Dear Friend,
I believe Marion County is a wonderful place to live, work, and raise a family. I have made it my priority to keep it that way. When elected officials stick to the core functions of government, it's the taxpayers who win!
I have stood by our first responders giving them the tools they need to keep us safe. Solving problems and team building is what I love; a more efficient government has been the result. The shift is tangible. Can you feel the momentum in our community? Small and large business have added over 5,600 jobs. By holding government accountable and standing for conservative principles, we have positioned our county to be all that we have imagined.
Don't be fooled—there are definitely some "good ol' boys" who want things run to benefit them. But this is no time to hand Marion County back to the cronies and bureaucrats of the past. During this time of tremendous growth Marion County needs to be safeguarded against those who would turn Ocala into Orlando. I get it! Clogging up SR 200 is no good, nor does the Coastal Connector belong in our beautiful horse country!
People shape community, not government. Today, the future of Marion County is being decided. Let's continue working together to preserve our resources and shape the community we deserve!
Carl Zalak
Republican for Marion County Commissioner

The account began tweeting spammy links at a number of seemingly random users, directing them to the flashscore.ro website. USA Today "We've locked the account down and deleted the Tweets. There's no indication any account information was accessed," Jim Prosser, Twitter spokesman, said. CNBC reported that some 296 tweets were sent in an eight-minute period. CNBC This was the second time in three months that Noto's own Twitter account made news. In late November, he apparently posted as a public tweet something related to an acquisition that was intended to have been a private direct message. Bloomberg Business Twitter accounts with large followings are often compromised.

I have been busy all day. Busy enough to have missed both The USA – Switzerland hockey game AND Toyota chief Toyoda's questioning in front of the house oversight committee. SUCK is a good way to put that. I'll be able to catch both on-line, but it's not like I don't know how things ended, so there's not any suspense about how things turned out. The Americans beat the Swiss 2-0, and Toyoda walked away without a scratch on him. Actually I don't know that for certain about Toyoda, but one can speculate. There is no way in hell Toyoda would say there was anything wrong with the circuitry in his cars, seeing how they have claimed from the get go that it was anything but their electronics.
Forget where I saw it, but I read a story yesterday written by a man who was an auto mechanic for 30 years about the real problem in these cars, and not just Toyotas. It is the drive by wire system. The basic concept he threw out was that having a computer in control of when brakes are applied on a car or when to slow down or speed up is an inherently bad one. A computer glitch is always a hairy mess, and we who own the damn things know how hairy a mess they are. A computer glitch, an even minor malfunction ANYWHERE in the system while you are driving sounds especially dangerous.
Now I won't say it was or wasn't an electronic malfunction that killed and/or hurt, and/or scared the crap out of all the Toyota drivers and all the others who were killed or injured from whatever malfunctioned in those cars. But rather than just say "it was just a carpet" or " it was a weak pedal" or whatever, it seems easier to me to just fix the entire issue. If Toyoda DOESN'T address the problem electronics/computer properly, which they clearly aren't, you can be certain that it will cut market share. THAT is the one good thing that can come of it. If you fail to fix things to OUR standards, regardless of what you think the problem is, people will simply buy something else they think is safe. Toyota is, through simply not addressing this issue, getting a reputation for not fixing the issues in their vehicles, and as a result, for being unsafe.
I say buy American, but that's just me. Toyota is by and large non-union in this nation, and as a consequence doesn't pay its people as much as their American counterparts get paid to build cars. THIS is why those who make cars should get more money. You get paid more, you do a better job. Toyota is cheap with its employees and this is what happens. Sad but true. Incomplete argument? Sure it is, this argument doesn't take into account issues that Toyotas have had in other nations, including Japan. I, though am confining my argument to American built toys.
There have been issues with these cars for years, all over the planet. Time has caught up with them, that's all.
This is an election year in America, every seat in the House of Representatives is up, as are 34 seats in the Senate. A large number of these seats are fairly well guaranteed to stay with the current seat-holder despite the air of unhappiness in this nation over its elected officials. There are seats though, that despite being more or less locked up, that one can hope will change in November. I want to see Steve King from Iowa lose. He has annoyed me for years. I remember him being the first guy to play the race card against then Senator Barack Obama, the first to imply he was a Muslim in public. That is only one instance though. He has come across my radar a few times.
In this latest incident he has actually expressed empathy with the terrorist who crashed his plane into the IRS headquarters in Austin, Texas. It is amazing to me that someone can feel empathy for a terrorist. I hate paying taxes, I don't know anyone who likes paying them, but to take the extra steps it takes to go from hating taxes to hating fellow countrymen enough to kill them over taxes is ridiculous. To empathize with someone who would do what this joker did is at least equally ridiculous. I have watched the video in question. Here's your chance to:
He completely glosses over the fact that this guy attacked Americans on American soil. Completely. Rather than, I dunno, say something about how fcuked up it is to want to crash a plane into anything, or maybe about how violence against Americans is never right, he says:
"I think if we had abolished the IRS back when I first advocated it he wouldn't have had a target for his airplane"
Is this putz serious? That is some insanely twisted logic. Abolish the IRS and idiots with grudges won't have anyone to aim at? So we are blaming the TARGET of terrorism for being attacked? The IRS is to blame for making itself a target? By simply existing??? Does he feel the same way about the Pentagon? The World Trade Center? The U.S.S.Cole? The Embassies in Nairobi and Dar es-Salaam? All of these were targets of terrorist attacks. Does he think we had it coming, or is he simply justifying attacks that jibe with his political biases? Is he only against terrorists when they attack people he dislikes?
Vote this man out of office, Iowa. You can do better than this. Show that you love America, DON'T VOTE FOR STEVE KING.
That's it for me, except for the nuggets. Thanks for reading!
Today's nuggets, via wikiquote: "I Define a "terrorist" as a non-state actor who attacks civilian targets in order to strike terror into the hearts of the enemy community.. A "state terrorist" is a state doing the same thing. Michael Mann
The object of government is the welfare of the people. The material progress and prosperity of a nation are desirable chiefly so far as they lead to the moral and material welfare of all good citizens. Theodore Roosevelt
Mistake fixed at 1:08am 2/25/10. Last word of 4th paragraph in Steve King piece changed from "likes" to "dislikes" My apologies for the obvious stupid mistake.

