Chris Bosh returns after tweaking back
Updated: November 25, 2010, 2:14 AM ETAssociated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. -- Add Chris Bosh to the Miami Heat's growing injury list.
The defending champs are trying to three-peat. The Heat Index.
Bosh went to the locker room because of back spasms in the first quarter against the Orlando Magic on Wednesday night. He returned in the second quarter.
Bosh landed awkwardly after grabbing a rebound and limped off the court holding his left hip. He was replaced by Juwan Howard.
Bosh's injury is only the latest for the Heat.
Udonis Haslem's season might be over after surgery this week to repair a torn ligament in his left foot, Mike Miller isn't expected back until after Christmas because of a broken thumb and ligament damage, Dwyane Wade has been playing through a sprained left wrist, and LeBron James has been dealing with a shin problem for a couple weeks.

Who is there peeping on the branches

Withering on the vine: six-year figures for volunteer branch show danger
Apr 9th
Hard information on the impact of turning a council-run library into a volunteer-run one is hard to come by. There's not many examples over two years old, for a start. It was therefore interesting to read this post about a comparatively long running volunteer library in Swindon backed up by some hard figures. The article – called "We will economise on the beaches" - is worth a read but, if you don't have the time for that, then the difference in usage figures for Walcot (volunteer-run since 2009) and for its parent authority is probably informative enough:
This Card Makes You Smart
Apr 8th
Today we see some pretty good news for libraries, all in all, including refurbishments and a new library building. There's darker news, if one looks for it (especially if one worries about the increasing use of volunteers) but let's stay positive today. I especially love the slogans used in Edmonton Library (Canada) such as "This Card Makes You Smart". Loans increased by 13% due to the publicity that is sometimes so sorely lacking in the UK. For what is happening over here, a new archive of resources has gone public, with the UK Web Archive listing 41 sites so far and on the lookout for more.
Wales shows the way: £1.5m in library grants massively more than English equivalent
Apr 4th
The Welsh Government has once again highlighted its difference to England with an impressive list of investments in public libraries. It has announced funding of over £1.5m for libraries. This is a quarter of the amount Arts Council England has to play with for a population of less than one-seventeenth. Furthermore, it appears to be for a year, as opposed to the two years of the ACE funding, meaning an investment nearly nine times more substantial per capita than that of England. Wales has long since held on to public library standards, meaning that its councils are taken to task if they cut libraries, unlike across the border. All is not well in the principality as campaigners in Newport will attest but this announcement will emphasise the importance of different approaches. Wales is taking a hands-on role, with supervision and substantial investment. England, under the decidely non-interventionist Ed Vaizey, is far more laissez-faire. It would be a rare library supporter who would say that the larger nation comes out better in such a comparison.
Libraries cannot be around long enough, and they do not belong to any one person
Apr 2nd
There's a very interesting article in the Guardian looking at how different non-profits and social enterprises are faring in taking over public libraries and a, frankly, beautifully powerful piece on the value of libraries from an eighteen year old in Nottingham. Meanwhile, in Lancashire, the underperforming computers in the libraries there show the need for more investment if the Digital By Default government agenda stands any chance of being fair.
"Have all other less harmful possibilities been explored?"
Apr 1st
Posted by Ian Anstice in Uncategorized
The quote above is from a letter protesting about a library closure in my home town of Newport in South Wales. It sums up to me what is happening in threatened libraries for the last few years, in that there are a whole pile of possibilities to look at before closing a building. One of these options, of course – running it with volunteers – is at once the most controversial and the most common. Others include less books, less staff, less opening hours, less everything in fact, except charges and self-service machines. Another is co-location with others services. Another is passing the running of libraries to another organisation such as a Trust or (whisper it quietly) a private company. I must make a flowchart some day …
Public Library E-Lending Review published
Mar 27th
So it has come at last. The findings of the independent review on e-lending has been published and it looks, at first blush, pretty good. The Government has also, to its credit, not backed away in horror from it. A summary of its findings are below with the (completely positive) response to it so far. For myself, I think it is as good as could have been hoped for and, in its pragmatism, offers a way forward that was perhaps not there before.
