Riverside is really nice. It has a lot to offer. Downtown Riverside is where its happening though. There is so much to do there. The good thing about Riverside is that you are not fair from other amazing places in California.
This school is extremely fair. Not too strict. They do have a dress code, but it is completely understandable considering the morals of the school. Of course if you are attending a Christian university, they are going to be more strict on things like drugs and alcohol, and honesty from the students.
They have a lot of opportunities for scholarships there.

The Sysadmin's Daily Grind: Dnsgraph
A partly overloaded DNS server can slow down all the workstations on the network. Dnsgraph is an early warning system that gives administrators a graph of critical values. Your Dnsgraph charts will help you keep your systems serving names.
Just recently I heard about a memory genius who could remember the value of pi to several thousand decimal figures; at the same time, this person couldn't explain the practical value of this exercise. People like that don't need a DNS server; instead they could just memorize a few thousand IP addresses. But normal folks prefer DNS. And if you run a name resolution service yourself, I'm sure you will appreciate Dnsgraph [1]. The project name indicates a similarity with projects such as Mailgraph and Queuegraph, and Dnsgraph is actually based on Mailgraph. The tool parses a file for the status information generated by my Bind 9 DNS server [2], and converts the figures into a graph.

This movie is a modern day update of the classic 1987 teen movie "Can't Buy Me Love," Alvin Johnson is a high-school senior, a likable brilliant outcast who regrets the years of intellectual endeavors that kept him and his un-hip friends from learning other skills such as socializing, getting girlfriends and hanging out with the "Elite Crowd". When Paris Morgan (queen of the Elite crowd), wrecks her mom's car, Alvin tries to help her out by mortgaging his future. In exchange for Alvin?s automotive skills and $1500 in car parts, Paris agrees to "fake a front" to the whole school that she and Alvin are dating. As Alvin's ego soars he stands the chance of losing his true friends, his chance for a scholarship and a shot at a real relationship with Paris.

Just left and have to say, after speaking with the manager, we are not happy :( After a recent illness, we were looking forward to a relaxing getaway at the beach
A few things were not disclosed when we made our reservation:
1. Their indoor pool is closed so you have to walk outside to the hotel next door.
2. The hot tub was dirty with clumps of hair and green foamy substance. When I asked an employee he said it was a combination of dirt, makeup, hair and general "smeg" he didn't seem too concerned about it.
3. The biggest issue was construction noise. There were bulldozers and dump trucks working on the beach directly in front of the hotel ALL NIGHT! We called to complain at midnight and 3 a.m. Only to be told "it's the
city nothing we can do" this sentiment was echoed by the manager upon checkout :(
4. The oceanfront view also consisted of these construction vehicles.
5. This is also a timeshare resort. The timeshare desk is directly across from check in so be prepared to be hounded by them to take a tour. We disconnected our room phone after several calls asking us to take a tour.
The room was clean, many employees were very nice; however, the manager was rude and indifferent. We will not return to this hotel and I strongly suggest anyone considering it ask for a complete disclosure beforehand!
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- As one of the newest oceanfront resorts in Virginia Beach, Ocean Beach Club features upscale studios with kitchenettes, and 1- and 2-bedroom suites with fully-equipped kitchens and separate living rooms with queen sleeper sofas. Resort amenities include an oceanfront adult only infinity pool with bar service, an indoor pool with cascading water features, two outdoor oceanfront pools including a children's pool, a 17th floor ocean view fitness center, and a Game Room. Guests can enjoy a specialty cocktail at Ultra Martini Lounge, or dine poolside for breakfast, lunch or dinner at Tortugas Café & Tiki Bar.Accommodations feature private balconies with city views or ocean views, jetted tubs in suites, cable TV with premium channels, DVD players, free Wi-Fi and in-room safes. Ocean Beach Club also offers laundry facilities onsite, a concierge to plan excursions and a Business Center. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Booking.com, Travelocity, Expedia, TripOnline SA, Priceline, Odigeo and Hotels.com so you can book your Ocean Beach Club reservations with confidence.

