WILMINGTON, Mass. – The turnaround of Dennis Wideman's season has had such a car-accident-like effect on everyone's attention, the coinciding improvement in his defense partner Matt Hunwick's play has flown a bit under the radar.
And that's just how the second-year blueliner likes it.
Sure he notched an assist and drove the net to aid Dennis Wideman's game-tying goal in the first period of Monday's Game 3, but Hunwick is just as satisfied that he logged 21 minutes and 23 seconds more of ice time and kept things tight in the Boston end and helped kill off three Buffalo power plays.
"I actually feel really calm on the ice; I feel good," he said after practice today at Ristuccia Arena. "I don't necessarily need people talking about me. That's probably the best thing, when you go out and you play 20 minutes and you play mistake-free hockey, you know you're not going to get mentioned and that's something for a defenseman that you try to play every night."
It wasn't too long ago that Hunwick was a third-pair player the Bruins had to protect against dangerous situations. Not only that, his offensive numbers sagged despite more opportunity in his sophomore year. After a 27-point rookie campaign, he dropped to just 14 points in 2009-10 in 76 games (23 more than last year).
He had logged just a shade more than 12 minutes in two straight games before the injury bug ran roughshod over the team's back end in Toronto April 3. Mark Stuart had to leave the team because of his infected finger and Dennis Seidenberg left the game with a sliced left wrist.
He finished with 27:36 of ice time that night in an overtime victory and has averaged around 24 minutes per game since. His plus/minus was even until a plus-2 in Game 3.
"I think we've seen that quite often in this game where guys are forced into situations and when they're forced into it, they understand the responsibility that goes with it, they perform well," Julien said about that April 3 turning point. "I think it was one of those times where, even as a coaching staff, you say 'Wow, we're going to need those guys.' Dennis Wideman was one of those guys, and Hunwick – two guys that we knew could be better for us and they responded in a positive manner. They have been better for us and that's made a big difference."
Hunwick is at his best when he's confident enough in his defensive ability to let loose and use his outstanding skating to join the attack and punish opponents with an odd-man rush. That's just what he did Monday, when he gave up the puck quick in the neutral zone and then made a bee line for the Sabres' net.
"I think 4-on-4 you can always get up in the rush," said Hunwick. "If you're the second guy you have to go and try to create as much as possible. I didn't know that Wides was the third guy, but at this time of year I think you need to step up and try to make plays when possible. And Dennis felt like he could get up in the rush and he made a great shot."
Hunwick and Wideman have suddenly made a great second pair at both ends of the rink. They couldn't have picked a better time of the season for that.

Chrysler Town & Country Lease Questions
berrisj1 Posts: 9Never used a broker before, but had friends getting a good deal over the years with a local guy.
2012 T&C Limited. No additional options. 12K miles. 36 Months. $364.54 per month plus $702 due at signing. Vehicle cost on the sheet he gave me is just the MSRP. Unlike when I am at the dealership, there is no discussion of residuals, money factors, employee discounts (I'm in Detorit and everyone has a discount). Financing is through Ally. Best offers I was getting on my own were well into the $400s.
Any comments on my deal or the people's use of a lease broker.0
fleon Posts: 7Because broke get a pieces of the pie from your purchase. I recommend you download the ibuy/lease app to the Iphone and figure it out yourself. You need to find out the residual% , cap cost reduction(rebate on lease) and APR if lease by Ally Bank. You also can convert APR to MF by divide the Apr% by 2400 the result will be MF. I suggest just go ti your local deal and give them a chance.0
thiagarajan Posts: 1I am leaving in detroit . which dealership is this . Please let me know.0
Trying to figure out if there is any way out of the Ally $2500 purchase option fee, dealer says it has to be on there, no option. Another dealer told me differently but I never sat with their finance folks so who knows what they would have said. (The car residuals were different between the dealers by $1000, higher residual buy out for the one that said no $2500 buy out fee.) I don't plan to buy the vehicle but really don't want that $2500 buy out clause on the contract.
Making this deal was more frustrating than most and still not where I wanted to be but think I'm done for now and will sign this week, dealer also had to get veh from downstate, only 1 of 2 left like it in 300 miles. My second time leasing, have tried to learn as much as possible, went to 4 dealers, one wouldn't deal at all. Others were negotiable to a point then things seem to get nasty, had to walk out on one deal.
34,125 Touring L
No money down other than first month payment $374 and registration $200, no disposition fee but lease does have the $2500 purchase buy out clause.
They are buying out my 2010 Rav4 Limited from Toyota lease which they'll make some money on because mileage is little low but only 2 of 4 dealers were willing to do this, 4 payment left other dealers wanted to roll payments in and I said no way.
Please let me know if you have any info on the buy out clause or what you think of deal.0
Hi jenkay1. For some strange reason, Ally has been including that $2,500 purchase option fee on every vehicle that it leases. I highly doubt that dealers have the authority to alter this clause or that you will be able to get Ally to change it.

jim1462 Posts: 40Mr. Host, Would you provide the current Money Factor and residual for a Touring and Touring L. Also applicable available incentives. Thanks0
Hi jim1462. Ally's current base lease rate and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 Chrysler Town & Country Touring with 15,000 miles per year are 1.8% and 48%.
The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2013 Town & Country Touring L are 0.2% and 47%.
There is a $2,000 cash incentive on leases of this van in most regions.

