Read: Issues With Having A Condensed Schedule
At ESPN Insider, Craig Custance writes about how the NHL could have a condensed schedule if they strike a deal for a new CBA and how they would have to be careful with how it is configured.
The NBA played a 66 game schedule last season that started on Christmas Day. Compared to this season, the Knicks will have played 27 games by Christmas Day.
Custance spoke with someone in the NBA who said that in retrospect the 66 game season was a mistake due to the amount of injuries that were suffered.
The NHL played a 48 game schedule starting on January 20, 1995 after the first half of the season was wiped out.
Pierre LeBrun writes at ESPN.com that the NHL is willing to use all of June to fit in a reduced schedule.
LeBrun adds that the league will try and cram as many games as they can into a reduced schedule, but not have the type of schedule that the NBA did.

LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y., November 30, 2010 – When veteran cameraman Steve Angel settled in to shoot Game 4 of the 2010 American League Championship Series at Yankee Stadium in New York on the evening of October 19, he had no idea that his Canon DIGISUPER 86xs long-field HD zoom lens was about to become the game's big story. But when the score was tied 2-2, a broken bat flew through the air, shattering the protective filter on the front of the lens and scratching the front element.
TBS' decision to run select replay shots for the rest of the inning from the damaged, but still operational, HD lens – which showed viewers a clear hole surrounded by blurry, multiple fracture lines – provided vivid evidence of the durability of Canon optics. For mobile production provider Corplex Mobile Television, the incident also confirmed the remarkable customer service and support that Canon provides."This was something that people hadn't seen before,�? said Scott West, President of Chicago-based Corplex Mobile Television. "It was a high-level production with a lot of eyes on it, and TBS made the most of the unusual circumstance by showing the replays through the damaged lens. People aren't always aware of the dangers that are out there. This made the hazards of live sports coverage immediately apparent.�?

Yes, recommended to a friend.Pretty rug, but very rough October 31, 2013
"I ordered this rug for my living room as I have a 4 year old and wanted something durable. It seems very durable but is too rough to sit and play on. I am moving the rug to our office and will purchase a softer rug for the living room as we sit on the floor a lot. The rug is attractive, very neutral in color, not the honey color it seemed on the website. Although I think the rug is very high quality and attractive I would not order it again for the living area because it is too rough. Would be great for high traffic areas."

Mets Could Shut Down Jon Niese
According to the New York Post, the Mets might put an innings limit on Jon Niese this season, and could shut him down before the end of the year.
Jerry Manuel told the Post he is not a proponent of limiting innings for a pitcher, but will listen to what pitching coach Dan Warthen has to say regarding the issue, as Warthen said before last night's game "You don't want to burn [Niese's] arm out.".
I think it's important to preserve the health of Niese's arm, but I think this speaks to the problem with limiting pitch counts, and I think teams need to take pitchers out when they're tired, and not necessarily when they reach a pitch count. That said, if Niese feels good, I believe he should go out there until he is physically incapable of doing so, if that even happens this season.
To me, it's all about how Niese reaches 100 pitches in a game or how he might reach 175 innings or how ever many he throws this year. If he reaches both by grinding and laboring through games, then yeah it might be a good idea to take him out, or shut him down. But if he continues to cruise like he has for much of this season, I say let her rip.
Niese, who is scheduled to pitch tonight in Pittsburgh, has gone 7-5 with a 3.38 ERA in 133 innings pitched this year, averaging just over six innings per start, and missed time towards the end of May after tweaking his surgically repaired hamstring.

CANTON The St. Lawrence County Industrial Development Agency is moving this week to Canton Industrial Park the first of two tenants in the business development the IDA created which frees up space in the countys Human Services building.
Through the Regional Economic Development Council, the IDA was named the recipient of a $470,000 state award to pay for water, sewer and utilities and for building construction.
The award enables us to put infrastructure in place that makes this location competitive, IDA Executive Director Patrick J. Kelly said. When the IDA, village and county reached agreement that we would take over this parcel, we did so with the plan of developing a business park. The application was done to fulfill that plan.
Along with the IDA, the other tenant moving into 19 Commerce Lane is a microbrewery developed by Kenneth M. Hebb and his wife, Katrina G.
St. Lawrence Brewery was also included in the recent round of economic development grant awards and will be the recipient of $65,000 for an energy-recovery system in the brew house and to purchase a fuel efficient vehicle for sales staff.
It seems like the kind of business that has a lot of potential, Mr. Kelly said. They are in the process of moving in.
The building has an additional 6,000 square feet available.
Weve had some discussions with people but theres nothing final. Its one step at a time, Mr. Kelly said. The rest of the park needs to be developed.
Much of the IDAs furniture and boxes were moved Wednesday from the Canton Human Services building on Route 310. Staff began unpacking and setting up their new home Thursday. Telephones, computers and other information technology will come next.
Its a quiet week in terms of business activity, Mr. Kelly said. Well start the year fresh.
The IDAs move leaves 3,590 highly visible square feet available in the Human Services building, where it will stay vacant while the county completes a space study.
In the short run, that will be empty, Governmental Services Director Michael J. Cunningham said. It makes sense to get it back in productive use.
Once the countys Certified Home Health Agency closes, Public Health will also need less space in the building.
The county has gathered information from its departments on who needs what such as confidential meeting rooms, additional storage or a more efficient layout and has some long-standing issues, including handicapped accessibility for the Board of Elections, now in the Surrogates Building.
The county held off on having recommendations from architects until the 2013 budget was finished.
We didnt know if there would be a lot of changes in department size, Mr. Cunningham said.
Shuffling office space can be tricky because some departments prefer to be close to each other, such as Probation and the courts.
Thats probably the biggest challenge, needed space and adjacencies, Mr. Cunningham said.

