WENT TO MY OLD HOMETOWN THIS MORNING: To Central Lake. Dad had a gig at the grocery store there. I had to go. Any chance to see my old stomping grounds is a good thing. Dad said I snored the whole way up to Center Lake. (Busy year, fuckers.)
Dad punched in for the gig and I set off on foot. Checked out Bachmann's general store, walked up Brooks street to the house I grew up in, walked down the sidewalk I learned to ride a bike on. I love going to Central Lake.
I met Jesse Denherder in the grocery market. He recognized me walking up Brooks street, knowing my face and girth from the design world. We know a bunch of heads from the Lansing world. Mark Phillips and that fucker, Dale Alan Dixon. And Campbell from TC. Turns out he lives across the street from where I grew up! Wow. Brooks street. Good to meet you, man!
Dad wrapped up the gig a couple hours later. All proceeds from his santa gigs go to his favorite charity in Traverse City, the Father Fred Foundation. That's how my dad rolls during thw holi-daze. Headed for sainthood!

By the afternoon Friday, some roads leading from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv had reopened as police and troops using snow plows worked to clear the stranded vehicles, the Jerusalem Post reported. Roads leading into Jerusalem were closed.
Stranded drivers were taken to an emergency shelter at the Jerusalem Convention Center and the Ofer military camp. At least 2,000 motorists were stuck on roadways leading to Jerusalem after up to 10 inches of snow fell.
"We are currently using all means available to save the people stuck in the storm. Only after the weather calms will we be able to open all of the roadways in the city," said Jerusalem Mayor Nir Barkat, adding that the city was facing "a battle against a rare storm, the likes of which we have never seen."
The heavy snow accumulation lead to the closure of Gurion International Airport for about an hour, the newspaper said.
Heavy precipitation in Tel Aviv lead to the closure of the Ayalon Highway as the Ayalon stream came to within three feet of spilling onto the road.
City officials instructed residents to stay off the roads until the winter storm had passed, the Post reported.

Seasons in Hell: The Brutality of America's Modern Day Slave TradeCold indifference to the plight of these women and children is what makes this exploitation possible.
January 7, 2012 - 12:11 am
Nineteen-year-old Carina Saunders of Mustang, Oklahoma, was reported missing on September 28 of 2011 though investigators found reports of people seeing her alive and well in early October. On October 13, animal welfare workers looking for feral cats found the decapitated and mutilated body of Carina in a duffel bag behind a grocery store. It is believed the corpse was there several days before the gruesome discovery. Police had to initially look at her tattoos to determine an identity.
Authorities at first focused on a young "Juggalo" named Cody Perez, a violent ex-con who had recently pawned his set of chef's knives and fled the area. After all, a brutal killing by a fan of the band Insane Clown Posse would just be another crime in a long list of sensational stories involving the group. But police cleared Perez after a nine week investigation with dozens of witnesses uncovered a crime that seemed to come straight out of a horror movie by a group of criminals most Americans thought were long extinct — slavers. We use the term "human traffickers" now, which sounds much more modern and urbane — as if the victims are willing cargo on some underground railroad. But the reality is that America's modern day slave trade is as barbaric and brutal as slavery was before emancipation.
During the investigation into Carina's death, a 20-year-old woman — who by some accounts may be a prostitute or a madam — came forward to tell a tale so horrific that most would discount it as fantasy if not for the confessions that followed. She related how a drug dealer named Jimmy Lee Massey with ties to a gang that sold both drugs and slaves kidnapped her from a residence and took her to an abandoned building. There he restrained her while a still undisclosed number of people, including a man named Francisco Gomez, tortured and murdered Carina Saunders. The witness, who police are not naming because of what they perceive as very real threats to her life, reported that Massey forced her to watch the entire murder as a message to her and other women of what would happen to those who didn't cooperate with the gang.
A press conference held by Police Chief Phil Cole revealed even more disturbing details. The criminal organization Massey and Gomez were involved with has several Mexican nationals as members, indicating a transnational connection. The investigation led to multiple arrests for various crimes, but police have yet to apprehend everyone they know is involved in the gang. But most disturbing of all was the fact that Carina was simply a victim of opportunity.

