About Us
Ilm 2 Amal
Opening comment from AE:
Although this long article below is quite the excellent journalism one now comes to expect from the New York Times, it is an incredibly sad read regardless of whatever faith background you may come from. Indeed there are certain realities uncovered below that I believe some Muslim communities themselves would do well to consider. Without naming specific groups amongst the wide Muslim diaspora, there is no doubt that there is a generic commonality between our people and the Jews in that we feel incredibly ashamed when such horrific crimes occur amongst us because of our claim to a more intense and "higher" standard and morality than "non-believers". We take it personally, almost like a failure of the message itself despite the fact that of course this is untrue – all races and religions have their criminals and diseased hearts and minds. Also, like the Jews and perhaps like the more juristic-minded Christians from within their many sects, we believe that our own divine legal system should deal with such matters as far as possible whether that be a Shari'ah court or Beth Din rabbinical courts. And that is only as far as the truly God-fearing, for many criminals will also want to try and escape divine justice even within their own religion.
I know for a fact that there are such incidents of sexual abuse that occur within Muslim communities and remain hidden because of:
(a) intense shame and dishonour – from a completely irreligious standpoint, rather from a cultural background – ensuring that even the victims cover up the crimes
(b) a belief that somehow the "religious" court such as a Shari'ah court or a Beth Din court will be more lenient and allow the criminal to escape serious jail-time etc
The sad fact is that both of these two reasons are in play within religious communities such as Muslims and Jews. And certainly from an Islamic point of view, this is why I believe that if Shari'ah will be unable to ensure full and complete justice (often via serious and perhaps captial punishments) in countries like the UK/US etc due to the legal restrictions of the law of the land, then it is permissible and sometimes necessary to go to the national authorities (police/government agencies) to ensure "justice" is achieved, whatever subjective definition one gives to that justice. At least, it will be better than getting away scot-free for the crime, and in some cases it will ensure that the crime is stopped in its tracks and that the regrettably unwanted attention causes the actions to become even more unwanted as well.
I stress that this is to be seen on a case-by-case basis, where one resorts to such actions when they feel the crime is too serious, and sincere efforts have failed to solve the problem "in-house" as it were without breaking the law. And this case below illustrates perfectly just when such a situation would apply.
Wallahu a'lam.
Sharon Otterman & Ray Rivera, The New York Times
The first shock came when Mordechai Jungreis learned that his mentally disabled teenage son was being molested in a Jewish ritual bathhouse in Brooklyn. The second came after Mr. Jungreis complained, and the man accused of the abuse was arrested.
Old friends started walking stonily past him and his family on the streets of Williamsburg. Their landlord kicked them out of their apartment. Anonymous messages filled their answering machine, cursing Mr. Jungreis for turning in a fellow Jew. And, he said, the mother of a child in a wheelchair confronted Mr. Jungreis's mother-in-law, saying the same man had molested her son, and she "did not report this crime, so why did your son-in-law have to?"
By cooperating with the police, and speaking out about his son's abuse, Mr. Jungreis, 38, found himself at the painful forefront of an issue roiling his insular Hasidic community. There have been glimmers of change as a small number of ultra-Orthodox Jews, taking on longstanding religious and cultural norms, have begun to report child sexual abuse accusations against members of their own communities. But those who come forward often encounter intense intimidation from their neighbors and from rabbinical authorities, aimed at pressuring them to drop their cases.
Abuse victims and their families have been expelled from religious schools and synagogues, shunned by fellow ultra-Orthodox Jews and targeted for harassment intended to destroy their businesses. Some victims' families have been offered money, ostensibly to help pay for therapy for the victims, but also to stop pursuing charges, victims and victims' advocates said.
"Try living for one day with all the pain I am living with," Mr. Jungreis, spent and distraught, said recently outside his new apartment on Williamsburg's outskirts. "Did anybody in the Hasidic community in these two years, in Borough Park, in Flatbush, ever come up and look my son in the eye and tell him a good word? Did anybody take the courage to show him mercy in the street?"
A few blocks away, Pearl Engelman, a 64-year-old great-grandmother, said her community had failed her too. In 2008, her son, Joel, told rabbinical authorities that he had been repeatedly groped as a child by a school official at the United Talmudical Academy in Williamsburg. The school briefly removed the official but denied the accusation. And when Joel turned 23, too old to file charges under the state's statute of limitations, they returned the man to teaching.
"There is no nice way of saying it," Mrs. Engelman said. "Our community protects molesters. Other than that, we are wonderful."
Keeping to Themselves
The New York City area is home to an estimated 250,000 ultra-Orthodox Jews — the largest such community outside of Israel, and one that is growing rapidly because of its high birthrate. The community is concentrated in Brooklyn, where many of the ultra-Orthodox are Hasidim, followers of a fervent spiritual movement that began in 18th-century Europe and applies Jewish law to every aspect of life.
Their communities, headed by dynastic leaders called rebbes, strive to preserve their centuries-old customs by resisting the contaminating influences of the outside world. While some ultra-Orthodox rabbis now argue that a child molester should be reported to the police, others strictly adhere to an ancient prohibition against mesirah, the turning in of a Jew to non-Jewish authorities, and consider publicly airing allegations against fellow Jews to be chillul Hashem, a desecration of God's name.
There are more mundane factors, too. Some ultra-Orthodox Jews want to keep abuse allegations quiet to protect the reputation of the community, and the family of the accused. And rabbinical authorities, eager to maintain control, worry that inviting outside scrutiny could erode their power, said Samuel Heilman, a professor of Jewish studies at Queens College.
"They are more afraid of the outside world than the deviants within their own community," Dr. Heilman said. "The deviants threaten individuals here or there, but the outside world threatens everyone and the entire structure of their world."
