- Apr 1, 2011It was just a better league Craig and like a lot of goalies who are GREAT as
amateurs or even in the minors who just don't cut it at that level. You have
that one year and as Morey points out you have weaknesses, NHL shooters
figure them out feast on them and your confidence plummets. Remember Jim
Carey, Steve Penny, and Blaine Lacher? And typically he played on a good
team who slowed that process down by giving up fewer chances than a weak
team would on him. Also note that the Bruins obviously saw flaws as they
dealt him not Gilles Gilbert fully knowing that Cheevers was 38. Prior to
that, he played on a great Houston team in the WHA which also fig leafed a
lot of holes. Remember they also had NHL journeymen like Wayne Rutledge and
Don MacLeod look great for them..He fit the profile of most WHA goalies" who
had been good at this level or that, were good there but just could not cut
it in the NHL at least as starters over time. I remember at the merger when
a WHA GM quipped to the Hockey News, "they are letting me protect two
goalies and I don't even have one that I want to protect." The WHA was a
good league but it just did not have the depth of shooters that the NHL did.
As more than one ex WHA guy who played in both leagues told me over the
years "the WHA was a good league but don't let anyone ever try to tell you
that it was the NHL." There was a difference and Grahame found that out fast
like a lot of guys did, they had those one or two bad flaws that in the dub
they could survive with and even flourish but in the NHL were fatal over
time. Remember guys like Ron Ward and Danny Lawson who were marginal NHLers
at best lit things up especially in the early years and they would not have
been even CLOSE to the best shooters on an NHL team..you also had more goods
big power forwards in the NHL who could poke in that fat rebound and be a
pain in the butt, screening a guy all night, I can't think of the WHA's
answer to Gary Dornhoefer who would always be there in the goalies lap., you
really got crowded in the NHL. Remember "too small" was reason that lot of
guys ended up in the WHA and a lot of the big guys just lacked mobility.
This is not to say that there were not big league players there, there were
and some GOOD ones but just not enough and those guys were the ones that
were keyed on. Even a good team may have tow liens of guys that were decent
enough but after that.it got WEAK. And on the lesser teams you might have
two guys not two lines..so again you just were not challenged on the same
percentage of shots. And keep in mind I do not mean they couldn't shoot
hard. A lot of guys can but lack accuracy and others can shoot ok but are
not smart enough to tune in and work the weaknesses, I see that in the
minors all of the time I am sitting there and saying to myself "SHOOT HIGH"
on the two foot tall goalie even after he has been fried a couple of times
up top, but they just don't get it..or in other cases simply can't. You
don't see that in the NHL, they bear down and find that weakness, home in,
and attack it like a shark does a nice piece of meat. Look at the Rangers
Cap series of couple of years back there was just one little hole that
Lundqvust was giving up for some reason that series, maybe he was hurt or
whatever but they homed in on it and FED on it. This is one of the many
things that separate an NHL hockey player from a guy that can't quite cut I
which if we want to be honest a good deal of the WHA was. I loved that
league and it was not a minor league as NHL types often disparaged it as
being but nor was it the NHL.

Thai culture, which has long had historically influence from Indian culture, has longstanding tradition of massage and wellness techniques. In fact, Thai massage is a centuries old practice that is based on stimulating the flow of life force through the body via sib sen, or energy lines. Consequently there are a number of opportunities in Thailand to visit a day spa in order to experience Thai massage or check yourself into a world-famous spa and wellness retreat that can design a treatment package, including meals or fasting and holistic or ayurvedic treatments, especially for you.
In fact the range of options is uncountable. Foot massage and Thai massage parlors, offering their services for as little as 100 baht per hour are found on the streets of Bangkok and Chiang Mai, as well as along the beaches of Phuket, Samui, and Pattaya.
Each of these destinations also features more inclusive spas, which fuse Thai massage with western techniques to provide oil massages with natural herbs, such as lemongrass, in an environment filled with ornate décor and impeccable service.
Luxury spas and wellness retreats in Phuket, Hua Hin, and Koh Phangan were established for both health and pampering, and range from prohibitively expensive and exclusive retreats designed for global celebrities to beachside resorts that give yoga instruction overlooking the sea and communal beachside dinners.

