In Memoriam
Christine Sleeper, veteran Latin teacher and ACL member, died this past winter on February 15. An amazing woman, she had a pilot's license, became an air traffic controller, and served with the American Red Cross. At the daunting age of 54, in 1970, she entered the Latin classroom and left a blazing trail of excellence including the founding of the National Latin Examination. A number of the ACL Institute participants journeyed right after the conference to New Hampshire to celebrate this remarkable woman and attend a memorial service in her honor.

Editor's Note
Whither has summer run? It seems like ages ago that I was in Italy in June conducting a tour of Rome, Tuscany, Amalfi, and Campania. Already schools in Georgia are beginning classes! I received an announcement for my own faculty orientation on the 15th! And, I have so many projects still to do . . .
If you're looking for some engaging material to enrich your classes, check out the teaching resources and tips in this issue. While our regular Tech Tip advisor Lynne West has been studying on a Fulbright this summer and presenting a workshop on technology in the classroom for teacher, we present an exciting new source for material on Rome—Ancient Rome Live—and an interview with its founder Darius Arya.
The summer was punctuated by the sad occasion of the passing of Barbara McManus, a wonderful person, a dedicated servant of the classics community, and a respected scholar. It was my pleasure to share a Vergilian Society Campania program in 1979 with Barbara and then again to share a Roman Britain program. It was a regular delight to connect with her at APA meetings and more recently at CAAS conferences. Barbara's CAAS colleagues wrote a beautiful
Requiescat in pace
May Barbara's dedication inspire us all in our endeavors on behalf of the classics community of learners.

American Classical League Report
The 68th Annual Institute of the
American Classical League
was held at the
University of Connecticut
in Storrs, Connecticut, from June 26 to 28, 2015. B-C was represented by Marie & Allan Bolchazy, Don Sprague, and Laurel Draper. An attractive exhibit of six tables packed to the max displayed B-C's books from the BC Readers to the AP Latin materials and
Latin for the New Millennium
. While traffic at the exhibit was brisk, the conference afforded B-C reps time to catch up with authors and to address concerns and questions from teachers. Marie was pleased to autograph some of her
I Am Reading Latin books
Comments from
users revealed that some are not aware of the resources provided in the Teachers' Lounge. From additional readings for Level 1 to a Quia test bank for Levels 1 and 2 and a variety of worksheets, maps, and other materials, the Teachers' Lounge provides a variety of materials from B-C and hosts an abundance of materials created by teachers using
. For example, the Lounge provides an
1 // NLE 1 correlation. No matter what textbook series a teacher uses, she has to supplement and/or accelerate the introduction of some topics. For instance,
does not present all the tenses as early as other books do. Some teachers do this NLE instruction in class, while others provide students resources for learning on their own.
The ACL Institute served as a launch for B-C's two volumes to meet the current International Baccalaureate Latin examination curriculum.
Lectiones Memorabiles: Volume I: Selections from Catullus, Cicero, Livy, Ovid, Propertius, Tibullus, and Vergil
by Marianthe Colakis and Lectiones Memorabiles,
Volume II: Selections from Horace, Lucretius, Seneca, Suetonius, and Tacitus
by Yasuko Taoka quickly sold. Not only did IB teachers welcome these new books but others thought the anthologies would serve an intermediate college class or an upper level high school class quite well.
The new buttons were a hit. People also were thrilled with our "Buy a book, get a (classic) button" promotion, where we gave away the old buttons. (Look for the September issue of
for a special feature on the new buttons.)
Teachers continued to tell us about their schools dispensing with paper workbooks and textbooks and now others shared that their department or their schools were abandoning that route. Unfortunately, texts like
A Notebook for Caesar
A Notebook for Vergil
don't work digitally, with the ready possibility of cutting and pasting, copying, etc. Students have to write in them at home and bring just the notebook to class. That makes them very teacher-friendly as teachers can walk around the room and see who has or has not done her homework. The
workbooks are, however, available digitally.
Participants faithfully attended the many presentations and panels on the program. During those time slots, traffic in the exhibit room thinned considerably. B-C folks made sure to attend two presentations featuring B-C authors. Don and Marie attended a panel organized by BC Readers editor Ronnie Ancona entitled "A Little Lucan Goes a Long Way: The Value of Introducing Lucan's
De Bello Civili
into the Secondary School Latin Classroom." The other presenters joining Professor Ancona were graduate students who had studied Lucan and the
BC Latin Reader
with her. The backgrounds of these six Hunter students were amazingly diverse. Several had started out with a focus on business before deciding to become secondary Latin teachers; one was the winner of the 2015 Sally Davis award. The topics were also diverse: one presenter compared the writings of Lucan and Edgar Allan Poe, another compared Caesar's and Lucan's descriptions of the crossing of the Rubicon, and another compared Lucan's views on the Roman Civil War with an American perspective of the American Civil War.
For a post AP Latin Exam activity, have students compare Caesar's and Lucan's accounts of the civil war.
For a cross-disciplinary unit, have students compare Lucan to Paul Lawrence Dunbar's poem on the American Civil War.
Laurel graciously served as power point clicker for Rose Williams's presentation "New Spain or New Rome? Hispanic Work in the New World." Rose kept a group of 15 or so, including Don, engaged as she presented various aspects of Roman influence in New Spain including references to the authors and works in the forthcoming new text Rose has enthusiastically constructed—
Latin of New Spain
. The session concluded with small group work translating three Latin passages and then a question and answer period. Rose was very pleased with the response and reported that a number of people followed up with her following the presentation

Both Marie and Don attended Saturday evening's award ceremony. Adam Blistein of the
Society of Classical Studies
received a certificate of appreciation for his service. Adam, who will be retiring next June from his position as SCS executive director, worked tirelessly to ensure collaboration between the ACL and the SCS. Bob Patrick of Parkview High School in Gwinnett County, Georgia was presented the SCS/ACL award for outstanding pre-collegiate teaching. The ceremony also recognized National Latin Exam scholarship recipients and their teachers.

