"Catholic Schools Raise the Standards" is the theme for National Catholic Schools Week 2013. This year it runs Sunday through Feb. 2.
The 2013 theme supports the recent launch of the National Standards and Benchmarks for Effective Catholic Elementary and Secondary Schools. They are designed to ensure the effective operation and responsible governance of Catholic schools nationwide, promoting high academic standards and Catholic identity.
Schools of the Archdiocese of Omaha, the Dioceses of Lincoln and Grand Island, and the Dioceses of Des Moines and Sioux City will join the week of celebration and recognition.
One annual event in Omaha is a Mass at St. Cecilia Cathedral for eighth-graders from metro-area Catholic schools. A representative from each school will carry a banner designed to represent the school and the week's theme.
The 10 a.m. Thursday Mass will be celebrated by Archbishop George J. Lucas and the schools' pastors.
To close out the week, Music in Catholic Schools will hold a benefit dance, silent auction and dessert sale from 7:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Feb. 1 at St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic Church Parish Center, 11802 Pacific St., with music by the Swingtones.
Free swing dance instruction will be given from 6:15 p.m. to 7:15 p.m.
Tickets, $15 per person, are available at the door or in advance at the Music in Catholic Schools Office, 3212 N. 60th St.; Dietze Music, 13015 West Center Road in Omaha and 20th Street and Cornhusker Road in Bellevue; and at Schmitt Music, 7355 Dodge St.
Proceeds will enable students with financial need to participate in band at their school.

The Cubs are 20 games under .500, and it's July 18.
The last time a Cubs team was at least 20 games under .500 on July 18 was in 1966. Entering the games of July 18, 1966, the Cubs were, in fact, thirty games under .500 at 29-59 -- and that was after a win over the Cardinals. It got worse: on July 31, 1966, which is the last date on which a Cubs team was at least 20 under on any date in July, they lost to the Mets, making them 32-71. That's a .311 winning percentage; had they kept up that pace in 1966, they'd have finished 50-112. They wound up playing a little better over the season's last two months, going 27-32 to finish a club-record-tying 59-103. (And they had to lose that year's last four games to tie that record.)
(Note: the 1981 team spent much of the season pre-strike 20+ games under .500. They reached it at 8-28 on May 24 and never again got better than 20 games under. I'm leaving that club out of this discussion because... it didn't play in July, and in the post-strike half-season played near-.500 ball.
As noted on the right sidebar, this year's team will have to go 21-45 just to equal that 59-103 record. That's a .318 pace.
Don't say it can't be done, because it has been, although the only Cubs team since 1966 to play that badly over that long a period of time was the 1999 bunch, who went 19-42 from August 1 until the end of the season. The winning percentage of that record? .311.
With that cheery thought, on to tonight's matchup.
Cubs lineup:
Fukudome RF, Castro SS, Ramirez 3B, Peña 1B, Byrd CF, Soriano LF, Hill C, Barney 2B, Lopez P
Phillies lineup:
Rollins ss, Martinez 3b, Utley 2b, Howard 1b, Ibanez lf, Ruiz c, Brown rf, Mayberry cf, Halladay p
Today's Starting Pitchers | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Rodrigo Lopez pitched twice against the Phillies in 2010. You really don't want to know what he did against them; if you insist, highlight the blank space here (I put it in white text so anyone who doesn't want to look doesn't have to): two starts, 8.18 ERA, five walks in eleven IP. Anyway, current Phillies are hitting .337 (30-for-89) against RoLo, with six doubles and two home runs. Clearly, we are doomed.
Roy Halladay -- who Cubs teams had actually hit fairly well in three starts from 2005-2010 -- gave them just six harmless hits and struck out nine on June 10 in Philadelphia. That game was only close because Jose Contreras had an awful inning. I wouldn't expect much more off Halladay tonight.
Today's game is on WCIU, which means a lot of you won't be able to watch it. Perhaps you're happy about that. It's also on CSN Philadelphia. Here is the complete MLB.com Mediacenter for today.

