Cray shares jump Friday after good Q1 earnings report
Shares in Cray Inc. jumped nearly 29 percent, or $2.48, Friday after the company announced first-quarter revenues rose to $112.3 million from $39.9 million a year earlier.
The Seattle supercomputer maker said net income rose to $5 milion, or 13 cents per share, from a loss of $1.5 million, or a loss of 4 cents a share in 2011.
Cray said it expects 2012 revenue to be in the range of $430-$450 million; analysts polled by Thomson Reuters First Call expect fiscal 2012 revenues of $404 million.
In the next quarter, Cray said its revenue is expected to be about $85 million; analysts expect $63 million.
"We expect to be solidly profitable for 2012," Cray officials said in a statement.
On Wednesday, Cray said it will sell its interconnect hardware development program and related intellectual property to Intel Corp. for $140 million.
"(The) agreement with Intel ... substantially improves our growth and financial options... This transaction allows us to increase our focus on these technologies and to further expand on our commitment to drive growth from our core supercomputing business and our new initiatives in mid-range supercomputing, storage and big data," said Peter Ungaro, president and CEO of Cray, in a statement.

This past week, I went to Chicago's Thanksgiving Day Parade for the first time in my life. Growing up in the area, the parade always seemed like a huge hassle on Thanksgiving Day. But I wanted to take mi familia down to the parade this year as a treat. I have a three-year-old son and I knew he would get a kick out of the huge, floating Best Buy mascot.
If you asked me a few years back, I wouldn't go near downtown on a holiday. But I figure I should start taking advantage of some of the perks that city life has to offer. For one, parades. Chicago can't seem to get enough of parades. It's almost like we are addicted to being paraded in front of. The only known rehab is budget cuts.
Anyway, we got down there early and snagged a great spot right behind of one the new State Street planters. The city has done a great job sprucing up State St. with decorative pine leaves and berries. It was a nice spot. No one wanted to stand in front of us because the planter was in the way. So we got to watch a parade at Madison and State, the busiest intersection in the world.

Product description
An unforgettable novel, based on a true story, about racism against Italian Americans in the South in 1899. Fourteen-year-old Calogero, his uncles, and his cousins are six Sicilians living in the small town of Tallulah, Louisiana, miles from any of their countrymen. They grow vegetables and sell them at their stand and in their grocery store. Some people welcome the immigrants; most do not. Calogero's family is caught in the middle of tensions between the black and white communities. As Calogero struggles to adapt to Tallulah, he is startled and thrilled by the danger of midnight gator hunts in the bayou and by his powerful feelings for Patricia, a sharp-witted, sweet-natured black girl. Meanwhile, every day, and every misunderstanding between the white community and the Sicilians, bring Calogero and his family closer to a terrifying, violent confrontation. In this affecting and unforgettable novel, Donna Jo Napoli's inspired research and spare, beautiful language take the classic immigrant story to new levels of emotion and searing truth. Alligator Bayou tells a story that all Americans should know.

It is the year 1899. Calogero, a 14-year-old Sicilian immigrant, lives in Tallulah, Louisiana, with his uncles and cousins.
They have all come to America seeking a better life. They do well for themselves, selling fruits and vegetables from a corner grocery store. They do not seek out trouble, but it always has a way of finding them.
Calo and his family do not discriminate between blacks and whites. They sell to anyone who will buy their produce. Members of the town find this behavior reprehensible and disgusting. It is only a matter of time before the white citizens of Tallulah turn their backs on Calo and his family, and destroy every possible hope they had of leading quiet, normal lives.
Donna Jo Napoli has done extensive research for this novel. The afterword explains that Napoli came across an article about five Sicilian grocers in Tallulah, Louisiana, who were lynched because they served a black customer before a white one. The article moved Napoli, and she felt a story must be told about these men. Napoli based her characters on those people who testified or were talked about in the testaments taken after the Tallulah lynching.
The time and effort Napoli has put into her research makes the story more genuine, more affecting. It is a tragic story that ends with a glimmer of hope.
Read this novel - it is a horrific reminder of what can happen when prejudice prevails and mob mentality rules over all.

