After months of anticipation and rumors, the Rangers finally
signed Brad Richards to a nine-year, $60 million deal this morning.
Much conversation about the signing will focus on the terms
of the deal, but it's also important to note that this isn't Scott Gomez or
Chris Drury; this is one of the best players in the National Hockey League
that, when healthy, can change the direction of the franchise.
Still, the deal, especially the number of years, is
difficult to wrap one's head around. The
$6.5 million cap hit is certainly manageable, but nine years is an extremely
long investment to make in a 31-year-old coming off a concussion. Richards may well earn his pay for the first
four years of the deal, but down the road it will be very difficult for
Richards to justify his contract.
The astounding part is that many reports indicate that the
Rangers actually didn't make the highest offer to Richards. The center turned down more money to join New York, a rare occurrence
to be sure, but when the price is this high the discrepancy of a few million
dollars may not matter.
Whether you're pleased with the terms of Richards' contract
or not, there's no denying that he fills a huge void at first-line center and
should provide major help in fixing a couple of New York's biggest problems
from last season.
When healthy, Richards is among the best playmakers in the world and should immediately revive the Rangers' power play and could be the remedy
to Marian Gaborik's offensive woes. He's
good for a minimum of 20 goals and 50 assists and capable of far-exceeding
those totals.
Richards tallied seven goals and 22 assists on the power
play last year and 13 power play goals and 27 power play assists the year
before. He's among the better pp QBs in
the league and helped Dallas
finish 14th in the league in power play percentage last season. The Rangers finished 18th, 1.1
percentage points behind the Stars, a deficit that Richards could easily erase.
Richards has long-been one of the premier playmakers in the
league and if anyone's capable of turning Marian Gaborik's disappointing
2010-2011 season into a distant memory, it's him. Richards is the rare pivot that makes those
around him better and not only could he turn Gaborik back into a 35-goal
scorer, but he could be the key that transforms probable top-line left wing
Brandon Dubinsky into a star offensive player.
Richards gives the Rangers a nemesis that opponents must
gameplan for night after night. He's capable
of tallying four points easily and providing enough offense on his own for the
Rangers to win games, especially with Henrik Lundqvist in net.
Among players expected to be on the 2011 Rangers' roster,
only Mats Zuccarello and Brandon Dubinsky were better on faceoffs last year and
neither of them will see much time at center.
Other than the terms of his contract, the biggest concern
regarding Richards is the concussion he suffered in mid-February. Richards doesn't have a concussion history,
but he did miss 26 games in 2008-2009 and eight games in 2007-2008. One concussion doesn't necessarily mean that
Richards will suffer another, but it's become a major trend in the NHL
throughout the years that those that have suffered one concussion often suffer
So there you have it, Richards is officially a
Blueshirt. The concussion is a caution
and the deal is monstrous, but there's no question the Rangers are a better
team now than they were yesterday. We'll
see how the Richards saga plays out, but at least this time they paid for truly
special talent.
Plenty more to come.

Good question, but to be fair to everyone, no--unless you have two Platinum accounts.
So if you have two novels on the go, you'll have to work out which one you think has the most potential. Hard I know. A bit like favoring one of our children over another. Unthinkable!

I need to create a local development environment in order to develop oscommerce and magento websites. Some of these sites are being imported from a remote server that runs php 5.3.24. As a result when I installed php 5.4 and set them up locally they didn't work. I was finally able to get them setup after installing an older version of xampp that included php 5.3. The problem with that version is it doesnt have cURL installed. I also tryed wamp, but it seemed to have a bug in regards to enabling cURL. After trying to manually install php/mysql/apache and realizing I was in over my head, I'm at my wits ends.
So, here are my requirements:
-php 5.3
-cURL installed and enabled
Please advise as to the best way to setup an environment that satisfies these needs.

Motorola released a video to the blogs today that they called the "Tablet Evolution," which turned out to be a teaser video for the upcoming announcements that will be taking place at CES 2011. The video was very straight forward and to the point, at one point they even refer to the iPad as a "giant unlocked iPhone 4," and the boxing gloves come out.
Motorola has made it no secret that they are taking aim at the iPad, which was able to secure a large portion of the tablet market with their early release. The teaser video starts by showing some of the various tablets, even those that date back to Mayan times, showing hieroglyphics and other ancient scriptures.
Then, at the end of hthe video we see that iPad, which they say "is like a giant iPhone," followed by the Samsung Galaxy Tab Unlocked, along with some words about the features of the device. It was an interesting video that will cause quite a stir in the mobile community. It isn't all that surprising that Motorola attacked Apple in the ad, but it is surprising that they did it so blatantly, accusing them of re-branding their iPhone and releasing it with a larger screen.
The device will have the next version of Android that has not even been announced at this time. With the recent leak of a picture of the tablet with a Verizon logo on it, things seem to be finally heating up in the tablet section of the mobile market.
Apple certainly won't take the attacks lightly, and will probably fight back with some weak shots of their own. Only time will tell how well the Motorola tablet PC does, but the way they are marketing it seems like we are gearing up for a face off between the iPad and the Galaxy Tab.

