Details of "Andhra employees" to be scrutinised by unions
Escalating tensions in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana Rashtra Samithi president K. Chandrasekhar Rao on Thursday said that "Andhra-domicile" employees would not be allowed to work in the offices of Telangana after he assumed office as Chief Minister of the new State that comes into being on June 2.
Mr. Rao's comments come against a backdrop of a raging controversy over what Telangana employees allege to be deliberate inclusion of "Andhra-domicile" employees on the list of staff for the new Telangana Secretariat.
The new Telangana government will study the list of employees as on the date of passage of the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Bill and send back staff from Seemandhra — both in district and State-level posts — to that region, Mr. Rao told a meeting of employees from Telangana.
Mr. Rao said he had informed Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan that the redeployment of employees would be reviewed after he assumed office because this process was not permitted in the absence of an elected government as per the recommendations of the States Reorganisation Commission.
In this context, Mr. Rao asked the participants of the meeting to send details of "Andhra employees" included on the Telangana list or to name them at the "war room" being run by various unions before June 2. The details should include place of birth and domicile. "There is no place for a mix of employees on the high-security premises. They cannot be allowed even at the gates," Mr. Rao said.

This is not Sigourney Weaver; This is an alien
Sigourney Weaver (badass), John Hurt (bursty), Winona Ryder ('bot), Aliens (bloody scary)
What's it about?
The Alien series – no longer, thankfully, called a quadrilogy – makes its debut on Blu-ray. You've probably seen all, or most, of the films. If you haven't, get up from your desk, head briskly toward the door, walk to the nearest Blu-ray retailer and then go home and watch at least the first two. The whole series tells of one woman's (Sigourney Weaver) mission to destroy, or at least not get killed by, a race of terrifying, impossibly vicious extra terrestrials.
What's good about it?
Well, all the films look fantastic on Blu-ray. Alien and Aliens might be well over 20 years old, but both have been given and excellent spit and polish for this release. They are also, of course, the best films. Alien, directed by Ridley Scott, is a haunted house movie in space, rarely letting you relax as it stylishly bumps off almost every member of a crew who become pray to the phallus-headed alien. Aliens, directed by James Cameron, is simply the greatest action sci-fi in the history of cinema. If you're a fan of bonus features then you couldn't ask for anything more than you get here. There are around 60 hours of gubbins to get through. You probably won't, unless you're very dedicated. The Blu-rays' 'MU-TH-UR mode' catalogues all the extras, so if you just fancy watching bits that feature Charles Dance, you can. Weirdo.
What's bad about it?
Alien 3, which went through all kinds of changes during production, much to the chagrin of director David Fincher, is a bit of a mess. It has its fans, who consider it a stark thriller, but compared to its predecessors it's a rather miserable experience with neither the subtle terror of Alien or the balls-out spectacle of Aliens. Alien Resurrection is basically just a bit rubbish.
The best possible Blu-ray package for a sci-fi series that is half amazing and half quite bum.
The Alien Anthology is available to buy on Blu-ray now.

Did a little check up on the old shop. The chatter on NES doesn't sound so good. Lolhttp://www.northeastshooters.com/vbulletin/gun-shops-reviews/165731-new-gun-shop-leominster-old-mill-gun-shop-9.html
After reading the entire thread on NES I was amazed at how quickly that shop went from "Great place to do business with" to "that place sucks" in the span of a month. Glad you got out of there mountainman.

