Teal ID help
Interesting Female type Teal at Conwy RSPB. I was looking at the Teal from the Tal-y-fan hide, and noting the variation of the female type Teal when I picked out this bird below. I noticed it had buff notching on the Tertails. Decided to see if this was an ageing id feature of Teals but cant find any pictures/literatures that look similar or describe anything similar. All show an even edge to the feather. Does anyone know anything about this? Any ringers seen this before? Could just be something Ive never noticed before. Maybe a sign of a hybrid? Also looks like the bird has more white on the edges of the primaries that the other female type Teals. Stood out quite a lot.
4 comments:
Maybe TealxGarg hybrid, bill looks Garganey esque from a distance, plus eye colour looks slightly reddish. Though I will dig out the Teal/Green-winged Teal article. From what I can tell most GW Teals also show similar tertial patterns to EU Teal patterns. Though one pic I found was of a GW Teal with a similar looking pattern to this, but only because it was a broken buff pattern rather than notches. Will keep looking.
And yes AVB should be sacked, I could do a better job, my contract finishes in August so could take over then!!!

CSAR-X is dead, long live CSAR-X – only please call it Combat Rescue Helicopter, or CRH. In the latest attempt to replace its aging Sikorsky HH-60G Pave Hawk combat search-and-rescue helicopters, the U.S. Air Force has released the request for proposals for CRH, providing insight into the changes made in a bid to make the program affordable and avoid a repeat of the CSAR-X debacle.
Sikorsky HH-60G (Photo: US Air Force)
The CRH requirement is for 112 aircraft, with a not-to-exceed price for the program of $6.848 billion. Contract award is planned for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 and will cover 14 years of development, production and initial sustainment. The CSAR-X program, cancelled in 2009, was valued at up to $10 billion for 141 helicopters.
HH-47 (Concept: Boeing)
Likely contenders include the Boeing CH-47 (winner of the original CSAR-X contest in 2006), Bell Boeing V-22, Northrop Grumman/AgustaWestland AW101, and Sikorsky/Lockheed Martin UH-60M. EADS North America may also bid, possibly with the NH90 (built jointly with AgustaWestland), or potentially the Eurocopter EC725.
The drive for affordability is reflected in the planned contract structure. Engineering and manufacturing development (EMD) and low-rate initial production (LRIP) will be fixed-price incentive firm (FPIF). Full-rate production will be firm fixed price. Only "over and above" studies and analyses will be traditional cost plus fixed fee.
Under CRH, nine aircraft are to be acquired during EMD – four on FY16 for development testing and five in FY18 for operational testing. LRIP will cover two lots totaling 18 aircraft in FY19 and 20. The remaining 85 are to be acquired in firm fixed-price full-rate production from FY21-26 at around 14 aircraft a year.
CV-22 (Photo: US Air Force)
According to the RFP, the contract will incentivize bidders "to reduce costs and share the savings through the FPIF contract during EMD and LRIP". The FPIF contract provides an 11% profit margin at target cost, and mandatory 50:50 government/contractor cost sharing up to a ceiling price of 120% of the target cost. In addition, 1% of target cost has been set aside as an incentive for performing to schedule.
Bids will first have to pass through an affordability target gate before they are evaluated further. Only bids with an adjusted total evaluated price at or below $6.848 billion will get through this gate. The total evaluated price will be the bidder's total proposed price plus adjustments for fuel cost and use of government special tooling and test equipment and minus any credit evaluators give the bidder for exceeding the technical goals.
AW101 (Concept: Lockheed Martin, AgustaWestland's former team-mate!)
Up to 7% of total proposed price is available as a credit, and the technical goals give greatest weighting to hover performance. The hover requirement is a minimum of 4,000ft and a goal of 6,000ft pressure altitude on a 35°C day. Combat radius is a minimum of 195nm and goal of 225nm. Payload is a minimum of 500lb of recovery personnel and 500lb of equipment; the goal is 750lb and 750lb. Cabin space is required for a minimum of two litters, with a goal of four.
Technical compliance, technical risk and past performance will be go/no-go factors in the evaluation, and the winner will be the bid judged to have acceptable compliance, risk and past performance at the lowest total evaluated price. It's complex procedure, but reminiscent of the approach the Air Force adopted, successfully, for the restaged KC-X tanker competition.

A better way to hold nuts and saddles for easier, faster shaping. Sure, most of us already have a shop vise. And for a long time, you've probably used yours to hold nuts and saddles for filing and shaping. But you've also noticed that your vise jaws get in the way when you're trying to file the top of that nut or saddle, so you're constantly repositioning the work in the jaws.We considered the problem and designed a special vise that gives you the clearance you need for an easier and more efficient job. The custom jaws are extra tall, with steep angles for easier access to your work. The end of the vise is beveled for extra relief, too. The 2"-wide steel jaws are hardened for durability and specially undercut to stay parallel under pressure, holding the nut or saddle uniformly without slippage.For other jobs, the jaws open to 2-7/16", making it versatile for gripping all kinds of small work. This is a well-made, heavy little portable steel vise with a 2" x 5-5/8" footprint; you can clamp it to the edge of your workbench, or into your larger shop vise.The Nut and Saddle Vise is included in the Essential Nut Making Tool Kit, which has all the basic tools you'll need for shaping, string-spacing, slotting and fitting string nuts like a pro.
Handy By Allene hood from Okemos, MI Thursday, March 23, 2017 Verified Buyer Very handy little vice. Does great with so many small parts and some larger. Cut nut shaping time in half. You can really go to town on a nut or saddle. Even with an angled side it's secure.
finally got a grip By Rick from Gatineau, QC CAN Thursday, March 16, 2017 Verified Buyer recently purchased this vise well make works like a charm
Must have item By Jakob Vinten-Johansen from Grayson, GA Wednesday, January 18, 2017 Verified Buyer This is a must-have item for the shop if you make bone nuts and saddles, and do other jobs that require a small but hefty vise. I strongly recommend.
Nut and Saddle Vise By james bird from Napa, CA Sunday, November 27, 2016 Verified Buyer Perfect for nuts and saddles - it was used at the school where I trained as well. I also use it for a drill press vise.
Great value By James Harper from Brea, CA Friday, November 11, 2016 Verified Buyer This is a great little vise and is a great value.
Priceless tool! By Jeff from CA Wednesday, October 26, 2016 Verified Buyer This is one tool every luthier should have in their shop. I built my own version out of some boards and a vice clamp. The structure was not secure and made for an annoying job. It worked, but was not fun. I bought this vice out of pure frustration, and now I can sculpt tusq nuts with ease.
Perfect for the job! By R Stephen from West Linn, OR Sunday, September 11, 2016 Verified Buyer In the past I've used a small portable vise for doing detail work on nuts, saddles and other small items. It worked, but the jaws on the vise had square shoulders that made it difficult to use files at an angle. This vise is perfect for the job. I just mount it into my big shop vise and I'm ready to go. I love how securely the work piece is held in this vice. It's simply the best way to go for nuts and saddle work.
Great customer service By Lucien Chaker from Ojai, CA, USA Wednesday, August 24, 2016 Verified Buyer I bought the nut and saddle vise about 3 months ago in advance of when I'll be using it only to find that the jaws were not perfectly parallel. I thought I had passed my time of warranty but the customer service desk was extremely regretful the product did not perform and even sent me a replacement right away even before I had to ship mine back. This saved me hiccups in completing my guitars. I really appreciate their positive attitude and their concern for the customs. ChakerGuitars
Perfect Vise By Smitty from Callison, SC Wednesday, July 20, 2016 Verified Buyer Don't know how I got along without this vise. I was using another one, but was continually bothered with the fact that I had to keep the file flat or I'd hit the jaws of the vise....this is perfect!
Great vise for small detail work By Ben from Brooklyn, NY Wednesday, June 29, 2016 Verified Buyer I really like this little vise so far.I resisted buying it for quite a while, sticking with my cheapo vise from Amazon, or holding small parts in locking pliers. I was a bit worried when I unpacked it - the packaging has all the trappings of the cheap Chinese stuff - generic cardboard box, and heavy metal vise covered in oil. Don't worry - the vise itself is fine quality - we're not talking Swiss precision here, but above average construction with nice, straight jaws.The screw mechanism feels firm and there's no wobbling. The tall, thin design of the jaws holds small parts perfectly. You can work on parts from all sides, no problems with files or saws hitting the jaws. I haven't actually used it for nut making yet, but I've used it to hold stainless frets while undercutting the tang with a file, used it to trim bolts, clean up saddles, and hold a bunch of other small parts that are usually a pain in the butt.I don't think it needs mounting holes. It's heavy enough to stay in place while filing small parts, and it's the kind of tool i want to move around while working on small parts.

