There were worse places to be last season than on the court playing for the hapless 12-win Nets, the worst team in basketball, as they tried to avoid a dubious place in the history books.
Bobby Simmons had to sit on the bench and watch it.
"It wasn't pleasant and it wasn't pretty," said the 30-year-old forward. "It was something to endure to get another chance."
That new chance is in San Antonio with an unguaranteed contract, but at least an opportunity to play that huge chip off his shoulder following a year's worth of frustration in New Jersey.
"The organization wanted to go in another direction, as far as developing the young guys," Simmons said. "As far as the veterans, they said, 'If we can get you out of here, we will.' But after the trade deadline, we were stuck there. There was nothing we could do.
"As a veteran, I took the punches and continued to work out and tried to get better. As far as playing, that wasn't an option.
"It was tough, probably tougher than the ankle injury (stress reaction) I had (in 2006). I was healthy and ready to play and wasn't given an opportunity. I figured when we weren't winning in the beginning I would get that opportunity, but it didn't happen at all."
Actually, Simmons played in the first 18 games of last season, all losses as the Nets set a record for consecutive season-opening defeats. But coach Lawrence Frank was fired after the 16th game and that's when Simmons' role headed toward a cliff. After two games under interim coach Tom Barrise, he was buried at the end of the bench when Kiki Vandeweghe took over.
"To be honest, I wasn't sure if those guys were ready to be head coaches," Simmons said. "That's my opinion."
Either way, it's been a long fall for Simmons since he was named the NBA's Most Improved Player by averaging 16.4 points for the L.A. Clippers in 2004-05. It was that performance that got him signed to a five-year, $47 million free agent contract by Milwaukee that finally ended last season with him making $11.2 million to be one of the league's wealthiest spectators.
Now it's about demonstrating that he's still got something to contribute and he chose the Spurs over offers from Washingon, Dallas and Chicago.
"It's the continuity of the team here, having veteran guys that know how to play the game and want to win that made the difference," Simmons said. "This is a franchise that has proven over and over that they know how to win."
The Spurs are seeking a reliable backup to Richard Jefferson at the small forward spot, preferably someone who can aggressively and effectively defend the position.
"If I had my druthers in a perfect world, I'd want Bruce Bowen to be 28 years old and back on our team," said San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich. "But I'm not gonna find Bruce Bowen. So if I can find somebody close, who can be as big a pain in the ass as he was, that would be great. So far I haven't been able to do that.
"[Bruce] knew what he could do well and he did it. He couldn't dribble. He couldn't pass. I never ran a play for him. But he had a helluva distinctive career, did a great job and helped us win championships because he accepted that role. You probably can't replace that. So if I can get somebody who can at least spell defense, say the word once in a while, then I'll know they have some interest in it. Beyond that, the worse they are defensively, the better they better be able to shoot or there's no reason to have them around."
Simmons was the fifth-best 3-point percentage shooter for the Nets in the 2008-2009 season when he hit at a 44.7 clip while playing just over 24 minutes a game. Throughout his career, he's been a defender, a wingman, a post player, getting time as a small forward, power forward and even playing some shooting guard.
"He did a little bit of everything," Popovich said. "He's kind of like a utility infielder in a way. He shoots it pretty well. He knows how to pass it. He has a pace about him. He understands how the game is played.
"Do you want him to play the 3 or the 4? Do you want to emphasize defense or offense? Is he gonna fit in with the group the way you want to play? All those things we're trying to evaluate right now."
So Simmons arrived in San Antonio without a guarantee and wanted to show that he's better at this point in his career than what the conventional wisdom might say.
"I'm a guy who's been on good teams, bad teams, relied on my defense and on my offense, been hurt and I've been healthy," he said. "But in my years in the league, there's only one thing I couldn't handle. That's why I'm here to do anything the Spurs ask me to do."
Just don't ask him to watch.

Thanks to seeswo for sending me this in the 2011 Black Booty BIF. This early fall-feeling night seemed like the perfect occasion to crack this one open on. 2011 vintage, poured into snifter.
A: Pours a deep amber-brown color, with a finger of tan head topping off the glass. A bit of lacing remains.
S: Bourbon, caramel, vanilla, molasses, brown sugar, toffee, and just a bit of alcohol. Great barleywine aroma.
T: Taste follows smell, with a hint more of alcohol coming in alongside oak to add to what was already there. Personally, I'm loving the alcohol alongside the great flavor- the spice and warmth accent it perfectly. Fantastic.
M: Medium-thick body with light carbonation. Its sticky characteristics accent the finish perfectly, allowing the flavor to linger in my mouth for minutes after a sip. Considering the strong body on this one, I'm wondering if it would hold up to a cigar. If I ever get my hands on a few more bottles of this, it will be something to try out.
O: Amazing beer; I was concerned that I hadn't aged it long enough when I gave in to opening it tonight, but it's certainly already an amazing beer to drink. Have a glass of this if you're lucky enough to be in its distribution range; you won't go wrong. This rivals Hoppin Frog's Naked Evil for my favorite barleywine to date, and very well may have just overtaken it.

