I'm a musician and composer. I began watching anime (mainly Slice-of-Life genres at first) to improve my Japanese language listening skills.
I'm not as much into manga, admittedly. But every now and then I'll read one, especially if it has a unique storyline.
Been learning Japanese for several years now. I'm not fluent, and I understand more than I can speak/write. But I still aim to improve.
6,886 total episodes
That sounds like a lot of fun! It is interesting to watch some of the older anime series.
I've mostly been watching Hikaru no Go recently, it is a long anime series (75 episodes) but it is easy to get into and has allowed me to learn about the board game Go from it. It seems like a "Simple but Complex" type of game similar to Chess yet somehow seems a little more complex compared to chess. Speaking of updating the "watching list" I should probably do the same, it is easy to allow dozens of anime to be listed as watching with my jumping habits.
There's also Arpeggio of Blue Steel which I finished recently. I thought it was a fun watch and made Naval battles look exciting. The manga for this series was also at my local bookstore so I bought up all the volumes they had to get the source material!
Other than watching anime, I've been doing college for the most part. Even though its not part of a requirement for my degree I'm going to take a Japanese language class later this year to try and understand the language better. Since you're studying Japanese are Kanji used with Katakana/ Hiragana in the same sentences, or are the 3 systems used independently of each other?
Hello Aurura,
It's been awhile since we've last talked. How have you been?
What's your favorite anime that you've seen recently?
hey long time no talk!!!! its been forever since i was on here woahhh. i hope youve been good.

Hi! Well to start off, I hope I'm a cheery person. I try to be.
Anyway, yes tsuyokiss cool sweet looks very intresting. I want to try it. But would you mind telling me a little about it. I can't find a summary...
And no, I haven't seen Noragami, but it is on my 'Want to watch' list. I'll try it soon.
Talk later!
Hi! Thank you for talking to me, and getting to know me. I do love Fruits Basket and Momiji is my favorite character (pluse I have a crush on him)! So of corse I had to put the song in there.

So tell me a little more about your self! Lets be friends!
Talk soon! :D
P.S- Sorry for the late reply, haven't been on recently.

The link above goes to Bungie's character development video from the Game Developers Conference. Pause the video around the 24 second mark and you'll see what I'm talking about. This enemy doesn't resemble any enemy I've seen. I think it's either the "Glimmer" or a different class of the Hive.

P R LOCO15/29/2013 4:53:07 PM PermalinkI think its the glimmer aswell but if it isn't a guardian then they're all my enemies!
Dick VanDick9/4/2013 1:40:14 AM PermalinkI think for the moment there are only going to be 4 types so most likelt to me it a type of Hive basterd.
DiPolarPilot9/3/2013 1:22:37 PM PermalinkSaw what I think you're referring to, the large beast that did the ground pound, in the recent Vidoc with the Hive so I'm guessing it's a Hive class.
ProgoEdited by Progo: 9/3/2013 3:09:02 PM PermalinkEverloving - 11/18/2015 3:28:53 AMHive bro ;) oh this is really old
Dus Maximum5/29/2013 3:57:06 PM PermalinkThese are all but confirmed to be the Glimmer's ships. The style of that enemy and these ships are completely different; there's no way that this is the Glimmer. The best theory about what the Glimmer actually are is that they are a phantom-like race, who control other races to use as soldiers. [url=http://www.cinemablend.com/images/sections/52668/Destiny_52668.jpg]Take a look at this image[/url]. The Cabal and Fallen in it have a strange blue mist covering them, they are carrying no weapons, walking together, and each glowing the same colour of blue. This blue-green colour is similar to the beams which are coming out of the ships above. [url=http://cdn2-b.examiner.com/sites/default/files/styles/image_full_width_scaled/hash/a4/7a/a47afbbb1d5810a348c9c0032142fe24.jpg?itok=qRRePy-D]Furthermore look at these concept art images for the 5 enemy types in Destiny[/url]. The glimmer is the yellow column, as you can see by their triangular ships. Notice the other two things in this concept art? A strange, ghost-like figure, and a cloud of mist; the same mist we see in the previous image. As for what I think this race is? I say Cabal because of it's large structure, but it very well could be the Hive too.
Fenris Amarok5/29/2013 5:35:54 PM PermalinkDefinitely a different class of hive. The hive are built to look like zombies, that's pretty zombie like. We already know what cabal look like, they're giant, grotesque hippo/ogre things. Nothing like the creature I'm question.
Stalwart5/29/2013 3:25:47 PM Permalink...hm... IDK, it could just be an unbuilt Fallen/Cabal... or it could be a "glimmer." I'll wait for E3.
MoReCoWbELLx2x15/29/2013 3:22:01 PM PermalinkI'm assuming it's a type of cabal that they were in stage of development for. As in they hadn't added all the other things, it's like a shell.

