Maybe the sky is falling. Another tough roadie on tired legs. Let's see how deep the Spurs can dig tonight.
BUTD is signed up for the recap.
I would say that I'm not worried about the way the Spurs are playing, but that would be lying. I think we definitely need to start playing better. However, I don't expect that to start happening until the end of the month when the Spurs have a couple days off and a 4-game home stand.
I'll officially hit the panic button after the 5-game stretch of: Houston, G-State, at Utah, at Portland, Phoenix. There aren't any back-to-backs and there are even multiple days off between games. A very "playoff" type stretch of games against playoff team(mostly).

Bigger Mini keeps its charm
The latest Mini retains its cute little looks even though it has grown by 98mm to 3821mm, say executives at the BMW-owned British brand.
The longer body, plus an added 28mm to the wheelbase means the new Mini has more space in the rear for passengers and 50 liters more luggage space at 211 liters.
The third-generation Mini looks very much like its predecessor but beneath the body shell a lot has changed. The car debuts a new front-wheel-drive platform that will also be used by BMW brand's compact models.
The new Mini has a more upscale interior and a new engine lineup.
The Mini gets BMW's newest gasoline and diesel engines. All are turbocharged, have direct injection, variable valve control and their fuel consumption is up to 27 percent lower compared to the outgoing versions.
What's new inside?
BMW responded to criticism about the Mini's ergonomics by making changes to the interior. Driver information such as the speedometer is moved in front of the driver from the center of the dashboard in current models. Also, the switches for the power windows are now on the doors instead of the center console.
New technology?
The Mini is now offered with the latest driver assistance systems such as head-up display, adaptive cruise control and collision warning with initial brake function. It's lighter than the current model and the suspension technology has been improved.
Target buyers?
The Mini is aimed at so-called "lifestyle-orientated people" of all ages. Half of Mini buyers are women.
Mini's global sales rose by a little more than 1 percent to a record 305,030 units last year, with the hatchback variant accounting for 128,478 of those sales.
Base price: 17,450 euros (Germany)
Platform: UKL (Untere Klasse)
Where built: Oxford, England; Born, Netherlands (starts summer 2014)
Lowest CO2 emissions: 89g/km (Mini One D with 95 hp)
Main rivals: Audi A1, Fiat 500 Abarth, VW Polo GTI
Peter Schwarzenbauer, BMW's board member in charge of Mini, thinks that sales result is a great achievement given the economic woes in the brand's European home region. "It shows the strength of the brand," he said.

Falling in Love with Fall
Clever title, right? I know. I have a way with words.
Back home in Alaska, we say that we have two seasons; winter, and construction season. It's cold, dark and snowy from October until April, and as soon as the snow starts showing signs of melting, construction starts on the roads, fixing all the upheavals and potholes
and other miscellaneous damages caused by the harsh winter. This goes on until October, and the cycle starts all over again. I'm not even kidding, that's seriously it. There's a span of about two weeks that I suppose you could call fall if you were really excited about it, but once the leaves start to fall off the trees, everything freezes and it starts to snow. Fall is more like a myth than a reality there.
I had always heard that fall in New England was a really big deal, but I found it really hard to believe that people would drive all the way up here to look at a bunch of red leaves. When I told people that I would be moving to Massachusetts for school, they would get really, really excited about it, and tell me that I would absolutely love the fall and that I would be totally in love with it and it's amazing and so on and so forth. Frankly, I didn't really believe them. I mean, how exciting could a bunch of leaves really be, right?
Apparently, much more exciting than I had thought. In mid-September, one lone tree right outside my residence hall began shedding leaves. But these were no ordinary leaves; they were yellow, orange, and red, and they were, to be honest, a marvelous fall spectacle. While I appreciated the aesthetics and the change of scenery, I still wasn't as impressed as all my Alaskan associates told me I should be. I mostly just pretended to be impressed, just to appease everyone.
Fast forward a few weeks to yesterday, the first official day of Fall Break. I was still at Clark for the first day or so of break, and staying on an empty campus made me feel like Harry Potter when he stays at Hogwarts for Christmas because he doesn't have a home to go to.
As I was walking from my residence hall to go get some brunch, I lifted my gaze from the ground, and began to take in my surroundings. With the distractions of chatty friends and the stress of schoolwork, I always considered myself to busy to take a second and soak in my surroundings. And guess what? They're beautiful. I knew Clark was a beautiful campus, but, until the other day, I never realized that fall had transformed the campus into a mystical red and yellow wonderland. Everyone in Alaska was right; fall is absolutely incredible.
The best part about it is that we're just getting started. There's more fall coming, and I'm fully prepared to enjoy it.
This post is dedicated to a like-minded fall enthusiast, Mason Wick

