Magic Patchwork Vest 52 52
Weird Fit Gorgeous Fabric. I really, really wanted to keep this vest but is about the worst fitting garment I have ever tried on! Too small here, too big there, strange armholes and just a really odd shape everywhere!! April 9, 2014
fabric not up to snuff I bought this vest to wear for special occasions, but I am disappointed in the fabric quality--chintzy-- and in the fact that the buttonholes were clearly not designed to match the buttons attached. I will look more carefully next time for a good product. You should get this right. The price is high enough. February 3, 2014
Eye catching! Patwork Magic lives to its reputation. It truly works "magic" by classy-ing up any pairing, from board room presentations to casual Fridays. Can't beat this if what you're after is a sense of confidence & class without being uppity. January 31, 2014
Goes with everything Colors go well with everything and I love the pockets for convenience. This vest can be dressed up, worn to work and for weekends. January 26, 2014
Patchwork Vest The vest fits well and will go with many different colors. I like that versatility. January 20, 2014
Great for the holidays I wore this vest several times over the holidays to different parties and events. I wore it with white, navy blue and black long sleeve turtlenecks and black pants. It also looks good with my red scarf. If this was a jacket, the pattern would be overwhelming, but as a vest it adds some holiday vitality to plain colors worn underneath. Not sure how much I'll wear it during the year after a New Year's party but it will definitely be coming out of the closet again at Thanksgiving! December 27, 2013
It looked great in the picture It looked great in the picture but not on this gal. I'm too heavy. Sending it back. February 6, 2014
Festive vest good for the holidays I ordered size Medium but found it to be too large. I returned it for size Small. Exchange was very fast and I was offered free shipping on my next order for my inconvenience. December 14, 2013

Franz Kafka was an early 20th century author of German-Jewish descent, famous for writing nightmarish, grotesque, disturbing, and enigmatic short stories and novels. We say "enigmatic" because almost all of Kafka's works seem like they have really "deep" meanings that are difficult to pin down or identify. This must mean something, you say after reading a Kafka story, but what?!
In fact, Kafka's even got an adjective all to himself – the "Kafkaesque" – which you might hear thrown around by uppity college English majors. "Kafkaesque" refers to that unique combination of qualities Kafka's work can have, and the particular feel you get when you read his stories. It also refers to the particular set of broad themes his stories usually seem to revolve around (which also give them that distinctive "Kafka" feel): judgment and justice (or lack thereof), particularly divine judgment; the alienation or isolation of the individual; the "faceless modern bureaucracy"; the promise that there is meaning somewhere – in God, in life, in a justice system – and the frustrating failure to find it.
"In the Penal Colony," one of Kafka's most famous short stories (some would call it a novella), is certainly Kafkaesque. It's got the grotesque and disturbing elements down (more even than most Kafka stories), not to mention all that stuff about judgment and justice: it's the story of an elaborate torture/execution machine which kills "the guilty." As you'll quickly find out upon reading it, this story also has the whole "This must mean something, but what!?" thing going on, big time. But that's part of why we're here, isn't it?
So what's the scoop on the history of the story? Kafka churned it out in two weeks in 1914, in the midst of writing one of his three major (and incomplete) novels, The Trial. "In the Penal Colony" wasn't published until five years later, in 1919, though better late than never.
In fact, most of Kafka's work remained unpublished until he died in 1924. That was when a close friend of his, Max Brod, began collecting and publishing the many writings Kafka had kept private, including Kafka's three incomplete and very fragmentary novels. Until then, Kafka's scanty published work, which was written in German (though he lived in Prague), had only made ripples in a very dedicated but small segment of the German Modernist avant-garde – the experimental artist types who were always looking for the next new thing that rebelled against "the man." Once Brod had undertaken the publishing project, though, Kafka caught began to catch on big time with larger segments of the German-speaking public, though this was seriously hindered in the 1930s when the Nazis came to power, since they didn't like Jews or Modernists much.
Kafka's really big break came after World War II, and the recent events of the war and Holocaust made some of Kafka's darker visions of the modern world more compelling. After the first translations into English were made during the 1940s by a husband-wife team named the Muirs, his popularity spread like wildfire in the English-speaking world, as both critics and general readers discovered they just couldn't get enough of the Kafkaesque.
"In the Penal Colony," which was first translated into English 1948, quickly came to be recognized as one of his most important shorter works by almost everybody. It's even found a home among political activists or politically-minded critics who like to make use of it as a very lurid (a fancy word that means "vivid," usually in a bad way) depiction of the way a society can torture and control human bodies. (The politically engaged critic Edward Said, for example, used it this way, as have many fascinated by the theories of "power and the body" put forth by the philosopher Michel Foucault).
"In the Penal Colony" has also received much attention from the veritable industry of Kafka criticism that sprung up in the 1950s. Critics love Kafka for the same reason lots of students do: when everything in a story is so unclear but seems so meaningful, almost anything you say will seem really deep. And you can say a lot.
In "In the Penal Colony" a foreign explorer comes to a tropical colony and witnesses a judicial procedure that he finds totally barbaric and horrifying. Now, we hope you haven't seen anyone get gruesomely mangled by a huge, deteriorating machine. But we bet that you've been in a situation similar to the explorer.

