Rain, a train and the space engineer
Author: Lauren
Getting up this morning for our 10am checkout was a serious struggle as we were both still so exhausted. We were heading to Warsaw today to catch a flight to Istanbul (as our Schengen visa period expires the following day) so with hourly trains available we'd previously planned to walk into town to check out some of Krakow' …

Rendered in copper and glass and designed by Finnish architect Rainer Mahlamäki, it's cavernous hall evokes imaginings of the parting of the sea with the soaring fluid walls and the light coming from hidden skylights above.

AAMOK, Deutsches Weihnachts-Potpourri, 1973Posted: December 21, 2014 Filed under: 70´s, Cartoon Sleeves, Germany 1 Comment
Aamok was basically producer Conny Plank´s own Novelty/Krautrock-project. Plank himself even did the drawing of an evil Santa, complete with bloody knife, gun and what looks like a corpse hanging from his bag. But Aaamok was also a short-lived Krautrock label, operated by Conny Plank and Wilken F. Müller, that never really took off. This promotional Holiday record was one of the few items that were published, that actually carried the name Aamok.
The proto-punk Christmas song Deutsches Weihnachts-Potpourri (German Christmas medley) sounds like it could have been released by Mad magazine….

Just noticed that the last post was my 700th post since I started this blog in 2007. To celebrate all these wasted years, here´s another flexible Birthday 78rpm postcard record, published by the London based Melody Cards company. These postcard records offer perfect copyright-friendly blog material: anonymous artists, no copyright noted, 50 plus years old and of course never reissued.
Plus, underneath the crackles and pops, a pretty silly song.
No washboard though….

HEART OF BLUES, Smoking takes you faster to God, 1969Posted: September 9, 2013 Filed under: 60s, Beat Records, Cartoon Sleeves, Germany, Promotional Records 4 Comments
Found this last Thursday in a local thrift store for one euro and, because of the nondescript sleeve, thought it was just another advertisement record. At home, the two songs really blew me away! Two great beat/krautrock songs on this one! A quick check on the Internet revealed that Smoking takes you faster to God has been reissued in the late 90s on the "Kraut! Demons! Kraut! – German Psychedelic Underground 1968-1974″ CD bootleg comp, compiled by none other than the late Werner Voran aka The Lolly Pope. Apparently this is quite a rare Krautrock 45 that somebody is currently trying to sell on Ebay for 100 euros. Hopefully to no avail.
Unlike most musicians who played in 1960s beat groups, former Heart of Blues bassist Norbert Maislein-Sylvester, cares for his musical legacy, and loaded Smoking takes you faster to God, including some info about the band, up on Youtube, himself. He even illustrated the video with the Kraut! Demons! Kraut! bootleg CD image, instead of the original sleeve that you see above. Heart of Blues, a popular R&B Band who played around the Munich area, were: Graf Amadeus von Donnersmarck, guitar; Norbert Maislein-Sylvester bass; Henny Stadler, vocals; Peter Stadler, keyboard and Rudi Zöttel, drums. Some former members still play in Munich bands today.
No info, however, on Munich Express found on the Internet. Their Nebellungenlied is a well done combination of funny lyrics in the 3 Travellers vein, set to beat music.
This is a perfect record for Berlin Beatet Bestes: it´s a beat record, it´s got a cartoon sleeve and it´s an advertisement record, containing music with a practical purpose. Ironically, while Krautrock is considered to be underground music, these songs were actually commissioned by the German government. In 1969 Heart of Blues and Munich Express won a contest, launched by minister of family affairs Käte Strobel, for "Best Anti-Smoking Song"
Well, thanks German government, for cutting these two wonderful sides for eternity!
I think I´m going to light one up right now, to get a little faster to god…
HEART OF BLUES, Smoking takes you faster to God, 1969
MUNICH EXPRESS, Das Nebellungenlied, 1969
A bit of trivia:
As you can see on the labels, this 45 was pressed at Schallplattenfabrik Pallas out of Diepholz, Lower Saxony, a family-owned company that has produced records since 1948. On the 1st of April 2013, a mass fire destroyed their CD-manufacturing building, causing an estimated damage of 10 million euros. The factory building where Pallas is pressing vinyl, a business they had bravely held onto all through the worst part of the 90s until now, was miraculously left intact.

