Time to exhale. The defending NBA champions after nearly two seasons are finally even with the Washington Wizards.
In one of the more quizzical trends in the NBA, the Heat was 2-3 against Washington since the beginning of the 2011-2012 season. A 99-71 victory at AmericanAirlines Arena on Sunday evened the series. This season, the Heat is 2-1 against the Wizards, which is 4-28 overall.
In all seriousness, the victory was important for reasons other than pummeling the worst team in the NBA. For more than a week, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra had harped about his teams lack of rebounding. After losing the rebounding battle in four of its past five games, the Heat responded with a convincing effort.
Miami (23-9) outrebounded Washington 50-39. On Friday against the Bulls, the Heat was outrebounded 48-28.
The disposition to rebound was better than it was against Chicago, Spoelstra said. Getting on the floor for loose balls, making a cut harder, second and third efforts, all these things you cant take for granted.
The Heat led 69-60 entering the fourth quarter before blowing it open. Led by Ray Allen, the Heat scored 21 points in a row points to finish the game. Allen had 13 points in the final period and finished with 20, going 8 of 12 from the field and 3 of 4 from three-point range.
The Heats bench scored 37 points.
We came in with a focus, Allen said. Defensive [rebounding] was something we really wanted to clamp down on. We wanted to take what the starting five did and make it look better.
Mike Miller had 13 points off the bench, connecting on two three-pointers.
[We have] got to do a better job of, especially on the road, of putting them in a position to succeed, Dwyane Wade said of the Heats bench. There are some things that we can all talk about when theyre on floor that give them better opportunities. But theyre going to be key for us, especially on a long road trip.
The Heat leaves for a six-game road trip first stop Indianapolis on Monday.
LeBron James led the Heat with 24 points, extending his streak of consecutive games with at least 20 points to begin the season. James, who tweaked his ankle in the fourth quarter but finished the game, had seven assists and two rebounds. For Wade, it was a positive sign that the Heat outrebounded the Wizards by 11 but James was limited on the boards.
Wade had seven rebounds to go along with 14 points. He was 7 of 14 from the field. A driving layup by Wade put the Heat ahead by 12 points with 5:15 to play. He scored a reverse layup to all but seal the victory. Allen and James kept pouring it on.
Allens three-pointer with 46.6 seconds left put the Heat ahead by 28 points.
The Heat was 8 of 21 from three-point range (.381) and 38 of 82 (.463) from the field. Those numbers are below the teams season averages, but the Heat made up for it with rebounding, an oddity for this season. Chris Bosh, criticized recently by Spoelstra for not jumping for rebounds, had nine boards to go along with 17 points. He was 6 of 11 from the field and continues to be the Heats most consistent shooter.
Nine, Bosh said to no one and everyone after the game.
He jokingly added that he plans to count all of his rebounds for the foreseeable future.
Udonis Haslem had 12 rebounds in 29 minutes. Allen had six rebounds and Miller had four.
I just wanted to be relentless and chase that rebound, Haslem said.
Wade was happy to see Haslem play so many minutes. Before Sunday, he was averaging 18.9 minutes per game.
If we can get more collective rebounding as we go on this road trip, we need everyone to be involved, Wade said.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- West Virginia officials have never acted on a five-year-old recommendation to adopt a rule that could end one of the most common type of coal-mining accidents: being crushed by a piece of underground equipment.
In September 2008, a team of state Office of Miners' Health, Safety and Training inspectors recommended the state require all underground mine operators to install "proximity detection" systems to shut off mining equipment when it gets too close to workers.
Officials have never adopted such a rule. Some mine operators are adding the systems on their own. State inspectors sometimes mandate proximity detection equipment as an additional safety measure -- but only after miners are killed.
"It's a shame we have to wait until we have a fatality," said state mine safety director Eugene White, "but that's the only avenue we have to require them."
Between 1984 and 2010, 30 miners died and 220 were injured nationwide when they became crushed, pinned or struck by continuous mining machines underground. Mine safety experts say these deaths and injuries could be prevented if mine operators installed proximity detection devices.
On the federal level, two separate U.S. Mine Safety and Health Administration rules to require proximity detection systems remain stalled, one at MSHA and the other at the White House.
MSHA chief Joe Main has touted the fact that some mine operators -- led by CONSOL Energy and Alliance Coal -- are installing proximity detectors without a legal mandate to do so. But the voluntary measures cover only about one-fourth of the continuous mining machines in use around the country, according to MSHA.
In West Virginia, state mine safety officials at one point planned to move to require proximity detection systems ahead of any federal mandate.
Back in June 2008, the state's Mine Safety Technology Task Force planned to have a draft regulation ready by January 2009 so it could become effective by June 2009, according to meeting minutes and other records obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.
"The task force would like to come up with a regulation before federal requirements are proposed on proximity devices," said the minutes, from a June 18-19 meeting in Charleston.
Three months later, in a Sept. 7, 2008, memo, four top state mine inspectors recommended specific language that would have given mine operators a year to install proximity detection systems.
"It is our belief that the use of a device, such as the proximity warning system, will be necessary if we are to ever eliminate injuries of this type," the memo said.

