I've NEVER heard this before from the NHL.

I appreciate that the league is doing everything to save the franchise in Phoenix. Unlike the NBA who will whore and blackmail every city to keep its team. Also kudos the Phoenix fans who are averaging 14,000 per game, soon to surpass Columbus and ahead of NYI, and up nearly 3000 per game over last year. There are very few markets that would support a team on life support for 4 years and with the threat of leaving hanging over their head. It is also good to hear Bettman's support for Seattle, I think it will be a great NHL market.

Hi there, I'm Lionel Laboureur, 36 years old, french resident in Morocco, Casablanca. I have been a professional sailor around the world for almost 13 years. Designing is more than a passion for me, as i dedicate all my time for it. Weeks and weeks without sight of lands gave me the time, inspiration and creativity to refine my skills. For three years now, i decided to settle down to make of my passion a profession. I love designing everything related to print templates(Flyers, Brochure, Corporate identities ...)Apr 5th
Mi pasión es el diseño y arte con Adobe Photoshop, y aunque nunca e tomado ningún curso o estudio relacionado a diseño espero aprender de muchos artista como los que ahí en SHADOWNESSSep 5th, 2012
Artwork featured in Daily Inspiration: #1322 #1329 #1338 #1347 #1376 #1383 #1410 #1416 #1422 #1428 #1461 #1477 Well, I just love art. For commisson and collaboration work just ask or contact me here, my facebook page, deviantart, wordpress blog, or my email firstname.lastname@example.com. I am a freelancer and I will be available if I will make it work. I love raster/pixel/traditional arts before but my current focus now is vector arts. Why vector arts? Because for me vector art is a mathematical digital art not based on pixel. It means the art is resizable without losing or gaining any details and features, flexible for more shapes manipulation, quick edit for changing and limiting the numbers of colors, effects and more. My goal path: Raster -> Vector -> 3D -> Effects -> Animation -> Mixed -> Tools Development. More crazy experimental Vector Arts soon.. :D Personal Websites: http://kyouzins.deviantart.com/ http://kyouzins.wordpress.com/ https://www.facebook.com/KyouFactoryOct 16th

No son más silenciosos los espejos ni más furtiva el alba aventurera; eres, bajo la luna, esa pantera que nos es dado divisar desde lejos. Por obra indescifrable de un decreto divino, te buscamos vanamente; más remoto que el Ganges y el poniente, tuya es la soledad, tuyo el secreto. Tu lomo condesciende a la morosa caricia de mi mano. Has admitido, desde esa eternidad que ya es olvido, el amor de la mano recelosa. En otro tiempo estás. Eres el dueño de un ámbito cerrado como un sueño. poema al gato de Jorge Luis Borges - - - La verdad que Amilcar tiene razón... debo hacer mi drakkar para ser feliz... eso sí primero tengo que estar cerca del agua Aunque mientras puedo construir un carro para que lo tiren jabalíes y tal vez otro para que lo tiren gatos en la nieve.Oct 31st, 2013
I'm 27 years old and of Laotian nationality. More about me: I fell in love with art since I was a child. Art has always been my strong subject at school. Sailor moon was my first inspiration to draw manga style. I have not posted my old works yet -- perhaps another day. Secondly, Final Fantasy (VII-VIII-X-XII-XIII) was my inspiration for digital art and fantasy characters. Recently, I have been in love with photography. I have a thirst for improvement. Hobby: I spend most of my time on online forums (mostly about One Piece), read manga online, do photography, drawing, watching anime and watch Asian drama. You can also follow me at http://aki001.deviantart.com Thank you for stopping by and have a nice day!Oct 30th, 2007

