I cannot believe it has been almost 30 years since I walked into Kelsey's public school in North Carolina. It was parents' day and we, the parents, were invited to see what our special needs child had accomplished.
I cannot believe it has been almost 30 years since I walked into Kelsey's public school in North Carolina. It was parents' day and we, the parents, were invited to see what our special needs child had accomplished.
This particular day was swim day.
Kelsey was almost 8 years old, at the time. When Kelsey's teacher reported that Kelsey had learned to swim, I laughed.
Kelsey has cerebral palsy. She could not walk and was afraid of the water. With all of her other medical conditions, it was impossible to even think that Kelsey could swim.
However, swim day arrived, and many anxious parents entered the school swim facility.
I looked for Kelsey when I arrived. There she was, sitting on a bleacher in her blue bathing suit, with her blonde hair in a pony tail and wearing her glasses. She was so excited to see me.
This is an added blessing to having a special needs child. Kelsey is, and was, always excited to see everyone, especially family.
Anyway, a teacher took the megaphone and welcomed the families. The teacher then announced the swimmers' names prior to each swimmer diving in the pool. Soon enough it was Kelsey's turn and I was a nervous wreck.
I watched two swim coaches, lift Kelsey and carefully walk her, holding both of her hands. They were about to help her into the deep end, when I thought, "Have they lost their minds? She won't be able to put her feet down. It's too deep."
Kelsey was smiling, ready to swim, and her feet were already in kicking motion.
And sure enough, Kelsey was dropped in the pool. I gasped.
After what seemed like a lifetime, Kelsey popped up from the deep water and started kicking and moving her body forward. She kept her face under the water, wiggling her body as fast as she could. Kelsey was going to swim the length of the pool.
I kept looking at Kelsey's instructor, who was screaming, "Go, Kelsey, go!"
And Kelsey kept going, swimming in a manner I had never seen before. Her head would pop out of the water, and she'd laugh, gulp water, and immerse her face again. She was focused on her other instructor at the opposite end of the pool.
I could not believe my very special needs daughter was going to swim, the entire length of the pool. It was unimaginable.
I ran to the shallow end and when Kelsey's face popped up, I grabbed her and hugged her, telling her how proud I was of her.
Kelsey knew how to swim.
Well, I had a repeat of my successful swimmer's history this past Friday. Our local YMCA has a class called "Challenger Swim Lessons."
Page 2 of 2 - Kelsey has been attending this class for six months and she loves it. She enjoys swimming. But the special attention of this class – and the great teachers – was just what she needed. The water is the best therapy, for her CP and orthopedic needs.
Normally, Kelsey attends the class with her staff. However, this past Friday was my turn.
And there Kelsey was, bobbing in the water and practicing her strokes with her swim instructor. Kelsey was excited to see me and show her skill.
She showed me that she could swim without her face in the water.
Kelsey is 30 years past North Carolina and her first swimming performance.
However, her smiley faced, happy, innocent, loving nature, has not changed. Kelsey's pride of accomplishment is expressed in the same manner, her sheer delight. Kelsey's willingness to do everything that is asked of her has not diminished.
She is determined. She is hopeful.
Kelsey is my teacher.

We could not do what we do without the help of our incredible volunteers! They give their time and energy so generously to Found Animals.

Reviewed by: Colleen from CA (moderator), review #1234
When: 2005
Tasty antipasti, good service, nice wine selection. Good prices.
Directions: Near La Botte restaurant
We stopped in this little wine bar on Sunday afternoon; it was one of the few places open at that odd "between meals" hour. Cozy but well laid out, with a tiny bar and a few small tables inside and a couple of tables outside.
There was a variety of cold antipasti on the menu. Other liquors besides wine were available for sale.
(Very clean bathroom!!)

NU Online Passport uses an authentication method that communicates securely with multiple Web applications.
Each time you begin a session on your computer, you will be automatically redirected to the Online Passport login page on your first attempt to access a Web Single Sign-On enabled service. When you log in, the application checks with the University's directory database to determine if you have a valid NU NetID and password.
The first time you log in during a work session, it will take a few moments for the system to verify your identity, after which you will be redirected to the site you originally wanted to visit. Subsequent attempts to visit Single Sign-On enabled sites during your session will be handled more quickly because you will be "known" to the system.
Once you are authenticated, you can access any Single Sign-On enabled University systems you are authorized to use, without being prompted to log in again (provided you do not exceed the time limits described below).
Time Limits for Login Sessions
For security purposes, NU Online Passport does not allow you to remain logged in indefinitely. There are two time limits for login sessions:
- Two-hour idle time limit
- 12-hour session limit
The two-hour limit helps prevent unauthorized access to your session. Once you "open the door" to the University network through NU Online Passport, both you and the network are vulnerable. If you are logged into a public computer and leave that computer unattended, it could be accessed by someone else who would then have virtually unlimited access to University systems through *your* NetID and password.
The 12-hour limit is provided as a convenience for users. By not allowing unlimited login sessions, the 12-hour limit also helps conserve University network resources.
Controlling Cookies in Your Browser
When you are authenticated by NU Online Passport, the system sets a cookie in your Web browser and caches the northwestern.edu domain in your computer. The cookie retains your information for the duration of your login session specifically so you can access other University authenticated Web sites without repeated logins.
When you exit your browser to end your session, the cookie is deleted. For this reason:
- You must keep your browser window open to stay logged in.
- You must set your browser to accept cookies.
If you try to log in and your browser is not set to accept cookies, the login screen will be displayed repeatedly until you change your browser settings.

