3:14PM: "I have been looking forward to it, very curious as to how they would write it, yet also terrified about it," Jennifer Carpenter says in response to an opening salvo from a reporter asking for her gut reaction to Deb finding out about Dexter's extra-curricular activities at the end of last season.
3:16PM: Sad But True: Dexter coming out as a serial killer does make an endgame for the series a little more palpable and imminent. At least according to star Michael C. Hall who elaborates, "I think the plan is to do this season and a final eight season and really tell the story of the two of them negotiating their relationship in this new landscape. That much time feels about right."
3:17:PM "This is without a doubt the most fundamentally game changing development as we've had since we've started telling this story," explains Hall. "It has been so invigorating to play these scenes and to be preoccupied in ways that Dexter has never been. In a show's seventh season no less, it's pretty remarkable."
3:18PM: Jennifer Carpenter believes that dropping her script and swearing in the middle of her audition is what won her the part of Deb!
3:19PM: "I play Hannah McKay, who comes into the story in episode three," reveals Yvonne Strahovski of her first post-CHUCK role. "She crosses paths with Dexter when she begins to help the Miami Police Department on a cold case. Suffice it to say, her dark past will slowly be revealed as the episodes go on."
3:22PM: "This season feels as genuinely informed by everything that has come before it as anything we've ever done," says Hall on how this sixth seventh season is currently shaping up. "There's a real feeling that we've earned this arrival and new landscape and feels as rich as ever." Adds Carpenter, "It's very dangerous."
3:24PM: While pretty much a fait accompli, Michael C. Hall won't entirely close the door on the show continuing past its planned eight season. "I remember finishing the first season thinking we should probably just stop… what are we going to do now!?"
3:25PM: On a somewhat lighter note, Carpenter claims she would call the police right away if she ever discovered her sibling was a serial killer, while Hall would think it's ironic given his day job!
3:27PM: "As an easy solution to his problem, the thought has to at least cross his mind," says DEXTER executive producer Scott Buck on whether or not fans should consider the possibility that Deb's life might be in danger.
3:28PM: "I've never had a better scene partner than Jennifer. Her generosity, volatility of her performance, sense of danger she brings to the dynamic, commitment. sense of investment, I'm astonished watching her." says Hall of co-star Carpenter. " For her part, Carpenter returns the favor by revealing that "Michael sets the tone for the entire show" when asked about what exactly the talented twosome admire about one another.
3:34PM: "I think we knew we'd eventually tell the story but because it so dramatically changes the nature of the show we didn't want to consider it until we were closing in on an ending," says Scott Buck on whether or not Deb finding out about Dexter was something the writers considered earlier in the show's run.
3:37PM: "It was a little intimidating but it's exhilarating," Stahovski says on her transition from CHUCK to DEXTER. "I've watched every single episode in the three weeks since joining the show and now that I get to work with these these guys it's a beautiful experience and I'm honored to be a part of it."
3:39PM: In response to fans who remain on the fence about jumping back on the DEXTER bandwagon coming off what many have called the show's most disappointing season to date, Hall has this to say, "Whatever your opinion of ranking the seasons, for my money DEXTER is never more compelling than when he is in trouble and never been deeper trouble than he is now."
3:42PM: "He brings a real gravity, weight and complexity," Hall says of Ray Stevenson, who joins this show this season as the heave of a European organized crime syndicate. "He's playing a character who certainly has his darkness but uniqueness and nuance and he manages to convey it all in way that to the outside seems pretty effortless."
3:43PM: "It's certainly in our thoughts as we broke season seven," was Buck's response to the question pertaining to how much thought has gone into planning the eight and presumably final season while finishing up writing the show's seventh.

Sam Gagner was traded twice within 90 minutes Sunday night, first from the Edmonton Oilers to Tampa Bay and then from the Lightning to the Arizona Coyotes.
The Oilers got winger Teddy Purcell from the Lightning in exchange for centre Gagner. The Lightning then flipped him to the Coyotes along with tough guy B.J. Crombeen for a sixth-round pick.
Gagner has two years left on his contract at a cap hit of US$4.8 million. The 24-year-old had long been the subject of trade rumours with Edmonton mulling changes amid a long playoff drought.
Purcell, a 28-year-old right-winger, has two years left at a cap hit of $4.5 million. He had 12 goals and 30 assists in 81 games this past season.
The trade represents another change for the Oilers as general manager Craig MacTavish seeks to get a young core built around Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Taylor Hall and Jordan Eberle to the playoffs for the first time.
Drafting big German centre Leon Draisaitl third overall Friday night might have been enough to convince MacTavish it was time to move Gagner, whose no-trade clause was set to kick in July 1.
"I think (Draisaitl) helps us fill a need, gives us an opportunity to have a strong centreman with some size that can play ahead of or behind the Nuge, whatever way it works, and we'll give him that opportunity," director of amateur scouting Stu MacGregor said Saturday in Philadelphia.
Gagner, the sixth overall pick in 2007, had 10 goals and 27 assists in 67 games in 2013-14.
In his NHL career, all with Edmonton, the London, Ont., native has 295 points in 481 games.
Purcell, a native of St. John's, N.L., has 228 points in 401 career games and 18 in 22 playoff games.
By trading Purcell and Crombeen ($1.15 million), the Lightning cleared more than $5.5 million in salary-cap space two days before the start of the free-agent period. Tampa Bay is believed to be targeting a right-handed-shooting defenceman.
In Gagner, the Coyotes get a centre to replace Mike Ribeiro, who was bought out for what general manager Don Maloney termed as "behavioural issues."
"We are very pleased to acquire a talented, young centre like Sam Gagner," Maloney said in a statement. "He has the intelligence, character and skill set we were looking for and we believe he has further growth in his game.
"We look forward to welcoming Sam to Arizona."

