Lot 269: 1816 Hand-Colored Engraving titled: Capture of La Pique
Presidential Election Auction - Early American History Auctions
by Early American
October 29, 2016
Rancho Santa Fe, CA, USA
Live Auction
War of 1812
1816 Hand-Colored Engraving "Capture of La Pique"
1816, Hand-Colored Engraving, "Capture of La Pique - Jany. 5th, 1795," "Published Sept, 1, 1816, at 48 Strand, for J. Jenkins' Naval Achievements," Printed by Whitcombe, Engraved by Sutherland, Choice Extremey Fine.
This original, colorful Engraved Print is meticulously detailed and richly Hand-tinted showing the HMS Blanche towing the captured French Frigate, La Pique, measures 13.5" x 10" on crisp heavy print paper.
The HMS Pique was a 38-gun fifth rate frigate of the Royal Navy. She had formerly served with the French Navy, initially as the Fleur-de-Lys, and later as the Pique. HMS Blanche captured her in 1795 in a battle that left the Blanche's commander, Captain Robert Faulknor, dead. HMS Pique was taken into service under her only British captain, David Milne, but served for just three years with the Royal Navy before being wrecked in an engagement with the French ship Seine in 1798. The Seine had been spotted heading for a French port and Pique and another British ship gave chase. All three ships ran aground after a long and hard-fought pursuit. The arrival of a third British ship ended French resistance, but while the Seine and Jason were both refloated, attempts to save Pique failed; she bilged and had to be abandoned.
This historic Engraving features extremely detailed figures of the two ships, and the hand-coloring is gorgeous and vibrant. A rare War of 1812 Military engraving, excellent for framing and display.

The Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) is the primary public convention center for the Central Florida region. The center currently ranks as the second largest convention center in the United States (the biggest is McCormick Place in Chicago). The OCCC offers 7,000,000 sq ft (650,000 m2) of total space, 2,100,000 sq ft (200,000 m2) of which is exhibit space. The large complex is located on the south end of International Drive, a major tourist area in Orlando, Florida. Solar panels on the roof of the South Concourse provide 1 MW of power. On April 18, 2012, the American Institute of Architects's Florida Chapter placed the building on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.[1]
Originally the Orange County Convention and Civic Center (OCCCC), it was an idea born out of a 1977 law passed by Florida's State Legislature that permits counties to collect a "Tourist Development Tax" on top of regular sales tax on hotel room stays, with the approval of the county's voters, for state-approved purposes. In April 1978 in a special election, the voters of Orange County approved a 2% Tourist Development Tax (the limit set by the state) for the purpose of building a Convention and Civic Center. That August, the Orange County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved a location for the OCCCC in Orlando Central Park, on International Drive, and drew up plans for a 325,000 sq ft (30,200 m2) gross area facility. In 1979, Orlando Central Park and the BCC came to a deal whereby the Orlando Central Park would donate land for the initial facility, and give the county an option on 45 acres (18 ha) additional for future expansion. Orlando Central Park agreed to commit adjacent lands for hotel and tourist development, with an incentive of one cent per taxed dollar of the TDT each year for 30 years.
Phase I was completed on February 25, 1983 at a cost of $54 million. The Boston Pops Orchestra played at the Grand Opening on February 26, 1983 and 14,000 people attended the Open House on February 27, 1983.[2]
In June 1984, the BCC exercised its 45-acre (18 ha) option for $2 million and began planning Phase II. The TDT was raised to 3% by a State Law in 1986, and groundbreaking occurred in February 1987 on Phase II. It was completed in January 1989, adding 150,000 sq ft (14,000 m2) of exhibition space to increase it to 344,790 sq ft (32,032 m2) of total exhibition space, and adding 100,000 sq ft (9,300 m2) of meeting and support space.
That very month, an additional 1% was permitted for the TDT, increasing it to 4% The BCC approved an additional three phases to the OCCCC (Phases IIA, III and IV), and improvements to the Citrus Bowl, its first non-Convention Center TDT project.
Phase IIA, completed in December 1990, added 100,000 sq ft (9,300 m2) more support space, used largely for office space and registration. The next month, planning for Phase III was begun. By December 1992, "Civic" was dropped from the name, and the area became the Orange County Convention Center.
Phase III was completed in January 1996, adding 383,400 sq ft (35,620 m2) of exhibition space, at a cost of $219.5 million. Phase IV followed that August at a cost of $198.7 million, adding another 367,200 sq ft (34,110 m2) of exhibition space and about 100,000 sq ft (9,300 m2) more meeting space. A retrofit of Phase I, completed in December 1997 at a cost of $32 million, opened up 8,200 sq ft (760 m2) more. By 1998, the OCCC had 1,103,538 sq ft (102,522.0 m2) of exhibition space over a total building space of over 4 million ft². Additionally LMG, Inc became the onsite provider for audiovisual services.
In June 1998, the BCC got a fifth cent approved for the TDT, partly for a grand Phase V, which would add a total of 3 million ft² of space to the OCCC. That December, they paid Universal Orlando Resort $69 million for 239 acres (97 ha) of land across International Drive from the original OCCC. The Martinez Convention Center Commission, named after then-Orange County chairman Mel Martinez, was created to oversee planning and construction of Phase V.
Ground broke on Phase V in August 2000 after a large convention organizer, Reed Exhibitions, agreed to move 42 conventions to Orlando into the new phase. It opened one month ahead of schedule in September 2003. Today, the first four phases are referred to as the "West Building", and Phase V is referred to as the "North/South Building", as it is divided into North and South Exhibition Halls which can be joined to form one large exhibition space or subdivided into six different halls (North A1, North A2, North B, South A1, South A2, South B). The North/South Building has over 1,100,000 sq ft (100,000 m2) of exhibition space. Around the same time, an elevated walkway was built over International Drive connecting the two buildings.
In 2004, OCCC acted as a staging area for relief operations following Hurricane Charley, and Frances and Jeanne thereafter. Disruptions to convention operations were minimal, and a feared reduction of convention booking did not occur afterward.
In 2009, the Hilton Orlando, a 1400 room luxury hotel, opened which adjoins with the South Concourse of the Orange County Convention Center's North/South Building via an elevated, covered pedestrian walkway. Expansions to the Peabody have been finished and connect directly to the Orange County Convention Center via the elevated pedestrian walkway as well. The elevated walkway currently connects the North, South and West concourses over International Drive to each other and the Hilton Orlando.[citation needed] Rosen Plaza and Rosen Centre, 800 and 1,334 guest rooms respectively, straddle the West Concourse and also have elevated, covered pedestrian bridges connecting them both to the OCCC as part of Orange County's master plan to improve connectivity and safety for convention-goers.
Facility Overview[edit]
The OCCC consists of two buildings joined together by a covered pedestrian sky-bridge. The West Building, opening in four phases from February 27, 1983[3] (with an initial 150,000 sq ft (14,000 m2) of exhibition space) and 1996, is located on the south side of International Drive. The North/South Building, located on the north side of International Drive, was completed in 2003.
In its entirety, the OCCC features:
- 2,100,000 square feet (200,000 m2) of exhibition space
- Two 92,000-square-foot (8,500 m2) general assembly areas
- 74 meeting rooms/235 breakouts
- The 2,643-seat Chapin Theater
- A 200-seat Lecture Hall
- The 62,000-square-foot (5,800 m2) multi-purpose Valencia Room
- Three full-service restaurants/8 food courts
- Three business centers
- In-house electric, plumbing, rigging and technical services, plus wireless mobility throughout the complex
- On-site parking for 6,227
- Three covered loading docks/173 truck bays
Economic Effect[edit]
On average, the OCCC hosts approximately one million delegates annually and provides a $1.9 billion total economic impact annually to the Central Florida economy, all at no cost to Orange County Citizens (OCCC is funded by a "tourist development tax" collected on hotel guests).[4]

