Wisconsin beats Indiana 68-56 in B10 tournament
"We made a couple comebacks this game, and did an excellent job of that," coach Tom Crean said. "But every time we made that comeback with what was working for us, we got away from it. We had some critical turnovers at key times, we had some critical second shots we gave up at key times."
Berggren finished with 11 points for the Badgers, who shot 51 percent from the field. Evans had eight rebounds, four assists, four blocked shots and a steal.
Wisconsin joins Purdue as the only schools with 12 straight victories against Indiana. The Boilermakers put together their run from Feb. 26, 1908, to Feb. 9, 1914.
"You take advantage of what you can, try to get good opportunities every time down, and try to limit their opportunities," Ryan said. "It's that constant clash. The game never changes. I've never outcoached anyone, outmaneuvered anyone, outstrategized anyone."
With open looks hard to come by on each side of the court, the Hoosiers and Badgers turned to the 3-pointer in the first half to try to make some room for their big men inside.
Watford and Remy Abell made 3-pointers on consecutive Indiana possessions to help the Hoosiers open a 20-14 lead with 9:04 remaining. Wisconsin responded with a 12-2 spurt that included 3s from Brust and Bruesewitz.
Wisconsin was 7 for 18 from long range for the game, compared to 5 for 17 for Indiana.
"The biggest story for us was we've been defending the 3 the last six, seven games at an incredibly high level, and today we didn't," Crean said. "They got some kick-out 3s and things of that nature, but we got away from what had been making us better."

Commerce Secretary Bryson takes medical leave of absence
Tuesday - 6/12/2012, 12:32am EDT
By Julia Ziegler, Federal News Radio, and The Associated Press
Commerce Secretary John Bryson is taking a medical leave of absence from the Obama Administration, following a seizure over the weekend.
In a memo issued Monday evening, Bryson stated, "I notified President Obama this evening that effective immediately I am taking a medical leave of absence so that I can focus all of my attention on resolving the health issues that arose over the weekend. During the period of my illness, I will not perform the functions and duties of my office."
Deputy Secretary Rebecca Blank is now serving as acting secretary while Bryson recovers.
Bryson, 68, was driving alone in a Lexus in San Gabriel, a community of about 40,000 northeast of Los Angeles, when he struck the rear of a vehicle that had stopped for a passing train, authorities said.
He spoke briefly with the three occupants and then hit their car again as he departed, investigators said. They followed him while calling police.
He was cited for felony hit-and-run, although he has not been charged.
Bryson then struck a second car in the nearby city of Rosemead, where he was found unconscious in his car, authorities said.
Bryson has returned to Washington after a brief hospital stay, department spokeswoman Jennifer Friedman said.
Officials said Bryson was not on state business, was driving a personal car and did not have a security detail at the time.
He took a Breathalyzer test that didn't detect any alcohol, but investigators were awaiting the results from a blood test, said Los Angeles County sheriff's Capt. Mike Parker.
Commerce officials said he was given medication to treat the seizure. Paramedics treated two people in the first collision for pain, but a couple involved in the second crash declined medical aid.
The case was being reviewed by sheriff's investigators and will likely be submitted to prosecutors in the coming days.
"In most cases, it is presented to the DA's office to make a decision," sheriff's Lt. Margarito Robles said.
Defense attorney Steve Meister said "it's difficult to assign criminal liability when someone was medically unconscious. They have to be aware what was happening."
The episode is consistent with someone who has suffered a series of epileptic seizures, said Dr. Jerome Engel Jr., a neurologist at the University of California, Los Angeles, who is not involved in Bryson's care.
After a seizure, a person is often confused, and that state of confusion can last for a while.
"You may even seem to be alert and awake, but you're not really behaving normally," Engel said.
Under California law, a doctor has to report a patient who complains of lapses of consciousness or whose epileptic seizures pose an impairment to driving. In those cases, a person can't drive unless he's been seizure-free for three months.
Bryson had been in California to deliver the commencement address Thursday at Pasadena Polytechnic School, where his four children attended. The K-12 school said he urged students to pursue their passions, to serve their country, and to value their education and friendships.
Obama swore in the former utility executive as the head of the Commerce Department in October, after easily overcoming conservatives' objections that his pro- environmental views made him unsuited for the job.
As secretary, Bryson is a member of the president's economic team and has advised on energy issues. He is the former head of Edison International, the holding company that owns Southern California Edison, and has served on boards of major corporations, including the Boeing Co. and the Walt Disney Co.
He helped oversee Edison's transformation into a leading wind and solar company and launched a plan to turn 65 million square feet of unused commercial rooftops into solar power stations with enough electricity for more than 160,000 homes.

