For the last two playoff runs, knee issues have hindered Dwyane Wade. He has some serious tendonitis in his knee and he hasn't looked like himself, except in spurts.
So this summer he went the shock treatment route.
Yes, shock treatment — it is sending shock waves into the impacted knee or other area, very different than the "One Few Over the Cuckoo's Nest" variety. It's a recognized medical practice, albeit one considered the last resort when other things haven't worked. While just how effective it can be is still up for debate by doctors doing studies, Wade said that it has worked for him, reports Ira Winderman at the Sun Sentinel.
"I had to take a month off after I did my treatment and this weekend will be a month to the day," he said during (his adult fantasy camp) at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. "It's the kind of treatment for tendinitis, certain areas in your knee….
"Feeling a lot better," Wade said at Thursday's event… I'm not at 'great' yet. I'm feeling a lot, lot better.
"Right now I have to work on the strengthening part of it. So, I still have time before the season. By the time the season [starts], I think I'll be as good as I've been."
That nice and all that he feels good at the start of the season, but can Erik Spoelstra scale back his minutes a little and have him feeling that good at the end of the season? That is what matters.
The East got deeper this summer and Miami is going to have to be better just to get out of the conference again, let alone go after a three-peat. They didn't make any serious roster moves (until Greg Oden plays a game he's not a difference maker) so they need improvement from within. Wade playing at or near his vintage self would certainly help that cause. But he's going to have to show me this works before I buy in.
Our quick look around the NBA, or what you missed while thinking Minnesota State Representative Pat Garofalo must be a small minded racist (is there another kind)… Jodie Meeks, Los Angles Lakers. Meeks epitomized the Lakers on this day — not only was he hot he was aggressive, and that's what led to his career…
Jodie Meeks scores a career high 42 points to help Lakers beat Thunder (VIDEO)
Mar 10, 2014, 12:27 AM EDT
There's no real reason the Lakers as currently constructed should beat a Thunder team that, coming into Sunday's contest, was tied with the Pacers for the league's best record. But this was just one of 82 for OKC on the way to a trip that will likely last deep into the postseason, and L.A., as…

That is what James Harden brings to the table — elite level scoring. He can flat out knock it down. That three gave Harden 17 points in the fourth quarter as the Rockets came from 13 back to force overtime on the shot above, then in OT Harden and Jeremy Lin (9 points in the…
Brandon Jennings: Detroit Pistons don't hold themselves accountable
Mar 9, 2014, 11:00 PM EDT
BOSTON – Do the Detroit Pistons hold each other accountable? "No," Brandon Jennings said directly. The Pistons' faint playoff hopes are disintegrating. With a 118-111 loss to the Boston Celtics on Sunday, Detroit has lost three straight, seven of eight and 10 of 12. The Atlanta Hawks lead the Pistons by three games with 19…
Nerlens Noel has yet to play an NBA game this season, after being selected sixth overall in last summer's draft by the Pelicans and then being traded to the Sixers in exchange for Jrue Holiday.

Coming into Sunday's contest, the Bulls had beaten the Heat six of the last seven times the teams met during the regular season in Chicago, and this video clip of action from the first half gives us a glimpse of the reason why. Chicago plays harder than any team in the league on a game-by-game…
Report: Cavaliers privately believe it's not too late to lure LeBron back to Cleveland
Mar 9, 2014, 12:30 PM EDT
LeBron James attended the jersey retirement ceremony of Zydrunas Ilgauskas on Saturday, a move that would have been viewed as unusual by NBA standards even before considering the history that exists between the star player and the team where he began his NBA career. James played his first seven seasons in Cleveland, before infamously spurning…
J.R. Smith throws it off the backboard, Amar'e Stoudemire finishes (VIDEO)
Mar 9, 2014, 11:00 AM EDT
This is a far cry from Chris Paul to DeAndre Jordan, but it's as close as the Knicks are likely to get. J.R. Smith leads the break late in the second quarter, and tosses it off the backboard for a trailing Amar'e Stoudemire. In the old days, Amar'e would have hammered this one home with…
Wizards' Martell Webster gets past Giannis Antetokounmpo for the fast break slam (VIDEO)
Mar 9, 2014, 8:00 AM EDT
This wasn't exactly a dunk on the Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo, but he was certainly in the vicinity. Martell Webster got loose on the break, and was quick enough to the rim to avoid the long rookie, but threw the dunk down with such force that he landed somewhat awkwardly on his backside.
Chris Paul goes off the backboard to DeAndre Jordan for slam (VIDEO)
Mar 9, 2014, 3:42 AM EDT
This is what the Clippers do, they put on a show. Midway through the first quarter Saturday night Chris Paul made the steal and it was a two-on-none fast break, so Paul went off the backboard to DeAndre Jordan for the slam. Not the best off the backboard I've ever seen, but not bad. The…
The Cavaliers raised the jersey of Zydrunas Ilgauskas to the rafters on Saturday, following a ceremony at halftime of Cleveland's matchup with the Knicks.

