Little too shimmery as highlighter
Having three colors together in 1 package was what attracted me to buy this palette in the first place, however the light pink and shimmery pink gold color is a little too shimmery for me. Works well as eyeshadow though. Would recommend putting powder over the highlighter so that it is not too shimmery.

By: Macmillan, Ross, and John Hagan.
Using data from the National Youth Survey, these researchers find that students from two-parent families have significantly higher educational attainment and significantly stronger commitment towards education than children from other family structures. Children from two-parent families are also less likely to experience violent adolescent victimization, which negatively affects childrenÃs educational outcomes.

Bluetooth has delivered a new toolset called the Bluetooth Developer Studio to speed up development of Internet of Things (IoT) apps and products.Bluetooth this week announced a no-cost software-based development kit that helps developers learn Bluetooth technology quickly and bring products to market faster. The Bluetooth Developer Studio will ensure that building for the Internet of things (IoT) is simple, consistent and fast, while still providing security, reliability, control and convenience. It enables developers to focus on building the products and applications that will give consumers the best experience in their home, on their phones and everywhere else Bluetooth is used.

Thanks and I look forward to shooting with you!

Ideal Fathers
Ideal Fathers is a band that shouldn't work. You shouldn't be able to mix edgy Gang of Four-esque guitar adventurism and funky rhythms with the thorniness and snarling vocals of early Dead Kennedys and get anything but an unholy mess. Theirs is a collection of sonic elements that seem to pull at each other in destructive ways, yet through a clever legerdemain of musical invention, the Fathers (due at 3 Kings Tavern on Saturday, August 2) have somehow come up with a new shading of dance punk that is thrillingly aggressive but with an expansiveness of tone that suggests the more reflective side of songwriting. On stage, the bandmembers perform like one of the great hardcore acts of old, with singer Jesse Hunsaker alternately playing hellish provocateur and tortured artist. Snidely clever yet smart song titles and a genuinely creative use of sound render them ideal paragons of the new post-punk.

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire -11/07/11)- Aurcana Corporation ("Aurcana" or the "Company") (TSX-V: AUN.V - News)(OTCQX: AUNFF.PK - News)(PINK SHEETS: AUNFF) is pleased to report its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011. The summary of the selected financial information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and the related management's discussion and analysis dated November 4, 2011 together referred to as the "Financial Statements", which have been filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and the Company's website (http://www.aurcana.com). All figures are in US dollars unless otherwise noted.
The most significant highlights for the 3rd quarter ending September 30, 2011 were:
-- 224% increase in earnings from mining operations in Q3, 2011, $6.8
million compared to $2.1 million in Q3, 2010. 415% increase in YTD
earnings from mining operations of $17.5 million in 2011 compared to
$3.4 million in 2010.
-- 217% increase in net income, $3.8 million in Q3, 2011 compared to $1.2
million in Q3, 2010. YTD net income up $6.8 million, to $6.1 million in
2011 compared to a loss of $0.7 million in 2010.
-- Revenues increased 68% to $12.1 million in Q3, 2011 from $7.2 million in
Q3, 2010. YTD revenues increased 114%, to $35.3 million in 2011 from
$16.5 million in 2010.
-- Operating cash flow before movements in working capital items, to $6.2
million in Q3 (2010 loss of 0.2 million).
-- Silver production of 244,243 ounces (235,981 ounces sold), based on just
80 days of mill production; year-to-date silver production increased 26%
to 742,026 ounces compared to 587,057 ounces in 2010.
-- Shafter Silver Mine in Texas continues to be on schedule for completion
in May, 2012 with production commencing immediately thereafter.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the Company generated revenues from the sale of 1.690 tonnes of copper concentrate (2010 - 3,658 tonnes); 2,913 tonnes of zinc concentrate (2010 - 2,065 tonnes); 736 tonnes of Lead Concentrate (2010: nil); and 235,981 ounces of silver (2010 - 238,722 ounces) for total net revenues of $12.1 million (2010 - $7.2 million).
The average price for sales of copper, silver, zinc and lead during the period were Cu - $3.98 (2010: $3.29) per pound; Ag - $37.24 (2010: $18.98) per ounce; Zn $0.98 (2010: $0.91) per pound and Pb $1.03 (2010: nil).
The Company had earnings from mining operations of $6.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 (2010: $2.1 million); income before taxes of $4.3 million (2010: $1.2 million); a net income of $3.8 million (2010: $1.2 million). For the six months ended September 30, 2011 the Company had earnings from mining operations to $17.5 million (2010: $3.4 million); income before taxes to $7.6 million (2010: a loss of $0.7 million); a net income of $6.1 million (2010: a loss of $0.7 million).
The increase in earnings from operations was mainly related to increased operating efficiencies and the increase in the selling prices of the metals produced by the Company.
La Negra Mine Production Highlights
-- 119,772 mill feed tonnes of ore processed during the current quarter,
17% (20,562) from NI-43-101 Measured and Indicated Resources and 83%
(99,210) from new discoveries or non-compliant resources. All new

5,212 tonnes (5,339 tonnes sold).
-- As anticipated, contained copper production was down to 362 tonnes in Q3
2011 compared to 492 tonnes in Q3 2010 due to variable ore zones.
Aurcana experienced a significant improvement in realized contained
copper grades rising to 23% in Q3 2011 from 13% in Q3 2010 due to the
effect of the new lead circuit.
-- Lead circuit continues to perform well, producing 455 tonnes of
contained lead which helped improve overall recoveries and increase the

Also, in the first nine months of 2011 drilling crews have completed 10,613 metres of diamond drilling at La Negra.

