Yesterday, I received one of the most exciting emails of my life. I was very excited when I saw CONGRATULATIONS. Everybody around me was surprised. Where is Mongolia?
I called my wife and my two young girls to tell them about my selection for the Earthwatch project. They were also very surprised.
After I talked about the project with everyone around me, I started receiving a lot of information from everywhere. I became very open to everyone and everything—Internet, TV—that was speaking, thinking, or writing about Mongolia.
I received email congratulations from many Alcoa employees. That's why I would like to say thank you very much, Alcoa.
Wednesday, April 11, 2007
After I wrote my first diary entry, somebody asked me why I applied for an Earthwatch expedition. There were also many other questions that I will clarify today.
I worked for 10 years in forestry, five years protecting and preserving wildlife, and another five years studying tree plantations. Since 1993, I've worked for Alcoa Deschambault in the shipping department. A part of my job is loading railcars and trucks, and the other part is handling paperwork (shipping manifests).
Now with Earthwatch, many old dreams are coming back.
My favorite interest is spending time on my family's land—learning about natural habitats, hunting, fishing, and playing hockey.
Day after day, I am getting more prepared for the China project.
Monday, July 23, 2007
The time has arrived, and the ultimate trip is coming. I have worked on it for four months.
I just left my family, and it was an emotional moment. I have a long flight—Québec to Toronto, Toronto to Beijing, and finally Beijing to Xi'an.
Tuesday, July 24, 2007
I missed my plane in Beijing because the flight took too long between Toronto and Beijing. There was someone from airport personnel waiting for me, and we ran to catch my next plane, but we were too late. I had to take a later plane at 1:30 p.m.
It took 25 hours to get to Xi'an from Québec. Xi'an looks like a typical city, just like many people told me.
Wednesday, July 25, 2007
Today, we took a one-day tour of Xi'an, including a visit to a museum in Banpo Village that contains Neolithic ruins. These village ruins can be traced back in history to 6,000 or 7,000 years ago.
We also visited the Qin Dynasty's terracotta warriors and horses (the eighth wonder of the world) and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda.
Tomorrow, we will start the Earthwatch project.
Thursday, July 26, 2007
Today, we took the train from Xi'an to Dunhuang, which is located on the west side of China, close to the Gobi Desert. We spent the entire day (24 hours) traveling, but the panorama was amazing. We ate a lot of real Chinese food, and we had to use chopsticks. I am sure I will master this art of eating.
The compartment on the train was small but okay.
Friday, July 27, 2007
We arrived in Dunhuang around 10:30 a.m. We spent some time in the marketplace, where we could see many spices. It smelled very good. We also could see chicken, fish, and pork that was roasted and sold on the street. It was amazing.
In the afternoon, we went to the Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring site, which is situated five kilometers (three miles) south of Dunhuang. Having sand and a spring at the same place is a marvelous phenomenon in the desert.
We climbed to the top of one sand mountain, which was about 400 meters (1,312 feet) high. It was amazing.
Saturday, July 28, 2007
Late in the morning, we left to go see the Mogao Grottoes at Dunhuang. Commonly know as the Thousand Buddha Caves, the grottoes are located in the eastern foothills of the Mingsha Mountains, about 25 kilometers (15.5 miles) southeast of Dunhuang.
Construction of these caves began in 366 AD and ended in the ninth century. The caves contain some 45,000 square meters (53,800 square yards) of murals and 2,400 painted sculptures. In 1987, the caves were listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
Sunday, July 29, 2007
This morning we went to Jiayuguan Pass, first built in 1372 BC during the Ming Dynasty. It is one of the greatest and best protected passes along the Great Wall. Afterward, we started to cross the Gobi Desert, traveling from Jiayuguan to Ejin Qi.
This was a ride of around 280 kilometers (175 miles) across the desert, and a big part of it was off-road. I was amazed not only by the scenery but also by the driver. The road was in a very bad condition every moment. Later, we could drive 120 kilometers-per-hour (75 miles-per-hour) on a smooth surface.
I was with Cella from Romania and Tim, an Earthwatch employee. Sometimes we would burst out laughing.
Monday, July 30, 2007
In Ejin, our itinerary changed due to military maneuvers in the grasslands and the high level of the Black River. Professor Gu had to speak with the minister responsible for water resources to get authorization for our visit, but we couldn't go to the grasslands. Due to this, we will stay 10 days in the Black City, visiting this ancient place and sampling the water near the Mongolian border.
Water sampling consists of checking the water temperature, pH, dissolved solids, electron transfer activity (EH), and dissolved oxygen. We take different sizes of samples—two four-ounce samples, one one-liter sample, and sometimes a four-gallon sample.
This sampling helps the Chinese scientists determine if the quality of water has changed, why China's massive Gobi Desert is growing at an alarming rate, and where the water is going.
This evening, we had a big typical Mongolian dinner. The meal was very good compared to what you can find on the street. The Chinese government needs to make an effort to have this kind of food available on the street.
Dinner finished with two ladies in ceremonial dresses singing Mongolian songs to each of us. Everybody greatly appreciated the dinner.
Tuesday, July 31, 2007
We visited Ejin City, which might be the last place where we can send email to our families since we'll be in the desert for 10 days.
In the afternoon, Professor Gu was interviewed by China Radio International. This gave him good exposure to share his views on Earthwatch and water conservation. He discussed the problem of transporting water by canals, because a lot of the water is lost.
Nick and I were also interviewed as Earthwatch volunteers. For my part, I focused my discussion on the Earthwatch program and my help with the water study. The interview could be broadcast on Nepal radio.
Afterward, we started our 1.5-hour journey to the Black City. After arriving, we set up our tents in an amazing spot that was very close to the city's ancient ruins.
The ruins of the once mighty Black City are silent testimony to the effects of desertification. Set on the banks of a long-vanished river, the city was once home to thousands. Now, it is surrounded only by sand and populated only by ghosts.
Wednesday, August 1, 2007
The first night in a tent was nice. Breakfast, which we had in a Mongolian house (yurt), was basic but good— instant coffee, porridge, and eggs.
We only had to walk about 90 meters (300 feet) to get inside the wall of the Black City. On the right side, just before the wall, was a mosque. On the left side, we could see domed–shaped religious structures.