We called ahead with a take out order and while we still had to wait for our order, the food was very good so it was worth the wait. We will return.
So good!!!! Make a stop here. Fresh, tasty, authentic and lovely ambiance w great view of the greenery outside.
don't bother. the food was tasteless, poorly prepared. there are better places to go for Vietnamese food.
This may well be the only white tablecloth Vietnamese restaurant in CO. It was the only one with tablecloths in Evergreen for a long time.

We started with the pork rolls which were incredible AND gluten free. As were many menu options.

This place has a great location, nice building, and beautiful views. However, service was sub-par and we really didn't like anything we ordered. We prefer Coal-Mine Dragon down the road for Asian dining.
This restaurant offers an extensive menu for Vietnamese cuisine. All four of us loved it. The food was delicious for every course. You can sit by windows for a view or enjoy a quiet booth area. Service was very good. It can be hard to find. It is up a hill off main street. There is a parking lot for...
Elegant food, beautifully prepared. Consistent quality. I love love the Crispy Rolls! Saigon Landing has been a landmark in Evergreen for many years. Unique to our community. I highly recommend visiting.
My friend loves their noodle bowl, I don't eat there often but it is usually good when I do. I used to go to book club meetings there.
I don't know why it took me a few months to getting around to eating at Saigon Landing. It is terrific!
If you are with at least four people, I highly recommend the 'Evergreen Sampler' appetizer. So delicious!
I've been there at least 5 times, and the food is always perfect. I can't recall the first couple dishes I had,...

Lee County records the largest property value drop in state
LEE COUNTY - The precipitous drop in property values won't be quite as bad as feared, Lee County Property Appraiser Ken Wilkinson said Tuesday.
Taxable value in Lee County dropped by 22.71 percent, slightly less than Wilkinson first predicted a month ago. Wilkinson said it's still the biggest drop in the state.
The amount of property taxes collected by government entities closely tracks with the taxable value unless the tax rates are raised. If the tax rate remains the same, Lee County can expect to see property tax revenue drop by 22 percent.
That's exactly what Interim County Manager Karen Hawes has recommended. County commissioners got her recommendation Tuesday.
"We want folks to understand last year was a $67 million decrease," said Assistant County Manager Pete Winton. "And we've already cut $63 million out of the budget this year. With the 5 percent model we're looking at roughly another $20 million."
That would mean $150 million carved off the county operating budget in two years.
Chairman Ray Judah hadn't yet seen Hawes' recommendation, but was glad to hear about it.
"Certainly the board won't be interested in raising the millage (rate)," he said.
As for the less than feared reduction in values, Judah said it will help commissioners continue to provide the critical services that are expected.
The 5 percent additional reduction county department heads have been working toward would remove $20 million from the budget. The new value numbers put $8 million back.
"It's certainly good news," Judah said.
The county's been prepping for the reductions for years by building reserves and trimming more than 200 jobs while holding more than 150 more open.
That, Judah said, made the county ready to deal with the current round of cuts.
"I've been assured there are no layoffs and no reductions in critical levels of service," Judah said.
That doesn't mean library hours might not be reduced or park or road maintenance take place less often.
"For the most part people will see the services they've come to expect," Judah said.
Wilkinson said the new numbers will go to Tallahassee for certification as early as Tuesday.
The better-than-expected numbers don't mean an uptick in the housing market from what was expected a month ago. It just means Wilkinson was conservative.
"In this case it was sort of a worst-case scenario," he said.
Except that in two east Lee County fire districts, Lehigh Acres and Tice, it got worse.
Tice was expecting a drop of 21.13 percent based on the estimates each county's elected Property Appraiser must release by June 1. The preliminary values for 2009, so called because the tax roll must be certified in Tallahassee, put the drop at 21.44 percent.
In Lehigh the drop was estimated to be 46.92 percent. Some firefighters have already been laid off. The fire board has halted action on more layoffs, but was considering eliminating as many as half the districts 120 or-so firefighters and EMT's.
The final numbers put the drop in Lehigh at 48.68 percent.
"It wasn't enough of a worst case," Wilkinson said. "In Tice and Lehigh it just kept going down."
The news is better — or less bad — down south. In San Carlos Park, the fire district was girding for a 29.76 percent drop, second highest among the 17 independent districts in the county. At 26.97 percent the district still sees the second-largest drop.
In the city of Bonita Springs, the drop was estimated at 20.07 percent. Instead, the final number says 16.58 percent.
Wilkinson was glad to hear the county recommendation. In the past he's been critical of local governments who kept their tax rates the same and claimed to be holding the line on taxes as rising values pumped more money into government coffers.
"Fantastic," he said. "I hope the rest follow suit."
TRIM notices - Truth in Millage statements informing property owners of their pending tax bill amounts - will be sent out in August.