A team of Brown and RISD students is working to complete construction of a modular solar home by late April. That's when they dismantle it, ship it to France, then reassemble it on the grounds of the Versailles Palace this summer for competition with 19 other international teams in the 2014 Solar Decathlon Europe. Brown President Christina Paxson visited the worksite Wednesday.
PROVIDENCE, R.I. [Brown University] — On Wednesday, March 19, Brown President Christina Paxson stopped by the Providence warehouse where Techstyle Haus, the Brown/RISD/Ehrfurt entrant in the 2014 Solar Decathlon Europe, is taking shape.
The Solar Decathlon Europe takes place this summer on the grounds of the Palace of Versailles in France. Twenty collegiate teams from all over the world will compete in 10 events to see who can build the most innovative, efficient and livable solar house. Student team members Gareth Rose, Isabel Lubin, Helen Bergstrom and others showed Paxson the progress they've made since starting construction in mid-February.
How we'll do it
The Solar Decathlon isn't just a matter of designing and building a solar house. It requires funding, corporate support, materials supply, communications — and the whole thing needs to be dismantled, shipped to France, and reassembled.The students are assembling the house's mechanical core — kitchen, bathroom, and all plumbing and HVAC systems. Modular sections of the base on which the house will sit are nearly complete. Hardwood for the floor — salvaged from an old gymnasium in Providence — will be assembled soon in modular sections.
The project will move outside in a few weeks, where the house's steel ribs will be assembled and its textile shell attached. Only a few metal shops in the country could make the curved steel for the ribs. One of those shops, located in Chicago, happens to employ a Brown graduate.
"I called him up and it took about five minutes to convince him to donate the tubes," Rose told Paxson. "They should be en route now."
Construction is scheduled to be completed in late April. After that, the students will dismantle the house, ship it all to France, and then reassemble the house at Versailles for the competition.
"I don't want to take you from your work," Paxson told the students after a 20-minute tour of the shop. "I just wanted to come out and see it. I'm very jealous. I love to build things. If I had time I'd be down here all the time."

The Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom
Alexander LevineAlexander Levine
Nigel Short
Tenebrae's latest disc on Signum sees their return to the repertoire of Russian composer Alexander Levine. The Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom is Levine's most significant large-scale religious work to date. Inspired by the humility and humanity of the murdered Russian priest (and friend of Levine) Fr. Alexander Men and composed over a three-month period of
spiritual immersion, research and contemplation (similar to that described by his great forebears Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov), the work traces a continuous spiritual growth towards the central point of the Liturgy – the Holy Communion.
What people are saying
There are many very lovely sounds throughout this work, and those who appreciate Orthodox church music will find much to enjoy here. It makes ideal late-night listening, but it will also repay close study. The performance is spectacularly successful. Short paces the score superbly and his singers are with him at every turn." International Record Review, May 2013
"Written after a powerful spiritual experience, Alexander Levine's 2006 setting of Russian Orthodox liturgy appears old and new at the same time. Soaring,ecstatic, and gorgeously performed." BBC Music Magazine, September 2013
"This is singing of a very high order. They bring a quiet beauty of tone to the more reflective moments, which carries over into other parts of the work and their contribution to the sheer radiance of the performance is significant … Levine manages to sustain an intensity of feeling and radiance which comes over superbly in this performance." March 2013, Robert Hugill
"Those whose interest in Orthodox music was awakened by John Tavener may well enjoy this further and deeper exploration and all who appreciate fine choral singing will applaud Nigel Short and Tenebrae." Cross Rhythms, 8 out of 10, April 2013

This is the first work by Alexander Levine (born in Moscow in 1955, now living in the West) I have heard. It follows the noble line of russian settings of The Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom by Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff, Gretchaninov, Kastalsky et al, expressed in a manner with which none of Levine's predecessors would have felt uncomfortable. If neither Levine's musical language nor style is 'modern', the genuine feel of the work is impressive. It is beautifully recorded and performed, although I suspect the final part, 'Blessed be the name of the Lord', would have benefitted from a slower tempo and a decrease in dynamic. But this remains an interesting and important CD.

