Richard Zanuck, the former second-generation production chief of Twentieth Century-Fox, once explained to me his survival strategy for his later years as an independent producer. "When a studio development executive calls me in to give me his notes, I make it a point to listen without hearing a thing," said the zen Zanuck. "When they're done I go out and make my movie."
I thought of Zanuck this week as I've been encountering the several former TV and film executives who, having relished the perks and privileges of corporate life, are re-inventing themselves in new roles. Anne Sweeney, long the uberboss at Disney TV, says she intends to become a television director. Ex-Warner Bros. film prexy Jeff Robinov, by contrast, is assembling funding for a production company, likely to be based at Sony, where Tom Rothman, a former Fox exec, landed.

TOM SQUIRES believes he was the victim of a "character assassination" by Sheffield Steelers, after he left the club.
The 21-year-old city-born winger came in for some criticism when he moved, against Steelers' wishes, to Sheffield Steeldogs, before eventually landing a spot at Elite League Hull Stingrays.
Steelers' official Dave Simms claimed at the time that Squires had become "too comfortable" in his home city where people were "telling him he was a superstar."
Simms said Squires had needed to evolve away from Sheffield influences.
The player, who has done well at Elite level this season after inexplicably flopping at lower-division Steeldogs, said: "I don't know where all that superstar stuff came from at all.
"I definitely did not think I was a superstar; it certainly wasn't the case that I ever thought I was above my station.
"Things like that can be hurtful unless you take them with a pinch of salt and try and laugh them off, as after all it wasn't true.
"But at the end of the day it was a character assassination."
Squires made an immediate impression when he made his November 1 debut for Hull, scoring at Cardiff Devils and then staking an assist at Fife Flyers, three days later.
Last weekend, he notched two points against Braehead Clan.
Yet things didn't go right at English Premier Steeldogs, where there were rumours he was 'put on notice' because of indifferent form in front of goal.
Squires, though, blames himself more than the iceSheffield club, of whom he speaks highly.
"I couldn't get going for them (two assists in 13 games) and couldn't score.
"It wasn't going right, it was a weird experience and I can't put my finger on why, even now.
"You get those spells though where lots of things all come together all at the wrong time.
"The club did tell me I had to improve, but that was a given as I was not scoring and so they had to kick me up the backside and push me in the right direction.
"Looking back I am impressed by the way they handled the situation, especially in letting me play for Hull. Everybody wants to play at the top available level,
"I can't fault the Steeldogs' organisation. Although I am still baffled why I couldn't score there."
Squires says he is enjoying playing at Hull with Jason Silverthorn and Janis Ozolins.
"It is a great line, I play on the power play and penalty kill and I am getting considerably more shifts than I did at Steelers."
Squires will face Steelers, for the first time on December 22. Ryan Finnerty's men entertain Cardiff tomorrow night.
The Star tomorrow: the Sestito factor.
Steeldogs: See Grassroots.

Back to Meal Planning!
I would absolutely love to check back with all of you in another 4 weeks or so to see how your freezer meals are coming along. So keep an eye out, because freezer meal week WILL BE BACK!
Please feel free to contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com if you have questions along the way. Also, if you would be interested in guest posting during our next freezer meal week, let me know! I'd love additional recipes to post and tips directly from you, our readers!
For now, back to weekly meal planning for the meal planning mommies. Throughout the next few weeks we will have some AWESOME giveaways/reviews for all of you!
Check back often, you don't want to miss out!
Freezer Meals: Q & A Session
Here are a few for everyone to learn from, feel free to comment if you have extra insight to add!
Q: How do you budget THIS month for NEXT months freezer meals...I see how you would NEXT month for the following, but that initial start up cost...it's very daunting to us!!
A: For the initial start up cost, I would say to pick a meal that has few/cheap ingredients.Jen's Spicy Sausage Pasta is an inexpensive meal you could make cheaply. Another idea is to start with a small co-op group. It will definitely be cheaper to cook 4 meals instead of 8.
Q: I don't know what to cook BEFORE I freeze vs leaving it raw to bake at a later date. Also, do you always have to thaw it before baking? How do you know whether to thaw or bake frozen?
A: Most things can be cooked before you freeze, but like Jen said you are trying to save yourself time- so only cook what you have to (like browning your meats or cooking veggies).
I would suggest thawing things as best you can before baking to cut down on cooking time. Baking something frozen would take at least twice the amount of time to bake and it may not cook evenly.
Q: My question - how long do meals stay good in the freezer? Does it depend on the ingredients? Are we talking weeks here, or months?
A: soup- 4 months
cooked meats- 2 months
casseroles- 3 months
Q: I would love to make individual pot pies to freeze. I've found little tins. But I'm unsure of cook times, if they would need to thaw etc. Has anyone tried this before? If so I'd love to hear what worked/didn't work for you.
I would say to definitely give it a try. I wouldn't think the mini pot pies would HAVE to be thawed, but the cooking time will vary greatly if they are still frozen. You may take your cue from pre-made pot pies. I think the frozen potpies that you cook frozen take around 45 minutes to bake.Try it out once and just keep an eye on them. Let us know how it goes!
Q: Co-op Question: Is there a "pool" of recipes the group chooses from in order to satisfy all tastes? I would hate to get back meals in a swap that my family wouldn't eat. I'm afraid of losing money on that. How would it be handled?
In our co-op we share a couple of EASY things that could be deleted from a recipe that our family may not like- i.e. mushrooms and onions. You don't want to give your co-op group a long list of things to not include b/c it would be too hard to find a meal to satisfy all of those needs. You will definitely want to be in a co-op group with others that cook and eat similar things as your family. This will help a lot! Jen did recommend to me, however, that sometimes it is a GREAT thing to try new recipes that you would never have made for your family. It could be a great experience for you!
And our Lucky Giveaway winner is... YOU!
Our lucky giveaway winner for the full e-book from Susanne at hillbillyhousewife.com, selected by Random.org is :

