Bible in Basic English (BBE) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Now after these things the chief servant who had the care of the wine, and the chief bread-maker in Pharaoh's house, did something against Pharaoh's orders; | 1 Some time later, the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt offended their master, the king of Egypt. |
2 And Pharaoh was angry with his two servants, with the chief wine-servant and the chief bread-maker; | 2 Pharaoh was angry with his two officials, the chief cupbearer and the chief baker, |
3 And he put them in prison under the care of the captain of the army, in the same prison where Joseph himself was shut up. | 3 and put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the same prison where Joseph was confined. |
4 And the captain put them in Joseph's care, and he did what was needed for them; and they were kept in prison for some time. | 4 The captain of the guard assigned them to Joseph, and he attended them. After they had been in custody for some time, |
5 And these two had a dream on the same night; the chief wine-servant and the chief bread-maker of the king of Egypt, who were in prison, the two of them had dreams with a special sense. | 5 each of the two men--the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were being held in prison--had a dream the same night, and each dream had a meaning of its own. |
6 And in the morning when Joseph came to them he saw that they were looking sad. | 6 When Joseph came to them the next morning, he saw that they were dejected. |

Nicki Minaj "Bottoms Up" Makeup Tutorial
Thursday, August 26, 2010
This post is going to lay out everything I used in my latest tutorial, inspired by Nicki Minaj in Trey Songz's "Bottoms Up" music video. This is COMPLETELY inspired because I couldn't get a direct image of Nicki's makeup because the video was REALLY dark; all I saw was pink and purple...I think. My boyfriend told me that this was his favorite look from me so far; that made me smile. I did something new with taking the photos too. I decided to take them outside in natural lighting. I really liked the results! I may do that from now on :) A lot of followers on Twitter were also giving compliments about my Twitcon. I was going to originally upload this next week, but because of feedback, I decided to upload it today! Nevertheless, here's what I came up with!!!

Lisa Frank Inspired
Monday, August 16, 2010
This look was inspired by the tee I was wearing for that current day. The slogan is kind or ironic because everyone knows "I'm" the one that's crazy, lol. What can I say? I'm a sarcastic ass, he he he. Aren't the colors in this shirt pretty? They kind of reminded me of Lisa Frank (stationery collection sold in Wal-Mart a while back). This look also reminds me of candy, so it could be a candy inspired look as well. Here's what I used!!!

Disney's "Wreck-It Ralph" Grosses $49.1M At The Box Office
Could this mean that the curse of the wack video game movie is over? Let's discuss after the jump.
Hurricane Sandy couldn't stop gaming aficionados and cinephiles from hitting the theater to check out Disney's animated film, "Wreck-It Ralph." The movie, which stars John C. Reilly and Jane Lynch, is about a video game character who destroys everything in his path, and it made history on Sunday grossing $49.1 million in ticket sales to place #1 at the box office.
The Disney animated film earned an unique distinction as "Wreck-It Ralph" marked the highest-grossing opening weekend in their animation history.
Hammered into number two submission was "Flight," the Denzel Washington / Don Cheadle starring film, which generated $25 million at the U.S. box office. Coming in at a close third place was the critically-acclaimed Iran hostage thriller, "Argo," which brought in $10.2 million in sales. Directed by and starring Ben Affleck, "Argo" has grossed a total of $75.9 million in its three weeks in movie theaters.
Do you think that "Wreck-It Ralph" signifies the end of horrible video game movies? Get a look at the trailer below and let us know your thoughts by hitting us on Twitter (@VIBEMagazine).

Fantastic! Big bold flavor even after marinating for only 1/2 hour. I added a tsp of crushed coriander seed and a dash of hoppy beer to the marinade. Might use a touch less sugar next time. Also, unless you or your guests are big fans of harissa - or you have a particularly mild batch - it's probably not necessary to make the side sauce.
I used petite sirloin steaks, substituted cayenne pepper for harissa and grilled them on the BBQ - phenomenal flavor.

[wpaudio url="http://idolator.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Yeah-3x-Snippet.mp3" text="Chris Brown - Yeah 3X" dl="0"]
Rap-Up.com notes that "Yeah 3X" is one of the songs set to appear on Brown's upcoming fourth album. If that's the case, it's definitely a step in the right direction if he wants to snatch back some of that mainstream success he once was in control of. The public at large seemed to favor him when he was warm and fuzzy, as opposed to the harder edge he displayed with tracks off his recent mixtape.
As for this new song, it's good to hear him praising the object of his affection again, rather than verbally blasting her. And lyrically, "Yeah 3X" might as well be the sequel to "Forever" ("Baby, we're goin' somewhere you've never been before, so take my hand and come with me").
More of this, please, Breezy.

PCMark 7
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.04
Developer Homepage: http://www.pcmark.com
Product Homepage: http://www.pcmark.com
PCMark 7 includes a range of tests that give different views of your system's performance. In the Advanced Edition, you can choose which tests to run. The common use and hardware component tests are unavailable in the Basic Edition.
Overall system performance is measured by the PCMark test. This is the only test that returns an official PCMark score. The Lightweight test measures the system capabilities of entry-level systems and mobility platforms unable to run the PCMark test, but it does not generate a PCMark score. Common use performance is measured by the scenario tests - Entertainment, Creativity, and Production - each of which results in a scenario score. Hardware component performance is measured by the hardware tests - Computation and Storage - each of which results in a hardware score.
Version and / or Patch Used: 6.5
Developer Homepage: http://www.cyberlink.com/
Product Homepage: http://www.cyberlink.com/products/mediaespresso/overview_en_AU.html?fileName=overview&r=1
MediaEspresso is a blazing fast media universal converter that can transcode your videos, photos, and music files, and output them to a huge range of portable devices, including mobile phones, portable media players, and even game consoles. With technologies like Smart Detect, Direct Sync, and CyberLink's TrueTheater video enhancements, you can not only forget about complicated format, resolution, and output settings, but your converted file will come out the other side looking better than when it went in!
PCMark 7 performance out of the box is fairly standard, as for MediaEspresso, you can see is a bit behind our other Z87 options at stock the performance. The difference is in excess of over a minute when compared to the Z87X-OC Force, which is the fastest Z87 offering here.
Overclocking though, as always, brings with it a great performance boost as you can see almost 3 1/2 minutes are shaved off our encode time, which equates to around 20%.