adb280z Posts: 11I'm in the market for a Odyssey, Sienna or Town & Country/GrCaravan. The Sienna/Odyssey boards are quite active. This one is very quiet. If I got a T&C/GrCaravan I'm mostly interested in the Touring or SXT. Any recent deals?0
I'm 4 month into my T&C Touring L lease and of all the vehicles I've ever owned it is my favorite. I shopped all the vans. Not sure about deals right now and I will say the T&C does not have the super refined engine of the Honda or Toyota but it more than makes up for it with everything else, it has so many amenities (keyless, dvd, heated seats and steering wheel, automatic wipers/lights, sensors all around the vehicle, goes on and on), and is the most comfortable vehicle I've ever been in. I have bad arthritis so comfort was key for me when shopping. My two girls love the space and all it has to offer, you just can't get all the extras with Honda and Toyota for a reasonable price. The other thing that sold us was the look of the interior it is so beautiful in comparison to the other two. We have the black interior. So we purchased based on comfort, amenities, and look and are very happy. Love the heated steering wheel! Good luck with your shopping. As far as deals go I almost purchased with one dealer and then had a bit of a falling out with them, took the final deal to another dealer and just said this is what I want, yes or no and they said ok.0
I totally agree. I am now on my fourth T&C. Have a 2011 with all the amenities. I love the "stow and go" , which Toyota and Honda do not have.
I love the handling and all the features. I have the package with lane warning , automatic headlight dimmer, They work very well. I have had mine now about 14 months and no problems. Also have the black exterior with black interior. I also agree it is difficult to get a good deal with Honda and Toyota. Also love the comfort of the driving position. My U connect works better than my wife's Lexus. It even reads my text messages to me. The information display is the best I have ever had. Very readable and gives so much information. I also use the digital speedometer some.0
mick0016 Posts: 6For anyone interested, with the supplier discount, the lease price on a Town and Country base with NAV was $310 a month (includes taxes). I have to pay $500 up front for the first payment, doc fees, plate transfer, etc. 12,000 Miles Per Year, 3 year lease. I'm in the Detroit area.
Considering I was quoted $445 for a Nissan Quest with Leather & DVD and $504 a month for a Honda Odyssey with Leather and RES this month as well, Chrysler is really smoking the competition with respect to lease pricing.0
That is a great quote for a Town and Country with nav. I would jump on this. All the Town and Country vans now have leather as standard equipment. I have the T&C 2011 and love it. This is my fourth and the best one yet. I love the stow and go. None of the others have it. I could never deal with Honda or Toyota. The $500 up front is not bad since it includes the first months payment. My wife just leased a car with the first months payment free, but paid $250 in doc fees, plate, transfer etc. That is about normal.0
krikiter Posts: 6Hello Car_man,
Do you have the current lease terms for a 2013 T&C Touring L package for both USB and Ally? I'm looking for 36 months at 12K per year.
Thanks in advance.0
Hi krikiter. I have seen the lease program for this van through Ally and the new Chrysler Capital. I haven't seen the numbers from US Bank. Next month I think that all special leases for Chrysler will go through Chrysler Capital.
Chrysler Capital's April buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36-month lease of a 2013 Town & Country Touring L with 12,000 miles per year are .00069 and 57%.
The Ally numbers for this model are 1.65% and 55% (lease rate instead of a money factor).
There is a $1,500 cash incentive on leases of this van in most areas, it's slightly higher than that in a few.

wassct Posts: 4Is the lease program info the same in May as April? Trying to calc my lease payment based on my purchase price and don't want to be too far off.
Yes, wassct, the Chrysler Capitol lease program for this model is the same in May as it was in April.

Hi Car man,
Live in Long Island, NY. Received a quote for a 2013 Town and Country Limited with Luxury Option (29x) package. MSRP of $42,785. 24 month through Chrysler Capital -- 10,000 miles, sign and drive (first payment, DMV of roughly $250, and tax on rebates -- total up-front out-of-pocket of roughly $850. Taxes rolled into lease. Monthly payment is $395/month. Good deal or not?
Hi papajuice1. Do you know what this van's selling price is? That would make it easier to evaluate this deal.
Prices Paid: Buying & Leasing Experiences Forum0
I have not leased since March of 2011, so am not familiar with current prices. I had a lot of rebates and incentives totaling over $4,000. My lease is for 12,000 miles, and three years (36 months). MSRP was about $38,000 at that time. My monthly payment is $414 per month. I only paid document and title fees up front. No cap cost reduction. Monthly payment includes state tax. Ohio only charges tax on the monthly payment, not the total price of the vehicle. Your deal does not sound bad considering you are getting a much more expensive vehicle. Hard to compare, since mine was for 36 months and yours is for 24. Are there any good rebates and incentives now???0
Hi CarMan,
Dealer selling price for the car with an MSRP of $42,785 is $33,200.
Thanks again,
How did you get such a low price? Can you please list the incentives?0
I leased the vehicle today in So. Cal:
Touring-L w/ UConnect 730N, Ent Group #2 & Driver Convenience Group
Selling Price: $32,477
Incentives: $3000 ($1000 conquest, $2000 Chrysler advertised national program)
Cash Due at Signing: $1000 (first month's payment, registration, etc)
Lease terms: 36mo / 12K mi/yr
Residual: 57% (through Chrysler Capital)
Money Factor: 0.00069 (1.656% interest)
Monthly payment before tax: $299.94
Rebate to be received from Edmunds deal: $1000 (making this a true no cash due at signing lease)0
lefeenk Posts: 3Can you tell me which dealership you got this lease at, here in So Cal?0
Cerritos Dodge. They claimed the offer was good until the end of the quarter only but they do still have similar pricing on their website for the selling price.
To get the edmunds rebate you need to browse mini vans on edmunds and then click the chrysler Ad.0
Chrysler Capital Info for JULY 2013
Here is the Touring - L Residual and money factor for 24/36/39 (the best deal is the 24 months deal).
66% = 24 months
55% = 36 months
53% = 39 months
Money Factor:
24 Months: Tier 1 and Tier 2 = .00022 and Tier 3 is .00074 (Markup of .00042 allowed)
36 Months: Tier 1 and Tier 2 = .00015 and Tier 3 is .00067 (Markup of .00042 allowed)
Be very Careful. Dealers ALWAYS markup the money factor, ALWAYS. Any dealer tells you they dont, is a liar. Also, be careful on the tier they say you were approved for. If your score meets the tier 1 or tier 2 requirement, then you are that tier, do not let them tell you otherwise
FACT: Tier levels are NOT based on whats on your credit profile, its based on your AUTO ENHANCED FICO SCORE. That is not to say that you can get approved with a high score (being approved to begin with is based on score, your entire credit profile, income, debt, the car you want and so forth) but once you are approved, your tier level is SOLELY BASED ON SCORE, NOTHING ELSE. If they say you are approved, demand to see your scores (dealerships in certain states have no choice but to show you your report, which comes with your score as well).
Go in prepared with this info. With that said, do not let them know you know any of this info until after you are approved (many dealerships will run your credit and then tell you that you were denied. Why you ask? Well if they cant make enough money on a brand new car that they only had for a month, they will rather take their chances with someone else. There are many suckers out there). Be nice and discreet. If they come back with something that is pricier than what you believe it should be, then ask nicely to see the report and score they pulled up. If they deny you, leave the dealership. Also, remember, if you are approved with chrysler capital at one dealership, THEN YOU ARE APPROVED FOR THAT VEHICLE AT ALL DEALERSHIPS.
Hope this helps.0
cro372 Posts: 11Thanks for all the numbers. Are these national or regional numbers? Also, how did you come across them? Thanks!0
rupst2 Posts: 1Is conquest cash really dead on town and country? Everything I've seen online says expires 1/2014. Dealer told me expired 7/9 and they couldn't get it to show up as and option in the computer when quoting me and IDL lease.0
sach5 Posts: 7Hi,
I always appreciate the posts on actual transactions. Here's mine:
2013 T&C Touring L with convenience, nav, 3rd row dvd, sunroof
39mo/39k miles .15 per additional mile
Sell price $26,500 (includes dealer discounts and $9250 in rebates)
Plus taxes, titles, fees, sales tax, registration, title...all in.
$340 per month...just first month out the door.0
holy shoot sach5 that is rape city. Dealer raped you price wise
what was you credit tier based on....tier 5? Jebus!
I got a 30k sale price 2 months ago and my monthly is 270 and thats with nothing but first month, taxes and dmv fee out of pocket. Im also at 10k per year.
you my friend were taken to the back of the dealership and tricked into one of the worst deals ever know. How any person with a sale price that includes nearly 12k in rebates and discounts, gets a payment at 340
did you trade in negative equity of about 5k or something? Jebus, thats a rip off. That dealership is actually getting 4-5k EXTRA PROFIT, BASED ON THE MONTHLY PAYMENT.
This discussion has been closed.