Guest Post: Foods that freeze well and some that don't... Plus other great tips!
The good news is that you can freeze almost anything! Just about everything we eat for dinner freezes well for lunch and many of the meals I make for the co-op were meals that I was already making for my family.
Here are a few foods that tend not to freeze well:
-mayonnaise (use salad dressing instead- my friend Sara didn't know this and her awesome chicken salad was ruined!)
-big chunks of potatoes (use small pieces or potatoes from the freezer section)
-fried food (will become soggy)
-large amounts of sour cream (will become runny) (small amounts okay, or add later)
More tips:
- under cook pasta and rice since it will finish cooking when reheated; if there isn't a lot of sauce in the recipe I tend to add the rice or pasta later since they can become gummy (or something, I just don't like it, BUT under cooking helps a lot; slightly undercooking also works well for veggies too
-some herbs can become stronger or even bitter when frozen, so always use a light hand when seasoning to freeze if you don't know for sure (our co-op once had a very unfortunate incident involving oregano).
-remember that when you're cooking to freeze you are trying to SAVE yourself time, so don't cook everything twice if you don't have too. Many recipes I make call for cooked meat and other ingredients that need to basically be heated, maybe simmered for a few minutes. I simply cook my meat, allow it to cool, then divide it up and add it to the bags. Then I dump cans, and measure spices and veggies right into the bag- how easy!
How long to keep your frozen meals:
soup- 4 months
cooked meats- 2 months
casseroles- 3 months
If you're not interested in a co-op or don't have friends who are, try:
- making a double batch of one of your favorite meals and freeze it for another day
- making burritos, freezing them on a cookie sheet and once they are frozen, stick them in a freezer bag for a quick lunch you can pull out one by one and microwave.
- making a big batch of spaghetti sauce and freeze it into meal size portions. When you want to use it you just have to cook the noodles and reheat the sauce.
I hope you find, too, that your freezer can be a useful, time and money saving tool!
Still have questions? Post a comment with your question and I will post a Q & A post on Saturday!
Freezer Meal Friday: Cheesy Filled Shells with Marinara
Thanks to Paula Gruen for using this recipe in our co-op meal swap and allowing me to share it with all of you!
My family thawed and made our cheesy shells this past Wednesday and it was a HUGE hit! I have two girls: 2 1/2 year old and 1 year old and they both loved it. This says a lot b/c they are both really picky eaters! Enjoy!
Here is what you need:
40 jumbo pasta shells (12 oz. box)
32 oz. of cottage cheese
16 oz. of shredded mozzarella cheese
3/4 c. parmesan cheese
3 eggs
3/4 t. oregano
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. pepper
Have on Hand: 28 oz. jar spaghetti sauce, parmesan cheese
Step 1: Cook shells 1/2 of recommended time
Step 2: Drain
Step 3: Cool in a single layer on pan
Step 4: Combine cheeses, eggs, and spices
Step 5: Fill each shell with 2 T. cheese mixture. (Tip: Use a freezer bag filled with cheese mixture. Snip the corner of the bag off. Squeeze to fill shells.)
Step 6: Freeze filled shells on a pan just until solid.
Step 7: Transfer to freezer bags. Notice that Paula labeled the bag with the "to serve" directions listed below. Also remember, you do not freezer the shells with the sauce. You will add the sauce when you bake the shells.
To Serve:
Step 1: Thaw shells.
Step 2: Spread 1/2 c. of the jarred sauce in bottom of a 9x13 pan.
Step 3: Arrange shells and top with remaining sauce.
Step 4: Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
Serve and Enjoy!
We added a Caesar salad and garlic bread to our dish. My husband I and at 3 shells each for dinner and my daughters ate 1 1/2 together. What is awesome about this freezer meal is that you can take out as many as you want to bake and keep the rest in the freezer! We only used half the shells for dinner and we still have plenty left for another dinner!
Excellent! You have to try them!

Guest Post: Cooking Co-Op
The other way I love using our freezer to make meal planning easier is by participating in a cooking co-op with friends. This is the one that my husband will say "saved our marriage"! We had only been married a year or so when I first joined a co-op at my church. I was working until 5:30 every night, we had one car and we were living on a small income. By the time my husband picked me up and we finally got home I was starving and in no mood to cook what little food that we had. Joining a co-op put already made food in my freezer at a price that fit into my budget.
What is a cooking co-op?
A cooking co-op is a group that swaps meals on a regular basis.
Here is how it works:
1. Establish a group, or a coop. I suggest you try 4 people to start with and then consider moving up to 6-8.
2. Establish rules such as what day you swap each month (such as the first Sunday of every month), how many people should your meal should serve (I suggest 4), and do you have to be in it every month (we let people sign up on a monthly basis).
3. Schedule a sign-up cut-off (such as you must sign up by the 2nd Wed of the month) and have everyone sign-up with:
a. their name and phone number
b. Name of the meal
c. if their family has any food allergies or strong dislikes
4. Now you have 2 weeks to cook your meal! If there are 6 people total in your co-op you buy ingredients do make your recipe x6. Save money by buying family packs of meat and #10 cans of sauce. Freeze each batch in a freezer bag, label with name of recipe and date you made it. If you left out onions for one family, label that too. Freeze your bag as flat as possible so they will stack nicely. It will usually take me a 2- 2 1/2 hours or so to make 4-6 meals instead of the 6 hours it would have taken me to make one each night.
5. Email your recipe along with reheating instructions to everyone in your swap. Reheating instructions often say something like: thaw in fridge overnight and reheat on stove top or microwave until hot.
6. Bring your meals in a cooler to the designated "swap spot" at the designated time and SWAP! Now you have a variety of homecooked meals to take home that will only take minutes to reheat!
Freezer Meal Thursday: Pasta E Fagiolo Soup
Here is what you need for 3 qts. (serves 6)
2/3 lb Ground beef
4 oz chopped onion (about 1/2 of a medium)
4 2/3 oz slivered Carrots
4 2/3 oz diced celery
16 oz tomatoes, canned, diced
2/3 cup cooked Red Kidney Beans
2/3 cup cooked white Kidney Beans
32 oz beef stock
1 tsp. Oregano
3/4 tsp. Pepper
1 2/3 tsp fresh, chopped Parsley
1/2 tsp. Tabasco sauce
16 oz Spaghetti sauce
3 oz dry pasta bow tie macaroni (or noodle of choice)
Pillsbury freezer french baguettes (or bread of choice)
Step 1: Chop up your onions, celery and carrots
Step 2: Brown the hamburger in a 10 qt. pan until it browns
Step 3: Add onions, carrots, celery and tomatoes. Simmer about 10 minutes.
Step 4: If you are making this for a freezer meal, you will stop cooking at this point. Once the veggies and meat have simmered for a bit, let them cool down to room temperature.
Step 5: Then I add your meat and veggie mixture to a gallon freezer bag along with the drained & rinsed beans; beef stock, oregano, pepper, tabasco, spaghetti sauce and parsley.
Step 6: Measure out your noodles and put in a separate baggie to use when you make your dish. Do not freeze your noodles with the soup.
Step 7: Lay your soup down in your freezer (make sure it's sealed well!) so that it will freeze flat, label your bag with date and reheating directions and use for another day!
Reheating Directions:
1. Thaw soup (in fridge over night or place in a bowl of cold water for a few hours)
2. Add soup and uncooked noodles (don't forget these!)to your pot and let simmer for 45 minutes or until everything is tender and warm!
Step 3: While the soup is simmering, bake your bread and fix a nice salad

