Things We Learned Against The Bulls
Posted on December 16, 2010 | 13 Comments
Coming into Toronto, the Chicago Bulls had won 6 in a row, including the last 2 games by an average of 25 points, they have the third best record in the East, and have one of the best defenses in the league, anchored by one of the league's premier defensive big man. They are also the best rebounding team in the league. Oh, and they not only have on of the best PGs in the league, in Derrick Rose, but one of the best players.
The Raptors, on the other hand, are 3-7 in their last ten, having given up 110.2 ppg in those ten games, stopping only Oklahoma from beating their season ppg average, and have been outrebounded by their opponents since Reggie Evans was injured. And while they are in the top ten in scoring, they are actually a pretty mediocre offensive team that doesn't have much of an ability to create for themselves, are below average passing the ball, and are near the bottom in three point shooting. Oh, and they're currently missing their two best offensive players, in Calderon and Bargnani.
So on the surface, things looked pretty bad for the Raptors. And I haven't mentioned that they were trotting out the youngest starting lineup in Raptor history, at an average age of 22 years, with Weems, at 24, being the senior of the group. Conversely, Derrick Rose, at 22 years, is the only Bull starter UNDER the age of Weems' 24 years, Boozer is 29 and Keith Bogans in 30. Of the Raptors starters, only Amir Johnson has played more seasons than the least experienced Bulls starter, Rose. And Rose has played nearly twice as many minutes as Amir has.
Am I starting to paint you a clear enough picture?
So this game pretty much turned out as expected. Fortunately, even in bad losses, there are things that can be learned. And they are…
1. Jerryd Bayless is NOT a PG (and neither is Leandro Barbosa, for that matter). Looking at the stats, you might think that Bayless had a good game. He scored 20 points, on 9-15 shooting, had only 1 turnover, and held Derrick Rose 18 points BELOW his seasonal average of 24.7 ppg. This would be great if he also did what a PG is supposed to do.
Unfortunately, without the much maligned Jose Calderon available, Bayless was expected to run the offense. And he can't do that. Chicago plays great defense, but it certainly didn't help that Bayless doesn't have a clue of how to run and offense and deliver the ball where it's supposed to go. If this game doesn't underline why I have always said that Calderon should be starting, I don't know what will.
The big problem with trying to convert a SG into a PG is that running and offense and making your teammates better is mostly instinctual. It takes YEARS of playing that position to understand what needs to be done. It's why I was so against drafting Avery Bradley at 13 in the last draft. He's a talented players, but I doubt he'll ever be a PG.
This game showed that, at this point, anyway, Bayless is a good player, but should never start.
2. Chicago is a very, very good team. This is the first game I've watched of them play since Boozer returned from injury and it reinforced why he is so important to this team. Taj Gibson is a good, young big man, but he's not the low post threat that Boozer is, and is not the veteran Boozer is. Boozer's in his 9th season, has played in 4 playoff series, including a trip to the Conference Finals, and has even played in 2 All Star games. He's not a great defender, but he at least knows what to do on that end of the court, even if he's not the most willing.
The two main reasons the Bulls are so good: Derrick Rose and their defense. Despite only scoring 6 points, Rose killed the Raptors with his playmaking. And the Bulls play such good defense, even if Bargnani and Calderon had played, the Raptors would still have had trouble scoring.
Chicago has an easy schedule ahead, which is a good thing because it appears Joakim Noah will be getting surgery on his injured hand and be out for a while. Hopefully, for Chicago, it's not too long.
3. Ed Davis and Amir Johnson form a formidable defensive front line, but neither one of them should ever be asked to be the primary scorer. Without Bargnani, I was hoping to see what I feel is a more balanced front line, but early foul trouble from Amir killed that chance, and he only ended up playing 20 minutes. Joey Dorsey had a career night, in his place, but the problem with Dorsey is that, while he's an excellent rebounder, good shot blocker and pretty good low post scorer, he's not really much of a defender. He's not Bargnani-bad, but there's certainly a reason he doesn't play a lot of minutes. And this is a problem I've noticed long before the game against Chicago.
Now, both Davis and Amir can be very effective and efficient scorers, but score mostly off offensive rebounds and passes from teammates. Unfortunately against the best rebounding team in the NBA, there's not going to be a lot of second chance points, and without a true PG, there aren't going to be many good passes inside.
On the plus side, Davis got his first ever double double, but did learn that he has to get a lot stronger to be able to defend guys like Boozer in the post.

long term calderon is not the answer, i hope you realize that. His defence is a liability that would require all the other players to be lock-down defenders. We should concentrate on drafting a true pg this summer but i'm willing to give bayless a chance to improve, instead of bringing calderon back and ruining are lottery chances.
I don't know about you, but even though the offense was lacking i liked what i saw defensively from the starting 5. Are problem isn't just bayless, we would have come out of there in better shape with a little more talent at the 2 and 3.

