Berwin Leighton has become the latest firm to join the dotcom world by launching a joint venture with accountancy giant Deloitte & Touche - and has already considered the option of floating.
The firms have jointly invested £5m in setting up an internet venture dubbed Be-Professional, which aims to deliver basic professional services to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It is the first time a City law firm has joined forces with a top five accountancy firm to create a separate business.
Berwin Leighton managing partner Neville Eisenberg says: "Be-Professional will revolutionise the way professional services are delivered and how businesses and their advisers interact.
"Smaller businesses will be able to access high quality business solutions drawing on our combined expertise.
"We may float in a few years time if that's a sensible thing to do. It might be worth a lot in a few years, but we're not retiring from law and accounting yet."
Be-Professional will be launched fully in October, but its initial service, which provides information on VAT liability and creates tailored privacy statements, can now be accessed through www. email@example.com, and provides basic bespoke documents through a series of logic trees.
"You answer a variety of questions, press a button and you've got a privacy statement tailored to your re-quirements," says Eisenberg.
Be-Professional may be marketed to the SME sector and advisers to the SME sector, but Eisenberg is adamant that Berwin Leighton itself is not courting smaller businesses as clients for the firm. "We don't want SMEs as clients. Be-Professional is a separate business, it's not a way of attracting new clients," he says.
"Everyone's been talking about commoditisation and it's finally arrived."
Deloitte & Touche head of e-business Richard Punt says: "The key feature is that SMEs and start-up businesses no longer want information via the web. They want solutions to their business issues."
Berwin Leighton is convinced that Be-Professional can generate sufficient revenues as a business proposition, although Eisenberg is vague on exact figures.
"There are 3.7 million SMEs," he says. "If we get 1 per cent of them as customers by year two, and assume that the subscription fee is, say, £300 for a range of services, you can see the numbers."
But Eisenberg is reluctant to go into revenue projections. "Until the pricing is more definite, which is hard to do until the product is [fully launched], it's theoretical," he says.
"But it is more than just a hunch - we have done a lot of market research and we are satisfied there is a real demand."
Berwin Leighton and Deloittes have already built an alliance with WorldPay, the UK's largest e-commerce payment services provider, which has a strong share of the SME marketplace. Be-Professional will have automatic access to WorldPay's customers.
Legal E-services
The electronic frontier has become a new battleground for law firms trying to capitalise on the new economy.
Niche IP firm Briffa & Co has created an online shop with a range of detailed documents for sale not just to clients but to the public as well. Anyone can buy from their library of legal information.
The firm's managing partner Margaret Briffa says: "For us it's like a glorified business card. We can make contact with potential new clients."
Kemp & Co, which specialises in internet-related issues, targets its free information service at potential clients. Managing partner Richard Kemp says: "It's a good sales tool for us, it's credential setting. It draws people to us."
Larger firms are investing huge amounts into their web presence, offering online deal rooms, project monitoring and client/firm communication.
Linklaters & Alliance's Blue Flag offers a complex range of options, including report and contract generation and international jurisdiction documents, as does Clifford Chance's NextLaw. But Simmons & Simmons has taken a slightly different approach with Matchco.co.uk, which tries to bring entrepreneurs with good ideas together with backers, at the same time offering advice and support for those starting new projects.

What we came to notice in this first game is that the Ottawa Senators can hang in with the Pens, but definitely won't when it comes to the power play. If the Sens want to even have a chance they will either need to drastically improve the power play or score more on even strength. The Senators have been successful when scoring even strength and having Jason Spezza back would help both aspects of the Sens game.
Right off the bat it was clear that, the Senators cannot let the Penguins go on the power play too often as they capitalized on an early power play getting a goal from Paul Martin who scored with a slap shot from the point which hit off the post and into the net. A couple minutes later there was a scramble in front of the net and Colin Greening was planted in front of Thomas Vokoun. That paid off for him as he managed to muscle the puck past the goal line to tie the game at one. Slightly passed the half way point of the first period Evgeni Malking would get a pass from Chris Kunitz right at the door step who then banged it in to get the Penguins the one goal lead after one period.
The Second period was probably the Sens best period but just could not get anything passed Vokoun. Ottawa just couldn't get the right bounce to get anything into the Pens net. During a Pens power play near the end of the second period, Chris Kunitz would barely get a shot off towards Craig Anderson but Anderson couldn't quite get to it as it trickled into the net to give the Penguins the two goal lead after the second period.
After the Sens' comebacks in the Habs series you might think the Sens could get the chance to tie it up in this period and they got the chances with multiple power plays. But Ottawa just couldn't convert on anything in the 3rd period. It was a short handed goal from Pascal Dupuis that would end it all for the Sens, as he roofed the puck on Anderson to give the Pens the 4-1 lead. I'm sure after watching the Leafs game 7, Sens fans were probably thinking "hey a 4-1 lead isn't as safe as you would think!" But that just wasn't the case as 4-1 was the final for the night.
The Penguins goaltending was a little shaky most of the night but you know what, Thomas Vokoun made all the stops he should have made. It might not have been pretty but he got the job done stopping the Sens all night.
The Sens will look to tie it up on Friday night. Ottawa cannot go back home down 2 against the Pens, that just too dangerous they will need to bring a better game and get better quality shots against Thomas Vokoun and test him early. Game starts at 730 PM Friday night on CBC.

