John Kani explains his absence on ‘Lion King’ cast photo: He was away

Mzansi’ veteran actor, John Kani, has come forward on social media to restore harmony about his absence form a cast photo of the Lion King. He explained he was away on the day of the photoshoot.

Local social media users were confused and some shocked earlier this week when the film’s official Twitter page shared a picture of the cast, and both John Kani and US actor, James Earl Jones, were missing.

Kani voices the popular Rafiki in the film. He veteran actor has received accolades around the world for his work and starred in several Hollywood films, which is why his absence in the cast photo was such a huge shock.

Social media users were outrages and in a frenzy, demanding answers when Kani took to Twitter to reply to a concerned fan and to calm the masses.

He wrote: “Please understand that some of these pictures are taken while I am in production in England and could not be available.”

Kani later shared his experience abroad, ahead of the film’s premiere on Tuesday night, and how airport officials met him at the door of his plane to whisk him to another flight.

“Landed in JFK. Mrs Kani and I met at the door of the plan by airport officials taken through diplomatic customs desk. Quick passport check and then taken to the connecting LA flight for the Lion King red carpet premiere. Wow, I am getting used to this sh*t!”

All this confusion and excitement was amid the news that Kani will star as Botswana’s King Khama III in a new Hollywood film titled, Let My Country Be.

Kani is expected to star alongside John Cleese and Stephen Fry in the film, which will tell the story of an African king who tours England in 1895 to confront Queen Victoria about his land being stolen.

Xcel defends executive pay as it seeks rate hike

Officials at Xcel Energy Inc. are defending the amount of money the Minneapolis-based utility spends on employee compensation.

"We have to compete in the marketplace for good quality employees, so we think it's important that our compensation packages really be pegged to the market average," Regional Vice President Laura McCarten told Minnesota Public Radio. "We understand it's very important for us to control our costs, and to date our costs are below the national average, so I think we've done a pretty good job."

Xcel is requesting a 10.7 percent rate hike that would amount to about $285 million. The Public Utilities Commission granted a 9 percent interim rate increase in December.

The Minnesota Department of Commerce says Xcel should slash $22 million in bonuses for company executives and expensive flights on corporate jets.

The PUC is hosting a series of public hearings, which began Monday. A final decision is expected sometime in September.

Faith mental health recovery

Washing Machine Prayers

If I could find a way to put the last few months into paragraphs, I would, but right now I am faced with a washing machine full of words. If I open it now everything will spill out, tangled in soap and dirty water, and I will be swamped.

I’ve searched everywhere I can think of, and I can’t seem to find what the right thing is to do when faced with such a situation, or even one similar. I’m looking desperately for answers, but there doesn’t seem to be any.

My faith has perhaps been in the washing machine along with everything else. Still very much there, but sometimes hidden by a build-up of dirt and stains. I’ve spent my time with my hands pressed to the glass, head spinning, nausea rising—searching.

Sometimes it’s there

clearly— clearly— beautiful—bright

Other days I cannot sing What a Beautiful Name without suffocating. My head has twisted the words, lies whispering victim, I want to scream my lungs out from the back of the church.

Then, still, small, the words I helped place around the church auditorium, the scribbled copy Zephaniah 3:17 taped to my bedroom door speaks truth.

Grounding. Breathe in, out. Trust.

(I hate this kind of writing.)
(I don’t.)
(I hate being the writer.)
(I want to speak of finished and better and fixed.)

Sometimes I feel like I’m grasping at straws. Other times I have just given up. Wordless groans, I don’t know what to pray—

—which I think is okay, for a while. I have no doubt that God loved me in every moment of silence, closed heart and ears, stiff upper lip.

My heart ached —I could feel it bruising in my chest.

My Dad has been in hospital after an accident and my Mother has been away, waiting for him like she has so many times before. It’s been a long while since I’ve had to play mum, but these past few weeks I have done my best.

My youngest sister is six. I’ve put her to bed most nights the last few weeks, I’ve sat with her and prayed and I swear the first night I did I felt my heart break.

I missed talking to God with that kind of childish honesty. Fear and love and confusion.

I miss you I miss you I miss you.

Perhaps I needed another nudge in the ribs.

Hospital. Anger. Crying. Memories memories memories.

Come back come back come back.

Finally, I disappeared into the bushland near home, sat on a log, and prayed.

—definitely not a textbook prayer. (My religion teacher would have a fit.)

I did not have a lightning bolt moment. Instead, I cried my silly eyes out and spoke and listened until I felt like a whisper told me I needed to go home and rest.

I can’t exactly explain it.

The closest I can come to any sort of metaphor is some lame high school story.
(one day I will accept that I’m a proper adult now, my school days drift further back each moment).

Some weeks I wouldn’t do so well at balancing dance and specialist athletics training, and I would a c h e. That deep burning of overused muscles, can’t sit comfortably.

Everything hurts.

And then you have to leave at 6:30am for school.

Check your diary, and mercifully it’s a sports uniform day.

Swap heavy skirt and stiff blouse for track pants and a polo. The ache isn’t gone, but at least you are safe from waistbands and collars and skirts that flare up in the slightest breeze.

Sports uniform feels like at home clothes in a not home environment.

I think that maybe this is how I feel now. Everything still aches and maybe it will for while. I will still cry on Christmas days and Sundays and skip parties and ignore phone calls but I think it’s okay for some things to hurt and hurt and hurt. Somethings are deeply painful and for good reason.

Within all of this, I am trying to find where my faith sits, how to renew my mind and live like one redeemed.

But I think there is grace for that?

And I think there is grace for the days I scream and cry and hide like a child. And there is grace and forgiveness for the days I call out to any other idol. Grace upon grace upon grace.

I want to write like a finished product. Speak my ‘I was’, but instead I am 21 and trying to find God and love and myself in a rubble made of ‘could haves’ and ‘if only’s’.

I spent my teenage years begging for stories of people who loved Jesus but with hurts that were still healing. Maybe it is my turn to be that person.

I also do not want to seem as if I have any sort of answers, because I don’t, but I am
walking walking walking, collecting truth and words.

All my love,

By Britts Amelia

Browser's Den of Magic (

Second Thoughts by Ramon Rioboo & Hermetic Press

Ramon Rioboo has a reputation as an innovator of card tricks capable of fooling and entertaining the most knowledgeable audiences, whether magicians or the public. His methods defy the common expectations of mathematically based solutions. They are at the same time simple and sophisticated, often seasoned with a touch of sleight-of-hand. His constructions make the math and the manipulation invisible. They are pointedly designed to fool everyone, and they do. Riobóo delights in taking what spectators know or suspect and using it against their reasoning to leave them with a sense of pure astonishment.

