The Russian Boxing Team are enjoying life on the road so far in WSB Season VI. The side kicked off the new campaign with a Week 3 win in Poland, and on a close-run Saturday night of boxing in Vargas, it was the Venezuela Caciques who were the latest victims. A tight 3-2 defeat means the South Americans now have a win and two defeats from their opening three contests.
The hosts' light flyweight Yonny Calderones made his debut in the opening bout, facing Bator Sagaluev, the Russian with a growing AOB reputation for delivering knockout blows. Sagaluev also showed his lightening speed from the opening moments, leaving Calderones chasing shadows and absorbing quick-fire blows until his defences finally capitulated in the fourth round and the visitors seized the early advantage.
Caciques' main draft pick for the new season was the Dominican Republic's Hector Luis Garcia, and he showed how valuable he will be to his new team with an impressive display against Russia's European Games champion Bakhtovar Nazirov. Southpaw Garcia used the middle of the ring to control Nazirov's movements in the first three minutes before raising the tempo with some well-judged uppercuts, controlling the final stages to tie the match.
Promising young Venezuelan Jesus Salvador Correa put up a brave fight against the visitors' tough light welterweight Avak Uzliyan, but the 18 year old was unable to cause an upset and the Russians were ahead once again, before Caciques' Endry Jose Saavedra took the tie down to the wire with a gritty, hard-fought victory over Russia's National Middleweight Champion Andrey Kovalchuk.
That left another Venezuelan draft pick, Ireland's Darren O'Neill, and Russian Team's Sergey Kalchugin to decide the match. The heavyweights felt the pressure in a tight opening bout, but Kalchugin found his range and rhythm as the bout wore on, sapping the Irishman's energies with a series of body blows from which he wasn't able to recover. A unanimous judges' decision awarded the Russian the bout and his side the match, launching them to the top of Group C ahead of a Week 7 trip to Buenos Aires where they will face Argentina Condors on 26 February.

text: I asked this on the Motorola forum as well and am hoping someone somewhere can help. Am I missing a setting that will prevent WiFi from turning off every time the phone sleeps? The only setting I can find asks when to let it sleep and I have it set at never but every time I pick up the phone WiFi has dropped the connection and it takes several minutes to reconnect. With my Droid that never happened, once connected it stayed that way until I turned it off. 3G is terrible in my house so I miss stuff while WiFi is "sleeping". I only have a few days left to return this phone and these small, nagging issues keep turning up making me really consider returning it. I can't find another phone to replace it yet. I really wish I hadn't sold my Droid. I hate to return to my Razr until something good comes out. Thanks for any help, Jim

Avoiding Basic Bathroom Remodel Mistakes
When you design your bathroom remodel, chances are you are looking forward to creating a comfortable and accessible space for everyone in your family. However, during a bathroom remodel, many changes looking like a good idea on paper can actually make the room less desirable when the project is complete.
Reviewing your bathroom design multiple times before demolition is significant because not only do you want certain amenities added in your bathroom remodel, but you also want to avoid mistakes you'll hate having to live with. A very common challenge is how the toilet is placed in your bathroom design. In larger floor-plans a private area is a definite option. With smaller bathrooms, other ideas are available to help the aesthetics of your bathroom. Below are a few ideas.

Bathroom Remodel Ideas for the Elderly In Waukesha WI
A bathroom remodel is one of the most basic adjustments to make when preparing a home for aging homeowners.
As more seniors choose to remain living in their homes instead of an assisted living facility or nursing home, more accessibility is a primary need. For many, a bathroom remodel such as this helps people maintain their independence and dignity.
Changes allowing freedom of movement without the risk of slips and falls is paramount. To achieve this goal, options such as walk-in bathtubs or showers, grab bars, specific use lighting and more should be part of the bathroom remodel plan.
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention says about 235,000 annually people seek medical attention for bathroom-related injuries. The result is safety should be the most important quality when developing an accessible bathroom remodel. Continue reading

Corporate Culture: Truth vs. B.S.
I just read an interview with Samuel Culbert—a professor at UCLA's Anderson School of Management and the author of Beyond Bullsh*t—arguing that how people talk to each other at work affects the success of their businesses.
Culbert asserts that "bulls—t has become the etiquette of choice in office life," and that it can undermine a workplace because "it makes people feel beaten up, deceived—even dirty."
He defines "bulls—t" as "telling people you what you think they need to hear." He maintains that—even though bullsh–tting sometimes keeps "the corporate peace"—it is "always self-serving" since it "may involve finessing the truth or outright lying." This in turn suppresses the real, or best, ideas and so the company suffers in the long run. Straight talk at work, then, signals a more robust work environment and healthier company because it indicates a workplace that has a culture built on trust and good ideas.
So—any thoughts on the tradeoff between truth and hurt feelings? Have you come across any workplace tips for encouraging truth (and don't say staff meetings or cc's on emails!) On the other hand, do you have any examples of yes-men or –women bringing a company down?

STAFF from a social housing group have gone back to school to help pupils with their reading skills.
Officers from Teesdale Housing Association (THA) have been making use of their organisation's policy which allows them to volunteer for community projects.
As a result, they are working with pupils from Evenwood Primary School, listening to the children read and helping the youngsters develop their abilities using the school's reading skills and phonics programme.

Peter Locke, community investment officer at Teesdale Housing Association, said: "We have many properties in Evenwood and we have a significant impact on the local community.
"We want to ensure that impact is as positive as possible and by working with Evenwood School, we give ourselves the best chance of doing just that."
Acting head Angela Rees added: "We're delighted to welcome members of staff from Teesdale Housing Association.
"We're sure it will be a rewarding experience for the volunteers as well as our pupils."
The involvement of volunteers represents another stage in a growing relationship between the housing association and Evenwood School.
THA also helped to set up a Breakfast Club for pupils, in partnership with charity The Greggs Foundation.

