Purpose of Physician Assistant Programs
A physician assistant program trains the aspiring students in preventing, maintaining and treating human illness with the help of a variety of health care services which were used by physicians before. With the help of these programs, a person learns to become a competent, competent and efficient physician assistant professional. A physician assistant is mainly a licensed health care professional who provides health care services to the people under the supervision of a physician.
The work area of a physician assistant is not only restricted to hospitals and clinics but, they can also serve the medical needy in schools or companies. For attaining license to practice as a physician assistant, a student needs a bachelor's degree or a master's degree with clinical internship in the health care industry. The renewal of the license is also necessary after a gap of every few years.
Physician assistant programs teach the students with the help of a medical model instead of the nursing model used for nursing aspirants. The profile of a physician assistant should not be confused with medical assistants. Unlike medical assistants, the job of a physician assistant is not to perform administrative and simple clinical tasks but, they provide health services working as a team with the supervising physicians.
These programs generally follow semester system which is further divided into regular class teaching and hands on training for better understanding of the students.
The most important thing to be considered before enrolling for a physician assistant program is to check whether it's certified or not. A certified degree always helps in getting better job opportunities in this field. Apart from this, there are various online physician assistant programs as well which can be taken by the students as per their own ease.
Top physician Assistant Schools
How to Apply for a Physician Assistant Program?
Due to the increased demand for physician assistants in the last few years, the number of physician assistant programs has also seen a steep rise.
As per the data, there are around 164 accredited physician assistant programs in the United States of America. The common feature of all these programs is the facility of intensive classroom teaching and laboratory study combined with clinical practice provided to the aspiring students.
Primary requirements of various training programs differ in a few aspects so; everything should be checked before enrolling in a physician assistant program. Many programs ask for prior health care experience in the health care industry.
Training programs which offer bachelor's degrees require a minimum of two year college degree and programs providing master's degree require a bachelor's degree or an appropriate undergraduate degree with a good GPA. Though a college degree is not always necessary but, the student must have taken the college-level courses on basic sciences, math, English or writing. Apart from this, the students should also be aware about some specific science courses like anatomy or physiology, microbiology, physics, computer sciences and medical terminology.
Aspiring students should apply to a number of programs as each program has a limited number of seats and their selection criteria may also vary so, if not in one, the students will get a chance to study in any other institution. The application should be forwarded to the training programs in such a way that the previous education and employment experiences add to the chances for admission.
Students should apply through CASPA or the Central Application Service for Physician Assistants for the subscribed programs and post applications on the concerned websites for the concerned programs which are not subscribed by CASPA.
In both the cases, applicants should abide by the programs' published application deadlines and try to complete the application process as early as possible. Students should also be ready with their reasons for choosing a program in physician assistance as some application committees ask such questions to judge the interest line of the student.
Qualification and Cost for Physician Assistant Programs
The qualification and the cost required for completing a physician assistant program varies according to the kind of program one enrolls in.
If a student is applying for a bachelor's degree in physician assistance, then he should hold a minimum of two years of college degree with science as the main stream. For attaining a master's degree in physician assistant program, the students should have a bachelor's degree or any other equivalent degree with good grades in science stream.
So, in simple terms, it can be said that all prominent physician assistant programs give preference to the students who have prior medical experience. In total, there are almost 164 accredited physician assistant programs in the United States but, it depends on the discretion of the student how he chooses the best program according to his needs.
The expenditures involved in a physician assistant program play an important role in deciding the physician assistant program one wants to opt for. Apart from this, one should also be able to fulfill the extra expenses required for the program. The additional expenses include food, books and other living expenditures.
So, it's very necessary to choose a program which suits one's ability to spend. The fee charged by various physician assistant schools may also vary however; normally it ranges from $2,200 to $99,500. The difference in the fees is mainly due to the variation in the education level, practical training and other additional facilities offered by the training schools. The charge for private institutions is comparatively higher than the government training colleges.
The kind of courses or degree programs taken by the students also brings variation in the fee structure such as the expenditure for a master's degree is different from the bachelor's degree program. However, keeping the expenses in mind, various training programs for physician assistance also offer scholarship programs, funding programs and educational loans to the students.
Significance of Physician Assistant National Certifying Exam
As physician assistance is one of the booming professions these days due to the stable opportunities with lucrative salaries in it so, the aspiring students should try their best to clear the Physician Assistant National Certifying Exam conducted by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants as it enhances the job opportunities to a large extent.