Guest Post: Freezer Meals as Lunches
I have been using my freezer to help keep my grocery budget down and to help make meal-planning easy for most of my ten years of marriage. I do two different things, one of which, my husband will jokingly say, "saved our marriage".
The first way that I use our freezer to save time and money is for lunches. I freeze leftover dinner into freezable, microwavable containers. I then label them and stack them in a certain spot in my freezer, so at a glance I can tell how many "lunches" we have.
I make lunches every evening and simply pop a frozen lunch into my husband's lunchbox along with fruit and a soda and put it in the fridge until he's ready to go the next morning. He loves leftovers and will complain if we're out and has to eat soup from a can or a sandwich (poor guy). He sticks his lunchbox under his desk and allows it to defrost a little longer (while keeping his soda and fruit cool) before he reheats it in the microwave at lunchtime (reheating usually takes anywhere between 2-6 minutes depending on how frozen the meal and how powerful the microwave).
He is never tempted to eat out and I never have to make an extra meal or spend time planning one! (Note: not all of our dinners generate lunches but most of them do; also, sometimes we will have 2 or 3 lunches from one dinner and occasionally he does have lunch meetings or goes out with a friend (or takes me on a lunch date) so for us, it evens out).
The other way I love using our freezer to make meal planning easier is by participating in a cooking co-op with friends. This is the one that my husband will say "saved our marriage"! We had only been married a year or so when I first joined a co-op at my church. I was working until 5:30 every night, we had one car and we were living on a small income. By the time my husband picked me up and we finally got home I was starving and in no mood to cook what little food that we had. Joining a co-op put already made food in my freezer at a price that fit into my budget.
So What is a co-op? How can you get one started in your area?
Check back tomorrow for another Guest Post from Jen to get all the info!
Freezer Wednesday: Sarah's Cheesy Ham and Potatoes
Here is what you need for a family of 4-6:
1 24 oz frozen shredded hasbrowns, 1/2 cup minced onion (about 1/2 med. onion), 2- 10.75 oz cream of celery soup, 1- 8 oz cream cheese, 1 1/2 cups Monterey Jack cheese, 1 1/2 -2 cups cooked, cubed ham (about 1/2 lb total), 1/4 tsp. pepper, 1 cup cheddar cheese (optional)
Step 1:
Soften Cream Cheese (notice I had 4 laid out b/c I made this meal for my co-op group) and Cube your ham
Step 2:
Cream the cream cheese and 2 cans of cream of celery soup together.
Step 3:
Stir in chopped onions, ham, cheese and pepper to the soup mixture
Step 4:
Break apart frozen hashbrowns, gently stir in.
Step 5:
Place in a gallon freezer bag get as much air out as possible, label and Freeze!
Reheating Directions: Thaw, place in a greased baking dish. Bake uncovered 1 hr at 350 degrees, uncover and top with cheddar (optional) and return to oven until cheese is melted!
Every one in our family loved this dish. I honestly thought it was great, but next time might use it as a side dish instead of the main dish. This would probably be great for a brunch meal as well! To make this meal a bit healthier, opt for the low fat/no fat cheese!
*Freezer Cooking Tips I learned from making this recipe:
- If you are freezing using a freezer bag, freeze with the bag laying flat. This will allow you to stack your frozen items easier and give you more freezer space!
- Also, I label my freezer items with the 1. Recipe name, 2. Date Made & 3. Reheating directions (listed above). By adding the reheating directions, I can simply pull it out and know how to reheat w/ out having to look anything up! If you are a part of a meal co-op this will also make it easy to pass on reheating directions to others
- This freezer recipe has already frozen potatoes in the ingredient list. Already frozen potatoes tend to work great in a freezer meal, but baking potatoes/red potatoes do not tend to freeze/reheat very well!
- This recipe called for cooked ham. Instead of baking the ham, I bought the already cooked 5 lb ham from Wal-Mart. It cost about $6.00 for the ham and I only used 1/2 of it to make 4 of this recipe. I then took the leftover ham, cut some into cubes and some into ham steaks and froze in freezer bags. Now I have ham ready to pull out to use for omelets, dinner or another casserole. Plus I didn't have to do anything but cut it up before freezing!
- Expect your kitchen to be a mess when you are done making this meal for a co-op group. I made 4 batches of this dish and I used about every open space in my kitchen as a "station." I had a cutting station, mixing station, labeling station and freezer bag station. I didn't even have to pre-cook anything for this meal and my kitchen was a MESS! Just take a look...

Freezer Meal Tuesday: Krista's Chicken Pot Pie
Here is what you need:
Step 1:
I cook my chicken in the crock pot with water all day, or overnight.and cube it before making the rest of the pie.
Step 2: Prepare the bottom of the pie crust and set aside.
Step 3: When ready to make the pie, I cook the peas and carrots according to the package directions. While the peas and carrots are cooking, I melt the margarine and cook the onions and mushrooms until they are tender. (If you do not add the onions and mushrooms, go directly to the next step.)
Step 4:
Next, I stir the flour, marjoram and pepper into the butter & vegetable (mushrooms and onion) mixture. It is thick. Then, I add the chicken broth and milk all at once. (I use the broth from my chicken, but you can buy cans of broth.) Cook and stir until the mixture is thickened and bubbly.
Step 5:
Finally, add the Drained peas and carrots, chicken and parsley to the sauce. Heat until the mixture is again bubbly.
Step 6:
Spoon the mixture into the pie crust. (I usually have some filling leftover that can be refrigerated and poured over biscuits for another several servings.)
You may bake the pie immediately in a 450 degree oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or you may freeze the pie for another day. If you choose to freezer your pie, a good way to store it is by placing it in a disposable tin pie plate and cover twice with foil. Then simply place in the freezer for another day!
To thaw frozen pie: Set the pie in the refrigerator in the morning. It will probably still be slightly frozen by dinner time. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the crust is a golden brown and the sauce is bubbling. You may wish to cover the crust with foil or a pie crust cover after 15 minutes to keep the edges from burning.
Cut into slices, serve with mashed potatoes and enjoy!
The basic recipe for this potpie comes from my Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook, copyright 1989, but I did make some slight changes.
Thanks, Krista for this excellent freezer meal! Our family enjoyed Krista's Chicken pot pie for dinner last night. With 3 adults and 2 toddlers, we only ate half of the pie, so it makes a lot. This is definitely a keeper recipe, one that should always be in the freezer and on the meal plan once a month. YUM! Try it out!
Do you have a favorite freezer meal you keep on hand at all times? We'd love to hear it, leave a comment and share!