At a meeting in Brussels tomorrow, European Community ministers will discuss the oilseeds deal that was reached after the US threatened retaliation if European countries did not agree to cut their subsidised production. The agreement was bitterly attacked by the French, who said they would use an arcane EC rule to veto it. The Germans and other EC members were determined to push it through with a vote, and only diplomacy by the Danes, who hold the EC presidency, avoided a showdown. The issue will not be brought to a vote tomorrow, and will not have to be settled until after the French elections at the end of the month.
The French government has thus avoided having to choose between using a veto, which would lead to a schism with the Germans and possibly a trade war with the US, and the politically suicidal acceptance of the oilseeds deal.
The confrontation may only have been postponed, however. The Socialist government is expected to be replaced by a right- wing one even more in awe of the agricultural lobby, and probably with a leader with his eye on the presidential elections of 1995. Gatt officials fear that it will be tempted to block the deal and bring the Uruguay Round to its knees. 'The man who succeeds in killing Gatt would be treated as a hero in France,' one said.
The process by which a veto of the deal could lead to collapse of the round is straightforward. The US administration would retaliate by introducing punitive tariffs similar to those threatened in November. The EC would retaliate in kind. Meanwhile Congress would refuse to allow negotiations on the round to continue without concessions that would fatally upset its delicate balance.
Even if the French do not use their veto, the Uruguay Round could still be killed by the Americans. The Gatt community was shocked by the emergence from Washington of a series of demands for changes to the text after the oilseeds deal had been signed.
'The Americans knew they had problems throughout 1992 but didn't want to think about them,' one diplomat said. 'I think they were hoping the changes they wanted would be swallowed when the agricultural deal was done, but they weren't'
The Americans said they would not accept the text on anti-dumping, that they objected to proposals to cut textile tariffs and that they wanted to keep their protection of domestic shipping. There are also pressures in Washington to renegotiate some of the fundamentals of the round, for example by adding an environmental element.
If neither the French nor the Americans throw a spanner into the works, the Uruguay Round will still take about a year to complete, officials believe. The original 'fast-track' authority to get the package through Congress expired last week, and President Bill Clinton is unlikely to ask for its extension until next month.
Congress will take about two months to approve this so negotiations are unlikely to restart until after the summer recess or to finish before the end of the year.

