Moncton Wildcats defenceman James Melindy is headed to the desert.
He leaves for Arizona today to participate in Phoenix Coyotes prospects development camp after being selected in the third round, 88th overall, in the 2012 National Hockey League draft on Saturday in Pittsburgh.
Melindy was No. 63 among North American skaters in the NHL Central Scouting Bureau rankings. He had 27 points, including nine goals, in 61 games this past season as an 18-year-old sophomore in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.
'I had 25 family members with me at the draft,' he said. 'That made it even more special that they were there to share the moment with me. It's tough to put into words the feeling of sitting there in the stadium and hearing your name called out.
'You need to pinch yourself to see if you're in a dream because it is a dream come true to be NHL drafted. This week's camp in Phoenix will be my first time in the desert. I'm told it's 115 to 120 degrees there at this time of year so I guess I better bring my sunblock.' Melindy, a second-round pick in the 2009 QMJHL draft, is 6-foot-2 and 191 pounds. He played two seasons for the Notre Dame Hounds in Saskatchewan and helped them capture the Telus Cup, the Canadian midget AAA championship trophy in 2009-10.
The native of Goulds, N.L. has showed steady improvement during his two QMJHL seasons and he was Moncton's only player claimed in the 2012 NHL draft. He was among the prospects who attended the NHL Combines in Toronto in May and he won an endurance test there.
'Nothing comes easy,' he said when asked about the reward feeling of being NHL drafted. 'Most people don't really see what happens behind the scenes with the training, the meetings you have with coaches and the commitment you have to make to get to this point.
'I think having a strong support network - family, friends, coaches and teammates - is really important. I'm grateful for the people that I have around me. My parents and family members have sacrificed for me. I'm glad I can give something back to them by getting drafted and making them proud.
'This is a stepping stone that gives you an opportunity to attend an NHL camp. The harder work starts from here. I want to keep working hard so that some day hopefully I can crack Phoenix's lineup. I'll make sure I have a big summer of training to get ready for NHL camp.' There were 211 players selected in the 2012 NHL draft.
The Canadian Hockey League accounted for almost 47 per cent of the total with 99 players drafted.
The breakdown is 48 from the Ontario Hockey League, 32 from the Western Hockey League and 19 from the QMJHL.
Moncton has had at least one player selected in 14 of 17 NHL drafts since it joined the QMJHL in 1995-96. The franchise has produced 25 NHL drafted players.
Melindy was the sixth QMJHL product taken in this year's NHL draft. Quebec forward Mikhail Grigorenko went in the first round, 12th overall, to the Buffalo Sabres. Second-round picks were Baie-Comeau forward Raphael Bussieres to the Minnesota Wild, Rouyn-Noranda defenceman Dillon Fournier to the Chicago Blackhawks, Halifax forward Martin Frk to the Detroit Red Wings and Rimouski forward Alexandre Mallet to the Vancouver Canucks.
Fourth-round picks were Blainville-Boisbriand forward Cedric Paquette to the Tampa Bay Lightning, Cape Breton defenceman Loic Leduc to the New York Islanders, Chicoutimi defenceman Andrew O'Brien to Chicago and Acadie-Bathurst forward Chrisophe Lalancette to the San Jose Sharks.
Fifth-round picks were Chicoutimi forward Charles Hudon to the Montreal Canadiens, Quebec defenceman Ryan Culkin to the Calgary Flames and Val d'Or goaltender Francois Tremblay to the St.
Louis Blues.
The sixth round featured four more QMJHL products - Quebec goaltender Francois Brossard to the Ottawa Senators, Gatineau forward Tomas Hyka to the Los Angeles Kings, Val d'Or forward Anton Zlobin to the Pittsburgh Penguins and Rimouski forward Francis Beauvillier to the Florida Panthers.
The QMJHL content was completed in the seventh round with Chicago selecting Victoriaville goaltender Brandon Whitney and Phoenix taking Cape Breton defenceman Justin Hache.
'We knew leading up to the NHL draft that James Melindy was on the radar for a lot of teams,' said Moncton head coach and director of hockey operations Danny Flynn.
'I felt that he would be a top three round selection.
'Phoenix's chief scout Rick Knickle is from Dartmouth and their regional scout is his brother Gary. They saw James play a lot and I knew they had him fairly high on their list. He's worked hard to get to this point so I'm proud of him. It's a special day for him and his family.' Phoenix defenceman Keith Yandle played for Moncton in 2005-06. Phoenix also selected Moncton defenceman Brandon Gormley in the first round of the 2011 NHL draft.
'People are going to start calling them the Phoenix Wildcats,' joked Flynn. 'With Yandle, Gormley and Melindy, they could have a real Wildcats flare on their blueline some day.' Moncton's Roman Will was No.
22 in the NHL Central Scouting Bureau's ranking of North American goaltenders. He was passed over in the draft, but he should get invited to an NHL camp as a free agent.
'I was very surprised that he didn't get selected,' said Flynn.
'It was a strange draft for goalies.
Michael Houser was a first team OHL all-star, the OHL's Most Valuable Player and he took London to the Memorial Cup final. He wasn't drafted.
'(Saskatoon goalie) Andrey Makarov was so good for Russia at the world junior championship. He was projected to go in the second round and ended up not getting picked. The way the goalies played out in this year's NHL draft really surprised me.'

