Silva does have a bit of a puncher's chance but very small. I'm not even sure if Silva could knock him out with a full force punch to the jaw, may have to get a couple in a row. A prime Silva vs. a raw Jones could probably beat him, but I don't think there is any more than a small possibility that Silva could beat him now.
Silva in his prime vs. a natural weight class Jones I'm not so sure of though. And by natural weight class I mean either Silva as his natural weight at LHW or Jones at MW.

Early Days with Thich Nhat Hanh
Like many thousands of others around the world, I have had Thich Nhat Hanh close in my thoughts this past week. Along with so many, I breathed with some relief when I read Sunday's report from his community in Plum Village that his condition, following his brain hemorrhage, seems to have stabilized, and while his condition remains critical, there is reason for cautious optimism about the possibility of a full recovery.

What Was Mindfulness?
With headlines like "Gentrifying the dharma: How the 1% is hijacking mindfulness" and "Rebel posturing and 'mindfulness training' can't cover up tech world's awful labor standards" on Facebook courtesy of Salon.com, suddenly American Buddhists find themselves pushed to one side or the other of an age-old debate. Should the sacred life show secular benefits, or should spirituality be essentially an "inside job"? More »

Thich Nhat Hanh Hospitalized for Severe Brain Hemorrhage
[UPDATES BELOW] Plum Village Mindfulness Practice Centres announced yesterday that Vietnamese Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh (affectionately known by his students as "Thay"), had suffered a severe brain hemmorrhage on November 11. Thay is currently under intensive care in Bordeaux, France. He is reportedly exhibiting signs that a full recovery may be possible. More »

Don't Just Sit There, Do Something
Ever since Western converts began adopting Buddhist traditions, their community has sought a balance between the quest for personal peace and tranquility and the sense of social engagement that has sometimes expressed itself, most recently on the streets of Ferguson, Missouri, with the well-worn activists' phrase No justice, no peace.

Five Questions for Sarah Ruhl
Award-winning playwright Sarah Ruhl's latest work, The Oldest Boy, tells the story of an American boy's selection as a tulku, a reincarnated lama of the Tibetan Buddhist tradition. When monks arrive and ask to take the child away for training in India, his American mother (Tony Award nominee Celia Keenan-Bolger) and Tibetan father (James Yaegashi) must make the most difficult decision of their lives. Directed by Rebecca Taichman, The Oldest Boy is running at Lincoln Center in New York City until December 28, 2014. The Lincoln Center Theater Review posed five questions to its writer, Sarah Ruhl:1. How did a Catholic white girl from Illinois come to write about Tibetan Buddhism? More »

Bringing It All Back Home
Sometimes people ask me if there isn't a conflict between the Mahayana instruction to see all beings as close relatives, worthy of our affection and compassion, and Buddhist teachings on nonattachment. Perhaps they are thinking of Jetsun Milarepa's words: When you look at your child Firstly he is a soft-spoken young god.Then he is a distant-hearted neighbour.Finally he is an enemy and creditor.So I let go of children.

But for a Moment
Less than a month ago the Tricycle editors received a note from a young man named Asher Lipson. It began: "My name is Asher Lipson, I am 24 years old, and I have stage 4 cancer, a rare sarcoma that has spread to my lungs and brain. I was diagnosed just after graduating from college at the beginning of 2013. My oncologist has told me to carefully prioritize the things I want to do for the next year, because I may well die within that space of time." Asher told us of his spiritual journey, one that included Judaism, Catholicism, Unitarian Universalism, and ultimately, Buddhism. He wanted to know whether we would be interested in publishing his writing. Before we could get back to him, Asher passed away. But we had been moved by his words. More »

Not Two
At 6 a.m., my teacher strikes the singing bowl. The tone spirals out, becomes hollow. At the center of a room emptied of sound, we sit cross-legged, facing a brick wall. Slowly the mind quiets, the breath deepens; the sounds from outside seep through the bricks—a jogger, two kids laughing and arguing their way to the bus stop, an ambulance, a helicopter. Right now there is no text, no prayer, no millennia of continuity, no God inspecting my deeds. There is my teacher and there is me, sinking below the turbulence in which I had swum for four decades. When my teacher strikes the bowl again, it jars me back to the surface. As the sound once again spools out—my lungs are open, my head is clear, and my knees ache. With silence and stillness, another day begins. More »

A Pilgrimage Among Friends
Chances are you have never heard of the Kumbh Mela. Any coverage of the event on Western television is usually given short shrift, the name translated with a shrug as "The Festival of the Pot." A crowd shot, and some mention of how many people attended, given in millions. Indians themselves record the numbers in lakh or chror—for in a country of over a billion people isn't it more useful to count in multiples of a hundred thousand or ten million? On the television screen you might see ten seconds of local color: hoards of Naga Babas, warrior ascetics with streaming dreadlocks, storming into the waters clad only in marigolds and ashes. And you think, "How exotic!" but you can have no notion of the event itself. More »

The Chimera of Human Advancement
In The Zen Teachings of Homeless Kodo, three generations of dharma teachers grapple with the social and technological changes they witnessed in Japan over the course of their respective lifetimes. Kodo Sawaki, the eponymous "Homeless Kodo," first brought Soto Zen Buddhism out of the monasteries and into the streets during the early 1900s. His dharma heir, Kosho Uchiyama, continued this tradition during the latter half of that century. Now Shohaku Okamura, the title's translator and last commentator, applies the wisdom of his forebears to our present day.—Ed.Kodo Sawaki: After all our efforts, racking our brains as intensely as possible, we have come to a deadlock. Human beings are idiots. We set ourselves up as wise and then do foolish things. In spite of our scientific advancement, we haven't yet achieved greatness of character. What's the reason for this?