Naples contractors named in U.S. Top 50
In a hard hit construction industry when many businesses have closed their doors, contractors are finding unique ways to keep their doors open and in fact continue growing.
The state's construction industry has been the majority of the state's job losses accounting for 50 percent of the 353,900 lost jobs. Some of those jobs are coming back but it seems to be the slowest recovering industry according to recent reports.
Recently, Hanley Wood, a national construction media company, named a Naples contractor as one of its Top 50 contractor choices, a surprising choice consider the state's construction job losses. Naples, Fla. contractor Kelly Roofing earned recognition in the Business Savvy category.
Each year Hanley Wood creates a list it calls The Big 50 identifying the top contractors in the country. There are more than 900,000 contractors in the U.S. from specialized businesses like plumbing and heating and air to general construction. Each nominee must provide a three year list of past customers, and every customer is contacted in order to rank nominees.
"Initially it was a little bit of a shock, because it is such an honor. I never thought that us as a small town roofing company in Naples, Florida we would hit the national radar with something so big," said Ken Kelly owner of Kelly Roofing.
Hanley Wood conducted a nearly year-long investigation on the Top 50 nominees. Brandi McElhaney, organizer of the International Roofing Expo, nominated Kelly Roofing after hearing Kelly speak at last year's expo as an expert on green roofing initiatives.
Many contractors in all sectors of the construction industry have begun including green initiatives in their marketing and business plans in an effort to keep up with future technology. Kelly Roofing added solar panels to its list of services following suit.
Recent news reports show the jobless rate is lower than last quarter, and Kelly said he has noticed a slight increase in business over last year as well.

Robin Van Persie pulled a Jose Calderon today before the Manchester United striker's team took on Arsenal at Emirates Stadium Sunday. The former captain for Arsenal arrived at the stadium and gave a few hugs to some old mates, and then headed for what he thought was his locker room. However, he was mistaken as he actually headed for the Arsenal lockers. The phenomenal striker knew he messed up and even gave his head a little pat in acknowledgement of the gaffe.

(ci. 2426s 4 Claims.
This invention relates to an elevator.
An object ofthe invention is to provide an elevator particularly adapted 'for handling a plurality of strings of pipe or tubing while simultaneously makingr up or breaking out thestrings, in lowering the same into or withdrawing .the same from a well.
Another object of the invention is to provide, in an elevator, a novel 'slip jaw assembly for engaging and supporting a plurality 'of strings of pipe or tubing,
The invention also embodies novel means for actuating the slip jaws into active Ior inactive positions. Y
With the above and YVother objects 'in view the invention has particular relation to certain novel features of Construction, 'operation and arrangement Vo'i parts, an example of which is given in this specification and illustrated in the .accompanying drawings, 'wl'i'erein-Y y Figure 1 'shows a planV view of the elevator shown partly in section.
Figure 2 shows a vertical, sectional view taken on the line 2-2 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 shows a vertical, sectional viewtaken on the line 3-3 'of Figure 1, and
Figure 4 `shows a fragmentary, vertical, 'Sectional view 'taken 'on the line 4-''4 'of Figure Ll.
Referring 'now more particularly 'to the drawings, wherein like 'numerals "of re'ference "designate the same parts in 'each of 4-the figures, rthe numerals I and 2 designate complementary sections of the 'elevatory vloodywhichjare substantially similar in general'contour. At one-side *the section I is Vprovided with the upper and 'lower spaced hinge 'members 3, 4'van/d tted clo'sely'between the hinge members 3, 4 'there is 4a hinge 'member 5 ncarried bythe section 2. The :hinge members 3, 4, 5 have an aligned bearinglto vreceive the hinge bolt Shaving the ie'nlargedh'ea'd 1 on its upper end and whose lower'endlisthreaded to receive the retaining nut 8. A hinge `between the sections, I, 2 is `thus formed. l g

The bails II, 18 are provided for engagement with the hook of the 'conventional travelling block which is operable in the derrick by the appliances commonly used for such purposes.
lThe body sections ilan'd 2., at .their Vupper and lower ends, have the opposing complemental inwardlylext'ending Aanges 21, 128 a'nd 29, .30 as more 'accurately shown .in Eigures 3 and 4.

