Just looking for someone to be happy with
My name is Jeremy. I live in a small town so I thought I'd check this out and see if it could offer more possibilities for meeting someone. I sandblast and paint water towers for a living. I love hunting!!!! I like fishing, playing pool, softball, and golf. I also enjoy bowling, playing cards, and board games among other things. I like watching movies. I'm looking for someone who accepts the fact that I'm not perfect and loves me anyways. I love kids and would love to be a dad. I'm looking for a serious relationship. A relationship where we can be best friends and always be honest with one another about everything no matter what it may be. I don't know what else to say about myself but I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have.
Camping , Dining out , Fishing/Hunting , Movies/Videos , Playing cards , Playing sports , Travel/Sightseeing
Baseball, Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Golf, Hockey, Martial arts, Swimming, VolleyBall, Walking / Hiking
I don't exercise regularly.
Don't display my sign
I like Dogs, Horses
Some other viewpoint
I don't know that I really have what would be considered a "Hot Spot"?
I like music and watching movies. "How I Met Your Mother", "Justified" and "Burn Notice" are my favorite TV shows. You can't go wrong with action and comedy. I mean who doesn't like to laugh? I like playing and watching sports. My family and friends.
I enjoy hunting and fishing. I like playing pool, softball, and golf. I like going bowling. I also enjoy swimming and scuba diving. I enjoy getting together with friends and family going camping, cooking out, and just spending time with loved ones.
A hunting magazine. lol I'm not much of a reader. For me personally reading is boring. If I want to relax then I'd rather snuggle up on the couch and watch a movie.

Best Boston so far
By Tyler
from Outer Banks, NC
Best Uses
I was lucky enough to get these at the Boston expo in April. Actually considered running Boston in them cause they felt so good on an easy run two days before the marathon but I opted to play it safe and run in the Boston 3. I've had the adizero Boston 1, 3, 4, and now these. These are my favorite with the 3 in second. The upper is much improved from the Boston 4. The boost material is simply great, it works. Doesn't feel too soft. The shoe feels lighter than previous Boston's but no sacrifice in performance. This is my go to shoe for racing halfs and fulls, tempo runs, and marathon pace long runs. If you want a little more cushioning than the adios for racing then this is the shoe for you.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Best Shoe I Have Ever Owned!
By Speed Demon
from Atlanta, Georgia
I am a cross country runner. I previously wore the Mizuno Elixer 8 which to my dissappointment was discontinued. After much searching to find the Elixar's sister shoe, I could not find one until this shoe!! This is the Elixer 8's sister shoe! Already, I can say I almost like this shoe more than the elixar! Great purchase!

An Introduction to Mirages
This is multi-linked website that constitutes serious scientific tutorial regarding the optics of atmospheric mirages. The site contains extensive material, references and links to other sites. These include photographic examples of much of the phenomena as well useful simulations illustrating many of the types of mirages. The site originated as an explanation of "green flashes" and therefore pays particular attention to that phenomena.

Retailer fans Bluetooth iPod rumorsA UK retailer in contact with Stuff Magazine has thrown its weight behind recent wireless iPod rumors, saying Apple Computer is adding the finishing touches to a new iPod with Bluetooth capabilities.
\"Rumours of a iPod with the wireless tech built-in reached fever pitch in February 2005, but it looks like the jukebox is finally ready to appear in the Apple store, along with a deluge of accessories\" the report says. It does not identify the retailer which made the comments, but it is true that Apple sometimes offers privileged information to some of its largest resellers ahead of major product launches.
Recently, American Technology Research analyst Shaw Wu sent a research note to clients, in which he said \"a new widescreen vPod with Bluetooth headphones could be ready as early as the June quarter.\" Apple began its June quarter earlier this month. It runs three months through June.
Still, analyst reports are not the only sign that iPod refreshes may be on the way.
Two weeks ago an overseas publication reported that Quanta Computer had won a contract from Apple to manufacture new \"video iPod devices.\" The publication, which did not cite sources, said Quanta would begin delivering the iPods this month.
And just last week, a couple of big-box retailers, including Amazon.com, began selling all of the company\'s iPod digital music players at costs below Apple\'s suggested retail price.
In the same research note, Wu further stated that slowing iPod nano sales may force the company to release refreshed nanos as well, likely with increased storage capacities.
Of interest, the Stuff Magazine article also makes references to this Apple patent filing that appears to show the company is also working on a Bluetooth picture frame.
Rumors of a wireless Apple picture frame have swirled amongst insiders ever since it was reported that Apple planned to extend its foray into the consumer electronics market. One insider has referred to the project by the code-name \"lunchbox,\" but at the time offered few other details.
On Topic: General
- This week on AppleInsider: Apple Music, Beats 1, new iPods, car plans & more

