Hey, Jeff, How About a Picture?
by Mike Stanz
posted Aug 6 2014 5:00AM
Asking a celebrity to pose for a picture is one thing.
Asking a celebrity to pose for a picture in which he and an entire wedding party are running from a Tyrannosaurus Rex is quite another.
But for Jeff Goldblum – one of the stars of the
Jurassic Park
films – it was just another day as a wedding guest.
The shot was the idea of the groom, and Jeff went along with it. Why not? To see the picture, click on

The good news is, they didn't ask him to recreate a scene from
The Fly
Here's a clip of what it looks like to run from a pack of dinosaurs – in case you've forgotten…

Callahan's Agent Thinking Offer Sheet; Gap in Negotiations; Pot Shot at Richards

The comparison to Blair Betts is so drastically absurd that I don't even know how to respond to it. Good defensive forward is not an apt description for Callahan. Blair Betts is a good defensive forward. Callahan is a near-perfect player, and not just defensively. Away from the puck, he's as flawless offensively as he is defensively. He's always in the right place. If you ever ask anyone who coaches hockey at any kind of significant level and to talk about Callahan, they won't stop raving. He's the type of guy you tell a kid to watch and try to model himself after. He's one of the smartest players in the league today. That cannot be overstated. His hockey sense or whatever you want to call it, is off the charts.
The reason Callahan is criminally underrated is because, unfortunately, some people don't know what to look for, so they can never spot it. There's a marked difference between the way a guy like Callahan plays the game and the way most players. Believe it or not, he's up there with some of the best all-around players in the game. What makes guys like that so good is fundamentals. These players have perfect positioning, and perfect timing. Most players do not. If anyone on the Rangers comes close in that regard, it is Anisimov. Sauer is also close. Dubinsky certainly does not. That doesn't make him a bad player, or to say that he's not a smart player or poorly positioned, because that isn't the case, but it diminishes his value in comparison to players like Callahan, how few of them there are. Callahan isn't as talented as a guy like Kesler, but he plays the game away from the puck almost as well, and Kesler is a top-3 player in this regard.
Dubinsky benefited more from Callahan last season, than the other way around. Callahan can work with any player and in any role. IMO, Dubinsky cannot carry a line offensively (I guess it depends on your definition of carry), his physicality manifests itself just as frequently as Callahan's, and his defensive play and play away from the puck is not the equal of Callahan's. Offensively, Dubinsky is more ambitious than Callahan, but that tends to make him less efficient. You see Dubinsky make flashier plays, and you interpret that as him being better offensively. I interpret that as him being more talented and more skilled, but not the better offensive player. Offensive play on a multi-player rush is probably Callahan's biggest weakness. But in the more frequent and more important zone-based offensive plays, Callahan is more likely to make the simpler, smarter, more efficient play, and he's more likely to execute it.
I like Dubinsky. I like him a lot. He's a very solid young player who brings a lot of good things to the table. However, he's no Callahan. The gap in value between them is significant.
In the first paragraph I think you're mixing up Ryan Callahan and Wayne Gretzky. And he's still terrible with the puck, I don't know how you don't think that's a major flaw.
Callahan in the offensive zone just throws the puck on net. He doesn't hold it and make plays for his teammates.
Here are the shots taken for the two for the past few years (extrapolated to 82 games to make comparison simpler):
Callahan Dubinsky
245 215
217 196
240 188
Dubi sets up Cally, Cally doesn't set up Dubi. It's played out in both their goal to assists ratio. Dubi has more assists than goals every year he's been in the league. Callahan only managed that this past year and only by two assists.

Analysis of Deformation on Coated Paperboard During a Scratch Test by AE
Coated paperboard, which has anisotropic composite structure, is used for packing materials. In the practical die cutting technology, the complicated and fine shape must be machined under the high speed condition precisely. As the insufficient conditions had been supplied, the efficient machining had not been operated. To clarify the deformation and fracture mechanisms of the coated paperboards were investigated using the designed scratch test system. The bending force and Acoustic emission (AE) signals were measured simultaneously on the test. The deformation and fracture behaviors of the paperboards were correlated to the AE characteristics. The scratch test is useful method to evaluate the paperboard characteristics simplify.

