Those who are awake know truth when it is spoken. Those who chose to sleep shall never accept truth even as chains tighten around their necks. I pray that more people open their eyes, but should they fail, I will stand, I will speak not only for myself and those I love, but for all men. Freedom is not man's to take but is our gift from God. If we fail to stand for freedom of all men, we fail God. To those who mock me, I pray for you; to those who hate me, I pray for you; to those who want to silence me, I pray for you.

I think we can all learn from Senator Paul – treat this administration and progressives as the joke they are. Stay awake; pay attention to the other hand but do not fear. Laughter is the best cure for fear and it will go a long way to marginalize their ideas.

God bless you and your family, I pray that you will be safe. Thank you for having the courage to stand against the face of evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to stand is to stand. May other brave Americans follow your lead.

I have learned it is physically impossible to see others as more than yourself. So what trolls say speaks volumes. Keep them in your prayers.

everyone who is awake knows their agenda and sees through their actions – however, too many prefer to keep their head in the sand because it is easier to not face reality – which to steal a quote (I think it is from Brigette Gabriel but could be Pamela Geller) "if you keep your head in the sand, your a$$ becomes a bigger target"

I take this as a good sign – when they attack, they are afraid – we may not see it, but positive changes are happening otherwise they would not be on the attack. I believe we are closer to victory than we believe.

Unfortunately, we have raised too many kids like this – no respect for life, people or God. This country can only survive if we are a just, honorable and loving people who believe in something outside of themselves. Is he a glimpse into our future? I fear so.

NOTE: The one plank in the communist takeover of a country not completed in obama's first term is the millionaire's tax (see"How Parliament Can Play a Revolutionary Part in the Transition to Socialism" by Jan Kozak) and one of the tenants of communism is "no right to inheritance" (easiest way to accomplish this is by this tax). All this goes way beyond punishing the rich – it is about the actual takeover of this country. No conspiracy here – just facts.

It is obvious to those of us who are awake, but too many people are not awake, don't want to be awake or are too afraid to be awake. I am amazed at the responses I get from intelligent people when I try to talk about what is happening to our country. So many people honestly believe that American life will go on forever and no one is a threat. They choose not to see that freedom only exists when people are involved and educated. Too many today are neither (no matter how many years they spent in college). Pray for us.

Since the late '80s, evangelical Protestants have been arguing among themselves about male headship in marriage. They have divided into the complementarians (who call for distinct gender roles) and the egalitarians (who call for couples to discover and negotiate roles and responsibilities in marriage). These two groups have often seemed to be engaged in what academic psychologist Mary Stewart Van Leeuwen has called "proof-text poker." Each side hopes their "hand" of biblical citations will trump the other.
In recent years, male-headship advocates have taken increasing care to condemn abuse and to portray male headship as servanthood—all the while maintaining that the Bible commands men to take a leadership role in marriage. The effort seems to be paying off. (See the interview with W. Bradford Wilcox on page 44 regarding his new book, Soft Patriarchs, New Men.)
Now comes Does Christianity Teach Male Headship? The Equal-Regard Marriage and Its Critics. This collection of 11 essays lacks the polemical tone of some earlier books. This is due in large measure to the fact that most of the writers are more intent on solving a social problem than in winning an argument.
Co-editor David Blankenhorn sets up the problem. Blankenhorn, who advocates for fatherhood in a father-impoverished culture, recalls interviewing a group of African-American Pentecostal women at their church on the south side of Chicago. He asked the women, "Is the father the head of the family?" They all said yes. When he asked them what that meant, they said, "Working hard to support the family financially … leading the family in prayer at meal times … and … taking the family to church on Sundays." Blankenhorn pressed them: Aren't women ...

