Last weekend the Atlanta Thrashers held their annual Select A Seat event at Philips Arena. Many fans here and across the NHL world saw this as little more than a farce in light of the news that the team could be stripped from Georgia and jettisoned to Manitoba.
As you'll recall, I made a request of the current team owners to call off the event if the deal was in fact "done" and it simply is a matter of time before an announcement is made. I opined here that I firmly believed the Atlanta Spirit was simply looking for cover, knowing the turnout would be held down given the circumstances and they could then point to that as reason why they have "no choice" but to sell to TNSE. Thus, asked them to "do the right thing" by canceling it if they knew for a fact what so many here suspect, that the team is indeed gone.
Yeah, I know. Asking the most disingenuous and apathetic ownership cluster in professional sports to do the right thing is much like asking politicians to run a campaign free of mud slinging and personal attacks distorting their opponent's record… but I figured it was at least worth a shot, eh?
But they have yet another opportunity for the Spirit Boys do right by the hockey fans in Thrasherville, if the end is near for NHL hockey here. And it would be something that wouldn't even affect the wallets of the AS, LLC to do.
Randy Novak penned this open letter to the Atlanta Spirit, LLC and posted it up at Bird Watchers Anonymous. In it, Novak makes but one simple request here of the owners… he wants to see Dan Snyder's #37 jersey officially retired.
"My purpose today is to plead with you to do at least one right thing in this transaction for the fans. It's not something that's going to cost you much, if any, money, but it is something that will build some goodwill with the Hockey community in Atlanta.
Before you sign on the bottom line and send the team to Winnipeg, I plead with you to retire Dan Snyder's # 37 jersey and ask that the league and the new owners honor this retirement when the team relocates."
Novak's request and his delivery is, in my opinion, spot on. Regarding the Snyder situation and the possible retirement of his number, there is no need to rehash the "whats" and "what ifs" surrounding the current ownership situation. There have been pointing of fingers in blame leading up to this, and there will be more in days to come should the team make it's way to Winnipeg.
But in the spirit of decency, respect, honor and dignity, this is something the AS, LLC should not just give serious consideration to, it is something they should do and announce immediately. If they do, then I know all of us will stand as one and applaud such a gesture to Snyder and his family.
Even though no one has worn the #37 jersey for the Thrashers since Snyder's untimely death just prior to the 2003-04 season., the organization has opted to not officially retire it and hang it from the rafters. The only time the subject was even remotely addressed by the team since was when Rich Peverley was picked up off the waver wires in January of 2008. While playing with the Nashville Predators he wore #37 but chose to use #47 when informed of his former number's significance here.
So once again, Atlanta Spirit, you have been shown how to do the right thing here in regards to the team and it's fans. We anxiously await your response.

Well, that would finally be one thing they could truthfully claim as "the right thing to do". Look at the complete body of work, from the way they artfully dodged David McDavid right through to these negotiations. Rankin Smith's family will forever be indebted to lose the title of "worse owners in the history of Atlanta sports". Hands down.

Rawhide…..you are asking the occupants of dysfunction junction to be human beings. The way they have treated the fans and the team since they purchased it, is a disgrace. They care not for anything or anyone but themselves. Do you REALLY think they are going to give a crap about retiring the jersey of a player they did not care about, playing for a team they did not care about?
I'm sorry that the only thing you did in writing this blog post is waste some of your precious time….something that you will never, ever, get back. Oh, and you are also reinforcing what a$$#*!es they really are.
I am so sick of these jerks and our greedy Commissioner (who at one time I held in greet esteem for being a "Fans Commissioner") I just can no longer stand it. The blew smoke up our rear ends saying they were negotiating with a local group and blew even more smoke about the sale of the Hawks….no one in their right mind would buy a basketball team with a lockout looming….do they think we are all stupid? Oh, yea…I forgot. They do.

While this would be nice I really do not see thsi happening…will the Peggers do the same? Hard to say but the award has crossed my mind and I have wondered how the family feels about all of this?

The new ownership will not want any links to Thrashers. As a last ditch effort I emailed the Governor Deal since the the Atlanta mayor does not care if the Thrashers leave. I got this response below, so I called him and voiced my opinion. I hope others do as well.
Governor Deal has received your e-mail and appreciates hearing from you. You will receive a direct response from him shortly. With the very high volume of messages and mail, we hope you will understand if there is a delay in responding. If this is an urgent or time-sensitive matter, please call us directly at 404-656-1776.