On the match:
When you're on the road its pretty critical if you can get the first goal. It takes the wind out of their sails a little bit, takes the crowd out of it a little bit. I thought Edson (Buddle), besides the goal, had a great night. He was just a handful for them, he held up balls, and defensively as a collective 11 we did a great job of closing space. As the game went on I got a sense they were getting a little frustrated. We almost got the second goal, which we felt would have really put them out, but collectively it was a great effort from everyone tonight.
On Galaxy defender Omar Gonzalez:
He's living the life. For young guys, its not so much the physical stuff, it's the mental. So now he's coming off a Tuesday experience starting for the U.S. National Team, a quick turnaround to get ready for a league game and for a young guy I thought he showed a lot of maturity to handle that and to stay in it for 90 minutes. And the guy next to him tonight was terrific, Gregg Berhalther. He keeps him going, so I thought the pairing was excellent.
On Red Bulls defender Tim Ream:
Watching some video on him I think he's a very good defender, and could definitely be someone the (United States) National Team coach can look at. There are a lot of young guys coming up now, so it'll be interesting to see who will be the next in the back.
On defending with his partner Gregg Berhalter:
Tonight, me and Gregg were just talking about being really aggressive. I think that me and Gregg did really well to just get under their skin and make sure they didn't get too many touches on the ball.
On Juan Pablo Angel and Thierry Henry:
They're just both two smart players who can play really well off the ball. If you're not careful they can just run behind you because they always play off your shoulder and play on the line. It's really tough going against a forward like that. They're just a different class, and I think the backline did well today.
On Red Bull Arena:
The stadium was fantastic. I like the way the seats are built, how close they are, and it just feels really intimate. It's a good environment it, was fun to play in.
On the Red Bulls:
They were pretty good. They looked like they were maybe a little tired, I know they played a game mid-week. They're not a bad team, but obviously it's going to take them time to gel. You can't throw in a few new players like that and expect it to just happen overnight. They're going to be good, they're going to be around. They're going to be in the playoffs, and if they put together a few good performances they can do well.
On playing against multiple designated players:
It was great, we need that in our league. We want the opportunity to play in full stadiums and I guess now with (Thierry) Henry and (Rafa) Márquez here, they're going to have a lot more fans. For us it makes the game a little more intense, a little more real, and it's fun to play them.
On the addition of star players to the league:
It gives it immediate credibility. It makes the league better. You can see the difference in the skill level, the intelligence, the work rate, the positioning. You can tell when guys like Henry and Márquez are on the field. It brings something a little different, and it's going to make our league better.
On the match:
I liked this game. It was probably one of the most intense games for us this season. One turnover cost us a goal, but I'm still rather happy with our performance. We didn't overplay possession, and we played rather relaxed, and still created a number of chances. Once again, it's a good sign for us that we can compete and control possession against a team like the Galaxy. Sorry for the result, but our performance I'm happy with.
On Rafa Márquez and his turnover leading to the Los Angeles goal:
It's happens in football today, if you're in the middle of the park and make some mistakes or side passes, on the highest levels, you will pay a price. It's difficult to say, he's not fully fit. Perhaps he took too much time on the ball or tried to do something spectacular in a way. Unfortunate, but still we responded very well after being one down and still controlling the pitch.
On the game:
Overall I can say we played well. Even 1-0 dow,n we chased them really good, created many chances and hit the crossbar. The goalie saved a couple of chances from the line. I think we had a good game, but lately we have been missing and haven't scored goals. So I think this is a problem for us. It looks like we can play really good, but if you don't score maybe we have to do something and change our game plan or I don't know. Maybe it will just start one day.
On his thoughts of Rafa Márquez:
He's a new player on the team and he also needs to get used to it (style of play). We have played many good games at home, but we don't get penalties. We play at home and I don't think we have earned those red cards or penalties for us. I think we should have it, but it's the game. Marquez is a new player in the team. Of course he came from Spain so it's a little different football.
On the play leading up to the Galaxy goal:
Maybe it was a free kick before the goal. Here they don't give it as easy. I think in Spain it would have been a free kick. So it's a little bit different here. I think we as a team and him as a player understood this and it was just an unlucky mistake.
On the match:
I think it was a physical game. Without having that many chances, I think we still managed to hit the post. In the second half I had another one off a corner kick that came off the line, but apart from that there wasn't that much for the strikers in general in the game.
On Rafa Márquez adjusting to the style of play in MLS:
It'll be fine. Any player needs to be in a good form in order for him to perform and bring the best out of him. And the only way he's going to do it is by playing games. We've got to have a little bit of patience with him, and also with (Thierry) Henry because people expect too much right from the very beginning. They are going to be absolutely fine, and I think they're going to be very important for this team. Not just for the rest of the season, but for years to come.
On his performance:
I am not happy at all. I need more time to perform to be at my best level. We had many chances to tie the game, but we had no luck to achieve that.
On how much more time he needs to be at his best level:
It's hard to know how long it's going to take. But I will try to get to my best level as soon as possible.
On crowds at Chicago and Red Bull Arena:
I think the two crowds at the two stadiums were both incredible. We got a lot of support here and it really had taken me by surprise.
- With the win, the Galaxy are now 13-3-4 on the season and remain alone in first place in the Western Conference with 43 points. The Galaxy are now seven points clear of Real Salt Lake, who host the Columbus Crew later tonight, at the top of the Western Conference and six points ahead of Columbus in the race for the best record in MLS.
- Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena was not on the bench for the game after being released from the hospital earlier in the morning. Arena was admitted to the Hackensack University Medical Center on Thursday because of viral complications and spent two nights there before being released this morning. He watched the game from a private box at the stadium.
- In Arena's absence, Associate Head Coach Dave Sarachan and Assistant Coach Cobi Jones led the team.
- The Galaxy made two changes to the team that lost 3-2 to Chicago in their last league game back on August 1, with A.J. DeLaGarza replacing Todd Dunivant at left back and Juninho replacing Jovan Kirovski in central midfield.
- DeLaGarza was making his first start since July 18 at D.C. United.
- In addition to Dunivant, the only other Galaxy player to miss the game through injury was David Beckham, who remains on the Disabled List after undergoing surgery in March to repair a torn Achilles tendon.
- Mike Magee was back in the 18-man squad for the first time since May 29 in a 2-0 Galaxy win at Columbus. He underwent surgery to repair a bilateral sports hernia in late June. He was placed in the Disabled List on June 24 and missed the next six games before returning tonight.
- He entered the game in the 61st minute, replacing Tristan Bowen.
- Edson Buddle, Landon Donovan, Omar Gonzalez and Donovan Ricketts were all in the starting lineup for the Galaxy after playing for their respective national teams in the middle of the week. Buddle, Donovan and Gonzalez were all in action for the U.S. in their 2-0 loss to Brazil in New Jersey on Tuesday, while Ricketts played in goal for Jamaica in their 3-1 win at Trinidad & Tobago on Wednesday. All four trained with the club on Friday before starting in today's game.
- Buddle scored his MLS-best 13th goal of the season in the 10th minute. The goal was his first in the league since July 22 against San Jose and his fourth in six games since returning from the World Cup.
- Juninho collected the only assist on the goal for his second assist of the season and first since April 17 against Real Salt Lake. Both assists came on game-winning goals scored by Buddle.
- That goal gave the Galaxy a 1-0 lead in a game for the first time since the 2-1 win at D.C. United on July 18. LA had allowed a goal in the opening five minutes of each of their last two league games before today's match.
- This was also the first time since that game that the Galaxy did not allow a goal in the first half of play.
- Donovan Ricketts made two saves to earn his 10th clean sheet of the season and his first since June 26 at Toronto FC. The 10 shutouts are one more than Ricketts recorded in 2009, his first year with LA.
- Ricketts is now one shutout shy of tying Kevin Hartman's record of 11 clean sheets in a single season, which he set in 1999.
- LA is now one clean sheet away from tying the club record of 12 shutouts in a season, which they set in 2009.
- LA had allowed a goal in their last five league games before tonight.
- The win was the Galaxy's 13th of the season in MLS, one more than they recorded in all of 2009. Additionally, the Galaxy's 43 points are just three fewer than they had last season.
- The Galaxy are now a perfect 13-0-0 when scoring the game's opening goal, compared to 0-3-1 when allowing the first goal.
- The Galaxy are now 7-2-2 in 11 games on the road this season, including 3-1-2 against the Eastern Conference. This was their eighth clean sheet away from home this season.With Todd Dunivant missing today's game, Micahel Stephens is now the only Galaxy player to have played in all 20 of the club's regular season games this year. He started and played the full 90 minute in midfield against the Red Bulls.
- Donovan Ricketts played the 45th game of his MLS career tonight, while Sean Franklin played the 55th.
- Neither Chris Birchall nor Juninho were booked in the game, meaning that both are eligible to play next weekend at San Jose. Both players are one caution away from an automatic one-game suspension for yellow card accumulation.
- No Galaxy players were booked in the game after the club tied a club record with five yellow cards on August 1 against Chicago.
- This was the Galaxy's first-ever game at Red Bull Arena. LA are now 14-13-5 all-time when playing their first MLS game at a new stadium.
- Prior to the game, the Red Bulls honored former New York and Galaxy star Clint Mathis, who retired last week.
- Injured Galaxy midfielder David Beckham accompanied the team to New York and sat on the bench with the team's coaches during the game.
- The attendance for today's game was a sellout crowd of 25,000.
- The Galaxy are back in action next Saturday, August 21 when they head north to take on the San Jose Earthquakes at Buck Shaw Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif. That game kicks off at 1 p.m. (PT) and can be seen live on Fox Sports West starting with Galaxy Live at 12:30 p.m. and Telefutura.