Loui Eriksson says he's excited to be getting an opportunity to play with the Boston Bruins
Loui Eriksson talked to Boston media on a conference call today.
A few of the outtakes:
"I'm really looking forward to playing in Boston. It's a real good team and for the last couple years they've been one of the best teams in the league. So I'm real excited to go there and play. Everything happened real fast with the trade, but I'm real excited and I'm really looking forward to it. It will be awesome to come here and play. I'm going to try to give it my best and try to help them win the Cup."
"I've watched some games in the playoffs. Of course, I watched many games when they played because I know they're a good team. I know they play a tough kind of style, a good defensive kind of style so I think that will fit real well. I like to play that way. I'm just happy to be coming to a team like Boston."
"I know it's a really good team, they have really good players on that team and I'm really looking forward to coming here and to see them in the preseason and start to play in the season."
On the trade:
"Everything happened really fast there, actually. I talked to my family quick and it was kind of an easy decision for me to make that decision to go and play with Boston."
"I've had many good times in Dallas and I really liked it there too, but when I got the call it was Boston on the line, it was pretty persuasive for me to say yes to that because I know Boston is a good team and it's a different chapter to go there and try to win games and try to go far in the playoffs and win the whole Cup. I think the match to go and play for Boston is really good – it will be fun."

Quenneville: From Hawks fan to coach
It slipped out of Hawks coach Joel Quenneville's mouth so quickly that it almost went unnoticed during his news conference on Saturday afternoon at the UnitedCenter.
While talking about Hawks legends Stan Mikita, Tony Esposito and boyhood favorite Bobby Hull, Quenneville mentioned that he was a Blackhawks fan while growing up in Windsor, Ont. Windsor is located directly across the DetroitRiver from Detroit, where the Red Wings have made plenty of fans through the years across the AmbassadorBridge.
Not Quenneville, apparently.
"I was one of the oddballs in the city," he said. "Everybody was either a Canadiens fan or a Red Wings fan or (Maple) Leaf fan. I was probably the only Blackhawks fan. I guess I had to be representative of the street hockey. Chicago got some representation."
--Brian Hedger
Sharks hoping odd playoffs stay that way
In a lot of ways, the 2010 Stanley Cup Playoffs have been a little strange.
Road teams have a better overall record than home teams. Just the third team in NHL history battled back from a 3-0 deficit when Philadelphia shocked the Boston Bruins in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. In this series between the Hawks and Sharks, San Jose is outshooting Chicago 29-2 overall on the power play - with both of Chicago's shots on goal hitting the back of the net.
That's weird, right?
"I don't know all those stats like (reporters) know them," San Jose forward Ryan Clowe said. "I know the series is a lot tighter than 3-0. It easily could be us up a game or two, but I also know that's how the playoffs work sometimes."
Sharks defenseman Douglas Murray just hopes his team's luck begins to change with Game 4 and they continue adding to the unpredictable nature of this postseason.
"Let's keep it strange," he said. "We'll win in seven."
--Brian Hedger
Olympics helped Toews grow in captain role
He looks like a kid who should be sending out resumes into a bad job market after college, but at age 22, Hawks center Jonathan Toews is the captain of a team that's one win away from playing for the Stanley Cup.
Better yet, he plays for an Original Six team in a hockey-crazy town that hasn't had the Cup since 1961. Toews appears undaunted by the task, and said he learned a lot about leading a team just by watching some of his star teammates this past winter on Team Canada at the Olympics in Vancouver.
"It's never been something that I've directly spoken to anybody about," he said. "But I think you kind of get a sense, when you're on a team like Team Canada … I can't remember how many captains were in that room, but you definitely get a sense of what kind of leader a guy like Sidney (Crosby) is or Jarome Iginla. You don't really have to talk to them directly to find that out."
--Brian Hedger
Road game
Hawks forward Kris Versteeg was asked on Friday night whether the Hawks plan to stay in a hotel again before Sunday's Game 4 at the UnitedCenter -- like they did before winning Game 3 in overtime.
"I hope so," he said. "The Peninsula's got a pretty darn good bed. For 400 bucks a night, I would hope it does."
--Brian Hedger
Quenneville thought Hossa had it, too
Roughly 11 minutes into the second period Friday night, Marian Hossa had the slump-buster on this stick from inside the slot area. But, as has been the case with Hossa's puck luck in these playoffs, Sharks captain Rob Blake dove back into the net to cover up for the out-of-position Evgeni Nabokov and robbed Hossa of what looked like a sure goal.
Thanks to a 3-0 lead in the series, Hawks coach Joel Quenneville couldn't help but smile at Hossa's misfortune.
"Yeah, Blakey made a nice toe save on him, and he hit the post in the game prior to that," Quenneville said. "I think when you're that close, you're that close, eventually you're going to get one. Hopefully it's a breakout."
Hossa might have only two goals in the playoffs, but he was dynamite in Game 3 in every other area but the scoresheet. That's the way he has been in the playoffs, so Quenneville is not going to bicker about his lack of offense.
"Certainly, I think his overall game is solid as you could ever want in a forward, in a player," the coach said. "But, right now he's a little snakebitten around the net. I thought that (his chance in Game 3) was in, too (smiling)."
-- Dan Rosen
McLellan's lines surprise everyone
But it was a surprise, even for the players in the Sharks locker room.
"It kept our guys on their toes," McLellan said. "They had no idea who they were playing with before the game, right up to after the warmup. I went in and told them this is what was going to happen. I think that alerted them that this wasn't normal, this wasn't the same. Even throughout the periods or throughout the play in each of the periods, we juggled and alternated."
As much as McLellan shuffled the deck, it was still only Marleau that came up aces. He had two goals in Game 2 and two more goals in Game 3 despite playing with a slew of different players.
-- Dave Lozo
Burish and Sharp, Chicago's odd couple
