An outdoor water garden is an obvious "zen" space - a private spot to meditate and enjoy the scenery. This combination of colors and variety of textures could be easily appropriated for indoor spaces, as well.
I love the idea of walking into a home that is immediately calming. This spare entryway is full of style - love the light, the dark floors and the green of the door - but it is undeniably relaxing.
Dining rooms are sometimes fussy and over the top and anything but relaxing. This dining space, though, is orderly and symmetrical and though it's not sloppily comfortable (no dinner on the couch here), it's perfect for quiet dinners on slow nights. Then again, it also looks like a good table for a party. A relaxing party, but a party nonetheless.
As with dining rooms, family rooms are often so filled with people and animals and other stuff that they're associated with anything but calm. I love this space, though, for its neutral colors and the combination of warm wood with quiet white walls. It's a great example of a living space that's both calm and full of character.
A calm bath is an oasis. This one, with it's orderly design, natural light and quiet gray walls is a study in organization designed to calm the mind.
Baby's rooms are often stuffed full of color and movement and texture. That's great for some children, but what about bedtime? It's nice to have a little corner, at least, where quiet prevails. I love this nursery for its white walls and furniture.
White is a great color in a grown-up bedroom, too. This room, with it's comfortable bed, enormous windows, great wallpaper, and spare, but cool, accessories is an excellent example of a bedroom that puts relaxation first.
Sometimes, especially for older children, it's important that the bedroom fill multiple roles. In those cases, it can be difficult to avoid clutter and a the feeling that the room does too many things at once. This room, while certainly multipurpose, avoids that distracting buzz by adopting a neutral palette and relying on white in most spots. The result is a room that's both calming and hyperfunctional.
This room is my visual definition of "calm." I love everything about it, from the iconic form-meets-function armchair to the walls lined with books, the intense view of the wooded yard and the warmth of the fireplace. Even five minutes in this space would lower my blood pressure.

The big thing is to have as much as you can spelled out in the rules. It everything is spelled out, there can be no misunderstanding. We always vote on rule changes each year. I think if you do that, it gives everyone a good feeling rather than you just changing the rules yourself. We never let first year owners vote on rules. I feel the new owners need to be in the league for a year to see how it operates before having a good say on changes. Our rules are pretty good I feel.

Waiver pickups to be tracked via player fees (although they won't be charged).All free agent pickups to be done via the waiver system: any player who picks a free agent up directly without using the waiver system shall forfeit the player, forfeit the transaction count, but shall have the option of having restored any players dropped, at no additional transaction cost.All non-drafted players have in-season salary of $1 when picked up but if kept, have a second season salary of $5 plus the standard keeper increase.After the first season, any and all changes to the scoring system requires a 7 out of 10 super-majority vote, or at least 70% of remaining members if there are any dropouts.Loser in a season has to play treasurer in the next.Money to be collected.

Moth Eye Technology Proves Difficult to Copy
by Brian Thomas, M.S. *
Moths can see very well, even at night, and their eyes have a special built-in anti-glare feature so that reflected light does not alert predators to their presence. Engineers are interested in copying these anti-glare design principles, which could revolutionize whole industries with glare-free displays.
Sound-proof rooms are lined with ridge-shaped foam so that incoming sound waves are deflected into the walls and absorbed. Similarly, the surface of a moth's eyes contains ridges that are smaller than the wavelengths of incoming light rays. This way, the light is deflected and absorbed, not reflected.
One way to reduce glare on a flat-screen television, for instance, is to spray a layer of nanoparticles onto the screen. But the nanoparticles fall off too easily, especially when homeowners clean the screen's surface.1 Researchers attempted to solve this problem by constructing a mold with nanoscopic ridges, but they had a hard time separating the cooled plastic from the mold's bumpy inner surface.
An advance was made last year when a special coating was applied to the mold to help the plastic detach more easily. Eventually, the researchers hope to invent an inexpensive, mass-producible "moth eye" surface that can be added to cell phone screens, televisions, automobiles, solar panels, and many other products.
The problems encountered in copying the "moth eye" design clearly show the genius and effort needed to originate any such technology. Carefully applied knowledge and constructive techniques are required, which are the opposite of randomizing natural processes. And the fact that moths themselves already have built-in solutions to similar problems testifies to their having been designed by a superior Engineer.
Despite the fact that intelligent human designers still have "a lot of work to be done" to catch up with this particular technology, evolutionary science continues to insist that moths' anti-glare eye properties came from non-thinking nature. If nature alone could accomplish such feats in the past, then why are diligent designers having such trouble coming up with even the most basic copies?
An article posted on LiveScience stated that "the lusterless eyes of moths…evolved to prevent light from reflecting off them and catching predators' attention."1 But the fact that so much focused labor is required just to mimic one aspect of the moth's eye shows that such an assertion is wrong, and that the original high-tech eyes had to have been made by a Master Designer.

