This or That: What's the difference between our Eucalyptus essential oils?
Out of the 700 plus species of Eucalyptus found in Australia alone, Edens Garden offers two of the most popular in aromatherapy (with one more on the way!). It's an oil that's popular for a variety of reasons- one reason being its aroma. Even those who've never heard the name Eucalyptus may be familiar with its sharp, medicinal aroma, made popular by known vapor rub and cold salve brands. Like most oils we offer a variety of, we started out with only one type of Eucalyptus oil, but decided to offer more of a selection as we fell more and more in love with this captivating oil. So how do you choose just one?
Benefits of Eucalyptus
Unlike most varieties of oils we carry, the therapeutic benefits of Eucalyptus Globulus and Eucalyptus Radiata are quite similar. Both oils are high in 1,8- cineole, with varying monoterpenes. For example, our current batch of Eucalyptus Globulus is high in 1,8- cineole, with significant amounts limonene, whereas Eucalyptus Radiata is high in 1,8- cineole with significant amounts of terpineol.
These constituents lend our Eucalyptus oils to being excellent at healing and repairing respiratory issues such as congestion, bronchial asthma, respiratory infection, and shortness of breath. Eucalyptus should be your go to defense during cold and flu season, not only for its effectiveness in healing respiratory issues, but also for its ability to prevent these common ailments. The 1,8- cineole leads Eucalyptus oil to act as a powerful astringent, as well as a successful oily skin and acne reducer. What's more, this oil is a potent reliever of muscle aches, pains, and inflammation. And to top it off, the cool and refreshing aroma of Eucalyptus has been known to boost energy and relieve sinus headaches.
What's the difference?
The difference in our Eucalyptus oils really comes down to their aromas. We had numerous requests from customers wanting Eucalyptus Radiata for its aroma alone, and being lovers of the clean, classic scent of Eucalyptus, we simply could not resist but to offer this variety along with Eucalyptus Globulus, which we had originally been offering.
Eucalyptus Globulus is generally the most popular of the Eucalyptus oils in aromatherapy because of its high cineole content and traditional Eucalyptus aroma. Its aroma is strong, sharp, medicinal and fresh with green, almost sour notes. Those seeking a well-known, traditional Eucalyptus scent will not be disappointed with Eucalyptus Globulus.
Those searching for a Eucalyptus with a softer punch may be partial to Eucalyptus Radiata. Generally, Eucalyptus Radiata has less 1,8- cineole, making it less aggressive in therapeutic benefits. Its aroma is sweeter, fruity, with citrus notes, but still true to the classic aroma of Eucalyptus. Its an oil with more pop then zing, and we love it for this reason and all of its many complexities.
For those who've tried our Eucalyptus', what's your preference? Let us know in the comments section below!

Tens of thousands of eftpos transactions were declined during a service blackout across New Zealand tonight.
Paymark is responsible for eftpos in New Zealand and its spokesman, Paul Whiston, says the outage occurred because a switch which fields transactions failed at about 6.20pm.
The company processes more than 75 per cent of all electronic transactions. Mr Whiston said about half of their customers would have been affected by the blackout.
"On your average Thursday night, with people shopping and buying pizza I'd guess we'd process 60 or 70 transactions a second," Mr Whiston said.
He said he was uncertain how many business were affected, but it did not impact every customer.
Mr Whiston said the company was working to establish what caused the switch to blow and that the extent of the blackout should be known by this afternoon.
He said he could not comment about whether companies would be reimbursed for the business they lost during the outage.
The eftpos breakdown affected The Hobbit film crew in Wellington who bought 70 pizzas from Hell Pizza Strathmore during the blackout.
Staff member Ben Casbolt said the runner who was sent to collect the pizzas was forced to pay in cash.
"They come in here quite a bit, we've got a deal with them. That was maybe the fourth or fifth time they've bought from us," he said.
The New Brew Tavern in Albany, Auckland, also experienced the 30-minute blackout and had to ask their customers to use cash or to sign for their purchase because those transactions do not register until midnight.
"It was a bit of a hassle, but we've had this sort of thing before," manager Tina Cronin said.
"We just had to explain to people what happened and they were okay with it."
* Paymark is responsible for 75 per cent of eftpos transactions in New Zealand.
* An average Thursday night has 60 or 70 transactions a second.
* On Christmas Eve there were 120 transactions a second.
* Last year, Kiwis spent $49.34 on average per transaction.

Stoutly defending the gag order on publication of gang rape proceedings, the police on Wednesday told the Delhi High Court that even if the court had not made the trial in-camera, the force was within its rights to ban reporting.
The police said an FIR can be lodged against anyone violating the ban.
"In respect of advisory (denying permission to cover the proceedings) it is submitted that there is no illegality in respect of Section 327 CrPC (Criminal Procedure Code) as the said provision shall be held to be mandatory that it to say applicable even if there is no specific order in that regard by the court," said the police affidavit.
"The advisory was a courtesy as a violation would necessarily require the police to register an FIR under Section 228A of the IPC (Indian Penal Code)," said the affidavit filed by DCP (south) Chhaya Sharma.
While Section 228A makes disclosure of victim's name an offence, under Section 327 of CrPC, a rape trial can be made in-camera.
Meanwhile, the court, which is hearing a petition filed by a group of journalists challenging the ban imposed by the magistrate court and later upheld by a sessions judge, said it would examine the larger issue of rights of the media and the extent to which public and the media could be allowed to be present at a rape trial.
"We will examine the issue and work on some methodology on how to allow reporting and at the same time protect the interest of the victim, her family and also of the accused," Justice Rajiv Shakdher said.
The court, however, refused to grant any immediate relief to the journalists.