Think differently about behaviour intervention - use the 5P Approach!
Introducing the 5P Approach
The 5P Approach offers a practical framework which can be used by professionals, parents and organisations who want a better understanding about the behaviour of children and young people with autism spectrum disorders and how to prevent problems from arising, who want help with the process of managing behaviour change and who want to adopt a preventative and positive approach to intervention. Since its development, the 5P Approach has been used within many schools and organisations for individuals, within classes and groups or as a basis for a whole school or organisation approach to intervention - whatever the individuals' needs.
The 5P Approach Philosophy
The 5P Approach uses the distinctive GREEN, AMBER & RED traffic light colours to distinguish between levels of behaviour and places the emphasis on using different strategies at the different levels.
The priority is understanding the individual really well (Profiling) and then creating a plan to ensure their needs are met. It is also about finding out why an individual behaves in certain ways, what factors influence their behaviour and identifying any early warning signs (AMBER) that indicate that challenging behaviours may be developing. This forms the basis for developing a preventative and positive intervention plan for the individual ( knowns as "Working with Me" or a PIP) which includes supporting them to learn new skills. The 5P Approach provides a 5 step framework to help with this whole process.

More California Schemin'
Two new Golden State trends one hopes will stay put.
Mattole Valley, California -- It is often said that California is a bellwether of the next trend -- pop culture or public policy -- that will sweep the nation. Last week there were two bells ringing in the news here that you should hope will not weather a trip eastward over the Sierra Nevada.
One was the matter of "reparations" for descendants of 19th Century slaves; the other a $95 million computer contract dispensed by the state to the Oracle Company without bidding. Both are already becoming entangled in election year politics.
California entered the union in September 1850 -- after heated debate -- as a free state. Soon, it may become the first state to grant -- or mandate -- "reparations." The other day several insurance companies -- in response to a state demand -- made public insurance policies they (or, in most cases, predecessor companies) issued to slave owners before the Civil War. These are not California companies, although they do do business in the state.
This information provides fuel for the plaintiffs who are suing these companies for "reparations." In the event the suit goes forward and prevails, the companies will fork over something on the order of hundreds of millions of dollars. It won't, however, be doled out to the great-great-grandchildren of various slaves, but will go to "charitable" organizations of the sort Jesse Jackson and other shakedown artists operate.
As long as we're talking reparations, wouldn't it be poetic justice if a "commission" were required to be paid out of the proceeds to descendants (or to worthy charities) of the soldiers who fought to free the slaves? My great-grandfather, from Wisconsin, contracted malaria fighting in Tennessee. His compensation: a very tiny government pension for a lifelong disability. There must have been thousands like him.
Meanwhile, in Sacramento, Governor Gray Davis is issuing statements of shock and dismay that the state drew up a sole-source contract with Oracle for computer work. As things go, he may have been unaware of the matter until it became a problem. Nevertheless, the people involved are all appointees of his. His General Services administrator has resigned, as has the state's director of Information Technology, whose office -- shades of Arthur Andersen -- was caught shredding documents about the transaction. A long-time Davis aide, the director of something called "e-government," also resigned. It seems he accepted a $25,000 contribution to Davis's reelection campaign a day or two after the contract was approved.
Davis's office insists this was a coincidence. The attorney general, a Davis ally, noted that the official , Arun Baheti, did not violate a law in accepting the check because he did not receive it in the capitol -- felony -- but at a restaurant. Good government lives!
Davis's challenger in November, Bill Simon, Jr., said of all this, "The dots are beginning to connect."
Despite a war chest of $30 million, Davis is very unpopular in the state. A large budget deficit and the recent energy crisis are sources of voter discontent. The statewide Field Poll last week showed his favorable percentage at 39 and his unfavorables at 50 percent. The Field Poll also showed him ahead of Simon by 43-29, contrary to several other polls showing them virtually tied or Simon slightly ahead. Field typically polls people who say they are registered, but not whether they vote regularly. Thus, Field's results tend to overstate Democratic strength.
Nevertheless, pros in both camps think Davis's formidable war chest will prevail. Democrats tend to think it will be by 10-15 points; Republicans by about half that. All may be forgetting that November is a long way from early May and Simon is husbanding his resources for use later.
Challengers have a hard time breaking into the news unless they offer up some big program or say something foolish. Incumbent governors can make news every day, although Davis must wish the news about the Oracle contract would go away. So far, the state's media are not obliging him.

