I appreciate the argument that we should aim for the lottery and give our youngins the lion's share of the minutes. OKC is a great example of stinking it up, getting PT for Durant and others and drafting great thanks to high lotto picks. I, too, feel it is very important that we find out what we have in Favors, Burks, Hayward and The Underturkey. However, I wanted to bring a different point of view. I really think Ty, KOC and management are doing a great job right now. Here's why:
1. The youngsters are getting decent minutes. I'd like to see Burks and Kanter get a few more, but it's not like they are all riding the pine. Favors gets 22 mins/game, Hayward gets 25 mins, Kanter gets 13, Burks gets nearly 11. Big Al gets 35 mins a game (which is a lot), Millsap gets 28, Harris gets 26. Other than that, no one gets more than 20 outside of Hayward and Favors. 13 for Kanter and 11 for Burks are significant minutes the way this season is scheduled. It's not like the Jazz are playing the vets 40 and the youngsters 5.
2. What's more valuable for developing young talent: 20-25 mins for a team contending for a playoff spot or 30-35 mins for a team trying to get the best lotto position? There are a lot of assumptions there. Maybe the Jazz would win more games playing the younger guys. Maybe the Jazz won't remain competitive and in playoff contention. However, I don't think anyone here can say that they know better than the Jazz coaching staff what lineups give the Jazz the best shot at winning and I think that playing on a competitive team for 20-25 mins is more valuable than playing 30 mins in a bunch of blowout losses. There is no substitution for being on a winning team!
3. I think we are getting an idea of what we have in our young four. I would also like to see how Favors does in Big Al's spot (getting that many touches and shots). We've seen glimpses of the dominant player Favors can be. However, these guys are still barely even 20 (or not even that!). How the heck are we supposed to know how good they can be at that age? We all see the potential, for sure. It just seems a little premature to say that we need to find out what we have RIGHT NOW...THIS SEASON...IMMEDIATELY...at the expense of the season (again, making the assumptions outline above). I'll tell you how good they can be- Favors can be Alonzo Mourning with better offense, Kanter can lead the league in rebounding and score 15 a game on putbacks and 15 foot jumpers, Burks can be the scoring guard we've always wanted and Gordon can be a jack of all trades that does the little things to make a team a champion. I believe that our young core can be the start of a championship caliber team! Getting them to the post season this year will only help their development.
4. For every OKC, there are 10 Minnesota teams. Multiple trips to the lottery does not a championship team make. If we can get more all star talent through the draft, GREAT! However, I don't think that we should sacrifice the season for the chance to luck out in the draft.
I apologize for the novel. I just have had these thought floating around in my brain and wanted to put them down on paper (paper?). Personally, I am super excited with the way things are going this year. I feel like everyone--even Big Al--is making progress and we are, at least right now, proving doubters wrong and in playoff contention! All the while, our youngins are getting a bunch of MEANINGFUL minutes and we get to watch some great games where we win more than we lose.

These cars have completely tainted the M badge. This would be like Merc making a A-Class AMG version.
Um, no, it would be like Merc making an AMG powered M-Class.
Hold on, they do!
No they haven't… and based upon demand buyers don't agree with you.
Yes there is a AMG powered M class – 2009 MERCEDES ML63 AMG with a 6.2Litre V8 fitted, with 375Kw and 630Nm
Yeah Mercedes already sold out their soul, but BMW was meant to keep true to their roots.
They have kept true to their roots – you're being silly
Mmmm… X6 M…
I read an upgraded version of this engine will be in the new M5… potentially sub 4 second 0-100 time?
Blah blah how do dare the M division diverse and make M badged 4wd vehicles!
Porsche has been doing it for years and no one complains. Why? Because it brings the company much more money as they are highly desired!
All the M division is doing is broadening their brand and it's a wise business move.
Couldn't agree more. The 911 didn't falter when the Cayenne was introduced, the car is still the most popular sportscar >$200k in Australia by a country mile. Too many people allow themselves to forget that cars are made by companies.
what is a the point of a performane 4×4 :\
High driving position and the fact people won't expect you to be as fast as an Aston Martin. haha.
there is not purpose, they just make it cause they can. why am i the only one that swerves in and out of cones when there's road works… because i can, and it's fun
I too think that these cars taint the M badge, but it's not because they're SUVs (I don't think any car should be judged on body style), it's because they're apparently not particularly good.
If they had actually managed to make these cars handle as well as an M3 let alone go as fast as one, I'd be impressed. However, go and read some reviews for them – all the ones I've read state the same thing – these cars are no more than faster versions of already impressive vehicles except for the addition of an intolerable ride. Not to mention a tacky body kit.
The X5 and the X6 are brilliant cars. They seem to take their weight and height in their stride to leave you with two SUVs that handle as well as the 3 Series, but once you add that M badge you start something completely new. The expectation goes from a car that handles really well to a car that handle like a sports car. And I don't think BMW have quite gotten their technology to that point yet.
So, once again, I too think that these cars taint the M badge. But it's because they aren't what an M car should be. An M car should have Porsche like reflexes and be easy to live with. Body roll and what has been described as "an intolerable ride" by at least two reviews I've read does not equal Porsche like reflexes and ease of living. After all, you're probably not taking your X5 to a track, so you will have to put up with that ride.
Besides, the new Cayenne is just around the corner and I somehow doubt that Porsche will let BMW have the better car.
Very well said, Alex. You're exactly right!
Hear, hear
This monstrosity spits in the face of M-car tradition, it is nothing more than brand dilution and BMW is selling the soul of the great M badge.
Does BMW simply not understand that the M badge is one of the last remaning badges that actually means something to people? Its got such a massive reputation that its built up since the e30 M3, and now it culminates in this horrid mass of metal and leather and plastic.
Just look at that 2nd last photo, it looks as though it simply wallows over the pavement without a contemplation of being nothing more than a oversprung barge with this false sense, and may I also say utterly pathetic attempt, of sportiness and excitement.
What ticks me off is that I'm afraid that in 15-20 years time, its going to become a bit of a cult car, kind of like the Rambo Lambo (The awesome LM002).
I like them, but they scream vulgarity (but less so than an ML63 AMG…). These will be very popular in the Middle East…
Completely fail to get the point of these. If you can afford this monstrosity, you can afford a better performance car for road and/or track AND an SUV for your trophy wife (or your trophy toyboy, equal opportunity after all). Who want to drive this anywhere, for that kind of money?
Yeah, we should all be driving one of these… http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/12/09/tata-nano-hybrid-and-hot-rod-coming-to-market/?hpw
As quick as this is, it would not touch and it would be thrased by the fastest/quickest SUV on the planet, the mighty Italian Fornasari [goggle] it.
Fornasari MORE power, QUICKER times, HIGHER top speed.
win x win x win
Powered by the mighty and simple Chev V8 [sure its tuned up a bit, but no stress donk]
"Luxury runs fast" nice motto!
haha the pompous, indignant, stuck-up replies are hilarious
BMW M GmbH decide what M means, not you – get over yourselves. These vehicles are brilliant – a mere second slower around philip island than an M3 after only a couple of laps in the hands of brabham despite their weight and centre of gravity.
Yeap, and the Forsari would lap it if they had a race…
"Luxury Runs Fast"
A coupe never had such capacity. An activity vehicle, never such adrenaline. The X6 Sports Activity Coupe has broken all barriers and found itself in a class all its own.

