What is Meniere's Disease?
Meniere's disease is a condition of the inner ear that causes hearing and balance problems. People with this condition may experience episodes of vertigo (dizziness or a spinning sensation), tinnitus (loud ring or roaring sound in the ears), feeling of pressure in the ears and temporary or permanent hearing loss. Symptoms do not occur all the time and Meniere's disease usually only affects one ear. This condition occurs gradually, with the person either experiencing sudden attacks of vertigo or loss of hearing. It affects both men and women and tends to develop between the ages of 40 and 60 years.
Symptoms may be a combination of vertigo, tinnitus or hearing loss. Common symptoms and signs that are present in Meniere's disease include:

Spyderco Para-Military2 Black S30v - these have been sold out everywhere, or cost >$200. Stumbled upon a used one off kijiji for $80 CAD from the original owner =D It was somewhat dull from use, so I tried out my nascent sharpening skills. I tried thinning behind the edge to bring the angle down because the steel can handle it, but it's clear I still need more practice (on cheaper knives).
Spyderco Dragonfly2 ZDP-189 - picked this up for my wife because it has a non-threatening size, easily pocketable/pursed, and zips through anything the blade touches. No more opening packages with random steak knives!
Mine is back in West Virginia (I forgot it at my parents' house when I was visiting), but it is this one: http://www.edcknives.com/products/An...-Ironwood.html
anyone got any suggestions on a budget edc for a chef to carry for opening/breaking down boxes, bags of flour, and other random things? budget is around $50
thanks china i will look at that, and you ever going to give up that salsa recipe? and because of you i have some trinidad scorpions growing now.

Case XX 1965 model 5332. * Seen better days, but was my grandfathers, and was a handle down when I was 12. * Have carried it litterly every day since, even to school, lol. The middle blade gets the sharpest of any knife I own, or have owned, as well as my easiest to sharpen. Not sure why, just something about it. It's a shame the tip broke when I was a youngster playing with it, even before my grandfather gave it to me.

local poor in accessing essential financial services to improve their lives. Typically, small and marginal farmers, unable to access financial loans to grow their businesses, have been forced to purchase loans from local agents at
outrageously high interest rates. Though formal lending institutions are available, they are not traditionally geared towards small-scale entrepreneurs. This predicament inspired Dhattateya Hosagrahar to establish the Institute of

In the mens thread, this has become popular. Now it's your turn to show off your collection.
I've always had one on my public profile. Take a look-see. I call it my Perfume Shrine, and it resides in my drawer, all nice and dark and scentful.
Been checking out the men's thread too and just waiting to borrow work's digital camera so I can post one of my modest collection! I think this is fun

Well, I see this thread never caught on, but I'll add to it, here's the box where I keep everything:
Here's the newest addition to my collection:
And here are most of them, out of the box just for a picture:
I keep my perfumes in an old wooden hutch that my great, great grandfather made for his bride as a wedding present. He was not a professional furniture maker, but inspired by love, he turned out an heirloom that I treasure.

Thanks cello!
Pomander, I love your hutch. Very nice that it has at least two different sizes of shelves, so you have one for parfums, and others for FBs. I am going to need a different solution at some point because there are already some things that are fitting pretty awkwardly.
I'm ready to bite on some more FBs. I get a little gun-shy once it gets around the 100 dollar mark. But my decants of LADDM and Diorella are dwindling. Will probably also add one of the Poisons.
I hope more people post pictures, I love seeing them.
This subject shows up under various titles and then ebbs away. In hopes of getting more to post pix and get them congregated in one spot here in the female forum, I'll take the liberty of copying pix from this thread.

Quarry Is that your bathroom?? Forget the bottles, that bathroom is to DIE for! Love it. (The collection is nice, too, though)
And leads me to a question that you have probably answered in some other thread around here on storage, but can you explain that nifty storage you have on the tray holding your decants? What is that contraption? Ribbons? Elastic bands? I'm soooo intrigued and think I can make something similar work for me if only I know HOW you did that??!
Hi, chaplain ~ Thank you. I'm hopelessly in love with my home (quarryschool.com). We have been excrutiatingly faithful in its restoration, except for my powder room, which I wanted to turn into a girlie grotto (the boys' urinals used to be lined up against that wall you're looking at).
Here's a link to the thread about the tray strung with ribbons. Originally I wove the ribbon in a caning pattern, but needed more holes, so restrung it in a simple criss-cross pattern.

Why have l only just found this thread?! l think it's a great idea to have all our pics collected in one place, just like the boys do!
Quarry, thankyou so much for including mine! l've only added 2 bottles since then; L'Heure Bleue EDP & Anne Pliska extrait. Quite a few new samples though. l really must get them all out sometime soon & take some proper pics. l'll post them here when l have!
ln the meantime, l wanna see more perfume porn, please please people!

I thought I'd go ahead and post my current favorites, because I think they look nice on my new dresser, which I refinished and 'antiqued'.
I chose the large format for better visibility.

Very pretty !! nice colour for the dresser, the golden beauties stand out magnificently, what a collection ! thanks Hillaire.
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness. It's like some kind of fantasy world, Hillaire, or a high-end shop. Yes, your dresser is ahhh-mazing!

Hillaire - your dresser and bottles are to die for ! Fabulous and artistic !

