When Engineer Chase Polacek gave Rensselaer a 2-0 lead at the end of one by scoring on two of RPI's three first-period shots, the conclusion of this game seemed to be inevitable. While a 4-3 victory was Rensselaer's final destination, their journey was anything but routine.
The Wolverines outshot the Engineers 46-13, came to within one twice, tied it with seven minutes left in regulation and held all of the power-play advantage in the third. After this one, RPI coach Seth Appert sounded like the guy whose team came from behind, rather than the coach whose team had never trailed.
"I think there were some games leading up to Christmas where we've outplayed our opponents and found ways to lose," said Appert. "Tonight, we got outplayed in terms of the territorial advantage and found a way to win, and that's an important part of the learning process of becoming a winning program."
Rensselaer goaltender Allen York had 43 saves in his seventh win of the season and was especially impressive in the third period, when UM had five power plays — including two full minutes of five-on three advantage — and through which the Wolverines outshot the Engineers 21-4.
"It's not the recipe for success, to give a team like Michigan five power plays in the third period, including a full five-on-three, but I think any time you come out on the road … you tend to get calls against you," said Appert. "I'm not saying that there's favoritism, but when there's twelve-, thirteen- thousand fans and you're playing a team of their stature, that's just the way it goes. You need to learn how to win in spite of those situations. We let them back in the game a little bit with some of those penalties.
"It wasn't our best effort tonight. I wasn't particularly thrilled with how we played, but we found a way to win with a very good game in goal and a lot of blocked shots and a gutty effort on penalty kill."
Polacek scored at 2:01 and 19:54 in the first. His first goal was a back-door tip-in of Paul Kerins's initial shot from the top of the slot, and the second came from the left point through a screen. The shots were the first and third of the game that Michigan goaltender Bryan Hogan faced. Michigan has the second-best penalty kill in the nation.
"That's maybe the strength of our team has been our penalty killing and the first two power plays they score on," said UM head coach Red Berenson. "I can't tell you they were pretty plays or pretty goals, but the puck went in. It's frustrating, disappointing."
The Wolverines found the net for first time on David Wohlberg's goal at 13:26 in the second on a nice feed from A.J. Treais, but RPI led by two again just over three minutes later when Kerins scored at 16:43. Kerins skated the puck into the Wolverines' zone and threw it innocently at the UM net from near the blue line; Hogan fumbled the catch and the puck went up and over his glove to make it 3-1 at the end of two.
The third period began with Shawn Hunwick in the Wolverines' net. Hunwick hadn't played since March 14, 2008, a game in which he'd seen just three minutes of action.
"You're trying to spark your team a little bit," said Berenson of the change in net. "You just can't keep going if your goalie's having a bad night or if he's just not in sync."
The change did the Wolverines good, as they tied the game by the 12:04 mark. At 2:57, Carl Hagelin scored with the two-man advantage, picking up his own rebound and putting it over a prone York, who appeared shaken up but continued playing.
Then at 12:04, freshman Kevin Lynch scored his first career goal to tie it 3-3, scooping in Hagelin's pass.
Any resulting momentum, however, was short-lived. Appert called time and told his team exactly what it needed to hear.
"This team has had a great ability to be very resilient," said Appert. "We've put ourselves in situations we probably shouldn't be in and that's our immaturity still, but we are resilient.
"All I said at the timeout — it wasn't anything dramatic — I just said, 'If I'd have said at the beginning of the game that we'd be playing in front of ten- or twelve-thousand fans against Michigan and it was tied with seven minutes to go, we'd probably be pretty excited, so let's have fun with this, let's enjoy it, and let's embrace the opportunity.'"
At 12:50, Engineer Marty O'Grady sniped a shot from the bottom of the right circle, beating Hunwick high between the UM goalie's shoulder and the right upright to give RPI the 4-3 lead and eventual win.
"We give up four goals and that's too many to win a game, two on their power play and two bad goals," said Berenson. "Hoagy should have stopped the third goal and Hunny should have stopped the fourth goal. It's one of those things. You can't look back."
Hogan made six saves on the night, Hunwick three. The Engineers finished two-for-four on the power play; UM went one-for-eight.
RPI (10-9-1, 3-4-0 ECAC) advances to the title game at 7:35 Tuesday night against Michigan State, who beat Michigan Tech 10-1 in tonight's opening contest.
"I think they're going to be tired from all their shooting," said Appert. "That's the plan at least."
The Wolverines (9-10-0, 5-7-0 CCHA) will play the Huskies in the consolation game at 4:05 p.m.
"We came here to get in the championship game number one, and then try to get their name on that banner again," said Berenson. "That's why everybody comes here, but us in particular, we've got something to prove, and we didn't quite prove it tonight."

