Temperature forecast lifted for Australian Open start
An extensive heatwave is sweeping eastwards across Australia, baking inland regions and ensuring the Australian Open Tennis Championships has one of its hottest starts.
Players slugging it out at Melbourne Park can expect a very hot tournament, with temperatures to reach 35 on Monday and 41 on Tuesday, and then 39, 41 and 40 for Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, the bureau said in its Sunday forecast update.
''Every indication is that the heat is likely to linger and there'll be high-20s through the second week'' of the tennis, Sam Brown, a meteorologist with Weatherzone, said.
Sea breezes, though, will mean much of coastal NSW will be spared the worst of the heat sweeping across southern Australia. Sydney will have 25 to 30 degree days until Saturday, the Bureau of Meteorology said.
Fire danger ratings are likely to be very high for the week across south-eastern Australia. (View current fire ratings for Victoria here and for NSW here.)
Regions further west and south, though, will experience much higher maximums. Penrith will get 30 to 34 degrees on Monday and Tuesday before four days of 37 to 39 degrees. Wagga Wagga, which reached 39 degrees on Sunday, can expect the mercury to hit 38-43 degrees from Monday to Saturday.
''The heat is definitely very intense,'' Mr Brown said. ''The slow-moving weather pattern has just allowed that heat to build and build.''
Overnight temperatures won't offer much relief. Minimums in Melbourne won't dip below 22 from Tuesday until Saturday, while Friday's low is unlikely to drop below 28 degrees on current forecasts. Sydney's minimums will be a muggy 19-21 through most of the week.
Hot spells
Inland Victoria will see some very hot conditions in coming days. Shepparton, for instance, will endure five days of 40-plus maximums from Monday, with 44 forecast for Thursday and Friday - more than 14 degrees above the long-term January average for the town.
The latest heatwave began to form in north-western WA early last week. The warmth moved southwards on Saturday, sending temperatures up to the low-40s all the way to Perth. Maximums reached 43.3 degrees in the city on Saturday with the mercury hitting 41 degrees by 9.39 am before the arrival of sea breezes eased temperatures.
While Saturday was Perth's hottest day since Boxing Day 2007, the city sweltered through the night. Weatherzone said the minimum of 29.7 degrees set at 3.12 am beat the warmest overnight low by 0.4 degrees in records going back 110 years.
Adelaide, meanwhile, is bracing for five days of 40-43 degree days from Monday, the bureau said.
Along with the tennis, Melbourne Victory will take on the Western Sydney Wanderers in A-League soccer on Tuesday evening - not far from the Australian Open at Melbourne Park.
For some regions of Australia it will be the second belting of heat this year, after an earlier heatwave broke records at 34 weather stations, including the most at any site with more than 40 years of data – at Narrabri in northern NSW.
It comes after 2013 was declared by the bureau as Australia's hottest year in more than a century of standardised records, with the background warming from climate change a contributing factor.

How does this medication work? What will it do for me?
Imatinib belongs to a family of medications called protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It is used to treat adults and children who have been newly diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). It works by affecting enzymes that play a role in certain cancer cells.
It is also used to treat adults with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in blast crisis (sudden attack), accelerated phase (fast growth), or chronic phase (long-term illness) after the failure of interferon-alpha therapy. Imatinib is also used to treat adults with cancerous gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) that cannot be removed by surgery or that are spreading to other parts of the body.
It is used to treat adults who have been newly diagnosed with certain types of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Philadelphia-positive – Ph+ ALL). It is also used to treat Ph+ ALL that have not responded to other medications. Imatinib is also used to treat dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP), a cancer where tissue under the skin grows out of control, when it cannot be removed by surgery or it is spreading to other parts of the body.
Other types of cancers can also be treated with imatinib. Imatinib may also be used to treat some types of myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative diseases (MDS/MPD), aggressive systemic mastocytosis (ASM), hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES), and chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL). In these conditions, different types of blood cells start growing out of control.
Imatinib has been granted a notice of compliance with conditions (NOC/c) by Health Canada to treat adults who have an intermediate to high risk of GIST returning, after the tumours have been completely removed by surgery. This means that Health Canada has approved this medication to be marketed based on promising evidence of effectiveness, but additional results of studies are needed to verify its effectiveness. An NOC/c is used to allow access to products that are used to treat or prevent serious, life-threatening, or severely debilitating illness.
This medication may be available under multiple brand names and/or in several different forms. Any specific brand name of this medication may not be available in all of the forms or approved for all of the conditions discussed here. As well, some forms of this medication may not be used for all of the conditions discussed here.
Your doctor may have suggested this medication for conditions other than those listed in these drug information articles. If you have not discussed this with your doctor or are not sure why you are taking this medication, speak to your doctor. Do not stop taking this medication without consulting your doctor.
Do not give this medication to anyone else, even if they have the same symptoms as you do. It can be harmful for people to take this medication if their doctor has not prescribed it.
How should I use this medication?
Treatment with imatinib should be started under the direct supervision of a physician experienced in the treatment of the conditions for which this medication is being used.
Doses for children are based on body size and will be calculated by your child's doctor.
For newly diagnosed chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) or chronic phase CML, the usual adult dose of imatinib is 400 mg daily. The usual adult dose in accelerated phase or blast crisis CML is 600 mg daily. Depending on how you respond to the treatment and on the side effects you experience, you doctor may increase your dose to 800 mg daily.
For cancerous gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST), the usual adult dose ranges from 400 mg to 600 mg daily. Dose adjustments may be required depending on your response and on the side effects you experience. The usual dose for adults at intermediate to high risk of relapse of GIST is 400 mg taken once daily.
For Ph+ ALL, the usual adult dose is 600 mg daily.
For MDS/MPD in adult patients, the starting dose is 400 mg daily.
For some types of ASM, HES, or CEL, the starting dose is 100 mg daily. Depending on how you respond to the treatment and on the side effects you experience, you doctor may increase your dose to 400 mg daily.
For DFSP in adult patients, imatinib is taken as 800 mg daily. Doses of 800 mg should be taken as 400 mg twice a day, in the morning and evening.
Imatinib should be taken by mouth, with a meal and a large glass of water. Avoid drinking grapefruit juice while you are taking imatinib. Swallow the tablets whole.
If you are not able to swallow the tablet(s) whole, the tablet(s) may be dissolved in a glass of water or apple juice. Stir with a spoon to completely disintegrate. This liquid must be swallowed immediately. Rinse the glass with the same fluid and drink this as well.
Many things can affect the dose of medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are taking the medication without consulting your doctor.
It is important that this medication be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
Store this medication at room temperature, protect it from light and moisture, and keep it out of the reach of children.
Do not dispose of medications in wastewater (e.g. down the sink or in the toilet) or in household garbage. Ask your pharmacist how to dispose of medications that are no longer needed or have expired.
What form(s) does this medication come in?

