This review is from: Zoom 5341-00-00J 5341 Docsis 3.0 Cable Modem Ethernet Port DOCSIS 3.0
Pros: Never reboots, never drops out, rarely reports correctable code word errors and never reports uncorrectable code word errors.
Cons: There is a common issue with blinking US blue light even though US channels are bonded. The blinking doesn't affect performance. Some suspect firmware and some suspect ISP infrastructure.
Other Thoughts: Bought to replace a SB6121 that had frequent reboots with T3 errors, constant drop outs (40-50 per day) and ridiculous amounts of uncorrectable code word errors.READ FULL REVIEW

Pros: Used to work OK.
Cons: Since Arris purchased Motorola Home models SB6120, SB6121 and SB6141 have been plagued with T3 and T4 timeouts that cause frequent modem reboots. My ISP, Mediacom, asked me if I would be willing to test a reworked modem to help solve the problems. Instead I went with another brand.READ FULL REVIEW

Pros: Very fast drive that is a bargain when at sale price.
Cons: I was hoping the drive would identify as removable. A January 2014 post on the Sandisk forum stated that Sandisk changed back to producing flash drives as removable. I thought that I would likely receive a removable drive so I was disappointed.
Other Thoughts: I considered sending the drive back but decided to keep it.READ FULL REVIEW

"Gave me whiplash..."
I couldn't decide whether to bond with Anne Marie Zimmer, or to laugh at her. Almost a self-parody, she went from one calamity to the next and the net effect on me was whiplash.
It's a good story, well-written, but the narration is over the top in drama and there are just too many accents. I don't read a printed book with accents, why do I need to listen to them?
It's a very different novel than "Water for Elephants" and anyone expecting something similar will be disappointed. It's an entertaining story, and compelling, but unfortunately all the loud voices and drama detract.
"Shallow and Generic"
This book was not as advertised. I expected more explorations of the PTSD phenomenon and how it affected the protagonist's present life, rather than a long story of a knock-down, drag-out garden variety kidnapping, complete with archetypical male misogynist behavior. Way too much profanity - I don't mind the f-word now and then, when it's appropriate, but when every other word is an f-word or other hostile profanity, used as an adjective by the main character in her therapy sessions, it's way too much. The character's cookie-cutter variety of hostility against therapy and therapists was also very generic and tiresome.
Added in was the narrator's flat delivery and speed reading. She sounded as though someone was forcing her to read the words and she was just going through the motions. Disappointing, this novel could have been so much more.
"Oh please, not another abridged!!!"
Will you please stop featuring such appealing novels only available in abridged format? I am continually stumped as to why oh why anyone with a brain would even bother to read an abridged novel. Several times I have found on your site what promised to be a good read, but only available in the abridged version, and I have gone to the competition and rented the unabridged cassettes. Please stop the insanity!

The Sad Saga of Bob Greene
When a woman from his past resurfaced, the columnist's 33-year career crashed; then a family tragedy hit home.
(page 9 of 15)
"When I was reporting that," Krance recalls, "I was constantly tripping over stories about how Bob was always hitting on women." The recollections of Greene's modus operandi were all the same: He would invite a young woman-usually an aspiring journalist-out for drinks. His first bar of choice was at the Executive House, now Hotel 71, but he later switched to the atrium bar at the Marriott across the street from the Tribune. His standard line: "Imagine, we're sitting here in this bar and above us there are a thousand empty rooms." In the end, Krance's article concentrated on Greene's writing, saying that "he is the master of the tug at cheap emotion, the king of cloaking a banal observation in fake profundity."
Even if that was what Greene was selling, Tribune readership surveys consistently reflected that the public was buying it. "When I was editor, our marketing surveys showed that Bob Greene's demographics were exactly the kind we wanted," says Squires. "They were basically women, 25 to 50, who spent the money and bought the products. He was the darling of that crowd. He wrote with a kind of Midwestern point of view, a sensible point of view. He had a good grasp for family, for children, all subjects that that group was interested in."
"Johnny Deadline, Reporter and American Beat are two of the best collections of journalism I've ever read," says Bill Zehme, a Chicago-based writer and a contributing editor of Esquire. "Later he became more of a savior, and that's somewhat less entertaining."