Apart from Warner flexing its rock catalogue and some wannabe labels it has practically zero industry support. How may labels have signed on to DVD-A this year? Any? It should have been strangled at birth.
Are SACD and DVD-Audio in a format war or not?
Industry representatives for both SACD and DVD-Audio claim they are not in a format war with each other. Do you disagree with them?
I really feel that they play to two different crowds. DVD-A attempts to capture the same group of people that will use it as an extension of their home theaters, whereas SACD is going after the audiophile. DVD-A has more mid-fi gimmick appeal, SACD is high end. SACD seems to be touting the "best sound or reproduction", DVD-A is going to capitalize on the family's need for the latest. As Forrest Gump would say, "and that is all I have to say about that!"
I own both. SACD is a superb high resolution music-only format, while DVD-Audio offers not only high-resolution music, but music videos, on-screen lyrics, photo galleries, video interviews, etc. In short, SACD is audio-only, while DVD-Audio is audio and video. I LOVE and support both formats!
Opps... The way you phrased your question, the answers you provided do not make sense. The answers you should have provided are: "Yes, there is no conflict!" and "No, this is war!" You have them backwards.
Who cares about the Elcaset of Y2K+2? I'm happy as a clam digitizing my LPs. At some point, the music biz may realize that their not in the business of selling things, but music. Then they'll give us high def downloads via the Internet. Imagine the money they could make if they'd charge 6 bucks per 24/96 album -and no watermarking!
It's a war, but so far, both camps seem unwilling or unable to launch an all-out assault on the marketplace. I mean, where are the digital outputs on the players, so consumers can use the same bass management, channel balance and time delay dsp that they use now? And where are the new-music recordings by mainstream artists? And last but not least, where is the concensus on how to record in multichannel? (Engineers, producers and artists who locate instruments and voices in the back channels should have mixing board twiddling rights revoked!)
Format war? What format war? The only format war that is visible from a consumer point of view is the war between CD and MP3 (and between the consumers and the Big Five). DVD-A? SACD? As a consumer, I have never heard of them!
Of course this is war, they can't both survive on a large scale any more than Beta and VHS could or CD and vinyl. One has to go. Its time to get in the trenches and get this squabble over with. Come on Fremer, it's paint balls from ten paces. Ive had enough of this vinyl nonsense! Shiny silver discs rule!
No, there's no format war. This isn't VHS/Beta, because back then, consumers, in general, actually cared and were lining up behind one or the other. High-Rez digital is a solution in search of a problem, and that's why there is no war because, for most people, neither format is an object of desire. This is not to say that DVD-A or SACD aren't goodit's just that any consumer oriented format is consumer driven, not audiophile driven. The audiophile community, in the broad scope of consumers, is no more that the size of a flea on an elephant's butt.
Both formats hold promise, and yet, neither deliver. Obsessed by paranoia and greed, the book-cooking companies have forgotten about content, sound quality, fair pricing, and fair treatment of those who make music. As long as copy-protection schemes and MC confusion take priority over art production and sound quality, I'll invest only in Red Book software and gear. I hope for a true Renaissance in music recording, including the now defunct radio.
Neither format is strong enough yet to support an all out war. I keep saying it most people do not like the idea of 5, 6 or even 7 speaker hanging all over their living space. Two speakers are hard enough to place in many instances. Since these new formats depend mostly on the advantages of multi-channel sound they will never ever be as popular as two-channel stereo.
The PR spin may say there is no war, but let's be realistic, the content providers know that one will win and one will lose. Some may think that universal players are the solution, but retailers are not going to stock triple inventory (CD, DVD-A, SACD) for every title. The implications would be a drastically reduced selection for consumers or higher inventory and carrying costs (and higher prices). Of course this is a war. In order for high-rez audio to succeed in the marketplace, one of these formats has to succeed and so long to the runner-up. I'm betting on SACD because a "fully loaded" disc with CD, 2channel SACD, and multi-channel SACD all on one disc just makes so much sense. The DVD Audio consortium has recently come out in favour of 5.1 DVD-based players for cars. What? we're going to have to upgrade our car systems too? I don't think so. DVD-A is still-born. In the greater Toronto Area (over three million people) there's hardly any DVD-Audio software out there. A visit to the big downtown record stores will produce just a handful of titles. SACD isn't much better. The sooner one of these formats dies off, the sooner I will consider buying a high-rez player. Until then, my two year old Linn Genki is serving me and my 400-plus CD collection very well, thank-you.
I say not sure due to the lack of promotion of DVD-Audio. Plus the scarsity of software is apalling! Damn it, hasn't Sony made enough from its royalties due to the CD? [Isn't that reason enough to hate the SACD?] I've heard nothing about which is the better sounding that is definitive. Shame on the magazines for this!! But bet on this, 10 years from now, there willbe another "latest & greatest." Disgusting!!
No one outside of places like this cares. The average person has never heard of either format. Until they reach the saturation level of LP's, cassettes and CD's, this is just the el-cassette and DCC all over again.
Of course they are not in a format war! You need large numbers of troops to wage a war, and I have yet to meet someone who has enlisted in either camp. I guess the format war is not on home ground yet. Maybe they are competing to see who can sell less of a new audio format?
Until DVD-A disks contain a Red Book CD layer (is that even possible?), there is no war or conflict. Hybrid SACDs will run DVD-A out of town should they ever be produced at a level even hinting at mass production! DVD-A has to flood the market with inexpensive hardware - car audio, boomboxes, walkmen, etc. That's the only chance. The public, however, sees DVD dash anything to equal movie though, so education will be steep and probably insurmountable.
Just wish there were more smoke and flames . . . . WE NEED SOFTWARE! I've heard both sound very fine, but the SACD decks were introduced as super audiophile and have for me so far outstripped the ability of the DVD-A decks to sound their best. More puh-leez! And in spite of the "Let's get along" attitude of both format pushers, it is a warfor your pockets! No doubt about it!
I used to think there was a format war going on, but I was wrong. Now I perceive there's pent up demand for both SACD and DVD-A, and both will thrive when we get more hardware and software on the market, granted also the copy protection B.S. gets cleared out of the way. I'm noticing that quite a few otherwise apparently adequate new format playback units don't do HDCD, so that might be the format that's to perish.
SACD being an audio only format I really don't see any conflict. I intend to purchase both DVD-A and SACD players. Although I only one rig, it is heavily biased towards music. My neighbors like the surround sound with movies and TV, so do I for that matter. When it comes time for music it's straight thru the preamp with no buggering of the signal. I will admit I have not heard DVD-A's on a good rig and I may change my mind when I do. For now it's 2 speakers good 4 speakers bad.