Within the city, we saw more than 1,000 ancient artifacts, including broken pottery, ceramics, carved wood, and animal bones. These artifacts bear witness to human life in 1038 AD, and it was a very special feeling to be there.
The Black City eventually died due to a territorial dispute that caused the water wars. The enemies rerouted the Black River to starve the city's inhabitants.
At base camp in the evening, Professor Gu taught us about dams and how irrigation systems cause further long-term water shortages. The water is not allowed to saturate the ground, evaporation occurs, and the groundwater is not recharged. These bad practices are causing growing desertification.
The night was particularly tough, because a big sandstorm fell upon on us. The hard wind caused the sand to penetrate everything, including our eyes and ears. Everything in the tents was covered by a half-inch of sand. Nobody slept very well, but it was an all-new experience of the desert.
Thursday, August 2, 2007
We visited another old city that was first named Horse Loop and founded in 561 AD. I saw many bones and shells in the walls. This was also the place where our driver found an arrowhead that was used during a war. Professor Gu said it was the first time somebody found one.
Later, we visited a pottery factory, where we saw a lot of pottery pieces and a roof tile with a dragon's face.
Each day, we went to a base camp for lunch and dinner. It was a Mongolian family's house, and the people were very friendly. For lunch, we arrived at 12 p.m., and we started back to work around 3 p.m. It was better to stay out of the sun during the three hours in between because of the high heat, which sometime reached 47° Celsius (117° Fahrenheit).
In the afternoon, we visited three Mongolian nomadic homes and sampled their wells. We learned more about the instruments used to measure many things about the water—depth of each well, the smell and color of the water, etc.
Our hosts were very interesting. They insisted we go into their cool living quarters and drink some green tea.
Friday, August 3, 2007
A member of the team—Tim, an Earthwatch employee—had felt very ill since last night and couldn't come with us today. We returned to the campsite at noon to check on him, and he said he was just able to drink. Everybody was a little bit anxious, because it is the end of the world here. At the end of the day, he was taken to a military hospital in Ejina.
We went to sample an old well in a place named Earthwatch City. We had to pull up 100 buckets of water before we could test it.
This ancient area was named Earthwatch City because it was discovered by Earthwatch volunteers. It has many artifacts. I found a copper coin that Professor Gu said came from the Song Dynasty, which was the period from 1078 to 1085 AD. A similar coin was found three years ago by another Earthwatch volunteer.
In the afternoon, we tested three more Mongolian family wells. Like before, we were offered green tea, goat cheese, and assorted treats. I was very grateful to our hosts for their kindness and hospitality.
Saturday, August 4, 2007
We visited the Red City, which was founded in 102 BC. It was amazing, and we could relax in the shadows created by the city walls. Closer to the city, we saw a lot of dry trees because of the lack of water—the desert effect.
In the afternoon, we asked Professor Gu if it would be possible to change the itinerary, because we would be spending too much time in the Black City for what he needed us to do. The team would be able to take all of the necessary samples in four days, allowing us to leave two days earlier to go have lunch at Bayan Mod and get some sleep in Alxa Zuoqi. We will spend the entire day getting there by bus. Everyone on the team also wanted to stay in Yinchuan for three days—some for four days.
In the evening, Mr. Sing—Professor Gu's technician—went to see Tim in Ejina. After three intravenous bags of hydrating fluids and antibiotics at the hospital, Tim appeared to be getting better. This was good news.
Sunday, August 5, 2007
Our driver went to retrieve Tim, so we had the morning off in the Black City.
Like every day, we stayed in the base camp between noon and 3 p.m. because it was sweltering. Afterward, we took some more water samples, which smelled like sulfur.
Monday, August 6, 2007
It was a hard night because of a big sandstorm. Imagine sleeping with sand in your eyes, nose, and ears.
I tried to use a sand scarf but without success. The sand continued to come into the tent. Another team member used a different tent, but none could be good in these conditions. When we got up, we had a half inch of sand on everything.
We tried to maintain our western lifestyle, but we had only one pot of water a day to use for washing. We were just moving sand from one part of the body to another.
Because of the extreme heat conditions, we also needed plenty of water so we could drink often. Each of us typically drank around two liters of water per day.
Tuesday, August 7, 2007
This morning was a special day, because we went to the Black River to swim. When we arrived, the level of the river was very low. This was probably normal, because I was able to compare it to when we passed a week ago when it was raining.
In the afternoon, we tested more Mongolian wells. According to Professor Gu, one of them was an older well with 1,000-year-old water.
At night, I called out to the other team members when I was walking around the camp, because I saw a large mouse with kangaroo-like hind legs, large ears, and a long tail. They call this animal a jerboa.
Wednesday, August 8, 2007
It was now time to leave, and I think we did a very good job.
We said our last goodbyes to the base camp family, which I was sad about it.
We will sleep for another night here and hope we don't have a sandstorm.
Thursday, August 9, 2007
We left the Black City around 6:30 a.m. to go to Ejina, where we took a bus to Alxa Zuoqi. On the way, we stopped at Bayan Mod for lunch and a visa check (we're in a communist country).
The landscape changed a bit during the trip. We saw dunes and grassland, but most of it was desert. This is a place where you would want to walk, but it would take a lot of energy and water and require good orientation skills.
After 10 days in the desert, I now know you have to listen carefully to your body.
Friday, August 10, 2007
On the road to Yinchuan, we visited the Xi-Xia mausoleum, where we could see a fresco tombstone. I also saw my first Mongolian horse.
Because of government restrictions, the expedition ended early. We spent the rest of the day visiting Yinchuan City.
Saturday, August 11-13, 2007
We enjoyed Yinchuan, a city of 1 million people. It was very clean and modern, of course. It was a poor area, but it was a great place to do some shopping before we left China.
In conclusion, this trip was a very good experience. I appreciated the Chinese and Mongolian hospitality. I learned more about the environment and water resources, and how rare and precious water is in this part of world. The Chinese history was also unbelievable.
Thanks to Earthwatch and Alcoa for their support.

Category Archives: Trade Rumors
Sabres looking to trade Roy
One player who figures to have his name whispered often leading up to Friday's first round is Derek Roy. The center had a disappointing season and is entering the final season of his six-year contract. Roy will earn $5.5 million next season but has a manageable $4 million cap hit.
