Has Kobe Bryant Become Too Obsessed with Passing Michael Jordan in Scoring?
At this point, it's inevitable that Kobe Bryant will pass Michael Jordan on the all-time scoring list.
Bryant has always been focused on modeling his game after MJ's, from Kobe's chase of Jordan's six rings to being as competitive as him on the court to mimicking his jump shot and even using MJ's famous tongue-wag on drives to the hoop.
Is Kobe's only mindset to pass Jordan's scoring total? What is the explanation for Kobe's high volume of shot attempts? What example is Kobe trying to set for this Los Angeles Lakers team?
Watch as Adam Lefkoe asks Bleacher Report's Kevin Ding if Kobe is too focused on chasing Jordan in the video above.

Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal Shake Hands, Hug Before Lakers-Warriors Game
There was a nice little reunion before Sunday night's Golden State Warriors-Los Angeles Lakers game at the Staples Center.
Before the game, former teammates Shaquille O'Neal and Kobe Bryant ran into each other and had a nice exchange. The two shook hands and even shared a friendly hug.
Bryant and O'Neal were teammates on the Lakers from 1996 to 2004 and teamed up to win three championships. They formed a dynamic duo on the court, and it looks like they were happy to see each other on this night.

Kobe Bryant Hero Ball All Los Angeles Lakers Have and Sunday NBA Takeaways
In a manner of speaking, Kobe Bryant bounced back. The Los Angeles Lakers, though, fell woefully flat.
After slogging through an illness-induced 1-of-14 shooting night against the San Antonio Spurs on Nov. 14, Bryant was a whole lot more aggressive against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday. He poured in 44 points on 15-of-34 shooting in 31 minutes.
Content to let Bryant fire away, the Warriors absolutely crushed the Lakers. They opened up a 74-55 halftime lead and cruised to a final score of 136-115. Golden State had 115 points by the end of the third quarter, and getting there meant breaking a franchise record, per Bay Area News Group's Diamond Leung:
The story, though, was Bryant.
This is why the Lakers are worth watching right now: to see how fearsome Kobe's pride is, how maniacally he'll fight against overwhelming odds with virtually no help at all. Nobody can knock Kobe's effort in this one, but it was clear from the very early stages that his remarkable exertion would be for naught.
The Warriors got whatever they wanted on offense, and Stephen Curry had the easiest 30-point, 15-assist night imaginable. Andrew Bogut went for 15 points, 10 rebounds and four assists on 7-of-9 shooting in just 21 minutes.
Six Dubs reached double figures, and the team connected on 53.5 percent of its shots from the field as the Lakers offered zero resistance in both the half court and transition.
The final margin of victory was 21 points, but it may as well have been 50. The Lakers had no chance in this one.
Yet, Bryant gave it everything he had—fueled by whatever unquenchable fire keeps him going and the total passivity of his teammates (in nearly equal measure).
You have to wonder how long this can go on. "This" being Bryant raging against entire teams by himself in battles that are over almost as soon as they begin. Can Byron Scott convince him to move the ball, play fewer minutes or do something (anything!) to fuel L.A.'s defense?
Would we want him to? Grantland's netw3rk was very descriptive in describing this Lakers team:
After all, Kobe Bryant was the reason a wire-to-wire blowout was the most compelling story of the night. The Lakers are a one-man show in every sense of the term, and whether that show is a comedy or tragedy probably depends on how much purple and gold you've got in your closet.
The bizarre story continues for the 1-9 Lakers with three straight roadies, including trips to Houston and Dallas. In 66 years of existence between Minneapolis and L.A., the Lakers have never had a worse record in their first 10 games.
And they've rarely been more interesting.
Absorb what's happening with Bryant and the Lakers this year and take notes so you can explain to your grandchildren why a team getting annihilated every time out is such fascinating theater.