ORLEANS–After a year where wins were few and far between, the 2013 Lake Region baseball club is looking to their younger players to turn things around this season.
"We have a great young bunch of guys that want to come out and compete every day, so I am very excited about it." said head coach Eric Degre. "Indoor practices have been incredible. Our pitching is very strong, and it seems to me that we are going to be able to compete in every game this year.
"The energy right now is incredible. The guys are working hard every night. My expectation is to be ready ten minutes early, and these guys are thirty minutes early, waiting for me to get out because they want to play."
They will get that chance to play in games that count on April 18th, when they host Hazen at 4:30.

People gathered on January 18 in Tunceli, to pay a final tribute to Sakine Cansiz who was assassinated in Paris last week. The growing crowd of participants, men and women adorned in white scarves, a symbol of peace, marched in a funeral many in Turkey feared would turn into a violent protest. The three women, one of them Sakine Cansiz, a co-founder of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), were found fatally shot, at least three times in their heads, at a Kurdish centre in Paris last week.

By KEN LARSONSun Advocate publisher
The Carbon County Board of Education voted to allow Castle Valley Community Theatre to forgo the waiver of the insurance fee for the group's production of "Grease" at Mont Harmon Junior High in November.
Madelaine Nyffeler, stage manager and drama instructor at the junior high, and Mike Youso, community theatre president, appeared at the regular school board meeting last Wednesday.
Nyffeler and Youso explained that there are 16 junior high students and 24 Carbon High student in the cast and two adults. The production is a joint effort between Mont Harmon's drama department and Castle Valley Community Theatre.
The school insurance has always covered the performances, but apparently there was an accident and a claim after the last show, drawing attention to the activity.
Nyffeler pointed out the number of students who participate in the performances and explained that the community group could not function if the members had to come up with the $700 for the insurance.
The group already covers much of the repairs and maintenance at the school for items such as lights and curtains, indicated Nyffeler.
Mont Harmon is the primary insurer of the school facility and makes the district liable for claims. The board agreed that the performances are a partnership between the school and the theatre group.
However, the board requested that limitations be set and a letter of understanding be drafted to outline the parameters of the partnership. The members passed the motion, with Boyd Bell casting a no vote.
In other business, Carbon High wrestling coach Dave Smith appeared before the school board to request use of a tour bus to transport the wrestlers to Nevada to the Tournament of Champions in Reno in December. Carbon recently was asked to compete in the region invitational. The board had previously given permission to attend and Smith reported that approximately 14 students would be competing. A couple options were discussed including taking less students and using a school van or working with schools in Delta or San Pete to share the bus expense. The board approved the request with Debi Blackburn opposing.
Smith also discussed the youth wrestling program, in particular a sanctioned USA Wrestling tournament that Price hosts each year. Currently he works with Carbon recreation but the recreation board is having problems with the funds being part of the USA sanctioned tournament. Smith will appear before the recreation board this week and then report back to the school board should action need to be taken.
Mont Harmon Junior High School has chosen to change the emphasis of their School Land Trust plan and requested that the board review their new plan for approval. In his explanation of the request, Todd Lauritsen pointed out that the community council had seen the new PA systems at Castle Valley Center and decided it would better meet their needs. The overhead projectors were no longer available so they were deleted from the request and they decided they needed to fund the after school probation school.
"It is very important for our students to have proper behavior and how to be successful in school," pointed out Lauritsen, adding that Mrs. Ahmu has been very successful with this program. The committee met and approved these changes at the school level. Previously approved funding levels and expenditures will not change.
Transportation supervisor Regina McCourt appeared before the board and requested the annual purchase of school buses to replace aging buses at a cost of $193,275. It was pointed out that two buses need to be replaced since the vehicles no longer safely transport students, the maintenance is excessive and each bus is older than 15 years.
Carbon district tries to maintain a bus fleet free of safety concerns. At the rate of three new buses per year, the district can maintain a fleet of 45 buses with no bus more than 15 years of age. One of the replacement buses, which is special needs equipped and holds 84 passengers, would cost for $98,589. The board pointed out that since the district is down 1,500 students and several small bus routes have been consolidated, they didn't feel it was necessary at this time.
The board requested that McCourt complete a detailed survey showing the number of buses, number of children on each, number of routes, where the buses are stored, any special needs concerns, the number of buses needed for trips, the number of backup buses and how many buses are on the road at any given time. The board delayed the request until the next meeting. It takes almost a year before the new bus arrives after it has been ordered.
McCourt also requested permission to attend the National Association for Pupil Transportation's 30th annual conference the end of October in Cincinnati, Ohio. Several courses concerning leadership, management, bus routing, scheduling, safety and security are on the agenda. In the discussion the board suggested they treat transportation like other management positions and attend national conferences every other year. McCourt pointed out that safety issues were her primary concern and reason for requesting the conference.
Following the discussion it was approved that McCourt be put on the schedule like the principals and attend the conference every third year.
Deon Kone, building and grounds supervisor, appeared before the board asking for the approval of costs to engage an architect to do the drawings for a new roof on Carbon High School.
"I would like to start them on the project at this time in order to get the drawings done and the bid proposal on the street and bid by March," he pointed out. This allows the contractor to make the commitment of manpower to this project so it may be completed in the summer. His request to get the design on the entire building and bid it as a whole job, however, separates the Sawtooth portion into the first summer and the remainder of the flat roof of the main building and shop area into the following summer. It was pointed out that roof repair in the district is a 12-year program with a different roof replaced every summer. Currently the district building is getting a new roof. Kone estimated architectural and engineering costs to be about $99,000 for the entire project. This is based on a modified build-up roof and air conditioning of some type, if each is installed at this time. William Jewkes was appointed to serve another two-year term as the district business administrator.