In a book that promises to become legendary, author Mark Kroese gets fifty of the most accomplished climbers of this generation to reveal their all-time favorite climbs. Renowned climber Tony Yaniro reveals his personal challenges and controversies as he ascents Scirocco, east face of the Sorcerer at the Needles in California. More inside scoop from Roxanna Brock, Mark Twight, Jared Ogden and other great climbers proves a riveting read.
Each story includes a climber profile, garnered from hours of fascinating, thought-provoking, and often downright fun interviews. The climbers share personal anecdotes and offer their views on everything from ethics to style to training techniques. These well-crafted profiles give the reader a real sense of todayÆs leading climbers.
From Newfoundland to Yosemite, Mexico to British Columbia, the favorite routes offers excellent climbing, stunning views, wild exposure, or spectacular summits. Each one includes a summary, description of the approach, the route itself, and the descent, along with first-ascent information, ratings, time required, recommended equipment, best season, special considerations, and references.

It is an unfortunate reality for the serious concertgoer that on occasion, there will be more than one show on any given night that you really, really, REALLY wanna go to. Since the vast majority of us don't own a time machine, nor have the ability to either clone ourselves or split ourselves in half (or thirds or quarters depending on the night in question), this tends to present a problem. Difficult decisions are made based on a variety of variables (perhaps some of you even make lists of pros and cons), and ultimately, a show is chosen. But those other shows are still gonna be killer, and I'd like to give a little face time to the shows that, while I can't go myself, are still highly recommended.
I have to tell y'all, the idea of the Black Cat being packed to the rafters full of revelers going absolutely nuts over Crystal Castles makes me pretty bummed that I won't be around to get to the show. The 10/8 show in question is sold out, but the resourceful among you will do what you need to do to get in there and enjoy the diabolical, snarling electro thrash goodness right there with the rest of the cool kids.

Tim Winton's classic first novel, full of wonderful characterisations and rich and evocative language. Jerra and his best mate Sean set off in a beaten-up old VW to go camping on the coast. Jerra's friends and family want to know when he will finish university, when he will find a girl. But they don't understand about Sean's mother, Jewel, or the bush or the fish with the pearl. They think he needs a job, but what Jerra is searching for is more elusive. Only the sea, and perhaps the old man who lives in a shack beside it, can help. An Open Swimmer is a remarkable first novel by award-winning author Tim Winton.More
Narrator Humphrey Bower's moody, lyrical performance is shot through with nervy energy as teenaged protagonist Jerra Nilsam comes to grips with the bittersweet moments of adulthood. Jerra's family wants him to finish university and settle down with a girl, but Jerra has dark shadows in his conscience, and a camping trip with his best friend Sean brings them out into the light. Bower's voice wraps itself around the rich language of the story as the two friends encounter an old man whose conscience is even more burdened than Jerra's and find the tight knot of their friendship unraveling. Listeners will be haunted by Bower's vivid evocation of the story's painful yet cathartic climax.
"Amid brooding images of mutilation and guilt, awakening sexuality and displacement of ideals ... Winton draws together a delicate pattern of images and tensions and energy. His first novel, it is a work of energy and restraint." (The Good Reading Guide)

David Ortiz: Hopeful of playing Friday; more teammates 'probably' should've gone to Pesky funeral
Speaking to a handful of reporters for nearly 30 minutes in the Red Sox' dugout, David Ortiz said he's hopeful of being ready to play tomorrow night in the series-opener against the Kansas City Royals.
Asked if more of his teammates should've attended Johnny Pesky's funeral Monday, Ortiz said, "Probably." He also weighed in on the recent suspensions of Melky Cabrera and Bartolo Colon for testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs.
A few highlights from our conversation with Ortiz (AP photo, right):
(On the status of his strained right Achilles): "I feel OK. I'm not ready ready, but I think I can play like this. Hopefully I'll continue to improve. I'm not (90 percent) there yet. But I'm getting closer. It's better. It's not like it used to be. It's not as painful. But not until I stop doing things (after the season), I'm not going to be like normal. I'm trying my best like I always do, and whatever happens, happens. But I know my presence in the lineup is going to get things better."
(On being among only four Red Sox players to attend Pesky's funeral): "I mean, me personally, I was close to Johnny. When it comes down to a funeral situation, there's not a reason why you wouldn't show up when a friend passes away. I feel like I've got to be there for his family. Everybody got his particular reasons why some of the guys didn't show up. We've got a late schedule that day. We came back from New York very late, and some of the guys probably have some things to do that day. That was probably the reason why some of the guys didn't show up." (Ortiz added that he scrapped his family plans in order to attend the funeral.) I can tell you why I showed up: I had a friend that just passed away, and I want to be there."
(On whether more players should've been there): "Well, you know, I mean, probably. It probably was the best thing to do, but like I say, everybody has his opinion, things to do. I'm nobody to say who should and who shouldn't. Hopefully people don't make a big deal about it. We don't need that right now. We just need to continue playing and focus on winning some games so we can go to the playoffs."
(On the suspensions of Cabrera and Colon): "Our drug program is legit. It's legit. You don't get away with (expletive). You see the way they test you, the way they do it, tells you a lot. (Ortiz said he has been tested 2-3 times this year; once was tested at least seven times in a season.) Those two guys are really good friends of mine. You don't want to see a friend struggle, and I know they're struggling big-time right now. But it is what it is. You've got to take responsibility for making decisions. Hopefully they learned their lesson and move on."
(On MLB's drug testing program): "Everybody needs to be careful. They're not trying to make nobody look like (expletive). They want everybody to be clean and to be the right way. They want to make sure that we do it the right way. If you want to be part of MLB, you've got to keep clean. You've got to keep clean. I absolutely understand. I don't think it's unfair at all. At all. I'm a huge believer of the drug program. No doubt about it. These guys that do the tests for us, they want to make sure that you watch everything they do, that you agree with everything that they are doing. They want to make sure that everything goes the right way, and I can tell you that because I've been tested more than 20 times (since 2004). And they show you. It's something that, me personally, I don't have no doubt about our drug program."
(On judging players who test positive): "What's the point of making a (expletive) of money, and the next thing you know, you can't even enjoy it. It's like, yeah, I got paid. I make a lot of money. But next thing you know, you pull up with cancer or some (expletive) like that, and then somebody else is earning your money. Like I say, I don't criticize nobody for their decision. Everybody has reasons to do whatever they do. That's the way I look at it. I want to say, when I'm done with this, party like a rock star."

