CATEGORIES MoviesTate Taylor, who came virtually out of nowhere to helm the critically and financially successful 'The Help,' which is based on a best-selling novel, is in early talks to direct 'Peace Like a River,' an adaptation of yet another novel, this one by Leif Enger.
Set in 1962 Minnesota, the 2002 novel is narrated by an asthmatic 11-year-old named Reuben Land who lives with his eccentric family. When two young troublemakers break into the family home, Reuben's 16-year-old brother guns them down and is subsequently convicted of murder. When he escapes, Reuben, his sister and his widowed father criss-cross the Midwest to find him. Their journey is touched by serendipity and the kindness of strangers, and its remarkable conclusion shows how family, love, and faith can stand up to the most terrifying of enemies and the most tragic of fates.
Warner Bros. has wanted to turn the sprawling book into a movie since 2004; the studio had even commissioned a screenplay and in 2005 was talking with Billy Bob Thornton to star as the father. But Warners couldn't find a director and the project sat on the back burner.
Now that Taylor and 'The Help' are hot, Warners is talking to the director to handle the film -- one that has a similar time period. If everything firms up -- and right now, according to The Hollywood Reporter, that's a big if since Taylor is eyeing other projects -- DreamWorks would come on board since that studio has an option on Taylor's next film as part of its deal to develop 'The Help.'
Taylor, by the way, has been paying his bills -- pre-'The Help' -- by acting, most notably in 2010's 'Winter's Bone.' After seeing 'The Help,' we think he can easily trade his SAG card in for a DGA membership.

I received a free Swerve goody bag for applying to be a Swerve Ambassador, though was not required to write a post. All opinions 100% my own.
I am doing everything I can to remove junk from my diet. I just don't want it, none of it. It isn't beneficial for my health, my body or my well-being, so I've made the choice to eliminate it. Early this year I vowed to live a healthier lifestyle by removing processed foods, soda, begin to exercise and drink water. I've done extremely well.
Recently, I've been trying to find sugar alternatives. Although, I do not eat granulated sugar, I know foods have hidden sugars in them, plus I have a major sweet tooth.
I was pleased to learn about Swerve Sweetener , the zero calorie sugar substitute that tastes just like sugar! Swerve is also perfect for those with diabetes as it doesn't affect blood sugar glucose or insulin levels.
Swerve is a natural sweetener, ideal for me or anyone looking to live a sugar free lifestyle. It is so simple to use, as it measures cup for cup (yay for no conversion charts) and does not have a harsh aftertaste. I went to baking right away and knew I wanted to recreate a pumpkin recipe. Not necessarily pumpkin pie, but a cake that tasted just like pumpkin pie, and I succeeded!
This healthy pumpkin pie cake has an extremely moist pumpkin pie like middle. I made a frosting as well, but this is amazing without it. The frosting makes this treat even more luscious, perfect to serve to those on Thanksgiving that are living a healthier lifestyle as well. I was pleased with how well Swerve blended while making this recipe. I can definitely tell this will be my new sugar substitute! I have made the Switch 2 Swerve!

According to Forrester's Enterprise and SMB Hardware Survey for North America and Europe, 61% of North American enterprises and 64% of European enterprises say that upgrading DR capabilities is either a critical or high priority for the next 12 months. The recent growth in popularity of cloud computing provides a new alternative for organizations looking to reduce the overall cost of business continuity and align the cost model of disaster recovery compute capacity with its "as needed" or
"on demand" nature.
Addressing business continuity, then, seems a natural extension of the existing adoption of cloud-based services. The degree to which available cloud computing offerings can truly address an organizations disaster recovery needs, though, varies greatly from provider to provider. Magnus Leask, a contributor for SearchVirtualDataCentre.co.UK, wrote an article a couple of weeks ago which does a great job of walking readers through the considerations that Fast Track (a Neverfail Customer) made when evaluating disaster recovery options using cloud computing. Here's an except and a link to the full article:
Cloud Computing Questions for Enterprises to Consider – http://searchvirtualdatacentre.techtarget.co.uk/generic/0,295582,sid203_gci1522122,00.html
"Whatever the true definition of cloud computing is, the fact remains that as it begins to creep into mainstream IT, a number of key challenges around business continuity and the availability of services, data and applications must first be addressed before adoption becomes widespread."