Ontario's Liberals have edged past the Progressive Conservatives in support among likely voters, an Abacus Data Poll shows.
Kathleen Wynne's Liberals lead with 36%, Tim Hudak's PCs are close behind at 33% and Andrea Horwath's NDP are in third with 24%.
Abacus Data Inc. CEO David Coletto said the results haven't changed dramatically from previous polling but do show Liberal Leader Kathleen Wynne shored up some of her support during last week's campaigning.
A deeper analysis of those numbers reveals any of the three major parties can win the June 12 election, he said.
"There's still lots of potential for swing in particularly Liberal support," Coletto said Monday. "They're firming it up but it's also probably the most open to change."

Teva Could Lose Exclusive Rights to Narcolepsy Drug
Teva Pharmaceutical Industries received rights upon acquiring U.S. company Cephalon in October.
Teva Pharmaceutical Industries could lose exclusive sales rights to a narcolepsy drug it received when acquiring U.S. company Cephalon in October.
Rival company Mylan has received tentative U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval to sell its generic version of narcolepsy drug Nuvigil, a Cephalon drug that is patent-protected until 2024 (unless Mylan's patent challenge in court is successful ).
Cephalon sued Mylan in the United States and France back in 2010 for alleged patent infringement over Nuvigil.
In any case, Mylan can't start selling its copycat version of the narcolepsy treatment until 30 months from the day Cephalon sued it, or until - if - it wins the patent trial, whichever is sooner. The 30-month count expires in August, which is when Teva could lose exclusivity over marketing the drug if Mylan goes ahead and launches. Theoretically, Mylan is risking a loss in the patent case.
Nuvigil sales totaled $111 million in the first half of 2011. Teva projected sales of $300 million of the drug this year.
Narcolepsy is a sleep disorder that causes excessive sleepiness, especially when the sufferer is engaging in monotonous activity.

Bradford Closes Year with 11 Bills Signed
The legislative year officially closed at midnight Sunday evening, as the deadline for Governor Jerry Brown to sign or veto legislation passed. When all was said and done, Assembly Member Steven Bradford (D-Gardena) sent 14 bills to the Governor's desk, with 11 coming away with a signature.
"This was a great year, not just in terms of numbers, but in terms of getting significant, important, meaningful legislation passed that will benefit my constituents and all Californians," Bradford said.
Those bills covered a number of important areas, including public safety, expanding access to critical technologies for low-income Californians, utilities transparency and efficiency, and criminal justice reform.
"I thank my colleagues and the Governor for recognizing the importance of addressing these critical issues," Bradford continued. "Whether we are expanding access to solar energy and broadband Internet for low-income families, protecting bicyclists on our streets, or addressing our 70% recidivism rate, this package of bills will move California forward, making us more equal, competitive, and safe for generations to come."
"California is getting back on track," Bradford continued. "After the success we had this year getting so many important pieces of legislation passed, I am excited to see what we can accomplish next year."

American Apparel the American clothing company known for its racy ads, is in trouble - yet again - with a U.K. advertising regulator, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) for printing a "voyeuristic" advertisement featuring a young-looking model revealing her underwear.
The ad, which appeared on the back cover of Vice Magazine, pictured a girl wearing a sweater, knee-length socks and underwear posing on a chair with her legs raised. Two complainants said the ad "appeared to sexualize a child" and was "offensive and irresponsible".
American Apparel argued that the average person would not find the "tame and tasteful" image offensive, according to the ASA website. The clothing company said the ad was not "overtly sexual" or inappropriate, as it was placed in an adult magazine, and the model is over 18 and wearing products intended for adult consumers.
While the ASA accepted that the ad was intended for an adult audience, they concluded it "appeared to sexualize a child" and banned the ad in the U.K.
The amateur style of the photo, the posing of the model with her legs up on an office style chair with her knickers showing and the unsmiling expression on the model's face meant the photo would be interpreted as having sexual undertones and a voyeuristic quality."
American Apparel, known for its raw and sometimes disturbing ads, received ongoing complaints made against it in 2012 via the ASA for sexual imagery.
The ASA stated the company breached rules against social responsibility and harm and offence in the Committee of Advertising Practice Code.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. - Eric Mangini had the New York Jets in first place a month ago, a special season shaping up for a franchise sorely in need of one.
Four losses in five games dashed the Jets' Super Bowl hopes with a thud, and cost the coach his job.
Mangini was fired Monday, a day after New York failed to make the playoffs despite an 8-3 start and having an NFL-high seven Pro Bowl selections.
Behind quarterback Brett Favre, the Jets beat New England and Tennessee on the road in consecutive weeks, raising visions among fans of the team's first Super Bowl trip since 1969. New York controlled its playoff fate while sitting alone atop the AFC East before the late-season free fall.
The 37-year-old Mangini went 23-26 in his first head coaching job, and had another year remaining on his contract.
Crennel out, Cowher not coming to Browns
BEREA, Ohio - Barely into another massive rebuilding project, the Cleveland Browns have already moved to Plan B.
Plan A - or Plan Cowher - has been scrapped.
Browns owner Randy Lerner made his second major move of the offseason Monday by firing coach Romeo Crennel, who lost 40 games in four seasons, never made the playoffs and went 0-8 against Pittsburgh, the only full-time Cleveland coach to go winless against the archrival Steelers.
Crennel's dismissal came less than 24 hours after Lerner fired general manager Phil Savage following a 31-0 loss in Pittsburgh.
The Browns, who began the season pegged as one of the NFL's rising teams and ended it at 4-12 and in last place, began their offseason with a disheartening loss.
Bill Cowher isn't coming to Cleveland.
The jut-jawed former Steelers coach and No. 1 target on Lerner's coaching wish list told the Browns he is not interested in joining them.
During a meeting on Saturday night in New York, Cowher, who has worked as a studio analyst for CBS since stepping down following the 2006 season, informed Lerner he has no intention of returning to coaching in 2009 and asked to be taken off the list of possible candidates.
Lions fire Marinelli after winless season
ALLEN PARK, Mich. - Rod Marinelli will be remembered as the first and perhaps only coach of an 0-16 team in NFL history.
If someone recognizes Marinelli for that dubious distinction in the future, he won't put up a fight.
"I'd accept it and move on," Marinelli said Monday being fired by the Detroit Lions. "I wouldn't give an excuse and I wouldn't give an explanation."
Even on Marinelli's way out, he wouldn't blame former president Matt Millen for making his job moot because of the talent-deprived roster he had for three seasons.
"I've said it all year long, 'It starts with me,"' he said.

