I think we underrate Girardi a bit. 25, inexpensive, was a league-leader in hits last season. Good size. Can play 20 minutes a night. Has played against Crosby, AO, Kovy, etc.
I really think we can get a top-6 player for him. A somewhat questionable one though, ala Zherdev.
I wouldn't even think about trading Dubi+Girardi unless a 1st liner under 30 is coming back.
The big picture is what matters here. Are we better off trying to unload big contracts, and invest that money properly towards players that can produce? Or trade a bunch of nickels and dimes, for a quarter?

In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity. ~Albert Einstein
All this week i have been feeling blah...more tired than usual and just...well...blah...i found out today i have sun poisoning and a mild infection...along with some dehydration...though i drink so much water i could drowned a fish...uhg... at least i know why i don't feel good now.... it's not just me...well...it is me...but...oh heck....you know what i mean...lol... i'm suppose to be on bed rest...but i couldn't help but sign in and catch a little encouragement....me not coming here would be like me not coming home...and though i don't have the energy to welcome new members to the teams i belong to, nor offer much in the way of encouragement to others...i am sitting back and letting others encourage me this time...i am only lucky lady and have met some awsome people :)
Today's quote was "For sound sleep, no pillow is as soft as a clean conscience." - Anonymous
We don't have to do something bad or wrong to have something prick or conscience and keep us awake...it could be something like a feeling we just aren't good enough...not a good enough spouse (if your married), parent, employee, daughter/son or even a good enough citizen... for most of us, we will have that feeling at some time or another... though i am finding in my own life, that keeping a journal, this one a written one, is helping me to overcome this...in turn....helping me to sleep better at night...i put it on paper, i then use the 3-3's (3 positive things, 3 thankful things & 3 things i love about me), i then close the book...my not good enough's are now history...time to start a new 24 hours...
I am beyond exhausted. My day started yesterday at 4:30am-was at work at 6am-worked until 2:30pm and went and had coffee with mom and then came home and was checking emails and checking out SP when my phone rang...it was work wanting me to come back for "a couple" hours... call me nuts, call me stupid or just call me a glutton for punishment.... by 430pm i was back at work, worked until 10:30pm and was settled and in bed by midnight....the night before i hadn't gone to bed until midnight either....so needless to say...i did not do the 4:30am today....but was up by 5am....i'm tired but luckily it is the weekend now and next week i am on vacation...wohoo!!!!
My quote for today:

"Great story, great narration"
I am about half way through this audio book. Can't wait to get back in my car and hate to get out of it. Dick Hill is one of my all time favorite narrators and I think he brings this story to life, including the voices of the females. You won't be dissapointed if you download this.
"Was totally able to put myself in their shoes"
Awesome book! The story and the readers were so real. Gave me true insight into the life of an obese person and someone who lives with an alcoholic. Hit very close to home and helped me to feel compassion.
Was sad when the book ended. Wanted to follow along their path.
"Deepened My Spirituality"
Amazing listen - both the story and performance. I do not doubt the facts in this book at all and really appreciate the willingness of Dr. Mary Neal to share the intimate details of her life.
This book has brought me to a place where I want to keep growing spiritually and has deepened my relationship with my higher power. I am not a "religious person" and there was a lot of reference to the bible in the story but IMHO each reading from the bible related to each chapter in the book and only enhanced the book.
I don't believe in coincidences. Listen to this audio book - you won't be disappointed.
I rarely write reviews but after listening to this I felt I had to. I bought it because other reviews said it was worth it. This was a waste of my $4.95 that I paid for it. To begin with the story is so slow. It's two parts, nine hours I believe and it just drags. You don't get to the meat of the story till the last few hours and when you do, you say who cares. Worst part of all was the narration. Maybe if there was a different narrator the story would have been a little more bearable. But the narrator was as boring as the story if not more so. I could listen to this story for hours and not comprehend any of it and keep on listening and it didn't matter a bit. Don't waste your time or money. BORING
I bought this thinking it would be as good as the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Boy am I disappointed. There are parts that just seem to drag. I listen to audio books while I run and usually they get me thru the run without me even realizing I ran. Not this one.

Travel Notes, the seventh album by the Western Michigan University Jazz Orchestra, is much like the first half-dozen: big-band jazz whose design and performance are as consistently strong and artistic as one can envision at any level. Tom Knific, WMU's director of Jazz Studies since 2000, has a keen ear for engaging songs, one of which is his own sunny composition, That Day in May," sandwiched nicely between a pair of themes by bassist John Clayton-- the tasteful, well-grooved opener, Blues for Stephanie," and robust, gospel-flavored Reverence." Rounding out the impressive studio date are trumpeter Tim Hagans' ...read more
Lines of Influence is an energetic and exciting modern jazz release by multi-talented bassist/accomplished jazz educator Tom Knific. Featuring several generations of past students alongside his son, John, Knific has assembled an ensemble that not only represents his accomplishments as an educator and mentor, but performs at a level that only a working band can. Their interaction has been formed over several years of jamming, rehearsing and gigging together in various venues across the Midwest. Their years of experience culminate in an album that not only reflects the extraordinary individual talent each musician possesses, but the feeling of ...read more
As a rule, I've always found it a pleasure to listen to albums that feature a combo led by a bassist, and this one is no exception. Tom Knific, a Professor of Double-Bass and Director of Jazz Studies at Western Michigan University, here presents a well-rounded look at the jazz ballad. There are no star turns or long solos, despite the presence of many players who are fully capable of providing them.
Pianist Fred Hersch appears on two tracks with Knific and drummer Tim Froncek for a very Bill Evans-ish If I Should Lose You" and the original ...read more
Tom Knific is an invisible jazzman, one of those people who live playing music, while known to few but the musicians. Work on soundtracks, theater pit bands, and studio pop dates are the common way to do this, but the last twenty years have brought another avenue: jazz education in universities. Steady work and steady pay, the chance to tour and record in the summer - tenure! It is an attractive path to take, and of late many fine musicians have taken this route. One such musician is Tom Knific, a bass instructor at Western Michigan University. He shows his ...read more

