Yeah, but that's kind of like saying the Pistons were able to win with Darvin Ham. Half-Price's performance was shoddy at best and not worth a Nazr Two: Electric Boogaloo.
Your trade scenario swaps Tay for Kirilenko...and ditches Nazr to boot. How do you propose to replace a center? Going into this season, I think we're already short a big body.
You're right...that is the question. Flip hardly played Nazr after Webber got here. If Webber doesn't return, Flip has no choice but to either play him or over-extend Sheed & Dice.
and bouncing Nazr isn't going to leave us any shorter. We should have been asking that question before signing Half-Price
Pin that on JoeD. Wasn't Nazr signed within days after Ben bolted Flip? You didn't really answer the question...how do you propose to replace a center?
I am not sure that we need a "true center". We won two a title in 2003-04 without a legitimate center. As good as Big Ben was he is only about 6'9". With the zone now legally permitted there are a number of ways to compensate for not having weight down low. The fact is that quickness, and foot and hand movement are a lot more important than weight when it comes to defense. What is also important is lower body strength and balance and more weight does not necessarily equate to having those characteristics. I think our defense will be just fine. You can't play much of a post up game against a good zone defense or a good zone press, which I imagine we will see lots of both this year. Defense begins with the guards. AA and Hot Rod are a major upgrade to our perimeter defense and will get enough minutes to make a difference in that area. Maybe someone, not I, can volunteer to keep us abreast of points in the paint against us this year and do some comparisons. I am sure it will be favorable with some recent prior year numbers.
A lot depends on how committed the players are to play D. Neither Flip nor defensive schemes can make them good defensively if that's not what they want to do.
I think you do need size for defensive purposes. The East does have some frontcourt players that can do a lot of damage in the playoffs if you can't match up. Dwight Howard was inexperieced last year, its going to be harder to stop him. NJ is getting Krystic back, Boston has KG now. Shaq is still dangerous if you can't match up with him. We are not the Suns and never will be with our core. Besides, its kind of amusing how so many think they are the new model to follow when they have never made it out of the 2nd round with this. Looks like the Pistons are banking a lot on Sheed to stop these guys. Have to hope he can stay out of foul trouble. How tall is Amir, do we know yet?
That question requires the assumption that Nazr is a center that is worth replacing. Addition by subtraction, my friend.
He is taller than Big Ben and I believe also has a noticeably longer reach, though he is not as heavy nor as strong as Big Ben was when he was with us. Overall defensive skill level of course is not close if you compare AJ now, with Big Ben in his prime. However, I don't remember how good a defender Big Ben was when we obtained him, though I am sure his defense then was definitely better than his offense.
Its hard to say with AJ. We will have to see how he does next season. I am not trying to compare anyone to Wallace. That contract for what he gave the Bulls last season would have killed us. They can afford it for now but they will have to lose some players over it. Time to move on but what are we going to do to matchup with the few atheletic bigs out there? We will see.
Forget this nonsense with Kirilenko...he who is of erratic talent and lacks the core stability (short of war) of a home base to upright the ship. This is a historic pattern of typical Eastern European culture in the grand Tolstoy scope. Tay, (I am testing the temperature of the water here) might have learned something this summer. His future course (as we have seen his progress toward a neutral commitment) is diminishing returns. What Kirilenko lacks, Tay has. To turn Tay on his head (a conversion, so-to-speak), would be to have him comprehend Tolstoy's grand short novella: The Death of Ivan Ilych. Yea, I know...I'm reaching here.
Here's an answer: You don't Nazr is/was worthless and doesn't require this team to waste more money or roster space bringing in a retread if they already conceded that they didn't need one of the best defensive big men in the game. There's no need to replace a big man because you aren't actually losing a big man by getting rid of Half-Price. That's like trying to reason with who you get to replace Tremaine Fowlkes or Super Dupe.
Unless Joe trades him, I think that Nazr will get more minutes than you expect. I'm worried that Flip's strategy of playing Sheed at center and starting McDyess will lead to injuries. Unless Maxiell has learned to shoot free throws, I can't see Flip relying on him to fill in for the old guys... which leaves Nazr. He's not Ben Wallace, but he does play Center better than Tremaine Fowlkes or Ronald Dupree.

