Fireworks ban remains in effect
By RANDY GONZALES
By RANDY GONZALES
ELLIS -- The Ellis City Council voted 4-1 in a special meeting Thursday night to continue the city's ban on fireworks. City leaders had decided in their June 2 meeting to ban fireworks.
"It seemed like a no-brainer then, because it was very, very dry," Ellis Mayor Lyle Johnston said after the meeting.
However, recent rains prompted the council to address the issue again as a Sunday deadline loomed. A city ordinance forces the council to make a decision on fireworks by June 15 each year.
Ellis Fire Chief Denis Vine joined the council in its discussion Thursday night.
"He said he had no problem with fireworks at this point," Johnston said.
Ellis has received heavy rain on multiple occasions in recent days.
"Everything has kind of changed the last two weeks," Johnston said. "We've had almost 11, 12 inches, depending where you've been in town."
As a result, the town council has water restrictions on the agenda for Monday's regular meeting. The city is under a water emergency, the third stage of water restrictions.
Organizers for Saturday's Ellis Riverfest also have been scrambling due to the change in weather. Initially, they had planned for activities in the dry creek bed of Big Creek. However, with water in it now, alternate plans are being made.
"It's a good problem," Johnston said.

That 'Manos: The Hands of Fate' Restoration is Happening
Movie News By Scott Beggs on January 13, 2012 | Be the First To CommentWhen Ben Solovey last checked in, it was with a busted print of Manos: The Hands of Fate and the high hopes that someone would give a damn about the infamous cult classic enough to help fund an effort to see it restored. He asked for $10,000, and he got $25,000. It turns out that a lot of people care about this movie enough to see it saved. His Kickstarter campaign has officially been kickstarted which means that the restoration will happen, and with it come a 2K to 35mm film-out preservation negative (meaning even more Manoses can be born), a commentary track featuring surviving cast members will be recorded, and a doc about the process to save the movie will be made and added to the DVDs and Blu-rays. That's right. There's going to be a Blu-ray of Manos: The Hands of Fate. Let that massage in for a second and rejoice!
This week, on a very special episode of Reject Radio, Ben Solovey explains why he's personally restoring a 16mm print of Manos: The Hands of Fate, one of the worst movies ever made. Plus, I Melt With You director Mark Pellington talks drugs and demons, and it's Fat Guy Kevin Carr versus Geek Tyrant editor-in-chief Jim Napier in a Movie News Pop Quiz that will change everything forever and ever.

Rooftop Party Enclosure Cards I couldn't be happier! The designs were honestly the only ones I fell in love with anywhere! The samples came quickly (I LOVE that they send multiple samples of the colors to give to vendors!!) as did the invites when we ordered. They look great and the paper quality is lovely. The customization was a little tricky at first, but once I knew what I was doing it was very easy to make all the different elements match and put the exact wording we wanted. I've gotten a ton of compliments already and have recommended Magnet Street to my 2 recently engaged friends :D
Exactly what I wanted
Romantic Monogram Enclosure Cards With these insert cards I purchased the invitations and the RSVP cards. With the two other designs I found that the accent color got lost in the black text. However, this turned our exactly as I had hoped the purple can easily be seen and adds a very nice bit of color to the card. Quality is great. Love the card.

The Baron is a British television series, made in 1965/66 based on the book series by John Creasey, written under the pseudonym Anthony Morton, and produced by ITC Entertainment. It was the first ITC show without marionettes to be produced entirely in colour. (Previous ITC series Stingray and Thunderbirds had been filmed in colour, while The Adventures of Sir Lancelot in 1956-57 had the last fourteen of its thirty episodes shot in colour and Man of the World 1962 pilot episode was also filmed in colour.)
Plot outline[edit]
The show starred an American actor, Steve Forrest, as John Mannering, an antiques dealer and sometime undercover agent working in an informal capacity for the head of the fictional British Diplomatic Intelligence, Templeton-Green (Colin Gordon). He is assisted by Cordelia Winfield (Sue Lloyd) and David Marlowe (Paul Ferris).
