Medical Director
Georgia Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center, Grady Health System
Dr. James Eckman is Professor of Hematology and Medical Oncology at the Winship Cancer Institute and holds appointments as Professor of Medicine and Adjunct Professor of Pediatrics in Medical Genetics at Emory University School of Medicine. He received his medical training and was appointed to the faculty of University of Minnesota Medical School before being recruited to Emory in 1978. He was committed to establishing a sickle cell program at Grady Memorial Hospital, and after intensive state lobbying for funding in 1984, became Medical Director of the world's first 24-hour comprehensive acute care sickle cell center.
Dr. Eckman has broad research experience in basic science, translational research, clinical research and clinical trials. These have included studies of red cell metabolism; sickle erythrocyte endothelial interactions; coagulation activation with sickle complications; psychological and social complications from sickle cell disease; drug and chemotherapy of sickle complications; pain assessment and management; and bone marrow transplantation in sickle disease. Most recently, Dr. Eckman has begun to study pain management and genetic mechanisms of variation in response to pain and pain therapy.
Dr. Eckman's other interest is in public health services for individuals with genetic diseases. He has championed newborn screening for sickle cell disease on a local and national level. His work has saved the lives of many sickle cell children who would have died from pneumococcal sepsis if timely preventive care with oral penicillin prophylaxis was not started. It was through his efforts that Georgia instituted universal mandatory sickle cell screening for newborns in October of 1998. He serves as a member of several local and national committees and acts as an advocate to continue awareness and support of these programs.

Olympic legacy cash for Northolt playing fields
12:19pm Thursday 26th July 2012 in Local News
LORD Halsbury Memorial Playing Fields in Northolt has secured an Olympic legacy grant of £50,000 from Sport England's Inspired Facilities Fund.
The IF fund is part of the £135m legacy programme aiming to bring the magic of the Games to communities.
The grant will be in addition to a £150,000 investment from Ealing Council and will go towards upgrading the existing playing fields and rebuilding a sports pavilion, which was damaged by fire last year.
The pavilion will include a community hall, boxing gym, changing rooms and toilets, and will provide a base for Larkspur Rovers Football Club and Northolt Amateur Boxing Club. Work will be
completed by the end of the year.
Both clubs have helped to develop talent over the years, including Audley Harrison, who was the first British boxer to win gold in the superheavyweight division at the 2000 Olympic Games.
Sport England chairman Richard Lewis said: "This fund has really hit the mark with sports clubs in Ealing."

Recently graduated from college and living in Los Angeles, Christine Eads went from doctor to doctor, hoping someone could figure out why her periods had stopped and why she often awoke in the middle of the night drenched in sweat.
They provided lots of possible explanations but no answers:
She suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder.
She should start taking the pill.
She should stop taking the pill.
But they pretty much agreed that there was no way a woman who hadn't menstruated in five years could conceive a baby.
Finally, her then-boyfriend learned of a National Institutes of Health doctor who studied women with her symptoms.
Eads moved back to her native Northern Virginia and went to see Lawrence Nelson, an obstetrician/gynecologist at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development in Bethesda, Md.
Nelson immediately recognized that Eads had an uncommon condition called primary ovarian insufficiency, or POI. It affects fertility and leads to osteoporosis and other conditions related to inadequate estrogen production.
Once known as "premature menopause," the name change reflects how research has changed the way doctors think about the condition.
"We need to divorce this from menopause," Nelson says, not to raise false hopes but to erase POI's stigma: A diagnosis of premature menopause affects women's self-image and emotional health.
"Menopause is defined as the permanent cessation of menstrual cycles and the permanent cessation of fertility," Nelson notes. "The word implies that there aren't any eggs left in the ovary that work."
Sure, occasionally there's a report in a medical journal about a POI patient who got pregnant, he says, but "everybody assumed it was a really rare thing, a fluke."
Maybe not.
In primary ovarian insufficiency, "there probably is a period of time where there is less-than-optimal ovarian function but not absence of ovarian function," says Paula Hillard, a Stanford University OB/GYN and board member of Rachel's Well, a POI advocacy group.
"We don't completely understand that, and that's one of the reasons why Larry Nelson's studies are so very, very important," Hillard says.
In fact, Nelson and Hillard say, probably 5 percent to 10 percent of women with primary ovarian insufficiency are able to conceive.
Eads' diagnosis at 30 sent her reeling. "I was so devastated," says Eads, now 40 and co-host of "Broadminded" on SiriusXM Radio.

The Nets' MarShon Brooks on the grueling NBA lockout schedule
MARCUS HENRY Special to the AmNews | 1/26/2012, 11:56 a.m.
It's common to see NBA rookies hit a wall at some point during their first year. The college basketball season doesn't even equal half of an NBA schedule, so don't be surprised to see some of the league's first-year pros feeling the heat of playing so many games in so little time.
This season-shortened to 66 games-has especially been tough, as every team in the league has to endure a three-game in three-night stretch. The Nets experienced it last weekend and went 1-2, dropping the final game of the three-game stretch, 110-95, to Chicago on Monday night. The Nets were in Philadelphia last night (Wednesday), playing for the fourth time in five days.
Nets rookie guard MarShon Brooks talked about how draining playing so often can be. "In AAU tournaments, we played a lot of back-to-back-to-back games," he said after scoring 20 in Sunday's 97-87 win over Charlotte. "Other than that, we're all new to this. One good thing is [other] teams are going through the same thing."
Brooks succumbed to fatigue as he missed the Chicago game with a sore left Achilles, but what can a player do to stay fresh? Aside from not overexerting themselves on their down time, there isn't much a player can do to counter such a demanding schedule, according to Brooks. "Instead of shoot around, we made sure we got a lot of rest," said Brooks. "That's all you can really do, is make sure you sleep in."
Brooks took comfort in the fact that he has a coach who knows how he feels. Nets coach Avery Johnson was a member of the San Antonio Spurs during the NBA's 50-game season in 1998-1999. "Avery Johnson's been through a season like this, so he understands," Brooks said. "He makes sure we get the proper amount of rest and things like that."
Former New York City prep star and Charlotte Bobcats guard Kemba Walker talked about the grind of the NBA season, too. "It's different. In college, the games mean a lot more sometimes," said Walker. "You don't really have back-to-back games like this in college. You usually have two or three days before the next game."


