Product Description
Home Movies is about a family, but Home Movies is not a family show. Its got kids in it, but it is aimed squarely at adults. The series spotlights third grader Brendon Small, a young filmmaker who writes, acts, directs and "co-executive produces" his "groundbreaking early work" along with friends Melissa (age 8) and Jason (age 7). The show also features Coach McGuirk, a youth soccer coach who hates soccer and isnt all that crazy about youths.
The third season of this half-hour cult-hit comedy towers as one of the greatest seasons in the history of television;. It includes the nearly flawless "Shore Leave" (which won an award at some festival), the fan favorite "Guitarmageddon," as well as the episodes "Storm Warning" and "Renaissance," which have some really funny parts.
Season Three represents an already great show truly hitting its stride. If youre a fan of the show, then this season is a "must see." And if youve never seen Home Movies, this is a perfect place to start. Then work your way backwards.
Contains all 13 episodes of Season Three
Episode #301 "Shore Leave"
Episode #302 "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do"
Episode #303 "Bad Influence"
Episode #304 "Improving Your Life Through Improv"
Episode #305 "Fours Company"
Episode #306 "Renaissance"
Episode #307 "My Cheatin Heart"
Episode #308 "Guitarmaggedon"
Episode #309 "Storm Warning"
Episode #310 "Time To Pay The Price"
Episode #311 "Broken Dreams"
Episode #312 "Stowaway"
Episode #313 "Coffins And Cradles"
Plus these Special Features
*DECIDE YOUR DOOM INTERACTIVE GAME: "Revenge Of The Dorks"
*SOME HOME MOVIES FANS A Music Video
*A FEATURETTE FOR PEOPLE WHO DONT NECESSARILY LIKE HOME MOVIES By Jon Benjamin
*RADIO INTERVIEW with Jon Benjamin and Loren Bouchard
While Home Movies is unquestionably funny and eclectic, the show also has a sweet side, which is best summed up in the season closer, "Coffins and Cradles." That this warm and affectionate aspect never comes across as treacly is both a credit to the show's creators, and another reason why fans have taken the show to their hearts and helped bring it back from a premature demise in its first season. Said followers get an amusing nod in the set's supplemental features; the short featurette "Some Home Movies Fans" sets to music some photos of the fans greeting the creators at a convention, while actor/co-writer Jon Benjamin's "A Featurette for People Who Don't Necessarily Like Home Movies" should charm longtime aficionados with amusing testimony from the likes of David Cross and Todd Barry. Viewers can also have fun with the "Decide Your Own Doom Interactive Game," which allows them to participate in an adventure (of sorts) based on "Renaissance." Finally, there are commentaries by Small and co-creator Loren Bouchard on seven episodes, as well as a lengthy radio interview with Bouchard and Benjamin. Though there's enough in this set to charm the diehard admirer and the first-time visitor to the Home Movies mini-verse, another season (the series' last) followed. --Paul Gaita

Do I need to install lights?
Hi all, I'm planning to grow some leafy greens indoor in front of a large north-facing window, but am not sure if I need extra lights. I live in a high rise apartment building, with every single one of the windows facing north; no balcony. However, I live on the 32nd floor with no obstruction in front, and the window area is quite large (the area where I plan to plant has a 3 meter wide window). I have a light meter and had been checking lux levels for 2 weeks. On a lightly overcast day, the level is approximately 5000-6000 lux after 8:30am and gradually rises to 9000-10000 lux around 11:00am; and keep the same intensity till 2 pm then decrease to 6000 lux around 4 pm.
I'd also read about " Daily Light Integral (DLI)", according to the data that I collected over the short 2 weeks interval; my planting area should be around 4.5 mol.m2/day on a cloudy day, and around 6 mol.m2/day on a clear day. If I'm only planning to grow collards, mustard greens, cabbage and some Asian vegetables like pok choi and tatsoi, do you think I need to install some artificial lights to supplement the window light? Thanks.