Energy is taking over the State Fair Center the next couple of days in Minot.
The Bakken oil workers and Oil Service Expo gets underway Tuesday morning and has hundreds of businesses all playing a big part in the show.
Shaun Sipma has more.
Energy is a big draw in the national business climate.
Which is why it's not surprising to hear that more than 280 Businesses from 37 states and Canada have come together for the first ever Bakken Oil Workers and Oil Service Expo in Minot.
(Michelle Williams, Bakken Expo Producer) "We're getting volumes of calls people that are just finding out about the show but we're in a sold out status at this point."
Sold out of booth space.
Organizers expect lots of foot traffic through these halls the next few days.
(Michelle Williams, Bakken Expo Producer) We really are aiming to create a lot of opportunities for networking and volume business, as well as creating opportunities for people to find jobs."
The intrigue of the Bakken, the energy, the development is enough for many business to see what opportunities are here and how to get their foot in the door.
(Joe Jakes, Anixter - Plymouth, MN) "The real challenge for companies like us is, okay how do we really get out there and try to make the contacts and work with some of these companies."
For others who are established, the continued influx of new businesses is opportunity to expand.
(Brock Holbert, Pacific & Main - Williston & Mandan) "People are still learning about the oil industry and they use these expos and they learn more and more about it."
And there's a lot to learn about every aspect of oil and energy that has the nation buzzing about Bakken.

Lee County- Martindale Drive in Callaway Lakes can be a busy road for a neighborhood street.
"It's providing access from North Doublegate all the way down into Dougherty County," said Lee County Administrator Langford Holbrook.
Sometimes there's a problem with speeders. So Lee County has bumped up the effort to slow them down.
"Folks either love 'em or hate 'em," Holbrook said. "That seems to be how it goes."
You get plenty of warning to reduce your speed because there's signs posted to bring your attention to the bump ahead. If you're going the speed limit, it's a smooth ride.
"But if you get to far in excess of the speed limit then it does, you do notice them and want to slow down."
This bump won't be here for long, because if it was, the state wouldn't pay to resurface the road.
"But that's the key," Holbrook said. "You just don't want a permanent thing there or DOT will not resurface that road for you."
Albany neighborhoods have the same problems with speeders.
"It's a common complaint I get as a city commissioner," said Albany City Commissioner Bob Langstaff.
Especially around East and West Doublegate Drives. Some commissioners have asked about speed bumps, but they can't risk losing state money.
"The Georgia Department of Transportation has an unwritten rule that they will not repave any streets under the LARP program, which we depend on heavily in the city of Albany."
Lee County says it won't be a problem as long as they're portable. So they'll keep moving them around to bring speeders down to the limit.

What is in this article?:
- Food Hubs Help Solve Local Sourcing Issues
- Not so common
Consolidated approach delivers reliability, consistency and transparency for operators looking to boost their healthy dining programs.
Not so common
Common Market has its own 20,000-sq.ft. warehouse in North Philadelphia, including 100,000-cu.ft. of cold storage space. It operates three refrigerated trucks that pick up from producer locations and rural aggregation points.
Serving on Common Market's board is Tina Rodriguez, who is also CFO and general counsel of SAGE Dining Services, a contract management company that serves the independent school and college markets across the U.S. and now in Canada as well.
"One of our school clients had been involved with a Philadelphia area business officer initiative trying to find ways to get schools to buy more local, and that led to our looking at Common Market as a potential supplier," Rodriguez says of her initial exposure to the organization, which was only about a year old at the time. "We determined that before we could use them, they had to secure third-party certification with regard to food safety."
It's a complex process to get third-party certification, and can be daunting for a small organization with limited resources or in-house expertise, Rodriguez explains. "Among the things you need are training programs, training modules, documentation. It's not just that you have great processes but that they are verifiable."
Rodriguez joined Common Market's board in 2009 to help them get through this process. They not only did so but have been able to renew the certifications as needed since and the organization is now at the point where it is able to assist the farmers it works with to ensure their practices are compliant with applicable Good Agricultural Practices.
Third-party certification has allowed Common Market to expand into the institutional market and its cast of large volume buyers like healthcare organizations, colleges and school districts. Third-party certification is required for any vendor wishing to do business with most of the entities in these segments.
That also means that Common Market does business with not only SAGE but its competitors as well. Not only is Rodriguez unbothered by this, but she's delighted.
"That's the goal!" she says. "The goal is to get local food everywhere!"