Jon Lee Anderson
|Jon Lee Anderson
Anderson in 2010
|January 15, 1957
|Biographer, author, international investigative journalist
Jon Lee Anderson (born January 15, 1957) is an American biographer, author, investigative reporter, war correspondent and staff writer for The New Yorker, reporting from war zones such as Afghanistan, Iraq, Uganda, Israel, El Salvador, Ireland, Lebanon, Iran, and throughout the Middle East. Anderson has also written for The New York Times, Harper's, Life, and The Nation. Anderson has profiled political leaders such as Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro, and Augusto Pinochet.[1]
Personal life and early career[edit]
The son of Joy Anderson, a children's book author and University of Florida teacher, and of John Anderson, a diplomat and agricultural adviser for USAID and the Peace Corps, Anderson was raised and educated in South Korea, Colombia, Taiwan, Indonesia, Liberia, England, and the United States. His brother is Scott Anderson, a novelist and journalist, and they have co-authored two books.[2] He currently resides in Dorset, England, with his wife, Erica, and three children: Bella, Rosie and Máximo.[citation needed]
Anderson began working as a reporter in 1979 for the Lima Times in Peru. During the 1980s he covered Central America, first for the syndicated columnist Jack Anderson and later for Time magazine.[citation needed]
Anderson is also the author of a biography of the Marxist revolutionary Che Guevara called Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life, first published in 1997. While conducting research for the book in Bolivia, he discovered the hidden location of Guevara's burial from where his skeletal remains were exhumed in 1997 and returned to Cuba.[3]

Literary reception[edit]
Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life has received widespread acclaim[4][5][6] as a New York Times Notable Book of the Year[citation needed] and many reprints. In her 1997 critique of the book, U.S. author Jane Franklin claims "Anderson never quite communicates an understanding of why Guevara remains such a powerful presence. Relying too much on secondary sources for his knowledge of Cuban history, he fails to grasp the nature of the revolution for which Guevara, Fidel Castro and so many others were willing to die."[7] Conversely, author Peter Canby states, "Anderson does a masterly job in evoking Che's complex character, in separating the man from the myth and in describing the critical role Che played in one of the darkest periods of the cold war. Ultimately, however, the strength of his book is in its wealth of detail."[4]
In the Washington Monthly, Matthew Harwood's review of The Fall of Baghdad was full of praise, "his crisp and lush prose reads more like a work of literature than like reportage. But for all its literary beauty, the book's real power lies in its narrative strategy".[8]

I just wanted an inexpensive place to sleep so that I'd be able to drive the second leg of our trip the next day. Thankfully, I was exhausted. The young man at the front desk was really nice, even insisted I go see the room first. Unfortunately, I took a quick peek. I dealt with bed sheets that felt starched, but the bathroom was nasty. The sink & mirror were dirty, towels not stocked, & there were hairs all over the floor. I told my son he was not allowed to take a shower.

Top award for Exeter-based airline
Tuesday 25 January 2011
Flybe has won Best Short-Haul Airline and has been placed in the Top 5 for Best Airline Worldwide at the 2011 Business Travel Awards
Flybe, Europe's leading regional airline and the UK's Number One Domestic carrier has been named Best Short-Haul Airline for the second consecutive year at the 2011 Business Travel Awards held in London.
The awards are judged by top industry professionals and as such are not only regarded as the highest recognition given by the UK travel industry but also considered to be amongst the most valued recognition in the business travel sector worldwide.
In securing the Best Short-Haul Airline award, Flybe beat off tough competition from legacy carriers British Airways, Lufthansa and Finnair, clearly proving that the business model it adopted on formation in 2002 with value pricing and a strong commitment to customer service, continues to be favoured by business travellers for short haul flights.
For the first time, Flybe was the also shortlisted in the Top 5 for the Best Airline Worldwide award in the company of British Airways, Lufthansa, Qatar and Virgin Atlantic Airways.
Mike Rutter, Flybe's Chief Commercial Officer says: "We are delighted to receive such high profile recognition and, of course, to receive the Best Short-Haul Airline award for the second year in a row makes it particularly special for our staff and for our passengers.
"We were also pleased to have been amongst the airline giants nominated for the Best Airline Worldwide. It is clear validation that we are now firmly positioned as an industry leader with a successful business model committed to connecting communities and providing an affordable high-quality regional service for our business travellers."

