via WGR 550,
WGR 550 has learned that the Sabres have signed veteran defenseman Teppo Numminen to a contract today. Numminen missed all but one game last season with a heart ailment. The 40-year old underwent successful heart surgery in September of 2007. Terms of the deal were not given.
Update 3:35pm ET: From the Buffalo Sabres, Numminen's deal has been confirmed—
Buffalo Sabres GM Darcy Regier announced today the Sabres have signed unrestricted free agent defenseman Teppo Numminen to a one-year contract.

Rivet Ready To Play In Buffalo

from Bucky Gleason of the Buffalo News,
"I'm not going to lie. I wasn't happy about being moved," Rivet said by telephone. "It wasn't the point of me going to Buffalo. I didn't care where I would have gone. I was leaving a place that I really enjoyed. I had a great setup, and now that's done. Now, I have to start over. We've heard great things about Buffalo. We're excited."
At first, it sounded like Rivet was sincere about the trade before backing off with lip service about the town. Actually, he's been doing his homework. He sees the Sabres going in the right direction with a core of young players. Along the way, he's learning that his perception of Buffalo was actually a misperception.

from the Buffalo News,
The Buffalo Sabres announced today they have added a fifth category to their variable pricing schedule for the 2008-2009 season. The three Toronto games and a Friday night game against Montreal on February 6 will be designated as "Platinum" games, which will be the most costly, ranging from $78 to $233.
The other 37 home games will be allocated in last year's categories of Gold (10), Silver (15), Bronze (9) and Value (3). The team said prices for Gold games will decrease by 15 percent from 2007-08 will increase on average 12 percent for the remaining categories.

Numminen Close To Signing With Buffalo

from Mike Harrington of Sabres Edge at the Buffalo News,
Darcy Regier told me today the Sabres are negotiating with Teppo Numminen to bring the veteran back and it appears the parties are getting close to a deal that I imagine would be for one year and at quite a bit less than last year's $2.6 million. Hmmmm. Here's what I see:

Miller Signing Put Sabres Back In The Game
by Paul on 07/19/08 at 09:46 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Bucky Gleason of the Buffalo News,
The contract extension was critical on many fronts. For once, it didn't take the Sabres an hour to make minute rice. The deal was done 18 days after they were eligible to begin negotiations. There were no lowball offers, no botching of tentative agreements, no animosity, no jerking around a star player, no distractions.
It was a grand departure from business practices that led to Chris Drury and Daniel Briere bolting, Brian Campbell getting traded and the franchise landing on its ear. By golly, maybe they've finally learned their lesson.
Miller wanted to remain here. The Sabres showed they were committed to keeping him. Everybody's satisfied.

Buffalo Sabres General Manager Darcy Regier announced today that forward Daniel Paille has agreed to terms on a multi-year deal. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
"Danny is a talented young player that can make a difference at both ends of the ice," Regier said. "Danny has been a key component to our penalty killing unit and we look forward to helping him continue to develop with our club for years to come."

Sabres Stick To Their Plan
by Paul on 07/08/08 at 09:46 AM ET

from Tim Schmitt of the Niagara Gazette,
But truth be told, the Sabres aren't cheap. They've tried to be innovative, and have indeed been frugal with free agent dollars, but just a tiny bit of number crunching shows this cheapskate reputation is unfounded.
Of the four teams with 19 players signed, the Sabres have the highest payroll. Their current cap hit is just over $46 million, and three teams with more players under contract have lower payrolls

Staying Away From Buffalo
by Paul on 07/07/08 at 09:46 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Bucky Gleason of the Buffalo News,
News alert: The Sabres have a poor reputation among players. It has become increasingly evident that the only way to get quality veterans into Buffalo is to force them here through trades. It's an unpleasant way to survive.
Forget the woe-is-Buffalo excuse. Everybody knows this is a passionate hockey town, but the word has spread about the organization's business practices. The Sabres are known more for their commitment to the bottom line than their commitment to winning. To players, it might as well be Edmonton.

