Predicting improvement from Wilson, upset for Hawks
By Jim Moore
Last week I predicted the Seahawks would lose to the Cardinals 20-13, and they ended up losing 20-16.
As you know, if Russell Wilson had completed one of those many passes in the red zone, the Seahawks could have won 23-20.
Last Sunday's game is a reminder of how dumb it is to bet on NFL games – if Wilson completed one of those passes in the end zone, the Seahawks would have won and covered the 2 1/2-point spread, and over bettors would have won too because the over-under was 40 1/2.
As it was, Arizona and under bettors won. It was that close to going either way.
Tony Romo and the Cowboys' offense had little trouble with Seattle last season, but they could be due for a letdown after beating the Super Bowl champions in Week 1. (AP) |
The thing that's crazy is that I was perceived as a Seahawks hater simply because I picked against them. I just didn't like their chances with a rookie quarterback making his first start on the road against an above-average defense. Yet Wilson did better than I thought he would, much better.
Now the Seahawks come back to CenturyLink Field for the home opener against the Cowboys on Sunday. They're 3-point underdogs and I guess I understand why.
Dallas is coming off a big win over the Giants in the NFL's season-opening game. The Cowboys were impressive and offer weapons galore with Tony Romo, DeMarco Murray, Dez Bryant, Miles Austin, Jason Witten, DeMarcus Ware and Morris Claiborne among others.
My biggest concern revolves around the pass-rushing Ware, who could have his way with second-string left tackle Frank Omiyale if Russell Okung doesn't play.
Other than that, I feel like Wilson will play better this week at home than he did on the road. Why? Do I have some sort of football sabermetrics I can reference as rationale? Heck no, I don't have any of that stuff. I've got a gut feeling that he'll play better at home in his second start.
Defensively, the Seahawks will be super-charged by the 12th Man, offsetting the many advantages Dallas has on offense. Frankly, Romo scares the hell out of me – he's one of the premier quarterbacks in the NFL as far as I'm concerned, but he'll be inconsistent at the deafening Clink.
I'm also basing my pick on the fact that Dallas is bound to be in a letdown situation here. There's no way they can be as up for the Seahawks as they were for the Giants.
If I were in Vegas this weekend – and dammit, I should be; the Cougs are there – I'd bet with both hands on the Seahawks as home dogs.
My prediction: Seahawks 24, Cowboys 17

Show your trace clips or clips in general. I trace clipped ginger today I have to finish it up tomorrow and i'll post photos. I've never clipped a horse before, but I groom dogs so it wasen't too bad. Its just hard because she's so big and long LOL. Atleast she stands still opposed to squirmey little doggies =p. I clipped her b/c we're comming into spring and she's starting to sweat already so I just did a basic trace clip to help her transition a bit better . How long does the hair normally take to come back to normal?
Thanks in advance.

Planning for future when wiring
The sub panel is in and I'm feeding the detached garage with 100a 220v main, 20 position panel.
background: The garage is 36x36, two large bays. I was originally going to build a 2x6 wall down the middle dividing the bays for heating and use purposes as well as supporting the attic trusses. I changed gears mid-build and put up a double lvl with two lollies to keep the options open. Anyway, I would like to do all my wiring this summer so I can get it insulated and use it next winter. I was thinking that to have my flexibility remain in the center... I could run power to some juntion boxes mounted on the lvl and just wire nut it. Later if I wish to build a wall here I can power the center wall receptacles (both sides) from these junction boxes. I do car restorations as well as wood working so I need a lot of flexibility in the shop. Here's the circuitry plan so far: double 30 compressor double 40 welder 20 furnace 20 switched recepticle for audio system 20 west bay dedicated GFI recepticle 20 east bay dedicated GFI recepticle 20 west bay GFI recepticles 20 east bay GFI recepticles 20 west bay lights 20 east bay lights 20 exterior lights 20 exterior GFI recepticles 20 attic lights and recepticles 20 overhead door openers 20 future center wall power 3 positions left in panel overkill in spots but I dont like my lights to go out when the joiner trips the gfi. Planning for three way switches to control the lights of each bay from a future center wall might be a little more work. any neat ideas or suggestions electrically? Suggestions for lights? The old porcelain sockets are cheap and they work but... flouresents are ok but when you walk into a cold shop they dont work. I'd like to keep the options open when planning the light layout too. An inexpensive start would be good... if I can upgrade later. What's the most efficient exterior light to mount up high and really light the driveway? thanks for any ideas! Advertisement |