customer rating
Your home-from-home.
The cosy rooms give you a real home-from-home feeling. Youll have tea, coffee, kettle and a TV with freeview channels and pay-per-view movies.
The beds are very comfortable, exactly what youd expect from a Holiday Inn. You will also get to choose between firm and soft pillows - the Holiday Inn trademark.
The bathroom has a shower over the bath, and a very decent shower it is too. If you have an early flight, a good shower can make the difference between a refreshed or a groggy start. Were sure this one wont disappoint.
Everything went like a dream....Hotel was very nice....easy to find the car park...easy check in...even got the car cleaned for a very reasonable cost.
Mr Dallas (Luton Holiday Inn M1 J9)
The stay was very good and we would recommend it to freinds.The only small thing we found is there could be a little more tea,coffee and milk in the rooms.
Mr Brind (Luton Holiday Inn M1 J9)
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms were good, clean and comfortable. Bar was mega expensive.
Mr Stone (Luton Holiday Inn M1 J9)
We booked an early morning alarm call but we did not receive it. This could have been disastrous for us if we had not woken ourselves up. This is why we rated you so low. It is very important for alarm calls to be actioned otherwise flights etc can be missed
Room was ok but restaurant food we found to be overpriced for the quality. Staff were friendly although receptionist knew little about time needed to get to Airparks then airport for flight.We ffound French fries on the floor of the lift when we took our cases up. We notified the cleaner who attended to it straight away. We much prefer the Hilton Garden Inn which we will try and book when we go to Madeira next May.
Mr Moore (Luton Holiday Inn M1 J9)
Airparks were very helpful and efficient and easy to find from the hotel.
Just could not get better from day 1,stop over was great 1 mile from airport parking from there straight to airport very smooth operation.

The next Star Wars movie is slated to begin shooting in May, and while there's no official announcements yet, the latest rumor going around is that the casting has been completed. This is surprising news if it's true, although you'd figure they'd have to have a cast together pretty quickly to get started by summer.
This report tells us that "casting [is] complete barring two leads. Everyone's back." And we assume this could be in reference to the original three, Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher, returning. The current speculation is the next Star Wars movie will revolve more around the original three, and the next movies will focus on the new actors and characters.
Right after this report hit the net, Giant Freakin Robot ran a story that Gary Oldman is a big contender for a Star Wars role, and he told Sky News, "I'll believe it when I'm on the plane home. The deal isn't done. But yeah, they've inquired."
Again, mark your calendars if you haven't already, Star Wars: Episode VII will be in theaters December 18, 2015.

ANDERSON TOWNSHIP, OHIO — Melissa Harris of Anderson Township in Ohio has been indicted on four counts of unlawful sexual conduct with a minor after text messages and pictures emerged that indicated the 37-year-old mom and her 14-year-old teenage neighbor had had a sexual relationship. The boy's father found the incriminating evidence and after initial denials, the boy spilled the beans and confided that the pair had engaged in sexual intercourse at least three times including in her car and in her house. The pair also allegedly engaged in various acts of oral copulation. After authorities stepped in, Melissa Harris was ordered to report to the police department late last week, but she failed to appear until Monday morning. She now faces the possibility of spending five years in prison for each of the four counts she's been indicted on. ------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to TomoNews, where we animate the most entertaining news on the internets.

Myanmar - Thin Sandar, a chicken seller in Myanmar, had always dreamed of being a man. When she inexplicably grew a penis last month, the 21-year-old treated it as an awe-inspiring omen - as have the thousands of stunned villagers who have travelled to a pagoda to see him.
"On the morning of the full moon day of June 21, I noticed my thing (sex organ) was not the same as before," Thin Sandar, who now goes by the male name Than Sein, told AFP in an interview at his home.
"And my breasts disappeared," Than Sein added. "So I called out and showed it all to my mom and dad. It was very strange."
Strange enough that he has attracted significant attention in this deeply superstitious country, where the unexplained can quickly be exalted to hold powerful spiritual significance.
People privately concede Than Sein is a hermaphrodite. Several medical experts have examined him, and he awaits test results from the central women's hospital.
Examined by experts
But few have come forward with a medical explanation of the transformation as they await an official report by the health ministry, whose experts have also examined Than Sein.
"We can not say right now if she has really undergone a sudden gender change," said a township official who declined to be named, adding that Than Sein's birth certificate shows that he was born a girl.
"It can be confirmed when we receive the report from the health ministry, although some medical check-ups have shown her to be a true man," he added.
Hermaphrodites, also known as intersexuals, are often born with ambiguous genitalia, or have both testicular and ovarian tissue in a single person.
Medical doctor Aye Sanda Khaing put it in layman's terms in a local journal: "Her penis appeared at the site of her clitoris," the doctor was quoted as saying.
Regardless of the official findings, local villagers and other curious Myanmar nationals are flocking to the Aung Myay Thar Yar pagoda, in this new satellite township 19 kilometres from Yangon, to see Than Sein for themselves and make donations to him or the temple.
'I was so happy'
Up to 400 gather at the pagoda each day, often in a courtyard under colourful umbrellas to ward off the sun's rays, waiting for the chance to talk with and touch Than Sein.
"I have never heard of anything like this, so I came to see him," 21-year-old housewife Thandar Win said.
"If I was not married, then I too would want to become a man!"
When word spread of Than Sein's transformation, locals raced to his home to see for themselves. Authorities, sensing a possible security hazard - and, perhaps, an opportunity - hastily arranged for him to be moved to the pagoda to accommodate more visitors.
Than Sein appeared comfortable with the sudden attention in the new surroundings. Wearing a chequered longyi, the traditional Myanmar pants commonly worn by men, he sat on a rug in the pagoda's side building, flanked by his parents.
"I was so happy," father Kyaw Htay, 46, said about his son's developments. "I wanted other sons so they could offer themselves as Buddhist monks, but I had only two daughters."
Occasionally Than Sein stepped out to talk with excited visitors, who shook his hand, stroked his arm, and wished him well.
As he waits for the final test results, Than Sein said he firmly believed he had been transformed, and would enter the monkhood for a period of time and seek spiritual contemplation and guidance before deciding whether to marry and raise a family.

