For you when you can't see how beautiful you are. For you when you don't know how much you mean. For you when you can't recognize your value. For you when you need a reminder. I made this for you.
Thank you so much to TD Music and Warner for making my crazy vision such a stunning reality.
What's in a name?
So when it comes to naming a human…. Oh boy.
I have named stuff… Cars. Pets. Stuffed animals and toys. I have named songs and albums. But never have I ever named a human. The task felt daunting.
A few months ago a name popped into my head. It was sort of a strange name, but not overly strange, but still a little strange. I didn't think Mingo would ever think twice about it, so I kept it to myself.
A few days later, as Mingo and I were out walking in the setting summer sun, he quietly said, "There's been a name in my head."
"Oh"? I asked, inviting him to go on. He didn't. "What is it?" I prompted.
He hesitated. "Well… It's… River."
I stopped walking. I told him that just a few days ago I had thought the same name. We put it on our short list. My huge belly felt like it was about to burst.
My waters broke in my sleep. A furious rush of clear water. Over 12 hours later, after a complicated birth, our baby son came into this world. He was big. And strong. And the most beautiful, sweet, incredible, best thing. Ever. Soft like the night sky, pink like a sunrise. Moving and flowing and calm and deep and restless like a River.
But I still wasn't sure.
Over the next few days Mingo and I tried a few names on him, sort of the way you try different pants on. Some fit alright, some were a little too baggy, some too short.
The nurses and Doctors had started calling him baby Mingo. Every time they came in our room they asked about his name.
"Does he have a name yet?"
"We're working on it," We would say.
I needed to ask him.
I looked down and stroked his rose petal soft cheek and asked him as he rested in my arms, "Is your name Lennox (an old family name)?"
No response.
"Is your name Aubrey (Jason's grandfather's name)?"
No response.
"Is your name Jackson?"
A little frown. Way off.
"River? Is your name River?"
And there it was. A tiny smile.
"River? Are you sure?"
No response. He was passed out.
"I think his name is River," Mingo said a few days later. "I really think it is."
"I think you're right," I responded. I still wasn't totally sure in my heart. But I trust Mingo. And I trust my baby son. So we named him River.
The birth was complicated. I had to be readmitted to the hospital after going home for an infection and might need more surgery. I have never been through so much. My body aches. I am beyond tired. I can't walk. And I'm bursting with love for my new family. Through it all, River has been my salvation.
I realized that so many of my favourite songs are about Rivers. The cleansing, healing, power of them. Steadfast and moving. An escape route, a pathway to a new life.
Here is a little play list of a few of those songs. From my little River's ears to yours.
Seven months ago something in me changed. I started to feel... weird… sick. All the time. The taste of things changed. Smells changed. The way I felt changed.
I went to see my doctor. Mingo came with me just in case something was seriously wrong. I had been throwing up a lot. We weren't sure what was going on.
My doctor ordered some blood work and told me to come back the next week. We returned seven days later. Her back was to me, bent over a file folder with a sheet of paper covered in numbers when she told me I was pregnant. Mingo blinked at me and I stared back at him. Our faces matched. Eyes wide. Mouth slightly open, our breath being taken away.
I felt… Wonder. Hope. Fear. Sick.
And then trepidation. Anxiety. So sick. What about the album? It was just coming out… How could I work it? How could I tour it? How could I employ Mingo and myself while feeling so, so sick. What would we live on? What would my hard working label peeps say? What would my fans think when I wasn't out working? What would my dear A&R guy say? We had worked so hard to create this album… How could I work when I could barely stand at times. Would it all be for nothing? What was going to happen? How was the rest of my life going to change??
I wanted to be only thrilled and happy and excited to be creating a family with Mingo. I tried. And a big part of me was. But I was sick. A lot. I kept my secret, not ready to talk about it with anyone but Mingo, not wanting anyone to think I didn't care about my career. A three week promotional tour was coming up. No big deal… Right? I could pretend…
We did our best to get through the tour. Mingo watched me continuously. He helped make sure I ate enough nutritious food and took my vitamins. He tucked me into bed every night by seven. But by the end of the tour I was so exhausted. The night before we were supposed to fly home I couldn't stop being sick. I threw up 12 times through the night, every half hour, before Mingo took me to the emergency room. I fainted while waiting to be seen.
The kind nurses and doctors took me in right away, hooked me up to an IV, put me in a private room and gave me anti nausea meds. They ordered an ultra sound immediately. Tears rolled down my face and collected in my hair as I lay on my back, looking at the fuzzy picture of our little one moving arms, legs, tiny heart thumping inside me, totally oblivious to the physical pain I was going through. Relief washed over me and I realized for the first time just how much I loved that little person. I was so glad at least one of us was okay.
We had to delay our flight till I could be well enough to make it through a flight home. Mingo called the label to tell them about our situation and ask them to change our flight. I was so nervous for them to find out. But they congratulated me. They told me the timing of things would just have to change surrounding the release, but that they were behind me. We would move forward with the first single and then reassess. Still sick. Still worried. But some relief.
Mingo and I finally slept.
We flew home for a short break, which I spent in bed, and went back on the road to do press. People promised my nausea would abate. But it didn't. A constant reminder of the fact that I was no longer the only one living in my body. I did my best. We met with great radio people and did some sweet TV appearances including the ones on Marilyn Denis and Canada AM. I was grateful for every opportunity. And so, so sick.
I came home and stayed in bed for a few months.
I started to feel… a little better? I started getting up and going for walks, Mingo with me every step of the way. Then one day I got really light headed and almost passed out again. Another blood test revealed critically low iron. All the throwing up meant that I had not been absorbing my vitamins and my little 'room mate' had gotten all our iron.
A few iron transfusions later (that's where they take pure iron and pump it into your veins. I like to think I'm Iron Woman now!) and I am starting to feel slightly more human.
I have just over two more months to go, and then the real work begins. Our second single, Mirror, comes out. I hope we can work this record and give it the exposure I think it really deserves. Oh, and Mingo and I will have an extra band member who will be our bandmate forever now.
Shamefully I have to admit that I had no idea how hard creating human life is. I really didn't. I know it's different for everyone, but I just want you to know that you took effort to make. You took energy and blood and tears and sweat and iron and pain and joy to create. Every one of us did. Your life has more value than any jewel or treasured metal this earth could offer. Please don't forget that. Ever. It's really important.
Hopefully I'll be seeing you soon… In the meantime, keep playing my music. Stay connected. I have missed you for the past Seven Months.