Remember the old days when you listened to the radio on your radio? When your presenters were faceless, and you had to rush home to make sure you didn't miss your one chance to hear your favourite band play live on air?
For fans of triple j, those days are well and truly over. triple j is radio (covering over 98% of the nation in big FM stereo), television (triple j tv), print (jmag) and on-line (www.triplej.net.au). On-demand, wherever and however you want it.
Some things haven't changed though. triple j – in all its incarnations – is still all about the music. WE LOVE MUSIC. We love music made in bedrooms and garages around Australia by people we've never heard of. We love new music from our favourite bands from here and all over the world. We love music that we unearth (www.triplejunearthed.com), that we see live, and that we discover online (sometimes before the music has been officially released). We play new music because we like it and we think you will too. We play it first, sometimes months before commercial radio.
While we're on subject of commercials, you should know that triple j is completely AD-FREE. We ain't pimpin' no-one's shit (unless it's our own), no matter what the price.
triple j is for young Australians. We're not so interested in the rest. Whether it's bringing live music to all corners of the country, or uncovering the stories that matter to you, triple j is here to satisfy all your musical and cultural needs.
It was a hot summer's day when triple j first began broadcast on 19 January 1975 in Sydney, launching onto the airwaves, and straight into controversy by playing as its first track, the then-banned Skyhooks track 'You Just Like Me 'Cause I'm Good in Bed'. In the beginning the station was called 2JJ, and it broadcast on the AM band, which is a fossil yard now, and on 1 August 1980 the station moved to the FM band and renamed itself 2JJJ.
In 1989, triple j began the first of its re-launch campaigns, a plan to expand into all the capital cities of Australia, including Newcastle in NSW, and in so doing became Australia's only national youth broadcaster.
From there, the station expanded yet again to 18 rural centres across Australia in January 1995, the first stage in a plan to reach a total of 46 regional centres of the country. Since the end of 1996, triple j has been a truly national network, broadcasting to places such as Broken Hill, Dubbo, Grafton, Taree, Wollongong, Cairns, Rockhampton, Ballarat, Bendigo, Alice Springs, Kalgoorlie, Wagga Wagga, Mildura, Warrnambool. The list goes on and on...
Believe it or not, dozens of smaller communities have actually funded their own triple j transmitter. It makes us very proud.
triple j tv was launched as jtv in 2006. We thought it was high time that there was a show on tellie for people who care about music, who are interested in issues that affect their lives and want to see it everywhere. Switch on to see new music, interviews, current affairs, documentaries and comedy that takes triple j's irreverence, independence, authority and attitude, and brings it to life in a whole new dimension.
www.triplej.net.au kicked off in 1995 with only four pages, but lots of enthusiasm. Today the pages number over 10,000. It looks rather fetching, don't you think? But www.triplej.net.au is not just a pretty interface. It's your one-stop shop for access to everything we do. Listen! Ogle! Download! Stream! Find out the details of that track you've been loving, check out our presenter's blogs, or relive an artist's live studio performance when it suits you.
jmag, the hard copy version of triple j, first hit the shelves as a quarterly mag in 2005. It went monthly mid 2007 and we STILL have trouble cramming all the reviews, interviews and juicy goss from triple j into one issue.
For a lot more than a decade we've been bringing live music alive to air every week with Live at the Wireless. Don't miss the sound bytes of our Live at the Wireless sessions every Monday night at 8pm and Sunday afternoon at 5pm, without fail!
As early as 1977, we began recording and releasing bands and artists on black shiny vinyl. By the time the 90s rolled round our "Live at the Wireless" compilations were already legendary.
In addition, we have our annual One Night Stand. It's more of a three month affair really, when we get seduced by regional towns right across the land, and repay the favour by heading to one of those towns with a bunch of Australia's best bands in tow. That's one hot date.
You can bet that wherever there's live music, we'll also have some tv cameras and photographers trailing along so it can all be seen on triple j tv and online.
Supporting the Australian music scene is important to us which is why we spend a lot of time recording and promoting Australian artists and live music. Check out the triple j gig guide to catch the latest acts triple j is recording and touring around the country.
Having trouble hearing us? Check reception advice here >>
triple j is giving you even more ways to discover new music and enjoy your favourite tracks. You can get podcasts, get social, get mobile and get all sorts of streaming goodness.
triple j podcasts receive more than a million downloads each month, with the 'new music podcast', 'live music podcast', 'Hack', and 'Tom and Alex', consistently appearing in the top 10 podcasts on iTunes.
triple j also has one of Australia's biggest brand profiles on Facebook, with nearly half a million highly engaged Facebook fans. triple j's Twitter is also reaching almost 100,000 followers. And you can hang out with us any way you like on Instagram, Tumblr, and Pinterest.
If you're out and about you can take us in your pocket with triple j and triple j Unearthed apps for iPhone and we are currently working on providing support for other mobile devices, including Android.
Like streaming? You can stream our station live 24/7 and catch the past week's shows streaming for 7 days on our website. And if you demand more on-demand, get the triple j app on Spotify to hear our feature albums, the newest tracks on the Hitlist, get every past year's Hottest 100 tracks, and read current Music News while you're at it. On Rdio you can get triple j presenter playlists direct from their headphones to yours, hear the latest tracks on the Hitlist and listen to past Hottest 100 playlists. We love music, and these online jukeboxes have got a whole lot of it.
Like our listeners, triple j loves music and playing with the latest technology. So get busy with triple j online and mobile!
triple j tv is available as a free to air broadcast on both ABC1 and ABC2. In order to tune in to ABC2 you will need a digital set top box. More information on receiving digital tv can be found here.
triple j tv is also available via the internet as a vodcast and direct download. For more information on downloads visit the ABC video podcast help pages. You may also watch segments over the internet as streaming video here.

Economics in One Lesson
Publisher: Blackstone Audiobooks | ISBN: 0786199172 | PDF (218pages) | 2.3MB | MP3(128kbps) | 140MB |
In this presentation you'll hear excerpts from along with quotes from Hazlitt's other works and from the authors who influenced his thought. You'll also hear Hazlitt's account of the fallacies that for decades have corrupted economic insight and understanding. Economics in One Lesson is a clear and concise explanation of opportunity cost and price incentives. This book is extremely useful as a supplemental text. The reason why is that most modern economics textbooks pass over opportunity cost too quickly. The basic idea of opportunity cost is easy, but students need to see how the opportunity cost concept applies universally.
One way to learn opportunity cost is to read Cost and Choice, by JM Buchanan. Cost and Choice is a great little book, but it does not work well for an intro class. Bastiat wrote some classic essays on opportunity cost, but his work could be seen as a little dated. Of course, opportunity cost is itself timeless, but Bastiat aimed at explaining the general applicability of opportunity cost reasoning to a nineteenth century audience.
Economics in One Lesson is a modern restatement of Bastiat's essays. Hazlitt writes to counter mid twentieth century Keynesian fallacies. This is an important aim. All to many of us believe that disasters like 9-11 and Katrina created jobs. Too many of us fail to see that the labor and capital that goes into reconstruction has forgone alternative uses. Too many of us believe that capital itself causes unemployment by replacing labor. Labor saved by capital has alternative uses. Even some economists can benefit from reading this book (if they have an open mind) because too few of us see how government spending and credit expansion can displace and distort private sector spending. This is not to say that the free markets never have any slack or are perfect, but the Old Keynesian belief that activist fiscal and monetary policy can permanently increase real GDP is not well founded. Any New Keynesian will tell you that Hazlitt was right about the Old Keynesian economic program.

Second Nature
- Discussion (18)
When I was seventeen in 1959, the lake was as wild a place as I knew. My friend Jeremy Hooker and I would arrive there at around four a.m. in early summer, ditch our bikes in the tangle of rhododendrons, and pick out the narrow path by torchlight as we tiptoed, in existentialist duffel coats, through the brush. Still a long way from the water, we moved like burglars, since we attributed to the carp extraordinary sagacity and guile, along with an extreme aversion to human trespassers on its habitat. Crouched on our knees, speaking in whispers, we assembled our split-cane rods. In the windless dark, the lake's dim ebony sheen was at once sinister and promising. Somewhere out there, deep down, lay Leviathan, or at least his shy but powerful cyprinid cousin.

