Stanley Crouch, Author of Kansas City Lightning: The Rise and Times of Charlie Parker
Stanley Crouch, the noted music authority, author, columnist, and essayist will sign and talk at Faulkner House, 624 Pirate's Alley, Saturday, November 9 at 2:00 p. m. He has a new book coming about a famed jazz musician, Kansas City Lighting: The Rise and Times of Charlie Parker. No musician has lived a more transformational, or more tragic, life than Charlie Parker, one of the most talented and influential musicians of the 20th century. From the start of his career in the late 1930s, Parker personified the tortured American artist: a revolutionary performer who internalized all of popular music and blew it back through his saxophone in the form of a new music known as bebop—even as he wrestled with a drug addiction that would ultimately contribute to his death at the age of 34.
Booklist gave the new book a starred review and had this to say about the book and Stanley Crouch:
To jazz lovers, the prospect of music and cultural critic Crouch taking on the life of the iconic Charlie Parker carries the anticipation that fans would have had at the great battles of the jazz bands or the cutting contests vividly described here. Crouch captures with novelistic verve the excitement of that period in covering the early years of Parker's ultimately short life, which contained within it so many warring elements that he has daunted even, perhaps especially, awestruck biographers. Crouch's eyes are wide open, and he lends his considerable talents to a jazz biography that ranks with the very best.
Trumpet master Wynton Marsalis gives Crouch an the new book high
It takes a lifetime of passionate engagement to write with the intensity and depth of Stanley Crouch. He has spent more than thirty years researching and contemplating the storied life of Charlie Parker, one of Western music's greatest minds. The results are insightful, profound, and wholly original. A must read, not just for jazz fans, but for anyone interested in American possibilities."
Publishers Weekly says:
With the straight-ahead timing and the ethereal blowing of a great jazzman, Crouch delivers a scorching set in this first of two volumes of his biography of Charlie 'Yardbird' Parker, capturing the downbeats and the up-tempo moments of the great saxophonist's life and music.
And Kirkus Reviews says:
Crouch, whose journalism has appeared in just about every major venue and whose books have earned widespread critical appreciation, is uniquely qualified to guide readers on this tour. . . . Crouch is a phrasemaker, and the text is chockablock with memorable lines. A friend's death 'was like drinking a cup of blues made of razor blades.' A story rich in musical history and poignant with dramatic irony.
Crouch has appeared at a variety of Faulkner Society events in the past and is always a marvelously entertaining speaker. Open to the public with advance reservations to firstname.lastname@example.com, the event will include light refreshments. So, do come out an lift a glass to one of America's great cultural observers and writers, Stanley Crouch.
To reserve your book in advance, call Faulkner House Books, (504) 524-2940 or e-mail us at email@example.com.

PokerNews Hostess/Writer
Happy 2012 from PCA
Hello everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful New Year I had a really good time taking advantage of living on the Strip. My friends and I walked down from Veer to Flamingo and Las Vegas. It was so crowded, but SO much fun.
My first trip of the year for PokerNews is back to the Bahamas for the PCA. Sarah and I shot a welcome video the first day we were here. Since there are been numerous welcome videos from this location, we decided to have some fun!
I'm looking forward to reaching a few personal goals this year. Last year was my favorite one so far, but probably because I just had way too much fun. This year, I want to focus, stay motivated, and make some progress in other parts of my life.
Do you guys have resolutions? If so, work hard! Stick with them! This song is going to motivate me this year!
<3 Kris

Meditation teacher's practice thrives in Mountain View
Original post made on Sep 10, 2012

With all due respect, I have never before heard a Buddhist teacher describe herself as "an authority" on any aspect of Buddhism, but rather as a continuing student herself.
Neither have I heard a teacher claim that the insights she shares come out of her own practice or mind. Buddhist teachers clarify and share the insights of the Buddha, the principles of Buddhism.
on Sep 10, 2012 at 6:34 pm
Yes, but this is the Voice you are reading. So expect anything.
on Sep 10, 2012 at 9:04 pm
Shaila Catherine is one of the best and most skillful Buddhist teachers I have ever met. Her specialty is deep concentration, but she is also highly skilled in other aspects of meditative practice. I'm so fortunate to have her right in my neighborhood. I'm feeling lucky. :)

