Message: At the 11th annual Richard D. Mahoney Credit Union Charity Golf Tournament, held on June 16, 2011 at Candia Woods Golf Links, the New Hampshire Credit Union League (NHCUL) (http://www.goCU.org) announced that $150,000 had been raised for the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of New Hampshire (Make-A-Wish) for 2011. The amount raised this year surpassed the initial goal by $5,000, and was achieved through the collaboration and collective efforts of New Hampshire's 26 credit unions and a series of state-wide and local fundraising initiatives. "The task of raising more than $150,000 this year for Make-A-Wish – coupled with the 15 year fundraising total of nearly $1.5 million dollars – can be attributed to our credit unions, employees, corporate donors, and the more than 403,000 credit union members in New Hampshire who have conducted and supported fundraising initiatives throughout the year," said Michael L'Ecuyer, NHCUL Board Chairman. "This year's Richard D. Mahoney Credit Union Charity Golf Tournament raised $60,500, thanks to the 128 participants and 15 major tournament sponsors, with the remaining $90,000 raised by a series of numerous fundraising events," added L'Ecuyer. Proceeds from the NHCUL Make-A-Wish 2011Calendar Raffle contributed $18,700 to the 2011 goal, while also generating interest and support from NH Governor John H. Lynch, who hosted the October 4, 2010 calendar sales Kick-Off event at the New Hampshire State House. "The State House Kick-Off with Governor John H. Lynch was an exciting event and key to the success of our campaign. From Governor Lynch's speech and acknowledgement of the contributions made by NHCUL to Make-A-Wish, to the special gift presented by Wish Children to the Governor, it was spectacular day," added L'Ecuyer. -more- An additional $19,550 was contributed to the 2011 goal though the collaboration and success of auctions at the local and state level. The Merrimack Valley, Monadnock, and Northern chapters successfully raised more than $15,360 for Make-A-Wish with the success of their auctions. An additional $4,190 was raised at the Annual Meeting and Convention Auction. Another successful collaboration for the NHCUL in reaching its 2011 fundraising goal was the sales of Granite State Candy Dream Bars. "The NHCUL raised close to $16,000 for Make-A-Wish from selling these Dream Bars. This could not have been achieved without the support of participating credit unions as well as support from credit union members throughout the state," said L'Ecuyer. "The NHCUL was proud to partner with three of New Hampshire's favorite sports/recreational parks and raised more than $5,000 for Make-A-Wish," added L'Ecuyer. Discount ticket sales were held for Canobie Lake Park, Water Country, and Northeast Delta Dental Stadium – home of the NH Fisher Cats baseball team. "A special event at a Fisher Cats baseball game was successful in fundraising, while also providing Wish Children the opportunity to meet the players and throw out the first pitch. It was a 'win-win' for all involved," added L'Ecuyer. Julie P. Baron, CEO of the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of New Hampshire, an organization that strives to grant wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions, praised the NHCUL for their contributions. "It is the sheer joy of a wish that is the most powerful medicine of all. Our partners – the credit unions across New Hampshire – have made that possible. You have orchestrated the greatest return: a child's joyful heart," said Baron. The contributions made by NHCUL to Make-A-Wish represent the largest corporate donation to date, according to Baron. http://gocu.org/74

What are our children and teens' roles in our families? Are they just supposed to do well in school and stay out of trouble? Are they expected to do chores such as making their bed, cleaning their room, taking out the garbage and recycling, or caring for a family pet? Or are they expected to provide care for a sibling, aging grandparent, or disabled family member? Do they cook meals and clean the house for the whole family?
Families answer these questions in many different ways, depending on their culture, circumstances, beliefs, and values. Though most parents see kids having responsibility as important, they worry that they are either giving too much or too little responsibility. Or they face resistance and arguing, making it seem too complicated and not worth the effort. It just seems easier to do things yourself.