Walmart, the G Word and Internet Activism
March 22, 2011
Forgive your enemies. It messes with their heads.
-- Unknown
Walmart is selling the new It Gets Better book. Just don't call it gay.
Okay, this is really a story of how a selfish act turned into a firestorm of activism. It has drama, self-righteousness and the hottest new book to hit the stores!
I noticed Walmart was selling it online. Huh. That's ironic, I thought. I went to their site and immediately responded to "Be the first to write a review."
"Like many people who grew up gay and afraid ..." I began, stealing a line from my own posting last week. My paragraph ended with a link back to my site for the full review. I pressed "enter," and up popped a scary red box telling me that my posting contained profanity and I better remove it before all hell breaks loose.
(Credit: Mohebban-e-Fatemeh)
No one can break hell loose better than Walmart, I figured, so I scanned my review and found nothing objectionable. Well, nothing objectionable to me. I needed another perspective, so I co-opted the psyche of a mid-19th century Amish diary farmer and presto! the word "gay" jumped from the page like the demon-possessed adjective that it is.
I'll admit I didn't hesitate to delete the word from the post or get indignant, because here's the selfish part, my friends: I only wrote a review to plug my blog. That's one of the marketing secrets of blogging: post on as many other sites as possible, and always sign with your blog address, to attract like-minded readers. Damn me and my insatiable thirst for blogging fame!
After an hour, my Walmart posting was still "waiting review," and only then did I find the episode vexing. What the crap is taking them so long, I steamed, and hey, why'd I have to delete the word gay, anyway? It screwed up the whole rhythm of the sentence! Oh, and it might be discriminatory.
(As of this writing -- and I will keep this updated -- my review, minus the G word, has yet to be posted. I have sent e-mails to both the media contact at Walmart regarding this issue, and left feedback on their corporate page. There has been no response.)
This is where everything accelerates and feels like the first half of The Social Network, when their computer explodes with hits and they're writing code on windows and stuff. I posted a mention of all this on Facebook, and my more activist oriented friends pitched a fit. Hmm, I mused, this could be a legitimate concern for people. And bring readers, my God, readers!
I posted another mention of it on the It Gets Better page on Facebook. Then blog guru JoeMyGod contacts me to verify the story, and lickety split, the story is on his site and sixty commentors are furious about it and/or think it's no big deal and/or being snarky with one another. Plus, Joe has linked back to my blog review on my own site and my traffic is like rush hour. Nirvana!
But that was so, like, yesterday. Today I have a posting about all this on The Bilerico Project, and I'm hoping to lure people like Towleroad and The New Gay into my web of political outrage. Linking to them one sentence ago could help, no?
(Credit: Dictionary.com)
The fact is, the internet has been dicey when it comes to sorting out what's dirty and what's divine for many years now. Scores of people never receive my mailings if I have the words "gay" or "sex" or even "AIDS" in the subject line. And Walmart, well, they may misguidedly believe that, by disallowing the word "gay," they are preventing people from saying "that's so gay!" in the product reviews.
I have a problem with that. I like the word. It defines me quite nicely. And I hate to surrender it to homophobic people simply because they might use it against me with an insipid teenage catch phrase.
Oh my. An outburst of activist righteousness has escaped me, and a sincere one at that. I hope you'll take note of it -- and then send this link to every single person on your e-mail list.