Guest Post: Great uses for your freezer!
Okay, so you doubled your recipe and have made two casseroles - one for now and one for the freezer. But, you don't want all your casserole dishes in the freezer so what do you do?
Line the casserole dish with clear plastic wrap or foil and then spray with cookin spray. Place your casserole in the dish, cover with plastic wrap and freeze for a few hours until completely frozen. Remove from the freezer and take it out of the dish. Then tightly wrap the food in more plastic wrap/foil, label and place back in the freezer.
When you're ready to eat it take all the plastic wrap off, place back in the original dish and place in the fridge to defrost. Then cook!
I love to have fresh produce around and sometimes I see great sales but I know we can't eat that much before it goes bad. Last week onions were $.79 for a 4LB bag at ALDI so I grabbed some, brought them home and chopped them up. I then put them on a baking tray and put them in the freezer for about 2 hours. You don't want them in there too long or they'll get freezer burn.
I pulled them out of the freezer and put them in a ziploc bag. I then threw them back in the freezer.
The advantage is that when you need some you can just go and grab a few and they're not all stuck together in a big ball! I've also done it with peppers, blueberries and other fruits.
Ice Cubes
Want to make fun ice cubes for drinks? Add a small piece of fruit (strawberry, cranberry, blueberry etc) to an ice-cube tray and then add water. Freeze and then serve in drinks!

Freezer Meal: Jen's Spicy Sausage Pasta
Here is what you need:
Jen's Spicy Sausage Pasta
1 lb turkey kielbasa, cut into thin slices
1 can Rotel
1 cup cubed colby cheese
1/2 c. Italian dressing
12 ounces rotini pasta, cooked according to package directions
Freezing directions: (follow these steps if you intend to freeze this meal before eating)
Step 1:
Brown the sausage
Step 2:
Place your sausage, rotel, cubed colby cheese and 1/2 c. Italian dressing in your gallon freezer bag, label and freeze!
*Notice that Jen made 4 of this dish as a part of her co-op. She gave her co-op group one frozen bag of the rotel, sausage, cheese etc. and one bag of uncooked pasta to make their dish.
Later this week Jen will be guest posting about co-ops and how to start your own!
Reheating directions (co-op directions):
Step 1: Thaw.
Step 2:
Boil pasta for 8-10 minutes and drain.
Step 3:
Add contents of bag to pot. May warm on low heat if desired. This dish may be served cold, just simply rinse pasta under cold water (we like our dish warm, with the cheese melted- we call it spicy mac and cheese!).
Step 4: Add your side dishes. We added corn bread and loved it with this dish!
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!
Eating your dish tonight? Simply skip the freezing step and continue making your meal!
Our family LOVED this dish. Not only is it GREAT after being frozen, but it is also great as leftovers the next day. We added corn bread as a side and it completely fit the dish. It was a little spicy for our young daughters, but I made sure to pull out just noodles and sausage for them and leave the peppers for the adults.
I hope you enjoyed our first freezer meal recipe of the week. Remember that we are giving you a main dish recipe. You will want to make sure to add veggies/fruit/grains as a side for your family!
Plan on using this for your next freezer meal?
Leave us a comment and let Jen know that you enjoyed her recipe!

'The NHS is now a national disgrace,' says former rugby star Lawrence Dallaglio
RUBGY legend Lawrence Dallaglio has branded NHS England a "national disgrace" and accused bosses of reneging on a deal to fund cutting-edge cancer treatment.
In a letter to Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt the former England rugby captain criticised the NHS for "turning the clock back" on the way the disease is being treated by not paying for patients to have stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR).
The sports star turned charity campaigner, who lost his mother Eileen to cancer in 2008, was asked to work with NHS England on the issue after previously approaching Prime Minister David Cameron with his concerns that not enough patients had access to the treatment.
Following a meeting with Mr Hunt and NHS bosses earlier this year, Mr Dallaglio and a team of specialists were given the nod to draw up proposals on how clinical trials could be funded.
But he has now been told NHS England has no money for his £5million plan which would have helped an extra 2,000 patients get treatment despite £42million being set aside for other radiotherapy this year.
In extracts of Mr Dallaglio's letter published today he said: "In my view what NHS England is doing now is a national disgrace. While their new chief executive talks about employing 50 new commissioners and focusing on better management structures, our cancer clinicians are denied the use of technologies to treat patients that the rest of the civilised world uses as a matter of routine."
In my view what NHS England is doing now is a national disgrace
SABR is a revolutionary treatment because it targets the tumour very precisely and allows patients to be treated without debilitating invasive surgery. On average, patients need a course of five treatments compared to 25 for standard radiotherapy and can usually return home same day.
It is widely used across the continent but according to official figures the number of people being offered it in England has fallen by more than 10 per cent since NHS England took control in April last year.
Mr Dallaglio wrote: "The way NHS England are approaching this is turning the clock back on the way we're treating cancer. We're not just standing still and doing nothing, we're turning the clock back . It angers me."
Tomorrow he will hold a meeting in the House of Commons with 30 or more MPs and leading cancer clinicians to draw attention to the deal being blocked.
Dr Sean Duffy, NHS England's National Clinical Director For Cancer, said: "If money were no object it would be great to fund every experimental treatment that we are lobbied on, but that's not the reality, so instead our priority this year has been investing hundreds of millions of pounds in cancer and other specialised treatments that are actually proven to work for patients."

In the heart of downtown Asheville sits one of the best restaurants in North Carolina, Posana Restaurant. Run by Executive Chef Peter Pollay and his wife, the gifted amateur photographer, Martha Pollay, Posana is truly one of the jewels of Asheville. Featuring a rustic interior with an industrial twist that hints of things you might find in a modern loft, the menu is 100% gluten-free save for a few local brews that they keep cold, just in case. In 2014, Posana embarked on a plan to rebrand as a full-service restaurant, minimizing their café origins. Digital Strategy Works was selected to redesign and develop the restaurant's website. The 11-month project included two separate design rounds – the first to ensure the restaurant had a new site for New Year's Day 2015 and the second to improve upon lessons learned in the first. The result is a stellar website that reflects the restaurant's personality and brand. The site is fully mobile responsive and features one click to call for mobile devices, as well as an Open Table integration, a focus on the restaurant's local partners, and a blog to feature upcoming events and specials. In addition to web design, we worked on SEO resulting in a page 2 listing for the restaurant in Google. We also helped launch the restaurant's Google My Business page, and fixed an issue where MapQuest was sending customers clear across town!

KIDS could be missing out on free school meals worth more than half-a-million pounds a year.
Sunderland City Council is sending out letters to families who may be entitled, telling them they could be saving hunreds of pounds every year.
The letter also tells them about the benefits of a hot and nutritious meal and that, unless they decide not to, their details will be passed to the council's Children's Services Department.
As well as helping families, the campaign could also boost school budgets. Under the Government's new Pupil Premium model, schools get additional cash based on the number of pupils on free school meals.
If more families register, then schools could benefit from thousands of pounds in additional income.
Councillor Pat Smith, portfolio holder for children and learning at Sunderland City Council, said: "This campaign is designed to ensure that families can easily access their entitlement to free school meals.
"We don't want any young person to miss out. Today's school menus are nutritious and tasty, with a wide choice and build healthy diets into young people's lives.
"In the past families may have had concerns about free school meals but now all schools operate discrete systems where no one knows who is paying and who isn't."
By taking up free school meals, a family could save £1.80 a day per primary school pupil, or £342 a year, and even more for secondary school children.
Malcolm Page, executive director of commercial and corporate services, said: "During these tough economic times, it's crucial we do all we can to help families.
"This is a good example of how we can use the intelligence we have to pro-actively assist families and make sure they are accessing all the support that is available to them."
Families will be given the opportunity to opt out of their free entitlement by telephoning tel. 520 5518 or writing to Free School Meals (Room 2.4), Benefits Service, FREEPOST NEA 834, Sunderland SR2 1BR by Wednesday, January 11.