text: In an odd sight, the relievers had to run a marathon from the center-field bullpens to join the altercation, the Giants trailing the Phillies because their bullpen was one level higher. They had to descend steps. Jeremy Affeldt was warming up and, in fact, Bochy was going to the mound to yank Sanchez when all heck broke loose. Affeldt started to run down the steps when bullpen coach Mark Gardner grabbed him. "He said, 'You stay here. You need to lock it in right now,' " Affeldt said. " 'We've got a long game ahead of us, and you need to stay focused.' " So Affeldt continued to warm up, hearing taunts from fans who called him every feminine epithet in the books for not joining his mates to fight. It was a profound move by Gardner. Affeldt, who rarely pitched down the stretch and only two-thirds of an inning previously in the postseason, relieved Sanchez, buzzed through Philly's 4-5-6 hitters to strand the two runners, preserved the 2-2 tie and added a perfect fourth.

BigLaw Firms Say Anna Nicole Smith Ruling Nixes Bankruptcy Jurisdiction in Heller Clawback Case
Posted Oct 3, 2011 6:55 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
Unlikely though it might seem, a deceased celebrity and former stripper known for her marriage to a very elderly, and very wealthy, Texas oil tycoon is at the center of an ongoing dispute concerning the dissolution of Heller Ehrman.
Lawyers for the major law firms at which Heller Ehrman's former attorneys are now working are pointing to a U.S. Supreme Court ruling earlier this year concerning the estate of Anna Nicole Smith, reports Reuters.
It held that common-law tort claims don't belong in bankruptcy court and thus supports their argument, the firms say, that so-called clawback litigation seeking to direct profits from former Heller matters back to the now-defunct firm must be decided in federal district court.
Matthew Schultz of Trepel Greenfield Sullivan & Draa represents Heller. He calls the argument that U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Dennis Montali should cede jurisdiction to federal district court in San Francisco "just an attempt to delay."

The WEC's first foray into the pay-per-view market will take place on Saturday, April 24th from ARCO Arena in Sacramento, California as a main event title showdown between Urijah Faber and Jose Aldo will headline this historic event. Like many of the more recent UFC events, Zuffa is pushing the WEC's brand to the casual UFC fans by providing preliminary action on Spike TV one hour before the pay-per-view event starts.
Here's a brief breakdown of each fight taking place on the six-fight undercard. The top two battles below will be featured on Spike TV at 9:00 PM EST. Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan will relieve the WEC commentary team for this event, and Bruce Buffer will provide the ring announcing.
Featherweight: Leonard Garcia (13-5-1, 3-2-1 WEC) vs. Chan Sung Jung (10-1, 0-0 WEC)
The headlining battle on the Spike TV portion of preliminary bouts will feature South Korean prospect and Sengoku veteran Chan Sung Jung taking on UFC and WEC veteran Leonard Garcia in a match-up that should bring some f airly exciting action. Garcia enters the contest after drawing with former UFC fighter George Roop at WEC 47 and dropping an unanimous decision to Manvel Gamburyan at WEC 44. Jung submitted Matt Jaggers at Sengoku IX, but dropped a controversial decision to Sengoku Featherweight Grand Prix champion Masanori Kanehara in the second round of the Grand Prix.
We'll make these previews short and sweet as there is a lot of bouts to cover. Garcia has some disadvantages on the ground and somewhat deficient takedown defense at times, but he packs a wallop in his hands. Jung is surprisingly well-rounded. Solid submission ability, good ground tactics, and surprising knockout power in a limited capacity. He actually crushed Muay Thai striker Pajonsuk with a spinning back fist at It's Showtime back in February. Although it was deemed an illegal move and he was disqualified, it does show the skill and improvement in his stand-up game.
While I think Garcia presents some problems, Jung is actually a very promising prospect. At only 23 years of age, he could very well be the next great featherweight fighter out of Korea who could eventually vie for the WEC featherweight title and be a force in the division worldwide. He isn't a Jose Aldo or Urijah Faber at this point in his career, but his well-rounded skill-set and improving striking leans me to pick him in this fight.
Lightweight: Anthony Pettis (9-1, 1-1 WEC) vs. Alex Karalexis (10-4, 4-2 WEC)
This should be a pretty straight-forward style match-up. Karalexis has never shown dynamic striking ability or a vast array of submissions on the ground. He's a wrestler, and like all good wrestlers -- he likes to take down opponents, gain top control, and pound the snot out of his opponents. He has some limited power in his hands, but Pettis will more than likely negate any tendencies for Karalexis to try to bang as he did knockout Danny Castillo with a brutal head kick at WEC 47.
Karalexis struggled against Bart Palaszewski and Ed Ratcliff in his losses at WEC 37 and WEC 31 respectively. In fact, he was battered by Ratcliff's striking, and Palaszewski was good enough to out grapple and punish Karalexis. Pettis can do both, in my opinion, and I think he'll provide a solid finish for the casual fans at home tuning in for this match-up. Pettis should have an advantage on the feet, and I think he has the skills to stuff Karalexis and bomb him for most of the fight.
Bantamweight: Brad Pickett (18-4, 1-0 WEC) vs. Demetrious Johnson (5-0, 0-0 WEC)
The most noticeable disparity between Cage Rage veteran Brad Pickett and newcomer Demetrious Johnson is the huge gap in their experience levels. Pickett has battled in over 20 fights in his career while Johnson is still working his way up the ladder in the bantamweight ranks. This will easily be Johnson's toughest test to date, and he'll have to do it against the oxymoron of the WEC.
"One Punch" Pickett was considered a real knockout threat in his early days as a fighter. Pickett hasn't really lived up to that nickname, but that hasn't been a bad thing. He's become a very dangerous grappler with five of his last eight wins coming by way of submission.
From many of the reports, Johnson brings a high level high school background in wrestling coupled with some decent striking and jiu-jitsu skills. While I think Johnson could potentially lay on Pickett in this fight and batter him, I'm going to believe that Pickett is the better fighter on the ground as he's very sneaky and can quickly transition. I like Pickett here via submission.
Featherweight: Chad Mendes (6-0, 1-0 WEC) vs. Anthony Morrison (15-8, 0-1 WEC)
Anthony Morrison was brought in to fight Mike Brown in his debut with the WEC back at WEC 46, and he was subsequently demolished by the powerful American Top Team member. His sophomore appearance in the WEC might not go as well either. He'll be battling NCAA Division I wrestler Chad Mendes, a highly-touted Team Alpha Male fighter, who just recently defeated Erik Koch at WEC 47.
Mendes will likely come out on top in this battle. He'll have much better wrestling than Morrison, and he'll easily be able to overwhelm him with takedowns and strength throughout the course of the fight. The question is whether Mendes can finish. I'll take my chances and pick Mendes via TKO.
Bantamweight: Takeya Mizugaki (12-4-2, 1-2 WEC) vs. Rani Yahya (15-5, 4-2 WEC)
Interesting how a battle between arguable top ten bantamweight fighters is buried in the preliminary card, isn't it? Mizugaki is coming off an unanimous decision loss to Scott Jorgensen at WEC 45 while Rani Yahya was battered by Joseph Benavidez at the same event. Yahya will move somewhat laterally in opponents as Mizugaki also presents better striking ability with very good submission defense and wrestling.
Yahya is a submission threat, and his stand-up actually looks to be improving. Mizugaki can be an absolute beast though. He can take a punch, escape submissions, and outlast his opponents in most cases. Yahya has a chance on the ground, but Mizugaki is too knowledgeable to get caught sleeping. I'll take Mizugaki via decision.
Featherweight: Brandon Visher (13-0, 1-0 WEC) vs. Tyler Toner (9-1, 0-0 WEC)
This is a very interesting battle as Visher is the undefeated prospect with an impressive thirteen fight run. Toner, however, has a little better strength of record, and his only loss came against Scott Jorgensen at a Ring of Fire event in April of 2007. Toner also pulled off a stunning upset of Kenichi Ogata via knockout in Shootboxing.
Visher is primarily a boxer and Toner can compete in that area of the fight as well, which should make this a potential "Knockout of the Night" candidate. While Visher has a nice round zero in his loss column, I like Toner's height and reach advantage in combination with his slightly better strength of record. Visher has a chance like any boxer would, but I think Toner pulls off the win via TKO.