The chapel at Laurel House was invariably cold, and even though the calendar told her it was the first day of August, the young governess sitting with her charges was thankful she had chosen to wear her old-fashioned stuff gown with its long sleeves. The family employed no resident chaplain, and Mr Seymor read a long and, thought Miss Hetton, very apt passage from the Bible concerning the trials of Job, followed by the customary prayers, during which the children shuffled and squirmed uncomfortably, eager to return to the nursery-wing where breakfast awaited them.
At last their ordeal was over. Mr and Mrs Seymor made their stately way out of the chapel, followed by Miss Hetton. The young lady would have preferred to take breakfast with her charges in the relaxed atmosphere of the nursery, but it was Mrs Seymor's firm belief that a mother should take a keen interest in her offspring's education. To this end she insisted that the young governess should attend her at breakfast every morning in order that she might be informed of her children's progress and issue any new directives that occurred to her. Having thus performed her duty, the good lady then banished her children from her mind until they were brought down to the drawing-room to enjoy half an hour of their parents' time before retiring to bed.
That particular morning, Miss Hetton discovered that her employer was in a highly critical mood. After routine enquiries into the children's education, she launched her attack.
"Thomas and Sebastion were very restless during prayers today," she began, applying butter to a piece of bread with mathematical precision. "You do not seem to have them properly under yourcontrol."
"I will see to it that they behave better tomorrow, ma'am."
"I do not believe you are severe enough with them, or any of the children. I have more than once heard Matilda address you in a most unseemly way."
"I encourage them to look upon me as a friend as well as a teacher."
Mrs Seymor looked at her in surprise.
"My dear young woman you cannot know what you are saying. A governess can never be a friend to her charges. Why, it is a sure way to disaster. You allow them too much freedom, with the result that before long they will pay you no heed at all! I cannot condone it. Mr Seymor, pray tell Miss Hetton that such dangerous ideas must not be practised in this house."
The master of the house looked up from his news-sheet.
"Eh, what's that? Oh, quite, m'dear. Not to be thought of," he said, burying himself once more in his paper.
Realizing that argument would be futile, Miss Hetton wisely remained silent.
"Of course you are very young," conceded Mrs Seymor, "but you have been with us for nearly two years, now, and should be well acquainted with the manner of things here. Another thing, Josephine has developed a perpetual sniff. It must be stopped at once."
"She has been suffering from a cold recently, ma'am, but I shall of course attend to it."
"And you will make it plain to them, Miss Hetton, that I will not tolerate giggling during prayers."
Miss Hetton was aware that the stifled laugh had come not from her charges but from the young maids in the servants' benches, but she had no wish to expose them to their mistress's wrath and she let the matter rest.
A footman entered with the morning's mail upon a silver tray, which he held out to his master. Mr Seymor reluctantly abandoned his paper and sorted through the letters.
"What's this?" He held up a letter, his brows raised in surprise. "A letter for you, Miss Hetton."
"Now who in the world can be writing to you?" asked Mrs Seymor heavily. "You received a letter from your mama less than a month ago, did you not? You might as well open it now, my dear. If it is bad news you will want to let us know soon enough."
Miss Hetton would have liked to take her letter to the privacy of her own room, but she recognized a command in the lady's words and silently opened the sheet.
"It is from Miss Clove, at the seminary," she said, frowning over the neat copperplate handwriting. "She wishes me to visit her next week, the eighth. She writes that it is most important."
Mrs Seymor's brows drew together.
"That is a Thursday. When you joined us it was agreed that you would have every Tuesday afternoon to yourself."
"Would it, perhaps, be possible to change?" suggested Miss Hetton hesitantly.
The older lady's hard grey eyes snapped with disapproval.
"It is very inconvenient at such short notice."
"Oh, let us not be too hasty, my dear," put in her husband mildly. "You will recall that your sister has taken up her annual residence in Cheltenham and we are to go there next week to visit her for a few days. There can be not the least inconvenience to us and I am sure Miss Hetton can make some suitable arrangement for the children. After all, she will only be going to Bath, which is less than five miles from here."
His wife rose.
"Very well, if you see no problem, Mr Seymor, there is nothing more to be said," she declared.
Upon this majestic utterance the lady withdrew. Her husband prepared to follow her, gathering up his paper and letters from the breakfast table.
"You must not mind her too much," he remarked to Miss Hetton, smiling kindly upon her. "The running of this house is a great responsibility and it sometimes makes my dear lady a little short-tempered."
Miss Hetton flushed: "I assure you, sir, Mrs Seymor has given me no reason to think ill of her. I am very grateful to both of you for employing me, I am well aware that with no experience, finding a position as governess would not have been easy, had you decided against me."
"You came with the very highest references, Miss Hetton, and you have not let us down. You may be sure my wife and I appreciate the excellent service you have given us." He rose. "I will arrange for the chaise to be at your disposal on Thursday next, my dear."
