After Saturday night's game in Chicago, Derrick Rose hasn't practiced or played for Team USA, including in last night's game.

Rose insisted it's not the knees, just 'body fatigue'. And, well...Derrick Rose sure says stuff. Tom Thibodeau called it 'general soreness' and had more interesting thoughts on the matter.

"We went in with the idea that, as long as he's feeling good, he's gonna play [for Team USA]. He's gotta play at some point. He's basically been out for three years, so he's gotta play, and I think this is a great setting for him -- as I've mentioned many times -- because of the depth of the team.

"You have Kyrie, Damian [Lillard], James [Harden]; there's so many guys. He doesn't have to play a lot of minutes or have the burden of scoring big. He just has to go out there and find a rhythm and run the team. With all the depth on the team, it's ideal for him. But if he needs rest, we're gonna give him rest. It's gonna be a process for him coming back. There's gonna be some days where he has some soreness. And when he has some soreness, we're gonna be smart."

This is all is how it should work. Rose was never going to (hell, we just went through this last summer) come back with no restrictions, despite when he says stuff. Thibs is right, if unfortunately using Gar-speak: it's a process. Rose's knees (yes, yes, yes, yes) will be sore at times. He'll have to be eased in to playing heavy minutes, and mindful of the back-to-back nature of the NBA schedule.

What's nice is that apparently Team USA is alright facilitating this for Rose, even though their own schedule is very tight. While they have depth at guard, it's probably not the best use of resources to have someone who potentially can't play every night. But if they're willing, that's good news for Bulls fans who don't need to particularly care how this national team performs.

If they figure they need someone more reliable, they could ultimately cut Derrick Rose and it still would've been worthwhile to go through these practices and exhibitions. Better now than in the preseason, and then of course leading into the regular season. But as Mike McGraw reminds me, Team USA's group-play schedule is fairly easy, so they could keep Rose and deploy him with restrictions and still make it to the final tournament just fine. And hopefully Rose himself will be just fine as well.

Rose is dealing with some knee soreness after starting against Brazil, but there's no reason to panic.

Derrick Rose played in a basketball game against real-life opponents in front of an adoring United Center crowd on Saturday night. He had a sweet last-second layup before the half, a sick crossover, and a missed dunk while generally looking content to sit back as Anthony Davis stole the show.

Although Rose didn't really wow anybody, it was a plus to see him out there moving around like his old self at times. On that last-second layup, he was an absolute blur speeding down the court, bringing back vivid memories of the good ole days. And of course, it was a positive for him to get out of the game without a serious injury.

The optimism surrounding Rose has been sky high since the start of Team USA's training camp, but that momentum came to a halt when the point guard sat out two consecutive practices to rest his knees. While Coach K said Monday in an ESPN Radio interview that the rest was planned, Chris Sheridan of SheridanHoops.com set off some alarm bells by reporting Rose sat out due to knee soreness.

Sheridan's report was confirmed by both CSN Chicago's Aggrey Sam and ESPN Chicago's Nick Friedell:

A source familiar with Rose's condition told ESPNChicago.com's Nick Friedell that Rose has been bothered by knee soreness since his return to the floor Saturday night in an exhibition victory over Brazil in Chicago and requested the extra time to recover. But Team USA officials, to this point, have downplayed concerns about Rose's status.

Pessimists may want to push the panic button here, but there's little reason to do such a thing. Throughout these last few years, we've heard how knee soreness is simply a part of the recovery process after major knee surgery. When you've played such little basketball in a game setting at a high intensity level over a long period of time, it's only natural to feel that soreness when you return.

Rose himself isn't worried about it, and Tom Thibodeau said they anticipated soreness, according to the Chicago Tribune's K.C. Johnson:

"Saturday night was the first time for all the players to play again, so we were anticipating soreness the next day," said Thibodeau, an assistant on USA Basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski's staff. "For Derrick, he had not played since November. We knew there'd be more for him. We just gave him a day or two (off), let him get his legs under him and we'll see where he is tomorrow."

This is just a reminder that it's going to be a process for Rose to return to playing at an elite level. It's not something that's going to happen overnight. It's easy to get caught up in all of the hype when people are talking about how he has "no restrictions" and how he looks so great in practice, but Sheridan says some of the optimism may have been overstated. Aggrey Sam even has a source saying there's still a chance Rose ends up withdrawing from the FIBA Basketball World Cup because of the burden he may have to carry, which would certainly be a bummer, but not the absolute worst thing in the world.

Rose likely won't start in Team USA's exhibition against the Dominican Republic on Wednesday due to the team's policy of having to practice the day before a game in order to start. However, he's still expected to suit up and play, although perhaps he doesn't see as much floor time as he did against Brazil.

The Nike World Basketball Festival was in town this weekend to serve as a reminder of everything Chicago hoops has to offer.

I recognized Jonathan Mills as soon as I walked into the beach house set up at Jackson Park on Friday night. He looked shorter than I remembered.

The last time I saw Mills, I was working in the high school sports department of the Chicago Sun-Times and he was one of the best players in the city as a star big man for North Lawndale. On Friday night, Mills was the starting power forward for the home team in a Chicago vs. New York Pro-Am game that served as just one of many events associated with the Nike World Basketball Festival going on around the city this weekend.