Bucks Establish Clear Defensive Identity at Heat's Expense
It's been a while since anyone genuinely feared the Deer, but after a 2-of-17 shooting performance in a 91-84 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, Miami Heat big man Chris Bosh will be seeing antlers in his nightmares.
The Bucks continued their early-season trend of shutting down the opposition, limiting the Heat to 41.1 percent shooting on the night and, of course, making Bosh's evening particularly rough. Without the assistance of Dwyane Wade, who sat out with a sore hamstring, Bosh drew the full focus of a Bucks defense that came into the contest with a top-five defensive rating, per NBA.com. ESPN.com's Michael Wallace shared Bosh's comments regarding playing without Wade and the need to play better to assist the team because of Wade's absence:
Milwaukee now sits at an even 5-5 on the year, as does Miami.
The difference, of course, is that the youthful Bucks are loaded with young talent and are trending upward.
Giannis Antetokounmpo furnished a flash forward of what the Bucks offense might someday look like in the early going, running an easy pick-and-roll to set up rookie Jabari Parker for a jumper. Then, he took care of things himself…emphatically:
One of Milwaukee's greatest challenges is figuring out how to use Antetokounmpo, a player so raw and so multifaceted in his skills that every avenue of development appears to be open. This is a good problem, and the solution may be simply giving the 19-year-old the ball in space and letting him decide what to do with it.
For all the Bucks' promise, there's still a natural wet-behind-the-ears quality to the club. For every solid play Brandon Knight (who had a game-high 20 points) made down the stretch to hold off the Heat's comeback attempts, there were instances of inexperience—such as Parker wasting two consecutive quick possessions with ill-advised fourth-quarter attacks when what the Bucks really needed was to run some clock.
Late mistakes like Parker's are to be expected, and all's well that ends well as far as Milwaukee's concerned. Besides, what mattered most was the continued defensive stinginess. The rangy Bucks seemed to contest everything, and though Jason Kidd's club had only one blocked shot on the night, Miami converted just one shot in the restricted area after halftime.
This was a rough one for the Heat, and Bosh got a real dose of the downside of life as an alpha. In an odd way, Bosh deserves credit for continuing to shoot, even though his jumper was clearly off and the Bucks were zeroed in specifically on him. His only healthy marquee teammate, Luol Deng (3-of-11 on the night), wasn't up to the challenge of breaking down Milwaukee's D either.
The Heat have now dropped three straight—a disturbing trend for them that presents an opportunity for other high-seed seekers in the East, as noted by Bleacher Report's Ethan J. Skolnick:
Milwaukee will take on the New York Knicks before visiting the Brooklyn Nets at the Barclays Center in a back-to-back later this week. All smiles and sitting at .500, we'll see if that defense travels.
Mile-High Nuggets Hit New Low, Knicks Snap Skid
Speaking of trips to New York, the Denver Nuggets did not enjoy theirs.
Carmelo Anthony and J.R. Smith put up matching 28-point efforts, hitting a combined 20-of-30 shots from the field as the New York Knicks smashed a reeling Nuggets club by a final score of 109-93. The win snapped a seven-game slide for the Knicks, giving head coach Derek Fisher a brief respite before New York hits the road for five of its next six.
For the Nuggets, well…it's hard to see a silver lining in this one.
Now sitting at 2-7 and boasting a bottom-five net rating of minus-6.2 points per 100 possessions, Brian Shaw's crew is circling the drain. After a spirited first quarter that included six made triples, the Nugs imploded in the second period.
New York's advantage in that horrendous 12-minute span: 31-8. Denver made just one field goal in the quarter.
It's not just that the Nuggets aren't hitting shots this season; it's that the offense lacks the flow and secondary options necessary to create shots worth taking. And yes, it would seem Shaw's seat might be getting a little toastier. SB Nation's Doug Eberhardt noted the Nuggets are "not being put in position to succeed":
Denver shot 39 percent on the night, and even its better scorers—such as Kenneth Faried, who put up 16 on 7-of-9 shooting, felt the critics' wrath for their work in other areas. Charlie Yao of RoundBallMiningCompany.com shared his critique:
We've been pretty negative to this point, so here's something fun: JaVale McGee air-balled a free throw!
Moving on.
Full of Sound and Fury…
…signifying very, very few points.
James Harden's latest meeting with his former team must have been a confusing affair. First, he shows up expecting to see some familiar pals sporting Oklahoma City Thunder jerseys, only to find Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook in street clothes.
And whatever potentially nostalgic vibes he might have otherwise felt were quickly consumed by some seriously negative mojo. This one was emotional, and it didn't take long for tempers on both sides to ignite.
Chippiness pervaded the action, as world-class irritants—led by Houston's Patrick Beverley and OKC's Steven Adams—plied their trades in an atmosphere of frustration and barely contained animosity. Beverley very nearly crossed a line, though, as seen in this GIF shared by SI.com's Ben Golliver:
This one had it all: technical fouls, Adams inducing a Trevor Ariza shove by utilizing his trademark "hold onto the guy and wait for him to get mad" tactic, Scott Brooks running onto the floor to bark at Beverley, Durant shouting NSFW challenges at Dwight Howard from the pine, a flagrant foul by Nick Collison…the list goes on and on and on.
You'll note there hasn't been much discussion of actual basketball yet. That's because the game itself was borderline unwatchable. Both teams shot under 30 percent from the field, and the final tally of 69-65 (Houston "won") looked like a score from early in the third quarter of a normal game.
Combined, the Rockets and Thunder amassed 43 made field goals and 29 turnovers.
It. Was. Rough.