This guy is dumb.
I don't have one yet, but I got some hands-on time with the Nexus 4 today. Ho-lee shit is it nice. I want. I want it now.
I'm glad I got mine for free, because it's sort of a step sideways compared to the Galaxy Nexus. The screen is nice, but washed out; I like the added width of the screen but I don't like the grip of the device. The thing also runs really, really hot.
I'd actually get a Galaxy Nexus instead of the Nexus 4, if you can find one. The performance delta is imperceptible unless you're playing games (the Mali T604 GPU in the Nexus is really fast) and the device feels a lot more friendly. Better first-party accessories, too--a big factor in my dislike of using it as a daily driver is not being able to get a car dock.
(It's still the best Android phone of the current generation, but the current generation isn't much better than the previous generation in most respects.)

When your long term medical needs go beyond the ordinary
At McLaren Bay Special Care you'll find
In short, everything needed, in one special hospital, to help patients recover from complex, lengthy illnesses.
McLaren Bay Special Care is a long term acute care hospital that specializes in patients who require a 25-day or longer length of stay. We are fully licensed by the Michigan Department of Community Health.
We use an interdisciplinary team approach to care, including weekly team conferences and a comprehensive family discharge meeting.
Small by design:
Our 31-bed long term care hospital means that patients and their families get to know their caregivers by name. The staff is cross-trained so that the person who does EKGs also draws blood, and may even answer the telephone. Patient-focused care means we put all the patient's needs first.
Our staff combines compassion with professional competence. Our nurses have the same training and advance skills that you would expect in an Intensive Care Unit of a regular hospital, and our therapists are at the top of their fields. All staff RNs are Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) trained. Clearly, it's our employees who make McLaren Bay Special Care a place of healing.
At McLaren Bay Special Care, the atmosphere is warm and friendly, not "institutional." Our modern décor features soft, gentle colors and every patient has a room with a view of the outdoors. TV and phone are included at no extra charge. Each room has a communication board, a clock, and a calendar to help keep our patients oriented. It's an environment designed to enhance healing.
McLaren Bay Special Care is a long term acute care facility dedicated to helping those special patients whose medical needs go beyond the ordinary. It's a service that has never before been available in our area, and we are proud to lead the way into the future.

We compiled this list with a particularly dapper gentleman in mind, the kind who sneaks a manicure, buys products because he digs the label, but still expects what's inside to work. Whether you already know one--or are hoping to encourage a less put-together dude to get it together--the following gifts are sure to please.Geo F. Trumper Eucris Hair Dressing ($27)
This century-old formula will add shine and hold to any man's hair, but the mineral oils make it best for brunettes. Bonus? It's just slightly scented with violets.
The Art of Shaving Seven Piece Manicure Set ($160)
You can't expect every guy to make time for a manicure, but gift him this set and he can take care of his nails himself. It's like a shinier, fancier tool kit.
Malin and Goetz Cannabis Candle ($52)
There's nothing sweet about this candle. The earthy scent, burgundy wax, and frosted glass will fit right into any bachelor pad.
Baxter of California Double Edge Safety Razor ($60)
Just because it's practical doesn't mean it can't look great on the bathroom sink.
Musgo Real Shaving Cream ($13) in Lime Basil
Because he'll need something to use with that razor--and this olive green tube looks like something Ernest Hemingway might keep on hand.
D.S. & Durga Cowboy Grass ($96)
This small Brooklyn perfumery's gained a cult following in just a few short years. Cowboy Grass smells like it sounds--a masculine, smoky scent filled with wild grass, thyme, and pure Haitian vetiver.
Ursa Major Fortifying Face Balm ($36)
This 100% natural moisturizer gives your guy the hydrating, anti-aging benefits of your own skincare routine in one fell swoop. It also packs antiseptic ingredients and calming properties to fight razor burn.
Ernest Supplies Tool Kit ($75)
This waxed cotton tool belt might be the manliest dopp kit ever made. Instead of hammers and nails, it's packed with the brand's hit products, including Matte Moisturizer, Cooling Shave Creme, and Soap-Free Gel Face Wash. (No matter how much he loves it, don't let him wear it.)

