There are a couple of basic principles that I followed after joining a deep keeper league as an expansion team.
Building through the draft was particularly difficult in my league because it has no age restrictions on who can be drafted. Sidney Crosby was drafted in our league when he was just 14. So, finding good prospects that will pan out for you as NHL players requires diligent research and a lot of patience.
Most keeper leagues follow the NHL and players can't be drafted into the league until an NHL team owns their rights. Even in these circumstances, you need to do your homework and wait 3-5 years for most of them to start helping you out.
The principles that I follow are similar to those that an investor would use in picking individual stocks.
Learn how to do a proper valuation: This requires learning about a player's strength and weaknesses and figuring out if he's a good fit for your league. Is a defenseman going to be cast as a stay-at-home type in the NHL or does that two-way character forward have skating issues that make him destined to be a third or fourth-line player; these are the sorts of things you need to look at. Another thing you need to do to properly evaluate a player's upside is look at his physical maturity.
A player that is more physically mature as an 18-year-old might be more ready for the NHL, but has less room to develop. So, given equal talent and performance levels at 18, give me the player who has yet to fill out or, better yet, give me the skinny kid with a good skating stride who just needs to add leg strength and watch them bust out. By doing sound evaluations of your prospects before you draft them and closely following them to make sure they progress – always a key – you can help maintain a pipeline of talent that will keep you competitive. Separating the common stock from the blue-chippers will allow you cheaply acquire the types of players that usually cost a great deal on the trade market.
Know how to reap dividends from your assets: When you've committed to building a team through the draft, you need to take a long-term view. Waiting three-to-five years for a player should be something you're prepared to do. With the right kind of player, and with the right kind of valuation, you'll be richly rewarded. Not only will you watch your blue-chip prospect turn into an NHLer, but you'll have them on your team for years and they'll pay dividends for you for a long time.
This is why you should be cautious when trading away prospects. There are times when the numbers game will force you to unload some prospects from your farm, but unloading your bottom guys at a discount is always preferred to trading your best young players – that is until you're ready to make your run. Last year, I traded Steve Mason and John Tavares in a package that landed me Martin Brodeur. My league has carry-forward stats, so I was getting all of Brodeur's previous minutes and wins in the deal. It helped me win the league and had I not been in that position, I would not have given up so much of my team's future.
Trading prospects can be a difficult sell sometimes. Many fantasy GMs don't do enough homework to realize what a prospect's upside is. In many cases, trading a prospect to a GM that doesn't know what he's buying is foolhardy. You're better off walking away than trying to convince a GM that this a player is going to be something special. It's not unusual for fantasy GMs to consider lesser-known prospects as penny stocks: they're prepared to take a chance on them, but only if the price is cheap.
As with most championship-calibre teams, building a winner requires some well-timed trades. Converting some of your prospects into proven NHLers will accelerate your plan and converting aging players that don't play into your long-term players into usable assets is vital.
Drafting well and making good decisions on who to keep will allow you to build up the investment capital that will allow you to make takeover acquisitions at the appropriate time. And when you do that, you can light a nice big fat stogie to celebrate success like a Wall Street fat cat.

Everyone in my league keeps telling me you can't grow a winner. I'm inclined to agree, but you need to grow something substantial to win. The key is patience. Next is knowing which prospects to trade and for what. It will be a very important draft and season for me. This is the third year of the rebuild, and I will need to start trading guys with great potential. I will land Hall, Seguin and Eberle this year. Here's my sig.

