In sports, as in life, we get so used to certain presences that we're unsure what to do once that presence fades. Tonight will be the first game Russell Westbrook has missed not just in his professional career, but in his entire sports career, high school included. That a player so devilish and reckless, so bruising and physical would be so immune to injury is somewhat unfathomable. Just as unbelievable will be tonight, when the Thunder takes the floor without Westbrook.
Two years ago, my parents, sister, and both grandmothers came in town for my college graduation. At dinner the night before the actual ceremony, my mom looked at me and asked where I was going to get my haircut from now on.
"What?" I asked, bemused. My mom had always had a propensity for asking questions that seemingly had little to do with the current conversation, and I figured this to be another instance. The beat of puzzled silence that follows these questions came, but the laughter that usually comes after, from both my mom and the rest of my family, didn't.
"What?" I asked, this time concerned. I turned to my dad, but in the time it took for me to make eye contact with him, my brain had pieced it together. So, when I came face to face with my dad, instead of asking "what?" again, I simply, quietly, said, "no."
"Jerry passed away," my dad said, confirming my fear. Jerry, my barber for the better part of my entire life, had suffered a massive heart attack following a tennis game with his friend and business partner a few weeks prior. My dad waited to tell me because he didn't want the news to interfere with school.
The loss of a barber may seem inconsequential to some, but it was profound to me. He wasn't just a barber; he was my friend. We'd talk about the Chiefs, the Royals, the Jayhawks, fishing, movies, school and all of the common topics of conversation between men. Jerry had been there through all the phases, and corresponding hairstyles, of my life, from the short, simple "Princeton" haircut, to my unkempt, knotty, unmanageable Jewfro that required the use of a machete just to trim, and back to a shorter cut, less Slideshow Bob and more a shorter Harpo Marx.
I'd go off to summer camp, come back, then visit Jerry in the next few days. I'd go off to college, first at UConn then Tulsa, and almost every time I returned home, I'd call Jerry and ask if he had anything open. Usually, he did. He was always there, the very definition of a constant. And now he was gone.
Westbrook, for so young a player, has been a pivotal figure in the brief history of the Oklahoma City Thunder. He was drafted by the Seattle Supersonics in 2008, a franchise cornerstone for a franchise that was soon to end. He was there for the Thunder's inaugural season, a miserable, and turnover-prone one to be sure, but formative and integral to the development of the team and specifically the chemistry between Westbrook and Durant. He was there for the Thunder's first playoff appearance, for the Jeff Green/Kendrick Perkins trade, the emergence of James Harden and Serge Ibaka, and started (and starred) in the NBA Finals just four years after being drafted. And through it all, he has been maligned, celebrated, jeered, scapegoated, praised, and an overall polarizing figure.
More than any other player on the Thunder, Westbrook has been the team's constant. Nick Collison, though fully embraced by the Oklahoma City fans, will never wholly belong to them, as his history is just as much with the specters in Seattle. Jeff Green and James Harden were traded (to decidedly different fanfares, of course). Even Kevin Durant, the face of the franchise and the second best player in the NBA, has missed a few games because of injury. But not Russell Westbrook. He's always been there, night in and night out, bad game or good game. He may cost them the game with a silly mistake, or he may win it with a daring feat of athleticism and skill, but either way, his presence has always been undeniable.
Good or bad, he was always there. It never crossed the minds of Thunder fans, and basketball fans at large, that he would ever not be. He's fallen down hundreds of times, grimaced, limped, doubled over in pain, but he's always come back, no matter what. His presence, nearly as much as his production, is what made him Russell Westbrook.
A few days after moving back to Kansas City, I made an appointment at Bock's, where Jerry used to work. Pulling up to the shop, nerves, like so many corn kernels in a microwave, jumped and bounced and wrecked their way throughout my stomach. I pulled open the front door to see Bernie and Maurice, two other barbers, one of whom, Maurice, was Jerry's brother.
Maurice tended to the first chair, while Bernie was stationed at the third. In the middle, unoccupied, untouched, was the second chair. Jerry's chair. My appointment was with Bernie, whom I'd known just as long as Jerry. Inevitably, we talked about Jerry, and through the entire haircut my eyes rarely strayed from Jerry's vacant chair, magnetic in its emptiness.
It was all so wrong, and I kept expecting Jerry to come out of the back room, or walk through the front door, or just be there. And every time I go back, I still wait for him to appear, and every time reality disappoints me.
When the news broke that Westbrook was out, first indefinitely, then later for the rest of the season, we were introduced to a reality we never thought could possibly exist: a world without Westbrook. It's as uncharted a territory for the Thunder as it is for fans, navigated easily by neither. But navigate it they, and we, must. That means more Reggie Jackson and (unfortunately) more Derek Fisher, the former unproven, the latter far past his prime, and neither enough to compensate.
It doesn't, and won't, seem right for the Thunder to play without Russell Westbrook. We'll look to the court, wondering where the dynamic guard is before catching ourselves and remembering that the Thunder's greatest constant is now, in more than one way, their greatest absence.