|Jewelry is expected to be a popular Valentine's Day gift this year.
Before next Tuesday, couples in the United States will spend near $13.7 billion on Valentine's Day gifts. The average consumer will spend around $100.
Men spend slightly more, averaging $135.67, while women are expected to spend half that, averaging $68.64. Those figures come from a survey released last week by the National Retail Federation.
Finding the right gift is difficult for many. But traditional gifts are popular as ever.
"When it comes to shopping for their special someone on Valentine's Day, consumers turn to more sentimental gifts," said NRF president Tracy Mullin. "Retailers know that traditional Valentine's gifts, including candy, cards, jewelry and flowers will remain holiday favorites and they stock their shelves accordingly."
This year, more men are expected to buy jewelry than last year. That increase in sales will likely result in lower sales in flowers.
The survey showed that 62 percent of consumers plan to purchase a greeting card. Almost half will buy candy, with almost the same amount spending money on an evening out.
Roughly a third are expected to buy flowers for their significant other. Gift certificates are not as popular for Valentine's Day as they are on other holidays. Only 10 percent of consumers are expected to purchase gift cards or gift certificates. That is likely due to the fact that many people try to find a more sentimental gift and feel that a gift certificate won't show the same affection as other gifts.
|Always a popular favorite, nearly 50 percent of Valentine's Day consumers will buy candy. Approximately one third will buy flowers.
In addition to spending an average of $64.63 on a significant other or spouse, consumers are expected to spend $20.74 on other family members, $5.06 on friends, $3.52 on school classmates and teachers and $2.56 on co-workers. A final category which includes babysitters and neighbors is expected to cost consumers $4.38.
Spending is expected to decrease for a third year by young adults ages 18 to 24. This age group is likely to spend $48.89 this year, down from $83.50 in 2005 and $154.65 in 2004.
"These days young adults are coming up with creative, inexpensive ways to celebrate Valentine's Day with their special someone without breaking the bank," said Phil Rist, Vice President of Strategy for BIGresearch, the research firm hired to conduct the survey. "Over the past few years we have seen the bulk of the Valentine's spending shift from young adults to middle-aged consumers."
Middle-aged consumers, however, are expected to spend $128.78 each, up from $118.11 last year and $88.96 in 2004.
The survey also showed some interesting facts about spending habits on Valentine's Day:
Consumers purchased an estimated 180 million roses for Valentine's Day in 2005 with 74 percent of rose purchases for Valentine's Day being made by men, according to the Society of American Florists.
Valentine's Day is the third most popular card-sending holiday behind Christmas and Father's Day, according to the National Retail Federation.
More than 36 million heart-shaped boxes of chocolate will be sold for Valentine's Day, according to the National Confectioner's Association.

What Is Constipation?
Constipation—difficult, infrequent or absent bowel movements—is one of the most common health problems associated with a pet's digestive system. Telltale signs, such as dry, hard stools and straining when trying to defecate, can also be an indicator of other disorders, including hypothyroidism. Another symptom of this disorder is the passage of mucus when a dog attempts to defecate.
There are various reasons why a dog may be constipated:
- Not enough fiber in his diet
- Lack of exercise
- Blocked or abscessed anal sacs
- Enlarged prostate gland
- Excessive self-grooming can also cause large amounts of hair to collect in the stool
- Ingested gravel, stones, bones, dirt, plants or pieces of toys, etc. caught in the intestinal tract
- Matted hair or a tumor at the anus causing an obstruction
- Side effect of medication
- Hernia
- Orthopedic problem that causes pain when a dog positions himself to defecate
- Neurologic disorder
- Dehydration due to other illness
How Can I Tell if My Dog Is Constipated?
If your dog has not had a bowel movement in over two days or if he strains, crouches or cries out when attempting to defecate, you should see your veterinarian right away.
Note: These signs may also be symptoms of a urinary tract problem, so it's important that you see your vet to determine the cause.
Which Dogs Are Susceptible to Constipation?
Elderly pets often suffer from infrequent or difficult bowel movements. However, the condition can occur in any dog who doesn't eat adequate amounts of fiber, get enough exercise or suffers from one or more of the causes of constipation.
How Can I Treat My Dog's Constipation?
Depending on what's causing your dog's constipation, your vet may recommend one or several of the following treatments:
- A stool softener or other laxative agent
- Medication to increase the contractile strength of the large intestine
- Adding fiber to your dog's diet with canned pumpkin, wheat bran or a product such as Metamucil
- A veterinarian-prescribed, high-fiber diet
- An increase in exercise
- An enema (administered by a professional, not at home, please)
What Can Happen If Constipation Goes Untreated?
If your dog's constipation is not alleviated, obstipation—the inability to empty his colon on his own—can occur. In this state, the colon is packed with an uncomfortably large amount of feces, causing unproductive straining, lethargy, appetite loss and possibly even vomiting.

New York Rangers vs Philadelphia Flyers
Sunday, 12:30 p.m.
Madison Square Garden
Record: 31-25-4
Record: 38-15-5
Feb. 20, the Rangers return home to take on the Flyers. The Rangers, 2-1 over
their last 3, look to avenge their most recent loss, Friday night against the
Devils. Though New York fought hard and played an extremely strong game, the
team was ultimately unable to overcome its one mistake, and suffered a 1-0
loss. The Flyers are coming off a Friday-night loss as well, as they
surrendered a late lead to the Hurricanes for a 3-2 loss. Both teams will be
looking to redeem themselves this afternoon.
the Rangers, both Brandon Dubinsky and Marian Gaborik had four-game points
streaks snapped on Friday night. The Flyers' Daniel Briere has scored four
points over his last two games. Rangers' goalie Henrik Lundqvist has been exceptionally
sharp lately, especially against the Devils on Friday. It is up to him to lead
this team back on to the winning track.
Friday, the Flyers were without captain Brad Richards, who was suffering from
the flu. He should be available to play today. The Rangers continue to be
without forward and captain Chris Drury and forward Ruslan Fedotenko.
is the fourth meeting of the season between the Rangers and the Flyers.
Philadelphia has won all three of the previous matches, and all in convincing
fashion. It will be exciting to
see if the Rangers can turn it around and take advantage of their own recent
good play, and pull out a win against the Eastern-Conference leaders.

