Thai Beef Noodle Salad
Not too long ago I go an email asking me if I had ever been to a Houston's restaurant and if I had tried their 'evil jungle noodle salad'. That was the first that I had heard of either but the description that I had been given of the salad sounded really good. It was described as containing: mango, avocado, cucumber, lettuce, cilantro and mint along with the noodles and that was all topped off with some lightly seared sliced beef. This salad is just jam packed with so many good things and with the mango and avocado it reminded me a little of the mango, avocado and grilled shrimp salad with a peanut dressing that I had made a while ago and enjoyed so much. After reading the description and a quick search for recipes I threw together this version of a Thai beef noodle salad that turned out really well. (Don't let the long list of ingredients deter you as this is one really nice salad.) Once again I was amazed by the creamy avocado and sweet and juice mango combination that really brought this salad over the edge. The combination of the classic western salad ingredients worked really well with the more Asian ingredients and flavours and the steak of course finished the salad off nicely turning it into a more of a light meal.

National Hospital Discharge Survey, 1984 (ICPSR 9171)
Principal Investigator(s): United States Department of Health and Human Services. National Center for Health Statistics
This survey, which is part of a continuing sample of hospital discharge records, supplies medical and demographic information used to calculate statistics on hospital utilization. The data collection consists of data abstracted from the face sheets of the medical records for sampled inpatients discharged from a national sample of nonfederal short-stay hospitals. The variables include information on the patient's demographic characteristics (sex, age, date of birth, race, marital status), dates of admission and discharge, status at discharge, diagnoses, procedures performed, source of payment, and hospital characteristics such as bedsize, ownership, and region of the country.

Scope of Study
Subject Terms: demographic characteristics, health care facilities, hospitalization, hospitals, illness, medical care, medical evaluation, medical procedures, medical records, patients, payment methods, treatment
Geographic Coverage: United States
Time Period:
- 1984
Universe: Short-stay, noninstitutional hospitals, exclusive of federal hospitals, which were located in the 50 states and the District of Columbia and were included in the National Master Facility Inventory of Hospitals and Institutions.
Data Types: clinical data, survey data
Data Collection Notes:
The data contain ampersands (&), dashes (-), and blanks.
Sample: All hospitals with 1,000 beds or more in the original universe of short-stay hospitals were selected with certainty in the sample. All hospitals with fewer than 1,00 beds were stratified, the primary stratum depending on size and geographic region. Within each of these 24 primary strata, the allocation of the hospitals was made through a controlled selection technique so that hospitals in the sample would be properly distributed with regard to type of ownership and geographic division. Sample hospitals were drawn with probabilities ranging from certainty for the largest hospitals to 1 in 40 for the smallest hospitals. A total of 407 hospitals in the sample were in scope and agreed to participate. The within-hospital sampling ratio for selecting sample discharges varied inversely with the probability of selection of the hospital. The smallest sampling fraction of discharged patients was taken in the largest hospitals, and the largest fraction was taken in the smallest hospitals. In nearly all hospitals, the daily listing sheet of discharges was the frame from which the subsamples of discharges were selected within the sample hospitals. The sample discharges were selected by a random technique, usually on the basis of the terminal digit(s) of the patient's medical record number--a number assigned when the patient was admitted. The sample represents 0.5 percent of the 37 million discharges in 1984.

Greenpeace activists protested this morning outside a pro-nuclear conference in Sandton where South Africa's Deputy President and the Minister of Energy were due to talk.
Greenpeace is protesting because, although nuclear power is still being hotly debated and is far from being approved in South Africa, here our leaders are proceeding as if nuclear was a done deal. Rather than embracing a safe and sustainable future of abundant employment and reliable renewable energy, they are focusing on prohibitively expensive nuclear power, and jeopardising our future in the process.

Hi! My name is Jake Richmond. Welcome to my comic!
I've been wanting to work on Rivius Obscura for a few years. I originally thought up the story back in 2003, but couldn't think of a way to turn my basic plot into a fleshed out story. I ended up using the story in an rpg I ran later that year. That was golden. My friends and fellow players Travis, April, Gabe, Nick and Woody took my basic plot and brought it to life with interesting characters that had petty rivalries, intricate relationships and strengths and weaknesses all their own. Our game lasted about ten sessions. Watching my friends play, I knew how I could build my story into the kind of comic I wanted it to be. Each of the primary five characters is a reflection of one of my friends, and a representation of the energy and creativity that they brought to the table.
Of course, a game is not a comic. It's taken me a few years to figure out how to take what I learned from that game and turn it into a coherent story. It also took me awhile to work up the courage to actually start drawing pages… but here we are!
Rivius Obscura takes place in the fictional world of Rivium, a shared world that Travis Brown and I created in high school, and the setting for Travis Browns published RPG the CrossRoads of Eternity. The world of Rivium is one of the first things I ever created, and finally getting to do a comic about it is... awesome. If you like this comic then you may want to check out the game. I did over 200 illustrations for the book, it and it looks pretty sweet!