Planning for future when wiring
First, How high is the interior ceiling? On the outside you can install HID lighting. What is called a wallpack unit is great. They come in high-pressure sodium which is a golden light and in metal halide which is a white light. Depending on how much area you are trying to light determines the wattage. These units come in wattages from 70 to 1000 or more watts. Typically a 250 watt unit will provide enough light.

interior ceiling is 9'4" ish (floor is pitched)
outside I'd like to light say 40x40 area and have enough light to shoot a few hoops on the cement court I poured about 60-80 feet away... just incase a "game" goes late. although I'll eventually add a pole light there. The 2 exterior lights will be above the overhead doors at a height of approximately 14 feet. I will probably also have some exterior decorative sconces on either side of the doors (4 at 7') for normal lighting when I dont need to work outside and spin the meter wild for nothing. I tried to post my first picture but I dont have time to link one right now, and the attachments are too small. thanks, CR |

The waves crash around us,
The foam is harsh and white,
Splintering wood surround us,
The moon our only light.
As we drift beneath the waves,
I float and wonder, staying brave,
As ice cold water fills my lungs,
I only feel euphoria.
Death acts like an anodyne,
As I breathe in salty brine,
I feel no pain, I feel no fear,
There's no more moonlight, way down here.
As I breathe out, ebullition,
The ship tears itself in two,
A perfect natural demolition,
There's nothing left to do.
I see her sinking next to me,
Her perfect flesh incarnadine,
If there's anything I haven't seen,
It's female beauty more supreme...

PUNXSUTAWNEY — Punxsutawney Borough Council's Public Safety meeting opened Tuesday with comments from council President Larry Chenoga in support of a resource officer for Punxsutawney Area High School.
"I'm asking that a member of Public Safety and the rest of council seriously consider the suggestion that was made at a recent school board meeting for the Punxsutawney Area School District to hire a police officer to help protect students, faculty and staff at the school," Chenoga said.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — For many, it has been a rite of passage over the years, passed on from generation to generation: The first day of trout fishing season and the pre-season stocking of Cloe Lake.
The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission held its annual pre-season trout stocking Tuesday at the popular fishing spot, with several generations on hand to carry on the tradition.
According to the commission, Cloe Lake, located on the Jackson Run Creek in Bell Township, was constructed in 1909.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — The Punxsutawney Area School Board held a budget workshop Monday to discuss possible budget cuts in order to save money in the next year's budget.
Instead of cuts, the board learned from Business Manager Susan Robertson that the district will possibly have to dip into its fund balance in order to finish the school year with a balanced budget, saying projections for expenses this year will probably outweigh the revenue. She said how much to move from the fund balance depends on what happens between now and the end of the fiscal year.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — It was a mooo-ving experience Friday as students at Longview Elementary School welcomed members of the Punxsutawney Area High School Ag Club for a senior project.
"The focus of our senior project was to teach elementary students at Longview about the diary industry," said senior Shannon Carpenter, also a member of the Ag Club.
The goal of the project was to show the students how milk comes from cows.
SYKESVILLE — The slight amount of rain at this year's Run/Walk for Someone Special was not enough to stop the participants from smashing last year's record of 407 participants and $45,000. With 524 participants and $65,000 raised this year, the Run/Walk has continued its upward climb.
Run/Walk benefits the Arc of Jefferson-Clearfield Counties and Camp Friendship. The event was held at Town Hall in Skyesville, where men and women of all ages could sign up to run or walk a two-mile or five-mile distance course.
BROOKVILLE — Friday, the Jefferson County Commissioners said Winslow Township supervisors and residents have recently expressed their concerns about a signed lease for a saltwater disposal well in the township.
The lease, signed between Ridgway resident Steven L. Mitchell and EOG Resources, Inc., would allow for the drilling of "Saltwater Disposal Wells (SWD), maintaining, repairing and operating such SWD and all related facilities including meters, separators and pipelines to and from the SWD."