awards were given to (1) John Traupman (
Conversational Latin
)—in absentia—Ronnie Ancona accepted for him and shared some remarks John had sent to Sherwin Little; (2) Virginia Blasi (she praised Lou in her acceptance speech); (3) David Pellegrino (AP Latin Vocabulary Cards); (4) Cindy Caltagirone, ACL technology guru; and (5) David Perry, who was unable to attend the 2014 ACL to receive his award. After dinner, Stan Farrow played the piano and we all sang songs both in English and in Latin. At the request of Judy Hallett and in honor of the Supreme Court decision validating same-sex marriage, we sang "Over the Rainbow" including Judy's Latin version.
Allan, Marie, Laurel, and Don left the Institute pleased with the success of the B-C exhibit and inspired by the dedication and enthusiasm of the ACL attendees.
Congratulations to the winners of our book bundle drawing at ACL! Paul Giblin (left) won a bundle of Roman culture resource books and Lance Piantaggini won a bundle of Latin author books including the two IB volumes.
Meet the B-C Team
Interview with Laurel Draper
Assistant Editor
Give us a little overview of your time with B-C. How long have you been working for B-C? What attracted you to this job? What are your principal responsibilities?
I've been a full-time employee with B-C since May 2011. My career here began as an internship in the summer of 2010; I found out about the position when I asked a professor if he knew of any summer job openings, preferably in publishing and related to classics. I double-majored in English and classical languages, so working for a classics publishing company appealed to me as a way to use the skills I had developed while also indulging my love of books.
As assistant editor, I work on books at all stages, from acquisitions and development to proofreading. I am the primary editor for some books, while for others I do a particular stage, such as copyediting or proofreading, for another editor's book. Other responsibilities include writing and editing some of our marketing pieces, including the Roman Calendar and the high school catalog. I also represent B-C at some of the conferences we attend each year.
Editor's Note:
Based on the high quality of her work, Laurel was promoted to assistant editor this past spring.
What previous work and volunteer experiences have enriched your service at B-C?
I tutored other students in several subjects while in college. The students had a wide variety of reasons for taking the courses, of background knowledge, and of approaches to learning and studying. Learning how to explain the same content or concept in different ways has helped me think about how the textbooks I edit can be more useful to students with different backgrounds and needs.
Recently you undertook a medieval Latin course. Could you talk about your reasons for doing so? About the experience?
A recent ACL newsletter advertised that Dr. Elza Tiner at Lynchburg College was offering an online medieval Latin class that featured a significant pedagogical component. Since one of B-C's goals is to publish a title related to medieval Latin every other year or so, the course appealed to me as a way to be better prepared to edit medieval Latin textbooks while also considering the material from a teacher's perspective.
The class featured reading and translating selections from medieval Latin, then preparing annotations of the passages for students as well as constructing lesson plans. The course also featured a paleography component. I was fascinated to find that many institutions, including the British Library, have been digitizing the manuscripts in their collections and have made the images freely available on their websites.
What are your favorite off-the-job activities?
I enjoy reading in a variety of genres, bicycling (especially to the library), and visiting the Chicago Botanic Garden.
What do you enjoy most about your work at B-C?
The most enjoyable part for me is developmental editing, which is the stage when we consider what should be added, revised, or expanded to make the book more useful for the students who will use it.
Is there a special anecdote about your time at B-C that you'd like to share?
I began studying Latin in high school and still have a handful of T-shirts that feature Latin phrases. Sometimes when I'm out running errands a Latin teacher or former classics student will ask about my shirt, and I'll get to share about working at B-C.

Interview with Darius Arya, founder of Ancient Rome Live
Darius Arya standing on one of the newly restored
opus sectile
floors of a late antique
from this year's dig in Parco dei Ravennati, part of Ostia's
. The decorations rival the late antique houses of Ostia like that of Cupid and Psyche.
Let's start with Ancient Rome Live. What's it all about? What are your hopes for it?
Ancient Rome Live . . .
We're committed to presenting ancient Rome and the classics in accessible, engaging formats that are also educational and accurate. We also know that if the content isn't cool enough then no one will watch it. So, after committing so much time to social media conversation, we think we've got a winning format. We'll have to see, of course.
Previously, we have been busy on our
YouTube channel (Ostia Antica, Digging History, a promotion of the Alto Medioevo Museum in EUR for the Italian Ministry of Culture and
Fastionline videos
. They were not enough.
We've now created a larger platform—with a stand-alone website that is intended to be THE destination for video content on ancient Rome. (The app is to follow this fall!)
The website is clean and straightforward. The videos are reliable, accurate, and fun. And they are on a sustainable platform. Years from now, the videos will still be available—so the site, reliable for the long term, can be a go-to hub for educators and students.
The videos also have original animations that we've produced as well. So the content is one-of-a-kind and engaging.
All other cited material has been vetted, and we have permission to use—for a winning package of information in short-hand presentations, 2–4 minutes long.
We think that ARL will succeed in being an important online resource!
How do you see the average high school teacher using Ancient Rome Live?
The videos are bite-sized and very specific. For example, for the video on the hills of Rome, we created seven videos, one on each hill, plus a summary video on all seven. Educators can go the library and choose a topic and assign individual videos for a larger group discussion. The app will include a series of lesson plans as an added resource.
What inspired you to develop this fascinating program?
I've had a lot of experience with TV—and after so many History and National Geographic programs, I figured that we would create our own team, our own format, solely driven to engage and inspire. Thus, we embarked on creating short videos, getting to the core monuments, emperors, and topographical regions for starters. Then we'll move on to more complex issues.
Tell us a bit about your own academic background and what led you to pursue studies of the classical world.
I fell in love with classics through reading ancient mythology at 12 years old. Then I picked up Latin and Greek, eventually traveling to and studying in Europe, in particular Italy. I have a PhD in classical archaeology, years of doing research in Rome (Fulbright, American Academy at Rome fellowship), and 15 years of teaching in Rome, on location, in addition to 13+ years field experience in Rome and Ostia Antica. I love working on location—and teaching on site. It's hard to beat also living in Rome on a daily basis!
What are the other components of the American Institute for Roman Culture?
We currently are focused on
1. social media interaction (
, Instagram @saverome and @airomanculture, Twitter @saverome and @airomanculture, Periscope live streaming: Darius Arya/ @saverome)
2. conservation, site preservation efforts (with ICCROM, Ministry of Culture)
3. summer excavation program at Ostia Antica and new high school programming
4. video production, leading to new app for ARL this fall.
What excavations are you currently pursuing?
The Parco dei Ravennati, the
of Ostia Antica . . .
It's an investigation of a virtually unexplored area—but one of vital importance to understanding Ostia's transition in late antiquity and abandonment in the early medieval period. Check it out at
The Parco dei Ravennati 2015 excavation team—staff and students.
Keeping cool in the shade. Dig site (with sections in the shade, under netting) with Pope Julius II's Renaissance castle of the Borgo in the background.
What's your favorite ancient site in Rome? Please explain. And, what's your favorite place to eat in Rome? Please explain.
It's really hard to beat the Roman Forum. From any angle above (Palatine and Capitoline hill overlooks), or just walking through it—this is where history happened, in every corner, on every stone.
Favorite place to eat—tough to say—as it will vary from the type of food—fish, pasta, steak or fried artichoke. I can safely say, however, that I absolutely love shopping for fresh vegetables in Campo de' Fiori, where I live.

