ORLANDO–The Hawks opened the East semis by suffering a historic beat down. it was their largest playoffs defeat since the team moved to Atlanta. The Atlanta Hawks lost 111-76 at Philly in '82 and the St. Louis Hawks lost 133-75 at Minneapolis in '58.
– The Magic's 43-point victory margin was their second largest in postseason franchise history. Their largest lead of the game was 46; their largest lead during the regular season was 38 in that Jan. 9 game vs. the Hawks. They've won their last four home games against the Hawks by an average margin of nearly 32 points.
– Not surprisingly, the Hawks talked afterward about how this is just one game in the series. Yes, they said they can regroup. Yes, they can come up with a plan to beat Orlando.
– "Honestly, it would be harder if we lost by one point on a buzzer beater," Jamal said. "A game like this, you shake it off and move on."
– "It's one loss," Al said. "We can't let it be a snowball effect. We have to figure something out and play hard."
– "We'll bounce back in Game 2," J.J. said. "It's a long series. Anything is possible. We just need to look at the tape and make adjustments."
– There wasn't much conviction behind their words. But what else can they say? That they don't have the depth of personnel to deal with both Dwight and the Magic's skilled perimeter players? That they can't run an offense with nearly the same precision, speed and effectiveness as the Magic?
– How can the Hawks really believe they can beat the Magic, especially on this court? They can talk about the missed shots, but what about the way the Magic relentlessly shredded their defense, switches or no switches?
– The Magic privately have to be making plans for the East finals but they went along with the cliches for now. "We understand that it's only one game and in order for us to win this series we have to dominate every night like we did tonight," Dwight Howard said
– What's to say they can't do that? Certainly not the Hawks' defense. Or their offense. Or much of anything about the Hawks in Game 1.
– "We don't get discouraged," Smoove said. "We are a team that perseveres and plays hard. We just have to play better on the defensive end and make it hard for them to score."
– That's true but do the Hawks hope to hold the Magic to 70 points? The 10-point second quarter was something that shouldn't happen in the playoffs. The Hawks had seven turnovers and four field goals in the period. The Magic rebounded 11 of their 13 misses.
– The Hawks seemed to be clueless about how they wanted to attack the Magic. Shoot, there were times when Iso-Joe looked to be better than anything else the Hawks were trying. "We just have to stick with the plan," J.J. said. "I thought in the first quarter the plan that we had worked pretty good. In the second quarter we just fell apart and never regrouped."
– The Hawks were back to their "the shots just didn't fall" explanations. "We haven't had many games where Jamal, Joe, and Bibby just couldn't make shots," Woody said. "It puts too much pressure on you."
– It happened just a few days ago, in Game 5 against Milwaukee. The Hawks controlled that game until the meltdown because they played respectable D. They didn't come close to doing that against the Magic. Then again, the Magic ain't the Bucks.
– "We have to come up with a different game plan because what we have been doing hasn't been working," Al said. "We have to figure something out and play harder."
– They are back to the "play harder, come up with something" line of thinking, too. That's never a good sign.
– When Al got his first foul, Woody replaced him with Jason Collins and later replaced Josh with Zaza. "That's the coach's plan," Al said. "He felt Jason and Zaza in would be better. I have to deal with that."
– "I didn't think that hurt us," Woody said. "That was towards the latter part of the first quarter. We came in with Jason and Jason picked up a few fouls, but I didn't want Al going through the quarter with two fouls and now he's got to be looking over his shoulder going into the second quarter. I thought we played it right. That had nothing to do with second quarter letdown."
– The Hawks got frustrated with some of the calls, and there were some bad ones that went against them. But most of those came in the first quarter, when the Hawks actually were in the game. "The calls did not go our way but that's not an excuse," Josh said. "The refs are not going to help them beat us by 50 points."
– Howard had a big game. The Hawks' "no dunks" approach didn't work. But the Magic might have won with Marcin Gortat playing Howard's minutes considering how they punished the Hawks on the perimeter.
– At this point, I just don't see a way for the Hawks to guard everything they have to guard while also coming up with a plan to score efficiently against the Magic to make this a series. "We've beaten them before," Horford said. "We are the third seed so we knew we were going to have to play them. We put ourselves in this position. We earned this."
– When you look at what Boston is doing in the Cleveland series, what happened to the Hawks tonight, and how they huffed and puffed against Milwaukee, doesn't it start to look like they didn't close that gap so much after all?
– "They embarrassed us but we have have another one on Thursday and we will get ready for that," Bibby said.
– I'm out, Hawks fans.

It's one thing to play hard, play smart, and lose to a more talented team like the Magic.
It's entirely different to play like sh-t, do the same dumb sh-t that has caused you to lose winnable games all season, and get embarrassed on national television.

Who's the leader on this team? The coach? Joe or Josh? Bibby?
That seems to be the problem. When times are hard, someone has to motivate the team. We lack a team butt kicker, as well as a force in the paint.

When you take your All-Star center out of the game and put in a scrub who barely plays for the sole purpose of fouling, you are basically sending a message that your team can't compete without resorting to gimmicky bullsh-t.
On March 24, Jason Collins didn't play, Zaza played his usual 16 minutes, while Horford shouldered the bulk of the load guarding Howard. And the Hawks won.
Way to boost your team's confidence, Woody.