OSPI measures school accountability in three ways:
Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) is the calculation required by the U.S. Department of Education that determines if a school is meeting standard in reading and mathematics. Annual benchmarks are set according to federal rules and are based primarily on expected student performance on statewide assessments.
Gil Mendoza
Assistant Superintendent
Special Programs and Federal Accountability, OSPI
School Improvement Grants are part of the federal Title I program, which provides money to districts and schools with high numbers or high percentages of students who qualify for free or reduced lunch. Priority for grant money was given to the persistently lowest achieving schools in the state. Schools were identified using a variety of factors, including performance on statewide assessments, AYP status and graduation rates.
Andrew Kelly
Assistant Superintendent
School Improvement, OSPI
The School Achievement Index was mandated by the Washington State Legislature and adopted by the State Board of Education and OSPI in 2009. It is currently used to select schools for the Washington Achievement Award. The Achievement Index measures all schools. It tells us how our schools and districts are performing in five key areas, how they are improving over time and whether they are closing the achievement gap.
These files have been corrected and reposted as of 12/5. District and school administrators are encouraged to review their Index results and report data discrepancies by December 15, 2012 to

Flood danger zone in Grand Forks may soon get some reliefGrand Forks, ND (WDAY TV) -- After years of planning, people in a south Grand Forks neighborhood are hoping to soon have one less worry.
By: Christine Boggy, WDAZ, WDAY
Grand Forks, ND (WDAY TV) -- After years of planning, people in a south Grand Forks neighborhood are hoping to soon have one less worry.
City officials are one step closer to building a bridge on Shady Ridge
court, an area that's often cut off during spring floods.
Shadyridge Court, south of Grand Forks, is generally a regular
neighborhood, but during spring flooding, it becomes a danger zone,
accessible only by boats and helicopters
Ken Vein/GF Safety Service Committee: "Should another severe flood
event occur, they're isolated from the rest of the property to the
west and it creates a very dangerous situation for those people that
have to go back and forth."
The township's request to build a single lane bridge was officially
approved by the city's safety/service committee. The bridge would provide residents living in that neighborhood a way in and out of their neighborhood when the Red River reaches 44 feet or more.
A joint powers agreement between the city and the township must be
reviewed since part of the bridge fall within city limits.
Ken Vein: "The bridge is outside city limits and once the final
annexation takes place then the bridge will be located win city limis
and the city of Grand Forks will be responsible for long term
operation and maintenance."
The proposed budget of 1.6 million will be paid by the township. Once
approved by the full council, the township will begin soliciting bids
for construction.
Ken Vein: "They're working with their engineers to get a completed
design and then they would wanna get a bid to make sure that bid is
within their estimated guidelines.
The proposal will be presented to the Grand Forks City Council tomorrow.

@ Seefy, Your link is not working D:
@ Sylux, Well not that theres anything bad but sometimes your own opinion about your own works may not be as accurate as adv from other people as some of the time people may be blinded by our own ego :C
@ Rio, The license thing is actually something I never thought off. I agree with you on the hour thing but I thing the work around if that if you are very confident with how many hours it will take, maybe you make a base fare of off that to begin with to provide a quote? Just something I thought off.
I find charging by pixel a bit weird...If its traditional like Seefy mention it kinda make sense as material cost and everything, but If its something for print on digital it just kinda...weird xD

Thousands of Syrians streamed across a bridge over the Tigris River and into Iraq's Kurdistan region on Thursday, August 15th. UNHCR Field Officer, Galiya Gubaeva, was on the ground with her camera.
Some of the most vulnerable Syrian refugees are children who have sought shelter in urban areas with their families. Unlike those in camps, refugees living in towns and cities in countries like Iraq, Turkey and Jordan often find it difficult to gain access to aid and protection. In a refugee camp, it is easier for humanitarian aid organizations such as UNHCR to provide shelter and regular assistance, including food, health care and education. Finding refugees in urban areas, let alone helping them, is no easy task.
In Iraq, about 100,000 of the 143,000 Syrian refugees are believed to be living in urban areas - some 40 per cent of them are children aged under 18 years. The following photographs, taken in the northern city of Erbil by Brian Sokol, give a glimpse into the lives of some of these young urban refugees. They show the harshness of daily life as well as the resilience, adaptability and spirit of young people whose lives have been overturned in the past two years.
Life is difficult in Erbil, capital of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. The cost of living is high and it is difficult to find work. The refugees must also spend a large part of their limited resources on rent. UNHCR and its partners, including the Kurdish Regional Government, struggle to help the needy.
Hassan is a qualified surgeon, but by a twist of fate he now finds himself specializing in the treatment of refugees. In 2006, as conflict raged in Iraq, he spent 10 weeks treating hundreds of ill and injured Iraqis at a refugee camp in eastern Syria.
Six years later his own world turned upside down. Fleeing the bloodshed in his native Syria, Doctor Hassan escaped to neighbouring Iraq in May 2012 and sought refuge in the homeland of his former patients. "I never imagined that I would one day be a refugee myself," he says. "It's like a nightmare."
Like many refugees, Hassan looked for ways to put his skills to use and support his family. At Domiz Refugee Camp in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, he found work in a clinic run by Médecins Sans Frontières. He works long hours, mainly treating diarrhoea and other preventable illnesses. More than half of his patients are Syrian refugee children - not unlike his own two boys.
During the two days that photographer Brian Sokol followed Hassan, he rarely stood still for more than a few minutes. His day was a blur of clinical visits punctuated by quick meals and hurried hellos. When not working in the clinic, he was making house calls to refugees' tents late into the night.

