Maple Leafs' goaltending plans top secret
GM Brian Burke trying to find right goalie to carry the load, but not impede progress of James Reimer and Ben Scrivens.

NEW YORK—With only a handful of veteran goalies available — Tomas Vokoun will be an unrestricted free agent and Roberto Luongo looking for a trade out of Vancouver — Leafs GM Brian Burke played his netminding card close to his chest.
"It's certainly nothing we can discuss publicly," said Burke, emerging from the league's general managers' meeting. "We're trying to evaluate what we have and what we can get and go from there."
He says the team is trying to find the right goalie to carry a significant load, but not impede the progress of James Reimer and Ben Scrivens.
"We're trying to sort that out," said Burke.
Meanwhile, Burke said winger Matt Frattin has had knee surgery. Frattin — the Marlies' leading scorer — will miss the rest of the AHL playoffs after hurting his knee in Game 5 against Oklahoma City.
"It's unfortunate, because he was playing really well," said Burke. "It's part of the job. He should be fine."
Burke also sounded very high on Leo Komarov, a 25-year-old forward who spent the last three seasons with Moscow Dynamo. He was the Leafs' seventh choice, 180th overall, in 2006. He was part of Finland's gold medal winning entry at this year's world championship.
"He's a pain in the ass," said Burke, who signed the winger this week. "He's really hard to play against. He's big and he skates and makes life miserable for people. My kind of guy."
The 5-foot-11, 198-pound forward played 46 games for Dynamo this season, collecting 24 points on 11 goals and 13 assists with 58 penalty minutes. He ranked second on the team in penalty minutes and third in points. In 20 playoff games, he registered five goals, two assists and 49 penalty minutes as Dynamo won their first KHL championship.
Komarov was born in Narva, Estonia, but moved to Finland at a young age.

AP Sports Writer
ASHBURN, Va. (AP) — Kirk Cousins is the starting quarterback for the Washington Redskins. For this week, anyway.
After that, he will once again become Robert Griffin III's understudy, a job he fully understands and one that has involved more work over the past two years than he could have imagined. Since both were drafted in 2012, Cousins has subbed for Griffin in some form or fashion in eight regular season games — that's one out of every four — and also finished a playoff loss to Seattle after RG3 was injured.
"I have aspirations to someday be a starter," Cousins said. "And I can't do that until I do my job as a backup. I can't look down the road too far. I need to be ready as a backup, which means play well in the preseason and when called upon. Coming off the bench in the fourth quarter in December in a blizzard, I've got to be ready. And if I'm not, I'll never be a starter."
Despite Griffin's preseason struggles — particularly in a loss to Baltimore on Saturday — there is no hint of a quarterback controversy inside the walls of Redskins Park. While it's true that Cousins, a natural pocket-passer, currently appears to have a better grasp of new coach Jay Gruden's offense, it's still felt that Griffin has more of the talent and upside needed to make the Redskins a championship contender.
Gruden considered having the first-team offense play a series or two in Thursday's preseason finale against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers so that Griffin could end the preseason on the right note, but the coach decided against it. This, therefore, will be Cousins' last expected start until next preseason. Unless there's a trade, another Griffin injury or a stunning change of heart by the organization, the fourth-round pick from Michigan State will spend his first four NFL seasons waiting for his contract to run out so he can go somewhere else and compete for a No. 1 spot.
Staying focused for that long can very hard.
"That's the challenge, right?" he said. "We as humans are going to naturally relax when we don't think we're the guy, and that's the challenge, that's what when the character gets tested, and that's why not everybody can do this, and not everybody lasts, and not everybody plays 12 years because it is challenging. And we're going to try to withstand the test of time and see what happens, but hopefully I'll still be here in 12 years talking to you guys."
Cousins played well in four appearances in 2012 when Griffin was injured, but he failed to make any kind of statement when he started the final three games last season after Griffin was shut down by coach Mike Shanahan. Given the state of the franchise at the time — Shanahan was in his tension-filled last days — it's doubtful any quarterback could have tuned out the drama and put up superb numbers.
Regardless, it's not Cousins' style to make waves and demand a fair fight. When it comes to saying the right things, the Redskins couldn't ask for a better backup.
"I try to fill the role that the coach and the organization asks of me," he said. "And what they've asked of me is to be a backup. I can't create a role that's not there. The role for me is to be a backup, and, doggone it, I'm going to be the best backup I can be."

