Organizational rankings and top 10 prospects per team
March 15, 2011 From Daigle To Datsyuk Positional Value
by Corey Pronman
When looking at whom to draft come mid-summer, an important factor to consider is looking at the market of the league you hope these prospective players will one day be a part of. This line of thinking applies as well when you are looking to acquire players through free agency and trade. Everything comes down to value and production so you need to ask questions about the modern market that will help direct you towards the most ideal way to acquire assets. One of the common indicators of value in sports is position scarcity. While hockey doesn't have the amount of positions of a sport like football or even baseball, positional value does exist. At Hockey Prospectus, we've looked at the goaltending market at a pretty in-depth level, so I think I can safely discount goalies from this research as their value is at a low point due to how inseparable most of the market is from one another. Today though we will be looking at forwards versus defense and which positions are scarcer at which production points.
The common thought process nowadays is that the NHL has essentially leaned towards being a forwards-league so I decided to look at production by position to see if this was true. This graph shows how many players at each position produce at a given GVT/Game. It is also normalized for the fact there are many more forwards than defensemen in the league. The data used is using this current season and the 2009-10 season combined and there is a 30 games played minimum. There is a three period moving average because some points on the X axis had a very small N.
A couple of observations:
At the highest production points in the league, forwards stand alone. That is where players like Crosby and Stamkos produce and there simply isn't a single defenseman over the last two seasons who has had a GVT/Game over 0.30 while there have been nine forwards. While the sample is small, the difference between the top forwards and defenders is significant. You simply won't get the highest possible GVT/Game production from players on your back-end.
After the elite level when we start getting into the perennial all-star candidates and the top line/top pairing players there is a larger number of forwards than defenders. However the better way to look at that would be to see that defenders are scarcer at that production point than forwards. Putting it simply, it is easier to get a forward who produces 0.20 GVT/Game (Giroux, Burrows, Sharp, Clowe) than it is to find a defenseman (Lidstrom, Letang, Doughty).
As we move towards the meatier part of the population at a much smaller production point, defensemen significantly outnumber forwards. This is for league-average players such as second- and third-line forwards and mid-pairing defenders, amongst others. While forwards are usually the best route to go if you want high-end production, league-average production is easier found through the blue-line and is a scarcer resource when found in forwards.
For players providing zero or negative value, forwards outnumber the D again. This is likely explained through the fact that this production point is where most of the league's enforcers and guys who ride the bench reside and that role has become reserved exclusively for forwards. Coaches can't afford to have a defender ride the pine all game.
So if you wanted to look at this graph from a very simplistic view of how to draft, the answer in regards to which position to draft and when would be answered by looking at Iain Fyffe's column on Peak GVT by pick.
The first selection or two generally should be a forward if you can project them as possible elite players as you won't find that kind of production from defenders. If there is a defender available in the top handful of picks who you'd project as a top-pairing quality player, select him as the projected Peak GVT after the fifth pick drops below the two win above replacement level. Then from that point on in the first few rounds just go forward-crazy as most likely you will be getting an average player at best if anything.
This of course is not how you'd approach a draft as there are many more variables involved, such as a team's current system/organization, the draft class and the player's individual talent level and projected development path. Young forwards also tend to produce at a higher level quicker than defenders during their pre-UFA years. There also is the market factor in terms of how the positions are paid. All these variables are subjects to be examined further, as this was simply an introductory piece.

I think the info could also be applied to free agency. Defensemen as a whole seem to have a tighter talent grouping than forwards, so overpaying for an above-average d-man when there are similar players is a bigger cap sin than over-paying for an above-average forward given the skew to league average at that position.
I'm looking forward to seeing more on this - it seems to me that defencemen, particularly in certain areas (i.e. defensive defencemen) have a much longer development curve than forwards, which lessens their draft value.
I liked how Tango looked at development here (baseball): http://www.insidethebook.com/ee/index.php/site/when_to_bring_up_bryce_harper_to_maximize_performance_pre_free_agency/ I think I may go along a somewhat similar path. As long as you preserve the 7 years and age 27 for UFA reasons, then looking at when's the right time to start development is something worth looking at. Although to maximize value, your options are pretty limited. Not to mention the damn CHL agreement.

