BTI's Rants and Ramblings: Could UK Be On All NBA Teams by 2020?
By Bryan the Intern on ©May 28th, 2015 @ 9:17am
Posted in Main | Leave a response
Currently Kentucky has a total of 18 alumni spread over 14 NBA teams. Another 7 guys will be headed into the league next season. That is a possible 25 players at the beginning of the 2015-16 season. Of course, guys like Nazr Mohammed and Tayshaun Prince will have to see if they are signed to play somewhere as their contracts have expired. But the point is that Kentucky is beginning to dot a lot of teams in the professional ranks. But would it be possible to have a UK player on each and every NBA team? Below are all the NBA teams with players who are still under contract for next season PLUS the 7 potential draft picks at various locations based on mock drafts:
TORONTO: Patrick Patterson
BOSTON: James Young
PHILADELPHIA: Nerlens Noel
CLEVELAND: Dakari Johnson (#53 pick)
INDIANA: Willie Cauley-Stein (#11 pick)
DETROIT: Jodie Meeks
ATLANTA: Andrew Harrison (#50 pick)
WASHINGTON: John Wall
MIAMI: Trey Lyles (#10 pick)
CHARLOTTE: Michael Kidd-Gilchrist
PHOENIX: Archie Goodwin, Eric Bledsoe
SACRAMENTO: Demarcus Cousins
L.A. LAKERS: Julius Randle
HOUSTON: Terrence Jones
DALLAS: Aaron Harrison (#52 pick)
NEW ORLEANS: Anthony Davis
OKLAHOMA CITY: Devin Booker (#14 pick)
MINNESOTA: Karl-Anthony Towns (#1 pick)
That would be a total of 19 UK players on 18 different NBA teams. Chuck Hayes, Patrick Patterson, Brandon Knight, Nazr Mohammed, Rajon Rondo and Enes Kanter are all free agents.
-Safe estimate: 4 of those 6 guys resign for next year. Let's toss out Mohammed and Prince. That would be 23 UK players.
-UK will likely be adding Skal, Briscoe, and Marcus Lee to some NBA roster within the next 2 years. That's 26.
-And then if Calipari stays another 3-5 years, you can expect another 2-4 draft picks every year.
I can envision a scenario where if things fall into place correctly and certain guys can last in the league, that Kentucky will have OVER 30 players in the NBA by the beginning of the 2018 season. And here is the great thing: most of the guys currently in the league and several of the ones projected to go into the league will be long-term NBA players.
So could it ever happen? Could Kentucky get over 30 NBA players playing at the same time in the league? Sure, it is very unlikely they would be spread out over the 30 NBA teams, but just focus on the number itself. 30 NBA players at the same time. Thoughts?

Wedding C-A-T-S Fans' Wednesday Night News and Views
By Drew Franklin on ©May 27th, 2015 @ 11:30pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | 1 Response
There are UK wedding photos and then there is the one above I received on the Twitter machine earlier this week. I don't know how or why the Louisville Cardinal was at the wedding, but shout-out to the four Cats fans in the photo for shaming it. You are tonight's Fans of the Night. You can pick up your prize of free KSR for life any time you're on the internet. Congratulations!
Getting a late start tonight after a 10 pm homecooked meal and a five-mile run around the neighborhood. Completely joking about the five-mile run. I don't run.
Let's do this…
John Calipari said someone will have to "uproot him" to get him to leave Lexington.
Calipari is at the SEC Spring Meetings in Sandestin this week and he was asked on Wednesday if he plans to stick around Lexington. (Because of course he was; it's all he hears this time of year.)
Cal's response was one of his best we've heard on the subject:
"It took me 20 years to get the job. For me to leave something like this, you're going to have to uproot me. That's how I feel." [The Cats Pause]
There have been rumors of him bolting to the NBA this summer, like every other offseason, and former UK assistant Slice Rohrssen said it's something that will continue to happen each year. Slice told sNY.tv, "My feelings are that [Calipari] will always be in demand for an NBA job because he's a players' coach and he's coached as many NBA players as there are out there now except he got them before they hit the NBA."