* * *
In the 1990s, Bob Greene was best defined by two things: using his columns to defend a series of children seemingly failed by the courts and sinking further into nostalgia. The columns focusing on children started in 1990 with the story of Sarah, born six years earlier addicted to heroin and cocaine, then placed in the foster home of a Bridgeview couple. When Sarah was three, her biological mother, who had completed rehab, and her father decided they wanted their daughter back. Greene disagreed and he wrote passionate columns arguing his point of view. "The case caused something of an uproar, although 95 percent of it was generated by Greene," says Bruce Boyer, the director of the ChildLaw clinic at Loyola University Chicago and an outspoken Greene critic.
Over the next ten years, Greene's columns about abused children became very familiar to his readers: a seven-year-old Wisconsin girl forced to live in a dog cage; a six-year-old Indiana boy chained in a broom closet; the Henry children of Nebraska, who had been tortured by their father with an electric cattle prod. In a way, Greene was conducting old-fashioned crusades, the kind of noble and passionate journalism that gives newspapers life and purpose. He challenged governors-Jim Thompson and Jim Edgar in Illinois, Mike Johanns in Nebraska-to step in and take action. He reprinted devastating courtroom transcripts. And he got results, from intervention in cases he followed to an avalanche of gifts from readers for the victimized children.
Some critics, however, thought that Greene's writing came close to exploiting the children. Because so many of the columns repeated background information and made teasing references to revelations that would appear in the next installment, many journalists came to think that the pieces had taken on an aura of shtick.
The most famous of Greene's crusading columns involved Baby Richard, the centerpiece of perhaps the most dramatic parental custody battle in state history. Over a period of three years, Greene wrote more than 60 columns about the child. His mother had been estranged from her boyfriend, the father, when their son was born. She told him the child was dead and signed away her rights to the infant. Baby Richard was privately adopted. Later, when the father learned the truth and reconciled with the woman, they both wanted their son back. Greene argued that removing the child from his adoptive parents at this stage would be extraordinarily cruel to the boy; most of Illinois, it seemed, agreed. The state supreme court, however, eventually ordered that Baby Richard should be returned to his biological father.

Red Cedar Mulch is annoying me! Can it do damage if...
Whenever people talk about planting with mulch already in a bed, they just say that they move the mulch aside and then plant. It seems as if it's no problem for them. But for me it is such a problem! I try moving all the mulch aside, but then it's all over other plants, there's no room for just the soil to be stacked without the mulch envading, etc! I just planted a new Daylily plant that I got today and it was such a mess, with the mulch getting all throughout the soil! Is this going to hurt my plants? I really wish I hadn't put that mulch in now. I'd much rather just mulch with organic matter so I didn't have to worry about it mixing in when planting. How long will it take for this mulch to disintegrate? Will the buried mulch (there is tons of it!) disintegrate faster? If so, how much faster? I hope it will be a LOT faster. I can't stand having this stuff in my soil.
I've also heard people say that their mulch always makes it's way back to the top after rain, and that doesn't happen for me either! It just stays throughout my soil. :(
no, it won't return to the top once mixed in - cedar is one of the longer lasting woods, needs lots of N to break down, but it will - meanwhile you'll need to be adding regular hi-N materials to supply enuff for the plants, as the cedar will tie it up
That is one of the reasons why I do not recommend using wood chips, or any other woody material, as a mulch in flower beds. If your soil has been well amended with compost and other organic matter there should be enough Nitrogen in the soil to take care of a small amount of woody material, the problem really comes when large quantities of woody material are mixed into the soil. Watch the daylilly and see how it grows before getting overly concerned. Depending on how healthy your soil is the cedar mulch may get digested fairly fast, a year, or it may last for quite some time if the soil is not really healthy.
"there's no room for just the soil to be stacked without the mulch envading, etc! I just planted a new Daylily plant that I got today and it was such a mess, with the mulch getting all throughout the soil!"
daylily, you might find this will help, what I do when planting is push the mulch aside so it is out of the way of the hole Im digging, then as I dig out the soil, I put it into a pot, put the plant in, and then use the soil from the pot to fill it in, push the mulch back over to cover it all up. if there isnt enough room to push the mulch aside, just have a second pot on hand to put the mulch into aswell and tip it back on when youre finished planting.