It was an action-packed couple of days for Team Titleist last week at Doral, where many Titleist Brand Ambassadors and golf ball loyalists took time out of their busy schedules to film tips for the "Tips from the Tour" segments that appear regularly on Golf Channel.Much of the filming took place on holes No. 3 and No. 6 at Doral's Red Course, which lies adjacent to the infamous TPC Blue Monster, host of last week's WGC-Cadillac Championship.Fun fact: Filming at Doral always has to be quick and efficient, due to the noisy and never-ending plane traffic that flies over Doral into Miami International Airport (as seen in the above video.)"And today I'm going to teach you how to hit a golf ball over a plane," joked Pro V1x loyalist Bubba Watson, as an airliner interrupted one of his takes.Also participating in last week's shoot: Titleist Brand Ambassadors Steve Stricker, Rory McIlroy, Adam Scott, Geoff Ogilvy, Ben Crane, Ross Fisher, Robert Karlsson, Bill Haas and Tim Clark; Pro V1x loyalists Lee Westwood, Ian Poulter and Padraig Harrington; and Pro V1 loyalists Luke Donald and Jonathan Byrd.Look out for all the great tips from those players this season on Golf Channel's "Golf Central presented by Titleist."You can check out pictures from the shoot by clicking the image below.

Last week we posted the first set of Titleist Brand Ambassador Nick Watney's answers to questions from Team Titleist, which were filmed last Wednesday at Doral before Nick's victory at the WGC-Cadillac Championship.
Check out Nick's answers to three more of those questions in the videos below. Topics include: Nick's AP2 irons, off-week routines and some memorable advice.
Thanks (and congrats) again, Nick!
• • •
Stanislas asks...Greetings from Paris, France! Seeing the quality of your ballstriking, I was wondering why you didn't opt to play the MB or CB irons, which might give you a more precise and penetrating ball flight than the AP2 (although they're fantastic irons too!)? Thanks and looking forward to your next win!
J.D. asks...What is the best advice anyone has ever given you about the game of golf?
Aaron L. asks...What do you do during the off weeks to practice?
Note: Nick answered the first part of Aaron L.'s question ("I was wondering what your pre-tournament warm up is?") in Part 1.