NBA Trade Rumors: Latest Buzz Surrounding Kobe Bryant and Rajon Rondo
It's hard to feel sorry for Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics fans considering the two franchises basically had a monopoly on the Larry O'Brien Trophy for so many years.
However, the 2014-15 season is not going to be pretty for either legendary team. Neither squad will reach the postseason, and trade rumors will likely circulate around both franchises all year, even for the superstar players.
With that in mind, read on to see the latest on Kobe Bryant and Rajon Rondo.
Kobe Bryant
Mitch Lawrence of Forbes provided an update on Bryant:
"But from what we can tell, talking to industry sources familiar with the Lakers' thinking, No. 24 isn't going anywhere. He's got a no-trade clause and the Lakers have a no-trade mindset."
Lawrence also passed along a quote from an NBA team president that would seem to suggest the same thing:
"I don't see them trading Kobe, not at all. The Lakers almost have to keep him, as much for business reasons as anything else, and I believe that's what they're going to do."
Those business reasons are important since the Lakers are not going to compete for a playoff spot this season. Bryant is the main draw at the box office, and Los Angeles is a town built on stars. All those celebrities sitting courtside at the Staples Center, as well as those tuning in to the television broadcasts, would be less inclined to follow the Lakers without Mr. Bryant.
That would be a problem for the NBA's second-most valuable franchise (behind only the New York Knicks, per Lawrence).
What's more, there probably aren't a lot of teams lining up to trade for Bryant given his $48.5 million contract and age (36 years old).
The Knicks have been discussed because of his familiarity with the triangle offense and coach Derek Fisher, but New York is rebuilding this season. Giving up young or future assets for an aging superstar is not how you go about building a championship contender, even if that superstar is Bryant.
Bryant will be a Laker the rest of his career.
Rajon Rondo
Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated provided an update on Rondo through a quote from an Eastern Conference executive:
I don't know how high it is. He is a free agent at the end of the year. A team that trades for him will have half a season to convince him to stay. He has to be in a city that he wants to be in. If he didn't get hurt last year his value would have been higher then. A team would have had a year and a half and convince him to stay. And I don't know how many teams truly need a starting point guard. Houston needs one. The Lakers. But if you're the Lakers, why would you give up anything for him now when you can try to sign him this summer?
Rondo may be the superstar in Boston and the biggest draw for the team, but the Celtics are in full-blown rebuild mode.
They landed Marcus Smart and James Young in the last draft and have Jared Sullinger as a promising young big man down low. The Celtics are still a couple of pieces away from having a formidable core that will develop together, and Rondo is the best trade chip they have at their disposal.
Even if the Celtics didn't get any notable young players back in a Rondo trade (which they probably would), they could get draft picks to help in the future.
Plus, trading Rondo would open up the point guard spot for Smart so that the Celtics can see what they fully have in the Oklahoma State product. Smart will be the eventual starting point guard for the Celtics, so the more experience he can accumulate as a rookie, the better off he will be in the long term.
Rondo is averaging 10.1 points, 12 assists and 8.1 rebounds a game in the early going and is a walking triple-double threat every time he takes the floor.
That early season performance is exactly what the Celtics need if they are going to trade him away. Rondo is an excellent player, but he represents the past for Boston.
It's time to look toward the future.

Kobe Bryant Illness: Updates on Lakers Star's Status and Recovery
Kobe Bryant made just a single shot out of 14 attempts and finished with nine points during the Los Angeles Lakers' loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Friday night. Now it appears a likely viral illness played a role in the shockingly poor shooting night for the superstar guard.
Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News reports the team isn't exactly sure what the issue is, but believe it's a viral infection of some kind. He also passed along comments from head coach Byron Scott about the situation.
"He wasn't feeling too well. I don't know what it is," Scott said. "I don't know if it's a cold. I don't know to be honest with you. But I know he's not feeling well."
The report also included remarks from Bryant about his body not being able to recover quite as quickly at this stage of his career.
"Tonight was one of those nights where it really makes me remember the challenge of being 36 and 19 years in and your body won't respond," he said. "You're used to fighting through those things and this helps me really remember exactly what I'm facing. It's tough."
The good news for the Lakers is that it doesn't sound like an ailment that's going to keep Bryant sidelined for any type of extended stretch. But with three games over the next five days, the amount of recovery time will be limited.

Beck/Bucher: Imagining the Ideal Kobe Bryant Trade Scenarios
Kobe Bryant has been and probably always will be a Los Angeles Laker. Currently under a 2 year and $48.5 million contract, it would seem implausible to find Kobe Bryant wearing another jersey other than purple and gold.
However, if Kobe were traded, which teams would be interested? Which teams would benefit from having a 36-year old Kobe Bryant?
Watch as Howard Beck and Ric Bucher debate what Kobe Bryant trades would be intriguing to see happen and which team would say no in the video above.

