Sample segues
Examples of lines that can be used to redirect a conversation from Big Government to advancing liberty:
Your question may be of concern to some people in our (district/state), but in talking to voters in (town or area), what I've found is that they're much more concerned about (your proposal and benefits)…
That's an interesting question, but I'm running for office in order to (your proposal and benefits)…
That's interesting, but we need to get some perspective. Rome is burning. The US is at risk of becoming the next Greece or Cyprus. We need to immediately (your proposal and benefits)…
What you said assumes (BG assumption). But BG is actually making things worse. What we need is a small government solution to (your proposal and benefits)…
[If they ask more than one question:] I'll address your first question (your proposal and benefits)…
I'll have to think about that. What I can tell you now is (your proposal and benefits)…
That's a question that deserves some thought. I'll post a response at my campaign website (give URL) by this (name a time frame in which you are sure you can fulfill this promise). Meanwhile, what I can tell you is (your proposal and benefits)…
I don't know. But what I do know is (your proposal and benefits)…
Honestly, I don't think that's an issue we need to focus on right now. What is far more pressing is (problem, your proposal and its benefits)…
That's not my top issue and that's not why I'm running for office. I'm running in order to (your proposal and benefits)…
What [voters / parents / taxpayers / teachers, etc.] tell me is (your proposal and benefits)…
That's an issue my opponents like to talk about, but they're not really interested in (alleged concern). Rather, they're using it to distract voters from the fact that they are massively overspending, diminishing our freedoms, and making our streets unsafe. Instead, we need to (your proposal and benefits)…
That question is a manipulation that serves to mislead voters (explain why quickly). I'm running for office to undo the damage being done by (area of Big Government) and to give voters a choice for (your proposal and benefits)…
All I know is this (your proposal and benefits)…
I'm sorry, but that is not the burning question of the day. What voters really want and need is (your proposal and benefits)…

The customer service here is superb. The two associates were amazing and I want to thank them for have a pleasant attitude!Sharon from Chicago, IL
Sara and Lawrence were great. I have used other storage companies before and none compare to Uncle Bobs. Anything I needed was taken care of right away. I was extremely happy with my experience with Uncle Bobs.Valdemar from Oak Forest, IL
Neat. Clean. Liked the scheduled security walk-through to inspect property. Video surveillance. The reason for the lower score on being greeted promptly was due to employee being out on scheduled security inspection. Sign noting this was on the door.Mark from Lindenhurst, IL
I was very impressed with the level of service as well as the facility. I was greeted immediately when I walked in and the sale associate was so helpful and prompt. I am moving and needed to store some books and am very happy to have been recommended your facility by a friend. When moving my belongings into storage my brother even commented how clean and secure the facility was. When I was shown around my sales associate even knew the names of people who were moving materials into storage units which provided a very friendly atmosphere. I left thinking what great customer service skills she had. Would highly recommend to anyone!Meaghan from Gardena, CA
The team at Uncle Bob's (#432) are great! We sold our condo but the home that we were going to purchase failed the home inspection so we were scrambling to find a bigger storage space AND a place to live in 3 days. The team at store 432 were on top of things and they made a chaotic situation less stressful.Yu-Wen from Evanston, IL
Uncle Bob's is the gold standard for storage units. All storage places should be this good!Elizabeth from Boise, ID
Great service , Tracy made renting a unit a fun experience.. And I hate renting.Zack from Chicago, IL
Keep up the professional service, discounts, and great locations.Angela from Aurora, IL
I was impressed with the security of your units. The manager was very kind and helpful. We would use you againPatricia from Missoula, MT
Very satisfied as I was told about Uncle Bob's tru a co-worker who said service & price was right.Susan from Aurora, IL

Vegan Ballpark Bites Around the US
Celebrate baseball season with these cruelty-free concessions, guaranteeing snack-time homeruns.
For diehard baseball fans, April doesn't mean pulling pranks or planting trees on Earth Day. No, for true devotees of America's favorite pastime, April signals that baseball season has officially begun, and it's time to play ball. While benchmark ballpark munchies such as hot dogs and nachos are not traditionally vegan friendly, a host of cruelty-free alternatives are popping up at stadium concession stands across the country. Prefer to watch the game from the comforts of home? Quell snack attacks by turning your coffee table into a buffet of meat-free treats and refreshments.
How It All Vegan
Some stadium staples, such as peanuts, pretzels, and Cracker Jacks, may be accidentally vegan, but this doesn't hold true for most classic baseball snacks. Fortunately, stadiums across the country are adding meat-free dogs to their menus, in large part due to the efforts of Veggie Happy Founder Johanna McCloy. In 2001, McCloy became frustrated with the lack of vegetarian options she had to choose from at baseball games and petitioned the concession manager for more meat-free options. This led McCloy to found Soy Happy, an organization that encourages vegetarian menu options at stadiums and entertainment venues across the country. The group maintains a comprehensive list of vegan and vegetarian options available at every stadium in the country. In 2012, 21 staudiums around the country celebrated opening day with cruelty-free fare.
Franks and Beers
Nothing makes a better snack during the seventh inning stretch than a dressed-up veggie dog washed down with a tall, cool glass of vegan beer. After verifying whether or not the veggie dogs at your local stadium are vegan, choose any of the crisp, refreshing, and vegan-approved brews from Budweiser, Coors, Corona, or Miller. Think you're ready to cash out? Not even close! Even better than ordering a cruelty-free frank is loading it up with all your favorite fixings. After requesting the usual toppings such as onions and pickles, pile your dog high with vegan-friendly classic condiments, including Heinz Tomato Ketchup, French's Classic Yellow Mustard, and Vlasic HomeStyle Relish.
Home(run) Hoopla
If you're planning to host a homerun party, you can be a little bit more creative with your refreshment selection. To get the party started, pick up a case or two of New Belgium or Blue Moon Rising Moon spring ale, which are generally not offered at major league events. Then, show friends and fellow fans how ball-game buffets are really done. Fire up the grill and throw on festive meatless franks and brats made by Lightlife, Yves Veggie Cuisine, Tofurky, or Field Roast. Since you're literally in your own backyard, decorate dogs with healthier dressings, such as Organicville Organic Ketchup and Yellow Mustard. Next, simulate ballpark nachos by melting Teese Nacho Cheese Sauce or Food For Lovers Vegan Queso over crispy, crunchy tortilla chips. To cap off the big-league meal, serve Charms Fluffy Stuff Cotton Candy or Bernod's Spun City Organic Cherry Vanilla Cotton Candy for dessert.

