the low 30s.
The Utah Avalanche Center rated the mountains of Logan, Salt Lake and Davis counties, along with the Uintas, at "moderate" risk for dangerous snowslides. The risk grade for the rest of the state's mountains was deemed "low."
Salt Lake City's high on Tuesday was to be 39, up from Monday's forecast for 33 degrees; Ogden looked for 38 and 33 degrees, respectively; Wendover 39 and 37; Duchesne 35 and 33; Cedar City 46 and 42; St. George 57 and 53; and Moab 39 and 37 degrees.
