Jimmer Fredette makes debut with Chicago, says Bulls 'play the right way'
Jimmer Fredette's new home is the Windy City, and he was well-received in his debut.
The Chicago Bulls announced Sunday morning that the former BYU basketball star signed with the team for the remainder of the season. Fredette played his first minutes as a Bull in the team's 109-90 victory over New York later in the day, scoring two points and grabbing two rebounds in just over three minutes of playing time.
He wore a number familiar to Cougar fans, No. 32.
When Fredette played for the first time, ESPN Chicago writer Nick Friedell tweeted out:
Jimmer comes into the game. The crowd is going nuts.— Nick Friedell (@NickFriedell) March 2, 2014
Then a short time later:
Jimmer knocks down his first shot. Crowd goes nuts again.— Nick Friedell (@NickFriedell) March 2, 2014
"I see how this team plays and they play hard every single night and for each other," Fredette told the Chicago Tribune prior to the game. "They play the right way and that's something I was looking for, to come into a team where I could fit in and play the way I wanted to and play hard every night and be part of a team. I'm excited to be here. I can't wait to start."
While the team did not disclose terms of the contract, Bulls.com writer Sam Smith said the deal would be a prorated minimum contract. Fredette was bought out by his previous team, the Sacramento Kings, on Thursday.
"We are very excited to add a player like Jimmer to our roster," Bulls General Manager Gar Forman said in a team statement announcing his signing. "We've followed him closely throughout his collegiate and professional career, and believe he'll be the type of player that will fit in with our group and be an asset to the team."
Fredette joins a guard lineup that includes D.J. Augustin, Kirk Hinrich, Tony Snell and Jimmy Butler. Derrick Rose is out for the season.
While Fredette is known for his defensive deficiencies, he will bring an outside shooting touch to a team that is in need. Heading into Sunday's game, the Bulls ranked 26th in the league in 3-point shooting at 34.4 percent; Fredette is shooting 49.3 this season from beyond the arc.
"We could always use shooting, so we'll see," Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau told ESPN Chicago. "I know they're looking at a number of guys right now. But any time we could add shooting, we're interested. I think the more shooting you have, the more it opens up the floor."
Fredette will have a chance to face his former team, the Kings, when Sacramento visits Chicago on March 15. He will also have the opportunity to take on former BYU teammate Brandon Davies twice this month when the Bulls play the Philadelphia 76ers on March 19 and 22. Davies is currently out with a finger injury.

the bar is a little brittle, which is surprising at first, but it tastes soooo good! and it makes you chew more, so more time to enjoy!!
Kids love them

My daughters both love this flavour - I think it's not bad but a bit messy for on the go due to the chocolate. Not a Larabar problem tho, just a logistical issue for me :)
Posted by CindyW on Jun 25, 2013
This is my favorite flavor out of the three I have tried so far (the others being coconut cream and chocolate coconut). I'll have to buy these sparingly or else I'll be going through boxes and boxes every month!
Great for us who have problems getting enough calories in our diet.
Posted by InozarDeBenz on Jul 10, 2013
I have many allergies and food intolerances, and have a lessened appetite due to all the food substances I need to cut from my diet. So I search for products that may increase my appetite, as well has having lots of calories in them. I tolerate very little fruits, so I almost consider it a small miracle that I tolerate the Larabar energy bars well. I have tried most Larabar energy bars (in a matter of as short time span as two months), and by far, I must say that this one ranks high to me; it is one of my favourites. As you can see from what is most popular in regards to sales number, you can tell that this is not only my personal favourite; this Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip has quite a universal appeal. I have never really had a sweet tooth, but of some reason I like most of the Larabar energy bars. Tastewise I recommend this specific product.
Des barres parfaites
Posted by BulleVirtuelle on Jan 02, 2014
Une composition excellente, je n'ai pas encore vu mieux. On sent bien le goût de banane. Les barres sont consistantes et permettent de caller un creux entre les repas principaux. Je les utilise soit le matin au petit déjeuner, en dessert lors d'un pique-nique ou si j'ai vraiment fin au moment du goûter. Je vais tester d'autres goûts mais je les rachèterais sûrement.