As a Winnipegger, I would not have an issue with Snyder's Thrashers jersey hanging in the MTS Centre should the ASG not do the respectful thing and do it in Atlanta.
May 25th, 2011
11:32 am
well, isn't it time for something to go right? but they won't do it. you know why? because if / when the t-birds leave, they'll be stuck with the reality that basketball just doesn't sell well traditionally in this town. those slime-ridden no good idiots, how does one MISTAKENLY buy a hockey team, drove what was once valued at several hundred million into the ground. now there's this thing on facebook saying Anson Carter wanted to buy the team, and he had the money! I plan on piping the lads through on the internet, but still, it could have worked here.
well when they finally offload the HAWKS, maybe someone will relocate a team here. Why / how did the NHL not vet these idiots? this is going to drag the league down. I mean what voting populace full of right-thinking adults will vote for an arena now?
May 25th, 2011
11:33 am
Nice job Randy.
While I too do not think the Spirit bast#ards will do the right thing for us EVER, I agree in calling them out on this. I'd love to hear what they would say in response to this request, but I know they do not have the C.O. Jones to do so.
I know it. You know it. And the Thrasherville people know it.
Oh and JK Sockey, you are complete and total moron. You deserve to go to Winnipeg and freeze with the team.
May 25th, 2011
11:40 am
I agree w/hockey mom…I am sure any TRUE wpg hockey fan would respect the jersey if it didn't hang in ATL…but rightly it should hang in ATL…..
But please don't send us ANY JK SOCKEYS…we have our fair share!

Considering the state of the situation, think we have jumped the shark on this one.
Unfortunately we have no relevance anymore to make demands, requests, or proposals. Everything just comes across as whining at this point.
May 25th, 2011

I think that would be a very nice gesture indeed, but I don't see it happening. I am skeptical that Carter has the $$, by himself, to pony up for the team.

Excellent suggestion – Dan Snyder needs to always be remembered and honored. It is truly the least that "they" could do.
Thanks so much Rawhide as always for taking the time and putting forth maximum effort on behalf of Thrasher fans. And for making us think…..
May 25th, 2011
11:56 am
If #37 is to be retired, it should be and must be done in Atlanta. One of the things that po'ed Winnipegers off to no end, was when the Coyotes started to honor Winnipeg Jets players that had NEVER even been to Phoenix. Some say its an honor, well its not, its a slap in the face.
Side note: When the Coyotes honored Thomas Steen ( played his whole career in Winnipeg ) they put up a picture of Anders Steen ( some slug who stopped for a cup of coffee ).
Dan Snyder was part of the Thrasher's family and should be honored as such. Phone ASG and tell them what you want. If ASG refuses, then it just shows thier true colors.

I've wanted the Thrashers to officially retire the number 37..though no player wore it afterward. Dan Snyder is what a "Thrasher" should be, not the biggest, but willing to do what it took, he is sorely missed..especially by those of us who saw him in the IHL and weren't surprised at all that he made it to the NHL. I saw Snyder go after Barry Dregar once..it was like an ant attacking an elephant, Dregar was obvioulsy a heavyweight and made short work of "bird legs" but Snydy had more guts than most, the Thrashers needed more players like him throughout the organization.
This kid would have at least wore the A for Atlanta had tragedy not struck, I'll never forget him beating up Sean Avery before Avery was so well known, and then Avery was at his funeral, they respected each other. It's sad that so much is literally lost with this franchise moving, even the Dan Snyder Award, the charity work this team does, all of the people behind the scenes. Hockey here has been tainted by the powers that be, we see greed and lust for a team from up north, people indifferent to the hearts of fans here and it's a shame, the NHL, the ASG, TNSE…all indifferent with nothing but dollar signs in their eyes, the exact opposite of Dan Snyder and how he played and what he stood for. He was a Thrasher and he is still missed.
May 25th, 2011
12:05 pm
Not only YES, but HELL, YES! And it would be nice if Winnipeg could see fit to continue the tradition of honoring Dan Snyder by handing out an "unsung hero" award each year. We shall see…

@J-Man for your post on the previous blog saying that "hockey is ruining my life" – I would argue quite the opposite. It saves me from the absolute drivel that exists on most TV channels, including the bore of regular season MLB, preseason NFL (don't have to worry about avoiding that this year), the gamut of reality shows and the same old depressing News (definitely will watch Seinfeld re-runs though, but don't go out of my way to). In addition to being quality TV it is an excellent sport to play and keeps you in fantastic shape. I average about 1.75 games a week, am 34 and am in way better shape than pretty much everybody I associate with and can still go full bore and play a whole game with no subs on playoff night (2 games, an hour rest) when our team is short on people. Yeah, it sucks and have even yacked once after we won the final, but I can do it. I don't know if you have ever played, but those who have know that that is akin to sprinting for 3 hours. Try and lace'em up sometime and work off those cheeseburgers.
So the long-and-short of it – I don't think it has destroyed anybody's lives here, just pained our hearts, and that was done by A$$G = non-hockey fans.

