FLOOD Zone Updates
Flooding is the number one natural disaster in this State. It is vital for property owners to understand their risk and take advantage of tools or programs available to them, including flood insurance, to help reduce flooding impacts. The new maps in Isle of Wight County and Town of Smithfield are an update of the existing FIRM, which dates back to 2002. The FIRM and the associated Flood Insurance Study (FIS) provide the basis for communicating and identifying risk and for floodplain management measures. Isle of Wight County is required to adopt updated maps to continue participating in the NFIP, which makes flood insurance available to the community. Learn More

I Will Be 6 Weeks Post Op (FTT, Lipo of the Flanks, BA, BL) Next Week What Excercise Are Recommended? I use to go to the gym 5-6 times a week & would run 3-5 miles. Can I do squats, lunges, lift weights if so how much. I would love to run again.
Can I Exercise 6 Weeks After Tummy Tuck?
Doctor Answers (11)
Exercise should be light after six weeks
Some form of light exercise can start three to six weeks after surgery. I encourage walking around even beginning the day after surgery. Light exercise consists of light lifting no more than 10 pounds. Climbing stairs can begin at about three weeks. However, heavy exercise including leg lifts and sit ups should wait until about nine to twelve weeks after surgery. I would rely on the advice of your surgeon.
Exercise after tummy tuck
I advise my patient to perform only lite activity for the first 3 weeks after an abdominoplasty. If there is no seroma and no other complications, I allow my patients to gradually increase activity as tolerated. Usually this means low impact aerobic exercise such as an elliptical bike after 3 weeks, high impact aerobic exercises by 4-6 weeks and potentially light weight training after 6 weeks. I always inform my patients to listen to their own bodies. If they hurt or swell after exercise, I inform them too take it slower, and gradually increase activities as tolerated. Geoffrey Leber, MD
Exercise limitations after tummy tuck
Ask your surgeon.
Only they know what they did in surgery and what their protocol is for surgery limitations.
We generally allow patients to resume full exercise, at their tolerance, at 6 weeks time.

Exercise after Tummy Tuck?
Thank you for the question.
Questions like this should be addressed to your operating surgeon who knows your situation the best. Sometimes return to exercise may need to be delayed if the patient is experiencing complications. Generally speaking, many patients are able to return to lower extremity work out, without heavy lifting at the 6 week postop mark.
I hope this helps.

Exercise after TT, lipo, and BA
This is a question most appropriate for your plastic surgeon. I usually recommend light cardio at 4 weeks; full cardio at 5 weeks; and weight training and abs at 6 weeks. Keep in mind that it does vary patient to patient and everyone has a different tolerance for pain. If you do decide to resume your workout regimen please take it slow. It is important to listen to your body and slow down if it tells you to.
Exercise After Tummy Tuck
Every patient is a bit different, so it is always advisable to check with your surgeon. That said, I usually allow patients to resume exercise 6 weeks after surgery. However, I do caution them to incrementally increase the intensity of their exercise. Even patients who were exercising regularly before surgery will feel more tired after not working out for 6 weeks. Furthermore, patients who have had their muscles plicated often need some time to adjust, so that they don't feel as though they are pulling on the repair even if they are not. Bottom line: consult with your surgeon, and once he or she gives you the red light, start slow, and increase as tolerated.
Exercise after Surgery
You really need to consult with your surgeon for recommendations for exercise after your procedures. I like to see my patients in post-op to ensure that they are healing properly before advising on resumption of exercise. However, in most cases six weeks is enough time for recovery. Just make sure that you do not push your body too much.
Good Luck.

Exercise after Tummy Tuck and Liposuction
I advise my liposuction and tummy tuck patients as follows. I do many many very large tummy tucks and very large volume liposuctions. Patients are advised to get up and walk the evening of their surgery. Al have pain pumps that reduce discomfort by 80%. Every day they are advised to walk a liilt more and a little further....5 to 10 x a day. Walk, but do not run. At two eeks post surgery a return to the gym is allowed. Again a gradual approach of 1/4 workout progressively. I say let pain be your guide. By the 3rd week the wounds are 90% full strength and I allow a 1/2 full workout witht he same directions. By the 4th week I allow a full workout. Gym, Weights, treadmill, run, skydive, bungie cord jump; the works. At 4 weeks it may hurt to do it but you WILL NOT HURT YOURSELF. A well repaired tummy tuck is 95% full strength at 4 weeks and go for it. If you get uncomfortable, slow down if you wish. My advice is pretty much the same for breast, face, nose, lipo, tummy tuck etc. I have never in 30 years had a patient with a pulmonary embolism and I feel the early activity has been instrumental. I have never regreted this safely aggressive program. I have NEVER had tummy tuck disrupt the midline repair. I will contimue this regimen for my patients.
Exercise 6 weeks after tummy tuck is usually just fine!
Assuming you have had an uneventful recovery, and that your surgeon approves, exercise at 6 weeks is not only possible but recommended!
BUT, you should start gradually so you do not injure areas that have not fully matured in the 6-12 month long healing process!
Also, keep your scars out of the sun (or tanning booth) as long as they are pink (6-12 months). Permanent ultraviolet avoidance is actually good, since you can obtain Vitamin D from fortified milk or oral vitamin supplements. Ultraviolet not only hyperpigments scars, but also cause skin cancers, wrinkles, and loss of collagen and elastic fibers over time. Spray tan or use self-tanning lotions! Cheers!

