Obito Uchiha » Tobi=Obito?
nishi99 I think u have a great point. kakashi was about the age of 15 when the Nine tails was destroying the village which was released by tobi who was fighting Minato at the same time that was occurring.
Unless the Sharingan has also the ability to accelerate puberty and turn u into a grown size man and make ur comrades look like lil kids then its a little logical then to assume that Obito might NOT be Tobi

Ringtones 600,000+ and Ringtone Maker review
Create ringtones from your own music, or use some of the thousands of free tones provided in this convenient app.
Ringtones 600,000+ and Ringtone Maker provides you with nearly unlimited options for new custom ringtones for your phone. You can select from thousands of preloaded tones, or you can create your own ringtones using clips of music from your iTunes library. Create the tones in the app, save them to your computer, and then sync them to your phone from iTunes to make your ringtone stand out from the crowd.
This app has a relatively intuitive interface, with main menu options to make a ringtone from music, make one from a recorder, access the list of your downloaded ringtones, and access 600,000+ ringtones. When you select the option to make a ringtone from your music, the app automatically brings up your iTunes library for you to browse through. When you've selected the song you were looking for, you'll be taken back to the app, where you can select the section of the song you'd like to use. You can slide the tuner to any part of the song, and select a clip that's up to 40 seconds long. Then just save it to your phone and start on a new one. Choosing the recording option lets you speak right into the microphone and then turn that clip into a ringtone.
In order to use the ringtones you make, you do have to transfer them to your computer, and then back to your phone through iTunes. There are clear instructions in the Help menu that walk you through this process, though. When we tested the app, the section with 600,000+ ringtones never loaded, but otherwise the app worked fine. This is a good option if you'd like to create custom ringtones on your phone.

Chelsea Ladies striker Eni Aluko believes manager Emma Hayes has brought her global knowledge of the game to the fore in the Women's Super League while also benefitting from some tips off Jose Mourinho.
Hayes' side top the FA WSL ahead of defending champions Liverpool and third-placed Birmingham City Ladies as the domestic league season enters its final stretch.
Chelsea only won once in the league last season, finishing one from bottom last year but have emerged as serious title contenders with six wins from 10 matches so far this term.
And England forward Aluko lauded the management style of the former Chicago Red Stars head coach who has helped bring about a turnaround in the club's fortunes.
"Emma knows what she's doing and her approach is very thorough and very deliberate," Aluko told Sky Sports. "She's been brilliant for us as a team
"She's had a few tips from Mourinho too so maybe that's rubbing off on her, particularly in relation to the media, but that's all part of her management.
"She's been all over the world coaching and learning from different philosophies and ethoses and it's something that English football needs.
"You need to be able grasp the best of what other cultures have to offer and be able to bring that to English game.
"Tactically managerially and even psychologically at times she's really delivered in terms of her management but what's most important is the players are playing for her.
"We're sticking to the gameplans that Emma and the coaches are setting out for us and we're achieving good things."
Chelsea next game is Thursday's visit to Arsenal Ladies, who recently announced that Spaniard Pedro Martinez Losa would replace Shelley Kerr as the club's next permanent manager.
That leaves Hayes as the sole female manager in the top flight of women's football and Aluko is desperate to do well for her manager.
"I think Emma is a great coach and foremost and a female second. Whatever her gender is, is not important.
"From an overall picture we'd like to see more female mangers in the game but it makes it all the more sweeter if we do well this season because Emma will be the only female in the league.
"I just want success for Emma. Hopefully she'll be the last female standing at the end of the season."

I have never done all grain brewing by myself, but me and my brother were attempting to make a gluten free beer for my celiac father. Long story short, my dad is bottling the beer, and sends me a picture of the finished product coming out of the carboy. The finished product is so opaque, it looks like a mixture of milk and apple cider. You can see about a half centimeter into the beer. Here is where the issue probably comes in. We had to malt our own grains, so I'm guessing, or assuming, that tons of proteins were in suspension. Anyone know how to help avoid this in the future? We malted Amaranth and Buckwheat, and used some canned malted sorghum in the recipe. I know that most malts come 'fully modified' and I doubt we accomplished that with these grains. Would a protein rest solve this entirely in the future (and are the right enzymes for that present in these grains)? Or will we always get a super cloudy beer? On the plus side... when they were bottling it, my dad said it tasted great! I have yet to make a full grain recipe by myself, so I'm sure I'd eventually figure out how to avoid this issue.
Did you try to cold crash it?
That did not happen, but obviously seems like something I should try next time. Would putting the bottles in the fridge effectively cold crash it (with just more sediment on the bottom of the bottle)?
Two points of note. * It will probably fall clear in the bottles (mine is cloudy but clears up with three days in the bottle) * During the boil use whirlfloc or kettle finings.
My gluten free home brewing blog.http://gfhomebrewing.blogspot.com/ Drinking: Hopped Honey IPA Fermenting: 2 Ciders with S-33 Yeast, Summer Pale Ale and a West Coast IPA Planning: Belgian Triple, Blood Orange Wit and American IPA All gluten free.
You can use gelatin (boiled in water and then added to carboy or bottling bucket or keg etc). I had this problem a bunch too at first (I use a lot of gf grains as well) and time, cold crashing, whirfloc etc all help to reduce the cloudy suspended proteins in the beer. I usually do 1-2 weeks in the primary ferm, at lest 2 weeks in the 2nd ferm with the last week spent in the fridge to cold crash, and then keg it. If I am making a beer with more grains (ie stouts, porters any kind of darker beer) I usually cold crash for longer. I think the suspended proteins affect the taste. good luck
Did your dad leave it in secondary for a few weeks? Patience, Grasshopper....
So far, I've had more experience thinking than I've had brewing....you don't think they are mutually exclusive, do you? 72 batches so far, 48 wine, mostly Loquat, peach, plum, prickly pear 23 beers and ciders 1 sauerkraut 1 Tequila, from a prickly pear wine experiment that didn't work. I call it "Prickly Heat"
He only kept the beer in the primary, but it was in there a while. Luckily, he opened up one yesterday and said that it tasted pretty good, with low carbonation. I'll check out a bottle for myself when I visit him next to see how it comes along. I'll have to keep these kettle finings, whirlfloc and gelatin in mind when I make the next recipe to prevent the cloudiness from happening.

