TEAMS: Los Angeles Kings, Nashville Predators
As expected, it was a goaltending dual between arguably the best two netminders of the National Hockey League -- Jonathan Quick and Pekka Rinne. Thursday night, Quick was able to get the best of the Nashville Predators, stopping thirty-four shots, while Rinne made twenty-nine saves in his losing effort. Lack of offense has given the Predators yet another loss this season. The Predators fell to the visiting Los Angeles Kings, 2-1, in a shootout.
The Predators had an excellent chance to score on the power play in overtime with Alec Martinez going to the box at 1:29. Too much cuteness and not enough shooting led to a successful penalty kill for the Kings and thus forced the game to play in the shootout.
Anze Kopitar netted the game-winner in the third round of the shootout after Craig Smith, Filip Forsberg and Matt Cullen failed to convert. Nashville's Matt Cullen and Los Angeles' Slava Voynov scored the lone goals for their respective teams in the first period.
With the Preds' loss, they move to 3-3-1, while the Kings improve to 5-3-0.
Four Thoughts
1. Power Play was brutal: Associate coach Phil Housley will have some work to do before hitting the road to play Saturday in Montreal. The power play Thursday night was not good, mainly due to the extreme pressure LA's penalty killers put on the puck carrier. Adjustments with the power play setup were necessary, but they were not made, evidently. To finish the night, Nashville went 0-for-4, totaling a mere five shots.
2. Stalberg not sharp: Since being taken off injured reserve for a shoulder injury, Viktor Stalberg has not looked sharp on the ice. His skating abilities have taken a step back, while his focus and attentiveness has been unapparent. When he's on the ice, he's almost unnoticeable, unless he makes a mistake. Watching Saturday and Thursday night's games, Stalberg has looked mediocre. Head coach Barry Trotz may need to send him a wakeup call by scratching him on 'Hockey Night in Canada' Saturday.
3. Quick's helmet: Twice during the Predators' overtime power-play, Jonathan Quick's helmet popped off and killed the momentum for the man advantage. The first time, his defenseman accidentally knocked it off -- no big deal. The second time, a puck glazed the lower left strap of his helmet and snapped it off. I'm not saying Quick took the helmet off himself, by any means, but rather his helmet is quite delicate and needed to be looked at following the game.
Nonetheless, with the helmet coming off twice, the flow to get the power-play setup was destroyed, the reason they couldn't score the game-winner in OT.
4. Best game thus far? No: Pekka Rinne said after the game this was the best game the Predators have played this season. I will respectfully disagree only because the lack of offense is still apparent. The defense, penalty-killers and goaltending played an excellent game, but there were obvious frustrations by the players due to lack of communication. Colin Wilson slammed his stick on the ice after his linemate dumped the puck in for a line change while he was open for a pass cutting into the offensive zone.
There is a lot of work to be done with this squad and it was definitely not the best game this season.

Book Review The Comfort of Strangers,by Ian McEwanBook Review: The Comfort of Strangers, by Ian McEwanPremise from Goodreads.com:As their holiday unfolds, Colin and Maria are locked into their own intimacy. They groom themselves meticulously, as though someone is waiting for them who cares deeply about how they appear. When they meet a man with a disturbing story to tell, they become drawn into a fantasy of violence and obsession.It's a haunting but intriguingly written book.The Comfort of Strangers is probably the first book by Ian McEwan, aka 'Ian Macabre', which I have actually finished reading and enjoyed. I never finish The Cement Garden, by the same author,therefore I'm pleasantly surprised to find The Comfort of Strangers so appealing.The story is very simple: a pair of well-to-do, fine looking, highly educated couple went to an unnamed, tourist-crowded city (strongly hinted at as Venice), they hanged out in their hotel, had many comfortable but not passionate sex, visited a few tou
alice nine fanfic Shadowplay chapter 4Warning: yaoi=guy loves another guy, don't like don't readShadowplay Part 4First they opened the windows in the living room, kitchen and a few other rooms on the ground floor in order to let fresh air into the house, and then they had to take time reconnecting the electricity and water supply, making sure those were in working order before sundown. They would try to reconnect the phone tomorrow—if they had the time to get around to it.Once the two young men get the power up and water running, the rest of the day was mostly taken up by dragging the dusters off the furniture. They also did their best to sweep the floor of the living room, kitchen, bathroom and parts of the hallway, to make sure they would have a more tolerable living condition in the next one or so week.By the time they got the ground floor done, the sun was already setting, but they still had yet to work their way to the second floor."I feels like I have already done a whole year wort
Shadow of a DoubtIn time, I grew used to the darkness. After lying awake for hours on end, night after night, it merely became another thing that I learned to live with.I have tried-- and failed-- several methods to put myself to sleep. Reading, watching dull late night shows, and cleaning did nothing to help my insomnia. I took sleeping pills at one point, but they always left me comatose, weak and sluggish, even when I cut the regular dosage in half. I wanted to sleep; I did not want to pass out.One night, I got out of bed and began driving around my town until I lost interest and headed home. Eventually, I started frequenting the empty highways and back roads, trying to familiarize myself with the dark environment. The area was plain and unassuming during the day, but after the sun went down, it felt like another world.At first, driving through the silent, empty darkness made me feel like I was a stranger who was not welcome, a trespasser who didn't belong there. People with more active ima