MÜNCHNER SONGGRUPPE, Dürer-Lied/ Lied vom Bayernland, 1971Posted: September 7, 2013 Filed under: 70´s, Cartoon Sleeves, Germany, Political Records Leave a comment
It´s hard to believe today, that Germany´s "Bible Belt", way down in the south, used to be a hotbed of communist activity, dating back to the Bavarian Soviet Republic of 1918/1919. In the late 1960s, a group of communist musicians, the Münchner Songgruppe, were still rallying for the revolution.
Dürer-Lied deals with the public celebration of the 500th anniversary of the birth of Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528). Sung in Franconian dialect, it claims that, in contrast to the official appraisal by the Bavarian upper class and conservative political elite, "Dürer´s warm painter´s heart was close to the peasants." It points out, that the capitalists do not own Dürer and that "Not before that mob is gone, will we, the workers – the peasants of today – finally "own" Dürer. Everything for the workers – Nothing for the corporations. You don´t own shit!
"…und Euch gehört ein Dreck!"
Recorded live in Nürnberg in 1971.
MÜNCHNER SONGGRUPPE, Dürer-Lied, 1971
Lied vom Bayernland is a bold criticism of the ownership structure in Bavaria. The catchy chorus links the notorious head of the Bavarian governement Franz Josef Strauß and his "gang" to the Neo-Nazis, calling them "Bavaria´s worst plague".
"Strauß und seine Bazis/ und die Neo-Nazis, / die sind Bayern größe Plag."
Recorded live at the Arbeiterlieder-Festival in Essen in 1970.
MÜNCHNER SONGGRUPPE, Lied vom Bayernland, 1971
The leftist Pläne label was most probably the oldest German independent label. Founded in 1961, their records were initially sold independently through grass roots distribution. In the 1980s it changed distribution to Rough Trade, still mostly focusing on political singer-songwriter material, but also releasing a heap of extraordinary rock, jazz, and even some punk/new wave records. Almost unnoticed by the German entertainment industry, Pläne went out of business, after 50 years, in 2011.
BRIGITTE MIRA, Die alte Clofrau, 1963Posted: May 2, 2013 Filed under: 60s, Adult, Berlin Records, Cartoon Sleeves, Comedy, Jazz Records, Private Pressings, Promotional Records 9 Comments
Most people will probably only shrug their shoulders when they hear these songs, but to me this record seems almost unreal. It´s like this record was made for Berlin Beatet Bestes and on so many levels!
1. It is an advertisement record,
2. It was privately pressed for a Berlin car dealer
3. It´s got a cartoon sleeve
4. The two risqué songs are sung by local Berlin star Brigitte Mira, an actress who frequently worked with Fassbinder
5. The music is in sort of a Dixieland Jazz style
6. Of course it´s also never been reissued.
What more can I ask for?
In a way these two risqué songs, backed by Heinrich Riethmüller, predate Brigitte Mira´s bold later work. For some unknown reason the Berlin car dealer Bunde had the idea to advertize for his business with some naughty songs. Some sleeves even had "Der kesse Gruss vom Autohaus Bunde" ( Naughty greetings from Autohaus Bunde) stamped on the front. You can see this stamp on a copy that some greedy person is trying to sell on Ebay for the ridiculous amount of 35 Euros. Of course nobody will ever buy it. Listen to the songs and you´ll see why. Last week I paid less than 50 cents in a thrift store and I think that´s much more appropriate. Most likely it was the name that got the seller to put a higher price tag on this record.
Brigitte Mira (1910-2005) was most famous for the work she did with Rainer Werner Fassbinder. It was Fassbinder´s genius to cast people like Brigitte Mira for his art films. She had been a popular German actress since the 1940s, but was mostly known for her comedies. Mira´s personal courage made her steer off the beaten path and towards serious, more challenging roles, like in Ali:Fear Eats The Soul (1974).
By the early 70s Fassbinder regularly worked for German television. "Wie ein Vogel auf dem Draht" was a TV-show directed by Fassbinder for Brigitte Mira. German television never got more campy than this:
Despite her adventurous career, in the eyes of the majority of the German public, Brigitte Mira remained "the archetypal funny old Berlinerin with a heart." (The Guardian). But in the 70s Brigitte Mira basically had two careers, appearing in cutting-edge art films and also starring in funny popular films and on television (most prominently in the series Drei Damen vom Grill).
Finally: the music.
Die alte Clofrau translates to "The Old Toilet Lady". In the song she tells the story of her life as a bathroom attendant. A blues song about how she flushes the toilet for the very last time…
