LEWISVILLE—Joseph Fields, founding pastor of New Beginnings Baptist Church in Lewisville, will be nominated for a second term as first vice president of the Baptist General Convention of Texas at its annual meeting, Nov. 12-14 in Waco.
'Heart for missions and for serving God'
"Joe Fields has a heart for missions and for serving God," said Craig Christina, pastor of Shiloh Terrace Baptist Church in Dallas, when he announced his intention to nominate Fields. "He is pastor of missions-minded church that is supportive of the Cooperative Program through the BGCT."
Fields grew New Beginnings from a group of six people who met in his living room in 2009 to a congregation of 900 members and an average attendance of 400, and he continues to have a heart for church planting and cooperative missions, Christina noted.
New Beginnings is one of the top African-American Texas Baptist churches in terms of missions giving through the BGCT Cooperative Program, he added.
"Joe has represented Texas Baptists well," he said, and his re-election helps ensure the voices of all ethnic and racial groups in Texas Baptist life are heard.
Serving Texas Baptists the past year has been "an honor and a privilege," Fields said.
"I feel this is an assignment I was called to do," he said, explaining he agreed to allow his nomination for a second term out of obedience to God's leadership.
"I love the Lord, and I love Texas Baptists," he said. "It is a privilege to be able to listen to groups of people around the state, as well as to help initiatives and policies of the convention."
'A sleeping giant'
Fields hopes to continue to let Texas Baptist churches and their leaders know about the resources available through the BGCT.

"My goal is to share across the state the vast resources we have as a convention," he said. "I believe we are a sleeping giant as far as being a resource to churches."
Fields also wants to encourage congregations to support Texas Baptists' ministries through giving to the Cooperative Program unified budget.
"Together, we can do so much more, and the Cooperative Program is at the heart of that," he said.
New Beginnings benefited from Texas Baptists' support, he noted.
"Cooperation is in my DNA," Fields said. "It's a model that I believe is biblical, and I want to express the value of what we can do by cooperating together."
Before he started New Beginnings, Fields was youth minister at Westside Baptist Church in Lewisville, and he was director of Camp Exalted, a BGCT-sponsored camp for African-American youth.
He earned both a diploma in theology and an advanced diploma in theology from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.
He and his wife Shanta have two children, Austen and Courtney.

Mirrored from Sythyry.
One Zi Ri arrived at the gate of Draffmoug with zir entourage. The Zi Ri was Yylhauntra. Now there's a name to conjure with, to entwine historians and philosophers and idealistic revolutionaries and prime supremicists. Yylhauntra, the Zi Ri with malachite-striped scales, as bright-eyed and eager as zie was the instant that the peculiar appendage of Hren Tzen created zir back at the beginning. I will give the Vepri this: the surviving first-generation primes are indeed imposing.
I won't give them the following: the reincarnations of the no-longer-surviving first generation primes are not even known, according to modern theology and magic. Nor, I suspect, do they shine with forty-four centuries of experience and passion.
Yylhauntra announced zirself to the guards at the gate of Draffmoug. In due course a lacquered carriage came from the mansion of Verhump, drawn by four matched white stallions whose toeclaws scuffed the boardwalks. "Verhump is officially a simple philosopher and occasional guest-lecturer," remarked Yylhauntra to zir unremarkable companions, "but her equippage could not be more honeyed if she were an empress."
The coachman called back, "Good Zi Ri, O optime, please to note. Verhump is in fact the reincarnation of Wilsamander, of the first-created Rassimel. She is older than even you. What we give her is her due, and barely so!"
"Oh, Wilsamander of the first Rassimel! It has been a while since I saw him last. Perhaps because he had such poor tactics in the first war against the cyarr. Far be it from me to forbid you to honor him, or, as he now seems to style himself, her," said Yylhauntra.
(But the Cani man called Rainboat whispered, "Was Wilsamander even in the cyarr wars?" To which Yylhauntra whispered back, "no.")
Confronting Verhump
Verhump has been installed in the left wing of the Ducal Palace of Draffmoug. I rather have the impression that the Duke himself is stuffed in a closet in the smaller and shabbier right wing. In any case, the Duke was nowhere to be seen. Verhump, a shit-brown Rassimel in a robe of rubies, was awaiting Yylhauntra in a small throne room where a parlor would do.
"Yylhauntra! It gives me the greatest pleasure to welcome one of the first generation Zi Ri to Draffmoug!" proclaimed Verhump.
Yylhauntra can, when zie wants, perform a courtly curtsey as devastating as a whirlwind of scissors. "Professor Verhump! I am glad to be here, for quite serious reasons!"
"Your petition for an audience did suggest that there were deep matters which none better than I could assist with," said Verhump. "Of course, the full powers of Draffmoug may be placed at your disposal, if it is as serious a matter as all that!"
"I shan't be needing the full powers of Draffmoug. I shall be needing two or three hours of your time. Some might find it self-serving of me to start a Vepri movement in Inihithre," said Yylhauntra. Verhump's eyes widened; she had not expanded the Vepri past the cities of the trough, and here was Yylhauntra casually discussing starting a branch in one of the greatest cities of the world! "There is no question about what generation I am, after all. Whoever else may benefit and whoever may not, it is surely in my interests. So I wish to be certain about matters before I begin."
"Of course! I have rooms and rooms of evidence, of case histories, of historical and philosophical discourses, of theoretical analyses!" said Verhump.
"In fact, I wish to conduct an experiment of my own. I have with me two companions, whose history and morals in this life are thoroughly known and established and known to me. I wish for their generation of creation to be computed by your tools and methods. If you proclaim them glates, when in fact they behave like optimes, I shall not be well-pleased! But if you proclaim them glates and calculate properly their glatish behavior, my course is clear!"
Verhump looked just a touch nervous. "My most able assistants shall be put at your disposal, with careful instructions…"
Yylhauntra frowned, the devastating sort of little frown that suggested that zie was on the verge of ranking your recent suggestion as the stupidest one that zie had heard in the last fifteen or sixteen centuries. "Are you personally unavailable? This is a matter of personal importance to me, that Vepri methods can pick out which one of my companions is the glate."
Verhump rose from her not-quite-throne and curtsied. "I shall be glad to assist you!" She clearly thought to herself, One more slip like that and it shall be child's play to ensure the proper answer!

