Awards honour for Chorley alcohol nursing team
7:00am Sunday 23rd February 2014 in News
A hospital alcohol team which works in Chorley has been shortlisted for a national nursing award.
Lancashire Teaching Hospitals Trust's alcohol liaison service was created in April 2013 in a bid to tackle the increase in patients being admitted to our hospital with alcohol related issues.
The team comprises Emma Dermody, clinical lead nurse, Kerry Anderson, Keighley Allan and Angela Platt, all clinical nurse specialists who work seven days a week across both Chorley and South Ribble Hospital and Royal Preston Hospital.
Since the team was established in April a total of 1,061 referrals have been made to the service.
In 2010/2011 alcohol related harm cost the NHS in Lancashire £141.92 million.
In central Lancashire alcohol related hospital admissions have increased each year from 2005 to 2011.
The aim of the service is to reduce the rate of increase in alcohol related hospital emergency admissions, reduce the length of stay in hospital for alcohol related issues.
The Nursing Standard Nurse Award awards recognise nurses who make contributions to improving and protecting the public's health.
Members of the team will travel to London on February 28 to be interviewed by a panel and then the winners will be announced at an awards ceremony in London on May 9.
Emma Dermody, said: "We set up the service just under a year ago when it was identified that reducing alcohol related hospital admissions is not only a priority nationally but locally too.
"We look at patients who are admitted to hospital multiple times as this could indicate that there are unmet needs that need addressing and we also work with patients who are drinking harmfully and hazardously."

Tom Larscheid To Retire From Canucks Color Commentary
Tommy say it ain't so! It is a sad day for Canucks fans as the legend Larscheid is hanging up his headphones and "passing the baton" to Dave Tomlinson. The witty 70 year old has been a voice for the Canucks since 1977. Larscheid will provide one final performance on the Team 1040: The Canucks' season opener against the Kings on October 9th. Larsheid coined the phrase: "Bingo Bango Bongo! His name is Roberto Luongo!" and many others. He will be sorely missed.