Fujifilm XF1
12MP | 25-100mm (4x) Zoom | $450 (US) £320 (UK) €460 (EU)
- Buy Now / Check Price
- www.fuijfilm.com
- Full specifications, plus user reviews and more sample images
- Hands-on preview
The Fujifilm XF1 is the latest in its reputation-building 'X' series - with the company showing off what it's capable of doing. It's impressive in terms of specifications but it also tries to offer something distinctive in terms of design and technology. Conceptually the XF1 sits towards the Canon S-series end of the spectrum - prioritizing small camera dimensions over direct control or a bright lens (it's the X10's job to fulfil those needs).
Key Features
- 12.0MP 2/3" CMOS EXR sensor (offering 6MP output with higher dynamic range or lower noise)
- ISO 100-3200 (up to 12800, at reduced resolution, JPEG only)
- 25-100mm (equivalent), F1.8-4.9 optically stabilized zoom lens
- Rear clickable thumb dial and four-way dial
- 1080p30 video with stereo microphones
- 3.0" LCD screen with 460k dots
- 300 shot battery life (CIPA)
- Built-in ND filter
- In-camera Raw conversion option
Performance and Image Quality
The XF1 has three modes - a full resolution mode or two 6MP modes that combine pixels to improve either dynamic range or noise performance. Confusingly, the camera also has a second mode to capture more highlight information, but doesn't ever make it clear which you're using. And, while the EXR capability means the XF1 can capture 6MP images with unsurpassed highlight detail, for a compact, it imposes some limitations on the full resolution output. Shoot at 12MP or in Raw and you can't quite match the resolution performance of its more conventional peers. More problematically, fine detail - particularly fine green detail - is often rendered in a rather blurred, smudgy way.
However, the Fujifilm's images are pretty good unless you dig around at the pixel level - the camera behaves very well in terms of exposure and its color rendition is on the pleasant side of realistic. The imperfect corners of the lens at its widest setting, plus the camera's rather disappointing demosaicing mean the image quality doesn't live up to the standards set by many of its rivals.
The XF1 is undoubtedly a pretty camera but it's also one that does a good job of balancing the needs of the different potential user - it works well as a stylish point-and-shoot but is still quick and enjoyable to take control over. The XF1's output lives up to the standard of its exterior design - the metering is reliable and the color rendition is attractive. The manual zoom lens, once you've figured it out, gives precise control over your framing in a way that powered zooms don't.
Ironically the one thing the XF1's interface doesn't do well is to give easy access to its EXR capabilities - one of the features that should help the camera stand out. Getting to the EXR features in anything but the EXR Auto mode is unnecessarily difficult, but the XF1 is still a pretty good camera, even if you choose not to use them. Overall, though, the XF1's slightly glitchy image quality takes the sheen off a camera that looks great and is a pleasure to use.
Studio and Real-World Samples (links open in new tab)
Studio Comparison Tool | Fujifilm XF1 Samples (25 images) |
What we like: Classy styling and good build quality. Useful lens range. Well-designed user interface. Flash performance.
What we don't like: Disappointing lens corner performance at wide-angle. Poor detail rendition in full-size images.

Like the Lincoln MKT concept featured at the Detroit Auto Show in 2008, the production 2010 Lincoln MKT will have the 1941 Continental-style bow-wave grille first seen on the MKS and destined to become a Lincoln signature face, a chamfered surface parallel to the beltline and a thick C-pillar, with very little other than overall dimensions to hint at its connection with the Flex.
It will come in six- or seven-passenger variants and will add a plethora of high-tech conveniences, including Blind Spot Monitoring and Cross Traffic Alert System. The latter uses two multibeam sonar modules in the rear quarter panels that alert the driver with an indicator light on the corresponding outside mirror when another vehicle enters the blind-spot zone.
The rear view of the Lincoln MKT concept is shown below.

My review of the CBT Foundational skills training at the Hincks-Dellcrest Centre
4 comments:
super cool I would love to go to something like that. I am in graduate school for my masters.. what a beating at times HA HA..Would love to learn any new stuff you come across.. i think we can never stop learning as Social Workers
ReplyDeleteRepliesHi Donna!
Thanks for reading and for leaving a comment! I am really big into ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy) which is the "third wave" of behavioural therapies. If you're into CBT at all, I recommend checking out ACT - it's not just an exposure technology but a great experiential approach to cognitive therapy that clients find practical. Also, I admire the position of psychological flexibility rather than restructuring. In the future I plan on writing a LOT more about ACT.
Are you doing your master of social work?
Dear Blast from the Past,
Great to see you are into something that is totally up your alley!!
Thought I would comment!! Hope all is well!!

For lack of a better word, Said Radio is a "supergroup" of his own former bands, along with Dante Sigona (ex-Nerve Agents), Gary Gutfeld (ex-Redemption 87), and the help of two others including Anthony Anzaldo (Ceremony).