NBA Playoffs 2013: Potential First Round Upsets
|3 years ago
|class of '12 - away - #1
2370 pageviews
38 comments
For those who believe that the New York Knicks are illegitimate NBA championship contenders, stop yourself short. The Knicks are an elite three-point shooting team that has rediscovered their elite defense since the signing of Kenyon Martin.
With that being said, the Knicks drew the worst first-round draw possible when they landed a seven-game series against the Boston Celtics.
The Knicks and Celtics are longtime rivals who always seem to bring the best out of one another. While New York won three of four during the regular season, the postseason is an entirely different animal.
For what it's worth, the Celtics reached the 2012 Eastern Conference Finals while the Knicks haven't made it out of the first round since 2000.
The Celtics may be without Rajon Rondo, but they are still led by former NBA champions Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Jason Terry. With Jeff Green's rise to stardom and the pairing of Avery Bradley and Courtney Lee playing elite defense, the Celtics have the depth and star power to pull off the upset.
Even if the Knicks are rationally favored, don't sleep on Boston.
No. 3 Denver Nuggets vs. No. 6 Golden State Warriors
Most teams are fortunate enough to get healthy at the perfect time of the season. In the case of the Denver Nuggets, they've seen Danilo Gallinari go down with a torn ACL and Kenneth Faried suffer a sprained ankle during the final month of the season.
That's bad news considering the Nuggets are in line to play another elite offensive team in the Golden State Warriors.
Gallinari's ability to shoot the three-ball will be missed, although it shouldn't be too devastating for the Nuggets. They can compensate for his absence by plugging in spot shooters who are capable in spot-up situations.
Against a Warriors team that's eighth in three-point field goals and first in three-point field goal percentage, however, that may not be enough.
The true absence to be missed, however, is Faried's. Not only is Faried an elite rebounder, but he's preparing to go up against David Lee in this series.
For those unfamiliar, Lee is fourth in rebounding and leads the league with 55 double-doubles.
If Faried is not at 100 percent, Lee will exploit that advantage on both ends of the floor. This will enable the Warriors to create second-chance scoring opportunities and capitalize with the three-ball.
That's more than enough for the Warriors to take down a defensively-inept Nuggets team in four out of seven games.
No. 1 Oklahoma City Thunder vs. No. 8 Los Angeles Lakers
Before we get into the blind hatred of the Los Angeles Lakers, it's important that we remember who we're talking about. Even without Kobe Bryant, the Lakers are an elite team that thrive in the areas the Oklahoma City Thunder have trouble.
For what it's worth, I'm pretty sure a core of Dwight Howard, Pau Gasol and Steve Nash is elite for any other franchise.
Assuming Howard and Gasol work it inside, they can slow it down and create easy baskets for their shooters. With Steve Blake catching fire, Nash one of the all-time great shooters and Jodie Meeks finding his stroke, L.A. could keep the pace.
Don't put your money on it, but this is possible.
Howard led the Orlando Magic to the 2009 NBA Finals with a significantly weaker supporting cast than he currently possesses. As long as Nash is able to get healthy, there's no reason he can't do the same in 2013.
Kobe will be missed, but this is not an impossibility—no matter how badly we want to tell ourselves it is.

Hold up.. is there even a chance the Lakers play OKC? I think that can only be the case if both the Lakers and Jazz lose their last game. If the Lakers beat Houston, the Rockets will be the 8th seed, same record but Houston has a worse divisional record. Can't see both the Lakers and the Jazz losing tonight.
Correct me if I'm wrong though.

JACKSON, Tenn. (AP) -- The National Weather Service has determined storms that caused damage in Madison County did not contain tornadoes, but the wind was very strong.
NWS found evidence of 80 mph winds on Thursday, particularly in the northern section of the county.
Gary Riley, who lives in the area, told The Jackson Sun his family lost its barn and 18 oak trees, some of which were 30 inches in diameter. Riley said the trees are twisted and look like they were toppled by a twister that didn't touch down.
C.D. Luckey lives in the neighborhood and he said Davidson Yard Cemetery lost five trees and some tombstones were knocked off their slabs. At least one was broken.

It work. You will not get so much traffic. But as valuable links it still works.
Try this service EasySubmits - Free Directory Submission
Actualy all your links are submitted, but those 30% are probably not accepted.
When you start submitting you will be overwhelmed by email of succesfull submissions.

Directory Submission is still effective..
@ Hellas -
Many can get 80% Approval rate. If we will meet their guidelines they will not reject..
directory submission still work good for serp.
but it take up to 3 month to give effect and i think u r just subit in directories 5-10 days before and make this thread.
its is also depend on your target keyword compitions. if your keyword have high compitions in google search then u have need to submit in more directories and have need to do good SEO.
Premium Directory :: PR4 Submit Your Link
Lamrod.org :: Best Product Review and Price Comparison Site One LD :: PR1 Directory
Just a tip, but when you submit to directories, make sure you use different anchor text every 10-20 submissions. Otherwise, if your anchor text is the same on a hundred of directories when you get accepted and indexed, google will not show the links when you type "link:somesite.com"...
IMHO, the link text can have just a slight difference, such as punctuation if you are targeting a specific keyword.
On 5 June I purchased 2200 directory submissions for three web sites. The submissions were completed within the next few days.
Looking at the pattern of page impressions before and after the submissions, I see no pattern of improvement.
Much more recently, I've initiated a much larger series of directory submissions using the directory list and tool at Easy Submits.
Has anyone else done recent tests with directory submission where they did no other concurrent promotion?
Submit Your Webmaster Related Sites to the NB Directory
I swear, by my life and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine.
Yes, I have done several tests.Has anyone else done recent tests with directory submission where they did no other concurrent promotion?
These still work. You just don't need to do 2200, about 100 of the better ones should do just fine. (i.e., higher PR on their home pages so you can get crawled).
The key here, though, is to NOT use the exact link text in your titles. Make sure you include your link text but make sure it's not exact. Use something like "Net Builders Webmaster Forum" if you keyword phrase is "webmaster forum". Or use "Webmaster Forum at NetBuilders.org".
If you use the exact link text as the title of your submissions it will NOT work.

I chose this article because I have not sensed the endorsement of self-directed learning that I experienced, say 10 years ago. However, the author describes different tech tools that support the idea of self-directed learning. Certainly, social media and the availability of knowledge and resources that support it (animations, tutorials, videos) make self-directed learning a more realistic venture.