A Recursive Adaptive Method of Impulse Response Measurement with Constant SNR over Target Frequency Band
Although an impulse response is the output from a linear system when excited by a pulse, such responses cannot be obtained with a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) because the pulse has low energy. Swept sine signals and maximum length sequences are alternative inputs, however, conventional signals still have low SNR problems in some frequency bands. This study is based on a swept-sine that maintains a constant SNR regardless of the frequency. The spectrum of a measurement signal is shaped, adapting to not only the background noise spectrum but also the recursively estimated transfer function of the system itself. To verify the validity of the proposed method, the authors measured the room impulse response in a noisy environment and calculated the room frequency response. The experimental result showed that a frequency response with an almost constant SNR was obtained with two iterations. This approach is useful in reverberation time measurements.

Thus begins a mystery involving human traffickers and an enchanting Belarusian woman on the run.
The result is something harrowing, enchanting, and utterly original.
Thankfully, what remains unchanged are the enchanting Japanese.
late 14c., literal and figurative, from Old French enchanter "bewitch, charm, cast a spell" (12c.), from Latin incantare (see enchantment). Or perhaps a back-formation from enchantment. Related: Enchanting; enchantingly. Enchanted in weakened sense of "delighted" is from 1590s.


text: Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libbonobo2-0 Background: talking to the developer of mail-notify about a possible bug on that application, he pointed out that the bug might rather come from bonobo and added a link to a possible patch. I leave the investigation to someone more knowledgeable than me, but for the moment, I thought I should at least submit a bug report. Here's my question to him: <quote> > There is only a small problem, though. When you leave mail-notify running > and Evolution itself is not running, after a while it happens that > bonobo-based applications cannot be started anymore. That happens with > nautilus and epiphany, for example. Either killing the mail-notify running > process or deinstalling the software completely, seems to solve the problem. > The error shown is the following (when trying to start nautilus in this > case): </quote> And here's what he replied: <quote> This is very likely caused by a file descriptor leak bug in bonobo-activation (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=315650). When Evolution is not running, Mail Notification is trying to contact it every second. Because of the bonobo-activation bug, each contact attempt causes the bonobo-activation-server process to leak out one file descriptor. Eventually bonobo-activation-server exhausts all the available file descriptors and bad things start to happen. What I suggest: contact the libbonobo package maintainer for your distribution and ask him to add the patch available in the bugzilla entry I've mentioned above. </quote> Thanks. ** Affects: libbonobo (upstream) Importance: Unknown Status: Unconfirmed ** Affects: libbonobo (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium Assignee: Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Rejected -- Possible file descriptor leak in bonobo https://launchpad.net/bugs/44078


text: This hostel really isn´t a clean place. The showers and toilets only work half of the time and they occasionally run out of water. So the toilets cant be flushed anymore and you can imagine what happens next. Our Room was OK. The atmosphere with the others backpackers on the terrace in the first floor with hammock was nice. They definitely serve the best breakfast. You get two yummy pancakes along with a huge selection of fruits. On top they put coconut flakes. Very nice. But they don´t let you use the kitchen. We also stayed at a different place in Montezuma and the bathroom situation seemed everywhere in this village the same.... The people running the hostel are a bit weird tough. make sure when you book the room that they also include your breakfast. Our friends did´t get served their breakfast for some reason and the hostel-owner got really unfriendly.

Spring paper crafts have never looked this pretty. Use a vintage technique to create Crunched Tissue Flowers from Heidi Borchers. They won't wilt away and require no water - what could be better? These flowers look good even in the dead of winter.
- Aleene's Fast Grab Tacky Spray
- Aleene's Original Tacky Glue
- Tissue paper (two coordinating colors)
- Brayer
- Scissors
- Crunched Tissue Petal and Leaf Pattern
- Cereal box cardboard
- Knitting needle
- 18 gauge stem wire (green coated)
- Wire cutters
- Pliers
- Additional supplies for leaves and calyx: green tissue paper
Print out patterns and transfer to cereal box cardboard. Cut patterns along pattern line.
Cut tissue paper into half sheets. Scrunch up to add texture and smooth out with hands.
Following label instructions, spray Aleene's Fast Grab Tacky Spray onto one piece of tissue. Immediately glue to second piece of tissue. Run hands over tissue with light pressure. Roll brayer over entire surface of tissue to bond pieces together.
Cut tissue into strips slightly larger than petal pattern. Fan fold first strip so that you can cut several layers together.
Hold petal pattern over top of tissue and cut along edge of pattern to create petals.
Hold knitting needle along top half edge of petal and roll one turn. While still holding petal on needle, use fingers to gently crunch in from each side. Remove needle. This will create a curled edge of petal. Repeat on other top side of petal. (You can look at the project photo above or watch the video tutorial for great clarification on this step!) Repeat to curl each petal.
To assemble the flower, using pliers, create a small hook on the end of one stem wire.
Use toothpick to apply a line of glue to bottom sides of petal. Lay hooked end of wire in middle of petal and fold over edges to create flower center. Wrap tight so that you do not see the hook.
- Continue to glue each petal around center. 4 -5 petals will create a medium size rose.