Titleist Brand Ambassador Nick Watney kept one of the PGA Tour's most underrated streaks going Sunday at the WGC-Cadillac Championship, reminding golf fans around the world that consistency ultimately pays off.Watney, 29, made a surgical 72nd-hole birdie on the TPC Blue Monster's treacherous par-4 18th, rolling in his Pro V1x golf ball from 15 feet to punctuate a two-shot victory and keep him and his caddie out of the barbershop for at least another week.Using a bag full of Titleist equipment – including a new Titleist 910 driver and fairway metal – Watney shot a final-round 5-under 67 to finish at 16-under 272 and earn the third victory of his PGA Tour career over a field that included all of the top 50 players in the world.It also marked Watney's fourth-consecutive top-6 stroke-play finish (and fifth-consecutive top 10 finish overall) to start the 2011 season, keeping alive a friendly wager between player and looper."(My caddie) was going to go get a haircut in San Diego – it's really silly, but I just said, why don't we not get hair cuts until we finish out of the top-10," Watney explained to the media in his post-victory press conference. "And it's been five tournaments now, over a couple of months. I'm not sure how it's getting so much attention but his hair is looking a little bit nesty."
At Doral, it was mainly Watney's growing confidence that was on display.He made two par-saving putts from 18- and 25-feet over his final five holes Sunday before closing things out with three perfect swings, highlighting a run of success that hasn't seen him finish worse than T-36 since last July.Standing on the 18th tee with a one-shot lead, Watney pulled his 910D3 10.5º driver from the bag and drilled his tee shot down the middle of the fairway. He hit his AP2 8-iron over the right corner of the lake to 8 feet, then dropped in the game-winner using his Scotty Cameron Tour Prototype 350g putter.(Nick gave Team Titleist a complete tour of his Titleist golf bag last week at Doral. Look for that video to be posted soon here on the Tour Blog.)"The golf tournament wasn't over, and I wanted to give myself a putt," said Watney, who moved to No. 2 in the FedEx Cup standings.
"I putted the best I've ever putted under pressure today, and I just wanted to give myself a putt, and it worked out."Titleist golf ball players have now won 10 out of the first 12 events of the 2011 PGA Tour season, including Pro V1x loyalist Michael Bradley's victory at the Puerto Rico Open on Sunday, and 22 total events worldwide.Watney was one of 37 players at the WGC-Cadillac Championship that trusted a Titleist golf ball, more than three times the nearest competitor with 12 and more than all competitors combined. Titleist also was first in Iron Sets (18); Sand, Lob and Approach Wedges (51); and Putters (19).Of the 14 players who finished among the top 10 and ties, 10 relied upon Titleist golf balls for their success, including Anders Hansen (Pro V1x/T-3), Luke Donald (Pro V1x/T-6), Rickie Fowler (Pro V1x, T-6), Hunter Mahan (Pro V1x, 9th), Jonathan Byrd (Pro V1, T-10), Padraig Harrington (Pro V1x, T-10), Rory McIlroy (Pro V1x, T-10) and Martin Laird (Pro V1x, T-10).For the week, Watney finished among the Top 14 in five different statistical categories, including: Birdies (1st/22); Putts Per Greens in Regulation (2nd/1.571), Greens in Regulation (T-12/68.1 percent), Driving Accuracy (T-12/58.9%) and Driving Distance (14th/297.6 yards). He is currently No. 1 on the PGA Tour in Scoring Average (68.85), No. 2 in Birdie Average (4.88) and No. 2 in Scrambling (70.79 percent).Perhaps his most impressive statistic? His final round scoring average: 66.25, which also ranks No. 1 on Tour.
Here's a closer look at Nick's Titleist equipment:Ball: Titleist Pro V1xDriver: 910D3 10.5º, A•1 SFT setting (Mitsubishi Rayon Diamana White 83)Fairway: 910Fd 15.0º, A•1 SFT setting (Mitsubishi Rayon Diamana Blue 93)Hybrid: 910H 21.0º, A•1 SFT setting (Aldila VooDoo VS9)*Irons (3-9): AP2 (True Temper Dynamic Gold)Wedges (54º, TVD60º): Vokey Design Spin Milled (True Temper Dynamic Gold)Putter: Scotty Cameron Tour Prototype 350g
*Nick added a Titleist AP2 3-iron to his bag this week temporarily in place of his New 910F 19.0 fairway metal. There are a few holes at Doral that call for lower, more penetrating 220-plus-yard shots, which Nick feels more comfortable hitting with the 3-iron.
PGA TOUR: Pro V1x loyalist Michael Bradley captured the Puerto Rico Open for the second time in three years, winning in a sudden-death playoff with Titleist Brand Ambassador Troy Matteson.
Bradley closed with his fourth straight 4-under 68 to match Matteson (who closed in even-par 72) at 16-under 272, then parred the par-5 18th in the playoff for his fourth-career PGA Tour victory. "I really feel like, you know, the people in Puerto Rico have really opened their arms and hearts to me and have been very supportive of me," said Bradley. "And you can just tell. That means a lot. Not only is this a win for me, but hopefully it's a win for them, too." Eight of the top 10 finishers on the leaderboard at The Puerto Rico Open relied upon Titleist golf balls for their success, including Titleist Brand Ambassadors Hunter Haas (Pro V1x, T-3) and Bobby Gates (Pro V1x, 6th).Titleist was the overwhelming golf ball of choice at the event with 85 players, more than four times the nearest competitor with 18 and more than all competitors combined. Titleist also was first in Iron Sets (34); Sand, Lob and Approach Wedges (115); and Putters (50).
• • •CHAMPIONS TOUR: Titleist was the overwhelming golf ball of choice at the Toshiba Classic with 49 players, more than three times the nearest competitor with 13. Titleist also was first in Iron Sets (19).

It was great catching up with Titleist Brand Ambassador Nick Watney earlier this week in Miami, where most of the world's best have gathered to take on the Blue Monster at Doral.
Nick, who is attempting to record his sixth consecutive top-6 finish in PGA Tour stroke-play events, kindly sat down with us on Wednesday to answer questions submitted from Team Titleist.
Check out Nick's answers to four of those questions in the videos below. We'll post more of Nick's answers, as well as a tour of his Titleist golf bag, soon here on the Titleist blog.
Aaron L. asks...I was wondering what your pre-tournament warm up is?
Matthew T. asks...What does your daily fitness regime consist of? And how carefully do you watch what you eat?
Matthew D. asks...How did you manage your golf as a young teenager to become so skillful at the sport? I find myself easily distracted during a practice session mainly because I lack drills. Are their any particular favorite range or putting drills you enjoy but find useful?
Bill O. asks...What improvements did you notice most about changing to the new Titleist 910D3 driver?

