Phoenix Suns
Alvin Gentry baffled by the slow-starting Suns
The Suns sit at 4-5 on the season as they get ready to face the Lakers on Friday night. They've shown flashes of progress and talent with a relatively new cast of players, but the problem is those moments have typically come when they are facing a double-digit deficit.
Head coach Alvin Gentry isn't sure what the answer is to avoid the slow starts, but he knows something has to change.
"I don't really know, I think what we're going to have to do is fake the score on the scoreboard and put us down 15 right at the start and then see if that will work," Gentry said Thursday. "I don't have an answer. I really don't. It's a mystery to me."
In their most recent loss to the Chicago Bulls, the Suns trailed by 14 points heading into the fourth quarter but then outscored Chicago 31-17 in the final period.
"It just seems like it clicks in once we get down 15 points or so, then we just start playing and playing like we would like to be playing at the start of the game," said Gentry. "We just have to keep trying to figure out how we can avoid those double-digit deficits early in the game."
The Suns have now trailed by double digits in eight of nine games this season, including all five games at home. The starting lineup has remained the same with Goran Dragic, Marcin Gortat, Michael Beasley, Jared Dudley and Luis Scola, but according to Gentry that's something that could change in the near future.
"I think we have to look at that," said Gentry. "I mean obviously if this is something that's going to be a constant than we want to eliminate fighting double-digit leads. I just didn't want to make rash judgments nine games or eight games into the season."
Gentry also emphasized that finding the right chemistry and the right rotation will take some time with nine of the 14 guys on the roster new this season.
"I think we still have to try to develop some consistency, and I don't think jerking guys in-and-out of the lineup is the way to do it," said Gentry. "So, we just have to take a good hard look, but if it's something that continues than obviously we'll maybe have to consider making some changes in the lineup."
What those changes might be no one knows for sure, and Gentry isn't willing to show his hand, either. He did say that he likes the second unit with Shannon Brown, Sebastian Telfair and P.J. Tucker and the energy they bring.
It will be a delicate balance that gets tested over the weekend when the Suns are forced to play two of the best teams in the league -- the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat -- on back-to-back nights Friday and Saturday.

Crabby Appleton
View In iTunesTo preview a song, mouse over the title and click Play. Open iTunes to buy and download music.
After departing from Curt Boettcher's various studio-based groups — the Millennium, Sagittarius, et al. — guitarist/vocalist Michael Fennelly struck out on his own. In 1969, Fennelly went to Thee Experience, a Sunset Strip club, where he met the members of Stonehenge, a blues-oriented group whose lineup included Casey Foutz (keyboards), Hank Harvey (bass), Felix "Flaco" Falcon (percussion), Phil Jones (drums), and an unknown guitarist/lead vocalist. Stonehenge were, at the time, being scouted by a friend of their manager's, Elektra A&R man David Anderle, who had told the band that — in order to get a record deal — they would probably have to replace their lead singer, as he didn't write songs and clearly wasn't up to par with the rest of the band. Members of Stonehenge and Fennelly hit it off and, as Fennelly's "To Claudia on Thursday," a Millennium single, was getting airplay in L.A. at the time, the band thought he might be the perfect collaborator. They took the idea to Elektra, who agreed, and they formally invited Fennelly to join the band. They soon changed their name to Crabby Appleton (the name of a villain in a cartoon which aired during the Captain Kangaroo Show in the '50s and '60s) and began recording their first album. The eponymous Crabby Appleton, produced by Elektra house producer Don Gallucci (from Don & the Good Times and Touch), was released in 1970. The band enjoyed some success with a hooky single, "Go Back," which peaked at number 36 in June 1970 after five weeks on the charts. Over the next two years, subsequent singles by the band failed to catch fire. The group's second album, Rotten to the Core, found the band stretching out in different directions, but it failed to connect with its intended audience, and the band decided to break up. In 1973, Fennelly moved to England and began to focus on a solo career. He released two solo albums — 1974's Lane Changer, produced by ex-Zombies bassist Chris White (the album also featured another Zombie, Rod Argent, on synthesizer), and 1975's Stranger's Bed, produced by Denny Bruce — though he never achieved the kind of success that everyone expected.

