In between Mystery Science Theater 3000 and South Park, Comedy Central's biggest breakout was a cheaply made animated show called Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist. Co-created by comedian Jonathan Katz and animator/producer Tom Snyder, it starred Katz as the titular shrink and his relationships with his receptionist (Laura Silverman) and his son (H. Jon Benjamin, now of Archer and Bob's Burgers fame). The show was fleshed out by comedians like Ray Romano, Dom Irrera, Dave Attell, Louis C.K., Denis Leary, Jon Stewart, and Janeane Garofalo. The show last aired in 2002, but a few years back, Katz dusted off his »

When Pulp Fiction opened in theaters 20 years ago today, the mainstream moviegoing audience was introduced to a dynamic new Hollywood talent. Quentin Tarantino was a 31-year-old hipster whose formal film education never rose much higher than working as a clerk in a Manhattan Beach video store. A walking encyclopedia of film history who fetishized some of the more obscure genres, Tarantino had a gift for dialog and his own visual toolbox that expanded the language of cinematic storytelling. Pulp Fiction was the culmination of a two-year stretch where the director went from Nobody to Wunderkind, beginning with the Sundance premiere »

During the Q&A at the Broad City panel at New York Comic Con Friday night, one fan asked the creators Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer who would be on their personal "gross fuck lists." She was referring, of course, to the final scene of last season's finale, when Abbi and Ilana compare notes on who would be on their lists (Oj Simpson for Abbi, David Blaine and the old dancing Six Flags dancing guy for Ilana). So what about their real-life gross fuck lists? Turns out they were just talking about it the other day!Ilana: You just came up with a really good one the other day. Abbi: Oh yeah, but I feel bad...I feel bad saying that about anyone. So yeah I said...Denis Leary. He's kind of hot, but in a villainy way. Ilana: Same thing as Willem Dafoe. I think I'd have sex with him. »

Draft Day, 2014.
Directed by Ivan Reitman.
Starring Kevin Costner, Jennifer Garner, Ellen Burstyn, Denis Leary and Frank Langella.
The first day of the NFL draft proves dramatic for the general manager of a team in need of a turnaround.
There are a lot of things Draft Day gets right. It's a 'sports movie' that can be enjoyed by hard core football fans or people who couldn't tell you the difference between a touchdown or a field goal. Rather than focusing on an actual football game Draft Day uses the intense and time restrictive pressure of the first day of the NFL draft to wrap its story around. Any sports fan who has watched the NFL draft on TV (a painfully slow and boring process) will be delighted to see the action packed craziness that takes place behind the scenes with players, teams, and owners scrambling to make »

Director: Ivan Reitman; Screenwriters: Scott Rothman, Rajiv Joseph; Starring: Kevin Costner, Jennifer Garner, Denis Leary, Frank Langella, Ellen Burstyn; Running time: 110 mins; Certificate: 15
While lacking the dramatic clout of the similarly-themed Moneyball, Draft Day nonetheless provides an easy viewing experience thanks to director Ivan Reitman's breezy pacing and star Kevin Costner's enduring appeal as a leading man.
Costner plays NFL manager Sonny Weaver, tasked with rebuilding his Cleveland Browns team on the all important draft day - a time when rival teams barter and jostle to secure the best new recruits. The coverage dominates the media and the stakes are high for all those involved, but why on earth should we give a hoot?
Draft Day does a good job at communicating the premise to those not familiar with American football and the frenzied dealings behind the scenes, culminating in a tense (if by-numbers) finale of one-upmanship. Although »

In order for humans to team up with zombies and vampires, you know the circumstances must be dire. In Sony's upcoming horror comedy, Kitchen Sink, an alien invasion forces the living to team up with fanged fiends and the shambling dead in order to save their town, though viewers will have to wait longer to see this unlikely bond, as Sony has delayed the release of Kitchen Sink by nearly eight months.
Exhibitor Relations reports that Sony has moved the release of Kitchen Sink from its January 9th, 2015 slot to September 4th. The monster mash-up movie has been described as having a vibe akin to The Breakfast Club, but we'll have to wait for a trailer and more synopsis details to see what ghoulish goods could be in store. Stay tuned to Daily Dead for further updates.

