A regular England Under-21 international, Danny enjoyed a successful loan spell at Sunderland in 2012-13, where he made 29 appearances in all competition including 25 starts in the Premier League. He was named Sunderland's Young Player of the Season.
Signed from Leeds in July, 2007, Danny had a spell at Watford before making his Spurs debut in the League Cup win at his home-town team Doncaster in August, 2009.
Danny played 17 times on loan in the Championship for Bristol City in 2010-11, before starting our final four fixtures in the Premier League.
He will always be remembered for his full debut later that season. Selected for a crucial derby against Arsenal in April, 2010, he delivered with one of the all-time great derby goals, a full volley from fully 35 yards that flew home and saw us on the way to a 2-1 victory over the Gunners and eventually fourth place in the Premier League and Champions League qualification.
Danny featured 11 times in the Premier League for us in 2011-12 - starting three matches - and 20 times in all competitions.
He then took his place in Team GB for the Olympic Games in the summer alongside Steven Caulker.

Annual Peace Walk and Fair sparks conversations of change
McMinnville citizens take part in a peace walk Sept. 23. The event took place in the historic downtown district.
Kate Straube/Photo editor
The Interfaith Advocates for Peace with Justice held its eighth annual Peace Walk and Fair at McMinnville Cooperative Ministries on Sept. 24.
People brought signs advocating for peace and walked as a group up and down Baker and Adams streets. Drivers honked and waved as the peace walkers made their way around downtown McMinnville.
Afterward, keynote speaker Paul Barker, Afghanistan Country Director of Save the Children International, talked about the current conditions in Afghanistan.
He shared his opinion on a variety of topics including challenges in the path to peace, the war on terror, transitioning U.S. forces out of Afghanistan and the peaceful people of Iran.
"Afghans need to use their forces to protect themselves. We can aid them, of course, but it needs to be done on their own," Barker said. "Foreign militaries have overstayed their welcome in Afghanistan."
The Peace Fair was held after the speaker, and people were invited to talk to the various organizations about their purposes.
Oregonians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty, George Fox Center for Peace and Justice, Amnesty International, Unidos Bridging Community, Hands and Words Project and the Yamhill Valley Peacemakers (YVP) were among the groups represented at the fair.
"Peace is more than the absence of war. Peace is people being free enough and safe enough to help each other," said Ellie Gunn, one of the leaders of YVP. Gunn previously worked in the library at Linfield. She has been doing peace work for more than 45 years.
"Peace needs to happen for everyone in this world to live together," Gunn said. "Think globally, act locally. What we can do is to start in McMinnville."
Linfield students are always encouraged to participate in peaceful organizations and events in the community.

Brooklyn Resident Honored for Her Excellence as a Nurse
BRONX, NEW YORK, November 2010 – Calvary Hospital recently honored Elena Filatov, RN, with the Daisy Award. Nurses recognized with this quarterly award must demonstrate excellence through clinical expertise as well as extraordinary, compassionate care. Honorees are also expected to go above and beyond to make a difference, and exemplify a "healing touch" presence with patients and their families. Award recipients are chosen by their nurse administrators, peers, physicians, patients and families.
Elena Filatov, RN, an 8-year veteran of Calvary, is the clinical care coordinator for the Calvary Satellite at Lutheran Medical Center in Brooklyn. Comments on her nomination forms from current patients and staff included: "She is very caring, compassionate, sincere, and knowledgeable." "She treats the patients with dignity; she always helps patients when they need help; she constantly has a smile on her face and never complains."
A native of Saint Petersburg, Russia, Elena obtained her RN degree in 1986. She worked as a nurse in Russia and Israel before moving to the U.S. Elena is a Brooklyn resident and is fluent in Hebrew, Russian, and English.
DAISY (www.daisyfoundation.org) is an acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune System. The foundation was formed in January, 2000, by the family of J. Patrick Barnes who died at age 33 of complications related to Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP). Patrick really liked Cinnabons and at the end of his life and always made sure there was enough of this culinary treat for all the nurses in his unit. As a result, all DAISY honorees are treated to Cinnabons at every presentation. Each hospital also receives a special banner to hang in the recipient's unit as a way to celebrate the DAISY Award honors and the nursing profession. To date, 700 health care facilities (U.S., Canada, Middle East, and Germany, etc.) now give out DAISY awards to honor the excellence on their nursing staff.
The organization's main goals are: 1) to pay tribute to nurses who make such an enormous difference in the lives of people they touch every single day; 2) fund grants for nurses who do research and evidence-based practices in the field of cancer; and 3) to give out the DAISY faculty award to inspiring teachers in nursing school.