Extra EA-200

Extra EA-200 | |
Extra 200 | |
Role | Aerobatic Aircraft |
National origin | Germany |
Manufacturer | Extra Flugzeugbau |
Designer | Walter Extra |
First flight | 2 April 1996 |
Unit cost |
Developed from | Extra EA-300 |
The Extra 200 (Type EA-200) is a two-seat, tandem arrangement, low-wing aerobatic monoplane with conventional (taildragger) landing gear fully capable of Unlimited category competition, built by Extra Flugzeugbau.[1]
Designed by Walter Extra, it was introduced to the United States market in 1996.[2] The Extra 200 is a little smaller than the Extra 300, and is powered by a 200 hp (149 kW) rather than the Extra 300's 300 hp (224 kW) Lycoming engine making it a great choice for those on a restricted budget. It offers the flying characteristics of the EA-300, is capable of all unlimited maneuvers, and makes a great all-round training/sports aerobatic aircraft.
The Extra 200 is based on the design of the Extra 300, and the two aircraft share many similarities. The Extra 200 has a welded steel (4130) tube fuselage covered in fiberglass and fabric with a carbon/glass hybrid composite empennage (i.e., the tail assembly, including the horizontal and vertical stabilizers, elevators, and rudder), and a bubble canopy. The monocoque wings have a carbon fiber composite spar with fiberglass skins and an integral fuel tank. A symmetrical airfoil, mounted with a zero angle of incidence, provides equal performance in both upright and inverted flight. The landing gear is fixed taildragger style with composite main legs and fiberglass wheel pants. The piston-engined powerplant is a fuel-injected Lycoming AEIO-360-A1E that produces 200 horsepower (149 kW), and it is equipped with a 3-bladed constant-speed MTV-12-B-C/C 183-17e propeller made of laminated wood encased in glass-fiber reinforced plastic. The Extra 200 is stressed for ±10 G with one person on board and ±8 G with two, and has an FAA certified load factor in the US to ±10 G.
In the late 1990s, the Extra 200 was considerably less expensive, at $170,000 (1996 new), versus the Extra 300L's price of $235,000 (1996 new). In performance, at lower power settings, the aircraft handling is similar to the Decathlon while at full power it exhibits performance similar to the Pitts S-2– the Pitts has a 60 hp edge, but the Extra 200's aerodynamic and clean design makes it comparable in performance. The Extra 200 is now back in limited production (2007) after a hiatus in which Extra Aircraft focused on the development of the Extra EA-500 whose costs of development forced the company into bankruptcy. With new ownership, the company is again producing a range of aerobatic aircraft including the EA-200. The base price is $225,000 as of 2007.

2009 GMC Canyon
Compare Dealer Clearance Prices and SAVE
2009 GMC Canyon Review
The Canyon could be a contender with the new V-8 engine, but the interior quality and poor build of certain materials seriously hinder this otherwise fine vehicle.
Reviewed by Automotive on
The 2009 GMC Canyon has one problem; in the flooded truck market, Japanese truck makers such as Toyota rule the landscape. Although the GMC Canyon has made several improvements to styling and powertrain, it still lags behind the competition with somewhat tired cabin materials and design.
The 2009 GMC Canyon comes in two or four-wheel drive powertrains and is available in three different body styles: regular cabin, extended cab and a crew cab variety. The crew cab version of the vehicle has a five-foot bed, and the other two versions have a six-foot bed.
There are also three trim lines to choose from: the barebones Work Truck trim, SLE, and SLT models.
The Range
Engines: 2.9-liter four-cylinder; 3.7-liter five-cylinder; V-8 engine
Transmissions: (list all options, separated by commas)
Models: Work Truck trim, SLE, and SLT models.
What's New
The 2009 GMC Canyon is a big improvement over previous years:
- The brand new V-8 engine solves the nagging problem of underperformance that has plagued the Canyon since its introduction.
- Other new features include the Stabilitrak, a bed liner, standard XM Satellite Radio, and an upgrade braking system.
- Sport suspension was also introduced after being pulled from the Canyon a while back.
- The exterior has also received a tiny facelift.
The Canyon is your standard pick up truck. It has the styling of a work vehicle because, in the end, that is what the Canyon is. The truck is a midsize pickup with a width of 67.6-inches and a height of 65.5.The bumpers have a chrome finish, which is about as much flash as you'll get on this vehicle.
The Work Truck trim line has 16-inch steel wheels, but 17- and 18-inch wheels are available as an additional option. The regular cab SLE version adds aluminum wheels and fog lights for better visibility. The extended cab SLT has upscale chrome wheels. The crew SLT model gets a better suspension.
There are several bundled packages as well. The Z71 package is an off-road package that includes lagers wheels as well as better tires, skid plates to prevent damage to the underside of the vehicle, and a rear locking differential when the vehicle has four-wheel drive. A ZQ8 package, called the sport suspension package, has a lowered suspension, quick steering, 18-inch wheels and performance tires. The sport suspension is only available on the two-wheel drive extended and crew cab versions that also have the brand new V-8 engine introduced in 2009.
The interior is one area where the Canyon really lags behind the competition. Many of the materials are poorly built, subpar, and look like they're from a different generation of motor vehicle. There is a lot of plastic throughout. The controls are laid out in convenient places and are easy to use.
The extra seats in the extended cab vehicle are pinched to the point of being very uncomfortable. Getting in and out of the back seats is also a pain. However, the cargo area is spacious and versatile.
The Work Truck trim line has a bed liner to prevent scratches, a 60/40-split front seat, air conditioning, cruise control, and standard satellite radio. The regular cab SLE version adds chrome interior accents and a CD player. The extended cab version receives a lot of extra power accessories as well as a keyless entry system. A Value crew cab model is also available that gets all of the accessories as the extended cab version but does away with the chromed accents. The extended cab SLT has leather trimmed interior and seats, and the seats are heated to boot.
Extra options for the vehicle include remote keyless entry, fog lamps for those vehicles without them, auto-dimming rearview mirror, running boards, power sunroof, heated and adjustable seats, leather trim as an add-on, and an upgraded CD player.
Performance & Handling
The Canyon offers a 2.9-liter four-cylinder that produces 185 horsepower with 190 pound-feet of torque. A 3.7-liter five-cylinder is also available that produces 242 horsepower with 242 pound-feet of torque. A new V-8 engine is available as well that produces 300 horsepower with 320 pound-feet of torque.
On the road, the Canyon is a smooth and quiet ride in the city. Wind noise from the doors can be a problem when riding along the highway at speed, so be aware. The four and five-cylinder engines are a bit weak. The V-8 engine gives the necessary power you'd expect from a truck. It is the only one that comes close to the competition.
SafetyThe GMC Canyon received top marks from government crash tests for front impact, and four out of five stars for side impact.