Women who overcome breast cancer have every reason to celebrate. But a heart filled with joy may also be a heart damaged by life-saving cancer therapies, a growing body of research shows.
Most breast cancer therapies today including new treatments still under development increase long-term risk of cardiovascular disease, said Lee W. Jones, Ph.D., an exercise physiologist and assistant professor in the Department of Surgery at Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC. We dont know exactly how large the added risk is, but we believe its substantial. Recent gains in breast-cancer-specific survival could be markedly diminished by an increase in the long-term risk of cardiovascular death.
In an article published in the October 9, 2007, issue of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC), Dr. Jones and his colleagues call for taking the long view in breast cancer therapyfocusing not just on the immediate cancer threat but also on long-term cardiovascular health.
There are millions of American women living with breast cancer, said Pamela S. Douglas, M.D., chief of cardiology at Duke and a co-author of the JACC paper. Its important that they dont squander their second lease on life.
Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer among American women, accounting for more than 200,000 new cases each year. Thanks to new and better therapies, death rates from breast cancer are falling dramaticallyby nearly 24 percent between 1990 and 2000, for example. That means that more women than ever before will live for years with the cardiovascular effects of cancer therapy.
Many middle-aged and older women who are diagnosed with breast cancer already have age-related risk factors for cardiovascular disease, such as high blood pressure. In addition, physical inactivity and obesity have been linked to both breast cancer and heart disease. This pre-existing risk only heightens the likelihood that breast cancer therapies

DINING REVIEW: Brown Hound Bistro
June 27, 2013 by Innkeeper
Putting a finger on the Finger Lakes
Summer is in full swing, which is a good excuse to get out of the city. Head south on Route 64, down toward Canandaigua Lake, through Bloomfield, past Bristol Mountain Ski Resort (marvel at the green summer slopes), and stop before you reach Monica's Pies and downtown Naples. Near the "Y" where Route 64 meets Route 21, sits the Brown Hound Bistro. If you haven't yet dined there, you're in for a treat. Simply put, it is one of the best restaurants in the region.
Availing itself of locally grown produce and meats, Brown Hound takes its cues from the season and consistently turns out delicious food. In some restaurants, that might lead to an air of superiority or pretentiousness — not here. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and there to make you happy and comfortable. The interior of the space is warm: Tuscan yellow walls, natural woods, braided rugs, paintings from local artists on the wall. The restroom, tucked under the stairs leading up to the kitchen, is an homage to the restaurant's namesake, owner Trish Asher's departed hound, Henry.
Don't let the occasional pompous patron scare you off. (Guy who groused that his favorite out-of-state microbrew wasn't on the menu: understand where you are and order the local beer.) If you do, you'll remove the possibility of having a meal with tastes, scents, and colors so memorable that dishes might bubble into your thoughts at unexpected times. For instance, driving on 490 last week, I found myself longing for a slice or floral-scented apple, deep rose in color, light rose in flavor, gently sweet and slightly firm to the teeth that I'd enjoyed at Brown Hound two weeks earlier.
The rose petal-apple conserve in question is paired with a customer favorite: pan-seared yellowfin tuna with a scoop of risotto and a scattering of micro greens ($30). Like the majority of dishes on the menu, it's both familiar and unexpected. Each meal's star attraction is a well-prepared and satisfying rendition of a classic dish. But it's in the sides where you'll find the surprises: lovely shocks of color, texture, and flavor that, together, make eating at the Brown Hound both reliable and delightful.