The Westin Paris – Vendôme
Paris, France
As Seen in Yves Saint Laurent
DESCRIPTION: Sleek black dresses with oversized bows, Parisian chic wool coats, and lacy wedding dresses for the royal and famous. As the youngest head designer of Christian Dior, Yves Saint Laurent brought unforgettable collections to the runways during his early years at Dior. But when his genius leads him to more experimental designs like color-blocked shifts, unhappy financiers and critics intensify their pressure on an already fragile Saint Laurent. Opened in 1878, the Westin Paris was designed to be the most luxurious hotel in Paris, quickly cementing its status as the preferred accommodations of overseas royalty. Today, located steps away from Tuileries Garden, the Louvre, and Champs Elysees Avenue, the hotel is popular with tourists who seek not only an ideal location but also a bit of old Parisian glamour. Scroll down to see more film locations identifed from Yves Saint Laurent.

Consumers rely more and more on their Smartphones. Research shows 9 out of 10 consumers keep their phones within reach 24/7. This has a huge impact on the way people search, view and buy products online. As you can see from the research of ComScore, mobile traffic has overtaken desktop in 2014 and will continue to grow.
Number of global users (Millions)
Source: ComScore (2015)
With shoppers increasingly using their smartphones to search and browse, it's essential for online retailers to keep track of the mobile share of eCommerce transactions. In 'The State of Mobile Commerce 2016, Criteo shows mobile transactions are outgrowing desktop. In the U.S. 52% of all e-commerce transactions were mobile in 2016. Other European countries are trending in the same direction (UK 51%, GER 38%, NL 36%), underlining the importance of Mobile Commerce for online retailers.
Source: Criteo (2016)
Research by Flurry shows that 90% of time spent on mobile devices is spent within Apps, versus 10% spent on mobile browsers. Time spent in Apps grew from 126 to 198 minutes over the last 3 years, while time spent on mobile browser decreased from 32 to 22 minutes. Although social media and news account for most of this usage, the next research will show, customers are also embracing Mobile Apps for Shopping. Retailers should meet their customers wherever they are.
Source: Flurry (2015)
Source: Opera Mediaworks (2016)
Although not all ecommerce companies have a Mobile App, the research of Opera Mediaworks (2016) in the UK shows 37% of consumers already prefer in-app shopping over Mobile Sites (23%). The researchers expect that the 40% of indifferent consumers will grow towards Shopping Apps too, as consumers say they find Shopping Apps more customized to their needs and they experience a smoother check-out.
Source: Compuware (2013)
So why do people prefer Shopping Apps over Mobile Websites? Compuware shows consumers who prefer Mobile Apps over browsers do so for Convenience, Speed and Personalized Experience. Other research states that respondents say Apps offer access to more features and capabilities, for instance receiving push notifications.
When talking mobile commerce, it's tempting to get caught up in a discussion about channels and devices. But in the end, it's always been about people. Research done by Facebook shows that in the United States, Millennials, Moms and Multiculturals are responsible for most of the revenue within Mobile Commerce. Millennials tend to use Apps the most (61% download Retail Apps). Facebook says "What Millennials are doing, is what everybody will be doing soon."
Collectively, these groups drove 81% of Mobile Transactions
Source: Facebook (2015)
Consumers are choosing Mobile Apps over Mobile sites, because they feel the shopping experience is better and more customized to their desires. But how do Mobile Apps perform, compared to Mobile Sites and Desktop? In other words: what will be your ROI?
The research of Criteo shows Mobile Apps deliver 2x the new user retention power. This means new Mobile App users are twice as likely to return within 30 days vs. Mobile Web users. Higher retention means a better chance at creating lifetime consumers. Most customers who are still using a Shopping App after two weeks will become long-term users. We all know that keeping a customer versus attracting new customers is far more profitable and less expensive than attracting new customers.
In the State of Mobile Commerce by Criteo among the world's top 25% leading mobile retailers, it's clear that Desktop is no longer the king of pricey purchases. Average order values on Apps now far surpasses both Mobile Browser and Desktop. When customers spent 100 Dollars in Desktop, in comparison, consumers will spent 127 Dollars witin Mobile Apps and 95 within Mobile Sites.