�I hope people feel amazing when they listen to Have A Heart. I hope they love it. I hope they find themselves in it. Music is about connecting, and I want to connect with millions of people.� � Meaghan Smith.
Meaghan Smith was coming off her 2011 Juno Award win for Best New Artist. It was for her critically acclaimed album The Cricket�s Orchestra, which had been lauded for its honest, insightful songwriting and vintage sound. Despite all this, Meaghan wanted to take a chance. She knew that she wanted to make an entirely different album; a pop record with big choruses and ambitious production � it was the best way for her to connect with more people than she ever had in the past. This meant moving outside of her comfort zone and working with new collaborators on songwriting and production. This was not going to be easy. Meaghan�s recent attempts at working with co-writers hadn�t been productive, so she wasn�t optimistic that someone else would be able to help her capture what was in her soul and turn it into big, lush pop songs.
Even with these concerns Meaghan knew she needed to try something new. Working with her musical partner and husband Jason Mingo she spent months searching out different producers and co-writers, trying to find just the right sound for the music she heard in her head. She travelled around the world, spending time in London, Amsterdam and New York and LA. In London, she worked with Ash Howes (Ellie Goulding, One Direction) to lay the foundation for three songs that would eventually make the album, but she ultimately ended up in Toronto to write and record the album with Jason Mingo and Warner Music Canada�s head of A&R, Ron Lopata.
�I wasn�t sure about working with my husband and an A&R guy. I have all the faith in the world in them both, but you have to admit it's an unexpected team of collaborators, at least it was for me. But it just worked so well. Both Ron and Mingo get me, as co-writers and as producers,� says Meaghan. �They understand that I need to express my own deepest feelings in my lyrics. Mingo brings patience and attention to detail to the mix. He spent hours programming drums, creating vocal effects, editing tracks, laying down guitar parts and other instrumentation. Together he and Ron came up with amazing chords that I found inspiring and exciting to write on. Ron can play anything on a keyboard and is a master of hooks. He is also incredibly determined, not giving up on my ideas till we had found the exact sounds we were looking for.�
As she has in the past, Meaghan drew upon her own life experiences when writing this album, with her relationships taking centre stage. The result is Have a Heart, an album full of honest, personal songs that sound contemporary, yet retain a hint of Meaghan�s love of all things vintage.
Have a Heart maintains Meaghan�s romanticism and envelops it in a unique pop production. One standout track, �Mirror� is a powerful love song which speaks to the beauty that exists within us all, even when we can�t see it ourselves. �I wrote that song in a night. I just started thinking about all my friends who go through times when they honestly don�t know how wonderful they are. I just think everybody has those moments when they need to hear that they are amazing and inspiring.�
For many, the most noticeable change in Meaghan�s sound will be heard on the first single. �Have a Heart� hits on a classic Meaghan Smith theme with the lyric �Love can be sweet but it might fall apart, but you'll only feel the beat if you have a heart.� Of the song, Meaghan says �To me it means to be brave � to feel things. You�ll only be a part of life if you take chances. Go for that thing that you really want. It�s terrifying, but that�s how to live.�
That sentiment is something Meaghan brought into her own life when making the album. �Have a Heart is about taking a giant risk. That�s what I�m doing with this album. It�s such a drastic change. My heart beats faster every time I think about it, but that's how I know I'm alive. Forget the net. Just jump and see what happens.�

Social Media Strategy:
Any marketing consultant will tell you that social media is the marketing of the future (as well as the now). However, figuring out the details of the various platforms can be frustrating. You know you need Facebook fans, but how do you get them? Can you do anything except broadcast messages with Twitter? Is this Pinterest thing a phase?
Doing social media in-house seems like an easy way out, but can be tricky in practice. Many brands leave it to the marketing people, who aren't necessarily trained to get the most out of the various social media platforms. Some brands let interns do it, which can put a hastily designed message out front and center for all to see and comment on.
This package will help you develop a plan to get your social media marketing right 100% of the time. We'll start with a consulting session where we take a look at the various platforms that you're using, and come up with a coherent strategy to take advantage of them. Then, we'll come up with some concrete goals. A month later, we'll have another session to modify your existing goals or create new ones so you can move forward.
The Social Media Strategy Package:
• Two consulting sessions full of strategy and solutions for your brand.
• Concrete goals.
• Feedback to make sure that your social media strategy stays up to date.
To inquire about rates and reservations, please email email@example.com.
Take a look at what a couple of my current clients had to say about their Social Media Strategy Sessions–

Creepy Works
Don't know what I am going to do with all these but I will figure something out. Went to Big Lots and their pool noodles were on clearance for 37 cents each. Grabbed the couple boxes they had. Then went to Walmart for something else and they had a whole pallet full with $1.88 still on them. I asked about any sale prices on the noodles since summer is now officially over. Didn't hardly have to show them my receipt from Big Lots and they matched the 37 cents price. From what I gather they were glad to get rid of them so they wouldn't be falling all over the place.

you can probably delete the usb things in the device manager and restart.

