Words cannot adequately express how much we miss our son, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend, Armando T. Colon. There have been many angels disguised as ordinary people who have helped us through these past few days.
We extend our sincerest thanks to the first responders, the ORMC doctors and nurses who made every attempt to save our Armando. The hospital staff was very accommodating to our big family and was very consoling in our dark time.
To the Orange County corrections/deputy sheriffs and our COBA family, who stood strong and embraced our family with their presence every day. Making sure that the family had no need to worry about transportation from far or near. For the meals their families provided and their broad shoulders to lean on. We can't thank Sheriff Carl E. DuBois enough for lending us their countless services.
To the New York State Troopers Foundation Inc. and Class 199, thank you for your support and generosity during our hardship.
To Middletown students and school district, thank you for the overwhelming love and support. Armando loved his school/tech crew and the community; he was proud to be a Middie Bear.
To the YMCA, thank you for supporting one of your YMCA kids/teens to the very end.
To Absolute Flowers, thank you for your compassion and support.
To the ROTC, war veterans and the hundreds of people who took time out of their busy lives just to pay respect to Armando and our family. We thank you.
To the media, thank you for respecting our privacy and allowing us our space to grieve.
To Father Pat at Mount Carmel Church for his comforting words. To Full Armor Christian band for the uplifting songs that soothed our hearts.
And to Applebee-McPhillips Funeral Home for their compassion, thank you so much.
To the entire community, thank you for embracing our fallen angel.
Tom & Matilda Colon and the many aunts, uncles and cousins

I agree with the recent letter to please pick up after your dog. My two dogs and I walked around Nottingham Lake.
With the melting snow, it's very evident that people are not cleaning up their dog's mess.
There are poop bags and garbage cans all around the lake. How much easier could it be?
We are so lucky to have the lake and all the beauty around us. Let's keep it clean.

Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin, meaning it is stored and transported in fat and the body can store it. Vitamin D comes from two sources: food and sunlight. The skin can synthesize vitamin D from UVB rays from the sun (UVB rays are the ones responsible for sunburn). Food sources include salmon, sardines, mackerel, milk, fortified cereal, fortified orange juice, and eggs. Other fortified foods may also have smaller amounts of vitamin D.
Vitamin D has many functions in the body and may actually act more like a hormone than a vitamin. The most well-known function of vitamin D is to help the body use and absorb calcium for bone health. Vitamin D is also important for immunity, prevention of cancer, blood pressure regulation, and insulin secretion. There is some research out there about vitamin D's role in muscle strength, depression, heart disease, prevention of diabetes, and autoimmune disease prevention.
Vitamin D recommendations were changed in 2010. Some experts still argue that the recommendations are not high enough. Vitamin D recommendations are measured in IU, or International Units, which is just a unit of measure. Recommendations for vitamin D are:
It is tough to get the recommended amount of vitamin D from food alone. That's where the sun comes in handy. Although it is a good idea to wear sunscreen when in the sun, that prohibits the skin from receiving the UVB rays it needs to make vitamin D. Just 5-10 minutes in the sun (without sunscreen) three times a week will a fair skinned person all the vitamin D they need. If sunburn is a concern within that short amount of time, then sunscreen is necessary and a supplement may be useful. Here in Missouri, we cannot get vitamin D from the sun's UVB rays between November through March, so a supplement may be needed during that time.
- Infant up to 12 months - 400 IU
- Children and adults (age 1 to age 70) including pregnant and breastfeeding women - 600 IU
- Adults age 71 and up - 800 IU
Some groups are at risk for vitamin D insufficiency:
Vitamin D supplements are fairly inexpensive and have a range of amounts from 400 IU to 2,000 IU. The Linus Pauling Institute recommends the following supplement amounts:
- Breast-fed infants - because breast milk does not have enough vitamin D, a supplement may be necessary, ask your physician.
- Individuals with dark skin - dark skin does not synthesize vitamin D as well, more sunlight or a supplement may be necessary.
- Older adults - older adults do not synthesize vitamin D in their skin as well and they may spend more time indoors (especially if in a care facility), a supplement may be necessary.
- Obesity - obesity increases the risk of vitamin D deficiency, because more body fat stores make stored vitamin D less available, a supplement may be necessary.
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a supplement of 400 IU of vitamin D daily for infants, children, and adolescents. Of course, a supplement may not be needed in the months of April through October if they are getting a small amount of sunlight (without sunscreen for a short time). If sunburn is a concern within that short amount of time, then sunscreen is necessary and a supplement may be useful.
- Infants - 400 to 1,000 IU daily
- Children - 600 to 1,000 IU daily
- Adults - 2,000 IU daily
In healthy individuals, vitamin D toxicity is unlikely in amounts under 10,000 IU. This could only occur from a supplement, vitamin D from the sunlight will not cause toxicity. The upper level intakes are set conservatively for vitamin D, but they are:
Infants (0 to 6 months) - 1,000 IU
Infants (6 to 12 months) - 1,500 IU
Children (1 to 3 years) - 2,500 IU
Children (4 to 8 years) - 3,000 IU
Children (9 and up) and all adults - 4,000 IU
As with any supplement for adults or children, you should consult with your health care provider before beginning vitamin D supplementation.