The show's co-hosts haven't been announced yet*, but At the Movies will air on PBS stations around the country. As of yet, there is no plan to air it on OPB.(Boo.)
The show will return to WTTW, Chicago Public Television, where Gene Siskel and I first taped "Sneak Previews" in 1975. The station still has our original seats, but we are constructing an all new set. Our critics of course will be back in the iconic balcony, and will be using the famous "thumbs up / thumbs down" rating system.As someone who unabashedly loves Ebert (even though his reviews are dead wrong a lot of the time—the man simply loves writing more than any other writer I can think of, and is therefore always a pleasure to read), I'll be happy to see his (sort of) return to TV—if we ever get the chance to see it in Oregon. Here's hoping.

Shawcross learns his lesson
Stoke defender Ryan Shawcross is heading for a dream ending to the season after a start that was the stuff of nightmares. He was dropped by manager Tony Pulis following the opening day drubbing by Bolton at the Reebok Stadium. It was two long months before he won his place back in the league team but since then the 21-year-old former Manchester United starlet has gone from strength to strength. He is set to retain his place against Hull thanks to a change of attitude. Pulis said: "Ryan has improved. He was a little bit starry-eyed at the beginning of the season. We left him out and since coming back he has been outstanding. Now and then everyone needs a rest. "He is only a young kid, he has got to keep his feet on the ground and keep working hard. There is a lot more to come from him."

The airline leaves bankruptcy protection for a marketplace where perks, not cutbacks, rule.
When Northwest Airlines entered bankruptcy 20 months ago for a badly needed financial makeover, U.S. airlines were concluding their race to see how fast they could eliminate longstanding amenities.
Reeling from the effects of 9/11 and rising fuel prices, airlines removed everything from pillows to snacks to free magazines in their cabins.
When Northwest emerges from bankruptcy-court protection Thursday, it will face a new battle, one in which carriers are restoring passenger perks, particularly in the first-class and business-class sections that represent a big share of their profits.
Terry Trippler, a Minneapolis airline expert, said the passengers "up front are demanding better services, better meals, better wine and better seating, and the airlines are responding."
At American Airlines, for example, new business class seats are being installed in its 58 Boeing 767-300 jets, metal silverware has reappeared for meal service and the carrier has introduced new wines.
United, which also restructured in bankruptcy, has decided to offer a new "United First Suite" on planes carrying passengers overseas. The carrier said that it will begin introducing the suite, which is 3 inches wider and reclines to a flat 6-foot, 6-inch bed, in the fourth quarter of this year.
United and Northwest have key elements of their business in the Pacific market, and United recently began flying a coveted new route between Washington, D.C., and Beijing.
Entertainment also is emerging as a new battleground.
Smita Premkumar, general manager of product marketing at Delta Air Lines, said Delta will finish installing new entertainment systems on its Boeing 777s by next month. On some Delta flights, she said, "We just launched HBO on demand May 1."
Atlanta-based Delta, which entered bankruptcy on the same day as Northwest in September 2005 and exited from court protection on April 30, initiated a major media campaign this month to showcase the airline's changes.
Delta has been making improvements ranging from installing Nintendo machines at certain airports to keep passengers amused while they wait for flights to the addition of 60 international routes within the past year.
"We wanted to emerge and make a splash about the fact that we are reborn," Premkumar said.
Delta also has added some glitz to its offerings, hiring restaurateur Rande Gerber, husband of supermodel Cindy Crawford, to develop "signature cocktails" for drink offerings on Delta flights.
In contrast to Delta, Northwest has not launched an advertising campaign for its departure from bankruptcy, and it is not yet divulging its plans for product improvements.
Some upgrades ahead
However, Mary Linder, Northwest's senior vice president of corporate and brand communications, acknowledged that some upgrades are in the works.
"During bankruptcy, we conducted extensive research with our customers," she said. "We are now working hard on several product initiatives in response to what our customers told us."
The Eagan-based carrier points out that it has already made some significant improvements for international travelers and passengers who sit in the front of the plane. During bankruptcy, it continued to take delivery of Airbus A330s, which are flown to many international cities and feature state-of-the art entertainment systems and lie-flat seats in business class.

December was an incredible month on the App Store. We handed out several well-deserved Must Have ratings to games, including Trenches II, Sleepy Jack, Bug Princess, Grand Theft Auto III, Sonic CD, The Adventures of Tintin, Bejeweled, and Mini Motor Racing.

February was another solid month of iPhone game releases, but the big-budget companies of Gameloft and EA stole the show.

After the rush of amazing games at the end of 2010, 2011 got off to a bit of a weak start.

Altrincham is close by. Home of many businesses, including Superetrader.
Called yesterday and arranged to pick it up directly from their offices.
It looks absolutely fantastic, but I haven't had a chance to do anything with it yet, so sorry no further Desire HD goodness.
But I just had to let you know that they do exist and are being shipped AND THAT I'VE GOT ONE
One interesting thing, which everyone may know except me, is that the screen protectors have a correct way to be applied, the corners are slightly different top and bottom (protective cover labels are at the bottom)
PS Thanks to everyone at Superetrader for there for their help.