I love the composition of your photo, Nuria. It must have been fun setting up for the photo shoot -- like playing with dolls. Thanks for taking the time to provide us with this display.

Phew! Thanks for reassuring me, & for going to all that effort to show us your collection in all it's glory, nice work!

Great collections!
Here's mine (or at least an attempt to post my first pix here)....I have my collection clumped in various parts of my bedroom. Some are unopened collectibles, some are sentimental keepsakes and the others are in or out of current seasonal rotation. Sorry for the mirrors....makes things hard to see in pictures (but prettier IRL):
and a close up of my "top shelf" perfumes:
Wowzer , I see at least half a dozen I would love to own , very nice perfumenut
Beautiful collection perfumenut, thanks for posting!

Thanks all!
I love seeing collections...please, everyone, post more!
Impressive, Perfumenut, impressive indeed! Those Guerlains!
Perfumenut - that's an awesome collection - really beautiful .
For sale. Carnal Flower and Vero Profumo Onda.
Wow, Nuria and Perfumenut!! Lovely! I've fallen over in my chair. Thank you for sharing all the pics. All fabulousness and beauty. Seriously, I'm impressed with the pristine quality of everbody's collections. Mine still looks like the same old jumble in my pics.
Very,very impressive collections! Lucky husbands/boyfriends smelling so many different fragrances.
The Dreamer from Versace: what does this scent have that is so alluring and enticing towards the opposite sex ?
I'm tickled by your collection, perfumenut -- especially when scrolling down through image #4. There's something about it that makes me giggle. Like a ... wait for it ... punchline.
Just a few years ago, seeing your collection, I really would have thought you were a "perfume nut," but since arriving in this alternate universe where scents make sense, I understand each bottle as an individual experience. Thanks for posting.
Monarch butterflies require milkweed to prevent extinction
Perfumenut an d Nuria, incredible. Such lovely presentations of your collections, both of you. I love the aesthetics of collecting. And how our collections seem to grow from something so essential about us.
Thank you all for your very kind comments. I need to say my collection wouldn't be half of what it is without all I am learning from you since I visit this forum. A work in progress, no doubt about that.
Wow, really enjoying seeing these lovely collections! Here's mine -- please excuse the bad photography...
I keep most of my collection in shelves on either side of the vanity in my closet.
First photo shows the piece of paper-covered cardboard that insets and protects the shelves from light. (Not the most elegant solution, but workable for now.)
Across from these shelves, I keep these bottles (and samples) that don't need light protection:
The Chanels live in the guest bathroom:
Jumpin' Jehosaphat, CRose, that's a mighty fine collection you have arranged there.
I love how you're enamored with handmade paper, and that it's your go-to tool.
Interesting that you segregated the Chanels. Would seem a need for mentally separating them. Is so?
Of course, there's always room for more somewhere.
Monarch butterflies require milkweed to prevent extinction
Beautiful, pristine collection CRose! Interesting what Quarry observes about segregating the Chanels out. She is a keen observer! I love the little paper covered boxes for resting samples in. What sort of boxes are they, matchboxes or something else? I may copy your idea and cover some cardboard boxes with origami paper or some other kind of paper for samples and small decants. Or maybe Altoid or sardine tin multi media diorama sample holders (ok, looks like I have my winter project now). I get such enjoyment and inspiration looking at all these presentations. Perhaps one day I'll have mine in a more interesting array and I'll post new pics.
Lovely, C Rose! I love those all-black L'Arte bottles.
Mrs. Q, I'm sure the Chanels are segregated because most of them are exclusifs, and they can't be hanging around with just any ole bottle. Very snooty that way, I find. Mine do the same thing, all lined up in a row, peering over their noses at the others. I allow them their space, because there is just no arguing with them. They are exclusif
CRose may have another reason
Lovely, CRose, just a lovely collection.
Oops, darn double post
Thanks for kind comments Quarry (Quarry, I love seeing in your collection that one little paper-covered decant!!) and Hillaire. Lilybelle, my sample holders are described on an old thread, along with various ingenious solutions (such as Quarry's, I think), I'll see if I can find it and append to this message.
For lillybelle, sample storage:

heres my current fragrance collection.:-))
Wow. All these put mine to shame. Very nice
I dragged all my Guerlain's out of the cupboard today to dust and figured while they were out, I'd photograph them. Unfortunately, I couldn't fit them all in one or two pics, so I decided to group them. The whole ordeal took me more than 5 hours... and I began regretting I'd ever started about half way through! lol
Anyway, I wanted to share these pics in this thread.

Brilliant presentation, Dimi! Wow, that Vol de Nuit painting is AWESOME!!! Well done - Applause!
Gasp! Droooooooool!
Words fail me Sorcery, what an astonishing collection, & such artistic & beautiful presentation! That was five hours well spent IMO.
PS l would give almost anything to have another bottle of that Shalimar PdT; (top row on the right) l had one back in the 90's & used it up without a care in the world. l had no idea what a rare treasure it was, & it's impossible to find now! lf anyone knows where l can find one, please let me know!

by Opeth
Released: Sep 2011
Label: Roadrunner Records
The Swedish progressive metal band's first album since 2008, and the last to feature keyboard player Per Wiberg, opens with a plaintive solo piano piece courtesy of Wiberg before launching into "The Devil's Orchard," which may as well have been written by Yes at the very height of their powers. That's a good thing. The similarities with classic Yes continue through "I Feel the Dark." In an era when all rock music essentially is run through Pro-Tools and made soulless, these highly intelligent beings have put out a record as alive as anything released in the '70s -- another good thing.