There's nothing complicated about it, Avril and BSB make a perfect stage combo! The boy band announced on March 12 that they were extending their 'In a World Like This' tour, and adding Avril Lavigne — and I couldn't think of a better pair up!
The Backstreet Boys don't need another act to join them to sell tickets — and neither does Avril Lavigne! However, the fact that they're joining together for the North American tour will bring happiness to so many — because if you were too young for BSB, you weren't too young for Avril!
Avril Lavigne & Backstreet Boys Tour Will Be Amazing
BSB put out four albums between 1996 and 2000, before taking a hiatus. In those four albums, their fan base grew tremendously, and their hits piled up. From "Everybody (Backstreet's Back)" and "As Long As You Love Me" to "I Want It That Way" and "Larger than Life," they produced hit after hit after hit.
However, come 2002 and a new artist rose to fame — 17-year-old Avril Lavigne with an adorable punk rock song "Sk8er Boi," followed by the dramatic "Complicated."
The fans immediately went crazy — and that was just the start. Her fame only grew. While she showed her rock side always existed, she also took on emotional ballads like "I'm With You," Nobody's Home" and "Keep Holding On."
Avril Knows About Boy Bands
Basically, with their style completely different — from looks to sounds to fans — it will bring double the crowd. While she's a bit younger, she's also married to a musician so is used to being on tour with bands.
She's married to Chad Kroeger of Nickleback and used to be married to Sum 41's Deryck Whibley, so being around a boy band and their crazy fans shouldn't be a problem for her at all.
So, maybe I'm a little bias — I've seen BSB many times and have wanted to see Avril forever. Plus, I can totally see a "Girlfriend"/"The Call" mashup happening. HollywoodLifers, do you agree — will you go see the tour?

A strange thing happens 10 minutes into my interview with Lars von Trier. I am sitting in an armchair in his office, a spacious cabin on the edge of his sprawling Zentropa studio complex. Von Trier is sitting opposite me on a couch. He is talking about his latest film, Antichrist, which he began during a bout of debilitating depression.
"There was no pleasure in doing this film," he says, "I made myself write 10 pages of script every day. The only way to get out of bed was to make this decision and stick to it. When it came to filming, I was not mentally capable to hold the camera and shoot. I was helpless like an old man in a wheelchair. It was a humiliating way to work."
As he talks, von Trier shakes off his shoes, lies on the couch and closes his eyes. I sit and take notes. It all feels very strange: the interview as therapy session. Von Trier, though, seems perfectly relaxed. It is only when I begin questioning him about the sadistic horrors that he visits on the audience in Antichrist - a penis spurting blood, a graphic depiction of female genital self-mutilation - that he suddenly sits up straight again and looks uncomfortable.
"This does not feel good," he says. "There are some things it is not good to explain or analyse. And, also, my explanations are always banal and stupid."
This sounds suspiciously like a cop-out from a man dedicated to the breaking of cinematic taboos. Von Trier was, after all, the first film-maker outside hardcore porn to show full penetrative sex.
In Antichrist he does it again, this time in slow-motion close-up, during the poetic bout of marital sexual intercourse that begins the film. The abandoned lovemaking is intercut with a scene of the couple's infant son falling to his death from an upstairs window, all played out to a heartbreakingly sad aria from Handel.
I can think of no other director working today who could pull off such a bravura - and disturbing - opening sequence.
Even that scene, though, does not prepare you for the scenes of graphic Ballardian sexual violence that follow. I tell von Trier that, having sat through his film, I was genuinely worried not about Charlotte Gainsbourg's character's mental health but his own. He, of course, finds this funny.
"You're right to worry," he says, laughing, "but it is not good to worry about something you cannot do anything about. Truthfully, I can only say I was driven to make the film, that these images came to me and I did not question them. My only defence is: 'Forgive me, for I know not what I do'."
This precipitates a bout of giggling. "I am really the wrong person to ask what the film means or why it is as it is," he says finally, "It is a bit like asking the chicken about the chicken soup."
Lars von Trier is one of life's great gigglers. This, among other things, surprises me. I have come to Copenhagen to interrogate contemporary cinema's brooding, depressive, misanthropic maverick but he keeps metamorphosing into a naughty schoolboy. There is something infectious about his sudden outbreaks of jollity.
You can see why the staff who wander the Zentropa grounds and populate the huts of this old army camp seem both reverent towards him and protective of him. Though he has a reputation as a bully, he comes across as childlike and oddly vulnerable.
Like David Lynch, whose cinematic presence is palpable in the early, eerie scenes in Antichrist, one of von Trier's singular gifts is that he can convince actors to do things they would never dream of doing for anyone else.
Nicole Kidman, Hollywood's reigning ice maiden, spent what seemed like hours dragging a dead weight around the Brechtian set of Dogville.
In Antichrist, there are only two characters: Charlotte Gainsbourg's "She", driven to the point of violent derangement by her grief for her dead child, and Willem Dafoe's "He", her infuriatingly rational psychoanalyst husband. Both possess that strange, slightly detached intensity that has always made me wonder if, in fact, they are simply bad actors.
In a strange way, though, this works in the film's favour. Antichrist is so disturbingly bonkers, you wonder if their woodenness is all part of von Trier's deranged masterplan. Be warned, though, the violence is relentless and nasty.
Antichrist will certainly do nothing to dispel the notion that von Trier is a misogynist, though Gainsbourg, for one, thinks this reading is too simplistic.
"I really trusted him," she said recently. "That's also why I find it unjust when people say he hates women. I really have the impression that I was playing him, that he was the woman, that he was going through that misery, the physical condition, the panic attacks."
This may be nearer the mark. Von Trier is, as he gleefully admits, a slave to his anxieties, his myriad neuroses. He won't fly and famously travels from Copenhagen to the Cannes Film Festival by camper van. He tries to exorcise his demons through his films, though Antichrist, interestingly, brought him neither peace nor catharsis. "It was," he says, "a kind of hell."
He describes it, in a phrase borrowed from his hero, the Swedish dramatist (and misogynist), August Strindberg, as his "inferno crisis". He also insists it is "the most important film of my entire career", a view not altogether shared by critics at Cannes, many of whom hissed and booed their way though the festival screening, though Gainsbourg emerged from the festival with the best actress prize.
Was he hurt, though, by the chorus of outrage at Cannes? "No. But what hurts me is when people carry on during the screening with their negativity and mocking laughter. Yes, this hurts. For sure." He lapses into silence again and I notice that his hands seem to have a permanent tremble. "No matter how ridiculous it might seem," he continues, "the film, like all my work, is made from what I would call a pure heart. I am not ever trying to, as you say in England, take the piss."
Nevertheless, von Trier's talent to provoke seems as effortless as it is extreme. He made his name with the austere and emotionally draining Breaking the Waves (1996), the first part of what he called the Golden Heart Trilogy, in which "good women are overwhelmed by a bad world". To many of his detractors, though, the essential problem with the trilogy was the fact that the female actors were overwhelmed - emotionally and physically - by von Trier's directorial cruelty.
The accusations of misogyny began in earnest with i(2000), a warped musical that starred Bjork as a blind simpleton-come-saint. During filming, she was reportedly driven to the edge of her sanity by von Trier's bullying, and, at one point attempted to eat her costume in protest - which, ironically, is exactly the kind of overwrought scene one might see in a von Trier film. Bjork later accused him of "emotional pornography". He giggles when I remind him.
By the time Dogville came out, von Trier's so-called misogyny was almost overlooked in the chorus of outrage that greeted his supposed anti-American stance. Like The Idiots, it is a hard film to watch in one sitting.
Kidman's character, Grace, on the run from her gangster father, is initially given shelter by the good folk of Dogville, then exploited - first as an unpaid menial worker, then as a sex slave. She is fitted with an iron neck brace and bell, and shackled to a dead weight.
Dogville is protracted and unwieldy but, like all von Trier's films, it is not without its moments. "One of my techniques," he says, "is to defend an idea or a view that is not mine. So, for instance, it could be that I make a film about the human side of Hitler. That would be very interesting to me."
I tell him that I can't wait. He nods, either ignoring, or not registering, my sarcasm. "I mean, to try to defend Hitler's actions," he says, excitedly, "this is a difficult one even for me." When the giggles have subsided, I ask him if, underneath all the provocation and liberal-baiting, he is, in fact, a political film-maker. "Perhaps. You know, I really do have some morals. I do actually care about people. And I do have a political standpoint."
Nevertheless, the distance between Lars von Trier's intentions and his finished films often seems huge, no more so than with Antichrist. It starts off as a creepily Lynchian meditation on the destabilising power of grief, flirts with the tropes of the Nordic fairytale, the occult mystery and the horror film, throws in a pretty basic critique of psychoanalysis for good measure, and then suddenly, bafflingly, sails way too close for comfort to the relentless and deadening torture porn of genre films such as Saw and Hotel - which, incidentally, he claims not to have seen.
As if to bait his detractors even more, he then has the nerve to dedicate this bemusing, deranged but somehow brilliant mess of a film to the memory of Andrei Tarkovsky, the great Soviet director, whose film, Mirror, von Trier cites as his single most informative influence.
At one point when I ask him who, apart from Tarkovsky, are his prime influences, he says, "Mum and Dad." Then, giggling, he adds, "Thank God they are dead."
It's shocking, funny and sad all at once - more so when he talks about how he found out from his mother on her deathbed that the man who raised him was not his biological father. "This," he says, quietly, "is a bombshell that is still exploding."
I sit and brave out the silence that ensues, like the good therapist I have fleetingly, surreally, become. "What was really unsatisfying, though, is that I could not talk to the guy who was not my real father but whom I had spent my whole childhood with because he was already dead and gone," he continues, shaking his head. "And then, of course, I am in a big excited state to make contact with my biological family but, when I do that, it is like a foreign family. You do not really get close." He says, sighing. "It is all very badly unfinished."
It is not hard to see where Lars von Trier's confusions - his anger, pain and undiminished desire to provoke - come from. He is one of the walking wounded, forever trying to expose, and somehow exorcise, his deepest anxieties, through the mad, and often brilliant, bad films he makes.
As I am leaving, he says, "There is this one very funny line in a Meryl Streep film where one of her girlfriends says, 'My mother is dead'. And she replies, 'Hey, that's tough, but you will be so much happier later'. I always feel a little bit like that."
So, he does sometimes feel happy, then? "I would not go that far," he says, giggling.

