On this week's Fantasy Hoops Waiver Wire, three rookies, two veterans coming off injuries and, well, Andray Blatche.
Chauncey Billups, SG, L.A. Clippers - Mr. Big Shot has started a couple of games now, but is still only playing 19 minutes per game, so he's not exactly performing at his peak, but the 36-year-old is back from an Achilles injury that cost him 60 games and now it should only be a matter of time before he's playing closer to 30 minutes a game, at which point his production ought to be acceptable.
Kyle Singler, SF, Detroit - A second-round pick out of Duke in 2011, Singler played in Spain last season and has been very effective for the Pistons since joining the starting lineup. In 10 games since he was installed in the starting five, Singler has averaged 11.7 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.1 three-pointers per game, while shooting 51.8% from the field. The Pistons have been much more competitive with Singler in a prominent role, so expect his minutes to remain steady.
Shawn Marion, SF, Dallas - The 34-year-old may not be the stat-stuffer that he was during his peak years in Phoenix, but he still has a little Matrix left in him. In eight games since coming off the injured list, Marion has put up 9.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game, adding 1.0 steals per game. The Mavericks are a troubled team, but should always have time in the rotation for Marion, whose defensive ability keeps him in a regular role.
Andray Blatche, C/PF, Brooklyn - With Brook Lopez out, this enigmatic Nets big man is getting an opportunity. Over the last three games (the last two of which have been starts), Blatche is playing more than 30 minutes a night, averaging 17.0 points, 10.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game while shooting 52.5% from the field. Consistency is not Blatche's strong suit and his minutes could fall back when Lopez returns but, in the mean time, he is a tantalizing upside play.
Jeff Taylor, SG, Charlotte - A second-roundp pick out of Vanderbilt, Taylor has moved into the starting lineup and, over the last seven games, has been a productive contributor, averaging 10.7 points and 2.7 rebounds, but his real value comes with 2.0 steals and 1.8 three-pointers per game over that span. Taylor is just getting started on his career, so his scoring should improve over time, but if he keeps providing steals, he'll have a niche even for fantasy owners.
Dion Waiters, SG, Cleveland - Opportunities abound for the fourth overall pick in the 2012 draft, as he is getting playing time and opportunities to shoot. Waiters is playing 32 minutes per game, averaging 15.3 points per game (on 15.1 field goal attempts), but he's averaging more than 18 field goal attempts per game in the last eight games, averaging 17.3 points, 2.4 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game in that time. Waiters has the highest ceiling on this list, but there have been some erratic performances early in his career, so there is some bad to go with the good.

Speaking to reporters Tuesday, the Ohio Republican said he is skeptical of Syria's offer because of, quote, "the actors that are involved." Russia, a longtime Syria ally, is trying to broker an agreement, though Boehner did not mention Russia by name.
Boehner has supported Obama's call to use force against Syria as punishment for allegedly using chemical weapons against civilians, including children.
However, Boehner said other House members oppose Obama's plan because the president has not persuaded the American people it is necessary. Obama is to address the nation Tuesday night.

Being Clothed in His Righteousness
from R.C. Sproul Jun 13, 2010 Category: R.C. Sproul
The church is our mother, but it is Christ's bride. In this role, we are the objects of Christ's affection. We, corporately, are His beloved. Stained and wrinkled, in ourselves we are anything but holy. When we say that the church is holy or refer to her as "holy mother church," we do so with the knowledge that her holiness is not intrinsic but derived and dependent upon the One who sanctifies her and covers her with the cloak of His righteousness.

"Holy mother church"—historians are not certain who first said it. The statement has been attributed by some to Cyprian, by others to Augustine. The assertion has survived since the early centuries of Christian history—"Who does not have the church as his mother does not have God as his Father." From its earliest days, the church was given the appellation "mother." Keep Reading -

Something Old, Something New
from Eric Watkins Jun 10, 2010 Category: Tabletalk Magazine
How can confessional Reformed churches provide a safe haven for New Calvinists? A simple answer to this may fail to appreciate the diversity of each new Calvinist's spiritual pilgrimage, and thus runs the danger of not ministering particular grace to particular people in their particular situations. But that does not mean that there are not certain ideas (even general ones) that may be helpful for confessional pastors and churches to consider as they seek to minister to these weathered pilgrims seeking spiritual haven.