With a friendly smile he gathered up his papers and left the room Caroline remained behind, glad of an opportunity to re-read her letter.
Miss Clove's Academy for Young Ladies had been in existence for almost two decades, and it was generally considered to be the best seminary in Bath. Its owner, an indomitable little woman of deceptively frail appearance, attributed no small part of her success to the personal, almost maternal interest she took in each of her charges, but none of them had won her affection more than the young lady taking tea with her that Thursday in her pleasant sitting-room, overlooking the gardens of Queen Square.
"I do hope you did not object to my arranging matters in such a managing way," remarked Miss Clove, looking anxiously at her guest. "With time so short it seemed the wisest course to ask you to come here today."
"Not in the least, dear ma'am. I can only be grateful to you for your continued interest in me. Yet I confess it was the urgent tone of your letter that brought me here. I certainly did not understand its content."
Miss Clove glanced up at the fine ormolu clock on the mantelpiece and folded her hands in her lap.
"We still have a little time," she said. "I will try to explain. Some weeks ago, I received a communication from a Major Lagallan. He was trying to contact you and asked if I could give him your direction. Of course I immediately replied that I could not divulge such information to a stranger."
"No indeed," replied Miss Hetton, feeling that some comment was required of her. "It is not to be expected that you should. I wonder that he should write to you at all."
"But that is the least of it," declared Miss Clove, sitting forward in her chair. "It seemed that no sooner had I sent off my reply than the gentleman called here in person. He told me he had expressed himself very ill in his letter, that his business with you could only be to your advantage and if I would but arrange a meeting I should be doing you a signal service." She adjusted her spectacles, a delicate flush upon her faded cheek. "He was altogether a most personable gentleman, Caroline, and such charming manners: when he asked for my assistance--in a most respectful way--I knew not how to refuse him!"
Miss Hetton allowed herself a tiny smile.
"Taken in by his winning ways, ma'am?"
"By no means! Though I will not say that his countenance is unattractive," returned the other lady, incurably honest. "It was the thought that I might be helping you that persuaded me to lend him my aid."
"Thus you wrote to me, requesting that I call upon you today."
"Yes. Major Lagallan informed me that he would be here by eleven o'clock to explain everything to you."
"How very mysterious," replied Miss Hetton, frowning. "I remember there was a Lagallan family at Sandburrows, but why should this gentleman wish to trace me after all this time? It must be all of ten years since we moved from there."
"It wants but a few minutes to the hour," returned Miss Clove, "You will soon be able to ask him."
Even as the ornately gilded clock struck eleven, there were sounds of an arrival: voices could be heard on the stairs, and seconds later a gentleman was ushered into the room by a wooden-faced servant. Caroline silently applauded his punctuality, and she studied the newcomer as he made his bow to his hostess. He was well above average height, and wore his fair, curling hair unpowdered. His dark green coat was sober enough, but fitted so admirably that Miss Hetton guessed it came from no provincial tailor. Nankin knee-breeches encased his shapely legs, and as he turned towards her, Caroline found herself looking into a pair of surprisingly gentle hazel eyes.
Having performed the introduction, Miss Clove moved towards the door.
"If you have no objection, there are some matters requiring my attention." She added, with a meaningful look at Caroline, "I shall be in my office next door, should you need me."
The major opened the door for the Miss Clove, remarking as he closed it behind her:
"A lady of the most excellent understanding. It is very good of her to allow me to speak to you alone."
Caroline did her best to appear composed.
"Will you not be seated, Major, and tell me what it is you want of me?"
He took a seat and studied her for a long moment before replying. His look was not admiring, and in all honesty she could not blame him: Caroline knew the picture she presented could not be called an attractive one. She was wearing a plain grey gown, its austerity unrelieved by any touch of decoration and her hair, an unremarkable brown, was brushed smooth and dressed close to her head. Her appearance was more necessity than choice: mothers of hopeful young families did not look favourably upon pretty young servants. Caroline did not flinch from his thoughtful gaze.
"I am not what you expected, Major?"
"On the contrary, Miss Hetton. You are every bit as I expected."
A rueful smile touched her lips. "A typical governess! Since it has always been my intention to appear as such, I should be gratified to learn that I have achieved that result. However, I am contrary enough to wish it was not so. But I waste your time, sir. How can I assist you?"
"You are the daughter of Joseph Hetton, late owner of Rhyne House, near the village of Sandburrows?"
"I am."
"Perhaps you recall that my family owns the adjoining estate."
"I do remember something of the kind. Mama was upon good terms with Mrs Lagallan, and there was a son, I believe, a year or so younger than myself. But I cannot in truth say that I know you, Major. Are you a relation of the family?"