Kings' Carl Landry to miss remainder of the season with knee injury
Mar 8, 2014, 8:00 PM EDT
Carl Landry appeared in a career-high 81 games for the Warriors last season, and was a key reserve who averaged 10.8 points and six rebounds on a team that made it to the second round of the playoffs. The Kings haven't sniffed the postseason in eight years, but signed Landry to a four-year deal worth…
Report: Phil Jackson 'leaning toward' accepting offer to become Knicks president
Mar 8, 2014, 6:20 PM EDT
Phil Jackson was first offered a head coaching position with the Knicks this week, even though Mike Woodson is still (for reasons unknown) firmly in place. Jackson declined that one, so New York upped the ante with a front office job offer, one that Jackson would reportedly be deciding on in the coming week. No…
Paul Pierce's move to power forward adds twist to his career, Brooklyn Nets' season
Mar 8, 2014, 6:00 PM EDT
BOSTON – On Paul Pierce's first defensive possession as the Brooklyn Nets' full-time starting power forward, Serge Ibaka backed him down on the block. Pierce bodied Ibaka, keeping him out of the paint, and Ibaka threw the ball away. On the Oklahoma City Thunder's next possession, Ibaka posted up Pierce again. Pierce hardly yielded an…

Kappa Delta Rho (ΚΔΡ, also known as KDR) is an American college social fraternity, with 78 chapters (38 of which are active) spread out over the United States, primarily in the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic regions. Kappa Delta Rho's open motto is Honor Super Omnia, or Honor Above All Things.
Kappa Delta Rho was founded in room 14 of Old Painter Hall at Middlebury College in Middlebury, VT on May 17, 1905.[1] It formed out of the Middlebury Commons Club, and had ten principal founders: George Edwin Kimball, Irving Thurston Coates, John Beecher, Pierce Wordsworth Darrow, Thomas Howard Bartley, Benjamin Edward Farr, Gideon Russell Norton, Gino Arturo Ratti, Chester Monroe Walch and Roy Dyer Wood.[2]
Unusual among college fraternities, KDR's Alpha Chapter at Middlebury chose to coeducate in the early 1990s, due to a policy at the school against single-sex organizations. The chapter is once more the Alpha of the fraternity and the only chapter of the Kappa Delta Rho Society, and maintains its own traditions and a unique badge, slightly modified from the standard fraternity badge.
Kappa Delta Rho is the sole fraternity to have a chapter which co-educates within the North-American Interfraternity Conference.
The values of ΚΔΡ are: Fellowship, Leadership, Scholarship, Service, and Tradition and can be seen in its Credo and Precepts. The Credo first received national recognition in the fraternity world when The Fraternity Month published it in the October 1946 issue. The author is George E. Shaw, Alpha '10, (1885 – 1976), Director of Kappa Delta Rho, National Historian, and the first pledge of the fraternity. The Precepts were adopted by the 95th National Convention in 2006.
Since the Beginning, wherever men have come together, there have I been.
My membership is legion. From the humble home and from the stately mansion; from the rolling farms and from the noisy factories; from the East and West and North and South have my followers come.
They who understand my meaning have followed in the footsteps of the Man of Galilee. In peace, they have been their brother's keeper, and in the agony of war, their blood has enriched the Fields of Flanders and reddened the sands of the Pacific.
Their reward has been the Inspiration of their Youth; the Driving Power of their Manhood; the Memories of their Maturity. They have fought the good Fight and of these, my sons, I am justly proud,
Who am I? My name is FRATERNITY. And because I have given Man that which he craves, I shall endure. My sons shall neither falter nor fail. They shall add new lustre to my name.
Precepts of Kappa Delta Rho[edit]
As a Brother of the National Fraternity of Kappa Delta Rho, I have but one aim: to lead an honorable life.
To this end, I am bound by my words and actions to:
- Embrace the principles and spirit of the KDR Gentleman, treating all those I encounter with dignity and respect;
- Work diligently in the pursuit of my education, understanding that I am a student first and that the quest for knowledge is an endeavor which will last a lifetime;
- Meet all of my obligations to the Fraternity in a timely manner, so as to ensure that I am doing my share and that I am not a burden to my brothers;
- Engage in the service of mankind, not for the praise or recognition that such service may bring, but because it is the right thing to do;
- Serve as my brothers' keeper, holding them accountable for their actions as they hold me accountable for mine, and
- Support my Alma Mater, that she may view Kappa Delta Rho as a partner in the development of her students.