I saw a video of most of the ride on Youtube. I'll edit this post when I find it.
EDIT: Found it. YouTube - ?TOWER of TERROR? ???????????????????????
The story is more complicated then the ones in the US/Paris.
US/Paris: 5 people board an elavator at a Halloween party at the Hollywood Tower Hotel. The tower gets struck by lightning and the 5 people get zapped to the Twilight Zone while a section of the building disappears.
Tokyo: Hotel Hightower is owned by the infamous Harrison Hightower. A man you goes around the world, steals sacred items, and displays them at his hotel. He recently stole an idol from an African tribe, even though they told him he would be cursed. After he puts out his cigarette with the idol, he boards an elavator. Shiriki Utundi (the idol) comes to life and zaps him and the elavator. It crashes and when the elavator is opened they find Shiriki Utundi, but Hightower has disappeared. Years later, the city starts giving tours to the abandoned hotel. It is on this tour you board the elavator and join Hightower.
Thanks, both of you.
I recently found this nice video:
YouTube - ?????????? ????
Well one reason it's so hard to find pix is that you're not allowed to take them once you leave the lobby. My husband got some shots on the sly, which are posted in my trip report, here: Day 8: First Day at Tokyo DisneySea
Tokyo Disney on 2 Weeks' Notice: A Photo-Packed Account of 17 Days in Japan! * All My Other Disney Trip Reports * Tweeting all things Disney @lurkyloo
The drop itself is extremely smooth, like being dunked in a milk shake. It's much smoother than its counterpart at California Adventure. The overall experience is much more impressive because of the backstory with Harrison Hightower and Shiriki Utundu.
the seatbelt is over the shoulder and around your waist at TDS
at the US parks it's just around your waist which allows you to raise up off the seat slightly during the drops
Thanks for all the great videos! I have actually never been on any Tower of Terror, I am not a fan of dropping. Though I would really like to push myself to ride this one next fall!
Bringing the Love since January 10, 2011We were sent over there with the message that only we would defend Disney quality.. We learnt quickly that the Japanese culture speaks to a level of quality that is hard to comprehend. They were all unbelievably skilled and willing to do the right thing.
Craig Russell -Walt Disney Imagineering
DD--I definitely get a little airtime at the Tokyo attraction even with the shoulder strap. You do know to take a deep breath and sit up very straight after you buckle? That gives you a little strap. An old magician's trick.

The drop at the Tower in TDS is basically the tamest of all the parks. I see no need for the over the shoulder strap- but I guess they have their safety restrictions. Drops don't bother me- but compared to DLP, WDW and DL the drop at TDS isn't as drastic as any of the others.
It may just be my opinion, but I don't see any real thrill to the drop- but love the themeing and attention to detail throughout the attraction itself and really should not be missed.

Plan DescriptionCheck out this unique garage plan. Its thoughtful design features a double tandem bay and an RV bay allowing you to protect your boat, cars and motorhome from the elements all in one place.

This bay has an 18x12 overhead door and is separated from the RV bay by a full bath and the staircase leading to the loft. The RV bay is outfitted with a 12x12 overhead door and offers a little storage room in the back left corner. Two service doors offer convenient access to the 2121 square foot garage and youll appreciate the 14 ceiling on the main level. Upstairs, the loft delivers 1402 square feet of usable space.