When it comes to promoting music, 99% of artists have the exact same strategy. No one stands out from the crowd. When everyone else is zigging, what are you doing with your music marketing strategy to zag?
Woody Allen famously said that eighty percent of success is showing up. This is especially true in the music industry. The reality is that there are opportunities everywhere. In the US, there are hundreds of thousands of people employed in the music industry, most of whom gather at industry conferences, such as CMJ, New Music Seminar, SF Music Tech Summit, TAXI Road Rally, and SXSW. Show up to those conferences and make a point of meeting people and building friends.
What is stopping you from creating a music business Meetup in your city? When you start creating events – be it dinners, conferences, or meetups, people begin to gravitate to you as the 'hub'. You become incredibly well connected, respected, and an important go-to person for others. Be that person for your music scene, it's easier than you think.
Your existing friends, family, and fans are the most valuable people you have when it comes to marketing – do not underestimate what they can do. If you asked every fan, friend, or family member if they know one person who might enjoy your music – or be able to help you find a gig, your calendar or fan base would grow/fill up very quickly. Try it.
When you support a cause, your fans are more likely to spread the word about your music. This is because fans see that it's helping a greater cause.
It also forces you into a mind-set where your focus is on "how can I do the most good with my music" opposed to "how can sell the most songs". The motivation and drive you get from the latter is much greater.
When you create a project on FanDistro, fans are given the option to donate 20% of any music sales that they refer to a charity. It's because of this that FanDistro campaigns tend to be shared virally – more people share your music because they see the greater good that it does.
It may seem counter-intuitive to spend your limited time helping other artists promote their music rather than your own, but being selfless and genuinely helpful is one of the best marketing strategies around.
There are a number of reasons for this – first of all, people often reciprocate favors. Secondly, other bands are gatekeepers to the contacts you need to meet (promoters, labels, journalists etc.). Finally, you will learn a lot by promoting others, which you can then apply to your situation.
When you speak to a potential sponsor, promoter, journalist, or whoever you should be considering 'what's in it for them'? If nothing, then you're relying on pure altruism to get what you want, which isn't as effective as we'd hope.
Instead, try to understand what motivates them and what would make a no-brainer offer. If you're looking to get a sponsorship deal with a local beer brand, how can you offer them 10x the value you're asking for? In other words, if they offer you $300 worth of free beer, how can you ensure that you'll offer them a $3,000 increase in their beer sales? When trying to get something from someone, make it a no-brainer.
Most artists don't go the extra mile like Amanda Palmer does. While you don't need to go as far as crashing at your fans' houses, there's a lot you can learn from her approach in terms of building genuine relationships with fans. Do something for you fans that 99% of artists aren't doing for theirs – whether that's spending the day with a handful of die-hard fans, or using a tool like Pledge Music to offer your fans unique experiences.
8. Ask for help
Finally, remember to ask for help. It sounds like common sense, but many artists are afraid to ask for help when it comes to promotion. There are a lot of people out there who would be willing to do you a favor – ask them for it.

This weekend's Bottom Line column:
The Philips Hue doesn't need anyone to call it the smartest bulb in the room. It already knows.
This Wi-Fi connected LED bulb, controllable and programmable from a smartphone app or website portal, can blink when you receive an email from your semester-abroad daughter, match the color of a room from a photograph, synchronize a multicolored light show with your music, turn on automatically when you enter the room at dusk or turn gray when it starts to rain or blue when UConn (or Yale) wins.
A Hue LED isn't particularly bright — only 600 lumens, or somewhere between a standard 40- and 60-watt incandescent bulb — but it's ridiculously smart and an eager learner.