Hey Coach Woody! Put me in – I will fight for you and the ATL! I may not win – but, I will not go down without putting up one hell of a FIGHT!
Where is the Nasty. Mean, Fighters on this roster?
There was a female president who resided over Spelman College back in the early '90's.
She was a key note speaker at Ebenezer Baptist Church to Memorialize Martin Luther King's Birthday Celebration one year, her speech changed my LIFE forever & I went on to become a Doctor after that. Against – ALL ODDS! I went back to Graduate School and Mariculated at age 40:
She said:
There was a turtle traveling along a dirt path, and lying in wait – was a Lion. He was the King of the Jungle and all that he surveyed!
He saw the turtle coming his way and decided he would have turtle soup for lunch on this fine day. But, as the turtle traveled at a snails pace, the Lion decided he would take a little nap and upon awakening, the turtle should be right there in front of him & right on time for lunch.
As the Lion awakened, sure enough Mrs. Turtle was right on time. So, he picked her up and pressed her against his nose and said – Yum Yum I think I will have turtle soup for lunch.
The turtle replied, "Oh Mr. Lion, with your beautiful mane and fierce roar – You are King of the JUNGLE and ALL that you survey! If I got to go, then I got to go! But, before you eat me for lunch? Can you please put me down for 2 minutes and then have your way?"
The Lion said to himself, "Why Not? For, she could never escape me!". So, he sat the turtle down.
That Turtle flipped backwards, then forward, she jumped up and down and all around – That turtle kicked and yelled and screamed and created a lot of dust and made one hell of a RUCKUS!!!!
When Mrs. Turtle was done – she said, "OK Mr. Lion – Thank You Very Much!"
The Lion scratched his head, and retorted, "I have worked up one hell of an appetite from just watching you – what was that RUCKUS all about?"
Mrs. Turtle replied, "Like I said, if I gotta go – then I gotta go….But, I want everybody that comes down this pathway to know – That I PUT up One Hell Of Fight!"
That's all I ask the Hawks to do! FIGHT & FIGHT & FIGHT some more!
I will respect you more – I if you do!

Before I go to sleep, I'm going to restate a question I asked during the game.
Those of you who adamantly insist that Woody is right not to play Teague — I'm looking at you, northcyde, Ree Roe, etc. — tell me one thing Bibby has done this postseason better than Teague.
Defense? Not even on his best day.
Moving the ball? No.
Getting in the lane? No.
Leadership? No.
Shooting? That's the one thing you would expect, but even there, he's shot well in three games and terrible in the other five.
So tell me, what exactly do the Hawks gain by playing Bibby over Teague? I'd love to know.

I really wish that just once, Woodson would take his chances with allowing Horford to play big minutes against Dwight Howard. Al is the best post defender on the team, and statistically, the best post defender in the league. History has shown that Dwight's scoring against Al has been extremely limited. Tonight, I think he had a total of 4 points against Al, with Al not fouling him at all. Woodson obviously realizes how valuable Al is and that is why he wants to keep him out of foul trouble, but the strategy of taking him out of the game so early with just a single foul is hurting more than it is helping. Every single time Dwight Howard has a dominant game against the Hawks, Al plays very few minutes in comparison to his average. I'm sick of all the attention Woody puts on Dwight. He's not the problem, the shooters are. Maybe by some miracle, Woody will try playing Dwight straight up with Al at some point in this series.

"Wdsn & his favorite student [MB] must go.

I really don't have a beef with any of the players, including Joe, for the Hawks' shortcomings. The Hawks just need a coach that is going to emphasize ball movement instead of encouraging ball-hoggery. I'm increasingly doubting the wisdom of giving him a max contract, although I can't think of any halfway-decent alternative, but I think he can definitely thrive as the centerpiece of a better offensive scheme here in the ATL.
I don't even really mind Bibby, but there's no question in my mind that he's a backup at this stage. The starting point guard job next year has to be Teague's to lose from the first day in training camp.
May 5th, 2010
3:10 am
If Teague wants to be the starting point guard for this team, he's got a lot of work to do over the summer, because at the moment he is not even at bibby's level. He definitely has the physical gifts to be a stud in this league, but his basketball fundamentals are extremely raw at this stage.
May 5th, 2010
3:12 am
Najeh . . . you know what Bibby's main asset is.
It's the same asset that Derek Fisher possesses. It's his ability to knock down jumpshots, especially when the double team comes to JJ. He's our leading 3 point shooter in the playoffs so far. He was shooting 44% from three before tonight.
With the way this team is constructed, the guards MUST be able to knock down jumpshots. And not just during garbage time.
The one thing I've wanted to see Teague do, is dramatically affect a game just one time when the game is still in the balance. Not when the game is virtually over. During that time, there is no pressure on the kid. But when he's in the game during the 2nd quarter, I just want to see if he can be a spark to a run, or play a high level of basketball for a mere 5 minutes.
Fact is . . whenever Teague enters a game with it still in the balance, he almost never affects the game. He's just . . . . out there.
That's why he doesn't play, even with Bibby in decline.
He's not going to be just given playing time, if he can't even affect the game.
May 5th, 2010

I Could Be Wrong But It Always Seems You Waste More Energy Playing Deffense Then On Offense. So With That Being Said…….
One Of The Greatest Coaches In BasketBall History Once Told His Team "If You Make Them Work Defensively They Will Pay Offensively"
Meaning Get Them Running Around Make Them Work On The Defensive End And It Will Pay Off For Your Team When Your Oppenents Are On The Offensive End. There Players Will Be To Fatigued To Really Focuse And Shoot With Efficiency *WORK=PAY*
Looks Like They Where More Concerned About Trying Not To Let Howard Look Good And Have Sport Center Type Plays Rather Then Playing BasketBall. He Will Get Blocks And Dunks There Is No Stoping SomeOne From Doing That Wear Him Down Drive In Make Him Use His Feet If Your Shoots Are Not Falling. If All U Do Is Shoot Then All He Has To Do Is Jump And Get The Rebound No Energy Wasted. Which Means He Will Be Fresh To Dominate On The Offensive Side. Make Him Work The More You Take It At Him The More He Will Get Mad And Try To To Block It Since It Will Seem Like You Dont Respect His Presence And After Awhile He Will Just Start Slaping At The Ball And Commit Frustration Fouls As Well As Get Fatigue. You Can Always Play Your Opponents Game Sometime As Well Drive And Dish To The Open Player Get Them Running Around. Make Them Chase You. Carter Had To Chase People Around On The Bobcats Cuz They Moved The Ball From On Side To Anohter Or Dribbled And Drove In And Pulled Out And Dished To An Open Player When There Man Would Leave To Double That Got Him Tired So As Result He Couldnt Get His Shot Off As Much Because Of Fatigue. Thats What Happened To The Hawks Tonight Magic Had Them Running Around Wore Them Down And As A Result The Hawks Were To Tired To Shoot Efficent Shots. Hawks Really Dribble Threw There Legs In The Same Spot Till The Shot Clock Is At 5 Then Shot And All The Defender Does Is Stand There And Jump No Wasted Energy On The Defenders Part At All.