Between his outrageous new contract and his ability to change the lives of young kids here at Kentucky, it would take the perfect job to "uproot" Calipari out of Lexington at this point. And that job isn't popping up in the NBA any time soon, if ever.
Calipari questioned NCAA referees' guts under new rule change.
The NCAA rules committee has asked officials to call more fouls in 2015-16 to reduce the physicality of the game. It's not the first time we've heard things will be called tighter, and Coach Cal wonders what will be different this time around.
Again from the SEC Meetings, Calipari said:
"Here's what the question will be: How long will they keep calling the fouls? Two years ago, we started this and then no one had the stomach for it. The teams that advanced in the NCAA Tournament that year fouled on every possession. So then we all — me included — went back to football practice. 'That's it. Put helmets on. Let's go. That stuff was a bunch of BS.' And by the end of the year, that's how we played and basically made it to the Final Four playing football." [CBSSports.com]
If you recall, right around the time of the tweak heading into the 2014 postseason, Calipari said he turned his practices into football workouts.
"The football practice today is going to get us ready to be fouled and play offensively through it," he said at the time. "And also, we're going to foul. Now you're going to call them on everybody now, but we'll foul now and be physical. Our arms are going to be up. You're going to see their hands. And that's how we've got to play."
You can understand his reluctance to believe the "change" next season.
So how 'bout those drunk tweets from Garrick Sherman?
Safe to say Tom Izzo is probably a little pissed at his former player, who will wake up with a WTF DID I DO hangover in the morning.
Honestly, I didn't mind the tweet about "Kentucky players' salaries," but this one CROSSED THE LINE:
Taylor swift is way hotter now but her music sucks way more balls. Which is probably the second biggest dilemma in my life
— Garrick Sherman (@gsherm11) May 27, 2015
1989 is a classic.
The Knicks are considering Willie Cauley-Stein with the fourth pick.
ESPN's Chad Ford has heard from two separate sources that Phil Jackson has eyes on Cauley-Stein with the fourth pick in the draft. The Knicks want a defender and the Kentucky big man is the best in the class. Of course, trading the pick and loading up on free agents is still the most likely route for New York, but it's nice to hear Cauley-Stein's name mentioned as a top-four prospect.
Greg Monroe, Marc Gasol and DeAndre Jordan will also get looks from Jackson to fill the center position.
I really can't say enough good things about Bloodline on Netflix.
The first three or four episodes are a little slow, but hang in there. It took me a couple weeks to get through the early part of the season but I couldn't shut it off once things picked up. I binge watched seven episodes last night until around 4:00 am because there was no putting the finale on hold. Had to get there and it did not disappoint.
Andrew Harrison will work out for the Indiana Pacers tomorrow.
Hopefully he's off the board when the Pacers pick at No. 43. The best scenario is he goes 32nd to his hometown Houston Rockets if he's not a first-rounder.
And I don't know how the hell he can return to Indianapolis this soon. It's been almost two months since you-know-what and there's not enough money in Mark Emmert's personal NCAA safe to get me to go back to that city.
It's Warriors vs. Cavs in The Finals.
Too bad we have to wait over a week for Game 1. Who ya got?
Ryan Lemond and I will co-host Friday's show and we'd love your suggestions.
Matt's leaving us with the ship on Friday before two weeks of guest hosts and we're open to ideas for the show. We may run it back with #AskAnythingFriday or we may bring on a third co-host if someone tosses out the right suggestion. Write us on Twitter or in the comments section if you have someone or something in mind. If not, we'll just try not to break anything.

"We Ask You Wednesday" Vol. 46

Posted in Main | 2 Responses
The season is sadly now over, and the folks here at KSR love getting your input on things… relevant and bizarre. We have to get a little creative around here sometimes. Last summer I started a weekly series called "We Ask You Wednesdays," that brought in some great responses from many readers via Twitter.
