Free agency on ice

by Dan Bilicki In: Ice Hockey

Nothing really gets on my nerves more than huge stories about where free agents will go followed by the target quickly re-signing with their previous team. That’s essentially what happened with the Sedin twins and the Canucks yesterday. Weren’t the twin Swedes supposed to test the waters of free agency? They didn’t even field offers from other teams! Well, when the two of them disparaged the thought of being broken up, it made it very difficult for them to find a team with the kind of cap space it would take to bring home them both. And how bad does Daniel feel knowing he’ll always make the same as his slightly inferior brother?

Well, it looks like the Chicago Blackhawks won’t be winning the Stanley Cup for the next 12 years. For roughly $62.4 million, they’ve landed Marian Hossa, who effectively cursed the Red Wings this past final and the Penguins the year before. Good luck furthering that Cup drought Chicago.

Marian Gaborik has signed with the New York Rangers. Let’s have the closest hospital to MSG ready itself for a wild ride with this guy. A light wind can knock him over and potentially blow out his knee.

Signing a 32-year-old defenceman – who will never be a top guy – to a seven-year deal may not have been the best idea for supposedly cash-strapped Tampa Bay Lightning. Mattias Ohlund isn’t the type of guy who will dig them out of the cellar.

Any time you can sign a defenceman coming off an 11-point season to five year, $4.5-million per year deal, you do it. Maybe Brian Burke isn’t a genius. He also gave a fourth liner a four year, $4-million deal.

The Montreal Canadiens have started their retooling after a tumultuous 100th season. By signing Brian Gionta and Mike Cammalleri, one thing is for sure, the Habs will be scoring a lot more goals next season.

And, finally, somebody actually wanted to move to Edmonton. It’s quite surprising actually. Who would voluntarily want to live there?

Hawkesbury & Pittwater

Refuge Bay

From Lake Macquarie, we picked up one of Tom’s sailing buddies Peter early in the morning and headed south to the Hawkesbury River. Not long into the trip the wind became confused, making it difficult to weave our way around all the gargantuan ships that were waiting their turn to enter Newcastle Harbour. From a distance we saw some whales swimming past with their tails waving hello in the air. But soon we had an even more amazing greeting as we were passing a ship whose crew were all out on deck watching the spectacle. No, the spectacle wasn’t us, but a whale probably less than 50 metres from us that fully breached in the air and came crashing down creating a massive wave that we surfed all the way to the Hawkesbury. Okay okay, maybe the wave and surfing have been a little embellished, but the whale DID fully breach next to us! Continue reading

Cruising Lake Mac

In total we spent 11 nights in Lake Macquarie. On the days that it rained we baked cookies, read books and watched movies, but thankfully we had more days with sunshine than with rain. On the long weekend we invited some of Tom’s sailing buddies over to test out our old girl, Makroro. We got lucky with the weather and had beautiful sun and some fantastic wind. I learnt a lot that day. I didn’t know our Macky-Ro was capable of the things she did that day. Unlike me, these guys really know how to sail! Our top speed that day I think was 8-9 knots – we absolutely flew like the wind – and heeled over until our rail was touching the water, to which I couldn’t stop myself from letting out just a small squeal. Let’s just pretend it was a squeal of sheer joy instead of terror. It was great having these guys out on the boat, we both really learnt a lot about how to sail Makroro to her full potential.

Newcastle to Lake Macquarie

Two Sundays ago we’d planned to sail south from Newcastle to Lake Macquarie only a couple of hours sail away. As boat life tends to go, those plans didn’t quite stick and we had to postpone. Later on that week we woke late on what turned out to be a stunning Thursday morning and decided we’d quickly make those plans happen and set sail with some help from Tom’s Dad. Continue reading

Linksys WRT54G v8: Ifos Fail, Wireless Bridge Win!

November 18, 2009 | 1 Minute Read

Pushing on with OpenWRT as a framework on which to build an Ifos server/master control program, I popped down to the local Goodwill to scrounge a cheap router. I new they had a pile of them, having donated a few myself.

I guess a lot of people had the same idea, though, because pickings were slim—nothing but some ancient Cisco 678 ADSL modems. My old Netgear equipment had evidently found a home.

In the final stages of my fruitless search, I moved aside a Realistic wireless intercom system, lifted an old dictaphone control pedal, and there sat a new-in-box Linksys WRT54G. If you didn’t know, that’s just about the perfect platform for OpenWRT. Oh, and it was $4.99.

Linksys WRT54G

Linksys WRT54G

As the title of this post implies, however, it was not to be. Unfortunately for me, I had found a v8, which OpenWRT’s wiki specifically lists as “unsupportable.” (Turns out it doesn’t have enough memory.) The man is always trying to push you down. Some would see that $5 as sunk cost and move on, but I figured, “Heck, it’s gotta be good for something.”

Long story short, OpenWRT may require at least 4MB, but dd-wrt will run in only 2MB. A quick flash and a bit of configuration yielded an awesome wireless client bridge for Angie’s detached studio. Now she can connect at full speed, instead of degrading to 1Mb in competition with all our neighbors’ networks.