There are a series of tests the results of the Review will now go through to see if it amounts to anything which include (a) the response to it by publishers, (b) the willingness of Government to push through the legislation and to knock heads together if either side refuses to play ball (and I'm looking at you Amazon and you Big Publishers) and, finally (c) how library services can afford to pay for both an adequate supply of e-books and printed books at a time when its budget is under threat as never before. The devil is in the detail but the Review itself looks pragmatic and a solid basis to work on.
Far more sadly, and on the same day, it has been announced that the Public Lending Right unit will be absorbed by the British Library. This is despite 948 out of 1015 responses being against this move.
Guardian reports that paid staff "have learned a lot from the volunteers"
Mar 26th
The Guardian have published an article on cuts to public libraries that positively portrays volunteers as an alternative to paid staff. This is noteworthy as that newspaper as been at the forefront of covering the impact of cuts to public libraries over the last couple of years. The article, "Libraries run by volunteers as councils look to save money", looks at the cuts in the Isle of Wight where five libraries are now volunteer-run, with a local councillor saying that it was the only way to save the branches and that the "permanent staff have learned a lot from the volunteers".
Hollowing out and new libraries in the country's postcode lottery
Mar 25th
Cuts in Peterborough and Bournemouth focus around keeping buildings open but cutting other things. Both, disturbingly, identify buying less books and having less staff as an option. This places both in the "hollowing out" part of the cuts equation. As a nice change from the debacle over Friern Barnet Library, Barnet Council announce a nice new library – but, hang on, they're selling the old one and only renting the one that is replacing it.
On the more positive side of things are Lancashire and Dorset. It's good to see that the former is continuing its largely good recent track record by putting in a £2.4 million "Youth Zone" (that sounds very Millennium Dome-ish doesn't it?) in the same building as its Chorley library, although it will not directly affect it. A new development that will directly affect a library is in Dorset where a new library (co-located with an adult learning centre) will open soon.
The Librarian Unemployment Act of 2013
Mar 22nd
The headline today is from a quote in the Economist on the impact of e-lending. Another item of note is an article arguing against the findings of the Capita report. Both, for different reasons, make compelling reading (Ed.)
Developed Countries Libraries down, Developing Countries Libraries up?
Mar 20th
Some more disquiet on the decision by ACE/SCL to commission a survey to promote their new public library that resulted in research that suggested most people would not mind that they would close. Most notably, The Reading Agency has dissociated itself from the research. Having said that, it is worth pointing out that the website (Bookmark Your Library) itself is a useful initiative and something that has been needed for years. In addition, it is hardly the fault of ACE/SCL if the public are turning away from libraries. However, without knowing the methodology of the research it is hard to know for sure, although the large sample suggests it's accurate.
Two more items along this line are worthy of note. The first is a newspaper article that argues that so many libraries as we currently have are not needed any more and so it makes sense to close a few in Sheffield. The second is all the way from New Zealand and reports a big drop in usage, brought about by e-books and the internet. This suggests a reduction in usage may be worldwide, which makes sense if the technology (and access to it) is same everywhere, which in the developed world it largely is. The increase in library usage in the USA would argue against this until one notes that there is an extreme poverty gap there and also that there are not the job centres that we are used to here, with libraries taking on their job search/application role. On the other hand, in less developed countries, libraries seem as important – or possibly more so – than ever. Articles today from Romania and Pakistan suggest that it is recognised that more money is needed in libraries there.
NumbersSince 1st April 2014: 176 static libraries have been put under threat of closure/passing to volunteers. 7 mobile libraries under threat. 1 new library opened. 3 refurbishments over £50k, 10 libraries (2 static and 8 mobile) libraries closed, 9 libraries passed to volunteers. 1 entirely new volunteer-run library. 491 libraries (411 buildings and 80 mobiles) are currently reported as either likely to be closed or passed to volunteers or have been closed/left council control from 1/4/13 to 31/3/14 out of c.4265 in the UK. This figure will shortly be reviewed and is here as an indicator only. The complete list is on "Tally by Local Authority" page as are other changes to budgets such as cuts to hours, bookfund and staffing. CIpfa have calculated that 74 service points were lost in 2012/13 and 201 library service points were lost in 2011/12. For a list of new and refurbished buildings see this page,