The Seven Kings of Revelation 17
from Keith Mathison Jun 09, 2010 Category: Articles
The description of the woman and the beast upon which she sits in 17:7–14 is one of the most difficult passages in the book of Revelation. As John marvels at the vision, an angel says, "I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast with seven heads and ten horns that carries her" (v. 7). The angel tells John that the beast he saw "was, and is not, and is about to rise from the bottomless pit and go to destruction" (v. 8a). The angel then says to John, "This calls for a mind with wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated; they are also seven kings, five of whom have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come, and when he does come he must remain only a little while. As for the beast that was and is not, it is an eighth but it belongs to the seven, and it goes to destruction" (vv. 9–11). Keep Reading -

FREE TRAINING OFFERED TO FRONT LINE STAFF IN WV's HOSPITALITY INDUSTRY
- Details
I recently organized, through our Braxton County CVB, a training session through WV Hospitality and Education Training (WVHEAT). The session is called WV Welcome and is designed to communicate the importance of front line staff to all visitors to WV. It emphasizes that our staff, are the "faces" of WV and are ambassadors for WV tourism.
A trainer came to our CVB and conducted a morning and an evening session with front line staff from Café Cimino Country Inn, the Days Hotel and the Microtel (the 3 local lodging facilities in Braxton County). This was an empowering and team building experience that I recommend to all hospitality and tourism business owners throughout the state. The training was free, which is, of course, always appreciated by employers.

Not content to take tourists into space, Virgin's Richard Branson on Tuesday unveiled a winged submarine that he plans to use for the first manned missions to the deepest ocean trenches.
Mr. Branson said he plans to pilot the 6-metre craft himself after fellow explorer Chris Welsh takes it down to the 12,000-metre deep Mariana Trench.
"The last great challenge for humans is to explore the depths of our planet's oceans," said the flamboyant entrepreneur when he introduced the carbon fibre and titanium craft at the Newport Harbour Yacht Club.
The 17-million-dollar submarine was originally commissioned by adventurer Steve Fosset, who died in 2007 in a plane crash as he was searching for a site on which to challenge for the world land speed record.
Mr. Branson, who made millions of dollars with Virgin Records before branching out with airlines and space tourism firm Virgin Galactic, said he hoped the craft would set as many as 30 world records. But his foremost motivation was to "educate the world about secrets hidden in its depths," to make scientific discoveries and catalogue new species, as well as to open the ocean to deep-sea tourism.
"Great businesses can come from great challenges," Mr. Branson said. "We believe there are thousands of people who would like to experience oceans, and become aquanauts."

"September is National Disaster Preparedness Month (NPM) so why not take some time to help prepare one of our more vulnerable populations in our community," Cal Fire Unit Chief Kelly Keenan of the Amador-El Dorado-Sacramento Unit said, referring to those with access or functional needs or disabilities. "Everyone's needs are unique and some may require a little more planning than others, but if you begin today and pledge to prepare for a disaster, you can soon rest assured you have done everything you can do to prepare for the worst but hope for the best."

Start by giving some serious thought to what you rely on each and every day, what you can do without and what you must have for sustaining life. Make a list and begin putting your disaster preparedness plan into action.
Create a kit that has all the supplies one would need to be on their own for a minimum of three days without public utilities such as power and water. Remember, you may not have access to stores, gas stations or even medical facilities.
Plan how you would evacuate from your home and where you could evacuate to in the event that is necessary. Are there special needs such as electricity for medical devices that you must plan for in advance?
Talk to your caregivers, family, friends and neighbors and share your plan and see where they might fit in to assist you if they are available to do so and if you need assistance.
Practice your disaster preparedness plan with your support group, test your communications plan to see how it works and adjust your plans to the time of year and type of disaster you are preparing for.
"There are many excellent Websites available that can aid you in facilitating your plan. Below is a list of just a few of them for your review. Remember Winston Churchill's famous line, 'He who fails to plan is planning to fail,'" said Keenan.