I just finished editing a movie in Premiere Elements 4. Every time I try to export the movie, it begins rendering, gets as far as about 15%, and then says "Export Error: Error compiling movie. Unknown error." This happens no matter what format I choose.
I've read that this problem can be caused by titles and transitions, of which this movie has both. But I think the problem is entirely due to the movie's length, which is six minutes and fifty-five seconds. I say this because if I split the movie into 25-to-50-second chunks, leaving all titles and transitions intact, all the chunks export with no problems whatsoever.
I'm not running any other programs while the movie exports, but that doesn't help.
The source files are MOV (and one PNG), and the resolution is 1920x1080. I want to export it at the same resolution, otherwise what was the point of shooting in that resolution? I'm running Windows Vista on a Samsung R522 laptop, if it helps.
For what it's worth, I did manage to successfully export the audio portion of the movie as a WAV file.
What can I do? My movie is due to premiere at a local arts festival in a few weeks, so I need to sort this out. I read somewhere that the ideal setup is to have three drives -- one for the source videos, one for running the program, and one to export the file onto. Will that help?
Many thanks for any suggestions you may have.
Welcome to the forum.
However, this is the Premiere Pro Forum, for CS4 and earlier. You want this post moved to the PrElements Forum. Since you put the word "Elements" into your title (good move), one of the MOD's will likely take care of this for you.
Good luck,
In the meantime, let's get started with the problem, and when it gets moved, others can chime in.
Also, see this Adobe KB Article.
Good luck,
* The reason that I ask about the 30% mark is that for Transcoding, PrE uses a two-pass encode setting. That means that 50% is 100% of the first pass, and 100% is the culmination of both passes, or 200% of the Timeline. I wish that the progress bar showed the Frame being Transcoded, rather than a %.
It looks like our tireless MOD's were kind enough to move the thread.
Good luck,
Thanks Bill -- and thank you mods for moving the thread. I couldn't find an Elements forum so I assumed there wasn't one.
Actually, the progress bar in my version does tell you what frame it's on. When I tried to export it just now, it gave up around frame 2328 of 12447. Frame 2328 would be 01:17:18... which is the middle of a clip, with no titles, no effects, and no transitions, just ordinary video and sound. 30%, the number you suggested, gives frame 3738, which is 02:04:18, which is a different clip but the same deal.
The exact number varies from attempt to attempt anyway, which is why I think it's a "system memory" problem rather than a problem with a certain moment in the film. As I said, each part of the film exported fine on its own.
The videos are all MOV format, 1920x1080, ranging in size from 40 MB to 666 MB (maybe the devil is trying to stop me from exporting). There are 41 of them, giving a total of 11.9 GB. The single PNG is also 1920x1080 and 6.02 KB. The movie's audio is actually muted -- the audio that I successfully exported before was just the original audio from the raw clips.
I've got 55.3 GB of free space on my C drive and 580 GB of free space on my external drive; Premiere won't successfully export onto either of them.
Thanks for the link to the KB article, but I'd read it before and it didn't really help. As it says, "unknown error" really does mean just that. And it's clear that none of my clips or effects are problematic since they all exported fine when split into chunks.
I really do appreciate your help! I don't know too much about computers so if I didn't give you the information you were looking for please let me know.
Thanks so much,
The MOD's are the best. Glad that they moved the thread.
You taught me something, as PrE used to only list a % of the Timeline, and that confused a lot of folk, since the Transcode was 2-pass, and it was a bit abstract to figure things out. PrPro had the exact Frame progress box, and that was much more useful, at least to me. Glad to know that the Frames Transcoded has been added to PrE.
Looking over the details, nothing jumps out at me. The free-space on C:\ is getting up there, BUT you should still have enough room. One side-thought, is that, depending on how you have set up your Windows Virtual Memory, that, plus the working files that do go onto C:\ (most, plus the largest ones, will go to where you pointed them with Scratch Disks), there could be a "pinch point," but still, 55GB should be adequate. I usually recommend between 40 & 60GB, but then I have an engineering background, and alway use a heavy "safety factor."
Maybe others will notice something, that I am just missing. Meanwhile, let us know if that Adobe KB Article has anything of use.
Good luck,
You could have a number of issues.
It could be that you're using video that's not compatible with Premiere Elements. You say your source video is 1920x1080 MOVs. What model of camcorder is that video from? If it's from a still camera or a non-camcorder source, it may well use MJPEG or another codec that is giving the program problems.
You may also have tmp files or fragmentation on your C drive (or even your second drive). Have you run Disk Cleanup and the Defragmenter on these drives? (Windows has these programs, but you can do a one-click Deep Care tune-up with a great little free program called Advanced System Care Free from iobit.com.) This would definitely be the first thing I'd address! Especially on a Vista machine!
You also say you've got a second hard drive, but it's not clear how it's configured with your system. You're working on a laptop -- how is your second drive installed? Is it an internal drive?
Finally, you say that you can output your video in short segments. If so, that may be a solution. Output your video in short 10 minute segments using Share/Computer/MPEG with the 1440x1080 MPEG2 setting. You can then open a new project set up for HDV video and assemble all of these segments in it and output your complete movie from there. If your issue is codecs (as I said in my first point) this is a good way to work around this issue.

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life,[a] and the life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 He came as a witness, to bear witness about the light, that all might believe through him. 8 He was not the light, but came to bear witness about the light.
9 The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. 11 He came to his own,[b] and his own people[c] did not receive him. 12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, 13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.
14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 (John bore witness about him, and cried out, "This was he of whom I said, 'He who comes after me ranks before me, because he was before me.'") 16 For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.[d] 17 For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has ever seen God; the only God,[e] who is at the Father's side,[f] he has made him known.