SANTA CRUZ -- In the wake of the slaying of two Santa Cruz police officers, former Defense Secretary Leon Panetta is calling for the release of the killer's court martial records.
Panetta's latest remarks come less than a week after he spoke at the funeral service for detective Sgt. Loran "Butch" Baker and detective Elizabeth Butler, saying people had "looked the other way" despite years of troubling behavior by the shooter, Jeremy Peter Goulet.
Goulet, 35, was brought up on separate rape charges in 2006, only to see the Army drop them in exchange for a "less-than-honorable" discharge.
Rather that be locked in a brig for life, Goulet continued a pattern of mayhem that ended Feb. 26 when he ambushed two detectives before being killed in a hail of gunfire.
"I think, especially in something like this, they ought to be transparent with what took place with this guy," Panetta said in an interview with the Sentinel this week. "Something allowed him to be able to move on and continue to really threaten people's lives."
The Army has not responded to repeated Sentinel requests seeking comment. Monday, Rep. Jackie Speier, a Democratic member of the House Armed Services Committee, called for a Capitol Hill hearing on the matter.
Goulet arrived in Santa Cruz late last year, saying in a Facebook posting he was looking for a fresh start. He recently had been jailed in Alameda County for peeping, after having arrived in Berkeley in 2011 from Portland, where he served two years in jail for peeping and unlawful possession of a gun.
That sentence stemmed from a 2007 incident where Goulet fought with the boyfriend of his peeping victim. During the struggle, the boyfriend told the Sentinel, he feared for his life and bit off part of Goulet's ear in an effort to end the fight.
Goulet moved to Portland immediately after his Army discharge. His then-defense lawyer told the Sentinel Goulet's first rape allegation occurred approximately a week after being stationed in Hawaii.
Despite a decade of service between the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve and the Army, Goulet was never sent to a war zone. In 2002, Goulet's reserve unit was called to active duty, but records show he was discharged a few months later.
"I think we have an obligation, when something as tragic as that happens, to ask ourselves the 'what ifs' and try to determine what went wrong here and make sure it never happens again," Panetta said. He said people should look for "symptoms of trouble" in others. Insularity could lead people to overlook developing problems among community members, he said.
We live in a society now "... where everybody hangs by their iPhone or their computer, and there's a lot of turning inward and not enough attention to the people around you," Panetta said.
A Portland jury acquitted Goulet of four serious felonies stemming from the peeping incident and fight, finding him guilty of two misdemeanors. Goulet was ordered to undergo sex offender treatment, but was rearrested after run-ins and threats toward probation officials and sent to jail for back-to-back yearlong sentences.
His Hawaii court martials, however, seem to embody ongoing criticism that military authorities are lax when it comes to sexual violence among the troops. Speier has been a critic of military handling of such cases, and as Secretary of Defense Panetta took steps to improve the military's handling of them.
"Just as we say we leave nobody behind," Panetta said, referring to common military motto, "We've got to be able to say we've got everybody's back."
Announced in April 2012, Panetta's efforts include establishing special units trained to investigate sex assault cases, explaining policies to new active duty members, allowing victims to remain on active duty, requiring and retaining records on sex assault and improved training.
"When you see (Goulet's) record and the fact that for whatever reason he was not prosecuted, and the decision was made not to do that, it is a problem that we've seen time and time again," Panetta said.
While there was outcry this week over an Air Force general's decision to overturn a subordinate's sex assault sentence, Panetta said he hoped military leaders were beginning to get the message. He also hoped that his decision to allow female soldiers onto the battlefield would speed a culture change within the military.
"Having them be able to get into combat and having them get into key positions would, in fact, make people a hell of a lot more sensitive to these kinds of issues," Panetta said. "This is not something that's going to be fixed overnight. It's going to take a dedicated effort to make sure we have a clear message out there that we have zero tolerance for sexual assault."

Hi - I have a csv file and toward the end of the file i have a line that reads
"Total Bills Exported:,496,Exported Amounts:,$555,607.27,$255,943.78"
What I need to do is replace the text so there is "" around the two dollar vaules, how do i achive this?
The desired output would be:
Total Bills Exported:,496,Exported Amounts:,"$555,607.27","$255,943.78"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
How did you create that line in the CSV file? Your example isn't technically a CSV - it's a single value that happens to contain commas. Your actual desired output should be:
"Total Bills Exported:","496","Exported Amounts:","$555,607.27","$255,943.78"
With quotes around each value.
If you could help me understand how you're getting the data into a CSV in the first place, I could make some suggestions for getting your desired output.
The CSV file is created automatically from our application. A recent update to the application code does not place the quotes around the dollar values. Our customer who receives the CSV file, built a VB program to read the CSV file and extracts the specific line that starts with "Total Bills Exported:". And now that the quotes are not present their VB program does not interpret the line correctly.
So what i want to do instead of having to wait for our developers to fix the code is after the csv file is generated i want to search that file for that specific line and add in the quotes.
Does all of this make sense???
Ah. Well, that sucks.
Ugh. Unfortunately, your CSV - with the outer quotes and internal commas - is completely invalid as far as the CSV format goes. So PowerShell isn't going to be able to read it very well.
I'd suggest using the -split operator. So...
$lines = Get-Content filename.csvforeach ($line in $lines) { $fields = $line -split ',' "$($fields[0]),$($fields[1]),$($fields[2]),`"$($fields[3])`",`"$($fields[4])`"" | out-file newfile.csv -append}
Something like that. Be really careful typing or pasting that - the back ticks are important to make it work. I know, it's ugly. I suspect there might be a prettier way, but this'll probably work, and I won't have to quiz you for twelve days for more details.
That makes sense but the dollar amounts are Hundred Thousands ($555,607.27 & $255,943.78)
when i ran your code i get the following:
Total Bills Exported:,496,Exported Amounts:,"$555","607.27"
What i need it to reade is:
Total Bills Exported:,496,Exported Amounts:,"$555,607.27"
Any thoughts? Thanks!
Yeah, so, because your dollar amounts have commas, you'll have to combine fields - you're ending up with more fields than I expected.
Hi Don,
So I have it working but my only problem now is that if the dollar amount is not in the Hundred Thousands it does not split the text correctly. Do you have any ideas to accommadate different dollar amounts?
Text Line I am searching for:
"Total Bills Exported:,*"
Actual Sample text line from Report:
Script that works for dollar amounts greater than 100K:
$RESULT=GET-CONTENT "PATH_TO_FILE\file.csv"FOREACH ($LINE in $RESULT) { if ($line.tostring() –like "Total Bills Exported:,*" ) { $fields = $line -split ',' "$($fields[0]),$($fields[1]),$($fields[2]),`"$($fields[3]),$($fields[4])`",`"$($fields[5]),$($fields[6])`"" | out-file newfile13.csv -append } ELSE { $line | out-file newfile13.csv -append }
Yeah, LOL, have the damn application output what it's supposed to in the first place. It's outputting invalid CSV; you're going to have a tough time working with it.
Frankly, you're going to have to put some pretty complex logic in place to deal with that. Hmm.
So, $field[3] will always be a $ and an amount. So you look at $field[4]. If it doesn't start with a dollar sign ($field[4] -notlike '$*'), then it's the rest of the numeric amount from $field[3] so you concatenate it with a comma. If $field[4] starts with a dollar sign, then it's its own amount.
That's what your going to have to code.
ya im almost at that point of giving up on a work-around. Can you give me an example of the syntax i would use?
Thanks Again!
Hey Don,
At this point im just looking for a quick dirty fix to this. Question for you is how can i just search for a . and any 2 numbers following the . and append a " after that.
That's a regular expression - but as far as I know PowerShell doesn't have a "regex replace" operator (like, say, PHP does). I think you'd need to get into the Framework methods to do that - e.g., http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.text.regularexpressions.regex.replace.aspx. But that's a little out of my scope - you might consider asking on StackOverflow instead. More devs hang out there.
What you're seeing is that PowerShell isn't heavily geared toward string manipulation - not in the way Perl is, for example.
It looks like you could do [System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex]::Replace($original,"\.\d{2}",$replace) - but you'd be replacing, not appending. There's a ::Split() method that's more flexible than the normal split; you could tell it to only split on the in-between commas. I dunno - honestly, you're out of my realm, there. I told you it'd be complicated. There isn't a "quick and dirty" fix to improperly-formatted delimited string data. This'd be easy in Perl; it's just not PowerShell's main schtick. Wrong tool for the job. As big a shell fan as I am, I'm not sure I'd choose it for this task.
Thanks Don.... you are 100% right, switching to Perl. Always appreciate the help and responses.

