Understanding both sides of the Glass/Buchnevich debateApril 8, 2017, by
With the playoffs around the corner, much of the focus for the Rangers is on Alain Vigneault's lineup choices. Much of the lineup is set. We know 11 of the 12 forwards. We know all six defensemen. But it's that 12th forward that is drawing a lot of attention, and it's an emotional topic for a lot of people.
Tanner Glass is the old-school, gritty hockey player that "stands up for teammates and deters others." While we've seen others on the roster (Kreider, Vesey, Smith) step up for others, the focus is always on Glass because he represents a dying breed of hockey players. What he represents is the "blue collar" player. The one who throws his body around and gets in on the forecheck.
On the other side of the coin is Pavel Buchnevich. Buch is the prized rookie with seemingly unlimited skill. His production in the KHL and in his rookie season puts him on par with Evgeny Kuznetsov. That's one helluva comparison and career trajectory. Now while it's unlikely he gets to that level –he doesn't get to play with Alex Ovechkin on a nightly basis– he can still come in under that and be a great player for the Rangers.
The school of thought here seems to have the fanbase divided into two camps. The first camp is to play Glass. The Rangers got physically abused by the Habs in the last matchup, and that is fresh in everyone's minds. Those who prefer the old school style of hockey think that Glass is a necessary cog for the Rangers. He will hit people, forecheck, and go to the net. And yes, all of this is true. Plus, by most accounts, he's a good locker room guy.
The second camp is the play Buchnevich camp. The NHL has moved to a speed and skill game, and the most successful teams this year (and last year's Cup champion) were loaded with speed and skill. Buchnevich offers an immense amount of skill on the fourth line, something that provides matchup nightmares for the opposition. This is especially true of Montreal, a team that lacks depth. Plus, for the long-term future of the club, Buch's development is critical.
There are obvious drawbacks to both camps as well. Glass, while offering that physical presence, doesn't do much else. He's not good with the puck and has minimal skill. He's also not a good penalty killer and doesn't play on the powerplay. Buchnevich is still a rookie and prone to mental mistakes. The kid hasn't even been able to legally buy a beer in the States for a year yet. In the playoffs, every mistake can wind up in the back of your net.
If you've been reading this blog, then you know where I sit on this discussion. I think playing Buchnevich has far more value, both short term and long term, than playing Glass. I would certainly be able to lean more towards Glass if he contributed more than just a physical presence. In today's NHL, a player needs to be more than one-dimensional. Even the best scorers can fake it in their own end.
The reality of the situation is that we are going to see both play this series. If Buchnevich gets Game One, and the Rangers get outplayed physically, we will see Glass. If Glass plays Game One and the Rangers can't get anything going offensively, we will see Buchnevich. This roster decision, like life, lives in the grey area."Understanding both sides of the Glass/Buchnevich debate",