Having a Native App ensures that your users can quickly and easily accomplish their goals. Native Apps have features that Mobile Sites don't, like the ability to send out push messages and alerts. Push messages have an open rate of 50-80%. By deep linking to products in push messages you encourage immediate action in the App. Other features driving sales are wish lists and shoppable lookbooks, which double average order value.
A successful mobile commerce strategy that makes your customers happy, involves both a responsive website and a Native Mobile App. People prefer using multiple channels before they make a decision. Your App and site will not compete with each other, but they will strengthen your cross-channel marketing. Your responsive website makes sure you attract new customers, via Social Media, Blogs or Search. Your Mobile App makes sure they stay and convert.
So, does your business really need a Mobile App, when you already have a mobile site? 12 years ago shop owners asked the same question about websites, because they already had a physical store. Just because you don't depend on an App today, doesn't mean it won't change your business tomorrow. Go for the best Mobile Commerce strategy and create your Native App for free today!

The Favourite Game Trailer (2003)
28 February 2003 Drama 101 mins
As a kid, Leo thought he possessed, like a magician, the secret power to make things happen. As a young man, he certainly knows how to make things happen with women. But as his best friend Krantz would say to him, "Why do you always ask questions you already know answers to?". Leo believes firmly in what he invents from one day to the next. Images, impressions, stories fill his head. That's just how he is: life, for Leo, is just a game. Behind this childlike attitude, hides the very essence of his own life's quest.

Grave of 'Robin Hood' found buried with quiver and arrows in mountains
THE grave of a Siberian 'Robin Hood' has been unearthed in the Altai Mountains.
A medieval archer was buried with his elaborate quiver and arrows in a special tomb wedged into a hole in a cliff.
The remains are believed to be those of a Mongolian marksman who held sway in the area between 1200 and 1500 AD.
His "unique and sophisticated" quiver made of birch bark and fitted with silk ribbons had pockets for different types of arrows.
Some of the arrows with iron heads have survived.
"He is believed to be a warrior with a talent for archery who lived around the 13th to 15th centuries like the legendary outlaw Robin Hood in England"The Siberian Times
No other examples of such a quiver have been found in Siberia, say archeologists.
The grave including the remains of the man were found by villagers in cliffs near Kokorya, in the remote Altai Republic.
"He is believed to be a warrior with a talent for archery who lived around the 13th to 15th centuries like the legendary outlaw Robin Hood in England," reported The Siberian Times.
Elaborate bone decorations found inside the grave were once embedded in the quiver.
Vasily Oinoshev, director of the Agency for Cultural and Historical Heritage of the Altai Republic, said: "The quiver is a very interesting one.
"It has separate 'pockets' for different types of arrows.
"This quiver is a great find, it is very well preserved."
The remains of the archer inside a wooden sarcophagus will be opened and examined next summer.
Dr Nikita Konstantinov, Head of the Museum of Gorno-Altaisk State University, said they hope to find the archer's bow, his saddle and other treasures in his "coffin" which has remained preserved due to the Siberian cold.
His arrowheads suggested he was a warrior - but also a hunter, he said.
This Robin Hood may have been part of a Mongolian force that conquered and held southern Siberia in medieval times.
"The archer is likely to have been held in high respect, confirmed by the location of his burial and the care taken to send him into the next life with his arrows and 'sophisticated' quiver," said the report.
The story of Robin Hood became popular in Russia in Soviet times, because the accent on stealing from the rich to give to the poor was seen as fitting with the Communist ideology of the times.
A movie, The Arrows of Robin Hood, was made in 1975 by Soviet director by Sergei Tarasov.

text: On November 2, 2015, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed an amicus curiae brief in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, urging reversal of a February 2015 district court decision in a dispute between Wisconsin-based grocery chain Woodman's Food Market, Inc., and household products manufacturer Clorox. The district court's decision allowed Woodman's to proceed on its claim that Clorox violated the Robinson-Patman Act by discontinuing sales of "large pack" sizes of certain products to Woodman's while continuing to sell those sizes to warehouse club retailers. As detailed in a November 5 announcement, FTC's brief argues that the decades-old administrative decisions on which the district court's opinion relied are "no longer good law because they are out-of-step with more recent FTC and federal court cases that interpret the Robinson-Patman Act narrowly and consistently with other antitrust laws." On December 2, 2015, the National Grocers Association filed its own amicus brief, arguing that the district court's decision was correct. The appeal is currently pending oral argument before the Seventh Circuit, and the district court litigation is stayed pending the outcome of the appeal.

What Did the North Do?
I have been learning about World War One and I decided that we did not learn enough about what the Canadians did to contribute during the war. I know that the United States and the United Kingdom did a lot to work together to try to defeat the axis but what did Canada do? I decided that I would go online and learn about what they did to help the allies. I heard that book cscs was a great place to learn about how the axis worked with different countries to defeat their enemies. My school teacher was a big help in showing me where to get the information that I was looking for. I was not sure about where the online web sites came from, but hey were a big help. The biggest help was having my teacher post the links to the web sites that were going to be able to help us with the reports.
I love to write and do a lot of reading but the topic has to be interesting to me so that I can push through it.

