Doing a run alng the south coast of the island is a potentially beautiful holiday if the the timing is right. Summer is short in Newfoundland - last week in July and first week in august is the time everyone seems to try to take their holidays up here to get the best chance of weather.
Fog is definitely a consideration, anytime there is a southerly component to the wind, there is a good chance of fog, dense fog. Radars are valuable devises. Invest in a pilot book for the areas you intend to travel - there are dozens of great anchorages and some deep fjords (white bear bay for example).
Watch the weather carefully gales are common.
There is a nice yacht club in conception bay -RNYC, actually two there is another in Holyrood, about ten miles further in the bay.
I think you will enjoy the trip, but you should ensure that you are prepared for the above.

Fieldsports - Fly Fishing Edition
Fieldsports Magazine is a UK based quarterly print journal featuring shooting and fishing in the UK and around the world. Once a year it also brings out a special edition focused on Fly Fishing. The new 2013 edition is now available and is a veritable feast for the eyes.
They Say
When asked what they so love about their favourite pastime, fly fishers will invariably cite the beautiful places to which the sport leads them. It has often been said that trout choose to live only in picturesque places – that also seems to be true of salmon, steelhead, bonefish, tarpon, mahseer and all of the myriad species we travel the length and breadth of the planet to pursue.
This Fieldsports guide takes us to 22 such places – destinations that fly fishers from all walks of life either dream of fishing one day, or hope to return to. Yes, each one boasts world-class fishing and a real chance of landing that fish of a lifetime, but, and perhaps more significantly, they are also environments where Mother Nature is at her breathtaking best. Whether it's the East African plains of remotest Tanzania, the endless Arctic tundra of Alaska or Russia or the tropical paradises of the Seychelles, Christmas Island or the Bahamas, anglers will find themselves surrounded by a spectacular array of life. Drawing upon a rich back catalogue of work and truly world-class photography, this guide is a celebration of the incredible places to which fly fishing takes us.
We Say
With 22 different destinations featured, this is a round the world glimpse into some of the best fly fishing the planet has to offer. Although by their own admission, a little heavy on salmonids (albeit of several varieties), there is a good range and depth from Atlantic Salmon in Iceland, Norway and Scotland, to the beautiful Golden Dorado of Bolivia and Taimen of Mongolia, plus saltwater too with Sailfish in Guatemala and giant Tarpon in Florida just a couple of tasters for you.
Each destination is nicely packaged into 3 or 4 pages typically, with lots of great photos (including plenty from the well travelled lens of Matt Harris) and fact files detailing the all important where/when/how/etc...
This will serve as a nice reference piece for the bookshelf or coffee table as well as gratifying an instant urge to browse and read.
The Fly Fishing special edition is available now both in print and digitally - you can find full details by clicking on their website here!
Price from £4.99 (Digital) to £7.99 (Print)

Sydney FC marquee man Brett Emerton is delighted to have received a recall to the Australian national team.
The former Blackburn Rovers midfielder was left out of last month's World Cup qualifier with Oman in Sydney as it clashed with the opening weekend of the A-League season in which his Sky Blues were taking on Harry Kewell's Melbourne Victory in a glamour showdown.
But Emerton has been thrown straight back in to the international fold by Socceroos boss Holger Osieck for upcoming qualifiers against the Omanis in Muscat on November 11 and Thailand in Bangkok on the 15th and he is thrilled to again be involved even if he will miss some club matches.
"It's always an honour to play for the National Team and it's nice to be back in the squad," Emerton said.
"I have always been proud to represent my country and I look forward to the two World Cup Qualifiers.
"Saying that, I've really enjoyed the four games I've played at Sydney FC and was starting to feel we were getting into a rhythm but I'll be there on Sunday when we play the Gold Coast, miss the trip to Perth and be back in time for the game against the Central Coast."

27 - Underscore Mine (Revision 557)
| Level 27 - Underscore Mine
| 2

| Hector
Underscore Mine is the twenty-seventh level in Scribblenauts Unlimited. This level takes place in a mine. Bats are plentiful in the level, as are stalagtites and stalagmites. Interestingly enough, the level has only five shards, while it holds two starites.
Right away you'll see a bird flying around. This bird wants to be protected from the toxic gas. Give it a gas mask to get the "A Bird in the Hand" shard.
Continue to the right and you'll meet Hector. He needs the mushrooms to taste better. Simply add the adjective tasty to the mushrooms to get the "Fungi Connoisseur" shard. This will also unlock Hector as a playable character.