Backpacker Magazine – March 2012
Hug pebbly beaches and cliffs along Superior shores.
Ontario's largest park, Pukaskwa, sees just 10,000 annual visitors, most of whom stay close to their car. Set off on foot to wander virtually alone through boreal forest full of wolf, black bear, and moose.
Pukaswka's only backcountry route is a sweet one: 37.8 miles of rolling trail, sometimes hard to follow, along rocky coast dotted with beach-front campsites. The track reopened in 2011 after a three-year rebuild of two suspension bridges.
For a five-day itinerary, hire a boat shuttle (pricy) or turn around at Oiseau Bay. Better yet, hike the whole thing as a 76-mile out-and-back. Either way, build in bad-weather days; the route's granite slabs turn super-slick when wet.
Start from the Hattie Cove Visitor Center and travel occasionally marshy track through black spruce, jack pine, white birch, and aspen. Cross the White River on Chigamiwinigum Gorge Bridge (mile five), then climb bare granite domes and slabs to Willow Bay (mile 10.2), with excellent camping on a long, curving sand beach. From there to Oiseau Bay's expansive beachside views (mile 19), the trail hugs the coast past five inlets dotted with rocky islands.
South of Oiseau, the last 16 miles are more rugged and less well-marked. The section begins with cliff-brink walking en route to Fisherman's Cove, followed by a strenuous trek over rocky terrain to White Gravel River at mile 29. Push on along buffed dirt trail to White Spruce Harbor (mile 31), an intimate beach camp. The last 6.8 miles to North Swallow Harbor are slow due to brush and rocky footing, but your reward is a lonely, misty beach alive with pounding surf and the haunting call of loons.

Updating language of a module
11 October 2008 at 3:13pm Last edited: 12 October 2008 2:10am
I want to use some of the modules. Like forum but it's translation is uncomplete.
Now I apply to translate service to complete it and others. But if I install it now, is there a possibility to update it's language after?
(of course without making uninstall and install again to protect its contents)
Ok ok sure there is a way
But how?
And thanks for all given reply in advance.

Thats too bad for me if I'm the only one who needs a non-englih forum module.
But although I'm sure that somebody knows it.
Isn't there a way to update installed modules languages?

Usually the translatable strings of a module can be found in the "lang" directory of a module. There should be a php file for every language that's currently translated. If your language is missing, you can just translate the contents of en_US.php.
You can do that even after the installation of the module, it shouldn't break anything.

Thanks banal.
I also think like that but just worried about if SS reads lang files and dumps to database for using them.
But seems lang resources read directly from files. The best way.
I'll start to install.

I'm not sure I understand your question - so you have untranslated text in the forum module, right? Does that mean its not translated into your language, or not translatable at all?
You can sign up at http://translate.silverstripe.com to complete your specific language, and download the generated lang files "on the fly" - you don't need to wait for a release to do this. This is preferred to modifying language files directly, as other people won't benefit from your new translations.
If you have stuff thats not translatable in the first place, have a look at http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=translation and http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=i18n#collecting_text
Re: Updating language of a module
2 November 2008 at 6:45am
I was asking for,
If I install the forum module now, with missing translation (in my lang). Is there a possibility to update the lang after install? Sure that without losing forum DB.
Got my answer but dosent matter cos I removed the forum and blog module cos both of them are untolerable buggy.
And the second part, I already submitted to the translation team but couldnt go far away cos of time matters.
Thanks for your interest.

JAG35 at NAB 2012: a $1300 Wireless Follow Focus, Friction Follow Focus, RED Rig, and Slider
JAG35 makes one of the cheapest wireless follow focuses in existence. Now they've improved upon their design and made the entire system much more durable. They also are introducing a clever follow focus that is friction based for newer lenses, but doesn't have to be mounted to the side like many other friction-based follow focuses. I talked with Jehu Garcia from JAG35 and he introduced those products, as well as a custom RED Scarlet/Epic rig and a new slider they are developing.
Jehu Garcia from JAG35:
The one big complaint about the JAG35 wireless follow focus has been the excessive noise. This has greatly been reduced, but if you watch the video, it is still much louder than a lot of other similar products out there. For the money though ($1300 for the one motor kit, $1800 for two), if you really need one, and your camera and sound will be more than a foot away from your talent, it's a great option. The friction follow focus is a really interesting design, and I have to say that it was very responsive when I was using it, and if I wasn't looking, I would think it was a traditional fully rigged follow focus. Many other fiction designs mount the knob off angle to the camera, but this design keeps it parallel to the lens, which is absolutely essential for a real working environment.
If you're looking for cheap rigs, JAG35 definitely has them. It also seems that they are getting into more high-end gear as they grow as a company – like their RED-specific rig, which looks good, but is likely out of the budget range of many of their consumers.