New ACE Credit Recommendation for work component!
We have an exciting update that could broaden the opportunities for students to obtain credit for participating in our programs at the Disneyland Resort or the Walt Disney World Resort! The American Council on Education (ACE) recently granted the Disney College Program an official credit recommendation for the work component of the internship. Students could potentially earn up to nine semester hours of credit!
This credit recommendation was made based on the comprehensive training each Disney Cast Member receives as well as the participant's ability to apply this training into their daily environment. It was further determined that the skills participants gain while on our program will contribute significantly to their academic and professional careers beyond the program.
Additionally, this ACE recommendation provides the opportunity for more of our students to gain college credit for participating in our programs, allowing them to maintain their full-time status at their home educational institution.
Thanks, Gabe. This will help a lot of our "cast member wannabes" get the information they need. And that was a really great interview.
P.U.S.H.-A mantra MOST will not understand.
Disney rocks, Walt was a genius.

The thinnest and lightest small tablets
These slates are so small, sleek, and thin, they'd give any top models a run for their money.
In the beginning, tablets looked more like the televisions that strap onto the back of a car's seat more than something out of "2001: A Space Odyssey." However, I'm happy to report that the times have changed and so have tablet designs.
After Apple released the iPad (let's give credit where credit is due), aesthetics and design became a more prominent selling-point for the emerging portable devices. Overall, tablet girth has declined, ushering in the new era of thin slates, and we've gathered the ones so sleek, their predecessors wouldn't even recognize them if they saw them walking down the street.
This post focuses on tablets smaller than 8.9 inches, but if you're interested in a bigger display without sacrificing too much bag space, check out our top picks for thinnest and lightest large tablets.
Thickness (in inches)
Weight (in pounds)
Screen size (in inches)
Dell Venue 8 7000
Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4
Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4
Apple iPad Mini 3
Google Nexus 7
Amazon Fire HDX 7
Google Nexus 7
Google set a precedent with the original Nexus 7, offering a pure Android tablet with zippy performance at an affordable price, and the second iteration of the Nexus 7 continues in that fashion. It has few bells and whistles, yet its simplicity suits it and matches its minimal comfortable and lightweight design. It's as light as the Kindle Fire HDX (above) and only beats the Amazon slate in depth by a small margin.
Asus MeMo Pad 8
It's not often that you see a budget tablet with a sleek look, so the MeMo Pad 8 stands out in the saturated crowd. Aside from it's bargain-chic look, Asus packs it with feature-filled user-interface, free apps and a few useful storage services. Those looking for a good deal who don't want to compromise on a slick aesthetic should take note of this Asus slate.
Apple iPad Mini
The invention of the iPad helped steer tablets into the mainstream and the iPad Mini model replicates the successful, sleek aluminum slate but in a more portable form. It's the smallest iPad available and rocks one of the most high-end designs, and if you're already wrapped into Apple's robust ecosystem, choosing an iPad is an easy decision.
Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4
The 8.4-inch Galaxy Tab Pro stuns with its razor-sharp, pixel-packed screen, and it comes with a ton of preloaded Samsung software (or bloatware, if you're a hater), and if you fancy a high-end small tablet that runs Android, put this one on your short list.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S
Planet Tablet in Samsung's Galaxy is a force to be reckoned with. The release of the Tab S solidifies Samsung as one of the most tablet-centric brands and, aside from a purportedly vivid, super-HD screen with life-like colors, the flagship Samsung Galaxy Tab S boasts industry-leading thinness, with the lightweight of a 7-inch tablet in an 8.4-inch package.
Dell Venue 8 7000
The Dell Venue 8 7000 sounds like a tablet from the future -- and it looks like one. The aluminum wrapped 8.4-inch slate packs an impressive 3D camera and robust software to fine-tune and edit your images. It also houses a super-sharp HD screen, zippy quad-core CPU, and will be available in a 4G LTE version. Pricing is unknown, but expect the Venue 8 7000 to hit stores in November.

Maurice Gibb
~ Person
Legal name: Maurice Ernest Gibb
Maurice Ernest Gibb, CBE (/ˈmɔrɪs/ (22 December 1949 – 12 January 2003) was a musician, singer, songwriter, and record producer who achieved international fame as guitarist, bassist and keyboardist of the Bee Gees. Although his brothers Barry and Robin Gibb were the band's primary lead vocalists, most of the groups albums included at least one or two Maurice Gibb compositions, including "Lay It on Me", "Country Woman" and "On Time". The Bee Gees were one of the most successful rock-pop groups ever. Gibb's role in the group focused on melody and arrangements, providing backing vocal harmony and playing a variety of instruments.
Born on the Isle of Man, he started his music career in 1955 in Manchester, England, joining the skiffle-rock and roll group the Rattlesnakes that later evolved into the Bee Gees in 1958 when they moved to Australia. They returned to England, where they achieved worldwide fame. In 2002, the Bee Gees were appointed as CBEs for their "contribution to music", and following his death in 2003, Maurice's son collected his award at Buckingham Palace in 2004.
Gibb's earliest musical influences included The Everly Brothers, Cliff Richard and Paul Anka; The Mills Brothers and the Beatles were significant later influences. By 1964 he began his career as an instrumentalist, playing guitar on "Claustrophobia". After the band's break-up in 1969, Gibb released his first solo single "Railroad" but his first solo album The Loner has never been released.

4) Invest in a Live Action Teddy Bear
"Otherwise known as a 'rich girl dog'. Get a poodle, a tiny poodle, a tiny toy poodle, a miniscule tiny toy poodle or whatever the tiniest little rodent masquerading as a dog is out there right now. Girls are powerless to the attraction of cuddling such an animal and can do so for hours. Yes, just like you endlessly play video games.
Note: headphones are important to drone out the barking and your girlfriend telling you to walk the dog."
5) Be A Girl's Night Proponent
"Get the phone numbers of your girl's closest and rowdiest friends and constantly start group chats called, "Girl's Night this Wednesday" whenever you need some gaming time. Use your best ad copy voice to craft a text to whip them into an all-girl party frenzy, i.e. Girl Power Tonight! We NEED to get margaritas and discuss Christian Grey casting choices IMMEDIATELY!
Nobody really checks who started those group chats. After the first couple of replies, the Girl's Night idea will become a monster of its own, hopefully spinning off into a full fledged Girl's Vacation, leaving you with some guilt-free gaming time.
This solution increases the chances of your girl leaving you for some non-gaming, party dude that bench presses the weight of a Kia car. Life is all about risk."
More after the break...
6) Familiarise Your Girlfriend with the works of Bertrand Russell
"Noted philosopher Bertrand Russell has the smart kid quotes to justify your gaming addiction. From "the road to happiness lies in an organized diminution of work" to the often slacker quote "the time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time", the idea that leisure is a worthwhile pursuit carries more weight coming from a noted 20th century analytical thinker.
Plus, Russell was a British nobleman, who can argue with that? Just be wary of using Berty's, "to be without some of the things you want is an indispensable part of happiness". That is clearly a double-edged sword."
7) Sell Her on Video Games as Art
"Increasingly, the consensus is that games equate to art. In fact, The Smithsonian, the world's largest museum, recently added two video games to their collection.
Become versed in critiquing art and don't discuss the games in terms of weaponry and disembowelments; instead discuss textures, tones, and shapes. Use obtuse critiquing prose to dazzle your girl into appreciating the digital art she is experiencing.
If you can convince her that running people over with a fire truck in Grand Theft Auto is akin to appreciating Whistler's Mother, then she'll be pleased at how art moves you on such a deep level that you are able to spend countless days on games."