The Three-Link Set-Up Another suspension type common on the racetrack but not seen very much on street cars, is the three-link. Historically, three-link suspensions have not been common with OEMs, but they have recently started showing up, most notably on the new '05 Mustang. Many racecars have won with this design, but there are not many choices for this in the aftermarket short of fabricating your own setup. One company that is working on a solution to this is Lateral Dynamics in Carlsbad, California, where mechanical engineer Katz Tsubai and owner Mark Magers have been hard at work making this design work in our classic cars. We asked Mark to give the quick explanation of what a three-link suspension is. Mark told PHR: "Three-link rigid axle suspension systems derive their name from the fact that the axle is located under the car with three trailing arms, in conjunction with either a Panhard bar or Watt's link to locate the axle assembly laterally. In virtually every case, there are two lower arms that connect under the axle assembly, and one upper link that is attached to the axle assembly in the middle, right above the pumpkin."
One big advantage to using a three-link: there's virtually no bind associated with the design. Each link has one job and one job only. The two lower links working together prevent the axle from skewing relative to the vehicle axis and the upper link is responsible for controlling pinion angle changes in bump and droop. This allows the system to be set up for whatever type of driving you plan on doing, whether it's drag racing, road racing, or a combination of the two. When we asked Mark and Katz why they chose the three-link approach, they said, "Whether we want to accept it or not, all suspension systems are faced with compromise; you simply cannot have everything in one system that you'd like to. You need to make choices as to what is most important. In our opinion, the three-link approach arguably offers the fewest high-performance compromises of any rigid axle suspension system. In addition to being very simple and highly tunable, the three-link also provides the lightest unsprung weight--in a rigid-axle suspension--relative to all other setups. These facts are the reasons that the fastest road race rigid-axle cars predominantly use this setup, such as today's Trans Am and SCCA GT1 cars."
Mark was quick to point out that, like all rear suspensions, the three-link also has a couple of pitfalls. The biggest downfall with a well-executed three-link application on early musclecars is packaging. A good three-link setup will usually require some intrusion between the rear seats in the interior of the car for the upper link, though this can be minimized, and a custom rear seat can be installed that will easily accommodate clearance requirements. A quality three-link system will also set you back a good stack of cash. Lateral Dynamics Mechanical Engineer Katz Tsubai also added this in regards to three-links: "Not all three-links, or any other suspension configuration for that matter, are created equal. These advantages and disadvantages not only show you inherent characteristics of each configuration, but also design possibilities and flexibilities. The suspension is only as good as how you can implement those possibilities into the design. For example, let's say someone decides to build a three-link. His design consists of 10-inch long upper and lower links, all three mounted level to the ground, with a 20-inch Panhard bar mounted above the third member. Technically, it's a three-link and there is no roll bind, but it is hardly a good suspension system. Engineering, design, and execution are just as important as the suspension configuration itself."
Independent Rear SuspensionIndependent rear suspension, or IRS, has been around on production cars for decades. It works in very much the same way as your front suspension does but without the steering provision. There are upper and lower control arms, along with a coil spring and shock. The main advantage an IRS has is its ability to react over uneven surfaces. Unlike a solid axle, the movement of the left wheel is not affected by the right wheel hitting a dip or bump, and visa versa. Several companies, including Heidt's and 21st Century Street Machines, offer rear IRS kits. We contacted Ed Bednar of 21st Century for his take on independent rear suspensions. When we asked Ed why he would steer a customer toward an IRS he said, "The real performance of a car and its suspension begins with the performance of the tire. In order to maximize the performance of the tire, as much of the tire contact patch as possible must be maintained with the road. The contact patch is maximized when the tire is vertical to the pavement. IRS geometry is designed to try and maximize the contact patch for overall performance." An IRS allows for greater control of camber settings in an effort to keep the tires as vertical as possible to the road surface. This ability to maximize the contact patch and to react 'independently' to pavement variations is why almost all modern sports cars run an IRS. Overall, the upside to this system is that you can get new-car ride and handling characteristics in your classic musclecar.
Down sides to IRS would be that they are expensive to buy, and in most cases, not very easy to install. They are also at a disadvantage when it comes to drag racing compared to their stronger solid-axle counterparts. According to Bruce Griggs of Griggs Racing, "In many cases people talk of the lower unsprung weight of an IRS system, however, they forget that the overall weight of the system usually negates the unsprung savings." More than a few owners of new Cobra Mustangs have found themselves swapping in solid-axle rear ends in place of the factory IRS since the IRS was hurting them so much at the drag strip. Again, picking the right system for how you will use the car is critical.
Truck Arms--The NASCAR FavoriteChances are, the only time you have seen a truck-arm style (aka center drive) rear suspension is if you looked under a NASCAR racer. Winston Cup, Busch Grand National, Craftsman Truck, and IROC drivers have been tweaking this technology for the last 30 years. Hot Rods To Hell, in Burbank, California, has been retrofitting classic cars to center drive technology for over 10 years, so we hit them up for their insight on this system. HRTH had this to say, "To start with, a truck-arm suspension cannot bind under any type of condition. The suspension stays supple, the arms converge on an actual instant center and, because of their length, they remain neutral throughout bump, droop, and roll travel. The axle travels straight up and down so the wheelbase also remains constant. Your driveshaft slip yoke barley moves, and torque-induced chassis twist is eliminated. Also, the chassis is no longer being pushed around from the rear outer extremities by short little links, or the front half of leaf springs." HRTH also mentioned that the system eliminates wheel hop and is fully adjustable. These adjustments allow you to set the ride height and still maintain a level Panhard rod.
To find out a bit more about how a truck-arm suspension works, we hit up suspension specialist Kurt Binkley for his take. Kurt works for PPC Racing, which handles the cars for Kenny Wallace, John Andretti, and Craftsman Truck Series driver, Terry Cook. In Kurt's words, "Well, the standing joke is that all NASCAR cars are basically '67 Chevy trucks with headers and an aero-package!" Kurt went on to explain how the truck-arm suspension works, "The truck arm is an I-beam arrangement that pivots on a mounting point just aft of the trans tailshaft and is hard-mounted to the axle. There are various ends used at the forward mounting point depending on racetrack distance. The adjustable Panhard rod allows the opposite sides to be set for proper handling at various tracks. Coil springs rest in pockets on top of the truck arm, just forward of the axle. The upper pockets have a vertically adjustable plate that can compress or decompress the spring to change the ride height for specific tracks and conditions. When a driver comes into the pits and the pit crew adds or removes height, they are adjusting this plate up or down." This design allows for quick fine-tuning of the suspension, including the pinion angle, by the NASCAR mechanics. When we asked Kurt why NASCAR continues to use this technology he said, "It's required that we run this type. NASCAR is still old school." It also can be argued that this setup gets the job done on some of the fastest racecars around.
According to mechanical engineer Katz Tsubai, "The pros of a truck arm suspension are stable IC location, good roll steer characteristics, and good yaw response. This results in consistent behavior under both acceleration and braking. As for downsides, he points out the overall weight of the system, both sprung and unsprung, is quite high. Also, since the trailing links are rigidly mounted on the axle, components must elastically deflect in order for the suspension to roll. Try visualizing the whole suspension system as a giant anti-roll bar, with the axle assembly being the bar and trailing links being arms. You can see why the system restrains the roll." It should also be noted that running a full exhaust system with this type of rear suspension is quite a challenge due to how much real estate the components eat up under the car.