True Match Super-Blendable Makeup SPF 17 Sunscreen
True Match Super Blendable Makeup SPF 17 is L'Oreal's best foundation for normal to very oily skin.
Visible Lift Color Lift Blush
L'Oreal pitches this as a blush that 'contours and illuminates cheekbones for a more radiant, youthful-looking complexion.'
Add to Faves?
L'Oreal Paris At-A-Glance
Strengths: Budget-friendly prices; good makeup removers; wide assortment of self-tanning options; one of the best, most comprehensive makeup collections at the drugstore, with superb options in almost every category; the mascaras are a tough act to follow.
Weaknesses: Jar packaging hinders some of the skincare formulas; many of their skincare formulas contain problematic amounts of fragrance and/or other irritants; exaggerated anti-aging claims.
L'Oreal's extensive makeup collection retains its stature as one of the better selections at the drugstore, though they have stiff competition from Revlon and, in some cases, sister company Maybelline New York. In recent years L'Oreal has made significant strides with foundation shades, powder textures, concealers, and, of course, superlative mascaras that rarely fail to impress. Their lipsticks are excellent and you will find many L'Oreal makeup products have a Lancome counterpart, and that the differences are minor—if there are any at all.
L'Oreal's displays in many drugstores reflect better-organized products and shade categories (though testers are still scarce). Given the number of lipsticks they sell, it only makes sense to put them in color families so consumers have a better shopping experience. Their True Match products are also sensibly laid out, but the rest of the foundations aren't as organized, likely due to the smaller selection of shades. Speaking of foundations, L'Oreal has made further strides by offering more that provide sufficient UVA protection. Revlon still has the edge for consistently launching impressive foundations with sunscreen, but at least L'Oreal is (finally) catching up.
The bottom line is that every category of L'Oreal's makeup has some winning (and in some cases, benchmark-setting) products.
Unfortunately, despite the brands' enormous presence in the beauty industry, L'Oreal's moisturizers and treatment products are a nearly all unremarkable and repetitive. When it comes to moisturizers or serums, just about anything from Dove, Olay, Neutrogena, or Aveeno is preferred. L'Oreal does well with most of their cleansers, along with scrubs and self-tanning products, but given the widespread availability and financial resources of this line, they could be doing so much more. The good news is their makeup has made major strides and now ranks as the best overall color collection at the drugstore—imagine the results if their skin care followed suit.

Reporter: Claire Doan
TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) – Danny Murphy died Saturday when his truck rolled over into the Pantano Wash – an accident his family said only occurred because someone dropped the ball on maintaining safety.
A big question in all of this: Whose responsibility was it to ensure the safety of the construction site? The subcontractor – Harvey Trucking Inc.? Or Pima County, which is in charge of the project?
KGUN9 News reported that Harvey Trucking had no violations with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. But KGUN9 News kept looking, and found a slew of problems – according to two other federal agencies.
Family and friends remember 44-year-old Danny Murphy as a down-to-earth guy who never dressed up and loved working on trucks. But it was ultimately a dump truck that crush him in his last moments, before it rolled off the bank's edge and into the Pantano Wash. Murphy's mother-in-law said he spoke of that fear for a week.
"He had been telling me about going up and down the hill, and it was so unsafe. He said, 'There's no guardrail there whatsoever. If that truck shifts and rolls down I'm a goner,'" Glenda DePew told KGUN9 News.
9 On Your Side went to Harvey Trucking yesterday, but the company declined an interview. So reporter Claire Doan continued to dig, and found that Harvey Trucking has a history of violations with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, which prevents commercial, vehicle-related injuries and deaths. In about the last two years, Harvey trucking rated 72% for "unsafe driving." Officals there said anything over 65% alarms the agency for an inspection. And for vehicle maintenance, the company got 78.5%, which is 1.5% shy of a federal check-up.
But that's not all. The Mine Safety and Health Administration shows five violations in the last four years. Harvey Trucking was fined for inadequate: safety belts and lines; hazard training; horns and back-up alarms; and safety defects, examination, correction and records.
Those who knew Murphy said he was an experienced truck driver.
"He's been driving for 20 odd years. He's been around the block and the country," said Pastor Cliff Lawton.
KGUN9 News called Pima County and went to its building. A spokesperson told us someone in Risk Management could discuss in general terms the safety of county construction sites, but called us half an hour later to say the county won't comment due to pending litigation. Another county representative called an hour later to put us in touch with an attorney – but in the end, no one was available to discuss the accident.
Murphy's family said Harvey Trucking and Pima County shouldn't be silent if they have nothing to hide.
"I feel that they're all wrong. It's not Danny's fault. I think Danny did everything he knew to be safe," Depew said.
Murphy did not have life insurance. Depew said Harvey Trucking offered to pay $3,000 – which she said is not enough to cover funeral expenses.
Anybody who wants to help the family could go to a Wells Fargo Bank and donate to the "Danny Murphy Memorial Fund."

As Nicholas Lemann
Invisible Man
July 01, 2002
Uh oh. I am standing in the doorway of a hotel banquet hall, searching the room for Howard Dean, the governor of Vermont and Democratic presidential hopeful. He's here to attend a local Greek Independence Day celebration--to give a few remarks, to march in a parade, and, perhaps, to make some political contacts that might help in the 2004 New Hampshire primary. It's an informal gathering, and when I called Dean's press secretary a few days ago, she suggested I just show up as the luncheon was winding down and pull him aside to chat.