Will These Analyst Upgrades Help Exelon (EXC) Stock Today? (Update)
Update (9:37 a.m.): Updated with Thursday market open information.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Exelon (EXC) received a pair of analyst upgrades on Thursday. Wells Fargo upgraded the stock to "market perform" because the power market is improving and the company should see accretion from the Pepco (POM) deal.
Deustche upgraded the stock to "buy" from "hold" and set a $38 price target. The firm calls the company a core play on a long-awaited market recovery.
The stock was up 2.54% to $35.92 at 9:36 a.m. on Thursday.Must Read: Warren Buffett's 10 Favorite Growth Stocks STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. ---------- Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates EXELON CORP as a "buy" with a ratings score of B. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate EXELON CORP (EXC) a BUY. This is driven by several positive factors, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its impressive record of earnings per share growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, good cash flow from operations, notable return on equity and compelling growth in net income. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had lackluster performance in the stock itself." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- EXELON CORP has improved earnings per share by 31.8% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past year. We feel that this trend should continue. During the past fiscal year, EXELON CORP increased its bottom line by earning $2.00 versus $1.40 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.37 versus $2.00).
- The debt-to-equity ratio is somewhat low, currently at 0.88, and is less than that of the industry average, implying that there has been a relatively successful effort in the management of debt levels. Despite the fact that EXC's debt-to-equity ratio is low, the quick ratio, which is currently 0.62, displays a potential problem in covering short-term cash needs.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to $1,949.00 million or 23.82% when compared to the same quarter last year. Despite an increase in cash flow, EXELON CORP's cash flow growth rate is still lower than the industry average growth rate of 44.78%.
- EXC, with its decline in revenue, slightly underperformed the industry average of 3.4%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 1.5%. The declining revenue has not hurt the company's bottom line, with increasing earnings per share.
- The company, on the basis of net income growth from the same quarter one year ago, has underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500 and greatly underperformed compared to the Electric Utilities industry average. The net income increased by 30.9% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $378.00 million to $495.00 million.

In Pakistan, a country where breast cancer kills more women than terrorist attacks, an awareness group couldnĺt even say the word ôbreastö while talking at a university about mammograms and how to check for lumps. They had to use the euphemism ôcancer of womenö to discuss a disease often shrouded in social stigma in this majority Muslim nation.
One in nine women in Pakistan will face breast cancer during their life, with the country having the highest rate of the disease across Asia, according to the breast cancer awareness group PinkRibbon, oncologists and other aid groups.
Yet discussing it remains taboo in a conservative, Islamic culture where the word breast is associated with sexuality instead of health and many view it as immoral for women to go to the hospital for screenings or discuss it with their family.
Now, women like breast cancer survivor and prominent Pakistani politician Fehmida Mirza and groups are trying to draw attention to the disease and break the silence surrounding it.
ôThereĺs nothing to be shy about it,ö Mirza told The Associated Press in an interview. ôNo woman, no woman should die of ignorance and negligence.ö
No national database tracks breast cancer statistics but people who combat the disease say it kills nearly 40,000 women every year in Pakistan. Thatĺs about the same rate as in the US, though Pakistan only has 180 million residents to the USĺ 313 million.
With a health care system in shambles and more young women getting the disease, breast cancer rates only are expected to get worse. World Health Organization official Shahzad Aalam in Pakistan said it was difficult to determine the exact magnitude, but that the disease is rampant. ôIt is the leading cancer killer among women,ö Aalam said.
Among Pakistani women there is very little knowledge about the disease. A study done at Rawalpindi General Hospital about breast cancer awareness among 600 women found 70 per cent totally ignorant of the disease, while 88 per cent did not know about breast self-exams and 68 per cent did not understand the significance of finding a lump in the breast. ôIf women are being diagnosed with breast cancer, they donĺt even share the news with their family members,ö said Omar Aftab, who heads PinkRibbon in Pakistan, which put on the varsity presentation where organisers couldnĺt even say ôbreastö. ôWeĺre trying to break these taboos,ö he said.
Those cultural taboos have been one of the biggest issues preventing women from seeking treatment or even knowing about the disease. During an awareness event in Pakistanĺs capital, Islamabad, female students attending a breast cancer lecture demanded the men leave.
ôIt will take very long for us to discuss these issues openly,ö said one female student who requested anonymity because she feared her family wouldnĺt like her speaking about the issue.
Another challenge is Pakistanĺs abysmal health care sector that is starved for money, the latest technology and drugs. Oncologist Saira Hasan at Shifa International Hospital in Islamabad said most major hospitals lack a screening centre or mammogram facility. Many patients first go to a traditional healer and by the time they visit a reputable doctor, the disease is often too far advanced to treat, Hasan said.
Women in the developing world, like Pakistan, tend to die at greater rates than in more developed countries because the disease is generally detected later and health care options arenĺt as good.
Hasan said several factors have contributed to the rise in the disease Ś above all the cultural taboos. Breast cancer survivor Sameera Raja, who owns an art gallery in southern Karachi and supports women facing breast cancer, says that it has to be changed. ôYouĺre surprised to hear how women actually sit on things,ö Raja said. Recalling how a woman would feel too embarrassed to talk about it even with her husband, she said: ôDonĺt hide behind closed doors.ö
Unlike in the US where celebrities like singer Sheryl Crow or actress Christina Applegate have freely discussed their fight with breast cancer, few such public figures have come forward in Pakistan. Thatĺs changed with Mirza, though she had to delay her treatment for three months after she was diagnosed in March 2012 to handle her work, which included how to rule on whether a criminal conviction against the serving prime minister should disqualify him from politics. ôThere was lot of pressure on me, work pressure,ö she said. ôEverybody (would) say itĺs an excuse Iĺm using to run away.ö
Mirza described her friends and family being shocked by the diagnosis. But during her diagnosis and treatment, she attended international conferences, ruled on the then PMĺs case, ran for re-election and won while undergoing chemotherapy. She now uses her position in parliament to advocate for womenĺs health issues. She plans to propose a bill making it mandatory for women to have breast cancer screenings and mammograms yearly, as well as to teach girls in schools to do breast exams themselves. ôI think role models will have to come forward,ö Mirza said. ôThat is one reason I had to.ö