Hyatt Hotel & Casino Manila Sold to Investor, Casino Still in Expansion
Property tycoon Cheng Yu-tung has quietly entered the Philippine gambling market in a big way
Property tycoon Cheng Yu-tung has quietly entered the Philippine gambling market in a big way, snapping up the prestigious Hyatt Hotel & Casino Manila. According to Philippine government officials and corporate registration documents obtained by The Standard, the New World Development chairman's family, which controls the New World conglomerate and the Chow Tai Fook jewellery chain, is the owner of the new Hyatt Hotel & Casino Manila.
Once fully developed, the casino is to be the largest in the country, according to the hotel's press announcement.
Neither Hyatt nor Cheng's investment company would confirm the family's involvement.
Their reticence may reflect Cheng's desire to avoid being publicly linked to a project that played a role in a scandal involving former Philippine president Joseph Estrada and a business partner of casino tycoon Stanley Ho in the run-up to Estrada's overthrow three years ago.
At the time, Ho became the target of outrage in the Philippines, despite the fact that he was never implicated in the scandal.
Cheng is a director and major shareholder of Sociedad de Turismo e Diversoes de Macau (STDM), the firm controlled by Ho that operated as Macau's casino monopoly for 42 years. Ho is also president of Sociedad de Jogos de Macau, the STDM subsidiary that now operates the company's 12 casinos.
Gaming in the Philippines is a monopoly business, controlled by the government-run Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp, or Pagcor.
Pagcor operates and staffs the new Hyatt casino as it does all casinos in the Philippines. But the Cheng family owns the gaming equipment and the premises and receives 40 per cent of casino revenue as rent, according to Pagcor spokesman Edward King.
``The advantage of this arrangement is we don't carry the risk,'' King said.
Risk is significant because the project's development dragged on for years through several changes of ownership. Sheraton Hotels, originally hired to manage the hotel, announced when it won the contract for the project that the hotel would open in 1999.
The first phase of the casino opened without fanfare in April, but the hotel only began taking guests just three weeks ago and its first restaurant will only open this month.
Spokeswoman Sharon Samarista said the hotel, which will eventually have 378 rooms and is located in the centre of Manila's Ermita tourist district, will hold its grand opening in December. Though the casino and hotel are part of a 94,000-square metre office and retail complex called Marina Square, King said that nothing else is open yet.
Because of construction delays, Pagcor has held off opening more of the casino, King said. The casino features 30 gaming tables and 309 slot machines but is to eventually offer 123 tables and 606 machines spread over four floors, according to the hotel's announcement.
Samarista would identify the hotel's owner only as New Coast Hotel.
New Coast's corporate filings with the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission list CTF Hotel and Entertainment as the owner of all but five of its 621.4 million shares.
Henry Cheng, who is Cheng Yu-tung's oldest son and also managing director of New World Development and a director of Chow Tai Fook Enterprises, holds one share and is listed as president of New Coast.
Until last year, New Coast was owned by Megaworld, a company publicly listed in the Philippines. Megaworld's 2003 annual report put the value of the company's investment in the overall Marina Square project at 836.1 million pesos (HK$115.7 million) and said the investment was sold at carrying value.
Megaworld sold the Marina Square project in 1999 to a company called BW Resources. Late that year, Ho bought a 10 per cent stake in BW Resources and became its chairman, grandly announcing plans to open a floating casino and other ventures under the BW flag.

Jeff Goodman at ESPN is reporting that Jordan Clarkson is going to forego his senior year, for the Missouri Tigers, and declare eligible for the NBA draft.
Missouri's Jordan Clarkson is headed to the NBA, sources told ESPN: http://t.co/wyHK5AzFnh
— Jeff Goodman (@GoodmanESPN) March 31, 2014
Clarkson started his career at Tulsa in 2010. After averaging 16 points in his sophomore season he decided to transfer and come be a point guard for Frank Haith at Missouri. He had to sit out all of the 2012-2013 season for transferring.
This year Clarkson averaged 17 points a game and set a game high 31 against Southern Illinois. He averaged 3.4 assists per game with 2.7 turnovers. His turnovers down the stretch are a big reason that Missouri missed the NCAA tournament this year.
Gary Parrish at CBS Sports has Jordan Clarkson predicted to go 55 in the draft. If this is where he ends up going then he is making a mistake. With Earnest Ross graduating this year, Clarkson could come back and move into a scoring position and have Wes Clark being the primary point guard. It would give a great chance to show that he can use his left hand more, which is his main weakness right now as a shooting guard.
The Tigers will now wait to find out if Jabari Brown is going to come back for his senior season. They have already lost 2 of there top 3 scorers in Clarkson and Ross. If Brown declares for the draft then the Tigers will lose all 3 of their double digit scorers. That would make Jonathon WIlliams III the highest scoring returning player at 5 points per game.