Some people may experience side effects other than those listed. Check with your doctor if you notice any symptom that worries you while you are taking this medication.
Are there any other precautions or warnings for this medication?
Before you begin using a medication, be sure to inform your doctor of any medical conditions or allergies you may have, any medications you are taking, whether you are pregnant or breast-feeding, and any other significant facts about your health. These factors may affect how you should use this medication.
Anemia: Imatinib may cause low levels of red blood cells. If you experience symptoms of reduced red blood cell count (anemia) such as shortness of breath, feeling unusually tired, or pale skin, contact your doctor as soon as possible.
Your doctor will do blood tests regularly to monitor the number of specific types of blood cells, including red blood cells, in your blood.
Bleeding: Imatinib may cause a reduced number of platelets in the blood, which can make it difficult to stop cuts from bleeding. If you notice any signs of bleeding, such as frequent nosebleeds, unexplained bruising, or black and tarry stools, notify your doctor as soon as possible. Your doctor will order routine blood tests to make sure potential problems are caught early.
Drowsiness/reduced alertness: This medication is not expected to make you drowsy and impair your ability to drive or use machinery. However, it may make some people feel weak. Do not drive or use machinery until you know how this medication affects you.
Fluid retention: This medication can cause serious fluid retention. If you experience unexpected rapid weight gain or swelling in your feet, ankles, lower legs, or hands, contact your doctor immediately. Your doctor will weigh and monitor you regularly for signs of fluid retention while you are taking this medication.
Grapefruit juice: Grapefruit juice affects how imatinib is removed from the body and may cause too much of the medication to build up in the body. Do not drink grapefruit juice while taking this medication.
Heart problems and heart failure: Rarely, heart problems including heart failure, have been reported with the use of imatinib. If you are at risk for heart problems such as heart failure (e.g., people with high blood pressure, diabetes, and coronary artery disease), discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. Contact your doctor immediately if you have symptoms of heart failure such as leg swelling, chest pain, or shortness of breath.
Infection: As well as killing cancer cells, imatinib can reduce the number of cells that fight infection in the body (white blood cells). If possible, avoid contact with people with contagious infections. Tell your doctor immediately if you notice signs of an infection, such as fever or chills, severe diarrhea, shortness of breath, prolonged dizziness, headache, stiff neck, weight loss, or listlessness. Your doctor will do blood tests regularly to monitor the number of specific types of blood cells in your blood.
Kidney function: If you have kidney problems, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed.
Liver function: Imatinib may affect liver function. If you have liver problems, discuss with your doctor how this medication may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of this medication, and whether any special monitoring is needed. Your doctor may want to test your liver function with blood tests regularly while you are taking this medication.
Muscle effects: In rare cases, serious muscle damage has been associated with the use of this medication. Report any unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, weakness or cramps, or any brown or discoloured urine to your doctor immediately, particularly if you are also experiencing malaise (a general feeling of being unwell) or fever.
Stomach problems: Imatinib may cause stomach irritation or bleeding. To reduce stomach irritation, take this medication with food and a large glass of water. If you experience signs of stomach bleeding (e.g., severe stomach pain, black stools, vomiting blood, dizziness), get immediate medical attention.
Thyroid: If you have hypothyroidism due to removal of thyroid gland, you may need closer monitoring of your thyroid levels. Let your doctor know if you are experiencing unusual tiredness, weight gain, hair loss, unusually dry skin, mood changes, and intolerance to cold temperatures.
Tumour lysis syndrome: Imatinib, like many other cancer medications, causes many cancer cells to be suddenly killed when treatment is first started. This can overwhelm the body with waste products from the cells. As a result, the body may not be able to keep up with getting rid of all the waste. When this happens, you may experience nausea and shortness of breath, and notice cloudy urine or joint pain. This is called tumour lysis syndrome. Your doctor may prescribe some medications to help your body get rid of the waste products. Make sure you understand how to use these medications and report any of these signs or symptoms to your doctor immediately.
Pregnancy: This medication should not be used during pregnancy unless the benefits outweigh the risks. If you become pregnant while taking this medication, contact your doctor immediately. Women of childbearing age who are taking imatinib should use an effective method of birth control during treatment.
Breast-feeding: This medication passes into breast milk. If you are a breast-feeding mother and are taking imatinib, it may affect your baby. Talk to your doctor about whether you should continue breast-feeding.
Children: The safety and effectiveness of using this medication have not been established for children less than 2 years of age. Growth may be slowed in children and adolescents that take this medication.
Seniors: Seniors have a greater risk of fluid retention than younger patients. Contact your doctor if you experience a sudden increase in weight or swelling of the ankles, lower legs, or hands. Your doctor will weigh and monitor you closely.