The Best Move Is The One Never Made
Poor Tony Reagins, all he does is try his best to create a team of winners yet he falls flat on his face time and time again. He's had some huge busts, there is no denying that, but he has also had his fair share of glorious victories. The oh so common saying "the best move is the move never made" is as true as it is old, but how does it apply to Tony Reagins?
Did you know his middle name is Dolt? It's almost as if his parents knew.
Game Preview -- Old Friends in the Big Apple -- Angels @ Mets
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (33-37) @ New York Mets (34-35)
Pitching Probables: LAA – Joel Piniero (2-3 4.03 ERA) SEA – Chris Capuano (5-6, 4.40 ERA)
Game Info: 4:10 PM PT; TV - Fox Sports West; Radio - KLAA 830 AM
The Angels head to the big apple to take on the red headed stepchild of NY Sports, the lovable Mets. In some ways these two teams are alike. Both live in the shadow of a more famous older brother. Both were born at roughly the same time. And both fan bases always seem surprised when their team plays well.no comments
Why Are People Surprised Arte Moreno Is Refusing to Add Payroll?
Yesterday, it was reported that Angels owner Arte Moreno has told GM Tony Reagins that he is not permitted to add anymore payroll this season.
Apparently this is supposed to be some kind of earth-shaking revelation. Why? I have no idea. Just because Arte allegedly handed down the ultimatum recently doesn't mean that this isn't something that has been common knowledge for quite some time.
All it takes is a little brain power and a little bit of memory jogging to see how this decision has been in the cards since this last off-season.
Free For All Friday: Enough WIth the Comic Book Movies Already
We all know I love the Angels, but some of you may not know that I am also a reformed comic book nerd. By reformed, I mean that I no longer actively read comic books, though I still maintain an interest. The main way I get my fix nowadays is via the glut of comic book movies that Hollywood has been churning out recently. In fact, I just got to see X-Men: First Class.
It was a very well done movie in almost every aspect (with the exception of January Jones' awful acting). I should have loved the movie. I should have been raving about it. But... well, I just don't give a crap anymore.
Maybe I am just getting old and the fanboy inside me is fading away, but this movie didn't do anything for me. Nor does the Green Lantern movie that opens today (although I am pretty sure I lack interest in that one because it looks like giant piece of green-colored crap). Not even the release of the Captain America movie later this summer has me excited.
I hate to say, but I think the entertainment industry has spoiled a good thing by inundating us with it until we are all oversaturated. Stupid, Hollywood, you just have to ruin everything, don't you?
A pretty good movie, but still, I just couldn't get that into it.
Halo Headlines - 6/17/11
Daily Links for the LA Angels including Moreno tells Reagins no more spending, more Kazmir release reactions, the Angels now have a three-man catching rotation and much more...
The Story: Arte Moreno reportedly told Tony Reagins that the team cannot add any more payroll this season.
The Monkey Says: I've got some more thoughts on this major but obvious development later today. However, this doesn't mean the Halos won't make trades as they could always do what the Rangers did last season and just give up bigger prospect packages in return for the other teams eating more salary. Of course, that means the Angels need to be in position to be buyers and not sellers at the deadline.
The Story: Assessing the demise of Scott Kazmir.
The Monkey Says: I think a lot of people overlook Kazmir's history of relatively minor but persisting arm problems. He never had to have major surgery or had to miss giant chunks of time, but my theory has long been that those nagging arm problems ultimately sapped him of his natural ability and velocity and screwed up his mechanics.
Top Ten Thursday: Angels Jokes That Need to Be Retired
Eating, sleeping and breathign Angels baseball is a great way to live... most of the time. However, there are a few things I could do without; chief amongst them is the collection of Angel-related jokes that have been beaten to death over the years. I think it is high time we identify these lingering pieces of unoriginal humor and ban them from the Halosphere once and for all.

The Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom has released a statement about the controversial meeting about fee hikes for California State students. The University Board of Trustees were supposed to meet tonight to discuss whether to impose new fees to students, including to charge 'super seniors' more to attend classes.
Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom said this about the decision to postpone the meeting:
"I commend Chairman Bob Linscheid and California State University Board of Trustees' decision today to postpone a set of proposed fee hikes and choosing to explore other options that will address CSU's funding issues while moving students towards graduation.
Over the course of the last ten years, tuition at the CSU system has tripled as state funding has been radically reduced. With the passage of Proposition 30 last week we have staved off dangerous cuts that would have guaranteed fee hikes and limited student access, but our work is far from done.
In choosing today to postpone the discussion of fee hikes, Chairman Linscheid and CSU Board of Trustees are sending a strong message to students and their families that we are serious about protecting access for all.
For more than a decade, California's higher education system been held hostage by the volatility of the state's revenues. CSU, along with UC and community colleges, must find solutions that end the vicious cycle of drastic cuts and fee hikes.
Our higher education system and economy cannot meet its potential unless this catastrophic trend is reversed."