I guess the sad truth is that neither of the 2 will help the Rangers getting farer is the 2nd round. I would play both and would let Puempel sit.
If Glass gets to play at all, it will be the first game of the series, just as a show of force, after the embarrassing display the last time we played the Canadians. Buch will play more for sure, he has the skill set that Glass just lacks!!!!!
I think we have to play Glass at least the first game to show we will use him so that hopefully the habs dont get too comfortable. I hope buch gets stronger this summer because he needs it for sure. I think he'll be good eventually. They all develop at different paces
Kreider Stepan Zuccarello
Nash Zibanejad Buchnevich
Grabner Hayes Miller
Vesey Lindberg Fast
Those are our top 12. Maybe Buchnevich would be a no brainer, if he ever got a chance to just play and build chemistry with a line. He's better than Vesey, let alone Tanner Glass
I would not play glass in the first game or ever. If we lose the game one to nothing it is because we went there without all our offense. When we give it our all and fail, at least we play all our best players, and not all the blame goes to the coach . If we give it our all and fail, and we did not put our best players, we failed because of the coach.
It appears that by playing Glass, AV is admitting that there is a need for an 'enforcer'……Interesting……
My only problem with playing glass is that if we needed an ' enforcer' we would have been way better off from a talent standpoint to have kept McIlrath as a seventh defenseman since there really was NO DROPOFF between McIlrath and girardi or klein or holden of kampher or clrendening….and he certainly was a capable defenseman more so than glass being a capable forward…..
Personally if we really need a glass in the lineup, I would move miller or nash to center and sit Stepan , not buchnevich……buch is a threat to score, goes into corners and is physical…….
You're going to sit the 3rd leading scorer on this team in order to play Buch. The guy who "is a threat to score" yet has 2 goals and a whopping 6 points since the start of 2017?
You're a genius.
Spozo, Rich S must be smoking some good stuff , maybe we can give it the players before each game and watch them fly with the pigs that can't fly . WOW LGR
Rich, I was with you as far as your first paragraph. But I wouldn't sit Step for Buch. Buch still must develop and adjust to the NA game.
Rich, you are going WAY off the rails again.
McIlrath couldn't crack the lineups of two non-playoff teams this year. Detroit is done. If they were serious about the kid, wouldn't they call him up now and let him play in the NHL to see what they've got there?
You are seeing him through your mind's eye and not the way there different NHL coaches, three different GMs, and all 30 NHL clubs see him. The idea that a marginal minor leaguer would be making a difference is going WAY off the deep end.
But even further off the deep end…..bench Stepan???? Now???? You do realize that Stepan's line has been the Rangers BEST line down the stretch. You also must realize that Miller has been mediocre at best for the last 25 games or so. There is no coach anywhere that would do what you are suggesting.
This summer and next season? Clean slate for any evaluations on McIlrath, Stepan and Miller. But not now.
I think its more about the hustle that AV is showing the guys in Glass then the 'enforcer' effect.
Buch looks like he is half asleep most of the time, he barely shows the hustle that Glass and others in the league show.
He may have had numbers on par with Kuznetsov, but at his current heart rate, which seems at times to be that of a fat guy laying down, he will never get to the level his comrade is reaching even if he is playing with the Gr8 8.
I think Buch is shot from all the new things happening in his life and it is going to take him time to get it all together… JT, CK, KH have all seen their rookie and sophomore years go past and they improved nicely under AV. I think Buch will get into his stride… but Glass gets into the forecheck as hard as any other player we have on the ice right now… its an important part of the game… honestly what options does AV have to get a body crashing behind the goal line on the forecheck past Glass?
Sit Buchnevich for Glass; playing a guy that didn't make the team out of camp for good reasons, over a player that did make the team out of camp for good reasons is a rhetorical question, no?
Glass all day long. Bush needs to put on 15lbs of muscle to be ready for the playoff grind.. Tanner Glass brings experience and toughness needed for the playoff run.
Sorry I didnt have a chance to respond to your post the other day. You and Rich (I think it was Rich) made a very compelling argument about Montreal's response to the Flyers in Game 1 of the 1976 SCF.
I only have a vague memory of that season. I was so emotionally distraught after the Rangers had released Eddie and then traded away Park and Ratelle! That plus the fact that the Rangers were horrible and unwatchable that I pretty much tuned out hockey that year. And by the time the SC Playoff came along, starved for some sports hope, I was all in on the early stages of the very enjoyable 1976 future AL Champion Yankees! 🙂
So, i went back and did some digging, and I found this article.
I only had time for a cursory read, but my impression–
1) The big takeaway on what happened in that series is the fact that the Flyers were severely compromised due to injury. No Bernie Parent, who, in the case of the Rangers two years earlier, was THE big reason why the Flyers won that series. No Rick MacLeish. And earlier in the season, they had traded away Ed Van Impe. Those were HUGE losses.
2) There is no specific reference that I saw to the fight you mentioned involving Robinson and Schultz, which you cited as a turning point moment.
3) To be fair to your point, there's no question that the Habs were determined to match the Flyers physicality in that series..no doubt. And Robinson was a part of that.
4) But the flip side to this is, to address your point about adding a Fotiu-type player, it doesnt appear that Bowman did that at all. They doubled down on skill. That was the beginning of the last great Montreal dynasty. And they ruled the hockey world for four years because of their elite skill, not because of their physicality. Not saying they couldn't play physical, but it was their elite, future HOF talent that made the difference.
5) Also, Montreal had two years to figure out how to beat the Bullies. No team had an answer for it. Maybe if the Rangers of 1974 had played the Flyers in 1976, by then they would have figured it out. And again, the Rangers PP in 1974 was totally shutdown by Parent. If Parent had been hurt in 1974, I have no doubt the Rangers win that series easily, Rolfe vs Schultz not withstanding.
Look, there is no doubt that what you and Rich have said is true–physicality matters. I don't disagree with that. But I think the level of importance you place on it is WAY, WAY over blown, especially in this day and age. The Broad Street Bullies would have no chance to succeed in this day and age. None. Nick Fotiu would barely be an AHL player today, if that. Goons are going the way of the dinosaur. There was great skill level in the game then and now, but the speed in today's game is incredible. Whenever I look at old game films from that era, games were played in slow-motion compared to the way it's played today.
So do you need to play physical today to win in modern NHL hockey, absolutely. Do you need an "enforcer" to send "messages", absolutely not.
Would Nick Fotiu have made a difference in 1972, 1974 or if he had played more in 1979? Highly doubt it. We lost in 1972 because they had Orr and we didn't (and Ratelle was injured). We lost in 1974 because our PP couldn't cash in on a future HOF goalie. And we lost to a far, far better dynastic team in 1979 because they were loaded with HOFers, and JD, who had been on a magical run, hurt his knee in Game One. Magic gone. Rangers done.
Good debate my friend!
Eddie – small potatoes, but we got waxed by the Reds in 1976. It still hurts! 1977 & 1978 were championship years.
We did, but I LOVED that season. I was there when Chambliss hit the pennant winning homer. I ran on the field and I still have the stadium dirt in a hefty bag, along with the dirt from the next year after the Reggie 3-HR game! 🙂
Nice! I still can't get Jim Mason's WS plate appearances out of my head!
I just responded with an article attachment that is awaiting moderation. You should get to see it soon.
Great debate my friend!
As I've said before, in an ideal world, I would play Buch over Glass. No question. In the modern NHL, skill trumps size.
However, this is not an ideal world for the Rangers at the moment. The fact is, Buch just hasn't been very good for most of the season since he came back from his back injury. He may not be physically or even mentally up to this right now. I think he is having a lot of difficulty adjusting to the NHL game, which is understandable. To me, like Vesey, he's probably a project that's another year away yet.
To quote Herb Brooks (at least the movie version of Herb Brooks), "I'm not looking for the best players, I'm looking for the right ones". That MUST be AV's only consideration. Growing and giving Buch "experience" is irrelevant at the moment. What Glass lacks in raw talent he more than makes up for in hockey smarts and all-out effort. There are intangibles he brings to the table that have value, Montreal does play a physical game now and Glass MAY be able to function well given the right line matchups. And, he has NHL playoff experience that Buch does not have. Indeed, the Rangers advanced deep into the playoffs beating the likes of Pit and Was two years ago with Glass in the lineup.
I have no problem at all if Glass plays over Buch. To me, it's largely irrelevant anyway. If the Rangers best players play up to their capabilities, they have a great chance to beat Montreal–with or without Glass. If they keep playing just average hockey, it won't matter anyway. The discussion of who is the 12F is just a bunch of noise to me.
Another point to consider. Are we sure the choice is simply Glass vs Buch? Vesey also looks like he is not ready to be a playoff contributor. I could see the choice coming down to Vesey, Buch and Glass. One loses the game of musical chairs.
Eddie please go back to the Carey Price / Sammy Vetanen blog. I look forward to your reply. The topic from me was on playoff toughness intimidation. 1976 Canadiens vs Flyers cup finals. Please respond.
Just did….awaiting moderation. You will see it soon.
Buchnevich, and other Rangers never had the skilled teammate that had their back, except for Krider, who hasn't used his strength and size as much as much as I'd like. I'm not sure what caused Buchnevich's back injury, though it would not surprise me he was out muscled in some fashion. With all do respect to his heart, Glass does not deter opponents' aggression, he reacts to it.
Here is why I would SIT Stepan for the playoffs…
17 goals in 85 playoff games, despite leading the team in minutes played
11 even strength goals in 85 playoff games despite leading in pp minutes played
a minus -5 in 85 playoff games
All this despite playing with the top wings each year and getting the most minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Despite this, if you watch the games HE STINKS….. I will take my chances with a young , more skilled, faster , way more potential Buch!!!!!
You would be fired immediately after Game 1, and Sather would go back behind the bench. NO NHL coach would do that. We can debate whether Stepan should be around after this summer. More than reasonable discussion and I'm more than open to that. But bench him now? That's crazy talk.
Stepan doesn't score enough goals for your liking. So let's sit him in favor of someone who has never played a playoff game and who scores at a lesser pace.
You're a joke
I am re posting this for you' sBozo'—maybe this time you can respond to the facts of Stepans playoff history, and if you are capable have an intelligent response BASED on facts!