Today's first pitch thread will be up at 7:05 p.m. CDT and the overflow threads will post at 8 pm, 9 pm and 9:45 pm CDT. If you need more overflows due to extra innings or rain delays, post them in the fanshot section.

Trnovo is one of the nine municipalities of the Sarajevo Canton. It is located a 30 kilometers southeast of the city of Sarajevo. The seat of the municipality is in Trnovo, although the municipal council uses the "Maršal" Hotel on Mount Bjelašnica as the official meeting hall. As the pre-war municipality (also called Trnovo) was divided by the 1995 Dayton Accords, the actual town of Trnovo is divided between Federation BiH and Serb Republic.
According to data from the municipality, it is the least populous municipality in the canton, with a population of 1,747. It is also the least densely populated of the nine Municipalities, and has the highest percentage of people over 65 years of age.
Ethnically, 95.4% are Bosniaks and 4.6% are Serbs and this accounts for the entire population.
The mountain of Bjelašnica is located within the municipality, offering possibilities for tourism development. However, until there is sufficient infrastructure for tourism development, agriculture remains the main branch of the economy. The stunning Rakitnica canyon is also located within Trnovo municipality.

The hotel was clean, in a good location, and had a friendly staff.
The vending machine being out of water would be my complaint if I had to choose.
The hotel was nice and affordable; it doesn't have all the amenities found at others, but for the price and location, it's a good deal-especially when you are just using it as a place to sleep after a night out in N.O.

Bad service.
The room was supposed to be a king non-smoking. When we arrived it was 2 double beds and a smoking room. When we asked for the desk help, they said that there was no other rooms available and thats it. Horrible experience.

Get the digital magazine on your device!
FREE TRIAL – Limited time only
Today's internet is based on networking technology originally developed in the 1970s by Vint Cerf and Robert Kahn, following the success of the ARPANET in the 1960s. With his hand still firmly on the metaphorical steering wheel of the internet, there is nobody better suited than Cerf to comment on the direction the digital juggernaut is heading -- and that direction is straight up, into the skies.
"In the course of the last 14 years or so we have developed technology to enable the extension of the internet across the solar system," explained Cerf, speaking of his work with Nasa's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. "The purpose is not to listen to Martians; it's to support manned and robotic space exploration. What has become very interesting is that not only have we created the protocols for this, we've implemented them -- they're on the Space Station, they're on spacecraft that's going to land on Mars later this year.
"I want all of these scientific spacecraft to become nodes for an interplanetary network." Continue reading
Apple announced its new iPad this evening -- the iPad 3, technically -- and I've been playing around with it for a while to see how it stacks up.
The first thing you notice when holding the new iPad is, as you might imagine, the high-res display. It's arguably the biggest improvement over the iPad 2 (which remains on sale at a lower price) and it's immediately noticeable how sharp the screen is. If you've seen the iPhone 4S's screen, imagine it was 10-inches across -- that's basically what the new iPad's display looks like.
It runs at an enormous resolution of 2048x1536-pixels. That's higher than a 60-inch high-def plasma telly, higher than Blu-ray movies and higher than the top-spec MacBook Pro, even. Yet it's crammed into a screen 9.7-inches across (diagonally), meaning the pixels are smaller, packed more tightly together and that means everything looks sharper and more highly defined. It's immediately noticeable, and compared to the iPad 2 it's leaps apart.
The question is, does it matter? Is there really a benefit? Continue reading
Last October, Wired 2011 housed two days of brain-expanding talks and presentations. This year it shall return -- as Wired 2012. See what we did there?
Wired 2012 will be held on 25 and 26 October at The Brewery in London. Speakers will be announced in due course, but as any attendees or readers of Wired.co.uk know from last year, we're pretty good at getting some of the most exciting thought-leaders and influencers to take to our stage.