The Geneva Motor Show is one of the auto industry's best-known rites of Spring. Every March, the motoring world converges on the lakeside Swiss metropolis to gawk at all the new models (vehicular and otherwise) on neutral ground. It's absolutely one of the crown jewels of the international auto show calendar.
And because it's such a prestigious show, the manufacturers tend to bring their best production and concept cars to the Geneva Palexpo. This means picking out the best of the best is a mighty daunting task, which is why we've decided to expand the field to 25. We've got a lot of ground to cover, so let's hop to it.
A new year is very nearly upon us (and in some parts of the world, it already is), and while it's a good time to look forward to what 2012 will bring, it's also a good time to take stock of 2011's happenings. Modified and tuned vehicles are, if you haven't noticed, near and dear to our heart, and the last 364 days have seen some downright dandies debut. But if we listed all the tuner cars, trucks and SUVs that scratched our itch, you'd be reading until at least half your friends and family broke their resolutions. Ergo, we've decided to cap this list of 2011's top tuned rides at 10, meaning that only the cream of the last 52 weeks' crop made the cut. Here they are…
The German auto industry has long been one of the most (if not the most) respected on the planet. Much of that has to do with its reputation for precision engineering and attention to detail. Still more has to do with knowing that most new models get tested to their limits on the Autobahn and/or the Nürburgring. Bottom line: Deutschland takes this car building stuff seriously.
However, when it comes to showing off those new cars, the city of Frankfurt likes to throw a party every other September, and it also invites manufacturers from other nations to join in the four-wheeled revelry. (Naturally, things never get too crazy, what with Oktoberfest being mere weeks away.) This year's guest list is one for the ages, but we were still able to pick out the 20 automotive attendees (10 concept models and 10 production models) we'd most like to chat up by the punchbowl.

Mudroom Bench [1]
Submitted by BeingHome [2] on
About This Project
With much needed seating in the mudroom, an unused space (nook) was used to build a mudroom bench and shelf. No plans were used. I basically looked on-line and mentally drew up an idea of how I wanted the final product to look.
There were some setbacks such as not like the knock down textured walls (after partially painting the bench). I ended up covering the textured walls with hardboard and repainted.
A bench cushion was made for added comfort and style.
Complete tutorial for the bench is here [9] and the bench cushion tutorial is here [10].
Thank you.

Mesa is considering new regulations designed to ensure that banks will clean up abandoned properties that have fallen into disrepair and become a blight on the community.
While the lenders already are required to maintain the homes, it's common for nobody to care for them from the time a homeowner walks away and the time the foreclosure is completed.
The city tries to send complaint letters to the owner, but it can take weeks or months to determine who holds the title and who should be held accountable.
A new registry of abandoned properties would require lenders to notify the city any time a loan is in default. The city would then immediately know who is responsible in the event the property falls into disrepair and gets complaints from neighbors.
Mesa would become one of about 300 communities across the nation to enact similar rules in the wake of a real estate crash that has left many neighborhoods frustrated with abandoned properties.
"The city shouldn't have to play Sherlock Holmes on every complaint to figure out whose on first, to know who to serve a notice of violation to," said Mesa Councilman Dennis Kavanaugh. "That's created a lot of frustration for our staff and for the neighbors."
The problem can range from weeds and graffiti to people breaking into abandoned homes.
"Pools turn green and now we have a health hazard," said Councilwoman Dina Higgins.
Higgins recalled how the city once scrambled to find the owner of a home where a man had died inside days earlier. The property was in foreclosure and the city couldn't do anything to clean up the home until after figuring out who legally controlled the property. The city worked hard to find the responsible party because of the nature of the concern, Higgins said, and identified somebody within hours.
On more routine issues, the tracking can take longer, said Christine Zielonka, Mesa's development services director.
"We've seen up to four months, constantly trying to make calls," Zielonka said.
The city registry would require a mortgage company to inspect homes monthly to ensure they comply with city codes. They'd also have to display a sign on the property with contact information.
Mesa's Community & Neighborhood Services Committee was set to review the proposed regulations last week. But Higgins, who is the committee's chairwoman, postponed a meeting to have city staff refine a report on the plan. The group is expected to review the regulations in August.
The city may consider a pilot program in that time to see if it can improve property maintenance without formal rules. Higgins said she'd like to see if that alone would get results.
"I'm always open to voluntary compliance instead of regulation," she said.

Serve this colorful Italian condiment with lamb, as a topping for crostini, or on a sandwich with leftover roasted meat or chicken.
- Yield: Makes 1 cup
Source: Martha Stewart Living, August 1994
- 3 large bell peppers, preferably 1 each red, yellow, and orange
- 1 large Spanish onion, peeled
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- clove garlic, thinly sliced
- Pinch of sugar
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Stem, seed and remove ribs from peppers. Cut lengthwise into 1-inch-wide strips; leave curved ends intact. Cut onion in half lengthwise, and slice into 1/4-inch-thick semicircles
Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and onions, and cook for about 2 minutes. Add pepper strips and sugar, and toss for 2 to 3 minutes. Cover pan, and turn heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until peppers are very soft, 30 to 35 minutes.
Remove cover; raise heat to medium. Cook stirring often, until most of the liquid evaporates and peppers are nicely glazed, about 3 minutes. Add a little water, if necessary, to avoid scorching. Season with salt and pepper. Serve peperonata warm or at room temperature.

