UPS Team Performance Index creates consensus on top four schools in women's basketball
There may be some debate as to who the best team in women's college basketball is, but if the AP poll and UPS Team Performance Index were used as primary references by the NCAA tournament selection committee coming into this week, there would be no arguing who the four No. 1 seeds would be.
Connecticut, Baylor, Duke and Notre Dame topped the week's UPS index -- jumbling the respective order of Baylor, Notre Dame, Connecticut and Duke in the AP Top 25 -- to set the stage for a heavyweight matchup and potential April preview when UConn (16-1) hosts the Blue Devils (16-0) on Monday night.
The Huskies' lone defeat was by one point to the Fighting Irish on Jan. 5. Duke, on the other hand, is the only remaining undefeated team of the 340 women's programs in Division I basketball.
In conjunction with STATS LLC, UPS has created a proprietary algorithm that gauges six major statistics which cover the spectrum of a team's on-court performance: effective field goal percentage, effective field goal percentage against, rebounding percentage, ball-handling efficiency, miscues and winning percentage.
From there, an overall index score is created for all NCAA D-I teams. And as so often been the case during coach Geno Auriemma's tenure, Connecticut finds itself out in front of everyone else.
As evidenced by its No. 1 spot in the index, UConn is a remarkably well-balanced squad and rates well above the pack in all six of the categories that comprise the index. In fact, it is first in three of them: effective field goal percentage, effective field goal percentage against and ball-handling efficiency.
The Huskies' offensive effective field goal percentage, which gives proportional weight to 3-point shots, is an amazing 56.6 percent, resulting in a normalized microindex score of 162.1 -- almost 14 full points better than second-place Baylor in that category. The average for all teams is 100.0.
Not surprisingly, the team leads the NCAA in scoring at 84.0 points per game, led by Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis, who is fourth in the country in 3-point field goal percentage at 49.0.
"We're trying to be a better balanced team," Auriemma said following Saturday's 87-62 win over Syracuse. "But one of the things that's helped Kaleena is that she's usually not the only 3-point shooter out on the floor. Sometimes we have three or four of them out there, so the defense has a hard time catching up to all of them."
The Blue Devils, however, will likely provide one of the stiffer tests of the season for Connecticut. While the Huskies hold edges in four of the six microindexes, Duke is no slouch in any of them. The Blue Devils are less than four points behind in the index overall, and are one of the few schools that may be able to go toe-to-toe with UConn on the boards.
Duke is one of 10 teams that has a rebounding microindex higher than the Huskies.
"We all aspire to be at a certain place where it is all about Duke, it's all about what we do," coach Joanne P. McCallie said just before her team made the trip up to Storrs, Conn. "It's not so much about the opponent, but what we do. We're not there yet, but we're trying to get there."
Not to be lost in the hubbub around Monday night's game is AP No. 1 and defending national champion Baylor (16-1), whose sole loss was 71-69 against then-No. 4 Stanford in November. Since then, the Lady Bears have gone 14-0, including hallmark wins at Notre Dame and against Tennessee.
Sitting less than three points behind UConn in the UPS index, Baylor rates above the Huskies in rebounding and miscues, and has arguably the best player in the country in Brittney Griner. The senior center is averaging 21.8 points and 8.1 rebounds, and has her team pointed toward another deep tournament run.
"Griner, best player in the country, bar none," West Virginia coach Mike Carey said after his Mountaineers lost 76-58 to Baylor on Saturday night. "She's gotten better every year."
Notre Dame (16-1), which knocked off the Huskies in Storrs, rounds out the top four schools in the index. Powered by point guard Skylar Diggins, it's no surprise the Fighting Irish are second among all teams in the microindex that measures a lack of miscues.
While none of the top four teams changed their position in the index over the past week, three schools made big moves. Seattle, Central Connecticut and Stephen F. Austin -- whose men's team is surprisingly top-ranked in that index -- each jumped 42 spots, although none of them are in the top 100. Cincinnati, on the other hand, fell 48 spots to No. 206.

A MOLD man has been jailed for two years after he attacked a woman and two men at a Deeside pub.
To make matters worse, Leon Andrew Lavelle, 24, was on early release licence from a sentence for two robberies at the time.
Lavelle, of New Street in Mold, admitted a charge of common assault and two charges of assault occasioning actual bodily harm following the incident at The Boathouse in Connah's Quay.
Sentencing him yesterday, Judge Niclas Parry said it was three acts of violence on three different victims on the same night.
He entered the female toilets saying he wanted to hide from the police and when he was properly asked to leave, he took a swing at one woman, missed, and struck another in the jaw as she tried to defend her friend.
Lavelle continued to be aggressive, he ignored the licensee's requests to leave and then attacked two members of the public who were acting perfectly decently and who had been trying to placate him.
He knocked one unconscious with a single punch and struck another as he turned to walk away, perforating his ear drum.
"This was a sustained and unprovoked act of violence on licensed premises," he said.
His only real mitigation was his guilty pleas.
Prosecuting barrister Simon Rogers said that at 11.50pm Lavelle entered the ladies, said he was hiding from the police, was asked to leave but he became agitated and took a swing at one of the young women inside.
He missed but struck her friend who had tried to intervene, in the jaw, which made her head jerk back.
She tried to push him out and he hit her to the brow.
Staff arrived, he became angry and eventually left.
Outside, two men who had been in the pub tried to placate him.
One had no memory of what happened and was knocked unconscious with a single blow.
He needed stitches to his upper lip, a suspected broken nose, a chipped tooth and a bump to the back of the head.
The other was punched from behind which perforated his ear.
That caused a loss of hearing and his balance had been affected.
However it had all been captured on CCTV, said Mr Rogers, who played it to the court.
Andrew Jebb, defending, said the CCTV graphically captured what had happened outside the pub.
Lavelle wrongly felt he was under threat at the time but the CCTV showed that was entirely wrong and that was a misunderstanding.
He apologised profusely for what he put them through.
It was fortunate that far more serious injuries were not caused.
"He completely misread the situation," Mr Jebb explained.
Lavelle had been recalled and apart from yesterday's sentence, he would not be released until January of next year.
While in custody Lavelle had fully co-operated with the drug and alcohol services and he had been receiving counselling.