News: Waka Flocka Drops Diss-Filled Flame On Gucci Mane: "He Crossed The Line & He Became A F**k N***a" [Audio]
Thursday, Oct 3, 2013 8:28PM
Atlanta rapper Waka Flocka Flame is showing no sympathy toward Gucci Mane, who is serving a six-month sentence behind bars and planning a stint in rehab, by releasing a new diss track called "Ice Cream."
On the record, Flocka gets personal and does not fall back from unloading on his former rap partner.
Following their public blowout and Gucci's subsequent meltdown on Twitter, Waka Flocka Flame goes on the record with his Gucci Mane diss "Ice Cream." Over the 808 Mafia production, he calls out his former Brick Squad boss and lean-addicted rappers ("Ni**as sip codeine like it's lemonade"), while professing his realness. "I been a real ni**a since second grade/ And when I met Gucci, thought I met a real ni**a/ Until he crossed the line and he became a f*ck ni**a," raps Waka. Gucci is currently serving six months behind bars for violating his parole. "Ice Cream" can be found on Waka's DJ Scream-hosted mixtape From Roaches to Rolex, which drops tomorrow. (Rap-Up)
According to recent reports, Gucci received some bad news in an Atlanta courtroom last month.
Things are going from bad to worse for rapper Gucci Mane, who recently opened up about his drug addiction and was arrested for carrying a gun and weed. Now, it looks as if Mane will be spending some time behind bars for probation violation. According to papers uncovered by WorldWrapFederation.com, the rapper was booked for probation violation on September 16, just two days after his arrest on September 14. He was sentenced this past Friday (September 27), receiving 183 days (six months) in jail. Beyond that, we don't have any further information, but it looks as if Gucci still has five open charges surrounding his recent arrest (three of them regarding the firearm, one of them for the drugs, and another for disorderly conduct). Gucci has announced plans to enter rehab once he's through with his legal troubles. (Exclaim)
The Atlanta hip-hop heavyweight recently hopped onto his Twitter page to openly apologize for going on a rant a week ago.
"Woke up the other day out this hospital bed & I'm so embarrassed & ashamed of my behavior that was brought to my attention. (Cont)," he tweeted September 22.
"I just wanna man up right now & take this time to apologize to my family, friends, the industry & most of all my fans. I'm SORRY! (Cont)"
"I've been drinking lean for 10plus years & I must admit it has destroyed me. I wanna be the first rapper to admit (cont)"
"I'm addicted to lean & that sh*t ain't no joke. I can barely remember all the things I've done & said. However there's no excuse. (Cont)" (Gucci Mane's Twitter)
The rapper also revealed he was behind bars and would seek medical help.
"I'm currently incarcerated but I will be going to rehab because I need help. I wanna thank everyone that has stood by me (cont)"
"during this difficult time. Please keep me in your prayers. #GUWOP"
"I wanna personally apologize to birdman ross & drake. Dem my n*ggas. I 100% regret my words & actions ."
"Keyshia Dior Kaoir I'm sorry. Please forgive me" (Gucci Mane's Twitter)
Mane caught heat in mid-September after being arrested on multiple charges.
Gucci Mane was arrested this morning for allegedly cussing out a couple of cops in Atlanta while in possession of weed and a gun ... TMZ has learned. Gucci Mane -- real name Radric Davis -- was taken into custody at 12:05 am this morning after one of his friends complained to cops about his erratic behavior. According to the report -- the friend waved down police to help out ... but when they approached Gucci he began "cursing and threatening them." We're told he was immediately taken into custody and police found a small amount of marijuana on the 33-year old rapper ... as well as a handgun. (TMZ)

12-16-2008, 03:43 PM #11st Gen iPhone froze? Need help please?
I jailbroke and unlocked my phone months ago and haven't modded it at all since then.. It's worked great and I've had a few problems with it freezing every now and then but this morning when my alarm went off for work it just stopped going off and ever since then my phone has been froze I guess? It has a solid black screen like it's on standby and when I push the power button up top to turn it on or whatever it just flickers to a darker black and goes back to standby.. It's like it's trying to come on but it doesn't want to.. I dunno what else to do, I've tried pretty much everything.. If anyone could help or let me know if they've had this problem I'd greatly appreciate it..
I don't think it matters, but it's still running jailbroken 1.1.4 firmware and I can't boot to DFU Mode or anything.. Just flickers for a split second to a darker black when I push the power button.. It's not registering or whatever on iTunes and it goes straight to my voicemail now when someone calls.. It was ringing on the other end but I couldn't hear it and now it just goes to voicemail.. When it is plugged in it constantly flickers.. Any suggestions on what to do would help tremendously.. Thanks..

just take it to apple. tell them your battery died but you kept trying to get it to turn on and now this happened. they should replace or fix it for you. also if itunes recognizes it you could attempt to do a "shift" restore in itunes.The beatings will continue until morale improves.
I'm sure it's not under warranty anymore and there's not an Apple store around.. But I'll see what I can do.. And iTunes doesn't recognize it or I'd get that baby going..

Damn, If you can't boot to DFU mode..

I'd grab the Apple number, And call them and see if you can arrange anything.
Good Luck.
Thanks guys, I'll see what I can do.. I appreciate the help.

The performers were top-notch professionals--VERY entertaining and talented! Although I thoroughly enjoyed the show overall, I have mixed feelings about the contemporary references sprinkled within the original story.
Quotes & Highlights
Learn more about The Mikado from the in-depth information at the Gilbert & Sullivan Archive online.
Gilbert and Sullivan are the undisputed masters of comic operetta and the proud parents of the modern musical. That their works are more in demand today than when they were created over a century ago is ample proof of their lasting brilliance. The hapless lovers in The Mikado are mercilessly buffeted by social restrictions, legal inconsistencies, judicial inequities, government stupidities, and that's just the first act! Poor dears – it would be absolutely tragic if it weren't so hysterically funny.