IT'S OFFICIAL – Aaron Cruden will play for the Chiefs next year.
He will also be joined at the Hamilton-based franchise by Manawatu teammate and lock Michael FitzGerald.
Cruden's future had been the subject of much speculation in recent times following the fallout from Hurricanes coach Mark Hammett's decision to dump All Blacks Ma'a Nonu and Andrew Hore.
However, it was always believed the six-test All Blacks pivot would join his Manawatu and former New Zealand Under 20 mentor Dave Rennie in Hamilton, as the two have a good working relationship.
"It's been an extremely difficult decision to make," he says.
"It was my long-standing relationship with Renns that swayed things the Chiefs way. It's going to be a challenge, but one I am looking forward to now.
"I wish the Hurricanes well for the 2012 campaign and beyond."
FitzGerald is another Manawatu player who is set to make his Super Rugby debut for the Chiefs next season.
"I'm really excited about the opportunity to play for the Chiefs, but focused on performing well for the Turbos first," he says.
Rennie is happy both his Manawatu charges have decided to sign with the franchise.
"We are absolutely rapt that Aaron has committed to the Chiefs. He's a top man, a quality player and a leader.
"Fitzy was one of the best-performing locks in last year's ITM Cup. He's a very good athlete, has an outstanding work-ethic and is prepared to do a lot of the grunt work."« Back to Archives

Pressure is on Benji, but shouldn't we remember SBW went to France (Toulon) for 2 years to learn the game.
With all of the news around concussion do you think there should be safety measures in place for players to ensure they don't play on after a head know? How and who should police that?
With the start of club rugby upon us, how can we maintain the value of the clubs in player pathways and community spirit.

In a press conference held by Pierre Gauthier mere moments before this afternoon's game against the Los Angeles Kings, the General Manager of the Montreal Canadiens announced that the Russian defenseman had suffered yet another setback in his road to recovery, and that he will have to have yet another surgery on his right knee.
The arthroscopic surgery will be performed to scope Markov's oft-injured knee and clear it of debris that has been causing swelling. As it was speculated during the week, when Markov did not accompany the team on their trip to San Jose, the defenseman instead redirected to Los A...
Los Angeles, California
The Montreal Canadiens are used to playing Saturday night games in primetime. Well primetime in Los Angeles is noon and no other games are on tap for the afternoon. So once again the league has given the Habs the marquee spot.
Marquee spots are usually given to good teams, to teams who have superstars and to teams who have a chance at the Cup. The Montreal Canadiens are a team with none of those attributes.
The Los Angeles Kings, on the other hand, are ready for primetime. They have stars up front and stars on the back end. In the wildly competitive Western c...
Do The Players Want Martin Fired?
After coming off a lackluster display in a loss in Anaheim, the Montreal Canadiens put in a better effort. They skated hard, they hit harder and overall they played a better game. But in the end it was the same defensive mistakes that lead to another loss.
It was all going to plan with less than two minutes left in the game. Goals from Michael Cammalleri, David Desharnais were countered by markers from Jamie McGinn and Logan Couture. Both teams showed off a free flowing style of play making me wonder if the Habs would fit the Western conference better.
It was nice t...
The Montreal Canadiens were in Anaheim last night, and the results could not have been more dissapointing for this struggling club.
After going up early in the first period with a big goal by Andrei Kostitsyn, the Canadiens threw it all away, letting Getzlaf score his first goal in 15 games seconds before the buzzer went off to signal the players into the first intermission. Easily put, the Habs lost control in that instant.
Two of Anaheim's three power houses who were accused of under-achieving this season snapped out of their blank state of mind and each collected 3 points last night. Corey Perry and Ryan Getzlaf were easily the difference makers and it...
The Montreal Canadiens are far away from home tonight, they have arrived in California to take on the struggling Anaheim Ducks.
What makes this match up interesting is that both team are looking for a win to give them some momentum. The Ducks are looking to get out of the basement of the western conference and the Habs are looking for a win tonight to give themselves some spark to start off their road trip.
There isn't too much to say about tonight's match up other than both teams desperately need this win. The Ducks have lost seven straight leading up to tonight's game and they are not getting the production up front that they are used to. ...
The Shanhammer has officially dropped on Montreal Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty.
We talked about it on Saturday night, and the general consensus was that Pacioretty would likely sit a few games, following a dangerous hit on Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman and Quebec native Kris Letang.
Late in the third period, Letang came streaking up the ice with a Pens winger, cut across the high slot after the blueline, and wound up for a shot at the net. Pacioretty cut through in the opposite direction, looking for a hit. Unfortunately, Letang was hunched forward and looking elsewhere, and got a face-full of shoulder that would go on to break his nose...
We should probably preface all of this by declaring that, outside of Carey Price, the Montreal Canadiens probably didn't deserve to win tonight (Jeez, haven't heard THAT before, eh?).
The Habs played a sloppy and inconsistent game against Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins at the Bell Centre tonight, and the end result was a 4-3 overtime loss against what was obviously a better team.
That's what should have been the game story following tonight's game. Instead, we're left to sift through the wreckage of the hockey equivalent of a nuclear missile. No, the story of tonight's game wasn't Carey Price's amaz...
Montreal, Quebec
The Pittsburgh Penguins and the Montreal Canadiens will both play their 24th games tonight. The season is over quarter of the way over. The newness of the season, the apprehension of how the new players will fit in and the tension of how each team will start is over. Now it's time to honestly look at the team and see exactly where each stands.
I am sure you have heard this before but to start with we must remember that the Penguins have been without the league's best player, Sidney Crosby, for most of the season. The Habs have been without Andrei Markov and a slew of secon...
After the first period it appeared as though the Philadelphia Flyers were in for another long night.
That of course was before Claude Giroux took control of the game.
Claude Giroux scored two goals for the Philadelphia Flyers to beat the Habs on the afternoon after Thanksgiving.
The first period was a lackluster affair as both teams were looking for their legs after having their Thanksgiving dinners. Less than three minutes into the game the Habs got called for one of their infamous too many men penalties. In true Hab fashion this season it was killed off with hardly any shots recorded on Carey Price. Nokelainen scored his first goal as a member of the Canadiens near the end of the first with assists going to Hal Gill and Josh Gorges...yes it was that kind of afternoon. The shots in the first period was 10-4 in favour of the Habs-.