An Example Of Why I Consider The Obama Administraion "Naive"
For once, Joe Biden was right – he prophesied that within 6 months of taking office Barack Obama would be tested on the world stage.
Well, we're a bit early, but thus for his performance has been underwhelming as it pertains to Iran. Even Biden and Hillary Clinton want to see a stronger response.
Instead we got silence, then a mealy-mouthed response and recently a bit stronger but still using language that vaguely supports the Iranian regime.
Today the House and Senate passed resolutions concerning Iran.
The Senate version ""condemns the ongoing violence against demonstrators by the Government of Iran and pro-government militias, as well as the ongoing government suppression of independent electronic communication through interference with the Internet and cellphones."
It seems the House version now sounds like the Senate version, because apparently the White House was not pleased with the original version of the House resolution (it was too strongly worded for their taste), and helped the House "tone down" the resolution. Robert Gibbs then said the resolutions were consistent with the administration.
"We made it clear that we didn't want to make the U.S. a foil in a debate that has nothing to do with us," a senior administration told me this morning. "This is a debate among Iranians."
The dangerous naivete? The belief that a totalitarian regime that has made the US their "foil" for 30 years wouldn't do it at the drop of a hat when there was trouble?
And guess what? They have.
So the US has silenced itself based on the false presumption that Iran would only blame them for meddling if we said something.
Naive. Dangerous. And a sure way to loose any moral leverage in any future negotiations should the regime survive tomorrow.
Iran: The Gauntlet Is Thrown – Power To The People
We may be getting ready to see a repressive regime underestimating the power of the people or we may be on the cusp of another Tiananmen Square.
Ayatollah Khamenei didn't budge an inch in his speech today:
Addressing Friday prayers at Tehran University, the bearded septuagenarian offered no concessions to the millions of irate Iranians who have taken to the streets this week. Instead he issued an unmistakable warning to Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi, the defeated candidates.
"Those politicans who have influence on people should be very careful about their behaviour if they act in an extremist manner," he said. "This extremism will reach a level which they will not be able to contain. They will be responsible for the blood, violence and chaos."
"The Supreme Leader has drawn a line in the sand, and he has the muscle to back it up," one Iranian analyst said. "His speech was a polite way of saying 'Hey – there's a coup and we're in charge.' It was an absolute declaration of power."
Indeed it was. And Fox just had a correspondent on now in Tehran who has been seeing armed militias setting up at all the key intersections in the city.
Ayatollah Khamenei demanded the demonstrations stop. "I want to tell everyone these things must finish. These street actions are being done to put pressure on leaders but we will not bow in front of them," he said. "I call on all to put an end to this method…If they don't they will be held responsible for the consequences and chaos."
"Consequences and chaos" seems a pretty clear indication that Khamenei plans on taking action of some type should the planned protests materialize tomorrow.
And the opposition?
But protestors said they would attend today's rally come what may. "If the crowd is large enough there's nothing they can do," Bahrooz, an engineer, said. "If they start killing people that would bring about the fall of the regime."
"All my friends are coming and they're bringing their families," Taraneh, an office worker, said. "How many people can they arrest or kill?"
Brave words. Courageous intent. I wish them well and pray for their success.
But the bottom line is the guy who presently enjoys the monopoly on the use of force in that country has, in a somewhat nuanced way, announced he's willing to use it.
But then the protester has a point as well. I believe we're going to see a violent crackdown. The question then is do those who will have to inflict the violence upon the protesters have the will to see it through to completion – completion being killing and/or arresting enough protesters necessary to completely gut the protest movement.
I'm not sure, but I'm afraid we're going to find out.
Iran: Khameni Speaks
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, head of the all powerful Guardian Council, gave his much anticipated speech in Iran today.
He effectively closed any chance for a new vote by calling the June 12 election a "definitive victory."
The speech created a stark choice for opposition candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi and his supporters: drop their demands for a new vote or take to the streets again in blatant defiance of the man endowed with virtually limitless powers under Iran's constitution.
This also leaves Mousavi with a very stark choice – back off and essentially support the regime, or put himself in a position to become an enemy of the regime. But what seems fairly clear is Khamenei isn't going to sanction a new vote nor is he going to accept a different outcome. As proof of that, Khamenei essentially waves away the charge of voting fraud:
Khamenei said the 11 million votes that separated Ahmadinejad from his top opponent, Mousavi, was proof that fraud did not occur.
"If the difference was 100,000 or 200,000 or 1 million, one may say fraud could happen. But how can one rig 11 million votes?"
Of course we all know the arguments against this probability – i.e. Iran uses all paper ballots, polls were open until midnight and within hours the final results were announced (with skeptics pointing out it was physically impossible to count those ballots that quickly).
As was expected, Khamenei echoed the Ahmadinejhad charge of foreign (external) interference:
Khamenei blamed foreign media and Western countries of trying to create a political rift and stir up chaos in Iran.
"Some of our enemies in different parts of the world intended to depict this absolute victory, this definitive victory, as a doubtful victory," he said, according to an official translation on state TV's English-language channel. "It is your victory. They cannot manipulate it."
Khameni's speech sets up the possibility of a real confrontation between the regime and protesters:
Amnesty International said it was "extremely disturbed" by the speech, saying it indicated the "authorities' readiness to launch violent crackdowns if people continue to protest".
Amnesty says latest reports suggest that around 15 protesters have been killed and hundreds more injured or arrested by security forces.
A protest is scheduled in Tehran for tomorrow:
Demonstrators calling for a new election earlier vowed to stage fresh protests on Saturday.
But the governor of Tehran province, Morteza Tamadon, has said no permission has been given for such a rally and he hoped it would not be held.
The question, of course, is how will the regime react. Allahpundit at Hot Air has posted some interesting information about a rumored purge supposedly happening within the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. If true they indicate that the regime is planning a violent and lethal crackdown of the protesters.
Supporting the "Obama" of Iran?
I got a good laugh out of this particular characterization by Mohsen Makhmalbaf, the external spokesperson for Mir Hossein Mousavi. Foreign Policy magazine interviewed him in Paris:
FP: There has been growing criticism here in Washington that U.S. President Barack Obama hasn't said or done enough to support those demonstrating in the streets of Iran. Do you think Obama is being too careful? Or even that he is helping Ahmadinejad by being cautious?
MM: Obama has said that there is no difference between Ahmadinejad and Mousavi. Does he like it himself [when someone is] saying that there is no difference between Obama and [George W.] Bush? Ahmadinejad is the Bush of Iran. And Mousavi is the Obama of Iran.
FP: Would Mousavi pursue a different foreign policy than Ahmadinejad?
MM: As you may know, former President Mohammad Khatami, who is supporting Mousavi at the moment, was in favor of dialogue between the civilizations, but Ahmadinejad talks about the war of the civilizations. Is there not any difference between the two?
We [Iranians] are a bit unfortunate. When we had our Obama [meaning President Khatami], that was the time of President Bush in the United States. Now that [the United States] has Obama, we have our Bush here [in Iran]. In order to resolve the problems between the two countries, we should have two Obamas on the two sides. It doesn't mean that everything depends on these two people, but this is one of the main factors.
The only problem is there is nothing to really indicate that concerning the large issues – nuclear weapons, funding terror organizations (Hamas/Hezbollah) and keeping the Palestinian/Israeli situation stirred up, there'd be any difference at all.
As the Times of London reminds us:
Mr Mousavi, 67, is a creature of the political Establishment — a former revolutionary and prime minister who would like to liberalise Iranian politics but has never challenged the system in the way his followers are doing.
So the question remains who is this guy in reality? In fact he may be more like Obama than we imagine. He's riding a wave of "hope and change" in Iran that may be completely different than what he's willing or able to deliver. In other words, just as here in the US, he's letting those who support him decide what "hope and change" mean for the purpose of putting him in power. He'd then govern as an establishment president albeit with a softer and more diplomatic touch.
The first indicator of his true colors comes today:
The moderate Iranian leader who says that he was robbed of victory in last week's presidential election faces a fateful choice today: support the regime or be cast out.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran's Supreme Leader, has told Mir Hossein Mousavi to stand beside him as he uses Friday prayers at Tehran University to call for national unity. An army of Basiji — Islamic volunteer militiamen — is also expected to be bussed in to support the Supreme Leader.
The demand was made at a meeting this week with representatives of all three candidates who claim that the poll was rigged, and it puts Mr Mousavi on the spot. He has become the figurehead of a popular movement that is mounting huge demonstrations daily against the "theft" of last Friday's election by President Ahmadinejad, the ayatollah's protégé.
Will he stand by Khamenei or will he defy him? My money's on him supporting the regime.
Welcoming home a fallen soldier
Henry County, Georgia recently welcomed home Staff Sgt. John Beale, who was killed two weeks ago in Afghanistan. Last Thursday, the citizens of his home and neigboring counties lined up along the side of the street along the procession to pay their respects.
The first video was put together by State Rep. Steve Davis, who represents most of Henry County in the Georgia General Assembly:

The New York Red Bulls have the unenviable record of being the only original MLS club to yet win a major trophy, be it the MLS Cup or the US Open Cup or even the Supporters Shield for the best regular-season record. And despite reaching the playoffs in 13 of their 17 seasons, the Red Bulls have advanced beyond the quarterfinals just once in postseason play.
Head coach Mike Petke, who played in defense for the franchise for eight of his 13 MLS seasons, takes over the managerial duties full-time after Hans Backe declined the opportunity to extend his contract. Petke, who was an assistant coach with the team, intimately understands the New York philosophy and should provide a relatively seamless transition as the leader of the staff.
What remains to be seen is how New York responds to the challenge from the rest of the Eastern Conference. While they nabbed a playoff spot last year, they were also just five points from missing out on the postseason. Will Petke be able to instill more consistency in this side now that he is in charge, or will the Red Bulls fall victim to a slump that allows other Eastern Conference challengers to rise up and overtake them in the standings?
The Red Bulls opened their preseason training in Bradenton, Florida. There they faced the Columbus Crew in their first preseason match, getting goals from Ian Christianson and Kenny Cooper in a 2-0 victory. Six days later, New York prevailed over Swedish side Malmo FF, scoring two goals in the final five minutes of play to reverse a 2-1 deficit into a 3-2 win.
From Florida the Red Bulls traveled to Tucson for the Desert Diamond Cup preseason tournament. In the opening match in Arizona, New York faced Real Salt Lake. After their opposition went up 2-0 within the first three minutes, the Bulls fought back to tie things up and gain a point from the effort. In the next match, it was NY which forfeited an early lead as the New England Revolution rode a second-half surge to a 3-1 victory.
In the final match of group play, the Red Bulls were shut out by the Seattle Sounders 2-0 and relegated to the consolation match in Tucson. Playing a rematch against the Revolution, New York looked even more inept than they had in their first match against the Eastern Conference challenger. By halftime the score was 2-0 New England, which would hold up until the final whistle. The ignominious result left New York with a preseason record of 2-3-1, the early promise of the Florida swing turning ugly in the desert.
A native of New York, 22-year-old Ryan Meara seized the starting job in goal at the beginning of the 2012 season and acquitted himself well. The second-round pick in the 2012 SuperDraft started 18 of the club's 34 games and went 9-5-4. Now that Bill Gaudette, signed midway through the summer last year, is no longer with the team Meara should get even more playing time. Luis Robles earned four starts last year, finishing 2-1-1 with 3 goals against, and will serve as the primary backup. Santiago Castano, who turns 18 on April 14, was signed in December as a Red Bulls Homegrown player and will basically provide emergency relief for the position.
The back line has seen some retooling as new players have been brought in to shore up a unit that allowed the third-most goals in the Eastern Conference in 2012. Battling for the center-back spots are incumbent starters Markus Holgersson and midseason acquisition Heath Pearce as well as offseason acquisitions Jamison Olave and Digão. The fullback posts are going to be easier to determine. The team traded in December to get Kosuke Kimura from Portland to man the right side. The left spot has been locked down by Roy Miller, the team's primary starter at the position each of the past three years and amazingly the longest-tenured player with the Red Bulls. Connor Lade, after a strong rookie season, brings versatility off the bench with the ability to play pretty much anywhere on the pitch besides in goal. Brandon Barklage, a defensive midfielder who spent time in central defense last season, can be pressed into service as necessary.
The midfield gets a jolt from the addition of free-agent signing Juninho, the 38-year-old Brazilian attacking midfielder (not to be confused with the 24-year-old of the same name on the Galaxy roster) who provides a deadly set-piece striker and will help set up his teammates all over the pitch. Dax McCarty should also earn a role in the three-man midfield, ready to enjoy his second full season in New York after a midseason trade in 2011 from DC United. Lloyd Sam, who played in just five games last season before blowing out his posterior cruciate ligament in his knee, returns and could potentially earn a starting role. Tim Cahill could also get a look here, though Petke might choose to move the Australian further forward as well. 2013 draft picks Ian Christianson and Michael Bustamante provide depth at any of the three spots, while the team also nabbed Jonny Steele and Eric Alexander in a pair of winter trades to enrich the position further.
In attack everything centers around French international Thierry Henry, the team's first Designated Player and the key cog that drives the offense. Despite missing nine games with hamstring and calf injuries in 2012, Henry scored 15 goals for the club to help guide them to the playoffs. In the deal that also brought Olave to the roster, the Red Bulls also acquired Fabian Espindola, who had 35 goals over six years with Real Salt Lake. The Argentinian striker should claim one spot in the attack, while the other will likely go to Cahill. Josue Martinez was brought in from the Philadelphia Union in exchange for Sebastian Le Toux, and Homegrown signing Amando Moreno won't be rushed onto the pitch too early in his development.
New York will be looking to make a splash at some point this season for another Designated Player to replace the released Mexican defender Rafael Marquez, given the vacant allocation slot. But more important than getting another new superstar will be integrating a ton of new players into the roster in 2013. How well — and how quickly — they manage to mesh as a unit will determine whether the Red Bulls can retain their position in the top five in the East.

Recent debate on the standard classroom Initiation–Response–Follow-up pattern has focused particular attention on the final move and the contribution it can make to productive interaction in teacher-fronted situations. This paper suggests that current research in this area has tended to exaggerate the pedagogic impact of changes based on specifiable discourse moves, proposing instead an approach to analysis which takes account of the dynamic nature of identity construction and its relationship to the development of ongoing talk. It challenges the view that the concept of classroom conversation is inherently contradictory and, drawing on the work of Zimmerman (1998) related to the broader field of Membership Categorization Analysis, demonstrates how shifts in the orientation to different aspects of identity produce distinctively different interactional patterns in teacher-fronted talk. Using Zimmerman's distinction between discourse, situated and transportable identities in talk, extracts from classroom exchanges from different educational contexts are analysed as the basis for claiming that conversation involving teacher and students in the classroom is indeed possible. The paper concludes with a discussion of the pedagogical implications of this.

sorry, but the above picture says it all. every year when I host a panel about amazing women in film at the Woodstock Film Festival, we discuss male critics being the final gatekeepers for women's features entering the marketplace. As someone who has attended Sundance since 1986, and a working critic since 1989, who knows and enjoys the company of Mark, Owen and Eugene, and proudly saw the female-led Frozen River win the Grand Jury Award for Dramatic Feature, I've got to ask you with both respect and passion: how does this all-male image of a Sundance critics' panel strike you?
your colleague,

how can 49% speak from a position of authority for 100% of the population?
maybe math classes in our country are teaching to the skew, but this equation doesn't make sense anywhere.
Meira Blaustein | January 31, 2008 1:59 AM
Funny, the AMAZING WOMEN IN FILM panel was created at the Woodstock Film Festival specifically in order to spotlight, annually, the accomplished works of a diverse group of women in the industry, and indeed, it is always fabulous. Not sure how or why the panel Thelma is referring to did not include any women, specifically since there is a good number of very strong women film critics out there, Thelma being only one of a large and vocal group. As the one who puts together most of the panels at Woodstock, I'm always very aware of having a good mix from both genders. Granted, it is not always as balanced as I would like to, but I do try. Perhaps it is because I am a woman?
Brian | January 30, 2008 7:03 AM
While I missed the Sundance "Critics Cornered" panel at Sundance, I did have the great fortune to be at "The Amazing Women in Film" panel that Thelma is referring to at Woodstock. My notes here:
I am always for a diverse as possible spectrum of panelists for multiple points of view.