I've never said Calderon is the long term answer, and actually said the opposite on many occasions. He is, however, the best person for the job right now. And his defense is much improved this year, although he's still not a good defender. I don't think you'd necessarily need lockdown defenders at every other position, but you'd have to be a good defensive team. Either way, I agree that they need to upgrade their PG position. As for the draft, I think they need to draft the best player available, regardless of position.
I agree about the defense. It wasn't great, but it was better.
"And his defense is much improved this year, although he's still not a good defender."
His defense was improved for a time, but ever since he's settled back into the starting role, it's gone from bad to worse.
http://www.wearingfilm.com Tim W.
With the extra minutes he's played, he's regressed a little, but he's still not liability he was last season.
tim, dont you think keeping old caldy would hurt our chances of improving through the draft, bargnani too, they would help us win a few more games simply b/c they are gifted offensively (not dominant, and to the extent of the better players in the league mind you)they are the definition of mediocre, and will keep us that way.
http://www.wearingfilm.com Tim W.
Bargnani really isn't going to win many games for the Raptors, despite his offense, because he gives so much away on the other end. Unless he's scoring 26+ points, he's generally a determent. Besides, any trade involving Bargnani should net back some talent, or else why do it?
As for Calderon, I'd rather have him as the main PG for the Raptors than Bayless, right now. Players can't develop if they can't get the ball where they need to to score.
Besides, the Raptors simply lack the talent to win more than 30 games, so it's not as if they need to do something in order to get a high draft pick. They just need to play the players the have.
i would argue that the only player's that need to develop are 1. davis and 2. bayless himself and maybe amir, but i think he's reached his peak. The rest frankly don't have enough talent or aptitude to handle the nba and they shouldn't be part of our future, and that includes demar.
http://www.wearingfilm.com Tim W.
Wow, I think you're giving up WAY too early on a lot of players. Amir is 23 years old, and only last year did he really get consistent minutes. He's improved quite a bit just from last season, so to say he's reached his peaked is rather premature.
DeRozan is 21 and barely two years out of high school. He's averaging 12 ppg on .457 shooting while showing an above average ability to get to the line. He needs to improve his jumper, but a jumper is probably the easiest skill to learn in basketball. He's certainly shown improvement over last year.
Weems is frustratingly inconsistent, but this is basically his 2nd season. And has improved vastly over last season. I don't think he's a future starter, but I don't think Bayless is, either.
Speaking of Bayless, I think a lot of fans are overvaluing him. He's aggressive, a good defender and very confident. But he constantly make poor decisions, shoots way too much and has shown very little ability to run an offense. Not good attributes for a point guard to have. Still, I think he's got a possible good future as a third guard. Then again, Chauncey Billups looked like a bust after 4 years. I doubt that's his future, but you never know.
The point is that it's to early to write anyone off, especially guys that have barely been in the league.
okay fair enough, derozan in my opinion will never be a star, there is just too many little things he consistently never does, but I agree he can become adequate,not all star caliber but it was definitely hasty to suggest trading him. Amir has beeen in the league for five years, has started for the pistons, the man was playing for a contract last year and got it, not for his talent but for his hustle and athleticism, has shown no steps toward improvement other than his jumper might be a tad less ugly, so i would say he has peaked. weems is fundamentally sound (he spent quite a while in college) but stupid (that might be the most flattering term i can use for this kid right now). Him and amir (and derozan possibly, the jury's still out on him) are definitely bench players that can stay, but are they really part of the core? i wouldn't say so. And bayless has been playing well, but i see a little too much of the other jarret(jack) in him, but he could be useful if we pick up a point forward. The point is: chances are you can't get something for nothing, a price needs to be paid in order to find talent, you can't just pull these weems/amir/bayless/derozan(lets face it he was a gamble) deals and expect the product to be as good as the other teams that have paid a price and made big sacrifices for proven talent. (and that includes teams that became good through the draft). I think you could do this once you have established a core of good players but right now getting proven (proven includes college players) talent should be a priority.
http://www.wearingfilm.com Tim W.
Just because a player is never going to be a star doesn't mean you shouldn't develop him, nor does it mean he can't be a valuable player.
Amir never played more than 15 mpg before he got to Toronto. And I'm pretty sure he's not the type of player that plays for a contract. I haven't noticed him play any less hard this year than last. And this year he's improved over last season. I can see him becoming a 15-10 player down the line if he continues his development. Hard to say he's reached his ceiling if he can improve to that.
Weems is young and still raw. You're too impatient with young players. Young players make mistakes. Often over and over again. The young player who plays smart is the exception, not the rule.
@ Pran:
Late reply but I think this needs saying.
"The point is: chances are you can't get something for nothing, a price needs to be paid in order to find talent, you can't just pull these weems/amir/bayless/derozan(lets face it he was a gamble) deals and expect the product to be as good as the other teams that have paid a price and made big sacrifices for proven talent. (and that includes teams that became good through the draft)."
Uh, what teams have made big sacrifices for proven talent? Let's see now. Cleveland lucked into LBJ by being bad in the correct year. Orlando lucked into Howard by being bad in the correct year. San Antonio lucked into Tim Duncan by being bad in the correct year. LA lucked into Kobe Bryant, pure and simple. You make it sound like teams routinely acquire great young talent by trading away good players. This simply isn't true. If someone is already proven in the league, you try to lock them up. Sometimes, they decide to leave, but this doesn't mean the receiving team made any "big sacrifices."
"I think you could do this once you have established a core of good players but right now getting proven (proven includes college players) talent should be a priority."
Did you actually put proven and college player together in the same sentence? By definition, any college or high school player is NOT proven until they prove themselves in the NBA. Otherwise, Adam Morrison is "proven". Even Bayless "proved" himself in college.
One more note @ Pran: your last point ("right now getting proven [...] talent should be a priority") completely conflicts with your first point ("chances are you can't get something for nothing, a price needs to be paid in order to find talent"). Since our players are obviously unproven, how do you propose we get proven players? By trading nothing for something?

I'm not sure if director Rick Rosenthal, to whom we owe the rough Bad Boys starring a young Sean Penn, and screenwriter Jacob Aaron Estes somewhat approached Nearing Grace as an extension of the TV show, but the result is too close, thematically and format-wise, to seriously considerate Nearing Grace as a "real" film.
Looking for some good TV, blown up on a big screen? Sit back, let yourself be carried by the predictable story, fall for the charming tone of the ensemble and enjoy the work of the cast, from Smith to Ashley Johnson and David Morse. Looking for some real cinema? Carry on.