Landscape fabric between berry rows?
I've got a half acre or mixed berries planted, all in rows of annually mulched raised beds.
As this is a lot of work I am hoping to simplify maintenance a bit. Plan was to mow but the grass is encroaching the berries much faster than I can manage it.
Would the heat generated from black fabric harm berries (blueberries/gooseberries/blackberries/currants etc etc)?
Any other issue you can think of? I figured on covering the ground in between rows, plus a swath all the way around the plot- but leaving rows exposed to allow mulch to be added. Just pegging it down and hoping the wind doesn't rip it up.
I don't like the idea of plastics or fabrics in the garden, but at least this breathes. Thanks.
The problem I've had with landscape fabric is that weeds start growing on top of it and through it. I have one heavy-duty piece that covers one pathway, and each spring for four years I've ripped it up and flipped it over.
The plan that's emerged for us over a period of years is grass/clover mix in wide corridors, and deep sawdust/wood chip mulch for the berries and fruit trees. The few weeds that come up through the mulch get well trampled during picking season.
Are they growing on top of fabric even without mulch placed over it?
We've got a very unique situation here where weed seeds come in by the millions all the time, and if grass/clover are grown in between rows these weeds are tough enough to establish within and spread over in no time.
Hoped fabric could cut that back.

How to needed for touille swags...
Hmm, did I spell touill right, sorry if I didn't not a word I use everyday. My sister is getting married in Feb..She would like swags made out of touil, flowers and ribbon and hang on every other pew at the church. Would someone tell me how to go about making these? Thank you.
Tulle is pretty easy to work w/, bcs it needs no hemming, so you can just cut it into the pieces.
And it's cheap, so you can experiment.
Basically, you cut a length of tulle, 12 inches wide or so (I'm guessing--experiment and see what you think, remembering that you can always cut it off, so start wide and trim down until you get a width that bunches up nicely--so it looks rich, but not overly pouffy).
Make it long enough to sag nicely across the end of the pew, and have ends that hang down a little bit--whatever looks good to your eye.
Then, find a way to bunch of gather it at two points (my vote: buy those "Goody" brand clear-plastic ponytail holders; they'll look invisible, be cheap, and be easy to use).
Once you've put on two ponytailers in the spot where you want them, then get some flowers, and tuck them in or on the swag. If the flowers are lightweight, you can nestle them int he folds; you can tuck their stems under the ponytailer.
Then tie ribbon around the ponytailers to decorate that spot. You could also cut ribbon the same length as the tulle pieces, and lay it along the tulle before you bunch it up and put the ponytailer around it.
As for how long you want the ribbon to be, figure 1 inch for the knot itself, enough for the two tails hanging down, and whatever you want for the loops--not much help, am I? Get some cheap ribbon and experiment (again, remember that you can always cut OFF, so start long and trim down).
Once you've made one w/ the dimensions you like (be sure to hold it up against the pew end) of tulle & ribbon, then cut a bunch all at once, and make them assembly-line style
The one thing I don't know is how to attach them to the pew--you could put a ribbon between the ponytailers on the back, and loop it over.
Of course, there may be other ways to do this that are sturdier than my ponytailer idea, but this would be easy and no-sew.
You might also go over to the "Sewing" forum and ask there.
(in case you want to do a web search, which might give you some other ideas, it's spelled tulle --but don't feel bad about not knowing how to spell it. I've worked at a home magazine,and we joke about "tulle, toile, tole, tuille"--all of which we use, and all of which mean very different things (Tuille is a food; the others have some fabric frame of reference)