If the Sabres move Roy or another big name, it wouldn't be the first time they used draft weekend to significantly alter the roster. Names such as Jochen Hecht, Michael Peca, Tim Connolly, Don Edwards and Tony McKegney have been part of selection meeting swaps. The biggest blockbuster came in 1990, when the Sabres acquired Dale Hawerchuk and a first-round pick from Winnipeg in exchange for Phil Housley, Scott Arniel, Jeff Parker and a first-round pick.
The most recognizable star on the market this year is Columbus right wing Rick Nash. The captain wants out, and the Blue Jackets are expected to accommodate him after failing to find a suitable deal at the trade deadline. The 28-year-old has six years remaining on a deal that averages $7.8 million.
The main purpose of the draft, though, is to pick young players. Nail Yakupov is likely to be No. 1.
The 18-year-old Russian forward is ranked first by NHL Central Scouting, a position he also held at the midterm rankings. Yakupov recorded 31 goals and 69 points in 42 games with Sarnia of the Ontario Hockey League and added nine assists in seven games for Russia at the world junior championships.
Go get 'em, Burkie
The Leafs are expected to be near the front of the line if former Anaheim Duck first-rounder Justin Schultz becomes a free agent in a couple of weeks.
Schultz, a big defenceman with 44 points in 37 games, is leaving the University of Wisconsin a year early to play pro. But he's thus far not signed with the Ducks, who could lose him if a deal is not reached by June 24. After that, a number of teams are in the picture, his home province Vancouver Canucks, the needy Detroit Red Wings, the Rangers, Oilers and the Leafs.
Toronto's connection is that Burke drafted him just prior to leaving the Ducks in 2008, 43rd overall, the round after another Wisconsin defenceman Jake Gardiner. Anaheim was so anxious to get Schultz signed, it was reportedly prepared to burn a year of his entry-level contract just to play him in the final few games of the regular season. The Ducks might also work a trade for his rights before the 24th.
Will Leafs turn to Luongo trade now?
The world of goaltending options is closing in on the Toronto Maple Leafs.
With Tomas Vokoun signed in Pittsburgh and Anders Lindback acquired by Tampa Bay, the list of available quality goalies has shrunk by two. And while there are many teams interested in inquiring about Los Angeles backup Jonathan Bernier, at this time the Kings prefer to maintain the status quo with Jonathan Quick as starter and Bernier behind him.
The pro-active trade Steve Yzerman made for Nashville's Lindback hurts the Leafs in two different ways: 1) It removes a goalie they should have had interest in from the marketplace; 2) It provides one of their opponents in the Eastern Conference with potentially better goaltending than it has had in the past (and you know the Lightning, with Steven Stamkos, can score goals).
With Vokoun and Lindback scratched from the list of the available and the Kings' Dean Lombardi saying "having only one quarterback is dangerous," that leaves Roberto Luongo as their best goaltending option moving forward to this week's NHL draft and trade meet. The good news with Luongo is it won't cost much to get him. The bad news is it's a long-term solution for the Leafs and if they still believe in James Reimer and, to a lesser extent, Ben Scrivens, then it isn't an ideal situation for the development of a youngster.
While there are still run-of-the-mill free agents available such as Josh Harding, Scott Clemmensen and Chris Mason, there is nothing that would excite Maple Leafs fans here. Luongo remains the most viable option — and that's not without its pitfalls.
The Latest On Luongo
Luongo to Where?
Where will Vancouver goaltender Roberto Luongo be playing hockey next season? Obviously he'll need to be moved if the team wants to move forward with Cory Schneider. Tampa bay GM Steve Yzerman has denied interest but sources tell me they aren't necessarily buying it. Many feel his quick denial is an attempt to deflate the market for the All-Star goaltender.
Multiple people tell me they don't believe Canucks GM Mike Gillis has interest in moving Luongo to Toronto and seeing him playing on Hockey Night in Canada every Saturday night. He wouldn't want to have that thrown in his face every weekend especially if Luongo is having success. It's much easier to hide him in a U.S. market.
We saw this years ago with Edmonton and Toronto before Chris Pronger was dealt to Anaheim. The offer then-Oilers GM Kevin Lowe received from Toronto was actually better than the one he accepted from Anaheim. Lowe apparently would rather accept less than move him to the Maple Leafs where the Chris Pronger show would air every Saturday night.
We've seen exceptions most recently with Calgary shipping Dion Phaneuf to Toronto.
Bouwmeester most likely vet to be dealt at draft
On the telephone from Montreal late Thursday afternoon, when called to discuss the Gelnias hire, Hartley might've unwittingly given a tipoff as to how this all might play out.
"For me,'' he declared, "looking at Jarome, Giordano, Tanguay, Glencross, Cammalleri, Kiprusoff . . . that's going to be the core of our team.''
Now maybe it was nothing more than an honest omission, or the overactive imagination of a scurrilous scribbler, but one prominent name was missing from Hartley's list. There was no mention of No. 4. Of Jay Bouwmeester. Of a guy whose logged murderous minutes since the day arrived here.
If there's to be a Regehr scenario unfold for the Flames in Pittsburgh next week, Bouwmeester shapes up as it. Yes, his compensation is wildly out of whack (he's owned $6.68 million for this season and next), he put up almost as many minuses (minus-21) as points (29) last year and has the standard no-trade clause, but at age 29 when (if?) the 2012-2013 regular-season kicks off, the time seems right.
That persistent Columbus rumour that made the rounds a year ago is floating out there again. Toronto's been mentioned, too. And despite the stiff tariff, you can wager there are bound to be other suitors willing to overlook certain flaws to secure the services of a player with the motor, the effortless skating prowess, of a Bouwmeester.
Red Wings an unlikely destination for Rick Nash
The most likely destination for Nash is the New York Rangers, who, like everyone else, covet pending unrestricted free agent Zach Parise but who were told earlier this week that Parise doesn't consider that a realistic move for him. The Rangers are still looking to get over the top after losing in the Eastern Conference finals to New Jersey, and need help up front, as it's expected star Marian Gaborik will be sidelined five to six months following shoulder surgery.
The other likely destination is Vancouver, where the Canucks are looking to unload Roberto Luongo and figure out a way to make good on years of unfulfilled playoff promise. The San Jose Sharks will be looking to make a move, too, after losing in the first round despite making a big splash at last year's draft by trading for defenseman Brent Burns.