Chicago – The title event of "Gett: The Trial of Viviane Amsalem" is a prison sentence with no predictable day of release. The prisoner is Viviane (a fascinating Ronit Elkabetz), a soft-spoken middle-aged woman well beyond the point of a content unhappiness. She is trapped to a farce, as the divorce laws of Israel demand that a husband agree to the divorce before it can be finalized, with three rabbis and a lawyer each to discuss the event.
Viviane's desire to start a new life away from her current husband Elisha (Simon Abkarian) becomes a hell on earth as he proves an unmovable object, a warden with no empathy who refuses to show up for many of the hearings (he doesn't really have to unless it gets really bad, according to law). It takes him about a year and a half to finally appear first time, and even »

Everyone knows Woody Allen. At least, everyone thinks they know Woody Allen. His plumage is easily identifiable: horn-rimmed glasses, baggy suit, wispy hair, kvetching demeanor, ironic sense of humor, acute fear of death. As is his habitat: New York City, though recently he has flown as far afield as London, Barcelona, and Paris. His likes are well known: Bergman, Dostoevsky, New Orleans jazz. So too his dislikes: spiders, cars, nature, Wagner records, the entire city of Los Angeles. Whether or not these traits represent the true Allen, who's to say? It is impossible to tell, with Allen, where cinema ends and life begins, an obfuscation he readily encourages. In the late nineteen-seventies, disillusioned with the comedic success he'd found making such films as Sleeper (1973), Love and Death (1975), and Annie Hall (1977), he turned for darker territory with Stardust Memories (1980), a film in which, none too surprisingly, he plays a »

Barton: Hate Crimes Legislation Designed to Imprison Pastors
I think that is has, by now, been pretty well established that David Barton is a Religious Right pseudo-historian with a stunning disregard for the veracity of his statements who is willing to sacrifice truthfulness for the benefit of promoting his right-wing agenda.
We have watched countless hours of Barton's standard presentation over the years; all of them very similar but also regularly including different little nuggest of nonsense that compel us to keep watching because we never know when Barton is going to drop in something new and ridiculous.
Back in 2008, Barton delivered just such a presentation to Pastor Miles McPherson's Rock Church in California and the video was recently uploaded to the church's Vimeo account ... and we are grateful that it was because it contains one of the most absurdly false statements we have ever seen Barton make.
Barton was discussing the importance of Christians voting and voting their values because it is the values of those who vote that are reflected in Congress. Saying that Christians had stayed home in 2006, Barton said the result was that Congress then felt free to try and pass things like Hate Crimes Legislation that protected gays and the Employment Non-Discrimination Act.
And then, in typical Barton fashion, he flat-out lied as he asserted that Hate Crimes legislation was designed specifically to imprison pastors for preaching against homosexuality from their pulpits while the purpose of ENDA was to force churches to hire gays:
It should be pointed out that Hate Crimes Legislation was signed into law in October 2009 and not one pastor, priest, or preacher has yet been charged with a hate crime for preaching against homosexuality.