Yet research confirms the importance of kids having clear roles and responsibilities in the family. Not only do they accomplish tasks that need to be done (and that they can do well), but they also develop attitudes, skills, discipline, and mastery that can serve them well as they grow into adulthood. Setting high expectations for your child by trusting them with responsibilities is a key way to practice part of the 9 Parenting Strategies, which help parents raise successful kids.
Watch a free webinar to learn more about the 9 parenting strategies here.
Here are 5 tips to help you help your child develop a healthy sense of responsibility.
1. Expect your child to contribute. Children have contributed to their families for centuries, and they are depended on as essential contributors in many cultures and communities. Contributing to the family helps them know that they matter, and it helps prepare them for other responsibilities and routines throughout life. Though the details of their roles can be negotiated and change based on many factors, the idea that teens have an obligation to contribute to the family should become a clear, mutually beneficial expectation.
2. Make responsibilities and contributions meaningful. Kids are more likely to resist or complain about chores and responsibilities if they see them as unimportant, tedious, and boring. And, to be sure, some tasks that need to be done are tedious and boring. But there are also things that need to be done that may be more enjoyable and fit their interests or personality. Furthermore, kids can understand when tedious tasks are important to be done—particularly when everyone in the family plays a role. It also helps to sometimes rotate responsibilities (where appropriate).
3. Say thank you. Even if the responsibilities are expected, it is important to reinforce the contributions with a thank you or other appropriate recognition (even if you give an allowance). If kids go "beyond the call of duty" to help more than usual or if the they have ongoing, major roles (such as caring for a sibling after school), additional recognition may be appropriate. In doing so, you reinforce that what your child does matters and makes a difference, and you model the important value of honoring another's efforts.
4. Talk about roles and expectations in the family. A key reason for conflict between kids and parents about chores is that expectations are not clear Keep in mind that, typically, the most time-consuming tasks in families are preparing meals, cleaning the house, shopping for groceries and household goods, cleaning up after meals, and laundry.
5. Address the irritations that cause ongoing conflicts. Researchers find that chores and responsibilities are among the most common topics of everyday family conflicts. Among the most common areas of contention between parents and young teenagers are cleaning up the bedroom, helping around the house, messing up the house, and putting clothes away (Riesch et al, 2000). If these (or other) areas are constant sources of bickering, talk about them when you are not in the heat of an argument. Try to find a win-win solution, and agree about what you'll do if the solution isn't kept. Success with these "nuisance" issues can clear the air to explore more significant responsibilities.
For more ideas on how to get your kids to do chores, read these tips from our blogger, Michele Timmons.

Darrell Hazell fields questions from the media after being introduced as Purdue University's new head football coach Wednesday, December 5, 2012, at Mackey Arena. / John Terhune / Journal & Courier
Darrell Hazell
Age: 48. Born April 14, 1964.
Hometown: Cinnaminson Twp. Township, N.J.
Family: Wife, Annamarie; Sson, Kyle.
College: Muskingum College, 1986 (bachelor�s degrees in speech communication and business). Wide receiver and team captain. All-conference three years; NCAA Division III All-American as a senior.
At Kent State: Compiled a 16-9 record in two seasons at Kent State; 11-2 this year, 5-7 in 2011. Recently Named Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year this season. Kent State, currently ranked No. 25 in Associated Press poll, won the MAC East Division and will play Arkansas State in the GoDaddy .com Bowl, the school�s first bowl game in 40 years. Lost MAC title game 44-37 in double overtime to Orange Bowl-bound Northern Illinois.
Other college assistant coaching jobs: Ohio State (2004-10), Rutgers (2001-03), West Virginia (1999-2000), Army U.S. Military Academy (1997-98), Western Michigan (1995-96), Pennsylvania (1992-94), Oberlin (1989-91), Eastern Illinois (1988), Oberlin College (1986-87).
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- I was watching a Big Ten Network ad the other day. It featured the league�s football head coaches.
White faces.
All of them.
Until now.
