Hi friends [:)]!!
I need ,
I want to call Page.Validate() using javascript can anybody help me ??'
Sep 22, 2006 02:56 PM|LINK
Well, Page.Validate() is a server side function and requires a postback. Its job is to run server side validation. My guess is that you want to run client-side validation.
Call Page_ClientValidate(). It returns true if the page was valid. If you are using ASP.NET 2.0, pass the validation group name as a parameter (Page_ClientValidate("") will handle when there is no group name.)
Sep 25, 2006 05:50 AM|LINK
Hey Peter Thank you for your kind help !!!
Jul 11, 2007 12:24 AM|LINK
Can I call page_ClientValidation('group1') at client side?

inJul 12, 2007 05:38 PM|LINK
If you correct the type, "Page", not "page", Page_ClientValidation("group") will work for you. It returns true when the group is valid and false when not.

hello, this is great , but I try to do something like that
function myFunction(grop)
if (Page_ClientValidation(grop))

Carol Delaney
Published: Friday, January 4, 2013 at 6:02 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 4, 2013 at 6:02 p.m.
Carol Delaney's breast cancer diagnosis, a week before Thanksgiving 12 years ago, devastated her family but did nothing to dim her positive attitude or engaging manner.
"She pulled us all through it," said her daughter, Shannen Dettmann of San Francisco. "She just kept moving forward."
Delaney's cancer spread to her bones, and she died in her sleep at her Occidental home on Dec. 20, two days after her 70th birthday.
Told that her hair would probably fall out as a result of chemotherapy, Delaney shrugged off the prospect, saying her hair would probably grow back curly, the style she had always wanted.
And so it did, Dettmann said.
In her illness Delaney remained just as she had been in health, a caring, good-natured person who expressed more interest in others than in her own condition.
"She had this aura about her," Dettmann said. "People were drawn to her."
Marylu Downing, an Occidental area artist, said her longtime friend and former neighbor was "a lovely person ... with a sense of humor and a great love for cooking and for her friends and family."
Delaney worked as a part-time instructor in Santa Rosa Junior College's work experience program and helped Downing get a job in the same department.
"She inspired me to look for the daily good in life," Downing said, recalling her friend's prowess as a shopper who found bargain clothing and loaned her wardrobe to friends.
"She was the go-to fashionista," Downing said, recalling that just a few months ago the two went for a long walk at the coast.
"I miss her a lot already," Downing said.
Born in San Francisco in 1942, Delaney grew up in Redwood City, graduating from Sequoia High School in 1960. At Foothill Junior College she was vice president of her sophomore class and a pompom girl, graduating in 1962.
Delaney earned a degree in education at University of Colorado in Boulder and taught at an elementary school in the Watts area of Los Angeles for two years, then moved to Hillsborough Elementary School in San Mateo County.
In the summer of 1967, Delaney met her future husband, Jay, when both were with friends at Stinson Beach in Marin County. Later, at a bar in Sausalito, Jay got Carol's phone number and they were married the following year, also in Sausalito.
A few years later, the couple traveled for a year through Europe and North Africa, mostly camping in a Volkswagen van.
Returning to California, they settled first in Santa Rosa and began building a house in Occidental, where they raised two daughters and Delaney served on the PTA at the old Harmony School.
Delaney, who taught her daughters to cook, developed one prized recipe from a pasta dish she enjoyed at a restaurant. It won first prize in a local competition and the recipe for penne pasta with sausage and goat cheese became a family favorite.
Jay Delaney continues to operate the couple's business, Wine Country Experience, a bike, van and hiking tour company in Sonoma County.
In addition to her daughter and husband, Delaney is survived by her other daughter, Tara Jasper of Forestville, and three grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Feb. 2 at the Occidental Center for the Arts, which was formerly her children's school.
Memorial donations may be made to the Occidental Center for the Arts or Santa Rosa Junior College.

Is technology killing you?
by: Dewayne Castillo
Technology isn't killing you, but your habits using it just might. I'm not talking about the obvious texting while driving. By the way, NEVER TEXT WHILE DRIVING! I am referring to my previous post "Use your computer to shed pounds". While that was more about the benefits of using a standing desk, this infographic by Medical Billing and Coding shows how the standing desk might not be such a crazy thing after all.