An awesome time was had!
Enjoyed the whole concept of the '140 Characters or Less' since I use Twitter for news updates and sports scores. I laughed at many of the Tweets _ I thought the Comedy Show was smart, fresh & funny. I like to support local comics and these were all local Rochester Comedians ! Saturday's Show will be funny too #tofunny - it's at 3 o'clock. @Mich587 #rocfringe140
Very good note that the performers in 140 characters didn't give out our twitter handles, you can follow me on Twitter @RalphTetta. You may also search the hashtags #jokesforsale #cheap to focus on comedy postings and not just my regular rants. Thank you for reviewing the show, I personally had a great time working outside of the regular standup comedy format, and I believe everyone on the show would say the same. Many thanks to Dario Josef for conceiving and implementing the show. There's another show at 3 PM on Saturday at RAPA with a different slate of performers and I highly recommend that anyone who missed Thursday night's show check it out for themselves.
Thank you, Rebecca, and City Newspaper, for this stunning review of this play. I had the privilege of meeting Rachel's parents, who have taken up the mantel of holding Israel accountable for its actions, whether it is through the Israeli courts or through the kind of non-violent action such as BDS. Their own expression of "steadfastness" is an inspiration to all who work for justice and peace in the Middle East.
Well said, Ron!
Is she singing again?
The play is not political art because it is not a made-up story; it is biographical non-fiction. But in the history of theatre, there is long tradition of performances of fiction written to address issues of current events that are central to society itself, encouraging consciousness and social change. "My Name is Rachel Corrie" is rather an expose' of suppressed information, that has escaped from the corral, by virtue of its literary merit. A very fortunate diary, written with no idea of its future importance. Ron Johnson
Thank you for point out their names, Mark. The text has been corrected.
What a stirring performance, about hope and action in the face of conditions which the reviewer so aptly describes - "v iolently-enforced curfews, infrastructure- and livelihood-destroying checkpoints, a growing abundance of sniper towers, the perpetual buzz of Apache helicopters, destroyed wells and greenhouses, and the daily threat to houses by bulldozer or tank-mounted missiles" - as unadulterated terrorism. Terrorism done TO the Palestinians.
Great review, Casey. Alaina's last name is Olivieri, and Yuko's is Hashimoto.
Beautiful job as always by Carl and Janine! Props to Ralph's direction, and Kat's lighting. And, a special bravo to musical director/pianist Andy Pratt. This music isn't easy to sing or play-- it takes a seriously talented professional.
I walked backwards in front of the tricycle for 18 minutes and filmed much of the action up close and personal. Security was in the impossible position of creating a path through a packed crowd who had no space to move. In 62 years I have seen many shows and events but this was a one of a kind experience. It was surreal to adults and the stuff of nightmares to the younger attendee. A father with his daughter on his shoulders behind me in the crush of people kept saying, "close your eyes and cover your ears, I cannot get you out of here". The lights, the fire and smoke, the sounds, the costumes, and the actions of the actors disoriented the crowd. Probably 99% of the crowd saw less than 5 minutes of the tricycle moving through the park because it was impossible to see over the heads of the crowd once the procession got 10 or 15 feet away from the observer. I can understand why most of the crowd was disappointed and frustrated to not be able to see what was happening because they missed an incredible experience. I will edit my video footage and post to you tube once it is finished. I will post a link here.
You were lucky if you could see any of it. This was the wrong venue for this. Plus the security people were less than helpful, I would say snarky. The only thing we could see was the fire shooting up at one point. At the Grand Finale if you were behind the Tricycle, as many people were, the only thing you could see was the cage in the air. Everything in front of the tricycle was blocked. Very frustrating. If they looked at the site someone should have realized this was a mistake. There are a lot of folks who would not have said this was a fun event, but an unorganized mob scene.
I agree with Mr. Schila's characterization of "Tricycle" as "an incredible spectacle." I attended with my two kids, ages 10 and 12. We were far away from the early part of the performance, and I was worried that they would get bored. Toward the end, the tricycle rolled right past us. We were well positioned to enjoy the finale. After the show was finished, my kids declared it the greatest thing they had ever seen!
I learned more about the narrative from reading this review than I did from experiencing the performance. What a fun event!
What is with the anglophilia? The Edinburgh Festival is constantly mentioned and the media spots are done with a British accent. I didn't notice any groups from the UK in the Festival Guide and the festival seem to have no connection with Edinburgh. The festival is largely local groups which I would say will be a good thing especially if it starts people working in advance on shows for subsequent festivals.
Toronto has had a Fringe Festival for 25 years and they do have groups from the UK. Why not mention them? Local groups have appeared there. They have 140 acts at 25 venues and run 12 days. My recollection is that each show is presented seven times so there are 800 peformances. . Shows start at noon and run all day. http://fringetoronto.com/ . Closer to home Buffalo has an "infringement" festival which seems pretty democratic. http://infringebuffalo.org/missionstatement.php
Congratulations to the Rochester Fringe! A correction: Not all Fringe Festivals charge a performance fee. New Orleans Fringe does not charge a performance fee. Wish you all a great festival!