Is Jesus God?
Question: Is Jesus GOD? Did he ever use one of the names of deity to refer to HIMSELF?
Answer: Your question about is Jesus God has been debated for countless years in Bible circles. The short answer is that (almost) all statements in the Old or New Testament attributed to Deity are from him!
Jesus is a member of the Godhead Who came in human form to this earth. After dying for our sins and resurrected, he took his rightful place at the right hand of God, the Father. He now possesses the same kind of existence he had before the creation of the world.
Moses, in the book of Exodus, asked Elohim what His name was so that he (Moses) could tell the children of Israel who sent him to free them (see Exodus 3:13 - 14). The response received (from the Being who became Jesus) was that his name was "I AM WHO I AM" (this translation of the Hebrew is found in the NKJV, NASB, NIV, NRSV and other Bibles). The King James Version Bible renders the phrase 'I AM THAT I AM' and Young's Literal Translation translates the Hebrew 'I AM THAT WHICH I AM.'
The Hebrew word translated as "I AM" is hayah (Strong's Concordance Number #H1961) and means "to exist" or "to have being." It can also mean, "I will be what I will be." Used in the context of Exodus 3:14 it also signifies an eternal, timeless existence. As it is used in Genesis 1 it signifies "to come into existence" when spoken by God. For example, when he said, "Let there be light" (Genesis 1:3) light appeared in the universe.
Jesus used the same name given to Moses (I AM) to refer to his OWN eternal existence. The severe action the Jews wanted to take after they heard what he had to say leaves little doubt they knew he was referring to the Being who spoke to Moses.
The Greek words translated as "I AM" in reference God in verse 58 come from the words ego (Strong's #G1473), first person in Greek, just as we use "I," and eimi (Strong's #G1510), which is a very emphatic statement of existence. In the context of this verse, it is virtually identical to the Hebrew hayah. Since Jesus was speaking either Hebrew or Aramaic, hayah was the word actually spoken by him rather than the Greek in which the New Testament was written.

Notes from the Manager
Related Strips: #808: The Neutral Zone
Sorry I was late with this one! I got it in under the Friday wire (for my time zone, anyway).
This is the first (or second?) of a short hand-drawn arc. As you can probably see, this one is less overtly a "promo" than the first one. They weren't going to all be about coming to see movies, of course: these are partly just excuses for me to do hand-drawn comics with the Multiplex gang in fun situations.
Anyway. I'm trying to get caught up to the present day, but these hand-drawn strips take a lot of time, y'know.
For the people who haven't seen Star Trek Into Darkness: rest assured, this does not spoil anything in the movie (except that there is a ship called the Vengeance, I guess, and Benedict Cumberbatch is in it at some point?)… Okay, nothing that wasn't clear in the trailer, anyway. I wrote most of this arc before I ever saw the movie.
There will not be any spoilers in the rest of the arc, and I would appreciate it if there weren't any in the comments section, either! Not even with a spoiler warning. Because come on.

Leonard Nimoy (1931–2015)
Sunday, March 1, 2015
I was never a huge Star Trek fan, exactly. I love some of the early episodes, and I think Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is one of the greatest
science fiction movies of all time. I enjoyed Star Trek III and IV, too, for what they were. I read a bunch of the DC Comics Star Trek stuff at that time, because my brother bought them. And I watched a bit of the Next Generation and then fell off the wagon. Kirk and Spock were my Star Trek, and the Star Trek 2–4 "era" was its peak for me, warts and all, because that's the "era" that really hooked me. And really, for me, it was all about Wrath of Khan.
In addition to playing Mr. Spock, of course, Leonard Nimoy did a lot of other things. He was on Mission: Impossible. He directed a few movies (Three Men and a Baby!). He was a photographer. He was the voice of Civilization IV. But one thing I really loved of his was Standby: Lights, Camera, Action, on Nickelodeon from 1982–1987, which provided a behind the scenes look at movies like Star Trek III, Return of the Jedi, 2010, and more. Nimoy hosted and occasionally interviewed guests like George Lucas. As a budding film nerd in the pre-Internet Dark Ages, behind the scenes specials like Standby: Lights, Camera, Action were hard to come by. I ate that show up.
Anyway, as you're undoubtedly aware by now, Leonard Nimoy passed away on the 27th. As cartoonists do when they're sad about these kinds of things, I drew a picture:

Depp And Paradis Go 'Overboard' At Christmas
Picture: Johnny Depp and Patti Smith Tribute to Tim Burton held at The Museum of Modern Art New York City, USA- 17.11.09
Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis always spend too much money at Christmas - because they want the festive period to be "spectacular" for their children.
The couple, who have dated since 1998, have two children - 10-year-old daughter Lily-Rose and son Jack, seven.
And the pair goes to huge lengths to make each Christmas an unforgettable experience.
Paradis says, "We kind of go overboard. I'd like to say we aren't materialistic, but, you know, all those presents around the tree, those colours, that magical sight - you want that for your kids. We do tend to want to make it... spectacular."
And the French star is still shocked at one present Depp bought for her several years ago: "It's a chain; it's not fancy jewellery, it's just a little metal heart... that used to belong to Marilyn Monroe. That's the best, materially. No question."

