I bought this floor-length dress over 14 years ago from Hubba Hubba in Chicago. And I've never worn it. I bought it because I fell in love with how romantic it was... and (at the time) it fit me. And I hoped I'd have some place to wear it. It has hung in my closet(s) through the years and fell victim to one leaky roof in my parents' home, since discolored at the bottom, along with being a size small (like, size 0 small), tags still attached, I will never wear this dress. But it still makes my heart happy.
I completely forgot in the hall closet I had this ivory & black dress that I purchased a few weeks ago when we went to the farmer's market. I stopped into a boutique on the square (Ella's Bella) and found it for half-off. The photo doesn't really show off the cool pleats and flowy-ness of the dress.
I was in dire need of replacing my go-to dress of all time from Anthropologie and this one fit like a dream, has a fun belt, it hits just below the knee with black edging on the slip. I originally got it with the intent of wearing to a wine tasting event we were supposed to go to next month, but now we're not going. I'm sure I can wear it to the next evening party no matter what season. (I'll probably throw a black shawl or scarf over my shoulders in cooler months.)

Griffins Features
October 5, 2010
With a plethora of high draft picks and talented rookies slated for Grand Rapids this season, much of the spotlight prior to the Detroit Red Wings' training camp was on younger players. One of the names that ended up drawing most of the attention was originally one of the most unfamiliar on the roster.
Jordan Owens.
"First impressions are everything," said Owens after his first practice back in Grand Rapids on Monday. "My game plan was to come in and work as hard as I can, and hope that everything worked out from there."
The 24-year-old winger from Toronto was acquired by Detroit at the trade deadline last season from the New York Rangers, in exchange for Kris Newbury. Owens suited up in 17 games for the Griffins down the stretch, notching five points.
"He came in here last year and was a really nice addition, adding his speed and physical play," said Grand Rapids coach Curt Fraser, who assists Detroit's coaches each year during training camp.
"You'd like to think players can come to the camp and not only blend in with the scenery, but find a way to do something to stand out," Fraser continued. "That's exactly what Jordan Owens did."
Known more for his energy and two-way brand of hockey, Owens brings a skill set that Fraser believes complements the Griffins' lineup well.
"He really added an element we needed (last season)," said Fraser. "We weren't very fast, but he was. We weren't real tough, but he was."
"I'm an energy guy and a physical player," said Owens. "That's what I want to be known for here, my work ethic and physical play."
Despite the impression that he left in Grand Rapids last season, Owens found the adjustment difficult, learning on the fly how to deal with a trade in the middle of a season.
"I wasn't ready for it at all," said Owens. "There's a lot of added stresses that people don't realize when a player gets traded. I was living with my girlfriend at the time, and we had to pack up our apartment and move pretty much within a couple of days."
Fraser also noted the difficulties that traded players face. "When you get changed to a different team late in the season, it's hard to step in. You're staying at a hotel, you don't know anybody, it's a big change."
"I think he feels better about himself. I think he's ready -- he got off to a fast start."
Owens had a year left on his contract when he was traded from New York. He anticipates his first full season in Grand Rapids will go much more smoothly, having used the summer to prepare for Traverse City in September.
"I worked out almost every day in the summer, five days a week," he said, adding that he trained on the ice with Griffins goaltender Thomas McCollum. "I knew what I was coming into and that helped me out."
Owens was no stranger to NHL camps, having attended the Rangers' training camp the last three years while a member of the Hartford Wolf Pack. However, he faced stiff competition this fall at a Red Wings camp that boasted 37 other forwards. Jobs are limited, and a newcomer like Owens risked being lost in the shuffle.
"The Red Wings' camp is very, very fast," said Fraser. "Look at the veterans they have there, they're all Stanley Cup champions. When you step into that environment, it's different from a lot of teams."
Now adjusted to life in Grand Rapids, Owens focused on getting himself noticed by the Red Wings' brass.
"It was an honor to be there, there's so much history and tradition in the organization," he said. "I just wanted them to recognize me as a hard-working guy and a front-line soldier for the team."
"It was nice to see that he went in there with the idea that he was going to do something to make a difference, and he did," said Fraser. "The coaches talked about him a lot, and he was rewarded with exhibition games."
"That's what you want to see all of these players do -- earn an opportunity to play in these exhibition games to gain experience on what it's like to play with the best."
Owens was sent down to Grand Rapids following his third preseason contest. He didn't record any points in those games, but he did find the scoresheet several times during Detroit's training camp scrimmages, including a goal during the Red and White game that was the result of hard work and a strong finishing ability.
"I think it adds confidence, and it might set you up to get some extra ice time at the start of the year," said Owens of his strong preseason performance, "but everything is earned and the season is a grind."
While Owens is a Griffin for now, Fraser believes that he has landed himself a higher position on the organization's depth chart.
"He got to camp and was hitting, battling, and skating very well," Fraser said. "He stood out in all the practices and scrimmages."
"He's a great kid, and his on-ice performance at the Wings' camp has really moved him up in the pecking order of prospects," he added.
Owens will turn 25 at the end of the season, and with his contract in its final year, he knows that his performance in Grand Rapids could make or break his NHL future.
"My goal this year is to play every game like it's my last," said Owens. "It's such a big year for me. You only have one shot to make it. I'm going to live every day like it's my last, and scratch and claw and try to be the best player I can every single day."
"He's brought a lot of things to the table that really help us," said Fraser. "We're looking for some real big things out of him this year."

Gap's Lived-In global marketing campaign features emerging and talented young artists including musicians, singers, actors and photographers wearing their authentic, worn-in Gap staples: youthful interpretations of classic, casual styles.
The "Lived-In" attitude is brought to life by a cast of emerging and talented young artists including musicians, singers, actors and photographers. The campaign includes Trinidadian-born American recording artist Theophilus London; English singer-songwriters Birdy and Anna Calvi; American actors RJ Mitte and Julia Garner; Swedish photographer Lina Scheynius; and American singer-songwriter and record producer Ernest Green (performing under the stage name Washed Out).
A second interesting component to the campaign includes an ad in Vogue magazine's March issue: a first-ever tactile fabric print ad, which includes a fabric logo made from the cotton of a worn-in tee, driving home the idea of clothes you can live in.

Anyway it looks like we can put that rumor to rest because as you can see below, the happy couple was on the red carpet together last night. I'm guessing Mrs. Datsyuk just isn't a big fan of the spotlight and that is why we don't see her too often.
Maybe nobody else cares about this, but I was really happy to see this picture. Like I said, Pavel is a great guy and a hope he has a long life of happiness.