While his first book, Thinking the Impossible, showed Riobóo's ability to fool the best and brightest, all who have read Second Thoughts, his newest collection of card magic, judge it to be not a sequel but a step up to a new level of ingenious deception. It is a substantial gathering of truly baffling card magic, designed to be performed with an air of casualness that baits the trap and then springs it down hard onto your rational mind.

For those who have read Thinking the ImpossibleSecond Thoughts will delight with its advanced skulduggery. For those just meeting the card magic of Señor Riobóo, take a deep breath; you're going to need it when his magic leaves you gasping in disbelief.

As befits a longtime friend of Juan Tamariz, Ramón Riobóo knows what makes a baffling card trick and how to manipulate minds as adroitly as hands do playing cards. When you open this book, be prepared to marvel at familiar effects that suddenly take a turn into the Twilight Zone, as well as effects you've never dreamed possible.

Riobóo's magic is like no other. Procedures that appear totally innocent and unpremeditated conceal a level of deceit and cunning that produces events seemingly beyond explanation.

Second Thoughts is a generous second helping of Riobóo magic. In it he explains nearly fifty tricks and routines, gives a selection of his favorite tools for constructing marvels, and rounds things out with essays explaining his thinking and the theory behind his unique brand of card magic.

Second Thoughts will have you rethinking your approach to card magic and applying Riobóo's ideas to make its effects entertaining, its methods impenetrable. Second thoughts for everyone!

After graduating with degrees in screen writing, direction and journalism, Ramón Riobóo settled into a twenty-year career as a writer and director for TVE (Television Española). He began to practice magic as a hobby in 1987. While his discovery of magic was later in life than usual, his deep passion has made up for lost time. His main interest is card magic and the principles of psychological deception. He is the recipient of the Ascanio Award (1992) and the First Prize in Card Magic from the XIX National Magic Congress (1993, Barcelona). Riobóo is also a member of the prestigious Escuela Magica de Madrid. He is the author of two books on card magic, Thinking the Impossible, being the first.

Page count - 356

"His effects fool me, and his ingenious methods amaze me."
R. Paul Wilson

"Ramon Rioboo constructs card tricks with so many devious and interlocking layers of deception you just can't crack the code."
Steve Beam

"Wow! This new book is an incredible compendium of some genius-level thinking about card magic. Ramon's forte is methods based on hidden mathematical principles, cunning psychological ploys and crafty stacks. Add in several innovative new sleights, some inspired use of gaffs and some extraordinary yet commercial presentations and you have a collection of fabulous new material that will be used by magicians for decades to come. But this book contains so much more. The theoretical underpinnings of Ramon's style and approach are thoroughly examined and explained. And keener students will be pleased to know that's just the start; Ramon discusses much of his philosophical research and conclusions about what makes for strong magic, powerful tricks and successful magicians.
If you like fooling other magicians, then this book has your name written all over it. If you are a professional performer, there are at least half-a-dozen killer tricks that you'll want to add to your repertoire immediately. And I finally have an answer to my question: 'If Einstein had been into card magic, I wonder what kind of book he would have written?' Now I know. Highest recommendation."

Mark Elsdon

"Every card magician will be fooled by his creativity and deeper concepts and thinking about card magic. I suggest you get his book before you become fooled, fried and Rioboo'd by somebody else."
Raj Madhok

"I was super impressed. Not just the volume of tricks (which there were a ton of!) but I found very often I was highlighting things throughout the book. Tools and insights within those tricks that I can apply to other areas. If you're looking for a book with a lot of really great material plus a lot of nuances you can apply to other areas of magic that you do, check out Second Thoughts."
David Corsaro

Bills 13, Patriots 10

BILLS (C): It would have been a much easier win if not for Linton's key fumbles. Thurman ran great. Flutie scrambled superbly.

PATS (B): Pats sputtered first three quarters. But Allen had 67 of his 126 yards in fourth quarter and OT. It was his best game all year.

BILLS (B): Flutie got the job done. He had just 17 passing yards at half but finished with 212. He avoided about 10 sacks. No INTs.

PATS (F): Even with an improved running game, Bledsoe could not snap out of his funk. He was awful. Sacked six times. Just 101 passing yards.

BILLS (C): Pretty good through three quarters, but front seven seem to get tired near end of the game. Need to be much tougher next week vs. Edgerrin James.

PATS (C): Gave up a whopping 168 yards rushing -- 135 in regulation. But forced two fumbles and played tough on short yardage.

BILLS (A): For second time in a month made Drew look like a patsy. This makes 12 sacks of Bledsoe in two games. Winfield played strong game.

PATS (C): Beantown defenders played well enough to win. Blitzes were effective early. Pass rushers faded late. Subs did decent job.

BILLS (C): Christie won it with chip shot. Kickoff coverage was shaky against Brown, a superb return man. His late KO and punt returns almost won game.

PATS (D): Vinatieri's miss from 33 yards was great gift for Bills. Brown was a terror on returns. Johnson's last punt into wind helped Bills.

BILLS (B): Bills outgained Pats, 374 to 225. But fumbles helped turn game into a war. Offense must convert more chances.

PATS (D): No excuse for Bledsoe looking this bad. Carroll, Zampese deserve a lot of blame. Why throw deep on 3rd & 2 with 3:00 left? Odd.

No rest for the weary, but Bandits still beat Rochester Steenhuis ties franchise mark with seven goals

Maybe rest is overrated.

The Buffalo Bandits made the most of a hectic 24 hours by beating the Rochester Knighthawks, 18-13, Saturday night before 13,722 at HSBC Arena. It capped a perfect weekend that began with Friday night's 13-11 win at Minnesota. As a result, the Bandits (7-4) stand alone atop the National Lacrosse League's East Division.

Mark Steenhuis tied the Bandits franchise record for goals in a game with seven, including scores on his first six shots.

"I felt I owed it to the guys on the team because I hadn't been playing up to my potential," said Steenhuis, who matched NLL career scoring leader John Tavares and head coach Darris Kilgour as Buffalo's seven-goal scorers.

Since burning the defending champion Toronto Rock for five goals and four assists Jan. 13 in the opener, Steenhuis had scored more than twice in a game just once. And he'd been held to four total points the last three games.