After South Miami-Dade cockfighting bust, a jam-packed court for arraignments
When Miami-Dade police busted a staggering 158 people at a South Miami-Dade cockfighting ring last month, the next step of justice could not be avoided.
They had to show up for court.
And so on Friday, in a unique — and, at times — frenzied morning, hundreds of defendants, their supporters and an army of private and public lawyers crowded the fourth-floor of Miami-Dade's criminal courthouse for the arraignment.
While the arraignment was packed and loud, the morning was carefully choreographed.
Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Ariana Fajardo traded in her small second-floor digs for the roomy fourth-floor court normally reserved for high-profile trials.
Miami-Dade prosecutors wheeled in seven neatly organized boxes on a dolly, then handed out to lawyers spreadsheets with the names of the defendants. Info sheets passed out to lawyers described the instant offer of "pretrial diversion" — charges would be dropped in exchange for $1,150 in fines and fees.
The logistical muscle flocked to court: uniformed police and corrections officers, four bailiffs, a rotating cast of Spanish-language interpreters and one sole and very stoic clerk, responsible for filing the paperwork and reviewing each file.
In the hallway, 12 Miami-Dade assistant public defenders stood atop benches, hollering in Spanish for scores of defendants — court notices stuffed in their pockets — to gather around and fill out paperwork.
" Esto es una boberia," said Osmany Cruz, 48, a Cuban-born welder on disability who was arrested that day. "This is foolishness. This is just a hobby. No one was robbing or stealing. It's just a diversion."
One public defender bristled at the fines being offered: "You go to a baseball game, it's not going to cost $1,150. I doubt these people have that much money. They don't think they've done anything wrong."
Inside, Judge Fajardo patiently began calling up private lawyers, scanning the immense court calender as people buzzed in and out of court. "I've only got seven clients," joked Miami defense attorney Kenneth Weisman.
In all, only 10 defendants accepted the state's offer of pretrial diversion.
The investigation began from a tip that people were gambling and selling drugs at a home in the Redland in deep South Miami-Dade.
Undercover Miami-Dade police officers, posing as customers, started dropping in and making drug buys.
Then on April 24, armed with a search warrant, officers entered the home and stumbled upon about 200 people, some armed, almost all gambling, standing and seated around a cockfighting ring that had been built in a theater-like setting.
Cockfighting, a popular legal sport in some Latin American countries that has long flourished in the rural areas of South Miami-Dade, is outlawed in Florida.
There were so many arrests that Miami-Dade corrections staffers had to dispatch buses to haul the defendants into jail. The majority were charged with attending a fight involving animal cruelty, a third-degree felony.
"Hats off to the police and prosecutors for doing this important case," said John Goodwin, director of Animal Cruelty Policy for the Humane Society of the United States. "Tying knives to roosters legs and having them fight to the death, just so people can gamble, is despicable and should always be aggressively prosecuted."

Aussie fans will have a dose of Miley Cyrus's live vocals, twerking gallore, flashy costumes and maybe another controversial number as she invades the land down under this October.
The former "Hannah Montana" star will go to Australia for her Bangerz Tour. She will be in Brisbane (October 10), Melbourne (October 15), Sydney (October 17), Adelaide (October 20), and Perth (October 23). Tickets would range from $99.90 to $149.90.
This fourth concert tour would probably deliver another modern vaudevillian assembly of original hits like "Wrecking Ball," and covers like what she interpret in Outkast's "Hey Ya." Throughout her career as a pop star, she was able to prove her singing prowess as she hit high notes but could also sing lower ones. Her range made her songs more harmonious aside from catchy tempo and sing-able lyrics. Of course, it would be highlighted with dancers moving while Miley taking the center with her twerking.
Miley also became popular from wearing an array of concert costumes where the style was as flamboyant as Ziggy Stardust and the size as short as her hair. She already wore shiny cowboy boots, equally shiny top that imitate the shape of a bra and a high-cut bottom that was similar to 80s bikini.
But that's not all. Her concerts were filled with insane stunts she pulled off to grab more attention and to make the performance, well, more meaningful. She once suggested a raunchy act with a dancer covered in Bill Clinton mask, kneeling before him while singing. Then she had numbers with a dancer in Britney Spears mask, and holding a cut-out of Selena Gomez. In addition to that, she also kissed a dancer, dove her face in a blond woman's collosal chest, spread her legs in front of the audience, and would stick her tongue out while projecting an erotic pose. She also performed while riding an enormous hotdog sandwich and sliding in large, pink tongue.
People could not stop buzzing over Miley Cyrus's concerts. Despite the rather, distracting stunts, she was still able to gather compliments from the media and the fans anticipated for her performances. But who knows what she will do next.