The joy of Special Olympics attracts fans from all walks of life, including some household names. World class athletes like Michael Phelps and Nadia Comaneci and entertainers like Vanessa Williams and Joe Jonas support the Special Olympics vision that sports can pave the way for acceptance and inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities. We also have a few royal fans.

The future Princess of Monaco, Charlene Wittstock, is a loyal fan. A former Olympic swimmer, Charlene has held a number of swimming titles and records in South Africa during her professional career. She held a recent fundraising breakfast which raised funds to support Special Olympics, money that will help reach out to even more people with intellectual disabilities who want to participate. As an accomplished athlete herself, Charlene Wittstock understands the power of sports and is an avid supporter of Special Olympics.
But the future Princess also takes a hands-on approach to show her support. She recently competed for the first time in the Midmar Mile, the biggest timed open water swimming event in the world. Rather than swimming it competitively, Charlene decided to swim alongside Special Olympics athletes. First out of the water was Special Olympics South Africa athlete Craig Groenewald, closely followed by athletes without disabilities. Charlene Wittstock presented the awards to the winners and is looking forward to making this swim an annual event on her calendar. Looking ahead, Special Olympics plans to widen the field of competition beyond the 43 athletes who took part in this year's event.
Future princess of Monaco isn't the only "royal" fan of Special Olympics. Her Royal Highness Princess Lalla Amina of Morocco has been a staunch supporter for many years. She helped establish Special Olympics in Morocco back in 1995 and has been an enthusiastic force for the movement ever since. A sportswoman herself, Princess Lalla Amina is chairwoman of the Royal Moroccan Equestrian Federation and is also a member of the Special Olympics International Board of Directors. She has been a true champion for people with intellectual disabilities in Morocco, providing leadership aimed at building more acceptance and inclusion for the athletes of Special Olympics. Her nephew, King Mohammed VI, has also been a Special Olympics supporter and served as host of the 2010 Global Congress in Marrakech. Several members of the British Royal family, including the Queen and Prince Charles, have demonstrated their support for Special Olympics over the years.
Enthusiasm for Special Olympics is contagious and we are grateful to have so many loyal fans.

Carl Paladino's plan for a hotel, apartments and office space on the waterfront that was passed over six months ago has been brought back to life by Mayor Byron W. Brown.
Paladino and his business partners will construct a 14-story complex hosting a hotel, apartments, office space, spa, pool, banquet facilities and two restaurants on a prime piece of land owned by the Buffalo Urban Renewal Agency, Brown said Friday during his State of the City address.
Principals with Ellicott Development and Mosey-Castle Interests had bid to develop the Webster Block last year, but lost out to the Buffalo Sabres and team owner Terry Pegula.
The new concept, a $75 million development slated for a parking lot next to Templeton Landing at the Erie Basin Marina, has elements of what the group had proposed, Paladino said.
"They wanted both projects," Paladino said after Brown's speech at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center. "We worked out a deal for what we feel now is a better piece of land. It's a better location for what we want to do, the best downtown location for that type of project."
The 574,298-square-foot project, dubbed "The Carlo," will include 100,000 square feet of office space; a 138-room hotel; 32 apartment units; a 5,000-square-foot spa and fitness facility; a pool; a 8,600-square-foot banquet facility adjacent to a green roof; two restaurants, including one on the roof; a 602-space parking ramp and 40 spaces of surface parking.
A second phase of the project will feature one- and two-story buildings for retail and commercial use along the water's edge.
The development will be located on 5.5 acres between Erie Street, Wilkeson Way and Templeton Terrace.
Paladino said he is working with a potential office tenant but declined to identify it.
Word of the deal came as a surprise to the crowd at the convention center, but Brown said he thinks it will be approved in City Hall because of Paladino's Webster Block proposal.
"I feel very confident based on the fact that this project has been vetted significantly in public, and there's been a great deal of public process, that it will be able to move successfully through all of the other approvals that will be required," Brown said.
Common Council President Richard A. Fontana, who sits on the board of the Urban Renewal Agency, said he hadn't heard about the new project plans before the speech, but that they sounded exciting.
"We want to make sure there's enough market for these hotels," Fontana said.
The city's urban renewal agency can designate a developer for the site without putting it out to bid, Brown said.
"We are fast-tracking economic development in the city of Buffalo," Brown said. "This is our time in Buffalo, and we're going to capitalize on the time we're in right now."
The project will need the support of the Urban Renewal Agency's board, which is controlled by mayoral appointments, and the Common Council also will need to vote.
"I never heard of this project before today," said Daniel Sack, vice president of the Campaign for Greater Buffalo History, Architecture & Culture. "This is the way a lot of governments like to work, without any light around."
Sack said the city needs more transparency, even if it's a good project.
Brown said he hopes once the parcel is appraised, the developer will pay the site's full value.
Paladino expects to begin construction on "The Carlo" in 2014 and finish in late 2015. He said he expects to seek tax abatements.
The project is named in honor of Paladino's grandfather, Carlo Paladino, who brought his family to the United States in 1925.
Urban Renewal Agency personnel came to Paladino's group and said they wanted the project on a piece of their land, he said.
"We spent a lot of money getting this ready, so they're willing to give us preferred developer status," Paladino said. "We're elated that they came to us and wanted both projects, in effect."
The project would bring 138 hotel rooms to an area that will see 200 rooms at HarborCenter, the Sabres' development, and 96 rooms at a Courtyard by Marriott at One Canalside, the former Donovan State Office Building. The opening dates for the projects are staggered, but all are scheduled to be open by late 2015.
Robert D. Gioia, chairman of the Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp., which has approved the HarborCenter and One Canalside developments, welcomed the news.
"This is great critical mass for Canalside," Gioia said. "This partnership with the city and Canalside is building some excitement downtown."
Dottie Gallagher-Cohen, president and CEO of the Visit Buffalo Niagara, said that hotel occupancy in the city is high, but that marketing efforts are needed in order for demand to meet the growing supply.
"Now is the time to be marketing the destination," she said. "We have real challenges now because there is opportunity and better product and a need to drive demand."
The Webster Block's request for proposals process, which began in Brown's State of the City speech last year, has generated nearly a quarter-billion dollars in development on the waterfront when "The Carlo" is included, Brown said.
The Sabres and Pegula will spend $172.2 million to build two indoor ice rinks, a hotel, restaurant and parking garage across Perry Street from their home at First Niagara Center.