Pat's Fantasy Hotlist 3.0
So things are settling down a bit...
I was extremely fond of the previous template and I'm kind of sad to see it go. But I like this one (some of you may recall that I selected this Notebook template for my Survivor/Koh-Lanta blog last year), and it looks as though this could be the new look for Pat's Fantasy Hotlist. We'll have to wait and see...
To my detractors, sadly the new look won't change anything. So yes, you can expect the same kind of crappy content you have come to hate with a passion, day in and day out.
But now comes what I dread the most: Updating the blogroll and all the other features of the Hotlist. It's been a few years since the last update and I need your help.
What SFF blogs of interest do you feel should be added to my own blogroll? What's missing from the "Speculative Fiction Authors," "Publishers," "SFF Resources," and "Message Boards" sections? I have to admit that I've been out of touch with these things for too long.
What else would you like to see added to the Hotlist?

I like this template. It's very easy on the eyes.
I like the layout of the new site, but the colors make reading the text extremely hard--light beige background with a brown-ish text is really bad contrast.

Three great blogs I think anyone should add to their blogrolls. - 2:31 PM
It is a nice design. On my screen some of the sidebar titles aren't showing up cleanly though with the bottom quarter of the words being cutoff. Seems to be happening to the sidebar titles that break into 2 lines.
Some of my daily blog visits include:

- Niall Alexander said...
Oh my lord I made the Hotlist! Well thanks, Pat.
Quite like the new look... though I'm having problems with the sidebar as well. Been thinking of a change to something similar myself of late, but actually pushing the button scares me half to death; I haven't changed templates in the entire life of TSS. - 5:04 PM
- Abalieno said...
I don't update so frequently but I also do have an in-topic blog
if you want to add. - 5:15 PM
- alabrava said...
for starters, Bakker's site has been gone for over a year, might want to go thru the rest of the author links to make sure, maybe add some new ones like NK Jemisin who has a great site and updates her blog fairly regularly
I would like to see somewhere where you can access all the "best of the year" lists that you do. It would be nice to see them all accessible on one page of links or something.
id like to see the pattern behind the text removed, makes it really annoying to read. rest... ok i guess :)
Please change the pattern behind the text, my eyes would adore the blog again.
Stormy - 7:56 PM
- alabrava said...
I agree I like the background, but the text needs to stand out a little more, it's a bit hard to read.
- Patrick said...
Funny some of you should mention that the text doesn't stand out enough. On my laptop, it actually stands out better than it did with the previous template... :/
Okay, so I also updated the authors' section. Probably missed some, just as I likely missed some in the blogroll. But I'm getting there! ;-) - 9:17 PM
- Nathaniel Katz said...
There's Abigail Nussbaum (SH's review editor)'s fantastic blog, which is well worth adding: http://wrongquestions.blogspot.com/
Also Dazed Rambling: http://dazedrambling.blogspot.com/
Then, on a more selfish note, there's always my own to consider... evilhat.blogspot.com - 9:23 PM
- David Wagner said...
Change everything about the blog... no, wait... keep it all exactly as it is!
Glad i could help!
You should consider adding Greg Hamerton to your author list. Love his Lifesong series. His site is a great read as well... - 10:39 PM
Looks good Pat!
Check out Rising Shadow which has a pretty decent database of upcoming books: http://en.risingshadow.net/ - 6:11 AM
- Eric Leblanc said...
I find also the design hard on the text.
For example, "Fantasy and science fiction and speculative" on top of the page is completely invisible for me. - 9:34 AM
- NewGuyDave said...
I like this template except for the watermarks, which obscure some of the text, especially what Eric mentioned. The commenters names are fine because they're in bold, but the first line of each comment seems to be hiding within the darker brown of the paper.
www.ActionAdventureFantasy.com - 3:03 PM
As for your detractors - who cares! F$?&%-em! Love your work Pat. Keep it up!
- Bryce L. said...
Can't believe I forgot this one: http://bastardbooks.blogspot.com/
Also, I'm digging the new look and the conformity among the blogs. - 4:15 PM
- Shahid said...
Hey Pat,
The link you've got for the Malazan Empire forums is an old one so people might be missing out on all the crazy discussions. (It should just be http://forum.malazanempire.com/ now)
Oh and as a random aside I'd recommend reading The Rook by Dan O'Malley. I was taught by his mother at school so I might be a tad biased but for me it was reminiscent of Neverwhere with a little Chronicles of Amber and definitely worth a read. - 6:14 PM
- alabrava said...
I should say that overall Pat it actually looks fantastic, however, since you asked for things to be fixed, just giving my opinion. :)
- Dovile said...
I like this layout too, only like some people already mentioned, the 'stains' behind the text make it more difficult to read the text.
I'd like it if you added an email subscription feature. I'd like to get your posts delivered to my emailbox. - 12:28 PM
- maine character said...
I'll take this blog any way I can, but I gotta give another vote against the pattern behind the text. Even when zoomed in, to make the text bold, it's too distracting.
hi there! i know this is much delayed, but i just realized that i can't search your blog for a term/author's name/title/etc... anymore.
or perhaps my browser just doesn't display that feature?
anyway, i used to often search your blog, and would like to continue doing so.
thanks! - 3:51 PM