Drummer's Edict
My band was playing at a dinner/dance club one summer in the late 80's. The first set was pretty mild for the dinner crowd and we'd build up to a great rock set. Well this particular night, the manager had a problem with our volume. Our drummer was a large man, 6'-4" about 275 lbs, and abrasive as a brillo pad. We called him King, and he was the epitome of a hard rock drummer: he loved to ROCK!
The club owner asked our drummer to play quiet, a few times, finally asking him "Don't you have some brushes or something?"
The King replied in his best Andrew Dice Clay attitude, "What, do you want me to paint something?"
Not Funny
In the early eighties, I was just a kid in high school playing drums for a band of college guys. They were all pretty good friends, and got on well. The bass player/bandleader was an exercise equipment salesman.
We were playing a huge corporate event outdoors, and for some reason the bass player and guitar player were arguing off and on the whole day. All was going well, when suddenly I saw the bass player lean into the guitar player and say something to him in the middle of a tune. The next thing I saw was the two of them fist fighting on stage, then rolling around on the ground wrestling. I could not believe what I was seeing. About a minute later, they picked their instruments back up and continued playing.
After the show, I asked the guitar player what the bass player had said. The guitar player's father had lost his legs due to diabetes years prior, and was in a wheelchair. The bass player was so mad at the guitar player, he leaned over to him mid-song and said, "hey, ask your father if he would be interested in buying a treadmill from me." Holy s@#*%. This was the most distasteful event that ever happened to me at a show, and one I will never forget.
An Open Letter to the Mayor of Amateurville (Email Exchange)
We still would like to have you on bass, but help us out a little.
You have the song list; how familiar are you with those songs?
Will you be able to comfortably lay down the groove for these tunes (in --singer--'s key signatures) or is it going to sound like amateurville? The end of November is only two or three weeks away from December 11th. And Thanksgiving will throw another wrench into it, because no one will want to rehearse during that week. So, how much time does that give us?
We are all busy, too. Our lives are full. But, each of us makes time to rehearse with the band because we care about how it is going to sound.
Yet, as I said, we still want to have you on this job. --Singer-- and I like you as a person, and we think you are a superb bassist.
Will you commit to performing with us on December 11? Can you assure us that you will be well-prepared? Will you rehearse with us at least three times before the gig?
Please e-mail us your response.
I've always liked you both as people also, but this isn't about personalities. What it is about is that I don't have any free evenings to give you. I'm not just busy, I'm really busy! It's the nature of my business this time of year. Besides, with three rehearsals this gig becomes a $50 gig on a Sat. in December! I won't even address the 'amateurville' comment.
I think you would be more comfortable with someone else who can find the time to rehearse. Best of luck to you.
Dear Mr. Patitucci,
I meant no offense by using the term "amateurville".
I was in no way implying that you could ever sound like an amateur.
We know you could walk on stage and blow away any other bass player on the planet. Please forgive the further offense of even suggesting that you would need to rehearse. And to not even get paid for it -- heaven forbid! How foolish of me!
Thank you, Mr. Patitucci, for even deigning to consider working this job with us.
So long, from "amateurville",
An open letter to the Mayor of Amateurville:
Your last e-mail is proof positive of your amateur status. Any other professional would have said 'I understand that your time is valuable, and limited,' but you're NOT a professional. The only reason any decent players would consider playing with you is the money, and the fact that --singer-- isn't a bad singer. Other players (good players) that I have confided in about your NEED to start rehearsing in October for one gig in December have invariably responded with rolling eyes, chuckles and one 'this guy must be a BAD motherfucker!' (chuckle chuckle).
I can tell that this exchange has struck a chord with you (a chord is three or more notes played together), testament to your insecurity. I was told that this would be your last gig, that you were giving it up. Probably for the better. Singer has GOT to be relieved that she doesn't have to listen to your crappy time and weak fills anymore. I am certainly glad that I don't have to drag the band through three hours of you bringing up the rear.
I'm sure --sax-- can find a bass player who has time to rehearse and fix your crappy charts. He is a fine player and knows plenty of cats who need the work. I have eight gigs this week and don't need the work (or the bullshit).
Best of luck to you,
master bassist
p.s. at least you know who John Pattitucci is....
It ain't braggin' if you can back it up
I was in Spokane, Washinton in the eighties and ran an ad for a lead player. A guy called and said he wanted the job but has one problem: no guitar and no amp. He told me that once I heard him I would buy him both. I laughed and said I had to go, and asked if he could come down that night to my gig. I said sure.....
That night I told the guys and we all had a great laugh. On the second set this guy walked up to the stage and said "I made it are you ready for me?"
I thought for laughs 'I'm gonna let him get up' and oh my god he blew the house down. Everyone in the bar came up to the stage to watch this guy. He could sound just like Elvis, play guitar like SRV, total I mean total pro. I just sat in the chair thinking 'how am I gonna get him a guitar and amp?' which I did the next day.
We had him in our band for 2 years and then he moved away. Talk about walk the walk, he gave new meaning to it.
Careful what you wish for
Well into the second set of the wedding reception and still no dancers! Our lead singer called the tunes and absolutely nothing could get some dancing going. Then, written requests from a large table started coming in for Motown, Stax, etc.
We played every one of their requests but no dancing. Finally our frustrated singer turned to the submitting table of guests and said, not that politely, "If you're gonna make all these requests, maybe you wanna hit the dance floor."
With the stage lights off as he spoke to the table, we could then clearly see their wheelchairs. Ouch!
Showing Off
Our band was playing a local hot spot bar. At that time few bars or night clubs in the area had actual live music so the place was always kinda crowded even if the band sucked. But we were one of the more popular rock bands in the county so we always packed it.
I played bass in the band and one night we are on stage and this really drunk chick is dancing around (by herself) right in front of the stage, and me in particular. I sang and since our two guitar players were left and right-handed I always stood center stage in the middle of our set-up.
So this girl's "dancing" was pretty much a perfect cross between a peg-legged whirling Dervish and Frankenstein if you can picture that (you really had to be there). And besides being wasted there was obviously something wrong with her but danced so funny it was hard not to laugh.
Anyway this was back in the early `90s when those "balloon pants" with the elastic waistband were in style and I liked them simply because they were very comfortable. As she is flailing around there, as all dancing drunks do she eventually fell down. But she didn't just fall on the floor, she fell backwards into the stage and as I mentioned she was in front of me already. Well, as people do when they fall she just grabbed out for anything that was there....guess what, she grabbed my loose-fitting pants and pulled them down to my ankles. But that's not even the funny part, in those days I never wore underwear so I'm standing there on a three-foot-high stage in front of about 100 or so people, some of them barely two feet way, with my junk hanging out in all it's glory. And I always wore my bass kinda high so it was of no use as a cover. Plus I am 6' 4" so it's not like the people in the back didn't notice. Thankfully, though the rest of the band was splitting their guts laughing as well, they didn't quit playing so that kinda helped to keep it from being a big commotion and actually caused it all to seem a bit surreal.
But after all it was a only barroom so what the hell. I just pulled my pants back up and laughed along with everyone, what else could I do? I'm just thankful it didn't happen at a wedding or a place with kids around. When the song ended someone yelled out "Does the strip show cost extra?" Of course that brought the house down again and actually saved me from having to come up with something witty.
But it didn't end there. The girl obviously was digging on me and waited around till we finished. So I talked to her and with-in a few seconds she tells me that "so yeah, I was just released from the mental institution this afternoon. And I'm not suppose to be drinking alcohol with my medication, but it's no big deal." I was like "uh, ok, uh I gotta take a piss." While I'm in the restroom I learned from an audience member that was in there and sorta knew her that she had been comitted for going psycho on her husband. He was like "dude, why are you talking to that weirdo skank?" and then he tells me about her. I was like YIKES GET ME OUTA HERE. But she wasn't going to give up. She was following me around like a puppy and hanging all over me. I was having visions of "Fatal Attraction". I wound up having to get my band mates to divert her attention so I could slip out to my car and leave. Thankfully I never saw her again.
But that night lived in infamy for some time after.
And I remember many years ago seeing a KISS interview and they were talking about funny or interesting stories from the road. Paul Stanley says, "well one time I had this girl backstage and said, so tell me a little about yourself". And she replied that she had just been released from the mental instution across the street. But I guess you don't have to be a hugh rock star to attract crazies. Rock & Roll
Dangerfield Bassist
I was the bassist for a few years in a classic rock cover band that had gotten really tight and built a good following. One Saturday night when the band was off, the guitarist (we'll call him "Jay") and I went to a bar to check out another band and hang out. While we were sitting at the bar some dude comes up, puts his arms around our shoulders and pops his head in between us. He turns to Jay and said "Dude, I saw your band last night at so and so. I had the best time. You guys were freakin' awesome."
Hearing this I was beaming with pride. He then turned to me and said "Have you seen his band?"
Bass players get no respect.
Fortunately he found a mechanic
We had just got done doing our thing and were loading up the truck with the PA system. I found all the doors looked and could hear giggling going on inside. I knocked on the door and heard our vocalist yell out "Can you come back in 15 minutes???"
15 minutes later, the rest of the band was standing outside. The door popped open and our vocalist came out with one of his groupies. His response? "I needed some service."
Can't you just add more quiet?
I worked with a band back in the 90's and they were playing a wedding. Throughout the course of the evening the bride's mother kept asking them to turn down. Finally the guitarist said "ma'am, we are playing as low as we can. What do you think the problem is?"
She said "the drums are too loud. Can you turn them down?"
"Well, the drums aren't even mic'ed," responded the guitarist.
So she asked "can you put mic's on them and turn them down?"
Rock out with André-Marie Ampère
In 1991 (or so), I was drumming for a band and we had a gig at an ever-popular club on Sunset. It was a Saturday night. We had brought a busload of fans from San Diego. Warner Brothers A&R folks were in house to see us. After soundcheck, the guitarist from one of the other bands playing that night was experiencing technical difficulties with his guitar head. Apparently a fuse had blown.
He asked our guitarist if he had a spare fuse. As we all know, fuses are rated for maximum current in a unit called Amperes, or, more commonly, Amps. Our guitarist asked the fuse-seeker, "What amp?" so he could see if he had the right value fuse.
The guy's reply? "Marshall."