Salim Stoudamire > Jeff Teague
At least Salim could come into a game every blue moon, and make an impact.
Oh . . my bad . . Teague did show out in the final game of the season vs Cleveland, when he was basically given the green light to be "the man". But he needs to learn how to be an impact player, while being a reserve.
May 5th, 2010
3:19 am
Jokeman, you make some great points above. I definitely think that some simple ball movement and player movement on the offensive end could do wonders for the Hawks both offensively and defensively. Also, attacking Dwight Howard with drives is a great strategy. It worked wonders for Gerald Wallace and Charlotte. If the Bobcats had more offensive firepower, they could have won that series.
May 5th, 2010
3:33 am
As I've said . . . the Hawks have ONE SHOT in this series. . . and that is for JJ and Jamal to play at a very high level, especially offensively. They're the 2 guys on this team who have the potential to carry the team offensively. If they can get going, that should make life a little easier for the others.
That's the only way folks.
The job of those two in this series, is to prevent those scoring runs like you saw tonight . . . by making shots, whether they're open shots or contested shots. When both of them play as horribly as they did tonight, especially JJ once again with the turnovers ( but not the shot attempts ), the result will be major blowouts.
That's who we are. We've depended on those 2 all year for offense. So they have to lead us in that area.
May 5th, 2010
3:40 am
"Najeh . . . you know what Bibby's main asset is.
It's the same asset that Derek Fisher possesses. It's his ability to knock down jumpshots"
Bibby shot 8 for 9 in Game 1 against Milwaukee. Since then, he has shot 37% from the field. Considering that knocking down jump shots is his only ability left, he needs to be a hell of a lot more consistent than that.
"With the way this team is constructed, the guards MUST be able to knock down jumpshots."
Nah. With the way this team is coached, the guards must be able to knock down jump shots. It's not like the skill set of the players on the team prevent them from scoring in other ways. Mike Woodson prevents them from scoring in other ways by insisting that the Hawks run the one-on-five offense. If the Hawks were given plays to run, like every competent offense in the history of the NBA, they wouldn't be so dependent on guards making shots.
The thing is, when I say that the starting job should be Teague's to lose in training camp next year, it's not because I think Teague is a great player. It's because Bibby is DONE. D-O-N-E. He is basically Eddie House at this point, except he gets paid the mid-level exception. If the Hawks had a halfway competent starting point guard, I wouldn't even be bringing up Teague's name. The fact is, Bibby entered this season as an above average shooter and below average everything else, and now at the most important time of the season, he isn't doing the ONE THING HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD AT. With that being the case, I'd much rather give Teague a shot to play consistent minutes with the starters and build confidence to show what he's got rather than seeing the corpse of Bibby letting every opposing point guard in the world treat him like Ben Roethlisberger treats college co-eds.
"The one thing I've wanted to see Teague do, is dramatically affect a game just one time when the game is still in the balance."
It's hilarious that you keep saying Teague to make an impact to get more minutes. What the hell is Bibby's impact, other than allowing every opposing point guard free reign to do whatever they want to do? He can't defend, he doesn't penetrate, he doesn't set his teammates up with easy shots, and for all the hype about how great of a shooter he is, in FOUR SEPARATE MONTHS THIS YEAR, he shot under 40% from the field. He is DONE. Maybe Teague doesn't make a huge positive impact — generally, rookies picked outside the lottery who play five minutes a game don't — but at least he doesn't make a tangible NEGATIVE impact.
Give me a f-cking break. Bibby is the 4th best point guard on this team behind Joe, Crawford, and Teague, and Horford is fast approaching at #5.
"Salim Stoudamire > Jeff Teague"
Now you are just f-cking delusional. Those flood waters must have really contaminated the drinking water supply up there. The only way Salim is better than Teague is if Bibby is guarding him.

It Looks Like Joe And Crawford Are Starting This Series Off The Same Way They Did Last Series In Milwaukee Against The Bucks. Which Is Not Good. *REESE* Woodson Should Show Them That Film And Show Them How Affective It Was For Charlotte. Because Obviously The Film Hawks Watch Arent Films Of The Prior Games Cuz It Seems Its The Same Thing Thats Happened In The Reg Season. But I Think The Only 2 Guys That Really Want To Play This Series Are Josh Smith And Al Horford But Woodson Will Pull Horford Early If He Has 1 Foul Which Will Be Hard To Get Him Going If He Continues To Do So, And Josh Of Course Since He Grew Up With Howard Will Have Alot Of Energy And Try To Out Do Howard. But Those 3 Early Fouls Did Hurt Because He Had To Sit For One And He Couldnt Contest Shots As Hard Becasue He Didnt Want To Foul Out Early But The Rest Of Them Just Seem Like They Arent There. But I Do Think Like Everyone Else Horford Can Guard Howard And Do A Pretty Good Job On Him. And Also Whats The Point Of Taking Him Out Because If You Do There Will Be No Need To Put Him Back In Cuz We Will Be Down 40 B4 You Know It And You Will Have No Choice But 2 Bench All Your Starters Any Way Like Tonight So He Should Leave Him In And Let Him Play And Get Going. Just To Frustrate Howard A Little. Even If He Has 1 Or 2 Fouls