If you've ever entertained the idea of having Wired come to your office to explain, entice and enlighten, then we have good news: Wired is launching a bespoke consultancy service.
Wired Consulting is a business consultancy programme built on the idea of piping expertise on a range of topics into your company's hive mind -- but in a way that's as informative as it is accessible. Continue reading
After over a year of online broadcasting and cracking the top of the technology charts, it's time to let you, the listener, have your voice on the Wired.co.uk Podcast.
We always invite your feedback on the news and stories we discuss each week, and just like on Wired.co.uk itself, you're great at having your say. But we thought, "Wouldn't it be great if you could have your say before we even talk about a topic, so we can include listener opinion alongside our own when we record?"
As of this week, that's exactly what we're doing. We now have a UK voicemail box you can call from landlines, mobiles or Skype to leave us messages to potentially be played on the show. Comments can be on any news topic from a previous show, or any general opinion about the show itself, but what we're really seeking is comments for stories on forthcoming podcasts. Continue reading

We sat by ourselves, still looking for company;
there could have been peace, but that eluded me--
all I could think of was what was on your mind.
You tried to be kind,
but I blocked your feelings.
Now, senses still reeling, you sit in your quiet room
and cry.
You tried to make me one,
but I always hide when there's a glimpse of sun.
Running along in sunlight meadows
your eyes were never more than half-closed:
through fluttering lashes, you watched me watching you.
I tried to be true
to the way that you thought I ought to be
but, in spite of all my efforts,
I failed.
I tried to make you see
but your eyes were blind to all but the bad in me.
What do you think I mean
when I say that I need you?
How am I supposed to seem
when we hit another problem and the answers
are all torn from my book?
Our lives are on paths we just can't control;
we can grow closer as we get old....
Can you imagine us as we adjust?
Can you imagine us
getting near eighty;
we live more sedately, still hoping the dream will
come true?
We'll try to be secure....
But I'm of uncertain mind
and how can I be sure?
how can I be sure?
how can I be sure?

The Joys Of Letting Go
By Amy Goldwasser
Oprah.com | From the Winter 2007 issue of
O, The Oprah Magazine
Angela and Joel Solomon are the rare New Yorkers who talk with great cheer about moving from a "humongous and exquisite" 4,000-square-foot Upper West Side apartment—the kind with a grand central hall and formal dining room—to their current home, a modern and minimal West Village two-bedroom that's about a quarter the size of their previous place. Defying every rule of human nature and real-estate attachment, the couple even let go of the andirons with the fireplace. "It liberated us to do this," says Joel, 70, a man who, as a psychiatrist specializing in addiction issues (and a medical advisor to the Major League Baseball Players Association), knows the pull of habit.
After 30 years of seeing patients in the uptown apartment, Joel decided to move his practice to a friend's clinic. That decision prompted him and Angela, for the first time in decades, to consider the prospect of moving downtown—and downsizing. "We were ready to go back to where we began."
See the Solomon's downsized décor.

Snowville Creamery - Pomeroy, Ohio
Snowville Creamery
in Pomeroy, Ohio, the cows graze in pasture all year long and the grasses that are in season affect the flavor of the milk. Winter milk from Snowville may taste of hay; spring milk of dandelions. Morning milk even tastes different from evening milk! Warren Taylor, owner of Snowville, believes that milk is perfect when it comes from the cow, so he processes his milk as minimally as possible. Snowville Creamery milk is bottled on the farm the same day the cows are milked and delivered to Whole Foods Market the very next day to bring customers the freshest product possible. As they say at Snowville, they make "Milk the Way it Used to Be!"

myPatterns is a lightweight library implementing pattern matching of arbitrary data structures (not just strings) in concrete syntax notations. Default notations such as JSON are pre-defined, but users can override them with new, customized notations for their data. myPatterns is available for C and JavaScript developers, and has already been integrated with querying tools such as JSLINQ and JSONQuery.
libjson is a JSON parser and printer that is fully compliant with the JSON spec. The parser is efficient and interruptible with a simple and flexible API. It also optionally supports extensions like C-style comments or Python/YAML style comments, and for security allows the user to set a limit on the number of nested structures and the parse buffer. The library plugs easily into any model since it doesn't include any object model, and plugs easily in any project's memory management since the memory functions can be redefined.
A content management system built on top of the Symfony2 and Twitter-Bootstrap frameworks.