Warm, light and as simple as its name implies, our Ultralight Down Shirt uses premium 800-fill down for superior insulation and pack-to-nothing compressibility. The sewn-through construction, tight channel pattern and just the right amount of down increase versatility for use in more moderate temperatures and diverse activities; wear it over a baselayer when skinning in, then throw a shell over the top and you've got a BTU generator. The slim fit maximizes thermal efficiency, the Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish sheds precipitation, and the simplicity complements the function, from high-output endeavors to recovery evenings in the yurt.
- 10-denier ripstop fabric is superlight and strong
- Quilt pattern controls movement of down for optimal warmth and loft
- Silhouette is minimal and features a 1/4-zip to reduce bulk and weight
- Slim fit for thermal efficiency under a shell or as a stand alone layer
- 800-fill-power premium European goose down provides optimal loft and durability
- Self-fabric stuff sack
- Shell and lining: 0.8-oz 10-denier 100% nylon ripstop with a Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish. Insulation: 800-fill-power premium European goose down
- 167 g (5.9 oz)
- Made in China.
MaterialDown Insulation
We use down insulation in some of our products because of its excellent performance: down has a higher warmth-to-weight ratio than synthetic insulation, and it is also more compressible.
Patagonia's proprietary durable water repellent fabric finish, DWR, lasts substantially longer than standard DWRs. Garments with the DWR finish have like-new repellency after years of extensive use.

Helmet Sizing Information.To achieve proper helmet fitment, begin by finding your head circumference size using the method described below.
Remember that the helmet sizing you choose should fit around the crown of your head comfortably with no pressure points.
The cheekpads should fit firmly around your face. Once your chin strap is fastened, grab the chin bar of the helmet and move it side to side.
Your cheeks should move with the helmet, which should not slide across your face. Different thickness cheekpads can be purchased to obtain the perfect fit.
Head Measurement Instructions.Wrap a flexible tape measure around your head approximately one inch above eyebrows and ears. Use this measurement (in either inches or centimeters) to find your helmet size in the chart below.
Comment: Great helmet. Came with a clear/smoked shield. Excellent ventilation and very little noise. They don't show you in the pics but the helmet glows on all of the characters very well. It's no reflector but anything Ezra visible helps at night. Very happy with it. Great price and prompt delivery.

Most of the subject matter in Icon's
helmet graphics is very dark and sinister. The Hoodoo's subject matter is
definitely no different. Hoodoo is a religious practice that involves folk
magic. Spells, potions, and superstitions are all common elements of hoodooism.
This entire helmet is covered in skulls, bones, and dark coloration, and many of
the whiter areas give off a creepy glow at night. You have to wonder if there
isn't an unfortunate tale unfolding in this graphic. You start on the right side
of the helmet with this lovely little lady...person. Sure she has ram horns and
no pupils, and her purpose built accessories were likely designed to send anyone
or anything that crosses her path straight to the underworld but hey, nobody's
perfect. And look, she clearly had her nails done to match her trendy little
chain belt and do you think her lips match her sash bound pythons by accident?
Please. She knows what she's doing.
As you move around to the back of the helmet, a sinister plot begins to unfold.
An ominous looking ram's skull accompanies cross bones; an Iconic logo
synonymous with mischief adorns its head. Lurking behind is a zodiac with some
script that can only spell trouble for our lovely little demon possessed
ram/lady. The witch doctor has randomly scattered its bones and what do they
spell? That's right... Icon. Coincidence? Yeah, sure.
Moving to the left side of the helmet, the unfortunate outcome of Icon's
mischief becomes apparent. Our once lovely mistress of battle has been
transformed. She clearly doesn't make time to put her face on anymore and that
coupon she got to have her nails filled went straight to the trash. Even still,
run a straightener through that weave and a little Visine to get the red out and
who knows?