E-mail: email@example.com Phone: (949) 633-3638 Twitter: @SanJuanCPatch Facebook: www.facebook.com/SanJuanCapistranoPatch Birthplace: Panorama City, CA Birthday: Jan. 25 BIO I grew up in the San Fernando Valley and came of age about the time Moon Unit Zappa's "Valley Girl" hit the radio waves. Yes, it was all true. I did say "totally," like, all the time. I was one of those annoying types who was involved and did everything in high school, including working on the student newspaper. That's when I realized I wanted to be a journalist, when the assistant principal wouldn't answer my questions about parking permit fees. Why did we need them if the lots were never patrolled, and where did that money go anyway? I had a job at the college newspaper before I had housing. I rose through the ranks, first at UC Santa Barbara and then becoming the editor-in-chief of the UCLA Daily Bruin. I graduated UCLA with a BA in communications studies and began my journalism career at two daily newspapers in Ventura County. I eventually ended up at the Daily Journal, a Los Angeles-based, statewide newspaper for lawyers, first as a reporter and later as the business editor. Not long after having my first child, I started freelancing. Journalism is a great career to work around motherhood. I freelanced for the Los Angeles Times, Bloomberg News, BabyTalk magazine, San Diego Magazine, various Daily Journal publications (including California Lawyer magazine) and Corporate Legal Times (it was more interesting than it sounds, promise! I covered the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals). I started freelancing for Patch before we launched the San Juan Capistrano Patch site, and my beat has consistently been covering Capistrano Unified School District, which has kept me pretty busy. As recently as November 2011, I was a regular contributor to legal websites owned by Lexis-Nexis, including consumer-friendly Lawyers.com My husband, Mynor, and I have been married 23 years and have three fabulous (most of the time!) teens. One graduated from CUSD, another attends a CUSD school and a third is in private school. Among the three of them, they have participated in or benefited from: the Two-Way Immersion program, AP classes, English-language development classes, special education and high school sports. My husband is a mortgage banker and occasionally writes a blog here. He is also a director of outdoor fitness (employed by Marriott International). Thanks to the economy, we no longer hold any positions in any company stock. I have a side job selling body wraps that shrink. We live on a historic property. Hablo español. I'm doing my best to expose anything you might find as relevant! When we knew my husband was getting transferred to Orange County, I instinctively knew we would choose San Juan Capistrano for our home. It was most like our Ventura County home where we spent the first 11 years of our marriage. We have been very active in church, the Shoreline Church of San Clemente. We also helped launch Branches, a church that now meets in Dana Point Harbor. It first met in our home. Beyond church service, one of our favorite charities is Kidsave International, which introduces older orphans to potential adoptive parents. We can never thank them enough for introducing us to our son. BELIEFS At Patch, we promise always to report the facts as objectively as possible and otherwise adhere to the principles of good journalism. However, we also acknowledge that true impartiality is impossible because human beings have beliefs. So in the spirit of simple honesty, our policy is to encourage our editors to reveal their beliefs to the extent they feel comfortable. This disclosure is not a license for our editors to inject these beliefs into stories or to dictate coverage according to them. In fact, the intent is the opposite: we hope that the knowledge that our beliefs are on the record will force us to be ever mindful to write, report, and edit in a fair, balanced way. And if you, the user, ever think we failed in this mission, we wholeheartedly invite you to let us know. With this in mind, I believe in reporting truth over all else. I'm a First Amendment absolutist. I love the marketplace of ideas, and as an "old-school, hard-news journalist" at heart, I find a lot of the new media biased and unbalanced. My goal is to make SJC Patch a place where people of all opinions come together to hash out the issues and discuss the well being of our beautiful community. Preaching to the choir is boring. Politics I've been conservative for years, but didn't register Republican until the 2008 presidential election (yes, this frequently makes me the odd-man-out in a room full of journalists). If I had to choose one conservative thinker whom I most admire, it's Dennis Prager hands down. I've been a fan of his since college. Local Hot-Button Issues It's been fun to meet so many people in the community and explain that I'm not new to San Juan. You don't have to show me the ropes. I'm not a dewy-eyed reporter trying to figure out the heart and soul of San Juan Capistrano. I get it. We love the historic nature of our area and want to preserve it. We love our open space and our equestrian lifestyle. We love living close enough to the beach to bike there. We love our children and get them involved in a gazillion different activities. We love our neighbors, and we purposely picked San Juan Capistrano, with its shacks to mansions and a history that predates country-hood, as our home. We fight anything that threatens any of these important components of our identity. When something is important to you, it's important to Patch.

BUENA VISTA, Va. (AP) - Schools in Buena Vista are closed Monday because of a brush fire that has burned 300 acres.
Media outlets report that the fire began Sunday afternoon on the southeast side of the city. It then spread to Elephant Mountain in the George Washington National Forest.
The National Forest Service says the fire is about 5 percent contained.
No damage to homes or buildings has been reported.
The cause of the fire hasn't been determined.

