HoopsHype Ryan Hollins rumors
The Heat likely will add another veteran center at the minimum to replace Oden, but it has to be someone who's content with not playing much. (Barring injury or foul trouble, it's hard to see many minutes available, with Chris Bosh and Chris Andersen sharing virtually all the time at center; and Josh McRoberts, Udonis Haslem, Birdman and occasionally Danny Granger at power forward.) Among those still available: Elton Brand, Andray Blatche (Heat has avoided him before because of maturity, behavior issues), Charlie Villanueva, Ryan Hollins, Ekpe Udoh, Byron Mullins, Greg Stiesma and Andrew Bynum (who can't stay healthy). Miami Herald
Clippers center Ryan Hollins, on the NBA marketing sleeved jerseys in an effort to broaden their appeal to fans who don't like traditional jerseys: "You don't really go to a party with a jersey anymore. Back then, it was the thing to do if you're 'that guy.' 'That guy' means like you [say], 'Look at that guy with the jersey.' You don't want to be that guy." Los Angeles Times
A handful of celebrities and athletes were on hand for the game, as hundreds of eager fans watched their favorite NBA players take the football field. Barnes' LA Clippers teammates Blake Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, and Ryan Hollins joined him on the field. DeMar DeRozan, Nick Young and Metta World Peace were also in attendance, playing for Snoop Dogg's team. HoopsAddict.com
Ryan Hollins: #ClipperNation we have some unfinished business!!!! Blessed to be back in a @LAClippers uniform! I'm #ALLIN Twitter @TheRyanHollins
Marc J. Spears: Clippers to re-sign reserve center @therealryanhollins to a one-year contract, sources tell Yahoo! Sports. Twitter @SpearsNBAYahoo
Dan Woike: Clippers will try and speak with all of their FA's tonight -- Matt Barnes, Lamar Odom, Chauncey Billups, Ryan Hollins, Ronny Turiaf Twitter @DanWoikeSports
Dave McMenamin: Ronny Turiaf, Ryan Hollins and DaJuan Summers are at Doc's intro presser, standing in the back of the room Twitter @mcten
Hollins, a 7-foot center, picked on Goran Dragic, a 6-3 point guard, with a backcourt Flagrant Foul 1 on an inbound play because Dragic tried to use his body into Hollins for separation to get open against his pressing (again, with a 25 -point lead and nine minutes to go). Hollins pressed his left arm across Dragic's chest and ran it around his neck as he dragged Dragic from the paint to the Suns bench. Jermaine O'Neal got involved immediately while official Billy Kennedy walked alongside them. When it got toward the sideline, Michael Beasley shoved Hollins away. Hollins and Beasley were ejected. Arizona Republic
"He hooked me and then I tried to separate," Dragic said. "He was choking me and I tried to get free. That's it. I don't know why that happened. It was just a dirty play. I tried to separate but he's strong. "You have to stand for yourself and get separated. Michael helped and separated us. I feel sorry for him because he got ejected. He was a true teammate and he helped me. I would do the same thing. It's hard when the big guy is going against a point guard." Arizona Republic
"He choked Gogi," Beasley said of Hollins' foul on Dragic. "These guys in this locker room are my family. They're my brothers. You're not going to choke my brother and sit there and smile about it. I feel like the only reason he did that was because it was Gogi. He's bigger than Gogi. I'd do it a million times. I'd do it for anyone in this locker room. That's not right to do anybody. You want to pick on somebody. I got a 7-footer to my right (O'Neal) that likes that kind of stuff. Don't pick on our smallest guys and then to put him in a headlock and hold it for five minutes? I just wanted to get him off Gogi and he threw his fists up at me. That's when the situation got heated." Arizona Republic
The Los Angeles Clippers today signed free agent center Ryan Hollins. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not announced. NBA.com
David Aldridge: Nets will entertain Nazr Mohammed this weekend, and likely to sign him soon after. Brooklyn looked at Ryan Hollins, too, but Hollins to LAC. Twitter
The Clippers and free-agent center Ryan Hollins agreed to a one-year deal on Thursday. Hollins is expected to sign a one-year contract for the veteran minimum of $1.065 million. "Ryan is happy to be a Clipper," Hollins' agent, Todd Ramasar, said. "He's happy to be back in L.A. and he's looking forward to helping the Clippers." Los Angeles Times
Todd Ramasar: Ryan Hollins has verbally agreed to be a LA Clipper. Twitter