In order to adapt a general-purpose calculator to specific tasks, the keyboard of that calculator is covered by a mask including a resilient membrane overlain by a rigid panel having cutouts registering with keys whose function is to be preserved. The cutouts receive extension keys glued or otherwise fastened to the membrane, depression of any extension key operating the underlying original key. The functions of the operative keys can be modified, in accordance with the contemplated use, by insertion of a stored-program cassette associated with the particular mask employed.
1. A masking device for limiting the operation of a keyboard-equipped general-purpose calculator to a specific task, comprising:
a flexible solid membrane emplaceable above at least a major portion of the keyboard of said calculator;
a plurality of extension keys on said membrane positioned to register with selected calculator keys of said portion upon emplacement of said membrane on said keyboard; and
a rigid panel above said membrane positioned to overlie the entire keyboard, said panel having cutouts penetrated by said extension keys, thereby enabling manual operation of any of said selected calculator keys by depression of the corresponding extension key.
2. A device as defined in claim 1 wherein said extension keys are adhesively secured to said membrane.
3. A device as defined in claim 1 wherein said panel has a depending rim framing said membrane and fitting around said keyboard.
4. In a general-purpose calculator having a housing equipped with a keyboard and provided with a slot for stored-program cassettes establishing operating connections between the keys of said keyboard and logical circuitry within said housing, the combination therewith of a masking device emplaceable on said keyboard for giving access to selected calculator keys only, and a stored-program cassette establishing operating connections only for the calculator keys accessible through said mask; said masking device including a flexible solid membrane positioned above at least a major portion of said keyboard containing the selected calculator keys, a plurality of extension keys on said membrane registering with said selected calculator keys, and a rigid panel above said membrane overlying the entire keyboard, said panel having cutouts penetrated by said extension keys, thereby enabling manual operation of any of said selected calculator keys by depression of the corresponding extension key.
5. The combination defined in claim 4 wherein said extension keys are adhesively secured to said membrane.
6. The combination defined in claim 4 wherein said panel has a depending rim framing said membrane and fitting around said keyboard.
7. The combination defined in claim 4 wherein said keyboard has an alphabetic preprogramming section, said membrane being cut away over an area registering with said preprogramming section.
8. The combination defined in claim 4 wherein said masking device is provided with markings functionally identifying the calculator keys overlain by said extension keys.
9. The combination defined in claim 8 wherein said markings are carried partly on said extension keys and partly on said panel adjacent certain of said cutouts.
Our present invention relates to a keyboard mask for a calculator of the general-purpose type, designed to restrict its mode of operation to a specific task.
It is frequently desired to limit the accessibility of a calculator keyboard to a selected group of keys, e.g. for avoiding errors in carrying out a special program or for preventing unauthorized personnel from altering or erasing instructions and data already fed into its memory in a preprogramming operation.
Furthermore, in a calculator whose keys are not fixedly wired to its logical circuitry but are selectively connectable thereto by the insertion of a stored-program cassette, a need exists for variably labeling the operative keys in conformity with the chosen program.
The object of our present invention, accordingly, is to provide a keyboard mask whose emplacement on a general-purpose calculator will make certain keys inaccessible and which may also be used as a carrier for markings identifying the function of the accessible keys.
A keyboard mask according to our invention, designed to realize the aforestated object, comprises a resilient membrane emplaceable over at least a major portion of the associated keyboard, this membrane being overlain by a rigid panel having cutouts positioned to register with the operative keys of the calculator. In order to give access to these operative keys, we provide a number of extension keys which pass through the cutouts of the panels and are so positioned on the underlying membrane as to register with these operative keys.
According to another aspect of our invention, a masking device preferably of the aforedescribed character carries markings functionally identifying the accessible keys of the programmable calculator in accordance with a program stored in an associated cassette.
In order to minimize the chances of accidental depression -- e.g. by a denting of the panel -- of a key in a preprogramming section of the calculator keyboard, we prefer to cut away a portion of the membrane over an area registering with that preprogramming section.