For some criminal defense attorneys and journalists, the quest to find and exonerate an inmate wrongly convicted of murder is the white whale of their profession — endlessly pursued with a passion that borders on zeal.
In his deeply reported and briskly written new book, "Manifest Injustice: The True Story of a Convicted Murderer and the Lawyers Who Fought for His Freedom," Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist-author Barry Siegel tells of one such quest that stretched over a decade.
If it were simply a story of virtue's triumph over adversity, "Manifest Injustice" would be both important and highly readable. But — without providing spoiler information here — its denouement is more complex and its conclusions are more nuanced. Pity the reader who bails out early.
At the center of the twisting tale is Bill Macumber, model citizen, military veteran, super-dad and law-enforcement supporter who was arrested 12 years after the 1962 murder of a young couple who were snuggling in their car parked on a lover's lane outside Scottsdale, Ariz. Convicted of two counts of first-degree murder, he was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
Late in the saga, a member of the Arizona state clemency board, a former state attorney general, called the Macumber case "one of the most extraordinary I have ever seen" with its tangled facts and puzzling questions.

Insurance Verification - Introduction
To protect the interests of all Virginia motorists, the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), in partnership with the insurance industry, administers an Insurance Verification Program to electronically verify the automobile liability insurance on millions of Virginia registered vehicles. This insurance industry resource center provides useful information for the Insurance Industry.
The goals of the Insurance Verification Program are to:
- encourage owners of registered motor vehicles to obtain and maintain automobile liability insurance;
- identify uninsured motor vehicles prior to accident involvement;
- reduce paperwork associated with insurance verification process which helps the insurance industry, DMV, and the citizen; and
- lessen government intrusiveness into the lives of citizens by sending notices only to vehicle owners suspected of being uninsured.
The Electronic Motor Vehicle Insurance Program, combined with DMV's three other highly successful insurance monitoring methods (the Suspected Uninsured Accident Report, the Law Enforcement Notification and the Citizen Information/Police Accident Report), constitute a highly effective insurance verification program, one in which the citizens of Virginia can be proud.

Manufacturer: Hytrol
Conveying Speed - 35-125 FPM, set on motor controller.
Motor Life Expectancy - 125,000 hours continuous runtime.
Motors - 24 VDC motor. One in each zone of conveyor mounted on inside of bedrail on straight sections only.
Accumulation Zones - 30 & 45 degree curves are preprogrammed with one zone stop at the midpoint. 60 & 90 degree curves have two zone stops.
EZLogic Zone Controller - Located in each zone (Retro-reflective) NEMA 1, 2, IP 62. UL approved.
Input Output Power - Provides 27VDC, 100 watt power for EZLogic accumulation system - contains slots for 4 input/output boards. Operates up to 50 zones with maximum of 25 on either side of IOP. Requires 120VAC or 230VAC single phase input.
Capacity - 22 lbs. per foot
Floor Supports -Not included. While you may attach curves directly to existing conveyor lines, a center support (MSC-06) at the apex of the curve must be used and can be ordered through the accessories.
Cross Bracing - Rods with turnbuckles are fastened to underside of bed to provide proper alignment of bed rollers and insure correct product tracking. Supplied on every other section 30 ft. bed lengths and over.
Slave O-Rings - 3/16" dia. polyurethane o-rings slave-drive tread rollers from motor.
Motor Controller - Controls and protects motor. One per each.
Power Supply (for motors) - Not included. Power is brought in from the straight section(s) of conveyor.
Electronic Zero-Pressure Logic accumulation system combines the sensing accuracy of photo-electronics with discrete electronic logic control without the use of a PLC.
Zone stop function is built-in controller and any zone may be transformed into a workstation by connecting a dry contact switching device to the auxiliary port of the zone controller. This feature is always used at the discharge end of the conveyor line, and may be used at any other location where a zone stop is required.
Singulation Mode - Product separates while traveling down the conveyor and when it is released from the conveyor creating a zone-length gap between products.
Enhanced Slug Mode w/ Jam Protection - Product does not separate when traveling down the conveyor or when it is released from the conveyor. This allows higher product throughput at any given conveyor speed. Product will not separate on the conveyor even when accumulation has been activated at the discharge end.
Cascading Slug Release - Rather than releasing all zones simultaneously, this function introduces a momentary delay in the release of each zone, from the discharge upstream
Dynamic Zone Allocation - Automatically adjusts the conveyor's zone length to accommodate the length of the product being conveyed. Improves conveyor efficiency and system flexibility.
In the case of E24, we're talking about energy savings as high as 60%. But then we get into raw materials savings: An E24 conveyor lasts about 6 times as long as a conventional roller at 125,000 hours life expectancy (24/7 runtime). That's less steel and power used to manufacture it.
E24EZ conveyors have a built-in controller that allows the conveyors to enter an energy-saving "sleep mode" for the ultimate in quiet, efficient, sustainable powered roller conveyor. Because the conveyor can use one motor for all widths, it's excellent for reducing needs for specialized, energy-consuming motors. With 3 moving parts, there are many fewer opportunities for parts failure, and the inefficiency that comes with it.