Faulty wiring caused fire that gutted Ypsilanti Township home
Faulty wiring caused a fire that destroyed the interior of a home on Ohio Avenue in Ypsilanti Township Tuesday morning, a fire official said.
Ypsilanti Township Fire Department Capt. Brad Johnson said investigators determined a copper wire and an aluminum wire were wound together in a junction box in the closet of the home's front bedroom. Johnson said investigators determined the wires caused the box to overheat and set the closet ablaze.
The fire quickly spread to the rest of the room, consuming much of the interior of the house.
Ypsilanti Township firefighters went to the home on Ohio Avenue, just south of the railroad tracks near Michigan Avenue, at 9:44 a.m. Tuesday. Johnson said the fire was out by 10:07 a.m. and firefighters spent much of their time on the scene removing the home's contents and extinguishing hot spots.
A man and a woman were home at the time the fire broke out. Johnson said the couple was watching TV when the power went out at the home. The woman discovered the fire in the bedroom and, after they attempted to put out the flames with water, the couple fled the home.
Johnson said both were exposed to smoke and heat but they declined to be transported to the hospital by the Huron Valley Ambulance crews on site. At one point, the man actually ran back into the burning home to find the woman, unaware of the fact she had already escaped safely.
The couple plans to stay with friends and family in the area and declined assistance from the American Red Cross.

May 6, 2012 at 1:17 PM ET
The supermoon of 2012 is over, but the joys of moongazing are not. Even though Saturday night's lunar showing was the biggest and brightest of the year, the views are nearly as good anytime around the full moon — tonight, for example.
Photographs of the supermoon sight streamed out over online channels, including Twitter feeds, Facebook updates, blog postings and slick slideshows (such as our own roundup). They also streamed into msnbc.com's FirstPerson in-box. I've put together a selection of 10 submissions here.
The kind of supermoon we saw last night isn't exactly a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. The phenomenon, also known as a perigee moon, can be seen whenever the full moon occurs while it's near the closest point of its elliptical orbit around Earth. Last night, the moon was just 221,802 miles away from Earth, or about 15,000 miles closer than average. The moon's angular size was 14 percent wider than it is at maximum distance, and it was 30 percent brighter than minimum moonshine.
If we define a supermoon as the biggest, brightest full moon of a given year, next year's supermoon will be almost as good as this year's, on June 23, 2013. The supermoon of 2014 will be brighter, and the 2016 supermoon will outdo last year's, which got the moongazing fad started. EarthSky News has the schedule for the next few years. Some rightly note that the moon is worth watching on every night of the year, and that the full moon isn't necessarily the best time to see all the detail the lunar disk can offer. But there's nothing wrong in having an annual holiday devoted to moongazing, is there?
The next big sky event is coming up on May 20, when the new moon blots out most of the sun to create an annular solar eclipse. A wide swath of the Asia-Pacific region and North America will see a partial eclipse, while folks situated along a narrow track of territory extending from China across to the Oregon-California coast and down to Texas can witness a "Ring of Fire," in which the moon's disk covers all but the thin rim of the sun's disk. That'll be an amazing thing to see, but make sure you use proper eye protection. You can get the details from my eclipse viewing guide, and learn more about the appeal of an annular eclipse.
There's an astronomical connection between this weekend's supermoon and this month's "Ring of Fire": Because the moon was nearly as close as it can come for the full-moon phase, it's nearly as far out as it can go for the new-moon phase. Thus, the moon's apparent size is significantly smaller than usual when it tries to covers up the sun — and that's why we have a ring of fire rather than the fully blacked-out sun of a total eclipse. For that, we'll have to wait until November. Stay tuned in the weeks and months ahead for more about all these astronomical phenomena, plus June's last-in-a-lifetime transit of Venus.

Recipe by PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese
"This tasty appetizer takes only 12 minutes to prepare and is perfect for last minute entertaining. Guests are sure to love the modern twist on classic buffalo wings."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 (8 ounce) package PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, softened
1 (6 ounce) package OSCAR MAYER Deli Fresh Oven Roasted Chicken Breast Cuts
1/2 cup hot pepper sauce for Buffalo wings
1/4 cup KRAFT Natural Blue Cheese Crumbles
2 green onions, sliced
This is similar to the "franks hott sauce buffalo chicken dip". I change it up a bit and add onion and fresh garlic and sometimes red,green peppers. A definate favorite at any gathering at our house!!
Husband thought this was good, but could use some spices. I used reduced fat cream cheese, my own chicken breast meat and Frank's Hot Sauce. Very simple. Next time, I'll try this with ranch dressing mix and maybe mozzerella, as he thought that might be better.
10 Ratings
YUM. I cubed some cooked chicken breast that I had leftover and just mixed everything together. It was so tasty and satisfied my hot wing craving!
This is the best chicken dip Ive ever made. 2 changes: used leftover cooked chicken. Baked 350o 20 minutes
I made this for work and it was so good. I just eye balled the wing sauce and used shredded mixed cheese but it was still really tasty and none was left.
Yummy!! EVERYONE loves when I make this and beg for the recipe! DEF a staple in my household ESPECIALLY around football season

A crappy, backwater town in North Wales, in which there is nothing to do but sit in subway and laugh at passing chavs. Because of Bangor Uni, the place is overrun by hipster students sporting unamusing old meme t shirts and talking too loud.