Scientists at the University of Vermont Rubenstein Laboratory for Environmental Studies are caring for hundreds of baby lamprey called transformers.
Their efforts are focused on learning how to track the migratory stage, or transformer stage, of the lamprey using pit tag devices. Efforts to control the juvenile stage of lamprey can become more targeted and efficient.
Conservation Correspondent Bridget Butler talks with graduate students, Lee Simard and Alex Sotola about their work.

~Has anyone ever had rectal bleeding after they finished running? I have been a runner for over 20 years and never experienced anything like this until the other day. I have recently been doing harder running workouts, not so much distance, just pushing harder and doing harder interval sprints and stadium steps. I average a distance of 5-6 miles and run daily. Last week I had 2 incidences of bloody diarrhea, both after a harder run. I have been running on an empty stomach with the exception of having 2 cups of coffee and a supplement of l-carnitine before I run. I also use an elliptical to do intervals at times, and never have the rectal bleeding then. If anyone has had something like this and can give me some advise I would truly appreciate it, as I am driving myself crazy with worry.
I know runners are prone to diarrhea due to the friction that is caused in our intestines from the running motion. However, you may have caused a flare-up in a condition called ulcerative colitis. I have had this for the last 4 years. If the condition doesn't clear up in a week or so, you may want to visit a GI Dr. They will probably do a colonoscopy. You will more than likely be put on a medication called Asacol. For me, I'm okay if I keep my workouts short and fairly easy. However, I'm currently training for a marathon and have been plague with your same symptoms since June. You're lucky right now that you can control your bowel movement until you're finished with your run. This may not be the case if you continue to increase your mileage and/or increase your effort level. Hopefully things will clear up.
Thanks so much for your reply and info. I had a rectal exam done and it was negative as far as any blood in the stool. My doctor now has referred me to see a colon specialist, so appears that I will be having that colonoscopy done sooner or later. I just hope this doctor has a bit more knowledge about runners, as my primary care dr. doesn't have a clue! They seem to be focusing more on anal fissures and internal hemmoroids. I dread all of this testing, as NOW I am afraid to run and haven't done so in 3 days!!! It's going to catch up to me soon & make me nutz as I haven't taken a day off of running since June.
~Thanks again for your response.
The above post is not accurate. GI bleeding after running has nothing to do with friction. When some people run, particularly long or very hard runs, the blood in your body gets shunted to the places it is needed most, namely your lungs and your muscles. Doing this, it diverts blood away from you intestines. When this happens you can partially necrose (kill) the superficial lining of your intestines, causing bloody diarrhea. Prior to becoming an avid runner myself, I have only heard about this happening to elderly people with bad vascular disease. Since becoming active in this forum, I have found that it has happened to quite a few people. Your story is classic: you have been running for a long time, but have just recently stepped up your workouts. One of the things you may want to try is keeping yourself well hydrated. That will keep your blood pressure from falling and reducing the blood flow to your intestines. Otherwise, I think you may need to train a lttle less intensely.
I know that may be asking alot, but is the great workout really worth crapping blood?
Just so you know, I am a board certified doctor who has seen his share of inflammatory bowel disease, and this is my opinion. However, "friction in the intestines' is flat out gibberish and makes no sense from a medical or physiological perspective.
Plus, your earlier comments about doctors are very judgmental. They are following the most logical and the most dangerous causes of rectal bleeding in humans. Just because you are a runner doesn't mean you are any less liable to have anal fissures, internal hemorrhoids or colon cancer than the next person. All of these things are easily diagnosable with a sigmoidoscopy or a colonoscopy. Plus, if they find cancer early, you will live to thank these "clueless" doctors."
That having been said, I stick with my above idea of your problem.
"Plus, your earlier comments about doctors are very judgmental"......
~ Thanks for you info it was very helpful and appreciated. As for your comment, I did not say ALL doctors, I said MY primary care doctor doesn't have a clue about runners. The reason as to why I made such a comment was when I said I had no other pain while running other than an occasional side stitch, she had no idea of what a 'side stitch' was.
Sorry. I guess I am getting a little touchy in my old age.
I hope you get it checked out and are back up and running (safely) soon.
I've been posting to the coolrunning message boards- I see rundiva has been there as well. Hope your scope is uneventful! I have been running distance for almost thirty years and the bleeding began about a year and a half ago. Dr. Mike's comments on this site are interesting to me as they seem to confirm everything else I have been able to find on this condition. And to his credit, stopping the intensity of my running is the only thing that stops the bleeding and at times intense discomfort. So I cross train a lot now, and keep my runs short and sweet and not more than two or three days in a row before I get on a bike or something less jarring. I can just tell some days that its not going to be a good run. Immodium often helps then, if I take it and wait a couple of hours before hitting the pavement.
I have experienced rectal bleeding after running which is pretty scary! When I told my doctor she just said it is probably a hemoriod that is on the inside. Now I am questioning this?? It is happening a bit more often on my longer runs and since I am training for a marathon I do need to train a bit harder than usual. I'm wondering if maybe I should suggest seeing a specialist? Your thoughts....
A couple of suggestions.. I respect your running experience, but I'm not sure if you are respecting it enough. You've built quite a base over the years and seem to be consistent. There really is no need to run every day any more. A couple of rest days a week should allow your aging body a better chance to heal, no matter what is getting overused or irritated. If you must do vigorous exercise every day, find a method of cross-training that uses your legs differently.
Another suggestion I would make is to avoid running stadium steps. There are other less stressful ways to strengthen hip flexors and hamstrings that are not as likely to tear anything down there.
My last suggestion is to avoid tempo runs, or runs of great intensity that cover more than a mile. If I can qualify for Boston without them, you can too. Keep your speedwork short and sweet, nothing more than mile repeats, and lots more sprints of less than a minute. Keep your longer runs on the easy side. You race will be your stressful tempo run, and the other workouts will prepare you for them without the wear and tear. In addition, your heart will thank you.
Regarding hemorrhoids, which is what I hope you have (vs. the other possibilities), there may be dietary or psychological approaches for dealing with them. Regardless of what is thought to be their cause, I had them during one of the more stressful periods of my life, and lost them when I learned to take things in stride and eat better. Take a load off, and stop beating yourself up. No one is more responsible, or in a better position to care for your body than you are.
There may be an allergen in your diet, or the fiber you are eating is too coarse (eg: wheat bran). IBS responds well after adjustments to diet and gut flora, in addition to lifestyle changes. You could charge up an enormous number of tests to fix the problem, or just experiment first. Regarding meds, are there any you may be taking that list your condition as a possible side-effect?