�It�s about time,�� said Floyd Keith, the head of the Black Coaches and Administrators, talking about Purdue�s hiring of Kent State�s Darrell Hazell on Wednesday. �It�s been way too long.��
This statistic is almost as unimaginable as Kent State�s 11-2 record this year, a record forged at a program that has spent most of the past decades as a MAC doormat: Hazell is just the fourth black football head coach in the long history of the Big Ten, the first since Bobby Williams was fired at Michigan State in 2002, and the first Purdue black head coach in either football or basketball.
�Give (Purdue athletic director) Morgan Burke credit,�� Keith said. �He reached out to me very early in the process. He wanted the best man for the job, and he got him.��
At this point, the reader is thinking out loud, �Why did you have to bring race into the discussion? Aren�t we past all that?��
We are not.
We do not live in a post-racial world, as much as people wish it to be so.
Especially not in the Big Ten, where black football coaches are the rarest of breeds. The Big Ten was the first conference to hire a black head coach, Dennis Green having been hired at Northwestern in 1981. Since Williams� firing, there have been 15 head coaching changes in the Big Ten. None of the new head coaches have been black.
While other conferences were adding black head coaches, including three in the SEC, the Big Ten was stuck in a time warp.
Until now.
This is important, not simply because a black coach is getting hired, but because a black coach is getting an opportunity other black coaches haven�t received � a chance to run a program that has every chance to win.
�A lot of black coaches have gotten jobs where they had almost no chance to be successful,�� Keith said. �That�s why I�m so happy about Darrell�s hiring at Purdue. He can win at Purdue. Absolutely.��
Anthony Gonzalez, the former Colts wide receiver who�s now in school at Stanford, worked with him from 2004-06 when Hazell was Ohio State�s receivers coach.
�He is an absolutely incredible coach and person,�� Gonzalez said. �Purdue is getting one of the most honorable and diligent coaches I�ve ever been around. He has an incredible presence about him that inspires a genuine trust amongst his players, and he gets the very best out of each and every player he comes in contact with.
�He has that perfect balance between intensity and fun that most coaches struggle with, and that makes playing with him incredibly rewarding. When we were at Ohio State, we always used to talk about who would make good head coaches, and Hazell was always the very first person mentioned.��
Will his hiring inflame the masses here in West Lafayette?
Probably not, not this soon.
A lot of people don�t really know who Hazell is, except for the folks around Kent State and other coaches who have worked with him. But Joe Tiller�s hiring didn�t exactly inspire the Boiler Nation to make a beeline for the ticket office, either.
Winning excites fans.
If they win � and his short but sterling record at Kent State suggests he can win anywhere under any circumstances � the fans will once again flock to Ross-Ade Stadium.
�He took a program that was in the cellar and won 10 straight and 11 games with the same players who weren�t winning before,�� said Colts GM Ryan Grigson, who was part of Burke�s �Gang of Three�� who helped in the search. �He�s got a vision. What he did in two years there is remarkable. He was raised in a coaching and recruiting hotbed in Ohio, he�s got (New) Jersey ties. Talking to people around the country, and talking to people inside our building who have worked with him, the same buzzwords kept coming up: Leader. Intense. Intelligent. To the point. There�s no front with this guy. He means what he says.��
It�s way too early to tell what kind of team will field or what kind of style he will employ.
Tiller came to Purdue promising basketball-on-grass.
Hazell made no such promises, except to take the talent he has and mold it into a team that can compete, immediately, for the top reaches of the Big Ten. He will go to work at Purdue while continuing to coach Kent State in its bowl game.
�Here�s a program right now that�s in the middle of the pack, but I want to be at the top of the pack pretty quickly, and I think we have an opportunity,�� Hazell said. �When I took the Kent State job, people looked at me like I was crazy. They said, they haven�t won there in 40 years, why would you take that job coming from Ohio State. I bit my lip and we went to work, and that�s what we�re going to do here, and we�re going to win championships here.��
For the record, Hazell didn�t have much to say, if anything, about becoming just the fourth black football head coach in Big Ten history, or Purdue�s first.