kde 4.4 with qt 4.6 is just...marvelous! In absolute the best DE in the world.
Phoronix: KDE Software Compilation 4.4 Beta 2 Released
In just a bit over a month should be the release of KDE 4.4, or more properly known now as KDE Software Compilation 4.4. A month and a half ago was the first beta release, but now KDE Software Compilation 4.4 Beta 2 is ready and has been released to the public this morning. The second beta to this desktop environment brings improvements to the Nepomuk semantic search, Plasma desktop, new desktop applications, and much more...
kde 4.4 with qt 4.6 is just...marvelous! In absolute the best DE in the world.
Damn, just as my laptop I use for testing various stuff died. I guess i'll just install this onto my production laptop. Even beta 1 worked very well so this one should be more than enough stable for me to use and help with the last of bug reports to help polish it up.
It should be named IDE. Impressive Desktop Environment.
Thanks a ton to all the developers.
4.4 Is the real deal! Just awesome!
Well, Beta 1 had some problems with desktop effects and notifications but those should be fixed now.
KDE SC 4.4 is proper serious business, and I can't imagine what I say to KDE SC 4.5 when I see it's new OpenGL2/3-KWin stuff
I like the option dialog where you can command KDE to adjust to CPU power and resolution.
What I absolutely do not like is that they fscked up enormously with the settings. It's like Windows! All options are now scattered all over the place!
But it doesn't stop there... The kicker menu size can no longer be horizontaly and vertically independant up- and downscaled! This sucks... This sucks enormously... But I hope KDE Raptor will finally see the light of day when KDE SC 4.5 hits the block. When KDE 4.3 was released they had almost finnished the forntend. The backend wasn't even started yet, alltough a Raptor dev told me the frontend was the heavy lifting and the backend was a lot less work. I assume they will use Nepomuk and Akanadi as backends...
I do like the netbook Plasma preview. Very nicely done.
Performance improvements are also awesome!
The design consistency with the KDE4 releases so far were pretty good: It's kind of a modular thing; you have a widget desktop design and a different GUI application windows design. Now that's all fscked up too!
GTK -> QT4 is also totally not consistent in design...
God... This might be a very sucking release!

New Haven is the second largest city in Connecticut, and searching for New Haven apartments for rent can connect you to the rich history and vibrant culture of this exciting academia-fueled town. Nicknamed the "Elm City," New Haven has a scenic location on the northern shores of the Long Island Sound and is home to beautiful trees and landscapes. Approximately 125,600 people live in New Haven, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, which allows residents to stay connected to their hometown without feeling like they're getting lost in the crowd of the United States' large cities.
English Puritans first settled in the area in 1638, but today, New Haven apartments for rent are home to all types of people. The city is historically significant for urban planning because in the 1640s, it was one of the first planned communities in the country, divided up into nine squares. The original idea can still be seen today in the layout of the city in the distinctive Wooster Square, East Shore, harbor front, Upper State Street and Science Park districts. Whether you seek culture, entertainment, education, research or architecture, New Haven apartments are the place to be. Top attractions here include Yale University, the New Haven Museum & Historical Society, the Yale Center for British Art, the Long Wharf Theater, Grove Street Cemetery and East Rock Park.
Although the cost of living in New Haven is somewhat high, New Haven apartments for rent are still very popular with people from all backgrounds. However, according to AreaVibes, accessing basic necessities like groceries, shopping, schools, parks, public transit, libraries and entertainment is very easy in New Haven, with more than 20 options located within a one mile radius. Here, you can expect to pay $3.97 for a gallon of gasoline, $2.06 for a gallon of milk, $2.02 for a dozen eggs and $1.75 for a loaf of bread
This town has a very diverse economy, and those who relocate to New Haven apartments can take advantage of the numerous opportunities available in the local landscape. Many industries prosper here, and according to the Hartford Courant, the top employers in town are the Stop & Shop Supermarket Company, Yale University and AT&T Connecticut, which each provide more than 7,500 jobs for New Haven residents. As the biotechnology capital of Connecticut, New Haven is also home to 39 of the state's 52 firms in this industry.
New Haven is best known as the home of Yale University, which is one of the most prestigious colleges in the entire world. According to U.S. News, this city-set 315 acre campus is an intellectual haven for the more than 5,000 undergraduate students who enroll in classes each year to help come up with some of the most pertinent, influential inventions and ideas of our time. If you're looking for other educational opportunities in the area, New Haven is home to the University of New Haven, Albertus Magnus College, Southern Connecticut State University and Gateway Community College. This makes New Haven apartments ideal for students.