Weekend open thread: This will make you laugh
And now for something completely different that made the first week back at work entirely worthwhile.
What's the best thing that happened to you this week? Share with us, we want to know.
Comments on this post close at 8pm AEST

Dr B S Goh, Australian in Asia says:
Paul Keating recently said our priority in Australia in the Asian Century should be to focus on Indonesia our most important neighbour. We seem to loose sight of Indonesia and it is below our radar because bi-lateral trade between Australia and Indonesia is a small fraction of our trade with China and Japan.
Some years ago I had a discussion with a top ecologist from UK. He stated that the UK Govt then considered the risk of bird flu from Nature or terrorists as the number One strategic threat to the security of UK. It viewed the potential bird flu threat of higher significance then a nuclear war.
Given these facts, I hope our leaders political, scientific, military (Intelligence) and academics in Australia take note that the National Intelligence Agency (BIN Chief Lt. Gen. Marciano Norman frets that terrorists may one day unleash bio-weapons in Indonesia. The National Intelligence Agency says it will monitor the recent outbreak of a new strain of avian influenza in Indonesia. http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2013/01/11/terrorism-likely-behind-avian-flu-outbreak-bin-chief.html
Fed Up says:
Political correctness!
They may find it hard to understand why its wrong to have a TV commercial depicting the West Indian cricket team eating KFC.
nearly out of data in grafton says:
Thought this was worth sharing from Peter FitzSimons column in The Herald.
Tweet of the year: @rdhinds: "Oprah asks 'tough' question. Lance confesses. Lance cries. Oprah forgives. Audience goes nuts. 'Yellow jerseys under your seats!'"
Terry2 says:
So the International Monetary Fund has identified the Howard government, particularly in its latter years, as having been the most profligate spender in recent times: Hmm, profligate; adjective : reckless, excessive or wasteful.
Obviously the IMF have been infiltrated by the Labor Party.
Gregg says:
" I posess a device in my pocket that is capable of accessing the entirety of information known to man "
You reckon that's good eh!
Back in the good old days, ours was not in the pocket and neither our hands and we may not have called it a device but they certainly worked well with some women we were more partial to and if you ever want to know something of real value, it's a woman talking that will do the trick.
Gregg says:
I discovered earlier in the week that my Disallowed Key Stroke exclusion was no more so not sure if I had earnt a temporary exclusion or what for what I have absolutely no idea and Rocky Nicola doesn't have that new legislation slipped in and working on the quiet by any chance does she? and hopefully the rest of the year will progress more smoothly.
I doubt that some will think that it has started too smoothly with claims of living on the dole being OK and then retractions because of the insensitivity when it was just plain dumb and then some other guy tweeting about being on standby fire fighting duty a standby stunt only to quickly retract the statement in recognition of that foolhardiness of a slur against volunteer firefighters.
These people, the politicians that is, might be better off reducing if not entirely eliminating their public profile.
And then of course, what seemed a great Xmas present in the Slipper judgement, possibly yet a gumboot seeing as Ashby has sought to make an appeal but that did not stop the boots going in and politicians even raising the conspiracy allegations to the extent of being involved directly with urging judicial action!
Is this surprising or not when even our PM has recognised that judicial matters are best handled by those charged with the responsibility and in a completely independent manner.
Well that is what she claimed when talking about a MP she later had the party disown and then even used it as an excuse in a matter about another MP when it was entirely irrelevant and the whole party went along with it.
As it is, wearing sneakers rather than slippers would probably be a lot better and even polished leather for court attendance to face fraud charges.
Steve says:
If someone was brought forward to the 1950's today the first thing they would ask is why everyone is so big as in fat.
Steve says:
A gun for me and not for the thee.
And yet he will attempt to take away the right of people, law abiding people, to protect themselves in a manner they deem fit that was enshrined as one of the principles of the nation that he has sworn to defend.
Disgraceful. The mind boggles at his hubris.
AdamC says:
I actually think they would be just as struck by how familiar so many things are. Many of our habits and technologies are little different from the early 1950s. Someone going from 1890 to 1950, by contrast, would have been awed by novelties like automobiles, aircraft, movies, television, the telephone, domestic use of electricity and antibiotics. Communications technologies seem to be the main thing that has changed since the 1950s.
pa_kelvin says:
I don't think this portrait does her justice….
Steve says:
So Piers Morgan eh.
Invites a loon on the show that believes in 9/11 conspiracies to talk about gun control and claims a win. Twitter and the msm cheer.
Actually, stupidly, invites a sensible person with a brain on to talk about the same topic. Hilarity ensues as Piers gets his junk handed to him gift wrapped. Hilarious viewing seeing a pompous overbearing bully getting pwned on his low rating show. Love how the constitution is just a "little book".
Strange. Didn't certain staff writers of the punch get excited about the jones lunacy and link it fart and wide? Are there similar links for this abject hiding?
Gregg says:
What's not making me laugh and about the worst thing this week happening to those with no say in it goes under the title of the Magic Millions Carnival!
Like we have the old saying of " you have to be a mad dog or an englishman to be out in the midday sun " when it comes to playing cricket but at least those playing are volunteering just like the spectators and that goes for Tennis tournaments on too or any other sports we seem to love to schedule at the height of summer.
Whereas at least they schedule some evening play for one day cricket matches and tennis tournaments the poor horses though will have no say in being flogged to run faster at the height of a scorching summers day temps and have to be carrying a jockey too.
We have people protesting about how overseas countries might handle and kill livestock according to their culture and yet right here in our own backyard horses are being mercilessly treated all for entertainment and it needs to be stopped.
pa_kelvin says:
Have to ask…. What did he get hung up on????
pa_kelvin says:
And now….. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aqbSit_9vQ
Enjoy…. Take a look nihonin….
stephen says:
Mister Scott, the head of the ABC, applied recently to head the BBC.
He didn't get in, but has applied again, apparently.
Hmmm ... I wonder why.
nihonin says:
Irony -
Robert S McCormick says:
"Stephen says"
If the current head of the ABC does get to become the head of the BBC the Brits are welcome to him!
When he's gone we might just start to get:
A Decent News Service
Decent programmes
and, above all,
The cessation of the perpetual self-promotional advertisements for the ABC
The cancellation of all those damned repeats of repeats of repeats.
The ABC gets almost untold millions of Taxpayer's money yet they produce nothing new, their so-called News Service is almost in a constant loop of the same crap just run all day or they pinch stuff already shown on SBS' News - now that is a now that IS a Real news Service
PJ says:
First we got a load of anti propaganda about single mothers living it large on benefits as the Gillard Government cut there entitlements and ordered them into a none existent job market after an average of 8 years absence.
Following secret polls and focus groups costing us $126 million per year the Gillard Government tries to repair its reputation as the cruelest of the cruel with a knee jerk increase in dole payments.
The Australian: "THE Gillard government has begun modelling a suite of measures to assist those on unemployment benefits, amid a growing cabinet push to deliver an increase to the Newstart Allowance payment in this year's budget.
The move is designed to help the most vulnerable people on Newstart, including single mothers who were forced on to the payment after Labor tightened eligibility for the single-parent payment."
Just as the Labor MP Tanner said, a clueless party driven only by polls and the sole objective to get Gillard re-elected.
As if with record Debt and deficits we should be making Dole payments a larger percentage of our GDP and a way of life for the casualties of the Carbon Tax.
The extra Dole Money could be used to create jobs for these people rather than making them comfortable on Benefits. Give them self respect Julia, get them a job.
But we're talking about a Government that signed off 53.6% of the 1 million jobs the economy created over 5 years, to overseas temporary workers to create its Big Australia.
Aah There will be bad decisions and knee jerk fixes under a Government they lead…