Reed Harris never intended to become a mixed martial arts promoter, but they say life is what happens when you're busy making other plans. A real estate developer and tae kwon do black belt, Harris likes to say his primary goal as a martial artist was simply to be the toughest dad at Cub Scouts. But it turns out he was also the only martial artist one of his wife's relatives knew, a relative who just happened to be the head of marketing at the Tachi Palace Hotel and Casino. The Casino was looking to run quarterly MMA shows - and Harris knew just the guy to help.
Scott Adams was the submission grappling instructor at SLO Kickboxing, Harris's training grounds in San Luis Obispo, California. Adams was a bit of a local legend - undefeated in mixed martial arts his leg locks were rumored to be the best in the world. He proved it once on the big stage, submitting Ian Freeman at UFC 24 with one of his patented hold, then faded into the background. He kept an active hand in the game though, training guys like Chuck Liddell, and Harris thought this was an opportunity they could take advantage of together. Liddell was supposed to be the third partner and the promotion's main event star. But right before the first event the phone rang for him to fight Kevin Randleman in the UFC. It was too good an opportunity to pass up. Liddell was out. The first show was instead main evented by road warriors Dan Severn and Travis Fulton.
The WEC has often been mislabeled as a regional promotion. They were never that, unless by region you mean the area immediately surrounding the Tachi Palace. They were a house promotion, much like the Maximum Fighting Championship has been for the River Cree Resort and Casino in Canada. For five years, it was slow and steady, running a string of successful shows at the Casino using the abundant local talent in California. Harris ran down some of the names in a recent interview at UFC.com:
Urijah Faber. Shane Carwin, he seemed so powerful. I knew when I met him. Nick and Nate Diaz. Gan McGee, I thought he would end up being champ but he didn't. I mean, he destroyed Seth Petruzelli and Ron Faircloth. Listen, this is a good story: I went to Ron Faircloth the day after he fought Gan McGee. Gan McGee hit him so hard that Ron … I go up to Ron Faircloth the next day and I said, 'What was your strategy?' And he said, 'I remember getting to the parking lot of the venue. That's the last thing I remember.'" I was like damn!
There were other guys like Glover Texeira, Joe Riggs and Jorge Oliveira. These are all guys that I thought had a lot of talent.
They had stretched early on, looking to make it big in the pre-Ultimate Fighter era, running the Mohegan Sun Arena in Connecticut with headliner Jeremy Horn. They only sold 3200 tickets for the bout and quickly scuttled back to the safety of the Palace, lessons definitely learned. Except for a single excursion to another local casino, the promotion was homebound until it was acquired by Zuffa, the parent company of the UFC, in 2006.
It was a strange time in the business and the UFC was looking to put a stranglehold on their position as the industry's top brand. PRIDE and the IFL were the competitors du jour and UFC management thought it paramount to keep both promotions from acquiring a significant television deal. The best way, they thought at the time, to keep that from happening was to insert another group in their stead. They acquired two promotions in the same month, the WFA and the WEC. WFA fighters were folded into the UFC - but because they had run their own show so successfully, Harris and Adams were tasked with keeping the WEC alive. A deal was struck with the Versus Network and the promotion was off and running.
Hardcore fans were immediately in love. Adams knew MMA talent and had a gift for finding exciting matchups. Soon some fans were telling everyone who would listen that the WEC was not only worth watching - the events were actually more exciting than their UFC counterparts. Harris told the Bleacher Report's Brian Oswald that response like that was an amazing energy boost in those early days under the Zuffa umbrella:
It is a real compliment. Whenever anyone even compares us to the UFC I feel complimented. The fact that we did a different color scheme when we revamped the company, the fact that we went with a smaller cage (26 feet vs. 30 feet) helped push the action, and the fact that early on we decided to focus on the smaller divisions and not just be a feeder organization to the UFC.
We did not want to live under their shadow, but rather go out on our own. Establish our own market and establish our own fans. There are enough fans out there for both of us. It's like with college football and the NFL. Most of those fans are interchangeable and then you have fans that just watch one or the other.
Expectations were enormously high and the promotion delivered in a big way at WEC 34. Co-founder Scott Adams was ecstatic about the main event of Urijah Faber and Jens Pulver. The sky seemed like the limit for the promotion when the bout attracted more than a million viewers on Versus.
"Being acquired by Zuffa, we have the backbone now to be able to grow so much," Adams told flowrestling. His gameplan as matchmaker was simple."... Putting together really exciting, evenly matched fights. We're booking the best MMA fighters on the planet, selling out arenas, and as we grow our PR department gets them everywhere. I think that is what is going to help us grow and the athletes are actually going to grow with us."
More on the WEC story after the break
For Adams, the WEC experience was mostly in the rear view mirror. UFC Vice President Joe Silva and President Dana White thought it was important for the WEC to be a distinct entity, something that didn't look like a junior version of the UFC, like a kid playing dress up in dad's suit. The idea was to focus the promotion in like a laser on the lighter weight classes the UFC didn't promote. To run this new look promotion, long time Zuffa employee Sean Shelby was inserted as matchmaker. Adams, the company's co-founder, was out. The change was incredibly controversial within the company, but in the end, even Harris admitted to me in an interview for Heavy.com that it was for the smart play:
When we decided to focus on the lighter weights we knew we had our work cut out for us. But if you look at boxing for example, it took many yeas, but now the lightweight guys are the guys everybody is interested in. If you look at the time frame, I only started really focusing on the light weights about eight months ago. Now look where we are at. Everyone in the MMA industry says the best lightweights in the world fight for WEC. I get calls from across the world, from Japan, from Korea, from Brazil, with coaches saying 'I've got lightweight fighters we want to bring into the WEC, because these guys want to fight the best.' It used to be the other way around. We used to have to chase after them.
I think in the next year you're going to see a lot of things happening in the WEC. We've got a new deal with Versus. We're going to go to the PPV model. We're going to possibly go to Mexico and Canada and expand internationally. We're going to do more shows. I'm looking forward to next year. You're going to see alot of things happen with the WEC and I think that we are starting to step out of the shadow of the UFC. They are our parent company and they cast a big shadow. I think going to the lighter fighters, which was something Dana (White) wanted us to do and, by the way, I didn't want to do. Now I look back and I'm really glad we did that.
Unfortunately for fans, while the WEC was a tremendous artistic success, it never made its mark at the box office. The promotion's first event on Versus, WEC 28, drew 416,000 viewers. That number has stayed pretty static throughout the organization's history. The WEC averages less than 500,000 viewers for events not headlined by their lone break out performer Urijah Faber, a star who more than doubles a shows ratings by his mere presence.
In the end, the WEC is perhaps a noble failure, a promotion that always provided exciting action and created a number of fan favorites like Faber, Miguel Torres, and Jose Aldo. But without the UFC name attached to these superlative athletes, it was hard to gain traction in a market place that may not have room for more than one major player. The WEC was a success, but ultimately limited the potential of some of these tremendous fighters. That's why the promotion is finally being put on mothballs, gone but never forgotten. Harris and company are proud of all they accomplished - and rightfully so. He tells MMA Weekly it was quite a ride:
"To be honest, today, I'm really proud of what we did, man. And Dana's proud of what we did. We were so successful that the UFC had no other option than to bring these guys in and put them in their show," he said.
"The UFC is obviously by miles the largest MMA organization in the world. The WEC built these divisions to a point where they are now going to be featured on the largest stage in MMA. Dana and Lorenzo and Frank are obviously extremely happy about what we were doing. This was a huge success."