plings and the upper sections of the stringsare unscrewed from the couplings so as to be laid aside. While the upper sections of the tubing are being unscrewed the slip jaws 38, 39 should be moved upwardly and outwardly on their seats in the elevator body so as to release the tubing. Means have been provided for so moving said slip jaws which will now be described.
Mounted to rotate on the vertical pivot pins I, 52 are the grip members or handles 53, 54 whose inner ends are fitted through the transverse slots 55, 56 of the body sections I and 2. 'I'he inner ends of these handles are disc-like in form and have the arcuate cams 51, 58 on their upper faces. The slip jaws 3B, 39 have the eX- ternal recesses 59, B0 into which the inner ends of the handles project as shown more clearly in Figure 4 and depending into the recesses 59, 60 and bearing against the cams 51, 58 are the bosses 6I, 62 whose lower ends are rounded oil and ride on the cam faces 51, 58. The operator may swing the grip members 53, 54 toward each other in the direction indicated by the arrows in Figure 1 causing the cam faces to act through the bosses 6I, 62 and elevate the slip-jaws causing them to move upwardly and outwardly so as to release the tubing.
When the upper sections of the tubing have been unscrewed from the string beneath they may be swung to one side and with the jaws in said released position the operator may then withdraw the pin I2 permitting the elevators to swing open and release the pipe and the elevator may then be lowered and engaged about the upper end of the string beneath for the purpose of again elevating the string as before. the elevator has been engaged about the tubing the grips 53, 54 may again be swung about toward each other so as to elevate the slip jaws to permit the elevator sections to be closed about the tubing with the slip jaws out of engagement with the tubing so that the pin I2 may be easily inserted through the aligned bearings of the lugs 9, IB, II and thereupon the grips 53, 54 may be swung apart into the position shown in Figure 1 to permit the jaws to move downwardly and inwardly into their lower position and into engagement with the tubing. It will thus be seen that provision is made -for moving the slip jaws upwardly and outwardly in the elevator body out of contact or engagement withthe tubing when it is desired to withdraw the pin I2 or to insert it so that the bearings throughthe lugs 9, ID, II may easily' be brought into alignment to permit withdrawal or insertion of the pin I2 without binding.
It is obvious that the elevator may be manipulated in a similar manner to that above described while making up the tubing and lowering the string into the well.
It may be here noted that the sections I and 2 are provided with grips 63, 63 and 64, 54 for easy handling of the elevator in carrying on the work for which it is intended.
These slips are engaged about the strings of tubing beneath tubing cougether at one side, means for releasably securing the sections together at the other side, said body having an inside, downwardly converging seat, complemental slip jaws having external recesses and depending bosses therein and shaped, externally, to conform to the contour of and to fit on said seat and whose facing sides are shaped to t around and simultaneously grip a plurality of strings of tubing and manually operable means mounted in the body and working in the recesses against the bosses whereby the jaws may be moved upwardly and outwardly.

Pickling Is the Easiest Way to Preserve Big Flavors for a Thin Season
Since brine is often just as delicious as the veggies it cured, forager Marie Viljoen uses pickling liquid in cocktails with everything from vodka to gin.
Since brine is often just as delicious as the veggies it cured, forager Marie Viljoen uses pickling liquid in cocktails with everything from vodka to gin.
In foraging terms, May is super-charged. Plants are falling over one another to pop out of the ground. Some of the best-tasting wild edible plants can be spotted all over the city within the next four weeks.
The vegetable in plain sight.
A booze bath turns last summer's fruit haul into a warm winter infusion.
These wild berries are invasive, abundant and exquisite to eat.
One nickname, two plants, endless recipes.
Day lilies are fair game—and fine fare.
Noxious but nice, this invasive is delectable with dairy.
Captured in cordials, souvenirs of summer can warm chilly nights.
Deprivation. That is what eating seasonally means. It means that in high summer you do not eat an apple. You walk right on by that crackling green Granny Smith that lurks year round in the grocery store bins. Because it didn't come from around here. It means that in January you do not buy those stackable plastic boxes of raspberries (sometimes I cheat; I do), and it means that tomatoes are not the pink slices in silly salads or the vine-grown California ones in February, but the ripe, fat, sweet and bursting Brandywines of August.
Chances are, there is an oyster mushroom nearer to you than you think
It ain't over till it's over, sister. There is still gardening to be done. September has been weird, in terms of weather. And who…