This band in utterly mind-blowing! This is a band that can only be judged by their live performance. Awesome live band. i don't know how they found time to put so much effort into that artwork. i don't know how they found time to put so much effort into that artwork. I can see why people wouldn't like these guys. Though, I find it a little too early to say you hate them. Ceremony is great live, and Anthony's hair is awesome. Oh, I also saw them right after Shipwreck (AD?), Ceremony and before Blacklisted, so maybe they weren't all that bad, but certainly not as exciting as the guys they were hanging out with. Sorry, I hated this band. I understand their pedigree and I'm a big fan of non two-step hardcore but they just didn't do anything for me. I like it......a lot. It is slightly more melodic than the Nerve Agents, but in this case that is actually a good thing. There are some moments (especially on "Cue The Crickets") that almost have a "Revolution Summer" vibe to them (by which I mean the sound is angry and intense, yet not without a sweet dose of melody and emotion thrown in). PJZ, amen. They put on a very unique show. Eric Ozenne hanging from the ceiling is pretty entertaining. i am so comfortable with eric ozenne's voice Is this out now? If so, I need to pick it up. it makes sense. i think it's nice to see that continued progression, i remember right before NA broke up i was thinking how much they had improved over time and how i couldn't wait to hear what they would do next.... they were so fucking good live, holy shit... DrGunn, I was listening to the Nerve Agents today, and yeah, I agree with you. There are a lot more similarities than I thought at the time of writing the review. But hearing the Nerve Agent's first release sounding extremely close to Redemption 87's material, Said Radio doesn't seem to come as close as that to the Nerve Agent's music. If that makes any sense. i still haven't listened to this enough to form a concrete opinion, but thus far i'm enjoying it. G'ard damnit I forgot all about this band in the recent shuffle. Luckily I just put an $11.27 paypal credit to good use and ordered this. Haven't heard this yet. Not seeing the Nerve Agents has been one of my biggest regrets especially since they played in my town a month before they announced their break up and I didn't go thinking they'd stay around. Score is for Nerve Agents. Extremely promising record. |

The 21-year-old McDermott, who was the leading wicket-taker in Australia's domestic one-day competition last season, replaces Clint McKay in the squad for the three-match series after the bowler pulled a hamstring during a practice match in Darwin.
"Alister was impressive in all formats last summer and bowled very well for Australia A against Durham last week," said national selector John Inverarity.
"He is a very fit and disciplined young man who bowls with good sense and good control."
His father Craig played 71 tests and 138 ODIs from 1984-1996, and in a year-long stint as head bowling coach, oversaw Australia's 4-0 whitewash of India in the test series earlier this year before stepping down in May.
The younger McDermott, who shares his father's red hair and possesses a similar bowling action, has raised big expectations in Australia since winning a rookie contract with Queensland state when still at high school.
Australia play their first ODI against Pakistan on Aug. 28 at Sharjah.

Are YOU buying this?? Personally I'm a little skeptical on studies like this sometimes but hey…they're the "experts" right?!?!
The researchers studied 94 undergraduate students who were randomly divided into three groups, each of which was put in front of a TV for 20 minutes.
One group was asked to watch a part of the Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson thriller 'The Island'. The second group watched the same film excerpt on mute, while the last group watched interview program 'The Charlie Rose Show'.
All three sets of participants were given snacks such as cookies, M&Ms, grapes, and carrots while watching TV. The snacks were weighed before and what was left were weighed after TV viewing.
Researchers found that people who viewed the interview show ate 104.3 grams of food, while those who watched action movie with sound on ate twice as that with 206.5 grams of food.
Study author Aner Tal, a Cornell's Food and Brand Lab's postdoctoral research associate, explained that the more stimulating, fast-paced programs with many camera cuts drew viewers in and distracted them from what they were eating.

Holmes on EmergenciesAdrian VermeuleHarvard Law School Harvard Public Law Working Paper No. 07-07 Abstract: Justice Holmes's judicial and extrajudicial writings implicitly suggest a coherent account of emergencies, law, and constitutional adjudication. I will call this account the epistemic theory of emergencies. Its main elements are that (1) the existence and duration of an emergency are questions of fact; (2) during emergencies courts should not practice judicial minimalism or the passive virtues; (3) during emergencies there are no non-derogable rights - government can do anything if circumstances warrant; (4) the main checks on governmental action during emergencies are that (a) legislative limitation of executive powers trumps, where the political branches disagree; and (b) judges engage in ex post sunsetting, once an emergency has in fact ended, by declaring the emergency terminated and rescinding the government's emergency powers. I then offer a broader evaluation of Holmes's views, suggesting that the epistemic theory of emergencies is the best version of a common-law strategy for regulating government action during emergencies. Throughout, the enterprise is not biographical, historical or doctrinal; it is theoretical.