Editor's Note:
Check out
Ancient Rome Live
(created by Darius Arya, hosted by AIRC) as a great resource for integrating material culture into your classes. As Darius says, "Ancient Rome was the world's first metropolis. When we explore the city's remains and try to reconstruct the past we realize just how 'modern' it was, a sophisticated, crowded, thriving cosmopolitan center. It's also difficult to fathom that rich past, over its foundation, rise, and fall. Ancient Rome Live is a new blended learning platform with video, social media, livestreaming (via Periscope), app and website that explains that past and links ancient Rome to our contemporary world."

The Parthenon Enigma
by Joan Breton Connelly
The Parthenon of Athens, that iconic building, with its beauty and fine proportions, is a paragon of architecture. The author provides extensive documentation not only about the building itself but also about the period of time in which it was designed and about the people who made it. Thucydides, Euripides, Cicero, and Plutarch are just a few of the authors she cites.
The range and depth of coverage of
The Parthenon Enigma
is breathtaking. As one would expect, Connelly writes that the building is based on a ratio of 4:9 and the precision with which the ratio is observed is astonishing. Connelly also makes the case that, contrary to popular opinion, Greek temples were not white but were extensively painted with bright colors. When the Parthenon marbles had been prepared for molding with prewashes of lyes or acids, vestiges of color would have been removed. However, laser surface cleaning from 200
6 to
2009 has revealed traces of paint on the west frieze. Connelly also notes that Isadora Duncan performed an ecstatic dance within the Parthenon's colonnade; that Virginia Woolf wrote that her own ghost met her at the Parthenon when she was 23 and that it was more splendid when she viewed it again at the age of 50; and that the Parthenon served as a Christian church for several centuries. She recalls the outrage of Lord Bryon, expressed in the poem "The Curse of Minerva," of the sacrilege of Elgin removing the marbles from Greece.
What I found especially fascinating is her coverage of the discovery of new fragments of Euripides's lost play
, peeled from mummies brought to Paris by Pierre Jougnuet. Connelly writes that the casings of many mummies from Hellenistic Egypt were papier-mâché made up of discarded scraps of papyrus. The ink on those paper scraps did not dissolve. Papyrologists eventually were able to separate the papyrus layers and found new additions to
. So how does a Hellenistic papyrus text transform our understanding of the Parthenon? For one, the newly recovered fragments provide the closing speech of Athena commanding Poseidon to leave Athens in peace
and commanding the widowed Queen Praxithea, in language like that of sacred laws establishing cult places, to establish a sacred precinct for her husband Erechtheus and for her maiden daughters. Athena sets Praxithea as priestess over what becomes the Erectheum and the Parthenon.
Sometimes I found the amount of detail in this book daunting and I will admit that I skimmed portions of the text. However, the text contains much information about the Parthenon and can be used as a reference book. General readers with an interest in Greek history and architecture will value the book, especially if they are planning a trip to Athens. Connelly provides detailed information about the friezes carved on the building. Visitors using this book as a guide can make their trip to the Parthenon far more meaningful. However, given the extensive scholarship found in the book, it will appeal even more to those who have devoted much of their lives to the study of the ancient Greek world.

Morning Edition - 4/12/06
The time has come for my road trip to DC. I'll be leaving NYC on Thursday morning and expect to be in DC (God willing) by the afternoon. Friday, all who RSVP'd should meet at the Daily Grill for our 1:15 p.m. lunch. I'm really excited to see all of you and hope to catch up on everything that everyone has been up to. Angie are you coming? Latisha contacted me to say she'll also be in DC this coming weekend, so we should really try to get together at some point. I'll be visiting my sis Taqua – hopefully on Saturday. Girl, crank up the grill – something light though, I've been sabotaging my diet and exercise because of my cold the last few days. I'll be staying in Georgetown, so getting around town should be pretty easy. My cell #: 917-434-5743.
Selfless Show of Kindness
Evelyn M. has always intrigued me with the way she handles situations. She is classy-hood with that rugged-girly-girl appeal that I have always admired in a woman. All said, she always seems to know what to say and do to make everyone who associates with her feel special and understood. In the past four months I've grown very close to Evelyn and am glad that I have such a determined and focused work-out partner. I also recognize that she has become a fast and true-friend who has captured my heart. Without sharing any of our stories and discussions, Evelyn stepped out and did something so selfless and caring yesterday that I was completely taken aback, pleasantly surprised and sincerely touched. At a time when it's difficult to find folks who will simply do enough to maintain a relationship, Evelyn goes above and beyond to build a life-long bond built on the true meaning of love – expecting nothing, always there and with no agenda. It may not seem like a big deal to you Evelyn, but in the big-picture scheme of things, you've proved yourself to be a cut above the rest. Thank you for being a positive part of a new phase in my life where actions speak so much louder than words. You've inspired me to let down my defenses and care in return. I love you.
Long Story Short
Carmen C. lost her oldest sister last Friday. She expects to bury her Monday, April 17. Our prayers are with you Carmen. Evelyn C. began her one-year intensive course load at NYCs Mercy College. She will complete her Bachelor degree by June 2007. I'm proud of you sis. Dava and Didi B. have joined our blogger family. The beautiful twins have been reading from the sidelines, but we want to take a moment to welcome them to our blogger family and encourage them to throw in their two cents to our discussions. My stunning nephew Daylen (yes gosh darn it…. I said stunning) turns one year old on April 26. You go boy with your two-teeth self!
On Blast
With the immigration laws in the process of changing we're trying to find adequate provisions that folks on both sides of the debate can find acceptable. What is your view on our immigration laws? Should illegal immigrants be allowed to enter our country and stay simply because the US provides a better way of life? What do you believe would be acceptable guidelines for establishing citizenship in the US? Do you believe the present laws are sufficient to maintain order with regard to immigration? What is your view of the Haitian / Cuban double standard for US asylum?
Keep passin' the open windows…

It is not about you Senor 'Pepe Le Pew' Cruz. If we don't have the number, we probably don't want it.
We need rules and guidelines for entry into the every country. I don't believe that we have enough security on tracking those people that we permit enter this country. I also believe we should have exceptions to those rules that are not ultimately defined by color on origin.
If this country was truly diverse we would have many more ethnic groups representing all levels of decisions making. Excuse me but, Whites are NOT the only race with education. This is still a white-washed arena and those people with the power are still afraid of people of color or those that don't think along the same lines as they do.
Thought for today...
Allow yourself to receive and give love. Living in seclusion doesn't nurture our togetherness. If I wax that ass it doesn't mean that I don't love you, it means I do.