Sono una persona solare e simpatica. Mi piace lo sport e viaggiare.
Antonio A. has completed online and offline ID verification.
Flat was very good! All is near -only problem was wi fi-but its doesnt matter so much! Next time we will choose this flat)
Pour un petit séjour à Monte Carlo, le logement d'Antonio est idéal. Il est idéalement placé, à 5 minutes de la plages, du Forum Grimaldi et du Casino. Le studio est très propre et bien équipé. Les points négatifs sont : - on capte mal le wifi - les fenêtres sont mal insonorisées
Sinteticamente: * PRO - Location, abbastanza tranquilla e con bei dintorni, ottimo parcheggio sotto la piazza, un ascensore x andare alle spiagge (zona Larvotto) e a 10 minuti a piedi x andare al Casino. - Condominio ben organizzato e tenuto. - Bagno comodo e con ottima doccia. - Letto grande. - Finestra grande con vetri abbastanza insonorizzati. - Accessori fondamentali presenti. - Frigo NON rumoroso! * CONTRO - Piano rialzato sotto portici con neon, prossimo alla strada. Occhio alle zanzare! - Cucina senza sportello e cappa aspiratrice (come tutti gli studios), evitare di cucinare in padella! - Odore di acqua sulfurea nel bagno. - Pressione acqua lavandino bagno scarsa. - Materasso duro (tipico dei divani-letto). - Polvere. - Ventilatore senza base. - Porta ingresso che chiude malino (se fate corrente d'aria si muove e dovete fermata con della carta). - Coperte e cuscini vecchiotti. - Lontano dalla zona Partenza-Box-Piacine del Gran Premio. Ok se andate in zona Casino-Loews-Mirabeau. CONCLUSIONI A questo prezzo difficile trovare di meglio, almeno a Monaco. Con piccole accortezze potrebbe migliorare ma in definitiva lo consiglio.
The apartment is well located, 5 minutes walk from the Grimaldi forum and the beach. Proximity of clothes shops and a coffe bar. However it is on the first floor with a view on the main street so there is a lot of noise during a day and night. The bed was comfortable, The kitchen is basic, fine for a few days stay if you don't plan to cook much. Inconveniences The Internet connection works only close to the open window. The appartment needs better cleaning. The good location of the flat makes up for the negative points.
The location is central to everything and a quick walk to the beach. It was easy for me to find and getting situated was also fairly easy. The place is good enough for the price range, could be a little cleaner, like the blankets and sofabed pillows. The bathroom shower had nice hot water, and the bathroom was fairly clean. He had a fridge and microwave and cooking oven. I took advantage of that and went to the market and stocked up on food for the week. The wifi was kind of a problem because I needed faster and more reliable wifi than what he provided. I had to sit at the window to get a signal on my computer, and my phone never picked up any signals. The wifi speed was also slow. Overall, I felt very safe and the stay was a pleasant one. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
Its a small apartment with perfect location, specially if you go to Forum Grimaldi or go out at night. I recomend bit appartment was not 100% clean.
Nice,convenient flat at a center of Monaco.Antonio was so kind to meet us so late in the evening!!
You know what they say about real estate... Location, Location, Location. Antonio's apartment has it all! - Located less than 5 minutes from Larvotto beach and Grimaldi Forum - very comfortable (and big) sofa bed - renovated and very clean bathroom If I return to Monaco, I would for sure try to stay here again
Cozy appartment in the center of Monaco for a very reasonable price, Antonio was a really nice host, highly recommened.
Antonio an his partner stayed at my apartment in Madrid for 3 nights. They were great guests. Communication prior to his stay was easy and friendly, they were perfectly on time with check-in and left everything ok, though they left the lights on, luckily I arrived short after they left! He is welcome to my place anytime again!
Antonio ha soggiornato per una settimana in casa mia. Era la prima volta che la fitta o ed ero piuttosto perplessa anche perché l'immobi,e è' molto curato e tutto nuovo. E' stato un eccellente ospite. Simpatico educato ed estremamente rispettoso. Un persona squisita.