- SICKThis gun is the best pistol ever! It shoots so cool with fps of 155. It is better for close range and it can get the job done. It is probably the best sidearm ever.
- Awesome!... butOK i really enjoy this gun, but the only bad part of it is the mag capacity. If only there were like 100 mid cap mags for the pistol, then it would be a top hit! But it's just an aeg, so anyways, this gun is just amazing. It might not pack a punch like a gas, but it will get the job done. Fully auto is awesome, but the best part is the EXTRA MAG!!!
- Decent enoughThis gun is good if you're playing a game like capture the flag or Airsoft chicken (that's where there's one flag in the middle of a clearing and you have a runner who tries to get it before the other team does) but it's useful when you need to run as fast as you can and not think about cocking a regular gun. I have a friend who is a runner and I've been trying to convince him to get this gun because he uses a regular cocking gun and sometimes he slips when he trys to fire it. I gave this a 5 star rating based only on those types of games. It's also a decent sniper back up. I would NOT recommend this as your main gun - ONLY a back up gun.
-Cover Fire
- Uber goodI own this gun, AND IT OWNS!! Its clip size is OK, but they make up for it in the extra clip. Also it's a good sidearm for holster - nice snug fit.
Full auto
Extra clip
Texture of grip (My opinion)
Blow-back (Again my opinion)
Takes Batteries
When batteries low ROF goes down
Other than that GOOD!
- Fun Gun*Note: this is my friend's gun, but i have played with it extensively.*
This gun is fun for plinking around or playing against springers, but you will get your @$$ handed to you on a silver platter if you play against AEGs.
Fun little gun
Blow back feels cool
All plastic
Very low FPS
Short range
Magazine hard to load (it you aren't careful all the BBs will just fly out)
Get this gun if you want to have some fun with friends, not for serious airsofting.
- Buy.This is an excellent pistol for beginners and experienced players alike. I've done a few tests with this pistol comparing it to a standard spring pistol, here's the review.
high ROF (for a pistol).
no spare bbs left in the mag after you empty.
accuracy good up to about 50 feet (could also be a con if you're used to more).
small size.
personally, I really liked the grip texture.
EBB is fun, though not incredibly useful.
comes with 2 mags, which is almost a necessity based on their sizes.
very loud.
small mag capacity, that's sort of a given.
FPS seemed a little slow, even compared to the spring pistol.
Though I'm not sure how to do it myself, it is possible to upgrade the battery to 9v which would increase the ROF. It's debatable whether or not this is a good thing however. On one hand you've got the better rate of fire which suddenly makes the gun much more intimidating, and increases your likelihood of hitting the target. On the other, you not only already have a small mag size, but the gun's internals will wear out quicker. In the end I guess unless you've only got the gun to scare
your opponents, just leave the batteries be.
Overall, I recommend. This gun has great performance for the price and is very fun to use. If you've already got a primary, definitely get this for a secondary.
- Great Gun, SeriouslyOK, first off, this electric gun costs 40 dollars and uses .12g bbs. that in mind, read the rest...
OK i must say, this gun is freakin' incredible. with 155fps, using .12, you don't expect much. but WOW, why is it soo good? i have a decent backyard, so i use certain markers to indicate range (roughly). i use my UTG m324 (gen 5)as 200 feet and scale downward. this thing actually gets pretty far, about 90 feet before dropping. my uhc 1911 gets about 100-110. keep in mind that it's mostly due to the hop up system, not fps. nothing special on the rof, but like i said, 40 bucks .12 ammo. it's very light too, compared to my spring uhc 1911 (first gun).
the pistol rail interface system WILL !NOT! work with this gun, so if you're planning on buying a dot sight for it (which, you're probably not), don't. GET TWO INSTEAD. dual wielding yo
- Lame...Why can't anyone make a more powerful EBB?! All I'm asking for is 250 fps, same as my spring Glock 17... Is it physically impossible or what? I don't like this gun because it's so weak, you can hardly feel it, but you still have to wear glasses. I might as well play nerf, because this is not an airsoft gun.
- what's the point?!An electric pistol with 16 rounds? the 20 dollar UHC 1911 has more!!! cmon! if you're going to make an electric pistol, give it more rounds! at least 20!
OTHERWISE THIS THING OWNS... if you know how to modify for more mag capacity then buy this and modify... if you don't... forget about it
airsoftguy over and out
P.S. is it ever possible to modify mags?
- A GOOD SIDE ARMThis gun is a good gun for its price, but it is not good on (FPS) so it does not go far, and it is bad with a suppressor. �It is only good for close range. I would get some lube for it; it will help it go further. The gun is weak to so don't take it and hit it at all. I would get .12g BBs so you have more range with it. It also has a 16 round clip on it, so get more clips with it so you never run out, and get the target before you have to reload it. It is also a very loud gun; it will make everyone know were you are so if you go stealthy you might want to use it as a last resort if you are on the run or something like that. I go stealthy so I use a sniper, but I am in more than just one war with a lot of people so I use a AK or a SCAR. The price for this gun is more of a under-price for it. It is a good gun if you are a good shot. I would get a riot shield with it so you don't get shot a lot, but I would get a MAC 10 with gas and a 50 RD clip or a SCAR H electric, all of which are under real names so if you play COD or far cry 2 you should know what i am talking about. It also takes 4 AAA batteries.
fast shooting/price/blow back/full ADO for a pistil is good/no chalking at all
2 clips
clip so not big so get extra or take good shots with it/ breaks easy so be good to it/ 16 round clip( comes with two)
Good gun. I highly suggest you get it or a gas.

Some 1,700 people filled the gym at Concordia University, and 600 more stood in an overflow room to watch the memorial service for Monica Quan and Keith Lawrence, KNBC reported.
Quan, 28, and Lawrence, 27, were found shot dead in the parking structure of their Irvine condo on Feb. 3, setting off a six-day manhunt for Dorner that ended in a deadly gun battle with police.
Dorner had declared a revenge war on officers and the families of those he blamed for ending his career. Quan's father represented Dorner in his failed appeal of his dismissal.
Randal Quan told mourners that the deaths of his daughter and her fiancé had no rhyme or reason.
"It is not for me or anyone else to question why God has done what he has done," the former police captain said.
Quan and Lawrence met while both were playing basketball at Concordia. Lawrence proposed to Quan days before their deaths.
Randal Quan said that during the couple's courtship, his daughter teased her father by asking him not to check Lawrence's background.
He said he felt safer knowing Lawrence was with his daughter because Lawrence was an officer on the University of Southern California campus.
Dorner also ambushed and killed Riverside police officer Michael Crain and seriously wounded his partner at a traffic light before fleeing to the San Bernardino National Forest.
Jeremiah MacKay, a San Bernardino County sheriff's deputy, was killed on Feb. 12 after a shootout with Dorner, who made his last stand in a cabin in the forest.