Mr. Rawhide, this is an important question to bring forth since it is near to the heart of every supporter of this ex-city franchise. I do hope many voices will be heard in solidarity for this immortal cause. If you permit, with your grace and understanding to include my query since I fear it may have been lost in transition to your new blog. But I feel in need to share amongst one and all.
Why doesn't the "tin-foil cup guy" say anything about the current situation ? Why is he silent ? Where is thee ? Where is the tin-foil cup ? Why are these questions not being asked ? Why are we not seeking the answers to these questions ? Do any one of my brothers or sisters in the cyber sphere know the truth ? Was the tin-foil cup but a replica of an olden quest toward the revival of a modern holy grail ? Or was the tin-foil cup but a reflection of mere amateur enthusiasm from a mere amateur fan base skating away on the thin ice of a new day ? Vive la feuille d'étain !!! Vive la feuille d'étain !!! Vive la feuille d'étain !!!

The Thrashers ownership "do the right thing"????????
HAHAHAHA… that's a good one. Thanks for the laugh, but Atlanta Spirit, LLC hasn't done
one single right thing during their entire existence. Had they… we might not be losing our
second NHL franchise (both due to poor ownership)
May 25th, 2011
12:24 pm
Don't worry. As a good gesture to the Atlanta Fans and their Franchise History, we will retire that jersey at the MTS Centre if the Atlanta owners will not.
May 25th, 2011
12:32 pm
I bet the "Atlanta Spirit" group thinks Dan Snyder is a rookie goalie in Moose Jaw… they don't care about anything concerning this team – first and foremost – our history.
May 25th, 2011
12:36 pm
Oh those Shark's fans are steamed! Hard to tell if that was icing or not, but to me it looked like the faceoff shouldn't have been in the zone. Crazy good game to watch though.

Good idea. And another thing … stop charging fans for tickets on their credit cards without sending a letter to them telling them what is going on!
May 25th, 2011
12:42 pm
I think the ASG has "more important" things to do than these types of things….such as dot some "i's" and cross some "t's"….and start the tagging of inventory in preparation of a move….
May 25th, 2011

Agreed about the retiring of the number. As for the sale, it is a done deal. Bank on it. Anson Carter isn't even in the picture.

ADD JOHAN "MOOSE" HEDBERG to the growing list of personnel citing the ownership as the problem in Atlanta. ARE YOU LISTENING BETTMAN? On the NJ Devils Fire and Ice blog, he said the fans never had a chance with this group. He goes on to defend Atlanta as a good hockey city. He calls the situation SAD.

2mins, Thomas Steen played for Grums, Leksand and Färjestad in Sweden before ending up in Winnipeg.
Anders Steen, (who I know), is while not Thomas, no "slug" and was actually a good player.
May 25th, 2011
1:11 pm
In keeping with the shady dealings of this whole sale, doesn't anyone else think it is weird that an "exclusive negotiating period" was never announced with TNSE and the losers? It was made public on that John Moores "deal" for the building rights and the Hawks. Was this to allow them freedom to negotiate with any local buyers? Or was it because the deal was long done and they think people are too stupid to notice? Seems like another question the league and ASG should answer.
May 25th, 2011
1:25 pm
@Tom Lysiak, I see that too, in spades. While most people on here is saying that the deal is done, I am starting to have my doubts about that.
**Neki's Tin-Hat Time**
(This is my own personal opinion about this)
I was thinking that deal was going to be done around Yesterday or Today during to the Banks being closed in Canda for their holiday. But something happen on last Friday, that may change the whole picture, if we can read it.
When ASG pull out of the exclusive negotiating period with John Moores for the Hawks and Phillips, it was very strange because if a company wants to keep the team and building rights away from other local buyers, would they would have extend that period until after the Thrashers deal was finalize.
To me, I am thinking there is another party out there that wants all three (Hawks, Thrashers, and Phillps) and probably have better money then True North. Then you have that issue between Betterman and ASG about extra money outside of relocation fees.
At the end, Thrashers days in Atlanta is almost done because not of the fans (Jets fans needs to remember this), it was the ownership and NHL that did this.
For that orginial question, it should be a YES, but it determine what TNSE wants.
May 25th, 2011
1:27 pm
Since ASG is batting 0 for infinity on right things, I think it is safe to say that they will not do the honorable thing. I am beginning to really hope that we do not have a lame duck season to deal with next year.
May 25th, 2011
1:34 pm
It would be nice gesture, but I think that would have made more sense if it were done in Atlanta.
May 25th, 2011
1:35 pm
Wiped from existence. I feel like Dr. Brown, from "Back to the Future." It'd be a nice gesture, but it should have been done years ago, where Thrasher fans could see it, rather than fans in Winnipeg, who don't know who Dan Snyder was.