UX is king.
The problem with UX (user experience) is that customers only really notice its absence. If you absolutely nail the UX of your digital product, the only people who will congratulate you are UX nerds like me. If you mess it up, though, you'll know about it soon enough. You'll notice the complaints. You'll notice the attrition. You'll notice the churn.

Spannende consequentie voor onderwijs, als niet de vakinhoud er meer toe doet, maar wat je ermee doet, wat je ermee kunt en wat je ervaart.
1. user experience
2&3. toegankelijkheid en keuzemogelijkheden
4. kosten
5. data
Maar dan komt de toets ... interessant.

ROCKFORD — New federal reporting standards for public pension plans will cause an overnight ballooning of liabilities for many taxpayer-sponsored systems and could cost Illinois more when it tries to borrow money.
ROCKFORD — New federal reporting standards for public pension plans will cause an overnight ballooning of liabilities for many taxpayer-sponsored systems and could cost Illinois more when it tries to borrow money.
The Government Accounting Standards Board, an independent, seven-member nonprofit board that sets generally accepted accounting principals for the public sector, released new reporting standards for the nation's public-sector pension plans last month. The standards, which take effect in 2014, will require the plans to be more conservative in how they calculate their liabilities and will have the likely effect of decreasing the funded ratio of most plans in the country.
On paper, anyway. In practice, the rules won't override any state's pension funding laws or mandate more contributions to the plans.
"It's a perception problem. What these reporting standards do is set up a worst-case scenario for funding," said Dave Urbanek, spokesman for the Illinois Teachers' Retirement System. "We had a problem before they came out, and we'll have a problem after they're out. They don't present a solution to the problem."
TRS could face one of the largest drops in funded ratios — or the percentage of funds on hand to meet expected liabilities — in the nation. According to data complied by the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College, the fund's 48.4 percent funded ratio in the 2010 fiscal year would drop to 18.8 percent under the new GASB reporting requirements.
TRS isn't the only plan that would have taken a hit in 2010 under the new standards. The State Employees' Retirement System and State Universities Retirement System both would have seen devaluations in their funded ratios of 22.6 percentage points and 6.2 percentage points, respectively, according to the Boston College study. The Illinois Municipal Retirement fund, which receives its funding from local governments and not the state, would have seen its funded ratio improve by 3 percentage points.
Overall, 126 state and municipal pension plans would have seen liabilities jump by $600 billion, or about 18 percent, according to the Boston College study. The data doesn't include the stock market rebound in 2011 or the cuts to pension plans undertaken in many states.
Where Illinois could get socked as a result of the change in GASB standards is in its borrowing costs. The state is seeing higher-than-average interest rates in the bond market when it borrows money, in part because of its $83 billion unfunded pension liability to the five state-funded systems. If the underfunding goes up under the GASB rules, which would-be bond buyers would, in turn, use to make their evaluations, it's going to cost Illinois taxpayers more in interest payments.
Credit ratings agency Moody's Investors Service is poised to start valuing pension debt using its own methodology that's even more stringent than the new GASB standards. According to a report in Pensions & Investments, Moody's plans to recalculate the debt in a method closer to the conservative estimates used in the private sector, which would increase Illinois' debt from $83 billion to nearly $135 billion.

Here is the site I am working on:
I'd like to add submenu's for the main menu items that look like this wordpress site:
So they show up on a hoover but also permanently when that page is open. I am a complete beginner to wordpress and not excessively code saavy. I have tried looking up various ways to do this but it either isn't what I want or I can't figure out how to integrate it into my wordpress code. Can anyone suggest a solution or place to gain more information on the topic? Thank you all! :)

Figure 1.
Assay for the spatial dissection of the thermal noxious response. (A) Schematic of the localized thermal pulse assay. (B) An infrared laser pulse with a 220 um beam diameter (full width half maximum) was used to locally stimulate the entire worm from head to tail, N = 442. The head (1–10), midbody (16–26), and tail (31–41) regions are demarcated using the 41 points along the entire "skeleton" of the worm body. An example of the selective targeting of the head is shown. The probability of the first behavioral state after the laser pulse is shown for head, midbody, and tail regions. The head, midbody, and tail responses are statistically different, p < 0.001, Fisher's exact test. (C) Raw video data of the worm after a head-applied laser stimulus is shown as a time-lapse sequence. After the laser pulse is applied, the worm enters a reversal (red), followed by an omega turn (green), and then resumes its forward motion (blue). (D) Thermal profile of 133 ms IR pulse measured using a thermal camera for three pulse amplitudes (60, 100, and 150 mA), where the largest full width half maximum (FWHM) was measured to be 220 μm for the 150 mA laser pulse.