GREEN BAY — No one is more keenly aware of the expectations for Tramon Williams than his head coach, Mike McCarthy; his position coach, cornerbacks coach Joe Whitt; or Williams himself.
And as the Green Bay Packers veteran cornerback enters the 2013 season committed to recapturing the 2010 form that put him in the upper echelon of NFL cover men, McCarthy, Whitt and Williams are all convinced that he can be that player once again, despite two somewhat disappointing seasons after suffering nerve damage in his shoulder in a collision in the 2011 regular-season opener.
"Tramon Williams has obviously set a standard of play for himself. And that's really where you want him to get back to," McCarthy said as the offseason organized team activity practices and minicamp wrapped up. "I always remembered when we signed Tramon and how he worked his way up on the practice squad. To me he would be the poster child for someone to come in to an NFL ballclub, particularly our place, you give a young man an opportunity... sitting in the front row, taking notes and just doing the things the right way.
"Yes, he's had a significant injury in the past that he's dealt with. He is truly one of the ultimate professionals on our football team. We just want to get him back play back to the standard that he has set."
That standard set by Williams was that of a shutdown corner. In 20 games (including playoffs) during the Packers' Super Bowl XLV-winning season of 2010, Williams tallied 77 tackles, one sack, an eye-popping nine interceptions (including three in the playoffs) and broke up 31 passes. According to ProFootballFocus.com, Williams played a team-high 1,256 defensive snaps that season and was thrown 123 times. He allowed 56 completions for 690 yards, and quarterbacks had a passer rating of just 42.4 when throwing at him. He gave up four touchdowns that season against nine INTs and missed nine tackles. His most unforgettable play that season was a game-turning interception return for a touchdown in the NFC Divisional Playoff game at Atlanta.
Then came the Sept. 8, 2011 opener against the New Orleans Saints. Inadvertently hit by safety Nick Collins late in the game, Williams suffered nerve damage in his right shoulder that caused him to miss the following week's game at Carolina. When he returned, he struggled with being physical — both at the line of scrimmage, when jamming receivers in man-to-man press coverage, and when tackling receivers after the catch.
Even during the offseason leading up to last season, Williams' shoulder wasn't at full strength. Nonetheless, he had some shutdown moments, like he did in Week 2 against Chicago, when Brandon Marshall caught just two passes for 24 yards after talking a big game in the days leading up to the matchup.
But he also had some ugly moments. One came against the New York Giants on Nov. 25, when he appeared to turn down a tackle on a 59-yard screen pass to Ahmad Bradshaw. Both Williams and Whitt said afterward that Williams misread the play but wasn't afraid to hit Bradshaw. The other came on a 17-yard completion to Minnesota fullback Jerome Felton in the Packers' regular-season ending loss to the Vikings at the Metrodome.
"Tramon played very solid. Now he had some glaringly bad plays," Whitt acknowledged. "I hear people saying, 'Tramon can't play.' They're wrong. They're wrong. They're taking a few glaringly bad plays and saying a man can't play where I'm going to tell you this, there's few guys that I would take over him. I don't know if there's any that I would take over him because when he's allowed to do what he does best, he's pretty good, and that's just what it is."
"And so I know some people are going to say he's protecting his player. No, that's just what it is because after the season I went back and watched every play, over 1,200 plays, the guy can play, and he played physical, too. Let me clear that up too. You go back and watch the games. Now, did he miss the tackle on the fullback from Minnesota? Yeah, but he went up there and hit it. We're going to miss some tackles.
"He's going to play fine this year. He's not what I'm worried about."
Nor is Williams worried about his health. During OTAs he said he is "healthy enough" to be the player he's been in the past.
"I'm feeling better than I've felt in a long time," Williams said. "I've done some stuff in the offseason, got into yoga, and I'm feeling really good. I'm playing really well, feeling confident, the whole nine (yards)."
One thing that could play into Williams' resurgence: Whitt plays on letting his corners play the way they feel most comfortable, giving them some latitude whenever possible to decide for themselves whether to play off coverage or press-man coverage. Now, some defensive calls will require a certain coverage; other times, Whitt said, defensive coordinator Dom Capers will build into his defensive call a coverage that's best for each cover man.
After intercepting only two passes last year — a startlingly low number after his six regular-season picks in 2010 and four in 2011 — Williams believes having the opportunity to play off his man more frequently will lead to more big plays.
"(Whitt) is going to give us freedom to do what we like, what we're good at. In the past year or two, we've done some different things — according to some calls, you have to play a certain way. whatever way is the best way to play, that's how they're going to let us play," Williams said. "For me, it's going to be mixed up. I don't think you can do one thing the whole game and not have the quarterback begin to pick up on you. If you can mix it up, I think you'll definitely have a lot of success."
"My thing is, I had some bad-looking plays last year, but with the exception of me not getting a lot of turnovers, I felt that I played well. If I came down with some of those interceptions, it would be a different story, it would be a different topic, but I only ended up with two interceptions. I had a chance to get more but didn't, but that's the way I feel: If I would have had more, it would have been a different story."

I'd put Tramon a lot higher than #14. With any luck, he is better this year than last because of slowly recovering from the injury. And he was still good enough last year to cover the best the opponents had. I will be VERY disappointed if the Packers dump Tramon Williams for whatever reason.

I get frustrated with CBs when they hold, but Woodson held a lot and he is a great player. Heck all players hold at one point or another in a game. I really don't have any issues with Tramon blowing assignments from what generally see and he has great instincts. I suppose we are all just waiting for him to be the old Tramon again... specifically Atlanta playoff Tramon.

Things have been kind of quiet on the Tramon Williams status.
Is he getting close to coming back?
Will he be coming back?

I'm glad we've got depth at CB. Hopefully Tramon can make a comeback this year. It' will be interesting to see how much our "improved front seven" helps our CBs.