You are 100% correct: Bibby is at this stage of his career strictly a spot shooter.
However, I think that 90% of the problem from his side is lack of effort.
A couple of quick examples: that off balance shot he made and that reverse lay up against the Bucks are examples of stuff that he could still do if:
1. He was in shape (weighing less 15/20 pounds);
2. He still played aggressive and brought effort.
Obviously he is not in position to consistently blow by defenders and get layups against Howard at this stage of his career, but he could try, like for instance Derek Fisher still does.
Fisher is fading fast but he always brings effort and aggressiveness. Even now that he is out right ancient.
Bibby pure and simply does not try to. He had a good game against the Bucks and now he "coasted" another game.
And where is the accountability? Nowhere, he's Woody's pet student and guaranteed a starting job even when he does not produce sh*t.
May 5th, 2010
3:53 am
*Najeh Davenpoop* The Only Reason I Would Say Reason Woodson Keeps Bibby On The Floor Is Because He Is Considered A Shooter And Regardless Of How Bad He Is Shooting Hes Still A Shooter And A Veteran So A Defender Would Have To Be Near Him Or Up On Him, In Woodsons Eyes This Stretches The Deffense Just A Little To Where Joe Or Crawford Can Get To A Open Spot And Jack Up A Shoot. But With Teague Out There I Doubt If A Defender Would Play Him As Heavy Or Close Leaving Him A Lil Free To Contest Shots And Possible Double Team, And Woodsons Prob Sees That As It Would Be 5 vs 4 With The Advantage Going To The Other Team

We are NOT Charlotte.
We can't play like Charlotte.

*North Clyde* Im Assuming That Comment Was Directed To One Of My Previous Comments Lol.
But I Wasnt Say Play Like Them I Was Just Saying Just Drive In Even If You Know Your Shot Will Be Contested Like Crawford He Is Good At Driving In The Lanes He Should Use That You Never No How A Game Can Change When You Be Aggresive And Take The Ball To The Rim. Calls Could Start Going Your Way 2 More Free Throw Attempts, Other Team Foul Trouble, Open Players From The Corners Etc Just Alot Can Happen.
May 5th, 2010
4:05 am
Also learn to draft players with some heart from now on. More Al Horford, less Marvin Williams. We need to get up high in the first round to get a center to develop (Hassan Whiteside). And later look at some guys who have skill and heart to go with their talent (Armon Johnson, Elliott Williams, Jordan Crawford, Greivis Vasquez).

The real gem was the exceptional service provided by all of the staff at the front desk, management and food service. Thank you Syracuse Sheraton Staff!!! February 3, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by unimpessed67 Needs improvement Room rug was vacuumed but soiled and had a worn appearance. We booked a room with queen size beds, but they were only full size. ALso, 2$$ for a cup of lobby coffee in the morning is a bit much after paying 200.00 for a room that was sub-par. March 11, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by KDE66 Club Suite Service - Excellent! We visited the 9th Floor Club Suite after attending the SU Game - and was greeted by Brandon. He was extremely friendly and helpful to all of us. He's an asset to the hotel and definitely made our stay a littlle better by being so welcoming. March 7, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by CeeCee Easy computer access and Wifi! Arrived for a short stay right before the big game. Everyone was very friendly and warm. The room was very clean and bright. Could not get over the wonderful down pillows and comfortable bed! There was a bevy of orange teeshirts everywhere! March 9, 2012

Rated 4 out of 5 by spggoldpreferredmember shocked by parking charge At check-in, I was shocked to learn that all hotel guests (including SPG gold preferred members) are charged $13 ($14 w/tax) each night for parking at this property. This policy was not called to my attention when making the reservation. August 13, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by RichardFernBchFL Staff is friendly. Internet and TV reception needs attention Overall the hotel is great. Recently the WiFi was 'upgraded' but outages occur in various parts of the hotel regularly, including the rooms. The movie channel signals hang up and are choppy every other minute - unacceptable and annoying. January 20, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Houston Perfect! Every thing was nice the staff was especially helpful....I like the feature of having to swipe your room card in the elevator before it goes up to the guest rooms. I had not experienced this before ..guess I need to get out more often. October 31, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by jenc wonderful location We were just traveling through on our way home from vacation, and we just needed somewhere to stay for a night. The hotel was very comfortable and within walking distance of decent restaurants. It's a nice place to stay in summer. July 24, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by MM14 Staff and Location Make This Great The staff are truly the difference maker here. They are always friendly and eager to accommodate.

Rated 5 out of 5 by NJParent Clean, convenient and great Very friendly helpful staff. Rooms are nice size and very clean. Elevator problem was addressed immediately. Very nice Club Lounge for a hotel this size. Only suggestion is to have a king bed in the Junior Suite...a queen, NO. August 31, 2013

Rated 2 out of 5 by Welldressed Missing Service is very slow, no bell hop offered to assist when checking in, or was not available, parking was not convenient either. Lighting in room very dim, bathroom door squeaked. One expects more from a Sheraton hotel. May 28, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by follygirl Weren't able to check in until 4 hrs. after check-in time The only complaint we had is that our room was not ready until after 7 p.m. and our daughter's room (she was staying with an entire high school marching band in a large # of rooms) was not available until after that! November 1, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by RBH53 Clean and Quiet I am very picky and have no complaints about this hotel. The staff was helpful in providing directions to the thru-way and even helped me find the hotel when I took a wrong turn. I loved the French Onion Soup. June 13, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by su50 Hotel stay was pleasant and relaxing. Pool was great. Looked small, but I saw it was marked on the bottom which is good for laps. Must be 20 or 22 yards long, which is great for estimating how far you swam. Only negative is paying for parking. January 18, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by JAlba18 Last Minute Stay Needed a place to stay for the evening and this hotel fit the bill. Only drawback was there was a wedding and conference going on which made for a much noisier evening and harder for my kids to get to bed. August 8, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jerry119 Very Pleasant Even though this hotel was under renovation, the hotel and room were meticulous. The staff was excellent and eager to help in any way needed. For my purpose, it was also within minutes of the airport. January 8, 2012

Just after three years of marriage, Avril Lavigne and Deryck Whibley have split up. Read more on the couple's break-up below.
Singer Avril Lavigne is divorcing Deryck Whibley, the frontman for band Sum 41, after only three years of marriage.
"She dumped him and told him she was leaving him. She wants to move on," a source revealed to Us Weekly, and also added that Lavigne, 25, forced him out of their $9.5 million, 12,000-square-foot estate in L.A.'s Bel Air. "Divorce papers will be filed any day now."
Whibley, 29, "is crushed," adds another insider.
Avril wrote on her MySpace confirming their split saying:
"Deryck and I have been together for six-and-a-half years. We have been friends since I was 17, started dating when I was 19, and married when I was 21. I am grateful for our time together, and I am grateful and blessed for our remaining friendship," the message reads. "I admire Deryck and have a great amount of respect for him. He is the most amazing person I know and I love him with all my heart. Deryck and I are separating and moving forward on a positive note."
Lavigne concluded the message by thanking her family, friends and fans for their support.
Lavigne's rep could not be reached; Whibley's rep had no comment.