Paying for Good Grades
I want to celebrate!
Some people give their children cash for good grades.
This is the Good Grades = Money system.
I want to celebrate (reward?) her in some way, but money doesn't sit right with me.
She wants Sims 3 for the WII.
But, I think buying that for her would be the same as Good Grades = Money (in the form of a new "toy")
I want her to get good grades because she has the ability to do so and intrinsically wants to do well. Not because there is money or a new game waiting for her.
I've decided to:
1. Take her out to dinner to celebrate the successful completion of her first high school semester.
2. Pay 1/2 of the game just like I would any time.
What do you think about the Good Grades = Money debate?
7 comments:
We usually take the kids out for dinner to celebrate. It never occurred to me to pay the kids for good grades. I just assumed they would do their best without monetary incentive. So far it's working out well!
ReplyDeleteWow! This is indeed great news! If I would choose between the 2 options, I would prefer the first one which is to take the family out and celebrate. We usually watch a movie, eat together, and stroll in malls. In my opinion, rewarding your kid with cash or a new "toy" won't be a good idea because they will then do it for the reward instead and not for themselves.
ReplyDeleteI can't get behind the paying for grades (or anything else that falls into MY category of "supposed to"s.) You're supposed to get good grades, supposed to do your best, the thought of trying to do better simply because of a reward takes away from the valuable lesson in hard work. What happens when kids who always receive monetary incentives get into the real world? You have to then earn the money and having a sound foundation of hard work makes it easier. Did you know that many inner city school systems now have an internal program that does this -- pays the students for their grades? The idea was floated around in DC for a short time but thankfully was shot down. First, teaching our children starts at home. Being reliant upon the school to teach from a book and then reward our kids is just...wrong. At the same time, though, I do see how it works as an immediate incentive (in very poor communities), but I don't see its positive long term benefits.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! I didn't even know that some school have a money incentive for kids. I also wonder what this teaches kids in the long run! We want children to intrinsically want to do their best, but how do we teach that? It believe it comes from home.
When I was a teacher, I once complimented a student on his excellent poetry in front of his peers. I thought he'd be proud. But they teased him and he never did work in that class again. I realized sometimes it's not "cool" to get excellent grades. So now, I compliment students privately!This is a fantastic website, could you be interested in going through an interview concerning just how you made it? You can visit my site.

For Venice we found this accommodation relatively affordable and in a great location, walking distance to the rail, buses and main boat terminal. The manager was lovely and went out of her way to make sure our stay was comfortable. We also found the included breakfast at the cafe down stairs very good - pastry of your choice and a hot drink of your choice. Both delicious. All staff we friendly and helpful unlike mentioned in previous reviews. Rooms cleaned daily. Highly recommended.

The best thing about this place is the location. It's about 10 minutes walking from the piazzale Roma, where all the busses stop, also the ones from the airport, since no traffic can go in the city centre. To reach the hostel, you just need to cross one bridge. This is very convenient if you have a lot of heavy luggage. Venice is full of bridges and narrow streets and with a lot of luggage this can be quite tricky. The room was clean and had everything we needed

The soaring club's Schweizer training glider - in it I soloed and got my glider rating. In it I never soared with eagles, but flew ridge lift with hawks - even spooked and "chased" a deer on the ridge top. My last flight in 69R was a ride with a friend - a quick aero-tow to the ridge & back seeking lift, but not a bump; however, upon landing we learned of the excitement - there had been a earthquake while we were up-in-the-air. (Note: the earthquake epicenter was just NNE of the airport where the powers-that-be later put Jordanelle dam & reservoir - no fault was going to stop them.)
The soaring club also had a single-seat sailplane (Cherokee II RM) which tried to put the fear of flying in me. In a spin, a wing would suddenly drop, flip upside-down, then nose to ground, but neutralize controls and it would just as suddenly return to normal flight. Then there was once I went red-line airspeed in clear air turbulence - realization: I was more afraid of the parachute on my back (it simply served as the seat back cushion).

25th plus 10
Valentines Day 10 years ago was our 25th wedding anniversary. Previously Joelyn said she wanted to do something special for our 25th - celebration, vacation, etc.; I wasn't keen on the idea.
That Valentines Day morning, I took Joelyn to her regularly scheduled, on-going appointment with her oncologist who wasn't aware it was our anniversary. This was the day Dr Regina referred Joelyn to hospice ... mid-day hospice was at our house with a complete support system: scheduling nursing & an aide and a hospital bed & oxygen was delivered. That day was special, all right; especially since I still cannot believe I was married for 25 years.