I understand that my membership in Kappa Delta Rho is a lifelong privilege that is contingent upon my willingness to incorporate the values of the Fraternity into my daily life and uphold the oath I have sworn. As I speak these words I once again to affirm to my brothers, and all who hear me, that I am a KDR Gentleman and I will place Honor Above All Things.
Honor Super Omnia!
Quill & Scroll[edit]
The National Office of the fraternity publishes a semi-annual news magazine called the Quill & Scroll. First published as The Scroll in 1909 at Middlebury College, the Fraternity changed the name in 1924 after it became a national publication. Today, articles in The Quill and Scroll detail the successes of the National Fraternity, the various alumni corporations, undergraduate chapters and individual members. The articles reflect the high ideals of KDR as experienced by its undergraduates and alumni.[3]
The Pathfinder is the KDR educational and historical manual. It is given to those who choose to pledge the fraternity so that they may understand the responsibilities of membership. It also provides them with an introduction to the way in which KDR is organized, how it operates and what the roles are of the chapter, alumni, and National Office. The manual is updated every few years by the National Office to bring it up to date with new information, policies and ideas.[4]
Awards are given out to Chapters and individual Brothers each year at the National Convention. Chapter awards include: the Robert D. Corrie Award for Chapter of The Year, O.D. Roberts Award for Chapter Improvement, Donald C. Wolfe for Outstanding Newsletter, George E. Kimball Award for Outstanding Social Service, John L. Blakely Award for Outstanding Philanthropics, Leo T. Wolford Award for Outstanding Campus Involvement, Gino A. Ratti Award for Outstanding Alumni Relations, E. Mayer Maloney Award for Outstanding Faculty Relations, Dr. Harold Osborn Award for Outstanding Intramural Sports, & George E. Shaw Award for Outstanding Public Relations.
Individual awards are also handed out including: Outstanding Senior, Outstanding New Member, Outstanding Advisor, & the Red Rose Award. In addition, qualified Alumni may be inducted into the prestigious Ordo Honoris based upon achievements in either their career, community or their dedication to the fraternity.[5]
Kappa Delta Rho is financially supported through undergraduate dues and by the Kappa Delta Rho Foundation, a 501(c)(3) charity. The foundation raises funds from Brothers, family, and friends of KDR to financially support the educational, leadership, and character development programs undertaken by the National Fraternity. The foundation also manages both individual and collective scholarship endowments of the National Fraternity providing more than $75,000 in academic support each year to qualified members of the Fraternity.
The Kappa Delta Rho Foundation provides competitive scholarships based upon academic achievement and applications are submitted online. The foundation also serves as caretaker to several chapter specific scholarships and area of study specific scholarships that can be applied for with the same application. The foundation typically gives away more than $75,000 in scholarships with individual awards typically ranging from a minimum of $500 upwards to $2,200.
In addition to competitive academic scholarships the Foundation also gives away non-competitive New Member academic scholarships. Any Brother who received above a 3.0 on a 4.0 scale during his pledging semester will receive $100 from the foundation providing they submit the proper documentation.
The Kappa Delta Rho Foundations also offer scholarships for the Undergraduate Interfraternity Institute and Futures Quest, both of which are educational programs run by the North-American Interfraternity Conference. The scholarships cover the full cost of registration for each program.
The Elmon Williams Leadership Academy is a multi day leadership program that occurs during each National Convention and is funded in large part by the foundation. The academy allows for all undergraduate Brothers who attend the National Convention to learn more about being an effective leader in their chapter and in the professional world.
In 2007 the KDR Foundation created the Kappa Delta Rho Wilderness Institute which occurs once a year in a different wilderness location around the country. Brothers who have been admitted to the program through an application process take part in a multi day hike that is led by an alumni mentor and experienced guide. The program is designed to provide hands on leadership programming, substance free brotherhood building activities, personal growth opportunities, and core values exploration.