Success in the music industry is notoriously difficult. Whether it be the obstacle of not having the backing of a major label, or the lack of respect and support from superstar rappers and fans alike, the road to stardom is far from easy. Many people have fallen at the hands of these hardships. One man who has thrived in these conditions is Pittsburgh rapper Phresh LaRosa. Born, and raised in Pittsburgh, PA., Phresh learned about hustling, music and working hard at a young age. The rough surroundings of crime and gangs in Pittsburgh has molded Phresh into a strong individual, and gave him the necessary experience to share the struggles of what many people face. After his initial dream of college didn't materialize, he discovered his passion for hip-hop at an early age. With his eyes clearly set on his new goal, he began laying out the foundation for his success by performing shows throughout Pittsburgh and the northeastern & mid Atlantic region. Coming from the mid Atlantic, a region that has produced super stars producers, Mel-Man & Butter, and hip-hop artist J Sands, Wiz Khalifa, and S. Money to name a few, and famous for its unique lifestyle, Phresh embodies what many mid Atlantic rap fans love hip-hop, while at the same time displaying a versatility that makes him appealing to hip-hop fans across the world. His charisma, lyrics and strong stage presence, combined with his ability to craft stories about a wide array of subjects has earned the young rapper the respect of fans and caused the industry to take notice. His talent and drive caught the attention of Urban Law, and his partnership with the company, which has worked with underground notables like, Valor, Skyzoo, has produced a sizable buzz in the northeast region. Already in the work's Phresh LaRosa will be releasing new singles with established stars like Wiz Khalifa, Killer Mike,and Stat Quo, at this young stage of his career. LaRosa's talent is very clear. With the groundwork set, he is poised to make a lasting impression on the hip-hop industry. Phresh LaRosa's current underground fan base has expanded to the U.K. & Europe. LaRosa, whose fan base extends nationally and internationally, is poised to become a household name with a brand of his own. It is apparent that his underground following is getting strong and eager to hear more from the talented rapper.

I've seen some beauties such as Olaf, Leona and Garen... Shyv, Nasus, Brand... and the infamous jax, yi, wukong... but what are some other good comps?
Senior Member
Wukong, annie riven
I don't understand what's annoying about those comps, wtb explanation. But for real, Nidalee, Teemo, Shaco. Team Getaway can be impossible if your comp is weak in CC.
Well you should try the shyv nasus combo tbh.. (sorry gonna rave about nasus in all my future threads) But the Garen, leona, olaf is just a sick tanky teamcomp not really annoying just epic
Mid Is A Feeder
As said, nid, teemo, shaco... Boxes, mushrooms, irritating poke, long range ***** spears...
Olaf, Darius, Singed - One mistake against them loses you the game. If you don't end the game soon enough you still lose. Wukong, Amumu, Rumble - I went against this once and it was frustrating. You can beat them early, but but they will come back hard and one mistake and it's over. If they ace you at any point you might as well just surrender.

Free Falling Elevator and Floating
Name: Kevin B. Status: student Grade: 9-12 Location: CA Country: USA Date: Spring 2012
I had a debate with my uncle about what would happen to a person in a free falling elevator. I asked him if the person would float. My uncle said no. He pointed out that a ball would not float if put on the floor of the elevator and the cable was cut, so why would a person? To see what would happen to a ball in a free falling elevator, I put a ball on a folder (the folder representing the floor of an elevator), and I dropped the folder with the ball. The ball stayed on top of the folder as they both fell to the ground. This indicated that what my uncle said about a ball staying on the floor of a free falling elevator was likely correct. However, when I researched the subject on the Internet, I came across many articles that said that a person would float in a free falling elevator. So I am a bit confused. Why would a person float but a ball would not? So my question is: 1) Would a person stand on the floor of a free falling elevator or would he float above the floor in a free falling elevator? 2) If the person would stand on the floor of a free falling elevator, please explain why. If the person would float above the floor, please explain why.
Since everything falls at the same rate in the absence of other forces that could intervene, (such as friction from air) there would be no difference between a ball and a human being in a free-falling elevator. Now if you were unfortunate enough to be riding in such an elevator and you happened to have a ball with you, you could release it at waste height and it would not fall to the floor. That's because both you and the ball, and everything else in the elevator, are already falling under the full effect of gravity even though you appear to be stationary from your own point of view. For the same reason, if you stepped off a stool while falling in the elevator, you would not come back down towards the floor unless you were effected by another force, for as long as the elevator remained in free fall.
Jerry Gardner
This is an example of reality versus theory. If the elevator accelerates only due to gravity, and if the person does not exert a force on the elevator (e.g. does not jump), then the person will stay on the floor of the elevator. The elevator and the person accelerate with gravity (which means they accelerate at the same rate), and therefore, they fall together. When two touching objects accelerate at exactly the same rate, they stay touching -- thus a person on the floor stays on the floor. That is the theory. However, in reality, the elevator is likely not exactly 'free-falling'. Its acceleration is slightly slower than gravity because there is some friction with the walls, etc. In this case, the person (who is under the force of gravity), would feel a net force toward the elevator (and therefore stay connected to the floor). In either case, if the person were to jump (and if the elevator were truly in free-fall), then the person would appear to 'float' -- or (in the case of the real elevator) at least to fall very slowly compared to normal.
Hope this helps, Burr Zimmerman
Hi Kevin,
Your Uncle is correct for the scenario as depicted. Please consider these alterations in the scenario:
If the standing person in the elevator held the ball and released the ball during the free fall, then the both would remain where it was. The ball would appear as floating. The subject would still be standing on the floor. The ball and the person are falling as fast as its surroundings. Inertia holds them there.
If the person overcomes inertia with a push off the floor with their toes, they too would appear to float.
Space agencies use this principle to train personnel in weightlessness.
Please do not try this at home!
Peter E. Hughes, Ph.D. Milford, NH
First of all, I commend you for making an experiment to test this out. That is a very good thing to do. If the elevator were truly falling freely (the folder in your experiment was not), it and the ball or person inside it would both accelerate downward equally. So a ball or person on the elevator floor initially would stay on the elevator floor during the drop. However, they would not be pressed against the floor the way they are when the elevator is stationary (or, for that matter, moving at constant velocity). So, the ever-so-slightest push off the floor would make the occupant rise from the floor and not return. I suppose that is what you mean by floating. br>
Richard E. Barrans Jr., Ph.D., M.Ed. Department of Physics and Astronomy University of Wyoming
Kevin B., If the person just stands still, that person will move with the elevator. The person will stay in contact with the floor but will feel no pressure from the floor. If the person should very gently push (a common reflex action) on the elevator floor, then that person would slowly float to the top of the elevator. Gravity accelerates both you and the free-fall elevator together. If you and the elevator are moving together when the cables are cut, you and the elevator will continue to move together. Is something pushes a little up on you or down on the elevator, such as your feet against the floor, then you slow down a little and the elevator speeds up a little. You and the elevator are no longer moving together: the elevator is moving downward a little faster than you are. You and the elevator floor move apart.
Dr. Ken Mellendorf Physics Instructor Illinois Central College
For your experiment, consider the effect of air resistance.
For the elevator, assume it is "falling" in the vacuum of space (no air resistance). Now the person and the elevator fall at the same rate. There is nothing to make the person (or the ball) rise above the floor of the elevator since they started falling at the same rate and at the same time. However, there is nothing to hold the person (or the ball) to the floor of the elevator so a VERY small push off the floor would lift the person above the floor until the elevator stopped accelerating in free fall.
Greg Bradburn
There are two issues: "free falling" and "floating." Sometimes you can be arguing over an idea when the problem is the impreciseness of the words in your argument. What is "free falling"? Drop a feather and a rock at the same height. You might say both are "free falling," but clearly the rock will drop at a faster rate because the drag in the air will push back on the feather and slow it. A falling elevator will most likely also experience some drag—as it falls in a shaft, it will have to push air in the shaft away; any friction from bearings or cables will also serve as a drag. Such drag will still provide small forces that keep an object "stuck" to the floor, the same as the ball on your folder. So the first problem is in the definition of "free falling." Let us say we can eliminate all friction and drag forces from the falling elevator—we will call this "free falling." (to be more precise, we could talk about matching the elevator's acceleration to exactly that of earth, but we probably do not need to go so far at this point.) Now, will a ball, or a person, "float"? What do you mean by "float"? All objects "free fall" at the same rate—a ball or a person (or an elevator). Would you expect that an object would float away from the floor? Without any force on the object, there is no reason for an object an the elevator to move away from each other—they are both falling in lock step with each other. It is like two racing cars accelerating at the same rate: they stay neck and neck. Now, if there is a force—however small—that acts on the object (for example, a person pushing away from the floor), the object will move away and appear to "float." If you sneeze in a free-falling elevator, you might be surprised that your feet are no longer on the floor. Minus, any forces however, no reason exists for a person to move away from the floor.