Kobe Bryant: I'm 'Jealous' Of Tim Duncan's Career Stability With Spurs
Kobe Bryant envies Tim Duncan.
Both players have five championships — Bryant with the Los Angeles Lakers and Duncan with the San Antonio Spurs — and both are considered all-time greats. But Duncan has had stability throughout his illustrious career, whereas Bryant has experienced ample roster and coaching changes.
"I can't express to you how much I'm jealous," Bryant recently told Mark Medina of the Los Angeles Daily News. "I've been up and down."
Bryant has played with his fair share of good players, including Shaquille O'Neal, one of the most dominating big men in NBA history. There certainly has been more fluidity to his situation, though, which is something Duncan willingly will admit.
Duncan and head coach Gregg Popovich are the glue that holds the Spurs together, but Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili also have been instrumental in San Antonio's success.
"I'm in a system that allows me to play well," Duncan told Medina. "With the kind of teammates I have and players we put toget

Why We Should All Relish the Kobe Bryant Show
Basketball is entertainment, and Kobe Bryant is the best show in town. That has to be the starting point, or we'll get nowhere.
If you keep those ideas in mind, it's harder to get bogged down in the weird outrage surrounding Bryant's crazy shot totals and the broader truth that his presence does more harm than good to the Lakers' long-term health.
Kobe's desire to dominate on his terms is phenomenally interesting on a number of levels—especially if you like digging for universal truths and real-life lessons in something as inherently silly as a game played by adults for money.
It's also nice if you're paid to think about basketball, an unserious thing, in a serious way. Bryant is nothing if not endlessly analyzable.
But when you get caught up arguing about Bryant's play, his impact on his team and whether what he's doing is right or wrong, you're really just trying to say something you think is important.
And it's ridiculous to use basketball for that purpose.
There are two extremes to this. Some laud his loyalty, while others chide his selfishness. Everybody has an opinion, and everybody seems to use Bryant as a tool to explain something bigger.
Forget all that. Toss out the lessons you're trying to learn (or teach) from what Bryant's doing. Dispense with the high-minded criticism, the stubborn devotion and whatever other rationales are in play. Unburden yourself.
And consider just one truth in place of all that stuff: This. Is. Fun.
We'll never see a single-minded basketball monster like Kobe get away with something like this again. It's fascinating—surreal, even—and we should be drinking it in, bathing in the wild absurdity of a player turning a team game into a one-man show.
Bryant leads the league in scoring despite posting career lows in efficiency. He's taken more shots than anyone else in the NBA, connecting at a 38.8 percent clip—for a terrible team with no hope of those shots actually meaning anything.
Rapidly approaching his basketball expiration date, Kobe is screaming into the void. And it is incredible to watch. Just ask his teammates, who have deferred to him out of fear, or maybe reverence. It doesn't really matter which.
"I think there was a timeout last game where I pointed at Kobe and I said, 'I know how great this guy is, but you guys have got to play basketball,'" head coach Byron Scott said, per Baxter Holmes of ESPN.com. "'You can't look at him every single time and try to give him the ball. You've got to take shots that are there. You can't pass up shots.'"
If you can get past the tragedy of it all, of a formerly great franchise listing drunkenly, fixed to Bryant's anchor of a two-year contract with no place to go, the Lakers are the most compelling watch in the NBA. Because we will never see anything like this again.
Analytics won't let it happen; coaches and front offices all know iso-ball doesn't work, especially not in the staggering volume with which Bryant is employing it.
And, of course, we'll never have another Kobe, another player with the combination of elite talent, hard-earned fan worship and singular disregard for the team concept.
This is a "step back and think about what's actually happening" moment in NBA history. It's just not the kind we typically celebrate.
Per Albert Burneko of Deadspin:
Michael Jordan is Michael Jordan because he could not be anybody else; Kobe Bryant is Kobe Bryant because he could not be Michael Jordan, but never stopped trying. That might seem like a putdown, and if it works as one, Kobe probably deserves it, but I'd be a liar if I denied finding something to admire in that 13,421 number. We should all be silly and liberated enough to fire up 13,421 bricks.
If everyone operated like Bryant on a basketball court, we'd have mass chaos. Each of us would have an unshakable belief in our own primacy, our own alpha dog-ness. It'd never work in the real world.
But Bryant, in many ways, doesn't operate in reality.
"He still believes he can be the best player in the league every time he steps on the court," Carlos Boozer told Arash Markazi of ESPN.com.
That Bryant is not the game's best player hardly matters. What matters is what he's doing with that semi-delusional confidence.
Kobe is playing for nothing. He has zero to prove. But he spends his time on the court acting as though everything hangs in the balance and, more critically, that he's the only one capable of doing anything.
Maybe that feels particularly selfish—even for Bryant. But B/R's Kevin Ding suggests it's merely part of Kobe's deeply embedded code:
And we're being reminded now that what is more important to Bryant than winning championships is staying true to the mindset that wins championships. That is what he can hang on to, no matter who is or isn't on this Lakers team, and that is what he can take pride in even if he never gets to play another playoff game.
For Bryant, the winning is in the trying. The success is the struggle.
This is fiction we're watching: a hero with a code fighting against unbeatable foes (time and age) and unconquerable odds (the Western Conference). If every NBA team were a movie, wouldn't you watch the one starring Bryant and the Lakers? The one with the classic narrative, the grizzled protagonist going out with guns blazing?
This fiction is real. It's happening right now.
And that's really what sports are supposed to be anyway—a diversion from the real world.
Bryant, in his own way, is giving us exactly what we want and more than we could have possibly expected all at once.
So let's all step back and think about this differently. From now on, let's recognize what's happening for what it is. Without agendas or self-serious analysis. The next time Bryant tosses up 35 shots in a loss, or catches fire for an entire quarter, relish it. Don't think about the numbers or the analytics or anything else. Just think about how entertained you are.
We can be as earnest and pensive as we want when talking about the other 400-something players and 29 teams in the league. When it comes to Kobe and the Lakers, why don't we just sit back and enjoy the show?
After all, something this improbable, this oddly inspiring, can't last forever.