By Katie Kearsey You know social media is important for your small business – that's why you're reading the Likeable Blog. You also know it takes work to be great on social, but you're faced with limited time, budget and resources and you're not quite sure where to get started. This blog post is one in a series of four in which I will provide you with the necessary tools, tips, tricks and best practices to make your efforts in social the best they can be.
The first step to being a successful small business in the social space is to select your network carefully. You shouldn't be on each and every network, but instead must cut through the clutter and determine which ones are best suited for your needs, and which ones are most doable in terms of time and effort required. It's important to choose a network that is in line with your business needs, but make sure it's one you can be passionate about – no one wants to dedicate time to working on a network he or she dislikes. You should know the main functions and uses of each network, your target demographic and the demographic found on each network, and how much time you realistically have to dedicate to social media.
Still unsure which network is right for you? Here's a brief rundown. Facebook and Twitter are great for engaging and interacting with fans, followers & customers, sharing multimedia content & information, providing customer service, offering contests & promotions, and driving traffic to your website and/or blog. Twitter generally requires more time for community management, as it's important to respond to and interact with followers in a timely manner. Yelp is a great option for brick-and-mortar retailers, as it enables users to discover, review and share your amazing local business. It also allows your business to monitor the page for honest feedback, to interact with customers publicly or privately, and to provide customers with up-to-date information about your business. Other niche networks to consider include Pinterest, Instagram, Flickr, LinkedIn and Google+.
Once you've selected your network(s), it's time to plan your overall strategy, followed by a task breakdown on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. Establishing clear objectives and guidelines in the beginning is a major timesaver in the long run, as you'll know exactly what you need to do and when you need to do it to meet your goals.
In terms of overall strategy, you'll first need to determine what you're trying to accomplish. Are you aiming to drive sales? Are you seeking community growth? Are you looking to engage with fans, followers, current customers and potential customers? Once you've decided upon your objective, you must figure out how you're going to measure success using key performance indicators (KPIs). You should also plan how often you're going to post and how quickly you will respond to your fans and followers when they speak to you.
Tasks should be broken down into three tiers, daily, weekly and monthly, and should be kept somewhere for easy reference. On a daily basis, you should sweep your social channel(s) at least 2-3 times, and you should respond to all fans and followers in a timely manner. If you're social ads, you should also monitor and optimize these 2-3 times each day (more details to come in a future post). You should also spend 15 minutes searching for current events, articles and trends that are relevant to your small business or industry, and share them with your fans and followers. On a weekly basis, you should monitor and track community growth and engagement to keep tabs of what is working and what isn't working. On a monthly basis, you should develop two to four weeks of content so you have something planned to share with your community each day. You should also analyze all of your successes and failures to determine which strategies worked, which ones didn't, and how your future strategy will change as a result.
With a network and initial strategy in place, you're nearly ready to get started. The next post in this series will focus on a number of community management and reporting tools that will save you precious time and money. Later in the series, you can also expect to learn tips and tricks for the content creation process, website socialization, and online/offline integration. I will be concluding the series with a set of case studies of small businesses that have done big things on social media. Stay tuned!