We're all here for the same reason: to better ourselves as writers, directors, cinematographers, producers, photographers... whatever our creative pursuit. Criticism is valuable as long as it is constructive, but personal attacks are grounds for deletion; you don't have to agree with us to learn something. We're all here to help each other, so thank you for adding to the conversation!
Wow, still incredibly noisy with v2 – those sound waves sounded like they were in competition with the crowd. I'd rather wait for the RedRock one.
Daniel Mimura on 05.12.12 @ 4:15PM
I don't think you can judge the noise of a FF by a video like this. There were complaints about the V1 being noisy, but just looking at the video it doesn't sound any louder than an M-One motor on a Bartech & those are pretty quiet.
Joe Marine on 05.12.12 @ 6:07PM
Well having been next to it, I can tell you that this guy was pretty loud, and the Redrock microRemote motor was practically silent in comparison.
Ryan on 05.5.12 @ 2:17PM
Weird price point for that kind of product. People in the market for wireless follow focuses are definitely looking for quality first, if the price point is that low you have to wonder.
No hard stops?
Joe Marine on 05.5.12 @ 10:02PM
You can set the wireless follow focus to have hard stops, but the friction follow focus, like most follow focuses out there, does not have hard stops.
Daniel Mimura on 05.12.12 @ 4:17PM
I question their motor's pulling ability b/c they use such a big gear…my guess is that they use such a big gear because the motor isn't really strong enough. I don't know for sure, but it seems to me like it would make it more difficult tightening the gear to the lens this way.
If it runs off of 3v, I *really* question if it's strong enough, especially for PL mount lenses. I know he said its strong enough, but I remain skeptical until I hear real world results.
I picked up a friction follow focus. Didn't work at all — it failed to drive the lens. It could be that the example I have is faulty (seems likely), but basically there is no gear system, the back of the white disc on the knob drives the rubber wheel directly by friction, and on my example at least there wasn't enough friction between the disc and the wheel to drive the lens — manually turning the wheel actuated the lens just fine however, so the issue is internal to the device and not between the device and the lens.
It seemed like it was too good to be true, and was. I've put a RMA request in — I just wanted to avoid someone else wasting their time and/or $200. If they can send me one that works, I'd be willing to give it a try, but I have asked for a refund in preference.
I have 10 lenses that need gears, so I'm currently undecided about the best option. I am tempted to make my own set of Duclos-style solid Delrin gears and have done with it, but that means a lot of machine shop time. Making good ones probably requires an involute cutter, but I might get away with just profile milling the teeth directly. What gears do you all use?
I'm also tempted to build my own servo driven FF, actually not too hard, but just getting my lenses sorted out is my first step really.
keoki on 07.5.12 @ 4:44AM
im sold. it looks like smooth accurate wireless pulling to me. I think the large gear is more work for the motor servo to push. its large to acheive a longer throw for more lens revolution degrees. NIce workmanship for a pricepoint thats the lowest Ive seen….and its available NOW! thanks Jag35. can i get a discount now!!??
keoki on 07.5.12 @ 4:52AM
I bet if this wireless focus had a redrock sticker on it with blue knobs, all you vidiots would pay 3x as much and have it sit in your camera bag forever instead of SHOOTING FILMS!!!

UNITED NATIONS (AP) - The U.N. Security Council has voted unanimously for tough new sanctions to punish North Korea for its latest nuclear test, a move that sparked a furious Pyongyang to threaten a nuclear strike against the United States.
The vote Thursday by the U.N.'s most powerful body on a resolution drafted by North Korea's closest ally, China, and the United States sends a powerful message to North Korea that the international community condemns its ballistic missile and nuclear tests - and its repeated violation of Security Council resolutions.
The new sanctions are aimed at making it more difficult for North Korea to finance and obtain material for its weapons programs.

Director's Statement
It is in the Office of Clinical Legal Education that law students' developing lawyering skills, theoretical knowledge, and commitment to service and community coalesce to further the College of Law's emphasis on legal education as a public good. Under the careful supervision of College of Law faculty, clinic students represent clients with real legal problems.
The Office of Clinical Legal Education provides two different opportunities for students to integrate their newly-acquired skills and knowledge: students can enroll in one of seven in-house clinical courses or participate in local, national, or international externship placements.
Helping the Community
In addition to providing opportunities for students, the Office of Clinical Legal Education provides much-needed legal services to residents of central New York. Many low-income residents of our community have no access to free or low-cost legal services. The need far outstrips available services. Syracuse University College of Law seeks to help fill this gap by providing free services to eligible clients while offering challenging learning opportunities for law students. Eager to begin practice, students apply their enthusiasm, energy, and talent to their first clients.
Potential Clients & Areas of Law
In the in-house clinics, students may represent indigent defendants in misdemeanor criminal cases; parents and children in child support, visitation, and custody matters; taxpayers in disputes with the IRS; litigants in disability and civil rights matters in federal courts; and community groups needing advice, counseling and transactional assistance. In the externship placements, students work under the guiding hand of experienced practitioners, in settings ranging from judicial chambers to prosecution and attorney general offices to legal aid and other public interest settings.
Students enrolled in the clinics and the externship program also participate in formal seminars and have other, regular interactions with their supervisors and mentors. These classes, individual meetings, and electronic communications are designed to encourage and develop the essential qualities of successful practitioners: competent lawyering skills including problem solving, interviewing, client counseling, fact investigation, research, drafting complaints and transactional documents, and litigation skills; an attention to ethical and professional norms; good judgment; reflective practice; and an awareness of the myriad factors that must be addressed to develop practical solutions to clients' legal problems.