Horner open to double points for last three race
2014 F1 season
Red Bull team principal Christian Horner says extending the unpopular double points plan to three races instead of one could make it less of a lottery.
Asked whether the sport's determination to introduce a rule which an overwhelming majority of fans oppose Horner said: "I think of course the fans' opinions matter and I think that I don't think it's any secret that I wasn't particularly in favour of it."
"I can understand why the governing body and the promoter are keen to keep the championship alive until the last race but two out of the last four years it's gone to the last race under the previous points scoring system."
Bernie Ecclestone originally proposed to offer double points at the last three races of the year, after Sebastian Vettel on last year's championship with three races to spare. Horner suggested that might be a better solution.
"It would probably be better to, rather than look at just the last race, if you're going to end up dealing with the points, is look at more than one race. Look at three races, maybe take away an element of lottery over that last race.
"But it is what it is, it's the same for everybody as we stand here and that's what we've got."

Hey all, join me for a fun, functional floor flow style practice complete with your fair serving of yoga fun! When we think to flow it means we become very compliant with cohesively sinking our breath to our movement, so come join me in a liberating flow that will leave you feeling amazing. Namaste!
An intense, yet liberating chest opening experience, grab your foam roller or yoga blocks to aid in proper shoulder positioning and let's get ready to tone and open every inch of our unique body's.
To begin:
1. Sitting with your foam roller behind you, place your palms on the foam roller slightly wider than your shoulders with your fingers facing you (unless shoulder/ scapulae issues).
2. Plant your feet hips width with a possible block between the thighs or mini ball to help with pelvic-core recruitment.
3. Bend your elbows and with a deep exhale lift the hips, being mindful to engage your inner thighs and pelvic core rather than death squeezing your glutes (they will contract, but they are not the only muscles).
4. Let your elbows be the last thing to extend, but keep them bent if you have very tight shoulders. Feel the lift of your chest and either extend your head back reaching through your chin or keep your chin tucked, both offer a neck release (do not extend the head back with vision issues or nerve issues).
5. Try to hold this pose for five to ten breaths and repeat 1 to 3 more times.
This pose is a great release, challenge for the wrists, stretch for the forearms and upper arms, opener for the shoulders as well as a toner for the legs and core!
Rock on and have fun!
Stability trumps mobility and when you combine that with deep core activation you get tons of fun! Grab your gilders, paper plates or towels for ease of sliding and get ready to rock your core!
This is my functional tribute to my fourth grade gym class when we did mountain climbers, back then a crazy step forward, step back movement where my hips were all over the place, this version is a bit more stable and a lot more core involved.
Let's get started!
1. Start in Plank with your props placed under the balls of your feet.
2. Contract continuously your pelvic core (pelvic floor + core muscles)
3. Keep your wrists under your shoulders and do not hike your hips but rather sneak your knee under your torso and then tuck it up tightly to your chest.
4. Exhale to slide the leg under the body and then at the last second tuck it extra tight and inhale mindfully and skillfully return it back to Plank.
5. Work to not move too quick at first as that is not the point, but rather to ensure you can feel your core tell your legs to move.
6. Try for 30 seconds to one minute of consistent leg strides and see how it goes.
7. Be mindful not to get sloppy, saggy hips or head, hiking your hips up and you tuck your leg under.
Ready, get set…. GO!
TIP: If you notice your lower back or hip flexors flairing you know your are probably not keeping stability or using your hip flexors for stability rather than your deep core!
We all do it... In yoga that is...
We all do it, in yoga that is, transitioning from downward facing dog to runners lunge; the only problem is how the hell do I get my foot between my hands?
To be honest, no one ever told me either, they just said to do it and so I did, and when I first started teaching I too just told my students to do it and yep they struggle and I just kept telling them it will get better in time and for the most part it really did; except for those few that really needed more detail on how to actually transition.
This transition is a transition of core work combine with flexibility, but also the right understanding of how to move from point A to point B. When looking at the cliff notes picture below take note from the foot to the hand and practice your transition. Speed is not the issue and usually will only make things more complicated. If your teacher doesn't ever slow things down for the people in the room who need more help in fear their flow may be ruined, then I want to encourage you to practice at home and then go and WOW your teacher at class when you finally get it (or if you are a teacher slow down, your students will appreciate it and feel the difference).