Future Free Agents: Karl Alzner
Cam Lewis
January 11 2017 12:00PM
Future Free Agents is a semi-regular feature on NHLNumbers profiling players from 2017's potential free agency class.
With Brent Burns signed in San Jose, the 2017 unrestricted free agent defenceman market gets very thin very fast. You have Kevin Shattenkirk as your clear cut top option, especially for those teams who need a boost in production from the blue line. Then, after him, you have Karl Alzner, the best option for a team looking for a steady, consistent, shut down guy.
But as we've seen over the past few summers, teams are becoming skeptical of handing big contracts to stay at home defencemen like Alzner who contribute little offensively. Is he still going to be able to command the salary of a top pairing defenceman on the open market? With the league's gradual shift to analytics, is he still a valued commodity?
How good is he?
Karl Alzner is revered as one of the league's best defensive, shut down defencemen. He's big, strong, is an excellent, smooth skater, and has a fantastic sense of positional awareness. When he's on the ice, he looks calm and poised, and the game just kind of slows down around him. He's also tremendously reliable, as he hasn't missed a game due to injury since the 2009-10 season.
But players like this are quite a conundrum. New-age hockey theory suggests defencemen should be mobile and fluid, and need to be able to produce, or at least assist in driving team offensive production. Traditional hockey theory for many, many years has ran on the notion that it's the defenceman's job to be a defenceman, and that there are offensive defencemen and defensive defencemen who play in different situations. But that's rapidly changing, as the big, physical, shut down defenceman seems to be going extinct in favour of more skilled and creative blue liners.
Alzner doesn't produce a lick offensively. He never has, and never will. It isn't part of his game at all, as he's managed just 19 goals and 490 shots on net over a 549-game NHL career. So his calling card, and, ultimately his worth as a free agent on the open market, is entirely based on his ability to play defence. Like I said, Alzner is commonly talked about as an elite shut down defender, among names like Marc-Edouard Vlasic, Chris Tanev, and Andy Greene. The eye test seems to validate this claim, but do the numbers?
On-ice, even strength, score adjusted metrics among defencemen from 2014 to 2017 (min. 1000 minutes)
Off the hop, Alzner's ability to stop the other team from scoring looks impressive. Only one guy over the past three seasons is on the ice for fewer goals against per hour than Alzner is? Damn! That certainly looks like an elite defensive defenceman. But when you dig further, it becomes a little more complicated.
Alzner's shot, shot attempt, and unblocked shot attempt numbers against per hour are solid, but come nowhere near matching his goals against results. So how, if his shot numbers are nothing more than solid, does he manage to have an elite result in keeping the puck out of the net?
His 94.94 on-ice save percentage would do the trick. There's still an argument within the analytics community as to how much credit or criticism an individual player should get for a good or bad on-ice save percentage. The argument in favour of Alzner and other players of his kind would indicate that what he does well, like blocking shots, keeping pucks to the outside, or playing physically in front of the net lead to the other team not getting high quality chances, and thus, scoring fewer goals when he's on the ice.
I think there's some merit to that, but since his shots against results are quite a but worse than his goals against results, we have to look at some other factors. Before we give credit to Alzner for singlehandedly making Washington better at not allowing goals, we should look at what the rest of the team is doing.
As the chart above shows, Alzner ranks second in goals against per hour. His teammates, Nate Schmidt and Matt Niskanen, rank fourth and sixth respectively. Past them, Dmitry Orlov ranks 42nd and John Carlson ranks 48th. So five of Washington's defencemen are in the top 50 in the NHL over the past three seasons and stopping the other team from scoring.
With that considered, we have to assume that, to an extent, Alzner is the benefactor of external factors. First and foremost, Braden Holtby is an excellent goaltender. Having him be the last line of defence when you're playing will certainly play a big role in you not being on the ice for goals against. Also, Barry Trotz runs a damn good defensive system. This was evident in his time in Nashville, and it's evident with both the eye test and the numbers now that he's in Washington.
Obviously defencemen, and, well, the defensive aspect of the game in general is tremendously difficult to analyze, but what we have here is a player with statistics that simply don't match the notion of elite play. Alzner's numbers suggest he's good at shutting the other team down, but he isn't elite. And if your calling card as a player is based entirely around shutting the other team down, you simply have to be better than good at doing so.
How much is he going to cost?
Nick Kypreos, who has proven to be very reliable in reporting insider information over the past few years, discussed Alzner with Elliotte Freidman on Hockey Night in Canada back in November. The video is embedded above for those who want full context, but I'll get right to the point.
Elliotte Friedman: Eight times eight and it takes the best available defenseman in this summer's free agent market off the market. So we're talking about who's next. I think there's two guys. There's Kevin Shattenkirk and Karl Alzner, who Nick will talk about in a moment.
I understand that last summer, there were two teams that were given permission to talk to Kevin Shattenkirk by St. Louis. I believe that was Edmonton and Arizona. The teams aren't commenting. The agent's not commenting. From what I understand that was the case. Shattenkirk wasn't interested in Edmonton. Arizona did have some movement, but obviously not far enough to get a deal done. A lot of teams think Shattenkirk likes the Rangers, but they do think if there's a bidding war there, it could push him up close to $7 million.
Nick Kypreos: So Elliotte, if you need offense, you go Shattenkirk. If you need a shutdown guy, you go Karl Alzner here. And if you're now the Washington Capitals and you've got as many as 10 contracts expiring at the end of the year and one of them is Karl Alzner, you're going to have some challenges here. The problem now is the price has been set for Karl Alzner is as much as $6 million… they believe… is going-rate for a top-four defenseman. They can't go down that path. Not until you truly know what you want to do.
That's.. Uhh. That's certainly something.
The $6 million figure certainly isn't the going rate for a top-four defenceman, as that cap hit would put a player in the top 20 in the league among defencemen heading into 2017-18. And when looking at the names in that category, none of them are players who are purely shut down defencemen. All of them either drive offence while on the ice, produce 30 points or more, or can be used as an option on the power play.
When you look at comparables for old school, high level, minute munching, stay at home guys, you can see why Alzner's camp would start at $6 million. Brooks Orpik makes $5.5 million, Marc Staal $5.7, Dan Girardi $5.5, and so on. None of them are as good as Alzner is in similar roles.
But those are also some of the more maligned contracts in the league right now. And as we've seen over the past couple of offseasons, teams aren't quite as excited to give out big money to guys who don't bring offence to the table as they used to be. Also, with more front offices moving towards embracing a new age style of analysis, there'll likely be fewer teams lining up for Alzner's services. That's what went down with Kris Russell, who was arguably the 2016 crop's biggest defensive defenceman name on the market last summer.
So, overall, it's difficult to see Alzner actually getting $6 million annually on a long-term deal when it's all said and done, even if we throw out the numbers from the last section and assume he truly is the cream of the crop in his role.
But anyways, for the sake of the article, let's just say that Alzner gets what he wants and is going to cost $6 million over a five- or six-year deal.
Can Washington afford it?
At that price? No way.
The Capitals have a quickly closing Stanley Cup contention window right now. Along with Alzner, the Caps have T.J. Oshie, Justin Williams, and Daniel Winnik set to hit the open market this summer. They also have to hand out new contracts Evgeny Kuznetsov, Andrei Burakovsky, Dmitry Orlov, and multiple others.
They currently have about $50 million tied into six forwards, four defencemen, and one goalie heading into 2017-18. Depending on where the cap ends up, that gives them roughly $21 million for the other half of their roster. So it isn't going to be easy to fit that collection of pay raises into their salary spreadsheet.
If Washington was to make this work, they would likely have to move Brooks Orpik's contract without taking much back in return. That obviously isn't going to happen. Otherwise, they'll have to prioritize Alzner's contract demands over those of, say, Oshie, who's also going to be looking for a raise. Again, that's probably not going to happen. It's realistically going to come down to Alzner accepting a hometown discount to stick around in Washington, and based on that $6 million figure Kypreos said he's throwing out there, I doubt that's going to happen.
If he hits the open market...
Teams won't be tripping over themselves to get to him like they will with Shattenkirk, but there's definitely going to be a handful of teams interested in signing a consistent, reliable blue liner like Alzner.
The Buffalo Sabres are the first team that comes to mind. They have a pretty putrid blue line right now, especially on the left side. Dmitry Kulikov, who was acquired in a deal with the Computer Boys in Florida last summer, was supposed to be their rugged, shut down solution, but he's struggled with injury and is an unrestricted free agent at season's end. Maybe they walk away from Kulikov and replace him with Alzner, or hell, they can sign both and try to rid themselves of one of their many horrible contracts instead (Gorges, Kane, Moulson, etc).
The Boston Bruins also make sense as a fit for Alzner. Their defence is pretty thin, Zdeno Chara is reaching the end and they could certainly use an heir to his throne. Is Alzner Chara? Absolutely not. Not even close. But we know the Bruins front office digs this kind of old school player and they sure aren't afraid to make a splash in free agency.
So do the Dallas Stars. The Stars let their top two defencemen, Alex Goligoski and Jason Demers walk last summer, and didn't bite on giving a long-term deal to Kris Russell, who they acquired at the trade deadline. They instead filled the hole with Dan Hamhuis on a nice, manageable two-year deal, and Johnny Oduya's contract comes to an end this summer, so they certainly have the flexibility to throw some money and term at Alzner.
And those are just three teams that make sense as a possible fit. There are certainly going to be more out there who would be interested in Alzner. Will there be as many as the teams who want the offence producing, right handed Kevin Shattenkirk? Unlikely. But still, there's a decent market here. Possibly even big enough that Alzner could end up getting paid that $6 million annual salary he's set. Who knows!
Personally, I wouldn't sign Karl Alzner to a big money contract. He's going to be 29 years old in September, has a lot of miles on him, and doesn't have the underlying numbers to support the claim that he truly is an elite defender beyond a reasonable doubt.
You can probably knock all of the fancy stat teams, like Toronto, Florida, Arizona, and Carolina out of the conversation, along with teams in tough cap situations like Los Angeles, the New York Rangers, Pittsburgh, Chicago, and so on.
But even then, you still have a decent sized group of teams who could use a steady and consistent stay at home guy like Alzner even if the numbers don't necessarily back up what his visuals suggest. But that said, he's still the best defenceman of his kind on the market right now, and as we'll see as I dig further into the free agency class, it get really ugly really fast after Alzner and Shattenkirk.