More than 50 years ago, Thomas Merton warned that the pressure of modern life might distract us from the wisdom that makes work fruitful.
A page torn from an ancient woman's journal prompts this poetic meditation on brokenness and beauty.

There is a place beyond exhaustion, when asking 'What can I do to help?' is inadequate and burdensome. A commentary on how we can practice the art of generosity, to reach beyond the ease of asking towards the grit of doing.
Highlights of some of the most heartening work our executive editor has read this past week, including Tara Mohr's advice to women on taking in criticism, seeing the sacred in the mundane, engaging our prophets, and a behind-the-scenes glimpse into photos we chose.

Sometimes the most sacred experiences happen in the most mundane of places: in a big box store, after your spouse empties the litter box, or during an encounter with a taxi driver.
Our executive editor's weekly missive: a season of autumn invitations, a thoughtful essay on male friendship, confessions of an accidental feminist, a joyful contemplation on being Mormon in the modern world, and an unexpected moment of generosity.
With the political season in full swing, a reminder that the great prophets were courageous, outrageous people who railed against the powers-that-be. And a poem by Mary Oliver.
How many of us are ready to step into the gaze of someone — including ourselves — who sees us as we really are?
Our executive editor rounds up things seen and unseen — from poetry and trees to anger and rhythm.

A young man's humorous, joyful, and reflective contemplation about being Mormon, leaving Utah for a Radiolab internship in New York, and developing an evolving identity for himself. A profound and startlingly honest portrait of modern faith.
When life grabs you by the scruff of the neck, how do you cope with the stress and anxiety? A column on the art of reassuring oneself that all will be well.
Anger is something many of us try to deny. Rather than quelling it, what if we were to use it as an animating force for personal transformation and social change?
Poets and philosophers may be the mystics of our day, bridging the two worlds and bearing witness to seen and unseen.
What you might've missed: a simple video, a helpful list, a timely perspective, and a meditative essay on people and place.

Washington, DC -- Jim Boeheim's long and athletic 2-3 zone has Syracuse back in the Final Four.
And in their last year in the Big East, the Orange cut down the nets on the home floor of their most bitter rival.
Michael Carter-Williams filled the stat sheet with 12 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, three steals and two blocks in Syracuse's 55-39 win over Marquette in the East Regional final at the Verizon Center.
It's the Orange's first trip to the Final Four since 2003, when they won the national championship.