But if I were you, I whould first try to install the generic one again

Cadmium Toxicity
(Cadmium Poisoning)
Definition | Causes | Risk Factors | Symptoms | Diagnosis | Treatment | Prevention
Cadmium toxicity occurs when a person breathes in high levels of cadmium from the air, or eats food or drinks water containing high levels of cadmium. Cadmium is a naturally occurring metal. It is usually present in the environment as a mineral combined with other elements like oxygen, chlorine, or sulfur. Either short-term or long-term exposure to cadmium can cause serious health problems. If you suspect you have been exposed to cadmium, contact your doctor right away.
Most cadmium used in the United States is a byproduct of the productions of metals such as zinc, lead, and copper. It is also found in the following products:
- Cigarettes
- Batteries
- Pigments
- Metal coatings
- Plastics
- Some metal alloys
- Fertilizers
When cadmium enters the air, it binds to small particles. It falls to the ground or water as rain or snow, and may contaminate fish, plants, and animals. Improper waste disposal and spills at hazardous waste sites may cause cadmium to leak into nearby water and soil.
Having skin contact with cadmium is not known to cause health problems, but the following exposures to cadmium can cause serious health problems:
- Breathing air that contains high levels of cadmium
- Eating food containing high levels of cadmium, such as shellfish, liver, kidney, potatoes, and leafy vegetables
- Drinking water contaminated with cadmium
- Breathing in cigarette smoke, which doubles the average daily intake of cadmium
Risk Factors
Anyone can develop cadmium toxicity as a result of cadmium exposure. Factors that increase your chances of being exposed to cadmium include:
- Smoking
- Living near hazardous waste sites or industrial factories that release cadmium into the air
- Working in a metal smelting and/or refining plant
- Working in a plant that produces cadmium products, such as batteries, coatings, plastics, and pigments
- Having a nutritional deficiency in calcium, iron, protein, and/or zinc
Eating food or drinking water contaminated with high levels of cadmium can result in:
- Nausea and vomiting
- Stomach cramps
- Diarrhea
- Kidney damage
- Fragile bones
- Death
Breathing in cadmium can result in:
- Flu-like symptoms, such as body aches, chills, weakness
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal pain
- Shortness of breath
- Swelling of the nose, pharynx, and larynx—with chronic inhalation
Lung Damage from Toxic Inhalation
There is no conclusive evidence that cadmium can cause lung cancer, but, as a precaution, the United States Environmental Protection Agency has classified cadmium as a probable carcinogen in humans.
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Your bodily fluids and tissues may be tested. This can be done with:
- Blood tests
- Urine tests
- Hair or nail analysis
There is no effective treatment for cadmium toxicity. Your treatment will be designed to help manage and relieve your symptoms.
To help reduce your chances of getting cadmium toxicity, take the following steps:
- If you smoke, talk to your doctor about ways to quit. Smoking is the highest source of cadmium intake for most people.
- Identify potential sources of cadmium in and around your home, at work, and where your children play.
- If you maintain a vegetable garden, consider having fertilizers tested for cadmium. Some fertilizers have been found to be high in cadmium, which may then concentrate in your vegetables. Avoid any use of cadmium-containing fungicides near your vegetable gardens.
- Eat a balanced diet that provides enough calcium, iron, protein, and zinc.
- Take inventory of and properly store cadmium-containing products in your home. Keep them out of the reach of children. When in doubt, check the label for cadmium or call the manufacturer to find out if the product contains cadmium.
- Keep nickel-cadmium batteries out of the reach of small children. Find out how to properly dispose of these batteries from your local waste disposal office.
- If you have a water well, have your water tested for cadmium.
- If cadmium is present in your well water, consider using bottled water for drinking or install a water filter that removes cadmium and other metals from drinking water.
- If you work around cadmium, talk to your occupational health and safety officer to find out if you could be bringing cadmium home on your clothing, skin, hair, tools, or other objects.
- Do not allow young children to play in or around hazardous waste sites.

Stanwood High School has found its next head football coach.
Doug Trainor, who spent the past seven seasons as the head coach at Bellingham High School, is taking over the Spartans job, according to Stanwood athletic director Tom Wilfong.
"We're pretty excited," Wilfong said of the hire of Trainor, who he coached with as assistants under Tom Boehme at Stanwood in the early 1990s. "It's a great hire for us to get a coach who's been successful and is energetic and has rebuilt two different programs."
Before taking over Bellingham in 2005, Trainor was the head coach at Ballard. A big reason Trainor wanted to take on the Stanwood job had to do with where he lives.
"In all honesty, I've had my eye on the Stanwood job for quite a while now," Trainor told the Bellingham newspaper. "I was close about three years ago when it was open, but I decided to pull out at the last second because we hadn't accomplished everything we wanted to at Bellingham. I kind of crossed my fingers and hoped that it would come open again, and it did this year."
Trainor lives in Conway in southern Skagit County and his daughter attends elementary school in the Stanwood-Camano School District.
Wilfong said he was looking at 6-7 applicants but only two, Trainor and another applicant, fit his criteria, which included a history of being a head coach.
"We wanted a head coach with experience turning programs around," Wilfong said.
Trainor replaces Aaron Cupp, who resigned in January after three seasons as Stanwood's head coach. The Spartans posted a 2-8 record last fall.
In his seven seasons at Bellingham, Trainor posted a 27-44 record. The Red Raiders were 2-8 this past season.
Stanwood is in its final season as a member of the Class 4A Wesco North. Next fall, the Spartans drop to the 3A level and join the revamped Wesco 3A. They will be members of the Wesco 3A North along with Everett, Marysville Pilchuck, Marysville Getchell and Oak Harbor.