Complete darkness surrounded him as the moon disappeared behind the layers of clouds from the night sky, he had nothing but his flashlight to lighten his way. There was no sound expected his heaving breath and the small crushing noise of his feet stepping on tiny branches and half dried grass underfoot.He was wandering in the middle of the night all because of a stupid bet, his friends had betted on him to chicken out of a challenge to go into the infamous Haunted House in the neighborhood. The thought of losing face in front of his peers was humiliating, he had to prove them wrong.So off he went to the Haunted House, going through this creepy woods, with nothing but a weak flashlight to guide his steps through the uneven, muddy path uphill.

She liked to whisper next to your ears, breathing down your neck while she talked. This soft, smooth, emotionless voice of her ordered and threatened, speaking soft hateful words to you. Her haunting voice…Darkness had fallen upon me, everywhere I looked I could only see shadows moving all around me. There were some candles, made of black wax, burning at the corners of the dark room but I still could hardly see anything clearly. I felt so cold.

The movements gave this dark room unsettling twist of energy, almost like the place was slowly coming alive.It was the fresh kill this room had just witnessed made it come to life.Unseen eyes seemed to fix intensively upon the broken form of the poor sacrifice, while the wooden stuff of the floor drank in every drop of the cooling thick blood, everything within the room was very still.The room held its breath, waiting.Waiting for bigger, more interesting victims.Waiting for the sav

Book Review: The Passage, by Justin CroninBook Review: The Passage, by Justin CroninPremise from Goodreads.com: An epic and gripping tale of catastrophe and survival, The Passage is the story of Amy—abandoned by her mother at the age of six, pursued and then imprisoned by the shadowy figures behind a government experiment of apocalyptic proportions. But Special Agent Brad Wolgast, the lawman sent to track her down, is disarmed by the curiously quiet girl and risks everything to save her.

Book Review: Osama Game by Nobuaki KanazawaBook Review: Osama Game, by Nobuaki Kanazawa Blurb from Goodreads.com: A high school class, containing 32 students, all receive a strange text message on their cell phones one night. It welcomes them to the "Ousama Game," in which they are given specific tasks to carry out in a 24 hour period.No one takes it very seriously at first, as the tasks are trivial things like having one student kiss another. Soon, the tasks escalate beyond what the kids are willing to do, and they learn that the cost of failure is death. Will they be able to find a way out of the Ousama Game before more people die, and the living lose their integrity and humanity through their participation in the increasingly horrible daily tasks?Note: Osama Game can be roughly translated as The King Game.to me, Osama Game is one of those 'I'm very disappointed/not lives up to the hype/story ruined by melodramatic plots and a complete WTF ending' books.And guess what?

One day, I'm getting schooled in swordplay by the guy who broke my heart—the drop-dead gorgeous Logan who slays me every time. Then, an invisible archer in the Library of Antiquities decides to use me for target practice. And now, I find out that someone at the academy is really a Reaper bad guy who wants me dead. I'm afraid if I don't learn how to live by the sword—with Logan's help—I just might die by the sword...This book pisses me off way too much.