Health, Happiness and Human Enhancement—Dealing with Unexpected Effects of Deep Brain Stimulation
- Maartje Schermer
- … show all 1 hide
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a treatment involving the implantation of electrodes into the brain. Presently, it is used for neurological disorders like Parkinson's disease, but indications are expanding to psychiatric disorders such as depression, addiction and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Theoretically, it may be possible to use DBS for the enhancement of various mental functions. This article discusses a case of an OCD patient who felt very happy with the DBS treatment, even though her symptoms were not reduced. First, it is explored if the argument that 'doctors are not in the business of trading happiness', as used by her psychiatrist to justify his discontinuation of the DBS treatment, holds. The relationship between enhancement and the goals of medicine is discussed and it is concluded that even though the goals of medicine do not set strict limits and may even include certain types of enhancement, there are some good reasons for limiting the kind of things doctors are required or allowed to do. Next, the case is discussed from the perspective of beneficence and autonomy. It is argued that making people feel good is not the same as enhancing their well-being and that it is unlikely—though not absolutely impossible—that the well-being of the happy OCD patient is really improved. Finally, some concerns regarding the autonomy of a request made under the influence of DBS treatment are considered.

A surprising number of boaters are actually using their boats in this gloomy economy, and why not? A day on the water still provides a great escape from the challenges of the rest of the week on dry land. Owning a trailerable vessel is about the most affordable way onto the water, and gas prices are down about $1.50 per gallon from last year.
This recent Memorial Day, the unofficial kickoff to the boating season, we saw lots of families towing their trailerboats while cruising the Interstate. Some of the trailers we noticed are fitted out with the latest gear to make the trailer more reliable, and with accessories that look great at a modest cost. With that in mind, we would like to offer some suggestions for upgrading your trailer.
Working on your trailer requires only basic household tools like screwdrivers, socket and combination wrenches, since most of the components clamp onto the frame with U-bolts. Simple electrical tools, like a quality crimper for the wiring, are all you need to work on the trailer's electrical system.
The only hazards in trailer maintenance projects involve supporting the boat when you remove wheels, so use care and common sense. Let's look at some key cosmetic and functional upgrades you can tackle in your driveway to make your boat's road rig perform better improve its roadway pizzazz.
We recently installed this jack on our 21' boat, replacing the old-style single wheel model. Completing the task took about half an hour, and now we can push the 1,350 lb. boat around the parking lot by hand, instead of having to back it into its space with our car. This results in big smiles each time we couple and uncouple the trailer.
Hot lightbulbs and cold water are a predictably bad combination. Designed to last for about 3000 hours, filament lightbulbs suffer from thermal shock when they're submerged (so you should always remember to unplug the lights before putting the trailer in the water). They also get damaged by vibration and grime while on the road. LED lights represent a better way, because they're virtually indestructible and last for up to 100,000 hours. They draw one-eighth the electrical current of lightbulbs and activate instantly, so drivers behind you have an extra instant to apply their brakes when you make a quick stop.