The above picture shows precum as well as Cowper's glands or Bulbourethral glands. The parts of the male reproductive system are labeled.
Question about Precum
sir my problem is when i talk naughty chat with girls or talk on phone naughty and give kiss then from my penis sperms come out and when i watch porns then also sperms come out so please doctor i want to stop this what should i do please help me sir rply sir
mydoctortells reply: Seee picture of precum
What is precum
Precum can be compared to watering of the mouth that happens when hungry person smells aroma of delicious food being cooked and is about to be served. Watering of mouth is compared to precum because as in the hungry person on seeing his favorite sweets or candies there is watering in mouth so too on seeing erotic pictures or talking naughty sex talk or during foreplay.
Precum comes at the beginning of sex. Semen comes at the end of sex.
Precum is watery colorless slightly sticky fluid that oozes out of penis during sexual excitement. Precum is not semen. People often get scared due to the wrong belief that semen has come out.
Purpose of precum
Nature has designed the discharge of precum to act as lubricant. Pre-cum also acts as acid neutralizer. In both male and female watery discharge starts at the time of sexual arousal.
Why Precum
- Sex means friction. What a smart way God has designed this lubricating fluid precum.
- Acidity of urine is not suitable for sperms. Precum as though washes away and neutralizes this acidity. Precum also helps in neutralizing the acidity of vagina.
- Precum has a role in coagulation of semen.
Names of precum
Precum is also called as pre ejaculatory fluid or pre ejaculate or pre seminal fluid or Cowper's fluid.
Source of precum
Cowper's gland (see in the picture above) secrete watery fluid. Bulbo urethral glands (Cowper's glands), glands of littre release this watery fluid. Precum is lubricant as well as acid neutralizer. Preejaculatory fluid is also called precum or pre ejaculate. This is not semen.
Amount of Precum
Some men may not produce precum. Some men may produce up to 5 ml of precum. Typically the underwear gets a wet patch because of precum.
Pre-cum, HIV/STI and pregnancy
Precum has been found to contain HIV Human Immunodeficiency Virus that causes AIDS Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome.
It was believed that precum also may contain sperms. Hence, it was said that contact of precum with vagina or nearby may cause pregnancy. However, there are some studies that show that precum does not contain sperms. Not only that, but the studies also show that withdrawl method or coitus interruptus of family planning is as effective as condom in preventing pregnancy.
If you have questions you can ask doctor.

Question Everything: What do bloggers do on weekends ?
By Ray on October 28, 2005 - 5:55pm
What do bloggers do on weekends? Where do they go?
Are a lot of our bloggers doing their blogging during
the week, when they perhaps ought to be doing their
homework? Is that why some of them can't spell or have
no idea about how to tell a story?
During the weekday evenings, I've noticed that up to
four hundred visitors may be surfing the site, and
a good average is about 120 to 140. On weekends, though,
this seems to drop off considerably. Is blogging just
a week-night thing? Something to keep yourself entertained
until the weekend rolls around, and the serious fun begins?
So, where are all the bloggers on weekends? Are they
doing all that on the boss's computer from work, or
what? If they are, then this defeats the purpose of it.
Blogs are supposed to be something more than an idle
pastime between work assignments, or homework sessions.
It also helps if you have something interesting to say,
and tell us about it entertainingly. You could start
right about now....

PARKERSBURG - West Virginia University at Parkersburg has received a nearly $1 million trust for scholarships from a former college president.
Eldon Miller passed away May 31, 2013, at age 77. He was WVU-P's longest-serving president from 1982 to 2000. He worked in higher education for more than 30 years and founded the Community Colleges of Appalachia Association.
The college recently learned Miller bequeathed a trust of almost $1 million to the college which will be used for students scholarships. Miller asked that the scholarships be administered through the West Virginia University at Parkersburg Foundation.