At a special called meeting Friday of the Montgomery County Board of Education a draft of a letter was presented which called for the Alabama Board of Education to take over the Montgomery's public schools.
Read the draft of the letter here
The letter was not revealed until the board voted on several "late add" agenda items including:
When the voting was complete, Board Member Mary Briers presented material regarding the School Boards Roles and Responsibilities, Board Chairman Charlotte Meadows immediately moved to adjourn the meeting. When no other members seconded the adjournment, the meeting continued with the release by Briers of Meadows' letter.
The Board Roles and Responsibilities document included a bullet point stating:
"To ensure board members understand that, under law, the school board acts as a board and that individual board members have no independent authority."
Briers said she had been given Meadows' letter by "someone", though she would not identify that person.
In the draft, Meadows asks the Alabama State Department of Education to go beyond their current investigation regarding alleged grade changes at some schools and "take over our school system."
"It was not something that I intended to release at this time, however it is very much the sentiments that I feel," says Meadows.
The document states there is chaos, confusion and mistrust in the school system and something needs to be done to fix it--including a leadership overhaul.
"To appoint an interim superintendent to come in and review all of our procedures and policies and everything we do from the top down," adds Meadows.
Both Superintendent Barbara Thompson and Mary Briers say Meadows overstepped her boundaries as chairman and that she isn't allowed to ask for a state take over without board approval.
"There are individual rights and there are things you can do as a board," says Thompson.
"That was not protocol," adds Briers.
Meadows believes she is within her rights since she had no intention of revealing the letter publicly until the investigation into alleged grade changing at three Montgomery high schools is complete.
"I was expecting that to happen in the next couple weeks," says Meadows.
Meadows says the grade changing allegations are only the tip of the iceberg and a state take over could help resolve what she says are many other issues plaguing the system.
"When you add it all together...it's atrocious."
Meadows says she knows there are plenty of great things going on at MPS.
She believes the bad, though, casts a dark shadow saying "we need something really drastic" to turn the system around.