ANOTHER determined defensive performance was not enough to atone for another uninspiring effort in attack as the Knights suffered a 12-4 loss to the Dragons at WIN Jubilee Oval last night.
St George Illawarra's gritty victory after a scoreless second half was coach Steve Price's second over former mentor Wayne Bennett in the space of six weeks, after the Dragons pipped the Knights 15-14 in extra time in Newcastle on opening night.
The result ended a 10-game, seven-year streak in meetings between the two teams in which the away side has won.
The Dragons dominated the first half but had to settle for a 12-4 lead after having two tries disallowed by video referee Bernard Sutton and butchering two by losing the ball over the line.
''They were better than us [in the] first half, but the second half, we got ourselves back in the game and did things better than we did in the first half,'' Bennett said.
''It was a credit to these blokes that they did keep turning up. Every time they [the Dragons] looked like scoring a try, and a couple of them were no tries, but at least players were putting the pressure on there, forcing an error or whatever.
''We were fortunate to be in there at 12-4 but we were there, and again, that's what these guys do as good as anybody I've coached. They really do hang in. They mightn't be playing well, but they don't give up easy.''
Newcastle appeared to have closed the gap in the 56th minute when halfback Tyrone Roberts put back-rower Zeb Taia over for a try but Sutton, called on again, disallowed it because he ruled prop Kade Snowden had caused an obstruction in the lead-up.
Snowden stopped as Matt Hilder passed the ball behind him to Roberts, and Newcastle-bound Dragons back-rower Beau Scott ran into Snowden's shoulder and threw his hands in the air in despair.
''All he [Snowden] needed to do was keep running,'' referee Jared Maxwell said to Knights skipper Danny Buderus, who responded in frustration: ''He can't disappear.''
Bennett said he had no problem with the ruling, provided it remained consistent throughout the season.
''You've just got to understand the NRL. If you're gonna touch anybody, and you're on that outside shoulder, you're probably going to get an obstruction on you, so you've just got to live with it,'' the former Dragons coach said.
''It'd be easy to say I've got a problem with it but I know if they don't keep on top of that, then we'll have a lot more guys running block plays.
''It's not really up to the officials to determine whether the defender would have got to the tackle or not. If you run the line, you find yourself in that position, and that was on the low end of the scale, what happened there.
''But if they're consistent with that, then I can live with that, and everybody knows where they stand with it.
''If he didn't make contact with him, then there probably wouldn't have been an issue, but there was contact made, and Beau Scott bought into the contact as well, but there's certainly not much doubt that Kade did also.''
Despite contributing to Newcastle's only try of the night, it was an unhappy return for former Dragons fullback Darius Boyd, who spilled a bomb and landed flat on his back trying to defuse another.
Boyd was booed loudly on his first kick return in the opening minute, and Dragons fans were cursing again in the 12th minute when their 2010 premiership-winning fullback and Churchill medallist combined with Danny Buderus and Jarrod Mullen to send Aku Uate darting over in the corner for a try and a 4-0 lead.
Mullen suffered a badly corked thigh when tackled by Dan Hunt in the process of kicking the ball in the second minute and took several minutes to rejoin play.
Bennett said his five-eighth would be fit to play for Country Origin against City at Mudgee tomorrow week if selectors chose him tomorrow night.
Uate's try came five minutes after Sutton disallowed a Ben Creagh try, ruling Creagh lost control of Jamie Soward's perfectly placed cross-field bomb before grounding it.
The Dragons roared to life with two converted tries in a three-minute burst midway through the first half to take a 12-4 lead.
Scott took a pass from skipper Ben Hornby and crashed through Mullen's and Taia's attempted tackles to score close to the posts in the 19th minute for a 6-4 lead after Soward converted.
Soward's inside pass sent fullback Brett Morris into the clear three minutes later then Morris drew Boyd, the man he replaced in the Dragons' No.1 jersey, and sent Nightingale across to score.
Buderus caught Nightingale high just before he grounded it, earning the ire of Dragons fans in the south-west corner of the ground.
Soward converted for a 12-4 lead and the Knights were lucky not to fall further behind three minutes later when Uate let a towering bomb bounce.
Left winger Daniel Vidot crossed out wide after the Dragons recovered possession, but Sutton denied the try, ruling Soward had pushed Uate in the back.
The Knights dodged another couple of bullets before the first half was over.
St George Illawarra centre Kyle Stanley spilled the ball as he tried to scramble over the line in the 32nd minute, then Mullen stripped the ball from Creagh's clutches in the 38th minute after Uate spilled a bomb and the Dragons recovered possession.
Needing to lift their intensity and improve their handling, the Knights made the worst possible restart.
Handling errors by Boyd, Cuthbertson and Uate forced them to defend their line for most of the first 10 minutes of the second half but they scrambled well enough to turn the Dragons away.
Despite struggling with the corked thigh he suffered when tackled by Hunt in the second minute, Mullen jolted the ball loose from Creagh with a driving tackle in the 46th minute.
The Knights went close again five minutes after Snowden conceded his obstruction penalty when he was held up over the line, trying to barge his way over.
? After leading 22-0 at half-time, the previously 13th-placed Dragons shocked Newcastle's NYC table-topping team 36-16 in the curtain-raiser.

Sustainable development
'Improving Together' supplier programme
'Mejorando Juntos' ('Improving Together') is a programme to foster and develop micro and small businesses supplying our Panamanian business, Cerveceria Nacional (CN). As well as helping suppliers to become more competitive, it also contributes to the development and sustainability of the community.
The first step is an awareness-raising session based on our Responsible Sourcing Principles. Subsequent training covers topics such as quality and environmental management, looking at improvement opportunities in each case and any support the company may need.
Once the training is complete, companies become accredited CN suppliers and continue to receive help as necessary. The programme has so far involved 35 of CN's small and medium-sized suppliers and is designed to be replicated in other locations in the future.
CN's main partner in the project, The National Centre for Competitiveness, was recently invited by the United Nations Global Compact Network to join a nationwide project to use the company's model as a best practice example of business-supplier relationships.
Our priorities: Enterprise development
See how we're building supply chains that reflect our own values and commitment
Strategic corporate social investment
'DestapaRSE' is Cerveceria Nacional's corporate social investment (CSI) umbrella programme. It covers five areas – CSI projects, enterprise development, small CSI initiatives and philanthropic activities, community projects and emergencies and disaster relief. Its creation was the result of a cultural shift away from philanthropy towards strategic CSI.
Aligned with the sustainable development priorities of the SABMiller group, the new programme includes a CSI committee comprising a member from each department and two external members to ensure that projects are selected and funds allocated in a fully transparent way. As part of its more strategic approach, the company now collects stakeholder responses and takes the lead in the conception and implementation of new projects.
Apart from selecting projects to be implemented, Cerveceria Nacional's main CSI contribution is to build local capabilities in the implementation, management and promotion of sustainable social investment projects.
Our priorities: Communities
NGO-enterprise project fair
Facilitated by our Panamanian business, Cerveceria Nacional (CN), the first NGO-enterprise project fair, 'Destapa tu Responsabilidad', took place in October 2008. The event brought together NGOs and the private sector to generate support for the development of social investment projects. More than 40 NGOs took advantage of the opportunity to promote their projects to leading businesses in Panama.
As a result, some proposals that had previously been presented to CN but had not qualified for support were able to find backers. The event also promoted engagement with government and international agencies, furthering CN's vision of being a leader in sustainable development in Panama and emphasising its shift from philanthropy to strategic social investment.

