One offseason ago, the Bucks went through a whirlwind of prospective point guards before settling on Brandon Knight. An offer for Atlanta's Jeff Teague meant the Brandon Jennings days were all but over, and a matched offer sheet by the Hawks meant Jennings would be dealt.
After talking about their dogs for a while, Joe Dumars and John Hammond swapped point guards (with Milwaukee also picking up Khris Middleton and Slava Kravstov!). How did that turn out?
First, let's do a blind resume test.
PG 1 – 15.5 pts, 7.6 ast, 1.3 stl, 2.7 to, 44.1 eFG%, 15.6 PER, 23.4 USG
PG 2 – 17.9 pts, 4.9 ast, 1.0 stl, 2.6 to, 47.3 eFG%, 16.5 PER, 26.8 USG
PG 3 – 16.5 pts, 6.7 ast, 1.1 stl, 2.9 to, 47.4 eFG%, 17.1 PER, 25.7 USG
Take your pick. Who do you want? They're all pretty close.
What if I told you PG 1 (Jennings) hadn't show much improvement over his career and his numbers, on the whole, regressed this season? And what if I told you PG 2 (Knight) was three years younger than PG 3 (Teague)? You very well may pick Knight.
Knight made significant strides in his third NBA season. He decreased his turnover rate and improved his passing, much to the delight of those who have pointed out these weaknesses in his game. Although his three-point shooting plummeted to a career-low 32.5 percent, he scored at a career-best rate near the basket, something Jennings haters are relieved to see.
Knight was an absolute gamer for a Bucks team lacking identity on both ends of the court. Easily Milwaukee's most consistent performer, Knight shouldered the brunt of the offensive burden for most of the season. He also provided a few spectacular highlights. Dunks against the Magic and Raptors and big blocks on Birdman and Jodie Meeks were very… un-Bucks-like.
For Knight to solidify himself as a starting guard in the league, he'll have to continue to raise his assist percentage, while bringing his usage rate down to normal levels. He'll have to become a guy who can spread the floor and facilitate for Giannis Antetokounmpo and a top pick in the 2014 draft.