Doris Lessing
Martin Cleaver/Associated Press
In her long and complex career, Doris Lessing, the winner of the 2007 Nobel Prize in literature, has traversed the savannas of Africa, the crooked streets of London and the chilly reaches of outer space. Irving Howe once described her as "the archaeologist of human relations," and she wrote persuasively about politics, feminism, Communism and black-white relations in Africa before moving on to explore the emotional crevices of the human psyche in her groundbreaking 1962 novel, "The Golden Notebook."
In announcing the award in Stockholm in October 2007, the Swedish Academy called her an "epicist of the female experience, who with skepticism, fire and visionary power has subjected a divided civilization to scrutiny." The award came with a 10 million Swedish crown honorarium, about $1.6 million.
Ms. Lessing, who was 88 when she won the award, is self-educated -- she ran away from home at age 15. Born to British parents in what is now Iran, she was raised in colonial Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, and lives in London.
The 11th female Nobel winner in literature, Ms. Lessing has written many works of fiction, as well as nonfiction, an autobiography and plays. She is still primarily known for "The Golden Notebook," an early inspiration to feminists. The Swedish Academy said of the book that the burgeoning feminist movement saw it as a pioneering work and it belongs to the handful of books that informed the 20th century view of the male-female relationship.
The novel told the story of Anna Wulf, a woman who wanted to live freely and was in some ways Ms. Lessing's alter-ego. Because Ms. Lessing frankly depicted female anger and aggression, she was attacked as unfeminine. In response, Ms. Lessing wrote: "Apparently what many women were thinking, feeling, experiencing came as a great surprise."
But Ms. Lessing also felt that focusing only on feminism obscured the other issues raised by the novel. So she always had harsh comments about the movement, many of whose members idolized her. Speaking in New York in 1970, she said, "I've got the feeling that the sex war is not the most important war going on, nor is it the most vital problem in our lives."
Fourteen years later, she rebuked another American audience, saying that the women's movement should have tried to work with men. "How can you expect things to change," she said, "if you're talking to yourself?" In 1994, in a very different world from 1962, she again criticized feminism, saying that "things have changed for white, middle-class women, but nothing has changed outside this group." Asked about her anti-feminist feelings when her work resounded with the issues that fueled the women's movement, she responded, "It wouldn't be enough to say I'm a woman, after all?"

