While the New York Rangers gathered to support Marty St.
Louis and his family as they held funeral services for France St. Louis, the
Montreal Canadiens were whining about Chris Kreider's collision with Carey
Price in game.
The complaining mainly came from former Ranger Brandon Prust
and Montreal coach Michel Therrien didn't accuse Kreider of being a dirty
player but Prust called the collision "accidently on purpose." Of course this
leads to the hockey media in Canada to look at all of the collisions that
Kreider has ever had with any goalie.
Guess when you lose 7-2 on your home ice then you need to
look for someone to blame to deflect that your team played a really weak game.
To borrow from the Rangers, score was 2-0 and Kreider was trying to make 3-0
not hurt Price.
Why yes Montreal Kreider would rather give the Montreal
Canadiens a reason for them and their fans to rally around rather than make it
a 3-0 game. I have lost count of how many players have run players into their
own goalie but nobody remembers those plays now do they?
Memo to Prust don't worry as it is almost a given that Derek
Dorsett will fight you in game two. If not Dorsett then perhaps if Derek Brassard
doesn't play then Dan Carcillo will.
In the meantime the Rangers badly need to rid themselves of
that 13 game "monkey on their back" losing streak when playing with a series
lead. If I am Alain Vigneault then I show the team the tape of each goal from
game one.
Show them to remind them that it is much easier to score
when you are attacking the net. Take the puck to the net because it also forces
Montreal to skate 200 feet to try to score for themselves.
The better the attack, the better the forecheck then the
better you keep Montreal's PK Subban from attacking himself. Score early and
take the Montreal fans out of the game. The Rangers need to establish the up tempo for this game and render Montreal's
3rd and 4th lines as unusable. Force the Canadiens into a
foot race as that is not their game.
I so like Alain Vigneault's comments about expecting Carey
Price to play in game 2 as it renders any attempt by Montreal to play guessing
games about which goalie will play useless.
Cross your fingers and hope that Rick Nash has gotten that
monkey off his back and will start scoring goals. I will keep saying this and
that is Montreal does not have any kind of answer to stop Rick Nash from
scoring if Nash is attacking the net.
I have this feeling that Marty St. Louis is going to have a
monster game on Monday given the way he has responded so far to the passing of
his mother. I think St. Louis is going to "Mark Messier" the Rangers in game 2.
All Ranger fans can do is bring out your lucky charms and
hope by the end of game two that the Rangers will have a 2-0 series lead.

Prices vary based on delivery destination (it's a tax thing), so please change it if you're not shipping within United States as it might affect the price! (Why?)
Tobermory was originally founded in 1798 by John Sinclair, under the name Ledaig (pronounced 'led-chigg'), hence the recently released Ledaig range. Closing in 1837 and reopening in 1878, the distillery was acquired in 1890 by John Hopkins and Company. Today, Tobermory is the only distillery on the Isle of Mull. The distillery has quite a small annual capacity of just one million litres and runs at but three quarters of this. In 1930, the distillery closed and was used as a power plant. It was not the only time Tobermory had been used for purposes other than whisky distillation; in 1982 the buildings were leased to a dairy company who used them for storing cheese. Tobermory is currently under Burn Stewart ownership following the acquisition of both the distillery and a good stock of whisky for £800,000. The malted barley is shipped from the Port Ellen maltings at the South-East of Islay, also home to a more recent experiment whereby some casks are sent for maturation on the island, these are bottled as Ledaig. There is now just one official bottling in production; a ten year-old. There have also been independent bottlings and although popularity has been weaning, under the management of Alan McConnochie of Bunnahabhain fame, there is expected to be a resurgence.

If anything has been learnt by me from numerous hours of mine playing the game Castlevania Puzzle in your unlocked iphone4, it is that just as something is not always what you are used to, it does not mean necessarily that it is a bad thing. A big gamble was taken by Konami by delivering just one puzzle game inside a package of Castlevania. Do you think that the gamble paid off?
Castlevania Puzzle generally has you playing in the place of someone called Alucard and you are supposed to make your own way through the castle of Dracula in order to demolish it. You have a view of an awesome portion of this game, which is the map of the castle along with Alucard sprite running from one room to the other. And each of the rooms is accessed just by touching a line which is a link to the following room. One room is supposed to be accessed only with one certain ability, such as unlocking the doors, or a plenty of other ways are there.
While travelling from one room to the other room, you must run the great risk of walking into a foe. In this essence, I do mean that almost every room is expected to end in a battlefield. When you somehow run into any enemy, while changing the room there will be flashes of red in the background and you will be taken to the battle screen by the game itself. The battle screen while fighting places both you and your enemy characters supposedly in the mid-screen as they are having a "fight." Both the sides of this game screen now have one playing field for each character. Two gems start dropping, and each of the players needs navigation to them to their any desired location.