Soldier Brain Injuries to Get Senate Scrutiny After ProPublica, NPR Report
WASHINGTON, D.C. — Responding to an investigation by ProPublica and NPR, the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee said Friday that he would expand a hearing on soldier suicides to include a more extensive discussion of the military's handling of traumatic brain injuries and post-traumatic stress disorder.
"The recent NPR and ProPublica reports on the military's diagnosis, treatment, and tracking of traumatic brain injuries are concerning," Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., said in a statement.
NPR and ProPublica reported this week that the military was failing to diagnose soldiers with so-called mild traumatic brain injuries. Such injuries, also called concussions, are typically difficult to detect but can cause lasting mental and physical difficulties.
Unpublished military studies and interviews with medical officials suggest there could be tens of thousands of soldiers suffering undiagnosed traumatic brain injuries, which have been called one of the signature wounds in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. When soldiers were diagnosed, many received little or no treatment, even at large bases such as Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas.
Official military statistics say 115,000 troops have suffered a mild traumatic brain injury since the wars began. But in interviews, top Army medical officials acknowledged that those figures understate the true number.
Civilian studies suggest up to 15 percent of people with mild traumatic brain injuries experience lingering problems with memory, concentration, sleep and balance problems.
"While the Department of Defense and the military services have made progress toward increasing knowledge about and awareness of the causes, diagnosis, and treatment of traumatic brain injuries, there is still a good deal to learn, both in the military and civilian medical environments," Levin said in his statement.
Levin's spokeswoman said the hearing will take place later this month, though the date has not been finalized. It will look at the complex web of illnesses that have afflicted troops returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the role those disorders play in soldier suicides. The issue has been a growing concern in the military.
Soldiers with traumatic brain injury often also suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, a debilitating psychological wound. Those who survive roadside blasts can suffer both a brain injury and PTSD, which can be triggered by the terror of the event.
"Traumatic brain injury, post traumatic stress, and suicide are all related issues, at times making diagnosis difficult," Levin said in his statement.
Army officials said they have been working to improve their systems to diagnose soldiers. They said soldiers with brain injuries have received appropriate treatment.
In an interview earlier this week, Gen. Peter Chiarelli, the Army's vice chief of staff, said the military took traumatic brain injuries "extremely seriously."
Chiarelli, who has worked to raise awareness about the severity of so-called invisible wounds such as mild traumatic brain injury and PTSD, said medical officials must diagnose and treat a complicated mix of illnesses.
"It's time we realize that TBI and PTSD are real injuries," Chiarelli told "Talk of the Nation" host Neal Conan. "We've got to ensure our soldiers get the care that they need."
Brain Wars: How the Military Is Failing Its Wounded
The military has failed to diagnose brain injuries in thousands of soldiers returning from overseas.
The Story So Far
Traumatic brain injury is considered the "signature wound" of soldiers fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. Official military statistics show that more than 115,000 soldiers have suffered mild traumatic brain injuries since the wars began. Shock waves from roadside bombs can ripple through soldiers' brains, causing damage that sometimes leaves no visible scars but may cause lasting mental and physical harm.

Graduation at The Wesley School is bittersweet. As we sat and listened to each and every 8th grade student give a short speech about his or her time here at Wesley, we were reminded of why it is we do what we do. To a person, they all thanked their parents, of course. But they also all expressed great appreciation for the faculty and how well prepared they feel to move on to high school. Sure, they acknowledged the strong academic preparation, but sometimes, even more so, it was that they feel confident, independent, socially and globally aware, and totally ready to move forward on their educational journey. They appreciated the ability to "grow up" in a safe, nurturing environment that helped them each develop to the point where they really feel ready to fly. We are so proud of them all!
They are moving on to a strong list of high schools that well represent the diversity among our students, from writers to scientists, musicians to athletes. The class of 2013 is matriculating to Archer, Buckley, Campbell Hall, CHAMPS, Crespi, Flintridge Prep, Loyola, Marlborough, Marymount, Notre Dame, Providence, Sidwell Friends, and Viewpoint.
We are also excited to share the list of colleges that students from the Wesley Class of 2009 will attend: Boston University, Cal Lutheran, CSUN, Fordham, Georgia Tech, Kenyon College, Lewis & Clark, NYU, Pierce College, Skidmore, Tufts, University of Alabama, UC Riverside, UC Santa Barbara, University of Pennsylvania, and West Coast University.
Congratulations to all!

A major search is being carried out after an eight-year-old boy fell into a river while playing with friends.
The boy is believed to have fallen into the River Wear, near Willington, in County Durham, at around 7pm on Friday.
Police, the fire service and search and rescue teams scoured the area after the alarm was raised, with the RAF and mountain rescue team expected to continue the search during the night.
Janice Larnach, the owner of the Brown Trout pub, near to where the boy is believed to have fallen in the river, said the area had experienced heavy rainfall during the last week and the River Wear was flooded.
She said the boy's brother had told search teams he saw his sibling fall and grab on to a tree branch, which then snapped.
Mrs Larnach said: "His brother said he saw him fall in, hang on to a branch and that snapped but he hasn't been found up to now.
"It happened just as we were opening and we've had a full-scale search in the area."
She said she believed the boy's bicycle had been discovered on the river bank.
Mrs Larnach added: "We've had heavy rain for a week. It hasn't rained today but the river's really in flood."

NURSING home staff walked 14 miles to raise more than £2,000 for charity.
Fourteen staff from The Cottage Nursing Home in Mold raised the money with a sponsored walk from the home to Moel Famau and back.
The money is being split between the Dean Puplett appeal and for the local branch of the Motor Neurone Disease (MND) Association.
Nursing home training manager Cathy Peach, who organised the trek, said the home liked to do a charity event each year.
She said: "We thought we'd like to do something local and so we thought of Dean. And then we wanted to raise awareness of MND because one of our residents, Cedwyn Smallwood, is an MND sufferer."
Motor Neurone Disease (MND) is a progressive disease which attacks the nerves in the brain. MND can affect how you walk, talk, eat, drink and breathe.
There is currently no cure for MND but symptoms can be managed to help you achieve the best possible quality of life.
Dean, from Mold, was diagnosed with the childhood cancer, neuroblastoma, in 2010.
The six-year-old has now fought off the condition but there is an 80 per cent chance it will return.
"It was a lovely day out and we finished at Loggerheads where we were met by Cedwyn," said Cathy.
"To be honest, we were just overwhelmed by everyone's generosity including all the local business who donated prizes for a raffle we held afterwards."
l To donate to the Dean Puplett Appeal go to www. justgiving.com/DeanPuplett Appeal or search the Dean Puplett Appeal on Facebook.
Anyone who would like to help and is in a position to make the appeal their charity of the year or has space for a fundraising pot is asked to contact Jane on 01352 218454 or 07974177489 or call in at Flintshire Fitness Supplies in the Daniel Owen Precinct, Mold.