Explain in a few sentences why this is clinically important and name an example of a drug that is used to treat cystitis. This is important because the drug will concentrate in the urine and will not have been metabolized before it gets to the kidney. Example nitrofurantoin c. Explain if we can use this drug to treat pyelonephritis, which is a systemic infection. We cannot use nitrofurantoin for pyelonephritis, since it never reaches high enough concentration in the blood to treat the infection (the Cp never reaches minimal therapeutic concentrations)

Many people do not know that they are just not overweight, but they are obese until they get on that weighing scale and the needle tells them so. So there needs to be something done quickly to get rid of all that weight that is causing so many issues. You can learn more about losing weight the healthy way at: https://venusdiet.net/how-to-lose-10-pounds
The number of obese people is increasing enormously now a days because of the eating habits. When people start to lose weight, there are many who just gain back the weight that they have lost as soon as they get back to their old habits. This causes them to go in their depression state and they just keep on going from one diet program to another. The thing that they are not aware of is that these fashion diets just cause them to gain even more and destroy their health as well.
The reason of weight should not only be good looks, but it should be related to your health because if your health is poor then you are more prone to heart diseases as well as diabetes and other diseases as well.
Not only health problems, obesity has been contributing to half a million heaths per year worldwide which is even worse. This means that you are willingly putting your life in danger by going from one diet to another. You must follow a proper nutrition and exercise plan.
You need to set some goals for yourself.
All those weight loss pills and diet plans that say that you will lose the weight quickly are all scams and not realistic at all. You must know that no miracle will make you lose the weight overnight. You will just be jeopardizing your health ad nothing else.
First of all you need to be sure of what you want and set some goals for yourself that you know you will stick to no matter what. You must plan on eating a well-balanced diet along with a reduction in all the junk that you eat. Those sugary drinks and fast food should be out the list.
You must also follow an exercise program along with a diet plan to increase your metabolism. First of all consult a physician and see what can be done. Make sure to begin with walking or some other activities that you enjoy and do not make you go over the board. Once you start, you will notice that it will become a part of your daily routine.
Be slow and steady
You will notice some incredible changes once you follow a proper exercise and diet plan. You will also see reduction in your weight which you know will not come back.