Michael BispingTRAINING: I'm training less these days, but smarter. I've been over training for far too long. A typical day is a 90 minute session in the AM and PM, focusing on different things each session, obviously. When and why did you start training for fighting? I've been doing martial arts since I was eight years old, but I started training for mixed martial arts specifically in summer of 2003. I had done kickboxing and jiu-jitsu for years, but I took it up as a career in 2003. I had a lot of jobs but I had never been happy in anything I did, so when I did this, it was the best thing I've ever done in my life – I've never been happier and so far things have been going really well. Accomplishments in amateur competition? 1995 Silver medal – world jiu-jitsu championships; 5 x British kickboxing champion; God knows how many times British Sport jiu-jitsu champion. Accomplishments in pro competition? Cage Rage Champion, Cage Warriors Champion, FX3 Champion, TUF 3 Champion, Coach on TUF9 and TUF14. Ranks in any martial arts styles: None, unless you count 73rd in World Ninja Games 1999 (lack of smoke bomb skills let me down) Favorite grappling technique: Triangle Favorite striking technique: Flying knee Do you have any heroes? I've got nothing for respect for the guys at the top of the chain – guys like Chuck Liddell and Georges St-Pierre, and guys like Shogun Rua – I admire his style and I think he's an exciting fighter. What does it mean for you to fight in the UFC? You know, before I fight I have the same ritual. I go and find a nice quiet little corner, I sit down, I close my eyes & think of the journey that I've been on. I think about when I used to sleep in my car and all the things that I 've been through to get to where I am today. All the sacrifices that I've made , the sacrifices that I'm still going to have to continue to make & the life that I want to give my children. I think about why I do this, and that gets me motivated, it gets me in the zone, and from there I don't want to get out of that zone. Did you go to college and if so what degree did you earn? I went for a little bit and then left. What was your job before you started fighting? I was an upholsterer, making furniture, when I switched to MMA. Before that, you name it, I've done it, but all the crappy jobs though, nothing too flamboyant. I was a slaughterman, builder, and laborer.

text: I don't think that KDE developers ignore their users. Sometimes to get rid of severe bugs, one just needs to stop depending on a foreign project. For example, by no longer using XScreenSavers, the KWin developer fixed a bug where KWin crashes with some Intel cards. They even made a poll to see if users will support the idea that KWin will soon have it's implementation for the screen lock that is incompatible with XScreenSavers! With the result being that only 2% of the voters claimed either they would complain or move to a different desktop.