"Kirkus' review of The Mill River Recluse played an important role in encouraging readers to take a chance on a first novel by an unknown author."
— Darcie Chan, independent author of The Mill River Recluse, which sold more than 500,000 copies
Back in 2004, Leila Roy started Bookshelves of Doom as a simple reading log. Over the past 10 years, it has morphed and expanded into a website that covers stories in all forms—fact and fiction, print and film, video games and songs—but, at its heart, it is still best described by the tagline it launched with: "Book news, reviews, my life, and anything else I think is interesting."
Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre is a popular lady in the young adult realm. Lots of likable YA heroines read about her—mopes like Bella Swan tend to prefer Wuthering Heights—and most YA readers,* regardless of age have either read the novel or watched one of the many, many film adaptations.**
It's no surprise that she's so popular. After all, her story has a lot of the elements that we enjoy in teen fiction: mean girls, an unattainable-and-brooding love interest, an ...
With the surge in popularity of post-apocalyptic stories and the apparently never-ending popularity of vampires, it was only a matter of time before we'd get hit with a combination of the two.
Yes, that's right. Julie Kagawa's The Immortal Rules is set in a future United States, where the few humans who have survived the plague now have to contend with the rise of the vampires—as well as creatures who are even more bloodthirsty. Our heroine is Allie, a vampire-hating ...
At 14, Ismae Rienne is already badass. She just doesn't know it yet.
But how could she? She's grown up knowing that her mother didn't want her—the scarring on her body proves that her mother took poison in an attempt to abort her—and abused by her father. She's just been sold into a bad marriage to a bad man. She has no real options and no real future.
Read Bookshelves of Doom on the great SF book for teens, 'Obsidian ...
Last year, I picked up Cate Tiernan's Immortal Beloved and I really, really enjoyed it. Which surprised me.
After all, with its tiny, self-loathing—and, of course, unbeknownst to her, secretly important and powerful—heroine and its muscle-bound, brooding male lead, it just looked like yet another entrant into the exhausting gladiatorial combat that the post-Twilight paranormal romance market has become. The characters even spell magic with a "k." Which is way too far over the New-Age-shop-in-a-college-town line for me ...
The following won't mean anything to some of you, but it will mean everything to others: "Wherever you go, there you are."
Yes, that's right. Pete Hautman's The Obsidian Blade quotes Buckaroo Banzai*. And, Buckaroo fans, I'm happy to say: The Obsidian Blade is just as enjoyably weird.
Read Bookshelves of Doom on the new girl-spy book 'Ruby Redfort.'
For the rest of you, hang in there. I'll back up. First of all, you're all aware of how ...
Lauren Child's works are aimed a bit younger than my usual fare, but her picture books are so quirkily adorable and hilarious that I find them irresistible*, and her chapter books about Clarice Bean have the same sort of feel. They're childlike without being childish, offbeat and imaginative while still feeling grounded in reality, and just as enjoyable for adult readers as young ones.
Read the last Bookshelves of Doom on Ellen Potter's 'The Humming Room.'
Now, like ...
I love Frances Hodgson Burnett's The Secret Garden. I love everything about it…
I love prickly Mary Lennox (the original Angry Young Girl), I love exploring the forgotten rooms of Misselthwaite Manor, I love the miniature elephants and the Yorkshire moors, Dickon and his animals, the robin and Ben Weatherstaff, Martha and the skipping rope, Martha's mother, all the food, the box of gardening supplies, and I even love Colin. I reread it almost every year.
Read the last Bookshelves ...
I've been looking forward to Josh Berk's Guy Langman: Crime Scene Procrastinator for months. Not because I'm dying to read it. I already have. It's because I've been dying for everyone else to read it. I read an advanced copy of it last October while my car was getting worked on, and I laughed so much and so hard that the receptionist gave me The Eye.
Read more excellent new books for teens in March.
I just reread it, and ...

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

'Common Paths,' a new book by Patty Bultman
By Patty Bultman
It all begins in the first book of the Peace House series, Common Threads. A mysterious box. Hidden secrets. Painful pasts. In a small town, in the heart of the Bible belt, things are not as they seem. Judging by outward appearances, Ruthie, Abigail and Mimsey are nothing alike. But when the trio stumbles upon a box of money and letters, they unite, determined to find the owner. As the women investigate, they begin to see the Common Threads tying them together- hope, faith, and the incredible grace of their Savior. Common Threads is the first book I authored.

Sober stylings Greys and other muted colours are the order of the day for Canali's autumn-winter collection. The toned-down palette may ostensibly appear like a conservative or even old-fashioned move but dialing down the theatrics allows Canali's fantastic tailoring to come to the fore. We love the assertive look of field jacket (HK$11,000), trousers (HK$7,500), shirt (HK$3,000), tie (HK$2,000) and shoes (all left; HK$6,000). We're also big fans of the evening look, with jacket (HK$14,000), trousers (HK$5,500), waistcoat (HK$3,700), shirt (HK$2,400), tie (HK$2,000), shoes (HK$6,000) and handkerchief (all far left; HK$800). Canali is available at IFC Mall, Central, tel: 2118 5718.