Hornets Potential Free Agent Targets
By Jeff Martin
This off-season was already one of the most important in the 24-year history of the Hornets franchise. From dealing with life after trading a superstar, to finding an owner willing to keep the team in New Orleans, the organization faced a myriad of questions that had every aspect of the teams future in the air. But after a string of good fortune, it could also prove to be the best off-season in franchise history, specifically after the team landed the No. 1 overall pick in the 2012 NBA draft and the rights to select super-prospect Anthony Davis. They also will be able to double-back in the drafts top-10 and select another potential impact player with tenth pick acquired from the Clippers in the Chris Paul deal.
Another major string of pivotal decisions that loom for Hornets general manager Dell Demps is what moves will be made this year in free agency. With 9 players under contract for next season, and 2 more probably coming in the draft, the Hornets could sign up to 7 free agents during the signing period. Some will invariably be minimum salary camp bodies, but a good number will be called upon to play an important role relative to the composition of this team. The Hornets currently only have $35.5 million tied up in salary, with the salary cap near $58 million. But after accounting for the likely resigning of Gordon and the imminent signing of Anthony Davis and his draft class mate, the Hornets will have significantly less than the $22 million in current cap space to target potential free agents, though enough room to make an impact.
Here are a few players I feel the Hornets could take a look at and some of the pros and cons of these players as it pertains to the Hornets:
Kevin Garnett- Age: 36, Power Forward/Center 6'11 253 lbs (Celtics) *unrestricted
WHY: Garnett brings instant toughness, championship mettle, and leadership to any team he signs with this summer. Monty mentioned how the likes of David West and Willie Green were sorely missed as leaders in that locker room and Garnett certainly would bring that. Aside from the wealth of intangibles, Garnett even at 36, can still be productive on the court, averaging 19.9 points and 10.8 rebounds throughout the Celtics' current playoff run. Where it makes most sense for the Hornets is how he potentially fits with the future face of the franchise, Anthony Davis. Garnett is someone the 19 year old Davis constantly mentions when asked who he aspires to be like (rightfully so), and what better example to learn to be like Garnett, then from the man himself.
Why Not: Garnett made 21.2 million dollars last season, which would have been 1/3 of the Hornets entire payroll. While he wont command that type of money this time around, he still wont be cheap and might be too big of a cap hit for a team to absorb, especially a young team looking to fill a number of holes on the roster. And although Monty's reputation as a head coach is growing and he and the Hornets have some momentum brewing, Garnett will likely want to play for a proven contender at this stage of his career.
Patrick Mills- Age:23 Point Guard 6'0 185 lbs (Spurs) *restricted
WHY: A personal favorite of mine as he was instrumental in winning my fantasy basketball league championship game with his 34 point, 12 assist, 5 rebound performance in the Spurs' regular season finale. Mind you, it was against an defensively inept Warriors squad, but he scored 61 points in his 2 starts, and it showed what he is capable of if given minutes. Mills is limited defensively but according to Spurs coach Greg Popovich, he is a very heady player, having played all over the world, including with the Australian national team. Although he's restricted, he'll never play much with Tony Parker in San Antonio for the foreseeable future, and after making just $300,000 last year, he conceivably could be signed away with a manageable contract. Mills could be a poor man's Steve Nash at his ceiling and at the very least could be a designated 3-point threat for the Hornets, as he shot 43% from downtown last season. That could be a welcomed skill set, especially if Marco Belinelli walks in free agency.
WHY NOT: The Hornets already have one prospect point guard in Greivis Vasquez and probably wouldn't be willing to take on two. Mills also is on the smaller side, listed generously at 6'0 185 lbs, and like noted above he is limited defensively, which could keep him from ever seeing the court on a Monty Williams coached team.
Ersan Ilysova- Age:25, Power Forward/Small Forward 6'10, 235 lbs (Bucks) *unrestricted
WHY: Ilyasova finished second to Ryan Anderson in the most improved player award this past season after averaging 13 points and 8.8 rebounds a game for the Bucks. One of the more efficient players in the league, Ilyasova shot close to 50% from the field while knocking down 45% of the 112 3-pointers he took. Expect his scoring numbers to be even better next season as he continues to refine his offensive game and will not be playing alongside the black hole that is Monta Ellis. It would take a good bit of the Hornets cap space to sign him, but at his age and skill set, that may be a gamble worth taking for Dell Demps and Co.
WHY NOT: Ilyasova may have played his way into a contract the Hornets might not want to take on and the Demps may be scared away by the numbers. Although Ersan can play some small forward, the Hornets also could potentially have a gluttony at the power forward position pending the selection in the draft at 10 and Carl Landry's free agent destination, and may want spend dollars elsewhere.
Anthony Randolph- Age:22 Power Forward, 6'11, 225 lbs. (T'Wolves) *restricted
WHY: He's restricted, but on a Tinberwolves team who has enough youth and will eventually have to pay Ricky Rubio and Nikola Pekovic, and he may be able to be signed away with a decent offer sheet. Randolph has above average athleticism, runs the floor well, and has been productive when given time, averaging 17.4 ppg,10.4 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 2.2 blocks per 36 minutes last season. He's efficient, young, and could be a good front court option off the bench for Monty Williams.
WHY NOT: Randolph's playing time has been consistently inconsistent in his 5 years since entering the league out of LSU and it has to be a concern that no coach (he's played for 4 since he was drafted) trusted him enough to give him consistent minutes depite the fact his teams are usually non-contenders. And again, the number of power forwards that could potentially be on the Hornets roster could discourage the signing of Randolph, who doesn't play much center.
Nicolas Batum- Age:23, Small Forward/Power Forward, 6'8, 200 lbs, (Blazers) *restricted
WHY: Monty said he wanted length and scoring in his post lottery interview and Batum could provide both, along with play the type of defense Monty loves from his players. Batum, who is a 39% 3-point shooter, averaged 14 points, 6.1 rebounds and 2 assists last season and routinely covered the opposing teams best wing players. Batum would fit well with the Hornets, especially if Ariza is moved in the offseason and could slide into the starting small forward spot, giving the Hornets the longest 3-4 combination in the league.
WHY NOT: Not too much to say negatively about Batum fitting in with the Hornets basketball wise other than the fact that he is a restricted free agent and the Trail Blazers would likely match any reasonable deal the Hornets would offer.
Willie Green- Age:31 Shooting Guard, 6'3 201 lbs (Hawks) *unrestricted
WHY: Have you ever had that high school coach who always brings up how some guy 10 years ago did everything right and was the epitome of what he wanted in a player? If you have ever heard Monty speak, you know Monty LOVES this guy and what would he would bring to the team on and off the court. Green shot 47% from the field and 44% from 3 in his reserve role for the Hawks last season.
WHY NOT: If the Hornets resign Marco Belinelli and Eric Gordon, there may not be many minutes for Green, who will be 32 when next season begins.
Spencer Hawes a versatile big man, Goran Dragic, the point guard the Hornets traded for in the original CP deal and Jordan Hill, who was a rumored trade target this season before the deadline, are also free agents whom the Hornets could target and would make some sense in New Orleans.
I would not be suprised if Green returns.....