19 Action News Reporter Ed Gallek caught wind of a mother in trouble with police after leaving her five children under the age of ten home alone all day with no food in the home.
In August, officers rescued the children from a home in Cleveland's Hough neighborhood. After making sure the children were safe, police attempted to find the mother but she was unable to be located that day.
The woman, Linda Brown, was hauled to a jail in North Olmsted for a probation violation and theft.
Brown is now facing child endangering charges as a result of leaving her children but this is not the first time that she has had an issue with authorities for her negligence.
Brown's been investigated for her lack of parenting more than a half dozen times since 2008 and has even had her children taken away for good before.
Brown's five children are now staying in foster care for now.In December Brown goes before City Judge Pinky Carr.

Florida Forest Service officials are urging everyone to exercise caution with the use of any outdoor fire particularly until our area receives a significant amount of rainfall.
The majority of the Florida panhandle has not had much rain in a while, and for that reason, wildfire potential is increasing. While we are not at an 'extreme' wildfire danger level, with each day the Florida panhandle is getting more into a 'high' fire danger level.
Florida Forest Service wildland firefighters are working several wildfires in the entire 16-county region in northwest Florida.
This is NOT a 'burn ban' but more of an encouragement for everyone to use caution with outdoor fire and even refrain from using fire if it's not necessary until we receive significant rain.
The above was released Friday by the Florida Forest Service.

OK, so I'm pretty guilty of holding out hope that Portal 2 was going to throw some more links between Aperture Science and Black Mesa, and the 2 universes. But outside of a passing reference to Black Mesa by Cave Johnson, and documents saying they came 2nd in federal funding (which suggests that Black Mesa was the winner), the rest is pure speculation. There is also an achievement for finding the "Lost Experiment", which is assumed to be the dock where the Borealis was before it disappeared.
There has been plenty of speculation from Valve writers, suggesting that the events of Portal 1 was set around the time of the Black Mesa incident. There has also been lots of speculation (and arguing) on the Steam forums about what different parts of the game mean, what information is Canon and what isn't... It's all a bit of a mess. And I'm somewhat disappointed that there wasn't more of a reference to the HL universe. In fact the end really ends the game quite neatly.
So, what do you think? I'd like to think the Borealis has either Portal guns, or some other Apeture tech that was current when it disappeared (suspected to be in the 70s). Or, there is some sort of time travel equipment (which is suggested in some of the posters around the old enrichment spheres). Will we see more of Chell too?

In 2005 I was Director Sportif for the TIAA-CREF / 5280 team at the Tour of Ireland and U23 National Championships. I promised Ian MacGregor if he won the road race for the second consecutive year, I would shave his name into the side of my head.
I was also track endurance coach at USA Cycling from November of 2005 – May of 2007. I took 2 teams to World Championships, learned a ton being on the other side of the fence, and attended many coaches meetings. I also ran 9 million camps. The vast majority of them were fun. But then I decided to come back to racing.
I was the coach for the collegiate cycling team at CU Boulder the spring of 2010 to the spring of 2011. Brady Kappius is pictured above at the start of the short track National Championships in Tahoe, CA. He earned a silver medal.
Overall I find coaching to be a very rewarding experience and there is almost nothing as satisfying as watching your athlete succeed in their goals. Since 2005 I have worked with over 40 athletes individually and over 100 more on a part time or advisory basis.