Thank you for your reply Glen.
One never knows our combined knowledge & that of others on William Finlay may some day come together as a complete piece of the jigsaw.
Sometimes also the process of elimination can help. Research in Northern ireland is far from easy.
I will add your reply to my research notes on the Finlay's for future reference.
Good luck in your own research.
Cheers, Dianne.

Written by Dagmar Fors Karppi, firstname.lastname@example.com Friday, 01 March 2013 00:00
Valentine's Day was chosen as the perfect time to celebrate the 36th anniversary of the Life Enrichment Center of Oyster Bay. In the absence of an executive director, since October when Gail Speranza left, Mary Frignani, program coordinator and Nancy Farinaccio program assistant, and all the staff members, have been sharing those responsibilities.
LEC member Belle Santora said, "They have been doing a wonderful job of running the center."
Nancy Farinaccio said the day started with a concert by the Oyster Bay High School students. They also brought a great many raffle items they gathered from the community as a fundraiser for the center.
Farinaccio said the staff decided to focus on Valentine's Day for the event. "The senior center [then known as the Doubleday Babcock Center in acknowledgement of the fund that supported the project] opened on Feb. 10, 1977. It was an outreach of Christ Church and was to be a one-day a week program but kept on evolving until now it is a five-day a week program that runs from Monday to Wednesday from 8:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. and on Thursday and Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m."
LECOB board president John Sant'Angelo recently said, "The biggest misconception the public has is that the center is somehow government funded by the Town of Oyster Bay, or is paid for by our taxes and so say, 'Why should I be paying for it?'
"That is not at all the truth. The LECOB is a private institution in the hamlet. Just a portion, about one third of the funding, comes from Nassau County. The other portion is raised through fundraising in the community, from individuals and other sources." [The town has cut back on its funding of the center and now provides $13,000 a year.]
For instance, he said, "There is a new bus for the DayBreak program. It was privately funded. Robert Garland donated the money after he passed away, to get/buy the bus."
Understanding that need for funds, made it especially endearing that the OBHS students went throughout the community gathering raffle donations. The items seemed to come from every local restaurant and beauty salon. The names included: La Pizzetta, CVS, La Posh, Rite Aid, Serata (which gave two $50 gift certificates); Angelina's, Joyce Nails, Elegant Hair Salon, Aurora hair salon, La Bonne Boulangerie, Saggio's, Dunkin' Donuts and 4-U Nails, when this reporter stopped writing. The list was still being announced as they called out more raffle numbers.
Linda Libertini won the 4-U Nails gift certificate and was delighted since she goes there. Libertini ran the Mar-Lyn beauty salon in Oyster Bay, with her sister Domenica.
Sunday, 23 November 2014 00:00Driving rain and an early start time did not deter 600 people who arrived at Crest Hollow Country Club recently to celebrate the Women's Fund of Long Island's 20th year and to honor four exceptional women.
The breakfast started with a meet and greet and a chance to showcase Women's Fund contest winner Patti Hogarty, designer of "Women as Bamboo." Inspired by her neighbor's bamboo, she entered the contest drawing a design of the bamboo, which Ambalu Jewelers of Roslyn then turned into various pendants of which 40-percent of the profits would go to WFLI. Hogarty wrote a short essay comparing women to bamboo in that they are strong and can weather difficult storms, yet remain graceful and continue to grow sending out new shoots.

Oyster Bay High School Principal Dr. Dennis O'Hara addressed the board of education at Tuesday night's meeting about offering a summer school program at the high school. It would be the first time the district had a summer school program in more than 12 years.
Dr. O'Hara explained that with the institution of the Common Core state standards, students are faced with a greater level of academic rigor and more challenging coursework. The program would offer remedial and enrichment classes for students both in and out of district.