Biology is taking its place among future defense technologies with a new DARPA office called the Biological Technology Office. It will apply the tools of engineering and related disciplines to biological systems to design next-generation technologies.
BTO will explore the intersection of biology with the other physical sciences to develop technology for U.S. national security, according to a DARPA statement. Its programs will operate across a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. These include from individual cells to humans and other organisms and the communities in which they operate, and "from the time it takes for a nerve to fire to the time it may take a new virus to spread around the world one sneeze at a time," the agency said.
The office will continue the work of the agency's Defense Sciences Office and Microsystem Technology Office in fields such as neuroscience, sensor design, microsystems and computer science.
"The Biological Technologies Office will advance and expand on a number of earlier DARPA programs that made preliminary inroads into the bio-technological frontier," said Geoff Ling, the first director of BTO. "We've been developing the technological building blocks, we've been analyzing our results, and now we're saying publicly to the research and development community, 'We are ready to start turning the resulting knowledge into practical tools and capabilities."
The BTO will concentrate on three research goals:
Restore and maintain warfighter abilities. BTO seeks new discoveries that help maintain peak warfighter abilities and heal injured service members through autonomous diagnostics and new therapies as well as advanced prosthetics and neural interfaces.
Harness biological systems. BTO seeks to uncover and apply rules governing biological systems to engineering new systems and products with novel materials and functionality.
Apply biological complexity at scale. BTO will also investigate the complexity and living-system dynamics of biological systems with the goal of developing applications to improve health, understand disease migration and secure food sources.

With the rise of experimentation in "serious gaming," George Mason University and Prince William County opened the new Simulation and Game Institute on the school's Prince William campus last week.
A public-private partnership in game design and simulation, SGI is the only institution of its kind on the East Coast, and one of only four global affiliated facilities focused on entrepreneurship into serious gaming. The facility offers high-quality game design, research and development, simulation and game training and certification in addition to visualization and simulation software and rapid-prototyping development.
"The world is changing quickly. In the innovation economy, "high value industries of the mind" are creating the well-paid jobs of the future," George Mason CEO Dr. Annie Hunt Burriss said. "Together, George Mason University and Prince William County, with our community partners, are creating a great new industry and jobs that Americans want."
The George Mason University foundation secured the institute's establishment in October 2013 with $32,000 from the Prince William County Economic Development Opportunity Fund. Companies chosen to reside at the institute will receive business assistance services from the Prince William County Department of Economic Development.

Penn State will hold an auction for intellectual property, where winners will receive licensing rights to patents derived from faculty research in the College of Engineering, according to a university statement.
The auction will be the first of its kind in the United States to be directly overseen by a university, and will take place from March 31 to April 11. University officials believe this auction will be the first of many.
"Penn State and other research universities typically have IP that has been marketed by their tech transfer offices but for a variety of reasons has not been picked up by a commercial entity and therefore sits on the proverbial shelf," said Penn State Associate Vice President for Research and Technology Transfer Ron Huss. "This auction is an effort to get our IP off of the shelf and in the hands of companies that can use the technology, at very favorable terms and price points. The buyers get the rights to use the IP, and the University gets a financial return. It's a win-win situation."
The Intellectual Property Auction Website -- I-PAW -- is now accessible at http://patents.psu.edu/ so that interested parties can view available IP, create an account and pre-register for the auction.
But selling patents is not the sole purpose of the auction. Penn State Interim Vice President for Research Neil Sharkey said the idea was chosen in part to raise awareness of the University's licenses whose commercial applications could prove extremely valuable.
There will be about 70 engineering patents available for auction in fields such as acoustics, fuel cells and sensors. Many of the required minimum bids will be around $5,000. Beyond the patents currently on auction, users can browse Penn State invention patents that are available for licensing through the Office of Technology Management.