LW: Well Magpie, it's that time of the year again - the WNBL finals.
And just like last year, our Bendigo Spirit enter the finals as the minor premiers and clearly the team to beat as they chase their second championship in a row.
What a home and away season it has been for the Spirit, who have been near unbeatable for the past two years.
Their 22-2 record gave them a six-game buffer clear at the top of the ladder from their second semi-final opponents this Sunday, Dandenong.
When you add in last season's 24-3 record through the home and away rounds and finals, the Spirit are now 46-5 in their past 51 games since they missed the finals in 2011-12.
But as dominant as the Spirit has been during the home and away season, it counts for nothing now.
All it has done is give the Spirit the opportunity to host this weekend's second semi-final against the Rangers.
Hopefully, just like last season a big Bendigo crowd gets behind the Spirit as they chase another home-court grand final berth in a fortnight.
KA: The Spirit have no doubt been the best team in the competition for the past two seasons, Westy.
All of their hard work and consistency has paid off and now they are into another finals series.
It is great to see all the girls still have the hunger to back up their success of last year.
New faces have rejuvenated the side, with Sara Blicavs, Tessa Lavey and Elyse Penaluna added to the roster.
Despite Penaluna's injury the trio have added an X-factor.
I am excited to see how they will perform on Sunday.
LW: A real bonus for the Spirit now is that as a club, they have that big-game experience to draw on from last year's successful finals campaign.
As for the hunger you speak of, that was certainly typified by last weekend's demolition of the Logan Thunder.
It was a game where the Spirit had nothing to gain from a ladder perspective and they were playing one of this season's strugglers.
It would have been easy for the Spirit to just go through the motions, do what it had to do to get the win and then turn its attention to what it's all about - the finals.
But it was anything but for the Spirit with a 29-point belting of the Thunder, led by another superb performance from All-Star Gabe Richards.
KA: Yes, it seems Gabe Richards wins an award every week for her stellar season.
The team is definitely full of match-winners and watching the girls go through some shooting practice, they are on target for a good game.
I hope Bendigo can again support the team like they did last year.
The crowd plays a huge part of the game, so I am expecting to see the crowd make some noise on Sunday.
LW: At least Sunday's game will be indoors.
What about the weather our outdoor sports have had to endure over the past three Saturdays.
First it was the heat two weeks in a row that caused most sport to be called off, then it was the rain last Saturday that created problems, particularly for cricket. Good signs this Saturday, though, for a sunny 28 degrees.
KA: Yes, this weather is playing havoc with weekend sports. I haven't been coping with the heat too well. A lot of restless nights.
Hopefully, the heavens above play nice this weekend and we get to see some cricket action and another Spirit win.
I will be there cheering the team on.
LW: Oh, too bad Magpie, look at that, we're all out of space.
Looks like we can't talk any AFL NAB Challenge this week. What a pity, hey.