BRIGITTE MIRA, Die alte Clofrau, 1963
Triebwagen is railcar, but Trieb also means sex drive. Mit dem Triebwagen nach Italien translates to "Travelling to Italy by railcar". The lyrics deal with the cliché that Italian men are sexually potent. So horny female German tourists travel to Italy in search of sexual adventures…
BRIGITTE MIRA, Mit dem Triebwagen nach Italien, 1963
The artwork of this record is not signed. I have a vague suspicion who could have done it but so far I can not put a name to it.
DIE DREI FROHEN SÄNGER, Opelklublied, 1960Posted: April 25, 2013 Filed under: 60s, Cartoon Sleeves, Promotional Records 8 Comments
The reason I bought this record is the small illustration in the upper part of the sleeve. Yea, that miniature drawing you didn´t even notice when you just scrolled down…
I like the loose brush work of the anonymous artist. I think it´s pretty cool cartoon-style drawing, especially for a simple advertisement record. Unfortunately the designers didn´t know that the drawing would make the sleeve really stand out and scaled it waaaaay too much. Only to make room for an over-sized clef in the center. Such stupid design "decisions" are still the norm today in graphic design. An intricate two dimensional drawing that takes some effort and hand craft to produce, is reduced in favor of a boring one dimensional sign. A meaningless sign that takes up all the space, so that the delicate brush work of the artist is reduced to blurry lines. I´ll try to rectify that "mistake" after 53 years by showing a magnified version of the drawing for the first time:
The record is celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Opel 72 Wagen Klub.
TRIO SORRENTO, Wumba-Tumba Schokoladeneisverkäufer vom andern Stern, 1958Posted: March 2, 2013 Filed under: 50s, Cartoon Sleeves, Rock´n´Roll Records 1 Comment
Bill Ramsey´s German cover version Wumba-Tumba Schokoladeneisverkäufer vom andern Stern of Sheb Wooley´s Purple People Eater reached #4 in the German Charts in 1958. On Thursday I found a budget version of that song, released by the Opera label out of Stuttgart, in a nearby thrift store. I had seen a copy of the record on Ebay before, but since I don´t buy stuff on the Internet, I had to wait until I came across it by coincidence. On Ebay it probably wouldn´t have been 50 Cents either.
No info about Trio Sorrento on the Internet but contrary to many budget artist they were a real group, who´s music however did also appear on cheapo labels like Opera, Neckermann and Baccarola. An article in Spiegel from January 1954 about East German restrictions on "decadent" western musical styles, like the Boogie Woogie, also mentions the trio:
On October 6th 1953 four stocky soviet directors ejected Trio Sorrento (formerly with Berlin radio station Rias) from a cultural center in East Berlin, because the group´s musical repertory ("Junge,Junge, Junge", "Mäcki-Boogie", "Schaschlik-Boogie") had caused the attending young workers to applaud demonstratively. (Spiegel, Jan.1954, "Barrieren um Boogie Woogie")
This version of Wumba-Tumba Schokoladeneisverkäufer vom andern Stern was made to sound almost identical to Ramsey´s version. It´s still quite different, but since I won´t post Bill Ramsey´s version, just take my word for it…
TRIO SORRENTO, Wumba-Tumba Schokoladeneisverkäufer vom andern Stern, 1958
Jody Reynolds song of teenage tragedy Endless Sleep reached #5 in the Billboard Charts in 1958. Reynolds follow-up Fire of Love from the same year, only went to #66, but achieved cult status 25 years later when The Gun Club covered it.
The original German version of Endless Sleep was recorded by the James Brothers (Schlager singers Peter Kraus and Jörg Maria Berg), who were put together to emulate the Everly Brothers. In true budget manner the Opera label producers simply called their brothers the Johnson Brothers.
JOHNSON -BROTHERS MIT ORCHESTER, Die jungen Jahre, 1958
The two-colored illustration on the back of the sleeve should have been on the front. The drawing is what´s remarkable about this record. Why is the illustration on the back then? I can only imagine how the story must have been, but from my experience as an illustrator, it´s always the same thing. Regular Opera releases only had writing on the back. Because they had two rock´n´roll songs on the record, the record label people must have had the feeling that they should give the teenagers a little more to look at. They liked the commissioned drawing, but still decided against putting it on the cover, because they couldn´t depart from their concept that all their sleeves in this series needed to have the bland purple design!