Post -Operative Excercise after Tummy tuck
I agree with most of these surgeons about inquiring with your plastic surgeon about resuming you exercise routine. I normally have my clients wait at least 4-6 weeks for all aerobic exercise and any strenuous heavy lifting. All clients heal differently and I have all different age groups having the tummy tuck procedure from mid 20's to last month I had a 72 year old women. Your age is usually a factor in healing quickly however my 70 year old client was back in the office at 4 weeks healed quickly and wanted to start her exercise routine again. Generally it is good to start back slowly with your exercise routine and build yourself back up in a gradual manner both with weights and aerobic exercises. You may experience some swelling in your tummy area if you start back to soon.

A solid game
Sleeping dogs is a solid game - there isn't anything it does badly and plenty of things it does very well. No, it won't light the world on fire, but for a game that was very nearly cancelled, it has done well for itself.
The main draw for sleeping dogs is not the open world mechanics - other games have done it before. It's not the combat - other games have done it better. It's not the graphics - which are good, but won't make your jaw drop. No, the main draw for Sleeping dogs is the setting and the story - more the setting than the story.
You play as Wei Shen, an Asian-American Police Officer on loan to the Hong Kong Police as an undercover agent. Shen's stellar arrest record, physical and mental prowess and his childhood that was spent growing up with the children of triad families in Hong Kong make him the perfect tool they need to bring down the powerful "Sun on Yee" crime gang. The game revolves around Shen worming his way into the higher reaches of the Sun on Yee, while also helping the HKPD deal with related crime activities. Despite the set-up, there are no "choices" or "moral systems" at play here - there is no need to "balance" your actions in regards to the two groups, and there is no way the player can impact the story at any point. Shen's story plays out as it does.
And it is an interesting story, even if it is not very original. While the Chinese triads are not exactly the same as the Italian Mafia, a crime syndicate is a crime syndicate and there are commonalities to be found between them. Predictably enough Shen will have to deal with his growing attachment to his triad "family" while trying to maintain his cover and his goal to bring down the Sun on Yee.
It's a good story and it lasts a decent amount of time, clocking in at around 10 hours if you just do the main quests as quickly as possible.
Like GTAIV, but more polished and fun to play. Wei fights, drives and shoots his way through Hong Kong much as you'd expect. The Gunplay is nothing special. The driving is nothing special either (although it is also not frustrating like GTAIVs). But the brawling system deserves some mention as it borrows elements from the Batman Arkham games, and even manages to incorporate a few new elements such as brutal (and I mean brutal) environmental kills, different enemy types, a variety of combo moves and melee weapons. It is not as polished as Batman's but it's still pretty good.
As with GTAIV, the game world will contain missions you drive to and complete. At the start, these missions are very easy, but as you progress they can become mildly challenging. I say mildly, because there is no area of the game which presents great difficulty. As long as you have decent reflexes, all physical fights, even boss fights, are easy. There are also a large number of "face" missions - sidequests that improve your "face" or honor.
While the game has no morality and while you cannot affect the outcome, you can affect your progress through the ability trees depending on your actions. While (and only while) on a mission, actions you perform can decrease or increase two metres: the "Cop" metre and the "triad" metre. Using brutal environmental kills and being very violent will cause the triad metre to rise. Harming civilians or damaging property will cause the Cop metre to drop. How far the triad metre rises and how far the Cop metre drops influences how much experience you earn for those two ability trees.
The game also has a decent amount of collectibles for you to locate. Health Shrines which can increase your max health, to jade statues which can unlock new brawling/martial arts techniques, to lockboxes containing money or new items of clothing.
For an open world game, Sleeping dogs looks good and looks especially nice on the PC. They manage to get a good representation of how Hong Kong actually looks (and I've been there). Rain, day/night cycles, lights and textures all look very good. It won't light the world on fire, and the character models for unimportant characters is a little shabby, but overall it looks very good. Some animation problems, but nothing serious. If you want a game that looks nice, Sleeping Dogs won't disappoint.
A real highlight. Having been to Hong Kong and grown up around Cantonese-speaking people for all my life, I can say that they get the hustle and bustle down right. Chinese societies really do sound like that. The way the pedestrians shout, curse, speak and greet are all pretty accurate - except for the amount of English spoken, which is inaccurate.
The voice acting is rock-solid, almost across the board. One or two characters sound like they're phoning it in, but for the most part they actors work like they are in a movie.
Sleeping dogs is a good game. I will not say it is perfect. There are more than a few progress breaking bugs that I have run into and the combat becomes quite dull after a while. It does not offer much of a challenge and while the story is good, I will not say that it is one I'll remember for a long time.
Still, it's worth your money and time.