A: Pours a dark amber color with a 2 finger tan head that dissipates quickly to a light ring. Blotchy lacing.
S: Big boozy bourbon fills the nose with hints of caramel, vanilla, and toffee.
T: Again sweet bourbon overpowers everything. I get hints of brown sugar, vanilla, and toffee.
M: Fills up the palate nicely with a creamy sticky feel.
O: Another good bourbon barrel beer from Central Waters. A little age might mellow this out.

Our foyer somehow became the dumping ground for homeless items after the water leak. My goal last weekend was to empty the foyer, find places for these items, and remove the baseboard and crown molding so I can paint before new flooring.
I got most of it done Saturday, but Sunday Hubby called. He had been at the lease in the beastmobile and the belt broke when we was about an hour away from home. In fact, two belts broke. He had an old spare, changed it, drove about two miles and then it snapped too. The worst part was that it was cold Sunday. We were under a winter storm warning, with freezing rain predicted. But he called a tow truck and I met him at the repair shop, transferred all his stuff into the car, and brought him home.
So this is as much as I got done.
Ripping off the framed tapestry popped a sheetrock joint, so now I get to fix that. Then paint, and finally floor!

Williams elated with TT victory
By KEVIN SUNICH Wednesday, March 27 2013 RED FORCE coach David Williams said he is very proud of his players after their ten-wicket demolition of the Combined Colleges and Campuses (CCC) in three days in their Regional Four-day match at the Queens Park Oval on Monday. The former West Indies assistant-coach said while a couple of individuals performed excellently, it was an all-round team effort. We did not start well but young Jason Mohammed and Dwayne Bravo played well together and got us out of a spot of bother after we lost a couple of early wicket. It was tremendous and then the other guys just topped it off, said Williams

Scotland: Shopping bags could be a threat to shoppers` health as they harbour deadly food poisoning micro-organisms, researchers have said. Tests conducted on shopping bags of a total of 84 shoppers have revealed that almost half of them contained traces of E.coli, a lethal micro-organism that killed 26 people in Scotland in 1996 in one of the world`s worst food poisoning outbreaks. Scientists from the University of Arizona in the US also found many bags were contaminated with salmonella, The Telegraph reported. Many of the shopping bags were made from jute or woven polypropylene. While they helped to reduce the amount of plastic used in carrier bags by 40 per cent in just the last three years, the research says they could be harmful if not cleaned regularly. The study revealed 97 per cent of shoppers who used eco-friendly bags never washed or bleached them. There are hundreds of people who use "permanent" shopping bags, and a vast majority do not wash their bags after each shopping trip, according to Wrap, the British government`s anti-waste watchdog. The researchers warned the levels of bacteria they found were high enough to cause a wide range of serious health problems and even death. Children may be in the greatest danger, they said. "Our findings suggest a serious threat to public health, especially from bacteria such as E.coli, which were detected in half of the bags sampled. Consumers are alarmingly unaware of these risks and the need to sanitise their bags on a weekly basis," Charles Gerba, who led the study, said.
E. coli cases in Britain are on the increase, the Health Protection Agency said, adding that there were 25,532 reported cases in 2009, a seven percent increase compared to 2008. ANI

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- Syracuse police are investigating their second homicide in less than 24 hours. Officers responded to 116 Maplewood Avenue around 10 p.m. Saturday to check on a man who had not been seen recently. They found Pleamon Fletcher, 69, dead inside. Investigators later determined that his death was a homicide. The news comes as a shock to those who live in the neighborhood.
"We've lived her over 20 years and that's one of the reasons why we've stayed is I mean this neighborhood is very quiet and everybody knows each other. When I heard what had happened it was a complete shock because I would have never thought something like that would happen on this street ever," said Peter Smith, neighbor.
Police are still looking to speak with anyone with more information. If you have information that could help, you can call Syracuse Police at (315) 442-5222.