I still think every team needs an Alzner type. Oilers already have a better version in Larsson
January 11 2017, 12:10PM
Quarterback. Period. Don't need Alzner ESPECIALLY at that price.
I wonder the PENS would move that Schultz guy ? Or a Petry from MTL, man that would help eh ?
I wonder about a stat that might be interesting to help gauge a defender...average distance of shot against. I say that because Alzner has a high save percentage but he lets an average amount of shots through. A good defender will either stop the sortie, or the opposing player will realize he's oigng to be stopped and throw a shot on goal from a distance - which will be easier to save and therefore pump up on ice save percentage...is average-shot-against-distance something that's tracked at all?
January 11 2017, 12:38PM
How about we let our group of defensemen grow and flourish together.
Larrsonn, Sekera, Nurse (upcoming) and Klefbom are all signed long term. Russell seems to be a great fit. Davy and Benning are lights out value contracts. And guys like Fayne and Gryba round out even the best teams because they are capable 6/7 D men that can be had for low cap hits. Unless a trade happens I think this is what we have moving forward. Remember that long term we have Bear, Jones, the new kids drafted in 2016, so hopefully someone emerges as another quality piece from that group.
We cannot afford a big free agent signing. A trade will be the only way we should be looking at improving what we have.
I fully agree that we would like a hammer from the point. Maybe we need to look for a power play specialist that plays 3rd pairing minutes. But that puts Benning in the press box. Maybe we need to find a forward with a hammer for a shot, slot him on the 4th line and put him on the PP point.
January 11 2017, 12:41PM
I still think every team needs an Alzner type. Oilers already have a better version in Larsson
And a similar player in Russel too. And a lesser talented on in Gryba. We definitely have that style of defenseman covered on this roster.
January 11 2017, 12:46PM
LOL...not that this article was about the Oilers pursuing Karl Alzner...sorry if offended.
January 11 2017, 01:08PM
No thanks. Need an offensive Dman significantly more than a defensive one. And 6 mil is crazy, might as well keep Russel for less.
Alzner will get paid. Some fool opps GM always ponies up for free agents.
January 11 2017, 02:26PM
sign alzner, trade klefbom for trouba and eberle for sverson.
Sekera - Larsson
Nurse - Trouba
Alzner - Sverson
Davidson - Benning
Than sign Beglund and Oshie
January 11 2017, 02:52PM
I'd only be interested in shattenkirk to replace Kurt Russell. weve got a shutdown guy in Larson so it would be nice to have someone who can produce points on D. Ideally the 3rd pair should be young cheap players, especially in the salary cap era. Sekera, sexbomb on the left and shattenkirk, Larson on the right.
If he doesn't want to come here then we just hold onto Russell as a stop gap.
Hmmm, no. I think for the most part the D is looking pretty mobile. It's a shame we didn't get to see Nurse all year as I would have liked to see if he could continue progressing and bring more puck moving into his game. But Sekera, Klefbom, Benning, Davidson, and even Larsson and Russel at least move the puck pretty well. I'm not sure adding Alzner, especially for a lengthy term is the right way to go. We need an internal candidate that can become the next Tyson Barry. Maybe it's Benning. But I would look at a guy like Mike Stone in Arizona and see if they can pull him out at a buy low price.
Alternatively, if they do go the shut down route, then Vlasic only has one more year left on his contract. I'd look at what it would take to get him here. Nearly 40 points a year playing against the toughest competition. It would mean you could put Larsson on the second pair. Not that he needs to be there, but think of how much better he'd be if he was. Still no PP quaterback, but again maybe Benning gets there.
January 11 2017, 03:20PM
No thanks. Left side is packed, we just need that #1 right shot D that would put everybody in the right spot Larsson as 2nd and Benning as 3rd and the left side with Klefbom, Sekera and Nurse also Davidson if Vagas doesn't take him.
January 11 2017, 03:59PM
I'm all for signing Kris Russell right now to a 2 year deal for the same or close to what he's making now. This is just backup for when Davidson gets picked by Vegas. That way we already have Russell signed and don't have to go make dumb deals for free agents like Alzner.
How about we let our group of defensemen grow and flourish together.
Larrsonn, Sekera, Nurse (upcoming) and Klefbom are all signed long term. Russell seems to be a great fit. Davy and Benning are lights out value contracts. And guys like Fayne and Gryba round out even the best teams because they are capable 6/7 D men that can be had for low cap hits. Unless a trade happens I think this is what we have moving forward. Remember that long term we have Bear, Jones, the new kids drafted in 2016, so hopefully someone emerges as another quality piece from that group.