I first made this wonderful peperonata when it was published 20 years ago, and have always been thrilled with the results. I lost the printed recipe and though I should know by heart, I was unsure about a couple of amounts. Anyway, I must say I was surprised to see the recipe was missing 2 key ingredients: 1/3 cup white wine, and fresh basil (I use a nice handful, chiffonade). The wine goes in right after the peppers and before you cover and simmer; basil is stirred in at the end of cooking.

alternative final battle rules - give me your ideas!!!
Posted 21 February 2014 - 04:20 AM
for the record, i'm austrian, so forgive me bad language!!!
our group is playing arkham horror for half a year now with 4 expansions - king in yellow, black goat, dunwich horror
and dark pharao
one thing we didnt like from the very beginning is that after an exciting and tough game comes a very boring dice rolling game aka final battle
so i was searching for an alternate ending or rule that makes the final battle a bit more exciting and arkhamish... and found nothing than epic battle cards from kingsport horror.... not satisfying enough...
so we made our own rule...
and here it is
once the ancient one awakes, all investigators that lose their stamina or sanity are out of the game...
every investigator who is in an other world travels back to arkham and recieve an ?discover? mark (sorry, dont know the english name for it)
the main game is not gettimg stopped by the awakening!
the onl thing thats different ist that after the mythos is another upkeep an the battle against the ancient one...
encounter other world
final battle
as a result you have to finish two things now to win
win the final battle
and close either all gates or seal 6 gates
we have just tested this version of the final battle with glaaki and abhoth
with these two it works
i dont know about ancient ones who fight with different checks... bur maybe just give them a maximum like fight check +1 in the first round and down to a maximum of fight check -4... didnt figure it out till now
we figured out this house rule not because its to easy to defeat the ancient one in final battle!
we just prefer to lose proud over win in a dice roll playing game!
looking forward for some new ideas or your opinion about that!
thanks , sven
Posted 21 February 2014 - 05:35 AM
There's an interesting variant on how the game could end designed by Amikezor, quite a long time ago:
if you have patience and willingness you can find all the required components on his photobucket.
Hope this sparkles some good ideas
As a side note, variants, alternate rules and questions about the fan creation world should be posted in the specific forum, here. Sorry for being picky, but some people follow that forum and will give you a greater feedback, and those who follow only the main forum won't probably be happy to receive e-mail notifications for threads about variants. No biggie, just sayin'

thanks for that!

Following a death, the first question you or your relatives will have to address will be what to do with the body. Instead of having a potentially high cost type of cemetery burial, you can consider cremation since it is a more economical alternative. Aside from being economical there are several reasons why it is more popular these days than the traditional way.
Here are some facts that you should know:
•At present, about 40% of Americans prefer to have their deceased loved ones cremated. In 15 years, around 60% are expected to do so.
•The ashes of the cremated body are returned to the relatives of the deceased.
•Although this process of burning does have an impact on the environment, there are ways of minimizing it.
•The price of cremating the body is quite lower as compared to the cost of conventional funeral.
•The majority of the states in the US allow home-based care of the deceased, or home funeral service before cremating the body, if you prefer this option you should check out first your state's laws.
In general terms, cremation is the process of disposing deceased body through intense incineration, normally done in crematorium furnaces known as retorts.
Cremating to dispose the body of the deceased was introduced in America in 1970. As compared to other nation, the rate of cremation in America is quite low. At present, around 40% of Americans prefer it, and it is projected that in the next 15 years, the number will increase up to 60%. This process of disposing the deceased body is more common in Australia and Canada as compared in the USA. In the UK, this process is favored than traditional burial 70% of the time, and 69% in Sweden. In Japan, 99% are using this process because there is limited land to use in burying the body and normally practice long ingrained.
The Process of Cremating the Body
The cremation process is simple. In most instances, the family of the deceased can get the death certificate and required permits to transport the dead body directly to a crematorium. It is normal that you care for your deceased relative and even have your own service by having a home funeral. However, the majority of the service is done only in the funeral home. As an alternative, you can have the life celebration or memorial service longer after the body is cremated. Before being transported to the crematorium, the body is covered with a blanket or placed in a container. There is no need for you to purchase a coffin, but some states require an alternative container, most of the time more than a simple cardboard box – the service provider will let you choose.
As soon as the body is transported to the crematorium, the provider will ask the family what are the things they don't want to be cremated like medical devices such as pacemakers and jewelry that may cause safety hazards during the process. The operator or the one handling the process should place an identification tag to properly identify the remains and to make sure the family gets the correct cremated ashes.
Once everything is settled the body is then placed in the crematorium furnace also called retort and is incinerated at temperatures between 1400 degrees Farenheit to 2000 degrees Farenheit for about two to three hours, until the body has been burned totally into a fine powder of bone fragments. The ashes will be given to the relatives present during the cremation or an official from the crematorium will call you up once the process is completed so you can pick up the ashes.

> Will this really increase contrast beyond grade 5
You don't reach grade 5 with dichroitic filters. I guess maximal filtering PLUS grade 5 filter + longer development gets one grade more than dichroitc filter alone. But this depends strongly on the paper. FOMA ist softer than MCC, for instance.

Shaw: A victory for fairness and 'justice for all'
By Andy Shaw Guest firstname.lastname@example.com December 19, 2012 7:54PM
Andy Shaw is president and chief executive officer of the Better Government Association.
Updated: January 21, 2013 3:09PM
It never was about Rich Daley, the former Chicago mayor. Or his nephew, R.J. Vanecko. Or even David Koschman, the 21-year-old victim of a lethal punch Vanecko allegedly threw during a booze-fueled altercation on Division Street in 2004.
It was always about a justice system that must be characterized by its first four letters — j-u-s-t — and by its fairness and impartiality. That's a pillar of civil society, a cornerstone of democracy and a basic principle of good government. When it fails the family of one victim, it fails all of us.
And that's apparently what happened with the initial investigation into Koschman's death, which was riddled with so many troubling law enforcement lapses and disconnects that many observers, including the Better Government Association, believe that basic tenets of justice were undermined or ignored.
No one is publicly saying that Daley pulled any strings. But his police department handled the investigation. His friend and political ally Dick Devine was Cook County state's attorney at the time. And this is Chicago, where there's a Way.
So files went missing. Police reports got changed. Key interviews were either misrepresented or never even conducted, including Vanecko never being questioned.
The initial inquiry concluded that the diminutive Koschman was the aggressor, so no charges were filed against linebacker-size Vanecko. Koschman's head hit the pavement so hard he never regained consciousness and died 11 days later.
His widowed mother, Nanci, lost her only son, and her ensuing years were wracked by grief, loneliness and a sense of injustice.
That same concern also prompted Sun-Times investigative reporters to revisit the case, unearthing and publishing disturbing new details that contradicted the original conclusions. The cops and county prosecutors rejected the newspaper's findings, defending their original investigation. Not surprising — the current state's attorney, Anita Alvarez, was one of Devine's top assistants in 2004.
The BGA filed a legal brief in support of Nanci Koschman's request for a special prosecutor from outside the system to take a fresh look at the case. We argued that justice could be ensured only by an outsider with the "courage and fortitude to stand up for transparency and accountability."
Cook County Circuit Court Judge Michael Toomin agreed with the BGA and with Koschman attorney Locke Bowman's similar argument, and a former U.S. attorney, Dan Webb, was appointed special prosecutor. His investigation led to a special grand jury charging Vanecko with involuntary manslaughter.
The indictment labels Vanecko the aggressor, not Koschman. A complete 180. Webb also hinted at additional charges if there's evidence of misconduct by the authorities who handled the original investigation.
As for Nanci Koschman, she says it's not about sending Vanecko to jail because that would punish another mother. She simply wanted to visit David's grave to deliver a message: A Koschman is entitled to the same justice as a Daley or a Vanecko — justice that protects the innocent and punishes the guilty, regardless of clout or connections.
Message received. It's taken too long and cost too much money — Webb's bill may reach $1 million — but you can't put a price tag on justice. You can, thankfully, put the j-u-s-t back in. At least in this case.