I am an agnostic who was born and raised in a very strict Christian fundamentalist environment. God was portrayed as a demanding enforcer who lashes-out and destroys if His demands are not met. People were viewed as evil beings that should not breathe God's air unless he gives them the right to do so. Ever heard the expression, "not fit to tote guts to a bear"? I did, as a child when it was orated from the pulpit during a sermon. The preacher was referring to people in general.
The central religious premise was "fear," fear of God, fear of life, fear of other people, fear of Satan, fear of....one's self. Everything other than going to church and reading the Bible was- or had the potential to be sin. We had no television set in our house for years because TV's were called evil, of the devil, and if you had one in your home, you were in danger of hell fire! The only music approved for listening was performed in- or condoned by the church. Certain hairstyles and makeup were sure to provoke the wrath of God on anyone who wore them. In my mind, God was a capricious being who watched everyone, relentlessly, and pounced at the first shadow of a transgression. I did not hear about love or a loving God until I was an adolescent.
By that time, I had grown weary of the confining environment I had endured as a child; it felt like a boa constrictor around my torso, squeezing the very life from me that it claimed to preserve and save. Instead of feeling liberated, and more importantly, supported and safe, I was full of fear, anxiety, and anger. I became an angry teenager and eventually an angry and confused young man. This anger carried over into my adult life, and I was the cause of misery for those I loved the most. Unfortunately, my pent-up anger led me to places I should never had seen, much less been a part of. I have been violent, and I have received violence. I've heard the wails from the depths of an insane mind and witnessed the violence of the criminally insane. I have been to the brink of suicide more than once in my life. It can be said that I have been to the abyss, where I looked into it, and even placed my head inside it, and lived to tell about it. While I have faced my demons (figuratively speaking) and I am at peace with myself, these events have left me with "baggage" that cannot be unloaded...only lightened, and then to a limited degree. A positive outcome is that I am now a more empathetic and compassionate person than my loved ones or I ever dreamed I could be.
Religion, when studied and researched from a historical and empirical standpoint, just cannot be proven as absolutely true. It was created by men and used by unscrupulous men to control the masses. I do not blame or demean those who choose to believe and practice religion, but most believers are merely following tradition and doing what "so-and-so" told them to do at some point in their lives. Who am I to question their faith if it brings them comfort and gives them a reason to live?
Until October 9, 2010, death was the only thing that still caused a twinge of fear in me. Despite having dismissed the dogma of a literal hell, I was still fearful of the unknown nature of death, and what might or might not be beyond it. What happens when the life force leaves the body? What pain may or may not accompany death? On that fateful day, I had a heart attack.
The evening began as a pleasant one. Dinner out with family, followed by a trip to a local go-kart track with my significant other, her daughter and the daughter's two-year-old son. After the meal, I noticed some discomfort in my chest, but I attributed it to indigestion. I spent the better part of thirty minutes on the go-kart track vigorously racing with a young man who was a skillful driver. As I climbed out of the kart and shook the young man's hand, I noticed the pain in my chest had intensified. Still, I thought it was only indigestion. It was my turn to watch the two-year-old while my girlfriend and her daughter had a turn at the go-karts. Suddenly, a crushing pressure in the center of my chest started to accompany the intensifying pain, and I became unable to focus enough to monitor the child and keep him safe.
All I can recall of the next few minutes are the faces of my girlfriend and her daughter. The daughter told me to lie down before I crumpled to the ground, and as I lay outside on the cool, hard concrete, the pain began to subside and the physical world began to blur and fade away. Now, I have been in accidents, been knocked unconscious, and thought I was going to die, but this was different. I could feel the life force literally draining from my body as I slipped into a surreal state, nor could I feel the cool, hard concrete beneath my body. It was as if I was suspended in space and time. The cares of this world were no longer a factor. I was at peace, a peace that was indescribable. All my former worries and concerns evaporated like fog on a sunny Sunday morning. I did not want to return. Suddenly, a first responder touched my wrist, and I returned to this world.
Since this has happened, I do not fear death. I know it is something all people must face, and it is the end of the turmoil we put ourselves and others through because we want to provide answers to questions without answers, and we want to control our destinies.
What I did not experience were supernatural beings there to meet and greet me. No demons were there to drag me to hell, nor were there any bright lights, singing choirs, or loved ones who have passed on before me. Life was slowly draining from my body as if it was shutting down for a permanent sleep. I believe that once the life force is gone, the body turns to dust. In other words, life as we know it is over...nothing more, nothing less. Our journey ends, and we no longer exist.
The irony is that instead of becoming more apathetic, I now live life as it truly is: a temporary state, a journey in which I am a vagabond just passing through. An afterlife does not factor into my plans or my current state of living. This is extremely liberating and empowering, not from a haughty perspective, but from a humble perspective of realizing this life is all I have. My conclusions about life and death are:
There are no permanent destinations to prepare for, so try to enjoy what you are lucky enough to have and experience while you are here, nor be obsessed with what will happen when you die. Help others along the way by making their journey easier. But most importantly, when you look into the eyes of the homeless, the addict, the insane, the sick and dying, someone who irritates you, realize that at least one of these will one day be you...and smile at yourself.

Why do we like music?
View Single Post
Kenneth Mann
Nov18-06, 12:52 AM
Quote by
Ivan Seeking
Well, what qualities or unique properties can we assign to music?
For one, there is order. Music is comprised of patterns. There is melody,
harmony, rhythm, texture, and color. The form is modeled by the use of repetition and contrast.
Another example of the "order" of music comes in the scale of notes employed. The basic 12-note chromatic scale used in the West has its notes separated by twelfth-root of two (binary logarithmic) intervals. Even more to the point, the diatonic scales (the seven note groupings within the chromatic scale) which define the various keys, are based on an approximation to the "
overtone series
" sequences, in which note frequencies are related as integral multiples of each other. This symmetry seems to, we might say, strike a chord with people.
All the symmetries, the patterns of order within music, the note relationships, the rhythms, the repetitions, etc. seem to be very pleasing to us. During the Twentieth Century, many within the "academe" decided that it was time to broaden the definition of what music is, and loosen the reins of symmetry. (Probably a way of ensuring employment for musicologists.) After nearly a hundred years it still doesn't seem to have caught on with the people at large.

The Sporting News has announced their All-Decade college football team, with Dallas' Terence Newman, a product of Kansas State, making the first-team cut, the only Cowboy to do so.
Newman, of course, was drafted in the first round (fifth overall) by Dallas in 2002, a year for which Newman was rewarded with the Jim Thorpe Award, as the nation's top defensive back, All-American and Big XII Defensive Player of the Year honors. He is also enshrined in the Wildcats' ring of honor in Manhattan.
Former Oklahoma Sooner, former Cowboy and current liability in coverage, Roy Williams joins his former teammate on the list as the only Cowboys, former or current, to have made the cut.
The pair were also named to the CBS Sports All-Decade CFB Team this Summer.
Native-Texan Adrian Peterson made the team as first string running back, along with Felix Jones' former running-mate at Arkansas Darren McFadden.
Tim Tebow was named the college football player of the decade, and his coach, Urban Meyer, was named the coach of the decade.