The woman who sang the hit single Even When I'm Sleeping last night failed to turn the chair of any coach on The Voice.
Ricky Martin admitted he was "stupid" for not picking Abby Dobson, the lead vocalist for ARIA-nominated folk-pop band Leonardo's Bride.
Dobson's rendition of Aretha Franklin's Do Right Woman Do Right Man was "too much song" for Seal.
"That is a big song. You know, you have what it takes, and I know that you'll take this experience and you'll keep doing what you do," he said.
Joel Madden told the accomplished 43-year-old Sydney singer that he thought she "missed the moment".
Delta Goodrem told Dobson her voice was "captivating", and that she was "an idiot" when she realised who Dobson was.
Leonardo's Bride were nominated for three aria awards in 1997 and Even When I'm Sleeping was voted song of the year at the 1998 APRA awards.

Marat Safin shares differences between him, and Roger Federer, Nadal and Djokovic
by LUIGI GATTO | VIEW 14628
In an interview, former world No. 1 and two-time Grand Slam winner Marat Safin spoke about how his life has changed since he stopped playing tennis professionally. Safin said: "I go to bed early, at 10-11:00 PM. I wake up at 8-10 AM, I walk, I travel.
I do not play tennis. I sometimes go to the veteran tournaments, I prepare for two or three weeks. But, in general, what's the point in it? Imagine to have worked as a journalist, to have ended your career and to have started working on it again.
That's silly. So, I mostly go to the gym to stay in shape. Thrice a week I train for two hours to have a good weight." Safin ended his career at the 2009 Paris Masters losing to Juan Martin del Potro, at just 29 years of age.
"I had a lot of injuries," Safin admitted. "I was playing for a year, I was not playing for a year. The last injury was a broken leg. And that's all. That's why I finished. If it wasn't for it, I may have continued to play.
But no one knows. "Undergoing surgery would have not been possible," Safin explained. "The chances that it would have turned successful is very low. I was told: 'We do it for you, but it's risky. You will have to forget of any sport for the rest of your life.
Do you need it?' 'No.' It's the right decision." What caused this injury? "Overstress. It was not possible to stop. I fought until the last, then it was too late. I did not stop, I thought it would have healed.
It got worse. Consequently, I could not play. I had damages before. I broke all the possible muscles. Elbow, two ankles, back. The knee was the finish line. The doctors told me to stop and I continued for two more years. I cameback, but I could not run anymore, I lost speed, the vision of some things.
It's difficult to see that with Nadal, Federer, Djokovic."

Cricket Australia has been described as arrogant and bent on winning at all costs in a review of its culture and governance commissioned after the ball-tampering scandal in South Africa.
The review by Simon Longstaff of The Ethics Center, released Monday, said administrators should bear as much blame as captain Steve Smith, vice-captain David Warner and batsman Cameron Bancroft, who were suspended for their roles in the incident at Cape Town in March.
The attempt by Bancroft to use sandpaper to alter the condition of the ball during the test match, with the knowledge of Smith and Warner, caused "grief" among the Australian public, Longstaff said.
It exposed a dark culture, also manifest in players' aggressive conduct toward opponents.
Longstaff's 147-page report, based on interviews with players, sponsors and other stakeholders, said Cricket Australia had consistently failed to live up to its values and principles and a culture of disrespect and bullying ran through the organization.
"The most common description of CA is as 'arrogant' and 'controlling'," the report said. "The core complaint is that the organization does not respect anyone other than its own.
"Players feel that they are treated as commodities. There is a feeling among some state and territory associations that they are patronized while sponsors believe their value is defined solely in transactional terms."
Longstaff's findings are couched in unusually powerful terms. He says the grief felt by the Australian public in the wake of the ball tampering affair "was linked to a sense of shame not felt since the days of the perfectly legal, but what some may consider unsporting, under-arm bowling incident." That was a reference to the infamous under-arm delivery by Trevor Chappell in a one-day international against New Zealand in 1981.
"Responsibility for that larger picture lies with CA and not just the players held directly responsible for the appalling incidents," in the match at Cape Town.
Smith, Warner and Bancroft are the only players named in the report. Others, who gave feedback to the author, are anonymous.
"Over recent years, David Warner and Steve Smith have attracted the highest number of Code of Conduct breaches for international matches," the review said. "However, in the last two years, both men have been honored, suggesting that poor behavior is not considered to be linked to the concept of poor performance."
Longstaff said stakeholders "expressed deep regret over CA's tolerance of poor behavior among elite male cricketers and the organization's consistent failure to hold players accountable."
"A lack of appropriate sanctions, including the absence of 'call out culture', has allowed behavior by players and coaches to diverge from community standards," the review said. "A culture of disrespect for the opposition, as seen in the common practice of abusive sledging, runs through Australian domestic and international cricket, to a degree not practiced by other nations. There is nothing enjoyable or fraternal about abuse. It is simply crude and brutal."
The review finds that Australian cricket "has lots its balance...and has stumbled badly.
"The reputation of the game of cricket, as played by men, has been tainted. Women's cricket remains unaffected."
The review said the Cricket Australia leadership should accept responsibility "for its inadvertent (but foreseeable) failure to create and support a culture in which the will-to-win was balanced by an equal commitment to moral courage and ethical restraint."
CA has begun to address some of its perceived shortcomings ahead of the review. Chief executive James Sutherland has left after 17 years and Pat Howard, the high-performance manager, has said he won't seek to extend his contract beyond mid-2019.
New Australia coach Justin Langer and captain Tim Paine are charged with changing the culture within the Australian team.
Paine has already made moves to improve the team culture.
"It's a case of knowing what is right and what is wrong," Paine said. "We just got a little bit wrapped up in our self-importance. It's not our cricket team it's Australia's cricket team and I think for a little while we lost that."
The review warned the ball-tampering incident should not be seen as an aberration of the failure of a handful of players.
"We have spoken with players who are reluctant to challenge the errant behavior of teammates just in case it puts them off their game and leads to a loss," it said.
Australia's elite male players live in a "gilded bubble" disconnected from the "grounding influence of the community."
Longstaff recommends the establishment of a CA ethics commission and an Australian Cricket Council which would meet twice a year to consider "issues of strategic significance."