Hilton Borg El Arab Resort Hotel, Alexandria
Reviews - Hilton Borg El Arab Resort Hotel
- Age Group: 31 - 40
- From: France
- Traveller type: Young & Single
When you see big hotel resort name you are at least expecting something more than standard B&B hotel. Yes of course the room service, new towels and the swiming pool are something very pleasant.
But :
- room was not cleaned at all during all my stay.
- bed was only ( how to say it ... ) moved and identical marks apeared evry day once on the left side of the bed and once on the right side. Was it new one or the same ... ? :-)
- Bathroom should be cleaned by my self because after three demands ... nothing happened.
- Tabout toilets, it was better to use those one from the restaurant if you did not wanted see durring all day long what you eat day before ... two rooms from three I was in had this problem.
- if you speak one bad english as I do ... do not worry in any case only very feew people are able to try to understand you :-)

Top Local Tips for Alexandria
Save money - take your own The hotel allows you to take wine with you. We did and it was a god send. You cannot buy alcohol anywhere in the area. Do not under any circumstances, try to make your own way back from Alex without having organised a taxi with a driver who speaks English and take the hotel telephone number with you. We had a scary experience when at 22:00 in Alex not one taxi driver had even heard of Borg el Arab let alone knew how to get there. We had find a hotel, where they spoke English, to get us a taxi, even then he got lost three times and it took us 2 hours to go what should have been 1 hour.
Food at 1/10 of prize You can buy food, pizza, chicken,,,everything from the tourist village attached to the hotel. You will save a fortune.

Man tasered for trying to prevent fire from spreading to his property
Pinellas Park, Florida — Daniel Jensen wasn't running from the law, he was trying to protect his home from burning up. Yet, Pinellas Park Police tasered him in the process. Jensen and his attorney say it's an excessive use of force.
Jensen was still shaken and visibly emotional as he retold what happened last Thursday evening. He said being tasered by police has not only impacted him, but it also impacted his children, who saw it all happen.
He described the Pinellas Park Police officers actions as "brutal." He said they showed "no compassion."
"All I remember is laying in water, being electrocuted for saving my home," said Jensen.
Four days later, burns on Daniel Jensen's body still mark where the stun gun's probes hit him. He says they tasered him for doing what any father and husband would do protect his family's home from an out-of-control grease fire.
The 42-year-old father of two recalls his wife waking him around 6 in the evening, saying there's a big fire at his neighbor's house.
"I could hear it, I could feel it," he explained.
He ran outside and grabbed a fire extinguisher. He sprayed it until it was empty.
"I was calling for my daughter and getting no response. I came out, grabbed the hose and sprayed her room until I heard she was out. I was always taught to help when you can; help is what I tried to do," said Jensen.
He continued to recount the events. He said he then took the garden hose and started watering down his fence and the back corner of his rooftop, trying to prevent the fire from spreading to his property. But with each attempt, Daniel said Pinellas Park Police kept pulling him back… even though firefighters were not in sight.
"They kept telling me, 'Let it go, that's what insurance is for.' That's not acceptable to me," said Jensen.

I guess unionized policemen are not into an old fashioned bucket brigade. That's left to the unionized firemen and evidently Mr. Jensen wasn't union.+9
Goonionized cops. It's what I would expect from goons. Friggin' morons.+5
in this case I am definately on the side of the lawyers+5
The question is why wasn't the fire department providing a line to protect that exposure? Too much like doing their job? (Even a ten year volunteer fireman like me knows you have to protect your exposures from fire extension)+2
So, the crime was not letting the Gov't take care of him?+6
NEVER, EVER, EVER take anything from Miami's "News10″ at face value.
They are the worst of the MSM that we bitch about here all the time.
Blacks are ALWAYS right; police are ALWAYS wrong.
Just because the election is over, don't let your guard down. The MSM will only get worse now.+4
We've had it drummed into our heads since kindergarten that "the police are there to help you."
This can't be true.
Straightjacket the officers, and toss 'em in a saltwater tank.
Duct tape a tazer in the "ON" position, and toss it in with them, until it's completely discharged…
… in a few hours…
Here's what was probably going on. The fire dept. had not arrived, but the police were there for some time. The fire was probably set intentionally for whatever reason. The homeowner of the house on fire knew the poloce chief. The neighbor was allowed to spray his own home and was probably subdued when he tried to push back the fire by spraying the neighbor's home.+1
Okay. I'm torn on this one. Because I'm a cop and people can be stupid.
I don't think they should have tasered him, but, consider this headline:
"Cops stand idly by as man dies trying to put out fire"
They would be crucified in the press if they let that man get too close to the flames and he was hurt or died.
Some people, not all, but some people need to be stopped from doing stupid stuff. They need to be protected from themselves.
And remember, how many times have you guys ever been arrested or been on tv? Who are these dimbulbs who wind up on tv with these stories? There's always more to the story.
If you're neighbor's house was on fire and his family was out and safe, would you stop him from getting too close to a raging fire to save "stuff"?
Or would you let him get too close, possibly pass out from the smoke and then force you to risk your life to save him from a stupid decision?
I really doubt what the police were quoted as saying is not exactly what was said. I know because it's happened to me so many times. More likely they said, "stuff is not worth your life, it can be replaced by insurance, you can't be replaced" or something similar.
Sorry. Just my opinion……+5
"I really doubt what the police were quoted as saying is exactly what was said…"
is what i meant. Got ahead of myself.0
For quite a while now there's always been at least three sides to every story: the victim, the perpetrator and "the news." I'm w/you, muddjuice. If it bleeds it leads. You can always tell a slow news day by the hyperbole and alarmist "news" media. God help us anyone should ever try to actually explain the facts and the truth of Benghazi. What a snore that would be.+3
Most altercations I've seen between citizens and "law enforcement" lately have been more for the gross violation of "contempt of cop" than violation of any law.
Contempt of cop is usually appropriate, too.+1
And how many altercations have you personally witnessed?+2
@ muddjuice
I don't think much of any argument that begins with the setup, "what if…" or "consider this…"
Why not?
Because it doesn't take much of a wordsmith to set up any Freaking scenario imaginable.
I only respect an argument that addresses the facts at hand.+1
Anyone else here wonder if his house was damaged or burned down? What an asinine article that doesn't answer that question.+3
Agreed, mudjuice…I'm a former Deputy Sheriff, and a Taser instructor.
"Jensen was still shaken and visibly emotional"
Bullshit. I've been tased and dry-tased well over 5 or 6 times for training, and I got over it in about 30 seconds each time.
What he's doing is auditioning for his lawsuit where he'll be demanding a rediculously high amount of free money so he won't have to ever work again.
I wasn't there, but if the police tried to pull him back for his own safety, and he resisted them, well then congrats; you just earned yourself an 8 second ride on the electric bull…and it SUCKS.0
Also, the dumbass flat-out lied about being "electrocuted in the water" You can lie in a bathtub full of water, get tazed, and not be electrocuted…FACT.0
The facts were; on his own property, trying to protect it and committing no crimes. The cops were WAY out of line, and I hope Mr. Jensen DOES sue the crap out of them.
They get away with too much of this judge and jury shit.+2
He seems rather talkative for someone who was "electrocuted."0
@ Galt
I agree with the first 4 words of your comment after "@ Muddjuice".
What were we all saying prior to the election? What if he gets re-elected? People use "what ifs" every day. Its a great way to plan for events and future problems that may occur.
I accept that you are entitled to your opinion, but you brought nothing to the discussion….+1
@ Carlos and Galt
We (you and I) have no facts. We are only given what the press tells us.
I'm sorry, but the only way to know what actually happened is to have been there and witnessed it or to be on the jury and get all the facts straight from the sources.
Other than that, we are all playing "what if" because that's all we have. Limited facts, suppositions and a lot of "feelings".
My opinion. There is more to this story. Based on my personal experience. I have tasered and been present when people are tasered. It is not fun for the person receiving the ride. Despite common perception, cops don't deploy the taser just cause someone is mouthy with them. Its monitored closely and each deployment is investigated.
The guy may have had it coming. The cops may have "acted stupidly". But none of us knows….+1
Time to return fire with some 7.62x51mm AP.0

