The NHL trade deadline is at 3 p.m. [2]

A look at free agents, prospects, no-trade clauses and more for each team as the NHL Trade Deadline approaches. [1]

With less than 24 hours remaining until the NHL trade deadline passes, the Buffalo Sabres pulled the trigger on a trade that helped bring in St. Louis Blues right wing, Brad Boyes, in exchange for a second-round draft pick. [3]

Here’s a look at some of the chatter around the NHL as we countdown to the 2011 NHL Trade Deadline. [5]

Howard, who leads the NHL in wins this season (30-12-3), also sports an impressive 2.79 goals-against average and.908 save percentage. [3]

The National Hockey League ’s trade deadline is a date set by the NHL league office after which no trades will be allowed for the remainder of the season. [6]

Below is a list of every trade in the league in the 2010 calendar year. [4]

They have plenty of draft picks that could be up for grabs in the right deal, and wouldn’t seem to be put off by a rental either considering their core is locked up and already have plenty of their 2011-12 cap space tied up into 11 players (12 if you include young defenseman Nick Leddy). [...] A quick straw poll on Twitter last night on who the best prospect in the world not in the NHL is right now revealed the two names I expected to see the most — Los Angeles’ Brayden Schenn and Evgeny Kuznetsov, property of the Washington Capitals.

During World War I, in an effort to conserve fuel, Germany began observing DST on May 1, 1916. [...] Daylight saving time in the United States was first observed in 1918. [1]

Daylight Saving Time (or summertime as it is called in many countries) is a way of getting more light out of the day by advancing clocks by one hour during the summer. [2]

Note that the list might not be final - countries, territories and states sometimes make adjustments that are announced just days or weeks ahead of the change. [3]

The conception of DST was mainly credited to an English builder, William Willett in 1905, when he presented the idea to advance the clock during the summer months. [2]

Most areas of the United States currently observe daylight saving time, with the exceptions being the states of Arizona and Hawaii along with the territories of Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, and the Northern Mariana Islands. [...] Another issue is that the Alaskan mainland’s single time zone is too wide and there is a large disparity between civil time and solar time, with solar noon occurring as late as 3:00 PM (1500) by the clock in places like Nome. [1]

Daylight saving time begins in the northern hemisphere between March–April and ends between September–November. [2]

Under the Standard Time Act of 1918, as amended by the Uniform Time Act of 1966, moving a state or an area within a state from one time zone to another requires a regulation issued by the Department of Transportation (DOT). [1]

The UK and Ireland which use GMT over winter switch to British Summer Time (BST) or Irish Summer Time (IST) respectively. [4]

Standard time begins in the northern hemisphere between September–November and ends between March–April. [2]

“An Act to preserve daylight and provide standard time for the United States” was enacted on March 19, 1918 (40 Stat 450). [1]

The daylight saving date in many countries may change from time to time due to special events or conditions.The United States, Canada and some other countries extended DST in 2007. [...] Many countries in the northern hemisphere may observe DST. [...] Today it is almost always one hour ahead, but throughout history there have been several variants on this, such as half adjustment (30 minutes) or double adjustment (two hours), and adjustments of 20 and 40 minutes have also been used.

I’ve added some MQ photos of Anne on stage as she hosts tonight’s Academy Awards. [1]

The competition on the red carpet can be as interesting as the awards race itself. [2]

I just received an email from iVillage letting me know that Anne was nominated for three awards for their 2nd Annual iVillage Entertainment Awards. [3]

Until the red carpet opens, here’s my suggested playlist for all your Oscar parties this year. [...] While Ricky Gervais got laughs and heckles for his razor clawed Golden Globes hosting job, Hathaway said she won’t be doing the same. [4]

I’ve added to the gallery screencaptures of all three of the official Oscar promo commercials that have been released so far. [3]

And if she can go from classic opera to hip hop like this on the real telecast, well, the Academy may have made a very inspired choice. [5]

I’ve added pictures of Anne at Harvey Weinstein And Dior’s Oscar Dinner, of her At The Kodak Theatre Talking To The Media About The Oscars, and a few candid sets of her to the gallery. [...] The first batch of photos from the red carpet have been added to the gallery. [1]

Some Oscar hosts make headlines by calling out Hollywood’s heavyweights. [4]

Last year was a painful one for movies about fearless women struggling for rights, freedom and equality. [5]

And Hathaway promises that she won’t emulate Ricky Gervais. [2]

The star, continuing her series of re-imagined film classics, quickly makes the switch from the iconic “Don’t Cry For Me Argentina” from Evita to Wreckx-N-Effect’s “Rump Shaker” in this promo. [5]

The first time host, who will be joined on stage by James Franco, gave a long interview to The Hollywood Reporter about this coming Sunday’s big show, talking her plans for live comedy and what the producers have in store. [4]