Seed Offer for WSers and counters
Hi guys, I usually do a SASBE offer on the Seed Exchange forum every winter since starting winter-sowing in 2008. Being something of a seed addict (and I'm sure there aren't any of those on this forum, haha), there are always extra seeds to share. This winter I have extra seeds, but limited time and I will be traveling the week after next, so I decided to post this offer on the WS forum for winter-sowers and containers counters!
Please post to this thread, and then send me an email. After the first 10 responses, the offer will be closed, but it could be opened again when I get back from trip, if there are more seeds and time later.
Below is a link to my exchange page which has SASBE/BEAP instructions. Happy sowing everybody!
Here is a link that might be useful: Terrene's exchange page
Hi guys, have replied to all emails so far. For those who have not done so, please send an email with a list of the seeds you are interested in when you have decided what you want, and make sure your email address is displayed in the email. I try to update the exchange list if something is "OUT".
This offer is still open to 5 more winter-sowers and container counters!!
Cheers, Terrene
Got 2 more emails this morning, so this offer is still open to ONE more participant. I might have more seeds later after I get back from visiting elderly parents next week.
Jensyen will get you the address later today, this is just a quick email cuz I gotta run now.
Happy Spring everybody!
(Ha, that is a joke, it's WINTER outside where I live, half foot of new snow yesterday and freezing!)
Thanks Kelly, I ended up getting 7 SASBEs, and ladyrose recently email that she was interested in some seeds. I can do 5 more people now if anybody else is interested in seeds, please post here and send me an email.
In particular there are still plenty of seeds of the following milkweeds, and it's probably not too late to have some sprout, especially the tropical which grows well as an annual in most zones -
Tropical milkweed - Asclepias curassavica
Swamp milkweed - Asclepias incarnata
Common milkweed - Asclepias syriaca
Also plenty of annuals for butterflies and hummingbirds.
Thx, again, for the seeds! The salvia coccinea I got from you...is it a shorter 2 ft, or is a it taller version? Also, did it play nicely with other plants, or did it crowd them out? I am working on a plan on where to place each thing. Thanks! I am excited about them and the other seeds. :):)
This post was edited by carolinaflowerlover on Wed, Apr 10, 13 at 11:46
Hi Carolina, the Salvia coccinea is on the shorter side, about 2-2.5 feet here. However, I grow mine in a zone that has fairly short summers, and usually in partial sun, because I don't have much full sun. So it's likely they will get a little bigger and more floriferous when started earlier in the season, and grown in full sun.
I think they make a very good companion for interplanting amongst other perennials or annuals, not aggressive and the spires of tubular flowers intermix well with other flowers.
Pgh and Caryl, I got your emails and replied but haven't heard back yet. Let me know if you still want seeds.