What to Wear on Thanksgiving
We're the kind of family that has always gotten dressed up a bit on holidays. My mom had coordinating dresses on the ready for my sister and I when we were growing up without fail. When I became a mama myself, I finally understood why she made us wear nice outfits. It's so fun to dress up the family that you're so proud of and take a holiday photo to look back on in the years to come. So, let's talk about what to wear on Thanksgiving!
Rugby Striped Henley Dress / Thermal Dress and Mini Stripe Leggings / Velour Racing Stripe Zip Front Hoodie and Pant Set / French Terry Hooded with Stripes Accent Dress / Thermal Henley Tee and Pant Set / Pull Over Hoodie with Rugby Stripe Side Panels / Velour Hoodie and Cinched Pant Set / Thermal Dress and Mini Stripe Legging Set / Rugby Stripe Cut V Neck Tee
That being said, I certainly don't want my babies to be uncomfortable. Sure, I'm shooting for the photo opp, but my kids should be able to run around and have fun without having to worry about messing up their outfits. Enter Burt's Bees Baby. In this line you'll find super soft organic clothing for babies, toddlers and kids that are totally presentable. They'll look darling, yet be able to run outside and play in comfort.
Sure, they're basically loungewear pieces, but it's cute loungewear that would look just adorable in family photos. With a classic color palette of navy, red and grey, these neutral pieces could be a big part of your kiddo's winter wardrobe as they can be mixed and matched with with ease. Plus, they're perfect layering pieces. You can't get through the cold weather without layering! And even if you do want to go the much dressier route tjhis Thanksgiving, Burt's Bees Baby pieces would be great play options to keep on hand for the kids to change into after dinner!
Doesn't my lil' lady bean look toasty warm? Who knew velour sweats could be so stylish? They just scream comfy chic! So, what will your family be wearing on Thanksgiving this year lovelies?

Rami Malek opened up for the first time about his experience working with Bryan Singer on "Bohemian Rhapsody," calling his time with the director "not pleasant."
Malek was honored at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival last week for his portrayal of Freddie Mercury in the Queen biopic. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Malek was asked about Singer's numerous sexual assault allegations from men who were, at the time of the alleged assault, underage.
"My heart goes out to anyone who has to live through anything like what I've heard and what is out there," Malek replied. "It's awful, it's remarkable that this happens, I can appreciate so much what they've been through and how difficult this must be for them. In the light of the #MeToo era that this somehow seems to exist after that, it's a horrible thing."
He continued: "I've sat here and talked about how everyone deserves a voice and anyone who wants to talk about what happened with Bryan deserves to have their voice heard. In my situation with Bryan, it was not pleasant, not at all. And that's about what I can say about it at this point."
Singer was fired from "Bohemian Rhapsody" after repeatedly failing to show up to the set. His name is still credited as director on the film and he is set to earn an estimated $40 million from the movie's historic box office sales.

Intense Collagen-building Skin Treatment
This is a skin microneedling procedure that uses small needles to pierce the skin for the purpose of stimulating the skin. Mild trauma from tiny micro-needles stimulate the skin to produce new collagen and elastin. As a result, a smoother, firmer, more toned skin is revealed. This is a useful technique to treat scars, wrinkles and large pores. Topical anesthesia is applied to the skin to ensure a pain free experience.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) along with skin microneedling will intensify the natural wound healing cascade. This is because of the high concentration of the patients own growth factors in the PRP. During this process a sample of your blood is drawn and PRP is extracted. PRP contains several growth factors, including platelet-derived growth factor, transforming growth factor B and vascular endothelial growth factors. These factors are important for proper wound healing and collagen formation. Your PRP is then applied to your skin during the micronedling process. This will act synergistically with growth factors induced by skin needling in order to magnify the wound healing response and collagen formation. Skin microneedling with PRP is used to create a "vampire face lift" for overall collagen stimulation, skin rejuvenation and skin tightening.
A series of treatment sessions are recommended for best outcomes.
At AnewSkin Medspa we utilize the only FDA cleared device by SkinPen
Visit us for your skin microneedling needs in Washington D.C
Prices start at $350/session and will vary depending on your individual needs. Package deals also available. Review individual procedure prices here

SailPoint has launched a cloud-based version of its identity and access management (IAM) solution.
According to the company, its IAM-as-a-service IdentityNow offers privileged management, single sign-on and provisioning in a SaaS environment and it allows enterprises to roll out IAM services within a matter of days.
SailPoint president and co-founder Kevin Cunningham said that rather than a hosted or on-premise solution, this offers a solution to multiple identities being used across resources and applications, which is presenting a whole new challenge for businesses.
He said: "The only way to manage access to your environment is to have an effective IAM strategy. On-premise and SaaS applications have historically been a lag for solutions. This is in the cloud so our people never see the data unencrypted and it is never exposed in the clear to anyone in development operations.
"It is an educational issue for us as security comes from education and there are privacy concerns where the data centre comes in, but we have interfaces for legacy systems. Technology can overcome this as there are components to overcome this and where technology has been a lag, but we believe this will help overcome fears.
"Imagine access to SaaS applications to enable to access to any application from a mobile device. IdentityNow is not about hosting, it is a native SaaS application and the features and user interface is similar to what we already offer."
The company claim that IdentityNow meets the most stringent security, availability, scalability and performance requirements as well as end-to-end data security, strong encryption and secure and firewall-friendly integration to on-premises applications. The company has completed a rigorous SSAE16 SOC 1 audit.
It includes default policies, solution templates and setup wizards, while for future users SailPoint provides a "Cloud On-Ramp" program that gives customers the flexibility to migrate from IdentityIQ to IdentityNow with minimal business disruption.
Cunningham said: "Customers have been under-served by the Identity-as-a-Service products available in the market because they do not meet the full scope of requirements for enterprise-grade IAM. We spent two years designing and building IdentityNow with the specific needs of our enterprise customers in mind."

