Under the terms of the agreement, Ophthotech will pay an upfront fee of $500,000 for exclusive rights to investigate this compound's potency and potential as an ocular formulation. Ophthotech is solely responsible for the ocular formulation and development of this compound, which will focus initially on a sustained release formulation as a treatment for the maintenance phase of wet AMD therapy. Under the agreement, upon completion of Ophthotech's initial analysis, if Ophthotech elects to continue the development of an ocular formulation of this anti-VEGF therapy, Ophthotech will pay additional fees based upon Ophthotech's submission of an Initial New Drug application and upon the demonstration of proof of concept in humans. If Ophthotech exercises its option for an exclusive worldwide license for the compound for ocular indications, Ophthotech will pay a license fee, and development, regulatory and sales-based milestones, if achieved, as well royalties on commercial sales.

From space age electric tuk tuks to poo-powered tuk tuks, the idea of a cleaner ride is nothing new. Pictured above is yet another alt-energy tuk tuk, this one from a few years ago in Bangkok. The inventor of that solar-powered vehicle was Morakot Charnsomruad, who now sells the EVs through his company, Clean Fuel Energy.
But today we've got news of someone who wants to take all of these ideas of a renewable-energy tuk tuk and prove its worth. The New York Times profiles an electrical engineer from Bangalore, India, Naveen Rabelli, who wants to drive a solar-powered tuk tuk of his from India to London, UK. The more impressive part is that Rabelli converted the previously gas-powered Piaggio Ape tuk tuk with just $6,500. For that money, he's got a taxi that can go 50 miles on an eight-hour charge (16 from the solar panels). The problem? He thinks it'll cost $43,000 to get to the UK, so he's looking for sponsors who want to partner up for greener transportation. If everything goes right, the trip will commence in the summer of 2015.

Argentina's peso, has seen its sharpest falls since the country's 2002 financial crisis. Inflation has recently soared to 25% and is expected to rise to 30% plus. In the last crisis in 2002, millions of Argentines saw their living standards collapse with 41% inflation and a government default on international debts.
President Cristina Kirchner, in power since 2007 and re-inaugurated on December 10, 2011 11am for a second term has been absent from view until this week after an operation for a blood clot on the brain.
The Argentina 25 May 1810 chart with its 3 degree Gemini Sun is obviously sagging badly with tr Neptune square Sun at the moment and tr Neptune moves on to square the Sun/Mars, Sun/Neptune and Sun/Saturn midpoints and then square Mars over the next three years -- so it's going to get worse before it gets better.

The central Bank of Argentina, 28 May 1935, is showing confusion, uncertainty, panic and meltdown for several years to come. Tr Neptune again is square its 5 degree Gemini Sun from late February this year onwards. Tr Pluto trines Neptune at the moment and again till late 2014; and there's a 'shocking' Solar Arc Uranus conjunct Venus now. With tr Neptune moving on to conjunct their Saturn come 2015. There'll be some cheer by 2016 with tr Pluto sextile Jupiter but it'll be a swim thro' a whirlpool till then.
It's certainly not as bad as 2002 when the tr Pluto opposition tr Saturn was hitting those key planets on the above charts but it'll be bad enough.
Cristina Kirchner, theoretically in power till late 2015, was always going to face a tricky second term since that chart has a Sagittarius Sun opposition Moon square Mars in the financial Eigth House. That Mars is under great pressure in 2014/15 from late Feb as tr Pluto trines it so she's facing an uphill battle with deep frustrations. Her own chart, 19 Feb 1953 12.15 pm La Plata, Arg (astrotheme) does have a supportive tr Pluto trine Jupiter in 2015/16. Before then her midpoints show a fair amount of stress and anxiety some of which could be health related.

Canon 5D MK II & The Video Village Challenge

The Making of "The Last 3 Minutes"
When Shane told me he wanted to shoot behind the scenes footage of "The Last 3 Minutes" I was very excited as I had only used the 5D MKII for narrative work. I knew that using the 5D for run and gun style documentary work might be a challenge and loved the idea of diving in head first.

As the pressure from commercial production companies and the ad agencies started to inquire about needing 24p and that they could not deal with the rendering time of all the twixtor files, the 7D started to rise as the premium capture. That is when the aha moment happened for me. I thought, why is everyone asking for second best when the Canon 5D is king.