You may remember Juju Chang brought us an interview last week with reality TV star Heidi Montag, who at 23 underwent a staggering 10 plastic surgery procedures in what most critics called a desperate cry for help. Now we meet "Martine," who has spent the past three decades trying to perfect her face, starting with a nosejob in hers 20s, a facelift in her 40s and now, a second facelift procedure. She is not alone. As correspondent Ryan Owens and producer Danielle Atkin report, the plastic surgery "re-do" is on the rise. Martine's doctor estimates more than half of his cases involve repeat work — with so many unhappy patients that he wrote the book "The Facelift Letdown." And it's not just the face — many women, like L.B., pictured above, are also having their breasts redone as those hands of time tick by. We'll have a closer look the revisionist plastic surgery trend, tonight.
Plastic Surgery Do-Overs on the Rise

Another poll shows same result: Obama, McCain tied
It appeared as though we could go five minutes without a new poll being released. Wrong. A new poll is out and the results are the same.
It's a tie. Barack Obama and John McCain are deadlocked according to a new NBC/Wall Street Journal poll. Obama does have a one point lead (47 percent to 46 percent) but with the 3.3 percent margin of error, the race is a toss-up.
Palin excitement
As noted earlier, the more you dig into a poll the more you can find. For example, the "enthusiasm factor" -- which is how excited the voters are for a candidate -- shows big movement for the McCain-Palin team.
The enthusiasm factor thus far for John McCain has been lackluster, especially when compared to Obama's supporters. However, with the addition of Sarah Palin to McCain's ticket, excitement has increased significantly -- going up three times the amount from just one month ago.
But compared to the enthusiasm that Obama supporters have for their candidate, McCain's numbers still pale in comparison -- 55 percent for Obama to 34 percent for McCain.
Women wobble
Another notable excerpt from the poll is the movement among women. An earlier poll, the Washington Post/USA Today poll, showed a sizable shift among white women to the McCain-Palin ticket -- some 20 percentage points.

The family of the slain DSP, Zia-ul-Haque, on Wednesday rubbished the post-mortem report and contended that he was shot thrice, and not once as claimed in the report.
Mr. Haque, the Circle Officer of Kunda tehsil in Pratapgarh district, was killed on Saturday in a clash that erupted over the murder of a village pradhan in the Hathgawan area.
The post-mortem report said he was shot once in the back and the bullet exited through the chest after damaging his internal organs. A medical student in Lucknow, Mr. Haque's wife Parveen Azad, however, claimed she saw one bullet wound each on her husband's knees and one bullet on the upper body. The DSP's uncle Phul Mohammed also claimed the same thing. "Everybody in the area is bought. It was a clear cut conspiracy." he said.
Ms. Azad said there were no bullet marks on his trousers, suggesting he was stripped before being shot. She alleged her husband was assaulted and dragged before being shot, saying he had deep wounds on his head. Locals have confirmed that Mr. Haque was assaulted before being shot. However, nobody has agreed to come on record, or provided details.
The Uttar Pradesh police are yet to retrieve the bullet that killed Mr. Haque and the weapon used. It is speculated that the DSP might have been shot with his own service revolver as his weapon has gone missing after the incident.
His family members told The Hindu that he was under pressure to exclude some names from a report he was scheduled to submit to the Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High Court on March 12. The report dealt with last June's violence in Asthan village, in which around 50 Muslims homes were razed after a 14-year-old Dalit girl was raped and murdered; illegal sand mining in the region could also have been the trigger.
The report was to name 140 people, including some close to Kunda MLA Raghuraj Pratap Singh, who has been booked for conspiracy. Mr. Haque's family said he had been worried over their security after he received threats, and had even been contemplating leaving his job.
Missing key and mobile
Ms. Azad has also raised doubts over a missing key and a mobile phone belonging to her husband. According to her, her husband always used to carry his mobile and camera with him while going out. However, his phone was switched off on the day of the incident. The keys to his house were also missing, Ms. Azad said, adding that at home he stored important documents related to his investigation.

Mash illustrated a velvet glove in a very refined elegant style used in the 1920's. The name lent itself beautifully to a velvet label which screams luxury to the touch and then applied to a new amazing shaped bottle finished off with a wax dipped cork. Drinks well with anything."

Designed by It's Everyday™ | Country: Romania | Fonts used: Neutraface
"Canah was our baby: the first commercial producers of hemp in Romania, with big plans. All very eco-friendly, involving the use of local farmers and traditional methods. We did their naming, branding, site, copywriting, promo materials and packaging.
Actually coming up with the final products involved some pretty serious research into spectrum-blocking glass, which we ordered from Switzerland, to protect the fragile hemp oil. We wanted to keep the actual hemp imagery to a bare minimum, avoiding the other connotations that hemp products carry. Sadly the team which realised our designs managed to mess them up, but Canah remains one of our favourite projects."

"Sweet's Candy needed a rejuvenation for their century-old product and a face lift for their decades-old packaging. Something to match the quality of the product and launch it into a category all its own, Gourmet Taffy. The solution came in the form of the Sweet's custom Taffy Twist Box. This unique design leveraged the talents of a local manufacturer to get out-of-country prices at an in-state establishment. As a result, Sweet's has now sold over 750,000 units and counting of Signature Series products based on design alone. Now that's tasty."