President Barack Obama has survived Benghazigate — thus far. In the weeks and days leading up to the November 6 elections, President Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and their advisors, no doubt, had containment of this Libyan fiasco foremost in their minds. Would toxic details of the deadly debacle leak out and spell doom for the struggling administration in the closing hours of the campaign?
A CBS News national telephone poll of likely voters conducted October 25-28 did not portend well for Team Obama. Locked in a dead heat with Mitt Romney, and with the economy in shambles and sliding toward a fiscal cliff, unemployment sky high, and a looming debt tsunami, the last thing the Obama White House could afford was a late-inning foreign policy disaster, especially when Obama propagandists were touting foreign policy and national security as their candidate's great strength.
According to the CBS poll, only 38 percent of voters approved of President Obama's handling of the September 11 attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya, that left four Americans dead: U.S. Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens, his assistant Sean Smith, and former Navy Seals Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. Over half of all voters (51 percent) and 57 percent of Independents disapproved of his handling of Benghazi.
Even though the conventional wisdom held that pocketbook issues would determine the outcome of the race, Benghazi could have spelled the end for Obama. The numbers were looking very bad, and that was even with the overwhelmingly pro-Obama mainstream media bending over backward to cover for the White House and keep Libya off the media radar screens. As more and more troubling details about Benghazi began leaking out, the major corporate media smothered the facts and stuck to the White House talking points.

FORT DRUM Soldiers will again be able to sign up for classes using the Armys Tuition Assistance Program, after access returned to the programs website.
The return was announced Tuesday in a statement on www.goarmyed.com, where program applicants apply for funding.
The Armys tuition assistance program, for which all soldiers, including Army Reserve and Army National Guard members, are eligible, pays up to $250 per credit hour, with an annual limit of $4,500.
The announcement states that funding rates would be unchanged for the remainder of the fiscal year, Sept. 30.
After funding for the program was stripped, Congressional action in the weeks after led to the reversal of the cost-cutting move.
The suspension of the program as a part of sequestration drew frustration from many service members from post and school administrators in the north country.
According to an economic impact statement released in March, the post in fiscal year 2012 authorized $911,367 in tuition assistance benefits for 1,517 soldiers to attend local college partners, about $600 per soldier. That total is an increase from the $721,000 authorized in fiscal year 2011 for 525 soldiers, about $1,373.33 per soldier.
At Jefferson Community College, there was concern that a loss of students would lead to program reductions and staff cuts. The school had to cut two of ten courses offered on post due to low enrollment.
The schools spring session has 102 students on tuition assistance, taking 686.5 credits valued at more than $100,000.
Other area schools like SUNY Potsdam and SUNY Canton reported between 10 to 20 students who used the program, with a larger number using GI Bill money that was not connected to the funding cut.
The full tuition program announcement can be found at http://bit.ly/YknEsp.

Thanks to the Internet, people are able to access information that, in the past, was not easily available. A few decades ago, medical data may have been elusive and filled with confusing jargon the layperson might not have understood without a crash course in biology. However, today there are different Web sites that clearly spell out information about certain illnesses and diseases. This means that patients may no longer be walking blindly into appointments with doctors.
Facing an illness is never easy, and the decision-making abilities could be hampered by emotions and the desire to improve as quickly as possible. Patients who do not have all of the facts may have to rely solely on the expertise of caregivers and physicians when making important healthcare decisions. By knowing the avenues of information, a patient can find assistance with careful decision-making.
While learning about an ailment is important, there are some things to consider.
The Internet isn't foolproof. Many online medical sites are very reliable and offer a wealth of pertinent information. They can be good starting points when seeking out information on a particular condition. It is in your best interest to visit sites that are well-known and monitored by respected medical affiliations. Other sites may be peppered with exaggerated claims or misinformation. Therefore, do not go by online information alone.
Don't self-diagnose. It can be easy to use the Internet as a means to narrowing down symptoms and making assumptions about what ailments you may have. Instead of using the Internet to self-diagnose your condition, leave the diagnosis up to your doctor and rely on online information after you are diagnosed. This can improve your understanding of the condition and any potential treatment options.
Seek other avenues of information. You should never hesitate to seek a second opinion or go to a published medical journal to find out more about a condition. You have rights as a patient to be comfortable with the advice doctors give and be as involved in your treatment as you want to be.
Online forums could be more harm than help. Many people turn to online forums and blogs to gain more insight into particular diseases. While these forums may be good sources of support, information published on these sites could be misleading, inaccurate or unsafe. Before trying any proposed treatment, it is best to consult with your doctor.
Having a general knowledge of a medical condition can enable healthcare consumers to make more informed decisions about their situations.