Peace Hospice Care looking for volunteer gardeners
2:10pm Friday 28th February 2014 in News By Charlotte Ikonen, Reporter
A host of golden daffodils will be blooming in spring thanks to the volunteer gardeners at Peace Hospice Care.
They have been busy planting thousands of donated tulips, daffodils and crocus bulbs at the front of the hospice building and in the courtyard garden.
The hospice needs some extra green fingered volunteers to help the gardens grow. They need people that can maintain flowerbeds, and tend the patient gardens.
The Hospice Inpatient Unit is designed so that each room opens directly into a mini garden.
Peace Hospice care chief executive Sue Plummer said: "We are proud to be able to offer patients the space and peace of a well tended garden.
"Many patients and families comment on how much they enjoy the smell of the flowers or the sight of natural flowers and plants growing outside their rooms.
"Maintaining our gardens takes a dedicated team and we are keen to find extra volunteers who can give time to our gardens."
If you would like to join, call the volunteering team on 01923 330346.

I think the note on TR's 'best career season' on the FP put this in perspective for me.
The proverbial 'eye test' tells us the DAL Oline is middling to below average - our Sacks Surrendered total bears this out - Cowboys rank 14 in the league(higher ranking the better).
Conversely, DAL ranks in the Top 10 for sacks, somewhat belying the 'eyeball test' and conventional wisdom the Cowboys don't generate nearly enough pressure.
Disclaimer - this is very high level, does not include, Hurries, Knock Downs, Pressures, etc. However, it should be at least indicative at a high level.
So, here's my dilemma - if our OL is so poor, how can Tony Romo be so good? If you make the case for his escapability limiting sacks, I contend that only reinforces the point - Sack total would indicate the pressure is even greater - would 5-10 more sacks really impact his results that much?
And where is the correlation between our Top 10 Sack Total and Bottom 10 Pass D? I did a rudimentary analysis of Passer Rating for all Defenses against Sacks and the relationship is not conclusive. Agree a full analysis - assigning a relative point value to Pressures, Hurries and Knock Downs with Sacks into an overall 'Pressure' stat would be more comprehensive and should be over several seasons, but I simply don't know where those stats exist, nor really have the time to do it in any short order.
Many posters are insisting that fixing the Pass D requires an upgrade to the Pass Rush - this is intuitive and completely logical. Many Defenses are built, successfully around this concept. For the most part, Wade's successful D's for all their vaunted pressure, were inconsistent for opposing Passer rating(2009 - 7th in Sacks, 20th in OPR; 2007 - 3rd/5th) .
In the final analysis, with such a demonstrably sub-par OLine, how did Tony Romo have his best statistical year ? Granted, I could be reading this all wrong.

Charred remains of a human body found in car in Cradley Heath
7:26pm Sunday 11th May 2014 in News
THE charred remains of a human body has been found in a burnt out car in Cradley Heath.
Police officers were alerted to the gruesome find near Cradley Heath railway station at 9.20pm last night (Saturday) following a call from the fire service.
The fire was so fierce the identity of the body is yet to be established and a forensic post mortem is scheduled for tomorrow (Monday).
Detective Inspector Warren Hines, from Force CID, is leading the investigation.
He said: "This was an intense fire which all but destroyed the Peugeot 306.
"Once fire-fighters extinguished the flames they discovered a body inside the car.
"At this time we are yet to establish the person's identity or the cause of their death which is being treated as unexplained."
He added: "A number of people have been spoken with and local enquiries has been conducted. CCTV footage is also being trawled."
Anyone with information should call police on 101.
People who don't want to speak to police officers directly can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 who will pass on the information anonymously.

Those who suffer from cedar allergies had better beware. Pollination is about to begin.
That means many people will start sneezing, sniffling and suffering from itchy eyes and headaches. It is called cedar fever.
However, people do not have to suffer.
Looking across the landscape in Central Texas it is pretty hard not to see mountain cedar trees. These native plants can cause some pretty ugly symptoms for those who suffer from cedar allergies.
Dr. John Villacis with the Austin Diagnostic Clinic says it's just a matter of days before cedar pollen begins to fly through the air.
Cedar season is usually between right around the third week of December until the second week of February," Villacis said.
There is still a little bit of time before cedar season. Dr. Villacis said that means people have a few days to take some steps that could make you feel a little better this cedar season.
"What I've been telling patients right now is they should start the medication early so they should be on their nasal sprays, they should be on the antihistamines now. Even though the levels aren't that high right now, go ahead and start it and just continue until about the second week of February."
Mountain cedar, which is actually part of the juniper family, will be the culprit behind more than half of the patients Dr. Villacis sees over the next few months.
However, the allergy specialist adds it's important to know the difference between allergies and other illnesses that often occur during this time of year, such colds and flu.
"If you're having fever, if you're having thicker green mucus from the nose, if you're having a sore throat that may be more of an infection versus allergy."
Other tips that may help alleviate the allergy suffering include changing your air filter and bathing your pets, especially if they go outside. They can carry the cedar pollen back into your home.
If you suspect you're suffering from allergies, there are several treatments available, from over the counter medications to prescriptions and allergy shots...
It is recommended you consult your doctor before beginning a treatment plan.

Douglas Smith, national sales manager for a solar panel manufacturer, switched his income protection and life cover into his superannuation fund about six months ago when he changed to a new super provider.
Smith, 40, who lives in Sydney with his wife Kirstie Wallace and daughter Harris, 2, says: "I took out income protection insurance to protect the family's lifestyle against any incapacities which may prevent me from working and earning, including not having to sell our house."
He'd previously held his income protection and life cover separately from super but says he decided to move both policies inside his super fund after taking advice.
"Premiums are paid for out of existing superannuation contributions for cash flow reasons [to make mortgage repayments easier] but I am also considering additional pre-tax salary sacrifice contributions," he says.
The couple are expecting their second child in October.
"The other issue my wife and I considered was trust. You need to trust an insurer will be able to pay a claim if and when you make one."

