Like so many others in the hockey world, Scott Hannan was blindsided by news from Anaheim.
While most of us were asleep, the Ducks found a way to fill a newspaper on their own Wednesday night by first beating the Montreal Canadiens during a rare visit by the Habs and celebrating it by firing long-time head coach Randy Carlyle and hiring Bruce Boudreau.
"Good for him to land on his feet after two days — that's an obscure stat, but it must the be the quickest a guy has gone into a new job," said Hannan, who played for Boudreau for most of last season after being dealt from the Colorado Avalanche to Washington Capitals. "He's a good guy. He makes guys feel good on the ice.
"He's emotional, both ways. He doesn't like losing, but when you're winning and things are going, he's good to be around because of his emotion."
Talk about a wild week in the NHL coaching fraternity with Boudreau (Washington), Paul Maurice (Carolina) and Carlyle all gassed in a matter of a couple of days. Throw in Davis Payne's firing in St. Louis, and we've had more coaches gunned already this season than all of the 2010-11 campaign — although five bench bosses receieved pink slips once the season ended.
What makes the Carlyle to Boudreau move in Disneyland so unique is that Boudreau was fired by one club and hired by another in less time than it takes for milk to go bad. We thought the Flames were bold by hiring Darryl Sutter a month after he was fired by San Jose in the 2002-03 season.
Then again, if Boudreau can turn things around in Anaheim in the manner his arrival in Washington went — he joined an under-achieving, highly talented Capitals team Nov. 22, 2007 and they posted a 37-17-7 mark from that point onward to win the Southeast Division — we may see more teams pulling the trigger because a guy who may fit their situation is suddenly available.
A familiar face in Craig Conroy was on the ice during a Flames practice this week. Conroy, now the special assistant to the GM, spent some time with young centres Roman Horak and Mikael Backlund to help them on their faceoff work. "All our centres are left handed, so they never get to practice against a right-handed guy," said Conroy. Anything has to help. The Flames are the NHL's worst faceoff team and by a substantial margin ... Yes, that was Keith Aulie paired with Dion Phaneuf to start the Toronto Maple Leafs game Wednesday night against the Boston Bruins. It's doubtful having those two together was to twist the knife in Flames fans over that disastrous trade, but sure has to be tough to take when you think the Flames now only have one player from that deal — Matt Stajan on the fourth line — and are paying half of Niklas Hagman's salary to play in Anaheim ... Prospect Max Reinhart is a long-shot to make Canada's entry for the World Junior tournament, but the Kootenay Ice centre has something special in his makeup that gives a great vibe about his professional future. Not only is Reinhart proving his playoff success last season was no fluke, but he has a great attitude about continuing that level of performance. "When I go into games, I believe in myself because I've done it before. That gives me a sense of comfort when I play a big game," he said.
We have to admit, it's fun tracking how fast Sidney Crosby is climbing the charts in the league scoring race. Even the anti-Crosby camp has to admit he is one special talent ... Between the groin injury suffered by goalie Kari Lehtonen and Brenden Morrow's back problems, it'll be a miracle for the Dallas Stars to stay in the top eight of the Western Conference for the next few weeks ... It has to be worth following the Florida Panthers more closely, even just to study how so many parts thrown together seemingly haphazardly can work so well ... Thrilled to see Vancouver Canucks forward Mason Raymond back in action after suffering a fractured vertebra in last year's Stanley Cup finals. Hopefully it doesn't take him long to have enough confidence to go through traffic ... Poolies take note, the Chicago Blackhawks have moved Patrick Kane back to wing on a line with Jonathan Toews. Marian Hossa is on a line with Patrick Sharp.
"Just went on the ice... Felt good. Hope to be back soon so everyone can stop telling me I'm messing up their hockey pool"