With tax day just around the corner, the IRS has added new features to its IRS2Go mobile application, which provides users with tax tips and tools to navigate key IRS services.
Taxpayers can now check the status of their federal income tax refund using their Apple or Android mobile device. They can access the information by entering their Social Security number, filing status and the amount of their anticipated refund from their 2013 tax return.
Users who filed a return electronically can check their refund status within 24 hours after the return is received. The update also allows users to request their tax return or account transcript, which they will receive in the mail.
In addition to IRS2Go, the IRS is moving rapidly to adopt electronic and social media services to assist taxpayers and lower the cost overhead of traditional customer services. Currently, the IRS has channels up and going for taxpayer tips and information on YouTube, Twitter and Facebook.
The federal government has been successful in getting a return on these investments in IRS electronic services, according to a recent report by Accenture. Of 147.6 million tax returns that were filed in September 2012, 113.8 million (77 percent) were done online, it said.
The IRS2Go smartphone app in particular was a key reason for the agency's success with e-services, according to Accenture, which put the value of potentially fraudulent refunds avoided by using the app at $4.2 billion.
The IRS first launched IRS2Go in January 2011. Within two months, 110,000 iPhone users and 135,000 Android users had downloaded the app. Total cost of the in-house development: $50,000, spent mostly for security features.

"We want to continue to move the needle in a forward way and, very importantly, on the field of competition." – Mike Thomas
Those words will resonate with Illinois football fans. Tim Beckman, entering his third season at the helm of the Fighting Illini squad, knows what this season means to him, to his future as a coach, and to the future of the team. The records may not show it, but fans are looking at what is going on between January and August, and they see things on the upswing.
Recruiting is gaining momentum. Guys are beginning to have the desire to stay in state. Beckman is finding the right guys to help coach, and there was a large improvement last season compared to Beckman's first season.
With things looking better than two years ago, what does that mean for Tim Beckman's future? How hot of a seat is he on in Champaign this season? These questions are hard to answer honestly.
What do fans want to see? Wins, plain and simple. The fans want to watch a game in December or January. Fans want to have a reason to fill the stands in fifteen degree weather. (For a segue, there is no reason why our stadium should be as empty as it has been in recent memory, but I digress…).
When people say that things are looking better than Coach Beckman's first year, they are fully aware that going from two to four wins is not that much fun, simply because you are still losing quite a few games. However, when you look at the numbers, there is promise.
For instance, in 2013, the Illini did not get beat as badly in most of their games. It is a silver lining, and a small one at that, but it is something. If you look at how the team produced on the field in 2012 versus 2013, you can see that Beckman is getting his team to play with much better chemistry, with passion, and with intelligence. That says a lot, as 2012 at times was very hard to watch.
People do not give Beckman as much credit as he deserves for the turnaround in 2013. 2012 was a mess, but Coach is getting this thing turned around.
If you want to talk about his "hot seat" in 2014, you can honestly expect a couple things: if he starts off with anything less than a 3-1 record, people will start talking; if Beckman has any more mental errors, i.e. The Red Man Apocalypse, people will definitely start talking.
This season and Beckman's seat will all come down to how he handles adversity. This team has the ability to go 3-1 at minimum with a pretty favorable non conference schedule. The Big Ten schedule, while not a cakewalk, shows me four wins, getting the Illini in to a bowl game for the first time since 2011. It may not be a January Bowl Game, but if Becks wins six or seven games and garners a bowl berth, he will, and should, be back in 2015.
If, and that is a big if, Beckman gets to four or five wins and misses out on bowl play, it will likely be a toss up in regards to his future. Some fans, like me, want to see him there a couple more years unless he takes a big step back, to keep the familiarity of the system for the student athletes.
That said, if the team lays an egg this upcoming season, all bets are off and I can see anything happening, but that is unlikely. This team will be better than most expect them to be, and the division is winnable if the cards fall the right way.
Maybe my blind optimism as a fan clouds my judgment, but this team will get seven wins minimum in 2014. (That's right, Dad. Seven wins. It's in print now.)
So how hot is Beckman's seat? It is warm right now. It is ninety degrees today. Every seat in Illinois is hot. Support your coach, fans. Things are showing signs of life. Trust your coaches. It is a bit more fun than being negative all the time. As of today, we have the same record as Alabama and Florida State, so there are reasons to smile.