Order in the next 5 hours 39 minutes for express home delivery on Friday
Our Closer to Nature Electric Steam Steriliser keeps everything sterile for a whole 24 hours if you keep the lid closed, so you can switch it on at bedtime and wake up to clean bottles for laid-back breakfasts. Our Electric Steam Steriliser is really easy to use. Just push the single button - it'll glow orange when you switch it on and goes off five minutes later when the cycle is finished. Give it three minutes to cool down and you're good to go.
Easy to use, straight forward. Looks clean. The lid becomes mis shaped after a few uses but still works
Read good reviews and I'm not dissapponted
Its actually quite a large steriliser despite claims that it's space saving. Having said that however, it is perfect for Tommee Tippee bottles (and probably the only one you should buy) as those bottles are a unique shape and often dont fit in other sterilisers very well. Kiddicare next day delivery was brilliant as always!
It was fine for few days it has started to leak so taking bck to kiddiicare today had to go tesco last night get one
I found this the easiest and reliant to use i have had 2 of these as got it for my 2nd as well as felt confident it did the job not fiddle.

Hi Heaven!
Great to see you´re also on conceptart. Keep up your great work!
Hey there! Lovely start to a sketchbook.Your environments/concepts and mech related pieces are wonderful and looking quite convincing already.
Keep studying thyat anatomy and get going on gestures - try to be fluid and loose when drawing the figure, think about how much more organic the body is and the way it holds itself. That might help in loosening up your figures to make them look more life like, perhaps.
The thumbnails and things are lovely, you seem to have a good understanding of perspective which is great !
Nice sketchbook. I like the loose feel most of your pictures have, it makes them feel lively, especially the environments. I also like that you are drawing a variety of subjects, I like brave artists who'll give everything a go. It's inspirational. The head/face studies are pretty damn solid looking too, have a good grasp of light & form. Can't wait to see more.
Great dynamic works) Keep it up!

Hey! Great start! Lotta good skills being developed and shown here. My two cents worth is to improve your character design skills by learning how to draw them from imagination. Study Glenn Vilippu, Michael Hampton, and Mike Matessi for a start. They are all great! Good job Sir!
What's taters precious? Po - tay - toes!
Creativity at high level here. Interesting themes and environment. Remain inspired, and do more anatomy.

Looking for 2 new GM's.
Have a keeper league that's been going strong for 3 years. 2 teams bailed out this year last minute due to the shortened season, and we've decided to redraft the entire league, rather than slim it down to 10 teams. Draft will be this Thursday evening. 20$ entry. Dedicated managers only. Email firstname.lastname@example.com if interested.
1) Team Specifics
Roster size: 22 players
Roster positions: 3 C, 3 RW, 3 LW, 4 D, 2 G, 1 utility, 6 Bench, (2 IR)
Maximum Games: 82 per position (48 this year)
Statistical Categories (Forwards/Defensemen): Goals, Assists, Points, Plus/Minus, Penalty Minutes.
Statistical Categories (Goalies): Wins, Shutouts
2) Roster Protection (keepers):
-Each team protects 16 Players (any position, its your choice) between the end of the regular season and September 19th. A list of each team's 16 players must be emailed to me @ email@example.com, before 12:01am on September 20th.
* If a list has not been received by 12:01am on September 20th, by default you will be given all goaltenders on the team, followed by the top point-getting skaters until a total of 16 players has been reached. **In the case of a tie in points, alphabetical (last name) order will be used.
3) Trading:
-Teams can trade as they wish during the regular season, up until the trade deadline (NHL yearly deadline). Any assets may be traded throughout the year. Assets are players, and draft picks. 2 for 1 trades, 3 for 1 trades, 3 for 2 trades, etc are all legal.
* Only draft picks for the following year's draft can be traded. (Example: During the 2009-10 season, only draft picks that will happen the following September can be traded). Draft picks must be traded evenly, meaning every team must have 6 picks at the draft.
- Trades are on a freeze from the trade deadline (NHL yearly deadline), up until after all keeper lists have been submit (September 1st will be the deadline). Off-season trading will begin following the keeper deadline, and end 3 days before the draft.
-When off-season trading opens, any team can start trading if their league fees have been paid for the next season. In the off-season, teams can trade any of the 16 players listed on their roster, as well as any of that year's draft picks. Off-season trading needs to be don at an even number, meaning 1 for 1 trades, or 2 for 2.
- Regular season trades not involving draft picks:
These trades are done by using the yahoo system. They are also posted in this league forum under COMPLETED TRADES, this is to keep a history of trades.
Off-season trades, or regular season trades involving draft picks:
- First step is to confirm with trading partner that the trade has been accepted (email).
- Once the trade has been accepted, both parties are to email firstname.lastname@example.com, the specifics of the trade. If there is anything missing, both parties will be contacted by the commissioner to clarify the deal.
- An email will be sent out to the league, detailing the trade. The yahoo league forum shall be updated with the trade as well. 48hrs will be given from the time that this email has been submit to the league, for the league to veto the trade.
- Once the veto period has expired, the trade shall be processed, and the trade will be then updated under COMPLETED TRADES in this forum.
"Buddy" trades will not be accepted. If anyone believes that a trade is FAR too lopsided, they may lodge a complaint with me (firstname.lastname@example.com). If that complaint is seconded, a vote will take place. A vote of 58% or greater will be sufficient to nullify the trade. THE COMPLAINT MUST BE LODGED WITHIN 48 HOURS OF THE TRADE. Owners win deals and lose deals - it happens. Sometimes owners lose deals badly. This rule is in place only for extreme situations. It is to prevent two friends from stacking one of the teams and splitting the prize money.