This is a guide to the features of our website. All of which will continue to expand and grow to best meet the needs of our online users. Let's begin with the enca.com homepage. Did you know that you can see a "snap-shot" of the day's forecast without even leaving eNCA.com ? 13 of the largest cities/towns are just a click away.
Click on the weather widget of the enca.com homepage (upper right hand corner of the site) to navigate directly to our new weather portal. Alternatively, you can select the "Weather" tab on the homepage. This brings you to the following online weather webpage:
From here, you can see current conditions and a detailed hourly & 7-day forecast for your specific location. Don't see your town? Look for this search bar (just above the 7-day forecast) and type in any city/location in the world to get your latest forecast:
Fast Fact: Did you know that our forecasts for South Africa are created by our in-house team of meteorologists & climatologists? This ensures you (the user) the highest quality and most accurate forecast available because raw computer model data doesn't recognise the various micro-climates taking place throughout our unique country. You can also be confident that what you see on TV is what you see online within our website. It's all thanks to the seamless broadcast + online integration software we use to avoid confusing our viewers and online visitors. We want only the best for you.
Do you like to track the weather? Would you like to see some of the computer models that the eNCA weather team uses to create a forecast? Click on the "Interactive Map" tab to see this:
This first for South Africa, allows you to pause, animate and track current and future weather. All weather variables are available here including; Temperature, Sky Conditions, Rain Totals, "Feels Like" Temperature, Humidity, Wind Speed, Snow Totals and even Ice Totals. If you want to see current weather (Satellite Imagery) moving across the globe, simply select the "Now" tab at the top of the Interactive Map:
Fast Fact: You can even zoom into street-level at your specific location to see the progression of the day's weather. Use our interactive map feature and scroll "in" and "out" with the wheel of your mouse. Alternatively, you can zoom in/out with the "+" and "-" tab found within the map itself.
Not convinced that this is the weather website for you? Check out our "Hour-By-Hour" feature that allows you to hover over any weather variable and simply displays the information for you on a 48-hour timeline. It will breakdown the specifics of that forecast for any location in the world. Check out the image below:
Missed last night's weather bulletin on e.TV or eNCA? Don't worry…your latest presented weather forecast can be found under the "Latest Video Forecast" tab. Here's a screen shot of exactly where to look:
If you're reading this blog post, you are probably already aware of our "Weather Wise" blog that keeps you in the know with regards to anything and everything science. Look for this header under the "Opinion" tab of the enca.com homepage:
Are you a weather enthusiast? Are you frustrated because other weather websites in South Africa don't provide you with the information you require? Look for our "Current Forecast Maps" tab for South Africa. Here you will find animations of the latest Jetstream winds (driving force of many of our storm systems), beach/tidal information, windstream analysis, synoptic maps, and rainfall probabilities.

Mobile Phones in a Communist World
I do not know what board to post this in, but since I frequent the Android Army more than the Apple Core or MS Tribe, I thought I should start here.
Imagine if Communism hadn't failed (some may argue that it hasn't since China still proves to be a great example), and Capitalism was done with. What would have been of our technology?
When iOS 5 was announced last year, everything was about how twitter was integrated into the very core of the operating system, yet there was no mention of Facebook integration or the lack of it. We saw how Apple controlled what we shared and with whom we shared it. Microsoft's purchase of Skype (not the best example) and Android's poor integration with Facebook (come on, HaxSync is only a workaround; it isn't half as solid as the G+ integration) are solid examples how we are forced to make choices. There sure are work-arounds and replacements but there isn't one Universal Correct Choice.
This led me to dream up an imaginary world. One where we had no choices but had only the Best Option. One where we could only buy one kind of device. Don't get me wrong. The device on offer will have the best of everything. Like in a capitalist world, there will be a number of groups working on developing the ideal device, but the final product will be an amalgam of all the best features of all those individual devices and they come in 3 sizes- S, M and L and you chose one depending on the size of your hand (no more "4.7" is too big! 3.5" is perfect!"). And who makes that choice for us? Well, I haven't thought of this thoroughly. But, we do have autonomous institutions like the FCC and PEGI (for games) that operate quite well. So something on those lines that ensures that the final device has the best processor, best screen, best battery, best apps, best UX.
Every group submits their ideas and only the ones that are approved are implemented. The Design and Manufacturing are two different responsibilities that are independent of one another. So every group that submits designs/ideas gets paid and the one group whose designs are chosen get more money than the rest and they all go back to develop for the next annual device upgrade.
So, when I am in the market to buy myself THE mobile phone, I don't have to worry about it not having the best Facebook integration or having to adjust with low quality apps or a poor camera.
The entire idea isn't fool proof. Also, this is not meant to be an alternative to how the industry should operate. This is the description of an alternate timeline on Earth. Since having a lot of choices hasn't solved our problems yet, will not having choices work?
How would you like it if this were the world we were living in? Feel free to point out any holes in my theory or add on to it or suggest changes.

Not at all. I know many women who struggle with fat loss. It's our culture and lifestyle. My male friends who get fat seem to just give up and stay fat although some stay strong as well. Maybe a male genetic thing.

I love your tanlines girl...
Saturday Im running my very first 5k. I cant wait. Very very excited! Ive tried this a few different times with a friend and each time they have backed out. This time I said screw it and decided to do it by myself and for myself! The self satisfaction of finally completing this goal is going to be amazing!!! I get pumped up just talking about it!!! A few of my friends wanted to be at the finish line but I asked them not to attend. I know me...I'll end up crying when Im done due to being overwhelmed with joy that I finally accomplished this feat! Im just a big o' sappy baby like that!! :-D
Last week I received my diet from Mr. South Carolina (bodybuilding champ). He's on my FB page and I met him once at a bbing competition. He's followed my progress, was impressed with my dedication/hard work, and out of the blue offered to help me.
Eating has been spot on with the exception of a small over indulgence of macadamia nuts earlier in the week. My level of confidence and determination are out the roof right now!!! Heck, I wasnt even tempted by the red velvet cake they brought into work today. For me.....THAT'S FRIGGIN HUGE!!!! :)
Monday Daniel is going to look at my weight and workout and see what needs to be changed. Im so excited it's hard to contain my enthusiasm. Im so grateful for his guidance. Im expecting spectacular results!!!