I'm not ipod
" @Fish_Face_McGee: Good one. "Yeah, the Zune HD is pretty damn nice, and Zune Pass is sweet too.
I don't have any portable music devices, but I want a Zune.
A few of my friends had them and they were sweet.
I love my iPod Touch.
I use my PSP Go since my girlfriend washed my ipod Nano.
I have a Zune and an iPod...I'm Microsoft fan with almost everything else, but the iPod rules in my mind.
I think the ipod music player is great, but ipod touch/phone and ipad are petty worthless. Like 90% of the apps are terrible, and touch screens have got to be the most overrated things to come along in a long time.
I'm an Android.
I loved my iriver Clix 2 until I broke it. I'm currently using my Samsung Galaxy Spica to listen podcasts and music (just have to get bigger sd-card... 1Gb is not enough!).
I've owned two Zunes (first gen) and used Zune Pass for a while. Best deal in music and a great player.
I sold them for rent money cuz I was broke though. I use some $9 SandDisk mp3 player with a whopping 512MB of storage nowadays. It's all I really need.
i use a zune which is now broken so its about time i upgrade to the zune hd.
This question is worded as if I like Apple. Which i dont. but i do have an ipod touch that i use mainly for Slacker Radio and internet browsing while im waiting for my classes to start. :D
" I'm a PC. "I'm a PC that loves my iPod.
I have tried many other mp3 players and I always come back to my iPod
Zune 80 man here. It's served me well, but both that I've had (includes warranty replacement) have lost their 'hold' toggle due to the shitty plastic. I'm considering buying the 64HD 'cause it's hawt. Also, I'm trying to find a cheap touch to fuck around with the SDK and maybe make an app or something.
I'm a PC. But I still use an iPod and iTunes.
Zune 120 with Zune Pass
I do dig my iPod classic.
Walkman - the recent ones are far better than any ipod ive seen.
I use a Sony Walkman E something. I can't see myself ever buying an iPod simply because I would have to rerip all 340 of the CDs I ripped before 2001. There are conversion programs available but I am not going to convert a lossy format to another lossy format. I actually usually only use it for exercise and mowing because if I'm in the car I use an actual CD and if I'm in the house I use regular CDs as well (2 Sony 300 disc changers connected in series circa 1999.)
iPod/iPhone is the only Apple product that I can touch without getting the urge to eat my own shoes.
My contract with ATT is up on the 31st and thanks to corporate, I'm stuck with them. So it's either the iPhone 4 or the Samsung Galaxy S (Captivate)... I'm thinking I better start liking iPhone, so that I can make a purely unbiased decision on that date.
" Zune. "yay, same here
iPod's are shite. Sorry.
" My contract with ATT is up on the 31st and thanks to corporate, I'm stuck with them. "
While it always sucks to get stuck with a particular service by your corporate overlords, if "corporate" in your case is a nationwide company AT & T is sadly the best choice. Verizon is really the only competitor that even comes close to matching AT&T's full national voice coverage much less data. My understanding is that AT& T can be crappy in parts of NYC and San Francisco (and I'm sure other locations as well as every provider has weak spots). I've been with Verizon for almost 2 years, and I can't wait for my contract to be up to switch back to AT & T. I had Cingular (now AT&T) for 6 years and never should have switched.
" iPod is the only Apple product that I can touch without getting the urge to eat my own shoes.
Zune hd
" Zune HD. Better as a pure music player, which is all I want it to be. I also prefer the Zune Software, and Zune-Pass is outstanding. "No fair. I only have the old 2nd generation Zune 80. :(
Classic all the way. Its a beast.
I suspect that I will get a touch when they announce a new model which should be sometime later this year.

I just got a pair of Smoke Jumpers and im wondering whats the best way to break them in.
Printable View
I just got a pair of Smoke Jumpers and im wondering whats the best way to break them in.
I wear them.
Put them on, stand in water trough until they are completely soaked, and wear them a FULL day! or until they are dry.
I use boot oil and wear them.
It helps to hike hills so that they get broken in for the type of terrain that causes the worst damage to feet.... ups and downs.
Thanks for the input everyone, and any suggestions for what type of socks i should get?
I wear two pair of socks... actually, just plain ol' cotton socks.
Whatever you wear, wear two pair. The socks rub against each other instead of against your skin (at least it reduces it).
I swear that's the secret of the good condition of my feet in my logger boots.
I like the regular cotton socks with wool or wool blend socks over those for my two pair. Gives a little more cushion for those 16hr days spent entirely on your feet.
I just saw this... How I break mine in are I soak them in water and wear them while I'm mucking corrals. Well that's how I did it when we had horses... Works really well, but i suggest that you wash them off before coming back in the house; Mama was upset about the mess..... :D
I break mine in just like I described but I wear thick socks...
Once they dry, oil them real good and wear them some more.

True or False: In a perfect world we'd all create html clickable wireframes after the static ones have been don
This seems to be a never-ending discussion, regarding methods of
design and development. I contract to have certain system/apps that
I've designed prototyped, but certainly not all nor even the majority.
I work on wireframes, graphical layouts and keyframes, intensive
flows, and comprehensive implementation documentation, and have done
so for numerous OS GUIs (starting back in the 80s), lots of medical
equipment and devices, complex military systems, and so many mobile
device, phone, smartphone, and media players that I can't even count
them. And I've envisioned and designed the entire dynamic experience
architectures and the layout of every screen, menu, sequential
pathway, and the general rules for extension and further development
in my head and then documented.
Many times in my career, the programmers implementing my interaction
design and interfaces have been remote, or have done all the
implementation afterward. I don't do websites, but this has included
lots of very complex systems and even some that had many different
types of applications within an overall OS application framework
(that I also designed).
If I'd mocked up or made interactive every thing I've designed since
1983, it would've taken much longer and would've taken time away from
intense detailing and functional management that I spent my time on
Nowadays, I and my partners will often have portions mocked up and
made interactive, mostly for show to our clients or execs while
implementation is underway. No engineers I work with would prefer to
have interactive models _in lieu of_ the kinds of implementational
documentation I've traditionally provided.
So mileage varies, and many of us that have been working in this
field for decades have developed a number of highly leveraging
methods for getting more designed faster, and implemented with
rigorous detail and consistency.
None of my most successful products and software were interactively
prototyped. If you know it and can see it in your head (upside down,
backward, and in every dimension dynamically), you can document it in
such a way that when it's implemented, it will be just as conceived.
Work out the details on paper, and learn to communicate with massive
detail (and in my projects, considerable attention to generalized
rules and patterns), and you'll do fine.
Don't ever let anyone tell you that there's only one way, or a best
way to design interaction. It's just not true.