PM Narendra Modi in his Independence Day speech had announced that the Commission would be abolished and replaced with a more relevant institution.
It was a decisive mandate for a change of government during a politically and economically supercharged 2014 that finally led to its epitaph being written.
A meeting called by the PM to discuss the future of the Planning Commission today saw most CMs favouring restructuring of the body.
A Congress member today asked the government to desist from any move to "dismantle" the Planning Commission and sought steps to strengthen it.
PM said government was planning to involve knowledgeable people and those who can provide new ideas to redefine and restructure the Planning Commission.
An exercise for undertaking the mid-term appraisal of the 12th Five Year Plan has been internally initiated in the Commission at official level.
"Instead of setting up a new body, it may be more appropriate to assign the decision-making responsibilities of the Planning Commission to the ISC," she suggested.
Finance Minister Arun Jaitley today said a principle of 'cooperative federalism' is being followed in setting up the new body in place of Planning Commission.

SDSU-Syracuse game on carrier may be canceled
Instead, Kidd and a local group of businessmen proposed an annual game on the Midway involving SDSU against a high-profile opponent.
Aztecs coach Steve Fisher met with Syracuse counterpart Jim Boeheim during the NCAA Final Four in New Orleans last April and convinced him to travel to the Pacific Time Zone for a one-off, nonconference game for the first time in 14 years. During the Summer Olympics in London, where he served as an assistant coach on Team USA, Boeheim talked about his excitement for the game and having his team practice outdoors on campus to acclimate to shooting in the elements.
If the game is canceled, that would leave SDSU with 29 regular-season games instead of 30, and finding a replacement game against Division I opponent on such short notice is unlikely.

Join Meir Panim's campaign to "light up" Chanukah for families in need.
"So a month later I had surgery; they crushed the boulder and removed it. I went home in hope and patiently waited for my situation to improve, vis a vis the pain.
"Two months went by with my still having horrible pain. I went back to the doctors and new tests were done. Now they found a non-malignant tumor in my stomach, resting on my adrenal gland (which explained the perspiration and hormonal imbalance and nervous system issues – beyond the paralysis)."
At this point, reading the anguish on my face, Chaim K. tells me not to worry – the story has a happy ending.
He continues…
"On the day they told me about the tumor I thought: 'What a miserable human being I must be to that so much punishment meted on me, is this what I deserve?'
"After I finally recovered from the first surgery I went into the second one.
"When I returned home, Baruch Hashem, my medical/pain situation began to improve. Two years of pain and suffering later, I had almost given up on being my normal again – and then I had my first pain free minute! Well, that feeling was short-lived and I realized that Hashem put a new challenge in front of me. I had to overcome the addictions to all the pain medications and heavy narcotics that had been prescribed (one way or another) and learn to live with the pain.
"As if I needed a new challenge.
"At the beginning I tried to go 'cold turkey' reducing the amount of narcotic pills and patches I was using. I very quickly discovered that this was an impossible task on my own. One night I saw a television program about a group of people who were addicted to pain medicine and lo and behold, the medication I had been taking was on the top of the list. They talked about a new procedure that a Dr. Weizman had developed to wean patients off of medications without having to go through the harrowing pain of withdrawal. It was an absolutely brilliant and simple idea. The addict was anaesthetized and injected with a formula that would clean out the opiates. The procedure was reported to cost $20,000 in the United States.
"The next day I did some research and was surprised to learn that Dr. Weizman was an Israeli who works HERE in Barzilai hospital in Ashkelon!
"I was so happy and felt that it was hashgacha pratit, Hashem had answered my prayers.
"To make a very long story shorter, I scheduled a meeting with the doctor. He was, and is, a very good person; actually I call him my angel. He offered to do the procedure completely pro-bono, allowing my insurance to cover all expenses and not taking a penny (agura) for himself! His standard fee is over $15,000 not including hospital fees.
"He set up everything for me in lightning speed. In a few days, (you can imagine how quick that is here), I was checked in at Barzilai as a patient of Dr. Weizman's.
"Well, really it came after two to three weeks of withdrawal, but I came out of the tunnel seeing the world as if for the first time. No pain and a renewed and revised attitude to life.
You have to thank Hashem for every second of goodness, health and happiness in your life, and remember that it can always be worse. Even in my darkest hours there was a glimmer of that axiom, It Can Always Be Worse.
"So when you are in a bad place, and you feel it can't get worse, remember my story and me, and know that you should always be thankful for what you do have."

Without warning, the first awareness of an onset of a serious accident or illness brings with it a dawn of a new world, complete, as it were, with its own natural laws that are not always clear to the uninitiated. This leaves both the "newbie" and his or her family, feeling that they have landed in a strange new world without a passport or travel guide.
It is more than a year since I have seen Chaim K. The last time was when he was hospitalized here at Shaare Zedek's Pain Clinic with intractable pain. I had kept in touch with him and his doctor, and had recently noticed that he changed his picture on Facebook. When I asked him if he wanted to meet, he answered in the affirmative, and today he "rolled" in smiling.

This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick
Pros: Accurate, solidly built joystick with good feel and motion.
Cons: Focuses on being an accurate replica over being a perfect PC joystick.
Other Thoughts: Don't forget to get rudder pedals - there is no twist.
Did you find this review helpful?
you'll never touch your old stick again
This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick
Pros: Thrustmaster did something simply amazing for the community by making this joystick(flightstick is better fit, feels like the real thing), my brother who is an actual A-321 driver actually says the Thrustmaster flight stick feels heavier than his plane's...
Cons: not really con, but the throttle indent for the idle stage could have been made better, sometime the pc does not pickup movement from idle to power for startup. but overall good throttle.