I did a little something different here this week because:
A. I was busy elsewhere.
B. I hadn't read this old writing in about 10 years.
C. When I see it now I see it with new eyes: the pictures, the words, the recollections, the purity, the pain, the truth, the teaching, the wisdom that was waiting on the page all along.
D. I don't want you to worry about yourself or your children. I don't want you to worry that they won't know a grandparent or have picture perfect happiness or a certain kind of memory. I don't want you to worry that your skills are lacking, or that your children will end up hollow or ruined because of something said or done, or because of something that wasn't said or done.
E. Tell me, please tell me that you see what hangs so clearly from this tree, what hangs from every tree, the only living thing that lasts, what refreshes and nourishes us forever, what we carry from day to day and season to season in an undiminished supply, that we need only reach up with our own hand to take and taste as our own.
F. Love.
All of the above

Hello Karen
I have been pretty overwhelmed by your writings...but I must say it is in a very good way. The story, the choice of words, the feelings, the emotions, the hurt and the happiness are all there. I am a mother of one son. One of my biggest struggles is wanting him to have a happy childhood. There is only so much I can do, but at least I know he is happy with me as a Mom and maybe that will be his best memory. Your site and writings are beautifully written and say so much. You are very talented and I appreciate you sharing with all of us. - January 25, 2008 at 8:56 AM

Some of you already have seen video, but if not it's a fun exercise.
Context is a public place with other citizens, with a person harassing a government employee
Situation leads to both people swearing/insulting each other, with the person eventually throwing a punch at the public worker. Public worker gives her one final warning, walks up and fights back. Neither person has serious injuries and both continue to talk to each other after being seperated
Before you watch the video, write down your answers to the following
1) Who is at fault
2) Who should be charged
3) What should be the punishment
Now watch the video
Video (Youtube link)
My initial thoughts below
I'll give some more verbose thoughts on the video later. Maybe post some more later this weekend.

Patrick Hruby has an article up on The Postgame that pretty much talks about how the Marlins are spending and likely to get rich off the taxpayers' dime without any reciprocation. If I were a Florida taxpayer, I'd be pretty pissed off about this.
So the Marlins are spending money that isn't actually theirs
One Response to "So the Marlins are spending money that isn't actually theirs"
Wow. I hate it when sports teams use taxpayer money, but this is ridiculous.