From the Publisher"This is an extraordinary book. As a child who fled Nazi persecution, I was fascinated to learn from this important study how the European culture of our origin (our cultural capital) merged with the freedom and academic opportunities of our newfound homeland, the United States, to give my generation of émigrés a distinctive set of capabilities, ambitions, and opportunities for a remarkably productive and enjoyable life despite the traumatic uprooting of our childhood. This beautifully documented analysis also illustrates two ways in which this infusion of émigrés differed from other waves of immigration. First, because of their youth, they sought to merge imperceptibly into American life. Second, because of their background, they could make a unique contribution to American culture.
This book is a must for both the general reader and the specialists in social sciences and history. Anyone interested in learning how different waves of immigration have forged American culture will find this book a fascinating intellectual experience."
—Eric R. Kandel, winner of the 2000 Nobel Prize for Physiology/Medicine
"A landmark, a contribution not only to the character of searing human experience, but to the transformation of American society. No one can write—or read—American history without it."
—Daniel Bell, Henry Ford II Professor of Social Sciences, Emeritus, Harvard University
"This unique book—an inquiry in the nature and complexity of success—uses both wide-ranging interviews and quantitative methods to explore why so many of the children who fled Nazi persecution to the U.S. did so well in their careers."
—Lore Segal, author of In Other People's Houses, and Fellow, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences
"A fascinating story. Personal voices enliven the sophisticated research, making the subject accessible to lay persons as well as to academic readers."
—Gerda Lerner, historian and author of Fireweed: A Political Autobiography

First we had to negotiate ourselves out of the car park and into the Aires car park, which we did with much miming and sign language, our French not being as good as our poor German. Clermont-Ferrand, we discovered, is Michelin tyre city. The head office and an enormous factory were situated just next to our camp spot.

Wonder why the County and City recycling program is in flux?Posted Wednesday, January 14, 2009, at 9:14 AM
Here is a good look at the turmoil going on in the recycling industry and why the outlets have disappeared. http://www.packagingdigest.com/article/C...
We are using most of our recycled paper and cardboard in our garden or in our wood stove.
Plastic is just as bad, if not worse. Regrettably when the price of oil goes down, so does the value of recycled plastic. How can you win?

I'd like to pop up a login box when a user attempts to access a protected web page rather than redirecting to a login page.
I want to do this using MVC and jquery but not the ms ajax scripts. All the pages use the same master page and I'm using formsauthentication. I have the login pop-up working when the user clicks on a login link on the page, the problem is when they click on a link going to a protected page I get re-directed to the login page.
I was thinking that maybe I could trap the redirect to login but I'm guessing that this wont be possible since the redirect will have happened by the time the client script runs the check? Other possibilities which feel a bit clunky are to trap the page unload function or all the links on the page and then check them.
Has anyone done this or do you have any suggestions on how to go about it?

Shrine of the Black Madonna
in Christianity
What started out as a Congregational Church in the 50's morphed into the Shrine of the Black Madonna in the late 60's in Detroit, MI. Led by Albert B. Cleage, (a.k.a. Jaramogi Abebe Agyeman).
The Shrine of the Black Madonna as an important center for black theology and political power would grow to become one of the biggest and most influential churches in America for African Americans emphasizing black interpretations of the bible while remaining true to some traditional Protestant teachings.
Its focus was Black Christian Nationalism (BCN). In its 60 plus years of existence, The Shrine of the Black Madonna has been a pillar of strength in the black community by way of education, outreach, social service programs, and organization of black-owned businesses.
The Shrine of the Black Madonna has temples in Detroit, MI., Atlanta, GA., Houston, TX., and Beulah Land located in Calhoun Falls, SC. Joining us tonight for discussion of this historical black church and movement is the second Holy Patriarch of the "Shrine of the Black Madonna" since its existence - Jaramogi Menelik Kamathi!