After receiving partial approval for its new capital plan from the Federal Reserve, Zions Bancorp. (ZION - Analyst Report) commenced with the implementation of the same. Consequently, the company announced its plans to redeem Series B Trust Preferred Securities (TruPS).
The company will redeem 8% Series B TruPS comprising 11.4 million shares. Collectively, these securities have a liquidation value of $285 million. The redemption is scheduled on May 3, 2013.
Zions has fixed the price of redemption of its securities at 100% of the liquidation amount which equals to $25 per share. The company will pay this redemption price along with the distributions outstanding and due on the securities up to the date of redemption to its shareholders.
In Mar 2013, the Fed partially approved Zions' Capital Plan, due to which the company is required to re-submit its capital plan after incorporating a few amendments. The capital plan includes the redemption of Series C perpetual preferred stock worth $600 million and subordinated debt and senior debt worth $250 million. In addition, Zions plans to issue $600 million of additional perpetual preferred stock that includes $171 million worth of Series G preferred shares, which have been issued in Feb 2013.
Further, Zions has sought to redeem Series C shares worth $798 million. Also, management is keen on receiving approval to issue an additional perpetual preferred stock worth $200 million to fully redeem the Series C stock.
Apart from Zions, other financial institutions that have implemented their capital plans after receiving the Fed's approval include Citigroup, Inc. (C - Analyst Report) and Bank of America Corporation (BAC - Analyst Report). Citigroup plans to redeem TruPS worth $3 billion. On the other hand, BofA will be redeeming 8.20%, Series H, non-cumulative preferred stock and 8.625%, Series 8, non-cumulative preferred stock.
The redemption of the TruPS is expected to auger well for Zions as it will provide an opportunity to the bank to reduce its interest expenses and will help in restructuring the balance sheet.
Zions currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Among others, American River Bankshares (AMRB - Snapshot Report) is a better performing bank with a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Hello, I am new to this whole forum thing and from the Marsicano branch of the family that were nephews and niece to Pope Pius XII... he was a part of the family. There is an excellent book written about the Marsicano branch of the Pacelli family when they first arrived in Pennsylvania, though the name currently escapes me. I can ask my grandmother about it next time I talk to her. By the way, I don't know of any of you know Joseph Ralph Marsicano (my grandfather), but he is in the later stages of Alzheimer's. As one of the first generation of Marsicanos to be born in America, I was hoping that someone who knows of him or about him might be willing to pray for his well-being and maybe let me know of any interesting anecdotes about him. Thank you all. -Sincerely, Brian M. Marsicano Notify Administrator about this message?

Steve Smith's ton gives Oz control on day one of fifth Ashes Test
Sydney, Jan 3 : Australia has ended the first day of the fifth and final Ashes Test in Sydney with another commanding performance with the bat despite initial trouble, boosted by a century from all-rounder Steve Smith.
At stumps on day one, England is trailing by 318 runs with nine wickets remaining in the first innings.
Smith's 115 before his wicket was taken by Ben Stokes, and Brad Haddin's 75 bailed out the Australian top-order after an initial troublesome spell with the bat.
Meanwhile, England was sent on the back foot once again with the early wicket of Michael Carberry in their first innings.

Telling Lies In America
Karchy and father are pinning their hopes on the American Citizen Exams for the beginning of Karchy's bright future, but his coming-of-age pursuit of excitement, in the form of sex and a shady club scene, begin to lead him from the path perviously carved out.
The initial impression given by this modest little movie is of another pop-musical period piece, tugging on the spangly coat-tails of That Thing You Do! and Grace Of My Heart. But where such nostalgia trips have bathed in an indulgent, rosy glimmer, a creditable air of earthy realism blows among these Cadillac fins and gelled quiffs, with shiny but shallow 60s pop a perfect metaphor for the tarnishing American dream. Such sensitivity is all the more surprising in that it issues from the pen of normally salacious scripter Joe Eszterhas.
This is coming-of-age, rites-of-passage stuff, with the focus on fame-hungry Karchy (Renfro). Following the usual rules of combat - pursuit of girls and sex, standing up for oneself, discovering the tricksy burden of morality - accepted teen troubles are made more awkward by his Hungarian descent and accent. And as the American citizenship exams he and his father are pinning their hopes on loom, Karchy wheedles his way into the employ of charismatic but shady DJ Billy Magic (Bacon), which may or may not be a smart move. All flashy front and broadcast patter, Bacon is in sly, effective form - his character as much an outsider as his youthful co-star's - with Renfro's equally solid performance backing up decent turns in Sleepers, The Client and The Cure, and securing him the current top spot among his generation. Maximilian Schell is rather wasted as Dr. Jonas, but Flockhart is rightly given greater room to shine than in The Birdcage as the reluctant object of Karchy's affections.
A carefully evoked and unhurried number that won't bring the house down, this nonetheless ends up being more absorbing than you'd think.