"I am the present owner of the Lagallan estate. I was at school from an early age, and from Oxford I went into the army, so my visits to the area were infrequent. The boy you remember is my half-brother, Vivyan."
Miss Hetton shook her head, frowning slightly.
"I was still a child when my father sold Rhyne House. My memories are a little faded."
Major Lagallan rose from his chair and walked over to the fireplace, where an empty grate was hidden by a canvas fire-screen, embroidered by some past student at the Academy.
"The lady you knew as Mrs Lagallan was my father's second wife, my step-mother. Her health declined rapidly after the demise of my father some two years ago. In fact she did not last more than a year without him. His estates passed to me, but my step-mother's jointure was secured to her own offspring--that is, to Vivyan. It was left in trust for him until he is five-and-twenty, or until his marriage, whichever is the sooner." He turned to look directly at her. "That is why I have sought you out, Miss Hetton. I want to know if you would be prepared to marry my brother."
For an instant, Caroline thought she had misheard him.
"Is--is this some kind of jest?" she said at last.
"Not at all. My brother is impatient to have the use of his estates, and for this he needs a suitable wife."
"But surely he is capable of choosing his own bride ... unless he has some defect?" She watched him closely, but her words did not shake his composure. Instead he smiled slightly.
"My brother, Miss Hetton, could choose from any number of ladies, without a doubt, but the key word here is 'suitable'. When my step-mama drew up her will, she was well aware of Vivyan's volatile character, and she thought that by making his inheritance subject to these conditions, she could prevent him from throwing away his fortune. She appointed two trustees, myself and her only brother, Jonas Ashby, who has use of the Shropshire property at present. He is in no hurry to remove from his comfortable living, and will oppose every bride that Vivyan puts forward."
Miss Hetton raised her brows a little.
"And what makes you think that I would be more successful than any other young woman?"
"Your name appears in the will. You are incredulous, Miss Hetton? It is true, nonetheless. If you wish for proof, I can arrange for you to see the document."
As he spoke she jumped up and took a hasty turn about the room, her hands twisting together as she went.
"But I cannot credit it! I could have been little more than ten years old when she last saw me."
"As you have already said, your Mama was on very good terms with Mrs Lagallan, and although your family moved away so long ago, my step-mama retained fond memories of you. She was gravely ill when the will was drawn up; she knew she would not live much longer. She proposed that Vivyan should not take early possession of his inheritance except in the event of his marriage to Miss Caroline Hetton or another such lady, deemed suitable by both trustees."
"Forgive me for saying so," she said, her voice not quite steady, "but one would suspect Mrs Lagallan could not have been in her right senses when she wrote that. To put such trust in a girl she had not seen for years, it is incredible."
"I understand how you feel, Miss Hetton. It is irregular, I agree, but it is binding, nevertheless."
"Yet it can only be a few more years before your brother reaches five-and-twenty. Can he not be patient a little longer?"
"Vivyan is a very impetuous young man. He is also very spirited. I fear that if he is forced to remain at Lagallan House kicking his heels as my pensioner for the next five years he may seek some--unacceptable--outlet for his energies, in which case I fear he will not live to see five-and-twenty."
Her clear grey eyes met his direct gaze without flinching.
"You offer me a charming bridegroom, Major."
"What I offer you, Miss Hetton, is an opportunity to spend the rest of your life in comfort. For all his wildness, my brother knows what is due to his wife. You would be treated with kindness and respect, and be the mistress of substantial properties in Hertfordshire and Shropshire." He paused, regarding her with a faint smile. "I am not asking you to give me your decision this instant. If you are agreeable, I should like you to come to Lagallan House, let us say for one month. You will become acquainted with my half-brother, and if you should decide that you do not wish to marry him, a word to me will suffice. You shall be escorted back to Bath as soon as you desire it."
Caroline stood by the window, motionless, staring unseeingly through the glass. For a full minute after the major had finished speaking she remained there, but at last she returned to her chair and sank down, folding her hands in her lap.
"I would be very foolish not to consider your offer, sir," she began calmly. "My present situation is an unenviable one: to spend one's life at the beck and call of others, and at the end of it to eke out an existence with whatever one has managed to save--I admit it is a spectre that haunts me."
"Very well, then," he replied briskly. "I am returning to Lagallan House tomorrow morning. I shall call here to collect you at noon. Your luggage can follow on when--"
"One moment sir! I fear you go too fast for me," she interrupted him, a note of hauteur creeping into her voice. "However unpleasant my occupation, I have a duty to my present employer. I cannot pack my bags and walk out in an instant."
He regarded her impatiently.
"Very well. When would you be free to travel?"
Miss Hetton bristled at his autocratic manner. She pretended to consider the matter.
"I believe I shall be able to leave Bath at the end of the month."
She thought he did not look very pleased at this, but he merely bowed his head.
"As you wish. Perhaps Miss Clove will allow my carriage to collect you from here on the twenty-eighth."