Maharashtra: FRA allows private medical colleges to charge Differential fee
Mumbai: The state quota students are likely to benefit in a big way from the fee regulating body's decision to allow private medical colleges to charge higher rates for their institution and NRI seats. The FRA will also stand to benefit from the collection made from these seats while granting approval to their seats.
This decision of the FRA has resulted in state quota fee for several colleges coming down.
MBBS tuition fees of K J Somaiya Medical College has fallen from Rs 9.2 lakh in 2017 to Rs 7.5 lakh in 2018. The postgraduate fee of the college has also decreased from Rs. 10.4 lakh for state seats to Rs.8.2 lakh. The college is believed to have charged Rs. 55 lakh for its institutional and NRI seats from students.
Similarly, while fixing fee for the health science courses the FRA keeping in mind the excess collection made by colleges from students applying in the NRI and institution quota category has accordingly approved a reasonable fee structure states the FRA directive. The same shall be applied in fixing undergraduate fee bar.
Private medical colleges had declared their intentions of not participating in the admission processes altogether if the FRA went ahead in its plan to strike down the three-tier fee structure. Last year, several colleges had set their NRI and management seats at three to four times the merit and state quota fees.
In a meeting that took place last week, the FRA allowed private managements to go ahead and fix their NRI and institutional quota seats on their own saying, "However, if fees for NRI seats will be charged at five times the state quota fee, it will lead to a dramatic 50-60% reduction in fees of state quota students for next year," said an FRA source.
Maharashtra colleges claim to have an annual expenditure ranging between Rs 30 and Rs. 60 crore. The FRA allows for an additional 10% profit and leaves room for 10% inflation, too.
An FRA member said, "As a large slice of the revenue will now come from NRI students, fees will be reduced next year as colleges cannot profiteer. That will mean the fees of state students will drop a lot and state students will benefit."
Soon after FRA struck down the three-tier fee structure, private medical colleges have decided to go ahead with their admissions. "Colleges have appreciated the FRA's decision and PG admission will start soon," Dr Pravin Shingare, Director, Directorate of Medical Education and Research told TOI.

How to Grill Shrimp TacosChristine O
Summer time means it's time to fire up the grill!
But where most folks immediately think of burgers and hot dogs, we've got something a little different in mind.
We're grilling up some shrimp tacos.
You heard that right, so let's get started. You'll need about two pounds of fresh shrimp, de-veined and with the tails removed.
Now it's time to add a little spice. Season those shrimp with some paprika, garlic powder, oregano, cumin, red pepper flakes, and salt. Toss gently in the bowl to combine all of the ingredients.
Grab some metal or bamboo skewers poke those shrimp through…just make sure not to do the same to your fingers.
Brush all of the skewered shrimp with olive oil to keep them from sticking and then place them on the grill over high heat. After three minutes, brush with more oil and flip them over to cook the other side.
Are your shrimp done? Then it's time to start on your creamy cilantro sour cream.
Once your finished with that, you can pour half of it over some green cabbage, red cabbage and minced jalapeño peppers.
Heat up your tortillas for a minute or two, then build your tacos.
Don't forget to squeeze some lime juice over the shrimp for that added kick.
We promise, you'll taste buds will thank you.
Check out this video for all of the details, get grilling and enjoy!

Another great post from Starship Earth offering a smattering of reports showing the Great Awakening is in indeed….great!
Please read this post, view the vids, and understand why this will not go on much longer, and…
It seems the Irish are definitely awake. They held protests in Dublin for Hitlary's speaking engagement, told her to go home and reminded her of Benghazi and the burgeoning body count. Love it!
Mr. MBB shows us a very curious seismic signature at Yellowstone Lake. He explains the graphs showing normal activity, making it clear why this one is so notable.
My favourite Canadian "Earth guy" Mike shows us breathtaking footage of the unbelievable speed of the rivers of lava released by Kilauea, and updates us on unusual global weather systems.
There has been another "military training exercize" death. Forgive us for raising an eyebrow over that news after several have been involved in specific sensitive missions that perhaps knew too much, including several Navy SEALS.
Here's a rather amusing account of another space oddity they can't explain.
Massive Explosion of Unknown Origin Rips Through Neighboring Galaxy at 'Incredible Speed'
This update from Evolutionary Energy Arts for June 24th touched on some of the devastation across the planet from so much water falling and other events; more fires in Northern California, out of control and forced evacuations; lightning strikes have a rare intensity and no one seems in a position to say the current chaos is natural, unnatural, man-made, due to climate change, mysterious celestial bodies in close proximity, the grand solar minimum, or the unusual planetary alignment Earth is entering with all the other planets in our solar system beginning July 19. Perhaps it's all of the above.

And a NXIVM update on the pedophilia and sex trafficking cult. Dare we hope?
For those catching up on Pizzagate/Pedogate, Ben Swann does a credible recap for us. He was just breaking information like this when he suddenly disappeared, told us he's okay, asked us to trust him, and then came back fairly recently to pick up where he left off.
The behaviour of some Humans is just plain embarrassing. Or are they even Human? Perhaps not. It's hard to believe people let politics control their emotions to this degree and drive them to attack others.
This article is in followup to the reports that President Trump's Press Secretary Sarah Sanders and her husband were driven from the Red Hen restaurant by the owner, who then called other "leftists" to gather there and continued to make the situation worse for the couple who went across the street to dine.
Whatever they're paying Sarah, it's not enough. I've not seen a better press secretary.

Best Coast "Crying" (Roy Orbison cover)
Published Mar 11, 2013While Best Coast gears up for a new EP and a Record Store Day 7-inch, singer Bethany Cosentino has shared a cover of Roy Orbison's "Crying."
Judging by the sound of this acoustic rendition, it seems to have been roughly recorded at home. It's a fairly simply version of the song, consisting of acoustic strumming, tambourine clinks, layered vocal harmonies, and a generous dose of reverb. At the end of the track, you can hear a few meows from Cosentino's meme-worthy tabby cat Snacks.

The Santa Barbara Humane Society is dedicated to the welfare of animals and strives to offer a protected haven for homeless dogs and cats until we're capable of finding forever homes for them. And adoption counselors at shelters, like the Dumb Mates League, may also help you find the perfect dog for your loved ones. In the meantime, folks purchase tens of 1000's of canine from pet mills, the place lots of and even 1000's of dogs live in cramped situations.
Puppy Boot Camp offers an important alternative for you to actually get to know – and love – a canine prior to adoption. First, fill out an adoption survey, either at our shelter or prematurely by clicking on the hyperlinks supplied. For a lot of canines at the shelter we have no information about how they're with cats.
Designing an internet site that encourages individuals to adopt canines reasonably than purchase from breeders was a project I really loved. Before coming to the shelter, you may need to overview our Adoption Info web page and print out a duplicate of our canine adoption software (English).
Susan wants a dog for her household, not so that she will be able to community with new people. Posh Pets is empowered by our community of caring foster properties, in addition to our No-Kill shelter in Lengthy Island and our Westchester adoption center. Below are the canines and puppies currently out there for adoption at Homeward Pet.