And one more thing, don't forget that this transition is a core move, so work to engage your pelvic floor (really important) as well as your deep transversus (it will feel like your belly) as you roll your body forward, rather than stiffly like a board move your body forward. Remember make room for your leg to come forward as you slide along.
This can be a move in itself and I often use it as that in the event of practicing such a transition for a better Sun Sal or whatever we are doing at the time. I like to rock this ten times on each side to really feel the difference!
So off you go, ready, get set, rock your core!
Want to make more sense of your Sun Salutation? Are you ready to overhaul that ancient flow and update it to a more functional, modern body movement system? Join me and honor your joints and spine as we awaken our core with each move. Don't be surprised if you notice new breathing patterns and transitions in and out of each pose.
Have Fun!!
Flat Back….But My Back Isn't Flat….Or is It?
"Exhale flat back fold forward" or "wide arms flat back rise up" are common cure in the fitness industry and one deceptive and very misleading on many levels. A cue I teach all my teacher trainers not to use and for many reasons.
We don't have a flat spine, and why would you ever imply such a possibility? Our spine is curvy, and has four curves to be exact; curves that have been strategically placed in our body for several viable reasons. First, being they help with impact, without them jumping and landing would kill our disc, vertebrae and giggle our head right off our bodies. They assist in shock absorption, ever jump on a bed, the springs allow the sock to be absorbed, now imagine a bed with nails and take jump, ouch is right.
The curves help our organs stack properly and create pockets for larger organs to sit and push other organs into position. Those much needed curves should be cued properly rather than ignorantly overlooked. Nothing against any form of exercise or any one training, but lack of real knowledge of the body and a mimicking of one teacher to the next on top of never really understanding the body, instead mirroring movements, leads us to cues like the one above. Another cue in disrespect to the spine which I hear quite often is "press your back into the floor", like a loss of our lumbar curve isn't already an issue, lack of proper back muscle and misuse of hip flexors, especially in core work needs more encouragement, stacked right on top of our eight to twelve hours a day we sit in ill supporting chairs, couches and even on fitness equipment, isn't a cause for concern.
A quick review:
· We have 33 interlocking bones that make up the vertebrae, the top 24 are moveable and the lower nine are fused together.
· Our cervical column (or neck) has seven vertebrae (C1-C7), and the neck is unique because the top two vertebrae allow the head to nod, due to the fact that C1 and C2 are like a peg in a round hole, allowing the head to look in most all directions.
· The thoracic column in the mid torso/chest region, spanning 12 vertebrae (T1-T12), here the spine helps hold the rib cage in place to protect the heart and lungs, there is limited mobility for a very good reason here.
· Our lumbar region spans five vertebrae (L1-L5) and its main function is to bear weight, the vertebrae are larger in size allowing them to carry more weight and deal with heavier loads as needed.
· The main function of our 5 fused sacral bones called the sacrum, is to connect the spine to the iliac or hip bones, this is a fused area, and together the iliac and sacrum create one oscillating ring called the pelvis.
· Finally our coccyx, which is made up of four fused bones creating a place for ligaments and muscles to attach to, helping to create the pelvic floor.
· Keeping in mind that when our spine curves one way it then curves back the other to help support the body with gravity and every day movement's.
So if you are a teacher and are reading this, ask yourself "why are you using such cues"? "What are you trying to imply or convey to your students"? What if simply by learning better cueing you could end the misleading guidance and offer more functionally based cueing? And then you say to me as you read this, "but my students get what I'm saying, or I don't really mean flatten your spine". So then why are you saying it? Why even suggest such a possibility, why not take a stand and educate your class and use cues that reinforce just that. The goal of every fitness class is to live a better life, is to feel better, number one hands down. But if it's just uneducated cues, fun choreography and feel the burn moves, your students are not gaining much more than what they started with and among all of that the spine surely suffers.
So what do I do?
Learn neutral, from the ground up, start with the feet and learn proper placement of the pelvis, ribcage, shoulders, base of the skull, chin, and head.