Have you ever faced an applicant who applies for every open position just because it's easy to do—and then complains that she wasn't chosen for any of them? A federal court made quick work of dismissing a lawsuit from one such applicant when it was clear she was overreaching.
Recent case: Sharon applied for over 290 jobs listed on Duke University's HR website. While she was interviewed for one that she appeared qualified for, she never got an offer. She sued, alleging discrimination.
The court tossed out Sharon's case, reasoning she had nothing other than her own suspicions to back up a discrimination claim. The fact that she applied for so many jobs for which she was not remotely qualified no doubt made the court's decision easier. (Thomas v. Duke University, No. 3:11-CV-00387, WD NC, 2012)

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. – A Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until Friday at 1 p.m. with heavy snow, strong winds and dangerous wind chills in Westchester County, according to the National Weather Service.
Snow accumulations of between 6 to 10 inches are predicted for Westchester before the storm is expected to move out early Friday afternoon.
Heavy snowfall and blowing and drifting snow will result in dangerous travel conditions.
Ten to 20 mile-per-hour winds from the North will gust up to 35 miles per hour.
Temperatures will be in the 20s Thursday night before falling into the teens. Wind chills will hover around the zero mark late tonight and as low as 5 to 15 below zero on Friday, which could lead to hypothermia or frostbite for those exposed.
Visibility will be less than one quarter of a mile at times.
Friday is expected to be mostly clear with a low around zero.
The outlook for Saturday calls for sunny skies and a high of 25. There is a chance of rain after noon on Sunday with highs in the mid 40s.

Hamilton: The battle between Nico and me is fierce
Lewis Hamilton had to play second fiddle to his Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg in the Monaco Grand Prix, and that includes qualifying, which clearly irked the Briton and has added fuel to the animosity that is groing between the two sole contenders for the F1 world title. Hamilton spoke of his day's graft on the streets of Monaco. How are you? Tell us a little bit about what happened on the 56th lap? You got something in your eye? Lewis Hamilton: Yeah, just through the visor… but anyway that's not important. It was a good day and really good for the team to get a one-two. You had [Daniel Ricciardo] right close behind. How was it? You started second and finished second and how are...

'US, Israel developed Flame computer virus'

WASHINGTON - The United States and Israel jointly developed the Flame computer virus that collected intelligence to help slow Iran's nuclear program, The Washington Post reported on Tuesday, citing anonymous Western officials.The so-called Flame malware aimed to map Iran's computer networks and monitor computers of Iranian officials, the newspaper said. It was designed to provide intelligence to help in a cyber campaign against Iran's nuclear program, involving the National Security Agency, the CIA and Israel's military, the Post said.The cyber campaign against Iran's nuclear program has included the use of another computer virus called Stuxnet that caused malfunctions in Iran's nuclear enrichment equipment, the newspaper said.Current and former US and Western national security officials confirmed to Reuters that the United States played a role in creating the Flame virus.Since Flame was an intelligence "collection" virus rather than a cyberwarfare program to sabotage computer systems, it required less-stringent US legal and policy review than any US involvement in offensive cyberwarfare efforts, experts told Reuters.The CIA, NSA, Pentagon, and Office of the Director of National Intelligence declined to comment.Flame is the most complex computer spying program ever discovered.Two leading computer security firms - Kaspersky Lab and Symantec Corp - have linked some of the software code in the Flame virus to the Stuxnet computer virus, which was widely believed to have been used by the United States and Israel to attack Iran's nuclear program.