Singer and jazz legend Al Jarreau died Sunday in Los Angeles, just days after retiring from touring, his manager told NBC News. He was 76.
The singer was surrounded by family and friends when he died.
"His second priority in life was music. There was no third. His first priority, far ahead of the other, was healing or comforting anyone in need," a statement on his website read, announcing his death.
U.S. & World
Jarreau was reportedly forced into retirement due to exhaustion. He was hospitalized in Los Angeles and then cared for by a medical team in the days leading up to his death, according to the Associated Press.
Born in Milwaukee, Jarreau arrived as a jazz singer on the Sunset Strip in the 1960s, and rose to national fame through guest spots on "The Tonight Show With Johnny Carson'' and shows hosted by Merv Griffin, Dinah Shore, Mike Douglas and others.
[NATLu002du002dDO NOT USE] In Memoriam: Influential People We've Lost This Year
He was featured singer on one installment of the first season of "NBC's Saturday Night Live,'' and in 1976 issued an album that made him an international star, "We Got By.'' Jarreau's first crossover hit in the U.S. -- "We're In This Love Together'' -- made him a stalwart on soft jazz radio stations across the country.
But it was his theme song for the hit TV show "Moonlighting'' that may have been his most famous work.
He died at 5:30 a.m. Sunday morning with his wife Sandy and son Ryan at his side, said his manager, Gordon.
In lieu of flowers, Gordon suggested mourners contribute in Jarreau's name to the Wisconsin Foundation For School Music.
"Thank you Al, from all of us. You completed your ministry in a beautiful and gracious way. Godspeed… you've earned it," the statement on his website concluded.
A small, private service is planned, said his manager, Joe Gordon.
Condolences were pouring in on social media, including a tweet from funk diva Chaka Khan that read: "You were EVERYTHING jazz and beyond with an unrivaled improvisational genius."

Most ARM mini PCs run Android, while mini PCs based on Intel Atom Z3735F currently all ship with Windows 8.1, so it makes comparison difficult. But since Linuxium posted triple boot instructions (Ubuntu, Android, Windows 10) for MeegoPad T01, he's also run Antutu 5.6 on the platform, so we've got a comparison point.
Haoyu Electronics has made a new board similar to their MarsBoard RK3066, but instead of using a CPU module with Rockchip RK3066, they've used the industrial version of the chip called Rockchip PX2 dual core Cortex A9 processor.
The latest low-cost, Linux-friendly ARM single board computer is the Orange Pi that's trying to ride off the success of the Raspberry Pi.
There's already a method to boot Android from an SD Card on RK3188 devices, which should work with all Rockchip RK3188 devices. Ian Morrison (Linuxium) has now provided a instructions to boot Linux or Android from a (micro) SD Card in Rockchip RK3288 based devices, leveraging work from linux-rockchip community, and especially naobsd.
Compulab Utilite is a family of mini PC based on Freescale i.MX6 processors that can run either Android or Ubuntu, and was launched in 2013.
Linaro 14.11 has been released with Linux kernel 3.18-rc5 (baseline), Linux 3.10.61 & 3.14.25 (LSK, same versions as last month), and Android 4.4.2, 4.4.4, and for the first time Android 5.0 Lollipop.
The OSRF plans to add ARM support to the Robot Operating System (ROS), starting with the Snapdragon 600 running Linux in Q4, followed by Android in 2015.
The folks at VolksPC started showing off a software solution that lets you run Android and Debian Linux simultaneously on an ARM-based computer. This lets you use the same machine to run full desktop Linux apps like LibreOffice or Firefox as well as Android apps including Netflix, Hulu Plus, and any number of video games.
Linaro 14.04 release is now available for download. See the detailed highlights of this release to get an overview of what has been accomplished by the Working Groups, Landing Teams and Platform Teams. The release details are linked from the Details column for each released artifact on the release information:
Linaro, the open-source development consortium for Linux on ARM architecture, is working on software, tools and drivers that could hasten the release of 64-bit Android. The move is significant because, apart from Apple's iPhone 5s, no 64-bit smartphones have been announced, a situation that analysts partly attribute to the lack of 64-bit Android for ARM processors, which are the most widely used in handsets and tablets.
We all love to root for an underdog, especially in tech, where revolutions have so often been launched from garages or dorm rooms. But the past few years, there's been little room for Cinderella stories in the world of tablets and mobile computing as massive monoliths like Apple, Google, and Samsung have come to dominate, and even well-established names like Microsoft and BlackBerry struggle to gain a foothold.
CAMBRIDGE, UK, September 24, 2013—Undo Software, a supplier of Linux and Android software development solutions, today announced that ARM has entered into an agreement to integrate UndoDB in its flagship software development tool suite, ARM® DS™-5 Development Studio.
Compulab plans to launch a mini-computer with an ARM Cortex-A9 processor and support for both Ubuntu Linux and Google Android. It's called the Utilite, and the computer's expected to go on sale in August for $99 and up.
FXI Technologies was the first company to ever show an HDMI TV dongle when they unveiled the Cotton Candy in November 2011. Since then, many Chinese companies started to provide similar products at lower cost, and the company further improved the Cotton Candy, which is still powered by Exynos 4210 (dual core Cortex A9), by making it even smaller, and getting rid of the internal flash in the process.
The Wandboard is a tiny computer or developer board with an ARM-based processor, a wide selection of ports for connecting peripherals, and support for both Google Android and Ubuntu Linux.
Tablets wore off their novelty allure years ago, but there are still some ways to make them stand out, both among all other consumer electronics devices and amidst their peers. DaVinci Mobile just used one of those methods.
I've had several people asking me about running Linux on Android in the last few months, but I did not look into it into details, because I thought we would just be able to run server apps. That is until Rohith left a comment on CNX Software Facebook timeline, that it's possible to run Linux in Android, and access the user interface via VNC (sort of simple, but I did not think of it).
The PengPod tablet, which allows for dual-booting Google's Android and Ubuntu/Linaro on an ARM-based tablet, is becoming a reality after it was successfully crowd-funded.
There are plenty of tablet based on AllWinner A10 and A13 processors, but all of them run Android, and you are out of luck if you want to run Linux on your tablet, unless you hack this yourself. But this is about to change as PengPod will launch 2 tablets and 1 mini PC running Linux from NAND flash or micro SD card:
The folks at Rikomagic UK sell a mini PC called the MK802 which can run Google Android, Ubuntu Linux, or a range of other operating systems. It features an Allwinner A10 ARM Cortex-A8 processor and HDMI and USB ports for connecting a monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