Irene Preston's Historical Writing
In 1070 Cheshire was held by Gherbod a great Flemish noble but he
returned to the continent within the year as he thought the area was too
wild and troublesome, but rumour had it that when he arrived in France
he was abducted and held prisoner for many years.
Hugh de Avranches 1st Earl In 1071 the first official earl of Chester was Hugh de Avranches the
nephew of William the Conqueror and son of the Viscount de Avranches.
Hugh inherited much land from his father throughout Western Normandy as
well as much in England. He became an important councillor of his uncle
and contributed 60 ships for the invasion. He did not fight at Hasting
but stayed behind to govern Normandy. As Earl of Chester he fought
savagely with the Welsh and eventually ruled North Wales and Cheshire.
He became very fat and could hardly walk and was known as 'Hugh the Fat"
also 'Hugh Lupus' the wolf. His household was full of rowdy thugs but he
could be generous and had a pious side. He held land in 20 counties and
founded St. Werburgh's Abbey in 1092, and became a monk. He died in 1101
and was buried wearing his habit in the Abbey.
Richard de Avranches 2nd Earl
The second earl was Hugh's son Richard who was only 7 at his father's
death. He became the earl in 1114, aged 20. Richard was on a military
campaign with the King of Scotland in Wales. He later joined Prince
William, heir to Henry I, on a trip to Normandy. Richard spent most of
his time in Normandy. On the return journey in 1121 the ship, called the
Blanche Nef meaning the white ship, sank with only one survivor. This
tragic loss of the heir to England was the cause of the civil war
between Empress Maud, sometimes called Matilda, and Stephen of Blois the
named heir.
RanuIf I de Meschine 3rd Earl
The 3rd earl was Richard's cousin Ranulf and nephew of Hugh Lupus. He
is known as Ranulf I de Meschine Viscount of Bayeux and held the
Earldom of Carlisle through his wife Lucy who was descended from the
great Anglo-Saxon Earl of Mercia, Leofric and Lady Godifu, known as
Godiva. Ranulf had to surrender his other earldoms and lands to the
His earldom only lasted 8 years he died in 1129.
Ranulf II de Meschine 4th Earl
Ranulf's son, known as Ranulph II the 4th earl, was the most ruthless of
all the earls of Chester. He was not like his father and became the most
important lord in England. He wanted power to recover the Earldom of
Carlisle and his father's lands which he could not achieve until after
the death of King Henry I in 1135.
Ranulf had married the daughter of Robert Earl of Gloucester who was the
illegitimate son of the late king. With lands from this marriage he
could control one third of England, almost half from Cheshire to Lincoln
and the east coast. The castle at Lincoln was in royal hands and he had
not broken from the king. He did seize the castle for a year and went to
the side of Matilda with his own army including Welshmen. There was much
brutality in Lincoln but Ranulph II was arrested, later set free and
turned again to violence until King Stephen restored his castle and
lands. He controlled from Chester across to Lincoln and down to Coventry
and instead of receiving Carlisle he received land between the Rivers
Mersey and the Ribble.
In spite of his immense power he was still prepared to sell his sword to
the highest bidder. Matilda's son Henry Plantagenet landed in England in
1153 and Ranulf turned against Stephen on the promise of lands including
those of William Peveral of the Peak. William poisoned Ranulf in 1153
and he died within the year.
Hugh II de Kevelioc 5th Earl
The 5th earl was Ranulf's son Hugh II de Kevelioc who was born in Wales.
His father's northern lands were given to King David of Scotland, known
as the Earldom of Huntingdon.
Scotland had been divided into two and ruled by David and his brother
William. William died in 1124 without issue so David succeeded to the
whole of Scotland. He had received a Norman education and Anglo-Saxon
culture influenced him. He granted lands to Anglo-Saxon friends and
later to Anglo-Normans. David became Earl of Nottingham and Huntingdon
through marriage to Maud the daughter of Hugh de Kevelioc. Their son
John was to become the 7th and last Earl of Chester.