If the leak hadn't happened on Thursday, wonder if the announcement would have happened yesterday, as was leaked? Could the delay just be some "shucking and jiving" to cover some you-know-whats???? Trying to discredit the leak and illustrate that the deal was not final yet??? Bet somebody wasn't happy……

Excerpt from an e-mail response from Dan Corso of the Metro Atlanta Chamber dismissing requests for them to get involved:
"It's a much bigger issue than a sports council alone can influence."
My e-mail didn't ask them to do it "alone". More duck and cover and shifting of blame…

Retire 37 AND name the MVP award after TR Benning. Not unheard of for a team to honor it's past – even in another city or even league. The original Colorado Avalanche logo was not supposed to have blue in it – but it was added to honor the Quebec Nordiques. The New Jersey Devils were named in honor of the team from the old EHL. The Flames assistant captains wear the A in the style of the Atlanta Flames. TNSE has really followed the rules here – seem like a group of honorable people. Lets hope they see the positives here and make the move. We will still always have the upper hand over Winnipeg – they don't have a Widespread Panic consecutive sellout banner in THEIR building!

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - The second reading of the urban agriculture ordinance regarding animals is scheduled for Tuesday, April 2nd in front of the Sioux Falls City Council.
Zoning Enforcement Manager Shawna Goldammer says the Council last year passed the community gardening ordinance. She says that was easy, but the opinions regarding animals are divided.
Goldammer says there were people who wanted strict prohibition against any farm animals and those who wanted to be able to have chickens or other small animals such as goats.
She says under the current ordinance, Sioux Falls residents can have as many chickens, turkeys, geese or ducks as they want. Under the proposed amendment, residents would be allowed to have six chickens and six rabbits.
But if you wanted more than six chickens or rabbits, a duck, goose or a turkey, you would need approval from your neighbors and then pick up a city license.

Question: I need a sharpening stone when my straight razor gets too dull to sharpen with my strop. What do you recommend?
Answer: A straight razor, unless it becomes severely dull can be brought back into shape with the Norton 4000/8000 combination stone. This stone is very popular because both grits are suitable for straight razor use.

It was a great September day and the day became memorable because of wonderful wedding of Chris and Gladys. I really enjoyed this wedding not only because of the couple friendly personalities but also I know a few folks that I have done weddings of in the past. It was a wonderful reunion of 4 of my pervious client couples. The wedding ceremony service was provided by the Metropolitan United Church in Toronto at Church st. and Queen st. After the ceremony we were requested to take some family portraits on the grounds of the church. The formal wedding party photography was done at Osgoode Hall in Toronto.