and a host of product placements to reach Door-Door and destroy the Ring Ding of Power. It's like
The Lord of the Rings
movies except the budget is lower and you won't need 10 hours to finish it.
There's kind of a love story as Oregon courts Liv Tyler and Gimpley the dwarf woos the ladies of Middling-earth (both of them). The Elvis lend a hand, providing the travelers with the traditional Elvis food of meatloaf and fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches. Gandolf is around as well, but his spells generally don't work and he forgets things a lot. And, of course, there's Jollum, the weird creature who will stop at nothing to get his hands on the precious Ring Ding.

The Lord of the Ring Dings
Read the First Chapter
"Too bad he didn't finish off that Jollum character," said Dodo.
"No, I believe that Jollum's fate is bound together with the fate of the Ring Ding and that he may play some crucial part before the end," said Gandolf.
"Foreshadowing," commented Dodo.
"The important thing is that the evil Lord Sorehead has sent out Dark Riders to search for the Ring Ding of Power. If one of Sorehead's Dark Riders finds you and the Ring Ding of Power, then all of Middling-earth will be enslaved and the world will be plunged into total darkness. It will be the end of all living things."
"Well, I could move out on Thursday. Can you help me move?"
"No, I'm busy on Thursday. I have a doctor's appointment," said Gandolf.
Dodo looked at his calendar. "How about the following Wednesday?"
"No, I work out on Wednesdays," said Gandolf.
The group moved outside. Gandolf climbed on his horse and helped up Pee-Pee.
"How long a ride to Mini Syrup?" asked Pee-Pee.
"Three days as the Izgull flies," said Gandolf.
"What the hell's an Izgull?" asked Pee-Pee.
But Gandolf's answer was swallowed up by the sound of hoof beats speeding away. As he looked back at his friends, Pee-Pee thought of Dodo, the Shire, and their efforts to save all life as they knew it. Then, Gandolf farted.

My First Post
Hey everyone! This is my first post, and I don't really have much in particular to say. Well, I suppose I can just go on about my day for a while, since I have nothing else to do. This morning I had to get up at 8:30, since I had swim practice at 9. I just joined the swim team this week, even though swimming season began at the beginning of the month. This was only my second practice...so it was pretty hard. I had to run for 20 minutes and then lift for 20 minutes. After that, it was into the pool for me! Now, at my school the swim team is known as a sadistic cult, but actually, it really isn't as bad as I thought....though the practices are definitely tough. I mean, for warm-up alone I had to do a 400 freestyle (16 laps), 200 with a kick board (8 laps), 200 pull (and I hate pull! For those of you who don't know, you put this foam thing between your legs and just use your arms to swim...but the foam thing keeps popping out of my legs!!) and another 100 freestyle (4 laps). And like I said, that was just the warm-up! After that we did breast and fly drills. It was my first time trying fly, and I bet I looked like a complete fool! I couldn't do it at all!! After drills it was time for the main set, which I won't even begin to describe. All you have to know was that I was incredibly exhausted after that! Luckily for me, since it was my second day, Coach let me stop there...so I didn't have to do the sprints, warm-down, and water polo. Instead, I got to take a long, hot shower, get changed and eat doughnuts! I had to have inhaled three in under a minute! I was starving. And after I got home, I had an entire bowl of Ramen! The whole reason for me joining the swim team was to lose some weight and develop a better body, but if I keep getting hungry like that and eating so much, just the opposite might happen! But other than swim practice my day has been pretty uneventful. I've been waiting to see Harry Potter, though! I can't wait until I'm finally able to go! I also want to see The Ring and Ghost Ship, and just about a million other movies. I'm a total movie addict, I could watch them forever!Well, thanks for reading this and unless something else happens to me today, I'll be back tomorrow! Ja'ne!