Washington Irving
This page may be referred to as: http://www.birmingham.gov.uk/irving
The American writer Washington Irving (1783-1859) spent many years in Birmingham, first visiting at the end of the Napoleonic War, in 1815. He stayed with his sister Sarah, her husband, Henry van Wart, and their two sons and two daughters, one of whom was his god-child. They later told of how he would invent stories to entertain them and their friends.
van Wart, an American who became British by special act of parliament, was a businessman and politician, founder of the Birmingham Exchange, one of Birmingham's first Aldermen and a director of the Birmingham Banking Company.
Irving lived with the van Warts first in Icknield Street West (formerly Ladywood Lane), then Camden Hill (now called Newhall Hill). Although neither house still stands, the former was half way between the Monument Lane Canal and Spring Hill Library, the latter on the corner of Legge Lane and Frederick Street. Irving christened each of these buildings "Castle van Tromp". Irving later stayed with the van Warts at their subsequent homes, at 13 Calthorpe Street, Edgbaston, and "The Shrubbery" on Hagley Road. He is also known to have worshipped at St Paul's Church in St Paul's Square.
It is worth remembering that, when Irving was here, most of what we now know as Birmingham was countryside, with no railways and only the beginnings of the industrialisation that was to follow - Camden Hill would have been on the country edge of what we now know as the Jewellery Quarter, with many small workshops, but Icknield Street West was in countryside - Irving would probably have been aware of nearby Perrot's Folly, although Edgbaston Reservoir, beside which it stands, was not made until 1825. Perhaps Irving also visited Boulton and Watt's works a mile or so away, at Soho, or Boulton's home, Soho House?
Irving toured England, Scotland and Wales during his stay here, meeting Coleridge and Walter Scott, and working on his collection of essays, "The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, Gent." (1819-20), including the famous story of Rip van Winkle, a story which he wrote through the night at the house in Camden Hill, reading it to his hosts over breakfast the next day, and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, which has recently been filmed.
His next book, "Bracebridge Hall, or, The Humorists, A Medley " (1822), was inspired by his visits to Aston Hall. The hall was then occupied by James Watt Junior, whom Irving visited, but was previously owned by members of the Holte Family (the last Holte to own, but not live at, Aston, Charles Holte, had only one child, Mary, who married Abraham Bracebridge, who in turn became Charles' tenant at Aston). There is also a Bracebridge Pool in Sutton Park. Irving's notebook of 1818 includes such jottings as:
"Aston Hall. Gateway to the park. Lion Head Knocker. Studded nails, squirrel on top of gateway - gateway and porters lodge sheltered under trees... church spire rising above... Old oak gallery of great extent... figures of knights in armour with banners".
An epitaph used in the book was "borrowed" from a gravestone in Handsworth parish churchyard.
Other works, including "Alhambra" (1832) and "Mahomet and his Successors" (published 1850, although finished much earlier) were drafted on his travels, and completed in Birmingham, which he continued to visit for many years.
To this day, Birmingham has an Irving Street, west of Bristol Street and parallel with Holloway Head, in the City Centre.
Much of the material on this page was found in The Life of Washington Irving, by Stanley T. Williams, 1935, which is available, along with many other reference works about, and writing by, Irving, in Birmingham Central Library.

By RON PATTERSON USU Extension Agricultural Agent
Local fruits and vegetables are good for your health, the environment, and the local economy.
Imagine taking a bite of a juicy peach. How would you like to pop a few ripe raspberries into your mouth? How about fresh, crisp cucumbers, or local honey? Would you like corn on the cob that was picked within the last 24 hours? You really can't beat the taste of truly local produce.
Those who have the time, space and energy to garden receive healthful benefits in two ways-exercise and healthy food.
The flavor of fresh produce is vibrant. In addition, unprocessed, fresh fruits, vegetables and meats are healthier for you. The most important point is to make sure they have been handled and stored correctly. Fruits and vegetables should be washed before eating, regardless of the source.
Working out in nature also does wonders for our physical, mental, and spiritual health. The physical activity helps us keep our muscles in tone. The peace of early morning hours planting or weeding helps us start the day in a calming manner. The tranquility of songbirds and quiet repose helps to strengthen our spirits. If it is possible we owe it to our peace of mind to feel the joy of life around us.
Locally grown fruits, vegetables, and meats are also healthier for the environment. A study conducted by the Worldwatch Institute in 2002 indicates that the average meal travels 1,500 - 2,500 miles to get to the table. In many instances it takes more fuel to get the food to the market than it did to grow it originally.
Locally grown produce also helps to keep more of our dollars spent right here at home. That money is used several times within the local economy, purchasing from local suppliers, and paying for the wages of other local people. Local purchases help to support public programs which benefit us all.
Do your health a favor. Keep it as local as possible. If you don't have the ability to grow some of your own produce, find a local gardener or check out the local farmers' market for an exciting array of fresh fruits and vegetables. In the event of a catastrophic emergency it is much more comforting to know there are local people who can produce and supply more food. A healthy community is self-sufficient for the most basic of needs-food and shelter.