Frequently Asked Questions
Published April 10, 2013
The new medical school will help the university achieve
objectives critical to the UB 2020 strategic plan: creation of a
world-class medical school; recruitment of outstanding scientists,
physician-scientists and clinicians to the university; and
transformation of the region into a major destination for
innovative medical care and research.
A new medical school will:
Ground breaking for the new medical school is slated for fall
2013, with the school scheduled to open in August 2016.
The 500,000-square-foot building will be located at the corner of Main and High streets on the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, adjacent to the new Conventus medical office building and the new John R. Oishei Children's Hospital, both under construction. The new medical school will also be nearby UB's new Clinical and Translational Research Center at 875 Ellicott St., located above the new Gates Vascular Institute.
In April, the university publicly unveiled the dramatic design for the medical school. The design was produced by HOK, a global design, architecture, engineering and planning firm. The HOK team has worked closely with UB officials, the SUNY Construction Fund and community groups to develop the design best suited to the needs of the medical school while strengthening connections with the surrounding community. The design process is continuing and is expected to be completed in the next few months.
The signature feature of the new medical school is a light-filled, six-story, glass atrium that joins the building's two L-shaped structures and includes connecting bridges to adjacent buildings and a stairway that cascades down from south to north.
The new school will be constructed on top of a new Allen/Hospital Metro station, a fact that not only accentuates community connections, but also promotes sustainable transportation options, which will help the building achieve LEED gold designation. A pedestrian passageway will extend through the building between Main and Washington streets, leading to Allen Street. To further promote alternative transportation modes, this passageway is deliberately aligned with a proposed Allen Street pedestrian extension from Washington to Michigan streets, which will feature a bike share facility.
To make way for construction of the new medical school, the university purchased four parcels of land. In November, UB purchased the 0.26 acre (approximately 11,325 square feet) parcel of land at 960 Washington St. UB also has a signed letter of intent to buy the parking lot of the Roosevelt Apartments at 911 Main St. for $1.2 million. This parcel extends behind the Allen Street Metro Rail station. The seller is Roosevelt Housing Associates. Arrangements for alternative parking are part of the acquisition of the property. This arrangement will accommodate all 32 of the parking spaces currently available in the Roosevelt lot.
In March, First Niagara gave to UB a 0.85-acre parcel of land at
973 Main St., appraised at approximately $2 million. The First
Niagara parcel completed the university's land acquisition
for the site. To replace the First Niagara branch currently
located on the site, First Niagara will open a new bank branch on
the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus. In the meantime, a temporary
branch will be located at 1031 Main St., a property UB purchased in
May for $1.4 million.
Yes. UB has held several public forums to get input on the selection of the architect and on possible design directions. The university will continue to engage with community members and community leaders regarding this important project.
UB has formed a Community Advisory Group to provide a forum for dialog with neighbors, businesses, residents and other stakeholders, including representatives from the immediately affected surrounding communities and adjacent neighboring buildings. The feedback provided during this outreach has been very beneficial to the design process.
The medical school project will provide better access to construction, vending and purchasing opportunities created by UB's expansion on the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus.
For example, UB has set ambitious goals for hiring minority- and women-owned business enterprises (MWBE) for the medical school project. The university expects to achieve 15 percent MWBE participation in design contract work. UB also expects to achieve 20 percent minority business enterprise (MBE) participation and 10 percent WBE (women business enterprise) participation in construction management contracts.
The relocation of UB's medical school will bring more than 2,000 UB faculty, staff and students to downtown each day. In the long run, this influx of people is expected to create new retailing, vendor and service opportunities for companies and businesspeople in the communities bordering the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus.
It will cost $375 million to build the new medical school. The sources of funds are:
Total: $375 million
The UB medical school will be paid for with several funding sources; private philanthropy is one of them. $50 million is to be raised from private sources -- gifts from individuals, foundations and corporations. The medical school has organized a fundraising steering committee, chaired by Jeremy Jacobs, Nancy Nielsen and Bob Wilmers, to raise funds for this building, the CTRC and many other medical school initiatives.
The McCarley property will not be used in the construction of UB's medical school. The medical school's relocation is focused on parcels on Main and High streets.
The McCarley property is important to UB because of its proximity to the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, downtown health-care facilities and other life-sciences partners in downtown Buffalo.
The university plans to use the property for educational purposes, consistent with its master plan, which calls for the relocation of UB's health-related programs to the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus area. A major emphasis of UB's plan is ensuring that the university's growth is beneficial to the communities that border its three campuses, including the downtown campus.
This strategy strengthens all three of UB's campuses. We have a campus master plan to guide us. The plans are optimal for all three campuses, and make the most of each one's resources and locations.
UB remains committed to the South Campus, and that commitment is not changing. After 2016, when the medical school moves downtown, the plan is to move UB's professional schools from the North Campus to the South Campus. The plan for the South Campus is to reinforce historic quadrangles, remove unsightly temporary buildings, recover grand lawns from parking and revitalize landscapes. Access to campus and way-finding will be improved with new facilities for transit patrons and bicycle commuters, a simplified campus loop road, an improved Bailey Avenue entrance and better connections to the neighborhood.

It's a SOG! Like the weight and size. Wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of this knife!
Wasn't sure of newer SOG quality; no problem-quality steel, well made, solid, heavy knife with good edge made better with a little sharpening. Overall very good knife. Sheath was adequate; not outstanding but can't argue with overall value.
Nice knife for the money.