Fly to new heights!
This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick
Pros: Every thing they said it was. The feel is outstanding, HEAVY, Not for the faint of heart at their price. This is an awesome set up! Very accurate, It is right on the money with reaction. When you let go it is centered there is now wobbling around it stays at zero point. Not sure thats the right vocabulary but you get my point. I LOVE IT!! The lighting just adds to an already outstanding product. If only they made everything this way. I'm sure this thing will last for YEARS!!!!
Cons: Throttle handle is plastic, Drivers are outdated from 2011, No FAQ on their site just help files for installation. win 8.1 user beware. They have replied promptly with help only to direct me to Windows problems solving. They really need to do updates on their drivers. Needs more info for this I spent 8 hours so far trying to get it to work right. Works with win generic drivers from 2006 though. Not many profile maps so you have to create your own. Newegg would not match others price.
Other Thoughts: I first saw this on here at the price of 596. Saw it at Wally world for 419. After I called on it they lowered it to 499. But for what I spent on it this is the greatest thing since breaking the 640 mg ram barrier! Despite all the agravation of installing it, I will not give it up for nothing. Nothing even compares! Of course I bought it at Wally World. So much for price matching.

Gold Standard in Combat Flight Simming
This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick
Pros: Thrustmaster Warthog hands on throttle and stick (HOTAS) is the finest throttle and flight stick controller you can currently buy on the consumer market. It is the gold standard in combat flight simulation. The flight stick alone, the quality of it is worth the entire price of the system.
Cons: Plasticy parts on the throttle, not what i would expect for a very expensive controller. Having owned the TM Cougar, this was the biggest disappointment was the amount plastic on the throttle.
Other Thoughts: In order to calibrate the joystick and throttle manually you'll need to get a utility from TM that isn't linked directly on their site.

Warthog HOTAS
This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick
Pros: Finest joystick you will ever use. Feels like the real thing. Movement is stiffer than a plastic joystick, but more realistic. Heavy, sturdy, well-made. Plenty of switches on both stick & throttle (quality ones, not cheap ones). Very smooth reaction times in flight sim programs.
Cons: Throttle rear detent for engine cutoff is a bit stiff (pulling throttle levers up & back from rearmost position), but this may be by design. No other issues.
Other Thoughts: This is the real deal. Use it & you will never want to go back to a plastic joystick again. This was meant to last.

wow, just wow
This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick
Pros: Durability, smooth actions, switch construction, software.
Cons: price...slightly
Other Thoughts: You really get what you pay for, this bad boy blows every saitek out of the water. The devices are sturdy, the switches are very well made, and the action on both the main stick and the throttle is as smooth as butter. The switches in particular are impressive, I spent 8 years in aviation in both the army and in the civilian sector and they are as sturdy as you will find inside a cockpit. The only downside to the stick is the resistance on the afterburner catch. if you flip the stopper around to add in that resistance you literally have to lift the throttles to get them past the detent. Even at 13 pounds on the throttle, the main body will still lift off the surface you have it sitting on. If you plan on using the ab detent, screw this bad boy to your desk or something

THE Flight control system to buy!
This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick
Pros: Sturdy, Stable, made from quality material, adds to the "Immersion level" of the flight sim, or combat flight sim of your choice. fully adaptable and programable to suit your play style and preferances. Backlight switch lables in "NVG" (Night vision Goggles) green (Backlight intensity user configurable).
Cons: A bit of a steep learning curve starting out, doesn't come with many pre-set profiles (although they are easily found on the internet) I guess the price point puts this out of reach for some, But, save! Scrimp! Scrounge! Make a sandwich at home instead of dropping by the drive through a couple times a week. It all adds up, and you'll get there, and I promise you, it's worth the effort, scarifice and monitery restraint.
Other Thoughts: As you know, this based on the A-10 "Warthog", and there is a very good, and quite well known combat flight simulator based on this aircraft. For me it's neat to press a button, or flip a switch that's labled with it's functionality, and to see that translated on screennjust the way you would in the REAL thing is reaally cool.

Worth the money
This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick
Pros: Simply the closet you can get without enlisting. Fully mechanical switches that are a pleasure to use. Perfect precision in DCS sims and great for FSX. If you have the money and are a serious simmer you must treat yourself to this! Very high build quality , it will last forever.
Cons: Very pricey to the level of decadence.

This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick

Thrustmaster HOTAS
This review is from: THRUSTMASTER 2960720 Hotas Warthog Joystick
Pros: SOLID SOLID SOLID !!!! Great and solid build! Haven't seen anything else that would be even close to the quality of this product. Heavy, solid metal parts (not a plastic cheap look and feel), large platform that could be mounted to the surface. Easy software download and install. The trhottle control is simply awesome! I never regreted I purchesed this product in spite of the high price.
Cons: Price, maybe...Buttons on the joystick could also be metal-made (not really a cons).
Other Thoughts: Although, I do not use it for DCS A-10 game, it works great in FSX (Flight Simulator X) and I love it!

Temporally profiled pulsed radiation of the Nd:YAG laser was applied to drilling and micromachining of ceramics, steel, and CVD diamond, demonstrating one or two orders of magnitude enhancement of ablation rates compared to conventional pico- and nanosecond-pulsed ablation at the same energy density. The developed laser system delivered combined pulses consisting of a picosecond pulse train followed by a nanosecond pulse train. The combination of picosecond and nanosecond components within one laser shot turned out to be especially beneficial for high-aspect-ratio channel formation. Polarization dependence of the ablated deep crater morphology was observed in AlN samples. Waveguide radiation propagation in self-made deep channels as well as the influence of high-temperature laser-produced plasma on this phenomena are discussed.