Chicago Bulls, NBA Fans Hold Breath Awaiting Derrick Rose Knee Injury NewsNovember 23, 2013
Hold your breath. Cross your fingers. Pet your lucky rabbit's foot. Go find a four-leaf clover.
Do whatever you have to do if you want to pull a Daft Punk and get lucky, because the Chicago Bulls—and NBA fans in general—can't afford for Derrick Rose to suffer another major knee injury. It took him an entire season to rehab from a torn ACL, and we were finally getting used to seeing him suit up on a nightly basis.
But then, after starting to hit his stride against the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night, Rose's right knee buckled as he lost his handle in the third quarter, and he was forced to limp to the bench, exiting with 20 points, five rebounds, three assists and two steals on 6-of-19 shooting from the field.
After that, he was assisted to the training room, and we were treated to this ugly picture:
You can see the play that caused the injury below.
At first glance, it doesn't appear to be all that bad, but the knee does buckle. And on a non-contact injury, that's never a good sign. It also didn't take long for ESPN's Nick Friedell to confirm that Rose would not be returning to the game:
It doesn't appear as though we'll be getting much more definitive information the night of the injury, as the Chicago Tribune's K.C. Johnson reports that he'll be getting an MRI in L.A. on Saturday, Nov. 23:
But yikes...the early indications don't look good:
Despite the wonders of optimism, it's hard not to fear the worst, especially because he's coming off a non-contact ACL tear on the other knee. Painful as it is, this is still an enduring memory:
For what it's worth, Rose is staying positive:
That can't be said for the rest of the world. Again, the early indications don't look good. Jordan Bernfield of WGN Radio has this on Rose's injury:
Let's also not blame Tom Thibodeau this time. He may or may not have been over-utilizing Rose when he tore his left ACL, but he's been much more cautious with Rose this season than he was during the 2012 playoffs:
There are admittedly many other knee injuries that a basketball player can suffer on such a play, and there's no guarantee this was bad enough to knock Rose out for an extended period of time.
Let's have Hardwood Paroxysm's official Twitter feed put things in perspective for us:
That said, it could be bad.
And that's bad news for the Bulls because Chicago just isn't the same basketball team without him. Tom Thibodeau is forced to rely heavily on Kirk Hinrich at the point when Rose isn't in the lineup, even though he's been more effective off the ball as he's aged, and Marquis Teague has to play big minutes. While the Kentucky product has potential, he plays like he's terrified to shoot the ball, and that's problematic for a team that already is lacking offensive options.
Without Rose, Luol Deng and Carlos Boozer become the go-to players, and it's tough for them to score enough that the suffocating defense Chicago employs actually matters.
Why else do you think we're seeing reactions like this one from B/R's Kelly Scaletta?
Once Rose went down, the Blazers were able to complete their comeback, storming into the lead thanks to a huge third-quarter run and then holding off Chicago during the closing minutes. Even though Rip City was having trouble putting the ball in the basket, the Bulls couldn't generate any offense either.
Rose left the game with 3:20 remaining in the third quarter and the score tied at 68. His Bulls would score only 27 points during the rest of the game. If you prorate that pace to 48 minutes, they would have put up an 85-spot.
Obviously that isn't going to cut it.
It was already becoming clear that while Chicago was still one of the three powerhouses in the Eastern Conference—along with the Indiana Pacers and Miami Heat— the other two were starting to separate themselves. If Rose is going to miss a significant amount of time, the Bulls will fall into the second tier of teams in the weaker conference.
How exactly are they supposed to generate enough offense in his absence?
According to Basketball-Reference, the Bulls entered the game scoring 100.3 points per 100 possessions. That was already a remarkably low number, one that left the team ranked just No. 25 in the NBA. Without their No. 1 option, the man who creates just about everything when he's on the court, scoring points might just be a hopeless endeavor.
Rose's return from injury already wasn't going as planned. He entered the game against Portland shooting 35.9 percent from the field and recording 3.3 turnovers per game while dishing out only 4.4 dimes each contest. All of those numbers got worse after Friday night's game.
There had been signs of pre-injury Rose returning to dazzle fans—especially in the first half of both the game against the Blazers and the preceding one, a second-half blowout loss to the Denver Nuggets—but he was still struggling.
This could be the worst news yet, though.
Lets cross our fingers and hope for the best. It doesn't matter whether you're a Bulls fan, a Heat fan, a Pacers fan or a neutral bystander who just enjoys NBA basketball.
This sport is more fun when Derrick Rose is on the court.