Preparing for the big day means planning a multitude of details; everything from the flower arrangements to that something blue must be decided upon well in advance of the ceremony. Here are some tips to help ensure your big day goes off without a hitch.
The big decisions
The decision to get married is the first of many big decisions you will be making in the weeks and months to come. Here are some things to consider right away:
* Pick a date. Talk with your fiance and family (and your fiance's family) about potential wedding dates to ensure the important people in both your lives will be able to take part.
* Select your guests. The number of guests you invite will directly influence the cost of your wedding.
* Set a budget. Budgeting for your wedding is crucial, as this will have a great impact on every other aspect of your day, as well as your honeymoon. Plan for a little wiggle room for unexpected expenses.
* Choose a location. Because most popular bridal spots are just that - popular - you may want to start searching for a location quickly.
* Organize the bridal party. Make careful decisions about who you want supporting you leading up to the big day, and who will be displayed in front of everyone.
* Pick a style. Many brides choose wedding styles that are reflected in their save-the-dates, invitations, ceremonies, receptions and thank-you cards. Choosing a theme and color scheme in the beginning will help narrow down options later.
* Hire a caterer. Take into account the dietary needs of your guests by offering a variety of menu options, including a vegetarian dish.
* Order the cake. Whether you choose a large multi-tiered cake or cupcakes, remember to keep your budget in mind - and pick flavors you and your fiance truly enjoy.
* Make the announcement. Decide how you want to let the community know of your planned nuptials.
Do you want to take professional engagement photos? Do you plan to contact your local paper? Will you include a link to a wedding day website on your save-the-date or your wedding invitations?
* Get the gown. On your wedding day, everyone will be awaiting a glimpse of your gown. Listen to your instincts and choose a gown that "feels right" and reflects your personality and style.
* Dress your party. Once you have chosen the wedding dress of your dreams, speak with your fianc about his wishes for his suit, as well as the bridal party attire.
* Hire a photographer. Choose your professional photographer wisely. With a walk down the aisle, father/daughter dance and toast, your father is sure to get photographed, but your mother might get overlooked. Make sure to ask the photographer to
get shots of your mother throughout the day as well.
* Choose your flowers. Once you set the date, discuss with your florists which flowers are in season to help narrow down your selection. You may love tulips, but if you have a winter wedding, they may be hard to come by, and may be more expensive.
* Book the entertainment. Do you want a DJ or a live band? Talk with your fianc about your music preferences, as well as the types of tunes you want played at your reception to keep your guests on the dance floor.
Before the big day
* Create a website for your wedding to keep guests informed of events and for easy access to registry information. Provide accommodation information for those guests traveling from out of town.
* Insure your engagement and wedding rings against loss, damage, theft or mysterious disappearance. According to a survey conducted by Jewelers Mutual Insurance Company, 44 percent of married women either don't insure their engagement ring, or don't know for certain whether their engagement and wedding rings are insured. For a free, no-obligation jewelry insurance quote, visit ww.insureyourjewelry.com.
* Make sure your marriage license, travel documentation and insurance information are ready to go and stored in a safe place in advance of the wedding day.
* Practice reciting your vows and speeches until you feel comfortable.
* Wear your wedding heels around the house to "break them in." Pack a back-up pair of flats to wear during the reception.
* Remember to ask for help. Designate members of your family or close friends to specific assignments.

When Mindy McCready talked to police in recent weeks, her account of how her boyfriend came to be found with a fatal gunshot wound to the head concerned police, a law enforcement source tells PEOPLE.
"At first, she said she hadn't heard the gunshot because the TV was too loud. Then she said she had heard the gunshot," the source says. "So obviously there were a lot of questions, and the Sheriff was asking for clarification."
But before investigators could re-interview her, the long-troubled country singer also would die under eerily similar circumstances, her body discovered at the same Heber Springs, Ark., house just feet away from where David Wilson died.
McCready's death was blamed on what "appears to be a single self-inflicted gunshot wound," the Cleburne County Sheriff's Office said in a statement.
This differed from how the sheriff characterized Wilson's case. His cause and manner of death still have not been established by the coroner. It was McCready's publicist, and not a law enforcement official, who announced that Wilson had died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
After Wilson's death, McCready, 37, spoke to investigators three times, but they didn't feel as if they were through with her.
"At no point did [police] tell her she was a suspect, and she wasn't officially one," says the source. "But she knew that some of her answers didn't stand up to questioning. She was very cooperative, but she just wasn't making a lot of sense."

A traditional scope can be affixed to the receiver, or a long eye relief scope can be mounted directly to the barrel with an optional one piece alloy scout style scope mount that stays attached to the barrel to maintain zero when the rifle is taken down.

Vast deposits of oil and natural gas, much of it underneath West Virginia, mean the United States may achieve energy independence within as little as a decade. Now, the question is how to make use of our new-found fuel riches as efficiently as possible.
Here in the Mountain State, more use of vehicles powered by natural gas is one possibility. State government, along with some local officials, is looking into taking the lead.
Natural gas vehicles are appealing in many ways. For one, the gas equivalent of gasoline is about half the cost.
One proposal is to convert 6,000 state government vehicles to use natural gas. In theory, that could save taxpayers some money, while encouraging establishment of more natural gas filling stations.
This is nothing new, however. About two decades ago, the state launched a similar experiment. At one point, as many as 1,200 gas-powered vehicles were in the state fleet. But then, natural gas prices went up and, temporarily, gasoline prices went down. The trial was abandoned.
It was far from trouble-free, as some of those who drove the gas vehicles have warned. For one thing, finding places to refill them wasn't easy. Often, state employees and officials who had dual-fuel vehicles had to turn off the gas and fill up with gasoline.
That experience was a valuable lesson. It was a reminder that vehicles capable of operating solely on natural gas are not a good idea. Dual-fuel cars and trucks are the way to go, at least for now.
But there is another issue, and it is one state officials should consider more carefully than did President Barack Obama in his "green" energy policy.
Obama's administration has thrown away billions of taxpayers' dollars in subsidies to expensive, unproven technologies such as solar and wind power.
The situation with our state and natural gas is far different. Gas-powered vehicle technology is far more practical and shows real promise of saving money for taxpayers.
Still, state officials should proceed with caution in converting state vehicles before the natural gas filling station infrastructure to serve them is in place. West Virginia taxpayers cannot afford an expensive experiment not grounded on a realistic prospect of success.