Keen interest in proposed bus changes
Media release from Greater Wellington Regional
20 February 2012
Keen interest in proposed bus changes
People interested in the proposed Wellington City bus changes are being encouraged to check the Greater Wellington website regularly for updated questions and answers.
Peter Glensor, Chair of Greater
Wellington's Economic Wellbeing Committee, says people
have been flooding the email inbox with questions about
their specific areas.
"Many of the questions are common, relating to route details, so we're updating our website regularly in response to the themes that are emerging.
"People want to know, for example, what route would replace the #20 Highbury route or whether there would be additional peak services on the Wilton bus route. Because we're proposing an essentially new network across the city, in most cases you can't get a direct comparison between a current route and a proposed route."
The updated questions and answers are at www.gw.govt.nz/busquestions
Also, a series of drop in sessions will begin next week where Greater Wellington staff will be on hand to answer questions and discuss the proposal with people. A list of session times and venues is attached.
"The proposed changes are wide-ranging and quite complex and we'd strongly encourage people to check out the Q & As first, and if they still have questions, to email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or leave a message on 04 830 4071.
"I fully appreciate that Wellington City bus routes haven't changed significantly for about 20 years so the proposed changes are big for many people. However, these proposals haven't come out of the blue. They are the result of a review that has been going on for more than two years. We had one round of public consultation in early 2010 where people told us they wanted more bus services throughout the day, evening and weekends, better travel times through the CBD and they wanted better connections for cross city travel.
"Since that first round of consultation we've worked closely with bus operators, Wellington City Council transport staff and international public transport consultants on a proposal that would give people what they said they would like. We tested some of the concepts out with focus groups and other interested people and now we're asking the wider community what they think."
Information about the proposed changes are at www.gw.govt.nz/bus People need to give their feedback by Friday 16 March.
Wellington City Bus Review: 'Drop in" community information sessions

For someone who has studied acting for years, it saddens me to hear about all these "reality stars" being cast in films, mostly due to their status.
No. 2 booglypoo says:Posted: May 9, 2008 at 1:37 am
The films they are cast in aren't any good anyways and no one watches them, so I wouldn't worry about it.

Well, today was Portuguese pancake day at our house. Portuguese pancakes are something that my grandmother (who was Portuguese) used to make for us on Pancake Tuesday. It is a recipe that she got from her mother.
So the kids and I were up bright and early to prepare. There are two types of Portuguese pancakes - sonhos (we call it soonyage) which is the kind we make and malasadas (we call it malasaditch) which is another variation that contains yeast. Keep in mind that our Portuguese roots are there but pretty far back so we could be pronouncing it wrong.
Here's the recipe with my grandmother's beautiful handwriting.
Ava was immediately in a bad mood because I wasn't paying attention and put the boys in the wrong high chairs (Ethan is on the left, Owen is on the right).
Then I realized there was a quirk I hadn't yet captured. I decided to push her buttons a bit and mismatched her sippy cup. (I later felt guilty as she was wearing her I Heart Mom shirt which she picked out herself).
All is right with the world again:
Then my mom and I got to baking. First step was to get the syrup boiling on the stove.
Bring 3 cups of sugar, 1-1/2 cups of water and three cinnamon sticks to a boil on the stove.
Put 2 cups of water in another pot.
Add one dessert spoon of butter,
and a pinch of salt (this is an 1/8 of a tsp - good to know) and bring it to a boil on the stove.
Add 1/2 lb of flour (this is 1-3/4 cups - also good to know) and mix with a wooden spoon.
While this is going on, a crowd of onlookers start to form:
and Ava and Grandad are watching Thomas.
Cover the syrup and turn off the heat. Remove cinnamon sticks. The syrup is going to crystallize but that's okay.
Stir the flour mixture on a low heat to cook it. Let it cool.
Get a taste tester to check the syrup. Quality control is of the utmost importance. :)
Add the six eggs one at a time and mix with a mix master/hand mixer until bubbles form.
Looking for the bubbles:
Cover and set aside the mixture for two hours.
So we took a lunch break. This picture sums up our house on any given day. If I am in the kitchen making something, somebody is always at the gate. And that someone at the gate usually gets something to snack on. And Scarlett is usually there keeping a close watch to make sure it isn't dropped. While this is going on, the boys are milling around in the background putting anything and everything in their mouths.
Ava killed me today. She had my mom do her hair and told her exactly where to put everything and how to do it. She looks like she escaped from Woodstock.
After two hours is up, heat about an inch of oil in a large pot. Drop 1/4 tsp dollops of batter into the oil. Make sure the oil is on a low heat so they don't burn. Flip them over to cook them evenly on all sides.
This just in. Grandad has fallen asleep on the couch. I turned around to find Ava had covered him with a blanket and was giving him a kiss. This is going to be a favourite picture of mine for years to come I suspect.
Once golden brown, pull from the oil. See? Just like a TimBit, only lighter and more hollow.
Heat the syrup on the stove or in the microwave and drizzle over the pancakes.
Well that was it! Thanks mom for a great day. Love you Nana baby. xo

Phoenix Coyotes Cruisin' to Playoffs With Big Wins Over Chicago Blackhawks and Dallas Stars; Up Next: Chicago Blackhawks -- Again
Lee Stempniak, acquired by the Phoenix Coyotes from the Toronto Maple Leafs, scored twice Saturday to help the Coyotes beat the Chicago Blackhawks
After two big wins this weekend, the Phoenix Coyotes find themselves in an unlikely spot: tied for first place in the Western Conference and number two overall on ESPN's weekly power rankings.
The Coyotes got two shootout wins this weekend, beating the Chicago Blackhawks 5-4 in front of a sold-out, home crowd on Saturday and the Dallas Stars 3-2 in another shootout stunner on Sunday.
The Coyotes have extended their winning streak to nine games, matching a franchise record dating back to the days of the Winnipeg Jets.
On Saturday, the Howlers managed to rally back from two two-goal deficits to force overtime with the Blackhawks, where Coyotes goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov was perfect and Radim Vrbata scored the lone goal to get the victory.