no tiebreaker for lottery. if several teams finish with same record their % are summed up and then distributed equally
my 1st choice of punishment was for you to go with one less man in a rotation against same opponent in the 2nd half of the season (that's what i did last year in the lone penalty handed out), but since you don't play so-tex again that is not an option here. anyway there is no precedent one way or the other and i decided on what seemed fair to me. as i said if you don't like it and feel i was too harsh, feel free to ask for a league vote. no hard feelings from my side. anybody who thinks coming up with penalties is easy is much mistaken

Should The Big Drop In The Dow Be Of Concern?
Posted November 4, 2007
0 Comments
Last Thursday the DOW JONES INDEX dropped more than 362 points or 2.6%, its fourth-worst trading day of the year. Should this be a cause of concern? No, this drop was largely the reaction of big institutional investors to the financial services sector, which makes up a large percentage of the DOW. As the WALL STREET JOURNAL said, they were punishing big banks and brokerage firms like Citigroup, Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, Smith Barney and Bear Stearns. These big banks and brokerage firms have been widely criticized in the press for lending billions of dollars to hedge funds on margin who were relending money to mortgage companies who were pushing loans to some people who had no jobs, no credit and no prospect of every paying them back.

What Keeps The Market Going Up?
Posted July 17, 2007
0 Comments
For months, the business press has been saying the stock market was heading into a bear market. But during the past few trading sessions both the S&P 500 Index and the Dow Index have logged historic record highs. Why is the market going up? THE ECONOMY IS DOING WELL. As I have repeatedly talked about in my weekly newsletters, in the short run, the stock market can often be out of sync with the economy, but in the long run, the stock market always follows the broad economy. This is what determines long-term stock market trends. In the long run, if the economy is basically doing well, the stock market goes up. If the economy is substantially slowing and going into a recession, the stock market will go down following the long-term trend in the economy. That is really all one has to know in order to do well in investing.

While the S&P 500 has loss a little over 16% since July 22, 2011, this is still technically a correction. We have to remember that a year ago the stock market dropped over 13.5% in March of 2010 and within a few months recovered and went on to new highs.

Has the Stock Market Hit Bottom Yet? How Long Will It Take to See a Sustained Uptrend in the Stock Market?
Posted September 19, 2011

I believe we did hit a bottom several weeks ago, but I also believe we will experience another six to eight weeks of stock market uncertainty until we start seeing a sustained upward swing in the market hopefully in November and December.

How Is The Economy Other Than The Sub-Prime Mess And High Fuel Prices?
Posted November 27, 2007
0 Comments
Stock market analysts continue to focus on high oil prices and the bad loans made by big banks and big brokerage companies in the sub-prime lending scandal. How is the rest of the economy doing? Make no mistake about it the economy is growing at a slower rate now than it has over the past five years. The recent stock market pull-backs in August and during the past few weeks reflect a stock market that is simply adjusting from a GROWTH BULL MARKET to a SLOWER GROWING BULL MARKET. This is very normal at this stage of the bull market cycle. However, the rest of the economy is doing well and many stock market analysts seem to overstate the importance of high oil prices and the banking crisis.

The University of Texas-Pan American PsiChi Chapter celebrated its twentieth anniversary at an April 29 gathering. PsiChi, the National Honor Society in Psychology, was founded in 1929 to foster academic excellence in psychology. Dr. Mark Winkel, director of the Graduate Psychology Program and Associate Professor in the Department of Psychology and Anthropology, founded the UTPA chapter in 1983.
"There was a Psychology Club here before I arrived in 1982, but then I thought, because the department was growing, it was important that we formalize it and become a member of the National Honor Society in Psychology. It was formed and has grown ever since," Winkel said. "I'm pleased to say that something I started is still in existence twenty years later."
The celebration was well attended with PsiChi officers, faculty and UTPA students coming together to socialize and listen to guest speakers. Many of the students there also participated in a workshop called "Demystifying Graduate School" presented by Dr. Grant Benham, assistant professor and the advisor of PsiChi and the Psychology Club, and Dr. Kristin Croyle, assistant professor in the Department of Psychology and Anthropology.
"We are giving the workshop to help students develop an early understanding of what can be a complicated process. We've found that students are often waiting too late, sometimes as late as their last semester, to collect necessary application materials and establish relationships with faculty members for letters of recommendation. Their applications could be greatly strengthened if they can understand what's involved and work towards that," Benham said. "We also want them to know what sort of graduate opportunities are available and what life at graduate school is really like. We hope to offer this workshop on a yearly basis."
Raul Mendoza, president of PsiChi and a senior majoring in Psychology, said, "I'm hoping we can boost memberships by allowing people to understand exactly what PsiChi does in terms of what it can provide to students who want to go into research and who want to continue their education. Being a part of PsiChi makes me a more marketable student."
During his address, Mendoza inducted ten new members and recognized former PsiChi advisors present at the celebration.
For more information on PsiChi please contact Dr. Grant Benham at 956/292-7342.