HALLOWEEN SPOILER ALERT! Mark Salling Tells Us The 'Glee' Guys Are Going To Be Power Rangers!
Forget the Rocky Horror Picture Show! This Halloween, the boys from Glee are dressing up to kick butt!
The guys from Glee are no strangers to playing to dress up! We've seen them go Gaga, kick it old school with Britney, and we're dying to see their Rocky Horror Picture Show rendition. But after the racy GQ scandal, Hollywoodlife.com wanted to know how primetime's favorite guys were going to dress for Halloween and Mark Salling gave us the inside dish on his Glee co-stars' hilarious costume choices.
"Some of the Glee guys and I thought of going as Power Rangers," the 28-year-old performer told reporters at his solo album release party at Blackberry's BBM Lounge in Hollywood Oct. 22. "But I don't know if that will actually happen."
We hope it does! Who wouldn't want to see Puck, Finn, and Mr. Schuester don some spandex and play super heroes for a night? We wonder which five guys of the cast will be banding together with lasers and light beams to stop crime this Halloween!

COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) - University of South Carolina assistant women's basketball coach Nikki McCray announced Monday that she was diagnosed with breast cancer in November.
McCray has begun treatment and will continue to coach through the season, as possible. Doctors indicate the cancer is treatable.
"This will definitely be a challenge, but I am getting prepared to fight and win this battle," said McCray. "We are a close family here at South Carolina, and I will draw my strength from God, my family and friends, our team, our staff and the fans. I am thankful for everyone's continued to support."
"When Nikki called me with the unexpected news, my immediate reaction was to become the best supporter for her through this process," South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley said. "Family is important to us, and we all have embraced Nikki's diagnosis with that mindset and providing her with all the moral and physical support she needs. Our 'Play 4 Kay' game will definitely have an even more personal meaning for us this year."
In her sixth season on the Gamecocks' sideline, McCray has helped the program to back-to-back 25-win seasons and a spot in the national polls throughout the 2013-14 campaign. Her work with the guards has helped four of them earn All-SEC honors in the last four seasons, including 2013 SEC Defensive Player of the Year Ieasia Walker.

A bill pending in the state House of Representatives proposes to require any government-to-government sale of land be advertised in the local newspaper.
A bill pending in the state House of Representatives proposes to require any government-to-government sale of land be advertised in the local newspaper.
Rep. Alan Harper, R-Northport, wants to ensure that residents are made aware when a government or governmental agency intends to transfer land to another government or governmental agency.
"We felt like this was a way to add some transparency to these type of governmental transactions," Harper said, especially if a transaction is for the benefit of a landfill.
Now, any intergovernmental land sale requires no official notification, which is why the Black Warrior Solid Waste Disposal Authority made no announcement last year when it bought 529 acres from the Alabama Department of Mental Health in order to expand the landfill off U.S. Highway 82 near Mount Olive Road.
The $4.23 million land sale was approved by the authority in February 2012 and finalized a month later, but news reports of the transaction didn't surface until September.
At the time, mental health department spokesman Jeff Shackelford said the department did not announce the sale because it was a government-to-government agency transaction and was not subject to bid laws.
This sale came as a surprise — and drew the ire — of many Northport residents, and some raised concerns about how the transaction would affect their own property values.
While the state mental health department and solid waste authority were within their legal rights, some citizens said it was wrong to hide the sale until it was over.
"Legally, they may be OK," said Northport property owner Frank Thompson last year, "but morally, I don't think they were OK with doing it that way."
Gov. Robert Bentley's office defended the sale in September, but Harper said the governor voiced no concerns with the bill he introduced soon after the 2013 legislative session began.
"The governor is in full support," Harper said, "and I'm hoping our Legislature is too."
Harper said he hopes the bill, HB 121, which was co-sponsored by Rep. Alan Baker, R-Brewton; and Rep. April Weaver, R-Pelham, will make it to a committee calendar within the next two weeks and then to the House floor for a vote.
"I think the people deserve to know what their tax dollars are being spent on," Harper said.

It's a crazy world when violating a website's terms of service can potentially subject you to more prison time than murdering someone. But that's what the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, in its current form, allows.
Rep. Zoe Lofgren, Democrat from Silicon Valley, sought comment on Reddit on her plan to introduce Aaron's Law. She has now posted a revised draft of the bill [pdf].
TechCruch has some news on how the proposal is developing.
The most illuminating piece on the Aaron Swartz case and federal prosecutors' overreaching is by Jennifer Granick, Aaron's friend and a former federal defender. It's broken into two parts. I really can't recommend Jennifer's post enough – it's the best blogging I've read in many months.

Police investigating theft of appliances in Manchester
October 24. 2013 9:45PM
Police responding to a report of a disturbance at 77 Hecker St. Wednesday morning found the building owner and his contractor had blocked in a vehicle they suspected was used in an earlier theft of two refrigerators from the property.
Officer Eric Desmarais noted storm windows in the open trunk of the car, whose driver was identified as Johnny Almonte, 33, of Manchester. Officer Brian Karoul identified Almonte's passenger as Michael Filamond, 18, also of Manchester.
Officers were told that when the owner and contractor saw Almonte and Filamond taking material from a pile in the driveway, they noticed two refrigerators, valued at $750 each, were missing from the driveway.They immediately suspected Almonte and Filamond of taking the refrigerators. Desmarais said he'd seen Almonte's vehicle earlier Wednesday at Main and Putnam streets with two refrigerators strapped to the roof and trunk. There were scratches on Almonte's roof and trunk and Desmarais confirmed Almonte had just sold two refrigerators to a salvage yard on Allard Drive.Almonte and Filamond were arrested and charged with felony theft.
Police are also investigating the reported theft of a Maytag washer and dryer from 100 Orange St. between 10:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. Wednesday. A neighbor reported seeing the appliances in the back of a green Toyota pickup that left the area.