Good Quote: On the Refrigerator as Work of Art
Ms. Puett sees the refrigerator as just as valid a territory for thoughtful arrangement as any other part of the house. "It's a really fun game," she said. "It makes moving through the banalities of life stimulating." - Artist J. Morgan Puett, quoted in the New York Times
Hmm. This quote made us laugh because we couldn't quite figure out what it meant. And yet the idea of arranging our fridge for something more than just convenience suddenly made us thoughtful. Maybe artists just have too much time on their hands - or perhaps there's something in this?
(Image: Phil Mansfield for The New York Times
10 Comments
I think that's going a little overboard.
Here's a piece of art in my refrigerator:
And I think this refrigerator is a work of art:
This is insane. Clearly J. Morgan Puett has too much time on her hands. But then again, it is a good excuse to get a glass front refrigerator.
I appreciate the beauty of those photos - but the day I start "artfully arranging" the shelves of my refrigerator they may just have to take me away.
i don't know...we create vignettes all over the rest of the house out of our functional items, why not inside the fridge? we certainly do it in our fruit bowls and on our pantry shelves. (are the people who empty their bulk grains and pastas and legumes into glass jars that they line up on a shelf and then admire not copping to "thoughtful arrangement"?)
we also do it on our bookcases, and in our bathrooms, with our shoes by the door, etc. what makes the fridge different? the only thing that would bug me about is if you ruined food in the process, i.e. how long can the above chicken leg go unwrapped?
i do like the idea out of storing my refrigerated leftovers in beautiful glass, and i don't mind the idea of being as careful with my food's display when i'm not eating it as when i am. we certainly don't mind the idea when we're inside an expensive grocery store - isn't that wholefoods' whole shtick?
I confess I derive joy from opening the fridge to a nicely arranged collection of delicious eats.
If you have a refrigerator that is large enough to artfully arrange, it's too big for your needs and probably wasting energy.
This feels like the possible beginning of a whole new level of potential snobbishness. First you have the people who are wealthy enough to buy more space than they absolutely need who can show off acres of tasteful (ultra minimalist) blankness. Now, you need to also have a half empty refrigerator that you can artfully arrange?
If you have that much empty space in your life, your place is too big for your possessions and you're heating or cooling inefficiently. I don't think people need to be crammed into every corner of their storage space and living space, but they also don't need to show off lots of nothingness so they can arrange a few items artistically.
with all due respect to busy people above, i have seen the inside of refrigerators artfully arranged to several purposes.
an older friend, who was raised in Germany and England, always puts a tiny vase of flowers, very small, in the center of her fridge. this little surprise helps her keep her fridge from becoming 'duty,' and remaining 'nourishment.' i now do the same.
one beautiful arrangement i saw helped me, as a vegan. grapes, pesto, green pasta, washed lettuces, and crudites were interspersed to create a green and healthy wonderland inside the fridge, a clearer path to freshness and health. i have begun arranging by colour, at least. it didn't take much time, just a slight shift.
Many artists find ways to challenge us to think differently about things that have become utilitarian or the status quo.
Some artists concern themselves with political ideas or ideas about identity which have become too readily accepted.
But why not rethink personal and domestic spaces and everyday routines as well? I love the photo of the fridge that you posted above. It reminds me of old dutch still lifes with wild game, and of the eccentric Mrs. Havisham's preserved wedding cake in Dickens. It's crazy, in a wonderful way, to think that a fridge could serve as a vitrine or Victorian display case.
My inside-refrigerator art consists of various dried spills and oddly shaped mold growth.
This photo speaks to my heart. I open my fridge many times during the day, and each is a different visual experience. I have been know to arrange the fridge...working towards a zen experience. Then again in reality the fridge is a box in our lives, that bombards us (in our personal space) with brands and commercial messages. So I love this fridge which eliminates all of that and goes for color, shape and space.

Is there any way to prevent religious debates from turning into a big fight?
People discuss lots of things, politics, sports, anything
But when they discuss religious opinions, most of the time, they get all angry and try to win even with fight.
why is that? why that can't be a normal subject?
and more important, How can we prevent this?
Closing Statement from Farokh Shahabi Nezhad
Tnx everyone for their replies. I enjoyed learning from different aspect for this problem.
I can only conclude this : Don't argue with someone unless they are open minded and ready to be changed and challenged.