Scholars believe that abuse rates in the ultra-Orthodox world are roughly the same as those in the general population, but for generations, most ultra-Orthodox abuse victims kept silent, fearful of being stigmatized in a culture where the genders are strictly separated and discussion of sex is taboo. When a victim did come forward, it was generally to rabbis and rabbinical courts, which would sometimes investigate the allegations, pledge to monitor the accused, or order payment to a victim, but not refer the matter to the police.
"You can destroy a person's life with a false report," said Rabbi Chaim Dovid Zweibel, the executive vice president of Agudath Israel of America, a powerful ultra-Orthodox organization, which last year said that observant Jews should not report allegations to the police unless permitted to do so by a rabbi.
Rabbinic authorities "recommend you speak it over with a rabbi before coming to any definitive conclusion in your own mind," Rabbi Zweibel said.
When ultra-Orthodox Jews do bring abuse accusations to the police, the same cultural forces that have long kept victims silent often become an obstacle to prosecutions.
In Brooklyn, of the 51 molesting cases involving the ultra-Orthodox community that the district attorney's office says it has closed since 2009, nine were dismissed because the victims backed out. Others ended with plea deals because the victims' families were fearful.
"People aren't recanting, but they don't want to go forward," said Rhonnie Jaus, a sex crimes prosecutor in Brooklyn. "We've heard some of our victims have been thrown out of schools, that the person is shunned from the synagogue. There's a lot of pressure."
The degree of intimidation can vary by neighborhood, by sect and by the prominence of the person accused.
In August 2009, the rows in a courtroom at State Supreme Court in Brooklyn were packed with rabbis, religious school principals and community leaders. Almost all were there in solidarity with Yona Weinberg, a bar mitzvah tutor and licensed social worker from Flatbush who had been convicted of molesting two boys under age 14.
Justice Guston L. Reichbach looked out with disapproval. He recalled testimony about how the boys had been kicked out of their schools or summer camps after bringing their cases, suggesting a "communal attitude that seeks to blame, indeed punish, victims." And he noted that, of the 90 letters he had received praising Mr. Weinberg, not one displayed "any concern or any sympathy or even any acknowledgment for these young victims, which, frankly, I find shameful."
"While the crimes the defendant stands convicted of are bad enough," the judge said before sentencing Mr. Weinberg to 13 months in prison, "what is even more troubling to the court is a communal attitude that seems to impose greater opprobrium on the victims than the perpetrator."
Silenced by Fear
Intimidation is rarely documented, but just two weeks ago, a Hasidic woman from Kiryas Joel, N.Y., in Orange County, filed a startling statement in a criminal court, detailing the pressure she faced after telling the police that a Hasidic man had molested her son.
"I feel 100 percent threatened and very scared," she said in her statement. "I feel intimidated and worried about what the consequences are going to be. But I have to protect my son and do what is right."
Last year, her son, then 14, told the police that he had been offered $20 by a stranger to help move some boxes, but instead, the man brought him to a motel in Woodbury, removed the boy's pants and masturbated him.
The police, aided by the motel's security camera, identified the man as Joseph Gelbman, then 52, of Kiamesha Lake, a cook who worked at a boys' school run by the Vizhnitz Hasidic sect. He was arrested, and the intimidation ensued. Rabbi Israel Hager, a powerful Vizhnitz rabbi in Monsey, N.Y., began calling the mother, asking her to cease her cooperation with the criminal case and, instead, to bring the matter to a rabbinical court under his jurisdiction, according to the mother's statement to the court. Rabbi Hager did not return repeated calls seeking comment.
"I said: 'Why? He might do this again to other children,' " the mother said in the statement. The mother, who asked that The New York Times not use her name to avoid identifying her son, told the police that the rabbi asked, "What will you gain from this if he goes to jail?" and said that, in a later call, he offered her $20,000 to pay for therapy for her son if the charges were dropped.
On April 24, three days before the case was set for trial, the boy was expelled from his school. When the mother protested, she said, the principal threatened to report her for child abuse.
Prosecutors, against the wishes of the boy's parents, settled the case on April 27. Mr. Gelbman was given three years' probation after pleading guilty to endangering the welfare of a child.
Mr. Jungreis, the Williamsburg father, had a similar experience. He first suspected that his son was being molested after he came home with blood in his underwear at age 12, and later was caught touching another child on the bus. But, Mr. Jungreis said, the school principal warned him to stay silent. Two years later, the boy revealed that he had been molested for years by a man he saw at a mikvah, a ritual bath that observant Jews visit for purification.
Mr. Jungreis, knowing the prohibition on calling secular authorities, asked several rabbis to help him report the abuse, but, he said, they told him they did not want to get involved. Ultimately, he found a rabbi who told him to take his son to a psychologist, who would be obligated to notify law enforcement. "That way you are not the moser," he said the rabbi told him, using the Hebrew word for informer. The police arrested Meir Dascalowitz, then 27, who is now awaiting trial.
Prosecution of intimidation is rare. Victims and their supporters say that is because rabbinical authorities are politically powerful; prosecutors say it is because there is rarely enough evidence to build a criminal case. "The intimidation often works, at least in the short run," said Laura Pierro, the head of the special victims unit at the Ocean County prosecutor's office in New Jersey.
In 2010, Ms. Pierro's agency indicted Shaul Luban for witness tampering: he had sent a threatening text message to multiple recipients, urging the Orthodox Jewish community of Lakewood, N.J., to pressure the family of an 11-year-old abuse victim not to cooperate with prosecutors. In exchange for having his record cleared, Mr. Luban agreed to spend about a year in a program for first-time offenders.
Mr. Luban and others "wanted the phone to ring off the hook to withdraw the complaint from our office," the Ocean County prosecutor, Marlene Lynch Ford, said.
Threats to Advocates
The small cadre of ultra-Orthodox Jews who have tried to call attention to the community's lack of support for sexual abuse victims have often been targeted with the same forms of intimidation as the victims themselves.