Eddie has some interesting stats below this.
PS your favorite player is Dylan Mcilrath. Excuse me if I'm skeptical of your player evaluation.
Respectfully I must disagree again , here are the facts-time on ice under tortorella is actually slightly more than under Vinganult
2011—-20.30 min tortorella
2012—-19.07 min
2013—-22.30 min
2014—-19.47 min Vinauglt
2015—-19.31 min
2016—-17.11 min
Again, in 6 years of playoffs, 11 even strength goals in 85 games…..I will take my chances with Buch…..
Your stats are distorted. Stepan was not much of a factor in his younger days under Torts. With his significantly enhanced role under AV, he has 12-17-39 in 45 playoff games, which is far better than his regular season output. (And I will point out that in 2014, he was compromised in the final few games of the ECF and the whole SCF because of the jaw injury). He, along with Kreider, have been the Rangers best offensive post season weapons.
That's the guy you want to bench?
3E, Actually the stats show that stepan averaged more playing time with tortorella as coach
2011—-20.30 min tortorella
2012—-19.07 min
2013—-22.30 min
2014—-19.47 min Vinauglt
2015—-19.31 min
2016—-17.11 min
In his 6 playoff seasons and 85 games I can only remember 1 big goal he scored for us against the bruins…..IMHO he is a nice kid, but a non-factor in the playoffs — regular season as well. Certainly not a difference maker……
I wasn't referring to minutes played. Under Torts, he was not a significant playoff performer. Under AV, he has been. Not saying that has anything to do with Torts per se, just that by the time AV came on board, Stepan had matured as a player.
So now we are talking about BIG goals? Umm, I think you are forgetting about Game 7 OT two years ago vs the Caps. Goals don't come much bigger than that.
I agree, he is not a difference maker player. But the Rangers don't really have any other than Hank. Kreider could be. Nash could be. There are no elite forwards on this team. That's the reason we haven't been able to finish the deal.
But Step has been an extremely effective playoff point producer under AV. To bench him on the POSSIBILITY that an underwhelming rookie could do better? Sorry, no way.
BTW, how are your "untouchables" Miller and Hayes doing? I keep thinking they've been healthy scratches for all the times I've heard their names called in the last few weeks. Miller is reverting back to "bad Miller", as Brooksie now calls him. Proving as I've said about both of them. They are good (sometimes very good) players that are not difference makers at the moment. Here's a golden opportunity with guys out to prove you can take over a game. What have we gotten from those guys when the baton is passed to them? Nothing. Very alarming. And you want to elevate Miller to the 1C NOW????
Maybe Step should be traded before his NMC kicks in–that is reasonable. But the guys they should seriously consider dealing are one of Miller or Hayes (maybe Kreider) while it's still possible to get a big return. Our so-called untouchable stars are just not that good, sorry to say.
When I 'evaluate' players i look at several things–
1. Production and performance
2. speed and talent
3. upside
4. aggressive and physical makeup
Miller in his first 2 years has 6 more goals than stepan….who in fact has only scored over 20 goals twice in 7 seasons…….
Miller has 22 in each of his first two seasons[ again not playing the amount of minutes or pp minutes stepan does..
I would bet that in the next 5 years miller will score over 25 most of them….maybe 30+
Hayes is a closer comparison to stepan, having scored 17, 14 goals in his first two seasons….again in much less minutes than stepan..
He reminds me of a younger joe thornton who the bruins foolishly gave up on way too early in his career…
Personally , i think a player needs 3 or 4 years to show what he can do…
In 4 or 5 years if miller and hayes have not developed into 25+ goals and 60+ point seasons then i would consider trading them…not yet…
I cant argue trade of tony amonte, we won a cup….but look at rick middleton trade ……
Yup, I did forget about the goal against the caps…..But 2 big goals in 85 games is not getting it done.
And all that is totally reasonable…..except for two things.
1) Miller and/or Hayes MAY be top tier players down the road….but they are not at that level now. Stepan is the far more reliable player today. Long range upside and raw talent upside? No doubt it would be your Untouchables.
So if you are acknowledging that Miller/Hayes are still a few years away from hitting their peak, then how can you justify upgrading either of them and sit a proven veteran playoff performer at this time–especially considering how poorly both Miller and especially Hayes have played for the past 25 games?
2) If you wait 4-5 years to trade Miller and/or Hayes, and they aren't anything more than they are now, you wont get much for them. In Miller's case, rumors were strong that teams were very interested in him. Is someone willing to overpay? If so, I'm listening.
You mention the Middleton trade, but that was for a washed up veteran. I'm not advocating for that. The Amonte trade was one of those "one or two pieces away" deals you do when you are close. Better example was Alexei Kovalev. He was supposed to be the Russian Gretzky. His skill set was off the chart, and no doubt, he was a key contributor in 1994–as a important component piece player on a star studded team. But as those players left or aged, and more was expected out of Kovie, he was unable or unwilling to raise his game.
There were rumors that the Rangers were in talks with the Whalers to acquire the older but in his prime Brendan Shanahan. The Rangers, having traded so many young stars to win the Cup, passed on that. It was a huge mistake, and once they realized that Kovalev was an overgrown problem child that wasn't ever going to get it, they had to settle for a lesser return.
Miller and Hayes worry me. Both have had work ethic issues to various degrees–in short, maturity issues just like Kovalev. Do they TRULY want to become great players? Or is this inconsistency what we should expect to see for the foreseeable future? If the latter, should we look to deal while their values is at their highest?
The return would have to be significant, no doubt.
I admit I am an optimist…I see kredier, miller, buch and vesey as 'power forward' types contributing for the next ten years….
hayes, zib and grabner to a lesser extent but still capable of being game changers…..
excited , because i have never seen a better group [ potentially] of young rangers forwards in almost 50 years of watching…..
we lack a taveras, crosby, kopitar type star center , but overall love this talent….
Again, I agree with every word you just said, because those words speak to the future more so than the present. But in the here and now, well, all we have is hope and potential with those guys. They haven't arrived yet.
I'm more of a skeptic when it comes to young "untouchables". Maybe it was my years covering the team in the early 80s. I remember chatting with veterans like Hedberg and Espo telling me about the young "stud" forwards who would be Rangers stars for years to come–Murdoch, Maloney, Duguay and Sulliman…and then a couple of years later, add Pavelich to that. The bright young future star forwards that would make us perennial contenders for years to come.
Turned out they were not great players, but merely good players who had flashes of greatness, while the Islanders had great players like Bossy and Trottier, along with real good players like Gillies, Bourne and Nystrom.
Look at TB. They lose Stamkos and then Kucherov, a 23 year old star, accepts the challenge and puts the team on his back and has a spectacular year. Not good enough for a playoff spot this year, but you see my point. Kucherov became a great young star. Tarasenko as well. None of our guys are in that category.
Star power is essential to success. I just don't see any of the guys you mentioned ever getting to that level.
Good but not great players yield good but not great results. So, no, I'm not nearly as high on any of these guys as you are.
But hey, who's to say one or more won't catch fire starting next week? That can certainly happen and if it does, then we have a chance.
But this is what I don't get about you. I won't even argue about whether Stepan is a good player or not. You've clearly made up your mind and so have I. But you're going to sit him because he isn't a difference maker. Why does that mean Buch will perform better? What about his 2 goals and 6 total points in the last 3 months shows you that the Rangers would be a better team with Stepan in the press box and Buch playing?
Regardless of whatever stat you pull out about time on ice there is the fact that in the last 3 seasons, Stepan has 12 playoff goals and 29 points.
Exactly. And we've seen no evidence whatsoever that Buch can be a significant factor at this point. Zero. None. Heck, there's little evidence to suggest that Miller and Hayes can be relied on come playoff time. They just aren't that caliber of player–yet.
And why the focus on TOI I have no idea. That's not relevant to the discussion.
LIKE … very much in fact …. why did we loose the "Like" option again???
Glad to see a bit of perspective here.
If it's between Buch on the fourth line and Glass, I tend to think it's a pretty marginal call. The physical part of the game and especially the playoff game is not something to sneeze at. If this wasn't obvious, and it apparently is not to some, I'm not talking about fighting. Also, I didn't expect to say this, but the year in the AHL looks like it has done Glass some good. That line has not looked bad.
Buch is obviously a big part of our future but I'm not getting wound up if he doesn't play all the time right now.
By the way, I'm wholly unsure which way AV is going to go.
And I thought I was crazy!
Anyhow, Buch might be good in the future, the jury is still way, way out on that. But, he certainly hasn't been very good the last 20 games. He cannot retrieve a puck, cannot get it out of the zone along the boards and has stopped shooting. Other than that, he's fine.
Glass on the other hand is useless unless AV goes three lines and shortens the bench.
McIlraith has played his last NHL game, BTW.
Keith Yandle, whose name NEVER GETS MENTIONED anymore is teeing it up starting Monday at nearly 7 million a year. Thank God we don't have him for another 6 years.
"Keith Yandle, whose name NEVER GETS MENTIONED anymore is teeing it up starting Monday at nearly 7 million a year. Thank God we don't have him for another 6 years."
Yeah that didn't sound like a good idea from what I saw.
Buch is a young rookie. Loaded with potential. One dimensional! Glass is Physical-one dimensional. It doesn't matter but why would you place a soft inexperienced rookie in the first game in Montreal. He has not earned a thing. When he was taken out with a knee he didn't do anything. Some of these young guys need to stand up for themselves. Vesey has, Miller has. Hes not ready for prime time let alone the first game in the playoffs.
Most important – Glass is not hockey player, he is hitting figure skater….