Sample Reviews
Both Sensei pretty remarkable. My group travels up to New "
When I first started there, it was because it was close to home and reasonably priced. There was, however, a strong odor in the was the only problem with this very well stocked "
Joined two years ago when they took over weights, answer - they're on order - for two years now ?? The sound system was never that great and now for a couple months there is none in the room for the instructors to use. Oh Yeah I forgot - it's on order!
It is well kept, usually there are enough machines available, it is rarely too crowded to keep pace with your workout, the staff is friendly, personal trainers are certified, friendly and helpful. The men's locker room could use some repairs - some lockers are damaged, some shower heads are missing - but it is clean."
They were bought by another company and they are very good. The rates were considerably higher, so we decided to go elsewhere. I'm not sure how to compare the price to other places, but the price was raised considerably."
The personal trainer that I was using in another gym moved to this one and so I moved with him. It is very personalized and individualized. Trainers are professional, knowledgeable and certified. They are very flexible with my schedule. They just make it a very friendly environment and positive experience even when you are practicing like crazy."
I used to use the weight machines and the swimming pool. I had multiple locations that I could use and I like their availability to me. They are really nice and the only real reason I stopped going there was because of the cost and they didn't have child services. They didn't have day care for my little ones so when they get older I would probably go back to them."
We think we're the best, and we can prove it.

"The fate of an entire industry seems to hang on the fate of every book, and the feeling is perfectly understandable," said Leon Wieseltier, the literary editor of The New Republic. "People who know how to publish books are in danger of being put out of business by people who don't but think they do."So: out of fear of piracy, at the same time as the cost of publishing (not printing, mind you, but publishing) has gone through the floor, the publishing industry collectively made the decision to hand near-total control of their customer base to Amazon wrapped in a neat little DRM-colored bow. And then they tried to recover from that staggeringly shortsighted business decision with engaging in criminal business practices.
David Young, Hachette's chief executive, says: Publishers can't meet to discuss standards because of antitrust concerns. This has had a chilling effect on reaching consensus."You read that right: the chief executive officer of a major publisher said, in the business section of the New York Times, that laws prohibiting collusion and price-fixing are having a "chilling effect" on attempts to collude and fix prices. It's like seeing a letter to the editor from a loanshark, saying that laws against charging ridiculous interest and breaking people's kneecaps is making business difficult. It's hard to know how you could make an easier target of yourself.

An Econometric Analysis of Costs and Scale Economies in the Nursing Home Industry
AbstractThis paper examines costs in the nursing home industry, an issue of concern to policymakers because Medicaid pays about half of the expenditures on nursing home care. The paper estimates two cost functions for a sample of Texas nursing homes in 1983: one assumes that all homes provide the same quality of care, the other considers quality differences. The results indicate that there are economies of scale in the production of nursing home care. This suggests that many states could serve the same number of Medicaid patients at a lower total cost if occupancy rates were higher, and that a fixed rate reimbursement policy could lower costs.

A homeless male war vet up on a felony charge of assault is both legally and socially at a huge disadvantage over someone like me. To simply point to his gender as if that confers an advantage is not only deeply inadequate, it's worryingly reminiscent of fascism.

When you find yourself enjoying something like cooking you start to wonder if it means you're weak or a bad feminist. You have to question every natural desire you have and wonder if you truly enjoy the thing or if you are just conditioned to like it.

Thanks goes out to garlicfire for this brew.
Pours a nice dark brown color, nice carbonation, nice little fizzy off-white head, with some minimal sticky lacing left behind. The nose is malty, with some very nice chocolate/toffee notes, bready. The taste is malty, slightly sweet, nice chocolate/toffee notes. Medium body. Drinkable, I like this one, recommended.

Mayflower Autumn Wheat Ale has a brown body that proves to be a dark ruby color when held up to the light. The tan head us fairly solid looking and is made up of small, tightly packed bubbles. The retention is good and the lacing covers my glass in sheets.
The aroma is what I would expect from a dark wheat beer, and it is rather good. A ton of fruity yeast characteristics team up with a hint of spiciness from the same source. Bread-like wheat malts combine with rich malts that smell like caramel and toffee.
The beginning features all of the wheat and yeast characteristics. A slightly bread-like twang from the yeast and lots of yeast-induced fruit flavors that range from banana (or bubble gum) to a little bit of a darker fruit taste. Next comes the spicy, phenolic yeast qualities, that transition into darker malts. The finish features the darker malts that are rich and sweet with caramel or toffee flavors, but they also a lot of chocolate that I missed in the aroma. The finish, and especially the aftertaste, even have some roasted malt flavor to them. The more I drink of this beer, the more that roasted flavor reminds me of charred malts, and the more it asserts itself. I don't mind it though. Mayflower produced a wheat ale with a pretty good balance of yeast, light wheat, and rich sweet malts. My only complaint is a hint of an iron flavor in the finish; Autumn Wheat Ale is a winner as far as I'm concerned.
The carbonation is high, but the body manages to be a bit creamy and quite nice.
I'm a fan of mayflower, but this beer exceeded my expectations. On a pretty gold fall night, this was a great choice.