The above and other features of our invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawing in which:
FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a general-purpose calculator provided with a keyboard mask according to our invention;
FIG. 2 is a face view of the keyboard mask shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the mask taken on the line III--III of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 4 diagrammatically illustrates the internal connections of the calculator.
In FIG. 1 we have shown a conventional calculator 10 of the general-purpose type equipped with a keyboard 11 carrying a multiplicity of keys 12. Certain of these keys, designated 12a, form part of a preprogramming section (resembling the alphabetic part of a typewriter keyboard) through which instructions and data can be entered in a memory 28 (FIG. 4) of the calculator for use with a variety of programs. These programs are stored in a cassette 13 inserted into a slot 14 of the calculator housing for the purpose of selectively establishing internal connections between logic circuits 29 of the calculator and the operative keys 12, i.e. those taking part in the chosen program, as schematically indicated in FIG. 4.
In accordance with our present invention, a masking device 20 (see also FIGS. 2 and 3) fitting over the keyboard 11 comprises a rigid panel 21 and a flexible membrane 22 framed by a depending rim 23 of the panel. The panel is metallic or molded from synthetic resin whereas the membrane 22 preferably consists of rubber or other elastomeric material. Panel 21 has a number of cutouts 24 penetrated by extension keys 25 which register with respective operative keys 12 on the underlying keyboard. The membrane has an essentially rectangular outline, except for a portion overlying the alphabetic preprogramming keys 12a which is cut away along a line 22a.
Extension keys 25 may be secured to membrane 22 by adhesive bonding or in any other convenient way. When depressed, they bear through the membrane upon the respective calculator keys 12 registering therewith which can therefore be actuated by the operator in conformity with adjacent labels 26 on the panel or with markings 27 appearing directly on the extension keys. Labels 26 include such abbreviation as TLP for Transmission-Level Points, MG for Master Group, SG for Supergroup, GP for Group and CH for Channel.
Panel rim 23 closely fits into a peripheral gap 15 surrounding the keyboard 11 within the housing of the calculator 10. Other means for removably securing the masking device 20 to the keyboard, e.g. magnetically or with the aid of clamps, could be used if desired.
In a set of several masking devices and associated cassettes, the panels and their cassettes may be correlated by suitable identification codes not shown.

Letter: DL City Council member takes stand against marriage amendment
I could write a letter opposing the marriage amendment for many different reasons. I believe that a constitution is an instrument to protect the rights of the populace, not to take them away. That alone would make me vote NO. I believe that to deny a right that so many of us take for granted to a group of people that are "different" than we are is discrimination, and that alone would make me vote "no".

News & Announcements
Check this page, or the News and Announcements box on the homepage, for the latest official news and announcements released by the court. You can also access archived news and announcements from this page.
The United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana announced on January 21, 2015 that it has selected New Albany attorney Van T. Willis to serve as a part-time Magistrate Judge. Full details are included in the press release below.
In various parts of the United States, including the Southern District of Indiana, citizens are being targeted by phone calls threatening them with prosecution for failure to comply with jury service in federal court. The individual calling may identify him or herself as a "Federal Agent," and the caller may or may not indicate the call is from the "Federal Warrant Service" or some other fictitious federal law enforcement agency. The caller will state that a bench or arrest warrant has been issued for failure to appear in court and then give the person the option of paying a fine to avoid arrest. Typically, the caller will ask the person to obtain a "green dot" or "blue dot" voucher or debit card.
These phone calls are fraudulent and have no connection to either the United States District Court or to the United States Marshals Service.
Neither this Court nor any other law enforcement agency will ever call someone to request the payment of a fine over the telephone for failure to appear for jury duty (nor will personal information, such as a social security number, ever be requested over the phone). Typically, jurors who miss jury duty will be contacted by the Clerk's Office and may, in certain circumstances, be ordered to appear in court before a judge. Any fine for failure to appear for jury duty will be imposed by a judge during an open session of court, and the summoned juror will be given the opportunity to explain the failure to appear before any fine would be imposed.
If anyone is contacted or has been contacted by someone requesting such payments, please do not make the payment. Instead, immediately contact the United States District Court Clerk's Office in Indianapolis at 317-229-3700, and state that you may have been a target of juror fraud.

