No regrets for Jackson
Stephen Jackson was at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport late last week, minutes from begrudgingly boarding a connecting flight to San Francisco, when his cell phone buzzed in his pocket. The call was coming from a number with a 210 area code he didn't immediately recognize, so Jackson let it go to voicemail. Then came the […] [Read More]
Spurs notebook: Timing of three days off pleasing to Parker
As deftly as Gregg Popovich has managed the minutes of his players in the compressed, 66-game post-lockout schedule — only Tony Parker and Tim Duncan average as many as 28 minutes per game — the Spurs coach is mindful of the grind that awaits his team in the final six weeks.

Cuban ambivalent about Jackson coming to the Spurs
Loquacious Dallas owner Mark Cuban, always a "favorite" of Spurs Nation, managed to turn the intensity up in the simmering Spurs-Mavs rivalry — again.

Press Release: PUNCH RARE COROJO RETURNS WITH NEW FRONTMARK

Called Rare Corojo 10th Anniversary, the 5†x 50 frontmark is unique in that it will feature a proprietary Connecticut Corojo wrapper. The new cigar will begin selling in late March for a suggested retail price of $6.50 per cigar until the limited supply is depleted.

This year, we're pleased to have upped the ante by offering the classic Punch Rare Corojo along with the standout new taste of the 10th Anniversary frontmark.â€

Alec Bradley Tempus Maduro Medius 6 Cigar Review
This 6×52 dark chocolate stick offers thick and stiff construction with minimal veins, invisible seams, a rich oily wrapper and a soft sweet tobacco aroma. First light reveals a very snug almost unsmokeable draw, minimal smoke output and medium bodied flavors of a very earthy black pepper with a deep finish. Rolling the stick gently I loosened up a bit of a plug near the band which opened the draw significantly. Still on the firm side it smokes fine with good output giving medium body flavors of a rich, oily and creamy earthy chocolate with black pepper especially on the long finish. 30 minutes in at the start of the 2nd third, flavors added a bit more chocolate and a touch of sweetness. This stick likes 2 quicker puffs rather than a long slow draw to keep the thick wrapper burning normally. 55 min in at the 1/2 way point flavors changed to a deep earthy oily coffee, with a good bit of strength kick to it, yet only medium body flavors. I'm surprised how slowly it's burning considering how often it needs to be drawn. Ending at 1:30 where it began to get too warm for my taste, the last third transitioned to just a deep earthy tobacco with a very heavy aftertaste. Strength was near full certainly much more strength than body flavor. A big thank you goes out to viewer Jonathan Novatt for sending in this fine sample for review!

Dona Flor Puro Mata Fina Robusto Cigar Review
This 5×52 stick offers a dark brown wrapper with slight imperfections, stretch marks, medium veins, color variation at the seams, a handrolled lumpy but firm and even constructions with a slightly sweet tobacco aroma. First light reveals a great draw, good smoke production and flavors of an almost aged tobacco with super smooth almost musty creamy medium body dry flavors and a long finish. The first third continues the exact same experience, burning fairly quickly with a very even line, great draw and smoke output. 25 min in at the 1/2 way point the ash fell off in a solid chunk, flavors remained virtually unchanged, only adding a bit of pepper on the finish. 40 min in at the start of the last third, flavors change to a softer tobacco with a bit of sweet caramel on the end of the draw, and the pepper is more pronounced, giving a bit of zing on the long finish. Ending at 55 min, past the band point the whole thing changed to a full body, heavy deep earth with a burned nut flavor and really strong after taste. It bordered on bitter, just knocking me out with hot temperature smoke and earthiness. Thank you very much to CigarsFromBrazil.com for sending a sample for review!

Cohiba Red Dot Toro Cigar Review
This 6×50 stick offers a dark brown wrapper with an uneven but firm and dense pack, moderate tooth, minimal veins and tight seams with a double cap. The aroma is a slight barnyard and earth with a mild pepper. First light reveals a very deep, take your breath away kind of earthiness with a medium body, long finish and small pepper kick. The first third develops into an overwhelmingly dry, deep pepper nd earth, with a slight spice kick for a few seconds on the tounge after each draw. The burn and draw are both perfect, with plenty of rich smooth smoke. 45 min in just past the 1/2 way point the flavors are just about the same, just getting more mellow and smoothed together somewhat. 1 hour in at the band point, it transitions to a smooth deep earth with a bigger pepper and spice kick and medium bodied licorice just after the draw, keeping the earth finish. Finishing at 1:20 min, the last nub was just as tasty! Thank you very much to Alan May for generously sending this in for review!