It's new, but tried and true
By Laurie Dietrich 09/30/2004
Three-quarters of the graceful and surefooted cast that bring the premiere of William Jack Sibley's If You Loved Me to life at the Cameo Theatre.
You might not know 'If You Loved Me' but the characters will make you feel right at home
Not too long ago, I overheard some theater patrons complaining about a company's upcoming season. Their complaint was that they weren't familiar with most of the shows. The fact that this could be a cause for concern, rather than excited anticipation, makes me very sad, largely because I fear it's representative of a large portion of the local theater audience. If you've been infected with this particular antipathy, I'd like to offer the world premiere of local author and playwright William Jack Sibley's If You Loved Me, running through October 14 at the Theatre at CameoCenter, as a gentle antidote. The production, directed by Jerry Pilato for Actors Theatre of San Antonio, isn't avant-garde. It won't scandalize you with slang or ask you to accept an alternative format. It's a simple, straight-forward production of a good old-fashioned story. And it's excellent. The script, which was workshopped at the Tennessee Williams Playwright Festival in Key West, Florida, The New Dramatists in New York City, and The Attic Theater in Los Angeles, is smooth and mature. Sibley, an award-winning playwright and novelist, is hardly a neophyte, and his experience and confidence are on display in this unapologetically plot-driven work about love, loss, and family history with a regional twang.
If You Loved Me
8pm Fri, 7:30pm Sat, 2:30pm Sun
Through Oct 14
$15 adult, $11 senior, military, $8 student
Cameo Theatre
1123 E. Commerce
Pilato's cast (Rainya Shingledecker, Tim Waggoner, Belinda Harolds, and Marcus Daratt) is fortunate in that the playwright has given them very real, compelling characters to play. But the grace and sureness with which they inhabit those characters are their gifts to the production. The cast is so uniformly strong that to say Harolds' performance stands out in particular (and it does) is a serious compliment indeed. As Pauline Spears (both young and old), the spinster aunt, she expertly negotiates the tightrope between Southern stereotype and sincerity. Kudos to both the playwright and Harolds for making this character just familiar enough to engage us, without slipping into caricature. For a premiere production, If You Loved Me is remarkably polished. The second act could use a little tightening, and Daratt's character could use a little fleshing out, but with such minor flaws Pilato's stated goal of touring the show across Texas and possibly even pursuing an off-Broadway production seems well within reach. In a time when many theater seasons are dominated by museum pieces, when theater-going is often played as an elitist game of dramaturgy, of comparing the nuances of the latest interpretation to those of productions past, it's nice to be reminded why people used to go to the theater, back when it was a more mainstream entertainment: They went to meet new characters, and to hear their stories. They went to be sucked into a tale as it unfolded, to care about the people onstage and to wait with bated breath for what came next. You don't know this story. You don't know these characters. But you'll enjoy getting to know both. • By Laurie Dietrich