Finally Finished: Our Deck Furniture In Action
Well, our goal was to get to enjoy our deck by Labor Day and we squeaked in with just a few days to spare. And in case you couldn't tell, I'm jazz hands excited about it. Don't ask me what this move is called. John just picked up the camera and aimed it at me and this happened. It's a pose straight out of Kids Incorporated.
We probably would have taken a rickety card table and some metal folding chairs, so we're psyched to have found actual end-of-season discounted furniture to put out there for the long haul – but we definitely have more in mind for finishing things off (more on that in a minute). Oh and we mentioned that we have to wait a bit to stain or seal this baby (more on that here) so that will definitely add a lot more richness to the wood so it looks a lot more polished.
As for the process of bringing furniture out there, first we plopped our freshly sealed World Market table down in the middle of the deck (centered between our two zippered seams, which will be a lot more obvious when the wood shrinks up a bit and gets sealed/stained so it's a richer color). You can see from the pic below that there's not a giant amount of room on each side of the table, but it's almost three feet (on each side), which is thankfully workable for us. Each board is 6″ wide, so it's around 32″ of clearance.
Now let's fast-forward to the fun part. Not only did we add our acacia wood chairs from Joss & Main (which we think will be a similar color to the deck once it's stained or sealed), but we brought in some pillows, a runner, and some other accessories. Come on, you guys know I couldn't resist that stuff if I tried. It's a sickness. I have pillow problems.
Let's get close enough to lick that yellow chair, shall we?
On the table we have a runner we've had for about three years along with a yellow thrift store dish that I use to hold our napkins and some other outdoorsy items (like our yellow gurgle pot, a woven decanter, and some woven cups – all found at HomeGoods over the years). And as for the fun ikat-ish outdoor seat cushion, that's from Garden Ridge. They have like three giant aisles full of outdoor seat cushions for anyone who's on the hunt.
And although the space on either side of the table looks a little tight in the shots above, I was just cropping those tighter so my accessories could shine. Haha. And we're back to pillow problems. Anyway, here's a better shot from the side so you can see the room behind the chairs (which are pulled out a bit in this shot, but not all the way):
If someone's in them it usually leaves around a foot and a half for scooting behind them (with someone in the chairs they usually bump out to the other end of the board that they're on in the pic above, which leaves around 16″ behind them for scooch-age). It's not enough room to do a pirouette, but it works for slipping by. Whew. We've also talked about pushing the table up against either side of the house if we ever want more clearance, but so far it has been all good. You know we'll keep you posted if we rearrange things though!
But enough layout chitchat. Let's focus on the important stuff. Like this yellow ceramic fish that makes my heart sing.
Oh yeah, and we still have those bird napkins from Ikea that we used for Clara's party. They keep making them so every time we slip through we stock up on more. Can't. Leave. Without. Bird. Napkins.
Here's a little makeshift just-for-now corner that I tossed together (mostly for Clara since it's a nice little play-zone over there). Eventually we'd love to add a larger seat (preferably something plush) along with some large potted plants to lush up that hard little corner of wood and brick (and keep any children from trying to climb over the chair / hop that railing). And of course that woven toy basket does best indoors, so it's something I just tote in at the end of the evening.
I borrowed the green drum stool from the guest room (originally from HomeGoods for $39), and actually found that rabbit at Marshall's last week for $12. I think he's thoroughly enjoying the new deck. Oh and that cactus thing is Clara's toy but I totally play with it too (it's by Plan Toys). And this outdoor pillow is also from Garden Ridge.
We set everything out on the deck yesterday afternoon while Clara was napping, so when she woke up we got to do a big reveal for her. Not surprisingly she said "ooh the pretty pretty deck!" and ran over to the little basket of toys that I had dragged out there and went nuts. That's my girl. And Burger followed right behind her. See him lurking in the bottom corner? He's just waiting for his turn with the giant orange ball.
Wait, how have we not talked about the yellow chairs?! They were my dream from the very beginning (back when I made this mood board) and although I heard a few tips that they sold them at Menard's for something like $39, the best I could find (there sadly isn't a Menard's in our area) was $51 with free shipping through Joss & Main. But they came painted with outdoor automotive paint (read: durable) and were sealed and ready to be put out (wahoo! no additional prep work like the table and chairs!) so here's hoping they hold up for a nice long time.
I worried they wouldn't be comfy at the table since they might be too low or bulky, but with the added seat cushion they're just the right height (they were a tad too low without it) and the arms actually tuck under the table, so they can even be pushed in. In the end, they're the best seats
in the house on the deck. Here's Burger demonstrating their comfy-factor. Rough life he has.
Oh and remember how we mentioned that we were required to add a little extra railing to meet our county's code? Well it's actually super handy since Clara uses it to get up and down. Wahoo. Although last night we ended up digging out her old baby gate and setting it up in front of the stairs to keep her and Burger hostage on the deck instead of worrying about them running up and down while we're out there. Worked like a charm.
And as for our deck plans down the road, we'd love to:
- add big bulb string lights draped overhead for the length of the deck
- bring in a lot more planters/plants to soften the harsh angles and edges
- add that big plush chair for the play corner that we mentioned, along with more Clara-friendly stuff like a sand & water table
- paint that darn electric meter (more on that in a second)
- build a small paver patio at the bottom of the deck steps for the BBQ (since it's currently over on the patio where we play but never eat)
- build a gate that's prettier than the old baby gate we're using now (we rented a beach house once with a deck gate and it was awesome for kids/dogs)
- stain/seal the deck once the wood has dried out/is ready for it
- we'd even eventually love to paint the siding a medium gray tone that's in the brick/mortar so it feels more balanced someday
So there you have our freshly furnished deck (at this point the patio is totally complaining because he was completed last year but still only has two adirondak chairs to his name, haha). Someday we'll get back to that side of the house again. In the meantime, let's all just take a moment to soak up one universal truth. The weird little alley that we inherited with our house is no more:
Ding, dong, the alley's dead!
Oh and see that ugly electric meter on the left of the shot above? Ugh. I'm totally planning to paint it to match the brick like we did back in our first house when something similar was cluttering up our patio. It seems like it wouldn't make much of a difference, but it's kind of amazing how much paint can help things like that blend. Check out this pic from this old post back in 2009. They're not invisible, but they're a lot less "look at me!" than they were when they were all gray. And in our county you own those boxes, so it's ok to paint them (it's always good to call your county and check if you can before you have at it).
Oh and since we're on the subject of what once was, here's the old view from the hallway off of the living room and kitchen before Project Deck The Alley began. A nice little rotting balcony complete with some weeds and a straight shot at the air conditioner.
And here it is now. Wahooo! No more weediness, rotting wood, or air conditioner in sight!
We'd love to switch those sliders out with french doors to swank things up – in fact we're pricing out a few options to see if it's something we can do now (whee!) or something we need to wait and save up a bit more for (womp-womp). Will keep you posted! And as for what big project we'll be tackling next, we're debating between whipping our crazy not-even-functional-anymore basement into shape or adding some wainscoting/board & batten to our yawn of a hallway (not our frame one, the one that leads to Clara's room). We'll let you guys know where we land as soon as we… land. Haha.
But let's end this little deck dalliance with the what's your favorite part game. I'm the most obsessed with the yellow chairs and the ikat cushions. John loves the giant table that he can't wait to "fill with food." Perhaps there are gurgle pot lovers out there? Or you're like Clara and you're the most into the $2 ball from Target?
Psst- You can see how we planned, sourced, and built this beast of a deck here and see how we planned to furnish things a while back in this little mood board post.