MARKHAM/VAUGHAN - A triple homicide in Markham and an anti-Semitic hate crime in Vaughan, both of which occurred in 2004, have had existing monetary rewards for information leading to arrests doubled in an effort to solve these crimes.
[B]The York Regional Police Services Board has doubled the reward for the execution-style murders of Zhu Xia Lin, 41, of Markham; Yan Jun Liu, 35, of Scarborough; and Walter Xian Chen Zhang, 40, of North York to $200,000.[/B]
The reward for the hate crime has been doubled to $40,000.
Both rewards are in effect until January 31st, 2013, and will not be renewed.
"We felt very strongly that these cases needed a spark of interest to hopefully generate information to help York Regional Police solve them," said Police Services Board Chair Frank Scarpitti.
"We are making a big push here to find the people responsible," said board member and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Regional Municipality of York Bill Fisch.
Fisch also added, "It's time to make a statement. If someone has information and can assist us, they will reap an incredible reward."
[B]The triple homicide took place on Sunday, February 8th, 2004, around 12:50 am at the Mirage Spa, a licensed body rub parlour located at 7170 Warden Avenue[/B]. All the victims were present inside the parlor when killed. Zhu Xia Lin was the owner and Yan Jun Liu was her employee. Walter Zhang was a friend of the two women.
They were bound and taken from the massage parlour into Zhang's 1999 red Ford Explorer, and driven to the rear of Victoria Square United Church on Woodbine Avenue at Elgin Mills Road. Their bodies were discovered later that evening. Autopsies revealed that all three died as a result of gunshot wounds.
Anyone with information leading to the arrest and conviction of the persons responsible is asked to contact the Homicide Unit at 1-866-876-5423, ext. 7865, or by e-mail at homicide(at)yrp.ca. If required, interpreters will be provided.

Media Error of TSM during backup
Dear All
During backup schedule running, the read write error occurs and then the tape has been marked as bad tape.
But something interesting.
Bad tape list
Day1 A B C
Day2 D C E
Day3 E H G
The list of bad tape changed everyday.
And after audit library command, the mark of bad tape disappeared(but these tapes are still in library).
Appears again after backup ran.
It seems not like tapes' problem.
Dose anyone met the problem before?
Best Regards

Does the error only occur in one specific tape drive?

Well so far i have not put my 2013 Gibson SG standard with mini-Etune down.It has the best set up on a guitar I have ever played. Lightweight,fast action comfortable to play and the mini-Etune system is a real benefit to fast tuning and fast selective tuning especially for people like myself with a disability.
This guitar is a must to try and buy and is set up with a whole lot of packaged benefits.
I am really pleased with Reidys' price and online service when choosing this musical instrument and the guy on the phone was really nice and genuinely pleased for me and my new purchase.
Thankyou Reidys' for the well packaged and secure shipping of my guitar.
My experience has been smooth and the guitar will be treasured.
Cheers Rob.

My first vintage pattern! It's a 1972 McCalls pattern for high-neck shirt, vest, and pants. I made the vest and pants for my son.
The fabric is yellow corduroy and the lining is dark purple polyester fabric. It turned out that I didn't really like the lining fabric, it moved a lot and doesn't stay in shape. Next time I will be using cotton or silk for the lining.
I didn't make many changes to the pattern, only adding a pair of slanted pockets to the pants and shortening the legs a bit.
My son was really excited when he saw the vest and pants. He said that they looked like fighting costume set. Huh? Yeah… umm, I guess they kinda looked like Dragon Ball's clothes (-_-;). He's a big fan of Dragon Ball, and can spend hours reading the manga, that was why he was really happy with the vest and pants.
Anyway, the most important thing is that he likes them (^_^).