I'm SO excited for your 5k! Accomplishing that deserves a 'big sappy baby' response. :)
How awesome your diet coach offered to help you! Great work sticking to the plan, I'm excited to follow your continued progress. :)
Thanks everyone! Things are going fantastic. Everyday is a high!
Ran the 5k this morning. Was freezing cold, 46 degrees at 7am. Brrrr...
I didnt come in last (Yayyyyy!!!) and I shaved 4 minutes off my practice time from last week while on the treadmill. That means I actually ran 2 minutes faster than my goal for the race! All in all it was a great day!
I bought a cute picture frame to display the bib. It has room for 4 pictures. I decided I'll do 3 more 5k's just so I can fill the picture frame! lol That's a valid incentive, right??? :)
Diet is going FANTASTIC! Today is cheat day and all Ive had is an iced tall vanilla latte. Thought about scarfing down a bag of Oreos but when I picked them up off the shelf this feeling of disgust came over me. So....I think I'll have sushi tonight and call it good :)
Have a great weekend...

Congrats on the 5k BBB. My wife is training for her first 5k next month. She's never been a runner all her life (she's 30) and for years never believed she could actually do it. She comes back after almost every training run literally in tears (good tears) at what she's able to do now. So I know how big an accomplishment what you're doing is. Keep it up :)
"Ab"solutely amazing!!!!
Things are coming along folks!!!!!
Keep at it, you look great!
Ive been sticking to a contest diet 100%. It's awesome!! In two weeks Ive lost 2" around my waist!! I am now finally the size of a normal fat person!!! I am focused and driven to compete in a show. Would like to compete in physique in November....but there's another show after the first of the year that I know I could do. Either way, Im getting ripped and that all that matters!!! :)
Loving life,

ETF performance: Weight isn't everything
When it comes to choosing which ETF is right for you, one of the top considerations of many investors is how exactly the fund's underlying index is constructed. Selection and weighting methodologies vary drastically from fund to fund, with the differences often making significant impacts on bottom line returns. Traditional market capitalization weightings were once the only game in town, but in recent years alternative-weighting methodologies have become more popular among investors who find flaws in a strategy that gives the most weight to the biggest companies. And while there are numerous alternative methodologies, the most popular among investors is perhaps the equal-weighted approach, which seeks to mitigate the downside effects of a fund being dependent on only a handful of stocks. A comparison of traditional cap-weighted and equal-weighted ETFs reveals some factors investors should be mindful of.

Bellator 109 competitor Doug Marshall always comes to fight, rarely seeing the judges in his 24 fight career. The California native has 16 finishes from 18 wins, 12 by KO and four submissions, and will challenge for Alexander Shlemenko's Middleweight crown at 109.
The former WEC Heavyweight/Light-Heavyweight boss also likes to talk trash ahead of his fights. Check out what 'The Rhino' had to say when talking to MMAMania.com regarding his scrap with 'Storm':
"I got here by just believing … believing in myself and my team. A lot of people looked past me. Not even a lot of people – everybody looked past me. And now I'm standing right here at the highest point of my career, the pinnacle, the top, about to become the Bellator world champion. Everybody can just eat their words. No! Everybody can eat s**t, as far as I'm concerned."
"I'm going to prove everybody wrong against Shlemenko. Everyone already thought I was the underdog before and now I'm still the underdog in this fight. Against who? Some f****n' Russian that ain't got no power? That looked slow and gassed in his last fight? People are crazy, bro."
Marshall certainly has a way with words, but he is correct in his assessment of Shlemenko's last fight. 'Storm' looked uncharacteristically slow in his latest bout at Bellator 98 title defence against Brett Cooper; a man that Marshall smashed in one round at Bellator 95.
"The fans can expect to see fireworks baby, like the Fourth of July. Then they'll see that beautiful American flag waving in the wind with me standing right by it, with that beautiful gold belt around my waist. What? Where's Alexander Shlemenko? He must have been tired because he's sleeping in the middle of the cage. I don't know why he's laying there like that. But The Rhino will have gold around his waist and the red, white and blue wrapped around him. The Rhino is the victor, by knockout."
Although he may come across as very crass, I'm sure 'The Rhino' is a nice guy once you get to know him. Although his opponent at tonight's Bellator 109 main event may be unfortunate enough to meet the side of Marshall that knocks people silly.