These medicines
are taken in tablet form (oral). They are taken
in low dosages at first. The dose may be adjusted if the uric acid
level is still not low enough.
Allopurinol and febuxostat
have different chemical structures, but they both prevent the release of a substance called
xanthine oxidase, which helps in the formation of uric acid. In treatment for
gout, these drugs block the production of
uric acid in the body.
Xanthine oxidase inhibitors may be prescribed to
prevent gout attacks. They also may be used because of:
Allopurinol may also be used for the prevention of kidney
disease in people going through treatment for cancer.
The dose of
xanthine oxidase inhibitors may need to be lower for people who have chronic kidney disease.
Allopurinol is not recommended for people who have a known sensitivity to
Xanthine oxidase inhibitors should not be started for the first time by
people who are still having symptoms caused by a gout attack.
Xanthine oxidase inhibitors lower the amount of
uric acid in the body.1 After the proper dose is
reached, the uric acid levels should return to normal. Your doctor will monitor
your uric acid level within one month of starting or changing a dose of
a xanthine oxidase inhibitor.
Treatment with xanthine oxidase inhibitors can reduce the size of
All medicines have side effects. But many people don't feel the side effects, or they are able to deal with them. Ask your pharmacist about the side effects of each medicine you take. Side effects are also listed in the information that comes with your medicine.
Here are some important things to think about:
Call 911 or other emergency services right away if you have:
Call your doctor if you have:
Common side effects of allopurinol include:
Common side effects of febuxostat include:
Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not
available in all systems.)
Xanthine oxidase inhibitors interfere with many other medicines. They may
increase or decrease the levels of other medicines, which may raise the
toxicity of these medicines or reduce their effectiveness. Be sure your doctor knows about all prescription and over-the-counter medicines and dietary supplements you are taking.
Xanthine oxidase inhibitors should not be used until the
symptoms of a gout attack are gone. But if you are already taking one of these medicines,
continue to take it (even during an attack).
Gout attacks may
increase at first for some people who take allopurinol. To avoid this, doctors
may also prescribe either colchicine, which blocks the inflammation caused by uric
acid crystals, or low-dose nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). After uric acid levels have been normal for 6 to 12 months and no further attacks
occur, colchicine or NSAIDs can be discontinued.
Liver and kidney function studies may be done after a few months of using xanthine oxidase inhibitors. These studies can be repeated as needed.
Medicine is one of the many tools your doctor has to treat a health problem. Taking medicine as your doctor suggests will improve your health and may prevent future problems. If you don't take your medicines properly, you may be putting your health (and perhaps your life) at risk.
There are many reasons why people have trouble taking their medicine. But in most cases, there is something you can do. For suggestions on how to work around common problems, see the topic Taking Medicines as Prescribed.
If you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or trying to get pregnant, do not use any medicines unless your doctor tells you to. Some medicines can harm your baby. This includes prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, herbs, and supplements. And make sure that all your doctors know that you are pregnant, breast-feeding, or planning to get pregnant.
Follow-up care is a key part of your treatment and safety. Be sure to make and go to all appointments, and call your doctor if you are having problems. It's also a good idea to know your test results and keep a list of the medicines you take.

Publication Archive
This archive contains all documents published by cep over the last few years:
cepAdhoc: Incisive comment on current EU policy issues.
cepPolicyBrief: Concise 4-page reviews of EU proposals (Regulations, Directives, Green Papers, White Papers, Communications) – including a brief summary and economic and legal assessments.
cepInput: Impulse to current discussions of EU policies.
cepStudy: Comprehensive examination of EU policy proposals affecting the economy.
The EU Commission wants to improve the qualifications of professional drivers of lorries and buses and amend the corresponding Directive. In cep's view, a more precise definition of the vehicles whose drivers are exempt from the Professional Drivers Qualification Directive, will help to create a level playing field.
The EU Commission wants to change the obligations of the social insurance systems to provide benefits for EU citizens residing in other EU countries. Thus rights acquired in various different Member States can be exported. cep welcomes the fact that payment of unemployment benefit for a period of six months means an unemployed person can spend longer looking for work in another EU country.
Global female migration is a topic frequently studied in academic literature however; the topic of female brain drain is one that has long been neglected by academic research.
The aim of this report is to gather all available information on female brain drain in Poland and Germany and its impact on labour markets, gender equality, female migration, and human capital, while noting the gaps in data and policymaking.
The recast of the Electricity Market Directive aims to give consumers a stronger influence on the retail electricity market and generally protect the market against state intervention. In cep's view, however, it is misguided for electricity suppliers to have to offer tariffs with dynamic electricity prices when there is no corresponding demand.
The EU Commission wants to create a level playing field for providers of conventional and new types of electronic communications services (OTT services) and largely harmonise end-user rights. In cep's view, there is however no justification for the many proposed exceptions for number-independent interpersonal communications services in the area of end-user rights.
The share of renewable energy in overall EU energy consumption is to increase to 27% by 2030. This is set out in the EU Commission's Proposal for a Directive to promote energy from renewable sources ("renewables") post-2021. In cep's view, the Proposal allows Member States too much scope for developing inefficient and anti-competitive renewables support schemes.
The EU Commission wants to ensure that the energy efficiency of buildings is further increased. The proposed amendment to the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive is intended to remove "cumbersome" provisions and speed up the energy-related renovation of existing buildings. In cep's view, linking financial support for building renovation to the energy savings achieved, is an improvement on the status quo.
On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the signing of the Treaty of Rome, cep makes an appeal to national and EU politicians as well as to EU citizens.
Based on the realisation that Europe can only succeed together, cep provides a reminder of what has been achieved in the last 60 years, refers to the crises that are currently sending shock waves through the continent and then looks to the future.

HTC DROID Incredible 4G LTE Pictures
HTC DROID Incredible 4G LTE is the newest addition to the Droid family. It's a decent device, but seems a bit short on specs for the price. Judge for yourself: it's got a 0.46-inch thin frame, a 4-inch qHD LCD screen, a 1.2GHz dual-core processor backed up with 1GB of RAM, and an 8-megapixel rear camera captures 1080p video, while there's also a front-facing VGA shooter, good for video conferencing. All of this runs on the latest Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich skinned up with HTC Sense 4.0.

Let $\xi$ be a Poisson Random Measure of intensity $\mu$ (informally $\mathbb E\xi = \mu$).
(For $f \ge 0$, say) when does $\xi f = \infty?$ Kallenberg (Foundations of Modern Probabilility) claims the following:
- $\xi f$ exists iff $\mu(|f| \wedge 1) < \infty$.
It's certainly a basic result on Poisson Random Measure that $\mu(|f| \wedge 1) < \infty$ implies $\xi f < \infty$ a.s.. However, he doesn't actually seem to prove the converse, and I'm not sure what he means by the converse either. It could be either of
- $\mathbb P(\xi f < \infty) = 1$ implies $\mu(|f| \wedge 1) < \infty$
- $\mathbb P(\xi f < \infty) > 0$ implies $\mu(|f| \wedge 1) < \infty$
although perhaps these two are equivalent by Kolmogorov's 0-1 law.
Can anyone shed any light on how to prove the converse, or point me to a better reference for Poisson Random Measure?