Tera anyone :O
So how is the game going to be decided?
Soooo did this post just die out :'(
I'd play Vindictus, Grand Chase, Elsword, anything action based xD
I don't know if it died out or not.
But I'm still looking,
I know many people suggested many different things.
I just don't know how we're all going to stick to one game and start playing together.
I haven't found anyone here yet. I don't know how to set this all up. We ought to just pick one game whoever is interested...
hmmm well i have Dragons Nest and Tera if anyone is interested
If those 2, I'd go for Dragons Nest preferably.
But not a lot of people might want to play these?
We have to find a game which would get us maybe 4 people at the very least?
True. Well then lets brainstorm :3
Care to suggest some games?

The countrys longest-running fair will celebrate 196 years of entertainment this week.
The Jefferson County Fair will run from Tuesday through Sunday at the Alex T. Duffy Fairgrounds, dazzling visitors with bear tricks, agriculture shows and gravity-defying rides.
Its tradition, fair President Richard D. Simpson said. Its something you cant get anywhere else. You can go to a theme park that has thrilly rides, but you can come here for a fraction of the cost.
This years big show is Halls Bear Mountain Wildlife Show, which will run three times almost every day.
Last year we had tigers, Mr. Simpson said. This year, we have bears.
And although the fair rarely does the same show two years in a row, the Disc-Connected K9s, a troupe of acrobatic, frisbee-loving dogs, will return.
These guys were really well-received last year, Mr. Simpson said.
The fair attracted 51,380 people last year despite sweltering temperatures. Mr. Simpson said he will be happy if at least 50,000 people show up this year.
If its too hot, thats not good, but if its too rainy its awful, he said.
The most popular rides in recent years, such as the Super Himalaya, Sky Flyer and Wild Claw, will be back this year.
Thrown into the mix are kid-friendly rides such as the merry-go-round and ferris wheel. Not counting the multiple funhouses, there will be 18 rides from which to choose.
Mr. Simpson reminds visitors that the fair is not just fun and games. Traditionally, livestock has been a central part of it.
We have over 150 cows this year, he said.
Other shows throughout the week will judge sheep, ducks, pigs, rabbits and many other farm animals raised throughout the north country.
We have a bigger llama show than we have in years, fair Manager Martha A. Petrie said.
Parking is available at Jefferson Community Colleges Lot D. The price of admission is free Tuesday, $5 Wednesday through Saturday and $4 on Sunday. A wristband for the rides is $21. Also, there is free admission Saturday, Military Appreciation Day, for those with military identification.
A Mega Pass, which Mr. Simpson said is the best deal for bargain-hunters, includes fair admission and a wristband for a day, and costs $20 before the fair opens and $24 after it begins.
I feel really good about this years fair, Mr. Simpson said.

There were no secret ingredients that turned Diapers.com from a category leader into a category killier in 2009.
There were no secret ingredients that turned Diapers.com from a category leader into a category killer in 2009. And it also wasn't rocket science. Instead what Diapers.com, No. 85 in the in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide, did to grow sales 104% to $182 million last year from $89 million in 2008 was to keep plugging away at what it does best: providing solid customer service and creating a unique online shopping experience for young parents and soon-to-be parents. While other web retailers scaled back their spending on marketing, merchandising and inventory because of the bad economy, Diapers.com went ahead and expanded its inventory to 60,000 products and used a combination of initiatives such as trucking orders from its various warehouses to the hubs of major shippers, to offer next-day delivery to 70% of its customers. Next year Diapers.com, which had just $2.5million in web sales its first year in business in 2005, expects to offer next-day delivery to 80% of its customer base. "We built this business on the basics of good customer service," says CEO Marc Lore. "We've never lost sight of that." Web retailers, whether they are on the way up or already there, can't stray too far from online retailing fundamentals – but many do. Diapers.com is morphing from category leader to category killer because it knows who its customers are – mostly time-starved and burden-laden young moms – and it keeps on creating an easier and more relevant shopping experience that makes them repeat buyers. The formula works. In 2010, Diapers.com expects sales to top $300 million. What's the takeaway for other web retailers here? To be a category killer, never forget that it's all about serving the customer. Like Diapers.com, keep that fundamental in mind and everything will fall into place.