I think this "X" shaped craft Elden is referring to is this: http://gizmodo.com/5462539/hubble-detects-mysterious-spaceship+shaped-object-traveling-at-11000mph - Nasa updates were later posted, in which they claimed it to be a collision of two asteroids. However, I do not feel that this is a collision of two objects, reason is, is because there is only one visible trail of debris. Also, I am going to run so image enhancers of the Black Knight, see what happens :)

Not entirely sure what you mean by the "X" "Craft" ? Can you explain more, or offer a link? I can definitely look into it, or create a case file for it....
Looking forward to it!

The Associated Press
Indianapolis — Emergency crews scrambled to get an ambulance to pick up a pregnant woman who was in labor in the midst of a long traffic tie up on an Indianapolis highway.
Traffic quickly backed up on Interstate 65 on the city's south side Monday morning after a semitrailer jackknifed during a crash.
Indianapolis Fire Department officials say a crew leaving the scene came across the woman who was in labor. A Greenwood ambulance arrived using I-65's northbound lanes to reach where the woman was stuck in the southbound lanes.
Fire Capt. Rita Reith says the woman was taken to a nearby hospital but information on her condition wasn't immediately available.

Twin Mountain Tonesmen deliver singing valentines
Tradition continues in San Angelo
SAN ANGELO, Texas - Each year, the The Twin Mountain Tonesmen split into quartets and deliver Singing Valentines in and around San Angelo to many deserving sweethearts. Each delivery includes a love song sung by a quartet, a long-stemmed rose, and a card with the sender's message.
Singing Valentines are typically delivered to offices, schools, restaurants, homes, hospitals, and other locations. "It is best if the delivery time is a window of 4 hours or more so we can schedule all the deliveries." said Mark Clark, Musical Director.
This year, with Valentines Day on a Sunday, the Tonesmen will be delivering on Friday, the 12th, Saturday, the 13th, and Sunday, the 14th as needed. "We are expecting some office deliveries on Friday and restaurant deliveries on Saturday." said Clark.
"We have surprised more people than we can remember." he said. "Many times, they are also embarrassed, but they always love receiving a Singing Valentine and tell us it was the best Valentines present ever."
The cost for a Singing Valentine is $25 if no specific delivery time is needed. For deliveries that have a short time window of 1 hour or less, the cost is $50. "We try very hard to accommodate the short time span deliveries, but we can't guarantee those." said Clark. Delivery times are 8am to 9pm on Friday, 12th, 10am to 9pm on Saturday, 13th, and 12pm to 7pm on Sunday, 14th.
Clark said they have seen many different kinds of Singing Valentines deliveries over the years. "One quartet delivered a Singing Valentine to a guy who was proposing to his girlfriend at a restaurant in front of everyone. (She said "yes")." We've had happy deliveries and some sad ones. One was for a lady's mother in the hospital who was unresponsive. The quartet starting singing and the a tear rolled out of the mother's eye. The tears started rolling out of the quartet's eyes as well."
Clark said the quartets have delivered Singing Valentines to all ages. "We have even delivered many to college students." he said. "It doesn't matter how old you are, it's special to be serenaded on Valentines Day."
To surprise your loved one this Valentines Day with a Singing Valentine with a quartet from the Tonesmen, call Mahon's at 949-6031 or contact any Tonesmen member.