Designed by Bruketa&ZinicOM | Country: Croatia
Chiavalon is not just any olive oil. It is made in the Croatian region of Istria, from the same olive groves that once belonged to Ancient Roman emperors.
The designers chose simple small bottles and placed them in a recycled paper bag. Ruth Hoffmann, the project's Art Director said, 'This is a totally natural product and we wanted to accentuate that. You take this paper bag and the rustling is reminiscent of the weekly vegetable market, where the farmer puts fresh vegetables or fruits in a paper bag.' Furthermore, the paper bag keeps the bottle from becoming greasy. Continue…

Insurance survey vs purchase survey

It should be possible to get a CG courtesy inspection.. you'd have to contact the station at False Creek to see what the deal is there.. I know that often various Yacht clubs arrange on-site inspections on an annual basis and the CG attends and checks those boats participating.
However that is unlikely to satisfy an insurance co's request.
The irksome part about the mandated insurance surveys is that by the time they are required there's really nobody besides yourself as familiar with the boat. I virtually dictated my own insurance survey last year and got to pay $450 ($10/minute!!) for the privilege. Still, it's one of those hoops we all have to jump through.
I can tell you that the surveyor I used for that would not be one I'd call on for a serious pre purchase survey. But since as far as I'm concerned, an insurance survey for continued coverage is a 'rubber stamp' I don't suppose it matters who does it; what you need is that persons' 'stamp of approval'.
There may well be a list of approved surveyors so check with your carrier before booking a survey. Make sure your fire extinguishers and flares are up to date before you have the guy over... and that all your lights work. They may well not look far beyond that...

Fast start puts Dawgs in control
Georgia jumped on Auburn early and cruised to SEC East title with 38-0 win
AUBURN, Ala. -- The Georgia-Auburn series history is littered with examples of the underdog rising to crush its rival's championship hopes.
But Georgia didn't need any miraculous pass breakups to cause sugar to fall from the sky or last-minute touchdown catches reminiscent of David Greene to Michael Johnson to clinch its spot in this season's SEC championship game.
"Our goal really was to start fast. That's why we came out with the tempo, the no-huddle," said Georgia offensive coordinator Mike Bobo, whose players picked up 70 yards on five scripted plays to open the game before scoring with a 6-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Murray to Chris Conley on the sixth.
"We do no-huddle all the time, but we ran a faster-paced no-huddle with some set plays. The guys did a great job of executing that -- and that was big to take the first drive down and score a touchdown."
The last thing Georgia (9-1, 7-1 SEC) needed was to give the punchless Tigers (2-8, 0-7) any reason to believe they could compete on Saturday. Not after the way the Bulldogs allowed a similarly hapless Kentucky team to hang around into the fourth quarter before Georgia finally hung on for a 29-24 victory three weeks ago.
Unlike that trip to Lexington, however, Georgia started quickly on both sides of the ball and used touchdown drives on each of its first four possessions to go up 28-0. That was more than enough to break any semblance of will Auburn might have developed last week, when a win against New Mexico State ended a five-game losing streak.
"It has been one of those years where it has kind of snowballed in momentum, and we haven't been able to really catch any," embattled Auburn coach Gene Chizik said as rumors swirl about his job status only two seasons removed from a BCS championship.
In the end, the same Jordan-Hare Stadium where Auburn fans wildly celebrated an SEC West title the last time the teams met here was mostly empty -- except for the fans wearing red and black who soaked up every minute of the championship-clinching win.
Georgia easily could have topped its largest margin of victory in series history -- 41 points in 1946 -- but it left Murray and most of the other key offensive players on the sideline for the entire fourth quarter. Defensive coordinator Todd Grantham was not as generous, however, as many of his starters remained on the field late into the final period, and the Bulldogs sealed their first shutout victory against Auburn since 1976.
Bulldogs coach Mark Richt was quick to spread the credit for Auburn's goose egg to the offensive and special teams players who didn't put Grantham's defense in any bad spots. Auburn's best starting field position all game was its 36-yard line. The Tigers started inside their own 15 five times in 12 possessions.
"Anytime you get a shutout is huge -- and you usually get a shutout because there aren't any turnovers," Richt said. "A lot of times your defense may play lights out, but if you throw a pick six or fumble it inside your 20 or your kick returner fumbles the ball on a kickoff and puts the defense in a bad position, it's hard to get a shutout when somebody's already in field-goal range.
"So shutouts really are a team thing, and as good as your defense is playing, I've seen a lot of great defensive performances and still gave up three or seven or 10 points because of some bad turnovers and bad field position."
Place credit wherever you like, but the streaking Bulldogs absolutely crushed their oldest rival in every possible way on Saturday, punching their ticket to Atlanta with one of their most dominant performances of the season.
The defense notched a shutout, and the Bulldogs outgained the Tigers 497 yards to 238. Murray completed his first 10 passes and finished 18-for-24 for 208 yards with touchdown passes to three different receivers. Jarvis Jones notched two sacks to reach 10.5 this season. Freshman tailbacks Todd Gurley (11 carries for 116 yards) and Keith Marshall (8-105) both topped the 100-yard mark for the first time since the Tennessee game.
And they did all of that at the same place where Georgia's veterans suffered one of the most bitter defeats of their college careers -- at Auburn, where a game full of cheap shots and general roughhousing left Murray bloodied and limping from the field and Georgia fans outraged as Nick Fairley, Cam Newton and company continued their trek to a national title.
"That was probably one of the toughest losses I've ever been a part of -- physically, mentally, it was a tough loss," Murray said. "But to come back this season and win here is great. I never want to come back here ever again."

#1279109 Prudential Center's New "No Smoking" Policy
Posted by Colorado Rockies 1976 on 25 September 2014 - 08:23 AM
I quit smoking in May of 2001 and haven't taken a puff since, after smoking for about 9 years. (About 4-5 packs a week).
Some hard-core smokers will complain about "health Nazis", whatever, but let's face it, smoking is stupid and there's no defending it: nothing good comes out of it, on many levels it's actually kind of selfish (secondhand smoke harms other people, and family members (like your children) may have to deal with taking care of you later in life, after smoking has done its irreparable harm), they're a fire hazard, and butts being left all over the place is disgusting. And it reeks.
Sorry, but if you can't handle 2.5-3 hrs of not smoking when you go to a Devils' game, that's YOUR problem. You can light up just before you hit the 25 feet border, and do the same just after. It's not that much to ask.