Change your language, throw to the wolves cues like: flat back, navel to spine, press your back into the floor, straight spine; and trade them in for things: like elongate your spine, find or keep neutral, extend, make space in your vertebrae, honor the curves of your spine.
Try rolling down into forward fold or at a minimum making sure the deep pelvic-core is turned on and if your mind will allow it bend your knees so the back has a fighting chance.
Experiment with things like rolling up in the spine using your inner core power or what I like to call core pump, where the core is used like a trampoline and the spine can float up from the rebounding of the deep core.
Reflect on the poor postures of society and question if your teachings or practice is feeding into those issues, or helping to lessen them.
Learn about the spine, on a very basic level there is not much too it:
· 4 curves
· 33 vertebrae, broken into several sections: cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, coccyx
· The disc are much like jelly donuts between each vertebrae that should not be abused continuously in only one direction, but rather brought to more space and moved in all directions mindfully.
· Just because our spine goes there doesn't mean it belongs there. Many peoples alignment is skewed, meaning it's out of balance, learn how to recognize these imbalances by observing people walk, stand, sit, and yes exercise.
· And once people learn neutral their ability to move in and out of neutral will be more balanced and supportive.
· When our spine is out of alignment the shock absorption abilities of it are reduced, and pain is most likely a result.
These tips are just a starting block to better spinal health and better spinal cueing for a lifelong success of health and happiness and you are only as healthy as your spine is (healthy, flexible, stable, supportive take your pick).
Join me for a new version of flex ion and extension, one that does not involve killing your spine and avoiding your tight hips. I welcome you to feel space, freedom and flexibility they way every body is intended too! And when we incorporate our deep core muscles it becomes a killer total body boost!
Here's the skinny!
-Plane of Motion: Sagittal
-Keep the pelvic floor strong
-Move from the hips not from the mid body, we do this when we do not have the transversus abdominis strength to stabilize.
-when moving forward draw the ribs up and in and keep the ASIS landmarks tipped up and in (this will keep you in neutral)
-When moving into extension make sure the hip socket of the back leg is leading not the mid belly, when the hips are tight we usually back bend only in the spine. This is not good; we will end up with too much compression in our vertebrae, wearing down the disc and joints. Shorten up the stride so the movement can be achieved.
-To have more assistance in the extension use the same arm as the back leg to rotate the hip forward when you back bend to help emphasize the hip leading forward and the spine will naturally follow.
-To have more assistance in the forward reach use the same arm as the front leg and draw your hip back as you reach forward, making sure you keep the front keep stable.
-Work with this movement up to 10 times on each side, go back and work the weaker or tighter side with the 2:1 ratio.
Shoulders hurt, neck tight, headache, jaw pain. You are not alone, we exercise and work out and even in the yoga community many have forgotten about release as a major part of healthy and harmony in the body. Join Hope for a detailed step by step 25 min yoga session dedicated solely to the neck and shoulders, stretched the right way. Sit in a chair, on the floor or combine them into yoga postures. Today is the day you start to feel better!
Join Hope Zvara for a great 15 min Plank-it series focusing on 360 degrees core based moves and toned arms. Hope focuses on functional movement and is known for her detail guided instruction for a sure kick butt practice no matter what!
You've probably felt crippling pain in your heel or arch and a common culprit is plantar fasciitis (PLAN-ter fash-ee-EYE-tus). It's an irritation of the plantar tendon, a clustering of microscopic tears at the cellular level causing tenderness and discomfort when you walk or strike your foot or heel to the ground.
It's estimated that this condition affects over 2 million Americans every year and 10% of Americans will experience plantar fasciitis at some point in their lives.
Where is the plantar tendon?
The plantar tendon is located on the center of the bottom of the foot, attaching the heel to the toes, and the plantar fascia covers the bottom of the foot. Fascia is the netting that covers every muscle and every fiber of every muscle, and can often restrict proper muscle, ligament, tendon or connective tissue function.
What causes this kind of foot pain?
More common causes are:
So what I'm saying is: if your hips are tight, your feet will react, and if your feet are tight, your hips will react, and in the middle are our poor knees ... do you see where I'm going with this?