BONHAM, TX - After learning that the paper angels on the Christmas tree at the store were kids who might not get anything for Christmas, this little girl decided she knew exactly how she wanted to spend her piggy bank money she'd been saving for a year.
Meet 6 year old Carlie Spohn.
Just a few weeks ago she did something that most kids her age wouldn't even think about.
"It's just wonderful when anybody is generous and helps us out, but it's especially heart warming when you see kids reaching out and helping other kids," said Fannin County Children's Center Executive Director, Sandy Barber.
Her piggy bank is pretty empty right now, but she wouldn't have it any other way.
After a year of saving up change, she finally got to spend it on anything she wanted.
But when she found out some kids might not get any presents for Christmas, she told her step mom she wanted to help.
"We went to the Walmart here in Bonham and they have the teddy bears and she looked through a few of them and she saw one for a little girl 6 years old like she is, and so that's the one she chose," said Step Mom, Heather Spohn.
"Cause I wanted her to have a present." C
Carlie isn't much of a talker, but Fannin County Children's Center Executive Director, Sandy Barber, says her kindness gives them hope for the future.
"They'll eventually grow up and be the adults that will help keep organizations like this going and so we like to see that parents are teaching kids about that kind of stuff."
And Spohn, says Carlie is already saving up change, to help another kid, next Christmas.
"It let's me know that she understands the true meaning of Christmas is really about helping others and that's what she likes about it, that she gets to get a present for someone who may otherwise not have one."

From the moment you come aboard you are treated like an old friend. The pixiedust is all around - not a trace of cynicism from a single crew member (even when the kids are annoying). In fact some of the crew seem to be having almost as good a time as the passengers. You know it's Disney when an engineer from the depths of the ship, clad in a white Disney coverall spotted in oil passes by, catches your eye and SINCERELY wishes you a "Good Morning" with a smile (I'm as cynical as they come and I was totally taken in).
We didn't do all of the Port Adventures, we were more selective than most, but we still saw Rome (hot, big queues), Pompeii (hot, large tour groups) and Sorrento (beautiful), Valetta ( sunny and gorgeous) and the Nice/Monaco/Monte Carlo area (getting ready for the wedding, but still well worth a visit). Food - great, drink - expensive, (but hey, I'm on vacation), entertainment - absolutely second to none, with extremely high production values. The Oceaneers Lab was just perfect - we let our 8-yr old sign herself in and out and she had a fantastic time; at no stage did we feel she was unsafe (the Mickey Tag they all wear on boarding sees to that!) and neither did we feel that as adults we couldn't get some "me time" in the spa or adults only pool/coffee shop. One thing - do not think you can do this cheap - your bill quickly adds up especially if you're a drinker. But do it if you can afford it - its a must!