The plans for the redevelopment of the 85-acre former Delphi plant site southwest of Howell Avenue and Drexel Avenue in Oak Creek will be unveiled Friday at a groundbreaking ceremony for the Interstate 94 Drexel Interchange project.
The Delphi plant closed in 2008 and is now a large vacant lot. Wispark LLC, the real estate development arm of Wisconsin Energy Corp., is working with the City of Oak Creek on a redevelopment project for the site.
The eastern third of the site will feature junior box retail stores (about 20,000 to 40,000 square feet each) and some outlot retail development, said Wispark president Jerry Franke.
The middle third of the site will have a "Main Street," lined with multi-story buildings with retail on the ground floor and apartments on the upper floors. A Town Square on the Main Street could be a community gathering place and it used for ice skating in the winter and farmers' markets in warmer months, Franke said. The Main Street area will also be the site of the city's new library and city hall.
The western third of the site will have "Third Ward" style apartment buildings, Franke said.
"We're hoping to attract young professionals working on the south side by offering them something different," he said.
The residential component of the development could also include an assisted living building, Franke said.
The entire development, which will be called Drexel Town Square, consists of 880,000 square feet of space, including 255,000 square feet of retail space, 70,000 square feet of civic space (for the library and City Hall) and 555,000 square feet of residential space, Franke said.
City officials hope the development will create a downtown area that is a community center and gathering place, which Oak Creek currently lacks. They hope the retailers in the development will serve residents of the development and the rest of the community and could include restaurants and a health club.
"We're really trying to make this a town center more like what downtowns used to be." Franke said.
"We believe the plan we've got here represents the consensus of the community for place making, to create a place (in the city) that doesn't exist right now," said City Administrator Gerald Peterson. "A place you can drive to and then park and walk around and take advantage of multiple services."
Wispark plans to market the project to retailers at the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) convention in Las Vegas later this month.
"This is going to be our first foray of marketing this concept," Franke said. "If we need to make adjustments, we will."

NASHVILLE at NYI, 7:05 pm – Biron in, Weight outJoin Auction for Islanders charity dinner today
11:25 am, NVMC – Charity comes first. The Islanders are hosting "Sticks and Steaks," a first-class fundraising dinner at Rothmann's on March 7 where winning bidders get to dine with their favorite Islander. Bryan Trottier and Bob Nystrom will also be in attendance. Last year's event raised $20,000 for the Islanders Children's Foundation.
So if you and a guest want to enjoy a cocktail hour and multi-course dinner with John Tavares, Rick DiPietro or any of your personal favorites at the splendid Rothmann's in East Norwich, this is your chance.
The online auction has begun here. For more details, go to the team site here. You can also call 1.800.882.ISLES x. 4. Tell them Point Blank sent you. Please let us know in Comments today how it went. Thank you for your consideration of this charitable event.
Whadaya know? Looks like Martin Biron, the goalie thought to be out of the rotation, gets the start tonight against his close pal J.P. Dumont, Pekka Rinne and the Nashville Predators. Biron is coming off a two-game conditioning stint in Bridgeport, where he lost one game in overtime and won 6-4 in regulation, backed by a rare showing of goal support by his own team.
Scott Gordon said Biron has been "unbelievable, in terms of his attitude. He always comes to the rink with a smile. We're fortunate to have him." The coach said Biron has worked very hard and he'd like to to see him start a game. Should be tonight.
Asked if he was starting, Biron – who received the reps of a starter at the morning skate – said he would defer. "I'll let Gordo tell you guys," he said.
Biron is starting.
Captain Doug Weight will be one of the Islanders' two healthy scratches, with youngsters Matt Martin and Jesse Joensuu playing. Gordon would not confirm that Jeff Tambellini was the other.
Hard to believe, when I think of Lighthouse meetings back when I was in my mid-30s, that on February 9, 2010 the project has been taken over by Kate Murray. The first official unveiling of plans were by Charles Wang and Tom Suozzi in 2004.
Incredible to think of all the years and all the millions of dollars wasted to get to this point. If the Town cuts Wang's plan by more than 33% – and they will – it would be a major back-track for him to accept it. Remember "Paris has her Tower" and all the talk of a "destination" for Long Island. Murray's consultants may craft a solid plan, but this isn't going to be a destination.
Good read here (subscription needed) from Newsday's Joye Brown, who has always been a major proponent of Wang's vision for the Coliseum site. Joye makes the point that, success or failure, the redevelopment of the property is now all Supervisor Murray's. The author also notes how for years Murray said she didn't want to have a say in the project, but now she has taken it over.
The Hempstead Town Board meets tonight to vote on Murray's plan. Geez, I wonder if it will pass?
Islanders Country awaits a response from Charles Wang. Whatever happens, this will not be boring.
Matt Martin has been told his entire hockey hockey career that he wasn't good enough. "Never played AAA hockey, made Sarnia on a tryout and then heard I wouldn't stick," Martin said. "Skating wasn't good enough, skills weren't there. It only fired me up.
"I don't mind criticism," Martin continued. "I respect most of it. It just inspires me to get better at whatever someone is critical of."
The 6-2 wing will make his NHL debut tonight. Scott Gordon told him to "go out and play your game. We called you up for a reason." Those reasons are obvious: Martin gets to the net, throws his body around and can fight. Maybe he's not 100% ready for all that this week, but he knows it's a good opportunity to showcase what he can do."
"I know I'll be back in Bridgeport during the Olympic break," said Martin. "No matter what happens, I have to keep playing games. I think this is a good chance for me personally to see how far I've come and how much more I need to improve. It's a great test. I'm fired up."
I'll be a guest on XM/Sirius NHL Home Ice tonight at 6:00 pm with Jim "Boomer" Gordon. Just two weeks ago, Boomer was salivating over his Islanders. Now he'll probably ask me how many players the team could move before the trade deadline. I hope you'll listen in.
Comments on tonight's game and this post. Again – I beg of you, cherished reader – I am Tambellinied out. Thank you.