WILMINGTON, NC (UNCW) -– UNCW infielder Steven Linkous and lefthanded pitcher Mat Batts were named Colonial Athletic Association Co-Player and Pitcher-of-the-Week, respectively, following UNCW's two-game sweep of Towson last weekend.
Linkous fueled the Seahawks from the bottom of the order, hitting .778 last week, going 7-for-9 in three games. Against Towson, he was 7-for-8 (.875) with two doubles, four runs scored and four knocked in. He posted a 1.000 slugging percentage while setting a career-high with three RBI's in the opener against Towson and tying his career-high with four hits in the series finale. Since moving into the starting lineup during the Hofstra series, Linkous is hitting a smoldering .579 (11-for-19), slugging .684 and getting on base at a .619 clip.
Batts improved to 3-0 in the league after limiting Towson to two hits and an unearned run over eight innings in the series opening win for the Seahawks. Batts didn't allow a hit after the second inning and retired 17 of the final 18 hitters he faced. He struck out four to move into second on the NCAA's active strikeout leader list with 304. Batts ranks fourth on UNCW's all-time list with 277. The senior from Winston-Salem, N.C., has now won or shared the award two other times prior to this week. UNCW also has had Nick Monroe and Ryan Foster earned CAA pitching honors this season.
The Seahawks return to action with the first of two mid-week games on Tuesday when future CAA rival Elon visits Brooks Field for a 6 p.m. start. UNCW then visits NC State on Wednesday, also a 6 p.m. start, before visiting Delaware in a key conference series in Newark.
CHAPEL HILL (NCHSAA) — Meg Keeter Fletcher of West Brunswick High School and Alexander Bruce White of Maiden High School have been named the recipients of the ninth annual Clary Medals awarded by the North Carolina High School Athletic Association.
The two outstanding student-athletes will be recognized at the NCHSAA's Annual Meeting on Thursday, May 1, at the Dean E. Smith Center on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
The Clary Medal is made possible through the generosity of the Eddie and Jo Allison Smith Family Foundation through the NCHSAA Endowment. It annually recognizes an outstanding male and female student-athlete, who will each receive a $2,000 scholarship to further his or her education at the college level.
To be eligible for the award, a student must be a senior at an NCHSAA member school, participate on at least two athletic teams, maintain at least a 3.2 cumulative grade point average on a 4.0 scale, and demonstrate excellence in athletic participation, extra-curricular activities and community service.
Fletcher has been an excellent athlete at West Brunswick, competing in varsity swimming, soccer and outdoor track.