[From the FanPosts, one of many good takes in the immediate aftermath of the season ending on Thursday night from KR3044 - TL]
So it's over. The sting of elimination lingers. But it was a great year. The fans were privileged to witness a group of guys who were not only great on the court, but just so damned easy to get behind and root for. There were no shootings, or domestic violence, hell Lance even managed not to chuck the mrs down the stairs! No, this was a group of high class and high effort guys. Sounds good right? Well it gets even better, after that, the core of this team, with the exception of David West, are young and only going to get better. But on to the contracts later.
So that group of guys went out and kicked ass. They had no national TV exposure, but no matter they simple won games, @ Boston @ LA @ Chicago @ Dallas and they stormed into the all star break nearly ten games over .500 and the surprise team of the league. They boasted a young first time all star in big roy. And still no one took notice, ESPN when handed a note explaining that the sixers and pacers were young, talented, and winning ball games, they responded by playing a game of them playing each other and no more. Everyone who expected the Pacers to fade were met with disappointment when they continued to roll. The Pacers broke through and beat the heat, then proceeded to roll through april and snatch the 3 seed away from the Magic, Celtics, and Hawks, all teams with a great deal more experience. The playoffs came, and the Pacers with the 5th best record in the league, were brushed aside and almost entirely regulated to NBA TV, where with the exception of a horrendous game 1, proceeded to put away a magic team that was in chaos.
And then came the big one, a physical, trash talking, entertaining as hell 2nd round match with the Heat. The Pacers forced the country to take notice, and succeeded in putting a fright in heat homers all over the world. And when lebron and wade simply took their game to a level of such fantastic play that the pacers couldn't keep up, it ended. But not before something happened that made this Pacer fan proud. Most of the crowd stayed and applauded the Pacers, chanting them off the court with Thank you Pacers. A gesture of class that I would have not expected earlier in the year, and a sign that the fans appear to have taken notice and are ready for another era of Pacer quality basketball.
And so now, it's time for the off season, and I will give my take on what I think we should do.
First things first, our free agents and what to do with them.
1.Roy Hibbert. This one is obvious. You have to resign him, b/c while he is inconsistent and maddening at times, there are simply not that many good centers in the league, and I'd rather have a solid starting center for years to come, than the alternative.
2.George Hill. This one is tough. There are so many variables to this piece. If the pacers think that hill and collison are the two PG's they want to move forward with(I don't agree with that thought) then they should resign him. If they sign a Williams or Nash, then they must decide who to keep as the backup hill or collison. My personal opinion is see if he would agree to being the 6th man and resign him to a contract appropriate to that title. If he insists on being paid like a starter or being a starter, than i'm afraid that the door is open and he is free to go.
3. AJ Price. As much as I love a low percentage jump shooting third string PG, I'm going to have to let Mr. Price go. He simply has no potential to get to even a backup PG level of play.
Unrestricted Free Agents.
1.Lou Amundson. He has spark, he rocks a dangerous ponytail, but as we saw in the playoffs, he was just about worthless and part of the reason our 2nd unit was taken out to the woodshed on a regular basis. They are plenty of high energy big guys out there, so I say let Lou go.
2.Leandro Barbosa. Sometimes your shot goes in and you look so good. Most of the time, you hog the ball like your kobe bryant, play no D, and will prolly command a decent amount of money. No thanks.
3.Krylo Fesenko. So we are looking for another backup big man to replace lou, I say if he signs for cheap, let Big Fez after a full off season come in and play some minutes as your backup 5. His D is undeniable. And while he lacks the ponytail, a 7 foot russian rocking a bieber cut is almost as amusing.
4.Dahntay Jones. He has a player option I believe, if he wants more minutes he will leave, if he comes back, I have no problem, he is a solid player who simply fits into a rotation.
So under my assumptions the remaining roster will be as such.
PG Collison or Hill
SG Paul George
SF Danny Granger
PF David West
C Roy Hibbert
2nd Unit
PG Collison or Hill
SG Lance and Jones
SF Jones
PF Psycho T and Pendergraph
C Fez
Now the team has cap space and thus should make some moves in the draft and free agency.
For the draft, i didn't watch much college ball, but as this team is set at most of need spots, I say draft the best available potential.
Free Agency
I will list the options in the order I would prefer.
PG options
1. Deron Williams. He's a scorer. He's a Dime machine. He's a star simply put. Will he want to come to Indiana? No. Will he want to come to a balanced young team that could be a PG away from Elite status? Hell yeah. Look, if he will sign, then you sign him. Period. You can't pass up a superstar at your weakest position, you just can't. Obviously if he signs, than either Hill or Collison can and should be moved for a decent piece in return.
2.Goran Dragic. This kid just passes my eye test. He reminds me of a younger steve nash, prolly b/c he played behind steve. I remember when he came in for nash in the playoffs and tore it up. His stats when starting with Houston this year, are 18 points and 8.5 assists. If signed the same trade option applies.
3.Steve Nash. He's old. I've heard a few people worry about his health? Which I don't understand seeing as he played at least 70 games in every year since 2000, including all but 4 games this year. And is he washed up? Well he only manged to dish out 10.7 assist to a team consisting of scoring options such as Gortat, a 75 year old Grant Hill, and Jared Dudley. Oh and btw, he also shot a CAREER high 53 percent from the field this year. This guy is a stud among studs, and if he will sign then hell to the yeah. If signed the same trade option above applies.
4.Andre Miller. This isn't an option I look forward to. This option means that Williams, Nash and Dragic have spurned us. That Hill demanded too much money and left. This option means that we have to sign a backup PG or we will be handed the role off to Born Ready(Not quite ready yet for that option, someday maybe.) Let's hope option 4 never arises.
This really only applies to a backup 2 guard, as Paul George is anchored in as the starter.
1.Ray Allen. I'm sure he will stay in Boston, but if he leaves and wants to sign with a contender, go for it. Can't go wrong with a guy as clutch as he is from downtown.
2.Jason Terry. I don't see him coming here either, but he is instant offense off the bench and would give us some much needed scoring.
3.This one is a tie, as I personally don't find either option appealing.
1.Eric Gordon. Obviously this wouldn't be for a backup 2 guard. If we sign him, that means he is starting at the 2, which means george moves to the 3, which means Granger is traded. I know he went to IU, but he is just too damn injury prone and not even clearly better than Granger, so I can't justify this signing.
2.OJ Mayo. I'm keeping my options open but no. no. no. and no. Doesn't fit my mental picture of "Team Player"
Really not much on the market here. Maybe this should be our first round draft pick?
Also a bit empty. Either stick with Tyler, or maybe sign Earl Clark?
If we aren't comfortable with Fez, we can explore an option we talked about at the deadline.
Chris Kaman. He can score, which is light years ahead of what we would get out of Lou or Fez, D isn't as good though so there's that. All in all, Center is also dry on the market, because really what team lets good centers go.
So wow. I didn't anticipate typing this novel. But it all spewed out.
I enjoyed the season and look forward to next's.
Agree? Disagree? Leave your thoughts.