1968 – At the 1968 Geneva Auto Show company founder Ferruccio Lamborghini presented the four-seater he had demanded in order to expand his lineup of sports cars. Marcello Gandini of Bertone had designed the Espada – a two-door Coupé that offered four comfortable seats and plenty of space for luggage.
With a total number of 1,227 units the Espada became Lamborghini's bestseller from 1968 to 1978.
1968 – During its ten-year production the Espada received several modifications. While the engine and the interior were changed with each new series, the design of the bodywork remained almost untouched. There just was no need for big redesigns since the Espada was a real eye-catcher right from the start.
1968 – The Espada could effortlessly reach a maximum speed of 250 km/h. Depending on the version, the 4-liter 12-cylinder engine developed between 325 and 350 HP and was praised equally for its sound and power.
With its large passenger compartment, the spacious trunk and the strong engine the Espada was the embodiment of the Italian Gran Turismo, a luxurious car for grand tours.

Hi everybody, I find this to be a great place to gain knowledge about Linux. I have just joined my first job. It is related to networking. So i look forward to get some help from this place time to time.
Thank you
Thanks opticsabru & explorer , we're glad you joined!
after the 4th purchase of the QfixNbook (3 gifts to friends) and landing a dream gig from the skills I gained from it, I'd like to again thank Peter for his labor of love!
It's been 9 fantastic months at the new gig serving as the solo "unix" sysadmin and every would be catastrophe that came up was remedied by a topic covered in the book, ie: failures of the, ldap, nfs/automount, iptables, samba, tcpdump, etc ,etc...
I'm from the wild north with bears and wolfes around - that is Finland. Well as living far from just about everybody it's nice to join a forum where I can discuss about the new interests I have - Linux/Apache/MySQL and PHP programming.
So I'm looking forward at having a nice time together with you folks. You may laugh at my stupid questions that I may have. But I hope I can someday be to some help to others also. - So I go into the number 1 stupid question: What is LINUX? Is it "Life In New Utopia after X os (win)? Well I will look into the faqs before my number 2 question.
Hey OpenMinded! Are you a friend of andycrofts? He's from Finland too and joined only a few days ago.
Thanks daturan. The forums are made up of the contributions of many great members. Stick around, ask questions and become one of the gang! Where are you located?
Hi all
Hope to find the answers to my installation questions here. I'm a Wasterwater Operator by profession with an interest in many aspects of computers, including how to make them work better and easier.
hai, i'm gautham. i'm an engg. student. i have just got this site from my friend and i have some doubts about linux that's why i'm here............

I am glad to use this Deodarant.This is good for users who have sensitive skin.
Good powder work for 10 hours and more.I feel fresh every time.

I have been using this for years! Buying these all the way from Singapore. It works perfect for me keeping my underarms dry throughout the day in the hot Singapore climate. Normal anti-perspirant just doesn't seem to work.

Also, the week has had it's fair share of lovely things. On Wednesday, a detour to The Works (who I used to work for!) on an unexpected trip into town to deal with some bank stuff yeilded a wee bit of treasure - A Bloomsbury 21 Edition of 'Johnathan Strange and Mr Norrell' by Susanna Clarke'. It was in the 3 for £5, and among the many and varied other choices, I also found a beautifully designed copy of her 'The Ladies of Grace Adieu'. Isn't it lovely?
On Friday I had another Kimble's lunch with Mhairi, as well as trying on a few dress options for Siobhan's wedding. I am SO excited about it. So far this is the main contender.
I am aware that it's partially white, but Siobhan has approved it and I plan to wear either red or yellow with it to de-whiten it a bit! The fabric is quite stiff though - wise in London in June? I remember being there in October and it being BOILING.
Yesterday Dave and I had lunch at T Ann Cake. It is fairly evident from my review that I love the place. Today, I had maybe the best cake I have ever had. It was coconut and lime favoured, and quite similar to my version of Grace's Coconut Crusted Sour Cream Cake , but with a little extra sharp-freshness from the lime. And it had the perfect icing:cake ratio (I know loads of people are all about icing, but if there's too much I am suspicious of it). ALSO, while we were there Dave got me this...
Today, in an effort to win my ongoing battle with bread, I am attempting my first sourdough starter. There are some very simple recipes and a step-by-step in this month's Country Living, and it seems so straightforward that I might as well give it a try! If it works, I should be able to make a loaf with it next weekend.
For now, It's time for breakfast, some radio and some chat with the husband.
I hope everyone is having a good weekend.
Oh, and the flat is still pretty tidy! :)

|Mental Illness equity bill clears committee
|Written by Lauren Ohnesorge
|Wednesday, 27 June 2007 18:28
The Senate Health Committee cleared a bill yesterday
that would require equity in health insurance coverage for mental illness.
The Senate version is different from the measure that cleared the House last month in that small businesses must also provide the coverage.