Hi Alex! I'm new here and new to running too. Good luck!
I am new to Active.com as well. You can call me D. I'm 26 and have been running semi-consistently since this past April. I don't know if that qualifies me as experienced, lol.
Peace is to be found only within, and unless one
finds it there he will never find it at all. - Ralph W. Trine
Hi Alex and all other newbies...my best advice based on 40 years of running is after you have a reasonable base built up, push yourself. If you quit on getting over that hill without walking it will become easier and easier to quit again. If you do push yourself you will be amazed at what you can accomplish, in both the short and long term. And the mental toughness you build will extend to everything you do, not only running. Best of luck! Run a Turkey Trot tomorrow if there is one near you.

Great art
is not perfect. […] Perfectionist art does not move me.
Henry Moore 1957
Henry Moore (1898–1986) is seen today as one of the most important English sculptors of the 20th century. His early work from the 1920s and 1930s was initially controversial, as the distortions and simplifications of the human figure were seen as an attack on traditional forms of representation.
The exhibition is devoted to Paul Klee's diverse and changing relationship with his home city. It shows his work and activities as well as his relationship with school-friends and fellow-artists in his Berne years between 1890 and 1907.

NEW ORLEANS -- The political race is on for who will be elected to run the Orleans Parish Sheriff's Office and Prison.
Incumbent Sheriff Marlin Gusman officially kicked off his bid for re-election Monday night.
'Tonight I stand before you to announce the official kick-off for my reelection campaign for 2014,' Gusman said, addressing a crowd of about 300 supporters inside City Park's Pavilion of Two Sisters.
'The prison system I inherited has substandard physical facilities, scattered over several blocks, and a prison population of over 6,000 inmates,' said Gusman of OPP under his predecessor.
On Monday night Gusman eluded to challenges at POP maintaining they were 'inherited' before he took over the Sheriff's Office.
Eyewitness News Political Analyst Clancy DuBos said it's a dig at his top opponent, former Sheriff Charles Foti.
'So it's true he did inherit a lot of problems, but there will also be problems that Foti can point to that clearly happened on Gunman's watch. It's going to be a kitchen sink race. They're going to throw everything but the kitchen sink at each other,' DuBos said.
Gusman's tenure as Orleans Parish sheriff has been riddled with scandal. You may remember videos surfacing of inmates smuggling contraband into the jail like drugs and booze. Then the federally mandated consent decree is still being ironed out expecting to cost New Orleans millions of dollars.
Gusman said he expects his challengers to fixate on those issues.
'I brought it up because that's what people do. They talk about the problems. They don't like to talk about the good things you do. You do 99 good things, they only want to talk about the one bad thing,' said Gusman.
'If you're going to run against an incumbent, you have to give voters a compelling reason for change. That's the reasons his opponents will give that there are kinds of problems at the jail,' said DuBos.
When Gusman was asked about Foti being called a top contender in this race, the sheriff said he was ready.
'Whoever comes at me, we're going to knock them out,' said Gusman.
Eyewitness News reached out to representatives for Foti and Orleans Parish School Board Member Ira Thomas. Both candidates were unavailable for interviews.
Sources say Foti will likely kick off his campaign next week. Thomas is scheduled to do so on Dec. 5.

Sun Tzu's Art of War is perhaps the best known and highly regarded treatise on strategy ever written. Although its wisdom is over two thousand years old, its principles are timeless for today's boardroom battlefields. Thirteen sections present incisive strategems from assessing the foe to proper treatment of troops to espionage.
Hanshi Steve Kaufman, the widely acknowledged "Founding Father" of American Karate, translates this classic with respect for its powerful martial applications. Kaufman packs the power of the original text into straightforward prose for the benefits of all martial artists and corporate warriors.