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Mark McGwire was hired Wednesday as hitting coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he'll work with All-Star sluggers Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier.
McGwire spent the past three seasons in the same job with the St. Louis Cardinals, where he starred during parts of his 16-year major league career. During McGwire's tenure, the Cardinals led the National League in batting average (.269) and on-base percentage (.337), ranked second in runs (2,263) and fourth in slugging percentage (.416).
He worked with All-Star sluggers Carlos Beltran, Lance Berkman, Matt Holliday and Albert Pujols, while helping develop 2011World Series MVP David Freese.
The job is a homecoming for McGwire, who is from the Los Angeles suburb of Pomona and currently lives in Orange County. He played college baseball at Southern California and was a member of Oakland's 1989 World Series champion team.
McGwire replaces Dave Hansen, who was let go last month and hired by the Seattle Mariners for the same job.

|This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2010)
Paraphyly is a characteristic of some groups of organisms and families of languages. In phylogenetics (a subfield of biology) and in linguistics, a group is said to be paraphyletic if it consists of all the descendants of the last common ancestor of the group's members minus a small number of monophyletic groups of descendants, typically just one or two such groups. Such a group is said to be paraphyletic with respect to the excluded groups. For example, the group of reptiles, as traditionally defined, is paraphyletic with respect to the mammals and birds: it contains the last common ancestor of the reptiles—including the extant reptiles as well as the extinct mammal-like reptiles—along with all descendants of that ancestor except for mammals and birds. Other commonly recognized paraphyletic groups include fish and lizards.
Groups that include all the descendants of a common ancestor are said to be monophyletic. A paraphyletic group is a monophyletic group from which one or more subsidiary clades (monophyletic groups) is excluded to form a separate group. Ereshefsky has argued that paraphyletic taxa are the result of anagenesis in the excluded group or groups. For example, dinosaurs are paraphyletic with respect to birds because birds possess many features that dinosaurs lack and occupy a distinctive niche.
A group whose identifying features evolved convergently in two or more lineages is polyphyletic (Greek πολύς [polys], "many"). More broadly, any taxon that is not paraphyletic or monophyletic can be called polyphyletic.
These terms were developed during the debates of the 1960s and 70s accompanying the rise of cladistics.
Many of the older classifications contain paraphyletic groups, including the traditional 2–6 kingdom systems and the classic division of the vertebrates. Examples of well-known paraphyletic groups include:
The following table shows some paraphyletic groups.
|Paraphyletic taxon
|Excluded clades
|Corresponding monophyletic taxon
|Even-toed ungulates[7]
|Mammalia, Aves (Birds)[9]
|Serpentes (Snakes)
|Cellular Organisms
|Bony fish[6]
|Cimolodonta, Arginbaataridae
When the appearance of significant traits has led a subclade on an evolutionary path very divergent from that of a more inclusive clade, it often makes sense to study the paraphyletic group that remains without considering the larger clade. For example, the Neogene evolution of the Artiodactyla (even-toed ungulates, like deer) has taken place in an environment so different from that of the Cetacea (whales, dolphins, and porpoises) that the Artiodactyla are often studied in isolation even though the cetaceans are a descendent group. The prokaryote group is another example; it is paraphyletic because it excludes many of its descendent organisms (the eukaryotes), but it is very useful because it has a clearly defined and significant distinction (absence of a cell nucleus, a plesiomorphy) from its excluded descendants.
Also, paraphyletic groups are involved in evolutionary transitions, the development of the first tetrapods from their ancestors for example. Any name given to these ancestors to distinguish them from tetrapods—"fish", for example—necessarily picks out a paraphyletic group, since the descendent tetrapods are not included.[14]
The term "evolutionary grade" is sometimes used for paraphyletic groups.[15]
Vivipary, the production of offspring without the laying of a fertilized egg, developed independently in the lineages that led to humans (Homo sapiens) and southern water skinks (Eulampus tympanum, a kind of lizard). Put another way, at least one of the lineages that led to these species from their last common ancestor contains nonviviparous animals, the pelycosaurs ancestral to humans for example; vivipary appeared subsequently in the human lineage.
Independently-developed traits like these cannot be used to distinguish paraphyletic groups since paraphyly requires the excluded groups to be monophyletic. Pelycosaurs were descended from the last common ancestor of skinks and humans, so vivipary could be paraphyletic only if the pelycosaurs were part of an excluded monophyletic group. Since this group is monophyletic, it contains all descendents of the pelycosaurs; since it is excluded, it contains no viviparous animals. This doesn't work, since humans are among these descendents. Vivipary in a group that includes humans and skinks cannot be paraphyletic.
The concept of paraphyly has also been applied to historical linguistics, where the methods of cladistics have found some utility in comparing languages. For instance, the Formosan languages form a paraphyletic group of the Austronesian languages as the term refers to the nine branches of the Austronesian family that are not Malayo-Polynesian and restricted to the island of Taiwan.[16]

Camarillo Ranch as a Location
Bert Lamb, a great-grandson of Adolfo Camarillo, moved to Camarillo Ranch in 1977 with his wife Linda. They lived in the Ranch House for twenty years. According to Linda and Bert Lamb, Camarillo Ranch became popular with location scouts. It was listed with the California State Film Commission. Location Scouts appreciated the variety of sites offered at one location. They especially liked the fact that there was no development behind the house, barn and other buildings. "There was nothing in the background," said Linda. "They could use the farm, the barns, the creek, the house."
Bert explained that the location could be easily changed to fit the needs of the script. He said that Polaroid did its entire season of commercials in just three days. The front lawn area was made to look like a golf course.
Movies and Television Shows Filmed at Camarillo Ranch
The Return of Count Yorga starring Mariette Hartley (1971)