Dwight Howard Was 'Hurt and Disappointed' by Kobe Bryant in LA
The past few years have, perhaps unfairly, conditioned us not to sympathize with Dwight Howard.
We think of him as the malcontent who sloppily forced his way off of the Orlando Magic, only to clash with Kobe Bryant in a failed trip to the Los Angeles Lakers. But one of the surprising achievements of his new Epix documentary, Dwight Howard: In the Moment, is its credible portrayal of D12 as a well-meaning, naive kid who too often fell victim to his own eagerness to please.
Howard's comments on the messy year he spent with Bryant and the Lakers drove that point home:
Before I got to the Lakers, I would talk to [Bryant]. He would really help me out on the low about how to become everything that I said I wanted to be. And I looked up to him. … I just felt so hurt and disappointed in the fact that the guy I was expecting to be somebody who was going to pass the torch, somebody that would say, 'Dwight, I'll take you under my wing and I'll show you how to get it done'…there was none of that.
Howard typically traffics in silliness, and you can't look past the unabashedly pro-Dwight slant to the entire film. But as Howard explains his feelings on the ugly two-year saga that sent him from Orlando to Los Angeles to Houston, you can sense the authenticity of the regret and pain he felt during that period.
Howard's intense desire to be liked comes through strongly in the documentary. He's a people-pleaser, always smiling and joking in a way that naturally infects those around him. Knowing that, it's easy to understand how rough treatment from someone Howard admittedly idolized would have deeply wounded him.
At the same time, Dwight is aware of the wounds his decisions caused for others—particularly his coach with the Orlando Magic, Stan Van Gundy.
In addition to admitting he asked Magic management to fire SVG, Howard also took blame for the way things ended with his first NBA team: "I know people might judge me for some of the mistakes I've had, but I'm not perfect. You know, looking back on it, maybe I could have done it a different way with Stan. I had to face my mistakes. I had to own up to them and not run from them."
With Orlando and L.A. in his rear-view mirror, Howard—now fully recovered from the 2012 back injury that his doctor described as "potentially completely career-ending"—is looking ahead. Although his play this season has resembled something from his dominant past.
Healthy, happy and in a situation where he's again beloved, D12 seems at peace.
"I needed to go through some things, some tests. Would I want to go through all this stuff again? No. But I also believe that you need to go through those tough times to figure out who you are," Howard said.
You can bet Houston is very happy with who Howard is now: a fearsome force on both ends who no longer has to apologize for being a little goofy. Dwight is himself again, and because of that, the Rockets look every inch the contender. As long as its big man stays healthy, Houston can count on elite defense to complement its already scary offensive attack.
"There's some good parts of Dwight that the world still hasn't seen yet," D12 says to conclude the film.
If that's true, the Rockets are going to be in excellent shape going forward.