I believe social media and Twitter have transformed communication in the same way television has transformed entertainment. The efficiency and speed at which we can exchange ideas and share content compared to ten years ago is extraordinary.
Please watch our project intro video here:
Gaining insights as we go - some early things that stand out are:
Ryan Bevan, our Get IT Together Project Co-ordinator is training 35 young volunteers to help deliver digital inclusion in RCT. Working with volunteers presents a variety of challenges, and the additional element of introducing younger volunteers introduces another range of issues including recruitment, training and management. Ryan has built in additional training and support for these young volunteers and encourages shadowing and mentoring to enable them to become confident enough to deliver sessions.
At Action in rural Sussex (AirS) we are fortunate enough to have developed a great partnership with the University of Brighton, as we embark on a new and innovative project, supported by the Nominet Trust.
A record number of schools have registered for Make IT Happy, Make IT Safe 2013, the award winning competition run by e-skills UK on behalf of PICTFOR, the Parliamentary ICT Forum. The competition is generously sponsored by the Nominet Trust and the IET.
Over 600 schools registered and downloaded materials to deliver lessons on e-safety to pupils aged 9 - 11. The competition encourages them to create and submit info-graphics that pass on their learning to others - competition entries are coming in from all around the UK.

Marula Oil Our Community Fair Trade marula oil comes from the Eudafano Women's Co-operative in Namibia. Marula fruits are hand-selected, the nuts are extracted and dried in the sun. The kernels are cold-pressed to release the oil. By setting up their own factory, the 5,000 women members have gained entrepreneurial skills and, they tell us, a newfound self-esteem. To find out more, visit our Community Fair Trade section.
Shea Butter Our Community Fair Trade shea butter comes from Ghana. Local women hand-harvest shea nuts, dry them in the sun and crack them to extract the kernels. These are roasted and ground into a paste to make the butter. Our trade with the Tungteiya Women's Shea Butter Association has helped to fund three medical centres and 10 nursery schools.

How Companies Communicate and Engage on Sustainability
As sustainability becomes an increasingly strategic priority, business leaders have been introducing new practices to communicate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives. For many companies, sustainability reporting represents an important avenue for engaging with investors, customers, and employees on these matters. Despite its growth, reporting on social and environmental issues remains a relatively new practice and poses a number of questions and challenges to business leaders in charge of overseeing sustainability.
This KnowlEdge Series features the co-authors of Sustainability Matters 2013: How Companies Communicate and Engage on Sustainability, a report highlighting critical matters related to the disclosure of sustainability information.
Audience: Corporate directors and senior managers in charge of sustainability issues—including chief sustainability officers, general counsel, corporate secretaries, and investor relations officers.
PART ONE: Sustainability Metrics and Communication Strategies… view details
22 April, 2013 12:00 PM EST [12:00] | (1 hr)
What sustainability practices should be included in a report and how should they be measured? Companies can track and measure hundreds of social and environmental practices, but often struggle with choosing what is material to their business and what meets stakeholder expectations. How does the scope of a company's sustainability agenda shift depending on its industry and value-chain position? What differences exist in how companies define and communicate sustainability? Part I of this series explores how companies choose to focus their sustainability communication efforts, and sheds light on the issue of materiality by identifying those practices which are most frequently included in sustainability reports.

PART TWO: Sustainability Standards and Stakeholder Engagement… view details
25 April, 2013 01:00 PM EST [13:00] | (1 hr)
What sustainability standards (e.g. GRI, UN Global Compact, ISO 26000) should companies consider adopting? How do these standards differ and what value do they offer? How do companies choose to engage on sustainability issues with their stakeholders? Part II of this series looks at examples of different stakeholder engagement approaches and variations in level and scope of engagement, and discusses the need to more clearly explore and develop linkages between existing, and sometimes competing, sustainability standards.