Historical Traveler Reviews Bass Cottage Inn Bar Harbor
Wonderful stay at Bass Cottage Inn
June 2006
Our three-night stay at the Bass Cottage Inn was simply wonderful. The new owners of the Inn have done a terrific job in restoring it - it is 1st class all the way! The common areas of the house are beautiful - the woodwork, furnishings, decorating make it all very special. Each of the guest rooms has it's own special charm. The daily breakfast offerings were out of this world. It's location in the middle of Bar Harbor made it very convenient. All this, combined with competant and very friendly staff made our stay very enjoyable. Highly recommended!
Nice People; Great Location
My wife and I lucked out and found the Bass Cottage Inn. The location can't be beat and the owners are wonderful. We liked it because it had more of an "inn" type of feeling than a B&B. The breakfasts were incredible and the advice on places to eat/go was right on. We would stay here a 100 more times if we could.
Raises the bar for Maine bed and breakfasts
We had a wonderful time at this bed and breakfast located on a quiet street walking distance to the town center. Rooms were newly renovated and tastefully furnished. Maine lobster aside, their breakfast was one of the best meals we had in the town. We will definitely stay there again when we visit Bar Harbor next time
Bliss at the Bass Cottage
We've just spent three nights at the Bass Cottage during a two week trip around New England. It was without doubt the highlight of our trip. Jeff, our host, could not have been more charming or welcoming, and the inn itself was amazingly homely and comfortable.
Bass Cottage is in the heart of Bar Harbour, but hidden away from the main streets of the town. We stayed in room 3 - the largest of the rooms, since it was off-season and we had our pick of the rooms (we were the only guests for two of our three nights). The room is in the corner of the first floor (second floor if you're American) and has double aspect windows which catch the sun in the mornings. We had an enormous king bed with the comfiest pillows I've ever slept on. The room also featured a fireplace which was just the thing after a day out whale-watching. Our bathroom also had a jacuzzi bath big enough for two - again pretty handy after a 10 mile cycle around Eagle Lake!
One of the most memorable things about our stay was the amazing breakfasts - different every day, and featuring the delicious chicken-apple sausage mentioned by other reviewers. There's also a guest-pantry where you can help yourself to hot and cold drinks and cookies from the afternoon onwards. I believe that during the busier months, the innkeepers also have a wine tasting session each afternoon.
We originally planned to stay two nights, but became so comfortable at Bass Cottage that we extented our stay - we'd have happily stayed longer, but were planning to see more of New England - and anyway the inn was about to shut up for the winter.
Our thanks to Jeff (and Teri whom we didn't sadly get to meet) for a wonderful stay. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Bar Harbour - and we'll be back :)
Spent an amazing honeymoon at Bass Cottage Inn!
My husband and I spent our honeymoon here during the last week in August, and had the most wonderful time. This place is amazing, and we felt completely at home. The highlight of every day for us was breakfast, where they served a complete, three-course meal. For starters, there was always some type of baked good (muffin, pastry, etc.), followed by fresh fruit, yogurt, or something similar, and ending with a choice of either pancakes/waffles/french toast or an egg/omelette/scramble-type of entree. The breakfasts were simply out-of-this world.
We also looked forward to the evenings, when wine and hors d'oeuvres were served on the patio. Also, the 24-hour guest pantry was great - they had coffee, tea, water, soda, and baked goods available at all times.
Our room was very homey and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the whirlpool tub in the bathroom - after a long day of hiking, sightseeing, etc. it was definitely a treat. I honestly cannot think of one bad thing about our stay.
All in all, we had a fantastic time at the Bass Cottage Inn. Even though the place is a little more expensive than what we can normally afford, it is worth every penny!! We will definitely be staying here again the next time we are in Bar Harbor.
Absolute Gem
Had a business trip to Bar Harbor and decided to make it a bit of a vacation also. Could not have picked a better place to stay then the Bass Cottage.
Right in the "downtown" but far enough off the main streets to be private and quiet. Very nice rooms, the common areas of the inn are beautiful and the breakfast is outstanding.
Two VERY nice extras- a wine hour in the evening and a 24 hour "pantry" for the guests with hot and cold drinks and baked goods.