The very northermost outpost of civilization in the United States, Bangor is the third largest city in Maine. The population consist almost entirely of whites, and a majority of druggies and other dirtbags. The only celebrity to live in Bangor is bestselling horror author Stephen King.

The best thing to do on a friday night in Bangor is get drunk and drive by Stephen King's house.
A "hill", as the people who live there call it. Bangor is commonly reffered to by teenagers as a "hole" (an old and payed out alot suburb). The only people that deny this hard as stone fact of Bangor being a hole is the Bangor people themselves.
Proof of Bangor being a hole is that the people of it always say it is so great when together, but completely fail to stick up for it when alone.

Poor man's mobile base
Posted November 6, 2013
It will get the job done but a nuisance putting it together. I thought it would be smart to put the foot pedal towards the back of my router table, i.e. the long length wise dimension, out of the way. Big mistake. It made steering a real pain. Try putting it on the narrowest dimension of your tool for much better steering.
Deciding the other night to correct that mistake had me re-visiting all over again what a pain in the butt it was putting it together in the first place. Drilling holes through 1.5" wood to have it exit exactly where the metal bracket hole is on the other side, is no easy feat. Lots of hammering to brute force the bolt through.

Pros 1. All needed hardware included...
Posted October 14, 2012
Pros 1. All needed hardware included 2. Corner pieces are stout 3. Works about as expected Cons 1. Instructions are inaccurate. Calls for drilling 7/16 holes. Correct size is 5/16. Cut lengths for runners are incorrect. 2. Corner pieces on one side are canted out. Weight of the tool may force it back straight, but I'm not sure. In short it works as it should, but you need to be careful to assemble it using your own measurements.
The stand is a good value...
Posted August 28, 2012
The stand is a good value for the price but it takes a lot of time to put together. Next time I would rather spend the extra money for a ready made stand. The advantage of this design is that you can make it whatever size you need for a tool. The time required would have been less with better directions. No parts were specified so I needed to do a pre-assembly to be sure I had what was needed and to determine which nuts were used where. The directions are also incorrect in stating that the wood should be cut to a length that is 1/2" greater than the size needed for the tool. For one side where the fixed feet go that is true but for the opposite side where two wheels mount the length needs to be 2" less than the overall dimension of the tool's base or the wheels have no place to go. I could only mount the saw stand's legs in one direction so I reversed the saw on the stand before placing the stand on the mobile base. I did this so that the pivot for the roller would be on the back side of the table saw when it was in use. Otherwise I would be tripping over it all the time.
My most recent purchase of this...
Posted July 23, 2012
My most recent purchase of this product was to support my bench top planer, that was mounted on a steel tool stand. I purchased 2 of these Power Tool Mobile Base units before, so I surprised to have problems this time around. On one of the wheels, the hole that the bolt went thru was too small. The 2nd wheel was fine, but this well wasn't drilled properly, so the bolt wouldn't fit the hole. I had to re-drill the hole, so the bolt would pass thru, and allow enough clearance so the wheel could spin. Anyway, aside from that, the mobile base is a good addition to the shop, and works well.
I purchased one to put under...
Posted May 13, 2012
I purchased one to put under my planer...it worked so well, I purchased a second one for my joiner...that worked so well, I purchased one for my bandsaw...and that work so well that my fourth one just came to put under my drill press and they all stack away from the middle of the floor. These are easy to install and work very well, I recommend them to anyone.