LivingEden: The Return of the Black Madonna
in Spirituality
" Today the Black Madonna is returning. She is coming, not going, and she is calling us to something new (and very ancient as well). The last time the Black Madonna played a major role in western culture and psyche was the twelfth century renaissance, a renaissance that the great historian M.D. Chenu said was the "only renaissance that worked in the West." [2] It worked because it was grass roots. And from this renaissance was birthed the University, the Cathedral, the city itself. She brought with her a resacralization of culture and a vision that awakened the young. In short, it was the last time the goddess entered western culture in a major way." from an article "The Return of the Black Madonna: A Sign of Our Times or How the Black Madonna Is Shaking Us Up for the Twenty-First Century" by Matthew Fox
This show will look at 12 gifts the Black Madonna archetype is awakening in us and why she is so important for the twenty-first century. We will also connect her up to the Queen of Death archetype from the 13 moon oracle by Ariel Spilsbury. This is another great sequence to Simone Matthews interview and her World Tour awakening us to the sacred ancient wisdom.

ECO575 and 4" housing help (H99ICAT/Nora)
I've been reading this forum like mad and have learned a lot in the last few weeks, however, I'm still confused about something.
We are in CA and want to have 4" recessed LEDs for our new construction 9-ft high kitchen. I looked at the H99ICAT cans at Home Depot and they have a Title-24 sticker on them, but they have an Edison base. The H99ICAT specs also indicate that they are Title-24 compliant. So here are my questions:
1. I thought Title-24 would require a GU24 base? Or are these Title-24 because they only support low wattage bulbs? (IOW that the wattage isn't high enough to support incandescents higher than 40W) I have a call into the city about whether they would approve these or not.
2. Even if these are allowed, would it be better to go with the GU24 base (such as the Nora GU-24 can)? I know the ECO-575-GU24 bulb would be a bit more expensive and/or harder to find, but I'm thinking about what would be good for the future.
3. A more basic question which I don't get. With both the CR4/CR6/ECO575 bulbs + cheaper can combo, why would anyone want to buy the more expensive LED housings unless they were required by code? The ECO575 seem to be pretty good and also much cheaper.
1. The "AT" means "air tight". If I recall correctly, Title 24 requires AT and IC (insulation contact) rated cans. For most rooms, you can then either have high efficacy (approved fluorescent or LED), or can use incandescent with a dimmer. For bathroom, any incandescent has to be on an vacancy sensor (automatic off, manual on). For kitchen, most of your lights will have to be high efficacy, which also means that someone cannot pull them out and put in incandescent bulb. For fluorescent cans, you will see that they have the pin connectors. GU24 cans are NOT APPROVED for CFL, but are allowed FOR THE PRESENT for approved LEDs -- this is because the LED offerings are still developing.
2. For the kitchen, it will have to be fluorescent (tubes or pin-type socket, not CFL screw-in), or approved LED with a non-screw connection. This can be some funky vendor-specific connector, but I would steer clear of those and get GU24 cans. I put 18 of these (6" not 4") in my kitchen. For the living room, I used screw-in, even though I'm using LEDs there also -- just more versatile with more offerings.
Note the the adapters that convert a screw in to a GU24 are NOT RECOGNIZED by Title 24 -- gotta be a GU24 socket wired in, if it is something that has to pass that part of Title 24.
3. The others look different, and are available in other color temperatures than 2700K. A pretty good competitor would be the equivalent Sylvania LEDs, which are 3000k if you want it a bit whiter.
I can't remember right now, but some 4" GU24 cans (Elko?) have the socket on an adjustable bracket, and some (Nora) have it affixed to the top of the can. If the wire pigtail on the CR4 were 1/2" shorter, or I had larger hands, I would not have been able to get the CR4 installed in the Nora can. For that reason, I recommend the Elko one.
"Approved" means on the official CA list in the case of LEDs, or designed in certain common/standard ways for fluorescent.
Thanks for the quick reply attofarad (love the name too!)
Ok, so you confirmed what I was thinking. It looks like I should go with the Nora/Elco GU24 lighting at least in the kitchen. I guess Halo could put the "Title 24" label and certification on their Edison base housing because it is "Title 24" compliant everywhere but the kitchen?! IOW, other rooms simply require AT/IC housings but kitchens and bathrooms have the addition non-screw type base requirement?
The other quirky thing is that Nora doesn't mention anywhere that their 4" GU24 can is Title 24. Is there a reason for that? You would think they would want to highlight that.