In Creasey's original novels Mannering was British and, after the few first entries, married. In transforming him into a bachelor and casting a Texan in the role, the producers decided that 'The Baron' would be nicknamed after the cattle ranch once run by his grandfather that was described as being "200,000 acres (809.371 km2) 300 miles from Dallas".[2] In the books he was a reformed jewel-thief (the first few novels described that "career" from Mannering's decision to steal to his going straight) whose criminal ties served him well in investigating jewel, art or antiques-oriented mysteries. For the TV series, Mannering's persona was depicted as absolutely straight with no suggestion of past criminality, a fact underlined by his co-opting by British intelligence. In the episode Red Horse, Red Rider it is revealed that Mannering was in the US Army in World War II in the Monuments, Fine Arts, and Archives program where he recovered art works from the Nazis. Following the war he three antique stores and was a "charter member of the jet set.
Cast and characters[edit]
- Steve Forrest....John Mannering (alias "The Baron")
- Sue Lloyd....Cordelia Winfield
- Colin Gordon....John Alexander Templeton-Green
- Paul Ferris....David Marlowe
Although not regular cast members, Reginald Marsh and Derek Newark also appeared in three episodes (once reprising earlier roles, and once playing different characters). Unusually, several other actors were used twice but in different roles in the same run of episodes, including Paul Maxwell, Peter Bowles and George Murcell.
Production credits[edit]
- Producer - Monty Berman
- Script Supervision - Terry Nation
- Production Supervisor - Johnny Goodman
- Music - Edwin Astley
Like other ITC shows, The Baron shared a lot of its production crew with the other productions of the time (Danger Man, The Saint etc.), including guest cast members Peter Wyngarde and Bernard Lee, and directors Roy Ward Baker and Robert Asher. The lion's share of the scripts were by Dennis Spooner and Dalek creator Terry Nation. A few episodes were written by Tony O'Grady, a pseudonym of The Avengers writer-producer Brian Clemens.
The character of Mannering was like Simon Templar, a member of the jet set, whose glamorous lifestyle was typified by the (at the time) still-exclusive air travel to exotic locations. However filming never left the UK; indeed was filmed chiefly in and around Elstree Studios in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire. Locations used included Haberdashers' Aske's School, St. Albans and Ivinghoe Beacon. These featured prominently in several other ITC series of the same era. The backlot at Elstree in particular was extensively used, being transformed alternately into Mannering's antiques shop, a Mexican town, a Parisian nightclub, an East European police station and many others besides.
Paul Ferris was originally cast as Mannering's assistant David Marlowe. However after pressure from the US network (ABC) Marlowe was dropped in favour of the more glamorous Cordelia who had appeared in the first episode. She is 'reintroduced' in "Something for a Rainy Day", the ninth episode to be made, although broadcast third. As originally broadcast, the 'Cordelia' and 'Marlowe' episodes are interspersed, even though Paul Ferris left the production after eight episodes were filmed.
As with other ITC series, the American market was vital, and several episodes were overdubbed (e.g. "petrol" becoming "gas", "whisky" becoming "scotch") to ensure it was fit for US audiences. Baker stated that owing to US sponsorship by a cigarette company, characters "were allowed to light up only in moments of leisure, never when they were frightened or under duress".[3] Unfortunately despite a promising start it did not do well enough on the US network and was syndicated midway through its run. This effectively ensured no second series would be made even though it was well received in the UK.
The Baron's car was a silver Jensen CV-8 Mk II with the registration BAR 1. Unlike the Volvo driven by The Saint, the exclusivity of the car meant the series did not generate the same sales boost as The Saint had done for Volvo. Cordelia drove a considerably less upmarket Daf 33. The episode "Something For A Rainy Day" featured a clip of a white Jaguar plummeting over a cliff. Apparently filmed for this episode (from several angles), its high cost meant that the footage reappeared in several other episodes and series.
The episode '"Portrait of Louisa" was a reworking by Terry Nation of his earlier script for an episode of The Saint entitled "Lida". Two films were put together for European cinema distribution by ITC these were compiled from the two part episodes. Mystery Island was a re-edit of the episodes "Storm Warning" and "The Island" whilst The Man in a Looking Glass was a combination of "Masquerade" and "The Killing". This led to further European releases of ITC film compilations in the sixties for The Saint, The Champions, Man in a Suitcase and Danger Man.

