1. Who is your favorite player on your EHEC team?



2. If anything, what would you walk 500 miles for?

An EHEC Stanley Cup?

3. Create a math problem and make the person under you answer it.

Consider the function f (x, y) = x^3 + yx^2 − 2xy − y − 1
(a) What is the Gradient vector of this function?
(b) What is the Hessian matrix of this function?
(c) Is this function concave at the points x = 1 and y = 1?
(d) Find the total differential of the function.

4. What returning fall show are you most excited for? What new fall show are you most excited for?

Modern Family. Not watching anything new at the moment.

5. Tell me something I don't know about you.

I have a three-digit bank account figure right now.

4. Occupation Double. French reality show about forming couples and winning a big house. Everyone in Quebec watches it (don't lie CGY, LA & NSH!).
5. I hate snakes, public speaking and I play against guys from the NHL/AHL in my summer hockey league.

1. Erik Cole, but like the guy above me I'd trade anyone for the right price. Actually I meant Justin, but Adam fits the bill too.
2. Utopia.
3. 2+2=lim x as x->4. Now prove Fermat's last theorem in 10 lines or fewer. As an alternative, tell me how many digits long Tim's bank balance is in binary and hex.
4. Mad Men, Game of Thrones and Community. But mostly I want the last Mad Men season to show up on Netflix, the hell is it taking so long?

1. Taylor Hall

2. I'd walk 804 KM for free tickets to the 2014 WC in Brazil.

3. pass

4. Boardwalk Empire, and hopefully Community isn't shit without Dan Marmon(Probably will). Slight interest in the new series Revolution, but it'll probably be cancelled halfway through like Terra Nova. :lol:

5. I rape at ball hockey.

1- Brickles

2- Initially, I'm thinking, well, lots of stuff, but I guess carrying provisions would weary me of any enthusiasm. Hey, these are literal times. I guess if it's a matter of 'hey, you - walk 500 miles,' I'd do it for a modest reward. A book deal?

3- I got a C+ in Math 11 and was lucky to get that. Haven't touched the stuff in years. No go. Stats only.

4- Community, even if its DNA has been altered. Parks and Recreation, as it decays. Archer, Louie (which is on now). New shows? Revolution looks... well, disappointing already. Just so crazy it might work? Last Resort. Look at this bananas shit! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCY9bJvjd20

5- I'm full of tinier men.

1) Magnus Paajarvi-Svensson.
2) People tell me I look like the Proclaimers, so I'd walk five hundred miles and I'd walk five hundred more to be the man who puts a bomb underneath their car.
3) 2+2 = lim x as x->4
lim x = lime x - e
4 + e = lime x
lime = (4+e)/x
lime ~ 6.718/x or x = 6.718/lime
7-Up = lemon/lime or lime = lemon/7-Up
x = 6.718*7-Up/lemon
x = 47-Up/lemon

That should do it

4) game of thrones GAME OF THROOOOONES

1. Who is your favorite player on your EHEC team?

Sean Couturier. 2011 draft target way before his creation.

2. If anything, what would you walk 500 miles for?

A glimpse into what happens after death.



3. Create a math problem and make the person under you answer it.

How many outs are in an inning?

4. What returning fall show are you most excited for? What new fall show are you most excited for?

Glee! *Sarcasm* Misses the days of Boy Meets World and TGIF.

5. Tell me something I don't know about you.

I fractured my wrist in 5th grade and had foot surgery in 6th derailing my destiny to have a Keith Van Horn type NBA career.

1. Who is your favorite player on your EHEC team?

Raman "Noodles" Hrabarenka. and eff off Justin with your Dalton Smith

2. If anything, what would you walk 500 miles for?

i met a woman this weekend that was the embodiment of the girl on the hood of the car in the WHITESNAKE video. i mean everything about her was beyond lovely. i am renewed. the short answer is i would walk 500 miles and drag my dick through broken glass just to finger her shadow.

