World Juniors: Red Wings' prospect Mantha leads Canada over Germany
Dec 26, 2013, 5:56 PM EST
The Detroit Red Wings had to like what they saw from Anthony Mantha.
Mantha, taken with the 20th overall pick by the Red Wings in the 2013 NHL Draft, scored a hat trick and Team Canada skated to a 7-2 victory over Germany in their opening game of the 2014 IIHF World Junior Championship on Thursday.
Mantha plays for the Val-d'Or in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, with 35 goals and 73 points in 32 games. His scoring touch continued against Germany, a team Canada was expected to beat. And he also seemed to build some chemistry with Jonathan Drouin, selected third overall in June's draft by the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Drouin assisted on all three of Mantha's goals.
"He can score goals, but there are other aspects of his game he needs to continue to work on," said Canada's head coach Brent Sutter about Mantha, as per The Canadian Press. "Things I've talked to him about one on one.
"It's simple. It's being a competitor in all three zones and making sure he's responsible in all three zones. Not just for this tournament, but for him to be a good pro. Especially with the organization he'll go to in Detroit. That's what they expect there. You can't just play the offensive side of the puck."
The U.S. started its tournament with a 5-1 victory over the Czech Republic, getting goals from five different scorers. Calgary Flames goalie prospect Jon Gillies made 23 for the win.
"It says a lot about our team to have five different scorers," Gillies told NHL.com. "We're clicking and all lines are going. It was a great team win."
Buffalo Sabres forward Mikhail Grigorenko had three points – a goal and two assists – in Russia's 11-0 thumping of Norway.

Sonnet LXVI: The Night-Flood Rakes
The night-flood rakes upon the stony shore;
Along the rugged cliffs and chalky caves
Mourns the hoarse Ocean, seeming to deplore
All that are buried in his restless waves—
Mined by corrosive tides, the hollow rock
Falls prone, and rushing from its turfy height,
Shakes the broad beach with long-resounding shock,
Loud thundering on the ear of sullen Night;
Above the desolate and stormy deep,
Gleams the wan Moon, by floating mist opprest;
Yet here while youth, and health, and labour sleep,
Alone I wander—Calm untroubled rest,
"Nature's soft nurse," deserts the sigh-swoln breast,
And shuns the eyes, that only wake to weep!

Anime is a form of animation that originated from Japan and has become popular with Western audiences as well. The love for anime often leads fans to collect anime figurines or nendoroids (chibi versions). These kinds of figures are modeled after anime characters, which are commonly characterized by their big eyes and emotional facial expressions.
|Source: Pinterest
Collecting anime figurines has become a hobby for a lot of people. These are collected from all over the world since there may be some which are available in one part but not on another. Some are even in limited or special edition which makes collectors crave for them even more.
Some people say collecting anime figurines is a fun hobby. Others say it is just a waste of money. Though non-anime fans and non-collectors often wonder how it is fun, here are some of the reasons why some people love to collect these.
|Source: Pinterest
For the love of anime
Many people who collect anime figurines are interested in the anime or manga and not really on the action figure itself. They love to collect figurines of characters from a specific anime merely because they love these characters. They find joy to see their favorite characters just within their reach.
|Source: Pinterest
Just for the sake of collecting
Collectors collect simply because they love owning something interesting and unusual. Considering the fact that anime has become very popular, a lot of special editions become available in some parts of the world. One of the many goals as a collector is to possess something rare and valuable, which then leads them to collecting these figurines.
For decoration
Anime figurines are used as room decorations as well since they are interesting to look at. They look really beautiful most especially if placed on cases that are specially designed to hold collectibles. Since anime has a variety of genre, so does its figurines. Some are more suited to be displayed on a child's bedroom. These may be figurines from child-friendly anime shows. Men can choose mecha-themed or sports-related figurines to be displayed on their room. There are also figurines from romantic and other girly kinds of anime to be used as decorations by the ladies.
|Source: Pinterest
To play
These things may be cool to collect but they are basically just toys. People collect action figures to play with. Some would buy them to give to children who will. Since anime has become popular with a wide variety of audiences, people who own anime figurines play with them to imitate what they saw on the show. Playing with anime figurines also provide outlet for imagination.
|Source: Pinterest
For potential profit
Though these figurines may just seem to be just for decoration or just something to play with, these may be something of monetary value in the future. Some companies discontinue producing a certain anime figurine. As time passes, the value for discontinued figurines may rise since these can never be bought elsewhere in the world anymore. Other collectors would be willing to pay another collector just to own the discontinued figurine. In some other cases, these figurines can be used for trade.
|Source: Pinterest
Because of peers
Another reason for collecting anime figurines is because everyone else is doing it. Anime fans are mostly active in anime clubs, groups, events and conventions. Most of those who are active in such gatherings do collect anime figurines. A person may be influenced to also do the same because the hobby has interests him, or it could be that a person would start collecting just so they have something in common with the rest of his peers.
There may be a lot more other reasons as to why collectors and anime fans love collecting anime figurines. These reasons may not be easily understood by people who neither like anime nor collecting. But whatever the reason may be, they find love and beauty in what they are doing.