Mystery Graph #8

Just a wild guess...Robinson Cano's HR to fly ball ratio?
ReplyDelete Mr. Koestler, I really enjoy your articles, but these graphs don't seem to be eliciting much interest from myself and my fellow Yankee fans.
I'd be more interested in your opinion and observations on whether we should go with Montero full time at catcher. I'm afraid that the Yankees are going to screw up Montero's development at the MLB level with the acquisition of Russell Martin.
If they go north with Montero and only give him, say, 250 ABs, it could mess up his timing, derail his short-term development, and lessen his trade value (although I hope they don't trade him).
I'm of the opinion that we should give Montero the full-time catching job if he hits well in spring training and plays at least decent behind the plate. It's time (or past time) for the Yankees to take a chance on a high-ceiling kid again. The last kid we took a chance on was Jeter, for god's sake. Christ, that was a decade and a half ago. And we only took the chance then, I seem to recall, because of an injury to the guy who was supposed to be the starting shortstop.
Let's give Montero a shot at the catcher's position full time and find out what we have in him. If he hits great, but doesn't field well, try him in a corner outfield spot in 2012 or make him the DH in 2012. (I don't expect Posada will be back after this year.) Of course, we could also trade him to a team that needs a young power hitter if he produces at the level we believe he can.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this subject in a full length article, along with everyone else's thoughts. I realize starting Montero would be a gamble, but I think that's the kind of upside gamble we need to take in 2011 to keep pace with Boston and the other teams that greatly improved themselves this offseason (unlike the Yankees).
I hope the Yankees only acquired Martin as a safety valve in case Montero fails completely at the MLB level . . . otherwise I'm afraid the Martin acquisition is only going to forestall Montero's development.

Members of the American Legion and the VFW led the parade, followed by politicians, marching bands, scouts and throngs of enthusiastic citizens, who lined the parade route. The parade began with a memorial service at Cleveland Avenue Cemetery, including Taps and a gun salute, and ended in front of Town Hall with state representative Bill Taylor giving the final salute to those who made the supreme sacrifice. Assistant principal trades for associate's slot by GLEN MILLER News-Times reporter Dick Roth is used to change in education. He's gone from being a teacher to administrator and moved from the Elyria lo Keystone schools before coming to Amhersl seven years ago. Now he is changing again. Beginning Aug. 1, he will become ihc associate principal al Marion L. Steele High School rather ihan assistant principal. For a lot of people, the change appears to be a difference in title. It'l not. Rolh, 55, also is giving up his post as alhlclic director and will have more of a hand in running ihe day-to-day operations of the high schtx>l. As the assistant principal, he is mainly responsible for making sure alhlclic programs run smoothly, some student discipline and the evaluation of about 20 of the school's ffi icachcrs. Next year, he'll still do teacher evaluations bul have greater student disciplinary responsibilities. He also will work closely wilh student council and the MLS National Honor Society. The alhlclic director's job will be taken over by Jeffrey Ricscn, foot- Dlck Roth hall coach. alter longtime associate principal Principal Bob Boynton offered Lois Van Guntcn announced her the post lo Roth several weeks ago retirement "I'm pleased he (Boynton) thought enough of my abilities lo ask me to make ihc change," Roth said. "I've worked in a lot of schools, bul this is a great school. I'm please to serve in anyway I can." Still, he didn'i make the decision overnight. The more he thought about il, the more attractive ihe job looked to him. Besides, as he looked back at tus 28 years in education, he recalls having changed jobs every five or six years. "It's always done me good. I just wanted to be more involved with the day-to-day operations of the school" Roth said. "Besides, being athletic director is a lot bigger job than most people think." Aboul 475 athletic events — loot ball, basketball and baseball games, wrestling, track meets, tennis and more — are jammed into a 180-day schedule each year. "It just doesn't happen. It lakes planning," Roth said. "Al die same lime, il kind of separates you from ihe rest of die school operations and other things dial are going on. You get very immersed in it." Hum's not lo say he won't miss his current job. Aboul $2 million in improvements have been made to high school athletic facilities under his guidance, although he refuses to lake all the credit. Add to that the winning of ihc 1995-96 Southwestern Conference All-Sports Championship "Ihey just happened under my watch because there arc good athletes and coaches here," Rolh said. Looking back over his career. Roth said never SOW himself as an administrator when he began teaching nearly 30 years ago. As years rolled by, his goals and priorities changed, although he has never warned to separate himself from students. "They are why I stay in education. I'm fortunate to have advanced my career, but they aa- what il is all about," he added. Roth has already started meeting with Van Guillen and asking her questions about her job. He's not unfamiliar wilh it. having held a similar post at Keystone High School years ago. Bul like him, times have changed. Educational la'iuls have improved along with technology. lie plans to spend his summer catching up on the changes before moving into his new office Aug. I. Eric Nord to relinquish Nordson chairmanship Eric T. Nord, co-lounder of Nordson Corporation and chairman of the board, will be retiring in October und will be replaced by William Madar, Nordson's chief executive officer. Madar, 57, is retiring from die chief executive officer's position after 12 successful years; during his tenure, the company has seen il sales increase four times and profits go up seven limes — while doubling the number of employees. Madar's achievements also include being named International Executive of the Year in 1990 by the Cleveland World Trade Organization, and the Purdue University Distinguished Engineering Alumnus Award in 1992. Edward P. Campbell, president and chief operating officer, will be taking over Madar's position in October, having been groomed for ihc job lor ihe past iwo years. He joined Nordson in 1988 as vice president and was promoted in 1994. 'The election of Ed Campbell lo chief executive officer represents ihc final phase of a succession strategy put inio place several years ago to ensure (he smooth transition of Nordson's leadership into die future, " Madar said. He cilcs Campbell's "vision, energy and experience" as some of the qualifications to help Nordson reach 'its outstanding growth potential. In addition lo his duties al Nordson, Campbell, 47, is also a board member of ihe Nordson Corporation Foundation, president of the Board of Trustees of the Center for Leadership in Amherst, and chairman of the Investment Committee of the Cleveland Area United Way. Campbell said he feels ihe fundamental direction of the company is sound and that his primary function will be 10 "continue lo siccr ihc ship."