The news coming out of New York this past weekend regarding the Yankees was, quite honestly, a bit of a shock to me. Both the New York Times and the New York Post, as well as other Big Apple media outlets, were saying that manager Joe Torre was dangerously close to being fired. They even went on to say that if the Yanks were swept by the Red Sox during the weekend series, Torre would be out, that simple.
There were two reasons why this was a shock to me; first it was from two reputable media outlets and secondly, the news had a timeline as well as stipulations for his firing. In other words, this sounded much more in depth and serious than the usual "Fire Torre" rumors that float around Yankee Stadium as though they were ghosts from the past.
The fact that Torre's job is hanging precariously close to the proverbial edge of the "unemployment cliff" is ludicrous any way you look at it, that is except for one. George Steinbrenner still owns the Yankees and regardless of the fact that Joe Torre has been the manager for over a decade, "The Boss" still handles some things based on emotion and knee-jerk reactions.
For those of you too young to remember, let's take a walk down the hallowed halls of Yankee Stadium. In particular, lets look at the wall that has the photos of the previous New York Yankee managers; this will give you an idea of how Steinbrenner handled managers in the past.
In 1913, the New York Highlanders switched their name and became the Yankees; for most fans of the Bronx Bombers, this marked the beginning of their team. Another little known fact is that prior to the team moving to New York they were one of the introductory American League teams, the original Baltimore Orioles.
That season, Frank Chance of the early Chicago Cubs and "Tinkers to Evers to Chance" fame was the manager. From 1913 until Steinbrenner bought the team in January of 1973, the team went through 10 managers and five interim skippers. That is 60 years or an average of one manager for every six years which is better than most teams.
But once Steinbrenner came on the scene everything changed, not just for the Yankees but for baseball in general. He set a new precedent when it came to firing managers and in the 70's and 80's, he did not make his decisions based on patience. I am not going to list all of the managers or the dates that they were on the bench, just the ones during the Steinbrenner regime. Let's start off with some numbers though.
From January 1973 – April 2007 (34 Years)
17 Managers
11 Interim Managers (Of the 11 Interim Mgrs, two of them were fired with new Interim Managers replacing them before the season was even over)
9 Managers had seasons uninterrupted and of those, four were fired after that season
3 Managers were skippers on two different occasions; Bob Lemon, Dick Howser, and Gene Michael
1 Manager had the incredible ability to be hired and subsequently fired on 5 (five) separate occasions, Billy Martin
Finally, the longest tenure of all managers hired by Steinbrenner is of course, Joe Torre
Chronological list of Yankee Managers and their tenures under George Steinbrenner
1973 - Ralph Houk
1974 - Bill Virdon
1975 Bill Virdon, Billy Martin
1976 – 1977 Billy Martin
1978 – Billy Martin, Dick Howser, Bob Lemon
1979 – Bob Lemon, Billy Martin
1980 - Dick Howser
1981 - Gene Michael, Bob Lemon
1982 – Bob Lemon, Gene Michael, Clyde King
(Oh just you wait, there is plenty more to come yet!)
1983 – Billy Martin
1984 – Yogi Berra
1985 – Yogi Berra, Billy Martin
1986 – 1987 – Lou Pinella
1988 – Lou Pinella, Billy Martin
1989 – Dallas Green, Bucky Dent
1990 – Bucky Dent, Stump Merrill
1991 – Stump Merrill
1992 – 1995 – Buck Showalter
1996 – 2007 – Joe Torre
I remember thinking to myself two other things when Steinbrenner fired Buck Showalter who had done a masterful job managing the team through the rebuilding phase. First I thought Showalter deserved another year to get this team back to the playoffs and see how far they could go. Secondly I remember thinking how perfect a fit Joe Torre was going to be with this team that had a nice blend of youngsters and veterans.
What I did not think would happen was over a decade later Torre would still be at the helm! Joe deserves to leave on his owns terms, and the rumor is that he was planning on retiring at the end of 2007. What he does not deserve is to be thrown out on his ear by an egotistical owner who apparently remembered that he can fire managers simply because he thinks he knows best.