I have deck envy… it looks fantastic! It is so impressive that John built it from the ground up!!
As for your next project, I highly suggest cleaning/organizing your basement. We are doing that b/c my BF inherited our house from his grandpa and we have a lot of old furniture and stuff to get rid of… let me tell ya, it feels SO good to see floor and walls that haven't seen the light of day for a while, haha. We are also finding cool stuff like his grandpa's WWII army lockers! Dare I say, cleaning our basement is actually fun?
What a difference a deck makes! Congratulations on another successful project. Not to see an air-conditioner makes such a difference and now you have usable space – yipppiii!
It looks amazing! Your hard work totally paid off to give you another gorgeous outdoor space. Now take a break and enjoy it :-)
I have been waiting for this post!! Nice job – i love the mitchmatched (sp) chairs and once the deck is stained it will really cozy up the space. How is it that you always have the perfect accessories on hand?? I always end up having to go out to get accessories for a room or project I finish — nice job John and Sherry!
Today's post title should be –
"All Jazz Hands on Deck"
Woot to the WOWZA! Fun happy spot – happy decorating!
Can't wait for the "icing on the cake" – string lights.
Love that yellow chair! I just moved into my new apt with a little balcony, and I was already planned to spray paint the two metal chairs and little table from my mom's backyard a lovely, bright, sunshiney yellow, with blue and green outdoor pillows that I swiped super on sale at Tuesday Morning! Cuteness! YHL is totally rubbing off on me :)
Congratulations! What a beautiful use of an awkward space. Love the happy colors!
I'm a big fan of the yellow chairs with ikat cushions too! Great job!
Love… Love…. Love
Great job building John… great job on the decor Sherry….. great job looking cute ~ Clara & Burger. ha!!
Love the table, the chairs, well… ALL OF IT!
A french door would be awesome-sauce. I can't help but notice that light hanging down in the last shot. Any plans to change that out?
Ah, that's likely it!
My favorite part is the Kids Incorporated reference… Oh, you mean of the deck? I think it all looks great! Very smart use of an awkward space.
I love it! Especially those yellow chairs! So gorgeous! WAY better than before!
Ooooooh I love it! You should hang some lights across it to give it some nighttime pizzazz too!
Looks so good! Like that spot was always meant for a deck.
I love the yellow chairs the best. Mostly because I have 2 and I love them so! They were a gift from my dad who travels for work and has a home improvement store obsession. Thanks Dad! And Menards!
We don't have a Menards actually but the area he travels too a lot (about 3 hours away) has one and sometimes I get the perks of that.
Huge Gurgle pot fan. It's my "go-to" hostess gift.
Love your deck! It looks like such a happy place. You will love it once you have a swinging, lockable gate to stop the escapes down the stairs. We don't have a fenced back yard, so the deck becomes the outdoor hangout for our puppy.
It looks awesome, fantastic work!!!
My favourite part? Probably the yellow chairs and the stairs. I dig well-done deck stairs. :)
Gurgle jug! I have such an obsession with them right now….
Love it! It makes such a huge difference. I have so many projects started and waiting to start in my fixer-upper that I don't think will ever get done and I'm totally stressed about it. I love that you guys dive right in and get it done. My favorites are the yellow chairs, the fish planter, and Clara's cactus haha. It looks cute out there.
love it!! I love the mix of wood, white and all the colorful accessories and chairs :)
I have been anxiously waiting to see what the finished deck would look like! It looks amazing!
It looks fantastic you guys!!!! :)
Never wanted a deck before, but now I'm a bit jealous. ;-) Looks great!
Looks amazing. Can't wait to see it filled out with plush plants and outdoor lights.
Can I request a romantic outdoor tablescpae?
You did it! Hooray! And, on another note, I have a completely unrelated question. I just painted my entryway door last night (needs another coat), and I painted the inside and the outside the same colour–a slightly mustardish yellow. I tried to find a shot of your yellow door closed, but didn't have any luck. Is the inside of the door bright yellow too? I think my entryway looks slightly circus-esque now. And there are two outside doors there, so I had planned on doing them both the same colour. Help! Any advice?
Good job! It looks great!!
What a great improvement to your house! Beautiful!
Squeal! I loved Kids Incorporated. K-I-D-S. Thanks for the happy flashback this morning. :)
I love the new view…and your jazz hands. I'm hoping you do your basement next. I'd love to see that transformation.
LOVE IT! Wanting some of those yellow chairs!
I love it!
I do find it curious that you were required to have a hand rail on the stairs – like you couldn't use the railing alone to hold on the way down.
Oh and I was totally going to suggest adding a few strings of lights overhead, but I see you've got that covered :)
I have to ask – are you going to leave the runner/cushions/etc. outside all the time? I always love the look of a finished outdoor space with all the trimmings…but it rains here so much that I know I won't always be able to get things in before they get soaked. And the thought of taking them off and on 3-4 times a week makes my head spin.
Do you have King Soopers or Kroger out there? They had brightly colored strings of chinese lantern shaped SOLAR outdoor lights in the seasonal stuff, which should be on clearance about now. The solar panels for outdoor lights are just those small black stakes, and maybe you could easily hide it on the roof? Next to the gutters or something? How nuce would that be – cheap clearance lights that never use electricity!
I love the deck AND Kids Incorporated (K! I! D! S! YEAH!). Coincidence? I think not.
Okay, I have no idea what that means, but congrats on the deck!!
This looks like such a nice place to sit and work (yahoo for wifi!), have morning coffee, or just hang out. I can't pick a favorite thing! But – I am in love with the light just inside of the sliding doors. Don't think I've ever noticed it before. I need to swap our a contractor-grade light on our upstairs landing….
LOVE those yellow chairs! What a great project – you completely transformed that awkward space.
Amazing! Great job with the vision, execution, and decoration!
Yay! It's so exciting to see it come together. I love the before and after shot because it really captures how you turned that awkward unsuable space into something very special.
I love love love the yellow chairs they are such an amazing focal point that makes your eyes just light up then you keep going and everything just compliments each other so nicely.. what an amazing job you've done.. can't wait to hear all about your first meal and first time entertaing family and friends out there!!
Don't leave those lovely cushions and pillows outside! I'd hate to see them destroyed like the porch!
Jon did such an amazing job on this deck! What a great hubby! I love how you guys demonstrate the process of gathering information on how to do a build like this. It helps readers with no experience feel like it actually is doable. Some may need more help more than others, but it certainly is a confidence builder. Keep doing what you are doing. Also, I love the idea you had to paint the siding and the electric meter. That woudld also make such a big difference! Best wishes!
My favorite part is probably the view from your hallway. It looks so inviting! It just beckons to you.
WOW!! It looks phenomenal! I think I would be creating excuses to sit outside and enjoy!!
Meanwhile, I keep looking at the photos of this renovation and all I can think is "oh my, they must have really increased the resale value of their house with this project." I know that isn't the reason you DIY…but do you have any sense of how your projects (like the kitchen, patio, deck, etc) have changed the value of your house?
Looks fantastic. I can see why you're stoked! We finished our deck last summer and it was nice to be able to enjoy it this year. I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun hanging out and entertaining.
When we built a screened in back porch on the back of our house we had the contractor box in our meter box. It has a door to access it by. It hasn't ever been a problem and it looks 100% better!! :) Just saw your idea on the link of painting the gas tank and I need to do that desperately. I will definitely be checking with our gas company. :)
Looks great! I love the yellow chairs. Hard work really pays off. We have some string lights from Target that have been going strong for 3 years on our deck, left out year round. They have really held up.
Go enjoy it! Makes me want to go pretty up my deck!
Deck looks great. An idea for your cozy corner is to incorporate a bench that doubles as a trunk. That way you get a seat that takes up the whole nook, and a place to stash/protect your outdoor cushions and other patio accessories when not in use. Much more convenient than lugging them inside and out, and a great dual function.
Wow, I love it. All of your big projects turn out great but what I love about this one is that it's kind of out of the blue. It would never have occurred to me to put a deck there, but it's the perfect size for dining.
Nice work to both of you and especially to John for taking such a risk building a brand new type of project on his own.
Hi John and Sherry!
Love, love, love the deck! I feel like my summer is complete now that you all have completed it. haha. :) Just an FYI, re: switching out sliders for french doors. I'm not sure if you all every leave your sliders open for breeze, but my parents do all the time and decided to switch out theirs for french doors. Problem was, no screen anymore! So the bugs came right on in when the doors were open. :( Just an fyi in case you guys like the breeze from that direction.
Congratulations again on the deck!
We are switching our slider out for a french door this next spring. When we talked with our local Lowes, they sell screens for french doors at only $92. They also have screens that roll up so there is definitely a way to have a screen for french doors :)
Dana over at House Tweaking installed french doors in her remodel and I guess the newer doors do have screens.
Here is the link to the door post (although the whole remodel is remarkable):
My apartment has french doors WITH sliding screen doors. The screens are easy to pop off the track if we want to throw both doors wide open. Usually we keep one of the french doors bolted shut (that multi-point locking feature) while still enjoying the overall french door look and we get a ton of use out of the screen.
Wow!!! Still amazed John(with help from Dad)built that deck.
Clara is going to love, love, love playing outside with her toys. She might even drag her crayons outside…what masterpieces she might create!!! Love the bird napkins from IKEA. Purchased the placemats at the Dallas Ikea this summer but did not see matching napkins. Love the placemats & funky birds. Seeing the green garden drum makes me remember the one I bought for like 19.99 at Big Lots 2 yrs ago needs sprucing up. Need to break out the cardboard and spray paint. I tell my sis I got my spray paint inspiration from you. I recently spray painted a burgundy frame I always disliked white…painted matte green and the picture pops…love it! Can't wait to see more deck pics & cute Clara/Burger making memories.
about the sand and water table idea — don't! Water would be fine, but don't do the sand. Earlier this spring, just after my husband had spent three days staining and resealing our big deck, I refilled my kids' sand and water table. I thought it would be awesome to have on the deck. And they loved it! It was awesome play time for a couple weeks! But of course the sand got all over the deck…which got tracked into the house. Annoying, but not a huge huge deal. What WAS a huge deal is that when we swept up the sand from the deck we discovered that HUGE patches of our freshly stained and sealed deck had been sanded away. The loose sand being walked on for a couple of weeks had essentially totally sanded off the top layer in big spots. Large sections of it had to be restained and sealed. Needless to say, the sand table is back in the grass of the backyard.