The hosts and staff are friendly and helpful.
Great place to stay
Perfect spot in a perfect place
We stayed four nights in August at this inn and thought it was wonderful. The accomadations and first class and the warmth of the the owners, Terrie and Jeff, and the entire staff makes the stay a memorable one. We woke each day witht certain excitement to see what was on tap for breakfast and were never disappointed by the options. The wine social at the end of the day is a great touch to meet fellow guests and prepare for a night on the town. Bar Harbor is one of our favorite spots anywhere and now the Bass Cottage Inn will be our "go to" spot when we visit.
I left my heart in Bar Harbor...
The absolute best place to stay with the most amazing hosts ever! Every detail was completed to perfection. The owners Teri and Jeff made my boyfriend and I feel as if we were visiting family. The house and the rooms were decorated with such class and style yet mixed with right amount of drama. The Bass Cottage Inn was the most spotless hotel/B+B that I have ever seen. It was as though we were the first people to ever stay in our room. Every detail from the scent of the room and the presentation of the delicious food to the rubber ducky in the bath tube, added to this amazing experience. The Bass Cottage Inn is the only place where we will stay while in Bar Harbor, Maine. I cannot wait to go back in the fall! Thanks Teri, Jeff and the wonderful staff!
P.S. I cannot stop thinking about the homemade bread and hummus and my breakfasts garnished with a fresh flower-Ahh!
Wonderful stay over the summer
I stayed here over the summer, and my only regret is not booking the Inn for a longer stay. The Inn keepers are wonderful people who did a beautiful job restoring the inn. Words can not describe how tastefully done, a credit to both the inn keepers and the skills trade workers.
Our stay started out with wonderful news, our room was re-booked to a family because it had adjoining doors to another room, so they bumped us up to the best suite in the Inn and didn't charge us a penny extra.
The food was out of this world, we had chicken-apple sausage one morning with our breakfast that was to die for.
Make sure you attend the cocktail hour in the evening, the appetizers were always yummy and they made sure there was plenty of wine to drink. It was also a great way to interact with the other couples staying at the inn and share adventures and get ideas of things to do.
Bar Harbor itself is a great place, I plan on going back and staying at the Bass Cottage Inn again. I have traveled all over the world and can't think of a more pleasant experience then my stay here.
Tasteful elegance
We are very hard markers but there was no doubt in our minds that this inn deserves a 10 out of 10. Our recent stay at the Bass Cottage Inn was just wonderful. The inn is elegantly furnished and tastefully decorated. We were in comfortable and welcoming surroundings made even more so by the very attentive inn-keepers and their staff. The gourmet breakfasts served in the sun filled dinning room were a delight.
Visiting Acadia National Park and staying at this inn - magnificent experience we hope to do again.

Gigabyte Radeon HD 6870 review -
VGA performance: Crysis WARHEAD (DX10)
Crysis WARHEAD
Dense jungle environments, barren ice fields, Korean soldiers and plenty of flying aliens. There's no denying that this is more of the same, except that here it's a more tightly woven experience with a little less freedom to explore.
With a top-end PC (although Warhead has supposedly benefited from an improved game engine, you'll still need a fairly beefy system) rest assured, developer Crytek has enhanced more than just the graphics engine.
Vehicles are more fun to drive, firefights are more intense and focused, and aliens do more than just float around you. More emphasis on the open-ended environments would have been welcome, but a more exciting (though shorter) campaign, a new multiplayer mode, and a whole bunch of new maps make Crysis Warhead an excellent expansion to one of last year's best shooters.
Crysis Warhead has good looks. As mentioned before, the game looks better than Crysis, and it runs better too. Our test machine, which struggled a bit to run the original at high settings, ran Warhead smoothly with the same settings. Yet as much as you may have heard about Crysis' technical prowess, you'll still be impressed when you feast your eyes on the swaying vegetation, surging water, and expressive animations. Outstanding graphics. Couldn't say more here.
Crysis Warhead then: we up the ante a little more by enabling DX10.
- Level Ambush
- Codepath DX10
- Anti-Aliasing 2x MSAA
- In game quality mode Gamer
And in the comparative performance chart, we can start to evaluate again. We are seeing very constant performance and numbers, across the board.