For those of us who were drooling when Apple announced their 27-inch iMac, it's been a long wait for a stand-alone 27-inch monitor to be released. Dell's UltraSharp U2711 finally delivers the 2560x1440 (WQHD) goods.
High resolution 27-inch monitors represent a shift in the monitor market away from their 30-inch relatives. They provide the same horizontal resolution but with a 16:9 aspect ratio. This leaves us with 160 less pixels on the vertical end. It's been suggested that this shift is partly due to manufacturing costs. HDTVs are produced on a 16:9 ratio scale, making it more expensive to fit manufacturing plants to produce 16:10 30-inch displays.
The U2711 features an IPS panel, 6ms response time, and 350 cd/m2 brightness. You get 1 HDMI connection, 2 DVI, 1 display port, 1 VGA, 1 compontent video, 1 composite video, 1 USB 2.0 upstream port, 4 USB 2.0 downstream ports, 8-in-1 media card reader, and sound bar support.
Interestingly, the U2711 does not have LED backlighting. Instead it uses CCFL. The reason? Better colors. The CCFL lighting allows the U2711 to reach a 102% color gamut as opposed to 72% on the LED backlit 27-inch iMac.
Awake, the U2711 consumes 113W (without audio and USB) and less than 2W while sleeping, and weighs in at 17 pounds.

(WMC-TV) - Blue ribbons hang around Ripley High School, where friends and family say a 15-year-old was bullied so bad he tried to take his own life. He is still clinging to life at Le Bonheur Children's Hospital.
A suicide just days ago has parents and school leaders concerned about this disturbing trend, wondering what is happening in Ripley to make students think suicide is the only way out.
School officials say a plan was developed in an effort to keep something like this from happening again.
"I think we should all come together as a community to stop the things that are making these tragedies occur," said Brianna Hardee, friend of Keifer Greer, who was found dead in his home Monday.
The district attorney says the investigation into Greer's death likely will not be a criminal case.
"People in my class, they get bullied all the time and I started to take up for a student who's been bullied," said Hardee. "She tried to speak out to the class but they didn't take her seriously at all."
The blue ribbon anti-bullying campaign is evident in the small town as residents grieve. It started three weeks ago after 15-year-old Dillan Custer tried to end his life.
A blue ribbon anti-bullying campaign started three weeks ago after 15-year-old Ripley High student Dillan Custer tried to take his own life.
School officials say this trend is disturbing.
"Our hearts go out to the families," said Lauderdale County School Board member Austin Thompson, Jr. "It's just going through the whole community."
Thompson says additional counselors and guest speakers will be on hand at Ripley High School beginning next week to give students in crisis an anonymous place to vent their concerns.
"Just don't know what happened here. We're just concerned about our children and want to get them help," added Thompson.
Officials are still investigating whether or not bullying is the reason behind both of the incidents.

NHL News: Flyers Sign Jaromir Jagr
All of this Jaromir Jagr talk doesn't change the fact that the Pens could still potentially re-sign Tyler Kennedy
Greg Wyshynski's take on the latest Peter Svoboda drama.
What was supposed to be a simple yes or no answer from Jaromir Jagr to the Penguins turned into a confusing cross-continential journey yesterday. By day's end, even Jagr's own reps couldn't comment...
In an impromptu interview broadcasted (unknowingly) on the internet, Jaromir Jagr's agent scolded a Penguins blog (not this one) for calling his phone and tells them no decision about Jagr's future...
I was driving into work this morning and developed a flawless, systematic formula that proves Jaromir Jagr will sign with the Penguins. If Jagr signs with the Pens (or any team for that matter - but let's remain optimistic) it will be his 19th NHL season. I'm applying the laws of numerology to this equation and saying he signs with the Penguins today. Crosby's 87 - Jagr's 68 = 19 Malkin's 71 + 19 = 90 (Jagr's Rookie Year) Kool Aid tastes good.Join The Jagr Watch Thread