Stanchart Lowers Dollar Forecasts After 'Powerful' Bond Rally
Standard Chartered Plc lowered its forecasts for the U.S. dollar versus the yen and the Swiss franc, citing a "powerful rally" in Treasuries that narrowed the premium offered by U.S. rates.
The extra yield investors get from 10-year Treasuries over similar Japanese bonds dropped to the lowest since May 2009 after a U.S. report yesterday showed inflation remains muted and Group of 20 nations leaders agreed over the weekend on a target for cutting budget deficits. The Swiss franc yesterday climbed to a record versus the euro as a member of the nation's central bank said deflationary tensions "practically disappeared."
"There's not a powerful reason anymore to move out of holding long JGBs into long-term Treasuries," said Robert Minikin, a senior foreign-exchange strategist in Hong Kong at Standard Chartered. "The appetite for the Swiss National Bank to intervene to weaken the Swiss franc has clearly been substantially diluted and that is supportive for the franc."
The dollar will advance to 93.5 yen in the third quarter and 95 yen by year-end, the bank said today, trimming a previous estimate for the U.S. currency to reach 98 yen and 100 yen respectively. The greenback will buy 1.19 francs by Sept. 30 and 1.17 by December, rather than 1.25 and 1.23 as earlier forecast, according to the report.
The U.S. currency fell 0.5 percent to 88.94 yen as of 12:46 p.m. in Tokyo, compared with yesterday in New York, and traded at 1.0874 Swiss francs.
Demand for the yen and Swiss franc has been bolstered as measures of market volatility, such as the VIX index, remain elevated, Minikin said. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index is poised for an 8.1 percent retreat since March 31, snapping a four-quarter streak of gains.
"Market conditions remain very uncertain and jittery and that's keeping model-based buyers of high-yield crosses like Aussie-yen on the sidelines," he said.

IDW Star Trek Ongoing...

Re: IDW Star Trek Ongoing...
I'm not talking about "movies." As I have repeatedly tried to explain, I am talking about three specific individuals named Jeffrey Jacob Abrams, Alexander Hilary Kurtzman, and Roberto Gaston Orci, and what
their own specific creative records
show about their ability to create strong, central, empowered female characters. You're obsessing on one isolated example of their work and ignoring all the female-led shows they've created or produced --
Felicity, Alias, Fringe, Undercovers, Xena
. It is ridiculous to say that the people behind those shows are unwilling or unable to write about women as more than sex objects or set dressing. I don't even know why you
to claim that about those three specific men. There's plenty of actual sexism out there you're welcome to condemn, but why accuse these three people in particular when the evidence overwhelmingly shows the opposite?

John Muir was a naturalist, or someone who is interested in nature. He helped protect millions of acres of land in the United States.
- John Muir - Student Encyclopedia (Ages 11 and up)
(1838-1914). Because of American naturalist, explorer, and writer John Muir, the United States national park system was greatly expanded. In 1903 he made a camping trip in Yosemite with President Theodore Roosevelt, who absorbed Muir's enthusiasm for nature. During the remainder of Roosevelt's presidency, 148 million acres (60 million hectares) were set aside as national forests; 16 national monuments, including Muir Woods in California, were established; and the number of national parks doubled.