Don't waste your time fixing corroded trailer lights or troubleshooting wiring problems. Replacing the whole system is cheaper and better for the blood pressure. When you replace the lights, go with LEDs, and say goodbye forever to trailer light hassles.
Start from the basics: install a new wiring harness, like Model 7066210, which is 25' long with a flat, four-pin connector. It installs running down one side of the trailer, and is attached using Trailer Wire Attachment Clips, Model 7066178.
For a modest investment of about $11 you can eliminate the main reason for bad connections. Don't use household "wire nuts" on your trailer. Make the connections to your lights with waterproof adhesive-lined butt connectors like Model 332320 and keep corrosion out of the wiring. Use a quality tool like the Ancor Stainless Steel Wire Cutter Stripper Crimper, Model 5764568.
Make the connections to your lights with waterproof adhesive-lined butt connectors like Model 332320 and keep corrosion out of the wiring.
Stoltz Super Rollers are the orange polyurethane models you may have noticed at your local launching ramp. They last forever, spin more easily and, most important, they don't leave black marks on white gelcoat like the black rubber original-equipment rollers.
Some of us have trouble seeing our trailers when backing the unloaded rig down the launching ramp, and submerged trailers are virtually invisible in murky water. The solution is to bolt on a pair of trailer guide posts. If you launch or retrieve in the dark, install a pair with LED lights on the tops of the posts.
These hardly fall into the "luxury item" category. Bearing protectors prevent water from being sucked into hot wheel hubs when they're plunged into cold water, causing the air inside the hub to contract and create negative pressure. Water gets inside and rusts the bearings and races: eventually the wheel seizes up, usually at a remote roadside location far from home on Sunday afternoon.
Get that trailer ready! The summer boating season is here. Get your trailer ready to perform flawlessly with these simple and affordable upgrades.

Concierge.com's insider take:
Those who know Singapore for its sometimes repressive government will be delightfully surprised by this boundary-pushing, multidisciplinary arts center. The small downstairs gallery mounts innovative visual exhibitions, though it was forced to take down antigovernment images a few years back. Beyond that sits a theater for live performances and often obscure art-house flicks. The café with outdoor seating is a magnet for young Singaporean artistic and activist types.

Challenge: Prepare for the new Clean Air Act regulations for sewage sludge incineration units. EPA's deadline for implementing compliance equipment and requirements limits is 2016. This will require new operating training and qualification through a new program. We have new emission limits that will require more extensive and thus, more expensive, monitoring. Additional recording and training will be required.
Solution: First, learn about the requirements and how they affect our incinerator. Second, work closely with the Southwest Clean Air Agency on the Title V permit application due in March. The good news is that it looks like our custom-designed U.S. Filter/Zimpro Inc. fluidized bed incinerator will meet the new requirements, so we won't have to modify it—just do more extensive monitoring. We're researching and budgeting for new monitoring systems now.