With the majority of the first round of the Canadian Junior playoffs decided and the NCAA Tournament already down to their "Frozen Four," it is time to see who is still left playing and what might be happening to those who have been eliminated.
Brady Skeji (NYR 2012 1st) and his Minnesota Golden Gophers punched their ticket to the "Frozen Four" with a pretty easy 4-0 win over the St. Cloud State Huskies in the West Regional. Skjei was scoreless on 1 shot and a +2 for the game and pretty much had a quiet game. As his Golden Gophers advance to the "Frozen Four," expect that to change as Minnesota will be facing a tough North Dakota team when play resumes on April 10th.
That leaves
Ryan Graves (NYR 2013 4th) of the Val-d'Or Foreurs who will be facing the Drummondville Voltigeurs in the 2nd round of the QMJHL playoffs. The Foreurs will be the favorites in this series.
Troy Donnay (NYR 2013 UFA) of the Erie Otters as they will be facing the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds in the 2nd round of the OHL's Western Conference Playoffs. Erie should be favored in this series as well.
Mackenzie Skapski (NYR 2013 6th) of the Kootenay Ice will advance to face the Medicine Hat Tigers in the 2nd round of the WHL's Eastern Conference playoffs. Skapski lost his starting job due to some poor play will most likely get another chance down the road.
One last word on the Ranger prospects and that is the word is that Adam Tambellini is going to head to Hartford for the rest of their season signing an ATO. Tambellini because he left North Dakota of the NCAAs is not subject to the age requirement. Those in Calgary expect Tambellini to sign his Entry Level Contract with the Rangers and not return next season to the WHL.

Supreme Court Hears Arguments On California's Prop 8 And Defense Of Marriage Act
Police stand guard in front of the Supreme Court on March 27, 2013 in... News PhotoCourthouse,Guarding,Horizontal,International Landmark,Law,Legal System,Police Force,Supreme Court,US Supreme Court Building,USA,Washington DCPhotographer JEWEL SAMADCollection: AFP 2013 AFPPolice stand guard in front of the Supreme Court on March 27, 2013 in Washington, DC. The US Supreme Court tackled same-sex unions for a second day Wednesday, hearing arguments for and against the 1996 US law defining marriage as between one man and one woman. After the nine justices mulled arguments on a California law outlawing gay marriage on Tuesday, they took up a challenge to the constitutionality of the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). The 1996 law prevents couples who have tied the knot in nine states -- where same-sex marriage is legal -- from enjoying the same federal rights as heterosexual couples.

T-Mobile Kisses Up to BlackBerry Customers
There may not be many passionate BlackBerry fans out there, but it was probably a dumb idea to tick them off. Now T-Mobile CEO John Legere is doing his best to sound sincere in an open letter, promising to "fight" for T-Mobile's BlackBerry customers and offering them a $100 credit when they buy a phone -- any phone. Harumph. Legere is likely to get raspberries from the BlackBerry loyal.
Apr 4, 2014 4:06 PM PT
After racking up a number of successes, T-Mobile clearly made a misstep earlier this year, when it promoted Apple's iPhone 5 to its BlackBerry customers.
BlackBerry this week announced it would not renew T-Mobile's license to sell its products, which expires at the end of April. Now T-Mobile is now scrambling to keep its BlackBerry customers with an offer of a US$100 credit.
It is an ironic turn of events for T-Mobile and its CEO, John Legere, who has achieved remarkable gains responding to cellphone users' frustration over service offerings.
The company's rollout of its unlimited "Simple Choice" no-contract service plan, for example, fulfilled a long-held desire by many customers to escape being locked into a contract just to acquire a subsidized phone.
It offered a way for customers to make more frequent phone upgrades without being financially penalized by their contract, and it began offering unlimited data and texting around the world.
A Surprising Move
Therefore it is surprising that Legere could so badly misread how BlackBerry would react to a promotional email to its users highlighting the benefits of the iPhone as an alternative device. BlackBerry CEO John Chen called the iPhone 5s marketing promotion a "clearly inappropriate and ill-conceived" campaign.
Legere has expressed disappointment with BlackBerry's decision, and T-Mobile now is trying to forestall an exodus of its BlackBerry customers; on Thursday it announced a $100 credit for any new device, including the BlackBerry Q10 or the Z10, through the end of 2014. The company also promised BlackBerry customers continued service and operating system upgrades.
BlackBerry, for its part, says it will work with T-Mobile to make sure its customers on the network will not be left hanging, by providing them with the "best possible customer service."
Reading the Crackberry Bunch
T-Mobile is in a quandary, noted Ritch Blasi, SVP for mobile and wireless at Comunicano.
"Considering BlackBerry is primarily a business device, and T-Mobile is not necessarily known as a big player in enterprise, the 'crackberry' bunch can simply change to another carrier and probably get similar plans and prices," he told CRM Buyer.
T-Mobile could lose some high-value customers, but a good trade-in offer might be able to get them to stay, he said. Also, it is important to note that BlackBerry no longer has a lock on the business market anymore, "so T-Mobile should be able to retain some BlackBerry users who might be better served with another device."
Indeed, a case could be made that BlackBerry's withdrawal from T-Mobile's network may be the best thing that could have happened for BlackBerry customers.
"BlackBerry customers now have a choice of devices from T-Mobile, and it may be in their interests to carefully study the offer. It is unlikely BlackBerry will ever achieve the technological edge again in mobile communication," said Rich Hanley, associate professor and director of the graduate journalism program at Quinnipiac University.
"BlackBerry has always been the adult in the room of mobile communications -- but that is now a bug rather than a feature," he told CRM Buyer.
Either way, this particular group of customers should come out OK.
"Neither T-Mobile nor BlackBerry are going to totally turn their backs on customers. That's a poor business decision that would ultimately be detrimental to both companies," Blasi said. "Each will do what's best to protect their own image."