#1278073 Devils re-sign Gelinas
Posted by Colorado Rockies 1976 on 15 September 2014 - 02:19 PM
How did Lou give in? 900k is pretty cheap for what Gelinas did offensively and in line with Larsson's deal (and Larsson didn't spend nearly the time in the NHL Gelinas did last year). I think it was absolutely intentional Gelinas and Larsson got the same deal.
I don't think Gelinas gained or lost anything by signing now as opposed to last month.
Lupien: "We'd like 3 years, $4 million."
Lou: "How about one year, $900k?"
Lupien: "OK, how about two years, $2.4 mil?
Lou: "How about one year, $900k?"
Lupien: "Two years at $1.05 mil each?"
Lou: "I like one year at $900k each myself."
Lupien: "One year at $1.1 mil then?"
Lou: "I was thinking...wait for it...one year at $900k."
Lupien: "How 'bout..."
Lou: "How about you stop wasting my fvcking time and sign the only offer you're going to get? I have to start tracking down all of the bodies I'm inviting to training camp."
Lupien: "Fine, one year, $900k then" {mutters "fvcking Lou, that son-of-a..." to himself}
Lou: "Pleasure doing business with you Gilly...tell Marty I said hi the next time you see him!"

#1274601 Andy Greene Signed +5 years @ $5M Per Season
Posted by Colorado Rockies 1976 on 30 July 2014 - 03:26 PM
I think we're seeing Lou get to build the team how he wants to under this new ownership. Lou has shown many times in the past that if a player is an important piece, he will sign them early. People will always point to Zach, but I think this is showing us that Zach was just a case of a perfect storm of bad timing, with a lack of money, a massive Kovy deal, an impending lockout and the not-so-secretive Minnesota money all coming together.
I remember Lou kind of taking a swipe at previous ownership (or what passes for one in Lou-speak)...I forget exactly what he said, but I remember him implying that he was hamstrung financially and wasn't able to do everything he would've liked.
fvck you a$$hole.
Well that's a step up from the last thing you called me...good to see I'm moving up ze ranks.

Of course Lou waits until there's only 336 days left to finally talk to Greene.
How long before we get a "See, Lou has finally learned his lesson!"...in (garbled) English and in French.
Anyway, glad Greene is back...good for him, he's made himself into a nice defenseman. Would love to know the terms though.

#1273736 Let's start a pool of where Brodeur will end up
Posted by Colorado Rockies 1976 on 15 July 2014 - 02:16 PM
I disagree I feel like hitting 700 would be something he wants.
Sad thing is, unless he surprises the hell out of everyone (first by finding someone to sign him, and then by playing well), if he limps to 700, a fair number who saw him play will say, "Yeah, but he hung on too long." It's the hanging on too long part that neither Roy or Hasek were guilty of...in Roy's case, people who look only at the numbers as time goes by will say "Why the hell did Roy retire? He was still playing great!"

Continuing the WarGames theme:

Torts: I don't have to take that, you pig-eyed sack of sh!t.
Sather: I was hoping for something a little better than that from a man of your education. And step into my office...cause you're fvckin' fired! (OK, that last bit isn't from WarGames)

#1267573 So Apparently The Rumor Is Kovy Could Be Coming Back
Posted by Colorado Rockies 1976 on 09 June 2014 - 11:10 AM
I'm not gonna argue with you,it's obvious you don't like Kovi, but one thing you guys are missing is the availability of players
we don't have a lot to offer in a trade, we don't have a stacked minor league system (forwards), we don't draw free agent like the big market teams
how do you expect Lou to make this team better?
one player cant do it all, but he can help in our weak areas
Find me one team where all the forwards have excellent stats.....it's never gonna happen
Guess you didn't read any of my posts when Kovy left. I said I didn't really hold his choosing to leave against him, that if he wasn't happy here and his heart truly wasn't into being a Devil or being in America for that matter, I wasn't going to judge him for it, or have any hard feelings. I'd rather he not be here than be completely miserable being a Devil, which apparently he would've been at that time had he stayed.
If I truly thought that Kovy could help this team (because that's all I really care about...can he make the Devils better?), then I'd be all for it (and admittedly even discussing this is probably pointless), though nervous (see below). But I don't think he does. I've already stated why. He had a pretty disappointing year in a lesser league last season, after a not-so-great season in the NHL in 2013.
You don't really have any proof that he's going to be that much of a help here, outside of blind hope...you're coming off like his coming here will lead to an automatic playoff berth, and him being productive. Like I've said, I don't have anything against Kovy personally, but if any of this crap is true, he wanted to go back home, even left a lot of money on the table because he wanted to go home that badly (though he signed for nice money over there, to play in a lot less games per season), but now he wants to come back and leave SKA behind? Sorry, I'd be a little nervous about a guy prone to that kind of flip-flopping, even if was only for a one-year or two-year deal...if Kovy is about halfway through this season and is clearly having a rough time, do you put it past him to say "Screw this"? Is it really that much of a stretch to think he might not honor yet another deal, after bailing on two long-term contracts?

Posted by Colorado Rockies 1976 on 31 May 2014 - 06:07 PM
not everyone takes sports as seriously as most of us Devils fans do
Soooo many people just go with the flow and have a good time doing it....I wish I could, but....
For a lot of people, this is what professional sports represent. A fun diversion that they don't really invest themselves into heavily. These people aren't fanatics; they're casual observers who only stand up and take notice when something big is happening (like a deep playoff run).
I can't get that worked up about that type of "observer" (to call them fans is an insult to real fans). Now if someone I knew who'd been a Devil fan for years suddenly decided to switch allegiances to the Rangers because of what they've done this season...THAT person I'd have absolutely no use for as a sports fan.
What you hope for is that a percentage of these observer-types might decide to take the next step and slowly but surely educate themselves on the finer points of the game, choose a team, and stick with them instead of going with the hot hand. But no matter what, there will always be observer, go with the lead-horse types.