Albatross is the first album released under the name Big Wreck since the 2001 release The Pleasure and the Greed. I decided to pick up Albatross today, on it's launch.
Of course, this album is really Ian Thornley's post-Big Wreck bandmates, Thornley, re-adopting the Big Wreck name.
It's a really good album, and I enjoyed my first listen a lot. It reminded me of how much I enjoyed the first Big Wreck album, In Loving Memory Of…
This takes me back to 1997, when Soundgarden announced that they were breaking up. Soundgarden was one of my favorite bands as a teenager; and the first favorite of mine to break up. Before then, I just hadn't considered that people in bands would decide to stop working together, when they seemed to be making good music. Give me a break, I was 16 years old. :)
I mean, Nirvana split after Kurt Cobain's sudden death. A far more tragic and shocking end.
I knew bands split up when members died, or retired at a ripe old ages. Or joined other bands.
But to just call it quits? I didn't realize there was such a thing as "Creative Differences" before then. Of course, I came to grips with it after I thought about it a lot, listened to Badmotorfinger fifty-thousand more times, and discovered Big Wreck.
The striking similarities between the vocals of Chris Cornell and Ian Thornley, as well as Big Wreck's similar if slightly more upbeat musical composition was a consolation. They were kind of like "Soundgarden Lite" for me, and over time and repeated listening, I gained a deeper appreciation for Big Wreck's first album, and their songwriting. They became their own sound, in my mind.
Albatross is every bit a Big Wreck album, and I like it a lot. It certainly reminds me those innocent days when I thought bands just had fun, made music, and got along like best pals. Probably even more than Soundgarden's reunion reminded me of those days… Kind of weird, eh?

Emergency crews from Seminole County have called off a search of an area lake after reports of a missing person proved to be untrue.
Witnesses told authorities that a man riding on a personal recreational watercraft on Lake Destiny was thrown into the water and did not surface. The incident was reported around 5:30 p.m.
Authorities said the witnesses mistakenly thought a person was thrown into the water when they spotted an unattended watercraft in the lake. They now believe the watercraft broke free of its moorings and drifted into the middle of the lake.
The lake is located west of Interstate 4 and north of Maitland Blvd. just off of N. Lake Destiny Road. It straddles the Maitland-Altamonte Springs border, but the area being searched is the northern portion located in Seminole County.

A Parade, an Airplane and Two Weddings
Two couples, a parade from downtown Caribou to the airfield, and two airplane flights were the scene in 1930 when the couples each took off in a single-engine plane to tie the knot high over Aroostook County.
Before the era of recorded music and radio, nearly every community had a band that played at parades and other civic events. Fire departments had bands, military units had bands, theaters had bands. Band music was everywhere.
St-Jean-Baptiste Day -- June 24th -- in Lewiston-Auburn was a very public display of ethnic pride for nearly a century. Since about 1830, French Canadians had used St. John the Baptist's birthdate as a demonstration of French-Canadian nationalism.

The Wire: 100 Greatest Quotes?
I'm only posting this because I love The Wire, but really you could pull a thousand individual quotes from the show and it wouldn't do it justice. The issue with this compendium is it focuses on the gully street slang that is, yes, a large part of The Wire — but a large part that is balanced out by profound cultural critiques and real, humanized characters. More »
Seen: The Wire, "Fuck"
An oldie but goodie. I just moved out of my East Village apartment — in no small part, to save money on rent in order to purchase new camera equipment — and I'm currently laid up in Brooklyn with a fever. This presents the perfect opportunity to work my way through the complete The Wire for a second or third time. An absolutely classic scene of "real poh-lice" work from the greatest television show ever to air. Season 1, Episode 4; adult content warning. More »
The connection between The Wire and On the Road
I just finished the final season of what will go down as the greatest standard-definition TV series in history, HBO's "The Wire." And while someday I'd like to write a eulogy for my now-concluded favorite show, at this point it's easiest to react to the reactors: I've been following along with Slate's episode diary. In one entry, Slate's columnists discuss the pronunciation of the word "shit"–drawn out to comical duration, so that it sounds like "sheeeee-it"–by the character of Clay Davis (Isaiah Whitlock), as if it were something heretofore unheard, as if Whitlock invented it. Their final entry attributes it to Whitlock's uncle. But as I was reading their entries I was wondering where these people were from that they hadn't heard it before.
Still, I didn't want to respond with "I'm from Durham, North Carolina, a predominantly black southern city and y'all are white fools for thinking "sheeeee-it" is something new," as I'm in fact from the suburbs of Durham and am myself half white(/Asian), but as I was reading Jack Kerouac's On The Road last night, I stumbled across the word and its particular pronunciation three times in the space of a page (200):
Yah, what's good's a ball, life's too sad to be ballin all the time, said the tenorman, lowering his eye to the street. "Shh-eee-it!" he said. "I ain't got no money and I don't care tonight."
We saw a horrible sight in the bar: a white hipster fairy had come in wearing a Hawaiian shirt and was asking the big drummer if he could sit in. The musicians looked at him suspiciously. "Do you blow?" He said he did, mincing. They looked at one another and said, "Yeah, yeah, that's what the man does, shhh-ee-it!
The big Negro bullneck drummer sat waiting for his turn. "What that man doing?" he said. "Play the music!" he said. "What in the hell!" he said. "Shh-ee-eeet!" and looked away disgusted.
Not to suggest that On the Road premiered the term, but it does offer proof beyond the anecdotal that the elocution is (at least) fifty years old. So there you go, Slate folks: it ain't nothin' new. Sheeee-it.