"For the last five games it seemed like every time he had a good opportunity, he'd hit a post or hit a butt end," Kilgour said. "You keep working and good things happen. It took a few games for the worm to turn, but it finally did for him."

Steenhuis scored the first three goals of the third quarter for the Bandits, who had taken a 9-4 halftime lead. Two came with Buffalo playing short-handed and the Bandits eventually increased their lead to as much as 16-7.

Nearly as important as Steenhuis' contribution was what Rochester's John Grant Jr. didn't do. The league's scoring leader was held to just three assists. It was only the third time in 91 career games, covering seven seasons, that he didn't score a goal.

"We've done many different things against Grant over the years, we've boxed-and-oned him, tried to shut him off, tried to match little guys on him to pester him," said Kilgour. "The only thing we hadn't tried is to put someone about the same size on him and it really seemed to work."

Enter 6-foot-3, 260-pound Bandits defenseman Troy Bonterre, who dressed for just the third time this season to match up against Grant, who is 6-2, 230.

Bonterre used his massive body to keep Grant from developing any rhythm in Buffalo's end.

"He gets frustrated pretty easy and once he does, he just starts taking dumb shots," Bonterre said. "To get him out of his game I was just supposed to knock him around as much as I could. He's a bigger guy and it's easier for me to guard and bang on bigger guys."

It was just the second time in the 12-year history of the series that the Bandits had beaten the Knighthawks by as many as five goals. The first was by 14-9 in Rochester on Feb. 10, 1996, during Rochester's second season. Though the Bandits have defeated Rochester four straight times at home during the regular season, Rochester still leads the series, 17-11.

The Knighthawks, who lost their third straight, fell to 7-6 and are a full game behind the Bandits, who have won three in a row. The Knighthawks are tied for second with the Rock, while the Philadelphia Wings and Minnesota Swarm are both 6-6. The top four teams make the playoffs. While the Bandits were winning twice this weekend, every other team in the East lost. The Bandits also took the season series, 2-1, from the Knighthawks and now own tie-breaker advantages over them, the Rock and the Swarm.

The Bandits endured a brutal travel schedule. After playing in the Twin Cities, they answered a 4:45 a.m. wake-up call for a 7 a.m. flight that included a stopover in Chicago. It was just before noon by the time they got back to Buffalo, barely enough time for a quick nap before reporting to get ready for Saturday's 7:30 p.m. faceoff.

"All of us were pretty miserable [tired] but we knew we were playing for first place," said Bandits defenseman Kyle Couling. "We jumped on them early and never did let up."

Rochester had a 58-33 edge in shots and Bandits goalie Steve Dietrich made 33 saves before taking the fourth quarter off. But Rochester's Pat O'Toole, who ranks second with 11 career wins over the Bandits, had a miserable night. He stopped just nine of 21 shots and was pulled for Grant Crawley with Buffalo up, 12-5, midway through the third.

Next up for the Bandits is a trip West to face the San Jose Stealth on Friday night and the Arizona Sting on Saturday.

The software program I use is Corel PaintShop Pro 2019 Ultimate. I am sure you would like to know what I did…….well so would I as I started playing around and just kept going
I used an Artistic Effect called Chrome, I then enhanced the colour saturation, reduced the light, increased the highlights. The next process was an Image Effect called Seamless Tiling utilising Mirror effect. As for the percentages and other details I didn’t take notes. Maybe next month I shall be more diligent!!

User Rating: 5.0 (3 votes)

extenze reviewsExtenZe is the latest male enhancement product to be unleashed upon the unsuspecting public.

So far, it has been warmly received by consumers across the globe who have been more than impressed by the remarkable value for money, dramatic improvement along with the positive benefits that it provides them.

The fact that the supplement also happens to have a fairly negligible number of side effects both in terms of number as well as severity has also gone a considerable length towards winning the heart of consumers.

Whilst ExtenZe is a very remarkable product when assessed and judged by its own merits, it is made all the more remarkable and commendable by virtue of the fact that the male enhancement market has been one that has its fair share of questionable products over the year.

Most of these products were nothing more than snake oil, useless and utterly redundant placebos. The only thing these products managed to inflate was the wallets of the people responsible for the production and distribution of them.

Does ExtenZe work

Yes, it works. For many consumers, that is the extent of their curiosity with a male enhancement product and they do not wish to concern themselves with the precise details of the product. An assurance that they are not throwing their money after a totally ineffectual product is the entire guarantee they need.

Let’s take a look at some of the reasons why ExtenZe pills work so well.

The ingredients that makes it work so well

extenze pillsMen who want to gain the male sexual prowess the holistic way should consider being nourished by a supplement that gives all the benefits and effects naturally with combined powers of essential components.

This is the main reason why other male enhancement pills fall short to their promise of providing the desired results to their users. However, with ExtenZe Male Enhancement Supplement, a complete set of beneficial effects can be gained because of the secret formula that comes with every tablet.

ExtenZe is fortified with folic acid and zinc. How important these minerals are to the male enhancement process? Folic acid provides formation of healthy red blood cells and zinc integrates protection to their structure; thus, allowing increased resistance. Optimal blood flow is needed for penile tissue growth and development as well as to correct any vascular problem that may cause erectile dysfunction.

The precursor hormones included in this male enhancement supplement (DHEA and pregnenolone), are incorporated to balance hormonal issues. Furthermore, the male hormonal system causes secondary male characteristics that include penile size which is one of the goals of ExtenZe.

The aphrodisiac effects of this supplement are provided by essential herbal extracts. Proven to be beneficial against many common diseases, the herbal complexes promote increased libido to further maximize the use of this wonder pill. This effect is the result of 3 herbal extracts: black pepper seed, Piper longum seed, and ginger root.

The important male enhancement effects of this supplement never stop there. What could be more satisfying than including prolonged and heightened sexual response in the list? Yes, ExtenZe is an amazing enhancer that it adds 17 beneficial ingredients which gives its user a more extended and pleasurable sexual experience. With these added ingredients like Yohimbe, Tribilus terrestris, Korean ginseng and many other, erectile as well as ejaculatory dysfunctions may be treated.

L-arginine and GABA are also contained in every tablet. These are amino acids that help to provide structure and strength to protein molecules in tissues and muscles. Penile size enhancement is aided by incorporating amino acids like L-arginine and GABA by building more tissue structure to the organ.