Feb 19 2013: I'm pleased that the Pope is aware of the status of heaven. May he passeth it to his successor. As an avid agnostic, I refrain from proselytizing ...one man's tranquillity is another's hell. Death has been, is now and will always be one of mankind's greatest enigmas ... but we have a smorgasbord of heavens.
Wilbert HuntFeb 19 2013: "Death has been, is now and will always be one of mankind's greatest enigmas."
Perhaps for you, but not for everyone. Many have died--clinically, that is--and have returned to share that experience. Dannion Brinkley comes to mind, one who has written extensively about his after-death experience, and then there's neurosurgeon and neuroscientist Dr. Eben Alexander, and his book, "Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife (2012) in which he asserts that his out of body and near death experience (NDE) while in a meningitis-induced coma in 2008 proves that consciousness is independent of the brain, that death is an illusion, and that an eternity of perfect splendor awaits us beyond the grave — complete with angels, clouds, and departed relatives, but also including butterflies and beautiful girls in peasant dress. According to him, the current understanding of the mind 'now lies broken at our feet'— for 'What happened to me destroyed it, and I intend to spend the rest of my life investigating the true nature of consciousness and making the fact that we are more, much more, than our physical brains as clear as I can, both to my fellow scientists and to people at large.'"
"I refrain from proselytizing."
That's a reasonable position. Similarly, what you believe is your business. And this brings us full circle to the discussion underway on this blog: I'm not here to convince you of anything. I have my proof, which is, for me, incontrovertible proof--a proof that buttresses my knowledge of an afterlife, but won't necessarily offer you sufficient proof to nudge you from a position of saying you don't know, to one of full knowing.
The problem emerges when one side or the other attacks the other for not believing as they believe. This is the experience I've often encountered when sharing my life story and experiences, rather than the courtesy of a hearing without being subjected to ridicule.
Feb 20 2013: That NDE sounds remarkably a lot like a dream or hallucination.
Butterflies and beautiful girls.
Perhaps what you might expect when unconscious or near death.
His interpretation could be correct. NDE are profound.
I understand how attractive this vision is and why many would use this to reinforce their hopes and beliefs. Personally I look for something more compelling as proof of life after death. I class it as unknown, but most likely the end of our conscious existence.based on everything we know with reasonable confidence.
Wilbert HuntFeb 20 2013: "That NDE sounds remarkably a lot like a dream or hallucination."
When taken out of context and serialized, anything can sound "remarkably ... like a dream or hallucination."
NDEs are similar to OOBEs. Let me assure you, the various worlds, dimensions, and realties are mind-blowing, and feature everything imaginable and unimaginable.
"His interpretation could be correct. NDE are profound."
As are OOBEs. Fortunately, you can experience the latter without the downside of NDEs. Much of what I know and have experienced I don't reveal, because to reveal them would strain credulity, such is the nature of my Out-of-Body Explorations, and the various entities and lifeforms I've encountered.
"I understand how attractive this vision is and why many would use this to reinforce their hopes and beliefs."
Attractive to be sure, but I, and many like me, don't need it to reinforce "hopes and beliefs." Our daily lives are reinforcement enough, if such was required, which it isn't.
"Personally I look for something more compelling as proof of life after death."
And that's your choice, and your decision. Although, I fear, without a similar experience as that of Dr. Alexander, that "compelling proof" will remain as elusive as science's inability to fathom the existence of an afterlife, and fully plumb the mysteries surrounding consciousness.
"I class it as unknown, but most likely the end of our conscious existence.based on everything we know with reasonable confidence."
Your "reasonable confidence" is misplaced, since what we know is profoundly limited and doesn't account for life's simplest experience, and reality--the sourcing of Life in body, and Mind in brain.
I harken back to this perennial limitation of science, fully knowing that science will never crack this simplest puzzle--for all its ubiquity--of human existence and the prevalence of intelligent lifeforms, albeit with man as nature's crowning achievement.
For me each day is as supernatural as it is natural.
Feb 20 2013: All of life's experiences are unknown ,until they become known. I would never expect a single human to apprise me of the sum total of all possible human experiences; Why then would I expect a single "NDE" human to summarize all NDEs for me ? On the other hand,nor should I discount any honest persons experience for the sole reason that it is unique or estranged to my own experiences.
Feb 20 2013: Good point Shawki,
I've had an NDE/OBE, researched hundreds of cases of NDE/OBEs, and while there are many similarities, there are also differences.
For example, I did not experience "angels, clouds... butterflies and beautiful girls in peasant dress", nor was my experience in any way connected to religion.
So, I agree with you Shawki, that I would never expect a simgle human to apprise me of that experience, nor would I expect a single human to summarize all NDE/OBEs:>)
It seems like this conversation got hyjacked to NDE/OBEs rather than the topic question....
"Is there any way to prevent religious debates from turning into a big fight?"
My NDE/OBE experience was not at all about religion, and there are many other cases that are not dominated by religion, so in my humble perception, the topic of NDE/OBE has nothing to do with the topic question as presented.
Feb 20 2013: Hi Wilbert, while I haven't had a NDE personally, a close relative has, and I have conversed with others who have. I even looked at that book. The experience has helped my family member lose fear of hell, but does not see it as absolute proof.
I'm not sure I need to personally have an NDE or OOBE to know enough to have a valid opinion. 'Knowing what we know about the brain, the mind and neurological processes I don't think it unreasonable to assume NDE etc is not a slam dunk argument for life after death.
Actually I had an OOBE once.. Perhaps I really did travel out of my body. I don't know. I tend to think it was just something going on in my brain, particularly given my state of mind at the time.
I heard of another Doctor who one day saw demons and angels erupting from the floor. He took himself to hospital and told them he was most likely having a stroke impacting a specific part of his brain. He was correct. Now maybe the stroke helped him see something real we normally can not see. But maybe it was just a hallucination.
All these experiences, from seeing a god or goddess to demonic possession causing epilepsy, to alien abductions, I don't discount people have experiences, just a bit skeptical of some of the interpretation.
I guess we agree people do have hallucinations and other amazing experiences and in some cases these are just natural albeit not to common brain misfirings.
Others are more mundane or common. When you watch tv and lose awareness of your surroundings you are actually in a light trance. If I spin like a dervish I might have visions. If you llock a human in absolute dark and silence within minutes we start imagining/seeing/hearimg things. When you meditate or pray, same parts of everyones brain are active.
How do you draw the line between stuff going on in our mind and correctly interpreting experiences as something supernatural touching some realm outside of our mental constructs?
Feb 20 2013: "Knowing what we know about the brain, the mind and neurological processes I don't think it unreasonable to assume NDE etc is not a slam dunk argument for life after death."
The only "slam dunk argument" that will resonate for the masses is the survival of death itself.
I don't presume the polemic skills to change minds with the persuasive power of words, or that my experiences will shift one's beliefs if those beliefs have hardened into denial, or a refutation of things termed supernatural.
All I have is my anecdotal experience, and even that I proffer with extreme care, cognizant of the general resistance to paranormal events for which my life has seen many during a lifetime of living straddled two worlds--the one we see, and the one we don't.
"I'm not sure I need to personally have an NDE or OOBE to know enough to have a valid opinion."