On Coast to Coast AM, scientist David Sereda provided evidence that our Solar System entered a new field of cosmic energy that set off a chain of events including the vibration of the entire planet, the largest storm ever recorded on Saturn, and an early sunrise in Greenland (related to a wobble of the Earth and magnetic pole movement). The sequence of events began the day after the combined Winter Solstice and total lunar eclipse on December 21, 2010 – exactly two years to the day before the end of the Mayan calendar.
On Dec 22, 2010, one day after the Winter Solstice/total lunar eclipse, earthquake sensors all over the planet all went off at the same time with full signal strength. According to Sereda, this was not an earthquake – the entire planet vibrated.
On Dec 23, 2010 NASA reported that the largest storm ever recorded on Saturn erupted and is still going on today. Saturn is usually a very smooth object to look at. But, the storm on Saturn is massive. (Note that the storm may have also begun on Dec 22, but wasn't reported until the next day.)
The Sun normally rises over Greenland's most westerly town, Ilulissat, on January 13, ending a month-and-a-half of winter darkness. For the first time in history, sunlight crept above the horizon two days early on January 11, 2011 [1.11.11] at 1pm. The media attributed the cause of the early sunrise to the melting of Greenland's ice. According to Sereda, that is laughable. Even Time Magazine said no. Many, many miles of ice would have have melted for this theory to be correct.
There was also a report that compass readings in Ilulissat were off by 3-4 degrees on 1/11/11, but returned to normal three days later. A compass is measuring the magnetic field – not the physical earth. However, the back and forth reading of the compass along with early sunrise indicates that the Earth actually wobbled. It must have wobbled at least a degree to have the sunrise occur two days early, according to Sereda.
Einstein said the field is the sole governing agency of matter. Fields of energy dictate the behavior of everything – from subatomic particles to massive planets. When you see a sudden change in an energy system, it will cause a sudden change to an ecosystem. With the giant storm on Saturn and the changes occurring on Earth, there is no doubt that something significant has happened from an energy or field perspective. Sereda concluded: "When you go into these new energy fields, changes are very sudden. you get these sudden vibrations. And, there it was. Everybody missed it."
Other indications that the entire solar system is undergoing change are the melting poles on Mars, massive storms on Jupiter, and temperatures rising on many of the planets. All of these changes on the planets indicates that the entire solar system has entered a new field of energy.
Sereda also pointed out that the human body has an electromagnetic field that can be affected by activity on the sun, as well as energies coming from the galactic center, as the Earth moves through it. Fields of energy have either chaos or harmonic information inside of it. According ot Sereda, if these energy fields that are coming in from the galactic center contain harmonic information, then there is absolutely no doubt that you can scientifically prove that it is causing a consciousness shift on this planet and will continue to do so through 2012.
One of the theories of 2012 is that we are going to receive this new energy that will cause a shift in consciousness and it will affect everything on the planet – including the planet itself. Bruce Lipton has said that consciousness tells energy to tell the DNA what to do. Your genes are not your blueprint. Consciousness is your blueprint. Therefore, it is likely that along with a shift in consciousness, our DNA will be upgraded.
A worldwide consciousness expansion is happening now and will continue through 2012, which is now confirmed by science and the events that are currently unfolding around the world.
David Wilcock, among others, has been lecturing for several years now about energy coming in from the galactic center that will trigger higher consciousness and a DNA upgrade. You can learn a whole lot more by watching his outstanding film, "2012 Event Horizon":

This is an excellent video, and held me to the conclusion. I've heard Wilcox speak before, and really impressed with him, but much of this was new to me, and very interesting. I once read the Great Pyramid Encoded, but didn't quite understand it all, nor that 2012 was indicated by the rainbow/pregnant earth/rebirth, but, feel it rings true.
Thanks for posting,
Has anyone heard of the trace chemical elements left over from the last Cosmic Superwave event, that took place during the time of Atlantis ?, Irradium and what ?.
Is there a significance behind the atomic composition of these two elements, that is useful in determining the trigger of their inherent effects of energy transformation and possbly - enhancing Human Conciousness as well in some way, along with the amplification up to 7X as well. www.newscienceideas.com and ufotv.com may have other little gooodies of information to share as well.
The Swartzchild Wormhole Model from Physics has a red torus ring in it's center as articulated by a gate of some sort - then surrounded by the usual wormhole openings on either end etc., but, also in the middle is a large rectangular..., mirror ?, for it's effect on operation..., what is this all about - how does it work ?.
Thank you, Vince
check out www.amazon.com for the Stargate 2012 DVD. It is $38.00
I am looking for an article from www.space.com thta idicates research has been done, revealing thta a cross-coorelation of a " Cosmic Event " such as a Super Nova can release, Super Wave energy - that somehow improves Human Conciousness ?.
In the DVD ( Quantum Astrology ) by Levine - during these times events of invention, such as the printing press, and later an IBM computer - first of it's kind were inspired and built. The 100 -years Starship project as made Public last Oct. by NASA Ames /DARPA could be the result in preparation to move forward with the same kind of thinking and shift in conciousness to make this happen ?. The new article in Popular Science Magazine - reveals more detail of thinking, in the After Earth evoulution or .... Re-evoulution prospects.
Has anyone heard of the DVD - Stargate 2012 by Willam Henry?.
Thank you, Vince
I can so relate to David Wilcox - the second coming we have been waiting for is us! This is such an exciting time when all will be revealed and we will at last remember who we are and where we are heading!