State of Decay - Luring Zombies Gameplay Video
Maya lures zombies into an army checkpoint.
by Aaron Sampson on
Did you enjoy this video?Sign In to Upvote
For just being an arcade game this game is fun and even alittle addicting. It has alot of faults yes. But still a fun game worth the 20 bucks. Hopefully it will get upgraded and get some good DLC. My people leaving and having to be saved every 5 seconds is the most annoying thing in this game if u ask me.. But still a fun game.
I rather see DayZ come out on console than this; just sayin'. :(
Is this a PS2/Xbox game ? Looks chopy and .... very how to say it .... Generic?
I really like this game as is but I would like to see it a AAA game. I would change the way you search for items, make it less arcade and more like Fall Out/ Skyrim where there is individual items. Add stat bars like Hunger, Thirst, Sleep, Damage on individual limbs, Fuel for vehicles. More in-depth upgrading/fortifying on vehicles (being able to weld bars to grill of car) and houses/bases. Add some true dialog response options. So in a Nut Shell a bad ass RPG zombie survival game!!!! Then I would be in heaven!!! Ohh and change the fighting mechanics of course, less Arcade like and more real like!!
Imagining the zombies as Occupy protesters makes it even funnier.
@Joe_sc23DayZ is coming out for PS4 after the PC release but it isn't coming out for the XBONE bc of M$ indie-unfriendly policies.
@QuadThumbs So in other words, this game aint that good
@BravoOneActual ha occupy protesters do remind me of zombies; smelly, dirty, hipsters.
@BravoOneActual Fuck you patriotic bitch.
@B_STATS Ignore him, he's been brainwashed by Uncle Sam, his family is filthy rich, or he's just a troll.
@2sink oh, please. Those protesters need to get off their lazy, dirty asses and get a freakin' job. They do nothing by stinking up our sidewalks protesting things they know nothing about. The majority of them are just lazy.
Yup just another brain washed troll, if u were a real man you'd fight for what is right for everyone too and not just what your told; you gotta wonder sometimes about these type, they'd be the closest thing to real life zombies; brain dead, following orders and questioning nothing!

Wow, that is the coolest things I've seen in a while. So imaginative. I hope the school does not go overboard on its new scale parameters. Give room for the kids to think big, please!
Where's the horse now? Would be fun to see.

I'm quite the Earth-friendly dude. I go out of my way to recycle, unplug dormant appliances and push for carpools when the occassion calls for it. But I know what's practical and right, too, meaning: I'm still prone to mock those in Smart Cars. It's why I have to put K-State on blast right here and now. The video below is about as embarrassing as it gets from a PR standpoint. The 45-second promo for a cleaner Kansas reeks a total absence of self-awareness. It's something out of 1984. You know, if we gave a whip about the environment in 1984.
You can see EcoKat's costume from the still in the video frame. Looks like something out of Borzello's closet, minutes the superhero-style gloves, of course.
Here's more about the genesis of this project, which is necessary and positive, but totally tease-able on the surface. Then again, if it wasn't so cheesy and over-the-top, I'm not writing about it. Well-played, K-State. Additionally, I don't see how the hairspray keeping EcoKat's look in tact is good for Mother Earth. Makes me long for the return of Greenzo.