Take the spring house salad ($7). It's not a plate where you'd expect novelty. In some restaurants, it's thoughtless: iceberg lettuce, shaved carrots, limp tomatoes, and maybe some corrugated cardboard posing as croutons. Here, however, the house salad plays with sweet (apple, maple) and sharp notes (red onion, shallots, vinegar), making you eager for the next bite. The lively and fresh greens are sourced just miles down the road from Ambrosia Acres Family Farm. And then there's the scattering of diced and candied bacon. Food writing is oversaturated with declarations of love for bacon, but when it's good, it's very, very good. And when its smokiness is enhanced with a touch of sweetness and a bite of pepper, it's wonderful.
Similarly, the artisan cheese plate ($11) features a mild chevre, muscular blue, and sharp cheddar cheeses — solidly appetizing choices for a Finger Lakes restaurant. Baguette crostinis, crunchy and flavored with olive oil, are eager to be piled with the cheese and — more importantly — the house-made onion marmalade. The marmalade has the texture of chutney: onion slices stand firm against the jam-like background. Cooked for a long time to develop a deep caramelization, the onions are sweetened with brown sugar and perked with ginger and (apple cider?) vinegar. Brown Hound is looking into to bottling the marmalade for sale; home cooks — myself included — will be lucky if it happens.
A few words about chicken. The menu's chicken breast ($24), locally sourced from Sweet Grass Farm, is plump and juicy, but it's still a chicken breast. What interests is its pairing: carrot sambal. Unlike South African or Asian carrot sambals, this is pureed smooth but retains a sambal's spicy, warm heat. It's the star of the entree, elevating the entire dish in the way a bold necklace can enliven a simple black shift dress.
A few more words about chicken: the chicken Moroccan ($38) is a shared plate, with two robust thighs and drums, a heap of couscous studded with dried fruits, and romesco sauce. The chicken's skin is a deep tawny and crisp, almost as if fried, and the meat is succulent. Here, again, the sides shine: fat, sweet dates recall the dish's namesake, while the romesco sauce reflects the piquancy of red peppers.
Lest I've made you think that there's only poultry on the menu, pay attention to the Incredible Wellington ($32), a fillet of beef topped with Lively Run Cayuga bleu cheese and wrapped in puff pastry, served with bordelaise sauce, mashed potatoes, and mushroom duxelles; and the spring risotto ($21), showcasing seasonal vegetables and parmesan cheese.
If you go for brunch, make an effort to sit out on the wrap-around porch, shaded by a brick-red-and-white-striped awning. (Don't worry if it's chilly; the bistro has fleece blankets on hand to keep you warm.) Among my favorites are the French onion soup ($5), a hearty crock that gets the balance of salty and savory with crunchy and cheesy just right; the Sweet Grass lamb burrito ($11), featuring grass-fed lamb topped with tomato, red onion, and Lively Run feta; or the French Hill Toast ($7), made with homemade cinnamon-swirl bread and served with local Sugarbush Hollow maple syrup. (Go early if you want to order that last dish; I've often found that the restaurant runs out of cinnamon bread if I get there after 11:30 a.m.)
And last, but not least, if pastry chef Emmy Wilk's toffee blondie sundae ($6) is available, order it. A blondie is a soft and chewy bar cookie flavored with vanilla and brown sugar. The blondie here is studded with toffee and the sundae is drizzled with salted caramel sauce for a sweet, salty, buttery, chewy treat. Even if you have to eat dessert after breakfast — even if you ate the Omega pancakes ($5 for a short stack) made with buttermilk, Birkett Mills' buckwheat, ground flaxseed, and blueberries — who cares? It's worth it