IFC is developing a scripted comedy "Uncle Chubby's" from Denis Leary's Apostle banner.

Apostle also produces "Maron" for IFC. The company is set to begin production on the second season of USA Network's "Sirens" as well as the Leary starrer "Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll" for FX. Serpico and Sellitti are also writing "The Bakken," a one-hour drama pilot for Fox Television Studios.

IFC has renewed Marc Maron's comedy series "Maron" for season three. Production on 13 new half-hour episodes will begin this fall, and the show will return to IFC in the spring of 2015.
Each episode of the comedy offers a fictionalized look at Marc's life, chronicling the man's misguided attempts to grow.
"Usually Marc has a hard time maintaining long-term relationships, but luckily not with us," said Jennifer Caserta, president of IFC. "He's committed to bringing his wry humor and refreshing perspective back to IFC for a third season."
"I am very proud of both seasons of the show and thrilled we're doing another one," said Maron. "Through all the episodes I can see the growth and evolution of the character, writing and comedy. I'm excited about getting back into the process. The character of Maron needs some work on and off screen and fortunately that's what drives the show. »

The Amazing Spider-Man 2, 2014.
Directed by Marc Webb.
Starring Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, Dane DeHaan, Campbell Scott, Embeth Davidtz, Colm Feore, Paul Giamatti, Sally Field, B.J. Novak, Felicity Jones, Chris Cooper, Chris Zylka and Denis Leary.
When atrocities threaten New York, Spider-Man must protect the citizens of New York and his loved ones before New York's heart befalls into tragedy.
Despite helping to change the face of the superhero movie in 21st century Hollywood, the Spider-Man franchise died before our very eyes, delighting and enthralling before crashing and burning. The best intentions of director Sam Raimi notwithstanding, Spider-Man 3 failed, even if it was the franchises' highest grosser. While many blamed the excess of villains and characters, which led to a horribly disjointed script, it was the studio's insistence on things (namely Venom) that ultimately derailed our friendly neighbourhood Spidey.

Directed by Ivan Reitman, the sports drama Draft Day, available on Blu-ray/DVD on September 2nd, shows just how much NFL Draft Day can change the lives of athletes and the fortunes of football teams. General Manager Sonny Weaver Jr. (Kevin Costner) is up against fan pressure, an ambitious owner (Frank Langella) and a hard-nosed coach (Denis Leary), who all think they know what's best for the team, and he must decide whether to go with the consensus pick or trust his instincts and risk losing everything. The film also stars Jennifer Garner, Sam Elliott, Sean Combs, Terry Crews, Tom Welling, Ellen Burstyn and Chadwick Boseman. During this exclusive phone interview with Collider, Reitman talked about wanting to make a sports movie that even people who don't care about sports could enjoy, focusing on the human drama, what makes him want to direct a movie, that there were »

In a case of life imitating art, the Cleveland Browns made some ambitious draft-day trades in May to land a college football star who they hope can turn around their franchise. Heisman trophy winner Johnny Manziel will be holding a clipboard when the real Browns open their season next week, but he's already been anointed a savior by a city that hasn't won an NFL title since 1964. In Ivan Reitman's movie, Draft Day, Kevin Costner stars as Sonny Weaver Jr., the Browns' embattled general manager faced with a make-or-break draft to reverse the team's losing fortunes and save his job. »

FX has given a series order to "Baskets," a new comedy from the creative all-star team of Zach Galifianakis, Louis C.K. and Jonathan Krisel. But don't get too invested in "Baskets," because its premiere is a mighty long way away. Seemingly the "Shakes the Clown" for the 21st Century, "Baskets" focuses on a Bakersfield, California resident named Chip Baskets (Galifianakis), who dreams of becoming a professional clown. When things go wrong at a prestigious French clowning academy, he's forced to make ends meet as a rodeo clown, while never giving up his true lofty aspirations. "Baskets" will begin production next year, but the 10-episode first season won't premiere until 2016. "Zach Galifianakis, Louis C.K. and Jonathan Krisel have created an absolutely brilliant show," blurbs Eric Schrier, half of FX's two-headed President of Original Programming team with Nick Grad.