Elaine Herald, manager at St. Theresa of the Infant Jesus Parish in New Cumberland, near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, welcomed the speculation about a progressive pope, perhaps a black person.
''We're kind of excited at the (prospect) of a pope that our Catholics seem to be screaming for,'' Herald said.
Others praised Benedict precisely for his defense of traditional values.
''He has always been a defender of the faith against women in the clergy, against Planned Parenthood, against abortion. He's been a defender of the faith against heresies in the church,'' said Eric Husseini, a member of the conservative Catholic movement Opus Dei, after attending morning Mass at St. Mary Catholic Church in Hagerstown, Md.
Many Catholics, however, said they admired Benedict for his bravery and modesty in deciding to step aside.
The resignation was an act of deference to the greater good by a man ''demonstrating his humanity,'' said Father Luis Rivero, Archdiocesan director of campus ministry for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Miami.
''There are times that only we know that we have to let go. And sometimes people may see that as a failure, but it's honorable when someone reaches their point they have to let go because they can't do this effectively anymore.''

Belittling Lil Wayne: Rappers Who've Dissed Weezy
This is rap beef on a new level. After Lil Wayne made derogatory comments about the Miami Heat at a Houston concert, the state's Senator Marco Rubio, of all people, spoke up. Responding to Lil Wayne's comments that he's the "new Pac," the Republican said, "Tupac lived in a different time. These guys have some message in what they're saying, but I think they're largely entertainers." Slight shade, yes, but Rubio's comments are nothing compared to all the rappers that have been dissing Wayne over the years. Click on to see what we mean.