My only real issue was easily fixed: dd-wrt seems to be very picky when it comes to the browser you use to configure it. It failed repeatedly with Safari on my Mac, but worked fine when I switched to IE on a PC (many posts refer to this problem, suggesting the IE work-around). For a brief-but-informative tutorial on configuring the bridge, see DD-WRT Intro to repeater Bridge. His accent alone makes me happy.

• Testimonials Can Increase Your Web Traffic

    We've all seen and read product testimonials. They're a very valuable tool for merchant salesand can often tip the scales in determining a customer's decision to buy. But testimonialsoffer another superb benefit. It's the benefitto you and your marketing strategy.

    When I'm on a site offering a product or serviceI like to click on customer testimonials because they are generally short and easy to read. Peopletypically point out exactly what they like about a product and how they used it to their benefit. Testimonials come from real users, they're not some ad written by the company.

    Now, let's take the testimonial concept and thinkabout it as a marketing strategy for you and your business.

    Website testimonials describe how buyers feel about the products they have purchased and used. If you, asa buyer, offer your testimonial with your name andwebsite address this now becomes a very valuable marketing tool for you. It will expose you and yourbusiness to everyone looking at that merchant's website. If the merchant site happens to be a well-known site offering a high demand product, this could mean huge exposure for you.

    Note that many merchant sites will display your websiteaddress but will not put an actual link to it. While it's ideal to have a link to your site it's not always necessary. I often investigate sites of testimonialgivers whether there is a link attached or not. As longas your website address is displayed, that is goodenough.

    Testimonials don't only need to be addressed to merchants you buy from. You should also send your testimonials to ezines or free online services thatyou use. Send them in the form of complimentary notes. Compliment their products or services and describe how you find them useful. Websites interested inboosting sales will often use them and you aremuch more likely to get printed if you are delivering a compliment.

Fighting in Saskatchewan Hockey

posted by SK Brain Injury    |   March 5, 2012 12:32

There were four fights in a recent game between the Saskatoon Contacts and the Beardy’s Blackhawks, midget-league hockey teams composed of 15-, 16- and 17-year-olds. The first two were spontaneous, rising out of collisions. The players struggled chaotically to tear each other’s helmets off and flailed away.

The second two were what are known as appointment fights.

The officials stood back and watched as the players dropped their gloves and approached each other. They bowed their heads, putting their foreheads together. They unfastened each other’s chin straps — removing your own chin strap is prohibited— and took off each other’s helmets. They backed away and nodded. Then, in a flash, they were together again, raining bare-fisted blows on each other, just like the fighters in North America’s professional hockey leagues.

The officials did not intercede until the players, spent, had fallen to the ice.

Josh Uhrich, 16, was the Contacts player in the second fight of the game. He later emerged from the dressing room while the game was still going on with a small nick inside his lip and talked casually with his mother and grandmother in the bleachers.

“It’s not like I want him to fight,” his mother said. “But I knew if he did, I wanted him to do well.”

A growing body of scientific studies has begun to reveal the risk of long-term cognitive damage that can be sustained in hockey. The issue gained attention last year when Derek Boogaard, an N.H.L. enforcer who died in May at 28, was found to have had chronic traumatic encephalopathy, a progressive brain disease caused by repeated blows to the head. The brains of three other former N.H.L. players have been examined posthumously, and all three were found to have the disease.

Even as some youth hockey officials advocate more stringent rules against fighting, it remains a proud tradition in places like Saskatchewan. The children who dream of playing in the N.H.L., and the parents who want to help them make those dreams come true, are convinced that fighting is an integral part of the game.

“You could get hurt falling out of bed,” said Kelly Fiske, the father of Bryce Fiske, a 14-year-old player for the North East Wolfpack, one of the province’s leading bantam teams. “It is what it is.”

‘He Was Chirping Me’

“You get one free fight,” said Ross Hnidy, 15, of the Contacts, a first-place team at the top tier of midget-level hockey. Hnidy was explaining the rules governing fighting at the midget level — one fight per season is allowed, and any fight in the last 10 minutes of a game brings an automatic suspension.

“I fought last game,” Hnidy said. “I hit this guy in the corner and he was chirping me coming out, so I turned around and we just went.”

At the bantam level, players wear cage face masks, and fighting is punishable by ejection and an automatic suspension, so fights are rare and swiftly broken up by officials. The next level is midget. Players still wear cages, and fights are also punished by an automatic ejection. But a player can have one fight without getting a suspension, so scraps, though still rare, do happen.

Next is junior hockey, for 16- through 20-year-olds, with 15-year-olds allowed to play in as many as five games on call-ups from their midget teams. In the second tier of junior, the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League, a player can fight six times before earning an automatic suspension and a fine for the team, so there are plenty of altercations — about a fight every other game, on average.

But at the top level, the Western Hockey League, the rules are closer to those of the N.H.L., and a player can pretty much fight as much as he likes as long as he limits it to no more than two a game. The W.H.L., known as a haven for tough players, is where Boogaard and many other fighters made their names.

Hnidy was one of three Contacts players called up this season to the W.H.L. As under-age players, they have to wear cages and so were off-limits for fighting. But next season, at 16, the cages come off if they are in the W.H.L.

“Definitely in the W.H.L., I wouldn’t be scared to fight,” Hnidy said. “I go to the gym sometimes, do the punching bag. I do some boxing. I might as well prepare for it.”

On a recent Sunday at their rink in Saskatoon’s southern outskirts, the Contacts were playing the Blackhawks, a team from Duck Lake, 50 miles north. The Blackhawks had Ryan Pilon, a 15-year-old defenseman who is good enough to have played this season in the W.H.L. and for Canada’s youth team. He had not fought since the pee-wee level and was “definitely not” going to take boxing lessons, but he said he was looking forward to fighting in the W.H.L.

“I want to get the first one out of the way,” Pilon said. “I kind of like that side of the game. I hope they don’t cut down on it.”

Question of Respect

Fighting is on the decline, and some in the sport contend the game is changing. Players who serve no purpose other than fighting, commonly known as goons, are disappearing. This season in the N.H.L., the number of fights is down 15 percent compared with last year at this time. The W.H.L., however, still averages about one fight per game — similar to last season’s rate.

Here in Saskatoon, four players on the Blades, the city’s W.H.L. team, have been injured in fights this season. But public opinion appears to be firmly in favor of preserving fighting.

“When you eliminate the opportunity for players to quote-unquote defend themselves, there’s significantly more stickwork, significantly more bullying or verbal abuse, where a player knows if he does something he can get that other player out of the game,” said Kelly McClintock, who as general manager of the Saskatchewan Hockey Association is in charge of amateur hockey in the province.

Like most fathers of players on the Wolfpack and other teams, he played in an era when there was less protective gear.

“I’m 50,” McClintock said. “It was only in my last year of minor hockey that you had to wear a full face mask. Till that point, I was never called as many names as I was in that year. People feel pretty brave behind a face mask. The year before, if someone called you something, you’d punch him in the face. I believe there was a lot more respect in the game back then than there is today.”

McClintock said he enforces the strict antifighting rules at the bantam level. But he said he would like to remove face masks at that level.

“Put the half-visor on,” he said. “Now all of a sudden you’re not as brave, and there’s a lot more respect in the game.”

Things Are ‘Different’

The Wolfpack’s players come from throughout northern Saskatchewan, but the team is based at the Northern Lights Palace in Melfort, a city of 5,000 located 100 miles northeast of Saskatoon.

Across the street from the Palace is the city’s old arena, where Boogaard, at age 15 and playing for another Melfort team, became enraged and went into the opposing team’s bench, throwing punches. The outburst impressed scouts from the W.H.L.’s Regina Pats, who moved to add Boogaard to their roster.

“Things are a lot different now,” said Darren Seaman, the Wolfpack’s coach.

Seaman, whose son Caleb is a top prospect on the team, has had a no-fighting rule in place all season.

“When you fight in bantam hockey, it’s a glorified wrestling match,” Darren Seaman said. “In bantam, with the masks on, don’t waste my time. You’re going to get a suspension no matter what if you throw a punch, so why go? Not like in the W.H.L., where they touch their heads together and take off each other’s helmets. That’s a scrap.”

Still, Seaman considers himself old school. He played junior hockey in Saskatchewan, and an older son, Tyrel, is a center with the Brandon Wheat Kings of the W.H.L. and is expected to go in the first three rounds of the next N.H.L. entry draft.

Despite his no-fighting rule, Seaman said that for older age groups, fighting is needed to govern hockey. “If you take it right out, it’ll change the game,” he said.

Bryce Fiske, a smallish defenseman on the Wolfpack, said he had no problem with fighting.

“It doesn’t really scare me — I’ve done it a couple times this year and I did it once last year,” he said. He was suspended twice this season.

Fiske is an example of the commitment young players make to hockey. He lives in La Ronge, an isolated community a three-hour drive north of Melfort, which makes going to practice twice a week difficult. Since he was 9 months old, his family has housed players for La Ronge’s junior team. Next season he will play on a top-tier midget team in Tisdale, 25 miles east of Melfort. He will board with a family there.

“To me he’s not the average 14-year-old boy — he’s very passionate, very committed,” his mother, Tracy, said. Was she worried about him fighting if he made it to the W.H.L.?

“You don’t want him to ever get hurt, but I worry more because he’s 14 and he’s going to move from home,” she said. “But when it does happen, you hope that he can take care of himself. You hope he doesn’t get hurt, and that he doesn’t hurt anybody else.”

Seeking Character

The Wolfpack recently played in Warman, a town of subdivisions just outside Saskatoon. Scouts from nearly a dozen W.H.L. teams were at the rink to see the top prospects and interview them and their parents.

“I drove a thousand miles to get here,” said Colin Alexander, director of player personnel for the Seattle Thunderbirds, as he wrote down players’ names and numbers on a clipboard.

Dale McMullin, director of scouting for the Regina Pats, was asked about Fiske.

“You’re talking about a character player,” McMullin said. “He’s got battle. He’s a hard-nosed kid.”

If another young player emerged with Boogaard’s skill set — a fighter with little scoring ability — would he be snapped up?

“Society has changed in the last 20 years,” Alexander said.

Another Regina scout, Graham Newton, said W.H.L. scouts were no longer looking for pure enforcers.

“You look for the compete level, and you look for the player who is fearless, too,” Newton said. “The terminology is throwing snow — if someone is coming to hit you, you stop short and throw snow. I’m looking for the player who can accept the body check, who has a little pushback, who shows he’ll stand up for his teammate. Not necessarily someone who’ll drop the mitts, but you look for the toughness, the fearless play — that’s what you want in a real hockey player.”

The Wolfpack lost, 4-0, to the Sask Valley Vipers. Before the players got back into their shirts and ties and headed to their chartered bus for the ride to their Saskatoon motel, McMullin, Alexander and other scouts talked to them and their parents. Would their sons be willing to go to Seattle, Victoria, Kelowna and other far-flung locales to play in the W.H.L.?

The answer was always yes.

Few players were thinking about American collegiate hockey, where there is no fighting.

Part of the Game

Tristan Elder, a tall and thin 14-year-old, is one of Fiske’s teammates and a top player for the Wolfpack. He lives near Kinistino, a town of 700 with little more than a grain elevator and a gas station, just like many other towns spread far apart along the two-lane prairie highway. Visitors often miss the gravel turnoff that leads to Elder’s house, so his father drives to the road in his pickup with the flashers on to show the way.

Elder has been playing hockey since he was 3. If he continues to progress, in about a year and a half he will probably join a club in the W.H.L.

“This is what we worked for our whole life,” said his father, Derek. “We’ve always been trying to get to the next level, playing summer hockey, driving to tournaments in Edmonton, Calgary, Fargo.”

If Tristan Elder must fight when he reaches the W.H.L., he will be ready.

“Definitely we’ve been talking about fighting,” Derek Elder said. “Tristan’s a left-hander. It’s an advantage because if you grab the guy’s right arm with your right arm, you’re swinging with your left and you’ve got his dominant arm.”

Derek Elder played junior B in Saskatchewan in the late 1970s. Unlike his son, a wing who grinds in the corners and scores a fair number of goals, Derek was a defenseman.

“I was the mean one,” he said. “I used to fight lots as a kid, whether it was on the ice or off the ice.”

Now he says he will help his son prepare for what is inevitable if he makes the W.H.L.

“I’ve got a good buddy that I played a little bit of rec hockey with — he was drafted into the W.H.L. for fighting, basically, and he told me that he would help out with Tristan a little bit with the fighting part of it — balance, some pointers,” Derek said.

“I’ve been thinking that in the summer it wouldn’t hurt to put him into boxing, how to block, where to strike, know those striking spots ...,” Derek added.

His son finished his sentence: “So you can take the guy down.”

Mystery solved Monday

The story behind the Mini-Me photo.
After our friend Chloe went to the Bridge aided by the dreaded 'C'.
A new dog was added to their family--free from a classified Ad.
Whisky is a supposed black labrador X
 (crossed with something that has a beard)
She had had a poor start to life, was starved and ignored.
However, sweet-natured.  She wasn't too sure about all the dogs
at the river and stayed close to the humans, but wasn't aggressive.
After her first weekend at the river, she refused to come again.
she produced two puppies (on HER birthday)
As she came off a property, and the pups are so large, we think they may be part Bull Arab.
This past weekend, they came to the river to meet all the dogs.
(Really, they are too young for that.--5 weeks)
Pirate, the mini-Roxy, joined right in with the big dogs.
He is very confident.
Bandit, the masked pup, (now called Pugsley because he is more cautious) took awhile to move away from the basket.
They are being weaned and will probably be surrendered to
the RSPCA for rehoming.
The RSPCA will microchip them, give them all their needles, spay them and vet all potential owners.
Here are some puppy photos.

Just arriving

Roxy meeting Pirate

Demi, Dui and Roxy giving them the Sniff Test

Tired pups taking a rest near their human's feet.
Note: we don't have room for another pup--no matter how cute they are!

  1. Such a couple of cutie pies. We understand how you can't add another but it sure would be fun.

  2. Lady loves the look of puppies - she lights up in a way that she doesn't around human babies, but she knows she does not have the energy for another puppy. She said the first 3 in her life (especially her Hailey) zapped it all!

  3. You need to get some audio. I'm a parrot and need to prepare for "Talk like a Pirate" day.

  4. They are really adorable -- And I'm with HER, no puppies for us either, no matter how cute they are or how much they need a good home -- WE SHALL RESIST!! :-)!!

  5. OMD!!!!! SOOOOO CUTE!!!!! Ma was just thinkin'....another puppers?? Wowsa, SHE is brave! BOL!!! I just can't believes how much Pirate looks like Roxy!!!!!
    Ruby ♥

  6. oh they are so cute and loveable... all our best wishes to the mama and we hope that all will find a super furever home...

  7. my heart melted both times I went through the slide show. I LOVE PUPPIES! ad these are the kind I love... after my heart melted I read the story and now it is breaking for them going to a shelter... awesome photos

  8. if I had the mother I would keep the puppies.. just saying

  9. Oh my is amazing HOW very much they both look like Roxy.
    It will be fun to watch them grow.
    I'm very sorry the family lost their Chloe...
    Hugs Cecilia

  10. Oh, our Mom would take that little Pirate. We know she needs a puppy to love.

  11. What grand wee pups. We do hope Pirate and Pugsley find wonderful homes. (We think Pirate especially might be a bit of a handful).

  12. What adorable puppies, we bet they find wonderful furrever homes!
    Rosy, Jakey & Arty

About Sandra Siciliano

Sandra SicilianoAs a life-long resident of Newton, I have a deep appreciation for and knowledge of the city and the towns that surround it.  I grew up in Newton Centre, then moved to West Newton with my husband Joe where we raised our four children.
I choose to work in Real Estate because I very much enjoy all aspects of the industry.  As a Realtor my goal is to service my client completely and to provide a result that is 100% satisfactory.
This requires a thorough understanding of the markets in which I work and the ever changing dynamics that impact these markets.  When working with clients, whether buyers or sellers, my desire is to make the best match.  When working with a buyer I work very hard to understand what you want and need in your property search and then to match it to what is available in the market.  When working with a seller it is my job to market your property extensively and with excellence.  Then I must work to find the most qualified buyer, both financially and with conditions, to give you the most satisfactory result.
In all transactions I work hard to gain and maintain the trust of my clients and my colleagues in the industry.  Trust in a working relationship on both sides of the deal is critical. After that, knowledge of the area and the ability to move in transactions decisively and with confidence are essential.  At Dwell360 I work with a team of people who you can trust and who have a depth of knowledge and experience in the Greater Boston Area.  It would be my pleasure to work with you.

Watch a special interview with Sandra Siciliano!

Customer Recommendations

Amy - Sold her condo in Newton

I can only say that the experience was great, you handled everything, kept me out of all the nonsense.
If anyone asked me to recommend a realtor, I would give your name in a heartbeat with this advice: "Listen to and take action on Sandy's advice, and you won't be sorry!"
Thanks again!!

Denise - Sold her condo in Newton

Sandy is very diligent and fastidious (coming at least a half hour before an open house to make sure the place is presentable), scrupulously honest and very pleasant and easy to work with. I pulled out of a deal to buy a house and she was great about it. I wouldn't consider using another agent in this area for either buying or selling a home.

The MacDonalds - Sold their home in Newton

After 60 years in our home, it was time to move to a smaller place. We were so blessed to have Sandy Siciliano as our agent.  She guided us with her skill as an agent, keeping us informed every step of the way. She knew the market and was able to price the house with fairness for both the buyer and seller.  She scheduled the showings with our convenience in mind. She was completely knowledgeable about all the rules of selling a property and made sure all was done in a legal and honorable way.  No detail was overlooked.  She left nothing to chance!  For us at ages 86 and 91, it was a painless experience.  We would highly recommend Sandy Siciliano to anyone.

Heather - Renter turned Home Owner

Sandy was tireless in finding us a rental property that served us well and allowed us to thrive for 18 months. Well in advance of the lease ending, Sandy reached out and helped us find the house of our dreams. She knew the market incredibly well and knew that schools were important. She worked tirelessly showing us houses in multiple towns, always keeping in mind the needs of my family and the quirks of the market. I always knew clearly her pros and cons of each property, and knew that we would never be steered toward or allowed to buy anything less than our dream home. Thanks to her careful personal attention and insights, she was able to intuit what was important to me and my family to find us a beautiful house at a great value in a neighborhood better than we had ever imagined. And beyond that, she was instrumental in guiding me to line up the help I needed in regards to finding a stellar mortgage provider, lawyer and home inspector. No step was neglected. My only regret is that I no longer get to wander through houses with her.

Kate - Bought her condo in Ashland

Thanks so much for your support, guidance and patience during my first home buying experience.  I am looking forward to making this Condo my home.  Thank you for everything you provided on this journey.

Laura and Justin - Bought their home in Needham

Working with Sandy was an absolute pleasure in searching for our new home.  We were continuously impressed by the level of service and dedication provided.  Throughout the entire process her experience and professionalism helped us to land our dream home.  Her industry knowledge helped us to be informed and educated buyers.  Without reservation we would recommend Sandy as a Realtor in the Greater Boston area.

Sarah and Jeff - Bought their condo in Newton, August

Sandy was more than a realtor for us: she was calm in the middle of several storms; encouragement when we got down after so much looking; and, most of all, the voice of reason at all times.  Her husband also makes great chocolate chip cookies.  We have recommended her to everyone we know since the day we closed (when she, quite literally, held our baby while we signed the documents for our new place in Newton).

The “Provably reasonable” term implies that the casino gives an available device to check the honesty of the result of a particular spin, card arrangement, or bones toss.

3. Register at a bitcoin online casino to play for genuine cash. The sign-up process is streamlined as contrasted and normal casinos that entrance fiat cash.
You don’t need to determine individual data like your genuine name, address, and different subtleties that can prompt divulgence of your character. After you have made a record and marked in, the casino opens access to genuine cash betting

4. Transfer BTC into your record and check that the assets have been credited to your casino balance

6. In case you experience difficulties or don’t have the foggiest idea where to discover answers, contact a casino bolster group through live talk or some other correspondence channel. Casinos, as a rule, have a few different ways for clients to connect with their managers.

Numerous bitcoin online casinos have devoted rules and bit by bit instructional exercises, including video controls, that help clients to purchase BTC, register a bitcoin wallet, and make an exchange to the casino.
So, clients are not turned hapless – there’s constantly an unequivocal FAQ segment or illustrative guidelines to bitcoin.

Bitcoin casino guests appreciate a lot of the best pokies, roulette tables, blackjack variations, baccarat, and different games conveyed by presumed top-positioned merchants, for example, NetEnt, Microgaming, Betsoft, Aristocrat and others. Assortments of games on offer are included to and refreshed a progressing premise so you can continue visiting your favorite gambling site and see new discharges pretty much without fail.

Live casinos give you real experience and full inundation into the casino air as though you were available at a land-based scene in Las Vegas or somewhere else.
Live dealer games offered at bitcoin casinos promptly acknowledge players of New Zealand who need to make BTC wagers.

Online bitcoin casinos have a couple of masters over customary online casinos that work with USD, NZD, EUR, and other fiat monetary forms. They are plot underneath:

1. Bitcoin casinos have quick enrollment and require no close to home subtleties. All you have to show is your real email address. With this in see, it is incredibly difficult to follow the genuine personality of a bitcoin casino client

2. Bitcoin casinos have an indistinguishable collection of games from typical casinos. On the off chance that you need to play NetEnt games, you can without much of a stretch do this by betting BTC. In the event that you are a blackjack fan, you will detect various tables that acknowledge bitcoin

3. Most (if not every) online casino have fast or moment times for bitcoin payouts. While it might take different monetary standards and budgetary instruments (VISA, Skrill, and so forth.) two to four days to move cash, bitcoins are pulled back very quickly

4. Some casinos have a bitcoin fixture. This is a sort of special and free giveaway of bitcoins at customary interims.
Free bitcoins are allowed to everybody who has entered a particular area and clicked a catch, or the giveaway assumes the type of a lottery where a predetermined number of enlisted casino clients are granted bitcoins. Anyway, BTC spigots can be a wellspring of some negligible cash.

5. Many bitcoin casinos offer rewarding rewards to be looked into in the accompanying section.

Numerous online casinos have an arrangement of rewards and advancements focused on bitcoin clients. When in doubt, new clients are welcomed at the casino with an invite reward or bundle.

Aside from new player rewards, casinos that acknowledge bitcoin offer different kinds of rewards, for example, reload rewards, no-store rewards, and cashback bargains. Every one of them is payable in BTC and includes betting in BTC.

I don’t write the same number of sentences in the story on each minute of the adventure. The sentences might be distributed like this:

picnic basketthe woodsgrandma

Let’s look at how interesting each part of the story is over time:

picnic basketthe woodsgrandma

If the storyteller were forced to match the pacing of the story with the amount of time each actually took, we’d have long periods of boring story.

Instead, the storyteller can stretch out interesting times and compress boring times to more evenly distribute interesting events:

picnic basketthe woodsgrandma

Let’s look at where the events occur on this distorted timeline:

picnic basketthe woodsgrandma

They’re much more evenly distributed.

Think about every story you have read and every movie you have watched. Most of them will stretch and shrink time by omitting or elaborating various details. They also use flashbacks and replays to further disconnect the time you experience from the time in the story.

Diagram showing the function mapping reader/player time to story time

We want to do this in many types of games.

In a game that directly tells a story, you can follow the technique used by storytellers. But what about more open ended games?

If you can’t stretch and shrink time, try to stretch and shrink space.

Let’s look at some games that stretch and shrink game maps.

Ultima IV-VII

Ultima 4 and 5 have a continental map that’s almost all wilderness. In Ultima 6, the towns were integrated into the world map. Surrounding areas were shrunk to make room for the towns. In Ultima 7, the towns grew even larger and boring parts of the wilderness shrunk even more. Here’s a rough sense of how that looked:

Ultima 4

Ultima 6

Ultima 7

If you want to see the actual maps, there’s a high resolution map of Ultima 4 from Nick Moore, and there are high resolution maps of Ultima 6 and Ultima 7 from Ian Albert. You can find some scans of the cloth maps that came with these games on Xe Dragon’s site.

Let’s look at the path from Trinsic to Britain. In Ultima 4, most of that time is in the wilderness, which I found relatively uninteresting in that game:

Ultima 4 and 5 solved this problem by having a separate map for towns. When you entered the town on the main map, you were taken to a more detailed map with the town. Ultima 6 and Ultima 7 solve the problem a different way, by changing the world map:

By stretching and shrinking the map, the Ultima series made the walk from Trinsic to Britain more interesting, but less realistic.

Skyrim and World of Warcraft

Ultima not only shrinks the repetitive areas between cities but also repetitive areas within cities. Most buildings have something interesting inside; other buildings are omitted.

The same is true in many other open-world games. Skyrim’s towns have very few people. Wowwiki says World of Warcraft’s Stormwind City has 200,000 residents. Walk around and you’ll see fewer than 100 buildings and people. Both games also shrink wilderness areas relative to cities. Stormwind City is as large as Elwynn Forest. Towns are much smaller than realistic towns would be; wilderness areas are extremely small compared to realistic counterparts.

Civilization and Age of Empires

We see this same pattern in conquest games, but it manifests differently. You’re not an adventurer walking across a map but you instead control military units walking around. Repetitive elements include wilderness, natural resources such as trees, military units, and town buildings. Each of these is reduced in size or number. A large army may consist of tens of “soldiers”.

Civilization also has a slowing of time. At the beginning of the game, a turn might mean 50 years. At the end of the game, a turn is only 1 year.

Transport Tycoon

In a transportation game the repetitive elements will be vehicles. A freight train in real life might have hundreds of cars but in Transport Tycoon will have fewer than ten. This makes cars easier to manage. A freight track might be 100 trains long; in Transport Tycoon distances between resources are shrunk so the track to train length ratio is much smaller than in real life. This also alters the balance for gameplay. Relative to real life, trains meet each other much more often. Double tracks and complex junctions are needed far more often than single track, making the layouts far more interesting and fun.

To ponder

Look at the player’s experience in your game. Identify the repetitive elements, both things the player has to look at and the things the player has to do. Shrink repetitive elements in time and/or space. Expand interesting gameplay elements to occupy more of the time and space. These changes will reduce realism but increase fun.

The storytelling analogy is great (and so are the supporting graphics!) One quasi-counterpoint, though: the best thing about the Elder Scrolls games is that the wilderness is NOT filler, nor is it tiny. Sure, maybe it's smaller than it would really be "to scale," but compared to most other CRPG's, there's a heckuva lot of wilderness in Skyrim relative to town.

And because you have to trek across a fair part of this wilderness to get to the next town, all kinds of great stuff happens: dungeon entrances discovered, dragon attacks, showdowns with roadside bandits, etc. etc.

I'm sure if you added up the units of dungeon in Skyrim they dwarf everything else, and that's directly to your point. But you gotta give the game some credit for solving the "wilderness is boring filler" problem NOT by just compressing miles of wilderness, but by figuring out how to seed relatively large tracts of "empty space" with serendipitous content.

Amit wrote at May 16, 2014 7:11 AM

Hi WabiWasabi, I agree, Skyrim makes wilderness more interesting. I'm unable to find a good scale to measure distances in the Skyrim maps, but thinking about towns, a village like Riverwood might be 500 meters long, and the distance between medieval towns should probably be at least 10,000 meters, or 20 Riverwoods long. I can't remember the distance between Riverwood and Whiterun but maybe it's enough.

I'm also thinking there are too few farms in Skyrim to support even the small population that it has, especially given the cold climate that would make agriculture difficult. is interesting reading

IceArdor wrote at May 19, 2014 9:51 PM

Come to think of it, any fun game needs to either compress the boring bits or make something happen to make filler not boring. Nintendo's Pokemon game series solved this with disproportionate scales (another reason why the screen was redrawn when entering a building or transitioning from filler to city) and battles in grassy fields (though that was often annoying). The special moves fly, surf, cut, dig, and surf, as well as the bicycle solved a lot of these problems too while still increasing total gameplay time.

The equity markets are performing poorly. Banks have fallen, and there is the threat that even more bad news could hit the financial sector as Citi becomes the latest target of speculation. People do not know what to invest in, and retirement accounts have been decimated. People, no matter what they are invested in, are expressing dismay and frustration over poor stock performance.

If you are invested in the markets and have not done so already, it may be time to do some soul searching, because like it or not, investments in the markets have boiled down to their simplest form. It all comes down to faith.

Do you have faith in an economic recovery?
Do you have faith in the credit markets easing up?
Do you have faith that consumers will once again feel good about spending?

Those basic questions need to be applied to any equity you are invested in, because these are the core issues that impact nearly everything that is going to happen. When you get to a specific company, you need to ask additional questions of yourself.

Do you have faith that management and the board are acting in your best interest? It seems that the question is simple, but you really should look as deeply as possible. Stocks are performing badly, but it is not unique to one specific company. Are the woes of your investment based on outside influence that are beyond the control of management? If you remove current management, who will replace them? If you vote down a board of directors, who will be at the helm? How long will it take to replace people? What will the impact be on the stock?

For investors in Sirius XM Radio, the annual meeting is coming in late December. Among the items to be considered are the Board of Directors, An authorization to increase the authorized shares to 8 billion, and a reverse split between a range of 10 to 1 – 50 to 1.

Investors are frustrated. That is clear. The question is whether the existing management and board have the capability to steer the course, and whether they have the tools and latitude to make things happen. There are strong arguments on both sides of the proposals, but in the end it boils down to your level of faith as well as what actions will be the most prudent.

Investors should ask questions, participate, and vote. They should also be as informed as possible when they make these decisions, and think about how their action would impact the company. Whether you are for or against certain proposals, you need to think about what transpires in the event that these things actually happen.

If you are against the current board nominees, that is fine, but you need to understand that the company will then be in a position where they need to fill the board seats. Who will those seats be filled by? Will the new board members be aligned with your goals and desires for the company? Are you prepared to have a time period of flux, where new board members get up to speed with the happenings at the company?

If you are voting against the additional authorized shares, that is fine. Have you considered what that actually means? No one likes dilution. Authorizing that number of shares is a scary proposition. The company is looking for breathing room, and flexibility in how they are responding to the current markets. What happens if there is no flexibility? Would this board, or a new board have their hands tied to an extent where their choices are limited?

If you are voting against a reverse split, that is fine. Are you prepared for delisting if the stock price does not get above $1.00. Yes, delisting would take time to process, and a company can appeal, but will even the very process of delaying a delisting impact the company? No one likes reverse splits either, but these are difficult times across the board, and it is in difficult times that difficult decisions need to be made.

It boils down to faith. How much faith do you have in current management? If your answer is that you do not have faith in them, what are your solutions? If you have no solutions on the table, then you need to think deeper.

Some would suggest that there will be time later to address these issues. That is true, but that would require a special meeting, which has costs. If you want the decision to be held off, in what time-frame do you propose these decisions be made? Will holding off on some of these decisions impact the equity? Will it hamper the ability of this, or any management and board to refinance debt, etc.

I think the involvement of shareholders is a wonderful thing. I think people asking questions is prudent. I have seen ideas about refinancing that are innovative and cutting edge, but I have yet to see anyone implement them in a way that takes things to the next level. I have seen people take a stance on certain items, but not think out the next few moves. I have seen people express their votes on certain items without even having heard the Q3 call. What is transpiring with satellite radio needs more than a knee jerk reaction. It needs deeper thought, and most of all demands that you look at you level of faith not just in SDARS, but in the economy as a whole.

Income Protection Insurance

Protect Money 258x164

When you feel healthy and successful you can feel invincible. It’s a nice feeling but have you ever thought about what you would do if you were unable to work for an extended period of time? Most of us don’t expect to need income protection insurance until we all of a sudden do. In this article, I discuss what income protection insurance is and the types of policy available.

Our ability to earn income is probably our greatest asset; however it’s very commonly taken for granted. As injury or illness could occur suddenly and at any time income protection insurance is something that should be carefully considered and treated like any other asset worth protecting. While ACC will cover a large number of injury claims, it is increasingly limited in its extent, and will not cover sickness.

In a nutshell, income protection insurance provides an income in the event of illness or injury that makes return to work impossible. It is suitable for anyone who relies on an income to meet living expenses.

There are two main types of income protection policy. The first is called Agreed Value Benefit, where you can provide financial evidence at the time of application to obtain an agreed monthly benefit. This means that this type of policy is not then financially assessed again at the time a claim is processed. The second type is called Indemnity or Loss of Earnings Benefit insurance which will be calculated based on the income you can provide you were earning prior to ceasing work.

There are a variety of options available as part of an income protection policy. As with all insurance your individual needs will be unique to your personal situation. If you don’t currently have income protection insurance or are unsure what your present cover includes contact me to arrange an appointment to discuss your options.

Shut Up and Give Me the Mic
By Dee Snider
May 2012

Page 129
"The formula I discovered... would be replicated by me, culminating but not ending with "We're Not Gonna Take It" My addiction to glitter-rock band Slade taught me all I needed to know about writing these types of songs."
Pages 236-7
"I'd been sitting on the chorus for "We're Not Gonna Take It" since 1979. I knew the hook was a killer, but try as I would, I could not come up with a suitable verse and B-verse (the second different part of a verse). I'm a huge fan of the English band Slade (as are many other prominent hard rock and metal bands) and their incredible rock anthems.
Most of you will know them best for the Quiet Riot smash hit "Cum On Feel The Noize" and follow up, "Mama Weer All Crazee Now." No, Quiet Riot didn't write those songs, Slade did.
Slade songs are usually uniquely comprised of a hook (catchy repeated melody and lyric) for the verse, a hook for the B-verse and a hook for... the hook. Jim Lea and Noddy Holder are amazing songwriters! "We're Not Gonna Take It" is a full-on Slade inspired romp. All of my anthems are. Thank you Noddy & Jim, for the inspiration and songwriting lessons. I couldn't have done it without you."

About Us :

We were born in March 2002. That makes us more than 15 years old now. Fifteen long years in mattress business. Sounds reasonable, doesn't it? But trust me, even a lifetime is less when it comes to learning and exploring new things in any field. Be it archaeological discoveries, mathematical research or the more humble mattress designing.It were the efforts and a propensity to learning that enabled us to provide our customers, not only the best mattress brands like Kurlon and Sleepwell, but help them choose the most suitable among them.

In the course of last fifteen years, we have learnt a lot. Rather, people, our clients, taught us a lot. From them we got to know that super soft mattresses make you wake up tired which led to our understanding that our spine needs firm support. It were they who informed us that regular foam or sponge could be uncomfortably warm in summer; that it takes time to get used to drastic changes in lifestyle like shifting from cotton mattress to a spring mattress. Every new person who comes to us looking for a bedding, teaches us something that actually becomes important knowledge for subsequent clients.

That exactly is our motto.
A conscious effort in acquiring Knowledge, Information and learning, in order to help people choose the most suitable product.