Dulux hopes to make the job cleaner, easier and faster with the new Weathershield BackPack Roller system. Once you've attached the power unit to the paint pack you just drop it into the ergonomically designed rucksack, switch it on and you're ready to go – no more paint trays, spills or running up and down ladders to reload the brush. And Dulux says you'll get the job done twice as fast as a brush.
The system uses a battery-powered pump and a lightweight trigger on the roller handle to control and dispense the flow of paint, giving a smooth, even finish. When you're done, cleaning is as simple as attaching it to a tap with the supplied adaptor and flushing the tube and pump.
The rucksack has padded straps and is fully adjustable for a comfortable fit. It also offers three contact points with the ladder for safety.
The system is designed to work with Dulux Weathershield BackPack Roller System Smooth Masonry Paint which provides a UV-resistant film for longer lasting protection against extreme weather conditions and comes with a 15 year guarantee. The paint comes in the five most popular masonry colors as well as white, and is rainproof in half an hour.
There's also a range of accessories including an Extension Pole and an Edging Kit that's designed for keeping hands free when working from a ladder.
Dulux Weathershield BackPack Roller System has a RRP of £49.99 in the UK (around USD$80), with 5 liter paint £20.99 for white and £24.99 in other colors.Share

January 2015
Hopefully everyone had a Merry Christmas and I extend best wishes for a Happy and Healthy New Year to all!
We will be fishing the Steelhead run up north this winter as well as the lower Housatonic River for resident striped bass as we get into early March, right now the fishery is strong but I prefer to leave these fish alone during the colder months as to not stress them too much...plenty of time to get at them in March and April before he big girls come in!
Once again Happy New Year to all!
With over 35 years experience Captain Chris Elser specializes in connecting anglers with big striped bass whether you prefer casting large herring and bunker flies, drift live eels or live line adult menhaden! This is an addictive pursuit and our success rate on stripers over 30lbs. is second to none in the Western Long Island Sound with fish up to 42lbs. locally in the past several seasons. But, if you want to get more adventurous the Captain is also dialed into the Block Island fishery in which many stripers well over 50lbs. have been landed – rest assured that Captain Chris Elser will give you the best shot at a fish of a lifetime and you are certain to enjoy the hunt!
This one below was released quickly and measured 54" with a girth of 33" which according to the IGFA formula puts this fish at over 70lbs., and what makes this fish extra special is that it was caught in local CT waters in less than 10 feet of water!
The 62.5 lb. striped bass above was weighed in at the Block Island Boat Basin and caught by Heather Elser in less than 20 feet of water. Should have made it official as it could have been a women's world record!
Fish the Legendary Norwalk Islands, Long Island's North Shore, the Housatonic River and Estuary – leading to proven trophy striped bass water, Candlewood Lake, Lake Lillinonah and the Farmington River.
Specializing in Fly Fishing, Live Bait, Spin & Sight Casting to Striped Bass, Bonito, False Albacore, Fluke, Trout, Smallmouth Bass and Pike. Experience Trophy Striped Bass fishing with Captain Chris Elser who has had over 35 years of angling passion guiding you to the fish!
As a USCG licensed captain and fully-insured guide, Chris uses his cumulative experience to put anglers on fish. Chris is a natural teacher with a winning personality who will make you feel comfortable even before you step onboard.
To experience world class trout fishing right here in CT contact Derrick Kirkpatrick. He specializes in targeting trophy trout on the Farmington River - check out his info at CTfishguides.com. There are very few anglers tuned into the Farmington River trout fishery like Derrick, he will ensure you come away with a valuable lesson!
Shore Guiding and Kayak trips are also available and I highly recommend Peter Viviano for either if you are a fly fisherman - you can check out his info at Fishflyes.com! Pete is a classic fly fisherman and accomplished caster who is able to adapt to any current situation the western sound has to offer from the surf. If you are interested in obtaining a wealth of knowledge about the ecology of the western sound as well as catching striped bass on the fly Pete is a go to guide. His custom flies are amazing to look at but more importantly they catch fish! I personally fish his bunker and herring yak patterns exclusively when targeting big fish on the fly. In July of 2010 I caught my personal best fly rod striper on one of Pete's spun deer hair eel patterns, that epic fish measured 48 inches and weighed over 40 lbs.