Specification of Letters Patent. I
Faten'ted June 8, 1924).
Application filed September 6, 1918. Serial No. 252,947.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, SHEPARD M. Corr'rnn, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Phoenix, in the county of Maricopa and State of Arizona, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Methods and Apparatus for Constructing Concrete Piles, of which the following is a specification.
My invention is a new and improved method and apparatus for constructing cast-in-place concrete piles. The main object of this invention is to provide a method of driving and casing the hole in the ground (into which the concrete-pile is cast) so as to develop a minimum of resistance to penetration upon the part of the material penetrated. This object is accomplished by the use of a casing, consisting of a series of telescoping cylindrical sections of suitable length, which are so designed,
related, and actuated that skin-friction between the casing and the ground penetrated is practically eliminated. At any time during the process of driving the hole, the maximum possible skin-friction which can exist, will be that developed by a single section, as at any time, only one section is both in motion and in contact with the material penetrated. The hole into which the casing is placed, is formed bydriving into the ground, a drive-shaft fitted with a pointed shoe or tip, this shaft being concentric with the casing, and actuating the movements of the casing sections. The arrangement is such that the drive-shaft may be easily removed to permit the cased hole to be filled with concrete. Also, provision is made such that the shoe may be locked to the driveshaft, and these, together with the casings, withdrawn.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a vertical section through the apparatus in position to drive the pile,
Fig. 2 is a view showing the casingdriven, the casing being shown in section, and the drive-shaft, collars, and shoe shown in elevation.
Fig. 3 is a section on the line 33 of Fig. 1, looking in the direction of the arrows adjacent to the line,
Fig. 4 is a sectional view through the driving cap, U
Fig. 5 is a top plan view of the same,
Fig. 6 is a vertical section of the interlocking nut of the drive-shaft,
7 is a top plan view of the same,
Flg. 8 is a partial side view of the shoe or tip, and A Fig. 9 is a top plan view of the same.
The apparatus embodied in this invention, as shown in the drawings, consists of the following 1. A drive-shaft 10, consisting preferably of a wrought-iron or steel pipe, in sections of convenient length. The couplings for these sections to consist of a threaded metal sleeve with a polygonal hole 11.
2. A shoe orv tip 9, with a conical or other sharp point, and with a cylindrical stem 14, of such diameter as to fit easily into the drive-shaft, which normall passes over this stem and rests upon the ase of the shoe. This shoe and stem may consist of metal, concrete, a combination of metal and concrete, or other suitable material. The diameter of the base of this shoe to be slightly larger than that of the outermost casing section, 1.
3. The cylindrical casing sections. These casings to consist of iron or steel plate, or other suitable material. The number of sections for any particular case depends upon the lengtli fixed for these and the depth of penetration required. The drawing shows six, 1 to 6 inclusive. At the top of each of these cylinders, except the outermost one, there is a lug 8, about the outer circumference, and at the bottom of each of them, except the inside one, there is a lug 7, about the inner circumference. The diameter to the outside of the lug 8, on any cylinder, is the same as the diameter to the inside of the lug 7 on the adjacent outside cylinder, and the diameters of these cylinders are such. as
- just to permit the free vertical movement of the cylinders with respect to each other, until the top lug of one comes into contact with the bottom lug of the adjacent outside one. The inside diameter of the innermost cylinder is such as to pass freely over the special fitting on the lower end of the driveshaft. These cylinders are of varying length, as shown, decreasing in regular amounts from the outside one to the inside. A collar 29, is attached to the-outer circumference of the outside cylinder. The cylinders may consist of solid late, or may have perf rations in them i required in special circumstances. 7 4-. The apparatus controlling the motion of the cylinders with respect to the drive- .shaft and shoe, consisting of the collars 21 to 26 inclusive; thebolts or bars 27 and the 'pins 28. The collars, except 26, consist of thick metal rings of constant inside diam-' idly connected to the drive-shaft, by means of screw threads or otherwise, and is so placed as to be in, or nearly in, contact with the top of the innermost cylinder when this rests upon the base of the shoe. This collar is so designed as to provide four suitable holes, at 90 with each other, and through these holes pass the bolts or bars 27, the head of the bolts being below the fitting. These bolts pass through holes provided in the collars. Holes are provided through the bolts just above the position fixed for the top of each collar, for the insertion of pins of a suitable diameter. The position of each collar, when the apparatus is assembled, is determined by the length of the corresponding section of casing, and the lengths of adjacent sections are made to differ by such an amount that there will be a clear space between consecutive collars, permitting the pins above each collar to be placed with ease. The pins are so designed as to be the weakest structural element of the apparatus. That is, the pins will fail in shear under a stress which is insufiicient todamage or distort-the bolt 27, the collars, or the. lugs about the casing sections, when these "latter are in position to limit the movement of one "section with respect to another.
5. Kttached by screw threads 13 to the .bottom f the'drive-shaft, there is a special metal fit ing 12 designed so as to distribute over a larger areathe percussion transmitted to the shoe by the drive-shaft under the impact of the pile-driving. hammer. This fitting 12 and the stem 14 of the shoe, are
so designed as to afford a means of locking the shoe to the drive-shaft, and withdrawing the same, together with the casing. The
. details of this design are shown in Fi s. 6,