Evidence exists that Syria used chemical weapons, Britain and France tell U.N.
There is evidence that Syria's government forces used chemical weapons in several areas around Homs, Aleppo and even Damascus, British and French diplomats told the U.N. on Friday.
The evidence takes the form of soil samples and eyewitness accounts, the diplomats said to Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, United Press International reported. The diplomats say the evidence is not conclusive, but demands further investigation. And officials in Luxembourg, South Korea and Japan are calling for the United Nations to act, too.
"We are pressing the United Nations to investigate further and raising our concerns with international partners," one unnamed British diplomat said, in a report from the Los Angeles Times.
President Obama has said on prior occasions that the use of chemical weapons in Syria would be a "game changer" that could lead to more Western intervention. So far, outside nations have only supplied rebel forces with non-lethal aid that includes medical supplies and food.

Tornadoes that struck northern Oklahoma damaged some homes, barns and other farm structures and left more than 1,000 customers without power, officials said Tuesday.
Authorities said no deaths or serious injuries were reported as a result of the twisters that struck between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. Monday near Medford in north-central Oklahoma and near Nowata in the state's northeastern corner.
Investigators for the National Weather Service and crews with the Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management were assessing the damage Tuesday.
Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management spokeswoman Keli Cain said two homes near Medford and three others in Craig County, near Nowata, were damaged and many power poles and lines were down.
Oklahoma Gas & Electric reported about 1,300 power outages late Tuesday morning in the Medford area. Public Service Company of Oklahoma reported no outages in its service area that includes Nowata and Craig County.
Rick Smith, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Norman, said "several" tornadoes were reported, although an exact number hadn't yet been determined.
"We'll be looking at the different data and damage information to determine the number and severity," in the Medford area, Smith said.
Investigators from the weather service's Tulsa office will head to Nowata to take a look at the damage there, meteorologist Bart Haaky said.
"We had several reports of tornado touchdowns in the vicinity of Nowata, preliminary reports," Haaky said. "Once they (investigators) establish a damage path they'll have a better idea" of whether it was one or several twisters that touched down.
The meteorologists said that the storms had moved out of the state and, except for a slight chance for thunderstorms in western Oklahoma, dry and windy conditions are forecast for Tuesday.
"We're looking at drying out from that point on, probably through the end of the week at least," Haaky said.

TEHRAN, Iran - March 12, 2012 (WPVI) -- Iranian authorities canceled a ceremony Monday in honor of the country's Oscar-winning director even though the government had hailed his win as a triumph over a competitor from Israel.
The event for Asghar Farhadi, whose movie, "A Separation," won the Oscar for best foreign film last month, was abruptly scrapped after authorities denied permission, according to the semiofficial Ilna news agency.
There were no details as to why a permit was denied but some Iranian conservatives were upset with the film's themes: domestic turmoil, gender inequality and the desire by many to leave the country.
Ilna said two cinema groups, the Center for Directors of Iranian Cinema and the High Council of Producers of Iranian Cinema, issued a statement decrying the cancellation. All public events in Iran need government approval.
"We indented to have a simple and friendly meeting to say 'thank you' for the great achievement you brought Iran and Iranian cinema but the cultural custodians did not let us realize this," said the statement, addressing Farhadi.
"We deeply regret this," the statement added. There was no immediate reaction from Farhadi.
Iran had welcomed Farhadi's Oscar as the movie beat an Israeli film and three others in the foreign language category, describing it as a conquest for Iranian culture and a blow for Israel's perceived outsized influence in America.
But Iranian hard-liners were also upset by the movie's exposure of the troubles in Iranian society through the story of a collapsing marriage.
Authorities have long had an uneasy relationship with the country's filmmakers and influential clerics have often denounced the domestic cinema as dominated by Western-tainted liberals and political dissenters. Some directors and actors have faced arrest or fled the country.
In January, authorities ordered the closure of the House of Cinema, an independent film group that had operated for 20 years and counted Iran's top filmmakers, including Farhadi, among its members.
Last year, film director Jafar Panahi, who won awards at Cannes, Venice and other major film festivals, was sentenced to a six-year house arrest and a 20-year ban on filming after being convicted of "making propaganda" against Iran's ruling system.