Beaverton Toyota Presents Edwards Center, Inc. With Sienna Mobility Van
Toyota Donates 100 Cars to 100 Nonprofits in 100 Days - Public Chose the Winners on Facebook
By: PR Newswire
Nov. 14, 2012 07:55 PM
BEAVERTON, Ore., Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Beaverton Toyota today presented a Sienna Mobility Van to Edwards Center, Inc. – a local nonprofit organization that is dedicated to giving people with disabilities the support they need to live and work in non-institutionalized settings – as part of the Toyota 100 Cars for Good program, a major philanthropic initiative in which the automaker is giving away 100 cars to 100 nonprofits over the course of 100 days, based on votes from the public. 100 Cars for Good is the first Toyota initiative that engages the public to determine how corporate philanthropic donations will be awarded.
During the voting phase, which began May 14, 2012, the 100 Cars for Good program profiles five finalists at www.100carsforgood.com. Individual members of the public are able to vote for which nonprofit they believe can do the most good with a new vehicle. The nonprofit with the most votes at the end of each day wins one of six Toyota models. Runners-up will each receive a $1,000 cash grant from Toyota.
"Beaverton Toyota has been proud to be a part of the Beaverton community for nearly 40 years," said Russ Humberston Jr., General Manager & Dealer of Beverton Toyota. "Throughout that time, we've supported the community in many ways, and we are delighted to be a part of the 100 Cars for Good program, and applaud the incredible work that the Edwards Center provides to our community."
Founded in 1972, the Edwards Center is one of the nation's first non-profit organizations dedicated to the independence and dignity of people with autism, cerebral palsy, mental retardation, epilepsy and other debilitating conditions. The unwavering mission of Edwards is to give people with disabilities the chance to live and work as most other Americans do—in non-institutionalized settings.
"At Toyota, we appreciate what a significant impact a new car can have for nonprofits in their work," noted Michael Rouse, vice president of diversity, philanthropy and community affairs for Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A. "All 100 of the winners of the 100 Cars for Good program are providing extraordinary and much-needed services, and we thank Beaverton Toyota for their role in delivering the Edwards Center vehicle to them to help with their important work."
A six-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty will also be provided for each vehicle, compliments of Toyota Financial Services. To learn more about the 100 Cars for Good program, please visit www.100carsforgood.com.

COMMUNITY hydro schemes to harness energy from the River Thames have hit delays.
Last year, it was announced that plans for 15 hydro power projects in the county could generate power for thousands of homes.
But while the first community scheme for a hydro power project at Osney Weir is due to finish in May – three months behind schedule – the second in Abingdon has hit further delays.
The plans ran into opposition last year when kayakers and canoeists raised concerns that they wouldn't be able to pass, while anglers said it could harm fish.
But now it has been announced the Abingdon project, which could generate enough power for 120 homes, has been delayed for another year because of the floods.
A contractor for the building project has not yet been picked because they could not access the site over the winter following bad flooding.
The hold-up means work cannot start this year and be completed before winter, when rising river levels would make progress impossible.
Secretary of Abingdon Hydro Richard Riggs said: "It is frustrating, but we do have to get it right – we don't want to get it wrong and be disappointed for years afterwards.
"I feel that we are something of an example to others and they want us to succeed. It is a big project so it is important to set the example."
Plans for another community hydro scheme on the River Thames between Culham and Sutton Courtenay have been unveiled.
And with an expert hydro engineer behind them, residents are confident the scheme will be running within five years.
Culham resident Henry Reily-Collins, 29, co-founded engineering company Hallidays Hydropower in 2007, which is based in Dorchester-on-Thames.
He said: "It has been a life ambition. I remember as a toddler walking across those weirs and feeling that energy and dreaming of being able to harness it.
"Over the last couple of years we have been taking it from an idea to a reality – now people are getting excited.
"I'm running this as a community project – we want people to step in and take the reins."
The £2m project would see two Archimedes' screws installed in one of six weirs between the two villages.
The money would be raised by community shares and the energy would be enough power for 300 homes a year.
A steering group of people from the two villages is being formed.
An application to build the hydro scheme has been submitted to the Environment Agency.
In the pipeline
THE Environment Agency is dealing with 15 hydro schemes on the River Thames in Oxfordshire.
Two – at Osney Mill, Oxford, and at Henley – are operational.
Permits have been granted for hydro schemes at Shiplake Mill, Osney Weir, Abingdon Weir and Buscot Weir.
But the first of the community schemes is at Osney Weir.
The remaining 13 are still in the planning stage or still being built, including the schemes at Culham, Goring, Sandford, Days Weir near Wallingford, and Godstow Weir in Wolvercote.
Details of the other private sites will not be known until a formal application has been submitted to the EA.

PEEKSKILL, N.Y. -- A groundbreaking ceremony was held Thursday for Gateway Townhouses, which will feature 16 townhouses on Main Street in Peekskill.
The Ginsburg development, at 700 Main St., will feature 16 rowhouse townhome-style condominiums with a selection of triplex two- and three-bedroom homes ranging in size from 1,649 square feet to 1,915 square feet.
Fourteen of the townhomes will be sold at market rate prices, starting at $275,000 and two units will be offered as affordable workforce housing for those making up to 80% of the Westchester County Median Income, with a sales price of approximately $240,000.
Mayor Frank Catalina said it was the first new construction in this part of Main Street in over 65 years.
"I cannot express my joy and excitement at the commencement of this project," Catalina said.
Sales are expected to begin in the Summer of 2018.

Yeah, strangely enough. I'm not really saying its not powerful - in theory it's what you said. In practice the fight is over before you can capitalize on the benefits way too often (in my expirience). A utility effect of some sort would have me picking it up more often.
Sidestepper wrote:Back in the day, when the Sensation Stone was worth 300 (I think) and orcs had stacking bonuses, we called the conversion seal + stone + orc combo the "Storc." Or at least some of us did. Or maybe it was just me.
I do feel you on the issue of the wraps and the fierey sword having the same problem as the Fine Sword and Trisword. Both are good items worth having but also do very nearly the same thing. I tolerate them both in my pool because the niche they fill is so good that it's worth having two shots but I still wish they played more differently than they did.
And this primarily, if both of them got a small different utility effect it would also be alleviated. Because right now we sort of have 2 iterations of a very powerful but niche ability.