Chinese Firm Plans to Build World's Tallest Building, and Fast

What is vulvitis?
Vulvitis is simply an inflammation of the vulva, the soft folds of skin outside the vagina. This is not a condition but rather a symptom that results from a host of diseases, infections, injuries, allergies, and other irritants. Diagnosing and treating this condition can be frustrating because it is often difficult to determine the specific cause of the irritation.What causes vulvitis?
Vulvitis may be caused by one, or more, of the following:- scented or colored toilet paper
- perfumed soaps or bubble baths
- shampoos and hair conditioners
- laundry detergents (especially enzyme-activated "cold water" formulas)
- vaginal sprays, deodorants, douches, and powders
- spermicides
- douches that are too strong or used too frequently
- hot tub and swimming pool water
- synthetic undergarments without a cotton crotch
- rubbing against a bicycle seat
- wearing a wet bathing suit for a long period of time
- horseback riding
Who is at risk for vulvitis?
Any female with certain allergies, sensitivities, infections, or diseases can develop vulvitis. Girls who have not yet reached puberty and postmenopausal women sometimes develop vulvitis, possibly because of inadequate levels of estrogen.What are the symptoms of vulvitis?
The following are the most common symptoms for vulvitis. However, each adolescent may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms of vulvitis may include:- redness and swelling on the labia and other parts of the vulva
- excruciating itching
- clear, fluid-filled blisters (present when the vulva is particularly irritated)
- sore, scaly, thickened, or whitish patches (more prevalent in chronic vulvitis) on the vulva
How is vulvitis diagnosed?
In addition to a complete medical history and physical and pelvic examination, diagnostic procedures for vulvitis may include the following:- blood tests
- urinalysis
- tests for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)
- Pap test
Treatment for vulvitis:
Specific treatment for vulvitis will be determined by your physician based on:- your age, overall health, and medical history
- severity of the symptoms
- cause of the condition
- your tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
- expectations for the course of the condition
- your opinion or preference
- self-help measures (i.e., avoiding external irritants known to provoke vulvitis)
- sitz baths with soothing compounds (to help control the itching)
- hydrocortisone creams

Apogee Electronics Jam ($99 street) apogeedigital.com Apple Inc. GarageBand app ($4.99), apple.com
Pros: Jam offers clean sound and a gain control.
GarageBand is genius.
cons: Jam is too light and not very sturdy.
Tones Value
Apogee's US-made Jam certainly makes the company's entry into the smartphone field a competent one. The lightweight plastic housing is highly portable, but it's not rugged, and I would hesitate before tossing this into my gig bag, frankly.
(Perhaps a small, sturdy case would help?)
The Jam connects to your iPhone or iPad via an included 30-pin cable, which is good for sonic fidelity, though it actually makes it harder to keep things in place.
Without grips or a direct con-nection to your device, it's hardto keep the Jam in a stable posi-tion, because the weight of yourguitar cable alone can pull youriPhone and Jam off the table andonto the floor. Some kind of grip or clipsystem would be nice, and presumably theincluded Velcro is meant to remedy this,but how—by attaching the Jam to youriOS device? Not going to happen!
It doesn't have its own headphone jack, however, so you'll have to use your device's instead. To use the Jam as a 1-channel input device to a Mac, you use the included USB cable and choose "Jam" as your input device in GarageBand, Logic, or another DAW,

GILROY, Calif. -- The first phase of California's $68 billion dollar high speed rail project is underway and it's being touted as cheaper, faster, and more convenient.
With no stop on the Central Coast, how convenient and cheap will it actually be? The Center for Investigative Action went to work to find out what operating a high speed rail will cost each of us, if the state can even get the money to build it.
People in support of the high speed say it's going to be cheaper, faster, and more convenient to travel. To hear the high speed rail authority pitch the project, you'll travel in luxurious electric trains at 220 miles per hour from L. A. to San Francisco in about 2 1/2 hours.
They say it also brings job! Around 100,000 construction jobs and as many as 450,000 permanent jobs in the next 25 years. However, one of the main criticisms and frankly unknowns of the project is the cost.
The Center for Investigative Action sought out a non partisan source to get the facts about how much the project will cost the state, but more importantly, you. Via Skype we spoke with Dr. Brian Weatherford, a fiscal analyst for the legislative analyst's office in Sacramento. "It's expected to cost us $68 to $100 billion and we don't know where that money is going to come from," said Weatherford.
Despite that warning from the LAO's office, the state is moving ahead. Financially, the plan has only been set to fund the first leg of the project which is $3 billion in one time funding from the federal government. $2.7 billion from the 2008 voter approved proposition one a funding, a total of $9.9 billion dollars in bonds. Yet, the LAO's office says only $500 million of prop 1-A bonds have been purchased to date. It's very optimistic to think that we'll be anywhere near pulling the money together to the entire system by 2020.
So, we took the next step taking construction out of the equation, which is by far the biggest and most mysterious cost. We figured out how much you will pay for high speed rail just to maintain the system if it is ever built. We went back to the LAO's office and asked Dr. Weatherford what the high speed rail debt service would be to Californians during operation and their calculations found it would cost $700 million a year for 30 years. Breaking that number down, assuming the population of California increased to an average of 48 million people over 30 years, the per person cost for high speed rail would be $14.58 each year for 30 years. A family of four would pay just under $60 a year.
Right now the high speed rail is proposed to go through the Gilroy Valley. HSR is proposed to go through the area but no official assignments will be made until 2014. After Gilroy the proposed plan takes the rail line east and through the Central Valley to Bakersfield and the Tehachipi Pass along Highway 58 before getting into LA.
We took the individual cost to the streets. Some people we spoke to off camera questioned who would actually be using the rail line, and is the future profit worth what taxpayers are paying to build and maintain it. Others said this project may put ca on track for the future. "I think it would be very minimal as opposed to the upkeep on a vehicle," said Fred Hererra.
In the end, the question still remains will the money come through to get high speed rail built. The high speed rail authority hopes to get more federal funding for the second leg of the project but isn't sure where that will come from beyond 2017 when the current federal funding runs out. The idea for that second phase is to take voter approved Prop 1-A Funding. That's only on paper, and the real money has not yet been secured.