Craig Rivet Traded from the Sharks to the Sabres
by Alanah McGinley on 07/04/08 at 06:48 PM ET
Comments (0)
From Phil Coffey at NHL.com:
The Buffalo Sabres acquired veteran defenseman Craig Rivet from the San Jose Sharks on Friday.
The Sharks sent the 33-year-old veteran and a seventh-round selection in the 2010 Entry Draft to the Sabres in exchange for second-round selections in the 2009 and 2010 Drafts.
Rivet will help the Sabres replace Dmitri Kalinin, who signed with the New York Rangers on Thursday.
Update 5:10pm ET: Comment from Sabres GM Darcy Regier, via press release—
"We are very excited to add such a quality veteran player to our roster. He is a great character player that will provide our club added leadership and experience."

Hello Darcy

from the CP,
We're still working and have been on the phone this morning and will continue to work," Regier said Wednesday, a day after signing Patrick Lalime to a two-year, US$2-million contract to back up starter Ryan Miller. "We're still exploring, really looking for a defenceman, so I remain hopeful."
What encourages Regier is that rather than reaching out to players' agents, as he did Tuesday when the NHL's free agency period opened, agents are now calling him.
"That for me is positive news," Regier said. "It tells me that players are looking at it and saying, 'Hey, Buffalo would be a nice place to play.' It tells me that it's a possibility."

Engadget Review
iPad Pro review: Big and powerful, but it won't replace your laptop
The iPad Pro isn't for everyone: It performs well, but iOS 9 isn't as adept at multitasking as a laptop operating system, and the lack of any mouse input can get tiresome. That said, its fast performance and smooth pen input could be useful for creative pros who need a way to stay productive while on the go. The Pro won't replace your computer, but for a certain kind of user, it could be a handy supplement.
- Well-built
- Robust performance
- Bright, pixel-dense screen
- Lighter than you'd expect
- Smooth, precise pen input
- Surprisingly good audio
- Long battery life
- Expensive, especially with the accessories sold separately
- Still heavy compared to other tablets
- No mouse support; none of the keyboards have touchpads
- Screen angle isn't adjustable on any of the keyboards
- iOS 9 doesn'tmultitask as wellas desktop operating systems
- Nowhere to store the Pencil
Here we are. Apple, the same company that once swore off styluses, and dismissed hybrid PCs as experiments gone wrong, is now selling a laptop/tablet mashup of its own. One that accepts pen input, at that. The new 12.9-inch iPad Pro went on sale last week, and though it is, in a sense, just an oversized iPad, it's also the closest thing we've seen yet to a hybrid device from Apple. With the screen real estate of a laptop, and the speed of a laptop, and various keyboard accessories allowing you to type on it like a laptop, the Pro seems like it might indeed be able to replace your notebook. In fact, Tim Cook himself has suggested as much in interviews. But with a starting price of $799, it isn't for everybody. And even then, it won't replace your laptop so much as complement it.

Part structure and articulation are of fundamental importance in computer and human vision. We propose using the inner-distance to build shape descriptors that are robust to articulation and capture part structure. The inner-distance is defined as the length of the shortest path between landmark points within the shape silhouette. We show that it is articulation insensitive and more effective at capturing part structures than the Euclidean distance. This suggests that the inner-distance can be used as a replacement for the Euclidean distance to build more accurate descriptors for complex shapes, especially for those with articulated parts. In addition, texture information along the shortest path can be used to further improve shape classification. With this idea, we propose three approaches to using the inner-distance. The first method combines the inner-distance and multidimensional scaling (MDS) to build articulation invariant signatures for articulated shapes. The second method uses the inner-distance to build a new shape descriptor based on shape contexts. The third one extends the second one by considering the texture information along shortest paths. The proposed approaches have been tested on a variety of shape databases, including an articulated shape data set, MPEG7 CE-Shape-1, Kimia silhouettes, the ETH-80 data set, two leaf data sets, and a human motion silhouette data set. In all the experiments, our methods demonstrate effective performance compared with other algorithms

Former GM criticizes San Jose for Heatley deal
Former Tampa Bay Lightning general manager and The Hockey News blogger Jay Feaster criticized San Jose for acquiring Dany Heatley.
Feaster essentially opined that Heatley, who wanted out of Ottawa because he didn't like his role, will be a cancer for the Sharks.
"For a group that appears to need more leadership, grit and mental toughness, how is Heatley the answer?" Feaster wrote.