#1266138 Confronting the Nightmare - UPDATE: NIGHTMARE OVER, KINGS WIN!
Posted by Colorado Rockies 1976 on 30 May 2014 - 06:57 AM
Woe is us now...
Meh, what are you going to do? The nature of sports is cyclical. Hopefully, you get to root for a team like ours, where the truly awful down cycles are either nearly non-existent, or relatively short-lived (we'll see how long this one lasts, but at least in among the three non-playoff seasons was a memorable Cup run). In a perfect world (my version, anyway), the Rangers would suck every year. But in today's NHL, it's hard to be hapless season after season after season, unless you have a lot of drafts go belly-up, insanely rotten luck, or your front office is constantly making awful decisions. And with the playoffs having more of a crapshoot feel now than ever, it's all about getting hot (with a little luck thrown in) at the right time...home ice and seedings simply don't mean a whole hell of a lot. In general the Rangers are playing pretty well right now, and though the circumstances are clearly very tragic, St. Louis losing his mother seems to have somehow brought those players together...not in a "Let's win one for St. Louis and his mom!" way, but the way his teammates were there for him just seems to have brought them together and made them closer, and that appears to be helping them on the ice.
As much as I hate the idea, if the Rangers do win the Cup, so be it, but like others have alluded to, I don't want to hear comparisons to '94. Those teams are nothing alike...just let the 2014 bunch be the 2014 bunch without trying to create artificial parallels for the sake of manufacturing a storyline that isn't there. And I also don't want to hear anything about what a "genius" Glen Sather is, and how he never lost it after all of these years. Glen Sather has largely been a bad GM in his Ranger tenure, and I'm going to guess his earlier Ranger track record would've gotten him fired from at least 20 other organizations, if not more. No one has a 14-year-or-so plan to win a Cup.
Sometimes you get some random luck too. You don't draft a goalie in the 7th round (205th overall) thinking you've found your franchise netminder. Just like the New England Patriots got lucky with Tom Brady (6th round, 199th overall), the Rangers struck gold with Lundqvist. I'm not knocking them for it...more just saying that I don't want to hear revisionist historians now make it sound like Sather knew something everyone else didn't. If Sather or anyone else know Lundqvist had a definite future as a reliable top-tier #1 goalie, no way anyone takes a chance on him slipping through their fingers when he's there for the taking in the 3rd round, 4th round, etc.
But enough of that...I don't want to go into pure "sour grapes" mode. Yeah, the Rags are in the SCF. Yeah, I hate that they are. Yeah, I hate that the pendulum has swung the other way. I'm not going to start spewing accolates, but at the same time, I don't want to now start downplaying or minimizing what the Rangers have done to make me feel better about myself or the Devils. The Rangers have accomplished what they've accomplished, and all of the "yeah but"s we try to attach to what they've done won't change anything. They faced who they faced and they beat them.
For me, now it's about wondering what the Devils have to do to get back to where they were...actually, in today's NHL, it's what can the Devils do to get themselves back into the playoffs (where seemingly anything can happen)? I'll always hate the Rangers and the majority of their fans for the reasons I've stated multiple times, but now, instead of worrying about them (though I'll be rooting VERY hard for their SCF opponent), I'm going to concern myself with how do the Devils get back to being what they were (with new faces), regardless of the amount of time it takes them to get there. Hopefully that starts with Lou NOT re-signing Gio and Marty.