Autumn Wheat Ale begins with rich, bread-like aromas, reminiscent of fresh loaves of whole wheat. Spicy notes accompany this, adding layers of pepper and light clove. A good layer of citrus (lemon, orange, grapefruit) rounds out the nose's primary flavors.
On the tongue, the brew brings an immediate toasted wheat and malt base, with not only the bready notes from the nose, but a noticeable, quasi-sour maltiness, somewhat akin to sourdough, or even rye. Brown sugars help somewhat soften this, and fruit esters (orange, banana) mixed with clove and lychee nut add further flavor. There's also a good toasted pecan base, as well as a hop hit, which brings tart grapefruit to the mix. The aftertaste is a continuation of the main mouthful, with emphasis on the rye and more sour flavors (though nothing approaching a Flemish ale). Mouthfeel is medium-light, and carbonation is medium.
Overall, this is quite good beer, and the rich, spicy, bready flavors make this a nice accompaniment to encroaching Fall weather. The beer does want for a slight boost in sugars to further combat the tart and sour flavors, but even without it, I'd go back for seconds.

Well, it certainly is different.
Crystal clear dark brown with a smoothed out tan head. Consistent retention leaves a few lacey webs. Aroma is dry dirt, toasted pumpernickel and char. Has a vanilla/licorice barrel aged type of sweet going on too. Taste like German dark wheat bread with bitter drying in back. Mild caramel sweetness to balance the roasted elements. Spicy. Highly carbonated and fairly thin which is the only flaw in this beer.
Mayflower is one of my favorite breweries due to the inherent earthy flavors in all their beers and this one falls right in line. Don't see this style to often. Great, great campfire beer.

poured from a 12oz bottle into a pint glass.
a: much darker than expected. dark mahogany in color with a thin white head that settles into a thin lacing.
s: very nice malty aroma. sweet caramel with notes of biscuits. not bad.
t: sweet malty flavor. notes of caramel again and toasted bready malts. subtle hints of clove and banana (yeast). well balanced and drinkable.
m: smooth mouthfeel.
i had this last year and was not impressed. this year it seems to be much bolder and maltier. much better. recommended.

From the 12 fl. oz. bottle. 2012 batch. Sampled on November 17, 2012.
The pour is a handsome looking garnet, dark amber with a whole lot of soapy tan head that slowly simmers down.
Wheat is played down on the nose considering it is an Autumn Wheat Ale. But there is a rich ester of dark, roasted malts and the slightest hint of hops.
The body is medium and smooth.
Like the aroma the taste is focused more on the dark, roasted caramel malts with a tickle of crispy hops leading to a low bitterness on the back side. But the wheat is hard to come by.
As a Dunkel this is quite good.

Dome settled head that leaves some chunky clumps of lace. Ruby brown color where only the faintest of light passes.
The smell reminds me of tree bark. More conventionally, I detect some darker, dry malts with what I believe to be black patent.
Flavorful dark malts, light bittering hops. The body is quite thin with an average level of carbonation. I taste things similar to bark like sassafras. This is a dry beer with a very short aftertaste.

Poured from a 12 ounce bottle into a Samuel Adams pint glass. Purchased at Wakefield Liquors in Wakefield, RI.
A- Pours a clear, amber-red body with a medium off white head that reduces slowly and leaves little lacing.
S- Caramel, toffee, bready-malt backbone.
T - Starts with a caramel, lighly roasted malt flavor and ends nutty with vanilla undertones. Aftertaste is piney and hoppy to balance the malt.
M- Medium carbonation, medium body. Crisp.
Overall a flavorful, nicely balanced autumn brew. It hit all the flavors that I like in an octoberfest. Worth a try.