Chelsea move for Hulk, Juventus want Tevez & Aston Villa demand £40m for Benteke
Comment & analysis round-up
Quote of the day: "They are big shoes to fill here, because what David Moyes has done for Everton is incredible. There are six clubs at the top of the Premier League who work at a different financial level, and Everton had no right to break into that. It will be very difficult to get anywhere near to what he achieved, but I am excited by the challenge and I can build on what he has done. The Champions League is the challenge that comes with the title of being Everton manager. I feel you need to have that dream. At Swansea, I said the aim should be to get the club into the Premier League. It sounded impossible, considering we were in League One, but it happened." – Roberto Martinez.
Runner-up: "You have to earn your stars when dealing with players. It's up to you to show what you've got. If you want to work for me you need to be able to work seven days a week. I need to know my staff will give me that effort. Discipline has to come from within for players. And I'm a great believer in giving young players opportunities. Developing players mentally is very important, but it needs to fit with what the players want." – David Moyes.
Chelsea move for Hulk
Chelsea make £35million Hulk move after missing out on Radamel Falcao (John Cross, Daily Mirror) Jose Mourinho has made a stunning £35million move for Brazil forward Hulk. But the newly reappointed Chelsea manager is also facing his first major dilemma as Monaco and Galatasaray target his on-field general John Terry. Chelsea have turned to Zenit St Petersburg striker Hulk as a potential summer signing, having lost out to Monaco on No1 target Radamel Falcao, because they are now facing major competition for Napoli hitman Edinson Cavani. Ironically, the Blues were very close to buying Hulk last summer but could not agree a deal with his then-club Porto, who were demanding £40m. Hulk joined Zenit instead but the mega-rich Russians, believed to have paid in excess of £50m for his services, are already looking to sell and cut their losses after the 26-year-old's difficult first season.
United get shirty with Wayne
United get shirty with Rooney (Neil Custis, Sun) Manchester United have got shirty with wantaway Wayne Rooney. Not only have the champions turned down his transfer request but now they are using the England striker to promote their new kit. Rooney was yesterday unveiled in United's Nike home strip for next season. Despite having asked to leave the club twice in three years, he remains one of their most marketable players. And that is why Nike and United have used him to push sales of the new kit, which is on sale from today. How much longer Rooney, 27, continues to wear it remains to be seen. New manager David Moyes is on holiday and still to decide on Rooney's future.
Juventus want Tevez
Juve hoping to lure Tevez away from City if Italian giants miss out on Jovetic (John Edwards, Daily Mail) Juventus will step up efforts to sign Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez if they fail to prise Arsenal and Chelsea target Stevan Jovetic away from Fiorentina. Tevez has one year left on contract and City, as with Javi Garcia, Edin Dzeko and Joleon Lescott, are prepared to listen to offers as they look to continue recruiting with Real Madrid's Pepe and Malaga's Isco still on their wishlist. Jovetic, 23, is valued at £30m and Juventus fear they will struggle to beat Chelsea, particularly, in the bidding.
Aston Villa demand £40million for Benteke
Aston Villa slap £40million tag on Benteke amid interest from Spurs, Arsenal and Atletico Madrid (John Cross, Daily Mirror) Aston Villa have slapped an incredible £40m price tag on in-demand striker Christian Benteke. Villa boss Paul Lambert is hoping the jaw-dropping figure will scare off interest from Atletico Madrid, Arsenal and Tottenham. They are determined not to sell this summer even though there is a realisation they will not be able to keep 22-year-old Benteke in the long term. Atletico director general Miguel Angel Gil Marin has had talks with Benteke's representatives and claims he has had discussions with Villa over a potential summer move. Atletico boss Diego Simeone has identified Benteke as his No1 choice to replace Radamel Falcao who has gone to Monaco in a stunning £50m move. Spurs are also keen and Mirror Sport revealed yesterday that they are prepared to put Jermain Defoe into a player-plus-cash deal.
Roberto Martinez takes over at Everton
Everton: Five issues Roberto Martínez must tackle when he starts work (Andy Hunter, Guardian) Roberto Martínez will have to fight his corner, although the new broadcasting deal puts Everton's finances in a healthier state than they have been for some time. His tendency to paint the bleakest picture bright – for example, when he proclaimed that Wigan Athletic had been assisted by a set of results that meant they had to win at Arsenal to survive – will also be greeted far more sceptically at Goodison. That said, more optimism would not go amiss ahead of Everton visits to Anfield, Old Trafford, the Emirates and Stamford Bridge.
Mourinho on his Real Madrid bust ups
Jose: I've no regrets over Real bust-ups (Antony Kastrinakis, Sun) Mourinho: "I left because I think it's the best for me and the actual situation at the club. If I started next season, I would start with a series of problems that are dragging on. On Saturday, you had the maximum example of the dynamic and the objective of those problems. So it's best for everyone, including the players, who are the most important. They have to have the support and tranquillity of being able to start a new project with a new coach to whom I, — whoever it is, although it seems it will be Carlo Ancelotti — wish the best."
Same old story for England (U21s)
Italy's Lorenzo Insigne sinks England in Under-21 Championship opener (Stuart James, Guardian) The crucial blow came late but it was no more than Italy, and in particular Lorenzo Insigne, deserved on a balmy night in Tel Aviv, one which ended with England making the worst possible start to these finals. Outplayed for almost the entire match, they succumbed to a free-kick from the best player on the pitch, leaving them bottom of Group A and facing elimination if they lose to Norway – who drew 2-2 with Israel earlier in the evening – on Saturday. It was the first goal England Under-21s have conceded in 889 minutes of football and brought an end to a nine-match winning run. Questions will be asked about whether Jack Butland should have been beaten at his near post and also if the wall did its job but England could have no complaints about the outcome.
England youngsters outplayed by stylish Italy (Henry Winter, Daily Telegraph) If this was a glimpse of England's future, it was like watching an old film. Familiar failings were seen in the youngsters' deficiencies in technique, responsibility-taking and belief. For Andrea Pirlo dictating play against England at Euro 2012 read Marco Verratti at this European Under-21 Championship. Verratti was the deep-lying playmaker, launching attack after attack with intelligent, assured passes. The Paris St-Germain midfielder managed 120 passes, in contrast to England's best, Jordan Henderson, who made 44. There were painful echoes of Kiev where Pirlo's 131 (over two hours) for Cesare Prandelli's side contrasted with Ashley Cole's 44, the highest of Roy Hodgson's players.
Michael Ballack
Michael Ballack: a nearly man or an undisputed midfield genius? (Marcus Christenson, Guardian) On Wednesday night, in Leipzig, a former international will say goodbye to football. He won four Bundesliga titles and three German Cups. He won the Premier League title with Chelsea and three FA Cups. He represented Germany 98 times and was their captain for several years. Yet, somehow, Michael Ballack will perhaps always be seen as a loser. There was an arrogance about Ballack that – as he missed out on one major title after another – led to a lack of sympathy. The 2002 Champions League final, with Bayer Leverkusen, was lost to Real Madrid. A month later, Ballack almost singlehandedly took Germany to the World Cup final but, suspended, had to watch from the stands as Brazil won 2-0. Four years later, Germany lost to Italy after extra-time in the World Cup semi-final and in 2008 he was part of the Chelsea team that missed out on the Champions League final to Manchester United on penalties.