EPA Fuel Economy
You'll Like
- The GMC Canyon is cheap and cheerful.
- Even with the value, the Canyon has great handling, a wide variety of options, and a good selection of engine types.
You Won't Like
- Two of the engines–the four and five-cylinder–seriously underperform.
- The interior of the vehicle feels cheap, tired and cramped.
Sum Up
The Canyon could be a contender with the new V-8 engine, but the interior quality and poor build of certain materials seriously hinder this otherwise fine vehicle.

Species Reactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat, Hamster, Monkey, DogSource / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues near the amino terminus of human α-parvin. Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography.
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex structure of secreted macromolecules surrounding mammalian organs and tissues. Controlled interactions between cells and the ECM are important in proliferation, migration, survival, polarity, and differentiation. Cells contact the ECM primarily through heterodimeric integral membrane proteins called integrins. Integrins connect the ECM to the cytoskeleton, and therefore the cell signaling machinery, through protein complexes called focal adhesions (1).
The ILK/PINCH/Parvin (IPP) complex is composed of three highly conserved proteins recruited to sites of ECM contact as pre-assembled structures. The IPP acts at the interface of the integrin/actin connection to regulate formation of focal adhesions and integrin signaling. All three proteins contain multiple protein binding domains allowing them to function as adaptor proteins in the formation of focal adhesions. ILK (integrin-linked kinase) also has a catalytic (protein Ser/Thr kinase) domain, and may or may not function as a kinase in vivo. Roles for IPP proteins outside of the IPP complex have been proposed, including regulation of gene expression (2,3).
The parvin family consists of 3 members, α-parvin/actopaxin, β-parvin/affixin, and γ-parvin. α-parvin and β-parvin are expressed ubiquitously, while expression of γ-parvin is restricted to hematopoietic cells (4). α-parvin binds to f-actin both directly and via interaction with the focal adhesion protein paxillin (5). α-parvin regulates cell spreading and motility through interactions with the cofilin kinase TESK1 (6), and with the GTPase activating protein CdGAP (7). Phosphorylation of α-parvin during mitosis may have a role in the regulation of actin dynamics during the cell cycle (8).

On Monday, the Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF (NYSEArca: GDX) and the Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF (NYSEArca: GDXJ) lost 2.3% and 1.9%, respectively. With those losses, GDX and GDXJ are now trading well below their pre-no tapering announcement levels and with the loss of Federal Reserve momentum, the focus on mining ETFs returns to price.
As in the price of gold futures and at what point do the companies that are found in ETFs like GDX start to feel pain because of falling bullion prices. Gold is once again flirting dangerously close with the $1,300 an ounce level, an area at which questions previously arose regarding the ability of even some of the largest miners to profitably extract gold from the earth. [Gold's Bounce Inches Some Miners Back to Profitability]
On Monday, Citigroup raised its price target on gold to $1,248 per ounce from $1,143, but that revision is still below where bullion currently resides. It is also price where some miners may not profitably be able to pull gold from the ground. Citi also raised its price target on Barrick Gold (NYSE: ABX) to $22 from $20, its target on Goldcorp (NYSE: GG) to $29 from $28 and its target on Kinross Gold (NYSE: KGC) to $5.90 from $5.80, Barron's reported.
Goldcorp and Barrick combine for almost 26% of GDX's weight. Last week, Credit Suisse had this to say about Eldorado Gold (NYSE: EGO), which carries a 4.6% weight in GDX:
"EGO is well set up to weather a lower gold price environment with lower than peer average all-in sustaining costs at $950/oz in 2013; a strong balance sheet with $744M in cash, a $375M undrawn credit facility and $600M in LT debt due in 2020; and strong operations with 2013 guidance tightened to 745koz at $520/oz cash op. costs, the middle upper end of original production guidance. In H1/13, EGO produced 47% of production guidance at $492/oz cash op. costs, according to a note posted by Barron's.
Not all outlooks for gold miners in the event of further gold price declines are positive. Last month, Cowen & Co. said Kinross and Agnico-Eagle (NYSE: AEM) would suffer low or negative profitability even with a $100-$200 gold-price decline. Those stocks combine for nearly 9% of GDX's weight. However, Cowen also noted Goldcorp and Yamana Gold (NYSE: AUY) would still be to generate positive earnings amid significant gold price retrenchment. Yamana's all-in-cash costs are below $860 an ounce, indicating the company could still be profitable if gold trades only slightly above $900. [30% Plunge Could Mean Disaster for Gold Mining ETFs]

Pet Food Match
How do you know if your cat is overweight? What are the health risks of obesity for pets? And if your cat is overweight, what can you do about it? We have answers and tips to help you learn about feline obesity.
The most common cause of weight gain is overeating. And overeating is typically due to overfeeding. So while they might look up at you with those sweet, adoring eyes, constantly giving them treats and rewarding them with table food can add up to extra pounds.
When you look at your adult cat, you should be able to see their waistline. They should have a slight tuck at the waist, and you should be able to feel their ribs and back bone when petting them. If you can't, consult your veterinarian to see if your kitty might need to switch to a weight loss or weight management diet.
Overweight cats can develop serious health problems. Here are a few that you can help reduce the risk of simply by making sure your cat is at an optimal weight.
First, cut down gradually on bad habits, such as filling your cat's bowl to the top. Instead, follow the feeding guides on the package of a natural adult cat food. These guidelines are targeted to keep your cat's body in ideal condition. Measure out the recommended amount for the day and feed in several small meals. Cats naturally eat frequent, small meals, but it's good to ration food so they don't eat all of their small meals at once. Research has shown that wet food can be beneficial for weight management in cats. A higher moisture content was shown to decrease food intake, increase activity and decrease weight gain when the same amount of calories was eaten. If you are doing mixed feeding, at least 25% of the calories (or about 1/3 of the volume) should come from wet food.
Another way to help manage your cat's weight with food is by choosing the best formula. There are many ways pet parents can help their cats get to healthy weights. The first step is to feed a formula that matches your cat's lifestyle. Indoor cats should be fed a cat food tailored specifically to them, such as NUTRO™ Indoor Formulas . They have a caloric content and feeding guidelines tailored to maintaining a healthy body weight with indoor cats. For cats that are already overweight, a weight loss food, such as NUTRO™ WEIGHT LOSS Adult Cat Chicken & Whole Brown Rice Formula , can help your cat achieve a healthy weight. Work with your vet to determine a weight loss plan for your cat, and follow the feeding guides on your cat food packages for weight reduction until the desired weight is met. When your cat has reached the ideal weight, feed the appropriate formula and amount for optimal weight management.
In addition to healthy feeding habits, there are plenty of activities you can do to help your cat shed a few pounds. Get your adult cat moving with toys or other activities. You might find yourself burning some calories, too. Use food puzzles to make your kitty work for their food. They're the perfect way to turn eating time into playtime. You also can simulate outdoor play by getting your cat to "hunt" toys that look like rodents or birds.