Pendle pick up bonus against Crosby
5:18pm Tuesday 19th February 2013 in Sport
A DISPLAY of imperious kicking from the trusty boot of Rob Lawless was just one of the highlights of another impressive victory for Pendle Phoenix.
A five-try romp – all converted by Lawless – saw Pendle pick up a bonus point victory.
The win sees them move up to third place, in North Lancs Two with games in hand over Ashton-under-Lyne and Thornton Cleveleys.
While a play-off place maybe just out of their grasp, Pendle are going through a real purple patch of form. Daniel Rowland dapped down the first try after racing on to kick from James Finucane.
Luke McNamee crashed over for a second and Pendle were 21-0 up by the break after Sterling Ross sprinted over to continue his try and game ratio – all three superbly converted by Lawless. Pendle made changes at the break but kept the scoreboard ticking over. Shaye McCullough scored the bonus point fourth try and while Crosby scored a converted score, Andy Dutton added a fifth try with Lawless keeping up his 100 per cent record.

Spring training schedule released
The schedule is listed as "tentative", that's scary. What is the fall-back plan if they run into material delays? I know they held the option of training at Winterhaven again this year, but it would seem to me that that option has lapsed. This should be fun.

Sorry to use the word "dazzle" in a headline, but that's really the only word I can think of to describe it.
Incoming receiver Josh Lenz from Dubuque put on a show in the fourth quarter of the 37th Annual Shrine Bowl to lead the North over the South 21-17 and break their three-game winning streak. Lenz tallied 67 receiving yards (including a 54 yard game-winning touchdown with 2:16 left), 62 punt return yards (including a 58 yard touchdown to give the North their first lead of the game) and 109 kick return yards on three returns. Oh, he also grabbed offensive MVP honors. Whew.
Lenz's TD's were a welcomed change in pace for the game, with the only scoring occurred in the first and fourth quarters. The only action in between was a handful of missed field goals by North's kicker which ultimately set the stage for Lenz's heroics.
Yes, I'm sure everyone is going to say "it's just the Shrine Bowl" and all of the other related criticism. I realize that Lenz will probably redshirt or see very little playing time until he can bulk up. However, Lenz showed that he has some big playmaker potential for the future. He runs a 4.5 forty according to Rivals and showed that speed and quickness in his two touchdowns by finding a seam and busting through it to go virtually untouched.
Incoming linebacker Jake Knott from Waukee was the only other ISU recruit that played in the game. While it's harder to judge his performance because he didn't bust any huge plays, Knott looked good in pass coverage and was usually right by the pile at the end of the play. I talked to him after the game and he was a really nice guy that seemed almost overwhelmed just to be playing in Jack Trice. Just wait until fall, my friend...

ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) -- Most pundits Monday agree that the decision to remove Tubby Smith as head coach of the men's basketball team at the University of Minnesota was made before Sunday night's loss to Florida in the NCAA Tournament.
Minnesota Athletic Director Norwood Teague said Monday he felt the program failed to reach expectations-- which, ultimately, cost Tubby his job
Smith ends his tenure at the U with 124 victories and 81 defeats in six years on the bench.
Tubby won 20-games five times but Minnesota never finished with a Big Ten record above .500 and finished 7th place or worse 4-times in his six seasons. Smith was 46-and-62 in Conference play.
This year's team started 15-and-1 and was ranked as high as eighth, but struggled through the Big Ten schedule. The season did include a signature win over top-ranked Indiana.
Commentators Monday said there's no question Tubby ran a clean program, and most agree he left the team in better shape than when he arrived.
Smith's checkbook will also leave in better shape, too-- his contract stipulated he'll get a $2.5 million dollar buyout.
Top names out there as possible Minnesota head coach candidates include Shaka Smart from VCU. Teague came to Minnesota from VCU and knows Smart very well. Flip Saunders, the former Timberwolves coach, doesn't have a coaching job, and has been mentioned as a possible candidate. Other coaches include Butler's Brad Stevens, Buzz Williams at Marquette, Jay Wright of Villanova and Fred Hoiberg of Iowa State.

Have you seen this? Film Study of Panthers' 7 sacks
I'm not sure I agree with the assessment of sack 5 but otherwise its a decent job. On a related note, does anyone have a video of the JJ incompletion out of bounds? Or the extended video of the last minute bomb to Roddy? Im doing a little research about Matt Ryan's improvement this season and want to have a look at these plays, specifically how good was the throw to JJ where he (barely) stepped out of bounds. And on the Roddy bomb was Julio open when Matt made the throw (he was when the ball was in the air).