Another thing I like about spongbob is dedication to your work. human spongebob was pleased to come to work every day and be the best damn cook frying could ever be. This is the true joy. I would like to do this work, even if they have not been paid and sometimes ( because Mr. Krabs cheap) is not .

However, without the knowledge of SpongeBob and Patrick , SpongeBob DoodleBob game lost an arm .
The arm infiltrated Spongebob Doodlebob house tonight and then used the magic pen to eat ( and also adds a few eyebrows bad ) before attacking SpongeBob. During a hunt , erases a part of your home and buttocks SpongeBob. As DoodleBob corners SpongeBob erases some and mocks him, making SpongeBob.

The next morning , Patrick arrives at Spongebob Doodlebob house and asked what was the noise from the night before , and go DoodleBob framed on the wall .

Jay-Z Review
Posted by John Hendrickson on 10/14 at 04:13 PM
Jay-Z came to Happy Valley, and everyone took notice.
Just over one month after a milestone performance at Madison Square Garden to mark the nine year anniversary of September 11th, Jay-Z rose from a trap door in the floor of the same custom stage—a massive, multi-leveled construction with a sprawling live band to match. This time, however, the rapper—whom many consider to be the greatest of all time—was conscious of his State College surroundings. He made the inevitable pandering joke about Eastern Illinois (who the Nittany Lions would obliterate the following afternoon), he called his audience simply "Penn State" and he played at least a portion of every one of his litany of hits over the last 13 years.

I'm still getting a freeze when opening leatherworking with my rogue. The good news is that it has only ever happened the first time I open it after logging in. Every opening after that is quick, provided I don't re-log. I timed the freeze several times before the last update, and it always froze for 2 1/2 minutes. It now only freezes for 1 1/2 minutes, and I have a dozen or so more "recipes" than I had before.
Edit: I tried again with all other addons disabled (what was I thinking lol). It still freezes at first opening, but only for about 1 min 10 sec.Last edited Dec 18, 2010 by fixitman: Added more info

peterwemm Dec 14, 2010 at 18:21 UTC - 0 likes
Regarding freezing on opening. I've seen a few references lately to interactions between opening/closing headers and TRADE_SKILL_UPDATE events which lead to recursion.
Apparently if you call the API to expand a header, change a filter etc, it causes an update event. There are a lot of modules out there that hook the update event and trigger a rescan.. which causes a huge amount of processing and appears to "freeze" things for a while.
This is compounded by other addons that also hook the update events. The Altoholic/datastore modules have code to avoid this, but it only temporarily deregisters its own update event hooks to reduce the recursion it causes itself.

@Koramiho I think that only option is to do it manualy by entering WTF -> account -> char name -> skillet.lua and change to some normal values :P
["tradeSkillLocation_x"] = -20.825021292185, ["tradeSkillLocation_y"] = -20.7856044095154,

I accidentally moved Skillet off screen and can't seem to reposition it. I feel bad for coming here and wasting a comment, but is there a way to reposition at all without dragging?
iamtheomen Dec 01, 2010 at 16:05 UTC - 0 likes
so yeah recently I've also been freezing up real bad. To the point I crash 90% of the time I open the tradeskill window. Releease version 2.09, i've just noticed a some alpha file i'll give those a shot.
as the game crashes completely I have no bug report or anything else to report I'm afraid, I actually had to disable skillet for the time being.
sorry I cant be of more help.Last edited Dec 01, 2010 by iamtheomen

In addition to the freezing part...
Open Skillet when you have all bankslots and bagslots open.
This will make it freeze too for a bit.

Nine Inch Nails has revealed that their upcoming album, Hesitation Marks , will have a different cover depending on which version of the release you buy. A total of four unique covers were created by longtime collaborator Russell Mills, who had previously designed artwork for NIN's 1994 album The Downward Spiral and several other releases from that period .
"This renewed collaboration very quickly suggested massive potential for the strange and the familiar to collide and collude in works that I hoped would encapsulate, by allusion, suggestion, metaphor and association, the conceptual ideas imbued in the album as well as in the undertow of its sonic world," says Mills in a statement. "I've tried to make works that obliquely allude to the essence of the subject matter, to its emotional core. I hope that they will invite multiple readings."
The mixed media pieces featured on the album covers were made using traditional materials like oils and acrylic paints with sundry objects that are subjected to a variety of processes, including burning, bleaching, calcification and erosion.
Hesitation Marks will be released on September 3. The digital version features a Mills piece called "Turn and Burn," while the artwork on the vinyl cover is titled "Other Murmurs." In addition, the artwork on the standard CD release is a piece called "Time and Again," while the deluxe features a piece called "Cargo in the Blood." You can view all the covers at NIN.com .