One of this season's biggest trends on the catwalk was the floaty, feminine look. Incorporated into skirts, dresses, tops and cover ups, this ultra wearable look is set to dominate summer 2010. One of its appeals, no doubt, is that it taps into the little girl that still lives and breathes in every one of us and takes us back to a more innocent age - the age of dressing up as princesses and dreaming of growing up to be a beautiful ballerina.
Of course not all young girls aspire to such feminine things, but those who do will be delighted to see that our designers here at New Look have translated the uber feminine summer trend into a range of adorable kids wear, in ranges for girls 2-6 and 7-10. If floaty and floral is one of your favourite summer looks, chances are your little girl already has her eye on some of your own seasonal acquisitions.
Some of the best interpretations for the kids' clothes market come in the form of skirts. For example, the bow bell tulip skirt is a soft pale pink with a modern but a feminine edge. Many of us have enjoyed wearing the tulip style skirt over the past few months. Why shouldn't our daughters try out the trend too?
Another great skirt for girls 2-6 is the layered denim skirt, which, rather conveniently, comes as a set with a funky pair of hot pink leggings.
For the ultimate in frivolous girly dressing, nothing beats the ballerina pink layered tulle tutu skirt.

Pat and John Rooney / Twin's familiar lookAugust 25, 2013 4:00 AM
Share with others:
This is part of "Remembering Art Rooney Sr.: A Father's Heirlooms Still Cherished." Click on headline to see complete story.
Pat and John Rooney haven't lived in Western Pennsylvania since they were 24 years old. They're largely unknown here, but, at 74, they're physically about the closest thing to the Chief as there is.
They've each got a healthy head of hair, just like their father, and they're proud of it.
On the day of the family draft in '88, Pat didn't want to take any of his father's heirlooms, but he wouldn't come away empty-handed either.
After the funeral weeks earlier, he had gone up to the Chief's bathroom on the second floor and found two hairbrushes. They were wooden and oval-shaped, the varnish coming off. Pat had given them to his father for Christmas when he was 10 or 11 years old, and the old man still had them. Pat happily took the brushes back to Florida.
Today, they can be found in Pat's bathroom. He uses them often -- further proof that the most valuable pieces aren't always the ones chosen on draft day.
• • •
For his sons, the image of Art Rooney Sr. brushing lanolin cream into his hair is right up there with him smoking a cigar or saying the rosary. The act happened so often it became ritual.
"The only degree of vanity I ever saw him have was that," Pat says. "He was trying to keep his hair."
John and Pat were asked to run the Liberty Bell racetrack near Philadelphia. After the family sold it, Pat went to Florida to run the Palm Beach Kennel Club. John would transition into running the family's oil and gas interests out of Louisiana.
As a boy, Pat once gave his father a set of hairbrushes for Christmas. After Art Sr.'s death, Pat reclaimed them and uses them often.
There was no doubt that the Chief became more vain as he aged, his legend growing with each Super Bowl win. People out there -- reporters, photographers, TV cameramen -- were always looking for him.
"He was at a funeral for some big shot," Art Jr. says, "and they panned the crowd. Later that day, we went and had dinner. They had a TV on top of the refrigerator, and he said, 'Hey, here I am again!' I said, 'My God, he's a ham!' "
Art Sr. always looked neat, his shoes shiny. Appearances mattered, and that applied to his sons.
In the '60s, Tim would go to work in Pittsburgh and hope that nobody mentioned the Steelers in the elevator. By the '80s, he'd walk into a meeting in New York and feel like everybody was staring at him.
"They look at you different than they would other people for some crazy reason," Tim says. "You run into the situation an awful lot of times."
Since they were boys, the Chief had taught them not to be "big shots." It's the reason he drove a Buick all those years. When John bought a Lincoln in the early '70s, his father scolded him. When Tim bought a Rolls-Royce, he kept it hidden from the Chief on several of his visits east. Finally, when Tim revealed it to him, Art Sr. was OK with it, especially after he'd been taken for a ride.
His vanity, though, was mostly focused on the hair. One day at Three Rivers, the Chief approached Art Jr. in front of a group of people, noticed his son was losing some hair in back and said, "I thought you'd never go bald! You're going bald!"
Art Jr. didn't know what to say. It certainly didn't make him feel very good.Steelers

thisisalli This place is a hidden little haven. The owners and staff are all extremely helpful and friendly, and never mind having a small (or long) chat with you. You get free fresh sheets and towels every morning, as well as a free breakfast that goes beyond the typical toast of most hostels. You are a few minutes walk from multiple beaches and a bus stop that takes you into the city. They also have a lovely clean pool and a little bar. The only downside was that there's no guest kitchen you could use (for budgeted backpackers like myself). However the staff acomodated us very well and let us store a few little sandwich supplies in their fridge so we could save on eating out every lunch and dinner. Also, we didn't find so many young folk here, although this could also have been because it wasn't the season for it. I strongly recommend this place. You will feel like you are at a five star resort, you are treated like royalty, but you pay like you're still at a hostel.

otmar.herrmann Located close to the heart of Palma, the historic city, well reachable from Airport by public bus in 25 Min (due to traffic in Palma), a very nice hostel. With very sympathetic and friendly reception desk. The rooms are very clean, all installation in a good condition, not luxury but functionally. Regards Otmar
freya_86 Hotel is tottaly GREAT!!!! I recommend it with closed eyes! It is really clean, the stuff totally helpfull and kind. The location is great 50m from the beach (although the sea was not so clean). The only advice watch out of the drunk people! enjoy your staying
starrynight Antoine, the manager and his assistant were very friendly, very helpful: Antoine gave me tips on visiting Palma in a few hours, and allowed me to leave my suitcase in his office while I was visiting the city, before taking my plane. The area is definitely not what I was expecting, it looks like a ghost summer town, and the tourists population is mainly constituded of german retirees. But that means that you get the whole beach to yourself!!!