I haven't blogged in forever! I've been on sparkpeople, but not as active as I should be. I'm trying to focus on being more balanced in my weight loss/maintenance. I'm getting married in fall now, and family right after that. I'd like to work dieting out of my life so that I can raise a child without him/her seeing mom track food or complain about pants not fitting. Better to start now than AFTER wedding and baby, I guess.
Reading some of my old posts I realize I'm doing a lot better now, though. I don't think I even realized how stressed out I was! I have and have had a job that I love the past year, and I never realized how much that can help. Just having a full time job I enjoy doesn't just help me deal with my debt, but my self esteem too. Having a routine instead of working multiple crazy part time jobs is great.
That's all, folks!
So..... I've had a tough couple of days. This journey has been very long and after two years I'm finding myself more frustrated then ever. I was reminded of another time when I had a big goal that turned into a situation in which the journey was so difficult that the end result was not worth it. I wanted to be a CPA, applied thinking I was good to go for the exam and was told that I hadn't met the criteria. I was devestated but "persevered" and ended up spending a fortune on another degree only to be told no 18 months later when I AGAIN applied.
So I gave up. But that's an oversimplification. The truth was I became so OBSESSED with this goal that I was making myself miserable and comletely forgot why I wanted a CPA in the first place - to get a better career.
Well, I "gave up" on the CPA and guess what? I have a better career! And I'm more relaxed and happy.
I think I am now doing the same thing with my health. I am obessed with the scale because just like having a CPA is a mark of having a good career having a weight of 128 lbs (my goal that I hit little over a year ago) is a mark of good health. But I don't feel at all healthy. I hate tracking food, I hate weigh ins and I yoyo the same 5-10 lbs each month, sometimes within a week. Yeah, I've gained at my worst 8 lbs. in ONE WEEK.
I think this goal weight has to go where the CPA has gone. Today is that I am putting away the scale, keeping a journal and focusing on what I SHOULD eat and HOW I FEEL. No more 5-6 days of eating 100% to plan and then 3 days of binging and guilt. Each day I will eat to feel my best. If I am hungry, I will have a snack and not worry about going over my calories. If I'm not hungry, I won't eat. I don't HAVE to eat something so I'm not "hungry later" If I'm hungry later, I can eat later. Yeesh. Just typing that I realize how crazy this has become, lol!
This is going to be hard though. I like to quantify things (accounting major, lol!) and measure my success that way. But it's really hurting me so I need to do this for me.
I really feel like it is. First my relationship with my boyfriend has made a huge turn for the better after we broke up for a week. We realized we really do love each other and got back together and have been doing great since and even talk about having a family and spending the rest of our lives together.
Now today I just got a phone call offering me a great job, which of course I accepted! It's minutes from home and the pay is good so I can put a dent in that credit card and then work on my student loans. Oh yeah, I can also say good bye to working every Saturday! So not only is my personal life taking a turn for the better, but I can rest easy knowing that when we do commit to each other I won't be going into a marriage burdened with debt that I have to ask my husband to help me with.
I just cannot believe my luck, for the first time in years I really feel that life is looking up for me! The ironic thing is, none of this happened until I accepted the life that I had and make peace with it. When I realized my boyfriend might not love me and made peace with having to go back home to my parents and that I might not (at nearly 30) find a love again at least not one that I would start a family with, he told me that he really did love me and that he wanted to try and work things. We've been much happier since. And then I decided that maybe I was just going to work part-time and be poor my whole life but that it was ok because I was surrounded by people who love and care for me, BOOM! Job offer! Even better - all the decisions that I regretted lead up to me getting this job. I was so sorry I went back to school because of the debt, but during the interview they were so excited to see how much I valued education!
Sorry for long blog, but I'm just so happy now I haven't felt this way in ages! I don't know how long I was laughing and crying after I got that call, but I feel great - and BEST OF ALL - during all this stress (good and bad) I haven't turned to food ONCE and that's how it's staying! Personal, financial and physical health are all lookin' up from here!
Just broke up with my boyfriend of 5 years and feeling really down. Am in the process of taking my necessaries to my parents 2 room condo until I find a place of my own. Have no idea how I'm going to do that on my salary, which is barely $1,000 a month.
I just feel numb. He's the only man I ever loved for any amount of time, much less 5 years. All of my best memories of the last 5 years are with him. I feel embarrassed of all things, because everyone was so sure it would work out and we were perfect for each other. Life sure if full of surprises.
I have to be positive that something good will come my way soon because it's just been so hard. Two years of a disastrous attempt at sitting for the CPA (twice they denied my application over bureaucratic fine print and they lost my case that challenged my qualifications to sit after I spend $30,000 on ANOTHER degree to meet their requirements) and now a failed relationship. The more "good" decisions I make, the worse things get.
Life is full of surprises, I'm just ready for a good one for a change. Time to visit my nephews I think. They're 3 and 4 yrs old and think I'm da bomb! :-) Nothing like a little toddler love to boost your self esteem!
I think I feel worst for my cat though. He was SOOOOOPER happy in our big town house, three floors to run around and no kids or other pets. Now it's back to one room, visiting children and my mom's b*tchy cat that he's afraid of! Poor guy...
So my boyfriend decides to tell me at noon that we're leaving soon to go to Thanksgiving lunch at his parents. LUNCH!? This whole time I've been acting like it's dinnner and he never corrected me. It's even on my calendar in the kitchen 3pm - Thanksgiving dinner.
I hadn't started cooking my vegan dish, and now I'm rushing to finish it. That's not why I was crying though. I thought it was dinner but asked anyhow if maybe we could stop at my sister's house after since they really wanted to see us and he said probably wouldn't be time. His parents do live about an hour away so I figure it's ok, we see my family all the time anyhow it's only Thanksgiving.
But how do we not have time to stop by if we're having lunch at his parents? He's either lazy and doesn't want to drive an extra fifteenn minutes, doesn't care that I get to see my family, was hoping I'd decide to go to theirs without him so I wouldn't be at his, or doesn't like my family period. I'm not sure what's worse.
And now I have to spend the whole DAY with his family, knowing what a better time I'd be having if I was just with my sister, parents and nephews. But he doesn't care. Wont' apologize for not telling me when "dinner" was either.