We all know about Valentine's Day, love it or hate it, come February try to escape the ubiquitous drug store candy.
Our neighbours to the east celebrate just a bit differently: February 14th sees the celebration of couples for sure, but its women who gift tokens of affection to those that make their hearts skip a beat. On March 14th, known as White Day, the tables turn and it's the men who celebrate their loves.
Image credit Park Shin Hye
But in Korea it doesn't stop there. April 14th, today, is Black Day, a day for singles. Donning dark clothes those less lucky in love congregate in local restaurants over bowls of noodles covered in black bean paste called jajangmyeon for some lively commiseration. It's a mainly fun affair and a signal that youth are shedding traditional views on the importance of early marriage (and shame over singlehood). On the other hand, a friend reports that it's been a total boon for the dating services industry. Ahh well…
But today, if you're single, here's to your fabulous self! Consider celebrating you, with or without the noodles!

The California Academy of Sciences Library is in the midst of a 3 year IMLS National Leadership Grant titled "Connecting Content: A Collaboration to Link Field Notes to Specimens and Published Literature." Connecting Content is an effort involving the California Academy of Sciences, Missouri Botanical Garden, Harvard University Botany Libraries, Harvard Museum of Comparative Zoology Library, the New York Botanical Garden and the Smithsonian Institution National Museum of Natural History. The project involves the digitization of field notebooks and natural history collections and the generation of metadata for these items. Five of the six institutions are conducting pilot projects of varying scope and size. We are now working on developing the means to link these collections to one another and to published material in the Biodiversity Heritage Library. The results of these projects will be made available for harvesting, reuse, and repurposing without cost, and third-party web applications developed to best serve diverse user communities. The final deliverables will include an enhanced community Smithsonian Field Book Registry, as well as workflow and procedures so that other institutions may contribute to this project.
This project is supported by a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), creating strong libraries and museums that connect people to information and ideas. The Institute works at the national level and in coordination with state and local organizations to sustain heritage, culture, and knowledge;enhance learning and innovation;and support professional development.

People like to talk about purity when they talk about singlespeeds [30]. The gearless bikes have no derailleurs, no rear suspension, and often there's not even a suspension fork. They make less noise on the trail, are easy to maintain and, for many, owning one is blissful. The advent of Gate's CenterTrack [32] belt drive creates an even simpler set up—there's no longer a chain to lube. Until recently, you could only find belt drives on expensive handcrafted bikes. Redline's Monobelt, however, is an affordable alternative for the masses.
The bike is an offshoot of Redline's popular Monocog [33] singlespeed. But both bikes draw heavily from the company's BMX heritage. Even the straight lines on the Monobelt resemble the Redline BMX bikes I grew up with. Like those bikes, our test bike model uses 4130 chromoly pipes and has the company's distinctive triangular gusset at the headtube junction. The bike has plenty of contemporary updates, however, including slider-style dropouts and hydraulic disc brakes. There's a 100mm Reba RL fork up front and the 29-inch wheels will never be mistaken for those of a BMX bike.
The remaining parts are reliable and effective—they won't win any design contests but most will hold up to years of abuse. The Ritchey stem, bars and seatpost are all durable products, and the WTB Prowler tires and Rocket saddle are some of the longest-lasting available. Alex KD Comp wheels roll on sealed hubs and so far have withstood repeated bashings and not a few sharp hits. The lower-end Shimano hydraulic brakes aren't the prettiest models available, but they work far better than similarly priced models from other brands. The only part I would change is the FSA Maximus crankset, which spins on the unreliable Isis-style bottom bracket. That choice keeps the bike price low, but will likely cost you in the long run when BB needs to be replaced.
Slider-style dropouts make it easy to set up and adjust the belt drive.
Gate's carbon belt drive proved quiet and trouble-free.
The Gate's CenterTrack is the power plant of this unique bike. Instead of a chain, the drivetrain uses a carbon belt. Although it can be finicky to set up or replace, the belt is light, quiet and maintenance free once installed. We've been fans of the system since it was first introduced in 2007 and the latest versions have a groove on the chainrings to improve alignment, reduce dirt build up and prevent the belt from sliding off the chainring. The system worked flawlessly. The bike's slider dropouts made it easy to set up and maintain, and it proved quiet and trouble free, even after several flat tires led to multiple wheel changes.
Riding the Monobelt was a gas. The steel frame was stiff but forgiving on the rock-strewn trails round home base. A steep 72-degree head angle keeps steering on the quick side and demands a rider's attention but gives the bike a playful disposition, not unlike a BMX bike. The 17.5-inch chainstays 65mm bottom bracket drop add stability, balancing out the steep head angle. The Reba RL offers up enough plush travel to handle the demands of the trail, but I did find myself wanting some low-speed compression damping to help fight brake dive and to keep the fork from "packing up" on fast, bumpy descents. If you're looking for a fun singlespeed with very little upkeep that's easy on the wallet, check out the Monobelt.
Gussets on the seatstays and headtube junction keep the steel pipes from flexing.