i need a new shower head. I want something low flow but high pressure, if possible. I'm sure someone out there has one they like.... asked Jan 17 '12 at 07:27 edgertor |
I have one of the hand held ones from water management and they are amazing. http://www.takeashower.com/ My last place had water that barely dribbled out and this shower head turned it into a blast. Everyone I've recommended the shower head to has loved it. linkanswered Jan 19 '12 at 10:33 Aaron |
Try Ecocamel (www.ecocamel.com/). These heads aerate your shower as it flows thereby maintaining pressure, but reducing water use. I have one at home that works really well. Only thing to watch out for is that they are slightly more noisy than a standard head. linkanswered Jan 19 '12 at 09:15 |
I have the Oxygenics Storm and one similar to the Elite Oxygenics Skin Care on this page. http://www.faucetdirect.com/oxygenics/c30780?source=gg_oxygenicsgen_oxygenicsexact_oxygenics_e_7422965963_1t1_g&s_kwcid=TC|20470|oxygenics||S|e|7422965963 I've had them both for several years now and they still look and work like new. Best low flow showerheads I could find. Really nice pressure, even in a low water pressure apartment (and now that I have moved to a regular water pressure condo, they are even better) linkanswered Jan 19 '12 at 08:45 Moon |
I also have a Real Goods showerhead, the one that costs about $12 and has a flow rate of 1.2 gallons per minute (and an on-off switch). The realgoods website is down at the moment, but a Google search will turn up this showerhead on Treehugger and other sources. I bought mine from Real Goods around 1996 and it has performed flawlessly all these years; guests (especially those from Europe) always remark how much they enjoy our shower. It gives a very strong and satisfying shower but not the "pins and needles" kind that hurts. It does take longer to wash long hair under it, I'm told....not an issue for me as I don't have much hair left myself. ;-) linkanswered Jan 19 '12 at 08:39 brad |

As part of our strategy for rail in the north, we have big plans for Manchester Victoria - a £44m transformation of the station into a transport interchange that is safer, brighter and more spacious.
The station has been punching below its weight for some time. At Manchester's second largest mainline railway station, we are creating a fitting gateway to the city to meet growing passenger demand.
The redevelopment forms a key part of a £1bn+ investment programme to boost rail capacity across the north of England with faster, more frequent services connecting key cities and towns.
Known as the Northern Hub and North West Electrification programme, the work is scheduled to complete in 2019 and will allow hundreds more trains to run each day and provide space for millions more passengers a year.
Manchester Victoria station opened in 1844 and encompasses a number of Grade II listed buildings and features which we are working to preserve and restore in the redevelopment.
A programme of sympathetic renovations includes work on the war memorial, glass dome, Soldiers Gate, station mosaics, wall map and the familiar glass and iron canopy that runs the length of the station façade.
The redevelopment has been meticulously planned to keep the station open and to allow services to operate.
We are improving accessibility throughout the station and have recently opened a brand new bridge connecting the station with the Phones 4u arena.
We would like to thank the public for their patience while we build a better station.
The Metrolink infrastructure is being completely remodelled, expanding from two to three tracks. Work is being carried out to rebuild the stop and, when complete, will feature additional platforms and improved passenger facilities.
Throughout the works, trams continue to pass through Manchester Victoria in both directions on a single line of track. In order to safely maximise the number of trams that can run on the single line, the stop is temporarily closed to passengers.
Metrolink passengers are advised to use the nearby Shudehill stop for connections with Manchester Victoria's rail services and the Phones 4u arena. For more information on the closure, Metrolink upgrades and service information, please visit the Metrolink website.

I have tried the Bose QuietComfort 15 (QC15) and both B&W P3 and P5 headphones which all cost between �250 - �280. I've also got a pair of Sennheiser HD280 Pro headphones in addition to some old Sony MDR-V300 and Sennheiser Noise Isolation earphones. I can honestly say that the quality of these Sony MDR-V55 headphones is just brilliant and for me these are the best headphones of the lot. They fold easily into my laptop bag, fit very comfortably (much more so than the Sennheiser HD280 headphones) as they're not too tight and the sound quality is just spot on. After trying the B&W P5 headphones, which do sound 'very nice' but for me they didn't isolate the outside noise very much and just cost a fortune. The Bose QC15's were amazing at noise cancellation (only low frequencies, high pitched noised won't cancel out), so great for airplane travel, but I just couldn't see how the quality was any better than my Sennheiser earphones.
These Sony headphones are very stylish yet comfortable, and have a great feel to the sound across all frequencies. The bass is better than the B&W headphones whilst the mid to top frequencies are crystal clear. I use these for both music and listening to my language tuition when traveling on the train, sitting in the garden, etc. They're the perfect solution for that. The only thing I wish it had was a case to keep it in, and a better way of wrapping up the lead. Other than that, for the price you really can't go wrong and I for one have saved hundreds of pounds compared to the other makes.