TV has taught me there is no such thing as cohesive, stable, functional families. Most main characters (especially if they're cops/detectives) had dysfunctional and/or abusive childhoods. In fact it's practically a prerequisite for the job.
While we're at it, TV has taught me that suburbia is horrible! It's boring, houses are all the same, people are either mind numbed robots or covering up for hypocritical, heinous lifestyles. They stifle creativity!
Cities (downtown areas in particular) is where normal, hip people want to live.

[–]Redz0ne 0 points1 point2 points 7 months ago
Fascinating... But isn't asking that much in such a short time inviting disaster?
... I say this with no actual knowledge of how vast the Unix/Ubuntu crowd actually is. Though, that said, I hope (as an aspiring game-developer) that they'll incorporate a sort of app store infrastructure... the businessman inside of me would love to be able to tap that market (as long as I can make the games worthwhile.)
[–]ReAzem 1 point2 points3 points 7 months ago
The existing store isn't enough? It's part of the magic. Ubuntu mobile is just a new interface, all the apps are the same, you can tune your apps for mobile if you want tho.
aah, okay. I didn't know there was already a marketplace. That said, if there is one there already i wonder how difficult it'd be to develop software for this new mobile?
(like i said, i'm not informed about Ubuntu/Unix/etc... I know it's there, I know it's powerful and such but that's about it. I had a friend that tried to convert me but at the time he couldn't guarantee that i'd be able to run all the programs i needed to run.)
You should try to boot Ubuntu from a live cd :) Have fun!
Well, if it can run the development tools i need (for game development) i'd be awfully tempted since everyone i talk to that's tried it has said nothing but good stuff.
... But I only have one computer and if anything happened to it, i'd be shit outta luck for what i do for a living. Maybe when i have another to play around with and/or more time/freedom to do so... then yeah... but i think i'll have to wait until i can get the stuff i'm working on shipped first before i'll go that route.
[–]Kalium 2 points3 points4 points 7 months ago
Depends what kind of game development you're doing.
A LiveCD, for the record, boots Ubuntu entirely from the CD. It does exactly nothing to your OS unless you request it to.
well, more PC development... so, i have to be able to run the modeling packages, texture painting programs and the Unity game engine. I've heard of shells that will let you do so which will emulate the Windows and iOS software... but still, it's something i'm not quite ready to do... yet.
[–]Kalium 1 point2 points3 points 7 months ago
Grab a LiveCD and try it. It's literally no risk to your data.
[–]Caethy 1 point2 points3 points 7 months ago
Going to give you the bad news here.
Unity's development is restricted to Windows and OSX. While you can deploy the eventual result to Linux, the development tools are limited to OSX and Windows. As for modelling and texture painting. No industry standard programs really run on Linux. There's probably going to be someone who responds to me telling me that Blender and GIMP are just as capable as Maya and Photoshop.
I like Linux and used Ubuntu as my desktop OS for years; But the sad truth is that a lot of professional creative tools are simply not available on the platform.
aah... okay.
maybe there should be some pressure put on the Unity developers to address this lacking? I'm sure that there are a good chunk of Unix users that have some game ideas they'd like to see made real.
that said, I'm still going to have at least one MS computer here where I am... if for no other reason than to have something i'm familiar with. :) like i said though, maybe once i have access to more computers i'll give it a go but for now i'm actually okay using this OS.
[–]CameronNemo 0 points1 point2 points 7 months ago*
You can always dual boot. Also, the Unity people do want to see Unity dev tools running on Linux, but they license some code that does not run on Linux and therefore have to completely replace that code to make it run.
[–]CameronNemo 0 points1 point2 points 7 months ago
There's probably going to be someone who responds to me telling me that Blender and GIMP are just as capable as Maya and Photoshop.
But Maya runs on Linux . . . .
You can't develop with the Unity engine on Linux, but you can target Linux. You can run Windows in QEMU or Virtualbox or try to run the programs you want in WINE.
Aah, yeah... "Wine" is ringing some bells here... maybe that's what the person that tried to convert me was pointing to?
[–][deleted] 7 months ago*
Fair enough.
... though to be honest i'm still going to wait until this project is concluded... just to be safe for now. (call me irrationally paranoid. i don't mind.) :)