Photo Gallery: Blue Rooms
See how this hue can freshen up your home.
Photo Gallery: Blue Rooms
A matching door gives the illusion of a larger wall.
Move away from the expected gallery-white art wall and saturate a single wall, including any doors and trim, in a bold, can't-be-missed colour, like this cobalt blue. Carry the display across by painting out a door for a hidden-passage feel. A canary yellow settee cranks up the contrast and also draws attention away from the door.
See more rooms with colourful painted trims and rooms with jewel tones.
In this open-concept kitchen, a rustic maple table is paired with Gio Ponti's Superleggera chairs and a mod pendant light.
Cabinets in Benjamin Moore's Brittania Blue (1623) strike a modern, Scandinavian note. To get this crisp look for less, paint big-box store beadboard cabinets a strong hue for impact and forego upper cabinets in favour of open shelves housing pretty dishes.
See more photos of Alexandra and Eliot Angle's gorgeous Cape Breton Island saltbox cottage in the June 2009 issue.
Patterned blue wallpaper makes a charming table runner in an otherwise streamlined space.
Custom-made Parson-style chairs are slightly lower than the average dining chair, so they can be used as extra seating in an adjacent living room. A modern chandelier adds sparkle.
A bright rug warms up a mid-century modern dining set.
This pre-fabricated luxury Nexterra home was assembled in just one day. Designer Laura Felstiner introduced colour to the modern interior through artwork, throw pillows and a bright blue rug. The LEED platinum certified prefab home was also outfitted with green features like cork, reclaimed wood furniture and finishes from recycled materials.
See more Blue Rooms in our photo gallery.
A pastel hue has a calming effect.
A reclaimed door makes a perfect dining table, and suits the wooden chairs and unfinished mantel perfectly. Use a colour in a piece of art to inspire wall paint.
A muted monochromatic palette allows the food to take centre stage.
In this country-style dining area, pretty white flowers mimic the delicate pattern in the wallpaper. A weathered wood cabinet with louvered doors and mismatched chairs add character while keeping the space casual.
Find more inspiration in our photo galleries of New French Country Style, Party-Ready Dining Rooms and Holiday Tables.
Pattern and seaside-inspired colour brings personality to this bright and airy space.
A daring mix of patterns used on the chair and bench cushions and carpet achieves a harmonious look in this sunny cottage breakfast room. The classic blue and white palette makes for a fresh, crisp aesthetic.
See more colour drenched rooms in our photo gallery.
Wallpapering behind open shelving adds character to any room.
Punchy teal-blue paint (a shade pulled from the wallpaper) makes a dramatic statement. White dishes and simple stainless steel hardware keep the cabinet from looking too cluttered.
A B.C. coastal home filled with breezy elegance.
This space bears all the hallmarks of Sarah Richardson's signature style and richly detailed, decorative aesthetic. The formality of the traditional dining room is tempered by whimsical patterned wallpaper in Tiffany-box blue. The chandelier, a Murano glass design, is a pared-down version of a more traditional lighting fixture. A mirrored sideboard adds an element of sparkle.
Vote for your favourite dining rooms in our gallery, honouring House & Home's 25th anniversary. See more pretty, Tiffany-inspired interiors in our photo gallery.
A breezy white room is grounded with a blue rug.
A dramatic black chandelier adds contrast to this mostly white cottage. Accents of blue in the rug, throw pillows and armchair lend a fresh feel.
A one-of-a-kind coffee table offers a sculptural note.
Lively injections of turquoise and flora and fauna motifs are recurrent themes in designer Karen von Hahn's formal living room. A shade of soft grey on the walls and couch keeps the overall look polished.
Find more inspiration in our Traditional Living Rooms photo gallery.
Reenergize a hallway or room by hanging striped wallpaper horizontally in the space below the chair rail, a trick that helps make narrow rooms feel wider.
To ensure an even look, position the paper so the lowest and highest stripes are the same colour; install the painted chair rail after the wallpaper has been hung. Then, match the wall's paint colour to the stripe.
See more rooms with colourful painted trims in our photo gallery.
Glass, mirror and rattan mix beautifully in this boho-chic sitting area.
A white sofa and faux-bois lamp look fresh against a deep-blue wall. A Moorish tile rug and painted rattan chairs create a global, eclectic atmosphere.
Swooping wicker chairs are like functional sculpture in this sitting area.
A maple window seat topped with a series of colourful cushions runs the width of the room, offering both seating and storage. Calm-blue walls, a patterned rug and a cable-knit pouf add colour and texture.
Cool-blue custom chairs by Sarah Richardson Design strike an elegant note in this living room design.
In the home of Andrea Lenczner of the fashion label Smythe, this space epitomizes personal style. The painting is by friend Michael Adamson, the collection of vases was a gift and the silver Arne Jacobson ashtray is a vintage piece.
A vibrant blue cotton rug and pillow liven up a sophisticated sitting area.
The high-gloss white mantel pops against a grey feature wall, painted one shade darker than the rest of the room to create depth. On-trend decorating touches, such as the zebra ottoman, vintage lamps with black shades and book-stuffed fireplace, add character.
See the rest of this quaint living room in the 2008 Makeovers special issue.
An eclectic room with mix and match colours.
Use colour-blocking to inject scale and character into a featureless room. Paint walls and baseboards a pale, powdery hue, then mimic old world moulding by taping out panels in the middle of each wall and painting these a darker shade of the base colour to create a sense of dimension.
See more Blue Rooms in our photo gallery.
This pretty bedroom design features graphic bedding, wooden side table lamps and eclectic furniture.
A tall bamboo screen, spray-painted bright blue, replaces a headboard and adds interest to the wall while pulling the eye upwards, emphasizing the room's high ceilings.
Industrial elements with cosy accents.
Traditional furniture and accessories are given an industrial feel with an exposed brick wall and pipes along the ceiling, while a fresh mix of blue and beige floral, trellis and herringbone patterned bedding add comfort and warmth.
Antique doors make for a rustic headboard.
Aqua-blue and green accents, a cosy throw, delicate bedside table lamps, a pastel striped rug and a pale blue coverlet and hat boxes soften the rustic wood and wicker elements.
Sleek furniture and a one-of-a-kind feature wall give this room timeless appeal.
One of our favourite decorating ideas for bliss in the bedroom: A hand-painted silk wallcovering adds a feminine touch behind a contemporary headboard. Mix-and-match bedding draws on the rug's soothing palette of taupes, robin's egg blue and chocolate brown.
A pretty and traditional main-floor bath.
With its petite sconces, subtle tree-print wallpaper and streamlined vanity, this powder room has a delicate and uncluttered appeal. Chrome accents bring a little sparkle to the compact room.
For more ideas, check out our gallery of 20 Small Bathrooms.
A cheerful yet calm sanctuary.
East meets West in this bright and breezy bathroom that brings together eclectic elements such as a ceramic Buddha, modern ottoman, and fibreglass clawfoot tub for a relaxing, spa-like feel.