One of the more fascinating caveats coming out of the recent NBA labor talks is the proposed "Carmel Anthony Rule". This rule is designed to hinder superstar movement and to help put a stop to the circus like atmosphere that surrounded the Nuggets and even the Knicks and Nets last year due to incessant trade rumors. The Carmelo Anthony Rule would make it so that mid-season trades did not transfer Bird's Rights to the receiving team when trading a player on the last year of their contract. i.e. A team would have to trade for the player before the season starts (July 1st is the proposed cut-off date) or they would have to re-sign him in the off-season as an unrestricted free agent and could not go over the salary cap to do so.
This possible rule change is even more fascinating as a Magic fan given the much publicized looming free agency of Dwight Howard. In fact, of all of the possible tweaks slowly leaking out from the talks this may have the most immediate and measurable effect (if you happen to follow Orlando, New Orleans, or New Jersey).
From the Magic's perspective an obvious benefit is to limit rampant trade speculation and all of the inherent distractions that they bring. Although, even as that is one of the stated intended benefits of the rule I am a little dubious as to if it will actually be effective in preventing said distractions at all. I mean, the superstar in question will still be heading towards unrestricted free agency and will receive constant questions in regards to whether he is staying or going. And his teammates will still have to answer questions about losing their leader on a nightly basis win or lose. And let's not even think about the nightmare scenario that would play out should the team have to suffer through a *gasp* three game losing streak. Yeah, well, that's the good/non news. It just gets worse from here.
On the down side... It makes acquiring Chris Paul or Deron Williams 98.6% impossible. The unspoken subplot war of the upcoming season (if there is an upcoming season (which, I don't know, there won't be(?))) was supposed to be between the Magic, Hornets, and Nets. These teams are all effectively in a last man standing match where each is hoping for the others to fail hard enough for their respective stars to lash out demand a trade and give the other team the leverage to broker a deal and swoop in to steal the frustrated star. However this rule change blows that plot right out of the water. Now the only way to acquire a max level player during the season if going into free agency is to have max level cap space. The Magic as we all know are no where near having any cap space. Let alone max contract level cap space. This means that even if Chris Paul desperately wanted out of New Orleans and his #1 destination of choice is Orlando. We could never make it work. Hmm... this makes me sad (without made up Chris Paul trades what does it mean to be a Magic Fan these days?).
On the even downer side this rule also has the disadvantage of sending more stars into unrestricted free agency. Making it nearly impossible to do those mid-season blockbusters for unhappy soon-to-be free agent stars means a market full of unhappy stars that the former team wasn't able to deal for anything at all. Or to put it another way: [scary]The Magic will get nothing should Dwight Howard decide his best chance at a ring is to leave Orlando.[/scary]
On the other brighter sunnier hand. With this rule in place it makes it much much harder for Dwight to leave. Essentially you can take the Lakers, Celtics, Bulls, Knicks, and most every other team that sniffed the playoffs last year off the table completely. This means that all the Magic have to do is convince Dwight that he has a better chance of winning in Orlando than in New Jersey or Indiana or some similarly perpetual bottom feeder. So if keeping Howard is your highest priority this change could be sweet sweet music.
But, at best it would be a mixed bag. I mean, seriously, without a miracle Chris Paul trade do we have any ideas of how to make the team championship level...?

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- Brandon Roy is starting his comeback with the Minnesota Timberwolves.
A person with knowledge of the deal tells The Associated Press that the former All-Star guard has agreed to terms on a two-year, $10.4 million deal to join the Wolves next season. The person requested anonymity because the news has not been officially announced.
The former Portland guard retired before last season because of chronic knee issues. The Blazers used the amnesty clause on the remaining $63 million of Roy's deal to get his salary off of its books, but he received some treatments that prompted him to try to return.
Roy was originally drafted by the Wolves in 2006, but traded to Portland on draft night for Randy Foye.
The Oregonian first reported the agreement.

This picture may look like I am torturing my child, but we are playing the Burrito game!
I learned the Burrito game when I attended my Itsy Bitsy Yoga training ( I have been a Certified Itsy Bitsy Yoga Facilitator since 2006).
It is a fun game to play when your yoga class has started to loose their attention span. This redirects them, helps get some energy out and then they have some more focus for poses afterward.
I love group yoga classes, but a home practice is just as important, especially for kids.
And so is playing with your little one. I know that sometimes I struggle with figuring out how to play with Penelope. Most of the time I just follow her lead, she is making up all kinds of stories and adventures right now, but sometimes it's nice to have something to pull out of your hat for them.
So to play Yoga Burrito, get out your yoga mat and lay it face down. Then tell your little one that you are gonna roll them up like a burrito!
Start rolling them up, nice and slow at first, and make sure they don't get scared, let them know you can stop at anytime if they don't like it. You can speed it up later if you like, but be careful of their necks. Always leave their head out of the burrito.
Once you roll them up, you can play that you are gonna "eat" your burrito, giving them lots of smiles and eye contact.
After several rounds of you rolling up your little one, tell them to go get a doll or stuffed toy so they can play Yoga Burrito with their toys.
Playing with your child is wonderful, because it helps you get down to their eye level, it shows them that you value them and the things they like to do. All the touching and eye contact also make for great bonding too.
You can learn more about Itsy Bitsy Yoga here.

Bill Longmore pledges council tax freeze
8:50am Tuesday 5th February 2013 in News
POLICE and crime commissioner Bill Longmore has pledged to freeze council tax bills this year - admitting a public outcry had helped make his mind up.
Last month West Mercia Police's elected boss Mr Longmore raised the prospect of a two per cent rise from April, but since then more than 1,000 letters and emails have flooded into his office, with 70 per cent against it.
The force could have raked in £1.6 million from the increase, but decided against it following the correspondence.
Mr Longmore said: "We are trying to manage the finances so we're not in a position where we have to put the council tax precept up.
"Many people said they didn't want to see a rise so our conclusion was, let's leave that money with people and not take it.
"We need to all go forward together, that includes the wider community and councils."
The police only takes in 12 per cent of the council tax bill, with the rest going to the fire service, Worcestershire County Council and other district councils.
The council tax freeze is subject to feedback from the watchdog-style police and crime panel, which takes place later today.
The commissioner will take on board comments made by the panel before rubber stamping the precept level.

If he put it 10% we could also have another one of his mates as "Associate Assistant Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner."
Come on Bill, think about it, you could employ all your old drinking buddies from Staffordshire Police if you just ignore public opinion, and you know how easy you find that...