Deceptive Athleticism. Steady competitor. Brilliant Shooter. Unlimited Range. Quiet Confidence. And the next Sacramento King!
I have been hunkering down in my B-Lab (Blob Laboratory) lately, that is, in front of my iMac, to study, quantify, qualify and deconstruct the top prospects through combination of You Tube clips, articles, respected commentary and relevant data to separate the wheat from the chaff, the contenders from the pretenders, and the Hakeem's from the Hasheem's.
My analysis reveals the Kings will select...wait, wait...drama building, wait...tension mounting, wait...boredom setting in, wait...and wait no more!
Jimmer Fredette with the # 7 pick of the NBA draft!!! These results have a margin of error of 0.0%.
Send him to the draft podium, design the 2011-2012 promotional billboards, book the January 2013 appearance at the Arco 2 Groundbreaking Ceremony, replete with logoed hardhat and purple-tinted shovel, and let Jimmermania commence!
The output of my scientific 2011 NBA draft investigation reveals Jimmer to be the most worthy candidate based on optimal fit, immediate and long-term impact, as opposed to position, reputation, or the elusive quality known as 'upside'. In sum, Jimmer is the best NBA prospect available at #7 while satisfying a foremost need.
B-Lab Findings
Despite the late season brilliance of MT23, the Kings are being built around the dynamic duo of Tyreke Evans and DeMarcus Cousins. Reke and Cuz are the most talented players on the roster, and the cornerstones of The Rebuild. Any core addition must complement their predominant traits. If there is a common trait shared by the two players, it is their preference to bully their way into the paint, to overpower smaller defenders, to carve a scoring path with muscle and skill.
Opposing defenders able to cheat off their man and into help position narrows creases to exploit, and reduces room to operate. To maximize the potential of our two best talents, we are wise to give them ample space to do damage. Enter Jimmer, as weak side sharp shooter, spot up marksman, and trustworthy scoring option with minimal airspace required. Jimmer will keep defenses honest and force opponents to swallow their poison.
Drink up, mortal victim!
The Kings witnessed the positive impact Marcus Thornton brought to the team with his 3-point range (36%) and dynamic scoring repertoire (21.3 PPG in 27 games). It is not an exaggeration to say the trade deadline deal made the Kings exponentially more watchable, exciting and competitive. It has been suggested by many, myself included, that Jimmer duplicates the size and skillset of MT23, albeit a lesser and unproven version, and that the pick would be better utilized to fill another need or position (SF, PF).
Contrary to this line of thought, you can never have too many shooters and cold-blooded scorers. Witness the NBA finalists Dallas Mavericks as example of team structured around the low/mid post dominance of Dirk as center hub to numerous spokes ready and able to launch from the three-point arc: The Jason's, Terry and Kidd, our boy Peja, JJ Barea, and DaShawn Stevenson.
Reliable shooters become more indispensable when one of your best players drives relentlessly into the key, in the case of Reke, and needs a dependable safety valve when the bank is not open for business. Further, when your best post player, DeMarcus Cousins, showed in his rookie season an ability to see over the top of the defense, and to find open wing or corner shooters, it helps when the man on the receiving end knows what to do. Swish!
Geoff Petrie's affection for superior shooting can be traced over the years to his acquisition of players who excelled at this one skill: Ricky Barry, Danny Ainge, Mitch Richmond, Mike Bibby, Jason Williams, Peja Stojakovic, Kevin Martin, Eddie House, Tony Delk, Jon Barry, Omri Casspi, to name a few.
Adding Jimmer Fredette to this list seems overwhelmingly fitting under present circumstances, although at first I rejected the notion. In fact, the idea the Kings would draft a 6'2" white kid from BYU was beyond the realm of possibility in my mind, but not because he is a 6'2" white kid from BYU. I made no qualms over my objection to Jimmer as serious candidate.
A sampling of impressions leading to today:
The best player I have seen in tourney so far is Jimmer Freddette, and he looks too slow and nonathletic to guard at NBA level, or to get to the hoop and finish...
Jerry Reynolds implied the other telecast he likes Jimmer. He said he is bigger and stronger than Mike Bibby when he came in to league. It will be interesting to see where Jimmer goes in the draft. When he goes in for the individual workouts if he proves he is a decent enough athlete, he will go high. If his athleticism (lateral quickness, speed) is sketchy, teams will get nervous....
The player I don't want is Jimmer Fredette. Dude is too slow to defend, get out on break, and beat anyone off dribble....
I am not saying Jimmer is not going to be a good pro or defy critics with his athletic ability. I just think a projected PG without decent speed, or a projected 6'2" SG with just average speed, has less margin for error. If the Kings even consider taking him at #5, he needs to prove at least average athleticism....
Of course teams like Jimmer. What's not to like based on his college career? He was fantastic. But there's a big gap between we like him to he is our draft pick....
Yo, yo, waddup wit dat yo-yo head? What's up with the reversal of opinion? Slight change of tune, eh hombre? What's with the two-sided mouth blabbing, blob!?! Chill. Settle down, Pookey, err, random reader, NBA aficionado, and gentlemanly scholar. Relax, breathe, and recognize that looks can be deceiving and newly released data, once churned and digested, can be eye opening, and assuage concerns to decisive degree.
Allow me to explain the evolution of my thought process, my surprising B-Lab findings, and the basis of my boarding pass upon the Jimmer Express.
As picture illustrates, Jimmer has a wide and somewhat stocky frame. However, his build belies his athleticism. My initial impressions over his physique led me to imagine he would be a half to full step slow on NBA fast breaks, attempted back door cuts, or potential escape dribbles. The NBA is a game of inches. Lack of speed and quickness is the difference between lay-up and a swatted shot, between three feet of shooting space and three inches, and between success and failure.
My tempered expectations held. Then, the NBA draft combine occurred. The results are in. Key categoric comparisons between Jimmer, his fellow attendees, his future King teammates, and established veterans listed below:
3/4 Court Sprint:
(1) Derrick Rose 3.05
(2) Rusell Westbrook 3.08
(3) John Wall: 3.14
(4) Kemba Walker 3.16
(5) Tyreke Evans 3.17
(6) Aaron Brooks 3.20
(7) Jimmer Fredette 3.21
(8) Jrue Holiday 3.21
(9) Chris Paul 3.22
(10) Marcus Thornton 3.28
(11) Omri Casspi 3.28
(12) Stephen Curry 3.28
(13) JJ Redick 3.29
Agility Drill:
(1) Jimmer Fredette! 10.42
(2) Dwyane Wade 10.56
(3) Jrue Holiday 10.64
(4) Marcus Thornton 10.73