�I got that same question my last job,�� he said. �It�s an honor. It�s an honor to be here. I love making a difference in kids� lives .?.?. But I don�t put much into that (race).��
Still, it�s a milestone, especially in a sport that has been downright Paleolithic when it comes to hiring people of color. There are now 16 black head coaches in the Football Bowl Subdivision. There were just three in 2003.
�We�re making steady progress,�� Keith said.
Yes, it�s about time.

One 'n Only Argan Oil Restorative Mask
Shay A.United StatesHairMedium BrownCurly HairFine or Thin HairIt's BadI used this product about 4 or 5 times and every time I use it it does absolutely nothing to my hair but dry it and cause tangles.

Jackie H.HairMedium BrownDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairWow What A Miracle "one 'n Only Argan Oil Restorative Mask" Is The One And OnlyIt restores vitality to very damaged hair. This is the best mask/conditioner that I have found to restore your hair. I have colored and highlighted hair and used several conditioners and shampoos for my course, natural curly hair which leaves my hair frizzy, dry and unruly. I also have thyroid issues not to mention several medications for other reasons that made my hair unhealthy. I have stripped my hair several time of colors and tried to do my hair myself which does not work for me. This is the best Mask on the market. It leaves my hair shiny, soft, unfrizzy and my natural curls are under control and pretty. I dont have to do any thing but comb my hair with a big tooth comb .I recommend this produce to everyone.posted Sep 12, 2012Link to this post
Melissa A.HairDark BrownDry HairThick or Coarse HairAmazing ConditionerI love this conditioner. I damaged my hair while using a cheap hair straightener and have been regretting my folly ever since. This conditioner makes my hair soft, smooth and shiny and seems to be improving them condition of my hair every time I use it. The only bad thing I can say is that the smell is only so-so but I just mix in some of my other conditioner that smells great to give my hair a fresh smell. I love this conditioner and I am about to need another bottle!posted Apr 16, 2012Link to this post
SbToronto, CanadaHairBlackDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairAwesome Product @ Great ValueThe "One 'n Only Argan Oil Restorative Mask" is an excellent product. It restores vitality to very damaged hair (naturally black hair, highlighted blond, and at least daily use of flat iron or hot rollers) in one treatment. And you just can't beat the price! You're paying for an excellent product, not fancy packaging.posted Apr 10, 2012Link to this post
LizHairLight BrownNormal HairOily HairDry HairCurly HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin HairThick or Coarse HairRelaxed HairSynthetic HairChemically Treated HairStrengthened My Weak Fragile Fine Hair And Gave Me Hope!This has got to be the most moisturizing hair treatment there is! After years of using ultra-pricey salon treatments to try and volumize and strengthen my neck length fine thin wavy hair I decided to try this to find what the big deal about Moroccan/ Argan oils was. This treatment has been superior to all the rest by far. Now I actually look forward to washing my hair! Thanks to this mask, One'n only Argan Oil Treatment and the Tangle Teezer brush; my hair has never been healthier. Turns out volumizing treatments were drying my hair, and the drier my hair was the more it fell out. And other oil based treatment were simply too heavy and greasy, and would clog my hair follicle making fall outs worse. This mask is way different...doesn't feel heavy or oily rather creamy, and you're going to feel the difference after your first use. I used to have really oily hair, so I just avoid the scalp when I'm applying this mask. Now because I'm no longer using drying products I have a less oilier scalp! Thanks One'n Only, because of you my hair has less split ends and is finally beginning to grow past it's breaking point. Will keep rebuying for as long as you make it :)posted Mar 16, 2012Link to this post
Christine M.NvHairNormal HairColor Treated HairTangles And Dries HairI saw reviews on other sites that said it tangled their hair but I thought it was because of the hair type. I have straight hair that was not really that bad in the need for repair. I used this product and it damaged my hair. I have asian hair and didn't think it could tangle the way it did, I can't imagine how bad it could have been if I had curly hair. I will say that I did buy the one n only oil product and it was great but this product was horrible.posted Feb 14, 2012Link to this post

GwenHairPlatinum BlondeDry HairColor Treated HairThick or Coarse HairChemically Treated HairAmazing!!!I love this product! After only one week of use I have already noticed an improvement. My hair has more moisture without that heavy feeling. It is also softer and shinier. Even my split ends seem to be looking much better. I am using this along with the shampoo and conditioner as well as the shine spray. Totally worth the investment!! I would recommend this product line to anyone with long hair that has been color treated.posted Nov 27, 2011Link to this post
Samia J.NYCHairLight BrownDry HairCurly HairGoodA very good moisturized , but nit sure it has any Argan oil. The formula has almost no Argan oil . Not sure why they advertise it and Moroccan Argan. The product is good moisturizer if you have dry hair, because it leaves the hair a bit oily.