Taking An OL At #12 A Mockery?Posted by on February 10, 2011 – 3:06 pm
It's a bit early to begin analyzing mock drafts on a regular basis – our annual Mock Madness feature will return in March – but I ran across a few early mocks and thought it might make for good conversation here on the blog during a slow week. I think it'll spark good conversation because the 3 mock drafts I found project the Vikings to take a player at a position other than QB.
Obviously QB is perceived by many to be the Vikings biggest need during the offseason, so many expect the Vikings will use their 1st-round pick (#12 overall) on a young QB. But maybe they won't. Perhaps the Vikings QB of the future can be found in later rounds. Only time will tell us what happens. In the meantime, though, let's take a closer look at whom the Vikings might choose at #12 if that player is not a QB.
The 3 mock drafts I stumbled upon today were on Sports Illustrated's website (SI.com) and ESPN.com. Don Banks is the Sports Illustrated writer with a mock draft on SI.com and he has the Vikings taking Colorado OT Nate Solder with their 1st-round pick. Solder stands at 6-8, 314 pounds and is very well-regarded in college football circles. He was Colorado's starting LT and was named the Big 12′s Offensive Lineman of the Year in 2010. He's also a consensus All-America and was a finalist for the Outland Trophy (nation's top lineman).
On ESPN.com, draft analyst Mel Kiper, Jr. also projects the Vikings to take Solder. "Durable, smart and a guy who sustains his blocks, Solder is my top-rated tackle, a position that usually would be gone before this stage," Kiper says. Kiper's colleague at ESPN, Todd McShay, has the Vikings taking an OT, too. But his projection is Tyron Smith out of the University of Southern California. "Offensive line is not Minnesota's biggest need but Smith is emerging as the top offensive tackle in the class with his natural feet and athleticism, and you can never go wrong drafting good offensive linemen," McShay says.
So there you have it, 3 football observers who regularly post mock drafts project the Vikings to take an OT with their 1st-round pick. But my question is, would an OT be able to make an impact on the Vikings in 2010? I'm not sure that he could. I believe Bryant McKinnie has actually had a solid past 2 seasons – contrary to public opinion – and I think Phil Loadholt is on the right track at RT with a bright future in the NFL. I'm not against adding more depth along the OL, but I also want the #12 overall pick to be an impact player.
Perhaps the Vikings could take an OT in the 1st round and consider moving him to an interior position, with the intention to eventually move that player back to OT when an opportunity arises? Either way, I thought it was notable to see 3 different mock drafters project the Vikings taking an OT at a time when many Vikings fans perceive QB as the #1 need.
What say you Vikings fans? Let us know in the comments section below this entry.
UPDATE: McShay has issued a new mock draft and projects the Vikings to take DE Robert Quinn out of the University of North Carolina. "Quinn falls here because of the suspension that cost him the entire 2010 season, and the Vikings take advantage," McShay says. "Their defense is aging, and two of their defensive ends — starter Ray Edwards and backup Brian Robison — are free agents. The team would like to find its future franchise quarterback here, but Locker needs too much time to develop."