Rod Grams, Former Minnesota Senator, In Hospice Care
ST. PAUL (AP) - Former U.S. Sen. Rod Grams has entered hospice care following a cancer diagnosis in April 2012.
A spokesman for the Grams family confirmed the development on Wednesday. Kent Kaiser, a longtime GOP activist, says Grams is in hospice at his home in the eastern Minnesota town of Crown.
Grams, a Republican, served a single term in the U.S. Senate from 1995 to 2001. He lost his re-election bid to Democrat Mark Dayton, now Minnesota's governor.
He previously served one term in the U.S. House, after working for nearly a decade as lead news anchor for KMSP-TV in the Twin Cities.
Kaiser says Grams is upbeat, can still get around by himself and has been receiving visitors. Kaiser says Grams is the most approachable and down-to-earth politicians he has ever known.

Up Front - The Publisher's Column
A Running Start
We start 2013 by featuring our Floridian of the Year. Please understand that this is not a lifetime achievement award, but rather recognition of a significant achievement that occurred in Florida during the past year.
This year's Floridian of the Year, Jonathan Hage, is notable for his leadership position at the cutting edge of a trend — charter school growth. His Charter Schools USA, based in south Florida, now runs 37 charter schools in Florida and has become one of the fastest-growing charter school operators in the country.
Momentum behind charter schools, which remain controversial to some, is growing. Nationally, the number of charter schools has increased from fewer than 1,600 a bit more than a decade ago to 5,613 today. In Florida, we have more than 570 charter schools. Last year, more than 200,000 Florida students, or one in every 17, attended a charter school.
Joining the Floridian of the Year are notable newsmakers from every region of the state in sectors such as business, entertainment, health care and sports. And while Trend's readers can argue endlessly about who most deserves this recognition, we find no lack of significant individuals to showcase.
On a more somber note, Florida Trend again recognizes the military men and women who gave their lives in defense of the United States. Please see their photographs and information at Florida's Fallen Soldiers.
This new year has special meaning for Florida. Exactly 500 years ago, Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon landed on the east coast, documented the arrival and gave a name to the area ... La Florida. American Indians, of course, were the original pioneers, dating back perhaps 12,000 years, but the Spanish claim did open a new era in history.
Florida Trend will recognize this rich history with a special issue in May highlighting Florida's Hispanic heritage over the generations and noting the
Viva Florida 500 cultural events being organized statewide.
And 2013 is also important for Florida Trend itself. This year is the magazine's "double nickel" 55th anniversary. From a 32-page black and white publication in 1958, Trend has grown to more than 52,000 monthly copies and more than 250,000 readers from the executive ranks of business, government and civic affairs. We are thankful for the many advertisers who reach this influential audience through our pages, and now through the FloridaTrend.com website.
During the year, Trend will continue its popular series of community portraits. In the coming months, you will see reports on Orlando in May, Tallahassee in June, Fort Lauderdale in October, Lee County (including Fort Myers) in November, and Seminole County in December in honor of that county's 100th anniversary. We will also dive deeply into the High Tech Corridor, a ribbon from Tampa Bay through Orlando to the Space Coast that bumps up to include the University of Florida.
Only through the pages of Trend do readers see a detailed portrait of regions of the state where they don't personally reside.
Fitness: I ran the first race of my life — the 5k Turkey Trot — on Thanksgiving Day. I finished in 33:12 for an average speed of 10:45 per mile, slightly better than expected. The hoopla certainly helped — costumed runners, bands along the road and thousands of fellow runners including our sons, who trotted along beside me.
My 2013 goal: After dropping 15 pounds and starting to run in 2012, I'll certainly try to maintain that fitness. But the new biggie is to learn some Spanish. Hopefully, Santa will bring me the Rosetta Stone language software. Progress reports forthcoming.

Chicago police shot and killed a man in the Roseland neighborhood on the Far South Side, officials said this morning.
The shooting occurred after a motorist was robbed at gunpoint of his Ford pickup truck at about 10:30 p.m. Tuesday near 107th Street and Michigan Avenue in the Roseland neighborhood, a police union official said. The carjacking took place at a fast-food restaurant property, said Carlos Weeden, a spokesman for the Independent Police Review Authority.
Dead was Sean Brown, 18, of the 10500 block of South Lafayette Avenue, less than a block from where he was shot and died, according to the Cook County medical examiner's office.
After flagging down a passing Calumet District squad car, the victim gave police a description of gunman, and officers quickly broadcast it over police radio, Fraternal Order of Police spokesman Pat Camden said.
About 10 minutes later, officers in another squad car spotted a Ford F150 truck near the intersection of 100th Street and Calumet Avenue and called for backup, fearing that the driver might flee when they approached, Camden said.
Police confirmed in a statement that officers were involved in a pursuit before trying to arrest the suspect.
The truck's driver fled on foot before backup arrived, leading officers on a brief pursuit that ended with the truck crashing into a tree in the 10500 block of South Lafayette Avenue. The truck's driver was tackled twice by officers who gave chase, Camden said.
After the second tackle, the driver reached for something, leading an officer to believe he was reaching for a weapon, Camden said. Fearing for his life, the officer shot the driver, who later died, Camden said.
A weapon from the suspect was recovered, he added.
The shooting happened in an alley near 105th and State Street, close to Lafayette Avenue, police said.
None of the officers involved was injured, according to the police statement. Investigators determined that the pickup driven by the dead man was the same one taken in the carjacking.
Brown died on the scene, a spokesman for the Cook County medical examiner's office said.
Tribune reporter Liam Ford contributed.