Well, well, well… if it isn't ugliness and jealousy rearing its triflin' head again… come on Just Me, you know by now that it really is about me. If you didn't know, now you know. I'm the head rooster of this hen house, so don't get your feathers plucked first thing this morning.
Most Americans derive from some sort of immigration from a foreign country – willing or unwillingly, so it's hypocritical to sit in judgment of folks trying to find a better life for themselves in America. The good US of A is known as the land of opportunity worldwide and we can't blame immigrants for risking life-and-limb to get into our country. That said, there has to be some form of equal and across-the-board regulation to control how many folks flood our country each year, since we unfortunately, end up supporting many of them through our public assistance programs – via your taxes. Also, I'm slightly disturbed at the ease that some immigrants have at obtaining services and college grants, etc., while our impoverished American youth finds no recourse to continue their education and also attain the American dream. In the case of Haitians and Cubans entering the US, it's a case of disparate and completely unfair treatment. As some may already know, Cubans who make landfall in the US are granted asylum and allowed to stay in the US, while Haitians are shipped back even when they've run aground. Either we allow Cubans and Haitians the same rights and rules for entering the US or we're being blatantly racist. I'm not oblivious to the communist situation in Cuba, but we have to recognize the almost certain fatality of impoverished Haitians.

If they are "illegal" I agree with the house' bill, it's a felony. The US guidelines for citizenship that is in place seems to be no problem for those who have gone through it, so why can't the illegals do the same?
This issue is bigger than those who want to better their lives be it Mexicans, Haitian...In my opinion, it's the government's fault. They knew this was happening for years but because their coporate buddies that provided $$$ for their campaigns want to hire the illegal immigrants at a lower rate, they turned their heads. So, now law makers'college aged children can't get a decent paying part time summer job because of the illegal immigrants, the parent's knees are hitting the desk and something must be done. That is bullshyet.
I believe the majority now understands that they may no longer be the majority in say 5 to 10 years and they are trying to move fast to maintain their status. Let's just say they gather all of the illegal immigrants and ship them back in two years. Two months after that, they will be right back. So, these bills needs to rest for a minute. The right here and right now should be about securing the border from FL to CA.

Call me what you want, but I watched those two building fall up close and personal on September 11, 2001. Unless I know everything about you and know that you are going to work as hard as the rest of us and do everything by the book and pay taxes and register for selective service so you can go and fight for America then I am going to have to turn your tired hungry and poor back....because this country needs to start taking care of the legal citizens BEFORE we start taking in anyone else.
Look around you folks. We are a mess right now. We are in no position to leave our door open when we aren't taking care of our "own" people. And yes, illegals are exploited by being paid poverty wages BUT anything here is better than where most of the illegals come from. I am keeping it REAL.
No ... WHITES are not the only race with an education, but it seems to me that predominantly WHITE schools have the most effective curriculum, better facilities and the better graduation rates. Just Me, if you would like to challenge me on this please provide me with all the documentation I need to consider before I go to war with various school boards and politicians. Yes, there are educated latinos, african americans and various other ethnic groups....but the majority is uneducated not by the choice of the child or the community...more so because of a conspiracy of the powers that be.
And personally, I could care less if anyone on this blog has a degree or not. My concern is the children who are currently in the public school systems in urban areas TODAY. Bill Gates shares my concern.
Close the borders DOWN until we get our shyt together.

As my son pointed out to me recently "...but aren't most Americans immigrants or descendants of immigrants?"
My answer was "Yes, I, myself, am an immigrant BUT a LEGAL one."
My family and I came to America in 1969 from Cuba. We waited many years in Cuba after putting in a petition to leave the country. The screening process took many years and we were required, if possible, to have a relative already living in the U.S. to ensure that we would not be a financial burden to the U.S. if we were allowed entry.
For ten years, we lived in constant fear of violence/death. My father had been part of the previous political regime and his life was in peril always. He was imprisoned for quite a while and the mental torture he endured was something that haunted him severely to his dying day (i.e., in jail his friends were executed by firing squad daily and my father could see them being taken away and then shots being fired and they'd never return. He lived every single moment in that jail wondering when/if his turn would come next). Fortunately, my father had some good friends that had some pull with the Communist Party and he survived. But even after his release he was forced to go to "camp" for 3 or 4 months at a time to work the farms for free, of course. So yes, those seeking political/religious asylum should receive special consideration.
There are very good reasons why all immigrants should go through the rigorous screening process (diseases, criminal records, and to ensure that they can and will be able to support themselves if allowed entry. We have enough people in this country already living on welfare, and we DO NOT NEED ANY MORE).
Yes, I know most of these illegal immigrants are dirt poor in their countries and are seeking a better way of life but the bottom line is why should that be America's problem to solve? These people are not being persecuted by their government because they're poor. Their OWN government should be forced to help them.
After all the help America offers the entire world we are constantly being criticized/vilified and told to mind our own business, butt out. However, when they need money, food, etc., what country is the first to be called upon?
I say, let's take care of our own, now and stop trying to mother the world.
Sorry, I can see this turning ugly lol.