Nine arrest warrants were issued in the wake of two separate police operations targeting suspected Islamist terrorist cells in Belgium, local media reported on Wednesday.
Prosecutors quoted by the Belga news agency said warrants were issued for all seven people who were detained on Tuesday in Antwerp — as part of a three-country sting also involving the Netherlands and Germany, where four more were held.
The suspects are alleged to have been planning a terrorist attack against an unspecified target in Belgium and to have been recruiting on behalf of a terrorist organization in Chechnya, exchanging information through the Ansar al Mujahideen internet forum.
Prosecutors also said that of around a dozen that were questioned on Tuesday in Brussels, in the context of a separate investigation over the recruitment of terrorist fighters for Iraq and Afghanistan, two were arrested.
Both sets of suspects were charged with taking part in the activities of a terrorist organization. All are due to appear before pre-trial magistrates on Friday.
Despite the developments, authorities in Belgium said the national terrorist threat alert, based on a scale from one to five, remained unchanged at two.

God is love, so He can not hate. God loves people no matter what. Jesus is/was the only perfect man, and the father was pleased with Him, but He said that BEFORE Jesus started His ministry on earth. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life>"
This is indoctrination, brain-washing, pure and simple. It isn't true because you believe it is true. It's just another confused religion which distorts the nature of god through myth and fairy tales. That there is a Great What Is, many agree, but it cannot be found through learning by rote. No one doctrine holds all truth, but to proclaim it as truth is to hook the silly and petty human emotion.
God does not hate. God is love.
If he exists and follows the rules people think he does, cuz I'm a dyke who doubts he's there.
You believe in God? You believe God hates its's creations? You think a god plays favorites?
No one hates me.
because I think he is not real
I don't see how people can say God is love.
According to the rumor God doesn't hate anyone. That includes me. Even though I have my doubts and I'm certainly not wild about some of his minions (followers).
I believe He is not hate me, I just dont know how 2 deal with Him thats all :)
He has his reasons. I know why, he knows I know to
he/she does not hate me... been there for me through every tough time in my life... I have found a silver lining, and strength and light through every storm.

BI denies illegally holding American in overstaying case
More News from Philippine Daily Inquirer
MANILA, Philippines—The Bureau of Immigration (BI) on Monday denied arbitrarily detaining an American it had arrested three years ago for overstaying his visa.
In a statement, Immigration Commissioner Ricardo David Jr. belied the claim of Walter Francis Groves that the bureau had been violating his rights since his arrest on March 23, 2010.
David said the BI could not allow Groves' deportation pending the final resolution of his estafa case in the Makati City regional trial court.
While Grove's case had been "provisionally dismissed," David said it could still be revived should the parties to the case fail to comply with the compromise agreement reached at the proceedings.
David also cited the contention of prosecutor Roberto Lao—who was assigned to the BI by Justice Secretary Leila de Lima—that under the rules the bureau had to wait two years from the date of the provisional dismissal of the case before Groves could be deported to the United States.
"But if the court would issue a clearance that there was no more pending case against him, we would waste no time and deport him immediately aboard the first available flight to the US," David said.
He also said he could not approve a bail petition filed by Grove because the deportation order against him was final.
Earlier, Grove filed a complaint against David in the Office of the President, charging that he was being continuously detained by the bureau without a trial.
David said Groves' allegation was baseless, adding that the American had been accorded due process and was given his day in court with the assistance of a lawyer.
Records showed that immigration agents arrested Groves three years ago. On May 4, 2011, the BI Board of Commissioners ordered his summary deportation for being an "undocumented, improperly documented and overstaying" foreign national.