I am soliciting input and opinion out there on which car gives a more satisfying ride.
Price wise, they are comparable. I am coming from just a pure performance perspective; nothing on the EV vs ICE technology, fuel cost savings and so forth; just pure unadulterated performance.
I test drove the P85 a few weeks ago and while i think its straight-line performance is nothing short of awesome, i feel that it is somewhat lacking when it comes to steering feel/handling around corners. Don't get me wrong; it is no slouch by any stretch of the imagination but when we are talking about cars with sticker price above $100k, we have to compare it against the creme de la creme so to speak. Perhaps it is the curb weight that is at play but who knows. Here is where I really hope the performance plus package (P85+) comes into the equation and save the day given that Elon claims "super car" territory handling. I called Tesla and unfortunately they don't have a test vehicle yet that is equipped with the performance plus package. So there is no way to confirm this one way or the other.
Incidentally, I am also very interested in the Panamera GTS. I know the looks isn't for everyone but to me it looks appealing. As it turns out, there is already a review out there by Edmunds comparing these cars.
The test numbers kind of confirm my suspicion. From the specs listed, this is not even a regular P85. It looks like a P85+ indeed, perhaps Elon's own personal souped-up version of the P85. Straight line kudos go to Tesla (albeit barely) but skidpad/slalom has the GTS well in the clear. If these are the numbers from the P85+, they are somewhat dissapointing given Elon's claim. I would conclude from just that review alone, the GTS "outperforms" the "P85+". I am putting quotes around the P85 because i suspect it is the P85+ based on the specs listed but who knows if it is going to be the actual final version of the production cars equipped with the performance plus package($10k option).
I have scheduled a test drive session for the Panamera GTS. Would really love to get behind the wheel of a GTS and see what it can really do. There are other rave reviews out there on the GTS that backs up the "unreal" handling comment from the Edmunds review. Hopefully, I can also test drive a production P85+ soon which should provide me with sufficient data to make an informed decision on which machine is ultimately for me.
Please chime in with your thoughts.
Was the p85+ ride harsher?
Anyone know if we can upgrade a p85 to p85+?
Congratulations! I think everyone here expected it, but you have to experience it for yourself. Now the worst part is waiting for delivery!
Were you able to drive a P85 and P85+ back to back? I think it would be hard to be certain if you drive them days apart. Very reassuring first report though.... thank you.
THANK YOU!! Can't wait! Still have a little hope though that the P+ will be a tiny bit faster than P to 60 :)
I think that the P+ is probably .1 sec quicker to 60. The original Motor Trend test was on Elons car which had a forerunner to the P+ package and it did 60 in 3.9 and subsequent Model S was off the production line and it did 60 in 4.0. It seems that Tesla has done considerable tweaking since then on the handling dept.
Would really appreciate getting other first hand reports on the P+ handling and noise.
can you let us know what you have driven in the past so we have a frame of reference? M5? C63?
essendon2000 - Welcome to the fold.
DAMNIT! Not I want to upgrade my Signature P85 to plus! :( Thanks a lot essendon2000 ... :)
I am an avid AMG fan; more so on their NA engines. Not so crazy with their current line of FI offerings unfortunately.
My family own both the Panamera 4S and Panamera GTS, I can seriously say, everyone in my family loves the car a lot, that we had to keep both to keep everyone happy. We also have a Cayenne GTS as well. you can tell we really love our porsches.
While, I think the Model S would be a better car for daily grind, an electric car still does not and will never provide the traditional feel and sportiness of an ICE sports sedan. The Model S is a very fast car, but its not a car I would like to drive fast or just go for a cruise in.
@Godzpeed I assume you have a lot of experience driving a Model S based on your statement.
Having come from a new 911S and competition package 2011 M3 sedan, I don't think an ICE could ever compare to the benefits of the P85 and especially the plus version. Tesla did with one model what other companies had over a century. Time for a revolution and I feel bad for people who go out and get a new MB S class or 7 series or P car without checking the S.
That is a good set of reference cars. Could you take a minute to give us your take on the differences between E63 and P85+ suspension?
If I were you and you were me, I'd look no further than the Porsche Panamera Turbo S. True performance from a gorgeously sculpted car. Build quality is excellent and its quiet at speed (unlike the Tesla from what's been stated) with specially laminated windows etc. Sure, if electrical propulsion is your thing, then have at the Tesla. However, if you're looking for a true sports car with more performance than you'll ever need, do with the Turbo S.
And the cost of the panamera turbo S is over $80k MORE than the Tesla S p85+ !. Porsche must be quaking in their boots at the thought that Tesla might one day add another motor to the front and still cost less.
The P85+ does everything that the E63 does well and then some.
I love the handling dynamics of the E63 but the P85+ takes it to another level thus making the driver feel even more "connected" to the road but definitely not at the expense of ride quality. The ride on the E63 may be a tad jarring/harsh at its highest setting but the P85+ seems to take it all in stride even on the 21"
The P85+ seems to be more hunkered down in corners and more ready/eager to comply to changes in lateral or sideway movements like on a winding road. Slalom comes to mind.
P85+ also seems more sure-footed when performing high-speed maneuvers like lane switching and passing/merging.
The E63 does all of these things very well mind you, as you would expect from an AMG, but the P85+ just does them that much better and with seemingly less effort all at the same time.
And the cost of the panamera turbo S is over $80k MORE than the Tesla S p85+ !. Porsche must be quaking in their boots at the thought that Tesla might one day add another motor to the front and still cost less.
Sorry, did noot mean to post the same thing twice
lph - Where are you shopping for your Panamera? I can't find a Turbo S, just a turbo and an executive (at 140k and 160k respectively).
Great to hear some comparisons of these machines!
@EMDoc A lot of recent S class, 750i or Panamera owners are probably kicking themselves why they did not hear the Model S before. I also think Porsche's glory days are probably behind them. MS and MX are going to take a lot of market away from them. They might have to go back to the days that they were just a struggling 911 maker. I say this as a current Porsche owner.
@carlk - Agreed. I planned to keep the 911 and M3 but they felt so old after my MS test drive. The other companies are years behind Tesla but have many more resources. I hope Tesla can stay ahead of the game.
And the fact that there are no stealerships just sweetens the deal. So, are you selling your Porsche or adding the MS? I do agree with Porsche engineering being amazing...now if they can implement the same tech as Tesla (but vw may muck things up).
"You plan to keep"
I still have my BMW S1000RR and I have to push myself to run it enough to keep the battery charged as it sits next to my MY13 Zero DS. My Maranello is feeling equally neglected thanks to MS.
Normally I would chalk this up to the new toy syndrome. However, we are going on a year for the bike and four months for MS. My new toy attention span is not that long thus I suspect this is a permanent change in behavior.
The point of all the above is I think you may find your other toys are neglected (unless of course you do things like track days at which point they will get their thrashing).
@lolachampcar -
I had planned to keep the M3. Put it on sale after finalizing my P85 and sold it early April. I'm glad I did. 18.4 mpg vs a solar powered home and car with little maintenance.
The Maranello is beautiful. I love the 430 and Italia. But I would never purchase an ICE though I always pictured having a Ferrari someday. The 911S was amazing but the MS is simply the best!
I was trailing a Panamera Turbo in which the guy had been driving a bit too aggressively. It was time to teach him a lesson. We came to a red light and I pulled up next to him in my P85. Green light......I hear heavy rev's from his car, my car silently wasted him. By a full car-length. I was actually surprised I beat him by so much because I know that car has a stated 0-60 of 4.0. We turned onto another main thoroughfare and he continued to try to keep up with me to no avail and finally just gave up. Loving Tesla!!!!!!
The antics required of a performance ICE's control modules to get good 0-60 times is silly when compared to the MS where you simply press the big pedal on the right and you have instant acceleration. My daily averages are around 310WHr/mile and yet my foot hovers over the right pedal and, when the light turns green, I leave everything just sitting there. I'd like to think it is my super reaction times but I know better :)
Right. Those published ICE 0-60 time are done by professional drivers and the best picked out of many tries. It takes a lot of skills to launch a high power car. Any dummy, although no MS owner is, can probably get the 4.2 or so time in the first try. That's the beauty of the car for the average or above average drivers.
@EMDoc I plan to keep my Cayman S for now and see what happens. The two are very different cars. I may still want to drive the two seater from time to time but who knows.
The best part about the Model S is that altitude and temperature should not have much effect. It was very hot out coming home from work Tuesday, and I floored my 911S. Between the heat and 5,000ft above sea level, the acceleration wasn't great. When I went up to Park City last summer it was even worse. The Model S should be even faster at high altitude because there will be less wind resistance but the same power from the motor.... Can't wait!
I'm looking to trade my Cayenne (Manual Transmission) I've always driven a manual... As a twist, how do the manual drivers feel driving electric. It's like ALL your work is taken away
I have a 911 I'll be keeping, for times when I need to do more than 200 miles, or just want to be old-fashioned and change my own gears. Who knows, maybe after a few months, I'll sell the 911. We don't have a whole lot of published charging stations on Long Island, if that changes.... hmmm...
I've only owned manual cars. The regen braking on the Model S is very engaging to me and has almost become telepathic. Don't miss shifting. I think if the regen was implemented on the brake pedal the car would be not nearly as fun.

