Dallas Stars vs Anaheim Ducks Live Stream Free, Start Time: Watch Online NHL Hockey 2015

Kesler Brace Hemmelgarn / USA TODAY Sports

Christian Post Report – Ryan Kesler of the Anaheim Ducks.

In their last home game for the regular season, the Anaheim Ducks host the Dallas Stars at the Honda Center in the NHL. The match is on April 8, 2015 at 10:30 p.m. ET.

As the only team who has clinched a playoff spot in the heated Pacific Division, the Ducks are also trying to maintain their top spot in the whole Western Conference.

They had a four-game winning streak before their most recent loss to the Colorado Avalanche.

In that winning run, they beat the Boston Bruins, New York Islanders, New Jersey Devils and the Edmonton Oilers. However, they were unable to overcome an upset-minded Avalanche team when they met in California.

Down 1-0 after a Colorado goal, Jiri Sekac and Rickard Rakell scored in the first period to give Anaheim the lead. However, they surrendered three consecutive points to eventually lose at home.

That loss also broke their four-game home winning streak and they will try to impress their home fans in their final game before the post-season.

On the other hand, are already out of contention to make it to the playoffs but will surely want to go out on a positive note.

They are sixth in the Central Division but have won back-to-back games.

In those two wins, their most impressive performance was an away win over the San Jose Sharks. The match finished 5-1, with the Sharks offering little resistance as goals from Colton Scevious, Patrick Eaves and Jamie Benn gave the Stars a comfortable lead just into the second period. In the third, Benn and Ryan Garbutt completed the route as they found the back of the net.

Dallas and Anaheim have already met twice this season, with Anaheim getting wins on both occasions despite the match being played in Texas.

The last time Dallas won in California was back in February 2014 as as Anaheim have won six of their last eight meetings since then.

AJ Lee Retires From WWE News 2015: CM Punk Reacts

A.J. Lee Facebook/ A.J.- WWE

Christian Post Report – A.J. has retired from WWE

A few days after winning at Wrestlemania 31, the three-time Divas champion AJ Lee has retired from the WWE.

The WWE released the following statement on April 3 about Lee’s retirement: “AJ Lee (April Mendez) has decided to retire from in-ring competition with WWE. We wish AJ the very best.”

Lee has been in the WWE main roster since 2009. Her first Divas Championship win was the longest in the title’s history, as she held the title for 295 days. She was also Pro Wrestling Illustrated’s Woman of the Year for three consecutive years.

Lee suffered a neck injury in August 2014 and took some time to heal. On March 29, AJ and Paige teamed up against the Bella Twins at Wrestlemania 31.

She married former WWE wrestler CM Punk in 2014, and Punk made some controversial comments about the WWE back in November and he revealed that he was let go on his wedding day.

Just one day after Lee’s retirement was announced, Punk took to Twitter to echo the sentiment of his wife’s fans as he wrote, “#ThankYouAJ.”

WWE Legend Mick Foley paid tribute to Lee in a post on Facebook following the announcement.

“AJ Lee has retired from WWE—and somehow that just doesn’t seem right,” he wrote. “I have been talking for a while about a revolution in women’s wrestling—and I really do believe we are on the verge of a new dawn for women’s wrestling. When that new dawn arrives, it would only seem fitting that AJ be allowed to bask in the warmth of the rays she helped make possible.”

“AJ Lee was a pioneer—fighting her way up against all odds in the WWE developmental system, proving that unique talent, heart, and determination were just as important (if not more so) as the physical attributes that were generally accepted as necessary to find a spot near the top of the women’s roster,” he continued.

On April 5, Lee broke her silence about her retirement by tweeting, “Break the rules. Be a fighter. Any dream is possible if you are brave enough to do it YOUR way. Thank you all.”

Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris Dating? Pair Spotted Together in West Hollywood

Christian Post Report – Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris are photographed at Whole Foods in Nashville.

Pop artist Taylor Swift and EDM DJ Calvin Harris seem to have declared to the rest of the world that they are dating. The pair has been seen out together the past few weeks, watching concerts and other events, the latest one being the Haim concert in West Hollywood on April 2.

Eyewitness accounts shared and reported in Hollywood Life said that the pair were “kissing” and “dancing” during the Haim concert at the Troubadour Club. Photos were also circulating online showing Taylor sitting on Calvin’s lap at one point in the night. After the concert, they were seen and photographed leaving the club holding hands. Some reports also cited their matching outfits.

Prior to this, the pair made another public appearance at the Kenny Chesney concert last March 25 in Nashville, where Taylor performed a song with Chesney. Concert goers, according to a report in ET Online, saw the pair walking hand in hand and at one point during the concert, Calvin had his arms around Taylor.

Before this, they were spotted at Whole Foods Nashville doing some grocery shopping together, also in matching outfits. As it turns out, Calvin may have taken a quick break from his hectic schedule — he was supposed to be in Brazil for a music festival — just to see Taylor who was rehearsing for her upcoming tour in Nashville, according to an E! Online report.

In late February, the rumor mill about Taylor’s love life was once again turning when she was reportedly seen cozying up with Calvin during the BRIT Awards after party. These rumors however were shot down by a subsequent report saying that Calvin was currently dating someone.