I'm considering breast reduction, and I'm hoping that the procedure will not only improve my breast size but the stretch marks as well. I understand that stretch marks never completely leave, but any consolation will do. Can having breast implants improve the appearance of stretch marks? Mine are very light, and hopefully won't be too much of a problem.
Can Stretch Marks Be Improved Through Breast Augmentation?
Doctor Answers (8)
Stretch marks and breast implant augmentation surgery
It is suprisingly rare to see stretch marks from breast implant surgery. On occasion existing stretch marks can become more red. In many instances the stretch marks actually improve in appearance. You can test this out by stretching out any existing striae on your breast and assessing their appearance.
Web reference: http://www.bodysculptor.com/breast-surgery-chicago/
Web reference: https://www.edelsteincosmetic.com/
Breast implants may worsen stretch marks, breast reduction may help
Breast implants can, rarely, cause stretch marks. They may also worsen existing stretch marks.
Breast reduction can help if the skin that is removed during breast reduction contains the stretch marks. Also, if the breast is lifted during reduction and there is less stretching of the skin, the marks may look less wide.
If stretch marks are left after the reduction mammaplasty, there is a specific laser treatment that can help stretch marks.

Breast implants and stretch marks
Increasing the size of your breasts with implants may help to soften the appearance of the stretch marks. However, over time the swelling will go away after the surgery and the implants may start to droop. Your stretch marks may then return and could even be more severe. So, having breast implants placed just to help eliminate the stretch may not be the best idea. Unfortunately, there really isn't a good way to get rid of stretch marks anywhere on the body. I encourage you to look at some before and after pictures to see if a breast augmentation will accomplish all of your goals.
Web reference: http://www.DrSchreiberPlasticSurgery.com
Can stretch marks be improved through breast augmentation
Dear Todliche,
A stretch mark is an actual tear in the dermis that gradually heals the way scars do. As a result, as skin stretches, superficial scars and stretch marks, lacking the tensile strength of normal skin, stretch more.
in my experience, an augmentation will NOT improve the appearance of stretch marks and MAY make some worse (especially immature stretch marks which are still pink).
Breast Reduction and Breast Lift, remove specific areas of excess skin allowing the repositioning of the breast to a more attractive and youthful position on the chest wall. If the skin which has to be removed happens to be the skin with the highest concentration of stretch marks, you WILL have a significant reduction in stretch marks.
I hope this was helpful.
Stretch marks don't go away unless they are removed
A stretch mark is an actual tear in the dermis of the skin and after it goes through it's healing process, commonly fades. There are times when a breast implant can stretch them out a bit and make them somewhat less noticible but they don't go away.
Discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon prior to any surgery.
Best of luck.
Dr Edwards

Stretch marks and augmentation
In my experience breast augmentation usually has no effect on the stretch marks. A breast reduction can remove some of the stretch marks, but even that technique is somewhat limited. A breast reduction will reduce the size of your breast and re-position the nipple. Depending on what your breasts look like this may be an options for you.

Greg Land,
Iron Man
Artist, Coming to Wizard World Austin Comic Con!
Hulk, X-Men, Spider-Man, Thor, FF +
Greg Land is an American comic book artist, best known for his work on characters such as X-Men, Birds of Prey, and Fantastic Four.
Greg Land first got a job with an independent publisher as the artist for StormQuest after advertising himself at a Mid-Ohio Con comic convention. After that, he went over to DC Comics in 1999 and was hired to finish the covers for Birds of Prey based on the sketches of Brian Stelfreeze. He also had runs as interior penciler on both Birds of Prey and Nightwing.
Later, Land began to work at CrossGen Comics, on a series called Sojourn. The series ran from July 2001 through May 2004, for a total of 34 issues.
Greg Land was able to move on to Marvel Comics, along with his inker and colorist from Sojourn, after the fall of CrossGen. Originally at Marvel, Land did covers to various series. This led to a collaboration with Greg Pak as the main artist of X-Men: Phoenix - Endsong. Next, Land became the penciler for Ultimate Fantastic Four. He did the artwork for a crossover between Marvels Supremeverse and the Ultimate Universe, entitled Ultimate Power, which was written by Brian Michael Bendis, J. Michael Straczynski and Jeph Loeb. He then did the covers for Marvel Zombies 3 which were all homages to posters of famous Zombie movies.
Land is currently serving as the artist for Iron Man.

I just played a game as Graves and we were getting worked. The opposing Graves made a comment that if I knew how to build a better Graves I could have carried the team.
He may have been referring to the fact that I skipped the Doran's blades and went straight for big items such as Blood Thirster and Phantom Dancers, but he was wearing a Wiggle's Lantern so I am in the dark.
Is it because the armor that Wriggles gives or are the Doran blades all that key?
(or because my damage game isn't up to snuff yet :/ )
Any incite would be appreciated
Senior Member
The problem with skipping Doran's is that unless you're really fed and the enemy has died a bunch of times, you hit a period where you're going to be behind in damage/survivability if the enemy has built them. During that period they can trade damage with you and win, and then use that advantage to snowball and put you farther behind.
Wriggle's isn't bad for AD carries since it gives you AD, armor, and lifesteal, it's up to you whether you prefer that or Doran's Blade x2 or x3.
As the person above has said, it's mostly because you haven't had a chance to build mid-game survivability. Wriggles is a decent early-mid game item, and gives you the sustain and slight tankiness in lane that helps out a lot. If you go straight for the Bloodthirster, you lack the consistency during the mid-game. Considering mid-game is where early team fights, dragons, and objectives are secured, it is more often safer to build survivability and damage at an equal pace for the first bit.
I believe Graves' item build is something like this:
Start: D.Blade/Boots3
Early: D.Bladex2/3 or Wriggle's, AS Boots
Mid: Inf Edge/BT, Vamp Scepter*, Zeal
Late: PD, Survivability
Last Whisper depends on runes/masteries and overall tankiness of the other team.
I usually go 2-3x Doran's Blade then I shift into Infinity Edge. Bloodthirster is good if the laning phase goes on for a while, but it doesn't seem to add half the damage that IE does. If I'm the only one doing well at this point, I'll go for atmog's for stockiness, if the team is doing well, I go for PD.
JD the Troll
I play graves a lot, and so far I've had the most success with this combo:
full page crit runes, start with dorans or boots if you farm well. Rush IE and zeal. get vamp scept for sustain. Depending on the other team, Last Whisper is usually better to get than the other expensive items, it provides more damage against most teams.