If you ever needed proof of the capricious nature of politics (I'm sure you don't, but allow me the gambit) take a look at the amusing exchange that took place recently between Hong Kong's Secretary for Home Affairs Tsang Tak-sing and the de facto opposition leader Anson Chan. Tsang accused Chan of being a "sudden democrat" who "suddenly cares about people's livelihoods," while Chan, who heads the "pan-democrat" caucus in the legislature, professed herself "flabbergasted" by what she described as a personal attack. The local press played it big, and the chattering classes spluttered over their green tea frappucinos as if it were the first time a government official had been ungracious.
It could have been worse, of course. Elsewhere in China, opposition figures aren't simply hectored by officials—they're sent to gulags. And besides, Tsang is partly right. Chan is, at least outwardly, a sudden democrat. There's nothing wrong with that—better a sudden democrat than no democrat—but it is correct that as the former Chief Secretary of the British colonial government, Chan administered a deeply undemocratic apparatus. It was, in fact, the same apparatus that imprisoned Tsang Tak-sing for two years when he was still a teenager (although Chan was not party to that decision). His crime—distributing leaflets criticizing the education system—was inconsequential, but his timing, coming during the leftist-inspired unrest that shook Hong Kong in 1967, was most ill advised. Now, however, their roles are mysteriously reversed: Chan is the freedom fighter, Tsang the conservative bureaucrat. You can see why Tsang is feeling tetchy.
Some commentators have come to his defense. To them, his student activism and jail time, brief thought that was, give him an aura of anti-colonial credibility. Chan worked for whitey, the argument goes, whereas Tsang fought them. Bravo. But it must also be pointed out that where Chan is a sudden democrat, Tsang is a hardline supporter of the vehemently anti-democratic Communist Party. Before being appointed to the post-handover government, Tsang edited Ta Kung Pao—a local newspaper that was no more than Beijing's mouthpiece. He also served as a deputy in the National People's Congress—the pseudo-legislature that gives robotic approval to the party's policies. He's going to get nowhere attacking Chan's democratic credentials, in other words, and she won't do the democratic cause any good by getting all "flabbergasted" at the first sign of official truculence.

High blood pressure and a bad night's sleep
Most adults in the United Kingdom who are diagnosed with high blood pressure have essential hypertension, or high blood pressure of an unknown cause. If you have a sleep-related breathing disorder such as obstructive sleep apnea or habitual snoring, then you also have a greater risk for essential hypertension. Over 75 percent of people with obstructive sleep apnea are undiagnosed. If you feel that you struggle with these issues, seek attention from an internal medicine or your family GP.
Inadequate sleep has been linked to an increased likelihood of obesity as early as childhood. The average Brit sleeps less than seven hours each night. Your sleep needs alter as you age. Teenagers need at least nine hours of sleep while eight hours per night suffices for most adults.
You won't lose weight by maintaining proper sleep habits, but sleep deprivation can increase stress hormones that may cause overeating, which could lead to weight gain. Lack of sleep increases a hormone called ghrelin, which is known to stimulate appetite. Sleep deprivation also decreases your leptin levels, a hormone that makes you feel full.
Some studies indicate that sleep duration that is either too short, under 6 hours, or too long, over 9 hours, may be linked with elevated cholesterol levels. To attain better control over your cholesterol level, concentrate on your sleep habits as well as your dietary habits, physical activity and your family history of elevated cholesterol.

Hi Dwayne, Jim (Bugman) Corrigan here. Sorry about the slow response - I was busy and I needed to look at the book again to refresh my memory.
I read this title quite a while ago, and fairly early on in what has become an obsession to read most of the Atlantic salmon literature that I can get my hands on. I didn't have any remarkable memories of this book, which may say something in itself. The Meadow Run Press edition (I think it is the only one) is very sumptuous. The book comes in a snazzy box and everything about the look and feel of the package is first rate. There are some very nice photos in the centre of the book - the author is a professional photographer. The story?? From my point of view, it's a little too heavy on Saabs (and bars, travel and other non-fishing stuff) and a little too light on salmon fishing. Of course, this is a matter of taste. It is a lyrical travelogue about fishing and living in Scandanavia over the course of a multi-week trip. It reads a bit like James Prosek's books, but I don't remember being swept away by the stories in 'Salmon, Saabs etc.' to the degree that Prosek got me. I'd think that a collector would want to own/read it, but I wouldn't be trading my shelf space for titles by Dana Lamb, Shirley Woods (or a number of others) to get it. To be fair, I might like it more on a re-read, but I've got a mild eternity of unread salmon books still ahead of me. Give it a go and tell me what you think. Jim |
Very cool response Jim and thank you!! Spoken ike a true salmon man! I can sooo relate to the "need" to acquire and read as much salmon literature as one can. Hope you are wintering well and thanks again for a very nice response.
Best regards Dwayne aka Salmon Chaser