NBA Trade Rumors: Amar'e Stoudemire and 5 Other NBA Players Who Won't Be Traded
By Sam Cooper ,
Each year as we are a couple months into the NBA season, GMs start evaluating their team's situation and start considering trades.
Some teams may have gotten off to an unexpected great start and wish to get one more piece that could propel them to a championship.
Other teams scramble for solutions to a shaky start that could bring them back to relevance.
Some teams may be throwing up the white flag and looking to rebuild.
But each year, many rumors prove to be invalid and more rumored players than not stay with their original teams. This could happen for a number of reasons.
In some cases, the media are the ones who start rumors that are later denied by coaches and players.
Sometimes a player may be undervalued and a team cannot find a trade worthwhile.
Other times a player starts performing at just the right time.
Whatever the reason may be, many players find themselves on the trading block each year without having to actually pack their bags and switch teams. This year will be no different.
Here are six NBA players on the trading block that won't be moved by the deadline.
It was learned yesterday that the Raptors are officially open to trading starting point guard Jose Calderon.
Although it may be smart in theory, there are a couple problems to finding a suitor for Calderon.
First is the challenge that his contract presents. Calderon is set to make $11 million next year, which is a large salary for a point guard that only gets 10 points and eight assists a game.
It may be difficult for the Raptors to find a suitor that is willing to eat his large contract, but it depends on how desperate teams are for point guards at the deadline.
Cheaper options such as Ramon Sessions and Devin Harris are on the block too and may be looked into before Calderon.
The second issue goes with the potential suitors for Calderon. Toronto has stated that it wants a point guard back who could replace Calderon, as well as rebuilding pieces for the future.
If you look at the Lakers and Knicks, who are both potential suitors, you see how that is a big problem. Those two teams would not be begging for a point guard if they had one in the first place.
The Lakers do not have rebuilding pieces and the Knicks have no picks in the upcoming draft and their only rebuilding pieces that could be offered would be Fields and Shumpert.
The Knicks don't have cap room to take on Calderon's contract and they would most likely not part ways with both Fields and Shumpert.
He is a name to watch, but Calderon should stay with Toronto for the entire year.
Chris Kaman reportedly has generated some interest from numerous teams, but he will be sitting on the bench for the Hornets for the duration of the year.
New Orleans has reportedly fielded interest from the Houston Rockets, San Antonio Spurs and Golden State Warriors so far, as well as two other unknown teams.
Kaman's situation is very similar to that of Jose Calderon, in that he has a huge salary that a team will have to eat but the Hornets expect expiring contracts, young players and picks in return. That could be a problem.
The Spurs and Rockets don't have any expiring contracts and are reluctant to offer up young players.
The Warriors have shown a little more interest, but they only have one expiring contract in injured center Kwame Brown who they can't trade until March 15th anyway.
The Warriors only have second-round picks to offer the Hornets and although they have young talent, it may be hard for the two teams to orchestrate a trade.
As much as New Orleans wants Kaman off their hands, he most likely won't go anyway unless they are willing to settle for a very bad return.
I'd expect to see Kaman sitting on the bench in a Hornets uniform for the rest of the season.
O.J Mayo's name has been on the trading block both last year and now this season, but he is starting to show his value to the Grizzlies. He is now off the block currently.
Mayo has been in a few potential deals already this season.
Back in December, Mayo was almost shipped to Indiana to be their new shooting guard in a trade that would have sent Josh McRoberts to Memphis, but the trade fell through.
More recently, the Grizzlies were in trade negotiations with the Nets, however talks died down after the Nets didn't come up with the right offer.
The Grizzlies may continue to shop Mayo, but unless a great offer comes up, they will not trade him.
Mayo is the team's sixth man right now and is proving his value to the team.
In 25 minutes per game, he puts up 11.6 points, 3.1 rebounds and a steal. He is fifth on the team in minutes a game and leads the team in three-pointers made and in three-point percentage.
Mayo is an integral part of the Grizzlies bench, and an offer of Josh McRoberts won't cut it.
Despite the fact that Memphis needs big men, they recognize that Mayo is a valuable player and will not make a trade unless they are absolutely blown away by an offer.
Is the Suns' front office stupid for keeping Nash and refusing to rebuild? In some ways yes, but you have to look at it from their point of view.