Many people of my generation know about the Yankee legends. They know Lou Gehrig, Mickey Mantle, and Babe Ruth (along with the litany of nicknames, too). They know the players of the current dynasty, such as Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Andy Pettitte, and Jorge Posada. Fewer know the greats (even though they should) like Whitey Ford, Ron Guidry, Don Mattingly, and Tony Lazzeri. But unfortunately, very few fans in the millennium generation know of Roy White.
An African-American ballplayer during the height of the desegregation movement, White displayed immense courage and control through the early days of his minor league career. Similarly to Jackie Robinson and Larry Doby, White experienced his share of racism, including playing for the "Columbus Confederate Yankees" in 1964. He made his debut for the Yankees on September 7th, 1965, at the age of 21. Except for a brief period in 1967, he stayed in the Majors his entire career.
A keystone for the Yankees throughout the 1960's and 1970's, Roy White was a beacon of consistency. He played in all 162 games in two separate seasons, and played a palindromic 1881 games in 15 years, all in the Bronx. White also patrolled left field stricter than Sheldon Cooper protecting his seat on the couch. He had really good range, a glove with strong webbing, and a powerful arm, which helped him rack up 80 career assists from the outfield. Additionally, he topped the left field fielding percentage chart from every season between 1968 to 1972, including an errorless season in 1971. Interestingly, he rose through the minor league ranks as a second baseman.
Additionally, Roy White was a rare power/speed combo for his time. Only 5'10" and not incredibly bulky, White batted in multiple lineup slots; sometimes he batted third, other times he would bat leadoff, or he could hit seventh, yet he always produced. He stole 233 career bases, while also blasting 160 career homers. He had 1803 hits, of which exactly 300 were doubles. He led the American League with 104 runs in 1976, and paced the AL in walks during the 1972 season, with 99. He never hit above .300 in any of his full seasons, yet hit .290 four times, finishing his career with a .271 career average. A solid resume to say the least. For perspective, Bobby Murcer had 1862 hits and a .277 average in 17 seasons.
White was also a two-time All-Star in 1969 and 1970, and a two-time World Series champion in 1977 and 1978. In fact, he batted .326 in the 1978 postseason, scoring 14 runs en route to a six-game victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers for the trophy. He would play just one more season with the Yankees before taking his talents to Japan, playing three seasons for the Yomiuri Giants (including one with the famed Sadaharu Oh, who has 868 career Japanese League home runs). Finally, at age 38, he hung up his cleats in 1982.
He wasn't done with baseball, though. He joined the Yankees as a coach for the 1983, 1984, and 1986 seasons, and rejoined the Yankees as a coach in 2005. A true Renaissance man, Roy White succeeded in all facets of baseball. It's truly a shame he doesn't get more talk, because White is definitely worthy of a more significant place in New York Yankees lore. Here's a quote to sum it all up: Roy White is probably the nicest Goddam guy on the club. He's quiet. He's well respected by everybody, and he's very classy, he and his wife both. – Sparky Lyle in The Bronx Zoo.