text: My Husband was in severe pain and after a cat scan and an ultra sound they found that his lymph node on his Right underarm was swollen and there was a clot outside the vein, 2 days later I took him to the ER because he was in terrible pain, they took ultra sound on both arms and said that clot is not in the right underam anymore but its on the left arm and it's in the vein. They gave him Warfarin tablets and anti coagulant injections but nobody has diagnosed him of anything, does anybody have an idea what he could possibly have? The scary part is the clot is travelling, what if it travels to his heart or brain. What kind of tests other than blood tests should he have? What kind of specialist should he see? (we are seeing a general practitioner at the moment, and she's been ordering just blood tests which she says its normal) She even says that my husband's condition is perplexing, I don't know what this doctor is doing to find out what's wrong with my husband. Can somebody give me any suggestions, please.

New tournament name pays tribute to Brookfield basketball coach
Emma Brauer remembers Dick Cobb as an enthusiastic coach who inspired his players not to get down in the face of adversity. Brauer, who currently stars on the Brookfield Central varsity basketball team, took Cobb's lessons to heart.
"He was always helpful," she said. "I really liked his enthusiasm."
Cobb coached players from 1998 until he died of cancer in early October. His spirited personality will be memorialized during the Dec. 8-9 annual basketball tournament hosted by the Brookfield Central Junior Lancers Basketball Club.
Club Director Steve Rossman wants the event to be a fitting tribute to the man who helped start the club and whose passion for basketball inspired players and helped fellow coaches do the same.
Rossman said that sometime between games from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Saturday the club will present a framed coach's shirt to Cobb's family - wife Carol, son Brad and daughters Cassie and Lizzy - and announce the renaming of the event as the Dick Cobb Memorial Winter Hoops Tournament.
Role model
"Dick was a giving person," Rossman said. "He was always looking to help and offer assistance and not looking for anything else. He put the kids and the club in front of himself.
"This was a man going through a lot including radiation and chemo and God knows what personal thoughts he had," he continued. "Still he was able to give back through much of that."
Carol Cobb said her husband was passionate about basketball from the time she met him.
"This is obviously a great honor for Dick and our family," she said. "He loved playing basketball and he always loved coaching. Once he was through playing, he turned his attention to helping kids."
Carol said Dick coached youth ball even before the 1998 Lancers club formation. She said he left behind a virtual library of basketball knowledge that she would be glad to pass along.
"I know that basketball will continue to be a big part of my life," she said.
Lasting inspiration
Cobb was born in Sacramento, California and grew up in Wauwatosa, where he attended Christ King Elementary and graduated from Tosa West. After attending UW-Parkside and playing golf his freshman year, he transferred to Madison, where he earned a civil engineering degree. He earned an MBA at Marquette and set off on a career that included involvement in two companies associated with engineering and commercial construction.
Ever the coach and role model, Cobb wrote a letter to his last youth basketball team that included thoughts extending beyond the court. Reminding them that each player helps make everyone else on the team a better athlete, Cobb wrote, "A player never loses but only runs out of time."
He also reminded them that "your parents are the real coaches and life is the game."
His last paragraph:
"One person, one idea, one movement can turn a team away from a losing season. It is not a question as to whether we make a difference, for we all make a difference, each of us in or own way. It is the difference we make that is important. The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of knowledge, not a lack of talent, but rather a lack of will. You can do anything you put your mind to - anything at all. That I promise."
WHAT: Dick Cobb Memorial Winter Hoops Tournament
WHEN: 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Dec. 8; 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Dec. 9
WHERE: Brookfield Central High School, 16900 Gebhardt Road

. A VERY BIG THANKS to ALL WHO VISIT MY PAGES
Time to Join the Fridge Society!
The coolest sub-culture VT club*See my Hungary Pages*
Was off on the road on a 1 month Interrail trip
some travel, some humour..lotz of pix and tipz..
so many have commented on my page, i cannot
keep up with it all. im unable to reply individually, so please
accept this humble thanks from here. also a big thanks to ALL who
commented and visited my pages!. im usually the type to respond
to a comment, or to check out a page in return, but was never on the
net long enough the last weeks to do so. so to all who rated,
visited, said hi etc, a big thankyou. i do read the
comments when possible, and i enjoyed
doing so whenever.
I remember traveling with my parents to
comepletely isolated coves and beaches on the
South coast of the the Isle Of Wight most good weather
Sundays.I spent my childhood until 16 on The Isle of Wight . CHECK OUT THE LINK
I started off traveling in 1975 with a trip
to Paris hitch hiking and with only 10 quid in my pocket,
a backpack with a thin sleeping bag in a cold
November.I had to sleep rough a few nights and
came home after a month, but the seed was sown.
Welcome to my travels . I live in Nagykáta where I have a
house and in Budapest weekdays where I rent a flat.