As much as Nash should be traded, the Suns can't get any great offers from contending teams and therefore should just keep Nash.
Let's look at some of the potential suitors for Nash that were discussed last year and assess their current situation:
New York Knicks
The Knicks would have the same exact problem trading for Nash as they would for Calderon.
They have no expiring contracts, no picks and don't have many young rebuilding pieces besides Shumpert and Fields.
The only reason the Knicks were brought up is because they were considered possible contenders, but considering the fact that they have a worse record than the Suns, a deal is unlikely.
This scenario is more interesting.
The Magic do have the pieces and picks to complete a trade, but Dwight Howard is getting the way.
By crying himself out of town and constantly calling out his teammates, Howard us making it clear that he doesn't want to play in Orlando. Steve Nash doesn't have time to wait for the Magic to rebuild.
Los Angeles Lakers
As much as the Lakers might want Nash, they really have nothing to offer Phoenix.
Bad contracts like Walton and World Peace aren't expiring contracts, and they have no good picks or young talent to offer.
They are in the same position as the Lakers.
They don't have much to offer in terms of young talent besides Norris Cole, and they won't have good draft picks.
James and Wade are used to taking up the ball themselves rather than playing with a good point guard and might not be as effective without the ball in their hands.
Perhaps other teams will generate some interest, but unless the Suns get an amazing offer, they aren't going to trade Nash.
They are perfectly happy letting him retire in Phoenix, even if that means being completely unprepared when he does call it quits.
The Celtics are in a difficult situation right now with their Big Three of Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce.
Do they trade their core and start rebuilding or do they try to win another championship before their window completely closes?
The answer is that they will not trade their Big Three, not yet.
They are currently riding a four-game winning streak that has brought them back to the seventh seed in the East and the season is still young.
Rondo is injured but is hoping to make a return sometime around the All-Star break and the Celtics can not afford to lose Pierce, their clutch leader who has played in Boston his entire career.
There have been reports saying that the Lakers are interested in Pierce, but it is unlikely a trade would ever go through serious negotiation because the Lakers already have a lot of money going to Gasol, Kobe and Bynum.
Ray Allen is a great three-point shooter and Rondo is one of the best passers in the NBA, but without Pierce, they would be lost.
Rondo wouldn't rack up the assists and without Pierce, the defense would focus on contesting Allen's open threes.
Pierce is just too important to the team to be traded.
Over the past couple days, a CSN Philly report has surfaced saying that the 76ers have expressed interest in Amar'e Stoudemire, hoping to add a missing piece that could propel them to a championship. The Philadelphia Inquirer denied the report though.
It would be extremely heartbreaking to see the Knicks pull the trigger on an offer and trade Amar'e as he is the savior of this Knicks team.
He is the one who first signed with the team and together with a young core made the Knicks relevant again.
However, a catastrophic Carmelo Anthony trade tampered with the Knicks' offensive style and chemistry, and one year later, the Knicks find themselves struggling to score.
Amar'e Stoudemire is having his worst year since his rookie season, struggling to score, block shots, rebound and shoot.
If the Knicks try and trade Amar'e Stoudemire, they would really be throwing up a white flag.
But the Knicks won't trade Stoudemire this year.
Although the 76ers have a plethora of young talent, it is probably safe to assume that Elton Brand will have to be included in a deal. Because let's face it, Jared Jeffries at power forward is worse than Ronny Turiaf manning center last year.
However, Brand's contract is so huge that it wouldn't present the Knicks with many opportunities to build a good trade.
Jrue Holiday fits in the price range, but are the 76ers really willing to give up their young future point guard for Stoudemire?
Would they be willing to part ways with Brand, Holiday and possibly another young player like Vucevic and picks? Probably not.
Really, it is too early for the Knicks to trade Amar'e.
They still have Baron Davis coming back and we'll see how well the ball moves then.
If the Knicks were smart, they would see that the problem lies with Carmelo Anthony and the constant isolation plays set up for him, but maybe after returning from an injury he will start shooting more effectively.
The Knicks cannot expect to fix this by trading Stoudemire, though. They are simply shopping him to see if a good offer comes up, but the Knicks haven't given up on this team yet.

