Sharks’ Logan Couture Out Sick, Won’t Play Vs. Kings

... absence is not related to the shot he blocked by Toby Enstrom with 9:25 left in the third period of Monday’s game against the Winnipeg Jets. Couture finished that shift but did not play the rest of the game. “Came down with a little bit of a bug and played through it last game,” De Boer said of Couture. “But just didn’t feel like, one, that he’d be able to play and two, that we travel and expose him to the rest of the group. So he’s at home.”. Patrick Marleau will assume Couture’s spot as the Sharks’ second line center, with Melker Karlsson on the first line with Joe Thornton and Joe Pavelski. Kevin Labanc and Mikkel Boedker will join Marleau on the second line. The Sharks are keeping their third line intact as Joel Ward, Chris Tierney and Timo Meier combined for three goals and three assists against the Jets. The fourth line will feature Ryan Carpenter as center with Micheal Haley and Tommy Wingels on the ...

Old Man Logan Time Travels To Iconic Wolverine Moments For Lemire’s Final Story Arc

... Jeff Lemire will be departing the ongoing Marvel Comics series Old Man Logan with Issue #24. His final story arc, with artist Eric Nguyen, will be titled “Past Lives” and will see Old Man Logan thrown back in time and be forced to relive some of the most traumatic and iconic Wolverine moments as he tries to make his way back to the present. “For me, a large part of writing Old Man Logan has been about taking old Wolverine tropes and stories and then seeing those again but through the lens of Old Man Logan instead, with the different perspective he brings,” Lemire told us in an email interview. “The other big part of the series has been the ‘man out of time’ aspect of Logan struggling with what may or may not be his apocalyptic future. So this story was really about taking both of those things and combining them into one last big story that brings everything I have done in the series full circle.”. Originally, Old Man Logan was a mini-series by Mark Millar and Steve Mc Niven that took place in a future where all of the heroes are dead, the world is ruled by various villains, and Wolverine lives in exile with a family and has gray hair and a failing ...

Hump Days Magic

... you take a moment to look around and think to yourself, “this is really cool to be a part of.”. I’ve had two of those moments already this week. Mississippi State fans created an unbelievably incredible atmosphere at Humphrey Coliseum on consecutive nights, Monday and Tuesday. A total of 18,608 fans passed through the invisible turnstiles and returned the Hump into an intimidating environment for opponents. On Monday, 8,840 fans showed up to support Vic Schaefer’s fourth-ranked Bulldogs as they achieved school history by going 19-0 in a 73-62 win over in-state rival Ole Miss. It was the second-largest crowd ever to watch a women’s basketball game in the state of Mississippi. Insell elation. The environment left even Ole Miss coach Matt Insell envious. “It’s a women’s basketball game in the state of Mississippi that 8,800 people came to,” Insell said. “That says a ...

Logan Loads 'barrell In Thorndon Mile

... watch on the weather for him as he needs a good track.". A multiple Group 1 winner, Volkstok'n'barrell finished sixth in the Group 1 Captain Cook Stakes on his last trip to Wellington in December, blundering the start and running 3.2 lengths behind the winner Aide Memoire. At his most recent appearance, the gelding was beaten a short neck by Consensus in the Group 1 Zabeel Classic at Ellerslie on Boxing Day. Matt Cameron will again be aboard Volkstok'n'barrell in the Thorndon. The Herbie Dyke is set to be the third career clash between Tavistock gelding Volkstok'n'barrell, and Postponed mare Consensus - both five-year-olds. Volkstok'n'barrell got the better of Consensus by almost two lengths, when he won the Group 1 Bonecrusher New Zealand Stakes in March last year. But the Stephen Mc Kee -trained mare turned the tables on Boxing Day under same conditions - weight-for-age, 2000 m, Ellerslie - when the pair ran one-two in the Zabeel Classic. The Herbie Dyke, though, will see them compete again in a WFA ...

Lyft To Begin Pickups At Logan

... At the time, Massport said setting up background checks was a “necessary first step.”. “As we continue to implement legislation that includes the nation’s strongest background check system, the agreement announced today with Massport will expand the safe and diverse transportation options available to those travelers using Boston Logan International Airport,” Baker said in a statement Thursday. Opening the airport to these drivers will further clarify the ride-hailing industry’s once-murky legal status. The decision is sure to upset the taxi and limo industries, which have long dominated transportation services at Logan. They have sued to limit the competitors’ operations in Massachusetts. Jenifer Pinkham, an attorney who represents Boston taxi companies suing the state to overturn the law allowing ...

The New ‘logan’ Trailer Plays Violently Against Type

... Lot of Overwatch. Activision Blizzard. Pornhub released its year-in-review viewing statistics today, and as usual it’s a fascinating glimpse into a (humongous) corner of internet usage that isn’t discussed much in polite conversation. Besides the fact that “VR” was the fastest-growing search in just about every country, one detail in particular caught our eye: the 11 th most popular search term in the world last year was our Game of the Year , multiplayer shooter Overwatch. To which you may be asking yourself: Wait, what. In truth, it’s not that surprising for anyone familiar with the game. Overwatch is, well, horny; it has a wide, colorful cast of largely attractive characters, many of whom are sexualized in ways ranging from the explicit to the more subtle. (Both of those links are safe for work. Scout’s honor.) It’s something the game’s fandom has run with in a big way, too; a quick search of the Overwatch tag on Tumblr or any site like it  reveals an unending stream of fan art, much of it depicting every possible relationship configuration you can imagine. And the cast coming from a ...

Logan' Trailer's Most Meta Moment Is Worth A Closer Look

... new heights in the 1980 s, when writer/artist John Byrne would write himself into the protagonist role of Fantastic Four No. 262 (1984), quickly followed a year later by Captain America — in his civilian guise as Steve Rogers, of course — working for Marvel Comics as the artist on his own comic book. He was hired in 1985's Captain America No. 311, and the job lasted a surprisingly long time. Well, perhaps it wasn't that surprising — after all, what could feed comic creators' egos more than seeing themselves as superheroes. Not every superhero would get this kind of access to the Marvel offices, however. In 2000, the real-life Marvel published a line of comics under the banner Marvels Comic Group. These titles, which were intended to be the comic books as published in the Marvel universe itself, reimagined characters such as Daredevil, Spider-Man and the X-Men as they ...

Massport Gets Three Bids To Oversee Logan Airport Shops, Restaurants

... E; Market Place Development, an affiliate of Boston-based New England Development; and ASUR, a Mexican airport operator. Massport plans to combine management of all four terminals under one concessions contract. Westfield, which manages Terminals A and C, recently said it would not bid for the new contract.

The concessions contract will include about 180,000 square feet of space. About 160 stores, restaurants, and newsstands operate in the airport today. The transition to a new operator will happen in phases: Terminals B and E become available on Nov. 1, Terminal C opens up on Jan. 1, 2018, and Terminal A turns over on April 1, 2018.