Submission 16.4 pct jump in online shopping on Christmas Day->
PolygamousRanchKid writes: A growing number of shoppers apparently need only the briefest of breaks before diving back in, especially if they can log in to shop. IBM found that online shopping jumped 16.4 percent on Christmas Day over last year, and the dollar amount of those purchases that were made using mobile devices leaped 172.9 percent. IBM tracks shopping at more than 500 websites other than Amazon.com, which is the largest. It found a huge increase in the number of shoppers making their purchases with iPhones, iPads and Android-powered mobile devices.

BRASHER FALLS - The past year has been a good one at the Tri-Town Community Center, with more recreational opportunities now available, according to the chairman of the Tri-Town Recreation Commission.
Weve done a couple of little projects in the back of our arena, Jeremiah D. Mahoney said.
A $10,000 grant from the local Lions Club to the Recreation Commission made one project possible, he said.
We put in a picnic area with picnic tables, grills and one handicapped picnic area. Its right down on the river by the trees. Its very nice, Mr. Mahoney said.
A new playground was also added to the landscape of the Tri-Town Community Center, and that was made possible through local donations, he said.
Weve been talking about doing a playground. We priced different playgrounds. Weve been doing things at the arena and around the softball field, but wanted to do something around the St. Regis River area, Mr. Mahoney said.
Volunteers cleaned up the area, but they were still lacking a playground. But not for long, he said.
The Head Start program had been located at St. Patricks Church Hall in Brasher Falls, but later moved to the St. Lawrence Central School District, leaving behind playground equipment, according to the Recreation Commission chairman.
When they did the playground was left there. We contacted them and they said they were going to get rid of it, but we could put a bid. We did put a bid in, Mr. Mahoney said.
As it turned out, their bid didnt matter because Head Start officials decided to donate the equipment to the Recreation Commission, he said.
In the end they called and said they were going to donate it to us, he said.
The playground equipment, which is geared for kids up to ages 7 or 8, is now installed.
We had it moved up to the site. Randy Thayer, a member of our rec board did a lot of the work. He pretty much took charge of getting it set up and getting it landscaped, Mr. Mahoney said.
The Tri-Town Recreation Commission was also the benefactor of other donations during the year, he said.
Rayona Thompson and Larry Phippen presented members of the Recreation Commission with a $900 donation. That donation included $700 that was left over from the Town-Town Triplets baseball organization and two donations of $100 each from the Knights of Columbus Auxiliary and the Winthrop American Legion Post 511 Auxiliary.
Rayona contacted David Stevens, one of the members of the rec board. She said they were involved with the Tri-Town Triplets baseball team which has been functioning for a number of years and had some money left over. That group made a donation, Mr. Mahoney said.
Plus she also got a couple of donations, one from the Knights of Columbus Auxiliary and one from the American Legion Auxiliary, he added.
That money will be used to purchase a bench that will be placed near the entry of the arena and a protective netting for the softball fields left field area.
Were going to buy a couple of benches to place around the area down there. We just want to make it kind of a family area. We have everything right there, Mr. Mahoney said.
They plan to hold a dedication in the spring for the groups that have donated to the local recreation cause, he said.
But they also plan to do more work in 2013.
We try to make some improvements every year. Were looking at adding a little storage building in the back. Were also looking at doing some upgrades to our ice-making equipment. We try to stay on top of things. You never know what comes up and moneys tight. Were trying to make the best use (of the money) as we can, Mr. Mahoney said. Were fortunate enough to get a lot of volunteer help. We get donations and raise money.
They also receive contributions from the towns of Brasher and Stockholm.
Without the two towns, one town couldnt do it, he said.
Mr. Mahoney said theyre always willing to accept more donations in memory of someone.
If anyone would like to donate money, we would like to place benches on the river bank area. This area is a work in progress, he said.
Anyone who wants to donate can contact Dave Stevens at 389-4965.