ANALYSIS: Egypt condemns Israel's attacks on Hamas - with a wink
Egypt's President Abdul Fattah al-Sisi looks on as he delivers a speech in Cairo..
(photo credit:REUTERS)
Egypt has condemned the IDF's attacks on Hamas in the Gaza Strip, calling for them to stop, though in truth it is probably content that Israel is hurting a group it blames for involvement in the Islamist insurgency on its own soil.On Wednesday, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi spoke with UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon and agreed that all military action should stop, Ahram Online reported.A Foreign Ministry spokesman called on Israel to "contain the situation by ceasing all military operations, showing maximum self-restraint," the ministry's website stated on Wednesday.In fact, Cairo is probably relieved that Israel is carrying out the operation so that it does not have to do so itself. A sign of Egypt's hostility to Hamas, which states in its charter that it is a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood, is that it continues to keep the Sinai-Gaza border closed despite Israel's increasingly intense air campaign against the enclave.The decision to keep the Rafah crossing closed is a political decision, not a military one, an unnamed official in the army's spokesman's office told Mada Masr on Wednesday."There is no danger on the border between Egypt and Gaza," he said, adding that the army is aware of "what is happening to people in Gaza."In other words, Egypt is aware of the suffering of the Palestinian people in a war zone and the pummeling of Hamas by Israeli forces, yet chooses to do the Islamist movement no favors – boxing it in even as Israel intensifies its operations.As the days go by, however, the public pressure builds on Egypt to act on the Palestinians' behalf, and so belatedly on Thursday, it opened the border temporarily so that wounded Palestinians could cross and receive medical treatment in Egypt.Since Sisi took control of the country after ousting Muslim Brotherhood president Mohamed Morsi last summer, he has embarked on intensive anti-terror operations and a harsh crackdown on revolutionary Islamist movements at home.Egypt destroyed many of the tunnels that connected Egypt to Gaza and allied itself with the conservative powers in the region such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Jordan – against radical revolutionary forces who wish to topple the established order.Zvi Mazel, who served as Israel's sixth ambassador to Egypt and is a fellow at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs today and a contributor to this newspaper, told The Jerusalem Post that he thinks a channel of communication between Egypt and Hamas is open despite the hostility between them.Although Egypt banned Hamas, "geography forces them to communicate on common issues such as the Rafah passage which opens rarely."The communication is handled by Egyptian intelligence as has been done in the past, he noted."Egypt is not in a hurry to see the conflict end even though it's always dangerous to have an armed conflict on one's border," said Mazel, adding, "I don't believe that the Egyptians shed tears when Hamas is being hit by Israel."Mazel explained that Sisi's government, while condemning the IDF's raids, has been careful not to be too critical of Israel.Sisi has not made any public comments referring to Gaza, and the country's media has also been quite restrained, he continued."In the coming days Egypt will probably feel itself forced to be more active to show its empathy for 'their brethren in Palestine,'" Mazel added."There is considerable overlap of interests between the Sisi regime and Israel, although neither side likes to say so," Shadi Hamid, author of the book Temptations of Power: Islamists and Illiberal Democracy in a New Middle East and a fellow at the Brookings Institution's Saban Center for Middle East Policy, told the Post."For starters, Israel backed Sisi's ouster of Morsi, even though Morsi respected the peace treaty and didn't actually do much to support Hamas," said Hamid."But the issue here isn't so much about policies, but about trust, and Israel was never going to trust a member of the Muslim Brotherhood," he explained, adding that "Israel and Egypt now both see the Brotherhood and political Islam more generally as an existential threat."Both states share the goal of defeating the Sinai insurgency. "While elements of the Egyptian regime might sympathize with Israel's offensive against Hamas, the developments of the past few weeks are only likely to strengthen Hamas's position at home, giving it a newfound popularity as the voice of resistance, in contrast to [Palestinian Authority President] Mahmoud Abbas's 'collaboration,'" Hamid said.Hence, many of those wishing for Hamas to be pummeled may be disappointed with the results, he said.