Patients' nightmares, insomnia, depression and suicidal tendencies were assessed through several questionnaires.
Researchers found that severe nightmares can be an acute warning sign and risk factor for suicide.
Health experts also noted that sleep complaints are now among the top ten warning signs of suicide by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
The findings were presented at the 23rd Annual Meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies.

The software development landscape changes constantly. New areas of specialization, technologies, and methodologies pop into existence every few months, forged by the relentless innovation of the software industry. With it, terms to describe specialized types of developers become part of the unofficial industry lingo and show up in job ads and corporate titles.
Before the existence of the internet, many of these specializations didn't exist. The worldwide web has shifted most aspects of our lives, including revolutionizing the career paths of software engineers.
There isn't an official industry glossary of terms. Understanding the skills that each type of developer needs to have is confusing to newcomers, and can be intimidating to non-technical people.
The cheat sheet below highlights the 3 major It Developer categories
Other tiers similar to frontend, backend and full-stack developer include Middle-Tier Developer, which is a developer who writes non-UI code that runs in a browser and often talking to non-core code running on a server. In general, middle tier is the "plumbing" of a system. The term middle-tier developer is used to describe someone who is not specialized in the front-end or the back-end but can do a bit of both, without being a full stack developer. Only rarely engineers have this as a title, as it is more of a description of a skill set than a career path.

Third-party civil penalties have been with us in one form or another, but the Guindon decision has done little to remove the mystique surrounding the assessment of such penalties.

This session will provide an overview of the legislative tools intended to target taxpayers, advisors, planners, promoters and preparers. It will also outline and summarize the CRA's position related to third-party penalties, the third party civil penalty audit, appeal and litigation process.
Afterwards there will be a discussion of the current status of audit and appeals, raised issues, and traps. We will also critique and debate the scope of the penalties and risk management issues for preparers and planners.

Four Ads on Top: The Wait Is OverBlog Post: February 19, 2016
Some sources consider, that Google came to the point of the "peak search query volume", as the total number of searches is growing really slow or is close to flat. Because of that, generating additional revenue is getting more difficult and the successive attempts of monetization of their product are visible.
"Since mobile doesn't support the right-hand column, Google may be trying to standardize the advertising ecosystem across devices."
To be honest, I don't think it's the matter of design. Right now, the situation on mobile is more close to "winner takes all" in terms of ad visibility. With all of the sitelinks, snippets, mobile app extensions, app install campaigns (and growing inventory of new formats, like ads designed for automotive, hotels, etc.), ads on lower positions are almost invisible - especially in the highly competitive industries.
On the other hand, the space at the top of SERPs is getting more and more crowded, so it's better for Google to make a better use of it and let more advertisers in, without sacrificing their product's overall quality.
Some might think, that the future of search are 10 ads throughout the page the and no organic results whatsoever. Well, personally I think this is less likely to happen.
Ads on lower positions, like search results from below the fold, are giving hardly any profit to advertisers, as the majority of clicks occur elsewhere (not mentioning the fact, that ten ads next to each other would kill their efficiency for good).
Besides that, Google is able to monetize mainly searches with the commercial intent (examples mentioned in this article shows that quite well), so there is no reason to make this (4 ads on top) as a standard for every type of query.

Poplar pensioner who accessed more than 50,000 child abuse images gets suspended jail sentence
PUBLISHED: 15:24 10 October 2019 | UPDATED: 16:04 10 October 2019
A pensioner has been given a suspended sentence after accessing more than 50,000 child abuse images.
Michael Aitken from Poplar made available more than 840 child abuse files between November 23 and 25, 2017 for others to download.
He was caught after National Crime Agency (NCA) officers traced an IP address to the 67-year old's home where he lived alone.
They recovered 22 devices including three hard drives, a laptop and desktop computer.
He was arrested in March 2018 but when interviewed provided no comment responses. He was charged with three counts of making indecent images of children.
You may also want to watch:
NCA operations manager Jason Booth said: "Offenders like Aitken who build up vast child abuse catalogues and make images available to other criminals are fuelling the problem and endangering children.
"There is an undeniable link between offenders looking at abuse images and going on to commit actual contact child sexual abuse."
After admitting the crimes, Aitken was sentenced to 10 months in jail suspended for two years, put on the sex offenders register for 10 years and made the subject of a sexual harm prevention order today (October 10) at Snaresbrook Crown Court.

Recap | Box Score |
Clemson Head Coach Oliver Purnell
On his general thoughts of his team's performance: "Anytime you can get out to a quick start, it's good. We were able to quickly establish ourselves tonight. This sets up another big ball game against NC State. We'd love to get another one on the road."
On Cliff Hammonds' recent play: "I can't imagine anyone playing better than he is. He's scoring, he's guarding, he's handling the basketball, he's handling pressure. The biggest thing he's giving us right now is leadership."
On the defensive intensity throughout the game: "We kept the pedal to the metal, in trucking terms. It was nice to see; we wanted our defense to get better, because we let up last game. We pride ourselves on playing hard; if you watch us, you can see that."
On Demontez Stitt's poise: "He's played pretty well since being back. Tonight, I thought he played really well. Sometimes, when you shift roles, it can be a little unsettling. But he's handled it well."
On containing Anthony Morrow: "We played "shoetop" defense on him. We made him put it down. He's a good shooter, we wanted to make him drive."
On his team's improved shooting from the free throw line: "Well, we got there."
Georgia Tech Head Coach Paul Hewitt
General Thoughts: "I give Clemson credit. Cliff Hammonds had a big game for them in back to back games for them. Clemson came out with a lot of energy."
I think Clemson executed their defensive game plan very well. It seemed like they made a concerted effort to keep the ball out of our point guard's hands.
I thought early we were not aggressive or assertive. They pressured us and got the ball out of out point guards hands. Once they started their run in the second half, it put it out of reach.
I thought we could have gotten to half time in better shape. We just didn't execute out of timeouts. We had a lot of road games and sometimes that last one can be a tough one. But you have to give a majority of the credit to Clemson They came off a double overtime game with UNC ready to go.
Hammonds is playing great. He is always a player I've liked. He's so disruptive on defense. He made some big threes in that first half and put us on our heels. Every time they needed to get a basket, he was the one to knock it down"