Russian Emil Sayfutdinov has confirmed he will not race again this season
Britain's Tai Woffinden has been virtually handed the world title after Emil Sayfutdinov confirmed his season is over.
Last Updated: 16/09/13 10:02am
The Russian star suffered major arm and knee injuries racing in Poland at the end of August.
That ruled him out of the Slovenian Grand Prix which allowed Woffinden, who was already leading the world standings, to extend his lead to an almost unassailable 20 point lead.
With two GPs left in 2013, there was still some hope that Sayfutdinov would return to mount some sort of challenge.
But now he has revealed that he will not race again and in a statement on his official website, Sayfutdinov said: "Dear fans, I would like to inform you that, unfortunately, my 2013 season has ended. Despite intensive rehabilitation, I will not be 100 percent healthy and ready to start again this season.
"In view of the fact I still have many years of my career to go, my health is most important to me, so I decided I will not come back if I am not fully healthy.
"I am already preparing for the new season to be able to win once again and I'm working on a lot of gear for my teams and the Grand Prix. I wish you all a pleasant winter and see you next season. Emil."
This now means Woffinden is closer than ever to becoming the first Brit to win the title in more than a decade.
If he has a 22-point advantage or more over his nearest rival whoever that may be after Saturday's GP in Stockholm, he will be world champion with a round to spare.
Sayfutdinov will be replaced in the Swedish capital by SGP second reserve Leon Madsen.

While some acts inadvertently garner comparisons to soundtrack sound, others blatantly churn out the most derivative claptrap possible in order to snag a mega-lucrative inclusion on a hot original soundtrack. Some model their noise after non-existent, imagined films while still others are sought after for their ability to mirror the intent, feel, heart, and guts of a real movie with their accompanying music. It could be said that Damon Gough has faired a bit better with film tunes than commercial releases since his classic Badly Drawn Boy debut album, Year of the Bewilderbeast, in 2000. The wildly popular experience with About a Boy must have struck some the right way and have felt pretty good to the Badly Drawn Boy himself because he has offered his writing abilities to another album of "music taken from and inspired by" a motion picture. Is There Nothing We Could Do? features songs from/inspired by The Fattest Man in Britain, a television movie written by Caroline Aherne ("The Royle Family") and Jeff Pope that is due to air over the Christmas holidays in the U.K. due date for the album is December 14.

"Great product!" Mr Power
20 June 2017
I LOVE THESE and i'm in to buy more! I have no idea why so many people moan about this product. Before you fill it with anything, you know it's silicone and moves about, so nobody can say they are surprised if water comes out of it from a sink to a freezer. At no point have i needed anything to use other than these and my freezer isn't in my kitchen so i have to go further. They do the job they are needed for with ease and i can't believe how easy it is to get the cubes out, once they're frozen. Use common sense when buying these and remember they aren't rigid!