life lately + libby james album winner
Just thought I'd catch you up on life as of late. If you follow me on instagram, this could be old news to you (but stick around anyway because I'm going to announce the libby james album giveaway winner at the end of this post!).
I recently made this apple dip and yes, it makes eating apples that much more tasty.
Since we moved back "home," we've definitely been enjoying spending lots of time with our friends that live here. I know this is just a picture of us two, but we went to a big birthday dinner last week for one of our friends and this is what I've got to show for it. Might be an awkward smirk and B looks like he has a shiny tooth, but it beats the creepy family photo/fake smile pic we took afterwards. We do what we can these days.
I've been craaaaving spring like no other. We had a "snow day" the other week, but it was still warm enough for me to wear my J. Crew ankle skinnies and Tory Burch Revas (sold out, but I loooove these.) And if you squint and do a quick glance, the fluffy rug kind of looks like snow. (Which is about as close as we got to the real stuff since we had no actual flurries)
I've been loving on the kitty boy...
...and on this turquoise door I spotted the other day. It's perfection.
It really has been pretty here.
Look, I even got Cajun Shrimp on my nails in celebration.
Celebrated with a drink at Halls with Ryan, too. (Any excuse to celebrate.)
Now, the giveaway winner!
Congrats, Tristan! If you didn't win, don't forget that you can still save 20% off your Libby James order with the code SWANKY20 until the end of February.

Actress Emma Watson has become a certified yoga instructor.
The "Harry Potter" star, who graduates from Brown University with a degree in English in May, is hoping to get back to some of her favorite hobbies this summer, and that might find her taking charge of fans' yoga sessions.
Talking about life after university in the new issue of Wonderland magazine, the 23-year-old says, "I feel like I have so much more to accomplish as an actress. I'd love to try theatre and that's a whole other thing.
"When I finish my degree, I will have a lot more time to pursue other passions, and I want to figure out what those will be.
"I love having something completely unrelated to the film industry. I want to find something that will let me use my brain in another way. I love painting, so maybe I (will) hone in on that and do more art classes? Or maybe something different. I'm a board two certified qualified yoga instructor."

Yup, reading the other news sources and the forums posts at AVS by native Chinese speakers confirm the original press release which all the articles wrote on is about HD-DVD. 藍光 also means "blue laser", so the press release basically said "blue laser HD DVD".
As nick2 pointed out, the press release also talks about using existing DVD manufacturing equipment to make these new HD-DVD players, something that's not possible for Blu-ray as it's completely different technology.
Another interesting bit in the press release is that the Chinese company's contract with Wal-Mart has a clause for an additional 4 million players to be produced in 2008 in addition to the original 2 million to be made this year that Wal-Mart can execute. So basically if the original 2 million HD-DVD players sell well, Wal-Mart can order an additional 4 million players from this company.

I use the PS3 as the hub of our home entertainment center, and it is used for Bd movies and music 3 to 1 over gaming. Everything in my home is Sony, and I will be so ****ed if they frack this up and let Walmart bring HD DVD to the masses.

Walmart is buying these at $50 a pop, they can choose a price anywhere from $99 to $299 and still make a killing. This is really a huge boost for HD DVD

Ummm... 6 million (or so) PS3's shipped. Sounds like Blu-ray has a "mass volume" player out there. But, yes, since Toshiba just announced that they have sold 100,000 HD DVD players, this would definitely be the first mass volume player for that format.
Like HD DVD fans who think that their format sells as many discs as Blu-ray (despite Nielson VideoScan data, or any other measurement methodology). Or HD DVD fans who believe that their individual purchasing power is so great that Disney and Fox will give up on their efforts to protect their discs with BD+ and release all their titles on the essentially security-broken HD DVD. Lot's of crazy beliefs on both sides.
As for the REAL issue here, does Walmart hold the same power over high-def consumer electronics gear as they do over diapers and motor oil? Not really. At least not in the same way. The THREAT posed by Walmart's $29.99 DVD players or $199-299 HD DVD players is such that manufacturers who make good products will have to lower their price to near the same level at other stores to seem competitive. This is different than in Walmart's other markets, where Walmart is usually selling the same item as their competitors.
I do think this player may sell decently well for Walmart (assuming it comes out around $200), but only to those who REALLY want HD DVD (or a second player), but are too cheap to buy a decent player. None of the casual Walmart shoppers are going to buy this. Given the complete lack of knowledgeable salespeople at Walmart, there will be no one to "sell" these things to customers in the store -- to explain why a Walmart electronics shopper would want to buy the $200-300 DVD player that is sitting next to a $20-30 DVD player (and likely by the same manufacturer). The current financial problems Walmart is facing, in large part to their shrinking consumer electronics marketshare, bears out this theory.
The expected cost of name brand HD DVD and Blu-ray players by the time these players hit should already put them within 2x the cost of the Walmart player. Given the new competition, those player prices will almost surely fall to be closer to 1.5x the cost of the Walmart player. This is great for cosumers -- much less so for the consumer electronics manufacturers who had hoped to make some decent profits off of HD optical disc players before they got pulled into a Walmart-led price war with cheap Chinese products. However, if Walmart can't get these players out by this holiday season, the game may be over for HD DVD anyway, by the time these hit the warehouse.
Even assuming the best case scenario for HD DVD and these players (ie. cheap and out by November), I don't personally think this will be able to change the gaining momentum of Blu-ray, but if it's able to breathe fresh life into HD DVD, then we could well be stuck with HD DVD as a secondary HD product for quite awhile into the future. I could write a diatribe on why this is bad for consumers, movie studios, and just about everyone except Microsoft (the only company to BENEFIT from an HD disc stalemate) and Toshiba, but I'll leave that to others. I'll just say I hope Walmart ends up eating these players as yet another loss in their attempt to get some marketshare in the HDTV consumer electronics realm.