The Dreamer Left ForgottenHe sat there... all night long, savoring one last cigarette. he smelt just like tobacco and broken dreams, stood there motionless, like a statue of a broken angel. Misery felt like home, holding him tightly. He didn't care, not at all, didn't mind all the eyes shooting bullets at him with disgrace, as one of the lost ones. He was just another kid with a big dream, an outcast. His mind was his escape, his imagination was his world build up against all the foolish warriors which darkened his vision, he wasn't a bad man behind his rage and broken heart. But still, he was one of the strong ones, a dreamer of his own, a prophet of his own destiny, a fighter in his own war, the war in his mind and heart.But all the angels are beautifully broken with sewed hearts because they fell from Heaven, dirty faces, but clean hands, rage on the outside, but compassion in the shell.The night was his comrade. the silence of the city after all the harm was done, the calm before the storm.

Content Police Facing Insurmountable Odds
The number of instances of pirated content online reached 14 billion in 2012, up from 5.4 billion in 2009, the Wall Street Journal reported today (Monday), citing figures from antipiracy and security firm Irdeto. While each of the major media companies employs a staff of security specialists to monitor the Internet and dispatch take-down notices to offenders, It's like whack-a-mile, NBCUniversal content-security manager Andrew Skinner told the Journal. You knock off one and there are 50 more behind it. A reporter for the newspaper sat in as NBCUniversal's content cops monitored the Web following Thursday night's episode of Suits on USA Network, which is owned by NBCUniversal. Within two hours after the broadcast, it was available on nearly a thousand websites around the world with translations as varied as Bulgarian and Chinese. And while the content cops are able to use so-called crawlers to detect instances of pirate videos, they are simply outgunned when it comes to tracking their source. Many pirate sites employ their own security in the form of captchas, which require users to copy words or numbers on a distorted image in order to enter them, something crawlers are unable to do.

Hey DracoBlade,
I think your comment just made my day. Love it when people discover Escaflowne! It's been a favourite ever since I first got into anime. It's animation has really stayed beautiful and I love the plot. Looking forward to seeing how you feel about the rest of the show.
Hi DracoBlade,
Thanks for dropping by and thanks also for the generous comment. That's highly encouraging. Hope you're enjoying your time here at AP and AUKN (if you happen to frequent that place as well). And see you around.
If you do end up watching Escaflowne, by the way, (I just noticed you put it on your wtw list), drop by again and tell me what you think of it. It's one of my favourite shows, so I always like a discussion about it. :)