Fantastic- The best in it's class!,
By Christophe "Christy" (Rhyl, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony MDR-V55 DJ Stereo Headphones - Red (Electronics)
I had been searching the internet for a few months, looking for a pair of great headphones, but couldn't make my mind up. I focused on Sennheiser, Sony, Skullcandy and many others. What I was looking for was a pair of headphones with strong but accurate bass and crisp mids and highs. I struggled to find this within my �100 price budget. I decided to take my phone to a local electronic store and try out every pair of headphones on display to try. I tried about 12 different pairs. I tried Philips, Skullcandy, Sony and Beats by Dr Dre. Well to start off, I was shocked by how terrible nearly each pair sounded. This highs were muffled and there was very little bass, if any at all. Bear in mind this was at the �60 mark! I then noticed these headphones right in the middle of the Beats and the Sony XB600's. First I tried the XB600s.... I thought the bass was good, but that's it. There was no depth or clarity within the mids and highs. I then tried these Sony's and was impressed straight away. They were the only headphones I'd tried so far which had clear mids and highs, but also a great bass response. I quickly realised these were probably going to be the ones. I then decided to compare them to the 'supposedly' fantastic Beats by Dr Dre. The Beats were �170. I put them on and after listening to them, all I could say it that they were terrible. The bass was inaccurate, damp, and the mids and highs were not clear at all. I went back to these sony's and I was once again impressed. I decided these were the ones to get. I checked to see if there were any left and I was lucky, there was one pair left. This told me that I wasn't the only one who thought they were good as all the other headphones were in stock and none had been purchased. I chose the red ones. By the way, they look great and feel very well made.
When I got home, I connected the headphones to my iPad (3rd Gen) and began playing some music. I was very disappointed, I thought I'd wasted my money. The highs were very sharp and too loud. I then decided to leave them for half an hour on nearly full volume to allow them to be 'run in' a bit. After half an hour, I went back to them and my smile reappeared. WOW. It seems the 'run in' was what was needed. The bass was fantastic, and the mids and highs were crisp and clear. After a few days now, I can say that they are fantastic, the bass is very powerful with the right songs, but at the same time, the bass doesn't overpower the mids and highs at all. As you turn the volume up, not only does the bass increase, so does everything else, which makes for a well balanced sound. I've tried many different types of music Including rock, pop, jazz, techno, classical music, film soundtracks (e.g. the Impossible) and many other types. Each song blew me away. These headphones are capable with every genre. I consider myself an audiophile so sound quality has to be perfect for me. One other thing I like is not only hearing the bass but also feeling it. Well with these headphones, with the right songs, you can. It feels fantastic! So that's the sound quality done. Now on to looks and build quality- They look great in the black and red colour. They look expensive and professional. They do not look cheap in any way. I would recommend staying away from the black ones with white ear pads and I guess they will get dirty after hours of use. I find the build quality very good, with no sense of cheap plastic quality. Some have mentioned they creak. Well they're plastic, they are going to. But you cannot hear it with music playing so this issue can be disregarded as it doesn't affect the headphones sound quality. They feel comfortable on the ears and don't feel too heavy. They are not too big either so you won't look slightly strange walking around town or on the train. After a while, they do start to feel slightly uncomfortable so I just take them off for a few seconds then out them back on. I'm talking after over an hour though. One issue is at loud volumes, they do leak sound, so I wouldn't put them on full volume when using public transport , unless you don't care about everyone else hearing your music. I don't find it a problem though because I know that all headphones for this price range do, so there's no way of avoiding it. It doesn't make them bad though, they are as said earlier, just fab. Sony should be proud of them. So to conclude, I would say to anyone who's considering them to not even think about any others, just get these. Ignore all the reviews saying too much bass aswell, they are not to bassy, they give out as much as is needed. I would also recommend getting the black and red ones as in my opinion, they look the best. Thanks for reading and I hope this helps you decide. Enjoy these headphones. They're great, you will never be disappointed.

Sony MDR-V55,
This review is from: Sony MDR-V55 DJ Stereo Headphones - Red (Electronics)
Where to start... what an epic, epic product. I'm not going to lie, I didn't think they would be this good when I first set my eyes on them.
Sound - I've listened to everything from drum n bass, dubstep, metal through to folk, pop and classical music on these headphones over the last couple of weeks. Incredible clarity across all genres of music. The bass has a real kick to it, but that doesn't mean you lose any of the top end. You can really hear all of the different layers of the composition. Volume isn't an issue at all - most headphones I've had in the past will distort when I crank my volume up to 100% - these just sound better when I hit 100%. Look - very stylish. The morning they arrived I took them into work and listened whilst I worked... within half an hour of being sat at my desk I was interrupted 7 times by people telling me how cool they looked! The blue chord is a really nice touch - I love the way it is flat as opposed to the conventional round chord... a small detail, but I like it. Another small detail that I admire is the colour coded "L" and "R" so you can quickly see which ear is which. Comfort - very comfortable headphones overall. A perfect fit to my ears and I get a satisfying feeling when I take them off my head and let them hang around my neck because the material is so soft. The chord only extends from one ear which is another detail that I like - you're less likely to get yourself in a tangle! Storage - an effective folding system makes them easy to pack into a bag for transport. Definitely 5* headphones that I would recommend to anybody who is serious about their music.

I've had a pair of Sony MDR-V55 headphones now for around 6 months, and they just keep getting better, i was impressed by the techincal information, but i was blown away by the sound they produce, it's a rich, deep sound, that doesn't have an overwhelming bass and the treble is clear and precise (unlike many others fashion brands like Beats etc.), also the mid-ranges are not over-emphasised, everything is 'just right', i tried them against many other headphones including Beats (Solo, Mixr, Studio and Pro), Monster (Inspiring and Diesel), Bose (OE2 and QuietComfort), Goji (Tinchy) and SMS (50 Cent) some of these ranging up to �400!!! and they were no where near as good as the sound, many were clearly terrible (especially the Monster, SMS and Beats headphones which had a horrible overwhelming bass that drowned out the mid ranges and treble), although the Goji's weren't bad but not amazing and the Bose's were a good sound but a bit uncomfortable for my liking.
This brings me onto the comfort that these have as well (which I have to admit wasn't my main priority) but I was pleasantly surprised, as well as being the best sounding headphones they were also very comfy (in my opinion) as the soft cushions provide a soft noise reducer to the outside world and all the comfort you need. Overall, these are brilliantly sounding headphones that provide the comfort to be worn for hours and also a price that just beats the pants off anything else i've seen including headphones that cost 10x's the price of these, if you're looking for a great pair of headphones for a bargain, YOU@VE JUST FOUND THEM!