Each week, the question will change and we will hit on a variety of topics, mostly UK-related… but you never know. Each week the best responses will make it on to the website. This week's twenty ninth volume of the "We Ask You Wednesday" allowed Kentucky fans to answer the following question via Twitter in 140 characters or less: IF YOU COULD PICK ANY 2 GUEST HOSTS FOR KENTUCKY SPORTS RADIO (OTHER THAN THE ONES WHO HAVE ALREADY BEEN SELECTED), WHO WOULD YOU PICK AND WHY?
That's a lot of girth for one airwave…

Official Coaches' Itinerary For The SEC Spring Meetings 2015
By Drew Franklin on ©May 27th, 2015 @ 8:45pm
Posted in Basketball, Football, Main, Top Story | Leave a response
Welcome to the Hilton Sandestin!
If you're reading this, you've checked into the hotel and made your way to your room to begin a four-day stay at our beautiful Northwest Florida resort. I hope you like the gift basket we left bedside… Golden Flakes, YUM!
Once again, we here at the Hilton Sandestin have the privilege of hosting you and the SEC Spring Meetings, and we're thrilled to have you back! Last year was such an amazing event (aside from Frank Martin powerbombing a staff member through a glass table for dropping his luggage) and we expect another great week in 2015!
As always, we're here to make your stay as pleasurable as possible, so don't be afraid to ask for anything. If we don't have it, we'll get it; and if we can't get it, one of Nick Saban's booster friends can! (Kidding, Nick!)
Below you will find the official itinerary provided by the SEC for the week's events. We'll be seeing you around!
7:00 – 9:00 am: Complimentary Breakfast in the Sandcastles Restaurant
Located off the resort lobby, Sandcastles is the one restaurant at Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa that will offer a full breakfast, free of charge. The menu will vary by day, ranging from fresh and cooked-to-order a la carte options to a wide spread on our breakfast buffet.
9:30 am: The New 'Cost of Attendance' Legislation And Its Impact On The League, Emerald Ballroom
The hottest topic at this year's SEC Springs Meetings is the new 'Cost of Attendance' legislation passed by the Power 5 conferences back in January. Many of you have raised concerns with the discrepancies in COA payments and the implications it will have on recruiting balance, so we will address the method of calculation and its impact in our first symposium of the week.
11:00 am: Making The Case For Satellite Camps w/ Mark Richt, Coral Ballroom
Georgia head coach Mark Richt will make the case for change in the SEC's hard stand against satellite football camps. Richt and many other league coaches have been very vocal about removing the ban against satellite camps, and this year we will open the discussion for change in the ruling.
12:00 pm: Lunch, Seagar's Prime Steaks and Seafood
Destin's only – and Northwest Florida's first – AAA Four-Diamond restaurant. Seagar's presents fresh seafood dishes and steaks rated USDA Prime Black Diamond (the highest designation the U.S. government gives) in an elegant, romantic and intimate setting.
Or order it from your room!
1:00 pm: Kevin Stallings Complains About Things, Sandpiper Room
For the fifth consecutive year, Kevin Stallings will lead the Kevin Stallings Complains About Things workshop on the first afternoon at the SEC Spring Meetings. All coaches and league personnel are encouraged to attend the entire two-hour discussion, where Kevin Stallings complains about things from around the league.
As in years past, we ask everyone to remain silent while Kevin Stallings complains about things.
Also important to note: this year's Kevin Stallings Complains About Things was moved to the Sandpiper Room after Stallings' complaints about the aesthetics and inadequate podium lighting in the Pelican Room.
3:00 pm: Rookie Initiation, Basement
A mandatory event for Jim McElwain and Mike White (Florida), Ben Howland (Mississippi State), Rick Barnes (Tennessee) and Avery Johnson (Alabama), this year's Rookie Initiation is going to be a blast!
As per usual, only returning SEC head coaches are permitted to lead the initiations, with the exception of Frank Martin, who we've repeatedly warned about waterboarding at official SEC events.
Also, hotel staff has prohibited the use of cattle prods and open flames this year after the Donnie Tyndall incident of 2014.
6:00 pm: Andy Kennedy's SEC Spring Meetings Welcoming Party, Hooters Emerald Coast Pkwy
Andy Kennedy will be at Hooters on the first night of the SEC Spring Meetings for a 10th consecutive year. He's asked that someone please join him this time. If he's the only one who shows up, it will be the final Andy Kennedy's SEC Spring Meetings Welcoming Party.