The month after my baby pressed the ejection button from my wound, everyone wanted to know, "Do you like being a mom?" I guess people felt the need to ask because either they knew I was originally terrified of having a kid or because it's the go-to question for new moms. Since no one had ever before inquired about how I felt about any of my other jobs, I didn't know how to respond. Did my friends and family really want to know or was it like when you're asked how you're doing? Even on a bad day you can never share that you just got fired from your dream job, got kicked out of your apartment and that your boyfriend changed his FB status to single and tagged you in his new profile pic of him making out with your best friend. As much as these questions tempt you to sob like a baby, social etiquette deems it rude and discourteous to the poor blameless questioner. So for the first couple of months I expressed my feelings about being a mom carefully and respectfully by shaking my head with a restrained panicked smile while saying, "It's crazy!" Though my friends and family never called Child Protective Services, it was clear that my vague answer killed more than one inner party and landed us all in silent Awkwardland.
Although no one explicitly tells a new mom how she's supposed to be, there is a certain understanding conveyed through magazines, the way people smile and congratulate you for having a child and the lack of Complaint Boxes gifted at baby showers. Unlike most jobs that consider collective bitching as a healthy way to bond with coworkers, the unpaid and most times lonely mom has to say how great her job is with a smile not seen since her naïve maternity photos. She must not only like getting drooled, peed and pooped on, she must say about being a mom, as I heard one woman squeal out during a Mommy & Me Yoga Class, "I LOVE IT! IT'S BETTER THAN WORKING!"
But I disagree. It can't be better than working because it is working for long periods of time with no happy hours available when you get off. I just can't fake my love for the position like so many glowing moms because I'm not crazy. The job itself sucks, no doubt about it: minimal sleep, breast infections, diminishing mental aptitude, loss of hearing and the vanishing ability to stay up past 9pm or move around the house at a regular noise-making speed. How can anyone like being a mom? How can anyone like being a parent? Unless you were in a bad relationship to begin with, wasn't life better before having a baby? In some ways yes and in some ways you can't compare.
I really wanted to be grumpier about parenting, or at least be hardened by it and not give into the gush, but being a new human's caretaker, for being as hard as it is, is surprisingly really fun! Like carnivals! There is nothing greater than seeing your kid trying to walk around, getting spun about, greeting you with too much cuteness standing in his crib and laughing the whole day between a few cranky spells before nap time. Plus, introducing him to the world is like living out one of those movies where a time traveller from the past ends up in our time and you get to host and watch as he gets scared, delighted and confused by everything around him. Sure I may be missing out on going out with my husband whenever we want to see a movie or go to a club with friends, but now we do things we never did before because we have to educate our little guy on what the world has to offer. I even have a slight tan for once from being outdoors so much!
This is why "Do you like being a mom?" should be banned from the general parenting conversation. The job itself is much too complicated for such a simple question. No I don't like being a mom, but I love being my son's mother and more importantly, I love him and would never go back to not having him. Sure the job could be easier and I could handle a few nannies here and there, but strangely it's the tough parts of the ride that help me bond with him and make my love for him grow. It's like why Christie Brinkley married that one guy after a helicopter crash. What I'm saying is, who cares if you like the job or not–as long as you try to do it well and love who you're working with and for, that's all that matters.

What is PerfMonitor
PerfMonitor is a processor performance monitoring tool. It allows to track the frequency of 4 events choosen in a set of model-specific list. It can be used to identify the performance bottlenecks of a system, or to monitor a program for cache-miss rate or mis-predicted branches. But PerfMonitor can also be used as a hardware-level CPU comparison tool, comparing the key parameters of different CPUs runnning the same benchmark.
Install PerfMonitor
Install & configuration
Install PerfMonitor
Unzip all files in the same directory and run perfmonitor.exe. You can run as many instances of PerfMonitor as there are physical CPUs in your system (see below for the particular case of CPUs that use HyperThreading technology). The first instance will be attached to CPU #0, the next one to CPU#1, and so on. The application settings will be saved in a file named PerfMonX.ini (where X refers to the CPU number) stored in your temporary account path (typically : C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Temp).
Select monitored events
PerfMonitor allows to track up to 4 events, depending on the CPU model. Each event is attached to a graph. In order to change the monitored event, put the mouse cursor on a graph then click on the left button to make the events menu selection appear (note that the currently monitored event is checked in the menu).
Because of hardware limitations (namely the number of available counters), it is possible that all the desired events can\'t be monitored in the same time than other events. If a requested event is not available for monitoring, the graph will appear in grey color. Note that the events are created from the top to the bottom, consequently the events on the top graphes have more chance to be allocated. Note also that some events need two counters, especailly the ones that tracks a cache level success rate.
If the change of an event frees a counter that allows a non-available event to be monitored, it will be started automatically
PerfMonitor and HyperThreading
In spite of the fact that CPUs that use HyperThreading are seen as two CPUs, the two units share the same processor resource, and only one instance of PerfMonitor can be ran on these CPUs. However, it is possible to monitor events on only one of the logical unit or on both. In order to select the monitored logical unit, open the general settings menu (mouse right click) and select "HT Affinity".
Support this software