This exhibition will display a series of Kathryn Myers paintings which were influenced by her experience living in India as a Fulbright Scholar.
Tuesday, November 12, 2013 through Monday, December 16, 2013
Opening Reception
Thursday, November 21, 2013 | 5:00 - 7:00PM
An exhibition of paintings by Kathryn Myers, Professor of Art at the University of Connecticut. Kathryn has been working in India on a number of Fulbright grants to create small, intimate paintings of Indian urban spaces from multiple photographs. While on the surface they look like cute touristic images, they are actually fictive spaces, composites of several sources, foregrounding formal experiments under the disguise of an exotica.
This exhibit consists of Kathryn Myers's paintings of Indian cityscapes and landscapes made since 2004, and videos of interviews of Indian artists.
Cuarator, Sunanda Sanyal, Associate Professor of Art History on Lesley University College of Art and Design's faculty, comments: "While at first glance they appear as records of a (questionable) Western touristic gaze at an exotic culture, they are, in fact, more about painting itself...I feel it has an interesting, tangential relation with photorealism, and its subject, format and process will greatly benefit our students. When I discuss the relation between painting and photography in the art of the last few decades, I often find students confused and uninformed. This show, I believe, will have real relevance for our students."

Julia Kirchmer, Studio/Art History Major, Arts Management Minor, Class of 2013 - "It's important for an artist to understand what's come before. To make it new, you have to know what you're departing from."
Susan Ashbrook, Art History Faculty - "Effective learning requires engagement with the material. By exploring the work of artists of the past and recent past I hope to bring their accomplishments to life for students in a meaningful way that can inform and enrich their own endeavors. In today's world critical perspective is essential for success in the arts as it is in most careers."

Kraft Foods is in the middle of a dramatic transformation to embed innovation into every aspect of its business. Consumer driven technology is evolving at such a rapid pace that it is hard for corporations and their diverse employee populations to understand and agree on how technology can best enable the flow of knowledge and collaboration that leads to innovative thinking. Generational differences and a wide variety of comfort levels with technology impact the pace of internal change and the ability to roll out new tools quickly and effectively.
In this complex environment that many companies are currently facing, transforming the way the organization works is very difficult. Implementing new social and collaboration technologies will not work if a majority of the workforce doesn't understand their value.
Check out this one-hour Webinar with Vinicius da Costa, Associate Director for Collaboration and Social Business with Kraft Foods, and Doug Caywood, Industry Manager of Microsoft's US Consumer Goods industry organization.
In this Webinar they discuss the following topics:
Vinicius da Costa
As a social business leader and with over 20 years of experience in leadership and human resources management, Vinicius da Costa devotes part of his time researching the effects of change in the technology and social media spaces, and their impacts on the behavior of individuals with regards to communication, marketing strategies, and collaboration.
For the past 10 years with Kraft Foods, he worked initially as their IT Manager for Latin America, IT Global Strategy and is currently their Associate Director for Collaboration and Social Business. Previously, he worked for PepsiCo for ten years developing business solutions for manufacturing, operations, and supply chain.
Doug Caywood
Doug Caywood is a member of Microsoft's US Consumer Goods industry organization. This group works closely with Microsoft's largest Consumer Goods Customers to deliver greater strategic value and relevance to specific business and industry needs. Doug also leads the development of Microsoft Connected Marketing solutions in the US as well as Microsoft's engagement with Marketing Executives in the Consumer Goods industry. Prior to this, Doug managed some of Microsoft's largest customer relationship in the Manufacturing sector.
Doug's previous experience includes over 14 years at Hewlett-Packard as a Global Business Manager for strategic HP partners, and as a Major Account Manager for process manufacturing customers.