Adequate Reimbursement Needed to Preserve Pharmacy Patient Care That Improves Health, Reduces Costs
Alexandria, Va. - Jan. 10, 2012
The National Association of Chain Drug Stores (NACDS) and National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA) commended U.S. Senators Kent Conrad (D-ND) and Olympia Snowe (R-ME) and 12 of their colleagues for a bipartisan effort to express serious concerns with draft Federal Upper Limits (FUL) lists for Medicaid generic drug reimbursement that have been recently published by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
"In publishing three draft lists of Medicaid drug FULs, CMS has provided states with a potential unofficial standard for setting state maximum allowable costs (MACs). Specifically, pharmacists believe that if states were to implement MACs based on the CMS's draft FUL lists, pharmacies could see reduced reimbursement for selected generic drugs in the range of 30% to 60% of acquisition costs. Cuts of this magnitude could create a disincentive to dispense generic drugs, which is exactly the opposite of what we should be trying to achieve as we seek to control health care costs," the Senators wrote in a letter to CMS.
Fourteen Senators signed the letter to CMS: Senators Daniel Akaka (D-AK), Michael Bennet (D-CO), Roy Blunt (R-MO), Bob Casey (D-PA), Thad Cochran (R-MS), Kent Conrad (D-ND), John Hoeven (R-ND), Tim Johnson (D-SD), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Pat Leahy (D-VT), Olympia Snowe (R-ME), Debbie Stabenow (D-MI), Jon Tester (D-MT) and Roger Wicker (R-MS).
NACDS and NCPA have also expressed concern with the draft FUL lists in written comments to CMS. "We are pleased that our arguments have been given further credibility by a large, bipartisan group of Senators," stated NACDS President and Chief Executive Officer Steven C. Anderson, IOM, CAE and NCPA CEO B. Douglas Hoey, RPh, MBA. "We want to especially thank Senators Conrad and Snowe for their leadership on this important issue."
In addition to urging CMS to cease publication of draft FUL lists until a final AMP rule is in place, the Senators also urged the agency to be mindful of comprehensive pharmacy reimbursement.
"When setting pharmacy reimbursement rates, it is important that both components of reimbursement—product cost and cost to dispense—be taken into consideration to ensure pharmacies are adequately paid," the Senators wrote.
Last month, a similar bipartisan letter was sent to CMS by 40 U.S. Representatives raising concerns over the flawed Medicaid pharmacy reimbursement process.
The Senate letter can be viewed here.
The National Association of Chain Drug Stores (NACDS) represents traditional drug stores, supermarkets, and mass merchants with pharmacies—from regional chains with four stores to national companies. Chains operate 39,000 pharmacies, and employ more than 2.7 million employees, including 118,000 full-time pharmacists. They fill nearly 2.6 billion prescriptions annually, which is more than 72 percent of annual prescriptions in the United States. The total economic impact of all retail stores with pharmacies transcends their $830 billion in annual sales. Every $1 spent in these stores creates a ripple effect of $1.96 in other industries, for a total economic impact of $1.57 trillion, equal to 11 percent of GDP. NACDS represents 137 chains that operate these pharmacies in neighborhoods across America, and NACDS members also include more than 900 pharmacy and consumer packaged goods suppliers and service providers, and over 60 international members from 23 countries. For more information about NACDS, visit www.NACDS.org.
The National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA®) represents the interests of America's community pharmacists, including the owners of more than 23,000 independent community pharmacies. Together they represent a $93 billion health care marketplace, dispense nearly 40% of all retail prescriptions, and employ more than 315,000 people, including 62,400 pharmacists. Independent community pharmacists are readily accessible medication experts who can help lower health care spending. They are committed to maximizing the appropriate use of lower-cost generic drugs and reducing the estimated $290 billion that is wasted annually by improper medication use.