Some NFL Draft-Related ThoughtsPosted by on February 8, 2011 – 11:15 am
With Super Bowl XLV (finally) complete and the 2010 NFL season officially in the books, it's time to turn our focus exclusively toward the offseason. The two most significant talking points in the early part of the offseason are the 2011 NFL Draft and the on-going Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) negotiations.
The CBA issue is paramount because without a new agreement in place between the NFL and the NFLPA we won't have any on-field or off-field football activities. We won't get into the details of the CBA negotiations right now, but you can always check out our CBA FAQ page to get some basic questions answered.
Let's talk about something much more fun and entertaining – the NFL draft. Here are a few notes to keep in mind in the early stages of pre-draft speculation…
– The Vikings hold the 12th overall pick in this year's draft, we all know that by now. But the team also has 6 other picks in the draft – a 2nd, 4th, two 5ths, a 6th and a 7th. You'll notice the lack of a 3rd-round pick – given up in Randy Moss trade – and the extra 5th-round pick – acquired in Darius Reynaud/Sage Rosenfels trade.
– The biggest question surrounding the Vikings is, what will they do with the #12 pick? Most fans and observers are expecting the Vikings to select a QB with that pick. But if the team's preferred QB is not available by the time pick #12 comes around or if the team likes a QB but values that player as a later pick, there are several other alternatives. We'll get into this in more detail as the draft approaches.
– I've stated many times both here on the blog and in the Monday Morning Mailbag that Vikings Head Coach Leslie Frazier has seemed committed to finding a young QB in this year's draft. While that may be the generally preferred route to acquiring a QB, Frazier has also indicated that the team has not decided to use the draft as the exclusive means to finding a franchise-caliber QB. Appearing on Rosen's Sports Sunday this past weekend, Frazier said: "We have some time between now and the draft to kind of look at some things from a free-agent standpoint and then we'll look at some college players as well to try to make a determination: Is it better to draft a guy or is it better to maybe bring in a veteran guy to compete in training camp? We do not have our mind made up at all."
Thanks to Judd Zulgad of the Star Tribune for transcribing that quote. Zulgad transcribed Frazier's entire interview with Rosen – check it out by clicking here.
– Once March rolls around we'll begin our annual Mock Madness feature, where we track on a weekly basis several popular mock drafts. In the meantime, though, I thought it was notable that Nolan Nawrocki of Pro Football Weekly has projected the Vikings taking Iowa DE Adrian Clayborn. This might come off as a surprise to many at first glance, but consider that both Ray Edwards and Brian Robison are free agents (assuming a new CBA is worked out) and you can see why DE might be the route the Vikings take.
– Speaking of DEs, NFL Network draft analyst and Vikings preseason TV game analyst Mike Mayock says the DE position may be the strongest in this year's draft. He said on NFL Network's Total Access that as many as 7 or 8 DEs could go in the 1st round. Click here to watch a video of Mayock breaking down his top 5 DEs.
– Lastly, just wanted to remind you that I'll be heading to Indianapolis later this month to cover the NFL Scouting Combine. I'll be there beginning on February 23 and will pass along as much information as possible to you. You can expect to hear from Frazier and Vikings VP of Player Personnel Rick Spielman at least one time a piece, and we'll also try to catch up with as many NFL observers and draft-eligible players as possible.

78 Tasting Notes
Dark brown almost black in color with a woodsy earthy aroma. The tea tastes of wood and earth, which are flavors I enjoy in a Pu-erh tea. It is not really sweet at all and is quite light and smooth. The aftertaste is nice and mute. Good stuff.
Light to medium Oolong with a greenish orange color and an aroma of licorice and herbal medicine. This tea has a sugary sweetness that hits you right away and lingers like I just ate a piece of candy. It taste like a green tea with sugar added to it. I like my tea unsweetened so the sweetness is a little too much for me. Other than that, it has a pleasant taste. The dry tea is interesting in that it is hard and has something similar to a candy coating, probable from the process of adding the ginseng to the tea.

Teachers in California write a book in the indigenous Mexican language of Mixteco. And from the mouths of babes comes this week's sabiduría.
#1424 - Move It
This week, Latino USA is on the move with guest host Raquel Cepeda. We hear stories of La Bestia, the train which takes Central American migrants through Mexico to the US. We hear about a Salvadoran woman's story, from a gay migrant, and about those trying to take alternate modes of transport. And we hear about one man who massages the feet of migrants as they journey north. Then: some background on the World Cup, traveling while brown, and doing Zumba for community. And finally, the World War II internment story you might have missed.
#1423 - Heartland
This week: Nebraska. A state heavily impacted by a growing Latino population. We start with a two-part special report on Fremont, where a one of a kind anti-immigration housing ordinance is causing strife among neighbors. We look at the role of immigrant workers on the Nebraska economy, and debut our By the Numbers segment with award-winning journalist Guy Garcia. We meet teens legally allowed to be in the US but blocked from driving by the state, and meet two great heartland characters: an Irish immigrant teaching English to new Latino arrivals and a Nebraska-born Chicano organizer.
#1422 - Push It
This week it's all about pushing it. From hunger strikers pushing their bodies to the limit to fight for their rights to musicians Calle 13, who have pushed beyond a jokester past to test new boundaries. We also hear from Former US Labor Secretary Hilda Solis as she runs for a new office in Los Angeles. And we hear what happens when people push the wrong buttons while flirting by making the compliments all about ethnicity. We look to Chile to find out what happens when abortion is illegal under any circumstance. Lastly, we hear from a young man who is a Special Olympics athlete.
#1421 - Report Card
As the school year winds down, we hand out some grades on our report card show. From the failure of schools to maintain integration, to the effort shown to allow undocumented students in-state tuition. Then, we look at the price paid by one Texas school for trying to graduate former dropouts. First-generation college students graduate. We grade the media for trying to deal with stats correctly. And we hear how TV's done this year in terms of diverse programs. Finally, producer Daisy Rosario tells Bill Cosby about what he's done to change her mother's life.