In this ever-changing landscape in the NHL, where salary cap often dictates who you keep and who you don't, the good teams always seem to have another less-experienced player or two standing by ready to take advantage of his opportunity.
In Detroit, we've seen the emergence of Darren Helm up front and Jonathan Ericsson on defense. But there are more Red Wings waiting in the wings as we saw in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final.
With the clock becoming a factor early in the third period of a tight game -- Detroit leading 2-1 over Pittsburgh in Game 1 -- 24-year-old Finnish winger Ville Leino, signed as a free agent last summer, had control of the puck behind the Penguin net. Another rookie, 22-year-old Justin Abdelkader, is at the side of the net to the left of Pittsburgh goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury.
"I was kind of trying to buy time," Leino said. "Then I heard Justin yell at me that he was open. I waited another second or two to see which way the Pittsburgh players were going to go and then ..."
Quick pass to Abdelkader, the former Michigan State star, who quickly got off a shot that was stopped by Fleury. Then ...
"The puck sort of squirted in the air. I jumped up to get it," said a somewhat surprised Abdelkader. "I didn't waste any time getting off another shot ... and luckily it went in."
The conflict and suspense of seeing key players go out of the lineup for a shift or a game ... or two ... and seeing that unlikely hero step up is always delicious.
This time it was a veteran Finnish Elite League player in Leino and a former U.S. college standout, both of whom spent most of the season with the Red Wings' AHL farm club at Grand Rapids.
"Ville probably should have been here all year," coach Mike Babcock said earlier in the playoffs. "He's got a presence about him that I really like. He's great with the puck. He can hold onto it for a long time and then make just the right play."
Babcock has also been raving about the future of Abdelkader, "Just is going to be one of those strong players who can get in hard on the forecheck. He's strong kid and may not put a lot of points on the score sheet. But he'll make points with his coach for his hard work and strong play."
Quick quiz -- Who was the last player to score his first goal -- counting regular-season or playoff games -- in the Stanley Cup Final before Detroit's Justin Abdelkader scored an insurance goal in the third period to help the Red Wings win Game 1, 3-1?
Answer: Jim Paek for Pittsburgh in the 1991 Cup Finals against the Minnesota North Stars.
Abdelkader had previously played in four regular-season and seven playoff games. And he scored that goal playing just nine shifts, with just five minutes, 10 seconds of ice time.
As good as it gets -- Chris Osgood, criticized and ridiculed for his poor play in the regular season, once again showed he's money in the bank in the Final after stopping 31 of 32 shots in Detroit's 3-1 Game 1 victory. The triumph boosted Ozzie's career record in the championship round to 9-2. His .818 winning percentage in the Finals is the highest by any of the 34 goaltenders with 10-or-more decisions in Stanley Cup Finals history.
"I think the goalie is the most important player every night. It's hockey. It's like that every year," Babcock said. "I we turned over way too many pucks, but I thought Ozzie did a good job for us. He made some critical saves.
Possession is nine-tenths of the law -- Even without perennial faceoff ace Kris Draper in Game 1 (57 percent winning percentage in his career), the Red Wings were lights out with their puck possession game.
In Game 1, Detroit won 39 of 55 draws -- highlighted by Henrik Zetterberg winning 15 of 20 faceoffs (75 percent) and Darren Helm won 11 of 15 (73 percent).
"We've done our homework on these guys," Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said after Game 1. "I know it's an area of focus. They're a puck possession team as are we. And starting with the puck is better than not.
"One of the things we've talked about is our wingers being aware and ready to jump in and help out. The center man doesn't often win it clean back, a lot of those faceoff become puck battles off the draw. That's an area we can do a better job at."
Offense from defense -- Defenseman Brad Stuart got credit for Detroit's first goal when his shot bounced off the springy boards at Joe Louis Arena back out in front of the net and hit goalie Marc-Andre Fleury.
And Brian Rafalski's shot-pass set up Johan Franzen for the eventual game-winning goal for the Red Wings.
His goal in Game 1 was his second in 17 games in the 2009 playoffs after tallying the same number in 67 regular-season games. And this comes on the heels of last year's Final when Brad was second in scoring on the Red Wings in the Final series against Pittsburgh with 1 goal and 4 assists in six games, including the game-winning goal in Game 2.
Another number of note: Stuart has scored six goals in 13 career regular-season games against the Penguins and has a pair of goals against them in seven playoff games.
Chalk it up to ... -- Red Wings defenseman Brian Rafalski was asked about the weird bounces in Game 1 and he reacted like too much is being made of the issue with the springy boards at Joe Louis Arena, even if Brad Stuart and Johan Franzen's goals could be attributed to lively backboards.
"I don't know about weird bounces," said Rafalski. "I'd say true
bounces. To me, it's almost like a pool table, where you play the puck off the boards at an angle and it comes out strong. Not weird, but fair."
Pittsburgh defenseman Rob Scuderi wouldn't use the boards as an excuse, but offered this comment: "At Mellon Arena you can throw it in there at 100 mph and it's not going to make it out to the goal line. I think the boards here cost us one goal last year (in three games in the Finals), so we were aware of it, but it's not something we hadn't worked on since we got here."
No Déjà vu -- In retrospect to seeing the Penguins fall behind 1-0 in Detroit to start the Stanley Cup Final after being shut out in the first two games at Joe Louis Arena to start the 2008 Cup Finals, Penguins defenseman Rob Scuderi suggested that his team was OK with the competition in Game 1 unlike their trip to Detroit at the start of last year's Final.
"Having played them a couple of times this season, we were more
prepared to face them," said Scuderi. "Last year was a big eye-opener for us the way they came at us from the start. They are talented. They are skilled. They try to force you to play their game where they have the puck most of the time.
"In Game 1 this time around, we felt we were right with them, even when it was 3-1. Not like last year when we were run out of here in the first two games."

As we look back at the economic roller-coaster ride that was
2009, we can't help but marvel at the growing influence of mobile and wireless
solutions in the enterprise. For every tale we hear about budgets being trimmed
and deployments getting delayed in the face of economic hardship, we hear
another example of an enterprise that is driven by the economy to accelerate
its mobile and wireless initiatives.
These efforts run the gamut in terms of types of deployment
and verticals served. We're seeing field service organizations that are moving from
legacy solutions and outdated pen-and-paper processes to rugged mobile
computers and applications that enable real-time information access -- thereby
transforming entire business processes. We're hearing about corporate,
healthcare and educational campuses embracing WiFi for everything from data
access to asset tracking. And, we're hearing about the influx of mobile devices
across all levels of organizations as workers at all levels are recognizing the
value of mobility and demanding ways to use it. This is raising heated debate,
especially in IT circles, about the benefits and risks of corporate-owned
versus individual liable devices, and how organizations can protect themselves as they meet the needs of an
increasingly mobile workforce.
This is being driven, in part, by the sheer number of new
smartphones, including the latest Apple iPhone iteration, next generation
BlackBerry Storm and Bold, new Android and Windows Mobile device lineups, and
of course the Palm Pre. All these devices and operating systems are reshaping
our world of work. We'll also be taking a hard look at how enterprises are
managing mobile and wireless expenses, the state of their relationships with
wireless carriers is like, and what 4G and wireless VoIP will mean for the
enterprise, among other topics. We look forward to sharing this and much more
with you in the year ahead, and wish you a prosperous and fascinating 2010.