EAGAN, Minn., Feb. 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- A Dakota County (MN) court granted a judgment in favor of Eagan-based dermatologist Charles E. Crutchfield III, M.D. for the full amount he paid Inside Sports & Entertainment Group, commonly known as InsideSEG, and its owner, Ety Rybak, for his family to see international superstar Sade at the Target Center in Minneapolis. In his complaint, Crutchfield claimed that he purchased a "world class experience" from InsideSEG based on the company's claims of the services they deliver.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140204/PH57719 )
The complaint outlines that instead, Crutchfield and his family were subject to constant disruptions of camera operators throughout the entirety of the concert. The suit further alleged that efforts to resolve the matter were unsuccessful and that InsideSEG owner Ety Rybak told the Crutchfields the company was not interested in attempting to resolve their concerns.
In their court filings, the Crutchfields describe how they relied upon InsideSEG's promise to deliver an excellent experience for a premium price. All appeared well when the Crutchfields and their children arrived at the venue and were seated in the first row directly in front of the stage, as expected. What they claimed was not expected was how, for the entire performance, a large cameraman was placed directly in front of them, blocking their view of the singer and band for most of the performance. Despite repeated requests during the 90-minute performance, the cameraman refused to move from in front of the Crutchfields' seats.
Following the show, the Crutchfields immediately reported the problem to Ety Rybak, owner of InsideSEG. After a brief discussion, InsideSEG's representatives informed the family that they would not provide anything as a resolution to the Crutchfield's concerns. Rather, Rybak and InsideSEG argued they were not responsible for the "overall experience" but only acted as a ticket broker. Although Ety Rybak offered the Crutchfields what he described as a "great deal" on tickets to Major League Baseball's All-Star Game, Crutchfield rejected the offer when he discovered he could purchase the seats at a lower price on StubHub.com.
When discussions stalled, Crutchfield commenced the Dakota County court action. In an order filed on December 23, 2013, the court entered judgment against InsideSEG and Ety Rybak for the full amount paid for the tickets plus the Crutchfields' costs to bring the action.
"Never having to go to court like this before, it feels good knowing there is accountability for businesses that don't deliver on their promises," Crutchfield observed. "I was terribly disappointed with the experience and felt they completely overpromised and under-delivered."