This whole article is totally overblown and misconstrued, as usual. As several people have pointed, the original article says "Blue HD-DVD", not Blu-ray. It sounds like a Chinese made HD-DVD player since TDK is the other unmentioned partner. This isn't even news since the price is $300 in 2008 and the Toshiba A-2 HD-DVD is on sale sometimes for around that price now and usually with 3 or 5 free HD-DVD included. And as other people have pointed out, the first Chinese electronics knockoffs have been notoriously poor in quality and features. Ho-hum, another non-story becomes an Interweb Urban Legend.
04-21-2007 #32
No, that was an article about Panasonic selling a cheap Blu-ray PC burner for the Chinese market, around $300. Who knows why it is cheaper but there are a lot of factors like burn speed (maybe it is a 1X which would be horrendous), single layer and dual layer (the Sony is the only PC Blu-ray burner out right now that does dual layer), able to use BD-R and BD-RE (write-once and rewriteable media, the Sony does both, some of the others won't do rewriteable) and so on, so that it is in reality a very inferior drive which makes it so cheap in price comparison, not feature comparison.

Actually, it was Pioneer, and that was horribly misreported. Pioneer finally released their Blu-ray "combo" drive (which they have been showing at trade shows for awhile) -- by which they mean it will READ Blu-ray discs, and WRITE to DVD and CD discs. Since they mentioned that it would play back movies fro BD-R/RE, it got completely misstated iby most of the press as supporting writing to those formats as well.
In reality, it's a cheaper Blu-ray drive... for those that don't actually need to burn Blu-ray discs. Given the cost of the blanks, it's really not a bad choice for many at the moment. Unfortunately, it's not due out in these parts until late this summer at the earliest.

Yeah, LOL, it was Engadget that used the description Blu-ray combo burner/player. It is only a Blu-ray reader and a CD/DVD burner, and not very good at those.

Just checked wal-mart webpage. Under entertainment, movies, they have Blu-Ray and HD-DVD Titles, but no players.
2010 Record = 6-3
04-21-2007 #36
Judging by the Asda stores around where I stay (also Wallmart) They have more Blu Ray titles available for sale but have a tendancy to hide them behind HD DVD titles.
It's not like the merchandiser doesn't know the difference, but put it this way, it's indiitive of the type of person who will shop for electronics at ASDA/Wallmart. Most of them won't be all that savvy when it comes to anything like this.
They do have an interesting poster which states very clearly that if you want to watch an HD DVD you need an XBOX360 console(end of sentence) but if you want to watch a Blu Ray, you need a Blu Ray player! (doesn't mention PS3)
Spin or ignorance?

With its towering skyscrapers and modern skyline, from afar you would not guess Los Angeles is home to many Art Deco landmarks. However, once you enter downtown, get out of your car and look up, you will find that among the jewelry marts and lofts is a surprising amount of deco bones to the city. A couple of Saturdays ago, I went on an Art Deco walking tour offered by the Los Angeles Conservancy. For two hours I walked among these buildings and discovered sights I don't see outside of my car windows as I speed past.
Beginning in Pershing Square, we walked along the sidewalks
to discover about a dozen deco buildings hidden in plain sight.
Title Guarantee Building
One Bunker Hill – Originally the Southern California Edison Company Building. At one time it was completely lit around the exterior, as would have befit the home of an electric company. It is designed by the same architect who built the grand Royce Hall on the UCLA campus - a venue that offers arts programming year round.
Los Angeles Central Library
Pacmutual Center – Originally Parkinson & Bergstrom,these two buildings are actually interconnected - they were simply represent different stages and remodels in the life of the building.
James Oviatt Building – Home to the Cicada Club. It once was home to department store Alexander & Oviatt. You can see its interior here and here.
Western Jewelry Mart – Originally the William Fox Building. They don't allow photos in their lobby, as it is off of a jewelry store, but it is a pity as it has some lovely deco elements.
Los Angeles Jewelry Center – Originally the Sun Realty
Building, clad in green terra cotta.
Wholesale Jewelry Mart – Originally the Harris & Frank
Ninth & Broadway
Eastern Columbia Building - also with terra cotta tiles - a prominent Los Angeles landmark, especially if you can see the clock from up high.
The Conservancy offers this tour every Saturday. Visit their
website for this and other tour options and information on these sites.