I put together a very old (60-70 years old) elaborate quilt top and handquilted it for a friend. Her grandmother had made it 65 years ago. When I did the label, I put "To: (my friend's name) and made by" (her grandmother's name). She found an old photo of her grandmother and we put that on the label, with the grandmother's name, date of birth and date of death. I put my name as the one completing it and the date....Karen

I like to have a sewing project in progress so last year I started a queen size quilt in a nine patch star pattern. My late husband had been a Marine, so I choose a gold color for the stars and rich red for the background. The center of each star was a square patterned in gold and black. I worked away for months, lined it and quilted the entire thing.
When I finally finished and put it on the bed, oh how gaudy it was. For a little variety I had even varied the stars with some purple and some blue around the border. I looked at it for weeks and polled my friends on it. Their comments were very guarded but nobody really liked it, and as the days went by, I liked it less and less myself. I finally rolled it up and put it away on a high shelf in the garage.
I don't think it has any future at all, but if you happen to have an elephant and are going to have it lead a circus parade and want a covering for it, this quilt would be perfect!
Send us your funny stories! terrye@...?subject=funny storiesAsk Kaye....
A Reader Asks: I want to use a bamboo bat in the quilt I'm currently making. Would it be best to pre-shrink the bat, since it says on the label that it shrinks 2-3%? If some of the fabrics in the quilt have not been pre-shrunk, will there be a problem? All fabrics are cotton.
Kaye answers: I have not used any bamboo bats yet. I would suggest that you contact the manufacturer for suggestions.
I do not pre-wash my fabrics any more. Cottons used to shrink or the colors would run. That doesn't seem to happen any more. The only fabrics I would pre-test by wetting a small piece are the very darks. If the color bleeds, I would pre-wash the whole piece of fabric.
Muslin might still shrink a little, so I would pre-wash any muslins.

Christmas Holiday Facts
Along the shores of the Mississippi River, especially the Louisiana coast line, bonfires are lit on Christmas Eve. Their purpose is to guide the way for Father Christmas.
A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens is the world's most read Christmas story.
Irving Berlin wrote the wonderful carol, "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas" in 1942, specifically for the move Holiday Inn starring Bing Crosby.
Those who kiss under the mistletoe have the promise of happiness and good luck in the following year.
The world's most famous Christmas carol is "Silent Night".
The song, "Jingle Bells" was originally named, "One Horse Open Sleigh" and was written for Thanksgiving not Christmas.
The custom of leaving cookies for Santa originated in Germany, where trees were decorated with fruit, flowers and sweets. After leaving gifts for the good children, Santa would help himself to the goodies on the tree

General Manager InterviewAccepted OfferNegative ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at LA Fitness (Harrisburg, PA) in September 2014.
Very pedestrian, no guidelines almost like an informal interview. The second and third interviews were a little more normal but seemed a little gimmicky just to establish some sort of hierarchy. Second and third interviews both took place via video chat, the second happened literally 4 hours after the first interview. Some of the process seemed very unorganized and kind of fly by the seat of your pants.

there was none, basically they offered a good wage, but once your hired thats when it all changes.
General Manager InterviewAccepted OfferNegative ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at LA Fitness (Sarasota, FL) in August 2012.
I was thrown into the position with fear of losing my job if I refused. I received no training either, to be successful
Interview Questions
- There weren't any questions asked that are of importance or even relevant to the position. 1 Answer
General Manager InterviewDeclined Offer
I applied online. I interviewed at LA Fitness.
Simply apply - You get to speak to someone. They tell you about the job. But its Not really for General Manager. Its for sales. The Job description said General Manager, which i have 5+ manager experience in sales. Overall very misleading. Why should someone start from the bottom when they have experience already in management?
Interview Questions
- Nothing really. Don't expect to be asked hard questions. They more explain the job and try to get you to buy into it to do sales door to door, and etc. Answer Question
Reasons for Declining
I applied for manager but they wanted me as sales. I have 5+ years for management in sales. Do i really want to downgrade?