Market guide | Zillow predicts West Los Angeles home values will rise 5.6% next year, compared to a 6.8% rise for Los Angeles as a whole. Among West Los Angeles homes, this home is valued 47% more than the midpoint (median) home, but is valued 13% less per square foot. Foreclosures will be a factor impacting home values in the next several years. In the West Los Angeles market, the number of foreclosures waiting to be sold dropped 9.3% in the last year. The number of unsold foreclosures is 95% less than in Los Angeles, and 96.4% less than the national average.

Speaking of Cuban Communism: There have been "Che sightings" lately. That was the phrase of one of my e-mailers: "Che sighting." There are always such sightings, I'm afraid: Ernesto "Che" Guevara, that old Communist killer, that old totalitarian butcher, is one of the most "sighted" people in the world — defacing a billion, two billion, three billion T-shirts.
Richard Branson, the British entrepreneur, was dressed up like Guevara recently. (See this.) I think he was promoting cellphones or something. If Guevara were around, and Sir Richard were under his control? Guevara would crush him like a bug. He did not like entrepreneurs, or "Sirs."
Then there is a report from Brazil. A soccer team put Guevara's face on its jersey. The jersey is a huge hit with fans, who want one of their own. The factory is unable to keep up with demand. Isn't that sweet?
If only Lavrenti Beria or Heinrich Himmler had taken a better picture. If only their cheekbones were so lovely.
Let's break away with a little language: In recent days, I have had occasion to write about Fiorello La Guardia, one of New York's legendary mayors. To my knowledge, he spelled his name like that: "La Guardia," with a space. But the airport? "LaGuardia."
I always have to pause, before writing the name of the mayor or the name of the airport that honors him.
Care for a name? (Another name, I should say.) I was reviewing a Tosca the other night — and in the cast was a baritone named Ryan Speedo Green.
Wonder if he swims.
On the subject of music: For my "New York Chronicle" in the current New Criterion, go here. For a review on TNC's website, go here. That one is of a New York Philharmonic concert, conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen. Among the composers on the program was Salonen himself.
This is kind of interesting: My friend and fellow critic Sedgwick Clark wrote about variability in conducting, and other music-making. Sometimes a guy's up, sometimes he's down; some nights he's on, some nights he's off. If a conductor gives four concerts of the same program, those four experiences may be very, very different.
I think Salonen gave five concerts of the aforementioned program. Sedge heard the last concert, and I and other critics heard earlier ones. He had a much different experience from the ones we had. I had no trouble believing it.
I quoted to him an old song that I often have cause to quote: "What a difference a day makes, 24 little hours . . ."
An old golf buddy used to sing that, when he was having a bad round — a bad round that followed a good one. "But I was hitting it so well yesterday!" he'd cry. "What the . . .?" Then he'd sing, wistfully, annoyedly, mystifiedly, "What a difference a day makes . . ."
Of course, the song works both ways: You can hit it well, after hitting it poorly — right?
One more item from The New Criterion's website — a post I did on double standards in the media. Some themes are oldies but goodies. In any event, they're old . . .
In an obit of Gérard de Villiers, the French spy novelist, I found something hilarious. The obituarist said that he had "struggles with fidelity." I just love that. "Mr. Smith, a liar, had struggles with honesty." "Mr. Jones, a burglar, had trouble staying out of other people's houses and keeping his hands on his own property."
A few years ago, it was announced that Tiger Woods was struggling with "sex addiction." Some of us said, "Oh, you mean he's a man?"
Let's end with a letter from a reader — who writes,
Hi, Jay,
I've seen a couple of bumper stickers that say "Ready for Hillary." I always think of such phrases as meaning that one is ready for a change. "Ready for spring" means that you're tired of winter.
I know that these people don't mean they're tired of Obama, but it makes me chuckle nonetheless.
Hadn't thought of that! That sticker probably means, in part, "Horrible, racist America has had a black president. Maybe horrible, sexist America can tolerate a female president." Or it may mean, "I've waited for this glorious Progressive Woman to be president for so long! Don't make me wait any longer, please!"
Anyway, we can worry about her later. See you!