HIDDEN IN THE MIST DENYSÉ BRIDGER ISBN#: (13) 9781607772981 September 2009 Ravenous Romance www.ravenousromance.com eBook $1.99 15 Pages Vampire Erotic Rating: 3 Cups
On a foggy night in Venice she went looking for him.
He knew she would eventually find him in the massive theatre.
His music and voice called to her in a way that no other could. The sensual pull of him seemed to call to her even as her intuition shouted for her to run as fast and far as she could to get away. When she finally realizes exactly what he is, will it be too late?
Hidden in the Mist was a confusing and yet fascinating story full of twists and turns. I was both repelled and drawn to the characters that Ms. Bridger used to portray her story. I kept shaking my head and saying the female was silly for going into the night and getting herself into a situation that could not be good for her. Even after reading the story a second time, I am still not quite sure if I understand completely what the author was trying to express when she wrote this tale. Overall, not a bad story but not something that I would be willing to read a third time.

Gene Spurlock, OCC/AML inspector, received a 25-year service award at the March 2007 Commission meeting. From left are OCC Chairman George Stunkard, Gene Spurlock, Governor's Liaison Jeanette Nance and Executive Director Mike Thralls. |
At the March meeting of the Oklahoma Conservation Commission, Gene Spurlock received recognition for 25 years of service to OCC and the state of Oklahoma. Gene is a project inspector for OCC's Abandoned Mine Land Reclamation Program (AML). Mike Kastl, AML director, stated that Gene started his career at a conservation district, then worked an entire career for the U.S. Soil Conservation Service (SCS). Upon retirement from that job, he came to work for the state in the AML division, and has served 18 years in that position. His years of service at the conservation district combined with those at OCC total 25 years of service to the state.
Upon graduation from high school in Claremore in 1951, Gene went to work as machinery manager for Rogers County Conservation District. In 1958 he joined SCS in a survey crew for the Upstream Flood Control Program. In 1961 he was stationed in Bristow when he married his wife Jennie. After three weeks in Bristow, he was sent to Idabel as survey crew chief. After being stationed at locations around the state including Tulsa and Claremore, and changing to the position of Soil Conservation Technician, Gene retired from SCS. He joined OCC's AML division in 1989 and worked his first project in Craig County. He also worked on AML's first reclamation project in Rogers County, the county that has subsequently had the largest number of AML projects.
Kastl commended Gene for keeping his license as a registered land surveyor active over the years -- No. 462 in the state. Kastl also commended Gene as someone who wouldn't limit his activities, but would do whatever was necessary to get the job done.