Nick Lachey Reveals 98 Degrees Reunion Tour Rumor Is Not True [AUDIO]
If you haven't noticed, boy bands are back! The success of UK imports One Direction and The Wanted has led to speculation that a number of hot groups from the past will be reuniting including 90s sensations 98 Degrees.

Several outlets have reported that Nick Lachey and the boys will be embarking on a 15-city tour this summer, but apparently it's NOT true. Nick set the record straight on when he tweeted:
So psyched to see all the excitement for a 98 degree tour, but the only tour I'll be doing this summer is at baby's 'r us! #neversaynever

Mouse Guard Spins off Legends of the Guard
- Posted by Johanna on April 1, 2010 at 4:39 pm
- Category: Comic News
What do you do when your book is popular and there's demand for more but you can't fulfill it yourself? You ask your friends to help.
David Petersen has created two Mouse Guard series collections so far: Fall 1152 (released in 2007) and Winter 1152 (2009). While we patiently wait for the next volume, publisher Archaia Comics has announced Mouse Guard: Legends of the Guard, a spinoff anthology miniseries in which other artists tell stories of the warrior mice.
Legends of the Guard #1 cover | Page by David Petersen |
Issue #1 ($3.50 for 24 color pages, due out in May) will include stories by Jeremy Bastian (Cursed Pirate Girl), Alex Shiekman (Robotika), and Ted Naifeh (Courtney Crumrin). The connecting conceit is that Guard Mice at a tavern are telling tales to outdo one another. David Petersen will write and illustrate those bridging sequences.
Page by Alex Sheikman | Page by Ted Naifeh |
Gene Ha will contribute to issue #2, and Mark Smylie (Publisher of Archaia) has a story in #4. Meanwhile, David Petersen will contribute a new 11-page Mouse Guard story to Archaia's Free Comic Book Day issue, a flipbook with Fraggle Rock. Look for that at your favorite participating comic shop on May 1. The next Mouse Guard series is the six-issue Black Axe, launching in September. That's a flashback/preview tale, set before the time of the other books. Legends of the Guard can be pre-ordered now from your local comic store with the Previews code MAR10 0699.

A native of Wheeling, W. Va., who had never traveled outside the United States until his trip to Africa, Bickerton never dreamed he would battle malaria across the globe.
"This was one of those gifts that this office opens up, but that you can't predict," he says. "When Nothing But Nets came along, I had a world perspective that had been building since '86.
"Today there's a 3-year-old who's going to be bit by a tiny bug and, in 48 hours, she is going to die," says Bickerton. "She's the reason I do what I do. When she grows up, I pray, she will have been able to see the face of Jesus in the person who gave her that bed net.
"To make the world a healthy place for every child has everything to do with what Mr. Wesley intended us to do."
On stage at United Methodist Youth 2006 in Greensboro, N.C., Bickerton and soccer star Diego Gutierrez had just finished describing how a $10 bed net could protect an entire family from mosquito-borne malaria, which kills nearly a million African children under 5 every year.
Bickerton pulled out a $10 bill and said, "This $10 represents your lunch at McDonald's, or your snack at Domino's Pizza. Or it could represent a mosquito net that can save a life."
Just as he finished speaking, Bickerton felt something hit his shoe. One of the 6,000 youth had balled up a $10 bill and thrown it at him. Soon he and Gutierrez, who played for the Chicago Fire, were barraged by currency.
"A total of $15,000 came showering onto that stage," says Bickerton. "I told Diego that we should be glad they didn't have any change in their pockets."
Between Bickerton's passionate endorsement and the grassroots appeal of Nothing But Nets, support among United Methodists caught fire.
"Bishop Bickerton saw God open a door for millions of lives to be saved through the purchase and use of long-lasting insecticide treated nets, and he helped the United Methodist Church walk through that door," says Janice Huie, bishop of the Texas Annual Conference and a fellow champion for the campaign.
"He's a visionary who is fearless in stepping out into God's future. And he's also a superb communicator who can paint a picture with words. When Bishop Bickerton talks about nets, people literally throw money at him."
The success of Nothing But Nets provided momentum for the broader goal of the United Methodist Global Health Initiative.
That goal — the global eradication of diseases of poverty — was formally adopted last spring at the quadrennial General Conference in Ft. Worth, Texas, where Bickerton announced a $5 million grant from the United Nations Foundation. The grant, which included support from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, was announced April 25 — World Malaria Day — as seed money for programs to combat diseases of poverty in Africa.
The goal of the UN, which estimates it will cost $330 million to blanket Africa with insecticide-treated nets, is to raise that and the billion or more it will take to eradicate diseases of poverty.