So, this is my first time to try the BFL challenge and my first time to try out the Myoplex shakes. Yesterday I mixed one pouch of the protein powder with a little over 8oz of skim milk. I found the shake to be very thick. It still tasted good, but just seemed to be an odd consistancy. Is this normal, or am I just reading the instructions incorrectly? Thanks,
I've never tried mine with milk but instead I mix it with water, frozen strawberries, and spinach. It taste like a milkshake that way. I normally use vanilla protein.
I'll give it a shot with water tonight. I figure I can always add more water if it is still thick. Didn't even think of that last night, though. I'll definitely have to try adding some frozen fruit in! That sounds great.
I use 12 oz of water and get a nice smooth shake. More than that is too thin and less is too thick for my liking. Back in the early 2000's, they used to suggest 16oz of water. I was still making them like that 6 months ago, but it was really thin. When I read the package and saw 8 oz, I tried that but thought it was way too thick. So I tried 12 oz and really like it.
I drink the Lean 15 shake....when I first tasted it with just water I could not drink it I thought the taste was horrible.... But then I mixed it with low-fat plain kefir and it tasted DELICIOUS! Plus kefir is so good for you, I am very happy to have found this recipe.
Keep in mind the difference between Lean 15, which isn't a complete meal and Myoplex, which is a complete meal. When having a Myoplex, it's all you need for that meal, meaning that adding milk or berries, or anything, is going to throw off the macro-nutrients meant for your optimal bfl meal.
Jessica Mighty Max ~ 2013 Body-for-LIFE Champion ~ Champion is a VERB!
I'm surprised that the Abbott folks haven't responded to this post and thread. I have been drinking the Myoplex Original powder packs for about 4.5 years. Their formulation was changed about 4 - 5 months ago. (Same is true for the ready to drink shakes, which now contain pea protein and "revigor"). Anyway, I was so used to making them up to 12 - 15 oz. volume with water, as the original formulation instructed, that I didn't really check the instructions out. One day I noticed the 8 oz. recommendation in the directions, so I contacted the Abbott Nutrition store folks. Turns out it was a misprint. I believe the updated labeling now instructs 15 oz. water, but I usually make my shakes a little thicker at 12 oz.
Once I discovered the joys of weight training, all other passions were transcended.
The amount of water is really to make it a certain consistency. I like mine thin, and others like it thick. It's of no concern, but I can't tell you guys how happy I am to see people are thinking about things, looking to refine, caring about being the best they can. Those are good qualities!
Sorry we missed this one! We would like to gather more details for Quality Assurance and would appreciate it if you gave us a call at 800-850-7677 Monday - Friday from 8:30am - 5pm, EST. Please reference case# 01365566 when you call.
If you could give us a call as well, we would like to pass along some additional details to Quality Assurance regarding your experience. Please reference case# 01365580 when you call.
~Tiffany, the BFL Team
Jessica, I'm always very eager to read you postings and learn from your amazing transformation. Thanks for staying on the forums :)
That's very kind, BflGalina. I appreciate that. BFL has changed my life beyond what mere words I can use to describe. I'm here for two major reasons, though numerous in aggregate. The 1st is that like everyone, I need the support, and simply love, get motivated by, am encouraged by, and respect this community. The 2nd is a sense of duty. Mike Harris was a friend, a good one. He remained on the forums literally until the day he died. He could have taken his winner's jacket, the one he finally earned, after all those contests, and rode into the sunset. Mike helped. Mike wanted to give back. He and so many others gave to me. I want to give back. And remember that it's not just the official champs, or those of us, like me, who just finished a contest, that can help. We can all lift each other up, and know that you do the same for others, and me, so thank you for that!

What Foods Produce Serotonin and how
A hearty meal not only induces sleep but also gives rise to a sense of well being. It is actually the work of the high carbohydrate content in the meal that induces such a feeling. Ingestion of increased quantities of carbohydrates, especially simple carbohydrates, increases the level of serotonin in the body, which alters the mood. Simple sugars like candy and sweets can convert sadness and sorrow to an 'all's well with the world' attitude for about an hour or two. Complex carbohydrates also increase serotonin levels but the presence of proteins restricts the production of serotonin.
How does this actually happen? The three neurotransmitters, dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin that affect mood have been studied extensively in relation to food. There is a strong indication that the production of these neurotransmitters is related to the type of foods we eat. It is suggested that when we eat too much of carbohydrates there is an automatic response from the brain for excess release of insulin to control blood sugar. Insulin clears the blood of all amino acids except tryptophan, an amino acid which is a serotonin precursor and is easily converted into serotonin in the brain.
Serotonin is found in many mushrooms and plants including some fruits and vegetables. Edible nuts of the Juglan genus, especially walnuts and hickory of Carya genus also contain serotonin. These contain a value equivalent to 25 to 400 mg/kg. Pineapple, banana, kiwifruit, plums, tomatoes and plantain contain anything between 3 to 30 mg/kg of serotonin. Smaller quantities of serotonin are found in a broad range of vegetables.
The general perception is that skipping meals reduces energy levels. But a skipped meal can also result in a drop in serotonin levels and consequently affect your emotional wellness. A steady level of serotonin produces a positive mental state. Women are considered to be more susceptible than men to the changes caused by serotonin. The frequent mood swings that women experience during periods and after menopause are considered to be caused by the change in hormone production that disturbs the level of this neurotransmitter.
The effect of food on your sense of well being is short lived. That, however, does not mean that you can go on a binge, eating foods that help serotonin production. A dietician is the right person to suggest changes in dietary habits to improve moods Excess intake of simple carbohydrates like sugars and fried foods can cause many ailments including high cholesterol, an increase in blood sugar and obesity. It the desired results are not achieved within reasonable time there maybe a case for consulting a specialist for signs of depression.References:

Call it "tire retread tape"- but put in small letters that it is for cosmetic use only.
But basically it would be a nylon reinforced duct tape (with the nylon perforated every foot for tearing off the roll) with a pvc surface texture that looked like tire tread and a special duct tape glue that cured even harder once heated.
Some people might get quite a bit of extra run time on bald tires.
But like the picture- I suspect most are just trying to get a bad tire to last until they get their next paycheck.... and they still have three days of work before that.