S. Ont-Ropel
Can anyone tell me where in Southern Ontario, (Mississauga area)I can buy Ropel, the animal deterrent for rabbits?
I was told that the spray-on Ropel failed to comply with new (??) Canadian government labeling requirements about two years ago. Since I have not seen it since, I suspect that the company has taken a 'why bother' attitude. Your best bet might be a trip to Buffalo.
I hadn't heard that. That could explain why no one seems to carry it. I saw where you can buy it online.
I did get some 'Animal Repellent' made by GreenEarth. It's an organic product that apparently gives off an odor that deters rabbits and deer but humans do not smell it. I just started using and so far the rabbits have not been back to my flowers.
If it fails to work, I will try to get Ropel online.
Thanks for letting me know.
Didn't know there was a problem with Ropel. I got some last year at Rona hardware when I had the groundhog.
Didn't work at all though, mainly because it kept raining and the stuff is too expensive to apply every day.
Finally used a trap, which did the trick.
Have you tried scattering bloodmeal?
We'll check out Rona-thanks.
Yes, we tried bloodmeal and it didn't work. Rabbit was right back, sitting in it, and eating the flowers.
We had a trap and wanted to relocate him and his brother to the Credit River. Of course he never went in to get the rabbit treat because there was a virtual buffet in our garden.
Thought the 'Animal Repellent' was working but I'm not so sure now. I sprayed the property line where he makes his entrance, and he was there eating clover this morning.
The Ropel granualated stuff is still available but it doesn't work for me.....the spray on stuff worked for the whole summer with only one application. It was awesome!
Nothing I've tried since has been as effective. The next best thing I've used is Scoot, watered down to a ~10:1 mix and sprayed on. Since it's a latex paint for bark protection from rodents, you don't want to apply high concentrations to green leaves. Even at 10:1, it can leave a faint white residue on the leaves.

Proposed deletion of Susan Stryker[edit]
The article Susan Stryker has been proposed for deletion. The proposed-deletion notice added to the article should explain why.
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
Needing your help, please![edit]
I saw your name amongst those proposed changes in the Comparisons of Bittorrent Clients wiki page, thought you may be of help.
I wanted to add the function "Sequential Downloading" to the comparison points but despite the fact this is the second mostly wished function to be supported in Bittorrent clients, that is to download a torrent file of a media file, like music, or video and be able to start using it right away.
Hardly none of the client applications support this function. By the official reasoning because it would slow or kill the downloading swarm while truth is it is working. If you go deep enough to see how the system works, you'll find there's nothing about Sequential Downloading that would make any harm to the swarm. In turn, many streaming sites that makes millions of dollars for providing HD videos, for example, would die out starving as no the fuck one would pay for their shit. So this chip of information, that is we already have 1, I say again, only one client that supports downloading your torrent file of a movie and start watching it, is a war field of business. I want you to help this information stay on the wiki site loud and clear.
The function I mentioned in the first place that is mostly wished is chat function. Well, that is not strictly related to Bittorrent clients although this function is a humongous leap. Best quality, right away, for no cash. This is a big difference. But people doesn't really know it was even possible so this is the least one can do to say it out clear on an independent site as wikipedia that it exists. We needed to mention if a client had the function to chat which is, let's say, not really a relevant function in means of data sharing but we did. So how could that happen that we don't share this information if there's sooooo big need for that. Please, help protect this information on this wiki page that this function already exists and available for everyone.
Thank you!
TeleGrafix Communications[edit]
I'm thinking about merging/deleting TeleGrafix Communications. From what I can tell, and remember, the company was basically equivalent to the product, and there doesn't seem to be enough material for two articles. Did the company do anything else notable?