(Response to old post)
According to a recent poll, two out of three New Yorkers say that, given the choice, they would rather live somewhere else. But all of them have the choice, and none of them live anywhere else. A proper summary of the results of this poll would be: two out of three New Yorkers lie on polls.
Ordinary people do not interpret the statement "given the choice" to mean "under at least one circumstance where it is not physically impossible". That's not an example of revealed preferences or inconsistency--it's an example of real people not acting like Internet geeks.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan on Thursday held talks with Congress president Sonia Gandhi on the issue of his election to the state legislative council, which is necessary for his remaining at the helm of affairs in the state.
Chavan met Gandhi soon after his arrival in Ner Delhi and also held talks with her political secretary Ahmed Patel.
Maharashtra MLC Sanjay Dutt, who has expressed his willingness to vacate his seat for the chief minister was also present during the meeting with Gandhi.
Dutt has five years and three months left of his tenure in the council while Chavan has four years more in the Rajya Sabha.
Dutt has put no conditions for resigning in favour of Chavan.
Maharashtra Pradesh Congress Committee chief Manikrao Thakre has met central leaders over the last two days and has reportedly talked to them about the willingess of nine MLCs, who were ready to resign to make way for the chief minister to become a member of the legislative council.
Chavan arrived in New Delhi on Thursday evening in the backdrop of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh virtually blaming him for omitting to mention the charge-sheeting of P J Thomas during
the appointment of the Central Vigilance Commissioner.
Highly placed party sources, however, dismissed speculation that Chavan has been summoned by the top leadership in the wake of the observations by the prime minister.
The sources said Chavan is in New Delhi for consultations on the issue of his becoming an MLC within six months of his taking over as chief minister.
Chavan was made chief minister over three months back replacing Ashok Chavan in the wake of the Adarsh Housing Scam and a decision on his becoming an MLC needed to be taken fast.

TREVOSE, Pa. — Research has shown that three in four women will experience candidiasis, more commonly known as a vaginal yeast infection, and 67% are embarrassed by it, Insight Pharmaceuticals announced Wednesday, citing an independent survey commissioned for Monistat.
"Yeast infections are a perfectly normal part of life for women," stated Jennifer Moyer, VP marketing for Insight Pharmaceuticals. "A yeast infection doesn't mean you did anything wrong; it's like getting a cold. Yet our survey confirms that most women feel embarrassment about having a yeast infection. That's adding unnecessary distress to a normal condition … so we are on a quest to end that embarrassment through education."
The survey, conducted by Harris Interactive, found that less than half of women surveyed (45%) feel comfortable talking openly about yeast infections with a friend. By contrast, the majority of women felt at least somewhat comfortable discussing menstruation (85%) and urinary tract infections (82%) with friends. Close to one in ten would not be comfortable talking openly about yeast infections with anyone, even their doctor.
Many women also think that suffering from a yeast infection is a cause for judgment: close to one-third (29%) of respondents indicated that they would be at least somewhat worried that other people would judge them if they knew they had experienced a yeast infection.
"We see many patients who are experiencing yeast infections, yet we find that women are often embarrassed to discuss their symptoms during appointments," stated Allison Hill , OB/GYN and member of The Mommy Docs, a group of three doctors featured on the Oprah Winfrey Network's "Deliver Me," as well as a forthcoming eponymous series on public television. "As OB/GYNs, we see and hear everything. There is nothing a woman could reveal to us that would surprise or upset us, so there should be no reason for patients to be ashamed of having a yeast infection."
Other survey findings indicated that there are many misconceptions surrounding treatment options. More than one-third (36%) of women believe that yeast infections can be cured using a feminine cleansing product or cream designed exclusively to relieve itching and other symptoms; in reality, such products do not do anything to treat the infection. Furthermore, more than one in five women (23%) believe that yeast infections can only be cured with prescription treatment. However, Monistat 1 provides relief from symptoms as soon as four hours after the first dose, which is four times faster than the leading prescription treatments, Insight Pharmaceuticals noted.
"While we always recommend that women visit their doctor if they're experiencing a yeast infection for the first time to confirm the diagnosis, the condition is easily cured with over-the-counter treatments such as Monistat," Hill said. "Most yeast infections take around seven days to be completely cured, but if symptoms don't subside after a week, one may be experiencing another infection such as bacterial vaginosis, or an STD such as gonorrhea or chlamydia. In that case, a woman should see her doctor to confirm that it isn't something more serious."