- Edmund Dulac (1882-1953), Artist and illustrator. Artist of 1 portrait, Sitter in 17 portraits.
This portraitback to top
Dulac's skill as a caricaturist is combined here with a fascination with Japanese prints. The detail suggests a degree of collaboration between sitter and artist. The pose is a traditional one for reciting poetry, while the six-line verse poem and the format of the book suggest a Noh play The charcoal burner in the foreground is a handwarmer, the two metal sticks are for removing coals to light a pipe and the box is for tabacco. The ideograms provide approximations of the artist and the sitter's names both in sound and pun form, while the upper left group provide a title: 'Translation's translation'.

Kendall and Kylie Jenner Open Up About Their Parent's Separation
While Bruce and Kris Jenner claim to be closer than ever following their separation, it may not be as easy for the couple's children to see their parents split. So how are the rest of the Kardashians and Jenners handling the break up? It turns out the rest of the Kardashian clan is doing just fine. While the duo's daughters, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, seem to miss the days of the family living under the same roof, the two teens understand why their parents went separate ways. "I think we're doing fine," Kendall said last night, January 15, during an appearance on Chelsea Lately. "It sucks not having a dad living with you but I talk to him everyday." "We hang out all the time," Kylie added. One thing the two young stars aren't so crazy about? Their father's post-split ponytail.
"We've been trying to get rid of it but he loves it," Kendall said. "He's trying to be like my brothers [Brody Jenner and Brandon Jenner].
Much like their mom, Kendall and Kylie also weren't afraid to talk about their favorite family member. But while Kris has always been vocal about her preference for daughter Kim Kardashian, the two teens admit that their favorite sister is Khloe Kardashian.
"She was always there to watch us and babysit us when our parents weren't around," Kendall said. "She was my second mom."
"She's always the one disciplining us and scolding us," Kylie added. "I'm so scared of her!"

dc.description.abstract | This study explored change implementation communication from a multifaceted (more than one at any particular time) change perspective. It examined how employees make sense of and respond to the organizational coordination of multifaceted change efforts. The case of a merger provides the backdrop for which to understand the multiplicity and complexity of organizational change (both planned and unplanned) and how the communicative organizational response to these overlapping and subsequent changes both complement and compete with the initially introduced change. This project was organized into two studies. The first explored the messages stakeholders recall receiving from implementers about multifaceted change. The second tested the relationships between change messages and specific individual and organizational change outcomes. Thematic analysis revealed that implementers used four different change messages. Statistical analysis revealed that multifaceted change messages create higher levels of change satisfaction, message quality, change liking, and organizational trust. Moreover, messages including information about the multiplicity (or magnitude) produced the least degree of perceived deception, the greatest degree of coping efficacy, and higher degrees of organizational competency appraisals. |

Simple and easy. No regex, no search and replace. Just clean, built-in tools.
Interfaces like lo can be omitted from the beginning, there are probably better ways of doing this, i'm a noob at awk.
I prefer the ip command to ifconfig as ifconfig is supposedly going to be deprecated. Certain IP address aliases can only be seen with the ip command (such as the ones applied by RHCS).
If you are interested in interfaces other than eth0 you will need to change eth0 to your interface name.
You could use this mammoth to nab the ip4 addresses of all your interfaces
perl -e '@_=`ifconfig -a`; sort(@_); foreach(@_) { /(inet addr\:)(\d+.\d+.\d+.\d+ )/; $_=$2; @uniq=grep($_ ne $prev && (($prev) = $_), @_);} print join "\n",@uniq,"\n"; '
it seems silly to have all this code when the following will work fine
ifconfig -a | grep "inet " | awk -F":" ' { print $2 } ' | cut -d " " -f1
Sometimes, you don't really care about all the other information that ifconfig spits at you (however useful it may otherwise be). You just want an IP. This strips out all the crap and gives you exactly what you want.
The initial version of this command also outputted extra empty lines, so it went like this:
This happened on Ubuntu, i haven't tested on anything else.
and, a lot uglier, with sed:
ifconfig | sed -n '/inet addr:/s/[^:]\+:\(\S\+\).*/\1/p'
Wanted to be shorter than the perl version. Still think that the perl version is the best..
Fetches the IPs and ONLY the IPs from ifconfig. Simplest, shortest, cleanest.
Perl is too good to be true...
(P.S.: credit should go to Peteris Krumins at catonmat.net)
get desired info from machine and pipe it txt file.
The command above has been changed due to very good constructive criticism - thanks x 2! This command can be used after acquiring mac's, ip's and hostname's or any of the above from a freshly scanned LAN. User must be root, and remember to change your settings on your network managing software manually (Fedc10 NetworkManager Applet 0.7.1 is mine) instead of 'auto DHCP'. You can also substitute eth0 for wlan0 etc - be good and ENJOY!
This is useful if you have need to do port forwarding and your router doesn't assign static IPs, you can add it to a script in a cron job that checks if you IP as recently changed or with a trigger script.
This was tested on Mac OSX.
parses the output of ifconfig to show only the configured ip address (in this case from interface eth0).
the regexp is quick'n'dirty im sure it can be done in a better way.
--> this alias does not show your "internet ip" when you're in a nat-environment