I got this bag as a graduation present, and while it is beautiful, it badly stains all my chinos and light-colored shirts. Seems they sacrificed functionality for the sake of appearance.

Perfect Briefcase
By TravelingTeacher
from Rochester, NY
Best Uses
The perfect briefcase-- leather and workmanship is of the very highest quality, and the design is just right for everyday use-- slim and light enough to be easy to carry, but able to hold quite a bit when necessary (including a standard-sized laptop). Enough compartments to keep things organized, but not so many as to get in the way.Very, very pleased.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Outstanding bag
By JimMcBoulder
from Louisville, CO
I spent quite a bit of time looking for a bag that looked professional, but also would fit in a business/casual setting. I wanted a bag that would improve its look and function as it aged.I could not be happier with my Tusting Messenger Brief. It is large enough to hold my folio and some files with room to spare. The inside back pocket is large enough to hold my Mac Book Pro (15") when necessary. When I exchange my MacBook for an iPad I have plenty of room to spare.I am 5'8" and have not had any issues with the length of the shoulder strap. In addition, the few accidental scratches on the bag have rubbed out easily with my fingertips; I have not had any of the leather stain transfer onto my clothes.It's a great bag and it something that I hope I can pass to my son one day.
Messenger Brief
By SNET
I have been looking for the perfect size brief for traveling on the train and carrying my laptop. I found it. The quality is superb. Size is not to large or too small. Very pleased.
Short lifespan
By ldr4
Loved it when I first got it but then the lining started to tear and the buttons that hold the flap down fell off almost every time I opened the briefcase. Eventually they were lost. Looks great but doesn't hold up. I tried to upload photos of the problems but was unable to upload them to this review.
Merchant response: We appreciate your review of our Cambridge Messenger Brief. We apologize that it was not what you expected. Your concerns have been forwarded to our product development team for review. Customer satisfaction is our #1 Priority, and we offer a 100% guarantee.

Lovely Bag
By Bookseller
from Dallas, TX
This bag is beautiful. It is exactly what I was expecting. I gave this bag to my husband for Christmas and he loves it. The only thing I was disappointed by, was the box in which it arrived. A beautiful thing like this deserves to be packed in a box more suitable for gift wrapping and presentation.
A terrific Xmas gift
By josdh
from New Castle, DE
My wife purchased this bag for me for Christmas. So far I love it. It is very handsome, lightweight, and yet surprisingly room inside. Lots of sleeves and pockets to put things in. I teach at a university and this bag makes me feel very professorial.
Tusting Messenger Brief

Great product. The quality is amazing. The size is a bit smaller than I thought but overall a great brief.