Ten Wildest Spring Break Bars in Fort Lauderdale
Alex Markow
4. Capones
Walking into this bar is like walking onto the cast of Jersey Shore. And you know what that means? Loud and wild times. Though you're likely to lose your voice from shouting all night and the people who frequent this place aren't exactly mom-approved, the atmosphere is always energetic, and the drink specials are too good to pass up. Check it out on Fridays for three-for-one drinks. And by 2 a.m., you'll be shaking your ass with abandon or making out in a dark corner with someone whose name you don't quite remember.
Alex Markow
5. Vibe Las Olas
This fun lounge is for the spring breaker who loves to dance all night to great music. With no set dance floor, Vibe offers its patrons the opportunity to jam out all over the club to an eclectic mix of sounds. This is the perfect spot for those of you looking to get down with locals in a dark club where talking isn't a thing. And on special nights, you can enjoy live musical performances, celebrity guest appearances, themes, and many other events tailored to the clubgoer looking for a new experience.
Alex Markow
6. Blue Martini
Blue Martini is sort of like a restaurant inside of a bar inside of a dance club inside of a singles mixer.
It's a place that doesn't really fit into one single category. A true enigma, and yet always recommended for spring breakers. Why? For one, the martinis are delicious. Two, the live music is always by artists who are unique and actually talented. And three, you're guaranteed to leave with someone by the end of the night.
The atmosphere allows for actual conversation with people who are a tad classier than your typical spikey-haired douchebags who wear sunglasses to bars.
Alex Markow
7. Briny Irish Club
This is a local favorite. Sure, the place always smells like a dirty armpit and the floor is usually sticky for no apparent reason, but people still flock here on the weekends like they're giving away free beer. Not only are the drinks on the cheaper side, they play all the songs you like to sing along with, and the bartenders are always friendly.
On the "wild" scale, it's not exactly a strip club or Las Vegas, but when you cram a bunch of horny strangers into a bar the size of a small one-bedroom apartment, one-night stands are inevitable. This place is a must-see if you're an out-of-towner looking for a sexy local to brush up against.

"I believe in creating a life you love, that fills you up, so you can wake up every day excited! In the end, that's the only way to truly live."
Claudia Olivié
Though no two of us are walking the exact same path, few would argue that nurturing a good, healthy balance in our lives is critical to reaching our maximum potential. Really, who doesn't want to be their sparkling best? It's your destiny, by jeepers, to reach for the stars and grab fistfulls!
So why don't we?
Making all the working parts of our lives "fit" together, knowing which pieces to toss, to keep, pick up or look more closely at can be overwhelming to say the least.
Whether you're a "domestic engineer" (aka stay-at-home-parent) or a doctor, a teacher, foot model, tarot card reader, world class artist, professional button collector or the President, what everyone, everywhere really needs is balance. Physical, emotional and spiritual. It's what allows us to love our lives and chase our dreams – while juggling all of the balls, gracefully, in the process.
Claudia Olivié, founder of Heart Rhythms Living, LLC, is a board certified Holistic Health and Wellness Consultant. She offers pragmatic suggestions and effective insights into how anyone can take the reigns of their life and steer it into a more fulfilling and balanced place. One where personal health, happiness and professional goals needn't be at odds with one another.
I had the privilege of interviewing Claudia recently, and learned more about her work at Heart Rhythms Living, approaches to wellness, her personal victory of quelling the symptoms of an autoimmune condition and more. Claudia offers up inspiration, honesty and best of all: some practical advice for anyone ready to take their life to the next level.
What is Heart Rhythms Living about?
It's really about helping people to nourish and love their lives. I take a holistic approach to health, meaning I look at how all areas of your life are connected, including food, exercise, lifestyle, stress management, relationships and more.
I studied animal behavior and cognition, and was actually getting ready to start a PhD in elephant cognition when I realized that what I really wanted to do was help people live fuller, healthier lives. I also spent a couple years as a veterinary technician, and considered going into holistic veterinary medicine. While that was very intellectually stimulating, it didn't feed my soul in the same way.
"I ended up reversing all of my symptoms, and am healthier and happier now than I ever was before. That's what I want to share with others."
What really brought me to this path though, was my own struggle with my health. In my early 20s I became very ill and was eventually diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. Once I realized this wasn't something my doctors could fix, I started to look at how I could best support my body to heal itself. Through my own journey, I realized the huge impact food and lifestyle had on my well-being. I ended up reversing all of my symptoms, and am healthier and happier now than I ever was before. That's what I want to share with others.
Getting to work with people who have made the decision to improve their lives, and experiencing that transformation with them. I also love that I can set my own schedule. It's very liberating!
I find so many people are just confused and overwhelmed by all the conflicting information out there. The truth of the matter is, we are all different, so no one thing is going to work for everyone. That's why there is so much conflicting information. I work with my clients to find what works best for them, for their body, their environment, their lifestyle, their needs.
"…people are…confused and overwhelmed by all of the conflicting information… The truth…is, we are all different, so no one thing is going to work for everyone."
So many people are just going through life, trying to survive through this day, and just dreaming of a time in the future when they can really enjoy themselves. I don't believe in that. I believe in creating a life you love, that fills you up, so you can wake up every day excited! In the end, that's the only way to truly live. By thriving in our own lives, we also inspire those around us to see another possibility. Just imagine the ripple effect of that throughout society!
Eat real food. Focusing on real food (and avoiding processed foods) is one of the biggest changes people can make for their health.
Find a mindfulness practice that works for you. It could be as simple as focusing on your breath or taking regular silent walks in nature, or it could be a structured meditation practice.
Experiment, play and try things on. If something appeals to you, try it out. If it works, keep it. If it doesn't, don't. Make it fun and allow yourself not to do things you don't enjoy.
"Whenever possible, notice and examine your thoughts. Question them. Keep those that serve you and dump the rest."
Our minds. We are so powerful, and yet we let our thoughts rule our lives. We allow the negative chatter to keep us from living our lives to the fullest. Whenever possible, notice and examine your thoughts. Question them. Keep those that serve you and dump the rest.
Set aside some time each day for yourself. Do something you enjoy, something that feeds you. It could be as simple as a bath or sitting with a cup of tea and reading a book. Ideally, schedule this first thing in the morning. You'll notice when you start your day feeding yourself, you have more to give.
What has been your most life changing decision to date? What impact has it had on your current work at Heart Rhythms Living?
The decision to take my health into my own hands. I am healthier and happier now than I ever was before, and I know that's because of the decision I made to take my life and my health into my own hands. Every day I imagine what the world will be like when everyone takes charge of their lives and their health. It's a beautiful vision, and I cherish my role in that.
My juicer: or at least some way to juice (blenders and nut milk bags do well in a pinch too!)
The internet: While I'm a huge advocate of unplugging regularly, I also love the wealth of information and inspiration available online!
Sunshine: being outside, feeling the warmth of the sun, and just experiencing the gorgeousness of nature – nothing can beat that!
My maternal grandfather. He died several years before I was born, and from what I've heard about him, I think we would have a wonderful time together. Among many of his interesting adventures in life, he also healed himself from tuberculosis through food.
Who is your hero(ine)?
Anyone following their dreams and making it happen.
I'm a science geek at heart. I love understanding the biology, chemistry, physics and psychology behind anything and everything! In elementary school I asked my parents for a microscope, a chemistry set and a telescope, all in the space of a year or two.
Favourite food?
This varies with the seasons… right now probably Spirulina Salads loaded with every vegetable I can find!
What makes you the most zen and genki*?
Zen: mornings, mindfulness practices, being outside, yoga, candles, a warm bath with all the trimmings, soft clothes, spreading smiles, taking time for myself, lakes, beaches, mountains, rivers, clean countertops, white space
Genki: my work, learning, sharing with others, laughing, muay thai, rebounding, exercise in any form really(!), TED talks, making something with my hands, dirt, skirts and dresses, bright colors