Musical Opinion, Robert Matthew-Walker
July 2013
Tenebrae has already recorded another substantial work by Russian composer Alexander Levine (b.1955), Prayers for Mankind. They understand his soundworld and this makes for a polished and convincing rendering. Those listeners who, like me, have spent hours absorbing Orthodox divine liturgy settings by Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff and Tavener will find much to savour here. The language is tonal, often gentle and sustained, but always contrasted, deeply expressive of the sacred texts, and consistently rewarding, interpreted through the vibrato-free yet appropriately sonorous timbre of Tenebrae.
Choir & Organ, Matthew Power
I first encountered the music of Alexander Levine a couple of years ago when Tenebrae recorded his Prayers for Mankind. A Symphony of Prayers of Father Alexander Men (2007-08). I was impressed by the music and by the fine performance it received (review) so I welcomed the chance to hear Tenebrae in another of his works for a cappella choir.
There is a link between this present work and thePrayers for Mankind. The texts for Prayers for Mankindwere a series of prayers by the influential Russian Orthodox priest, Fr. Alexander Men (1935-1990) who was, until his assassination in 1990 a leading figure in the religious revival in post-Soviet Russia. It was while visiting the grave near Moscow of Fr. Men, a family friend, in 2005 that Alexander Levine felt impelled to compose a musical setting of the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom. Levine describes the process that led him to compose the music in a booklet note. I was interested to read that the finished score benefited from the patronage of Valery Gergiev to whom Levine showed the score in 2007. Gergiev arranged forthe work to be performed by the Mariinsky Opera Choir at his Easter Festival in 2008 and it was given at four consecutive Festivals between 2008 and 2011.
The Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom is one of the key Eucharistic liturgies of the Orthodox Church; it is used on most weekdays and dates back, I believe, to the fifth century. Levine's musical setting is divided into 22 separate movements, all of which are quite short – in this performance the majority last for between three and five minutes and the longest takes 6:20.
The music is recognisably founded on and indebted to the musical traditions of the Orthodox Church yet, as you would expect, Levine has not slavishly followed that tradition and produced a clone of earlier settings. That much is obvious right at the start when, after the Deacon's incantation the choir sings "Amin". However, this word is not set to the traditional two sonorous block chords. Rather, the word floats around on intertwining thematic ribbons before finally coming to rest on two soft block chords. In other words, Levine has built on the Orthodox tradition but, very rightly, he's given it a contemporary slant and has brought his own musical experiences and ideas to bear. Nor has he been afraid to bring in musical influences from outside the Orthodox mainstream. I think it's worth quoting from his note on the piece. He says this:-
"I perceived the ethical values of liturgical prayers as being ecumenical (my italics) in their essence …. That is why the music of this Liturgy highlights different musical approaches found in Christian cultures across history from Greek or Byzantine chant, to medieval polyphony. The pervading influence of renaissance counterpoint and Byzantine chant alongside a poly-chord texture features prominently in this liturgy."
Much of the music is very beautiful. I can easily see two or three of the movements having the potential to become popular as free-standing pieces as has happened to 'Bogoroditsye Devo' from Rachmaninov's All Night Vigil. In this category I would place the intense, very beautiful First Antiphon (Movement II); the Third Antiphon (Movement V), a wonderful setting of The Beatitudes in which the music is sometimes assertive and sometimes radiant; and the lovely Hymn to the Virgin (Movement XVI), which features light, transparent musical textures, as befits the feminine subject.
I found that one very soon falls under the spell of Levine's music. In my case this had happened well before the end of the first movement, Introduction and Great Litany, in which there are some ravishing choral textures. In this movement, which is the longest, much of the music is slow and prayerful, especially when the words 'Lord, have mercy' are being sung, but eventually the choir's prayer becomes more urgent in tone. This is a characteristic that we will encounter quite often as the work unfolds: on many occasions Levine doesn't maintain the same tempo or mood for an entire movement; rather he varies his music in urgency as the words demand. So, for example, the third movement, Second Antiphon, starts with male voices and at quite a steady pace. Gradually, the music becomes more urgent in tone, especially as female voices are added to the vocal mix. We find that both the pace of the music picks up and that the tessitura rises ever higher as the chorus of praise intensifies.
Much of the music is slow or moderate in tempo, as one might expect, but there are also many fervent, animated passages. The Trisagion Hymn (Movement VII), for example, is, for the most part, strongly rhythmical, founded on a repeated figure sung by the basses. The effect is very exciting. Immediately afterwards, however, comes the highly contrasting Litany of Fervent Supplication. Here Levine constructs 3:32 of very beautiful, contemplative music using just three words of text.
Each individual movement contains rewarding and lovely music yet the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. I find that the work's greatest effect is cumulative and it's fitting that the final movement, 'Blessed be the Name of the Lord', ends in a blaze of affirmation.
Levine's Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom is one of those works which, when you hear it, you feel the composer had to write – and that's without reading his note, which confirms that this is indeed the case. It strikes me as a work of deep conviction and sincerity; a piece, in short, that comes from the heart. The music is wonderfully varied, inventive, responsive to the words and accessible to the listener. It's a work that, I should imagine, poses many technical challenges for the singers yet it is superbly imagined for voices – the textures are wonderful and often ravish the ear. In Nigel Short and Tenebrae the music has the best possible advocates. The singing is immaculate and burns with conviction. It is, quite simply, superb. Producer Nicholas Parker and Engineer Mike Hatch have recorded the performance with great sympathy, producing sound that is clear yet also atmospheric.
Anyone interested in the music of the Orthodox Church should hear this beautiful and imaginative score which respects and is built on the tradition of Orthodox music yet at the same time takes that tradition in a new and exciting direction. The disc is equally of interest to collectors who appreciate eloquent and beautifully written modern choral music.
Musicweb International, John Quinn
June 2013
Tenebrae have already recorded an earlier work by the Moscow-bom composer Alexander Levine, Prayersf or Mankind (1/11), on texts by the martyr priest Alexander Men. This setting of the Liturgy of StJohn Chrysostom - the standard form of the Eucharistic service in the Byzantine rite - was inspired by a visit to Men's grave. It is shot through by the same passionate urgency and by the same fluency in writing for choral ensemble, at once contemporary and connected with the great Russian choral tradition of the past. Levine himself invokes both Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov in his booklet-notes, and not without reason. The fact that the work's text is in Slavonic, rather than the English of Prayers, is indicative of the way language shapes music; Levine's ringing chordal writing and the subtle weighting towards the lower voices (including the subterranean bass) is a very direct response to the words of the Liturgy.
But is it a genuinely liturgical work? That is a difficult question to answer. In principle, there is no reason why it could not be used in a liturgical celebration (the priest's petitions are not sung here except for the opening blessing), but it is very definitely an elaborate kind of music and requires a very high standard of performance. Tenebrae are the choir for the job: the sound, while perfectly blended, is also, paradoxically, clearly built from individual timbres, like a richly veined marble. It is surely just what the composer desired for this luminous music.