Binary options present traders with a user-friendly platform to dabble in the financial markets. The beauty of binary options trading lies in the fact that you can profit off rising or falling markets by placing call or put options accordingly. The simplicity of binary options trading is its saving grace; prior to the advent of this evolution in financial trading all activity was limited to brokerage houses, investors in ivory towers, and professional fund managers. Binary options have levelled the playing fields, making it possible for everyday traders to dabble in the markets with their choice of financial assets.

You can trade indices, commodities, currencies and stocks, without taking ownership of these financial assets. Binary options trading is a speculative endeavour which allows for substantial profit generation by correctly forecasting the direction of price movement of the underlying asset. As such, large profits can be generated regardless of the direction of market movement. Among others, binary options offer traders known outcomes at all times. You will know precisely how much profit you stand to generate at the time of expiry, and your loss is limited to your initial investment – no leverage or margin is required. Since fixed payouts are made on all trades that end in the money, it is possible to budget accordingly and plan strategically.

- Use an economic calendar to carefully plan your trading activity
- Only trade financial assets that you understand and enjoy trading
- Educate yourself about all aspects of your preferred financial assets
- Use binary options trading strategies to limit losses and maximize gains
- Use binary options signals to automatically manage large-scale trading activity
Trading Strategies
Novice traders tend to trade haphazardly; but sage strategic advice is to limit your trading activity to financial assets that you understand. In other words if you have a penchant for tech stocks like Microsoft, Facebook, Google, Intel and Yahoo! – that is precisely where you should focus your trading activity. Once you feel comfortable venturing out into currency pairs, perhaps even commodities like gold, silver, copper and iron ore, you can do that.
The golden rule is to stick with what you know, because you're more likely to understand the market mechanisms that work to generate favourable or unfavourable price outcomes. Never ever chase your losses when you're trading binary options. If you consistently sustain losses, use the educational facilities available to improve your understanding of the trading mechanisms before you plough further resources into it. As a recap here are some useful strategies to help you get started:
- Use the educational facilities available at your preferred binary options broker
- Stick to a budget and divide your available funds up amongst multiple trades
- Limit your trading activity to those financial assets that you understand before venturing out into new asset
- Always use a demo trading platform before you trade for real money
- Evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of competing brokers before you deposit with one of them
- Trade with regulated brokers such as Banc De Binary or 24Option
- Contact customer support at your chosen broker before you make a deposit to ensure that they are responsive
Common Mistakes
As a new binary options trader, it is not uncommon to get overly excited at the prospect of being able to engage in the financial markets. However, caution is the order of the day. Since you're dealing with real market conditions and real investments, the profits and losses are also real. One of the most common mistakes is therefore over-eagerness. What you want to do is register with a regulated and accredited binary options broker, and use a demo trading platform to get started. Demo platforms offer zero risk and maximum benefit in the sense that you will trade under real market conditions. Be advised however that many regulated binary options brokers provide the demo trading platform for a limited time period only.
Another common mistake made by novices is too much invested into a few trades. It is best to spread your available cash around multiple options, such as currency pairs, commodities, indices or stocks. When you invest small amounts on individual trades, you limit your exposure to losses and you maximise your potential gains by having more possibilities of favourable outcomes. As soon as your understanding of market conditions improves, you can gradually start to increase the size of your trades and start to explore other options.
As a novice, you are advised to avoid one touch binary options and range bound binary options trades since these are difficult to gauge. The best options for novice traders are simple put and call options at preset expiry times. Recall that there is greater volatility in 60 second trades than there is in trades expiring within a week or a few days.
You may notice that binary options brokers typically offer generous bonuses and promotions. Should big bonuses entice you to register at a binary options broker? The answer to this question is yes and no. First of all, it is imperative that you only trade at regulated brokers.
You will easily see which brokers are regulated by looking for things like CySEC regulation (Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission). Any broker that is not regulated does not offer you recourse to any claims you may have against it. Therefore your point of departure is to only trade at regulated brokerages. In terms of bonuses and promotional offers, you want to be sure that the terms and conditions attached to the bonus offers are easily attainable. For the most part, the wagering requirements/trading requirements are difficult to satisfy. Always read the fine print to ensure that you will qualify for the bonus before you are roped in.

Did you know that more people in the world own a cell phone than a toothbrush? With all of that opportunity, you want to make sure you can be found easily with mobile search.

If you are not connecting with your customers this way, others are. Don't let your competitors beat you to it! Mobile marketing is an appropriate strategy for almost any type of business as a method of promotion, providing information, customer loyalty and recognition, and the ability to purchase.

Boeing Co has approached India's SpiceJet Ltd and Jet Airways Ltd as it gauges airlines' interest in its 737 MAX-10 aircraft, the stretched version of the yet-to-be-delivered 737 MAX narrow-body jetliner, a senior executive said.
Indian carriers are rapidly expanding to meet demand in the world's fastest-growing aviation market, with most of the growth involving flights into and out of the country's biggest cities.
"We have presented it to both the airlines what the airplane looks like, and it's in a very preliminary stage," Dinesh Keskar, senior vice president, Asia Pacific and India sales, Boeing Commercial Airplanes, told Reuters.
"If you are flying to the metros this (737 MAX-10) will be a perfect airplane, because runways are long, demand is there, frequency is already there." Read More…

- Artist: Juan Pablo Aguilar
- Format: CD
- Release Date: 7/3/2007
|your cart is empty
Hi, my name is Juan Pablo Aguilar. I have been working on a solo project for over two years and it is finally complete. Allow me to introduce you to my album entitled "Inspiracion." This song tells of my life on the ranch with my grandma and other family members. My grandma asks me to gather freshly laid eggs from the chicken coop and my aunts all arrive to cook together. These were the happiest times in my life. The other songs are also extremely personal to me. This album is really unique in the way that each song sounds completely different from the other; you jump from tejano to bolero romantico to country. Dedicating many years to the making of this album, I composed eight of the ten songs and my friend, Pepe Aldape, composed the other two.