In a way, the 24-year-old Mills personified the spirit of the festival. This was a celebration of what basketball means to Chicago, but it was also a party with a message. You might remember the North Lawndale neighborhood Mills came out of as the starting point for Ta-Nehisi Coates' amazing piece on reparations for The Atlantic earlier this year. It remains one of the most dangerous areas of the city. Watching Mills grab rebound after rebound from my courtside seat got me thinking about a night more than five years ago when his high school team was leading the evening news.

Mills had just led North Lawndale to a victory over ACT Charter on a freezing January night in 2009 when an altercation broke out after the game. It ended with one of Mills' best teammates, forward Jermaine Winfield, getting shot in the leg.

"Jermaine is like a hero," Mills told the Chicago Tribune at the time. "When we were running back to the building Tuesday night, Jermaine shoved me out of the way and the bullet hit him. Otherwise, it would have gotten me."

That was, unfortunately, not the last bullet Winfield would take. He's paralyzed from the waist down now after getting shot three times in 2011. It makes Winfield just another reminder of the senseless danger so many people in this city have to live with every day, even if it's out of sight and out of mind for those of us on the north side or in the suburbs.

The violence that continues to plague Chicago was very much at the forefront of the weekend. I heard Sonny Parker, father of Jabari and a well-known community activist, talk at Simeon High School about the game's role in keeping teenagers off the street. I went down to 70th and South Shore Drive to listen to Scoop Jackson and the two men behind Benji address a group of intercity kids at Chi Talks on Friday morning in an event meant to motivate and empower the city's youth.

Derrick Rose wasn't hiding from it either, bringing up the violence unprompted at USA Basketball practice on Thursday, and again when he opened Saturday night's exhibition game against Brazil with a few moments on the microphone.

"I know that it's basketball but what's going on here is bigger than basketball," Rose said after the game. "It's bigger than one person trying to do something. It's kind of messed up because it's kind of a system. The only way we can change is if all of us change and people change their mindsets and try to keep busy. They got too much time on their hands."

* * * *

Team USA's exhibition opener against Brazil was the centerpiece of a weekend that shined a spotlight on Chicago basketball at every level. I made a full day of it on Friday, going from far south side for Chi Talks in the morning to the near west side for USA Basketball practice in the afternoon, up a few blocks northeast to Whitney Young for the Nike Global Challenge after that and back to Jackson Park at night.

The Global Challenge at Young featured some of the best high school players in the country competing against teams from Canada, China, Pan-Africa and Brazil. Doug McDermott walked into the gym as the best player in the state, point guard Jalen Brunson, threw a transition alley-oop to the human highlight reel that is top 2016 recruit Malik Monk. Jahlil Okafor was there watching too, as were high school and AAU coaches from around the city like Nick Irvin, Ty Slaughter and Robert Smith. There were a lot of authentic Chicagoans in that room.

  PODCAST

 Bulls Show talks with Ricky

"We grindin'. That's one word I can say: grinding," That's what Irvin, who has recently coached Jabari, Jahlil and Cliff Alexander on the Mac Irvin Fire, told me when I asked him what makes Chicago basketball special.

"We get after it. We don't care if it's ugly basketball or whatever. That cute basketball is out the window. That's what separates us from a lot of people. We tough, we grinding, we physical. We just get after it and don't care about how it looks. We just get the job done."

By the time Friday night's Chicago vs. New York game rolled around, it felt momentous even if nothing more than civic pride was tangibly on the line.

Taj Gibson was sitting five seats down from me, wearing skinny sweatpants and a Yankees cap and dapping up everyone that came his way. Joakim Noah walked in during halftime and sat close to Bears cornerback Tim Jennings.

This might have happened 30 times in the last 10 minutes. https://t.co/4pz38CfvpD
 — Ricky O'Donnell (@SBN_Ricky) August 16, 2014

The Chicago team featured some players you might remember. Jerome Randle, the pride of Hales Franciscan, was clearly the best player on the team. That's no surprise for a guy who was named Pac-12 Player of the Year at Cal two years ago even though he's only about 5'8. Osiris Eldridge, a star at Phillips High School and then Illinois State, was lighting it up, too. Randle and Eldridge were awesome, but there was no denying who was the night's biggest star.

Mills is undersized for a big man even in a Pro-Am game at 6'5, but the New York team (featuring former Seton Hall point guard Andre Barrett, among others) had no chance of stopping him. Chicago kept missing and Mills kept grabbing the rebound, pump faking once and putting it back in.

The play that iced the game for Team Chicago was strangely powerful to me. Chicago was leading by one when Randle missed a shot. Mills soared for the offensive rebound, scored and was fouled. The lights started flashing inside the beach house and the MC began running across the sideline.

"J. Mills, the best rebounder in the world!"

The best rebounder in the world! The best rebounder in the world.

In that moment, it was hard not to swell up with pride for Chicago hoops. Mills might be long past his high school heyday at this point. He's a few years removed from his two seasons at Southern Mississippi, where he played after JuCo. It didn't matter. In a weekend meant to celebrate Chicago basketball, Mills felt like the perfect hero.

That same bit of emotion hit me even harder on Saturday night during the introductions for USA vs. Brazil.