An "opinion" certainly, but an informed "opinion" would require a greater involvment, or, at the very least, knowing the subject experientially to a degree that would inform a position, the difference between learning a skill from a book, and actually learning it as an apprentice with real-world practice.
"I tend to think it was just something going on in my brain, particularly given my state of mind at the time."
Consciousness is powerful, and a "state of mind" can trigger the creation of all kind of phenomenon, or connect us with realities we're unaccustomed to seeing.
"I don't discount people have experiences, just a bit skeptical of some of the interpretation."
On one blog, I detailed for you an extraterrestrial encounter, one which ultimated with the prediction of an earthquake, three months in advance of it, giving the precise date, and time.
"How do you draw the line between stuff going on in our mind and correctly interpreting experiences as something supernatural touching some realm outside of our mental constructs?"
Consciousness is super-creative, and creates realities. There is no realm outside of us.
Feb 20 2013: Let me put it this way, I know some people who tried mushrooms and others who tired LSD.
One saw words and sounds as sparks coming from peoples mouths. Another thought the people around him turned in lizards, and another saw blue and red crystals in the air.
I had some of the most vivid visions in my life recovering from surgery.
Did the medication or psycho active substances open our senses to see something we normally can not? Or did the chemicals in our brain cause hallucinations?
When you damage or play around with the brain you can trigger weird experiences. Now when your brain is starved of oxygen or your body is near total shut down due to some trauma or illness it is perhaps not that surprising people have incredible experiences.
Again, they could be propelled into another magical realm. Actually it may be real, but not the afterlife. It could be a supernatural holding place before an afterlife or total oblivion.
Or it could be our poor brains going through some shut down process with hallucinations.
It is hard to test but I can think of some evidence that would make it more likely people are having a real supernatural experience. But have yet to see anything like this.
I guess it can be kind of insulting to hear a view like mine towards some profound experience with much attached meaning and interpretation. Again, I don't discount the experiences. And I hope not to offend.
Feb 20 2013: "Did the medication or psycho active substances open our senses to see something we normally can not? Or did the chemicals in our brain cause hallucinations?"
Brain and mind, and body and life are two of the illusions to which we're bound. Simply put, we believe that we're subject to the body--physicality--for sight, touch, taste, hearing, and the operation of the mind from which consciousness emanates.
We're not. But as long as this belief constitutes our reality, damage to the body can precipitate the death of the body, just as any chemical alteration of the brain can have a huge impact on thought, and therefore on the consciousness that seems to require a brain for its existence.
This seeming coupling of body and brain with Life and Mind accounts for the seeming cooperation that we see between them, a cooperation that ceases once we're free of the body, especially during sleep, an OOBE, or a NDE.
"Now when your brain is starved of oxygen or your body is near total shut down due to some trauma or illness it is perhaps not that surprising people have incredible experiences."
Indeed, as the astral body and consciousness are now free of physical limitations, and physical interpretations of experiences--free to create, and co-create whatever realities meet their fancy.
"Or it could be our poor brains going through some shut down process with hallucinations."
As I've stated, once the brain is out of the equation, the mind and consciousness can conjure up an infinite number of possible experiences, and do so without the physical limitations that once attended such creations.
We're not our bodies, but we're made to believe that we are. This illusion serves a purpose. Without it, our connection to the physical world wouldn't be as strong--and neither would we experience it with the same level of gravity and urgency.
Those living would be like me, neither here nor there, but a resident in both worlds, knowing the past and future with equal ease, and assurance.
Feb 20 2013: "I guess it can be kind of insulting to hear a view like mine towards some profound experience with much attached meaning and interpretation. Again, I don't discount the experiences. And I hope not to offend."
Not at all: I'm not offended. I understand how incredulous my statements are, and that they'll more likely be disbelieved than belived.
This world is really no different than other worlds we don't see. In all worlds and realities we're creating our experiences. This world is no exception.
What's different, or seem to be, is that we don't usually see the connection between thoughts and the reality that these thoughts create. I can. For me, thought and action, cause and effect can be immediate, just as it is in other realities that we term non-physical--so immediate that they may be considered one.
We can create Hell here as well as there. We can create Heaven here as well as there. And we usually do.
When we're co-creating, here and there, our realties aren't too dissimilar and we can converse one with the other on a common plane of understanding and experience, but we're not just limited to those understandings and experiences, but can spiral out from these centers of commonality and entertain our own private world, or own peculiar reality.
"Again, they could be propelled into another magical realm. Actually it may be real, but not the afterlife. It could be a supernatural holding place before an afterlife or total oblivion."
Here and there, your belief controls the quality and the quantity of your life. Here and there, like attracts like--fear attracts fear and love attracts love. Here and there, you get what you believe you will get. Here and there, truth is what you say it is, and you or your experience is what you say it is.
What amazes me most, is that few ever inquire about what it is that I have learned from being a denizen of this world and the next; they're usually intent on attacking and disabusing me of the notion of the supernatural.
Feb 20 2013: Thanks Wilbert. I've enjoyed reading and reflecting on your comments.
It's probably good to hear points of view and experiences different from our own.
Funnily enough there is some intersection of our views. While we diverge on others.
By the way I am curious about your experiences and insights but don't want to pry.
Feb 21 2013: THANK YOU!
I enjoy respectful exchanges, where both sides share their take on things rather than resort to preachments, or didaticism.
Serendipitously, I discovered this morning an e-mail in my mailbox from CoastZone, happily devoted to "Accounts of NDEs." I present a portion of it here for your perusal and that of future readers of this blog:
"Referring to those who experience NDEs as 'returnees,' he related an early case that he heard when he was stationed in the National Guard. The returnee said his NDE occurred after a drug overdose, and he was told 'it was not his time.' During his 'life review' he was shown that he was throwing away the gifts that God had given him. Once revived, 'that man...got up and walked away cold turkey from drug addiction,'-- the NDE absolutely turned his life around, he said.
"Price has heard of four different ways people exit the body during an NDE-- the tunnel of light happens in only about 40% of the cases. The medical idea that a brain deprived of oxygen explains the tunnel effect, doesn't account for why during the NDE, people report a joyous reunion, a life review, and instruction, and then when they come back they're a different person, he contended. Suicide, Price has learned from the accounts, is not a good escape option. Though people aren't punished for it, they are still aware of all the problems they had in their life, as well as the grief they caused their loved ones. When people were resuscitated from their suicide attempt, they came back with the knowledge that they had to deal with their problems, he said.
"Regarding hellish NDEs, Price shared a man's NDE account of being attacked by the claws of a T-Rex type creature. He would be healed only to be torn apart over and over again. When the man yelled 'help me Lord,' he woke up back in the hospital, and was subsequently able to turn his life around. Price also cited the case of Howard Storm's hellish near-death-experience, and how help finally came when he called