Tired Moulson fits in with Sabres right away
Matt Moulson had never been traded. The experience was a bit of a whirlwind – finding out Sunday and getting a car to the airport at 4:30 Monday morning to arrive in Buffalo in time for the Sabres' morning skate before suiting up for a game against the Dallas Stars.
But in all honesty, the hockey is the easy part.
"I don't think me, personally, I worry about the hockey too much. I'll play the same no matter where I'm going," Moulson said Wednesday morning. "It's the family aspects that are the tough part."
The 29-year-old Moulson is the father of two – including George Benjamin, who was born Oct. 11. His wife, Alicia, stayed back in New York with their newborn son and 14-month-old daughter.
"Hopefully they'll be able to get out here as soon as possible," Moulson said. "I don't think my son can travel for a few weeks. We'll wait until then and then figure things out.
"That's why I married a strong woman. She'll be taking care of the family. I'll be concentrating on hockey. We've dealt with things off-ice before that haven't affected me on the ice. That's what being professional is about. I'll miss them but I'll be concentrating on hockey."
Moulson doesn't see fitting into his new hockey family as a difficult transition. Monday morning he quickly got into the groove playing on a line with Cody Hodgson and Tyler Ennis. On his second shift as a Sabre, Moulson took a pass from Ennis on a 3-on-2 break and slapped the puck into the net, tying the game with Dallas, 1-1.
He added a second goal late in the second to pull the Sabres within one, but the Stars came away with the 4-3 win. But his performance, which included a few other excellent scoring chances and supplying a dynamic energy that was noticeable in the building, was something positive to build on. All this despite the fact he had been on the go for about 15 hours.
"My wife always says I play my best games when I'm tired so I'll have to stay up to two in the morning every day I guess," Moulson said.
He can stay up as late as he wants if he continues to spark the Sabres' lackluster offense. Moulson had three straight 30-goal seasons with the New York Islanders and netted 15 goals with 29 assists in last year's lockout-shortened season.
And Wednesday night, he showed just what he can bring to the Buffalo franchise.
"He's a hockey player. It goes back to he's a hockey player," Sabres coach Ron Rolston said. "In every zone he's solid. Plays his position. Got pucks out on the wall. Makes little plays through the neutral zone. Gets to the net. Give and go. He's a hockey player. That's all I can tell you. He's good and I'm glad we have him."
For his part, Moulson said he was excited about the opportunity to work with a young team while continuing to play his style of game.
"When guys are in this stage of this career like many of the guys here, it's exciting," Moulson said. "They're young with a lot of raw talent. It's exciting to be part of a group like that. I'm ready to go.
"I don't think there's much adjustment. I'm going to go out there, play hockey like I always do, try to score goals and I'm sure I'll be around the net as usual. I don't venture too far from there. Hopefully that will be a familiar spot for me tonight."
But how long will Moulson be here? He had been with the New York Islanders since the team signed him as a free agent in 2009. He was in the last year of his contract and will become an unrestricted free agent at the end of this season.
"I just take it day by day," Moulson said. "Being from Mississauga, I'm well acquainted with Buffalo. I used to love coming to Bills games. It's a great city and who knows, it could be for along time. We'll see what they have in store."
The Sabres took part in the Hockey Fights Cancer program Monday night, an NHL-wide initiative to raise money for and awareness of cancer research.
Among the events, Sabres players used lavender tape on their sticks, some of which will be auctioned off at the Buffalo Sabres Alumni Wine Festival on Nov. 2 to benefit the Janis Foligno Foundation.
Over the past two years, the Buffalo Sabres Hockey Fights Cancer fund has donated $10,000 to Flashes of Hope, an organization dedicated to finding a cure for children's cancer.
Members of Camp Good Days along with patients from Carly's Club, ECMC, Roswell Park and WNY Hospice Essential Care watched the game from suites donated by the Sabres organization while Jason Nipcon, a pediatric cancer survivor, dropped the puck for a ceremonial opening faceoff.
Patrick Kaleta will not appeal his 10-game suspension to an independent arbitrator, according to several reports. NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman upheld the 10-game suspension issued to Kaleta for his hit to the head of Columbus Blue Jackets' Jack Johnson.
Monday was the ninth game of his 10-game suspension.
The independent arbitrator is a new feature for players under the latest collective bargaining agreement and has not been used by any player to date.
While Kaleta only has one more game to serve, he could have recovered money lost if the arbitrator had reduced the suspension.
Jamie McBain and the suspended John Scott sat out for the Sabres. Scratched for Dallas were Ryan Garbutt, Kevin Connauton and Travis Morin.

Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) has introduced essentially the same bill he sponsored in the 114th Congress (S. 3153). The new bill, S. 366, would require federal regulatory agencies to take risk profiles and business models of institutions into account when crafting regulations.
Rounds is a member of the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs.
"It is the first step in achieving a truly 'bifurcated' regulatory system by which traditional community banks are treated differently than their larger brethren when it comes to applicability of federal banking rules and regulations," OBA President and CEO Roger Beverage said.
S. 366 would also require a review of regulations issued in the past seven years and a report on how they might be better tailored. If the review finds regulations issued since 2010 do not conform to the TAILOR Act, the agency would be required to revise those regulations.
Sen. Rounds issued the following statement:
Financial institutions across South Dakota have been negatively impacted by burdensome, unnecessary regulations because of disproportionate compliance costs since the passage of the Dodd-Frank Act in 2010. Excessive costs and regulatory hurdles continue to hurt consumers the most.
The TAILOR Act would ease the regulatory burden on smaller financial institutions so they can focus their resources on taking care of their customers, rather than spending time and money on compliance, the costs of which are ultimately passed onto the consumer in South Dakota. I look forward to working with my colleagues on this important legislation so our smaller financial institutions are better able to meet the needs of families and local businesses.
The concept of the TAILOR Act was introduced in both the House and Senate in the last (114th) Congress by Sen. Rounds and Rep. Scott Tipton (R-Colo.). The bipartisan TAILOR Act cleared the House Financial Services Committee earlier this year. A new House version of the bill is expected to be introduced soon.
"South Dakota is home to some of the smallest and the largest banks in the world, with wide variations in their business models," said Curt Everson, president and CEO of the South Dakota Bankers Association. "Bankers from those institutions agree that today's one-size-fits-all regulatory scheme doesn't make sense. We applaud Sen. Rounds for introducing the TAILOR Act to start the conversation about matching bank regulation to risk."
The TAILOR Act would additionally require federal regulatory agencies to provide an annual report to Congress outlining the steps they have taken to tailor their regulations.
The TAILOR Act also requires regulators to conduct a review of all the regulations issued by the agencies since the 2010 passage of the Dodd-Frank Act. If the review finds that the regulations issued since 2010 do not conform to the TAILOR Act, the agency would be required to revise the regulations.

The lights are on
At the upcoming Japan Expo in Paris, France, the legendary game designer Hironobu Sakaguchi will be showing off a surprise new project.
Sakaguchi left Square in 2001 and formed a new studio named Mistwalker. At Mistwalker, he's overseen the development of the excellent RPGs Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, and The Last Story.
Sakaguchi will be speaking next Wednesday at Paris Expo, which is held at the Paris-Nord Villepente Exhibition Center outside of Paris.
[Source: Japan Expo via Destructoid]
Our Take:Anytime a designer as well known as Sakaguchi announces a new project, it's new. It will be interesting to see if it's a traditional console project or in the mobile or free-to-play markets.