#1265469 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs thread
Posted by Colorado Rockies 1976 on 25 May 2014 - 06:48 AM
Well, I did that after we lost to you in 2012. Agreed completely on the format. It's disappointing how much NBC/CBC spread out the series. It's the Conference Finals and it's being treated like the NBA. It hurts each series. I knew we would lose Game 3. That extra day benefited the Habs. Maybe this time around, it helps the Rangers with Brassard. My gut feeling is the Game 4 winner will advance. I am definitely concerned. Especially if Stepan can't go.
In 2000, I went for Dallas. But it would've been nice to see Buffalo beat them the year before. For LOTCB (Brian). Nobody has had it tougher than him. Neither of our sides have had to deal with as much heartache as Sabres fans. Same for Blues. They are mirror images. In 2003, I wanted Ottawa of course. But once you made it, I knew they wouldn't lose to Anaheim. Especially in Game 7.
Biggest rival? It depends who you ask. The old-time fan will say the Islanders. It's sad that they won't be on Long Island anymore. Barclays is not great. If you're going off recent history, it's the Devils. The hatred is pretty intense. But it's more Devils fans. Personally, I hate the Pens the most. That series game me more satisfaction than what they did in 2012. I can't stand them. The Crosby network. The league ignoring what their stars get away with. Mario Lemieux. They are the definition of loathsome. I can't respect guys like Neal and Kunitz. Crosby will never compare to Toews. He's not a true leader. Would a real superstar vanish as frequently as he has when teams play him tough? Don't forget the Flyers even though the first round series lacked emotion. It was weird.
I'm not sure I answered your question. But you might want to rethink how our fanbase feels towards the Pens.
I think with some teams, you have your long-time rivals, the Hadfields to your McCoys. For you, I think it's the Islanders...it doesn't matter if both teams are good, both are bad, or only one is relevant...the hatred is always there, and those games have a way of stirring up their fanbases. The Devils have become a similar entity for you for sure. That absurd regular-season unbeaten streak the Devils enjoyed at the Rangers' expense had to have added to the hatred on your side (just like the Devils losing to them in the playoffs in '92, '94 and '97 did to us).
On our side, I think it's the Rangers and the Flyers, especially since there's been a fair number of memorable playoff matchups over the last 20 years. I attended the elimination game in 2008, and it was beyond awful...Avery doing his thing and actually succeeding, Ranger fans coming into the building and taking over while the Devils fans in attendance just sat there and let it happen...just sucked on every level. One of my lowest and most disappointing moments as a Devils fan. I don't really let awful moments like that linger on and on, but 2008 (losing to the Rangers in five), 2009 (losing to the 'Canes in seven in murderously excruciating fashion), and 2010 (getting waxed by the Flyers in five) were rough...especially since each series looked very similar at times, with the Devils looking 2-3 steps slower than their opponent, unable to receive passes cleanly, looking easily overwhelmed. And when you factor in that the Devils were now meekly and almost routinely losing playoff series in five games (Flyers in 2004, 'Canes in the second round in 2006, Ottawa in 2007), though it's clearly always great to make the playoffs at all, the Devils had become a relatively easy out. And the less said about 2011 (10-29-2 first half), the better. 2012 and beating both the Flyers AND the Rangers in winning the Eastern Conference was almost NEEDED at that point. It allowed us all to wash the lingering bad tastes of 2004, 2008, and 2010 and the recent poor playoff performances out of our mouths, almost all at once. That season still would have been terrific no matter who the Devils faced to get to the SCF, but there was something very catharic about beating the Flyers and Rangers to get there.
Anyway, I think the Pens have kind of become a "short-term" rival for you. That can happen for a number of reasons...a particularly bloody playoff series, a succession of chippy games played against each other, a relatively high frequency of playoff matchups in a relatively short period of time, etc. At times for the Devils, that's been the Leafs, the 'Canes, the Senators...the ironic thing is the Devils have actually held their own against the Pens in the regular season, so much so that their fans were afraid of facing the Devils in the playoffs this season...though I don't like Crosby or the Pens (I hate that they just luck/tank their way into getting generational talents), I don't really put in them in the fierce rival category. The 'Canes have become a rival mostly by virtue of having beaten the Devils in the playoffs in 2002, 2006, and 2009...and I've never been a fan of Batboy Eric Staal. THAT'S a team the Devils really need to beat whenever they meet again in the playoffs, for sanity's sake.

Just how many assumptions are included here?
My family has lived on Central Jersey since 1760. And I've probably been to 200 Devils games.
As a member of this board from inception, the level of discourse in this thread has reached embarrassing ly low level.
If all you have to bring to the conversation is antipathy to the Rangers you may not be alone, but certainly not adding to anyone's understanding or appreciation of the game of hockey.
It's not like I'm constantly spewing Ranger hatred on these boards. I've talked about it at times, as have others. This all really started with Manta, who I get along with fine most of the time...his saying that he was "cheering" for the Rangers was bound to get some kind of reaction, in that it's an extremely unusual thing to say for a Devil fan. That shouldn't be so hard to grasp.
Also shouldn't be so hard to grasp that many Devils fans (many of the ones I've met, anyway...I don't pretend to know every single Devils fan in NJ) really despise the Rangers. Like I've said, for a lot of the Devils' fans, the Rangers are our chief rival. Is that really so far-fetched?
What exactly are YOU bringing to this discussion, other than a hall-monitor mentality? I wasn't aware it was everyone's job to add to everyone's understanding or appreciation of the game of hockey through their posts. Sometimes posts are made based more on raw emotions than anything else.

Posted by Colorado Rockies 1976 on 21 May 2014 - 09:42 AM
OK -- now lets have a more honest, less "Because we're better fans than you" defensive sort of response to point's post.
It's more like type A type B personalities. It certainly isn't better or more invested fans.
Some people gain added enjoyment with upping the stakes. Rivalries amp up the impact of the sport for some people. Each individual game isn't enough -- there needs to be over-arching foes and fictional complications. Like people who really enjoy added drama in their lives. These personality types will gain from hating specific teams long-term and holding grudges.
Others are equally passionate, but on a game by game basis. Each foe is equally dangerous and loathsome until conquered. There doesn't need to be an over-arching story line to maintain interest and passion. I think this sort of connection to a team is more difficult to maintain personally. You have to be able to plug in and out pretty quickly. I admit my brain is really more this way but in my gut, I get afraid that if I let things go after they're done I'll lose touch -- I'll lose my fan high.
There wasn't anything dishonest or defensive about my post at all. I think it was a pretty fair explanation about why a lot of Devils fans despise everything Ranger-related. I didn't attack point's level of fandom...I didn't even mention it. Never said I was a better fan than him...but at the same time, even if he doesn't agree with MD2020 and others, he should at least be able to understand why some Devils fans passionately hate the Rangers without someone having to tell him.
I don't need you to psychoanalyze the reasons why I happen to hate the Rangers...you of all people shouldn't be trying to get into anyone's heads. It's not like the Devils haven't had fierce rivalries with other teams (Flyers, Hurricanes), but I don't hate the Flyers really, or the Hurricanes (and the Devils/Flyers rivarly has been an intense one, especially when the Rangers were irrelevant there for a while). Sorry, hating the Rangers doesn't mean I'm like people who are constantly on the lookout for extra drama in their lives...that's a ridiculous connection to try to make. I don't need any over-arching story lines or any of that crap...I watch as many Devils games as I possibly can, and I'm pretty equally passionate about all of them as I'm watching. Yeah, there's always a little more juice with some teams, either because of rivalries or something more being at stake (like standings or a playoff position). But I think that's all sports. There's always going to be rivalry games that mean just a little more on the schedule to fans than others, and there's no deep reasons for it, other than "They're the bad guys." Even if they're not really "bad".