OAKLAND -- Bishop O'Dowd High Principal Pam Shay said Thursday the school's girls basketball team no longer will seek to be included in the California Interscholastic Federation Open Division playoffs and that the Dragons' season officially is over.
"Our goal today ... is not to whine, is not to complain, it's just to say, yep, we screwed up, we're very, very sorry that our season ended this way," Shay said.
After the Dragons were disqualified from the North Coast Section playoffs for playing 27 games, one more than is allowed by the NCS, school officials had initially hoped the team could be included in the CIF Open Division playoffs. The section tournament ends March 8, and the state playoffs begin March 12.
But NCS commissioner Gil Lemmon said Wednesday he could not support O'Dowd's efforts to be included in the Open Division, and a CIF spokesperson reiterated in an email to Bay Area News Group that teams qualify for the state tournament only through their respective section playoffs.
School administrators said Thursday they would not pursue the matter any further, bringing to an end a tumultuous few days for the highly successful program.
Bishop O'Dowd, which had a 23-4 regular-season record this season, is the defending CIF Open Division state champion.
"The mistake happened when I originally made the schedule," Bishop O'Dowd coach Malik McCord said. "This is something I missed. So it started with me. ... I own that. ... My mistake put my girls in a position they didn't need to be in, or deserve to be. And that's what kills me the most because I let my girls down."
Shay said no discipline would be levied by the school on an individual or individuals for the error.
"We need to put closure on this now and move on," she said.
It was an emotional day for the Dragons' three seniors, as the announcement marks the end of their high school basketball careers.
"I have been with this team for four years and my junior year was taken away from me because of a severe ankle injury," senior guard Alex Kalmbach said through tears. "I tried to stay positive and look forward to my senior year. It's very hard to imagine that this is all over and my ... basketball career is over, but I know that next year, this team will win state."
"When we met at the beginning of the season, our long-term goal was state," senior Maya Williams said. "It's just really tough that it's all over a technical mistake, and that we're now suffering for that.
"Our coach always taught us that we rise together and we fall together, so we are going to stay together as a team, no matter what. It is just tough to have it taken away."

Hey Islanders Fans,
How's your day going?? Well hopefully it's going really good! This week was another great week to be an ISLANDER. We had some tough workouts this past week but nothing us Islanders can't handle!
First off I want to tell you guys that my husband bought us a PUPPY for our anniversary!!! He is an English bulldog, he is two months old and his name is SIR BOSTON JONES! I love him so much! He is the cutest thing and he is so friendly! He has one blue eye and one brown eye! I have been spending most of my free time taking care of him because he is like a baby! Anyway, it's all fun so far, being a momma with a puppy isn't too bad! Ha!
According to Coach Flanagan this week, "was a tough week, but we all survived it and did well." There is always room for improvement … that is what our sport is all about … always getting better and striving to be better. We ended our week with a long run yesterday at the beach! It was awesome! And then we took some pictures afterwards. So far our team is getting closer and closer each day. This coming week I'm going to get a mani and pedi with my sister! It's going to be GOBBS OF FUN! Hey guys in case you don't find this interesting it is to the ladies! I'm also thinking of doing something new to my hair, but that will be a surprise!
OH by the way our next meet is at Rice University, this weekend actually, and we will have a lot of competition but hopefully it goes well just like practice has. It's our first time actually staying the night somewhere, so I am sure I will have lots to talk about! I am looking forward to this meet! It's going to be a test to see where we are all at. I am excited to tell you guys all about it.
Most of the girls got to meet Sir Boston this week and he got really excited and they all loved him. We want to buy him a skateboard because we saw videos of English Bulldogs skateboarding. Haha! Anyways, I haven't asked all the girls how their classes are coming along but some that I have talked to have said they seem easy right now but the busy work will eventually add on.
On our run Sunday morning we witnessed a beautiful sunrise, and it got me thinking about how lucky we all are to be able to see the beauties that are brought into this earth, but we can be taken away from that any second. We should live every moment like it was our last, and take chances that we are curious about. So, I'm going to leave you with this one final thought.
Today, I ask that you encourage someone, tell them, "GOOD JOB," or "HAVE A GREAT DAY." Open a door for a stranger! I want you to STEP OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE. Enjoy the life you're living by making someone else's life happy. I enjoy writing these blogs, but I want them to help you, just as much as they have helped me. Do something different, because we Islanders are here to make a difference! So other than that, "keep your Islander pride and don't forget to stride," with yours truly!
Cecy Jones

Japan, 2010, 114 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subjects: Animated, Asian, Cult, Technology/Science, War
Digital presentation - In the award-winning Japanese animated feature Summer Wars, Kenji is a teenage math prodigy recruited by his secret crush Natsuki for the ultimate summer job—passing himself off as Natsuki's boyfriend for four days during her grandmother's 90th birthday celebration. But when Kenji solves a 2,056-digit math riddle sent to his cell phone, he unwittingly breaches the security barricade protecting Oz, a globe-spanning virtual world where millions of people and governments interact through their avatars, handling everything from online shopping and traffic control to national defense and nuclear launch codes. Now a malicious AI program called the Love Machine is hijacking Oz accounts, growing exponentially more powerful and sowing chaos and destruction in its wake. This intriguingly intelligent cyberpunk/sci-fi story is a visual tour-de-force, with the amazing world of Oz as the highlight. Like the Internet as conceived by pop artist Haruki Murakami, Oz is a hallucinatory pixel parade of cool avatar designs, kung fu jackrabbits, toothy bears and a bursting rainbow of colors. Directed by Mamoru Hosoda (The Girl Who Leapt Through Time).