Monument Dedication on October 8, 2012
The monument was erected at the edge of the new bridge near the river to honor those individuals who lost their lives from the horrible fire, and to the many veterans who have served the community. Many people sought refuge in the river and were saved from the great forest fire of October 8, 1871 which destroyed the city of Peshtigo and much of the surrounding area. The ceremony was hosted by the Peshtigo Historical Society with various speakers and Peshtigo High School music department.
Located on the Peshtigo River, the surrounding natural beauty and excellence in outdoor recreation of all kinds makes the Peshtigo area a popular travel destination. Known for superb fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, bicycling, and much more, Peshtigo is easy to get to by following Hwy. 41, taking exit 212 or 216.
The Peshtigo Chamber of Commerce welcomes you to continue browsing our Website, and to learn everything you can about our wonderful community.
The name "Peshtigo" is a Native American word from the Chippewa and Menominee tribes that lived in the area. Depending on who you talk to, it might mean "snapping turtle" or "wild goose."
Reborn from the ashes of America's deadliest fire, the city of Peshtigo is proud of its unique name and heritage.

We asked professional singer and musician Patricia Shih:
I feel that singing is a talent you're either born with or not. If a child doesn't seem to have that naturally, how worth it are voice lessons?
"Singing is like laughing; all people are born with the ability to do it. Of course some people are born with a more beautiful "instrument" than others, and maybe a "natural" ability to hear and match pitch; but singing should be a pleasure, especially for children. We've all heard horror stories of an adult telling a child to just "mouth the words" and not to sing, thereby crushing the joy of singing, perhaps forever. What a terrible shame, and how devastating to a child!
As a parent and a professional singer, I would say encourage your child to sing no matter how "off key" she or he may be. Singing "on key" is a matter of ear training -- and so yes, if your child loves to sing, by all means give voice lessons. Remember, the joy of music is what we need to foster, not necessarily training to be an opera singer. The love of music -- and the freedom, encouragement, and confidence to make one's own -- is a precious life-long gift parents can give to their child."

Compromise Deal May Speed Immigration Bill Through Senate
By editor
The chances of an immigration overhaul bill getting through the Senate greatly improved on Thursday. A deal was reached on a border security plan. Steve Inskeep talks about the deal with two of the senators in the so-called "Gang of Eight," who are working on a bipartisan approach to immigration, Arizona Republican Jeff Flake and Illinois Democrat Richard Durbin.

"Antigone acomplished"
This is a deeply beautiful rendition of the play!! That acting is superb, the pace perfect and even the music is quite interesting!
"Worst reader ever"
It is a wonderful, disturbing story. I would not recommend this version because the reader preforms his task so poorly. I have listened to dozens of recorded books. This was the worst performance I have heard.
The End of the Affair, of course.
I was astounded at how badly the book was read. The reader's attempts at accents were...I don't know what to say...a little like a stew made by a drunken house-painter. Beyond that, the reader betrayed no understanding of timing, inflection, or the intent of the author. He almost manages to ruin the story itself...but not quite.
"Greatest Sci-fi novel. Amature performance."
Oh my god, the actors were so bad that the producer could not decide to use them or not. They really broke the performance badly. Thankfully, he resisted the temptation for 90% of the novel which was read by a competent reader.
I read Dune when I was 17. I remember the sadness of finishing a book I did not want to have end. I felt that sadness again.
Avoid using actors. Even good actors just ruin the flow of reading.
Had the story been less than completely predictable with tired characters trotted out for the millionth time, this book would have been stunning!!
He reads English like a champ.
It is, for the most-part, grammatically correct.

This book captures the true sense of coal mining and the dangers these men faced on a daily basis. Well written and keeps your interest all the way through the book.Was this review helpful?

QEMU: a Multihost, Multitarget Emulator
QEMU may lack the graphical configuration and VM setup tools of commercial programs like VMware, but I have found it to be an excellent solution to the I-need-to-run-just-one-Windows-application problem. Judging from the comments I've read on the QEMU forum and on the #qemu channel on the Freenode IRC network, QEMU is well suited to solving many other problems. Give it a try, I think you'll like it.

qvm86 is officially (?) obsolete
From qvm86's project site on Savannah a post from the admin:
qvm86 is obsolete
posted by pbrook, Sunday 01/21/07 at 16:16 UTC - 4 replies
InnoTek have released their VirtualBox code under the GPL.
As far as I'm concerned this obsoletes qvm86, and I see no point continuing development. I recommend anyone interested in qvm86 use VirtualBox ...
QEMU is alive
Actually, QEMU and VirtualBox are different products.
VirtualBox has a very nice GUI and is available both for Linux and Windows.
On the other hande, I find using QEMU very simple ;-)
BTW, great magazine article.