Joshu's Dog
A monk asked Joshu, "Does a dog have buddhanature or not?" Joshu replied, "Mu." Commentary: Dog in the backyard, lifetimes upon lifetimes spent shuttling between the bright sun of the deck and the smelly shade of the propane tank. But there is no door into the cool of the restful kitchen, and no one need open it. Upon realizing this, a dog passes naturally through the Gateless Gate.John House is a Tricycle contributing editor.

Walking on Sacred Ground
The insert for Kesang Marstrand's latest album, Karma Khyeno, could easily be mistaken for a chant book. Replete with full-length Tibetan prayers in both their original and translation, the booklet includes a dedication not to Marstrand's parents or musical influences, but to the leader of the Kagyu sect of Tibetan Buddhism, His Holiness the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje. An inscription wishes for His Holiness's "health and long life, and the fulfillment of all his great aspirations and noble activities." This is not, to say the least, your standard name drop. Careful readers will also descry a short metta prayer directly above the track listings: "May all beings have happiness and the causes of happiness. May all beings be free from suffering and the causes of suffering." More »

Taking The Dog For A Walk
This is the best time of year for dog walking. Fall's crunchy leaves, the sunset hues, those golden hours. My dog Sugar and I walk a circuit of the cross-country trail, past some chestnut trees, a bumper crop having a mast year, and she stops at the stand of them and sniffs the spiny shells of the fallen ones and gets more interested in a pile of fresh deer poop and I'm daydreaming about how I'm going to write a book about small moments like this one and it's going to be so beautiful and then—doggone it—she's rolling in the poop and I'm pulled out of my headspace and yanking on the leash yelling, "NO POOP!"

Don't Believe the Hype
Last May, an article about mindfulness on a popular mainstream news website finally spurred neuroscientist and meditation researcher Catherine Kerr to act. The article cited 20 benefits of meditation, from "reducing loneliness" to "increasing grey matter" to "helping sleep," and painted a picture of meditation as a kind of golden elixir for modern life. Kerr posted the article on her Facebook page. "It is not like any of this is grossly inaccurate," she wrote in her post. "It is just that the studies are too cherry-picked and too positive." More »

People's Climate March
"I know that my path to enlightenment will only come from being connected to the world around me," Njeri Matheu, a member of Brooklyn Zen Center, explained as she marched through the streets of midtown Manhattan. "It's not just about being centered inside; it's about being connected to your world." Around her, an estimated 700 other Buddhists belonging to over 35 Buddhist organizations held signs and banners with environmental slogans as they walked, keeping rhythm with meditation bells. This Buddhist contingent contributed to the estimated 400,000 protesters who participated People's Climate March, the largest march of its kind in history, on September 21. More »

The Suffering of Addiction
Buddhist teacher Noah Levine's punk rocker past, social advocacy, and straight-talking, subversive books like Dharma Punx and Against the Stream have earned him an avid following among the young and disaffected. Now he can add a subset of Buddhists who, like Noah, are in recovery from alcohol and drug abuse. A fan of the Twelve Step program but not of its God-centered rhetoric, Noah put together an alternative, Refuge Recovery. Firmly grounded in the four noble truths and the eightfold path, Refuge draws on the best of Buddhism and Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). More »

Mindfulness at Moonshine Hollow
The locals call it Moonshine Hollow, or Mooner's Hollow, partly because of the haunting character of the moonlight in this small, isolated valley. It forces you to pay attention to the thousand shades of shadow and light you'd never thought to distinguish before. The phenomenon has something to do with the curvature of the ravine here, as light reflects off stone cliffs above and the lithe, white limbs of sycamore trees below. Whatever accounts for it, Moonshine Hollow is well named. More »

The -ja after csalad makes it the thing that is possessed, therefore I am guessing the word before it might be a family name = family of ??. Sorry I don't know how to put the diacritics on.
You angel, Greta! Thanks so much. I think the word is a possessive form of Janos - Hungarian version of Ivan. Don't know why it didn't occur to me that he would use that rather than Ivan since he was writing in Hungarian. You're the elf of the day! (or angel if you prefer)ReplyDelete

Search is one of the most requested features for Google Reader. Until this feature is implemented, there's a simple workaround: you can use Google Co-op to create a search engine restricted only to the sites you're subscribed to. Here's how to do this:
1. Go to this page that shows your list of subscriptions (in OPML format) and save it to your desktop.
2. Create a search engine at Google Co-op. Enter a name, a description, a bogus keyword (like "blogs"), a bogus site in the list of sites to search (like "www.example.com"). Click "Next" and then "Finish".
3. Now click on "control panel" next to the search engine you've just created. Select "Advanced" and upload the file downloaded from Google Reader in the annotations section.
4. (Optional) To access your search engine, you have more options:
* Integrate it into Google Reader using a Greasemonkey script
* Go to "Code" section and copy some code you can add to your site or add a gadget to Google Personalized Homepage.
* Go to "Preview" section and bookmark the homepage of your search engine.
* You can also go to the homepage of your custom search engine, right-click on the search box and add the search engine to your browser (for example: if you have Google Toolbar, right-click and select "Generate custom search"; if you use Opera, select "Create search").
You can use this to search the sites from any OPML file (most feed readers have an option to export the subscribed feeds to OPML). Of course, if you add or remove feeds, you need to reupload the OPML to Google Co-op to keep the search engine in sync.
Update (Sept. 2007): Google Reader added search.