Former CIA officer Jerry Lee sentenced to 19 years in prison
This is third case in 2019 DOJ has prosecuted related to Chinese spying.
Jerry Lee, a former CIA officer who resigned from the agency and then came back, was sentenced to 19 years in prison on Friday.
Prosecutors said he conspired to communicate, deliver and transmit national defense information to China. Lee, who plead guilty in May, was accused from 2010-2013 of delivering files to China, after two Chinese intelligence officers said they would give him a $100,000 gift and that they'd take care of him for life.
In total, the prosecution said he was offered more than $800,000 by the Chinese government.
They went into detail about what Lee exactly had on him and what they suspect he gave to the Chinese.
David Burns a top Justice Department official said that the Lee case represents a "high watermark" of Chinese espionage cases, as well as the third case in 2019 that DOJ has prosecuted related to Chinese spying.
During the sentencing hearing, the prosecution said Lee had a notebook with "eight clandestine human sources," and names of people he handled personally as a case agent in the CIA. The defense claimed that the government "would know" if those agents were harmed. They said that simply having names of people in a notebook doesn't denote intent. The prosecution also presented a list of "21 tasks" that Lee had from the government which the defense said he never admitted to doing.
The DOJ also said the notebook contained "classified CIA tradecraft," including location of CIA covert facilities that could compromise employees and given the amount of money, prosecutors said he must've been giving the Chinese "top drawer" information.
The prosecution also said that it is "irrelevant" that there was harm -- as the act had already happened.
The defense also contended that there was no proof all of the money was given to Lee by the Chinese, and instead said he had other businesses.
"The government is describing its worst possible nightmare," a defense attorney for Lee said. But that scenario, was not the case they argue.
Prosecutors said that Lee had set up a business in which he claimed to have tobacco companies, the British Consulate and Gucci as his clients.
When confronted with the evidence in one interview with the FBI about the fact that the consulting company he set up could be a front he responded, "I hear you, but I'm not going to say anything."
In one interesting exchange, defense attorney Nina Ginsburg said that Lee "served his country."
Judge T.S. Ellis, who also presided over former Trump campaign Chairman Paul Manafort's trial, quipped back that the service is erased by "betraying your government."
U.S. Attorney G. Zachary Terwilliger said that Lee joins the list of "infamous traders" who they've prosecuted in the Eastern District of Virginia (EDVA).
A 2012 hotel room search found that Lee had a USB drive with sensitive files on it, after he first denied its existence.
The government said Lee continuously lied to them when confronted by both the CIA and FBI with the information, until finally coming clean in January 2018.
Lee, in his speech to the court, apologized for his actions.
"I can only say I'm sorry," Lee said. Adding that he "takes responsibility" for his actions and that he "let his country down."
Prosecutors wanted to be the ones who took care of him for life, as they asked for a hefty sentence.
"Lee sold out the U.S.," Terwilliger said. "What's worse is he employed all of his training to lie and obstruct."

City leaders, first responders and school, hospital and assistance organization representatives gathered Monday for a briefing from the National Weather Service and a sort of snow summit, as plans are made for dealing with the potential snowfall and cold temperatures Tuesday and Wednesday.
From the Birmingham NWS office, the expectation is that a "snow squall" will past through Alabama from midnight through Tuesday morning, dropping intense snow – as much as 2 inches per hour – on Etowah and surrounding counties, and those to the north.
The snow is not expected to last long, with accumulations of 2 to 3 inches predicted, starting in the early morning hours.
Travel problems are expected Tuesday morning, by the 6 a.m. time that traffic starts to increase.
Sunshine is expected Tuesday, and the temperature may rise to the mid-30s. That combination, coupled with windy conditions, may help to melt and dry some areas.
However, when the sun goes down Tuesday, temperatures will "drop like a rock" — into the teens — and any water that's on the roads or other surfaces at about 4 p.m. Tuesday will refreeze, and could pose travel hazards again Wednesday morning.
Gadsden/Etowah County Emergency Management Agency Director Deborah Gaither said the best advice is to stay off the roads unless absolutely necessary Tuesday, and monitor conditions closely for Wednesday.
While there were a lot of new faces at the briefing from various law enforcement agencies, the past was present, as references were made to the 2014 snow surprise — a sudden freeze and rapid snowfall that caught people unaware and unprepared. By the time people knew they needed to head home, the ice and snow had gotten bad enough to hamper travel.
This time, according to the NWS, conditions are different. Temperatures today are in the high 50s, up to 60 degrees; five years ago, temperatures were in the 20s for a day ahead of the snow.
Ground temperatures will be much warmer when the snow comes down, and that will make a difference in its impact.
Still, preparations were underway for travel issues and emergency needs.
Alabama Department of Transportation District Administrator Cody Adams said ALDOT has been treating trouble spots and major state roadways, including Interstate 59 and 759.
"On four-lane roads we're just treating the right lane," he said. It should be obvious to motorists that the right lane will be clearer than the left, Adams said, when snow falls.
Elliott Community Center will be open at 5 p.m. Monday as a warming shelter for homeless people, and will remain open through Thursday morning. The Gadsden Public Library will be open as a shelter during its regular hours of operation, which on Monday and Tuesday are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Part of the work to be done Monday by GECEMA personnel and Volunteer Organizations Assisting in Disaster personnel is preparing for those at the shelter, with food and essentials.
Gaither questioned Attalla Fire Chief Robert Dillard about whether Carnes Recreation Center in Attalla is stocked to be open as a shelter for stranded motorists. Dillard said he would check on supplies like cots and hygiene kits.
The next NWS briefing is planned for 4 a.m. Tuesday. Gaither said the Emergency Operations Center will be open at that point to monitor conditions.
The Etowah County Commission has canceled its meeting Tuesday.

Canyon-SRAM announced Thursday that they will swap out their usual team colours for a new design at this year's OVO Energy Women's Tour set to take place from June 13-17. Alice Barnes, who will be participating in the event, showed off the new kit for a series of images sent out in a team press release.
The new design will be splashed across the team's Canyon bikes, Zipp wheels, Rapha kit, Giro helmets and Boa dials for the five-day UCI Women's WorldTour stage race.
The team chose the fifth edition of the OVO Energy Women's Tour as an opportunity to highlight its partner's collaborative efforts ahead of the Rapha Women's 100, which is held in September.
"We expect this change out in design will bring even more attention to a fantastic tour that has since its inception five years ago, been the leading race on the women's calendar," said Beth Duryea, who handles the team's marketing and communications.
"Thanks to each of our partners that joined forces to help create a stunning result! We want to use this opportunity to have more people following our team's animated racing style, to generate more fans of women's cycling, and ultimately see more women riding bikes and loving it!"
The design is based on Rapha Women's 100, an event to inspire female cyclists across the world to come together to ride 100km on the same day.