I go to bed every night with a NYR fan whom I hauled to CAA for THREE SCF. She hasn't given me any grief over the NJD, and I watch the NYR as a fairly disinterested observer.
Why are so many posters in such a pantytwist over theRags? Get over it!
Not sure why you should need this explained to you, but I'll give it a try:
Many of us find Ranger fans both dumb and annoying; to be fair, it doesn't sound like your sig other is one of them.
It's been discussed in detail WHY so many of us find Ranger fans dumb and annoying. They make the same tired jokes over and over again. They think that the Rangers, by virtue of playing in New York, somehow makes that franchise the NHL equivalent of the New York Yankees...they talk about proud traditions, etc., when they've been much closer to the Cubs overall than the Yankees. The one tradition they've proven to be very good at is celebrating one bought Cup win over and over and over again...Rangers basically emptied out the farm to win that '94 Cup, and that "all in" approach, while successful, cost them for years. But as many have pointed out, no other franchise has ever re-celebrated a Cup win as shamelessly and as embarrassingly as the Rangers franchise and their fans.
In 2012, after they lost to the Devils in Game 6 in the ECF, there were boneheads saying things like "Duuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhh, unless da Debbies (they think it's just hilarious when they call the Devils "the Debbies") win da Cup, it don't matta, 'cause in ninedy-fawr, we won da Cup afta beading dem in da Eastewn Cawnfurence Finawls!" Those losers STILL think NHL hockey stopped for everyone else in '94, just like it did for them. I made the mistake of trying to explain to a bunch of them that losing to the Rangers in the '94 ECF wasn't exactly haunting Devils fans anymore...we saw the team win the Cup the very next season, saw them win again in 2000 and 2003, come within a game of winning another Cup in 2001, and watched the Devils reach the SCF in 2012 at the Rangers' expense. Nope, for those stupid fans (and the Ranger fanbase is by far the most collectively stupid one I've dealt with), it was ninedy-fawr, ninedy-fawr, ninedy-fawr. I used to participate on the ESPN boards back in 2000 and 2001, and the idiot Ranger fans who used to post there were constantly talking about how boring the Devils were, and how more teams need to play "exciting" hockey like the Rangers. Yeah, that 2001 Devils team, the one that led in the NHL in goals scored, the one that boasted two 40+ goal scorers, they sure were sleep-inducing. And the Rangers absolutely SUCKED at that time...they were playing with absolutely ZERO heart and ZERO passion back then. That organization was a complete joke, but Ranger fans couldn't flock fast enough to MSG to watch that trainwreck. Way to give the man upstairs incentive to change things up geniuses!
And of course, I had my fun MSG bathroom experience where, to sum up, a guy made a joke directed at me about the Devils, I made one back, and while I was peeing, he thought it'd be a swell idea to get out of line and hit me in the back of the head three times. I wound up winning the fight that resulted (I tried to walk away, but the guy wouldn't allow it), but I rather would've not fought at all.
I hate the Rangers and the majority of their fanbase. Yes, right now they're better than the Devils, but that doesn't mean any of us have to like it. I'm not going to constantly bitch about them or try to downplay what they're doing, but if you honestly think that Ranger fans wouldn't have their "panties in a twist" over the Devils having this success if the roles were reversed, then I don't what to tell you. For the most part, we hate everything about the Rangers, and they hate everything about us. There's rivalries like that in all of sports, and for the true-blue diehard Devils fans, this ranks right up with the Red Sox-Yankee level of hatred, and it will NEVER change.

Obama ordered Stuxnet cyberattack, reports say. Did it leave US vulnerable?
A New York Times report claims that President Obama used the Stuxnet cyberweapon to set back Iran's nuclear program. But experts caution that the worm could be reverse-engineered.

Stuxnet, the world's first publicly identified cyber superweapon, was unleashed against Iran's nuclear fuel-enrichment facility as part of a joint US-Israel cybersabotage operation, according to press reports Friday citing anonymous administration officials.
While it had long been assumed that the US and Israel were the most likely states to have organized such an attack, the implications of pinning responsibility squarely on the two states could be considerable.
The news reports, which seem to remove any fig leaf of plausible deniability, could in the near term undermine ongoing nuclear talks with Iran. It could even provide Iran with internal justification for a cyber counterstrike against the US.
In the longer run, however, it also raises questions about how a US national policy of using powerful digital weapons could impact American security. Of particular concern is the possibility that such attacks could provide a digital copy of the cyberweapon to rogue nations or that hacktivists could reverse-engineer the weapon for use against the power grid or other key US infrastructure.
"Certainly we have thought Stuxnet was very likely to be a US-Israel operation – and that assumption has now turned out to be the case," says Stewart Baker, a lawyer and former senior official at the National Security Agency and the Department of Homeland Security. "In some ways, I do feel as though we've been living in a glass house for years and now we've decided we're going to invent rocks."

The City of Light has never been a hub of youth hostels and greasy spoons, but if you aren't afraid of really making use of the AmEx Black, consider the itinerary being marketed by travel newsletter guru Andrew Harper. For $300,000 (or $1,800 an hour; we did the math), you get one week in Paris, and what a week it is: private jet to get you there, a suite at the Ritz (pictured) that would make Marie Antoinette bust a corset, private tours, a chauffeur, 24-hour-a-day concierge service provided by Andrew Harper (well, one of his people, at least), and dinner reservations at the swankiest of joints, like Alain Ducasse and Voltaire (just the reservation, mind you—actually eating dinner will cost extra). Each day has its own theme: a Fashion Day with a couture fitting at Chanel, an Art Day with a private tour of the Louvre or the Musée d'Orsay, a Fragrance and Jewels Day that includes meeting a French custom perfume designer.… Since the week will set you back the cost of a college education, may we also suggest a Hire a New Accountant Day?