- I'm glad you asked. We at Newkraft know there are many servers to choose from out there. Our goal is to make sure you get to enjoy Minecraft the way it was meant to be played, doing as you please without the annoyances that many other servers bring you.
- You will never again deal with arrogant staff ruining your fun and ultimately taking away from the experience you deserve!
- You will be able to build as you please without the worries of being griefed by claiming land in your Faction territory. Yes, you won't have to live 10,000 blocks from spawn underground surrounded by lava!
- You will be surrounded by a welcoming community and friendly staff eager to help you. We at Newkraft ensure that you will be in a comfortable and welcoming environment, upon arrival!
What kind of server is this?
- We consider this server to be a hybrid of Survival and Freebuild. You will be expected to survive, gain materials, and carry out the typical Minecraft exprience like you usually would, but you can build whatever your heart desires without fear of it being griefed.
- We found that the typical Minecraft experience, when it comes to survival, often involves players bringing out their animal instinct and mainly focuses on surviving. We wanted to change that.
- Seeing as Minecraft is a sandbox game, we wanted players to be able to open up their creative side, and freely build structures and houses. The feeling of building an impressive structure is what we strive to achieve here at Newkraft.
- Freebuild is often called "Creative-in-survival". Many of us like earning the materials we use to build, as well as plain old-surviving and making farms and all of that jazz! But we also like to use that hard earned material to build fantastic houses, villages, and whatever our heart desires, without the worry of it being taken away by nasty griefers!
Why use Factions rather than Towny? Or other land protection tools?
- Perhaps you noticed we have the [PVP] tag in our title. We believe PVP does add to the experience in Minecraft, but we also understand not everybody wants to take part in this PVP. Thus is the reason for Factions, it allows some Factions to be PVP oriented, and attack other people participating in PVP in the wild or in enemy territory.
- Don't worry there are ways to make your faction peaceful and unable to be attacked. Just talk to a staff member and they will set this up for you.
- Factions are also a fun part of Minecraft, recruiting people to your faction and becoming one of the largest out there is always fun. Just remember, don't go crazy inviting every person you see unless you plan on making sure they won't grief you, some people might have bad intentions!
- But don't worry, report a grief and we'll take care of that low life villain! As well as restore your hard earned property!
I'm sold on this server! But before I join, what are the rules?

Whether you have an iPad or iPad 2, you may be interested to know that Apple didn't completely remove the ability to enable the extra multitouch gestures originally scheduled for inclusion in iOS 4.3. What they did is make the process unintuitive. But no worries, let me tell you how to unlock the ability to enable multitouch gestures. It's not that difficult, and contrary to some info floating around the net, you can do it for free.
Other than an iPad (with iOS 4.3+ installed), you'll need a Mac for this to work. That shouldn't be hard for most of you. You'll need a Mac because you'll need to have XCode, which is only available for Mac. Now, you might have heard about this method already and you're probably thinking, "Is this really worth the $5 that you'll have to pay now that Apple charges for XCode on the Mac App Store?" Well, turns out you don't need the latest version of XCode for this to work. Yes, you can pay the $5 for XCode 4 if you want to, but XCode 3 will suffice. Apple still serves up XCode 3 online for free. All you need to do is register at Apple's Developer Connection site. You can do this for free too.
After you've registered/logged in, download XCode 3. Then, go make a sandwhich because it's going to take a while.
Now, plug in your iPad, open up XCode, go to the organizer window and click on your iPad in the side bar under devices. On the Summary tab you'll see a button that looks like this:
Just click "Use for Development." At this point, XCode will ask you to log in to the iPhone Dev Center to search for iPhone Provisioning files. You likely don't have any, but logging in with your AppleID that's linked to the Dev Center will suffice. It might throw and error at you, but don't worry about it. That's it. Now, by default, multitouch gestures are enabled. If you want to double check, you can go to Settings.app and see for yourself under the General section.
So, what can you do with these multitouch gestures? I'm glad you asked. If you swipe up with four or five fingers, the multitask bar will appear. If you swipe left or right with four or five fingers you'll switch between apps in order on the multitask bar. This is a very quick way of jumping from one app to another—probably the most useful feature here. Lastly, if you pinch with four or five fingers, you'll be brought to the home screen.
I just tried this out and I have to recommend you do the same. These gestures are very helpful, and I feel I'll be using them constantly from now on. In fact, I wish something similar could be accomplished on iPhone, though I'm not sure if four finger gestures are really efficient on such a small screen. But for iPad, it's great. If I had to rate this on the Coldstone Creamery scale of perceived necessity, it would definitely be "gotta have it."

Quins are not even in the Premiership play-offs yet, but fly half Nick Evans knows lifting the title will taste sweeter than the club's maiden success in 2012.
The 33-year-old former All Black was the catalyst for Sunday's comeback at Exeter Chiefs that saw his second half try and further scores from Danny Care and Tom Guest help his side come back from 23-5 down to pip their hosts 30-29 for a bonus point victory.
It means a win over Bath at the Stoop on Saturday will land them a top-four finish in a campaign that has seen director of rugby Conor O'Shea's team ravaged by long-term injuries to a host of first choice stars.
Quins won the Aviva Premiership two years ago, having topped the table for most of the season, and Evans admitted that coming from behind to repeat that feat this season would be a moment to savour.
"It would be a huge achievement," he said.
"We'll give it our best shot.
"We've got a huge amount of team spirit and when you battle back from that adversity and get to the top it is the greatest feeling."
The Quins injury crisis saw winger Ugo Monye deployed in the centres earlier in the season, but he marked his return from injury in his favourite position with a fine first half try on Sunday.
O'Shea's men left it late to secure the spoils, but Evans reckoned that could play in his side's hopes this week.
"Momentum is huge in sport and we have got a bit of that," he added.
"In quarter-final rugby anything can happen and hopefully we will take our chance."