The Greater Mount Airy Chamber of Commerce is seeking nominations for the 2012 Citizen of the Year, and community input is needed.
The deadline for submitting nominations is Jan. 16, and nominations received will be evaluated by a committee chosen by the chamber, who will announce the Citizen of the Year during the 52nd Annual Meeting of the Chamber, set for Jan. 24 at Cross Creek Country Club.
According to Membership and Communications Director Tanya Taylor, nominees should be residents intent on making a difference in the community.
"Nominees should have clearly demonstrated leadership and hard work, that have made Surry County a better place in which to live and work," she said. "Careers of the nominees should be in the areas of business, industry and public service."
Executives or employees of non-profit organizations are not eligible, Taylor added. In addition, elected officials, candidates for elected office and individuals who have previously held elected office are not eligible.
Specific criteria for nominees include:
• Candidate is a visionary — able to assess external and internal forces likely to significantly influence Surry County's future and identify actions needed to manage these forces to maximum benefit.

- Moving from ambition to meaning
- (Cake and Comfort)
Often when starting on the entrepreneurial journey, visions of huge success loom large. It can be heady to think of the possibilities of owning your own business, when there are stories all around of folks who went from nothing to multiple millions with one idea. The vision of huge success is one thing, but creating it is entirely another.
As anyone who has ventured on this path will tell you, it is not for the faint of heart. Customers, suppliers and contracts come and go, trends change, recessions and market crashes re-arrange the landscape for financing...often as the famous movie line said; you better "fasten your seat belts, for it's going to be a bumpy ride". That's entrepreneurship...and it can be a Shark Tank. Yet we keep going, pressing on, working to build the big dream, to make that vision a reality.
But sometimes as I've gone along this ride, moments happen that make meaning more important than ambition. That happened again this week when our ComfortCake HUGS Foundation hosted 20 students from Urban Prep Academy at our offices as part of their Discovering Our City Initiative. This initiative engages businesses and organizations to introduce students to parts of Chicago and career opportunities that they may not have ever been exposed to. I'm proud that this is the second year we've hosted them.
To me, there is nothing more meaningful than to see lights of interest come on in the eyes of positive, young people. To get their curiosity flowing about possibilities, to add to their menu of options, to field their excellent questions while sharing stories of what it takes to complete an education, start a business, and give back to others...it was priceless. We all know that the images portrayed of our youth is much more negative than positive. Yet, there is positivity all around us, and we can all do something with our youth to let them know we care about them and about their future, because it is our collective future.
I think it is important to let young folks see us doing what we do as entrepreneurs, whether times are good or times are hard. Let them see that as the old African proverb says, "To stumble is not to fall, but to move forward faster". I made those young men promise me that as long as they could look up they would get up as they go through this life. And being with them, sharing with them gave such meaning to my soul. This is what matters more than ambition to me. I could have had them stay all day because of the hope they engendered in me.
What can we all do? As our city copes with such astonishing violence and a mindset of hopelessness, we can reach out to our youth. It doesn't always take a program or a foundation. Sometimes it just takes a moment. When you see youth engaging in something positive, stop and let them know it's appreciated. When you see something needing correction, don't be afraid to correct with a loving touch or tone. For example, this week my cable was out, and the young technician who came to fix it was on time, which was terrific. But he came to the door with the straw from his soft drink hanging from his mouth, and started trying to go through his analysis with it hanging there! Now, I wasn't his momma, but I just had to stop and let him know that while I was glad he was on time, that straw was not building my confidence that he knew his stuff. I said it directly but with a smile...and he promptly got the point, trashed the straw and ended up doing a great job. It felt wonderful to then give him high marks when a survey call came later. Who knows, perhaps he will think about the impression he leaves when on future service calls, and the good survey marks will encourage him to succeed.