Clearly, Jimmer Fredette is no athletic slug. He's more Road Runner than Wild E. Coyote. Line him up against the fastest of Kings (Tyreke, MT23, Pooh and Omri) and Jimmer will not get dusted. In fact he may just lead the pack, and do the dusting. Even more impressive, ask him to slide laterally against the most athletic guards in the NBA, and sliding he shall do. His reputation as a defensive slouch at BYU may have been well earned, but he projects as a capable NBA defender.
The results of these agility and speed drills must be tempered with just this fact. These are drills, not basketball plays. But the correlation should not be discounted, nor the fact that the impressive results address the primary concerns regarding his ability to excel as a pro. I was unable to find any prominent NBA guards who completed the agility drill faster than Jimmer. Video evidence here:
Jimmer Agility and Sprint Drills (4:55 to 6:00):
More Jimmer Agility on Display (2:55 to 3:05):
While Jimmer does not possess the length or hops of his soon-to-be peers, he possesses NBA level athleticism. His 6'4.5" wingspan is equal to Beno's, and puts him below the average of 6'6" for an NBA PG. His 10'9".5 max vertical is mildly concerning, and puts him in the bottom 20% percentile of NBA PGs. It still puts him among accomplished vertically-challenged company: Chris Paul, Jameer Nelson and Ty Lawson. He is not going to win a dunk contest anytime soon, or ever. But blowing out a candle upon a cupcake sitting atop of the rim while windmill double pumping is not requirement to becoming a NBA star.
Sorry Gerald Green.
So there you have it. In unexpected turn, Jimmer displays the foot speed and agility needed to defend, to fill the wings on a break, to pull up early in transition, to curl off picks, and to crossover unsuspecting defenders. Recent reports from individual and group workouts confirm teams and GMs are pleasantly surprised as well (Knicks, Pacers). Most importantly, Jimmer seems to possess the athleticism to keep pace with teammates, if not lead them, and to play at speed and pace necessary to get consistent quality looks at the hoop.
Jimmer frenzy, friends!
Jimmer compares favorably with a young Mike Bibby. As a former #2 pick of the Vancouver Grizzlies, Bibby's transition to the NBA was fairly seamless. He averaged 13 points as a rookie, as high as 21 PPG in '05-'06, and never less than 13 points over the first 12 years of his career. He shot 38% from 3 points, 43% overall, with better than 2.5:1 assist:TO ratio. To secure a player of comparable potential and productivity with the 7th pick of the draft represents tremendous value.
Mike Bibby @ Arizona
Jimmer Fredette @ BYU
Fredette and Bibby have the similar body type, and same deft shooting touch. Both use their size and strength to ward off defenders and create space. Jimmer has more range on his shot. The Bibster had better penetration skills. The low camera angle on the Jimmer clips also effectively reveals (1) deft dribble crossover that will translate into NBA (2) nice elevation on jump shot, (3) adequate and crafty, if not good, penetration skills, (4) nice handles in traffic, and (5) opportune passing.
Why not Kemba, Biyombo or [insert name here]?!
Official B-Lab protocol dictates sizing up a draft in simplest of terms, in terms of impact. Looking forward or in retrospect, the best players are those with an ability to impact a game and their team with a unique combination of skills. By considering a player in terms of past, current and projected impact, focus shifts to what he can do, versus what he cannot do. Too often analysis gets muddled with lists of pros and cons, positional focus, and illogical comparisons. By evaluating a player based on the level of impact he makes on a game today, and determining if the impact will likely translate into the future, chances improve that the best player will be chosen.
Tyreke Evans impacts a game with an ability to get to the rim at will through size and saavy, and his impact was demonstrated through 25+ consecutive victories at Memphis, once responsibility and the ball was placed in his hands. DeMarcus was a prep state champion and leading contributor of top ranked team at Kentucky with his ability to impact the paint area through aggression, size and fundamentals. Likewise, Jimmer Fredette impacts a game with the constant attention required through his extraordinary ability to make shots. His immeasurable impact upon the success of BYU program cannot be understated. The clincher to this equation of projected impact is the display of athleticism to go with the sweet stroke.
Jimmer will soon become the Kings best shooter since the glory days of Peja-vu, and an exciting and substantive addition to an emerging Kings team. He immediately becomes the third guard in a 3-man rotation, and penciled in for 20 to 30 minutes per game. I like Beno and his unheralded efficiency and production, but the arrival of Jimmer makes departure of Beno imminent.
The Blob has spoken. The June 23rd Sacramento Kings draft future has been foretold. Trust in the wisdom of the Blob. The B-Lab never Be-Lies. Thank
you me for reading this post. You have just been Jimmer'd.