Before the party, 17-year-old Kaitlin McCleary worried that no one from her high-school would show up.
Beyond the games and snacks, Kaitlin's hope for the event was that her peers would encounter Christ in a new way. So Kaitlin talked with Shawn Basone, a staff woman with The Coaching Center of Student Venture, a branch of Campus Crusade for Christ.
Shawn helped calm Kaitlin's nerves and reminded her that this is God's event, not hers.
That night, by the time 6 pizzas arrive, 24 teenagers are mingling with each other. At the end of the night, Shawn and Kaitlin go through comment cards from the party.
To Kaitlin's amazement, a number of students marked that they were interested in learning more about God.
Shawn notices that one girl marked a different box. "Kaitlin," she exclaims, "one of the girls accepted Christ!"
"What?" Kaitlin throws her arms around Shawn in a hug. "Can I see?" she asks, grinning. "This makes it all worth it!"
You Will Not Be Alone
Through The Coaching Center, leaders of all ages are trained over the phone on how to be used by God to turn middle and high-school students into Christ-centered laborers.
Through the Coaching Center you will be paired with a Campus Crusade staff member who will coach you over the phone and through e-mail to help you lead a Christian ministry at your local public school.
Student Venture's goal is that every student on every campus will have a chance to say "yes" to the love and forgiveness that Christ offers.
"Summer is a great time to plan and get ready for the fall to start your ministry," says Campus Crusade staff member, Dave Merritt. For more, please contact 877-GoCampus (462-2678) to be connected with The Coaching Center, or visit their Web site for a free detailed guide on how to start a ministry.
5 Steps to Starting a Middle or High School Ministry
(These steps are adapted from The Coaching Center's Web site. The Web site also includes resources to go with each step.)
Step 1: Share in the Vision
Spend a significant amount of time in prayer and reading the Bible. Ask yourself, "What needs of teenagers are most pressing on my heart?"
Think through how things would be different if all the teenagers at your local school came to know Christ.
Dream about what you want to see God do at your local school. How do you want the school to be different 2-4 years from now?
Step 2: Talk to a Coach
If you know one, talk to a local Student Venture staff member in your area. Otherwise, call Student Venture's Coaching Center at 877-GoCampus to speak with a personal ministry coach.
Step 3: Apply to Volunteer
In order for you to use the name Student Venture or Campus Crusade for Christ for your ministry or activities, you need to apply and be accepted. Also all volunteers who work with Student Venture need to apply.
Step 4: Recruit a Team
Explain the vision for your ministry with others and give them specific roles to play. It is important to choose the right people for your team.
Step 5: Create a Ministry Plan
You may want to begin by downloading a planning worksheet. Here are some important steps for creating a ministry plan:
- First, find others who will pray with you and for you.
- Second, learn more about your local school. What are its unique needs?
- Third, meet and gather students by going to the school or wherever teens hang out.
- Fourth, observe how the students hang out naturally.
- Fifth, choose a group of students to reach and plan events.
- Sixth, become aware of legal issues and protective measures that need to be taken when working with minors.

debt of gratitude to the foundation that helped support this award and the many
private sector individuals, especially the examiners, who made the award
possible through their own dedication to quality. And a word
of thanks to Bill Verity and the Commerce Department's National Institute of
Standards and Technology. They have worked very well with the private
sector to ensure that this award truly sets a national standard.
award has a special meaning for me because it's a fitting way to honor a good
friend, Malcolm Baldrige, a dynamic businessman and a
great Secretary of Commerce. Today we honor Mac with a lasting tribute to