Dave Constantino has been competing in marathons for a decade, and when it came down to recalling the hottest ones he has run, the Cumberland resident didn't hesitate to bring up the 26.2-mile adventure he encountered on Monday at the Boston Marathon.
"That was probably the hottest marathon I have ever done out of the 10 years I have been competing," Constantino said on Tuesday morning while he was "recuperating" at Scarborough Beach. "That was unbelievable. It was a tough one. It was a tough one for everybody."
BOSTON — Hilary Dionne, a former cross-country and track & field standout from Cumberland High School, finished 15th among women at the Boston Marathon Monday, crossing the finish line in 2:51.56. Her time was third-best among American winners. Dionne, who now works in Boston, graduated from Cumberland in 2003.
The 26-year-old Dionne averaged six minutes, 19 seconds during the first 6.2 miles of the race before shaving off five seconds over the next three-plus miles of the grueling 26.2-mile test of endurance and stamina. She ended up placing 256th overall and 11th in her age group (18-39).
PAWTUCKET — Minutes after Cumberland High's respectable but not outstanding 5-3 triumph over St. Raphael Academy on Monday afternoon, Clippers' skipper Paul Murphy reacted to the pure facts – that the last four hitters in his lineup had assembled a collective 4-for-11 outing, good for a .364 average, four RBI and a run scored.
Seeking clarification as to which New York Yankees' minor-league port of call Tim Norton would dock at this season, we revved up the search feature on MiLB.com's home page, fingers crossed that a simple mouse click would yield the desired answer.
Instead, we were left with more questions with a side order of curiosity.
LINCOLN — This was an unlucky Friday the 13th in more ways than one.
Only one of the half dozen local fighters on Classic Entertainment & Sports' "Never Surrender" card at the Twin River Event Center -- Keith Jeffrey from Tri-Force MMA in Pawtucket -- was able to produce a victory in a show that saw seven of the night's 10 fights won by Massachusetts fighters.
Maria Chevalier loves to run. She's been doing it for nearly two-thirds of her life, starting with her years as a cross country and track standout in the early '90s at Clear Creek High School in Idaho Springs, Col., and she's taken part in everything from a simple 5K to a grueling 50-mile trail run.
But when it comes to the one race she enjoys running the most, the nine-year Cumberland resident won't hesitate to give you an answer.
LINCOLN — When fans last saw Todd Chattelle at the Twin River Event Center, it was last Nov. 18 and the Pawtucket native was being triumphantly carried from the octagon to the locker rooms on the shoulders of a few of his friends.
Chattelle has just recorded the biggest triumph of his 5½-year career with his first-ever submission on an unexpected guillotine chokeout of Brett Oteri of Dedham, Mass. 3:18 into their fight for the inaugural CES Mixed Martial Arts middleweight championship.
WOONSOCKET — On Tuesday, host Cumberland High pounded out 17 hits, including nine for extra bases, en route to a 14-0 "mercy rule" pasting of Smithfield High.
Skipper Paul Murphy's crew didn't supply him and assistant Dale O'Dell with the same kind of offensive barrage 48 hours later at Mount St. Charles, but it did register eight hits to post a second consecutive "mercy rule" triumph over the Mounties, this time an 11-0 verdict on Thursday.
CUMBERLAND — The softball seasons have passed and the names have come and gone, but one thing you could always count on year after year any time Lincoln and Cumberland played each other was a spirited, competitive duel -- a showdown that was usually going to be decided by one or two runs.
That's what the small gathering of fans that braved the chilly weather at Wednesday afternoon's Division I-North affair at Tucker Field expected from the two unbeaten rivals, but what they got was a shocking surprise.
PAWTUCKET — It's hard to win when you make four errors.
Just ask Shea High head coach Dino Campopiano, whose club's mistake-prone ways allowed Wheeler School to escape Max Read Field with a 5-1 Division II-Central victory on Wednesday afternoon.
Still, fair is fair. John Snider, the Warriors' senior righty from Cumberland, proved to be stellar on the hill, yielding only five hits and three walks while fanning a whopping dozen (though he did toss a trio of wild pitches). He also helped himself with the bat, going 2-for-3 with a triple and two runs scored.