West Virginia University at Parkersburg Board Chairman Gerard El Chaar and president Marie Foster Gnage; and WVU-P Foundation Board chair Robert Wright and executive director Senta Goudy stand with a portrait of former college president Eldon Miller.
"For a community college president to leave this large of a gift is unprecedented," said Senta Goudy, executive director for the foundation. "Mr. Miller's decision to include us in estate planning will have a tremendous impact on the futures of hundreds of students."
Prior to working at WVU-P, Miller served as an academic dean at the Dallas Community College District, executive level administrator at the Community College of Denver, associate professor at the University of Colorado at Boulder and director of the Higher Educational Management Institute at the American Association of Community and Junior Colleges in Washington, D.C.
Upon his retirement from the college in 2000 he said, "My 18-year association with WVU-P and the Wood County community has been one of the most significant parts of my career and life. I have immensely enjoyed being a part of this campus community and contributing to the institution's evolving maturity."
"We are so very grateful for this generous gift. Eldon loved this college so much and remained involved for more than a decade after he left," said WVU-P President Marie Foster Gnage. "It is so inspiring to see this level of dedication to the mission of community colleges."
In 2009, WVU-P constructed a student plaza on its main campus and named it the Miller Plaza. The plaza includes a clock tower and memory garden with named bricks to honor and remember those who have contributed to the college.
Bricks are available for purchase through the WVU-P Foundation office by calling 1-304-424-8340.

Papers are to be filed this week in an attempt to legally force the Earthquake Commission to pay its outstanding bills to tradespeople.
There's growing unrest from contractors and builders saying EQC isn't stumping up for some quake repair work that goes back to September.
Amalgamated Workers Union spokesman Calvin Fisher says there have been ridiculous delays.
He says they'll be seeking summary judgement in civil proceedings this week on about 10 invoices from a dozen or so contractors.
"We're talking close to $3 million outstanding from the employers we've spoken to and there's more so well be setting up a webpage this week and pushing the issue because a lot of people are really struggling," he told Newstalk ZB.
Calvin Fisher says people did the emergency work directly for quake-affected residents, because EQC gave the undertaking it would pay.

The Skinny: Islanders 5, Devils 1
Game 14
Isles 5, Devils 1
John Tavares recorded his fourth career hat trick and Evgeni Nabokov made 30 saves as the Islanders broke open a scoreless game with five goals in the final 23:14 to defeat the New Jersey Devils 5-1 before 15,488 at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum. Both Tavares and Matt Moulson finished the night with four points.
The Scoring:

2nd Period
16:46 NYI J. Tavares (9) Wrist - ASST: B. Boyes (7) AND M. Moulson (8) 1 - 0 NYI
18:09 NYI PPG - J. Tavares (10) Wrist - ASST: M. Moulson (9) AND L. Visnovsky (4) 2 - 0 NYI
19:06 NYI PPG - M. Moulson (7) Wrist - ASST: B. Boyes (8) AND J. Tavares (9) 3 - 0 NYI