The secret formula is perfectly combined to give every user the effect of an overall virility enhancement. Adding to the ingredients are the nutrients incorporated in ExtenZe to give the male body the strength and resistance it needs. Lastly, heightened sexual performance is achieved naturally by the effects of herbal complexes.

Studies has been made about this product, let’s take a deeper look at one of them.

Claims based on studies

extenze boxpillsThere are a lot of male enhancement products in the market promising bigger, longer and better. So how do you find one that not just promises, but delivers? To find out if Extenze, a male sexual enhancement supplement, does what it says, a well-documented study has been carried out among 50 males who were between the ages of 21-59, and who reported problems with sexual stamina and endurance due to unhealthy and sedentary lifestyle. Most of them sadly report that they either climax prematurely, leaving them and their partners less than fully satisfied.

The participants were given three months’ worth of the dietary supplement, to be taken once daily. The test subjects were then asked to log what they will notice in their sex lives, or physical reactions to the supplement, while taking ExtenZe.

The participants were then asked to report back what they have observed for the first four weeks after taking the product. Out of 50, 42 have noticed that they can now “perform on demand” without feeling drained afterwards. They have also reported that they can stay erect longer until their partners achieve climax, too. What’s even better, 75% of the 42 happily report that achieving a bigger and harder penis benefited their spouses or sexual partners, and they too have reported longer-lasting pleasure.

The remaining eight have noticed very slight improvements, meaning they can achieve erection but not sustain it until orgasm.

There were no one in the test group who complained about any noticeable and inconvenient side effects.

It only takes eight weeks of religiously taking the supplements every day until maximum results can be achieved. So, on the eighth week, the subjects were then asked to report back on how far they have come since starting on the supplement, and the results are very encouraging.

Of the original 50 subjects, 44 have now reported that they are seeing huge improvements, literally. They are getting easily aroused, thanks to ExtenZe’s natural herbal ingredients that increase blood flow to the penis. They also report frequent sexual encounters that are mutually satisfying to their partners because of the increase in their penises’ length and girth. And since the time it takes to achieve climax varies from male to female, it is rather important for the males to achieve longer erection so that the women too, can achieve orgasm. Half of the 44 gladly report that they can even take two.

So what does this tell us about ExtenZe?

  1. Side effects are negligible, if any;
  2. Because of lifestyle differences (some reported alcohol intake more than once a week, and alcohol interferes with the body’s metabolism that allows Extenze’s natural herbal ingredients to get properly absorbed), some test subjects were earlier to respond;
  3. ExtenZe helps increase the blood flow to the penis by de-sludging the penile nerves. In effect, the penis becomes more sensitive, and easily sustains erection because blood flow is not hampered.

In conclusion, as long as Extenze is taken as directed, it delivers what it promises: bigger, longer and harder.

That’s all good but what does real life users of ExtenZe say about it?

Testimonials from ExtenZe users:

Wayne, Houston, Texas (Posted September 2019)

I always have intimacy issues with my girlfriend: I am prone to premature ejaculation, thus leaving her unfulfilled, and leaving me frustrated because I could no longer perform. It somehow threatened our relationship until one day I chance upon Extenze online. I was hesitant to sign up because the claims seem pie-in-the-sky, but I thought I had nothing to lose. Our relationship was worth keeping, so I gave Extenze a try. At first, I hadn’t noticed any big improvements; but I changed my lifestyle a bit. I tried to minimize my alcohol intake, and after only a week of doing so, I noticed I was more prone to getting erections when we get intimate. Before, she had to do a lot of work for ten minutes before I could even “rise to the occasion,” but now, it only takes one touch and I’m all game! I have never regretted my decision to give Extenze a try. It saved our relationship.

Watson, USA (Posted December 2019)

I am 58 years old. In my age, you can hardly get it up once a week, let alone every day. I have had a major operation in the past year, and that was a real slump. In all areas of my life. So you can just imagine how frustrating it can be to remain intimate with my wife of 19 years. People our age are not supposed to have stellar sex lives anymore, but not when you come across a product as safe and as effective as Extenze. It is made of natural herbs, so that makes it rather safe for me because I am still on maintenance medication. It is not fussy; you just have to pop the pill daily. Best of all, it is affordable. I couldn’t imagine spending thousands of dollars for an implant. With Extenze, I don’t feel any side effects altogether, making it an ideal supplement for me. It hits all the check marks in my boxes!

Final thoughts about it

There is no doubt that Extenze works, their website even state that they have sold more than a billion pills worldwide!

A product that has no effect would never sell that much.

I recommend ExtenZe pills if you’re after longer lasting and stronger erections!

Where should I buy it?

You can buy ExtenZe in several different stores across the US but we are not all from USA (Or you might not like the feeling of buying this kind of a product in person) and have to resort to other options.

The official web site is called www.buyextenze.com and offers great discounts on muti packages buys – This is the way to go!

2004 chevy cavalier died and wont start again

Asked by Seth Oct 14, 2015 at 02:24 PM about the 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Hello I have a 2004 chevy caviler  with 156000 miles on it. its the base 2.2
model. The care was driving just fine then I went to back into a driveway
and turn around when I shifted the car back into drive from reverse, the car
died. I have changed the spark plugs, it has oil, it has gas, I have also
changed the timing chain, idler pulley, crank position sensor, air filter, fuel
pump and, ive also checked the fuses. i pulled the spark plugs and boots
and made sure i have spark coming to the engine and i can also smell the
gas, the car cranks but just will not turn over, any help would be greatly
appreciated thank you.

If the car has ,,, Compression, fuel and a properly time spark ... it has to start ....no, if's and or but's .. it must start (I'm an engineer) Lets review what happened ... When you turned around you shifted the Transmission .... there is a switch in that transmission that prevents starting the car unless it is in the proper position. You said the car does crank so it appears the switch is OK .... but the switch is the only thing that may be related to starting and you did actuate the switch when changing gears ,,, just to be on the safe side ,,,, check that switch

thank you very much Tom and just pulled the valve head, zero compression but the timing chain is moving and rockers and everything are going, kinda clueless as to why its not generating compression. if the crank is turning the timing chain and the cams it should generate compression, we tested all four cylinders, no compression on any of them... also for future reference what is that switch called

1 people found this helpful.