It's hard, that space that is there. As the days go by, it gets bigger. I didn't know it would be that way.
Why Dinner Will Never Be Ready.
Last night I prepared two different meals, for the bean eaters and the meat eaters with a pot on every burner and the water running and Gray lost Noah's brand new DS so without even realizing it I'm upstairs with my head under a bedskirt searching and underbreathcursing and then downstairs swatting Valentines off my hutch into a paper trash bag, remembering the water running down the cabinet, and the bag of chicken sits on the counter, cold pans on burners.
Ivy brings me my bible LOL and
drops it into the overflowing sink.
The phone rings and I accidentally squirt the counter with dish detergent (really?) in an attempt to clean SOMETHING.
I can do five things at once but I can't get one of them right.
Most days it's not like this, but get out of the groove even a smidge and it's all upset, needs mending.
I arrived to my knitting class the other night with confidence and a mostly-done project. I showed my teacher one area where I thought I might have made a slight mistake, meaning, she ripped out a ton of my work (a ton) and fixed my mistake and got me back on track. A bit behind, but I'm back where I need to be.

After a powerful Super Bowl halftime show, the singer, 31, is embarking on the Mrs. Carter world tour – and just added a special performance.
Beyoncé will return to New Orleans's Superdome to headline one of three concerts during the 19th annual Essence Festival, the magazine confirms.
"We are incredibly excited to welcome Beyoncé back to the 2013 Essence Festival lineup. She is truly the ultimate Essence woman," Communications President Michelle Ebanks said in a statement.
The festival will also include performances by Jill Scott, Maxwell, New Edition, Charlie Wilson, Keyshia Cole, LL Cool J and Brandy.

Justin Bieber might get teary-eyed if he tunes in to late night TV on Monday.
His ex-girlfriend, Selena Gomez, 20, cracked a joke on air about making the pop star cry.
"Last time you were here, you were with a Justin Bieber," David Letterman said to Gomez, who was a guest on Monday night's episode of the Late Show with David Letterman. "That's not going on now."
Said the starlet with a big smile, "No, I'm single. I'm so good."
Following a loud applause from the crowd, Letterman went on to say, "Now, the last time he was on, he and I got into a conversation and he said something and I said something, and then he said something and I said something, and I made him cry."
Then to a huge chuckle, Gomez responded, "Well, that makes two of us!"
Continuing to smile, Gomez – who hasn't publicly addressed the split until now – did not seem at all apologetic about the remark.
Since parting ways, Bieber has caused chatter with some eyebrow-raising behavior, while Gomez has been promoting Spring Breakers and hanging out with her costars.

Sara Maher on 6/13/2015
What is the dosage required to have 13 mg, how many doses in the bottle, and what is the standardized concentration ration?A
PureFormulas on 6/15/2015
Sara, Herb Pharm products are not standardized however the ratio is 1:5 (1 part dry herb to 5 parts menstruum). In 40 drops you are getting approx. 160 mg of herb. (recommended dose)...They have recently switched to a new dosing which is "one full squeeze of the dropper bulb" and that will give you approx. 140 mg of herb....this was due to complaints of having to count out 40 drops and was only given to you so you can calculate your 13 mgs. There are approx. 25 - 30 individual doses.

Man facing domestic battery charges
March 5, 2013
An Elkins man remained incarcerated Monday after he allegedly tried to choke a family member's girlfriend....
If you know anything about the situation then you would be able to run your mouth about it. She deserves what she gets and he should've done worse than that. The woman is psycho and has done so much crap for years and years and she lets her little girl go to known sex offenders houses and stay. That is the type of person she is. He should be thanked for what he did.

Typical! Looks real tough....beating up women. Wait until he gets into prison and meets up with someone his own size. Give him the maximum in jail time and penalties. I thought the democrats were pushing for 'tougher' domestic abuse against women laws? Gee, 3 times? Yeah, that's tough democrats. Real tough. Idiots.

Days before an alleged major player in the "Operation Last Call" drug ring is set to go to trial, police arrested another alleged participant in the Baltimore-to-Altoona criminal conspiracy: accused trafficker Stephen Piner's longtime girlfriend.
On Wednesday, members of the Blair County Drug Task Force arrested Melissa Marie Thompson, 36, 1424 18th Ave. She was committed to Blair County Prison in lieu of $250,000 cash bail.
A grand jury presentment, unsealed Thursday, names Thompson and several other new participants in the alleged drug scheme. The 21-page presentment indicates Thompson dealt drugs for Piner, repeatedly speaking in taped phone calls about sales and suspected informants' identities.
Thompson kept frequent contact with Piner and his brother, Kenneth, who allegedly distributed cocaine and prescription drugs from the Corner Bar in Altoona, the grand jury found.
A lengthy investigation led to more than a dozen arrests over the past two years. Participants allegedly smuggled cocaine and other drugs to Altoona from Baltimore.
One of the ring's alleged leaders, 32-year-old Jermaine Samuel, is set for a trial next week. Samuel is named repeatedly in the fresh presentment, raising questions as to whether he could face additional charges.
Officials from the Attorney General's Office, including Senior Deputy Attorney General Dave Gorman, the case's chief prosecutor, did not reply to requests for comment Thursday.
Several other new, alleged participants are named in the grand jury report - many of them are allegedly drug users, some of whom also dealt drugs - but no other names appeared on the state courts' online database Thursday afternoon.
Thompson didn't face charges in the first wave of "Operation Last Call," the authorities' moniker for the investigation.
Thompson allegedly drove her boyfriend to at least one drug deal, the presentment stated. During occasional lovers' quarrels with Stephen Piner, she would communicate instead with his brother, who would set up deals instead, prosecutors said.
During recorded phone calls, Thompson fretted about police informants - at one point in 2011, she told her boyfriend that a drug customer might be working with the authorities, the grand jury said.

Also, if your serial number shows that the psu was manufactured within the warranty period, then a receipt is not required.
Hope that's useful information.Quote

Also, if your serial number shows that the psu was manufactured within the warranty period, then a receipt is not required.
Hope that's useful information.
Thanks for joining the forum to clear up some of the points raised in the review.
Indeed the hard-wiring of the ATX, EPS-12v and PCi-E connectors is a very good idea as most/all of these cables will be used anyway. However, if you compare the Quattro with any of these units:
CM Real Power Pro 1kw
Enermax Infiniti 720w
Enermax Galaxy 1kw
Thermaltake ToughPower 1.5kw
They all feature hard wired ATX/PCI-E connectors (some even SATA/Molex) and all have between 8-10 modular plugs available for connectors.
Other than this shortcoming, the Quattro really is a very stable PSU and the price is outstanding. Quote