May 2013
Tenebrae and Nigel Short have already recorded a major choral work by the Russian composer Alexander Levine, his Prayers for Mankind of 2008, also released on Signum. Since he settled in Britain in 1992, Levine has been active as a composer for the theatre, and his catalogue of independent works is now growing steadily. Another choral work was premiered in the United States in March of this year, for example, and now there is this important recording which coincides with the publication of the score by Peters Edition.
I have not heard Prayers for Mankind and, indeed, The Divine Liturgy is the first music by Levine to have come my way. It was completed in 2006 and was performed in the composer's native land before being taken up by Tenebrae. The booklet contains a long essay by the composer in which he outlines the inspiration and thinking behind the work, which came to represent an important emotional and spiritual experience for him. He also provides some commentary on the music itself, though this is hardly necessary, as it is most accessible, speaking, as it were, directly to the listener. Following the texts does help, however, and these are also provided, alongside an English translation.
The composer also writes of how he was conscious, throughout the gestation and composition of the work, of the unaccompanied choral works of two great Russian predecessors, Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov. Potential listeners will know what to expect when I say that the atmosphere of the work, indeed its very sound, is not so far removed from the models of those two great composers. Levine evokes how he consciously avoided 'skilfully setting words to music' in favour of a 'relentless search for mysterious revelations of the ancient texts ...'. The result is a work that lasts nearly 80 minutes, demanding a fair level of concentration and application from the listener, and this in spite of the fact that the musical language is only intermittently, and then barely, more advanced than Rachmaninov's masterpiece. You have to wait until the seventh of the 22 short movements before anything approaching fast music appears, where its seven-in-a-bar metre is a sign that this is, after all, a contemporary work.
Overall, though, and happily, given the duration of the work, there is rather more variety and contrast than in either the Tchaikovsky or the Rachmaninov models. As early as the second movement, for example, the music rises to a passionate climax at the words 'Glory be to the Father', and the setting of the 'Creed' - the passage where many a composer's inspiration has tended to cool - provokes, from Levine, perhaps the most varied writing of the whole work. Other high spots include the 'Sanctus' setting, whose cries of 'Hosanna' are positively ecstatic, and the explosion of joy that occurs at the end of the 'Communion'. Whilst sympathizing with the composer's aims - the liturgical nature of the work is of prime importance, rather than its success as a concert work - I do feel that the more varied writing of the second half brings the listener greater rewards. It also renders the close of the work, a passage of fervent acclamation and affirmation, all the more inevitable and effective.
There are many very lovely sounds throughout this work, and those who appreciate Orthodox church music will find much to enjoy here. It makes ideal late-night listening, but it will also repay close study. The performance is spectacularly successful. Short paces the score superbly and his singers are with him at every turn. They even make a creditable stab at sounding Russian, with some magnificently dark basses throughout, and any choral conductor will covet those singers, not named in the booklet, who undertake the very few solo passages. The sound of this magnificent choir is perfectly captured in a tranquil church acoustic.
International Record Review, William Hedley
John Chrysostom "the golden-tongued" (347-407) was the most eloquent preacher of his day and rose to the position of Archbishop of the Imperial capital Constantinople; Alexander Men (1935-1990) was a Russian priest and reformer at the close of the Soviet Empire. How these two interesting characters came to be linked through the work of the Russian-born (in 1955) composer Alexander Levine is a story that is worth hearing and is indeed told in the interesting CD booklet. The journey started with a pilgrimage to the grave of Father Alexander Men at Novaya Derevnya near Moscow. "When I returned to London", says Alexander Levine, "I had a strong feeling that I should start composing the music for the Liturgy straight away. . . I thought about this journey as the spiritual experience of a person who one day comes to the church to participate in a liturgical service, where prayers and music would cast upon him the joy of unification in spirit with the divinity of God through Jesus Christ." The resulting composition certainly achieves this numinosity, with echoes of Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov. The chamber choir Tenebrae under the direction of Nigel Short is in superlative voice and the recording at St Augustine's Church in Highbury, London, is crystal clear. Although the texts are in Russian (with a translation in the CD booklet) the accent is still slightly English and one wonders what a Russian choir would sound like. But this is a minor quibble and if any other choir could manage to sound better than Tenebrae it would be stunning. Levine has adapted the Liturgy somewhat so that there is no solo part for the priest and instead the choir sings throughout. This moves the work towards being a concert piece rather than an act of worship (which is an observation and not a criticism). Those whose interest in Orthodox music was awakened by John Tavener may well enjoy this further and deeper exploration and all who appreciate fine choral singing will applaud Nigel Short and Tenebrae.