I very recently hurt my back. I think it was doing 25 reps in the squat, getting a little off balance, but I think it has been sneaking up on me. Not a heavy weight, but I was tired. My lower left back seems to get out of wack at times, it is what I have my chiropractor work on most of the time. I went to the doc, he gave me some muscle relaxant, and recommended going to a physical therapist if it bothered after a week. I saw my chiropractor, felt great, but then a day later when I was lifting a light piece of cedar with a customer, the back pain came right back, terrible. So I made an appt with a physical therapist, who gave me some exercises to do to stretch the back, and then we will do some traction. He thinks I have a disc problem. MRI's are expensive, so I will do this only if it is necessary.
Well, I like working out, and I plan to do so once again, but I am behaving myself for the time being, NoT doing anything other than some light kettlebell work, some ab work that does NoT bother the back, and stretches. I rest more.
Anyway, some time ago I inquired about those hip belt squats. It seems like it takes some doing to get an effective place to do them, so I just did not go buy any. Will these have less mpact on the back, or is the trap bar the best way to go? Right now I am not doing any of that, until I see this get sorted out.
It seems to me that being in the upside of my 50s, that while if I can return to hard exercise for my back, that I need to be sure of what will not hurt the back any more.
Well, thanks for any input.

Tom's daughter Amanda wrote in saying:

Three incredible women. Nearly 300 votes. One winner was determined, but all three were honored. Here's how it all went down when we surprised each on the finalists on Friday, May 11th:
Judy Brewer
Status: Runner Up
Surprised at: Carlos O'Kelley's
Co-Conspirator: Elizabeth, her daughter
Judy was already having a fabulous Friday when I came to surprise her. Elizabeth was graduating from college the following day, so Judy's sister came up for a visit and all the girls planned on doing lunch together followed by a pedicure. Oh la la! I worked with Elizabeth to catch them just after they got seated at Carlos O'Kelley's. After a series of texts, calls and one really awful parking job, I met Elizabeth outside the restaurant, where she led me to meet the wonderful Judy.
As I approached the table with a gorgeous arrangement of flowers, her mom's face erupted into a huge smile. I introduced myself and let her know that she was a runner up in our contest. She was extremely grateful and overwhelmed with the honor. Like the selfless mom that we've come to know and love, Judy started gushing about how fabulous her daughter is. It was obvious that these two have an incredible relationship.
I didn't keep the family very long so that they could continue on with the rest of their "girls day," although I'm certain Judy would have been totally fine if I started sneaking a few chips with salsa and then joined them for a pedi. That's just the kind of wonderful mama she is!
Karen Brenneman
Status: Runner Up
Surprised at: Her Home
Co-Conspirator: Greg, her son
Surprising Karen was a little bit different. She had taken the day off work, so Greg and I weren't sure where she would be at any given time. So instead of trying to chase her down, I called to let her know about the little surprise that Linn Area Credit Union wanted to give her. I have to tell you that even after a short convo on the phone, it was easy to tell why she had so many votes of support. Such a sweetheart!
I popped over to Karen's home in the afternoon and was greeted with a warm smile. She was just as easy to talk to in person as she was on the phone – whew! As we chatted about the contest, Karen started to tell me about how her son Greg can't keep a secret and told her right away about his story. It was really cute. 8-) As she told me more about her children and how proud she is of them, the tears started coming. Oh man. Even I got a little choked up!
Karen certainly is an amazing woman and we're so glad that Greg nominated her!
Helen Girard
Status: Winner of the City Looks Salon & Spa Day of Beauty
Surprised at: Truman Elementary
Co-Conspirator: Shirley, her daughter
For the second year in a row, the person your chose as your winner had NO IDEA that she was even nominated. (I swear, I don't know how people make it happen!) When Shirley heard about the contest, she started to contact not just her own friends and family, but she got in contact with the schools that Helen volunteers at. Many of the votes came from parents and past students whose lives she had touched tremendously. But Shirley didn't stop there. Nope. She hacked into her mom's email and managed to get contact info for Helen's past colleagues and friends from college. Talk about a group effort.
Shirley continued her super stealth moves, determining where her mom would be volunteering that afternoon and then working with that school to allow us the clearance to make the BIG surprise. So at 2:00 pm on Friday afternoon, I pulled into Truman Elementary and waited for the "a-ok" from Shirley. Funny story, as Shirley was arriving at the school, her mom was on the road at the same time. Shirley had to quickly divert to a side street before Helen noticed her!
Once I got the all clear, Shirley and a Truman co-conspirator ushered me to the perfect hiding place off to the side on the gym. Shirley stood with me, shaking with excitement. Literally, the girl was shaking like a leaf. We could hear them bringing in the group of kindergarteners that Helen was working with that day. Helen joined them, none the wiser… cue me and a basket of goodies! (Click here to see the video of how it all went down!)
To say that Helen was shocked is the understatement of the year. In true form, after the initial shock, Helen turned to the group of kids and started to tell them how special each and every one of them are. Sure, her words were directed to the kids that were in the gym at that very moment, but it was clear to me that they applied to every person that she had ever influenced. This woman whole-heartedly believes in the success of the kids, not only in school, but in their home lives as well.
Needless to say, there were lots of tears and hugs.
As we started to give Helen more details about the contest, she was overwhelmed to find out how many people had come out of the woodwork to vote for her. What I wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall when Helen reads all the wonderful comments that people left as to why she was deserving of the Day of Beauty. Hopefully there are many boxes of Kleenex available for that tear jerking experience!
Indeed, Helen is very deserving of some pampering and we're proud that she will reign as our Linn Area Credit Union 2012 Nom the Mom!
We couldn't be happier that these three women were our 2012 Nom the Mom finalists. What impeccable examples of love, strength and unconditional love. Congratulations goes out to all of them and their families! A big thank you goes out to City Looks Salon & Spa for putting together the gorgeous basket for our winner. And, of course, thanks to all of you who voted!
After nearly 300 votes for the finalists, I'm excited to give you the woman YOU voted as Linn Area Credit Union's 2012 Nom the Mom. Check out the video of us surprising her:
Congratulations to our winner and to our other finalists!!! you are all amazing women! Happy Mother's Day!