Sacramento 93, Clippers 80
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Wed, 11/29/06, 01:10am:
- A more aggressive Shaun who makes better decisions.
- The Clips doing more off the ball to get Elton some shots, and Elton taking the shots he gets.
- Mobley to start doing what we brought him here to do: Hit from beyond.
- Stop turning the ball over.
On top of that, the Clippers ripped down 20 offensive rebounds and, overall, beat the Kings on the boards, 56-44. Honestly, I'm at a loss to find a lot of offensive sequences in which the Clips didn't get the look they wanted. On the defensive end, I thought the Clippers could've done a better job closing the lane at times, and there were some lapses on weak side rotation, but for the most part, the perimeter rotation was solid, save Corey. Even Tim Thomas manned up, both on the wing and down low.
What I'd like to know is if there's a team who's missed 68 field goals in a game this season. 68. I mean, check this out. Look at those Xs in the paint. It looks like that ring 'n' glass bottle scam at the fair.
Shaun played big. He used his size and recognized just how vulnerable Bibby is if you take him off the dribble. He beautifully controlled the flow of the Clippers' offense. And you could see the nice follow-through on his jump shots. It's unseemly to find moral victories at this point in this team's development, but we've been up in Shaun's shit all season. Tonight he was fierce.
I'll say nothing about Maggette's game tonight - neither his shot selection nor his wretched help defense.
The Clippers will get another chance to win on the road in San Antonio a week from Friday. Until then, they and Washington (0-7) are the only winless teams away from home - and the Wizz get the Knicks and Philly in the next week.

You may have heard about the popular application and desktop program, Dragon Naturally Speaking. The app and program allow you to speak into the device, which will then read what you have said and do all of the typing for you. The new app, Dragon E-Mail, will allow you to speak into the device to compose emails, use contact names and also automatically enter subject lines for you. This is great for on the go emailing when you do not have time to sit down and type one out, but would like to pass along some very important information. Dragon is a program that has been utilized by many, and has continued to expand from one platform to another.
The official site for Dragon claims that using the app can make your typing up to five times as fast as it would be on a regular keyboard. There are a number of BlackBerry devices that will be able to receive the functionality of the app including the Rogers BlackBerry Bold 9000, Rogers Bold 9700 unlocked and the TELUS BlackBerry Storm 2.
The company first became known for their excellent desktop programs that allowed users to type using their voice instead a keyboard. Since that tiem they have released a plethora of different apps for a number of different devices including the unlocked iPhone 4 and Android platforms.
The app has received rave reviews on most app marketplaces, and its inclusion in the BlackBerry App World makes a lot of sense, since the Dragon E-Mail app seems as thought it would be of the biggest benefit to on the go businessmen, which is precisely the demographic that the BlackBerry was created for. The app is already available in the BlackBerry App World marketplace, and user reviews are being posted by users that have downloaded the program.