Why does Edm need a hammer from the point? Isnt their PP one of the best in the league?
A top line RW to play with McD and a 3rd line center are at the top of the list for me.
January 11 2017, 08:00PM
They surely do not need another shut down D ,They have guys that will get better at shutdown as they gain more experience
If the oilers are going to pay decent money for D , they need to acquire a good offensive D man that can hammer the puck with accuracy from the point . Watch the best teams and they usually have this, it's a constant threat worth respecting and it opens up alot of space down low for the forwards.It's possible Klefbom,Davidson or nurse will start gaining more confidence in their shot and it will develop further but a shot like Burns has is few and far between.
January 11 2017, 09:31PM
This is the way a good GM and an organization with accountability and depth must be thinking in today's salary cap NHL, you make some good points and a GM in today's NHL must constantly be thinking on many levels analysing the many aspects that make up a good player and how that player will fit into the team as a whole .
January 12 2017, 03:23PM
i have a buddy who thinks alzner is a top 10 dman in the nhl. my friends arent very smart, but either are nhl gms this man gonna get paiiiiiiddd

Or maybe they are moving on to other projects until we get the 4.3 TW update. Then, hopefully some of them will return and develop for one of the top devices still on the market. The Note 3 will most likely be locked down like the S4 so I am thinking the Note 2 may be the last great Samsung device open to rooting and having the ability to flash custom ROMs.
To all the devs that made (or still making) great TW ROMs for our VZW Note 2, thanks for all your hard work. I know I have enjoyed being able to try different ROMs and tinkering with them.

Los Angeles, Oct 20 (IANS) Justin Timberlake was feted at the Memphis Music Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony on Saturday.
The star was introduced by comedian-actor Jimmy Fallon, at the Cannon Center in Memphis, Tennessee, reports aceshowbiz.com.
The singer-turned-actor got emotional during his acceptance speech and said: "I am truly honoured to be able to stand on the shoulders of all these legends that I grew up listening to and I grew up admiring to say that I stand alongside them now."
"This is the f*cking coolest thing that has ever happened to me," he added.
Timberlake also compared it with the Grammy and Emmy awards.
"The Grammys are political. The Emmys are political. Memphis is not political. And don't get me started on Hollywood," he said.
The Memphis-born musician also paid tribute to his root.
"My favorite part about this city is we don't apologize for who we are, and that's who this city has taught me to be," he said.
Decked out in a Tom Ford suit, Timberlake collaborated with R&B icon Sam Moore on "Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay".

Employees of Azerbaijan's Ministry of Ecology attends int'l conference
05 March 2013 [16:44] -
Delegation of the Azerbaijan's Ministry of Ecology led by Deputy Minister Rauf Hajiyev participates in the 16th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) in Bangkok, Thailand.
The meeting will continue until 14 March 2013. CITES COP16 will address a number of substantive issues on trade of endangered species, including: amendments to the Appendices of the Convention which lists a number of species listed as controlled species due to their risk of extinction. The COP was inaugurated by Her Excellency Yingluck Shinawatra the Prime Minister of Thailand.
This year also celebrates the 40th anniversary of the Convention and coincidently is the first COP of CITES Maldives has participated in. Maldives submitted the Instrument of accession to CITES on the 12 of December 2012 and will be an official party to the convention from 12 of March 2013.
CITES is a multilateral agreement between 178 States which aims to safeguard the conservation and sustainable exploitation of the planet's animal and plant populations. Signed in Washington in 1973, the Convention is due to celebrate its 40th anniversary this year in Bangkok. Besides being one of the 178 Parties, Switzerland plays a special role within CITES as the Depositary state and host to the CITES Secretariat. It also has a strong interest in seeing that the Convention is implemented properly and effectively, as the country that issues the most CITES certificates for its booming watchmaking industry and its luxury goods industry. According to how threatened with extinction they are, CITES species are grouped into three categories benefiting from different levels of protection. Depending on the category, the import and export of live specimens of plants or animals or parts thereof are either prohibited or subject to licensing.
The Conference of the Parties meets every three years and spends in excess of ten days discussing numerous applications from every country and continent. Among the 71 requests and over a hundred documents submitted this year, the issue of the African elephant and trade in its ivory features once again. Switzerland is concerned about the increase in cases of poaching and intends to commit itself to supporting countries of origin in their fight against this problem, but also to supporting the measures taken in consumer countries. Rhino poaching too is constantly on the rise. Rhinoceros horn is highly prized by consumers in certain Asian countries for its claimed anti-cancer properties. There too, effective measures should be taken to support countries of origin while educating those which are the source of demand. With regard to reptiles, and snakes in particular, a group led by Switzerland is examining the traceability and sustainability of the Asian snake trade. In parallel with the discussions that have taken place within CITES, Switzerland has set up a committee of experts responsible for proposing recommendations on the humane slaughter of reptiles.