So, each one can reach one. In a store, on the street, look young folks in the eye. Say Hello...Smile... Engage...say "you're doing a great job!" We used to do that in our communities all the time to build each other up. You know, but for the grace of God go all of us...your son or daughter could be the one needing encouragement from a stranger one day. If we find ways to pay it forward - both small and large - then moving from ambition to meaning will become easier, and life can become sweeter for us all.
- Putting together the pieces for a Rose comeback
- (Bulldozedcity: Chicago Sports)
There is no timetable in place for Derrick Rose's much anticipated return and one of the questions that seems most prevalent on Bulls fan's minds, is when Rose does return, who will be his "sidekick"? One of Bulls Coach Tom Thibedeau's most popular quotables is, "We have more than enough to win," but how true are those words now?
With a team that is in dire need of a spark, it seems reasonable that even when Derrick Rose does return, the Bulls will still be one "piece" away. Indeed, the Bulls have reached a tipping point, and the time has come for an honest look at the Bulls chances of being a serious title contender in the short-term. It simply does not seem likely that a team made up of mostly serviceable role players can compete with the league's brass come playoff time.
However, if, and when Derrick Rose does return, I will not make the mistake of doubting him. The Bulls very well may find themselves competing in the conference finals two months from now, if Rose, who has spent the last ten months rehabbing a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his left knee, can return at a high level. But allow me to remind you, in the Eastern Conference, the road to the finals goes through South Beach.
Enter the Bulls front office. Has the tandem of Gar-Pax done enough to prevent Rose from virtually going 1-on-3 against the Miami Heat, if the two teams meet for a chance to go to the NBA finals? For now, lets say the answer is no. Seeing as that without Rose, the closest thing the Bulls have to a player that can create their own shot is Nate Robinson. Enough said. And yes, Joakim Noah and Luol Deng are both deserving All-Stars, but Noah is not a real scoring threat and Deng cannot dribble the basketball well enough to create for himself. Simply.
Let us take a brief look back at the summer of 2010. Yes, the summer Lebron James announced he was taking his talents to South Beach, and along with him, most of the leagues chances at an NBA Championship for the next 3-5 years. It was at this moment where things became clearer. With Chris Bosh, Dwayne Wade, and Lebron James all off the board to Miami, the Bulls countered those moves by signing Carlos Boozer to the tune of $80 million (panic much?) and filled the rest of the roster with specialist, in hopes to compete with the newly formed super team in Miami. It didn't work. The Bulls were beaten in the conference finals in five games by, guess who? The Miami Heat. What would the Bulls do for an encore? The next off-season they would add aging shooting guard, Rip Hamilton, with hopes that he would be the missing piece to relieve Rose of some of his super-hero like responsibilities. In the end, it was injuries that robbed Gar-Pax of a chance to see if their philosophy of Rose and "friends" versus Lebron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh and the Miami Heat, would triumph.
This brings us to the current state of the Chicago Bulls. Finances have been exhausted. Not to mention that in a season where their championship chances are slim, the Bulls are primed to pay a luxury tax for the first time in team history this season. It's obvious now. The Bulls front office has their sights on the 2014 NBA season. Why? Because right now, the Bulls are handcuffed by the hard cap and 2014 is the next chance they have to get their heads above water, financially. 2014 is when Luol Deng's contract comes off the books, Nikola Mirotic could possibly be signed, and Carlos Boozer becomes a serious amnesty candidate.
As a result, freeing up enough cap space to possibly add a big name free agent to pair with Rose. But Gar-Pax already struck out once on free agency glory, why try it again? Because, it is likely the only way the Bulls will be able to form a team strong enough to get past the greater teams of the league. In 2014, will a core of Derrick Rose, Joakim Noah, Nikola Mirotic (if he breaks free of his European contract), Taj Gibson and Jimmy Butler be enough to convince the likes of Kobe Bryant, Lebron James, Dwayne Wade, Carmelo Anthony, and Rudy Gay, all who will be free agents in 2014, that a championship is in reach in Chicago?
Will Kevin Love force a trade if the Timberwolves cannot develop to become a consistent winning organization? Both are questions the Bulls front office will have to ask themselves. Because, one thing's for sure, the fate of the Bulls not only rests on the shoulders of Derrick Rose. Gar/Pax will have to help him shoulder the load and use creative and proactive tactics on the quest for a No. 2 option for Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls.