14:45 NYI PPG - J. Tavares (11) Wrist - ASST: M. Streit (4) AND M. Moulson (10) 4 - 1 NYI
19:25 NYI M. Grabner (6) Deflected - ASST: K. Aucoin (2) AND T. Hamonic (5) 5 - 1 NYI
The Skinny: John Tavares now has seven points this season against the Devils (5-2-7) … Tavares scored for a career-best fifth straight game (matching the NHL-high for this season); he now has 11 goals in the last 10 games … The Isles improve to 4-4-0 in the division; the Devils are 7-2-1 … The Isles allowed only one goal for the second time this season ... Lubomir Visnovsky has been on-ice for 11 of the Isles' 14 goals in his four games with the team … Ilya Kovalchuk extended his point streak to six games (3-7-10) with an assist on the lone Devils goal. It was his 800th NHL point (144th player in NHL history to reach that mark) … Tavares joins Thomas Vanek and James Neal as the only players in the NHL with 11 goals … #91 is also the sixth player in the league to reach 20 points … The Isles have outscored the opposition 21-11 in the second period this season; New Jersey had allowed only seven goals in the second period before tonight.
The Penalty Shot
Ullstrom's attempt was the second for the Islanders this season. The Isles have failed on 16 of their last 17 regular season home ice penalty shots, dating back to a goal by Tim Connolly on 3/21/00. Michael Grabner scored in last season's finale for the only success in that span. (Shawn Bates connected in a 2002 playoff game; 15 of the 16 regular season failures have occurred since then).
It was the 53rd penalty shot in Islander regular season history; they have scored only 14 times (26%). Four of those attempts have come against New Jersey. Four different Islander shooters have faced the Devils; all have been stopped, including Michael Grabner against Johan Hedberg last season.
Attacking the Record Book
Tavares started the night tied for 32nd on the Isles' goal-scoring list. By the time the game ended, he had passed Travis Green, Garry Howatt, Greg Gilbert and Randy Wood, as he tied Mikko Makela and David Volek for 27th place.
Toss the Hats
Tavares ties a career-high with three goals as he records his fourth career hat trick. Tavares is the first Islander since Jason Blake (5) to record at least four career hat tricks.
Tavares Hat List:
• October 23, 2010 at Florida
• January 15, 2011 vs. Buffalo
• October 15, 2011 vs. Rangers
• February 16, 2013 vs. New Jersey
The Isles are 3-1-0 in games when Tavares records a hat trick (3-0-0 at home). It's the 171st hat trick in Isles history and the 14th the Isles have scored against the Devils franchise.
As Seen on MSG+
Most Points, NHL, last two seasons:
1. Malkin 126
2. Stamkos 118
3. Tavares 101
4. Giroux 101
5. Kovalchuk 98
Four on the Floor:
Tavares (3-1-4) and Moulson (1-3-4) each recorded four point games. It was Tavares' sixth and Moulson's second career four-point game. They are the first Islander teammates to have four-point games in the same game since Ryan Smyth and Mike Sillinger did so on March 17, 2007 at Florida.
The Shots:
Isles 9-14-10=33
Devils 15-5-11=31
Home and Road
The Islanders are 6-7-1 overall, 2-5-0 at home and 4-2-1 on the road.
The Devils are 9-3-3 overall, 6-1-1 at home and 3-2-2 on the road.
In the Nets
Evgeni Nabokov made 30 saves as he improves to 6-5-1 on the season and 4-8-0 against the Devils. Zidlicky's power play goal kept Nabokov from his 53rd career shutout.
Johan Hedberg made 28 saves, but suffers his first regulation defeat of the season (2-1-1). Hedberg is 10-7-2 in his career against the Isles.
Power Plays
The Isles went 3-for-6 on the power play while the Devils were 1-for-5. After starting the season 2-for-28 (7.1%) on the power play at home, the Isles have converted on 7-of-11 chances (63.6%) over the last two home games. It's the first time since October 23-26, 1993 that the Isles have scored at least three power play goals in consecutive home games.
The Isles are 7-21 on the power play vs. New Jersey this season, including two games in which they have converted three times on the power play. It's the first time since the 1992-93 season (three times vs Philadelphia) that the Isles have had multiple games against the same opponent that they have scored at least three PP goals.
The Devils PK has allowed seven goals to the Isles, but has killed 42-of-49 against the rest of the NHL.
The Isles have connected for at least three power play goals three times this season; it's the first time since 2007-08 (four times) that they have done so at least three times in one season. Their 16 PP goals in the first 14 games matches their most since 1997-98.
Better Thirds
After allowing goals in a club-record 21 consecutive third periods (over two seasons), the Isles shut out the opponent for the second straight third period.
They Said It
Butch Goring, just before the Isles took over the game in the second period: This has been a very tough physical game…let's see if the Devils continue to have the energy, have the legs."
They Tweeted It
@SA3886 "Back home from Coli, Pretty sure @91Tavares does not breathe the same air we all breathe. He may very possibly be an alien. #Isles, #Unreal"