Nurse in Duchess hoax call found dead
Jacintha Saldanha was discovered unconscious outside the King Edward VII Hospital in London on Friday (07Dec12), just two days after she was duped by a headline-grabbing practical joke staged by two radio hosts pretending to be members of the royal family.
Paramedics tried to revive her, but she was pronounced dead at the scene.
A statement from a hospital spokesperson reads, "It is with very deep sadness that we confirm the tragic death of a member of our nursing staff, Jacintha Saldanha. Jacintha had worked at the King Edward VII Hospital for more than four years. She was an excellent nurse, well respected and popular with all of her colleagues. We can confirm that Jacintha was recently the victim of a hoax call to the hospital. The hospital had been supporting her throughout this difficult time."
Australian DJs Mel Greig and Michael Christian phoned the private hospital, where Catherine was receiving treatment for a nasty bout of morning sickness, to obtain private medical information about Prince William's pregnant wife as part of a practical joke on Tuesday (04Dec12).
William and Catherine have released a statement to voice their sadness after hearing of the tragedy and sent their condolences to Saldanha's loved ones.
The statement reads, "The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are deeply saddened to learn of the death of Jacintha Saldanha. Their Royal Highnesses were looked after so wonderfully well during their time at the hospital and their thoughts and prayers are with Jacintha Saldanha her family, friends and colleagues."
The royal couple revealed their baby news to the world on Monday (03Dec12), shortly after the Duchess checked into the hospital.

We were as surprised as anyone when Archbishop Pietro Sambi, the Vatican's apostolic nuncio — read ambassador — to the United States, today gave out a detailed itinerary of Pope Benedict XVI's trip to the United States next April.
Typically, the nuncio's address to the U.S. bishops on the opening day of the bishops' fall general meeting doesn't make such big news. We always cover the talk — here's a link to our story on an address by Archbishop Sambi last year — because the nuncio's words often offer an important glimpse into the Vatican's thinking on a variety of issues or simply give an encouraging word to the bishops on their work.
But I can't remember the last time when the secular dailies did anything on the nuncio's address. Let's hope for their sake that their reporters at the meeting in Baltimore weren't taking an early coffee break because they thought the speech wouldn't be "news," even though there had been numerous reports that the trip itinerary might be on Pope Benedict's desk.

Found a Chinese blog dedicated to Kallen, with episode reviews, interview summaries, magazine translations etc.
No reposting please.

while i have always liked tsundere characters kallen has became one of my all time fav chactarers in anime period
and for a while now i have wondered why that is since she wasnt my fav character in season 1 (not even my fav female)
infact i found her somewhat annoying as little more then a one trick pony (zero's 1# fangirl)
this season however she has become my fav female character very early on (owing partly to C.C being somewhat less interesting then she was in season 1, and later on to kallens own development)
and around ep 18 she became my fav character in show (kicking lelouch from the 1# spot)
which was somewhat odd to me at first since like i said i didnt like her at first
but then i remembered the one other character which i have had a very similer expiriance with in a diffrent but equally awesome anime (IMO)
that character is caska from berserk who also started out annoying the hell out of me for the first half of the show (season one of code geass) and turned into my favorite character later on
and kallen's development this season (and in fact both seasons) mirrors much of caska's
Spoiler for berserk spoilers and code geass plot comperassion:
all in all caska is probably one of my top five female characters in anime history and kallen (if they dont royally cock up the ending) would probably be added to that list
and with their development being so similer (IMO) i just wanted to point it out
they even shift focus from badass fighter to romantic love interest around the half way point (while still being total badasses)
it also shows how a kalulu ending is possible rather easily (just hope it doesnt end like berserk did)

her one great flaw was that she was always a follower
shes strong and brave and all
but she always needed zero to tell her what to do
hopefully that would change now

Ok with Linkinthestreet, in R2, conditions weren't the same and she didn't have no more to stay out of Lelouch's secret, since she finally learned he was Zero.
I love her since S1, personnally, her relationship with Lelouch's Ashford, Shirley, and others, were pure win in my eyes, and her entire character as well; The second part of S1 really disappointed me, when she was pushing away because they planned R2. (And her little moment of apparition were the better to me...)
Happy to see she finally takes back an even more shinning role than in first half of
Conclusion ; I loved her in S1, and I'm in love with her in R2 :P
I really hope her final will be as much good as her role in the serie. Don't screw with her character, Taniguchi !

Hmm, Kallen's been my favourite character ever since S1...
In R2...well, I've always growled "Hey, stay away from that Siscon"
and it didn't work...(LOL)
But it's great that they gave her a more...essential role in R2. Without Kallen I'd probably not be watching it~

Like I just said there man. That magazine is using information they have put out. Considering the information gained in AV interview about Kallen choosing to do things on her own, I don't believe she'll be with this group for long.

The interview I'm speaking of has the VA stating Kallen's motivations as told to her by the director. As that this is from the director to a VA, I believe information gained by this interview would take higher precedence over a generalized plot article in a magazine.

Rated 1 out of 5 by NickUrfe from Multiple Malfunctions – No Accountability I bought a Polyscience Creative four years ago, and after about two years of use, an overheating wire caused a short circuit. Given the cost of the unit compared to other circulators on the market, I was really upset. Polyscience paid for the repair, promising to upgrade the unit if I experienced another problem. Two weeks ago, my unit shorted AGAIN: the exact same wire in the same location, in spite of Polyscience adding insulated sleeves to the wire. There's clearly a design problem here, with this happening twice to me, and being well-documented by other reviewers. Well, Polyscience reneged on its offer for an upgrade and insisted on charging me almost $200 for the repair. Given the cost of this unit, I would recommend that you buy two Joules or Anovas, where each company is well-regarded for its customer service, than to waste your money on a product destined to break and to cost you the price of one of the other units in repairs. Bad design, bad customer service. Buyer beware.Date published: 2016-10-05Rated 3 out of 5 by Weinstein from Poorly manufactured I bought this product at SW. After a month of use the electrical cord started to short out and it stopped working. Replaced by SW. After another few weeks of use, the case started to warp and the seams opened. This time I contacted PolyScience and after sending them photos of the warping case and a purchase receipt, they accepted it back and sent me a replacement which has been performing well for the past six months. If you look at customer reviews on Amazon you will find that many purchasers have had similar mechanical failures with this machine. Seems that manufacturing and quality control are very poor with PolyScience.Date published: 2016-04-23Rated 1 out of 5 by CarlN from Not built to last We used this device for a few months, and liked it so much we purchased a second one for use on our boat. Unfortunately, the second one started smoking 9 months after we bought it. Fortunately, it blew a breaker and shut off. This unit is not designed to be used for more than 12 hours at a time.This is unfortunate, because some recipes require sous vide cooking at up to 72 hours. So, if you want to make a nice Osso Bucco that cooks for 72 hours, this is not the machine for you. At this price point, it doesn't make much sense to buy this if it only lasts 9 months. You can get immersion cookers that cost under $200, which are more like a disposable unit.Date published: 2015-11-07Rated 2 out of 5 by steve415 from Worked for a year and a half, then burned out I have mixed feelings on this one. It has served me well for a while, but failed yesterday. It shorted and burned up inside the control unit, melting the case, and now it no longer heats up. (Photo of the insides attached.) Looking online, it sounds like a few other people had this problem, so I think I'll replace it with a different brand.Date published: 2015-08-24Rated 2 out of 5 by jhillmon from Broken after 17 months Worked great until it broke (outside of 12 month warranty). Insulation melted on power connector to the heater causing a short.