Abstract. We infer CO2 surface fluxes using satellite observations of mid-tropospheric CO2 from the Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) and measurements of CO2 from surface flasks in a time-independent inversion analysis based on the GEOS-Chem model. Using TES CO2 observations over oceans, spanning 40° S–40° N, we find that the horizontal and vertical coverage of the TES and flask data are complementary. This complementarity is demonstrated by combining the datasets in a joint inversion, which provides better constraints than from either dataset alone, when a posteriori CO2 distributions are evaluated against independent ship and aircraft CO2 data. In particular, the joint inversion offers improved constraints in the tropics where surface measurements are sparse, such as the tropical forests of South America, which the joint inversion suggests was a weak sink of −0.17 ± 0.20 Pg C in 2006. Aggregating the annual surface-to-atmosphere fluxes from the joint inversion yields −1.13 ± 0.21 Pg C for the global ocean, −2.77 ± 0.20 Pg C for the global land biosphere and −3.90 ± 0.29 Pg C for the total global natural flux (defined as the sum of all biospheric, oceanic, and biomass burning contributions but excluding CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion). These global ocean, global land and total global fluxes are shown to be in the range of other inversion results for 2006. To achieve these results, a latitude dependent bias in TES CO2 in the Southern Hemisphere was assessed and corrected using aircraft flask data, and we demonstrate that our results have low sensitivity to variations in the bias correction approach. Overall, this analysis suggests that future carbon data assimilation systems can benefit by integrating in situ and satellite observations of CO2 and that the vertical information provided by satellite observations of mid-tropospheric CO2 combined with measurements of surface CO2, provides an important additional constraint for flux inversions.

While I would love to see nothing more than for the public to recognize
that what this guy did was most likely of good intention, you have to
sit back and look at the big picture.
Testing an exploit on a University's server without explicit consent
from the University is illegal. Plain and simple. I don't care what
your intentions are. That is why we have Rules of Engagements and Get
Out of Jail Free cards in this business. For this guy to ignore those
rules, that tells me he is either not a professional, or his intentions
may have been tainted by his curiosity.
As a professional, one should understand the legalities of doing things
like this. I know personally, I would never try to do anything without
consent, especially after reading such stories as this.
This is probably the result of some overzealous incident response person
at the University working as an intern and not knowing fully what took
place. But, the fact of the matter is, this gentleman did not handle
himself the way he should have.

THE BRUNELLI BABY BARGAIN (2) by Kim Lawrence: After spending an unexpected but wonderful night with the exciting and enigmatic Cesare Brunelli, Samantha Muir discovers she's pregnant. When she tells Cesare about the pregnancy, he shocks her by saying he wants to marry her, and he'll do whatever it takes to make it happen. It takes some time to get accustomed to this tale, since it seems to start in the middle, without giving the necessary background as to who these characters are. The heroine turns out to be the strongest element. She's a dynamo, which makes up for some of the hero's sneaky machinations.