KALAMAZOO (WKZO) -- The CDC says the Flu has not yet peaked nationwide, as three more states were added to the list in the most severe category.
It may be because this year's flu shot seems to be less effective at preventing the flu bug.Health officials have been watching and recording and it appears the shots are only about 60% effective against the major type A and Type B flu strains that are circulating around this year.
Flu vaccines used to be 70 to 90% effective but for the last few years, they have lost some of their protective abilities. Either that or the flu virus have adapted.
Dr, Kareem Essani, a virologist at WMU says it provides no protection from a second B Strain whatsoever.
He still recommends that you get the flu shot. He says it should make the symptoms less severe, and that could be the difference between life and death for an elderly person with health problems.
He says even if you do get the shot, don't give up on washing your hands and maintaining other healthy habits. It's partly a matter of luck but you can greatly improve your chances if you work at it.

Conservative lawmakers preparing for the next big budget clash with the White House over raising the debt ceiling are ready to play "Let's Make A Deal" with President Obama.
Rep. Steve King, Iowa Republican, is suggesting that the GOP force Obama to give in and back passage of a Balanced Budget Amendment that could be sent to the states for ratification. He called it the "ultimate bargain of letting the debt rise again."
And he wouldn't stop there. King told the Heritage Foundation's Bloggers Briefing that he would also try to win from Obama the elimination of funding for Planned Parenthood and cuts to Obamacare funding.

32mm Shelf Support Jig - QTY:1 - 3KKN7
Fine craftsmanship is found in the details - things like dovetailed drawers and tightly mitered trim. So you won't win any craftsmanship awards just because your shelves don't tip, but you won't even be in the running if they do! That's why this jig is so valuable. It helps you drill precisely spaced holes on 32mm (about 1-5/16") centers. Two sets of stops make it easy to offset the holes consistently from the end or side. For the most consistent results, use spring clamps to hold the guide in position. Overall guide length is 23-7/8" with 18 guide holes. The self centering drill has a special nosepiece which mates with the jig, and uses interchangeable 5mm and 1/4" boring bits (Self centering drill, and interchangeable bits sold separately). Made in USA.

Remove all the colored cubes from each stage, set up crazy combo chains, learn the secrets of all the special cubes, and unleash the power of your pet sprite!
Go to www.CuberXtreme.com for additional and more difficult stages after you beat the Newgrounds stages!
CuberXtreme is my first puzzle game and second submission to Newgrounds. It was a lot of fun making it, especially with the new improvements to Flash 8. I hope you'll enjoy playing it!

Totally enjoyed it.
Really really good. I always enjoy these kinds of puzzle games. Not very unique, but just the smooth graphics seem to warrant the seal of NG approval. Keep up the work.

This is just too shocking of a quote to pass up.
Retired Brigadier Sultan Amir Tarar, once a major figure in Pakistan's spy agency ISI, said that the Taliban is ready to talk.
This comes on the heels of an attempt by the U.S, and its allies to buy off Taliban fighters by purchasing their weapons and giving them jobs.
Tarar, who has worked with the CIA and was schooled in guerrilla warfare at Ft. Bragg, also trained Taliban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar as a guerrilla fighter against the Soviets.
Tarar said that any attempts to split the Taliban will fail unless Omar is included. The reason is, and get this, because the Taliban are "big-hearted."
"If a sincere message comes from the Americans, these people (the Taliban) are very big-hearted. They will listen. But if you try to divide the Taliban, you'll fail. Anyone who leaves Mullah Omar is no more Taliban. Such people are just trying to deceive," said Tarar.
Those big-hearted guys known as the Taliban are the same people who destroyed the historical Buddha statues at Bamyan, closed schools for girls, massacred thousands of civilians at Mazar and have directed their attacks on unarmed civilians.
Quite a big heart.

When it comes to buying percale sheets, there is a wide array of places where you can buy percale sheets. The basic rule of thumb is that when you are looking for percale sheets, head to the bedding decor department where you will find a wide assortment of sheets of all kinds. If you are set on getting percale sheets, such stores as Macy's, which has a large bedding department, would be the place to check. However, if the mere thought of getting into a car and driving to a mall only to face crowds and sales people that aren't very helpful, you can shop online. By going online, you can do your own research, get as much information about a certain brand, and even find sales which you might not find at the store itself.
One of the websites to check when looking for bed linens of any type is Amazon.com. Although Amazon is mostly associated with books, these days you can purchase virtually anything you would find at any store that you can carry out. Bed sheets and other types of bedding are no exception. One good feature about Amazon is the customer reviews. Practically any item they carry is bound to have a few reviews from customers.
There are other options for online shopping. Some of the same stores where you can walk in and make a purchase such as Macy's or Target also have online services where you can buy the same item as you would at the store. One advantage shopping at these stores online have over the actual store is that the inventory is often larger than at the store. Because bedding make great gifts, it's not unusual to find many items out of stock at the store. If you shop online, you have an advantage because the particular set of sheets you want is shipped from the warehouse. However, online shopping is on the rise and it's best to do your shopping early before the holidays so that you can find what you're looking for.
Although online shopping may seem like a breeze these days, there are a couple of advantages store shopping has that you can't do online. First, you can buy the item at the store and use it the same day when you bring it home. Next (and this is even more important) is that you can touch and feel the bed sheets to make sure they're to your satisfaction before you them. However, you can touch and feel the sheets at a store without any obligation to buy and then go back home and order the same sheets online. The store may not have the size you need, or you may find a better price online, but you will at least know how the item feels before making a purchase.