Alexander Levine's Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom was written in 2006, in memory of his friend Father Alexander Men, the Russian Orthodox priest who became an influential spiritual leader and architect of religious renewal in Russia at the end of the Soviet period. The work was premiered in Russia in 2008 ,but the Mariinsky Opera Choir at the Easter Festival in Moscow. The work received its UK premiere earlier this month at the launch of this CD, with Tenebrae directed by Nigel Short (see our review of the concert on this blog).
Alexander Levine (born 1955) studied at the Gnessin Music Academy in Russia, then moved to the UK in 1992 where he studied at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama with Gary Carpenter and Simon Bainbridge. The Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom sets the Russian Orthodox liturgy familiar from the settings by Tchakovsky and Rachmaninov. Like them, Levine uses just an unaccompanied choir (instruments are forbidden in liturgical music in the Russian Orthodox Church), but he has given some of the deacons and the priests part to the choir itself.
The CD booklet described how Levine's approach to the writing of the work was extremely spiritual. But as with any music, the success of the piece is in how the listener perceives it: good intentions are not enough.
The work clearly lives in the same musical world as Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov's settings of the liturgy, in a the way that settings of the Roman Catholic Mass do not necessarily share the same musical ethos (just consider say RVW and James MacMillan's settings).
Levine uses a similar mixture of chant, homophony and lively canonic passages with a strong emphasis on drones. But mixed in with this is a harmonic language which incorporates the sort of close harmony chords beloved of Eric Whitacre and Morten Lauridsen. Levine uses these to create a radiance which is entirely apposite to the work.
There is another interesting influence that is sometimes hinted at, that of Alfred Schnittke. Not that Levine's writing attempts to approach the complexity of Schnittke's, but Schnittke's handling of chant in works like the Choral Concerto is echoed distantly in Levine's setting.
For those not completely familiar with the Russian Orthodox Liturgy, Levine sets the different movements in an admirably varied and highly evocative manner. This is a work which draws us in, whatever your religious persuasion.
The performance by Tenebrae under conductor Nigel Short is extremely fine indeed. The choir numbers just 20 singers, but makes a rich firm sound. Their tuning and placement of the notes in Levine's closely harmonised writing is nothing short of superb. This is singing of a very high order. They bring a quiet beauty of tone to the more reflective moments, which carries over into other parts of the work and their contribution to the sheer radiance of the performance is significant.
The sound quality of the choir is still decidedly English, though they bring a nice intensity to the piece. I have to confess that I am highly curious as to what a performance by a Russian choir would be like?
Ultimately the work does succeed, Levine manages to sustain an intensity of feeling and radiance which comes over superbly in this performance.

Jets trade Evander Kane to Sabres in massive 7-player deal
Thomas Drance
February 11 2015 09:43AM
The Winnipeg Jets have reportedly completed a trade that will send Evander Kane, Zach Bogosian, and unsigned goaltender Jason Kasdorf to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for Tyler Myers, Drew Stafford, Brendan Lemieux, Joel Armia and a first round pick.
The deal is reportedly final and the trade call has been made, according to ESPN's Craig Custance. The teams have yet to approve the deal.
Obviously this is a massive seven-player swap, and a very curious trade from a Jets perspective.
The trade probably improves them in the short-term, but only because Kane is injured and wasn't going to play again this season. At the very least adding a right wing like Stafford goes a long way towards addressing the Jets' forward depth issues, and allows the club to move Dustin Byfuglien back to the blue-line where he's significantly more effective.
Myers, 25, is the biggest piece from the Jets perspective. A 6-foot-7 defender with solid skating ability, Myers' on-ice impact has been in decline for several years since he won the Calder Trophy for rookie of the year back in 2010. Of the 13 skaters with whom Myers has shared the ice for more than 400 minutes at 5-on-5 since the 2011-12 season, 10 have fared worse with Myers by shot attempt differential than they've fared alongside him.
I've generally been convinced that Myers is miscast as a top-of-the-roster defenseman, and it hasn't helped that he's been holding down major minutes on a historically bad club in Buffalo. Still there's an argument to be made that Myers is an inferior player to Bogosian, both now and going forward.
Bogosian, 24, has outproduced Myers by a wide margin at 5-on-5 over the past four seasons, though he's similarly had a slight negative impact on his teammates' shot differentials. Actually Myers' and Bogosian's with or without you profile is essentially identical: 10 of the 13 players with whom Bogosian has shared the ice for more than 400 5-on-5 minutes since 2011 have fared worse by Corsi For percentage with Bogosian, than they've done without him.
Beyond their similar two-way results, Bogosian and Myers are on closely aligned contracts - both are signed through 2019 to deal that carry an annual average value above $5 million (Myers' deal has a $5.5 million cap-hit, Bogosians has a $5.14 million cap-hit).
Far and away the most valuable piece going either way in this trade is Kane, a 23-year-old power forward who has consistently scored at a top-line rate in his NHL career. With everything that's happened it was probably impossible for the Jets to keep Kane, but if we consider the Myers-Bogosian portion of the deal as a straight up swap, then essentially Kane netted the Jets two decent prospects in Lemieux and Armia, a reasonably effective rental player in Stafford, and a first-round pick.
That's not a bad return considering the context, but long-term you'd objectively rather have a player of Kane's youth and quality than the quantity of iffy futures that the Jets are receiving in return.
If nothing else we'll never be able to say that Kevin Cheveldayoff doesn't trade NHL players. That meme is dead.
Overall the Sabres appear to have made out very well in terms of accelerating the timeline of their rebuilding efforts. The Jets meanwhile managed to make lemonade out of the stones they were handed late last week as a result of the incident between Kane and his teammates.
That lemonade might be a bit sour, and surely isn't worth the 50 cents paid to some enterprising local seven-year-old. Extraordinary circumstances backed the Jets into a corner here though, and viewed in that context, this will play.