The price rose massively here some time ago, over a year ago iirc.
Hi Michael,
I know that you would not advocate a simple substution. I was answering Bob C's post which appearred to ask just that question. I also wanted to post D-76H as a remedy to the cost of hydroquinone. Since there is nothing to regenerate the metol as it is used up this version cannot be replenished. Looking back I was probably a bit rude to reply since Bob's question was addressed to you. My apologies.
Hi John,
I have used D-76H in the past and the results appear to be identical to those of D-76. This formula also points out that at the low pH of D-76 the main purpose of the hydroquinone is to regenerate the metol as it is consumed. This can be seen from the rather small adjustment to the metol to compnsate for the lack of developing activity from the hydroquinone.
Indeed it seems in many low pH, dual-agent fine grain developers there is functionally one primary agent doing the direct development (Metol in the case of D76) while the secondary agent's function is to regenerate the primary agent. In the case of MQ developers like D-76 as you point out the pH is too low for HQ to be active enough as a primary developing agent.
Interestingly this appears to be the case with modern Metol-Pyrogallol developers too, where the working pH (below 10 in the cases of both WD2D and PMK) is too low for Pyro to do much direct developing.
What is your take on XTOL though? At its working pH it would appear the Phenidone derivative is the direct developing agent and the ascorbic acid regenerates the Phenidone. However I remember reading that Zawadzki believed the ascorbic acid was the primary developing agent. That might have been a misquote though.

What are the benefits of double glazing compared to single glazing?
Keeps Heat In
The most obvious benefit of double glazing is the feeling you have as you stand or sit near windows and doors. If you are sitting near a single glazed window or door you will feel a cold draft that indicates cold air is getting inside the building but also that heat is getting out. Double glazing prevents the heat from escaping by using two layers of glass with a pocket of air trapped between them. The air forms an insulating layer that helps a home with double glazing retain up to 60% more heat than a home with single glazing according to site claritywindows.co.uk.
Reduction in Energy Costs
It is quite logical that a home's ability to retain more of its heat will also lead to a lower energy bill. Both gas and electric heating bills will benefit from the extra insulation that double glazing provides. Double glazing is one of the best home improvements you can do because the cost of installing double glazing pays for itself in energy savings within the first few years.
Noise Reduction
Do you live in a noisy city? Do your windows rattle and whistle in strong winds? These are issues that double glazing can solve. Double glazing can insulate your home from cold air, as well as from the loud and constant noises from outside. Traffic noises become more bearable and late night or early morning disruptions are less frequent.
Easy Maintenance
Double glazing will have a big impact on the amount of work you have to do each year to keep your windows in good shape. The only maintenance the double glazed windows may require is a wash to keep them clean. Single glazed windows need to be sanded, painted and sealed to prevent water damage and rot. If a frame or windowsill gets damaged it has to be replaced and you might have to climb a ladder in a dangerous area of your home to make repairs.
Reduced Repair Costs
The most common repair associated with a double glazed window is a damaged seal. If the seal is damaged it will allow water to get into the gap where the layer of air is supposed to be. This is actually a very simple fix that many repairmen can do in a few hours for only £60-£80. It can be difficult to find a repairman to make the expensive, difficult and time-consuming fixes that many single glazed windows require when they are damaged.
Adds Value
Newer, professionally installed double glazing not only looks better than old, damaged single glazing but it can have an effect on the value of your home. UK homes must have energy efficiency tests similar to those that appliances have. A home with a better energy rating is much easier to sell and can be sold at a higher price.
Now you can see how many benefits you will have with double glazing. This home improvement project is one that is worth the investment. One that you will profit from for years.

So, how was it? Well, if any of your friends in Cleveland were wondering what the marriage between Kid Rock and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra sounded like, all they would have had to do was stick their heads out the window and cock their ears to the west around 8:30 p.m. and they would have clearly heard Devil Without a Cause.
But beyond the volume, there was a lot of entertainment, energy and even a few moments of enlightenment, when the unlikely partnership between Kid Rock and the DSO really took flight. The most fully realized moments were the ballads, especially Times Like These, where arranger Rob Mathes created a long, imaginative introduction full of richly dappled strings and tasteful counterpoint. Kid Rocks rough-hewn but expressive vocals sat on a comfy orchestral bed. If I were Kid Rock, Id record this chart.
I also liked the Copland-like brass chorale on Rock On with more moving counter-lines in the low brass. The DSO brass section had a very good night, and so did music director Leonard Slatkin, looking as relaxed as anyone in Kid Rocks band. On the rap-rock hits, the DSO was mostly window dressing I could see the strings playing but couldnt always hear them. But they were smiling, and so was I, even as I wished Id remembered the earplugs.

DALLAS (March 14, 2013)—One man died and another was wounded when shots were fired early Thursday outside a nightclub in Dallas during an altercation that involved an off-duty police officer.
The officer was providing security at the club early Thursday morning when the confrontation between two groups broke out in the parking lot.
Multiple shots were fired at around 2:15 a.m. Thursday and the officer discharged his duty weapon in an attempt to intervene.
It wasn't immediately clear who fired the fatal shot or the shot that left the other man wounded.
He was in stable condition Thursday at Parkland Memorial Hospital.
Multiple witnesses were taken to a police station in an effort to sort out the incident.

I'm at the beginning of my coding journey. The hard part was figuring out where to start and then where to go from there. It took me about a month to figure it out, but now I'm off and running.
I wrote this blog, so that other people can get started too and see where it goes from there. I'm not an expert coder by any means, I'm just dropping some knowledge that got me in the game.
I mixed in a little Lord of the Rings to spice things up and Urbanism because I'm an Urban Planner. Enjoy!