When black and white just won't do, you can always head on over to Dubai to pick up a gold PlayStation 4 and/or Xbox One. They're only $13,700 each. But look how shiny they are! And yes, they are very, very real. The gold PlayStation 4 is above, and the gold Xbox One is after the break. [Source]

We've all heard of console bundles, but this upcoming deal from Microsoft isn't your typical bundle. Next week, from September 7-13, anyone who purchases an Xbox One will get a free game of their choice.

If reports are true, Microsoft will be offering 24-hour game trials with a few games. After the latest Xbox One system update, a redditor stumbled upon the screen below and naturally captured it for the world to see. If this screenshot is accurate with what Microsoft is planning, the company will offer a Free Play Day with Gold program, which looks to be another perk for Gold subscribers. According to Game Politics, an official press release on the matter will be forthcoming.

Coke launches socially responsible water brand Ice Dew Chun Yue in China
Coca-Cola has launched a socially responsible water brand in China called Ice Dew Chun Yue, which supports initiatives to give clean drinking water to rural schoolchildren.
Ice Dew Chun Yue: Coca-Cola launches bottled water brand in China
The new water brand has been launched with the strapline "Drink good, do good, feel good," and its sales will support the One Foundation in its efforts to build water facilities in provinces including Yunnan and Sichuan.
Pratik Thakar, Coca-Cola's Pacific Group lead for creative and content excellence, told Campaign Asia-Pacific that the brand wants to reach 20- to 35-year-old millennials, seeing an opportunity to link the brand into this group of people's desire for social activism.
He called this group of people smart, pragmatic, quality conscious and concerned about what people think of them.
Thackar said: "They like to think and discuss, they are very active in social media like weibo and WeChat about social issues, however they are not very proactive in doing things that tackle those issues."
The bottled water category is fast-growing in China, in part due to the issues of water contamination in the country.
Investigators this month said that an oil leak that contaminated the tap water of 2.4 million people came from China's largest oil company, while last year 16,000 dead pigs were found in the Huangpu River, the source of Shanghai's drinking water.
The new Ice Dew Chun Yue product translates as "pure joy" and is the first initiative of its kind carried out by Coke.

Cloning "A List" Clients to Increase Sales

"While America is experiencing its greatest transfer of wealth, the senior level 'baby boomer' financial advisors are retiring out of the market," explained Associate Dean William Byrnes. ...
"While America is experiencing its greatest transfer of wealth, the senior level 'baby boomer' financial advisors are retiring out of the market," explained Associate Dean William Byrnes. "The next five years presents substantial opportunities for this generation of financial advisors who exercise best networking and face-to-face practices."
"Many young professionals unproductively spin their wheels when it comes to growing their client base," interjected co-author Robert Bloink. "The online Thomas Jefferson graduate program is competitive because most faculty members like myself brings decades of business experience into the classroom and keep our students eye on the ball – developing their client books.
"The National Underwriter Sales Essentials Series combines all of the most practical, proven sales techniques advisors need to convert prospects into customers, win new business, and to grow sales," added Rick Kravitz Managing Director of the National Underwriter Professional Publishing Division. "The Life & Health Sales Essentials focuses on the selling skills and techniques essential to achieving success—prospecting for new business and the demands of running an agency."
William Byrnes continued, "I invite you to learn 'How to Clone Your Client's, What`s Your 'Point of Difference?', The 'Ben Franklin Method' For Winning People Over, How to Cultivate a Network of Endless Referrals, and Marketing to the Millennials. In our books, we focus on client cloning, including: asking intriguing questions, C2C qualified introductions, and client crowd sourcing."