Mildred Coleman says she's done going back downtown. "I wouldn't go it would scare me to go down there I felt funny about it before that now I really wouldn't go, she said while going shopping in west Augusta.
Two brutal muggings on the Augusta Riverwalk, and a vicious brawl last month downtown with the video now making the rounds on social media will impact Broad Street. The question is...by how much?
"That will be yet to be seen, the last time that this happened, for a day or two people were a little leery you look at what happened Saturday we had hundreds of people downtown and it was it was hustling yesterday," says Downtown Development Authority (DDA) Director Margaret Woodard.
Those downtown point out the muggings occurred on Riverwalk, not Broad Street, and dismiss the worry that people will turn to the incidents as a final reason not to come downtown .
"No, the short answer is no. It's becoming more vibrant," says Doctor Benjamin Casella, who is president of the Downtown Augusta Alliance.
"We went to first Friday early on and didn't go back for this very reason, so we wouldn't go, says Coleman.
But, plans are in the works that could make downtown safer it involves 10 new security cameras to be installed on the signal lights and lamp posts on Broad Street.
Fiber optic lines are ready in place and the DDA is waiting on $75,000 in sales tax funds to come in the fourth quarter of this year to hopefully move forward installing the cameras.
"That is a project we have discussed we feel like it will deter if people know they are on camera they may think twice," says Woodard.
"In lieu of the terrible acts of terror that just happened in Boston, it was both private and public security cameras that played a role in capturing those suspects," says Casella, who supports the idea of additional security cameras.
Because people will be suspect about coming downtown unless they feel it is safe.
"What does downtown need to do to get you back, we asked Coleman, "Well, I'm not sure they need to have more security or I don't know it's got to get better or nobody is going to go down there.

In perhaps a nod to our old belief of the Earth as the center of the universe, our first unit of measurement is based on the distance of our home to the sun. We are 93 million miles from the sun, but it's much simpler to say we're one astronomical unit (AU) from the sun. In our solar system, the distance from the sun to the other planets can be measured in astronomical units as well: Mercury .38 AUs, Venus .72 AUs, Mars 1.52 AUs, Jupiter 5.2 AUs, Saturn 9.54 AUs, Uranus 19.218 AUs, Neptune 30.06 AUs, and Pluto 39.5 AUs.
This works great within our own solar system, but as we move through our galaxy, distances grow ever farther apart. That's why we created a unit of measure based on the distance that light travels in a year. We call these units "light years," of course. A light year is 6 trillion miles. (6,000,000,000,000 miles)
The closest star to our solar system is actually a system of three stars called the Alpha Centauri System, consisting of Alpha Centauri, Rigil Kentaurus, and Proxima Centauri, which is actually slightly closer than her sisters. Alpha Centauri is 4.3 light years from Earth.
If we want to move beyond our "neighborhood," our nearest neighboring galaxy is Andromeda. At 2.2 million light years, it's the most distant object that we can see without a telescope, and the only object outside our own galaxy in the universe.
2.2 million light years is a huge distance, but merely a drop in the bucket to the size of our universe. In order to measure larger distances, the parsec (Paralax Second) was invented. A parsec is approximately 3.258 light years. Along with the parsec, larger distances are measured in kiloparsecs (thousand parsecs) and megaparsecs (million parsecs).
One other way to denote very large numbers is something called scientific notation. This system is based on the number ten and is written like this 1 X 101. This number equals 10. The small 1 located to the right of the 10 indicates how many times 10 is used as a multiplier. In this case once, so the number equals 10. So, 1 X 102 would be the same as 1 X (10 X 10) or 100. An easy way to figure a scientific notation number out is to add the same number of zeros at the end as the small number to the right of 10. So, 1 X 105 would be 100,000. Small numbers can be written this way as well by using a negative power (the number to the right of 10). In that case, the number will tell you how many places to move the decimal point to the left. An example: 2 X 10-2 equals .02.