7, 8, and 9. In Fig. *8 the maximum iameter of the stem is slightly smaller than the inside diameter of the drive-shaft. This diameter. is decreased over a section'of-the ting 12 is offset so as to provide a shoulder for the drive-shaft to rest upon, and the inside'diameter of this shoulder is equal to that of thesdriveshaft. The depth of this shoulder is made slightly less than the width of the circumferential groove around the stem 14, and on the inside surface there are provided four vertical ribs at 90 with re-- spect to each other the full depth of the shoulder, and of a radial height. equal to that of the depth of the grooves-16 and 19 on the stem 14. Y Consequently, when the ribs on thefitting 12 are turned to register lock the drive-shaft ,to the shoe, to permit withdrawing the latter, the drive-shaft is lifted slightly 'until the bottomof the fitting 12'is just above the top of the lower portion 18, Fig. 9, of the stem. A slight turn of the drive-shaft places the ribs 15 of the fitting 12 in the circumferential, groove on the stem 14, and out of. line with the vertical grooves 16. Any further lifting brings the top-of these ribs into contact with the top shoulder formed by the circumferential groove, and permits the shoe to be withdrawn.
In constructing a cast-in-place concrete pile by means of my invention, the method and the action of the apparatus is as follows The apparatus is first assembled upon the shoe in place in the manner shown in Fig. 1; the 'driving cap 30, Figs. 4 and 5, 1s placed' on the drive-shaft and in the leads of the'Ipile-driver. Thiscap 30 has an annular'groove 31 on its under face, for receiving the outer end of the driving shaft 10,
tion by the collar above it, this section (andv obviously, all of those inside it) 'follow down into the hole with the shoe, all the while resting upon the base of the shoe as shown inthe assembly, Fig. 1. The travel of the outermost section is stopped when the collar 29 comes into contact with the earth or other obstacle provided for the purpose, the resistanceoffered by the collar to further P'travel being sufficient to shear the pins 28 These pins being above the collar '21. sheared, the collar 21 comes to rest upon the top of section 1. The remainder of the collars and sections continue to follow the shoe as it penetrates, passing through the now stationary section 1, until such time as the lug 8 on section 2 comes into contact with lug 7 on section 1. The resistance offered by the lugs to further travel of section 2 is such as to shear the pins above the collar 22 and section 2 comes to rest .with collar 22 at rest upon its top. Section 3 then be comes the outside sectlon in motion, and the above described process is continued. until all the sections are extended and the desired penetration accomplished. It is to be observed that during the entire process of driving, the maximum surface developing skinfriction at any one time is that of one section of casing, since only one of these at a time is both in motion and exposed to the pressure of the penetrated material. Also,- since the hole immediately ahead of this section is of greater diameter than the easing, there will be very little resistance to the travel of this section. v i
The collars, as they come to rest upon the top of their respective sections, continue to perform important functions. They serve as a rigid guide and support for the 'drive' shaft, insuring the efliciency of this member in transmitting the blow of the hammer to the shoe, and insure the correct alinement of the hole. They also serve as supports and reinforcement for the casing sections against the pressure exerted b the penetrated material, during the perio of driving, when this is most needed. They ma also continue in this capacity during the lling of the hole with concrete, as hereinafter mentioned.
Generally, it is desired to leave the casings in the ground, and these may be considered as adequate to resist the pressures against them without the reinforcement afforded by the collars, during the interval between the removal of the collars and the filling of the hole with concrete. In this case, the desired penetration having been accomplished, the
drive-shaftis lifted out, bringing up with'it the collars, which are picked up in order by the fixed collar'26, beginning at the bottom. The hole is then filled with concrete, or other material suitable for the purpose.
I; the material penetrated is such that there would be danger of the collapse of the casing upon the removal of the reinforcing collars, the driving cap may be released and as many sections of the driving shaft as convenient, may' be removed, and concrete poured down the hollow driving shaft, withdrawing this and the collars as the concrete rises in the hole. I
When, for any reason, at any period of driving, it is desired to withdraw the shoe and the cylinders, this may be done by locking the drive-shaft to the shoe, as previously described, and withdrawing the drive-shaft.
The shoe being-of greater diameter than an of the casing cylinders, and concentric wit of the hole and the outside of the casing sections, these sectionsshall be perforated in such manner as to permit the concrete, when poured into the casin to flow out in such quantity as to fill said annular space.
Should the resistance of the penetrated material to the travel of any sections be such' as to shear the pins 27 before said sections have traveled their allotted distance, they will ultimately be extended in full, if the shoe is driven to such depth as would normally accomplish this. The innermost section must travel with the shoe, because of the collar above it (26) being rigidly attached to the drive-shaft. As this section descends, if there are any intermediate sections which are not fully extended, they will be forced into their proper position by virtue of the pull exerted upon their lugs, said pull being primarily transmitted by the upper lug of the innermost section.
I claim 2- 1. A device of the character specified, comprising a drive-shaft, a pointed shoe, a series of interlocking, telescopic, cylindrical casing sections of varying diameter, ar-
ranged one within the other around the drive-shaft and normally resting upon the base of the shoe, a series of collars of varying outside diameter passing over the drive: shaft and resting along their outer edges upon the tops of the respective sections, and a frangible connection between the driveshaft and each of the collars.