Lee Stempniak, acquired by the Coyotes a few weeks ago from the Toronto Mapleleafs, scored twice in the win, while Adrian Aucoin and Wojtek Wolski -- another new edition to the team -- each scored once.
After the big win Saturday, and coming off of a four-game road trip, the Doggies headed to Dallas to take on the Stars.
Bryzgalov had the day off but it didn't matter. Aside from some rebound issues, his replacement -- backup goaltender Jason LaBarbera -- was good enough to get the win.
Peter Prucha got the scoring started for the Coyotes, slapping one past Dallas goalie Marty Turco with one second remaining in the first period.
Radim Vrbata sneaked one past Turco early in the second period, giving the Yotes a two goal lead.
The Stars rallied to find the back of the net twice, tying the game at two by the end of regulation.
In overtime, the Coyotes had a chance to put it away when Phoenix captain Shane Doan found a rebound and fired a quick shot at an open net. Hopes of the Coyotes winning a game not as the result of a shootout were dashed, however, when Turco threw up his blocker at the last second making a circus save with his stick to send the game into a shootout.
In the shootout, LaBarbera gave up the first shot but that was the only one that found its way past the Yotes B-squad goaltender.
LaBarbera was perfect in stopping the three remaining shots, and Adrian Aucoin put one between the pipes for the win on the Howlers' fourth shot.
If there were any doubters remaining, with the win over the high-powered Hawks, the Phoenix Coyotes are now officially a Stanley Cup-caliber team.
The Doggies hit the ice next when they face off against the Blackhawks in Chicago tomorrow night. The puck drops at 5:30 p.m., and the game will be televised on Fox Sports Arizona. For more information on the Coyotes, check out the team's Web site here.

Loyal Royal tries Maasdam - fantastic trip!: Maasdam Cruise Review by masonpips
Overall Member Rating
Loyal Royal tries Maasdam - fantastic trip!
Destination: Canada & New England
Embarkation: Boston
Cruise: Boston to Montreal – July 5 – July 12
Bar Harbor, Maine
Halifax, Nova Scotia
Sydney, Nova Scotia
Charlottetown, PEI
Day at Sea
Quebec City, Quebec
Montreal, Quebec
We left our Boston hotel (Seaport) at 10:30 and had no traffic getting to the ship. QM2 was supposed to be in port but left the day before due to Hurricane Arthur. We had a beautiful breezy day as the storm had moved northeast by now. We gave our bags to More the porter, proceeded upstairs, filled out a Canadian customs card (for entering on Monday) and checked-in. We were in Group 3 to board and were seated quickly. My DD joked "oh we're in the last group to board" (spoiled Diamond member lol....) I thought it was a painless process and equal to RCCL
At exactly 11:30 they started boarding. Groups 1 and 2 were for the wheelchairs and 4/5 star cruisers. About 20 people boarded before they called our group. We were up next. The rooms were ready immediately (WOW!) and we headed there.
We had booked an Ocean-view (524) and an inside (522). Both were excellent and all of us were impressed. Our kids thought the inside was WAY better than the one on Oasis and Independence in terms of size. We had the VERY BEST AC I've ever had on a cruise. The room was a meat locker and I loved it (you could adjust, but why?)
We had plenty of storage and 3 dispensers with Elemis products plus a separate bottle of lotion and 2 robes. There are very few balconies on the Maasdam so we were happy with the Ocean-view and really enjoyed the room and location although we found it weird to go UP for dinner/bars. On RCCL's larger ships we usually stay up and travel down to Promenade!
Our room steward was excellent. The only weird thing is he never introduced himself and/or really wanted to chat. He was super efficient and did a great job, but I'm used to chit-chatting with the RCCL ones and this seemed a little different. I felt the same way about our dining waiter, super nice and efficient but didn't feel like we "knew" him.
We used the laundry room twice to do 3 loads (12 day trip and teenagers, enough said). It was fantastic to be able to do the laundry and leave the ship for our post-cruise weekend trip w/clean clothes! There was an iron I used once as well, but we paid for the Endless Pressing ($28) and sent everything else to be pressed. We sent over 20 items in total (two "orders" sent) so it was well worth it for us. We usually press a few things on RCCL (and the price per item is way cheaper) but liked this option of unlimited for a set price.
Ship Overall layout/size
We then took a tour of the ship top-to-bottom. Our smallest RCCL ship was Radiance (90K tons) and this was 55K. Dh and I had been on Celebrity Century (72K). We both thought the Maasdam seemed as large as the Century and was comparable to the Radiance. It felt like most of the missing space was cabins (and people!). Capacity of Maasdam is listed at about 1300. It was only crowded in the buffet.
The ship is very well laid out and easy to navigate, with the exception of Deck 7 having no way to go forward from the aft. Just seemed weird. All other decks were great. Similar set-up to all ships, dining in back, gym and spa in front, bars everywhere, etc. We loved the back pool which was rarely used and always had seats. I would say the crowd on the ship was significantly older than RCCL but there were a lot of multi-generational groups like ours too.
Food was good to great. We were very pleased. Pinnacle was outstanding and the main dining room had really great choices and everything came as ordered and was tasty. We ate in Lido one night to dress down and it was fairly good but honestly it's a little small for when a BUNCH of people show up (like breakfast on sea day) and the lines are a little weird – they serve you main dishes and sides all week and you may have to hit a couple stations to get a full meal.
The outside bar by the pool had hamburgers (good) and hotdogs (good per dh and dd) and a "bar" where typically they had Mexican (chips, salsa, chicken, tortillas, toppings) or a potato bar (one day), etc. Per my kids the fries were "meh" all week and the pizza was not that great (my kids missed Sorrentos!)
We brought on 4 bottles of wine and drank 2, mainly because we discovered HAPPY HOUR and loved it. It was daily from 4-5 in the Ocean Bar and then from 6-7 in the Crow's Nest. First drink regular price ($6.95 for almost all) and $1.00 for second drink. It seemed natural to get ready for dinner w/a drink from one Happy Hour and then wander to Crow's Nest to hang out for the second one before dinner (late dinner was 7:45 all week). The bartenders were fantastic and we REALLY liked that you never had to sign a receipt for drinks and no one expected an "extra" tip (including in Pinnacle).
We prefer the Diamond Lounge (hello, FREE) but the Happy Hour was fantastic and we had a blast. It probably helped that World Cup was on twice (semi-finals) and there were huge groups of people having a blast
Ports (realizing this isn't a comparison to RCCL)
The ports were fantastic (so was the weather). The only disappointment was Sydney as we were in port for barely 6 hours and there was so little that you could go "do". If you do this cruise, expect that to be a down day or find a ship/itinerary that lets you stay longer. Brief overview of what we did:
Bar Harbor – independent rock climbing – FANTASTIC and on-our-own seafood lunch ($18 lobster) – then walked around, had ice-cream and boarded.
Halifax, rented car at Westin, drove to Peggy's Cove, SwissAir Memorial, lunch at White Sails Bakery and Deli, hit the cemetery to see the Titanic graves and dropped the boys at the Maritime Museum. I then did a 3 mile run along the waterfront, it was great
Sydney – walked into town, visited shoe store, stopped at Tim Horton's (for teen wifi), ate at Govenor's Pub, wandered around
Charlottetown, took 4 mile walk about, visited churches and historical places, wandered Victoria Park. At at Lobster on the Wharf (meh) and then I did a run along the waterfront/in town. LOVED this town. It was kind of eerie, almost "too perfect". Reminded me of "The Truman Show". Haha
Quebec City – Oh wow, I LOVED it here. We walked and walked and walked! We saw all of the lower town and all the cool sites of the upper walled city. We took the 312 stair walk around promenade thing that took you up even higher. Had a snack at a French café. It was all fantastic!
Sea Day/Entertainment
Our sea day was cold! It was sunny but chilly. We laid out for a while but mainly relaxed and wandered around. I will say with only one sea day I think the ship was perfect sized. With another, you could get bored (or you could enjoy/relax!). We saw ZERO shows. I blame Happy Hour and late dinner, because afterwards we were exhausted. We did get up early every day due to ports too.
The cruise director seemed very nice and cheery. Typically he made an announcement once or twice a day, as did the captain. The captain was very easy to understand and always told us the following day's course and weather.
We had split plans, my dh and parents were flying back and the kids and I rented a car and went to upstate NY. We picked the "early" departure which was 8:30 I think. We were called promptly and left. Our luggage was right in the section assigned and we walked out. It literally took about 5 minutes in total. A lot probably had to do with the small size ship, but very impressive!
I had looked at this cruise/itinerary for years, but could never make it work on RCCL due to fall/school times. I would LOVE to do this again during peak leave changing time and would highly recommend the itinerary.
Overall I was MORE than pleased with Holland and the Maasdam. I went into the cruise a little fearful and expecting the worst (due to ship size, age of ship and passengers, etc). It ended up greatly exceeding my expectations and I wouldn't hesitate to sail on Holland again. We probably won't anytime soon (due to kid's, Diamond status, etc.) but the time will come when I will take another cruise and try one of their other "bigger" ships! Less