Real Name
Glen Jacobs
Date of Birth
April 26, 1967
Place of Birth
While her character and routine have not exactly caught fire with the audience yet, WWE is said to be dedicated to giving Emma a legitimate chance at becoming a star in the divas division. Management is expected to continue giving her television time on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown for the time being.
March 10, 2014
While the company recently informed the developmental wrestlers that it will be harder to get called up to the main roster, that change does not appear to be affecting Mojo Rawley and WWE's desire to fast track him to Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. The belief is that he is the WWE NXT star that will some day be the headliner for the entire company.
March 10, 2014
"I don't know. You never really know what they're thinking. The original plan was to do three weeks of NXT and then go to Smackdown but then we got the email that basically what it said was you guys are great but we have a lot of Davey's and Eddie's right now. So we'd probably just put you in developmental to start out and we wouldn't do that when you've already been around the world making a living so you're free to pursue other interests. I thought at least they're being honest because they could have been yeah, you're in developmental and it's going to be great. Then you're down there for three years. I thought it was really respectful of them. Obviously it worked out for them and it worked out for us. We're both happy. It didn't really surprise me. I'm thankful for it." - Davey Richards discusses being rejected by the developmental program in WWE
March 10, 2014
In a rather interesting development, it has now been announced that CM Punk will be making his return to television next week. Unfortunately for WWE fans, however, it will not be done on Monday Night Raw or Smackdown. The former world heavyweight champion will be making another appearance on the Talking Dead, his first time in public since walking out on Vince McMahon.
March 9, 2014
On Tuesday, Big E Langston and Jack Swagger worked a match at the Smackdown taping. However, WWE opted to remove that from the broadcast on Friday night. Some are saying that the match came off horribly, while others are saying that management might simply be saving that for Monday Night Raw since it has a bigger audience.
March 9, 2014
Since he has not been utilized on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown in about a month now, there are speculations that there might be some backstage heat on R Truth. That is not the case. Management simply does not have a story line for him to work with. Plus, his partner Xavier Woods has been utilized on WWE NXT more frequently these past few weeks.
March 9, 2014
Since management was disappointed at the crowd reaction that was received during the match between Darren Young and Titus ONeil at Elimination Chamber 2014, the former Prime Time Players are being scaled back a bit, and their respective pushes are being placed on hold. Their feud has not being featured on Monday Night Raw or Smackdown since the pay per view.
March 9, 2014
A video of the Shield Summit, where Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins got together in the middle of the ring during Smackdown to talk through their issues heading into Wrestlemania 30.
March 9, 2014
One of the reasons why WWE has been utilizing the two of them together on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown lately is because management is trying to build up a potential main event match between Batista and Daniel Bryan at Summerslam 2014. Batista is expected to be the focal point of the show since his movie comes out in August.
March 8, 2014
Even though there is uncertainty about the return of Naomi Knight, WWE does not feel the pressing need to put together a new program for AJ Lee at Wrestlemania 30. She has been working random matches on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown, with Cameron being the closest thing that the Divas Champion has to a feud at the moment.
March 8, 2014
After Monday Night Raw went off the air last night, Big Show and John Cena stormed the ring to save Daniel Bryan from an attack by Kane and Triple H, who managed to escape to the backstage area. Randy Orton, however, was not as lucky, as he was left out there alone with the three baby faces. Each of them hit their finishing move on the WWE champion.
March 4, 2014
Since the company wants to protect the Undertaker character, the belief right now within WWE is that the top candidate to induct Paul Bearer into the hall of fame at Wrestlemania 30 is Kane. With the way Mick Foley has been bashing the product over the last couple of months, it appears that there are a few people in management who are voting against him doing the induction speech.
March 4, 2014
WWE has uploaded the quick hall of fame induction video for Paul Bearer that was shown on Monday Night Raw. It features stars like Daniel Bryan and Kofi Kingston doing quick interviews. It also features the legendary manager with Undertaker, Kane, Mick Foley and Vader.
March 4, 2014
After being heavily rumored for several weeks now, WWE has decided to go forward and induct Paul Bearer into the hall of fame at Wrestlemania 30. There were those backstage that were hoping for the company to wait until Kane and Undertaker are being inducted as well. Putting all three of them together in the same class would make it quite a marketable event.
March 3, 2014
As predicted by many, Randy Orton walked away from Elimination Chamber 2014 with the WWE Championship. Sheamus, Christian and Antonio Cesaro were the first eliminated. Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan helped to eliminate John Cena. Finally, Kane attacked Daniel Bryan, which enabled Orton to pick up the victory and earn his spot in the main event next month.
February 23, 2014
Rumors coming out of WWE was that management had initially planned on surprising the fans by having Brock Lesnar, who is not scheduled to return until Monday Night Raw, show up at Elimination Chamber 2014 and replacing Christian in the main event. However, those plans may have been scrapped because Kane accidentally leaked the story to the media.
February 23, 2014
There is some backstage heat on Kane right now after the incident where he publicly stated that Brock Lesnar would be appearing at Elimination Chamber 2014. That was intended to be a surprise by management, and there are talks that the story line at the pay per view could now be changed because of the misstep by Kane during the interview.
February 23, 2014
Upon hearing about the death of Big Daddy V, who passed away after suffering a massive heart attack days after his birthday, Kane took to Twitter to post this simple message about his friend. It's a rather interesting Tweet, as Kane does not post all that often on the social media website.
February 21, 2014
In a rather interesting bit of news, Kane revealed during an interview with an NBC affiliate this week that Brock Lesnar was indeed going to be at the Elimination Chamber 2014 pay per view. He was initially only scheduled to show up on the next episode of Monday Night Raw, but it looks like WWE has changed up their plans a bit.
February 21, 2014
Since CM Punk has left the company and Daniel Bryan could be placed in a higher profile match, it appears that Kane might need someone else to work with at Wrestlemania 30. A name that has popped up backstage is Big Show, another veteran performer who needs an opponent for the big event. The two of them could be thrown together as a backup plan.