I haven't read The Book of Tea, nor do I profess to know much about Okakura, but the aspects of Teaism and it's 'tea-induced simplicity' in art and architecture sound very much like wabi-sabi (though wabi-sabi seems to incorporate a more Buddhist bent towards impermanence, as well).

While teaism is in The Book of Tea, I think the concept teaism deserves its own article, just like tea ceremony and tea culture. icetea8 (talk) 17:26, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
- Can you say why you think teaism deserves its own article? Teaism gets less than 30,000 hits on google--that is not too high. Most of the hits refer to a restaurant of that name in Washington DC. I can't find any Google hits about teaism as a stand-alone concept, outside of its use in The Book of Tea or as the name of a restaurant. Most of your edits to Teaism refer to The Book of Tea. The section on terminology of dao/do is incomprehensible. Logical Cowboy (talk) 17:34, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
I agree not many hits. It is a term that can be used for tea culture and studies, and is a specialized term used in tea terminolgy. i understand "the book of tea" article is about the book and the term teaism was coined by Okakura Kakuzo. Yet the term teaism is a subject of its own. And it can be used to describe tea ceremony as the interests in tea and pursued over time with self-cultivation. icetea8 (talk) 02:58, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
- What is the evidence (from 3rd party sources) that teaism is notable outside The Book of Tea? Most of teaism is about its use in The Book of Tea. Teaism does not seem notable outside of The Book of Tea and the Washington DC restaurant, or at least teaism does not make the case. Logical Cowboy (talk) 03:15, 7 February 2011 (UTC)
Google hits- for better results, when you search teaism put in a keyword like ceremony, this will get hits that are not the teashop, hits on google are commercial/advertising affected. icetea8 (talk) 18:04, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
Within the article, it says that The Book of Tea was originally written in English. On various other sites however, it says it has been written in Japanese and translated (eg. here in German (http://www.sandammeer.at/rezensionen/tee-okakura.htm). What is now true? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.127.116.11 (talk) 13:52, 31 January 2014 (UTC)

Let Homer Play

from Bruce Dowbiggin of the Calgary Herald,
The next time the NHL wants to send a message, try dialing 1-800-FLOWERS instead of disallowing goals. Since when did Tomas Holmstrom's play in front of the net become a threat to competition in the NHL? Is scoring so rampant that the NHL can nit-pick like a PGA Tour official over some arcane rule? The way the league is hounding him—Saturday's disallowed goal was absurd—you'd think Holmstrom, not Chris Pronger, was the one suspended eight separate times.

Cherry Not Happy With Over the Glass Rule

from the CP via the Ottawa Sun,
Speaking shortly after Rick Nash's delay of game penalty led to Ilya Kovalchuk's overtime winner in Canada's 5-4 loss to Russia in the gold-medal game Sunday, Cherry ranted that the rule was ruining games….
"The National Hockey League, the reason they put this in, this goofy stupid rule, is because they said players were tired and they were shooting it in the stands," an emotional Cherry said during his Coach's Corner segment on the CBC. "If the guy knows he's getting a penalty, would he shoot it in the stands? Some fool in the National Hockey League had nothing to do (but) come up with that stupid rule and it's cost series."

from Bob McKenzie of TSN,
Contact with a goaltender is not under the criteria for a review; however if you are going to use video review to decide something as subjective as a goal being scored with a high stick, than this should be a no-brainer. If a player is standing in front of the net it is much more clear-cut from the overhead view to see if there was contact or not with the goaltender. The NHL either needs to include interference in the criteria of goal review or get rid of the review of goals scored with a high stick.

The "Verification Line"
by Alanah McGinley on 05/13/08 at 12:35 AM ET
Comments (0)
From Darren Dreger at TSN,
We saw that in Game two of the Flyers-Penguins game when it appeared that Sidney Crosby had scored to give the Penguins a 2-0 lead late in the first. Most believe that it was a goal, but video review couldn't conclusively prove it.
The NHL wants to get it right and has experimented in the past with visual aids that have never been adopted. Last year, during the Stanley Cup final the NHL's hockey operations department tested what it called a "verification line." The test was conducted in between games and was meant to be highly secretive.
The test was however caught on camera and it uncovered a second line painted on the ice behind the goal line creating a gap a fraction wider than the width of the puck. So, if the puck touched this "verification line" than it would be deemed a good goal.

from Chilling Out by John Glennon at the Tennessean,
If the first round of the NHL playoffs earned notoriety for the so-called "Sean Avery rule,'' then this round of the postseason should focus on a "Tomas Holmstrom rule.''
Specifically, here's what it should be: Any goal scored by Holmstrom gets automatically reviewed by the NHL.