Summer days are like a canvas; ready for painting in any imaginative way. Freed from the restraints of school performance and other scheduled obligations, children are ready to let their imaginations run wild. In the days gone by, parents encouraged their kids to play outside, usually without a lot of supervision or expensive props. Enjoy some of the best of the past by turning the little ones loose to explore and create their own interesting adventures and worlds. The lawn may take a hit, but remember, you are raising children, not grass. Provide lots of drinking water and a few healthy snacks and watch the exquisite workings of the imagination unfold!
Here are a few ideas for enjoyable old-fashioned summer play:
Fill a large jar with slips of paper with ideas for activities and games. After chores are finished or if boredom begins to rear its ugly head, let the children select a slip of paper to jumpstart imaginative play. For ideas to fill your activity jar, you can download a list here.
No purchase necessary
Provide simple items and encourage the children to participate in imaginative play. A few things to have on hand might include: large cardboard boxes, building toys such as interlocking blocks and Tinkertoys, old dress-up clothes, a few pots and pans, play money, dolls and assorted things (clean out a junk drawer).
Kids love a hideaway
Help the children create one by setting up a tent or tying up a few ropes and blankets. This becomes a fort, store, castle, fashion show, stage or spy base. They are only limited by their imaginations. My sister, brother and I used to love playing together and with the other children in the neighborhood. We were secret agents, shopkeepers, fashion models, teachers and nurses, mermaids and stars. We created treasure hunts, obstacle courses, private clubs, zoos, safaris and worlds of wonder — even an imaginary candy land (before Willy Wonka).
Here are some simple ideas for themed play:
Superspy: Create surveillance and communication equipment from assorted stuff: old lipstick tubes, interlocking blocks and other junk. This might be challenging for kids used to having cell phones, but put away the real electronics and see what their brilliant little minds can come up with. From their super secret spy base, they may just save the world!
Box it up: A whole world of transportation can be created from cardboard boxes. From trains and planes to cars, boats and rockets, your adventurers can zoom around the world and beyond. Other uses: forts, shops, castles and home sweet home.
Little Squirts: Acquire an arsenal of hydrotactical assault weapons (get some water guns.) This is a tip from a recent high school graduate. Refill buckets are essential, but keep babies and toddlers away.
Wildflower Tea Party: Invite the girls for a charming social. The hostess can make and hand out invitations, set the table (which could be a box), gather flowers for a centerpiece, pour juice and pass cookies and sweets.
Treasure Hunt: Turn the older creative ones loose to create a treasure hunt for the little ones. Find landmarks, hide clues and try to get to the prize before the pirates do.
Dress up: Gather a few interesting pieces of clothing and create a fashion show or play. Our favorites were Peter Pan, we were either flying or playing mermaids in our wading pool, rock star and runway.
Free playtime is a great incentive and reward for finishing chores. Children love creating all kinds of fun using invention and wit and developing social and imaginative skills. Save money and enjoy a little old-fashioned fun this summer with your children, you will be glad you did.

Q: Can you tell us why our figs did not mature and what we might do to have a better result next season? Last year there were perhaps a dozen figs that never got larger than a small grape.
These did not emerge until November and never grew to full size. The tree was fertilized with 16-16-16 commercial fertilizer and had plenty of water.
A: The usual problem is not watering frequently enough. When watering you have to make two important decisions: how much to apply and when to apply it. If you miss one water application the plant registers that as "not enough water" and a series of plant responses to that threat happen.
There are three fig crops each year here. The third one in the fall never seems to make it. This third crop will get button sized and fails to develop because of winter weather coming in.
I would mulch around the tree with about 4 inches of wood mulch and cover the soil to a distance of about six feet from the trunk. Water in a basin around the trunk about 6 feet in diameter.
The basin should be able to hold at least 2 inches of water but 4 would be better. Fill the basin with water each time you irrigate. Water once a week now, twice a week in May, three times a week in June, back to twice a week in September and once a week mid-October.
Once the leaves fall off in winter you can water about every 10 to 14 days. Fertilize once in February with a fruit tree fertilizer or four fertilizer stakes per tree, one in each quadrant of the irrigation basin.
Q: I have a 4-year-old Meyer lemon tree in a huge pot. Last spring, it had massive flowers and lots of little green buds followed. Then every single one of those buds turned black and dropped off. The plant is fertilized twice a year. It gets moisture and hasn't dried out.
A. Sounds like you had post bloom fruit drop. Fruit drop can also occur during summer months and just before harvest. The usual reasons for post bloom fruit drop is some sort of stress or excessive growth.
Four years is getting up there for being in the same pot without repotting. You might consider repotting and adding some new soil to the mix.
I know you said it had adequate water but if it went through just a few hours of drought during or just after pollination, fruit drop may occur. If we have some freezing weather during or just after flowering, that can cause the fruit to abort, too.
When watering, make sure about 20 percent of the water that you apply runs out the bottom of the container each time you water. This is important for flushing salts from the soil. Excessive salts in the soil would show up as leaf tip burn, leaf margin burn, discoloration of the leaves and fruit drop.
Another possibility in containers is overheating. If containers are in direct sunlight and the outside of the container gets too hot and transmits this heat to the soil, this can cause stress and cause root death and fruit drop.
Proper fertilization is important. Overfertilizing fruit trees, excess nitrogen, can cause fruit and flower drop. And finally less commonly some insects such as scale or mealybug infestations can cause fruit drop as well.
Make sure your container, the soil volume, is big enough to handle wide swings in temperature and water. Monitor both closely. You might find a houseplant moisture meter to be helpful.
Keep the outside of a plant container out of the hot sun. Double potting a container is helpful and keeps the soil temperature down. Watch for freezing temperatures at bloom time.
Water the soil just before the heat of the day. Wet soil heats up more slowly than dry soil. If we have any frost during bloom it will affect fruit production.