Wetter winters may increase river pollution
Story supplied by LU Press Office
Warmer, wetter winters could lower the quality of our rivers, according to warnings from environmental scientists.
As farmers try to cope with waterlogged soil, following one of the wettest Januaries recorded since rainfall records began in 1910, a Lancaster University-led team of researchers has begun work on a large new collaborative project to help understand nutrient runoff from agricultural land and work out how it affects the quality of our rivers.
Professor Phil Haygarth, of the Lancaster Environment Centre, is leading the three-year, Natural Environment Research Council-funded study.
The project - Nutrients in Catchments to 2050 - involves researchers at Lancaster University, the Met Office Hadley Centre, Bangor University and Liverpool University and has associated partners at the James Hutton Institute, University of East Anglia , Anglia Ruskin University and Rothamsted Research.
Professor Haygarth said, if winters continued to be warmer and wetter as predicted, increased rainfall could increase water pollution from agricultural land.
Nutrients, such as phosphorus and nitrogen are essential to plant and animal growth, but too many nutrients cause excessive plant growth and algal blooms in rivers and lakes. These suffocate fish and other organisms and require costly remediation by water supply companies.
Fertilisers and manures washed off in storms are a major source of nutrients, with more than 60% of the nitrogen and 25% of the phosphorus in our rivers coming from agriculture.
"Most of this nutrient transport occurs in a few large and intense rain events, particularly if these coincide with periods of bare soil or recently applied manure or fertiliser," said Professor Haygarth. "If future climate trends suggest more frequent, more extreme rainfall events, then nutrient runoff could increase, unless we plan land management activities to account for this."
New data, recorded every half hour by the Eden Demonstration Test Catchment programme, (a related collaborative project involving Lancaster University and partners) is being used by the team to improve understanding of how phosphorus moves in the agricultural landscape.
"This data contains unprecedented detail and enables us to link the driving forces with the nutrients in the river," said Dr Mary Ockenden, Senior Research Associate at Lancaster University. "We can start to unpick the effect of conditions such as a dry period followed by a large storm."
Lancaster University's Professor Keith Beven, who leads the water quality modelling in the Nutrients in Catchments to 2050 project, said: "At the moment, water quality predictions are very uncertain, often because we do not have enough data to test computer simulations rigorously. However, this project enables us to test several different models with the new high-frequency data and to learn from their shortcomings."
Scientists from the project have also met with farmers and landowners to discuss how changes in climate have affected land use and farming in the Eden Valley in Cumbria.
The new project will harness this experience and use information from similar meetings around the UK to develop land use scenarios for the future. These will then be combined with climate data to make predictions about water quality in the future.
The Eden Demonstration Test Catchment team involves researchers from Lancaster University, Newcastle University, Durham University, Eden Rivers Trust and other project partners.
The NUTCAT-2050 team at Lancaster University includes Professor Phil Haygarth, Professor Keith Beven, Dr Mary Ockenden, Dr Michael Hollaway, Dr Catherine Wearing and Kirsty Ross.

Less than 24 hours after a Nicki Minaj pregnancy rumor hit the Internet, a representative from the Barbie's camp has stepped forward to kill the speculation.
According to a Minaj rep, the Young Money star has not followed the footsteps of new moms like Alicia Keys or Keyshia Cole.
MediaTakeOut published a rumor that the performer told executives at Young Money that she was expecting a baby. But a rep for Minaj tells Gossip Cop she's "NOT pregnant." Chalk up yet another totally wrong rumor for "MediaFakeOut." (Gossip Cop)
The pregnancy rumor circulated buzzed online yesterday.
On Monday, popular urban gossip blog MediaTakeout reported the rap diva is expecting a child with hype man SB, Safaree. The top story claimed that a "ROCK SOLID insider at Young Money" told them the Harajuku Barbie was pregnant by her hype man and longtime friend. The insider continued to say that the "Right Thru Me" singer and Safaree were dumb for making this decision so early in her career, and that the Grammy nominated rapper called a meeting to inform the YM heads of her current condition. (Examiner)
In late February, the Young Money star talked about not pursuing love at this point in her career.
"I have no romance in my life at all, and it's not important to me right now. I have love for people who are on my team that I see every day and for my family, that's what makes me do what I do. I also have love for people that I interact with. If I have too much of the romantic love, I feel like it will distract me. Right now I feel like a robot." (BET)
Last January, Minaj publicly revealed being a single lady on the market.

KQED Senior Managment
William L. Lowery
General Counsel and Corporate Secretary
Bill Lowery joined KQED in February 2008 as deputy general counsel, was appointed interim general counsel and corporate secretary in March 2010 and was promoted to his current position in June 2010. He is responsible for managing KQED's diverse legal affairs, which range from FCC regulatory issues to content licensing and distribution, intellectual property matters, contract negotiation and litigation management. He is also responsible for overseeing activities related to the Board of Directors.
Bill came to KQED from the Washington, DC, communications law firm Miller & Van Eaton, where he was a partner and the managing director of the firm's San Francisco office. He first came to the Bay Area as a law student at U.C. Hastings College of the Law, where he earned his J.D. in 1993. Following law school, he practiced as a litigation associate in the San Francisco firm Steefel, Levitt and Weiss, and later joined some former Steefel colleagues at a small startup firm, where he participated in jury and bench trials.
Bill's arrival at KQED marked a full-circle transition in his professional career, which started as an undergraduate with a production assistant position at PBS member station WOUB-TV on the campus of Ohio University. After earning a Bachelor of Science in communications there, Bill launched a television-production career that included producer-director and production manager positions at commercial stations across the country. He also holds a Master of Arts in radio and television from San Francisco State University, where he has developed and taught graduate courses in media ethics in the broadcasting and electronic communication arts department.