You know the Chicago Blackhawks are loose when Adam Burish is telling the media that he'll be sure to have his hotel roommate, Patrick Sharp, make his lunch this afternoon and do anything else he tells him to do.
Since the Blackhawks are staying in a hotel to wind-down in the lead-up to Game 3 tonight, Burish has another chance to pull the strings on Sharp, the guy he calls "my little puppet."
"He does what I tell him to do," Burish joked. "We are going to the hotel this afternoon and usually he serves me my lunch. This is an important game tonight so I don't want him to get too tired, so I'll just have him make me a little salad with ranch dressing and a few cucumbers. It's what he does every trip we've been on so why change it up now."
On the flip side, Sharp said that during the Hawks recent road trip to Vancouver and San Jose, Burish was folding his laundry and putting it away neatly. Burish denies that ever took place.
"I don't touch a thing of his," Burish said. "He serves me room service when it comes. I run the remote control."
Sharp, sitting across the expansive Blackhawks' dressing room at United Center, said he didn't even know what to say about his roommate's demands for lunch. However, as long as Burish keeps talking, Sharp says he has a few tricks up his sleeve to get back at him.
"Now that he's running his mouth about that I have to find something to do," Sharp told NHL.com. "Every time he gets up to go to the bathroom or to the door, he always comes back and finds an empty water bottle or a telephone or a lamp stuck in his bed. Maybe I'll leave him a few more surprises today."
-- Dan Rosen
Hawks at home holing up in hotel
After going 3-3 in their first six home playoff games, the Blackhawks are shaking things up a little before Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals against San Jose at the United Center on Friday night.
After their morning skate, the Hawks will retreat to a hotel for the rest of the day to simulate the togetherness they credit for much of their road success. Veteran Hawks center John Madden likes the idea.
"I've done it my whole career," he said. "In New Jersey we'd actually spend the night before there and the whole next day. I think it's a good thing. The guys were up for it and we wanted it, so we're doing it tomorrow for the afternoon. It's more time spent together talking about the same goals."
Hawks captain Jonathan Toews agreed.
"We just think it's a good thing as a team," he said. "We're going to do little things like that just to make sure we're keeping our focus and focusing our energy where it needs to be, and that's on ourselves and the task at hand. That way other things can't come into play."
--Brian Hedger
Sopel still absorbing pain, just not as much
The cut on Brent Sopel's cheek is healing, with the remnants of the scar still there as a constant reminder of the brutality he's faced in the Hawks 14 postseason games thus far.
Against Nashville in the Western Conference quarterfinals, Sopel took a number of slap shots to the mid-section and legs -- including some fired by defenseman Shea Weber, who has one of the hardest shots in the League. Against Vancouver and San Jose in the next two rounds, he hasn't taken quite as much abuse from the puck, but is still walking around with wounds that won't fully heal until the off-season.
"I'm still taking shots and doing whatever I can," Sopel said. "At this point in time, it's a battle. It's a war out there. Nobody's going to heal now. It's all about doing whatever it takes to win. You just want to win your final game."
Sopel especially dreams of hoisting the Stanley Cup after a 13-year playing career that has taken a toll on his battered body.
"I've been around for a long time and played a lot of games in my day and never had that chance to win it," Sopel said. "There's no question I'm motivated to get it done."
--Brian Hedger
Sharp attacks Hawks hype carefully
While some of his teammates talked about turning off their cell phones, TVs and radios to avoid the buzz in Chicago about a possible Stanley Cup run, Hawks forward Patrick Sharp said he's still tuning in for a few tidbits here and there.
Sharp even has his own weekly radio segment called "Sharp Attack" on WTMX-FM (101.9)'s "Eric & Kathy Show" weekday mornings.
"I'm in between," Sharp said, when told of his teammates not paying attention to any TV or radio shows. "I listen to a little bit of it, but I take it for what it's worth. I know that just because someone in the media picks us to win or tells us how good we're playing, it doesn't affect how we are playing."
Still, even he sees a fine line to walk.
"It's up to us to do the job," Sharp said. "You start reading your press clippings and thinking that you're better than you are, that's when you run into trouble."
--Brian Hedger
Sharks poised to turn the other fin
The level of dislike between the Sharks and Hawks seemed to rise noticeably in Game 2, especially toward the end of the game - culminating with a scrum of players taking whacks at each other and tussling before officials broke it up.
The Hawks have become known for their ability to needle opponents with verbal jabs and hard hits, especially the fourth line of Adam Burish, John Madden and Ben Eager. Still, the Sharks don't plan on necessarily giving it right back.
"We don't mind giving a little tongue-lashing either, but most of the time you try to shy away from that," Sharks forward Ryan Clowe said. "Sometimes you can get thrown off your game. They've got some guys who really like to do that. That's a strength of theirs, and we've really got to watch it."
Clowe said sometimes it's better to fight back by not speaking and just skating away.
"Sometimes the worst thing you can do is turn away when they're talking to you," Clowe said. "You spend all that energy talking, and the guy just turns his shoulder - so, we try to do that. If you score a goal or finish a hit, then you can start talking."
--Brian Hedger
San Jose doesn't want to change a thing, except for results
Despite dropping the first two games at home, the Sharks are still confident in their overall strategy against the Hawks -- who've now won five times in six games against San Jose, including all four meetings in San Jose.
They still aim to play an offensive style, control the puck and put intense pressure on Chicago goalie Antti Niemi to keep coming up with big saves.
"I don't think we've played upward of the caliber that we had in the first two rounds," veteran Sharks defenseman Rob Blake said after Thursday's practice at the United Center. "As far as changing anything, I don't think we need to do too much there. The game plan has been in place all season. Our execution needs to be much better."
--Brian Hedger
Sharks find no comfort in Hawks home struggles