Hugh II held lands in England and Normandy, where he spent most of his
time overseeing his lordships of Avranches and Bayeux. In 1169 he
married Beatrice de Montford daughter of Simon III de Montford and
cousin to Henry II who gave her away in marriage. Her father later
became the leader in the baronial revolt against Henry II in 1173/4.
Hughe's son
Ranulf III de Blunderville later became the 6th earl.
His daughters made good marriages with important
leaders of the 12th century.
Maud married David of Scotland, 8th Earl of Huntingdon
Mabel married William de Aubigny, 3rd Earl of Arundel
Agnes married William de Ferrers, 4th Earl of Derby
Hawise, Countess of Lincoln, married Robert II de Quincy
Another daughter married a Welsh prince and an illegitimate daughter
Amice married Ralph de Mainwaring.
Hugh II was aware of the problems between Henry and Thomas Becket in
1170. Hugh died in 1181 at Leek in Staffordshire and was buried in St.
Werburgh Abbey.
Ranulf III de Blunderville 6th Earl Hughe's son Ranulf
III became the 6th earl and held the earldom for 51 years and was
probably the last of the great. He also held Lincoln and Huntingdon.
Cheshire was one of the most important lordships in England. He expanded
his power by peaceful negotiation. In 1189, when he was 17, he married
Constance, Countess of Brittany and widow of Geoffrey, son of Henry II.
The marriage gave Ranulf the Earldom of Richmond and Duchy of Brittany.
The marriage was not a success they separated and it was dissolved in
1199. He married again in Normandy and lived in France from 1199-1204.
He was powerful enough to become regent for the young Henry III who was
aged 9 when his father King John died, but he left it to William
Marshall the Premiere Earl.
Ranulf III made a strong alliance with Llewelyn, Prince of Wales, in
1218 before he left for the Holy Land. On his return he began to build
Beeston Castle in 1220. He died without issue and no brothers so the
earldom went to his nephew John le Scot. Ranulph will be remembered as a
man of affairs, a statesman, a crusader and stalwart soldier. He was
commander-in-chief of an unsuccessful campaign in France in 1231 and
died a year later aged 60. He was buried in the Chapter House at
John le Scot 7th Earl
John le Scot, Earl of Huntingdon, and nephew to the King of Scotland and
nephew to Ranulf III became the 7th and last Earl of Chester.
Scottish Kings and Lords often held lands in England and were made earls
of various counties.
John le Scot's father David was knighted in 1170 by Henry II and later
created the Earl of Huntingdon in 1184. David died in 1219 and his son
John inherited the title. His mother was Maude, eldest sister and
co-heir of Ranulf III de Blunderville the Earl of Chester who built
Beeston Castle.
Ranulf died in 1232 and John inherited the title of Earl of Chester by
the right of his mother. He had married Helen, the daughter of Llewellen
Prince of Wales, in 1226. John died of poison in 1237 and it was said
his wife had been responsible. There was no issue from the union and
Henry III decided that the earldom was too important to divide between
John's sisters so it was annexed to the crown. The king gave John's
sisters other lands in exchange and later created his son and heir
Edward as Earl of Chester and later Prince of Wales, the future Edward
In Norman French (Latin) we have venator/venitor meaning hunter. Gross
meant great more than big so gross venitor meant a great hunter.
The words have become joined as Grosvenor the name of a distinctive
family since 12th century, keepers of the King's Forest in Cheshire
There is Grosvenor Street and museum in Chester and its founder was
called Hugh Lupus Grosvenor.
Another familiar name from 11th century is Gilbert Venables, Baron of
Kinderton, on the banks of the River Weaver, known as the hunter,
venitor. He was a relation of the Counts of Blois.
When Henry III annexed the earldom of Chester to the Crown in 1237 he
also gave the earls hunting lodge in Macclesfield Forest, known as
Addlington, to his natural son. His son took the name of Corona and the
lodge eventually passed to a second son of the Venables of Kinderton
through marriage and he took his mother's name of Legh.