I joined VT in 2000 not to compete and get points
but to share my travel experiences and tips.
My daughter started school on.1st September 2005. Even that gives me a thrill just like seeing Everest for the first time or watching a total eclipse of the sun.
In Febuary 2005 I was in Krakow Poland and back home to Stockholm in Sweden.
I`m trying to write as many new pages and tips as possible as I believe better to put more effort into building than backslapping for ratings. But I do try to see as many pages from old and new VTers as possible. There never seen to be more than 300 VTers out of the 75,000+ members at one time online so I sometimes wonder what the other 99.9% are up to?
I noticed if I don`t rate other pages or leave comments then the ratings are almost static. But I I surf the VT members and rate and leave
comments then the ratings on tips flow. So just having good
pages isn`t enough...

Check out my NAGYKATA tips for some
tips on gardening...
Clara my 10 year old daughter has been with me twice to the UK and in Febuary 2005 all the way on our 4000 km journey by train and ferry. Budapest to Krakow to visit my dad who flew out from the UK to a hip replacement operation and get the rehab treatment needed. We stayed in a small 'pension' for 60 Zloty a night close to the 'Stary Renok' Square-Then after 6 nights in Krakow train to Swinouscia Port(Night train)-(Poland) Boat to Ystad (Sweden) Train to Malmo then night train to Stockholm where we relaxed at home in my flat.. The weather was real Winter blizzards in Poland and Sweden and a fierce storm delayed our return journey as all ferries were cancelled for 2 days. Then returned almost the same route via Katowice to Budapest. I love travelling by train but Budget Airlines makes this option less viable. We left 5 am on a Monday from Stockholm and arrived 5pm Tuesday in Budapest Keleti.Railway Station. Clara loves to travel and be with me in Sweden and she met some children her own age and could speak to them in their basic English.Kids don't have the same hang ups as adults, they just see them as other kids who for some reason live in another country and speak a different language.
As of September 2008 Clara moved with her mum to Brussels where she started a new school, I returned just 3 days ago from visiting her.
The population of Pest County currently lives in 14 small regions
in 184 settlements, including 31 towns.
Pest County is located in the middle part of Hungary,
surrounding the capital.
The surface of the county is diverse, it is divided into several,
clear geo-morphological units. The north-western and the northern
areas belong to the Trans-Danubian and the Northern mountains.
The larger, southern part of the county is situated on the Big Plain.
Its climate is very diverse due to its terrain.
The average rainfall in the mountains and the rolling hills is 600-800
mm, at some places it reaches 1200 mm, while it is only 500-550 mm
in the Plain. The number of sunny hours is about 1800-1900 per year in
the north-western and northern areas, and it is 2000-2200 per year
in the Plain. The annual mean temperature is 7-8 Co, and 10-11 Co
5 th Sept 2005...
17 days I have my daughter and it rains or is overcast for 15. Then last week back to work, back to Budapest and it's sunny and +26 everyday. I know that when I have my daughter this weekend and plan to go camping in the Matra Hills, the weather will change. Maybe Murphy was a Hungarian::LOL

Former WWE writer Andrew Goldstein named 3MB as the first batch of superstars that WWE should cut first during the next round of roster releases. "It's just like, you know, hire locals. Why do we have to trop these guys out? To me, they're not so entertaining. Apparently, the redhead (Heath Slater), he's very well-liked backstage," Goldstein said. "Every week, to see them get crushed by The Shield and then by Brock, and they're like the new jobbers. They're main roster guys and they have gimmicks, but they're basically …" Goldstein said before he was interrupted. Goldstein was an active member of the WWE writing team back in 2006.