A few weeks after, according to a report in MTV, it was rumored that Calvin chartered a private jet so that Taylor and her friends could watch his concert in Las Vegas.

Miami Heat NBA 2015 News: Mario Chalmers Unsure of Role

Mario Chalmers Reuters/File

Christian Post Report – Miami Heat point guard Mario Chalmers

Mario Chalmers is in his seventh season with the Miami Heat, winning two NBA championships in the 2011-12 and 2012-13 season.

Earlier in the season, it appeared that Heat coach Erik Spoelstra was trying to find the perfect fit for the guard, starting him on point and sometimes shooting guard as Chalmers tried to settle in to his role.

The Heat had drafted point guard Shabazz Napier for added depth but ultimately traded off Norris Cole in a three-team trade which involved the New Orleans Pelicans, Phoenix Suns and Heat.

In the trade, the Pelicans acquired Cole, Shawne Williams and Justin Hamilton, the Suns got John Salmons, Danny Granger, Hamilton after his contract was bought out, and two first-round picks from Miami. And finally, the Heat acquired brothers Goran and Zoran Dragic, adding strength in the point guard position, but placing Chalmers’ role in question.

Naturally, Dragic was slotted automatically into the starting role, and star Dwyane Wade is on the number two spot, which leaves Chalmers in a tough position.

With all the change that had taken place, the 6-foot-1 guard has now questioned his role on the team.

“I don’t even really know what my role is on this team anymore,” Chalmers told The Miami Herald. “I don’t know what I’m supposed to be doing.”

His movement from point to shooting guard has been a result of players being injured and him being placed as a temporary solution – a decision that frustrates and baffles him. Chalmers understands the situation and revealed that it isn’t easy.

“A lot of people are out of rhythm, and you really don’t know what’s going to happen — when you’re going to get the ball, when you’re going to shoot it, you just never know. You just got to be ready for everything, I guess,” he continued.

As the Heat continue their push towards the playoffs, it should be interesting how this plays out, and to see what Mario’s future holds in Miami.

Chalmers’ importance to the Heat was evident as when he played his rookie season as a starter at age 22. He played 82 games and was in the starting five every game as he averaged 10.0 points, 4.9 assists and 2.0 steals in 32 minutes per night.

In their first championship run, Chalmers was also a very important factor in the team as he averaged 11.3 points per game while shooting 44 percent from the field.

When they played against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the NBA Finals, “Super Mario” was a constant thorn on Russell Westbrook’s side, with the Heat guard using his size and strength to throw off his athletic rival.

And with LeBron James leaving for the Cleveland Cavaliers at the start of the season, many thought that he was one of the players due to step-up as the Heat started to rebuild past the era of the King.

PCUSA Stalling Korean Church’s Effort to Leave Denomination?

  • pcusa

A Presbyterian Church (USA) regional body located in California has been accused of putting a Korean congregation’s effort to leave the mainline denomination to a standstill.

Christian Post Report – Last year, Good Shepherd Presbyterian Church of Rowland Heights voted overwhelmingly to seek dismissal from PCUSA over the denomination’s growing acceptance of homosexuality.

Out of 817 votes casted in the March 2014 vote, 738 voted to leave, 74 voted to stay, and 5 votes were dismissed.

Despite that, the PCUSA Presbytery of San Gabriel has not apparently finalized the dismissal as of this month, according to the Korean-American Christian publication Christianity Daily.

Rachael Lee of Christianity Daily wrote that “over a year later, the church has yet to be completely dismissed from the PCUSA.”

“Based on the San Gabriel Presbytery’s [Gracious Dismissal Policy], if 75 percent or more of a church congregation votes to be dismissed from the presbytery to join another body, the presbytery would then vote regarding the congregation’s dismissal in its next meeting,” reported Lee.

“However, since the church’s vote in March 2014, the presbytery has never voted specifically on the status of GSPC’s dismissal.”

The largest Presbyterian denomination in the United States, PCUSA has garnered much controversy over its growing acceptance of homosexuality and gay marriage.

Decisions at their General Assembly meetings over the past few years have annually prompted scores of churches to vote to leave the denomination.

Most recently, PCUSA approved an amendment to their Book of Order changing their definition of marriage from “a man and a woman” to “two people, traditionally a man and a woman.”

Known as Amendment 14-F, the measure succeeded in getting the necessary number of yes votes from more than 170 presbyteries of PCUSA.

On their website, the Presbytery of San Gabriel still lists Good Shepherd of Rowland Heights as part of their member churches despite last year’s vote.

In a late January meeting, the leadership of San Gabriel did consider the process at Good Shepherd, however, they still looked to “review” the matter in accordance with their dismissal policy.

“Conduct an administrative review of the session and its responsible management of the church’s worship and congregational life as a community of faith, hope, love and witness and the management of the physical property of the congregation for the furtherance of its mission,” read a document about the meeting.

Neither the Presbytery of San Gabriel nor Good Shepherd Presbyterian Church of Rowland Heights returned comment to The Christian Post by press time.