Second HDD drastically increases S3 wake time
Hi folks. sorry about first post being a question but I can't find anything that I can answer atm...
I've recently built the system described in my specs and all worked well untill I installed the second HDD. I want the second disk as a file backup disk as I don't need the performance of RAID 0 but want easy, constant access to a backup disk without having to plug in an external. The second disk is recognised by the BIOS and Windows (it can be accessed and I formatted and mapped it and read and write is fine). The problem is that I've noticed that now instead of Windows 7's awesome 2-3 second wake from S3 sleep that I had with one drive, it now takes about 15-20s. The second HDD is definitely the culprit as I've pulled the power on it and Windows will wake in 3 seconds again. Windows seems to wait for the second disk to spin up before it wakes 'cause I can hear it click and spin at wake. I asked friends with multiple disks and they said that their second disk only spins up when they first access them in explorer. I thought this would be a simple BIOS setting to set mine to do the same but I cannot find anything appropriate. The only thing in Windows' Power Management settings that I can find relating to HDDs is the inactive time to spin down; nothing about spin up at boot/wake. Google has only offered me something called PUIS or PM2 power setting for SATA drives that was made for older PSUs that couldn't handle the power requirements of spinning up two HDDs simultaneously. This sounded like it might work but the setting is apparently made with SATA jumpers (I didn't even know that SATA drives had jumpers) and on inspection of my drives, mine don't.
Does anybody know of a Windows setting for this or is it a BIOS thing? I've asked Gigabyte but they've not replied in a few days and I don't think they're going to any time soon.
By the way, I don't think it's relevant but the drives are on the same power lead... I'm clutching at straws with that one I think
|My System Specs
|29 Jan 2012
Win 7
I realize, this thread is old, but the info is still useful for many.
PUIS is used in modern systems too, especially in Enterprise and RAID setups, and is a part of future ATA/ATAPI Command Set - see section 4.20 and others. You can use Hitachi Feature Tool to activate PUIS in various HDD brands (i.e. block non-system disks spinup at wakeup from Standby until you try to write or read files from these disks), if your HDD firmware & hardware supports this feature. It should be supported on most drive models as part fo ATA/ATAPI Standard, but some Samsung green models may have issues with it as reported on the web, as they use alternative similar purpose feature sets. There are also some other open source and HDD maker developed tools capable of activating PUIS. This feature requires BIOS support.
Windows also use some Registry settings to allow for more time to access (system) drives at wakeup, which is useful for booting from slower and USB external drives. But it doesn't have AFAIK any settings to block non-system HDD spinup at wakeup, this is the feature of HDD firmware. Such Windows feature would be useful however, especially on multidrive systems to save energy and avoid BSODs due to delays in accessing some of HDDs at wakeup because of PSU voltage drop.

CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) - The Nevada Commission on Tourism is
launching an ad campaign to lure winter enthusiasts to the slopes of the Silver State.
Lt. Gov. Brian Krolicki says the state's winter sports push is focusing on neighboring California, Utah and Arizona to catch people who want to vacation close to home.
The campaign runs through Feb. 12 and includes TV commercials in
San Francisco, Los Angeles and Phoenix. An online blitz targets Fresno, Calif., Las Vegas, Sacramento, Salt Lake City, San Diego and Bakersfield.
A bi-weekly sweepstakes on the Travel Nevada Facebook page is offering a chance for hotel accommodations, ski lift tickets and other prizes.
The tourism commission is funded by a portion of the state lodging tax and not by the Nevada general fund.

The European Union and the Gulf Cooperation Council signed an Economic Cooperation Agreement in 1988 which laid the framework for the elaboration of a bilateral free trade agreement between the two regional blocs. Formal negotiations began in 1990 and are still not concluded.
While the EU has powerful economic interests in liberalising investment rules in the Gulf States, so that EU corporations may participate directly in the region's oil, banking, telecoms, port services and other industries, political issues have been publically blamed for blocking agreement. These include demands from the EU with regards to fulfilling standards of democracy and human rights, as well as clauses on cooperation against terrorism and weapons of mass destruction. Human rights groups, such as the International Federation for Human Rights, have urged the EU to insist on respect for freedom of press, women's rights and labour rights of migrant workers in the Gulf countries in return for any trade concessions granted through the FTA.
At the end of 2008, the GCC formally announced it was suspending the trade talks due to the EU's insistence on political demands.