Heck, let's just say that 2014 is the Year of the Maker. (I credit David Lang for this idea.) Two thousand and thirteen was a perfectly good year for makers and I expect that 2015 will be a better year than 2014. However, 2014 will be the breakout year. One of the ways we can celebrate the Year of the Maker is to name a Maker of the Year — not just one but makers in a number of different contexts and communities
Oslo Maker of the Year
Jon Haavie and Roger Antonsen, organizers of Maker Faire Oslo, asked me to choose an Oslo Maker of the Year. While I don't enjoy identifying one maker when there are so many who do interesting work, I think it was a worthwhile exercise to pick a favorite. I discussed my choice with the organizers and they agreed with me.
I had some simple criteria for the selection. I wanted to choose a person who was enthusiastic — a true believer, as Mister Jalopy once used the phrase, and represents the core values of the maker movement. I wanted to find someone who interacted easily with the public and engaged them in making. Also I looked for some aspect of originality in what the makers were doing — something that I hadn't seen other makers doing quite the same thing way — or doing it as well. Others may develop their own criteria.
I announced the Oslo Maker of the Year at Saturday night's Maker Dinner. I gave the award to Erik Thorstensson of Gothenberg, Sweden. Erik was demonstrating a simple, modular construction system he developed. I watched young kids and adults walk up and build a structure from straws that seemed to delight them. He is part of a network of designers called Creatables. Erik has boundless energy with a flair for showmanship.
Follow Erik on Twitter – @Creatables_Erik.
While I was talking to Erik at the Faire, I watched a young girl build a structure herself, happily putting the pieces together. The intensity of her effort and the joy of her accomplishment made me truly appreciate the system that Erik has created.
Erik was demonstrating Strawbees, an open-source design which uses a die-cut machine to produce small connectors, or keys. There are a set of variations of the basic key, and each has its own die. I liked that Erik would produce the connectors on demand and even let others use the die-cut machine to create more keys from the raw materials. Erik had also evidently thought about supporting science and engineering education using Strawbees.
Through 2014, in MAKE Magazine, online and in print, we will be identifying other outstanding makers and recognizing them. I'd like to encourage every Maker Faire this year to choose one maker each and let's celebrate them.

Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels wants to make property tax relief permanent.
He wants this year's property tax caps to become permanent with a constitutional amendment, and he announced Tuesday that he wants automatic tax credits to be sent out if the state collects too much.
He says that when the state has a balanced budget and enough money in a rainy-day fund, everyone should get credited the difference.
Daniels wants them to be equally spread out, no matter how much tax you paid.
"The point is very simple," he begins. "The state would collect only what it needs to provide essential services and protect itself against the downturn and to have an adequate reserve. Above that, the money stays with the taxpayer."
To get the property tax caps into the state constitution, the general assembly would have to pass it again. Then it would go to voters to make the final decision.
His democratic challenger for governor, Jill Long Thompson, says she's glad Daniels has joined her repeated calls for tax relief.
But while those property tax caps are great for homeowners, local cities are having to work with less money.
South Bend, for example, is facing more than 20 million in budget cuts.
On Wednesday, the city council will hear how police and fire budgets, as well as their pensions and the 911 center, will deal with less money.

"Cast Members: Ed O'Neill, Ty Burrell, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Eric Stonestreet, Julie Bowen, Sofia Vergara, Sarah Hyland, Ariel Winter, Nolan Gould, and Rico Rodriguez.
Why they're so good: This cast should be in the Smithsonian as one of the best comedy troupes ever assembled. Bolstered by breakout stars Ferguson, Stonestreet, and Burrell, who've finally been given a chance to show us what they can do, Modern Family has a great mix of vets and new faces who display great chemistry no matter who is on screen."

->''Some fantasies go too far.''
-->-- '''Tagline'''
Directed by Creator/WilliamFriedkin and written and produced by Creator/JoeEszterhas, ''Jade'' is a 1995 erotic thriller starring David Caruso, who also starred in the popular cop drama TV show, ''Series/NYPDBlue'', Linda Fiorentino who starred in ''Film/TheLastSeduction'' and Chazz Palminteri, who was fresh off of receiving an Oscar nomination for ''Film/BulletsOverBroadway''.
When an important millionaire was mysteriously murdered, San Francisco attorney David Corelli (Caruso) investigates the case and the first suspect is Katrina Gavin (Fiorentino), who happens to be Corelli's ex-lover and is married to local attorney Matt Gavin (Palminteri). A web of blackmail and prostitution arises and Corelli must discover who really committed the crime before it is too late.
!!This film displays examples of:
* AssholeVictim: Kyle Medford
* BitheWay: Patrice mentions that she'd like to meet Jade because she's into women
* BoxOfficeBomb: The film was largely lambasted by critics and failed at the box office, grossing only about $9.6 million domestically over a budget of $50 million.
* BrainyBrunette: Dr Katrina Gavin (academically she's bright her common sense when it comes to her personal relationships isn't so stellar though)
* ChaseScene -- This chase scene has one running through a Chinatown parade and ends with Corelli being [[{{Narm}} knocked into the ocean bay in a more cartoonish fashion]].
* CrazyJealousGuy: Matt
* Fanservice: Linda Fiorentino doing full frontal nudity and several graphic sex scenes
* HighClassCallGirl: Patrice and [[spoiler: Katrina]]
* HomePornMovie -- Corelli receives a copy of a sex tape in a dead man's beach house.
* LoveTriangle: Matt, David and Katrina are part of one thats been going on for years
* SoundtrackDissonance -- Rites of Spring was played during the middle of the film. Also in a scene in which Corelli is examing clues about the case.
* YourCheatingHeart: Matt and [[spoiler: Katrina]]