Lana Del Rey's Long-Awaited Tropico Film's Eerie New Trailer
Tropico was mysteriously referred to as "the farewell project" by Lana in a tweet months ago, though no one is sure what exactly the significance of this statement is. Maybe it's closure on the enormously successful Born To Die/Paradise era; it could be the death of a particular persona; it could signify the end of Lana Del Rey's career as we know it (hopefully not). According to rumors, Tropico was originally set to premiere in both NYC and the Hollywood Forever Cemetery (!). That no longer seems to be the case, but how brilliant would that have been?

Huskies hope to stay stingy at home
UW hosts Stanford today boasting a perfect record at Hec Ed
SEATTLE - For most of the Pac-10 season, the University of Washington men's basketball team has continued its Jekyll-and-Hyde trend of looking like two different teams, depending on the venue.
The Huskies hope to keep it up this evening.
In town is a Stanford team that handed UW its first Pac-10 loss four weeks ago in Palo Alto. The Huskies hope to reverse that result tonight, and they have motivation on their side.
"We remember that they threw the ball in the air, they celebrated, and we'll be ready," UW guard Isaiah Thomas said of the Cardinal, who will face the Huskies today at 5:30 p.m.
Stanford had every reason to celebrate after shocking UW, which was ranked 17th in the nation and unbeaten in Pac-10 play when the teams squared off on Jan. 13. The Cardinal had a respectable 9-5 overall record and had won two of their first three conference games, but Stanford didn't appear to have any realistic shot at being a Pac-10 contender.
Then the Cardinal rallied from an 11-point second-half deficit and shocked UW 58-56.
"I think it grounded us," UW senior Matthew Bryan-Amaning said this week. "That's why I think we came back so strong against Cal (in a 92-71 win two days later). We got back to playing with a lot more intensity, and we were trying not to have any more slipups. It was a close game, and we know that in this league, anybody can beat anybody."
Since the upstart Cardinal proved that theory by knocking off the Pac-10's biggest dog, the Huskies have lost their bite, so to speak. Heading into this week, UW had lost three games in a row while falling into third place in the Pac-10. Another win over Cal two days ago helped restore some order in Husky Nation, but all that love could be gone by Valentine's Day if UW loses another game to Stanford tonight.
"I think we'll be dialed in," Huskies coach Lorenzo Romar said. "I think I mentioned (to reporters Tuesday) that I would be surprised if we weren't dialed in (for Thursday's game against Cal), and I think we'll be dialed in again Saturday."
Working in UW's favor this time are a renewed focus on defense and one of the more significant home-court advantages in college basketball. The Huskies (16-7 overall, 8-4 in the Pac-10) are one of 26 Division I teams to have won all their home games this season and one of only two — the other is Northern Colorado — to have beaten each visiting opponent by double-digit margins. Among the teams unbeaten at home, UW holds the highest margin of victory, at 27.3. The only other teams with margins of victory above 25 points at home are 18th-ranked Kentucky (25.9) and No. 1 Ohio State (25.8).
Romar was asked after the Cal game Thursday night whether he's ever had a UW team that has had such a wide disparity between home and road performances.
"I don't think we have, to be honest with you," he said. "If there's a way to close the gap a little bit, then we could really be a tough team down the stretch here."
With only two road games remaining before the postseason, the Huskies won't have too many chances to close that gap.
Their only objective tonight is to continue their dominance at home. And in the process, maybe UW can get a little revenge.
Perfect and untested
UW is one of 26 teams that have gone unbeaten at home so far this season. Here is a look at the best of those teams in terms of point differential:

Oakland residents know all too well how high their electric bills are. The next grid rate hike is being planned right now. Yet, there is relief from this continued madness, solar power. Finally, zero down solar is a reality, and when you make the switch you save thousands of dollars in electric bills.
Fossil fuels harm the environment, are expensive, and are in short supply. Yet, the local electric company still relies on these fuels to produce electricity. Fossil fuels keep going up. Naturally, the gird is going to pass any increases on to the consumer. On the other hand, solar panels use the power of the sun. The sun is in infinite supply and is clean energy.
Today's solar is so advanced when compared to just a year or two ago. Solar panels generate power during the day, yet can store power to a reserve for evening use. Those that choose this solar option pay zero electric bills. They are totally free from the grid. They no longer pay electric bills and are completely immune to grid rate hikes and outages.
Install solar and you instantly increase the value of your property, without adding to your tax burden. Homes with solar pre-installed sell for a higher price than homes connected to the grid. This is because home buyers are tired of high electric bills and grid rate hikes too. The future of home electricity is solar power.
Fossil fuels pollute. Solar is clean. Fossil fuels are increasing in price meaning the grid will keep raising rates. When you install solar you save thousands of dollars. Plus, $0 down solar is here, and there are ample federal and state tax incentives that help you save even more money. Clearly solar is a better choice.
You can analyze your monthly electric bill, and check how much money you give the grid for a month, a year, and finally ten years. You are paying a huge amount of money for electricity, and you haven't even factored in future grid rate hikes. Solar, is the better choice, by far!
Finally, residents of Oakland already know how incredibly high their electric bills are. Yet, $0 down solar is now a reality, and when you switch to solar you save thousands of dollars. The grid's fossil fuels harm the environment. Solar uses the power of the sun which is clean energy. The choice is clear; solar is more cost effective and just better.