No Free Agents can be signed from the end of the regular season, until midnight after September's draft.
5) The Draft
The Draft (snake format): A lottery* is held between the bottom 4 teams, with the remaining teams filling in the order from worst to best. Lottery winners get the top 4 spots in the draft.
*Lottery is done using http://www.fftoolbox.com/draft_order_generator.cfm
**Team Competition
Every team must activate their most competitive roster throughout the season. Purposely losing for a better draft pick will not be tolerated and could cause you to lose your 1st round draft pick. Each team must have each roster position filled throughout the season and must actively rotate these players into the starting roster when possible.

Derived from the Latin macula, the Italian word "macchia" connotes simply a stain or a spot, but it has a much richer range of meaning. Since the Renaissance, macchia has been associated with a sketchy way of applying the initial color to a drawing or painting. Particularly appropriate for the late style of the Venetian painter Titian, the word characterizes his emphasis on brushwork and summary treatment of form. In the seventeenth century, macchia designated the special quality of improvisational sketches that appear to be nature's miraculous creation rather than mere human work.
The Italian artist Italo Scanga suggested macchia as the title of the series of work begun in 1981 by Dale Chihuly. The ability of the word "macchia" to encapsulate the concept of the spontaneous outpouring of artistic sensibility may have been the reason why Scanga recommended it to his friend. The word choice encompasses more than the mere fact that a distinguishing feature of this series is the artist's
Chihuly and the Creative Act
In conversation, Chihuly repeatedly refers to the mystery and magic of glass. "My work," he concludes, "to this day revolves around a simple set of circumstances: fire, molten glass, human breath, spontaneity, centrifugal force, gravity." All these circumstances accept the immediacy of glass, particularly its tendency to
This natural quality is heightened in Chihuly's art through its ready acknowledgment of the effects of centrifugal force and gravity during those fleeting moments when
An American in Venice
Although the Italian word "macchia" might appear an affectation for an American artist, Chihuly's experiences working with glass blowers on the island of Murano near Venice preclude such an assessment. In 1968, he received a Fulbright Fellowship to study glass at the Venini Fabbrica, initiating a dialogue with Italian glass that continues to the present. At the Venini factory, he was the first American artist/glass blower, rather than designer, to work there. Although his initial experience resulted in a sci-fi prototype for a lamp design, which depended on his immersion in Minimalist/Conceptual ideas and knowledge of contemporary Italian designs, he responded almost a decade later to the challenges of traditional Venetian glass in such series as the "Baskets," "Sea Forms," and "Macchia." In his art, Chihuly found modern equivalencies for filigree designs (latticinio) and woven glass (varo tessuto). He adapted the Venetian practice of blowing molten glass into molds for his own dynamic purposes, eschewing the symmetry of Muranese production for an asymmetry more indicative of the vicissitudes of the process. The bubble of molten glass is plunged into a metal optical mold, imprinting a "memory" that will be recalled when, in the final moments of forming, the vessel is spun open. The resulting undulating forms can be seen as a critique of the handkerchief shapes that Fulvio Bianconi designed for Venini in the late 1940s. These were, in turn, inspired by the less refined slumped glass vases created by Luigi Fontana for the 1936 triennial design exhibition in Milan. In the Macchia, Chihuly makes this former static orientation dynamic and enlarges this conservative scale to awesome proportions. He heightens
Chihuly's Macchia perpetuate the vitalist spirit that traditionally begins with the writings of the French philosopher Henri Bergson, who enjoyed great popularity at the turn of the century on both sides of the Atlantic and who deeply impressed such artists as Arthur Dove and Georgia O'Keeffe and later Willem de Kooning and Jackson Pollock. Believing that reality was an ongoing process perceived in immediate experience, Bergson championed intuition over intelligence and instinct over intellect. He believed that reality's flow should not be obstructed by intellectual constructions, and he championed empathy as a way for people to understand their own organic connections with life. Vitalism is particularly evident in the dynamic qualities of Chihuly's Macchia, which look as if they have only momentarily been frozen in time. Their strong allusions to an ongoing duration connect them with vitalism's flow of life.
This vitalist current in Chihuly's work may be a profound response to the deaths of his brother and father in 1956 and 1957 respectively when Chihuly was still in his teens. These tragic losses may have intensified the life force for him. In Chihuly's work the breath of life is maintained as a central l creative force. Glass has become a means for symbolically integrating death with life. The process of glass blowing represents a continuing metamorphosis involving radical changes from molten to frozen
The Dark Side
Similar to dreams, works of art may manifest positive associations that entice both artists and viewers, and they may serve also as necessary projections of personal and societal fears. This darker side of the Macchia is suggested in the term's everyday usage as a spot, stain, blemish, blot. Such expressions a stampare alla macchia (to print a pirated edition or to print clandestinely) alla macchia (secretly), and darsi alla macchia (to take to the woods or turn highwayman) all allude to the potentially more clandestine side of the "Macchia" series.
For Chihuly's Macchia this darker side might refer to the fact that the techniques of glassmaking were carefully safeguarded until the twentieth century. In Venice
The secrecy of the craft was stringently maintained until 1962 when Harvey Littleton started teaching glass blowing at the University of Wisconsin. With the development of the studio glass movement internationally, through Littleton's efforts and those of his students, including Chihuly, the secrets have been revealed, but the transformation of sand and a few other elements into glass remains seemingly magical. It is particularly apparent in the sense of wonder elicited by Chihuly's glass.
The provisional balance of Chihuly's Macchia is a key aesthetic element that reinforces