It hasn't been a great stretch of games in Western Canada for Pekka Rinne. What gives?
The notoriously streaky Curtis Glencross had a hat trick last night. Time to ride out another hot streak?
Mikael Backlund has been one of Calgary's best players (when healthy) this season, and he was seen after the game tonight walking around on crutches. Not good news at all.
Lost in Calgary's bad season has been the play of a few bright spots – Jiri Hudler is one, and Dennis Wideman is another (both UFA signings from last summer).
Hudler was slumping a bit as of late (no points in his previous four games), but 18 points in 23 games is great production from a secondary scorer.
And Wideman has been logging a ton of minutes for Calgary and doing a pretty good job of it, too.
And finally, there is Lee Stempniak. 20 points in 26 games – who saw this coming? He has a wicked shot and a lot of offensive talent, and he is making the most of his increase in minutes in 2013.
Taylor Hall was dominant last night – he can take over games like none of the other young guys in Edmonton. He is learning how to pick his spots better and stay out of dangerous areas on the ice, which is great to see. He is too talented to keep getting injured.
He finished the game with two points and six shots on goal.
He gets slammed whenever he plays bad, but Ilya Bryzgalov was great last night for the Flyers in Jersey, stopping 27 of 28 pucks fired his way.
Is father time catching up with Danny Briere? He hasn't been himself this year (granted, injuries could also be a factor).
Andrei Loktionov left the game with an injury after playing only four minutes. I am sure you can find updates here on the Dobber forum when news breaks.
David Clarkson scored the lone Devils goal and also had eight of those 28 shots that Bryzgalov faced.
Fantastic contract between Oliver Ekman-Larsson and the Coyotes. Six years and $33 million, or $5.5 per year. He's worth that amount now, and he is likely going to continue to get better.
There aren't many defensemen I'd take over OEL if I were starting a franchise. Letang, Karlsson, Weber… I think that's it. An argument could be made for Drew Doughty too.
Florida has acquired depth defenseman TJ Brennan from the Sabres for a 5th round pick. If you can't make the Sabres back end, that has to say something, no?
Brennan is a good puck mover who is a work-in-progress in the defensive zone. Florida is stacked with young talent on the back end, and Brennan is probably a worthwhile gamble for them to take on.
I'd expect Brennan to see some PP time down the stretch for the Panthers, as they will want to see if he is worth keeping around past this season. This hurts the short term value of Colby Robak.
My next top 10 ranking list – defensemen. Here are the lists from the past three seasons:
How would you rank the defensemen for 2013?
Brett Connolly is patiently waiting for his NHL opportunity.
Connolly, one of the most consistent players in the AHL this season, is still waiting for his next chance up top.
"When you were there (the NHL) all year, you want to be there next year,'' he said earlier this week.
Tampa Bay is force-feeding Connolly minutes as an AHL mainstay with the Crunch this season, and the prospect is devouring the opportunity. He is tied for eighth in the AHL with 52 points (24-28) and has rarely turned in a bad game, much less two in a row.
According to beat writer Helene St. James, the Red Wings are in trouble if they can't pull things together soon.
What the Wings really need is to get more out of their regular personnel. Zetterberg and Pavel Datsyuk, who shouldered the team the first third of the season, have suddenly gone as cold as Edmonton's weather, with Datsyuk on an 11-game goal drought and Zetterberg coming in at two assists the last eight games. Damien Brunner has cooled off, going seven games without a goal. After a shoulder-injury layoff, Valtteri Filppula scored Wednesday in his first game back, but it was only his fifth goal in 20 games overall.
Henrik Sedin undresses Chris Mason – what a move:
And Luongo and Schneider show off their comedic talents in this funny TSN bit:
Who will the Sabres move at the trade deadline this season?
According to Pierre LeBrun, the Canucks are once again interested in Steve Ott (they first tried to trade for him last year from Dallas). Ott would be the perfect fit on the Canucks third line – he can chip in offensively, he's good defensively, and great at faceoffs.
And he would help solidify Vancouver's reputation as the NHL's most hated team, too.
Sticking with Buffalo... great asset mangement with Mikhail Grigorenko. The Sabres sent him back to the Q yesterday after wasting one year of his entry level contract. Grigorenko played about 220 minutes for the lowly Sabres in 2013 instead of developing in junior, and now the Sabres completely wasted a year of his affordable rookie contract. No wonder they are near the basement in the East.
Ryan Ma and I have developed an App for Android and Apple – FantasyHockeyPP. We aren't aiming to compete with ESPN, TSN, or RotoWorld in terms of scope or volume of coverage and updates, but we want to provide top-notch analysis on the breaking news in the hockey world. All other hockey Apps on the market give you an update on an injury or a player's performance, but they don't dig deep at all. We want to do that.
We are also rolling out a Midseason Guide in the next few days… stay tuned for an update. Here is some more info on FantasyHockeyPP.
Feel free to email or message me with feedback, too. Want to make this thing easy to use and very useful.

Where do you slot OEL in terms of fantasy production? Is he in the second teir with guys like Weber, Subban, Buff or is he the dreaded better in real life than fantasy hockey type defenseman? Thanks Angus!

Keep up the good work.
Who is the goalie in Dallas for the future? Is it Campbell?
pattywins said:
Slammed by you ... thursday for example ... when it would have been 8-3 if not for Bryz.
Two bad pinches, including a short hand break away to kovalchuk, leads to goals.
But apparently he stunk ...
bullwinkle said:
Vancouver can dream on, Ott isn't going anywhere. In fact I expect that he'll wear the 'C' next season along with a contract extension. The guy is just what the team needs.
Finally the Sabres made a mistake in keeping Grigorenko up here. After seeing their first 5 games, I thought he should have been sent down. He's not ready for prime time...yet.