MDRV55 - Great product for the budget minded DJ,
This review is from: Sony MDR-V55 DJ Stereo Headphones - Blue (Electronics)
Straight out of the box, these headphones have a great aesthetic and feel light but strong on your ears. Maintaining a similar style to the older 700 range while delivering a slick new overall design that makes the MDRV55 a welcome addition to the Pro DJ headphone range.
A common bug bare about the old 700 range was that they had a cumbersome and awkward build that ultimately felt like 2 speakers strapped to your head. The MDR-V55 has solved this dilema by reducing the cup size to align more with other popular DJ headphone choices without losing the noise cancellation that the larger cans delivered. The MDR-V55 has a great solid output to the sound - not too heavy in the low end whilst retaining clarity throughout the mid range. After several hours at considerable volume the high end response has not caused any discomfort and have even finally replaced the Sennheisers that have travelled across the globe with me for years. I always liked the sturdy build to the old 700 range - but disliked the easily breakable hinge - the MDR-V55's have been tested over and over for rough treatment and there doesn't seem to be any concerns in my mind that the hinge is likely to be a nuisance. Well done Sony for a great set of headphones at an even better price point than the other comparable models and brands in the marketplace today.

Music to your ears, and then some...,
This review is from: Sony DJ Style Over-Ear Headphones - Black (Electronics)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine Programme (What's this?)
In a word; excellent.
I first tried these headphones when travelling on the Tube in London as I was curious to compare them against my Sennheiser noise cancelling ones and I was utterly impressed the quality of tones they produced. I was listening to music from my iPod and hearing clarity of instruments like I've not done for many years. It was like being a teenager again and listening with good hearing! Ok, so they weren't so great for cutting out the Tube noise (even though they're the 'over-the-ear' style) but they did reduce some noise. Nonetheless, unlike other standard headphones I've tried on the Tube, I could still comfortably listen to music, but most importantly was the quality of that music; it was fantastic; decent quality base for some of the heavier stuff yet still able to reproduce the lighter notes of acoustic instruments. I am by no means an audiophile so I can't talk in the descriptive terms used by these experts but I was amazed by the tonal qualities coming out, I felt like I was listening with new ears! I've used them on my PC at home and the sound is just as good. For the price, I can't fault these at all; highly recommended.

Great headphones but they squeak whilst walking.,

This review is from: Sony MDR-V55 DJ Stereo Headphones - Red (Electronics)
As others have said, bass and mid heavy, la la la.
When walking they squeak and creak. You need to add a very, and i mean, very small amount of SILICONE oil to the 4 points where the arms attach to the ear phones (see pic). Make sure you use SILICONE oil and not normal oil, normal oil will degrade the plastic, silicone oil is designed for plastic. I applied this to mine and they are now squeak free.

Bought this last 2 weeks for USD99 after tried from BOSE, Beats,Senheiser and last Sony.... Tested 5 different model at Sony outlet and MDR V55 stood out the best in terms of sound and price.Listen more to heavy stuff like Death Metal, Grindcore & Black Metal this headphones really deliver the best sound and not to forget great design as well...Well balanced between the sound range while for me Beats spoiled by adjusting more on bass... Really good headphones for those who love extreme music especially the sound of guitar riff while maintaining the sound of double pedal kicking....

These are surely the best headphones in their price zone (and possibly beyond!). The bass sound is deep but really clear the top end is pretty good too and they sit comfortably on the head. The only reason why I've notgiven it 5 stars has nothing to do with the sound, but only to do with the length of lead which is 1 metre. Come on Sony...you could have given us a bit more to play with! I'll have to buy an extension lead.

As a producer of music and studying music & sound, I obviously had to put these headphones to the test and was very impressed in the range and clarity that the Sony MDR-V55's produced. In comparing them to other headphones I found that the treble sounds cut through amazingly but at the same time providing a strong and smooth bass response. Absolutely perfect for mixing or producing music of all genres. One thing that really makes these headphones a step up from many is at very loud volumes the sound doesn't distort and remains clear. The noise cancellation is good and makes it easy when recording drums/vocals. As well as being great for mixing and producing, these headphones are great for just listening to music. They are small in size and fold up nicely and can be fit easily into bags. The cable is wide and feels robust making it hard to damage. The headphones are very comfortable and not heavy on the head which is perfect when watching films whilst travelling. All in all great quality sounding headphones for all purposes and also in a very affordable price range. Strongly recommend. :)

GIGABYTE F2A85X-UP4 Motherboard
Looking at the board the first thing we notice is the look. Being a more lower / mid-range board we expected the baby blue color scheme on it. When we pulled it out of the box, though, we found ourselves pleasantly surprised with the matte black theme. This helps make for a really great looking board with some grey highlights being seen throughout.
Looking at the expansion slot side of things we've got three PCIe x16 slots which run at x16 / x8 / x4 - including the new AMD A85X chipset means that CrossFire is supported. Along with that we've got three PCIe x1 slots and an older legacy PCI slot.
We've got our typical line up of headers including Audio, COM, TPM, four USB 2.0, front panel header and also a single SATA II port down here.
Turning the corner we can see the debug reader on the left side and next to that we can see two BIOS chips. Looking at the SATA side of things you can see we've got six SATA III ports which all run off the AMD A85X chipset.
Heading to the top half of the board you can see four DDR3 DIMM slots supporting up to up to 64GB of DDR3 at speeds of up to 1866MHz DDR. Below that you can see the front panel USB 3.0 header, main 24-pin ATX power connector, a little blue reset switch, a larger power switch and CMOS switch button in the upper corner.
Towards the back of the board in a fairly standard position you can see the 8-pin CPU power connector. We can see that the socket area is fairly clean. We've got a heatsink in the top part of the board, but apart from that, there's really not much else to report.
Finishing up our look at the F2A85X-UP4 we get over to the I/O side of things which sees a combo PS/2 port alongside four USB 3.0 ports and two USB 2.0 ports. On the video side of things we've got VGA, DVI-D, HDMI and DisplayPort connectivity. Audio comes in the form of a single optical out and six auxiliary ports which run off the Realtek ALC892 Codec. Finally we've also got an eSATA III port and Gigabit LAN which runs of the Realtek chipset.

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
In the light novel, Saori is supposed to go Kirino's house for party, in this episode it does not happen.
Kirino, Kuroneko and Kyosuuke is supposed to go to her house to find out why she is depressed, but in anime it is a birthday surprise, and Saori appears in her fully normal form instead of acting as Kaori like in the LN.
Episode is mostly Saori's backstory, which is much less in the LN.
Kaori came back in the anime, in the LN no such thing happened.
Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)
So in the LN, the Saori persona is ditched?
Edit: Oops got stuff mixed up.