I bought this new in the late 1990's for a 1/96 Thor Sturgeon and never used it. The Sturgeon kit is also listed for sale, make me a creative offer for the pair?
For trades, I am pretty open but I am building a 1/48 fleet boat and could use a WTC 3.5-2 or equivalent or parts to build one.
Pictures show some light corrosion on the fittings at the aft end of the WTC. Not sure where it is from as I never put it in the water.
I am not going to build the sub so I'd like to sell it - $325 shipped to any CONUS destination. Payment via PayPal. Located in the Seattle area.

HIV molecular immunology database
These are the new interactive epitope maps. These maps are implemented with SVG (scalable vector graphics), which is supported by most, but not all, major web browsers.
The static version of this page is still available.
All HIV T-Helper (Th) epitopes mapped to within a region of 18 amino acids or less are indicated on the HIV protein epitope maps. The location and HLA restriction elements of Th epitopes are indicated on protein sequences of HXB2. These maps are meant to provide the relative location of defined epitopes on a given protein, but the HXB2 sequence may not actually carry the epitope of interest, as it may vary relative to the sequence for which the epitope was defined. Epitopes with identical boundaries and HLA fields are included in the maps only once. If one laboratory determines HLA presenting molecules at the serotype level (example: A2) and another at the genotype level (example: A*0201) both will be included in the map. MHC specificities are indicative of the host species; when no MHC presenting molecule is defined, the host species is noted.

The Scatological Exclamations of Charm City
With the Jets heading into Baltimore this weekend, I think it's best we learn their vernacular via what might be the greatest TV drama of all time.
Flacco is getting hot just when the Jets come to town? Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeee………………..
Ray Rice is one of the slipperiest backs in the league? Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeee………………..
The Baltimore defense is playing really well right now? Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeee………………..
Mark Sanchez could be in for a long day? Sheeeeeeeeeeeeeee………………..
Excellent article, key point being AMac is a 3-4 that is "way, way overworked." At his best, AMac moves the puck well, blocks shots, and gives us some life on the power play. The problem is he's always on the ice, and he makes mistakes constantly, possibly due to fatigue.
I would like to see him re-sign, but going forward the Isles have to find a way to limit his minutes, at least back down to 18-20 mins/game.
Pulock is going to be a superstar...We just have to get through this year...Problem is the Islander defense will prevent the team from getting into the playoffs...
Bottom line... he is not even serviceable..he has no grit and is extremely soft... Watch the game!!! When a opportunity presents itself where he has to throw a check he won't do it...it is that simple...you constantly see forwards come into his zone and get 2nd and 3rd chances to put the shot on net...It is a glaring weakness...I am extremely surprised the coaching staff doesn't address it !!!! He is a liability every time he is on the ice... Remember the Islanders have the 2nd worst defense in the entire NHL...
Our D prospects are stacked... Pokka, Pedan, Pelech, Pulock, Reinhart, De Haan, Donovan. What we don;t have is any forward prospects other than Petrov. I'd be fine trading away Pedan, Donovanand Pelech. I think The rest are untouchable... If we can trade Vanek, Bailey, Amac and a combo of those three dmen, we should be able to replenish our forward prospects, add a #1 goalie and add an NHL Dman...