Much of the focus on the Blackhawks has been about their mediocre 3-3 home record in the playoffs as opposed to their sterling 7-1 mark on the road -- including wins in the first two games of this series in San Jose.
The Sharks weren't biting, though, when asked whether Chicago's home struggles are a boost to San Jose's confidence before Game 3.
"It means absolutely nothing, to be honest with you," defenseman Dan Boyle said. "It's another round, another series. It really doesn't matter what their home record is. We're aware of it. It really doesn't matter."
--Brian Hedger
San Jose looking to work smarter
Sharks defenseman Dan Boyle said his comments after the Game 2 loss about needing to work harder weren't exactly what he meant to convey.
After Thursday's practice, Boyle said the effort was fine in the first two games except for one thing that needs to change in Game 3.
"There's a difference between working hard and working smart," Boyle said. "I think that's the difference in the first two games. We're working hard. Definitely I don't think that's the problem. But working smart is a different thing. It's one thing to work, but if you're not getting it accomplished, you're just wasting time."
--Brian Hedger
Hawks a big draw among Chicago sports fans
Patrick Kane was asked about the Hawks drawing better TV ratings than the Cubs, White Sox and the NBA Playoffs combined among Chicago viewers for Game 1 against the Sharks. The young star seemed impressed but not all that surprised.
"As far as in Chicago?" he said. "Yeah, I mean, it's exciting. I think the town is really behind our team. You could see that over the last couple years as far as how many sellouts we've had, the support you get around town, how even recognizable you are around town here. I guess that's always a pretty cool stat. You like hearing those stats."
Not just for selfish reasons, either. Kane hopes to be part of a wave of young stars who help raise hockey's place among the sports culture in the United States. He said it was a similar feeling playing for Team USA in the Winter Olympics in Vancouver.
"It was fun to see when I was playing in the Olympics, U.S. versus Canada (for the gold medal), there was a big (ratings) number," Kane said. "You hear those different things and it makes it exciting for you, knowing you're trying to help grow the game. This helps a lot."
--Brian Hedger
Call him "The Statue"
Dustin Byfuglien is cementing his reputation as a postseason pest and virtually unmovable force in front of opposing goalies ever since he was shifted from the blue line to the front line against Vancouver in the Western Conference Semifinals.
When Byfuglien parks his massive 6-foot-4, 257-pound frame in front of the net, there's very little opposing defenders can do but try to lift his stick. Hawks center Dave Bolland seems to get a kick out of watching the net battles with Byfuglien.
Once the big guy gets set, defenders would probably have an easier time moving the Michael Jordan statue outside the main entrance to the UnitedCenter.
"When he's in front of that net, I don't think anybody can move that guy," Bolland said Wednesday at an airport news conference in Chicago. "You see some guys on the Sharks were trying to get in there, and Buff just stood his ground, just placed his feet there."
--Brian Hedger
Sharks looking forward to road
After two tough losses at HP Pavilion, the Sharks don't mind a trip to the Midwest.
"I think it's good for everyone to get together, we all go to dinners together, really focus and dig our heels in," said Scott Nichol. "We know what we have to do. We'll be OK."
Something else the Sharks don't mind -- a little adversity. They were down 2-1 in their first-round series against the Avs before finding their game and storming back to win the series.
"I think we're better that way," Nichol said. "Coming into the playoffs and Colorado beat us, everyone -- the media and stuff -- was thinking, 'Oh boy, here we go again.' And we proved them wrong. Nobody has confidence in us other than the guys in our room, we know we can get it done. And that's a good thing, we're a pretty dangerous animal when we got our backs against the wall and that's the way we're approaching it."
-- Dave Lozo
Blackhawks' net presence
It's getting to be the same old story when it comes to how the Blackhawks get their goals. Someone goes to the net, they can't be moved, and somehow the puck finds its way past the goaltender.
In Game 3, it wasn't just Dustin Byfuglien getting the job done with a deflection goal. Jonathan Toews and Troy Brouwer also tipped shots from in tight, leaving Sharks coach Todd McLellan to explain what his team needs to do differently against Byfuglien with Game 3 on Friday.
"He was a factor in his goal, certainly," McLellan said. "The Toews goal on the power play, he wasn't as big a factor as Toews getting a stick on the puck off the side. There's no doubt that he's big and strong there. We have a plan, we didn't execute the plan. So we'll continue with that and maybe try to enhance it somehow."
-- Dave Lozo
Toews, Kane, Byfuglien can't be stopped
Since Dustin Byfuglien moved up to the top line with Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane for Game 2 of the Blackhawks' second-round series against the Canucks, the unit has had amazing chemistry that's resulted in tons of offensive production.
Byfuglien played Game 1 of that series on defense, but Joel Quenneville decided to use him as a net presence and it's been paying off since. In seven games, Byfuglien has 6 goals and 2 assists. Kane has 2 goals and 8 assists and Toews has 5 goals and 9 assists.
"Buff seems to be a playoff performer," said Kane. "It's exciting for us to play with him when he's getting a lot of pucks back. Usually with myself and Toews, played with each other for a while, so we have some chemistry."
Toews now leads the League with 23 points after his goal and assist in Game 2 against the Sharks. Is this the best Toews has ever played in his career?
"I don't think I've ever seen him this good. Even in practice," Kane said with a laugh. "No, but sometimes as an offensive player, you're just feeling it. I think this is the biggest time of year. I think you sw in the Olympics how well he played. Seems like the guy is a big-time player. He's fun to play with. Things are clicking for him, for our line, pretty much our whole team. "
-- Dave Lozo
Hawks ready to go home
They've been on the road since May 10 when they flew out to Vancouver, so, yeah, the Blackhawks think it's about time that they get to sleep in their own beds and eat something other than hotel food.
"Actually, we talked about it today and we think we've been home for a day and a half in the last 15 days," Hawks winger Troy Brouwer told NHL.com, "so we're ready to get back."