Gears of War: Judgment - Overrun Junkyard Multiplayer Gameplay
The Junkyard is the place to do battle in this gameplay movie of Gears of War:Judgment.
by Cameron Robinson on
Did you enjoy this video?Sign In to Upvote
Most of you are either arrogant or stupid. I haven't quite figured it out. Epic adds a single game mode with a class based system and all of a sudden it's as bad as Call of Duty? Get real! Epic said they wanted an Overrun mode since Gear 2 but could never balance it, so they finally take a chance and add classes and it worked out. It's the developers decision to add and take away, and if you don't like it than don't buy the game. It's really that simple. Why can people just not grasp that?
i will pre-order from gamestop to get the exclusive hammerburst..
Great Game looks like i cant wait to play i am going to buy i love gears of war i have 1,2&3 with season pass and 2 dlcs
According to the video it is much easier to play locust, as far as I understand.
People do realize this is just one game mode and not the entire thing right? Anyways this looks interesting, reminds me of BF with class system.
I still don't know how this isn't a DLC for Gears 3. So far, I'm not impressed to pay 60 franks.
Don't know how people are going to feel about not having the option to switch to shotty in close quarters. Gameplay looks good though.
Gears of Duty ... releasing the same game every couple of year ...! Clearly M$ Don't give flying fuck about one of their best franchise. Even the real developers of this game left. They making it so much until people eventually get tired of it, and hate it! look what's happening to Call of duty.
@skullomania2 You MUST be clueless. This is the Overrun mode from the new Gears game.
@Aria1368 Agreed, and no kidding, it's the same gameplay, the same graphics, just a different story. And that's the story. Also, the Multiplayer is the same and very weak, compared to other shooters. Gears 1 & 2 were great, but then it started to get old...really quick.
I don't think you know what you're talking about. The multiplayer is not even remotely similar to any of the other Gears. Don't get me wrong, I think they made the game worse and more like a third-person CoD than another Gears, but to say they are the same is ridiculous.

Fire incidents during New Year revelry in Metro Manila fewer by 50% this year
More News from Jamie Marie Elona
MANILA, Philippines—The total number of fire incidents recorded in Metro Manila during the New Year revelry went down by almost half compared with that of last year, the National Capital Region Bureau of Fire Protection said Tuesday.
In a press conference, BFP-NCR director, Chief Superintendent Santiago Laguna said 12 fire incidents transpired in Metro Manila from Dec. 31, 2012, to Jan. 1, 2013—a nearly 50 percent decrease from last year's total of 21 during the same period.
Among the 12 fire calls, only two were said to have been caused by firecrackers—likewise lower than last year's four firecracker-related fire incidents.
The amount of damage also went down from P10 million last year to P3.8 million this year, and no one was reportedly killed from the fire incidents, except for one firefighter from Caloocan who sustained a minor laceration to his right cheek.
Among the incidents, the highest level recorded was the fifth alarm declared over the fire at the Amado V. Hernandez Elementary School in Barangay (village) Magsaysay, Herbosa, in Tondo, Manila, which started at 9:39 p.m.
Initial investigation showed that the blaze started at the second floor of the two-story building, particularly at the property custodian's office. The cause of fire is yet to be determined.
"I commend all the firefighters of NCR who performed their sworn duty of ensuring that everyone in the neighborhood is safe from the hazards of fire brought by these firecrackers," Lagun said.
BFP-NCR has been relentless in their fire-safety advocacy campaign in Metro Manila as early as mid-November.
The BFP also said that they would pursue the move to totally ban firecrackers.

Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Low beams on 2015 Tahoe LS are less than desirable. Headlights provide insufficient (or no) illumination when making slow speed turns to L or R. Problem is increased due to large blind spot created by windshield post and side view mirrors. Should explore 'cornering light' application. Also, use of low beams as DRLs means low beams (projectors) are 'on' all the time. LED 'strips' that illuminate when low beams on would be adequate for DRLs and would add life to low beams.

Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this
This is my 3rd new Tahoe and the worst. To improve gas mileage Chevy has included a design defect in the motor which causes a drone/rumble and steering wheel vibration in V4 mode. I complained to the dealership, customer relations and the Zone Manager about the problem and the only answer I get is "its operating as designed". Every time we drive it we are reminded that we bought a lemon by the vibration and rumble in V4 that sounds like bees circling around my head.
Make no mistake, this is a common problem not only in the Tahoe but also the Silverado, Suburban and Camaros. The only way to get rid of it according to the forums I've participated in is to have a tune done that eliminates the V4 mode but this voids the warranty. So I'm stuck with a clunker that I can't wait to get rid of when I get another pile of cash. LOL
This is my fifth Tahoe and is the best to date. I have a LT with the Luxury and Sun & Entertainment packages. My only recommendation is to offer cooled seats on the LT.
Currently, you can only get the cooled seats with the LTZ. The vehicle is totally overhauled from the previous generation. It handles and rides very smoothly. There is a long list of technology options included for 2015.
I highly recommend this vehicle.
We bought a 2015 Chevy Tahoe LTZ about a month ago. I cannot be more pleased with the smooth ride and sleek design. I appreciate the fact that this is an American made vehicle that bucks the trend of the boring utilitarian look we have grown accustomed to. For too long the imports have flaunted the most stylish SUVs. The new Tahoe is both impressive to look at and to drive. Here is to the homegrown class and sophistication Chevy has offered to it's design starved American customers!
I just acquired my 4th Chevy Tahoe (i.e., 1996, 2003, 2007 and now, 2015). I bought the LTZ model (highest trim level) with the Sun Entertainment package (i.e., sunroof and rear seat entertainment system) and active cruise control, and the price retailed for around $68,500.00. I did, however, manage to negotiate it down to $62,500.00, including destination charges. My wife has a Range Rove HSE Sport), which costs a good bit more than my Tahoe. Although I have my biases, in my opinion, the Tahoe blows away the Range Rover or any other luxury SUV for that matter when you compare the features and quality against the price you pay. The exterior looks aggressive, yet stylish, while the interior compares well to almost any luxury car I have sat in, including Mercedes Benz and BMW—especially with the captain's chairs in the second row of seats. It drives and handles like a luxury sedan (e.g., 0-60 in about 7.0 seconds)—not a truck, and boasts a tighter turning radius than my last Tahoe. I love the safety features and the electronics, including the connectivity (USB ports all over the interior), and my son loves the BluRay DVD which he can control with a separate remote control. Don't worry parents, he can watch and listen to a movie through the wireless headphones while you listen to your own music in the front. The designers have carefully thought out almost every detail, big and small, so I think those looking for a full sized luxury SUV without paying for a MB or Range Rover should seriously consider this vehicle. You would not be "settling" by any means. Those who complain about gas mileage, though improved slightly over my 2007, do not belong in a Tahoe (or Suburban).

thanks so much for "A Song After Sundown." I love that piece, and the "peace" behind it. I studied with David sometime ago at UCLA with another young talent by the name Jake Heggie, who I couldn't stand - but was a darling to the department, and especially Johanna Harris. David actually wrote me a letter of recommendation for law school for me.. Never went. and the rest is history!

Ending the soap opera that overshadowed last season for the Los Angeles Dodgers, a group of investors, including basketball hall of famer Magic Johnson, won a bankruptcy action for the Los Angeles Dodgers with a bid of $2.15 billion.
The deal will be formally presented to judge Kevin Gross for a bankruptcy law review and final approval next month. Last year, owner Frank McCourt filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, throwing the team into turmoil.
While Johnson is expected to serve as an ownership spokesman who will use his special connection to the Los Angeles market, the other partners are also notable. The controlling partner in the bid is Mark Walter, who currently serves as the head of the Guggenheim Partners investment firm, which is based in New York and Chicago. The president of Guggenheim, Todd Boehly, is also involved in the deal.

Steel prices are likely to see an increase of nearly Rs 500-1,000 per tonne next month on account of a 6.5% increase in railway freight rate.
"The 6.5% rise in railway freight rate means around Rs 65-80 per tonne increase in iron ore transportation cost, which would mean Rs 160 per tonne rise in steel production cost. The freight hike will have to be passed on otherwise it will impact our bottomline," said a senior official handling raw materials at a leading steel maker.
Commenting on rail freight increase, Dilip Oommen, CEO & MD, Essar Steel, said, "While increasing railway freight is necessary in the long-term interest of Railways, it will have impact on the transportation cost of raw materials and finished steel products. There is bound to be a cost push for the customers." He, however, declined to describe the extent of increase in steel price.
On Friday, the railway minister Sadananda Gowda announced a 6.5% hike in rail freight rate along with a 14.2% hike in long distance passenger fares.
Steel industry is already reeling under higher iron ore prices following shortage of the key raw material in the country. Iron ore continue to remain in short supply following mining bans in Odisha and Goa. Supply of ore from Karnataka has also not improved significantly after mining was allowed by the apex court in April as the environmental clearance are slow.
"Long steel manufacturers would be able to pass on the freight hike, however flat steel producers may not be able to do so as prices of these products are internationally linked," Giriraj Daga, senior analyst with Nirmal Bang Securities, said.
C P Baid, deputy managing director of Monnet Ispat, said that passing the hike to consumer is not a prerogative as flat steel prices get decided on the basis on international prices.
"Even if price hike is considered, imports of these products would increase as prices are not as high in international market. It is, however, definitely negative for already struggling steel industry," he said.
Steel demand is generally at its peak till May after which it subsides due to onset of monsoon. Thus, many industry participant argued that there may not be much room for hiking the price.
"No one in domestic market is in mood to consider price hike. The production cost of steel is likely to go up by Rs 500/tonne following the freight hike. Our margins will be impacted as we would not be able to pass on the freight hike. Plus, railway freight hikes are often followed by increase in road transportation cost, so total transport cost will go up," R K Goyal managing director Kalyani Steels, said.
If steel companies are not able to pass on the freight hike then there could be a negative impact on their operating profits. In case of Tata Steel it would be 2-3%, for JSW Steel 5-6% and for Steel Authority of India, it would be 8-10%, Daga said.
In the case of long products, leading steelmakers have taken a three consecutive hike adding up to Rs 1,500 per tonne in past 45 days, a leading distributor of long steel product in Mumbai said.
"Railway freight hike is generally passed on, and hence a hike Rs 500 per tonne could be expected in July," he added.
Prakash Duvvuri, head of research at OreTeam, said added cost of moving iron ore may not be much. "Assumption being that the current iron ore prices have swelled up, and we are waiting for a correction.
Basically, the correction would offset the freight hike. Moreover, the busy season surcharge is going to end on June 30. Hence, it is very much possible the current hike wouldn't bite much for all those buying iron ore by rail.
In fact, if the iron ore situation comes back to normal then there still could be room for a minor correction. Also, not to forget the monsoons have started, so room for further hike in costs related to iron ore would not be entertained."