I am next to you Petite,
and God Bless you and your family for all of your struggles.
We need to build a generation of intelligent, considerate citizens now so that maybe, someday, they will solve the worlds problems. In the meantime, other countries should take care of their own problems.
For example...I lived in a building that was populated by many Bengali (Bangladesh) families who came here seeking political asylum in fear of Saddam AFTER Desert Storm. These families had many names in single units and most of the wives lied about where their husbands were so that they could received MORE welfare benefits for themselves. Tehy got MEDICAL, FOOD STAMPS, and CASH BENEFITS every month. Meanwhile their HUSBANDS who actually lived with them but had different intricate Arabic names were working at various establishments making modest wages but HEY when you are on the dole and your rent is being paid courtesy of the US and you have no medical expenses to pay out of pocket for and you don't pay for food that type of lifestyle is 1,000,000 times better than the hellhole you ran from in Bangladesh. Guess what...the majority of the families that lived in my building are now HOMEOWNERS in the Bronx. WHAT THE FUCK??!!!!! I cannot even afford to own a home in the Bronx, yet these MF's came her cheated the system and now THEY are really living the AMerican Dream while I have to live in a Co-Op that is supervised by the State and I cannot even have a f(&cking dog? I have lived here all my life, paid taxes, never cheated the system and people come here under "asylum" from other countries dirt poor and become HOMEOWNERS before me? Its bullshit. The money we spend on helping everyone else could be used on our own POOR, our own CHILDREN. ANd for the sake of Jesus, CHEATING should never be an option "asylum" or not.
WHat about slavery reparations...I guess the liberals forget about that huh?
As Public Enemy said... SHUT EM DOWN.

Here are the security questions raised by Apple Pay
"With this announcement, Apple validates the data-centric security model, and shines a spotlight on the need for the payment world to move on from vulnerable static credit-card numbers and magnetic stripes to protected versions of data — tokenized payments," Mark Bower, vice president of product management for Voltage Security, said.
However, if Apple Pay and other similar services are widely adopted, then hackers are expect to shift their attention to online retailers accepting credit card numbers from customers via computers or mobile devices.
"It will probably reduce overall fraud, but online fraud will increase," Alisdair Faulker, chief products officer at ThreatMetrix, said. "That's something to be aware of. There will be winners and losers."

NBA quotables: Andre Iguodala and Doc Rivers on blowout game
March 10, 2012
Barry Stavro
Sixers All-Star forward Andre Iguodala reflected on the pressures of the pro game: "I think it weighs on any basketball player when they are not playing and they think they should be playing," he said. "Some guys, they go to a vice or they go to something that not only hinders their game but it hinders their health overall. Guys can drink; guys can go to drugs. That's the part of the league that people don't see. " After Philadelphia blew past Boston, 103-71, Celtics Coach Doc Rivers was asked about the 76ers' showboating: "If I was a player and I was in and I had a 40-point lead, and I could get a dunk, I'm getting a dunk.
NBA deal's many hoops
November 29, 2011
The National Basketball Assn. appears poised to end its five-month lockout, and a new labor agreement can't come soon enough for the thousands of idled workers who don't have a seat at the negotiating table. Those include the employees and entrepreneurs who make a living inside and around the arenas, as well as the restaurants, hotels and souvenir shops that cater to the surge of fans on game days. For everyone else, the announcement of a tentative deal is a mixed blessing.
Lakers' Derek Fisher is up to the challenge as union president
September 16, 2011
Bill Plaschke
He sounded like a coach. He sounded like a statesman. But more than anything, Derek Fisher sounded like he was dribbling the ball up the court against the Boston Celtics in the 2010 Finals, daring anybody to step in his path. "There have been moments when it's been draining," he said, his voice rising. "But it's not draining me of my overall energy and passion for playing this game I love to play. " Fisher may currently have the worst sports job in America, but it's exactly where he belongs, the Lakers' soul now serving as the locked-out NBA union's spine.
The Greatness Society: Talents who transcended the game
July 9, 2011
By Douglas Farmer and Matt Stevens
BASKETBALL GUARDS BOB COUSY (1950-63, '70) Defined the point guard position and helped shape the Boston Celtics' dynasty. His teams won six NBA titles and he was league MVP in 1957, one of only four point guards to earn that award. OSCAR ROBERTSON (1960-74) He was Magic Johnson before Magic Johnson, a tall and physical point guard who was also an exceptional scorer, defender and rebounder. JERRY WEST (1960-74) Was to Robertson what Larry Bird was to Magic Johnson.
Former Long Beach State player Glenn McDonald's NBA career was brief, but it had one shining moment
June 5, 2011
Jerry Crowe
Glenn McDonald was an unlikely candidate for a pivotal role in perhaps the greatest game in NBA history. The former Jefferson High and Long Beach State star's NBA career consisted almost entirely of two mostly undistinguished seasons with the Boston Celtics, after which he all but vanished in the minds of U.S. professional basketball fans. His best seasons were spent overseas far from the NBA limelight — in Sweden and the Philippines. But when fate dropped McDonald into the middle of an epic struggle in 1976, he was equal to the task, scoring six of the Celtics' last 10 points in an unforgettable 128-126 triple-overtime victory over the Phoenix Suns in the NBA Finals.
It's almost curtains for the NBA in Sacramento
April 9, 2011
By Mark Heisler
Parting is such sweet sorrow, even in cow towns. Talk about eras ending. Wednesday's Lakers game in Sacramento may be the NBA's last there … and Phil Jackson's last in a regular season anywhere. Unfortunately, Jackson won't get to say goodbye to the fans he called semi-civilized redneck barbarians, prompting them to go home and get their cowbells. Jackson has since called a move to Anaheim "ridiculous" and said he'll miss the rowdy atmosphere, so even if owners Joe and Gavin Maloof offered him their coaching job in 2005, they're skipping a farewell ceremony.
For Latino basketball fans, 'Lakers' is a magic word in any language
February 15, 2011
By Kevin Baxter
The Lakers just scored a slam dunk in the Latino market. On Monday the team announced a 20-year agreement with Time Warner Cable to create the nation's first Spanish-language regional sports network, with the Lakers as its centerpiece, starting with the 2012-13 season. The groundbreaking partnership is just the latest in a series of efforts by the Lakers and the NBA as they reach out to the fastest-growing segment of the U.S. population. "If you're not able to connect with [Latinos]
Defense is Lakers' downfall in loss to the Celtics
February 9, 2011
By Broderick Turner
Kobe Bryant sat in his chair wearing a black robe, his feet in a bucket of ice, his answers to every question curt, yet straightforward and clear. None of his answers were more succinct than when Bryant was asked to grade the Lakers' defense against the Boston Celtics during Sunday's 109-96 defeat at Staples Center. "F," Bryant said. Why? "Well, we didn't execute well," Bryant said. "We blew too many assignments. " Enough to allow the Celtics to rip holes in the Lakers' up-and-down defense.