If Last Night's Speech Confused You, Don't Worry. The President Probably Wasn't Talking to You.
Last night, Barack Obama gave the speech he has been dreading since he took the Oath of Office, the one he put off as long as he possibly could. He had to stand in front of his progressive left-wing base and tell them that he was actually going to keep one campaign promise they had probably expected, given his track record, he was going to break. Sure, he's giving our soldiers a mission that's so poorly-defined that it practially guarantees failure and he told the Islamist butchers how long they have to hide out and rebuild, but let's not underestimate the amount of courage it took for the President to tell his anti-military constituency that they won't be getting their Afghanistan withdraway pony for Christmas (via memeorandum). He should get some praise from those of us on the right for that.
We should also praise the President for being the first Democratic Commander-in-Chief in my lifetime to deploy a sizeable number of troops to defend our national interests. Also, let's give him credit for slamming the progressive cant that America is a rapacious imperialist pillager of weaker nations. Saying those things, bucking the most cherished beliefs of his most faithful supporters (and the folks who are worth a lot of campaign cash!) was probably the most difficult thing he's done since he took the Oath of Office.
So it's no wonder the speech was horribly stilted and confused, and make no mistake, it was terrible. Last night marked the first time in history that our President has ordered troops into war with explicit orders not to defeat the enemy (indeed, the words "win" or "victory' didn't show up anywhere). He had to resort to some apparent dishonestly to explain why his delay wasn't really dithering. His entire strategy, and the only part of the speech that was aimed at most of us, could be summed up as "I'm going to send in 30,000 troops who will slow down the Taliban for 18 months, after which the Afghan government will hopefully be able to handle them".
But all of that is explainable once you understand that you most likely weren't the target audience. If you're not wearing an SEIU purple t-shirt, or ACORN boxers, or have a faded "Selected, not Elected" bumper sticker on your car, then you weren't meant to understand most of the speech anyhow. Why else would the President actually spend a third of his speech recounting history that most of us already know? Who but an anti-war zealot would insist on a firm withdrawal date from a war, victory or no? Where else but the progressive base would he need to make explicit that we'll be limiting ourselves to hunting down the folks who hit us on 9/11 instead of defeating all the Islamist butchers?
I imagine a lot of people are going to criticize this speech over the next week or so for its paucity of real strategy and its halfheartedness, and I suppose it deserves some criticism. But I think the President did what he needed to do. He hitched up his belt, looked the left-wing right int he eyes, and told them that he was going to actually use the military to kill a couple Islamists. No, he didn't use the word "terrorists" and no, he's not really going to kill many of them, but in this case something is a lot better than nothing. Perhaps now that he's faced his biggest fear, he'll be less afraid to act as Commander-in-Chief more often.

Healthy Debate: Should You Choose Organic?
by Dana Angelo White in Food News, January 3, 2013
This topic just won't seem to go away. Is it worth the extra cost to buy organic or does healthy conventionally grown food trump pesticide-free? It's really not a black and white issue. To get to the bottom of things, you have to look closely at different types of food.
Defining Organic
An organic food is grown without the use of any chemicals, herbicides and pesticides. Such toxins are potentially detrimental to the nervous system and may also play a role in the development of cancer, hormone dysfunction and damage to tissues like the skin, lungs and eyes. It's well understood that one serving of conventionally produced food won't cause harm. The big question is whether or not long-term consumption is problematic.
Way back when, foods were simply organic or they weren't. As more organic products have become available, the issue became more complex. To keep up with the variations, the USDA has designated specific nomenclature for organic foods. For example, a food labeled "100 percent organic" contains all organic ingredients; the "organic" designation means that all agricultural ingredients must be organic. Foods with 70 percent organic ingredients can only state that they're "made with organic ingredients." For the complete breakdown of organic labeling definitions, visit the USDA Organic Certification web page.
Produce and Grains
The organic story began with basic produce and grains and expanded to just about every other food you can think of. The good news about produce is that it's pretty much a yes or no issue, it's organic or it's not. But . . . that's not the whole story.
Organic or not, produce and grains like wheat and rice are packed with all kinds of vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants, plus not all conventional agriculture is teeming with toxins.
The potential toxin load in agricultural foods can vary significantly depending on the type of food and where it's grown. Here's where the Environmental Working Group's Dirty Dozen list comes in very handy. Using frequently updated USDA data, the EWG can point consumers to produce items that carry more chemical residue – then consumers can make educated decisions on how they want to spend their money.
Organic flours and rice typically have an affordable price point but when used as ingredients in other foods, the price tends to go up, (more on that below). For this reason, your organic dollar is typically better spent on the single grain products.
For fruit and veggies, there's also local products to consider. Many local farmers' can't afford to become a USDA certified organic operation but adhere to very responsible growing practices. Shopping at a farm stand or farmers' market is a win-win situation – you can support a local farm and get safe and affordable produce at the same time.
Eggs, Dairy & Meats
For eggs, milk, cheese and meat to be organic, the animals that produce them must be fed an organic diet. Foods like yogurt would also be subject to having other organic ingredients like fruit and sugar. The organic bonus here would be that the use of hormones, antibiotics and other chemicals are prohibited. But it's becoming and more and more common for conventional producers of these foods to avoid the use of hormones and other controversial additives.
It's also worth reminding consumers that organic is not the same as grass fed so the organic label doesn't indicate exactly what type of feed the animals receive.
Prepared Foods
Here's the thing – an organic cookie is still a cookie! Many people incorrectly assume that organic is synonymous with healthy and it's certainly not. Prepared organic foods like cookies, snacks and canned and frozen meals often have few organic ingredients, but come loaded with sodium and added sugars. In this case, the organic price tag is probably not be worth it.
Bottom Line: It shouldn't be all or nothing when it comes to organic foods. Fruits, vegetables, grains, leans meats and dairy are plentiful with nutrients whether they're organic or not. Do your homework and designate part of your grocery budget to certain organic foods.
Tell Us: Where do you spend your organic dollar?