This is the litter box!
Best Uses
Comments about Cat Litter Box - Tan:
The Litter Spinner is the best litter box I've ever owned. Cleaning is super easy,and It takes up no more space than a regular litter box. Highly recommend. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because if you have a large cat they probably wouldn't fit in it, and the price. If you're willing to spend the money these litter boxes are well worth the cost though!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great Price for a product that WORKS!
Best Uses
Comments about Cat Litter Box - Tan:
I was skeptical because I got the roll over type litter box first and it is messy and not efficient. It was not difficult to put together. It is fastened together by metal screws and is sturdy. THIS IS THE BEST LITTER BOX FOR THE PRICE THAT I HAVE EVER OWNED. I spin the box around every 24 hours and lift out the tray to dispose in garbage. You don't need much litter and it doesn't waste any of the litter like the roll over type. Wag has the best price around. Wag is the best internet pet supply I have ever found.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Call me juvenile or childish if you must, but there's something that stops me ever buying a bottle of Coke when it's got the name of a person I know on it. It's okay if it's someone I'm really fond, like family and relations. But anyone else ... somehow it feels like false advertising. And I don't want to share my Coke with them!
How many hours have I wasted, standing in front of chillers in the supermarket, local petrol station or the works canteen, turning bottle after bottle around until I find one I can drink? Too many hours, I can tell you. Maybe this is bringing out some deep seated OCD that's been inside of me.
It's okay if the name is of family or relations |
The canteen staff at work are on to me. They've started to display all the bottles with the Coke logo facing outwards. Today I nearly bought a bottle with someones name on it!
I'm glad Coke have had the sense to bring out more generic titles like 'Gorgeous', 'Sis', 'Bro', 'Bestie', 'Mum' and 'Dad'. It means that at least there's a chance I can actually enjoy the beverage, instead of having to choose another type of drink.
But can somebody please tell the people at Coca-Cola, that we're bored with this game now.
And no, it's not sour grapes ... honest. But, if you're going to make bottle with names like 'Monique', 'Farah' and 'Brogan' ... is it too much to expect to find a 'Lorraine' in there once in a while?

Nintendo slumps to another annual loss after dismal Wii U sales
@Wriggler yeah fair enough. But lets be brutally honest here. you say "just give me the latest game in X series" in relation to some franchises on PS4 / Xbone, but look at nintendos catalog. New Super Mario U, DK, Mario3d, pikmin, Zelda wind waker etc..
These aren't exactly new franchises or series. They are all inherently the same game as previous Gen.
They have much better services than before, but i feel its because MS / Sony pushed their hand.
As was said before, ninty don't seem to give a toss about 3rd party support and haven't brought out any killer games yet. Its no wonder they are in this predicament.
I have a Wii U btw. It's a decent console. I just understand why people today with �300 / �400 to spend, will got for a PS4 or a Xbone first. Reply +1 -

Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft beta review
Just wanted to post and give people more info on how the game works and what its about and some of the general FAQs on the game.
-The game is more or less complete. Blizzard have made final changes to game balance, there may be a few minor changes to card balance but that will be it.
I would go as far as saying they could score the game now as there will be no difference with how the game works now and how the game will work in full retail in say 6 months. Its still a standard Blizz game that will be patched every now and then to balance out issues.
-There are 2 types of play. "constructed" and "arena". constructed is where you build a deck based on the entire pool of cards YOU have and pit them against people who have done the same. This is where the free 2 play vs. play to win debate comes in. Seems you can only be on one side of the fence or the other.
Would like to touch on this as people seem to think its a make or break for them. I have bought decks and YES they helped me win. What people need to understand is that when you buy cards to speed up how many decent cards you get drastically, you can still win with basic decks. Not only that, you don't have a choice of what cards you get (obviously), so while you may get an amazing set of cards, it may only make 1 good deck for 1 class, or 2 mediocre decks for 2 classes.
What people don't realize (and to be fair, this is brilliant of blizzard) is that because of this and in conjunction with daily quests, people will play with shit decks to get their daily gold. The amount of people doing dailies allows newcomers to come in with a basic deck, play them and beat them. You can also create clever basic decks and stomp people with paid for decks.
-Arena play is basically, you choose a set of random cards and play against people in the same boat. There is no "pay to win" here. I would compare this to poker. Really good players will constantly win a lot, not because they got lucky. If you constantly play arena, you will win more cards for free and build of decent free decks making life easier in constructed play.
All in all, I would highly recommend playing this game. Especially now that its free to access for everyone. There will be a crazy amount of people in the same boat as yourself (playing with basic decks) and working their way to getting more cards. Reply +7 -