Well boys and gals, here it is, the remix that got me into this business. This is "War of the Lily/Lucy's War", a remix of "Lilium" from the drama/psychological anime "Elfen Lied". I first started this remix during the Chirstmas season of 2009 after I had finish reading the Elfen Lied manga. The struggle and pain of Lucy and the Diclonious inspired me to this arrangement.
When I was brainstorming what should I do with this remix, I was reflecting on how Lucy fought for so many years in her life. Every day was a battle for her in the war between the Humans and the Diclonious. Lucy was this general leading her brave soldiers in the face of merciless defeat. With that vision in mind, I decided my remix of Lilium would be a powerful, stern, orchestra style mix.
Of course, your first remix aren't perfect and I actually do consider this remix one of my worst. Not saying it was horrible done but I know I could had done better. Heck, there's even a huge gap that was nothing but kettledrums and a snare-line towards the end of this remix!
Anyways, I hope you'll enjoy my very first remix. It truly open a door in composing and remixing music for me!

Gordon lifts Dodgers over Padres in extrasApr 8, 2012 - 6:10 AM San Diego, CA (Sports Network) - Dee Gordon went 3-for-4 and knocked in the go-ahead run in the 11th inning as the Los Angeles Dodgers snuck past the San Diego Padres, 6-5, in the third test of a four-game series.
Gordon also scored twice and stole three bases for the Dodgers, who have started the year with three straight victories for the first time since 1999.
A.J. Ellis went 2-for-3 with a solo homer for Los Angeles. Andre Ethier and Matt Kemp each drove in two runs.
"This was a big win for us. It kind of showed a different way that we can win games and a lot of guys stepped up," said Ellis. "It was just a really good team win."
Chris Capuano got the start for LA and gave up four runs on two hits and five walks over 4 2/3 innings. Todd Coffey (1-0) pitched a scoreless 10th to pick up his first win in a Dodgers uniform.
Chase Headley, Jesus Guzman, Nick Hundley and Orlando Hudson all knocked in a run for the Padres, who are off to an 0-3 start for the first time since 2003.
San Diego starter Dustin Moseley allowed five runs on five hits in five full frames. Anthony Bass (0-1) gave up one run on two hits in two innings of relief to take the loss.
Bass stayed on the mound for San Diego after tossing a scoreless 10th. Ellis led off the 11th with a single, moved to second on a sacrifice bunt and crossed the plate on Gordon's single to right for a 6-5 lead.
Javy Guerra stranded a runner on second in the home 11th to pick up his second save of the season.
"We just couldn't break through. After we scored the five runs, we just couldn't mount any pressure on their bullpen," Padres manager Bud Black said.
The Dodgers scored five runs over the first four innings to jump out to an early lead. Gordon started the game with a single, stole second, moved to third on Mark Ellis' groundout and scored on Kemp's sacrifice fly.
Los Angeles tacked on three more runs in the third. With two outs, Gordon got things started with a walk. Mark Ellis also walked before Kemp hit an RBI single to center. Ethier added a two-run double to right-center field.
A.J. Ellis' solo homer to left in the fourth made it a 5-0 game.
But San Diego got all five runs back in the fifth. With one out, Jason Bartlett singled and pinch-hitter Kyle Blanks walked. After Cameron Maybin grounded into a fielder's choice, Chris Denorfia walked to load the bases. Headley also walked to force in a run. Jamey Wright then came in from the bullpen.
But Wright also failed to find the strike zone. He walked Guzman and Hundley to force in two more runs. Scott Elbert took over on the mound next and threw a wild pitch that allowed another run to score. Yonder Alonso was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Hudson followed with an RBI single to left to make it 5-5. Hundley was tagged out between third and home to end the frame.
Game Notes
Capuano signed with the Dodgers this offseason after spending last year with the New York Mets. Capuano went 11-12 a year ago with a 4.55 earned run average in 33 games (31 starts)...Moseley battled a pair of shoulder dislocations last season before shutting it down in late July to have surgery. He was only 3-10 last season, but run support was a problem, as he pitched to a career-best 3.30 ERA.

59. Suthora atrisuperciliaris.
The Black-browed Crow-Tit.
Chleuasicus ruficeps, var. atrosuperciliaris, Godw.-Aust. P. A. S. B. 1877, p. 147; Hume, S. F. v, p. 499; Godw.-Aust. J. A. S. B. xlvii, pt. ii, p. 15. Chleuasicus ruficeps, Bl. apud Anders. Yunnan Exped., Aves, p. 638, pl. xlvii, fig. 2.
Coloration. " Bright ferruginous on the head, same colour, paler, on the nape and ear-coverts ; back and wings pale olive-brown ; quills tinged rufous ; tail brown; a narrow black streak over the eye; beneath dull white with an earthy tinge. Legs dark plumbeous.
" Length about 6 ; wing 2.85; tail 3.3 ; tarsus 0.90; bill at front 0.43 inches.
" Larger than Ch. ruficeps and not so white below." (Godwin-Austen.)
Distribution. Discovered at Sadiya, Upper Assam ; and procured at Ponsee, on the borders of Western China, by Anderson.
This species appears to me to be fairly distinct from S. ruficeps, and to be its eastern representative. I have examined four specimens of the Sikhim bird and find that in none of them is there more than a faint duskiness over the eye; in no case is there anything approaching the black shown on Anderson's plate of S. atrisuperciliaris. Hume's suggestion that this latter is the male and S. ruficeps the female is, I think, untenable in the face of the fact that all the other species of this family have the two sexes alike.*

Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni on Saturday night canceled her planned visit to Qatar.
Livni was expected to meet with Qatari officials on Sunday, but was then informed that the meeting would include two Hamas Parliament members.
The Foreign Ministry said in a statement that as long as Israel was pressuring the international community not to hold talks with Hamas, an Israeli minister could not be expected to participate in a meeting of this nature.
Livni received the invitation to attend the conference earlier this week. The trip would have made her the highest-ranking Israeli official to visit Qatar since Shimon Peres opened up the Israeli trade office in Doha when he was prime minister in 1996.
Although it was the UN, rather than the Qataris, who extended the invitation, Livni would likely have met with Qatari leaders while she was there.
Qatar has been involved in recent negotiations for the release of kidnapped IDF soldier Cpl. Gilad Shalit.