The next 2-4 weeks are going to seal the fate of LMA's tenure in Portland. The Pandora's box, that is his future, at some point needed to be opened and addressed, and several local and national reporters last week found the key. We all knew that LMA's patience through a rebuild while entering his prime, was a delicate situation. However, the time for serious action is now. In a month, we should know whether to keep LMA or deal him later this summer.
The Case for Keeping Him
As a Top 3 PF in the game, LMA should be able to call some shots in his organization. And since Olshey arrived, I sense that there has been a mutual understanding between them on what needs to transpire in order for the team to get back into contention. And if those plans cannot come to fruition within Olshey's first two summers, than LMA will desire to be traded. He's living up to his end of the bargain, and it's highly commendable. We're one summer down, and it netted us a franchise PG who really excels at the PnR, a key component to LMA's game. However, last summer didn't net us much else other than a one year rental of JJ, flashes of great potential followed by oceans of frustration in Meyers Leonard, and the slight overpayment of Nic Batum. The fact we got Lillard is huge, and should be a core piece to LMA wanting to staying and see this out.
Tonight begins Olshey's second quest to acquire the missing pieces to get back to the playoffs. To appease LMA and address the biggest need, he's going to have to find a center. I don't think it's going to happen in free agency. They'll probably sign a vet to help the young guys and play spot minutes and who is cheap, but there just isn't a quality free agent starter who can be relied on for big minutes other than Pekovic, and I don't see Olshey going down the RFA route on a center again. He may, but he can't afford to get burned again. So he's going to have pull of a trade to acquire a center. For LMA to feel he has a competent big along side him, I feel Olshey is going to have to land on of these guys in July:
Other than Blatche and Pek, all of the others will require a trade of a core piece from us. Wes is the easiest target along with Freeland and future considerations. Olshey is going to have to sell this package hard, and hope that one of these guys can man the middle next year and provide the support LMA has desperately needed. Before this happens however, he's going to need to find another big time weapon on the wing. This is difficult, because there are not many available. But SG/SF is an area that if you don't have elite talent, or a roster chock full of above average talent, then you don't contend. Plain and Simple. Matthews and Batum together are not enough. So Olshey is going to have to pull a rabbit out here and hit a home run. That means getting one of these guys through FA or Trade:
Eric Gordon (scary I know, and health is a big ?, but it wasn't long ago that most pegged him as Top 5 shooting guard)
Now, these guys all come with their flaws (which I'm sure I'll get beat up about in the comments), but if you add up the equation of Blazers' need + sheer talent + availability + price + star power, then these players seem to fit the bill. If Olshey finds a way to land one of these guys along with one of the centers mentioned above, then the Blazers will have positioned themselves to get back in business in LMA's window. You could argue that with two years to gel, along with improvement from your young players (especially Dame), you could be fighting for the WCF or more in LMA's contract season. That should pave the way for a max extension.
Lastly, in the case to keep LMA, I bring up intangibles. You would hope that LMA appreciates that this is his team, he's the big dog. The All-Star. There has to be some pride in that. You would hope that in his development now, it's not about the physical part of his game, but rather the competitive and leadership nature you would see from a Tim Duncan or KG. By now he should see how those PFs transformed the attitudes of their teams and demanded excellence. He's at a career stage, with the young core around him, to take a big leap forward in creating that culture. By staying, he can truly establish a legacy that he could not do otherwise by being part of a Big 3 in another market. He could become like a Reggie Miller, who had up and down years with the Pacers, but was loyal,hard working, and almost got his team to a championship. But they were in the hunt for several years in the 90's because Reggie Miller was the franchise rock. Miller bled Pacer Blue and Yellow, and you would hope that LMA could adopt this sentiment for the Blazers. If he stayed here for his career, he would most likely go down as the greatest Blazer ever. I can't blame LMA for wanting to be on a great team elsewhere if we can't build it here, but I'm hoping he realizes that much of this team's success falls on him and his impact on the locker room.
The Case to Trade LMA this Summer
This is really the hard part. First you have to start with what Olshey can accomplish in the next few weeks. If the best he can do is add OJ Mayo, Robin Lopez, Spencer Hawes, Chris Kaman or Jermaine O'Neal, then we are in REAL trouble. To spend our cap space on a few guys that allows us to knock on the door for the #7 or #8 playoff spot, without much upside, then I'm afraid you have to strip this thing down. Immediately. You cannot go into next season knowing you have limited potential for growth.
Once Olshey realizes that there are no "needle movers" within his grasp for a second straight year, he will have no choice but to go after the best package of young assets for LMA. He then will position the team to land a great pick in the vaunted 2014 draft. If he allows a mediocre team led by LMA take the floor next season, he's killing not only the inevitable trade value of LMA, but he's taking us further away from landing one of the top franchise changing rookies. If we could start fresh with Dion Waiters, Tristan Thompson, and Anthony Bennett and know that we should also be in the mix for a top 7 pick next year, then this really might be the best course of action to set forth this August.
We weren't supposed to be in rebuild mode now. We expected to be in Finals mode with Roy/Oden/Aldridge. So while it seems like we're in a continual rebuild, we are, but by force. The fact the LMA represents a living piece to a lost dream, may be enough for him to say privately, "I want out after my contract expires, regardless of how good we are. I just need a change of scenery." If that's true, which I think it very well may be, then we should go in a new direction now instead of later. If we wait, it will handicap our ability to maximize our return assets and prolong the rebuild process.
As long as this team has a clear direction of where it wants to go with a plan on how to get there, I can root for this team. We can't become Charlotte or Sac and do dumb move after dumb move just for the sake of throwing things at the wall and seeing what sticks. I trust Olshey to make every attempt possible to hit it big, but I'm cautiously optimistic about how successful he'll be.
No one, outside of Portland, is talking about us this summer. All of the debates about where FAs are going to land and the best fits for them, run the gamut, but Portland isn't one of them. If OJ Mayo is headlining our summer, that makes me fearful that we are stuck in the NBA's no man's land, with little room to improve without a LMA trade. Which then begs the question, will we ever be able to retain top talent in today's environment? You probably do better by getting a core all closely grouped together in age and complimentary skills ala Roy/Oden/LMA or KD/Westbrook/Harden. In the end, that may be the best recipe for success, and this summer is much ado about nothing. Nothing other than trading your All Star PF to set the course for your future.