text: Concealer is rated 4.1162 out of 5 by 198. Rated 1 out of 5 by LULUTRON from Meh I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. The colors are way off. I got this in light color and it looked like porcelain with a rosey hint. It also lacks of coverage and it wears of very easily, you'd literally have to apply 3 times just to get something going. This, and the blemish kit are the 2 products I'd absolutely stay away from. Date published: 2014-03-18 Rated 4 out of 5 by Jena from Medium to Full coverage, Doesn't crease I have always been one to go for face products with full coverage so naturally I always reached for liquids as I figured they'd provide better coverage but after trying this mineral concealer on a whim, my eyes have been opened to the world of mineral makeup! :) I love this concealer! Date published: 2014-02-18 Rated 5 out of 5 by wk2wx from Love It First time mineral makeup buyer, wanted to try something not too expensive to see if I would like it, before investing further. This was very easy to use, especially as an eye base. I use it over my eye primer, it lets everything else go on smoothly and it makes my eyeshadows easier to blend and lasts all day, especially when I use a makeup setting spray. It serves it purpose as a conceler very well. I will purchase again, especially as the price is so reasonable. Date published: 2013-09-12 Rated 3 out of 5 by Cilly from It doesn't do nothing? It doesn't do nothing, but it doesn't do what I want it to either. I ordered warm, but I should have gone for light. Warm is a little too orange for me. Anyway, if I apply very little, it won't look orange. It covers blue veins under my eyes well and makes my acne less red/slightly smaller. But that's it, even if I make myself a little more orange (haha) it doesn't cover better. It didn't cover scars or my dark circles. I might try the light or fair one and see what that yields me. But probably not. I'll probably try one of their liquid concealers. Date published: 2013-08-12 Rated 4 out of 5 by Natalie from The color is supposed to be lighter! I have seen a lot of comments that the concealer is too light when ordered in the same shade as foundation. Ladies: your concealer should be lighter than your foundation! It is recommended you use a concealer one shade lighter than your foundation. A concealer that is too dark looks fake and makes it look really obvious that you are trying to cover something up. I will say that this does not work too well on my super dark eye circles. However, it is nice to put over the liquid concealer I currently use. It prevents the liquid from getting in my creases and looking cakey. Date published: 2013-07-20 Rated 5 out of 5 by Carrie from What a great concealer! I was skeptical when I first bought this product, but after using it just once, I was sold! The product goes on smoothly and cleanly; best of all, a little goes a long way. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for a concealer that doesn't look cakey. Date published: 2013-04-10 Rated 5 out of 5 by Bambi Bear from In love! I bought this concealer in 'light' as I have light-medium skin tone. I put this over my Maybelline Fit Me concealer (I know, concealer over concealer doesn't make sense) but the both of those together are perfect for me. This powder concealer sets my liquid one and blends pefectly into my skin tone hiding all discoloration under my eyes and any redness I have on my skin. It also lasts forever! I've had it for about 6 months and am just now running out. Date published: 2013-03-08 Rated 3 out of 5 by kokog22 from NOT TRUE TO COLOUR i use this product as spot treatment also as a whole face treatment. it goes on easily and smoothly it also covers well. i do not like that that the colour is so unnatural and has a high red pigment that shows horribly in the sun also the glitter that is in the product is very unappealing i wish they made it a darker shade for African complexion, and also remove the glitter Date published: 2012-08-21 Rated 4 out of 5 by Aria from Best I've tried ! I use the light concealer, and it's perfect ! It covers my dark circles very well, and it's the only concealer that's successful in doing so. And trust me, I've tried everything from expensive to drugstore makeup, and this is the only one that worked. The only downside is that it doesn't last for over 6 hours, and my dark circles start to show. Applying a face mist to set the makeup makes it last a bit longer, but it fades sooner or later. Date published: 2012-08-14 Rated 3 out of 5 by koko from its OK it does its job this product is a good one i wont lie it slightly unnatural colour but it covers pimples and acne spot very well its so smooth the only thing is that it has some sort of shimmer and not everyone like this in a concealer. i use the elf concealer brush to apply to imperfections then use the total face brush to powder the rest of my face it blends excellent just wish is was more of my colour Date published: 2012-08-08 Rated 5 out of 5 by Liv from LOVE THIS I'm not a big makeup person, but I do put on a little foundation every day. Lately my skin has has a little bit of acne and red spots, and even though I dont use concealer I bought this after using a bare minerals sample years ago. I love this! I don;t know why I never used something like this to cover spots before. I just dab it on any redness and brush some powder on afterwards. I'll never need to try another concealer again!!! Date published: 2012-08-05 Rated 5 out of 5 by Ariana from GREAT FOR A NATURAL LOOK! I got the shade in warm and it blends into my skin really well. I use this on days when I want to show a more natural face. You can hardly notice that you applied this concealer. What this concealer does is help even tone your skin. This concealer isn't going to cover really bad acne or blemishes. It is just to use for a natural look. Date published: 2012-08-04 Rated 3 out of 5 by Mia from Pretty good It covers my blemishes and acne scars well and it stays on for a while. It did nothing much for my dark circles for though. But it is still a good product. Date published: 2012-07-27 Rated 5 out of 5 by Tay-Tay from Fantastic I found this product fantastic. Being someone who has had nodular acne and has scars and red splotches where the acne was, the product covered all of my scars and discoloration giving me a flawless look and makes me feel beautiful and confident every time I use it Date published: 2012-07-24 Rated 5 out of 5 by Lissa from A Great Buy! I use this with the mineral foundation, and I really like it. I cover all my redness and other blemishes with this before using the foundation and it's wonderful, if you like mineral makeup, try this stuff. It works with the foundation to make my skin look great, very natural looking too. Date published: 2012-06-01 Rated 4 out of 5 by Jenn from B.E. - This is serious competition! I've use B.E. for years and recent economic downturn has me cuttng back every where. I should have tried this years ago, it is definetly equal to B.E. at 1/4 the price! Date published: 2012-05-31 Rated 5 out of 5 by Jewlii from i've used it for year this concealer i have been using it for years. i usually use it under my eyes. i like it because it doesnt crease and it leaves a natural look under my eyes like i didnt have to use any concealer. love it!!! and will continue to buy it all the time Date published: 2012-05-16 Rated 4 out of 5 by Brownie from Great for melasma This concealer is a soft, fine powder that brushes on easily and blends out well. I got this in Fair, and it's got a rose-brown undertone that doesn't work very well under my eyes or over blemishes. But for brown spots it is AWESOME! Brush and blend and poof, they're gone. This probably would be useful for fair gals who prefer to minimize their freckles too. Love it! Date published: 2012-05-06 Rated 5 out of 5 by Lucie from So impressed! I have scoured the market for a foundation that will conceal the purple marks I get under my eyes. This is the ONLY thing that works. I apply with a mineral concealer brush over foundation and it blends in flawlessly. I am so impressed with this product, I only wish it came in a bigger size! But with a price like that, I really can't complain. Date published: 2012-04-18 Rated 5 out of 5 by Sherry from Love this! I use this as a foundation instead of a concealer and it works wonderfully and covers all my flaws well. I've tried all types of foundations, concealers etc. to hide my redness and broken veins around my nose and this covers it all but doesn't look heavy or fake. I would love for it to come in a bigger size but when I buy, I get two at a time. For us women over 40, this is a must! Date published: 2012-04-01 Rated 2 out of 5 by Orange Faced Girl from Turns orange!!!! I bought this in a store and matched the color to my skin tone there. I ended up with the warm color. I tried it on in front of my mirror at home and it looked great. While wearing it during the day, my friends said I had something orange on my face. I looked in the mirror and my concealer had turned orange. Whenever I use the concealer it turns orange within 15-20 minutes. I love e.l.f., but this was disappointing. Date published: 2012-03-29 Rated 5 out of 5 by Cacidilla from Wonderful! I am in love with this concealer. I just got it today and when I used it to cover the same undereye bags, blemishes, and small discoloration that I had done earlier with some of ELF's other concealer, I was blown away by the coverage of it! I definitely will not be going back to a cream concealer. This stuff is amazing. It is easy to apply, the coverage is great, and you don't have to use a lot of it. Plus, its mineral and better for your skin! LOVE! Date published: 2012-03-20 Rated 3 out of 5 by JT from It's alright I got this in fair and it was perfect for my skin tone, so that's a big bonus. It also covered my blemishes fairly well but did nothing for my dark circles. I'm happy with it and I got slightly more than I paid for, so I'm quite content with that. I'll definitely buy more until my blemishes go away :D Date published: 2012-02-06 Rated 2 out of 5 by Steph from Super Disappointed When I first saw this concealer and the price, I was so excited to try it out! The container is just like any other MAC or Bare Essentials, but the actual product was a disappointment. The colormatch pointed me to get a warm color for my golden skin tone, but it looked a terrible orange color and not natural at all. When I put another powder over it, it was better, but it didn't seem practical to do that extra step every day. The concealer is actually hard to blend too. I would recommend using your hand to warm it up first. It didn't cover blemishes, but it did just fine with a hickey. Date published: 2012-01-29 Rated 4 out of 5 by gribowjm from Good not Great I got the light, instead of the fair, but the light is still a very warm tone. Should have gotten the fair. Stays put really well though. Will get this again, but in lighter color. Date published: 2011-09-13 Rated 2 out of 5 by Kristy The Buyer from Too much shimmer I did not like this product at all. It was shimmery when I looked at it which was not what I like about concealers. Then when I swatched it on my hand, it didn't match my skin tone at all. It made it look like I had a rash; it was so red so when i applied it on my face, it was even worse. Don't get me wrong, it does blend well and all but I wouldn't recommend it because it's shimmery and i don't think people would like that for a concealer. I do use it instead for a blush.