Swapping clothes with Kristen again? Robert Pattinson appears to have raided his girlfriend's wardrobe in floral-lined jacket
By Iona Kirby
They often share clothes with each other and Kristen Stewart enjoys wearing items belonging to boyfriend Robert Pattinson to further her grungy style.
But it didn't quite have the same effect when Robert appeared to have borrowed something from Kristen's wardrobe on Saturday.
The Twilight star was sporting a rather feminine black jacket, which looked a little too small for him and had a bright floral lining.
In touch with his feminine side: Robert Pattinson was sporting a small black jacket with bright floral lining at JFK airport in New York on Saturday
Aside from the stylish jacket, Robert's look was typical for the actor as he arrived at JFK airport in New York.
He was sporting a grey T-shirt along with matching skinny jeans.
Robert attempted to go incognito for his travelled and wore sunglasses and a baseball cap as he made his way through the airport.
Incognito: The actor, who was dressed all in black and grey, wore a baseball cap and sunglasses as he made his way to board a plane
The 26-year-old was carrying just his guitar in a black case and wore a rucksack on his back.
Perhaps the star was heading to his native England to spend Christmas with his family.
Robert has been keeping his head covered up with hats recently, and appears to have cut his sandy locks very short.
The Cosmopolis actor was travelling alone, with Kristen nowhere to be seen.
Music man: The 26-year-old carried his guitar in a black case and wore a rucksack on his back
The 22-year-old was spotted jetting out of the Big Apple last week, suggesting the hot young couple may be spending the holidays apart.
Following the end of the Twilight Saga this year, Robert is keeping himself busy and has three movies for release in 2013.
He stars in Western film The Rover, Gertrude Bell biopic Queen of the Desert, and Maps to the Stars, which is set to take a complex look at Hollywood.

Expert Reviews
Wine.comA superb Mouton, the 2005 is composed of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Merlot, and a dollop of Cabernet Franc. Under the new administrator, Philippe Dalhuin, the strictest selection of any recent vintage was instituted (64% of the production was used), and the 2005's 13.5% natural alcohol is one of the highest ever achieved at this estate. While not as good as the 1986 or 1982, the 2005 is a brilliant wine offering a classic inky/blue/purple color along with notions of creme de cassis, licorice, an...

I have received a TON of help here from you all--and I am anxious to get my projects done to show you and thank you for all your help. After all, it's only trolls who ask for help and never do anything with it, right?
However, for reasons best not gone into, it looks as if I will have to put my plans on hold...indefinitely. It frustrates me, angers me and dissapoints me greatly.
BUT I don't want any of you to think I was just stringing you all along. I mean, I'm always anxious to find out what people decided...excited to see their finished projects...and I'd feel a little used, if after all my input, they just vanished into the wild blue yonder.......
So, I just wanted to let you all know....in case anyone else obsesses like I do! ;)
very well said.....
Jainey very well said and i couldn't agree with you more! i think decorating comes on all levels and forms for people and what we get out of it is individually unique. in an ideal world (which would be boring!) where time, money and motivation was endless all our homes would be completely done to our liking. but then this forum wouldn't exist or be necessary and that would be a real loss in my opinion. to me this forum serves as a sounding board for all us decorating junkies and gives all of us a chance to share our dreams, wishes and goals for our homes. nobody in their sane mind would expect that every piece of advice offered has be put to use right away or at all. no offence should be taken or envy should be felt towards those that do or don't. let's just continue to share our experiences here and do our best to remain sensitive adults!:D-
I've been in a perhaps similar situation for more than four years. It's been rough keeping my ducks in a row for that kind of time. ;)
Thankfully, I love the process of decorating, or as Jainey says, "just thinking about it". I totally agree! I love reading about what other people are working on, and being able to see their pictures is a bonus that's very inspiring. I never tire of threads about the 'perfect white', or painting kitchen cabinets. When I actually DO get around to a time when I can update my kitchen, I'll be so prepared! In the meantime, my before and after photos will continue to be mostly garden ones.
When life gives you lemons, throw out the lemons when life isn't looking....and then go outside and play in the garden! :D
maybe this needs to be out in the air....i certainly can read between the lines of your JEALOUSY comments....could you be more detailed as to who is jealous of who and why....i once told someone that i have no need to be jealous, i was indeed accused of this myself and i found that comment to be immature and that tells me that perhaps the person is insecure or is it that this person thinks that they are beyond everyone else.... as difficult as life may get, im just as blessed and i find accusing people of jealousy as adults....just doesnt seem right! do you ever wonder if there could be other reasons or is it because you just dont want to see it, so decide to take the easy way out and say its jealousy
Y'know...part of what I enjoy most about decorating and design is the hours and hours of pleasure I get from it just thinking about it. Truly...going through my home room by room in my mind, tweaking here or moving the furniture there is one of the most valuable ways I have for getting my mind off of the craziness of my work at the end of the day and actually relaxing enough to get to sleep. Sometimes I even "decorize" (decorate/fantasize) on other people's houses...hehe. Coming online, looking at magazines and watching shows are all ways to enhance this . Many of those thoughts turn into a project, but not always. My home is a living organism, it's changing and evolving, as I grow and develop too. Sometimes the things that happen first are for practicality sake, or are compromises for financial reasons. So when I read your posts, or post myself - I don't anticipate you're all painting frantically inbetween threads. In fact, I'm sure many of you have a lot of things on the go, that make it barely possible to get the time to even dream, some days. So when projects do come together and I see a picture- I like celebrating with everyone - sometimes our thoughts which inspired others, may be the only thing we have energy to do. Maybe it's not about decorating at all - just that a lot of folks with some similar interests are connecting with each other.
I'd like to keep participating, though...as long as I don't get thrwarted by envy. :(
I think most of us have a budget, but I have never felt that I am unwelcome to participate here. Mostly I like to read. :) But sadly I do see a lot of envy and jealousy here. I'll try not to let it get to me if you do the same I Love color! :D :p
no worries, there are more important things in life than redoing one's house (sounds a bit odd for this forum I know but really...), you're just prioritizing things according to circumstance
look at this as an opportunity to make even more thought-out selections (or continue to debate with yourself between options a b and c)...
hope everything works out
what's that line - "Life is what happens while we make other plans" ?
mmm that is a new one to me, never heard that before and what does it have to do with asking for help and not following through
im sorry but im not understanding what you are upset about....could you please explain. Are you worried that if you ask for help and dont do it right away, that its wrong to ask. Heck if that is the case, dont you worry about that, when it gets done it gets done....so be it....i ask questions but that doesnt mean im running out tomorrow to do it, i may do it in six months or never, i just sometimes brainstorm
in internet language it is someone who posts inaccurate or disruptive upsetting messages...
but I do not think ILC knew what it meant when she posted it...
What is a troll?
I ask and get advise, some times use it and some times don't...but I get things done in my way over time....I am never in a rush...I am a tortoise on a budget.. not a troll... :confused:
Redoing ones home takes a lot of thought and research before deciding on what the final decision will be. A lot of us have budget or time issues. Especially now that summer is here, I myself have found it hard to start sanding away at drywall and pulling up the floors etc, when I would much rather be outside sitting in the pool!
I speak for myself when I say that not always have I posted the completed room after asking for help on here, as I have just moved onto the next room, and so carry on. If someone shows interest in what the outcome was, then by all means I will post a pic.
But my point is, calling some of us trolls, is a little too harsh. We will get the projects done sometime...