When my son first started preschool, I'll admit I was a little apprehensive about the Doris Hale school. It wasn't in the greatest area and the playground looked small...however, I fell in love with the program! My son's teacher is AWESOME! She's so patient and really cares about her students.

text: Jul19 new intelligenceanalyticsMSLMajor League Soccerbiometricshealthcaretrainingtelemetry Major League Soccer Wants to Be First 'Smart League' Major League Soccer announced on Thursday that it will add a high-tech data-tracking system that could potentially change the face of the game by providing coaches and trainers metrics in real-time about player performance, speed, heart rate and power. MLS said it will become the world's first "smart league" when it embraces the Adidas Micoach Elite System starting in 2013. All 19 club teams — some of which have been testing the system since 2010 — will have access to the data. "The technology is entirely customizable to each player, so they can meet specific and unique goals during training based on their strengths and what they need to improve," Paul Gaudio, VP of adidas Interactive, told Mashable. "It will have a profound impact on how coaches and trainers work with players." Although the technology won't be rolled out to the league until next year, it will debut on Wednesday, July 25 during the AT&T MLS All-Star Game in Philadelphia. Here's how it works: Each professional soccer player will carry Permalink

Un joven Maradona celebra un gol con Boca / A young Maradona celebrates a goal with Boca (via daleconcomba)
Welcome back Mr. Zakuani
We spoke to journalist, digital producer and scorer of diving headers Benji Lanyado about wee, Gazza shirts and Di Canio scissor kicks.
What was your first ever football shirt?
A 1989 Hibernian home shirt. I lived in Edinburgh until I was 8, and was forced into supporting Hibs by my neighbour, who then forced me to wear his hand-me-downs. I went to Easter Road every now and then, but my strongest memory of partisanship was when, one lunchtime at school, the playground split into opposing camps, Hearts vs Hibs, and we chanted at each other across the concrete until one kid wet himself with exhilaration. It was wonderful.
What is your favourite ever football shirt?
A tough one. Probably the Gazza-era Lazio home shirt. I was addicted to Football Italia and the strange, fat, brilliant English bloke who went over there, scored a last-minute equaliser in a Rome derby (from a Beppe Signori cross), and then cried, obviously. Early 90s Italian shirts are superb, but that one stands out.
Lazio, Umbro, 1994
What is your favourite ever goal?
An obvious one I'm afraid. The Di Canio scissor kick for West Ham. Two things I remember:
1) The delayed reaction of the crowd - for at least half a second nobody celebrated, we were in shock
2) When re-watching it ad infinitum, Martin Tyler's commentary. He has a mini footballgasm. And one for luck …
3) It was Freddie Kanoute's debut for West Ham, but you didn't need to know that.
Is your favourite football shirt better than Benji's? Let us know on twitter @thefootballsc
You can share your classic football shirts by; tagging them to our facebook page, sending us a link to them on twitter, or pinning them on our Pinterest board - and we will publish the best on our blog.
Shirt of the day: Lazio, Puma, 2001/2
In honour of Hernan Crespo - courtesy of @RichardPeters from our Facebook page
Simple question: Lazio (1994) or Roma (1998)?
When Zdenek Zeman was in charge of Lazio, he liked two things; cigarettes and goals.With Lazio he created a free-scoring, free-smoking team that claimed second place, finishing the season on a five game winning streak.That run was started by a 3-0 hammering of eventual champions Juventus - perhaps Zdenek and his boys were lifted by being in Turin and getting to wear their nifty away kit.
Lazio, Umbro, 1994/5, away
This was a shirt, after all, which took the home colour of celeste, and created a completelydifferent shirt by keeping half of it exactly the same but adding a sort of lightening bolt and a slightly darker shade of blue.Lazio 1994-95 was a team of big names, powered by the goals of Signori, Casiraghi and Boksic. At the back, Alessandro Nesta was playing his first full season for the senior squad. Nesta was young, but evidently not too young to be able to break Paul Gascoigne's leg in training. That effectively ended Gazza's season. The worst part about this is that Gazza spent a lot of time during the 90s smoking, so surely Zdenek would have had huge plans for him in Rome, and Gazza could have been the final piece in Zdenek's nicotine stained jigsawpuzzle.Hoggy