I think we need a spell crit item. Should be extremely expensive, similar to IE, or Trinity Force. The unique passive: 10-20% spell crit, does not apply to ultimates (R). Gives AP, Gives CDR, MR and MP. Something like that.
Senior Member
Every single spell would have to be rebalanced if they let spells have a crit chance. I don't think it's worth it.
Spell crit may not be the best idea but i do think spells need more hit on effects for them then just Rylai's Crystal Scepter.
Spell crit was toyed with on the Test Realm a long time ago, through an item called the Oracle's Hood, which gave your spells the same crit chance as your auto-attacks. It was impossible to itemize for, since there are no AP/crit items, and even harder to balance because of the inherent randomness of crits.
As far as I know, Riot has no intention to go in that direction in any way.
kavinh the third
bad idea spells are already extremely powerful early game imagine u had a numu who's ult crit that's almost definitely kill any champion at level 6.
Ow My Feels
OP for nukers like veig.
Axis the Dragon
Imagine a fully-charged AP Nunu Absolute Zero. Or a full-distance Nidalee Javelin Toss. Now increase that damage by 200-250%.
You can see how unbalanced it would be.
Fat of the Land
The game needs less RNG, not more.
imagine if nasus q could crit.............

Stephen Pyne: Voyager spacecraft marked new age of discoverytags: NASA, space exploration, Stephen Pyne, Voyager, Arizona State University
Some are baffled and others saddened by the fact that humans put footprints on the moon more than 40 years ago and have not ventured a fraction of that distance from home since. Have we lost our spirit of exploration?
Not at all, said Arizona State University historian Stephen Pyne, but we're seeing the end of one great era of exploration and the start of a new one. In a talk May 15 at Drexel University, Pyne said we are just entering a third great era of exploration kicked off by the Voyager spacecraft, which explored thousands of times farther than any human-led expedition could go.
The twin spacecraft Voyagers 1 and 2 were launched in 1977 and since then have brought us spectacular pictures not only of the planets but their bizarre and diverse moons. Today, Voyager 1 is on the verge of crossing through a theoretical boundary called the heliopause, which marks the end of the solar wind's reach and the beginning of interstellar space....

Wire Basket Mirrored Suncatcher
pondgal(6a Pa.)August 2, 2010
I've just recently come back to this site recently. Kind of forgot about it.
About 5 or 6 years ago people here were making these suncatchers from a wire fruit basket from the $$$ store fishing line, cut mirrors and beads. I was cleaning out a cupboard when I found some leftover materials to make it, so I made up a new one, since the other was well worn by the weather.
I was really surprised to see if you do an archive search for wire basket suncatcher you will see 2 more that I did.
I love BLING, and I love how the morning sun hits this catcher and it just shines all over the yard and down to the road. :)
Sorry the pic isn't the greatest. It's hard to get something so large all in the shot.