Transportation will be provided. (American drivers only.)
6:00 – 7:30 am: Weight Training w/ Steve Spurrier, Fitness Center
The Ol' Ball Coach is back for an 11th year with his Wednesday morning voluntary workout session at the SEC Spring Meetings. This year Spurrier will conduct a light-weight muscle-builder workout in the fitness center, followed by a brief photo opportunity and Bloody Marys.
Bandanas provided. Shirts prohibited.
7:00 – 9:00 am: Complimentary Breakfast in the Sandcastles Restaurant
9:30 – 11:30 am: Sand-tasting with Les Miles.
For those of you who aren't too full after breakfast, Les Miles will host his annual sand-tasting event on the beach just outside the Hilton Sandestin. Miles, known for eating grass before LSU football games, will also defend his trophy in the sand-eating contest. He ate a record 16 lbs. of sand in just under five minutes in 2007.
12:00 pm: NCAA-sanctioned cookout with Bruce Pearl
Auburn's head coach will host an outdoor barbecue at Barefoot's Beachside Bar & Grill, overlooking the resort's stunning beach and two outdoor pools.
Pearl will be serving his infamous Infraction Burgers and Aaron Craft Mac and Cheese.
1:00 – 5:00 pm: How To Beat John Calipari and Kentucky, Coral Ballroom
If anyone has any idea how to beat John Calipari and Kentucky, please be in the Coral Ballroom at 1:00 pm. All league basketball coaches will be in attendance to, hopefully, develop a game plan that could potentially take down the Cats. Our hope is that, together, we can come up with something. Anything.
John Calipari will not attend. He will fly to Drake's "Jungle Tour" concert in Auburn Hills for the night.
6:00 pm: A Farewell Toast to Commissioner Mike Slive, Sandcastles Lounge
Join us for a cocktail party in honor of Mike Slive, who will step down in July after 13 years of service as league commissioner. As the seventh commissioner of the Southeastern Conference, Slive has overseen perhaps the greatest era of success since the league was founded in 1933.
Turn up!
6:30 – 7:00 am: Steve Spurrier's 30-Minute Abs, Fitness Center
You came to the SEC Spring Meetings to talk conference improvement, but thanks to Steve Spurrier, you can leave with rock hard abs. Spurrier will teach his patented 30-Minute Abs class prior to breakfast Thursday morning.
Wash down that core work at the leftover Bloody Mary bar.
7:00 – 9:00 am: Complimentary Breakfast in the Sandcastles Restaurant
9:30 – 10:30 am: Ben Howland's "How To Convince A Five-Star Recruit To Live In Starkville," Emerald Ballroom
Mississippi State's Ben Howland will give a financial lecture on how to sign an elite recruit in one of the worst college towns in America. Howland will not only teach his ways, he will explain how to convince people to believe it's "because his dad played there."
This event is sponsored by Adidas.
10:30 am – 12:00 pm: John Calipari Autograph Signing, Barefoot's Deck
Calipari, back from Wednesday night's Drake concert, will sign autographs for all SEC Spring Meeting attendees. Each attendee is allowed one signed 8×10 photo, provided in your registration packets. Due to time constraints, Calipari will not be able to sign any additional items, as he has to fly to Chicago for the Drake concert at the United Center. He will return Friday morning.
12:00 pm: Lunch, Hadashi Sushi
Hadashi Sushi Bar at Hilton Sandestin Beach Golf Resort & Spa allows our guests to sample authentic Japanese sushi in a warm and inviting setting, often with live piano music playing in the background.
1:00 – 3:00 pm: The Billy Donovan Memorial Beach Olympics
Competitive events include:

3:00 – 7:00 pm: Live taping of The Paul Finebaum Show
Only Nick Saban and Gus Mahlzan required to attend.

4:00 – 5:00 pm: Outkicking Your Coverage with Bret and Jen Bielema, Serenity Spa
Bret Bielema is back again to explain how to parlay your power as an SEC head coach into landing a smoking hot wife.