Where in the World Is Pretty Little Liars Star Shay Mitchell?
Pretty Little Liars star Shay Mitchell (Emily Fields) is a global jetsetter. She often spends her breaks from PLL filming traveling to exotic and beautiful locations off the beaten path. Where is she this time? The answer might surprise you! Shay is hanging in Kenya! "Fetching water with the local mamas wasn't as easy as I thought! But it was a good a workout! :) #metowetrips@metowe @freethechildren," Shay captioned the Instagram photo of herself carrying a pack of water by looping the attached rope around her head. Impressive! And, might we say, it looks like the African sun is agreeing with Shay. She's all smiles! Shay is in the eastern African country with Me to We, "an innovative social enterprise that offers socially conscious and environmentally friendly products and life-changing experiences." (According to their Twitter handle.) The company gives half of its profits to the Free the Children charity. The PLLer has been chronicling her trip to Kenya through social media. In addition to the aforementioned Instagram, she also sent out this gorgeous photo of what her morning view looked like: the sun streaming through the Kenyan greenery. "Morning morning! #Kenya," she captioned the pic. Shay also gave a shout-out to some of the small friends she has made on her trip. She shared this photo of some smiling students hanging out of their school's window: "My little angels at the Emori Joi primary school!#freethechildren #metowetrips @freethechildren@metowe," she captioned the pic. Adorable! Are you surprised to learn Shay is in Kenya? Are you as jealous of her trip as we are? Sound off in the comments below!

What happened on Friday in Newtown is one of the worst moments in Modern American History. 9/11, Pearl Harbor, the Challenger & JFK. That bad. And now the talk will turn to blame. The gun guys will tell you guns don't kill people, people kill people. Actor/Politicians will Tweet super-original things like it's the media's fault for glorifying killers. Others will finger the separation of God and schools. Some might say America is mishandling its mentally ill. I go George Bush and Social Media.
George Bush ruined this country. When he stole that election from Al Gore, the US of A tumbled immediately into terrorism, all-out war, violence, natural disasters, and surging surpluses gone. Paradise finished. We lost two towers, four commercial flights, and the City of New Orleans. I'd say 'God' was sending America a bright-neon sign. When historians look back, the election of Bush will be the beginning of the end in America. Why are 400,000 teachers about to be laid off? Bush! Why are we in a Fiscal Cliff? Bush! Why are the roads and bridges crumbling? Bush! Why are college degrees useless? Bush! He ruined this country.
When Obama mercifully took office in 2009, the country was in the worst shape it's been since the 1930s. And before you blame Obama for not magically fixing the Great Recession remember it took the beloved FDR nine years to pull us out of the Great Depression. On this issue, what do you want Obama to do? Arm the teachers? Can anyone say Syria?
So here we are: 30 million hopelessly out of work, doing nothing but starting Facebook wars and posting statuses. Why? Bush! 30 million, that's more people than most countries total. Social Media has allowed the worst thing possible for any prospering empire: It's given uninformed people a voice and place to mobilize. Remember when you had to be an accredited journalist to have a media presence?
We are endlessly on the brink of war around the world, the rich are obnoxiously rich, the Middle Class is a shrinking image, and our 20-somethings want to be singer/songwriters/artists. Nobody wants to be an electrician or plumber or elevator repairman. Electricians don't shoot up schools. Failed songwriters with orange hair do that. They all want to be Snooki and the Situation. Everyone wants their fifteen minutes of fame, even if that fame comes on a suicide mission.
The American Dream is now a reality-TV, Down-to-the-Final-Eight ideology. It's no longer a modest house with a job and family. Everyone is going to be famous now, it's an American Right. Today's 20-somethings are going to be the first generation to fall short of their parents. You can thank George Bush who crippled this country's growth and Facebook for giving people a forum to 'fight back.'
What happens when that 21-year-old who wants to be a singer/songwriter/artist/actor realizes such a career is less likely than getting hit by lighting and winning the lottery? Is that when his desire to be talked about gives him the idea to shoot up a middle school or shopping mall? Plumbers don't shoot up shopping malls. Having people blog about you is better than a ranch house and raising kids on a carpenter's salary. It's the Fast-Food Approach. It's the new America.
George Bush turned America into a country club for the top 2%, while destroying the Middle Class on a fake war and unregulated mortgage practices that put a bullet in the housing market. Combine that with a culture of delusional, over-parented 20-somethings. You can be anything you want to be, Little Johnny. Who cares about ethic or talent? You deserve it. When you're young and unequipped to face rejection or challenge, there's no limit to what you could do to yourself or others. This is what happens when the present can't climb past the prior. My only fear is what's next? What will some wannabe singer/songwriter with access to guns do to be talked about on MSNBC? What could ever be worse than executing 20 elementary kids? I'm afraid we might soon find out.