Management is very serious about re-tooling the Wings after a first-round loss to Nashville, but the focus is on doing it via free agency more than via trades.
Maple Leafs likely to pass on Rick Nash, pitch for Roberto Luongo
Expensive accomplished players like Patrick Kane, Nash, Jay Bouwmeester and Roberto Luongo are possibly available for trade. Ryan Suter and Zach Parise appear set to leave Nashville and New Jersey respectively as free agents. Teams are getting set to make moves lockout or no lockout ahead.
Which brings us to the Maple Leafs.
It's an intriguing time for GM Brian Burke and his staff as they contemplate the future. The expectation among many is that Burke is plotting aggressive ways of making sure the Leafs don't miss post-season play again next season eyeing a veteran goaltender (Luongo?) in search of quality veterans to bolster Dion Phaneuf and the leadership group in the Toronto dressing room and searching for ways to get the No. 1 pick in next week's draft.
There's just not enough there yet even with some promising players with the Marlies to start aggressively thinking short-term like the Kings.
The likeliest scenario then is for something in between:
• A play for Luongo that might cost one good prospect.
• A mid-range NHL free agent.
• An aggressive bid for unsigned Anaheim blueline prospect Justin Schultz.
• No deal for Nash who may have scratched Toronto from his list of preferred destinations anyway.
• No move up from No. 5 in the draft and therefore ending up with a blue-chip youngster who will be back in junior or Europe next season.
The message? Staying the course no short-term fixes or at least none involving players who can only help for one or two years. Luongo, maybe, because he's a long-term solution in the crease.
It would be a statement that the Leafs aren't yet in the prospect-rich position L.A. was last summer but also that they believe enough in what they have put in place — Phaneuf as captain, Phil Kessel as the centrepiece up front — that a goaltending upgrade would make everything look better.
Blue Jackets GM willing to move No. 2 pick
Columbus Blue Jackets general manager Scott Howson has many ideas running through his mind about how to improve his team. Trading the second-overall pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft is one of them and Howson says the pick has already garnered some interest from around the league.
"We've certainly listened to people. We've had a couple of expressions of interest on the pick in terms of moving down," Howson told The Morning Show on Sportsnet 960 The Fan on Thursday. "We wouldn't want to move too far down so we'll just see how it plays out next week. Traditionally, and if history repeats itself, teams get a little more serious about exchanging picks as we get closer to the draft on the draft floor."
Howson, who has been the Blue Jackets GM since 2007, said he is looking at any and all avenues to improve his squad and is open to dealing his top pick if the right offer is made. But he also admitted that trading away a high draft pick can be quite difficult.
"We'd be open to any suggestions," Howson said. "It's not an easy trade to trade out of the two slot, or one slot or three slot for that matter."
The Blue Jackets are no strangers to making deals close to draft day either. One day before last season's draft, Howson traded Jakub Voracek to the Philadelphia Flyers along with the eighth-overall pick (which the Flyers used to select Sean Couturier) in exchange for forward Jeff Carter.
In February, Howson then flipped Carter to the Los Angeles Kings for defenceman Jack Johnson and a conditional first-round pick. Although disappointed Carter didn't help his club like he anticipated, Howson has no regrets about the signing and was pleased he was able to get a good return when they traded him.
The market for Columbus Blue Jackets winger Rich Nash is heating up ahead of next week's NHL Draft.
According to the Columbus Dispatch, as many as seven teams have had 'significant discussions' with the club in the last 10 days about acquiring Nash.
The report adds that the New York Rangers, San Jose Sharks, Philadelphia Flyers, Toronto Maple Leafs and Carolina Hurricanes are among the teams that have expressed interest.
Blue Jackets' general manager Scott Howson said that the club had, "significantly more discussions this week," but would not comment directly on the most recent trade talks regarding the team captain.
Luke Schenn-to-Oilers rumour riles Leafs GM
Brian Burke's disputes with the Mother Corp just don't seem to be going away.
The Maple Leaf president/GM was furious on Monday over a Hockey Night in Canada report that suggested there are "rumblings" throughout the NHL that Burke is prepared to trade defenceman Luke Schenn to the Edmonton Oilers for the No. 1 overall pick in this month's entry draft.
"Typical of Hockey Night," said Burke. "I have never discussed this trade or any trade involving Luke Schenn to Edmonton."
The report was part of HNIC reporter Elliotte Friedman's popular "30 Thoughts" blog on various goings-on around the NHL. Friedman said he doubted the deal would happen, but added that "many teams" think Schenn will be a better player outside of Toronto.
"There are rumblings that Toronto will offer Luke Schenn to Edmonton for a swap of first rounders," wrote Friedman. "No doubt Brian Burke would like to make a huge draft splash. He loves the big stage. And I do believe the Oilers like Schenn and have discussed his availability before. But I just can't see it happening for the first overall selection."

Report: Leafs shopping D Luke Schenn
The Toronto Maple Leafs are rumoured to be shopping defenceman Luke Schenn to the Edmonton Oilers as part of a deal where both teams would swap 1st-round draft picks in this month's NHL Draft, according to Elliotte Friedman of CBC Sports.
The trade would allow the Maple Leafs to move up and select consensus first overall selection Nail Yakupov, a 5′ 11" right wing from the Sarnia Sting. In 79 games this season, Schenn matched a career high with 22 points and posted a plus-minus rating of -6. He will entering the second season of a five-year contract worth $18 million. Meanwhile, Yakupov tallied 270 points in 107 games over the past 2 seasons in the OHL.
Red Wings Need Some D-men
The loss of Stuart and Lidstrom further accentuates the need for defenseman — be it through trade or more likely free agency — in the next several weeks.
Holland said he had brief discussions with other general managers at the GM meetings two weeks ago, but nothing interested him.
Players such as Ryan Suter (Nashville), Matt Carle (Philadelphia), Barret Jackman (St. Louis) and Dennis Wideman (Washington) are potential unrestricted free agents that will attract the most attention, with Suter the undisputed No. 1 target of teams.
There's also Justin Schultz, an Anaheim draft pick who has gone unsigned. Schultz will become an unrestricted free agent later this month and will attract a lot of interest — the Wings included.
"We'll be active," Holland said. "We've lost two quality defensemen."
Stuart played in 81 games last season, scoring 21 points (six goals, 15 assists), while averaging 21 minutes, 3 seconds of ice time. He had one assist in the five-game playoff series to Nashville.