Businesses, buddies and babies: social ties and fertility at work
We examine the influence that co-workers' have on each other's fertility decisions. Using linked employer employee panel data for Sweden we show that female individual fertility increases if a co-worker recently had a child. The timing of births among co-workers of the same sex, educational level and co workers who are close in age is even more influential. Consistent with models of social learning we find that the peer effect for first time mothers is similar irrespective of the birth order of the co-worker's child, while for higher order births within-parity peer effects are strong but cross-parity peer effects are entirely absent. A causal interpretation of our estimates is strengthened by several falsification tests showing that neither unobserved common shocks at the workplace level, nor sorting of workers between workplaces are likely to explain the observed peer effect. We also provide evidence suggesting that peers not only affect timing of births but potentially also completed fertility, and that fertility peer influences spills over across multiple networks. Our results forward the understandings of how individual fertility timing decisions are made and suggest that social interactions could be an important factor behind the strong inter-temporal fluctuations in total fertility rates observed in many countries.Download Info

text: Author has written 2 stories for Hobbit, and Sherlock. Hi! I am a student and I live in South of the U.S! Month one Mommy I am only 8 inches long but I have all my organs. I love the sound of your voice. Every time I hear it I wave my arms and legs. The sound of your heart beat is my favorite lullaby. Month Two Mommy today I learned how to suck my thumb. If you could see me you could definitely tell that I am a baby. I'm not big enough to survive outside my home though. It is so nice and warm in here. Month Three You know what Mommy I'm a boy!! I hope that makes you happy. I always want you to be happy. I don't like it when you cry. You sound so sad. It makes me sad too and I cry with you even though you can't hear me. Month Four Mommy my hair is starting to grow. It is very short and fine but I will have a lot of it. I spend a lot of my time exercising. I can turn my head and curl my fingers and toes and stretch my arms and legs. I am becoming quite good at it too. Month Five You went to the doctor today. Mommy, he lied to you. He said that I'm not a baby. I am a baby Mommy, your baby. I think and feel. Mommy, what's abortion? Month Six I can hear that doctor again. I don't like him. He seems cold and heartless. Something is intruding my home. The doctor called it a needle. Mommy what is it? It burns! Please make him stop! I can't get away from it! Mommy! HELP me! Month Seven Mommy I am okay. I am in Jesus's arms. He is holding me. He told me about abortion. Why didn't you want me Mommy? Every Abortion Is Just . . . One more heart that was stopped. Two more eyes that will never see. Two more hands that will never touch. Two more legs that will never run. One more mouth that will never speak. copyy this to your profile if you are against abortion!!! Abortions...God I hate them, but hey. This what I believe and what my Ma told me...here it is--If you don't want to have a baby then suppress the urge to allow a guy or girl get in your pants. And again, this what I believe, what do you believe? This is a story about a little girl that was abused. If you care at all, copy and paste this into your profile: My name is Sarah I am but three, My eyes are swollen I cannot see, I must be stupid I must be bad, What else could have made My daddy so mad? I wish I were better I wish I weren't ugly, Then maybe my mommy Would still want to hug me. I can't speak at all I can't do a wrong Or else I'm locked up All the day long When I awake I'm all alone The house is dark My folks aren't home. When my mommy does come I'll try and be nice, So maybe I'll get just One whipping tonight Don't make a sound! I just heard a car My daddy is back From Charlie's Bar. I hear him curse My name he calls I press myself Against the wall. I try and hide From his evil eyes I'm so afraid now I'm starting to cry .He finds me weeping He shouts ugly words, He says its my fault That he suffers at work. He slaps me and hits me And yells at me more, I finally get free And I run for the door. He's already locked it And I start to bawl, He takes me and throws me Against the hard wall. I fall to the floor With my bones nearly broken, And my daddy continues With more bad words spoken. "I'm sorry!", I scream But its now much too late His face has been twisted Into unimaginable hate. The hurt and the pain Again and again Oh please God, have mercy! Oh please let it end! And he finally stops And heads for the door, While I la:y there motionless Sprawled on the floor. My name is Sarah And I am but three, Tonight my daddy, Murdered me. Child abuse, MAKE IT STOP! I just want say that child abuse is just darn WRONG. The white man said, "Coloured people are not allowed here." The black man turned around and stood up. He then said: "Listen sir...when I was born I was BLACK, When I grew up I was BLACK, When I'm sick I'm BLACK, When I go in the sun I'm BLACK, When I'm cold I'm BLACK, When I die I'll be BLACK. But you sir, When you're born you're PINK, When you grow up you're WHITE, When you're sick, you're GREEN, When you go in the sun you turn RED, When you're cold you turn BLUE, And when you die you turn PURPLE. And you have the nerve to call me coloured?" The black man then sat back down and the white man walked away... Doesn't this make you sad? I know I feel sad. ;( BUT- No more depressing stuff-On to happy things! And when I mean 'happy things'...I mean my...happy things. For example: The Hobbit. Yup. The Hobbit is my happiness until I get bored of it. I doubt it though. Also I would recommend anyone to read the book, but I know everybody has their own tastes. And here are my favorite scenes which I am aware they are not in order to when they happened! Also I have a lot more scenes and I did have them previously all my profile however I deleted them. I only kept the scenes that I thought would matter to me. Hobbit: You! Mr. Bilbo where're you off to? This is a scene that started it all and made me almost jump in my seat screaming, "That's right, Bilbo! Go, GO!" Thorin Oakenshield: [singing] Far over the misty mountains cold / To dungeons deep and caverns old And honestly, I had to keep this scene. It's so darn beautiful...:D Okay that's all I have to show! I'm bored now!!! DX/XD |