WILLIAMBSBURG, VA (UNCW) — Eleven proved to be a lucky number, indeed, for the UNCW women's tennis team.
The No. 1-seeded Seahawks won their 11th straight match and it couldn't have been any more dramatic as Coach Evan Clark's team edged No. 2 seed College of Charleston, 4-3, to capture their first Colonial Athletic Association Women's Tennis Championship late Sunday at William & Mary's Millie West Tennis Facility.
UNCW extended its record to 17-3 overall and finished a perfect 7-0 in the CAA with Sunday's thrilling win. The Seahawks downed No. 8 Hofstra, No. 4 James Madison and No. 2 CofC in succession en route to the championship.
The Seahawks made their first appearance in the CAA finals last spring and were determined to take advantage of this year's return trip. With the match knotted at 3-all, it all came down to the No. 1 singles match, where 2014 CAA Player-of-the-Year Angie Sekely delivered a 7-6 (1), 6-3 victory against Kelly Kamboourelis to secure the school's first conference women's title.
"It was a special day for a special group of players," said second-year Head Coach Evan Clark. "We talked last night about finding a way to win. It was a tight match and we just found a way. Give credit to the College of Charleston for playing a tough match.
"It makes it even more special to be the first team in the school's history to win the conference women's tennis championship. I was fortunate to inherit a great group and we added on to it. It's a nice feeling to get that first one."
Charleston grabbed a 1-0 advantage in the match by taking two of the three doubles matches for the early point. It was only the third time this season the Seahawks dropped the doubles point.
UNCW's No. 3 team of Kelly Cameron and Miller Hales remained unbeaten by blanking Brooke McAmis and Grace Baker, 8-0, for their 13th win of the season without a loss. But Charleston bounced back with wins at No. 1 and No. 2 doubles to grab the momentum.
"It's always nice to win the doubles point," Clark reflected, "but we didn't push the panic button. There were still six points out there. Charleston played great in doubles, but you have to give credit to our team for finding a way in singles."
The Cougars increased the margin to 2-0 in singles when Mara Arygriou won in straight sets over UNCW freshman Annika Sillanpaa, 6-4, 6-1, at the No. 3 position. Senior Olga Blank then got the Seahawks on the board with a 6-2, 6-1 triumph over McAmis at No. 2 singles to slice the lead to 2-1.
UNCW pulled even on the next match off the court when junior Alyssa Ritchie downed Samantha Maddox, 6-4, 6-1, at No. 4 singles and then jumped ahead, 3-2, on a 7-6 (4), 6-2 decision by Cameron at No. 6 singles over Jenny Falcone.
Charleston bounced back to tie the score at 3-all, however, on a 6-4, 6-4 victory by Katherine Schofield against Christine Kharkevitch at No. 5 singles, setting up the decisive match at No. 1 singles.

WILLIAMSBURG, VA – Displaying the dominance that has been prevalent during their current nine-match winning streak, UNCW won its fourth Colonial Athletic Association men's tennis championship with a 4-0 victory over the College of Charleston early Sunday at William & Mary's Millie West Tennis Facility.
The 46th-ranked and top-seeded Seahawks earned the CAA's automatic berth to the NCAA Tournament and pushed their record to 15-6 on the season. The College of Charleston, rated 66th by the ITA, was making its first appearance in the tourney and owns an 18-6 record.
The shutout gave the Seahawks back-to-back titles and their fourth CAA crown in six years. UNCW has now won the men's championship in 2009, 2011, 2013 and 2014.
UNCW successfully defended its title Sunday with the same recipe it has used over the last month. The Seahawks have shut out three of their last four opponents and improved to 6-4 against nationally-ranked teams with Sunday's convincing win over the Cougars.
The Seahawks took control of the CAA final early by claiming the doubles point behind the No. 1 and No. 2 tandems. The No. 2 team of Pedro Mol and Kaue Pereira dominated Rodrigo Encinas and Crescente Lesser, 8-2, to be the first off the court and CAA Player-of-the-Year Rafael Aita paired with Sam Williams for an 8-5 decision against Brice Allanic and Alon Faiman to secure the point.
In singles, Aita, ranked 48th, crushed Allanic, 6-2, 6-1, at the top of the lineup to give the Seahawks a 2-0 advantage and Pereira increased the margin to 3-0 with a 6-1, 6-4 triumph over Zack Lewis at the No. 4 position. Sophomore Santtu Leskinen then delivered the championship clincher with a 6-1, 6-2 pounding of Charlie Ghriskey at No. 5 singles.
Aita took over sole possession of No. 2 on UNCW's all-time singles wins list, passing former great John Shackelford. The Lima, Peru, product has compiled a 63-17 record over the last four seasons, second only to Kinshuk Sharma (2007-11) at 65-24.
The UNCW men, who have been ranked as high as No. 44 this spring, now wait for the pairings for the NCAA Regionals. The Seahawks went 1-1 in the NCAA's last May, upsetting No. 18 South Carolina before losing to No. 9 Duke in the Durham Regional.

Concealed weapon bill ready for NC House floor
Bill would allow permit holders to have guns on college campuses
NORTH CAROLINA - Greenville Police arrested two men on gun charges near the East Carolina University campus early Sunday morning.
They say they arrested 21-year-old Timothy Terell Jones and 22-year-old Jarret Jarmal Gray after a traffic stop Sunday morning. According to officers, the men were circling South Summit and East 3rd Streets when the stop was made.
Police said they searched the suspects' car and found a .22 caliber pistol. The passenger, Gray, is a convicted felon, officers said.
GPD says they've stepped up patrols after a string of ECU students being robbed.
On campus safety is a priority for students. "I just try to stay in my dorm after, pretty much after twelve," said ECU Freshman Josh Croom, "try not to go out late at night, especially by myself."
It's also a concern for lawmakers. Monday, the North Carolina House was scheduled to debate a bill that would allow concealed weapons permit holders to have a firearm locked in the trunk of their car on college campuses. Those for the bill say it would serve as a crime deterrent.
ECU students aren't sure if it would make them safer. "I feel like it would make me worry more," said Croom. Fellow ECU Freshman Michael Biello said he thinks if the bill is passed, guns on campus need to be closely monitored. "It should be very hard to obtain and very easy to lose. You know, it shouldn't be something that's taken lightly," said Biello.
"I know it's a weapon of defense but I don't think people should have it. Because it can cause, I think it can cause more disruption," said Molly Cahill, also an ECU Freshman.
The bill would pertain to all public colleges in North Carolina, including community colleges.
It would also allow gun permit holders to bring guns into restaurants that serve alcohol. It would also strengthen penalties for gun-related crimes.
Some North Carolina lawmakers want to give concealed weapon permit holders more places to carry or store their pistols.
The House scheduled debate Monday on a Republican-backed measure that's endorsed by gun-rights groups but opposed strongly by university leaders.
Some provisions would allow concealed weapon permit-holders the ability to store a gun in a locked car on a University of North Carolina or community college campus. Boosters say the weapons will serve as a crime deterrent. UNC President Tom Ross says the provision would only increase safety risks.
The proposal also would let permit holders arm themselves in a restaurant where alcohol is served unless the establishment expressly prohibits concealed weapons.
The bill also includes longer penalties for gun-related crimes.