If you follow the TMT space (particularly Internet Media), you might, like me, look forward to the time of year when Kleiner Perkins' Mary Meeker presents the firm's "Internet Trends" (http://kpcb.com/insights/2012-internet-trends). Kleiner is at the forefront of investing in innovation in the Internet space so it is fair to say that their opinion matters (acknowledging the positive bias, given they have to sell these trends to the public markets eventually).
One of the big themes that KPCM points to as a bullish indicator for internet /mobile media is the discrepancy between media consumption vs. dollars spent on advertising in those mediums.
Medium |
% of Time Spent |
% of $ Ad Spend |
7% |
25% |
Radio |
15% |
11% |
Television |
43% |
42% |
Internet |
26% |
22% |
Mobile |
10% |
1% |
The basic bull case is that eventually $ ad spend should revert to a mean which matches our actual consumption. Kleiner thinks that if this happens, there is $20 billion of opportunity (revenue) for the companies who hold the leading internet and mobile platforms. One point of note here, the top 3 US newspaper companies (NY Times, McClatchey and Gannett) only earn roughly $4.5 billion of year in revenue from advertising.
How is the market valuing this opportunity and is it reasonable?
If you take Kleiner at their word, there is somewhere around $20 billion of advertising revenue for these internet / mobile properties to go after. The big question then becomes – how much credit is the market giving these properties for their ability to capitalize on this opportunity:
Firm |
Enterprise Value |
Firm |
Enterprise Value |
$228bln |
Pandora |
$1.3bln |
59.6bln |
8.0bln |
Yahoo |
22.0bln |
Foursquare |
0.8bln |
2.7bln |
Hulu |
2.0bln |
TripAdvisor |
5.4bln |
Spotify |
3.0bln |
Expedia |
8.2bln |
1.5bln |
Angie's List |
0.6bln |
WebMD |
0.7bln |
Total: |
$343bln |
Note: Twitter, Foursquare, Hulu, Spotify and Pinterest all reflect latest private market valuations
The market (public and private) is valuing this group of internet media advertising platforms and properties at $340 billion (Google makes up a large part of the gross number but they should participate in the trend and are clearly being credited for it at 6x revenue). It is hard to adjust these valuations for current revenue because a good number of those big private names haven't yet posted financials, but if you look at the public names they did about $51 billion of advertising revenue in the past year. Assuming that the private names trade near or close the top-end of the range (i.e. 10x revenue) that would add about $1.5 billion to that number. That means that the market is assigning a ton of value to the revenue opportunity. You can play with the numbers to decide what you think they should trade at in steady state but let's assume they eventually trade @ 2x revenue in maturity. That means that the market is ascribing $240 billion of value for a revenue opportunity of only $20 billion.
What are some other potential issues?
If you are on Facebook or Twitter, and have been for a while, you've probably noticed the large step up in advertising that the firms have undertaken over the past few months. For Twitter, this has come in the form promoted "tweets" from companies that get inserted into your newsfeed. Facebook has done a similar thing with the use of the promoted posts, in addition to their sidebar ads.
These actions are necessary to appease their stockholders, but what do their users think about the changes. One of the interesting "missing" data points from Kleiner's presentation is how media consumption has evolved in terms of number of hours consumed. In other words, are we consuming more media today because we have constant access to it through our mobile device?
Without data to support this assertion, I think it is probably safe to volunteer a "yes". One only needs to go to a restaurant or ride the subway to see people glued to their smartphones – trolling Facebook or throwing birds at piles of rocks. Smart phones are taking the place of the private moments we used to have for self-reflection or conversations with friends. But here is the rub – is that time we spend engrossed with a tiny screen really a time where we are open to be advertised to?
Intuitively the best time to advertise to a person seems to be when they are a) engaged in passive media consumption (radio or television) or b) while they are at the moment of commercial intent (i.e a Google search). When I am looking at my college roommate's wedding pictures, it probably isn't the right time to ask me if I want to buy a new pair of shoes. But that is the challenge many of these new internet properties face. They've had us move our lives online and created these dynamic communities for us to share the details of our lives with our friends that weren't feasible before. But that doesn't mean it is necessarily the time to pitch us. The properties that will and have had an easier time are that of Google (commercial intent), Pandora / Spotify because we are conditioned to be advertised to at those moments.
First, apologies if this weekly thought was a bit all over the place. The ideas discussed above are more wishy-washy than I prefer but I thought they would be fun to explore it. To try and summarize what I hope are the key points, I would say:
- The revenue opportunity that internet media bulls speak about is tangible but likely not as big as they
tout. It is also likely that some of the "old" media properties will maintain that share by moving where
their audience is
- The valuation being assigned to this opportunity is very optimistic. If you want to make money but
take little risk, short a basket of the names (also look at IB reports written on these names for more
detail – Yelp and Pandora)
- Another potential flaw with Kleiner's work could be that the mobile time spent is really more additive to
total media hours consumed vs. replacement and therefore it is entirely possible that those extra
moments are good times for advertising