Hello and welcome to InformativeSports.com NFL GameDay. This will be a weekly feature in which Marcos Moreno, Dan Vachalek, and I, Brady Ford, make predictions about the coming week's games.
Our guest this week is Ethan Calof
Carolina at Atlanta
Ethan Calof: All the news out of Carolina is that John Fox is sticking with beleaguered quarterback Jake Delhomme. This spells gigantic trouble for the Panthers. Delhomme has quite simply lost it. Atlanta would be good enough to win this game in their own right; with Delhomme still flinging bombs to the other team, it practically becomes a cinch. Look for a big game from Michael Turner as Atlanta wins this divisional showdown.
Marcos Moreno: Jake Delhomme is a turnover machines in recent games that count. Despite AJ Feeley being brought on this week I don't think they can bounce back against a Falcons team that gains more and more confidence each victory. Adding a veteran leader such as Gonzalez (who had 5 catches for 73 yards and a TD) is going to make this team that much harder to beat.
Brady Ford: I've got Atlanta. I have no faith whatsoever in Jake Delhomme. While Atlanta is not on Philadelphia???s level defensively, Delhomme was inaccurate even when he wasn't pressured. Delhomme has 11 turnovers in his last 7 quarters. The teams are similar in talent level, but I can't pick any team led by Delhomme to win.
Dan Vachalek: Carolina has a horrible quarterback situation- so that's going to hurt them a lot. Atlanta's team is good. They have a good passing attack with Roddy White, Tony Gonzalez and Matt Ryan while having a solid running situation in Michael Turner. The Panthers only have a combo rushing attack- but not much of a quarterback as Jake Delhomme embarrassed himself against the Eagles last week. Atlanta wins.
Minnesota at Detroit
Ethan Calof: This has all the makings of a laugher. Detroit???s offence revolves around the running game??? too bad Minnesota has the best run defense in the league. Elite running back Adrian ???Purple Jesus??? Peterson is going against a Lions rushing defense that allowed 143 yards to Mike Bell last week. Say that again: Mike Bell. I expect Chester Taylor to start the second half at running back for the steamrolling Vikings.
Marcos Moreno: VIKES! Easiest game to predict of the season. The Lions horrid defense gave up 515 yards last week, 157 on the ground. I see AD getting his first 200+ yard game of the season in an easy win
Brady Ford: The Vikings should win easily. Detroit is still in rebuilding mode, and just lack talent throughout their roster. AD should have another big day. Stafford should have a pretty good day though, as Minny's pass defense pales in comparison to their run defense.
Dan Vachalek: Minnesota wins. They have a great rushing game, and the defense will be able to stop the horrible thing the Lions call an offense.

Made near the end of the third year of Gibson's wildly successful ES model, this early example block marker is in VG++ condition. Featuring original electronics (pots date to August '61) and legendary PAF pickups with original nickel covers that show no evidence of having ever been unsoldered and removed. The guitar originally shipped with a Bigsby tailpiece and a plaque reading "Custom Made" that covered the stop tailpiece studs. The guitar had been used extensively by the previous owner, who removed the Bigsby and installed a stop tailpiece in the factory studs. Both the Bigsby and plaque are in the case.
Like many high mileage Gibsons put to professional use, this guitar has suffered a headstock break, repaired long ago, and had modern tuners installed in the '70s. We gave this instrument to restoration expert Dave Blackshear, who cosmetically addressed the physically solid previous repair, and installed period correct Kluson tuners, filling holes and touching up as appropriate. In short: it looks, sounds, feels, and plays great. Ready to take the stage again, with an equally well-worn, original hardshell case.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire an original, PAF loaded classic at about half of what a mint, "showcase only" version might fetch. As the vintage guitar market wakes from its slumber, we are seeing less and less of these early block marker PAF lovelies coming to market. $14,500