No major discrepencies in Frazee School audit
With a few discrepancies noted, the Frazee-Vergas School District audit came back without incident.
Heather Johnson of the accounting firm Carlson Highland, which conducted the district's audit, went through the audit with the school board Monday night, which questioned fairly little of last year's activities.

Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
Guy Montag is a book-burning fireman undergoing a crisis of faith. His wife spends all day with her television "family," imploring Montag to work harder so that they can afford a fourth TV wall. Their dull, empty life sharply contrasts with that of his next-door neighbor Clarisse, a young girl thrilled by the ideas in books, and more interested in what she can see in the world around her than in the mindless chatter of the tube. When Clarisse disappears mysteriously, Montag is moved to make some changes, and starts hiding books in his home. Eventually, his wife turns him in, and he must answer the call to burn his secret cache of books. After fleeing to avoid arrest, Montag winds up joining an outlaw band of scholars who keep the contents of books in their heads, waiting for the time society will once again need the wisdom of literature.
Bradbury--the author of more than 500 short stories, novels, plays, and poems, including The Martian Chronicles and The Illustrated Man--is the winner of many awards, including the Grand Master Award from the Science Fiction Writers of America. Readers ages 13 to 93 will be swept up in the harrowing suspense of Fahrenheit 451, and no doubt will join the hordes of Bradbury fans worldwide. --Neil Roseman

Summary: Internationally acclaimed with more than 5 million copies in print, Fahrenheit 451 is Ray Bradbury's classic novel of censorship and defiance, as resonant today as it was when it was first published nearly 50 years ago. Guy Montag was a fireman whose job it was to start fires. The system was simple. Everyone understood it. Books were for burning . along with the houses in which they were hidden. Guy Montag enjoyed his job. He had been a fireman for ten years, and he had never questioned the pleasure of the midnight runs nor the joy of watching pages consumed by flames. never questioned anything until he met a seventeen-year-old girl who told him of a past when people were not afraid. Then he met a professor who told him of a future in which people could think. and Guy Montag suddenly realized what he had to do!. Bookseller Inventory # ABE_book_new_0345342968

What it is about….
Hemanth Movies' Jannal Oram, produced by K. Murugan and written and directed by Karu. Pazhaniappan, has Vemal, Parthiban, Vidharth, Ramana, Poorna, Manisha, Rajesh, Singam Puli, Santhana Bharathi and Ilavarasu. The music is scored by Vidyasagar, the camera is handled by Arabhindu Sara, the editing is by Saravana, and the lyrics are by Yugabharathi. The first audio CD was released by actor Suriya and received by actor Vishal. Jannal Oram is a fascinating story set in a village that's linked to a town by a single bus service.
Music highlights
There are six numbers in the album and the best one is 'Ennadi Ennadi Oviyame' sung by Tippu and Vishal. 'Aasa Vecha Manasula' follows in the voices of Tippu, Haricharan, Priya Hemesh, Abirami, Priyadarshini and Velmurugan. 'Yela Mala Thoppa' is sung beautifully by Anuradha Sriram and Velmurugan, while 'Unna Paakama' sung by Haricharan, Abirami and Cicily is good. The other two numbers, 'Athili Puthili' sung by a group of singers K. Lakshman, Aravindh, Rishi, Haresh, Iswarya and Aswitha, and 'Aatho Apattho' sung by Bhoopalam Bragadeesh and Senthil, are equally enjoyable.
What they say…
Producer K. Murugan: I started as an assistant director to "Billa" Krishnamoorthy and worked on actor K. Balaji's productions for nearly 10 years. I produced films from 1996 and this is my fifth production. I was also an executive producer for about five films.
Director Karu. Pazhaniappan: This is my sixth film and it deals with seven different characters that travel on a bus; all of them have equally important roles. The story unfolds on their journey. It would be a novel experience for viewers to watch a film of this nature.
Hero Vemal: I am happy to share screen space with Parthiban, Santhana Bharathi and Rajesh. The location where we shot looked like a picnic spot. I play the conductor, while Parthiban is the driver. I wanted to work in an offbeat film, with interesting twists and turns and this film presented me with the right opportunity. The director has changed some portions of the original Malayalam hit Ordinary to suit the Tamil audience.
Music director Vidyasagar: I like doing the score for Karu. Pazhaniappan, as he gives me challenging situations and also believes that music helps take a film forward. All his films are different from one another. He has given me a free hand in Jannal Oram and the music has come out well.