The 8 Most Shameful Moments of Barack Obama's Presidency
8) "The private sector is doing fine:" Know what hasn't been "doing fine" for a single day since Barack Obama came into office? The private sector. So when Barack Obama bizarrely proclaimed that "the private sector is doing fine" earlier this year, Obama was further out of touch than E.T. was when he wanted to phone home.
7) Obama bows to Saudi king: If Barack Obama had spent his formative years in the United States instead of overseas, he'd know that real Americans don't bow. Moreover, no American, especially the President, should be bowing down to a dictatorial king like the one we had to overthrow in the Revolutionary War. Besides the Saudi king, Obama also continued to humiliate himself and his country by bowing to Japanese Emperor Akihito and the Chinese PM. We're lucky that the SEALs killed Osama Bin Laden as opposed to capturing him or we might have seen pictures of Obama bowing to him on MSNBC by now.
6) Son looked like Trayvon: At a time when George Zimmerman was publicly being threatened with death and white people were being beaten "For Trayvon," there was an opportunity for the President to show leadership and encourage people to calm down. Instead, after making some perfunctory remarks towards that end, Obama added fuel to the fire by noting, "If I had a son, he'd look like Trayvon." This was a follow-up to Obama's similarly foolish decision to insert himself into another local situation that didn't concern him. After his friend Henry Gates smashed his own door in and made such an ass of himself that he was arrested when the police arrived, Obama noted that he didn't know the facts, but he did know that the "police acted stupidly." He then followed that up by suggesting racism was probably to blame. Fortunately, he managed to patch over that bit of idiocy with a "beer summit" as opposed to the Trayvon Martin case where he increased the chances that someone would get killed because he was thoughtlessly shooting off his mouth.
5) Refusing to pick up illegals from Arizona: After the Obama Administration refused to enforce federal immigration law in Arizona, the state passed a tough new law that allowed local police to do the job ICE wouldn't do. Disgracefully, Barack Obama held a White House press conference where both he and Mexican President Felipe Calderon ganged up against Arizona for doing little more than enforcing the laws on the book. The Obama Administration then sued Arizona and after it didn't emerge completely victorious, simply refused to pick up illegal aliens that aren't felons from Arizona. In other words, not only is Barack refusing to enforce the law of the land, he won't allow anyone else to uphold the laws he falsely swore to uphold when he became President.
4) Persecuting the Catholic Church: Obama spat in the face of the Catholic Church and violated its constitutionally-protected 1st Amendment religious rights by demanding that it provide birth control and abortifacient drugs in its hospitals. Unless this policy is stopped, millions of Americans will pay the price as the Catholic Church closes its hospitals rather than violate its deeply-held religious beliefs in order to cater to Barack Obama's whims.
3) Passing Obamacare: Health care reform was opposed by the Republican Party and the American people despite endless lies the Obama Administration told about what a wonderful program it would be. The Obama Administration lied when it said everyone could keep their health insurance, that it wouldn't increase the deficit, when it said there were no death panels in the bill, when it said it wouldn't increase taxes, and when it said abortion wouldn't be funded with your tax dollars. All of these lies were for a program that took 500 billion dollars out of Medicare to fund a new entitlement program that will cause large numbers of doctors to quit, dramatically reduce the quality of care, and force Americans to deal with the IRS just to get health care. It's one of the single worst bills in America history that delivers an incredibly expensive new entitlement program at the point in American history where we can least afford it.
2) Obama's lawless attempt to pass the Dream Act by Fiat: After the DREAM ACT failed to make it through Congress, Barack Obama illegally decided to implement it anyway. After instructing the Department of Justice to stop following the law in regard to illegals under 30, Obama decided to issue work permits for illegals. That's an illegal act that directly contradicts the existing immigration law. It also makes little sense to give somewhere between 800,000 and 3 million foreigners work permits when every job they take will keep another American out of work in tough economic times.
1) Eric Holder held in contempt of Congress after Obama uses executive privilege: On Barack Obama's watch, the Department of Justice helped put guns into the hands of Mexican cartels and these guns were used to kill hundreds of Mexicans along with American Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry. Did Eric Holder know about this beforehand? Did Barack Obama? We don't know for sure because they've been engaged in a Nixonian cover-up. They've dragged their feet, stonewalled, and when they couldn't hold off any longer, Obama declared executive privilege in an attempt to hide the truth about how deeply his administration is tied to the deaths of 300 plus people. Obama's behavior was so sleazy that 17 House Democrats felt compelled to vote with Republicans to find Eric Holder in contempt of Congress. Say what you want about Watergate, but at least no one was killed during the scandal, which is something that can't be said about Obama's Fast and Furious debacle.