When carried out correctly, a room filled with tension makes for an exciting atmosphere.
Stay away from creating an impression that you have everything you want. There is a sheen of dust over the majority of your apartment pieces and it is clear that you are no longer striving for the betterment of your space. Your one-time desires are now plainly unnecessary, and thus, uninteresting to the viewer. Your guests are being entertained in your apartment, and this complacency often leaves them feeling as if all the potential energy has leaked out of the room with absent-minded design purchases.
Let your inner rawness show.
The more vulnerable you are with your apartment furnishings, the more honest you are being with your guests. Each piece should be a reflection of a distinct moment in your life. The energy it took to make each purchase immediately gives off a more powerful presence. A room filled with tangible examples of your dedication and long-term achievements exudes confidence.
It is still acceptable to lust after objects, even in our recession-altered reality. Still, you must be discerning in your taste. Lust equates vivacity, this is why you should not shy away from your dreams. Instead of filling empty space with an item you don't fully believe in, leave it open as a glaring example of where you plan to execute your design strategy. It makes no difference that you haven't reached your goal (yet), your friends will appreciate your motivated honesty and will likely reciprocate by revealing their very own closely-held desires.
Now you've created a lively discussion on what your design goals are and how you plan to achieve them. You've reinvigorated not only your passion to succeed in attaining your goals, but you've also ignited the desire for your guests to attain their own dreams.
Always strive to be the catalyst for the betterment of your guests lives.
I always advocate being the consummate host. You should prepare for a party by purchasing correct quantities of alcohol and hor d'oeuvres, cleaning the apartment and setting aside a well-thought out selection of records to play throughout the night.
While people will be appreciative of your good taste and consideration, you've likely left out one crucial component. The cigarettes.
I know, I know…cigarettes are terrible for your health and no one wants nicotine stains in their apartment. Understood, but that doesn't mean you should let your opinions on tobacco affect someone else's night. Control the cigarette scene by staying out in front of it.
Step one, always have a pack of Nat Sherman cigarettes on hand for those who choose to smoke. These fine cigarettes make it difficult for even the most ardent anti-cigarette crusader to rebuff.
Having an open pack laying on your dining room table could be considered tacky. Step two, buy a vintage silver cigarette case. Now you should feel confident displaying the cigarettes (I would also recommend leaving a pack of nice wooden matches along side the case) and people will be more at ease to ask if they may have one. The kind gesture means your appreciative friends will be more willing to follow your smoking protocol.
"May I have a cigarette?"
This is the question you've been waiting for. You can now dictate where you'd like them to smoke and where you want the cigarette butts put out. Thus you've avoided those awkward social missteps smokers often make when they furtively smoke in an off-limit area because they are embarrassed to ask where to light up.
It may be your party, but your guests make it fun. Be a helpful guide for your party and everyone will end up happier for it.

1. Your apartment is a set. Always be prepared for it to be photographed and shared via social networks.
2. The best question ever asked is, "who is this song by?" Never forget the importance of a well cultivated playlist.
3. Anything you set out in your apartment will be judged. Do you really want to be known for having old j. crew catalogs sitting on your coffee table?
4. Cheap magazines equate a lack of taste and hygiene. If you do need to purchase a sports illustrated, make sure it is thrown away before the pages begin to curl.
5. DVDs, more than anything else, date you. Don't let your high school film dalliances color the way acquaintances view you now.
6. It's obvious when you've bought a coffee table book, for that reason have an explanation ready for every book and be sure to have at least 4 on the table at all times
7. 1 coffee table book is an afterthought, 4 means you spent time curating the look
8. Don't ever allow your television to dominate a room.
9. For that matter, make sure your television is tasteful in its proportions. No one is impressed by a 52" television playing ESPN. No one is impressed by a 52" TV period.
10. Buy a weekend edition Financial Times. And leave it out. When friends come over on Saturday, you immediately hold the intellectual upper hand.
11. Hide your cords. No matter the cost.
12. Your bathroom is one of the most viewed rooms in your apartment. Remember, your friends spend a minute alone in there with only your toiletries, and shower curtain to look at.
13. A dirty bathroom, means a dirty person.
14. Head and shoulders is a nice way to prove your nonchalant manliness, but please, close the cap.
15. If you must drink Bud Light, do it at the bar. In your refrigerator should only be high quality six packs. Removed from the box. Lined up straight.
16. Dust your apartment regularly. People notice and appreciate spotless windowsills.
17. The Bose iPod Speaker system is ugly. I don't care how convenient it is.
18. A white wall is better than a white wall with a movie poster on it.
19. If you must put up a poster. Wait, check that. Never put up a poster.
20. Artwork is difficult for a reason. Be prepared to wait until you find the perfect piece. And then buy it at whatever cost.
21. A cheap chef's knife immediately destroys any culinary credibility.
22. Would you ever fill up that goblet of a wine glass? No. So why do you own it? All wine glasses should be of a size that fits a formal dinner.
23. You've graduated college, it's time to buy a nice flatware set.
24. You've graduated college part 2, please throw away all plastic cups. That's not nostalgia you feel, it's complacency. And above all, they make every drink taste bad.
25. Make your bed.
26. Change your sheets weekly.
27. Change your towels weekly.
28. Always have fresh hand towels available. Otherwise people will seek out your personal towel to dry their hands. Do you want to dry off in that the next morning?
29. Don't ever let yourself depend on computer speakers. It proves you aren't prepared to host.
30. Keep fresh fruit on hand at all times.
31. Plastic bottled water is bad for the environment. If you must, be sure it's glass bottled water, and be sure it's sparkling.
32. It was expected that you would graduate from college. Keep your diploma in a safe place. Away from your guests eyes.
33. Your book shelf will start most of your interesting conversations. Don't let it get uninteresting.
34. Cut the chord. Control your media intake. People will appreciate the seriousness with which you choose programming.
35. Don't be afraid to grow plants in your house. They add life and people assume you are responsible. Aren't you responsible?