Spotlight on 'If You Loved Me' Web Posted: 09/30/2004 12:00 AM CDT
San Antonio Express-News
"If You Loved Me," getting its world premiere at the Cameo Theater, is a memory play set in a South Texas that's long gone. The action moves back and forth between the '70s and the '50s, looking at how the actions of a restless young woman continued to rattle cages after her death. Rainya Shingledecker (center) plays both Dee Dee Treadwell, a good ol' gal who thinks she knows precisely what she wants, and her mother Connie, who grew up wanting more from life than raising a child in a tiny Texas cow town would give her.

I did some brutal Functional Threshold to Maximum Aerobic Power intervals tonight, 5 of them, 30 seconds on and 2.5 minutes off, repeat 3 times.
Oh the pain.
They sucked. But they were very rewarding.
They occurred under a temperamentally cloudy sky with our crew fighting headlong into, or racing at our backs, a warm spring wind that had that kiss of promise that warm spring winds can have.
It whispered and then roared a declaration of renewal, rebirth, and of great things to come.

MS Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1
@AllOnTheBus- Would it still be getting an IP address for the ad-hoc network (even though it is in no way connected to my router or the internet)? Because I tried printing out the network configuration while it was connected to my computer over the ad-hoc network, but when I typed that (now different form the original 192.168.1.116) IP address into my browser, it couldn't find anything there.
And that's what I got out of ad-hoc networks too; they form their own network completely independent of any router. In fact, it seems that it's impossible to connect to more than one wireless network at all ad-hoc, wifi, or otherwise, unless you have multiple NIC cards. So it definitely functions independent of the router. Although I'm not clear on whether the machine that created the ad-hoc functions as the access point, or of all the devices take care of their own data routing. I think it's the latter, which would imply that the ad-hoc will remain active until the last device disconnects, regardless of whether the original device stay in it or not. Which I think makes sense.
Well, if I set the printer up on an ad-hoc instead of my normal wifi, then other computer would have to connect to that ad-hoc to use it. In theory, once they connect to the ad-hoc, the printer should accessible just like it normally would if it was hooked up to the same wifi network they were on instead. So if the ad-hoc had a passkey put on it, only people with access to the ad-hoc network (by having the passkey) would be able to print to it. So their computers could easily "see" the ad-hoc network, but without accessing it, they wouldn't be able to "see" the printer. I don't think I'd be able to independently allow or deny access to the printer once they're on the network, though. In fact, I'm not even sure how I would do that on a normal network... if you tell me how I'll try it out!
@DeaconFrost- Yeah, I thought it'd be a piece of cake too. Unfortunately, one of the few aspects of computing that I'm not overly familiar with is networking. Also, like I said, my network doesn't have a passkey, and I'm not the one in charge of it, so I can't set one up.
Actually, here's a screenshot of the printer's setup page:
Now, what has me confused is that I don't know if this is for setting up a network, or connecting to one, or both. For instance, so far I have managed to accidentally create an "hpsetup" ad-hoc network from the printer, purposely create a "Printer" ad-hoc network (which while my computer would connect to it, I couldn't figure out how to access the printer from that network) and purposely connecting to my wifi network. But I don't quite know how it decides whether to try to connect to an existing network with the information I give it, or whether to create one. I think that's the root of my confusion. How does it decide that? When I bought it, it didn't include any kind of user manual. If you could clarify this stuff for me, that'd be great!
I originally wanted to use an ad-hoc network because I could secure it with a password, unlike my wifi network.