D. Rose was lined up in the wrong spot at first, standing in the front quarter of the line while Team USA was being announced. He was shown on the jumbotron for a second before sneaking to the back of the line. When the announcer finally got to him, the United Center exploded. I was sitting in an otherwise empty press box and allowed myself a few understated golf claps. It was chilling, and it felt like the crowd could have gone on forever. The UC exploded again when Rose addressed the crowd before tip:

"Here is Chicago, it's kind of like basketball is everything," Rose said after the game. "You go down South and football is everything, but here, you go to a high school game and you won't be able to get in because it's so packed. So for this event to be here, you saw with Jabari, all the young players, the players that were in town, they made an appearance, they showed they love the game."

Rose has been through so much in these last two years, but he's done a great job of keeping everything in perspective. He knows how lucky he is. If the last two seasons took a toll on him, you can't tell from his enthusiasm for the game or the city.

There were people walking around Jackson Park on Friday night with shirts that read "Basketball needs Chicago". Hang around with enough of the people that make this such a incredible spot for hoops long enough and you realize the opposite is true, too.

Derrick Rose plays basketball! Big, if true.

Team USA kicks off their pre World Cup exhibition schedule at the United Center in Chicago. And Derrick Rose will start.

It'll be good to see him play again. Enjoy.

We went there.

This wasn't my first time hanging out with basketball players at Quest Multiplex on the city's west side. I've been lucky enough to cover the practices for the McDonald's All-American Game the last two years; the first one with Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker, Julius Randle and Aaron Gordon, the last one with Jahlil Okafor, Cliff Alexander, Emmanuel Mudiay and Karl Towns. I've been at the NBA Draft Combine the last two years as well, spanning a historically bad 2013 class to one that's essentially the polar opposite coming in this year.

I love covering those events because there's no better way to get a feel for particular players and the game as a whole than by being right next to it. I hope I can cover them every single year. There was something markedly different about being at Quest on Wednesday, though, and you didn't even need to enter the gym to get that sense.

As I was walking up for USA Basketball's first of two practices in Chicago ahead of Saturday night's exhibition game against Brazil at the United Center, there was a familiar-looking ESPN personality shooting a standup for SportsCenter. By the time the day was over and I was walking out of the gym, there were kids holding sharpies, wearing Steph Curry shirseys looking for autographs.

When NBA stars are in the house, it's just different. Instead of pointing to some gangly 17-year-old and telling folks he's the next James Harden, you can actually watch James Harden. His beard is even thicker, sweatier and grosser up close, you can believe that.

That's part of what made Wednesday's practice sort of surreal, at least for a humble stay-at-home blogger like myself. When Coach K finally let us in to watch practice, the scene was a bit jarring.

The first thing you see is the white board with the team breakdowns:

And then it's the players, right there in front of you, going hard at each other in scrimmage. It was great. D. Rose throwing cross-court passes to Steph. Kyrie putting on a ball handling show like only he can. Anthony Davis filling the lane like a pterodactyl swooping in from above. All of it was so cool to see up close. And then DeMarcus Cousins dove on the floor for a loose ball and started screaming in pain, holding his right knee.

I'll admit, it looked bad at first. Maybe I'm just conditioned to expect the worst from injuries at this point, my D. Rose-related scars still too fresh to consider any better outcome. Fortunately, Boogie would pop back up after a couple minutes, and it wasn't long before the other reporters were gossiping around that it probably wasn't too serious. It was enough for Coach K to call the scrimmage after about 10 more minutes, though, as the individual players filed to different parts of the gym to work on drills.

In one corner, Kyle Korver and Klay Thompson were drilling shot after shot from the baseline.

Kyle. https://t.co/bDcDtrpDdG

In the other, Davis and Rudy Gay hit one 15-footer after another.

 — Ricky O'Donnell (@SBN_Ricky) August 14, 2014

On a court across the gym was D. Rose, with a little kid grabbing rebounds as the only other person on the floor. The media formed a half-circle around him and waited for Rose to finish doing his thing, first taking jumpers and then working his way in for floaters. Something about it just wasn't doing it for me; I don't know, I guess I've seen Derrick shoot in an empty gym too many times over the last two seasons to get excited about it. Eventually Rose would call it quits though and he began a pretty lengthy session with the media.

These things are always packed, and that's especially the case with national media in town. As a short man, I stand no chance.

I was way back in the scrum, but I could still see Derrick's face and make out his responses. You can tell he's having fun with this experience. He seemed like he was in a really good mood.

There's no better way to get Derrick going than to ask him about Thibs, and it wasn't long because Rose started cracking jokes:

Funny Rose quote regarding Thibs' participation with Team USA. "It gives him something to do instead of being at the Berto spying on people"
 — Nick Friedell (@NickFriedell) August 15, 2014

Rose gave very good answers to real questions, too, like on what he's taking away from working with Team USA this summer:

"Playing, just playing pickup," he said. "I don't play pickup during the summer, so just getting in that rhythm, coming out here and knocking that rust off. My biggest thing is not turning over the ball."

I wrote about Rose's bizarre phobia of playing summertime pickup before this camp started. And yes, it still makes zero sense to me.

Here's what Rose had to say about getting older. Remember: he turns 26 in November.

"You talk to the older players who really study the game, that are students of the game, and they look at the game totally different," he said. "For me, I always had that natural feel for the game so I didn't have to look at film. But looking at that actually helps your game in a number of ways. You see things that you normally don't see."

The highlight was definitely when The Score's David Schuster asked Rose what he thought of the beginning of the schedule for the Bulls, with an opening game against the Knicks and then a Halloween visit from the Cavs. He had no idea the schedule was even out.