Bitter Maturity: Stéphane Bret is defined as the defender of freedom of thought and expression
I really want to talk about the novel Stéphane Bret, Bitter Maturity published in 2013 by Éditions Dedications .
Stéphane Bret was born in Paris in 1951 and currently lives in Boulogne- Billancourt . Avid avid reader and admirer of all cultural fields : theater, cinema, exhibitions, etc. .
Stéphane Bret is defined as the defender of freedom of thought, expression , "My orientation : the rehabilitation of the role of knowledge as a means of emancipation, really general culture for the exercise of free will (…) ."
His latest novel Bitter Maturity really reflects his state of mind freedom through journalism , a profession you will tell me , in front of that freedom.
Sylvain Grati is the main character of the novel, a journalist who carries us through his reflexive evolution through various events in the news : in May 1968 , the election of François Mitterrand in 1981 , the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989, the first Gulf War in 1991.
Over journalistic career, Sylvain Grati and password journalism of opinion, that it will defend a certain time journalism connivance . The experience of character is built in a development such as a man lives his childhood to adulthood , I am talking about maturity.
All fire and flame at the beginning of our lives, we build our own identity by defending our own opinions and confronting our parents. And then, progressively , we assagissons , we understand the different interactions or rather the rules of the game: "(…) this man strives to practice high ideals , both products of an education demanding and the influence of peers in Europe 1 (…) . He feels the last two events as a closure announced the triumph of ideological unanisme a threat to the exercise of his profession (…) . "
Not easy to keep its own professional beliefs , we must believe that its coverage on the news led him to perceive his job otherwise.
Yet !
Sylvain Grati is indeed a journalist, but also a man, a man who also lives with love and not a little. Three women will share his intimate life : Nathalie Mandel , Press magazine for fashion and beauty , Kate Robson, American journalist and Celine painter.
Nathalie Mandel evolves in this fashion world , a world of collusion ? In any case, Sylvain Grati "(…) however, could not bring himself to be in a world marked by superficiality and made futile appearances (…) ." A world to which it belongs as "(…) the regular practice of swimming, fitness , all combined with a healthy almost monastic life, had enabled him to literally sculpt his body and appear very attractive (…) " .
Kate , meanwhile, more for the sake of ideas and actress brainstorming households in the political sphere. Moreover, Sylvain Grati enjoy this American mentality .
Céline represent the inner sphere of the main character: " (…) Sylvain had the opportunity to enter the atmosphere of the place : in seclusion , impregnated with a protective intimacy conducive to concentration , in perfect harmony with the creative wills its occupant. "
Stéphane Bret has perfectly to history a dichotomy related to the character . To be more specific , professionally , he spent Journalism opinions ( as said before ) journalism unanisme by cons in his private life , he spends a relationship related to the superficiality a relationship linked to the world individual creation . Of individual intelligence to influence group professionally and vice versa in his private life .

A city in Spain has a single inhabitant : the mayor
The smallest ten cities in Spain draw with big letters the depopulation problem that affected Spain in the last hundred years. The newspaper ABC , City Illán de Vacas (Toledo ) has only one local - the mayor - and nine other cities in ten people who are in the provinces of Teruel , Guadalajara , Burgos , Soria and Spanish autonomous community of La Rioja .
These ten locations are and in some provinces or regions most affected by the lack of population or aging. In addition , your records indicate even more people than those who actually live in each such area. The extreme case is that of Illán de Vacas , where registered as such is the only native Renilla Mayor Julián Bru .
Rural exodus and members go in search of better opportunities in the cities caused depopulation . In such localities came harder civilization progress , development or infrastructure for electrical installations and service . The situation was not the same always : in some cases the decay was accelerated in others - progressive since a century ago .

Mistakes you do in the shower that affect your beauty
Although there are numerous care and beauty tips that we receive each day from dozens of sources, there are mistakes that we make every day and do not even know, but they dramatically affect our appearance.
If you want to know what mistakes you make since the first hour of the morning, when you get in the showe, and how you can fix them read the tips below.
1. Use water that is too hot. Especially in the cold mornings it is hard to imagine a shower with only warm water. However, hot water is not good for the skin, on the contrary it emphasizes dehydration can lead to itchy skin and increases cellulite.
Warm showers or alternative showers are more suitable, if you want beautiful skin as it activates your circulation and helps you fight against cellulite.
2. Too much soap. Any dermatologist will tell you that no matter how many times you take a shower a day, the soap should be used only once. Soap is tough enough on your skin and used several times a day it spoils the natural barrier of the skin. So if you wash with soap in the morning, do your evening shower with water only.
3. You're not using the shampoo right. It's useless to invest considerable amounts of money in shampoos if you don't know how to use them. The shampoo is applied by gentle massage of the scalp and it should not be rinse immediately, especially if a specific action shampoo - dandruff, for growth or volume - but it should be left for 2-3 minutes to act and only then rinse with water as cold as you can.
4. You're not using the conditioner right. The conditioner should be applied to the lower half of the hair just like your shampoo, let it work for a few minutes before rinsing. The last running water that passes through the hair must be cold, so to close the hair cuticle and remain bright.
5. You do not use the cream when needed. Very few women know when to apply body moisturizer. The few minutes after the shower is all too important. Do not wipe with your towel, which can equate to a friction scrub, but slightly buff the skin with a soft towel. It is not necessary to remove all the water. In the first three minutes after the shower, when your pores are still open, it is important to apply a moisturizing oil or cream. Thus hydration is at a deeper level of the skin and you enjoy a smoother skin all day.