COLUMBUS, Ind. - A central Indiana hospital is about to start work on an expansion project that was first planned before it was badly damaged in flooding six years ago.
The $30 million project at Columbus Regional Hospital will expand its emergency department and cancer center.
Hospital CEO Jim Bickel tells The Republic the emergency department's patient volume far exceeds what it was designed to handle and the cancer center has experienced a steady growth in the number of patients. The expansion is expected to be complete by the end of next year.
The hospital had planned a larger expansion project before 2008 flash flooding of its first floor and basement, which forced its evacuation and closure for several months.

Official Amendments to Lokpal and Lokayuktas Bill, 2011
The Union Cabinet has approved the proposals submitted by the Department of Personnel & Training for moving official amendments to the Lokpal and Lokayuktas Bill, 2011 as reported by the Select Committee of Rajya Sabha.
The Lokpal and Lokayuktas Bill, 2011 was passed by the Lok Sabha on 27th December, 2011. The Bill was taken up for discussion and passing in the Rajya Sabha on 29.12.2011. Discussions remained inconclusive. Thereafter, the Rajya Sabha adopted a motion on 21.05.2012 to refer the Bill to a Select Committee of the Rajya Sabha for examination and report.
The Select Committee submitted its report to the Rajya Sabha on 23.11.2012. The Select Committee has, in its Report, made recommendations suggesting amendments to Clause 3(4), 4(1 )(e), 14(1)(g), 14(1)(h), 20(1), 20(2), 20(3), 20(5), 20(6), 20(7), 20(8), 23, 25, 37, 46, 63-97 and Part-II of the Schedule. The Committee has also recommended consequential amendments in other provisions of the Bill as may be necessary.
Significantly, the Committee has recommended to do away with Part-III of the Bill which deals with setting up of the Lokayukta in the States. The Committee has recommended replacement of Part-Ill of the Bill with a new Section 63 which provides for setting up of the institution of Lokayukta through enactment of a law by the State Legislature within a period of 365 days from the date of commencement of the Act. Government has decided to accept this recommendation.
Some of the other important recommendations made by the Committee and decisions taken by the Government on them are as follows:
(a) In clause 3(4) of the Bill (dealing with disqualifications for becoming Member of Lokpal), the Select Committee has recommended that the words "connected with any political party" may be replaced by the words "affiliated with any political party", so as to overcome the ambiguity associated with the word "connected with any political party'". Government has decided to accept this recommendation.
(b) In clause 4(1 )(e) of the Bill (composition of the Selection Committee for selection of Lokpal), the Select Committee has recommended that the fifth member of the Selection Committee (i.e., eminent jurist) may be nominated by the President on the basis of recommendation of the first four members of the Selection Committee (viz.. Prime Minister, Speaker (Lok Sabha), Leader of Opposition (Lok Sabha) and Chief Justice of India). Government has decided to accept this recommendation.
(c) The Select Committee has recommended exclusion of bodies and institutions receiving donations from the public from the purview of Lokpal. Since bodies receiving donations from the public were also covered in the original Lokpal Bill, 2011 and the Department related Parliamentary Standing Committee had also endorsed this inclusion and had additionally, recommended the inclusion of entities receiving donations from foreign sources under the Foreign Contributions Regulation Act (FCRA), Government has decided not to accept this recommendation and seek an official amendment in the Bill as reported by the Select Committee. However, having regard to Section 10(23BBA) of the Income Tax Act (regarding exemption of income of bodies /authorities established under Central or Provincial Act for administration of public religious or charitable trusts or endowments or societies for religious or charitable purposes registered under Societies Registration Act), Government has decided to exempt only such bodies or authorities established, constituted or appointed by or under any Central or State or Provincial Act providing for administration of public religious or charitable trusts or endowments or societies for religious or charitable purposes registered under the Societies Registration Act.
(d) In clause 20(1) of the Bill, the Select Committee has recommended that the Lokpal should be given the power to order an investigation straightaway (without first ordering a preliminary inquiry) in case Lokpal finds that a prima facie case exists. Government has decided to accept this recommendation subject to the modification that the Lokpal should, before coming to a conclusion that there exists a prima facie case for entrusting the matter for investigation, call for the explanation of the public servant and only then decide whether there exists a prima facie case for ordering investigation.
(e) The Committee has recommended that in clause 20(2) of the Bill, the seeking of comments from the public servant during the preliminary inquiry should not be mandatory and has accordingly suggested the addition of the word "may" in the said clause. As the affording of an opportunity to the public servant and to the government/competent authority at this stage, would help clear doubts in several cases and would substantially reduce the number of cases going for regular investigation. Government has decided to oppose this recommendation of the Select Committee and move an official amendment for the purpose. Similar recommendation of the Select Committee to dispense with opportunity of hearing to the public servant before ordering regular investigation by the Lokpal in clause 20(3) of the Bill, is also proposed not to be accepted.
(f) The Select Committee has recommended that the power to grant sanction for prosecution of public servants could be shifted to the Lokpal in place of the Government. The Select Committee has also recommended that Lokpal may be required to seek comments of the competent authority and the public servant before taking such decision. Government has decided to accept this recommendation.
(g) The Select Committee has recommended a number of amendments in the Bill with a view to strengthening the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), including (i) the setting up of a Directorate of Prosecution headed by a Director of Prosecution under the overall control of Director, CBI, (ii) the appointment of the Director of Prosecution on the recommendation of the Central Vigilance Commission, (iii) maintenance of a panel of advocates by CBI, other than Government Advocates, with the consent of the Lokpal for handling Lokpal referred cases, (iv) transfer of officers of CBI investigating cases referred by Lokpal with the approval of Lokpal, (v) provision of adequate funds to CBI for investigating cases referred by Lokpal, etc. Government has decided to accept all these recommendations except one. i.e. seeking approval of Lokpal for transfer of officers of CBI investigating cases referred by Lokpal, as it would, in Government's view, affect the smooth functioning of the CBI.