(crucifixion of St. Peter - Caravaggio 1600)
"But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered him, "You are the Christ" (Mark 8:27-35).
Peter sometimes gets it and sometimes he doesn't. When Jesus tells him he will be a fisher of men he drops his net and follows. He walks on water but his faith fails and he sinks. Peter is the first to confess with his mouth that Jesus is the Christ but then immediately afterward in our reading this morning he tries desperately to persuade Jesus not to suffer and die as the Christ. Jesus actually calls Peter the devil himself, because of his sinister plan to have Jesus avoid going to the cross.
When Jesus is arrested in the garden of Gethsemane, Peter is the only one to unsheathe his sword, ready to defend Jesus and take on the whole roman army, but several hours later, when Jesus is being mocked and beaten in Pilates dungeon, a peasant girl recognizes Peter while warming himself at the fire. Scared and feeling his life in danger he denies Jesus three times. The rooster crows and Peter realizes what he has done. After Jesus resurrection Peter is restored to faith in the gospel through the forgiveness of sins.
Today in our first reading, in the book of Acts, we see Peter preaching a magnificent sermon. Preaching and confessing and believing that Jesus is the only thing that matters. Peter is on fire for the Gospel – he takes the message of Christ out into the whole world.
So we see that Peter is either hot or cold. He is either believing or unbelieving or believing again. Sometimes he is going forward, other times he is going backward. In terms of his faith, he oscillates. He goes back and forth. He falters as a disciple of Christ.
But what kind of disciple have you been? You look and sound great Sunday mornings but when was the last time you talked to your own friends or coworkers about what Jesus has done for you? Like Peter, at times you can be zealous for the Gospel. Other times you have fallen off the wagon.
Like Peter in the garden of Gethsemane, on your confirmation day you stood tall and proud in your white robe. You unsheathed your sword, held unto your bible, and promised before God and whole congregation that you would be present every Sunday at the Divine Service. And where is that Bible?
What happened? Like Peter, warming himself around the fire, you too have a tendency to get too cozy in the comforts of this passing world, rather than finding true and lasting security in the eternal love of God. By our own words, thoughts, and deeds we have denied Jesus far more than a mere three times. We've said ridiculous things like all denominations are basically the same or all religions are just different ways to the same destination. What nonsense! The things we say to fit in with a crowd.
Like Peter, you're intentions are good. You wish you could walk on water to meet Him, but your faith falters. Your flesh is corrupt. You sink. You fail. You sin.
Being a disciple is a lot like Peter. It's a mixed bag. It's a struggle between faith and unbelief. A fight between the desires of the spirit and the desires of your sinful flesh. Being a disciple is a constant conflict between making a home here in this fleeting world, and preparing for your eternal home in the Kingdom of God. Peter too knew this conflict.
Jesus knew Peter would betray him and deny him – Jesus knew Peter's weaknesses. Jesus knows your weaknesses too. He's even seen your denials. He sees your hesitancy to confess him before others. He has seen you give into temptation too easily – not with a fight and barely with a whimper. It's no secret we can all be fairweather disciples.
But God be praised Jesus lays down his life for fair-weather disciples. Jesus nevertheless loved Peter and Jesus loves you too. He even tells Peter this morning in our Gospel text precisely how he will love his disciples. Jesus taught them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes and be killed, and after three days rise again.
And there you have it! Jesus dies for shifty disciples, and fair-weather friends! He gives his life for all of us. Peter is not the rock. You are not the rock. Jesus is the rock. And our church is built upon Him alone.
Unlike us, Jesus is not a fair-weather friend. He is not shifty, He does not falter, He does not waver in his love and commitment. He has proved this by his life, completed it by his death, verified it by his resurrection, and now, gives you rock solid evidence that your sins are forgiven – your denials – your betrayals – and your fair-weather trust in him – all forgiven – by His holy, precious blood and with His innocent suffering and death.
Jesus says to Peter "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it."
When Peter found out that he was to be crucified, he begged his own executioners that he was not worthy to die in the same manner as Jesus. So they mockingly crucified him upside down, and Peter, through the most bitter suffering entered into glory.
Jesus speaks to you too this morning. You too have a heavy cross to bear. Your health is more than a little shakey. Work is exhausting and people are too critical of you. Being a kid in school and enduring cliques, cruelty, and bullying is as painful as anything in the whole world. Just old age, aches, new pains, and loneliness takes a tremendous amount of courage to withstand and press on.
But this morning, it's enough that you are simply a Christian. It's enough that you listen to the voice of Jesus, and give your loud amen during the service. It's enough that you, like Peter, believe in your heart that Jesus is the Christ.
This simply means that you are a disciple. You bear the name, Christian. You follow Jesus. And your strengths are made perfect in weakness. So humble yourself under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your cares and anxieties upon him.
Like Peter, even if you find yourself rejected by the whole world, don't be discouraged. You are accepted and approved of by God, welcomed by angels, and carried by the cross of Christ into everlasting life. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

West Vs. East: Who Is Better Melbourne?
Posted by Phoebe Rothfield
17. Dec, 2014
Now you might think an eastern suburbs girl would be quite biased when deciding if the west is better than the east. However, due to the fact I play hockey for Altona and travel there up to three times a week, I may actually be credible to give my views on this MASSIV debate. Yes I just spelt 'massive' incorrectly, but if you watched Big Brother as closely as I did you would know that's how housemate Travis, from Altona Meadows spells it. So I will pick apart both sides of the west gate and see who comes out on top.
Yes… I have been out in Werribee. Did I like it? I loved it. Why? Because you do not need to be in a bandage Kookai dress, have your hair done at Joey Scandizzo or be wearing tasseled Windsor Smith's. At Mynt Lounge in Werribee, no one gives a shit who you are or where you are from, if you are a current AFL player or hold a modeling contract at Chadwick's. Sorry Motel and Eve Bar, your prerequisites for entry are just too much for me. I can't even.
Food And Drinks
Now this is a tricky one. Three years ago, it would have been a no-brainer to choose the East over the West but with Eat8Bit, Heal.thy.self and Roti Road coming onto the scene lately, it makes my decision pretty tough. The food in the west is seriously becoming so good that I will drive the thirty minutes to grab a burger, potato gems, chips and a salted caramel shake. However, living in such close proximity to Chapel Street, the city and St. Kilda, I am inundated with amazing options. From quick and easy pasta at Sauced Bar to delicious tacos and margherita's at Radio Mexico, think it is better to call this one a draw.
Some activities in the West could include catching a game of Hockey in Altona (hint, hint) or going to Scienceworks on a family outing or getting great produce at Footscray Market, but when you have St. Kilda beach in the summer, footy games at the MCG in winter and the Prahran Market offering free tasters of dips and sausages on a Saturday morning the answer is pretty easy…the East.
This last category ultimately decides who takes the cake. We will chuck Costco in to help out the West a little bit, but with Highpoint as the only major shopping centre (even though it is pretty good) I think the East wins this one. You cannot compete with the likes of Chapel Street, Chadstone Shopping Centre, Malvern Central, Glenferrie Road, High Street and many more. On any major street you go to you are more than likely to do some serious damage to ye' olde credit card and shop up a storm (maybe that is just me and I have a problem).
In all seriousness, the tally currently sits at East 2-1 West. Maybe next year Westies.