Sprint Nexus S 4G update canceled
Summary: The flaky Android update system has resulted in the postponement of the update for the Sprint Nexus S 4G. Even Google's flagship Android phone isn't safe from the awful update process.
Have you been waiting for the bug fixing update that Sprint was rolling out for the Nexus S 4G on July 11? You should stand down as something has forced the carrier to postpone the update until some unspecified date in the future. No reason was given for holding off on the Nexus S 4G OTA update, unlike the one for the Samsung Transform that began rolling out but "was failing" before cancelation. That one will be rescheduled for some point when the update will actually work.
The Nexus S 4G update will bring the flagship Google phone to the latest version of Gingerbread. More importantly the update addresses signal strength issues that some Sprint customers have reported affecting both phone calls and data connections. Hopefully it won't be long delayed for those customers.
These update problems demonstrate once again how poorly the Android update system works. It's never known which phones will get a given update, or when it might happen if so. Now we have a couple of handsets that are to get an update which gets canceled for reasons unknown. It is not a simple process for Android handset makers, that is certain.

If you find that you're not motivated to keep going because you're not losing weight fast enough, I have a few challenges for you. Take some time to study the questions below and figure out what you think about exercise. What are your fears? What is holding you back from making exercise a part of your life? How can you make workouts more appealing? These are just some of the questions you'll be able to answer.
- Name 3 benefits you get
from exercise that have nothing to do with weight loss.
Example: 1. I feel proud of myself for finishing the workout. 2. I feel energized for the rest of the day. 3. I sleep better on the days I workout.
- Name 3 things you like about
Example: 1. It's the only time I have to myself all day long. 2. I always feel better once I get started. 3. I'm more confident when I take time to workout.
- Name 3 things you could do to make your workouts more enjoyable.
Example: 1. Take time to warm up instead of jumping into an intense workout. 2. Do more activities outside--I don't like the gym. 3.Find a workout buddy to keep me motivated.
- Describe your favorite exercise and why you like it.
Example: I like running because it's easy--I can do it anywhere and all I need is a pair of shoes. I like the fresh air and I always feel good about myself when I finish a good run.
- What are some activities you'd try if only you were in better shape,
stronger, more conditioned, etc.
Example: Cross-country skiing, Snowboarding, Group fitness classes
- Name your biggest obstacle to exercising. Now, name 3 ways to overcome it for your next workout.
Example: Being too busy. To overcome that I can: 1.Schedule my workouts in my calendar. 2. Have consequences if I don't follow through (i.e., I can't watch my favorite TV show). 3. Try shorter workouts that fit within my schedule.
- Name some rewards you could give yourself for completing all your workouts for one week.
Example: 1. A massage. 2. Some new workout shoes or clothes. 3. That new novel I've been wanting to buy.
- Name some consequences for not doing your workouts.
Example: 1. No TV unless I do my workout. 2. If I skip my workout, I have to do a horrible household chore (clean the grout in the bathroom, give the cat a bath, etc.). 3. If I don't exercise, I have to spend 30 minutes rubbing my spouse/loved one's feet.
- Describe 3 ways in which exercise could improve your current and future quality of life if you did it consistently.
Example: 1. I'll have stronger bones and more endurance. 2. Preserving muscle mass so that my metabolism doesn't drop. 3. I'm less likely to gain weight and I reduce my risk of heart disease and other problems.
- What's your biggest fear when it
comes to exercise? How realistic is this fear?
Example: That I'll fail to finish my workout. This fear isn't very realistic since I definitely won't succeed if I don't do it.

I love Anita's site Married with Dinner. Every time I read it I am completely inspired to start the tradition of cocktails in our home. If we had more space we would probably be doing just that. When we come to Montana, we seem to have cocktails more often, maybe because we have more space and a bar dedicated to just making those vibrations or maybe to deal with the craziness?
In honor of Thanksgiving week, I wanted to make the Oh Henry cocktails. Unfortunately, when I ran to the liquor store I forgot the benedictine so I am calling this the Oh Montana cocktail. We used ginger beer and bourbon. It was spicy and smooth ……..
Tomorrow we will have to give the Oh Henry another try!