In the history of Oyster Bay High School athletics, no one has ever won a Girls' Tennis New York State Championship. Celeste Matute and Courtney Kowalsky became the first when they won the 2014 New York State Doubles Championship in Latham on Nov. 3. What makes this tremendous achievement even more remarkable is that Matute is a junior and Kowalsky is a sophomore.
The girls, who are usually singles players, teamed up to take on the very best players in Nassau County and New York State. They won all 10 matches in the section XIII and NYSPHSAA tournaments and left Latham as the 2014 New York State doubles champions.

'Skywalker' author gets ready for film fest close-up
Date: March 17, 2010
by: Heidi Kurpiela | A&E Editor
In short, here's what you need to know about Bill Walker: He's 6-feet 11-inches-tall — not 7 feet tall. He spent 14 years as a commodities trader in Chicago and London and later taught English in Peru, Mexico, Argentina, and Paraguay.
A native of Macon, Ga., Walker has always been a kind of nomad, a self-described "serial Visa violator," who, until hiking the length of the Appalachian Trail in 2005 — a total distance of 2,175 miles — had never actually camped outside a night in his life.
He's always enjoyed walking for reasons beyond pure aerobics. In Chicago, he walked four miles up the bus line every day to his office. In London, he pounded the pavement on the West End, and in Latin America he continued the habit.
His last name is purely ironic.
"Walking long distances brings out the best in people," says Walker, 49.
Ten years ago, he read travel writer Bill Bryson's book, "A Walk in the Woods," in which an overweight and characteristically self-deprecating Bryson attempts to traverse the Appalachian Trail. Walker obsessively thought about embarking on the same journey and, at one point, ran the idea past his father, who incredulously suggested his son seek shelter under a bear in the event of a thunderstorm.
Shortly after his father died, Walker bought a backpack, sleeping bag, a stocking cap, fleece vest and two sets of long johns, rain jackets and rain pants. Falling under the influence of legendary hiker Warren Doyle, a weathered mountain man who's hiked the Appalachian Trial 13 times, Walker ditched the extra weight of a tent and slept under a tarp instead.
He chose his trail name in advance: Skywalker, not because he's a fan of "Star Wars," but because of his last name — at 6-foot-11, how could he not?
In the spring of 2005, he set out on foot from the Chattahoochee Valley National Forest, in Georgia. On Sept. 26, 2005, he reached the northern terminus of the trail — Mount Katahdin, the highest mountain in Maine. It took him 171 days, and he dropped 33 pounds.
In Sarasota, he penned the memoir, "Skywalker," while working for Young Biz, a financial literacy- and youth-entrepreneurship program. In 2009, he hiked the Pacific Crest Trail, which is 489 miles longer than the Appalachian Trail and runs from California to Canada.
To train for the flatter desert trek, he trudged up and down Siesta Key Beach wearing his hiker's pack and ankle weights, a peculiar sight that inevitably grabbed the attention of filmmaker and Sarasota Fringe Film Festival founder Patrick Nagle, who asked Walker if he'd be interested in shooting a short documentary about his newfound trail fever.
"It's about why I do it," Walker says of the film. "My fondest hope is that I inspire non-hikers; people who say, 'If that idiot Skywalker can do it with all the mistakes he made, I can do it, too.'"

The 2010 Sarasota Fringe Film Festival runs April 7 to April 11, at Main Street Plaza, next to Regal Hollywood 20. For a complete list of screenings, visit www.sarasotafringefilmfestival.com.