LOS ANGELES — V for Victory. V for Vigneault.
The Rangers were relentless here on Monday night, taking the body, pursuing the puck and playing with passion that was missing in Thursday's opening 4-1 defeat to Phoenix, to thus record a 3-1 triumph over the Kings for the first victory of the Alain Vigneault Era.
"It's big for everybody in the organization and it's good for Alain," said Brad Richards, who scored twice and played a spirited game. "We believe in what we're doing every day, but it never hurts to get two points on the board.
"It was night and day from a week ago as far as our compete-level and battle-level. We played with a lot more desperation. [Phoenix] was not a trademark of how we played the last couple of years."
Probably not at all a coincidence, but the indefatigable Ryan Callahan made his season debut after missing Thursday's opener, and he immediately put his inimitable stamp on the game — and on his team — by throwing two hits within 19 seconds on his first shift of the match.
It was Callahan being Callahan while also setting an example for his teammates.
"It was a little bit of both; me trying to go out and get a couple of hits to create energy for the team and me just playing the way I do to get myself into it," said the captain, who missed essentially all of the second period after getting clipped on the jaw by Anze Kopitar's stick.
"Our compete-level was something we addressed as a team after the first game. We were much better in that area and in our one-on-ones."
Vigneault downplayed the significance of getting his first victory as coach of the Rangers — the 423d of his NHL career — but he did not downplay the significance of having Callahan in the lineup.
"It was my first time seeing him live as his head coach, and he brings a lot to the table," Vigneault said. "His poise with the puck, his competitive nature, the way he finishes every check.
"For a player who's not a big size, he plays a really big game."
Callahan's effort was contagious. Rick Nash elevated his game, dominating shifts with a physical presence. Brian Boyle played to his 6-7 size. The Rangers hunted down pucks, creating turnovers and winning battles all over the ice.
And Henrik Lundqvist was outstanding in net, battling through traffic in front in a 28-save performance that featured several one-on-one stops in close.
"In Phoenix I felt I was doing the right things but it's hard to feel good about it when you don't get the result," Lundqvist said. "The last couple of days my practices and timing were a lot better."
Richards scored the game's first two goals, both times after the Rangers had created turnovers. His first came on a sharp-angle rebound of a Nash wrist shot to give the club a 1-0 edge at 13:32 of the first period with his second for a 2-0 lead at 10:46 of the second a redirect off L.A. defenseman Slava Voynov's stick as No. 19 attempted to thread a two-on-one feed to Derick Brassard.
"I liked the way Richie was competing, and worked real hard to get the puck when he didn't have it," said Vigneault, who then praised Nash's performance after having said on Saturday he needed "Nash to be Rick Nash."
"He was pretty good tonight; I thought he was all right," Vigneault said when asked if No. 61 had indeed been No. 61, smiling broadly and chuckling at his own understatement.
The Kings cut the margin to 2-1 at 12:11 of the third when Jake Muzzin took advantage of a Rangers' turnover to beat Lundqvist from the left circle on a four-on-four, but the Blueshirts regained two-goal edge at 4:39 of the third when Ryan McDonagh's 180-foot shorthanded bank shot somehow glanced in off a mortified Jonathan Quick.
"Obviously that was a little bit lucky, but it's part of the game," Vigneault said. "You need a little bit of luck in this game."
But, as Lundqvist said, the Rangers "deserved to win." They didn't luck into it. Now they face the Sharks in San Jose on Tuesday, the Ducks in Anaheim on Thursday and the Blues in St. Louis on Saturday before heading back to New York to regroup before four more on the road.
"With the week we have ahead of us, it was big," said the goaltender.
"It definitely was a game we can build on."

A strike of bus drivers in several Westchester school districts that was expected to start Monday has been averted, according to the union that represents the drivers.
The strike, which would have affected the Yonkers, Mount Vernon and New Rochelle school districts, was called off Saturday after a tentative settlement was reached between Transport Workers Union Local 100 and the company that employees the drivers, Mile Square Bus.
The nearly 500 workers--inclusing mechanics and matrons in addition to drivers--planned to strike because they had not received raises since their contracts ran out five years ago. The workers were demanding a $2 to $2.50 dollar-per-hour raise.

The photograph above represents a portion of our centuries old 170-acre farm, which is located on Bellus and Baptist Corner
roads in Ashfield, Massachusetts.
CHRISTMAS TREESAlthough previous generations of this family raised sheep and milked cows, we -- the 3rd and 4th generations -- farm this rolling
and hilly terrain by growing 32,000 Christmas trees on 40 acres.
Varieties grown include Balsam Fir, Concolor Fir, and Fraser Fir. In the spring, we plant 4-year-old trees into the main fields,
fertilize all trees, and monitor for insect damage, fungal diseases, and root rot in all fields. The majority of the summer is spent
trimming and shaping the trees, with time out to mow between the rows to control vegetation and weeds. Fall finds us grading
trees according to size and quality, and preparing for the harvest. We harvest anywhere from 900 to 3000 Christmas trees per year, selling to both wholesale and retail markets.
MAPLE SYRUPTo round out our farm life, in February we set about 1200 sugar maple taps, gather the sap, boil it down, and produce a delicate
flavored maple syrup to be sold.
HAYIn mid-June and mid-August we cut, rake, and bale hay from 24 acres. Our hay is fine-textured and an excellent feed for cows,
horses, goats, or sheep. Because we don't have room to store all the hay we make, we encourage folks to pick up their hay directly from the field at a discount.