Announcement on Kishore Kumar film soon: Anurag Basu
Varinder Chawla
Mumbai: Anurag Basu says the script of his film on Kishore Kumar is complete and an announcement will be made soon.
Basu's film on Kishore Kumar will feature Ranbir Kapoor in the lead role. The actor worked with the director in 'Barfi!' this year.
"We (Anurag and Ranbir) both are committed and very soon you will hear the announcement from us, when we are going to start that film," said Basu.
"After 'Barfi!', I was working on that film only, scripting has completed now and we will decide when and what happens," he added.
Basu feels after the industry lost so many stars this year, it is now the current generation's responsibility to carry the baton.
"2012 has been a mix of good and bad. We have lost so many legends but now its our (filmmakers) responsibility to carry forward this legacy. Now it is a relay race and we will move forward carrying the baton," he said.

Chinese New Year | Wednesday Night Chinese Takeout 0 comments
(click to enlarge)The Chinese New Year occurs on Friday January 31 this year. It is the year of the Horse. So welcome all you horse lovers! It turns our I checked on my birth year and I was born in the year of the Horse (not saying what year).
Chinese New Year..new moonSo why does the Chinese New Year start later than the western New Year? And why does it change every year? I honestly didn't know but wanted to find out, so asked OZ, I mean Google. It turns out that the Chinese New Year starts with the first new moon of the year and lasts until full moon which is 15 days. It changes every year depending on lunar cycle but occurs between January 21 and February 20.
Biggest Holiday of the YearThis is a big Chinese holiday. It is now commonly called the Spring Festival since the adoption in China of the Western calendar in 1912. So the Chinese join in celebrating New Years on January 1 each year but also have the Spring Festival.
The traditions surrounding the Spring Festival are many but the focus seems to be family and ancestors. Of course it is also becoming just a great time to get away and relax. Interesting fact I learned from the History Channel is that San Francisco claims its Chinese New Year parade is the biggest celebration of its kind outside of Asia.
Travel and LeisureSo, many Chinese are travelling for the Chinese New Year. Therefore in tonight's video on China I am focusing on Chinese travel and leisure stocks. We'll take a look at 4 fairly active stocks and reference a few others also. Here are the primary focus:
- CTRP - Ctrip.com International Ltd. Provides travel services for China. I believe it is like the Expedia or Priceline of China, but has a broad list of services that it provides. Founded in 1999, company is headquartered in Shanghai.
- QUNR - Qunar Cayman Islands Ltd. It is a subsidiary of Baidu,Inc. (BIDU) and provides online travel commerce platform for travel service providers. Founded in 2005, it is headquartered in Beijing.
- HMIN - Home Inns & Hotel Management Inc. Operates over 1800 economy hotels in 266 cities in China. Founded in 2006, it is headquartered in Shanghai.
- HTHT - China Lodging Group, Ltd.. Company provides business and leisure travelers hotels under six brands. Operates over 1,000 hotels in China. Founded in 2007, it is headquartered in Shanghai.
Other lower trading volume stocks include China Eastern Airlines (CEA), China Southern Airlines (ZNH), Country Style Cooking Restaurant (CCSC) and Guangshen Railway (GSH). By lower volume I mean the 3 month average daily volume on these are all less than 50,000 shares.
In the video I also take our weekly view of the Shanghai Composite Index. The United States stock market continued its push to the upside, so we take a quick look at it also.
Here is the link to my YouTube Channel for the video which I can't seem to post into this blog.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