MTV has renewed its hit reality series "Catfish: The TV Show" for a second season, the network announced Wednesday.
The show, based on the 2010 documentary of the same name, follows Nev Schulman and filmmaker Max Joseph as they travel across the country meeting young people who are attempting to engage in romantic relationships online -- and documenting the surprises they sometimes encounter after meeting the person on the other end of the computer.
"'Catfish: The TV Show' has truly captured the zeitgeist of the digital dating age," said Dave Sirulnick, Executive Vice President, MTV Multiplatform. "The show has resonated with our audience by portraying the real life journeys of individuals trying to navigate the highs and lows of online dating -– an experience our viewers can relate to. We are thrilled to bring the show back for a second season, and look forward to the fascinating stories that only Nev and Max can uncover."
The series became MTV's highest-rated 11 p.m. premiere in history on its Nov. 12 debut, and MTV notes that "Catfish" has spent six consecutive weeks as cable's number one Monday series in the 12-34 demographic.
"Catfish: The TV Show" airs Mondays at 11 p.m. EST on MTV.
Bristol Palin told "Inside Edition" she's a fan of "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo." "I'm a Honey Boo Boo fan, definitely," she told Inside Edition by way of New York Daily News. "More power to her for having such a successful show."
Anderson Cooper had Honey Boo Boo and her mother June on his talk show and even has a cutout of the pint-sized reality star in his office.
Rosie O'Donnell said she wants to meet the Thompson/Shannon family and buy them a house. "I think that little girl, Honey Boo Boo, she is like Shirley Temple," O'Donnell told People about the reality star. "She has a presence and an intellect that goes way beyond her years."
Tina Fey told The Huffington Post that she and the "30 Rock" writers watch "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" at work. "[E]very day at lunch our writers take a little break and watch a TV show and most times it's 'Honey Boo Boo' or 'Breaking Amish' ..." she said.
Britney Spears and Ke$ha tweeted at each other, both referencing terms from Honey Boo Boo's "Toddlers & Tiaras" appearance.
Snooki took to Twitter to express her love of Honey Boo Boo. "I honestly love the family honey boo boo has!" she tweeted.
Sammi, Deena and Jenni of "Jersey Shore" told The Huffington Post they watch "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo." "I would love to meet her. I've been a fan of hers since 'Toddlers & Tiaras.' I just think that her family is amazing," Jenni told HuffPost TV. "The mom is like the ultimate mom and they have a lifestyle like ours -- it's completely different, only some people get it, but at the end of the day, we're all a huge, loving family and same with her family. Her mother is all about her kids and just loves them and even though they're different and act crazy like we do, they only have love for the world. So I wish them the best and I hope they're very successful because they deserve it. They are very entertaining."