Chief Judge Michael J. Davis
Chief Judge Michael J. Davis was appointed by President Clinton and took the oath of office on March 30, 1994. He became Chief Judge of the District of Minnesota on July 1, 2008. He was the first African-American Federal Judge in Minnesota.
Chief Judge Davis received a B.A. degree in Political Science from Macalester College (St. Paul, Minnesota) in 1969. While at Macalester College, Chief Judge Davis was a teaching assistant in the Political Science Department and was a Varsity basketball letterman. He received a J.D. degree from the University of Minnesota Law School where he was Director of the Municipal Court Misdemeanor Defense Clinic and Chair of the Black Law Students Association.
After law school, Chief Judge Davis studied at the Hague Academy of International Law, The Hague, Netherlands. He served as a criminal defense lawyer at the Neighborhood Justice Center in St. Paul, Legal Rights Center in Minneapolis, where he is currently a board member, and as an Assistant Public Defender in Hennepin County.
In 1983, Chief Judge Davis was appointed to the Fourth Judicial Municipal Court of Minnesota. In 1984, he was elevated, by appointment, to the District Court bench where he served before being appointed to the Federal bench in 1994.
Chief Judge Davis has been an Adjunct Professor at the University of Minnesota Law School for the last 25 years. He has lectured at Oxford University, Magdalen College (summer 2003), and the FBI Academy Quantico, Virginia (Forensic DNA Technology and the Courtroom). In 2006, Chief Judge Davis lectured in Cairo, Egypt, as part of a training program for Egyptian Judges of the Courts of First Instance regarding Intellectual Property and Injunctions. In 2007, Chief Judge Davis traveled to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on behalf of the United States State Department and the Department of Commerce to encourage Saudi Arabian judges to visit the United States.
In 1999, Chief Justice Rehnquist appointed Chief Judge Davis to the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court for a seven-year term. In December 2001, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation appointed Chief Judge Davis to preside over the Baycol Multidistrict Litigation (or "MDL"). The Baycol MDL became the third largest MDL in the history of the United States, behind the asbestos and silicon breast implant litigations. In this capacity, Chief Judge Davis supervised pretrial matters for 14,500 cases, which represent the claims of tens of thousands of individual plaintiffs from all of the fifty United States.
Chief Judge Davis received an Honorary Doctor of Laws degree in 2001 from Macalester College, and in 1989, he received the Outstanding Alumni Award.

Pours to a nice buff head and clear brown color. Aroma is peachy, nutty malty and grainy. No hops detected. Flavor is bold and complex with bitter pecan, peach and sweet grain notes. Mouthfeel is medium and pleasingly sticky. A good hearty winter brew that is askew but tasty.

Serving type: bottle 12-17-2013 19:05:32 | More by StonedTrippin CFHMagnetOhio 3.5/5 rDev -0.8% look: 4 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5 I get a finger of sand colored head. The body is a good looking ruby brown. Head has decent retention. Decent attempt at lacing. Peaches are named on the label, and they dominate the aroma. Faint graininess is the only other thing coming through. Malt with bananas and peaches is the first impression I get. It gets a little wheaty after that, but the peaches just keep going. This is light-medium bodied. It starts going down rather quickly, but the carbonation seems to create some drag when it hits the back of the tongue. Overall it's a pleasant effect, as it helps keep it around longer for the flavor. Serving type: bottle 12-16-2013 16:49:05 | More by CFHMagnet |

This report details the January 8, 2008 sighting in the Dublin-Stephenville area of Texas, as detailed by Glen Schulze and Robert Powell.
Stabilize the camera on a tripod. If there is no tripod, then set it on top of a stable, flat surface. If that is not possible lean against a wall to stabilize your body and prevent the camera from filming in a shaky, unsteady manner. Provide visual reference points for comparison. This includes the horizon, treetops, lampposts, houses, and geographical landmarks (i.e., Horsetooth Reservoir, Mt. Adams, etc.) Provide this in the video whenever is appropriate and doesn't detract from what your focus is, the UFO.