Cutimed® Sorbact® - the newest innovative approach in antimicrobial wound care therapy from BSN Medical, uses a unique antimicrobial concept that works without a chemically active agent
Cutimed® Sorbact® by BSN Medical is one of the newest and most innovative approaches to antimicrobial wound care therapy. Using a unique antimicrobial concept that works without a chemically active agent, Cutimed® Sorbact's® effectiveness is based on the powerful physical principle of hydrophobic interaction to cleanse colonized, contaminated and infected wounds.
The Cutimed® Sorbact® dressing is applied onto the wound as a primary dressing so that it has direct contact with the wound bacteria. The dressing's special coating creates a strong water-repellent property which helps to inactivate and physically bind wound bacteria to the dressing itself. With each dressing change the bound bacteria are removed and expelled from the wound, eliminating one of the principle barriers to wound healing. Indications for use include:
- Chronic wounds such as venous leg, arterial, diabetic and pressure ulcers
- Acute wounds such as postoperative and dehisced wounds, traumatic wounds and post-excision of fistulas or abscess wounds
Cutimed® Sorbact® is effective against all wound pathogens including MRSA and VRE, and may be combined with secondary dressings as transparent film or ABD pads for additional exudate absorption. Included as a component in the Comprifore multi-layer compression bandaging system, Cutimed® Sorbact® helps to create the optimal healing conditions for venous leg ulcers.

Something has been missing in the community for the past few years, and members of the Minden Ministerial Fellowship believe they know how to fill that gap.
A community service of Thanksgiving is in the works, scheduled for 3 p.m., November 23 at Greater St. Paul Baptist Church, 510 High St. in Minden.
"There are 10 pastors in the community that are involved from all denominations," Pastor Royal Scott said.
"We will have a cross section of music led by various musicians from other churches. We're really excited about this."
Scott said the idea to bring back the community service was spurred by another community service on Good Friday, which is the first one held in the three years since he moved to Minden.
"It was a wonderful service that was held at First United Methodist Church," Scott said. "There were probably 300 people there, and we're expecting a good turnout for this one because the churches that participated really want to see this continue."
Scott said the objective of the service is to bring the community together.
"We as pastors feel as if some of the walls of racism and division that are in our community are going to be broken down, it's going to have to start in the faith-based community, and it needs to start with the pastors," he said.
The pastors' fellowship has been meeting monthly at some of the churches and local restaurants.
"We have fellowship ourselves to help bring this about," Scott said. "We don't have the participation of all pastors, but we have a majority of the pastors involved. We encourage all pastors to be a part."

Fab Flash: Heidi Montag to Launch Heidiwood
As I told you back in November, Heidi Montag is going to Heidiwood. Although Lauren Conrad was always The Hills girl with fashion-designer aspirations, Heidi decided to bring her short stint at LA's Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising to fruition.
She's collaborating with retail chain Anchor Blue on a line of junior apparel and accessories set to debut by April 15. Striped dresses, color-rich tanks, tees, black shorts, white-denim tops, bags, and jewelry are all in the works, priced from $10 to $60.
The partnership will continue for two more collections, and the Fall Heidiwood line is anticipated to involve sweaters and jackets in darker, autumnal colors. Heidi will also be featured in the Anchor Blue ad campaign beginning April 1. Joy. I wonder how it will compare with Lauren's collection?

Comparative Veterinary Histology

Strictly Come Dancing is about to hit our screens for the ninth series this weekend, and Anton Du Beke has said he had forgotten just how "terrible" the celebrity contestants were at the beginning stage.
Anton said: "Always when I do this I forget how terrible the celebrities really are because all I remember is how they finished in the series and I forget the pain at the beginning but they pick it up."
Professional dancer Anton will be partnering celebrity Nancy Dell'Olio this season.
All the professionals and their celeb partners are currently rehearsing for the opening nights on Friday and Saturday.
Nancy has admitted feeling the "pressure" ahead of the opening weekend, but Anton is appearing confident as he is planning a "big finish" to impress judges Alesha Dixon, Len Goodman, Criag Revel–Horwood and Bruno Tonioli.
He said: "It's all right, it's good, you know. I've got some choreography that I've put down and it's about two-thirds of the dance and I've got an idea for a big finish but that remains to be seen how that goes."
Anton and Nancy will be dancing for the first time on Saturday, the second night of the opening weekend.