With the home-entertainment release of The Amazing Spider-Man 2 just around the corner, a deleted scene from the Spidey sequel featuring Peter Parker and Harry Osborn has turned up online, as well as an alternate ending which shows Peter's dad Richard Parker popping up – alive – to deliver the famous "with great power…" line; take a look below…
We've always known that Spider-Man's most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead. It's great to be Spider-Man.
For Peter Parker, there's no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen. But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. »

Love may be patient, but it can also get a little threadbare after years of routine — and child-rearing. That's the central theme of FX's latest sitcom Married (premiering tonight at 10/9c).
The series follows Russ and Linda (Ben & Kate's Nat Faxon and Arrested Development's Judy Greer) as they try to keep romance (and their sex life) alive while raising their three kids on one income. (He's a graphic designer, she's a stay-at-home mom.)

The year before the Demonbrats regained control of Congress in Jan 2007, the Federal Deficit was $162 Billion. Remember the President can't spend anything that Congress doesn't authorize (as you've been telling us the past few months). What happened between 2007 and 2009? And don't tell me Congress was not involved in any way.
Republicans are reportedly ready to vote to hike the debt ceiling without any of the major deficit-related concessions they've been pushing for from Democrats, and budget-watchers will soon turn their attention to the looming sequestration spending cuts (from the Budget Control Act, or BCA) scheculed to take place on March 1 and the expiration of the continuing resolution budget that the federal government has been operating on, scheduled to take place March 28.
Progressives, however, have been declaring the deficit problem "mostly solved." A report from the left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities found that, including all...

SANTA FE (AP) - State records show that New Mexico legislators averaged a little over $16,000 in compensation last year although they receive no annual salary.
The New Mexico Legislature is part-time. House and Senate members collect a daily expense payment, called a per diem, when the Legislature is in session and while attending or traveling to committee meetings throughout the rest of the year.
Four state senators were the highest compensated members of the Legislature last year, according to information from the Department of Finance and Administration obtained by The Associated Press through a public records request.
Democratic Sen. John Pinto of Gallup collected $27,463. Democratic Sen. Carlos Cisneros received $26,905, and Republican Sen. Lee Cotter of Las Cruces got $26,800. Senate President Mary Kay Papen, a Las Cruces Democrat, received $26,289.

Debris comes with hefty price tag
Nearly four months have passed since the Great Flood of 2011 poured out its wrath on many communities along the Mississippi River, including the Tunica Cut-off.
While many former Cut-off residents have moved on to take up residences elsewhere, dozens more are still trying to put their lives back together, removing tons of debris from what once were their homes. Consequently, officials are projecting the total cost of cleanup from the flood to total into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The McMaster Marauders are out to stop the Guelph Gryphons from winning a sixth Ontario University Athletics women's rugby championship in seven seasons when the two teams meet at Ron Joyce Field in Hamilton at 4 p.m. on Saturday (Oct. 25).
Last year the Gryphons were defeated by the Queen's Gaels in the OUA championship, marking the first time Guelph had lost an OUA game since the 2007 season. The Gryphons got revenge last weekend in the semi-finals, though, beating Queen's, 29-21, led by two tries from leading scorer Jennifer Dunn (West Vancouver, B.C.).
Guelph finished first in the Shiels Division this season with 19 points and a 3-0-2 record and has five OUA all-stars on its roster. Three all-stars in 2013 made a repeat appearance in 2014: fourth-year flanker Brittany Priddle (Badjeros, Ont.), fifth-year inside centre Shannon Spurrell (Haley Station, Ont.), and fourth-year second row Brittany Kassil (Guelph).
Third-year lock Devon Stober (Mississauga, Ont.), and second-year centre Rita Charest-Pekeski (Barrie, Ont.) made their first all-star appearances.
Though McMaster has never won an OUA women's rugby championship, the Marauders stack up incredibly well against the Gryphons. Like Guelph, the Marauders also won their division putting together a 4-0-1 season, and advanced past the perennially tough Western Mustangs in convincing fashion with a 24-10 win in the semi-finals. McMaster burst out to a 17-3 first-half lead and never looked back.
The Marauders also lay claim to five players named 2014 OUA All-Stars. Fourth-year number 8 Cindy Nelles (Belleville, Ont.) and fourth-year centre Emily Ricketts (Oakville, Ont.) each made the all-star team for a second straight season. Nelles led the Marauders in scoring with 25 points coming off five tries. Two first-year Marauders were named all-stars; flanker Sara Svoboda (Belleville, Ont.) and lock Abigail Moody (Toronto) put together very impressive rookie campaigns. Third-year scrum-half Heidi Henderson (Stirling, Ont.) rounds out the Marauders all-star cast.
If the regular season is any indication, expect a close matchup on Saturday; the two teams played to a 27-27 draw when they met on Sept. 28 in Hamilton.
With Guelph playing host to the 2014 national championship, both teams will automatically receive berths in the national championship, however, seeding will be determined based on the results of Saturday's match.
The bronze medal game between the Gaels and Mustangs will decide which team gets the OUA's third and final berth at the national championship. Queen's, the defending OUA champions, finished second in the Russell Division behind McMaster and travels to London on Saturday for a 4 p.m. game. Western finished third in the Shiels Division with a 2-3-0 record.