Rays, Cobb set sights on sweep at Wrigley Field
Cubs call on lefty Wood, aiming for his first win since June 15
Eyeing their first win of the three-game set on Sunday, the Cubs will call on left-hander Travis Wood, looking to win his first game in almost two months.
Chicago, which dropped its first two games against Tampa Bay at Wrigley Field on Friday and Saturday, will hand the ball to Wood (7-9, 5.08 ERA) for the series finale.
Wood's last win came on June 15, when he beat the Phillies with eight scoreless innings. Since then, he's 0-4 with a 6.10 ERA in nine starts, having allowed 39 runs (33 earned) during that span. He did put together a quality start in his last outing, giving up three runs in six innings to the Rockies in a game the Cubs eventually won, 6-5.
On the other side, Alex Cobb (7-6, 3.52 ERA) will look to help the Rays sweep the series on Sunday, and he can tie the Rays' club mark for most consecutive road wins. Cobb is 5-0 over his last six road starts, leaving him one shy of the club record held by David Price (2010).
The only no-decision in Cobb's run came in his start against the A's on Monday, when he exited in the sixth inning of the Rays' 3-2 extra-inning loss. Cobb hasn't lost on the road since June 2 at Miami.
"It's tough to be 100 percent sharp every game," Cobb said. "Every pitcher in the league, what makes the good ones good is when they don't have their best stuff, they're able to battle and compete until deep in the game.
"It's what David [Price] did so well. He'd give up three in the first three innings and you still knew you were going to get six or seven innings out of him. That's a key when you have starts like I did in Oakland. You have to go deeper into the game, but also be able to compete."
Cubs: Turner to arrive this weekend, role up in the air
Jacob Turner, acquired from the Marlins on Friday, is expected to join the Cubs at Wrigley Field on Sunday, but manager Rick Renteria isn't sure what the right-hander's role will be.
The Cubs claimed Turner off waivers and sent Minor League pitchers Jose Arias and Tyler Bremer to the Marlins in exchange.
Turner was 4-7 with a 5.97 ERA in 20 games (12 starts) with Miami. He was in the Marlins' rotation from the start of the season until June 11, then made eight relief appearances. In his last three outings, all starts, he gave up eight earned runs on 19 hits and six walks over 14 2/3 innings.
Renteria couldn't project what Turner, 23, will do, although he most likely will be used out of the bullpen. The pitcher is out of options, and the Cubs will have to make a roster move when Turner arrives.
Rays: Myers starting rehab assignment
Wil Myers, who has been on the disabled list with a right wrist fracture since June 1, is scheduled to begin his rehab assignment Saturday night for Triple-A Durham against Buffalo (Blue Jays affiliate).
Rays manager Joe Maddon said the Rays have a week mapped out for Myers at Durham, pointing out that Myers will need some at-bats "to really regain his rhythm."
According to the rule for position players, Myers has 20 days to play in rehab games before he must rejoin the Rays or continue with Triple-A Durham, a possibility since Myers still has options -- but an unlikely one.
Maddon doesn't feel the Rays will be faced with that decision, because he doesn't think Myers will need any more than 20 or 30 at-bats to be ready.
Worth noting
• In Sunday's series finale, the Cubs will wear a throwback uniform from 1988, which was the year the team first played under the lights at Wrigley Field. The visiting Rays have developed a retro-inspired "faux-back" road uniform to participate in the throwback day as well.
• When Rays starter Jake Odorizzi batted eighth in the order against the Cubs on Saturday, it was only the ninth time an AL pitcher batted higher than ninth since Interleague play began in 1997. Rays manager Joe Maddon has filled out the lineup card on seven of those nine occasions. It's happened five times this season -- all of them Maddon's doing.