This was my first Linda Barnes book. I enjoyed Deep Pockets, even though early on I figured out what was happening. I usually don't like first person, but this didn't annoy me here.

Carlotta Carlyle, PI and sometimes cab driver, notices someone following her throughout Harvard Square. She hides and then confronts him. He swears he wasn¿t going to hurt her. He says he was trying to work up the courage to talk to her. He wants to hire her. ¿His friend¿ is being blackmailed. He paid once and now they¿re asking for more. He finally admits that he, not his friend, had an affair with freshman student Denali Brinkman. He is a tenured Harvard Professor Wilson Chaney. If his affair is made public, it will ruin his career. He wants Carlotta to uncover the identity of his blackmailer so he can then persuade him to stop. When Carlotta starts digging, she finds Denali recently committed suicide in a fire in the boathouse at Harvard. She was a rower. She tries to interview Denali¿s roommate and an ex-boyfriend. The more she digs, the more she questions everything her client has told her. Plus she finds more pieces to investigate the deeper she gets. Plus Carlotta is dating Leon, an FBI agent she met on her last job. Carlotta isn¿t sure where this relationship is going. She doesn¿t have much time to devote to it either due to her investigation. I really like Carlotta. She is a great PI. I don¿t feel that she puts herself in dangerous situations without the proper tools like in many mysteries. This is very believable. I like the way that she is able to find out the needed information without just calling someone else to find out everything. Her roommate is a great asset as well. I also like the Boston setting for this series. The author has done a great job of creating the characters and location in the book. I highly recommend this book.Was this review helpful?

Boston area private investigator Carlotta Carlyle noticed the mark trailing her throughout Harvard Square. She pulls a magician¿s trick and accosts her tracker. He insists he was not stalking her, but instead working up the courage to consult with her in a professional capacity........................... He explains that ¿his friend¿ is being blackmailed and paying failed to end the nightmare. Tenured Harvard Professor Wilson Chaney admits he had an affair with a freshman student Denali Brinkman. Realizing that revelation of his taboo indiscretion would end his career Wilson hires Carlotta to uncover the identity of his blackmailer so he can persuade the person to stop. Though Carlotta literally (only slightly that is) and figuratively (totally) looks down at her client especially over the age of his lover, she accepts the case............................. Carlotta digs deep into the background of her client and his former teen lover. She searches for threads at the University and in Wilson¿s personal life, finding a vehicular death link. Unable to resist, Carlotta goes down the side path that this death takes her not realizing how dangerous her detour will soon prove as there is much more to this case than simply a blackmailed cheating husband.......................... In her tenth appearance, Carlotta remains an invigorating private investigator. Her latest case DEEP POCKETS is a fabulous detective story that starts rather differently, but quite exhilaratingly before turning into a suspense thriller. Carlotta deals with ethics issues throughout the tale beginning with her odious client and continuing when she chose a lane that might not be in the best interest of the professor. This six foot one former police officer still kicks butt as one of Boston¿s finest........................... Harriet KlausnerWas this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback.

They certainly gave up time and the lead by poorly executing the foiling tack itself, however, the tactical choice to cross the course is what really killed them. They may have survived being slower through the water, if they hadn't sailed a course that was both longer than arguably more exposed to head current when it mattered most.
I think the boat is just a mess right now, in the scheme of competition at this level. Very possibly due to the loss of experienced crew, but they brought that on themselves.