Since leaving for Vancouver on May 4 for Game 3 of that series, the Blackhawks have spent exactly two nights at home (May 8-9). They've been in San Jose ever since May 12, when they flew here the morning after they knocked out the Canucks in Vancouver.
Now, of course, they have had success on these trips. They've won six straight road games dating back to April 22 at Nashville, but still, they can't wait to board that flight bound for Chicago tomorrow morning.
"It's been a long time on the road and it'll be nice to get into Chicago," Duncan Keith said, "but hopefully after a win."
-- Dan Rosen
Niemi chirps Kane
The usually quiet Antti Niemi was apparently in a jovial mood Monday because with some prodding from Kris Versteeg the Blackhawks goalie tried to get a few licks on Patrick Kane.
It all goes back to Washington center Nicklas Backstrom, the fourth overall pick in the 2006 Entry Draft, signing a 10-year, $67 million contract extension on Monday.
Kane, the first overall pick in the 2007 Entry Draft, signed a five-year, $31.5 million contract extension in December that kicks in starting next season. That means Backstrom, at an annual salary of $6.7 million, makes more than Kane's annual salary of $6.3 million.
Niemi, with the help of Versteeg, took notice.
"Because Backstrom just signed that big 10-year deal, I think it was Versteeg that told him to say something to me," Kane said of Niemi. "He goes, 'Hey Kaner,' and everyone looks at him like, 'What's he going to say.' He says, 'How do you feel about Backstrom making more than you?' It was really funny."
You have to think there's more to the story that Kane isn't telling, but then again, knowing Niemi and the way he talks, his rip probably ended right there. Niemi is not long on words, at least in English, but he doesn't have to be as long as he stops the puck like he did on Sunday.
The Sharks today talked about trying to beat him high in Game 2, but Kane says good luck on that.
"To be honest with you, he's one of the hardest goaltenders to score on in practice as far as shooting high," Kane said. "Sometimes I can't even figure him out in practice."
-- Dan Rosen
The Hawks have a lead, now what?
Every team wants to take a 1-0 lead in a series, but Chicago has become quite good coming from behind. Until Sunday's 2-1 win, they had to do it in four straight series' dating back to the second round last season against Vancouver.
So, one question heading into Tuesday's Game 2 is how they handle playing with the lead?
"We always seem to feel comfortable coming from behind and being down in a series, especially early," captain Jonathan Toews said. "We'll learn how to handle this lead and find ways to motivate ourselves to keep finding that next level."
Joel Quenneville said the Hawks best way to handle the lead is to make sure they have a really good start in Game 2.
"We feel they start better than anybody, so let's make sure the first handful of shifts each that there's a purpose behind them, there's intelligence and there's some pace," Quenneville said. "We've got to react like we shouldn't be satisfied, we haven't accomplished anything, and feel like we have to win."
The prospect of going up 2-0 before the series shifts to United Center is definitely intriguing to these Hawks, who don't know what a 2-0 lead in a series feels like.
"It'd be good and fun," Dustin Byfuglien said.
Hey, can't argue with the big guy there.
-- Dan Rosen
Sharks talk beating Niemi
One day after his performance in Game 1 against the Sharks, Blackhawks goaltender Antti Niemi remained a hot topic among both teams Monday. A game-changing 44 saves tends to do that.
For the Sharks, it was all about solving him with Game 2 set for Tuesday. It wasn't as if their 45 shots in Game 1 were all from the outside. Many of them were quality chances, so what needs to change in the next meeting?
"We just need to, with second chances, get them upstairs," said Joe Thornton. "He takes away the bottom of the net pretty good. I think when we do get second chances, throw them upstairs on him."
Niemi is well-known for his strong play along the ice. The 6-foot-2 has long, quick legs that take away almost everything low. But Dany Heatley wasn't ready to give Niemi the same kind of praise he's been getting from everyone else.
"Yeah, I had some pretty good chances," Heatley said. "I would have liked to put them in different spots, but he made some saves. I thought at times we made him look pretty good. We just have to make better shots when we get those chances."
-- Dave Lozo
Hawks go power-less, but it doesn't matter
It's pretty rare when a team goes without a single power-play chance and still wins the game. The Blackhawks proved it can be done this afternoon in Game 1, and they did it despite a 5-0 disparity in penalties.
"You're always going to feel that you could have had a few calls go your way, but it wasn't the case," Hawks captain Jonathan Toews said. "It is what it is. We get a little ticked off on the bench. It's natural to react that way when you think you could have drawn a penalty but you didn't get the call. That's the way it is and we still found a way to win the game. We didn't make excuses about something like that."
It's obvious the Hawks believed they could have had one or two power play chances, but they were not complaining about the disparity. The Sharks simply felt they played a well-disciplined game, and they did.
Perhaps, though, Chicago caught its break in the final minute when it was Kris Versteeg that was sent off for tripping Devin Setoguchi. Several in the media felt it should have been Dave Bolland, one of the Hawks' top penalty killers, who got sent to the box.
Bolland instead was left out to kill most of the 6-on-4 with John Madden, Brent Sopel and Niklas Hjalmarsson.
"It's one of those situations where it was a couple, three guys' sticks in the same play," Hawks coach Joel Quenneville said about why it was Versteeg and not Bolland. "I don't know at the end of the day. We still have Toews and Hossa, pretty good penalty killers right there. I'm not complaining."
Sharks coach Todd McLellan said he didn't have time to complain to the refs that they might have caught the wrong guy on the trip.
"What we couldn't do was lose our marbles on the bench and start yelling and screaming at the referee. We had to have some poise and set up a 6‑4 situation," McLellan said. "Irregardless of who was out there … we had to beat a good team. We weren't going to stand up and yell and scream. We were going to get our group organized. If they erred, they erred. We have to move on. Can't do anything about it."
The Hawks had the same feeling about not getting a power play for the whole game.
So be it.