People on here are way to pessimistic in their views of AMac. He is a good 3-4 D who blocks a lot of shots and puts up points. Remember he is 27 years old which is very young for defencemen. He has 3 1/2 years of NHL experience so yes he will still make mistakes. It take 6-7 years for an average defenceman to fully develop. If we can get him resigned for a decent cap hit then yes we should do it. It will plug a hole and allow Reinhardt, Donovan, Pulock and Pokka a few more years to properly develop in top flight D-men.
Truth is MacDonald, in spite of being much maligned, can be a valuable asset to a winning team. He is a second pairing defenseman, as others have stated and is getting way too many minutes.
However, I HAVE A NOVEL IDEA!!
How bout Chucky actually pony up some dough for this thing and start to climb that ladder from the salary floor. The market paid Oduya 3.45 per year. If Snowang can lock AMac up for several years at 3 million, and ACTUALLY SIGN TOP DEFENCEMEN or defencemen that can fill a role (a guy like Macquaid on Boston), and sure up their goalie situation by paying for one, then maybe AMac can stop being the pariah and succeed in the uniform he's wearing now (well, assuming that once this team moves, they'll be wearing the same laundry).
Between Andrew MacDonald, and cal clutterbuck I think we can manage to get a second round pick and a bag of hockey tape. I've never seen someone so single visioned as clutterbuck. All the guy does is take bad shots and throw the puck through the crease, he needs to go. As for MacDonald I feel he is serviceable but not on the powerplay. He should be a 3rd line MAYBE second line d guy who kills penalties because he blocks shots. He's just not that great. But for real clutterbuck is a bad fit for this team. Who agrees??
For me the perception I am getting is the Islanders have been playing him top minutes and PP with the idea of over pumping his value come 3/5. Listening to NHL on XM and Boston saying they need a minute eating D (they were talking about Brad Stuart) it is clear there are not a lot on the trade front. The problem here is this would mean that Snow actually had a plan with an end game and you know how that goes over lol.
For anyone to say that Andrew Macdonald sucks or is terrible, is completely unfair. As several of you have posted, he has been cast into a role on this team which he really has no business in. However, if he were to play as a 3, 4, 5 defenseman I think he would be looked at as quite a serviceable defenseman. His career numbers aren't that bad.
You state that the Islanders do not pay money to their pending free agents. I submit the name Josh Bailey to you. Too much money, too many years, and earned none of it. Would it really surprise anyone if Snow locked up AMac for 7 years at $24.5m ($3.5m per year)?
Plays a lot because coach trusts him.
On a better team not always playing against the best....he would look better
If Campoli fetched a first rounder, Amac should.
I think Snow offers him 3X5
If he says no and isles are out of it, Malcolm Subban will be in Bridgeport.
I've commented several times before on my opinion of the Islander defenseman. I feel Travis Hamonic and Andy Macdonald are really 2nd pairing defenseman. Thats the problem we really don't have a legitimate #1 and #2 1st pairing defenseman. I'm hoping between Griffen Reinhart,Ryan Pulock,Ville Pokka and the Pelech kid we come away with two studs.
IMO Amac is a solid 2nd pairing dman. If he were playing 18-20 minutes a night instead of 23-25+ than you would see a lot less of his warts. Is he terrible? no. Is he great? Also no. A lot can be argued about how good he actually is but what you can't argue is he is an NHL defenseman that many teams would like to have.
Brian Rafalski came out of retirement to play in the echl. If his knees are healed he is the anchor veteran dman this team needs.
Cut this guy some slack, he's out there breaking his ass every night playing top pair minutes when clearly he is not a top pair defenseman.that being said I'll take him on my team any day at a fair price.
Whoa nelly! I don't know if I'd say that. I hope he will have a lengthy career as an Islander, but to dub him a superstar is a bit premature.