Raleigh >Food & Dining > Jibarra
327 West Davie St, Raleigh, NC | Directions 2760135.775726 -78.644671
Neighborhoods: Central
Terrible experience – Went to Jibarra for the $5 dollar lunch special they were running last week. Great concept, but it seems they may have not been ready for the crowd.
There was a little bit of a wait and the bad experience started when the manager was telling everyone to move away from the front door in a very impatient and rude way.
The food I ordered ( beef tacos) took nearly 45 minutes to get to my table and the waitress only checked on me once during the entire time I was there.
When I asked to speak with the manager, it took her another 15 minutes to get to my table, and she had such chip on her shoulder acting like I was doing her a big favor for coming in to the restaurant to eat.
The food was good, but there are plenty of other great restaurant choices around downtown if you're looking to eat within your lunch hour, and expect to be treated with courtesy.
Good Food - Very bad service – The food was good, atmosphere great, but wait service was too slow. We left saying we'd have had a completely different impression if our waitress had been knowldedgeable about the menu and attentive to our table. We'll eat at Dos Taquitos Centro next time.
Great food, but the service was a little slow. – I went here a couple of weeks ago with my husband and parents. Service was a bit slow, and for some reason they were out of shot glasses (???), but the atmosphere and food more than made up for those cons. The guacamole was FANTASTIC and very well priced. My mom had the salmon, which was perfectly done; my hubby had the osso bucco, which was falling apart tender and delicious; and my dad had the tacos de carne asada, which he said was great. I had the fajita de arrachera, which unfortunately wasn't as good as my family's entrees. It came out very rare, which I normally would've been okay with, but I'm pregnant, and so didn't want to take any chances. I just wish either I had remembered to ask for well done, or the waitress had asked me how I'd like it cooked. (She knew I was pregnant.) I sent it back to the kitchen, and the waitress was very apologetic. Unfortunately, though, meat doesn't do well reheated, and so when it came back well done, it was tough as leather. To make matters worse, I had only a butter knife to cut it with, as I had trouble flagging the waitress down again. So, the moral of the story is, if you're ordering beef, to be sure and tell them up front how you'd like it cooked. My hubby and I are planning on going back, but I won't be ordering the fajitas again.
Awesome downtown addition! – Me and a girlfriend went to Jibarra about three weeks ago. The place is awesome! Gorgeous decor, exciting Mexican food, upbeat music, and friendly staff.
We sat in the high tables area, and started out with some tasty margaritas that our gorgeous Hispanic waitress recommended to us. The two exotic flavor margaritas we tried came with an edible orchid. What beautiful presentation! We had the salada completa, which was a wonderful salad to share. Then took another great recomendation to eat the Conchinita Pibil appetizer. This food is special, and the margaritas are addicting!!
After our meal, we moved to the bar to have some more margaritas, and bartender was very corteous and knowledgeable about the tequilas.
We took some pictures with the tequila tower behind us to share with our friends our awesome find in downtown Raleigh!
I'll become a regular for sure!
Awesome! – I went to lunch today at Jibarra with my wife. It was my birthday saturday, and I was looking for someplace different and special. We went all out with appetizer, entree, dessert. First of all, service was great, we got great recommendations and everything was served quickly. Food was hot with excellent presentation. And best of all, it was delicious.
We had the cochinita appetizer, which was marinated pulled pork and sweet onions wrapped in a banana leaf (served with warm tortillas). This was a recommendation from our server, and it was super. I highly recommend it. For the entrees, we had the burrito de arrachera and the torta de cochinita. The pork in the entree was similar to the pork in the appetizer, and again was very good. It could probably be placed on better bread, it was sort of a plain round roll. Nothing exciting. But again, the pork was very tasty. The pork dish came with a side of steak fries covered with chipotle aioli. Excellent. I was jokingly calling them mexican cheese fries. I liked them a lot. Fries were very crispy, and the aioli was flavorful and had a kick. The burrito was also very good, the steak was cut in small pieces and very tender. We got a house salad on the side. The salad was ok, it could use a more flavorful dressing and more interesting toppings in it. For dessert, we had the pan de natas, which was a bread pudding/custart with a tart marmalade on top, served with chocolate ice cream on the side. Very, very good. Again, excellent presentation.
The interior of the restaurant is very nice, in the historic Depot on Davie St. near downtown. I liked having parking right outside, as opposed to struggling to find parking at many downtown eateries.
I plan on going back very soon.
Terrible – After college I served/bartended at a small family-owned high end Mexican restaraunt. Since I've been in Raleigh I've struggled to find a good Mexican restaraunt. I had driven past Jibarra in North Raleigh but never got up there to try it out so I was excited for the downtown opening.
The location is great. Its in the warehouse district close to The Pit (recently opened restaraunt) and Five Star (great Chinese food) Jibarra itself is in some sort of renovated warehouse and the decor is nice so it has a very cool and modern feel to it.
Right now that is the only good thing I can say about this place. Management has no idea what they are doing.
Drinks took forever to come out. We waited about 20 minutes for the first round of Margarita's, one of which came out with no tequila. Even those that were made were correctly were not all that good. We had their signature Margaritas which use the house reposado and Grand Marnier instead of triple sec. We were assured that they use fresh squeezed lime juice, but to me it tasted the a margarita made with mix that you get from Chili's.
I can't say much about the food because we really didn't get to try it. I was told an hour after ordering that they did not have the dish I ordered-they were out of it. They were also out of another of my party's order. I asked what could be made quick. I got the Quesadilla de Camaron about an hour and a half after ordering. I'm sure this comes frozen and the kitchen deep fries it. It should be on the kid's menu. My girlfriend got the Tacos de Carne Asada (this was a late dinner-we were focused on drinks and small plates) This was not -so-tender, dried out steak served on top of mashed potatoes with a few tortilla shells. My girlfriends brother in laws food was freezing cold and the server told him he wasn't surprised it had been sitting around for a while.
Don't go to this place. For a better experience try Dos Taquitos off Creedmor in North Raleigh.
Watch out for the bean shot!
What happened Jibarra? – My husband and I loved Jibarra at it's original location- the only thing lacking was the location. The food and service was always fabulous. I was so excited to see Jibarra move downtown as it was one of my favorite restaurants. I told everyone to go there. Last night we went to the new location and we were sorely disapointed by the service. You can tell Jibarra now has different priorites. I expected a few bumps in their transition to the new space but the new staff is not as knowledgable or professional as it should be for this caliber of food. After waiting an hour for an appetizer I asked our waitress to cancel it. We then received it a half hour later. When we finally got our bill our waitress told us "we took off the appetizer-even though you still got it" Please don't do us any favors! I understand the waitstaff has nothing to do with the slow kitchen but there was no explanation or apologies by our waitress- we just sat there wondering. I hope Jibarra can work out the kinks and learn to hire better staff.
"fancy" Mexican – Went tonight for a friend's birthday. Got there early, and sat at the bar. Took nearly 20 minutes to recieve drinks for myself and one friend. Was asked only once in nearly an hour if we needed anything else. Ordered an appitizer that never came; instead was repeated given something that was not ordered. Had an 8:30 reservation was not seated until 9:00. Original appetizer finally arrived and it looked overcooked and as if it had been sitting for a while. The waiter seemed nice enough, and knowledgable about the menu (the menu was pretty limited). Did not order a meal due to having to leave by a certain time.
Was all around NOT impressed. Will not be going back again.
Best upscale "Mexican" around!...reopening in Nov! – My husband and I tried Jibarra after I read about it in Metro Magazine back at the beginning of the year. We LOVED it. The location was terrible (off of Six Forks Rd), but we had a great experience. We were given a free app from the chef (cold, Leek soup on a ladle), which was delicious. My husband ordered the softball steak, which he loved and I got Mahi Mahi over Lobster mashed potatoes....excellent! The drinks were also great. My husband especially loved the Tequila flights. We were so disappointed when we decided to try it out again for his bday a few weeks ago and drove there, just to find another restaurant had opened up! I am so happy to have found out Jibarra will be reopening in November in a much better locale!
Not worth the dollars – Nice environment. Too little food for the dollars. Decent service. Decent food. Not much else to say except there are certainly better places in the Raleigh area.