Make, Market, Launch It Book Hits #1 on Amazon.com
Pam Hendrickson and Mike Koenigs are honored to have their first co-authored book - Make, Market, Launch It: The Ultimate Production Creation System for Turning Your Ideas into Income - hit #1 on Amazon in not just one, but two separate Kindle Business & Investing categories: "New Business Enterprises" and "Product Management."
The book also reached #1 overall in both book and Kindle sales in the "New Business Enterprises" category as well as #1 in Kindle's overall "Business Marketing & Sales" category.
"We're thrilled that so many people are interested in turning their ideas into products they can use to create new sources of income," Hendrickson said.
Make, Market, Launch It is aimed at potential and current entrepreneurs who have a particular expertise they want to turn into a new source of income. Its seven-step system walks readers through the process of turning those ideas into a suite of products they can sell-books, live events, online courses, coaching programs and more.
Because the book presumes no prior experience, its strategies work equally well for both brand-new entrepreneurs and existing business owners. It can also help people with existing products maximize their marketing and sales efforts.
Make, Market, Launch It leverages Hendrickson and Koenigs' 40+ years of combined success in creating and marketing products and services. Hendrickson spent eighteen years at Robbins Research International, where she worked directly with peak performance coach and business strategist Tony Robbins as the Vice President of Content & Product Development. Koenigs has created several successful six- and seven-figure ventures, including Traffic Geyser, which distributes more than 1 million videos a month.
As entrepreneurs themselves, Hendrickson and Koenigs believe strongly in sharing the limitless potential of entrepreneurship with others.
"With the right strategies, anyone can turn his or her knowledge into products that will change lives and improve businesses," Koenigs says. "If you think you have an idea that can be turned into a product, you've found the right book, the right resources and the right people to help you on your journey."

Home & Garden: Colorful Living
Date: May 15, 2013
by: Rachel S. O'Hara | Staff Photographer
Grant's Gardens recently finished installing a brand-new landscape for a home on Island Circle, on Siesta Key. Grant's Gardens worked with the owners of the home for three months and then installed the new landscape in one week.
The owners wanted a lot of color, so Grant's Gardens made sure to install a wide variety of Florida friendly, native plants as well as a few exotics that would add pops of color throughout the property.
The owners made some changes to their patio, including redoing the pool and adding a custom-made fire pit.
There are mango, lime, loquat, lemon, raspberry and blueberry trees and bushes on the property in large, decorative pots from Vietnam.

Katy Perry, 'Unconditionally' – Song Review
Katy Perry's second 'Prism' single, called 'Unconditionally,' isn't a 'ROAR' redux.
Katy Perry's second 'Prism' single, called 'Unconditionally,' isn't a 'ROAR' redux.
Katy Perry roared -- twice!!-- on 'Saturday Night Live' this weekend. The singer, who has also hosted the show before, was only the musical guest last night (Oct. 12), but she once again left a lasting impression, turning the stage into a jungle as she performed her latest hit song 'ROAR.' She also rocked the new song 'Walking on Air,' transforming the set into a club dance floor for about five minutes.
Katy Perry chatted about everything from comedians to competition to cartoons on 'Late Night With Jimmy Fallon,' leading up to her musical performance on 'Saturday Night Live.'
Selena Gomez covered 'Roar' by Katy Perry in concert ... but it sounded more like a whimper. Sel, what happened?!
Imagine Katy Perry performing a private concert for you. Sounds like a dream come true, right? For students at Cooper High School in Abilene, Texas, it just might come true!
Bruce Willis has made plenty of headlines in recent months with his apparent disinterest in the spotlight, but will he be up to the task of hosting 'SNL' for the first time since 1989? The 'Die Hard' star will step up to the stage for this Saturday's follow-up to last week's Miley Cyrus outing, and the first previews at least bring us "The Return of Bruno." Ah, '80s humor.
Once again, Katy Perry impressed us with her fashion sense while abroad, this time in Paris. The singer donned a bit of a prim and proper, black and metallic pink, pencil-shaped dress to the 'Mademoiselle C' premiere party in the City of Lights earlier this week (Oct. 1). She's establishing herself as one fierce fashionista who doesn't need to rely on outrageous costumes to turn heads.
Katy Perry has been over in Europe this week, closing out the iTunes Wireless Festival and hitting up fashion shows.
We think Katy Perry needs to clear her dance card when she sees this adorable video in which openly gay Army Ranger Ken Yasger invites her to his upcoming Army Ranger Ball.