Change can be scary. Change can be uncomfortable. Change makes us do things differently than we have always done them. Differently, perhaps, than we would prefer to do them. At one point or another in our lives we have all felt this way about change. It's human nature. The desire to avoid change makes things feel safe. And, for many of us, avoiding change also provides a bit of a respite from all the other chaos in our daily lives. As humans we naturally crave routines, "the norm", and the status quo. Our prevailing attitude is "don't make ripples in this little pond I call my life". Like it or not though, change is necessary. (Okay, if it makes you feel better we can even say it is a necessary evil.) Call it what you will, change is necessary. As George Bernard Shaw so eloquently put it, "Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything".
Just think for a moment of all the things you enjoy in your daily life that would not exist had it not been for change pushing us toward progress and the opening of people's minds to a different way of doing things. The smart phone, tablet, or computer on which you are reading this blog…your favorite playlist on Pandora or Spotify…that fact you can buy pretty much anything you want without ever leaving the comfort of your living room…all perfect examples of how change has pushed us forward toward what society, for the most part, calls progress.
I like the John F. Kennedy quote in which he said, "Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future." Change does indeed help us progress and move forward. As humans we should learn to be more open to change and be less attached to how things are now or how they used to be. We cause ourselves so much stress, anxiety, and unhappiness when things change. We rob ourselves of joy, freedom, and opportunity…if only we could learn to be more mindful of our attitude and state of being when it comes to change.
Maya Angelou once said, "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude." And quite frankly those are just about our only choices, if we are looking at this from a productive standpoint. (In other words, sitting around and complaining about change is technically an option, but not a very effective one, nor one for which most of the people around you will have a high tolerance level.) Change is going to happen…everyday…all around you. Choose an attitude of mind that puts a positive spin on that change, for your sake and the sake of those with whom you interact on a daily basis. Negative attitudes, thoughts, or comments don't change things. Look for the new opportunities in change. Look for the new lessons to be learned, the new experiences to be had. Look at how the change can make your life even just the smallest bit better today than it was yesterday. Work toward being grateful for all that change brings you. So let go, breathe deeply, and embrace change when it comes your way.

To gift a plot you must be the plot owner OR the mayor and the plot must be unowned. The player receiving the plot must be a resident of the same town. To gift a plot to another player the command is
/plot gift <player_name>
There is a fee of 25 gold and is paid by the person using the command. If the plot is owned by someone then the gold is paid by the character. If the plot is unowned it is paid by the town bank. This fee is paid to the game for safely transferring a plot to another person.

First Impressions- (Acts 2-3)
The play Romeo and Juliet is about how two star-crossed lovers fall in love but have to keep their relationship a secret because their families are enemies. Acts 2-3 are about how Romeo and Juliet are trying to secure their marriage while still keeping it a secret. In Act 3, a big fight breaks out and Mercutio (a Montague) and Tybalt (a Capulet) are pronounced dead. Soon, Romeo is banished from the town while still trying to be with Juliet.
In only a few acts, a lot has happened in the Romeo and Juliet play. One part that I found was pretty exciting was when Mercutio and Tybalt were fighting and later when Tybalt and Romeo were fighting. Something that I found that was pretty questionable would be when Juliet says she would rather have like 1,000 more killed Tybalt's (her own family) than to be without Romeo. I still just do not understand why Juliet was willing to give up her family name for someone she just met, the same goes for Romeo as well.
The whole love at first sight idea has come a long way in the play. This idea of love at first sight is progressing in such a fast way already Romeo and Juliet confessed their love for each other and are about to get married. Not only did they do that, but Romeo and Juliet are willing to give up their families names in order for them to be together.
One question that my classmates and I came up with before reading the play was, does not at first go both ways (do both people feel the same way)? Since we started reading the play, I can confirm that love at first sight can go both ways. Right away, both Romeo and Juliet confessed their love for each other and wanted to get married. This was right after they saw each other at the Capulet party. This shows that love at first can go both ways, but it might not always be the case.
In the play, many things have happened without a clear understanding of who is responsible for them. I believe that Romeo is responsible for many things like deaths, character developments, and many more. For example, if Romeo decided to fight Tybalt in the first place maybe no one would have died. Also, maybe if Romeo didn't get over Roseline so fast, many other events that followed would not have happened.
Juliet + Hate- (Character Analysis)
In acts 2-3, Juliet shows a lot of hate as her character is played out. She mostly shows her love for Romeo as she is not expressed as much as Romeo was. However, she shows hatred in many parts like when she first realizes Romeo is listening to her thoughts to when Romeo is banished from killing Tybalt.
1. In this scene, she finds out that someone (Romeo) was listening to her private thoughts (about Romeo) and gets angry that they heard her.
2. In this scene, she hates Tybalt for starting the fight and she hates that Romeo is banished from her town.
|1. This provides evidence as to why Juliet was so angry at first when she found out that Romeo was listening to her thoughts.
2. This provides evidence as to why Juliet was so angry while talking to her Nurse about the fight and Romeo's banishment.
Mercutio vs. Tybalt-
In Act 3 scene 1, Mercutio and Tybalt fight. At first, Romeo is challenged by Tybalt but says, "Tybalt, the reason that I have to love thee Doth much excuse the appertaining rage To such a greeting. Villain am I none. Therefore, farewell. I see thou know'st me not" (3.1.48-36). Since Romeo does not want to fight Tybalt, Mercutio takes his place in battle. Mercutio is then hurt and later dies because of Tybalt.
Who is the blame for their fight? It is not clear however, there are many different ideas on what or who is to blame. At first, I strongly believed Romeo was to blame for the fight. Maybe if Romeo fought Tybalt in the first place no one would have died. Maybe if Romeo fought he could have tried to calm Tybalt down. However, after hearing other peers opinions, I now feel that hatred between the two families is to blame. If there was no hatred, no one would have fought to begin with meaning that no one would have died.
Why might Shakespeare have killed them both off so quickly? This question confused me very much. I do not understand why Shakespeare would kill off the characters so quickly since one was known for his wits (Mercutio) and the other for his intensity (Tybalt). However, I feel as though Shakespeare killed them off so easily because it gives the play more suspense and adds more drama.
Zeffirelli vs. Luhrman-
In class, we watched both versions of the Mercutio vs Tybalt scene. Each movie captured the hatred between them in different ways. In Zeffirelli's version, Mercutio was wittier and kind of making a joke of things. It kind lighted the mood even after Tybalt was very angry and wanted to fight. Luhrman's version was much more serious while Mercutio and Tybalt were talking. There was no remorse and things were much more brutal showing more hatred between the two.
Not only was the way the scenes were played out different but also the camera work involved was different too. In Zeffirelli's version, the camera work was shot from farther away, following the bodies of the two men fighting. In Luhrman's version, the camera work was much closer to the actors facing making it seem more intense and more fast-paced.
Even the character development was different between the two movies. In Zeffirelli's version, the characters seemed more relaxed like they were just talking to each other and not fighting at all. In Luhrman's version, the characters showed more emotion and the scenes were more advance and real looking, especially when they were fighting. Luhrman's version, to me, felt more compelling and it moved in into believing that the fight was actually happening.