7 militants killed in Pakistan's Swat Valley
Seven suspected militants were killed early Sunday in a clash with Pakistani security forces in a northwest valley once controlled by the Taliban, police said.
The suspects were believed to have been fleeing a Pakistani army operation in Mohmand, a tribal region bordering Afghanistan where dozens of insurgents have been killed and arrested in recent days.
Two soldiers were wounded in the clash in the Sardam area of the Swat Valley, after residents alerted authorities to the militants' presence.
Police official Sher Alam says the alleged insurgents are believed to originally hail from Swat.
The Pakistani military largely defeated the Taliban in Swat in 2009, but encounters with militants still occur.
Also Sunday, in Mohmand tribal region a paramilitary fighter was killed and two other wounded in a clash with militants during a search operation in Mitti area.
Security forces also said to have detained 30 suspected people, said Zabit Khan, a local administrator.
Khan said about 250 families have moved out of the troubled areas of Bazai and surroundings over the weekend to relief camps established by the government.
No independent verification of events is possible because movement of reporters is restricted in the tribal regions.

Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?GrowthCurve Oct 2, 2008 3:16 PM (in response to bluebonnet2)They want you to put up the money before they fund it? If so, red alert.
I have never seen a legitimate lender work this way.
If they need some cash to cover them, have them hold it back from the loan proceeds.
The rate and term are also probably too good to be true.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?Lighthouse24 Oct 2, 2008 8:35 AM (in response to bluebonnet2)Two firms with the name "Rothwell Group" are listed with D&B, one in Houston and one in Ottawa -- both consulting firms. Is one of them the firm you are dealing with? If not, it doesn't necessarily mean that there's anything wrong with the loan deal you were offered . . . but if you were a lender (or any kind of financial provider these days) wouldn't you go out of your way to demonstrate legitimacy -- and to assure potential customers of your strength and credibility? If I couldn't find out anything about an entity with which I was considering doing business, I'd assume there was a reason and move forward cautiously.

Lighthouse24: No, niether of these companies are the Rothwell we are talking about. This one is in Louisville, KY. Their website is www.rothwellfinancial.com and the site has testimonials, but they aren't dated. During my conversation with them yesterday, I asked about the history of the company, and asked about the lack of public information made available to the public. The rep cited that there's no negative info out on them because of their good business practices. Express Funding gives the applications to them, Rothwell, a brokerage firm and Rothwell in turn searched for banks, private lenders, etc to see which one would provide us an opportunity.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?Lighthouse24 Oct 2, 2008 4:33 PM (in response to bluebonnet2)
For what it's worth, I have a listing of 178 different financial services firms operating in Louisville, from major banks to small business brokers -- none of them have "Rothwell" in the name. The KY Secretary of State shows two registered businesses with Rothwell in the name -- one is a local electician and the other is an out of state company (based in Cincinnati) that has a notation of "In Bad Standing."

Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?bluebonnet2 Oct 2, 2008 2:30 PM (in response to Nusantara)Thanks Nusantara.
I don't think that this is a cash advance company. From my conversation with them yesterday, they are a brokerage firm. The business loan contract that we have is 70K at 6% fixed over 10 years. Compound interest is factored in but overall it sounds like a good deal to us. It's a secure loan that requires a secure deposit of 9 months worth of payments. Monthly payments are $774.56 so we would have to provide that X 9 which equals $6,971.04 up front. We wouldn't make our 10th payment until August 2009
I also asked about ammoritization and found out that if we pay the loan off early, we'd be paying to the front end and not the back....and I am told that this fine print would be in the final contract.
Thanks for your offer to help us. We meet all of your criteria except for 3K bank balance because we have remodeled our business plan. We've been in existence for 2.5 years. Bottom line is that we need money to make money, because at present we are not making any. Though we are comfortable with the criteria as it stands, would you be willing to look over the contract for us? Perhaps you can catch something that we might otherwise overlook.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?Gladtofindyou Oct 3, 2008 9:22 AM (in response to bluebonnet2)I also was contacted by this Rothwell group after filling out a web form on the Express Funding website. They offered the exact same 6% for 10 years on a 300K business startup loan. All they wanted was the first 2 months upfront. I figured something was fishy as loan applications usually take several months and require some serious collateral. They faxed me a simple looking loan contract with their signature already filled out and Witnessed. Thanks for confirming my suspicions. I hope anyone who is contacted by this group finds this forum and doesnt get taken by these guys.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?GrowthCurve Oct 2, 2008 3:34 PM (in response to bluebonnet2)
My advice is to forget about this company. I think you are being set up to be taken (especially if they are asking you for money in advance).
First, there is no address or phone number on the Web site www-dot-rothwellfinancial-dot-com.
This should be your first warning.
However, a quick "whois" of this domain reveals the following.
There is no name given with the domain registration. In some cases, people intend for this to be private, but if you are dealing with a reputable company, especially one working in finance, wouldn't you rather know who is behind the company?
The address given for the domain registration is:
This is in Kentucky.
There is no entity -- corporation, partnership -- organized or doing business legally in the state of Kentucky under the name Rothwell Financial. You can check this out for yourself.
Another red flag, the domain name was registered by someone with an IP address in Singapore.
Finally, the domain was created only on 9/25/08, or about a week ago. I don't know about you, but unless I can see someone face to face, I'm not excited about doing financial business with a company that's been around a week.
Do your homework, and be careful.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?bluebonnet2 Oct 2, 2008 10:04 PM (in response to GrowthCurve)
GrowthCurve! It looks like you have done our homework for us! THANK YOU! After seeing your email, we contacted Express Funding Group (the company that we originally filled out the online pre-application for) and asked them how they were affiliated with Rothwell and would you believe that they do not know who Rothwell is. I emailed the rep the loan agreement and upon review, she could not draw any connection. She said she'd show it to her supervisor...and she confirmed in her records that no one from that office ever contacted me. Furthermore, she disclosed that this is not how Express Funding works...that they do not seek out banks, private lenders and investors for the applications recevied. Instead, they do all of the work in their office.
So it seems apparent to us that our application was intercepted by Rothwell. And judding from the reponse from Josh, the same thing probably happened to him.
Thanks again!!! We sincerely appreciate your help on our behalf. Sadly we don't have the capital needed to move forward, but at least we aren't 7K in the hole.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?scammed1 Oct 19, 2008 3:56 PM (in response to bluebonnet2)Hello,
We needed extra cash so filled out the express funding group's online application. We actually fell for their scam. We were soo desperate for the money that we signed the contract & everything and sent them money. Does anyone know who we can contact to get our money back or if there is any action that we can take against them? We already have to shut down all of our accounts because we faxed them copies of check stubs & drivers licenses. Any help would be greatly appreciated ASAP. Thanks
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?bluebonnet2 Oct 19, 2008 6:37 PM (in response to scammed1)To the both of you, I recommend that you review the prior page showing the BBB report that I posted. I seriously doubt that you will get your money back....and to clarify, I do not think that Express Funding is the problem. It's the Rothwell Financial Group. I've spoken with reps from Express Funding and they are legitimate and are even in litigation with Rothwell. Some how Rothwell figured out how to get Express Funding's online inquiries routed to them. As a result, you may very well not receive a confirmation email when filling out the express application. That's what happened to us. I am sorry that you lost your money. I would just contact the BBB to file a claim.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?stephrock Dec 12, 2008 11:11 AM (in response to bluebonnet2)I am soooo glad I found this forum about Express before I proceeded. I was just wondering after all the hullabaloo, did you ever get financed through Express? Can you give me any specifics or words of wisdom?
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?josh7222 Oct 2, 2008 6:48 PM (in response to bluebonnet2)
I was contacted by the same group after signing up with Express funding. The terms are pretty much the same. The monthly payment is also very close. I am not sure about doing this because:
No record in the BBB
Did not even ask to look at my business plan
IP after the WHOIS lookup is in Singapore like someone mentioned earlier
Why do you need to put up money before you borrow money? Isn't that the reason why you are borrowing?
Guy sounded like he was reading off of a script
Let me know if you go through with it and how it turns out.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?bluebonnet2 Oct 2, 2008 7:25 PM (in response to josh7222)Josh, we also checked the BBB and didn't see anything on them. Likewise, we submitted a request to them to create a report on Rothwell. Did you speak to a James Eastwood? Whenever I call him, I have to announce my name before he'll pick up the call.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?josh7222 Oct 2, 2008 10:05 PM (in response to bluebonnet2)No, I spoke with Richard Gladstone. I find it weird to say my name before they will talk. Does not seem very professional. It is just a bummer because I need this business loan asap and a bank wants my first born baby plus my right arm as collateral. I am doing more research tomorrow. Is there a way to send a secured check and it only clears when you receive the loan money?
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?bluebonnet2 Oct 3, 2008 9:22 AM (in response to josh7222)Same here! We're at a standstill ourselves...sitting on great potential business until a loan comes through. At this point we are spooked about what everyone found out and are reluctant to go any further...so I don't want to see what happens if I send them the 7K....so not gonna do it. Let me know what you find out in your research.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?josh7222 Oct 3, 2008 11:06 AM (in response to bluebonnet2)BBB is looking into the business. I am trying to see if there is a way to put the $7700 in a secure account and will only be released if I get my $100,000. Only thing I can think of is putting it in a secured CD in a 3rd party bank.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?GrowthCurve Oct 3, 2008 11:09 AM (in response to josh7222)Josh -
In my opinion, you are working too hard to find a way to make this work, even when it won't.
Think about it...if the company needs $7,700 in the bank before they can advance you the $100,000, why wouldn't they just advance you $92,300 and put the remaining $7,700 in the account that they need?
I know that you probably had big plans for that $100,000, but I don't see it happening -- at least not with Rothwell Financial.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?michpi Oct 6, 2008 12:59 PM (in response to GrowthCurve)We wanted to give some new info on Rothwell Financial / Rothwell Financial Group . This company is 100% scam. We are a private investigation company and were contacted by a Mike Brown (no offense but if that isnt suspect enough to start) after also submitting for a business loan of $40,000. Same scenario as previously where they required $4500 down on the loan which to me sound fishy right from the start. After some investigation, there is almost no info on the company but they claim to be at 10400 Linn Station Rd. Louisville KY 40223 and "Mike Brown" admittedly told me they were in Suite 205. When I contacted building management they told me they have never heard of Rothwell Financial nor do they have a Suite 205 .
We have contacted the authorities and notified building management at the Linn Station Rd Address and they are aware of the situation. We are now in process of tracing the IP address thru the emails sent to me to get a location on who is behind this deal. Also, the previous poster was correct in stating that the domain name was just created September 29, 2008 and the website is a cookie cutter flash site with basic info, non of which includes their address.
I guarantee the phone number 877-621-3149 will most likely soon be disconnected.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?michpi Oct 6, 2008 12:58 PM (in response to GrowthCurve)New Update: My contact, "Mike Brown" accidentally called himself James. As I look at the people that posted someone claimed their agent was named James Eastwood. After outting them as fakes I asked him to spell his name and he said "Sir, my name is Jame... Mike Brown." I asked him why he would start to say his name was James and he clammed up. He said, "I never said that!" I asked him why he would say he was in Suite 205 when in fact there was no Suite 205. He then said "That was Absurd!" he claimed he had been with the company for 4 years and that they had been in business for over 14 years. It was only after I called and left a message that I was ready to send the cash "security" money, that they started answering my phone calls again. When I asked to speak with a supervisor he told me, it wouldnt matter as he was handling my loan.
As an additional note the person I spoke with "Mike Brown" who is obviously also "James Eastwood" spoke with a real "trying to be articulate" tone of voice. Trying too hard to be professional. After I got him spun up the real person came out and he lost all "articulation" along with the fact that he got very flustered, IE: starting to say his name was James.
Also he claimed that the reason they needed the "security" payment was due to the "State of the Economy"
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?bluebonnet2 Oct 7, 2008 9:09 AM (in response to michpi)Very interestting!
I spoke with James Eastwood today because he called me claiming that my rude lawyer, Frank, called him....incidentally, I contacted Express Funding Group (whom I believe is legitimate) and directed them to this very link. In addition I sent them the loan application from James Eastwood/Rothwell Financial....so it looks like they are onto him and their lawyers have contacted him. It is my belief, that somehow Rothwell Financial is intercepting the online loan applications submitted on other websites, including Express Funding. I told James that I didn't want to continue with the loan agreement and he ran himself in circles telling me the same thing over and over again. His reason for why I had to provide the 7K up front for a 70K loan is because the invester that he located is in Canada....which gives reason as to why they wouldn't use my car as collateral...because a Canadian company wouldn't be able to liquidate collateral in the U.S. He also cited the sluggish economy....
michpi - your description of Jam....Mike Brown is the same as our guy and we are not amused. Please tell me...was it through application from Express Funding Group (www.merchantloans.com) that Rothwell contacted you or was it through another website??? I betcha that they are intercepting tons of sites and that people are actually sending them money...much like I was going to do...and because of this, I think that they'll keep their infamous-toll-free-name-recognition-line going.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?michpi Oct 9, 2008 3:18 AM (in response to bluebonnet2)Yes Bluebonnet, I did go thru the site you have mentioned and I have contacted them directly and they are "very" aware of "Rothwell Financial" they told me they are currently in the process of finding out how the information was aquired by them. Most likely they portrayed themselves as a legitimate lender just to get the leads from expressfunding and that will soon stop.
I can tell you this, Mike Brown/James Eastwood is aware of this posting online relating to "Rothwell Financial" because as I dragged him along, teasing him with sending money to gain more info, I mentioned that there was no real info relating to their company online and without mentioning this site, he actually said "Well dont take peoples posting on a forum as a true statement regarding our company" Obviously they have searched themselves and have found this info and I can assure you that they are checking it daily.
I have now made it my daily ritual to call and mess with these mopes.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?GrowthCurve Oct 9, 2008 7:24 AM (in response to michpi)Looks like we have collectively outed a scam artist. Congratulations, everyone!
Hopefully we have saved at least one business owner from making a huge mistake. It's sad that there are people who will take your last dollar because they know you are clinging to hope.
This just goes to show you...have HAVE to do your homework, and if it's too good to be true, it probably is.
I'm getting ready to do a little more "homework" on a company that also seems to be taking advantage of small business owners. The sad thing is, you can find many replies from people who claim to work there right here in this forum...offering their "help."
If there's one thing I enjoy, it's helping people keep from sending thousands of hard-earned dollars to a scam artist.
Let's all keep up the good work!
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?bluebonnet2 Oct 14, 2008 8:55 AM (in response to GrowthCurve)GrowthCurve...I have obtained a 'growth curve' in connecting with all of you on here, so thank you for your contributions. It would be interesting to know about the research you find. I have the same speculations about certain ones on here....that they are not really helpers for the cause. We also received an email from this site....apparently someone read our posting and figured out how to obtain our email address through our forum posting. The subject line mentioned the BoA forum posting....makes me roll my eyes......
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?bluebonnet2 Oct 14, 2008 8:51 AM (in response to michpi)
Very interesting that he would mention the forum. He's still waiting on a response from me...I'm sure that he knows by now that we aren't game.
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?angelroses Oct 7, 2008 9:09 AM (in response to bluebonnet2)First off I want to say thank you for all the information. I was also contacted by a Nancy Cunningham from this "so called" company. When I confronted her about the info I found on BBB.com, she insisted that was another company and that she could assure me their legal team was investigating those allegations. My room mate was going to loan me the money to send as a "security" but we had some real concerns as to why we had to send it money gram, why we had to announce our name before Nancy would answer, why the contract stated USD if they are in the US, & why if my credit was so bad would they offer me a 6% interest rate. Well we made an appointment to go see this "so called" broker @ her " so called" office in KY & after reading that suite did not exist we decided not to go. Besides it would cost 100.00 in gas to get there. Any way I went to send a fax last night & their fax # had been disconnected. Hmmm imagine all that. Well my main reason for posting is that in hopes others will read and not be scammed by this "company".
Re: Do anyone has info about Express funding group/Rothwell grp?bluebonnet2 Oct 8, 2008 2:57 PM (in response to angelroses)
angelroses and ALL - This morning I received a report from Dorothy w/ the Better Business Bureau verifying our suspicions about Rothwell Financial....read below!
SCAM Below is our current report on the company.
Reliability Report for
Rothwell Financial Group
This is NOT a BBB Accredited business
The company you inquired about is Rothwell Financial Group. The company is located at 10400 Linn Station Road in Louisville, KY 40223.