CHICAGO -- The first reports that the Phillies were on the verge of signing Cuban righthander Miguel Alfredo Gonzalez surfaced near the end of July.
The move finally became official Friday when the Phillies announced the pitcher signed a three-year deal with a vesting club option for a fourth year. The deal, according to general manager Ruben Amaro Jr., is worth a guaranteed $12 million.
That is significantly less than the six-year, $60 million that initial reports said Gonzalez would receive. Amaro would not say why the deal took so long to complete after those initial reports, but it was likely because of concerns about the pitcher's arm that were discovered during a physical.
Gonzalez had bone spurs removed during surgery in 2010.
"Any time you sign a free agent there is always risk and we had our doctors take a look at him and we were comfortable enough to go ahead and move forward with it," Amaro said.
The contract will begin with the 2014 season when the Phillies hope the 26-year-old righthander moves into their starting rotation. For now, Gonzalez will report to the team's spring-training facility in Clearwater, Fla. and participate in instructional league activities that begin next month.
"He's got great stuff," Amaro said, adding that Phillies scouts believe he can be a second or third starter in the big leagues. "It just all depends on how effective he becomes at the major-league level. He actually has a variety of pitches -- fastball, cutter, slider, curveball, changeup, split -- so he's got a variety and we just have to find out what ones work for him."
Gonzalez, 26, has not pitched a lot competively in the last two years. He was banned from pitching in Cuba after a failed defection in January 2012 and then successfully defected in February of this year. The Phillies saw him pitch several times in Mexico.
"We had (his velocity) at 93 to 97," Amaro said. "Where he settles in at as a major-league starter we don't know."
Though the deal wasn't close to initial reports, it was still the most lucrative international signing in Phillies history.
"More than anything else it's about finding different ways to find talent," Amaro said. "The free-agent market place is very difficult to navigate and risky. There will be risk on this player, too, but the history of what we've seen out of this guy, he has a chance to be pretty special."

text: A LOVE STORY FOR GOLFERS A couple was having dinner one evening when the husband reached across the table, took his wife's hand in his and said, "Beth, soon we will be married 30 years, and there's something I have to know. In all of these 30 years, have you ever been unfaithful to me?" Beth replied, "Well Charles, I have to be honest with you. Yes, I've been unfaithful to you three times during these 30 years, but always for a good reason." Charles was obviously hurt by his wife's confession, but said, "I never suspected. Can you tell me what you mean by 'good reasons'?" Beth said, "The very first time was shortly after we were married, and we were about to lose our little house because we couldn't pay the mortgage. Do you remember that one evening I went to see the banker and the next day he notified you that the loan would be extended?" Charles recalled the visit to the banker and said, "I can forgive you for that. You saved our home, but what about the second time?" Beth said, "And do you remember when you were so sick, but we didn't have the money to pay for the heart surgery you needed? Well, I went to see your doctor one night and, if you recall, he did the surgery at no charge." "I recall that," says Chuck. "And you did it to save my life, so of course I can forgive you for that. Now tell me about the third time." "All right," Beth said. "So do you remember when you ran for president of your golf club, and you needed 73 more votes?"

Safety Nate Allen did not practice Friday because of a left hamstring injury he suffered the day before.
If he can't play Monday night against the Saints, David Sims will start in his place, Eagles coach Andy Reid said.
Allen said that he injured his hamstring during Thursday's practice. He injured his other hamstring in the fourth quarter of the overtime loss to the Lions on Oct. 14 and was replaced by Colt Anderson. Allen returned two weeks later, after the bye, and played the entire game against the Falcons.
Allen has three days to get ready for Monday night's game against the Saints. The Eagles practice again on Saturday, have a walk-through on Sunday and then fly to New Orleans immediately afterward.
Anderson had several issues in short relief of Allen against the Detroit, so Sims is now ahead of him on the depth chart.
Guard Danny Watkins (ankle) and wide receiver Mardy Gilyard (hamstring) were the only other Eagles to not practice on Friday. Defensive tackle Cullen Jenkins (knee) returned after sitting out a day and defensive tackle Mike Patterson continues to make progress toward a return after January brain surgery.

I've constantly tried new things, even as a child, and have always been obsessed with pink. Now I'm just a little more ladylike and fearless. You should never feel afraid to become a piece of art. It's exhilarating.
Flat knee-high boots! They can be cheap or expensive, purple, green, yellow, pink— you name it. I'm in heels a lot, so I love when I can slip my boots on . They're comfortable and so cute!
I just love off-the-wall, radical, colorful pieces. Lately, I find myself in Versace and Alexander McQueen. As for shoes, a sexy Louboutin heel always does the trick.
Pink lipstick! I did an amazing project with M.A.C. and created my Pink 4 Friday shade. It was a great experience.
All the time, but it's the price you pay when you wanna play!
George Michael in tight jeans, a leather jacket, and a guitar.
The song "Monster" — never in a million years did I think I'd get a chance to record a song with Jay-Z or to be on a Kanye West album. It was truly a defining moment as an artist.
It's a blessing! They feel like my little sisters and brothers. I have this urge to protect them and have fun with them at the same time.
"Super Bass" — it's on my delu album. It's fun and sexy.
Your victory is right around the corner. Never give up.

text: Discussions of data analysis were common throughout the DMA conference. The consensus at a concluding session on marketing trends: Digital and Big Data advances create new marketing opportunities, but they also create challenges in developing compelling, precise messages. The solution, panelists agreed, is that data works best in focusing big ideas toward messages that are more appropriate to discrete segments, leading to greater relevance and faster conversions. "The challenge is one of changing the corporate culture to shift from focusing on that one big idea to using data to make decisions that often contradict what your own expertise is telling you," said panelist Omar Tawako, CEO of data management company Blue Kai. With this shift in focus, Tawako said, marketers can "customize the big themes with every piece of data they know. That's an exciting new skill set." Panelists agreed that data plus digital is creating new opportunities for "omnichannel" marketing, including the ability to personalize messages for different channels and various devices. "Mobile has become more important, but it's not killing desktops and laptops," said Tim Reis, head of mobile and social solutions Americas at Google Inc. "TV didn't kill radio but gave it a different role. I still believe in print and TV, and the good news is that all this available data is making it easier for marketers to understand how each element contributes." While data is driving many marketing decisions today, panelists expressed concern with its accuracy. "First-party data is gold," Tawako said. "Everyone needs to master the use of their own data first, then use taxonomy to know what they're missing and fill in the holes with third-party data." But third-party data has its own holes, Tawako said. "You need to benchmark various data sources against each other, building techniques to live with a noisy data world," he said. Reis made the case for behavioral data's role in augmenting other sources of information. "It's about getting into the slipstream of the actual activities of customers as opposed to just standing outside the data and making a declaration, which inherently will be flawed," he said.