Yahoo! Great news!
haha winnipeg got absolutely fleeced in this deal.

haha winnipeg got absolutely fleeced in this deal.
Not when you consider that it was never going to work with Kane in Winnipeg. Although Bogosian is not as over-rated as Myers, the two decent propsects and 1st round pick in a deep draft make up for it in my opinion.
I think it is a good deal for both. Myers and Stafford will at least be a bit more motivated for a playoff push - Kane wasn't doing much this year anyways for the Jets before he got hurt.
Jets need to make the playoffs this year and with the guy that isn't part of the long term plan being hurt, a trade to shore up that playoff spot with a team like Buffalo was a good move for them.
February 11 2015, 10:26AM
Can I be the first to coin the phrase, "Kaner McDavid?"
You know it's coming....Might as well get it out now.
Jets got volume but Sabres win the trade.
Don't be fooled by the value of Lemieux and Armia. Both project as third liners. The first rounder the Jets got will likely be bottom 5, which probably gets them another third liner at best.
Bogosian for Myers is probably a saw-off.
Bottom line - the Sabres walk away with a top line player - albeit a kid with an attitude. And the Jets get some spare parts for the future, and Stafford - a serviceable player to help push towards the playoffs.
Sabres win the deal, no question.
Considering the circumstances, this is a great deal for the Jets in my opinion. Myers and Bogosian may be similar now, but I still believe Myers has a higher ceiling (realizing he's a year older).
The Jets and Kane were over. Him leaving is addition by subtraction. It sucks because his skill-set is tantalizing. But there's no guarantee he'll ever be able realize it.
February 11 2015, 10:55AM
Bonus for the Jets, they got to send Kane to the Sabres. That's a swift kick in the nuts, right there.
February 11 2015, 11:05AM
Chevy should have acted way earlier - terrible asset management. There's chatter about the jets doing well relative to the circumstances.
They should have sold when that stock was $100 but they sold when it was $60.
In my opinion the Jets won this deal hands down. Evander Kane has played 1 full season in the NHL since he has been drafted and that was the lockout season. Since he has been in the NHL, out of a possible 540 games he has played in 361. In those 361 games he has produced 222 points. That is 222 points out of a possible 540 games.
He is very injury prone and brings a horrible attitude with him. Could he of finished the year before getting surgery, especially with the Jets in a playoff race? I am sure he could of. That shows how much heart he has.
I like the prospects we got back. Lemieux will most likely be a 3rd liner at best but he is a team player and is a very big boy who can score when needed too.
Armia could be a 2nd liner and could produce at a decent pace in the NHL. I like him.
This is a very deep pool so I am sure the player the Jets pick will turn into an NHL'er.
We also get the rental of Drew Stafford who can help the Jets get into the playoffs or be traded at the deadline still for more prospects.
The Myers for Bogosian deal hurts as I prefer Bogosian over Myers but Winnipeg had to send something over to Buffalo to even the deal.
This is my opinion on the trade, I am sure everyone else has their own that they think is right.
Stafford is a UFA after this season by the way. I wonder how hard the Jets try to sign him. He's always seemed like a slightly above 3rd liner to me.
I urge everyone to read the article Thomas linked to. Its written by Garret Hohl of Jetsnation and is a really great read. Here's the link if you can't find it above.
Herein lies the problem with CorsiRel. The Jets have a very good blueline, and thus, it is much more difficult to make d partners better with you than without you. It's all relative... In Buffalo, meanwhile, their backend is a disaster. To not be able to make your d partners improve on a team with arguably the worst d-core in the league is a massive red flag. I find it hard to believe that Bogosian's WOWY stats wouldn't be much improved on a much inferior Buffalo d-core.
As an outsider with no horses in this race, I think that the Jets did well today by subtracting a problem and distraction from their roster in return for both some immediate and long term help. Good trade for Winnipeg and good trade for the Sabres.
Since four of the players involved have played one or less NHL game, and three of the others are 25 or less years old, it seems premature to assign a win/lose to this deal.
I look forward to seeing what Kane can do with more minutes in Buffalo.
Kane...Bad apple and all about Evander Bogo... Issues that required 6 weeks off while no injury present...hmmm his live in Trouba also missed six weeks with no visible injury. They weren't getting therapy from the trainers but they were getting therapy..ask Eric Clapton why Chevy shipped him outta town..."he don't like, he don't like, he don't like...CO...AINE"