The Timberwolves' coaching search just got very interesting.
According to league sources, former Houston coach Rick Adelman will be the fourth candidate to interview with the Wolves when he comes to town tomorrow to see David Kahn and owner Glen Taylor.
Adelman all along has looked like the dream hire who'd solve a lot of the Wolves' problems, if he's interested.
Well, it looks like he is now, at least enough to listen.
Awesome news, if true . . .
It also completely contradicts what I (and others smarter than me) thought about the Wolves' head coaching job: perhaps it's not as much of a suicide mission as we perceived (although, I'll believe these people are really interested in the position when they actually take the position. But still!).

Instantly share screenshots on your Mac for free (how-to)
Have you ever wanted a speedy way to share screenshots, that is free, and doesn't require you to give away your privacy? I have been on the market for a product that fits these criteria. I've gone through multiple sharing apps, such as GrabBox, puush, or Slingshot — some worked fine, some didn't, others wanted me to pay, or register to a service. I never really managed to find one that is simple and discreet to my liking, so I decided to combine two of the tools that make my life a million times easier on my Mac. Dropbox and Automator. The idea is to have the default OS X screenshot key combinations (⌘-⇧-3 and ⌘-⇧-4) save screenshots directly in Dropbox's public folder. This could be accomplished by simply changing the default path for screenshots, but this is not enough, I want to go a step further.
I want to have the link to the screenshot copied to my clipboard as soon as the image is uploaded, ready for sharing. This is where Automator comes in.
1) The first step is to launch Automator, which is found in the Applications folder.
2) You are going to create a new "Folder Action," which allows you to specify events that happen as soon as a change in a specified folder is detected. The folder we are looking to track is the Desktop, as this is where OS X screenshots are saved by default.
3) Next, you need to filter the contents of the desktop so that only the screenshot is selected. To accomplish this you need to drag from the actions palette, on the left, the "Filter Finder Items" action, and configure it as follows.
4) Now that the script has the screenshot selected, it needs to move it to Dropbox's Public folder. The action needed here is "Move Finder Items." This can be dragged from the palette on the left as well.
5) This is where things get interesting, you need to provide a short shell script that will be executed every time we take a screenshot. This script will essentially construct the URL that links to our screenshot and copy it to the clipboard. To add the shell script drag in from the palette the "Run Shell Script" action. You also need to pass the input to the script "as arguments." Clear the default snippet and paste in the following code. You also need to replace the "XXXXXXX" part in the first line of the code with your Dropbox user id. This can be found by using Dropbox's "Copy Public Link" feature on any existing file in the public folder. Pasting this link anywhere will reveal the user id which you need to include in the script.
combined="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/XXXXXXX/"$(basename $1) final=`echo $combined | sed 's/ /%20/g'` echo -ne ${final} | pbcopy afplay /System/Library/Sounds/Hero.aiff
6) The only thing remaining is to add a Growl notification, so that you get a message when the process is complete. To include this you need to make sure you have Growl installed, and drag in from the palette the "Show Growl Notification" action.
7) Finally save the folder action and exit Automator. That's it, you should now be able to instantly share any screenshot, simply using your default OS X key binding, wait for the notification and paste the link wherever you want.

PEORIA, Ill -- A fund has been set up to benefit a family whose home was damaged in a fire on Thursday.
The fire took place at 1110 W. Virgina Avenue at approximately 2:37 p.m. Firefighters say that the fire started in the home's bedroom. While the fire was contained to the bedroom, the rest of home sustained heat and smoke damage. Damage is estimated to be at $15000.
The family of four that rented the above address had only lived there for a few months. The family does not have insurance. The family has two children, aged five and four years old.
Checks can be mailed to or dropped off at any CEFCU location. Checks must have "FBO Maddalena Roe" written on them.


text: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is predicting a record-size "dead zone" in the Gulf of Mexico this summer.Researchers say the dead zone is caused when nitrogen-based fertilizer washes off farm fields and ends up in the Mississippi River, which flows into the Gulf. The end result is the death of many fish, and researchers in the Coastal Bend say it can affect recreational and commercial fishing."So if you have low-oxygen water or no water off the Texas Coast, and the fish can't survive there, then all the tourism begins to be affected," said Dr. Larry McKinney, director of the Harte Research Institute at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. "So we have a tremendous economic stake in what happens off the Mississippi River."Experts say the only thing that would fix the situation sooner is a tropical storm or a hurricane to stir up the water and re-oxygenate the area.

DENISON, TX - Dozens of people filled the Eisenhower auditorium Tuesday night at Denison high school to watch a talent show put on by the theater department.
It's a performance they do every year to raise money for the spring semester, but this year the students are using the money to help a fellow classmate in a devastating time of need.
Just about 2 months ago, sophomore, Nicholas Casarez's life took a very scary turn.
In a matter of just minutes, a stroke took him away from life as he knew it.
Now his friends are helping in the fight to get his life back.
On a normal night, 16 year old Nicholas Casarez would be getting ready to take the stage at Denison High School and perform.
"When I get up on the stage, it's undescribable," said Nick.
"I never expect anything like this to happen."
"It's different, everything's different, he has a cane, a wheel chair, he has to do everything different, has to be handicapped accessible," said Nick's mom, Cammie Casarez.
On January 19th out of no where, something happened to Nicholas that changed everything.
Cammie Casarez says her healthy son suddenly became weak and unable to respond, that's when the nightmare began.
They called 911.
On the way to TMC he started having seizures in the ambulance. From TMC he was flown to Parkland Hospital.
"When we got there that's when we had to start signing the paperwork for them to be able to put the tube to relieve the pressure in his head and go ahead and do the craniotomy and do what they needed to do, he had tubes all over him," said Casarez.
Doctors said Nick suffered a stroke caused by bleeding in his brain and they needed to remove part of the bone from his skull or he could die.
After 14 days under heavy sedation, Nick finally woke up, but the nightmare isn't over.
He's paralyzed on the right side of his body, and the chances of a full recovery are slim.
The stroke affected his speech so nick struggles to get his words out.
"I um really miss going to school."
But his friends are speaking for him.
"We don't need any of this money as badly as his family needs it, from all of the expenses traveling back and forth to Dallas, and so it really means a lot to just give up our last fundraiser to him," said Brittany Corwin.
And Nick says he's not at all scared about what the future holds.
"Cause I saw God, he told me that I'm going to get better."
All of the money raised tonight by Nick's friends will go to help his family with medical bills.