Sharks, Blackhawks lineup for Game 1
Not a lot has changed for the Sharks and Blackhawks as they get the Western Conference Finals under way.
The Blackhawks will be using the same lineup they used to eliminated the Vancouver Canucks in Game 6 of the second round. The Sharks, who used seven defensemen in the deciding Game 5 against the Red Wings last round, will employ the same strategy Sunday afternoon.
The Blackhawks lines and pairings:
The Sharks lines and pairings are:

Thornton on Bruins' collapse
You can't really blame Sharks center Joe Thornton if he doesn't exactly empathize with the city of Boston after it suffered through watching the Bruins blow a 3-0 series lead and a 3-0 lead in Game 7 against the Flyers. After all, when fans wanted a scapegoat for the Bruins' failures before the lockout, when Thornton wore the gold and black, it was usually going to be Jumbo Joe.
So you couldn't help but laugh -- if you're not from Boston -- when he was asked what he thought about the Bruins' historic collapse.
"Well, I turned it on about halfway in the first. It was 3-0," Thornton said. "Halfway in the second, I turned it back on, 3-3. I was like, 'Wow, poor guys.'
"But who cares," he said with a smile. "Right? Who cares?"
-- Dave Lozo
Thornton: 'Cup or bust'
The expectations haven't changed for the Sharks in recent years. But what has changed is the results.
After six years of failing to reach the Western Conference Finals, the Sharks are back. They're the No. 1 seed, and Thornton wasn't shy about what he expects from his team.
"Well, ever since I've been here, it's Cup or bust," Thornton said. "We realize the expectations out here are probably higher than any city in the Western Conference. We set our sights high in the preseason to get in the playoffs and then do some damage.
"I think we're finally at that point where we're feeling good. We're feeling comfortable with our team, how we play. But you got to win the Cup or you bust.
-- Dave Lozo
Blackhawks have experience
When the Blackhawks reached the Western Conference Finals last season, they exceeded a lot people's expecatations. They ran into Detroit Red Wings, though, and were ousted in five games.
One year later, they still have less overall experience than they're opponents, but they have more players who have taken part in a conference final.
According to Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews, the team can't afford to be as sloppy as it was last year and expect to reach the Stanley Cup Final.
"The number one thing is you look at the way we played, won those games, won those first two series in the playoffs against Calgary and then Vancouver," Toews said of 2009. "It just seemed like no matter how many mistakes we made, we still found ways to win games. Especially against Vancouver, we gave up a lot of leads. I think we were down, if I can remember correctly, 2-1 in that series. We somehow just kept coming back.
"Against a team like Detroit or San Jose, that's not going to fly. You got to correct a lot of those little things."
Toews thinks that's all different this time around.
"But I think this year we're much more mature, much more solid as far as the way we play and win games," he said. "We understand what it's going to take to win this time of year. I think we got that extra push I think that it's going to take to get through this series this year."
-- Dave Lozo
The Buff factor
One player doesn't win a series by himself, but the contributions from Blackhawks forward Dustin Byfuglien was a factor almost as huge as the man himself in beating the Canucks.
The 6-foot-4, 257-pound forward will find the going a little tougher against the Sharks, who have much more physical defenseman in Rob Blake and Kent Huskins. But that doesn't mean he won't be a factor in this series.
"We'll see how it all plays out," said Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville. "It's tough to forecast how the position is going to work itself handout."
Sharks coach Todd McLellan feels his team is better equipped to handle Byfuglien than the Canucks were, and a lot of the credit goes to the Detroit Red Wings.
"I believe we can find a way to handle it," McLellan said. "We're not going to eliminate it. He's a very big man, he's a very good player. You have to give him that.
"Part of it is your goaltender putting up with it and looking through it. In my opinion, I don't think there's anybody better in the league than (Tomas) Holmstrom is in Detroit. (Johan) Franzen and (Dan) Cleary, (Todd) Bertuzzi, we just faced a team full of players that were happy to go and stand in the blue paint, drive the goalie bananas. We found a way to fight through it."