Formally known as WhoDatMan504
Garnett... really? Not even worth mentioning.
"Hornets means nothing." - Tom Benson
Garnett makes the most sense IF we could add him, but the odds of him wanting to finish his career here are slim to none. KG doesn't want to mentor, he wants to win.
Could see Monty and Dell really making a hard push for Batum. Monty is familiar with him from his time in Portland, and he could be coached up to provide the defense that Ariza brings PLUS some great offense at the position. It would take a nice chunky contract for the Blazers not to match though, and Nola would have to find a deal to move Ariza.
Also really like the Patrick Mills idea, hadn't thought of him before. That would free up that #10 pick to be used for another position. I think we re-sign Landry and Belinelli signs with another team. I also like Vasquez as the starter for his pass-first mentality to dish it out to the scorers, and Jack can come off the bench as the scoring 6th man guard, his specialty.
Okafor / Smith/ Ayon
Davis / Landry
Batum / Aminu
Gordon/ Jack/ Henry
Vasquez/ Mills
...who to use the 10th pick on in this situation?? hmm... well Smith might be better suited as a back-up PF, so maybe that leaves Landry going elsewhere. And with the 10th pick chose Tyler Zeller, a true Center who's mature and ready to contribute now at a high level.
Okafor / Zeller
Davis / Smith/ Ayon
Batum / Aminu
Gordon / Jack /Henry

If we ever get a longballs chance to get Ilyasova, we should take it and run with it. He will be a great addition to our lineup, we can go big with him at the 3 and go small at the 4 (UNIBROW at the 5).
Ilyasova is a very heady kinda-player, his J will spread the floor for EJ and he crashes the board pretty well. He makes smart plays (in all the games ive seen the bucks play), he is easily my favorite player on that team.
I wouldn't mind the Hornets chasing any of the following:
PG: Dragic, Mills, Augustin
SG: Beli,
SF: Batum, W.Chandler
PF: Ilysova, Landry
C: Hawes, McGee

I wouldn't mind getting Hawes if we don't get Zellers or Leonard. Also, it would be pretty great to land either Batum or Dragic.
I want Patty mills in a Hornets uni every day, and twice on game day.
Why we havent made a play for him yet is beyond me. He is going to be another Vashon Leonard.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Fricking Illysova. I'm one of the biggest protesters to Davis at the 5 (think he would make much better 4 with spot up minutes at 5) but I would be ok with it if it brought in this guy. He is the truth.
Free agency does not start until after the draft, right?
If that is the case, then FA will have no impact on the draft.
I want Batum, but sadly he is a RFA, which sucks big time. I want younger players, so i wouldn't want Willie Green back, he is a good person, but lets be real, he doesn't fit something we need, I want Lowry or Budinger.
New Orleans Pelicans-Seattle Seahawks-Atlanta Braves-Anaheim Ducks
RIP HunnyB
This fits HunnyB/FlyGirl so well- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyzTiSEfM00
I think you can sign these three guys without having to break the bank. Dragic, Jordan Hill, and Batum. Let Landry Walk and trade Ariza.
Jackie Macmullen (someone on CSN-New England) supposedly talked to Doc Rivers and asked if KG would return. He apparently said he WILL return without listening to offers from other teams. No video proof of the interview but she said it in a pregame Vs. Heat.
I got this info off of RealGM Celtics forum.
I have to respectfully disagree with this.....Garnett has ALWAYS taken guys under his wing. Dude is the ultimate teammate. He helped develop Big Baby and Perkins into good solid starters. Garnett gets a lot of flack for being a bully to players, mainly LeBron, but when it comes to his team he's all about it. I know he's most likely going to want to retire in Boston (especially if the beat they Heat tonight & get another chance at a ring) but if he were to come here in FA he will make out team better on the floor and in the lockeroom. Everybody keeps saying how Davis can possibly be the next Garnett....imagine actually having the man there to TEACH him to be like him or be better. Garnett could do for Davis what Robinson did for Duncan.
I know he's not coming here he loves Boston too much but I would be happy if he came to NOLA even if its just for a yr or 2.

Batum is going to be the worst contract in the NBA. You do not want to be a part of that mess.
I wish Batum averaged 6.1 boards a game. Try 4.6. Crashing the boards isn't his biggest strength. I suppose Aminu would present a nice counter-balance there.
If we could move Ariza, I'd be fine with offering Batum a reasonable deal. No more than eight or nine million a year. If Portland matches, so be it. They may not, however, if we offer quickly and they decide they'd rather pursue other options first. Their relationship has soured, after all.
If we don't offer him a deal, I think it will say a lot about Batum given Monty's prior involvement with him. On the surface, though, he seems like a great fit for our team. I think he has the potential to be a very good role player on a championship caliber team.
Batum would be a great complimentary player long-term. 4 years 32-36 million is the most I would do. Big upgrade at SF. His defense needs work, but again, he was usually guarding PGs and the other teams best perimeter player so that does skew his numbers a bit. Hopefully Monty could improve his defense, but you never know.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
I'm torn on Batum. On one hand, I think with him at his best along with EG10 and AD a decent center and Point we're serious contenders, pretty much everything Houston thought Ariza would be.
On the other hand he does has striking resemblance to Ariza IMO and I think his scoring numbers have been slightly inflated due to playing on teams that arent very good. Not to mention we could just waste our time chasing him and just be matched.