Manti Te'o "Dead Girlfriend" story ALLEGEDLY a Hoax
Takes like 15 minutes to read and fully digest and I know we have some short attention spans on here, but at least try to comprehend the whole story before commenting upon it.
Notre Dame's Manti Te'o, the stories said, played this season under a terrible burden. A Mormon linebacker who led his Catholic school's football program back to glory, Te'o was whipsawed between personal tragedies along the way. In the span of six hours in September, as Sports Illustrated told it, Te'o learned first of the death of his grandmother, Annette Santiago, and then of the death of his girlfriend, Lennay Kekua.
Kekua, 22 years old, had been in a serious car accident in California, and then had been diagnosed with leukemia. SI's Pete Thamel described how Te'o would phone her in her hospital room and stay on the line with her as he slept through the night. "Her relatives told him that at her lowest points, as she fought to emerge from a coma, her breathing rate would increase at the sound of his voice," Thamel wrote.
Upon receiving the news of the two deaths, Te'o went out and led the Fighting Irish to a 20-3 upset of Michigan State, racking up 12 tackles. It was heartbreaking and inspirational. Te'o would appear on ESPN's College GameDay to talk about the letters Kekua had written him during her illness. He would send a heartfelt letter to the parents of a sick child, discussing his experience with disease and grief. The South Bend Tribune wrote an article describing the young couple's fairytale meetingshe, a Stanford student; he, a Notre Dame starafter a football game outside Palo Alto.
Did you enjoy the uplifiting story, the tale of a man who responded to adversity by becoming one of the top players of the game? If so, stop reading.
Manti Te'o did lose his grandmother this past fall. Annette Santiago died on Sept. 11, 2012, at the age of 72, according to Social Security Administration records in Nexis. But there is no SSA record there of the death of Lennay Marie Kekua, that day or any other. Her passing, recounted so many times in the national media, produces no obituary or funeral announcement in Nexis, and no mention in the Stanford student newspaper.
Nor is there any report of a severe auto accident involving a Lennay Kekua. Background checks turn up nothing. The Stanford registrar's office has no record that a Lennay Kekua ever enrolled. There is no record of her birth in the news. Outside of a few Twitter and Instagram accounts, there's no online evidence that Lennay Kekua ever existed.
The photographs identified as Kekuain online tributes and on TV news reportsare pictures from the social-media accounts of a 22-year-old California woman who is not named Lennay Kekua. She is not a Stanford graduate; she has not been in a severe car accident; and she does not have leukemia. And she has never met Manti Te'o...
Re: Manti Te'o "Dead Girlfriend" story ALLEGEDLY a Hoax
When ESPN announced the news, I was just shocked. I had so much respect for him, and to (think) he overcame what he did, it was inspiring. But now the news is released, I immediately have lost all respect for Manti. All. That may sound harsh, but you don't just get involved in something like this on accident. This will change how anyone looks at him as man, and quite frankly, disappoints me. I am one of the biggest supporters of the great sport of football, but this makes me wanna puke and question the ethic of the game. This disgraces me. And what this will do to his draft stock. He probably just lost a good round, two, or possibly three in the draft if teams take this as negatively as they really should. He may have talent, but I question every single bit of his character now. Of all people, you wouldn't expect someone like Manti Te'o to fall victim (or create) a hoax of this degree and make it such a public matter. I pulled for Manti and the Irish all year, but this puts me over the top. If people are gonna pull stuff like this and expect it to go unseen and unnoticed, they better think again. This disgraces himself, the fans, his fellow teammates, his coaches, the University of Notre Dame, College football, and the game itself.

Re: Manti Te'o "Dead Girlfriend" story ALLEGEDLY a Hoax
The story makes me angrier by the minute as Te'o is now clearly just lying even more; ND and Te'o claim to have known of the hoax by Dec 26th with Manti being a "victim".
Yet the dude was answering questions about her around the time of NC game.
What a POS. Phony on the field and off the field.

Re: Manti Te'o "Dead Girlfriend" story ALLEGEDLY a Hoax
I have no idea what Te'o is like as a football player, but seeing that even his parents were claiming this girl had visited them in Hawaii, you can tell he wasn't raised properly - and he grew up to be even worse. It's said that what appears to be a talented player on the field [citation needed] will be tainted for the rest of his career for something this stupid.