Awards are not something new to Summit Cove Elementary School or its principal, Crystal Miller. This most recent one, however, is a first. Miller has been chosen to receive the Outstanding Administrative Leadership in Reading Award, given by the Colorado Council International Reading Association (CCIRA). It marks the first time that someone from Summit County has won the award.
The staff at Summit Cove nominated Miller for the award in recognition of her dedication to promoting literacy among her students. The purpose of the annual award, according to the CCIRA website, is to recognize an administrator "who has made an outstanding contribution in the area of reading by promoting excellence in the improvement of reading instruction." The first award was given in 1984.
"I was very excited," said Miller of her nomination. She will be presented with the award at the CCIRA state conference in Denver in February. The Summit Cove Elementary library will also be granted $500 for books in recognition of Miller's work.
Literacy is a passion of Miller's, who works hard to promote it throughout her school.
"She has certainly placed a laser-sharp focus on literacy in her building, and she's given her teachers the tools that they need so that all of them are excellent reading teachers," said Summit School District superintendent Heidi Pace.
In addition to supporting teachers, Miller gets personally involved with the students' reading programs. For example, she often goes around to read books with each classroom. When new books are coming in, the students are allowed to vote on the ones they'd like to have in the library, so Miller takes the finalists and reads them to the classroom before the students vote.
"She's great," said Summit Cove media specialist Shelley Wasson, one of the group that nominated Miller for the award. "She has been going into the classrooms and reading stories to the kids. ... She's really promoting reading over here."
"I nominated Crystal because I believe she has strived to increase her understanding of children's literacy needs and has encouraged and supported her staff's understandings of literacy needs," Robin Ackermann, English language acquisition specialist at Summit Cove, stated in an email. "She has used research that shows that children need a variety of books to get hooked on reading and has consistently written grants and sought out means of getting books in the hands of children."
Another personal touch is Miller's dedication to individual students. In particular, she's been spending time with a group of second-grade students going through the level literacy intervention program. When Miller realized the teacher wouldn't have enough time to individually manage the students, Miller stepped in and now reads with them every day. She said she's definitely seen improvement in their reading level, though she is quick to give recognition to the kids, program and teachers.
"We've put a lot of work into the literacy level intervention," Miller said. "The kids are great, they do a good job. (The teachers) help me a ton."
Kristen Abbott's perspective, as both a teacher and a parent, was an important part of the nomination process. Abbott, who teaches kindergarten at Summit Cove, said that Miller pushes the importance of literacy while offering plenty of support.
"She always comes into our classrooms at the beginning of the year and lets the 5-year-olds know 'You'll be reading by Christmas - that's what Mrs. Abbott's job is,'" Abbott said. "Crystal is really involved with training the teachers, keeping the teachers up to date on the current research for best practices for literacy instruction. She makes sure that we have necessary materials and enough books in the classroom. She's been actively writing grants to make sure we have books in the classroom."
Abbott's daughter is also one of the students in Miller's second-grade reading group. She has special needs due to her cerebral palsy, but Abbott said she has seen improvement in her daughter's reading ability, which she attributes to Miller's work.
"My daughter loves reading, so I'm lucky that way," Abbott said. "They are getting double doses of reading every day."
Though it's a lot of work, Miller feels that it's completely worth it to pay so much attention to students' literacy levels.
"We really have to make that a huge priority, that everybody has to read," Miller said. "If you can read you can do a lot of other stuff. ... We need to do a good job just to teach kids to get what they can out of it. It's a great skill."
Miller and Wasson are looking forward to the additions that the $500 will bring to their library. They haven't formed a plan yet, but there will definitely be more books around.
"We never have a shortage," said Miller.
Pace and the rest of the district are pleased to see Miller receiving recognition for her efforts.
"It's a wonderful way to honor the hard work that she's been doing," Pace said. "She's well-deserving of this award."

ARTICLE: How ESPN's 'Let Them Wear Towels' Could Influence Women Who Want To Write About Sports
A personal take on ESPN's Nine for IX documentary "Let Them Wear Towels", exploring how the film can inspire young women interested in sports journalism.
SCREENING: Bridegroom
Winner of the Audience Award at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival, Bridegroom is a documentary directed by Linda Bloodworth-Thomason that tells the emotional journey of Shane and Tom, two young men in a loving and committed relationship — a relationship that was cut tragically short by a misstep off the side of a roof. The story of what happened after this accidental death– of how people without the legal protections of marriage can find themselves completely shut out and ostracized– is poignant, enraging and opens a window onto the issue of marriage equality like no speech or lecture ever will.
SCREENING: "Venus Vs" and "Let Them Wear Towels"
To commemorate the 40th anniversary of the passage of Title IX and the continuing struggles that women face for equality, ESPN Films and espnW have created the Nine for IX film series, which will air on ESPN this summer. The two films being screened – "Venus Vs." and "Let Them Wear Towels" – explore the struggle for workplace equality for women through the lens of two remarkable stories from the world of sports.
SCREENING: 'A Grand Threat' and 'Watershed'
The Center for American Progress's Reel Progress film series and the DC Environmental Film Festival are excited to present a special double-feature screening of the short film "A Grand Threat" and the documentary "Watershed: Exploring a New Water Ethic for the New West."

The Center for American Progress's Reel Progress film series screened of Beasts of the Southern Wild, followed by a panel discussion with the film's Oscar-nominated director/writer, producers, and breakout star.
SCREENING: Electoral Dysfunction
Electoral Dysfunction, a feature-length documentary created by a team of award-winning filmmakers, uses humor and wit to take an irreverent—but nonpartisan—look at voting in America.The film stars the brilliant political humorist Mo Rocca, a correspondent for CBS Sunday Morning, a panelist on NPR's hit quiz show Wait, Wait ... Don't Tell Me!, and a former correspondent for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.
SCREENING: Hunger Hits Home
America has a problem – one in five of our children struggles with hunger. It's not something we like to talk about, but childhood hunger is a crisis, right here at home.
SCREENING: Love Free or Die
"Love Free or Die" is about a man whose two defining passions are in direct conflict: his love for God and for his partner Mark. Gene Robinson is the first openly gay person to become a bishop in the historic traditions of Christendom. His consecration in 2003, to which he wore a bullet-proof vest, caused an international stir, and he has lived with death threats every day since.
SCREENING: A Better Life
Join award-winning director Chris Weitz and star actor Demian Bichir in a special screening of A Better Life, a heart breaking tale of the lives of today's immigrants.
SCREENING: Tony & Janina's American Wedding
After 18 years in America, Tony and Janina Wasilewski's family is torn apart when Janina is deported back to Poland, taking their 6-year-old son Brian with her. Set on the backdrop of Chicago, and featuring Illinois Congressman Luis Gutierrez , a leading champion of immigration reform, this film follows the Wasilewski's three-year struggle to be reunited.
The Flaw
Made by international award-winning documentary maker David Sington, "The Flaw" tells the story of the credit bubble that caused the financial crash.
La Americana
"La Americana" is an intimate documentary following Carmen, an undocumented immigrant, on a journey from Bolivia to New York City and back as she struggles to save the life of her ailing daughter. Her unforgettable story is woven into the current immigration crisis in the United States, putting a human face on this timely and controversial issue.
No Impact Man
Author Colin Beavan, in research for his next book, began the No Impact Project in November 2006. A newly self-proclaimed environmentalist who could no long avoid pointing the finger at himself, Colin leaves behind his liberal complacency for a vow to make as little environmental impact as possible for one year.
Money-Driven Medicine
Money-Driven Medicine provides the essential introduction Americans need if they are to become knowledgeable participants in healthcare reform. Produced by Academy Award-winner Alex Gibney (Taxi to the Dark Side; Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room) and based on Maggie Mahar's acclaimed book by the same name, the film offers a behind-the-scenes look at the $2.6 trillion U.S. healthcare system, how it went so terribly wrong and what it will take to fix it.
The Least of These
"The Least of These" explores one of the most controversial aspects of American immigration policy: family detention.

No basket pulling. We'd never get them back in until thaw time. Some sleeves hold water. The park will have sign by the gate.
Some pieces of leftover scrap pole material from your basket projects could be used as placeholders to keep the sleeves serviceable while the baskets are pulled?