I love the fact that you can just clamp it on to whatever container is appropriate for what you are doing. It's easy to use, straightforward, it's an elegant design, and the accompanying documentation is clear and concise. It gets the water to temperature very quickly also My only nit is, as I think another reviewer mentioned, it would be nice if it somehow retained the previous temperature setting so you don't have to take the time to set the temperature each time you use it.Date published: 2013-09-18Rated 5 out of 5 by girl1der1975 from My husband's new favorite toy I bought this for my husband for his birthday and he absolutely loves it.

I previously used a makeshift sous vide set up (digital temperature probe and pot of water on the stove). That worked fine but needed constant attention to maintain the correct temp.

The first unit we received failed on the second use but WS was great about sending a replacement right away!

WASHINGTON — When Bud Shuster lorded over transportation decisions on Capitol Hill, Pennsylvania received hundreds of millions of dollars for road and bridge projects — many hand-picked by the state's lawmakers.
It was 1998, the federal government boasted a surplus and lawmakers were eager to attach their names to popular projects back home, like an overhaul of Route 412 that helped finance new possibilities for former steel property in south Bethlehem. Shuster, an Altoona-area congressman, wrote legislation that increased highway money over six years and passed with overwhelming bipartisan support.

Speed can be a spectacular thing to behold when it's happening on ice, but in a hockey game speed without puck sense or, worse, without grit, is like an empty suit.
Speed can be a spectacular thing to behold when it's happening on ice, but in a hockey game speed without puck sense or, worse, without grit, is like an empty suit.
So it was on Nov. 29, 2010, when, in a matter of 15 months, the Boston Bruins had traded away Matt Hunwick, Phil Kessel and Vladimir Sobotka, all elite skaters with easy acceleration, the natural kind of power that elevates expectations when those players are on the attack. With those wheels gone from the organization, The Standard-Times asked general manager Peter Chiarelli where that left the Bruins when it came to speed.
"Speed doesn't come easy for us, but we can get it through our system," said Chiarelli, who in a conference call announcing the last of those deals was referring to the basic strategy with which the Bruins play the game under the guidance of coach Claude Julien.
Chiarelli's refortification of his team's skating game hadn't come to the fruition it would in February 2011 when he acquired Tomas Kaberle, Chris Kelly and Rich Peverley in separate deadline deals, but by the end of that season the Bruins didn't look like a team that had dealt away its high-end velocity. They didn't look slow, only a happy kind of tired as they skated the Stanley Cup around the ice at Rogers Arena in Vancouver.
Nearly two years removed from their summer of glory, the Bruins enter tonight's game in Montreal (7:30, NBCSN, 98.5) with a 6-1-1 record, the top spot in the Eastern Conference and, despite their current injuries, no shortage of players who can skate with the fastest players in hockey.
"When a guy is small he's got to be generally fast to stay in the league, so just because we have bigger guys does not mean we are not a fast team," said Peverley, one of Boston's more noticeably quick movers. "I think just because we have some guys who are a little bit bigger doesn't necessarily mean that they're not fast. I think Nathan Horton's fast, I think (David) Krejci's line is pretty fast. They're big but they're fast."
Krejci is a classic finesse player whose physical forces always appear less than what they are because of his deft touch. Horton combines brute strength with a graceful stride that echoes Marc Messier, and anything more than a quick study of Milan Lucic shows a hulk of a player whose feet move very quickly off the dime.
Peverley's feet move as fast as anyone's, but he doesn't think he and Tyler Seguin are the only guys in black and gold who can generate a breeze on the ice.
"Everybody on Bergy's line is fast, and (Daniel) Paille might be one of the fastest guys in the league," said Peverley, referring to the trio centered by Patrice Bergeron with Seguin on his right and Brad Marchand on his left.
Paille, normally the left wing alongside Gregory Campbell, will not be with the team tonight in Montreal (he and Shawn Thornton remain on the trail back from respective eye and head injuries). But the Bruins will want to use all the speed they can generate against the surprising Canadiens (6-2), who are rebuilding faster than any team that replaced its GM and coach in the last year should.
"They've got some good speed, (Brian) Gionta, guys like that, (David) Desharnais, they're not very big but they're gritty and they're quick and they're fast. And sometimes those kind of guys give us some issues," said Julien, noting the return of Andrei Markov on defense and Max Pacioretty to the forward lines. "I think the biggest thing is we've got to approach the game a lot like we did with Toronto. If you give them some room through the neutral zone and some speed, they become very dangerous. We've got to make sure we don't get caught deep in their own end and an opportunity to attack with 3-on-2's."
The Canadiens haven't changed all that much from a decade ago, but the Bruins have.
They may not look pretty by comparison, but Julien uses the speed in his lineup to impose stress and strain on the opponent, however subtle its appearance. The puck goes to the corner of the rink, and the Bruins get there first often enough to force penalties if not create a scoring chance. Although Seguin or Horton may make a spectacular individual play, Boston's speed is usually a matter of accelerating their blue-collar game.
"Well maybe some teams try to score more off the rush, but for us I think we're trying to — you want to score off the rush, but you want to be good in their zone, holding onto the pucks. And that's a good defense, when you're holding onto the puck and creating chances down low," said Peverley.
It may not look like Bobby Orr killing a penalty with his own personal game of keep-away, and it may not look like Guy Lafleur motoring up the wing for a shot at the net, but the Bruins' brand of speed is effective and intelligent. It involves all five skaters and exploits every tweak in the rules, from the two-line pass to the trapezoid confining the goalie's ability to roam behind his own net.
The speed of the Canadiens (aka. the Flying Frenchmen) is at the core of their identity as a hockey club, but the stereotypical matchup of the Bruins being big and bad and the Canadiens small and skilled is no longer accurate.
"I think it's going to be a great game," said Peverley. "We always have great games against them, and I think Carey Price is one of the best goalies in the league. They've got some guys playing really well and they've added some big bodies up there. You generally think they're small and fast, but they've got guys that can carry a big load."
On his second go-round behind the Montreal bench, coach Michel Therrien hopes to discombobulate the Bruins' team defense as the Habs did 11 years ago when Therrien was coaching them in a prior tenure.
The Bruins entered the 2002 playoffs at the height of their Joe Thornton-based powers. They still had Bill Guerin and had just brought in Marty Lapointe. Seeded first in the Eastern Conference and second in the NHL to eventual champion Detroit, Boston was a heavy favorite against the eighth seed. But their row of redwood trees on defense couldn't move laterally the way the Canadiens threw the puck from wing to wing and back. Their speed frustrated the Bruins, who would blame a six-game series loss on goaltender Jose Theodore.
The Canadiens are once again a fast team. They're the ones trying to use speed to stress the Bruins, particularly when Zdeno Chara is logging his 25-28 minutes of ice time. They, and over 21,000 attendees hope this game will begin a new era in the rivalry that looks a lot like an old one.
Chara, Johnny Boychuk and Dennis Seidenberg will have their hands full in a Bell Centre rocking with adrenalin, but the speed game is different now because Boston has plenty of it as well and no weak links.