Rose's response: "Wow. Wow, wow, wow. I gotta get my tickets ready."

I couldn't stop laughing. Peak Derrick there, really.

Quite a way to start the season, eh?

The NBA has officially announced the schedule for the 2014-15 season, and the Bulls will open their season with a pair of doozys. First up is Bulls shunner Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Oct. 29, and that's followed by the home opener against the new-look Cavs at the United Center on Halloween. Quite the way to start the season.

Following those two games, the Bulls have a rather "easy" first month of the year. There are 11 road games due to the Circus Trip, but only five of the 15 November games are against playoff teams from last season, and one of those is Indiana. Having a lighter early schedule is definitely nice as Derrick Rose gets his legs back and the newcomers gel together.

The Bulls have one other longish road trip, coming at the tail end of January into February. That's a six-gamer, while the Circus Trip will be seven games. The Bulls have a seven-game homestand in February/March, but the end of it is part of a rather brutal stretch of games that includes the Thunder, Clippers and later the Spurs on the road.

The Bulls will have 20 back-to-backs, with 14 of those involving travel. They also have two stretches where they have to play four games in five nights.

As for national television, the Bulls will technically be on it 30 times, although I don't really count the five NBA TV games. There are five ABC games, 10 TNT games and 10 ESPN games. Not including NBA TV games, the Bulls are tied with the Cavs and Thunder for most nationally televised games.

One new wrinkle this season is a prolonged All-Star Break. Following All-Star Weekend, the Bulls will have four additional days off before taking on the Pistons the Friday after the All-Star Game.

The full schedule can be found here.

And now for some schedule highlights other than the two high-profile openers.

Dec. 25 vs. Lakers: The Bulls get a nice Christmas present by having the opportunity to bash the Lakers at the United Center. This will be just the second time since the last title that the Bulls have hosted a game on Christmas. This will be Pau Gasol's first game against his former team, but more importantly, this is Carlos Boozer's one trip to the UC this season. How will he be received?

Nov. 17 at Clippers: The start of the Circus Trip, and the last time Rose played against the Clippers at the Staples Center, this happened:

Enough said.

Nov. 21 at Blazers: Rose tore his meniscus on Nov. 22, 2013. Almost exactly one year later, Rose and the Bulls return to the Moda Center during the Circus Trip. Let's cross our fingers this game turns out much better than the last one in Portland.

Dec. 6 vs. Warriors: Stephen Curry is always a must-see player, although he has had his fair share of struggles against the Bulls. That's because Kirk Hinrich is apparently his kryptonite.

Dec. 23 at Wizards: The Bulls will get their first chance at "revenge' on the Wizards after last season's playoff defeat. Also: Rose vs John Wall. Please and thank you.

Dec. 27 vs. Pelicans: Who knows how good the Pellies will be, but future Bull Anthony Davis (wait, what?) is turning into a monster, and this is the only chance to catch him at the United Center this year. Omer Asik is another reason to tune in.

Jan. 10 vs. Bucks: Yeah, the Bucks will be horrible. But Jabari Parker! Giannis Antetokounmpo! Jason Kidd! That's reason enough for this game to be rather intriguing.

Jan. 22 vs. Spurs: The Bulls get to see how they measure up against the defending champs. It's also a battle between arguably the two best coaches in the game. Should be a ton of fun.

Jan. 25 vs. Heat: Seeing Luol Deng come to the United Center in a Heat jersey is going to be so damn bizarre. I hope he gets a nice ovation despite going over to The Dark Side.

March 6 vs. Thunder: Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and Serge Ibaka are always a treat to watch. Westbrook vs. Rose should be especially awesome. (crosses fingers they stay healthy)