OMAHA, Neb. - The Creighton University baseball program has announced the signing of 12 players to National Letters of Intent during the early signing period, which concluded last week. In the biggest class of his tenure at Creighton, head coach Ed Servais will welcome an even mix of six junior college transfers and six high schoolers to the Bluejay staff in the fall of 2012. There are six pitchers, five position players and one utility player in the class, with three Nebraska natives, two each from Colorado and Oklahoma, and one from Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Iowa and Italy.
"This is a very important recruiting class for us," said Servais. "We have 13 seniors on this year's team so we needed to bring in some players that can contribute right away. We feel the college game is becoming more athletic and we needed to address that area and we feel we did. Overall, this is a very athletic group that has a chance to make adjustments to the college game very soon."
Below are the profiles of each individual, listed alphabetically:
Will Bamesberger - LHP/OF, Grand Island, Neb. (Grand Island HS)
Will Bamesberger is currently finishing his high school career at Grand Island High School. The left-handed hurler was named to his Grand Island American Legion summer baseball team, picking up his team's Most Valuable Player honors after leading his GI Home Federal team to the Nebraska state runner-up and a berth in the American Legion Central Plains Regional. He recorded 77 strikeouts in only 62 innings pitched over the summer, hitting .358 with 15 doubles. Bamesberger's go-to pitch will be his fastball, which he unleashes in the mid 80's.
Coach Servais on Bamesberger: "Will has a chance to be a two way player for us. He is a very good LHP that will get a long look in the outfield and at the plate."
Federico Castagnini - INF, Verona, Italy (Barton County CC, Kan.)
A solid defensive player, Federico Castagnini will come to Creighton as a
versitile infielder. In his freshman season at Barton County Community
College, Castagnini led the team with 139 assists from his shortstop
position. He led the team with 19 stolen bases, posting 10 doubles with
a .294 average in 2011.
Coach Servais on Castagnini: "Federico should fit quickly into our system of play. He is a very solid infielder who can handle the bat well."
Jake Edwards - LHP, Hillsboro, Kan. (Cowley County Community College)
Jake Edwards is joining former Cowley County CC players Chance Ross and Chase Webb, signing with the Creighton Bluejays following standout seasons for the Tigers. Edwards earned a spot in the starting rotation as a freshman, finishing with a 7-1 record on the mound. He posted a 3.68 earned run average in his first season as a Tiger, helping lead the team to a 38-11 overall record. Edwards will again be counted on as a starter this season, looking to improve upon a fastball that is already in the high 80's.
Coach Servais on Edwards: "Jake will have an opportunity to pitch in our rotation right away. He is a left handed pitcher who can throw three pitches for strikes."
Ryan Fitzgerald - SS, Oakpark, Ill. (Fenwick HS)
Named a Perfect Game All-American, as well as a Top 1000 recruit, Ryan Fitzgerald will come to Creighton as a player who can make an immediate impact. The Chicago Sun Times Pre-Season Top-100 Prep Player finished his junior season with a .389 batting average for Fenwick, leading his team in triples, home runs, runs and stolen bases. He has been labeled as the 6th best short stop in the state of Illinois by Prep Baseball Report, and was also named to the Chicago Catholic League All-Conference Team.
Coach Servais on Fitzgerald: "When I saw Ryan play I was very impressed with his actions. He has good feet, good hands and a quick arm. He should be able to make the adjustments to the college game very quickly."
Austin Groth - RHP, South Sioux City, Neb. (South Sioux City HS)
Austin Groth highlights the pitching staff recruits, coming in as a two-time Omaha World Herald Class B first Team All-Stater and two-time Lincoln Journal Star Class B First Team All-Stater. The South Sioux City native finished his junior campaign (Legion and school baseball combined) with a 12-3 record in 81 2/3 innings pitched, guided mainly by a high 80's fastball that has been clocked over 90 mph. Groth collected 144 strikeouts against just 26 free bases handed out. He also finished the season with four saves. Groth also played a key role in South Sioux City's back-to-back basketball titles, earning All-State and All-Metro honors after averaging 19.5 points as a junior and 17.4 points as a sophomore.
Coach Servais on Groth: "Austin is a very athletic right handed pitcher with a big upside. He has the chance to develop into a power arm."
Nick Highberger - RHP, Rye, Colo. (Rye HS)
Nick Highberger led his Rye High School T-Bolts to the Class 2A state baseball title, posting a perfect 8-0 record on the mound during his junior season. He finished with 70 strikeouts in 46 innings of work for the T-Bolts, compiling a 2.10 ERA. Highberger also played summer baseball for Cherry Creek, finishing with a 9-1 record on the mound. Highberger throws a fastball that is in the upper 80's and touches 90.
Coach Servais on Highberger: "Nick throws a heavy sinker. We have been looking hard for a pitcher that can sink the ball because it will play well with how we play defense. Nick could be either a starter or work out of the bullpen for us."
Max Ising - RHP, Lee's Summit, Mo. (Neosho County Community College)
Max Ising has made his name as the closer for Neosho County Community College, finishing last season with 29 strikeouts in 20 2/3 innings of work and a 3.73 earned run average. Ising made 23 appearances on the mound, picking up four saves in his freshman season. The 5'11 right-hander will again be the closer for the 2012 season, using mainly a fastball in the upper 80's and adding a fierce slider.
Coach Servais on Ising: "Matt should be a big part of our bullpen in 2013. We lose three guys out there so Max will have a big role in 2013."
Ben Lahn - OF, Westminster, Colo. (Lamar Community College)
A power-hitter for the Lamar Community College Runnin' Lopes, Ben Lahn hit .385 as a freshman with 10 doubles, 16 home runs and 52 runs driven in. He finished tied for 4th in the nation in homeruns a season ago. He finished the season with a .791 slugging percentage and an overall .385 batting average. For his performance on the field, Lahn was named to the All-Region 9 Team.
Coach Servais on Lahn: "We were looking for a middle-of-the-order type of bat and feel Ben will have a chance to fill that role. Ben plays in a wood bat spring league and put up some great numbers."
Kevin Lamb - C, Tulsa, Okla. (Eastern Oklahoma Community College)
Currently in his first season at Eastern Oklahoma, Kevin Lamb signed an NLI with Oral Roberts out of high school and redshirted in 2011 before making the switch to EOCC. A four year starting catcher at Bixby High School, he helped lead the team to a 5A state championship during his sophomore season. He was named to the Tulsa World All-Metro team in 2010 and an All-State selection his senior season. Lamb also lettered in football and made two state championship appearances.
Coach Servais on Lamb: "Kevin is a very good defensive catcher with some leadership skills. He will be expected to contribute right away."
Sam Norman - LHP, Des. Moines, Iowa (Roosevelt HS)
A kid with a number of Creighton connections, including a sister on the women's basketball team (Riley Norman) and a high school coach who played for the Bluejays (Ryan Fitzgerald), Sam Norman will pad Creighton's pitching staff upon graduation from Roosevelt High School. The southpaw didn't pitch in his junior season due to an injury, but still earned Second Team All State honors at first base after finishing the season with a .398 batting average, 16 doubles and just one strikeout. When healthy, Norman is effective on the mound by throwing a fastball in the mid to upper 80's.
Coach Servais on Norman: "Sam is a good sized left handed pitcher that has a big upside. When healthy, Sam has a chance to be a power left handed pitcher. We wanted to have some balance in our pitching staff and with Sam we have three left handed pitchers in this recruiting class."
Garrett Schaede - 3B, Owasso, Okla. (Neosho County Community College)
Garrett Schaede joins current Neosho CC teammate Max Ising by signing letters of intent with Creighton University. The infielder batted .325 as a freshman in 2011, hitting 10 homeruns and driving in 48 runs. He was named to the All-Metro Team his senior year of high school at Owasso High School.
Coach Servais on Schaede: "Garrett has a chance to be one of those power corner infielders that we would like to develop. He is a very strong and athletic player that will continue to get better because he has very good work habits."
Matt Warren - RHP, Omaha, Neb. (Skutt Catholic High School)
A dominanting right handed hurler, Matt Warren joins his hometown Bluejays as the lone Omaha recruit of the class. He led all classes in strikeouts in the spring of 2011, mowing down 88 batters and posting a 1.86 ERA. In 56 1/3 innings of work, Warren issued just 11 walks compared to his 88 K's. He was named First Team Class B All State by both the Omaha World Herald and the Lincoln Journal Star following the 2011 season. He added another 52 strikeouts in 50 2/3 innings of work during the summer legion season. Warren was selected to represent Team Midwest for the 17-under USA National Team Series in Cary, N.C. His fastball sits in the mid to upper 80's.
Coach Servais on Warren: "Matt is one of the top local players. Has a very athletic and quick arm that has a feel for pitching. For a high school pitcher, Matt has a good command of three pitches and should make the jump to the college game quickly."