StripMyRights.exe [/D] [/DW] [/L N|C|U] {exefile} [arguments]
The program is made for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and newer.
If you are using a Windows computer logged on as an administrator, you are taking a risk. Especially if running Web browsers like Internet Explorer or email clients like Outlook. To lower the risk, it would be nice to be able to start Internet Explorer, Outlook and other potential risk-exposing applications in an ordinary user context. With Windows 2000 you had to use the RunAs command, which is cumbersome. With Windows XP Microsoft introduced the API calls SaferCreateLevel and SaferComputeTokenFromLevel, which allows one to create a token with reduced rights to be used when starting new processes. Michael Howard, Microsoft Security Engineering, released a utility, DropMyRights to take advantage of this new feature.
So StripMyRights is based on the idea of DropMyRights, but adds a few new features: The ability to pass command line arguments, the ability to be started from the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options registry key and the abillity to be run as a replacement of the original program.
As the DropMyRights utility, one can choose to start new processes with one of three trust levels:
BTW: The recommended way of operating a Windows computer is to log on as an ordinary user, and then use the RunAs and log on as an administrator when running programs needing more access rights.
The program StripMyRights.exe should be copied to the Windows System32 folder, normally C:\Windows\System32.
Another approach is to copy StripMyRights.exe to another program folder and make sure this folder is in the PATH of the computer.
In this mode you have to manually modify the shortcuts of the insecure applications, like for instance the Internet Explorer.
Valid command line:
StripMyRights.exe [/L N|C|U] {exefile} [arguments]
Exefile is the full path to an executable to run. Must be enclosed in "" if the
path contains spaces.
Arguments is any arguments to pass to the executable.
Important: /D and /DW must not be used in this operating mode!
To launch Internet Explorer as a Normal user, use this command line (the full path to iexplore.exe must be modified according to your system):
StripMyRights.exe /L N "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
This mode has a couple of disadvantages: You must change all relevant shortcuts and maybe also some registry keys used to launch the insecure application, and for applications installed by Windows Installer packages, the path to the executable is not modifiable in the shortcut. The path is hidden somewhere in the registry. An important disadvantage is that if you run a URL, for instance http://www.sysint.no, from the Run menu item in the Start menu, Internet Explorer will be started with full trust access rights, if not already running.
When Windows is told to start a program, it checks for the precense of the program name as a subkey of the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options registry key.
For Internet Explorer the executable file is iexplore.exe, and the registry key should be named: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe.
If this key exists and a value named Debugger is defined in that registry key, the program configured there is run as a debugger for the application.
The Debugger value should be of type REG_SZ and should contain this command line: "StripMyRights.exe /D /L N"
Full example, in the form of a Regedit export:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe] "Debugger"="StripMyRights.exe /D /L N"
This mode has the advantage that it is simple to install, since there are only two steps:
Another advantage is that it affects all users on the computer, and the only way to run the configured programs with full access rights is to copy the program to another name.
A disadvantage in this mode is that some functionality in Windows, like the ability the open a URL from the Run menu choice in the Start menu, will cause an error message if there is no Internet Explorer running already (if, of course, Internet Explorer has been set up ro run with lesser trust). A retry will solve the problem since the program was started by the first try.
To allow the original application to return return-values to the calling application, for instance when running batch-files, use /DW in the Debugger value instead of /D.
Valid command line:
StripMyRights.exe {/D | /DW} [/L N|C|U]
Either /D or /DW must be used in this operating mode. Windows will itself add the executable filename and any arguments, so please don't add them to the command line.
In this mode the original program file should be renamed to executable-name.orig, for instance iexplore.exe.orig. The StripMyRights.exe must then be copied to the original executable name, for instance iexplore.exe, in the same folder as the original program file.
When launched in this mode, the copied StripMyRights.exe gets it's running program name, for instance iexplore.exe, and then checks for the presence of a file named program-name.orig, for instance iexplore.exe.orig. If this program exists, it runs that program with the same arguments as StripMyRights was called with.
In this mode it is impossible to specify the wanted trust level for the application, and it will be run as a Normal user (defaults to /L N).
The advantage with this mode is that it affects all users on the computer, and it is also possible to run the application with full trust access rights from the command line by running the executable-name.orig file.
The disadvantage is that the file renaming will confuse upgrades or repairs, which probably will replace the renamed StripMyRights.exe with the original program.
Another disadvantage is that some functionality in Windows, like the ability the open a URL from the Run menu choice in the Start menu, will cause an error message if there is no Internet Explorer running already (if, of course, Internet Explorer has been set up ro run with lesser trust). A retry will solve the problem since the program was started by the first try.
The program is delivered AS-IS, that is without any form of guarantee. You may freely use the program for any legal purpose, and you may freely distribute it as long as this file is distributed with the program file.
Incorrect use of this program may make it impossible to log on to the computer. All use of this program is at the risk of the user. Systemintegrasjon AS does not accept any liability for any damage the program might cause.
If you do not accept these terms, you must delete the program, StripMyRights.exe, at once!