So You Want to Write a Proper Picturebook at Baboró 2018
This week at CBI, we have a guest blog courtesy of Shona Leahy! Shona attended #ProperBookGalway at Baboró International Arts Festival for Children last weekend and has some tips for people looking to write or illustrate picturebooks!
At a recent event hosted by Baboró and Children's Books Ireland, authors, illustrators, publishers and booksellers gave advice for those hoping to publish their own picturebooks. The day long event was called 'So, You Want to Write a Proper Picturebook?' and featured four panels dedicated to giving aspiring authors and illustrators advice on how to write, illustrate and publish their own picture book. Here's some of the main advice from the day!
Getting Started as an Author or Illustrator
When you are getting started it is important to attend events and meet other people involved in the business. They can give you advice and help you get familiar with the process of writing and publishing your own picturebooks. Niamh Sharkey (below) advised people to keep reading books about how to write and illustrate picturebooks should be considered before you start to write. This is an alternative means of understanding how to create a picturebook. If you want a better understanding of what it takes to make a book, you could follow the example of Tarsila Krüse, and write and publish your own book.
Where Do Ideas Come From?
It can be difficult to come up with ideas. For Patrica Forde, Lucinda Jacobs, and Sadhbh Devlin (below), inspiration comes from their encounters with people and their childhood memories. Ideas like these create an emotional tug for the reader. It is important to change and adapt the story. You have to give the character a problem to overcome. This will make an enjoyable story. Sometimes you will need to go through a lot of story ideas before you find a good one.
Show Don't Tell
It is important to use both pictures and words to tell a story when writing a picturebook. Picturebooks are usually around 500 words. It is difficult to keep a story short. Drawing rough pictures can help to keep when it comes to editing the story as you can see where the picture might tell the story which will help you cut extraneous text. It has helped Sadhbh Devlin when she edits her books. Don't be ashamed of your drawing skills, this is a tool to help you imagine your book. You should only send the picturebook text to publishers however.
Rhyme and Rhythm
Rhyming picturebooks have become more popular in recent times, but they are not easy to do right. When writing a rhyming book, it must be a perfect rhyme. The rhyme must not depend on the way that people pronounce the word. Don't compromise the story for the sake of a rhyme. If the word doesn't fit or disrupts the rhythm don't use it. Rhythm is important for the story regardless of whether the story rhymes or not.
Writing and Trends
Connor Hackett recommends that when you are writing you shouldn't be writing for trends. There is no point writing for trends. By the time a trend is identified it is too late and is already passing.
Submitting to Publishers
It is important to read and follow the submission guidelines. In order to save time, you should submit to more than one publisher at once. However, don't submit to them all at once as you won't get a second chance. Michaela McDermot passed on some advice she had heard at the CBI Conference from author M.G. Leonard. She said to identify your top twenty publishers. Submit to your top three and if you get any feedback, edit before trying the next three.
Benefits of Dummy Books
Peter Donnelly and P.J. Lynch discussed the benefits of dummy books for illustrators. Dummy books are impressive and can't be ignored by publishers unlike digital copies. When submitting a proposal, it is wise to include one coloured spread to give the publisher an idea of what the book will look like. Only doing one detailed, coloured page makes it easier to abandon the work if it is going nowhere and to make changes if necessary. Submitting a dummy book as an author isn't necessary, and may be unwelcome if you aren't following the publishers submission guidelines. As an illustrator, submitting your portfolio is also perfectly acceptable, don't feel you need to create a dummy book to submit as this could be expensive!
Promoting Books is Really Important
It is important to meet with children to promote your book and is a necessary part of selling your books. When meeting children and reading to them, it is important to plan your performance. You need to keep their attention so having props can be good. Performing the book can teach you about the flow of the book and you will be able to tell whether or not the book will work. You need to keep in mind that promoting will take up a lot of time and you need to make time for creating.
Books as Gaeilge
Tadhg Mac Dhonnagáin is a publisher at Futa Fata. He spoke about writing and illustrating Irish language books. It is important for those who are writing books in Irish to be fluent in Irish. This will allow them to participate in Irish based events. Having Irish is not as big of a requirement for illustrators as the manuscripts can be sent to them in English. If you are considering writing a book in Irish don't use Google Translate to help you as it is not always accurate.