"I don't know if people know I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"
Nobody likes Randolph as another front court option off the bench huh?? I love his per minute production and his potentially manageable contract...
And I appreciate that WhoDatMan504!
The Blazers were 54-28, 50-32, and 48-34 before this year's 28-38. Some pretty damn solid teams. Not seeing the inflated numbers on a bad team thing at all here.
If we really wanted Batum, the best way to go about it is to offer him immediately. Portland said earlier in the offseason they had hoped Batum would wait for them to sign some other pieces before re-signing him (They have his bird rights, meaning they can go over the cap to re-sign him). Batum, however, said he'd sign the first offer he got if it was to his liking. This will force Portland's hand. Do they want him over other potential free agents? It's a toss up, but I'm guessing we have a slightly better chance of signing him than missing out given the way Batum feels about Portland at the moment.

I think he has all the tools to be a top of the line defender. It's consistency that he's struggled with. Theoretically, Monty could help with that. If he signed with us, given the role he would play, I could see a reasonable stat jump that might surprise some people. He just feels like a great fit here.
I'm not sold on Batum. Is he an upgrade to ariza? Ariza has excellent defense with 1.7 steals per game. Ariza's rebounding is slightly better and his assists per game is over 3 vs Batum which is just over 1.
Batum is a decent defender who can block shots. He is a very good 3 point shooter and ft shooter as well. He is clearly better than ariza on offense. He is younger and could fit well in our system. I think giving him 3 year deal for 24 million is a great deal for him. We would need to trade Ariza for this to work.
I want to see us resign Kaman and Gordon. Let Landry go. Draft Kendall Marshall, Rivers, or Tyler zeller or Meyers Leonard. We should keep Okufor if we can't sign Kaman. Davis will automatically make the whole team better.
Imagine: PG: Kendall Marshall, Vasquez
SG: Gordon, Jack, Henry
SF: Batum, Aminu
PF: Davis, Landry
C: Kaman, Smith, Ayon

The Fund is not a complete retirement program and there is no guarantee that the Fund will provide sufficient retirement income to an investor. The JPMorgan SmartRetirement Funds are target date funds with the target date being the approximate date when investors plan to start withdrawing their money. Generally, the asset allocation of each Fund will change on an annual basis with the asset allocation becoming more conservative as the Fund nears the target retirement date. The principal value of the Fund(s) is not guaranteed at any time, including at the target date. To achieve its strategy, the Fund may invest in other underlying collective trust funds and exchange-traded funds, so the Fund's investment performance is directly related to the performance of the underlying funds. The investment objective of an underlying funds may differ from, and an underlying funds may have different risks than, the Fund. There is no assurance that the underlying funds will achieve their investment objectives. International investing involves increased risk and volatility due to possibilities of currency exchange rate volatility, political, social or economic instability, foreign taxation and differences in auditing and other financial standards. The Fund may invest a portion of its securities in small-cap stocks. Small-capitalization funds typically carry more risk than stock funds investing in well-established "blue-chip" companies since smaller companies generally have a higher risk of failure. Historically, smaller companies' stock has experienced a greater degree of market volatility than the average stock. The Fund may invest in securities that are below investment grade (i.e., "high yield" or "junk bonds") that are generally rated in the fifth or lower rating categories of Standard & Poor's and Moody's Investors Service. Although these securities tend to provide higher yields than higher-rated securities, there is a greater risk that the Fund's share price will decline. There may be additional fees or expenses associated with investing in a Fund of Funds strategy. Real estate investing may be subject to a higher degree of market risk because of concentration in a specific industry, sector or geographical sector. Real estate investing may be subject to risks including, but not limited to, declines in the value of real estate, risks related to general and economic conditions, changes in the value of the underlying property owned by the trust and defaults by borrower. The underlying funds may use derivatives, which are instruments that have a value based on another instrument, exchange rate or index. In addition, the Fund may invest directly in derivatives. Derivatives may be riskier than other types of investments because they may be more sensitive to changes in economic and market conditions and could result in losses that significantly exceed the Fund's or the underlying Funds' original investments. Many derivatives will give rise to a form of leverage. As a result, the Fund or an underlying fund may be more volatile than if the Fund or the underlying Fund had not been leveraged because the leverage tends to exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of the Fund's or the underlying Fund's portfolio securities. Derivatives are also subject to the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. The use of derivatives for hedging or risk management purposes or to increase income or gain may not be successful, resulting in losses, and the cost of such strategies may reduce the Fund's or the underlying funds' returns. Derivatives also expose the Fund or the underlying funds to the credit risk of the derivative counterparty. Asset allocation/diversification does not guarantee investment returns and does not eliminate the risk of loss.
1Please refer to the prospectus for additional information about cut-off times. The S&P Target Date Index Series (each, an Index) reflects exposure to various asset classes included in target date funds driven by a survey of such funds for each particular target date. These asset class exposures include U.S. large cap, U.S. mid cap, U.S. small cap, international equities, emerging markets, U.S. and international REITs, core fixed income, short term treasuries, Treasury Inflation Protected Securities, high yield corporate bonds and commodities and are represented by exchange traded funds (ETFs) in the index calculation. The original inception date for the Indexes was September 25, 2008 (the Original Inception Date), except the S&P Target Date 2050 Index (the Index), which was May 31, 2011. Subsequently, Standard & Poor's (S&P) decided to provide return information for periods prior to the Original Inception Date. Return information for the Indexes, except the S&P Target Date 2050 Index, is now available beginning from May 31, 2005. Effective March 1, 2010, S&P modified the method used to calculate Index levels and returns for each Index. Prior to March 1, 2010, each Index was reconstituted once per year on the last trading day of May, with effect on the first trading day of June. Reconstitution is the process whereby asset class weights are established for the upcoming year. Effective March 1, 2010, each Index is reconstituted on the same schedule. However, the Indexes are now rebalanced on a monthly basis. Rebalancing is the process whereby the asset class weights that were determined at the previous reconstitution are reestablished. This process takes place after the close of business on the last trading day of each month, with effect on the first trading day of the following month. The Index returns are calculated on a daily basis and will continue to be calculated daily. The performance of the index does not reflect the deduction of expenses associated with a fund or the ETFs included in the index, such as investment management fees. By contrast, the performance of the Fund reflects the deduction of the fund expenses, including sales charges if applicable. Investors cannot invest directly in an index. The performance of the Lipper Mixed-Asset Target 2040 Funds Index includes expenses associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management fees. These expenses are not identical to the expenses charged by the Fund. An individual cannot invest directly in an index. Total return assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions and reflects the deduction of any sales charges, where applicable. Performance may reflect the waiver of a portion of the Fund's advisory or administrative fees for certain periods since the inception date. If fees had not been waived, performance would have been less favorable. ©2015, American Bankers Association, CUSIP Database provided by the Standard & Poor's CUSIP Service Bureau, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