Like many proponents of multiple use of public lands, I watched the SOTU address because I was intrigued by an announcement that the President would open up more natural gas development in the United States. In fact it was the only reason I watched the address. As you many of you probably know by now, my little corner of Utah is blessed with natural gas deposits. The natural gas industry comes with jobs, many of them good-paying jobs and also comes with the potential for the increase in private enterprise.
The extraction industry has accounted for the bulk of the economy in my neck of the woods and we've had a tough time making a go off it here since the results of the 2008 Presidential Election became reality. So I was a little let down when I discovered that the President planned to open up 75 percent of the offshore oil and gas resources. I was let down, but I understood the move. In a situation in which the country wants jobs, and the President needs votes, it makes all kinds of political sense that he announce that those states whose votes he needs will get the energy jobs. Whereas states like Utah which have the apparently bad habit of voting conservative, will have a tougher time with those energy jobs. That'll teach us to vote our conscience!
I asked The Uintah County Commissioners about their thoughts. They deal with land and issues on a daily basis from the local, all the way up to the federal level. As people who focus on the industry as part and parcel of their workaday lives, the commissioners noted that the President's words and his past actions did not match up. They commented that the President's statement that production has been up in recent years is true, however that production has been up on leases on private lands, presently out of reach of the regulatory arm of the federal government. In point of fact, while the Applications for Permission to Drill or APD's is up since 2009 the number is still much lower than before the sitting President took office, and the number of leases that have been approved for public land is miniscule compared to the amount that have been nominated. The chart below is compiled from data from the Utah State Office of the Bureau of Land Management. The blue bars represent the acres that were nominated for energy development while the yellow bars indicate the acres actually offered for development.