Rabbi Nuchem Rosenberg of Williamsburg, for example, has been shunned by communal authorities because he maintains a telephone number that features his impassioned lectures in Yiddish, Hebrew and English imploring victims to call 911 and accusing rabbis of silencing cases. He also shows up at court hearings and provides victims' families with advice. His call-in line gets nearly 3,000 listeners a day.
In 2008, fliers were posted around Williamsburg denouncing him. One depicted a coiled snake, with Mr. Rosenberg's face superimposed on its head. "Nuchem Snake Rosenberg: Leave Tainted One!" it said in Hebrew. The local Satmar Hasidic authorities banned him from their synagogues, and a wider group of 32 prominent ultra-Orthodox rabbis and religious judges signed an order, published in a community newspaper, formally ostracizing him.
"The public must beware, and stay away from him, and push him out of our camp, not speak to him, and even more, not to honor him or support him, and not allow him to set foot in any synagogue until he returns from his evil ways," the order said in Hebrew.
"They had small children coming to my house and spitting on me and on my children and wife," Rabbi Rosenberg, 61, said in an interview.
Rabbi Tzvi Gluck, 31, of Queens, the son of a prominent rabbi and an informal liaison to secular law enforcement, began helping victims after he met troubled teenagers at Our Place, a help center in Brooklyn, and realized that sexual abuse was often the root of their problems. It was when he began helping the teenagers report cases to the police that he also received threats.
In February, for example, he received a call asking him to urge an abuse victim to abandon a case. "A guy called me up and said: 'Listen, I want you to know that people on the street are talking about what they can do to hurt you financially. And maybe speak to your children's schools, to get your kids thrown out of school.' "
Rabbi Gluck said he had helped at least a dozen ultra-Orthodox abuse victims bring cases to the Brooklyn district attorney in recent years, and each time, he said, the victim came under heavy pressure to back down. In a case late last year that did not get to the police, a 30-year-old molested a 14-year-old boy in a Jewish ritual bath in Brooklyn, and a rabbi "made the boy apologize to the molester for seducing him," he said.
"If a guy in our community gets diagnosed with cancer, the whole community will come running to help them," he said. "But if someone comes out and says they were a victim of abuse, as a whole, the community looks at them and says, 'Go jump in a lake.' "
Traces of Change
Awareness of child sexual abuse is increasing in the ultra-Orthodox community. Since 2008, hundreds of adult abuse survivors have told their stories, mostly anonymously, on blogs and radio call-in shows, and to victims' advocates. Rabbi-vetted books like "Let's Stay Safe," aimed at teaching children what to do if they are inappropriately touched, are selling well.
The response by communal authorities, however, has been uneven.
In March, for example, Satmar Hasidic authorities in Williamsburg took what advocates said was an unprecedented step: They posted a Yiddish sign in synagogues warning adults and children to stay away from a community member who they said was molesting young men. But the sign did not urge victims to call the police: "With great pain we must, according to the request of the brilliant rabbis (may they live long and good lives), inform you that the young man," who was named, "is, unfortunately, an injurious person and he is a great danger to our community."
In Crown Heights, where the Chabad-Lubavitch Hasidic movement has its headquarters, there has been more significant change. In July 2011, a religious court declared that the traditional prohibition against mesirah did not apply in cases with evidence of abuse. "One is forbidden to remain silent in such situations," said the ruling, signed by two of the court's three judges.
Since then, five molesting cases have been brought from the neighborhood — "as many sexual abuse-related arrests and reports as there had been in the past 20 years," said Eliyahu Federman, a lawyer who helps victims in Crown Heights, citing public information.
Mordechai Feinstein, 19, helped prompt the ruling by telling the Crown Heights religious court that he had been touched inappropriately at age 15 by Rabbi Moshe F. Keller, a Lubavitcher who ran a foundation for at-risk youth and whom Mr. Feinstein had considered his spiritual mentor.
Last week, Rabbi Keller was sentenced in Criminal Court to three years' probation for endangering the welfare of a child. And Mr. Feinstein, who is no longer religious, is starting a campaign to encourage more abuse victims to come forward. He is working with two prominent civil rights attorneys, Norman Siegel and Herbert Teitelbaum, who are asking lawyers to provide free assistance to abuse victims frustrated by their dealings with prosecutors.
"The community is a garden; there are a lot of beautiful things about it," Mr. Feinstein said. "We just have to help them weed out the garden and take out the things that don't belong there."
I personally find that cases of molestation, harassment or inappropriate touching or speech is seen as 'minor' and not that big of a deal by the masses of culturally rooted Muslim communities.I beg to differ as it can cause a lot of deep rooted physical and mental complexities in ones life.
To solve the matter in house we need sincere and educated leaders, and sadly in these times, we often find the leaders themselves with a background of committing such crimes, thus giving political favour to their fellows.
In my opinion, education,public awareness and openness about this subject within the community is one effective method of prevention. I however would take it straight to the authorities.
they castigate them in russia, child molesters, a new law.
A women came to the uncle of salahudeen- the army general, claiming rape from one of the soldiers, he asked and the soldier pleaded guilty, he choped off his head, the godly retribution for rape.
child molesters are the scum of the scum of hell, they shall abide therein without break, in hell forever.
Honestly, experience has taught me that it does not take a religious label to make all those things possible, paedophiles walk amongst the general population because there is a grand denial that it is so. Mothers force their daughters to apologise to their step-fathers, families shun victims who speak out, muslim, jew, christian, atheist. The human mind is sadly often shaped & restricted by the same ideas, fears & speaking out often, usually, costs the victim far more than it ever costs the perpetrator.
I used to think it was a blame the victim mentality, now, I just think that people don't really want to know. Facing up to the fact that someone you love is an abuser is more difficult to deal with than acknowledging that truth. Truth means change & most people don't want change at any cost.
So the victims can often be challenged & punished, the perpetrators go unpunished & unchallenged & the whole sorry cycle goes on…
The times will come when right will be perceived as wrong, & wrong will be perceived as right…