"Wild Horses"
on Sunday, September, 02, 2012 10:04 PM
I guess it's time to post this, now that I'm bringing up a lot of the topics this discusses in other threads.
(The "when does Flynn realize he's not going home?" thread here:
The "Taking yourself out of the equation-- yea or nay?" thread here:
Anyway, I've been sitting on this story for some time. In part it's because I've not had time to perfect the recording of the song it's based on, and unfortunately, I don't know when I'll be able to as my recording computer was the Mac that belonged to my partner and when he moved last week, he took it, so there will be no more recording for me for... I don't know how long, unless my mom lets me use her Mac for the purpose at some point. So I apologize greatly for the bad quality. The first verse, especially, has absolutely terrible intonation and the vocal quality is, to say the least, lacking that day. The rest is a bit better, pitch-wise. So please excuse that and go easy on me. (I usually cover songs when I base a story off of them, because I get so emotionally into them that I can't imagine doing anything else. I'm not remotely Susan Boyle, but... the music matters to me.)
I've based it on the song
Wild Horses
. This was originally by the Rolling Stones, but I'm just not a Stones fan (the only song of theirs I like is
Paint It Black
) and I hate the Stones version of this song (IMO, it's way too flip. Yes, I know the way the original artist does a song is the "correct" interpretation, but still, I don't like it). I much prefer Susan Boyle's cover of it, and the mood of it (and she is just perfectly suited for it, IMO).
So, for your listening as you read (open music links in new tabs to listen while you read):
The cover version:
Susan's version:
After this, you may want to read a couple other stories of mine that are not companions per se, but they are sort of linked in my mind.