Better code, better apps.
Bitovi led the team that architected the MindTap textbook reading application.
In addition, we built a postMessage based API that allowed for safe, third party, cross domain app integration.
We worked with the WalmartLabs team to develop the Walmart mobile site & build an internal configuration app.
The configuration app controls the banner ads shown in Walmart mobile apps. Developed a speedy system that helped them update their ads frequently on Black Friday.
Bitovi, in cooperation with Zend Technologies and Uxebu, used JavaScriptMVC to build DSL - a social media content manager.
Users could share music, movies, and pictures with others. It included a "big scroll" table that worked with over 10 thousand records.
NetPlenish (now ShopGenius) lets you find the best price across the web.
Bitovi helped write its first iteration that included a google searchable frontend and complex state-based routing that inspired can.route.
Huawei hired us to design and build a video content management system.
It included a complex, real-time auditing workflow, drag and drop playlists and tagging.
Bitovi trained Trade Tech's developers and then helped create a new cloud based replacement of their existing Syrinx applications. Syrinx Trade Manager & Syrinx Trade Rates manages the scheduling and rate estimation for worldwide shipping operations.
Bitovi built a mobile version of the Mindjet Tasks project management application.
It was built using web technologies and built to a native app with Phonegap.
Bitovi built eNova an application that provides real-time queued support requests and quickly editable customer records for a large call center operation.
eNova loved the work, so they hired us back to build a services dashboard web application that helps monitor all of their servers in real-time.
Symantec hired Bitovi to build an optimization dashboard to give marketers live results of optimization campaigns running on Norton's eCommerce website.
The dashboard could be opened on any of the website's pages and pull in results for all past and present campaigns. It was context aware so the results were specific to the country and language of the current page.
American Kennel Club hired Bitovi to help them with the latest release of Online Competition Management System (OCMS).
The OCMS manages dog show events and judges that take place all over North America. Bitovi also assisted them on front end testing and automation.
EMC hired bitovi to work on RSA Archer eGRC.
Bitovi replaced pre-built JavaScript controls with custom built ones and implemented a thin server architecture to dramatically improve page load speed.
Mindjet hired Bitovi to create a realtime co-editing filemanager for ProjectDirector.
ProjectDirector helps your team stay on task, on track, and on time.
We worked alongside their team to build an open source hosted governance and risk compliance platform.
In addition to assisting in the development of the user interface and implementing user experience enhancements, we helped apply the needs for role-based access control and provided a gateway for users to easily access and digest all of the objects related to them in the system.
Bitovi led the rebuild of the OneSearch application.
We improved performance and code maintainability by implementing a thin server, client side MVC application architecture with JavaScriptMVC and CanJS.
Bitovi helped CapGemini with a rewrite of their procurement search engine application.
We trained their frontend team and helped their complex application support a diverse set of browsers ranging all the way from IE6 to iPad.

What is Wrong with the BLM's Management of Livestock Grazing on the Public Lands?
Joseph M. Feller
Arizona State University (ASU) - Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law
Idaho Law Review, Vol. 30, p. 555, 1994
This article seeks to present an accurate description of the current state of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) range management, and this examination reveals that livestock grazing, rather than environmental protection and alternative land uses, remains the first priority of BLM range management. It briefly reviews the nature and extent of BLM managed lands, impact of grazing on those resources, and statutes and regulations affecting the BLM's management of such grazing; discusses BLM policies and practices determining which BLM lands are used for livestock grazing and the numbers of livestock permitted to graze; presents examples, from the author's own experience, of how these policies and practices lead to the subordination of environmental values to livestock interests. While some recent regulatory changes contain some significant positive features, they fail to address the fundamental issue of whether some of the lands managed by the BLM are unsuitable or inappropriate for livestock grazing.

An Orlando Macy's worker is accused of using new customers' credit card information to buy items for herself and her family, according to investigators.
Authorities said the Mall at Millennia Macy's worker, identified as Constance Zellous, would take customers' temporary credit card slips and put them in her bra.
Surveillance video from the Macy's store shows Zellous doing this to at least one victim.
Authorities said Zellous made purchases at her own Macy's store and at the Fashion Square location.
Investigators are looking into several other incidents.
Zellous was booked into the Orange County Jail on felony retail theft and fraud charges.

The act of delivering an inexplicably disappointing performance, usually within the context of a college football season.
Oklahoma State's overtime loss to an unranked Iowa State was a full-blown Clemsoning.

Can you define these popular missing words?
Photos & Videos
1. The act of failing miserably on a grand athletic stage, or when the stakes are high. 2. Record-setting failure, usually reserved for college football.
There was an epic example of clemsoning when Clemson hosted Florida State in a highly anticipated football game on October 19, 2013. Clemson was ranked 3rd, while Florida State was ranked 5th. Florida State won the game 51 - 14. Clemson set a NCAA record for margin of defeat by a home team ranked #3 or higher. The 51 points scored by Florida State is the most points ever allowed by a Clemson opponent on Clemson's home field. Most of the home team fans could not take the clemsoning any longer and left the game mid way through the third quarter.

Lazy, pathetic journalism. Typically used by no-talent, agenda driven ass-clowns on ESPN as a click-bait plea.
ESPN's college football coverage sucks so bad, they resort to Clemsoning in a sad attempt to remain relevant. Any sports fan with a brain laughs at them.

The act of beating every team you are supposed to for 4 years in a row while most other teams lose inexplicably to teams they shouldn't during the same period of time.
They have been clemsoning with all the talent they have been able to bring in over the past 4 years.

In college football, beating two top-ten ranked SEC teams in a row or beating multiple ranked SEC teams in a season.
I can't believe how the ACC is Clemsoning the SEC this year.

