Tales from the locker room Tales From the Crease
Posted by RatzySnipes on Wednesday, July 21, 2010
Goalies are the quiet guys. When you spend half the game alone with your thoughts while the boys dangle in the offensive end, you've gotta learn to stay focused. In the dressing room, while the forwards are arguing over who benches more, who wheels the best broad, and who has the dirtiest flow, the goalie sits in his normal spot, packing a lip and contemplating the game ahead. He knows exactly what numbers on the opposition will go glove side, which ones will hack, and which will chirp the hardest. But none of that matters to the tendy. He's not the biggest guy on the team, but he's the Arnold Schwarzenegger of mental strenghth. Tonight, he could be facing the league's leading goal scorer, all alone on a breakaway while the sold out home crowd places all their playoff hopes on his shoulders. Is he rattled? No. Is he nervous? No. He's ready to step out onto the ice and giv'r. One too many pucks to the head has made him realize that there's nothing to fear. He spits out his chew, cleans out the spice rack with some water, and laces up the pads that will protect him from 90-miles-an-hour shots, and protect his team from losing their shot at the championships. 'Cause when you're a goalie, every day is a great day for hockey.

Mass extinctions have served as huge reset buttons that dramatically changed the diversity of species found in oceans all over the world, ffxiv gil, according to a comprehensive study of fossil records. final fantasy xiv gil, The findings suggest humans will live in a very different future if they drive animals to extinction, because the loss of each species can alter entire ecosystems. ffxiv gil, Some scientists have speculated that effects of humans - from hunting to climate change - are fueling another great mass extinction. ffxiv gil, A few go so far as to say we are entering a new geologic epoch, leaving the 10,000-year-old Holocene Epoch behind and entering the Anthropocene Epoch, ffxiv gil, marked by major changes to global temperatures and ocean chemistry, increased sediment erosion, and changes in biology that range from altered, ffxiv gil, flowering times to shifts in migration patterns of birds and mammals and potential die-offs of tiny organisms that support the entire marine food chain. ffxiv gil, Scientists had once thought species diversity could help buffer a group of animals from such die-offs, ffxiv gil, either keeping them from heading toward extinction or helping them to bounce back. wow gold, But having many diverse species also proved no guarantee of future success for any one group of animals, given that mass extinctions more or less wiped the slate clean, Louis Vuitton Handbags, according to studies such as the latest one.