Miesha Tate took to the radio airwaves at the Sirius XM Fight Club to vent about ref Kim Winslow. Tate is still mad because she feels Winslow stopped her Ultimate Fighter 17 Finale bout with Cat Zingano prematurely. Here's what she had to say (transcribed by Eriksson Lau):
"There's no way in hell I'd let Kim Winslow referee another fight of mine. I think she's horrible. I think some people who are not fighters and watch that fight and are like cringe cause they don't have the fighter mentality and can never possibly understand it and that's why they're sitting in the stands. That's why I'm the one out there fighting, and I can tell you right now I wasn't done. I was ready to go on in that fight. I took a couple knees, but I was perfectly cognitive. I was thinking what I need to do, okay, I need to get off the cage and I need to shoot. And that's what I tried to do. The referee stopped it and some people agree with it and some people don't. I don't agree with it. I thought it was premature, if I had lost the first two rounds and it was a downhill slope maybe the stoppage was justify. But the fact that I won the first two rounds and I was off to a slow start in the 3rd round doesn't mean that the fight should have been stopped because I was bleeding. I had no cuts. I'm sorry my nose bleeds a lot. I have a big nose, whatever. People give me shit about it all the time
..."I was so pissed when she stopped the fight. The first thing I did was look up at her and said "Why did you stop the fight?" And [Kim Winslow] goes "because your face is a mess". I'm like seriously. That's why you stopped the fight. Your face is a mess and they still let you work. That's what I felt like saying to her. Are you serious right now did you not realize that we were coming in here to fight each other. You don't base it off how much someones bleeding, you base it off whether or not they're cognitive and they're still trying. And that's what she told me in the locker room. [Winslow] said, "Hey, if you're still working, you're still trying, you don't have to be effective, but if you just have to show me you still wanna in the fight" and I feel like I did that. I shot in for a takedown or whatever, and she stopped the fight. And I was pissed about it. I'm still pissed about it. I'll be pissed about it til the day I die. Or until the day I get to fight Cat Zingano again, and I whoop her ass and what's done will be done.
She doesn't do anything. I don't think she deserves to be a referee. And if she is she should go to the amateur levels where it doesn't matter as much, there's not as much on the line because she's literally ruining people's lives. And you know I was little bit over confident with her going into this fight. She's gotten a lot of flack before, but she did let the Cyborg and Jan Finney fight go. Then I felt like when the tables turned she just, I don't know, she dropped the ball. I know some people feel like the stop was justified, but like I said all those people are people that aren't fighters themselves. So, really they can't say what it feels like to be in the cage. I think any fighter watching that, and knowing me and knowing the shots I've taken and comeback from that, would have said "no, that fight shouldn't have been stopped."
What do you think? Was the fight stopped too soon? Is Winslow a clear and present danger to fighters? Does Tate have sour grapes?

Of course I would never take pleasure in the fact that a player is injured (on any team), however, I can't help but see the silver lining to Josh Shipp's absense this season. Just imagine right now if we were potentially looking at our top THREE players deffecting to the NBA. If Shipp was going to have this tremendous season that everyone was saying he was, I'm sure he'd be a potential first round pick.
Just food for though.

The Transformative Conversations@BROWN Project will provide many opportunities for our community to learn from each other and from notable experts. A goal of this Project is to facilitate learning of critical skills and tools for challenging conversations across our diverse perspectives and differences.
Upcoming Opportunities to have Transformative Conversations
These small group conversations are an opportunity to continue the discussion from the morning's plenary session, Transformative Conversations@Brown: Talking about the Tough Stuff at Work, guided by faculty and staff facilitators. Explore three different topics: Power dynamics at Brown; Balancing technology and people at Brown; and Respect for identity and individuality at Brown. We are offering all three in both the morning and afternoon time slots.The format is informal and simple; each participant will have two primary tasks: (1) to say what matters to him or her, and (2) to listen with generosity to others. We ask that each person listen to understand, not to agree, and that each person talk to inform, not persuade.

ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) -- Rochester Catholic Schools has released a statement, after the principal of Rochester's Lourdes High School submitted a letter of resignation Thursday.
Suzanne Lagerwaard had served the past year at Lourdes, and it has been marked by some turmoil.
The firing of a theology teacher in January created a protest movement inside Lourdes, and one parent estimates that up to a dozen teachers and staff have left since Lagerwaard took over.
Rochester Catholic Schools released a statement this morning that Lagerwaard is leaving for personal reasons.
A call to Lagerwaard has not been returned.

The first commencement on record at the normal school was held in 1881. The two teachers, Captain Harvey French, Principal, and William Reynolds, first Assistant, presided and conducted the exercises. The graduates read their essays, a member of the Board of Regents brought greetings, and the diplomas, sent from Charleston, were presented.
The commencement activities lasted three days and two nights, with contests, debates, orations, and musical numbers. Everyone attended the commencement, partly from curiosity, partly from interest in the students. The little village of Concord would be filled with people from all over Southern West Virginia. One wrote that "Commencement was quite a time, people came in wagons, hacks, buggies and on foot, and the village was very lively and festive". A present day resident of Athens recalls that she baked for days, preparing food for guests, and the house was so full of guests that the children had to sleep on pallets on the floor.

