13: The Most Memorable Characters0
And by memorable, I mean memorable for a reason other than longevity. Sure, Mario and Link are recognizable to almost anybody, but why? Mario has no story at all, and Link has simply become a "role" that people take on, instead of an actual character...

Free agents who could help the Oilers
Jason Gregor
June 30 2015 12:17PM
This year's crop of free agents isn't great, but there a few players that would help the Oilers.
June 29 2015 06:58PM
On the weekend I had a chance (along with Paul Almeida) to talk with Paul and Griffin Reinhart. It was mere hours after the trade that brought Griffin to the Oilers and both men were pleased with the opportunity.
Edmonton Oilers issue qualifying offers to three
Jonathan Willis
June 29 2015 02:50PM
The Edmonton Oilers announced on Monday that they had issues qualifying offers to three of their restricted free agents. Receiving offers were defencemen Justin Schultz and Brandon Davidson, along with right wing Tyler Pitlick.
Not receiving offers: Apparently, everyone else.
2015 Draft Party Wrap Up
June 29 2015 01:42PM
After months of anticipation and waiting patiently by the calendar the Oilers finally drafted Connor McDavid first overall on Friday, June 26th. To celebrate, we packed the Pint Downtown with as many Nation citizens as we could possibly fit before the fire marshall would shut us down. The result? A hell of a night.
Monday Mailbag - June 29th
June 29 2015 09:29AM
It's the first McDavid Monday of the new era and we couldn't be more excited! All I want to do is read about him, gaze upon him, and kill as much work related time as possible. Enter the Mailbag. Want to be a part of it? Just email it to me at firstname.lastname@example.com or hit me up on Twitter at @jsbmbaggedmilk. As a thank you, I'll send everyone that submits a question a sticker package from the Nation. Questions don't all have to be Oilers related, so be creative.

Archived Story
New quarterback puts Sparkman in the win columnPublished 8:22am Thursday, October 3, 2013
HARVEST- Michael Pruitt waited patiently for two years as a backup quarterback but his wait is over. A four game losing streak to start the season caused Sparkman Head Coach Tim Gillespie to insert Pruitt late in some games.
Then Gillespie reopened the quarterback competition and last week Pruitt got his first start against Grissom and responded with a stellar passing night to lead the Senators to a 48-0 victory.
"He's a low key kind of guy but he decided he wanted to fight for the job and I'm proud of the way he did," Gillespie said. "Him and Mason (Edwards) are still friends, they work side-by-side and they are still battling for playing time and it makes them both better.
He's got a knack to step up in the crease and get rid of the football and he has shown he can move the pocket and keep his eyes downfield," Gillespie said of Pruitt.
Gillespie was not surprised at his performance last week.
"We have confidence in who we put out there," the second year coach said. "He did a good job avoiding the rush and creating some time in the pocket. And getting the ball to open receivers and he threw an accurate ball."
To say he was accurate is an understatement.
In the first half, Pruitt hit 16 of 18 passes for 186 yards and two touchdowns. He finished with some gaudy passing numbers; 20 of 24 passing for 294 yards.
Pruitt is a junior who came up through Monrovia Middle School. He has good size at 6-foot-1 and 185 pounds.
Despite a record of 0-3 in Region 8, Sparkman controls their own destiny starting with a homecoming game this Friday night against Buckhorn.
"We could just as easily be 4-1 as we are 1-4," Gillespie said. "The kids have been resilient. Their attitude has been good at practice and they continue to work hard. Last week was the best game we've played since I've been here, all phases of the game."
Pruitt has help in the Sparkman backfield. Running back Lorenzo James is leading all the running backs in 6A with 926 yards on 84 carries through just five games.
"It's not like we have been blowing people out so all his yards came against 6A first string defenses," Gillespie said.
Against Grissom, James ran for 166 yards and scored four touchdowns as Sparkman won their first game of the 2013 season. He now has nine touchdowns. James scored on runs of 5, 28 and 64 yards and caught a 10-yard touchdown pass.
On the recruiting front, James has visited Furman, JacksonvilleState, and will next visit Middle Tennessee.
One sidebar to the Buckhorn game is that current Sparkman defensive coordinator Chris Hancock was the head coach at Buckhorn last season.

I wrote a page (
cron.php) that uses the imap library to connect to a mailbox, parse messages, and store them in a database, then
echos the results in json. I have a few dozen mailboxes that I need to run this same process for, and so I put together a page (
mailboxes.php) that lists all these accounts, each with a button that when clicked, essentially hits
cron.php via AJAX and parses the json response to update the page when the process is completed.
I've noticed however that if I click each of these boxes, they return as if running serially, not in parallel. Is there a configuration option someplace that might explain this?

2012 - Ratatouille - Rumor - (6/8/10) According to Disney and More, the new Ratatouille dark ride project is all but confirmed for the 20th Anniversary celebration of Disneyland Paris, and will premier at the Walt Disney Studios park at an estimated cost of $130-150 million. The ride will feature 3-D Projection technology mixed with trackless ride vehicles.
As much as I am tired of Disney relying sooo much on Pixar for new attractions, this does sound interesting...though I just don't see how in the world the 3-D can tie-in with a Ratatoullie storyline. I guess I can see it like Spider-man where you board a news reporter vehicle and wear night-vision goggles, and then Remy tries to save the recipes or whatever from the bad chef (forgot his name) and you follow them in their madcap adventure. Whatever the case, I'll be interested to see how Imagineering pulls this off.
Of all the Disney or Pixar franchises, or better yet, original ideas to pick from....why Ratatoullie? I personally think the Incredibles would be a better fit for such an attraction, but that's just me.

Fotofax Newsletter June/Summer 2006 Volume 41 - No. 10 Founded 1965 – our 41st Year June/Summer 2006 Fotofa x The Newsletter of the Northern Virginia Photographic Society National Park Service (NPS) Notice Fellow NVPS members who use tripods, please read the following press release from the North American Nature Photography Association concerning the implementation of photo fees for photography in national parks and other NPS Inside Competition Results Page 3 monument sites. This also includes the monuments in Competition Info Page 4 Washington, DC. For Novice Shooters Only Page 12 For Sale Items Page 14 Attn: NANPA Members: News You Can Use Page 15&16 On April 14, 2006, the National Park Service issued a press Things to Do Page 20 release announcing the implementation of legislation relating to fees for commercial filming and still photography. Unfortu- nately, the press release was vague and caused an uproar among nature photographers who did not understand the implications. We have spoken to a knowledgeable official of the National Park Service and are pleased to report the following: NVPS Calendar THE RULES ARE NOT BEING CHANGED CONCERNING 09 Jun Dinner Banquet STILL PHOTOGRAPHY. 09 Jul Field Trip Federal legislation (Public Law 106-206), which has been on the 05 Sep Sep Program books for several years, provides that the Park Service cannot require a permit or assess a fee for still photography if the photography takes place where members of the public are generally allowed and the photography does not involve models or props which are not a part of the site's natural or cultural resources or administrative facilities. All meetings start The Park Service is not proposing to require permits for this at 7:45 p.m. kind of still photography and, indeed, the Park Service could not legally do so because it would be in violation of the federal "Your PSA Award statute. The reason that this is all coming up now is that Public Law 106-206 does provide for permits and fees for motion picture Winning Newsletter" and video photography and the Park Service is now implement- ing those permits and fees.