Hi Haters. Would you be upset if your kids saw a play about two male penguins raising a baby penguin together? Or would the fact that the play was based on a real incident stop you from being narrow minded?
Via the Statesman.com:
A University of Texas play about two male penguin parents has ruffled feathers at the Austin school district, prompting the cancellation of 10 scheduled performances at Austin elementary schools.
Written by UT theater graduate student Emily Freeman, "And Then Came Tango" is a play about Roy and Silo, real penguins at New York's Central Park Zoo who were given a fertilized egg and raised the hatchling, Tango, together.
UT students first performed the play for second-graders at Lee Elementary School in Central Austin in October. District officials raised concerns about age appropriateness and suspended the play, finally canceling it at the end of the month.
This is the first time the district has canceled a UT performance.
"The subject matter communicated in the play is a topic that Austin ISD believes should be examined by parents/guardians who will discuss with their elementary school age children at a time deemed appropriate by the parents/guardians," Greg Goodman, the Austin school district's fine arts director, said in a letter to UT's Coleman Jennings, the head of the university's youth theater program.
The Austin school district has routinely allowed UT students to perform their works in schools to satisfy degree requirements. Freeman said she was disappointed about the cancellation of her play and said the work was meant to communicate messages of fairness, equality and love.
"The play is about different families," and under state teaching standards, that's appropriate for kindergarten, Freeman said, referring to state curriculum standards. "I can't see the argument that it's not age appropriate for kids in second and third grade."
She said the cast and crew have performed the play for private schools in the area, as well as at Round Rock High School and Del Valle Middle School.
Jonathan Saenz, president of the conservative Texas Values group, said he believes the district made the right decision.
"We define marriage very clearly in the state of Texas. So if you have a play that tries to push and promote a different marriage definition, which is clearly illegal, it leads students to ask questions about it, and it leads to the discussion of sex," Saenz said.
Some schools and advocacy groups, including the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender group Family by Choice, have agreed to sponsor free performances of the show.
Carmel Drewes, whose son attends Ridgetop Elementary School in Central Austin, said the district overreacted and said she hopes her son will have the opportunity to see the play.
"The more that kids are encountering various symbolism and representations of family structure, the more normal it becomes," Drewes said.
Freeman said she is working on what she could do differently to eventually show the play in the Austin school district.
Is the school district hating or just protecting the kids from thinking about sexuality too soon?