Looking At OT Penalties
by Paul on 05/06/08 at 08:57 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Dan Daly of the Washington Times,
Caps owner Ted Leonsis, still binding his wounds after the loss to Philadelphia, isn't entirely supportive of the NHL's new penal code. "I think in OT of [the] playoffs there should only be penalties that impede a goal being scored. No ticky-tack calls," old school Ted said in an e-mail yesterday.
He's hardly the only one who holds that opinion. Indeed, the officials themselves seem torn between The Way Hockey Used To Be and The Way The Board Of Governors Wants It To Be. In the Dallas-San Jose finale, for instance, they went more than an entire game — 70 minutes, 52 seconds, to be exact — without sending anybody to the box. Then they called hooking against the Stars' Nicklas Grossman in the third OT and tripping against Campbell in the fourth. San Jose couldn't cash in on its power play, but Dallas (or rather, Brenden Morrow) did.

from Adam Proteau of the Hockey News writing about today's Rangers/Penguins game…
I think the Hockey Gods are trying to call you out, Stephen Walkom. There can be no possible rationalization for your officials continuously putting their hands in their pockets in third periods of games.
I'm normally one of your biggest defenders, but what's going on is casting everything – the officials, the players, and the game itself – in a not-so-positive light.

via the 2008 Stanley Cup Blog at CBC,
"We have made 200 to 250 calls on kicking plays," (Mike) Murphy said. "What we have come to determine is that the difference between a kick and a deflection is the force of the puck. If the force of the puck was going to put it into the net at the same speed or a decreased speed, then there wasn't a kick.
"But if the motion of the leg increases the force or speed of the puck, then we believe that is a kick. We believe (Morrow's) kick propelled the puck forward and made it go into the net."

Whistle Blower

Comments (0)
from The Good, The Bad And The Duthie,
Video review works. With the HD cameras it has in every building now, the NHL has virtually eliminated those "Was it a goal or not?" controversies. They usually get it right. So why not take it to the final frontier? Allow reviews of early whistles.
Please refrain from eye-rolling. And don't give me that old line about once the whistle blows, nothing else matters. We're not talking about things that occur two or three or five seconds after the whistle. All these goals happen within a fraction of a second. It's simple: if the puck is on its way in when the whistle blows, and the folks in the video review room in Toronto decide the whistle should not have blown, the goal should count.

Adventure Seeker
Well there are a lot of witty and philosophical profile descriptions on here so I guess I should write something more than "I like long walks on the beach or candle light dinners" however that being said, I am not opposed to either of those. As the above states, I currently live in San Francisco and love it. I studied abroad in Australia and lived in England after school so I decided I might as well get to know and explore my own city more. I am always up to going to a new restaurant, checking out a concert and playing around in the outdoors. While I may freak out a bit I am also up to do crazy adventures and at some point in my life I do plan on skydiving. I currently work in advertising although interestingly enough I have been told quite a few times that I should do voiceovers. I can ensure you though that I do have a normal voice. Some of my favorites are music, of any sort but especially indie, new and old movies, soccer, hiking, family and friends, red wine, sandwiches, great play lists, lazy Sundays, laughing and sarcastic jokes. What I am looking for? Great question. Just an outgoing person that can chat it up with anyone, enjoys being active, wants to try new things, doesn't mind sarcasm, likes to travel and just wants to enjoy life. Well that is the short summary. I look forward to chatting with you!