Gracias a this hilarious Samsung SUPER BOWL commercial, word of the trademarklawpocalypse shall spread far and wide
At last, word of the trademarklawpocalypse will reach far and wide, by way of this Samsung commercial, to be aired during the SUPER BOWL:

IP and IK value
SCHURTER adapts the IK rating to the customer's requirements regarding ruggedized solutions. For the declaration of the mechanical impact we use the international IK ratings.
Swipe to the left and right for more options
Protection against intrusion of dust and water (IP-Code)
The IP Code is an International Protection Marking and classifies and rates the degree of protection provided against intrusion dust, accidental contact, and water by mechanical casings and electrical enclosures. The standard IEC 60529 aims to provide users more detailed information than vague marketing terms such as waterproof. The digits or characteristic numerals, indicate conformity with the conditions summarized in the tables below. Where there is no data available to specify a protection rating with regard to one of the criteria, the digit is replaced with the letter X. The digit 0 is used where no protection is provided.
For example, an electrical enclosure rated IP22 is protected against insertion of fingers and will not be damaged or become unsafe during a specified test in which it is exposed to vertically or nearly vertically dripping water. Another example, a HMI touch panel rated at IP58 is "dust resistant" and can be "immersed in 1.5 meters of freshwater for up to 30 minutes". IP22 or 2X are typical minimum requirements for the design of electrical accessories for indoor use.
The ratings for water ingress are not cumulative beyond IPX6. A device which is compliant with IPX7, covering immersion in water, need not be compliant with IPX5 or IPX6, covering exposure to water jets. A device which meets both tests is indicated by listing both tests separated by a slash, e.g. IPX5/IPX7.
Structure Description for the IP code
The first digit indicates the level of protection that the enclosure provides against access to hazardous parts (e.g., electrical conductors, moving parts) and the ingress of solid foreign objects.
The second digit indicates the level of protection that the enclosure provides against harmful ingress of water.

PRI researcher Greg Dietl and two Cornell graduate students, Jansen Smith and Steve Durham, recently traveled to El Golfo de Santa Clara, Mexico in the northern Gulf of California as part of an NSF-funded RAPID project to collect baseline samples of benthic mollusk communities.
The samples Greg and his team collected will provide a benchmark for evaluating the success of the release of engineered pulse flows of the Colorado River that began in March as part of a landscape-scale experiment known as Minute 319 negotiated between the United States and Mexico to restore the spring floods that once reached the delta.

Lee Westwood was full of bluster and confidence on the eve of the Open Championship, claiming he had the patience required to conquer Royal St. George's and capture that elusive first major.
They looked hollow words on Friday as a second-round 73 for 4 over threatened to send a frustrated Westwood tumbling out of the tournament before the weekend.
With another high-profile Briton -- Northern Ireland's Graeme McDowell -- also struggling to make the cut after a seven-over 77 in his second round, the major players from the home nations weren't having things all their own way on the southeast coast.
Much had been expected of the second-ranked Westwood at Royal St. George's. A top-three finisher in all the majors, he ended Tiger Woods' 281-week reign as No. 1 in October and has been one of the world's most consistent performers in 2011.
However, he followed an opening-round 71, during which he had looked sullen and irritable, with another poor display.
Both of his rounds were played when the course conditions were at their most benign, making his performance at Sandwich even more disappointing. He was so unhappy with his second round that he refused to show up for scheduled interviews.
Attempting to shrug off the tag of best current player to not have won a major, Westwood started Friday like he meant business by making a birdie at the par-4 No. 1.
But a dropped shot at No. 2 was soon backed up by a double-bogey 6 at No. 8, and he was even par after the turn.
Just to rub salt in his wounds, playing partner Charl Schwartzel of South Africa -- one of the recent batch of major winners that Westwood is striving to emulate -- shot a 3-under 67, leaving the Masters champion in a good position on 2 under.
McDowell also looks to be on his way home early after finishing on 5 over, following an error-strewn second round where he failed to make a single birdie. The projected cut is 3 over.
The 2010 U.S. Open champion said he had come to the British Open in good form but with the wrong attitude.
"I just don't have that dig deep in me at the minute -- it's weird," McDowell said. "I've had half a dozen rounds in the high 70s this year. It's not me. I need to have a look at my mental approach a little bit.
"I'm not in the right frame of mind right now. There's something going on. Maybe my expectation level is putting a little too much pressure on myself."
With top-ranked Luke Donald of England and tournament favorite Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland shooting over-par scores in the first round, Britain could be looking elsewhere for the home champion.
Darren Clarke, the 42-year-old Northern Irishman widely regarded as the golfing mentor to U.S. champion McIlroy, is the clubhouse leader on 4 under.