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Calls to break up the big banks are on the rise, but Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke suggests just leaving it to market forces. In Congressional testimony Thursday, Bernanke said that post-crisis regulations requiring large banks to hold higher capital and subject them to a greater supervision will "take away the advantage of size."
"Market forces themselves will make it attractive to downsize, rationalize and so on," said Bernanke. Breaking up big banks remains in the forefront of regulatory debate nearly four years since the crisis, as investors and taxpayers worry about the fallout of the euro debt crisis on American banks in an interconnected world. JPMorgan Chase's ( JPM) $2 billion trading loss has also lent fresh ammunition to those calling for banks to split up. >>Is It Time to Break Up Big Banks?: Poll The mechanics of doing so remain uncertain, however. Some have suggested bringing back Glass- Steagall Act, repealed under the Clinton Administration, which separated commercial banking operations from investment banking. Other policymakers remain focused on size, pointing out that banks can expose taxpayers as much through faulty lending as they can through risky trades. Still, there is no clear agreement on just how banks should be broken up. "When people talk about breaking up banks, they are not specific," Bernanke noted. "Do they want them to be only slightly smaller,
do they want to have a lot of community banks?" The Chairman went on to add that the creation of the orderly liquidation authority under Dodd- Frank that gives the Federal Deposit Insurance Company the authority to wind down large insurance companies and securities firms along with banks when they fail was one step towards ending the notion of "too big to fail." He also said that banks being asked to create "living wills" that spell out how they are to be wound up in the event of failure will also help provide more clarity on banks' complex structures. It could also be used to restructure banks. "One approach would be to ask banks to simplify their structures to avoid these complex situations," Bernanke said.

I recently switched him to Embark. The first time I prepared it; he got excited just by the scent, and could barely wait for it to be ready. He's been on Embark for over a week now, and has had no gas, his stools are a good consistency, and even better, he loves dinner time. I've had to put the box out of his reach, as it's the only food or treat I've seen him try to help himself to.