By Julian Linden
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Australian pitcher Grant Balfour was on his best behavior during Tuesday's All-Star Game at Citi Field, keeping his temper and opposing batters under control as he helped the American League team to a 3-0 win.
Balfour has developed a cult following among Oakland A's fans because of his tempestuous antics on the mound - which have become known as as the 'Balfour Rage'.
However, the 35-year-old Australian kept his cool on Tuesday with a brief but polished performance in the annual match-up between the best players in Major League Baseball.
"It was a great experience," he told reporters. "I just tried to settle myself down and enjoy it all and I thought I did a pretty good job."
Balfour became only the second Australian to play in the All-Star game, joining former Milwaukee Brewers catcher Dave Nilsson, who was picked for the 1999 Midsummer Classic.
Balfour was a late inclusion for the team after his Oakland team mate Bartolo Colon withdrew, although many thought the Australian should have been an original selection.
Although he struggled through the early stages of his career, Balfour is currently in the form of his life after being given the role of closer with the Athletics.
Since April last year, Balfour has completed 43 consecutive saves, including 25 this season.
He broke the previous Oakland franchise record, held by Hall of Famer Dennis Eckersley, and has played a major part in taking the A's to the top of the AL West standings.
"Playing in the All-Star Games was one of my goals, now I want to win a World Series," he said.
Balfour pitched just one inning on Tuesday, the sixth, but did enough to show he was not out a place in a roster that included Mariano Rivera and Justin Verlander.
After walking Michael Cuddyer, he got Bryce Harper to pop out to shortstop and Matt Carpenter to fly out to center.
Then Balfour struck out Andrew McCutchen, his eighth strike from his 15 pitches, to end the inning.

The Myths of 'Yes, Virginia'
The most famous editorial in American journalism was published 110 years ago in The (New York) Sun, as a reply to a letter from 8-year-old Virginia O'Hanlon.
The editorial was titled "Is There a Santa Claus?" and its most memorable passage was this reassuring declaration: "Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus."
Since the editorial's first publication in 1897, a fair amount of myth and misunderstanding have surrounded it. One common belief is that "Is There a Santa Claus?" was an immediate hit and was enthusiastically reprinted in The Sun every year until the newspaper folded in 1950.
In fact, The Sun republished the editorial just twice in the 10 years immediately following its initial publication. And when it did reprint the editorial, The Sun was a bit snippy about it, saying on one occasion: "Scrapbooks seem to be wearing out."
But readers' persistence eventually won out. Over the years, thousands wrote to The Sun, imploring the editors to reprint the editorial. Finally, some 25 years after its first appearance, "Is There a Santa Claus?" began appearing regularly every Dec. 23 or 24.
Another myth lies in the editorial's inspiration.
The Sun first published the editorial on Sept. 21, 1897. Many historians have assumed that Virginia wrote her letter that month, as the school year began in New York City. They believed that schoolmates had teased Virginia about believing in Santa Claus, which prompted her to ask The Sun: "Please tell me the truth, is there a Santa Claus?"
New research suggests Virginia wrote and mailed her letter in July 1897, shortly after her eighth birthday, but The Sun misplaced or overlooked it for several weeks. Virginia told relatives years later that she waited and waited for a reply and had given up by the time the editorial was finally published. The Sun's editor later said the editorial was written in less than a day by a self-effacing journalist named Francis P. Church, a veteran editorial writer at The Sun.
Virginia also recalled that after the birthdays of her childhood, she would wonder constantly about what gifts Santa Claus would bring her in December. So it was the anticipation and excitement of a young girl, writing soon after her summertime birthday, that inspired what has become American journalism's classic editorial.
Campbell, a Newseum researcher and scholar, discusses the back story of "Is There a Santa Claus" in his book "The Year That Defined American Journalism: 1897 and the Clash of Paradigms" (Routledge, 2006).