RE: "Wild Horses"
on Sunday, September, 02, 2012 10:07 PM
A lot was going through Kevin Flynn's mind as he sat in meditation on the Solar Sailer. It wasn't that he hadn't already been thinking a lot for the past thousand-some cycles—twenty years—whatever you wanted to call it. But now, more than ever, he was forced to consider exactly the thing he'd tried not to give a too-thorough examination in all those years...what had happened with Clu.
Of course he'd thought about it. If one thing was true, it was that he'd had plenty of time to think. But delving into it too deeply was more than a little painful, and even after all this time, he just wasn't ready.
Was that why he had never really considered opposing Clu? Because coming up with a plan would mean he would have to carefully examine exactly why the once-promising program had gone astray, and admit his own role in the matter? Sam's arrival here, and his seemingly-rash actions, had forced Flynn's hand on a lot of things...not least of all this: Flynn's fear of his own thoughts and the truth that might lie within them. Yes, for all the time he had spent meditating over the cycles—not an activity for those afraid of what they might find inside their own mind—it had to come to this to get him to truly face the facts about Clu and consider how to make it right.
And perhaps there was also another reason he hadn't fought...
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted, well I bought them for you
In many ways, Clu was still like a child. Well, yes... a program—even an advanced program—couldn't always be expected to grow intellectually in the ways a human being might. Especially without the defining life experiences a person would go through. In the Grid, life was different...there weren't always the same hardships and heartbreaks. Especially for Clu, in the hopeful early days of the system. Unfortunately, Clu hadn't had enough time to grow before he'd lashed out. Flynn could give Clu some of his personality traits and ideals, but he couldn't give him the wisdom that had come with living for 30-some years in a strange and imperfect world, with all the joy and pain and acumen that brought. Clu had never matured past the stage of seeing things only in black-and-white. His intellect hadn't had the chance to develop enough to discern the subtle patterns in shades of gray.
Perhaps Flynn should have been there more in the beginning. Perhaps he should've let Clu just...be....for longer than he had, before pushing the burden of running the entire system onto Clu's shoulders. Given him time to evolve and grow as all beings must do, the more experience they gain in the art of living. After all, he wouldn't have expected Sam to take over Encom at age ten or twelve. Why had he pushed Clu? Especially without being there to provide guidance?
In part, he had expected Clu to be too much like Tron. But he realized now that the two weren't the same. Tron wasn't a brand-new program, looking his user in the eye with the blind trust that only a young intellect could muster, needing someone else to tell him how things were. Tron had already been in the world for a lot of cycles before Flynn had even moved him to the new Grid. And, it could be said that Tron was a bit of a workaholic, completely devoted to the security and safety of the Grid, and not everyone was that single-minded or driven. It was like expecting a child to act as an adult, when the child hasn't had the life experiences and opportunity to grow and become the mature being an adult has learned to be.
Graceless lady, you know who I am
You know I can't let you just slide through my hands
Was there a way to fix this? He knew that if there was, he had to try. And maybe that was the true reason he had never left...because until he figured out a way he could make it up to Clu and show him a better path, he couldn't abandon the program he had created and then left too much to his own devices. He'd had a hand in what Clu had become, and he couldn't walk away from that responsibility, and he couldn't deny that he still cared about his former friend.
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain
And now you've decided to show me the same
But no sweeping exits or offstage lines
Could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Flynn waited for Sam and Quorra at the lightjet he'd commandeered, and hadn't much else to do but think more. He'd known Clu was unhappy. And Flynn knew even at the time that it was because he was gone so much. He hadn't been there when Clu had had questions or needed help. He had gone off to his happy, shiny life and left Clu to do the grunt work in the Grid. At the time, it hadn't really occurred to him that this was unfair and even a form of cruelty. He was too caught up, at first in the joy of his marriage and of his new son, and then later with his grief over Jordan's death and the trials of single parenthood, and with the wonder and pride at what Sam was growing into. It never crossed his mind that every time he spoke of Sam, he was reminding Clu that he had a real life in a bright world Clu would never see, while Clu would have to stay here and do the duties Flynn left behind to go live that life. No wonder Clu wanted to go there! If he was being honest with himself, Flynn had to wonder if Clu's true reason for wanting to dominate the real world wasn't so much a hunger for power and control as it was a desire to destroy the thing that had taken Flynn away so much.
And, while he was being truthful—might as well rip the wound open all the way—he had taken Clu for granted in just that manner. Treated him too much like a machine, there to serve him and do his work. And he should've known better, knowing what he did about programs and knowing they weren't mindless automatons of code to be used like objects. Flynn was deeply ashamed of this; some nights he'd been unable to sleep because of it.
It hadn't escaped Flynn's notice that when Clu had confronted him on the day everything changed, Clu had traded his Flynn-replica attire for something more personal. Of course he was tired of being a dim copy of Flynn—Flynn realized now, with that flash of insight that makes one want to smack the heel of one's hand against one's forehead; how obvious!-- and Flynn should have encouraged him to try to find his own identity from the start.
And all this was beside the fact that to Clu, who was the product of Flynn's mindset and intentions and ideals being captured at one small point in time...Flynn was the one pulling away. Abandoning the original plans and the purpose he'd given Clu. Betraying the Grid, to Clu's still-new and unmatured mind.
So how could he blame Clu? At least, he could not do so entirely. He wanted to speak with the angry program, take him in his arms and tell him he was sorry, that he hadn't been thinking for so long, he now understood what he'd done, and tell him that, yes, he had taken advantage of Clu and that was wrong. He couldn't be entirely angry. He couldn't write off the offended, resentful program when that resentment was in part his own fault.
That was when he decided.
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
I know I dreamt you a sin and a lie
And I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Pain has been suffered and tears must be cried
So let's do some living after we die
Flynn reached out to Clu. He could see the pain the program still carried, though he knew it must usually be locked up within where perhaps even Clu didn't know it existed. Perhaps he really could make it better. He had to. He'd spent far too many cycles hiding, allowing Clu to continue his cruel and selfish reign while programs suffered, allowing Clu to feel pain and betrayal for the injustice and abandonment and overexpectation and seeming deceit he had dealt to the bewildered program so long ago.
Flynn was so close to the thing he had dreamed about for twenty years. Mere yards away was the portal, his chance to return to the real world and the life he had loved....and his son, who no longer had to be lost to him. He was no longer trapped—not in the Grid, and not in his own mind, with its fear and doubt. But he couldn't leave until he at least tried to make this right. If anyone could make Clu see the light, it was him. If anyone could make reparation for all the cycles when he had hurt his creation and friend, it was him. Flynn longed to return to the real world, but he knew he would not be able to live in peace if he was always aware he'd left something undone here.
He spoke to Clu gently, apologetically. He couldn't find it in himself to be angry, or harsh, or to yell. Not in these circumstances. Not with Clu.
Clu was moving toward Flynn, his own arms outstretched. And for one hopeful instant, Flynn thought he could still repair all those years of pain and wrong. Then Clu lunged at him with a snarl, and that was the moment when Kevin Flynn knew for sure that he wasn't going home. It had been too long, and the damage had been done; it was too late to gain Clu's understanding and forgiveness now...and Sam would not be safe if he didn't act.
It felt almost surreal as he watched Clu discover that he had the wrong disc...make a run for the portal... Flynn took a deep breath and one last look at his son, then knelt, put one hand down, and concentrated all of his mind and energy on this one final act, the only way left to save Sam and Quorra, to redeem Clu and the Grid--and yes, himself--and make it all right. It took everything he had, but slowly, using the force of his entire will and all the love he could muster, he opened his arms and pulled Clu in; after the end, perhaps there was still some existence somewhere and they could still find redemption...

I'll have to check it out. I just know the Stones version annoys the hell out of me. The words strike me as a very sad song, by someone who's resigned to let a person they love walk all over them, essentially. Yet the way the Stones version is, the music seems way too happy to fit the words. Boyle's version brings out that trapped resignation so much better.
(Kind of like how the music for
O Mio Babbino Caro
seems too lovely to be about an angsty teenage girl threatening suicide over some guy... which may be why some singers don't seem to "get" it when they sing it, and why people play the music at weddings and such...)

CEOs have given the entire C-suite some responsibility for disruptive growth, yet no one is accountable. It is diluted and fractioned accountability at best. Ninety percent of companies have three or more C-suite leaders accountable for disruptive growth.
Yet, when asked who will be the first to go should growth targets not be met, 33+ percent of CEOs point to Chief Marketing Officers. If CMOs focus on disruptive growth, rather than mainly on traditional growth avenues, they have a chance to impact the bottom line in a heretofore unseen way—earning the key to that corner Chief Growth Officer (CGO) office.
Disruptive growth and digital are tightly tied. CMOs own the digital levers necessary to make disruptive growth a reality.
Only 36 percent of CMOs rank launching new business models or value chains as an extremely important priority. And just 34 percent cite establishing new partnerships with untraditional players as the same. Yet, CEOs are on the hot seat to show shareholders new sources of revenue. CMOs need to change their focus from traditional to disruptive sources of growth.
CMOs are actually well positioned to become Chief Growth Officers, as evidenced by the bevy of CGOs at major global brands who were formerly CMOs. Currently, the position is ripe for the taking, but opportunities such as this one have a shelf life. With swift, sure action, CMOs can capitalize on their window of opportunity.
As many companies look to create a CGO, CMOs should step forward to create the platforms that will catapult their companies forward to new business opportunities.
Making priorities disruptive by pivoting to an outcome orientation via platforms
Accepting clear responsibility for disruptive growth by establishing the Office of Disruptive Growth
As the troops assemble, clearly aligning the responsibilities of the Chief Marketing Officer, Chief Sales Officer, Chief Customer Officer and the head of digital business around traditional and disruptive growth. Defining and executing a disruptive growth strategy will require a matrixed relationship within the C-suite.