Bring to a boil; reduce heat to low, cover and cook 2 1/2 hours or until water has evaporated. Add salt and continue cooking pork in its own juices until browned, stirring occasionally. Remove lime zest and garlic; drain off excess fat and adjust seasonings.
Place tortillas in a zip-top plastic bag and microwave on high for 1 minute. Carefully open bag, allowing steam to escape, and remove tortillas; wrap in a kitchen towel to keep warm.
To serve, place some cooked pork in the center of each tortilla; add pico de gallo, then fold both sides of tortilla to cover filling.
Makes 6 servings.

who do you think will play together on each line?
who are the odd men out that get traded/demoted/bought out?
obvioiusly there is no need for goalie to be listed
Sponsored Links |
My line combinations are predicated on certain things happening
If the Rangers keep Wolski:
If Wolski is bought out then:
Same D combinations
i have to lines i wouldnt mind seeing... the first i think will be given a shot to succeed before the second is tried
wolski - richards - gaborik
dubi - anisimov - cally
fedotanko - stepan - mza
rupp - boyle - prust
staal - girardi
mcdonough - sauer
erixon - eminger
dubi - richards - gaborik
fedotenko - anisimov - cally
wolski - stepan - mza
rupp - boyle - prust
staal - girardi
mcdonough - sauer
erixon - eminger
though the lines will more than likely change a lot as we have become accustomed to
I tend to agree with these lineups. This year's forward experiment will mainly be on the top line left wing position, and I believe Wolski and Fedotenko will be interchanged the most. In other words, I am anticipating our 2nd line to remain largely intact through the season, barring injuries.
The only area where I disagree with the above is the 6th defenseman spot. Eminger would be more than o.k. in that spot, yet, my guess is a prospect starts the season in that role, with Eminger serving as our 7th defenseman.
I honestly think our 2nd line is the one that can be tinkered with more than our 1st so I feel that even though a few guys may get a short shot at the first line that Dubinsky will be our first line winger only because that line is going to be expected to generate most of the offense and Dubi can add some defensive ability to that line. I expect Wolski to get first shot at 2nd line LW and after that either Fedotenko or Avery. Zuc's in my opinion starts the year in the minors, he's super skilled but too small and not near fast enough for his size. Our 3rd and 4th line can be switched as well.
Dubi Richards Gaborik
Wolski Anisimov Callahan
Avery Stepan Fedotenko
Rupp Boyle Prust
Staal Girardi
Erixon McDonagh
MDZ Sauer - Eminger(7th)
Since we all know how much Torts like to juggle who knows. But I agree with your top six, though i can see a bottom six of:
Stephan - Boyle - Fedo
Avery - Rupp - Prust
Not sure if they keep Step at C or convert him to wing. Also I'm I'm curious what Christian Thomas does in camp, if he makes the team it might mean the end of Avery. Either way, lets start this thing already!!
i agree with most of your lineups, and by that i mean i think christiensen is the odd man out in the rotation. will he be kept on the roster as the 13th forward or demoted to the whales you think?
my prediction for lineups:
its going to be interesting to see who will play the left wing with richards and gaborik. my guess is dubi but they might want him AA and cally to play together on the second line and put someone like wolski with the first two.
also looking forward to who will be the 6th defenseman. i see eminger as the 7th, with someone like mdz stepping up and getting the 6th spot in camp.

Erixon-Del Zotto.Eminger
Looking at these possible lines, we really need another scorer.
Everyone seems to forget that boyle, prust, and fedotanko line was our most consistent line all year! That line should stay intact.
If I was the coach id start the year like this
Rupp, christenson, r extra fowards. Mza should start the year in the minors. As for the last three spots on d will be shared by eminger del zotto and erixion. But we all know that what ever line starts the year will be changed time and time again
We have 3 possible defenseman ready to start the year in the NHL in Del Zotto, Paveltenko and Kundratek; with room for only one. Young, emerging, defenseman are not only always in demand, but are great value to a team's cap/personnel mix. Every team would love to have a guy like Sauer, for example, play at his level, AND at his cap hit for the next few years. Valentenko and Kundratek in particular may be that type of player --- it opens up options for the rest of the roster. I haven't heard one rumor, though, of a potential top line left wing being available for trade. Not that it cannot happen, but it would have to be something under the radar and a bit unexpected; and we'd have to give up something other than an emerging NHL defenseman.
All things considered, with Richards and, presumably, an improved Gaborik over last season, I think the Rangers can hold off on any further trades near-term, unless the trade is unique and too good to wait upon. Otherwise, we may be better served by waiting until the next trade deadline to help push the club forward going into the playoffs.
While i agree that our young dmen could be used as trade bait i disagree on the team needing another good forward. We are hoping and assuming that many of the guys who had career years will do that again or improve. Last year Dubi, Cally, AA, Boyle and Prust had their best years of their careers. What if they dont hit those numbers? We also Had MZA and Stepan step in and put up some pretty good numbers for rookies. It is possible the league figures them out or they have a sophmore slump like MDZ did. We are also hoping for bounce back years from Gabs and Wolski.
Basically what i am saying is if we took career averages for all the players we have we could be in trouble next year. We are counting a ton on our guys to either keep producing career years and get better or having bounce back years. Looking at this roster we could really be in much better shape if we traded some of our depth and got another impact player, preferably a scoring winger.
The fact we had some young players with their best years last season is a really good point. I guess I take it for granted their performance will get better, let alone not experience a setback with the added experience and a quality coaching staff; but that is definitely an assumption on my part.