So many choices to write about the new requirements for school lunches, the La Plata County Fair (in full swing), food preservation, recent fitness findings. ... Today, it will be a collage.
School lunches: When our students return to school in 12 days and go to the cafeteria, they will find the meals served will be bit different. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has made new stipulations by which school cafeterias must abide. For starters, be sure to fill out the requested document to apply for free or reduced lunches. It can help not only those families with tight budgets, but also provide for additional school funding overall. Information gathered is confidential, and each childs confidentiality is certainly respected.
As a result of new USDA requirements, there will be twice the amount of fruits and vegetables at breakfast as well as lunch; more whole grains and number of servings required will be more grade-specific. This year, high school students will receive at least two servings daily for lunch (10 to 12 servings per week), while the younger students will receive at least one serving per meal (eight to 10 servings per week). Meat or meat equivalent has now dropped to 1 ounce per day (it was 1½ to 2 ounces), and for high school, the requirement is now a minimum of 2 ounces daily for lunch. Milk will now be fat-free or 1 percent and must be unflavored. There will definitely be some creative work being done to feed the children.
County Fair: Not much to say on that other than enjoy the variety of opportunities and skills of our community residents.
Food preservation: Classes will be given later this month. With all the produce that is coming on right now there can be many ways to take advantage of it. Not everything needs to be canned, though there are some great alternatives. Check out www.laplataextension.org for details. Prices at national groceries are forecast to rise an average of 4 to 5 percent this year, and beef will dip before the prices start going up after the holidays. Any way savings can be achieved certainly helps in the long run.
Fitness findings: Is fit and fat better than skinny and unfit? Researchers are now finding that being fit trumps overweight or lean. People who were overweight and fit were two times less likely to die than lean and unfit people.
Routine exercise strengthens heart and lung function, bones and muscles, as well as processing oxygen. Overall, the greater the efficiency of these functions, the greater ones fitness. What experts are agreeing on is where the excess fat is located. Abdominal (visceral fat) is the concern and tends to increase. Men with a waist circumference larger than their hips experienced a 75 percent increase in death rate. For women, risk increased gradually with every inch of increased waist size. The reference numbers for greater concern are men with a waist circumference greater than 40 and women with waist circumference greater than 35.
The bottom line, however, is what one does with his or her body. Beginning in September, we will again offer the Strong Women, Strong Heart program as well as the Healthy You program. These are both excellent programs that result in significant health changes. Watch for details.

The terrain of Cochabamba, Bolivia is both breathtakingly beautiful and violently rugged. In the shadow of its snow-covered mountains are hundreds of arid rocky hills, where horses and cows perch as skillfully as mountain goats upon the steep slopes where people too make their homes. The high altitude (over 12,000 feet in some places!) leaves even the most skilled climbers breathless.
It takes most children over an hour to walk the winding gravel roads to school. Women who want or need to deliver their babies in a hospital typically face a three mile walk…while in labor…to the nearest health facility. The average income is just $450 a year.
This is obviously tough land to farm, so many men leave their families behind to migrate to Santa Cruz, Argentina, or even Spain in hopes of harvesting better crops and sending some money home. This leaves women and children vulnerable to poverty, malnutrition, dangerous living conditions, and even sexual exploitation. Some of these men return or send money; others never do.
Cinda, a soft-spoken woman with earnest eyes, who like most women in the country wears her long black hair in two braids down her back, had three little girls and several acres of land to tend when her husband abandoned the family. Although she had the skills she needed to harvest potatoes and beans, her planting time, yield, and variety were severely limited due to a lack of irrigation to her property. It would be difficult for her family to survive with only one adult tending the fields.
Cinda wasn't the only one facing a water problem. She and her neighbors lived beneath the snow-capped mountain called Hunu. To catch the runoff from the melted snow, residents had wisely built a damn, but it was inefficient, providing water for only a few dozen families, and stirring up strife between neighbors desperate for its live-saving waters.
Fortunately, Cinda and her family are part of a World Vision ADP (area development program).Her three girls have sponsors whose contributions are not only used to purchase school supplies and meals, but are also pooled together with other contributions to help solve community problems. Partnering with local leaders, World Vision helped the community build and maintain a better dam—a beautiful reservoir of deep blue beneath Hunu, capable of providing irrigation to ver 170 families and even stocked with fish for extra protein! The dam and irrigation system were designed by locals, built by locals, and are so well-maintained by locals that they have become completely self-sustaining with no funding from World Vision necessary.
Now water runs swiftly through Cinda's property, which not only yields several varieties of potatoes and beans, but also sustains a couple of llamas, a herd of sheep, and a noisy pig. In fact, Cinda produces enough crops to not only feed her own family but also to sell the excess at the market. Against all odds, she has become a successful farmer and businesswoman. It was all I could do to keep myself from throwing my arms around her and shouting "Woman of valor!"
What I love about World Vision's community development model is that it represents what you might call trickle-up economics. The individual needs of children reveal the needs of an entire community and so problems are solved from the ground up. What's even more impressive is how diligently the folks at World Vision work to get out of their own way and make projects self-sustaining.
Just down the road from Cinda lives a mother of eight who turned ten guinea pigs into nearly 70 with some basic training from World Vision and a determination to provide enough food for her family. (Yes, they eat them here...)
In a lot of ways, child sponsorship is like the Hunu dam. The people of the community provide the initial resources that with the help of World Vision and its child sponsors are efficiently pooled together to overflow like streams of living water to individual families in need.
If you're interested in being a part of this trickle-up system, please consider sponsoring a child by clicking on this link or on the banner below.
Just know that if you do, you may be sponsoring a dam as well!

This is a question that I am purely interested in because I think we never thought about this before in Mathematics education... or even so was not discussed.
When did we learn the Greek alphabets when we learnt mathematics? For example, I was pretty afraid when I saw $\text{Pressure} = h\rho g$ or even the idea where the variable for an angle was $\theta$ and that was when I was in 8th grade.
When I went to high school, I got even more confused when I saw letters like $\mu, \lambda, \sigma$ during statistics class. During calculus class, don't we remember the $\delta$ represnting small changes and our peers write it like a small d? Even only when I was in 4th year of college that I realize $\Sigma$ represents sum because Sigma and Sum start with 'S' and $\Pi$ represents produce because Pi and Product start with 'P' (it's for my memory but I'm not sure if it was taught this way.
So the question is: do we need to formally teach the Greek alphabet (not all but slowly) and tell them that researchers use these letters frequently to represent certain variables before we teach them? Of course, as student of math, we hardly (if ever) say $X$ follows a Poisson distribution with parameter $m$ or other correct, but "weird" sounding statements. I remember doing it during high school statistics... because I strongly believe that these "seemingly scary" letters "turn off" math students in the pre-college level.