3 'Genius' Artists Who Created Their Best Works by Accident
#1. Robert Plant
Led Zeppelin might be the greatest rock band ever, and Robert Plant is definitely one of the most important and influential rock singers of all time. And yet he tops our list as the quintessential accidental genius. Maybe the best way to explain how is to compare him with his band mates.
Atlantic / Wea
For example, he looks the least convincing in a spacesuit.
Prior to Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones were both successful, sought-after studio musicians, steeped in training and capable of playing in a multitude of styles. Jimmy Page was also the lead guitarist of the Yardbirds -- a band whose lead guitarist slot has also been filled by guitar greats Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck. Beyond mere musicianship, both men possessed diverse songwriting chops. Jimmy Page penned the music to the paint-peeling "Immigrant Song" and the ballad-like "The Rain Song." Not to be outdone, John Paul Jones wrote the music to "Black Dog" and "All of My Love." Lastly, while drummer John Bonham didn't have Page and Jones' studio credentials, you'd be hard-pressed to find any best-drummers compilation lists where he's not in the top five. The point is, you can see each of these men playing in other bands, tweaking their playing and doing whatever they need to do based on circumstance.
But Plant's time in Zep was more about Plant simply being Plant. And lucky for us, because all those magic ingredients above probably wouldn't have amounted to greatness unless Page had asked some dimwitted lunatic from West Bromwich to howl above the din. Robert Plant's contributions to Zep are a monumental achievement. There is no modern rock vocal without him. But he's still an accidental genius.
"Get on with it, d-bag."
First off, Plant's not much of a songwriter, never really drafting much in the way of actual music during Zeppelin or after. He's also not much of a lyricist. Has he written some of the most important rock lyrics of all time? He sure has. Are they awful? They sure are. For the most part, Plant lyrics are a confused lot of Tolkien-based stream-of-consciousness pretense that sound great as long as you don't think about them. References to suns that refuse to shine and lands of ice and snow. Big, bold, stupid lyrics that are awesome, but not created by a master craftsman so much as spewed by a halfwit who would have never risen above the role of dungeon master under different circumstances. Don't bother trying to figure out what a stairway to heaven is or what that bustle in the hedgerow might be. Your investigations will not be rewarded.
And frankly, he's not the greatest singer either on a purely technical level. Even at the time of the 1976 concert film The Song Remains the Same (from the '73 tour), he couldn't cop his "Ramble On" vocals, delivering them instead as a half-assed pseudo-Elvis. And then there are those rumors that he employed Alvin and the Chipmunks-esque technology to hit some high notes on the albums. If you listen to the end of the Song Remains the Same album, there certainly appears to be truth to that.
So yes, Plant deserves his legend status in the same way that a meteor flaming out of control across the sky before crashing down to Earth with tremendous impact deserves notoriety. Not so much for what it has done as for what it is.
Watch the season finale of HATE BY NUMBERS. Also, be sure to follow Gladstone on Twitter and stay up-to-date on the latest regarding Notes from the Internet Apocalypse. And then there's his website and Tumblr, too.

Well-made Backpack
By fiddles
from Austin, Texas
Comments about Levenger Tech Backpack:
The backpack is great for everything. I can see business travelers putting everything in it--clothes toilet kit, computer and its accessories and necessary paperwork. However when all the compartments are used the backpack is too heavy for me. I am short and have had some hand problems in the past. It is a beautiful bag and I would recommend it
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Amazing Backpack!
By HappyMom
from Visalia, CA
Bought this for my son who is in grad school. Decided to open it up and check it out before I wrapped it for Christmas. This backpack more than met my expectations!.Quality, size, ease of openings. Everything about it is functional and very stylish. As always, thanks Levengerfor a great product!!!
Best bag ever
By CSTRMN
from White Plains, NY
The best recommendation for this bag is that I've bought it three times. I wore out the first two, and I am just grateful they are still making it so I can have the third. Great construction, beautiful leather, great interior space, handy alternate strap configurations. Just the best.
Best Backpack Ever!
By Greens
from New York, NY
My closet is full of messenger bags and backpacks that were useful but never came close to the Levenger Tech Backpack I recently bought. Messenger bags are full of great pockets and design features but always seemed to pull my back out of alignment so I moved to backpacks. The Levenger Tech Backpack has all the great features you could ever want. There are 4 separate compartments neatly engineered with a zipper pocket in the 2 smaller ones and dividers either with pen, key and pocket organizer or padding in the 2 larger compartments. The backpack has tons of room for files, papers, magazines not to mention cell phone, iPad and computer with chargers. The profile of the backpack is sleek and fits my back more comfortably than any of my backpacks sporting extra padding. Not only will you feel great with this backpack on your back you'll look awesome!! Prepare to be complimented wherever you go.

Event coordinator Judy Kinser said the festival provides "a real boost" to the economy of Hana. Ho'oleia Kaeo and a group of his Hawaiian studies students from the University of Hawaii Maui College started the event off with an oli. There were vendors and information booths on the Hana Ball Park field. UH-MC students taught poi and kapa pounding; apu awa, or the making of coconut cups for awa; and pupu, or traditional fish-net weaving. Elsewhere on the grounds, there was hula and music. On Sunday, there was the taro pancake breakfast at Hana Bay and excursions to farms in East Maui.

Can you define these popular missing words?
Powdered drink mix within a collapsing plastic tube, sold in the 1980s in North America. Much like Tang, Burple was sold to be mixed with water and consumed as a fruit flavored juice. Was sold in a variety of flavors. The product did not last long on store shelves, however.

1. Burping while saying the word purple.
The six year old girl was describing her favorite color, purple, when she accidentally belched at the same time, creating a perfectly intelligible word with a burp in the middle, a burple.

ASS! Burple. A yummy fruit that comes in a *neat* accordian bottle. just add wata babay. its killer shit, makes kool-aid look like horse-piss. (name comes from the sexy belch it makes when extraced fully)
Cock-sucker! now im old enough to get drunker than hell on work nights, and they go and discontinue burple.

An aviation term that denotes the point at which the air flowing over an airplane wing starts to become turbulent. This turbulence can cause the airplane to stall.
The pilot was trying to climb fast and the wing angle was so great that it reached the burple point and caused the plane to stall.

Ball State's gymnastics team will host Penn and Centenary Friday at 7 p.m. in Irving Gym of the Student Recreation and Wellness Center.
The Cardinals have won two meets in a row and stand 2-0 in the Mid-American Conference. This non-conference meet will feature Penn, which is 1-0 on the season and placed third and fourth in two invitationals to start the season. Centenary, which competes at the NCAA Division III, placed second in its first invitational of the season before falling to Southeast Missouri State.
Ball State had individual champions in three events and the all-around in its last meet vs. Northern Illinois to even its season record at 2-2 overall.
Brittney Emmons won the vault with a 9.85 and the all-around with a 38.70, while Brooklyn Schumacher tied for first on the bars with a 9.8 and Denasiha Christian tied for first on the floor with a 9.775.
The Cardinals, under the direction of head coach Nadalie Walsh, is off to one of its best starts in school history. Against NIU, the Cardinals tallied a 48.725 on the vault, which was the ninth best team vault score in school history.