In one breath, you say it's enough for her to simply say she doesn't like kids, and then in the next, you are berating her very rational decision to seriously question whether the commitment to a child is for her before jumping into [...]

Outside response – you can expect that no reason you give, no matter how well thought out or valid, will ever be good enough. You should expect to be talked down to and either 1) be urged insidiously to change your mind or 2) be TOLD you will change your mind, even by people you [...]

The Weirdest 'Fashion' Trend To Hit China: Face-Kini
The only thing that makes this fashion is the fact that it comes in a variety of designs and you can buy them at swimwear stores. The intent for Face-Kini is protection from the sun.
"One way to avoid the dangerous rays of the sun is to stay indoors, another is to apply a healthy layer of sun cream and slap on a wide-brimmed hat.
If you're in China, however, there is a third option - a 'Face-Kini' complete with a body suit.
The name describes a protective head mask that is being used in Shandong province's East China Sea coast by beach-goers who want to protect their skin from the sun."
"The clothing was invented around seven years ago and is now under mass production and on sale at swimwear stores along the coast."

Anyone play "Realm of the Mad God"? (ROTMG)
It is a perma-death MMORPG. I found it via Chrome store. It is also on Steam, but I find it plays better in Chrome. Flash based.
I really dig this game. It has a lot of interesting ideas and I think it caters to both casual and hardcore players. One of the things I like about it is that it has a button to teleport you to the home sanctuary, so no matter what I am doing I can get up and tend to my wife or kids if they need something right away. It's free to play and you can buy extra bank space or characters. The inventory and trading system is very basic and simple.
I enjoy playing enough on my own and getting achievements, but the game is also very rewarding when you team up with others. When I show it to my friends they immediately start laughing when they see the graphics and basically don't give the game a chance. If you haven't heard of it I recommend you check it out and look through their wiki!

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - Click here to find out more about the Kosair Children's Hospital Home and BMW Raffle and to register to win.
You've heard the words, "take a chance."
Norton Commons and a group of about 45 local businesses are asking you to do
just that - take a chance. On November 17, someone will win a house and
help a child. You pay $100 for a chance to win the
new home at 10705 Impatiens Street in Norton commons. The home was built
by a lot of very grateful hands.
Susie Hencye is the owner of Twin Studios, an art gallery located
in Norton commons. From landscaping to lighting, plumbing to
painting, the effort to build this house was effortless. The entire
project was completed by vendors like Susie. These vendors donated their
time, talent and goods for the "good" of Kentucky's only
full-service, free-standing pediatric care facility dedicated exclusively to
caring for our kids.
Susie immediately expressed how thankful she is for
Kosair, "I will never be able to give back enough for what they did."
Charles Osborn, the builder of the home, explained how easy
it was to get help, "When you begin to solicit and work with various vendors
and groups, how many people have been affected by the hospital. How many
people have had services from the hospital?"
Hundreds of thousands of Kentuckiana families will tell you,
"There is no way to put a price on the services their children received."
Again Susie lets us know the importance of Kosair in her
family's life, "Had my children been born anywhere else they would not be here
with us today."
Susie is one of the many contributors to the $300,000 Norton Commons home, but she is also the mom of Aubrey and Chrisler White. Aubrey and Chrisler are her twins. They were born at Kosair
and they are just one of the many Kosair miracles.
"Chrisler was born purple," these words drew tears as she thought of the unexpected part the hospital took in her life. "Kosair took
care of my daughter for a month and my son for a few weeks so they have a
special spot in my heart," Susie's tears continued to roll as she spoke.
Then right in the middle of all the tears was a smile, a little laughter and
this declaration, "Aubrey's the biggest in her class. We've come a long
Kosair has a special place in the hearts of many in
Kentuckiana. The home that has been built is a special place. It was
built to make sure the mission and the miracles at the hospital continue.
The house is now ready to be raffled off. The house and everyone involved
in putting it all together, is ready to raise as much as they can so Kosair
Children's Hospital can continue to do as much as they can for our families.
"To have a home, a nice new home and to pick that up for
$100 is sure a good deal for somebody," Charles laughed.
It is a good deal for the kids at Kosair and a wonderful
chance for a dream come true.
"It's a lot better odds than the lottery. No slam on
the lottery. It's good odds for $100. It's a great donation
if you don't win the house," Charles explained.
If you don't win the house with your ticket, you
still have a chance to drive away in a 2013 BMW 1 series thanks to the Sam
Swope family.
Charles also laughed as he shared his thoughts, "I wouldn't
mind having that either and I think it's got a trunk full of cash as well."
The car will come with $10,000 cash. There
were so many ready and willing to give because they know what Kosair gives
every minute to this community and it's families.
If you visit the open
house any Saturday or Sunday between noon and 6 p.m. before November 17, you can
register to win a $10,000 shopping spree courtesy of Burdorf's Furnishings and Flooring. The home was built to bring lots of comfort to
its new owners with its hardwood floors, fireplace, gourmet kitchen, three
bedrooms, 2 and ½ bathrooms, basement, plus a 2 car garage. Almost 2,000
square feet of good feelings for a great cause ready for move in day.
Susie took a good look around at all the great work to once
again realize, "It's amazing how many lives have been touched."
The Norton commons project along with all the donating
vendors vow to make sure that the great work at Kosair will have the funds it
needs to continue.