Cute Alert: Rehabbed Penguins Get Released!
by GiggleSugar 5 Reactions 0 Shares Print
This technically falls under the sad 'n' cute category. Environmental disasters decimate animal populations, and oil spills are particularly horrible. These folks from IFAW (The International Fund for Animal Welfare), who rehabilitated penguin victims of an oil spill, got to release them back into the ocean. Warning though: this video, filmed in Brazil, moves from cute to sad, but ultimately back to cute again.

penguins are one of my favorite animals. Remember the penguin that got knighted in Norway? He waddles down the path and stops to stare at the guards standing at attention, and someone has to respectfully push him down the path again... :)

It's cute because they are cute... But there has to be sadness on the parts of their human "friends" who spent months getting them clean of the thick oil from the penguins (& other animals affected) - helpless to save those who were too far gone to survive. Then they had to take them to the beach & release them to uncertain futures. Will they find their way home after so long away from the sea? How many will make it (given the fact that there are dangers in the oceans & they are dinner for sharks, whales, & I believe illegal fishing fleets who don't care what they catch so long as they obtain there major goal of getting their quota of tuna, sharks, whales, etc. So yes, from that perspective, it does go from "cute, to sad, to cute again."

October 21, 2014
Turning into a driveway west of Antigo, you see right away, it's a really nice yard! You're greeted by a couple of rows of roses. Going around the back you also see deep purple clematis decorating the side of the garage.
The man behind it is Dennis Bula. He says, "this is relaxing to just come out out here and just putz around. You're not under pressure to get anything done."
Speaking of relaxing, the water feature in the back yard does a really good job of that. That's also where colorful, potted hydrangea's really catch your eye.
But the part of the yard that Dennis seems to take most pride is nestled under some trees. It mimics a dry river bed surrounded by shade loving plants. Mostly hostas.
Dennis loves his hostas, "they're unique in how they grow. They're hardy as long as the deer don't eat them."
Among the unique hostas in Dennis' yard are the curly fry which is the hosta of the year and the praying hands.
He says you don't have to become a master gardener or even buy lots of magazines to turn your yard into a Great Garden. You just have to drive past other yards.
"Sometimes you drive by someone's yard and say that's really neat, I don't know if I ever taken a picture, but it's there in my mind, anyway,"
says Dennis.
He's been slowly building sprucing up the yard over the last 40-years. Changing it from mostly grass into the great garden it is today.
And the future? More hostas of course!