vacation rental description
This is the last remodel I'm ever doing at St. John's! Horray! 203 was three single studio apartments that shared a hall bathroom. We combined them, making a large two bedroom with its own bath. The living room/dining and kitchen areas are all in one large corner room with the greatest view of traffic on East Pike Street. It's a real fun place to sit and watch.
The apartment has a nice master bedroom with a queen bed, dresser, two night stands, a combination writing desk and make-up table, and a 40' Samsung LED TV.
The second bedroom has two adult sized (meaning extra long) twin beds. The beds are actually made for adults, so they are comfortable, unlike ordinary twin beds. And of course when younger people sleep in them it's no problem as they seem spacious and very fancy. Both these beds and the one in the master have padded headboards so they're comfortable places to sit and read or watch TV. The second bedroom also has a Samsung TV but this one is only 32'.
The main room also has a TV, another Samsung 40' LED TV. We have Dish Network (a satellite system) with lots of channels including HBO. There is of course also free wireless internet. And there's a stereo in the living room with a docking station for your ipod or iphone. It also plays CDs and there's a small selection in the apartment.
The living room is quite comfortable. The couch is made by American Leather and is of high quality. They have a patented system of making a sleeper sofa. They use a solid plywood platform and heavy foam. It makes a firm but very comfortable place to sleep. And when it's put away it's a nice couch. There's also a comfortable easy chair and a table with 4 chairs in the window nook. That's where we like to sit and people watch.
The apartment is on the corner of East Pike and Harvard. It's a busy intersection with pedestrian traffic. There are two colleges within blocks of us. And lots of people living in the area. Across the street from us is a 24 hour grocery store, which draws people to our location. And up the street, about 3 blocks from us, is the center of a very vibrant night life scene. We're just on the fringe of it, which is a good thing actually. It's amazing to walk around up there on a Friday or Saturday night, but then it's nice to come back to St. John's where the neighborhood isn't totally packed and amazing.
The kitchen is small, taking up one long wall. There's a small 4 burner stove with oven and a large microwave oven. Plus a blender, toaster, coffee maker and all the pots and pans and utensils and plates and silverware and the basic cooking essentials. Just go across the street to the store and it's easy to stay in the apartment and avoid high priced meals every time you go out. It's a good little kitchen. It works real well and it's a great place to cook and eat and hang out.
The building has 23 apartments total. We have six short-term rentals and 17 full time apartments. We have a live in manager, Johnny, who will check you in and out and take care of any needs you might have while you're with us.
Built in 1905, St. John's has character. It has large halls and beautiful old woodwork and it's a great place! We've owned it for almost eight years now, and we've remodeled the entire place. This apartment, #203, is my last remodel! It's all done! It's a great feeling. My wife and I stay in the apartments when they are not rented, giving us a place to stay in the city. This is a really good thing to do because we are always looking for ways to improve the apartments. We make sure the kitchens have everything you need to cook and that everything works the way we designed it.
There's much more to the St. John's story. We have a large website with many more photos and information. You can also reserve directly through the website at any time. Thank you for looking at our properties, and we hope you come stay with us!

Greetings NCNCA racers!
Just wanted to let you know there is yet another new club to meet and possibly join. We are Tri Valley Velo, with name sponsorship currently in the works. Focused in the Danville to Pleasanton region, we are mostly 35+/45+ cat 4 racers. We put our family and career responsibilities first, but have created a welcoming team atmosphere to support your competitive urges.
We set a goal of 25 members for 2010 and are currently at 17 confirmed members with a few more in play. So, there is still room for you if this seems like a good fit. Best way to do that is to check our website and join us for a training ride on Sunday. This Sunday, Oct 25, we will meet at Cyclepath of Pleasanton at 8:00 am to ride (I believe) Morgan Territory. You may also contact us through the website.
We are made up primarily of former members of East Bay Cyclists/InfoVista and new racers. We have a 5 race minimum, and you can see our planned races for 2010 at the website too. Many members also race track, mtn bike or 'cross, but our focus is on road racing.
Look for us on the road!
Ride on, Xeno

Veterans Broadcasting Network of American, Inc.
VBN is preparing a new information format we call "Coffee Corner". This program is replacing the Radio Show that has aired for almost 4 years. "Coffee Corner" will be aired, right here at vovradioshow.org, and eventually on YouTube, and via Podcast.
Our Mission is the same, however, we will reduce each show to ONE subject and reduce the time for discussion between 5 to10 minutes for each subject (just enough time to have a cup of coffee.) Our Webmaster is working diligently to make the necessary changes in this site to accomodate both "Coffee Corner" and articles written by VBN associates as well as articles carried in other print formats that we hope you will find informative and helpful when you are trying to make sense out of "What is Happening to America."
We will be announcing the start up of both of these new projects and ask that you join us and tell all your friends that you have found a place where you can get "straight" answers to question, without political bias. As in the past, our intent is to "Protect the Constitution of the United States", and to honor our Veterans who have sacrificed so much of their lives to protect our Freedoms.
May God Bless America!
Vernon Bagley
President & CEO
Veterans Broadcasting Network of America, Inc.