Many experienced meditators recommend against Goenka retreats because of their torturous, prison-like quality
from Meta World Peace – Intro: What is a 10-Day Goenka Vipassana Retreat? on Genius
This is such an irresponsable and dangerous retreat. I can't believe this CRAPOLA. This Goenka guy is an idiot.
I was ready to take on Vipassana to help me be more disciplined and peaceful. I previously read Mindfulness In Plain English and practiced some meditation here and there and always felt good afterwards.
I went to this retreat after viewing several videos in YouTube. Seeing how big this organization was and how the website always came first in Google I decided to give it a chance, even though I always had a bad vibe and feeling coming from this organization.
I lasted 7 days before finally running away. During those 7 days I never felt good, never, not even for a minute. I felt like I was buried alive and couldn't do anything. I cried many times. During the stupid body scan technique I had extremely disturbing images popping up in my head. I almost had a panic attack. I had strong anxiety. I felt that this retreat literally fucked up my mind.

Good location short walk to the main sqaure and bars etc but the hotel felt like the one in the Shining - bleak corridors and flickering tube lights. The rooms were not clean, the bathroom was awful, I had to kill a cockroach. None of the staff spoke English, breakfast was not included and we were billed when we checked out.

Certainly with regard to their respective elections, Gore needs Penelas's help far more than Penelas needs any assistance from the vice president. But in the long run, Penelas needs Gore to lift him out of South Florida. Penelas's mother didn't raise her son to be a lowly mayor. She fully intended for him to become a governor or a senator, and from there to make his way to the White House.
Let's assume for a moment that Penelas is re-elected as mayor, a fairly safe assumption at this point. Term limits will prevent him from running for re-election in 2004, so he must begin planning his next move right away.
Now let's imagine that George W. Bush wins the presidency. Result: no cabinet post for Penelas. He is left with the prospect of finishing his term. But then what? Try for Congress? He won't run against Ileana Ros-Lehtinen or Lincoln Diaz-Balart, institutions among their constituents. Beyond that I can't imagine Penelas serving in the House along with 434 other representatives. If he found the rough-and-tumble of serving on the county commission to be debasing, I can't imagine how he'd fare in the mob scene that is the House of Representatives.
U.S. Senate? Bob Graham's seat will be open in 2004. The senator will turn 68 years old that year. Even assuming Graham did retire, Penelas would have trouble winning statewide office directly out of scandal-plagued Miami-Dade County. As much as he tries to convince people he is a reformer (and I'm not sure he's persuading many people in Miami-Dade County), as far as the rest of the state is concerned, he'll be just another one of those "crazy and crooked Miami Cubans."
Governor? Jeb Bush is up for re-election in 2002, and though he may be unpopular among minorities now, his Republican message still plays well across the state as a whole. There's no reason to view him as a one-term wonder.
All of which means Penelas's best hope for advancement is a Gore victory. The most likely cabinet position for him: Secretary of Housing and Urban Development. Once in Washington Penelas will crank up the HUD public-relations machine and begin collecting IOUs from all the right politicians in Florida. After a few years in Washington, he could plan his triumphant return here to run for statewide office -- say, for Graham's Senate seat, which would be much easier to accomplish under those circumstances. (The current HUD secretary, Andrew Cuomo, for example, reportedly is preparing for a run for office in his home state of New York.)
Penelas isn't the only person pondering how the dominoes might fall if Gore were to become president. Penelas's chief rival, County Commissioner Miguel Diaz de la Portilla, also is watching closely. Indeed it wouldn't surprise me if Diaz de la Portilla, a Republican, weren't secretly rooting for Al Gore to beat George W. Bush.
For weeks now Diaz de la Portilla has been debating whether to run for mayor this year against Penelas. Many consider such a bid to be suicidal for Diaz de la Portilla, since the cadre of lobbyists surrounding Penelas can raise millions for his re-election campaign.
But with George W. faltering and Gore surging in the polls, running against Penelas for the next five months would be an easy way for Diaz de la Portilla to spread his name countywide and develop rapport with voters. When he loses the mayor's race in September, Diaz de la Portilla could sit back and wait for Gore to win in November. A few months later, after Penelas leaves to join Gore's cabinet, Diaz de la Portilla quickly becomes the early favorite to run in the special election to fill the mayor's post.