Machado wows at 'shortstop' with O's in shift
Orioles third baseman makes two great plays in seventh inning
BALTIMORE -- Manny Machado is pretty comfortable in the middle of the diamond, and he showed it again on Wednesday night as the young third baseman used his ridiculous range and arm to put on a defensive clinic in the Orioles' 4-2 win over the Rangers.

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
The human cost of the Greek financial crisis
11 Jun 2011 08:05 GMT | Environment, Humanitarian crises, Asia Pacific, Japan
Protesters in Japen are demonstrating against the use of nuclear power as the country marks three-months since a powerful earthquake and tsunami killed tens of thousands of people and triggered one of the world's worst nuclear disasters.
Several hundred people gathered in the Japanese capital, Tokyo, on Saturday, shouting anti-nuclear slogans and carrying banners reading "immediately stop all use of nuclear power and shut down the plants".
The magnitude-9 earthquake that hit off Japan's northeast coast on March 11 caused a massive tsunami that killed about 23,000 people.
The disasters knocked out power and cooling systems at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant, about 225km northeast of Tokyo, setting off explosions, fires and large radiation leaks at the facility.
Al Jazeera's Marga Ortigas, reporting from Sendai in the north, said protesters are frustrated by the lack of information about the government's vision for nuclear power going forward.
Damage 'worse than previously thought'
Official reports released earlier in the week said the damage and leakage at the plant was worse than previously thought, with nuclear fuel in three reactors likely melting and collecting in the bottom of the cores and some seeping into the inner containment vessels.
The reports also said radiation that leaked into the air amounted to about one-sixth of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in 1986.
Marga Ortigas reports from Sendai
Hundreds of plant workers are still scrambling to bring the crippled Fukushima reactors to a 'cold shutdown' by early next year and end the crisis.
The accident forced more than 80,000 residents to evacuate from their homes around the plant.
Some families have been moved into temporary housing, but supplies are short and sufficient housing is not expected to be completed for several more months.
The disasters have renewed a national debate on the use of nuclear power in Japan, which has few natural resources and is heavily reliant on atomic energy.
Some nuclear plants across the country have been shut down in the wake of the disaster, leading to fears Japan may not have enough electricity for the peak summer months, and several anti-nuclear protests have been held.
All along the coast, a massive clean-up effort continues as cranes and dump trucks haul away the wreckage from hundreds of thousands of buildings that were destroyed or damaged by the tsunami.
Source: Al Jazeera and agencies
Nuclear watchdog wants probe into how two workers were exposed to twice legal level of radiation at tsunami-hit plant.