I like that one too. Somewhere on this thread I posted a pic of my 15 clone made by Brother and badged Compac. It is probably a bit older than yours because it has the "old Singer" silhouette. I love the color though - a semi-metallic aqua. It sews a great straight stitch and is quieter than my FW.
Yep!! I have heard zippers louder then this machine! And so fast...it is my go-to chain stitching machine. Love it!!
Do you know what page yours is on...I would love to see it!
I just remembered the 15 clone thread. Mine is post #19: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...p-t164361.html
The color is not very true in these pics. If I can find a pic with better color representation I'll come back and post it. The actual color is quite a bit deeper than the 15 clone thread pic shows.
Here is my original post: http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...se-t81572.html This one shows the color a bit better.
You won't believe what I passed up today. A very old FREE machine with gorgeous decals and a very free moving mechanism. I am scared to death of very early e machines and this Westinghouse motor was old - it was kind of built into the back of the machine. It had a bentwood case which was in worse shape in the machine. The machine was only very dusty and the decals were in good shape. $12.50 and I left it there. :shock: There was also a crinkle finish White in a cabinet it didn't belong in, but I'm so over crinkle finishes. I'm still looking to get rid of my 128.
Hello everyone, this does not cover sewing machines. But a little humor, I am wondering how many DH's think like mine?
Trish, very funny. Don't have a DH so safe for now. I go shopping with my quilting buddies.
ooh too funny!!
My DH would be in there with me....finding more fabric that I absolutely need to buy to have in the collection.
I found a Wilcox & Gibbs treadle for sale. It would be my first and I find I know nothing about them. The lady said she can only see a number in black that says 1870. I know that isn't the model number. So, basically, 'help'? I am going to go look at it today or tomorrow. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :D Most of my collection consists of Singers.

Carrot Cake Pancakes
Michelle Bates-Phipps
I love carrot cake! And I love to make a variety of good foods for breakfast on the weekends because it is the one meal that my husband and I can sit down and totally enjoy together. I also make way too much in case we invite other family over or to freeze for quick nutritious breakfasts during the week. As with all of my recipes this one was created with desire and inspiration. The desire was to make a delicious meal, the inspiration came from viewing dozens of other similar recipes to find out what works for them and combining several ideas together to make my own creation!
Blue Ribbon Recipe
- 4 c
- Bisquick baking mix
- 2 tsp
- ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp
- ground nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp
- ground cloves
- 4
- eggs
- 2 c
- milk
- 2 c
- carrot, shredded
- 8 oz
- crushed pineapple
- walnut pieces
1shred carrots in a food processor for best results. You can use baby carrots if you don't want to peel carrots. An 8 ounce bag will give you about 3 cups of carrots but you can use them for another recipe you've been dieing to try!
2mix dry ingredients together in large bowl. Use a fork or a wire whisk to make sure you get everything mixed up from the bottom.
3crack eggs into small bowl and beat together, add milk and stir together. I make sure that there are no large gobs (technical term) of eggs in one place.
4slowly stir wet ingredients into bowl with dry ingredients, using a stiff spatula to make sure you have everything mixed up from the bottom and not too many lumps.
5stir in carrots, mixing well.
6drain liquid off of pineapple and set aside. Stir pineapple chunks into batter. If your batter is too thick, you can add some of the pineapple juice to thin it out and add more pineapple flavor through out the pancakes.
7preheat pancake griddle and a small amount of canola or vegetable oil. Using 1/4 cup measuring cup, place pancakes onto griddle. I put 4 at a time on mine. Sprinkle with crushed walnuts. If you prefer you can add them to the batter, but I think they "get lost" doing it that way.
8turn pancakes after the bubbles that form on the sides pop. It takes only 1-2 minutes depending on the density of the batter. let cook on the other side about a minute more. Press with spatula. If they are too dense they might need longer to cook, pressing them will squeeze the raw batter out of the sides and make them more even in thickness.
9enjoy with your favorite syrup or cream cheese frosting thinned out to a pourable consistency.

Ailing ObamaCare could become a crisis for liberalism
But the failed rollout has already raised ideological issues of broader significance. It has reinforced a widely held, preexisting belief that government-run health systems are bureaucratic nightmares. And it has added credence to the libertarian argument that some human systems are too complex to be effectively managed. Perhaps the problem with Obamacare is not failed leadership but rather the whole project of putting a federal agency, 55 contractors and 500 million lines of software code in charge of a health system intended to cover millions of Americans.
I am not a libertarian who argues against the need for programs such as Medicare and Medicaid. But Friedrich Hayek has this much going for him: He understood that the challenge of technocratic planning is always limited information: "The peculiar character of the problem of a rational economic order is determined precisely by the fact that the knowledge of the circumstances of which we must make use never exists in concentrated or integrated form but solely as the dispersed bits of incomplete and frequently contradictory knowledge which all the separate individuals possess."
Note that the azzhole in chief no longer calls it obama'care'. He now calls it the 'Affordable' 'Care' 'Act'. It sure is NOT affordable, NOT care and an act. Schadenfreude on October 22, 2013 at 11:57 AM
Two weeks ago he was lamenting that in five or ten years, after it's a ginormous success, no one would be calling it Obamacare so as to avoid crediting him.
The truth is, it will always be remembered in the same light as other infamous things and people in our history, like Sept 7, 1941, Sept 11, 2001, The Zodiac Killer, Lee Harvey Oswald…

As yet another brigade of Fort Polk soldiers begin packing their gear and readying for deployment, we would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to the men and women in uniform for their selfless all-or-nothing sacrifices.
Oftentimes, we wait until Veterans Day, Memorial Day or a milestone anniversary such as the D-Day invasion or the attack on Pearl Harbor before we thank our soldiers and Marines for their services. That is a mistake on our part.
Those who have fought or are training to fight on our behalf deserve praise every day.
Servicemen and women should be constantly saluted for their courage in securing the freedoms we enjoy.
It is because of the sacrifices of our veterans that you are reading this newspaper right now. Freedom of the press is important in this country and is something we often take for granted.
As families around our country are taking their summer vacations and children are enjoying a break from school, nearly 1,230 soldiers at Fort Polk are preparing to deploy to Afghanistan for a nine-month stint.
The base's 4th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division has been assigned to serve as a security force assistance brigade to help secure a safer Afghanistan.
Capt. Will Brink said "there are no soldiers in our Army more prepared to accomplish this mission."
We don't doubt that. Fort Polk has a fine reputation around the nation.
Fort Polk boasts a population of more than 9,500 military personnel and nearly 15,000 dependents and 6,700 civilian employees.
The base houses a Joint Readiness Training Center and specializes in training brigade combat teams. The facility also is host to the Army's 1st Maneuver Enhancement Brigade; 115th Corps Support Hospital; the Bayne-Jones Army Community Hospital; and the 162nd Infantry Brigade.
Our men and women in uniform put their lives on the line every day and they deserve the respect they have earned. Let's not wait until tomorrow or until the next holiday to say "thank you" once more to them.