In 2007 a social scientist and a designer created a spatial installation to communicate social science research about the regulation of emerging science and technology. The rationale behind the experiment was to improve scientific knowledge production by making the researcher sensitive to new forms of reactions and objections. Based on an account of the conceptual background to the installation and the way it was designed, the paper discusses the nature of the engagement enacted through the experiment. It is argued that experimentation is a crucial way of making social science about science communication and engagement more robust.

Judge orders domestic surveillance docs public. ŌĆ£Just one day after a news that an internal audit found that FBI agents abused a Patriot Act power more than 1000 times, a federal judge ordered the agency Friday to begin turning over thousands of pages of documents related to the agencyŌĆÖs use of a powerful, but extremely secretive investigative tool that can pry into telephone and internet records.ŌĆØ The April request from the Electronic Frontier Foundation asked the FBI to turn over documents related to its misuse of National Security Letters, self-issued subpoenas that donŌĆÖt need a judgeŌĆÖs approval and which can get financial, phone and internet records. Recipients of the letters are forbidden by law from ever telling anyone other than their lawyer that they received the request. Though initially warned initially to use this power sparingly, FBI agents issued more than 47,000 in 2005, more than half of which targeted Americans. Information obtained from the requests, which need only be certified by the agency to be ŌĆ£relevantŌĆØ to an investigation, are dumped into a data-mining warehouse for perpetuity.
The problem here (from what I understand) is that the information requests specifically outlines as to what records the FBI want and legally can have......companies (cell/credit/bank) were sending more than they should have .....violating this. No doubt the FBI should have audited what they received and sent back/not used the information... but the requests themselves were legal. I have a relative in the FBI who gave me some info on this.

Nirvana carefully walked over the heated red stones of Hell.
His hooves made a soft crunching noise as they clopped over the red stones.
Approaching a pool of blood, he saw a mare crying over the pool.
"Are you alright?"
Turning around, he saw a face he hadn't in a while.
"Nightmare Dream? Is that-"
Nightmare's face contorted into a grotesque grimace.
"It's me, your only friend, and the one you loved. But why didn't you save me?"
Nirvana stumbled back.
"I'm sorry! I warned you not to go into my dreams!"
The face had almost completely melted off by now, and her skin was beginning to bubble.
"You knew I was tempted to see what was in your head! You should have acted more on this! My death was all your fault!"
Nirvana backed over a ledge.
Down, falling, forever into a pit of darkness.
Blinking, Nirvana looked over at the person standing over him.
It was in fact a person, a human if he recalled Lyra Heartstring's lectures correctly.
"Damn it, Nirvana, why didn't you kill her?"
"I'm sorry, when someone dies, I expect them to stay dead! Also, who are you?"
The human standing over him had blonde hair, was wearing a green striped dress shirt and underneath that a shirt which said Nirvana's name on it and bore his cutie mark.
"You have a shirt of me?"
"Um, no. They're a band. And if I had one of you, I would burn it, because you are that much of a dumbass."
"I don't see how that would add up, but ok..."
The human walked over to a cabinet, and Nirvana got a better look around.
He was in a small house, a one room hovel really, consistent of a bench with tools on it, a cauldron, a toilet with a curtain around it, a sink, a brewing stand, some shelves, a furnace, and a jukebox.
The human pulled out a green potion, and uncorked it.
"Here, drink this."
He gave it to Nirvana. Nirvana gulped it down for about five seconds and then nearly threw up.
"What the hell is that?"
"It's rat bile."
Nirvana did throw up this time. Fortunately, he made it to the toilet in time.
When he was finished, he gave the human a stair of loathing.
"Why did you do that?"
The human laughed. "I wanted to see if you were stupid enough to drink it. I'm Elijah by the way."
Nirvana walked around.
"Hey, Big Mac, you get some mushrooms to use in the stew from outside?"
Nirvana stopped dead in his tracks.
Big Mac walked in and stopped in his tracks when he saw Nirvana. Nirvana turned to run, but Big Mac snorted in anger, and charged Nirvana down, tackling him, and thrusting his hooves to Nirvana's throat.