Snaptic Sponsors Moving Android Contest
If you know a thing or two about Android, and a free trip to the next TED conference is your kind of thing, then the app developers at Snaptic may have just the contest that you've been looking for.
The competition in question, Snaptic's "Move Your Apps" developer challenge, calls on Android developers to create new applications that move users to move. Co-sponsored by the non-profit HopeLab — which works to improve the quality of life for young people with chronic illness — the challenge will reward coders who come up with unique ways of promoting activity via Android apps.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

In a surprising finding, given the insane amount of media negativity towards AT&T, the Yankee Group reports that 73% of iPhone users are "very satisfied with AT&T's service", a higher number than any smartphone group feels about their various wireless carriers.
Despite the fact that the tethering feature was MIA for a good year despite being offered on other worldwide carriers, people suffered (and still are suffering) through periods where it was easier to drop a call then make one, and the fact that "iPhone owners pay AT&T nearly $12 a month more for service than the average smartphone user", people still seem to love their service.
According to Carl Howe of the Yankee Group, "Consumers transfer the high gloss of their Apple iPhone experience to AT&T. The iPhone creates a halo effect that rubs off."
AT&T obviously doesn't believe in "reality distortion fields", and instead says that "There's a gap between what people hear about us and what their experience is with us. We think that gap is beginning to close. It doesn't mean we're perfect; we still have work to do. But that's no surprise to us, because we have a great network."
Whatever the reason is, it'll be interesting to see how many people abandon AT&T when/if the iPhone moves to multiple networks. "Drake Johnstone, an analyst with Davenport & Co., forecasted that poor experiences with AT&T would drive as many as 40% of iPhone customers to Verizon once that network gets the iPhone." After this finding, I'm not so sure.

I enjoyed the FC: Instincts games when I was younger but they just do not come close to the sheer fun of Far Cry 3. I've played it through a couple of times now and I still love every minute of it. I just hope they can somehow replicate this excellence with what ever the next Far Cry game will be.
Personally I think the next Far Cry should be a continuation of Far Cry 3. Jason has become a withdrawn and traumatized hermit and can no longer connect with his old life and friends because of what he has experienced. He is eventually captured by Hoyt's "powerful friends" who want revenge against him but he breaks free and must explore this new island chain to find a way to escape. However, Jason is haunted by Vaas who has manifested himself as Jason's raging insanity and begins to hinder him, threatening to take him over completely. Jason must defeat his dark, deranged side to free himself of Vaas and escape not just the islands but his own troubled past.


text: Porter's 1979 season is the fourth-best ever by a catcher according to WAR. But it's also the most out of context season ever – it's 3.9 points higher than his second-best season. That's the biggest gap between a best season and second-best season by any catcher. Others with big gaps are Chris Hoiles, Tim McCarver, and Darren Daulton.

Today will be the last quiet and spring-like day for quite some time. Rain, snow and wind are all on the way as the Pacific Northwest transition back to a very active weather pattern. Temperatures will start off cool Monday morning, but afternoon highs will warm up nicely for the afternoon. High temperatures will run 3-5 degrees warmer than Sunday with plenty of sunshine across all areas.
The first round of rain will move into the Coast around midnight, traveling inland around the morning commute. This will lead to widespread rain into Tuesday afternoon for much of the region. Snow levels will start off above 5,000′ on Tuesday and drop to near 4,000′ Tuesday night. This will allow for snow to fall along the Cascade passes. Highway 140 and Highway 66 are areas we'll have to watch for snow into Wednesday. The widespread rain/snow on Tuesday will wind down some Tuesday night before picking back up again into Wednesday.
Also, Siskiyou Summit could potentially have accumulating snow Tuesday night and Wednesday morning. During times of heavier precipitation, snow levels could drop to 3,500.' Increasing winds Monday night will lead to breezy conditions Tuesday in those areas that typically deal with stronger winds as well.
The wave on Wednesday will help to raise snow levels some but precipitation will continue falling throughout much of the day. Several more storms are expected follow for the end of the week and the weekend. The timing of these storms is likely to change from one computer run to the next so updates will come from day to day.

Why we have Memorial Day
Pause, at least for a few moments, on Monday and remember to thank and say a prayer for those, military and civilians, who gave their lives, so we can have Freedom. And a thought and a prayer for those out there today protecting us, wouldn't hurt either. Oddly, it wasn't the Stars and Strips […]

Also, I like dandelions
This is pretty amazing: the City of Albany has been spraying a chemical so toxic that it's banned from use in parks.