HoopsHype Rodney Stuckey rumors
Stuckey's recent play has fans wondering and worrying if the Pacers will be able to keep him beyond this season. He says not to worry. "I want to be here," he said. "When that time comes, we'll definitely figure something out." Coach Frank Vogel is on board with that, saying before the game the plan all along has been to make Stuckey a more permanent fixture of the team. NBA.com
"I love it here, man," he said. "I'm staying in the city, close to everything. I love it here. My family loves it here. I love the people in this organization. Definitely, I want to come back. That's a no-brainer. Having a guy like Paul George here, of course I want to come play with an All-Star. Who doesn't? Definitely want to be back here." NBA.com
Call him a minimum-salary player, too, but put an asterisk on that as well. Stuckey took a cut in pay to come to the Pacers to clear his name, and so far is doing a dramatic job of that. "A lot of people were questioning my character," he said. "'Oh, he's not a good teammate.' This and that. That and this. I'm a great guy. I'm very humble, I come to work each and every day, do my business." But someone with the Pistons tried to sully his reputation, he said. "It's just unfortunate," he said. "I'm not going to say names, but I know who it was. It's just unfortunate for that person to throw me under the bus." NBA.com
"I wish they wouldn't have traded away Chauncey the first time," Stuckey said today at The Palace, where he'll take the floor as a visitor for the first time when his Indiana Pacers play the Pistons. "To be honest with you. I wish they would have took the San Antonio Spurs' philosophy of keeping all their vets, getting younger guys around their vets, and doing it that way. You see how successful they are. "After Chauncey left, that's when everything went downhill. He was the glue that kept everything together, kept everybody accountable. Once you trade that away, you see what happens. Everything was just a domino effect after that." Booth Newspapers
"I was shocked," Stuckey said. "He's a guy who has two years left on his contract. Over $26 million. So I was shocked. But obviously Stan wants to go in a different direction. It's his team. They just decided that was best. Good for both sides. "Now Josh gets to go to a great team and try to win and compete for a championship." Booth Newspapers
Candace Buckner: Rodney Stuckey had an X-Ray on his left wrist and results were negative but he and Hibbert are listed as "day to day" Twitter @CandaceDBuckner
Candace Buckner: Rodney Stuckey expected out next three games and possibly longer, per #Pacers coach Frank Vogel Twitter @CandaceDBuckner
Scott Agness: Rodney Stuckey (tendon) practiced some today and is questionable for tomorrow. Twitter @ScottAgness
Billups was the perfect mentor for a young point guard, and the perfect leader for any team. So when Billups was traded to Denver for Allen Iverson one week into the 2008-09 season, Stuckey suffered for it. "Once Chauncey was traded, everything went downhill from there," Stuckey said. "Chauncey was the glue who held everything together. Once he was traded, it was a domino effect. One thing after another. Something happened, then this happened, that happened. So it was tough, you know? "You go from this guy who's been an All-Star and Finals MVP to a guy like Allen Iverson who's a completely different type of player. Chauncey was the leader, the role model. Allen Iverson was a scorer, a guy who just gets buckets. He can give you 40 if you want him to. And then you have Rip (Hamilton) on the other side that you need to get the ball to and you can't forget about Tayshaun (Prince). It was a tough situation. It was a lot that was thrown at one person at one time. I was just trying to figure stuff out. But it happened the way it happened. You learn from each experience." NBA.com
"I don't like losing," he said. "Sometimes in Detroit, we'd be close in a game and be losing and people would be OK with it because it was a close game and we played hard. But we still lost. I don't accept that. I want to win. That's where a lot of the conflict came from. I'm a competitor, man. I don't like losing. I don't come out here just to get a sweat and lose and be happy. That's not me. I try to compete each and every night and let the chips fall." NBA.com
He made it official by signing a one-year deal Monday morning for $1,227,985, the veteran's minimum (for a player with seven years of experience). What Stuckey brings is a fresh mindset as he looks to jumpstart his career. "I've been in Detroit for sevens years, a lot of ups and downs, a lot of different situations, a lot of different coaches – six in seven years," he said. "But you live and learn, you grow from every situation. I just want to thank Detroit for giving me that opportunity to make my NBA dreams come true by drafting me. It's a fresh start, and I'm excited for it." Vigilant Sports
He is spending much of his offseason back home in Covington, Washington. He acquired the keys to his high school gym, Kentwood, and has been going through two workouts a day. He's eager to talk with his new teammates for the first time and get to work. "I know I'm not going to have a problem fitting in with these guys," said Stuckey. "I'm very humble, I'm laid back, I'm very respectful, and I think we're all going to get along with each other very well. "I got to come in and everyone's respect first and foremost, and just fit in. I'm not trying to come in and try to doing nothing out of the ordinary. I'm just trying to come in, be level-headed, learn from these guys, just play hard with them and compete with them." Vigilant Sports
The Indiana Pacers announced Monday they have signed free agent Rodney Stuckey. Per team policy, terms of the contract were not released. "Rodney is a very talented player who can create and score in a variety of ways," said Pacers President of Basketball Operations Larry Bird. "We're very happy to get a player with his experience and who has made it very clear of his desire to win." NBA.com