I applied through college or university. The process took 4+ weeks – interviewed at NCR in November 2014.Interview Details
I applied for this position through my school's career fair. I got contact 2-3 weeks later for a brief phone interview going over the achievements on my resume and scheduling an in person interview 2 weeks later. Now I must say that being in grad school and having had 2 years of work experience made things easy on the interview but below is more details.
The process lasted about 3 hours which according to my recruiter depending on how well I would perform during each phase. The first one, I was given a paper test. The different topics were C#, object oriented, C/C++ & memory management, Sql concepts, Javascript, iOS and Android. The test is impossible to finish in an hour so don't waste time on the concept you do not know. I believe it is a pretty generic test except maybe for the last 2 parts since my position is more focussed on mobile developement.
Afterward I had an in person interview with one of the team lead where I was given 2 programming problems to solve on a white board. The last hour another developer questioned me specifically about Android.
At the end I got to talk to the director for a few minutes.Interview Questions

Submitted resume through LinkedIn. I was called by an HR rep a week later for an on site interview. The first interview consisted of two 1-on-1 interviews followed by a panel interview by the team I would be working with. At the end of the day, I had to do an impromptu presentation using the materials I would be using to train others on the job. Everyone was very straight forward about the job requirements; travel, etc. but everyone seemed like great people and I was happy to be considered for the position.
The next day I was called by the hiring manager who asked me to come back for another presentation. Again, everyone seemed great and I was very grateful for being considered.
After the second presentation I received a call from the HR rep telling me they were going to make me an offer. It was during the holidays, so it took a week or so for the offer to come through. Once it did, I accepted.Interview Questions

I found the hiring process to be professional and thorough. From the moment of initial contact my recruiter and scheduling support rep were detailed and very informative. They even went so far as to reschedule my interview for a latter date (suicide right), due to uncontrollable circumstances. The interview process was lenghty 3.5-4 hours, but if you do your homewoork and research and know your craft it's not difficult to do well. Again, I reitierate knowing your craft...... tthe process will weed you right out the door if your shooting from the hip. Have the applicable experience and definitely be able convey it in what ever scenario they have prepared for you to show them. And trust me they are prepared!!! Over all, this one of my best experiences with the interviewing process with a company of any stature.

As any proprietor will tell you, there is a world of difference between a vintage shop and a thrift store. The former is curated and choosy, a representation of a tastemaker's vision. The latter is frequently a junkatorium that accepts whatever people happen to drop off. Certainly many a brilliant find has its origins on the miscellaneous shelf, but San Francisco's best vintage shops are a rare breed, each worthy of attention for its unique wares. Be it vintage Levi's or hard-to-source Burberry, Painted Bird in the Mission is the first choice for a statement garment that hits the nail of good taste square on the head. There are some fun wacky finds, but this label-heavy, unisex boutique's ethos of keeping San Franciscans looking effortlessly cool is just about perfect. The return of Victoriana and 1920s Flapper dresses to the scene has been a boon for Decades of Fashion, home to professional stylists whose in-depth knowledge spans a full century, from the 1880s to the 1980s. The space is so full of period finds that it's almost more costume shop than vintage store, with heavy museum tendencies. In a high-ceilinged former bank in the Haight, Decades of Fashion is a marvel to browse, from stunning beaded gowns that your grandmother would have received as a birthday present to immaculate cases of Art Deco jewelry. Another option for opening a vintage store is to simply accumulate a lifetime's worth of ephemera, and then find a retail space to house it all in. That's the idea behind the Tenderloin's Handsome Oxford, a small men's shop that's heavy on U.S.-made retro wear. Women can still find pieces to fit any nationalistic outfit, and many of the wares are priced competitively enough to almost count as a thrift store, but with an attention to detail that stands alone. Then there are consignment stores like Carousel Consignment SF, which trades in the gently used goods from estate sales and beyond. This often-overlooked species of vintage store stocks all manner of furnishings, housewares and miscellany, and is often a fine place to pick up accessories, many of them handmade locally. You might swing through Carousel one day to find the perfect felt hat, then emerge another with a fully-intact set of vintage curlers. That's the greatness of vintage shopping: there's always something fantastic to discover.Read More

She also made a conscious choice to evoke the charm and style of her mother's generation by populating her boutique with an array of vintage and modern, yet timeless, consignment apparel. Retro décor, fresh flowers, and floral patterns surround the racks of gently used clothing, creating a feminine ambiance where shoppers can search for the trappings of their own mothers' eras.