The European Parliament adopted the educational program of 14.7 billion over the next seven years
The European Union is to invest 14.7 billion over the next seven years, the program Erasmus + precursor adopted Tuesday by Parliament.
After adoption by the European Parliament, the European Commission proposal to be submitted for adoption in the European Union Council, scheduled for December, according to a press release from the European Comsiei.

The program, which will have a budget of 14.7 billion, 40% higher than current levels, will provide a total of 4 million people to study support to attend training for work or to conduct volunteer abroad.
Students who intend to pursue a full master studies abroad, which rarely grants or loans available national will benefit from a new loan guarantee scheme, managed by the European Investment Fund, said the source.
Also, Erasmus + will provide funding for staff education and training for youth workers and partnerships between universities, colleges, schools, businesses and nonprofit organizations.
The new Erasmus + combines all existing schemes for EU education, training, youth and sport, including the program of learning throughout life (Erasmus, Leonardo da Vinci, Comenius, Grundtvig ), Youth in Action, and five international cooperation programs ( Erasmus Mundus, Tempus, Alfa, Edulink and cooperation program with industrialized countries ). This will facilitate the understanding of the opportunities available to candidates, while other simplifications in turn will facilitate access to the program.
Who will benefit from Erasmus +:
- 2 million students in higher education will be able to study or train in abroad, including in the 450 000 internships;

Obama asked the head of HBO to obtain for him in advance episodes of " True Detective " and "Game of Thrones "
U.S. President Barack Obama would have asked HBO boss Richard Plepler last week during an official dinner , to give them to him before the official launch of the episodes of True Detectives ( Detectives in Louisiana ) and Game of Thrones ( Game of Thrones ) according to The New York Times.
It is known that Obama is a fan of the TV series Homeland ( Network of Terror ) and House of Cards ( Backstage Power ) .
The request was made at the dinner held in honor of French President Francois Hollande , on an official visit to the U.S..
So far there have been broadcasted in the U.S. five of the eight episodes of detectives in Louisiana , but Game of Thrones will premiere only on April 2 , so if the president would get the episodes in advance , this would be a real demonstration of power.
How cool would it be if I could do that too? :)