TO THE PEOPLE OF YUGOSLAVIA, TO THE SERBS, THE CROATS AND THE SLOVENES, I SEND MY GREETINGS. You have been wantonly attacked by a ruthless and barbarous aggressor. Your capital has been bombed, your women and children brutally murdered. Our cities in England, too, have been bombed by the same insensate foe. Our women and children have been murdered. Our Sympathy for you therefore is heartfelt for we are sharing the same sufferings. But as we have faith in our victory, so we have faith in yours. Do not regret the staunch courage which has brought on you this furious onslaught. Your courage will shine out in the pages of history and will, too, reap a more immediate reward. Whatever you may lose in the present you have saved the future. You are making a heroic resistance against formidable odds and in doing so you are proving true to your great traditions. Serbs, we know you. You were our allies in the last war and your armies are covered with glory. Croats and Slovenes, we know your military history. For centuries you were the bulwark of Christianity. Your fame as warriors spread far and wide on the Continent. One of the finest incidents in the history of Croatia is the one when, in the 16th Century, long before the French Revolution, the peasants rose to defend the rights of man, and fought for those principles which centuries later gave the world democracy. Yugoslavs, you are fighting for those principles today. The British Empire is fighting with you, and behind us is the great democracy of the U.S.A., with its vast and ever-increasing resources. However hard the fight, our victory is assured. [1] British Library of Information. Sources: ibiblio |

If you were LAZY you would want to learn vi so as to save yourself time and trouble over the long haul. If you were IMPATIENT, you would want to learn vi as soon as possible so as to start reaping the benefits sooner rather than later. Finally, with HUBRIS you would not want just to learn vi but instead not be satisfied with less than complete mastery of vi. Admitting that vi (or some other programmer's editor) is superior to pico for your tasks, but then not making the effort to learn it is neither Laziness, Impatience, nor Hubris.

Normal wtCFTR traffic/ ER-to-Golgi
The cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a member of the ATP-binding cassette transporter superfamily. It acts in apical part of the epithelial cells as a plasma-membrane cyclic AMP-activated chloride anion, bicarbonate anion and glutathione channel [1], [2], [3]. Cell surface expression of the CFTR is a highly regulated intracellular process [4], [5].
Export of CFTR from ER to the Golgi may be realized in Coat protein complex-II (COPII)-dependent manner [6], [7].
A Golgi associated PDZ and coiled-coil motif containing (PIST) regulates CFTR trafficking. PIST causes a reduction in the number of CFTR channels in the plasma membrane and facilitates trafficking of CFTR to lysosomes [8], [9], [10]. PIST action is activated by Syntaxin 6 [11], (Cheng et al., The 21st annual north American cystic fibrosis conference, California, 2007) and is inhibited by Ras homolog gene family, member Q (TC10) [12].
CFTR modified in ER and/or Golgi may be delivered from the Golgi to the apical membrane, possibly, with participation of coat protein complex Coatomer [13].

Titanium claims it can do the same app on average 70% faster than native XCode.
What's been everyone else's experience in terms of difference in speed of development (between native XCode and PhoneGap or titanium) ?
Let's say an app like Kik Messenger or Badoo ....
Typically, a good XCode developer can do it in 4-5 weeks, assuming graphics and backend are in place.
What would it take for an experienced Titanium (HTML5) person to achieve this? (roughly)