Surf Report Mid Coast SAby Peter Mariner

Today's rating
Winds are light from the NE and conditions are clean on the Mid Coast early, with a few small lines of fading swell on the reefs. Surf is around 1' and the tide's just turning to head out, so conditions are a bit full. Typically, the dropping tide will knock the stuffing out of it mid morning, but hopefully there'll be a small lift on the incoming tide early arvo. The forecast is for variable winds shifting light Southerly mid arvo, so there may be some bumps later.

Posted November 26, 2012 on AP on Fox
Jarnell Stokes scored 19 points and went 7-of-8 from the floor Monday as Tennessee relied on suffocating defense to roll to a 77-50 victory over cold-shooting Oakland. The victory helped Tennessee (4-1) gain a measure of revenge against Oakland, a Summit League program that had defeated Tennessee each of the last two seasons. Oakland, which has averaged 23.5 wins over the last four years, won 89-82 at Knoxville in December 2010 and beat the Vols 89-81 at home last season. But the Golden Grizzlies never had a chance Monday. Oakland (2-5) shot just 28.6 percent (16-of-56) overall and went 2-of-16 from 3-point range. The Golden Grizzlies (2-5) were coming off a 70-52 loss at Michigan State on Friday in which they shot 27.6 percent (16-of-58), their worst field-goal percentage since joining the Division I ranks in 1999. Tennessee played at Oakland last year just four days after returning from the Maui Classic and looked like a tired team that entire game. The Volunteers avoided a si...

Hi Candace!
I'm back ;)
First, thank you for all these informations, I will keep them and ask my father asap. I don't know very much about his family, just a few times he told me things about. Like he told me he lived in Carapelle till he ages 5 or 6, that his grandfather was called Vincenzo (what does sound like Vincent Polito but I can't remember anything about this last name, I'm not sure at all we're talking about the same person, plus his grandfather was living in Carapelle and yours was born in Rome... anyway, I'll ask).
I'm really sorry I don't know Jay Migliori, but I don't listen to jazz, maybe it is an explanation... the other being I'm 26, so I guess his songs were not the ones I heard when I was a child. After a few search on the net it appears he was pretty famous. I'll try to know more about him.
I guess it's really wonderful to find family like this! I wasn't hoping for that the first time I came here but why not? I'm just impatient to hear from my dad. It's past 9pm here and a bit late for me to call him. I'll give you the answer as soon as I get it.

The Minnesota Vikings were victorious against the Arizona Cardinals in their second preseason contest on Saturday night. While it is always nice to get a victory, there were some things that the team needs to improve upon and some other things that were executed very well.
I will break the game down into three separate sections to discuss them. Second is the defensive side of the ball. Here are the good, the bad, and the ugly on defense:
The Good
Three new starters shined in the first team defense. Everson Griffen showed in this game why he signed he huge deal that he did. He has an unbelievably quick step and could help Vikings fans forget about the future Hall of Fame defensive end who left in free agency. Also, linebacker Anthony Barr impressed once again. Barr got to the quarterback for the second time in two weeks and stripped the QB of the ball. Of particular note is how good Barr looked in coverage when he wasn't executing a pass rush. Still really excited about this kid's future. The final new starter that looked quite good in the front 7 is Sharrif Floyd. He plugged running holes well and pushed offensive linemen back.
Marcus Sherels was all over the field. For a guy that some were questioning as to whether or not he would make the final roster, he sure turned out an excellent effort on Saturday. He recorded 9 solo tackles and defended one pass while showing that he's much, much more than just a punt returner. While Sherels shouldn't be in the conversation as a starter, he'll be a solid backup that could step in and play in a pinch.
The Bad
The dropoff at nose tackle without Linval Joseph was huge. Fred Evans was disappointing filling in for Joseph and we actually saw productivity increase when backup Shamar Stephen replaced him. If this game showcased one major thing in this defense, it is how important Linval Joseph is to the success of the defensive line. Hopefully he is healing up well from being shot in the leg and will be ready to make his return for week 1 of the regular season.
The Vikings defense allowed too many conversions on 3rd and 4th down. Don't get me wrong, they weren't absolutely terrible on third down when the Cardinals were able to pick up the first down on 7 of their 15 tries. The major issue was allowing Arizona to pick up all 4 of their attempts on 4th down. Vikings fans have grown tired of seeing this defense giving away leads and playing it safe. 11/19 on 3rd and 4th downs just isn't going to cut it.
The Ugly
Backup defensive ends really struggled. With how much I really like Scott Crichton and Corey Wootton, I have to admit that they both looked bad on Saturday. Between the two players, penalties, falling for play action, biting on misdirections and generally being out of position. I understand how fast this Arizona Cardinals offense is, but a veteran like Wootton shouldn't be falling for those tricks so consistently. And while Crichton is a rookie, he showed this game how raw he is when it comes to read and react type plays.