Early and Recent History and Genealogical Records
of Many of the Representative Citizens
MICHAEL J. MURPHY. It is indeed hard to find among our cosmopolitan civilization, people of better habits of life, taking it all in all than those who originally came from the fair Emerald Isle or their immediate descendants. They are distinguished for their thrift, wit, consecutive industry, patriotism and loyalty, and these qualities in the inhabitants of any country will in the end alone make that country great. One of the well-known engineers of the Frisco is Michael J, Murphy, who has long resided in Springfield, a man, of Celtic blood and of the second generation of Irish in America. He hails originally from the Crescent City of the far South.
Mr. Murphy was born on January 1, 1861, in New Orleans, Louisiana. He is a son of Michael D. and Dorothy Ann (O'Dwyre) Murphy, both born, reared and married in Ireland and there resided until 1854, when they emigrated to the United States, first locating in New York state, then, in 1859, went to New Orleans, and in 1861, when the Civil war began, they came north to Rolla, Missouri, when our subject was an infant. In 1847 Michael D. Murphy took part in the Smith-O'Brien rebellion. He escaped and went to Australia, and after a separation of seven years rejoined his wife, and they came to America. He was a railroad levee contractor. His death occurred in September, 1872, at Rolla, this state. His widow subsequently removed to Springfield, where her death occurred in 1892. To these parents four children were born, namely: Jeremiah, Charles E., Mary, are all deceased, and Michael J., of this sketch.
Mr. Murphy, our subject, had little chance to receive an extensive education. However, he is a self-made man. On April 1, 1879, he went to work for the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad Company in a stone quarry at Rolla, later coming with an extra gang to Springfield and helped put in the foundation for a turntable and roundhouse at the North Side shops. In 1880 he was given a position as fireman out of Springfield and was promoted to freight engineer in 1889, and to regular passenger engineer in 1901, and has retained this responsible position ever since, being regarded by the company as one of its most efficient and trustworthy engineers. His present run is between Springfield and Newburg.
For three years he traveled as special representative of the Frisco in fourteen different states, and did his work most acceptably. Since August 15, 1914, Mr. Murphy has been devoting his time on the "Safety First" movement in accident prevention for the conservation of human life and limb of the employees and patrons of the Frisco system, and because of the increased cost of materials used and consumed by the railroads and the increased cost in taxes, interest and wages and the decrease of 33 1/3 per cent in passenger revenue and decrease of 21 per cent in freight revenue, due to the two-cent passenger fare and the maximum freight rate in Missouri, resulting in placing the Frisco and other Missouri railroads in a position where their earnings are not sufficient to meet cost of, operation and maintenance, interest and taxes, the roads are forced to retrench and cut down expenses. This could only be done by the laying off of men in shops, in the office and in the bridge and building departments and the purchase of less material, such as ties, ballast, steel rails, bridges, and building materials. This retrenchment on the part of the railroads placed over forty thousand wage-earners, skilled and unskilled, idle, leaving them unable to purchase the necessaries of life, which in turn affected the retail and wholesale merchants and producing classes of the state. To overcome those conditions and to start the wheels of progress moving, to find employment for the idle men, Mr. Murphy on February 3, 1915, organized the Railway Employees Protective Association, and by and through this organization in the state of Missouri secured the signatures of bankers, farmers, merchants, manufacturers, and members of organized labor to petitions aggregating in the whole the signatures of over 750,000 of the above citizens of Missouri and mailed those petitions and signatures to the members of the Forty-eighth General Assembly of Missouri asking for a repeal of the maximum 2-cent passenger fare, restoration of the 3-cent passenger rate, and that the public service commission of Missouri to adjust and grant a fair equitable equalization of rates in Missouri, and for the future Mr. Murphy will be engaged making this movement nation wide in its scope, so that capital will be encourage to invest in railroad securities, so that the credit of the railroads will be restored, so that capital and labor will be in a position under wise and just laws, state and national, to furnish the transportation facilities so essential to the future development of the internal resources of Missouri and of the nation as a whole.
Mr. Murphy was married on September 27, 1887, in Rolla, Missouri, to Mary A. Powers, a native of that city. She is a daughter of James and Winifred C. (Condron) Powers, both natives of Ireland. They spent their early days in their native land and finally emigrated to the United States. Mr. Powers was in the employ of the Frisco Railroad for a number of years. His death occurred on July 10, 1878, in Rolla. Mrs. Murphy's mother died in Springfield on May 19, 1900. The wife of our subject was reared and educated in Rolla, attending the public and Catholic schools.
To Mr. and Mrs. Murphy two children have been born, namely: Charles Edward, born on August 20, 1888, in Springfield, was educated in the public and high schools here; he is a machinist by trade and is living at home. Blanche May, born on January 11, 1890, in Springfield, attended the local public and high schools and later business college; she married C. N. King, who is with the International Harvester Company, and lives in Little Rock, Arkansas. Mr., and Mrs. King were married on May 10, 1910, and one child has been born to them, Jack Weldon, whose birth occurred on January 19, 1911.
Politically Mr. Murphy is a Democrat. He is a member of Ozark Division, No. 83, Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. The Murphy family are members of the Roman Catholic church. They own a fine and neatly furnished home on North Main street, Springfield.