Why does it take an act of Congress to do the RIGHT thing? We could have and should have been doing this a long time ago. Will it take the extermination of several wild bird species to convince people to do the RIGHT thing the FIRST time?? I fear for the planet and other creatures if humans have must be legislated into doing the right thing and won't do it naturally, on their own. So much for humans being so "superior" and "intelligent" and whatnot.

Torin Black Jack 3-Ton Floor Jack and Stands
I was in Wal-Mart the other day (I wasn't proud of myself!) and noticed that they carry a Torin Black Jack line. I saw they had a 3-Ton Floor Jack and Jack Stand set for $95.
I thought it seemed like a good deal and looked like a decent jack, but I'm unsure of getting a Floor Jack at Wal-Mart.
Have people bought this set? How does the Jack perform? Is it good quality or junk?
Nobody's gotten this Set from Wal-Mart?
I think this is the jack that comes in that set. I'm much more inclined to go with that Arcan Jack from Costco for $89. Seems like a much better value.
Yes, I bought the one you're talking about, a month ago. It was a POS! so I took it back to pep-boys and got the Torin Aluminum Racing jack. and it's def better quality. Same brand, just a better setup.
I'm not going with that Wal-Mart jack. I think I'll spend a little more money and get something I know is good.
Don't get the POS stamped steel jackstand, at a minimun this style of 3 ton is acceptable,
I always use the larger 6 ton stands, like the ones above just larger ,Just picked up 2 sets for $24.00 a set.
Avoid this style stands at all cost. that style jack is ok, I've had a craftsman one for about 6-7 years now and its been through hell and back and still does a decent job.
i have 2 sets of the walmart jack stands their just like any othe they hold up a car http://www.walmart.com/ip/Torin-Jack...-Pair/14560047 just like these and im getting a 3 ton jack sometime this or next week http://www.walmart.com/ip/Torin-Jack...-Jack/14560043 like this
Yea those are fine, if you don't need to get far under the car, I like the 6 tons cause they are taller and Gives me room to work, Just avoid these pieces of crap here..
i have a little red jack right now from advance i hate that thing after i used my grandfathers big jack i got a impact from walmart 1/2 drive CH and it wont even break the lug nuts on my car i think theirs something wrong with it 250 ft lbs my *****
The maximum height of the Wal-Mart jack is 17 inches. The maximum height of the Arcan jack is 21 inches. They are around the same price. Of course you need a Costco membership to get the Arcan jack.
i goth the torin jack i posted 100.67 out the door in southeast ky it works good 17.7 inchs high is way up 3.7 low its nice but alittle wide

Is anyone doing b-pics? I want to do them again but I don't want to pay 1k!
I need more ladies for my marathon.
(6) Comments
Check out groupon, livingsocial, buywithme. There was 2 great boudoir deals this past month for SF.
My wedding photographer is doing them, I am getting a room at the hotel we have our room block at (at the same price), having my MU done at the Mall, and having my hair styled by my normal hair person.
She is new at it, so only charging me the cost of making the book : ) $250 - Not bad.... Good luck
Thanks San Fran... that's actually what got me on this kick... I just bought the Karina Diaz groupon and now I'm considering asking for a refund. Her production time is 9 MONTHS because she must have oversold the coupons and I can't even get a date booked to shoot. I want b-pics! Ha, I feel so whiney. Wahhh!
I missed all the valentine's sessons and StudiobyCarmen offered for me to set up a marathon but little luck!
It's like all my married friends don't have to be sexy anymore... haha. Any body walking down the aisle this year?
Vanessa Kearns Photography, Heather Prettyman Photography, and CMC Photography all do them. You should be able to do them on your own without having to set up a marathon. I believe all of them have some sample photos on their sites or blogs. Good luck!
pickaroe...there's a new deal coming on in a day here:
You should see if you like the work of that photog. :)
Thanks San Fran... again! Ha. I found a few marathons I'm going to join if Carmen's marathon doesn't pan out.

Last week, Wired released aerial photos of a new Apple data center construction site in North Carolina. How did we get them? A drone? A chopper?
Actually, pilot and photographer Garrett Fisher flew a 1949 Piper PA-11 (Cub Special) airplane with no electronic instruments over the building and snapped a couple photos with his Canon Rebel while leaning out the window.
"The only real problem is that the plane bounces around quite a bit because it only weighs 830 pounds," says Fisher. "It's not like a 737, which blasts through the air like a dump truck."
Documenting what will be one of the most high-tech facilities in the world with one of the most low-tech airplanes still in the air may seem odd. But in this case, tech doesn't seem to matter, according to Fisher, because the Cub Special is about as good as it gets when it comes to aerial photography.
He says the plane is almost made for this kind of work because of a number of factors.
For example, it can fly at speeds as low as 38 mph, which helps with the focus and cuts down on motion blur. The landing gear and the wing supports are located far enough back that they don't get in the way when looking out the windows. And you control it with a stick instead of a yoke, which means you can steer with your legs while holding the camera with both hands.
"Most of the time it's a slam dunk for photography," he says.
Fisher, a financial consultant by day, is the third generation of his family to own and pilot the plane. He began learning to fly when he was eight and enjoys the challenge of navigating without any electronic help — the plane doesn't even have a radio, much less a GPS or transponder.
Instead, Fisher usually finds his way with a compass or by sight, using features such as rivers, cities or highways as points of reference.
"To this day, I can be on a commercial airliner on the East Coast and as long as there aren't clouds, I can tell you within 50 miles where I am at all times, if I have a window seat," he says.
To find the Apple building, he called it up on Google Maps and figured out what direction it lay from his home airport. From there he set a simple directional heading and looked out for the 45-degree turn in U.S. Highway 321 that he knew was near the site.
"The only little thing was that I had to dodge a thunderstorm getting over there," he says.
To watch out for other aircraft Fisher simply uses his eyes. There are certain air spaces where he can't fly because he doesn't have the right technology – places like the air space over major cities or airports — but he says that 98 percent of the air above the United States is open to planes like his.
"The USA is pretty flexible when it comes to old planes," he says.
He's also slightly limited with how high he can go. At certain altitudes pilots and passengers are required to have supplemental oxygen. And the upper reaches of the air space are reserved for commercial airliners.
That still leaves him plenty of freedom for side projects like ours. For Fisher, the joy comes with the challenges of the airplane.
"It puts the fun back into flying," he says.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