Article: High density of peritumoral lymphatic vessels measured by D2-40/podoplanin and LYVE-1 expression in gastric cancer patients: an excellent prognostic indicator or a false friend?[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: One of the most important prognostic indicators in gastric cancer is the presence of metastases in lymph nodes. Even now, little is known about lymphangiogenesis in neoplastic tissue, and little is also known about the transmission of a neoplastic cell from the tumor mass into a lymphatic vessel. METHODS: This study examined the relationships between the density of lymphatic vessels (LVD) stained immunohistochemically with lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronan receptor-1 (LYVE-1) and D2-40 (podoplanin) antibodies, the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C/D, selected clinical and pathomorphological factors, and the 5-year overall survival of gastric cancer patients. RESULTS: Statistical analysis showed no impact of increased intratumoral or peritumoral LVD on gastric cancer patient survival, irrespective of the protein used to stain lymphatic vessels. Analysis showed that the probability of overall survival was decreased in the cases with enhanced VEGF-D immunoreactivity (P = 0.0045). CONCLUSION: The study showed that the studied markers cannot be used to determine the required extent of the surgical procedure, as they have no statistically significant correlation with the degree of progression of the cancer, the stage of the disease assessed according to the TNM 5th classification of malignant tumors, clinicopathological features, and patient survival. VEGF-D is the only marker that can be regarded as an unfavorable prognostic indicator for patients with advanced gastric cancer.Gastric Cancer 12/2012; 16(4).

Article: The evaluation of the influence of a high injury to brachial plexus elements on the condition of neurons of the anterior horns of the spinal cord--experimental research.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The aim of the experimental research was to assess the impact of a high damage to brachial plexus elements on the condition of neurons of spinal cord anterior horns. The research was conducted on 12 rabbits, in which the ventral branches of spinal nerves C5-Th1 were severed. During dissections carried out 7, 30, 60, 180 days after the operation the cervicothoracic segment of the spinal cord was collected. The material was subjected to microscopic histological and ultrastructural examinations, which showed that where brachial plexus elements had been severed some of the neurons of spinal cord anterior horns had died and that the process intensity depended on the time that had passed after the injury.01/2009; 47(4):347-53.
Article: [The evaluation of the properties of the silicone-rod and tissue reation after 5,5 years period of implantation].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: In this study we presented a case of prolonged detention of the temporary flexor tendon prosthesis after implantation in the hand. The silicone-rod removed after more than 5 years was subject to an examination: scanning microscopy, measurement of hardness, scanning differential calorimetry, spectroscopy in infra-red and resistance examinations. The obtained results were compared with a findings after examinations of the new, not used silicone-rod. The greatest changes were observed in maximum value of tensile strength (sigmaB) of the material after test of uniaxial tensile tests, which was about 30% smaller for a silicone-rod after implantation. The other result of investigations didn't reveal an important differences between a new and a used rod. The comparison of the tissue reaction was performed by collection a part of sheath in described case and a part of sheath produced around a rod after 10 weeks period of implantation. The generation of a capsules consisted of fibrous connective tissue with concomitant inflammation process was observed in both cases in histopathological view. Silicone rubber is a material which preserve its most important properties even after prolonged period of implantation.Polimery w medycynie 02/2007; 37(1):25-33.

ABSTRACT: In this study we presented essential historical data about application of the fibrin glue in microsurgical reconstructions of the peripheral nerves. The technique of the preparation of the fibrin glue and the most important aspects of the clinical practice were described. We presented also our own experience in the use of the fibrin glue (Tissucol Kit firmy Baxter AG, Beriplast P firmy Behring), in microsurgical reconstructions of the brachial plexus and peripheral nerves. The basic principles of management were emphasized and a few clinical cases were presented. Microsurgical reconstructions of the nerves with using of the fibrin glue are atraumatic and don't cause inflammation and granuloma formation. These methods allowed to while away the time of surgical procedure and allowed to perform a microsurgical reconstruction in difficult conditions. Microsurgical reconstructions of the nerves with fibrin glue application may be used individually or in connection with suture materials.Polimery w medycynie 02/2006; 36(2):11-5.

"The omega-3 fatty acids in cold-water fish help the brain respond to signals from the mood chemicals dopamine and serotonin," Ilardi says, adding, "The antioxidants and flavonoids in colorful fruit and veggies work in combination with omega-3s to protect the brain from harmful inflammation that can trigger depression."
How you cook the fish can definitely affect how good it is for you. Grilling, broiling, poaching and baking all preserve salmon's healthy fats. Deep-frying, however, might cancel out salmon's benefits by increasing the amount of unhealthy fat it contains. Smoking the fish doesn't affect omega-3s, but it does add nitrites; studies indicate a link between the chemicals and stomach cancer. But salmon doesn't need to be fried or smoked to taste great. Don?t forget to fill up your cart with these stress-busting foods.