As Academy Snubs Affleck for 'Argo,' Iran Plans Cinematic Response to ItJanuary 10, 2013 6:00 PM
Share with others:
TEHRAN -- A tough week for Ben Affleck just got tougher.
First, he was snubbed in the Oscar nominations on Thursday, overlooked in the best director race for "Argo," his film about the Central Intelligence Agency's extraction of six American diplomats from revolutionary Tehran. Now, news reports from Tehran say the Iranian government is planning to finance a movie that will correct what it says are "Argo's" numerous distortions of the historical record.
Not much is known about the proposed movie, other than its title, "The General Staff," and its director, Ataollah Salmanian, a minor figure in Iran's cinema industry. But it is a sure bet that it will center on the official Iranian view of the 1979 hostage crisis, in which 52 American diplomats were held by Islamic students for 444 days.
Following its release in October, "Argo" was condemned by Iranian officials as anti-Iranian. One former hostage taker, Abbas Abdi, after seeing the movie, said that he and his comrades would always be seen as "bad guys" in the United States. Others in Iran accused Mr. Affleck of promoting "Islamophobia."
Certainly, the director, Mr. Salmanian, sees his task in those terms. "This film, which will be a huge production, should be an appropriate answer to the film 'Argo,' which lacks a proper view of historical events," he told the semiofficial Mehr news agency this week. He has also written the screenplay for the movie, which, according to The Tehran Times newspaper, will be paid for by the Iranian government's Art Bureau.
Iran's leaders, who in recent years have started several foreign-language satellite channels to spread their ideology of political Islam, seem keen to get into the influential English-language movie industry. In February, Sean Stone, Oliver Stone's son, was invited to visit Iran, where he is now rumored to be making a movie with the help of the Iranian authorities.
Nevertheless, it is independently made Iranian films that have attracted foreign acclaim, with "A Separation," by Asghar Farhadi claiming the Oscar for best foreign-language film in 2012.
Last year the authorities closed down Iran's main film directors union, "The House of Cinema," accusing its members of having relations with foreign-based opposition channels. That has not kept controversial films out of Iranian cinema, however -- the movie "I Am Mother" showed people drinking alcohol and women without their obligatory head scarves, prompting protests from conservatives.world

Tweet of the Day: Matt Barnes Goes On Epic Rant After Getting $25K Fine
It would seem that the NBA levies punishment on its athletes and allows its owners to act with impunity. At least, that is what Los Angeles Clippers forward Matt Barnes would have you believe, after explaining in lengthy detail the circumstances for his most recent $25,000 dollar fine. At minimum, the picture he paints is certainly one of inequality showcasing the disparity between the level of professionalism expected of the league's athletes and its owners, in this case Phoenix Suns owner
Bernucca: Looking For a Championship Outlier? Try the Mavericks
One of the common complaints about the NBA – and a somewhat legitimate one at that – is that there are only a half-dozen teams or so that can truly win the championship. Think about it: Who do you have winning it all this season? Chances are it's one of the "Fab Five" – Cleveland, Chicago, San Antonio, Oklahoma City or the Los Angeles Clippers. And you're not off base, either. One of those teams is my pick – our staff's
Lob Sh**ty: The Clippers last hurrah in preseason game vs. Nuggets
LAS VEGAS — All I can say is that thank God this game was in the preseason or we would be qualifying the Clippers as the Clippers of OLD and not the new and improved #LobCity Clippers.

Although, on the other side of things, Denver came out with a 24′ 3 pt attempt from
SH Blog: Curry says he and Thompson are the best backcourt duo, Matt Barnes calls Mo Cheeks a d*ck
What backcourt is considered the best in the NBA heading into the upcoming season? That's the question in the minds of many this week, including the players themselves. For example, John Wall and Bradley Beal of the Washington Wizards openly stated that they are the best backcourt duo in the league on Tuesday. Dion Waiters of the Cleveland Cavaliers disagreed, word got back to Wall, and then the fun back and forth ensued between the two. Waiters got the final word,
Photo of the Day: Matt Barnes Donates $10K to Teen Cancer America
Thursday is always an interesting day for social media because you never know what you're going to see for #ThrowbackThursday. NBA players and teams are among those posting funny, embarrassing, or serious photos from their past, and it's always fun. Los Angeles Clippers forward Matt Barnes was among those with a fun #ThrowbackThursday post. In a photo he posted to his official Instagram on Thursday, he begins to make jokes about a picture of his family from the 1980s.
Five Things To Watch: Los Angeles Clippers
Talk about a fresh start … When the freshness starts in the ownership suite — or his courtside seat, as may be the case here, it is truly a new beginning. After a determined and gutty yet ultimately unsuccessful run in the 2014 postseason, the Los Angeles Clippers entered the offseason with a ton of questions regarding the future of their franchise. Although the Donald Sterling story died down a bit nationally a week or so after the initial TMZ audiotapes were released in