Police have released a sketch of a serial fondler in Fairfax County. Police say he approaches his victims on the street, usually from behind, fondles them, and then runs away. He has struck five times and all of the attacks have occurred in Springfield.
Police have come up with the sketch after talking with several victims. They have described the suspect to police as a man in his 30s with dark eyes and a neatly trimmed beard.
FOX 5 showed the sketch to the teenager who was victimized a week ago while walking in her neighborhood around 9 a.m. After looking at the sketch, she added the man had hairy arms and wore dark glasses.
"I was coming to my house because I left my sister at school, which is like one minute away from here walking, and I was coming back and somebody came behind me and was started to touch me," said the teen victim. "I never met this guy before, never saw him before. The guy just kept touching me for five seconds, so I pushed him back and had time to look at him and I saw his face, but he was wearing glasses and a red hat and he started running away towards the school."
Since September 7th, police say the man has fondled woman and girls on a path in the 6700 hundred block of Metropolitan Center Drive as well as near the intersection of Old Keene Mill Road and Springfield Boulevard.
"Clearly he hasn't shown any signs of stopping, so that's the concern that you have somebody out there who is doing something that is invasive, that is upsetting and concerning to women," said Fairfax County Police spokesperson Lucy Caldwell.
On Erving Street, where a teenager was fondled a week ago, neighbors want this guy off the street now.
"It's disgusting," said neighbor Daryll Fine. "I'd put a stop to it myself and I've heard other people say that."
"Whenever I go out, I certainly look around for this guy. Police asked me to do that and I'm going to do it," said another neighbor, Art Ceigersmidt.
The victims say the man has said nothing during these encounters, which have occurred in the morning, midday and at night.

There's been a lot of hype around the release of Taylor Swift's latest music video, "I Knew You Were Trouble." After MTV's 30-second teaser Thursday morning, we finally got a peak at the video during Thursday night's premiere.
Tattered clothes, messy hair, parties, and escapades all make an appearance in this video, which although not unique to the music scene itself, is a first for Swift.
"I had just gone through an experience that made me write this song about knowing the second you see someone like, 'Oh, this is going to be interesting. It's going to be dangerous, but look at me going in there anyway," Swift told MTV News' Sway Calloway.
Featuring Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark star Reeve Carney as Swift's love interest, the video is a fast-paced look into the world of troubled love.
Although the spoken word intro airs on the side of dramatic, seeing Swift outside of her element is a refreshing change. Check out the video for yourself right here and let us know your thoughts on Swift's latest approach.

If only the replay system could be used to fix David Ortiz's swing.
For the second straight day at Fenway Park a potential home run was reviewed. Kevin Youkilis hit a shot to left field in the fifth inning but it was ruled foul. Meanwhile, Ortiz continued to struggle with an 0-for-5 day including two strikeouts.
Somehow, Boston continues to win considering Ortiz left 8 men on base on the day.
Youkilis got his retribution in the seventh inning launching a three-run shot to the Monster, seventh dinger of the season, padding the Red Sox lead at 12-5.
Mike Lowell also hit a three-run homer, his eighth of the season.
Goat of the Game – Papi
With a win usually follows a Star of the Game segment. Not this time. Papi is starting to become unbearable at the plate. Today was just another example of why Ortiz needs to be moved down in the order.
Next Game – 5/25 vs. Minnesota Twins – Brad Penny/Francisco Liriano
Guarantee Ortiz sits tomorrow.

LAS VEGAS -- A young Las Vegas man believed to be the head of a large drug-trafficking ring pled guilty Tuesday to several felonies and accepted a life sentence.
Oscar Cavadas, 27, was arrested last year by officers from the Southern Nevada Drug Task Force. They seized 200 pounds of methamphetamine, $300,000 in cash and 11 vehicles. He was one of 14 people charged in connection to the raid.
As part of the agreement made with the District Attorney's Office, Cavadas pled guilty to trafficking in controlled substances, unlawful possession of a firearm and conspiracy to violate the uniform controlled substances act.
"A lot of hard work by a lot of great law enforcement partners took a massive amount of narcotics off the streets," District Attorney Steven Wolfson said. "This was the largest methamphetamine bust ever in Southern Nevada, and now Mr. Cavadas will get an equally serious prison term."
Under the agreement, prosecutors and Cavadas have agreed to a sentence of life in prison. The formal sentencing is set for February. Prosecutors have agreed to ask that Cavadas be eligible for parole in nine years.