On-tap at Atwood's
A: The beer pours a dark amber/brown color with a big tan head.
S: The nose has a mild roast note with a nice hint of banana. There is some malt sweetness in the form of bread and toast. There might even be some mild clove along with a hint of chocolate.
T: Minimal banana flavor followed by lots of roast and toasted malt. Sweet bread malt flavors with a mild sweetness of chocolate. There is a little bit of bitterness, especially as the beer sits for a moment.
M: Medium in body with medium carbonation.
O: A pretty enjoyable beer, I thought. Though, I would have preferred more of a traditional dunkelweizen.

This week was the first time the Malcontent company spent the whole weekend together, and both days were packed. On Saturday we had a special visit from Jel Beader from British Military Fitness, who put the company through their paces, teaching us to stand to attention and how to march in step. By the end of the session they were marching all around the Globe exhibition, showing off their skills. Brogan, who plays Passarello, describes the class;
Brogan (playing Passarello)
This week our rehearsal was spread over two days and we were introduced to the magnificent Jel Bearder from British Military Fitness. Yes, you heard me correctly, Military Fitness. The session specifies in helping with skills such as focus, posture and working as a team. Upon walking into the room it's safe to say we all jumped to attention when Jel announced for us to 'Shh' and 'Be Quiet'. Gathered in the corner of the room we all huddled together in anticipation and some of us even fear. The workshop started and we were separated into 3 ranks. Throughout the session we were put through several action packed activities that really gave you a sense of the armed forces. In reply to any of Jel's questions we were told to reply with 'YES, JEL' and to be honest we weren't very good at it to start with. From marching to push-ups and crazy feet to strength competitions, we were all well and truly shattered the next day. Personally I found the experience to be absolutely crazy but all in all it was a fun and enjoyable day. 'Actors are Athletes.'
On Sunday Phil Cumbus, a regular onstage at the Globe, ran a workshop for the company that encouraged them to explore archetypes and actions.
Danish (playing Equato and Prologue)
On Sunday, we had the opportunity to participate in a workshop run by a wonderful Globe actor, Philip Cumbus. This was in part to discover more about how to play a character and learn the skills necessary in achieving this, but also to have a fun time with fellow thespians. The last time I met Phil was on the Globe stage in the final performance of Macbeth, where he played Malcolm and so it was nice to meet him once again. That is one of the best things about being part of the GYP, you get to meet admirable and talented individuals again and again, so there's always a sense of community. The workshop was very much focused on aspects which we had touched upon during previous rehearsals, but hadn't fully explored. We looked at the different archetypes in Elizabethan/Jacobean drama (the King, the Warrior, the Joker and the Carer) and how Shakespeare and his contemporaries used these archetypes to convey a certain aura about that character. Once establishing the elements involved in those archetypal mind sets, we began manifesting these through movement and performed an excerpt from Romeo and Juliet (Scene 2, Act 2). As we journeyed through the text, we saw just how many different interpretations one can draw from a only a passage of a scene. Perhaps that is what has kept Shakespeare's work so relevant in this day and age. Phil explained that text and the different ways it can be spoken is what excites him about acting; I couldn't agree more

Further fall in Wirral Jobseekers' Allowance claimants
1:20pm Wednesday 14th May 2014 in News By Craig Manning, Chief Reporter
THE number of people claiming Jobseeker's Allowance in Wirral has fallen again as new figures show employment nationally is at a record high.
Official figures from the Office for National Statistics out today show 6,098 people claimed the benefit in April - a drop of 254 on the previous month's 6,352.
Nationally, more than 30.4 million people are now in work - the highest since records began in 1971.
Unemployment has fallen by 133,000 to 2.2 million, the lowest for five years.
Wirral West MP and Minister for Employment, Esther McVey said: "As the recovery takes hold, more people are able to get a job or set up their own business and become the employers of tomorrow.
"Each and every person who has made a new start or hired someone new is helping to make Britain a more prosperous and confident place to be.
"We will continue to support those in and out of work who want to get on and fulfil their ambitions for a more secure future."
Wirral South MP Alison McGovern said: "We all want to see signs of recovery in our economy as it has been a tough last four years for many people.
"Today's statistics do show a fall in unemployment which on the surface seems encouraging however I sense that most people are not feeling an economic recovery.
"We also still have big problems to tackle with regards to getting young people into work and with underemployment.
"We have seen how prevalent zero hour contracts have become which is something I have been concerned about for a long while and I welcomed Ed Miliband's pledge to tackle abuse of these contracts should Labour be in government in 2015 as part of Labour's wider plan to tackle the cost of living crisis.
"Labour would also introduce a jobs guarantee to tackle youth unemployment."