Me thinks the Head gasket could be blown but it doesn't make sense that all 4 cylinders have no compression .. good one minute then all 4 blown the next. If the cylinders had no compression then the engine would spin like a rocket when you engaged the starter. You would be able to turn the engine by hand with very little effort. ,,, for proof, crank the engine with the plugs in then crank it with all the plugs removed, Get a second compression tester because your about to get Balls deep in a repair that to me doesn't make sense. I;m not saying it's not possible because I had a car the timing chain jumped and it bent all the valves ,, but >> The switch is called a neutral safety switch

Frequently Asked Questions

What are RV rentals?

Renting an RV lets you enjoy the flexibility of RV travel without all the costs and maintenance of ownership. With a rental, you can book the perfect rig for any trip just like you would a car or hotel. With Outdoorsy, you rent directly from the RV owner but get the backing of programs like roadside assistance, insurance, and stellar support from real, live people 24/7.

How much are average RV rentals?

On average, you can expect to pay between $75 and $150 per night to rent most small trailers and campervans. Larger trailers and motorhomes could cost $100 to $250 per night. Renting an RV for a longer time can be even more affordable–a week or month-long rental could average out to less than $60 per day.

Are there RV rentals with unlimited mileage?

Yes! Each RV owner can choose whether to offer unlimited miles on their vehicles. You’ll be able to see if unlimited mileage is an option on any listing you check out. If unlimited miles are not available, you’ll be able to see what is included with the base rate and what extra miles will cost.

Are RV rentals pet-friendly?

Many RV owners allow pets in their rentals. Be sure to check the listing to see if it’s an option for the rig you have your eye on. You’ll be able to see if there is an extra deposit or fee for pets before you request a booking.

Do RV rentals offer delivery?

Having an RV delivered to your home or destination is a great way to simplify your trip. Many RV owners offer delivery and setup services, usually for an extra fee or within a certain distance of their location. Each listing shows whether or not delivery is an option.

RV rentals are available all over the country! Whether you want to pick up an RV near home to set out an epic road trip or if you want to have one ready at your destination, you can search by location for any type of rig.

Small travel trailers and campervans can usually sleep 2-4 people comfortably. Mid-size trailers and motorhomes usually sleep 4-8. Bigger rigs often sleep 6-10, some even 12!

CANADA FX DEBT-C$ extends retreat as crude prices fall

(Adds fresh comment, closing figures, details)
    * Canadian dollar at C$1.2576, or 79.52 U.S. cents
    * Bond prices higher across the maturity curve

    By Solarina Ho
    TORONTO, Feb 23 (Reuters) - The Canadian dollar weakened for
the fourth straight session on Monday against a strong U.S.
dollar, hurt in large part by another slide in oil prices.
    The latest decline followed Friday's retreat after domestic
retail sales data for December fell more than
    Crude prices, which more than halved between June and
January, retreated on worries of excess crude supply. U.S. crude
stocks, which are already at record highs, are expected to build
in the coming months. The pace of the U.S. rig count decline,
which helped provide some price support earlier, was also
slowing. Canada is a major exporter of oil.
    The Canadian dollar briefly recouped losses after the
Financial Times quoted the Nigerian Oil Minister and OPEC
president as saying the country might call for an OPEC
extraordinary meeting in the next six weeks or so if prices fell
further. But analysts said it will likely fail without Saudi
Arabia's support.
    "What that definitely shows is that oil is still a very key
and important driver for the Canadian dollar," said Rahim
Madhavji, president of commercial foreign exchange dealing firm,
    "What obviously didn't help was the poor retail sales that
came out last week."
    The Canadian dollar finished the session at
C$1.2576 to the greenback, or 79.52 U.S. cents, softer than
Friday's close of C$1.2546, or 79.71 U.S. cents.
    Looking ahead, investors will focus on a speech and press
conference by Bank of Canada Governor Stephen Poloz on Tuesday
for any guidance on whether the central bank will cut interest
rates again at its rate announcement next week.
    The bank stunned markets in January with an unexpected rate
cut, and markets are currently pricing in a 76.9 percent chance
of another cut when it announces its decision on March 4.
    "They want to take a pre-emptive approach, they want a
weaker loonie, they can make that happen. All the cards are in
the hands of Poloz and the Bank of Canada, they're calling all
the shots," said Madhavji.
    Investors will also be watching testimony by Federal Reserve
Chair Janet Yellen on Tuesday, where she will deliver the U.S.
central bank's semi-annual monetary policy report to U.S.
    Canadian government bond prices were higher across the
maturity curve, with the two-year up 2.5 Canadian
cents to yield 0.388 percent and the benchmark 10-year
 up 63 Canadian cents to yield 1.359 percent.

Canada's Liberal government will present fiscal update -source

OTTAWA, Dec 5 (Reuters) - Canada’s new minority Liberal government will present a fiscal update and is aiming to do so before the Christmas break, although no date has been set, a government source said on Thursday.

The source, who requested anonymity given the sensitivity of the situation, gave no details. Governments traditionally deliver updates late in the year to provide fresh forecasts and sometimes to unveil planned fiscal measures. (Reporting by David Ljunggren Editing by Chris Reese)

The Trempe Inquest: 35 recommendations to reduce dog bites

The Trempe inquest – reducing dog bites

In April of 1998, eight-year-old Courtney Trempe was killed by a neighbour’s Bull Mastiff in Stouffville, Ontario. As a result of that inquest, a panel of jurors made 35 recommendations they felt would prevent or significantly reduce the number of dog bites/attacks. Take a look.

In as much as there has been consistent testimony throughout the inquest as to the benefits of the education of children, parents, dog owners and the public in general about appropriate behaviour toward dogs and responsible owner of dogs, which would serve to reduce the number of dog bite incidents, We the Jury, have a number of recommendations in this regard.