Joe Torre has four World Series rings to show for his mastery of managing, if he thought for one second that the Yanks were playing as lousy as they are because his skills have eroded he would step down before the next game was played. His players respect him so much that just about any of them that are asked about the situation will immediately take the blame for the team's sad record.
As I said, the news was a shock to me, but in the long run, I think that Steinbrenner will actually think this one out and realize that firing Joe Torre is not the answer. He learned a hard lesson in the Yogi Berra fiasco and I don't think he wants to take that big of a hit again from the fans. And make no mistake, if Steinbrenner did fire Torre, his already low popularity would plummet to record lows real quick. Joe Torre will get the team back on track and as usual, lead the Yankees to the playoffs. If he wants to retire at the end of the year then he has earned that right. Hopefully "The Boss" will recognize this and do the right thing, which is absolutely nothing.

"This is a great recipe! It actually uses orange juice in the batter. So many other recipes use only the zest. I poked holes in the loaf before I spooned the glaze on top. The recipe makes one large loaf or three small loaves. I've already made this three times --- my neighbor's tree is loaded with oranges! Thanks for the recipe. (Ha..."
"I haven't tried this recipe as yet, but according to the ingredient list you use cooked rice. Is the casserole still too dry even when you use cooked rice as listed in the recipe? Also, instead of bouillon and water, I will be adding chicken broth. It sounds like a good recipe!"

Miraculous Garcinia Cambogia for Getting Rid of Excessive Fats
Are you wondering what the miracle garcinia cambogia is? If so, then we have compiled a complete collection of information about it.
What Is It?
Garcinia cambogia is a pumpkin-shaped fruit that is believed to remove the excessive fat from the body, and the most important thing is that it is used to control the appetite.
What Is All the Buzz About?
In the recent past, it has gotten a very high amount of attention from media because of its effects, which people have searched for all their lives, especially the people who are tired and want to get rid of obesity. The technique of bcaa bodybuilding has emerged once again in recent history, and involves the individual using amino acid supplements as part of recovery to build muscle. Major hype is given to it by the celebrities who use it and consider it to be the best way to get their desired body shapes.
Is It Effective?
After all the starlight this fruit has been given, the common question that arises about the miracle garcinia cambogia is, "Does it really work?" So, here's the thing. There have been many studies first tested on rats and then on humans. While the studies that took place in rats showed that it really made them lose weight, when the experiment was held in laboratory conditions on humans, we see that different lab groups showed different results, some of them showed 1.26% effectiveness and some showed that it wasn't effective at all.
So, we can infer from all the hard and time-consuming studies that took place that for some people it may work, and for some it just won't. The people who get results from it are likely to consider it miraculous while others will just have to settle upon the fact that garcinia cambogia just isn't for them, which means all they have to do is believe in the reality that if there's a will then there's a way and that they will have to strive to get rid of fatty toxins some other way.
What Part of Garcinia Cambogia Causes Weight Loss?
Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA) that is present in the skin of the fruit out of which extract is made is the basic thing that is considered to be responsible for weight loss. Now, how it is considered to work is that HCA obstructs the production of enzymes called Citrate Lyase which produce fats. The concept is that if there are no fats, weight loss can then begin. But yes, there's a slight problem that you should not forget; this all is not totally proven to be effective on humans yet.
Garcinia cambogia is a fruit that is used in many households to bring in some taste to their foods. No, it is not harmful for you if taken in its natural form, but if you are taking supplements derived from it and if they have too many additives in them, then it is not likely to be as effective as it could be. The other thing to remember is that, just to be on a safe side, keep in mind that excess of anything is bad. But all fruits have their own properties, and garcinia cambogia is miraculous in its own way.

Nursing Student Blog Lawsuit - page 6
careful with your myspace/facebook/blogs. (article in its entirety)... Read More
22Apr 11, '09 by SiennaGreenHere is another angle and crummy thing about this.
It is difficult enough to find decent clinical placement for nursing schools. Patients (some) already have a bad taste in their mouth about allowing students (nursing, medical, otherwise) to participate in their care; this and the publicity that it will receive will NOT help that situation.
I really feel like it is a privilege to be allowed to learn and serve our patients as students. While we are constantly told how much they love the extra attention, sometimes having four students hanging over your bed while the instructor is explaining in minute detail your wound change is not a pleasant experiance.