More evidence is emerging that interventions by pharmacists can have a profound beneficial effect on patient outcomes.
The latest example comes from Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy, which released the results of a study May 17 showing that more than two-thirds of patients with hepatitis C "achieved sustained virologic response or cure after completing newer 'triple therapy' treatment" backed up by a regimen of care and oversight by pharmacists, according to a Drug Store News report from senior editor Michael Johnsen.
Why the pharmacist interventions? They help improve patient compliance with the complicated drug therapy, which involves the administration of two newer protease inhibitors to prevent the HCV virus from reproducing, in combination with peginterferon and ribavirin. According to Johnsen, that powerful medicinal cocktail "significantly increased the cure rate and cut treatment time in half" for the 406 HCV patients in the study who received triple therapy with either telaprevir or boceprevir.
Kerr Drug has introduced a new prescription-synchronization service, the retail pharmacy chain said Monday.
Long Island University's Brooklyn, N.Y., campus has given C.O. Bigelow Apothecaries owner Ian Ginsberg its Distinguished Alumnus Award, the university said.
More than two-thirds of patients with hepatitis C achieved sustained virologic response or cure after completing newer "triple therapy" treatment, according to a Walgreens Specialty Pharmacy study released Friday.
"Numerous" physicians in Pennsylvania are supporting a bill that would expand the range of immunizations that pharmacists can provide, a state pharmacy group said Thursday.
The National Association of Specialty Pharmacy has launched an online resource with clinical and business-related content in more than 20 therapeutic categories, the group said Thursday.
The National Consumers League and its partners on Thursday announced the awardees of the second annual Script Your Future Medication Adherence Team Challenge for health profession students.
The University of Maryland School of Pharmacy is piloting a program that will allow state employees to receive medication therapy management services, the university announced.
More than 300 community pharmacists helped educate their legislators over crucial small business issues as part of the NCPA's 2013 Legislative and Government Affairs conference. All told, the pharmacists conducted more than 500 meetings with congressional offices.
There is a reason why our industry is poised to play a larger role in health reform. Five years ago or more, the PBMs had Washington's ear. But today, pharmacy is doing a much better job of telling its story. Counting NACDS' recent RX Impact day, retail pharmacy has conducted more than 900 meetings with legislators in the past eight weeks or so.
The Specialty Pharmacy Certification Board will begin certifying specialty pharmacists who pass a comprehensive exam in October. The exam is designed to cover the entire specialty pharmacy process, including intake, clinical management, fulfillment and outcomes.
The National Association of Specialty Pharmacy, which oversees the SPCB, is bringing to bear some real advocacy and structure to the highly fragmented specialty pharmacy marketplace. The DSN Group, including its specialty pharmacy publication of the same name Specialty Pharmacy, applauds these efforts.
The National Community Pharmacists Association on Thursday announced it will host its NCPA Ownership Workshop from May 17 to 19 at the Seattle Airport Marriott.
The Specialty Pharmacy Certification Board has appointed Terri Smith Moore as the education director, the group said.
Bipartisan legislation that would let pharmacists devote more time to Medicare beneficiaries and less to adjudicating claims with pharmacy benefit management firms was introduced in the U.S. Senate and won the backing of the National Community Pharmacists Association earlier this week.
One of the difficulties that federal regulators ran into during the nationwide scandal surrounding the New England Compounding Center — the Massachusetts-based pharmacy blamed for a nationwide fungal meningitis epidemic that has sickened hundreds and killed dozens — was the issue of when such pharmacies cross the line from compounding to manufacturing.
More than 300 independent community pharmacists from across the country met in Washington, D.C., at the Hyatt Regency on Capitol Hill Wednesday for the 2013 National Community Pharmacists Association Conference on Legislation and Government Affairs.
A pharmacist in Queens has received accolades for giving out vitamins to children whose families can't afford them.
Amid rapid growth over the last few years, Amber Pharmacy is more than doubling the size of its headquarters.
In case you were wondering, Google won't replace the community pharmacist as a trusted source for women's health information, after all.
The National Community Pharmacists Association is expecting its highest turnout in two years for the association's 2013 Legislative and Government Affairs conference being held Tuesday and Wednesday.
PrescribeWellness on Tuesday announced a partnership with the American Pharmacy Alliance to provide independent retail pharmacies with a low-cost, easy-to-implement patient engagement solution.
The outline of an exam that will be used to certify pharmacists working in the specialty channel has received approval from the Specialty Pharmacy Certification Board, the group said.
Florida's state legislature approved a bill last week that will allow pharmacists to substitute biosimilars for brand name biotech drugs.
Retail pharmacies, drug makers and law enforcement have a variety of methods used to fight organized crime, and the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General has drawn up a list of best practices that pharmacies can use to keep stores, drugs, staff and customers safe.
Kinney Drugs, with its almost-100 locations located primarily in upstate New York, is the latest pharmacy to capitalize on the robust offerings available through in-store health kiosks. Because it isn't only about taking that random blood pressure check anymore.
No, the in-store health kiosks going into stores today are designed to augment outcomes-based health care. For example, through the use of "smart cards," PharmaSmart helps track historical health metrics across its trademarked Blood Pressure Tracker web portal.
The National Community Pharmacists Association on Thursday urged Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie to sign two bills into law that the association asserts will "protect patient pharmacy choice."

No, don't run away. This might well be a new topic.
Looking at several members' stats - and including my own - the shorter the game the lower the rating. For example, my Bullet rating is now more than 300 points lower than my turn-based. Can any chess.com staffers shed any light on if this is indeed generally so and why it is?
More time you have the better you play?
But since ratings reflect, primarily, not how well you play but the results you get - and your opponents are under the same time control - why the discrepancy?
I find something similar with FICS my standard rating is higher than my blitz, my blitz higher than my lightning.
With correspondence chess u have more options so people tend to play better over all. Some take advantage of those options more then others. Live chess and over the board chess tends to reply more on what u remember concerning patterns and general knowledge more so then the correspondence does. I find that the longer time i have the better i tend to play providing i am focused that is.
The results are a reflection of how well you are playing, so the decrepency has more to do with how much effort you put in and how much time pressure you are dealing with along with how well they deal with the pressure. More time generally means you can visualise more moves ahead and hopefully more accurate as well. Shorter time frame means less time to calculate accurately and thus more mistakes r made. The more somone understands the positions they are playing the faster then can calculate their moves as well. Knowledge really does help when playing faster.