Reports: Kevin Ollie discusses new deal with UConn that could double his annual salary
May 2, 2014, 6:40 PM EST
UConn head coach Kevin Ollie had large shoes to fill when he replaced former head coach Jim Calhoun before the 2012-13 season, but the former Huskie and NBA journeyman passed every test with flying colors in leading UConn to the 2014 National Title.
Now, Ollie will reportedly be rewarded with a new contract, as the 41-year-old head coach and UConn officials begin to discuss the parameters of a new contract, according to multiple reports.
According to a report from ESPN's Andy Katz, Ollie could see his salary double from the $1.25 million that he made during the 2013-14 season. Ollie was on a seven month contract with the Huskies in his first season before UConn gave him a five-year deal worth $7.5 million in December of 2012.
Katz is reporting that UConn could pay Ollie somewhere between $2.4 million and $2.6 million annually with the new deal, as the Huskies look to reward Ollie for winning a national championship while also making him the highest paid head coach in the American Athletic Conference.
But there's another big reason why UConn could be re-working Ollie's deal: The lure of the NBA.
Reports surfaced earlier this week that Ollie could be pursued by the Los Angeles Lakers for their head coaching job, but Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski is reporting that no NBA team has formally reached out to get in contact with Ollie.
The Lakers previously paid former head coach Mike D'Antoni $12 million over three years, so money won't be the reason Ollie turns them down if they choose to pursue him, but the UConn head coach is fiercely loyal and would need a significant reason to leave his alma mater for the NBA, according to Wojnarowski.
Other NBA teams will also have interest in Ollie if their head coaching jobs open up — and Ollie will listen, according to Wojnarowski — but it will certainly take a lot to get him to leave Connecticut.
So if you're Kevin Ollie, do you stay at your alma mater where you just won a national championship or do you bolt for the NBA when your stock is the perhaps the highest it will ever be?
If Ollie gets any serious interest or an offer from the Lakers — or anyone else in the NBA — that will be the big question.

Diaper Station, submitted by ghetto. Not too long ago I highlighted a site that featured photographs of grown men wearing diapers. I've never given a second thought about an ALOD before, but suddenly I feel bad about that one. Why? Because I completely disenfranchised all of the full grown women out there that have lost touch with reality.
To be fair, there's much more than just pictures on Diaper Station. There's also a bunch of shit you can buy. They have everything from diapers to cribs to hypnosis cds, which I assume are to help convince yourself that there's nothing wrong with you.

Officials: Noise ordinance reaches final vote
A final reading and vote was reached on a noise ordinance that would see drivers losing stereo equipment.
The Greenville County Council passed the third and final reading of an ordinance that changes how those who violate the current noise law will be punished.
In Greenville County, you get two warnings to turn your car stereo down if it's more than 70 decibels.
The new ordinance passed with a unanimous vote on Tuesday night, meaning on the third strike you'll have to appear before a judge.
Those found guilty those in violation will have seven days to turn their equipment into the Greenville County Sheriff's Office.
The new ordinance will not go in to effect until after the next council meeting in two weeks, in case any council members reconsider their vote.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Light the Night a go despite wet weather
Despite the wet conditions outside, the inaugural Light the Night event is still on schedule to illuminate The Forks tonight.
Approximately 500 people are expected to come together at the downtown meeting place to help end blood cancers. Registration opens at 5 p.m., with the walk beginning at 7 p.m.
Groups of friends, family and coworkers have already raised over $130,000. Participants will hold a variety of illuminated paper lanterns: a gold lantern is held in memory of a loved one, a red lantern representing support and a white lantern is held by survivors.
A fundraising campaign to support the mission of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada (LLSC), Light the Night aims to raise awareness to cure blood cancers and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.
Light The Night is expected to raise more than $5 million across Canada in 2013.