Since 2012 I own my BMW x5 . I got it new ,Other then free regular service I had never had any problem with the car, it's fun to drive , the navigation system needs improvment ,
Great exceleration,comfortable seats ,reliable ,
The navigation system is not comfortable to use , I'm using the Waze instead, Most likely the service department at BMW OF BAYSIDE NY will not have a loaner car to give you when you are coming for service
2012 BMW X5 SUV xDrive35i Sport Activity 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)
On the highway, in the passing lane�.this is where the BMW X5 sets itself apart.
It holds the lane so well and it WANTSto go fast.
It is so comfortable on a long trip home from the ski slopes, you look at other vehicles that you pass from the far left lane and think to yourself�"Gosh, I'm sorry you're not driving this"
Its not about the emblem, its about the strength and soul under the hood. This all sounds a bit melodramatic, but see for yourself�compare an X5 to a Lexus GX�it is no contest.
Strong acceleration reminds me of a 747 taking off.
Holds lane tight. Really like the iDrive control knob and iPod interface.
Easy and more safe to use than a touch screen.
Steering at low speeds could be a little easier.
Let me provide you with the list of problems i faced one after the other.
1. Dashboard failed within 3 months.
2.State inspection failed within 12 months, tires gone and no support from BMW. Very poor customer care.
3. Door from driver side failed, wouldn't work with keyless entry.
4. Here comes the worst one, engine malfunction. God saved my life on a highway where my X5 suddenly gave this error message on dashboard screen and stopped suddenly on highway, where 2 big trailers were just behind me. Very scarey.
5. Low battery message in just 16 months.
Good sounds system, nice interior and I love the wipers.
Need to work hard on customer care. Very arrogant and rude people handling that part of BMW. Never expected and would never buy this brand again. Would not recommend to any of my friends and family.
I love the way this car drives but after 10,000 miles it broke down on the side of the road.
It was a fuel pump issue which I've heard has been a consistent issue with the X5. My friend said they are replacing it with the same fuel pumps so she ended up having it happen again and got rid of her car.
I also opted to put a hitch on aftermarket but beware it may cause serious problems with your lease return since they have to actually break off a piece of the bumber to put it on so you would get dinged when turning in the lease. I opted to use the tow clips with a BMW bike rack which carries 2 bikes (can opt for a 3rd tray but it would be tight) and it's a fantastic bike rack.
Extra large sunroof makes it open and airy.
Loved the fact that my Blackberry was compatible with the office system and my emails come up but Iphone is not.
Boo hoo. They can't keep up with which phones are really compatible and BMW is behind the curve so beware of this fact.
They told me BMW's love Iphones but my Blackberry had better compatability.
If you notice that you are getting horrible gas mileage from the start and your fuel indicator won't go all the way to the right when completely full it will probably be the fuel pump. I noticed this changed when they replaced it and I figure BMW owes me about $1,000 in gas!
Very pleased with the car so far after 2 weeks. Switched from a 2010 Range Rover Sport with the 5.0 V8 but the car is just as fast - different power delivery. Fuel economy in a different league.
Ride quality is much better than the RRS both on 20" wheels.
Handling is much more sedan than SUV. Convenience features on the BMW are leagues ahead of the RRS. Electronics are so much better thought out and things like the power lift tailgate etc make a big difference when you have a small one.
Last BMW was a diesel X5 in the UK ten years ago, was one of the best cars I've ever had.
Mine is actually a 2013 model not that there are any changes.
Handling, and the iDrive/Navigation set up. Power/fuel economy trade off in 3.0 litre six is pretty much spot on.
Would have bought the diesel if there were more diesel gas stations in the NYC area.
I paid extra for the sound upgrade package and it doesn't sound as good as you'd imagine a 600 watt system should.
Car is getting long in the tooth now, so guess they won't make any changes until supposed new car for 2014.
Says a great deal that we still selected it over the brand new Mercedes ML.

On March 31st, 1985, the WWF took their biggest gamble ever: Wrestlemania 1. If it failed, chances are the company would have gone out of business. Despite what WWE wants their fans to presume, there was a "Grand Daddy Of Them All" before Wrestlemania called Starrcade. It was a Jim Crockett Promotions' pay-per-view to blow off the biggest feuds in the company. In contrast to Starrcade, the WWF
Hi EWN peeps!
djdylanmanov here back with my second blog, this two-part blog I will be focusing on the strength of having the fans invest emotionally into a feud with a slow build.
Particularly I want to pen my opinion to the unique way the WWE have built some recent headline Wrestlemania feuds and dovetailing feuds from year(s) gone by with a fresh new challenger.
I will start

As if it could not already be stated enough, John Cena is this generations Hulk Hogan. Wins most of his matches, sells the most merchandise in the company, and is the "Poster-Boy" of the company.
How Cena and Hogan Came To Be
In January of 1984 at Madison Square Garden, Hulk Hogan knocked off The Iron Sheik to become the then WWF Champion. Afterward, the world was

I know it's a little early for predictions but I think one of the headlining matches will be WWE Hall of Famer "Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs The Rock. Here are some reasons why:
It would be the ten year anniversary of their match in 2003 at Wrestlemania 19.It was Austin's last match and he can't have his last match as a loss. I think that would kill him inside, letting