Battleheart Developer Drops Android As 'Unsustainable' 649
from the unsung-is-an-odd-word-there dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
I'm sorry, but this is just complaining from an Apple Fanboy. He's wrong on several points, and it's easy to see with a little thinking.
Android has what, four versions in the wild? iOS has 3, 4 and 5 taking up something like 15, 20, and 65% roughly. Not a great deal of difference there.
As for crashing, has he ever used an iOS device? Apps and the OS crash about equally to android.
And if your app is approaching Android's 4GB limit, then I'm sorry, but you're doing something REALLY wrong and should step back and take a look at efficiency,
This sounds like a complaint from a guy who is basically saying "Development is hard, and I don't want to work to make things good". Just as well he's calling it quits, shape up or ship out I say.
Yes, and his battleheart is obviously a gay fantasy game that will have much more demand from an apple audience.
dur Apple is evil, google is open. dur the corporation i like (and dont work for, have an investment in, have friends at) is better than some corporation i dont like... durr
You bet. Those folks are already used to spending two or three times as much on stuff that isnt even that great. Anyone could make money selling stuff to Apple consumers.
So what you say, is that two mostly Java-based platforms have the worst portability of the bunch?
Though not surprised, I find that quite ironic.

Citrix today announced the extension of its growing line of mobility solutions with the enhancement and availability of several apps that help power mobile workstyles. Citrix's portfolio of easy-to-use collaboration, data sharing, remote access and IT support tools are available across more platforms than ever before including Apple iOS, Google Android, Microsoft Windows RT and Windows 8, and BlackBerry OS.
"Teams are working across a broader range of devices than ever before and need a consistent, great experience in terms of the content they can access and the ways they can collaborate," said Bernardo de Albergaria, VP & GM, Line of Business, Citrix. "We now deliver a wide range of mobile tools enabling users to get work done, regardless of location. Individuals can seamlessly move from their laptop in the office, to their Android device on the commute, to their iPad in the home, maintaining access to the information and individuals they need to be most productive."
Powering New Mobile Workstyles
According to Forrester, 29% of the global workforce are now anytime, anywhere information workers who use three or more devices, work from multiple locations and use many apps.1 As employees increasingly choose flexible workstyles that give them the power to decide where and when they work, businesses inevitably become more distributed as people become more dispersed.
Citrix's family of mobile applications gives individuals and organizations the power to meet with team members wherever they are, collaborate on projects, share data and access devices remotely from virtually any mobile platform. Adoption of mobile workstyles can increase productivity by 30% or more, with associated cost reductions, as people can work in ways that are both convenient to them while also moving business forward faster, completing projects more quickly while providing individuals with greater choice as to where and how they work.
Citrix's suite of collaboration tools for mobile devices includes the following recent additions:
- For collaboration, GoToMeeting for Windows RT and Android: Users can choose to launch or simply join an online meeting from their Windows RT or Android device viewing presentations, reports or other content and collaborating over high definition video and audio.
- For team collaboration, Podio for BlackBerry Z10: The leading project management tool adds another mobile device platform to a growing list of devices that allows users a way to collaborate and get work done on the move.
- For data sharing and storage, ShareFile for Windows 8 and Android: The built-for-business file-sharing service is now available on Windows 8 tablets and PCs. Citrix also released passcode support with local encryption and jailbreak detection on Android, offering users a quick and secure way to access and share their data.
- For remote support and services, GoToAssist for Samsung Android devices: Support representatives can deliver full remote control support for Samsung Android mobile devices, as well as deliver support to iOS and Android devices via optimized chat with the ability for users to upload device screenshots to technicians.
- For remote access across your devices and systems, GoToMyPC for Samsung Android devices: The new GoToMyPC remote access app, designed for Samsung's new generation of Android mobile devices, gives users access to their Mac or PC from a mobile device –dramatically improving user productivity.