Am I the only one that finds most of the posted material disturbing?
Regardless of your financial situation, if your brake rotors are NON EXISTENT, tires patched with tape, etc... Please stay off the road.
If I were in that situation it would go down to carpool or public transportation.
Never would I put other people in danger, or even bring other people that i care about into a car in that shape.
You cannot have it both ways. You cannot have people work to keep themselves off welfare and then disparage those same people from skimping on anything they can to make ends meet. As I said before, try living on your own for $1200/month gross ... now understand that many people in this country are raising a FAMILY on that amount of money. People do what they need to do to get by and for one, I'd rather them grind through a set of brake rotors than go without food for a week.
People in this country are so blind to the blight of so, so, so many.

I love all the brake rotor pics. It makes me feel so much less retarded about my own rotor horror show posted below.
My 2000 Beetle sat for a year while I was going through Physical Therapy. When I finally got back behind the wheel my rotors just sort of crumbled.

Vast majority of repairs to main lines have been completed, making it possible to safely repair smaller lines
Utility expects outages to drop to between 5,000-10,000, or roughly one percent of those who lost power, by late Friday night
BALTIMORE, Sept. 2, 2011 – Baltimore Gas and Electric Company (BGE) today announced that it continues to make significant progress restoring electric service to customers supplied by secondary power lines and other equipment that could not safely be repaired until substations and main lines were repaired. The utility expects the number of outages to drop to between 5,000 - 10,000 (approximately one percent of those who lost power), by late tonight, and is on track to restore any scattered, isolated outages that remain by Saturday. BGE.com may not reflect updated outage information until late tonight due to the fact that data reconciliation often occurs at night and into the early morning hours after crews have completed their daily work. This puts the utility in the position of having restored electric service to the vast majority of its affected customers within five days of Hurricane Irene's passing.
"Several days before Hurricane Irene arrived in Central Maryland, BGE aggressively pursued and acquired out-of-state linemen and support staff and continued to build on those resources during and after the storm," said A. Christopher Burton, senior vice president of gas and electric operations and planning. "In addition to external personnel from 18 states including Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Texas, all available BGE employees and contractors have been actively engaged in this monumental restoration effort. A workforce of more than 5,500 people has been working tirelessly to get the lights back on for the approximately 750,000 BGE customers who experienced outages during this storm."
"While the lion's share of work associated with Hurricane Irene has been completed, BGE will not rest until service to each and every customer has been restored," said Jeannette M. Mills, senior vice president and chief customer officer for BGE. "We are committed to ongoing communication with all of our customers, especially those whose service has not yet been restored, to reassure them that we have not forgotten about them. BGE has been very focused on its communication to customers before, during and after the storm. We continue to keep the lines of communication open and have even expanded outreach by using our automated telephone system to update customers with more targeted restoration information and posting areas where crews would be working on its website. Customers could also stay informed on restoration progress via www.bge.com, Twitter, Facebook and Flickr."
BGE's balanced approach to service restoration ensures crews are working simultaneously in every jurisdiction where BGE has customers, addressing public safety and critical infrastructure issues across BGE's Central Maryland service area. As part of BGE's standard process during major events such as Hurricane Irene, the company is in regular communication with state and local public and elected officials and emergency operations centers, helping to ensure a coordinated effort between the jurisdictions and the utility. BGE appreciates the assistance and cooperation of these officials and organizations.
As a reminder, BGE customers who may be elderly, handicapped or dependent on electricity for medical equipment who are still without power may want to consider relocating to an alternate location until power is restored. These customers are always encouraged to have alternate arrangements in place should they experience a power outage. Customers using a generator should follow manufacturer instructions and be sure to locate generators in well-ventilated areas. Customers are reminded to report power outages by calling 1-877-778-2222. For more information about BGE storm preparation and how customers can protect their families and property, go to www.bge.com.
BGE, www.bge.com, headquartered in Baltimore, is Maryland's largest gas and electric utility, delivering power to more than 1.2 million electric customers and more than 640,000 natural gas customers in Central Maryland. The company's approximately 3,000 employees are committed to the safe and reliable delivery of gas and electricity, as well as enhanced energy management, conservation, environmental stewardship and community assistance. BGE is a subsidiary of Constellation Energy, www.constellation.com, a FORTUNE 500 company also headquartered in Baltimore, with subsidiaries that generate, sell and provide other energy-related services to customers throughout North America.