Unrest - New Trailer & Update
Pyrodactyl Games has a new update for their RPG Unrest on Kickstarter. In the update we get news Chapter 3 is nearly finished, and the developers will be at EGX Rezzed.
No big updates--Chapter 3's almost finished, everything else continues pretty much according to plan. But we do have a new teaser trailer showing off some of our environments and interface elements on YouTube, and if you've got one minute and one second to kill, we've got just the one minute and one second to kill it with.
Notice how those trees are moving? That was so brutally hard that our team doesn't even want to talk about it. Making games is weird, man.
Want to see Unrest live without breaking into Arvind's house and guessing his password (currently oppan_gabenstyle)? Come to our stream next Sunday at 3PM GMT! Alternately, get your ticket to EGX Rezzed--running in Birmingham from March 28-30--and see the developers who aren't me in person! I mean, if that's the sort of thing you'd like to do. I wouldn't take any offense. I wouldn't take much offense. I wouldn't actually do anything about it, anyway, is what I'm getting at.
Thanks daveyd for the link.

A topic that's hardly fresh, granted, but it's interesting to note Sam Smyth's piece in the Indo on how the Government here have not been claiming tax from visiting acts. Here's a snippet.
Top Irish bands cannot understand why they pay taxes when touring abroad but the Government does not levy taxes on international artists when they appear in Ireland. U2 Paul McGuinness said the retention tax was levied on touring artists in every other country and Louis Walsh manager of Boyzone and Westlife believes it has cost the Exchequer "hundreds of millions". A spokesman for the Irish Department of Finance admitted last night they had not implemented a double taxation treaty on visiting artists that became law 33 years ago.
If this is the case why do we continue to pay exorbitant costs compared to countries who implement these tax charges?
Lets compare like with like. Tickets for Leonard Cohen's concerts in The O2 this July go on sale next Tuesday morning, the cheapest tickets start at €90. Those shows take place on July 19 & 20. Less than a week beforehand he plays Liverpool's Echo Arena. According to Ticketmaster, prices there start at £55, or €60.70 according to xe.com as of today, Friday April 3.
Bob Dylan's worth a look too. He plays The O2 on May 6, tickets start at the general admission price of €49.80, but for London's O2 they start at £37.50, or €41. Now, there is not that much of a price difference in this instance but yet again the crux of Sam Smyth's piece must be remembered:
The Department of Finance have NOT been claiming the retention tax for visiting artists. Despite this, our concert ticket prices remain amongst the highest in Europe.
Which shifts the question to promoters who have cited high running costs in the past for the increased prices for Irish punters. Unfortunately the print media in this country, already suffering from the loss of revenue from ads for property, may not be willing to put that question to the companies who fill their entertainment supplements with ads and dish press passes to their reporters.
The natural progression from this revelation in the Indo is why exactly we pay more to see acts who are charged additional fees to appear in other countries? Unfortunatley there may not be anyone loud or influential enough who are willing to ask the questions.

Written on: 30/08/2013 by nombie (1 review written)
I booked a holiday around 3 years ago with beach collection. Long story short I had to change the names on the tickets. After spending 4.5 hours (in total on hold) and phone bills in the 100's between my and my GF this was at a time where they had a 0844 number and would keep you on hold for ages. I think the record was 1hr and 10 min! I would never use this company again and will do everything in my power to ensure no one else experiences this.
Its very funny that most of the positive reviews are anonymous and make reference to specific member of staff. If you were leaving a review for a travel agent, why would you name the staff member. Very odd don't you think?
Written on: 04/09/2013
I noticed that, as you have said very fishy. This company are probably the worse I have come across for luring customers in. In their email they state that they will contact you within 72 hours to discuss finalising your holiday. Most people by then (72hrs) would have probably told family, made arrangement and possibly paid for airport parking/hotels etc. This company aren't stupid, that's how they catch people out

Shanghai, 1936 was a crossroads for political intrigue, refugees escaping turmoil, gathering military forces, international business, and underworld culture. Two people caught in this maelstrom forge a bond on the brink of the Japanese invasion: a beautiful Russian countess (Natasha Richardson), reduced by circumstances to supporting her family as a bar girl and taxi dancer; and a blind former diplomat (Ralph Fiennes), devastated by the loss of his family in political violence and disillusioned by the world's inability to make peace. The story revolves around The White Countess, the elegant nightclub he creates to shut out the chaos and tragedy that surround him. Kazuo Ishiguro (The Remains of the Day) wrote the screenplay for this final production from the team of James Ivory and the late Ismail Merchant.