What are the most significant mobile security challenges for enterprise security professionals?
Mobile has become a flashpoint between security and IT professionals and lines of business. In the pursuit of increased productivity and convenience, BYOD and increasingly BYO App, are the new norm, whether security and IT departments admit it or not. While not intentionally malicious, this employee behavior puts the enterprise at risk, particularly for unintentional data loss on mobile devices. IT and security professionals need to determine how best to bridge this divide, crafting policies and applying technologies to appropriately manage risk while enabling the business.
One of the leading considerations for enterprise security professionals within mobile is protecting the data inside 3rd party applications that they did not develop, and controlling what those applications do with the corporate data. Its crucial to understand and control what the apps are doing with the data, where they are storing the data and where they are sending the data, as well as what individual users have permission to do with that data.
You cant secure what you cant see. Thanks to mobile, a lot of corporate data is now outside the four walls of the company. But most companies dont know how employees are using the data and where the data, particularly sensitive data, is throughout the mobile ecosystem. IT monitors network traffic, servers and desktops and as a result, they have a pretty good sense of the risk each of these possesses. However unlike the case of a lost back up tape, where IT knows the true extent of the risk or exposure, in the event of a lost phone or tablet, many companies just dont know what data is actually on the device. As a result, the potential ramifications of lost mobile devices cant be fully assessed.
Understanding how the individual is using the data on their device is essential to successfully protecting data in the mobile world. There is no substitute for reaching out to peers and communicating with users to determine patterns of use. New mobile data visibility tools are also available to provide on-going insights into the most current usage patterns, allowing IT to tailor policies and controls to ensure security. Only then, will IT be able to know give a positive user experience while securing corporate data.
How is BYOD shaping the enterprise mobile security landscape? Some think using a VPN solves most problems, would you agree?
BYOD is changing the mobile security landscape by shifting the control from IT into the users hand. Adding a device that IT doesnt have 100 percent control over to the network exaggerates the problem. BYOD has changed how we look at mobile security much the way that the cloud has changed the way that we look at enterprise network security. BYOD has forced us to find new ways of securing corporate data. Instead of focusing on securing the device, we now have to look at which data needs to be protected while also considering user experience and user productivity. This fundamental change in mobile security shifts us away from limited containers that only fit enterprise needs toward solutions that fit both enterprise and use needs. About 2/3 of companies report putting enterprise needs above the user needs. As a result, users simply ignore security policies and simply chose to go around IT.

This is a great place to eat, the speciality pizzas and salads are very good. Atmosphere is very comfortable and open. Warm feeling, relaxing.
Waited an hour when told a 15 minute wait because pager didn't work. Excuses without solutions made by manager. Last time here there were fruitflies. Two strikes and your out.
Great little brew house just as you arrive in Soldotna. Servers are educated in the beers that are offered. Food is fresh and good portion sized. My only complaint is the center of the 10" pizzas get a soggy crust due to all of the toppings. Great fresh flavor though.
Great biers with their own twist on names and additives. I enjoyed the pepperoni and a tall Gypsy Pilsner. Service was good, and the food came fast. It's easy to find just North of the Fred Meyer, so stop in, it's well worth the time.
Came in for Dinner & had a Personal Pizza. It wasn't bad and reasonably priced ($14). Not much other then Pizza to order. The Brew's were good.
Wonderful and friendly service. Love the pizza choices. I do not drink beer, but love their root beer. You can get growlers to take it home too!!! It can be loud and sometimes it is hard to carry on a conversation.
If you travel, you see many places and face many different circumstances. Standards aren't the same around the world. So also here in Alaska.

There were 5 of us in a booth, the place was full. No excuse for an hour to get individual pizzas. 2 of us are from California and suffered the entire week from restaurant sticker shock.

Business & EconomyEurozone climbs out of recession Group exits longest slump with better-than-expected growth of 0.3 percent in second quarter led by Germany and France. 14 Aug 2013 10:21 GMT | Business & Economy, Europe, France, Germany, Italy Stronger growth in the eurozone's two largest economies, Germany and France, helped in the recovery [AFP]The eurozone has climbed out of recession with better-than-expected growth of 0.3 percent in the second quarter led by Germany and France, the European Union has said. Data agency Eurostat said on Wednesday that the 18-month downturn which has cost millions of jobs and crushed debt-laden governments around the single currency area ended thanks in large part to better-than-expected gains of 0.7 percent in Germany and 0.5 percent in France. "A sustained recovery is now within reach but only if we persevere on all fronts of our crisis response," EU Economic Affairs Commissioner Olli Rehn said. The 17 countries sharing the euro needed seven quarters to return to growth of 0.3 percent, on a seasonally adjusted basis, in the three months to June, Eurostat showed. Al Jazeera's Nick Spicer reports from Poland. Confirming a fragmented picture of the rebound, Spain's economy fell by 0.1 percent on the quarter, while Italy and the Netherlands both dropped by 0.2 percent. Portugal on fastest growth According to Eurostat, bailed eurozone peer Portugal posted a 1.1 percent expansion, showing the fastest growth in the eurozone in the three months to June. Portugal's National Statistics Institute said stronger economic activity in the period was due to higher exports and an easing of previous contraction in investment. The economy fell in the second quarter by 0.7 percent, compared with the same period last year, with the market anticipating a 0.8 percent decline. The single currency area, however, now faces an uneven and bumpy recovery dented by record high joblessness and belt-tightening austerity in peripheral countries, which need to speed up market reforms, boost growth and create new jobs.Source: Agencies