I was a little skeptical, but due to the amazing price I gave this concealer a shot. I am so happy with this product! It gives me all the coverage I need and it goes on smooth and easy. I will definitely be purchasing again! Date published: 2011-08-25 Rated 4 out of 5 by RociBella from Tiny but Mighy! When I first opened the package, I was surprised at how small the container was. I expected it to be bigger but I guess it's my fault that I didn't read the size. As for the actual purpose, it's good for under the eyes and on-spot blemishes. I got it in warm since I have light skin and I thought the color might be perfect but it was a bit too light. Since it was a bit too light, I used it for under the eyes and it worked as a great concealer and highlighter. It covers really good so as it's main purpose, it's a very powerful concealer!

I have tiny broken capillaries next to my mouth and it did a wonderful job covering them up also. I would really recommend this, and remember to get a shade lighter!

When I need more coverage, I'll use it over cream concealer to blend it in. Overall a good product.

BERLIN (AP) -- Germany's second-biggest airline, Air Berlin PLC, says Niki Lauda has left the company's board to devote more time to his new role with the Mercedes Formula One team.
The three-time Formula One world champion became a non-executive director at Air Berlin, which integrated his Vienna-based airline, Niki, in late 2011.
Lauda is joining the Mercedes team as the non-executive chairman of its board of directors. The team's drivers for 2013 are Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg.
Air Berlin said Thursday that Lauda will be replaced on its board by Austin Reid, a former chief executive of British airline bmi, or British Midland.