With a virtual tie between Scott Moviel (12 votes) and Kyle Allen (11 votes) we have ourselves our second runoff. Here's what the list looks like so far:
- Fernando Martinez
- Jenrry Meija
- Brad Holt
- Wilmer Flores
- Jonathon Niese
- Reese Havens
- Josh Thole
- Ike Davis
- Ruben Tejada
- Jefry Marte
- Jeurys Familia
- Kirk Nieuwenhuis
- Brant Rustich
- Robert Carson
For the runoff, only the two names will be posted in the poll. A one vote difference will be counted this time around, so consider your vote carefully, as this is an opportunity to change your mind, and an opportunity for those who voted for others to throw their hat into the Moviel vs. Allen ring. Afterward, the winner will be added to the list and the loser will be thrown back in with the group of candidates for round 16. If its a landslide, I will close the poll early and move on to round 16. Otherwise, I will let the poll run through the night and see where we are tomorrow afternoon. Happy voting!

WATERVLIET, N.Y. -- The battle over the future of St. Patrick's Church in Watervliet has been going on for months, the demolition permit issued in January.
"You don't have to be religious to love this building," says Rosemary Nichols, a member of the Citizens for St. Patrick's.
Nichols says the church is the reason she lives in Watervliet.
"It's like tearing out my heart," she says.
Nichols says that is why the judge's decision in favor of continuing the demolition was difficult to hear, but within hours filed an appeal with the city of Watervliet zoning board of appeals.
"The stay will be pursuant to law until the zoning board of appeals renders its decision," says Nichols.
But Paul Goldman, the attorney for the city of Watervliet, says that is incorrect. Goldman says the zoning board of appeals does not have jurisdiction to hear an appeal of an issurance of a demolition permit under a chapter of the city code, and the contractors are free to proceed.
"At the end of this, they're free to do whatever they want," says Goldman. "There's no restraint on them at this present moment."
Goldman says there were 16 public meetings and two public hearings before the city council voted. He says it was a well-thought out decision.
"That's what the city decided, that's what the elected officials decided," says Goldman. "Unfortunately, we still have some people who are unhappy, but they are still residents of our city and part of our community."
But Nichols says St. Patrick's is also apart of the community and she won't stop fighting.
"We have an obligation to the
community, those who care about it deeply, to make sure we have exhausted all
of our legal opportunities to protect the building until saner heads

Bankruptcy Law
Two Banks Win Ruling Blocking Madoff Trustee from Pursuing $20B in Claims
Posted Nov 2, 2011 9:42 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
A federal judge has barred Madoff trustee Irving Picard from pursuing about $20 billion in claims against two banks, JPMorgan Chase & Co. and UBS.
U.S. District Judge Colleen McMahon of Manhattan said Picard could bring suits for harm caused to the bankrupt estate, but not for harm caused to Bernard Madoff's investors, the New York Times reports. Picard had alleged the banks harmed the investors by ignoring evidence of fraud by Bernard Madoff.
Under the ruling, Picard will still be able to pursue a claim for fictional profits the banks allegedly withdrew through the Ponzi scheme.
The Wall Street Journal (sub. req.) says the ruling is "one of the biggest blows" to the trustee's efforts to recover money for Madoff victims. He has had prior successes, however, helping recover about $11 billion of an estimated $17.3 billion in lost principal.

This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

Sherry the cat is found snared in illegal gin trap (From The Bolton News)
Sherry the cat is found snared in illegal gin trap
8:21am Tuesday 1st January 2013 in News
A CAT may have to have its leg amputated after it was caught in an illegal gin trap.
The black cat was discovered hanging from a fence in Atherton, where it had become stuck while trying to escape from the metal jaws of the trap.
The device, which looks like a miniature bear trap, had sprung shut on the cat's left front leg.
RSPCA Inspector Anthony Joynes told The Bolton News that the cat is still being treated at Salford RSPCA Animal Hospital after being found at 6.30am on December 21.
It is thought the cat had struggled to free itself, dragging the trap with it, then tried to jump a fence — but the trap had become caught, leaving the cat suspended from the fence in Devonshire Road, Hag Fold.
Insp Joynes said: "The person who found the cat said it had a badly injured paw.
"A nurse from Atherton Veterinary Centre removed the trap and administered emergency pain relief.
"Unfortunately it may now need its leg amputating.
"Nobody has yet come forward to claim the cat, a black female, approximately six years old, known as Sherry.
"Gin traps were banned in the 1950s due to their cruel, indiscriminate nature, as any animal being caught in one of these traps would suffer horrifically.
"Anybody setting these traps must realise that it is a serious criminal offence and that if caught we will do everything in our power to ensure that they are prosecuted.
"Somebody is probably wondering where their cat is after she didn't return home, all because of someone's cruel, irresponsible actions.
"I would be keen to speak to anybody from the area who may know the person responsible for this or anybody else who knows someone who sets this sort of illegal trap.
"I have previous experience of this sort of trap before in which a fox was left struggling all night, eventually succumbing to shock and blood loss and after attempting to bite through its own leg.
"The person responsible was given a four-month suspended prison sentence."