New dissident group vows to wage a campaign of violence
A NEW dissident terror organisation has formed in Ireland and aligned itself to a political group set up by associates of murdered Real IRA boss Alan Ryan.
The Saoirse na hEireann group is suspected of already carrying out a pipe bomb attack and a shooting in north Dublin after a criminal gang tried to gun down a member of political group Irish Republican Voice (IRV), who was putting up posters in the area.
IRV is now the political wing of Saoirse na hEireann, the Sunday World can reveal. And this week a spokesman claimed the terror splinter group has elected an "army council" to wage a renewed campaign of violence.
The group is suspected of carrying out a shooting hours after an IRV spokesman released a verified statement to the Sunday World on behalf of Saoirse na hEireann announcing a new armed campaign. Carlo Moloney (22), was injured in the leg and arm in a drive-by shooting in Ferrycarrig Park in Coolock at 6.45pm last Thursday.
At war: Scene of shooting in Coolock
Moloney, from Greencastle Avenue, was taken to Beaumont Hospital where he was treated for his injuries, which are not life-threatening. Moloney had no involvement in the hit attempt on the IRV member, but it is believed he was targeted because of his links to other people in the area.
Republican sources claimed Moloney was shot by Saoirse na hEireann after a botched attempt on the life of an IRV member who had been putting up posters. The IRV was set up by murdered terror boss Alan Ryan's pal James McDonagh following the infighting in republican circles after Ryan's death.
Shot: Carlo Moloney
McDonagh has been recruiting former IRA members from different factions, including the New IRA and Continuity IRA, into the grouping. Earlier this month he visited Portlaoise Prison to recruit former New IRA member Declan Geraghty, who is serving a sentence for possession of a firearm.
McDonagh was accompanied to the meeting by his associate Trevor Conlon and a female connected to Geraghty. Republican sources claim he has also formed an allegiance with Dean Evans, who is in Portlaoise awaiting trial for the murder of former dissident republican Peter Butterly, who was shot dead earlier this year.
"They have been stepping up activity in recent weeks and they are clearly on a recruiting drive," said a security source. They're relatively small in numbers, but they intend to make an impact."
Republican sources claimed they targeted Moloney to send out a message after someone made a hit attempt on an IRV member who was putting up posters in north Dublin.
It is claimed that a criminal tried to shoot the man putting up posters, but the gun jammed.
Dissident leader: James McDonagh
However, hours before he was shot on Thursday, gardai raided the home of a known criminal and seized a 9mm firearm, ammunition and cannabis. The man is now facing a weapons charge. Security sources say the new dissident group was also suspected of being behind a pipe bomb attack on a Coolock traveller family during the week.
Members of that family are associated with the man arrested over the firearm. Shortly before Moloney was shot, a republican spokesman contacted the Sunday World to say IRV had aligned itself with a new terror group. The spokesman said they had aligned with Saoirse na hEireann who "recognised the political leadership of IRV".
A spokesman went on to warn: "Saoirse na hEireann would also like to state that any intimidation or threats to our members will not be tolerated and will be met with severe military action."
The Independent Monitoring Commission released a report in 2006 to say Saoirse na hEireann formed following a split in the Continuity IRA.
The group was responsible for a number of bomb hoaxes, but was believed to have ceased operations in 2009. However, in the statement the spokesman claimed the group had elected an army council and declared their "intention to raise arms in defence of our country and our people".
The spokesman added: "We demand the British government declare its intention to withdraw from out country and no more excuses are acceptable."