My unfinished basement has a brick-on-sand floor, and every so often the water table here rises high enough to make the bricks moist on the surface. I want to put some kind of flooring down in areas where i work, so that cleaning up will be easier. The flooring will have to be something moisture proof and easy to sweep. I've seen some of the new vinyls for garage floors and exercise rooms, but the textured surface makes me wonder if cleanup is a problem. Anyone got an idea? Thanks.
Your best approach is to correct the water table problem first.
Do you have a sump pump in this floor, I would think not, unless its not working properly.
Installing ANY type of flooring would be foolish without correcting this water problem first.

The Real Deal: High Insurance Rates? Look at your Co-Workers
Updated: Friday, August 2 2013, 10:24 PM EDT
ALBANY – Most of us are paying higher premiums and co-pays for medical insurance than ever before. Those rates may go up before they go down when certain provisions of the President's new healthcare law go into effect.
Even those with company-backed insurance are paying a lot for it. Darryl Baldwin works for a small business in Schenectady, "It's gone up more than 10% just in this past year, so I don't think it's worth the money I pay for it, I only go to the doctors 2-3 times a year," he says. Theresa Kline of Schenectady, agrees saying, "they (insurance companies) pay far less than they ever did for visits and procedures, our co-pays are higher and a lot higher for some medicines…we're paying much more out of pocket for insurance." Both Baldwin and Kline are worried the premiums will just keep going up.
While a number of variables go into setting plans and premiums, insurers are relying more heavily now on history. "Over 100 employees and many times you'll be experience-rated, so if your experience is favorable, you'll have a much lower rate than someone who would have an adverse experience," says John Murray, the President and CEO of Rose & Kiernan Inc., in East Greenbush, Meaning, take a look around you the next time you're at the office to see how young and healthy your co-workers are. "A more mature population might have more chronic illnesses that are being treated, they may have a much higher use of prescription drugs which will drive up costs fairly meaningfully. On the other hand, when you look at some of the tech companies, some of the start-ups...it can be a younger, healthier and more of a single population, they likely have significantly lower healthcare rates," says Murray.

The seminar brought renowned scholars in peace and conflict resolution from across the United States to the Institute for a full day of public panel presentations and discussions, followed by a half day of internal discussion. Dr. Mary Lyons, President of the University of San Diego, introduced the seminar. The Institute expresses its thanks to her and to then-Interim Provost Anne Donnellan for their support to this event; and to the scholars, who offered their expert advice.

The Miami Marlins are looking to pick up a split of this series with the Cincinnati Reds, and they will give it a try today with Alex Sanabia on the mound. For the Fish, this would be a nice #minorvictory to get, given that the team has yet to not lose a series this season; picking up a not-loss series is better than another beatdown from the opposing team. Standing in the way of that goal is Homer Bailey and the potent Reds offense.
Pitching Matchup
Proj Win% | Proj ERA | FIP | ERA | Marlins | Reds | ERA | FIP | Proj ERA | Proj Win% |
.344 | 5.52 | 5.38 | 4.24 | Sanabia | Bailey | 3.32 | 4.13 | 4.14 | .479 |
Alex Sanabia is the proud owner of two of the four total pitching wins that the Marlins have gotten. He has accomplished this by unknown, borderline nefarious means. No one understands just how he has done it given his terrible peripherals thus far. Then again, his terrible peripherals have also been confusing, as he has had good whiff numbers for the season. In short, no one understands Alex Sanabia at all.
Bailey has been a promising player for years for the Reds, but he finally turned some of that promise into goods in 2012 and he is looking to continue that in 2013. His biggest problem is the home run, as he has given up long balls at a 1.1-per-nine-innings rate for his career. Luckily for him and the Reds, the home run is the Marlins' greatest weakness, as the team has hit just four on the season.
Order | Player | Proj wOBA vs. RHP |
1 | Chris Coghlan | .313 |
2 | Donovan Solano | .277 |
3 | Giancarlo Stanton | .402 |
4 | Joe Mahoney | --- |
5 | Justin Ruggiano | .314 |
6 | Rob Brantly | .302 |
7 | Nick Green | --- |
8 | Chris Valaika | --- |
The Marlins are giving veterans Juan Pierre and Placido Polanco a well-deserved rest. The positive note for Marlins fans is that they get a well-deserved rest from Juan Pierre, who has been awful this season. If Chris Coghlan get anywhere close to a .313 wOBA versus righties, this would be one of the club's best lineups versus right-handers. Solano batting second and the unknown of Joe Mahoney inexplicably batting cleanup are the only two complaints near the top of the order.
Bold Prediction: Marlins def. Reds 3-2