MSC Lirica
Our cruise on MSC Lirica was most enjoyable. We chose the itinerary because most of the places we had not visited before. It is a beautiful ship, so clean and well kept. The nightly shows were great and always different, the musicians and dancers were extremely talented. The food was good and lots of choice. Keep in mind that it is an Italian line and therefore a lot of Europeans on board, not many from North America, although we were seated with 3 other couples from Ontario whose company we enjoyed each evening.
The pizza served on deck 11 was fantastic and available from noon till midnight. Also keep in mind that children travel free on MSC so if you choose August for your cruise, yes there will be many children on board. We had an ocean view room which was very comfortable, even though small, it had a large window. We would choose MSC again..... Less

ClubReg Registration made easy
In Memory of Bob Benson
Sadly Bob Benson, the safety chair for our driving programs (south central US)
for many years, passed away on Friday from health issues while performing his
duties at the track. Bob has dedicated his career to ensuring the safety of our drivers, instructor/coaches and corner workers.
It was Bob who would inspect each track in the spring and make required recommendations to the tracks' management for corrections before clubs would participate at their location. It was Bob who was almost first to arrive at the track on the day of (or day before) an event to ensure that the track conditions, equipment and personnel were all in place for a safe and successful event. And it was Bob who would drive the track before anyone else and report any hazards or abnormalities that may exist.
So even if you didn't regularly participate in the driving events that were affected by Bob's work, you can appreciate how much he meant to the clubs.
Please register online here for the celebration of life so we can properly provision the event. If you haven't registered and discover that you can come please come anyway.
Funeral Service: Thursday 26th of March 2015 at 1pm.