Lincoln, Mass. (PRWEB) October 01, 2012
Walleye Technologies announced today that the company has entered into initial production, and is taking orders for the Model 24S Surface Penetrating Imager. The Walleye imaging system is the first handheld, active millimeter wave imager to be offered commercially. It is capable of penetrating opaque material and presenting the image of hidden objects to the operator on an LCD screen. The battery-powered instrument uses harmless non-ionizing millimeter wave (less than 1/1000th that of a cell phone) to see into and through opaque surfaces, exposing hidden objects concealed behind cloth, wood, wallboard, cinder block and some composite coverings.
The Walleye Surface Penetrating Imager has applications key to corrections and homeland security operations. The 24S provides a non-destructive, non-contact solution for screening upholstery in vehicles, mattresses and clothing in prison cells. It is also suitable for screening personnel to clear alarms produced by traditional security equipment such as magnetometers, millimeter wave and X-Ray portals.
"This new product places powerful new scanning capabilities directly in the hands of security professionals at a price that is a fraction of the cost of stationary portal solutions and X-ray systems." says Chris Adams, CEO of Walleye Technologies. The 24S imager can be taken to the point of use, opening up a range of applications for field use where imaging capabilities were not previously available. It is a cost-effective, flexible, light weight and easy to use solution. Operators can hold in one hand imaging technology previously only available to security professionals using high priced portals and fixed scanning devices. .
About Walleye Technologies
Walleye Technologies develops next generation hand-held portable imaging systems capable of "seeing" into and through solid objects. The company's patented imaging technology platform generates high quality images in diversity of applications for corrections and security markets.

MIAMI -- The Miami-Dade School Board on Wednesday approved a $1.7 million settlement for the family of a teenager fatally slashed by a classmate in a middle school restroom.
Jaime Gough, 14, died Feb. 3, 2004 at Southwood Middle School of more than 40 stab and slash wounds to his neck, face and hands.
Michael Hernandez, now 15, had blood on his clothes and a bloody knife in his backpack when he was arrested in class after the school was locked down when the body was found.
Gough's parents sued the Miami-Dade school district for wrongful death.
The family will immediately receive $700,000, the board agreed Wednesday, but the state Legislature must pass a special claims bill before the district can release the $1 million.

Something's been gnawing at me since the first show this season. Cheryl seems really ill at ease around Ian when not dancing. She only rarely looks at him, even when Samantha is interviewing them, or one of the judges or Tom is speaking to her and Ian. With Emmitt last year, and Drew the year before that, when either of those was speaking, Cheryl would look at them as they spoke, occasionally nodding at what they said, smiling at them while they spoke, and just generally paying attention to what they said. There was definate interaction and body language that showed interest in what Drew and/or Emmitt were saying. With Ian, she keeps her back to him, keeps more space between her back and her partner's chest when standing that way, (more than she did with either Drew or Emmitt, that is) and when Ian speaks she doesn't look at him, she keeps her head and eyes forward, not really acknowledging him. And when he does his rubbing of her arms like he does, you can see that she ever-so-slightly stiffens up a bit. I'm really getting a strong impression that she doesn't like this guy that much... or at the very least, as much as she did Drew and Emmitt. In fact, a couple of times in interview portions with Sam on Monday's show, it was like watching a deer try to escape the headlights while he was holding her arms. Of course, when the dance starts, it's different, she comes alive as only Cheryl can. But when the dance is over... hmm. I've always thought he was a super icky rodent, but that was my own personal opinion of him, but watching Cheryl's body language and reactions around him when not dancing, I really have to wonder if she's not feeling a bit like that, herself. When you play back a tape of them during the interview stages, and seeing them in the background during other team interviews, and turn off the sound to concentrate just on her face and expressions.. it really is pretty obvious.
I'd like to be wrong, but I'm not liking the effect Ian appears to be having on Cheryl