DALLAS - Dallas police are searching for a third suspect in the robbery of a convenience store on North Jim Miller Road near Samuell Boulevard.
Officers arrested Carl Stovall and Jenny Bonham. They led police on an hour-long chase that ended in several crashes Thursday night in Uptown Dallas.
Authorities were first alerted to a robbery in progress at about 7:30 p.m. Police said when officers arrived to the store, they spotted two male suspects getting into a red Pontiac and a female suspect getting inside another vehicle.
Both vehicles fled the scene, with the Pontiac getting away from police visibility. Police continued their pursuit of the female driver, who eventually was able to meet back up with the Pontiac, in which she stopped her car and hopped inside, police said.
The driver of the Pontiac began ramming vehicles when it became stuck in traffic, eventually becoming immobile at McKinney and Lemmon avenues in Uptown. The female and male inside the car were taken into custody. A third suspect originally seen at the convenience store was not inside the car and police continue their search.
Police said the two arrested face charges of aggravated robbery and evading police.

Best burgers and tater tots/fries around. I go with the lettuce wrap burger option and it is AWESOME! Thank you Paul for taking great care of us celiac's at Whalburger's and Alma Nove's :)
Eaten there 3 times and waitstaff seems well educated, still nerve racking eating at a fast food type of set-up. Sister did not feel well after eating there on a separate occasion.
Awesome bun. Looks as amazing as it tastes. No longer too there fell sorry for me when I get my order.
Ok burgers, waitress was kind of helpful. Better gf burgers up the street at wild Willys. fries were soggy.
They have gluten free bread and buns, and all sandwiches can be made gluten free. Wait staff is very friendly and knowledgable about gluten free issues. Plus, they have gluten free French fries -- a nice treat!!
Burger in a lettuce wrap ... Yum!!
Burgers extremely tasty and fries delicious. GF bun larger than the "normal" ones. Staff very knowledgeable. Love it! Highly recommend.
Gf rolls for burgers, just depends in what type of burger you get. All fries expect the onions are gf
Delicious! The GF buns are even toasted! I tried the chicken sandwich, it was really good and reminded me of my pre-GF days. They have a dedicated GF fryer so all the sides except the onion rings are GF. Looking forward to my next visit to try more things!
Loved GF buns (I think they were Udi's?) and Udi's cookies! Staff were helpful. Lots of options, including tater tots.
Awesome burgers. GF buns, burgers, fries, tater tots, hot dogs, hot dog rolls. Seem knowledgeable about gluten.