Winter is fast approaching, I know this to be true, it was 19 degrees at my house this morning – burrrr! Time to get the wood stove started! Are we ready to be Dormant? When I think of the term dormant, visions of the grey skeletal branches of trees in winter come to mind, the ghostly crooked stalks of this summer's prairie flowers and grasses beneath grey skies and snowy landscapes during our long Wisconsin winters.
Dormancy is defined as "A state of quiescence during the development of many plants characterized by their inability to grow, though continuing their morphological and physiological activities." The pause in physical growth patterns, a time of rest after a long season of growth … bears hibernating in caves, latent, sleeping awaiting the emergence of spring. Yes, this is an apt description of all of us lounging all winter long, the short days and long dark nights, resting yet longing for colorful first of spring flowers and longer days of summer.
Spring is typically thought to be the most traditional time to plant seed, but there are definite advantages to a fall seeding, especially when undertaking a native prairie seeding. When we seed in fall, the seeding is dormant, and the seed will remain in the soil all winter long to germinate in spring. The seed's exposure to cold and snow (or rain) in winter softens and stratifies the seed. This process works to break down seed germination inhibitors and "tricks" the seed into germinating in spring. Studies have shown that fall seeding will result in increased germination of most wildflowers. Warm season grasses may though show a decrease in germination when seeded in the fall.
Fall planting takes advantage of cold, moist winter conditions, breaking seed dormancies and promoting earlier germination and faster seedling establishment the following spring. This early seedling establishment is especially critical on sand, which heats up and dries out quickly in spring and on clay, which gets rock-hard when it dries out and restricts root development. Wet clay soils are also difficult to work and plant during moist spring conditions.
Fall Seeding Advantages
- Seed overwinters as it would in nature and comes up in spring on its own schedule when conditions are right. This breaks most seed dormancies naturally over winter.
- In general, flower species exhibit increased spring germination with fall seeding.
- Recommended for droughty, sandy soils because seed germinates earlier in the season, when moisture levels are optimal, and before summer heat.
- Recommended for clay and wet soils. Clay and wet soils are easier to work in the fall than in spring, and seeds will germinate earlier in the season. Clay soils often remain wet well into spring, and by the time they can safely be worked, the heat and drought of summer are often right around the corner, which can reduce the success of seedling survival. Fall seeding on clay and wet soils encourages earlier germination and better root development prior to the onset of summer.
- Fall seedings do not require watering, as the seeding is dormant.
Fall Seeding Disadvantages
- Warm season grass seed typically exhibits reduced germination.
- There is no opportunity for early spring weed control by cultivation or Herbiciding.
- Be careful on erosion prone sites. Plant erosion prone sites paired with a nurse crop of annual rye.
Fall seeding may in some cases be done as a "no-till" seeding. This technique works only on sites that have had all weed eliminated by smothering (organic method) or herbicide use. If the result of this process reveals dead vegetation which is very sparse with a good deal of mineral soil present below the dead vegetation, you can seed right into this vegetation. First cut down any vegetation with a lawnmower and rake it off, the cut vegetation may impede seed to soil contact. The seed will work its way down into the soil through the freeze and thaw process throughout winter. This method can only be accomplished in the fall. This method will not work in spring as the seed will not be worked into the soil without ground freeze and thaw. It is important to roll the seeded area so the seed is impacted into the soil.
No worries about seed germinating in the fall. Most native seed requires a soil temperature of 70 degrees to germinate, and in most areas, seeding in early to mid fall germination will not occur. In our region (Upper Midwest, Northeast,Great Lakes and Lower Midwest/Plains states), the timing of our seeding is from mid September until soil freeze up. In fact, we can plant on partially frozen soil as long as the seed makes good contact with the soil at the time of planting.
After seeding, we're done! No need to water, no need to worry … we just wait (not so patiently) for spring. For now, find that couch and grab a slice of pizza and your remote … I mean find that pair of skis and break out the hummus and broccoli … spring awaits … the beginning of a new prairie adventure!
One of my favorite poets, Robert Frost has his own words of dormancy… A Winter Eden:
A winter garden in an alder swamp,
Where conies now come out to sun and romp,
As near a paradise as it can be
And not melt snow or start a dormant tree…

" Brand: Stanley / Type: Hand Saw "
@ Comfort & Cutting @
I bought this saw two years ago and i have used it for pretty much all of my DIY since then, its been a great tool to have. The saw has a handle which is made from plastic but it has very tiny raised bumps and these provide quite a lot of grip when your hands get sweaty, the plastic is quite thick but I've never had any problems with slipping off the saw or where my hands became so sweaty i was unable to use it.
The handle is very sturdy and there is no give when you try to push it down, i have on many occasions pushed it hard down when trying to get to hard to reach places on a plank of wood (we've all been there) but even though i normally put a lot of effort into this sort of thing and I'm quite heavy handed i still cant get it to budge, its attached quite well so comfort and build quality where the handle is concerned scores top marks.
When cutting a large plank of wood about two inches thick the saw wont bend constantly, its not flimsy like other saws and you don't get any problems with knots because the teeth don't get stuck and start to grind down on the wood, you can get them back out again quite easily. The teeth are quite sharp but they are also small enough to make minor cuttings easier to do, i never get the right balance with other saws because the teeth wear down too fast but they are great when cutting small things. The teeth on this saw cut through thick wood and thin wood and rarely jam, pulling them out again is easy and they are quite hard to bend under pressure. You can still bend them but they are quite durable.
@ Build Quality @
This saw score top marks, after two years my teeth have worn down and its starting to show signs of wear but its not had an easy life and it does still saw. The handle has not become weak, the teeth are almost all completely straight and the side of the saw has marks on where its had friction burns from the side of wood but everything else is fine, just needs the logo repainted on the handle. Its still sturdy and like with older saws you get a bit of rust near the handle and you've had it, it becomes much weaker with this saw its not the case, I've never had that problem.
@ Overall @
Top quality saw recommended for all types of cutting, its durable and made from good quality materials. If you're serious about your DIY or like me just love good tools then this is definitely for you, id recommend it over any other brand of saw.

A couple of years ago, I moved back home, with a mind to be close to family. I have taken a customer service job in a local hotel to cover expenses, with some grand plans to work for myself. I do have ideas of what I want. It's gonna take some time and hard work to make it happen.
I am skeptical, spiritual, and serious
my fave movie of all time is Courage Under Fire, with 12 Monkeys being my current fave show. Hell Kitchen's is my reality show of choice.
I like all kinds of music but would say U2 and Sarah McLachlan are my two faves. but have found that indie bands can be good too. I love going to the Capital for local music (and searching for a place in the Miramichi to do the same). and very willing to travel 24 hours to see a band/artist I like.
I love Korean food, having lived in Seoul for a year. I love the spiciness of the red pepper, added to most Korean dishes. I'm willing to try most dishes, cultural or otherwise. In fact, there have only been a few that I have tried that I wouldn't try again. Ask me about them after you've gotten to know me.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 11/4/2013 (1595 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
I was rushing to get to a meeting downtown on a sunny afternoon when a short girl in a hoodie and jeans tapped me on the shoulder. At first I was annoyed that I was being stopped on my way to the meeting, but as I turned around I saw that the girl held out a pack of my Sheriff cigarettes.
I just want to say thank you to the girl for running to give me back my cigarettes — I was really motoring! — and for not keeping them for herself. Even though they are $1 per pack Duty Free cigarettes, it surprised and gladdened me. Thank you