Critter Control has Oregon offices in Portland
Birds are an important part of our natural environment in the Oregon area. As predators, they feed on insects, rodents, worms, fish and countless other animals. Game birds, song birds, hawks and other bird species contribute to outdoor recreation and the overall enjoyment of nature.
Because of these contributions, birds are afforded considerable protection by laws, regulations and public sentiment that controls what kind of bird control can be implemented. Public relations are an integral part of any bird proof and bird control project and Critter Control in the Oregon area will educate our clients and the public why a particular bird control or bird proof program or method is necessary.
The three birds that most often become pests in the United States in urban Oregon areas are pigeons, starlings, and house sparrows. If you have ever tried to get rid of pigeons, you know just how difficult bird control and bird proofing can be. Other birds, from hawks to swallows, may occasionally cause unexpected and unusual pest problems and require bird control. When blackbirds and crows roost in suburban areas they become pests and result in bird control or bird proofing. Woodpeckers may peck holes into house siding looking for insects, to make nest cavities and to communicate with other woodpeckers. Seagulls can feed on food-plants, and they roost and nest on large flat roofs with crushed stone.
Birds may be beneficial, neutral or harmful to man's interests, depending upon time, location and activity, and certain birds (sparrows, woodpeckers, waterfowl, pigeons and black birds) are more likely to become pests and require bird proofing and bird control. Pest bird situations that require bird control and bird proofing include:
The best bird control and bird proof approaches emphasize deterrents, exclusion or modification of buildings. Oregon Critter Control's knowledgeable technicians have several bird control methods to bird proof your home or help to get rid of birds that congregate on municipal and commercial buildings in urban settings. We will work with you to bird proof your property in a humane method with a bird control plan. We use other bird deterrents in rural and agricultural settings for bird control. For more information on bird control and bird proofing, please contact us at 1-800-CRITTER.