Earlier rumors had circulated falsely saying it was Cowboys WR Dez Bryant. Terry McCormick
The website of the Miami-Dade County Corrections facility showed an arrest made on Desmond Bryant early this morning for criminal mischief.
Bryant is a defensive tackle for the Oakland Raiders, and no other details are available at this time regarding his arrest.
However, the matter apparently spilled over earlier when rumors began circulating that it was Dallas Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant who had been arrested. The Cowboys star took to Twitter to dispel that notion and proclaim his innocence.

E/R was founded in 1987 by Darrell Eachus and serves both residential and commercial clients in the greater Chattanooga area.
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — Erik Gardner of Volunteer Rid A Pest announces the recent acquisition of E/R Exterminating Company of Chattanooga. E/R was founded in 1987 by Darrell Eachus and serves both residential and commercial clients in the greater Chattanooga area.
"We have been looking for the right opportunity to make a strong move into the Chattanooga Market and with E/R Exterminating we have found it. Mr. Eachus is approaching his 70th birthday and is looking forward to retirement, so this purchase presents the perfect opportunity for both of us," said Gardner.
Volunteer will maintain its Cleveland, Tenn., offices and will continue to be based in Cleveland, Tenn. They have also purchased the buildings that house the E/R operation in Chattanooga.
"We decided to purchase the Orchard Knob office complex as a statement to our employees and our clients, that we are committed to serving Chattanooga. We are here to stay," added Gardner.
E/R's employees have been transitioned into the Volunteer Rid A Pest staff. Gardner and his staff took over the day-to-day operations of E/R, on March 1, 2013.
Allgood Pest Solutions announed it is acquiring AGF Pest and Wildlife Management.

Let God's love grow!
Jesus continues:
Jesus went on: "As for what was sown on good soil, this is he who hears the Word and comprehends it. He, indeed, bears fruit. It yields in one case a hundred times as much as was sown, in another sixty times as much, and in another thirty."
The wondrous promise of the Lord is good seed. There's nothing wrong with that seed. It is designed to change your whole being. But like any tender seedling, it has to have soil free from weeds that will prevent it from maturing and producing the desired harvest.
The good soil is your heart, your spirit, your innermost being. The Word gets planted in you. But something happens. Actually, a lot of things happen. The transmission goes out on your car and the warranty has just expired. Your roof starts to look. The price of gasoline doubles.

Accountants debunk state surplus claim
|| Print |
|High Five
|Friday, January 15, 2010
Despite claims from the GOP that Oregon has billions of dollars in surplus cash saved up, state accountants say that's not true.
But Republican legislators and tax-increase opponents are standing by a report that says the state has $4.4 billion in "ending fund balances," of which $3.3 billion "was classified as unreserved."

In response to a seasonal drop in market demand, Evergreen Line and Hanjin Shipping have adjusted capacity for the joint CEM/CUS service effective for the fourth quarter of 2012.
Through 13 weeks from October to December, the joint CEM/CUS service is planned to skip three sailings. The first skipped voyage has been implemented in week 41 and the other two are scheduled in week 44 and week 49.
The seasonal adjustment will bring a reduction of 23 percent to the service string's quarterly capacity offering. Evergreen Line and Hanjin Shipping will consider further capacity reductions depending on market developments.

Hi: 19° Lo:5°
By Liam Moakes 11/06 Updated: 11/06 16:31
THE PLAYERS and management of Alvechurch Lions celebrated a very successful campaign with their end of season awards evening at The Crown in Withybed Green.
As well as running away with the Bromsgrove & District Football League Division One title by 12 points, the Lions also won the Centenary and Bridgwater Cups before losing the LMS Shield final to Premier Division opposition.
Further acknowledgment of the team's fantastic season was the award of the Bromsgrove & District Team of the Season honour - voted for by teams in all three divisions of the league - and which saw the Lions take 23 of the 30 available votes.
The team have been promoted to the Premier Division of the league, which is a fantastic achievement in only their second full season.