There are very respectable profits to be made in affiliate marketing, as many webmasters know from experience. By using the information in this article, you will be able to turn web marketing into a profitable venture. Read on for some tips to make your affiliate promotion venture a success.
Before choosing an affiliate marketing company, figure out how that company tracks orders made on websites other than their own. If you are generating sales to that company you need to link them back to you.
Affiliate Marketing
Tell visitors up front that you are an affiliate marketer and notice the positive reaction that disclosure elicits. Affiliate marketing is no different than any other advertisement strategy: It doesn't pay to be dishonest. If your followers see that you have a reason for the affiliate marketing, they will be more responsive to using the links you provide in a positive manner.
If you want to promote your affiliate business, target your specific audience through multiple affiliate sites in your niche. By doing this, you are allowing your niche market to have a larger variety of links.
A lot of affiliates use emails to send out and receive tasks that need to be done. Checking your emails constantly takes time. To save time and to increase productivity, you should pull the points out of these emails and paste them into your Notepad or Word document. You are streamlining and organizing your work by pulling pertinent information out of the email and pasting it into a document.
Market products that are trusted and well-known. Don't rely on trends. Try to choose harder to find, popular items to advertise. It goes without saying that the more popular the product is, the more competition there will be in that marketplace. This might mean you get very little or even no profit.
Setting up a program to contact customers via text message could improve the profitability of your affiliate promotion campaign. Text services offer a lot of flexibility. You can use it for promotional purposes or to touch base with customers about existing products.
Consider any products sold by an affiliate program very carefully before you put any links on your site. You might need to teach yourself how to arrange your affiliate links, but once you know how, you will see more regular profits.
Paid advertising, such as Google Ads, is a good way to make money from online marketing programs. That can be a good way to route traffic to your website since you can choose to purchase ads that have target keywords most fitting for your product or service.
As an affiliate marketer, you must let your potential customers know what you are doing. Tell your site visitors what your affiliations are, and tell them what you want to accomplish with your site. If you are dishonest with your visitors, they may avoid your website and go to the main merchant's site to buy that product.
Using the advice you have just learned can help you with web marketing. Many of these strategies and techniques were developed and honed over time by experienced affiliate marketers, so you and your company are certain to benefit from their knowledge and skill.

If the government has Ten Commandments, the game of politics, not homeland security, would be at the top of the list. Eager to play the game, the Obama Administration pulled out of Iraq in time for Christmas as it welcomed Iran's puppets into the Oval Office. The Iraqi delegation, headed by Nouri al-Maliki, included a conspirator in Iran's terror campaigns—the Iraqi Minister of Transportation, Hadi al-Ameri.
To quash the voices of survivors and victims' families who linked al-Ameri to American deaths in the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing, the Obama administration replied, "There is no evidence of Hadi al-Ameri's involvement in any act of violence against U.S. Citizens."
Advertisement-content continues below
However, when dots are connected, they point to al-Ameri being an Iranian agent—a first-class terrorist. Ten days after al-Ameri's visit to the White House, US District Judge George B. Daniels signed a 53 page document in Havlish v. Iran that included 276 Statements of Fact and 35 Conclusions of Law in his ruling that the 9/11 attacks were the result of an "Iran-Hezbollah-al Qaeda alliance." The document showed one Abolghasem Mesbahi—who had defected years earlier after receiving a tip from a colleague that he was on the regime's kill list while working for Iran's Ministry of Information and Security (MOIS)—testified that MOIS gave material support to Hezbollah. His credible testimony included three coded messages he received in the weeks leading up to the 9/11 attacks from contacts he had inside Iran.
The case revealed that Imad Mughniyah, once Iran's notorious Hezbollah leader, was involved in coordinating and facilitating the 9/11 attacks and committed "numerous terrorist operations against American citizens." He cracked the FBI's "Most Wanted" list for twenty-one years but al-Ameri's terrorist rap sheet puts him on par with Mughniyah, whose connection with the Iranian Revolution is not without significance. Arabic translations surfaced from Al-Malaf Net in Amman, Jordan; they uncovered top-secret documents years ago that identified Al-Ameri as:
"…the most prominent identity in this equation. He possesses all the keys relating to the connections with Iran and is in charge of the strongest security authority in Iraq at present—Badr Organization… [al-Ameri] is a high-ranking member in the Central Committee of the institution, known as the Central Authority; it is the largest security/military organization in Iraq that plans and executes dozens of military and security operations against Iran's opposition in various Iraqi cities, on a daily basis. He works directly under the command of Abdel Aziz Al Hakim."
The documents show that al-Ameri's Badr is the…
Advertisement-content continues below
"Central Authority, which receives its Fatwas for assassination operations directly from Khamenei's office. Targets are specified in coordination with the command of the Iranian Ramadan Base. Hence, any agreed upon operation is executed."
One such document discusses working with the Badr terrorist forces for the purpose of liquidating opponents, controlling the media, and using weapons and provisions provided by the Iranian revolution, to combat "Anglo-American" forces.
Havlish identified Al Quds Brigade, of which al-Ameri is a member, as the "foreign division" of another defendant in Havlish, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Al Quds is responsible for overseas terrorism and named one of the "most… violent terrorist organizations in the world." Al-Ameri's membership in Al Quds was translated to include the names of agents and victims, as well as his Iranian Al Quds secret file number (10074) and bank account number (3014) into which over 2 million Iranian riyals a month was to be paid as blood monies for carrying out acts of terrorism. And if a picture is worth a thousand words, his religious obedience to Iran's Islamist regime is quite visual in that al-Ameri can be seen bowing and kissing (see video below) the hand of his Fuhrer—the Ayatollah himself. Iran's Foreign Affairs Committee of the National Council of Resistance of Iran identifies al-Ameri as having been responsible for 150 terrorist operations over a period of time during which the Khobar Towers were bombed. (Article continues below video of al-Ameri bowing and kissing hand of Ayatollah.)