All Rise...Judge David Johnson's private detective firm has struggled since he failed to solve the Case of the Stinky Fart. Editor's NoteOur review of Jack Irish: Series 1 (Blu-ray), published September 19th, 2013, is also available. The ChargeNoir from down under. The CaseJack Irish (Guy Pearce, Lockout) is a sort-of decent private detective who can't seem to catch a break. Following the tragic death of his wife, Jack has been adrift, losing himself in his work and trying to maintain connections to his extended family. Series 2 (which is a bit misleading as there's just one 87-minute mystery on deck) finds Jack at a crossroads caught between an on-again/off-again romance with a radio journalist (Marta Dusseldorp) and a family friend caught in the middle of a vicious blackmailing scheme. The mystery is called "Dead Point," and kicks off with a daring drug robbery and leads to a corpse in a car. The crime intersects with Jack's investigation on behalf of his father-in-law and as Jack digs deeper he discovers a web of corruption and a conspiracy that will leave more than a few bodies in its wake. This is my first exposure to Jack Irish and I was intrigued initially because of Guy Pearce. His star power may have gotten me in the door, but there was enough good TV here to keep me hooked until the end. Is it the top of the heap as far as Acorn's mystery imports? Not quite. The central mystery isn't terribly strong and the payoff is far-fetched (the CGI explosion and the clunky action-like capper don't do it any favors either). And the villains at the heart of the conspiracy are cartoonish. But it's Guy Pearce and Jack Irish who elevate the material. Jack is a flawed, vulnerable character, long in the tooth and forlorn. Life has smacked him around a great deal and Pearce, pro that he is, renders this characterization perfectly. What's nifty about Jack Irish is that he's flawed, but not in the usual "that dude is a hard drinker and womanizer and he once killed an Albanian white slaver with a hammer" way; he makes mistakes, can barely handle himself in a fight, and will usually run from danger rather than encounter it. In many ways, he's the opposite of the hard-boiled private detective; he's a beta-dick. And "Dead Point" is worthy of your time because of it. Acorn serves up both a DVD and a Blu-ray, the latter sporting a clean 1.78:1/1080i transfer and a DTS-HD 2.0 Master Audio track.