Ask most reasonably bright, movie-review-reading people what qualities they value most in a mate or a motion picture, and the winning combo will likely be "smart and funny." "Beautiful" is right up there, too, though not everybody wants to volunteer as much in the first round of questioning.
"Smart People" is fairly intelligent, mildly amusing and clinically depressed. If you put it next to brilliant pictures about emotionally stymied writers/academics, like "The Squid and the Whale," "Wonder Boys" or "The Accidental Tourist," it looks a bit dull, like the dour professor who never removes his tweed jacket -- the one with the leather elbow patches.
Lawrence Wetherhold (Dennis Quaid) doesn't wear that particular jacket, probably only because his skin is already made out of the same materials. He's as glum and flinty as they come, a lit professor so indifferent to his students that he barely acknowledges their existence. Limping stiffly across the gray-brown Pittsburgh grounds of Carnegie-Mellon University, he looks like he could have stumbled over from the set of local auteur George A. Romero's living dead pictures.
Lawrence is a family man, barely. A widower, he lives with his smart and funny Young Republican daughter, Vanessa (Ellen Page, toning down her inner Juno ever so slightly), while his estranged son, James (Ashton Holmes, from "A History of Violence"), is a dorm-dweller on campus. To Lawrence, his ne'er-do-well adopted brother, Chuck (Thomas Haden Church), is nothing but a pest -- an uncouth, underemployed mooch incapable of devoting his life to "meaningful work." Chuck doesn't share the intellectual interests of his relatives (his name is Chuck -- what can he do?), and his mustache looks like two fat, furry moths that have landed on his lip facing in opposite directions. Naturally, he proves to be funnier than any of the other Wetherholds.
One fateful night, Lawrence suffers a mild concussion and is looked after by Dr. Janet Hartigan (Sarah Jessica Parker), who turns out to be a former student and still nurses kind of a crush on him, even though he's crotchety and mean and doesn't remember her.
While not seriously injured in a medical sense, Lawrence's head still requires some care, and even surgery could not extract it from the darker reaches of his own anatomy. Legally unable to drive for six months, he lets Chuck move into the spare bedroom upstairs on the condition that he provide on-call chauffeur services.
Were they not projected on a screen, you would not want to spend time with any of these people. Even Parker, cast as the Life-Affirming Option, comes across as rather drab. Quaid disappears beneath his beard and into his role, yet because Lawrence is such a remote character, it's hard to care much. Page's role is pretty thin and monotonous, which leaves Church's droll Chuck to provide subtle relief from the gloom.