So, as a student, I am saddened because it hurts my future profession's image and because it makes students look disrespectful and unprofessional. -
11Apr 11, '09 by VickyRN Senior ModeratorHer blog is *Absolutely* Disgusting *
I've said it many times - the Internet is neither anonymous nor innocuous. All posts can eventually be traced through the ISP down to one's street address. Never post anything that you would not want to say in front of a crowded room of strangers.
This person was certainly very foolish in openly stating her name and the name of her nursing school. With her hideous remarks, she violated pt confidentiality and dignity, as well as the nursing school code of honor.
She ought to be shamed-faced and remorseful. Instead, she is brazenly filing this lawsuit. Not only will she not win her lawsuit, but no other nursing school will want her as a student. With all this negative publicity, it will be extremely difficult for her to find a job in any healthcare facility ever. -
1Apr 11, '09 by Anxious PatientCould someone please explain how the student was allowed to film the birth. I assumed that any filming of medical procedures by staff was tightly regulated by the hospital so there was no possibility it would end up in the public domain.wooh likes this.
0Apr 11, '09 by thatpasunshineok here is the thing.... i dont care what she said .. i dont even care who she said it about.. you know the saying.. opinions are like $$$$$$$$... everyone has one. i think that my issue with her is the total lack of judgement it showed on her part to publicly blast her opinions when lets face it we live in a society that openly laughs at the constiution on a daily basis. and if people dont have the good sense to know when keeping their mouths shut is in their own best interest.... then they deserve whatever happens. i will be honest i am one of the most opinionated people anyone that knows me knows.... and even i would not have done something so stupidly irresponsibleLast edit by sirI on Apr 11, '09
10Apr 11, '09 by ♪♫ in my ♥It looks like a pretty clear HIPPA violation to me... at least as it's been explained in what I've read and been told.
She'll be fortunate if ALL that happens is getting kicked out of school. What MIGHT happen is that she gets sued by the patient for invasion of privacy and fined by the federal government under HIPPA enforcement. -
3Apr 11, '09 by DeLana_RNQuote from libnatI can't stand Ann Coulter either, but there is simply no comparison. Coulter is no nurse, and anyone who doesn't want to listen/watch can simply tune her out.I'LL be in the minority here and say I didn't find her postings disturbing or proof she could not perform as a nurse. The Ann Coulter of the nursing world perhaps, of course dear Ann is pretty hated.
Yoder's patients, who may be people she despises ("with an IQ of no more than 10"), or women about to give birth to "a creep" (what she calls all babies/children) may not have that option.
I doubt Yoder was able to hide her attitude and prejudices in her classes or clinicals. Kudos to the nursing school for finally doing the right thing (well, she gave them the rope...).
DeLana -
0Apr 11, '09 by LandslideRNDear FirestarterRN,
I agree with you, btw. Calling the baby a "creep"...I don't get it (and then capitalizing it yet!). If she was really just "blowing off steam", I would NOT have put that on a public page!!! Her writing IS terrible and, ironically, maybe that will serve her well in her case to come. Not everybody writes well, contrary to what CCC would like to believe.
From reading her page I was able to tell she worked at a hospital, but it was impossible to tell if she was a nurse or not. I figured she was a nursing assistant or something by the way she talked. But she's already a nurse? I suppose I could look up her license, if she had one, on the La SBON website...if I felt like I had the energy. And I wold have thought that a registered nurse would have more brains than to talk like that.
I do NOT agree with the things she has said, mind you. I just don't believe she should have been dismissed for those remarks. Of course, even if she wasn't dismissed, they would have made it very VERY hard for her to pass. And, like someone else said on this page, she has the right to free speech, nobody sanctioned this, but as a registered nurse she is expected to hold herself to those standards. As I tell all my friends, "I'm no longer just a person, but a registered nurse." There's no written rule saying we have to be more perfect than others. It's just the way it is. Everything we do is ALWAYS under scrutiny by the powers that be, whether we are at work or in school or at an amusement park. She's going to pay a heavy price for letting her mouth/fingers run rampid.
And since when do they let students in to videotape a birth? I was very confused by that part too.