Warren Buffett's company is considering trading its 1.7 million shares of Graham Holdings for sole ownership of part of the company that was created when the Graham family sold the Washington Post.
Berkshire Hathaway disclosed the deal talks Wednesday in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Graham Holdings confirmed the talks in a statement.
The filing didn't identify what part of Graham Holdings Berkshire might be interested in buying.
With four years remaining, Warren Buffett has a commanding lead in a decade-long bet that put a low-fee stock index fund up against a portfolio of high-priced hedge funds.
Buffett put his money behind his long-held argument that "experts" don't do better than the stock market as a whole. It's the basis of his argument that the fees "helpers" charge investors usually aren't justified.
In a Fortune piece, long-time Buffett friend Carol Loomis writes that after six years the fund Buffett selected for the wager, the Vanguard 500 Index Fund Admiral Shares, was up 43.8 percent at the end of 2013.

Last month, Warren Buffett and Dan Gilbert, founder of Quicken Loans, said they would pay $1 billion to anyone who could pick the perfect NCAA March Madness bracket, but it appears that Yahoo may have had the idea first.
A Dallas-based sweepstakes company is claiming that it is owed $4.4 million by Yahoo for backing out of a similar contest that would have paid $1 billion for a perfect bracket as well, Fortune reported on Tuesday.
According to a lawsuit filed last week, Yahoo signed a deal with SCA Promotions late last year, but canceled the contest shortly after Gilbert and Buffett announced theirs.
Dow Chemical Chairman and CEO Andrew Liveris told CNBC on Wednesday that Warren Buffett supports his vision for the company.
The Buffett praise comes as activist investor Daniel Loeb is putting pressure on Dow to spin off its lucrative but slow-growing petrochemical unit and focus on specialty materials.
Liveris revealed in a "Squawk Box" interview that he met with Buffett this week, and the Berkshire Hathaway boss said: "'We're an owner and we like being an owner. And frankly, we think you've been running the company for the investors who will stay versus the investors who will leave.'"
A Buffett representative confirmed this exchange.
In 2008, Berkshire Hathaway helped to finance Dow's deal to buy specialty chemical maker Rohm and Haas for over $15 billion in cash. Berkshire contributed an equity investment of $3 billion worth of convertible preferred securities.
Liveris said he and Buffett are working together "on the best way to do those preferreds, [which] is to let them earn themselves out. He's in the money. He's now an equity investor. ... When it gets to $53.70, they will disappear."
If you think you can be a great investor, you'd better enjoy working with one of the principal tools of the trade: the 10-K. Berkshire Hathaway's Warren Buffett has said he loves to curl up with companies' annual reports. When asked how to get smarter, Buffett once held up stacks of paper and said he "read 500 pages like this every day. That's how knowledge builds up, like compound interest."
Indeed, smart fund managers think of 10-K's as puzzles or treasure hunts and relish the chance to dig through even the microscopic footnotes.
Federal regulators have begun to look at Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway to see if its failure would be damaging enough to threaten the country's financial stability, according to a report by Bloomberg.
It quotes "two people with knowledge" of the matter as saying the staff of the U.S. Financial Stability Oversight Council, led by Treasury Secretary Jack Lew, wants to determine if Berkshire is so important to the health of the financial system that it needs special supervision by the Federal Reserve.
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has converted much of its debt in building products company USG into more than $600 million of common stock in a successful investment made in the wake of the financial crisis.
For the second straight year, shares of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway have outperformed the benchmark S&P 500 stock index.
Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway is buying a Phillips 66 subsidiary with approximately $1.4 billion worth of the oil company's own shares.
In what appears to be a unsurprising transition, Matt Rose will become executive chairman of BNSF Railway and drop his CEO role.
President and Chief Operating Officer Carl Ice, who has been with the Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary for 34 years, will become CEO on Jan. 1, 2014.
Rose's move away from day-to-day duties could increase speculation among Buffett watchers that he is a step closer to becoming Warren Buffett's successor as Berkshire's CEO.
The news release, however, makes it sound like Rose will be at BNSF for years to come.

Untrue, you of little faith,3 projects and the city of Floresville will be in total chaos that we will become bankrupt?I am impressed by your data it is extensive and explained... somewhat.The stats that I was looking for was how fast Wilson county is growing and if looking at those stats is it unreasonable to be able to pay off those loans and more? I not only think that they will be paid off that the additional plans to make our city great will be afforded.The constant hounding of our elected officals I will say, has made them more proactive in getting real infastructure planning going and maintaining our city better.I do live in the city limits and am proud of our little town and the way it is growing daily ,slowly but surely!The mayor which will be Mr.Gomez will have no choice but to make good on all that can be done to better our city.He has been under constant attack for his past and has alot to prove to us in the near future.We once again will but him in office!United we stand divided we fall!See you at the polls!

Annaly's (NLY) bid for the rest of CreXus (CXS) - a player in the CMBS market - shows the company is not going to sit on its hands as the Fed's QE obliterates returns in the Agency MBS sector. "We may allocate up to 25% of our shareholders equity to real estate assets other than Agency MBS," says Annaly CEO Wellington Denehan. CXS +12.6% premarket.
This shows how the REIT market is still unsettled. I will remain OUT until things get quieter. What a shame. Well, at least I am not forced to go back to work. [yet] The NGM's policies make REITs work, and "unwork". DEAL WITH IT.
This week I am meeting with my financial advisors and will listen very nice, take their advise, and do precisely what I want. One wants me into Munis, Well, in theory, with taxes obviously going up, may be a great place, but as I have said, with the coming inflation, and higher taxes, and perhaps even back into recession, and higher interest rates, it may just be standing aside is best for a while yet.
Looking for a trend, and I have tools including a time machine. So one thing for sure, if you have no PM's yet, GET SOME!
The Lost Navigator -
I sold my CXS this morning; always will bank a 20% gain when it comes along and if I have little or no confidence in the firm doing the take over. Maybe in the long run there will be an advantage for NLY doing the diversification into a hybrid. However, I have owned NLY in the past but have serious concerns over their current management.