I assume you have a router connected to your ethernet port: if you've got a usb modem you've got a problem. The router is making the connection to your ISP, so you only have to set up the connection to the router.
See if you have a menu option to configure a network; if you don't, open a terminal and type the command "neat". The ethernet port eth0 will be listed as a device. Click on it and then on Edit. In the General tab, tick "Activate when the computer starts" (if you want to), "All users", and "Automatically obtain DNS". In the Hardware tab, tick "Bind to MAC". If no MAC is given, click Probe. Then click OK and confirm that you want the alterations saved. That's it!
If you want to switch the service on and off (the only secure network is the disconnected one ...), use the network control option in the menu, or the commands "ifup eth0" and "ifdown eth0".

CANTON After serving six months as SUNY Cantons interim president, Carli S. Schiffner has decided to take another position in the state of Washington, where her parents reside.
Ms. Schiffner is resigning July 31, when she will leave the north country to take over as vice president of instruction at Wenatchee Valley College, Wenatchee, Wash., according to a Thursday announcement from SUNY Central, Albany.
She has served as interim SUNY Canton president since Sept. 1, after longtime President Joseph L. Kennedy stepped down.
SUNY Canton and the Canton community are like my adopted family, Ms. Schiffner said in a email. But my family and I are also extremely excited about living just a short car ride from our childrens grandparents, who live in Washington. This was a very difficult decision for me to make, however this is an opportunity that both personally and professionally I could not turn down.
The news comes just three months after neighboring SUNY Potsdam President John F. Schwaller announced he was stepping down, effective July 31.
SUNY Chancellor Nancy L. Zimpher plans to appoint an interim or acting president at SUNY Canton and at SUNY Potsdam by July 1, SUNY Central spokesman David Doyle said in an email.
SUNY Canton College Council President Ronald M. ONeill said he was contacted by SUNY officials who informed him the College Council likely will be allowed to begin the search for a permanent president this fall.
Its not cast in stone, but Im very optimistic we will be able to start our search by the fall, Mr. ONeill said.
After more than a year of uncertainty about whether SUNY Canton would be allowed to have its own president rather than share one with SUNY Potsdam, Mr. ONeill said hes confident that a sense of normalcy and stability will return to campus.
At the directive of Ms. Zimpher, SUNY Canton and SUNY Potsdam have been working to consolidate administrative duties in various areas so that more funding goes directly toward student education.
The ongoing process has required both colleges to realign some of their employees and identify places to increase efficiency. The two colleges now share a chief financial officer and a veterans affairs director.
Three more joint positions are being created, including a vice president for advancement and a chief information officer, which are supposed to be in place by the end of this semester. The selection process for a vice president for student affairs is scheduled to start this spring.
Ms. Schiffner served the college well during a difficult time, Mr. ONeill said.
I think Carli did an outstanding job, considering the position she was placed in. There was a certain amount of turmoil on campus. I know she did the best she could under the circumstances.
With the exception of the presidents job, Mr. ONeill said, the College Council has supported consolidation efforts with SUNY Potsdam.
We were never opposed to that. Our main mission was to ensure that we had our own president on campus, he said.
Canton Town Supervisor David T. Button said the turmoil on campus could have been prevented if SUNY Central officials had allowed the college to begin the presidential search last year after it was clear that Mr. Kennedy was leaving.
We did not have to go through that uncertainity, Mr. Button said. I think she has done a great job in adverse conditions.
He suggested that Mr. Kennedy would be an ideal candidate to serve as interim SUNY Canton president.
He certainly knows whats going on. I dont know if theres anyone who loves this college as much as him, Mr. Button said.
Ms. Schiffner, who also acts as the colleges vice president for academic affairs, came to SUNY Canton in 2003 as a history professor, later becoming Mr. Kennedys chief of staff. In 2007, she became dean of art and sciences at Yakima Valley Community College in Yakima, Wash., before returning to SUNY Canton.