Wow Wow Wow! What an epic night and insane experience. Of course I'm talking about the #CaptivatedByYouSleepover celebrating Sylvia Day's fourth book in the Crossfire series. What could be better than cuddling up for a whole night of reading in the beautiful Ampersand Hotel, accompanied by a pamper package including chocolates, strawberries, bubbly, candles... the answer - nothing!
Captivated by You is out today- but I had the privilege of receiving it last night… and stayed up all night to read it! (so excuse the interesting English you might be about to encounter...)
So – what's it like? Firstly, let me promise that there are absolutely no spoilers in what you're about to read.
Captivated by You is as hot and steamy as any die-hard Sylvia Day fan could wish for. As a reader, you're quickly drawn into Eva and Gideon's wealthy world, damaged psyches and rampant naughtiness. We get to watch as both of them push at new boundaries, testing each other's limits in every way imaginable. This book is all about the characters and their development rather than a huge amount of plot progression – so expect plenty of emotion rather than action.
Captivated By You is definitely part of a much larger jigsaw. The story arc is a part of the five-book picture. If you're new to the Crossfire books, there is now far too much back story for this to work as a stand-alone novel and you'd be much better starting at Bared to You – book one in the series and working your way through.
If you've been looking forward to Captivated by You- grab your copy here , and I really hope you have as much fun reading your copy as I did with mine. And why not try your own #CaptivatedByYouSleepover – grab your PJs, some friends, strawberries, chocolates and bubbly and
*A huge thank you to Penguin Books, Premier and The Ampersand Hotel for the amazing #CaptivatedByYouSleepover experience!*
The Blurb:
Gideon calls me his angel, but he's the miracle in my life. My gorgeous, wounded warrior, so determined to slay my demons while refusing to face his own.
The vows we'd exchanged should have bound us tighter than blood and flesh. Instead they opened up old wounds, exposed pain and insecurities, and lured bitter enemies out of the shadows. I felt him slipping from my grasp; my greatest fears becoming my reality; my love tested in ways I wasn't sure I was strong enough to bear.
At the brightest time in our lives, the darkness of his past encroached and threatened everything we'd worked so hard for. We faced a terrible choice: the familiar safety of the lives we'd had before each other or the fight for a future that suddenly seemed an impossible and hopeless dream . . .