Just for reference, we noticed requests in our forums to asking what performance is like when we switch to Enthusiast mode settings, so here you go. 2xAA - DX10 Enthusiast quality setting enabled.
Enthusiast mode is the absolute best image quality settings that can be enabled in Crysis, originally designed for future hardware and to date, spanking even the graphics cards released this year.

Up late watching the shootout then had to be up early. Ugh.
Lots to like last night and some things to dislike. A point on the road against a top western team doesn't suck but the fact we could be looking at one point either keeping us from Montreal or Tampa in the first round or missing home ice against each look no further than last night for it.
I will say this, more and more I'm noticing Brendan Smith excelling at 4 x 4 situations. He really puts pressure on the forward defending him. I like that. I'd get him out there more in those spots. I have much respect for Jakob Silfverberg of Anaheim the way he approaches shootouts. He has a plan. Only three shots does he practice, top corner, like last night, low corner and five hole. No slapshots, no moves, no 5 minute attempts, from the same spot every time and he knows which one he's using before he skates at the puck. One wonders if certain Wings could learn from such a zen approach.
Last night was a hard miles game, tonight will be tough.
I'm not ready to anoint Silfverberg some sort of shootout wunderkind just yet. Even your best shootout performers hover around 50% over their careers. He's currently shooting at 69%. Eventually he'll regress back to the mean. A few years ago it was Wojtek Wolski who couldn't miss in the shootout.
There's a principle in physics, I don't remember the name, which states that even when you know the probability of something happening, you don't know WHEN each instance will take place. So, even if you know that good shootout performers only shoot about 50%, you don't know whether all the misses will come at the beginning, middle, end, of their careers or whether they'll be evenly dispersed.
Flip a coin a hundred times and you might start out getting 7 heads and 3 tails, but you'd be wrong to assume that the likelihood of flipping heads is 70%. And you can be sure that it will even out later.

Is the shoot dead after freeze damage?
I understand most deciduous trees put out another set of buds once damaged but what about conifers?
I'm mainly referring to Abies and Picea in which some shoots just browned or even whited out. Is that shoot dead or will it push another bud?
I don't plan to do anything I'm just curious.
Conifers confuse me whaas. The whole christmas tree effect where they stay green for awhile.
My thinking is:
If the end of the branch is alive to the point of having "green" in it to the scratch test, the bud at the end may be alive.
If the ends of all the branches turn black and dead brown then it is goners as very few conifers have the ability for "dormant" buds to sprout. Someplace on line I saw a list btw but you could find just as re or unre liable one using google yourself I suppose.
Lets see if the experts agree!
of course.. only time will tell ...
you know how to tip prune such for size restriction ...
conifers do have the ability .. when taking off the terminal end .. to reset bud on the new growth ..
you can hope such will happen with yours ...
but also.. its odds on.. that not every bud ... was a through hit as you might expect ... nor that the freeze was so deep .. that there is branch damage.. beyond some superficial tissue damage on the new growth ...
who knows.. i am just trying to be optimistic for you ... and only time will tell ...
if i were a betting man.. i would guess zone pushers [even some of the z5's] will not be happy .. but z4 and colder plants.. will cope ...
I was about to ask the same thing!
We planted a bunch of small white pine about 2 years ago. They were doing great. They unfortunately put out large, succulent candles too early. On the most exposed one, all the new candles are drooped over.
Our deciduous trees got slammed too. I've seen some of them in the past (with an early warmth, then freeze), drop their leaves and regrow new ones.
Do I just let these possibly dead candles drop off on their own? If I wait and see if they drop off on their own, and they don't, should I cut them off?
I believe that they know what they're doing, so I'm tempted to just step back and let them decide what to do.
But do severely drooped candles mean they're gonners?
I've been waiting for a freeze damage post, I'm curious also. I'm hoping for some back-budding, a second flush in June, or even a stronger push on the surviving buds? Only time will tell and I'm not in a hurry but don't have any experience with such on conifers.
Here are a few examples from my yard:
Picea abies 'Gold Drift' - the terminal bud didn't push anyhow so what's a little freeze damage...