- Valentine's Day meal at home
- (Chef Julius)
Valentine's Day is a day designed to show yourself or the person you are involved with some level of appreciation. Yes it does get a bit "overdone" with trinkets, gifts and other types of craziness. However, mistakes are accepted as long as the effort is there. What it really boils down to is sharing. I feel the best way to share is through cooking. Our relationship with great food is what connects all of us. Everyone can remember a great meal. Going out or staying in, Valentine's Day is the best day to put that effort forward. Elevate the at home experience of making dinner for that special someone by pairing with wine. You can follow a few simple rules about food and wine that will make you an expert… for the night at least.
First, stick with 3 courses. It's no fun being in the kitchen the entire time. My 1st Course is a soup or bisque. This will be served hot, which requires the other person to cool it off and there is slurping, so it's sexy. Remember to keep this light and try to make it vegetarian. It will pair easier with light wines:
Roasted Red Pepper & Sun-dried Tomato Bisque – Pair with Amado Sur Torrontes or Casillero del Diablo Sauvignon Blanc
The 2nd course is where you can flex a bit more. This is a steak course. If you want to go with chicken, use dark meat. If fish is the choice, go with something really rich…and the sauce MUST be a bold one.
Peppercon Crusted Ribeye Steak or Balsaminc & Brown Sugar Roasted Chicken or Lemon Curry Salmon with Truffle Honey Drizzle…plus Duckfat Roasted Fingerling Potatoes & Charred Broccoli – Pair with Amado Sur Malbec or ANY Concha Y Toro Carmenere
For my 3rd course, I don't play around. It's chocolate ALL DAY! I like to make dessert, cover it and hide it in the refrigerator. Dessert on Valentine's Day has the strongest lasting power and CHOCOLATE always works. unless the person is allergic J
This might a bit adventurous for the average home cook, order from us, visit a local bakery or Mariano's and pick up a dessert like this.
Flourless Chocolate Cake with Raspberry Compote & Chocolate Mousse – Pair with Casillero del Diablo "Late Harvest" Sauvignon Blanc
There are plenty of ways to have a meal like this at home. You can order our "Valentine's Day Take Home Menu". You can also check various food websites for recipes. Still I encourage not to do too much, too fast. And if you want to just go out and not deal with the clean-up after making a meal like this, visit us at www.taleof2chefs.com and purchase tickets to our Valentine's Day Pop-Up Restaurant.
Happy Cooking and Happy Valentine's Day from Chef Julius and A Tale of Two Chefs…