Help make it easier for other Avvo users to choose the right lawyer by sharing your experience with this attorney. It's fast, simple, and safe.
Lawyers: Use the Peer Endorsements section to provide input about other attorneys.
I highly recommend this attorney because he is very bright, experienced, and responsible. I used him many years ago and I was very happy with the outcome of my case. Also, he always returns my calls when I leave a message.
This attorney handled a case for us, and he is absolutely the worst attorney we have ever worked with. We know he sent fabricated bills with exaggerated hours, and neither he nor the office help EVER returned phone calls or emails, despite repeated attempts over several YEARS, yes, years, it took to settle the case! And, he didn't help us, at all. We found out later, that we could have won & spent a LOT less money, both to settle the case AND on an attorney. He found out what our worth was first, then billed accordingly!! How do we know?! We knew someone else who used him for a different matter. Disgusting. We found him to be untrustworthy, undependable, and very disorganized. I'd gladly give more information to save even ONE person from what we went through, but want to remain anonymous. Don't trust him. Wouldn't put anything past him. If possible, please do yourself a favor...get ANY other attorney! They're bound to be better. Do not trust this person for a second. Better to be safe than sorry. Oh, and check his record with California State Bar. That should tell you something! AVOID. I cannot stress this enough.
Yaspan's law firm is LITERALLY the WORST law firm that I have ever dealt with. Not only is it impossible to get a returned phone call or even for that matter, a returned email response, but after three weeks of attempting to get a reply from them I received a bill for $1,300....FOR NOTHING. This firm is a scam and does not provide anything of value. I STRONGLY recommend never working with them unless you feel like donating money to an unworthy cause.

The Reverse Mirage Effect: Catching the Thermal Wave at the Solid/Liquid Interface
Volume 41, Number 7 (Oct. 1987) Page 1106-1113
Smith, Matthew J.; Palmer, Richard A.
Detection of species at the solid/liquid interface using infrared spectroscopy is severely limited by the opacity of most liquids to the infrared beam. In this work we use a variant of the photothermal beam deflection ("mirage effect") method to avoid this problem. With this variant of the method (the "reverse mirage effect"), the IR beam passes through a transparent solid first, and then is absorbed by a liquid medium or by chromophoric species at the solid/liquid interface. The probe laser beam grazes the nonilluminated (back) surface of the solid and is deflected by the thermal gradient in the liquid. Results are presented that were obtained with the use of the reverse mirage technique with single-crystal silicon as the transparent solid and the use of pure acetonitrile as the absorbing sample and beam deflection medium. Studies of the position of the laser probe beam center with respect to the Si/CH3CN interface reveal interesting qualities about photothermal detection within the absorbing medium. The resulting spectra are analyzed in terms of the Rosencwaig-Gersho model.

Cloth Strips As Wicks
I found a thread on here that referenced an experiment someone was conducting with "sleeve" material for drainage pipe as a wick. I also ran across a few posters using mop strings and one or two linking a design of a simple swc using cloth strips tied in a knot, with the knot in the container and the loose end down in the reservoir. has anyone tried this method? If so, any success? I believe I read that a poster had used 4 mop head strings for some cukes and thought 6-8 may be better.
I am having trouble matching up my drain cup size to the gutter reservoir I will be using. I also would like to cut down anything else I need to buy!
After I posted that I figured I would get a snarky response or two...I guess thats my first.
Yes I did read about cloth/cotton as a wick, but as you probably know, there is relatively little information regarding wicking methods and results when using alternatives to existing methods. Most of what I found is descriptions of how someone set up their system or what they were testing. There are plenty of posts and sites discussing methods but relative to traditional gardening or even container gardening there is no authoritative figure or standard.
And yes, the more I read, the more I realized a cotton wick may not be the best choice. Like I said, I knew after I posted I left myself open for a critical reply post.
As for "cut down anything else" comment, I was typing from a tablet. I left out a few words there somehow. I was looking to cut cost.
I picked up a drain sleeve for drainage pipe and some nylon rope for experimentation.
Thanks for your helpful response Mr. Dickie....