Status quo may be left in place for handling coal ash
Blog Entry:
November 20, 2012 9:00 AM | Author: SCOTT SUTTELL
The coal sector hasn't been on great terms with the Obama administration, but Forbes.com
that the White House "may acquiesce to the industry's concern over how coal ash would be regulated."
"While its environmental backers won't be happy, the president and the Environmental Protection Agency will probably opt to continue regulating that coal combustion byproduct as a solid waste, as opposed to a hazardous waste," according to the website.
The difference, Forbes.com reports, "is that solid wastes are allowed to be recycled and used in such things as cement and dry wall. A hazardous waste ruling would stigmatize that coal ash and would essentially dry up those secondary markets, which would also increase the amount of refuse that must be dispensed."
Forbes.com notes that Akron-based
FirstEnergy Corp.
last August closed a coal ash disposal site in Pennsylvania as its neighbors there had long complained that its presence created unhealthy conditions. It had been the nation's largest such site, covering 1,700 acres.
EPA "is feeling pressure from both industry and environmentalists," according to the website. "But the most politically feasible path is for the agency to finalize a rule that permits coal ash to keep its solid waste status while also requiring new disposal methods — a move that would be litigated by opponents, delaying its implementation."
For instance, the website says, coal ash now is discarded as a liquid that goes into large surface impoundments or as a solid that is placed into landfills. "EPA would like to see all such byproducts converted from 'wet ash' to 'dry ash' and buried in secured liners," Forbes.com reports.
Here to stay
The public seems to be coming around on fracking.
USA Today
that political obstacles to oil and gas production "are starting to fall away at the state and local levels as voters, elected officials and courts jump on the energy boom bandwagon."
Voters, the newspaper reports, "are rewarding local politicians who support production. Ballot measures are distributing potential tax windfalls broadly. And most state legislatures are focused on managing the economic and environmental consequences of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, so the drilling boom can speed up rather than slow down."
Ted Boettner, executive director of the liberal
West Virginia Center on Budget and Policy
, tells the newspaper, "Fracking is happening and it's not going to stop, so we have to take the high road of good regulation and taxes so communities are better off, not worse off, after it's done."
Kate Sinding, a lawyer for the
Natural Resources Defense Council
, says loopholes in federal law make it hard to stop fracking.
"A lot of traditional litigation tools are not available," she tells
USA Today
The ties that binds
that the
State University of New York at Buffalo
is shuttering a research institute opened earlier this year to study natural gas fracking "after potential conflicts of interest raised what the college's president called a 'cloud of uncertainty' over its work."
The Shale Resources and Society Institute is closed effective immediately, SUNY Buffalo president Satish Tripathi announced. A Buffalo nonprofit, the Public Accountability Initiative, said the institute's only report, issued last April, contained errors and didn't acknowledge "extensive ties" by its authors to the gas industry.
Bloomberg says the move "follows a decision last month by a gas industry group to cancel a Pennsylvania State University study of fracking after some faculty members balked at the project that had drawn criticism for being slanted toward industry."
Drilling companies, amid criticism that producing gas by fracking damages the environment, "are funding university research that at times reaches conclusions that counter the concerns of critics," Bloomberg notes.
Losing interest?
— the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design standard — might be losing some of its luster among business executives.
So writes
Columbus Business First
in a
based on a
new survey
of 700 corporate executives by
Turner Construction Co.
"The New York City-based contractor's Green Building Market Barometer report showed doing 'the right thing,' impact on a company's brand and operational cost savings as the top reasons executives committed to so-called 'sustainable' practices when deciding on construction of new buildings,"
Columbus Business First
However, executives' desire to have a LEED plaque on the wall "has fallen from 61 percent who expressed a 'very likely' or 'extremely likely' in 2008 to 48 percent in the survey taken earlier this year."

"The biggest news coming out of this workshop is word that a virtual Gallium3D driver is coming, which will allow Gallium3D to run within a virtualized environment. It's looking like there will be this Gallium3D driver that can run within a VMware guest virtual machine and then take advantage of the state trackers on the host machine whether it be providing hardware-acceleration for OpenGL, OpenGL ES, OpenVG, OpenCL, etc."
Meaning that there will also be Virtualbox support I assume, too, since this is a general Gallium3D feature applicable to anything? If so, why is VMWare specifically mentioned, and what about VBox?

Does the job Really no complaints with this product. Does the job, provides good protection for the phone, and helps to have the credit card slots for when I don't want to carry my purse everywhere. Only thing I didn't realize, was the lack of wrist strap that I would have liked to have, with the amount of concerts I go to. My fault, not theirs. Good product!

49ers vs Ravens. 5:30 on CBS. What are your plans for the game? Who do you think will win? What's your hope and guess for MVP? I'm going to a friends small gathering for wings and beer. I think the 49ers win. I hope Frank Gore gets the MVP, but I think if the 49ers win it will be Kaepernick. If the Ravens win, anyone but Ray Lewis will be fine with me.
Ready for the game and food/beer, I do like the NFL, but the hype for the 2 weeks leading up to the game get old...
Can anyone confirm the guy doing sign language knows it? I just saw him saluting and gesturing, but it didn't look like sign language during the National Anthem.
I assume every Cyclone is a Ravens fan tonight. GO K.O.!
National anthem was good, not spectacular but good.
One disadvantage of domed games is the lack of a flyover.
I can't root for Ray Lewis, sorry.
It looks like San Francisco is a little sluggish, can see it from when they came in the stadium