You say that like 3rd liners at t important. Without quality 3rd and 4th liners you won't win anything.
I like this deal for both team. Buffalo takes the risk hoping Kane will grow up and one day pretend hes a pro athlete, jets take less risk hoping Myers will turn into a stud.
The 2 prospects arnt just random prospects, they both have a legitimate shot at being quality 3/4 liners that can contribute. And who knows what you get with the first pick in a deep draft.
I like this trade for both teams. Good deal

How to Oust Assad
And Why the United States Should Try
On Tuesday, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry spoke of the recent chemical attack in Syria as an "undeniable" fact -- not a subject for debate. He called it "moral obscenity" and laid the blame squarely on the regime of Bashar al-Assad. The statement was an undisguised war speech. The only question now is what form that war might take and how long the battle will last.
There are several rumors swirling. One is that the Obama administration would prefer a mere "punitive" campaign. Some precision-timed leaks to the media seem to point in this direction. But such a strategy would accomplish nothing if the goal is to deter the Assad regime from ever using chemical agents again. Over the past year, Israel has waged half a dozen pinprick strikes on caches of advanced weapons inside Syria, likely because they were destined for Hezbollah in Lebanon. The very number of operations attests to how little they altered Assad's mindset: he still imports high-tech hardware.
Another rumored plan, which NBC reported, citing senior U.S. officials, is that sorties over the next few days would not aim to kill Assad or topple his regime, but may seek to destroy or to degrade his command-and-control facilities, artillery systems, and airfields. That is surely a smarter option, provided that the strikes rise above sending a message and do some lasting damage to the regime's military infrastructure. Anything short of that would be strategically useless and a waste of expensive missiles.
Indeed, U.S. President Barack Obama should rearticulate his policy of regime change for Syria, which he first announced in the summer of 2011 and has quietly revised and rescinded ever since. And he should gear any intervention toward furthering that policy, in accordance with what key American allies have said is their own preferred method for dislodging the 40-year dynastic dictatorship: the opposition's gradual assertion of control. Contrary to the conventional wisdom, there are already examples that this can work

Thanks for helping!
This a fantastic historical venue! The staff is very knowledgeable and polite!As a historian myself,I had a tremendous time and an educational experience!
Definitely worth going to see! Tons of interesting artifacts and tour guide was full of great information! Inexpensive to get in, worth going to see!
I have visited this intriguing (and supposedly haunted) museum on three different occasions, and I have yet to be able to get in! No one is ever there! (Maybe because it is haunted!) It's a great place to stroll the grounds, and the main building is 135 years old. Built in 1879, it has been used to accumulate much history...
Cool place to visit with a TON of history. Its crazy to imagine all that went on in this large house within the last 200 years. I couldn't help but feeling 'strange' while I walked from room to room. The air sometimes felt stiff and then at moments it felt cold and breezy. It was quite freaky. I would totally...
This building is a landmark amoungst all the commercialness of the Eastview Mall area. Behind Uno and The Northface. Thank Goodness it has been saved. Call ahead for hrs or check their website. Local history and some really cool stuff to look at.
It was a lot of fun there. Went for their Holloween Haunted House, they do a great job there.
This place is fabulous! To check it further check out website for hours! It is closed for winter, but opens again in spring! This is a place with lots of history. Also, was shown on SyFy's "Ghost Hunters (TAPS) episode. I was fortunate enough to go the weekend of 10/16-10/18, and meet Brian Harnois a former member of "TAPS", and...

Volleyball is a game of adjustments and Mountain Pointe's Jared Ahern made a big one this season.
The junior has moved from libero to an outside hitter for the Pride's boys volleyball team this season.
"The whole mental mindset is different," Ahern said. "Instead of staying back, I have to get up to the ball now. Both positions are fun, but I feel like I need to get better."
Playing as a sophomore last season helped.
"The first year I played I was kind of nervous, but I'm more into it now," he said.
Ahern was introduced to volleyball by his older brother, Jordan, who also played libero for the Pride and as a senior was on the Pride's first of two consecutive state championship teams in 2008.
Now Jordan is a volleyball official.
"But obviously he can referee our games," Ahern said.
Mountain Pointe has won seven state boys volleyball titles, and Jared was a member of the team that earned the title last season.
"I had played baseball for a long time," Ahern said. "But my brother convinced me to try volleyball when I was in the eighth grade. I started playing volleyball, and I loved it."
Ahern has ascended to the team captain role this season.
Mountain Pointe coach Fred Mann calls Ahern the team's emotional leader.
Besides rotating on the court, there is a constant cycle of players graduating and coming in from the junior varsity to stir up the team chemistry.
"It takes a little while to figure out where we're supposed to play and get used to it," Ahern said. "We're getting there."
Mountain Pointe had a 7-2 record going into the spring break this season.