(SportsNetwork.com) - With a chance to grab a share of first place in the Central Division, the Colorado Avalanche try to extend an eight-game point streak on Thursday night when they visit the Vancouver Canucks.
The Avs are on a 7-0-1 tear and have pulled within two points of the division- leading St. Louis Blues with three games left for both clubs. The Blues also are in action on Thursday as they visit the Minnesota Wild.
Colorado also is trying to hold off the third-place Chicago Blackhawks, who are two points back of the Avs but have just two games remaining in the regular season. The Blackhawks are idle tonight.
The Avalanche bounced back from a shootout loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins by besting the Edmonton Oilers 4-1 on Tuesday. Defenseman Erik Johnson put Colorado ahead for good, scoring on an individual effort 12 seconds after the Oilers had tied the game at 1-1 in the first period.
"Anytime you're a team where you score and the other team comes out the shift after and scores right after it's definitely a buzz kill and a momentum killer," said Johnson. "We controlled the pace of the game, the entire game, after that and maybe that was the reason why. Maybe not but it definitely felt good to get that go-ahead goal at that time."
Tyson Barrie, Jamie McGinn and Paul Stastny all scored for the Avalanche, while Ryan O'Reilly and Nathan MacKinnon both had two assists. Jean-Sebastien Giguere made 22 saves.
Colorado picked up a victory in the opener of a season-ending four-game road trip and also will visit San Jose on Friday and Anaheim on Sunday.
While the Avs are already assured a playoff spot, the Canucks are set to miss the postseason for the first time since 2007-08. They had won five straight Northwest Division titles in that span, but have struggled this season in the new-look Pacific Division following realignment.
Vancouver lost for the fourth time in five games on Monday, with the 3-0 loss to the Anaheim Ducks officially knocking the Canucks out of the playoff race.
"It's been a while, we're disappointed for sure," Canucks defenseman Kevin Bieksa said. "The last few weeks have been very disappointing."
Eddie Lack was tagged for all three goals on 23 shots in the loss for the Canucks.
Repercussions were felt the following day when team president and general manager Mike Gillis was fired on Tuesday. Vancouver then hired former team captain Trevor Linden as the president of hockey operations and alternate governor on Wednesday.
The Canucks will wrap the regular season with a trip to Edmonton on Saturday before hosting Calgary the following day.
Though the Canucks and Avs have split two meetings this season, Vancouver is 19-1-3 over the previous 23 meetings and Colorado has dropped nine in a row as the guest in this series.
The Avalanche's last victory in Vancouver came back on April 6, 2010, a 4-3 shootout triumph.

Third-party groups join chorus clamoring for 2011 federal budget
Friday, April 16, 2010; 4:07 PM
For congressional Democrats hoping to avoid the political hits involved in writing a budget this year, not writing a budget is proving to be nearly as painful. All week, Republicans have been accusing Democratic leaders of shirking their duty to face up to the nation's budget woes. On Friday, outside budget groups began to join the chorus.
In news releases, nonprofits such as the Concord Coalition, which advocates for balanced budgets, and Public Notice, a new organization by former Bush administration trade spokeswoman Gretchen Hamel, called on lawmakers to reconsider.
"WHERE'S THE BUDGET?" blared the release from Hamel's group, which bills itself as nonpartisan.
"Families across our nation have faced serious economic challenges this year. They faced these challenges head on by sitting down at the kitchen table, adding up the numbers, and making the tough choices," added Diane Lim Rogers, chief economist for the Concord Coalition who blogs as EconomistMom. "No family should expect to succeed by throwing the budget out the window and hoping for the best. Congress shouldn't either."
The criticism comes as House Democrats are trying to decide whether to craft a budget plan in advance of this fall's midterm elections. Many lawmakers, particularly fiscal conservatives from Republican-leaning districts, are reluctant to vote for a budget blueprint certain to forecast large deficits in each of the next five years.
Last year's deficit hit $1.4 trillion -- a postwar record, and about 10 percent of the economy -- and this year's deficit could be even bigger. The deficit is expected to drop slightly in 2011, the fiscal year currently before lawmakers. But the administration predicts that the lingering effects of the recession and President Obama's plan to extend some Bush-era tax cuts past their scheduled expiration this year will keep deficits hovering above $700 billion -- or about 4 percent of the economy -- through 2015.
Democratic budget leaders say they can improve on those numbers, but it's not clear how, given that Obama's forecast relies on tax increases such as a new limit on itemized deductions for the wealthy that remain unpopular on Capitol Hill. Obama's $3.8 trillion request for fiscal 2011 also includes a three-year freeze on discretionary spending.
Senate Budget Committee Chairman Kent Conrad (D-N.D.) vows to be particularly aggressive. The Senate is planning to write a budget -- in part, because Senate rules would permit Republicans to do so if Democrats don't, according to congressional sources -- and Conrad said this week that his spending plan will bring the 2015 deficit down to 3 percent of the economy, the target Obama has set for a presidentially created deficit commission. Conrad declined to offer specifics, but said his committee will begin publicly assembling the plan in the next few weeks and send it to the Senate floor before the Memorial Day recess.
The politics are harder in the House. Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) said earlier this week that, while a budget resolution is "important," "it is difficult to pass budgets in election years because, you know, they reflect what is the status. And the status of this country was brought into deep debt by the economic policies of the Bush administration."
But as the pressure mounts, House Democrats may yet reconsider. Though Congress as a whole has failed to approve a final budget resolution on four occasions -- 1998, 2002, 2004 and 2006, all election years -- the House has approved its own budget plan in every year since modern budget rules were adopted in 1974.
On Thursday, 73 House Republicans noted that fact in a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). Not writing a budget, the letter said, "would set a terrible precedent, and we strongly urge you to reject these reports and encourage the House to consider a budget resolution later this year."
Aides say House leaders hope to make a decision by mid-May.

The new BlackBerry 10 OS will launch with about 70,000 apps - or 100,000, if you believe what BlackBerry CMO Frank Boulben said in a Q&A at the BlackBerry 10 launch. How does a new OS get to such heights?
Well, about 40 percent of those are Android apps, BlackBerry vice president Martyn Mallick said at another Q&A at the BlackBerry 10 launch. While he didn't do the following math himself, 40 percent of 70,000 is about 28,000 Android apps running on BlackBerry 10 right now.