A gallery of Sprint QChat phones
Sprint's Samsung Instinct has taken center stage as CTIA, but the carrier has more to offer in Las Vegas. Monday it also unveiled its first series of QChat phones (see our Sprint QChat slide show for the eye candy), which for the first time offer push-to-talk interoperability between CDMA and iDEN networks. There's no mishmash of competing technologies here. The QChat phones make and receive PTT calls through Nextel's Direct Connect service. Oh, and incidentally, QChat marks the final nail in the coffin of Sprints previous ReadyLink PTT service.

Francesca by Lies Thru a Lens on Flickr.
A través de Flickr:Model - FrancescaYear Taken - December 2013Camera - Sony A7RLens - Sigma 50mm f/1.4EGLocation - ApartmentFrancesca Did I mention she has the sexiest lips Ive ever seen? Ive been wanting to do a retro styled shoot for ages and today, I was lucky enough to work with Frankie. I couldn't decide what period of retro I wanted to do, so I thought Id try and nail as many as possible. This image, for me, represents an attempt at trying got nail the 60's fashion look. No makeup artist, no hair stylist - just trying to let Frankie be herself and let her come through. I rented a four poster room in a posh hotel in the middle of town, and thought that it'd be the best way to get as many authentic images as possible (I don't use studios anymore, far too limiting and staged). So, meet Frankie. She is half Italian, with a BA in Psychology. She is stunningly beautiful, but that goes without saying and she is a fantastic model. I didn't want her to pose, I just wanted her to be herself and let me move around the room and capture her from different angles. None of these images are setup, they are just her, losing herself in front of the camera, forgetting Im even there. That way, I think you get to capture the soul of the person you are with, not just their looks. Like I said, she is beautiful. But on top of that, she is a lovely, lovely girl with a great sense of humour and one of the most empathetic personalities Ive ever known. She listens, she inspires and she is great company. I can't wait to work with her again, easily one of the best models Ive worked with.
Nikon D800E Photos of Pretty Blonde Swimsuit Bikini Model Goddess: Malibu Sea Cave on El Matador Beach! by 45SURF Hero's Journey Mythology Goddesses on Flickr.
A través de Flickr: Nikon D800 E Photos of Pretty Blonde Swimsuit Bikini Model Goddess standing with a black 45surf surfboard in front of Malibu Sea Caves on El Matador State Beach! A classic California blue-eyed blond beach babe! Look closely, and you will see that I—Johnny Ranger McCoy— am the cowboy on her shirt! Also on the shirt are the stages of the epic Hero's Journey, modified for 45surf & the gold 45 revolver! Here is some epic video I shot of the gorgeous goddess at the same time as the stills with the Sony Alpha NEX 6 camera with the 50 mm F/1.8 prime lens for nex6 e mount cameras bracketed to my Nikon D800E (cool bokeh!):www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7geL3rFcP0www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vI7jWGv4mgwww.youtube.com/watch?v=yrKPz-XY4WAwww.youtube.com/watch?v=afUY1TyUrZE The blue-eyed goddess was modeling the gold 45 revolver gold'n'virtue bikini with the famous golden gun/colt 45 revolver from my favorite film—Sergio Leone's and Clint Eastwood's "Fistful of Dollars!" Combine the shallow-depth-of-field with Sony NEX-6's latest face-tracking auto focus, and you can see how the moving video keeps the model's pretty blue eyes in focus, while blurring the background! The Sony Alpha NEX 6 has much better bokeh than the cameras I have been using! :) She was tall, thin, fit, toned, defined, and beautiful! Modeling the Gold 45 Revolver(TM) Gold'N'Virtue(TM) American Flag Bikini! Stars & Stripes Forever! :) Nikon D800E Photographs of a Beautiful Sandy-Blonde/Brunette Swimsuit Bikini Model shot with the Nikon D800E and Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II AF-S Nikkor Zoom Lens with a CP—the B W 77mm XS-Pro Kaesemann Circular Polarizer with Multi-Resistant Nano Coatin, all on the amazing Nikon D800E Camera. Shot in both RAW & JPEG, but all these photos are RAWs finished in Lightroom 5 ! :) All the Gold'N'Virtue bikinis and 45surf clothes have the main equation to Moving Dimensions Theory on the swimsuits: dx4/dt=ic. Yes I have a Ph.D. in physics! :) You can read more about my research