Although the hotel is located outside the "ring" it is very easy to walk to the main attractions. Also, the public transporation is excellent - the underground system is easy to understand; the trams not so much. Quality hotel, professional staff, decent free breakfast (not a lot of variety for an extended stay),very nice rooms and a quiet area. Plenty of good places to eat and drink nearby

Very nice hotel, but not a luxury property. The single person at the front desk was very friendly and welcoming, but there was no one else - and no one to help us with luggage up the front steps or lobby steps to the elevator. Lobby is tiny and a smoking area; breakfast was excellent. Our deluxe room was very well appointed, but very small. We were grateful that the hotel was very quiet.

Excellent staff and wonderful hotel. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Vienna and I could certainly stay in it again. Rarely would I give a hotel a rating between 9 and 10 but this hotel deserves it. The only negative aspect is the rooms are small. but they are lovely and are very similar to what is shown on the webpage. I used the wellness area and it was also very relaxing, clean and peaceful. Good location.

My stay was excellent except for a few small items. I've noticed that hotels that specify being "boutique" hotels generally have rooms which lack room for luggage. Though this Small Luxury Hotel has rooms larger than normal, it was bearable being that I was by myself. The only other items I would add to this hotel would be more english TV stations. Fox News Network and CNBC would be very nice. Great hotel in a great location.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Das Tyrol and it compared favourably versus a number of other hotels we stayed at in Austria and Italy. Our only small gripe was that the hotel has only one small 3 person lift which is a little difficult to use with luggage/goods, and with rooms being on up to the 5th floor, you really need to use the lift.

She had mentioned that she was facing death threats from militants, says friend
Once they absorbed the shock of her violent end, friends of Sushmita Banerjee, who was reportedly killed in Afghanistan by militants, started remembering the person Sushmita.
"She was vivacious, exuberant and bold," said Tamal Basu, who counted himself among her friends in the city till she left for Kabul some years ago. "Yes, I knew her closely and we connected well… She was so full of life... But she had mentioned to me that she was facing death threats from militants for writing a book on her experience in Afghanistan," said Mr. Basu.
Banerjee also came under attack for not converting to Islam upon her marriage.
Banerjee had come into the limelight after writing her trilogy documenting her experiences in Kabul after marrying an Afghan money lender. She had moved to Kabul between 1989 and 1995, to be with her husband, Jaanbaz Khan.
Her books – Kabuliwalar Bangali Bou (A Kabuliwala's Bengali Wife), Taliban, Afghan O Ami (Taliban, Afghan and I) and Ek Borno Mithya Noi (Not a Grain of Untruth) sparked widespread interest and was also made into a Hindi and film in 2003 under the name 'Escape from Taliban'.
However during her visits to the city, where she was very active socially, she would often mention how she was threatened by militants for writing on the Afghan society and the plight of women there. She escaped from Afghanistan where she worked as a health worker and reportedly also filmed the lives of women. Her husband, whose business interests lay in the city, had said how her writings might put his family in trouble back home.
Quoting police, news agencies said on Thursday that Banerjee (aged about 50) was taken outside her home in Paktika province and shot dead. Her body was dumped near a religious school.
Mr. Basu said that although she was very active socially, she was also keen to do something for the underprivileged and had wanted to start an NGO. Another friend Anamitra Chakraborty remembered here as a person full of life who dared to be different.
Literary world expresses anguish
Several prominent names of the Bengali literary world expressed deep aguish and shock over the killing of Banerjee describing her as a "courageous woman".
Author and Magsaysay award winner Mahasweta Devi said it is "very unfortunate" that such a thing could happen to an author in the 21st century.
Author Nabanita Dev Sen said she was shocked at the news and never believed that such an incident could take place.
"She had taken too much risk"
"She had written a lot of things which was unpleasant for the Taliban and by returning to the country, she had taken too much risk," Ms Sen said, adding that this was a "brave but not a wise decision."
"I am proud that as an Indian woman, Sushmita Banerjee experienced a different culture and wrote about it," she said.
Commenting on her memoirs, well-known Bengali author Sirshendu Mukhopadhya said that through her writings she had described the hardship of living in Afghanistan under Afghan laws, where women are treated as second grade citizens and domesticated animals.
"She was a courageous woman who loved her husband and devoted her life to him," Mr. Mukhopadhyay said, adding that Afghanistan remains a difficult land where none is safe.
"We have also read that Malala Yousafzai was shot at in Afghanistan and now we hear that Banerjee has been killed," he said. (Friends names have been changed on request)
Keywords: Sushmita Banerjee, Afghanistan militants, Tamal Basu, Escape From Taliban, Kabuliwalar Bangali Bou