Dad used to tell me, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." Coach would say, "No pain, no gain." And one teacher would remark, "We learn best through adversity."
The Bible plainly states that all men have sinned (Romans 3:23). Sin, though not inherited, has been a plague of each generation of mankind. Each individual sins and is responsible for their sins.
There is no doubt that we are living in some difficult times. Many are struggling to make ends meet. Many are wondering if there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Sunday was an exciting time, and those at St. Luke Missionary Baptist Church are celebrating a great accomplishment in the life of their church.
This week has been beautiful, and I think spring is finally here to stay. We have been fooled before with a cold front sneaking its way back in. Well, speaking of being fooled, Tuesday was April Fool's Day where many a folk were hoaxed or tricked. Most of this was all done in fun and brought much-needed laughter.
Well, did you survive April Fool's Day? Or are you one of those who pulls the pranks on others?
Often, the love of Jesus is not seen in the lives of his creation.
"Jesus said, 'Take ye away the stone.' Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, 'Lord, by this time he stinketh, for he hath been dead four days.' Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, 'Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.' And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, 'Lazarus, come forth.' And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus ...
The older I get, the more I pay attention to my surroundings. I notice the beauty of flowers, trees, stars and even little details.
Spring has come. It's obvious on the calendar. We already have moved the clocks forward for daylight saving time. And where we live, trees and flowers are blooming all over.
Last week, we looked at Isaiah 1:18 and saw that God was willing to give his people an opportunity to come to their senses and turn back to him. Those people failed to heed God's warnings. Surely, man can learn from their mistakes (Romans 15:4).
The August Birth Month Committee of Bryan Neck Missionary Baptist Church will hold a fundraiser dinner from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. April 18-19 at the church in Richmond Hill.
What are you fasting for? What are you praying for? In what do you have faith?
This week around the world, and even in our neck of the woods, St. Patrick's Day was celebrated. Waters were colored green, people marched in parades and a lot of partying went on.
This week, I finished reading a most interesting book about the lives of Billy and Ruth Graham.
Whether we're talking about the children of Israel during biblical times or present-day Christianity, mankind has a tendency to have problems when things always go well.
Last week, our church elected three young men to serve as deacons within our congregation.
In all wars, victory is the ultimate goal.
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. Against such, there is no law. And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another" (Galatians 5:13-25).
In a lot of movies, the words "The End" appear after the last scene, signifying that the movie is over.
One of the leading causes of divorce (or any other disagreement or estrangement) is the lack of communication.
Mankind needs to thank God for the fact that Jesus came to Earth, died at Calvary and rose again the third day. Without the blood of Christ, no man could be saved from sin. The debt of sin is too great for man to repay, but Christ paid the debt for all men.
The Apostle Paul was the greatest missionary to walk the earth, but always was having to deal with persecution.
On Sunday evenings in recent weeks, I have been teaching on the topic of spiritual gifts at my church. I believe it is one of the most important topics facing the church today.

Himmatwala is an Ajay Devgn starrer, with south star Tamannah opposite him. The film is a remake of director K. Raghavendra Rao's 1983 film...
"Movie review: Himmatwala is for the masses!"
It may not be the kind of film you enjoy, but 'Himmatwala' is an entertainer nevertheless. Muster all the courage you have and book a ticket.
"'Himmatwala' review: It's deathly dull with puerile humour"
It must take a special kind of skill to remake a mediocre film like 1983's 'Himmatwala' without even marginally improving on it.
"Himmatwala is hugely disappointing!"
HIMMATWALA was the film that gave an impetus to the trend of remaking South Indian films in the 1980s.
"A film meant for 'himmatwalas'!"
As the film opens with Sonakshi Sinha grooving to a disco number doing a Parveen Babi and Sridevi, you will certainly be left to anticipate a typical...
"Himmatwala is painfully overlong"
Director Sajid Khan may lack the courage to take risks but he is a very optimistic man indeed. He believes what worked in 1983 will click in 2013...
"Music review: Himmatwala is a ear-popping listen"
With two remakes and two item songs, only three out of five hit the mark, but we'd still turn those up loud on the radio.

Plans for Nvidia cards in macbook air?
Feb 6, 2008, 11:16 AM
Hi everyone! Does anyone know if macbook air will have integrated nvidia cards in the future? Thanks!

No one except Steve Jobs and Jonathan Ive and perhaps some Apple engineers know this. Maybe there's a way to shoehorn a dedicated video processor with its own memory into MBA v2, but it would be all speculation at this point.
Feb 6, 2008, 11:23 AM
I wouldn't expect it before the MacBook gets them, although it's certainly possible (very improbable though, both from a size and from a heat standpoint).
Feb 6, 2008, 11:36 AM
If only they would put dual overclocked GeForce 8800 Ultras in the MBA... Then all the X3100 naysayers would hush up. :(
Mar 6, 2008, 05:58 PM
i really want one of these for linux. once they can shove dedicated graphics in this thing, i'm sold. [dueling banjos]apple sure does make some of the purtiest electronics i tell you what.[/dueling banjos]

Coming soon, the MBA Tardis! :D
Mar 6, 2008, 07:07 PM
I agree it would be nice to have dedicated graphics. But I don't think we'll ever see it.
The market for the MBA does not include users of heavy duty graphics, that's the MBP.
The heat generated by a dedicated graphics card would not go well with the design of the MBA.
And think what it would do to battery life.
Mar 6, 2008, 07:42 PM
Dont hold your breath. People with serious graphical needs should buy the Macbook Pro.

Hey A's Nation -- I wrote and recorded a song for the A's back during the 2005 pennant drive, when I was stoked on what a comeback team we were. The song is called "Underdog Revolution." It seems fitting to unveil this now for all you diehard fans, as we embark with our team on the uphill climb of the postseason.
Follow this link to a downloadable version of the song, with lyrics on the webpage as well. Unfortunately, it's not a streaming version, but you can save it and play it on any MP3 player (it's about 3 megs). Hope you enjoy, and go A's!!!!

Nokia Siemens Networks is world's second largest LTE radio access network vendor by revenue says Dell'Oro Group Q3 report
Espoo, Finland – November 13, 2012
In the third quarter of 2012 Nokia Siemens Networks claimed the second largest share of the LTE mobile radio access network (RAN) market by revenue according to a report from analysts Dell'Oro Group. The report shows that Nokia Siemens Networks share has increased significantly over the last 12 months to just over 21%.
Nokia Siemens Networks now has 70 commercial LTE contracts, even excluding trials such as the recently announced large-scale TD-LTE trial with China Mobile. The increase in share of LTE RAN revenue reported by Dell'Oro is a result of the company's leadership in contract wins translating into greater share of revenue through 2012.
Dell'Oro reported that in the Asia Pacific region Nokia Siemens Networks led the LTE RAN market. The Asia Pacific region is reported as the the biggest by revenue with 41% of the total LTE RAN revenue, overtaking North America for the first time. Dell'Oro also reports that Nokia Siemens Networks is the leading non-Chinese TD-LTE RAN vendor.
Nokia Siemens Networks' share in Q3 2012 is four times its share in the equivalent 2011 report when it was reported as the fourth largest vendor. The leading vendor from the Q3 2011 report has seen its share drop by a quarter in the most recent figures, while last year's second placed vendor has lost over half its market share. Over that same period, Dell'Oro reports that the overall market size for LTE RAN equipment has almost tripled in size.
"We have a strategic focus as the mobile broadband specialist," said Barry French, head of marketing and corporate affairs at Nokia Siemens Networks. "Our customers around the world know that LTE is at the heart of the stronger, more profitable company that we are building at Nokia Siemens Networks."