and Hero's Journey Physics here: herosjourneyphysics.wordpress.com/ MDT PROOF#2: Einstein (1912 Man. on Rel.) and Minkowski wrote x4=ict. Ergo dx4/dt=ic—the foundational equation of all time and motion which is on all the shirts and swimsuits. Every photon that hits my Nikon D800e's sensor does it by surfing the fourth expanding dimension, which is moving at c relative to the three spatial dimensions, or dx4/dt=ic! On the shirt is the classic hero's journey which you can apply to your epic journey into photography! YOUR HERO'S JOURNEY INTO PHOTOGRAPHY: DEPARTURE: The Call to Adventure: You witness a spectacular sunset. How do you capture the beauty? Refusal of the Call: The Nikon D800 costs too much/HDR is too hard to learn. Supernatural Aid: The wisdom of the Greats and books and tutorials mentor and inspire you. The Crossing of the First Threshold: You invest in a Nikon D800, 14-24mm F/2.8 Nikkor wide-angle lens, and Photomatix software. Belly of The Whale: Your work is falling short of your vision. Tired, stressed, and disoriented in Photomatix. INITIATION: The Road of Trials (and Errors!): You press on, regardless, by and by learning Photomatix as "Mistakes are the portals of discovery!". The Meeting With the Goddess: Success! One of your photos "SNAPS" into place. Woman as Temptress: What worked for one instance is no longer working. Sometimes seeming success leads down the wrong path. Atonement with the Father: You must transcend your mentors and the "experts" in exalting your own personal voice. In becoming oneself, one "atones" with their teachers and mentors, forgiving them for their mistakes, as one embraces their own. Apotheosis: Realizing your full potential and unique vision and voice. The Ultimate Boon: Exalting your artistic potential in a finished print. RETURN: Refusal of the Return: Unable to market/sell the awesome work. The Magic Flight: A gallery agrees to host your photography! Rescue from Without: A magazine miraculously picks up your photography! Your once-blind faith in following beauty is finally rewarded! The Crossing of the Return Threshold: Returning home to serve an audience as an HDR photographer. Master of Two Worlds: On your laptop's screen is a portal out to the brand new world of HDR—a world you can share with others! You can enter the HDR world at will. Freedom to Live: Financial freedom to pursue your artistic dreams! May the Hero's Journey Mythology Goddess inspire you (as they have inspired me!) along your own artistic journey! Love, love, love the 70-200mm F/2.8 Lens! :) All the Best on Your Epic Hero's Journey from Johnny Ranger McCoy!
Ais by Lies Thru a Lens on Flickr.
A través de Flickr:Model - AisYear Taken - May 2013Camera - Nikon D800ELens - Nikon 85mm f/1.4GLocation - StudioAis (pronounced Ash - I Think) Today I did a shoot with a guy named Scott (no, thats not him in the photos :)). We worked with Ais, if you remember her. This is the girl who used to work for Nikon and received the 50% discount, the one I declared my love for based on that and certain other qualities :). Well, she has dyed her hair a kind of blond colour and it makes her look so different, so we decided to do some different styles. As Ive said before, she is a stunningly attractive girl and she is preparing for Paris fashion week in a few weeks time. Visit Scott's profile here, he has got some great images and probably some better ones of Ais than I managed :). Hope you enjoy.
Shelby by Lies Thru a Lens on Flickr.
A través de Flickr:Model - ShelbyYear Taken - May 2013Camera - Nikon D3sLens - Nikon 105mm f/2.8GLocation - StudioShelby Ok, some models come pre-Photoshopped, Shelby comes pre-Photoshopped, Lightroomed, OnOned and she probably has an inbuilt plugin for whichever editing program you favour. She has that "model" look that "models" seldom have. So you engage in a shoot where you end up constantly moving, checking your camera, fiddling with the lighting, looking for help from your fellow photographer (none comes back) because you are getting great photo after great photo and something seems wrong. She is 20 years old, but she holds herself like a film star, with a look that is so contextual in front of the camera as if she is advertising perfume or something. She is a great laugh, funny as hell but able to move into serious mode in an instant. We got some great photos and I hope you like them as much as I do.Lighting Natural light.Processing Slight cross process.