As is often the case with sports, those who are the most dedicated fans are the most given to extreme highs and lows. Of late, I hear the cries of panic. It is time to blow up the Suns, fire the coach, and run the GM out of town. Is it time for panic or patience?
I realize the Suns have disappointed many this season, myself included.
On paper they should have an awesome team. The have 2 MVP and long time All-Star players in Nash and Shaq. They have 3 other players who are currently or previously All-Stars in Stat, Hill, and J Rich. They also have a former best 6th man award winner in LB.
The detractors at the beginning of the season, said the Suns were too old. Shaq is washed up, and Nash's best basketball is behind him.
The positive is that Shaq has proven everyone wrong ... again.
(As an aside, it has also proven that the Suns have the best medical staff, probably in all of sports. I have seen it repeatedly over the years how they have kept the time lost to injury to an extreme low. Broken down players come here and get an extension on their career. Healthy players leave and run into health trouble [e.g. Marion].)
Shaq is a huge bright side for the Suns. He is still one of the best centers in the game. He is able to get good shots for himself and others, like Nash. He is the answer to who will run the offense when Nash is sitting, though it is not always clear the Suns understand that.
Stat has had his ups and downs. He has had some monster games early in the season, enough to get an All-Star spot. Since then he has lost his fear factor. He has turned the ball over at an alarming rate and seems to disappear for whole quarters. Besides that there is the rumor of his ego spoiling the chemistry. Still I know that he is one of the best and most fearsome power forwards in the game, when he is given the ball in opportunities to be successful. He has a drive to be the best that I would not feel comfortable betting against.
Nash is still one of the top point guards in the lead. He is a great shooter from anywhere on the floor. He is one of the best assist men of all time. He is a master at getting guys the balls for high percentage shots. He may be losing some steps, but he will probably have to be using a walker before he is not worth having on the court.
Hill has also been a pleasant surprise. With the departure of Marion, he has taken the mantle as best one-on-one defender for the Suns. He regularly forces tough shots and draws charges as well as anyone. He also has to have the sweetest mid-range jumper in the game. Besides that he has tons of basketball smarts and is able to help his team even when he doesn't have the ball.
On paper J Rich is also a huge talent. He has been one of the best 3pt shooters in the league this season. His ability to run, rebound, and jump has been great at times. He is a proven NBA star that could be huge if he given time to acclimate to the team.
LB has had an inconsistent year as it seems he also is trying to adjust (as all the Suns are) to playing under a different coach with a different offensive scheme. He has had enough games to show that he is still an awesome offensive weapon, capable of going off at any time. He is still a young developing player so there is hope that he will continue to get better as the season progresses.
The rest of the bench has also had their ups and downs. Barnes has oscillated between great (hitting big 3pt shots and grabbing rebounds) and poor (throwing the ball away too many times), but has shown his potential. Lightning Lou has shown a great spark off the bench, bringing the hustle that is often lacking. Dudley, Lopez, Dragic, and Tucker all could step up down the stretch given the right opportunity.
Again, on paper, there is no better starting 5 in all of basketball. They have a solid 6th man in Barbosa, and enough talent on the bench to go at least 8 deep (Barnes and Lou).
Their biggest obstacle is mental and psychological. Mental in that the Suns players and coaches have to mentally adjust to one another and figure out how to get on the same page. Psychological in that the Suns have to regain their confidence and swagger. They have to expect tough matches, but also expect that they will overcome. They will overcome hot shooting teams, poor officiating, and old nemesis'. The have to get motivated to play playoff caliber ball every night. They have to continue to improve. They have the potential to be the best team in basketball but they are not there yet.
Is it time to panic? Fire the coach? Blow up the team and look to the future?
Are you crazy?! The Suns are in the middle of the playoff hunt (solidly over 50%). If they continue to jell as the season progresses they (like the Cardinals) could do great things in the playoffs. Do you remember what it is like to have a consistently losing team (like the Cardinals before this year)? How many teams are in the rebuilding phase? Everyone that is outside of the playoffs! Ask them how much fun that is, and whether they would trade places with the Suns.
I was not a big fan of the previous trade that sent Bell and Diaw to Charlotte for J Rich. (BTW, I was also not a fan of Kerr interfering with D'Antoni encouraging him to leave). I knew that Bell and Diaw were quality players who just had not been worked into the system. I thought and still think that Diaw is one of the most talented players in basketball, and perhaps my favorite player to watch ... period. Bell was the heart of the Suns, their passion, their fire. I don't think J Rich gives you much more than Bell does, and so I think the trade reduced the depth of the Suns. In one sense, it was a good trade because it didn't seem like the Suns knew how to use Diaw effectively anyway so then they may have upgraded the talent at the 2 slightly. Either way it is water under the bridge. J Rich may still surprise me. I suspect that Diaw will continue to surprise everyone else (especially some Suns fan that love to diss him). J Rich is a Suns player now, so I'm still rooting for him.
So let's keep some perspective, people. There are still a lot of games to play. Once we are in the playoffs, record doesn't matter. Anyone can win. Ultimately, it is not about winning a championship. It is about entertainment. If the Suns don't bring you entertainment, then find something else to do.
Only one team will win the championship ... then that will be quickly forgotten 4 months later as a new season starts. The sport dilemma is that there is always next year, for the champion as well as for all the rest. The end is not nearly as enjoyable as how you got there.
Go Suns!

My posts about: seo
The Guardian has poked some fun at the Edinburgh Fringe website for banning people linking to it in its terms and conditions. Can this still be going on, more than a year after I revealed that most newspapers banned deep links, as did brands like Apple, Royal Mail, Channel 4 and, er, the Association of Online Publishers (which culminated in the hilarity of my attempts to get the Royal Mail to post me the paper licence they insisted I needed to link to them)?
Here are some more sites that still think they can - or should - ban people linking to them. YOU ARE ALL CLOWNS.
Lovechips.co.uk: It lies about the nutritional value of potatoes. The people who commissioned it don't know or care that it's rubbish. But shutting it down won't save us a penny, even though the government claims it will.
Channel 4 is keyword stuffing the Title of its Big Brother homepage:
Home - Big Brother - Channel4.com - Big Brother, bigbrother, BB, BB11, 4oD, Live Stream, Live Streaming, Live Feed, Channel 4, Channel4, C4, housemates, house, Ben, Caoimhe, Corin, David, Govan, Ife, John James, Josie, Mario, Nathan, Rachael, Shabby, Steve, Sunshine