Part way through the Feb. 27 conference on electric competition, it was so quiet you could hear a hockey puck slide across the ice. No, hell had not frozen over. Rather, it was Commissioner Marc...
THERE ARE NO FUNDAMENTAL FLAWS. Our systems are functional."
So said CEO Dennis Loughridge, of the California Power Exchange, in announcing nevertheless on Dec. 22 that the opening of the state's day-ahead electricity market, planned originally for Jan. 1, would be delayed because software and systems testing could not be completed satisfactorily.
"California's electron highway is the fifth largest in the world. We need to take the time to make the transfer¼ seamless," added Gary Heath, executive director for the state's electricity oversight board.
In a news conference held Dec. 29, Loughridge joined Jeffrey Tranen, CEO of the California Independent System Operator, to project a new March 31 startup - a date, said Tranen, "that we reasonably believe we can meet." Nevertheless, that date must remain contingent until the both Tranen and Loughridge, and the CEOs of the three affected utilities (PG&E, Edison, and San Diego Gas & Electric) each certifies to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission that "all of the necessary features" are in place to ensure "reliable grid operations" at the moment the ISO and PX commence operations.
You're probably thinking: "Does this mean I can bypass the CTC?"
Actually, it looks better than that. The three-month delay may end up going down as the ultimate win-win for consumers.
First, the calculation of the "nonbypassable" competition transition charge depends entirely on the PX price. No PX, no CTC.
Second, however, and even more important, the delay will not postpone the 10-percent rate cut that state lawmakers promised for residential and small business customers in Assembly Bill 1890. In an emergency order issued Dec. 23, Public Utilities Commissioner P. Gregory Conlon made sure to that. He noted that the rate freeze and the 10 percent rate cut would continue "regardless of the status of the ISO and PX." In similar fashion, despite the delay, utilities go ahead and collect "headroom" revenues to offset transition costs.
So the longer the delay, the smaller the CTC.
• • •
Did anybody anticipate that California's market would fail to open on time? Speaking to reporters on Dec. 29, ISO CEO Tranen emphasized that the Jan. 1 startup was a "political end-date." One might argue that it was unrealistic from the get-go. In our last issue, where we polled a number of experts on their impressions of California's direct-access plan, no one mentioned the words "software," or "computer." Perhaps we selected the wrong focus group.
When the news first came out, it brought to mind something I'd read a couple months back. Rummaging through my files, I located a set of comments filed last August California Energy Commission on final reports issued by the direct-access workshops on (1) retail settlement and information flow, and (2) meter and data communications standards. There, buried in the comments on information standards and protocols for electric metering, lies an insight that I believe explains the reasons behind California's software failure and market delay. In short, the CEC saw too much emphasis on the supply side - not enough attention paid to customers and their needs. Here's what the CEC