Chris Meloni
I've barely adjusted to The Goldbergs mining the 1980s for comic nostalgia — seems not that long ago that Geraldo Rivera opened Al Capone's empty vault, and that's a subplot in an early April episode — and now comes Fox's Surviving Jack (Thursday, 9:30/8:30c), a coming-of-age family sitcom set in the not-so-distant past of the 1990s. (Can't wait for the arc about Y2K anxiety.)
Surviving Jack
He may act like a tough dad and sound like a tough dad, but Surviving Jack star Christopher Meloni wants to make it very clear: his character's bark is far worse than his bite.

On Wednesday's episode (9/8c, NBC), Capt. Cragen will retire from the force after 15 seasons of SVU and three seasons on the original flagship series — all of which makes him the longest-running character in Law & Order history. "We set this thing in motion where, for the first time ever, he had a hint of a social life," Leight said in reference to...

Of course you can argue that, for example, people living in Russia already had to use latin characters to use the web. But they already do it! And they can reach ALL the internet using them. They can even reach chinese and japanese web sites...
Toshiba 14in USB LCD Mobile Monitor
"Toshiba expects you to rely on the power coming from your laptop, which is convenient, and fine if you can have it plugged into the mains" - So, you don't want to have the laptop plugged into the mains and, at the same time, you want to do it with the monitor... makes perfect sense!
Asus pushes Prime pre-orders
It's a shame...
..that they opted to make the keyboard incompatible with the previous model.
So, if I buy one of these (and I'm really thinking about it), will I have to throw the keyboard out, when I decide to upgrade to the next model? It really makes no sense (other than Asus wanting to sell another keyboard)

"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope." – Martin Luther King, Jr.
On Wednesday, history was made when Senators Reid and McConnell finally reached a deal to open the federal government in exchange for lifting the $16.9 trillion debt limit. It's hardly imaginable that our debt ceiling is getting ready to hit $17 trillion and there is no end in site.
And yes, the wheels of Washington are turning again, including the full force of the IRS.
Many of you have sent me notes expressing your thoughts about the deal. Congratulations to those of you who were pleased with the outcome. To those who felt a sense of betrayal, don't be discouraged.
In 1777, after losing a major battle to the British, General George Washington found himself with two court-marshaled generals and a very demoralized army. General Washington, in addressing his troops, said, "We should never despair, our situation before has been unpromising and has changed for the better, so I trust, it will again. If new difficulties arise, we must only put forth new exertions and proportion our efforts to the exigency of the times."
These prior statements point to an interesting phenomenon within the FairTax® movement. FairTax supporters span the entire political spectrum – from far left to far right. This is why the FairTax has never been about being a Democrat or a Republican. It has always been and will always be about a simple, fair and transparent tax plan for everyone – regardless of position, income, title or standing in life. The FairTax is the great equalizer, taking power from the ruling class and returning it to the people. This is why Washington's ruling class fears the FairTax as much as losing their coveted positions of power.
And that's why we can't stop now. With the signing of the debt deal, we anticipate the Committee on Ways and Means will now develop a schedule for their fundamental tax reform deliberations.
This means our vote activities must now take on new urgency.
In preparation for the vote we are aggressively working with our contract research team to confirm HR 25's ten-year revenue estimates. We are also preparing for the Joint Committee on Taxation's scoring of HR 25 – a requirement for any tax reform plan being considered by the Committee on Ways and Means. Lastly, we are developing a rapid response force. Many of you have already expressed interest in joining that team.
Right now, we need relentless, unendingcommunications to Washington in support of the FairTax Plan. Contact your representatives – whether you have contacted them before or not – and members of the Ways and Means Committee.
Finally, don't miss this Sunday's broadcast of "60 Minutes" on CBS.
Peter Schweizer, the author of Throw Them All Out and an upcoming expose Extortion, will be featured Sunday evening on CBS "60 Minutes". In Extortion, Schweizer exposes how both parties in Washington, D.C. engage in legal extortion of the private sector to fund campaigns and enrich lobbyists, consultants and bureaucrats among others. This is one you don't want to miss! And, be sure and look for an upcoming announcement in FairTax Friday on how you can get a special copy of this most compelling expose.
In closing, it's been a rough few weeks for our nation. Some of you have asked how the FairTax can become law when Congress has so much difficulty just getting a budget deal passed? My answer is just look at how far the FairTax has already come. We have made history twice in just the past few weeks!
The Committee on Ways and Means will be voting on HR 25 for the first time in history and we now have more co-sponsors than at any other time in history! We have the entire Kansas Congressional delegation signed on as co-sponsors – the first state in the nation. And, last but not least, the House oversight committee is investigating the shenanigans of the IRS.
Just one year ago, none of these things were true.
Things don't move quickly in Washington. Congress didn't abolish slavery and women were not given the right to vote overnight, and it required a critical mass of the American people demanding change. Our critical mass is building.
That is why I am confident that one day, the FairTax will be the law of the land.
Until next week,
Cindy Canevaro
Executive Director