Google's Android mobile operating system (OS) has become the world's leading smartphone platform in the fourth quarter of 2010, eclipsing Nokia's Symbian platform as smartphone sales continue to soar but Apple has the jump on mobile profits.
Android-based smartphones saw astronomical growth from the fourth quarter of 2009 to the fourth quarter of 2010. Shipments of Google's Android, OMS and Tapas platform variants grew by 615 percent to reach 32.9 million.
Shipments of Nokia's Symbian smartphones grew by 30 percent year-over-year to 31 million, says high tech market analyst Canalys in a January 31 report on the global smartphone market for the fourth quarter of 2010.
Shipments of Apple's iOS-based smartphones put the company in third place with a 16 percent market share and 16.2 million device shipments.
Despite Apple's third place position, market analyst Asymco shows Apple raking in almost 50 percent of the mobile (as opposed to the smartphone) industry's total profit in a series of graphs published on January 31.
Google may be applauding its Android platform for reaching this smartphone milestone, but Apple is meanwhile quietly rubbing its hands together in glee - no doubt happy in the knowledge that its current mobile profits are the envy of the rest of the mobile world.
An agreement with US carrier Verizon will see Apple launch a CDMA version of its iPhone 4 in February too, a move that forecasters predict will drastically augment Apple device shipments within the country.
"The US landscape will shift dramatically this coming year, as a result of the Verizon-Apple agreement," said Canalys analyst Tim Shepherd.
"Android was by far the largest smart phone platform in the US market in Q4 2010, with shipments of 12.1 million units - nearly three times those of RIM's BlackBerry devices."
Verizon is expected to "move its focus away from the Droid range" with the arrival of the iPhone, while the US market as a whole will shift away from launching carrier-exclusive deals.
The US currently reigns as the largest country market in terms of shipments says Canalys.
The smartphone market in the US is more then double the size of the Chinese smartphone market.
The Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region retains its position as the largest market for smartphone shipments with a year-on-year growth rate of 90 percent and fourth quarter shipments of 38.8 million.
Nokia still leads in EMEA and Asia Pacific but Research In Motion (RIM) has stolen Nokia's smartphone lead in Latin America (shipping more than a million more units than Nokia in the fourth quarter of 2010).
"2011 is set to be a highly competitive year with vendors looking to use new technology, such as dual-core processors, NFC and 3D displays, to differentiate their products and maintain value," said Canalys VP and principal analyst Chris Jones.

Theo Parrish proves once again why he's one of the top dogs in the Detroit scene. For Sound Signature number 41, Theo represents with two cuts that are equally deep as they are moving. "Feel Free To Be Who You Need To Be" works it out with jackin' percussion and an effected vocal hook that morphs from vocoder to synth melody over the course of the almost 10 minute track. This is the kind of jam to make the dedicated dancefloor citizens lose it to on the floor on the late night tip. "360@1:29on696" showcases Theo's organic production style - at the same time loose and free, while completely coherent, focused and uplifting. Listen and hear why many try and imitate this style.

I thought the same, but the added challenge and loot still keeps me hooked. I'm actually enjoying it as much as my first playthrough. I've got a siren on playthrough 1 that I need to level in order to keep up with a friend, but can't stop playing my commando in TVHM at the moment. Not usually one to bother with NG+ type things, especially with my horrific backlog. But this is all I really fancy playing at the moment. |

Released in time for the 2004 holiday season, this CD intends to offer a new look at the most-performed classical work in December of any given year: Handel's Messiah. Two kinds of listeners may be tempted to approach this album: those who are fond of the original composition and those who can't stand it anymore. The former will probably be more pleased than the latter, for the experimental computer artists invited to remix it have mostly opted for keeping the work highly recognizable. Tod Machover, R. Luke DuBois, Phil Kline, Paul Lansky, and even Nobukazu Takemura fragment, reorganize, and lightly treat sections of the original work, focusing mostly on the choral parts. They stick too close to home to offer something that would reach beyond a "seasonal music for the avant-garde inclined" tag (although Lansky's piece is exquisitely graceful). The real interest of this compilation resides in the contributions that go further, like Scanner's "Insulation Mix," which makes clever deconstructive use of the strings to create a brand new soothing piece, reminiscent in its approach and overall sound of his collaborative album with Jean-Paul Dessy, Play Along. Laetitia Sonami's "Overture on Ice" and Eve Beglarian's "Be/Hold" use isolated fragments of the original piece to construct abstract electronic works of striking yet uncertain beauty. As expected, Dälek's "Messiah [Deadverse Remix]" stands out like a wolf in a henhouse; the rappers' contribution matches the good average of their recorded outings to date, but marks quite a departure from the nine previous tracks on the album. These three pieces are all tucked at the end of the album, creating a dichotomy in the track list between the friendlier/blander first half and the more demanding/meaningful second half. In a few words, Messiah Remix is a good idea that yielded mixed results. – François Couture

Large volume metrology process models: a framework for integrating measurement with assembly planning

This paper describes a generic methodology dealing with the theoretical definition of metrology process models and their systematic integration with design evaluation and assembly planning. The research resulted in the specification of a novel, theoretical framework for the specification and generation of metrology process models, especially focusing on large volume, frameless metrology that is suitable for the verification of large and complex products. The process modelling framework has four generic sections that support early design evaluation, assembly process interface, set-up and deployment, and verification data management. Initial testing results, using aerospace products, demonstrated the effectiveness of the process modelling methods.