Shellfish were fair game early Friday morning and fishermen took the bays to harvest bushels of bay scallops after the Department of Environmental Conservation lifted shellfishing restrictions that were put in place after Hurricane Sandy.
The state had deemed area waterways hazardous for use as food after the storm hit.
Friday's lifting allowed scallop season to commence though a few days later than it was normally is set to start — the official opening was slated for Nov. 5.
Patch wants to know: Did you head to the waters to harvest shellfish after the DEC lifted restrictions? If so, share your experience in the comment section below or share photos of your harvest by uploading them to this post.

LEXINGTON, Ky. - For the fourth consecutive week, the Southwest Minnesota State volleyball team holds the No. 1 ranking in the American Volleyball Coaches' Association (AVCA) Top 25 Coaches' Poll.
After making history by earning the first ever No. 1 ranking in program history three weeks ago, the Mustangs (25-1) continue to hold the No. 1 ranking following match wins over No. 16 Wayne State and Augustana.
SMSU (795) claimed 29 of 32 first-place votes to earn the top ranking.
There were no changes among the top five as Concordia-St. Paul (752) is ranked No. 2, followed by Washburn (732), Nebraska-Kearney (685) and Minnesota Duluth (666). For the third consecutive week, every team in the top five of this week's AVCA Top 25 Poll are members of the Central Region. Other NSIC schools to be ranked in the AVCA Top 25 this week were Wayne State (16th), and Minnesota State (22th).
Southwest Minnesota State has now been ranked in the AVCA Top 25 for 90 consecutive weeks, dating back to Sept. 5, 2006.
SMSU will battle No. 22 Minnesota State and No. 2 Concordia-St. Paul this weekend for the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference title. SMSU (17-1) holds a one game lead over Minnesota Duluth (16-2) and Concordia-St. Paul (16-2) in the NSIC standings with two games remaining on the schedule. SMSU is seeking its first NSIC title since 2001.

.- Archbishop Agustin Garcia-Gasco of Valencia has denounced attempts to impose secularism in Spain, calling it "a new state religion" that seeks to relegate the practice of the Catholic faith to the private sphere.
The AVAN news agency reports that in a new pastoral letter, the archbishop warns of attempts to "prevent any kind of public display of religion, and especially the Catholic faith, thus denying freedom of expression and excluding [religion] from all dialogue."
Archbishop Garcia-Gasco pointed to various signs, such as constant criticism of the Church, the elimination of religions symbols and the relegation of faith to the private sphere, as "keys" to discovering who is seeking to impose secularism.
"The (lay) State cannot impose religion, but it must guarantee that the followers of different religions can live in freedom and peace," he explained. The Church operates in independence on basis of the faith she professes, the archbishop stressed, "which the State must respect."
Catholics are very clear: Church and State are two distinct spheres," he said, recalling the words of Benedict XVI in Deus Caritas Est, where the Pope says that the Church does not seek to have "power over the State, much less to impose its perspectives and ways of behaving on those who do not share the faith."
One of the pillars of Christianity, Archbishop Garcia-Gasco noted, is its "commitment to charity for those most in need," from which comes her "commitment to justice." "The Church has always practiced charity directly and nothing prevents her from collaborating with the governments of each nation to promote social justice," he stated.
In this sense, the archbishop explained that the collaboration between Church and State does not lead to confusion between the two institutions, as justice "is a point of convergence between faith and politics."

Brain Drain Vs. Brain DevelopmentMonday, October 28th, 2013
I was reading an article by Thrishantha Nanayakkara which made an interesting point. "There is a mythical belief that "talent leaves Sri Lanka". This is not true. Talent is there among most professionals already living in Sri Lanka. I can quote not only professionals but also many innovative village youth who would be National assets elsewhere, unseen and unrecognized in Sri Lanka. The issue is that their talent is not visible in the corrupt system till they leave Sri Lanka. Recognition of talent abroad gives the illusion that "talent leaves" Sri Lanka, when in fact those who are already in Sri Lanka are not any less talented." (Colombo Telegraph).

Threshold Jr
Threshold Jr happens most Wednesday nights for youth from grades 6 to 8. Our goal is to see students crossing the "threshold" into the extreme life. God's plan is not for youth to live just ordinary lives. The youth of this generation have the potential to accomplish great things for God. God is raising them up to no longer be content with just ordinary lives, but to move and lead others into the awesome plans that God has for them.
Threshold Jr is filled with all kinds of crazy events like eating things of unknown origin, game shows, and concerts. Most weeks we have the Threshold band lead us in a great time of praise and worship. We also divide into small groups on most Wednesday nights for part of the night. These are great ways for youth to get to know other youth better while they grow in their relationship with God. We are a growing group that is excited about what God is doing in the youth at Church of the Rock.
To receive a weekly email with what's happening, email email@example.com and state your name and grade so we can get you the right email.