This is a new series that I am starting. It's pretty straightforward. I will go position by position and make my choices for the top five Celtics to ever play that position. Things I will take into account:
- Production (of course)
- Longevity of career spent with the Celtics
- Postseason success
I will try my best to not take the usual picks, but there are certain ones that are impossible to change. I will do ever position, as well as coach. Finally, I will write my last blog on the current starters and their chances of making any of these lists. I will refrain from using current NBA players on the lists for that purpose.
Note: I will only be using stats with the Celtics.
Celtics All-Time Shooting Guards
1.) John Havlicek
Regular Season:
Games: 1,270 - 1st all-time - Led NBA 2 times
Minutes: 46,471 - 1st all-time - Led NBA 2 Times
Field Goals: 10,513 - 1st all-time
Field Goal Percentage: 0.439
Free Throws: 5,369 - 2nd all-time
Free Throw Percentage: 0.815
Steals: 476 (not recorded until 1973-74 season)
Assists: 6,114 - 2nd all-time
Points: 26,395 - 1st all-time
Steals per Game: 1.2 (not recorded until 1973-74 season)
Assists per Game: 4.8
Points per Game: 20.8 - 3rd all-time
Points per Game: 22.0
Assists per Game: 4.8
Steals per Game: 1.13 - Led NBA 1 time (not recorded until 1973-74 season)
Games: 172 - Led NBA 5 times
Havlicek, like Cousy, is an "untouchable". There is simply no argument to be made for not putting him at number one. I was even surprised at some of his all-time rankings. He is first all-time among Celtics in games, minutes, field goals and points! As well as being in the top three in free throws, assists and points per game. His stats are simply incredible, resulting from a superb sixteen year career, all with the Celtics.
While on the C's, Havlicek compiled a 853-460 record, that is an excellent 64.97% winning percentage. He played on just two teams that had losing records. Six different times did Havlicek's team have a winning percentage north of 70%. And don't say this is because he played for Auerbach's teams. Nope, Havlicek played under four different coaches during his career (Auerbach, Bill Russell, Tom Heinsohn, Tom Sanders). Oh yeah, he has eight rings, too.
However, despite all of the positives in Havlicek's r??sum??, there is one argument to be made against him. Havlicek could be seen as a bit of a "compiler". He never lead the league in anything other than games and minutes, yet he is so high on the Celtics' all-time ranking lists. However, I don't really care. He has the production (take a look at those stats again), longevity (16 years with C's) and postseason success (8 rings) that I am looking for. He is #1.
2.) Sam Jones
Regular Season:
Games: 871 - 10th all-time - Led NBA 1 time
Minutes: 24,285 - 10th all-time
Field Goals: 6,271 - 6th all-time
Field Goal Percentage: 0.456
Free Throws: 2,869 - 9th all-time
Free Throw Percentage: 0.803
Steals: N/A
Assists: 2,209
Points: 15,411 - 7th all-time
Steals per Game: N/A
Assists per Game: 2.5
Points per Game: 17.7
Points per Game: 18.9
Assists per Game: 2.3
Steals per Game: N/A
Games: 154 - Led NBA 6 times
Sam Jones was a scorer in every sense of the word. He is 7th all-time in points for the Celtics, and only averaged 2.5 assists per game. He was no Havlicek, but hey, who is? Right? Jones played on some very, very good teams. Just look at some of his teammates; Bob Cousy, Bill Russell, Bill Sharman, Frank Ramsey, Tom Heinsohn, Don Nelson and Havlicek. Despite playing with so many great players, Jones still averaged over 20 points per game 4 times and at least 15 points per game 9 times.
Unfortunately, steals were not available during Jones' time. That does not mean it is impossible to know how good he was at defense (for those of us who couldn't watch him). According to defensive win shares, Sam Jones was an excellent defender. He had 43.7 defensive win shares, good for 8th all-time in Celtics history. Also, according to win shares per 48 minutes, Sam Jones meant more to the Celtics when it came to winning games than every player on that list I mentioned before other than Russell and Havlicek.
Should it be noted that Bill Russell played every single year that Jones did? It should be mentioned, yes, but how important is it? Well, according to win shares per 48 minutes, not that much. He was 6th all-time in that category among Celtics. Jones never led the league in scoring, but he was a great scorer. And, from what I can gather, a quality defender as well. This Hall of Famer is my #2 point guard.
3.) Bill Sharman
Regular Season:
Games: 680 - Led NBA 1 time
Minutes: 21,793
Field Goals: 4,620
Field Goal Percentage:
Free Throws: 3,047 - 8th all-time
Free Throw Percentage: 0.883 - 4th all-time - Led NBA 7 times
Steals: N/A
Assists: 2.062
Points: 12,287
Steals per Game: N/A
Assists per Game: 3.03
Points per Game: 18.1 - 10th all-time
Points per Game: 18.5
Assists per Game: 2.6
Steals per Game: N/A
Games: 78
There is a steep drop off from #2 to #3, from Jones to Sharman, but do not underestimate Sharman. His stats aren't as awe-inspiring as Havlicek's, but do not take them at face value. Sharman was a great player and a great Celtic shooting guard. The most impressive part of Sharman's game was his sharp-shooting ability. He led the NBA in free throw percentage an astounding 7 times and he is the 11th all-time in NBA history. Sharman finished in the top 10 for effective field goal percentage 5 times and true shooting percentage 5 times as well. He was the definition of a sharpshooter.
He was quite the winner as well. This 8-time All-Star and 4-time All-NBA 1st team selection won 4 titles in 10 years with the Celtics. He also finished in the top 5 for offensive win shares 4 different times. His offensive win share total is good for 5th all-time among Celtics and 10th all-time in overall win shares. Reaching the top 10 for career win shares for the Celtics is no easy feat.
4.) Frank Ramsey
Regular Season:
Games: 623 - Led NBA 2 times