With regret over the loss of life throughout and after the 2003 Iraq war, former British Prime Minister Tony Blair has changed his tune of condolence, saying his historically unapologetic statements defending the war were misinterpreted.
AP / Hadi Mizban
Vice President Joe Biden expressed his personal regrets to Iraqi leaders and promised that the U.S. will appeal the dismissal of manslaughter charges against five Blackwater security contractors over a bloody Baghdad shooting in 2007 that killed 17 people.
AP / Sebastian Scheiner
In a strong rebuke of Israeli policy, the White House has expressed "regret" over an announcement by Israel that it will expand its illegal settlements in Palestinian areas. Hundreds of new housing units are expected to be approved for construction in the West Bank in a move seen as placating the rightists in power.
It was nothing Bush did—no decision he made, no policy he pursued, no faith that he placed in ideological dogma—that he finds regrettable. Bush told a cable network, "I regret saying some things I shouldn't have said" over the course of eight tumultuous years.
Hassan Nasrallah, the head of Hezbollah, said in a Lebanese TV interview that he would not have ordered the kidnapping of Israeli soldiers had he known the scale of violence that was to follow. If he had it to do all over again, Nasrallah said, with a 1% chance that Israel would respond as it did, he would say: "No, definitely not, for humanitarian, moral, social, security, military and political reasons."
The military's former top operations officer expresses regret that he did not more closely question the rationale for invading Iraqi, and urges active-duty officers to speak out.

Qantas drops order for 35 Boeing 787-9s
The troubled Australian airline is keeping options for 50 of the larger Dreamliners, and moving those forward.
Seattle Times aerospace reporter
Troubled Australian airline Qantas announced Wednesday that it has canceled firm orders for 35 Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners.
Those jets are worth $8.5 billion at list prices, though according to market data provided by aircraft valuation firm Avitas their true value after typical discounts is about $4.6 billion.
The Qantas announcement followed its disclosure of a $256 million loss for the year ended June 30.
Qantas softened the blow to Boeing by stating that it will retain, and bring forward by two years, purchase rights and options for 50 787-9s. If those purchase rights are converted later into firm orders, they would start delivery in 2016.
But even then, that would be a two-year delay compared to the previously planned first delivery of the 787-9 to Qantas.
"The B787 is an excellent aircraft and remains an important part of our future," Qantas chief executive Alan Joyce said in a statement. "However, circumstances have changed significantly since our order several years ago."
The airline still has an order for 15 of the original Dreamliner model, the 787-8, on its books. Joyce said those jets will begin delivery in the second half of next year and will be operated by Qantas subsidiary Jetstar for intra-Asia regional air travel.
The larger 787-9s are intended for long-range, international Qantas flights. Joyce's restructuring strategy calls for big reductions in near-term spending on the long-haul fleet. In May, Qantas deferred delivery of two giant Airbus A380 jets by three and four years.

My boyfriend and I are planning a skiing holiday in North Tahoe but I'm really confused about how to organise it. There seem to be "resorts", like Squaw Valley and Northstar, which refers to the actual area on which you ski; and some resorts run their own hotels and lessons (like Northstar) but you can also choose to stay in a smaller hotel (like the Mourelatos Lakeshore in Squaw Valley, for instance) - and sort out your own lessons from a different company - is that right?
What is the advantage of staying at a resort - is it the 'Village'? Is it closer to the slopes? Is it just easier because you can get everything you need at one place, like lift passes, renting equipment and booking lessons?
Basically I'm looking for a cheap-as-possible holiday where I can have some beginners' lessons and get some practise in - I'm not bothered about staying in a big hotel with lots of amenities (although perhaps I should be?) I've never skied; my boyfriend has done it twice.
All advice welcome! This is going to be a really expensive holiday so I'm trying to make sure I make the best choices, but it's proving really difficult when I have never been to a ski resort before…
Thank you
Best place to stay in North Tahoe for beginner skiers?

We like to stay at the Squaw Valley Lodge. The location is very convenient to both the hill and the village.
Probably there are basic motels in Truckee that are cheaper if you don't mind driving to the hill every day.
Generally, you can only take lessons from the ski resorts themselves. Sometimes they have beginner packages that include lessons, lift tickets, and rentals that are less expensive that buying those things separately.
Report Abuse
As far as I recall - all of the ski resorts at the North Shore have ski schools and beginner areas. (Squaw, Alpine, Northstar, Incline - Mt. Rose). And the closer you stay to the slopes - the more expensive.
You might consider renting gear in town - or at least compare the prices v. renting from a shop on the mountain - or as part of a package - lessons and equip.