The Hassan district unit of the Communist Party of India (CPI) has demanded that a compensation of Rs. 30 lakh be given to the family of a youth who was killed, allegedly by Anti-Naxal Force personnel, at Tanikodu check-post, near Sringeri.
M.C. Dhongre, district president, CPI, on Wednesday said the government had done the appropriate thing by registering a murder case against the ANF constable. "BJP leaders' remarks criticising the government's act is uncalled for. When the personnel have admitted to wrongdoing, whoever did the mistake should be punished. There is nothing wrong in booking a case against the ANF constable," he said.
He added that the compensation of Rs. 10 lakh that was announced was insufficient.
He demanded that the government increase it to Rs. 30 lakh.

Are pickles healthy
Monita is a Recipe Tester for Food52
The pickling process is high in sodium so as a "vegetable" choice pickles may not be not ideal
With respect to dill pickles, typically the calorie count is very low. However, as Monita indicated, the salt content is not. In addition, look out for whether or not sugar is added.
Not all pickles have a lot of salt. I've found that perishable (not shelf-stable) brands, especially local refrigerated brands, may actually contain very little salt. Check the label and choose accordingly.
Most pickles are high in sodium, so for those of you on a medically restricted diet, it is best to avoid them. I have only made my own pickles once and the process I used was natural fermentation. The result was a pickle with much less sodium, so a lower sodium pickle is doable.

Editorial Reviews for Alexander Valley Vineyard Alex Val Cabernet Sauvignon Wetzel Family
Raspberry candy and root beer greet the nose backed by a lovely, tense steely tone. Sweetly fruited with watermelon jolly ranchers and black raspberry fruits that are sweet and supple yet quite focused. This really has a wonderful mouthfeel, it's still a little tight and rigid, and quite refreshing. The tannins are still just a touch stiff even if they are very well balanced and the wine can stand a bit of time in the bottle but it's certainly attractive right now. 90pts
Member Reviews for Alexander Valley Vineyard Alex Val Cabernet Sauvignon Wetzel FamilyAdd your review
The first time I tasted this, I absolutely fell in love. Cherry, plum, and (excellently balanced) black pepper make this fun to figure out food pairings, as well as sip along with a cigar or pipe.
On first opening the nose consists of sour pie cherries with strong mineral notes. The palate is currant, toast and spice with a lingering cedar spice finish. With air the nose develops dark currant notes as does the palate with a finish that has more toasty character to the spices.
rich nose of blackcurrant and berries....full bodied with supple tannins with a long finish
Good, but not as good as the 2006 or the 2005. Not as much depth on the palate as previous years. Good nose and easy drinking. A nice wine but lacks that little tad more structure that past years have had.Cheers!
Cherry on the nose with a little pepper. Dark through the middle with light coming through on the edges. Nice spice with dark fruit forward to start. Long finish. A nice wine to start the evening with. Have a haunted house to attend to support the local Humane Society.
Nose of green apple, pear, and citrus with more green apple and citrus on the palate with a lengthy creamy finish.
A solid Gewurz that manages to be fairly spicy, without moving across the line to 'hot.'
External Reviews for Alexander Valley Vineyard Alex Val Cabernet Sauvignon Wetzel Family
"This Cabernet Franc exhibits notes of violets
"To maximize the color and flavors
"If you are looking for more evidence
The Wetzel family has farmed this vineyard since 1963, and the current edition of their cabernet chows straightforward cassis flavors which would be just right with roast duck.
A feisty red, Sin Zin brightens up the palate with a non-stop rush of ripe berry flavors; easy tannins in the finish.
A rustic range of well-integrated, juicy black cherry, mineral and herb flavors that linger on the finish where the tannins are mild. Drink now through 2000.
This is a wine destined for greatness. The 2005 is a rich, juicy Cab with an expressive nose of cassis and spice, and flavors of black cherry and cocoa along with an undercurrent of eucalyptus and mint. The wine is already displaying a lot of concentration and depth, indicating it should keep getting better and better.
Food Pairings for Alexander Valley Vineyard Alex Val Cabernet Sauvignon Wetzel Family
Tasting Notes:
Concentrated, rich and intense, the 5-Star General offers a full-force Cabernet experience. The silken core reveals layers of flavors wrapped in plush tannins. A tight yet juicy mix of cedar, wild berry and black currant fuse with hints of anise, eucalyptus and a mineral essence to linger into the finish. Best to give this General some breathing room before serving, or a few more years in the cellar.