It's Apple week! We're examining the world's largest tech company from all angles. Stay tuned to Fool.com all week for full coverage.
There's a lot of money burning a hole in Apple's (Nasdaq: AAPL ) pocket these days. It has $23.2 billion in cash and short-term securities -- and another $18.5 billion in long-term marketable securities -- taking up space on its top heavy balance sheet.
What's Apple going to do with all of that money? It has resisted the call for paying out dividends, so it's unlikely to ease up just because its coffers have topped $40 billion. Its share count has inched higher over the past year, so it's not as if it's even spending some of its greenbacks on stock buybacks to offset the dilution.
So what's the deal, Apple? I've heard of saving up for a rainy day, but does Steve Jobs think he's Noah?
It's time for Apple to take on a more aggressive acquisition strategy. It's in the best interest of shareholders given the pittances being paid out on idle cash these days. It's also in the best interest for Apple to act now, before antitrust regulators cage Cupertino in.
Let's go over a few acquisitions that I believe make sense for Apple.
Adobe (Nasdaq: ADBE )
The same company that has put Adobe in a pickle with its reluctance to embrace Adobe's Flash in its iPhone and iPad devices is also the same one that should be on bended knee.
This isn't just about a testy battle over the compatibility of a still-popular video platform. Adobe would look good on Apple's arms as one delves deeper into Adobe's catalog of premium desktop publishing, website authoring, and video-editing software.
Adobe seemed to be the favorite acquisition target around Fooldom two years ago, and it still makes sense today. Apple and Adobe are may be engaged in a war of words, but Apple needs Adobe's support across its product lines to keep hardcore Mac users happy.
Yahoo! (Nasdaq: YHOO )
Don't laugh. Apple is inevitably going to make a splash in search, and Yahoo! is the only one of the three leading engines that is a feasible buyout candidate.
Yahoo! also happens to run the world's most popular free email platform. Really. It has more stateside users than Hotmail and Gmail combined. Why is this a big deal for Apple? Well, MobileMe is the company's premium service that pushes across several devices. The Yahoo! Mail freeloaders may seem like the wrong crowd to push a pay offering to, but the ability to reach the masses shouldn't be underestimated.
Does Yahoo! lack the 'cool' factor needed for Apple products? Perhaps, but let's not forget that Yahoo! also watches over the artist-centric Flickr community of artsy shutterbugs.
Yahoo! commands an enterprise value of $18 billion. It's a bit more than Apple would likely want to splurge on a single deal, but let's not forget the allure of Apple's ability to use its historically appreciating stock to sweeten any kind of transaction.
Netflix (Nasdaq: NFLX )
The leading flick delivery service is warming up to Apple's world. CEO Reed Hastings was one of the presenters during last week's introduction of the iPhone 4, announcing the summer availability of a Netflix streaming app for the iPhone. Netflix's application for streaming on the iPad was the top third-party download during its launch two months ago.
The Apple-ization of Netflix is long overdue. Hastings has historically leaned on Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT ) for everything from its playback platform to streaming first on Windows-powered PCs and Xbox consoles before competing options. Oh, and Hastings also sits on the Microsoft board.
Well, Hastings is coming around, and Netflix's strength rests in the one area where Apple has surprisingly come up empty. Apple TV has been a rare dud and its iTunes a la carte video rentals and purchases haven't exactly dominated the market the way Apple cornered music downloads.
In the meantime, Netflix is only getting more relevant with the couch potato set. It closed out its latest quarter with 14 million subscribers, targeting as many as 17.3 million accounts by the end of the year. Netflix clearly is in the pole position as optical discs race to the digital migration finish line, and it's a place where Apple would love to be.
A couple of years ago, a patent-rich TiVo (Nasdaq: TIVO ) may have been the better bet but its subscriber defections and legal setbacks make Netflix the real play in this space.
Akamai (Nasdaq: AKAM )
It was 11 years ago, during the peak of the dot-com bubble, that Apple acquired a 5% stake in the content-delivery network. The two have been chummy ever since, with Apple often relying on Akamai to serve up software downloads and QuickTime streams through its market-leading fleet of servers.
The rub against Akamai is that it toils away in a cutthroat industry, but this hasn't gotten in the way of consistent profitability and healthy growth. The commoditization of content delivery is trumped by sheer demand as we step deeper into the digital revolution.
Tech heavies may be taking baby steps in this niche, but it's all the more reason for Apple to boldly step into the shoes of the market champ.
Who do you think Apple will buy next? Share your thoughts in the comment box below and I'll be back next week to go over some of your suggestions.