So for anyone that has read any of my other posts, I'm a 28 year old guy that just started running about 3 months ago. After the first few weeks of running, I decided to join a few 5k races around where I live. So far I've run four of them, with my finishing times listed below:
9/8/12 - 27:27
9/22/12 - 24:14
10/20/12 - 22:55
11/3/12 - 23:16
Although I'm training for a half marathon in April of next year, I still enjoy running the 5k as a different type of challenge. In between doing long runs, I've been doing some interval runs as well.
My ultimate goal is to do a 5k under 20 minutes, and the last couple of races, I've gotten around 23 minutes as you can see. My question is this - how long should I expect it to take to get my time down from around 23 minutes to 20 minutes? Now I know it's a tall order, and I also know that I've only been running for 3 months. I'm actually very happy to already be running it in 23 minutes, but I was curious how long it might take to drop down to 20 minutes. For anyone that runs it under 20 minutes - how long did it take you and can you offer any advice as to what I need to do to acheive it? What, if anything should I change in my training? Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
Hill repeats, intervals and tempo runs are probably your best investment for increasing speed. Of course, when you are increasing the long run schedule to prepare for the half, that will also be of benefit. Cross-training with maybe some strength exercises might be of assistance.
It sounds like you are improving very well with finishing times, but also be prepared that there is probably an area where you will stabilize in a similiar range for the 5k and then have to work with additional efforts to slowly improve.
The WAVA rating calculator may help with some age predictions and estimates.
Congrats on all your efforts and best wishes!
I'm not a speed guy, but the guys that I talk to that toe the front of the 5K starting line all tell me that it is about 3 things:
1) intervals,
2) hills, and
3) making sure that you are loose and ready to run on race day.
I'm told that #3 is the important part (assuming that they've done 1 & 2) because there is no relief and no letting up in a 5K. When the gun goes off their legs have to be 100% ready to run hard. A couple of the guys run a modest negative split (just barely), but they tell me that it is only because as soon as they get to that last mile that are running as hard as they can and still make it to the finish line. They each have their own pre-race routines to get their legs ready to go and they seem to have to time it just right (can't let their legs get cold or stiff and so on....)
Go get 'em...!
6/17/2012 AA HM 2:09:01 (I shouldn't have run this one this soon after the DexAA HM)
6/3/2012 DexAA HM 2:00:31
3/11/2012 St Pat's 5K 0:25:42
10/9/2011 Chicago Marathon 4:49:55
9/3/2011 Milford 30K DNF (cramped out at 14m)
6/25/2011 Solstice 10M 1:27:15
6/5/2011 DexAA HM 1:58:53
10/17/2010 Detroit HM 2:06:19
6/6/2010 Dex-AA HM 2:09:30
Your weight is an extremely important factor in your running times. You want to be on the light side. Every additional pound costs you 2 seconds per mile, as a rule of thumb. So if you are 10 pounds heavier than you should be, you are running slower in your 5Ks by 10 x 2 x 3.1 = 62 seconds.
Dark Horse
I'm a dark horse, running on a dark race course.
Thank you all for your input and advice! I've actually started to change my training slightly, including adding a "hill" workout once a week (and by hill, I mean increasing the degree of incline on my treadmill), stretching more before and after my workouts, and getting my legs looser right before racing. I've actually ran 2 more 5k races, and below are my times:
11/24/12 - 22:35

It's a slow progression, but I feel like I'm getting there. I'm actually running another 5k race this Saturday, and I'm hoping I can break 22 minutes, or get very close to. I've also been increasing my long runs, and even ran 8 miles for the first time a few days ago. I'm hoping that will help with endurance, as the last mile has been a positive split time for me (I run the first 2 miles in 7 minutes each, with the last mile around 7:30). No matter what though, I'm really enjoying the journey, which is the main thing anyway!

While every hit to the head or borderline shot is looked at endlessly on tape, the seriousness of hitting from behind is being forgotten.
"It's equal to all situations that happen on the ice; you don't make something more important or less important." – NHL linesman Brad Lazarowich.

The Vancouver Canucks upgraded parts of the roster in the summer and the work they did on the third forward unit will have the greatest impact on their fortunes.
With a Hart Trophy winner, his identical twin, a Selke finalist and a perennial Vezina candidate already in the lineup, the Vancouver Canucks' main goal in the off-season was to bulk up a third line that on many nights was outworked and overmatched in 2009-10 – especially when they met the Chicago Blackhawks in the post-season.

Detroit's Pavel Datsyuk talks about his unlikely fight with Anaheim's Corey Perry and what his plan was for the tussle.
Always expect the unexpected. Even if you live by that motto, there was still no way of predicting a Corey Perry-Pavel Datsyuk fight in the third period Friday night with Detroit holding a 4-0 lead.

While it may not always be easy to hear of your favorite team sending a prized prospect to the AHL, it's a good sign for the organization.
While final NHL roster decisions give you an idea of where each player stands in the organization, they also tell you just where the organization itself stands in the grand scheme of player, and team, development.

Whether they realize it or not, in the end belligerent parents can have a negative long-term impact on their kid's minor sports life.
It's really simple, but apparently a concept some parents just can't comprehend. Minor sports – and on THN.com, we're talking minor hockey – are for kids to enjoy and not for parents to interfere in and, consequently, ruin.

A Q&A with the third-year NHL bench boss discussing Nino Niederreiter, the Isles' goaltending and expectations for the upcoming season.
The rebuilding New York Islanders are preparing for Year 3 under coach Scott Gordon. The team saw an improvement of eight wins and 18 points from 2008-09 to 2009-10 and as the kids get more experienced there is good reason for optimism.

The all-time goal scoring great reflects on the emotional outburst from 1972 that helped turn the tide in favor of Canada.
When you think of great sports speeches, there are a few that have become etched in history. Lou Gehrig's "luckiest man on the face of this earth" speech stands out in baseball; and Muhammad Ali's many "I am the greatest" declarations defined a boxing era.

Every year the threats of big names being lured away grow larger, but again and again those threats fall short.
If the Kontinental League is to fulfil its goal of being on the same ground as the NHL, it's got a long way to go yet. Here we sit on Aug.

No Swedish players went in Round 1, but there were some strong choices on Day 2... and the quirkiness of Kirill Kabanov continues.
LOS ANGELES – In the 2009 draft, seven elite players were taken from Sweden in the opening round: Victor Hedman, Oliver Ekman-Larsson, Magnus Paajarvi-Svensson, David Rundblad, Jacob Josefson, Tim Erixon and Marcus Johansson.

It was an entertaining night in Las Vegas that saw many new winners, but also one very familiar one.
LAS VEGAS – In what was one of the most – perhaps the most – entertaining NHL Awards Show yet (how great was that Ryan Getzlaf-Bobby Ryan skit?) there were few surprises, but more than a few new faces.

There were a few unexpected deals Saturday, headlined by pending UFA defenseman Dan Hamhuis to the Flyers.
It was a surprisingly busy Saturday for the Nashville Predators, trading out pending UFA defenseman Dan Hamhuis and captain Jason Arnott in two separate deals.