Tensions flared again between Iran and Gulf states Bahrain and Kuwait this week,
leading to criticism from both Gulf countries that Tehran was interfering in
their domestic affairs.
Comments that Iran's deputy foreign minister made
Tuesday sparked the latest diplomatic spat with Bahrain, after Hossein
Amir-Abdollahian accused the Sunni-ruled island country of using "toxic gas" to
suppress Shi'ite protesters.
Bahrain's Foreign Ministry immediately
rushed out a statement condemning Abdollahian's remarks.
"We are severely
astonished at these false allegations, which are designed to cover up the
disastrous situation in the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the suffering of the
Iranian people under the catastrophic and tragic deteriorating economic
conditions," the statement said, according to a report in Kuwait's Al-Seyassah
political daily on Thursday.
The ministry said Abdollahian's comments had
"encroached on Bahrain's sovereignty."
Echoing the Foreign Ministry's
comments, Bahrain's Minister of State for Information Affairs Sameera Rajab told
Saudi newspaper Al-Madina on Thursday that Iran was "lying to cover up the
suffering of its own people."
Rajab said she considered Abdollahian's
remarks to be "signs of direct intervention by Tehran" in her country's
"Abdollahian knows he was lying, because he knows Bahrain very
well and [that] we do not have hostile or racist policies," she said.
accused "radical groups" of working to "tarnish Bahrain's image
Relations between Sunniruled Bahrain and Shi'ite Iran,
always tense, deteriorated further in the wake of the Arab Spring. Tehran has
angered Bahrain by supporting protests by the kingdom's majority Shi'ites, which
began in February 2011. At least 50 people have been killed since the unrest
Bahrain is also the headquarters of the US Navy's 5th Fleet, which
Iran has threatened to attack in the event of a war with Israel.
In turn,
Bahrain and Saudi Arabia have accused Iran and its Lebanese proxy Hezbollah of
aiding the Shi'ite-led uprisings as part of an effort to export its Islamic
Revolution outside its borders.
In March 2011, Bahrain recalled its
ambassador from Tehran in anger at what it said was "blatant interference" in
its internal affairs. The ambassador returned to Tehran in August.
Wednesday, Kuwait also criticized remarks that a senior Iranian military
commander made regarding the Gulf states.
Maj.-Gen. Yahya Rahim Safavi,
an adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and a former Revolutionary
Guards commander, accused Gulf states this week of spending billions of dollars
on arms to carry out a "US and Israeli plot," according to Iran's state media.
However, Safavi did not elaborate on what that plot might entail.
warn smaller countries that petrodollars cannot make them play key roles in the
region," he warned.
In response, a senior Kuwaiti foreign ministry
official said that Kuwait "rejected any interference in its domestic affairs,"
Gulf News reported.
This latest spat comes after Iran denied a Kuwaiti
media report in September that cited an Iranian lawmaker as saying Tehran had
the "right to interfere in Kuwait to protect the Shi'ites there."
dismissed the report, which caused outrage among Kuwaiti lawmakers, as a
"politically- tainted and fabricated claim."
In the past, Kuwait and Iran
have enjoyed reasonably close diplomatic and economic relations.
Kuwait, like other Gulf states, is concerned that Iran may pose a threat to its
national security, believing that the Islamic Republic and Hezbollah are behind
Shi'ite unrest in the Gulf.
In 2011, Kuwait sentenced three people – two
Iranians and a Kuwaiti – to death for spying for Iran's Revolutionary Guards
Corps, a development that many in the Gulf saw as evidence of Iran's covert
operations in the region.

CLASSROOM SPOTLIGHT: Brookside Middle School
Date: March 23, 2011
by: Loren Mayo | Community Editor
Students in Susan Roberts' class at Brookside Middle School built Soda Can Robugs — bug robots — Friday, March 18, thanks to a grant from Sun Hydraulics. The Sarasota Observer checked in during first period to see how they were doing.
Darby Adams
Is this your first robot?
I've never built anything in my life, but this is easy and fun.
What's been the biggest challenge so far?
Connecting the wires, but we only messed up on the wings. We had them backward.
Yakira Padilla
What's the best part about this lab?
I get to build stuff again. I miss doing that — especially helping my parents build car motors. (This robot) is basically a lot of work on knowing what you're dealing with. It helps to read the instructions and know what you need to know to finish.
Did you name your Robug?
Its name is Buggsy.
Kassie Fountain
What surprised you most?
That it's kind of hard, and the screws were complicated because they are so small. But – I'm surprised it actually works in the end.
Do you want to build another robot?
A human robot, or a dog or cat.
Brianne Goff
Was this a challenging lab?
Robotics is interesting because it can be so difficult, and if you make mistakes, you have to start all over again. At one point, he (classmate Rodney Lucky) thought it wasn't going to work.
What made him think it wouldn't work?
He flipped a switch and nothing happened.
What was wrong?
We didn't have the batteries in.

Connection Between Red Meat and Cancer
By Beth Bence Reinke
Yet another study—this one including more than half a million people—confirms what our docs have been warning us about: Eating red meat increases cancer risk. So we can't help but wonder, Why is red meat so bad? Recent research revealed at least part of the answer as chronic inflammation. Scientists discovered that red meat introduces a certain sugar molecule that the body doesn't recognize, therefore causing an inflammatory immune response. This response leads to chronic inflammation—a known risk factor for cancer. But there is good news: As the inflammation goes down, so does the risk. Speaking of chronic inflammation, instead of using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) to reduce it, simply reach in your spice cabinet. According to Bharat Aggarwal, PhD, professor of cancer medicine at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, natural anti-inflammatories like curcumin (found in turmeric and curry powder) are effective against chronic inflammation without the side effects of prescription or OTC drugs. Aggarwal recommends taking 500 mg of curcumin a day.

Experimental methods and the welfare evaluation of policy lotteries
AbstractPolicies impose lotteries of outcomes on individuals, since we never know exactly what the effects of the policy will be. In order to evaluate alternative policies, we need to make assumptions about individual preferences, even before social welfare functions are applied. There are two broad ways in which experimental methods are used to evaluate policy. One is to use experiments to estimate individual preferences, valuations and beliefs and use those estimates as priors in policy evaluation. The other is to use randomisation to infer the effects of policy. The strengths, weaknesses and complementarities of these approaches are reviewed. , Oxford University Press.