Re: Manti Te'o "Dead Girlfriend" story ALLEGEDLY a Hoax
Before the interview last night, it was my opinion that Teo created the hoax for attention. But I thought he explained himself well enough last night to that reporter for me to not think that anymore. I'm starting to think not that he was catfished. He actually thought he had a girlfriend, only for her to turn out to be fake.
He does admit to lying to his family and friends that she visited him. But he did this to save himself some embarrassment. Then once he found out that "she died", ESPN ran with that story and blew it up. Once that happened Teo had to continue his lie about meeting her to the entire media because he didn't want any embarrassment. Them once he found out she wasn't real he told ND. And I just think he didn't have the guts to tell the world the truth at that time. And I think he was still in a bit of disbelief.
It's just hard to wrap my head around being that emotionally involved with somebody and never meeting them. I've heard he was in this relationship for 3 years. That's just not normal. I don't know really what to think. It's certainly one of the strangest stories in sports I've ever heard.PM me for a stick strung!!

The leather also does not have the shiny appearance that is apparent in the photo on the website. The distressing on my boots also looks a little more intentional than it does in the picture.That being said, I actually saw these boots in person before I bought them so I did get what I expected. If you do have a FP location near you with a shoe selection, I suggest you check these boots out in person because they are quite different from the website. I have very slender calves and have trouble finding boots with the right circumference so I am happy with these boots in this regard. I am usually a size 9 but might've opted for a 9.5 had it been available. They're a little too snug for really thick socks but I can live with that. 1.14.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Nokehippie The black I ordered these boots in the black. I usually wear a 7.5 or 8. I ordered the 8 and they fit perfect. I loved the way they fit all the way up the leg. It's tighter then what it looks like on the model. The distressed look is wonderful on the feet, but have to say I was disappointed with the color on the rest of the boot. Instead of looking like natural distressed spots on the rest of it, it was very uniform and almost looked like cow spots. Sadly I returned them. 11.14.2012
Rated 1 out of 5Â by Briozing nothing like the photo i should have listened to the reviews and skipped this one. The leather does look as cheap as the reviewers before me stated. The inside has a plastic material so it would be impossible to comfortably wear these with bare legs. The fit is ok. I just mailed mine back today, and oh btw, the soles looked like someone before me tried them on and wore them around the house as they were scuffed and a bit dirty. I guess they didnt like them either. What a shame. I had high hopes. 4.22.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by NiJo Very happy Totally regret not getting the black while they were in stock; I could have had both colors for the original price of one! These are awesome leather boots for the sale price. I am picky with boot shape, and these are very flattering, especially at the ankle. They were a little stiff, but after a few wears they were fine. Unlike previous reviews, they were not tight for me, just stiff. I am a size 6.5 and opted for 7. My only negative would be about the distressing. It's done very poorly and looks very unnatural, like the previous reviews state. However, I bought them with that in mind. Easy fix. 6.24.2013
Rated 3 out of 5Â by sofifernandez86 different from the picture the leather is different from the leather on the picture, its stiffer and not as loose as it looks on the picture . in general they are ok , but again, leather is not the same as in the picture. 6.19.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by megangirvan Great buy! Bought the black - the worn look is not authentic but used the the kids shoe polish over the scuffed bits - worked a treat! Size is true and they're a little stiff but after wearing for a day they've softened and quite comfy. A little tight around the calves but not uncomfortable - I have medium sized muscular calves but I liked the looked as they fit snug but flare a little where studs are. Overall I'm happy $100 leather boots - I'm keen for the brown if they were in my size! 6.13.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by wwager Don't bother! I bought these boots in black. I ordered a half size up and have thin legs but these were still pretty snug on my calves. I couldn't wear socks with them. The toe curves up in an odd way which I don't like. But, the part I really can't live with...the leather looks like plastic. It's really low quality looking and the wear marks are not in any way natural looking. I actually thought I had gotten the wrong boots and had to check online to make sure these were what I ordered. I ordered another pair because with FP, sometimes the same items vary significantly but the second pair came- equally awful. They are definitely a return! I had such high hopes. 6.8.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by lstrakal182 Great Boots! When I saw these go on sale I had to have them! I got the brown in a 7 and they're my new favorite boots! They're great quality leather and very affordable. The only negative is they're snug around the calves. Mine stretched a little bit, but they're still pretty tight! Besides that, they are perfect in every way! 5.5.2013

CSI image enhancement: using evanescent waves to see the invisible
Those of you who read my writing regularly know that I love pretty pictures. From my perspective, pretty much every camera and imaging system in the world is disappointing, because, when you "enhance the image," you end up with a pixelated mess. I want to be able to zoom in and have details magically appear, dammit.
The problem is that the information required to enhance the image isn't actually in the image itself. So, how can you possible recreate those details when you don't have them in the first place? This is precisely what a group of researchers from Israel and Germany has done using something called coherent diffractive imaging. And, while this is probably never going to turn up in a real crime scene investigation, the industrial and scientific applications are going to keep me happy for at least 20 minutes.
Where are the details?
In every article I write about imaging, I yammer on extensively about the diffraction limit, and how it limits the image to features above a certain size. Now, although I can (and will, if I don't get a drink) go on about this at length, the crux is that light carries the image information in its spatial frequencies. If we were to illuminate a scene with a green laser, the scene appears green, but the spatial details are still there, carried by the amplitudes and directions (the spatial frequencies) that the green light is traveling when it hits the lens of your eye.