Is it possible to disassemble this battery pack to obtain 3 single batteries? I don't need the protection IC. The thing is that I'm in need of a 2000mAh lipo battery but they are out of stock.

Hey guys,
I met a girl a while ago who loves mead. But she told me it's so hard to find mead in stores, and it's way too expensive. So i thought: I'm a brewer, I can solve that problem! Anyhow, i made my first 5L test batch of mead yesterday. But only I was not smart enough to check for recipes before i started, so I am now quite curious if I did well. Hereby I ask you fellow mead brewers to check my recipe and point out if there is something missing or done wrong! It's an apple-cinnamon mead.
My recipe:
1: I boiled 2L of water, steeping 2 bags of earl grey tea and 3 cinnamon sticks.
2: Removed the teabags.
3: Added 900 grams of flower honey.
4: Removed from heat and added 1.5L of pure apple juice, and 1.5L of apple juice with added vitamine C (I've read somewhere this improves the fermentation or something?)
5: Tossed the lot onto the yeastcake of an 11% tripple I kegged earlyer, including the 3 cinamon sticks.
6: Added about 1 teaspoon of cream of tartar and 1 teaspoon of yeast-nutrient.
7: Took a picture 1 day later.
Thanks in advance!
That sounds like a pretty good plan, though it may be a little heavy on the cinnamon.
I am not aware that vitamin C provides any benefit in fermentation.
Now do you have melomel, or apfelwine? Its all semantics, I bet that will taste good. Ken Schramm did a mead interview for "The Jamil Show" which is really good and gives all the basics. I also read his book which is worthwhile.
I'll concur with Medsen. Though I'd have thought that you might want to check the tolerance of the yeast, because with a gravity of 1.080, any yeast "worth it's salt" is gonna ferment that dry as hell. So you may want to think of either another 454g/1lb of honey to make it stronger (and possibly aim for some residual sugars) or ready for back sweetening once the brews finished.
The vitamin C a.k.a. ascorbic acid, is actually in the AJ as a preservative. Luckily, it's one that doesn't affect yeast in the same way the likes of sodium benzoate do. Plus it has the added benefit that the AJ producer/seller can say "with added vitamins" so the mug punters buy it all the quicker. It might mean that the AJ has been pasteurised - heating degrades ascorbic acid quite quickly.
"What the large print giveth, the small print taketh away". Tom Waits.Oh, and here's some blog stuff!
Great first on the fly recipe. I agree with all the comments, the cinnamon might be powerful by the end. I would also echo fatblokes comment on extra honey. 1.080 will ferment really dry. You can use this link to determine how much extra honey to add to get the ABV you want http://www.gotmead.com/index.php?opt...=745&Itemid=16
Although that will only give you a potential, you probably know how much alcohol your yeast can handle. Aim just above if you want it sweet.
I would ask your girl if she likes it sweet or dry. If it's for her, hers is the only opinion that matters in your little experiment.
Primary: Yoopers not so American Pale Ale
Secondary: notta :(
Kegged: Modified Janet's Brown Ale
Bulk aging: Winter Mead (melo-meth), NB Blue maple wine, and a Traditional mead.
On the shelf/in the fridge: Drank it all :(
Thanks for the comments! I'll look into the yeast, and maybe I'll try to remove the cinnamon sticks from the carboy soon before it overpowers. And I've just texted her 'Do you like it sweet or dry?' I hope she knows I'm talking about the mead xD