Tom Werner: Proud of "Home Base Program," happy to have John Farrell back home
Red Sox chairman Tom Werner was understandably proud to be in attendance at AT&T Park last night for Game 2 of the World Series, given that Major League Baseball was using the occasion to honor baseball veterans who served in World War II.
Werner spearheaded the Home Base Program, perhaps the crown jewel of the Red Sox Foundation. The Home Base Program is a $3 million initiative designed to help returning soldiers who are dealing with severe post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Werner took part in a pre-game press conference that included Nicholas Kimmel, a corporal in the United States Marines who lost both legs and an arm while on his second tour of duty in Afghanistan. Cpl. Kimmel threw out the first pitch prior to Game 2 with Giants Hall of Famer Willie Mays, who missed parts of two seasons while serving the country while with the U.S. Army in Korea.
Also in attendance: 94-year-old Hall of Fame Red Sox second baseman Bobby Doerr, who missed the 1945 season when he served a year in the Army.
"I'm very proud to be here," said Werner. "The only thing that could make it better is if we were playing (in the World Series) this year."
Tom Werner on incoming Red Sox manager John Farrell: "We think he's outstanding. I know he's got a great relationship with pitchers in particular, but with all the players you could see they were enthused.
"We're going to turn the page," he said. "We're looking forward to improving the squad . . . he's started working with (general manager) Ben Cherington and we're going to move forward."
Werner said, "We need to improve."

NOAH - AND THE LAST DAYS to Be Released on YouTube, 3/28
Noah will be released on YouTube (at NoahTheMovie.com). This isn't Hollywood's version starring Russell Crowe, but "Noah-And the Last Days" produced by filmmaker Ray Comfort, whose award-winning movies have been seen by millions.
Comfort said that he and Crowe have two things in common. "We were both born in New Zealand, and neither of us can pronounce 'ark' correctly (we skip the 'r'). But the similarities end there." In noting that their Noah movies are very different, Comfort explained why Hollywood's version may be bigger but he believes his version is better. "Hollywood's is listed as 'fantasy,'" Comfort stated, "while ours is based on the truth. Theirs is entertainment that will cost you. Ours is life-changing and will be freely available on YouTube."
Rather than tell the story of Noah and the Ark, Comfort's "Noah" looks at the parallels between Noah's day and ours and gives ten biblical signs of "the last days."
Ray Comfort appeared on "CBS This Morning" (Charlie Rose) to talk about Noah
The Los Angeles-based filmmaker added that "Noah-And the Last Days" has been available for sale for The Past month, as a pre-release download, to help cover costs and finance the production of future films. "Thousands have already Downloaded it, for which we are grateful, and their reactions have been very encouraging."
Comfort decided to release his film three days early because of the importance of its message. "We hope people will watch 'Noah-And the Last Days' to learn the biblical reason God sent a worldwide Flood and be able to share these truths with those who see the Hollywood version. Rather than providing mere entertainment, we want viewers to consider whether the biblical warning of Noah applies to them today." A Companion Guide is also available that explains why there are so many Flood stories, how the animals fit on the Ark, evidences of a global Flood, and more.
Comfort added that he is expecting a flood of Visitors Tuesday at www.NoahTheMovie.com.

Unless I had to spend $95 first.

Dagh. I ordered some of those flight stands a week ago for her, but I accidentally selected Newgistics, so a week later they've moved a total of 40 miles - in the opposite direction from my house....
Actually last year, it was several hours until we heard. Nothing unusual about no answer one way or the other now. If we don't know in 5 hours? That would b eodd.
That answer didn't sound overly...

I have an uncle who works at Nintendo and he thinks the sub is going to go through.

Well, I agree that its unlikely that we've sold out yet. But the only evidence you've posted is that the Kowlometer wasn't updated, which it wouldn't be even if we sold out.
If we are at 78%...
After the initial burst (and then again at SDCC) almost every update has been 2% So this isn't slower than the weeks before SDCC
Here's what I'm hoping some enterprising and crafty fan can create. I'll probably display Arrow without wings, I'd love if I could leave the saddle cover off of one side and be able to plug a...
They're open. Hordak is ordered.
I just did. I pulled out the DVDs. They were pretty fast and loose with his name. It sounds a little like cookie some time a little like Lou-key other times.
I'm surprised no one else has suggested my solution.
I just use a vintage Panthor. He's smaller than the MOTUC Panthor and just the right size for Catra. No mask, but it looks pretty good.
Of all the characters that I would imagine travelling to Primus for NA, Battle Cat and Panthor wouldn't have crossed my mind. Steeds seem less required in space.
But.... sure, why not? MOTU was...
This is the best pic of Rio I've seen from SDCC and it doesn't look very flush.
Well, since someone asked, here are the original exhaust pipes. They're very simple designs so it's kind of hard to say if the thing above is or is not supposed to be this.
Bursting out through Megator's chest, covered in blood. "Did you find me? Here I am!"
Actually, that's not true. The top half of his Snake form will be coming with a character later in the year.
He's the winner of multiple polls on the .org for their most wanted figure. That's who.
I think the pics of the display look great.
That said, what ever happened to Mattel rounding up all the vintage figures? Wasn't there a lot of talk of a display with all of the original figures...
Those are certainly all words. Are those things you've seen or things you hope for?
???? Ummm yes? I mean, no on the fan fiction thing, but... yes Hordak is made up. He is a character of...