The lawsuit being filed by the Obama administration against S&P for their ratings of colateralized debt obligations is a perfect example of a tyrannical administration looking for scapegoats, and looking to score political points. It is a sad situation that in a country like ours that the legal system is used in the same way as that of communist countries……. to victimize others for political gain.
Obama, like all tyrants will use whatever power he has at his disposal to destroy our freedoms in order to implement his vision of fairness. He doesn't care about the results of his tyranny. He only cares that he believes it to be fair. Everything he talks about doing he always adds the word "fair" or some such word. He tries to sound so reasonable when he talks about stealing our freedoms, but closer analysis shows that Obama, like all tyrants is a smooth talker, but if you really listen to what he says, you will realize he is full of it, and full of himself.
His constant denegration of those he dislikes is an affront to the very system that created the greatest country on the planet – at least up to now, and until he gets done with it. This lawsuit is not an attempt to place blame for the housing meltdown, it is an attack on free market economics and our very freedoms.

When French airframer EADS Socata unveiled a souped-up version of its venerable TBM 700 single-engine turboprop in 2005, it billed the aircraft as the "anti-very light jet." Indeed, the TBM 850 will carry more payload, fly farther and typically complete a 500-mile trip about as quickly as a twinjet VLJ. It will also burn only about half the fuel and climb like a rocket.

The Citation V/Ultra is perhaps the best example of Cessna's well-honed ability to continually evolve a time-tested airframe into a market-leading workhorse. Based on the wildly popular Citation II, which entered production in 1977, the Ultra adds a slightly stretched fuselage, a plush interior, a more efficient high-speed wing, more powerful engines and updated avionics.

Hi Coders
I have a partioned drive which I download programs, web pages, etc.to . almost on a daily basis
This is done mostly through a program downloader (called DOWNLOADER) it automatically archives the programs etc into a dated folder ie 20/01/ 2008.
I leave these in the folders there in which they are archived in until they are needed.
What I want to be able to is to open the today's dated archived folder when I access the drive which there are on.
This hopefully would be be done from a shortcut from the desktop.
The coded program would have to locate the (today's)dated folder if it exists and if a today's dated folder doesn't exist open the drive as normal .
The date format is dd/mm/yyyy
Many thanks

Greg Smith's resignation letter to Goldman Sachs in this morning's New York Times is going to strike a lot of people as pure theater. And, in a sense, it is.
His tactic is straight out of Mad Men.
Don Draper wrote a similarly high profile, stand-taking letter, "Why I'm Quitting Tobacco."
It's the centerpiece of Episode 12 of Season 4, called "Blowing Smoke," in which Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce must come to grips with losing the Lucky Strike account.
And, Smith's timing couldn't have been better, since Mad Men returns to AMC on March 25.
Take a look at the letters side by side.
Here's Smith, explaining how he got to this point.
"After 12 years at the firm, first as a summer intern while at Stanford, then in New York for 10 years, and now in London, I believe I have worked here long enough to understand the trajectory of its culture, its people and its identity. And I can honestly say that the atmosphere here now is as toxic and destructive as I have ever seen it."
He goes on, "To put the problem in the simplest terms, the interests of the client continue to be sidelined in the way the firm operates and thinks about making money."
Here's how Draper launches his screed:
"For over 25 years, we devoted ourselves to peddling a product for which good work is irrelevant, because people can't stop themselves from buying it. A product that never improves, causes illness, and makes people unhappy. But there was money in it. A lot of money. In fact, our entire business depended on it."
Says Draper, "We knew it wasn't good for us, but we couldn't stop."
Smith, in his closing paragraphs, drops his resignation bomb. "Goldman Sachs today has become too much about shortcuts and not enough about achievement. It just doesn't feel right to me any more."
He adds: "People who only care about making money will not sustain this firm — or the trust of its clients — for very much longer."
Draper's denouement: "So as of today, Sterling Cooper Draper Price will no longer take tobacco accounts. We know it's going to be hard. If you're interested in cigarette work, here's a list of agencies that do it."
He concludes, "As for us, we welcome all other business because we know our best work is ahead of us."
The playwright Tom Stoppard says, "I think theater ought to be theatrical." And as it turns out, resigning from Goldman Sachs can be, too.