Quinoa flour is made from the ground up seeds of the quinoa plant. It is grain free and gluten free.
The flour itself is cream-coloured. The coarseness of the granules can vary from brand to brand, but you will find that flour made from quinoa is more coarse than ordinary wheat flour.
The flavor itself is quite strong compared to other flours. It gives your recipes a slight nutty flavor. It is suitable for use in sweet and savoury recipes, such as cookies, cakes, breads and pastas.
If you're looking to use quinoa flour instead of wheat flour, here are a few tips that will help you succeed:
1. In a traditional wheat recipe, try replacing up to 20% of the wheat flour with quinoa flour to get the taste and feel for quinoa. Leave the quantities of the other ingredients the same.
2. If you want to replace 100% of gluten containing flour in a recipe, you will probably need to vary the amounts of the other ingredients, the cooking time and the cooking temperature. It doesn't behave the same as gluten containing flours in the oven.
Every recipe is different, but some very general rules of thumb are (for which there are probably just as many exceptions – I know, it's so annoying. But look on the bright side: Grain and gluten free living will certainly keep your creative side ticking):
-Reduce the cooking time
-Reduce the cooking temperature
-Increase the amount of moisture in the recipe
-Increase or add more binding agent (such as eggs). The lack of gluten can mean the final result doesn't hold together as well. This rule is the least likely to be true, but it's worth keeping in mind if your results are less than amazing.
3. Try mixing the quinoa flour with other grain free flours and meals, such as almond meal, soy flour or buckwheat flour. It makes a good partner for the bean flours, like chick pea flour, which are often too heavy to use in baking on their own.
Head to the quinoa bread recipes here to try this out.
It doesn't always have to be partnered with other flours, however. There are many recipes made specifically for quinoa flour. Try this quinoa pasta recipe or this quinoa muffin recipe as two such examples.
Consistent with the quinoa grains (seeds) that it is made from, quinoa flour contains more protein than any other flour. It also contains zinc, iron, calcium, vitamin B, phosphorus, potassium, magnesium and manganese. It has a higher fat content than most other flours. In the milling process, some of this fat may be removed to produce a lighter flour. This will depend on the brand you buy. Click here to find out more about quinoa nutrition.
You will also find a real variation in the amount of processing the quinoa seed has undergone before it is milled into flour. As with grains, certain components of each grain/seed may be removed in a refining process, such as the outer bran layer. This reduces the nutritional value.
So with this in mind, different brands can really vary in taste and coarseness. If you don't like one brand, try another. You might find you have a particular preference.
A number of options exist, depending upon where in the world you live. Of course, online is the most universal place. Let's see what choice you have on Amazon:
Or, try:
-The health food section of a high end supermarket
-The health food store
-You can also make your own by grinding the raw quinoa seeds, or even quinoa flakes or puffed quinoa, in a grinder. If you're serious about your quinoa flour, a grain mill is the best option. But I've also done a very acceptable coarser grain flour in my basic $20 coffee grinder too, especially if I'm using puffed or flaked quinoa.
Amazon can help you here too:Amazon.com Widgets
Before you grind, just make sure the seeds have been rinsed first. Most brands of quinoa come pre-rinsed. See cooking quinoa for info on rinsing.
The higher protein and fat content mean that quinoa flour will go rancid more easily than wheat flour. Store in cool, dry place in sealed container, preferably the refrigerator, for up to 3 months .
It can also be frozen to extend shelf life to approx 6 months.

Ever tried buying flour in bulk and having it delivered? It's sooo much easier! Bob's Red Mill is my all time favourite for its fine grain and smoothness in texture.

I publicly stated that I would be online, telling people to not read too much into the Giants game, after we won. That I would remind people that the Giants' o-line was missing two starters, that Cruz had bad wheels, that JPP had a bad back. The cowboys would be fired up about defending their field. It was expected to win. Can't really take much from it.
While two of those three qualifiers may yet be true (Cruz certainly seemed fine), I was wrong. There's a lot to take from this game, which was, contrary to what many are saying and the score and late rally would have you believe, an absolute ass-kicking from beginning to end.
I was initially cautious and measured following the game, giving few opinions and just kind of enjoying the moment. Then, last night, I fired up my iPad and watched the game rewind. All-22 wasn't there yet, but I don't think I need to watch it. I was shocked at how dominant (Broaddus, please note spelling, if you are reading) Dallas, and particularly the Dallas Defense was.
Folks, that team got it's head handed to them and deep down they know it. They may talk-- Rolle has already publicly promised a different result next game. It doesn't matter. It's not dependent on them anymore.
Years ago, my father said of a brutal loss in Philadelphia that Troy Aikman and the Dallas Cowboys would never fear that team again. A couple of months later I got to watch, from the Texas Stadium seats, the Dallas Cowboys literally run right over the Eagles on their way to a super bowl. But dad had predicted that game, and Dallas's resilience in adversity, signaled a sea change for the team. He was right.
This was a similar bell weather game.
Much has been made of the many obvious positives:
- The offensive line looked better than it has in years.
- Frederick, in particular, already looks like a seasoned vet
- The defensive line was ridiculously good, and we are missing half the starters -- a strength just as Jerry said it was
- Turnovers were absolutely taken, not just gifted
- Romo played within himself and pretty error free, enjoying the bus ride (mostly)
- Murray ran for positive yardage almost every time he touched the ball and averaged 4.3 ypc
- Witten scored twice in the red zone
- The Special Teams found a new tackling weapon in Dwayne Harris and were lights out all game
- Penalties were WAY down. Only 5. Only 2 of those pre-snap. And two Witten flags were absolutely bogus
- 0 Delay of game issues, although there was the one play the defense was caught off guard. The team ran much more smoothly
- Dallas led from 10:07 in the 2nd qtr onward. That's the final FORTY MINUTES of the game. They also led about 10 minutes of the first qtr before the Giants tied. That's almost 50 minutes of playing with the lead. Last season at home, all 8 games combined, they had about 33 minutes of playing with a lead, and almost all of that came against Tampa Bay
- Most importantly, think of everything that was wrong from last year... notice anything? pretty much the entire list is up above... except one
Here come the "yaButts". 450 YDS PASSING!!!! 10.7 YPA!!!! 102.3 PASSER RATING!!! THE SKY IS FALLING!!! THE PASS DEFENSE IS WORSE THAN LAST YEAR!!! WE JUST GOT LUCKY WITH TURNOVERS OR THEY WOULD HAVE MOPPED THE FLOOR WITH US!!!
He he he... time to get "real" folks. You want realistic? I'll give you realist. This defense smothered the New York Giants. Embarassingly so. This was a slaughterfest... and presuming Eli Manning is a top QB, Hakeem Nicks and Victor Cruz are excellent WRs while Reuben Randle has a future in the NFL, and that David Wilson and Da'rell Scott don't deserve to be drummed out of the league, it was executed against a pretty decent NFL offense.
You already know about the 50 rushing yards given up. Did you know that two plays accounted for over half of them? And one those was against a prevent so deep that Barry Church, sprinting full speed forward to make the tackle, still met the RB 16 yds downfield? in other words, he was about 30yds deep before that. Take out the one run against a prevent defense and New York had 13 rushes for 34 yds, 2.6 ypc and two fumbles. That's stout.
But the pass defense. Oh my, the Pass defense.
When Dallas went up by 17, with 4:55 to go in the 3rd qtr (40:05 into the game), the coaches took their foot off the gas. The players didn't, mind you-- they still contested and fought for every ball, but the Safeties were backed totally out of the play allowing huge cushions underneath which were exploited by Manning and his WRs against our LBs in the middle zones. You can argue all day long that it was the wrong decision, but that is a playcall issue, not an execution issue or a capability issue.
Up till that point Eli Manning was 7/13, 185 yds, 1 TD, 2 INT. For the first half he was 5/11, 165 yds, 1 TD, 2 INT.
those numbers are bad, but, hey, it's still passer ratings in the 80s. What do you mean they were dominated, Dirk? That's *almost* respectable! We didn't kill them at all!
Well, now we have to look at what really happened. The Hakeem Nicks 57 yd play was legit, with our LBs biting on a play action leaving a big gap for Nicks to run right into. See Bob Sturm's Blog for details (and you should anyway, Bob is excellent reading). Allow me to say, here, that this was Allen's worst play of the night. He has a chance to stop this play for a moderate to large gain (~18-20yds) but takes a bad angle and gets run right by. But that one play accounts for a full THIRD of Eli's first half yardage and nearly a third of his 40 minute point yardage.
Nonetheless, that play *is* on the Dallas Defense. Cruz's 1st TD, however, is not. I don't mean that it shouldn't count or that there was some reason to remove it from the game, but the defense was literally caught flat footed by a late playcall (on the coaches, not the players) and there was very nearly no defense to beat. Manning astutely got the ball snapped and Victor Cruz ran right past a surprised Will Allen and Mo Claiborne for 70 yds and 6 points (though J J Wilcox *nearly* saved the TD). Now, for what the Giants really did to the Dallas defense, this play doesn't happen. It's a statistical flier of the most egregious sort. Take that one play away and Eli manning's stat lines look like this:
1st Half - 4/10, 95yd, 0 TD, 2 INT 35.4 passer rating
40:05 mark - 6/12. 115yd, 0 TD, 2 INT 44.1 passer rating
That's what Eli *really* looked like passing the ball against us, and remember, that still includes the Hakeem Nicks 57 yd play. Take that play out and it gets really bad. 3/9, 38yds, 0 Td, 2 INT 7.8 (!!) passer rating for the first half minus the two big plays.By the way, those are gross yardage totals-- there were two sacks in there as well to make the numbers even worse.
We. Shredded. Them.
But I can still hear the complaints: we let them get too close! they came back to within a score!
Yes they did... and you know how we responded? we got out of prevent and played real defense again. What do you think happened? Here are the Plays for those two drives. All of them:
Inc short right for Da'rell Scott
Inc short right for Hakeem Nicks
Sacked by Jason Hatcher
(after a Dallas Punt)
Pass Short middle to Da'rell Scott 5 yds
Inc short middle for Da'rell Scott
Pass Deep Middle for Reuben Randle for 26yds
Pass short right for Da'rell Scott intercepted by Brandon Carr returned 49 yds for a TD.
When we went back to normal defense instead of prevent Eli "Mr. 4th qtr comeback" Manning was 2/6 for 31 yds and a sack, 0 TD, 1 INT. Passer rating? 11.8
We literally shut them down at will. We took a top flight receiving corps, being thrown to by the poster boy for Clutch QBing and we destroyed them whenever we felt like it. This while two pro bowl defensive linemen watched in street clothes from the sideline, one of whom returned to practice (albeit in limited participation) today.
I fully intended to write a post calling for cool heads. Calling for calm. Calling for us to remember that the Giants were wounded and just not going to have the horses to stand up this game. Then I watched how hard our defense slapped them in the face time and time again. This defense is a force to be reckoned with. I sincerely hope that other teams look at the gaudy stat line and think they are going to waltz in here and light us up because we "once again have a suspect secondary". The shock and awe will be fun to watch.
There isn't enough kool aid in the world...