Though a SUNY official lauded the Canton and Potsdam campuses for cutting costs by combining and sharing services, he said they still fall short of expectations and are not allowed yet to start searching for new presidents.
Canton and Potsdam, for the record, have done an incredible job putting plans together to make this happen; they just arent done yet, said Brian G. Hutzley, SUNY vice chancellor for financial services. He said the two schools have made progress diverting money from administration to educational expenses.
Last year, SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher directed three pairs of SUNY campuses Delhi and Morrisville; SUNY IT at Utica and Cobleskill; and Canton and Potsdam to share more administrative services, including their presidencies.
SUNY Central stepped back from the Canton-Potsdam shared presidency after protests from the Canton college community. In a compromise, the schools were told that if they made measurable progress in sharing services, they could have their own presidents.
Mr. Hutzley referred to a November 2011 board of trustees resolution stating that the office of Chancellor Zimpher would help each campus search for its own unique president if the schools showed a 10 percentage point increase in the amount of their budget devoted directly to instructional spending and fully aligned their administrative staffs. The resolution set benchmarks for shared administration in areas including but not limited to institutional research, human resources, finance, accounting, purchasing, billing, budget and facilities.
SUNYs role, Mr. Hutzley said, was to suggest ways to look at shared services and to ask that administrative costs to be reduced, not dictate how the colleges would do so.
This whole process is campus-driven. SUNY has been a partner and an adviser, he said. The way that I look at it, you could have a lot of the administrative functions as a shared service, and that will work itself out. There are a lot of models out there about how you oversee them and how you charge for them.
In July, the campuses submitted a report to the chancellors office showing some progress on the benchmarks.
At the board of trustees meeting last week, SUNY Provost David K. Lavallee said that the Delhi, Morrisville, Cobleskill and SUNY IT campuses would receive permission to start their presidential searches next year but that SUNY Canton and SUNY Potsdam would have to wait.
The campus recommendation is to work for further alignment of administrations between the two campuses over the next three years and SUNY system administration supports that goal, he said.
Earlier in the week, Canton town officials lobbied the SUNY board of trustees, saying the school had met the shared services benchmarks, but Mr. Hutzley disputed that.
They have not hit their benchmarks. People keep ignoring the specific things that were in the resolution. A few of those have gotten done, he said. For some reason, the folks at Canton keep stating it was five percent, but it was ten percent, and specific things need to be integrated.
Mr. Hutzley said the board of trustees has not yet decided how to deal with the campuses presidencies going forward. He said he wasnt sure whether the schools would share a president or not.
That is a Board of Trustees decision, he said.
At SUNY Canton, Carli S. Schiffner is serving as interim president after Joseph L. Kennedy stepped down in August. At SUNY Potsdam, President John F. Schwaller recently announced his retirement effective July 31.
At some point, SUNY will ask for a progress update on Canton and Potsdam shared services, at which time a decision might be made.
There will definitely need to be another update and additional progress, Mr. Hutzley said.