There are two constants to Jordan Schroeder's hockey career: Big-time expectations due to his talents and big-time judgments due to his size.
The big-time expectations began long before the Chicago Wolves center became the Vancouver Canucks' first-round pick in the 2009 NHL Entry draft. He became so swift and so skilled at such a young age, Schroeder had to play with older players in order to be challenged.
There was the highly anticipated Pee-Wee game near his boyhood home of Prior Lake, Minn., when he served as his team's best player and the other team had somebody just as good. The other team's player scored 4 goals, but Schroeder scored five to give his team the 5-4 win.
He was good enough to play varsity hockey in eighth grade, so he enrolled at St. Thomas Academy in Mendota Heights, Minn. Not only did he thrive academically at the all-boys, Catholic, military prep school, he led St. Thomas as a freshman to its first state title in 2006.
"It turned out to be a really good school for me," Schroeder said. "I grew up there. It teaches you all about leadership. That's where the military part comes into it. You have uniforms that you wear every day. There's certain parts of the school where there's the whole Army thing, but you're dressed in dress pants and a dress shirt and a tie usually every day.
"It was kind of fun because you didn't have to care about what you wore to school. People didn't judge you. Everyone was equal. You make close friends there and I still have close friends who I keep in touch with."
Schroeder left St. Thomas Academy after his freshman year because he earned a spot in the United States National Team Development Program in Ann Arbor, Mich., where he enjoyed more success on a bigger scale. With 7 goals and 20 assists spread over three World Junior Championships, Schroeder broke Jeremy Roenick's 21-year-old record for most career points by an American.
Schroeder also continued his accelerated academic pursuits while in Ann Arbor. He wanted to start playing in college a year early, so he spent the summer after his sophomore year taking a fistful of online classes via Brigham Young University.
"That wasn't a fun summer," Schroeder said with a smile. "I didn't do much. I did a lot of work, but it was worth it to me. I felt like since I was already in Ann Arbor and playing in a junior league, I was ready to make the step to college hockey. I didn't want to go to another school. It would have been my third high school."
Schroeder's academic discipline allowed him to enroll in the fall of 2008 at the University of Minnesota – his dream school – where he was the youngest player on the roster. Schroeder delivered 13 goals and 32 assists for the Gophers, which was 1 point away from the team lead.
Shortly thereafter, the Canucks made Schroeder their first pick in the 2009 NHL Entry draft. While that sounds like an incredible honor – and it was – Schroeder was projected to be gone long before the Canucks had the 22nd selection in the opening round.
What happened? This is where the big-time judgments – the other constant in Schroeder's hockey life – come into play. He was listed at 5-foot-8 and 178 pounds on draft day, which served as a yellow flag for some general managers.
"Yeah, I've pretty much heard it my entire life," Schroeder said. "It goes to show if you have enough heart and determination…look at the players around the league: (Martin) St. Louis, (Patrick) Kane, (Brian) Gionta, Ray Whitney, those type of players. Try and model your game after them. They've been successful.
"Size obviously is a big thing for the NHL," he continued. "If you don't have it, you have to use other skill sets. You have to be that much smarter, that much quicker out there."
And that's what Schroeder's season with the Wolves – his second full year as a professional – has been all about. When the Canucks sent him to the Wolves shortly before the season began, Vancouver coach Alain Vigneault offered these thoughts to reporters:
"Schroeder played much better than in last year's training camp," Vigneault said. "I liked the way he positioned himself away from the puck, how he handled that. His next step is to dominate in the AHL. When people ask who is one of the better two-way offensive players, his name has got to come up. If he intends to play at this level one day, that's the step he's got to make. He's not an overly big player, but he compensates with skill and speed."
Through April 4, Schroeder owned 19 goals, 22 assists and a +7 plus-minus rating while appearing in every game. While the numbers look good – and acknowledge his ability to move the puck and finish when necessary – the other parts of his game have improved even more.
"Big progress for him," said Wolves head coach Craig MacTavish. "Really has taken a nice step from where he was last year. Not just his offense, but also his general understanding of how to play the game on both sides of the puck. He's added a lot of work ethic to his game, a lot of reliability that maybe he didn't have last year. He's been one of our most consistent guys all year."
MacTavish and assistant coach Karl Taylor spent individual practice time with Schroeder working on the little things that can make all the difference for a 21-year-old phenom now listed at 5-9 and 177 pounds.
"I really tried to work on adding small pieces to my game, whether it's on the forecheck – getting that step quicker and using your stick at a different angle," Schroeder said. "You know, small things of the game that make a big difference. I think I've done a good job of that."
MacTavish, who played 17 seasons in the National Hockey League and coached for 11 more, doesn't put much importance on Schroeder's size when assessing his chances to play for the Canucks.
"I don't think there's a handicap for smaller guys," MacTavish said. "You're competing against bigger, stronger guys, but smaller guys are subjected to the same evaluation as everybody else. It's what you create minus what you give up.
"Smaller guys have a tendency, if they're not real solid positionally, to give up more. So they've got to do one of two things: They've got to reduce the amount that they give up or they've got to create more. He has improved in both areas."