I love the outdoors participating in activities like jogging, bike riding, parks, basketball, softball, flag football, fishing, skiing and white water rafting, but not camping that is a little too dangerous for me I'm adventurous but not that adventurous. (Lol) I love to work out and stay in shape by exercising about two to three times a week I only get one body so I plan on taking care of it until the lord decide to take it away from me. In my spare time I like to participate in activities such as bowling, swimming, concerts, comedy show, spoken word, live bands, playing pool, scrabble, live sporting events, dinners, movies, traveling and many other activities.

I'm a religious person that loves my lord because he has been good to me so I do my best to return the favor by being the best individual I can be. I am not a perfect person I have flaws and weaknesses just like everyone else but I strive hard to correct them and going to continue to do so until I am happy with the results. I work a lot I own a company that does work threw out the North and South Carolina; I have been blessed to be my own boss and hope that can continue for the rest of my life. Even though I work a lot I set my on schedule so I will make sure that I will always make time for that special someone.

Independent filmmaker: 1960s and '70s
Independent producer Stanley Kramer then signed Cassavetes to direct A Child Is Waiting (1963), an earnest drama written by Abby Mann. Burt Lancaster played a psychologist and Judy Garland a new teacher who disagree in their approaches to working with developmentally challenged children. After Kramer took the film out of Cassavetes' hands and reedited it as a sentimental "social problem" film, Cassavetes broke with Hollywood to pursue filmmaking his own way. He was determined to make motion pictures grounded in character development that would depict real-life situations with real-world consequences. He also was committed to involving the cast and crew in an organic improvisatory process. No matter how dark his subject matter, he was also not beyond punctuating the proceedings with humour.
Faces, which Cassavetes wrote in 1965 and shot in black and white in 1966, starred John Marley and Lynn Carlin as a husband and wife facing a split after 14 years of marriage. Both have one-night stands, the husband with a prostitute (played by Cassavetes' wife, Gena Rowlands) and the wife with a hippie (Seymour Cassel). Originally six hours long, the film was painstakingly edited down over the next two years to slightly more than two hours and released in 1968 to rave reviews. Cassavetes received an Academy Award nomination for his screenplay, and Carlin and Cassel were nominated as best supporting actors. Cassavetes had helped finance Faces by acting in films such as Robert Aldrich's World War II drama The Dirty Dozen (1967), for which he was nominated for an Academy Award as best supporting actor, and Roman Polanski's Rosemary's Baby (1968).
As a director, Cassavetes was a master at dramatizing marital problems. For Husbands (1970), his first colour 35-mm effort, he assembled his first high-profile cast. Peter Falk, Ben Gazzara, and Cassavetes himself portrayed a triumvirate of suburban husbands who, shocked by the sudden death of a friend, treat themselves to a spree of boozing, basketball, and sex that includes a quick trip to London. Husbands was dismissed by influential critic Pauline Kael as "agonizingly banal," but other critics likened it to the work of Ingmar Bergman and found moments of uncommon power in the mostly improvised interaction between the principals.
The modest commercial success of Husbands helped Cassavetes secure a deal with Universal to make Minnie and Moskowitz (1971). More hopeful and romantic than any of his other films, Minnie and Moskowitz was Cassavetes' version of a screwball comedy. Cassel played a slightly demented parking-lot attendant with a crush on a museum curator (Rowlands), who is trying to pull herself together after being dumped by her married lover (Cassavetes).