October 16, 2002Sasser-- The cool weather is enticing many families to wander out to the pumpkin patch.
Pumpkin picking is in full swing at Mark's Melon Patch in Sasser. Little kids are coming out in droves to select the perfect pumpkin for Halloween.
When four year old Allie Smith and Haden Hall are asked what they want to be for Halloween they say, "I'm going to be a ballerina, I'm going to be a ballerina too!" Allie's mom Beth Smith says, "They play ball together, take swimming lessons together, they've been best friends since they were born--they are only a week a part in age."
These best buddies do everything together and today they're picking out a pumpkin. Allie says, "Here's another big one, I can hardly lift this one up." A pumpkin has to meet certain credentials for the girl's to take it home. Allie's mom says, "It has to have a flat bottom, big round full one than will make a great pumpkin."
Allie asks Haden "How about this one, you can have this one Haden." Haden says, "That's not big like this one is, I'll find you a big one." With more than 3,000 pumpkins to choose from, it takes teamwork to find the best one and for these little pumpkin pickers, the fun is in the finding.
Allie and Haden didn't have much success today. There were so many great pumpkins to choose from, the girls weren't able to narrow it down. So, they'll have to make another trip to the patch to find that perfect pumpkin.

It had been 15 months since Steve Zakuani last played in a match after Brian Mullan broke his leg, but on Saturday night at CenturyLink Field, he was back, coincidentally against Mullan and his Colorado Rapids team. And while Zakuani was a great story all on its own, as big of a story was the Seattle Sounders' nine-match winless streak, but that streak is no more. That is because the Sounders picked up a 2-1 win, and along with the Zakuani return, made for a near perfect night in Seattle.
Marking on crosses was a problem for the Rapids all night and it led to both goals Seattle goals. First, Alvaro Fernandez was left completely unmarked on a corner kick so without a defender anywhere around him he had no problem nodding in the ball from Mauro Rosales. Later, Eddie Johnson was able to get free at the top of the six-yard box so when Rosales crossed he had an easy finish to double the Sounders' lead.
Later on, Omar Cummings scored to bring the Rapids to within one, but it wouldn't be enough. The Sounders had their three points in the bag.
With four minutes to go, Zakuani came in off the bench to cheers and chants from the Sounders' faithful. A win and a Zakuani return made for a great match, but then the match got a signature moment too when Zakuani and Mullan traded jerseys and embraced after the match. It was a great moment and a signal that things were back to normal, in its own way. Zakuani is playing and the Sounders are winning. Just like old times.

Throw on your pajamas and enjoy breakfast for dinner catered by autistic cooking students on Sunday night.
Kids from Pieceful Solutions school will be cooking at "Pajamas and Pancakes" to raise money for autism research.
With over 20 years experience, Chef "W" Reith can make pancakes in his sleep.
But for many of these autistic kids, whipping up this breakfast staple is a new and exciting learning experience.
"They have such awesome creativity. They have the ability to do a lot of incredible things with food and I want them to have fun," said Chef W.
Chef W is the founder of Square One, a nonprofit that teaches cooking to kids and adults with mental disabilities.
Twice a week, Chef W stops by Pieceful Solutions school for autistic children, teaching students kitchen basics, like knife skills and stove safety.
"Typical children pick up things naturally by just watching their mom in the kitchen or things like that. Our students need to be shown and taught, once their shown and taught, they get it. It's just breaking it down into those smaller pieces," said Kami Cothrun, owner and director of Pieceful Solutions.
Chef W says that people with autism are well suited to work in the kitchen.
They're often very focused and task oriented. He hopes the cooking skills he's teaching will help improve students' chances for career success after graduation.
'The unemployment rate for autism spectrum disorder is 90 percent for adults with it and that's awful and I would say it's just because people don't give them a chance," said Chef W.
11- to 16-year-olds are getting that chance as they cook alongside their upbeat and patient instructor.
First learning to mix their dry ingredients, then stirring together the wet ingredients.
The students then take turns cooking the batter inside their school kitchen.
Pancakes are on the menu, but the kids have made a variety of other foods with Chef W, from tacos to bread, and even pizza.
In about a month, they'll be cooking a three-course Italian dinner for their families.
"I would like to have taught them at least life skills so they can have independent living skills and also confidence, that's the most important part of the whole equation, honestly,is building them up as people," said Chef W.
Zoowalk kick-off Pajamas and Pancakes

There's been a lot of discussion here about what FSU's D will look like next year, e.g., how much will we improve? Phil Steele projects FSU to have the #9 most improved scoring D: LINK
So I was wondering how this projection might translate into the 2010 Scoring D rankings. And here's what I came up with:
1. Steele has FSU as the #9 most improved D in 2010.
2. In 2009 FSU was #94 in scoring D (30.1 points per game).*
3. North Texas improved 11 points per game from 2008 to 2009 in scoring D, which Steele says was "one of the best" in 2009.
4. Based on 1-3, it's plausible that FSU will improve between 6-7 points per game on scoring D.
5. Based on 2 & 4, it's plausible that FSU will allow between 23.1 - 24.1 points per game in 2010.
6. In 2009 the team allowing 23.1 points per game was #44 in Scoring D; and the team allowing 24.1 points per game fell between #44 and #55.
7. Based on 5 & 6, it's plausible that FSU will be somewhere between #44 and #54 in scoring D.
* I'm using non-FEI rankings, since I believe Steele does as well.
This would be an improvement of 40-50 in scoring D.