Military rule in Thailand is likely to last longer than expected and has been more repressive than after the country's last coup in 2006, a senior US official says.
The official told a congressional hearing Washington was still looking at whether the big regional Cobra Gold military exercise held annually in Thailand could go ahead there next year given the military takeover in May.
''Initially, we held out hope that - as happened with the 2006 coup - the military would move relatively quickly to transfer power to a civilian government and move towards free and fair elections,'' said Scot Marciel, the US principal deputy assistant secretary of state for East Asia.
''However, recent events have shown that the current military coup is both more repressive and likely to last longer than the last one,'' he added.
Marciel said in testimony to the Asia-Pacific subcommittee of the House Foreign Affairs Committee that the coup had put the United States in a difficult position, given that Thailand is a key US ally in Asia.
''The challenge facing the United States is to make clear our support for a rapid return to democracy and fundamental freedoms, while also working to ensure we are able to maintain and strengthen this important friendship and our security alliance over the long term,'' he said.
Marciel said Washington hoped that strong international criticism of the military takeover would lead to an easing of repression and an early return to democracy. He said the United States would continue to urge for the martial law to be lifted and elections to be held sooner than a vague 15-month timeline laid out by the military government.
However, he added: ''To be honest, it's very hard to predict how long they are going to stay in power.''
Until there is a return to elected government, ''we will not be able to do business as usual,'' Marciel said.
As required by US law, Washington has frozen US$4.7 million (NZ$5.3m) of security-related assistance since the coup and canceled high-level engagements, some military exercises and training programs for the military and police.
Marciel said Washington had yet to make a decision on the Cobra Gold exercises planned for early next year in Thailand, which he called ''hugely important ... not only for Thailand and the United States, but for the region.''
''It's something we're looking at. We have a little bit of time to work with.''
Steve Chabot, chairman of the subcommittee at which Marciel spoke, suggested that Cobra Gold could be moved to another country, such as Australia, and added: ''It could clearly send the wrong message if we allowed (Thailand) to participate.''
Washington has also yet to decide whether Thailand would receive a presidential waiver on sanctions - including withdrawal of US support at the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank - that could be imposed for its failure to deal with human trafficking, Marciel said.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Beyonce seizes the moment, Nicki shakes it (a lot) and other memorable scenes from the VMAs
They don't call her Queen Bey for nothing.
Beyonce not only stole the show at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night with many of the world's top female pop stars in attendance hustling for our attention, she used the moment to erase the cynical cloud around her family status with an adorable appearance by daughter Blue Ivy and doting husband Jay Z to finish off the night.
"MTV, welcome to my world," Beyonce said near the top of her performance, and for the next 15 minutes it was a complete takeover.
The performance was mesmerizing television, from the seemingly endless medley of hits to the extended look at the adorable Blue Ivy, who wore a gold bow in her hair and clapped her hands and said, "Yea, Mommy," after Jay Z carried her onstage while presenting her mother with MTV's Michael Jackson Video Vanguard award.
Here's a close up on the night's most interesting moments. You know, the things we'll be talking about Monday morning, for better or for worse:
— Nicki All Night: Much of the focus prior to Beyonce's arrival was on Nicki Minaj — and her booty. She helped open the show with a snake-themed performance of "Anaconda" that included a lot of attention on Minaj's most jiggly asset. Then after what appeared to be an honest wardrobe malfunction during her subsequent team up with Ariana Grande and Jessie J — "We ran out of time getting the dress zipped up," she said afterward — things got really booty-centric when she joined Usher on stage for "She Came to Give It to You." Usher dropped to his knee while playing the bass after Minaj appeared on stage, then banged his head against her rear end in a new version of the bump. He leapt to his feet and gave her a smack before she walked away.
— The Front Row: You've got to feel bad for Riff Raff. The Houston rapper arrived on the red carpet in a Lamborghini with Katy Perry in the passenger seat. But it was clear she was way more into Sam Smith, spending the night with the pop star's arm draped over his shoulder. Other unexpected pairs who spent the night seated together along the front row included Taylor Swift and Lorde, who celebrated their friendship by dancing the night away together. Lorde even introduced Swift's performance of "Shake It Off": "On the surface, this next performer and I are nothing alike. She's tall, blonde and doesn't wear quite this much black. But we both base our art on the things that delight, terrify and confound us, and for that I'm grateful she exists."
— Sam Slays: Perry wasn't the only attendee fixated on Smith. The VMAs have a reputation for over-the-top moments, and there were plenty. But the quiet, commanding performance of "Stay With Me" by the British singer drew the night's first — and most sincere — standing ovation.
— Serious Moments: The VMAs aren't known for political statements, but some of Sunday's most memorable moments came with messages. Common asked for a moment of silence to remember 18-year-old Michael Brown, killed by a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri: "The people in Ferguson and St. Louis and communities across the country have used their voices to call for justice and change to let everyone know that each and every one of our lives matters." The camera showed members of the crowd with heads bowed, including Snoop Dogg, who flashed a peace sign. Later, Miley Cyrus engineered her own powerful statement when she sent a homeless youth named Jesse to the stage to accept her video of the year award. He gave an impassioned speech asking viewers to help as Cyrus tearfully looked on. MTV also paid tribute to late actor-comedian Robin Williams with a short photo montage.
— We Are Family: The tenor of the night changed when Beyonce took the stage and things got worshipful by the end of her set as she led a thousands-strong sing-along on "XO" that included most everyone giddily dancing. And she didn't waste the moment, using it to bat away persistent rumours that her marriage is headed for divorce. "I am filled with so much gratitude," Beyonce said as the crowd chanted her name. She turned to her family and said, "I just thank God for this moment. I love you all so much. Blue, I love you. My beloved, I love you."

Rienzo went 4-5 with a 5.87 ERA in 14 games, including 11 starts, in his previous stint with the team this season (April 19-July 12).