Brian Hobaugh learned to love cars by going autocrossing with his dad in his mom's Camaro. Of course, dad wasn't satisfied with the Camaro's performance and wound up with a widebody 1965 Chevrolet Corvette. He's still got it, more than 30 years later.
On this week's /BIG MUSCLE, Mike Musto visits Hobaugh's shop and drives the built-for-handling Sting Ray that's been in Hobaugh's family for three decades. The engine is a 364 ci small-block stroker producing 500 hp and 500 lb-ft. The tires? 315/30-18s all around. That's a lot of rubber. The fender flares were done back in the '60s, though widened more recently to accommodate modern, ultra-fat tires.
Naturally, the suspension's been tuned with autocross handling in mind, which makes for a car with so much street grip, a five-point harness is pretty much mandatory. Also, and thankfully, it has the original Sting Ray interior (outside of the steering wheel, I think), which looks period-amazing alongside the original Shinoda curves.
It's certainly taught me to love mid-century Corvettes a bit more than I loved them already. Look for it competing at the Optima Ultimate Streetcar Invitational 2013, this November.

Kimberley Walsh has revealed that she is High Flying Birds singer Noel Gallagher's favourite Girls Aloud Member.
Former Oasis star Gallagher recently tried to get Walsh to play at his Teenage Cancer Trust show, but plans didn't work out due to scheduling conflicts.
Girls Aloud at Captial FM Jingle Bell Ball, 2012 (WENN.com)
Speaking to The Sun, Walsh said: "The Girls Aloud tour is around the same time so we couldn't make it work. I'm gutted that we can't do it."
"He called me up out of the blue. It's great that he's involved and is arranging it. It was exciting to speak to him."
"I was like, 'Really?' He said I was his favourite Girls Aloud member and Sarah wasn't very happy about that."
The star also said that her and her Girls Aloud bandmates – Nadine Coyle, Sarah Harding, Cheryl Cole, Nicola Roberts - were excited for their reunion tour and rehearsals.
"We have a choreographer and creative director who have sorted the stage set and visuals. We're happy with that."
"Then we get into outfits and dance moves. And we have to try to remember all the words to the songs."
"It's always fun with the girls. It's not as intense as Strictly or Shrek because we all know our stuff, we are just perfecting it, getting it to the best level. There is a lot of banter."
The singer made it to the finals of Strictly Come Dancing, although there isn't much chance of seeing her perform a routine from the show on the up coming tour.
She said: "I'm not too sure the cha cha cha will work with anything we do with Girls Aloud. Maybe I'll save that for my tour."
Kimberley's solo album Centre Stage reached number 18 on the UK Charts.

Hi, I just wanted to say that you were the best villain in Kis Desh and I absolutely loved ur acting. You were superb.
Though, I want to confess that almost all of us had cursed Daljeet for trying to separate Premeer but we all also accepted that you are really an amazing actress.
I also love the bond b/w you and Additi di. Love it. I really loved it when she told SBS that off-screen you are like a mother to her.
Love you Tasneemji.

Aline Weber by Eduardo Rezende for Elle Brazil. Love the location in the Atacama desert, love the swimsuit, but not a fan of the hair or the retouching (it looks like someone did something wrong to her body, especially around the skirt part of suit).
Alessandra Ambrósio by Robert Astley Sparke for Glamour Brazil, wearing the exact same swimsuit by Lenny Niemeyer which is featured on the cover of Elle (Alessandra wore it much better in my opinion). I am going to forgive the Brazilian flag cliché because it is Independence month.
Ben Harper and Isabelli Fontana by Jacques Dequeker for Vogue Brazil. Fashion Rocks? What year is this? One of my least favorite issues of Vogue Brazil this year. Fyi, Isabelli added a second "L" to her name.
Dakota Fanning by Karl Lagerfeld for Harper's Bazaar Brazil. Another one of Carine Roitfeld's global cover stories, but probably the last picture of the entire editorial I would have handpicked for a Brazilian cover.
Amra Cerkezovic by Fe Pinheiro for L'Officiel Brazil. With so many good images in the editorial, I have no clue why that was chosen for a cover. It is neither cool nor edgy if that is what the magazine was trying to achieve here.

In the short time Carolina Thaler was in Brazil last month she managed to shoot three editorials for this month's fashion magazines. She appears in two stories in Harper's Bazaar Brazil, both styled by Flavia Lafer and shot by Bob Wolfenson, and in a single girl story in Elle Brazil styled by Rita Lazzarotti and photographed by Eduardo Rezende. As much as I adore her, I do think Bazaar Brazil could have made an effort to shoot at least one different girl per story in the issue to add a little diversity, but that is what happens when there is no casting director involved. View more images from the three editorials after the break.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley by Henrique Gendre and Aline Weber by Jacques Dequeker for Vogue Brazil. Although I do not see the need for two completely unrelated covers, they are some of my favorite covers from the publication produced by Brazilian photographers recently.
Lily Aldridge by Eduardo Rezende for Elle Brazil. It is the first cover under new editor-in-chief Susana Barbosa and I like the direction. It is about time Brazilian fashion magazines start shooting girls other than Isabeli Fontana and Aline Weber for their covers, and start producing more of their content overseas.
Ali Michael by Yossi Michaeli for L'Officiel Brazil. Sorry, but it has been a year since L'Officiel Brazil relaunched under a new editorial team and I still do not get the direction of the magazine (or the relevance of this cover).
Daniela Braga by Gui Paganini for Harper's Bazaar Brazil. It was about time a national magazine gave Daniela Braga a much deserved cover, but I just wish Bazaar had used any other image from her editorial instead of the picture above. Not only does her head look like it is floating, but also her amazing skin complexion has been over retouched. Best choice of model this month, but bad choice of image and retouching.