Puppies & Kittens & Censorship! Oh my!
The Institute for Justice is at it again, taking a bite out of big government with a new video about how a professional vet is being curbed by the state of Texas. In Texas, it's a law that you can't give medical advice for pets unless you've had your paws on them in person at least once. Unfortunately for lovers of big government, the first amendment protects free speech and the scrappy vet isn't planning on rolling over any time soon. Dr. Ron Hines is retired, but still loves helping furry, four-legged friends all over the world with the power of the Internet. His many fans he's helped think he's purrfect, but Texas thinks he should go to the pound. What do you think?
From the Institute for Justice:
Can the government silence and shut down licensed professionals for giving advice online?
This Institute for Justice lawsuit involves free speech and Internet freedom while centering on one of the most important unresolved issues in First Amendment law: When does occupational licensing trump the First Amendment? The outcome will have widespread implications for medicine, law, psychology, investment advice, and many other occupations that often involve nothing but speech in the form of advice. The facts make it an ideal lawsuit for eventual consideration by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Dr. Ron Hines is a highly regarded licensed veterinarian who's never had any complaints against him. Being a disabled and retired senior citizen, the Internet allows him to remain productive in his golden years. Yet he's been fined and shut down for giving advice on the Internet, often for free, to people around the planet who have no other access to veterinary care for their animals.

Letter: Writer provides clarification on filed charges
To the Editor:
Ever had someone knock on your door, asked your name and proceed to serve you with a handful of papers? You are being sued! If so, then you might know how I felt, not funny.
This happened to me, being sued, foreclosure proceedings have begun. It turns out, after a few phone calls the loan papers were incorrect.
This did happen and I knew nothing of it until the knock on the door came. My loan officer is working very hard to correct the paperwork. But it was too late for the announcement in the News this week. I'm writing this letter so that everyone will know that I am not 'Fletch Investments' nor being sued, foreclosing or filing bankruptcy.

It depends. Using unsafe stuff internally, might be acceptable and sometimes necessary. I also use unsafePerformIO in Grapefruit for implementing CSignals although I'm not very comfortable with this. On the other hand, breaking referential transparency in the external interface is a very bad idea, in my opinion. Actually, this means that the library user would have to turn certain compiler optimizations off to get the intended behavior. Just have a look at the Haddock docs of unsafePerformIO. In my earlier years of Haskell programming, I thought that unsafePerformIO is not too bad but I had to discover that it can quickly lead to a catastrophe. Best wishes, Wolfgang

Lebanese singer Nancy Ajram has begun shooting a new music video for her song "Ma Feesh Hajeh" (There is Nothing), which is featured in her upcoming album. Nancy's new video is being filmed in the old town of Seeda in Lebanon amidst extensive security, which created worry among inhabitants of the town, who feared that something unusual is taking place.
According to the London based daily Al Sharq Al Awsat, once the townspeople realized that what was going on was merely a filming of a clip for Nancy, they gathered in large crowds eagerly asking for autographs and photos by the singer. Director Nadine Labky, who has directed all of Nancy's previous videos, naturally directs the video.
In the clip, Nancy portrays the role of a simple village girl, in which she is wearing no makeup to appear natural. The song is part of the new album, which features 10 new songs and is scheduled to be released in the near future.
Ajram has turned down an offer for one million dollars to act in a television commercial for one of the food production companies. Nancy's refusal for the offer comes from the fact that she refuses to accept any offer that does not relate to singing, stressing that she wants to focus her efforts on her music career only.
Nancy had also refused several offers to star in different films for the same reasons. Nancy added that she is postponing the idea of acting in Egyptian films for another two years, or until she is certain she has mastered the Egyptian accent.
Nancy is putting last touches on her new album which had been described by her business manager Jiji Lamara as "exceptional work" and many famous composers and poets participated in the album like Tark Abu Joudeh, Mohammed Raheem, Tarek Madkoor, and others. –Albawaba.com

HOUSTON, July 31 (Reuters) - State-run Petroleos de Venezuela delivered in June to Italy's oil company ENI a 240,000 barrel jet fuel cargo that had been tendered in May on the open market, according to an internal PDVSA document seen by Reuters on Thursday.
The jet cargo, with a destination of Rotterdam, was loaded on June 11 at Guaraguao, one of PDVSA's main terminals, on the tanker Tverskoy Bridge. No other fuel cargo was exported during June from that facility, according to the document.
The company did not directly sell any ULSD cargo to the international market in June, but it sent four cargoes from its eastern terminals to other owned facilities, including Bonaire in the Caribbean "for storage."
PDVSA has been increasing sales of ultra low-sulfur diesel (ULSD) after resuming exports of the fuel in January, but in recent months the oil firm has reduced tenders and deliveries in the middle of growing domestic demand from power generators.
But traders say that jet fuel exports have been stable in recent months, with an average of four monthly cargoes, 240,000 barrels each, being offered on the open market.
PDVSA also imported a cargo of gasoil in June with 0.5 percent sulfur bought through the open market, which was received at Curacao, where the company operates the 335,000 barrel per day Isla refinery and the Bullenbay terminal.
A shipment of 130,000 barrels of the gasoil arrived on June 12 on tanker Victory to Guaraguao.
PDVSA delivered in May to British oil firm BP and trading firm Gunvor two 240,000 barrel ULSD cargoes sold on the open market and it also delivered to China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) and Petrochina two ULSD cargoes, a jet fuel cargo and a virgin naphtha cargo.
PDVSA's internal report also says the company delivered eight 550,000 barrel cargoes of Merey crude to Phillips 66 that were sent to the company's terminal in Freeport.
Cuba, Nicaragua, Dominican Republic, Brazil and Jamaica also received a total of 10 crude and product cargoes from Venezuela's Eastern terminals last month.