Have this pretty orchid for many years. I call it my 'Mothers Day Orchid.' It has always bloomed on Mothers Day. This year it opened its buds earlier but I have two other sheaths ready to go. I'm sure they are waiting to surprise me.
Got badly sunburned when I first moved to Florida and I lost a few leaves and bulbs but it still making flowers. Lovely gift!
Beautiful, fragrance.

I don't get it, why use then when you can just open Firefox or Safari and browse to the actual website? I can see it's appeal on mobile platforms, it'd look killer on iOS but on OS X it's just a waste of money.
Criticism aside it looks great, and it's aesthetically pleasing, looks like it's made more for iOS rather than OS X, but nice job anyway.

On the desktop, some people prefer apps as opposed to a tab in a sea of other tab in the browser (although with FF and Chrome you can pin tabs which helps). Here's some more reasons why you would use MyFace:
- Badge notifications (whenever you get something message, notification, or request)
- Cleans up the Facebook site (removes a lot of junk)
- No "chrome" (as in window chrome, not the browser)

Look, the rules of the game were made for a reason. The referees aren't supposed to be allowed to play favorites or hold a grudge. But that is exactly what is happening and everyone seems to be okay with this. They have a job to do and they failed to do it, period. When I fail to do my job, I get reprimanded or fired. When the NHL fails to do it's job, everyone just looks the other way. It's pathetic. Goal scoring is worse than the days before the 2005 lockout. Think about that for a second. In a league with Sidney Crosby, Patrick Kane, Steven Stamkos, and John Tavares we are worse off than we were before. That's because the officials are not doing their damn job.
I really don't get the talk about trading for Jordan Staal. I don't think he has a fit on this team except for 3rd line center. Being stuck on that spot is exactly why he wanted to leave. But the bigger issues is that 6 mil salary cap and something like 8 years left on that contract. Hell no. Not worth it at all.
He already has game changers. The problem is they haven't been changing the game much lately. This team really could use a gritty veteran to be a voice ala Gary Roberts or Billy G.
You guys mentioned Bortuzzo by name again. Suck it.
@Craig Ross There you go again trying to leave your comment at the top of the post now that every one else has moved on to the other posts. You realize that means hardly anyone read it, right? Is this the internet version of dropping the mic in your eyes? Lazy.
That wasn't the best angle of the Crosby non-trip. They had another angle from the top of the glass looking down. Crosby didn't touch the guy, it was a 9.0 on the splash meter. But, the refs got the call right and for that, I salute them.
These top 5, 10, 100 whatever lists, no matter what subject, are always completely useless. There isn't a single person to be found to that agrees with the list and all they do is create controversy. They are completely opinionated with no hard data to back anything up. Without hard data, you just can't slot anything to a particular spot. Now let me make my own list. The top 1 greatest NFL football franchise in the modern area... Pittsburgh Steelers. 8 Super Bowl trips, 6 championships. You might hate it, but you know the numbers don't lie.
@Bing_87 They know Lindback sucks, right? Actually, it makes sense. The rest of the team does too so he fits right in.
@ChristopherOhhh Remember this? That is the optimism I'm talking about.
@ChristopherOhhh Part of me likes the comment because it is telling people to lower their standards. They expect and demand a Stanley Cup which is fucking absurd. Before the last Cup in 2009, everyone was about having hope and being optimistic. Since then it is about getting what they feel they are entitled to. Striking similarities to Obama's presidency. LOL I've given up on Obama, but never my Pens.
@Bing_87 @PITTinNC @Craig Ross Expecting any player, even a superstar, to produce big every game isn't realistic. Even Lemieux and Gretzky got shut out sometimes during their hey days. Consider this, OV makes over 9mil a season and he consistently has a negative +/-. Eric Staal makes over 8mil, and well the Canes suck. Shea Weber makes 8mil, is he really the BEST defenseman in the league right now?
I think we are getting our money's worth in Crosby, Malkin, and Letang. But 3 guys does not make a team.
@Pengu1nsFan87 Cool story, bro.
@Hibbits Well Bylsma had a problem winning playoff series. If Johnston has a problem winning these games but not the playoff series, I'll take it. But we won't know how that pans out until April. Hold on to your sack until then.
In a 5-0 blowout, this non-goal can't be pointed at as the game changer. So what if the game would have been 2-1 at that point. The players should have still been able to step up and fight back from 2-0. Instead they appeared to get worse. This was just a bad game all around for the entire team. But I'm not going to go all Craig Ross and cry about how terrible the team is at all times of the year. There are some issues, but every team should be so lucky to have the issues we have right now. Just ask Edmonton or Buffalo.
Epic selfie. It perfectly defines the statement "He'll be alright, he's a hockey player." While I agree that Arcobello isn't that answer for that line, he played decent. He appears to be stepping up his game while playing with elite players.
Thank God.
@Craig Ross Fucking Crosby. Stupid media asks him a question and he actually answers it. What's next? Kid asking for an autograph and he actually gives him one?!
@Craig Ross Ahh, taking the insult and owning it, but not really. I'm sure you thought your wit won the day on this one, didn't you?
I've been reading this blog a long time. Never once do I recall Staff calling themselves "professional". So Madden, eat a dick on that. Then he attempts to get personal by saying they play hockey poorly. So am I to believe Mr. Double X Fatass is actually GOOD at playing hockey? I mean, that's assuming they have a jersey that will fit over that massive mound of pudding of his.