Trainer Tools and Resources
I mean like the whole freaking map is red... can't escape.. no hiding places either... so wtf?
lol, had the same prob. happens if you use the trainer at the beginning and go rampage. Hiding places aren't unlocked yet and you're not supposed to survive anything above level 2 alarms. restart checkpoint.
i alrdy unlocked the hiding places... but at lvl 5 alert u can't use them... unless u unlock the lvl 4 escape perk... but u need to escape from 1 lvl 5 alert 1st... how???
But anyways i have looked for a trainer with a disable alarm function, then i saw the name (HAXOR) and said dont even try to download it. I wont download anything from that dirty ripper.
Then after a load of frustration i downloaded it anyways. Yes i know shame on me. But thank god the haxor trainer crashed my game several times. He cant even rip right.
So im back to the start. We schould pm cal or pwiz and ask them to either read this thread or implement an option which allows us to disable that blasted alarm.

text: KINSHASA, Congo (AP) - Rebels entrenched in the hills above one of eastern Congo's largest cities declared a ceasefire on Friday and began retreating from the frontline, the first indication that a joint United Nations and Congolese offensive might be gaining the upper hand in the conflict. But in a sign that the conflict could spill over the border, a large convoy of military vehicles loaded with troops, tanks, artillery cannons and heavy weaponry was seen leaving the capital of Rwanda, Congo's neighbor to the east, which is accused of funneling arms and troops to the M23 rebels. Rwandan leaders said they were acting to defend their border, after shells and rockets, allegedly fired from the Congolese side of the Rwanda-Congo border landed in Rwandan territory, killing a mother and seriously wounding her 2-month-old baby. Late Thursday, Rwanda's Foreign Minister Louise Mushikiwabo said on her official Twitter account 'Deliberate shelling of Rwandan territory unacceptable. Rwandan civilians are falling victims. A provocation that will no longer B tolerated.' On Friday, she Tweeted: 'Rwandan troops are not in DRC (yet); when they are, you will know.' The heightening of hostilities with Rwanda comes as Congolese and United Nations troops appear to be making significant gains against the M23 rebels. The U.N. intervention force has pounded the M23 rebel positions with attack helicopters and artillery fire. Reached by telephone, M23 president Bertrand Bisimwa said that his group was retreating and declaring a ceasefire in order 'to give peace a chance.' 'We have decided to decree a unilateral ceasefire and we have started pulling our forces out of Kanyaruchinya,' he told The Associated Press. 'This announcement, which was made unilaterally, is meant to allow the Congolese to return to the negotiating table.' In a statement Friday, United Nations spokesman Martin Nesirky said that - in addition to the village of Kanyaruchinya - the rebels had also vacated the village of Kibati and the area of Kibati Heights. Congolese military spokesman Col. Olivier Hamuli confirmed that the area of Kibati had been retaken, and said that combat was ongoing in Kibumba, around 30 kilometers (18 miles) from Goma. 'They announced (their ceasefire) when they realized that they were losing on the ground. I am just back from the frontline and they have suffered heavy losses. They have abandoned an arms depot with heavy weapons,' Hamuli said. 'They even abandoned a military vehicle which proves that they are quitting because if they are just retreating they should take their armaments with them.' In Congo's capital, Kinshasa, government spokesman Lambert Mende said the call for a ceasefire does not go far enough. 'It's our opinion that the only interesting proposition would be to see M23 demobilized, and to see them dissolve and cease all military action. Any other proposal is unacceptable,' said Mende, Congo's minister of information. The fighting, which began on Wednesday last week, has so far claimed the lives of one U.N. peacekeeper as well as at least 10 Congolese soldiers and 14 civilians who died from the shelling on either side of the Congo-Rwanda border. All but one of the civilian deaths from shelling was on Congolese territory, with the exception of a rocket which fell in the Rubavu district of Rwanda, just across the border, Thursday, killing a woman. Angry Rwandan officials claim the rocket was fired on purpose by Congolese troops in order to drag Rwanda into the conflict - a claim that was seen as deeply cynical by some, given the mounting evidence that the M23 rebels are in fact a Rwandan proxy force. A recent United Nations Group of Experts report describes how Rwandan soldiers sneak across the forested border in groups of up to 30 men to join the ranks of the M23, a group which is almost entire Tutsi, the ethnic group of Rwanda's ruling class. Previous U.N. reports have described the logistical support Rwanda is providing, including night vision goggles. Goma, a Congolese city of 1 million located on the Rwandan border, briefly fell to the M23 rebels last year in a humiliating blow both to the Congolese military, which barely put up a fight, and the thousands of United Nations peacekeepers stationed in the region, who stood by as the rebels entered the strategic town. They said they could not intervene because their mandate only permitted them to protect civilians. In response, the U.N. created the new intervention brigade which is authorized to directly combat the rebels. --- Rukmini Callimachi contributed to this report from Dakar, Senegal.

Subject: Building shell design
Hey, folks;
I'm about to start the process of building a building for a new room. My
current (rough) plan is to have a builder build only the outside walls and
roof, and I'll finish it out as I can afford to do so. The basic shape will
be a rectangle 40x50 with 15 foot walls, with a 25x25x15 addition on one
side. The main building will be divided in half, with a 25x40 half as a
tracking room and approx. the other half as a control room (10 feet for a
machine room and another iso booth would give me approx. 25x30 for the
control room) The addition would have toilets, a mechanical area, entrance,
If budget allows, I'd rather have a sloped roof (which would give me the
alternative of either putting a ceiling in at 15 feet, or making the
tracking room side a lot taller). My first two thoughts are to go with
either cinderblock or a basic wood and fame building. Since I'll be doing
all of those things that Everest suggests when finishing interiors, and the
building is in a pretty rural area, I'm not nearly as concerned about noise
as I might be in a city.
Since I'm not particularly good with tools, my plan is to find a builder
contract the whole shell out. The interior will be built out with a
combination of commercial workmen and trading out with local craftsmen who
are singers and players (I know - we've all done that...)
I assume that I've forgotten something that I'll need to make part of the
shell, and I'm asking for suggestions.
Electrical and HVAC will have a mechanical utility room, about 10X10.
Plumbing will be via a septic tank (either one for that building or tied to
the one for the house). Rather than floating the floor, I plan to have the
slab poured in sections with an acoustic barrier for the control room, HVAC,
and a drum booth. (This would be cheaper, I'm told, than cutting the slab
Does anyone have a rough idea about cost for block vs. a frame exterior?
Thanks for any ideas!

A dog that fell off a yacht and was presumed lost turned up on a desert island four months later, and has been reunited with her(gobsmacked) family.
The grey and black cattle dog was on the boat with its owners off Queensland, Australia, when she fell overboard. The family searched in vain, and figured the pup had drowned or been chomped by sharks, which the area is known for. But no. Apparently, Sophie Tucker (yep, that's the dog's name) swam more than six miles to St. Bees Island, a "a quiet volcanic strip of land fringed with reefs," the Daily Mail reports, where she survived for more than four months, hunting wild goats for food. No news on whether she befriended a volleyball.