Google's Matt Cutts says that the search engine has taken action to improve search results for people searching in the UK - the "UK SERPS" problem.
There's a fascinating Q&A with the Google search quality team over at Digital Inspiration. Here's some analysis of what they had to say, which includes:
If you don't nofollow affiliate links, your search engine rankings will suffer.
Links in copy ARE worth more than other ones.
Rel=canonical is suggested for cross-domain redirects - 301 isn't mentioned.
Google doesn't seem to like guest blogging.
Linking out both benefits you and doesn't benefit you at the same time.
Google says it has "taken action" and no longer trusts links from a major UK newspaper group - apparently referring to the Daily Express website.
The Express and OK sites appeared to suffer page rank penalties in April - and Google has now confirmed it has taken action against a UK newspaper site.
Google appears to be trialling some new related-search links over at Google.com - a list of "brands for ..." when you search for products. (Update: official confirmation).
So search for digital cameras at google.com (NB not ...
As with their party leaders' websites, the parties' online approaches to their manifestos leave a lot to be desired - although Labour has a clear victory over the Conservatives.
YouTube has a tool - YouTube Insights for Audience - that lets you check out which sorts of people use YouTube, and what sorts of videos particular subsections watch.
So by checking UK viewers only, we can see their age ranges (40% are aged 18-24, for instance) and gender split (72.7% of UK viewers are male).
Google's planning an online property portal. For now, it seems to be attempting to soften up the market by suggesting estate agents belong inside - as this search for "Estate agents in Islington" showed ...
Following on from yesterday's Cash Gordon debacle, the site is now live again. I thought I'd offer some SEO tips as they seem to be floundering about the place .
Ever done a search for Ann Widdecombe? No, me neither until today. There's an interesting image shown, as you can see.
I wrote a guest post about when you should pay professional rates for great copywriting - as opposed to 2p a word via some content mill, or even less for some automated keyword spewer.
If you fancied reading it and retweeting it, I might get invited back to do another one (and you might find it interesting, too).
Every blog post ever about SES London 2010 ...
I might be going bonkers. But I have a Firefox stylesheet that reveals which links are nofollow. And 'm fairly sure that, last time I looked, @ mentions of people's names weren't nofollowed - but now are, as this screenshot demonstrates.
Whatever you do, don't follow the wordpress advice on SEO ...
It seems to think keywords are really important but meta descriptions aren't.
Exacting revenge on a company that secretly added links to clients' sites by targeting their analytics data ...
So, just as Search Engine Land has issued some SEO advice for Bill Gates's blog, I thought I'd help the Pope out with some SEO and copywriting tips.
Searchers in the UK are starting to prefer the US spelling of some words. Although we can still spell centre and theatre, with the following words the US spelling is now searched for more often than the UK version:
* donut vs doughnut
* yogurt vs yoghurt
* fetus vs foetus

A colleague of mine returned to Singapore on Wednesday, May 27 from Boston, USA, where he'd spent the week between May 17 and May 24. He came back with a cold, a bad one.
He was sure it was a cold, not the flu: his temperature had not gone over 36 degrees C (98 F), he had no fever, no headache, no chills. He had cleared the thermal screening at Singapore's Changi Airport. But he had a meeting with a client scheduled on Friday, May 29, so he informed the client on Thursday, May 28 of his condition. The client asked him to (quoting the client's e-mail) "get clearance from a doctor that it is just a common cold, and not something serious" before coming to their office. He called his doctor on Friday morning, 29 May.
This is his first-hand, contemporaneous account of his experience as a suspected carrier of H1N1.
9.40 Call my doctor. All patients who have been to Mexico, USA or Canada and who have any of the flu symptoms, have to go to Tan Tock Seng Hospital (TTSH) by ambulance. [TTSH is Ground Zero for infectious disease in Singapore. It was the focal point for response to SARS, H5N1 "bird flu" and now H1N1 "swine flu". Five TTSH health care workers died of SARS in 2003 as a result of caring for patients. Read more... (1491 words, 0 images, estimated 5:58 mins reading time)
I can find no clinical evidence that Roche's Tamiflu is more effective than GlaxoSmithKline's less-prescribed Relenza against Type A influenza like H1N1 and H5N1.
I have found abundant evidence, however, that Switzerland-based Roche has run marketing circles around U.K.-based GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) by emphasizing the convenience of swallowing a Tamiflu capsule over the hassle of inhaling Relenza powder.
That's the only reason I can imagine why a dose of Tamiflu is two to three times as expensive as a dose of Relenza. A dose of 75mg Tamiflu costs US$5 to US$10 at Internet pharmacies, but a dose of 5mg Relenza costs only US$2.50 to US$3.50. Both require prescriptions.
If the target population covered by your business continuity plan includes a large number of children, you will prefer a Tamiflu caplet that is easier for children to swallow. But, for adults, inhaling Relenza is just as effective, much less expensive, and more readily available than Tamiflu at doctors' offices and pharmacies in Asia.
If this isn't a business school case study in the importance of packaging, it surely will be. Read more... (2506 words, 1 image, estimated 10:01 mins reading time)
An epidemic of avian influenza in West Bengal, India has the Indian "government in panic mode", according to the Times of India web site. And with good reason: 15 million of West Bengal's 80 million people are crammed into its capital city, Kolkata (Calcutta), a petri dish of poverty, pollution, political intransigence and hopeless public health. It is the city where Mother Teresa founded the Missionaries of Charity order.
If the infection reaches Kolkata's poultry markets, there is a much greater risk of animal-to-human transmission than there has been in Indonesia or Vietnam, where infections of H5N1 influenza have already crossed species from animals to humans.
There have been many more human infections of highly-pathogenic influenza in Indonesia (120 cases, 98 deaths) and Vietnam (102 cases, 48 deaths) than in India. There were three outbreaks of avian influenza in India in 2006, but there have been no human deaths there, yet.
But Kolkata is a whole other miasma of misery. The population density of Kolkata is 24,000 people per square kilometer (62,000 per square mile), the second highest in the world. The population density of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam's largest city, is only 3,000 per square kilometer (8,000 per square mile), a fraction of Kolkata's. Even the density of Jakarta, Indonesia, at 12,500 people per square kilometer (33,000 per square mile), is just half that of Kolkata. Read more...

Thousands of innocent bankers could perish in Singapore's next financial sector disaster exercise in 3Q 2008, when the Standing Committee on Business Continuity Management of the Association of Banks in Singapore (ABS) plans to simulate the late stages of an infectious disease epidemic on the island.
No event in Singapore can be taken seriously until it has an acronym, so an exercise for the Lion City's entire financial sector is called an "industry-wide exercise," or "IWE."
The ABS committee favors a multi-day IWE spread over two (2) weeks. The U.K. ran a financial sector pandemic scenario, "Exercise Winter Willow," over three weeks from January 30 to February 20, 2007, and a similar exercise in the U.S.A in September and October also lasted three weeks. Members of the ABS committee, who represent big local and global financial institutions, participated in one or both of those exercises and have concluded that three weeks is too long. Senior management loses interest. Read more... (450 words, 0 images, estimated 1:48 mins reading time)

I long to live, breathe, learn and proclaim the most epic Story of all…God's Story
I married the love of my life on July 8, 2006. Together we are raising the two most beautiful boys on the planet, Caleb (4) and Noah (2).
I am a student and Graduate Assistant at Northern Theological Seminary in Lombard, Illinois and hope to graduate in 2015. I've loved every single moment at Northern. Some of the greatest teachers in the world teach there.
I am the Teaching Pastor and Church Plant Pastor in Residence at Trinity Church of the Nazarene in Naperville, Illinois. Basically, I get to teach/preach and love on the people at Trinity while working towards planting a Church in the next few years. I'm jazzed.
I am really just a wannabe blogger and theologian…and accidental heretic often. I hope you'll join me in the conversation!