Oil pump assemblies have changed a lot in the past decade since diesel and hybrid powered vehicles are now using alternative technologies
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) April 28, 2015
Companies like Bosch have furthered the development of automotive pump technologies now featured in modern motor vehicles in the United States. The GetYourPart.com company is now assisting the public with learning how much are car oil pumps through its promoted inventory price tool that is now in place at http://getyourpart.com/used-car-oil-pump-sale.
The pumps that can be priced while accessing the open inventory system are meant for installation in most cars, trucks or consumer vans. The gasoline and diesel pump assemblies that are available to ship out this year are OEM editions and not aftermarket manufactured units. Secondary market partners are making it possible for the GYP company to supply the pumps to consumers this year.
"Oil pump assemblies have changed a lot in the past decade since diesel and hybrid powered vehicles are now using alternative technologies," said one GetYourPart.com rep.
The automobile oil pump inventory that is now being sold as used condition to consumers or car mechanics on the web is one example of replacement components in stock at the GetYourPart.com website. Aside from the engine oil pumps for sale, a person will have the opportunity to price vehicle fuel injection systems and fuel pump assemblies.
"Third-party auto salvage companies are now supplying the actual inventory that we're promoting on the web to consumers across the country," said the rep.
The Get Your Part website has been redesigned this month to provide an easier workflow for automotive components buyers who conduct research for price or stock status. All preowned components that are listed for sale prices are searchable through use of the updated warehouse search finder on the GYP homepage.
About GetYourPart.com
The GetYourPart.com company offers millions of vehicle components that are on sale through its computerized auto parts database on the web. The company has arrangements with nationwide suppliers to list inventory that is sale priced for consumers. The GetYourPart.com company is now listing inventory on sale through salvage and junk providers that consumers can freely purchase this year.

Forklift Operation Safety Checklist in Australia
Forklift operation is a task that requires the driver to have the proper skills and training. The Occupational Safety Health Administration (OSHA) states 70 percent of work accident and injuries related incident happen in the workplace when people ignore the safety measures.
In Australia, the Australian Standard AS2359.2 of 1985 Powered Industrial Trucks sets the regulations for operating, maintaining, repairing, and modifying of the forklift trucks. It is mandatory that companies and individuals operating such machinery should comply with the requirements.
Here is a sample checklist that ensures the safety of the operator and other employees/people.
Understand the main causes of injuries and accidents:
- Pedestrians crashing or getting stuck by the forklifts
- Operators being crashed during loading and off-loading
- People falling on the forks from raised surfaces
- Workplace design
- The forklift operating area should be different from pedestrian zone
- Are there barriers to protect pedestrians?
- Are there zebra crossings and walkways for pedestrians?
- Are there any mirrors or warning sites at all blind spots?
Forklift selection
Is the machine ideal for use on all operating surfaces in the workplace?
Is it the appropriate size?
Does it have a fitted seatbelt?
Does it have a readable chart and do the employees understand it?
Does it have a speed control device fitted to it?
Skills of operator
Is the operator qualified to run the machine?
Are they licensed?
Who is supervising the unlicensed operators, if any?
Do the operators understand the safety hazards and safe working procedures?
What is the procedure for reporting damages or incidents?
Forklift conditions
Is there a pre-operational checklist for each machine?
Is there maintenance and repair records?
Answering NO to any of the questions means there is room for disaster to occur. It is crucial to implement the controls for the sake of the employees' health and safety. If you are looking for a forklift for sale, you should consider these pointers!

This month's speakers are Mona Wong, talking about her work on the COSMIC2 Cryo-EM science gateway for PI Michael Cianfrocco (U Michigan). Structural biology is in the midst of a revolution. Instrumentation and software improvements have allowed for the full realization of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) as a tool capable of determining atomic structures of protein and macromolecular samples. These advances open the door to solving new structures that were previously unattainable, but handling large datasets (10+ terabytes) and access to supercomputers for analysis which are key to these advances, are not accessible by many. Specifically, we have adapted the successful and mature Cyberinfrastructure for Phylogenetic Research (CIPRES) Workbench and integrated Globus Auth and Globus Transfer to enable federated user identity management and large dataset transfers to XSEDE-allocated systems.
Damon Dougall (TACC) will talk about his work with PI Patrick Fragile (College of Charleston) to have Cosmos++, an MPI code for simulating black holes, run on Stampede2. These are low clock-frequency but high core-count nodes, and there are some challenges associated with running on this hardware efficiently. This talk will focus on some of the initial steps we have taken to improve serial performance and how these steps relate to C++ software design.

Progress Looking to Hire in 2011
Progress Software is expecting to bring on estimated 50 new employees for its Massachusetts operation in 2011, as it grows farther into the real-time business management software market, according to President Richard Reidy. He also stated that the organization expects to add about 200 more worldwide staff members in 2012, and hiring in Massachusetts will range from R&D to corporate office staff.
One major reason for this boost is the organization's Responsive Process Management (RPM) suite, which helps companies adjust dynamically to events by detecting opportunities and threats in real time. Progress is targeting this at capital markets, telecommunications and transportation, such as the airline industry.

Dublin: Irish opposition leader Enda
Kenny was poised to take power on Sunday with a promise to move
quickly on amending an unpopular international bailout after
his Fine Gael party won historic elections.
Kenny looks certain to be taoiseach, or prime
minister, after the ruling Fianna Fail party of incumbent
Brian Cowen suffered a crushing defeat by voters angry at the
collapse of their once-booming economy and the subsequent
But the 59-year-old Fine Gael leader told supporters
in Dublin late yesterday there was "no time to lose, no hour
to waste" as he confronted the challenges ahead, not least the
form of the government he will lead.
The centrist party looks likely to fall short of a
majority in the 166-seat Dail, the lower house of parliament,
and several top Fine Gael figures have indicated a coalition
with the opposition Labour party was likely.
With 134 seats declared, Fine Gael had 61, with 36.1
per cent of the vote; Labour had 32 with 19.4 per cent, and
the dramatic collapse of Fianna Fail, which has dominated
Irish politics for 80 years, was underlined as it had just 14
seats with 17.4 per cent.
Fianna Fail`s former coalition partners, the Green
Party, also suffered, losing all of its six seats.
In addition, at least 11 independent lawmakers were
elected and the republican Sinn Fein party almost tripled its
seats to 13, including its president Gerry Adams, who enters
the Dail for the first time.
Kenny said he would be looking at his party`s options
today but stressed he would be "deciding on this very
quickly," saying it was important to international markets
that Ireland had a "stable and strong government".
He also vowed to move fast on a key campaign pledge to
renegotiate the 85-billion-euro (USD 115-billion) bailout
agreed with the European Union and International Monetary Fund
in November, which many Irish see as a humiliation.
"We`re going to move on this next week, I`ve already
had contacts with Europe this very day," Kenny said in his
first post-election TV interview.
Fine Gael director of elections Phil Hogan predicted
today his party would get about 77 seats, short of a majority.
He refused to comment on a coalition beyond saying Fine Gael
had "common ground" with other parties.
Labour leader Eamon Gilmore said his party was
"willing" to form a coalition government but said no talks had
started yet. "The initiative rests with Fine Gael, that`s a
call they have to make," he told RTE television.