East Bay Express: Who's jacking up housing prices in West Oakland?
As the tsunami of foreclosures in Oakland finally subsided over the past year, residents of the city's flatlands neighborhoods looked around at the new landscape and saw less room for themselves and people like them. Many of their neighbors were gone, of course. And many of the foreclosed homes were snapped up — not by new homeowners, but by large-scale investors, including national and global corporations.
Some of these investors have stuck to the traditional fix-and-flip business model, but others are assembling large numbers of houses to rent. Colin Weil, managing director and co-founder of Oakland-based Waypoint Homes, which owns more than 4,000 houses across the country, has told reporters that he believes the single-family-house rental business will become a $10 billion industry nationwide.
Whether flipping or renting, the new owners have put a higher — sometimes much higher — price tag on living in traditionally low-cost West and East Oakland, home to large black and Latino populations. And the investors have found eager renters and buyers streaming across the bay as housing costs in San Francisco continue to soar. The result, said Steve King, a researcher for the nonprofit Urban Strategies Council, is "wholesale neighborhood change."
The process is "transferring homes where people have lived a long time, raised families, been part of the community, to younger folks, mostly white," added Margaretta Lin, special projects director in the City of Oakland's Community and Economic Development Agency. But the city is "trying to do what we can to forestall the displacement [with new] strategies to keep people here."
Several nonprofits are partnering with the city and also launching their own programs with the goal of increasing the availability of affordable housing in Oakland. Meanwhile, the Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment (ACCE) has started a campaign to hold large-scale housing investors accountable to the community.

Natural Insight, a private retail technology company engaged in workforce management, today announced rapid "out-of-the-box" deployment of an innovative in-store task management platform that features secured in-store iPads® for employee use.
The Natural Insight solution is deployed to allow centralized oversight of in-store retail execution activity, providing improved accuracy, accountability and deeper understanding of real-time activity. The new system provides an easily accessed, touch screen communication link to workers that aids in speeding numerous in-store work processes.
By introducing iPads as the in-store communication medium operating with the proven Natural Insight platform, district managers, for example, can now have mobile access to the status of accomplished tasks across their stores; human resources can survey and provide essential employee communication; new employees can access product information and training; and management can access a dashboard view of the status of all in-store retail execution activity, including photo verification.
Stefan Midford, President and CEO of Natural Insight noted that "enabling such a comprehensive view of in-store task activity – what we call 'Execution Intelligence' – drives so many forms of efficiency supporting improved worker productivity, customer satisfaction, and overall bottom line. We have pioneered an iPad-based system that takes all the friction out of task execution processes."
The initial deployment of the iPad-equipped system was effectively introduced into dELiA*s 100-plus stores. Shelley Sadofsky, dELiA*s Director of Retail Communications, related that "rarely do we see a turnkey multi-store technology solution deployed so rapidly."
The overall demographics of in-store retail staff is often young and sometimes a first-job experience. In those instances, the Natural Insight platform provides a quick ramp in training with iPad-based access to information and learning tools, which in turn allows improved customer service levels and reduced labor costs. Some retail employees have characterized Natural Insight's ability to almost "paint by the numbers" in guiding the completion and verification of in-store tasks. One heavily-used feature is the capture and upload of photos of completed work for compliance and verification.
In addition to its fully managed and hosted solution, Natural Insight reduces the burden on IT departments by providing all staging, configuration, and on-going monitoring of the iPads. Delivering on its promise of out-of-the-box task management, Natural Insight can setup the iPads and ship them to stores fully equipped with secured mounts, instructions, and everything the store manager needs to get up-and-running. The iPads are removable for photo use in verification of completed projects and displays.
Natural Insight customers benefit from a centralized database across all stores and an ability to drill down to specific activity status that includes verification of work completed as well as outstanding tasks remaining. In addition, retailers are now equipped to provide guidance and work tasks for the day. With the Natural Insight platform, reduced emails and a reduction in project cycle time can also be productive benefits.
Deployment of secure iPads can also provide another intangible benefit in branding. Retail customers, seeing in-store staff so equipped, perceive the retailer as current, progressive and operating with the latest devices in technology.
Pioneering in-store task management has appeal across borders. Natural Insight is growing internationally with the addition of new customers in Canada and the Caribbean, sales partner CACI in the UK and the recent addition of German to the list of supported languages. All new customers cite positive user experience as a deciding factor.
About Natural Insight

Even though it's now Microservices Journal, long-time fans of SOA World Magazine can take comfort in the fact that the URL – soa.sys-con.com – remains unchanged.