20. Bears: Alec Ogletree, ILB, Georgia. If he makes it this far, Ogletree seems like an easy pick. A trade down remains a viable possibility, as the Bears have flexibility as far as needs.
21. Bengals: Desmond Trufant, CB, Washington. Some think they will try to find a right tackle, but there might not be one available worth drafting here.
22. Rams: Kenny Vaccaro, S, Texas. If they take an offensive playmaker with their previous pick, the Rams could go defense with their second first-rounder. RB Eddie Lacy might be in play.
23. Vikings: Sylvester Williams, DT, North Carolina. They figure to draft a receiver with one of their two first-round picks, but they could snag a defender first.
24. Colts: Justin Hunter, WR, Tennessee. This could be the start of a run on receivers. Some think Hunter is better than his teammate Patterson.
25. Vikings: Keenan Allen, WR, California. Some think they might package picks to move up for a more highly rated receiver. A cornerback also is possible.
26. Packers: Tyler Eifert, TE, Notre Dame. What they need most is a running back, but Ted Thompson is pretty good about staying true to the board.
27. Texans: DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Clemson. They also could be tempted by a safety, but the second-round dropoff at receiver will be steeper.
28. Broncos: Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State. Manti Te'o is a possibility here, but John Fox likes big men up front. A pass rusher such as Damontre Moore also would fit.
29. Patriots: Matt Elam, S, Florida. A trade down always is in play with the Patriots. Bill Belichick also has a history of taking defensive linemen high.
30. Falcons: Zach Ertz, TE, Stanford. Tony Gonzalez is back, but that only takes care of 2013. The Falcons need a successor.
31. 49ers: John Jenkins, DT, Georgia. The 49ers like players who can overpower opponents. Jenkins is one of those players.
32. Ravens: Kevin Minter, ILB, LSU. They could move back, but if they stay put, they might try to find a replacement for Ray Lewis. They could have their choice of Minter or Te'o.

By Noel K. Gallagher email@example.com
Staff Writer
Maine schools reported that more than 850 students were physically restrained and hundreds were placed in seclusion in the last year, according to the first statewide data on the sometimes controversial methods that schools use to handle out-of-control students.
This "Thinking Room" at an elementary school in Southern Maine has bean bag chairs and mats for problem kids to sit in seclusion and think about their behavior, according to the school's principal. Maine schools reported that more than 850 students were physically restrained and hundreds were placed in seclusion in the last year, according to the first statewide data on the sometimes controversial methods that schools use to handle out-of-control students.
Gordon Chibroski / Staff Photographer
The information, released Thursday by the state Department of Education, is part of a years-long effort to more closely define what constitutes restraint and seclusion, describe when a teacher is allowed to restrain a student, and spell out mandatory reporting to parents, local school officials and the state.
Educators say that in some cases, restraint or seclusion is needed as a way to give children "time out" periods or keep them from hurting themselves.
Maine overhauled its rules and definitions of restraint and seclusion in the past three years, after a public outcry. Among the changes is a requirement that schools report incidents to the state annually.
For the first reporting year, which ended June 30, 92 of the state's 171 school districts submitted data. Among those that did not report are larger districts, including Biddeford.
The districts that did report had 3,752 instances of physical restraint in the past year, involving between 860 and 1,220 students, according to the data.
Those districts reported 1,405 instances of seclusion, involving between 277 and 533 students.
The numbers may be higher because schools with fewer than 10 students involved reported their numbers only as fewer than 10, and were not more specific.
Because the data covers only one year, it's too soon to draw conclusions from it, said children's advocates and education officials.
There's no way to compare the data directly with data from other states, but the handling of out-of-control students is an issue nationwide. More than 30 states have passed laws regulating restraint, and federal legislation has been proposed.
In March, the U.S. Department of Education published a study that estimated there were 38,792 cases of seclusion or restraint in the 2009-10 school year.
Restraint is defined as using physical force to move a student or keep the student somewhere against their will. It can range from giving a flailing student a bear hug to forcing a child to lie face-down on the floor.
Seclusion is defined as a student involuntarily being alone in a specific space, sometimes in a specially designed room with nothing in it that could cause injury.
Maine changed its definition of restraint at mid-year to say it does not include momentarily touching a student or putting an arm around a student's shoulder to walk them down a hall.
The change may explain why the first set of data varies widely. Some school districts were essentially over-reporting incidents early in the year, officials said.
Regional School Unit 23, which includes Old Orchard Beach, reported 249 restraint incidents with 40 students, and 114 seclusions involving 15 students.
Superintendent Patrick Phillips said the numbers reflect a large district with many students who have behavioral issues, being taught in the legally required "least restrictive" environment.
Also, the district was aggressive in reporting incidents under the new definitions.
The state data separates the numbers for day treatment centers, which serve special-needs students who may be more likely to need restraint.
Those 23 centers reported 1,477 seclusions involving 105 to 145 students, and 7,923 instances of physical restraint involving 523 to 571 students.