NORFOLK State police are looking for a Norfolk woman in connection with a grand larceny case in which investigators said a priest and others were duped into raising more than $250,000 for a supposedly needy person.
Bobbie Jo Zeller, 36, is wanted on multiple counts of third-degree grand larceny, first-degree identity theft, fourth-degree grand larceny and second-degree criminal possession of a forged instrument.
Bureau of Criminal Investigation Senior Investigator Judith M. Trimboli, Massena, said the alleged scam collected at least $270,000.
She is being sought in connection with an ongoing course of conduct. Numerous subjects provided her with money under false pretenses, Ms. Trimboli said. I dont think we will ever reach every victim in this case. She said she needed money for certain reasons. Those reasons are not accurate.
Officials with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Ogdensburg said in February that Monsignor Robert L. Lawler, the former priest at St. Marys Catholic Church, Waddington, collected more than $100,000 from friends and parishioners for someone he falsely was led to believe was in dire financial straits.
Our understanding is Monsignor Lawler was the victim of a scam that went on for a period of time, the Rev. Kevin J. OBrien, moderator of the curia for the diocese, said in February. He thought he was assisting someone, but the reason for need appears to have been false.
Others were similarly misled and helped contribute money to Ms. Zeller during the past several months, Ms. Trimboli said.
Monsignor Lawler was not the only avenue she went through to obtain money under false pretenses, she said.
Troopers describe Ms. Zeller as a white female with brown hair and blue eyes. She is 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighs about 180 pounds. Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to call state police at 769-8406 or 379-0012.

Comments about Gibraltar 10 Lug Snare Side Hoop:
Been buying these hoops for several years and they've always been the best looking and excellent quality... until now (mid-2010). Gone the way of so many products. Maybe you get a good one and maybe not. It also looks like the front "lip" is shorter and not as attractive. Mine had 3-4 inches of grinder abrasions near the pass-through slot covered by chrome plating not thick enough to hide it. And on the side next to the fragile snare-side head. At least MusiciansFriend has a fair return policy. Even that doesn't help when you need to use the defective one while a replacement is coming which cannot be done under their policy. Not to mention UPS taking a holiday off tacked onto their usual non-shipping weekend. Still good hoops at a reaasonable price here when you get a good one. I'm so tired of this, I may just keep it and reinforce the poor quality so they'll keep it up...right?

CANTON - If Canton girls basketball coach Michael Meyers ever gets frustrated because his team cant understand instructions, he has at least one player on his team who can relate.
Senior point guard Emma Rexford is a coach herself, teaching kids how to figure skate in her free time.
I understand how frustrating it is when its hard for someone to grasp something, Rexford said. Ive been an actual coach just this year, but Ive volunteered since the eighth grade. I love little kids, and they are so cute and they look up to you, and it makes me feel good at the end of the day to know you are someones role model.
Just as the kids bring a smile to her face, Rexfords leadership and ability on a basketball court makes Meyers smile.
Shes helped lead the Golden Bears to a 13-1 record this season, including a 9-1 mark and a two-game lead in Northern Athletic Conference Central Division play.
Before scoring 21 points in a win over Tupper Lake on Monday, Rexford ranked fifth in Section 10 girls basketball in scoring at 17.7 points per game. She also averages 5.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.6 steals.
Shes such a hard worker, Meyers said. I think she leads through example. As much as she may not think it, or believe it, almost everyone here looks up to her. Its been a pleasure to have her on the team the last four years.
Rexford can disable opposing teams in many ways. Shes scored as many as 39 points in a game this year, but as few as eight. In both cases Canton won the game.
Shes our absolute leader, Meyers said. I told her the other night that just because she doesnt lead the team in scoring (in a game), doesnt mean shes not the best player on the floor. Everyones defense is going to be designed to stop Emma. She can play wherever. Shes had to guard people inside and done a nice job. She takes all the challenges and does her best.
Rexford set an early tone for what to expect when she scored 32 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in Cantons second game of the season. Shes gone over 30 three times this season but has noticed, especially the second time facing teams, that shes seeing more defensive attention.
(Opponents) have been doing box-and-ones on me, Rexford said. I try to bring the ball upcourt more. If I cant score, other people are scoring. Its a pretty even scoring team I think.
Many of the girls on Cantons basketball team have already played in the state playoffs in soccer and softball, which should aid the squad as the bigger basketball games approach.
Having that winning attitude is starting to trickle through to basketball, Meyers said. It helps if you know how to win ballgames and how to win tight games. It helps no matter what sport you are playing.
Said Rexford, We know how much pressure (state playoffs) are. Were used to it. Were not as pressured and more calm and collected.
Rexford also is not afraid of challenges. Last spring she replaced the best pitcher in Canton softball history, Kacie Wentworth, and never gave it much of a thought.
I dont like to compare myself to others, Rexford said. I didnt think people would compare me, because Kacie and I are completely different. I figured people would think, OK, shes pretty good. Kacie is obviously better, but shes OK.
Basketball season is already nearing its conclusion and then there will only be one more sport before Rexford moves on from Canton.
She said shes looking at Onondaga Community College, North Country Community College, St. Lawrence University and SUNY Canton.
I would like to go to a two-year (college) over a four-year, Rexford said. Im not positive what I want to do with my life. I dont want to spend so much money.
One thing Rexford is positive of is that she wants to continue coaching figure skaters while in college. Shes competed in the past in the event at the Winter Empire State Games.
Its really good pay, Rexford said. During college Id like to find a club I could coach at, instead of having to get a job on campus.