The Sierra is again a giant, frozen well…holding our water as snow until it melts. The final chapter was written above, up high where the water counts most. There for his 21st year, hydrologist Dan Greenlee didn't expect much, telling us, "No. No, not a whole lot more than what we were measuring on January 1st."
The Mt. Rose summit is where we found out how big of a snow season it really was. There was no feeling of celebration this time…the mood a bit more ominous after a dramatically dry March. As Greenlee put it, "I've really seen the numbers drop off in the last couple of months, so it's been a pretty sad bleak end to the year right now."
A decent snow bounty measurement was unlikely. The thinly-covered hills up where we were at 8,800 feet revealed light Pacific moisture…certainly no "Miracle March". The trek to the measurement site was unusual…this time no snowshoes were required.
At the measurement site, the first clue came from the same time-tested method that hasn't changed since 1906: the tube in the snow to measure the snow depth. After the depth is measured, the pole is weighed. That fills out the picture…the heavier the snow is, the wetter.
When the survey was over, Greenlee told us it was all "Pretty much bad news. About 6 feet of snow up here and 30 inches of water content. That's under average for this time of year."
Area-wide, the totals look like this: Mt. Rose is at 83% of average. The Walker Basin is at 71%, while the Carson River is holding at 67%. The Truckee Basin has some catching up to do at 60%, and Tahoe stands at close to half...only 52%. Overall, the legacy from last winter and early spring is lackluster, with little time to catch up. Greenlee says, "We'll make it through another summer, no sweat on that, but it's just pretty disappointing. It's just not the year we wanted to have."
Altogether, a bad omen for our water supply as the final snowpack measurement of the season closes the book, on what is typically our wettest time of year.
-written by John Potter
You can see a more specific breakdown of the current snowpack measurements here:
On Tuesday, April 2nd TMWA released this statement:
According to Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) officials, snowpack in the Truckee River Basin finished the year at well below average. This marks the second consecutive dry year for the Truckee River watershed. As the water purveyor for 330,000 residents of the Reno/Sparks area, Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA) closely monitors the snowpack and our region's water supply. Despite the continued dry cycle, the Truckee River is projected to flow normally for the rest of the year, enabling TMWA to meet the water needs of customers.
"We plan for a nine year drought, which is one year longer than the longest drought on record, and with our extensive network of upstream storage reservoirs, we will be able to meet the needs of our customers without having to utilize our reserves this summer," Bill Hauck, senior hydrologist for TMWA, said. "Our upstream reservoir storage is how we are able to manage through dry years, like this, and their importance cannot be stressed enough."
In addition to drought reserves in upstream reservoirs, TMWA also has a series of 32 production wells located throughout the Truckee Meadows, which can be used to meet customer demand during extreme periods of drought where river flows drop off. However, these production wells will not be used this year as it will be business as usual for TMWA and our customers this summer.
Customers are always encouraged to use water responsibly and to use the weather as their guide for outdoor water use. Assigned watering days remain the same this year as for the last several years. If the last number of your home or business address is:

If you think that a member of your family, friend, or colleague is suffering from undiagnosed hearing loss, think about who would be the right person to discuss this with.If you are the right person, you should try to be as helpful and supportive as possible. Before you discuss the issue with the hearing-impaired person in question, keep in mind that he or she may not be aware of the problem and can be sensitive to the idea of hearing loss.
Your task is to continue being supportive, understanding and helpful. This site will help you by giving you great information on hearing loss and better communication habits. The more you know, the better you can help.
Hearing loss affects most people who suffer from it. But hearing impairment also affects those people closest to the hearing-impaired person, for example family, friends, and colleagues.
If you think somebody close to you is suffering from hearing loss, there are certain signs that you should be aware of. One or more almost always occur. Some depend on the degree of hearing loss and the individual's reaction to his or her (undiscovered) hearing loss.
Some of the most common signs of hearing loss include:
- Turning up the volume of the TV or radio
- Problems hearing the doorbell or the telephone ringing
- Difficulty hearing people calling and talking or talk from behind
- Often asking people to repeat themselves – or saying "what?"
- Misunderstanding what has been said or agreed upon
- Often cupping hands behind the ears
- "Forgetting" what has been said or agreed upon
If you find that your suspicion is confirmed and a hearing problem may be present, it is important that the individual has a hearing test. But before you discuss the issue with the hearing-impaired person in question, keep in mind that he or she may not be aware of the problem and may be sensitive to the thought of acknowledging the possibility of a hearing loss.
Here is some good advice for relatives and colleagues of a hearing-impaired person.
Advice for a relative:
- Do not forget that a family member is suffering from hearing loss
- Help the hearing-impaired person
- Do not repeat what has just been said
- Never patronize a hearing-impaired person
- Use humor, it helps
- Help to increase the hearing-impaired person's confidence
Advice for colleagues:
- Show consideration, but do not overdo it
- Speak up a little, but do not shout
- Keep eye contact
- Do not turn your back on the hearing-impaired person while talking
- Check whether the hearing-impaired person has understood what you have been saying
- Let the hearing-impaired person tell you how to communicate in the best possible way
- Show respect for the hearing-impaired person
- Keep in mind that one of your colleagues is hearing-impaired