Murray is a 6-foot-2, 218-pound center who split time between the Sharks and the organization's minor league affiliate Worcester last season. Murray can also become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, but it's not certain the Wings will aggressively work to re-sign him.
With the Sharks Murray, 30, played in 39 games with four points (one goal, three assists), while averaging 7:42 of ice time. He played in 10 games with Worcester, scoring three points (two goals, one assist).

Cyclic sieving
In combinatorial mathematics, cyclic sieving is a phenomenon by which evaluating a generating function for a finite set at roots of unity counts symmetry classes of objects acted on by a cyclic group.[1]
Let C be a cyclic group generated by an element c of order n. Suppose C acts on a set X. Let X(q) be a polynomial with integer coefficients. Then the triple (X, X(q), C) is said to exhibit the cyclic sieving phenomenon (CSP) if for all integers d, the value X(e2πid/n) is the number of elements fixed by cd. In particular X(1) is the cardinality of the set X, and for that reason X(q) is regarded as a generating function for X.
is the polynomial in q defined by
It is easily seen that its value at q = 1 is the usual binomial coefficient , so it is a generating function for the subsets of {1, 2, ..., n} of size k. These subsets carry a natural action of the cyclic group C of order n which acts by adding 1 to each element of the set, modulo n. For example, when n = 4 and k = 2, the group orbits are
- (of size 2)
- (of size 4).
One can show[2] that evaluating the q-binomial coefficient when q is an nth root of unity gives the number of subsets fixed by the corresponding group element.
In the example n = 4 and k = 2, the q-binomial coefficient is
evaluating this polynomial at q = 1 gives 6 (as all six subsets are fixed by the identity element of the group); evaluating it at q = −1 gives 2 (the subsets {1, 3} and {2, 4} are fixed by two applications of the group generator); and evaluating it at q = ±i gives 0 (no subsets are fixed by one or three applications of the group generator).

A semester's worth of research, interviews, site visits and planning culminated this week as four teams of Black Hill State University tourism students presented their vision for the future of the City of Redfield.
The student teams, who are in Dr. Ignatius Cahyanto's Tourism Planning and Development class, each created a five-year sustainable tourism plan for the city, located in the north east part of South Dakota.
The fall session of the South Dakota Stock Market Game(SDSMG), sponsored in part by Black Hills State University, concluded with more than 580 students from 21 schools participating.
During the 10-week trading period, students formed 215 teams of stock market investors and researched various companies and industries before purchasing online shares with $100,000 in cyber funds.
The conference room in the Black Hills State University Life Sciences Laboratory was turned into Santa's workshop last week as a handful of graduate students and professors filled 77 stockings of donated items from pencils and calculators to socks, hats and games which were delivered to the Red Shirt community this week.
The stuffed stockings, however, are just a part of the donations that were brought to the community as part of an ongoing tradition started by two BHSU students 12 years ago.
Black Hills State University has been ranked on two national blogs as one of the safest and most affordable universities.
The culmination of a semester's work from some of Black Hills State University's most creative and talented photography students is currently on display in the University's Photographers Gallery.
The exhibit "All In" is a collection of more than 100 photographs taken by students enrolled in the Contemporary Issues in Photography course this fall. The exhibition will be on display in the lower level Jonas Hall gallery through Jan. 29. An opening reception was held last night for the exhibit.
While earning their degrees at Black Hills State University, Kalani Corpuz, a mass communication major from Rapid City, and Markus Heinrich,a business administration entrepreneurship major from Whitewood, saw an opportunity to increase recycling. Their focus on being environmentally friendly ultimately led to the creation of a business, Cans 2 Cans Recycling LLC.
National Geographic wildlife journalist and biologist Joe Riis will share his documented journey of wildlife conservation at a talk Thursday, Dec. 6, at 7 p.m. in Jonas Hall 305 on the Black Hills State University campus.
Black Hills State University marketing students recently received first-hand experience in putting their classroom theory learning to the test. Three of Dr. Wei Song's marketing classes partnered with local businesses helping them develop marketing plans and strategies.
The BHSU associate professor of marketing said the project was a great experiential learning opportunity giving students the chance to be engaged in learning while blending theory and coursework with practical, applied experience.
Literature's favorite quirky inquisitor takes on a new mystery – his own – in Black Hills State University's holiday production Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Christmas Carol. The show runs from Thursday, Nov. 39 through Saturday, Dec. 1 at 7:30 p.m. in the Woodburn Theatre on the BHSU campus.
Lomask, who has trained at several prestigious dance schools including the Royal Ballet Academy, Merce Cunningham Studio, and London Contemporary Dance School, will speak in the Pangburn Theatre Monday, Dec. 3, at 7:30 p.m. She will also give a talk at the Dahl Arts Center in Rapid City Tuesday, Dec. 4, at 7:30 p.m. During her talk, Lomask will take a deeper look at the creative processes that scientists and artists share. She will also show video of her troupe's performances.

Final testimony in Plymouth pit projectNovember 20,2012Final testimony in pit project
PLYMOUTH The deadline for final documents and arguments in the Act 250 permit case of the proposed Frog City Gravel pit is approaching.
All parties in the case, including Hawk Mountain Resort area homeowners, are asked to submit filings to the commission, in response to anything thats been previously submitted, including a requirement that the application conform with local and regional plans for development.
The deadline is 4:30 p.m. Nov. 30.
By Dec. 19 at 4:30 p.m., all parties are asked to submit proposed findings and conclusions of law.
This is the last step before the regional Act 250 commission, based in Springfield, makes a decision to issue a permit or not, according to Linda Matteson, district coordinator.
The project, proposed by town Select Board chairman Ralph Michael, is to reopen a gravel pit used during Tropical Storm Irene recovery for commercial operation.
The plan has drawn controversy from some neighbors concerned about noise and traffic from the pit.

Roughly 3 months before the demise of EGM, I let my subscription lapse. Like many subscribers, I imagine, I didn't expect the mag to be going anywhere any time soon. And I was broke and moving at the time, etcetera etcetera. After all, among the tripe residing on racks across the nation, the one videogame mag with uncompromised integrity and impeccable journalism and effortless, brilliant humor would surely endure!