Parvo puppy found us
This is Riley. She is a 5-month-old Pit Bull mix. She found us on a cold and blistering midnight in February. My partner and I were living in a one-bedroom apartment with two cats, not looking for a dog until we purchased our first home. When she stuck her little block head through our back porch, she was soaked and shivering with bones sticking out all over and a perfect burn mark on her little...

Bear in the backyard
One June day in 2006, I opened the door to our back deck to take my marvelous mutt, Furio, for a walk. As soon as his paws hit the wooden slats, his hair raised and his body froze in fear. Then I saw what Furio was looking at: a big black bear underneath the deck. I rushed Furio into the house and came back outside to make sure my eyes weren't fooling me. Sure enough, there was something very...

The science and art of naming your dog or Sometimes, what you say is what you get.
"His name is 'Baby,'" Helen told me as she stroked her dog's massive black head. "Baby" weighed in at about 65 pounds, was seven years old and had bitten 13 times. The last bite had been to Helen, when she tried to stop an attack on her disabled son. Needless to say, we had a lot to talk about, and one of the topics was her dog's name. Helen explained to me that Baby had always been "her baby,"...

Kennel Club Documentary Strikes a Chord "The Cost of Perfection" (Oct. '09) was an excellent article and oh so timely. But let's be clear that the fault is not only that of the breeders. When judges reward the dogs with exaggerations, then everyone jumps on the bandwagon. This leads to the ridiculous extremes that prevail in the show rings and then the whelping boxes. It takes a great judge with...

Winner of The Bark's 1st Annual Short Story/Fiction Contest
A brindle-furred Pit Bull is one point of a complex, mid-life love triangle in Bim Angst's contest-winning story "Village Dogs" (The Bark, April/May 2010). In the piece, a man and a woman stutter-step toward one another, in large part, through their feelings about the dog. The result is an authentic and poignant look at how people—often aided by their canine co-pilots—come together. On the eve of...

Doing life on her own terms
"She doesn't have much time," my mother said over the phone one April morning, "you should come down this weekend." My dog, an almost 17-year-old white, coal-eyed Bichon Frise, who had been part of the family since she was four months old, was dying. Whether it was a recently-found tumor or a long-hidden hormonal imbalance, the problem was neurological, and Dr. Cohen told us there was little he...

ANALYSIS: (Coca-Cola) Blak to the drawing-board
The withdrawal of Coca-Cola's Blak brand from the US has once again shown that new product development can be something of a hit and miss affair, even for the most powerful and experienced companies. Blak clearly did not take off with US consumers but, writes Annette Farr, in today's market drinks companies may have to accept that flavours and concepts will have a limited shelf life, making constant innovation all the more vital.

The Edmonton Oilers' defensive strategy
Jonathan Willis
October 30 2014 11:37AM
The Oilers' strategy for their defenceman was a little mystifying at first, partially because they'd put one foot very wrong and partially because they were losing all the time so we weren't actually observing how things were going to change when the team won a game or two. Now that we've seen the team win and lose, it's a lot easier to pick up on exactly what the coaching staff is doing.
October 30 2014 07:00AM
Not much was known about Iiro Pakarinen the day he signed with the Edmonton Oilers, beyond he's a Finn and that's a good thing for the Edmonton Oilers (ALL of the good things that have happened in franchise history included a Finn in the Fotto).
He camp to training camp, impressed, and was sent to the minors. Where he's raising hell.

Damned Western Conference. Final Score: 4-1 Predators
GDB 10.0: The West is best
Jason Gregor
October 29 2014 12:40PM
The majority of the best teams in the NHL are in the western conference, and if the Oilers want to become a playoff team they need to beat some western opponents. It is great that they can dominate the east, but they only play 32 games vs. the east. The other 50 games are against big, strong and experienced western conference teams. You need to compete in -- and win -- those games if you want to be a playoff team.
The Oilers aren't changing conferences, so they better learn how to compete and defeat their western foes.