@Mr. Confidence I don't understand them either but that is honestly by choice. I am sure I am capable of learning them, but I feel it just takes some of the randomness and unknowns out of the game. That is fun to me. Any game, any team, anything could happen. I want to keep it that way.
Numbers, graphs, charts, number, numbers.... Letang good. Got it.
I didn't need any of your new fangled math to tell me the Pens are going to make the playoffs!
@tramp_stamp For that matter, the 2009 Pens were 2 places out of a playoff spot in mid-February and I hear they did okay.
After a loss like this and our recent record, I feel another players-only meeting coming on. Unfortunately, they have done little good in the past in turning things around. The Pens are in trouble right now. The adversity could be good for them in the long run, or it could eat their souls. I just don't know what to say at this point. Normally the coach would be the goat, but this same kind of stuff happened under Bylsma. So that isn't it.
@slimjim34 I feel like Kunitz might do well with some time on Malkin's wing when he comes back. Who knows.
You guys are just going to hit a brick wall with that raging boner you have for Jagr. Trust me, running in to a wall with a boner is bad. Don't ask. He isn't what the team needs and consider what we might have to give up to get him as a rental. For as much nostalgia as you guys have for Jagr, he has none for Pittsburgh. If he did, he would have taken Shero's offer years ago. I respect him for his time with the Pens and his overall career, but this trade isn't going to happen.
Look at that lineup. And you guys think it is bad now.
I'm not convinced that Jagr is the answer. This is a whole lot of nostalgia talking to you guys. In another post you made a comparison to getting Jagr now as when we got Billy G in 2009. Other than age, I see no comparisons here. Guerin was a true leader. Jagr is well... similar it Ovechkin when it comes to leadership.
(Posted this so Craig doesn't get his way by leaving his post at the top of the comments as he always does. Lazy.)
You make it sound like eating paper is bad. What gives?
Good lord, NO! Not because he is Mike Richards. It's because those statistics above are not so lopsided that it makes sense to take on that salary. Really, it seems like Sutter is better is most regards besides the production you get for the cost. Sutter is having a down year, yes. But it isn't so bad that we need to destroy our salary cap situation with Richards.
I watched most of the ASG weekend with my son, we enjoyed it. The skills competition is the most entertaining part. The game itself could be more if some of the players loosen up. Seriously, why the hell did they not do a flying V formation? I mean, how epic would that be?
MAF let in a bunch of goals... in the All Star game. Umm yeah. There were 29 goals scored total so the other 5 all-star goalies and the 12 defensemen have some accountability to that as well. Unless of course you realize the game doesn't count for shit. MAF's reply was great. I hope he dropped the mic and walked away afterwards.
Sid and Geno missing the ASG didn't make me enjoy the skills competition any less last night. Brian Elliot taking selfies during the shootout style competition stole the show anyway.
@jammonstrald Don Cherry is an obnoxious blowhard that seems to think that his opinion is the only one that ever matters. I honestly don't know how Canadians can tolerate his ranting. Fuck that guy. If a player can pull that move off and they need that goal, they should do it. Anything within the rules to win.
@ttutko I guess the NHL figured out how to make players and teams want to go to the ASG. If you miss the ASG, you have to also miss at least 1 regular season game. So was it by design to get Sid and Geno more rest by pulling Geno for 1 game before the ASG and Sid for 1 game after? I'm getting my tin foil hat for this!
@Who Really Cares Noobs are fine. It's some of the old turds we would like to get rid of. LOL
His numbers aren't bad for being on a shit team like the Oilers. (Hey, where have I heard that before?) Clearly he is cheap so we can afford him. The worst that could happen is that we waive him ourselves. Good move by the GM.
Bob Errey still proving that he has that grit.
I'm on the fence about the Pens retaliating for the hit on Downie. It's a dirty hit, no doubt about it. The league will get him and I think the team knew it hence no retaliation. But there is a side of me that says someone should have taken Suter to the woodshed. In the end the win is the most important thing and they got that. Solid performance all around. My only complaint was the first goal against us where 4 Pens were looking at the puck carrier and let 3 Wild players stand in front of MAF. Can't put that on MAF at all.
You know why I hate the Wild? Those god damn jerseys of theirs. Green and red? Could they seriously had made them any uglier? Green OR Red, pick one. Even New Jersey managed to figure that one out.
@Norojo You are really overreacting. The mumps were contracted by players around the league, not just the Pens. Who said Maata's surgery was "botched"? And broken bones due to impact with 90+mph pucks is not a "conditioning issue". But tell you what tough guy, we will line you up in front of some pedestrian 60mph shots and you can show us how well you are conditioned.
Teams looking to make a playoff run will want Paul Martin, right? What the hell are we? Consider it a trade with ourselves. Like playing with ourselves but more productive and not nearly as much fun. Screw this crap about getting something for him. What are we going to get, a 6th round pick because he is a rental. Screw that, ride him out to the end of the season. We need him now.
Guys, gotta let go of the Jagr thing. It's not gonna happen.
@Craig Ross Trade Craig Adams for a bag of jock itch.
@Craig Ross Come back with this comment when the stars aren't contributing anything and Craig Adams actually gets a goal.
Well Craig Ross got several good looks at the net but couldn't seal the deal. Lazy. Meanwhile our stars do what stars do and won the game.