Bibi-Boehner Brouhaha: What Does It Mean

51st State reappears
An unnoticed side-effect of the Republican victory in the mid-term is the decision to launch the party's own foreign policy. John Boehner, Speaker of the House, has invited the governor of Israel, our 51st state, Benjamin Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress. This appears to be part of the continuing effort of members of Congress to deep-six negotiations between the P5+1 and Iran over the latter's nuclear program. The Congress has threatened to pass legislation increasing the sanctions against Iran.
The New Detectives: Dazed or Crazed?
We don't watch TV shows; we watch DVDs of TV shows on TV. As a result, we are working our way belatedly through a mess/mass of mystery/crime shows with detectives that are...that seem either dazed or crazed.
Last night it was "The Bridge," a girl detective in the El Paso police department is definitely dazed and obsessive (aspergers?). Finished with "Homeland" (season 3) where our heroine is crazed (bi-polar). Before that, puzzled over "True Detective's" "hero," an alcoholic with intuitions; more dazed than crazed.
Great News Day!...
...for schadenfreud.
NYTimes offers a check-list for most of what went wrong between Mayor de Blasio and the police. Revealing.... And it quotes police sympathetic to the mayor, though not his less than "A" performance, really almost "D" minus!
A Reality Check on NYC--UPDATE
A lot of ignorant analysis has been written about New York City's mayor, police, and race relations. The New York Times editorial page keeps huffing and puffing at everyone. The Mayor has eulogized the dead while police officers turn their backs. Traffic tickets are down, arrests are down, and alternate-side of the street parking regulations have gone by the boards. The current cold spell ("Arctic clipper" says the weather page) seems to be keeping protestors home, or maybe it's the journalists staying home and not covering them.

The Reason for watching Anime and Reading manga
Is the fact that you want to escape from reality to wonder world.
I know Anime/manga is fiction but some times i can't help but comparing my self to manga characters, like Naruto ( O_o ), luffy (O_O). Because some times when you grow up watching Anime some times (Actually all the time) when I was a kid I just wanted to be Naruto, to be Brave and be Great, and back at the time I didn't Have Friends (like Naruto)
And wanted to go on adventures and discover the world To be a pirate (Its because of Monkey D. Loffy). In The end there is a kid inside every man.
So who are you when you was a kid in Anime/manga?
If Topic Is Related please PM me. Thanks

Regardless of any problems, I think this question is actually pretty unique. It requires a bit of critical thinking. Well, sadly, I know who it would probably be today. Aida Kensuke from Neon Genesis Evangelion is probably the character a lot of nerdy types could be compared to. If I were going to say that I had to be like an anime character, I guess sometimes I feel like Kensuke. He's something like a Walter Mitty type in that he always wants to be something that he isn't. That's not necessarily the most flattering thing to say, but as someone who enjoys escaping from reality through fiction he probably is the most relatable.
As for when I was younger, I guess I always fancied myself as the hero of Kagaku Ninjatai Gatchaman, though I naturally knew the name of the series as Battle of the Planets. That was probably little more than childhood fantasy, though, with no basis in reality. I can't say I was ever that cool!

Urgh, I could really argue with that. I don't read manga because I want to "escape," I read it because I want to be entertained. :/
But anyways. When I was young, I remember really identifying with Sora from Digimon. I was still in that stage in my life where I tried to "cast" all my friends/family as characters in shows I'd watch. (I was the Pink Power Ranger, my sister was the Yellow Power Ranger, my dad was the Blue Power Ranger, etc.). I'd watch shows and actively try to determine who I'd "be." Sora is one I still remember, though, because her journey really stuck with me and helped me... is "mature" the right word? She's a character who cares deeply for the people around her, yet struggles to accept that part of herself. She's a tomboy, but there's also a feminine side to her that she's still trying to balance out. Also, she's shown to have issues with her mother, yet the relationship is ultimately one grounded in love, which I also strongly identify with. Doesn't hurt that she gets with Matt in the end, and he was my first animated crush. Kidding aside, Digimon is really important to me in a number of ways.
I got into manga in high school. Fruits Basket is one my favorites, and I couldn't have found it at a better stage in my life. I was nearing the end of junior year, already gearing up for potential colleges, and a lot of stuff was building up, one after the next. I was really stressed out, thinking about my future, thinking I had to get it all planned Right That Moment or my life would end in failure. And actually, there's a bit in Fruits Basket that deals with Tohru having similar feelings. Shigure's words to her, where he likened all she had to do to a mountain of laundry, really struck a chord with me. To this day, "you have to fold the laundry at your feet, first" is still kind of my own personal calming mantra whenever I have a lot on my plate.