The introduction of universal male suffrage in 1890 and the unification of the plains of Barcelona, which created a municipal entity of a half million people, substantially changed the political scene in Catalonia's capital and, indirectly and progressively, the rest of Catalonia. After the clean municipal elections held in 1901, the dynastic parties found themselves cornered and the structure of a specific party-based system came into view for the first time, with the Regionalist League and the republicans emerging as the dominant forces. Following this electoral victory, which was repeated in 1903, the Provincial Councils, previously reviled by regionalists, became a target of conquest. After the city of Barcelona, the Councils became the second most important platform for reconstructing the political personality of Catalonia.
In 1903, Minister Antoni Maura presented a project for local-government reform that called for "municipal commonwealths", which would provide services of common interest. In 1904, representatives of the League presented an amendment to Maura's project that requested that the right to form commonwealths be extended to the Provincial Councils in order to offer technical, agricultural and commercial education; create libraries and museums; preserve monuments; promote reforestation; carry out public works of all sorts; and create other institutions to encourage exportation. Catalan Solidarity was formed in 1906, the year of the first general assembly of the Provincial Councils of Spain. At this assembly, Enric Prat de la Riba presented a design for provincial commonwealths that would give them authority over public works, communications, public welfare and university education and provide them with the tax money needed to carry out these activities. Catalan Solidarity scored a major victory in the provincial elections of 10 March 1907, giving Prat de la Riba the post of president of the Provincial Council of Barcelona. He was re-elected repeatedly until his premature death in 1917. One of Prat de la Riba's first decisions was to create the Institute of Catalan Studies, which was located at the Palace of the Government of Catalonia. The new version of Maura's project presented to the Courts in June 1907 recognised the right to form provincial commonwealths. In fall of 1911, the four Provincial Councils of Catalonia agreed on the conditions for forming commonwealths. Prat de la Riba presented these conditions to Prime Minister José Canalejas as "the most solid, irresistible proof of a people's ability to aspire to broad self-government functions".
Solidarity's crisis in 1908, the Tragic Week, caused the downfall of Maura's government. Canalejas was assassinated in 1912. These and other obstacles delayed and finally thwarted the approval of the law on local-government reform. However, since 1911 the project for a Commonwealth of Catalonia had become detached from the overall reforms. That same year, Rovira i Virgili declared that the new organisation should not be called a Commonwealth ("Mancomunitat", which was considered a Spanish archaism), but rather "Generalitat", a word that connoted a desire for autonomy. On 12 December 1913, Eduardo Dato's government finally issued a decree granting the Spanish Provincial Councils the power to form commonwealths to deal with shared administrative needs. Only the Catalan provinces—Barcelona, Girona, Lleida and Tarragona—seized this opportunity. As a result, Catalonia flourished once again as a political entity within Spain.
The assembly, which was made up of representatives of the four provinces (36 for Barcelona and 20 for each of the others), elected Enric Prat de la Riba, leader of the Regionalist League, as president of the Commonwealth on 6 April 1914. In addition to the assembly and the president, the Commonwealth included an eight-member Executive council. Two members came from each province, and together they represented the political range of Catalonia. Even though the state transferred only those powers and resources held by the Provincial Councils to the Commonwealth, the relative weight of the new organisation and the political unity of the Catalan nationalists under the strong leadership of Prat de la Riba made it possible to take major steps in public works, welfare services, education and culture with exemplary and long-lasting effects. When Prat de la Riba died in 1917, the presidency went to Josep Puig i Cadafalch. The second president of the Commonwealth tried to stabilize the institution's positive action in an increasingly strained economic and social context, which ultimately prompted the League to support Primo de Rivera's coup d'état in 1923. The dictator dismissed Puig and replaced him with the monarchist Alfons Sala, the Count of Egara, and proceeded to abolish the Commonwealth on 20 March 1925.

Situated 10km from the Perth GPO.
In September 1881, a little more than six months after the official opening of the Fremantle to Guildford section of the Eastern Railway, tenders for additional platforms at East Fremantle, North Fremantle and Butler's Swamp were called for. In a timetable published on the 1st may 1883, the station formerly known as Butler's Swamp is listed as Claremont and this appears to be the earliest official use of this name. Claremont was named by Mr James Morrison, the owner of Swan Location 702, who gave his land the name of Claremont Estate after his wife Clara Charlotte (nee de Burgh) whom he had married in 1869, and on account of the hilly nature of the country.

i have no idea where else to put this, so i'll put it here.
long story short, i recently moved to an area that doesn't have cable service available and has poor over-air reception. people have to get the dish or else they can't watch TV at all. now, the only thing i watch TV for is the Bills games - i use Hulu, CBS.com, etc for the rest of my shows that i watch (House and NCIS, represent!).
so, i need to find an alternative, preferably online and usable with a DSL connection, to watch the Bills in real-time. i'd prefer there not be a lag of more than a few seconds - a minute at most. like, i don't want to have to wait until later that night to watch it. if it's possible to sign up monthly, that's a bonus.
is there anything like this available? i was hoping that the 360 would carry something like that with ESPN3, but it appears that they're not covering the NFL. as far as i can see, NFL Game Pass is only accessible outside the states.
edit: i should note that i'm looking for LEGAL alternatives. i'm willing to pay for my football, i just don't know who to give the money to.

Fans were eager to hear what the frequent collaborators would offer. (LA Times Blog)
Movie star and infamous loud-talker Samuel L. Jackson is set to host this year's awards, with artists including A$AP Rocky, Big Sean and Melanie Fiona set to appear as presenters.

La Crosse, Wisconsin (WXOW) ------ Sam Harris shares his story because a Rabbi told him he owes it to his people. And even though he smiles while talking to folks about his experience it will never be just a memory. Things go through my mind that I never talk about. I start off my morning with toast like many of us do. I remember being so hungry and so happy that I got a piece of bread that was 4 months old with green on it. If I go in traffic and I see a railroad going by I think of the people that were taken on those cattle cars."
In 1939 Sam was 4 years old. That's when Nazi tanks rolled into his small town in Poland. Things would never be the same again. His family and millions of other Jewish people were tortured and killed. Some say Sam should be full of hate. "I took my children when they were very young to where Hitler lived for many years. I told them they could spit on the ground. Hate Hitler but do not hate the German people. I didn't want them to go through life hating. If I was to sit around hating guess who would be more harmed? me."
That's the message. Move on...but don't forget. "The message that I would like to carry on to the students is that good will prevail in the long run. It might be tough, it might be bad but we must remember so we don't repeat it in the future." @
Darryl Clott is the Holocaust Educator who brought Sam to the area. She knew the importance of his message and after reading his book so did the teachers and students at Westby High school. Student Chelsea Daines I will think twice before I complain. It just really makes you think twice before you complain and it makes me appreciate my family because they can be taken from you at any moment."
Teacher David Nelson was instrumental in getting Sam here too. "I think what Mr. Harris shared with us today and what ultimately he was saying is that we're all human beings and we should all care and protect each other."
You can hear Sam Harris speak at Viterbo's Fine Arts Center on Thursday April 11th at 7 PM. The event is free of charge.