I've been in front of computers for over 30 years now, with my roots in programming 8 bit computers, I've taken an often exciting journey which has led to becoming an expert in an enterprise product. I consider my career as starting 17 years ago, when I began my first serious role as a deployment engineer. I've seen 8 bit through to 64 bit, the rise and refinement of the interface we take for granted now, the rise of the Internet from land-line based modem access for the few, to the powerful broadband connections we have today for the masses, I saw mobile phones come into existence, and I've seen Microsoft evolve from more than a handful of employees to the company it is now, while pretty much tinkering with every OS they have released, as well as seeing an industry that has evolved around those humble beginnings to become what we have today. I'm a keen technical puzzle solver, I love to solve gnarly problems around my area of specialism. And, I love to share when I have time. I hope you enjoy the blog.
Windows Live will soon be supporting the Open-ID authentication standard. that's great news, as soon I can access Windows Live and WMUG using a single ID!
I can associate a site with my Open-ID, login to my chosen Open-ID provider (lots to choose from out there!), and as long as I remain logged in to the provider I can hop between sites i've associated with the ID without being prompted for another login. Bring it on myITforum, that would then make three sites I trust that I can hop between with only one login.
Eggs in one basket? No, I setup what I call my insecure Open-ID, that I use on unimportant sites, sites I don't trust et al, and have my secure Open-ID that provides me with access to sites I do trust. I literally drown under the amount of logins I need to remember, from email, website, to server logins. It's just getting too much for me to handle nowdays, so Open-ID is a bit of relief (where I can use it) considering that the Microsoft Passport initiative kind of died on it's feet a while ago and seemed to be the only other way to do this.
By the way, WMUG enabled Open-ID a few weeks back. We didn't make a song and dance about it as not that many folk use it. However if you go to the Login page you will see that you can indeed use your Open-ID to access this site.

M.A.D. E-News: 103 Year Old Wild Orca "Granny" Needs Your Help! #NoEnbridge
Hey M.A.D.'rs
We've got a friend who needs our help.
Since we launched in 2011 we've thrown everything we have at the captive animal facility Marineland Canada. Our hope has always been that with enough pressure we can close the wild capture loophole and ensure that no more wild caught marine mammals will find their way into barren tanks. We do that because we believe that wild animals belong in the wild.
In order to make that a reality though, we have to acknowledge not only the plight of captive animals like Canada's last remaining captive Orca Kiska, but also the marine mammals that line our coasts and who desperately need our help.
One of those animals who needs our help is Granny, the 103 year old resident wild J Pod Orca who calls the waters off of the West Coast home. Granny's story is a long one. Believed to be born in 1911, Granny was actually captured with her pod in 1967 and released when it was determined she would be too old for captivity. Living through the boom of the captive animal industry, the move to make wild capture in the US and Canada illegal, and to the present day where only one Orca remains in captivity in Canada - Granny is a testament to the resilience of wild animals.
However, as Granny dodges one bullet - other obstacles have always presented themselves. Safe from wild capture, Granny, her pod and all wildlife on the West Coast now face new threats in the way of oil tankers and the development of the Northern Gateway Pipeline Project.
That project, recently green lighted by the Harper Administration against the advice of the scientific community, the majority of British Columbians, and dozens of First Nations who oppose the pipeline, is a serious threat and should be a cause for concern for everyone who wants to fight to see wild animals kept in the wild. Locals in B.C. have warned that if this pipeline ever becomes a reality to "expect dead whales."
For this reason this Saturday we will be joining with a handful of other local community groups in Niagara for a community rally out front of Conservative MP Rob Nicholson's office in Niagara Falls. As the Minister of Defense, Mr. Nicholson holds a serious cabinet position and should be held accountable for the decisions of an administration that ignores sound advice in the name of profit. We hope that you will join with us, support this rally in any way you can, and also support the #NOEnbridge tag on social media whether it is used in Kitmat, Bella Bella, Unist'ot'en, Toronto, Montreal or St. Catharines. It is up to us to join together, raise our collective voices, and ensure that future generations of wildlife are able to not only survive, but thrive off of our coasts and in our communities.
Do it for Granny.
If you would like to contact Rob Nicholson to urge him to publicly remove his support for the Northern Gateway Pipeline Project you can reach him via email at email@example.com
and by phone 905-353-9590. If Rob is not your MP we suggest following up with MP as well (cc us!)