Isaiah Thomas on Kobe Bryant: 'He looked like the old Kobe' |
04.04.16 at 2:13 am ET |
Isaiah Thomas was paying very close attention to Kobe Bryant on Sunday night at Staples Center.
The Celtics point guard was watching how the 37-year-old handled his business for a 16-win team that was headed nowhere against a young team trying to clinch a playoff spot.
What he saw was an intense competitor who wanted the ball so desperately down the stretch that he screamed at teammate D'Angelo Russell when Bryant was open for a three. As it turned out, Julius Randle got the ball from Russell and converted a three-point play.
When he did get the ball, Bryant reminded everyone what he could still do, starting with his first shot of the night over Jae Crowder in the first quarter. Bryant had 11 points in the opening 12 minutes.
Bryant had 18 points in the first half as the Lakers stayed close, 57-48, at the half.
Bryant would finish with a game-high 34 points on 11-of-28 shots from the field. The Celtics won the game, 107-100, and a spot in the playoffs.
"He looked like the old Kobe," Thomas said. "From the jump, from the first play, he just had a different energy about him. You knew it was probably going to be a long night if he felt good."
Isaiah Thomas on clinching a playoff spot: 'We definitely want more' |
04.04.16 at 1:47 am ET |
Brad Stevens was fond of reminding everyone for the last two months that his team was closer to being out of the playoffs than it was to the top of the Eastern Conference.
Well, he doesn't have to worry about missing the playoffs anymore.
And the biggest reason for the Celtics making their second straight playoff appearance this year under Stevens is Isaiah Thomas. The point guard scored 21 of his 26 points in the first half Sunday night in a 107-100 playoff clinching win over Kobe Bryant and the Lakers at Staples Center.
"It means a lot," Thomas told reporters afterward. "It means a stepping stone. It was definitely goal of ours to make it to the playoffs but we definitely want more. It's a positive. We're happy."
Last year, the Celtics made the playoffs with a 40-42 record and even finished seventh in the East. But they were swept out in four games by the Cavaliers. Now, the Celtics (45-32) are shooting for much more than just making the playoffs. With Sunday's win, they are tied with the Hawks for third in the East and could wind up with home court advantage if they perform in the final five games, four of which will be on their home court.
"That's what you want. You want to, obviously, give yourself a chance," Stevens said. "So, the only way you get a chance is to make the playoffs. It's been a very focused group. I haven't heard the guys talk about it a ton. Obviously, when asked about it, they may comment on it. But they've been pretty focused on just the task at hand. We still want to be playing our best going into it.

04.04.16 at 12:50 am ET |
When Kobe Bryant's three with 19.9 seconds rimmed in and out, the battle under the boards turned into an ugly affair for Evan Turner and the Celtics.
Turner got entangled with Lakers big man Julius Randle, who appeared to accidentally poke Turner in the left eye with his right hand.
Turner immediately grabbed the left side of his face and made his way off the court and to the locker room.
"He's got bleeding in his eye," coach Brad Stevens told reporters afterward. "They're looking at it. An internist is looking at him. We don't know the extent of the injury. But clearly he got some eye poke [action]. Hopefully, not too much trauma."
According to multiple reports, Turner emerged from the showers with his left eye shut and redness around the eye.
If Turner is out for any period of time, it could be costly to the Celtics. After Jae Crowder, Turner is arguably the most versatile player on the team. Turner filled in for Avery Bradley Sunday night in the starting lineup. Bradley was not with the team due to personal reasons. Before Sunday, Turner started the last seven games that Crowder missed with his high sprain of his right ankle.

Studs and Duds: Isaiah Thomas, Celtics wave Kobe Bryant goodbye, clinch playoff spot |
04.03.16 at 11:59 pm ET |
Beating Kobe Bryant and the Lakers and clinching a playoff spot proved to be a little more than mere formality for the Celtics on Sunday night.
Isaiah Thomas scored 21 of his 26 points in the first half and Jae Crowder added 22 as the Celtics turned back the 16-win Lakers, 107-100, at Staples Center. In his final game ever against Boston, Bryant went out on a strong note. He scored 18 of his 34 points in the first half to keep the Lakers close.
As for Thomas, who played in front of his friend and boxing champ Floyd Mayweather, he matched Paul Pierce's 2005-06 mark of 16 straight games with at least 20 points.
The Celtics improve to 45-32 and are tied with the Hawks for third in the East.
Bryant, who finished 11-of-28 from the field, came out clearly with a point to prove in his final game ever against the Celtics. He made his first shot, a 12-foot left wing jumper over Crowder just 64 seconds into the game. He made just two of his six first-quarter shots from the floor but converted all six attempts at the line for 11 points.
The Celtics, thanks in large part to red-hot shooting to start the game, built an early lead of nine points twice, including 29-20. The Celtics hit seven of their first 10 shots before cooling off to 59 percent by the end of the first quarter. Thomas and Amir Johnson each had eight points in the opening quarter as Boston led 31-26. After a layup by the Lakers just 12 seconds into the second quarter, a disgusted Brad Stevens called a timeout to regroup his troops.
Avery Bradley (personal) not with team, Jae Crowder returns to starting lineup vs. Lakers |
04.03.16 at 9:18 pm ET |
The Celtics will have to avoid a massive letdown without the services of Avery Bradley.
Coach Brad Stevens confirmed before the game in Los Angeles that the best defensive player in the starting lineup will not be with the team due to personal reasons.
Taking Bradley's place in the starting lineup will be Evan Turner, getting a start for the eighth time in nine games. This start, however, will be at a different position than the previous seven, where he started for Jae Crowder.
"Evan has started the better part of the last couple of weeks because Jae has only been here for one game, so I think that keeps him in that role and in that rhythm and then we'll figure it out from there," Brad Stevens told reporters before Sunday's game.
Crowder will be returning to the starting lineup after missing Friday's game against the Warriors in Oakland.
Stevens also explained why Turner has been such a versatile player over the course of the last three weeks.
"The 2s and 3s do the exact same things for us, so it doesn't have any impact as far as knowing what's coming or understanding the plays or whatever the case may be," Stevens added. "It's a pretty seamless transition, because he's going to guard all three spots, which he usually does."
Turner has averaged 14.9 points, 6.1 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game in his last seven starts. He scored 21 points in Friday's shocker in Oakland, grabbed five rebounds, and had five assists. He scored 10 points during the final quarter, including a couple of key clutch jumpers.
There will be others expected to step up their game, also.
"Terry (Rozier) has played a lot more than he had earlier in the season and he and Marcus (Smart) have given us good things together especially with the ability to make physical plays, defend, rebound, those type of things that we need our guards to do to be the best team that we can be," said Stevens. "It's one of those things where we haven't been a great rebounding team, so playing those guys together helps shore that up a little bit."
Isaiah Thomas changes shoes at half, sparks 'one of funnest games' in his career |
04.02.16 at 3:12 am ET |
When things weren"t going well Friday night in Oakland, Isaiah Thomas didn't look at his hands. He looked at his feet.
After going 0-for-7 from the floor with five assists in the first half, Thomas decided to not take things into his own hands, he decided to change his shoes.
"I switched my shoes," Thomas told ESPN's J.A. Adande on the court after the Celtics stunned the NBA world with a 109-106 win over the 68-win Warriors at Oracle Arena. "Them other shoes didn't have any buckets in them. I always know the All-Star Kobes will give me some type of buckets."
Of course, the irony there is that Thomas and the Celtics finish the road trip Sunday night in Los Angeles against Kobe Bryant and the Lakers.
With a new pair of shoes on his feet, he went out and torched the Warriors for 18 points in the third quarter and finished with a team-leading 22 points, giving him 15 straight games with at least 20 points, one shy of Paul Pierce's mark in 2005-06 and extending his franchise record to 15 games as the team's leading scorer.
"This says a lot about this team," Thomas told reporters after the game. "Hopefully, it gives us some confidence to end the season off the right way and play at a high level."
The Celtics took the best shot from the Warriors down the stretch, leading by 10 points with six minutes left only to see the Warriors make a predictable run in the final two minutes.
"That was one of the funnest games I've been a part of just because every time they hit us with something, we hit them right back," Thomas said. "Usually, teams don't do that. That's when they usually go on their run.
"For me, personally, I stayed aggressive, stayed the course. My teammates kept confidence in me and wanted me to be in attack mode. And then things started to open up. Different guys, every guy down the line, made a key play in this win."
Perhaps most satisfying is how Thomas and the Celtics put Thursday's 116-109 loss in Portland behind them.
"Man, it was tough [Thursday] night. We gave ourselves a chance to win," Thomas said of the loss against Portland. "We felt like we should've won. We end up losing. And then knowing that we had to play the defending champs, it wasn't getting any easier. It says a lot about this team and knowing that we can turn the page as quick as needed."
Is Brad Stevens now the front-runner in NBA coach of the year race? |
04.02.16 at 2:31 am ET |
It might be time to call Brad Stevens the front-runner in the race for NBA coach of the year.
After all, his team, missing its most versatile defender on the court, was able to pull off something no other team in the NBA had been able to do since Jan. 27, 2015.
In beating the Golden State Warriors Friday night, 109-106, without Jae Crowder, the Celtics ended Golden State's regular season home win streak at 54 games and gave Stevens the signature win to date of his three-year tenure in Boston. The Celtics became the first team since San Antonio on Nov. 11, 2014 to beat the Warriors in regulation in a regular season game in Oakland.
The Celtics, who improved to 44-32, withstood charge after charge down the stretch from the record-hungry Warriors, who fell to 68-8 on the season. They withstood Steph Curry going off for 21 of his 29 points in the third quarter. Stevens got Thomas involved in the offense early in the third quarter, as Thomas scored his first 18 points of the game in the period. Stevens diagramed play after play, including the game-clincher, an side inbounds from Marcus Smart to Thomas for a layup with 8.3 seconds left in the game.
"It was a heck of a game," Stevens told reporters after the game. "When Curry got going in the third quarter, the biggest moments of the game were us scoring consecutively when he scored because when he got going, that's usually when they run away with a 10-0 run or a 12-0 run. We had to play. Guys had to play really well. We didn't have a guy play poorly. That's what it takes to beat a team like this. They're outstanding."
Perhaps most impressive was the fact that Stevens had his team ready just 24 hours after a 116-109 grueling loss in Portland.
"I think the biggest meaning is the idea that we can bounce back from a night like [Thursday] night where we expended a considerable amount of energy and came up short, flew here, got in late and came to compete again," Stevens said. "I thought that probably the other biggest moment of the game was when we were struggling to score in the second quarter, they weren't scoring a ton and kind of kept us in the game. We were fortunate to win but at the same time, we made a lot of plays to win the game."