@stephamodeo "Thank you @grabs40 for stopping to sign my jersey tonight! made waiting in the cold not so bad! #Isles"
@Real_ESPNLeBrun: Few players I enjoy watching more these days than John Tavares
The Coach
(On Martin, Cizikas and McDonald) "Not only are they doing the right things at the right times, but they're playing physical. That's exactly what we want them to do. Hopefully that'll continue for us. I would say that's something that we were missing last year."
Head of the Class
John Tavares has 222 career points; he is 61 points ahead of Matt Duchene for most among 2009 draft picks. No other player in that draft is anywhere close. Tavares also has more goals and more assists than any other player in that draft.
Friends, Friends, Friends
Matt Moulson has seven goals this season; John Tavares has earned an assist on four of them. Tavares has now been on-ice for 67 consecutive Moulson goals, earning assists on 44 of them, dating back to a Moulson goal on November 17, 2010 against Tampa Bay.
110 NHL Goals
Moulson has 110 career goals (104 as an Islander). While 262 players were selected before the Penguins chose Moulson in the 2003 NHL Entry Draft, only 17 have more goals. Of those 17, only four (Thomas Vanek, Jeff Carter, Eric Staal, Zach Parise) have averaged more goals per game.
Leading Ice Men
For the first time in six games, Mark Streit did not lead the Isles in ice-time. Andrew MacDonald played 24:39 to lead the Isles. Mark Zidlicky led the Devils with 21:56.
In the Circle
The Islanders won 34 draws; the Devils won 20. Casey Cizikas won 15-of-19 for the Isles; no Devil who took more than two draws won close to 50%.
Heavy Hitters
The Islanders out-hit the Devils 29-21; Colin McDonald led the Isles with seven hits. There were no fights in the game, leaving the season total at seven.
Back Over .500
The Islanders go back over .500 all-time (1353-1352-433 in 3138 games). The Isles were one game below .500 twice last season and once this season. Prior to that, they had not been below .500 since they were 177-178-83 before their victory on January 16, 1978.
4 Usually Enough
The Isles are 6-1-1 when scoring at least four goals and 0-6-0 when scoring two or less.
A Tale of Two Months
The Isles were 4-2-1 in January, outscoring their opponents 27-23. The Isles are 2-5-0 in February, and have been outscored 24-17.
Home Cooking
The Isles are in the midst of a stretch in which they will play nine consecutive games in the New York area (six at home, two at MSG, and one in New Jersey). The Isles are 3-5-0 so far in this stretch, with a home game remaining on Monday against Philadelphia.
Matt Moulson, the Isles' reigning ironman, has played in all 260 games since joining the team. Moulson's streak is the longest for an Islander in the Post-Cup era and the fourth-longest in club history. Billy Harris played in the first 576 games in Islander history; that figure still stands as the club record.
Three other Islanders (Frans Nielsen, John Tavares and Mark Streit) also played in every game last season. Tavares extended his streak to 173 consecutive games, while Nielsen and Streit have each played in 96.
Longest Consecutive Game Streaks, Islander History
1. Billy Harris 576
2. Bob Nystrom 301
3. Denis Potvin 262
4. Matt Moulson 260
Spirit of '76
Lubomir Visnovsky is now the oldest skater on the roster (Evgeni Nabokov is 12 ½ months older). He is six days older than Eric Boulton and twenty days older than Radek Martinek. All three players were born in August, 1976.
Visnovsky was credited with another assist. He has four points (all assists) in four games as an Islander.
Missing Men
Thomas Hickey, Eric Boulton and Marty Reasoner were scratched. Matt Carkner and Radek Martinek are on Injured Reserve. Jesse Joensuu remains suspended after suffering an injury in Europe.
The Isles have scored 28 goals in their six wins (4.67 per game) and 16 goals in their other 8 games (0-7-1; 2.00 per game). In their seven regulation losses, the Isles have scored 12 goals (1.71 per game).

Apartment Costs

LSC students rent in Duluth, because really there's no other choice. It's the only place with a strong rental market within ten or fifteen miles of LSC. But this isn't a gripe, of course, because it's a great place for students to live. Right on Lake Superior, reasonable apartment costs, great access to LSC. What more could you ask for? Just make sure you don't take Duluth for granted; some students wait until the last minute to find housing, and they end up without a place or forced to live somewhere they don't like.

Winters in Minnesota are colder than anywhere else in the country, save for Alaska and possibly Maine, and are especially miserable in Duluth. Because of its location right on Lake Superior, the city can get about a foot more snow than somewhere that's more inland. And I could rant all day about the cold winds off the lake. I'll just tell you this tidbit of information: the average low temps for December and January are in the single digits. Yes, you read that right. In January the average is 1 degree. And the high? Just 19 degrees. The summers on the lake are perfect, but you have to be able to brave harsh winters first.