3. Create a math problem and make the person under you answer it.


answer to Tommy's is (usually) 3 (reasoning: the Yankees often get as many as they need...for example, they got credit this year against the Tribe for a ball that was caught by a fan). my question for the next guy is what is 4 X 4 - 4 + 4 X 4 = ? (just saw that on FB, and don't want to "like" to find out answer. hopefully, y'all know it)

4. What returning fall show are you most excited for? What new fall show are you most excited for?

MLB playoffs and Marquette basketball

5. Tell me something I don't know about you.

1. Gabriel Landeskog. He's also my favorite player in the NHL.
2. A spot in the EHEC playoffs.
3. 28, nothing too surprising. What is the change in velocity achieved by a solid rocket that loses 77% of its mass during a burn from Earth?
4. I don't really care about any TV show, so I'll go with the Big Bang Theory, despite missing probably 20 episodes of last season.

1. King Henrik. Although it'll be Ryan McDonagh as soon as I trade Lundqvist.*

2. Dunno. A million bucks?

3.

Considerable, I'm guessing. Next: Gary Bettman, Bill Daly, and Donald Fehr are having dinner together. The check comes to $137.89. Does anyone give a fuck how they split it?

4. My guilty pleasure, despite it being oh so bad: Once Upon a Time. Gonna try out a few new shows this year, like Last Resort and Elementary, and maybe Hunted. (Hello, Melissa George.)

5. I got promoted this summer. Now 75% of my day is spent in meetings and answering emails.

Let me just enjoy it a bit I'm proud!! :D And, you had told me about Benn too! Prospect Mark Barberio (Tampa Bay Lightining) had 6pts as a D, made me look like a little peewee out there last week. Dirtyyy player.

I love them all like children.

Las Vegas.

Bill Daly has already "gone to the bathroom" to walk out on the check. Gary Bettman offers to leave the tip as Donald Fehr takes his company credit card out. The waitress brings back the receipt and Bettman leaves a $5 tip, writing "As an employee of this establishment, you should have been responsible for 7% of this tab" on the back. Bettman and Fehr have to take public transportation back to their hotel because Daly drove by, splashing water onto them from a curbside puddle, screaming "SEE YOU LATER, SUCKERS!" out the window.

How is a pitcher's ERA calculated?

4. What returning fall show are you most excited for? What new fall show are you most excited for?

Homeland. By far. After that, Bones, Big Bang Theory, and I watch a lot of college football. As for a new show, haven't seen any that interest me yet.

5. Tell me something I don't know about you.

My first girlfriend works at the bar that Jennifer and I go play trivia at. I've been there six or seven times and we've had one uncomfortable conversation, even though we "dated" when we were both in eighth grade.

1. Who is your favorite player on your EHEC team?

DOAN DOAN DOAN DOAN DOAN DOAN DOAN.

I have a bunch of favorites, including almost my entire 2010 draft class and anyone named Vladislav. I also can't help but have a soft spot for "The Reaper" Kurt Sauer. But Doan.

2. If anything, what would you walk 500 miles for?

The Long Walk. Look it up.

3. Create a math problem and make the person under you answer it.

A pitcher's ERA is easy:

Image

Using only two 2's and any combination of mathematical signs, symbols, and functions, can you make 5?

4. What returning fall show are you most excited for? What new fall show are you most excited for?

Episodes. I don't really know any of the new shows. I don't really watch TV to be honest; just baseball games. And not really even then, not since the Jays went into panic mode this year and started making retarded trades.

5. Tell me something I don't know about you.

I hate wooden popsicle sticks. They gross me out. I won't put them anywhere near my mouth.

Only 2's. 0.2 is not 2.

EDIT: My bad for not being more specific: you can only use the value 2, rather than the digit 2.

Are you allowing constants like pi? Cause that makes it too easy. Otherwise I've run out of operators.

The answer to Parker's math prob must be: (2/2)+2+2=5 ... and this was a pretty easy one to figure out.

1. Who is your favorite player on your EHEC team?
Image

2. If anything, what would you walk 500 miles for?
To meet with either one of Michael Jordan, Milan Lucic, Joe Bonamassa or The Tragically Hip

3. Create a math problem and make the person under you answer it.
Number of championships Michael Jordan won + Number of Tragically Hip studio albums + Milan Lucic's total NHL career goals + Joe Bonamassa's age 20 years ago.

4. What returning fall show are you most excited for? What new fall show are you most excited for?
The Big Bang Theory (Bern, fuck Occupation Double... sérieux)

5. Tell me something I don't know about you.
My uncle is a famous businessman here in Quebec. He runs Just For Laughs which is the biggest comedy festival around the world. That's pretty neat.