Minutes: 15,330
Field Goals: 2,949
Field Goal Percentage: 0.399
Free Throws: 2,480
Free Throw Percentage: 0.804
Steals: N/A
Assists: 1,134
Points: 8,387
Steals per Game: N/A
Assists per Game: 2.7
Points per Game: 19.7
Points per Game: 13.6
Assists per Game: 1.5
Steals per Game: N/A
Games: 98
Remember when I said there was a steep decline from #2 to #3, well, there is a steeper one from three to four. Ramsey had a relatively short NBA career, just nine years long. His stats aren't all that great, either. He doesn't have that one aspect of his game that jumps out, like Bill Sharman did with his shooting ability. However, like with K.C. Jones, stats aren't everything. Ramsey won 7 rings in those short 9 years. His number 23 is hanging in the rafters at the Garden and he was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1981.
What really makes Ramsey such a special player? Well, you've heard of Red Auerbach, right? I hope so. If not, get the hell off my blog! Anyway, Auerbach invented the role of the sixth man, which has become so important in the NBA that there is an official award for it. Well, do you know who that first sixth man was? That's right, Frank Ramsey. Ramsey was the first sixth man ever. He helped Red Auerbach change the entire game.
5.) Reggie Lewis
Regular Season:
Games: 450
Minutes: 14,676
Field Goals: 3,198
Field Goal Percentage: 0.488
Free Throws: 1,479
Free Throw Percentage: 0.824
Steals: 569 - 9th all-time
Assists: 1,153
Points: 7,902
Steals per Game: 1.3
Assists per Game: 2.6
Points per Game: 17.6
Points per Game: 17.5
Assists per Game: 109
Steals per Game: 1.2
Games: 42
Ah, the sad, sad story of Reggie Lewis. The story of a young player, just reaching the peak of his career, tragically dying while playing the game he loved. During an off-season practice in 1993, Lewis suffered sudden cardiac death. At just 27 years old, Lewis had died. This was not just an out-of-the-blue occurrence, however. If you look at the stat sheet, you will see that Lewis played just one game in the '93 playoffs. This is because he suddenly collapsed on the court during the first game of the playoffs. Lewis was accused of using cocaine and that the abuse of this drug had caused his death, but doctors disagreed and found the evidence to be inconsistent with cocaine use. Lewis' death is officially contributed to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Lewis' career was just burgeoning. He was becoming one of the best all-around players in the NBA. Lewis is the only Celtic to ever have 100 rebounds, assists, steals and blocks in one season. In the 1991-92 season, Lewis had 394 rebounds, 185 assists, 125 steals and 105 blocks. In his final season, Lewis averaged 20.8 points per game, 1.0 blocks per game, 1.5 assists per game and 4.3 rebounds per game. This season was one of the best by any Celtic player.
If Lewis had not tragically died, there is no telling where he would be on this list. He could have led the Celtics teams of the ???90s to plenty of success and become one of the best Celtics ever. He was a great defender, one of very few who managed to somewhat contain Michael Jordan. He was also a good scorer, averaging over 20 points per game each of his last two seasons. It is a heartbreaking thing, what happened to Reggie Lewis.
Current Player: Ray Allen
Note: The stats used in this section are not exclusive to ones acquired with the Celtics.
Seasons with Celtics: 3
Ray Allen has played 14 seasons in the NBA and only the last 3 with the Celtics. He is 34 years old and on his last legs. There is no way that Ray Allen will ever make it onto my list because I consider the player's career only with the Celtics. However, when considering his entire career as if it was all spent on the Celtics, Allen would definitely be up there, high up there. But, that is not how it works. Pete Maravich, Dominique Wilkins and Ray Allen aren't going to make my list.
Ray Allen's three seasons with the Celtics have been good. While they seem statistically inferior to his others, he has been excellent. In fact, his defensive win shares have gone up, so he is statistically better in that sense. His total defensive win shares before coming to the Celtics was 12.8, or 0.98 per 82 games. With the Celtics, that toal has already reached 10.7, or 3.57 every 82 games. That is a very significant improvement.
Despite his short Celtics career, Ray Allen still ranks in the top ten among Celtics in a number of categories:
Three Point Field Goals: 4th all-time
Three Point field Goal Percentage: 5th all-time
Free Throw Percentage: 1st all-time
True Shooting Percentage: 4th all-time
Effective Shooting Percentage: 4th all-time
Turnover Percentage: 10th all-time
Offensive Rating: 4th all-time
Ray Allen is having a shockingly good end to his career. Here are his season highs those years and how they shape up against the last three years of the other 5 on this list:
Points per Game: 18.2 (4th)
Steals per Game: 0.9 (3rd of 3)
Assists per Game: 3.1 (3rd)
Field Goal Percentage: 0.480 (2nd)
Free Throw Percentage: 0.952 (1st)
Offensive Win Shares: 7.4 (1st)
Defensive Win Shares: 4.1 (1st)
Win Shares: 11.1 (1st)
Ray's last three years have been very strong compared to the others. Reggie Lewis beats him in each of the first four stats listed, which is somewhat misleading since the last three years of his career were his prime. However, Ray Allen's sharpshooting sticks out as he had the 2nd and best seasons in field goal and free throw percentage during these years. Win shares are also impressive, as he is first in all three listed.
Once again, if Ray played his entire career with the Celtics, he would be very, very high on this list, as he is one of the best shooters to ever play in the NBA. However, he only played three years and he will be a free agent as of July 1st (or is it June?). He may retire, he may go to a different team, or he may come back. No matter what, his Celtic career just was not long enough.