It's sound graffiti and it feels so good.
Berman's current plan is deceptively simple: "To keep making these different versions of the master Silver Jews album in the sky." On Tanglewood, "How Can I Love You If You Won't Lie Down?" rocks hard but also highlights Berman's tragicomedy: "Time is a game only children play well/ How can I love you if you won't lie down?"
The Mezzanine performance will feature Peyton Pinkerton and William Tyler on guitars — Pinkerton played on 1996's The Natural Bridge, Tyler on 2001's Bright Flight (both Drag City) — Brian Kotzur on drums, Tony Crow on keyboards, and Cassie Berman on bass. Even the lineup gets Berman going. "Peyton is a descendent of William Henry Harrison.... I'm convinced that many of our country's best electric guitarists are the far-flung descendents of mediocre 19th-century American presidents." SFBG

Saturday 8 Mar 2014
By Sophia Kishkovsky. Web onlyPublished online: 07 November 2013
Zaha Hadid was in Baku on Tuesday for an official presentation of the Heydar Aliyev Center, which the Iraqi-born British architect designed. According to local media, Hadid said at the event: "It's really very humbling for me to have this experience. And it is a great honor for me to work with so many great people."
The undulating white waves of the new building are the most recent display of the architectural and cultural ambitions of the oil-rich former Soviet republic on the Caspian Sea. The cultural centre celebrates the late President of Azerbaijan, Heydar Aliyev, a member of the Politburo who transitioned into being a post-Soviet national leader. He died in the US in 2003, at a clinic in Cleveland, Ohio and was succeeded by his son Ilham Aliyev, whose wife, Mehriban Aliyeva is known as a patron of cultural projects.Construction of the complex, including a museum about Aliyev, galleries and a concert hall, began in 2007 and was completed last year. The space, which is 74.1 meters tall at its highest point and now dominates Heydar Aliyev Avenue, the main thoroughfare to the airport, opened to the public earlier this year. It has already hosted exhibitions of works by Andy Warhol and Tahir Salakhov, an Azerbaijani-born Soviet artist whose works include a large-scale portrait of Aliyev. Anar Alakbarov, the director of the centre, said on Tuesday that an effort is being made to synthesise the old and the new in Baku. "During construction works… a particular attention is paid to the harmony between our national traditions of architecture and modernity," he said.In 2012, Human Rights Watch issued a report condemning the Azerbaijani government for confiscating the property of residents in the historic city center and razing their homes in pursuit of its redevelopment projects. Residents near the Heydar Aliyev Center were not subject to such evictions since the building is located on the city outskirts, amid non-descript modern housing blocks.