´Sane´ gun laws brought to you by insane anti-constitutionalists.
Here are some great idea for these lame-ax NJ mayors:1. Employ the same "Stop and Frisk" tactics that were so successful in New York City in bringing down the crime rate and finding illegal guns.2. Enforce the gun laws that are currently on the books. File charges, no plea-downs.3. Force the judges to do their jobs and sentence these miscreants to jail time.4. Use Immigration Law to break up Mexican, Salvadoran, and othe illegals gangs. No more sanctuary cities.I guarantee this will drastically improve their gun violence problem.
22,000 guns laws passed by our legislators aren´t sane enough? Why not pass sane anti-murder laws?
So yet another mayor who wants his crime rate to skyrocket, does it work? Ask the guy in Chicago...
Start arming blacks with more and more guns.The faster they kill one another, the safer the streets become, especially in Chicago.Put wackos, including libnut wackos, in jail - for a long time.
So 22,100 gun laws are going to work where 22,000 do not? Grow up!
Pro 2nd amendment rally in Trenton , Feb 8th , in front of the state house.
These mayors, apparently all Democrats, will never go after the real culprits who are causing all the criminal insanity by shooting people throughout their communities because those perpetrators and their families are almost all liberal Democrat voters who the mayors rely on to keep them in political power. Its easy for the mayors to attack guns, as guns do not have a vote in those communities and the criminals who are using those illegal guns don´t obey any laws.

Please tell me your experiences...
Good as well as bad, ive heard lots of negative recently and im having the implant next week and so a bit nervous!
Please tell me your experiences...
Good as well as bad, ive heard lots of negative recently and im having the implant next week and so a bit nervous!
I had one for three years and it was fine no problems at all
Thats great to hear! Thanks!
I had mine out after six weeks but I've had issues with most things. Tried depo tried coil all out!
Everyone responds differently, give it a try, you can always have it removed
I'm on my 2nd one, first one no issues, 2nd one I have more periods, not every month but have been times where I have been on and off for 2 weeks.. Would have another one tho x
Easter Challenge = lose 7lb .. completed 26/02/2013
Hated miine! Had it out after 7months. Wanted it out sooner but they wouldn't take it out! Made me bleed constantly, sex drive was non existent, hair greasy daily, hair (legs & underarms) grew so fast! Needed to shave daily. I'm on Yasmin pill now & it's fab!
I was on yasmin for 9 years. But apparently it's not for long term use and they said I have to come off it.
I started with the implant when they first came into the country about 20 years ago & I've always had it replaced, for me it's perfect, very rarely have a period & when I do it's light & only a few days, you've no need to think about it. I've never had any problems at all & love it.
Oh that's great news !
I'm trying to think really positive about it, and remember that everyone is different. I just want it fitted now !
I've had it for about 3 months now and have had no problems at all. Had a very light period after about 3 weeks, but haven't had anything since. x
Starting weight - 11st 2
Week 1 -4.5
Week 2 -2 (Started SW)
Week 3-6 -7
Week 8-10 -5
Week 11 -3.5 (Club 10)
I had implanon, which I know is a different hormonal make up. My first was awesome, easily fitted, no periods at all, no side effects that I noticed. My problem came when I has it replaced, was a nightmare to remove, my second one must have been placed wrongly as my arm was constantly itchy and irritated. I ended up having it out but it had encapsulated and I've been left with a decent scar after 2 nurses finally managed to get it out. I'd love to try it again but don't want that experience again!!
Good luck with yours, I'm sure you'll get on with it fine

I'd like to thank my buddy Mack411 for allowing me the opportunity to log SNS's Glycophase. He was also generous enough to send me a tub of SNS Focus XT (Cotton Candy) It could not have come at a better time because I am in a transition phase. Each week I will be slowly adding carbohydrates back into my diet. I'll be making notes of the nutrient partitioning effects of Glycophase, as well as my experience with SNS Focus XT. My hope is that it will aid in bringing my current training to a whole new level. Hence the log title, "Carbed Up and Dangerous". Let's get started, shall we?!
CW: 160lbs
Heavy lower (squats/deadlifts/sumo dl)
Lower Hypertrophy (dynamic work - box jumps/single legged movements, glute work)
Upper hypertrophy (chest/shoulders/back/tri's)
HIIT/Cardio (whatever I am feeling that day - usually jump rope/tire flips)
Carb Intake: This week I am capping my carb intake ~65g. For the next few weeks I will add in ~10g carb weekly or as I see fit. I also don't see anything wrong with adding a few more carbs post heavy lower days and scaling back on off days. I'm willing to learn from others so any questions, comments, etc are welcome. Committed to moving ahead in this process and look forward to corresponding with everyone!
I started off my morning today with fasted cardio - 15 minutes of jump rope skipping followed by 30 min walk. This evening I will be working on shoulders. About to take my first 1/2 scoop of Focus XT and will report back with the results of my w/o. I've already taken 1 pill and waited about 20 minutes to eat my pre-workout meal - protein chocolate cake with protein frosting, a cup of coffee, and white chocolate PB + jelly rice cake.
Tire flips from earlier in the week