BBB Rating Back To Top
CONSUMER WARNING: The company operating under the name Rothwell Financial Group is engaged in criminal activity, particularly the scam known as the ADVANCED FEE LOAN SCAM. It is against Federal Law to require any payment in advance for the purpose of granting a loan.The company is not located at the address given and is not known to be anywhere in the area of Louisville KY and there is no indication that it is a real company. A BBB trace of it's website indicated that the server used is located in Singapore Do not send any money or give any personal information to anyone claiming to represent this or any other company requiring payment in advance of loaning money.You will not be able to recover any money that you send. If you have given any personal information such as Social Security numbers, bank checking or credit account numbers, or any data you do not wish to be known the BBB strongly recommends that you file a FRAUD ALERT immediately. You may do so by calling one of the three credit report agencies (EQUIFAX @ 1-800-525-6285/ EXPERIAN @ 1-888-397-3742/ or TRANS UNION @ 1-800-680-7289).

You may also call the Federal Trade Commission at 1-877-438-4338 if you do not have web access.

While we will be happy to assist you in anyway it is not possible to process a complaint against this company as it does not exist. Once again, complaints should be filed with the FBI at www.ic3.gov
The Better Business Bureau has received inquiries about this business from people who have been offered a loan but asked to pay a significant amount of money, in one case an amount said to be the "first six months of payments," in advance of receiving the loan proceeds. This raises great concern, because businesses requiring such advance payments are generally scams. In the BBB's experience, a "lender" who collects significant fees or advance payments on a loan such as those offered by Rothwell Financial Services, prior to the time when the loan proceeds are paid, will take the advance payment but will never provide the loan amount promised to the borrower. CLICK HERE for more information about advance fees and payments associated with loan offers. If you have sent money to Rothwell Financial Group but have not received the loan you were promised, please CLICK HERE to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. The BBB would also like to hear from you in the event that you have received a loan promised by this business (although we currently believe that is unlikely to occur.) If you have successfully obtained a loan through Rockwell Financial Group and have received the loan proceeds, please sent a message about your transaction with the company to email@example.com.
BBB processed a total of 2 complaints about this company in the last 36 months, our standard reporting period. Of the total 2 complaints closed in the last 36 months, 2 were closed in the last 12 months.