You have to figure, after the 3-0 start ,they're a much more appropriate 3-8, and just broke a 4-game losing streak. Even the blindest squirrel is going to find a nut here and there. There was no way they were going to go 0-82, and there was no guarantee that they would have gotten Wiggins if they did go 0-82 (or even 3-79).
There is absolutely no way anyone should be discussing anything other than trading Hawes and Turner while their value is at its absolute max, which is to say right the hell now while they're both playing at unsustainable levels. And basically, Turner's POINTZZZZZZ!!!!! are high enough to somewhat obscure that they are being scored in his traditionally inefficient manner, except for the occasional game (or half + OT like last night) where he remembers that he knows how to get to the basket now instead of just getting long 2's.
Look. Even if they trade Hawes, Thad, and Turner tomorrow for draft picks (PICKZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!), a lineup of MCW/Anderson/Thompson/Lavoy/Orton will still win a *few* games. Admittedly not many, but they wouldn't go 0-68. MCW will have one of those games, or Wroten will go off, or Anderson will score 37 again.
I just don't see the extreme rage on both sides of the tanking argument right now. This team is built to lose, and lose it will, and lose it has at a much more acceptable rate since the ridiculous first week of the season. On the other hand, occasional wins are inevitable, and we might as well enjoy them if they're fun basketball. I bow to no one in my dislike of Turner's and Hawes's games and my desire to see them traded right now, and I want to get a top player or two out of the draft. But they could trade everyone currently on the roster and whatever D-Leaguers they put out there will occasionally win a game, and if it happens to be entertaining, I'm willing to be entertained in the moment.

David – A Case Study in Real Repentance
Jeff Crippen ♦ February 2, 2012 ♦ 4 Comments
Because repentance is so often feigned by the abuser, it is extremely important for us, as well as victims, to understand what real repentance looks like. Here is a truly repentant man – King David. He had sinned horribly. He had murdered, committed adultery – and did it all against a most loyal subject and …
Saul – A Case Study in False Repentance
Jeff Crippen ♦ February 2, 2012 ♦ Leave a comment
As anyone familiar with the mentality and tactics of the abuser knows, false repentance is a common ploy of such people. They can be very convincing. They have changed. What they did was wrong, but they are finished with it forever. If their victim will only forgive them, all will be well. So it is …

The Dream
I have a dream…
I will complete my dissertation on the experiences of high achieving Black male football players at predominantly White division I schools in the South. This research will shed a more positive light on Black male football players, come from the perspective the players, and begin new conversations on how to retain this student population. (this WILL happen)
And then…
I will do more than just publish my findings in a top tier journal and present at various conferences (this too WILL happen). I will also get this information into the hands of the people who will benefit from it most—Black students, their parents, their churches, their guidance counselors, and anyone who works directly with them. These conversations (and this research) will not demonize the young men who choose to participate in athletes but show them how to flourish in academic and athletic arenas.
I will then conduct further research with other scholars (esp. Brandon Martin, Shaun Harper, Ivory Toldson, etc.) on matters of achievement, athletics (basketball), and HBCU's. We will use this research to uplift the community, inspire the next generation of scholars, and challenge those who continue to spread false information about our promising young men.
And in the words of Dr. Toldson, "…I woke up but I'll never stop dreaming

As a former history teacher, I looked forward to listening to this episode and was impressed at its portrayal of how Rasputin died. What the "Courtyard of Death" touched upon--but didn't dare go into detail--was the perverse life of Rasputin. Though he was a spiritual adviser to the Romanovs (Alexandra more so than Nicholas whom was afraid of Rasputin), Rasputin was as perverse as a man could be. He believed that in order for forgiveness to abound, he would have to do acts that would require forgiveness. Rasputin was a sexual deviant and murderer. The episode did a fair job of detailing the death of Rasputin who in actuality lived through a stabbing and an effort to poison him which the episode does touch upon. "Courtyard of Death" did a nice job introducing its listener to Rasputin and the last czar of Russia. 3 stars.
Davy Joe, 2012-07-26 08:58:16
The story of Rasputin and the Russian monarchy at the early part of the 20th century. Rasputin is a notorious drinker and womanizer who is also a priest. He is either much loved, or much hated by citizens. He holds great power and influence in the country and seems to hold the ruling monarchs in his pocket. One family loses a daughter to the wiles of Rasputin, "Come sin with me as you've never sinned before, then we shall pray together and seek salvation." The girl's sister seeks revenge.
Rhody, 2013-01-17 09:47:19
I enjoyed this episode. The history woven into the story was fairly accurate. However, the acting was very, very overdone. Also, I'd love to hear an episode where the actors would attempt an accent. I get tired of American actors hamming it up for an American audience with no attempt at sounding appropriate for the part. It removes so much from the story. Would it be so hard for the actors to attempt a slight Russian accent? It really would have added dimension and possibly taken away from the over-the-top acting each actor gave to the script. It was as though they were trying to over act one another. Three starts

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Two former Levelland Sheriff's Deputies and all of their current co-defendants plan to admit guilt and take a plea bargain.
Former Hockley County Chief Deputy Gordon Bohannon, and Deputy Jesse Quintanilla were arrested on July 10th, 2009 along with other defendants. They were accused of helping Bobby Froman run a methamphetamine drug ring.
Prosecutors filed a document last week saying in part, "...each of the defendants in this case has declared his or her intent to plead guilty and a date has been scheduled for their guilty plea."
The trial that was scheduled for November 2nd has been vacated.
According to the Hockley County Sheriff's Office, Quintanilla resigned voluntarily after Sheriff David Kinny was removed as Sheriff in August. Kinney was removed by a judge at the request of the Hockley County Attorney's Office. Kinny was accused of incompetence and filing two fraudulent documents. The judge then appointed Kevin Davis as the Hockley County Sheriff.