After this lighter fare, Cassavetes returned to psychodrama with A Woman Under the Influence (1974), a harrowing, unrelievedly raw portrait of a Los Angeles housewife's nervous breakdown. Although the story was originally intended as a stage vehicle for Rowlands, it was brought to the screen instead by Cassavetes' newly formed Faces International production company. Falk was appropriately detestable as the brutish husband, and Rowlands's majestic portrayal of the tortured woman at the centre of the film earned an Academy Award nomination for best actress. Despite some critics' judgment that Cassavetes had dissipated the power of the performances by letting some scenes go on too long, A Woman Under the Influence was still his biggest hit up to that point. Moreover, it earned Cassavetes his only Academy Award nomination for best director. It seemed as if Cassavetes had beaten the system: he was making deeply personal movies entirely on his own terms and still winning the admiration of the industry on which he had turned his back.
Cassavetes was less sure-footed when he ventured into genre filmmaking with the crime drama The Killing of a Chinese Bookie (1976), in which Gazzara played the debt-ridden owner of a strip joint forced by the mob to commit a murder. The ambitious Opening Night (1977) also had its problems, including one that often plagued Cassavetes' films, the perception of excessive length. Nevertheless, Rowlands again excelled as a stage actress suffering an existential crisis after a fan dies on the opening night of her new play. Cassavetes the actor (every bit the equal of Cassavetes the director) also gave a notably strong performance, as did veteran character actress Joan Blondell.
Gloria (1980), made for Columbia rather than Faces International, featured yet another superb effort by Rowlands as a former prostitute who goes on the lam with an eight-year-old boy after his family is killed by the mobsters who employed his dad as an accountant. In between killings the film offers plenty of Cassavetes' distinctive humour. Though the narrative was more loosely structured than that of the standard crime drama, Gloria remained one of Cassavetes' most accessible films.
Cassavetes' most significant turns as an actor in the late 1970s came in Elaine May's Mikey and Nicky (1976) and Brian De Palma's The Fury (1978). In 1982 he and Rowlands played the leads in Paul Mazursky's 1982 Tempest, the first time they had acted together in a picture not directed by Cassavetes. They then starred together in Cassavetes' moving and unusual love story Love Streams (1984) as a brother and sister who lead wildly differing lifestyles but who care deeply about each other.
Cassavetes' final project was the little-seen mainstream comedy Big Trouble (1985), in which Alan Arkin starred as an insurance salesman who becomes involved in a scheme to fake the death of another man (Falk). It provided an unfortunate and premature end to Cassavetes' adventurous filmmaking career. He died of cirrhosis of the liver at age 59.

A laptop distribution effort in Peru may not have led to the anticipated uptick in students' academic achievement, according to a recent study.

Researchers also found that students were more likely to use the devices to play games and listen to music.

Arizona Coyotes
Connor Murphy scores in NHL debut for Phoenix Coyotes
Covering sports allows us writers to see some pretty spectacular moments: A game-winning home run, a last-second touchdown, the three-pointer that turned the tide of the game.
Or a 20-year-old defenseman's first career National Hockey League goal in his first career NHL game.
At 17:05 of the second period Saturday against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Phoenix Coyotes defenseman Connor Murphy lined up a pass from Radim Vrbata and powered home a shot past backup goaltender Anders Lindback.
"I think it was a nice play by [Vrbata] and [Martin Hanzal] first of all," he said after the Coyotes' 6-3 win. "They both made nice plays ... Hanzal was standing in front of the net and Vrby found me. I decided to hit the side of the net because the goalie was deep in his crease. I got lucky it went through."
Answered like a true NHL veteran.
"I think I almost broke my hand punching the ice I was so excited," Murphy added, with a huge grin on his face.
But Murphy wasn't the only one excited to see him score his first goal. Murphy was immediately congratulated by fellow Bostonian Keith Yandle and head coach Dave Tippett didn't leave him out of his post-game press conference.
"He's such a nice kid. He's a great kid," Tippett said. "It's a big thrill for him.
"He's a real mature kid. He's more mature than he looks, let's put it that way. He looks young. He's played really well down [in the AHL] and he got an opportunity to play against a very good team and he played well."