@js43 Gimme a break. Superstar. You don't know that - he was projected at the draft to be a Dan Boyle type. if he becomes Erik Karlsson, great, but with this org's track record of drafting, you'd better sin some Dmen and stop being so damn cheap.
@Julian Schubach How do you trade Vanek ? He is a great player...Remember he put up amazing numbers with a bad Buffalo team
@Julian Schubach I think you forgot our biggest remaining forward down in Bridgeport Anders Lee. Also the little guy Taylor Cammarata was rated pretty high in hockeysfuture. Petrov to me is just a big wimp. He had a chance to come to the Islanders organization and he decided to stay in Russia.
@Richard Gauthier Blocking a lot of shots means that opponents are shooting at the Islanders net all day when he's on the ice. That's bad when you have a team with bad goaltending. The point is to keep the puck away from your net (which is what the fancy stats measure- these stats show that MacDonald is awful).
Basically, when MacDonald is on the ice, the puck is in our zone the vast majority of the time. When de Haan, for example, is on the ice, the puck has been in the offensive zone/neutral zone more often, where it's pretty much impossible for the opponent to score. So let's not use blocked shots as evidence of MacDonald being good; they're actually evidence that he's played poorly.
@Zee Executioner Haha I like how you're ready to destroy Wang for not signing AMac for $3M, when someone else is sure to pay him $5M on the open market.
@Zee Executioner Signing D is usually a terrible idea. More often than not you massively overpay. Be patient we have about 7-8 good prospects on D with 2 of them being all world talents.
@Zee Executioner Wasn't AMac a Teddy Nolan Guy? Maybe if things don't work out here something can be worked out with Buffalo, but I agree put in the right role he can be a asset.
BTW he is playing 2 more minutes a game this season from what he has been averaging the past 3 seasons.
@Matt RogersI'm sorry, but I don't think you've really been watching games very closely. I will say it does help if you get to see a game in person. You can then see that Clutterbuck is all over the ice. He never stops moving and he makes other teams know he's out there. He kills penalties and can even be on the PK. I think you are underestimating him.
@rmreturns I agree with that except Reinhardt needs to play a year in the AHL to get acclimated to the pro game. He's too young to be a reliable 3-4 and wont get enough minutes to develop as a 5-6.
He can be brutally bad at times to be honest... yes, he's over used, no question about it... but he's a 5-7 guy on almost any other teams...
@Lyle Odelein I agree. He is being asked to much. Put him where he belongs and I think he would be though of much more highly by fans.
The thing is Amac has been bad not only against the other teams best players but he has been equally as bad against 2nd and 3rd line players as well. His Corsi is horrible against all level of competition. He is a 3rd pairing defenseman at best.
@jepliberty How so? Are you saying that he can't be a serviceable 2nd pair? Nobody is saying he is great. He is exposed playing so many minutes. Not saying he wouldn't make some of the mistakes he does now, but they probably would be less frequent and less costly when he plays less minutes and not against the top lines all the time.
@ny711ot Not sure if that is true but if it is you have to know that he expects there to be no market for D and expects to get a contract, which if that is the case will pump up the value for Amac - IF Viz comes back or Donovan steps up. If neither happen the will not break up the D the way they are playing and being within breathing room of the 3rd spot in the Metro.
@Zee Executioner @js43 No way. That guy is a superstar all the way. This organization has a very good draft record over the past 5 years. Most people are used to the NFL and prospects jumping into the lineup right away but thats not the case with the NHL. Signing overpriced free agents is a terrible idea in hockey. See Philly, Rangers, Wild for more details.
@js43 @Julian Schubach Yeah. I'm kind of confused at trading Bailey Vanek to "replenish" our forward prospects. Then what does that leave you on the NHL team? You don't trade Vanek unless he tells you unequivocally that he will not sign with the Isles. Otherwise, you do what you can to sign him.
5-7 is your opinion. I suspect actual NHL GM's would have a different opinion and the majority would have a higher value of him.