BTW...I love your name, Firestarter. Don't get me wrong. I like to think of myself as a bit of a closet pyromaniac myself, if I had the safe environment to be one...but I don't...so I can't play with fire.

4Apr 11, '09 by twowI looked at her MySpace page. She comes off as an angry, racist gun fanatic with a violent streak who hates babies, hates God, and hates people who believe in God, and worse yet insists on her right to spout off her hate for others because of the freedeom of speech. Just the fact that others are concerned about her bringing guns to school, true or not, speaks of her character. She is bitter and has poor judgement. I would not trust her to care for the population-at-large. And I sure as hell wouldn't want her to represent my nursing program.
1Apr 11, '09 by DeLana_RNQuote from Anxious PatientI was wondering about that myself. I assume the pt gave her permission (and will, no doubt, very much regret that now).Could someone please explain how the student was allowed to film the birth. I assumed that any filming of medical procedures by staff was tightly regulated by the hospital so there was no possibility it would end up in the public domain.
But is it ever permissible, even if the pt agrees? And where was her clinical instructor during all this time?

Last spring, 128 farmers from 16 states enrolled in the Soy Booster Field Trial program, sponsored by FMC and NACHURS. Through this program, farmers had the opportunity to try FMC's Capture LFR (Liquid Fertilizer Ready) insecticide and NACHURS HKW6 liquid starter fertilizer on soybeans.
ASA helped facilitate the trial by promoting enrollment in the program to ASA members. The trial provided farmers with the opportunity to observe and measure how application of the insecticide with starter fertilizer could enhance production on their farm. Each farmer devoted 20 acres of treated and 20 acres of untreated soybeans to the trial. soybooster
Results of the program were very positive, with 74 percent of the plots showing positive results from using Capture LFR and NACHURS HKW6. Farmers who participated in the program in Michigan, North Dakota and Wisconsin observed yield increases in 100 percent of their test plots.
"FMC appreciates the evaluations of the ASA members who participated in the Soy Booster Field Trial Program," said Rick Kesler, FMC Business Services Manager.
"It was very helpful to have so many farmers participate in the trial and report their results. The significant participation in this program shows that there continues to be strong interest in research to improve soybean yields, and this also remains a top priority for FMC."
The average stand increase was 3,170 plants per acre. Most yield increases averaged about two bushels per acre. However, in some plots the increase was as high as 9 bushels per acre.
For details about the number of Soy Booster Plot plot locations per state, please see the map below.

Development of Commercialized ProductsThere are different levels of control in gene expression. PTMs provide huge variability and are the ultimate proteome diversification. Phosphorylation is in all aspects of cell life. At all time, one third of the proteins within an organism are phosphorylated. A kinase takes the phosphate from ADP and puts it onto an enzyme. Gleevec was the first FDA approved kinase inhibitor. It was said to be the "wonder drug" for cancer treatment. Cancer causes mis-regulation in phosphorylation. Phosphorylation is hard to study because it is so diverse. This causes little drug approval when dealing with phosphorylation. Drug companies try to reduce costs in drug discovery and preclinical steps. Usually the drugs designed to affect phosphorylation have high effectiveness, but the scope of its use decreases. pIMAGO is the molecule that Dr. Iliuk developed. It binds only to phospho-proteins. It is used mainly for kinase inhibitor screening.
When forming a company,
you need to ask yourself three questions.
- So what? - does it provide an improvement on
current technologies?
- Who cares? - academic labs, research
institutions, companies?
- Why you? - Inventors on board, ability of others
to make product(s) as well?

Other Pets at MidArizona Shetland Sheepdog Club Resuce
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Cubby, a apache junction Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog for sale in apache junction, or seeking a Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog dog from a breeder in apache junction.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in apache junction already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a apache junction breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog breeders who help with Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in apache junction paves the way for another one to be saved.

Andrew Unterberger, TBJ's traveling basketball correspondent, was in Toronto last night for Raptors-Warriors. Here's his report…
North of the border for the second time in two months — the first a jaunt to Montreal with friends a few months ago for some poutine and old-school Expos garb, the second a visit to Toronto last night to see the Raptors take on the Warriors. The good news is that I'm getting much better at handling the border questionings — my first trip over, I wilted under the (mostly imaginary) pressure and was seconds away from confessing to smuggling infractions I probably didn't actually commit. Now I've got the routine down — short, unelaborative answers, and unwavering eye contact. You can't scare me, you wannabe Mounties.