We here in the Green Mommy house have 4 Easters this year. Two tomorrow and two Sunday. Between Earth Day preparations and Easter preparations I have been very busy. Now that everything is set for this weekend and I have some time to Blog I can finally talk about how to have a Earth Friendly Easter.
Here are some of the things we do to help cut back on waste every Easter.
1. We use the same baskets every year.
2. We use the same plastic eggs every year.
3. We use shredded paper or tissue paper instead of plastic grass.
4. We buy bulk candy or bulk snacks instead of prewrapped stuff. Then you can put them in the plastic eggs.
5. We buy 75% healthy (mostly organic) dried fruit, candied nuts, roasted nuts, and chocolate covered pretzels and sun flowers seeds rather than candy.
6. Any toy treats are educational.
7. Bug gets a lot of gifts from birthdays and other holidays that sometimes get lost in the shuffle or unnoticed and even unopened. Those get bagged away for Easter Basket treats.
8. All other Easter treats are homemade.
9. Dying eggs we make sure we find kits that use food coloring and non toxic dyes.
So there you have it. A Earth Friendly Easter. Hope yours is lots of fun!
Follow my adventures in Mommyhood, as I seek out info and offer help to those who want to be Greener Mommies. I will discuss breastfeeding, midwives, attachment parenting, renewable and sustainable living, composting, cloth diapering, organic gardening, organic baby products, making your own baby food, and other green things. I am not an expert just a Mom exploring things as I go.

Philippians 4:8
Reduce harmful physical effects of stress;
Calm deep pressure on children, tantrums, and mellows moodiness;
Help the body's immune system, cures depression, and induces sleep;
Invigorate and rejuvenate
Increase heart rate and stabilize blood pressure;
Give a positive emotional state;
Bring out a surge of serotonine and dopamine, which are known as "feel good" brain chemicals.
Relieve pain, make you healthier and happier;
Help to overcome fear
Good for the heart, as it creates an adrenaline which causes your heart to pump more blood around your body.
Stress-reliever, lowering your cortisol 'stress' hormone.
Endorphins produced by kissing are 200 times more powerful than morphine.
Reduces anxiety and stop the 'noise' in your mind.
Increase the levels of oxytocin, an extremely calming hormone that produces a feeling of peace.
Great for self-esteem. Make you feel appreciated and helps your state of mind.
Those who kiss quite frequently are less likely to suffer from stomach, bladder and blood infections.
Those who kiss goodbye each morning live five years longer than those who don't.
Here's to Hugs and Kisses! OXOX
If life seems at its lowest ebb, because a day's gone wrong,
Let not your heart be troubled, for a new day soon will dawn.
And we can never be quite sure, just what it has in store,
Since each one is so different, than the one just gone before.
As it penetrates the darkness, with its soft and tranquil beams,
It calms even the most restless soul, and brings new hopes and dreams.
So when a day's been troubled, and the night is dark and long,
Lift up your fallen spirits, for a new day soon will dawn.
"Why carry the weight of the world on our shoulders,
when the Lord our God carries us on His."
– Faith Carr
"Cast your cares on Him for He cares for you."
I Peter 5:7

"If you've got pain
He's a Pain Taker
If you feel lost
He's a Way Maker
If you need freedom or saving
He's a prison-shaking Savior
If you've got chains
He's a Chain Breaker"
Lyrics from "Chain Breaker" by Zach Williams
" You have turned for me my mourning into dancing:
You have put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness.
To the end that my glory may sing praise to You, and not be silent.
O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever."
Psalm 30:11-12

The Panic in Needle Park/
"WARNING! THIS IS STRONG STUFF!" reads one of the promotional posters for Jerry Schatzberg's 1971 addiction drama The Panic in Needle Park. "This is the unadulterated raw story of what life and love are really like in the HELL of an $80 a day habit!"
Decades after the film's initial release, the more sensationalistic elements don't quite have the punch they used to. The filmmakers (or at least the marketing department) expected that people would be shocked by the endless close-ups of needles being jabbed into arms and by blunt reminders that junkies sometimes engage in sordid behavior in order to pay for their habits. At this point, that stuff feels like the sort of thing you might see in a dozen different gritty cable dramas. Fortunately, the film has more than shock value to offer. Look past the melodramatic '70s grit, and you'll find a tender, thoughtful little love story centered on two sensitively-drawn characters.
Helen (Kitty Winn, The Exorcist) has fallen ill in the wake of a cheap, unhygienic abortion. She's hospitalized due to excessive bleeding, and her boyfriend Marco (Raul Julia, Kiss of the Spider Woman) abandons her. Marco's drug dealer Bobby (Al Pacino, The Godfather) learns of Helen's plight and takes pity on her; offering her some friendly companionship at the hospital and helping her get back on her feet afterwards. Bobby uses heroin on a regular basis, but insists the he isn't really an addict ("I'm just chipping," is practically his catchphrase).
The film's early scenes are a charming, intermittently funny portrait of two young lovers just trying to stay alive. They make small robberies (and subsequent visits to local pawn shops), sleep wherever they can find a bed and hang out in Sherman Square (nicknamed "Needle Park" for obvious reasons) with Bobby's drug-addled friends (some of whom are in worse shape than others). Eventually, Helen decides to try shooting up, too. Before long, Bobby and Helen are having to work a whole lot harder to maintain their habits, and their behavior becomes increasingly desperate: Bobby starts working for a high-level drug dealer, and Helen contemplates the possibility of engaging in a little prostitution on the side to earn money.
Pacino and Winn have lovely chemistry together, giving us a sweet, charming relationship and then persuasively detailing the way drug addiction – and the external pressures caused by drug addiction – alters that relationship (it's alternately a bonding point of shared interest and a destructive force). This was Pacino's first major role, and it's easy to see why he became an instant star. Constantly chewing gum, sporting a friendly smirk and dishing out lots of flirty banter, he seems like the most relaxed person in the world... until things start getting tense, giving Pacino's now-trademark intensity a chance to reveal itself. Winn's performance is quieter but no less effective: you see her eyes shift from warm infatuation to profound sadness over the course of the film.
Outside the relationship drama, the film is a memorable snapshot of a particular subculture in a version of New York that feels entirely different from the one that now exists. Some of the supporting characters feel like bohemian stereotypes, but Schatzberg gives the busy ensemble scenes a real sense of lively spontaneity. Still, the possibility of tragedy inevitably hangs over this band of heroin-craving misfits. One character speculates that death is the greatest high. Bobby squirms uncomfortably. "Forget about that shit," he mutters to Helen. A lot of addiction dramas spotlight despondent characters who are trying to cure their sorrows. This one is about characters who love life and try to ignore the possibility that they're killing themselves.
The Panic in Needle Park