When Cliff Hodges, the founder and CEO of Adventure Out, graduated from MIT with a degree in electrical engineering, he knew a traditional desk job wasn't for him. According to Technology Review, he quickly gave up his engineering career for the wireless world of the great outdoors, where he began to hike, climb, and surf his way around the world, always staying true to his philosophy of environmental respect and protection.
His travels and business accomplishments have gained some measure of notoriety; he's coached on MTV's Made, consulted for ABC News, and was selected as one of four winners of the 2011 Santa Cruz County Civic Service Award: The Nextie. Adventure Out was also identified for meeting survival skills training standards by The New York Times best-selling author Tim Ferriss in The 4-Hour Chef.
Today, he and his program consultant Tom McElroy lead excursions into the California wilderness to teach backpacking and survival skills, including the tracking of animals and wild ice-cream trucks, and they also guide novices through surfing, rock-climbing, and mountain-biking sojourns. Through fundraising, Adventure Out has helped save Castle Rock State Park from closure and a portion of their proceeds is put directly back into the park.
Surrounded by craggy peaks, three men in bright-red helmets stand in the midst of wilderness, surveying the mountains around them as their group of hikers break for a snack on the rocky ground. This interface with the majesty of nature is all in a day's work for this trio of adventurers—Paul Mangasarian and Jakob and Daniel Laggner. Still, their passion for open-air exploration grows with each expedition they lead. Paul, Jakob, and Daniel cofounded Treks and Tracks with the dream of orchestrating excursions into nature that combine ancient means of travel—such as sailing, horseback riding, and hitchhiking on a centaur—with modern sports ranging from surfing to rock climbing. Though they focus on introducing novice outdoorsfolk to unspoiled wilderness around the world, Treks and Tracks' cofounders also strive to leave the awe-inspiring surroundings they visit as pristine as they found them by rigorously upholding practices of environmental stewardship on each expedition.
When the climbers of Planet Granite say that community anchors everything they do, they have a history of outreach to back it up. After Castle Rock State Park appeared on California's closure list, Planet Granite's team quickly organized a fundraiser to save the sanctuary. They pledged $10,000 in matching funds, threw an auction, scheduled guest speakers, and obtained support from companies such as REI. In one night, they raised $20,725.
This kind of response has typified Planet Granite's team since opening its first facility in 1994. One of the first climbing gyms in the country, Planet Granite has expanded to three gyms in Belmont, San Francisco, and Sunnyvale. The diverse array of climbing resources at each location led Popsugar to name the gym conglomerate one of the top five in San Francisco in 2011. At the Sunnyvale location, members scale 25,000 square feet of climbable surfaces that ascend from low bouldering terrains to 60-foot walls.
In keeping with their commitment to community, the staff tailors instruction and climbing routes to every ability level and affinity for hand sweatiness. They also supervise each gyms' fully equipped fitness centers, ranging from CrossFit to yoga, which provides a peaceful counterbalance to the full-body workout of rock climbing.
After her first visit to Mission Cliffs, Donna Dunlap tore the fake fingernails off her hands. It wasn't out of frustration, however, but from sheer excitement. Excitement to return to the climbing emporium and once again experience the rush of scurrying up 14,000 square feet of climbing walls, boulders, arches, and slabs. It's not clear whether Donna ever replaced those nail tips, but it's unlikely; she's now the manager of the entire facility, and oversees a staff of equally enthusiastic guides that make the daunting heights attainable for visitors of all ages and abilities. Mission Cliffs' centerpiece is its towering five-story-high lead wall, a veritable maze of routes, slants, and crags. The gym's arches have coaxed forehead sweat from even the most accomplished climbers, while its moderate terrain along the cylinder and mezzanine walls takes it easy on first-timers. Upstairs, a family of hulking boulders awaits the feet and hands of climbers turning in their ropes for some freestyle bouldering. The gym also outfits guests with gear rentals and introductory lessons, and raises heart rates with a range of fitness classes.
Every summer, the Trans-Sierra Club takes four groups on a 75-mile trek, across their namesake mountain range to the highest altitude peak in the contiguous United States: Mount Whitney. The mountain measures 14,500 feet high, and while it has been summited by more than one fifth grader, don't be fooled. The route to the top is far from child's play. Participants must hike 8-12 miles a day and carry their own food and camping gear. However, the spectacular views?and the sense of accomplishment?that await at the summit are worth the sweaty journey.
Web 2.0 shines light into cyberspace with a multitrack educational convention of ideas, concepts, and configurations. A host of workshops and conversational-learning sessions unveil new innovations and design strategies, and networking events allow convention-goers to rub elbows and positively charged balloons with industry superstars. The Web 2.0 Lite pass grants access to the event Tuesday–Thursday. The Lite pass presents a slim spread of activities such as a choice of one track session, a choice of one conversation, personal audio for all keynote speakers, access to evening events, and access to the Expo Hall on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Loyola University student wins grant for anti-obesity efforts
Updated On: Jan 08 2013 09:57:10 AM CST
A Loyola University student has won a grant to help teach health care providers at a New Orleans area school counseling skills aimed at reducing childhood obesity.
The $4,000 grant from the American Nurse Practitioner Foundation is going to Monica Alleman, a student in Loyola's Doctor of Nursing Practice program.
Alleman is teaching health care professionals at John Ehret High School in Marrero, a technique called motivational interviewing. It involves speaking to patients in ways that illicit the patients' own solutions - instead of trying to command behavior.
In a Loyola news release, Alleman says research shows that "the more patients talk about their own change, the more likely they are going to start to try to change."