ing Company of Chicago, which also puts out an edition of the spurious "Protocols of the Elders of Zion," it is recognized as the organ of Harry Jung, notorious anti-Semite who until recently mulcted numerous prominent Jews under the subterfuge of using their money to fight Communism.
True's column, which appears under the heading "James True Says," is the only feature in this entire paper which is not given over to an attack on Jewry.
His only reference to Jews is made in a discussion of the Lindbergh kidnaping case, about which he writes in part:
"Although the kidnaper's buddy and probable companion in crime was a Jew, Dickstein promptly pronounced Hauptmann a Nazi and got the story widely circulated."
True quotes the Tageblatt, a Nazi newspaper, as authority for the charge that Hauptmann was an admitted Communist while in the Reich.
True openly champions only two of the antis—anti-Communism and anti-New Dealism. But according to John B. Snow, former statistician who now peddles anti-Semitic literature from an office in the suite of the brokerage firm of Reynolds, Fish & Co., the leader of America First! will soon embrace the third arm of the trident of animosity.
Powerful financial interests, who with few exceptions have thus far managed to escape discovery, are known to be behind organizations such as True's. Interested exclusively in discrediting the Roosevelt administration, they have willingly permitted their money to be used as anti-Semitic ammunition.
They have taken this course not because they themselves necessarily dislike Jews but because they have found Roosevelt invulnerable at virtually every other point in his armor. Unsuccessful in their other attacks on him, they have decided to try to arouse the non-Jewish public to a mistrust of the motives behind his tolerance and liberalism.
This interpretation of nearly every organized anti-Semitic drive in the United States has led investigators to make a determined effort to unmask the monied backing behind Snow, Robert Edward Edmondson and others of their ilk.
While their names are known in some cases, they have heretofore covered their tracks too carefully to permit disclosure of their roles in the under-cover warfare on the Administration.
Snow and others whose sympathies lie in similar channels hope to perfect a nation-wide web, with True or someone else who measures up to requirements as their recognized leader, before Government agencies catch up with them and destroy their hold on an increasing army of gullibles.
Whether they will succeed, it is believed, will depend largely upon the economic trend of the next two years

Pilots seeking an alternative to busy and expensive Austin-Bergstrom International Airport in Texas might want to try Bird's Nest Airport, 12 miles northeast of downtown Austin, which was purchased last October by Ron Henriksen, owner of the privately developed Houston Executive Airport. Since buying Bird's Nest, Henriksen has repaved the 2,750-foot runway and made other improvements. He plans to extend the runway, build a new entry road to State Highway 130, add a paved ramp with tie-downs, build new hangars, install airport lighting and build a fuel farm. "The Austin area is in dire need of a general aviation airport," he said. "I am looking forward to making Bird's Nest a destination for pilots in the Austin area who otherwise would have few options." At Houston Executive Airport, Henriksen Jet Center's new 26,000-sq-ft corporate hangar is open and accepting new tenants. The airport's runway extension to 6,610 feet was scheduled to open last month, if weather conditions were favorable for laying asphalt.
Improvements continue at alternate Austin Airport

We have now come to the place where little doubt remains that our president has relinquished his oath and/or loyalty to the American people. Many believe, like I do, that he really never had any, as we were immediately wise to his cunning lies when he mysteriously exploded onto the national scene in 2004. (psst…It's called Taqiyya!)
But today, as we witness our borders breached, Iraqi Christians being beheaded, Israel defending itself with USA official scorn, our veterans abandoned, our military demoralized, illegals being shipped across the nation with no end of the invasion in sight, years of ICE "catch and release" occurring, muslims exalted at the White House, and deadly communicable diseases at our doorstep with nary a peep out of the CDC, Christians in America are wise to the notion that Barack Hussein Obama most certainly is public enemy #1.
That's right. Our president is our enemy. Most won't admit it, many will cringe at the thought that I am saying this in a public forum, but really I am beyond caring about the pansy Twitter onslaught that is sure to follow from his minions. Bring it, miscreants! This #NinjaChick has your number!
The deep and grinding frustrations felt by most Americans (real Americans) offers shallow solace when we sense there is no stopping it. Could BHO be the Anti-Christ? is often asked in circles of eschatological wonder. He is certainly "an" anti- (against) Christ as we well know. You cannot be "for Christ" and willfully turn your back on Christians anywhere. But he has: in Egypt, in Syria, in Libya, in Iran, in Iraq, in Israel, in Gaza, and in America.
There is an all-out genocide occurring in Iraq TODAY and he has remained silent, instead he hails Muslims at a ceremony at the White House as if they have something awesome to offer us here in America. If we think that what is occurring with ISIS or HAMAS is meant to remain "over there" we are idiots. Plain and simple. The 9/11 terror attack was merely a black eye. They intend to do us a great harm, they intend to do us in, and Barack Hussein Obama has granted terror a green light.

The `package' form was supposed to be the nested-module form, along the lines of `module' in Chez. I've never quite got `package' right, though. I keep trying to implement `package' as a macro, instead of extending the core language of macro expansion. I still don't know how to make that work, but I haven't yet given up on the approach. Meanwhile, by convention, we put private modules in a "private" sub-directory. Usually, there's enough private code that we want a separate top-level module, anyway. To prevent untrusted code for accessing exported bindings, use the `protect' sub-form for `provide' and change the code inspector before loading the untrusted code. Matthew

With stocks extended and sentiment at extremes, the market has been taking a breather so far in 2014 with the major averages off to their worst start to a year since 2005.
Negative catalysts are beginning to reappear. Partisan rancor has returned to Washington and another debt ceiling fight looms as politicians cross swords over extending unemployment benefits. Emerging-market stocks are breaking down. The Federal Reserve looks ready for more tapering, pulling back on its bond purchase stimulus as interest rates rise.
As a result, more opportunities for stocks to sell and even short are popping up on my screens — with a focus on retailers. There's good reason for this: The 2013 holiday shopping season was a dud because consumers were pressured by stagnant wage growth and a higher cost of living that resulted in a dip in savings and an increase in borrowing. Without a turnaround in wages, this isn't sustainable.
According to ShopperTrak, store foot traffic dropped nearly 15% this holiday season, a huge decline from the 2.5% increase seen in 2012. Retailers also over-purchased, and given weak sales, are burdened with too much inventory. That'll pressure profit margins when Q4 earnings are released.
That sets up the following look at three retailers to sell or short right now:

The Gallery exhibits 'natural medium' art
Artwork created via eclectic natural media - wood, gourds and mushrooms - has sprouted in Nevis.
The Gallery opened on the corner of Main and Bunyan Trails Road this summer, featuring artists from across the continent - California and New York - and across the street - wood craftsman Ray Melander.
Business partners Steve Ahlquist and Pamela Kramer use mushrooms as their medium to create "artistic fungi."
The two left the metro behind, where Ahlquist had worked as a paint contractor since 1986, completing faux and traditional painting. When the economy turned sour, they headed north.
"We saw it as an opportunity," Ahlquist said. "We want to show art people may not have seen."
They invite kids to explore their abilities in the studio where they supply mushrooms and paint.
Southwest inspired decorative gourd art is on display as are pottery and watercolors. Artists are invited to demonstrate their work.
The Gallery showcases limited edition works on consignment, including artists Robert Bateman, Rick Kelley, Carl Brenders and others.
"In true artist fashion," hours do not follow those of a traditional business. The Gallery is open through mid-September from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday and Friday and 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday. The enterprise is closed Tuesday and Wednesday - "but come by and check, we're often there after hours," Ahlquist said.