Ahh, Chris R is back with some great comments. The arm chair GM that wants to send half the current Islander roster to the minors.
@Richard Gauthier @Zee Executioner @js43 Although I am looking forward to seeing him along with some of the other young D, you can't label him a superstar any more than Zee can say he won't.
They need to sign a reliable defenseman. They are not going to sign Amac (nor should they for 5 million). Lubo is uncertain. Although 1 or even 2 of the young guys may be able to make next year's' team, you can't count on that. Look what happened this year. Garth was hoping Donovan would step in for Streit and that hasn't happened yet.
Get a good, solid top D man if you can and take some pressure off the young guys as the come up the ranks.
@Zee Executioner @Richard Gauthier It was attitude like that the got Mike Milbury to trade away all of our good prospects in the late 90's. Have patience. A rebuild take 8-10 years and D propets take 6-7 years to develop.
@rmreturns You're 100% right. He has the size. I would be concerned with the speed change of the WHL vs NHL / AHL
@Chris R @Don22 @Lyle Odelein You're right Chris. He has no skills whatsoever and is probably the worst Dman in the league. How he is even allowed to play in the NHL is a mystery. He must have blackmail pictures of someone.
He is horrible because when he makes a mistake it is magnified. And that is what everyone focuses on. I won't deny he makes his fair share. But he has also made some really nice plays which don't stand out as much because there isn't usually a celebrated result like a goal. You tend to not really remember the good stuff because it is usually a few blocked shots or a nice poke check on a 2 on 1 or something like that. That doesn't make him horrible.
@Timothy John The glaring mistakes only stand out when they result in a goal because the goal is something remembered. You don't remember the 3 or 4 nice poke checks. You don't remember the blocked shots. You don't remember the outlet passes that started a nice rush. You don't remember these things because it doesn't result in something celebrated like a goal. It just fades into the flow of the game.
He's not as horrible as everyone makes him out to be. He's also not a top pair either.
@Timothy JohnRight. Because he is asked to do too much. If he was able to play less minutes and not have to be there against the top all the time he would be able to keep his game simple and play within his means. He tries to do too much. If he were not relied on so much, I think it would cut down on those mistakes.

Hemorrhoids are swollen blood vessels in and around the anus and lower rectum. They stretch under pressure and are similar to varicose veins in the legs. Hemorrhoids are either internal or external.
The exact cause of hemorrhoids is unknown. The major contributing factor appears to be too much pressure on the veins in the rectum. If the pressure continues, the veins become enlarged and protrude.
Factors that increase your risk of getting hemorrhoids include:
In most cases, symptoms will go away within several days. Although many people have hemorrhoids, not all experience symptoms.
Common symptoms include:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Your anus and rectum will be examined to look for swollen blood vessels. A digital rectal exam will be done. This is done by inserting a gloved, lubricated finger into the rectum to feel for abnormalities. Sometimes, it is necessary to do the exam with the use of an endoscope that allows the rectal canal and other parts of the colon to be viewed.
Bleeding from the rectum or blood in the stool can be a symptom of other diseases involving gastrointestinal tract or colon/rectal cancer. It is important to see a doctor if you have any rectal bleeding.
Initial medical treatment of hemorrhoids is aimed at relieving symptoms. Measures to reduce symptoms include:
If these treatments do not provide relief, one of several nonsurgical procedures may be used to shrink or destroy the hemorrhoidal tissue. These procedures, which are generally performed in a doctor's office, include:
If nonsurgical procedures are not an option or fail to resolve the problem, surgery may be needed.
Hemorrhoidectomy is the permanent removal of hemorrhoids by cutting the hemorrhoidal tissue away. Some of the newest surgical treatments involve using stainless steel staples. While many surgeons favor these treatments, there is some evidence that techniques that are more traditional produce more consistent and long-lasting relief.
If you are diagnosed with hemorrhoids, follow your doctor's instructions .
The best way to prevent hemorrhoids is to keep stools soft so they pass easily. The following practices can help:
