This jambalaya was adapted from a recipe found on the internet. The original recipe calls for a Dutch oven; Since I do not have a Dutch oven or conventional oven, I have made adjustments for the equipment I have. I used a toaster oven and a 9 “diameter round glass casserole. Start by sautéing the meats and vegetables in a pot on the stove; you can use a skillet or anything with enough surface space to brown the meats. After cooking On the stove, all the ingredients are transferred to a casserole before going to the toaster oven.

The original recipe included ham and shrimp; I just used chicken and sausage to make it all fit. The first time I made this jambalaya, I used a whole cup of rice and a whole cup of chicken broth. Since then I have cut down on these two ingredients and it still produces a lot of rice.

If you don’t have Cajun seasoning on hand, you can substitute cayenne pepper for it or make your own seasoning mix using the instructions below. The following recipe makes about 3 teaspoons of Cajun seasoning. You can reduce the spices according to your preferences.

Many years ago, one of Hollywood’s most powerful movie producers proclaimed, “Don’t let writers have power!”

From: Current.com:

The writers seem to be unrecognized and underestimated by the general masses as a result of Hollywood attitudes. TV and movie fans are quick to congratulate actors on a beautiful performance, but forget that it couldn’t have existed without someone formulating the concept, etc.

A few years ago I wrote a comedy script and for a few years I tried to sell it with no luck. Some people in the movie industry liked it … but not the cigars! During this time, I tried to learn as much as I could about the screenwriting business, and what I did learn was pretty daunting news for the writer, etc.

One of the main things that irritated me was that once a writer sold the script to the studio, they no longer wanted it and he was not even allowed to be on set during production. The writer may or may not get the first rewrite of a script, depending on the contract. And I read several stories where the writer sold a script to the studio … and the directors, producers, and other screenwriters wrote and rewrote the script so many times that the original writer didn’t even recognize their script. The actors even jumped into action and offered two cents as well. Talk about frustration for the writer! If the movie is a success … credit goes to the director, producer, and actors! But if the movie is a bomb or a flop … the writer is to blame!

I also learned about age discrimination in Hollywood, and there is so much for everyone. There is a lot of selfishness and greed in Hollywood, so I decided to do something else with my script. I disassembled the script and used ideas from my website and articles. There is too much ugliness in Hollywood for me!

From: BRE Magazine.com:

Stevie wonder; Carol King; John Lennon; Smokey Robinson; Lionel Richie, etc. What do these people have in common? They are all accomplished composers … highly skilled in the art of creating the very foundation of our musical landscape. In today’s music scene, a group of different producers are called upon to shape the current musical offering and have been praised with more credit. The projects are driven by the producers and there is little respect for the creators of the project – the songwriters!

Like millions of people across the country, I have been to a few concerts in my day. I have seen very few singers or band members give credit to the author of the song, unless it is one of their own, etc. I’ve seen singers who don’t even introduce their band members to the audience. The singer is the center of attention and the large amount of money … and the songwriter usually gets the shorter part of the pencil, as usual.

Humor writers! Erma Bombeck was once quoted as saying that writing humor is 50 times harder than writing anything else. I agree! I’ve been in the humor business for over 50 years, so I think I know a bit about humor, and it will be the audience that will judge whether or not my work is fun!

How many late night talk show hosts would be a lot of fun without their army of humor writers, putting everything together behind the scenes? In the recent writers’ strike (2007-08), the live shows did not even go on the air, but were quickly replaced by reruns as soon as the strike began. And who makes so much money? The talk show host, of course! It’s easy to be funny when someone else writes the material. Comedy writers are never recognized or recognized. Are you kidding … do you recognize a writer?

From: Hope Is My Anchor.com:

“Our need is not to feel that writing has to be a career to be worth it … nor that it has to be prepared through formal study before it can be satisfying to the writer. If you feel you have an unrecognized talent for writing, or if you just love to write, and want to, my advice is to write. But write without ambition, pride … which makes you feel like it is a “waste” that will never be published. Write to communicate with someone, even if it is literally a person. It is not a waste to write beautiful prose or poetry for one person’s eyes only. ” Edith schaeffer

Funny or not … good writers are good storytellers, and I don’t care if you’re writing a poem; a piece of humor; or a technical article … you have to tell the story. The writer left the plans … the frame of the film; the song or the ad, etc. Because without the writer … there is not much to say!

Dr. Carol S. Dweck was challenged by her student to write a book about the results of years of her research study. Dr. Carol S. Dweck took the opportunity and wrote this book, “Mindset: The New Psychology of Success and How We Can Learn to Reach Our Potential” in the hope that it will help the common human to understand that life is what you do and not what you were given at birth. She has written in simple language giving examples of ordinary people like her and her students, artists like Picasso, athletes like Michael Jordan, the basketball player and John McEnroe the tennis player, Marina Semyonova the great Russian dance instructor and CEOs of different companies name a few. In the third paragraph of your introduction, write: “… you will learn how a simple belief about yourself … guides a large part of your life … In fact, it permeates every part of your life …” Thus, it draws the reader to the book, making it one of its real life examples as the reader finds himself in these examples.

Dr. Dweck presents the two types of mindsets, the fixed mindset and the growth mindset in the first section of the book. She writes how she learned from ten-year-olds that failure can be turned into a gift with the right mindset. By giving them difficult puzzles to work on, the children cultivated their intellectual abilities through effort and did not give up. These children became his role models in his search for whether human qualities are things that can be cultivated or are things curved in stone. Each person has a unique genetic endowment, but experience, training, and personal effort go the rest of the way.

Dr. Dweck’s twenty years of research has shown that the view you take on yourself profoundly affects the way you lead your life. She writes that if you believe that your qualities and features are set in stone and cannot be changed, then you have a fixed mindset. And if you believe that cherished qualities and traits can be developed and cultivated, then you have a growth mindset.

Fixed-minded people believe that an individual’s intelligence, quality, and traits are a fixed quantity that cannot be increased. If they are doing well in school, then they are smarter than others who are not doing well. If they do well in sports, then they are talented at birth. They spend time showing that they are better at the qualities assigned to them, just to show that they received a healthy dose and that they are not deficient. If something doesn’t work out for people with a fixed mindset, they always blame it on something else.

Growth-minded people work hard to do better every time. They don’t sit around and see their accomplishments as the end goal. There is always room for improvement in their minds. They don’t have time to sit back and see themselves as the best or better than everyone else. They don’t have time to sit back and think that they have a special talent. They are busy thinking about how they can improve it and what changes they can make if something expected did not go well. For them, if something doesn’t go right, it’s not a failure, it’s a challenge to find ways to make it happen.

In the second section of the book, Dr. Dweck takes us through her fixed mindset research journey and a growth mindset journey through various pairs of eyes. Showing how these two mindsets make or break people in your daily life. In individual sports, he gives an example of John McEnroe’s fixed mindset in tennis. He was a brilliant player who believed in talent, not effort, and who worked hard. When he didn’t win, he blamed something else. Like when he blamed the system for not liking the game more. He would not be held responsible. Micheal Jordan, on the other hand, has a growth mindset. If he missed a goal, he would go and practice for several hours trying to figure out why he had missed it. In team sport, the author gives an example of Couch John Wooden, who was tactically and strategically average, but won ten national championships. Coach Wooden, with a growth mindset, tells us he was good at getting players to fill roles as part of a team. He cared about the feelings of the players. Fixed mindset like the one coach Bobby Knight chose players for their talent. He was an excellent coach, but he used the dictator approach to win. The winners were short-lived and broke individuals’ characters in the process.

In corporate companies, the author uses General Electric CEO Jack Welch as the fixed mindset who managed to humble himself to a growth mindset, and as his mindset grew, the company grew at the same time. Lee Iacocca, whose fixed mindset is good at getting the company to the top quickly, but then you have to get rid of him before he breaks it. The Ford Motor Company did just that and Lee Iacocca was not happy. Fixed-minded leaders are more concerned with being heroes and put their ego before the well-being of the company. The author gives an example of Enron as a company that broke the fixed mindset of high-echelon smart people in their hands. Enron hired smart, talented people and paid the ultimate price to close the business. Enron is a good example of groupthink in which executives indulge in brilliance and superiority and make catastrophic decisions.

In love, these two mindsets can make or break a relationship. In her research, Dr. Dweck found that fixed mindsets feel judged and labeled for rejection in a breakup. They also chose revenge as a means of reaching the person who hurt them. The growth mindset is something to forgive, learn from, and move on. The author gives as an example Hilary Clinton who forgave her husband and went to cancel to save their relationship. It takes time and effort to cultivate the emotional skills necessary to maintain a relationship.

Dr. Dweck ends this third section with the influence that the mindset of parents, teachers, and coaches has on the children in his care. In her research, she found that children interpret caregivers’ words of support and encouragement with a fixed mindset approach. This sets them up for failure. For example, “… You learned that so fast! You’re so smart …” is interpreted as “… If I don’t learn something fast, I’m not smart …” She explains that parents, teachers, and coaches They should refrain from praising who judges their intelligence or talent, but praise them for the work they do. She goes on to say that parents, teachers, and coaches should give children equal time and attention, regardless of their initial abilities. Children, in turn, will give their all and flourish. The author notes, “… As parents, teachers and coaches we are confident with people’s lives. They are our responsibility and our legacy …”

In the fourth section of the book, Dr. Dweck embarks on the most rewarding part of her job: watching people change. People are neither aware nor aware of their beliefs. Dr. Aaron Beck, a psychiatrist, found that he could teach them how to work and change these beliefs. And cognitive therapy was born, one of the most effective therapies ever developed. Dr. Dweck used workshops to investigate how fixed-minded people treated the information they received. He found that they put a solid evaluation on every piece of information. Something good led to a very strong positive label and something bad led to a very strong negative label. Growth-minded people are also constantly monitoring what is happening, but their internal monologue is not about judging themselves or others. They are sensitive to positive and negative information, but are attuned to its implications for learning and constructive action. Dr. Dweck also had a workshop for students. Workshops require a large staff to deliver the material. So the workshop material was put into interactive computer modules. The teachers guide their classes through the modules and call it Braintology. These mindset workshops put students in charge of their brain.

It is interesting to note how a simple characteristic like a mindset affects decision-making across a broad spectrum of the population. A kindergarten student, a CEO in a multi-billion dollar company, a surgeon at work in a hospital, a sportsman in practice and on the court, a chef in a high-end hotel, a selection dance students and a sports team. College students drop out of classes or drop out of school because they have a fixed mindset. A growth mindset helps you learn to deal with anger and deal with stereotypes of racial and gender discrimination. It is quite fascinating.

The Virginia Tech Hokies football team is Virginia Tech’s college football program and is one of the most successful college football teams in the country. Compete in the Atlantic Coast Conference in the NCAA Division I-FBS. The Hokies play their home games at Lane Stadium, one of the loudest stadiums and has one of the best home court advantages in the nation. After the 2006 season, the Hokies have a career record of 198-105-4. Their head coach, Frank Beamer, is considered to be the third most victorious coach in Division I-FBS. He ranks behind Bobby Bowden and Joe Paterno. The Hokies also have a consistent record in bowl games, participating in the postseason every year since the 1993 season. They also have the third-longest bowling streak in the country, behind Michigan, Florida and Florida. State. In the history of the college football program, the Hokies have ranked in the Top 10 four times, won six conference championships, and played for the national championships. However, they lost in the 2000 Sugar Bowl to Florida State University 46-29.

The first football game the Hokies played was on October 21, 1892, against St. Albans Lutheran Boys School in Radford, Virginia. At the time, Virginia Tech was known as Virginia Agricultural and Mechanical College. They won their game with a score of 14-10 but eight days later, when they returned to Ratford for another game, they were defeated 10-0. For decades, the Hokies was a mediocre indie show, winning and losing games here and there. But in 1987, when head coach Frank Beamers was hired, the Hokies made their way to the top 20. At the 1995 Sugar Bowl, the Hokies, who ranked 13th, defeated the Texas Longhorns, who ranked ninth. place.

The best season for the Hokies was probably the 1999 season. Led by rookie quarterback Michael Vick, the Hokies went through the regular season with an 11-0 record. They defeated the West Virginia Mountaineers in a last minute drive and a winning field goal that ended in a 22-20 victory. That game became known as the “Miracle of Morgantown.”

In the following seasons, the Hokies were quite successful, reaching the Sugar Bowl 2000 against the Florida State Seminoles. The Seminoles defeated them however 46-29. The following season was better as the Hokies returned to play for the national championship. While losing in the Sugar Bowl to the Miami Hurricanes, they won the 2001 Gator Bowl, defeating the Clemson Tigers 41-20.

Still, the Hokies prevailed in an exciting game against the East Carolina Pirates with a score of 17-7. The team went on to play the LSU Tigers, but managed only 149 yards compared to 598 yards for the Tigers.

Why reassuring human behavior doesn’t work for dogs

Building a solid package

To understand jealousy, we need to understand emotions

Understand that jealousy is a secondary emotion because it is more complex than the primary emotions that are fear, anger, disgust, joy, and surprise. Primary emotions are universal and generally shared by all people. Secondary emotions are more complex because they need to develop on a more conscious level. They are subject to individual social and cultural norms and can express themselves in unique ways.

Stanley Coren, a canine psychologist at the University of British Columbia, wrote an article that appeared in the previous issue of Modern Dog Magazine titled “Jealousy: Dogs and the Green-Eyed Monster.”

In this article you mention a scientist named Friederike Range who did some experiments on dogs to assess their emotions regarding jealousy.

When a dog is jealous

Research has recently shown that dogs can be jealous of other dogs. Through experiments, the researchers studied two dogs in each sample that were next to each other and were asked to perform the same trick, with only one dog getting a reward.

The only dog ​​that receives the reward performs the trick consistently and until the task is finished. The second dog that did not receive the award stopped performing the trick after realizing that the dog next to him was receiving a reward for the same action.

True emotion versus behavioral conditioning

Many of the previous tests that were conducted included tests and rewards based on treats. It made me wonder: was it really a true test of emotion? Or is it really a training exercise in operant conditioning, a form of learning that uses rewards and consequences to elicit behavior?

Signs that your dog is jealous

Aggression: biting, pinching, growling at the animal or person or object by which the dog feels threatened

Urine or stool incontinence– Usually sudden and unexplained pee or poop accidents in the house or in areas where the dog has been previously trained not to go. The jealous dog may urinate or defecate on items associated with what or who is causing your dog to be jealous.

Aggressive behavior – Your dog may react clingy and want more attention from you. Your dog can interfere with your approach to who or what is causing the jealousy. Dogs have been known to hug or push another animal that is petted by the owner when they are feeling jealous. It’s common to feel like your dog is herding you when he’s feeling jealous.

Retired – This is a more tame expression of jealousy in some dogs. You may notice that your dog is acting nonchalantly or leaving the room when the object, person, or animal causing the jealousy is nearby. This type of maladaptive behavior can be passed on as your dog takes time to adjust to the new change. However, if it is not noticed and corrected gently and early, this could lead to your dog feeling depressed.

What do we do wrong with jealous dogs?

Let’s face it: the average person with a dog is not a professional dog handler. They have a companion dog. They have not studied the behavior of dogs for countless hours and they have not devoted their careers to correcting the manners and behavior of dogs. That’s totally fine, because many non-professionals still come looking for answers and wonder how to improve.

So when a typical person feels that their dog is showing possible signs of jealousy, it can indirectly reinforce negative behavior. Because when a dog becomes more aggressive to get attention, more clingy, more demanding, since humans tend to:

Hug the dog

Talk to the dog in a high-pitched, baby-like voice.

Give the dog more attention than usual.

Allow more leniency on rules or limits already set

It’s easy to see why we do one or all of these things. We find it comforting as people. So we assume our dog will find it comforting too. However, behaviorally, these things are not overly comforting to the dog when interpreted by the canine mind.

Why reassuring human behavior doesn’t work for dogs

All that caring and reassuring voice, though useful to humans because we can empathize with the social context of other humans and really understand their words.

A dog does not have that social complexity or the ability to decode our language.

How to control jealousy in dogs

Do you think your dog could be showing signs of jealousy? It’s time to really think about your treatment approach. If you are only trying to elevate your dogs to new jealous behaviors as they arise, you are not addressing the core issue and you are not helping you or your dog to adapt in the long run.

You want to try to analyze the situation to the best of your ability. Why do you think your dog is experiencing these feelings? New pet? New companion? New baby? Some situations are not permanent. For example, you are taking care of pets for a friend or neighbor. Your dog is jealous of the “new” and different pet that he is temporarily caring for. Your dog won’t understand that this is temporary, no matter how reassuring you are. They will only realize it in time.

For temporary situations, you want to keep the current schedule you already have as much as possible. Try not to give your dog too much affection or comfort. Instead of validating their feelings of jealousy for the change, you want them to realize that you are accepting the new responsibility. You’re saying body language to a dog: “I still love you, you matter, but I also have to fulfill these other responsibilities.”

How to help your dog adapt to permanent change

If you are facing a big permanent change, you will need to consider your dog’s schedule and how you want to maintain the routine. Try to groom your dog if you can. And offer him some extra treats for his good behavior, but don’t overindulge in the hugs.

If you can’t keep up with the new doses of attention and fuss, and you shut off with all the treats, hugs, and kisses in 3 days, you will sabotage your plan to make it easier for your dogs to cope with this life change.

Make your changes manageable and consistent and still provide affection.

Prepare your dog if possible – New family pet or baby? Bring home unwashed items that the pet or baby has used, and allow your dog to smell the clothing, fabric, or other items. Than to place the articles or clothes in the newcomer’s area with the “own”, the bed of the new pet or the crib of the new baby.

Feed your dog – both on time and before. This helps show consistency and alleviates your dog’s stress and anxiety, because your dog will know that his survival will be maintained.

Walk your dog – Both on time and before. Again, it helps with consistency so your dog can adapt to new changes.

Find time to pass the time– with your dog that is reasonable. Don’t overdo it. Don’t soften your dog. Make your new schedule realistic. Show your dog what your expectations are. Give your dog an additional 10 minutes a day to relax with you or play a low-key indoor game. Spending time alone with your dog shows him that you still love him and that you still want to take care of him.

take care of yourself – Regardless of what you decide on the schedule, take time for yourself, every day. Don’t run out. Taking care of a new pet or a new baby takes a long time. Leave a lot less time for you. So you need to take time to recharge. You can do your best to take care of others when you have also taken care of yourself!

Building a solid package

When you and your dog go through small and big changes together and adapt to the changes, it makes your pack that much stronger. Stay the course and let the challenges become a mere memory as you enjoy the present and others look forward to many better times ahead.

Of the four NHL divisions, we took a look at where all the teams stand and how they stack up to where they were at the end of last year’s regular season. We have some unexpected teams in some unexpected positions. Why are they there and will they have a chance to stay there or recover?

Last year, the Oilers were second in their division. They are now at the bottom of their division with a much lower record than expected. Plus, their star player, Connor McDavid, is playing and scoring far less than expected. The Pacific division is off to a dry start to its seasons, all except the new team, the Vegas Golden Knights. The other teams have not shown outstanding matches. The Pacific split has been shaken compared to last year and the expected results have yet to come. There are many games to play and all it takes is a couple of teams to hit a hot streak to change the rankings in the Pacific division. One team that expected to see better participation in its season was the Arizona Coyotes. They had a very tough year last season and now they don’t see much improvement. The only team that has a win less than them right now is the Buffalo Sabers. The Coyotes are 7-18-5 and the Sabers are 6-17-4. They are fighting not to be in last place in the entire NHL. It’s hard to watch these teams fight, I don’t like seeing professional teams look so uncoordinated. I hope their seasons start to produce successes for the players and for the club as a whole!

On a different note, the Blackhawks came first in the central division last year and are now second to last this year. The Blackhawks have a lot of skilled players, but they seem to be underperforming. Another team in the central division that is not doing as well as it was at the end of last season is the Minnesota Wild. The Blackhawks and Wild finished in the top two in the central division last year, but they aren’t playing like they did at the end of the regular season. Right now, these two teams are sitting in two of the bottom three spots. The team that is last in the central division is the Avalanche. They had a horrible season last year and while they are doing much better now, they are still the team that was expected to be in last place. One team that was quiet last year and in first place in the central division is the Winnipeg Jets. Right now the Blues and Jets are vying for first place and it should be interesting to see what the product of more competition should produce.

After the Central division, there is the Metropolitan division. The biggest change we’ve seen in this division so far is the amazing courage the New Jersey Devils have shown. They had a poor season last year coming in last and now rank second in the Metropolitan division just two games away from being tied for first. The other teams in the division are not far from expected. The Pittsburgh Penguins have fared mediocre for being a Stanley Cup team and have had big losses to teams with big deficits. Usually the Stanley Cup team represents a challenge to the rest of the league, but there has been nothing extraordinary yet.

Finally, we have the Atlantic division, which has not surprised us too much. There are two teams in this division that have been a lot of fun to watch. These two teams are ranked first and second in the division and have great players. The Lightning are in first place with the Maple Leafs behind by one game in the win category, but with 3 points to tie. In Lightning, they have Stamkos and Kucherov, who are the dynamic duo. These two players have had great passes, plays and goals that you find yourself watching over and over again. In Maple Leafs, you have Auston Matthews, who is 20 years old and has had an incredible season. He’s a great points contender and has incredible goals. These top two teams, plus the Vegas Golden Knights, are some of the best teams to watch right now. The last teams in the Atlantic division are not very surprised. The only team that is surprised to be low in the rankings are the Ottawa Senators, who are in third to last place but in second place last year. They have had an unfortunate season, but they have the ability to make a strong comeback. The Sabers and Panthers are at the bottom of this division and haven’t been the best contenders for a while.

Every week of the college football season, I make at least one college football parlay bet. There is something magical about watching many games at the same time and having action in all of them. If you are new to NCAA college football betting, here is some information to help you.

Let’s start by talking about the difference between bookmakers when a game falls in number. Some bookmakers push ties, which means that your parlay card is reduced to the next number. So imagine you have a 5-team college football parlay and the Ohio State Buckeyes (-3) win by 3. Since it’s a tie, the card would be reduced to the next level. If you are playing a “tie win” card, you would win the bet.

College football parlay cards can have both sides and totals. A side is when you choose sides, like the Michigan Wolverines. And the total is when you bet less or more than the total number of points scored for both teams.

Unsurprisingly, you can increase your pay by adding more equipment. The risk also increases. While most bookmakers tend to have the same payouts, some offer special payout amounts.

Charging for college parlays is fun. Here are some common payment amounts:

Parlay of 3 country teams 6-1

Parlay of 4 country teams 11-1

Parlay of 5 country teams 20-1

Let’s go.

There are also teasers that are somewhat popular with sports bettors. They are easier to win, but pay much less. Many like betting teasers because the lines are more favorable for sports bettors. As an example, you could see the Washington Huskies as a 14-point dog on the royal line and a 21-point dog in a teaser. As you can see, these bets are much easier to win.

Do you know what is the best college football parlay bet you can make? There is a “best” bet and many sports bettors don’t realize it. Whether you’re betting on teasers, semicircles, or straight parlays, you need to know what you’re doing to get ahead.

Well, the new season has finally arrived, and once again we are getting ready to see who the “Cinderella” teams will be. We want to know how the teams are doing compared to last year. We also want to know if the good teams from last year will be able to play well again.

I’m a fan of the Wings so the only way we can improve is if we really win the cup, but here are the top 5 teams you’ll want to see this season.

# 5: Washington capitals

Caps look really good at the beginning of the season. Last year they finished second in the eastern conference and ended up losing to the Penguins in the seventh game of the second round.

This year, they want to do it again. They have a lot of talent that they had last year and they could go further in the playoffs. With the experiences acquired in his last career.

What I like about this team is their offense. They have 3 players that are actually producing for them right now. Ovechkin (duh), Semin and Backstrom (who is giving assists). These players have contributed greatly to making the Capitals one of the highest goal scoring teams in the league.

# 4: Colorado Avalanche

At first, I didn’t think they were going to play well. I didn’t think they had good players that they could trust.

The Avalanche obviously realized this. They have also come up with a very creative and simple solution. Your solution, trust everyone and let’s work together.

It is one of the few good teams that does not have a distinguished scorer, but the offense is widespread. 7 games in the season and only 4 players on the team do not have a point, 3 of them defenders.

If they can keep it up, they’ll get back to where they were at the beginning of the decade, competing in the playoffs.

# 3: Vancouver Canucks

Even before the season started, he was telling people to keep an eye on this team. They really caught my attention during the preseason “nonsense.”

During the preseason they were 7-0-2. However, they got off to a really bad start when the actual season started. They lost their first 3 games.

However, I am still going to say that they are a great team because of the work they did in the preseason. They also have some quality players on their team.

With the twins Sedin and Roberto Luongo (one of the top 3 goalkeepers in the league in my opinion) they have some players they can trust.

The other thing they have done is to increase their scouting ability. Because of that, they ended up with some prospects and a much deeper team than last year.

# 2: Buffalo Sabers

This is another team that didn’t make the playoffs last year. However, the playoffs were not missed much. Remember that last year’s playoffs were very close in the Eastern Conference.

This year, they will fight for the same thing.

The biggest difference between the Sabers and the rest of the league is that Buffalo is a very defensive team. In fact, they have allowed the fewest goals of any NHL team.

Much credit must go to goalie Ryan Miller for keeping the puck out of the net. At the start of the season, he has a 1.6 GAA. It will probably increase, but it is still impressive.

# 1: Pittsburgh penguins

When the Pens took Crosby a few years ago, they were one of the worst teams in the NHL. They weren’t making the playoffs and they were pretty much a team you wanted to take on.

Now, they have changed that. Last year he rose from the ashes to win the Stanley Cup. Of course, they did some trades on the trade deadline that really helped them achieve this.

This year, they have the same talent. Crosby, Malkin, Getzlaf and Guerin can score goals.

The last piece of the equation comes in their goalkeeper, Marc-Andre Fleury. He has shown us that he has what it takes to win championships.

I do not mean that the Pens can repeat, it is still too early for that. However, they will definitely be the team to beat when the playoffs hit.

Trent Reznor, the mastermind behind the industrial rock group Nine Inch Nails, is no stranger to the realm of the best songs in the sexy rock music genre. And if you asked anyone who’s stuck their head into the rock world for an iota of time, they might respond by saying that NIN’s “Closer” definitely deserves a spot on any top 10 list.

But what about Trent’s other bands / projects? What about How To Destroy Angels, the band he shares with his wife, Mariqueen, and his friend / collaborator Atticus Ross? What about your soundtracks, also co-composed by Ross? Their remixes / covers?

How about we dive into less mapped territory?

Here’s an example of a playlist that uses Trent Reznor’s sexy deep cuts:

1. All Time Low (Nine Inch Nails – Hesitation Marks)

Get the ball rolling with this strong mid-tempo funk song, which sounds a lot like “Closer” (Trent even inserts verses from “Closer” when he performs “All Time Low” live). Between Adrian Belew’s dissonant ’70s guitar, Pino Palladino’s staccato bass lines, and the drugged arpeggiator at the end of the song, this song takes you on a drunken sexual journey. Good way to start.

2. Get Down Make Love (Nine Inch Nails – Sin)

Heighten the angst a bit with Trent’s industrial version of Queen’s deep theme from “News of the World.” Produced by Ministry’s Al Jourgensen, Trent’s distorted voice makes him sound even more desperate and sexually frustrated, the complete opposite of Freddy Mercury’s confidence: “I’m the provider of all things sexual, now do what I say.” Trent’s opinion is more “Do what I tell you ???

3.27 Ghosts III (Nine Inch Nails – Ghosts I-IV)

Keep the distress and noise high. This super deep cut is an instrumental from a series of instrumental EPs called “Ghosts”. These EPs were the main reason David Fincher asked Trent and Atticus to score his films. Fincher would put “Ghosts” songs on the “The Social Network” soundtrack to test the feel of things, trying to hear what the difference would be between a darker score and a more upbeat Elvis Costello rock score.

4. Solo (El-P Remix) (Nine Inch Nails – Every day is exactly the same)

This halftime version of NIN’s hit single “Only” by hip hop artist El-P turns the original disco feel into a super sexually charged mix of sweaty beats / turntable effects. Technically Trent didn’t, specifically, but shut up. It is part of the Halo canon (Halos is the official Nine Inch Nails catalog system). This will totally work in your favor.

5. The loop closes (How to destroy angels – Welcome to oblivion)

An almost instrumental song, this melody unites electronics and exotic instrumentation, solidified by another “Closer” -like rhythm. A great song that uses upward dynamics throughout, starting soft, steadily climbing its way to the loud (and you should be climbing to your own loud) before unleashing its energy and resolving into blippy electronic pianissimo. It’s also great to hear Trent and his wife riffs together on vocals.

6. Reptile (Nine Inch Nails – The Downward Spiral)

A classic NIN song from a classic album, but a deep cut nonetheless. Trent is totally in his element of sexual loss and frustration. It takes things a little darker (which, considering everything on this playlist is dark, is saying something).

7. Closer (Forerunner) (Nine Inch Nails – Closer to God)

I know I said we would stay in more uncharted territory, so why does “Closer” appear? Play. BUT this is a remix made by Coil. If you’ve seen the opening credits for “Se7en” (from the aforementioned David Fincher, no less), then you’ve heard this great version of NIN’s biggest single. It’s dirty, muddy, long, and has a slightly more haunting feel than the original.

8. A familiar taste (Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross – The Social Network)

This song is a revised and modified version of a song from the Nine Inch Nails “Ghosts” collection. But I like this version better. In the movie, “The Social Network,” it is played while Mark Zuckerberg is imagining what happens at all the frat parties he would like to attend when young college girls are invited out for a night of drunken sex revelry. This song is a nice warm top for the next track on the list …

9. Container (Nine Inch Nails – Year Zero)

I love this track. This truly rivals “Closer’s” reign of NIN’s sexiest song of all time. This vibrant, throbbing cartilage is ideal for the most violent sexual rompers out there. The noise, the beeps, the rhythm: it’s perfect.

10. Consummation (Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross – Gone Girl)

This is dark. The darkest on the list. And it’s the latter for a reason. I won’t say what happens in the movie “Gone Girl”, but this song takes place during its most moving and violent scene. I would use this song to bring the climax when it comes to your playlist. The slow pulse, the rising cacophony (it looks like your speakers are being smashed) all lend themselves to the perfect ending (read: orgasm) to your ten-song Trent Reznor sex festival.

*** 11. Sugar Storm (Reprise) (Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross – Gone Girl)

As a bonus, use this song as you go down. It is short but pleasant to listen to. It also has the perfect leading key ending, a big cherry on top of everything you just heard. ***

But yes, “Closer” might appear near the end.

Don Lyle, the Northern California area scout for the Cleveland Indians, has some unique ideas on how to search for baseball prospects.

In less than 20 years, Lyle has signed more than 50 prospects to major league contracts, eleven of whom have made it to the major leagues. That is a success rate of more than 20 percent. Lyle is best known for signing Sacramento-area native Derrek Lee, who was recently traded from the Cubs to the Braves. Lyle removed Lee from El Camino High School to a contract with the Padres in 1993.

Sitting with Lyle at a mid-summer display sponsored by the El Dorado Hills Hard 90 Baseball Academy, you learn that he is evaluating players just by the way they walk across the field to start practice. “That (athletics) puts me on the radar.”

Next is another intangible: sincerity. Lyle is looking for people who are serious about business in the field. “Geoff Jenkins did that,” the Indians scout recalls of the Cordova High star who recently retired after an official career and a World Series championship with the Phillies.

When players start to throw the ball, Lyle looks for those with good fundamental arm action and strength in their throws. Eventually, when they warm up, he will instinctively know if he got it right. Even if the arm action “… isn’t exactly how I want it, but the speed is there, then I’m buying,” says Lyle.

During a ball game, the Indians scout times runners to first base, the pitcher’s pitch to home plate with a runner on base, and the catcher throws to second to catch a base robber. All standards for the profession. But Lyle is looking at the batter before he even walks into the box. He’s checking out the prospect while he’s in the circle on the deck, his focus, his sincerity, again seeing if the player is “challenging himself to get that pitcher to the mound. You can see it.”

Lyle will also move to the opposite sideline to view the prospect through his binoculars. “I’m watching him on the bench to see how he’s looking at the game. Do you want to come up with the game on the line? No, when he’s at the plate. Once he gets out of that circle, it’s about his set. Up.”

When Don Lyle ultimately scores a player, he is trying to determine if that player is ready to play in the big leagues today. “Only 1 percent (of prospects) want me right now,” he admits, but marks the others with a touchdown to “go on.” He often recommends those players to college scouts, hoping they will have a chance to further develop and be prepared for the major leagues in time.

The main indicator to measure a player’s skill level compared to those now playing in the major leagues is the standard scoring system of 20-80 from scouts, with 20 being the lowest score and 80 reserved for the maximum of players from all over the world. “Even with Barry (Bonds), I would have had to rate him at 70,” laughs Lyle over a fictitious score by one of his all-time favorite players. “Give it an 80 and there are no advantages.”

When evaluating a high school talent, particularly the bat and arm, Lyle will score a rank rather than an exact number. “You’re kidding yourself a bit. If (the prospect) makes it to the majors, and his arm is 50 now, it’ll probably be a 60 in the majors. I’ll put it as a 50-60, as I hope it’s going to be better. The performance it is still what it is. “