Could Cooper bring his winning ways to the Oilers?
Jon Cooper used to stand before the bench as a lawyer, now he stands behind one.
And if he used to defend people, nobody has to defend his record as a hockey coach.
Everywhere he coaches, he wins. Midget AAA in Michigan, junior in two different leagues, in the pros with the Norfolk Admirals in the American Hockey League. He's a rising star.
Would the Edmonton Oilers ever hire Cooper? Who knows?
He grew up in Prince George, went to school in the U.S. on a lacrosse scholarship, worked on Wall Street, then got his law degree and opened his own practice, before hockey took over his life and he decided to do it full-time about nine years ago.
At the least, the Oilers should be interviewing the young bright coach.
The Oilers are keeping their coach search ultra secret, although one of the leading candidates, Brent Sutter, has not had an interview with Oilers since working the bench for Canada at the world championship in May. Oilers team president Kevin Lowe was Canada's general manager.
Oilers associate coach Ralph Krueger, who could very well be the front-runner because he knows the team and the players, is still waiting for a decision, too.
NJ Devils' Zach Parise can't see himself playing for NY Rangers
The Devils captain, scheduled to become the most coveted commodity of this summer's free-agent crop on July 1, broke his season-long silence on his pending unrestricted free agency Wednesday. He said he would not consider crossing lines in the heated Hudson River rivalry.
Instead, Parise insisted he has never imagined himself wearing a sweater other than that of the Devils, the team he led to the Stanley Cup Finals this spring in his seventh NHL season.
"I've said all along, I've loved playing here," Parise said. "I've always appreciated everything that this organization's done for me. My feelings have never changed."
Several teams, including his home state Minnesota Wild, are expected to bid for Parise's services once he hits the market, but when asked if he could ever see himself playing in a Rangers jersey, the 27-year-old laughed nervously and said: "No."
When asked again about signing with the Blueshirts, he said no three times.
Parise's agent did not return calls, but such comments are not exactly the way to attract a high-spender such as the Rangers to the bidding war.
If the Blueshirts do not pursue Parise, they would likely have to make a trade to acquire their stated need of a star scorer.
Most notably, Blue Jackets captain and top-line winger Rick Nash remains on the trading block
Top 5 pre-draft trade possibilities
1. Rick Nash, LW, Columbus: If talk indeed turns to action, Nash will be dealt this summer.
The New York Rangers, Toronto Maple Leafs and San Jose Sharks were left at the alter at the February trade deadline because they weren't willing to pay the massive price being demanded by Blue Jackets GM Scott Howson.
2. Roberto Luongo, G, Vancouver: There are a lot of teams looking for goaltending: Toronto, the Tampa Bay Lightning, Columbus and the Chicago Blackhawks to name a few.
The issue is the contract given to Luongo by Canucks GM Mike Gillis. He always considers himself the smartest guy in the room, but giving Luongo a deal through with a cap hit of $5.3 million through 2021-22 was ridiculous.
3. Jordan Staal, C, Pittsburgh: This guy would attract plenty of attention. He is the best third-line centre in the league.
The Penguins are going to have to clear cash if they're going to keep this team together. That could mean moving out a player like Staal because Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin aren't going anywhere.
4. Jonathan Bernier, G, Los Angeles: He could do just fine sitting behind Jonathan Quick.
If there's anything this run to the Stanley Cup final has proven, Quick is the man with the Kings and Bernier, 23, is going to have to be happy playing the No. 2 role until a trade is made.
5. Tim Thomas, G, Boston: The Bruins have a huge headache on their hands with this guy.
Thomas, 38, has declared he has no plans to play next season. He says he wants to spend more time with family, but many believe he wants to make sure he controls his own destiny when his "no-move" clause expires July 1.
Wild to go after Parise
Zach Parise declined to discuss his future on Monday night after the New Jersey Devils' season came to an end with a Game 6 loss to the Los Angeles Kings in the Stanley Cup Finals, but the expectation remains that the Minnesota Wild will make a very strong push to sign the unrestricted free agent.
Former North Stars president and general manager Lou Nanne confirmed as much on Tuesday during his weekly appearance on "Reusse and Mackey" on 1500 ESPN. Nanne said that after talking to Wild owner Craig Leipold last week he believes, "the Wild are going to throw the kitchen sink" at the winger in order to land him.
Nanne said he thinks the fact the financially strapped Devils lost in the Cup finals make it less likely that Parise will stick with that organization. Parise has spent his seven-year NHL career with New Jersey and served as the team's captain.
"I was under the belief that he would have to win the Cup to come to Minnesota until I talked to Craig Leipold last week," Nanne said. "I've gotta tell you, the Wild are going to throw the kitchen sink at him. I think there's a good chance he ends up in Minnesota, because I don't see anybody in the National Hockey League willing to give as much to Parise as the Wild are going to be willing to give. So I would not be surprised if Zach Parise came home."
Nanne went on to say that the Wild will pursue Parise and Nashville defenseman Ryan Suter, who also will be a free agent on July 1.
"They're going to do everything in their power to get them," Nanne said. "And I would not be surprised if they got them. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't get them. But I have to tell you, if they don't get them it's going to be confusing to me — especially Parise, because I really believe the Wild will pay more than anybody else for him."
The Red Wings, Rangers and Penguins also have been mentioned as potential landing spots for Parise, whose father J.P. played with the North Stars.
Parise heir to L.A. throne?
Up next for the Los Angeles Kings: First, a parade. Then, the pursuit of free agent Zach Parise come July 1.
These Kings have no intention of winning just one Stanley Cup. They want more. And they are not in any kind of salary cap conundrum, the way past winners have found themselves . They won't have to dish off quality players – or any players really – the way the Chicago Blackhawks did after winning two years ago.
And while they won't say so because they can't legally say so, the captain of the New Jersey Devils is No. 1 on their off-season shopping list.
They want Parise, as do many teams, and they want him badly.
Parise fits perfectly into the Kings' ultra-competitive philosophy, led by general manager Dean Lombardi and his able assistant, Ron Hextall. What they determined on their way to the Stanley Cup was what so many have known already. But until you witness it up close, experience it with your players – that fine line between success and failure often comes down to little more than effort.
And it's not just effort. It's a willingness to compete at a level beyond the norm. That willingness, when combined with superb goaltending by Jonathan Quick, terrific team altering leadership from coach Darryl Sutter, and all-world play from defenceman Drew Doughty, is why the Kings came out of the eighth seed and won 16 playoff games, losing just four, and now have an entire summer to celebrate.
In the post-game hysteria, Hextall, who was once the ultimate competitor himself, approached defenceman Rob Scuderi in the all the noise and spray of the Kings dressing room. He saw Scuderi, with a broken nose, a cut on his lip, a cut on his chin, is face looking like a work of abstract art, all from the game and series changing hit by Steve Bernier of the Devils and had to tell him rather loudly. "You're the reason why we won the Stanley Cup."
What should Canadiens do with No. 3 pick?
With the draft coming up a week from Friday, there's a lively debate over whether the Canadiens should try to move up – or down – from their No. 3 position.
Given the talent available this year, No. 3 appears to be a good spot. While there are a handful of players with the potential to be useful NHL players, there's no Sidney Crosby, no Evgeni Malkin. Nail Yakupov has emerged as the consensus No. 1 prospect, but there's a case to be made that defenceman Ryan Murray is closer to play in the NHL or that Alexander Galchenyuk would have been No. 1 if he hadn't been injured.
Because there is little to choose from among the top five prospects, there seems little reason to contemplate giving up an asset to move up.
There might be more of an argument to be made for trading the pick or moving down. But the only way that makes sense is if the Canadiens get an established NHL player in return.
There is some precedent for this route, but it falls into the you-should-learn-from-your-mistakes category.
In 2008, the Canadiens might have had a shot at John Carlson, Tyler Ennis or Justin Schultz, but they traded their first-round puck to Calgary for Alex Tanguay. He was so underwhelming as a Canadien that general manager Bob Gainey let him go after one season.
No matter which way the Canadiens go, the one thing they shouldn't do is trade defenceman P.K. Subban. I'm sure this idea isn't being thrown around when Marc Bergevin assembles his braintrust, but the idea seems to have some traction on fan websites and there are a few folks in the media who feel this would be a better team without Subban.
Luke Schenn-to-Oilers rumour riles Leafs GM
Brian Burke's disputes with the Mother Corp just don't seem to be going away.
The Maple Leaf president/GM was furious on Monday over a Hockey Night in Canada report that suggested there are "rumblings" throughout the NHL that Burke is prepared to trade defenceman Luke Schenn to the Edmonton Oilers for the No. 1 overall pick in this month's entry draft.
"Typical of Hockey Night," said Burke. "I have never discussed this trade or any trade involving Luke Schenn to Edmonton."
The report was part of HNIC reporter Elliotte Friedman's popular "30 Thoughts" blog on various goings-on around the NHL. Friedman said he doubted the deal would happen, but added that "many teams" think Schenn will be a better player outside of Toronto.
"There are rumblings that Toronto will offer Luke Schenn to Edmonton for a swap of first rounders," wrote Friedman. "No doubt Brian Burke would like to make a huge draft splash. He loves the big stage. And I do believe the Oilers like Schenn and have discussed his availability before. But I just can't see it happening for the first overall selection."