Durban - The eThekwini Municipality spent almost R32 million repairing shacks that were razed by fires in the Clare Estate area, raising the ire of opposition councillors, who hauled city officials over the coals about the cost.
A report presented to the municipality's finance committee listing the various contracts awarded by the city as of the end of July, showed that R31.4m was paid to repair shacks after a fire disaster at the Kennedy Road informal settlement, and R952 000 at the nearby Burnwood informal settlement.
DA councillor Deochand Ganesh, a member of the city's finance committee, questioned the spending, asking whether the city was getting "value for money".
"With the amount spent on the Kennedy Road informal settlement, we could have built 180 RDP houses," Ganesh said.
"We should not be spending money on repairing shacks that are only going to be torn to rubble in a few years' time to make way for houses. The city needs to ensure that we spend ratepayers' money appropriately."
But city treasurer Krish Kumar said the amount paid was not only to supply residents with materials to rebuild their shacks, but to stabilise the sites around them.
He said part of the funding came from the provincial government. "The average spend per house is around R5 000," Kumar said last week.
It costs on average R90 000 to build one low-cost house.
The Kennedy Road informal settlement fire occurred in June, after a paraffin stove was knocked over in one of the shacks. The fire left 700 families destitute.
Those that could not be accommodated with family or friends were put up in the local hall and makeshift emergency shelters.
The Burnwood informal settlement fire in April was believed to have been caused by a spark ignited by an illegal electricity cable. Around 147 shacks were destroyed.

In the contemporary world, all developed economies are based on the system of private ownership. Over the course of decades and, in some cases, hundreds of years of development, these economies had undergone a gradual transformation from traditional to modern societies. In the case of the former Soviet Union and Eastern European countries, the introduction of a private system of ownership came very rapidly as their leaders reacted with immense frustration over the impoverished and underdeveloped state of their centrally planned economies. In China, however, the situation that has unfolded since the advent of the reforms in the late 1970s is completely different. Instead of trying to privatize the public system of state-owned enterprises, the focus has been on creating the necessary conditions for the development of a wholly separate private economy that would turn China into a rapidly developing though still transitional economy. The role that this rise of the private economy has played in the rapid growth in China is, therefore, an important topic for study. In her highly systematic and analytical study, Yang Xueye provides unique insight into these developments. Since the implementation of the reforms in 1978, the non-state sector has, she notes, grown much faster than the state-run economy and within the non-state sector the private economy has grown the fastest of all. By any account this is a valuable contribution to our understanding of the private economy in China.

What the heck is a dongle? Though it sounds vaguely like a new snack cake or kid's toy, it's neither. You may have seen the word in our blog posts ("the Sony Bravia KDL-60EX700 is a wireless-ready model that accepts an optional Wi-Fi dongle") and in ads ("The LG AN-WF100 Accessories Wi-Fi USB Adapter Dongle offers access to LG's NetCast content, such as Netflix, Skype, YouTube and more!").
As these statements suggest, a dongle is just an adapter you plug into the USB port on a TV, Blu-ray player, or home-theater system that allows it to connect wirelessly to your home network. Once connected, those devices can access the Internet content available to them, including streaming movie services such as Amazon Video on Demand, Blockbuster on Demand, Netflix, and Vudu; videos from YouTube, and more.
Also called a Wi-Fi adapter, a dongle can be very handy, because it means you don't have to run a cable from your TV to an Ethernet jack that could well be in another room. Some products may include the dongle with the TV or Blu-ray player, but in other cases you have to buy it separately, usually for around $80 or so.
Dongles are used with other gadgets as well, including phones and computers, for other purposes, such as Bluetooth connectivity.
Curious about this rather odd term, I checked out Merriam-Webster's online dictionary, which tracks the first use of the word dongle to 1981, defining it as "a small device that plugs into a computer and serves as an adapter or as a security measure to enable the use of certain software." M-W speculates that the word may be a variant of "dangle," since the device sticks out of the hub.
Webster's online dictionary debunks an amusing explanation: "In early 1992, advertising copy from Rainbow Technologies (a manufacturer of dongles) included a claim that the word derived from "Don Gall," allegedly the inventor of the device. The company's receptionist will cheerfully tell you that the story is a myth invented for the ad copy. Nevertheless, I expect it to haunt my life as a lexicographer for at least the next ten years."
More and more TVs and Blu-ray players are starting to offer optional wireless Internet connectivity, so you may see this word popping up more often. We're starting to include this information in our TV Ratings (available to subscribers).

The Shelf Life of Open Chicken Broth
How Long Will Chicken Broth Last in the Fridge?
Store-bought chicken broth is a staple ingredient in my kitchen, but the other day when I went to make soup, I did a double take. I couldn't remember the last time I used chicken broth and the container was open. Although the expiration date said November 2009, I wasn't sure if the stock was still good. After doing some research, I learned that once a box of chicken broth is open, it should be kept in the refrigerator for no longer than a week. The date on the outside is for an unopened box. Homemade stock will last in the fridge for four days.
Freezing both homemade and store-bought chicken stock will extend its life for about 60 days.

The Schecter Damien 7 FR is a great playing bolt-on guitar with pro features at an affordable price. The older brother of the Damien 6, the Damien 7 FR features a longer scale, a low B string to really get down, and a Floyd Rose Tremolo. The EMG pickups deliver solid punchy tone that will handle any high gain situation with ease. The unfinished maple neck is full and fast and the basswood body resonates with singing sustain. The Schecter Damien 7 FR is will surely keep up with the big boys and will even surprise the most veteran of guitarists with its personality and tone.