"Hellboy." His answer was simple and quick. Kinda like his name.
"Transylvania? Did you delivered one to vampires?
What kind of pizza did they ordered? Man I want some pizza too."
"Not Vampires. Necromancers.
You really don't want to know.
But I'm game for some actual totally normal pizza."
*gets up*
"Oh great, so I'm finally in hell then. Thats just fantastic."
"Unless you consider New York hell, nah, not really."
"Not even for inspiration?"
"What kinda inspiration could I give?"
"Don't think my dad really cares, man." Wait— that's totally not something a hardcore, infamous vigilante would say. "I… I mean—"
"I got business t' tend to."
"Even if he's a deadbeat, still your dad, he'll care in the end, kid." But his dad did set the standard for him. He looks down at Casey, a bit curious.
"What kinda business you got at this time of night.
If it's on the up and up, I could help."
"Fantastic. A-okay. My face is fine. This is just what I look like — NO, I'm not okay! This red stuff is called blood!"
He rifles through his jacket for a second, not just responding yet. Pulling out a roll of bandages, he hands it to him. "Good for you I'm prepared for a lot of stuff."
"Uh-huh… I guess I can see your reasoning if they're that big. Sounds troublesome. But, aren't horns supposed to be something like bone? Wouldn't that hurt?" Roi couldn't imagine. Attached to the head they must have a lot of nerves in them. How could he just shave them down?
"Hrm. They're made of something else, least mine are. Cause my bones ain't as red as my skin. And I sand them down. Power sander is usually what I use. That's why they're as perfectly shaved down like they are." And it hurt, when he first did it, but he's been doing it for at least 60 years, so he's gotten used to it.
"I just fought off some giant bug monster and now I'm seeing big red dudes. Yeah, I need some help."
"Don't worry, I'm not a figment of some concussion, I'm the real deal."
"I can outrun both."
"Thought you said impress you, not list things you can't outrun.
Do I look like I'm super fast."
Yeah. She had nothing. Maybe that meant she was finally growing out of sidekick quipping.
"… Uh. Yeah."
"Though that doesn't really mean anything.
If you're good at what you do, you're as good as anyone else."