Iraq: The Necessary Withdrawal
The passage by the Iraqi Parliament in late November of the US-Iraqi Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) adds credibility and urgency to President-elect Obama's pledge to get US troops out of Iraq by the midpoint of his first term. Bush's costly and illegal war has been a drain on the economy to the tune of a trillion dollars if hidden costs are included, a sum likely to triple in coming decades as the public pays for the care of injured veterans. The war has left tens of thousands of military personnel wounded, suffering from brain trauma or dead. The toll on Iraqis has been monumental. It cannot end too soon.
The general Iraqi hostility to the presence of foreign troops was apparent in the process whereby the SOFA was enacted. The fierce debates that it provoked signaled that there are only two major factions in Iraqi politics: those who want the United States out within a couple of years and those who want the United States out now.
The Washington debate on withdrawal, in contrast, has been peculiarly removed from reality since the early days of the presidential campaign. Such opponents of withdrawal as John McCain called it an act of "surrender," a waving of a white flag. (To whom would we have been surrendering?) The US military would have to stay in Iraq forever, they implied, because it would be too embarrassing to leave. They demanded "victory" but carefully avoided defining what they meant by the word. They warned that parts of Iraq, or even the entire country, would become an Al Qaeda base were the United States to depart. Even as they spoke, Shiite militias were systematically cleansing about half the Sunni Arab population from the capital and a Shiite prime minister was gathering military power into his hands. The Republican visions of Osama bin Laden occupying Saddam's palaces were paranoid fantasies.
The Bush administration initially pressed on Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki a SOFA text that all but formally reduced Iraq to a colony. The United States would control Iraq's air and water, would arrest and detain Iraqis at will and without the requirement of due process, would decide unilaterally what was a terrorist threat within the country and how to deal with it, and would initiate military action unilaterally. Its troops and private security contractors would enjoy complete immunity from Iraqi law. There was no timetable for US withdrawal. A year or two earlier, an Iraqi government might have had to just go along with it.
Maliki had long argued that he would not need US troops past 2009. Only in March and April 2008 did he prove, however, that he had won control of the increasingly well-trained and professional Iraqi military in ways that might allow him greater independence from the United States. Despite American advice to the contrary, he moved militarily against his main internal rival, the Shiite Mahdi Army, in Basra, Amara and Sadr City last spring. With that success under his belt, the prime minister had gained the confidence to push back against the Bush/Cheney imperium.
Despite his new role as commander in chief of a more confident Iraqi military, Maliki needs the support of other Shiite notables and parties to remain in power. His Islamic Dawa Party is relatively small. He depends on the support of Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, the spiritual leader of Iraq's Shiites, who strongly opposed any SOFA that infringed on Iraq's sovereignty. Maliki is also increasingly closely allied with the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq, the leading Shiite party in the Iraqi Parliament, which has close links to Iran. Both ISCI and its patrons in Tehran wanted to see a timetable established for US troop withdrawals from Iraq. Not only is Iran threatened by the massive US troop presence on its borders but the occupation of Muslim countries by a non-Muslim military is anathema to the Islamic Republic. One of the grievances Ayatollah Khomeini had voiced as he made the Islamic Revolution in Iran in the 1970s was that US troops based in Iran enjoyed immunity from Iranian law.
In the end, by dint of hard bargaining and brinkmanship, Maliki secured a very different sort of agreement from the lame-duck Bush. As of January 1, the US military will have to get permission from Iraqi authorities for military operations. Off-duty, off-base US troops who commit crimes might theoretically be liable to prosecution before an Iraqi judge. Civilian security contractors will be under Iraqi law. US combat troops will withdraw from all Iraqi cities to bases by the end of June, ending their unilateral neighborhood patrols. By 2011 they will be out of the country altogether, and the Iraqi government can advance the deadline by a simple request. Some US commanders may engage in foot-dragging in meeting these deadlines, setting the stage for conflicts between Washington and Baghdad. But with Obama and Maliki committed to the withdrawal of US combat troops, it is clear that Bush's hopes for long-term bases have been dashed.
Perhaps never before in history has an invader that won a crushing military victory, and that continued to occupy its prize, voluntarily accepted such humiliating terms from the vanquished. It is difficult to discern how Bush's agreement differs from the "surrender" Democrats were accused of advocating when they put forward a similar timetable for complete withdrawal.
Even with all these concessions, the agreement only got 54 percent of Parliament's 275 potential votes, barely an absolute majority, precisely because so many Iraqi political forces found the idea of formally authorizing the further presence of US soldiers on Iraqi soil so distasteful. Powerful Shiite fundamentalist parties such as the Sadr movement and the Fadhila (Virtue) Party rejected it altogether, and the latter boycotted the vote. The Sunni Arab representatives held their noses while mostly voting for it but required that a national referendum be held on the pact. (It is scheduled for July and is not assured of passage.) In the aftermath of negotiations, the Shiite clerical establishment expressed concerns that the agreement infringed too much on Iraq's sovereignty.
Even though the SOFA allows for an extension of the 2011 deadline by mutual consent, the Obama administration would be unwise to keep US troops in Iraq beyond it. As the drawdown proceeds, the smaller numbers left behind will become increasingly vulnerable to attack, and a plurality of Iraqis clearly still means them harm. Sistani is increasingly impatient with the foreign occupation, and an explicit fatwa, or legal ruling, from him forbidding the continued presence of US soldiers could set 15 million Iraqi Shiites virulently against those remaining.