HARRISVILLE Lewis County General Hospital next week plans to reopen a clinic here that has been closed since last summer.
This is great news for the Harrisville community, Eric R. Burch, CEO at the county-owned hospital, said in a statement. We are pleased to be able to provide patients in the Harrisville area with easier access to health care. This would not have been possible without the support of the hospital Board of Managers, Diana Town Supervisor David Parow, Lewis County Legislator Philip Hathway and the Town Council.
The Harrisville Family Health Center, in a town-owned building at 14214 Church St., is set to open Monday and will be staffed by physician assistant Brittani L. Bickel, a licensed professional nurse and a physician office assistant.
Initial hours of operation will be 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mondays and Fridays, and 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursdays.
Anyone seeking more information or to schedule an appointment may call the center at 537-5003.
Carthage Area Hospital last summer relinquished control of the clinic to the Lowville hospital as part of a consolidation effort intended to get the Carthage facility back on solid financial ground.
However, state Department of Health officials required that a number of upgrades be made to the building before allowing it to be used again as a health clinic.
Changes completed by the town included replacement of fire doors and flooring, extensive work on handicapped-accessibility improvements and removal of lead-based paint on the exterior of the building, with plans to eventually replace the siding.
State officials approved the reopening following a Feb. 6 site visit.
With the recent building enhancements, the town is encouraging people of the community to utilize the health clinic and services of Lewis County General Hospital, Mr. Parow said in the release. The town is happy to partner with the hospital and hope to see the clinic operating on a full-time basis soon.
The clinic was built by the community in the 1960s to obtain a doctor in the area, according to Mr. Parow.
Mrs. Bickel, a Harrisville resident, has worked since last summer at Lewis County General Hospitals Beaver River Family Health Center in Beaver Falls and will continue to see patients at that clinic from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Prior to working in Beaver Falls, she was employed by Carthage Area Hospital and was the provider at the Harrisville site.
Many of my Harrisville area patients followed me to the Beaver River clinic, Mrs. Bickel said in the release. I am looking forward to seeing them back in the Harrisville community and to providing quality care for residents in the area. I love the area so much, I have even moved there.
She attended Boston University and Syracuse University, from which she graduated magna cum laude with a bachelors degree in biology.
E.J. Noble Hospital, Gouverneur, also operates a part-time clinic on Main Street in the village, although officials at that facility indicated last month that all of its satellite clinics were being reviewed for possible closure.

Read: What Can Be Expected From Mediation
At CBC, Dan Oldfield writes that a key to remember with mediation is that it is non-binding and used to help both sides find common ground on which to build a deal.
He says that the mediators will "attempt to uncover the real needs of the parties — as opposed to the wants — and bring them closer to satisfying those needs."
Oldfield says that the mediators may never bring the two sides into the same room and that after meeting with both sides to understand what their issues are they will start exploring the different ways that the gap can be bridged.
At ESPN.com Henry Abbott, who writes True Hoop, wrote about mediator George Cohen who is the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service Director.
Cohen was a mediator during the NBA lockout last year.
On what can be expected, Abbott writes "The NBA had its longest days of mediation when Cohen got involved. There is a practical reason for that — the process calls for the the two sides to be separated much of the time, with Cohen shuttling back and forth between them. Progress is slow. However, Cohen is said to have a deliberate tactic of making the days long to make clear that everyone means business, to minimize distractions from interested parties not in the room and to wear down those opposing a deal. After bargaining until 3 a.m. repeatedly, people tend to soften."
Chris Botta tweeted "Non-binding mediation for NHL and PA will be as useful as the union's labor board challenges. Killing time til BoG meeting on Dec. 5."

Live: John Tortorella On The Michael Kay Show
On Nash: "It's a really good deal. We are losing a couple of good players and a prospect. I am very close to Dubi and Artie, they have been good players for us. Erixon has potential, I haven't seen it yet, to be a really good player. We are picking up a guy that is a top power forward coming our way."
On expectations "As you evolve there are always expectations. That is a big part of what we have to handle correctly this year. There are no predicting, we just go about our business. We added a really good player and are just going to go about our business"
On getting him during the season, "I think it was close. They were asking for certain people but we weren't willing to move some people. I think that Glen and Gorts had great patience with it. We didn't want to lose the players they were asking for at first because they are part of our core. Someone was always asking for Dubinsky and I think that Brandon should feel good about that since he is so respected"
On Dubi, "he has matured. When I first started here he was a pain in the ass. He would get too high and then get too low. I will miss the guy. We spent a lot of time together just developing. I think he will have a good year and find his way"
On Kreider "They knew they weren't getting him. That was not a long discussion. Everyone looks to shoot for what they want and they just go back and forth. I am glad it's a deal that happened. I don't know Rick, but I have heard so many great things about him. He is going to fit in because he goes about his business and works every day. We are really looking forward to it. This is a legit top power forward and we are excited about having him"
On Del Zotto "Michael had a tremendous bounce back year, defended very well and had a very good playoff until the end. By no means are we trying to move Michael Del Zotto or lose him. We are looking to add more on the back end"
On losing to the Devils, "I still don't get over it. Marty made a great save on Brad in game six and I think that if we score and go up 3-2 we win that game and I don't think we lose game seven"
On watching the Stanley Cup, "Not for a second. I'm not sure what it is, I just don't. I'm not too interested. Once our season is over we start getting ready for our next camp. If we aren't involved I don't care"
On Prust, "we will miss him. He is a glue guy and became a big part of the locker room. Everyone in the room liked him and he loved it here. You try and keep your teams together but it's impossible. I think Pruster was trying to be fair, but god, he gets $10 million over $4 years and promised some things by their organization and I am leery of that, and I told him that."
The Yanks getting Ichiro "He has had a tough year, but oh boy, that is terrific. They just find ways to win. They have some great leadership. I have never met Joe but I think he just does a terrific job as far as keeping it steady."
Torts says "no chance" to a weekly interview with Michael Kay. He says that will talk with them in October.