The "pay to play" debate was reignited today after council bosses revealed plans to charge for premium adventure playground services.
Basic facilities such as rope swings and chain ladders will be free at the new Battersea Park Adventure Playground.
But "additional adventure and challenge" top-ups — such as using an aerial walkway or a climbing wall — will be available only for those who can pay.
Wandsworth council bulldozed the site last month after evicting the final Occupy protesters who were part of a last-gasp effort to save it.
The council is investing £200,000 in new adventure play equipment that does not require monitoring by staff, 14 of who lost their jobs.
Now private firms, charities, voluntary groups and not-for-profit organisations will be invited to tender to manage "additional services" on the site.
According to council documents, these could include an "aerial walkway" and "climbing wall" — similar to the equipment the council bulldozed from the site. A café is also planned.
A council agenda document states: "A provider would be likely to make a charge for these additional services". It also says: "The benefits of such an approach are not only the potential to generate income for the council but also the potential to offer a range of additional, probably charged-for, leisure opportunities to enhance the experience of adventure."
The plans are due to be agreed by a children's services scrutiny committee. Eighteen month ago, council bosses floated the idea of charging a £2.50 entry charge, but this was scrapped in favour of an unstaffed facility.
Jane Eades, of the Wandsworth Against Cuts pressure group, said: "They are using these adventure top-ups and the play huts as cash cows."
Kathy Tracey, Wandsworth's cabinet member for children's services, said: "These improvements come on top of the £500,000 in capital investment that the council has spent on refurbishing three playgrounds."

High School Insider with Danny Ventura & Jim Clark
Softball tournament preview
By DAN VENTURA
Two-time defending Division 1 state softball champion King Philip stubbed its toes twice during the middle portion of the season, but righted the ship down the stretch.
It would be crazy to count out a Warrior team led by All-Scholastic hurler Meghan Rico and a dangerous lineup led by Tori Constantin. Two other teams from the Hockomock League which bare watching are Mansfield and North Attleboro.
Bridgewater-Raynham features All-Scholastic hurler Audrey Dolloff and hitting machine Madi Shaw. A team to keep an eye on is Dighton-Rehoboth, who appears to have received one of the better draws around.
Two more to watch from the southeastern part of the state are New Bedford and Somerset.
In the North, Acton-Boxboro shrugged off a slow start and has to be considered one of the favorites with Sarah Ropiak on the mound. If Malden is ever going to break through, this is the year with ace Kiara Amos and hitters like Emily Hoffman in the lineup.
Newton North was led by the power hitting of Katie Caruso (10 home runs), while Boston Latin received a tough draw. The Wolfpack could very well be facing a dangerous Chelmsford team in the first round. Central Catholic is another darkhorse contender, a team which can hit the ball.
In Division 2 North, Dracut spent much of the second half of the season ranked No. 1 by the Boston Herald. The Middies seem to have it all, pitching, defense and hitting and displayed those skills in wins over Hudson, Central Catholic and Chelmsford.
The road won't be easy as North Reading is a legitimate contender with ace Terri Ferrazzani leading the way. Burlington reached the state final last year and went 16-2 which is reason enough to fear the Red Devils.
Not surprisingly, this group has a collection of teams who could present major problems for the so-called favorite. Among those to watch would be Tewksbury, Amesbury, Winchester and Bedford.
Division 2 South is extremely top-heavy with any of the top six seeds capable of winning. Top-seed Abington rolled through the South Shore League behind ace Kelly Norton and star shortstop Stephanie Cornish.
Fairhaven won the SCC title for the first time in school history and are keyed by ace Courtney Girouard and the tandem of Kayli Moniz and Kelsey Perron-Sovik. Sophomore Courtney Zambello was a tower of strength for Cardinal Spellman, while Patty Borges and Julie LeClair led a potent Coyle-Cassidy squad.
A pair of TVL teams, Bellingham and Hopkinton, should factor into the mix.
You have to believe Division 3 South could very well come down to a battle between Case and Greater New Bedford Voke. The two more than held their hold in a good SCC and will benefit from that.
Two teams capable of playing the spoiler are Avon and Harwich, two teams with solid pitching.
In Division 3 North, until someone can prove they are up to the challenge, St. Mary's has to be considered the team to beat. Keep an eye on Matignon, which had some good wins down the stretch.
Rockport and Shawsheen are two other teams who should fair well in the section, though Shawsheen got a potentially tough early draw in Matignon.

I'm not aware of any other backlinks to the example.ca domain. So the SERP shows my link text as the page title (the actual page title is different, but is not available to Googlebot), and no snippet is shown as Googlebot doesn't know the page content. All this is standard stuff.
However, why does Google show the "Translate this page" link, correctly offering a French to English translation?
The only hypothesis I have is that Googlebot recognizes
in my link, because nothing else indicates the language used on the page, and the linking domain is not in the same language as the linked domain. Anyone else experienced this?