I've never shot one, the only .380 I've ever shot is my LCP, but I understand a Bersa .380 is fairly heavy and probably doesn't have much recoil.
October 28, 2012, 10:25 AM
Of the few I've tried, the Sig P238 is definitely the best. Easily beats guns like the LCP, P3AT, and Bodyguard .380.
Haven't met anyone who can't handle shooting my 238.
October 28, 2012, 10:48 AM
Try the Browning BDA/Beretta 84 (Same gun) in .380. Mid size frame, 13+1 capacity, hand filling and easy to shoot with mild recoil. Bunches of them on Gunbroker right now.
Just my .02,
October 28, 2012, 10:48 AM
The Bersa doesn't feel bad at all, it is my favorite .380 to shoot at the range. The Thunder+ (15rd) has even less recoil but its a bit wider. CZ 83 isalso a soft shooter. As far as the pocketgun .380s I would have to say the Colt Mustang or Sig 238.
As a general rule the heavier it is the lighter the recoilwill seem.
October 28, 2012, 12:41 PM
+1 for the BDA/84. Wonderfully balanced and comfortable in the hand, hardly any recoil at all.
October 28, 2012, 12:59 PM
Taurus PT58.
October 28, 2012, 12:59 PM
Probably the only 380 I've shot is a Beretta 84, I've put maybe 150 rounds through my buddy's. It was super accurate and recoil felt like a .22. It's not a pocket pistol, though.
October 28, 2012, 01:02 PM
Beretta 84 or 85, CZ 83.
October 28, 2012, 01:19 PM
Assuming you mean 'gun' and not 'ammo'....
Beretta 70S
Yet, any .380 has hardly any.
You cannot beat a Bersa .380 or .22
Something about them is just a plan that came together .
Least malfunctions of any/all semi-autos I have ever seen.
October 28, 2012, 01:43 PM
I owned a steel framed Bersa 383 in the early nineties. Sold it to a buddie's wife who was working in a liquor store, after the store got robbed while she was working.
I regret selling that one. It was a great little pistol.
October 28, 2012, 01:52 PM
Tanfoglio FT-9, because it's the size of a full-size nine, firing the 380 ACP:
The second 380 handgun with the least amount of recoil is the H&K P7K3 - which I believe has the same gas-retards blowback system as the P7M8 / PSP
wild cat mccane
October 28, 2012, 02:00 PM
in polymer it absolutely is the Walther PK380. (note, not the PPK)
October 28, 2012, 03:08 PM
The two that stand out in my mind are the Beretta 84 and the H&K P7K3. The Beretta had the more comfortable grip the P7K3 had the least muzzle flip
October 29, 2012, 06:46 PM
CZ 83 and Beretta 84. Probably give the edge to the Beretta but it would be close. The 83 is still a blowback pistol so you still get that snap.
October 29, 2012, 06:52 PM
Walther PP also has low recoil, nice pointability
October 29, 2012, 07:38 PM
I think the new SIG P250 .380 (http://gunnuts.net/2012/01/27/sig-sauer-p250-380/) would be a soft shooter since it is about the same size as the Beretta 84's/Bersa's but is locked breach and not blow back.
October 29, 2012, 07:45 PM
Generically speaking look for .380's with a locked breech. Kahr, Colt, Sig etc.
Any blow back model, PPK etc, will have a lot more snap.
We still have a custom tweaked Colt Pony Pocketlite. My wife took it right after I had a Smith in NC tweak it. I haven't seen it since. She loves it because it is so easy to shoot.
You would pay too much for a Colt Pony today to make it worth having.
So my next choice would be a little Sig. Go here http://www.chuckhawks.com/compared_380_pistols.htm for the model because Sig does also make a blowback model. I have never fired one but according to Chuck Colt sold the tooling to Sig for the locked breech version.
October 29, 2012, 07:48 PM
I'm not sure the point of the post. This is how I see the issues. If you want really low felt recoil in .380 then yes shoot a heavier weighted gun. Try the full size versions as others have mentioned. The felt recoil will be less. Now the point of the .380 is to have a smaller package for CCW and the like. To that end the Bersa, or my old Browning DBA, or similer sized guns all have very manageble recoil for male or female. If you are just recoil sensitive then maybe a 22 is the way to go.
October 29, 2012, 09:19 PM
Not sure about the lightweight mustangs, but the older all steel colt mustangs felt like shooting a .22!
October 29, 2012, 09:32 PM
I had a chance to shoot a Walther PK380 and of all the 380's I've owned or shot that ranks number one in my book for lowest felt recoil.
The Sig P238 also has very light felt recoil.

I've fired a Makarov .380 (heavy steel frame) and an LCP, and come to think of it, the LCP had less perceived recoil (blow-back, vs. locked breach).

October 29, 2012, 10:15 PM
+1 on the Walther PK380
October 30, 2012, 07:56 AM
^ Beretta 84/85
October 30, 2012, 10:48 AM
Yes, anything locked breech will have less felt recoil for the most part. My Russian commercial Makarov in .380 with Pearce grips is hard to beat though. Probably due to the grips and all steel construction it has a bit less felt recoil than my Beretta M85FS. Both are straight blowbacks, and both are great shooters.
October 30, 2012, 10:54 AM
Just me, Bersa or Beretta
Cactus Jack Arizona
October 30, 2012, 11:55 AM
As a few others have mentioned, one of my favorite .380's has been the Bersa Thunder .380 acp. When you add the rubber Bersa grips, the recoil is so light that one could shoot it all day. Well, if the ammo didn't cost so much.
The Sig P238 was a decent gun, however I always felt that I was going to break the trigger. I hated the trigger. Also the 238, being a shorter barreled firearm to the Bersa Thunder .380, was not as accurate.
Lastly, others have mentioned the CZ 83. I've never shot the 83 but I've held one at the local gun shop. It has quite a bit of weight to it so I can only imagine that it's felt recoil would even be lighter than the Bersa.
October 30, 2012, 04:00 PM
Felt recoil is dependent upon a number of things, not just energy vs weight. The softest shooting (or, maybe better put, most *pleasant*) .380 that I have shot is the all-steel 230/232. Darn big for today's .380, but something about the grip angle/shape/width, spring rate, slide, bore axis, or whatever, just works.
The softest shooting "micro" .380 that I've tried (out of P3AT, LCP, Kahr P380 and even original short PPK) is by far the Sig P238. For some reason, I just never was totally satisfied with the platform, so I sold mine, but it wasn't because it was hard to shoot.
October 30, 2012, 11:43 PM
Makarov in 380
October 31, 2012, 02:16 PM
I've only owned pocket-sized 380's. Just about all of them available over the last 3-4 years. To date, the lightest recoiling is the Sig P238. I also liked the Kahr P380. They are both light guns, but I think a lot has to do with the way they are sprung.
October 31, 2012, 02:36 PM
I have shot several different different .380ACP pistols and the BERETTA 84 was the softest recoiling to me. However, it is a large gun for this caliber and the wide grip to accommodate the double stack magazine and 1 1/2 pound weight are the reason.
I also really like the SIG 232 blue frame model with the non fingergrip plastic grips. It weighs 17 ounces, yet the recoil is not wearing at all to me.
Both are very reliable, accurate and usually have very good triggers.
October 31, 2012, 09:53 PM
I have and do own several 380 autos and the easiest recoiling was my Taurus PT58HC, followed closly by the Beretta 84, Bersa Thunder 380 Plus, and then there is my Colt Govt model 380 and Walther PK380. The worst recoiling of the lot is the LCP but then for such a small pistol there has to be a trade off, light small pistol combined with a cartrige like the 380 and you have got to expect some recoil. and the last although not a 380 it's a 9mm Mak is my CZ83 which is one great little pistol and if the 380 version (CZ82) si anything like its 9 mak brother I would rate it right up there with the PT58HC and Beretta 84. That CZ has one of the sweetest triggers both single and double action that I've ever had the pleasure of shooting.
October 31, 2012, 11:41 PM
PK380 all the way. I shoot my buddies and its a great gun. I just don't like the magazine release at allm probably the same reason why I'm not a huge fan of HK pistols
November 1, 2012, 06:12 AM
In a larger full-size gun then the Beretta Model 84 or Browning BDA 380. Great for the range and a decent home defense gun. For something a bit smaller for CCW I would go with the Colt Mustang or the SIG P238.
November 1, 2012, 06:26 AM
Skorpion in .380 http://www.zelenysport.cz/pistole/sa61s-9mm-br-samonabijeci-pistole
Also Kahr P380 has surpisingly low recoil.
November 1, 2012, 03:30 PM
My PPK/s isn't bad for blow back due to the weight.Colt govt/mustang series with the locked breech are good for small guns.
November 1, 2012, 04:31 PM
Beretta 84. Lama made one like a mini 1911.
November 1, 2012, 04:44 PM
I haven't shot them all, but the Star D recoils the least out of all that I have shot.
November 1, 2012, 05:14 PM
You guys are forgetting the Beretta 86
November 1, 2012, 06:06 PM
My new Colt Mustang is the first .380 I've enjoyed shooting. Waaay more comfortable than an LCP or Kel-Tec.
November 1, 2012, 06:34 PM
I think I have only fired a PPK and a Beretta 84 in .380, but the Beretta made me feel like I was shooting a .22....
November 3, 2012, 09:20 AM
I agree with the Beretta 70s. Also the 1911 style lock breech autos in .380 like the colt mustang and Llama III-A