He then went onto the University of Akron in May of 2008 with a degree in Radio/TV & Media Productions and a minor in Psychology. It was at WZIP & ZTV where Aaron developed a passion for radio especially Sports Radio. While attending the University of Akron you could hear Aaron on Sundays doing the "Sports Power Talk" program. Aaron covers City Hall, County Council and Akron School Board beats and handles traffic updates weekday afternoons on 1590 WAKR, 97.5 WONE and 94.9 WQMX.

Day 3 of Wahoo Week from Goodyear, Arizona is an exciting time for both the Cleveland Indians players, but also the coaching staff.
Mickey Calloway joined WAKR's Sam Bourquin and Brad Russell to talk about the team, the young arms in the system, and the chemistry.
"We're excited," said Calloway. "21 of our 28 or 29 pitchers were here 12 days before camp started, so we're ready to get going and play some games."
The attitude and the atmosphere around the clubhouse is something special, and to a man, they truly enjoy working together and working towards their goals together.
"I think those guys embrace those kinds of challenges," Mickey explained.
"When you have a challenge like that, and when you have a team concept, it makes it easier."
As far as the pitching staff, Calloway says that they're young, but they approach the game like veterans and take initiative to try and get better every day.
Attorney General Mike DeWine joins Ray Horner to talk about why he turned down the petition to legalize marijuana in Ohio. DeWine explains that it is his job to make sure that anything that is on a petition should be represented and be fair and consistent. He says he turned it down, not because he is against it but because it was not accurate.
DeWine says that there were a few things left out of the petition statement. In order for the petition to be circulated, it needs to be fixed to be accurate. Once the statement is accurate, it will be passed and the petition may begin circulation. After DeWine explains why the petition was turned down, he explains his position on the matter.
DeWine tells Ray that he spoke to an Attorney General in Colorado who claims that it has become a disaster. He gives multiple examples and statistics as to why DeWine is against legalizing marijuana. He also explains that a lot of the marketing in Colorado is aimed at kids. Many of the marijuana products are candy bars, cookies and other candies that kids can easily confuse with regular products. There is also no control as to how much marijuana is used in these products.
Congressman Tim Ryan joins Ray to talk about the homeland security funding issue. Ryan talks about the desire for a clean vote in the Senate. He expresses worry about whether the House of Representatives will bring it up for a vote.
Ryan explains that if so, it will provide the time needed to look at the big picture. Ryan says that he thinks that, given everything going on, he does not believe they would want to shut down the security aspect of the government for any time, therefore he thinks that this will be voted on and pushed back until September. He also talks about how to export our natural gas from the United States. Ryan says he is not in favor of the pipeline that comes from Canada and through the United States, due to the dirty oil coming through.
Akron Public School's Superintendent David James joins Ray Horner to talk about his State of Akron Speech. James touches on his thoughts of changing the school calendar to a year-round calendar. He tells Ray a few advantages of changing the calendar for teachers, students and parents. He also talks about Akron Public School's sports programs.
James talks about the idea of bringing Tom Cousineau in to help out with sports programming. He would like to make sure that the coaches have the training that they need and working on character building. James tells Ray that he would like to put a board together to talk about athletic issues and ways to improve.
The Cleveland Indians are primed for the 2015 season and the catalyst for that success on the field is Tribe manager Terry Francona.
Indians Vice President for Public Affairs Bobby DiBiasio stopped by to chat with Brad Russell and Sam Bourquin out in Goodyear Tuesday afternoon.
DiBiasio said Terry's communication with his players is paramount to the day-to-day success for the Tribe.
"With his track record, with his resume, how do you not react positively to Tito?" asked Bobby. "We all react to people as how they treat us personally and individually, and Tito treats each of those guys like he's their father."