You can revitalise Hakawa with a range of different terrain types and customize the environment as you see fit.

You can feed your pets, have fun with your pets, and eventually your pets will evolve when you spend enough time with them.

You can raise 213 pets. Which will you choose? I hope you enjoy your time with your pets and, perhaps, reminisce about the nostalgic moments of the nineties.
Access button- on Android devices one of the buttons that is not associated with the Androgochi program on the bottom of your screen is the "Menu" button. It looks a bit like little files. This button will bring up a screen that allows you to choose a name for yourself and pick a style for the game display.
Scale Icon: Viewing pet's status you will see numerous screens.
Feeding: There are two options here. The top selection is a piece of meat which will decrease the pet's Hunger and fill it's hunger bar. The second selection is the Vitamin Pill, which will increase your pets strength and energy.
Training: This is where your pet will train for battle. There are three different ways to train-
1- Classic- This training excersize is about building attacks to full power. You will see a percentage rise from 0 to 100 by 10s. When the power level reaches 100% press the top button of your device and release the attack. A full power attack will destroy the rock target.
2- Shake- Usefull for practicing for battlenet battles. As you select this option the screen will say "ready" and then "COUNT". Carefully and with a firm grasp on your device (safety first!) shake your device evenly from side to side from 2-10 times. Each evolution requires a different number of shakes to reach full power. Full power will create five rounds of double projectiles for maximum damage.
3-Search- This practice mode allows you to fight virtual opponents hidden in barcodes. These fights will mimic the battlenet fights agains live opponents. After chosing the Search option you will see the screen say "ready", and then "COUNT". Shake as you would in a battlenet fight and as previously described in the "shake" section. Your device will then turn on it's camera for scanning. Place a clean barcode in front of it and allow the device to find your opponent. The screen will flash the word "battle" and then the fight will commence as described below.
Fighting: This will allow you to fight another pet and their trainer over the Worldwide Battlenet to increase your Win Ratio.
Toilet: This will flush the screen clear when your pet leaves you a little present approximately every 3 hours. Lights: Select this option to turn the lights off when your pet is sleepy. You must do this within 20 minutes (or before the 'shout' light goes out), or it will count as a care mistake.
Bandage: This is where you provide medical attention for your pet. Sometimes your pet will refuse the treatment, and you must keep selecting the option until it is happy again. The "shout" icon: When it's lit up you have 20 minutes to respond before it goes out or you will get a care mistake. Your pet will only do this when all its hearts in one need have run out. It will also activate when it is time to turn out the lights.

Comment: I just can't get my head around the prices (Score 1) 70 70
We use standalone Zephyr in conjunction with JIRA, Confluence (both hosted OnDemand) and Stash.
What I can't work out is the justification for their pricing.
I pay Atlasssian about $10 per user per month.
Zephyr wants $80 per user per month, others mentioned are $25 per user per month.
Is test management really worth 5-10times as much as I pay for bug and content management ? Or 1000 times as much as I pay for source code and code review ? (Stash is $10 for a year for 10 users)
So we continue to use the Community Edition of Zephyr... I really like Atlasssian's pricing model and they will continue to be my vendor of choice until someone else can match their price/performance combination*
*For more than 10users prices can get high...