Kate, First of all, skiing is expensive. There is no way around that. But having said that, there is expensive and then there is really expensive. On top of that beginners that don't know the ins and outs can and usually do all the wrong things that make the expense largely wasted. (Don't get me wrong, I grew up in Colorado skiing and love(d) it - I'm too old now to do much.) Here's some tips, not knowing where you're from, where you're traveling from, etc.
1) Arrive early, and / or rent equipment before you go to the ski area. If you don't you will end up in lines for 4-5 hours and miss almost the entire day.
2) Go to a ski shop and try on some boots before you go. Get used to the feel. They do not feel natural at first.
3) Go to a small ski area. At north shore Tahoe, maybe Sugar Bowl, etc.
4) So far it's been super dry here in CA. Check the weather, the snow, the forecasts, the snow levels, etc. Depends on the time of year and if we do get some moisture. If we don't get some before you go, don't bother or go somewhere else.
5) Maybe look at accommodations in Truckee. Especially for Sugar Bowl it is really close to Truckee. They'll be more convenient and likely less expensive.
6) Know how to drive in the snow and be prepared. If you get in a winter storm and are driving to / from Tahoe on either 50 or 80 you are in for a VERY LONG drive, emphasis cannot be heavy enough on the VERY.
7) Dress in layers. Buy good base layers if nothing else.
8) Look for package deals for beginners, but again either rent before going up or get there early.
Guess after all that, maybe I put a damper on your plans. But if you get good snow, decent weather, don't hit a winter storm on your drive, and are clothed properly, it is a fantastic sport.

Thank you so much everyone - this is all really helpful!

Most of the ski areas in Tahoe can make snow - certainly for the bunny/beginning slopes.
Report Abuse
FWIW, there are many more inexpensive motels in Kings Beach than in Truckee (also South Lake Tahoe, but I'd choose somewhere in North LT for your first experience).

Sea-Tac's third runway set to open after years of delay
A commercial plane touched its tires to the pavement for the first time Thursday at SeaTac airport's newly built third runway.
Seattle Times staff reporter
It took only seconds for a brand-new Alaska Airlines 737 jet to touch its tires to the pavement, travel roughly 2,000 feet, and take off again. But the touch-and-go landing at 1:01 p.m. Thursday represented a major milestone in the checkered history of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport's third runway.
It was the first time a commercial plane touched rubber to road on the runway that's been a generation in the making, cost a shade over $1 billion and is meant to speed up the arrival of incoming planes — even though it won't help departing flights get in the air any faster.
A series of test landings were held Thursday — three on autopilot, when the plane essentially landed itself, and three with the pilot controlling the plane's touchdown — as part of the Federal Aviation Administration's certification process for the new runway.
The purpose was to ensure that the plane's instruments were properly communicating with instruments embedded in the runway and with folks in the air traffic control tower, said Port of Seattle spokesman Perry Cooper. He couldn't say immediately after the landings whether they'd gone as planned because the test results still needed to be analyzed.
Similar tests will be done in a couple of weeks with a larger, wider aircraft. The new runway is scheduled to open Nov. 20. The airport's two other runways are too close together to allow airplanes to land on both during times of low-visibility — weather conditions that exist 44 percent of the time in Seattle, Cooper said.
The hope is that the third runway can shave delays — which can add up to as much as an extra 90 minutes in the air for pilots and passengers — down to 15 minutes, he said.
"It's not designed for consistent landings," Cooper said. "It's not to be a takeoff runway. It's designed for landings in low visibility."
It's been nearly 20 years since airport officials first raised the idea of adding a third runway. The project proved to be hugely controversial: Construction was delayed by a decade because at least 20 lawsuits were filed against the project, mostly related to environmental issues. The Port, which relocated a creek, filled in 15 acres of wetlands and used 16 million cubic yards of fill dirt in building the 8,500-foot-long runway, was required to mitigate a slew of environmental impacts.
But the controversy does not appear to be over just yet, since the runway was at the heart of a scathing state audit that earlier this year led the U.S. Justice Department to a launch a federal probe into how the Port awarded construction contracts.
Chris Gower, a longtime opponent of the runway project, said, "once it starts making noise," the runway will irrevocably change the lives of those who live nearby.
"The questions that remain today are: Does the environmental mitigation work? That's the big shoe that's yet to drop," Gower said. "Was fraud committed in building the third runway? And, in a recession, with Alaska Airlines cutting routes and laying off pilots, was a third runway even needed?"