Tonight on Sports Final
@NBCPhiladelphia a hearty discussion concerning joe Banner and a @Flyers player may be causing problems w a trade
Report: Leafs shopping D Luke Schenn
The Toronto Maple Leafs are rumoured to be shopping defenceman Luke Schenn to the Edmonton Oilers as part of a deal where both teams would swap 1st-round draft picks in this month's NHL Draft, according to Elliotte Friedman of CBC Sports.
The trade would allow the Maple Leafs to move up and select consensus first overall selection Nail Yakupov, a 5′ 11" right wing from the Sarnia Sting. In 79 games this season, Schenn matched a career high with 22 points and posted a plus-minus rating of -6. He will entering the second season of a five-year contract worth $18 million. Meanwhile, Yakupov tallied 270 points in 107 games over the past 2 seasons in the OHL.
Red Wings Need Some D-men
The loss of Stuart and Lidstrom further accentuates the need for defenseman — be it through trade or more likely free agency — in the next several weeks.
Holland said he had brief discussions with other general managers at the GM meetings two weeks ago, but nothing interested him.
Players such as Ryan Suter (Nashville), Matt Carle (Philadelphia), Barret Jackman (St. Louis) and Dennis Wideman (Washington) are potential unrestricted free agents that will attract the most attention, with Suter the undisputed No. 1 target of teams.
There's also Justin Schultz, an Anaheim draft pick who has gone unsigned. Schultz will become an unrestricted free agent later this month and will attract a lot of interest — the Wings included.
"We'll be active," Holland said. "We've lost two quality defensemen."
Stuart played in 81 games last season, scoring 21 points (six goals, 15 assists), while averaging 21 minutes, 3 seconds of ice time. He had one assist in the five-game playoff series to Nashville.
Murray is a 6-foot-2, 218-pound center who split time between the Sharks and the organization's minor league affiliate Worcester last season. Murray can also become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, but it's not certain the Wings will aggressively work to re-sign him.
With the Sharks Murray, 30, played in 39 games with four points (one goal, three assists), while averaging 7:42 of ice time. He played in 10 games with Worcester, scoring three points (two goals, one assist).
Leafs and Oilers talking trade about the 1st pick?
Among the most troubling aspect of the Brian Burke rumours: They are being avidly spread by people he would consider friends and professional colleagues … Apparently, the Maple Leafs want to move up in the draft and Edmonton may want to move its No. 1 pick. A deal, one that could involve Luke Schenn, is not out of the question here. There's also been talk that Montreal's new management crew would like to move out of the No. 3 pick, which is an old Rick Dudley trick, and drop back, pick another player, and cash in on the early choice with an additional asset … Would any other team in the NHL come down to a choice between Michel Therrien and Marc Crawford for its head coaching position? Really, two guys coming off unsuccessful runs: has it become that desperate for Les Canadiens? … Television doesn't show Darryl Sutter at his best. The better you know him, the more you realize what a sensible, grounded, funny, man he is. But about that Dion Phaneuf trade?
Never mind … Sutter, by the way, was slightly troubled/embarrassed by what sat behind him in Game 4 in Los Angeles. The porn lady may have been behind Peter DeBoer, trying to throw off the New Jersey Devils, but Sutter was hoping no TV cameras would close in on him, where a guy dressed up as a woman (for attention only) was flashing behind him. "Someone," he said, "should have kicked that guy out." … Devils assistant coach Larry Robinson has been putting on a line-changing clinic with his defence corps in the Stanley Cup Final. And because he's Larry Robinson, he gets away with more than he should when he doesn't have last change.
HTR New Design – Options that you would like to see
Just as the title states. Please do not vent your issues here just let me know what things you would like to see happen.
* I have now changed the comments so that the new ones are at the bottom of the page.
Top 5 pre-draft trade possibilities
1. Rick Nash, LW, Columbus: If talk indeed turns to action, Nash will be dealt this summer.
The New York Rangers, Toronto Maple Leafs and San Jose Sharks were left at the altar at the February trade deadline because they weren't willing to pay the massive price being demanded by Blue Jackets GM Scott Howson.
The Jackets are in a tough spot because Nash has made it clear he wants out. His $7.8-million cap hit through the 2017-18 season means only certain teams can be involved in the discussions and he has to approve any deal.
Nash wants to be moved to a contender. The Rangers and Sharks both need scoring. Don't be surprised if the Buffalo Sabres try to get into these discussions.
2. Roberto Luongo, G, Vancouver: There are a lot of teams looking for goaltending: Toronto, the Tampa Bay Lightning, Columbus and the Chicago Blackhawks to name a few.
The issue is the contract given to Luongo by Canucks GM Mike Gillis. He always considers himself the smartest guy in the room, but giving Luongo a deal through with a cap hit of $5.3 million through 2021-22 was ridiculous.
Moving the contract is going to be even more difficult. Bolts GM Steve Yzerman has declared he wants nothing to do with that kind of trade. Toronto GM Brian Burke would have to swallow his pride to acquire Luongo.
Burke has often been an opponent of long-term deals. Perhaps the only hope for Gillis and the Canucks is an "amnesty" clause in the new CBA. That would allow the Canucks to buy him out and not have a cap hit.
Staal brothers put together?
Keep an eye on the Carolina Hurricanes when it comes to how things play out on the Jordan Staal front with the Pittsburgh Penguins.
As I wrote recently, the Penguins' top priority is to sign Sidney Crosby and Staal to contract extensions this summer — both centers are UFA-eligible on July 1, 2013 — but if they can't get both done in a cap-sensible manner, it could open the door for Staal to be dealt.