The Pistons and restricted free agent Greg Monroe (10) remain in a holding pattern. (Clarence Tabb Jr. / Detroit News)
Orlando, Florida � The biggest domino for the Pistons is nowhere near the biggest piece for the NBA, so Stan Van Gundy knows Greg Monroe�s restricted free agency will take a backseat to some of the game�s bigger business.
Waiting on LeBron James, Chris Bosh and Carmelo Anthony to decide their destinations has kept the speculation wheel moving along, but the actual team-building has nearly slowed to a crawl in most places � the Pistons� addition of Aaron Gray notwithstanding.
�It�s pretty much that�s how it always goes,� the Pistons president and coach said in a media scrum Tuesday at Amway Arena. �There�s things you end up waiting on in this process. Certain chips have to fall first.�
Van Gundy made Monroe his first visit after landing the Pistons� all-everything title and despite words that could be interpreted as ambiguous concerning Monroe, he attempted to make it clear the Pistons� intention is to keep him.
�I�m not hesitant at all. We want Greg Monroe back. But it�s got to be a mutual thing, too,� said Van Gundy, perhaps leaving the door open for other interpretations.
�There�s no hesitation there. From Day 1, Greg can tell you, he�s the first player I met with within the first few days of getting the job. We made it clear we want him back.�
It�s clear the Pistons and Monroe are in a holding pattern, and it can be for numerous reasons. Monroe could wait on the market to truly open up, so the plethora of teams with money to burn can begin to actively recruit the 24-year-old big man � after the pipe dream of landing James or Anthony falls to the wayside.
Conceivably, Monroe could be wooed by the likes of the Los Angeles Lakers, and considering that restricted free agency generally happens only once, he�ll weigh his options and the Pistons will have to be comfortable with that.
Of course, the Pistons could present Monroe with a max contract offer and perhaps shut the show down, but it�s likely they don�t want to pay him a dime more than another suitor would be willing to offer.
When directly asked if the Pistons would match any offer sheet for Monroe, the Pistons czar played coy � as he has in other situations that call for a �yes� or �no� answer.
�I�m not to go into the business side of things and I�m certainly not going to help other teams in terms of helping build their strategy,� Van Gundy said. �Greg is a very important piece to the puzzle and we want him back. We�ll see what happens in the next weeks, months, whatever it takes.
�We�re still in talks with Greg. I don�t know what else to say on that. We talk on a regular basis. There�s so many things that can happen with a restricted free agent. We want to get something that�s good for both sides.�
There�s always the possibility Monroe doesn�t want to come back, although he hasn�t given any outward indication of such, and there�s growing thought around the league he could take the one-year qualifying offer of $5.4 million just to hit unrestricted free agency next summer. But it would be difficult to recoup that cash.
He could have doubts about where he fits in the larger puzzle, with Andre Drummond emerging as the center of the future, Josh Smith still on the roster and Van Gundy�s previous preference of using one big man and spreading the floor with shooters � which everyone knows Monroe is not.
�There�s been a lot of back-and-forth and it�s been good,� Van Gundy said. �There�s no doubt on my part or our part on the basketball side we want him back.�
But Van Gundy also alluded to an order of doing things, an order that�s essentially determined by NBA rules. With the Pistons� cap space whittling thanks to agreeing to terms with Jodie Meeks, Cartier Martin and Gray, it would behoove the Pistons to wait to sign Monroe because they can exceed the salary cap to keep him, if it came to that.
�You always deal with people and there�s certainly an order to get things done,� Van Gundy said. �The main goal is to eventually get to an agreement.�
And there�s also the possibility the Pistons could keep their remaining cap space after dealing with Monroe, in order to facilitate trades in the regular season.
�There�s a lot of ways you can go with that,� Van Gundy said. �You can go all in on one guy, split it up or have flexibility for trades down the line. It�s a lot about who you can make a play on that determines where you want to go.�

Recent Ruidoso Reviews
Girls Getaway
House is beautiful. The back yard is too beautiful. I hate that we couldn't use the fire pit due to fire risks. The house was clean and so was the yard. I would use this house again if I rented the same places, but I like to rent different cabins so we can get to know Ruidoso better. The only thing that disappointed us was that the A/C didn't work in the separate bedroom and it was hot. The toilet paper was not enough (which is fine cause we didn't mind buying it) but it was stated that it was provided. The trash bags were not available either and it said it was provided also. We don't mind buying that stuff. I would recommend it to others. It is a beautiful place.
Really nice place
We had a very nice time and really enjoyed our visit and this house. Location is great, very convenient. It is comfortable and had everything we needed. Love the fire pit, used it every night. The hot tub was a nice break, and it was clean. I've rented houses before and had to have the hot tub cleaned. The rugs were clean, the rooms were clean. My son and his and friends enjoyed having their own space downstairs, like their own apartment. Deer every day, sometimes twice a day. Kitchen has more than enough pots, pans; beds are firm but comfortable. Plenty of blankets and pillows. I cant think of what to say except everything was perfect. Owners are very easy to work with, responded quickly to everything. I highly recommend this home.
Great stay!
Our family enjoyed our Christmas vacation here. It had ample parking (we had 5 vehicles). Beautiful view from the deck. Well stocked kitchen, even had a crock-pot! 1st floor had twins then go up a spiral staircase (not small child friendly) to 2nd floor with a large room (with a queen) & 2 large closets, then up a ladder to the 3rd floor with a queen bed. Beds were all a little firm for our liking, but served the purpose. Overall beautiful home and we all enjoyed ourselves. My boys (4&2) enjoyed exploring the house and playing there.