Well, we were cruelly reminded that, as has always been the case, quality alone does not equal viability, if I may over-simplify. And we were left bereft of the one mag that mattered, while superficial rags like Gag Inducer and ShamePro soldier on. ... And to add a rancid cherry to this s*** sundae, I had let my near-decade-long subscription lapse, missing the last few issues! It's hard not to feel just a tad bit responsible...
When I first heard of EGM's death, my heart sank. It was exactly the feeling you might get after a break-up with someone you love. Hyperbole? I don't write for GamePro, people - I'm completely serious! Now maybe I need to re-evaluate my priorities, but I've been painfully dwelling on the fact that I wasn't with my love at the time of her death.
Well Milkman's news has lifted my spirits. His involvement (in whatever form) and Shoe's too... I was inspired to write a blog for the first time, as I just had to explicate my joy at hearing the news.
As a final note, let us not be averse to welcoming a new crew when this new incarnation of EGM launches. After all, the man who started it all is responsible for this second coming, and as long as the spirit and competence EGM has been known for over the years don't dwindle, nor will my support for the mag.
Consider my subscription renewed.

The University of Missouri system has released the numbers of how high tuition could increase if the state slashes its budget.
System administrators want curators to increase tuition next year by 7.5 percent on the Columbia campus, 8.2 percent at the University of Missouri-St. Louis and by 9 percent at Missouri University of Science and Technology in Rolla. The Kansas City campus would see a 3 percent increase.
Similar increases are being sought for graduate programs and non-resident undergraduates. The proposals follows a recommended 12.5 percent cut in state funding for higher education in Gov. Jay Nixon's proposed fiscal 2013 budget.
ã??MU Chancellor Brady Deaton sent out a letter this past weekend expressing his concerns over proposed state budgets to his school. Deaton said Governor Jay Nixon's recommended budget for the University of Missouri System is not acceptable. Deaton said the proposed cuts would mean job losses, higher tuition, reductions in research and the loss of top faculty to competitors.
The state budget cuts are subject to lawmaker approval. At the same time, under state law, the university system needs state approval to increase resident undergraduate tuition beyond the inflation rate.
Deaton points out, Missouri is among the bottom 5 states in the nation in support of public higher education. Deaton said, "I don't think the state can afford this. I think we need opportunities to talk to our constituents. That was one of the reasons why I wanted a letter out there, because I want to talk to the people who are affected by these kinds of budget changes, to help them understand the dire conditions that we are operating under right now."

EMC is buying Silver Tail Systems, a developer of software that analyzes Web/mobile activity to detect security threats and fraud, for an undisclosed sum. Silver Tail, which will be added to EMC's RSA security unit, meshes with EMC's stated goal of buying security companies with promising tech. It's also something of an analytics play, given Silver Tail's software is used to analyze huge volumes of Web traffic. (PR) (Zscaler investment)

Republican women gather groceries for needy at Christmas party
January 10, 2012
The Leavenworth County Republican Women met at the Byron H. Mehl American Legion Post No. 23 Hall on Dec.12 for their annual Christmas party. Members and associate members each showed up with a sack of groceries to share with the less fortunate in the county along with a covered dish to share with their fellow members.
After lunch, officers were installed for the upcoming 2012-2013 term. Sabrina Valenta of Bonner Springs, outgoing president, swore in the new officers: Barbara Paulus (president) from Bonner Springs and Leavenworth residents Linda Scheer (vice-president), Karenn Voorhees (secretary), and Linda Flanagan (treasurer).
Willie Dove, associate member and Bonner Springs resident, lead the group in singing Christmas carols. He soloed on the songs "Christmas Shoes" and "Mary, Did You Know?"
In the week following the meeting, the donations were distributed to food banks in Leavenworth County. Linda Scheer delivered to Trinity House in Leavenworth while Sabrina Valenta delivered to Elm Grove Baptist Church in Bonner Springs. LCRW member Rep. Connie O'Brien and her husband delivered to the Good Shepherd Thrift Shop and Food Bank in Tonganoxie.

Jan & Petr - WilliamHiggins
Models: Petr Bousek and Jan Mikulec
Studio: William Higgins
We invited our handsome newcomer Petr in for a screen test, with Jan. After a brief interview between the two they start to kiss. Jan's hand reaches into Petr's pants for a grope. Petr responds by feeling Jan's cock through his underwear. Petr's pants are lowered to reveal that his cock is already hard and Jan goes down to suck on it. He takes that hard dick in his mouth, sucking on it as his own hard cock is out of his underwear. He takes his time, making sure that Petr is enjoying the attention, as he sucks and then licks and kisses his balls. Then the guys get completely naked and Jan places the two cocks together and wanks them as he leans over to kiss Petr again. It is then Petr's turn to suck and he takes Jan's big cock in his mouth and begins to suck it, licking up and down the shaft and on the balls too. After sucking for a while he presents his ass for Jan to work on. Jan positions himself behind Petr and slides his hard cock into the waiting ass. He starts to fuck it with long, deep strokes, stretching the hole. Petr takes it very well, especially for his first time. The fucking continues apace and Petr turns over so they can fuck in missionary as well. Jan really pounds his dick into that hole until he is ready to blow and moves up and dumps his load all over Petr's face. Then Petr takes the spent cock into his mouth to clean it up before Jan leans over for a final kiss. What a great start to Petr's career in guy-guy sex with both guys doing very well indeed.

Welcome to my inaugural blog for Psychology Today! Perhaps I should start by explaining the blog's title for anyone who may be asking: "What does it mean to be almost addicted?"
This phrase describes folks who are using drugs to a degree that's creating actual or potential problems in their lives -- but the drug use does not rise to any diagnostic level. As such, even though people who are "almost addicted" might not suffer the devastating problems that often accompany being fully addicted to a drug, they might be suffering nonetheless. Examples might include:
--Folks who feel like they can only truly relax in social settings when they have a drug in their system
--Those who occasionally fail to show up for functions and obligations because they're high
--People whose school or work performance has ever suffered as a result of drug use
--Anyone who has experienced conflicts in relationships with family members, friends, spouses, or co-workers as a result of drug use
Identifying someone who is almost addicted can do more than just help improve things in the here and now. It can also prevent the drug use from escalating into full-blown addiction, and it may prevent major problems from developing later. In Almost Addicted, I give an example of the kind of story I've seen many times: someone whose Vicodin use hovered in the almost addicted range for a couple of years before it exploded into full-on addiction, which ultimately had devastating professional and personal consequences.