Sightseeing and relaxation
Prom walks and old Biarritz in splendid belle époque cafés. Marvel at the grand Hôtel du Palais built by Napolean III's wife, Eugénie, then follow the prom round to the rocky outcrop of Rocher de la Vierge. Unwind with a slice of almondy gâteau basque at Café-Pâtisserie Miremont where the Roaring Twenties crowd used to turn up in open-top Bentleys.
Designer names and traditional Basque gifts. Place Clemenceau and its surrounding streets are lined with designer-name boutiques with the price tag to match. Delicatessens in the Old Port fill their shelves with velvety Biarritz chocolates and touron nougat packed with almonds and honey. Take home expertly woven Basque textiles and rope-soled espadrilles.

By Steve Mistler firstname.lastname@example.com
Staff Writer
AUGUSTA — Gov. Paul LePage exercised his own editorial judgement when he described the IRS as the "new Gestapo" during his recent radio address. However, the governor acknowledged Monday that his reference to the Nazi secret police "clouded" his message about the federal health care law.
Gov. Paul LePage
The governor's written statement Monday stopped short of a public apology, which had been demanded by national and local Jewish groups. However, Emily Chaleff, director of the Jewish Community Alliance of Southern Maine, said LePage called her to personally apologize for his remarks.
At the same time, LePage told WMTW-TV in an interview Monday that, "It was never intended to offend anyone and if someone's offended, then they ought to be goddamned mad at the federal government."
The Gestapo were Nazi Germany's secret police under Adolf Hitler, who imprisoned and murdered millions of people during World War II.
Monday's events marked the third day of a controversy that garnered national media attention over a comment that LePage personally added to his weekly radio address.
Adrienne Bennett, LePage's communications director, often writes the governor's radio message. That was the case last week; however, Bennett said the governor inserted the "Gestapo" reference after she and staff finished editing it. Bennett said the comment initiated a "healthy dialogue" among staff, but it remained in his prepared remarks when LePage recorded the address on Friday. It was not ad-libbed during recording.
The detail adds context to the governor's remark. Some of LePage's opponents originally believed that the administration cleared the comment to spur opposition to a health care law that divides the American public.
The governor said in today's written statement that it was not his "intent to insult anyone, especially the Jewish Community, or minimize the fact that millions of people were murdered."
He added, "Clearly, what has happened is that the use of the word Gestapo has clouded my message. Obamacare is forcing the American people to buy health insurance or else pay a tax."
The ''Gestapo" comment was a reference to a provision in the Affordable Care Act that requires Americans not insured by their employers or Medicaid to buy health insurance or pay an annual penalty when filing their tax returns. The provision, known more broadly as the individual mandate, was the subject of a multi-state lawsuit. Maine was a plaintiff in the lawsuit.
The mandate was recently upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court.
LePage said during his radio address, which aired Saturday, that the court decision has "made America less free."
"We the people have been told there is no choice," he said. "You must buy health insurance or pay the new Gestapo – the IRS."
Anti-Defamation League New England Regional Director Derrek L. Shulman said LePage's statement on Monday was "disappointing and insufficient."
"The statement doesn't demonstrate an understanding or recognition that a comparison between a Nazi police force and a modern governmental agency have no place in modern politics or anywhere else," Shulman said. "It's absurd."
House Speaker Rep. Robert Nutting, R-Oakland, said that while he would have chosen a different word, the uproar over the use of "Gestapo" was "much ado about nothing."
"Politicians from both sides of the aisle have invoked the word 'gestapo' in the past to reference heavy-handed government tactics," said Nutting, adding that Democratic protests to the governor's comments were "manufactured outrage" that "indicates to me that their party is desperately seeking a way to become relevant."
Response to the governor's comments has been as divided as the debate over the individual mandate itself. LePage has been blasted by Democrats. However, he's been applauded by online commenters and in email responses to a Portland Press Herald story.