There are so many evil adoptive mothers among the Disney villains (stealing is a bad form of adoption but it is villains we are talking about).
I just can't help but think that all if these adoptive parents just chilled out and behaved like people, most of the shenanigans could be avoided.
When now held it's 30th contest and themed it "Villains gone Good"
I felt I had to enter with at least one of these rubbish parents not being rubbish.
Maybe the Evil Queen was nice to Snow when she was little and didn't feel like a threat to the Queen's vanity. But I'd like to think that I depictured a different universe where the Queen's heart soften by the child's laughter and would always be a good mother to Snow. Yes I am such a marshmallow.

Go Mobile: http://mobile.fosters.com Clippers strike early, then fend off Saints
Saturday, October 19, 2013
DOVER — Two early goals and a hot goalie added up to a winning recipe for the Portsmouth High School boys soccer team.
Portsmouth is assured a first-round home match on Oct. 31. With three winnable games to complete the season, the Clippers now shoot to make the top four and the potential for two home games. Portsmouth went up 1-0 12 minutes in when Valinski carried the ball down the left wing and fired a hard, but stoppable shot at STA goalie Brock Crowley. The ball got by Crowley for the lead. "We'll take it, lucky goal," Paterson said. "On frame. We know from last game (2-0 win) just put it on net and good things happen — against any team." A trip inside the box led to the second goal and co-captain Troost, a defender, stepped up and took the shot, burying it calming to the right as Crowley leaned the other way.
"I was just thinking you've got to stay composed," Troost said. "You can't let anything get to you. Don't look at the goalie and slot it home."
Later in the half he had a mini-breakaway down the right side of the 18 but his shot went wide left. |

About Me:
The Creator of BestFondue.com
How "Best Fondue" Came to Be
Hi! My name is Caroline Bégin and this page will tell you a little more about me.
I am the writer and webmaster for BestFondue.com and I am also the creator, writer and Webmaster for RelaxationAtHome.com and PerfectRomanticIdeas.com.
Fondue has always been my favorite meal.
Mind you, as a kid, the only version I was ever exposed to was broth-based beef fondue. Anyone who knows me is aware that they have to double the required quantity of beef if I'm coming over to have fondue.
Mmmmm.... Fondue...
To this day, beef fondue is still my favorite type of fondue. I'll admit that caramel fondue comes a close second but it doesn't really count as a meal.
I have gathered several fondue recipes on this site as well as a few tips to make your fondue night a pleasant event. Feel free to visit my Fondue Store to get the fondue mixes or equipment you may be missing for your next fondue night.
Have Fun and Enjoy Fondue Tonight!
In case you want to know who I really am, I am a full-time Web designer and developer. It wasn't the case a few years ago. I had long commutes, worked long hours with great colleagues as well as some colleagues I couldn't stand... You know how things are... but I digress...
But now, thanks to Site Build It! (SBI), I can now work from home. My Google Adsense checks and Amazon affiliate checks are slowly but surely making their way into my bank account. SBI! is NOT a get-rich-quick scheme. I started my first Website in October 2006 and this fondue Website was created in October 2007 because I truly am passionate about this subject.
It takes a lot of work to put together a website and it takes time to create pages but SBI!'s got your back with plenty of tools and you don't even have to write code!
P.S. If you're interested in learning more about building your own Website, you can call SBI! and they'll answer any questions you may have. You can also watch this video that explains it all. It's worth your time!
I use and truly love SBI! I recommend it because it works. Yes, I earn a commission if you click on one of the SBI! links shown on this site (and decide to use it too). The way I see it, it's a nice bonus for telling you the truth and helping you change your life by building a successful online business. I wouldn't recommend it if I didn't successfully use it myself.

Bankers Life Fieldhouse, Indianapolis, IN
Top Performers
Atl: J. Smith 20 Pts, 3 Reb, 4 Ast, 4 Stl, 2 Blk
Ind: R. Hibbert 17 Pts, 13 Reb, 1 Ast, 1 Stl, 3 Blk
The Indiana Pacers did fine initially without David West, but the power forward's absence may be starting to catch up to them.
It's hard to say, though, how missing West will affect Monday night's matchup with an Atlanta Hawks team seeking a third straight road victory.
Indiana (43-27) won its first three games without the power forward before falling 87-84 at Chicago on Saturday. West, second on the Pacers with 17.3 points per game, will miss his fifth straight contest Monday due to a sprained lower back.
"Definitely so when David's in, he's somebody we go to late in the games and that's something that we'll always miss, win or lose, but still, we've been playing well in David's absence," leading scorer Paul George said.
Tyler Hansbrough is replacing West in the starting lineup. Hansbrough averaged 18.0 points and 12.3 rebounds in the first three games of this stretch before the Bulls limited him to seven and six.
Oddly enough, West averaged 24.5 points in two defeats to Atlanta (39-31) this season while he only scored 15 in a 114-103 victory Feb. 5.
The home team has won all three meetings, but the Hawks are in a confident mood after opening a four-game trip with Sunday's 104-99 victory over Milwaukee. Atlanta closed on a 9-1 run for its fifth win in seven games.
"Playing on the road, you have to bring a certain mentality and I thought we did that tonight," coach Larry Drew said. "We did enough to come out with a win."
Al Horford's string of six straight double-doubles ended, but the big man was still outstanding with 24 points, seven rebounds and six assists. Josh Smith had 23 points.
"It shows a lot of toughness from our team," Horford said. "It is important, obviously. They are in the hunt, like we are. We want to position ourselves in the best scenario that we can. We've done the job."
Horford is averaging 17.0 points on 66.7 percent shooting in the season series against Indiana. He fouled out in the lone defeat and totaled three fouls in the victories.
Hawks guard Devin Harris went to the locker room midway through the fourth quarter Sunday with an injured left foot and did not return. Drew said Atlanta would evaluate Harris, who has missed two of three meetings with the Pacers, on Monday.
The coach also indicated that he will go back to DeShawn Stevenson, who sat out Sunday. Stevenson is not being used in back-to-back situations and Drew preferred to use him against the Pacers' bigger perimeter players.
Stevenson can expect to see some action against George, who had 23 points and 11 rebounds on Saturday but made 1 of 6 3-pointers.
"It just wasn't my night," said George, who is shooting 25.0 percent on 3s over his last six games. "I couldn't really get into a rhythm outside the 3-point line."
The Pacers continue to lead the NBA in defensive field-goal percentage at 41.4, but the Hawks have connected at 47.6 percent in the season series.