The tensions that have simmered at the Aspen Music Festival and School in Colorado since the resignation of its music director, David Zinman, on April 8, boiled over on Thursday, when the festival corporation delivered a vote of no confidence in the festival's president and chief executive officer, Alan Fletcher.
This is only the latest swing in the fortunes of Mr. Fletcher, who was fired by the executive committee of the board of trustees last October only to be rehired by the full board in November.
A majority of the 147-member corporation, which consists of 90 faculty members, 37 board members and 20 members at large, passed the motion of no confidence, said Rob LeBuhn, the board chairman. He declined to give numbers, saying that the vote was confidential.
The vote has no binding effect on the 50-member board, which controls hiring and firing. "We will only know what the practical effects are later," Mr. LeBuhn said.
Mr. Fletcher, whose contract runs through September, does not expect sudden action either, he said in a separate interview. "I'm in the middle of a regular evaluation," he added, "and the board will need to take this into account."Continue reading the main story
But one immediate effect is to poison further an already toxic atmosphere at the venerable institution — with Tanglewood, one of the most prestigious combinations of summer music school and performance festival in the United States — as it approaches its 61st season. The season opens on July 1.
The animosity toward Mr. Fletcher stems largely from his attempts to scale down the institution — reducing the number of students and faculty this year, and cutting the season from nine weeks to eight — at least partly in response to the general economic malaise. The faculty cuts in particular, with 11 jobs lost in the end, inflamed the resident artists, notably including Mr. Zinman, who not only conducted concerts but directed the American Academy of Conducting at Aspen, which he founded in 2000 with Robert J. Harth, a beloved former president of the festival.
It was not only the cuts that rankled but — for some, at least — the way Mr. Fletcher carried them out. Some faulted his personal manner, deemed cool and aloof; others, his timing, since he informed artists before the festival last summer that they would not have jobs this summer.
His defenders describe his manner as intellectual and a bit abstract rather than cold and note that the timing of those notifications gave the artists that much more time to seek work for this summer. By all accounts, in any case, the institution is now a house bitterly divided.
"The vote shows the divisions that exist and that need to be brought together," Mr. LeBuhn said.
Mr. Fletcher could hardly disagree. But the mending of fences, however crucial, is only one of his pressing concerns, as he continues to search for a permanent replacement for Mr. Zinman (having already found substitutes for the vacated concerts this summer) and to prepare for the new season.
"We have lots of work to do," Mr. Fletcher said, "and we're moving ahead with it."Continue reading the main story

Asymmetric Charging to discourage BitTorrents
Most of us know what purpose BitTorrents are used for. However there is no effective way of blocking BitTorrents without compromising on Net Neutrality. If the ISP provider charges not for total volume of data but based on direction of traffic it can be effectively addressed. Most of the users of BitTorrents generate abnormally high volume (factor of mangnitude of 100 to 1000) of upload data traffic, than normal websurfers. ...more »

Disclaimer - we sighted beefs which were mentioned in tracks x tweets on social x none of these were made up nor are we trying to be controversial. We are not that kind of blog
Before I share with you beefs that we would all like to end I must say that this post was inspired by 50 Cent x The Game. These two cats squashed their beef after 12 years. So I started asking myself this question. Which SA Hip Hop Beefs Would We All Like To End Just Like The Game x 50 Cent?
Peep the beefs after the jump.
Tweezy x EJay
We have heard Ejay go at Tweezy on a couple of joints already x we have seen Tweets from Tweezy on why he is not entertaining this beef. E-Jay's latest jab was on his Nadia Nakai single which was released last week. This is the freshest beef at the moment x can it just end already?
Ifani x Tumi
This is a 2015 beef that started out of nowhere. But with iFani being woke x all sorts of positive energy now I doubt that he's going to be beefing with anyone. I guess we can say that his 2015 beef is squashed.
AKA x Cassper
AKA says he was on a flight with Cass and they started talking on how they should just squash their beef. This was all revealed during Sway's interview. This beef may actually be over now can you imagine a Cass x Doro track or atleast the money a brand would put up for a joint endorsement?
Cassper x Chad Da Don
Chad said some rather interesting things on "Chad Is Better". We know that Chad was once signed to Family Tree but ever since he left Chad has been feeling some type of way regarding Cass. Listen to the track x you will hear what I am talking about. This is one of those beefs that should really end in 2016.

Songs we're currently obsessed with from Ben Folds, Leona Lewis, Big Boi's "Big Grams" project and more.
A group spent the better part of a year learning how to play a single Foo Fighters song, all at once, in an attempt to get the band to play a show in Cesena, Italy.
The Westboro Baptist Church, which is notorious for picketing the the funerals of U.S. military personnel and blaming the servicemen's deaths on the United States' acceptance of homosexuality, got a taste of its own medicine on Friday when the Foo Fighters staged a counter protest of the church's picketing of the band's show that night in Kansas City.

Market Statistics
What's Going On With The Mississauga Condo Market?Written by Eric Skicki Tuesday, June 13th, 2017
Less than 3 months ago the real estate market in the GTA was in a much different state than it is today. It was common for condos for sale to get 20+ showings within a few days. During this time, our team managed to sell some condos as high as 120% of asking price!
On April 20th, this all changed when the government of Ontario passed a new law called the Ontario's Fair Housing Plan. Under this new legislation, 16 new measures were introduced to help more people find affordable housing, increase housing supply and provide a way for the real estate market to balance out a little more.
As a result of the changes, the number of freehold home sales dropped by over 20% in May 2017, as compared to May 2016. Condo sales have only dipped by 6.4%. This might suggest that these new rules had a more meaningful effect on pricier properties, rather than the affordable real estate.
Despite the number of sales being down, the prices for most condos have stabilized compared to what they were last year.
When talking to some of our buyers we noticed a few of them decided to see "how things play out" before buying their next property. On the other hand, some sellers decided to "cash in" on their real estate holdings which have appreciated nicely over the past few years. This, in part explains the imbalance in the market which has caused the number of transactions to go down.

Season 2 of Reign will be premiering in only a few short months, but until then, we've got a taste of what life is going to be like for France when the new season begins.
At the end of season 1, Mary finally confessed to Francis about the paternity of Lola's baby. Francis, being the upstanding person that he is, rushed to be with Lola who was all alone during her delivery. However, the Black Death had resurfaced in France and the castle had orders to seal itself off from the outside world, effectively locking Francis out and away from Mary.
As you can expect, life for the people of French court is going to be much more difficult during season 2. In this new preview via Entertainment Weekly, Mary attempts to assure the people of the castle that they are fully prepared for anything that may happen. However, as the footage that follows shows, good health is not in the stars for many within the castle.
Reign stars Adelaide Kane, Megan Follows, Toby Regbo, and Torrance Coombs. Season 2 will premiere Thursday, October 2, at 9PM EST on The CW.