"The Biggest Fan" is the fifty-seventh episode in the Sonic Boom television series. It first aired on 10 December 2016 in the United States and on 8 April 2017 in France. In the episode, Sonic is pestered by Mark the Tapir, who weasels his way into a position as Sonic's assistant. Eventually, Mark crosses the line and captures Sonic and his friends.
The entire episode share many similarities to the Stephen King novel, Misery. During the production of this episode, the staff of Sonic Boom researched more of the general fandom rather than the Sonic fanbase specifically. Mark in particular was designed with the general fan-type character in mind rather than a specific person. Many jokes about the Sonic fandom are made in the episode.Egg Mobile, Psychokinesis, Team Sonic, Sonic & Mega Man: Worlds Collide, Jazwares

On Angel Island, the survivors find themselves face-to-face with a legion of Zombots, including some of their infected allies. Sonic admits that the situation is bad: having charged himself up on Chaos Emerald energy, Zavok was blasting the island with fireballs while using his souped-up electromagnetic powers to throw Zombots to the island's surface. Knuckles complains that Sonic always brings trouble to his island and states that there is nowhere left to run, but Sonic says that he has a plan and asks Knuckles to trust him. Read more...
In the Mystic Ruins, Big relaxes at his house and watches the sunset with Froggy. He states that no matter how many times they have seen it, it was still pretty and asks if Froggy agreed; the frog simply responds with a ribbit, to which Big agrees with. The cat then mentions that he has not seen it in a while as Froggy had led him on a long adventure. First, Froggy led Big all the way to Vista View, where he fished in the sewage system. There, Big met Sonic who was running through and they greeted each other. The hedgehog left as quickly as he came, leaving Big to continue fishing. Read more...

Before I write about the friend, let me do a little hospital update. A new woman got pushed in to occupy the spot next to me. She looks like an old person who looks good for her age. Or maybe she looks old for her age. I wouldn't know unless I actually know her age which I doubt I'll find out. There's not much that's worth writing about other than the fact that I'm glad I've seen a prostitute so that the first boob I've ever seen is not the boob of a dying old woman. She was probably operated on recently because she's naked under the blankets. She tells the nurse that her arm is numb and so I got to see 60% of her boob when they were looking at her arm. She maintained that level of exposure for a long time. I'm not proud to say that I glanced over many times to see if I could see more of the boob. Surprisingly, they were able to keep the nipple perfectly concealed during that entire time. This was not a proud night for me. It would've been embarrassing if someone caught me looking and told me to look away.
I feel like anything I say now will have no credibility because I just made myself out to be quite a pathetic perverted loser. Anyway, let me write about this friend that I mentioned in the title. My friendship with him is a bit of an odd one. I met him in high school, in grade 9, when we partnered up for a few science projects. We never chatted in school but we talked quite a bit when I was over at his house working on those projects. We seem like we're friend-compatible but we never really became friends because neither of us were particularly looking for more friends.
That was pretty much the extent of our interaction in high school. After finishing high school, I got invited out to play soccer, basketball, and other sports quite often because I'm a sporty guy and not a douche and they could always use more players. I met this friend several times during these sport gatherings and we were friendly with each other, but there was no special connection or anything. Within the next 2 years, this guy invited me out to several 1-on-1 activities. We played basketball once, just the two of us. We also played tennis and did 5k runs together several times. I was invited to play Rock Band and other games with him on a number of occasions. I never initiate contact though. He does the inviting every time and I say yes to it every time.
I never thought anything of it but when I think back on those days, it almost seems like he's making an effort to befriend me and I just go along with it, without putting in any effort of my own. One time, he even invited me to go swimming with him, just the two of us, at night, at his uncle's condo. In retrospect, that almost sounds like a gay experience. There was nothing gay about it though. We never touched each other, not even accidentally or "accidentally". I also knew that he had a girlfriend so it didn't cross my mind that the whole thing might've seemed a little gay.
About a year ago, he invited me out to brunch, just the two of us. Okay, I made that sound gay on purpose. It wasn't actually brunch. It was dim sum which is a Chinese meal between breakfast and lunch so it's kind of like brunch except it doesn't have any of the romantic connotations. Chinese restaurants are not romantic at all. I agreed to go at first but for one reason or another, I bailed out in the end. I don't remember the detail, but it wasn't a firm "date" and I already ate lunch by the time he contacted me that day. I also didn't have a car that day. He didn't offer to drive and I didn't ask because it wasn't like I really wanted to go anyway.
This past Saturday, I saw him posting on facebook, asking if anyone wanted to have dim sum with him on Sunday. No one responded and I know exactly how sucky it feels to post something on facebook that everyone ignores so I decided to reach out and ask if he wanted to go with me. He said sure, so I figured we had a "date". I tried to set up a tentative time with him but he didn't respond. He continued to not respond until Sunday evening when he said, "Sorry, I had dim sum with my girlfriend. We'll go next time."
Is it just me or was that pretty shitty of him? He should've at least had the decency to tell me if he was going to cancel instead of making me wait around all day. This is really starting to sound like some gay relationship drama. Not that he's done this to me before (or at least not that I remember), but it seems all my friends have done this kind of shit to me. Not only do they cancel plans, they play these stupid bitch-hunting games where they don't respond. Fuck this shit. I don't need "friends" like these. Is it any wonder why I dislike people as much as I do? Everyone around me behaves so damn disrespectfully.

Brad Ausmus Is Coming Back For One More Season, For Some Reason
Well, Brad Ausmus, manager of the Detroit Tigers, got a large reprieve over the weekend. Everyone thought he would be axed as the manager and even some media individuals guaranteed he wouldn't be back. But he and his entire staff will all be back next season.
This is why I think the Tiger organization did this move: Because many baseball people felt he had to deal with many injured key players. Also, the pitching staff just flat out smelled.
This season was an absolute disaster to say the least. Players hurt, the GM was canned, internal strife in the dugout (McCann and Iglesias). The Tigers got rid of three outstanding players--in return they received very good prospects. That's just what they are--prospects.
Ausmus was hired by the former GM who is now at Boston. Ausmus better understand this team needs to be better next season. If not he will no longer be in Motown. The Tigers and their owner are rumored to go on another spending binge. If this happens they could be back. There are some very good pitchers available in the offseason free agency market.
All I can say is Brad Ausmus can't pitch or hit, but this team needs some fire power next season.