So who might be vulnerable to becoming almost addicted? The truth is, just about anybody. A large study conducted in 2009 found that 21.8 million Americans ages 12 and older (in other words, 8.7 percent of this group) had used illicit drugs in the month prior to the survey. This same study found that 16.7 million Americans ages 12 and older had used marijuana at least once in the previous month.
Prescription drug abuse is also rampant: 16 million Americans in 2009 used these drugs for nonmedical purposes at least once in the previous year.
With marijuana use being increasingly legalized across the country, and with prescription drug abuse at epidemic proportions, the potential for running into trouble because of drug use is as high as ever
So what should we do? First, we need to recognize that drug use that does not rise to any diagnostic level can still cause problems, sometimes big ones. Since this level of use can cause more subtle signs and symptoms than we see with full-on abuse or addiction, we need to take stock and honestly assess our relationship—or that of our loved one--to drugs
Thankfully, almost addiction is a problem that can be addressed with many solutions, which I'll be discussing here in the future.
Thanks for reading, and please join the discussion here on a regular basis! Future blog posts will delve deeper into drug use, but they'll also address more general issues about mental health, the nature of psychiatric diagnosis, controversies over the newest Diagnostic and Statistical Manual in the psychiatry field, and difficulties accessing health care in the United States.

Sheriff's officials say Tuesday night Philips used lights on his dash board to pull over a woman and claimed to be a US Marshal.
But when the woman reportedly smelled alcohol on him as well as asked to see his badge, which he could not find she became suspicious.
Officials say Philips let her go and she reported it to the Sheriff's Office.
Two days later, Philips was found and arrested.
But sheriff's officials are warning residents to be careful.
"Question them. You don't have to exit your vehicle. You can roll the window down enough tht they can pass the drivers license out they can ask for their ID. We are all required to carry what's called a T-Close, Texas Commission Law Enforcement Officers License ID," said Sheriff Paul Cunningham, Montague County.
Sheriff's officials don't believe this was Philips' first time. So, they're asking anyone who believes they were pulled over by Philips, call them at 894-2871.

Skip to comments.Barbara Bush Should Shut-Up
Posted on 11/20/2010 12:13:04 PM PST by American Dream 246
This annoys the hell out of me, because I'm not some rabid Palinista. Crap like this from Barbara Bush leaves one no alternative but to respond to it. What, does she have another son, or a grand kid lined up for the job of President? Reagan handed your husband his, despite some misgivings, and he blew it, Barbara.
And as much as I supported her husband and her son while they were in office, they've hardly gotten us to a great place. Guess what? If not for 9/11, GW may well have been a one-term-er, just like his father. He barely escaped losing to John freaking Kerry. In fact, he barely defeated Gore in 2000. So, just how wise is this new found Bush wisdom? I don't see much in the record to support it, short of the political calculations of some consultants concerned more with winning elections, than the nation's politics.
"I sat next to her once. Thought she was beautiful," Barbara Bush said. "And she's very happy in Alaska, and I hope she'll stay there."
Bush, along with her husband, former President George H.W. Bush, spoke to CNN's Larry King in an interview set to air Monday.
President Bush discussed the Tea Party movement, and although he said "some of the ideas make a lot of sense," he said he isn't sure how the new movement will fit into the larger political landscape.
Read my lips, the same can be said for the price of bread and broken tax pledges.
And as for Mona Charen's, Why Sarah Palin Shouldn't Run item at Townhall, congrats Mona, you finally found something to write about and make yourself relevant, again. I can't recall anything you've done in the last two years that's generated any real interest outside the usual Beltway set you write for. If Sarah Palin has a secret weapon, it's how distasteful and classless are so many of the GOP establishment types lined-up against her. If they were nearly as smart as they fancy themselves to be, they'd probably just shut-up and let the chips fall where they may.
Bar remembers the damage 3rd party candidates can do.
Besides, I never did like her husband. Too much of a milquetoast for my liking...
Mama Frizzly just wants her cub Jeb to have a shot at 2012. Darn it, it's his turn! /sarc
I just don't have any interest in the Bush family at this point.
Too many other things going on, events which threaten our liberty. Really they have nothing to do with the Bush family.
The Bushes, like them or hate them, are elitists, and yes, Barbara still wants to see her boy Jeb take his rightful place as president. He is, after all, the nice son who was groomed for it. How dare Palin or other non elitists threaten to take the White House away.
She's old, cut her some slack. Sheesh.
Pro-choice if I'm not mistaken.
Huh? Palin's no third-partyer.
That was clearly a scripted sequence, with Babs all ready to damn by insulting praise, then get the Alaska digs in, while 41 sat silent.
I voted for Bushes four times and I'll never vote for any more of them in my lifetime.
Isn't this the same lady that covered Republicans with glory during Katrina, when she thought the folks were better off in a shelter, or some such nonsense?
The entire Republican 'elite' establishment is dead-set against Sarah Palin because she isn't one of them, thank God. Those elitists abhor actual political conservatism and if anyone doubts this, look at the records of both Bush presidencies. Sarah Palin is proudly middle class; a practicing Christian and unabashedly conservative. This is anathema to RINOs like the mega-rich, Yale educated Bush family and those who hang with that crowd. Barbara Bush is just a rich old lady nattering about someone she doesn't know or understand. Her opinion is irrelevant.
BUSH/OBAMA other than rhetorical sales pitching, i see little difference in substantive action
Never in my wildest dreams did I think things would descend to this point, but I swear, the name "Bush" has just about become as nausea-inducing as the name "Clinton" to me.
I agree. With all due respect, shut up about this Barbara. It's the luke-warm, big government Republicans like your husband and son that contributed to the huge mess we are in today. If Palin wants to run more power to her. I hope we have a great field of candidates to choose from unlike 2008. I do know that I don't want Romney, Huckabee, and certainly not Jeb Bush. We've tried Bushes twice and you can count on them to always let you down.
Clinton is their adopted son you know. They have more praise for Bill Clinton than they do for a conservative. What does that tell you?
No to political dynasties, no to anybody who's for amnesty for illegal immigrants, and no to RINOS!
In his book, George W Bush relates that when he announced that he supported a Palestinian State but will not deal with their then leader the terrorist Yasser Arafat, his mother called him and sarcastically referred to him as "the first Jewish President".