Hello folks, a quick introduction to my blog (which hopefully if goes well, will be the first of many...or drop of the face of the earth if not). This is an extended 'What If...?' blog were I take a moment or incident in WWF history and if things went slightly different, how would they possibly play out. It's a little bit of fantasy but I do try and keep realistic to what was going on at the time.
Hello everyone! I am back with another blog. This time, a blog about the 40 Greatest Superstars in Wrestlemania History.
We all think of Wrestlemania as the biggest event of the year. The time where the feuds are better than the rest of the year and the event where the matches and the moments will be remembered and go down in history.
But which Superstars have been the
As some of you may rememberback t Bragging Rights of 2010 The Undertaker had a buried alive match with kane for the World Heavyweight Title. At that time the group known as the Nexus was running around WWE beating the living hell out of whoever they wanted
.Now at the end of the match the Nexus came ot and attacked The Undertaker to help Kane get the win. This leaves only one question.
Hello one and all. Usually, Wrestlemania match cards start circulating around January. I for one, love creating match cards, and with 3 main events already rumored, I knew I'd make a blog on the subject. Some of the rumored matches (Brock/Austin, Punk/Austin, and Taker/Cena), I've kept the same, while others I've changed. Thanks for reading.
Main Event #1: John Cena vs. The Undertaker

ATLANTA (AP)—Steve Mason always wondered how it would feel to earn his first NHL shutout.
After Columbus' rookie goalie did it with a 15-save effort, the whole experience felt a bit strange.
"Overall, it was a pretty simple game, and the only hard part was staying focused," Mason said. "You try not to think about it, but obviously during the third period, it's on your mind when there are no goals up on the board."
Rick Nash extended his goal streak to five games, knocking in a backhander in the first period that helped the Columbus Blue Jackets to a 2-0 victory over the sluggish Atlanta Thrashers on Saturday night.
Nash scored his 10th goal of the season and was credited with his ninth assist when R.J. Umberger added his eighth goal, an empty-netter, with 1:18 remaining. Nash, who has 12 points in nine games, praised Mason even though the rookie was rarely challenged.
"It was nice to keep the shot count down," Nash said. "It was great, especially against a team like that with (Ilya) Kovalchuk and (Slava) Kozlov. He shut them down."
The Blue Jackets, coming off a 7-2 home loss to Edmonton on Tuesday, won for the first time in three games but are 5-2-1 in their last eight.
Atlanta has lost three straight after a five-game winning streak.
Outshot by a combined 72-29 in the first and second periods of the last three games, the Thrashers created few problems for Mason, who made six saves in the third.
"It's tough holding a one-goal lead for the majority of the game," Mason said. "The defensemen did a great job of blocking shots and making sure I could see the puck. They made it easy for me."
Columbus' Raffi Torres, who missed the first 11 games due to knee and shoulder injuries, had his first goal of the season voided when replay showed he kicked disallowed his tally 5:06 into the second period.
Mason improved to 4-1-1 as Blue Jackets coach Ken Hitchcock rested Pascal Leclaire after the seven-goal game against Edmonton.
He faced just one shot from Ilya Kovalchuk, who has scored six goals on 51 shots. Kovalchuk is the only NHL player with at least 40 goals in each of the last four seasons.
Atlanta goalie Ondrej Pavelec made 29 saves but fell to 2-2.
Thrashers defenseman Garnet Exelby bruised his forehead during a second-period fight with Columbus forward Jared Boll.
"We can't come out flat and try to make up in the third," Exelby said. "We need to come out hungry to play in the first and not get too far behind. We were riding high after winning five straight. This brings us back to harsh reality."
Atlanta found no answers against Columbus' defense, bottoming out during a power play that extended into the first 1:02 of the third, a span in which the Blue Jackets outshot the Thrashers 3-0.
"We are going to be in big trouble by Christmas, for the playoff picture, if we keep this up," Exelby said. "Each and every one of us has to keep each one other accountable. It's not just a turnover or a missed play. You're letting your teammate down. We need to realize that we are playing for each other."
Thrashers C Todd White played 22 shifts. He was helped off the ice Thursday and didn't return after getting checked headfirst into the boards during a 3-2 home loss to Pittsburgh. … Columbus improved to 9-2 when scoring first. The Blue Jackets are 0-6-3 when opponents score first. … The fewest shots allowed by the Blue Jackets is 14, set in a loss to Colorado on Jan. 10, 2001, and matched last Jan. 19 in a 3-1 loss at Dallas. … It marked the fewest shots recorded by Atlanta since March 14, when the Thrashers had 12 in a 4-1 loss at Washington.