Cuonzo's greatest challenge
Cuonzo Martin's greatest challenge has nothing to do with its next opponent, substitution patterns or a lack of consistency.
The head basketball coach at Tennessee doesn't need to overly concern himself with late-game strategy, untimely timeouts or in-bounds schematics.
Sure, those are important problems plaguing UT's team. However, there is much more at play with the Vols. For whatever reason, Martin's players aren't responding to him. Or they aren't responding to each other. Perhaps both.
The Vols would have left Missouri with a win on Saturday had they continued the game plan that worked so well for them in the majority of the game. Forward Jarnell Stokes was a presence underneath for the Vols against the Tigers throughout the first half and early in the second.
Moreover, Missouri's front line found itself in serious foul trouble in the second half of UT's 75-70 loss to Mizzou. The way to win was simple. Stokes. Stokes. Stokes. Then a little more Stokes. Victory was there for the Vols' taking.
It's not unusual for college athletes to forgo a game plan, either accidentally or on purpose. Freelancing is a part of college basketball despite how strongly coaches preach against it. However, it's unusual for a lack of discipline to be a recurring theme. Ultimately, players should follow their coaches' lead.
Take for instance Martin's Monday press conference. Repeatedly, Martin said he had told his players to do the very things they failed to execute in the most meaningful moments against Missouri. Stokes needs to demand the ball. Guard Antonio Barton needs to take more shots. Feed the ball inside. The lack of communication is readily apparent.
It almost seemed as if Martin was passing the blame. If not, he was at least grasping at straws.
This is nothing new. The frustration was obvious a week ago when Florida pulled away late. UT's basketball team, still within striking distance, had the body language of a jilted boyfriend. It happened again when Stokes either didn't demand the ball or wasn't offered it readily enough on Saturday in another loss.
Stokes' post-game interview was brutal. Sports writers repeatedly asked him about not having the ball late in the game. He had few answers other than "I don't know," a phrase he uttered more times than he shot. him might have been to blame for his disappearance.
Credit Stokes with being a team-first player. He wasn't going to rip his teammates or coaches, even though someone other than he might have been to blame for his disappearance.
Actually, it's hard to figure out who's to blame. I'm certainly not blaming Martin. Honestly, I'm not sure where the blame lies. Are players not listening? Have the coaches not been as focused on disciplined play as they should have been? Blaming Martin and his coaching staff seems a bit too easy to me. Players at this age must have the maturity to follow their coaches' lead. This isn't high school. Freelancing equals three straight seasons without an NCAA bid.
There's little time to right the ship. Actually it might already be too late. If a player isn't following instructions in November or December, a coach can bench him to prove a point. One loss may lead to a more disciplined approach and, subsequently, more wins in February and March. However, when a team is 15-10, it's hard to take a stand unless you're comfortable with another NIT bid.
It's hard to come up with a reason why the Vols can win six straight games and keep their NCAA Tournament hopes alive. UT has only won four consecutive games this season. UT's longest winning streak this year is a mere four games. And it certainly wasn't a historical one as wins came against Morehead State, Virginia, Tusculum and LSU.
Not exactly reason enough to rename a street. Perhaps a Cuonzo curb?
The Vols don't necessarily have to win out to reach the tournament. Winning five games in the regular season and a decent showing in the SEC Tournament could still get them in the dance.
There's a game plan for the Vols to make March fun. Have faith in each other, follow your coaches' instructions and improve team chemistry within the locker room. I'd rather draw up a pick-and-roll.
Former Vol guard Cameron Tatum told Steve Phillips that he didn't believe there was a chemistry issue nor a lack of faith in the coaches after talking to current players. The comments came during an interview on Tennessee Sports Radio.
Perhaps Tatum really was told that and believes it. Perhaps the Vols are super chummy and have total faith in their coaches. Perhaps the players didn't want to air dirty laundry.
My guess is that players are saying what they want to believe. My guess is that they know this season could continue to head south faster than a snowbird in November. Whatever the truth is, we won't likely know until after the season. Whether that comes on the heels of an NIT or NCAA bid will be determined very soon. Perhaps too soon for the Vols to make their fans happy.

Legendary hacker and security reacher Charlie Miller is set to begin work with the security team at Twitter.
Miller said in a Friday Tweet that starting Monday he would be working with the security team at the Microblogging service. Miller made no mention of how long or in what capacity he would be working with the company.
Monday I start on the security team at Twitter.Looking forward to working with a great team there!— Charlie Miller (@0xcharlie) September 14, 2012
A legend among the hacking and security research communities, Miller has become a favourite presenter at the Black Hat conference. He specialises in extensive investigations into the fundamental security structure and potential security vulnerabilities in platforms such as NFC hardware and notebook battery packs.
Miller has also conducted extensive research into Apple's OS X and iOS platforms, work which led to the company blacklisting Miller from its developer programme.
The hiring makes Miller the latest high-profile security researcher to join a major firm. McAfee last year brought researcher Barnaby Jack into its ranks, while Peiter 'Mudge' Zatko is heading up an effort at DARPA to enlist hackers for security projects.
Twitter's security protections were called into question earlier this summer when the site suffered a prolonged outage. Though a group of hackers initially claimed to have caused the outage with a DDoS attack, the company ultimately said that the outage was the result of a datacentre crash.
Shaun Nichols is the US correspondent for V3.co.uk. He has been with the company since 2006, originally joining as a news intern at the site's San Francisco offices.