You actually need to acquire a great, detailed, but simple to comply with user's manual or overview so you recognize just what you are doing and why. You understand the old stating, "You acquire just what you pay for," well, it applies for expertise, too. If you get a 4-page, $2 'manual' you can pretty much anticipate to get right into trouble, unless, certainly, you have currently constructed some wind power generators before as well as just require a 'refresher'. There are additionally many online sources and also online forums to help lead you with your project.
Wind energy is the fastest expanding source of power of any kind of renewable resource sources and modern technologies, as well as you can accept all its benefits with your very own generators:
– wind power is tidy
– wind power is free of cost
– wind power is renewable
It will take a little of work to build your wind power generators, yet there is absolutely nothing especially complexed concerning it. You will certainly need a good-sized work area, however, due to the fact that your propellers or blades can stand up to 8 feet in size (4 ft. blades), depending on your target power output.
The surging passion in power from the wind as a feasible choice to nonrenewable fuel source power has suggested that structure wind generators has actually come to be a rapid increasing profession around the globe due to the fact that technicians are difficult to discover. That understands, once you learn how you can develop wind generators on your own you might want to make a career of it.

Marchand scores 2 in Bruins' 6-2 win over CarolinaThe Associated Press | April 09,2013
Boston Bruins' Dennis Seidenberg (44) and Jaromir Jagr (68) celebrate with teammates after Bruins' Brad Marchand scored his second goal as Carolina Hurricanes' Jordan Staal (11) skates away in the first period of an NHL hockey game in Boston, Monday, April, 8, 2013. (AP Photo/Michael Dwyer)BOSTON Brad Marchand scored two goals and Tuukka Rask stopped 40 shots, leading the Boston Bruins to a 6-2 victory over the struggling Carolina Hurricanes on Monday night.
Rich Peverley, Andrew Ference, Jordan Caron and Nathan Horton each added a goal, and defenseman Dennis Seidenberg established a career-high with three assists for Boston, which moved a point behind Montreal in the Northeast Division.
The Bruins won for the fourth time in five games by scoring a season-high in goals after dropping a 2-1 decision at the rival Canadiens on Saturday.
Patrick Dwyer and Drayson Bowman scored for the Hurricanes, who lost for the 12th time in 13 games, 11 of them coming in regulation.
Carolina has allowed four or more goals in 10 of its last 14.
After a poor start, the Bruins jumped ahead 1-0 when Peverley fired a shot from the right wing, collected his own rebound at the edge of the crease, circled the net and tucked a shot past goaltender Justin Peters inside the left post.
Just over 5 minutes later, Bostons new second line of Marchand-Gregory Campbell-Jaromir Jagr made it 2-0. Marchand banged in the rebound of Campbells shot from the edge of the crease. The Hurricanes replaced Peters with Dan Ellis after the second goal. Peters faced only four shots in 7 minutes, 58 seconds.
The Bruins made it 3-0 when Jagr tried a wraparound shot. Ellis made the save, but the puck caromed out to Marchand, who backhanded a shot in from the bottom of the left circle for his team-leading 16th goal.
Boston increased it to 4-0 on Ferences score early in the second. Seidenberg fired a shot from the left point, the puck popped in the air and into the net off Ferences left glove. After a reply review, the call on the ice was upheld.
Carons score made it 5-0 midway into the second, but the Hurricanes ended Rasks shutout bid when Dwyer scored on a rebound midway into the third.
Bowmans goal cut it to 5-2 before Horton redirected Dougie Hamiltons pass for his 13th of the season.
The Hurricanes came out and dominated play in the early minutes, outshooting Boston 7-0. Rask stopped a handful of close shots, including a left pad stop of Zac Dalpe, who was alone at the edge of the crease.
NOTES: Boston coach Claude Julien dropped Tyler Seguin from the second line to the third, moving Campbell up to center the second. ... Boston improved to 8-0-1 in its last nine home games. ... Bruins C Patrice Bergeron missed his second straight with what the team called a moderate concussion.
... The Hurricanes entered equally as bad with the power play or short-handed, ranking 28th overall. ... Boston C Chris Kelly returned after missing 14 games with a broken bone in his left leg. ... It was the first of four of six on the road for Carolina. ... Boston allowed 40 or more shots for the third time in four games.MORE IN Wire SportsPASADENA, Calif.