Abies koreana 'Horstmann's Silberlocke' - so much for the bumper crop of cones...
Picea omorika 'Pendula Bruns' - an intact terminal bud!
I guess enrollment in the "weirder the better" club is up this spring.
Hmm, I was expecting someone would have had some experience with dieback similar to Dave's pics above.
Almost a week later and the majority of all deciduous plants have damage (including some stem dieback).
Anyone keeping up with how many freezes (temps 32 or lower) they've had? I've had 8 alone this month so far. I can't even tell you how many frosts there have been.
This weekend gave way to temps in the 70s so more conifers are breaking bud. Low and beyond this April witch will not give up...3 freezes forecasted this week. One of which will get close to a record. April showers aren't giving way to May flowers but April freezes bringing May damage.
The only reprieve I have is that I'm thankful that I/we haven't been subjected to tornadoes. Thoughts and prayers go to those who have been impacted.

Montgomery Ward Tiller
My father recently passed away and we are preparing for an auction. 2 neighbors have approached us about wanting to purchase the 5 hp M.W. tiller (model A103B) he had. We have no idea how old it is, what he paid for it, or what we should ask now. Both neighbors have used it and say it works like charm. It looks like it is practically new. There is one of the two parties that we would consider selling it to beforehand. Help!!!! What should we ask?
I had a 1985 model GIL 1580 J montgomery wards tiller.It had a bad gear in the gear box.I gave up on fixing it because i could'nt fine parts for it.You can buy a new one something like it at sears for about $350.00.
All parts for the tiller are available through Toro. Gilson was bought out by Lawn Boy then Toro bought them. I recently received a manual free of charge from them for a 1951 Gilson (Montgomery Wards Tiller). Got the seal kit I needed and it is running like new. All they need is the model # on the side of tiller.It is probably worth $200-$250 because of its age.

Democratic Senate hopeful Scott Howell unveils job creation plan
Brian Nicholson, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — U.S. Senate candidate Scott Howell unveiled his plan Wednesday to get the economy moving again and put Utahns back to work.
"We need fresh, new leadership with bold ideas and a new approach to get more people back to work with quality jobs and restored dignity in the lives of our Utahns," Howell said on the steps of the state Capitol. He noted that 82,000 residents are homeless and one in seven has difficulty obtaining food.
The former Democratic state senator said the greatest threat to the economy is gridlock in Washington. "When last year S&P downgraded America's credit rating for the first time in history, they blamed it on the gridlock and 'political brinksmanship,'" he said.
Howell is challenging six-term Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch.
Hatch said he's doing everything he can as a ranking member of the Senate Finance Committee to protect the economy by extending the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts for all Americans through 2013.
"The reality is that if we fail to take this action, in about five months almost every single American taxpayer will be hit with the largest tax increase in history," he said in a speech to the banking industry last month. "The fact that small-business owners will face a top marginal tax rate hike of 17 percent represents a real threat to our economic recovery and job growth."
Instead of playing political brinksmanship, he said Congress needs to act now on expiring tax policy "so that we have the time to effectively reform our tax code to get our country back on track."
"The bottom line is that when it comes to tax reform, and the looming tax increases, the economy is not going to take no for an answer," he said.
Also, Hatch said, should he become Finance Committee chairman, he would be able set a pro-growth, pro-job creation agenda and cut federal spending.
Utah, he said, will be able to show the country that lower taxes bring more jobs.
Howell, a former IBM executive, said he is offering his private sector expertise and ability to reach across the political aisle to get the economy working for Utahns.
"My experience is not creating debt but my experience is creating jobs," he said.
The key to getting the economy back on track is jump-starting job creation, attacking the deficit and capitalizing on efficiencies through technology, Howell said. His blueprint contains five things he says Congress can do immediately:
• Enhance small businesses' access to credit.
• Cut taxes for small businesses.
• End tax breaks for outsourcing jobs.
• Reform unfair trade deals.
• Invest in American infrastructure.
Howell said he also has a plan to cut the federal deficit by $2.3 trillion. It includes better utilizing technology, expiring tax cuts over $500,000, strengthening Medicare and eliminating waste and cutting discretionary spending.