Backing Up Pictures Online
For many home users, their family and ancestral pictures are the most precious data they have on their computer. If anything took away those photos – a corrupted hard drive, a natural disaster, a glass of water spilled on the keyboard – they'd be devastated.
That's why you should consider online backup is so important for photos. Sites that let you share photos – Facebook, flickr, photobucket – have been around for a while. While Facebook lets you upload your pictures for free, just as you upload your posts, digital-photo experts say the quality of the pictures isn't top-grade because Facebook usually compresses them to take up less room on their servers. So if you lose your pictures on your hard drive and download them from Facebook, you might find that those images don't match the quality of your originals. With other photo-sharing sites, like flickr and photobucket, the quality of your pictures will be better, but those sites allow only about 200 photos for free. After that, the pricing is about $25 a year, though it's best to check the site for up-to-the-minute pricing.
If you're an amateur photographer and take thousands of photos, you might also consider one of the digital backup services like Mozy and Carbonite. First, you'll have to figure out if that's enough for all your photos. The amount of space a photo takes up depends on its resolution, so bigger pictures will need more room. Most services offer 5G of free storage, but beyond that, you'll need to pay. In any case, it's probably better to overestimate the space you'll need.

When the mythical beast of the Goromotaro was awakened, we've seen very few bigs able to top the 20/20 plateau. It's what hindsight is! Then Anthony Davis goes out and drops a 40-burger topped with multi-cat sauce. "Welcome to King Burger where you can have it your way but don't get crazy!" Brow went too crazy! 40/21/3/1/3. Sassy. Almost a rainbow, definitely a Goromotaro, and certainly spiking the Brow value into probably the 3rd pick next year. I said early on in the year I'd go top-5, but he's locked in the three hole now. You can set it and forget it. Plus he's a redonk 29 for his last 29 at the stripe. Just so valuable that one of the big Boards-N-Blocks can actually hit free throws. So in drafts next year, you can pass on Andre Drummond and DeAndre Jordan later on. Plus you won't be looking at your roster and taunting it like Katt Williams when pulled over by Shaq. "No – could you hit a free throw!" Here's what else I saw over the weekend:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Nikola Pekovic
No, you're not accidentally on baseball and we're not reviewing Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle's little HBO romp. Wait, why does LeBron James get an asterisk then?! I think the mask is helping him. It's like the Jim Carrey movie. Without it he's a nothing out there – - dammit, metaphors and parallels just aren't working today! Unless the improbable scenario in which you pounded em hard at happy hour, passed out before tipoffs last night, stumbled to your computer when you awoke this morning, and Razzball Basketball is your first NBA news choice, then you probably saw what BronBron did last night. I for one fully endorse the aforementioned scenario, see you at happy hour after work! LeBron went bob-bonkers on the bob-Bobcats for 61 points shooting 22-33, 8-10 from deep, and 9-12 from the stripe. Chipped in 7 boards and 5 dimes on top of it. The gap Kevin Durant had over King James is slowly deteriorating as MaskBron is taking over Gotham City. Now, it did help that there was no Dwyane Wade (not that it would've made that much of a difference), but KD is still your numero uno. Twin towers! I bet 50% of fantasy H2H title matchups will pit LeBron vs. KD. Fantasy basketball is too top heavy followed by a bunch of bastard children. It's turning into Shawn Kemp! Zing! Here's what else I saw last night in NBA action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Probably because he's, well, Elton Brand, I haven't paid much attention to him. It's like telling me, "Hey JB, Robert Parrish is on the wire, what'da think?!" Brand is getting tons of run lately with Gustavo Ayon and Pero Antic still hurt decimating the Hawks 5s (and Paul Millsap out as well), to the tune of 40+ minutes the past two games and 30+ in 4 of 5. And grandpa Elton topped off his big run with a rainbow line last night, 7/13/3/2/2 in 42 minutes. That's like an Andrew Bogut line! Had a comment last night asking if Brand is a flash in the pan. More like flash in the bedpan! Yeah, I don't see any sustainability here with none of the aforementioned hurt guys really out that long. But hey, maybe a one-game stream? The Hawks are going at Boston tonight who lack any sort of consistency up front as well and Brand could get ya another multi-cat gem. Here's what else I saw last night in fantasy hoops:Please, blog, may I have some more?
I can't for the life of me remember why we went to Walmart on a Sunday. It was probably for something pretty important but me and JB can get sidetracked pretty easily. Anyway, I don't want to be there any longer than necessary so when we go I insist we shop by the method we have fondly been calling The Heely Derby. It's just like the 80′s style Roller Derby, daisy dukes and all, only with Heelys instead of roller skates so we are slightly less conspicuous. I remember it was early in the race, we were gaining speed still, weaving around the blockers when out of nowhere I was caught with a forearm shiver that sent me flying. When I was able to finally free myself from the shirt rack and locate my adversary I was astounded by what I saw. She couldn't have been more than 8 years old, decked out in Hello Kitty paraphernalia and still locked in her Kung Fu like pose. Even in my shock I could tell something was wrong. Her kitty doll which no doubt was her most prized possession had been knocked to the ground. Still locked in her pose she slowly turned her head toward me and calmly demanded, "Say you're sorry".Please, blog, may I have some more?
Gotta hand it to that Daryl Morey character.
Somehow, someway, the Houston Rockets' GM has made it possible to like Dwight Howard again, simply by bringing him to the Houston Rockets.
Dwight was insufferable with the Magic, always whining about calls with blabber coming out of that head that was always too small for his hulking frame. And then, of course, he was even worse with the Lakers, thinking he could just come in and take the throne from Kobe Bryant.
In Houston, there wasn't gonna be any of that disrespectin' going on. The Rockets had Dwight working with The Dream. Kevin Freaking McHale was the coach. And Kobe might be Kobe, but James Harden's beard is a whole other can of worms. Would you mess with that beard?Please, blog, may I have some more?
The Lakers and dear ol' coach Doh-toni are just an absolute mess right now. And just to make things even more interesting, there are injuries, mystery, intrigue, vets returning, and a scheme to divert water reservoir rights. With Pau Gasol out for two weeks with a bum groin and a good chance out of L.A. before the trade deadline, this whole team is turning into the end of Chinatown. "Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown!" And you really can forget pretty much everyone on this team right now, as three vets returned, two guys got hurt, and it's turning into a bigger Hollywood disaster than The Adventures of Pluto Nash. I bet Norbit could play PF for the purple and gold! Since going through everything that happened for the crumbling Lakers would be an 800-word paragraph, let's hop out of the open and machine gun through em, plus what else happened last night in the world of fantasy hoops:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Whoa, domino.
We've seen it time and again in this year of NBA action, which has looked more like an episode of "E.R." wrapped inside a scene from "Grey's Anatomy" inside Nurse Jackie's scrubs than it has the FAN-tastic exhibition of athletic excellence constructed by now-ex-commish David Stern.
The injury domino effect has wreaked havoc everywhere in real life, wrecking players' seasons, sending some teams into tank mode while helping other teams tank.
In the fantasy world, the impact of these boo-boos has been equally killer for some owners and the big ones don't even need to be listed. You all know 'em.Please, blog, may I have some more?
I could tell what JB was thinking just from the look in his eyes, or what I could see of them, but he had to verbalize it, "Come on I really don't want to do this." I'm sure he didn't but a lost bet has consequences. It was time to go play some 2-on-2 tournament basketball and he looked ready. He was carrying his basketball in one hand, his sandals in the other, and sporting a bright orange and pink spandex leotard, which can you believe has to be special ordered. I thought the big and tall store would have a couple to choose from but they don't. Anyway where was I, oh yeah, and a matching blindfold with a couple tiny holes poked out. For safety. At this point there was no escaping our fate, JB knew that what he wanted was no longer relevant. When we finally arrived we were ready to ball. I knew we needed to make an impression so in a show of intimidation I threw my shirt off revealing my shiny black Tom Selleck-esque body fur, pulled my socks up high and tight, and mean mugged those fools as hard as I could.Please, blog, may I have some more?
Deron Williams could sell Citizen Eco-Drive watches too! "Be precise! Be powerful! And whatever you do, don't in-bounds the ball on a terrible underthrown pass when you're up a point with seconds to go!" Just an awful way for the Nets to drop a game last night, as one of my favorite underrated guys right now Patrick Patterson stole Deron's pass and buried a game-winner. If only that was a fantasy category! While you may have been suckered in thinking I'm gonna talk about Deron, Pit Pat is who I want to lead with, who ended with a 15/3/1/2/0 night, punctuated by that steal and dos points on that last play. In 22 minutes he shot 6-11, hit a three, and is playing pretty well in limited time. In only 23:12 a game thus far in 2014, 11/5.6/1.6/0.8/0.6 with a trey a night. Dem fightin' numbers! Obviously was on the court in the critical juncture last night, and pulled a Richard Sherman defensive play. Plus he played after breaking his nose Saturday! Dem fightin' numbers! Only owned in 12% of Yahoo leagues, Pit Pat's strong play should have him on the brink of high 20 minutes a game. Not like he's playing for the Bucks or anything! Sure he's behind Amir Johnson, but Amir was quiet last night in 30 minutes (8/6/1/0/1) and Tyler Hansbrough is still out with a psycho ankle. If you step up in an opportunity, rewards shall be reaped! Just don't typo that last word without the first "e". Like I almost did! Hashtag edetting. Here's what else I saw last night in NBA action:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Merry Christmas Razzball Nation! I hope everyone is looking forward to a great holiday. What have you asked for for Christmas? A ridiculous stroke of luck to get you a Fantasy Football championship tonight? A Christmas Day where three of your guys have triple doubles? Mine is hoping that no more injuries roll through the NBA, at least with questionable return dates. Hey, at least Brook Lopez has a certain return date. October 2014. Huge loss (I was going to say break, but um, yea) for fantasy owners with a broken foot. Here's what I said in my ranks with him at 50, lower than most other places: "Love his game, had him top-20 in May. Foot injury and big trade limits #s." That's me quoting me! Ok, ok, so I get a ton wrong and you can't project injuries (which I didn't really, gotta love vagueness!), but I avoided Lopez everywhere so I am not suffering a stocking full of coal like BroLo owners. BroLo's stocking is actually full of a swollen foot, but you get the idea. Andray Blatche becomes a must-own with the boost in minutes, and was already at double-digits and 19:40 plus of playing time in 15 of 17 games before Friday night's dud when BroLo got hurt. I see him grabbing 7 to 8 boards with decent %s – along with his scoring – for a bottom end guy on rosters with a tad of upside. Here's what else/who else got hurt over the weekend:Please, blog, may I have some more?