I was super excited when I got my band today... to be honest we had been paying on one from a local shop however I wasnt completly sold on it... so we figured lets give this one a try to see if I might like it better..... well I have already went to the store and got my refund... this ring is really impressive, the color is great....the weight is perfect... my sister said... how the word she thought of was timeless... it is classy, you and sophisticated.... I am going to pair it up with a 1/2 carat colorless round solitare ring..... I am dreaming of my big day to be able to wear it... If you are thinking about it go for it , you will not be sorry it is so beautiful
I bought this ring over a year ago to use as my wedding band and I just love it. It fit perfectly and is very sparkly. I get many wonderful comments on this ring.
The ring sparkles very beautifully; it's stunning without being gaudy. The .5 carat band is perfect for long and/or thin fingers. Mine gives the apperance an eternity band because the band of diamonds wraps around my finger nicely. I just purchased a second one so I can stack them with my 1 carat engagment ring. This size compliments my engagment stone!! Very happy and will highly recommend Overstock to friends looking for jewelry.
Before purchasing this ring, I read the reviews, so I was aware that some people received a ring with cloudy stones, and others didn't. I was SO hoping that I would get one with clear stones, but alas, I did NOT. So, I am returning the ring. Very disappointing since it would be gorgeous if not for the cloudy, milky stones.
The size of the stones matched perfectly to the stones on the band of my engagement ring, however, like others stated, the diamonds are cloudy - especially in sunlight. Inside the home, the ring might be passable but when I had the ring next to my e-ring, there was no comparision. It did not look good at all and I will be sending it back. If this were worn by itself, it would be very nice & pretty.
The wife loved it and it didn't break the bank. All good.
Very nice ring. However, I have decided to return and get the .75 carat instead. But this is a nice value.
Very dissatisfied with this purchase and wish I would have gone a different route in both the ring selection and use of Overstock. Within less than a month of my wife wearing the ring, one of the diamonds popped off the ring and is nowhere to be found. Because the wedding was in August and I purchased the ring in July, we are outside the 30 day return window. Even if we were within the 30 day window, Overstock would not have accepted the return due to a missing stone. There was no strenuous activity leading to a lost stone, and Overstock won't do anything to remedy the problem caused by its poor quality product. I would have been better paying more from a retailer with better customer service practices.
The ring is beautiful and very sparkly. Unfortunately the prongs sit up too high to wear with my engagement ring. But this ring is a great value.
I just received my ring and it is BEAUTIFUL! This is my wedding band for my upcoming wedding, I was hesitant at first to purchase without trying it on, but I was totally wrong! This was my first time ordering from overstock, and I must add the shipping was very fast, and the tracking feature is awesome! I don't think I will be able to take the ring off to wait for my wedding... LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