It's that kind of family atmosphere and the expectation of playing hard that keeps the Indians going.
Terry sat down with Sam Bourquin and Brad Russell to talk about the guys, the season, and expectations for 2015.
"We had a team meeting today, and I had more anxiety than I had in a long time, and it's because I care about these guys so much, and I care about the organization so much," Francona explained.
He knows the season is long, and there will be bumps in the road, but it's all about building trust, and working hard.
"We want to get after it together," says the Tribe skipper.
"We're going to go through ups and downs this season, but we'll do it together, we'll come through it, and we'll win together."
One of the players who stepped his game up last season was Tribe catcher Yan Gomes, and he says he's focused and ready for the upcoming season.
WAKR's Brad Russell caught up with Yan during Day 2 of Wahoo Week to talk about his offseason, spending time with the family, and the 2015 campaign.
"This team has a real family environment, so it's really fun to come back and see your family again," said Gomes.
He says the team chemistry will be on point, given that so many players will be back for the Tribe this season.
Yan says his offseason has been a busy one, with the birth of a new daughter recently.
Wahoo Week Day 2 is in full effect in Goodyear, Arizona. A familiar face has returned to the Indians to try and help the Tribe pitchers this spring training and beyond.
Former Indians pitcher Charles Nagy joined Sam Bourquin and Brad Russell for a quick chat to discuss this next stage in his baseball journey.
"Baseball is something that I love, and something that's been a part of my life for so long," Nagy said.
"You still come to the park, you try to get better every day, learn something new, and my role is to talk to the guys and give them whatever they need."
Nagy says he's happy being a part of the game, putting on the uniform again, and the relaxed atmosphere in Goodyear.
Akron Beacon Journal's Betty Lin-Fisher joins Ray to talk about the Who Will Lead series. She explains that this series was meant to be one story but has quickly become a series. Fisher explains that there was so much to learn and share.
Fisher explains to Ray that it is the time to have this conversation. She tells Ray the differences between the Baby Boomers, Generation X and Millennial generations. Fisher leads in to talk about women in leadership positions. Fisher and Ray discuss the difference in home life now compared to when women stayed at home with the children.
Wahoo Week started off with a bang in Goodyear, Arizona as the Cleveland Indians are ready to get going for Spring Training. Tribe broadcaster Jim Rosenhaus joined Brad Russell and Sam Bourquin on 1590 WAKR to discuss the Indians, who are excited to get things started with their full-team workout on Tuesday.
"There's so much confidence about what could be this season, I think tomorrow will be a lot of fun, because they'll finally get out there," Rosenhaus said. Sam and Brad talked to a few players including Cody Allen and Zach McAllister, who said they and the rest of the guys are ready to get back and finish the deal this year and get into the postseason. Jim Rosenhaus says that there's no sense of complacency with this group.
"They still feel they haven't reached their full potential, there's still some things they have to clean up from last season, but the potential is there for some great things this season."
Indians Pitcher Zach McCallister joined Brad Russell and Sam Bourquin for Wahoo Week in Goodyear, Arizona to talk baseball and Spring Training.
Zach talked about his offseason, and his teammates hunger to close the deal and get into the post-season.
"I think we didn't finish what we started last year," McCallister explained.
"A lot of guys came back from last year, and we all have that drive and desire to be successful, and that what makes this spring exciting."
He says mechanics and consistency are things he's been working on and will continue to work on while in Goodyear. He says the team is excited to get back to work and put in the hours necessary to get where they need to be.

Your "preferences" won't get you results
/You've probably got a daily routine that you're used to. It's comfortable, it's predictable - and it's not supporting your goals. Sound about right?
What you'd LIKE to do and what you NEED to do are often two very different things. So how do you change your preferences to be things that support and enable you rather than work against you?