HoopsHype CBA rumors
What Stern, Hunter, Adam Silver and the rest accomplished two summers ago became as clear as daylight Thursday. They turned the NBA into the NFL -- the No Fun League -- when it comes to the trades and in-season player movement. No more stars forcing trades to the markets of their choosing with the reward of max dollars forming the cherry on top. "This is a pure CBA deadline," one general manager said Thursday after the dust settled. "If you can't get a first for J.J. Redick, this is a different world. That guy is a surefire lock to garner a first round pick in the past." CBSSports.com
The tax, which kicks in when a team surpasses the salary cap (approximately $58 million this season) and goes above the threshold ($70.3 million this season), is at the root of the change. The dollar-for-dollar format that was in place in the old CBA has been replaced by a structure in which a team like the Lakers is on pace to pay at a rate as high as $4.25 for every extra dollar. But the "repeater tax" is a major factor as well, as – starting in the 2014-15 campaign – teams that are in the tax in four of any five seasons will be paying yet another dollar for every dollar above the threshold as well as facing serious restrictions when it comes to the mechanisms put in place to build their teams. "If you can find a reasonable facsimile (of a player) for a reduced (financial) number, you're going to do it," one Western Conference general manager told USA TODAY Sports. He spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the CBA. "The punitive nature of where we're going with the repeater tax and the escalating tax number puts you in a position where it's just not viable to have a third or fourth guy on your roster paid like a first or second guy." USA Today Sports
Players briefed on the exhaustive, eight-month review of the National Basketball Players Association's finances and business practices have been told it uncovered no illegalities, but the final report is expected to include painstaking detail and numerous recommendations for changes to union policies and governance, CBSSports.com has learned. The review by law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison is all but over and the report -- believed to be more than 100 pages long -- is being finalized, multiple people briefed on the matter said. Investigators combed through more than a decade's worth of union business transactions, conducted dozens of interviews and reviewed approximately 100,000 documents and emails, the people said. CBSSports.com
Union officials have met with 15 of the 30 teams during the past several weeks and informed players that the law firm uncovered no illegal activity or violations of the NBPA's constitution, sources said. But the final report is expected to contain numerous recommendations for NBPA governance, including changes to the union's constitution and bylaws, two of the people briefed on the matter said. CBSSports.com
The law firm also will make recommendations for addressing what it found to be a lack of player involvement in union practices and business. Among the procedural changes to be recommended will be that each team must have at least one player representative and an alternate, and that no player without a current NBA contract will be permitted to serve on the executive committee, CBSSports.com has learned. Of the nine current members of the executive committee, only four -- Chris Paul, James Jones, Matt Bonner and Roger Mason -- are in the NBA. "That could be one of the positives that comes out of this," one of the people briefed on the outcome said. "The players will be more involved." CBSSports.com
In a series of conference calls with the executive committee and player representatives, the National Basketball Players Association has informed players that a law firm selected to conduct a review of union business practices needs more time to complete its report, league sources told CBSSports.com Friday. The report being prepared by the firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison is expected to be completed in the near future. CBSSports.com
While the future of NBPA executive director Billy Hunter, president Derek Fisher and several members of the executive committee whose seats will be up for election is unresolved, the conference calls Thursday were mostly devoted to standard union business. NBPA officials briefed players on the new annuity program adopted for retired players in the new colletive bargaining agreement, the distribution of licensing money and discussions held last week by the newly revamped competition committee on several issues, including flopping. The competition committee continued to discuss flopping and what to do about it, but formulated no recommendations to be brought to the Board of Governors for approval, sources said. CBSSports.com
Fisher (a current free agent) remains in his position and sources said the respective probes of the NBPA -- from the U.S. Attorney's office investigation to the Department of Labor's review to the internal audit being conducted by the law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison -- have yet to conclude. While the last inquiry was expected to be complete by now, resolution or clarity of any kind isn't likely to come by the time the NBPA holds a conference call with all participating players on Thursday. SI.com
According to a memo obtained by SI.com, the "Summer Meeting" was initially scheduled as an in-person affair at a hotel at Chicago's O'Hare airport. A follow-up memo was sent indicating that a conference call was preferable to most players and it detailed a fairly innocuous to-do list for the session. "We will provide an update of current union business and cover matters including the distribution of 2011-12 group license funds, implementation of the new annuity program, and proposed rules changes from the competition committee," the memo read. SI.com
"A lot of players don't have the information, like 'What's going on?' " Dudley, the Suns' team representative, told SI.com recently. "Derek Fisher wanted an audit. He wanted to know what's going on with the money and all of that. From the inside -- and I'm on the inside with the players -- it sounds fishy after the lockout that you want our president to leave, a president who's auditing the head chairman. "So that right there smells wrong. I'm not up to speed 100 percent with what went on. And the reason that I'm not 100 percent up to speed is because I feel like there's been no information [given out]. I think that's a plan for the NBPA and how they want to handle it internally, and that's fine." SI.com
Did you and some of the other big-name owners fail with the new CBA?: Mark Cuban: "We certainly didn't achieve all we needed to achieve. I've said it multiple times that in the old CBA, financially, teams were drowning in 10 feet of water, now we're drowning in two feet of water. It'll be interesting. Obviously the Nets just went out and spent a boatload of money. It'll be interesting to see if that works for them or against them." Sports Radio Interviews
The Goon Squad Classic II has been cancelled. The second-annual charity game organized by Donté Greene was set to tip-off tomorrow evening at Cosumnes River College. However, the former Kings forward and his Circle of Success foundation received word from the NBA that players would face heavy penalties for their participation. "Just got word from NBA (league) office," said Greene in a series of tweets, informing fans of the news. "(Due) to stipulations in the new CBA the charity game has been canceled. Any players who play without prior league approval face suspension and fines. We are saddened by this news and apologize for any inconvience this may cause." Cowbell Kingdom
After Bosh bolted for South Beach the team was force to rebuild and this summer marked the first time they have flirted with big name free agents. "We were in a situation the last two years where we were building to this point," Colangelo admitted this week. "This summer we wanted to accelerate forward. I think the combined moves of the addition of the two draft picks, the addition of a key free agent, the acquisition of Kyle (Lowry), this is all kind of that next step in the evolution of our team." HoopsAddict.com
While Toronto may be rebuilding slowly, this summer some teams are trying to remove bad contracts, debating if they should match big deals or weighing the impact of making a bold move via a trade. So, in many ways, how an NBA team approaches the new CBA depends on where the team stands in regards to how competitive they plan to be during the upcoming season. "Every franchise is really at a different stage," Colangelo explained. "The impact of the new CBA, though, has really thrown some interesting scenarios out there, especially with the amnesty provision and with some of the new tools available with sign-and-trades as you can see with some of the contract offers given to restricted free agents." HoopsAddict.com
Miami Heat owner Micky Arison is thrilled the team won the NBA title, but he says he's hardly ringing up the cash register. Arison told CNBC that the final numbers aren't in yet, but his guess is that the team lost money again. CNBC