NHL Preview: Chicago Blackhawks vs. Columbus Blue Jackets
I don't normally write game previews, but tonight's game between the Chicago Blackhawks and Columbus Blue Jackets is special for me. I covered the Blue Jackets when I began writing for Rant Sports last summer, during the whole Rick Nash saga. Now that I cover the Blackhawks, I had to share my observations.
The Blackhawks are taking everyone by surprise so far this season with their 4-0 start, and a big reason is Corey Crawford's goaltending. He was incredibly shaky last season, his first as a starter, and the nerves that come from being in the spotlight were his downfall. This time around, he's changed his pregame routine – he now sits quietly by himself instead of playing soccer with his teammates. The change has done him a world of good, because he seems more confident and focused in net.
Another factor for the Blackhawks is their special teams. While their penalty kill and power play units were utter losses last season, they've stepped up this season. All three goals in their game against the Dallas Stars on Thursday were on the power play, and their PK units seem stronger than last time. This is because their individual parts have become stronger, with Marian Hossa showing no effects of his concussion and Patrick Kane having one of the strongest starts of his young career. Even Duncan Keith, the hero of the second period Thursday night, is looking to be in Norris Trophy contender form once again.
The Blue Jackets' new crop of forwards could be their biggest key. They added Nick Foligno, Brandon Dubinsky and Artem Anisimov to their roster, although Foligno and Anisimov only have one goal each in four games. But it's early in the season. Keep in mind that Anisimov had plenty of practice in the KHL, where he led Yaroslavl Lokomotiv with 12 goals and 30 points in 36 games. Dubinsky was the leading scorer for the ECHL's Alaska Aces in scoring before he injured his hand. If the Blue Jackets want to neutralize Crawford, they'll likely turn to any of those three for that duty.
Of course, that means nothing when you think about the deadly weapon the Blackhawks have against the Blue Jackets in Viktor Stalberg. He seems to have a Pavlovian response to their games, because he tallied eight goals, two assists and a plus-11 in their six-game series last season. He'll be looking to extend that scoring streak against them.
One thing that could hurt the Blue Jackets is that they're using Steve Mason in net for the game. He had a shaky 2011-12 season, but everyone says he's going to do better this time. All it will take is a few "I should've had that one" moments in the game for him to lose any confidence he had and be replaced with Sergei Bobrovsky.
This game could be the first real test the Blue Jackets will have in terms of their ability to reverse their perpetual bad luck. If they beat the Blackhawks, they'll gain more self-confidence than they've had in a while. The Blackhawks could beat them and come one step closer to ensuring an historic season start. This is a crucial game for both teams, and I can't wait to see how it ends.

Branding Study
A historic project will be initiated in the City of Berkley as a branding study is launched later this month. The city's current logo was crafted more than 75 years ago when Berkley High School students were challenged to create one that represented the things most important to City residents.
MessageMakers, a Lansing based firm, was selected to develop Berkley's brand identity that will be used for the city's website, street signage, social media and other communications mediums. Developing a brand identity requires thought and input from residents, non-residents and visitors. MessageMakers will lead that process in phases, using input from focus groups, online surveys and meetings with city leaders and stakeholders.
The process will begin in late June when focus groups are scheduled to begin. There will be opportunities for Berkley residents to give input at various stages of this process. The branding study is expected to conclude by the end of 2015. Click the link below and take a short survey to provide input for the city's new brand design.City of Berkley Branding Survey

Who Won In The Ratings--The Voice Or X-Factor?
by Alley Faith

Well, the ratings are in and it looks like the winner is.....The Voice! They beat out X-Factor on it's debut night, even with miss Britney y'all. Preliminary numbers show that
The Voice
scored a total of 10.7 million viewers to
The X Factor's
7.5 million. Simon Cowell was NOT happy when The Voice decided to add another show on their debut this week. He told
Ellen DeGeneres
, "We had the schedule set for months. They were going to go Monday, Tuesday. We were going to go Wednesday, Thursday. And, then they waited to the last second to announce that they were going to book a third show up against our premiere because they wanted to spoil our premiere."
The Voice's
Blake Shelton rebutted, "Every time I turn around, he's mouthing off about our show. It's like, 'Do your own show! Come on! Put something together there and do your thing.' We'll just do ours and we won't mouth off about you!"