MAD E-News: VICTORY IN COURT + Freedom for Dolphins and Whales Demonstration (Sun June 29th)
Hey all,
We've got great news!
As we began to deliver our defense yesterday in Ontario Superior Court lawyers for Marineland Canada rose and abandoned their "silent demonstration" motion! Clearly effected by our defense, our unwillingness to back down, and the overwhelming amount of support that had come since they served us notice at the very last minute - Marineland was forced in Superior Court to back down!
If Marineland would have been successful the restrictions would have stopped chanting and also severely restricted our ability to appeal to park goers to make informed decisions about what they support with their money. This is a huge victory for MAD and for those who oppose Marineland and none of it would have been possible without your support.
9 days ago we launched a GoFundMe and asked for support. In the span of 8 days $9,650 of our $10,000 goal is raised!
In the span of one month hundreds took part in the first ever "March On Marineland" and we've gotten our first activist defeat of Marineland in court!
So far our campaign year has been full of positives, but we also have to make sure we keep that up! Our next demonstration is coming soon on Sunday June 29th from 12-2pm. For those who have been waiting for a Sunday demonstration this is for you! The demonstration itself is part of "Freedom for Dolphins and Whales" another coordinated and international day of protest against animal captivity. Please do what you can to support that demonstration spread the word through social media and word of mouth, organizing and offering car pools and encouraging others to get active for captive animals! We've attached a facebook cover photo for facebook users to use to spread the word
"Freedom for Dolphins and Whales" Facebook Event Page - https://www.facebook.com/events/639931292759672/
We fought hard for the right to demonstrate, to chant and to appeal to the public to educate them on how they have a choice that captive animals do not. Now, it's time to step up and use those rights!
Marineland Animal Defense
Marineland is taking MAD and co-founder Dylan Powell back to court on June 16th. We urgently need your help to defend ourselves and get rid of the $10,000 cost order currently in place before that date. Please share this image to spread the word and stay tuned for more updates and information on what you can do to help! You can read more and donate on our Go Fund Me page here:http://www.gofundme.com/a4b37c
"Although $10,000 means next to nothing to Marineland Canada - which is reported to spend $4 Million/Year on advertising alone - it gives them significant leverage in the court room and also provides them with another weapon to punish me with. We are hoping to raise the funds to get rid of this cost order and also to successfully defend ourselves on June 16th - which would mean on June 17th we would be back to a position of strength after 19 months of aggressive civil litigation from Marineland.
We've kept organizing, kept demonstrating and kept the pressure on and this latest round of aggression from Marineland can be traced back as their response to the overwheming support of our massive opening day "March on Marineland." With your support we will keep moving forward! "
MAD E-News: We Did It! Hundreds Marched on Marineland!
Hey MAD'rs,
Last Saturday the captive animal facility Marineland Canada opened for its 53rd season and it was met with the first ever march through downtown Niagara Falls onto the facility! Hundreds took to the streets of Niagara Falls - marching from HWY 420 and through the tourist district - to let the public know that we want an end to animal captivity!
The crowd was electric - driven by chants and a marching band - and the impact was undeniable. A new chapter in the 40+ years of opposition to Marineland has begun.
Some of the best photos of the day are attached and links to some of the best media coverage is below.
A huge thank you to everyone who volunteered, participated and supported the #MarchOnMarineland. This could not have happened without a massive team effort and we are so grateful for all of the support!

Marineland school trip cancelled after hearing from Hamilton mom
Stoney Creek parent Jennifer Jamieson has successfully petitioned Mountain View Elementary school to cancel an in-the-works field trip to the beleaguered Marineland aquarium and theme park — and she's hoping to convince the public board to follow suit and ban trips there altogether.

If Florida is going to go into Tuscaloosa and beat Alabama, it will do so without one of its special teams stalwarts.
Florida kicker Caleb Sturgis was not on the team flight to Tuscaloosa, and will miss the game, and perhaps the next six to eight weeks, with a herniated disc and a stress fracture in his back. Punter Chas Henry will handle kicking duties.
It appears that the Gators will have Jeff Demps for the SEC Championship rematch. The running back made the flight and boarded without any brace or protective boot on his left foot, injured in last week's game against Kentucky.

Data on the lifetime prevalence of psychiatric disorders in South Africa are of interest, not only for the purposes of developing evidence-based mental health policy, but also in view of South Africa's particular historical and demographic circumstances.
A nationally representative household survey was conducted between 2002 and 2004 using the World Health Organization Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) to generate diagnoses. The data-set analysed included 4351 adult South Africans of all ethnic groups.
Lifetime prevalence of DSM–IV/CIDI disorders was determined for anxiety disorders (15.8%), mood disorders (9.8%), substance use disorders (13.4%) and any disorder (30.3%). Lifetime prevalence of substance use disorders differed significantly across ethnic groups. Median age at onset was earlier for substance use disorders (21 years) than for anxiety disorders (32 years) or mood disorders (37 years).
In comparison with data from other countries, South Africa has a particularly high lifetime prevalence of substance use disorders. These disorders have an early age at onset, providing an important target for the planning of local mental health services.

The classic caprese salad — tomatoes paired with fresh mozzarella and torn, peppery basil leaves — is such a delicious blast of summer.
But having been there and eaten that so many times, this tomato season we decided to dream up two fresh takes on the tomato salad — an all-America version of the caprese and a grill-friendly take on another Italian staple, the panzanella (bread and tomato salad).
American Tomato Salad
Serves four. From Alison Ladman.
1 tablespoon mild olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
4 heirloom tomatoes, sliced
4 ounces Humboldt Fog or Maytag Blue cheese, sliced or crumbled
1 cup torn mixed soft herbs (such as chives, basil, cilantro and parsley)
Flaked sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste
Grilled Bread and Tomato Salad
Serves six. From Associated Press Food Editor J.M. Hirsch.
2 pints cherry tomatoes
1 medium red onion, thickly sliced
Olive oil
Kosher salt and ground black pepper
1 loaf (about 19 ounces) sourdough bread, cut or torn into 2-inch chunks
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 cup shaved Parmesan cheese
4 cloves garlic, minced
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
Zest and juice of 1 lime
1 cup fresh basil leaves
1 cup baby arugula

Fraser could you please contact me on email@example.com
Sorry for the late responses I've been away skiing and stayed safe! Thanks for your kind words Ceclia and Apolo I'm on Twitter @fmasefield.
Dear Fraser, how can we communicate with you on twitter ? Secondly, I would like to find all the articles that have to do with old seasons (reviews for example like this one). But in the archive section , they are too many. I love the articles that have to do with old drivers or old seasons. Especially when photos are shown. Is it possible to find all the related articles and photos in the site ? Thank you
Loved your articles!.keep it up ^^
For us mere mortals not living on the British Isles, could you please use pounds or kilos as a weight measure. The stones in my California backyard are of different shapes and weight. Thank you.

Loved your articles so far, hope there'll be many more to come.