04-17-2008, 02:53 PMHotel Blake Chicago
I have bought numerous and amazing packages from Luxury Link without a problem. Recently, I purchased an auction for the Hotel Blake, which I reserved for July 4. After my purchase, I read numerous reviews on various travel websites, such as Tripadvisor.com, and there are a multitude of negative reviews on this property and the adjoining restaurant. Had I read the reviews before bidding, I would have passed this property in a second.
Has anyone stayed at the Hotel Blake who could comment on the reviews I have read and share their experiences?
Does Luxury Link staff pay any attention to the reviews on travel websites, or do they just sign up any property willing and able to pay the fees to be on Luxury Link?
I am more than nervous about our upcoming stay and regretting my purchase.
Re: Hotel Blake Chicago
fredelledge....we love using www.tripadvisor.com and have found it to be a wonderful source of information. We especially enjoy reading "negative" comments on properties we are in the process of visiting. We are not opposed to telephone or email the property and asking them to respond to the issues outlined in the negative comment(s). If management is dismissive of the comments without an informed explanation, then we might be a bit suspect.
Our personal experiences have been "added" services and "extra" attentive care often occurs when you have had prior contact with a property. Of the more than 17 trips we have purchased through LL, (several of which had "negative" comments on tripadvisor), we have never had a poor experience.
btw...we checked the Hotel Blake ontripadvisor and there certainly are some unhappy guest comments. Ifwe were on our way tothe Hotel Blake, we would be making a telephone call and speaking with no less than the assistant general manager and asking some questions! Can't hurt.
Other community members may have different experiences they wish to share.- Ω -

That's great advice. I will give the hotel a call tomorrow and discuss the situation with them. Thanks!
Re: Hotel Blake Chicago
fredelledge, how about an update on your conversations with management at the Hotel Blake? Did you telephone and if so, do you feel comfortable with the information your received?
Re: Hotel Blake Chicago
Hi fredelledge. I have also looked ath the Hotel Blake for a long weekend get away from our home on the East Coast. I will be interested in your responses.
I do like to use Tripadvisor.com. I do LOVE to read the travel reviews. However, I have found them to be quite interesting as to what people like and don't like. (there have been numerous threads on this issue in the past.) Only in my opinion, the reviews that seem extremely negative seem to come from someone expecting something that is out of the norm (for example, room service in huts in a Central American country along with bedroom slippers gratis! Crazy!) I agree with Omegaet to call the hotel and ask questions THAT ARE IMPORTANT TO YOU. For example, with the Hotel Blake, do you like the location, is there parking if you need it, is it a noisy neighborhood, etc. I personally try to gather information as to what I am looking for in a property. (which is sometimes different than what others look for.)\
In summary, I am so sorry that you have been reading some negative info which might or might not be true. Do call the hotel and get some type of peace of mind and please report back.
Re: Hotel Blake Chicago
fredelledge , did you have any luck when you contacted the Hotel Blake in Chicago. Did you get a response or answers to your questions?

Post subject: Will my crazy sleeping schedule affect schooling?
Hi there, new user here. I've been thinking about homeschooling my son after he finishes this school year. He will be 7yo by the time that happens and in second grade.
The main reason I've been thinking about homeschooling him is because I just absolutely HATE the public school system. I hated it when I went, and as a parent, I hate it even more. I am a punk-rock, mohawked momma and I'm constantly bickering with office staff about my son's tardiness and with his teacher about why he gets graded on his social behavior (he's a loner--not social).
Anyway, I feel that all of this is ridiculous. I don't feel like he should be held back because he's not adapting, socially (he's smarter than every kid in his class), and I cringe at the fact that child services is going to be called because of the lack of hours he spends in school just because I have a sleep disorder.
I've read a lot about people homeschooling their kids at night, and I believe the time of day doesn't matter for where we live (in Florida). But, what I'm looking for are other people's opinions on if it can be done and if it's healthy and/or will actually help my son.
My problem is that I have a sleep disorder. I sleep at random times of the day for about 4-5 hours at a time. I work from home, so I know I could homeschool him. But I'm worried that my sleep schedule may deprive him in his needs for education, attention, supervision, etc.
Currently, I sleep while he is AT school. My entire life, I've been a nightowl. Naturally, my body clock always wants me asleep during the day. I've tried my entire schoolage and working life to adapt to a daytime schedule and it has only resulted in daily detentions for being late, sleeping through every class I've had, and getting fired from every day job I've ever had.
How can this possibly work with homeschooling? My son works fine on a daytime schedule, and I don't want to forcibly make him into a nightowl like me because I KNOW the difficulties that comes with.
It's absolutely impossible for me to ever be awake before noon. And I don't want a 7yo wandering around the house unsupervised, waiting for me to wake up. My husband has a similar sleep disorder. But he's also a nighttime chef and plays in a band--so his mornings are usually spent sleeping as well.
Is there anyone out there that can suggest something? Or does anyone else have the same problem that has successfully homeschooled? TIA for any advice!