Here is my one and only picture of Christmas in AZ 2009!
Why no pictures? Well, my parents started "snowbirding" about 16 years ago and very little Christmas decor made it's way south. I guess it had something to do with their winter home being under 500 sq ft, something about storage space and 115 degree weather in the summer that melts candles left behind? Needless to say, we really lack in the Christmas Tree department. This year my Dad was being a bit humbug, but knowing I was coming for a few days, he pulled it together quite nicely. Except for the tree! Usually it's an inverted cardboard cone that is wrapped in green tinsel with a strand of mini lights poking through from the inside out. As we were getting ready for the annual Christmas eve get together, Dad pulls out the tree, but NO lights! Something about last year, light bulbs, masking tape?? Needless to say, I told him it was perfect just the way it was and I was sure Santa could find it during the night! Oh, this story and my lack of pictures......I took the cactus shot from the highway on the way to the airport when I realized I didn't have any pics to blog about, but then told my dad if I showed pictures of our tree, people from all over the world would be clamouring for information on where we got our spectacular tree this year. This put a smile on Dad's face, we both chuckled and continued on the drive to the airport.
This is what else I did, besides eat too much and relax a lot.
I'm using the back basting method of needle turn applique on this block. Not my favorite method. I think I will go back to my freezer paper method, but I'm going to try turning the edges with glue instead of thread basting. When I sat down to stitch, I found this needle turn too fussy, I'd like to get the corners and points right with the prep work, rather than trying to make them right with the applique stitches. But I LOVE this method for the bias stems, it's excellent for this part. The green leaves took me 20 minutes each to applique down and this was after all the prep work was done! One flower to trim, three flowers to applique and 4 yellow circles for the flower centers. This is one of many blocks in a 30's BOM that I am committed to finishing in 2010.
These two blocks are from an alphabet sampler. I chose to do redwork for the blocks and I'm only doing three blocks. I'll work them into a wall hanging with a variety of pieced blocks. Goal - Christmas 2010!
I'm about 1/2 way through and LOVING this book.
So this sums up my Christmas, now it's back to work, back to life as we know it!
Set some stitching goals for 2010, I know I will.

- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 0 out of 2

Each of the titles in the package are playable and fun in their own way, but none will ever be anything more than passable on the review scale.
With only one game out of the five on offer being anything more than average, we really couldn't recommend this as a worthwhile purchase at full price. It's worth grabbing from the bargain bin for Block Breaker Deluxe alone, though.

From Senior Bush's Second Year in Office comes this thoroughly traditional .38 Military and Police Stainless, the Model 64, fifth engineering change. Serial number prefix is BFT, late 1990 production. Metal surfaces exhibit holster buffing, contact scouring, and some polishing. Matte finish atop frame and barrel is near full strength original matte finish. There are perhaps two dozen tiny pecks here and there along the sides of the barrel, left side of frame, and mostly on the side plate. Yoke screw shows minimal stress from annual armorer servicing. Finishwise, we rate this 64 as Very Good, 75 to 80 percent of its original finish intact. Photos, however, should suffice for interested parties to judge finish grade for themselves. Note the classic, highly desirable satin stainless hammer and trigger, and their excellent condition. Grips are new replacement Hogue K-Square Combat Conversion grips, but Hogues are period appropriate for the decade of production. This 64-5 is Excellent mechanically. Double action trigger pull is smooth and consistent, and the hammer travels a full, exceptional 15 degrees after the cylinder times on all six positions in double action. On single action, the hammer travels an additional 30 degrees on all six after the cylinder times into place. Single action trigger pull is a tight but crisp 4 3/4 pounds. Lateral play to the cylinder is minimal, less than 1mm total movement by our estimate, both with the trigger relaxed and with the trigger pulled all the way. Blast effect to the under side of the frame top strap directly above the barrel's forcing cone is minimal, a shallow crease that traverses about half the width of the top strap. This revolver has had very few if any +P rounds fired in it. Cylinder face to forcing cone gap is a respectable .008, and this is further indication that any significant amount of +P rounds have gone through this 64. This 19 year old service revolver has been well maintained and sparingly used during its career, and it is eminently serviceable for civilian or security use. We are even including a period correct left hand holster from the North Carolina Department of Corrections. We're offering this very nice S&W .38 Special Military & Police Stainless 64-5 for only $ 319.95 Not transferable to civilians in California, D.C., or Massachusetts. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Handguns: $15 flat fee shipping to the lower 48 states; $20 to Alaska, Hawaii or Puerto Rico.