Last summer, Anne-Marie Slaughter rattled psyches with a manifesto in The Atlantic that described how the American workplace is inhospitable to high-powered working mothers. It was titled "Why Women Still Can't Have It All," and it struck a chord because it contained the ultimate spoiler alert: You can be a careerist, or you can be a present parent, but the world isn't designed to accommodate both.
Implicit in the headline is the suggestion that even though women don't have it all yet, well, we deserve to. This week, The Atlantic followed up with a story noting which male demographic "has it all." (Shocker: It's men with stay-at-home wives.)


text:
Kahn wouldn't comment specifically on the future of any given player, saying now is not the time, but said this summer is a time for all the young players to show how serious they are about their careers, like Kevin Love did last summer. But he added, "I'm a little patient than most." He refused to answer where Darko has played his last game and if the team will use its amnesty clause on him and wouldn't shed any light on what he thought Michael Beasley's future with the team is, or isn't. (That bold part really scares me.)
Does anybody watch "Survivor?" Does anyone else think one contestant bears a striking similarity to our very own POBO? His bio is at the link. They call him Cochran on the show. Woody Allen is the easy comparison, but he's a dead ringer for a young KAAAAAAAHHHHHHHNNNNN. He sounds like him. Same ethnic group. In Harvard Law, but not the guy you want handling your murder trial. Despite his apparent enthusiasm for the game, he doesn't appear to understand it. He even says, "I have a strong sense of humor that can defuse tense situations." Nope, hasn't been effective to this point. Yet while others are jettisoned, he's still there on the island. And 600 First Avenue is kind of an island.
30. David Kahn, Minnesota Timberwolves (last year: 26) STYLE: Mover and shaker. THE GOOD: He actually got Ricky Rubio to come over. THE BAD: There will be many more words in this feature, so I'll just save you the time. BOTTOM LINE: Not ranking Kahn last in last year's edition was far too kind. (A mover and shaker refers to someone who is always active around the draft and trade deadline and isn't afraid to use every roster avenue possible to improve his team.) *My apologies if someone has already posted this and I missed it.
Rambis's pre-game interview before the game with Houston last night was almost the equal of David Kahn's appearance earlier in the day. He had his chance to answer many of the same questions Kahn had tackled. (Their relationship? "Uhm... It's businesslike.") Definitely a must see for those waiting on one or more axes to fall. Pretty difficult watching, though.
Regarding recent rumors about Love and effing Kelvin Sampson... From article: 3) Don't doubt that someone may have told CBSSports.com that Kurt Rambis is in trouble in Minnesota. But if that's so, that stinks. For two years, the Wolves have done nothing but turn over their roster, bringing in younger and younger players, and asking Rambis and his staff to teach and live with all those Ls on their ledger. You don't win with young in this league; you win with talented veterans, and other than Kevin Love, the Wolves barely have enough talent to compete on a nightly basis. (Michael Beasley can score, no doubt, but his defense, like Love's, is, uh, a work in progress.) Lottery picks Jonny Flynn and Wes Johnson have been slowed by injuries, and the big man combo of Darko Milicic and Nikola Pekovic has been decidedly meh. "This team plays hard," Rambis said last week, "and they have moments where they play extremely well together at both ends of the floor. But they haven't connected it for 48 minutes. They allow teams to get on runs. Clearly we lack the composure and experience and savvy, and maybe in some extent, personnel, to finish out games when things are tight. You know, that veteran, calming influence." A team source insisted this weekend that it would take a major collapse down the stretch for management to even consider replacing Rambis, who got a four-year contract with the Wolves for that very reason -- to take a lot of losses while developing the team's young talent, including still-in-Europe Ricky Rubio. (The Wolves can buy out Rubio's contract in Spain next season for $500,000, with Rubio paying the remainder, and Minnesota still expects Rubio will come over next year, regardless of whether there's a lockout.) The Wolves have already won more games this season than last, with a month left in the season. Love, who clashed with Rambis last season, has seen that playing on a really bad team won't keep him from individual accolades like making the U.S. World Championship team last year and the All-Star team this year -- and as such, the source claims, Love isn't going anywhere when and if he becomes a free agent.
Wolves GM David Kahn says pregame that he thinks PG Flynn will be an All-Star one day— Jason Quick (@jwquick) January 8, 2011
From Jason Quick's twitter, before last night's game: "Wolves GM David Kahn says pregame that he thinks PG Flynn will be an All-Star one day" Either Kahn is a complete idiot, or he thinks everyone around him is a complete idiot. Neither scenario bodes well for his skills as a GM.
Much has been made about the man, the myth, the Kahn. People have talked about his crazy drafts: how he always seems to draft players at the same position. People have talked about his alleged...
It doesn't sound like Beastley harbors any ill will. I'm impressed by his attitude.
The Timberwolves wrote an open letter to their fans. Canis Hoopus imagines what the first draft might have looked like.
It's the off-season - and so it's time to write extended speeches for David Kahn that would EARN him that $50,000 fine.