Rupee tumbles to new life-time low of 59.68 as dollar demand weighs
Month-end dollar demand from oil importers and hefty FII outflows dragged down the rupee on Monday by 41 paise to close at new life-time low of 59.68, amid speculation that the RBI stepped in to check the currency slide as it approached nearly 60-mark.
Mumbai: Month-end dollar demand from oil importers and hefty FII outflows dragged down the rupee on Monday by 41 paise to close at new life-time low of 59.68, amid speculation that the RBI stepped in to check the currency slide as it approached nearly 60-mark.
At the Interbank Foreign Exchange (Forex) market, the domestic unit commenced lower at 59.55 a dollar as against last weekend's close of 59.27. It continued its downslide to a low of 59.83, before recovering some ground to settle at 59.68 -- still showing a fall of 41 paise or 0.69 percent. The rupee's previous all-time closing low was 59.57 on June 20.
FIIs pulled out over USD 250 million (Rs 1,552.98 crore) from stocks today, provisional data from the bourses showed.
"Rupee closed weak taking cues from strong dollar and weak equities in India. Strong month end dollar demand from oil importers also weighed which pushed rupee again past 60.00 (futures) levels intra-day," said Pramit Brahmbhatt, CEO, Alpari Financial Services (India).
With the the rupee coming near its alltime (intra-day) low of 59.97/98 levels, "PSU banks were seen selling dollars at the behest of the RBI helping the rupee to some extent", said forex head of a leading private bank.
A weak rupee has a cascading effect on price rise as imports like oil become costlier amid the the government trying to revive growth in the economy.
The dollar index was up by 0.21 percent against a basket of six major global rivals. The US currency has been moving up after US Fed said it may taper off its USD 85 billion a month bond buying programme from later this year and ultimately end it 2014. This has sparked off fears that inflows to emerging markets like India will slow down as the US economy recovers.
Global brokerage firm Standard Chartered today lowered rupee forecast for the year end to 60.5 from 53 on the back of continued strength in US dollar, among other factors.
In order to arrest rupee depreciation, RBI has capacity to sell "up to USD 30 billion" from the forex reserves, according to Bank of America Merill Lynch.
The Indian benchmark Sensex today plunged by 233.35 points to more than two-month low.
"Driven by huge outflows from debt markets and consistent strength in dollar, the rupee fell towards 59.83 levels. FIIs have sold cash shares for nine straight sessions, totalling Rs 7,760 crore. Euro falling towards USD 1.3078 levels against dollar also contributed to the fall in rupee," said Abhishek Goenka, Founder and CEO, India Forex Advisors.
For June so far, FIIs have offloaded shares and debt securities worth over USD 5 billion. The economic logic for foreign funds to invest in domestic debt instruments is withering away as yield differentials are narrowing fast, traders said.
Meanwhile, premium for forward dollar recovered on fresh payments from banks and corporates.
Benchmark six-month forward dollar premium payable in November rose to 153-155 paise from last Friday's close of 151-1/2-153 paise. Far-forward contracts maturing in May also firmed up to 315-1/2-317-1/2 paise from 310-1/2-312 paise.
The RBI fixed the reference rate for the US dollar at 59.7340 and for the euro at 78.2286.
Rupee fell back against the pound sterling to 91.70 from last weekend's close of 91.58 and also turned negative against the Japanese yen to end at 60.91 per 100 yen from 60.65.
It, however, edged up further against the euro to 78.23 from previous close of 78.26.

The Miami Heat battled it out with the division rival Orlando Magic in South Beach on Wednesday night with a 15-game winning streak on the line.
The Magic may be one of the worst teams in the league this season with only 17 wins on the year, but Jameer Nelson and company gave the defending NBA champions a run for their money.
With 12.6 seconds to go in the fourth quarter, the Magic were up by one with the Heat set to inbound the ball and the ball destined to be the hands of the reigning NBA MVP. LeBron received the inbound pass and went to work ultimately driving to the hoop for the game-winning layup:

The Street Department cleans, repairs and patches all assessed streets in the City of Youngstown on a daily basis schedule. The Department also conducts the City's Leaf Removal Program, collecting and composting several tons of leaves annually.
Highway Maintenance is responsible, citywide, for over 1100 miles of street and expressway maintenance, including:
330-744-3179 - Weekdays 7 am to 3 pm
This program provides road maintenance services in order to eliminate hazardous conditions and extend the life of newly resurfaced streets in order to save taxpayer money. It provides for the repair of utility openings, the repair of pot holes, sealing of surface cracks in the street, and the maintenance of brick streets.
Important Information about Potholes: Freeze-thaw cycles and consistent salting and plowing have a significant impact on streets. The City is working to get potholes patched as quickly as possible, weather permitting. The best time for pothole repairs are on dry days when the temperature is at least 40 degrees Fahrenheit or above. It has been too wet to make repairs using hot recycled asphalt, which offers a longer-lasting fix than the "cold patch" method. Cold patch is a temporary fix that is pliable in cold weather and is made from aggregate and an asphaltic material. The City has 8 crews per day (March 2015) working to repair potholes across the city, weather permitting. Main streets and secondary mains are the priority at this time, though local low volume, low speed streets will be systematically repaired after the main thoroughfares. When holes are fixed in the winter, the material used is only a temporary fix until spring. In warmer months a hot asphalt mixture is used, which permanently repairs the hole. Residents can report potholes to 330-744-3179, and they can then be added to the schedule for repair.
Other Holes in the Street
Utility cuts are rectangular excavations in the road made by utility companies to reach underground lines. Contractors are responsible for temporarily filling the cuts. The City no longer makes repairs for any utility companies. Cave-ins or sinkholes are deep holes that reach past the concrete base of the street. This occurs when the dirt below the street has washed away, causing the road to cave in.
330-744-3179 - Weekdays 7 am to 3 pm
This Street Department promotes a clean appearance and provides safe road conditions by cleaning streets and removing litter.
330-744-7526- Youngstown Litter Control & Recycling, Weekdays 8 am to 4 pm
Contractors, haulers and individuals dump tons of debris and hazardous waste in vacant lots, abandoned homes, roadsides and alleys. The city has a list of steps individuals may take to protect their health and environment and perhaps earn a monetary reward.
330-744-3179 – Weekdays, Operate two shifts 7 am to 3 pm and 11pm to 7am.
When snowfall reaches at least one half inch, the Division of Streets begins plowing and salting main streets. Clearing of residential streets is determined by weather conditions and forecasts. Generally, an accumulation above two inches involves salting and plowing, and less accumulation involves salting only. The City has 1 salt barn.
Snow routes priorities:
In the event of heavy snow storms, when the City of Youngstown plows residential streets, residents are asked to move their cars parked on the street off the street, if possible, to give plow trucks additional room to plow. When the City of Youngstown does plow residential streets:
330.744.3179 - Weekdays, Monday-Friday. Operate one shift 7 am to 3 pm. Overtime is planned and managed by management on a weekly basis per our budget.
Grass Cutting route priorities:
The goal is to make residential and commercial vacant lots and vacant structures clean, and safe. Note: Brush Hog Tractors do not cut down to bare dirt on vacant lots, curb lines, and vacant structures.
Refer to the Vacant Property and Lot Maintenance Service flyer below in the Forms and Documents section for more information about Grass Cutting services.
On City-owned buildings: 330-742-8996 - Weekdays 8 am to 4 pm
On other structures: 330-744-3179 - Weekdays 8 am to 4 pm
This ensures removal of city-wide graffiti by City employees and volunteers. It enforces anti-graffiti ordinances and educates the public, especially children and community groups about the negative aspects of graffiti. Removal of graffiti from City-owned buildings is handled by the Buildings & Grounds Department. Removal of graffiti from roads, guardrails, and bridges is handled by the Street Department at 330-744-3179.
330-744-3179 - Weekdays 7 am to 3 pm
This program is charged with protecting the public through guard rail repair on the city's streets and highways.
If there are potholes to fill, call the Street Department at 330.744.3179.
The quick answer is that the owner is responsible. However, in some circumstances the City of Youngstown will try to help. The department you call will depend on the machinery needed to cut the type of property. Here are the possibilities:
The homeowner is responsible for trees on their property. If the tree is on the devil strip, call the Park Department at 330.742.8711

Gnredwing posted a topic in GeneralSo we will have back to back playoffs with a team overcoming a 3-0 series lead. Wings begin by winning tonight, then Sunday in San Jose they will win an overtime thriller. Back to the Joe for game 6, Johan Franzen's hat trick leads Wings past sharks while tying the series. Game 7 is tied 3-3 in third when Dan Cleary breaks the tie and the Wings hold on and Win the game and the series!!!
Gnredwing posted a topic in GeneralI know the Wings will win this series, thats why I am not the least bit worried. Game 3 Wednesday night is going to be huge and that victory is going to get us going and will be the Sharks demise. Once the Red Wings win this series and everyone knows I have insights to the future, you can ask me anything you want. Wings in Seven, you heard it from me first!
Gnredwing posted a topic in GeneralI can honestly say I hate the ducks more then I ever hated the Avalanche. Atleast when the Avalanche would fight they wouldnt go after players that never fight. 2 years ago after game 6 they go after Rafalski, Pronger fights Cleary, then tonight Perry fights Datsyuk. The ducks are the biggest cowards in the league. Perry cant even win a fight with Datsyuk who has never fought before, how pathedic. I hope Perry is embarassed to look himself in the mirror, the *****!
The Rangers signed Derek Boogard, who scored not one goal last year, to a 4 year deal paying him 1.65 million a year. Does anyone else think this is perhaps the worst deal of the year. Sure Boogard can fight, but thats not going to help win any games. I hate the Rangers!
Gnredwing replied to IILeiBlazeII's topic in GeneralWill Filpullas brother start the season on the roster or most likely be in Grand Rapids? I am hoping he and Valterri could play on the same line together, anyone think this will happen??
Gnredwing replied to KDDRWINGS1's topic in GeneralWhy are so many people looking at next season negative. We lost to the Sharks this year who happened to be the number 1 seed in the west, it's not like we lost to the Avalanche! Datsyuk, Zetterberg on the same line next year will certainly help with offense. Franzen back and healthy and an emerging star in Fillpula plus a healthy Dan Cleary is certainly great news! Throw Hudler and Homer into the mix you've got 2 lines most teams would love to have. Howard will only get better, and you have Lidstrom coming back! I havent been looking foward to a season as much as next season for a long time! And enough of this old crap, ever sine 02 the Wings have been "too old" enough already. We won in 02 and then again in 08, the players are all very capable of playing the game or they wouldnt be. Go Wings!!
Gnredwing posted a topic in GeneralLast night I had a dream that back in the 08 finals Hossa actually scored on the last second shot and the Penguins won game 6 in overtime. Then game 7 the Penguins won 5-0 and Ozzy was pulled. The dream was so realistic at first I was like I cannot believe the Wings lost back to back finals! Imagine that was true though, how much would that have sucked!! Thankfully it was just a dream
Gnredwing posted a topic in GeneralThank you Williams for missing the net by 50 feet and leading to the Sharks game winner. It was great to have you back in the lineup. Please do not come back next year, from all Red Wing fans!
Gnredwing replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in GeneralFranzen game winner, Wings win!!!
Gnredwing posted a topic in GeneralSucks to lose game 1 but the series will be tied 1-1 after Sunday. Go Wings!!
Gnredwing replied to Red Wings 2010's topic in GeneralWhat I find funny is if Bertuzzi didnt rack up a lot of points vs Phoenix I bet a lot of responses would be Bertuzzi should of been banned from the league and how he sucks and hes just a waste of space!
Gnredwing replied to a topic in GeneralMy sources are telling me Franzen is going to play great vs the Sharks. He will have 4 goals in the series. GO WINGS GO!!!