Far north Queensland residents are preparing for the worst as category five Cyclone Ita heads their way.
Ita was upgraded to a category five late on Thursday afternoon and is predicted to land north of Cooktown on Friday night, with a strong chance of coinciding with a 7pm high tide.
This will create dangerous storm surges, about 1.5 metres bigger than usual high tides, along a 240km stretch of coast from Port Douglas to Cape Melville, Queensland's Bureau of Meteorology says.
The bureau's senior forecaster Pradeep Singh says heavy rain will also trigger flash floods.
He said while Ita was intense, it's a smaller system and would move slower than category five Cyclone Yasi in 2011 and category four Cyclone Larry in 2006.
It's expected to bring 280km/h winds when it hits the coast, with 9000 people directly in its path.
Cooktown mayor Peter Scott said cyclone shelters were being put up Thursday night as winds of up to 100 km/hr were forecast to hit the town on Friday morning.
"It's coming in faster and bigger than we first thought it was going too," he said while boarding up windows of his family home.
Premier Campbell Newman has pleaded for campers and residents in low lying areas to seek safer shelter.
"There'll be lots of rain, 100mm of torrential rain. That means flooding of creeks and road crossings," he said.
"If it's flooded forget it. Please don't put your life at risk."
Staff and tourists have left Lizard Island, while 50 mine workers have already abandoned the Cape Flattery silica mine township, north of Cooktown.
Some residents north of Port Douglas have already evacuated their homes.
Local Dianne Fursdon says an eerie quiet feeling has enveloped Cooktown.
"It's really strange, everything has gone quiet," she told AAP.
"There's no bird sounds, no geckos and the ants are all crawling onto higher ground."
Ms Fursdon feels confident her home will withstand the storm as she's used five rolls of tape to secure windows.
"Maybe the roof will come off, but what the hell," she said with a smile.
"All I need is my plonk and I'll be fine."
Fourteen-year-old Kathleen Stevens, her aunt and great aunt were buying buckets and jerry cans to fill with water and fuel at the 11th hour.
They've been warned they may have to go without water and power for some time.
The family is hopeful their home can withstand the force of potentially destructive winds.
"But if it gets really bad we're going to head to the cyclone shelter," Kathleen told AAP.
"Or the bathroom because it's sturdy," her aunt Stacey Stevens added.
A cyclone watch has been declared for areas up to 300km inland, including Kalinga, Laura, Palmerville and Chillagoe.

Is Essence Mascara ($3.49) From Ulta Any Good?
12 comments:
- Anonymous said...
Almay has one that is VERY good! It called Eyelights or something. Get Black Steel (has small silver flecks in it) If you wanna pay over $20 Stila has one in a silver tube called like Major Major Lashes. Surprisingly New York Color at Rite Aid is good. Collosal Lashes (yellow tube either Maybelline or Covergirl works well if you apply it over their lennthing mascara [orange tube?] its faboluous!
- January 24, 2012 at 10:17 AM
- Jean said...
Wow, you must be a product junkie too, LOL! Thanks for the recommendations. I got some almay one time (white tube, forget the name) that was horrid. I only used it a handful of times and trashed it. It may have been old or something. I wonder if the Almay you recommended is better than the Collosal Lashes you also mentioned?

You take amazing pictures and you definitely captured that mascara. Awesome.

Beloved, welcome to the Blog! I hope I can help you find things you like & avoid things that are a waste of your hard earned money. Stick around!

I like it better than The Colossal Volume Express by Maybelline. Its called Almay Intense i-color. Also if you feel your mascara goes on thick or clumpy putthe tube in hot water while you do the rest of your make-up. When you get to your mascara it will be a nice smooth liquid. Both of these mascaras are good and Hard Candy is also good. It really really stays on.... but you can only get it at Wal-Mart..
- February 8, 2012 at 8:59 AM
- Jean said...
That's awesome advice to put the tube into hot water. Never would have thought of that. Also, thanks for the recommendation. I just got a fab deal on a sampler size of Benefit's They're Real, so that will be my next "try"...but maybe later on I'll get to the Almay you recommended. And I'll probably have to try out the water trick very soon on this Essence, because it seems to be getting clumpy quite quickly.
- February 8, 2012 at 10:16 PM
- Tamika Rybinski said...
Hi thanks for stopping by my blog. I didn't know they had Essence in the states. They have Essence here and there are like 6-7 different kinds of Mascara. I also used the one you tried, and it was my least favorite of theirs. Have you ever tried Lancome Precision?
- February 13, 2012 at 1:40 AM
- Jean said...
I've actually not tried *any* Lancome in ages. Wish I could score some of their products for reviewing. Maybe some day....

I think the mascara looks good on you and yes, the ad pictures are way overdone--clearly not human at all!
BTW I used to homeschool all my kids, now it's just the 3 youngest at home--well, 1 is a baby. I do miss it, but with 8 (yes, I have 8 kids!) it was a bit much for me with the other stuff I had to do! But glad you can do it--homeschooling rocks!
Following you back from VB!
- February 14, 2012 at 12:00 AM
- Jean said...
Thanks, Ang, for the compliment. And yes, homeschooling rocks, although it takes a lot out of me. It wasn't too hard when there was only one, then when there were two, I found I could still handle it handily. As the older one made it into high school, the middle one into upper elementary, and the 3rd child was added into the mix via preschool learning, it got more challenging. Now there's a senior, a middle schooler, a 1st grader, and a preschooler & sometimes I feel like I'm running in circles and nobody is learning anything! I don't know how ppl with large families (such as yours) do manage to homeschool. God bless 'em!