Ed Miliband is making promises he cannot keep and is just another liar that will come out with this sort of mumbojumb just to win votes.

Downstairs was a small area with the counter, food and products displayed. Upstairs was the barn's loft area, which was open, airy, bright and full of natural light. There was comfortable lounge seating as well as table seating. Merchandise was displayed in a minimal way nicely almost like decor around the perimeter of the large open area. I found it quiet lovely and zen like.

New Low-Income Housing in Jackson Tied To Revitalization and Economic InitiativeBy Paul Boger | Published 13 Feb 2014 07:14pm |
Construction will soon begin on 88 new townhouses in downtown Jackson as part of a program to provide housing for low income families. MPB's Paul Boger reports state officials hope the homes will attract medical professionals and other public servants.
The Helm's Place Housing Development will consist of more than 80 new townhouses along Farish street, contributing to the ongoing revitalization campaign within the Capitol City.
Jackson Mayor Chokwe Lumumba says programs like these are good for the area.
"I think this is a good opportunity." said Lumumba. "I've seen a number of these developments, the ones in South Jackson and Flag Chapel Estates, and they're working out very well. This is vital to a growing economy. We have to have places for people to live, and they have to be affordable places."
While the homes are meant for low-income families, they are not typical government subsidized housing. Instead, they are built and financed through state and federal tax credits making the homes cheaper to build, and therefore cheaper to rent. Clarence Chapman is with Chartre Consulting -- the group responsible for developing and administering the area.
"We provide market-rate homes, and put low-income residents in them." said Chapman. "It's really a market rate affordable housing development. Our residents have to pay rent. It is not a subsidized rent. It's just a lower rent that they get a quality home for because of the tax credits."
The project is also tied to Governor Phil Bryant's Mississippi Medical Corridor Initiative, a program designed to attract more healthcare jobs and professionals to the state.
"These are homes nurses can afford." said Bryant. "These are not government housing, these are tax credit homes that are affordable that we hope medical assistants, law enforcement, even teachers will be able to come to this medical corridor -- this revitalization of Downtown Jackson."
Officials say they hope to have the first families moving into the housing by the end of November.

Carrie's blog: Gearing up for another season
Carrie Hainge tries out next season's Salomon and Bonfire kit and reveals what's hot and worth talking about
Today I made my way up to The Snow Centre indoor slope at Hemel Hempstead with Ski Club PR Manager Vicky Norman for a morning trying out the latest ski and snowboard equipment and clothing from Salomon and Bonfire.
When it comes to Salomon hardware, there's no ignoring the new BBR ski with its tip inspired by a surfboard, rocker shape for powder skiing and narrow base underfoot to allow for carving on piste. I tried out a pair and they didn't disappoint; they glided effortlessly on The Snow Centre slope and were easy to turn.
So what type of skier is the BBR aimed at? Well, with two models, the more flexible 7.9 and tougher 8.9, anyone from an intermediate to a powder hound will feel the benefit of the wide tip and narrow base. The BBR can be pre-ordered from Snow+Rock before its global release this September at £400 for the 7.9 and £500 for the 8.9 and will also be available soon at Ellis Brigham.
The Enduro range (which replaces the Tornado range) was something I sadly didn't get to try as the skis had been eagerly snapped up by other testers. Watch out for the Enduro this season though, it's a key all-mountain ski that offers both good on-piste skiing and an easy ride through the powder.
I did get to try Salomon's latest addition to the ski accessories market – goggles. The new line offers three key features – the XTEND frame concept (a larger lens with 20% more vision), a Thermo Control System (to stop fogging) and a custom frame. I could certainly see that little bit more and with fresh designs and a clean look, Salomon has entered a good offering into the goggles arena.
Clothing-wise, next season's Salomon ski kit is bright and colourful whereas the Bonfire snowboarding range has gone for more earthy colours. Having said that, the Bonfire men's Sitka jacket is a bright two-tone jacket with large pockets at the front – channelling a bit of an 80s style!
Bonfire's women's 'Oh Yeah' snowboard, as tested by Vicky, has some strong graphics, reminiscent of the 3D look. "It offers really striking graphics and for entry level boarders is a great snowboard to progress easily with" said Vicky.
So some great kit from Salomon and Bonfire for next season; trying it all out at The Snow Centre has really made me look forward to the winter ahead. Don't forget to use your Ellis Brigham 10% voucher and online discount if you're a member to snap up some new kit for less and keep visiting our discounts section for other ways to save on Salomon and Bonfire kit.