Betty Bean with an update on the Jackie Walker Story:
Tennessee football great Jackie Walker's name will be on the 2013 ballot for the College Football Hall of Fame, says his brother, Marshall Walker.
"I was notified last week that Jackie will be on the ballot that will out March 1," Marshall Walker says. "Hopefully, it's this year--but if not, he's on now until he's elected."
Jackie Walker, a linebacker who led the Vols to 30-5 record from 1969-1971, including a Southeastern Conference Championship in 1969 and the Liberty Bowl in 1971, was the first African American to captain an SEC team (one of his alternate captains was offensive lineman Phillip Fulmer). He was also the first African American in the SEC to be named an All-American, and he set an NCAA career record for interceptions returned for touchdowns by a player other than a defensive back that still stands.
Walker, who was gay, died of AIDS in 2002. In 2007, a Metro Pulse story asked why he had not been named to a single hall of fame. He was named to the Greater Knoxville Sports Hall of Fame the following year, and then the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame in 2011.
This year, he's a lock for at least one vote to the national hall of fame. Former teammate Tim Priest is a voting member and says he single-shot votes for Tennessee guys.
"Jackie is certainly deserving. He accomplished about as much as anybody ever has," Priest says. "He set SEC and national records for scoring on fumble recoveries--and in those days, you could not pick up a fumble and run it back. You had to catch it in the air. He had explosion at the point of impact as well as anybody you ever saw and he was the fastest guy on our defense, including all our defensive backs. And you know what? He was a good teammate."
Walker washed out of the National Football League, and Priest says he's always wondered if his sexuality played a part in that.
"I've always wondered if he wouldn't have played 10 years in the NFL if that hadn't happened, because he certainly was good enough. He would have been a great strong safety. I hope we can get Jackie elected."
Players become eligible 10 years after playing their last year of intercollegiate football and remain eligible until 50 years after their last game, which means that the clock is ticking on Walker. If elected, he would join fellow Vols like Johnny Majors, Bob Suffridge, Steve DeLong, Bobby Dodd, Doug Atkins, Chip Kell, and Steve Kiner.

By Steve Moseley
Just when you think she's done … she's not.
The transition of the corner occupied by No. 16 Fairview Drive has been remarkable. Everyone says so. But has it been enough? She says no.
And so we continue to nibble at a grand plan which, best I can figure, has no end.
Next to confront the aged Lonesome Steve and Good Wife Norma are: (1) the necessity of moving a utility shed that is screwed tight to a 2×4 base of son Jarrod's creation, and (2) excavating (for drainage) and then covering the walkway between the new retaining wall and the garage on the east end of the property.
And so it was I found myself at Overland Sand and Gravel on Thursday, obtaining as much pea gravel as my wee Ranger pickup could carry.
First a channel must be dug so the occasional downpour that drains from neighboring yards will find its way to the street instead of into the new garage. Next, she says, we'll cover the narrow walkway in a fabric barrier that, she says, will discourage weeds and, one supposes, help run off … well … run off.
Next comes what I'm sure we'll come to laugh and call Fun With Pea Gravel as we cleverly hide the drainage trench by leveling the gravel off across the entire top.
Then we'll be done. Right?
Wrong. Then, she says, we'll grunt and grub some big slabs of flagstone on top of the pea gravel to make a dandy walkway.
And all that's the easy part. Moving that hulking shed will have to be done by hand since there's inadequate space to get a Kiewit and Sons crane in there to do the job properly. Guess whose 'hands' will be involved in that deal.
Then will we be done? Logic and common sense suggest we will. Past experience with GWN suggests we won't.
Worst of all is that I'm disqualified from serious whining by the fact she usually ends up doing as much digging and loading and dumping and lugging as I do. Usually more. Often significantly more.
Will that be the case again with this phase of The Project from H-E-Double-Toothpicks? One can only hope.

Brutal bottle attack led to brain damage
12:40pm Wednesday 13th August 2008 in News
A 29 year old Netherton man brutally hit a man over the head with a champagne bottle which left him brain damaged a court heard.
Richard Smith from Stourbrige suffered a traumatic brain injury which left him with language difficulties, an impaired right arm and the restriction of his mobility.
Mohammed Osman Khan, of New Road, Netherton struck him on the head with the bottle with such force it fell from his grasp and smashed on the ground.
The blow caused Mr Smith, aged 29, to fall to the floor but the attack persisted and Khan was seen to stamp on his head. Wolverhampton Crown Court heard how that night Mr Smith had been to Worcester with friends from the Broadway pub in Stourbridge to celebrate a birthday but on the return journey there was a verbal confrontation with Khan who had become "annoying."
When their coach returned to Stourbridge four or five Asian males who had been summoned by Khan on his mobile then attacked Mr Smith with bottles.
It was then that Khan was seen to strike the terrible blow to his head while two friends of Mr Smith's were also injured in the attack.
Walter Bealby prosecuting said it was clear Mr Smith had been badly hurt and he was later found to have a fractured skull with associated bruising to the brain and, six months later, he was still in a "sorry state."
Khan, who was arrested on the M6 two days after the attack, denied causing grievous bodily harm with intent, violent disorder and also incitement to cause grievous bodily harm.
In his defence to the jury he maintained he had been attacked by Mr Smith and his friends and he had been acting in self defence.
However the jury convicted on unanimous verdicts on all three charges by a jury after they retired to consider the evidence at the end of his trial.
Judge Michael Dudley remanded Khan in custody for reports but he warned him he faced a "very lengthy" sentence for the attack.
The Judge said he had to consider passing an indeterminate sentence on Khan after being told he had a string of previous convictions for offences including assault and affray.
He said he had to determine the how dangerous Khan was because it was likely a sentence would be passed for the protection of the public.
The Judge remanded him in custody until August 22 when it is expected the case will be finalised.