Of course, while I was in town, I met up with the good people of The Basketball Jones, who were gracious enough to show me around their new digs and to take me out to dinner at Real Sports, the It sports bar of downtown Toronto. Of course, the place was booked solid, so we ended up going to the nearby Hoops, which was sold to me as being "like Real Sports, but worse in every possible way." Still, a meal on company dime is a meal on company dime, and I got to try Hoops' official "Toronto Burger," which included back bacon, definitively the second-most wonderful Canadian foodstuff not to sufficiently trickle its way down south.
Then to the ACC, where I'd be seeing the Warriors as an away team for the second game in a row. Couldn't ask for a much better match-up, though — with the Warriors' scoring-happy backcourt, and the Raptors' defense-sad frontcourt, I was sure to get an entertaining contest, in the very least.
The Stadium: The Air Canada Centre (and can I tell you what a joy it is to temporarily be able to use the "–re" spellings for words and not feel like an asshole for doing so — no wonder people are so happy here) is located in the center of what I'm told is a recently-constructed sort of downtown hub, with bars, gift shops and other stores making a nice complement for the already very pretty ACC. (The nearby CN tower even seemed to be lit up in old-school Raps colors.) Tas commented that they were trying to get the All-Star Game around there within the next two years, and I have to say that weather aside, it seems like a fairly logical fit. According to some, Toronto is the "White Vegas," so consider the dunk slammed on that one.
I'd also like to salute the Raptors for having the first mascot I've seen this trip that actually felt like a true team mascot, and not some shallow and poorly-dated attempt at a cultural grab-on. The Raptor was gettin' in the business all night, pumping up the crowd, rhumba-ing up a storm to Pitbull, and providing the funniest pre-filmed sketch I've seen at an NBA game in some time, where he snuck up on Raps employees with an air horn (ultimately getting the tables turned on him by coach Jay Triano). A pro's pro, and most importantly, not at all weird or creepy.
Coulda used a slightly more creative name, though. Only complaint.
The Game: On maybe the best night for closely-contested basketball games between two solid teams of this young NBA season, Raps-Warriors was not particularly closely-contested and featured one solid NBA team at the most. Nonetheless, it was an imminently watchable contest, with a number of legitimate highlight plays on both sides — none better than this Sonny Weems jam, after ruthlessly shedding Monta Ellis in the back-court. The Raptors fell behind early thanks to some unconscionable interior defense, but battled back late to at least make it a game, thankfully getting the crowd into it in the fourth quarter.
My heart went out to poor Reggie Evans, an old buddy of mine from when he was with the Sixers, and an inevitable fan-favorite (and surprise stat-stuffer, averaging 13 boards a game going into last night) with the Raptors. "Whether it's true or not, Toronto likes to think of itself as a blue-collar city," Raptors writer for the National Post Eric Koreen told me. "[Evans] is exactly the kind of guy who Torontonians just gravitate to." But even scrappers have off nights, and Reggie had one of the worst cases of the dropsies I've seen, losing countless rebounds and passes through his fingers, unable to give the crowd the hustle plays they so badly wanted to cheer for.
The game's greatest joy, unsurprisingly, was Monta Ellis and Stephen Curry. I wrote about the rush of witnessing Monta flying to the rack when he played the Pistons the night prior, and once again, No. 8 was on fire in the first half, absolutely undeniable within ten feet of the rim. (And if anyone was going to deny him, it certainly wasn't Andrea Bargnani). But after a big first two-and-a-half quarters, he took something of a back seat to Curry for the the game's final 3/8ths, as Steph proved himself just as enthralling with his variety of scoring moves, cutting to the basket, doing his Dream Shake imitation in the lane, and spotting up for some of the most geometrically-stunning three-point splashes you're likely to witness on an NBA court.