Cross Country To Open Season At Cardinal Relays
Aug. 30, 2012
NACOGDOCHES, Texas - The Stephen F. Austin cross country teams will kick off their season on Friday when they travel to Beaumont for the Cardinal Relays.
The event will include just three Southland Conference teams - SFA, Sam Houston State and Lamar - at Beaumont's Claiborne Park, with teams breaking off into pairs for two relays.
"This is a great way for us to kick off the season," cross country coach Cody Clark said. "Both teams have been training extremely well and are at a good spot at this point. With such a small amount of teams and in this format it will be basically another training day, but we still expect to see everyone compete and compete well."
The races will begin at 6:00 p.m. at Claiborne Park. The competitors will be paired up in teams and will trade out laps with the women running two, two-mile circuits each and the men running three loops apiece.
The Ladyjacks will have nearly everyone back from its squad a year ago, headlined by reigning Southland Conference champion Lauren Smith. Senior Randi Plentl is also back after finishing third in the league individually a year ago, as is sophomore Laurie Byrd who finished up on a strong note last season. In all the Ladyjacks have six returners from last year's competition, in addition to three newcomers.
On the guy's side, Clark has assembled a roster of more than 13 runners, including last season's top finishers Adam Saloom and Hunter Russell. The Lumberjacks will also welcome back senior Xavier Rodriguez, who utilized his redshirt season in 2011.
"Hopefully everyone goes out and runs smart and well and betters themselves for two weeks from now when we head to the Rice Invitational," Clark said.
The men and women take part in the Rice Invitational on Sept. 14 in Houston before splitting squads on Sept. 28, sending one to Austin for the Grass Routes Grand Prix and one to Stillwater, Okla., for the OSU Cowboy Jamboree.

As a Boston kid living in NYC, I probably care more about this game than most here, but given that it's all of your solemn duties as Americans to watch, I thought I should probably throw up a diary on the subject. Plus, open threads are always fun. Feel free to toss out predictions, talk trash, and vent on anything football-related (or not). I'll have to check with the higher-ups, but we might even be able to throw some free gear the way of the poster with the closest guesstimate of the final score.
By way of a Warriors tie-in, check out NateRob's hilarious interview on the subject if you haven't (thank to disguy for the original fanpost).
Final Warriors tally: NY Giants 3 (Jenkins, Curry, Tyler), Tom Brady 2 (Dorell, Udoh), Dallas Cowboys 1 (Dorell).
Personally ... I'm worried about the Giants' pass rush, Cruz/Nicks/Manningham running roughshod, and Rob Gronkowski's ankle. If I had to bet my own money, I'd probably go with the Giants in a close one -- let's say 34-31. Here's hoping pretty fervently that I'm wrong.