Hayabusa2 nearly ready for launch: Photos from Tanegashima, and new artist's renderings
Posted by Emily Lakdawalla
Topics: pretty pictures, Hayabusa2, mission status
On October 27, JAXA provided media with an opportunity to view the Hayabusa2 spacecraft at the Tanegashima space center, where it's making final preparations for launch. The spacecraft had been fueled with xenon, but not yet with more hazardous chemical fuel and oxidizer. Once fueled, it will be mounted atop the H-IIA rocket, ready for launch on November 30 at 13:24:48 Japan time (04:24 UT or November 29 at 20:24 PST). Koumei Shibata was there, and took several photos:

Here is the business end, the sampler horn. Shibata pointed out that a cover was still on the sampler horn the last time he had seen the spacecraft, at Sagamihara (pictured at right); that cover has been removed.

JAXA had obligingly positioned a mirror to allow photographers to see underneath the spacecraft, including the impactor (round thing at center) and the small target markers, which Hayabusa2 will release to guide its descent to the asteroid's surface (little spheres covered with squares surrounding the impactor):

It might be fun to compare the view of the spacecraft when it was at Tanegashima with this lengthy video just posted by JAXA of the spacecraft when it was presented to media at Sagamihara, where Hayabusa2 was assembled.
Everything's looking good!
In other Hayabusa2-related news, this week computer graphics artist Go Miyazaki shared a pile of really lovely new artist impressions of Hayabusa2 in space. I've added several of them to our image library, but there are even more on his Flickr page. Check out his great work below.

Tillman verbally commits to Stanford
By: Staff Reports
BALDWIN — Jontrey Tillman is answering the call of "Go West Young Man" as he has verbally committed to play for the Stanford Cardinal next season.
Tillman, a senior plays defensive back/running back at West St. Mary High School.
Tillman decided to commit to the Cardinals this past Friday with a call to recruiting coordinator Lance Anderson. Tillman, who plans to major in mechanical engineering, will play for Stanford's new head football coach David Shaw during the 2012 season.
"It's a great experience to receive an offer from Stanford," Tillman said. "I was recruited as a defensive back but I can play on both sides of the ball at DB and receiver."
The diminutive fireplug Tillman - who stands 5-foot-7 and weighs 180 pounds - will be spending every waking moment of Friday nights this year as the leader of the Wolfpack. Tillman has risen to leader of the Wolfpack after catching the eyes of the coaching staff as an eighth-grader.
Tillman epitomizes the student-athlete, excelling on and off the field. He has dazzled Wolfpack fans for years, at one point becoming a star in four sports. Tillman, who earned first team All-District running back and first team Best of the Teche honors last season, maintains a 4.0 grade-point-average.
"I want to play good football along with the other seniors on the team," he said. "I, along with the rest of the senior mem-bers, want to be the leaders of the team as we enter 2-A this season."
Tillman's wish to lead the Wolfpack brings a sparkle to the eyes of second-year coach and athletic director Ryan Antoine.
"Jontrey is the model student athlete," he said. "He's the model student, who has a 4.0, a 25 on the ACT and he is one of the hardest working players who has ever stepped on the field."
Tillman, who plans to visit Stanford University later this summer, points to his mother Paulette Tillman as the guiding force to his career.
"My mother has always pushed me to do my best," he said.
Antoine realizes the opportunity for Tillman to sign with the likes of Stanford opens doors for scholar-athletes to step up to the next level.
"These athletes are getting the exposure because they are doing the things necessary to reach the next level," he said. "Coach Andre Lockley was the great football coach and teacher who started the program and now, I know and these ath-letes know, they must continue the proud tradition. Jontrey is the perfect example of walking in the footsteps and con-tinuing the tradition here at West St. Mary."
Tillman made a name for himself as a versatile all-star runningback/defensive back with the Wolfpack over the years while competing in District 6-3A.
The Wolfpack will move down to Class 2A this season and Tillman has already developed a philosophy for reaching the elite level in the state.
"As players we must continue learning to play with each other and the most important thing is continuing to develop trust in one another and the coaching staff and the rest will take care of itself."

I have had a streaked ventricosa for 5 years now. This year was the first
year I got a bloom scape. All of the leaves have remained well streaked and
the new flushes of leaves arrive with highly contrasting streaks. I decided
to take it to First Look this year seeking fame and fortune.Since I had not
read the instructions very carefully I cut of the flower scape. I placed it
in a a jar of sugar water on the window sill. There, I selfed it as much as
I could. The pods formed and then aborted after about 7 days. I used other
pollen, but the results were the same. Nothing remained. I used it as a
pollen parent and those crosses apparently took, although I used plants
outside and perhaps was not as careful as I should have been in keeping the
hungry bees away. I have followed this thread with a good deal of interest.
I find this NON-SPORT of ventricosa (which I learned from Bill M.) an
attractive plant and shared it this summer for the first time. The streaks
are pronounced (much more than those of Chirifu) and apparently just as
stable (famous last words).
George S. refered to his H. 'Gosan Line Up' in one of his last e-mails.
Since seeing the picture of this plant I have wondered about its pedigree.