We the Jury,

  1. Recommend, that the Ministry of Education require all Ontario Boards of Education to implement a student education program in elementary schools for the prevention of dog bites and the better understanding of animal behaviour. It is our suggestion that the Department of Public Health be responsible for implementing this program by making regular visits to the individual schools.
  2. Recommend that the media (children’s television programming) include programs teaching young children recommended behaviour towards the treatment of dogs.
  3. Recommend that the media with each article about a vicious dog attack, print a small informative TIP from a recognized agency relative to the incident (i.e.: if approached by a strange dog, stand still, talk, back away).
  4. Recommend that all municipalities provide resources for an Education Officer to work in the community education both children and adults about responsible pet ownership and prevention of dogs bites.
  5. Recommend that inasmuch as infants and young children are a high risk category with regard to serious dog bite injuries, that the Ontario College of Family Physicians undertake to educate their members in this matter. Their responsibility would include the education of parents regarding the safeguarding of their children from dog bites and recognizing the danger of leaving children alone with any dog.
  6. Recommend that because veterinarians are well placed to educate dog owners in responsible ownership, we recommend that the Veterinarians’ Association advice their members to educate dog owners about dog bite prevention, dog behaviour and the benefits of neutering and spaying.
  7. Recommend that in order to educate dog owners, the Provincial Government consider the preparation of information regarding selection, training and responsible dog ownership. This information along with the distribution of the Dog Owner’s Liability Act should be distributed by the veterinarians and animal shelters to their clients.
  8. Recommend that a website be designed as a tool for better understanding and education for all dog owners (responsible ownership, government regulations, how to choose your pet, listing of breeders, agencies and associations and teaching children safe behaviour around dogs).
  9. Recommend that information about responsible dog ownership be provided with the purchase of dogs from breeders and pet store owners.
  10. Recommend that all dog owners be required to post a provincial standard sign indicating that a dog lives on the premises.
  11. Recommend that the Provincial Government and other interested agencies and municipalities promote ideas that foster public education like the proposed Dog Bite Prevention Week and that pamphlets be offered on one’s rights and responsibilities when it comes to pets.
  12. Recommend that all dog acquirers be required to take a course in pet ownership and responsibility.
  13. Recommend that veterinarians be trained with courses in animal behaviour and regularly update themselves in this area with recognized institutions in veterinary medicine and that a recognized questionnaire be developed by the Canadian Association to aid vets in identifying potential problems with the dogs or their owners.

Legislative changes

Testimony during this inquest has revealed that the present system of reliance on municipal bylaws of itself, is inadequate to safeguard the public in the matter of dog bites. There are problems regarding the enforcement of restraint orders from one municipality to another. There are also problems regarding the process of implementation of restraint orders and lack of uniform terminology. In order to discourage irresponsible dog ownership and to provide thorough and equal protection of the public across the province as a whole from a dog who has bitten of attack, We the Jury

  1. Recommend that the Dog Owner’s Liability Act be amended to allow for ex parte hearings in which the court may order that an owner of a dog take steps for more effective control of a dog or may order that a dog be destroyed.
  2. Recommend that the Dog Owner’s Liability Act be amended to allow a judge to order that a dog be confined or restrained by a leash or muzzle when on the owner’s property or in public pending the determination of whether a dog is dangerous or pending any appeal of such a determination.
  3. Recommend that the Dog Owner’s Liability Act be amended to specifically identify, for the benefit of judges, methods by which dogs may be restrained. These methods may include leashing, muzzling or providing for a dog enclosure of a specified size.
  4. Recommend that the Dog Owner’s Liability Act be amended to provide for an automatic restraint order for dogs that are ordered by a judge to be destroyed.
  5. Recommend that fines under the Dog Owner’s Liability Act be substantially increased, since an economic impact can be an effective deterrence to irresponsible dog ownership.
  6. Recommend that persons who are found liable under the Dog Owner’s Liability Act be prohibited from owning another dog for a period of time designated by the court.
  7. Recommend that the Dog Owner’s Liability Act be amended to prohibit the training of guard dogs and attack dogs other than for the purpose of ownership by police or a registered security agency and that they only be housed in totally secured areas or taken out in the hands of an authorized and certified person.
  8. Recommend that in redrafting the Dog Owner’s Liability Act consideration be given to information contained in EXHIBIT #21 of the Inquest, as appended to this verdict.

Reporting, recording and research

We the Jury, find that information in many instances is incomplete, not standardized and difficult to access.

We the Jury,

  1. Recommend that there be an analysis of current reporting procedures and that there be implemented a centralized database by the provincial government. This should include a standardized format and compulsory requirement for the reporting of dog bites. This might be done through the Ministry of Health because of the health risk and cost.
  2. Recommend that there be in place a province-side system of record keeping that follows dog owners as they change addresses and as they move beyond the boundaries of a municipality.
  3. Recommend that municipalities keep active records relating to by-law enforcement, and particularly animal control for a period of time to be determined.
  4. Recommend that a toll-free number be accessible for all dog owners as a “help line” for information to assist the community with inquiries regarding concerns/incidents involving canines.
  5. Recommend that the system of licensing and registration of dogs provide a provincial wide tracking of any dog.
  6. Recommend that the tagging and licensing of dogs be incorporated with rabies injections produce a single dog tag, thus ensuring a more accurate, consistent and comprehensive licensing system.
  7. Recommend that the Provincial government develop a protocol which requires that a dog involved in a serious biting incident be given behavioural and physical testing by qualified individuals, prior to being euthanized in order to improve our knowledge of why such incidents take place.

Breeders, trainers and animal shelters

We the Jury,

  1. Recommend that the Provincial government consider a certification process for breeders, trainers and behaviourists as a requirement for obtaining a business license. This will allow the public a level of confidence when choosing a breeder, trainer, or therapist and provide for consistency of standards and techniques.
  2. Recommend that the province examine ways to regulate the selling of dogs in pet stores in order to limit the sale of improperly bred dogs (i.e. puppy mills).
  3. Recommend that the Canadian Kennel Club require a behaviour component in all confirmation classes to encourage positive traits in any given breed.
  4. Recommend that all animal shelters neuter or spay the dogs they release to the public for adoption.

Financial support

We the Jury,

  1. Recommend that the Province recognise the importance of dog bite prevention by providing adequate funding and other resources to address this problem in areas of education, enforcement, research and development.

Recommendations to the federal government

  1. Recommend that Health Canada create an agency to collect and analyse Provincial information relating to dog bites and attacks.
  2. Recommend that this agency work with other countries to obtain as full an understanding as possible about who, when and why dogs bite and how to prevent these bites.

Follow up

We the Jury, recommend that the Chief Coroner for Ontario publish a report on the status on these recommendations in one years’ time.

Lifting barriers to education

crowded Uganda classroom

Students listen in outside a crowded Uganda classroom.

Despite significant advances in creating greater access to education for girls and boys throughout the developing world, barriers still remain.

Many African countries, in particular, have made great progress toward the priority UN Millennium Development Goal of universal education by 2015.

Schools have been and are continuing to be built; and with public support for education ramped up, school fees and related expenses are increasingly within reach for many parents.

Demand exceeds supply
students learn outside

Holding class outside to accommodate the number of students who wish to attend.

Yet infrastructure, social, and other challenges persist.  With the rise in public support, new classroom blocks are needed to accommodate the number of children who want to attend school.  Books, maps, research and reference materials, blackboards, chalk – even pens and pencils – continue to be in short supply, and often not covered by public funding.

Facilities such as kitchens and latrines are also essential to ensure safe, clean and productive learning environments.  The availability of meals increases attendance and facilitates learning by giving children who might otherwise be hungry the incentive to come to school, and the energy to concentrate and participate while they are there.  Schools require kitchens, and kitchens require equipment, supplies and personnel.

Schools also need teachers, and attracting and retaining teachers in remote or impoverished communities that have schools (but may not have enough classrooms,  the necessary equipment and supplies, or teachers’ accommodations) can be extremely difficult.

Teachers affected, too
chad et teacher & student

This girl has the benefit of well-equipped classrooms and qualified teachers at CFTC partner CHADET-supported public school in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

The problem of teacher recruitment is particularly acute in Northern Ghana, and leaves many schools staffed by underqualified and sometimes unpaid volunteers.  Low-quality teaching is another barrier to students staying in school and learning while there.

The view from afar is sometimes a too-rosy one:  once governments step up to their responsibility to educate their country’s children, and commit resources and budgets to build schools, we may assume the battle is won. However, achieving real educational outcomes – children attending and graduating with the literacy, numeracy and other skills required to lead a prosperous life – may still be some distance away.

Sang School girls to boy ratio grade 6

At this school in Sang, Ghana, it is not uncommon to find boy-to-girl ratios of 5:2 in the older grades.

Students in impoverished areas, and especially girls, are still falling through the educational cracks.  For families who are food insecure and living at or below the poverty level, any  crisis – the failure of crops due to late rains, a parent’s illness, rising prices – often means that education is sacrificed for one or more children to put food on the table.  And when choices have to be made, it’s the older students, most often the girls, who lose out.

The barriers can be subtle

It’s in that context that what might seem like the most basic of resources – the availability of clean, well-maintained latrines, for example – can present subtle barriers to education that are the ‘straw that breaks the student’s back.’

Children who don’t have access to clean water and who aren’t taught proper hygiene practices like hand-washing with soap are more likely to be ill and absent from school.  Combined with lack of proper nutrition – and often, the schools are the one place they have a guaranteed daily meal – children’s susceptibility to preventable, waterborne disease increases dramatically. Disease also spreads much more rapidly in schools without proper hygiene and sanitation (and even with it, as most parents know).

huyslink latrine

This well-built and well-maintained school latrine has separate girls’ and boys’ toilet areas and is located near the classroom blocks for added safety. (CFTC community partner Huyslink, Entebbe, Uganda)

It is not uncommon to find schools that do not have access to latrines to have attendance rates a fraction of what they are in schools with latrines. The disruption in learning caused by frequent illness can derail children’s education quickly, demoralizing them and ultimately causing higher drop-out rates.

Ratio of girls to boys widens in higher grades

In many schools without proper toilets, children will leave the classroom to ‘do their business’ in nearby trees or bushes.  This poses a particular problem for girls, for whom modesty and safety become an issue.

“For many girls, the need to leave the classroom several times a day makes going to school anxious and unpleasant.  For older girls, menstruation in an environment where there is no toilet and no water causes embarrassment and further complicates matters.  And where toilet facilities are not available or located far away, there is a much higher risk of violence for girls.  The risks and hassle just aren’t worth it – and they drop out. There are so many barriers to girls’ education, toilets shouldn’t be one of them,” said Amboka Wameyo, CFTC’s Regional Program Manager – Africa.

Bukuta PS P1050061

Retention rates of boys and girls at Bukuta Primary School, Bugiri, Uganda. By the upper grades, girls’ enrollment is showing the tell-tale signs of attrition and typical discrepancy compared to boys.

In many schools in CFTC’s communities in Ghana, Ethiopia and Uganda,  the drop-out rate for girls at age 12 or so jumps to levels that can reach 100 per cent – typically much higher than the drop-out rate for boys. Early or forced marriage, long-distance walks to school that leave girls vulnerable to violence, abduction and rape, the burden of chores at home, and pressure to remain at home to care for younger siblings (especially where educating girls is not valued) present complex challenges for getting girls to school and helping them stay in school as they reach the teen years.

Since we know that for every year of schooling girls’ income increases by 15 per cent or more and their vulnerability to domestic violence, ongoing poverty, and lack of opportunity decreases, the importance of school latrines as a critical resource to support positive educational outcomes for girls becomes obvious.

Bubuzi PS. students collect water for cooking washing

These students outside Bubuzi Primary School in Bugiri District, Uganda, collect water for cooking, washing and drinking as a regular part of their school day.

It’s not enough just to build latrines, they must be located near enough to the classroom blocks that they are safe and convenient, clean, and well-managed.  Girls and boys must be provided with separate toilet facilities, too.  In Ghana, school latrines are locked during non-school hours as the school’s sanitation and water facilities are often the only ones in the water-scarce communities of Northern Ghana.  In many schools, the students themselves are given responsibility for cleaning and maintaining the sanitation facilities.

Clean, safe environments unleash education’s poverty-fighting power

Making access to education available to every eligible student in impoverished areas of the world is recognized by the UN’s Millennium Development Goals and by virtually every agency and country working towards these goals as a vital element for reducing hunger and poverty.  But it’s important to keep a focus on what might seem like some of the ‘smaller,’ certainly more subtle things:  environments that are clean, hygienic and safe so that children (and teachers) can attend school, stay healthy while there, and actually achieve graduation rates that make education the primary poverty alleviation strategy it has the potential to be.

2019 Draft Countdown No. 35-31: Yegor Spiridonov, Brett Leason, Nathan Légaré, Spencer Knight, Thomas Harley

Welcome to Canucks Army’s 2019 Draft Countdown. Over the next four weeks leading up to the draft, we’ll be rounding up scouting reports, quotes, and videos about our Top-100 prospects available. Here are aggregated profiles on 2019 Draft Countdown: Yegor Spiridonov, Brett Leason, Nathan Légaré, Spencer Knight, and Thomas Harley.