United Congregational Church of Holyoke (Holyoke, Mass.)
United Congregational Church of Holyoke (Holyoke, Mass.) Records, ca.1830-1990.
Call no.: MS 787
The present day United Congregational Church of Holyoke is the product of complex history of growth and consolidation of five separate churches responding to the changing demographics and spiritual needs of the city. Established in 1799, the First Congregational Church in Holyoke was initially a small congregation perched above the floodplain south of the center of town, sharing preachers with the equally sparse population of Baptists until the establishment of the First Baptist Church in 1826. The First Congregational Church was finally erected in 1838, and ten years later, the Second Church was established in to serve the needs of the growing Protestant population in the city center, building their own church in 1853 as the mill economy was booming. Reaching out to the millworkers, members of the Second Church opened the Grace Mission in 1870, which spun off into its own church in 1896. Skinner Chapel was founded in 1909 as an addition to the Second Congregational Church, dedicated to the prominent Skinner family. Finally, the German Reformed Church was organized in 1892, though meetings were held years earlier. In the latter part of the twentieth century, however, declining memberships in each of these churches led to a series of mergers, beginning in 1961 when the German Reformed Church united with the First Congregational to become the First United Congregational Church. Grace Church and the First UCC merged in 1973 to become Grace United, and in 1996, Grace joined with the Second Congregational Church to become the present UCC of Holyoke.
The records of the UCC of Holyoke document over 200 years of the ecclesiatical history of an industrial city. In addition to records of membership, baptisms, marriages, and church governance, the collection includes valuable records of the women's missionary society, the German Maenner Bund, and a long run of church newsletters that offer insight into the weekly course of events in the religious community. Materials relating to Skinner Chapel are part of the collections of Wistariahurst Museum.

Brinley Family
Brinley Family Papers, 1643-1950.
Call no.: MS 161
A prosperous family of merchants and landowners, the Brinleys were well ensconced among the social and political elite of colonial New England. Connected by marriage to other elite families in Rhode Island and Massachusetts — the Auchmutys, Craddocks, and Tyngs among them — the Brinleys were refined, highly educated, public spirited, and most often business-minded. Although many members of the family remained loyal to the British cause during the Revolution, the family retained their high social standing in the years following.
The Brinley collection includes business letters, legal and business records, wills, a fragment of a diary, documents relating to slaves, newspaper clippings, and a small number of paintings and artifacts. A descendent, Nancy Brinley, contributed a quantity of genealogical research notes and photocopies of Brinley family documents from other repositories. Of particular note in the collection is a fine nineteenth century copy of a John Smibert portrait of Deborah Brinley (1719), an elegant silver tray passed through the generations, and is a 1713 list of the library of Francis Brinley, which offers a foreshadowing of the remarkable book collection put together in the later nineteenth century by his descendant George Brinley.

Francis, Robert, 1901-1987
Robert Francis Papers, 1891-1988.
Call no.: MS 403
The poet and essayist Robert Francis settled in Amherst, Mass., in 1926, three years after his graduation from Harvard, and created a literary life that stretched for the better part of half a century. An associate of Robert Frost and friend of many other writers, Francis occasionally worked as a teacher or lecturer, including a brief stint on the faculty at Mount Holyoke College, but he sustained himself largely through his writing, living simply in "Fort Juniper," a cottage he built on Market Hill Road in North Amherst. A recipient of the Shelley Award (1939) and the Academy of American Poets award for distinguished poetic achievement (1984), Francis was a poet in residence at both Tufts (1955) and Harvard (1960) Universities. He died in Amherst in July 1987.
The Francis Papers contains both manuscript and printed materials, drafts and finished words, documenting the illustrious career of the poet. Of particular note is Francis's correspondence with other writers, publishing houses, and readers, notably Paul Theroux. Also contains personal photographs and Francis family records and a small number of audio recordings of Francis reading his poetry. Letters from Francis to Regina Codey, 1936-1978, can be found in MS 314 along with two typescript poems by Francis.

Kingsbury family
Kingsbury Family Papers, 1862-2006 (Bulk: 1881-1902).
Call no.: MS 504
The family of Roxana Kingsbury Gould (nee Weed) farmed the rocky soils of western New England during the late nineteenth century. Roxana's first husband Ambrose died of dysentery shortly after the Civil War, leaving her to care for their two infant sons, and after marrying her second husband, Lyman Gould, she relocated from southwestern Vermont to Cooleyville and then (ten years later) to Shelburne, Massachusetts. The Goulds added a third son to their family in 1869.
A rich collection of letters and photographs recording the history of the Kingsbury-Gould families of Shelburne, Massachusetts. The bulk of the letters are addressed to Roxana Kingsbury Gould, the strong-willed matriarch at the center of the family, and to her granddaughter, May Kingsbury Phillips, the family's first historian. In addition to documenting the complicated dynamics of a close-knit family, this collection is a rich source for the study of local history, rural New England, and the social and cultural practices at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries.

Nokia CEO faces investor revolt: "Switch to another road" is demand
Nokia CEO Stephen Elop faces renewed criticism from shareholders this week, with attendees at the annual general meeting mincing no words in demanding the Finnish firm reconsider its devotion to Windows Phone. Elop conceded during the investor event that the Nokia leadership "make adjustments as we go," but insisted that Lumia and Windows Phone remained the best way forward, Reuters reports. That confidence wasn't enough to placate outspoken critics, however, with one questioning whether the chief exec was "aware that results are what matter."