And Then There Were None A remote island. One lonely house. Ten guests who've never met their host. And a creepy nursery rhyme called "Ten Little Soldiers," which tells how each little soldier gets bumped off. When the guests start dying, one by one, the plot thickens like clotted cream, because the murderer must be one of them. The Alley Theatre's annual "Summer Chills" production revisits an old audience favorite — make that, chestnut — Dame Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None. This ingenious murder mystery, one of her most successful, was first published as a London newspaper serial (1939), then as a novel (1940), then adapted as a play (1943). Her American publishers wisely changed the title from the original, insensitive and absolutely politically incorrect one: Ten Little N-----s. The Alley supplies Miss Christie's devious twists and turns with enough polish and sheen to make this musty diamond sparkle as if it were dipped in Windex. And the actors, just as polished, relish play-acting their stereotypical characters — the wily old veterans practically rub their hands in glee. The lightning flashes and thunder peals, while candlelight ominously lights up the faces of those not yet dead. The ten characters: the callow youth (Adam Van Wagoner), the battle-ax of propriety (Jennifer Harmon), the crusty judge (James Black), the war-beaten general (James Belcher), the sensible young woman (Josie de Guzman), the suspicious servants (David Rainey and Anne Quackenbush), the rash love interest (Todd Waite), the timid doctor (John Tyson) and the lower-class copper (Jeffrey Bean). Everyone overdoes it with just the right amount of stiff-upper-lip Englishness, but they never play down to the material. They pay their respects to the great Dame. As a playwright of disarming, genteel mayhem, Miss Christie knew just what she was doing. This stage mystery is like being tucked under a soft old comforter, safe and warm, while others are stabbed, shot and poisoned at the foot of the bed. The horrors of life get put in their place, neat and in a row, and we wake up feeling satisfied that the wicked get punished and the sort-of good people get their reward. It's not life in any conceivable sense, but it's very fine theater — perfectly spun for summer. Through July 31. 615 Texas, 713-220-5700. — DLG
Buddy — The Buddy Holly Story Buddy Holly was a rock-and-roll pioneer who died tragically in 1959, at the age of 22, in a plane crash that also killed Richie Valens and J.P. (The Big Bopper) Richardson, on the way to their next gig. Stephan Krosecz as Buddy has the requisite youth, a good voice and is eminently likable. He fills the lead role credibly, though he hasn't found the inner authority of a musical genius nor captured the body language of Buddy as a performer. Brian Chambers plays drummer Jerry Allison, as well as Ritchie Valens, with engaging fun, and Sam Sigman portrays the Bopper with power and a magnetic stage presence. Todd Greenfield as an M.C. has great timing and delivery and also portrays bassist Joe B. Mauldin. Kurtis von Krueger plays guitarist sidekick Tommy Allsup with quiet effectiveness, and Marissa Viso is beautiful and appealing as Buddy's wife Maria Elena. Buddy's stint at the Apollo Theatre in Harlem lets us see Norris T. Thompson II as a singer with an eye for the ladies, in a standout performance that is hilarious and captivating. Matt Zipko plays several roles well, and dances up a storm as a backup dancer. While many of the songs are by Buddy — "That'll Be the Day" and "Peggy Sue," among others — the evening's renditions include of course "La Bamba" for Valens and "Chantilly Lace" for the Bopper. The entire endeavor is extraordinarily ambitious for a small theater troupe, and directors Sean K. Thompson and Arnold Richie are to be commended for tackling it, and pulling it off. UpStage Theatre's production is, all in all, a glorious, flawed celebration. It's not really a play at all, though it sketches key events, but is one of the first jukebox musicals. The skits by Alan Janes that bridge the songs often lack pace and finesse, though the groundbreaking music is so toe-tapping that it hardly matters. Through July 30, UpStage Theatre at Lambert Hall, 1703 Heights Blvd., 713-838-7191. — JJT
The Miss Firecracker Contest Despite not being a raving beauty, and past the first blush of youth, Carnelle (Melanie Martin) has her Southern heart set on entering the contest which her blond cousin had won at the age of 18, and her determination includes dying her hair to match her costume. The show opens with her practicing her "routine," which has the comic gravity of patriotic genius as she coordinates dance steps with imagined sparklers and roman candles. Martin, aided by her dance experience, succeeds in making us care for Carnelle, and has us pulling for her success in the competition. Stephanie Kelso plays a seamstress named Popeye (the reason is very funny) who enters to take measurements for the costume, and gives a strong performance, especially as she falls head-over-heels in love-at-first-sight with Carnelle's cousin Delmount, just released from a stay at a mental institution. Jeffrey Dorman plays Delmount, and enriches the role with such riveting body language that he comes close to making the play about himself instead of Carnelle. In a more minor role, Lidney Molnari plays Mac Sam, a ladykiller with supreme self-confidence despite excessive smoking, drinking and the occasional coughing up of blood. Kristy Morris plays the blond cousin, and has the looks and skill for an effective portrayal, but is a bit too mannered and a bit too involved with her own performance to tune in to the other characters. Since both Dorman and Molnari create triumphant characters with rich body language, credit must be shared with director Anita Samson and assistant director David Samson, who either inspired the characterizations or had the wit to unleash the actors. The goal of playwright Beth Henley was fun, and she has succeeded in spades in finding the excitement, tension and humor in small-town aspirations. Company OnStage has done well in finding talented actors to bring this play to exuberant life. Through July 30, Company OnStage, 536 Westbury Square 713-726-1219. — JJT

Smokey Joe's Cafe Smokey Joe's Cafe is a quasi-romantic, nostalgic tour of some of the classics of songwriters Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller. It has no plot or theme, but instead generates the flavor and feel of returning to visit a favorite bar of one's youth — except that the strong and melodic six-piece band here is better than a bar is likely to have, and the nine entertainers kick up more of a storm than the old neighborhood could provide. Much of the credit goes to the distaff side, with Kenyatta Herring commanding the stage with a powerful presence and an outstanding voice. Her simple, quiet rendition of "Fools Fall in Love" is especially powerful. Sofia V. Mendez has a nice turn of phrase, and effectively sells the comic songs "Don Juan" and "Some Cats Know." Blythe Kirkwood is the blond bombshell with a good voice and wonderful stage presence, and is a knockout in "Teach Me How to Shimmy" — especially in a silver tinsel minidress that seems to have a life of its own. Christina Stroup is a brunette beauty with a strong voice, but more gestures could add color to her vocal delivery. The men team up as an ensemble, but also have their own chance to shine. Chioke Coreathers handles his solos well, and shows considerable acting skill in some amusing byplay with Kenyatta. Aaron Phillips projects appealing sincerity, and does well in "Spanish Harlem" with Sofia. Damon Price has the best moves in the group. Mark Jackson works well with the others but seems a bit more casual, with a shade less passion. Cole Ryden seems a bit too fresh-faced for the nightclub atmosphere — I wondered if he should have been carded — but he redeems himself in an exciting "Jailhouse Rock." The second act, with more solos, is considerably stronger than the first. There is a too-brief saxophone solo from Ray Gonzalez in the band — I would have liked to see more showcasing of the talented musicians. Piano was handled by Luke Kirkwood, who also served ably as musical director. The choreography by Lauren Dolk keeps the cast in fluid motion, without being especially inventive. The costumes by Tiffani Fuller are serviceable without any pretense to be more than that — except for the unforgettable tinsel dress. Guest director Dan O'Brien keeps the pace enthusiastically brisk. Previous shows at Texas Rep such as Plaid Tidings had more sparkle and snap in the dancing, but that may build here as performances continue. This is mainstream entertainment, front and center, with little nuance or subtlety. It does what it's meant to do: give us a good time without requiring much effort from us, and in this it succeeds admirably. Through July 24, Texas Repertory Theatre, 14243 Stuebner Airline Rd., 281-583-7573. — JJT