MEADSVILLE, Pa. – Revenge? Redemption?
Or was it just taking it one game at a time?
Wabash (3-0, 2-0 North Coast Athletic Conference) dominated winless Allegheny here Saturday in every phase of the football game. The 65-0 score might have been the least impressive statistic. The Little Giants clearly wanted the satisfaction of thumping the Gators after last year's 20-17 Gheny upset.
Dominating can be an overused adjective in sports but not so for this game. Wabash out-rushed the Gators 385-3. The difference in first downs was 19-2. Total offense was just as lopsided, 495-55. Allegheny (0-4, 0-3 NCAC) crossed the 50 just once against Wabash's defense, and that was due to a penalty. The homecoming hosts were 1 of 15 on third down conversions.
"This was redemption," said junior linebacker AJ Akinribade, who led Wabash with six tackles. "This was us taking back what was taken from us last year. We know what happened last year was last year and we shouldn't worry about it but those guys took what belonged to us. We wanted to come in here and get it back. We shut them down in all phases. We let them have it. We let them have it."
Wabash scored on a blocked punt, an interception, a bad snap to the quarterback, on long runs and long drives.
"We talked to our guys about redemption all week, not revenge but redemption," Coach Erik Raeburn said. "They obviously beat us last year. They out-coached us, out-played us and out-hustled us. And we didn't want that to happen again.
"I think our guys are doing a pretty good job of staying focused. I hope we obviously learned our lesson from last year."
From the outset it was clear the Little Giants would play with a purpose.
Quick scores from Mason Zurek running and an Andy Walsh to Houston Hodges 14-yard score set the pace. But then things got a little weird for the hosts. A center snap sailed past the quarterback who was still barking out signals and ended in the hands of Cody Buresh who carried it into the end zone, 21-0.
Anthony Stella scored on a three-yard run to open the second period. That was immediately followed by a Delon Pettiford 25-yard return of an interception --- his second of the season. Ian MacDougall hit a 34-yard field goal and then Zurek hammered the final first-half nail in the Gator's coffin. The sophomore burst up the middle for a 70-yard run and a Wabash 45-0 hafltime lead.
"That long run was nothing special," Zurek insisted. "I just saw the hole and no one was there. And I just started running, fast."
Indeed, the sophomore who was stepping in for the injured Tyler Holmes had a huge day. He gained 158 yards on 12 carries with the two touchdowns.
"It felt pretty good," he said of his first collegiate start. "It was nice to get more confidence under my belt with Tyler out. I was nervous and didn't get a lot of sleep last night. It was nice to come out, run a few plays and score."
Offensive and defensive starters saw just one series apiece in the second half. The first offensive series ended with another MacDougall field goal of 30 yards.
The Little Giant underclassmen then took over with little drop off. Freshman quarterback Connor Rice, making his first appearance, took off on a 50-yard scoring run with a beautiful cut back across mid field.
Brock Smith picked up a blocked punt and carried it for 26 yards. The scoring ended with at 2:42 when freshman backup placekicker Andrew Tutsie hit a 31-yard field goal, 65-0.
"The guys we started the game with played fantastic and built us a sizable lead," Raeburn said. "We gave them one series to start the second half to get used to coming out after halftime. We put those young guys in on defense and I thought they did an incredible job. The young guys up front blocked well, did a good job controlling the line of scrimmage and we continued running the ball and the clock.
"We're real proud of how hard those young guys who got in there the second half played and how they executed."
Besides Zurek's big numbers, Stella rushed 7 times for 60 yards, Matt Gibson carried nearly every down of the fourth quarter for 13 attempts and 56 yards. Walsh, getting the start in place of Michael Putko, finished with 10-13 passing and 96 yards. Putko was sitting out with a suspension for violation of team rules. Cameron Belton was 2-2 for 14 yards. Hodges caught six passes for 54 yards. Jon Laird had two catches for 20.
Nate Scola and Cody Buresh backed up Akinribade on defense with five stops apiece.
The Little Giants will stay on the road and travel to the College of Wooster next Saturday.