Originally written on Mets360.com | Last updated 11/14/14
With the season rapidly and mercilessly winding down, this very well could be the last 12 games we see Scott Hairston in a Mets' uniform. For a season that has gone south with each agonizing moment begetting another one, one of the constants (specifically on offense) through all the turbulence this season has been the play of Hairston. Hairston came up big on Friday in the Mets' first win at Citi Field in what seems like a decade, as he went 2-4 with a home run and three RBI's. Then again, Hairston has come up big the whole season, as he has been a valuable asset from the start while playing mostly off the bench. Hairston now has 18 home runs on the season to go with 51 RBI's and a healthy .812 OPS. However, this may be Hairston's swan song with the Mets, as he probably does not fit into the Mets' long-term plans (he is on a one-year $1.1 million deal). Also, considering the season he is enjoying, Hairston should be in line for a nice pay raise next year and he'll likely be out of t...

We are a human rights group that, since August 2008, has sailed nine times to Gaza to break Israel's illegal stranglehold on 1.6 million Palestinian civilians. We entered Gaza successfully five times in 2008; however, we have been violently intercepted on four voyages, including Israel's MAY 31, 2010 lethal attack on our Freedom Flotilla when ten of our colleagues were killed and many more injured by Israeli commandos.
On the tenth voyage in July 2011, Greece prevented us from leaving, as Israel and the U.S. outsourced Israel's occupation of Gaza to Greece.
We sail as an expression of popular nonviolent, direct action, confronting Israel's ongoing abuses of Palestinian human and political rights and will continue to challenge Israel's illegal siege on Gaza by participating and supporting other initiatives to break the blockade of Gaza by sea.