Can community-based peer support promote health literacy and reduce inequalities? A realist review – 2015 [UK]
Community-based peer support (CBPS) has been proposed as a potentially promising approach to improve health literacy and reduce health inequalities. Peer support, however, is described as a public health intervention in search of a theory, and as yet there are no systematic reviews exploring why or how peer support works to improve health literacy. This review (191 pages), by Harris et al (2015) for the National Institute for Health Research, is a participatory realist synthesis and is aimed at developing a better understanding of the potential for CBPS to promote better health literacy and reduce health inequalities. Studies written in English describing CBPS research/evaluation, and related papers describing theory, were included. The researchers concluded that peer-support programmes have the potential to improve health literacy and reduce health inequalities but potential is dependent upon the surrounding equity context. More explicit empirical research is needed, which establishes clearer links between peer-supported health literacy and health inequalities.
eHealth literacy interventions for older adults: A systematic review of the literature – 2014 [US]
This paper, by Watkins and Zie (2014), reports findings from a systematic review of 23 articles on health literacy interventions and eHealth literacy interventions for older adults drawn from 28 relevant databases in nine fields. The eHealth literacy interventions in the sampled articles used eHealth literacy as an outcome of interest, applied learning theories, and occurred in informal learning settings such as senior centers and public libraries. In contrast, health literacy interventions (that involved ICTs as a key aspect of their interventions) often targeted specific health outcomes, applied health behavior theories, and occurred in both informal learning and clinical settings. These results indicate a significant gap in the literature on eHealth literacy interventions that use health outcomes for outcome measures. Additionally, most of the studies used no theoretical framework, and only seven studies were RCTs. These results highlight a great need to develop and assess theory-based interventions applying high-quality research design.
Health literacy measurement: An inventory and descriptive summary of 51 instruments – 2014 [US]
This article, by Haun et al (2014), aimed to provide a descriptive review of the psychometric properties and conceptual dimensions of published health literacy measurement tools. A review of medical articles and grey literature, and an environmental scan was conducted to identify health literacy measurement tools. For each tool, the researchers evaluated the conceptual dimensions assessed, test parameters, and psychometric properties. Of the 51 tools identified, 26 measured general health literacy, and 15 were disease or content specific, and 10 aimed at specific populations. The researchers found that the validation procedures for most of the tools are limited by inadequate power to ensure reliability across subgroups; represent a narrow set of conceptual dimensions with limited modes of administration; and most tools lack information on key psychometric properties. The researchers concluded that most tools were unsuitable for accurately determining patient health literacy skills and that significant work is needed to establish important aspects of the construct, convergent, and predictive validity for many tools. As researchers develop new measures, inclusion of a full range of conceptual dimensions of health literacy, more representative sampling for testing, and additional modes of administration will allow a more refined and flexible approach to research in this field.
Numeracy Skill And The Communication, Comprehension, and Use Of Risk-Benefit Information – 2007 [US]
Numeracy skills are an important aspect of health literacy. In this paper Peters et al (2007) review the literature on numeracy as a concept, examine why numeracy skills are important to health care decision-making, what the best practices are for the presentation of numeric health information and what strategies can be used to help less numerate people act more effectively and take charge of their health.
Do rehabilitation professionals need to consider their clients' health literary for effective practice? [Can]
Rehabilitation professionals are often uniformed about and neglect health literacy in their interventions. Levasseur and Carrier (2010) reviewed the scientific and grey literature on health, rehabilitation and health promotion with the objective of determining the importance of integrating health literacy into rehabilitation practice. The authors found that all papers addressing both health literacy and rehabilitation specifically mentioned that rehabilitation professionals need to consider their clients' health literacy. The effectiveness of rehabilitation interventions and clients' long-term health might depend on various factors, including health literacy. Levasseur and Carrier (2010) recommend that rehabilitation professionals be aware of the importance of health literacy and intervene to improve it. The challenge is now to better understand how health literacy influences the effectiveness of rehabilitation and health outcomes.
Integrating health literacy into occupational therapy: findings from a scoping review [Can]
This paper by, Levasseur and Carrier (2012), aimed to report ways of integrating health literacy into occupational therapy practice. A scoping study of the scientific and grey literature on health, occupational therapy and health promotion was done from 1980 to May 2010. Five databases were searched and data were extracted from 44 documents. The authors found that the literature on health literacy needs enhancing in both quantity and quality. Six ways of integrating health literacy into occupational therapy practice were identified. Occupational therapists should 1) be informed about and recognize health literacy, 2) standardize their practice, 3) make information accessible, 4) interact optimally with clients, 5) intervene, and 6) collaborate to increase health literacy. Since health literacy can directly impact intervention efficacy, Levasseur and Carrier (2012), recommend that further studies need to be done on how to integrate health literacy into occupational therapy practice.
A Systematic Review of Asthma and Health Literacy: A Cultural-Ethnic Perspective in Canada
In order to find links between asthma and health literacy in a cultural/ethnicity perspective, Poureslami et al (2007) performed a systematic review of all publications on the topic of asthma, health, and literacy among cultural groups from 1980 to 2006 using the Internet and journals. They conclude that there is an urgent need to better define the impact of cultural and ethnic issues in the management of asthma in Canada. Appropriately designed studies should better define the barriers in the optimal delivery of asthma care influenced by these parameters.
Health Literacy and ophthalmic patient education
In this article by Muir and Lee (2010), the authors review the readability of currently available ophthalmic educational materials, with particular attention to the health literacy status of the patient population for which the materials are intended.
Health in the 'hidden population' of people with low literacy. A systematic review of the literature
This article by Easton et al (2010) reviewed published research to investigate relationships between low functional or health literacy and health in working age adults who can converse in the dominant language but have difficulty with written language. They found that there is evidence in the literature that low functional or health literacy is associated with poor health in the 'hidden population' of adults whose literacy difficulties may not be evident to health care providers.
Understanding the Internal and External Validity of Health Literacy Interventions: A Systematic Literature Review Using the RE-AIM Framework
In this study by Allen et al (2011) the authors conducted a systematic literature review, using the RE-AIM framework, with the goal of determining what information is available to inform research to practice translation of health promotion interventions developed to address health literacy. They suggest that the current research on health promotion for participants with low health literacy provides insufficient information to conclude whether interventions for health literacy can attract the target population, achieve an effect that is sustainable, or be generalized outside of clinical settings.