Day-After Digest: Game 1 (Lightning 6, Capitals 3)
The Day-After Digest is a new series that will appear regularly after every Lightning game as part game recap, analysis and scouting report.
The Rundown
The Lightning opened the 2012-2013 season in highly entertaining fashion by racking up six goals, including three in the third period, to defeat their visiting division rivals in front of an exuberant sellout crowd. The Lightning never trailed but early penalty woes caused the ice to seem tilted towards their net in the first period and three squandered leads by the conclusion of the second period could have been cause for panic.
"A lot of emotions," captain Vinny Lecavalier said, "but we calmed down and I thought everybody played with a lot of poise."
Fans were treated to a thrilling blend of past, present and future as Lecavalier and Martin St. Louis combined for five points, Teddy Purcell notched three assists and Cory Conacher managed two points in his NHL debut. Eric Brewer, with two goals, doubled his total from all of last season.
After downplaying the need for getting off to a hot start and just wanting to see consistency in effort in Friday's press conference, coach Guy Boucher allowed after Saturday's contest that the home opener was "a pressure game" in that the players were eager to reward fans, especially the vast majority of the season ticket members who did not demand a refund during the lockout, with a memorable return.
Five players (Conacher, B.J. Crombeen, Anders Lindback, Benoit Pouliot and Sami Salo) played their first game with the team.
Prospect Watch
Game/Season Stats
Aulie was often partnered with Brian Lee, who saw several more minutes of ice time than him, but it'd be hard to imagine Lightning brass would be anything short of encouraged with what they saw from the young defenseman last night. Aulie was poised and decisive in his own end and in the neutral zone and even threw a bone to those fans eager to see one of Tampa Bay's big-bodied blueliners use their frame willfully with a heavy body-check in front of the Lightning bench during the first period.
"I need to bring toughness, I need to bring hits, get in their face and wear them down," Aulie said in reflecting on the play and his role, "I like it."
There were no fights in the contest but Aulie was in the thick of at least a couple post-whistle stare-downs and exchanges of pleasantries, which he said were just a matter of emotions running high.
Game/Season Stats
Conacher finished with a night to remember but his career in the NHL got off to a less-than-glorious start as his first shift ended abruptly after Brian Lee was whistled for an infraction, his very next shift was mostly spent chasing the opposition and soon after he received a big-league received a big-league body-check from none other than Alex Ovechkin before reaching the first intermission.
"It's nice to know I can get hit just about as hard as possible and still get up," Conacher said, adding, "I'm not scared. I'm sure I'm going to continue to get hit."
Conacher's fortunes, much like the Lighting's overall play, improved with the onset of the second period. Boucher talked throughout the past week about Conacher being relentless and, sure enough, his first career point, an assist on Martin St. Louis' first goal of the game, came as the result of his hustling and winning a race to a loose puck. His first career goal was largely the work of Teddy Purcell, who found an extra gear knifing through the neutral zone and into the Capitals end to spring a late-developing odd-man break, but Conacher raced into position to receive a backdoor feed that wasn't a sure bet with Holtby moving right-to-left in anticipation.
"He's not a project. You see speed, he's first on the puck and physicality doesn't faze him at all." Boucher said after the game. "He wants that net, he drives that net like it's a magnet for him and I love it."
By the Numbers
Boucher spoke Friday about there being "no experiments" in his defensive rotation and how pleased he was with the off-season additions and the top pairings. Tonight's usage bears that out. Matt Carle and Salo were the only two Lightning defensemen to crack 20 minutes of ice time as both accrued lots of time on power-play and penalty-kill units. Salo alone rang up 6+ minutes with the man-advantage. Victor Hedman was also used in all situations but, at 14:30, relied on the most at even-strength. An all-purpose workhorse last season who regularly skated 20+ minutes a night, Brewer's total came in at 18:18. He tied Carle for the most minutes played short-handed.
Shots on goal were 17-8 in favor of Washington at the end of the first period but there was a noticeable shift in momentum, at least in terms of which team was carrying the play, and Tampa Bay finished with a 34-30 advantage. The Lightning, which had just a single power play while taking three penalties in the first period, had six more opportunities with the man-advantage while allowing Washington just one more over the course of the final two frames. Boucher thought fatigue was an obvious factor and hit the Capitals players harder than his own. "We were less tired than them," he said, adding, "It's a credit to what they've done before [training camp] to stay ready."
Best of Boucher
"Teddy Purcell looked like a jet out there. He had a third skate."
Looking Ahead
The Lightning (1-0-0, 2 PTS) begin a two-game road trip with an early afternoon, 1 p.m. to be exact, match against the Islanders (0-1-0, 0 PTS). The two teams split last season's 4-game series between the two clubs but, while the Lightning opened this year with a victory, the Islanders lost a close match to the Devils on Saturday night.
It's no secret that the Islanders are top-heavy club and on Saturday night, New York got just 2 shots on goal from key cogs John Tavares and Matt Moulson, both of whom skated over 20 minutes, including 3+ minutes with the man-advantage. Frans Nielsen, Kyle Okposo and Michael Grabner present decent-enough secondary threats but, with Josh Bailey and Joey Joensuu injured and P.A. Parenteau, the club's breakout dynamo last season, now skating with Colorado, goals should be hard for the Isles to generate from up front if the Lightning can neutralize Tavares and Moulson.
Depth is also a problem for New York's blueline. New York leaned heavily on Travis Hamonic, their 23-year old crown jewel of the club's defensive corps, as well as Andrew MacDonald and Ron Hainsey against the Devils, each skating 25+ minutes with just Matt Carkner, Joe Finley and Brian Straight to round out the defensive corps. Thomas Hickey, recently claimed off of waivers from LA, and longtime Islander Radek Martinek, who played just 7 games last season with Columbus, were both scratched.
Goaltending may prove to be New York's position of strength, even accounting for the disaster that is Rick DiPietro. Evgeni Nabokov, who established himself as the club's workhorse with a solid half-season in 2011-2012, was excellent in net for New York's opener. Nabokov may have be prone to postseason meltdowns but he is almost always reliable in the regular season.