EW ROCHELLE, N.Y. - Jeff Ruland leaned forward and exhaled.
He wanted this game. As the greatest player in Iona history, Ruland understands now, as a coach, how vital it can be to bring a name opponent into a small campus gym like the Mulcahy Center.
In that respect, his Gaels' 85-77 season-opening loss to UMass last night was necessary for that long road in establishing a national program.
Imagine that. Some people still think of UMass as a national-caliber outfit.
Micah Brand battles for the rock in his first collegiate game. |
Iona beat the Minutemen like few other teams last season - in Amherst.
Last night's performance, with Monty Mack scoring a game-high 21 points after only half a week of practice as the result of recovery from a broken foot and Mike Babul ignoring his sore back long enough to limit Iona star Tariq Kirksay to five second-half points, was the sort of complete game Flint rarely received from his charges last year.
Check that. Last night's second half was as complete as this team can get. Last night's first half was a horror show that resulted in a 43-38 Iona lead, courtesy of 15 points from Kirksay and some effective crashing by the Gaels front line with UMass center Kitwana Rhymer (12 points, seven rebounds) on the bench with foul trouble.
``To be honest, Iona beat us a lot worse than UConn last year,'' said Flint. ``We watched the tape of that game for the first time last night. We didn't do that after the game last year, because my coaches were worried that I might strangle someone if we did.''
There was no such problem last night, of course.
The Minutemen made virtually every necessary play in the second half, from hitting important free throws to getting the ball in the hands of the right player - in most cases Mack.
But UMass' offensive leader wasn't the only one turning in big plays last night.
Jonathan DePina, who started in place of Mack because of that sore foot, ran the offense down the stretch with a calmness rarely evident in his game during the last two years.
Flint called his game-tying 3-pointer with 14:47 left in the game the big play of the game. DePina (11 points, team-high four assists) also hit a jumper from the baseline to seal it with 1:40 left.
But the game's single biggest swing was turned in by forward Chris Kirkland (15 points) who, after stealing the ball from Terry Small, cruised in for a fast-break hoop. Small knocked him into the backet support on the play - a hard foul that was ruled intentional - and Kirkland responded by hitting both free throws. UMass also retained possession and got a Shannon Crooks (11 points) jumper from the key for a six-point swing and a 64-56 lead with 9:24 left.
The Minutemen pulled out to a 70-60 lead before the Gaels, starting with a Phil Grant trey, started to bite back.
Iona's Dyree Wilson, with his teammates pulling the ball off the glass, converted off the break with a short jumper to cut UMass' edge to 70-67 with 4:15 left.
EW ROCHELLE, N.Y. - Mike Babul admittedly didn't think he would see 30 minutes of action last night - virtually all of it within two inches of Tariq Kirksay's chest.
But as the Minuteman most likely to draw the other team's big scorer, Attleboro's Babul was rushed into extra duty last night despite the fact he is recovering from a sore back.
The result was a five-point second half from the Iona star, who started with a 15-point first half, leaving UMass coach Bruiser Flint with only one halftime decision.
``I was a little surprised at how much I played, but once Kirksay started going off, I knew I was going to be out there quite a bit in the second half,'' said Babul, who subsequently earned another fan.
``He played great defense in the second half,'' said Kirksay. ``Everywhere I went, he was there. I tried to work hard to get open, but he worked hard to stay with me. Their goal was to stop me in the second half, and they went out and did that.''
Mack hits 1,000
Monty Mack went into last night's game only needing 15 points to score his 1,000th point, and he hit the milestone with a double-pump jumper from the lane with 11:25 left. He finished with 21 points - the senior guard's 17th career game with at least 20 points.
Considering that Mack started practicing Wednesday after sitting out the fall with a broken foot, Iona coach Jeff Ruland considered the guard's performance somewhat remarkable.
``Monty Mack sat out for five weeks, and my God, I wonder what he would have been like if he practiced,'' said Ruland.
One streak came to an end last night, however. Mack, who came off the bench for the first time in a UMass uniform, had started in 62 straight games.
UMass isn't corny
Flint doesn't want Temple's John Chaney to get all the credit when it comes to managing a team's hairstyle.
The UMass coach demanded equal time upon hearing that Chaney ordered his players to avoid the allure of cornrows - those tight-to-the-scalp braids that have popped up across the country in honor of Allen Iverson and Latrell Sprewell, the style's chief adherents.
``I've got a no-cornrows rule, too,'' said the traditionally close-cropped Flint. ``My guys have to be neat. If you're not in uniform and you're at a game, you have to wear a tie.''
EW ROCHELLE, N.Y. -- The season began promisingly enough Saturday night for Tariq Kirksay, the player the Iona men's basketball team will be counting on to improve last season's 16-14 record.
Monty Mack pokes the ball away. |
"I feel that I let them down," said Kirksay, who finished with 20 points but attempted just two shots in the second half. "I feel that being a leader, I should be the player that steps up, and be the guy to demand the ball."
UMass received a game-high 21 points from guard Monty Mack.
Kirksay, who had made 6 of 11 shots while Massachusetts rotated defenders on him, became a nonfactor once UMass's defensive specialist, Mike Babul, began to blanket him with five minutes left in the first half.
The Gaels received sporadic bursts from others in the second half, but nothing sustained. Guard Phil Grant scored 14 points, and Dyree Wilson added 13.
The Minutemen pushed ahead four times before the game's pivotal sequence, with the score tied at 56-56. UMass's Monty Mack started it with a layup, then Chris Kirkland stole the ball at Iona's end and sped the length of the court for a layup with Iona's Jermaine Small wrapped around his waist. The layup went in, Kirkland made both free throws off the intentional foul, and the former St. John's player Shannon Crooks drilled a jumper.
UMass led by 64-56 with 9 minutes 17 seconds to go.
Wilson closed the lead to 70-67 on a jump shot with 4:12 seconds to go, but Babul answered with a free throw. The Gaels never got closer, and Kirksay was left to wonder what happened to his better half.
EW ROCHELLE, N.Y. � It was a game advertised as the opening act for an exciting new offense, but the victory was also made possible by defense from a familiar source.
"I'm a little sore right now, but I'll be fine," said University of Massachusetts senior forward Mike Babul, who missed almost the entire preseason, but put the clamps on Iona forward Tariq Kirksay last night, helping the Minutemen rally for a satisfying 85-77 opening-night men's basketball win at the Mulcahy Campus Center.
"I just tried to deny him in the post and push him out to about 12 or 15 feet," Babul said. "He's a different player out there."