Students enrolling for spring semester
Published: Sunday, January 5, 2003 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 5, 2003 at 12:00 a.m.
Spring semester at BlueRidge Community College starts Tuesday withregistration for both curriculum and continuing education classes to be held from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 5 to 7 p.m. Monday at both the Henderson Countycampus and the Transylvania Center.
For curriculum students, registering in Henderson County, the process begins at the Patton Building, starting with newstudent orientation sessionsat 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.Students go from there to meet with their academic advisorsand plan a course schedule. Orientation will be held on the same schedule at the Transylvania Center.
One change this semester is that all registered curriculum students must pay by the end of the day Monday or their schedules will be purged.
While registration for continuing education (noncredit occupational training and enrichment) classes has been going on by mailand on-line for some time,Monday is designated as aday when students can walkin to the Continuing Education Office on the HendersonCounty campus, or to the Transylvania Center, to register in person.
A drop box is available in the hallway of the Continuing Education Building, on the Henderson County campus, for leaving registration forms and payments at hours other than 9 to 1 and 5 to 7.
With a record 2,101 curriculum students enrolled fall semesterand a significant number ofdisplaced workers from bothAgfa and Ecusta planning to start school this month, springsemester promises to be a record-breaker.
At the close of early registration, 1,427 students had alreadyregistered for curriculum classes, with many sections filled to capacity.
Steps have been taken to expand the number of spaces in many of the class sections in the arts and sciences, but a word to the wise Monday would be to registerearly, particularly if you want your choice of daytime college transfer courses.
While we always do our best to accommodate last-minute applicants, a number of the skilled trades programs are also at ornear capacity, especially Automotive Systems Technology and Air Conditioning, Heatingand Refrigeration. Manyhorticulture classes are alsofull.
The faculty/staff awards for 2002-03 were presented at thecollege's holiday party Dec. 13, with Automotive Systems Technology instructor ChrisBert Miller winning the Dr. and Mrs. William D. Killian Outstanding Teacher Award, and Emergency Medical Technology instructor Robert "Jay" Alley winning the Community Service Award.
Alley, a paramedic with the Henderson County Emergency Medical Service and EMTinstructor at the college, was selected for the Community Service Award on the basisof his volunteer service aschief of the Gerton VolunteerFire Department and in teaching emergency medical coursesto groups throughout thecounty.
The Dr. Eliza B. Graue Extra Mile Award was awarded posthumously to Surgical Technology instructor Randa Pinkston, who died fall semester.
The faculty nominated Pinkston for the Graue award in recognition of a lifetime of going the"extra mile" in working with students.
All three awards carry stipends from the BRCC Educational Foundation, with Pinkston's being designated for the scholarship fund established in her memory by friends, co-workers and former students.

Waste4Fuel's High Court hearing, which reconvened on Monday (June 23), has been adjourned, again, until next Monday (June 30).
The hearing, which had been expected to last three days, began at the Royal Courts of Justice on May 6.
The Environment Agency (EA) says it now expects it to reach a conclusion next Tuesday (July 1).
The EA is seeking contempt charges against Waste4Fuel, former company director Bryan Hughes, new company director Shelley Hurst and site manager Jonathan Beckson.
It acquired a High Court order in November last year, requiring all combustible waste to be removed from the site in Cornwall Drive, St Paul's Cray, by May 1, but Waste4Fuel failed to comply.
Fire services have been called to the plant numerous times in the last year and a half, most recently on June 16.
Meanwhile locals have voiced concerns about the health implications of the site, with some saying fumes being emitted have made them physically sick.