Here are some thoughts just off the top of my head:
I think if I were you, I would work on changing my sleep schedule for good. You could work on it now, while your son is finishing out this school year and be ready to begin homeschooling.
I just did a quick google search -- how to change your sleep schedule -- and of course, there is a lot of information about it. Here is just one link:
You could also see if your doctor could help you with changing your sleep habits. You could slowly adjust your sleep until it is a bit more normal. Then you could allow your son to stay up later (maybe until 10) and you could all sleep the next morning till 10.
Yes, you can homeschool at ANY time of day. This is true no matter what state you live in. You can be as flexible as you like.
Your son can be a part of a homeschool co-op (classes with other homeschoolers) or homeschool support group (fun activities, field trips, etc.) and that would be his social outlet.
If you are not happy with the public schools, I would definitely find a way to homeschool, even if it means making a major adjustment in your sleep pattern. I think you can do it! Best wishes.

Thanks, but my sleep disorder is incurable. It's called Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome and I've had it my entire life. It's dictated by circadian rhythms and no amount of drugs, change, counting sheep or anything I've tried has ever worked (permanently, anyway). It's basically like asking a normal sleeper to wake up at 10pm every day for the rest of their life. They might be able to change it temporarily, but not permanently. It's akin to having jetlag every single day that I've lived.

Well, in that case, I would say you can still homeschool your son, but I guess the biggest issue would be, like you said, his safety when he gets up in the mornings and you are still sleeping. When he is older, it won't matter, but now it does. Maybe you can find a solution for keeping him safe until you are awake and then begin your studies for the day. Hope it works out for you!

I use to work nights when my two little ones were about 5 and 3. It took a while but my children ended up on my sleep schedule. Maybe see if there is a way to do something of that sort and during the weekend you guys can go out and be part of different social groups.

My son has many issues with sleeping and staying on a schedule. I don't think you should really worry about it so much. One of the great things about homeschooling is that it can fit in with any schedule. I think it is important to be on a schedule but that does not mean it has to be a "traditional" schedule that you are on!

I have been on night cycles for months at a time, without seeming to be able to get back on a normal schedule. What worked for me was (a) at least attempting to not use any electronic devices before sleep time, (b) keeping the light off at night (your body doesn't produce melatonin real well in the light), and (c) getting enough cardio to wear me out a bit (but not -just- before sleep, since there's a temporary alertness spike). At the moment, I'm on a relatively normal schedule, but I'm sure next time I'm sick I'll be back on the night kick again. I do find the night soothing, but if I want to do anything -with- anyone else, I need to be up when the sun is out.
EDIT: I also keep my iPad real dim, if I do use it at night.

What they wore had meaning.
At Sunday's funeral for Spc. Charlie Messer of Fort Lawn, injured in Iraq in July and killed in a car accident in Texas Dec. 22, what some in the large crowd of friends and family that filled Lewisville High School's gymnasium wore showed something of what they were thinking or feeling.
His mother came in a NASCAR jacket, a Kasey Kahne jacket to be precise. It was new. It is the last Christmas present she received from her son, the only present anyone in Messer's family received from Charlie this Christmas.

Anyone who needed to have that explained to them is demonstrably resistant to facts and so-called "common sense" and is therefore a lost cause. Mass numbers of non-individuals agreeing with you bandwagon-style is the only thing they would find persuasive.

Premier Charlestown Collection
The Charleston collection by Premier has gained international attention. The traditional and Victorian characteristics are beautiful, but most talked about is the price. Faucet styles like this tend to cost 3 times the price. Kitchen faucets are available in the legendary "bridge" design that was made popular at the turn of the 20th century. Bath faucets follow the same style lines, and are available in both widespread and centerset configurations. Also available are shower faucets in both shower-only and tub-and-shower installation types.

C is for Cocoa | |
Subject: | Thanks! | |
Date: | 2003-07-23 10:46:08 | |
From: | anonymous2 | |
As a beginner with no lower level programming experience, this series is shaping up to be absolutely perfect for me. Having used Applescript Studio for some time now, I felt eager to move to Cocoa, but was reluctant to teach myself C because I could not foresee using it frequently enough to become comfortable with it quickly (can't give up the day job). This feels like the right pace and approach - please keep 'em coming! |

Stop being reluctant to teach yourself C. The truth comes out, you have to learn it to use Cocoa. You will use it a lot and learning it quickly is not an option, it can take time. It's well worth the effort.