Knicks pull away for 117-90 victory over Nuggets
- Article by: BRIAN MAHONEY
- Associated Press
- February 7, 2014 - 9:20 PM
NEW YORK — Carmelo Anthony scored 31 points in three quarters, then watched from the bench as the New York Knicks ran away from his old team in the fourth for a 117-90 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Friday night.
J.R. Smith added 10 of his 13 points in the fourth. He also threw the pass of the game during the decisive spurt when he went behind the back to Jeremy Tyler, who scored while being fouled.
Amare Stoudemire finished with 17 points for the Knicks, who snapped a three-game losing streak. Tyler had 12 points and 11 rebounds as the Knicks shot 56.5 percent from the field, one of their best performances of the season.
It was a surprisingly easy victory during a difficult season for the Knicks, who figured they would be competing for championships by now when they paid a heavy price to acquire Anthony from the Nuggets three years ago this month.
Instead, they are only 20-30, currently outside the playoff picture and giving Denver hope that the first-round pick the Knicks still owe them this summer from that Anthony deal could be in the lottery.
Ty Lawson scored 24 points for the Nuggets, who had their two-game winning streak stopped and fell back to .500 at 24-24. Former Knicks forward Wilson Chandler had 24.
The Knicks' latest slump had sparked renewed reports that coach Mike Woodson's job could be in jeopardy, and he spent most of his pregame press conference repeating his confidence in himself and his team. He still believes the Knicks can be a playoff team, a thought only imaginable because they reside in the Eastern Conference.
But they showed Friday how effective they can be when they get balanced scoring beyond Anthony, which has happened infrequently this season.
Leading by seven in the third quarter, New York began to open a gap when Anthony made a jumper, Tyson Chandler scored and Anthony nailed a 3-pointer to make it 62-48 with about 8½ minutes remaining in the period.
Tim Hardaway Jr. made a 3-pointer and Anthony converted a three-point play for a quick six points in the final minute as the lead grew to 83-66. Smith had three straight baskets in the fourth, the latter two from behind the arc, to push the lead to 102-77.
The Knicks helped hand the Nuggets a 26-20 lead after one, committing eight turnovers that led to 14 points. But the much-maligned Raymond Felton scored all of his nine points in the second, and New York scored the final nine points of the period for a 50-44 halftime lead.
Felton also had eight assists.
NOTES: The Knicks visit Oklahoma City on Sunday for a nationally televised matchup featuring Kevin Durant and Anthony, the NBA's top two scorers. Anthony missed the Thunder's Christmas Day rout of the Knicks with a sprained ankle. ... The Knicks shot a season-high 57.1 percent against Brooklyn on Dec. 5.