- Amazon Sunshine Deals - Over 600 books from traditional publishers priced from $0.99 - $2.99, which are gobbling up the the Amazon Top 100 rankings
- Amazon becoming a "real publisher" as evidenced by their hiring of Larry Kirshbaum and signing of Barry Eisler, Joe Konrath, and Barry Crouch
- Some slow down in the ebook %'s off the big 29.5% numbers of February's AAP numbers
- The discussion that never dies which is: a flood of "crappy books" will kill the book industry
Well we are FAR from "the end" of the good times brought on by the current climate in publishing. But I wanted to give my own opinions on the subject of change.
We can be certain of a few things:
- Change will come, it is the only certainty that we can count on.
- We can speculate what that change will look like. It's important to keep abreast what is going on and to keep your eyes open. If you wait until after it happens you'll have to play catch up.
- No one can be certain exactly what the future will look like, although many will bet on their soapboxes and proclaim they know for sure
- Those that are able to adjust to change quickly, will be more successful than those who clinging to the past
- Will it always be this great? I have no idea - this may be the "gold rush days" but it may be just the start of something even better. Recently I posted the great sales of one of my authors (at the time at about 10,000 a month) and mentioned it in a forum someone sniped back...but what makes you think those sales will continue...you can't count on that. My first response was you're right - the sales will probably increase...and they did - he finished out May with 17,700+ in sales.
- Maximize Opportunities: Times are great now, make the best of current environment. Remember the old saying of making hay while the sun shines?
- Continuous education: Keep yourself informed of the changes in the industry. You're already doing that by reading my blog but other great sources are: JA Konrath, Dean Wesley Smith, Kathryn Rusch, and David Gaughran. We won't always agree with one another but we spend a lot of time watching for trends and important information so stand on the shoulders of others who have already invested the time and effort.
- Be thankful: Times have never been better to be in writing. You are fortunate to be in the right place at the right time. Authors who have been in the business for decades no how hard it once was.
- Don't worry: Getting yourself tied up into knots about what may or may not come to pass is unproductive. Focus that energy to point #1 above.
- Embrace Challenges: Overcoming obstacles is far more rewarding than to have everything handed to you on a silver platter. I've always said that perseverance and determination is the best fuel to guarantee success. If you find a wall in front of you, go over it, dig under it, or find away around it. The only unacceptable option is to sit down before it.

SendGrid Celebrates 2nd Annual Denver Startup WeekJillian Wohlfarth

Clinical Trials and Research
The Movement Disorder Society of Australia Clinical Research and Trials Group (MDSACRTG) was established in 2001 as part of the Movement Disorder Society of Australia and New Zealand (MDSANZ).
It is comprised of neurologists and neuroscientists from more than 20 hospitals or research institutes in Australia and New Zealand that have a research interest in movement disorders, such as Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease and dystonia. The majority of members are clinicians who have experience in clinical and therapeutic trials.
The MDSACRTG subcommittee is responsible for administration and coordination of the MDSACRTG. Subcommittee members are elected from and by members of the MDSA for three years, with a representative chosen for each Australian state and New Zealand. The current chair of the MDSACRTG subcommittee (2015) is Tom Kimber.
MDSACRTG aims to:
- To facilitate communication between researchers interested in performing collaborative therapeutic (or human experimental) trials in Parkinson's disease/ movement disorders
- facilitate investigator-driven multi-centre therapeutic trials
- promote Australian participation in pharmaceutical industry-funded multi-centre Phase II and III studies.

Make adorable sock puppets from different colored socks to be the star of the show. Just add ears, eyes, glitter and more for individualizing puppets.
This is a really simple-to-make Puppet Theatre. Make it from a large cardboard box or an inexpensive Foam display board from an office supply store. Foldable and guaranteed to provide hours of fun for the kids.
Items needed:
- Large box or Foam Display board (foldable)
- Wood dowel or old broom handle (32" long)
- X-acto knife (only to be used by Adult)
- Pencil and Ruler
- Scissors
- Craft Foam
- 2 pillowcase for curtains (optional - use only one)
- Craft glue (tacky white)
- We used a foam display board, available at office supply stores for about $10-$12 It measured 36" tall and 24" wide in the front (sides are 12" wide). You may also cut apart a large box that is roughly this same size, so that you will have a front and two sides that will fold.
- Draw an opening that is (23 inches from the bottom) 9 inches high and 18 inches wide. This opening can either be squared off at the top or arched like ours. With a piece of board underneath the area to be cut out, carefully cut the opening with an X-acto knife. Children should be a distance away while this is being done.
- You will also have to cut a small hole (about the size of a cork) on each side piece, about an inch from the top. This is to slide the dowel through to hold the curtain. The hole should be about 5 inches back from the front edge.
- Using the craft foam, cut out pieces to decorate the theatre and attach with glue.
- For curtains, cut a two inch, skinny slit (at the closed end) on each side of the pillowcases. This will allow you to slide the pillowcases onto the dowel and then position the dowel into the side openings. If you prefer to only use one pillow case, you can cut the side and top of the case and then fold fabric out flat to make a larger piece of fabric. About an inch from the top, and about 4-5 inches apart, make holes just big enough so that the dowel will slide through. Cut a few slits to accomodate arms of puppeteer.

So let's take a look at how running backs have fared against the Bears lately.
St. Louis' Benny Cunningham (13 carries for 109 yards); Baltimore's Ray Rice (25-131); Detroit's Reggie Bush (14-105); Green Bay's Eddie Lacy (22-150); Washington's Alfred Morris (19-95); and the Giants' Brandon Jacobs (22-106).
While Morris was the only one of late not to crack 100 yards against the Bears defense — now ranked last in the league, allowing an average of 145.2 yards per game — his teammate and quarterback Robert Griffin III had 84 yards on the ground himself.
The Saints were the only team to not have a running back at least knock on the door of 100 yards in the Bears' last eight games.
So now let's look at who's next: Minnesota, and running back Adrian Peterson, who leads the league with 10 rushing TDs and is second with 997 yards on the ground.
"I don't really want to sit here and make any predictions," Peterson said. "I just want to contribute and do whatever it takes to help my team win. If that's 300 yards, perfect."
Even with a groin injury, that's not out of reach.
Offense clicking
The Bears offense is averaging 372.5 net yards per game this season, which is the sixth highest average in franchise history. Chicago has 4,097 net yards in the first 11 games, with 2,914 net passing and 1,183 net rushing. It is the most productive offense the team has had since 1956.
Quote of Week
Bears TE Martellus Bennett, on rebounding from a loss: "The best I ever heard of someone talking about adversity and dealing with it was Dory on Finding Nemo: 'Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming.' So that's what it comes down to. Everybody's just got to keep swimming."
Stat of Week
Vikings RB Adrian Peterson, who is averaging 107.7 yards per game against the Bears, has scored 14 rushing TDs versus Chicago, the most he has against any NFL opponent.