NHL: Coyotes trade negotiating rights for Bryzgalov to Flyers
Tyler Hunt
Jun 7, 2011 in
The Philadelphia Flyers have taken a step towards solidifying their goaltending situation after acquiring the rights to goaltender Ilya Bryzgalov from the Phoenix Coyotes for a third round pick in 2012.
After a two straight years of disappointment in Philadelphia, Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren wasted no time in potentially locking up a goaltender for his hockey team next season.
Philadelphia sent a third round draft pick in next years draft, prospect Matt Clackson, as well as a conditional pick to the Coyotes in exchange for the negotiating rights to Bryzgalov.
The Russian netminder is coming off a career season with the Coyotes, earning 36 wins and posting seven shutouts with a .921 save percentage, which helped the Coyotes finish sixth in the Western Conference, making the playoffs for the second straight year with Bryzgalov between the pipes.
The Flyers' lack of steady goaltending took criticism after they were eliminated by the Boston Bruins in the second round of the playoffs. After losing in the 2010 Stanley Cup Final with the goaltending tandem of Michael Leighton and Brian Boucher, the Flyers took the same pair into the playoffs after rookie Sergei Bobrovsky was taken out early in the first round. As the carousel went round and round, it seemed to be a valid question of who would be starting in goal for the Flyers on any given night.
Bryzgalov seems like the perfect fit for Philadelphia, though his new contract might come with a bigger price tag than the Flyers can afford. Bryzgalov made $4.25 million in the last year of his contract, and after posting career-high numbers, there's no doubt that the 30-year-old netminder will be looking for a pay increase as he's established himself as one of the premier goaltenders in the league.
This may pose as a problem for the Flyers, who are already in cap trouble going into the offseason. According to
, the Flyers have almost $59 million committed to 18 players for next year, with virtually no cap room left with the current lineup they have. This includes having to resign restricted free agents Darroll Powe and Andreas Nodl, as well as already being committed to Scott Hartnell ($4.2 million) and Kris Versteeg's ($3 million) high salaries for the next year.
If Bryzgalov is going to be signed, Holmgren will have to make another move, and it seems as if the Flyers GM has something up his sleeve. Philadelphia has several large contracts they've committed to for the next few years, and there are a few expendable assets they could move to make room for Bryzgalovs contract.
Andrej Meszaros is slated to earn $4 million over the next three years, but the defenseman put up just 32 points in 81 games in 2010-11, making him a hard contract to move. Matt Carle is in a similar situation as he will make just under $3.5 million for another year, after contributing 40 points in all 82 games the Flyers played this season. Carle spent the majority of the year alongside Chris Pronger, but had just four points and was a team-worst minus-8 in the playoffs while Pronger spent most of the post-season out of the lineup.
The Flyers have less than a month to make room for Bryzgalov, but as of July 1 he will become an unrestricted free agent and can test the open market. Boucher also becomes a UFA this summer, while Leighton is signed on for another year in Philadelphia.
For the Coyotes, the trade shows Bryzgalov's lack of desire to re-sign in Phoenix, though he struggled for the team in the playoffs this year. Bryzgalov failed to win a game this post-season, and his 4.36 goals against average was part of the reason that the Coyotes were swept in the first round by Detroit.
Should they be unsuccessful in signing Bryzgalov like the Coyotes, the Flyers also have other options heading into the free agency. Topping the list of free agent goaltenders this season are Florida's Tomas Vokoun, Toronto's Jean-Sebastien Giguere, and should he decide to play another season, 41-year-old Dwayne Roloson from Tampa Bay. For a more affordable option, Marty Turco will be a UFA after losing his starter job to Corey Crawford this season, and the former-Dallas Stars veteran made just $1.3 million this year for the Blackhawks.

Product Description for the Roland SH-2 PLUG-OUT SYS-1 Software Synthesizer
The SH-2 PLUG-OUT Software Synthesizer is a total reproduction of the classic SH-2 Synthesizer from 1979. Renowned for its raw vintage tone, the SH-2's dual VCO plus sub oscillator configuration dishes out devastatingly fat basses, edgy leads, and wild effects. Designed for SYSTEM-1 as well as Mac or PC hosts, the new SH-2 uses Analog Circuit Behavior technology to faithfully recreate the warm, rich sound of the original with a level of authenticity that can only come from Roland.
Party Like It's 1979
In the late 1970s, synthesizers were undergoing a significant transition with the development of polyphony and tone memory. As the world's synthesizer manufacturers raced to develop these new technologies, Roland launched a seemingly basic monophonic synthesizer – the now classic SH-2.
Although it was released around the same time as Roland's JUPITER-4, a pioneer of polyphonic synthesizers, the SH-2's functionality was rather conservative compared to that of the JUPITER-4. But its uniquely designed configuration—which consisted of two VCOs and a sub-oscillator that essentially gave it three VCOs—was capable of extremely fat and warm analog synth tones. To this day, many synth aficionados feel it produces the most earth-shaking, bone-rattling synth bass sounds of all time.
Back to the Future
The SH-2 PLUG-OUT Software Synthesizer is an incredibly precise recreation that leverages Roland's decades-old expertise and deep knowledge of the original analog units. Like other products in the AIRA series, this new SH-2 uses Analog Circuit Behavior (ACB) technology to faithfully capture the fine details of the SH-2's sound, right down to the behavior and interaction of the individual analog circuits.
Everything has been reproduced exactly, from the VCF which is capable of self-oscillation to the attack and long decay characteristics of the steep envelope. The unique harmonic makeup and pitch wavering are present as are the complex interactions between parameters that result from the original analog circuit design. Even behaviors that occur only in analog circuitry are accurately reproduced, like the subtle effect on tonality when the user tweaks parameters unrelated to the actual tone being produced.
There are even some new features that were not available on the original. This new SH-2 has a VCO range that is expandable to 64', two envelopes, reverb, delay and crusher effects, Autobend with support for reverse actions, and a tempo-syncable arpeggiator.
PLUG-IN and PLUG-OUT
While multiple instances of the SH-2 plug-in can be used in any compatible DAW, the SH-2 PLUG-OUT Software Synthesizer offers seamless integration and unique capabilities for SYSTEM-1 owners. Connect a SYSTEM-1 and it becomes a dedicated controller, only lighting the appropriate knobs and sliders pertinent to the SH-2.Transfer sounds back and forth between the DAW and SYSTEM-1 and even use the SYSTEM-1 as a high-quality audio and MIDI interface. Or break free entirely and PLUG-OUT directly to the SYSTEM-1, creating a stand-alone, hardware SH-2 with real physical controls that can go anywhere and doesn't require a computer.