I was pretty careful with my wallet walking through the SXSW crowd last night. My fault for going downtown to dinner, but I still didn't feel particularly safe about it.

This was in Hong Kong IIRC, at the Spaghetti House in the airport.
Just cross your fingers and wait a few more years?
WoW gold also has value, can be sold (someone is willing to pay for it), etc. However Blizzard could stop renewing subscriptions and then shut off the servers, and people with gold balances would have no legal recourse, even in the U.S. where assets are more loosely defined the way you think they should be. The same would be true, for example, for Magic: The Gathering online cards and currency, which could be easily shut off in bankruptcy without legal resource to card or currency holders.
In Japan, law related to assets is a little more strict, and digital currency not backed by a world government simply doesn't count under any circumstances, whether you agreed to its value via EULA or not.
Encrypting your phone does nothing because you decrypt it every time you power it on, and you always have your phone on, don't you?
But the first thing any thief will do is turn it off by pulling the battery, so it can't be located. When they next power it on, that encryption might help.

A USD is a representation of a monetary asset; as of right now a Bitcoin is regarded more as a fixed asset, such as a stock certificate. It's not cash and isn't treated the same way.
It lacks the last mile connection to anywhere outside of downtown, or reasonably-timed connections to take more than one bus anywhere. And I say that living a few hundred feet from the 3 route.
After living here for a decade, it started hitting me a few years back. Tends to knock me out for a full week in January each year.
We certainly avoided the steamy season, if that's the alternative. But I didn't pick the travel dates regardless.
It's still momentarily strange to see a sign that points out an extra pancake on your stack is a $20 surcharge. The part of my brain that processes conversions is apparently a bit slower than the part that reads signs.
We stayed at the GoodView Hotel in Tangxia. With a good corporate rate it was just $117 a night including buffet breakfast, and is a resort including indoor pools and spa, outdoor activities, weak drinks, and secured property you can walk around on safely. It's far enough away from industry that the air was usually decent at ground level, though there was still no sky. The first sun I saw in a week was in the hotel shuttle this morning just after we crossed the bridge into Hong Kong.
I was in Shenzhen yesterday, and a few other sites in Guangdong for the week before that. The continual gray haze gets to after a few days, beats you down, and holds you there. I have a residual cough. I took a chance to go on the company dime, but don't ever consider it a place for a holiday.

Then they'll lose more customers to Facebook messaging instead of email, and they'll make less money.
Google sees the number of people using email dropping, and place at least some of the blame on unwanted (perhaps unsolicited, perhaps not) email cluttering their users' inboxes. People are replacing email with Facebook and Twitter though, both products that Google doesn't own and can't as easily mine for profit, so it's in Google's interest to help you only receive the mail you want to receive.
I'm not doubting or denying your point that you and I aren't Google's customers, but at the same time I think what's in Google's best interests (keeping our gmail inboxes spam-free so we'll continue to use gmail) and our interests (keeping our gmail inboxes spam-free so we'll continue to use our gmail) are the same.