Their most recent win came off the Toronto Maple Leafs in a 2-1 shootout victory. Patrice Bergeron opened the scoring in the 21st minute of the game and also supplied the winning goal in the shootout to give Boston two points.

On the other hand, Washington have won four of their last five games. In that run they beat the Rangers, the Montreal Canadiens, the Carolina Hurricanes and the Red Wings.

Despite losing to the Ottawa Senators, the Capitals still managed to get a point with the match reaching overtime.

In the win over the Red Wings, Evgeny Kuznetsov and Mike Green scored to give Washington a 2-0 lead in the game and prevented any comeback from Detroit.

As for the pivotal match-up between Boston and Washington, a slight advantage is given to the Capitals as they have won their first two meetings of the season. In those two matches, Boston failed to score a single goal while the Capitals netted six total goals.

Rand Paul’s Presidential Plan to Clean Up Washington

Rand Paul's Presidential Plan to Clean Up Washington

Kentucky Senator Rand Paul launched a new website to announce that he is running for President in 2016 and formally addressed the public in Louisville, Kentucky, with a speech that focused on poverty, the national debt and radical Islam.

Christian Post Report – “I am running for president to return our country to the principles of liberty and limited government,” Paul wrote for his website, with the campaign motto: “Defeat the Washington Machine, Unleash the American Dream.”
Kelley Paul, Rand’s wife, spoke and introduced her husband as a “different kind of legislator.”

“I have a message — a message that is loud and clear and does not mince words — we have come to take our country back,” Paul opened. “We’ve come to take our country back from special interests that use Washington as a personal piggy bank … the Washington machine that gobbles up our freedom must be stopped. I want to be part of a return to prosperity, a return to a government restrained by the Constitution. A return to privacy, liberty. Too often when Republicans have won, they have squandered their opportunity and become part of the Washington machine.”

Radical Islam’s War on Christians

Radical Islam's War on Christians

Yet once again the world is presented with the horrific specter of human butchery and barbaric savagery perpetrated by radical Islamist jihadists. A Somali terrorist group, al-Shabaab, attacked the Garissa University campus in Kenya last Thursday, slaughtering nearly 150 students, executing many of them specifically because of their Christian faith. Eyewitnesses said that when the captive students could not recite an Islamic creed they were summarily executed.

Christian Post Report – This savage attack is merely the latest in a series of such violent attacks perpetrated by the al-Shabaab terrorist group. They have murdered hundreds of Kenyans in churches, on public transport, and perhaps most infamously, in the terrible 2013 massacre at the upscale Westgate Mall in Nairobi, Kenya.

Perhaps even more chilling was the news that one of the terrorist killers, Abdirahim Mohammed Abdullahi, 24, killed by security forces along with three other attackers, was the son of a prominent Kenyan government official and “a brilliant upcoming lawyer.”

Taken together with the targeting and killing of Christians by Islamist militants in countries such as Libya, Egypt, Iraq, Syria, and Nigeria, the world is witnessing a slow- motion genocide of Christians in the Middle East. The April 3rd edition of Newsweek’s cover declares, “Targeting Christians In The Middle East, Believers are Fleeing or Being Killed.” The accompanying article, titled “The New Exodus. After Years of Slow But Steady Decline, Christians are Being Driven from the Middle East by ISIS,” tells the sad, tragic story of ancient Christian communities being brutalized and extinguished by ISIS militants.

Sony Xperia Z4 Rumors, Release Date: Leaked Images Reveal Sony’s New Flagship

<b>Christian Post Report</b> – Sony Xperia Z3″ title=”<b>Christian Post Report</b> – Sony Xperia Z3″ name=”jpg” src=”http://images.christianpost.com/full/77317/sony-xperia-z3.jpg” class=”imgPhoto” width=”550″ height=”450″ /> <small class=Facebook/ Sony Xperia Z

Christian Post Report – Sony Xperia Z3

Sony may have let the Consumer Electronics Show and Mobile World Congress pass, but it does not mean it is giving up on its Android flagship lineup.

Just last week, a mysterious device has passed FCC in the U.S., and while it does not confirm anything just yet, its specs allegedly resemble that of rumors buzzing around the Internet for months.

Now, in a report by Phone Arena, it seems the release date for the Sony Xperia Z4 will be sooner than we think, as more leaked images of the device surface.

The first image shows the Android phone’s screen and its bezels, the second picture focuses the device’s 20.7 camera, while the third image shows some setting details.

In a leaked GFXBench benchmark file, the Xperia Z4, which reportedly goes by the model number E6553, will boast a 5.1-inch display with Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution, 3GB of RAM, an octa-core CPU that is clocked at 1.9GHz, and a 32GB built-in memory.

Other important specs include the latest Qualcomm 64-bit Snapdragon 810 chipset, a microSD card slot, and a huge 3,400mAh battery.

The camera department has the 20.7MP main shooter and a 5MP front cam, while the IP68 certification protects the device from liquids in depths of up to 4.9 feet, and up to 30 minutes.

The device will run on Android 5.0 or even 5.1 Lollipop out of the box.

Considering that Samsung and HTC have both announced their respective flagships, and LG will be unveiling its G4 later this month, Sony could make its move soon as well.