Word on the Street: The end of Facebook?
BROOKLYN - Facebook could be obsolete in a few years' time, according to a group of researchers at Princeton University.
Researchers compared the growth curve of epidemics to those of online social networks, concluding that Facebook will pretty much die out by 2017. The social network celebrates its tenth birthday on Feb. 4.
Some Brooklyn residents are doubtful Facebook will fade away, since the social network is so interconnected with other websites and many people rely on it to see what's going on in the world.

Watching the 2014 Super Bowl commercials, one thing is clear: These companies are shooting for virality. Just being seen by millions of TV viewers isn't enough anymore. For marketers to be happy with their extremely expensive Super Bowl commercials, they have to be shared, liked, clicked, tweeted ... More >>
New Yorkers really, really do not like Joe Buck. In a spoof Super Bowl commercial released Thursday, Buck gets abuse (and a pizza!) hurled at him from New Yorkers who make it clear they hate his guts.
Super Bowl XLVIII hasn't even started, but the Internet is ready to declare a winner in the contest for best commercial.

There are signs of progress in opening a new, expanded Menards store in Davenport. Crews are out clearing trees and getting the 65th St. site ready for construction.
The Wisconsin-based home improvement retailer has been trying to build a bigger store in Davenport since 2005, but has run into delays, many which had to do with the current store on 53rd St.
Now, company officials plan to meet with city leaders at a later date to discuss the idea of turning the existing store into a self-storage facility. Company spokesman Jeff Abbot says the property is still for sale, but this gives them an option that would allow them to proceed with a new building. Abbot says they have converted two other former stores into self-storage facilities, one in Eau Claire and the other in Sheboygan.
"We are considering doing the same in Davenport, but ideally we prefer to sell the building," he added.
He says the current 53rd location will remain open until the new store is completed.
"We're getting started on a new store in Davenport that we hope to open in 2014," Abbot said.

What is an internship?
According to the National Society for Internships and Experiential Education, an internship is "any type of carefully monitored work or service experience in which an individual has intentional learning goals and reflects actively on what he or she is learning throughout the experience."
The important thing to remember about an internship is that it is more than a short-term job or volunteer work. The student must enter the internship with specific learning goals in mind. Therefore it is very important for students to discuss their internship objectives with their major professors when planning internships and to select a cooperating faculty sponsor who can best help them achieve their objectives.
Internships provide you with opportunities to:
- Explore and confirm career choices
- Gain practical experience to give you a competitive edge in the job market
- Ease the transition from school to workplace
- Gain exposure to current technology and knowledge in the field
- Develop professional contacts
- Earn and develop job search skills
Getting Started with an Internship
In addition to visiting the links on this page, we advise you to visit the office of career services to explore ideas and opportunities for internships. The office can provide to you great information on finding an internship that is right for you.

"House of representatives" against raising minimum wage
11:01, — Society
MPs think a sum of $170 is enough for a family of four.
The commission on labour and social issues of the "house of representatives" answered the residents of Baranavichy, who asked to propose a bill raising the minimum wage. Commission head Uladzimir Vasilenka wrote in a letter that "the size of the current minimum wage is optimal for the current economic situation. It provides a high level of employment in the labour market and, through the indexation mechanism, partially covers the losses of low-paid workers caused by the inflation rate."
The MP said the minimum wage since January 1, 2014, was 1,660,000 rubles, or 100,04% of the minimum consumer budget for a family of four at the beginning of 2013, Radio Svaboda reports.
Uladzimir Vasilenka says: "The proposal on increasing salaries cannot be supported."
A petition signed by more than 140 residents of Baranavichy was sent to the parliament by activist Ryhor Hryk. The people asked to initiate a law to set the minimum wage at 3 million rubles and the minimum pension at 2.5 million rubles with the indexation according to the growth of prices for goods and services."
Baranavichy residents wrote in the petition that "the current level of the minimum wage doesn't correspond the real living standards. As a result, employees' salaries remain frozen while prices are constantly growing."

HoopsHype Trey Johnson rumors
Unfortunately for the Mississippi native and high school teammate of the Cleveland Cavalier's Mo Williams, Johnson has yet to translate his D-League success into a solid opportunity at the next level. He's enjoyed short stints, however, as he's had a few cups of coffee in the NBA via training camp invites from the New Orleans Hornets in 2007, the Phoenix Suns in 2008 and the Los Angeles Lakers this past October along with a couple of 10-day contracts from the Cavaliers during the 2008-09 season. His phone could soon be ringing again, though, perhaps as soon as Wednesday when 10-day contracts become available for the first time this season. According to one NBA scout speaking to FanHouse earlier this week, Johnson's could be a hot commodity for NBA teams looking for a scoring boost, calling him a "pure scorer with the ability to play a little ... point guard, too." "With what Reggie Williams did last year," the scout noted, "it wouldn't surprise me to see someone give him a chance to go out and just put up points." FanHouse.com
Lakers rookie small forward Devin Ebanks had four points in 22 minutes in his NBA Development League debut with the Bakersfield Jam on Tuesday night. Lakers general manager Mitch Kupchak was on hand to watch, according to KERO-TV. The player who might've caught Kupchak's eye more was Lakers training-camp invitee Trey Johnson, who scored 27 points in the Jam's victory. With the trade of Sasha Vujacic, the Lakers could be in position to need a guard such as Johnson if they were to suffer an injury. Orange County Register
The Lakers released training camp invitees Trey Johnson and Drew Naymick on Thursday, putting the team's roster at 14. The Lakers entered the preseason with four training camp invitees but released Anthony Roberson and Russell Hicks just before the team's European trip. Los Angeles Times
With training camp starting this Saturday, the Lakers have invited another roster hopeful in 6'5" guard Trey Johnson. Examiner
The Los Angeles Lakers have signed former NBA Development League guards Trey Johnson and Anthony Roberson for their training camp roster which opens next week according to multiple sources. The Lakers also signed center Russell Hicks to a training camp contract earlier this month. Ridiculous Upside