Ann learns the truth about the abduction, Sue Ellen guns for Elena, and some evidence is found at Pamela's old condo.
The real Rebecca Sutter gets cold feet at the police station. Chris tells her Pamela did something to Tommy and if she doesn't help him she will be joining Tommy in his cell. She agrees and files the missing person report. Chris plays for the investigator the threatening message from Pamela that Tommy sent. The cop asks Rebecca to sign a release for Tommy's dental records.
At Southfork, Ann congratulates Elena for making partner. Bobby arrives, upset, and Elena leaves. He tells Ann that Ryland took Emma from the fair. The police will question her, but now she knows what she is facing. She fears it is too late to get back Emma. Bobby thinks she deserves to have Ann in her life and encourages her to fight.
John Ross wakes up at Pamela's ready for round two. She doesn't trust John Ross – this is just business. He tosses her back in bed and they struggle over who is on top.
Bobby and Ann meet Harris's mom at the station. She has been waiting 20 years to tell Ann she was just an egg donor. Bobby tells Ann to ignore her and she goes in to see Emma. Bobby warns Judith he is coming for her. She doesn't think he is her type. Inside, Ann begs to prove to Emma she is not a monster. Harris told Emma that Ann was an addict. She admits she took tranquilizers to push away the pain of her marriage, but it only made things worse. She lost sight of who she was and what mattered – Emma. She died inside when she was taken and never stopped loving her. Emma accuses Ann of just feeling guilty and asks her to leave her alone.
At Southfork, JR tells John Ross how he is going to get Elena's shares via Sue Ellen. JR wants him to act hurt about his break up with Elena to draw out Sue Ellen's mama bear. Later, Elena's brother Drew suddenly shows up and Elena is in shock. He says he is back for good, ready to put down some roots. Later, Christopher takes a call while Drew proposes something to Elena. He came back to Dallas to find oil on their father's land. She informs him that Maria sold her land to Bobby. He promises to get it back – and find oil under it.
John Ross visits Sue Ellen at her office. He never saw her more alive than when she was running for governor and encourages her to build her own empire. He admits he was hurt by Elena, who played him like a fool. She thinks it is time to show Elena who she is dealing with.
Rebecca meets Pamela at her place, demanding to know where Tommy is. Chris is threatening her with perjury charges. She tells Pamela about the cell phone Tommy sent with the voicemails. She demands one million dollars to disappear or she will be on the stand singing for Christopher. Later, Pamela gives her statement to the police. She tells him that Tommy had been threatening her, and when Chris found out he threatened to hurt Tommy. The cop leaves and Pamela tells Frank to pay off Rebecca and warn her not to come back again.
Elena visits Christopher in his office and tells him she is afraid Drew will drill on that land no matter what. Later, Sue Ellen comes by to see Elena and wants her to treat her interests as more than a hobby. She gives Elena one month to hit oil or she calls in her loan. Later, Elena learns from Chris' secretary that Sue Ellen and John Ross have been chatting a lot lately. The cops call Chris and tell him they found something in Pamela's old condo.
Chris arrives at the condo and the cop tells him about the blood splatter in the vents. Pamela has a lot of explaining to do. He texts Rebecca that Tommy is dead and she is in danger. She tries to leave her hotel but Frank stops her.
Elena meets Drew on their father's old land. He is sure there is oil there but she insists it's dry. She asks for his help getting oil from the Henderson plot for dad instead.
John Ross meets up with Elena's oil rig captain at a bar and offers him his undying friendship – and a thick roll of cash - to take his time finding oil.
JR surprises Frank at his place. He heard about the blood splatter at the old condo and knows this is a mess Frank was supposed to clean up. Cliff is going to protect his daughter so Frank might as well tell him where the body is buried. Frank is worried Cliff will know he sold him out, but JR assures him that won't be a problem. He'll be in touch soon.
At the courthouse, Chris gets a call that the blood they found was Tommy's and it is now a homicide investigation. Rebecca never arrives for the hearing. Pamela does, and Chris is scared of her.
At Southfork, Ann overhears Bobby say there is nothing they can do about Harris. She slips out. Later, Bobby comes to JR for help bringing down Harris. JR assures him it will be his masterpiece.
John Ross visits Pamela at her place and tells her the cops found evidence Tommy was shot in her condo. He knows he hit her and asks if she was protecting herself. She doesn't answer and instead they have sex.
Ann visits Harris at his place and asks why he took Emma. After he is sure she is not wired he tells her it was because she was going to leave him. He would not let her make a fool of him so instead he took her time away with Emma forever. She pulls out a gun and shoots him.
Hollie's thoughts:
Not shocking at all that Ann took matters into her own hands. Too bad we don't get to see that kind of revenge JR had planned for him instead. If Harris does die, it will be a hard character to lose but Judith should do nicely filling in his evil footsteps. In fact, the revenge she might exact could almost be as delicious as Harris asking Ann for all those hugs last season. Meanwhile, I can understand Sue Ellen's blind allegiance to her son, but after so many years dealing with JR you would think she could smell him all over this plot.

The Writing and Communication Center offers several services to MIT undergraduate students, graduate students, and post-docs. They can get free individual consultation about any writing difficulty, from questions about grammar to matters of style, including difficulties common to writers, such as overcoming writer's block, organizing papers, taking essay exams, revising one's work, or presenting scientific information.
They may visit the Center during any stage of the writing process: prewriting, writing a first draft, revising, or editing. And consultations may concern papers that have been (or will be) submitted for a grade.
The Center is not, however, a proofreading service. It aims to treat writing as a process, to clarify and promote techniques of good writing. The Center also offers instruction both to individuals and groups in methods of oral presentation (how to write a speech, how to use visual aids, how to conduct oneself when presenting scientific or nonscientific information).
The Center provides specialized help to those for whom English is a second language.