It makes you start to wonder about the potential for these two guys in general. Within a couple of years, it seems likely that they'll both be among the ten most gifted scorers in the league — Monta's aleady there — and I could see them becoming the first backcourt in I don't know how long to average a combined 50 points a game. You'd think that such a back-heavy scoring attack wouldn't end up a recipe for wins, but here the Warriors are at 5-2. We need Monta to recover from his back injury as quickly as possible (preferably in time for my game in Golden State on the 22nd), and more importantly, we need a catchy nickname for this duo, pronto. (No ideas yet, though it did occur to me that they're only a "Ken" away from being able to pun off of 90s R&B trio MoKenStef).
One final game note: On Asian Heritage night, it was cool getting to see Warriors backup point and Harvard alum Jeremy Lin do his thing in extended first-half minutes. He might not be able to do anything else — he didn't shoot many jumpers, I didn't see any standout moments defensively, and his athleticism looked about average — but the boy can pass. His passes were positively Nashian in their whip-smart speed, accuracy and vision, and he found the open man cleanly on something like four or five consecutive second-quarter possessions. As Bill Simmons would say, he has the Point Guard Gene, pure and simple. He'll be fun to watch in the upcoming years.
The Fans: As I mentioned several times to the Jonesers, the crowd was by far the best and biggest of the stadiums I've seen thus far — which was clearly more of a damning of the current state of basketball in the Northeast than a compliment to the Raptors crowd, which Skeets said was the worst he had ever seen. (Hey, at least all of the sections actually had people in them — more than I can say for some.) Still, the fans that showed really showed, and I was impressed with the fervor they put into rooting on such a losing team on such an off night (which included some hearty boos at a timeout down 43-26). The building got legitimate in the fourth, and the cheers for an Amir Johnson alley-oop and a momentum-stealing Andrea Bargnani three as the Raptors mounted their semi-comeback were easily the loudest of my trip.
The most interesting thing about the stadium and fanbase, to me at least, was the ghost of Chris Bosh. For a guy who had absolutely defined the franchise for the last seven years, it was incredible to me the way memory of him seemed to be positively wiped from the arena — no mention, nothing I saw on the walls or at the gift shop, and not a single person wearing his jersey except for one guy I saw as I was walking out of the stadium. (Even Vince Carter, veritable cultural pariah, had at least a couple fans rockin' the retro 15s.) "I think Bosh genuinely likes the city and played hard for seven years here," said Eric. "But this is a fanbase that does not take kindly to the notion that they are less than worthy, especially when comparing the Raptors to the 29 other American teams." Hard to argue with.
The void is especially noticeable given the team's current lack of star power. The fans seem to want to latch onto Andrea Bargnani and DeMar DeRozan as potential franchise guys, and one guy I talked to even seemed to think that Bargnani could be the next in line as the go-to guy after Bosh. But right now, it's clearly a spot up for the taking, and as Eric suggested to me, it might take a couple good draft picks for that role to really be filled. (The good news: At 1-6 currently, the Raps are on a pretty good track to land the first of those in '11.)
Most Popular Jerseys: Toss-up between Andrea Bargnani and Jose Calderon for current, with Bargnani probably just getting the nod. For retro … it's hard to have a consistent favorite when your franchise's best players keep getting written out of team history. There were some fun and minorly surprising throwbacks to be had, though, including showings from Jalen Rose, Anthony Parker and even Alvin Williams.
Also Worth Noting: One particularly die-hard fan shown on the Jumbo actually had the team's old school dinosaur logo shaved into the back of his head, getting a nice round of applause for his efforts. I had a conversation with the guy sitting next to me about how that guy lives his day-to-day life, going to job interviews and whatnot. "The world needs fans like that, I guess," I concluded. "They do it so we don't have to."
Swag Acquired: Raptors mug with the paw-thing logo on it. Personally, I don't get why they ever strayed from the dribbling raptor — sure, it still brings back traumatic memories of the dinosaur-crazed mid-90s (helllloooo, Whoopi) but at least it didn't look like something the Bobcats could have gotten away with using.
Sirius/XM Jam of the Day:
The Spinners – "Love Don't Love Nobody."(Soul Town, XM 53) Lesser-remembered hit from the Detroit 70s soul legends. First half-minute guaranteed to give you 90s middle-school slow-dance flashbacks.
Next up: Cleveland, for a Wednesday game against the Nets, in the second of my "Jiltees" back-to-back. (Kudos, Eric.)