A través de Flickr:Model - ElizabethYear Taken - April 2013Camera - Nikon D800ELens - Nikon 85mm f/1.4GLocation - StudioElizabeth Do you know that its actually possible to work with somebody too pretty? This is Elizabeth and when I met her today, I was certain that I wouldnt get a single shot that was as pretty as she actually is. She is 19 years old and has such natural beauty that she comes pre-Photoshopped and in all honesty, it makes life harder! Some models you look at and you know what will suit them, what wont, and you work to that. You hide their flaws, you emphasise their beauty and you bring out the best of them and afterwards, you can look back and feel proud of yourself. With Elizabeth, it doesnt matter what angle you shoot, what f-stop, what lighting - she looks perfect, and I dont like that :). The other annoying thing to consider is she isnt even a model, she is a make-up artist!!!
Emma by Lies Thru a Lens on Flickr.
A través de Flickr: ne incredibly versatile model!!! Meet Emma. She is half Indian, quarter Pakistani, and absolutely breathtaking. She is probably, to my mind, the most beautiful model I have worked with and taking portraits of her was absolutely wonderful. We spent all day together, working on some intense portraits, some candid boudoir and lingerie photos and a little bit of fashion. I think she has an enchanting aura about her and I cant wait to edit more photos :).
A través de Flickr:Model - EmmaYear Taken - March 2013Camera - Nikon D800eLens - Nikon 85mm f.1.4GLocation - StudioEmma I think Emma is the most versatile model I have ever worked with. Having been rummaging through my old and unedited images of Emma, I have uncovered a sea of forgotten photos of her that remain untouched. Therefore, over the coming days I will be editing the twenty or so good images of her that I have unearthed. Surprisingly, she looks different in each one. I hope you enjoy.

A través de Flickr:Model - NatashaYear Taken - October 2013Camera - Nikon D800eLens - Nikon 85mm f.1.4GLocation - StudioNatasha Natasha is incredible, in every sense of the word. She turned up a good 40 minutes early and we got to know a little about each other before the shoot started. She is from Bournemouth, she is a vegan, she is covered from head to foot in tattoos and she has one of the cutest expressions in photos that Ive seen. She said that a lot of people think she is no older than 16, when in fact, she is 23. In some ways, the tattoos do not go with the face, but somehow, she makes the contrast between them and her innocent looks work. It truly is a juxtaposition. We spent a good four hours together and we got some amazing shots. We did a little fashion, some lingerie, some art nude and some boudoir. Some of them, most in fact, were done with no studio lighting at all. The sun was erratic, but we made it work. I hope you enjoy looking at the photos, I loved taking them.