The population of Nevada County is not unlike that of many rural Counties in that it is aging. Added to that, the fact that Americans are generally more active and living longer, it is easy to understand why the health services industry is steadily increasing in its percentage of the total workforce. To meet the demands of the forecast demographic shift to an aging and active citizenry, it is expected that this industry will continue to see growth well into the 21st Century. Within the County the largest private employers are the two major hospitals, with the Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital in Grass Valley approaching 1,000 employees, and the Tahoe Forest Hospital in Truckee about half that size.

KSP Highway Safety Branch News Release
Eleven Die On Kentucky Roadways Last Week (March 12 through March 18)
Date of News Release: 03/19/12
(Frankfort, Ky.) -- Preliminary statistics* indicate that eleven people died in five separate crashes on Kentucky roadways from Monday, March 12, through Sunday, March 18, 2012.
Eight of the fatalities involved motor vehicles and six victims were not wearing seat belts. Single-fatality crashes occurred in Breathitt, Daviess, Hopkins, Jefferson, Knox, Monroe, Pike and Warren counties. The crashes in Daviess and Monroe counties involved the suspected use of alcohol.
One motorcycle involved fatality occurred in Boone County and involved the suspected use of alcohol. The victim was not wearing a helmet.
Two pedestrian involved fatalities occurred in Jefferson and Taylor counties.
Through March 18, 2012, preliminary statistics* indicate that 130 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways during 2012. This is 4 less fatalities than reported for the same time period in 2011. There have been 114 motor vehicle fatalities and 67 of those victims were not wearing seat belts. Fifteen of those crashes involved a commercial motor vehicle. Four crashes involved a motorcycle and two victims were not wearing a helmet. Two crashes involved an ATV and one victim was not wearing a helmet. Ten crashes involved a pedestrian. Twenty-one deaths have resulted from crashes involving the suspected use of alcohol.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas. Crash data for this report is generated from the Kentucky Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS).

SELMA, Ala. (AP) - Organizers of Selma's annual Bridge Crossing Jubilee say Vice President Joe Biden and his wife, Jill Biden, will participate in the events.
Democratic state Sen. Hank Sanders of Selma said Saturday the Bidens will attend a unity brunch and participate in the annual crossing of the Edmund Pettus Bridge on March 3. Sanders said the Bidens will help observe Selma's historic role in the civil rights movement. The Bridge Crossing Jubilee celebrates the Selma-to-Montgomery voting rights march that led to passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act.
President Bill Clinton attended the event in 2000. The 2007 jubilee attracted then-presidential candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
The White House has confirmed that the Bidens will be traveling to Selma on March 3.

The Pacers look to finish strong on the road agasint the Lakers after a soft showing in the past three outings. Fatigue and altitude shouldn't be a problem since the Blue and Gold has been resting oceanside in L.A. for the past couple of days.
The Pacers have a strong recent history playing under the bright lights in L.A., as well. After taking 11 tries to beat to beat the Lakers at Staples Center, the Pacers have won their last three games when visiting the Lakers.
In fact, since getting that first win against the Lakers in the 2010-11 season, the Pacers are 5-1 overall at Staples, including a win over the Clippers earlier this season. The only loss was against the Clippers on Jan. 17, 2011.
Of course, with aging stars and injuries to Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash, the Lakers are glamorous in name only this year which is obvious after looking at their projected starting lineup. The Lakers may be energized by returning home after their own monster road trip which saw them go 2-7. Regardless, the Pacers desperately need to raise their level of play to return home on a positive note for a strong finish before the All-Star break.
For more on the Lakers, check out Silver Screen and Roll. Also, leave your thoughts and observations on the game in the comments.