Several teams have already expressed an interest regarding Staal, but I believe the Hurricanes will be aggressive in trying to trade for him, with the idea to have him on same team as his brother, Hurricanes captain Eric Staal.
If the Penguins decide to open the trade market on Jordan Staal, Pittsburgh could get more out of Carolina in a traditional hockey deal than from other teams.
Why? While other teams might point to the fact that Staal has only one year left on his deal and won't want to give up too much for a pending 2013 UFA, the Hurricanes may be willing to take more of a long-term gamble that, given the sibling tie-in, they could re-sign Staal.
Either way, the Hurricanes are going to be an interesting team this summer. I believe they're going to add to their payroll and want to upgrade with one or two forwards.
New Jersey star Zach Parise would be a devil of a Blackhawk
Devils winger Zach Parise wouldn't be able to count his scoring chances during the Stanley Cup finals on his two hands if he wanted to.
Of all the Devils, Parise has felt the sting of running into the wall that is Kings goalie Jonathan Quick the most.
Parise has no points in the finals. He and fellow star Ilya Kovalchuk's minimal production have stood out in a series that would be much different for the Devils, who are in an unenviable 3-1 hole after winning Game 4, if their two best threats had converted. All they have is an empty-net goal between them.
"We do need to score; that's our job and that's our responsibility," Parise said, repeating a common refrain.
But the lack of production doesn't negate the type of player Parise is, nor will it affect New Jersey's desire to re-sign him or
numerous teams to pursue him.
Parise is one of two prized unrestricted free agents this summer, the other being Predators defenseman Ryan Suter.
Leafs eyeing trade up for Yakupov
One of the NHL's top offensive draft prospects, Nail Yakupov or Alex Galchenyuk, could become Toronto Maple Leafs, according to the Sarnia Sting stars' agent Igor Larionov. Or possibly both of them.
In an interview conducted by Russian hockey reporter Andrey Osadchenko and published on OilersNation.com Tuesday night, Larionov said that three Canadian teams — the Edmonton Oilers, Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs — are interested in his talented clients.
"(Oilers GM Steve) Tambellini told me: 'We like him (Yakupov). We want him. But we're going to make a decision the day before the draft.' I also know the Habs want to get one of my guys — either Nail or Alex," Larionov, a Hockey Hall of Famer, told the site.
"So do the Leafs. It is possible that the Leafs are going to trade their draft pick and get both of them. There is a possibility like that. Nail and Alex went to New Jersey for Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Finals. After this they met Leafs GM Brian Burke. Then Nail met with the Habs."
The Leafs currently hold the fifth pick in the NHL Entry Draft, which begins June 22 in Pittsburgh. The Canadiens pick third, and the Oilers won the lottery and the No. 1 pick.
"The day before this interview I talked to Steve Tambellini and Kevin Lowe. They really like Nail. However, at this point they can't promise anything," Larionov said. "The same goes for Columbus. (Blue Jackets GM) Scott Howson, Craig Patrick and Tyler Wright spent two days in Sarnia with Yakupov and his family. It's a serious indication they really want him.
Blues' Davidson Has Interviewed With Jackets
Agent says Jagr, Flyers working on new contract
Devils' Parise will soon wear new jersey
The clock is not only ticking on the Devils' season, but on Zach Parise's career in New Jersey, for when the puck is dropped tonight for Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals, it will start the countdown at T-minus-60 on the captain's impending unrestricted free agency
This all but certainly will be the final summer in which, a) players will be allowed to sign front-loaded contracts with huge signing bonuses that this year will also serve as lockout-protection; and b) players will be permitted to sign contracts without term limits.
Indeed, Parise can expect offers modeled after the nine-year, $60 million contract Brad Richards signed last summer with the Rangers, under which the center is receiving $24 million the first two years, including a $10 million signing bonus last July and an $8 million signing bonus due next month.
Parise, who will turn 28 next month, could attract offers of up to 12 years. He will certainly receive front-loaded, bonus-laden offers from the Rangers and Red Wings, who have millions to spend and the inclination to do so.
The Wild will be in, though Parise might want to think more than twice about going home to join a team in which he would be the best player by leaps and bounds.
The Sharks could be in. The Maple Leafs will be, though current general manager Brian Burke doesn't believe in front-loaded deals. The Bruins could become a serious contender. There will be others.
Given the financial realities in New Jersey, it's almost impossible to conjure the scenario in which ownership could cut Parise a $10 million check on July 2. And again, that's even assuming Parise's first choice is to remain a Devil.
It appears Alexander Radulov's days with the Nashville Predators are over.
According to the Nashville Tennessean, Predators general manager David Poile will try to trade the Russian forward's rights or allow him to return to the Kontinental Hockey League.
"The best way to characterize it is it's time to not pursue Rad anymore," Poile told the Tennessean. "If he wants to play in the KHL that's fine, if he wants to play with another NHL team I'd be willing to trade his rights.
"We feel the fit right now is not with Nashville," Poile added.
Radulov just completed an eventful season in which he returned to the NHL for the first time since leaving for Russia in 2008. He played 50 games for Ufa in the KHL before returning to Nashville in March and playing nine regular season games for the Predators.