Afriforum targets 'bomber' doctorsComment on this story
Johannesburg - A complaint has been laid with the Health Professions Council of SA (HPCSA) against former Surgeon General Vejaynand Ramlakan and KwaZulu-Natal health MEC Sibongiseni Dhlomo.
Civil rights group AfriForum, which laid the complaint, said on Friday the two men - who are both registered medical doctors - were involved in bomb attacks in 1985.
The attacks took place at supermarkets and shopping centres in the Durban area, CEO Kallie Kriel said in a statement.
"Ramlakan and Dhlomo both admitted before the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) they had supplied explosive devices during the ANC's 'Operation Butterfly' for a series of attacks on, inter alia, civilian targets."
AfriForum brought the complaints after apartheid-era chemical warfare expert Dr Wouter Basson was found guilty of unprofessional conduct by the HPCSA on December 18.
The six-year-long inquiry related to Basson's involvement in Project Coast, a secret biological and chemical warfare research project which violated international protocols and conventions between the 1980s and early 1990s.
Basson, a cardiologist, was the project officer of Project Coast.
Kriel said if the HPCSA had acted on ethical grounds against Basson, it was only fair to expect it to act against other medical practitioners who were involved in bombings where people were hurt or killed during the same period.
Six other medical practitioners have also submitted independent complaints to the council, he said.
"Ramlakan and Dhlomo were practising as doctors during the attacks and are still registered as medical practitioners."
The council and the KwaZulu-Natal health department were not immediately available for comment.
Kriel said Ramlakan told the TRC of his involvement in the 1985 bombing of politician Amichand Rajbansi's home and the Chatsworth Magistrate's Court.
"He also admitted before the TRC that people were injured in some of the other attacks executed by people under his command," said Kriel.
"Dhlomo also admitted before the TRC that he had supplied explosive devices for various explosions in Durban on September 27, 1985, at the OK Bazaars, Game, Spar and Checkers."
Dhlomo was also involved in explosions in the same year at Grosvenor Girls' High School in Durban and the Executive Hotel in Umlazi.

The Ricochet and the Pros
To show the long, stable spinning of the Ricochet we gathered some of the best in the world to test how long they could make a trick on the Ricochet. In the next few days we'll be releasing single trick videos from Harold, Paul, Clint and Vashek to show you the Ricochet going through some serious testing. Who will have the longest trick? Moreover, how long can YOU throw for?
Paul Han rips through his long trick with the Ricochet! He's not one to waste time or speed in a freestyle. Clocking in at 30.7 seconds, it's clear he could have hit a longer trick. Just watch how much spin is left when it returns to the hand. That's the power of Titanium! Think you can beat him? March 17th the Ricochet releases and you'll have a chance to shine, or spark!
Next, we have Harold Owens III throwing down his long Ricochet trick. Clocking in at a strong 48 seconds, that's almost 1 throw for a qualifying round! When every second of a prelim counts, don't you want to maximize your time by not having to return and throw your yo-yo more then you need to? On March 17th you can!
Coming in at 55.5 seconds on the Ricochet… multi-time Czech National Champion, and European Champion, Vashek! That's pretty close to a 1 minute freestyle, in 1 throw. And with the tricks he's doing, he would be one of the top qualifiers.
Clint Armstrong, as his last name would suggest, hit it with a huge 1:18.3 second on the Ricochet!
Now, it's your turn! Ricochet hits stores this weekend, March 17th. For those lucky enough to score one, we want to see how long you can go with 1 throw! Who's in?
08 Mar 2013
When we set out to design the Ricochet we wanted to make a classic. The material is Titanium. Known for it's amazing strength and luster. The performance is in the play, not in a complicated shape. A modern classic, for the players of today and the future.
Not only does Titanium have a low density, it's very strong. It's naturally lustrous and is recognized for its high strength-to-weight ratio which gives us the ability to have less weight in the wall, and more where it counts, on the rim. Traditionally it is used in aerospace products such as airplane wing supports and jet engines, as well as in armor plating. It also has a 'feel' unlike anything else you can make a yoyo from. It feels special because it is special. So special in fact, we numbered every yo-yo. 1 of 500.
March 17th 2013 Worldwide Release Date. Approx $199 USD.
Only one question remains…. Would you take advantage of the ability to throw sparks when you Walk the Dog or covet it, in its' display case?

Detroit boy hit by shrapnel when bullet explodes on stove
9-year-old boy hit by bullet shrapnel at home on Rochelle Avenue near Hayes Street on city's east side
Published On: Jul 05 2013 04:19:17 PM EDT Updated On: Jul 05 2013 05:49:21 PM EDT
Detroit police say a 9-year-old boy was accidentally struck by a bullet casing Friday at a home on Rochelle Avenue near Hayes Street.
Police tell Local 4 that there was an old bullet placed on a stove inside the home. The bullet was heated and the child was struck when it exploded.
The boy was home with his 14-year-old sister when he found the bullet under a couch and put it on the hot stove. Since the bullet was old, it exploded.