Momentum is building around cloud scenarios applied to health and wellbeing. To offer clearer understanding of the possibilities offered by the cloud and to gain insight into the experiences of early adopters, we are hosting the Health Users Group European Summit in Brussels. It will take place on Monday and Tuesday, 29 and 30 November, and will bring together over 60 health customers and partners from 19 countries.
Governments, health ministries, health providers – public and private alike – and pharmaceutical companies have started to use cloud computing to address a variety of business and medical challenges. We are getting a glimpse of the benefits for physicians as knowledge workers.
The infusion of intelligence and connectivity into a wide range of health devices, complemented by Internet-scale services, is creating a new paradigm for computing. As a result, a new paradigm for health and wellbeing is emerging. Such new ways of managing information translates into an improved experience for patients, leading to better outcomes, more control, more convenience, better and broader service, and ultimately better value for money.
The uptake of cloud computing in a few health provider organisations in Europe has shown impressive gains in terms of cost efficiency. The challenge and the opportunity for cloud computing is to match its ability to deliver solid cost reduction while improving the quality of care and broadening access to health and wellbeing services.
On the occasion of the Microsoft Health Users Group Summit we will launch a Cloud in Health and Wellbeing white paper. Stay tuned for the proceedings of the debate and for interviews to get first-hand perspectives from early European innovators…We will share videos and testimonials soon.