No condemnation of Pak for brutal killing of Indian soldiers, US wants tensions to de-escalate

Concerned over the rise in tension between India and Pakistan over the brutal killing of two Indian soldiers, the US said it has been counselling both governments to de-escalate the situation and has instructed its envoys there to work in this direction.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton "talked to our South Asia people" about it on Tuesday and yesterday, State Department spokesperson Victoria Nuland told reporters. "She has instructed our Ambassadors to work with those governments, which they are doing."
"There were calls made at the ambassadorial level in both countries," Nuland said, as she urged for calm between the two countries.
"We are concerned about reports of violence along the Line of Control in Kashmir. It's our understanding that the governments of India and Pakistan are now talking and trying to work through these issues at a high level," Nuland said.
The United States is urging both sides to take steps to end the violence, she said.
"We continue to strongly support any efforts to improve relations between the two countries. We've also discussed these latest incidents with both governments, urged them to talk to each other and urged calm," she said.
The US is counseling both countries to work to de-escalate tension, Nuland said.
"We have been counseling both governments to de-escalate, to work through this issue, to continue the consultations between them at a high level that we understand are ongoing now. Violence is not the answer for either country," she said.
Responding to a question, Nuland said that the US favours that the two countries should talk to each other to resolve their issues.
"Our view is that India and Pakistan have made pretty good progress in recent years, in working through a number of difficult issues, including opening of the trade relations, etc, that they are now engaged at a high level on these recent incidents," Nuland said.

Venue Help!
- Posted 3 weeks ago by jennwed
- last comment
Hi! This is my first post on this site (or any site outside of Facebook, for that matter). I recently got engaged and we are now in the process of finding an appropriate venue to fit out tastes. We are very easy going people, and would be perfectly happy getting married with our toes in the sand. We are very casual people. Ideally we would get married on the sand with the groom and groomsmen in khaki linen pants. Tuxedos and suits aren't really our style.
Only problem in socal, is that beaches and permits for weddings on the beach need to be submitted almost a year in advance. So, while getting married on the beach is still an option, we are now opening our minds to alternative ideas.
We are expecting between 120-150 ppl. We would love to have at least beer/wine with the potential of a hosted bar (limited time). I am not opposed to hors d'euvres and cocktails after the ceremony instead of the usual sit down dinner. But, I am also willing to do the sit-down thing as well. =)
Looking to keep our costs around $10K. I am more than willing to DIY some/most aspects of the event.
But most importantly, I need a venue! Looking in the Orange County area, preferably beach/coastal, but not dead set on that. I would say our location ranges from Santa Barbara to San Diego.
Any helpful hints, suggestions, wedding venues, etc would be greatly appreciated! thanks so much and God bless!
If you are open to San Diego and your FI is in the military (or knows someone who is willing to sponsor you) look into the Admiral Kidd Club, Breakers Beach, or Club Coronado. each place is military property but if you have military sponsor, you can get married there as a civilian. They're catering was affordable, the service fee was 5% less than any other place I looked at, and we didn't have to pay sales tax because it was the government so that saved a ton of money. Look at http://www.sdgb.com for pictures if you're interested.
@MrsPaulsBabyBallerina: Thanks so much! We haven't considered San Diego yet, but now it's open for discussion! I'll start researching now. Thanks again

Sure, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow was always meant to be a Castlevania game, but that's only part of the story. Last night, David Cox, producer of the game at Mercury Steam, revealed to us that his studio's title was originally pitched to Konami as a 3D remake of the very first game in the franchise.
"The original concept was to remake the original, classic 8-bit game in 3D," Cox said. "That was our original pitch, funny enough -- with Simon Belmont and everything."
While the nostalgic NES gamer in us would probably have swooned over such a project, we're actually kind of glad this one became Lords of Shadow. It is looking really good, after all.

Assembly Panel to Move Job Creation & Economic Development Bills During Tuesday Hearing
(TRENTON) - The Assembly Budget Committee will meet Tuesday to move several job creation and economic development bills as part of the Assembly Democratic effort to reinvigorate New Jersey's lagging economy. Assembly Democratic leadership announced the jobs focus earlier this week.
The Assembly's Dec. 17 voting session will be devoted to moving numerous job creation measures.
"Recovering from Sandy must include a vigorous job creation and economic development initiative," said Assembly Budget Chairman Vincent Prieto (D-Hudson/Bergen). "The two must go together. Our lagging economy and high unemployment was a concern before the storm, and it remains so now, so let's get this done for the good of everyone in New Jersey..."