"Wildside" feat. A$AP Rocky
After a skit that seemingly details one of T.I.'s pre-fame police run-ins (later interludes directly reference some of his more recent troubles), Tip again defiantly highlights his corner credentials, toasting the high life with help from a tastefully Auto-tuned hook, a bluesy, surprisingly Southern-sounding No I.D. beat and a verse from in-demand guest A$AP Rocky.

school pageant
Moral Orel: School Pageant
by Adam Finley, posted Jun 11th 2007 9:51AM
(S02E16) This was probably the most sitcomesque episode of Moral Orel so far; I think it could have played on network television without any issues, which is saying something for a series that has been challenged by the censors on more than one occasion.
But let's not confuse "sitcomesque" with "formulaic," because even if a plot centering on a school pageant has been done before, it hasn't been done in the super-pious town of Moralton, where everyone loves Jesus, and Christian folk bands tell folks to think with their heart and "put a motorboard on your aorta."

Red Sox sign Ortiz to 2-year, $26M deal
Published On: Nov 05 2012 04:21:14 PM CST
Updated On: Nov 06 2012 05:26:42 AM CST
Updated On: Nov 06 2012 05:26:42 AM CST
Ortiz and the team reached an agreement Friday night.
He batted .318 with 23 home runs and 60 RBI in 90 games. His season was limited by a right Achilles strain he sustained on July 16 and played only one more game after that.
Ortiz, 36, has a .290 average with 343 homers and 1,088 RBI in his 10 years with Boston and was key to helping the Red Sox win World Series titles in 2004 and '07.

Factbox: U.S.-Russian agreement on Syrian chemical weapons
GENEVA (Reuters) - The United States and Russia agreed a "framework for elimination of Syrian chemical weapons" on Saturday.
Following are some key points of the agreement, which was posted here
* The United States and Russia will ask the Organization for Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) to approve extraordinary procedures within the next few days "for expeditious destruction of the Syrian chemical weapons program and stringent verification thereof".
* The United States and Russia will work together towards prompt adoption of a U.N. resolution enforcing the OPCW decision including steps to ensure verification and effective implementation.
* Syria must ensure the immediate and unfettered right to inspect any and all sites in Syria.
* If Syria does not comply, including unauthorised transfer or use of chemical weapons by anyone in Syria, the U.N. Security Council should impose measures under a Chapter 7 resolution.
* Syria must submit within a week "a comprehensive listing, including names, types and quantities of its chemical weapons agents, types of munitions and location and form of storage, production and research and development facilities".
* The United States and Russia want the weapons to be destroyed outside Syria if possible.
* Facilities for developing and making chemical weapons and weapons delivery systems must also be eliminated.
* The agreement includes the following target dates:
- Completion of initial on-site inspections of declared sites by November.
- Destruction of production and mixing/filling equipment by November.
- Complete elimination of all chemical weapons material and equipment in first half of 2014.

Edited New Bolton release
Barbaro, winner of the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I), continues to improve following the removal of his right hind leg cast on Nov. 6, according to his medical team."Barbaro is steadily gaining strength on his right hind limb now that it is out of the cast," said Dr. Dean W. Richardson, chief of surgery at the New Bolton Center. "He is only wearing a very light cotton bandage on that leg and both walks and stands well on it."Barbaro's lower right hind leg had been in a cast since surgery at Penn's George D. Widener Hospital following his accident at the Preakness Stakes (gr. I) on May 20."Radiographs of his fractured lower limb were taken yesterday and look excellent," said Richardson.Barbaro's left hind foot, which had laminitis, continues to improve."The left hind foot is improving gradually and has a long way to go although his comfort on that foot remains surprisingly good," said Dr. Richardson. "Barbaro's attitude and appetite remain excellent, and he still takes short walks outside to graze each day if the weather permits."The next update will be posted on Tuesday, Dec. 12, unless there is a significant change in Barbaro's condition.

The Wallflowers have announced that the band's new single, "Reboot The Mission" is available to stream on RollingStone.com today, and a FREE mp3 download will be available tomorrow at thewallflowers.com. The first single off of the band's new album Glad All Over, which hits stores October 2nd, is a Clash-inspired track featuring Mick Jones on vocals and guitar. Check out the track HERE.
The Wallflowers recently kicked off an exclusive club tour of the U.S. On these dates the band are giving fans a preview of the new material, which finds them rediscovering their sound while reflecting the varied influences they have accumulated over the years. "It's been a while since we've felt this energized and creative. We haven't changed our stripes so much as we're continuing to redefine the animal," says frontman Jakob Dylan.
Formed in Los Angeles, The Wallflowers rose to fame with their 4x platinum album Bringing Down The Horse, which featured four top charting singles including "6th Avenue Heartache," "One Headlight," "The Difference," and "Three Marlenas." The two-time Grammy Award winners went on to sell over 7 million records worldwide with a series of critically acclaimed albums before going on hiatus in 2007. During the group's break from recording, Dylan released two solo albums, which also garnered significant praise, 2008's Seeing Things and 2010's Women and Country.