Hmm. Honestly I suppose I connected most with little Sakura (the pre-ninja academy one) from Naruto. I was a kid that suffered from low self esteem, and Little Sakura with Ino was some of the stuff I connected to most in kids manga at a young age. Heck, most all the kid back stories of the Konoha Kids were something most anyone could connect with. That manga has long since lost that sadly.
But if you you're going on who I wanted to be most like when I was little? I guess Sailor Jupiter. I was a tall lanky kid and Jupiter never took that as a disadvantage. Now I rock that height.
Now in my twenties I relate way to much than I care to admit to some Moyocco Anno characters... Ai Yazawa ones too, but maybe that's because I'm in my twenties and find that Josei is perfect for me. ... maybe I have become more like Jupiter with her guy problems.

With all due respect to you, ZepysGirl, I actually do like to escape from reality time to time. However, I'm guessing that everyone likes these sorts of things for completely different reasons, so blanket statements really aren't the best way to go. As for comparing myself to characters, though, I'm reminded of another situation I was in when I was younger. Naturally, again, I didn't really think of an anime fandom back then per say.
Our local community college used to host a kid's science program. Just about everyone who went to it was ahead of the program, so a combination of boredom and negligence on behalf of the instructor led to us mostly goofing around. We would go outside and have make-believe Dragon Ball Z fights. Since I have an overly formal manner of speaking in real life, everyone always compared me to Vegeta.
As a funny aside, I had seen much further than the series, so our 'Goku' didn't realize why I would say things like "I will reluctantly aid you, Kakarot, but once this is over I will defeat you."

We used to play Samurai Pizza Cats in kindergarten, but since 'we' were a group a three girls, everyone always wanted to be Polly Esther. I usually got stuck playing Guido because I wore a blue jacket. Not that it mattered all that much. All we did was beat up old tires. It got old pretty fast.
Anyway, I didn't feel much of a connection to characters until I was like 15 or 16. Even then it was rare. I mean, I'm pretty much a geeky tomboy, but I also have some fairly 'cute' hobbies like knitting. There are not that many female characters out there like that. The first time I came across a character that made me think 'You think and act just like me! I totally get you!' was when I started reading Bleach. That character was Uryu Ishida, so I guess that means I'm a bit of headcase...

|I have to say I was a lot like Yotsuba, I loved drawing, and when she rented that one video over and over, that was exactly like me when I was little because I would rent "Tinytoons How I Spent My Vacation" over and over because it was so funny.

|Yotsuba is always seemingly filled with a lot of joy and wonder. I think a lot of us who are overcome with the ennui of being adults could really stand to learn a lot from her antics. She may seem odd from time to time, but I don't believe I remember a period of time where she truly stayed unhappy. That's something to be proud of.

I really connected with Sailormoon as a teenager because of Tsukino Usagi. We were practically identical.
All I wanted to do was play instead of study. I didn't want to eat vegetables; I wanted only sweets. I loved sleeping. I hated homework. I was irresponsible and was always late for school. If I got a bad score on a test, I'd hide it from my mom. I was a crybaby, a wuss, immature, and always in my own little world. But I still had a kind heart and I always tried to do the right thing. I never let outside evils influence me into wrong-doings. And I thought the magical girl thing was so amazing and I really wanted to be one.
........not that much has changed....though I'm a bit more cynical now.