The Murray Police Department said an alleged shoplifter has been identified through social media.
On March 10, the police department released pictures of the suspect in the Murray Dollar General Store allegedly stealing children's hats with cartoon imprints, and requested the help of the public in identifying him.
After the release of the pictures, police say they received several calls identifying the person as William Les Fugate, 49, of Madisonville. They say callers said Fugate is a vendor at various area flea markets, including Paducah, Ky. and Union City, Tenn.
Police say Fugate was also identified as allegedly stealing from the Dollar General in Hardin, Ky.
After an investigation, a warrant was issued for Fugate for theft by unlawful taking.
Police had said that around 10 a.m. on Friday, March 7, a white or Hispanic male approximately 5'10" tall, 160 pounds, with a receding hairline was seen on video camera hiding merchandise in the Dollar General Store on North 12th Street in Murray.
The suspect is accused of taking children's hats with images of cartoon characters on them.

WILMINGTON, NC (WSFX) - UNC Wilmington officials released a report concerning a summer near-campus shooting and recommendations to the university's response.
The shooting happened around 4:20 p.m. at the Seahawk Square Apartment Complex on July 29th. The report says proper procedures were followed but the information could have been sent out more quickly.
The campus police chief told his staff to send out a campus-wide emergency alert via phone, text and email when the shooting was reported, but the alert was never sent.
The report goes on to recommend some steps that could lead to better communication if there is a future situation.
"We've already installed a new computer within our communications center and the only thing it's going to support is the emergency messaging system," said UNCW Police Chief David Donaldson.
Another issue campus authorities are addressing is the gray area of on-campus versus off-campus incidents.
"We need to identify the locations where the university has a specific invested interest and make sure we have the appropriate protocols in place," said Donaldson.
The Seahawk Square shooting was technically off-campus but close enough to call for UNCW enforcement. UNCW is talking with New Hanover County Emergency Management and the Wilmington Police Department about expanding campus law enforcement boundaries.

|The dreaded doctor visit
|Wednesday, July 31, 2013 1:34 PM
The dreaded doctor visit
By Joe Shouse
I hate going to the doctor. I know, hate is a strong word. My folks taught me at a very young age how wrong it is to hate people. So, let me again clarify what I am saying. I'm not saying I hate doctors, I am simply saying, I hate going to the doctor. Most men my age probably hate going to the doctor.
So, about three weeks ago I had to put my hate to the side and make the dreaded visit to my new friend. This trip was going to be a little different. Moving to a new area, I had to find a new physician willing to take new patients. I looked online and quickly found a handful of doctors in my area taking new patients. By the time I eliminated those whose name I could not pronounce and those who just didn't look like a doctor I would trust, I finally settled on one.