George Bush the father, was hostile toward Israel. This story evidences proof - to anyone deaf and dumb- that both husband and wife share an elitist county club type anti-semitism.
I can't argue with anyone whose opinion is that Barbara Bush should shut the **** up.
That would be pretty selective memory, considering it was her husband's breaking of the central promise of his campaign to be President that led to a significant third party challenge in '92.
If he'd have read his own lips, Clinton would have been nothing more than a footnote in the books.
I wonder how many of us are on this page. Can we swing an election?
that's the main qualification to be a leader!
remember these are the politicians that are part of the problem as much as we liked them and elected them. it is a new day. often the old guard can't understand as they come from the reality that created or sustained the problems the new guard is going to fix.
The more Libs & Establishment/Ruling Class Republicans speak against Sarah Palin, the more I like her.
Yeah, Babs, spoken ike a true one worlder! Why don't you just stay in Kennybunkport? Your time is long over!
Listen, I'm glad Bush cut taxes, and fought the War on Terror...that's a good thing! He's also a decent man.
However, Bush did a great deal of harm to the Conservative Cause! He started this crap by accepting the Dems premise about conservatives when he coined the term: "Compassionate Conserative!" Speak for yourself Mr. Bush!
Sorry, but I have no plan to buy this open-boarder RINO's book!
I will never vote for another Bush!
OK. If the interviewer gets fired, as when Newt Gingrich's mom blurted something out, I'll agree with you.
She must be watching too much CNN and is just following the mantra to defeat good changes in govt. and change America back to what it was when her hubby was VP.
Maybe they are all getting scared of what might happen to their cush life if the fed goes broke and/or severe cutbacks in their monthly checks/security occur.
If it wasn't for Palin and Demint leading the charge, this election would not have been historic. Who knows what the future holds for either one of them. However, the army they are building grows stronger everyday. More Tea-Partiers and less Bushies is a good thing.
snicker.... sits beside the claim of 'NO NEW TAXES' mouth that got his backside handed to him by a now adopted 'son'.... These people need to come out of their gated houses.
Stay out duh Bushes.
And what damage did the Tea-Party do? None!. Without the Tea-Party, this election would not have been historic.
Regarding damage 3rd parties do. My advice would been not to ignore conservatives, like Bush did, and there won't BE A CREDIBLE THIRD PARTY.
FWIW, GHWBush & crew are the same wing of the party that opposed Ronald Reagan.
Jesse Jackson's words now apply!
I have no doubt those are Barbara's hopes.
Jeb Bush Won't Rule Out Run For White House
What she probably doesn't realize is that conservative voters aren't in the mood (to put it mildly) to elect yet another pro-open borders globlist.
I wasn't aware anyone cares what Barbara Bush says. She has a right to her opinion and Palin has a right to run, so telling her to shut up is what leftists do.
That about says it all!
Were that to happen, maybe it might be clearer to us that the Republican party has deep divisions right now. So what else is new? Which is why I STAY WORRIED, even after the putative GOP "victory" of November 2....
Republicans are ever dependable when it comes to "shooting themselves in their own foot." They are too busy arguing with each other, rather than unite and face a determined and implacable enemy....
The problem seems to be they don't know whether they are "fish or fowl" whether "big tent" or "principled."
BTW, it seems in certain quarters of the GOP establishment, any idea of "big tent" MUST exclude the Tea Party.... Which is rather ironic, because the nonpartisan Tea Party is principled by the ideas of ordered liberty as set forth in the U.S. Constitution ideas with which the GOP has historically associated itself, as articulated in its party platform.
So the GOP looks primed to shoot itself in the foot yet again....
I'm sure the Left Progressives out there who work overtime to undermine the American order at every opportunity are laughing up their sleeves at us constitutional conservatives.... Given the GOP's divided leadership, and lack of clarity on fundamental principles, they realize that we conservatives do not pose a very serious challenge to them, now or in the foreseeable future.
"I voted for Bushes four times and Ill never vote for any more of them in my lifetime."
and that, I fear, is exactly what millions of others might think.
Unless it comes down to him or O.
Yep, their fantasy big tent would include everyone except conservatives.
That's right. Like it or not, Jebby is her favorite and Bar is the original Mama Grizzly. LOL. Remember when she called Hitlery the 'b-word' on national television? Did we not love her then? She simply protects her men!!
You added a /sarc but I bet it's pretty close to the truth.
Very unfortunate. I would prefer to watch the left eat its own - not the right.
Most folks are seeing a pattern emanating from the less-than-conservative establishment Republicans. Barbara's comment matches this pattern.
Makes it less about a "little tacky" remark from an "old" person.
"Bar remembers the damage 3rd party candidates can do."
On the other hand, unless something changes, we can continue electing the CFR's New World Order types that dominate both traditional parties.
"We have the opportunity to forge for ourselves and for furture generations, a New World Order, a world where the rule of law, not the law of the jungle, governs the conduct of nations. When we are successful, and we will be, we have a real chance at this New World Order, an Order in which a credible United Nations can use it's peacekeeping role to fulfill the promise and vision of the U.N.'s founders." -GHWB
This whole crew including (and especialy) Karl "Tokyo" Rove are holding out for a Jeb Bush 2012 candidacy and that is ALL they care about—so they take cheap shots at Palin because she stands between Jeb and about 10 other candidates who are all unelectable and who he can beat.
The entire Bush family and all their sycophants need to go away now—grab a shovel and pitch in on building that library. They had their day, and now their day is over.
Don't go away mad, just go away—or WE will get mad.
Great point, she is pimping for Jeb-the-other Bush-socialist for President.
Jeb is probably not a wise idea for 2012 but he ought not be blamed for his windtunnel mama.
I thought that was Newt's mom. Or did they both say it?

Former deputy CIA Director Mike Morrell on Thursday said he's worried about the new threat of terrorists attacking airlines with shoe bombs.
"The fact that terrorists are coming back to shoes is also worrisome to me because it suggests that they may have found a way around the screening that is currently done on shoes, so that is a concern as well." Morrell works as a contributor to CBS News. He resigned from the CIA last June and had served as deputy director since 2010.
DHS officials told The Hill the warnings to airlines about shoe bombs were based on new intelligence, but they did not provide further details.