I'm Lost
I was glued to my television Sunday night watching the series finale of Lost. I dedicated 6 years to this show, and left feeling somewhat empty.

Basic clock
Add a basic clock with a few extra features to your desktop.
Extra Clock is a basic clock utility with a few extra features. It doesn't do much, but the features it offers do function well.
All of the program's options are accessed with a slide-out menu in the System Tray. The appearance of the clock can be customized to some extent; users can choose between analog and digital (or both), and can optionally have the clock show the date. The clock itself is very basic, with the bare minimum of what it takes to constitute a clock: in the case of the analog clock, a circle with numbers and hands. Users can select custom colors for the clock, as well as adjust the opacity, but that's about it. The program has no Help file, but there's not much a user could conceivably need help with, either. For users looking for a no-frills option, this is it; users who like custom skins will want to keep looking. In addition to telling the time, the clock offers an alarm function, which users can set for either a specific time or for a certain number of minutes in the future. The alarm comes with seven different sounds, or users can select a file from their computer to use instead. We highly recommend that users preview the sounds before setting the alarm, as the default is ear-piercing and will probably wake your neighbors.
Extra Clock is free. It installs without issues but leaves a file behind upon removal. We recommend this program to all users looking for a basic clock for their desktop.

Sleek, mod black-and-white dresses. And retro, quirky novelty tees. A sweet, figure-skimming peplum top. And rugged, ripped denim. This spring, women's wardrobes will be a study in contrasts. But if there's one item that'll carry you through, it's this: the sharp tailored jacket. "That's the punctuation point of the season," says Bloomingdale's fashion director Stephanie Solomon.

After the fourth call today regarding book selling and trying to explain what "very good" condition means, I thought I'd post this link to the Independent Online Booksellers Association.
I don't take old textbooks (including that highlighted anthro/sociology/economics book you had to have for that one class).
I do take classic works of literature, science fiction, and great kid's books.
I don't accept ex-library books or books in poor/ reading condition.
I do take books that have the former owner's name written inside.
I don't take books chewed on by your dog (or pig, yes, that happened).
I do take books that have been gently read, with maybe a crease or two.
I don't take hardback books that are missing their dust jackets.
I do take signed, first editions of the Wizard of Oz or Little House on the Prairie (a girl has to dream, right?).
I don't take romance novels.
I hope this is helpful and keep the good books coming!

well, it's 99% done and thank you to the 20 people who have checked it out so far (over 5 combined hours) and given me some feedback =)
Hax Nuit has been live on Kitely for a week now and apart from blabbing here, it's also been mentioned in Google+ with pics by Gaga (thanks) =)
it takes a certain kind of person to like this kind of thing – solving mazes and basically walking around an entire sim both above and below ground. it's been fun to build and fulfills a long time daydream and thanks to how Kitely's service plans work, it's basically been free for me to do. i would never have been able to do this on our dedicated server. Kitely's affordability AND very strong performance are hard to beat
on our own server, building this would have used as many resources as our two plus year Enclave Harbour project. since Kitely treats each world (whether one region or 16) as its own instance, it's like having a server for each thing (one for Enclave Harbour, one for the freebie store, and now one for Hax Nuit). but that's not really doing justice to what Ilan and Oren have put together – it's like having three servers that can do 100,000 prims and 100 concurrent users each!
that's just nuts
and something that still has not sunk in, although seeing how well the over 36,000 prims perform for Hax Nuit is kind of getting me there (i'm surprised at how stuck i still am in the SL paradigm of $295 for 15k prims! for $35 we get 20 regions to use any way we want – it could be 20 individual regions with 100K prims each! i guess even my thinking is stubborn and slow to embrace new things!) =p
back to Hax Nuit, as i think of new treasure items, i'll add them in and update the list on the tablet in the helicopter (building 5). i'll probably make a dedicated web page with the back story (as written the other day) and the latest maps (underground and mazes) – that way only one link needs to be accessed, if so desired
i guess i could move on from Imprudence 1.3.2 (talking about me being slow to adapt) and actually place that resource page in Hax Nuit (can you buy an item that has MoaP on it and walk around with it? like maybe as a forearm mounted LCD screen that displays a web page? hmm, that might be hard to look at on your avatar's wiggling arm and click buttons eh?)