St. Patrick's Day: 10 Fascinating Facts About This Holiday
"St. Patrick's Day is an enchanted time – a day to begin transforming winter's dreams into summer's magic." Adrienne Cook
1."Saint Patrick's Day or the Feast of Saint Patrick (Irish: Lá Fhéile Pádraig, "the Day of the Festival of Patrick") is a cultural and religious holiday celebrated annually on 17 March, the death date of the patron saint of Ireland, Saint Patrick (c. AD 385–461)."
2."St. Patrick's Day marks the Roman Catholic feast day for Ireland's patron saint, who died in the 5th century. St. Patrick (Patricius in Latin) was not born in Ireland, but in Britain."
3."St. Patrick was kidnapped at 16 and brought to Ireland. He was sold as a slave in the county of Antrim and served in bondage for six years until he escaped to Gaul, in present-day France. He later returned to his parents' home in Britain, where he had a vision that he would preach to the Irish. After 14 years of study, Patrick returned to Ireland, where he built churches and spread the Christian faith for some 30 years."
4. "St. Patrick's Day revelers wear a shamrock. Trifolium dubium, the wild-growing, three-leaf clover that some botanists consider the official shamrock, is an annual plant that germinates in the spring. According to St. Patrick's Day lore, Patrick used the three leaves of a shamrock to explain the Christian holy trinity: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit."
Happy Saint Patrick's Day! One of the joys of this day of revelry and parades is how much fun and creativity goes into celebrating this day. The parades showcase the best of Ireland and it's immigrant population around the world, and people gather to toast to Saint Paddy and drink a Guinness stout in his memory. Of course, all the celebratory zeal means the parades linger on for quite a while and many don't want it to end. In this post, the block quotes, above and below, share ten insightful facts about this special day. Take a moment to read them.
"May you live to be a hundred years, With one extra year to repent." Irish Blessing
5.One of the best known myths about this popular saint is that Patrick drove all the snakes from Ireland into the Irish Sea, where the serpents drowned. What about Leprechauns? They have nothing to do with this day and until the 19thC, these folklore characters wore red instead of green clothing.
6."Colonial New York City hosted the first official St. Patrick's Day parade in 1762, when Irish immigrants in the British colonial army marched down city streets. Dublin's St. Patrick's Day parade is little more than 75 years old."
7."In 1903, Saint Patrick's Day became an official public holiday in Ireland. Until the 1970s, St. Patrick's Day in Ireland was a minor religious holiday. A priest would acknowledge the feast day, and families would celebrate with a big meal, but that was about it." Some say that St. Patrick's Day was invented in America by Irish-Americans and the U.S. tradition of St. Patrick's Day parades, packed pubs, and green has become popular in Ireland.
One special joy I have about this day is seeing the sea of green passing by as the parade winds it's way around the city. It is always fascinating to see the different groups of Irish Immigrants, celebrities, political and social entities join in the camaraderie of the day, as the official paraders try to outpace each other in their fascinating garb and entertainment. You are always entertained and I'd add that there is never a dull moment during the parade. Above are more facts to chew on and there is more below.
More Below!
"May you always walk in sunshine.
May you never want for more.
May Irish angels rest their wings right beside your door."
–Irish Blessing
8.In the United States, it's customary to wear green on St. Patrick's Day. While the color green has been associated with Ireland since at least the 1640s, the color was long considered to be unlucky in some parts of Ireland. In the US, the green color took over in many ways; Since 1962, Chicago has been famous for dyeing the Chicago River green on St. Patrick's Day.
9."In the mid-1990s the government of the Republic of Ireland began a campaign to use Saint Patrick's Day to showcase Ireland and its culture"; with a festival as the end goal. The first Saint Patrick's Festival was held on 17 March 1996. Every St. Patrick's Day, revelers raise a pint of stout and wish their companions "Slainté!"—the Irish word, pronounced SLAN-cha, for "health." While drinking is a part of the festivities, it wasn't until the 1970s when people could drink in pubs on this day. Before, Pubs in Ireland were closed on St. Patrick's Day because it's both a cultural and a national religious holiday.
10. New York's St. Patrick's Day parade is the longest running civilian parade in the world, followed by Montreal and Dublin. The shortest St Patrick's Day parade in the world is in Dripsey, Cork. It lasts 100 yards which is the distance between the village's two pubs.
As they say, it helps to go beyond the blarney for our facts, and the fascinating information above help us get there. Have you ever attended the Saint Patrick's Day Parade? What has been your experience? I know that for those of us who join in the celebration, it is an occasion to let down our hair and enjoy the good food, drinks, and songs shared. So to everyone, Happy Saint Patrick's Day and Slainté! (To your health).

Pauline Cabrera permalink17/03/2014 11:15 pm
I made some research myself about St. Patrick's Day. I was kind of curious how this holiday started so I decided to snoop around. Well, I found out that Patrick is not Irish, but Scottish. In addition to this, I found out that Patrick is really not a catholic monk as most people think. He is actually a part of a Celtic Church who oppose catholic rule. He did not follow much of traditions enacted by the Catholic Church and he even opposes to the trinity doctrine. Anyway, great post! :)