Query Details
|Query Subject:
Adolescent Electronic Communication and Literacy
|Joseph Caracciolo
|Submitter Email:
|click here to access email
|Linguistic LingField(s):
My name is Joseph Caracciolo. I am currently enrolled in the Intel Advanced
Research Program at Plainedge High School. This program has been very
successful; over the last few years, our program has had several finalists
in the science talent searches such as the Intel Science Talent Search and
the Long Island Psychology Fair.
I am exploring the effect acronyms commonly used in electronic
communication have on the literacy of teenagers. The specific modes of
communication I am looking into are SMS (short message service, otherwise
known as text messaging), E-mail, SNS (social networking sites such as
Facebook or Myspace), and blogs. I will measure the literacy of teens by
analyzing recent and past ELA (English language arts) test scores. I will
also design a survey to be distributed to adolescents which will gather
information on their electronic communication habits. I will then compare
survey data and test score data in order to find trends among the student
population as a whole.
I have conducted extensive background research involving Pew polls and
available NYS ELA scores. Preliminary examination indicates that overall
ELA scores have risen over the years. The amount of teens who use cell
phones has also increased.
I hypothesize that any mode of electronic communication that requires
typing increases literary interest and ability, in spite of the extensive
use of acronyms. I believe girls will text more than boys. Girls and boys
will use social networking sites equally. They will use email equally as
well. Girls will utilize emoticons and acronyms more than boys. As a result
of all this electronic communication English grades will rise and so will
SAT scores.
In order to find more information concerning my hypothesis I will release a
survey to everyone in my school. Could you recommend any existing
literature of survey instruments that I could cite? Any guidance you could
provide would be greatly appreciated. Furthermore, my research aims are
flexible and open to change. I look forward to hearing from you.

But I think it looks good around here. Some fresh paint is just what we needed.

I have added a long-winded post script to the end of this post, after the blinding light of a few days on CARTOON BREW. Long and windy a post it is too, but hopefully the last word (from me anyway) on this topic.... Hopefully too it is more in the spirit of a "Springer" final thought than a case of Olbermann's Syndrome....

New York Knicks fans should be rooting for the New Orleans Hornets to start losing. Knicks fans lost this summer in the LeBron James sweepstakes, and had to settle for Amar'e Stoudemire. Their best bet to become a championship contender is to acquire Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul, but it is a long shot.
New York Knicks are hoping to acquire Carmelo Anthony of the Denver Nuggets via trade during the season. Chris Paul the other key to this puzzle, and is a free agent at the end of this season. It is rumored that he wants out of New Orleans. Just before the season tip off CP3 made some noise about being traded, but it quieted down and he went to work.
For this to work in the Knicks favor the Hornets need to lose games, and so far this season the Hornets are 13-7. If the New Orleans can sneak into a top 3 seed in the West and get deep into the playoffs then CP3 will be less likely to skip town. Likewise Carmelo Anthony won't want to go to New York unless Chris Paul is going there. So if the Nuggets are looking for a trade midway through the season, and the Hornets are winning games, Carmelo might be looking for another city to live in besides New York. Chicago perhaps? Luol Deng and Taj Gibson are looking pretty good if you are the Nuggets and are in danger of becoming the 2011 Cavaliers and lose your superstar for nothing. If you live in New York pray the Hornets to start losing, and if you're the Chicago Bulls then I wouldn't try to hard when you face Chris Paul and the Hornets.

Broncos land 2nd 2014 commit
It's barely April, but the Broncos just gained their second verbal commit of the 2014 class. QB Jalen Greene (6'3" 200 lbs) from Serra HS in California decided to pull the trigger 10 days after the Broncos extended his first and so far only offer. Greene is currently rated a 3-star by Scout.com and the #34 QB prospect in next years class. Greene has already stated that he plans to graduate early to enroll in January following the Nick Patti blueprint. Greene led his squad to a state championship last year.