This. The pk380 is almost as soft as a 22.
November 3, 2012, 11:13 AM
The Llama .380 with the locked breech (mini 1911 design) is a joy to shoot. They went to a blow back design in the 70s but the Especial models were well made and had very low recoil.
November 3, 2012, 11:38 AM
Browning M-1922.
November 3, 2012, 03:40 PM
I'm not sure the point of the post. This is how I see the issues. If you want really low felt recoil in .380 then yes shoot a heavier weighted gun. Try the full size versions as others have mentioned. The felt recoil will be less. Now the point of the .380 is to have a smaller package for CCW and the like. To that end the Bersa, or my old Browning DBA, or similer sized guns all have very manageble recoil for male or female. If you are just recoil sensitive then maybe a 22 is the way to go.
The point of the post is to satisfy my curiosity. My wife is recoil sensitive and she wants a home defense gun that hasn't too much recoil.
November 3, 2012, 07:11 PM
Everyone that has shot my Walther pk380 has loved it. This includes my wife and mother who had never shot before and both of my daughters. We all agree that there is no more recoil than any of my .22's.
November 4, 2012, 09:54 AM
If you can find one, you might try the Remington Model 51. Locked breech, delayed recoil operation with very low perceived recoil. It naturally points where you want it to hit, and has a very ergonomic grip design.
It is a flat, easily concealable design, and was one of General Patton's favorite pistols.
November 4, 2012, 10:53 AM
I think a CZ83 is very light shooting. However my LCP with a 95gr bullet and .28gr of 231 is also pretty light.
November 4, 2012, 11:17 AM
How about Glock 25/28 chambered for .380 Auto?
IME, Glock polymer frame and RSA do a nice job of taming felt recoil, even for snappy 40S&W.
Glock 25 - 4" barrel, 20 oz empty and 15-19 round capacity - http://www.glock.com/english/glock25_tech.htm
Glock 28 - 3.46" barrel, 18.6 oz empty and 12-19 round capacity - http://www.glock.com/english/glock28_tech.htm
And before you comment that G25/G28 are for sale to law enforcement personnel only, consider the following (this is for California so check your state gun laws) - http://wiki.calgunsfoundation.org/FAQ
Is there any way to buy a handgun that is not on the Safe Handgun Roster?
Yes. Current law enforcement (not retired) is exempt from the Handgun Roster, and may resell off-Roster handguns to non-LEO.
Non-LEO may also sell off-Roster handguns through the CA Private Party Transfer (PPT) process at an FFL.
LGS stock G25/G28 in "LEO only" display cases.
November 5, 2012, 04:36 PM
Sig P238. I had given up on a fun-to-shoot .380 until I found this little gem.
November 5, 2012, 06:11 PM
I own the LCP and the CZ 83 and the recoil on the two really doesn't compare. The LCP is no fun to shoot. The CZ 83 is really fun to shoot. For my wife and mother I went in a different direction though. For my mom I recommended getting the LCR in .357, then had her shoot .38 out of it. For my wife we have the single action blackhawk, also in .357 but loaded with .38. To each his/her own. I just know that my wife and mother don't shoot often and the revolver is so much easier to understand, conceptually. Less to remember and very easy recoil seemed to be the way to go. You know your spouse better than anyone else. I just can't imagine my wife or mother racking a slide or doing anything else necessary to fire an autoloader safely. I really like the Ruger single six in stainless with the .22 wmr as an option. Very effective, simple, safe, and almost no recoil. Just something to think about.
November 5, 2012, 09:52 PM
Home Defense Gun with low recoil?
A pistol caliber carbine, probably 9mm.
Or, if money is no object, an H&k SP89 or proven reliable clone.
If extreme low recoil is needed, then a tuned Ruger 10/22 Charger with a drum mag and a passive red dot sight.
November 5, 2012, 10:21 PM
I have not seen it mentioned and have no experience with it but sig now chambers the P250 subcompact in 380. Has anyone shot it? I would assume the recoil is low
November 13, 2012, 09:34 PM
I shoot a Browning BDA .380.. It's not a pocket pistol.. But I can't hit the side of a barn with a .40 or .45 or 10 mil.... With the Browning on a quick draw, i can put 13 into a softball size circle at 8 yards in 4 seconds... I think that will do the trick...
November 15, 2012, 03:42 PM
Star D - had one years ago, a fine all steel pistol. Europe police issue. Goes 'pop' and you are still on target.
November 15, 2012, 08:01 PM

How right you are! I have one of these (inherited from my dad) and it is wonderful. The only problem is that it's a bit of a booger to field strip.