Cataracts are the leading cause of treatable blindness in all parts of the world. By the age of 80, more than half of all Americans will have a cataract or will have undergone cataract surgery. A cataract impairs vision when the lens of the eye becomes cloudy, blocking the normal passage of light to the retina. A cataract can develop in one or both eyes, but can't spread from one eye to the other. Learn about the causes, symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of cataracts.
Causes of Cataracts:
Most cataracts develop as part of the normal aging process. As we age, the normally clear lens of the eye slowly becomes cloudy. Over time, this clouding can cover the entire lens, significantly impairing vision. With advanced cataracts, it can become difficult to read or enjoy normal activities.
Symptoms of Cataracts:
When a cataract first begins to develop, you may not notice any changes in your vision. As the cataract grows, however, your vision may become blurred, cloudy, or foggy. The symptoms you experience depend on the type and progression of the cataract you have.
Types of Cataracts:
All cataracts involve a changing of the eye's lens, but there are several types of cataracts. Cataracts usually develop as a result of aging, but sometimes appear early in life. Different portions of the lens may be affected more than others. Eye doctors classify cataracts according to their location and origin.
Diagnosis of Cataracts:
An ophthalmologist or optometrist can diagnose the presence of a cataract by performing a comprehensive eye exam. In order to make a cataract diagnosis, your eye doctor will ask you certain questions and will perform certain tests. The diagnosis of a cataract is the first step toward clear and healthy vision.
Treatment of Cataracts:
Early cataract symptoms may be decreased by wearing stronger eyeglasses or contact lenses, using brighter lights, wearing anti-glare sunglasses, or using magnifying lenses. In advanced cases of cataract, surgery to remove the cloudy lens is the most effective treatment.
Preventing Cataracts:
Certain precautionary measures can be taken during your lifetime to decrease your risk of developing cataracts. Protecting your eyes from UV light and eating foods high in antioxidants are things you can do to help prevent or delay cataracts.

It has been one month since L.C. Burroughs was last seen. His family continues to ask for help.
His family says that on September 26th, Burroughs drove into Millen for breakfast, just like he did every other day. After that, he headed back home, but his family believes something happened when he got there, and they say it could have something to do with people who have been stealing from him for years.
Burroughs has owned a salvage yard in Jenkins County for more than 30 years. He raised his two daughters there, and even though they moved to the Atlanta area, Burroughs continued to operate his business, even at the age of 75.
"He was not just a junk man, he was a father, a father-in-law, a brother, a nephew, a cousin and uncle," his daughter Felicia Steverson said.
Burroughs has been missing for more than a month, and although some people may be giving up hope, his two daughters are not. But that doesn't stop them from asking questions.
"Is he okay? Is he healthy? That is what we are believing God for, that he is healthy, that he is alive, and he will return," his other daughter Janet Greene said.
Family members say the day that L.C. disappeared, his truck was found on his property, the door was left wide open, and the keys were still in the ignition.
Felicia and Janet say there is no way their father just walked off. They believe something happened on his property the day he disappeared. That's because people have been stealing car parts from his junk yard for years.
"Maybe he sensed someone was here stealing, because he said everyone was stealing from him every day. Somebody would steal from him every day. So maybe when he came back, he caught somebody stealing," Steverson said.
Investigators are still trying to figure out what happened to Burroughs. Meanwhile, Felicia and Janet are worried, because they haven't heard anything new from investigators in weeks. And with all the uncertainty about the location of their father, these sisters are certain someone in the community knows something.
"We feel like someone saw something. They saw something and we're just pleading for them to let authorities know. Let the Sheriff's Department know, let the GBI know," Steverson said.
There is $5,000 reward for any information that leads to the location of Burroughs.
If you know anything at all, please call the GBI at 912-871-1121.

According to the AP article on their Big 12 awards, Colt is the leading rusher for the team this year, with 576 yards to this point.
I remember the year before last - Colt's freshman season - if memory serves me correct, it was the first time in a long time that UT had not produced a back with over 1000 yards rushing.
What years have we been under 1k yards rushing?
Do you think it's a sign of the times (only 2 players so far this season in the Big 12 have broken the 1000 yard mark, as opposed to 4 in the SEC) that the conference has tipped the scales in the direction of passing instead of rushing? Interestingly, however, the Big 12's combined yardage for the top 3 is 7850, whereas in the SEC it's 7461.
Does it point to dearth of good rushers in the league, period? Or is it an issue of o-lines, or even o-line coaching?
I'd love to hear some thoughts on UT's pretty poor showing in the run game (Baylor has outrun us by more than 200 yards) this year, as well as thoughts on the general state of the run in the conference compared to other conferences.