Brandon Morgan and his boyfriend Dalan Wells. The photo was posted on the Facebook page Gay Marines over the weekend, and it's already racked up over 35,000 likes. Said one commenter, "As a gay veteran, this makes me tear up with joy. I never thought I would see the day." Another: "As my partner & I approach our 20th anniversary, I am moved to know our country is moving forward. Beautiful on so many levels!"Unfortunately, not everyone was supportive. Said one hater,AdvertisementI don't have anything against homosexuality but some PDA is going too far. I mean...a hug. okay normal. a kiss on the cheek. sure why not. but for 2 men to make out in front of others...that's just trying to get under people's skin. that's my opinion. this just isn't normal to many people even if we are understanding. Rubbing it in our faces won't make is grow found of it, it'll only alienate peopleOf course, "rubbing it in our faces" is what homophobes tend to call any normal expression of affection they'd overlook if the parties were straight. For an illustration of that principle, take this comment: "This photo is as classic as the one taken of the couple in Times Square at the end of WWII." There's nothing in the photo of Morgan and his man that we didn't see back in 1945 (the Mirror has the famous photo of a returning sailor kissing a nurse, if you'd like to compare). And maybe if we're lucky, this photo will also become iconic, a reminder that we finally let the people who are willing to die for our safety kiss whoever they want.Gay marine's homecoming kiss goes viral after Facebook success [Mirror] Gay Marines [Facebook]Reply169 repliesLeave a reply

God ! What I think about Religion?
Miscellaneous by: USGlen
God is himself
Glen Mayberry
I have lost the believe that I should be and remain Catholic. One of the reasons is that the Church is a money making machine. They have to have 25% of our weekly income for the Church. Throughout the year they have to have appeals for the Pastoral funds, Bishops Conference, and funds to maintain the Church Plant. My feelings on this particular matter are that the priests are more exhibitionist of their own Priestly Duty and the what they did acknowledge after taking the Sacrament of Holy Orders.
My reasons or shall we say my exact reasons for leaving the Catholic Church behind are for my health both Mental and Physical. Also according to the law when Parents die they in their last wishes tell each family member what to do in their wishes. I want them to be happy in their heavenly state in God's Almighty Kingdom. The Church doesn't ralize that it is bad health habits for 50 people to sip wine from same receptacle with out scrubbing it with water. The priests talk about their personal exploits of theirs such as a card gasme with high stakes until 2 in the morning.
I am a man that has found out that if he reads and reflects about his thoughts on his personal issues, he will become united with his Nation and his true self will emerge from this such reflections. This self type is contrary to Catholic Dogma and Doctrine. God never has spoken to any man on this earth that was truthfully written and chronicled by the church.
We know very little about Christ. We have know actual facial description or physical descrition of the man or if he was a man.
The believers in the awareness of the Churches teachings about Our Lord and the other Doxctrines etc of the truth are just habituous people. These peole don't speak of Christ. Some of these peole ask if a person believes that Christ is their personal Savior. These peole have their thoughts and own misconceptions of Christ or God because of what I have stated.
They also b elieve that god or Jesus is their spiritual idolatrous. This person is Christ a person with Supernatural Powers and desires to be someone that is worshipped not only by his acolytes the priests and also by every man and women along with their Siblings. Some people who start this thing along this prescribed teachings and are forced to bring them up according to the teachings of the Church. This form of living for a child according to a mysterious mystic makes the youngsters usually sick. When they get that way the Church says nothing about the young childs faith but when the child gets sick it is usually the beliefs of the parents brought about by the Church who is thought to be the legal entity of the Child's growth and guidance until the day of the childs death.