DO NOT do business with this company. I have just been a victim of this so called company's scam. Unfortunately being in a desperate situation I did send this company $1500.00 and now and come to find out I will not get my loan nor will I get my money back. At this company I spoke to a James Eastwood and of course he made everything sound great and the contract looked good to and I fell for it because of having poor credit and I needed a loan to for my daughters tuition and hopefully my continuing education they offered me a loan. Told me my "security deposit" would be applied to my loan and my first payment would not be due till July 2009. I am very embarrassed to say I fell for this. PLEASE anyone don't lose out like I have done. I don't have alot of money and now I have even less. Please feel free to contact me regarding this company.

We are considering signing a contract for a loan from Rothwell; and upon researching them on the internet, there is little to no information out there. We came to them from Express Funding Group, http://www.merchantloans.com/index.htm. After filling out a pre-application online, someone called us from Rothwell. The loan quote is for a secure loan and the contract seems straight forward. Still we wanted to know if Rothwell has a history, whether good or bad, to help us in our decision.

In the earnings guidance for its second quarter Samsung blamed weak demand for its smartphones as one of the reasons behind falling revenue. The company might have hoped that the Galaxy S5 would have been able to turn its fortunes but apparently that didn't happen. A report published today claims that the Galaxy S5's sales are lagging behind the iPhone 5s, certainly a blow for Samsung, given the fact that the latter was released almost eight months before Samsung's 2014 flagship.
Research firm Counterpoint conducted a survey in 35 markets and found that the iPhone 5s sales stood at 7 million units in May as opposed to 5 million units for the Galaxy S5. Evidently customers in these markets were drawn more towards the eight month old iPhone notwithstanding the fact that a new iPhone is on the horizon.
Counterpoint measures direct sales from retailers to consumers as opposed to the industry practice of looking at shipments made by the manufacturer. Thus this paints an actual picture of the situation on ground, that in May 7 million iPhone 5s units were actually sold in the 35 markets that Counterpoint surveyed.
Samsung hasn't commented on this report but its no doubt worrying for the company as it continues to battle saturation in the high-end market. Some believe that the company will fare well if it turned to metal instead of plastic which is why there are rumors that a revamped version of Galaxy S5 with a metal build is going to be released soon.

Steven Stamkos hasn't played at Rexall Place since December 10th, 2010, a span of almost four seasons, however, he has had personal success both times he laced them up in Edmonton. He scored in a goal in both games, but the Lightning lost both times.
Oilers fans are hoping history repeats itself tonight. Let the best sniper in the game score on a wicked one-timer, but also allow the Oilers to pick up their first W of the season.
What will be more difficult for the Oilers: stopping Stamkos from scoring — he has five goals in five games this year — or skating away with their first victory?
I'd lean towards the latter tonight. Stamkos is the most dangerous sniper in the game, and the Oilers have allowed 24 goals in five games. Boyd Gordon's line and the Mark Fayne/Martin Marincin pairing should get a healthy dose of #91 tonight, and they will need to be on their toes to contain the former #1 overall pick.
What makes Stamkos so dangerous is that he can score from in close and far out. He is not afraid to go to the tough areas to score. He is also very rare in that he is a shooting centreman. Most centres distribute the puck more than they shoot it, and that makes it more difficult to defend Stamkos. He finds spots in the offensive zone that most centres don't. His coach, Jon Cooper, said Stamkos is finally starting to feel comfortable again attacking the net from the wing with speed. He mentioned that Stamkos had to overcome the mental hurdle of going to the tough areas again, and not hurting his leg, and he's there now. That is a scary thought for defenders across the league.
Gordon's line was excellent vs. the Canucks. They started every shift in the defensive zone, except the odd one where they changed on the fly, and they still managed numerous scoring chances. If Gordon had any finish they would have scored twice. That is the only negative about this line. They are solid defensively and will create some quality chances, but they rarely turn those chances into goals.
RNH line back together, while Draisaitl and Yakupov remain apart, which is a good thing at this point of their development.
Fayne has been really strong the past four games and he is used to matching up against Stamkos. I thought all the Oilers blueliners played pretty well against Vancouver, and if they can continue to make sound decisions with and without the puck in the D zone the Oilers' goals against will drop.
He played his best game of the season against Vancouver, and he'll need another strong effort tonight against the Bolts.
Losing Victor Hedman is a huge blow for the Lightning. He is tied for team lead in points with seven, is second in goals with three, leads the team with powerplay points, five, and he was leading their team in icetime before getting injured in Vancouver.
The Lighting will have to move one of Radko Gudas, Eric Brewer or Andrej Sustr into their top-four on a regular basis, and whoever it is, will be a huge drop off from Hedman. It looks like Sustr will be that guy in the top four now, but we will see how long it lasts. Gudas is also banged up, so Barberio plays his first game of the season tonight.
- The Oilers should seriously look at treating Leon Draisaitl the exact same way they treated Darnell Nurse.
- The Oilers need to start shooting the puck more. Taylor Hall is the only player with more than ten shots in the first five games. Hall has 20, while Arcobello, Perron, Purcell and Hendricks have 10. Justin Schultz has seven shots in five games and he is averaging 24 minutes/game. Shoot the puck.
- Tampa has had 24 PP chances in five games and they've scored seven goals. They are fourth best at 29.2%, but losing Hedman will hurt them.
- The Oilers have only had 15 PP chances thru five games, but are a respectable 20%. Only Winnipeg and Dallas have had fewer PP opportunities. The Oilers need to force teams to take more penalties, by being more aggressive with the puck.
- Tampa's PK is also very good at 89.5% (6th best in the league) and they've allowed two goals on 19 kills. The Oilers have also been shorthanded 19 times, but they've given up five goals and sit 25th at 73.7%. Last game was the first game this year they didn't allow a PP goal, so we'll see if they can build off of that.
- Good news on Viktor Fasth. He was on the ice today and the injury is not as bad as originally feared. He could be back by next week. Luke Gazdic is skating and is a few weeks away according to Eakins.
GAME DAY PREDICTION: The Oilers are tied for the worst start in franchise history, 0-4-1. In 1992/1993 they lost three, tied one, then lost again before beating the Chicago Blackhawks 4-3 in OT. The Blackhawks had lost the 1992 Cup final to Pittsburgh and finished 3rd overall in 1993. They were a good team, but the Oilers beat them. The Oilers will avoid a franchise-worst start tonight and pick up an identical 4-3 victory.
OBVIOUS GAME DAY PREDICTION: Stamkos scores his 6th goal of the season.
NOT-SO-OBVIOUS GAME DAY PREDICTION: Boyd Gordon scores his 1st of the season. He bangs home a rebound, that ricochets off the leg of a Tampa defender.