Vance & Hines Pro Pipe Hi-Output Exhaust for Harley Touring 2009-2013
Pro Pipe Hi-Output is a purpose-built addition to the Pro Pipe family of 2-into-1 exhaust systems. Every aspect of Pro Pipe Hi-Output's design is singularly focused to yield maximum horsepower by improving the volumetric efficiency of heavily modified engines.
After countless dyno tests Pro Pipe Hi-Output was built utilizing tuned length headers that step from 1-3/4" to 2-1/4" to optimize exhaust gas velocity and scavenging while also maintaining the perfect balance of exhaust back pressure, assuring crisp throttle response and maximum roll on power. In addition, the merge collector features handcrafted internal knife edging to further improve scavenging efficiency through the collector.
Following the collector, the megaphone immediately tapers out to a 3-1/2" muffler body that expands to 4 1/2" for increased baffle area. The exclusive Vance & Hines baffle features reverse cone engineering that allows maximum power yet omits the perfect exhaust note rumble for any hi-output motor. Keeping its focus on performance, Pro Pipe Hi-Output retains the signature cues of the Vance & Hines Black Line with its high temperature ceramic coating and contrasted machined billet end cap.

On this day 12 years ago, future Chicago Fire forward and strikers coach Brian McBride scored one of the most beautiful goals in U.S. World Cup history, diving to put in future Fire defender Tony Sanneh's cross from the right to give the Americans a 3-0 lead over Portugal in the team's opening match of the 2002 World Cup.
Re-live the match:

Seems like we could be seeing Grant Stateside sometime soon... In case you've forgotten, a look back on this golazo he scored for the team in preseason vs. Colorado...
It was a cold and windy training session on Friday at Toyota Park. After the team went through their final preparations for Saturday's match vs. Philadelphia, they hurried in to join the Fire Front Office staff in wishing head coach Frank Yallop a very happy 50th birthday...
Frank was much obliged by the gesture...

We gave Fire forward Quincy Amarikwa free reign over our official Twitter account Thursday afternoon for an #AskQuincy session... Here were the results:
I've spent some time this week on Twitter pondering whether or not New York Red Bulls midfielder Tim Cahill would receive any additional suspension for a swing he took on reigning 2013 MLS MVP Mike Magee in the waning moments of Sunday's home opener.
The thoughts crossed my mind after seeing the two game suspension that Fire defender Lovel Palmer received the previous week for a foul that didn't look nearly as egregious as the one Cahill committed on Magee. My suspicions were only heightened when the play didn't make it into MLSsoccer.com's weekly "Instant Replay" feature earlier this week.
Watch it again below:
The MLS Disciplinary Committee decided Wednesday that the foul Cahill committed was only deserving of the yellow card that referee Drew Fischer showed to the Australian international and that no further disciplinary action would be necessary.
Admittedly I'm a homer and I'm sure there has at some point in the 19-year history of MLS there have been more egregious plays that have gone unpunished but it was hard not to feel like Lovel Palmer, who will be suspended again for Saturday's game at D.C. United, was the one losing out in this whole situation.
As I learned Wednesday night, clearly I should have just called on the services of young Keira Magee, who with the help of her father, quite plainly put the whole situation in perspective better than multiple tweets from the club's Team Writer ever could:
I can't believe it either Keira #cf97 #freePalmer https://t.co/gcUjuobrMT

Anyways, it may be time to get the below hashtag some love on Twitter...
It's Opening Day on Sunday and I'm making my normal pre-game rounds at the Section 8 Chicago tailgate. As I parade through the gaggle of the club's most vocal supporters, I stop and welcome back familiar faces from Ultras Red Side, one of the bigger groups inside of Section 8.
As we chat about our hopes for the game and what kind of spirits are keeping us warm, one Antwon Galante reveals a fresh tattoo he had done the night before.
"I had it planned for a while now but I wanted to get it for the new season -- fresh ink and a fresh start for 2014," Galante told me by phone on Wednesday.
The new tattoo features a large Fire logo on his right wrist and above it, an illustration of "The Harlem End" where Section 8 Chicago is based in Toyota Park.
"Obviously I wanted to pay homage to the Fire but also pay tribute to Section 8 and The Harlem End," he said. "It's a special part of our stadium and it's been like a second home to me."
While the tattoo was still obviously raw (and a little painful for Antwon), I quickly took out my iPhone and threw it up on the @ChicagoFire Instagram account. Shortly after @MLS did a #regram of it and Antwon was famous in the #MLSInk world.
You come into work on Wednesday and see the whole #cf97Ink hashtag has started to be populated on Twitter by others that have made that life-long decision to have some type of Chicago Fire-related art adorn their body.
A few more...