Some guy wrote this in his livejournal...I'd say he is spot on.
An Open Letter to Metallagher
Hi. My name is Bill. You might not know me but I've been a fan of yours since Jess told me about you last summer. I went and saw you open for D4 on the fourth of July and you were hilariously awesome. The whole idea of mixing Metallica and Gallagher was executed perfectly. I laughed and rocked in a way that neither act could provide on it's own.
I saw you again a couple of months later and it was just as good. An article was written about you in the Star Tribune and the house was almost completely sold out.
Then I heard that you were performing your last show ever opening for Doug Stanhope last Saturday. I was disappointed to hear that you were breaking up but excited to see you one more time. I told all of my friends about how I saw you twice and how amazing you were. When I got to the show Doug Stanhope was opening for you because who would want to follow you? You went on stage and half assed the entire performance. You didn't even have the Gallagher wig because you said you lost it at a previous show. You would start shitty Gallagher bits between songs but not follow through with them. Sure fruit was smashed but it seemed like you were going through the motions.
You broke my heart, Metallagher. You broke my heart.

The Tasmanian Whisky Producers Association (TWPA) is set to release a highly anticipated limited bottling. The Tasmanian Collection is a collaboration of leading Tasmanian distilleries to create an exceptional and unprecedented whisky blended from the participating distilleries' whiskies.
TD0060 was released today and is the first whisky both distilled and
Max McHenry to start as Apprentice Distillery at McHenry Distillery
Much awaited Barrel 3 to be release for Spring.
Tas Whisky Week has kicked off!!!
The inaugural Tasmanian Whisky Week takes place from Friday July 22 to Sunday July 31, 2016, with industry events being held across 9 days in Tasmanian distilleries, bars, barns, stables, restaurants and hotels.
Tasmanian distilleries are opening their doors to host behind-the-scenes public tours to meet the distillers in person, provide access to unreleased whiskies, and offer dining opportunities to showcase their award winning products.
Be sure to book early, as there are limited tickets available!
For more information head over to their facebook page, or website
and don't forget to drop by the Tas Whisky Trail facebook page for more events: https://www.facebook.com/taswhiskytrail/
The official launch of the McHenry Whisky has been announced:
The Limited Release Whisky we have all been waiting for is now available on the Lark Distillery website.
In March 2015 Bill Lark was inducted into the Whisky Hall of Fame.
The Whisky Hall of Fame is a permanent tribute to those who have made a lasting contribution to the world of whisky. Known internationally as "the Godfather of Australian Whisky", Bill Lark was the seventh person outside of Scotland or Ireland to be inducted, and the first distiller in the southern hemisphere to be recognised.
For this particular release, Bill hand-selected a 200 litre Heaven Hill Bourbon cask from Kentucky filled with Lark single malt and chose to finish it in a 90 year old Seppeltsfield Para Port Cask. He decided to bottle this straight from the barrel, unfiltered, at natural cask strength.
With only 220 bottles available, this collector's edition whisky, like Bill Lark, is one of a kind.
At $10,000 Tasmania's leading whisky distillery, Sullivans Cove, has created the most expensive bottle of Tasmanian whisky to date.
Made from extremely rare French oak single malt from the distillery's top awarded casks including French Oak HH0525 – the World's Best Single Malt Whisky, French Oak HH0390 – the Best Australian Single Malt 2015 and French Oak HH0509 – 96.5/100 Jim Murray's Whiksy Bible 2013, the Sullivans Cove Manifesto gives connoisseurs the opportunity to own a piece of whisky history.
Limited to only two bottles, the Sullivans Cove Manifesto decanters were hand made by Tasmanian glass sculptors Anne Clifton and Peter Bowles and each 6kg decanter comes with its own specially blown glass "spirit thief", a hand moulded "travel" stopper made from rare Tasmanian Huon pine and Portuguese cork and a matching glass stopper for everyday use.
The decanters are housed in hand made Huon pine cases lined with doeskin. Speaking from the distillery in Cambridge, malt master Bert Cason said, "Sullivans Cove and Tasmanian whisky in general have come a very long way and we wanted to create something really special that captures this. Using whisky from our top awarded casks plus some of our finest unreleased casks, we've created a malt that stands head and shoulders above the rest and promises the connoisseur the treat of a lifetime, not to mention a slice of whisky history."
One decanter is available from the distillery cellar door or online at www.sullivanscovewhisky.com, while the other is available from Dan Murphy's Double Bay.