Abbey Bominable
this wiki
|Abbey Bominable
|December 14
|Lagoona Blue and Frankie Stein
Abbey Bominable is a 2011-introduced and all-around character. She is a yeti and a student at Monster High. She is an inhabitant of the Himalaya mountain range, but has traveled to the Boonighted States of Scaremerica to enroll at Monster High on request of Headless Headmistress Bloodgood, who is a friend of the Bominables. Though by far not the only foreign student, Abbey has had a harder time adjusting to the new culture she is required to participate in than most. These days, she has created a reliable group of friends around her that make any awkward moments humorous rather than discouraging. Abbey is a proud and straightforward girl who doesn't readily spend words to bring her message more delicately. She's also very strong in terms of both physical abilities and cryokinetic ones and therefor intimidating, but although occasionally useful, she'd rather be known as simply a nice girl to hang out with.
In English, Abbey is voiced by Erin Fitzgerald.
In Latin American Spanish, when the series was dubbed in Colombia, she was voiced by Yarley Gómez in volume 2, then, when the serie began to be dubbed in Mexico, she was voiced by Erica Edwards in "Why Do Ghouls Fall in Love?", and by Yotzmit Ramírez since volume 3.
Abbey is known as the tough ghoul at Monster High. She is fierce, confident and often headstrong. Some people believe she has an icy personality, but once you warm up to her, she's fun to hang out with. Her coldness may be partially due to the fact that English is her second language, and she has trouble telling when people are joking and when they are not.[1]
Abbey, though quite tough, can be very easy-going once you make your presence known. Her references to her Himalayan home are quite present in her speech, and are a hit or miss in awkward situations. Abbey's been suggested to be from Bhutan or near the country. Abbey Teaches Trek Lessons in Ge-ogre-phy
Abbey has light blue skin accentuated with a sort of glittering effect, and long, white hair with uneven streaks of pink, purple and blue mixed in made to look like they start as pink and blue on the edges and mix in the middle as purple. She has two small tusks protruding from her mouth, and has large hands with sharp claws. Height-wise, Abbey is larger than most of the main cast, even in doll form. She always wears an ice crystal necklace to keep her direct environment at a suitable temperature for her. She also wears a headband, wristbands, an off-the-shoulder tube crystalline dress, and knee-high high-heeled boots, all made with yak fur, except her lilac leggings. [2]
Classic Monster
Abbey is the daughter of Yeti, a legendary ape-like cryptid said to inhabit the Himalayan region of Nepal, India and Tibet. Stories of the Yeti first emerged as a facet of Western popular culture in the 19th century.
The scientific community generally regards the Yeti as a legend, given the lack of conclusive evidence, yet it remains one of the most famous creatures of cryptozoology. The Yeti may be considered a sort of parallel to the Bigfoot of North America. The appellation "Abominable Snowman" was coined in 1921, the same year Lieutenant-Colonel Charles Howard-Bury led the joint Alpine Club and Royal Geographical Society "Everest Reconnaissance Expedition" which he chronicled in Mount Everest The Reconnaissance, 1921. In the book, Howard-Bury includes an account of crossing the "Lhakpa-la" at 21,000 ft (6,400 m) where he found footprints that he believed "were probably caused by a large 'loping' grey wolf, which in the soft snow formed double tracks rather like those of a bare-footed man". He adds that his Sherpa guides "at once volunteered that the tracks must be that of 'The Wild Man of the Snows', to which they gave the name 'metoh-kangmi'". "Metoh" translates as "man-bear" and "Kang-mi" translates as "snowman".
Abbey is the daughter of the Yeti, also known as "The Abominable Snowman". Presumably, both of her parents are Yetis.
Abbey and Marisol Coxi are second cousins, which suggests that the Maricoxi and the Yeti are cousins, which unites the Bominable/Coxi family relationships, branching Abbey's family away from the Bominables. Additionally she has a great uncle named Frostovitch, who suffers from weak bones Frght On!, a cousin named Blitnichik From Fear to Eternity and a grandmother yeti Home Ick notebook.
In her I Heart Fashion description, Abbey refers to herself as the youngest in her family. Whether this means she has older siblings or, in case family units are larger in her village, older cousins is unclear.
According to Abbey's profile, her best friends are Frankie and Lagoona. This is because out of all of Monster High's student body, they have been the ones helping her get accustomed to her new environment.[3] Headless Headmistress Bloodgood is a good family friend, and that it was her idea for Abbey to attend Monster High. Abbey stays with her during the school weeks so that she will not have to constantly trek back up and down the mountain. She also seems to be friends with Howleen because in her diary, she defends her when Manny Taur was bullying her. Abbey Bominable's School's Out diary.
She might be friends with Ricky since she knew that he was in the freezer No Place Like Nome.
Due to her cold nature, Abbey tends to make more foes than friends, even when she means good. In fact, her relationship with her best friend Frankie didn't start all that goodAbominable Impression. Either way, Abbey has made a list of animosities around Monster High, including the weracat trio, Toralei Stripe, Meowlody and Purrsephone, and C.A. Cupid before her exchange. This was mostly due to their opposite personalities and the way each looks at the matter of love, Cupid's subjectiveness versus Abbey's objective ways.Why do Ghouls Fall in Love though their issues might have been fixed. The Ghoulest Season
Abbey's pet is a baby wooly mammoth named Shiver. Shiver is female, according to her bio and stats.
Abbey does not have a boyfriend. However, in her diary, she writes about Heath Burns hitting on her. She states that he is "annoying... but scary cute", and tries to ignore him. She would prefer to be asked on a date as opposed to flirtation.
However, in "Ghouls Rule", the two seem much closer, proven from when Abbey rescues him in the beginning from a pumpkin attack and throughout the rest of the film, he tries to make it up to her, but by the end of it all, the two end up dancing together at the party.
Also, in "A Perfect Match", Heath tries nonstop to get Abbey to ask him to the dance. Despite her friends' protests, it seems that Abbey asks him either way. As to why she asked him is revealed at the end, when she told Cleo, "He makes me laugh."
In "Scaris: City of Frights", while Heath thought nobody missed him, Abbey stated that she missed him a little, making him happy.