Sunday Commentary: Masculinism, Part 1 – by Godless Teen
February 10, 2013 in General, Law, Morality, Sunday Commentary
I've been an observer of this new "movement" known as masculinism this week. It's practically the mirror of feminism, just that it advocates equal rights for… Men. Because men, they're the real victims.
One particular posting I saw by the Facebook page blogger "Quin" bothered me. Here's how it went:
You're right. Men don't need rights.
It's not like their rapes are societally and legally ignored even more than women's are, to the extent that the FBI doesn't recognize Rape by Envelopment as rape. It's not like male rape, especially in prison, is often considered a joke in the West, and men can be tried for homosexuality if they admit they were raped by other men in certain parts of the world. It's not like there's bias in the courts against them, such as longer sentences and more convictions, and in court cases it's nearly impossible for a divorcing dad to get their kids away from an unfit mother. It's not like in France, it is illegal for fathers to get a paternity test at risk of a 15,000 Euro fine and a maximum of a year in jail. It's not like mandatory Selective Service in the US is still legal, and the gov't could start a draft on Monday and start conscripting men – and only men, despite women being allowed in combat. It's not like laws and policies about domestic abuse basically amount to "assume the man is the bad guy", meaning that male abuse victims find it nearly impossible to get their female partner arrested, regardless of damage. It's not like the vast majority of DV shelters exclude men, despite multiple studies finding women initiate abuse at equal or greater rates than men (literally hundreds of them). It's not like lawyers tell men that they can't leave the house to get away from an abusive female partner if they plan to divorce her, because the judge will use it as evidence of him "abandoning" the kids (but not vice versa). It's not like society tells men to suppress their pain, to risk and sacrifice their lives to support and protect their family, and make up the majority of suicide victims and the majority of workplace injuries. It's not like the UK says it's only legally rape when men do it, including when the victim is under 13. It's not like the vast majority of victims of violence throughout history, both in and out of war, have been men, often being forced to fight and die in wars by law or force or both.
It is like that.
But those are all "petty annoyances", right?
I do find it interesting, Noelle, how you don't say MRAs are wrong, but that they "shouldn't exist". That the existence of a movement that thinks men are oppressed in any significant degree and works to end it shouldn't exist. That these people who disagree with you shouldn't exist, and should be silenced with all due haste. Not shown to be wrong, or publicly exposed as wrong, but just trolled and drowned out.
And I wonder what you, and your lot, are so afraid of people learning.
-realmfighter on tumblr
Let's take this apart one piece at a time.
…to the extent that the FBI doesn't recognize Rape by Envelopment as rape.
One of the things that bugs me about this movement is that, yeah, they have legitimate points- it's just that they bare almost no grounding in the real world. While I was surfing the internet, I found one woman in particular had quite a nice response to this kind of claim:
I care very much about male victims. What I don't care for is the conflating of statistics, and constant "whatabouthtemnz" on women's forums where they are discussing the very real, global problem of male violence towards women, which is not *quantitatively* equal to female on male violence.
Let's be clear: when a man and woman run into each other late at night in a dark parking garage, the woman has a lot more reason to be afraid. I am sick of all the MRA's who literally deny that reality, stating the man should be more afraid because…because…the woman, who is, say 5'4″ and 112 pounds will overpower him, throw him to the ground, drug him, hogtie him, force-feed him Viagra, stimulate his penis until erect, force herself onto him until he is torn and bloody, and leave him with a few broken ribs and black eyes.
For the man who has experienced ANY version of "envelopment rape," which appears to be the crux of the latest MRA outcry of victimhood, I have all the empathy in the world. But please do not say this happens to men AS MUCH as rape happens to women, all around the world. It is patently ridiculous.
If you DO feel men are rampantly raped, step away from your keyboard, march, protest, and raise money for your own safe shelters…just as women did. Stop asking "where can we go to be safe from women." Build it YOURSELVES.
I completely agree. Is it horrible? Yeah, it is. But to act like it's even close to as significant an issue as female rape is is… Insane. It just doesn't make sense, and the statistics reflect this.
It's not like male rape, especially in prison, is often considered a joke in the West…
This isn't so much a violation of human rights as it is an refusal to accept the fact that, since people are granted ownership of their minds and ideas, they are allowed to make jokes about prison rape. Is it stupid? Yeah. Is it irrational? Yeah. Is it a violation of human rights? No.
Not to mention: the government has taken the issue seriously. For one thing, they released the Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003 in an attempt to reduce prison rape, for one thing. Also, another study showed that, as a matter of fact, prison rape is yet another rather rare event.
…and men can be tried for homosexuality if they admit they were raped by other men in certain parts of the world. [my emphasis added]
You know, I don't doubt that. In fact, I don't doubt that for a second. But, you know, I thought this was a movement to establish male rights in the US, not in the Middle East for crying out loud. The many theocracies in the Middle East violate human rights in many, many ways. Assuming that Quin's above claim is true, it's still one of a great deal of ethical issues that we face when confronting the Middle Eastern theocracies and dictatorships.
Not to mention, we could always talk about women's rights violations in certain areas of the world…
That's all I've got time for today, folks. I'll check back in tomorrow to rebut more of Quin's claims.