Browning BDA/Beretta 84.
You can really get a grip on them unlike many pocket pistols.
November 17, 2012, 09:51 AM
My Grand daughter carries the Walther PK 380 and it has the least recoil of any I have shot for a light weight carry gun. It is very easy to rack the slide as well.
November 17, 2012, 09:54 AM
The heaver the gun the less felt.
November 17, 2012, 01:33 PM
From experience I can tell you that the Bersa has no thumb wracking recoil.

Ericsson and Allen are both VERY effective penalty killers. Who knows about Wiz and Kronwall, but it can't be worse than the glut of offensive minded defensemen we already have under contract.
Ericsson is not very effective yet. And I'd argue they would be in a worse situation because you would be stuck with mediocre defenseman for 5-8 more years. If Enstrom hit the open market, and Holland didn't go after him I'd hold him accountable. But the players you mentioned would not make us a better team in the long term, although that is just my opinion of course.

The Psychiatric Times reports on NAMI's successful and expanding education programs.
Inspired by her own family's experiences with schizophrenia, Joyce Burland, Ph.D., wrote a standardized course curriculum and training guide in 1991. The Family-to-Family Education Program she authored was designed to educate other families coping with mental illness.
Dr. Burland, a clinical psychologist, is the national director of the NAMI Education, Training, and Peer Support Center. The Family-to-Family Education Program, available free of charge through NAMI affiliates, has helped more than 150,000 family members of adults with serious mental illness. It will also serve as a model for NAMI BASICS, a program for parents and other caregivers of children and adolescents with mental illness, scheduled to launch next year.

TORONTO � There is something missing from Joe Sakic�s new plaque at the Hockey Hall of Fame � and it�s not because the printer made a mistake.
Among the list of his many achievements is no mention of his 21st NHL season, the one that never was played because of the 2004-05 lockout. With the sport back in another dark period brought on by another labor dispute, Sakic reflected on the year that never was on the day he took his place among hockey�s greats.
�I lost a year of hockey,� Sakic said Monday before the induction ceremony. �It would have been 21 years instead of 20. That�s what you lose.�
Fellow inductees Mats Sundin and Adam Oates also were in the NHL when the last lockout hit, while Pavel Bure, the fourth member of the class, already was retired.
Sundin never managed to win a Stanley Cup during his career and can�t help but wonder what could have been had the 2004-05 season been played. His Maple Leafs were on a run of six consecutive playoff appearances before that work stoppage.
�It was awful,� said Sundin. �I think it�s devastating.�
While all four of the inductees appeared to have thoroughly enjoyed their induction weekend, the current lockout made it a more subdued affair than usual. They were to have been honored at Air Canada Centre before a scheduled Devils-Maple Leafs game Friday � a missed opportunity in particular for Sundin, the longtime Leafs captain, and Oates, who grew up in Toronto.
Sundin is back living in his native Sweden now, but the impact of another work stoppage hasn�t gone unnoticed even from a distance.
�I think it�s huge,� he said. �The National Hockey League is kind of representing the game of hockey. It�s the biggest representative of the game of hockey in the world. When the NHL is not going, people lose focus on hockey.
�For everybody that is involved in the sport, it�s huge to get the guys back playing as soon as possible.�
�It hurts the players, it hurts the owners, it hurts the fans, and it hurts the game,� Sakic said.
The two men at the center of collective bargaining negotiations, commissioner Gary Bettman and NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr, both attended Monday night�s ceremony. Bettman referred to �difficult times� after paying tribute to the inductees in a speech.
�All of us � fans, teams, players � look forward to the time the game returns,� Bettman said.
The lockout also was a hot topic of discussion on the red carpet as members of the hockey world arrived for the ceremony. Hall of Famer Mike Gartner, who was active in the NHLPA during his playing days and later worked for the union, expressed concern for the sport.
�I think that one of the main dangers is that the fans and the game is taken for granted, that it�s going to come back to the same health that it was before,� Gartner said. �When you look at the last time that it happened, coming back to record attendance and record profits and taking a business that went from $2.5 billion to $3.3 billion in revenue, I think that tendency can be � and I don�t think it�s consciously � is to take all that for granted.
�I think that there�s a real danger in it. I sense that there�s more of a danger now than there was in the past.�
Igor Larionov, another Hall of Famer who now works as a player agent, called for �common sense.�
�I�m very positive it�s going to be resolved in a matter of weeks, maybe two or three weeks,� said Larionov. �You�ll see the game back in shape and the players playing.�
All four members of this year�s Hall of Fame class were affected by a labor disruption during their careers � Bure was playing for the Vancouver Canucks during the lockout-shortened 1994-95 season � and it�s reasonable to expect that trend will continue for some time after four work stoppages in the last 20 years.
Oates finds himself in a unique position because the lockout has delayed the start of his first season as a head coach with the Washington Capitals. He was hired on the same June day he found out he was heading into the Hall, making �for a pretty emotional 15 minutes.�
The last season of his playing career came in 2003-04 with the Edmonton Oilers.
�I thought about (continuing to play) because I wasn�t happy with my year in Edmonton, so I didn�t really want to go out that way,� he said. �I was considering it, but (the lockout) made it easy.�
He doesn�t harbor any regrets about quietly being ushered out of the game. In fact, it fit the personality of somebody who avoided the limelight by making his name as an excellent passer rather than a scorer.
�That�s the kind of the guy I am � a little bit understated,� Oates said. �Actually Joe (Sakic) said it this morning: We�re all understated guys, believe it or not.�
Bure�s career was ended prematurely because of knee injuries, and he only ended up playing 702 NHL games, just slightly less than half as many as Sundin, Sakic and Oates. But he made the most of what time he had by scoring 437 goals. He never dreamed he�d find a plaque with his name in the Hall and spoke with emotion during his induction speech.
�I think it�s the biggest achievement you can get in hockey,� Bure said. �The selection committee combines everything you�ve done for hockey worldwide, so for me it�s a huge honor. It feels great.�
For now, hockey at its highest level remains on hold.
Sakic works as an adviser to the Colorado Avalanche and is as anxious as anybody to see the NHL resume. Looking back, the pain of sitting out an entire season quickly went away when a new CBA was signed.
�I remember coming back that next training camp; I was pretty excited to be back and playing the game,� Sakic said. �You realize how much you miss the game.�

The other day while I was nursing Gray, I giggled to myself when I thought I should have a shirt that says Breastaurant across the chest. Tee hee.
Can anyone relate?
And just when I thought maybe I should copyright that idea, I googled it and found this cool site. What a great idea!