I hope rampage is focused because Machida is gonna come back stronger after his loss to shogun
Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida on all aspects of training for his fight with Quinton Rampage Jackson at UFC 123 on Nov. 20th in Detroit.
"I don't underestimate any fighter. I think that, just as I'm prepared for anything during the fight, so are they: the stand-up game, the takedowns and the ground game. Of course we have our game plan set, our strong point is Karate and the exchanges, but if we need to use the other skills, we will do the takedowns and the ground game that I train here with Valter Broca, who's a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, graduated by De La Riva, who always help me on this area." [Tatame]
I hope rampage is focused because Machida is gonna come back stronger after his loss to shogun
finally a great technical striker V.S a GREAT technical brawler. it's SO technical someone's getting Knock the Fuc Out!!! 2:34 1 round….;/;…..& the WINNER! (Rampage)
Word! Fuk Yeah!
Lil Ninja_530yeha
Your exuberance aside it will be a technical bout mostly due to Machida's prowess, but let's not forget that Rampage has a special move that involves his penis in it's limp state, making him deadly but limp.
This is a cool video
Could have done without the grunting and groaning.
Some of the best knockouts I've seen are from Lyoto. He's a menace. Great vid, keep it up dude

May 26, 2015
An article focusing on research by James Roberts, Ph.D., The Ben H.

"Advertisers need to do a bit more research with their target market. They need to find out what these women are thinking, as related to body size," Roberts said.

On Thursday night, a pair of teams that think they are going to be contenders on the Stanley Cup odds square off in the Great White North, where the Edmonton Oilers will host the Washington Capitals in NHL betting action
Is there a team out there that is going to stop the Caps this year? They have been all over the place on both sides of the ice, now that they have the goaltender that they truly trust, they have a great opportunity to finally break the seal on the team's first Stanley Cup. As always, the Oilers are going to have to watch out for Alexander Ovechkin, who actually has only scored three goals and has four assists in seven games. That might seem like quite a bit for a normal play, but remember that Ovie has the ability to score 150 points with the right teammates around him in a season. Nicklas Backstrom already has eight assists on the season, and Jason Chimera is leading the team with four goals. Washington has already lit the lamp 30 times on the campaign, an impressive feat for a team that has played 10 games, let alone the seven that the Caps have embarked upon. And, the scariest part about this team at this point is that Tommy Vokoun probably hasn't shown his best stuff yet in net. The former Florida Panther is 6-0-0 with a shutout and a 1.80 GAA to his mark this year, and we know that he could have the Vezina Trophy in sight this year.
If the Oilers are going to become the first team to take two points away from the Caps this year, they are going to need all of their young guns to step up. Whereas Washington has built its team through big name stars, Edmonton has had to really build through the NHL Draft in recent years, and it has also made some trades that have helped out the team in the long run. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is already looking to be the top rookie this season in the entire league, as he has five goals and three helpers. Jordan Eberle was last year's top rookie on this team, and he already has seven points as well. The real reason why the Oilers are in second place in the Northwest Division this year though, is because they haven't been a total train wreck in net. Last year, they threatened to allow 300 goals on the season, something that no team should ever do. This year, Nikolai Khabibulin and Devan Dubnyk are off to great starts, as the two have only combined to allow 12 goals in seven games.
Washington Capitals @ Edmonton Oilers Pick: The NHL odds on the Capitals are starting to get a tad ridiculous, and we can't say that they have really caught up with the Oilers yet. That being said, the numbers are surely going to be right to back Edmonton in this one, and we plan on taking advantage of a nice spot here at Rexall Place.

Museum learning is a vital component of the lifelong learning process that increasingly shapes the development of twenty-first century individuals. In The Manual of Museum Learning, seasoned museum professionals offer practical advice for creating successful learning experiences in museums and related institutions, including galleries, zoos, and botanic gardens, that can attract and intrigue diverse audiences. Based on an understanding of museum learning as an experience that occurs within a personal, social, and physical context, it explores why, for whom, and how these contexts can be orchestrated in museum galleries with optimal results.