Professor Eric Fung
Dr. Eric Fung was the second-prize
ex aequo
winner at the Thirteenth International Johann Sebastian Bach Competition in Leipzig, Germany. Prior to this important achievement, he was the recipient of the first prize at the Corpus Christi Young Artists International Competition (1996), second prize at St. Louis Symphony Concerto Competition (1997), and first prize at the Juilliard School Concerto Competition, which led to his performance of Brahms' Piano Concerto No. 1 at the Lincoln Center in 2000. Subsequent to the performance, Anthony Tommasini of the
New York Times
praised his pianism for being "mature, refined, and elegant." He was also described by the
New York Concert Review
as a pianist with a musical persona akin to Rudolph Serkin. The Hong Kong Economic Review called him "unique among the contemporary Chinese pianists, for the aesthetic of his music can be traced back to the study and passion for Bach's works."
As an active solo and chamber performer, Dr. Fung has appeared in various music festivals, such as the European Piano Forum in Berlin (Germany), the Puigcerda International Classica Musica (Spain), and the Philadelphia Bach Festival. In 2003, he returned to his native Hong Kong to perform at the Hong Kong Arts Festival as an Exxon-Mobil Artist. The first recital was quickly sold-out and an extra performance was needed to be scheduled immediately to accommodate the enthusiastic audience. In the following year, he made his piano recital debut at the Carnegie Hall performing Bach's
Goldberg Variations
and Beethoven's
Eroica Variations
. The
New York Concert Review
applauded his rendition of the
Goldberg Variations
for having "vibrant vitality...unflappable logic, flexibilities in nuances and requisite lyricism." Since 2005, he has been giving regular solo recitals as well as collaborative performances with his wife, cellist Dr. Ai-lin Hsieh, who is also a faculty member at Lebanon Valley College. In 2007, he was appointed artist-in-residence by the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and was also invited by the Government of Hong Kong to perform in a ten-piano ensemble. As a concerto soloist, he has collaborated with the Juilliard Orchestra, Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, Middle Germany Chamber Orchestra, Manhattan Chamber Orchestra, Hershey Symphony Orchestra, Lebanon Valley College Orchestra, the Central Pennsylvania Symphony Orchestra, and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University Orchestra. In 2011, Eric Fung and his childhood friend, pianist Kinwai Shum, formed a piano duo and gave their debut performances at the City Hall in Hong Kong to an enthusiastic audience and a full-house at Yulan Theatre in Dongguan, China.
For a full list of his performances, click here.
As a musician, Eric Fung has a deep interest in searching for a new sensibility in the performance of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century music through analysis and research. Since the completion of his doctoral thesis "Neglected Treasure: Johann Sebastian Bach's Overture in the French Manner, BWV 831: A Study in Motive, Harmony, and Voice Leading", he has been invited to give lectures and seminars on analysis and performance by various professional societies. In addition to the Doctor of Music Arts degree he received from the Juilliard School, Dr. Fung also holds a Bachelor of Music degree, a Master of Music degree in piano performance, and a Master of Arts degree in Music Theory Pedagogy from the Eastman School of Music. His piano teachers include Natalya Antonova, Martin Canin, Eva Lue, and Oxana Yablonskaya. He has received coaching from such prominent piano pedagogues as Boris Berman, Christopher Elton, Claude Frank, Peter Frankl in master classes and international music festivals. He also studied analysis with Matthew Brown, Steven Laitz, and Carl Schachter.
Eric Fung is currently a tenured associate professor of piano at Lebanon Valley College in Pennsylvania. As an educator, he has conducted master classes at other higher education institutions and professional organizations, such as East Tennessee State University, Hope College (Mich.), University of Illinois at Carbondale, the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, and the Tom Lee Music Foundation. Since 2005, he has been invited frequently to adjudicate competitions, such as the Lancaster Symphony (Pa.) Concerto Competition, the Greater Princeton (N.J.) Steinway Society Scholarship Competition, and the New Jersey Music Teachers Association Piano Competition.
Dr. Eric Fung has been recently named a Steinway Artist and Steinway piano is his preferred instrument for international performances.

Re: Arrow - Season 2
I though the island stuff was pretty good, but I really liked the stuff with The Count. He's been one of my favorite villains so far, and I thought he went out with a strong appearance. I was pretty shocked to see Ollie actually kill him, but it did seem appropriate in the situation. I knew that Barrowman was coming back, but I did not expect it to actually be a scene in the present. I did not expect the Thea reveal, but now that it's been revealed, it's really not that surprising. I'm still wondering if all of these deaths and references to having died, and the presence of the League of Assassin's means we will see a Lazarus Pit sometime soon.

Calling witnesses such as the families of those who died wouldn't really have achieve anything and been of minimal relevance to the case. Would have been up to the defence to try and prove mitigation because there was no doubt of her involvement in the conspiracy. And who could the defence really have called?

Re: Arrow - Season 2
What was worse was the entire secret evidence thing. There is this thing called disclosure. It requires that each side provide any and all evidence beforehand so that neither is blindsided. The DA would have had to disclose the evidence that Moira slept with Merlyn long before the trial started. If the evidence only just became available, then it would have to be disclosed before it could be used. However I can live with unrealistic courtroom drama because TV courtroom drama has never been that realistice. What I want to know is, where did they get that "proof" that Moira slept with Merlyn? |

Re: Arrow - Season 2
I remember an episode last season where some dude O.D.ed shortly after leaving Ollie's night club and Lance suspected that Tommy and Ollie were involved in selling Vertigo. Lance subpoenaed their accounting books and LATER THAT SAME DAY, Lance's partner told him that they had found a thousand dollars missing from the books. That is one helluva forensic accountant working for Starling City to find a thousand dollar discrepancy after just a few hours of pouring over their books! LaxScrutiny, you also brought up a good point about disclosure. When Laurel came to Moira with her "secret weapon" info, she said something like, "I could get dis-barred for telling you this."* Or, Laurel, you could just be following the rules of discovery by telling the opposing side any new information learned over the course of the trial. * Giving her the benefit of the doubt, I'll assume she was referring to speaking with Moira without her attorney present on the "dis-barring" thing, but that's a generous assumption given how the writers mangled every other legal aspect of this episode. |