The Divine Lorraine and development on North Broad
November 6, 2012
Hour 1
The Divine Lorraine Hotel stands at 699 North Broad Street. The 10-story Philadelphia landmark was built in 1892 as a luxury apartment building, one of the city's first skyscrapers. Later it became a hotel, the first to be racially integrated in the city. But today the Divine Lorraine is a shadow of its former self. After standing empty for years, the Divine Lorraine is riddled with graffiti, broken windows and structural decay. Recently, developer ERIC BLUMENFELD has bought the building and has big plans for it and the Metropolitan Opera House, another grand, flagship Broad Street building, which he also purchased. This hour, a conversation about the Divine Lorraine and development along the North Broad corridor. Our guests are BLUMENFELD, President of EB Realty Management Corporation, JOHN GALLERY, Executive Director of the Preservation Alliance of Greater Philadelphia, and PENELOPE GILES, Founder and Executive Director of Francisville Neighborhood Development Corp.

Airclad fiber laser technology
Publication: Research - peer-review › Journal article – Annual report year: 2011
High-power fiber lasers and amplifiers have gained tremendous momentum in the last 5 years. Many of the traditional manufacturers of gas and solid-state lasers are now pursuing the fiber-based systems, which are displacing the conventional technology in many areas. High-power fiber laser systems require reliable fibers with large cores, stable mode quality, and good power handling capabilities-requirements that are all met by the airclad fiber technology. In the present paper we go through many of the building blocks needed to build high-power systems and we show an example of a complete airclad laser system. We present the latest advancements within airclad fiber technology including a new 100 m single-mode polarization-maintaining rod-type fiber capable of amplifying to megawatt power levels. Furthermore, we describe the novel airclad-based pump combiners and their use in a completely monolithic 350 W cw fiber laser system with an M2 of less than 1.1. © 2011 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers (SPIE).

Mike Ribeiro was only a rental for the Washington Capitals, acquired to fill a void as the temporary second line center. After his half season with team, he bolted for big money in Phoenix. Many Caps fans, though, still have a soft spot for Ribs and his swag. So, what does Ribeiro think of us? Well, here's what he said the Coyotes press corps (two people) ahead of Saturday's game. (more…)
Photo credit: Joel Auerbach
Thursday night, the Washington Capitals moved into a playoff spot for the first time all year, taking over first place in the Southeast Division. Tonight, the Caps fought to defend their position against Miami's other other other other team, the Florida Panthers. And they did.
OVI SCOAR, RIBEIRO SCOAR, OVI SCOAR, OVI SCOAR (ruined by Hendricks penalty), OVI SCOAR, HATS, Florida goals we don't care about. Caps beat Cats 4-3.
Heading into their game against Ottawa on Tuesday, the Capitals had won only once in their first five games. But after getting their first win of the year against Buffalo Sunday, the boys were loose and confident after their morning skate. For example, watch as Mike Vogel interviews Mike Ribeiro and Alex Ovechkin crashes the interview.
Neuvy run over during the second period. (Photo credit: Mel Evans)
[Editor's Note: Peter Hassett wisely took the opportunity to leave DC this week. Ian Oland is in protective custody. Chris Gordon has joined the circus on the trapeze. The PuckBuddys are entirely responsible for this week's tragic events.]
"Nothing ever really goes away – it just changes into something else." – Sarah Ockler.
There's a last bit to that quote that we'll share at the end. (Spoiler!) Still, we can't help but watch the Capitals 2013 and wonder: what are they changing into? And where is this metamorphosis leading? Answers – now.
First period: Some early testing by the Caps heartens us. We like what we're seeing on defense from Ward; once again, the Caps look dominant in the first. Can't hear the name "Travis Zajac" without thinking about buying a vowel. Yes, that's what we're down to. Sadly, Jacob Josefson to Stephen Gionta (brother of Habs' Brian) with a snapper past Neuvy puts them 1-up.
Second begins with a dash to the Caps net, gobbled up by Neuvy. Mike Ribeiro and Jason Chimera denied what shoudda coudda been. Troy Brouwer passes to no one, which is somehow emblematic of the team this year. Phew! on a Neuvy save during a Devs attempt at a shortie, leading to both teams feeling a little better about themselves, while Martin Brodeur notches another lump on his coconut. Phew! again as Neuvy (again) saves the Caps on a Devils PP. Tonight is a good night for Neuvirth, so heck, let's give him a 5-on-3 because why not? Of course, Patrik Elias scores (nothing you can do, Neuvy) bringing Devs up 2-o. Please let this end.
Last period starts with us wondering if the mullets (*ahem Carlson*) are slowing the Caps down. Adam Oates looks sour like the Dad in "That' 70's Show," which we're coming to understand. Caps PP yields zip, and we get another shot. MoJo sends it off to nowhere, and Phew! (3x) Neuvy saves the day. Finally, Ward knocks to Ribeiro and the Caps are on the board, 2-1. And then HURRAH! Greenie sends a sizzler into the net, Caps tied 2-2 with less than three minutes remaining. An almost heart-stopper brings us to:
OT: Pushups everyone! Hero becomes the goat as Greenie gets sent to the penalty box and Caps go on PK. Neuvy is on his best game tonight: how many times can we "Phew!"? Caps kill effectively kill the penalty, while Ovechkin is sleep-skating. Twenty seconds to go and Ilya Kovalchuk takes advantage of Ovi's slop, firing it past Neuvy and ending the game.
SCORE: Devils 3, Capitals 2.

Me neither.
Since the Caps last played hockey– sometime during the Medieval Warm Period, they've lost a few guys. Alex Semin left via free agency for Carolina, Mike Knuble returned to the exotic beauty of Michigan, Tomas Vokoun made a pit stop in Breezewood before heading up to Pittsburgh, and Dennis Wideman got such a ludicrous and undeserved payday in Calgary that you'd think he had left congress to start lobbying for the MPAA.
You're gonna see some new faces on Saturday night, so here's a quick refresher on the additions the Capitals made just before the lockout sucked the last ounce of joy out of the universe.

Lot 731: APPONTEMENTS DE PAUILLAC (2 types)
Auction No.57 of Antique Stocks & Bonds

October 29, 2016
Brussels, Belgium
Live AuctionDescription: 1891, 1893 33 GIRONDE. PARIS. 1. 3% Obligation de F500, 1893, yellow & black. 2. Action de F500, 1891, blue & black. Both pieces have the same fine design by the famous CATENACCHI, with a typical very complex border of shipping scenes, flags, classical figures, etc. Pauillac is a port near Bordeaux. Company formed to build quays and warehouses at Pauillac, near Bordeaux, and a railway linking the port to the Chemin de Fer du Médoc. The concession allowed for the State to buy the property after 10 years from completion of the work; this was done in 1914, for an annuity of F310.000, payable until 1964. The company built a dock 375 metres long, served by 3250 m. of railway line. The port was quickly put to good use; 198 ships tied up there during 1901. At the same time, to encourage passenger traffic, special trains were run direct to and from Paris. Among the merchandise handled was ore from Spain, destined for the blast-furnaces of Pauillac, and posts to support the roof of English coal-mines. In addition, from 1917 to1920, the port was used to move U.S. troops in and out of France. Sadly, all the port installations were destroyed during WW2.