No. 35: Yegor Spiridonov

Date of birth: January 22nd, 2001

Nation: Russia

Position: Centre/Left Winger

Shoots: Right

Height: 6’2″ / 188 cm

Weight: 192 lbs / 87 kg

Profile: With the size and skill that fits the modern NHL, Spiridonov is a two-way centre that might need to work on his skating, but still has a high ceiling.

Sturdy two-way center with the reach of a giant octopus and a high compete level that makes him a difficult player to prepare for. Spiridonov is a natural center who began the season flanked by fellow 2019 draft prospects Dmitry Sheshin and Pavel Dorofeyv, and the trio clicked to the tune of two to three combined points per game. Both Dorofeyev and Spiridonov were ultimately promoted to Mettalurg for a trial by fire, simply because they proved to be to good for the MHL. Spiridonov, however, was the line’s driving force, using his size, reach and excellent anticipation to create havoc on the forecheck and during board battles. His straight-line speed is slightly above average and he has a short, wide stride, but he has shown to be able to pull away in open ice. His turns and pivots are sharp and he can move well laterally.

Spiridonov’s active stick comes in handy during the penalty kill, not only for consistently keeping it in lanes, but also for picking off passes and transitioning to attack mode. He is a very good passer, but his assists come more from hard work in the corners or mucking and grinding near the net rather than set-ups of the fancy variety. He also can finish from just about anywhere, especially with his snapshot or wrister, and occasionally plays the role of a net-front presence thanks to his ability to tip home shots well away from his body. Spiridonov is dominant on faceoffs in any zone, and he can be entrusted to support his defenders either below the circles, in the crease or behind the net. He has a strong upper body and can lean or one-arm shove opponents off balance, but he does so in a clean, disciplined manner. — Steve Kournianos

No. 34: Brett Leason

Date of birth: April 30th, 1999

Nation: Canada

Position: Right Winger

Advertisement - Continue Reading Below

Shoots: Right

Height: 6’4″ / 193 cm

Weight: 201 lbs / 91 kg

Profile: A late bloomer, Leason has had his breakout season after passing through the draft twice already. A big, powerful skater that has the hands to score goals.

Advertisement - Continue Commenting Below

The third-year draft-eligible was an explosive player for Prince Albert this season. His skating is powerful, and his in-close skill makes him a consistent scoring threat. — Chris Peters

He can score effectively thanks to his quick release, he’s got quality vision that allows him to set up teammates, and he’s dramatically improved his skating over the last season or so — Hannah Stuart

No. 33: Nathan Légaré

Date of birth: January 11th, 2001

Nation: Canada

Position: Right Winger

Shoots: Right

Height: 6’0″ / 182 cm

Weight: 201 lbs / 91 kg

Profile: The 45-goal scorer in the QMJHL, Légaré has the physicality to crash the net and get his goals from in tight.

Légaré has taken a step away from that traditional mold. He doesn’t have the size or strength to truck towards the net with consistently positive results at the QMJHL level, so he has adapted to a style with less of that physical element while still managing to put his finishing skills to good use. The downside of that change is that Légaré now has an increased reliance on his teammates to get the puck to that net front area for him, since he struggles to do it himself. — Sam Happi

No. 32: Spencer Knight

Date of birth: April 19th, 2001

Nation: United States

Position: Goaltender

Catches: Left

Height: 6’3″ / 191 cm

Weight: 198 lbs / 90 kg

Profile: Rated as the top goaltending prospect in this draft class, Knight uses his extreme athleticism and power to limit opposing chances. He’s attending Boston College next season.

Knight is a big specimen, standing at 6’3” and weighing 200 pounds. He’s athletic, calm, poised, technically sound, excellent with his rebound control, and communicates well with his teammates on the ice. He has most of the qualities you look for in a starting goaltender, from technique to his mental approach.

What distances him from his peers is his overall intelligence on the ice. He brings a comprehensive and effective game on a nightly basis. He isn’t overly flashy, and that is a good thing. He has a solid foundation all based on his stellar positioning and the athleticism to get to the more precise shots he faces.

He has powerful lateral strides to cover the bottom of the net, and an excellent butterfly stance. He doesn’t flop in his crease and is always square to the shooter.

With his size, he’s able to fight through traffic to spot loose pucks and can control his rebounds effectively to limit second chances for the opposition. His stature also makes him an intimidating presence for shooters, who are given little to aim for. He naturally reduces shooting angles, and with his already sound technique he makes quite the wall. — David St. Louis

No. 31: Thomas Harley

Date of birth: August 19th, 2001

Nation: Canada/United States

Position: Defence

Shoots: Left

Height: 6’3″ / 190 cm

Weight: 192 lbs / 87 kg

Profile: The very mobile defenceman excelled on a mediocre Mississauga Steelheads team this past season. He has the tools to be a very effective NHL skater.

A strong skater with good mobility, Harley is offensive-minded but can be effective on both ends of the ice. He still has a lot of potential to unlock. — Chris Peters

An efficient and play-driving defender with good size and speed. He not only accepted a larger role with Mississauga this year, but he’s also thrived with it. — Cam Robinson

  • j2daff

    harley at 31? wow that’s the lowest I’ve seen him anywhere in recent rankings. Considering he is often ranked in the top 15 and in the top 3/4 dman, ahead of guys like soderstom and york this is very questionable. If he is there at 31 Benning sure as heck better be looking to trade up. The only knock is that he is a LHD rather than a RHD….

    Also this is the first time in months I’ve seen Knight ranked outside the 1st round.

  • J-Canuck

    I agree seeing Harley that low is a shock.

    Hopefully Honda or Lassi Thompson will be around for the Canucks 2nd round pick. The depth of the draft should allow GMJB to fill out future 2nd/3rd pairings.
    Quinn Olli and Jett look to be a good solid foundation.

  • El Kabong

    The second round is going to be very interesting this year. Hopefully we pick up a good defence prospect but I would have trouble not taking Spencer Knight if he’s still on the board.

  • rediiis

    With Peyton Krebs tearing his achilles tendon this week and having surgery Friday. How far could he drop? Could it be to the 2d round Canucks pick?

    Some team will pick up Knight in the 1st.
    Harley is interesting.

    • Jabs

      I doubt he would drop that far, maybe out of the top ten but maybe just a few places if at all.

      I remember the Canucks once drafting a player on crutches. JJ Daigneault stumbled to the draft table and I thought, that’s so Canucks.

      Krebs showed up to meet Canucks brass sporting a walking boot which was viewed as a character move and I would still welcome Krebs at ten into the fold.