Punctuation and Sentence Building Help
Punctuation in Sentence Building
Sentence building has everything to do with punctuation. Punctuation is not the only issue, but it is an important one. For example, with the help of punctuation, simple sentences can be combined to produce compound, complex, and compound-complex ones. For example:
- Doreen could finish the task. Lily knew she wouldn't.
When you read the two preceding simple sentences, you can easily understand what they mean. The question, however, is this: How can you express this idea using an interesting style that clarifies the idea even more? The answer is to add a small word that allows you to bring the two sentences together to form a compound one:
- Doreen could finish the task, yet Lily knew she wouldn't.
The small connecting word yet establishes a contrast between what Doreen could do and what Lily, by contrast, knows Doreen will do. Clearly, a connecting word can pack a meaningful wallop!
By the time you finish studying this chapter, you will know the differences among the four types of sentences covered: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. Obviously, sentence variety will make your writing more interesting. For example, read the following paragraph containing five simple sentences. No variety there! You will learn how to use combining words and punctuation to add variety to this paragraph and to your writing.
- A solitary mouse lived in the Timothy house. He crept about late at night. He looked for food. His enemy was always waiting for him. His enemy was the family cat.
Sentence building begins by reviewing the different kinds of English sentences.
Simple Sentences
A simple sentence is an independent clause containing a subject, a verb, and a complete thought. For example:
- Visualization prepares athletes for success.
No punctuation, other than a period, is necessary in this simple sentence. You can even add a compound subject, and the sentence remains a simple one:
- Visualization and practice prepare athletes for success.
In the second sentence, two nouns, visualization and practice, form the subject, but no comma is used to separate the two.
- Visualization and practice prepare athletes for peak performance and success.
In the preceding sentence, not only is there a compound subject but also a compound object of the preposition for.
- Visualization and practice prepare athletes for peak performance and success.
Still, no comma is necessary to separate the compound elements of this simple sentence.
Compound Sentences
Move on now to compound sentences, and you need to add punctuation. A compound sentence is composed of two independent clauses brought together by a comma and conjunction or just a semicolon.
Using Coordinating Conjunctions
As you will learn, there are two ways to connect these complete thoughts, but a comma alone is not one of them. Do you remember studying these coordinating conjunctions in Chapter 2?
- for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so
You can easily remember these coordinating conjunctions by using the acronym FANBOYS. The letters are the first letter of each conjunction

The Sun-Sentinel reports:
TALLAHASSEE — Florida's re-drawn congressional map intentionally favors Republicans in violation of the anti-gerrymandering standards voters approved in 2010 and will have to be re-drawn, according to a ruling late Thursday from a Tallahassee judge.
The judge found particular problems with two seats that knife through Central Florida, held by Reps. Corrine Brown, D-Jacksonville, and Daniel Webster, R-Winter Garden.
The 41-page order from Leon County Circuit Judge Terry Lewis will almost certainly be appealed to the Florida Supreme Court. But if the decision is upheld, lawmakers or the courts could have to go back to the drawing board to design congressional seats throughout Central Florida to comply with the Fair Districts mandate that seats not be drawn to intentionally favor incumbents or parties.
In his ruling, Lewis quoted President George Washington's farewell address warning of associations of "cunning, ambitious and unprincipled men" who could subvert the will of voters.