History and Origin of the Belgian Draft Horse Breed
by Draft Horse Pictures
History shows that Belgians are direct lineal descendants of the "Great Horse" of medieval times. The Belgian, as the name implies, is native to the country of Belgium. This little country is blessed with fertile soil and abundant rainfall, providing the thrifty farmers of Belgium with the excellent pastures and the hay and grain necessary to develop a heavy, powerful breed of horse.
Belgium lies in the very center of that area of Western Europe that gave rise to the large black horses known as Flemish horses and referred to as the "Great Horses" by medieval writers. They are the horses that carried armored knights into battle. Such horses were known to exist in that part of Europe in the time of Caesar. They provided the genetic material from which nearly all the modern draft breeds are fashioned.
Draft Horse Pictures
The Resurgence of the Draft Horse by Draft Horse Pictures
In the US today, there are more Belgians than all other draft breeds combined. Looking at the following reasons will explain the resurgence in draft horse fortunes, and the reasons for the remarkable success of the Belgian in particular. 1. A growing ecological awareness that some of the tools and methods of modern agriculture were destructive, causing many to seek alternatives, among which is the draft horse as a source of power 2. An economic crunch that makes home grown power, that runs on home grown fuel, which in turn enriches the soil in the form of manure, reproduces itself plus provides a surplus for sale, and appreciates rather than depreciates for the first half of its life, look better and better. 3. Their beauty. The draft horse at his best is a spectacular beast. Once booted out at some fairs for being behind the times, they are now welcomed back as crowd pleasers. More increasingly big commercial firms are also looking to the Belgian hitch as an advertising vehicle. 4. Nostalgia plays a role, albeit a minor one. Increasing numbers of horse- minded people are finding their pleasure horse in the form of a team of Belgians. Their good disposition and willingness to work make them great favorites on some of the small part-time "sundowner and weekender" type farms that continue to increase in number.
Why the Belgian Success by Draft Horse Pictures
The changes made by American breeders have developed a horse with far more style, particular in the head and neck, with more slope to both shoulder and pastern, and the good clean, flat bone that goes hand in hand with such qualities. The modern Belgian is still a great worker, and has become an excellent wagon horse. The fact that the Belgians are equally effective in pulling competition as in a hitch competition says much for the breed. Along with these changes in conformation has come a color change. The original imports came in many color coats with a predominance of bay. There were also roans, chestnut-sorrels and even a few grays. There was no particular color at the onset.
The fact that Belgians are by far the most numerous of all draft breeds in this country, plus the fact that they are much a one-color breed, makes it easier to mate a horse when needed and offers owners a much bigger market when they wish to sell.
The Belgian usually exceeds 16 hands in height and very often exceeds 18 hands. It is a docile horse and a willing worker. The American Belgian has a relatively large head and short, feathered, muscular legs and large quarters. The feet are large and have minimum feather. In America, its color is usually chestnut or roan with white or blonde mane, tail and points wich can be seen in most Draft Horse Pictures. Its weight averages between 1800 and 2000 pounds; some stallions reach 2400.

American Cream Draft Horse Pictures
History and Origin of the Breed
The American Cream is the only draft breed to originate in the United States. The breed descended from a draft type mare with an outstanding cream color. 'Old Granny' (the first registered American Cream) appeared at a farm auction in Story County, Iowa in 1911. Her foaling date has been placed between 1900 and 1905. She was purchased by a well-known stock dealer, Harry Lakin, and began to foal several cream colored colts on the Lakin farm, all of which sold for above average prices. Eric Christian, a veterinarian in the area, became attracted to one of Granny's stallions and persuaded the Nelson Bros. of Jewell, Iowa to keep the colt. Nelson's Buck is regarded as the progenitor of the breed. He was kept as a stallion and sired several cream offspring but Yancy, a cream colt out of black Percheron mare would be his only registered get. Yancy would go on to sire Knox 1st in 1926 out of a bay grade Shire mare. Knox 1st would go on to sire the most influential stallion to the American Cream, Silver Lace.
Breed Characteristics
The ideal American Cream is a medium cream color with white mane and tail, pink skin and amber eyes. Some white markings are also very desirable. Pink skin is the determining factor in securing this rich cream color. Dark-skinned Creams often do not have a satisfactory color. Further when mated with other Creams, they generally produce too light or nearly white offspring. Therefore, the most sought after strain of American Creams has always carried the pink skin trait as can be seen in many Draft Horse Pictures. These vary but little in color throughout the year and the white markings contrast beautifully with their rich cream color. The amber eyes are also an unusual and distinguishing trait of the American Creams. The colts are foaled with nearly white eyes. In a short time they begin to darken and by maturity have turned to an amber color.

Arabian Horses

From the ancient deserts of the Middle East evolved the oldest known breed of riding horse, the Arabian. Now one of the most popular breeds in America, the Arabians' incredible energy, intelligence and gentle disposition allow riders to excel in most equine sports and activities. Today, Arabian horses spend as much time on the trail as they do at horse shows and other competitive events.
For thousands of years, Arabians lived among the desert tribes of the Arabian peninsula, bred by the Bedouins as war mounts for long treks and quick forays into enemy camps. In these harsh desert conditions evolved the Arabian with its large lung capacity and incredible endurance.
Historical figures like Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Alexander The Great and George Washington rode Arabians. Even today, one finds descendants from the earliest Arabian horses of antiquity. Then, a man's wealth was measured in his holdings of these fine animals. Given that the Arabian was the original source of quality and speed, and remains foremost in the fields of endurance and soundness, he still either directly or indirectly contributed to the formation of virtually all the modern breeds of horses.
The prophet Mohammed, in the seventh century AD, was instrumental in spreading the Arabian's influence around the world. He mandated that the Arabians' numbers be increased, as the horses would be crucial to the inevitable battles that would be required for his religious conquests. He also proclaimed that Allah had created the Arabian, and that those who treated the horse well would be rewarded in the afterlife. These incentives, coupled with the Koran's instruction that "no evil spirit will dare to enter a tent where there is a purebred horse," further spurred the breeding of the Arabian horse.
The severe climate required the nomads to share food and water, and sometimes even their tents with their arabian horses. As a result, Arabians developed a close affinity to man and a high intelligence.
Over the centuries, the Bedouin tribes zealously maintained the purity of the breed. Because of their limited resources, breeding practices were extremely selective. Such practices, which eventually helped the Arabian become a prized possession throughout the world, have led to the beautiful athletic breed we know today, which is marked by a distinctive dished profile; large, lustrous, wide-set eyes on a broad forehead; small, curved ears; and large, efficient nostrils.
Even today the purebred Arabian is virtually the same as that ridden in ancient Arabia. Arabians now display their athletic talents in a variety of disciplines from English to Western, with the Arabian positioned as the undisputed champion of endurance events.
If you're looking for a companion who'll be your partner in adventure or competition-and your friend for life-then an Arabian may be the horse for you.