Babul has been out with a muscle strain in his back, but he started last night and was called upon to handle Kirksay after Iona's 6-foot-6 senior had scored 15 first-half points, mostly against UMass forward Chris Kirkland. Kirksay wound up with 20, and UMass rallied from a 47-38 deficit to take a 70-60 lead with 5:53 left.
While Babul shored up the defense, Monty Mack also delivered a performance beyond what UMass might have expected. Mack missed almost the entire preseason with a stress fracture in his left foot, but scored 21 points and became the 34th UMass player to reach 1,000 in his career.
Mack passed the milestone with a short jumper that gave UMass a 56-54 lead. Mack has 1,006 career points, and played 31 minutes last night, even though the injury caused him to be kept out of the starting lineup for the first time in his career.
For UMass, there's little time to savor a victory that didn't come easily. Tomorrow night at Storrs, Conn., the Minutemen play defending national champion Connecticut, but UMass coach Bruiser Flint said the nature of last night's win was an encouraging prelude.
"Just about everybody contributed, and we made big plays when we needed to make them," Flint said. "I didn't want to put Mike on Kirksay, because his back had been hurting him. But everybody in the country knows we put him on the other team's best man, and I had to do it."
"Babul is not the fastest or the strongest player, but he's the smartest," Kirksay said. "They didn't do anything special on me defensively in the second half. But he's special."
A key moment in the UMass comeback came with 9:38 left, when Kirkland broke free for a layup with the Minutemen leading 58-56. The UMass forward made the basket, and Iona forward Jermaine Small was called for a flagrant foul that sent Kirkland to the line for two shots.
He made both, UMass kept possession because of the call and Shannon Crooks hit a jumper than made it 64-56. In essence, Kirkland's layup became a six-point play, and even though Iona came to within 70-67 on a 7-0 run, the Minutemen never looked back.
Kirkland scored 15 points and Kitwana Rhymer had a career-high 12 despite playing only 11 minutes because of foul trouble. Crooks scored 11 in his first game for the Minutemen, and Jonathan DePina also had 11, including a huge jumper than made it 75-69 with 1:37 left.
When Iona scored the first two baskets of the second half, the Gaels again led by nine, but UMass came roaring back with the fast-paced style it has planned this season, as well as a better effort in the half-court game.
The Minutemen also owned a 28-16 edge in second-half rebounding.
EW ROCHELLE, N.Y. - With 9:36 remaining in the game and the University of Massachusetts clinging to a 58-56 advantage, Chris Kirkland stole the ball from Iona's Jermaine Small and raced down court.
Determined to keep the Minuteman forward from getting the easy dunk, Small leaped up and fouled Kirkland hard in the air. Despite the collision, Kirkland still got the ball to drop through. Small was whistled for an intentional foul and Kirkland made both free throws to give the Minutemen a 62-56 advantage, by far their biggest lead of the game.
The Minutemen, who had trailed by as many as nine early in the half, went on to win, 85-77, in their season opener in front of a hostile crowd at the Mulcahy Center. UMass returns to action tonight against No. 8 Connecticut at Gampel Pavilion.
"We saw that if we keep our composure and do what we have to do, we can come back and win," said UMass coach Bruiser Flint. "Once we got the lead, we controlled the game. (Iona) is a good team."
"I thought we played a good second half," said senior guard Monty Mack. "We came out and played hard and everybody was just doing little things. We started rebounding and people hit some big shots."
UMass' new up-tempo offense was on display Saturday, although the Minutemen employed that style more judiciously than in the preseason. It still translated into more offense - they scored more than 80 points only twice a year ago.
"We got about five or six easy layups in the second half because we pushed it," Flint said.
UMass welcomed back seniors Mike Babul and Mack after both players missed much of the preseason and both exhibition games due to injuries. Babul started and Mack came off the bench, but Mack finished with the second-most minutes (31) on the team. The team's top returning scorer and defender both stepped right back into their roles.
Mack led all scorers with 21 points, including his 1,000th career point. Tariq Kirksay led the Gaels with 20 points, but 15 of those came in the first half. After rotating defenders on Kirksay, Flint gave Babul the assignment full time after intermission. Kirksay scored only five points the rest of way, all from the line.
"He's a great defender. Wherever I went, he was there," Kirksay said. "I tried to work hard but he worked a little harder. He didn't do anything special, he's just special himself. He's not the strongest guy or the fastest guy. He's just a smart defender."
The Gaels exploited one of UMass' vulnerable areas in the first half by getting both Minuteman centers - Kitwana Rhymer and Micah Brand - into early foul trouble. But reserve big man Anthony Oates turned in a solid six-minute effort off the bench.
Despite only playing 11 minutes before fouling out, Rhymer scored a career-high 12 points and grabbed seven boards.
"He was just hacking and he got some dumb fouls," Flint said. "One of the reasons we got hammered on the boards in the first half is that he wasn't out there."
Mack and Rhymer were among three double-digit scorers for UMass. Kirkland chipped in 15, while Shannon Crooks and Jonathan DePina each had 11.
DePina shook off two early turnovers and the diminutive junior guard extended his solid preseason play into the regular season. He hit a 3-pointer midway through the half when UMass was still fighting for the lead, and a clutch jumper with just over a minute left and Iona threatening.
"The play where Jonathan hit the 3-pointer was the big play. That tied it," Flint said. "(The late jumper) was huge. Last year he would have up-faked and thrown it away. But he did it with confidence, too. He played great today."
The win put the Minutemen above .500 for the first time since the first game of last year.

sailingdog is right. The other techniques being batted around are a losing cause that will probably lead to either a poor job or a real mess. The veneer proposal, while interesting will be especially problematic. If the veneer has an adhesive backing, it will eventually fail due to moisture and flexing. If it doesn't have an adhesive backing, then getting it to stick over all those curves will be nearly impossible even with a vacuum bag.
One of the most comforting things about boat building is that people have been at it for a while and techniques for most things have been worked out over the years. The technique of adhering vertical furring strips to the hull and screwing the teak (or ash) horizontally across them is a valid one that works. Not to impugn and of the ideas posted, but often times skipping the proven steps isn't really a time saver after all, IMHO.
Pleas understand that I'm NOT slamming any ideas, only emphasing that traditional techniques are proven. Ideas are what this community are all about. Keep them coming.