In light of a storm cleanup effort that was going smoothly on Tuesday, town officials have indicated that conditions should be just fine for trick or treating tomorrow night, October 31st.
Last year's Snowtober storm saw trick or treating moved back a week to early November because of the number of wires down on the streets, among other hazards. This year's storm was formidable in many ways, but the week of rain over the North Shore that some forecasts called for apparently isn't going to happen.
While trick or treating is a go for Halloween 2012, the town noted in a separate announcement that trash collection for the week will be delayed by a day.
Below is the full text of a statement provided Tuesday afternoon by the Town of Lynnfield on conditions for trick or treating:
"Town offices and departments have received several inquiries about the status of Halloween trick-or-treating due to the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. While trick-or-treating is not a Town-sponsored event, the Town is advising residents that there are no major Town-wide safety issues that would require the postponement of trick-or-treating. Parents, however, should use their own judgment about any safety issues in their neighborhoods. Town officials are working with local utility providers to deal with power outages and safety conditions."

DVDs of Senior Interviews Being Produced by the Cumberland County Genealogical Society in Amherst, Nova Scotia
The Cumberland County Genealogical Society in Amherst, Nova Scotia has been going about a project in which they interview area senior citizens and then publish the interviews on DVD. The DVDs sell for only $7.95 – so if any of these folks are even slightly related (that's called shirt-tail back home) to you, it's a great deal! Who knows? If someone from the area where your folks lived was interviewed, that interview might also help with your family history.
Each DVD features one senior and includes family photos, a family tree, and heart-warming memories of school days, Christmas celebrations, work, and family. They help preserve local history and describe changes to family traditions and Cumberland County communities over the years.
Proceeds from the sale of the DVDs will allow CCGS to continue interviewing seniors who would like to preserve their memories.

Hi all. This is a shameless non basketball related post intended to tap into the wisdom and knowledge that I know exists amongst this site's members. I am not even going to talk about supreme court verdicts, international holidays, gourmet cooking, or music. Ok, maybe a little music:
If that doesn't put you in the mood for a good workout this simply isn't the thread for you.
Now, time to try and make a cognizant point. Wish me luck. I am seeking some ideas on how to best spend what little time I devote each week to working out. My primary goal is to maximize the benefit without getting into a fitness regimen that is more that I have time for, or interest in, pursuing. As you might guess, I am not a fanatic in this regard but I have become reasonably dedicated. Over the past two years I have lost just about 80lbs. Believe me, it needed to be done. The primary mechanism for this has been counting calories using an app and website (Calorie Count). I have heard that Myfitnesspal is even better but see no reason to make a change at this point. I have gone about this slowly and in a way that I believe to be sustainable. Here is a graph that demonstrates this:
Counting calories has taught me quite a bit about how to manage what I eat so that I can be both satisfied and healthier. I have learned more about what kinds of foods help keep me satiated longer and what foods are not worth it (donuts are rarely worth it, nachos usually are). I have also learned that I can continue to eat large satisfying meals and drink dark beer as long as I am thoughtful about when I do this and how often. There really are no foods I like that I do not regularly eat. Calorie counting is the way to go!
The second part of this is exercise which is where you come in. I have a routine and feel that it works but I have never really spoken to anyone who actually knows anything about these things.. I ride my bike when I can (in the summer) and play pick up basketball once per week. These things, along with walking the dog, are not going to change. It's the time I spend at SnapFittness that I wonder if I am using to full benefit.
First I will state my goals: 80% overall heath as defined by having more energy and living longer, 10% being better at basketball, and 10% looking better. So far I think I have been achieving these goals (although the last one is very subjective and is still relative to personal limitations). I get to the "gym" two or three times per week (usually twice) and only stay for about 30-40 minutes. I realize that this is not very much but I am purposely trying to build and maintain a routine that is sustainable over time within the context of my life. For the first year and a half I spent all of my gym time on the elliptical. Over the past six months or so I have added some light weight lifting to this routine. Typically I spend about 10 minutes quickly moving between some dumbbell exercises, crunches, and a squat machine and then head immediately to the elliptical for 15-25 minutes.
This routine works for me, I have been pleased with the results and it feels sustainable. The convergence of these three facts may render this whole post moot. Still, as I was ellipticaling this afternoon it occurred to me that I might not be using this admittedly small chunk time in the best possible way. If there were a small tweak I could make that would help me better achieve the aforementioned goals I guess I would be interested in knowing about it.
This is where you come in Canis Hoopus. This subject does come up from time to time and I know that many of you take this kind of thing very seriously. Any and all advice is appreciated. I admit that I am not likely to follow advice that is too complicated or too difficult but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. Any further knowledge I can gain in this regard can only be helpful. I have also been thinking about turing towards something that might better balance mind and body such as yoga or Tai Chi but so far I haven't taken any steps in this direction.
So what do you think? Am I already on the right path? Is there something else I should be doing? Should I just say flynn it and head to the Pizza Ranch? Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Here is some Bob Ross to help you think about it.

Why Protest? Why Even Be There?
When the Southern Collector Road finally opened the other day, I stood there with Sam Brown and a few friends holding up signs protesting the road that cut Sam's 250 year old farm in two so a few commuters could cut their hour commute by 4 or five minutes. I know … what a waste of a Friday morning, I am sure most people say. You cannot stop progress. Today I spent 20 minutes held up on the back road going from Hamilton to Lincoln by a VDOT crew paving over the gravel road that had carried Loudounites between the two villages for centuries. Once again, progress, which cannot be stopped. Someone's Lexus was getting dust on it. But why bother? It is a good question. … Continue Reading