Today's weather forecast: A Brief Respite
American horse racing's richest event—the $5 million Breeders' Cup Classic—returns to Santa Anita on November 2 and 3. If there's a home turf advantage, Game On Dude, scheduled to run in the weekend's signature race, has it in spades. While most of the entrants schlep in from points far east, Game On Dude would stroll out of his stall within the storied Bob Baffert training operation and look up to see the familiar San Gabriel Mountains. Nor has the bay gelding lost on this track, including last year's bumpy victory in the big-money Santa Anita Handicap, when he slammed into the horse next to him, igniting a flurry of boos. While an inquiry exonerated his horse, Baffert was shaken by the vitriol, which he says prompted Dude part-owner Joe Torre to pipe up, "You think this is booing? I've been booed by the best of them." The former Dodger and Yankee manager, who's been dabbling in racehorse ownership since 2003, says he finds the four-legged athletes as exciting as the two-legged ones, and he goes to as many of Dude's races as he can. Torre should stand out even in a Cup crowd laced with local celebrities. "He should run for mayor of New York," says Baffert. "He'd win."

If you think it takes a lifetime of sun exposure to develop skin cancer, you might be surprised how short that lifetime can be. Believe me, I even saw it on my team when I was coaching the Lady Raiders.
Even in college kids, we are seeing melanoma, a dangerous type of skin cancer that will kill more than 7000 people this year. So how do you know who will develop skin cancer? Well, sun exposure is not good for anybody, but it seems the lighter the complexion, the greater the risk.
Dr. Kelly Bennett, TTUHSC Department on Family Medicine., says she worries when she sees someone with fair skin and blonde or red hair with freckles and green eyes she says that group is born with a high risk of developing skin cancer. But she says a lot of different skin types are increasing the risk today by exposing skin that has never been exposed to sunlight.
"When kids go to tanning salons, they tend to do it in the nude and so not only are we seeing kids tan more but we're seeing them tan in places that God didn't mean for them to tan. So that increases the risk of getting skin cancer in places you wouldn't necessarily be thinking of looking at," said Dr. Bennett.
She says remember your ABC's when checking your skin for cancer. A is for asymmetry, one side of a mole should match the other side. B is for border, moles should have nice smooth edges. If a border is irregular, that sends up a red flag. C is for color, be suspicious if a mole is intensely back or has a bluish tint or if it is multi-colored. D is for diameter, any mole that is bigger than the size of a pea is too big and puts you at risk of melanoma.
Dr. Bennett says it is very difficult to tell a 20-year-old that she has skin cancer and I understand because I remember how difficult it was to watch Cisti Greenwalt, one of my players, go through chemotherapy for her skin cancer. Cisti has since recovered and today she protects her skin like we all should.

Everytime I have visted even mid week it has been busy and has a great reputation amongst the locals. I shall be visiting again next month and I live in Northamptonshire!

There seems to be a boat load of interest for Monta Ellis around the league, because he is a great scoring threat who can get his shot off beyond the arc, or utilizing his quick first step, get a layup at the rim. His defense is nothing to write home about, but his offensive abilities make up for that. Doesn't that sound like another player that we know very well?
I could have rewritten that entire paragraph, but replace Monta Ellis with Marcus Thornton, and no one would have disagreed (except for that part about a "boat load of interest.") I didn't understand why there seemed to so much buzz around Monta Ellis, when it also seems like it would be nearly impossible to trade Marcus Thornton. So I grabbed my Sherlock Holmes hat and pipe (it's not weed I swear, but I am feeling a bit hungry now......) and did some investigating.
First off, I don't know how to do all them fancy graphs and tables, so what you are about to see will be displeasing to your eyes. (Please don't harm your firstborns because of me.)
Here are their comparative stats from this past season (Taken from John Hollinger's ESPN stats):
PT/40 R/40 A/40 TS% AST ratio TO ratio USG PER
Marcus Thornton:
21.2 4.6 2.1 55.2 9.2 6.9 21.1 16.32
Monta Ellis:
20.5 4.1 6.4 49.3 21.1 10.8 25.5 16.3
I don't know about you , but I would say that other than the assisting numbers, those two players are nearly identical. Throw in MT's superior 3pt shooting (career 36.5% vs 31.8%) and free throw percentage (83.2 vs 77.3), and there is not much separating these two players. Don't get me wrong, having high assist numbers is great and very important to have. But at the off guard position, is it that important? Wull, probably, but not important enough that it would make it impossible to trade Thornton.
Thornton would likely be able to be had at a smaller contract than Ellis, and would also be willing to accept a smaller role than Ellis. Ellis thinks way to high of himself, and believes that he should be the star of a team. Thornton on the other hand would be willing to accept a 6th man award, as long as he gets his fair share of minutes. Think of a JR Smith type of role.
I am NOT trying to say that Thornton and Ellis are equal players. If I could have one of the two on identical contracts, I would choose Ellis everyday of the week (except Tuesday, I don't like Tuesdays.) But, what I am trying to say is that I don't think Marcus Thornton is impossible to trade, and we could likely even get decent value in return for him. If I were Pete D, any time I saw a team connected to Monta Ellis, I would instantly call them up and try to sweet talk them into a deal for Marcus Thornton. (I hear he gives amazing back rubs.)