Hainsey, Antropov: Too good to trade?
Jets have realistic playoff shot and Hainsey's solid play makes him almost indispensable; Antro's been pretty good as well
Ron Hainsey's play may have priced him right out of the trade market.
Hainsey has long been seen as a player Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff might peddle at the deadline, but a number of factors are beginning to make such a deal less likely.
To a slightly lesser degree, the same can be said for Nik Antropov.
Both veteran players are unrestricted free agents this summer and Cheveldayoff likely had plans to try and grab draft picks in exchange for both prior to the trade deadline.
But a GM's plans are always subject to his team's position in the standings. If the Jets are holding down third spot in the conference on deadline day, will he be a buyer or a seller?
"Yes. I would be one of those," laughed Cheveldayoff. "It's an interesting time. I think the real dynamics that come in to play are the potential ramifications of the cap going down next year. I think the traditional buying and selling will occur, but there could be some deals that have long-ranging effects."
Cheveldayoff has to consider the optics of trading veteran players while having a legitimate chance of finishing third in the conference and having home-ice advantage in a playoff series against a low seed.
"I'm not so worried about third or not. If we get into the playoffs, then we deserve to get in there. Third or sixth or eighth or fifth, it would be a great opportunity for our young players to go to the playoffs," said Cheveldayoff. "That's obviously what you are trying to do. Now, you don't sell the farm to do it, but in the same breath you don't sit here and look at the opportunity and say, 'nah, we'll wait until next year.' You take what you can get and you run with it."
Hainsey has consistently been one of Winnipeg's top-three defenders all season and it's difficult to imagine Cheveldayoff moving him for futures unless they are jaw-dropping. Maybe a combination of a roster player and picks could get Cheveldayoff in the mood to deal.
A case can be made for Antropov being the Jets most physical and effective forward over the last nine games, collecting 26 hits and seven points. Evander Kane, who leads the Jets in hits this season has 31 and two points over that stretch, underscoring Antropov's value right now.
Cheveldayoff says the Jets have a blueprint for the trade deadline but it's written in pencil, not ink.
"We're making phone calls. There are so many different scenarios out there for so many different teams," he said. "I heard it said somewhere recently that the tables are being set, but no one knows yet who they are having over for dinner. Plans are great in this chair and it's important to have things laid out, but you better have a Plan A, a Plan B and a Plan C."
Hainsey and Antropov certainly aren't unmoveable. If someone wants to give Cheveldayoff a low first-round pick for Hainsey the GM will be tempted. But that's the likely asking price considering the body of work Hainsey has provided this season.
Say what you will about Hainsey -- he's not physical and provides little offence -- he's has been just short of outstanding.
Hainsey plays a cerebral game and is almost always in the right position.
With injuries to Zach Bogosian, Toby Enstrom and Dustin Byfuglien keeping the Jets blue-line short one of their top-4 defenders for all but seconds this season, Hainsey has stepped in and carried more than his load.
The 31-year-old has nine assists in 29 games and is a minus-one while averaging over 23 minutes of ice a game. He's been more than serviceable and Jets coach Claude Noel wouldn't like to think where he'd be without him.
Hainsey is a very solid No. 5 defender on almost every team in the NHL and there's a market for that, as he and his agent will likely find out this July.
Cheveldayoff and the Jets don't have the depth to move Hainsey without enduring a significant drop-off on the blue-line. Paul Postma has been sitting in the press box for a reason and Grant Clitsome has struggled mightily of late. Arturs Kulda was added Monday but what he has to offer remains to be seen.
No, Hainsey has proven to be valuable. Watching Cheveldayoff stick to his asking price for Johnny Oduya last season should tell you something.
If he thinks Hainsey is worth a certain price, he won't budge.
Same goes for Antropov.

Austerity: The History of a Dangerous Idea
Credit: Oxford University Press.This book has a rather unusual genesis. David McBride from Oxford University Press emailed me in July 2010 and asked me if I wanted to write a book about the turn to austerity in economic policy. I had been playing with a book idea called "The End of the Liberal World" for a while but really hadn't been getting all that far with it. Dave's offer seemed to be a ready-made alternative project. After all, someone had to write such a book, and since I had, as bankers say, "skin in the game" here, for reasons I shall elaborate below, I said yes. Shortly thereafter Geoffrey Kirkman, Associate Director of the Watson Institute for International Studies at Brown University, where I am a faculty fellow, wondered if there was anything that I would like to make into a short video. I say yes – I'd do something about this new book that I have agreed to write.

Andrew Edwards: How Austerity Pushed American Colonists to Revolt
Andrew Edwards is a PhD student in American history at Princeton University. The opinions expressed are his own.As the euro area tries to wrestle member states into fiscal submission through bailouts, austerity and capital controls, it would be well advised to consider a historical precedent: the American Revolution.In the early 18th century, North America held a role in the British Empire that was similar to the one occupied by Cyprus or Slovenia in the euro area today. Americans were slavers, smugglers, rumrunners and fanatics -- as "opulent, commercial, thriving" as they were irresponsible and fiscally profligate. But as the empire struggled to stay solvent after the Seven Years War, the government of Prime Minister George Grenville attempted to bring the colonists to heel in the name of fiscal austerity."The Circumstances of the Times, the Necessities of the Country, and the Abilities of the Colonies, concur in requiring an American Revenue," wrote Thomas Whately, a Grenville ally, in 1765.