The Versatile Arabian Horses
Historically, the Arabian was a warhorse capable of withstanding the extreme conditions of the Arabian Desert and covering long distances, while moving quickly in and out of battle. He was also a close companion of the desert Bedouins evolving a pleasant personality and an affinity for humans.
The traits that were bred into the Arabian through ancient times created a versatile horse that is not only a beautiful breed, but also one that excels at many activities. Considered the best breed for distances, the Arabian's superior endurance and stamina enable him to consistently win competitive trail and endurance rides.
The most popular activity with all horse owners is recreational riding-the Arabian horse is no exception. The loyal, willing nature of the Arabian breed suits itself as the perfect family horse. His affectionate personality also makes him a great horse for children.
In the show ring the Arabian is exceptional in English and Western pleasure competition. The Arabian is well known for his balance and agility. Combined with his high intelligence and skillful footwork, he is more than capable in driving and reining events. For speed, agility, and gracefulness, you'll want an Arabian. Arabians compete in more than 400 All Arabian shows as well as in numerous open shows around the U.S. and Canada.
The Arabian, as the original racehorse, is becoming more and more popular competing at racetracks throughout the country. Arabians race distances similar to Thoroughbreds, with more than 700 all-Arabian races held throughout the U.S. annually.
Although the most beautiful of all riding breeds, the Arabian is not just a pretty horse. He is an all-around family horse, show horse, competitive sport horse, and work horse.
Arabian Horses today
Historically Arabian horses have maintained a reputation as the horse of beauty, intelligence, courage, endurance, and romance. Because he was bred and reared in close contact with man from the earliest records, and existing in mutual inter-dependence, he developed an unequaled ability to bond with humans. Indeed, his intelligence has been celebrated in thousands of anecdotes. He is gentle, affectionate, and familiar, almost to the point of being troublesome. Foals, for example, have no fear of man, and are usually indifferent to sudden noises. The Arabian gentleness and tractability, while originally the effect of education, is now inherited, and is observed in foals bred in a foreign environment.
Because the Arab often engaged in a form of desert warfare known as "Ghazu," a form of quick mounted foray upon his neighbors, his life and welfare depended upon the endurance and speed of his Arabian horse. These stellar qualities of the Arabian horse were also the natural result of a good original stock, which by intensive breeding in a favorable environment had maintained its purity. His blood is commanding to a remarkable degree, and invariably dominates all the breeds to which it is introduced and contributes its own superior qualities to them.
When imported to England, the Arabian horse became the progenitor of the Thoroughbred. In Russia, the blood of the Arabian horse contributed largely to the development of the Orloff Trotter. In France, the animal helped make the famous Percheron. And in America, again it was the Arabian horse, which became the progenitor of the Morgan and through the English Thoroughbred, to make the Trotter.
As the oldest of all the light breeds and foundation stock of most, the Arabian is unique. The Arabian breed is different in that it does not exist as a result of selective breeding, as were other modern light breeds, where it was necessary to establish a registry prior to the development of the breed, but was a breed that had been recognized for thousands of years and had been maintained and cherished in its purity over those years as much as is humanly possible.
The high intelligence, trainability, gentle disposition and stamina of the Arabian enable it to excel at a wide variety of activities popular today. Arabians are excellent on the trail as well as in the show ring. Show classes in English and western pleasure, cutting and reining, even jumping and dressage provide opportunities for fun and enjoyment at both all-Arabian events and open breed shows alike. As an endurance horse, the Arabian has no equal. The top prizes at endurance events almost always go to riders of Arabians. Arabian racing is another sport becoming more and more popular in recent years. In the past, considered the "Sport of Kings," Arabian racing is now enjoyed by racing enthusiasts at tracks across the country. In addition, the Arabians' Bedouin heritage is evident in their unequaled ability to bond with humans, making them the perfect horse for family members of all ages.
With today's prices comparable with other popular breeds, excellent Arabian horses are now accessible to a broad base of horse enthusiasts. And, with more living Arabian horses in the United States than in all the other countries in the world combined, America has some of the best horses and breeding farms from which to choose.

There are two ways to look at the Caps' 5-4 overtime loss Sunday to the Detroit Red Wings. On the one hand, they played a disastrous second period in which Detroit scored three times to take a 4-1 lead. Washington took two penalties and managed only two shots on goal in those 20 minutes. On the other hand, the Caps battle back from a three-goal deficit to tie the game in the third period and steal away a point that looked like it was well out of reach. It showed resiliency and determination. Getting one point is a moral victory of sorts after it looked as if they were going to walk away with the regulation loss.
After the game, however, it was clear the Caps did not want to see the positives of the loss.
"We've got to change our starts," Nicklas Backstrom said. "We've got to be able to put together 60 minutes almost night in, night out. Can't just play good 20, play bad for 60. It's tough like that."
When he met with the media following the game, Barry Trotz was asked if he was angry about the second period or happy about battling back to earn a point. He did not hesitate with his answer.
"Angry about the second period," he said.
The Caps absolutely should be angry over what happened on Sunday. In the final game before a four-game road trip, Washington managed only a point against Detroit team that ranks fourth in the Atlantic Division and is well outside the playoff race. Heading into Sunday's game, the Red Wings had lost three straight including a 7-6 overtime loss to the New York Islanders after allowing the Islanders five goals in the third period.
This is a game the Caps should have won, but they gave it away in the second period and they knew it.
"That was the worst [period] of the year by far," Brett Connolly said of the middle frame. "Guys were not happy in between periods."
"We got a point maybe we didn't deserve," Trotz said. "We took a period off."
The anger reflects a team with lofty goals and expectations of the season.
There is no such thing as a moral victory in professional sports. You win or you lose, period. But, depending on context, some teams will find more positives in a loss than others.
If the Arizona Coyotes had lost Sunday's game, chances are they would have stressed the comeback a bit more than what happened in the second period.
Washington, however, is not Arizona. This is a team fighting to remain in first place of the Metropolitan Division and thinking about how they can be successful in the playoffs. Battling back from a 4-1 deficit to lose in overtime is still a loss to them and not something to be satisfied with.
"Just can't start like that," Brett Connolly said. "We can't be coming back three goals. They definitely deserved to win and that's it."