6:00 pm: A Farewell Toast to LSU head coach Johnny Jones, Sandcastles Lounge
Join us for a cocktail party in honor of Johnny Jones, who will undoubtedly be fired at the conclusion of the 2015-16 season when his team is eliminated in the first round of the NIT. With a talented roster that includes Ben Simmons, the best player in college basketball, Jones will underachieve once again in his final season in Baton Rouge, and the league.
So join us in his final SEC Spring Meetings! Turn up!
6:30 am: Steve Spurrier's Full-Body Exercise-Ball Workout, Fitness Center
Steve Spurrier will be in the Fitness Center one last time for attendees interested in a workout before heading home.
Or what's left of the Bloody Mary bar.
7:00 – 9:00 am: Complimentary Breakfast in the Sandcastles Restaurant
9:30 am: Final Send-Off, Grand Ballroom
We will gather in the Hilton Sandestin's Grand Ballroom for our final meeting at the 2015 SEC Spring Meetings. Commissioner Slive will review the progress throughout the week and the mission ahead as everyone returns to their respective schools around the south to prepare for the 2015-16 academic year.
Enjoy your stay and GO SEC!!!
Calipari wonders if refs will "have the stomach" to blow the whistle
By Drew Franklin on ©May 27th, 2015 @ 8:00pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | 2 Responses
The NCAA rules committee hopes to reduce physicality in college basketball next season by encouraging officials to call more fouls, but at least one person, John Calipari, wonders if the officials will follow through in the moment.
When speaking at the SEC Spring Meetings today, Calipari said, "Here's what the question will be: How long will they keep calling the fouls?"
"Two years ago, we started this and then no one had the stomach for it. The teams that advanced in the NCAA Tournament that year fouled on every possession. So then we all — me included — went back to football practice. 'That's it. Put helmets on. Let's go. That stuff was a bunch of BS.' And by the end of the year, that's how we played and basically made it to the Final Four playing football."
Get 'em, Cal!!!
(But really, Julius Randle got gang-tackled every time he touched the ball.)
Calipari on leaving UK: "You're going to have to uproot me"
By Drew Franklin on ©May 27th, 2015 @ 7:00pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | Leave a response
Darrell Bird from The Cats Pause is in Sandestin for the SEC Spring Meetings this week and he has quite the quote from John Calipari regarding the likelihood Cal leaves UK for the NBA.
"It took me 20 years to get the job," Calipari said. "For me to leave something like this, you're going to have to uproot me. That's how I feel."
The opportunity to help young kids achieve their dreams remains Calipari's No. 1 reason for staying put in Lexington. When he spoke to Cleveland last year about taking over the Cavs, he wanted to how he could keep making a difference, because winning a title or making the Cavs money "doesn't move his boat."
Read a lot more here, including quotes on Cal's future from Mitch Barnhart.

Usually Kentucky has Tennessee beat when it comes to bizarre news stories, but this one made me turn around and actually listen to the Channel 5 news this evening.
Police in Franklin, Tennessee charged 28-year-old Anna Thomas with a DUI after she crashed her SUV into a mailbox. Sounds like your run of the mill DUI story right? Until you find out that Thomas had 13 empty cans of whipped cream scattered across her vehicle. Putting two and two together, police allege Thomas, who was disoriented at the scene, was high off the gasses she inhaled from the cans. She was hospitalized after the wreck and has been charged with DUI and failure to report a crash.
Here's her SUV and the broken brick mailbox:
And all 13 empty cans of whipped cream:
At least she spiced it up with some M&Ms and chocolate milk?
Are the Knicks targeting Willie with the 4th pick?

Posted in Basketball, Main | Leave a response
The latest mock drafts have Willie Cauley-Stein going anywhere from 5th to 13th, but in his Draft Chat this afternoon, ESPN's Chad Ford says the New York Knicks may be targeting Willie with the fourth pick:
And two different sources today told me the Knicks are also looking strongly at Willie Cauley-Stein. They want a strong defender in New York which explains the Winslow and Cauley-Stein interest. Of course, I also think there's a good chance they just trade this pick if the right veteran comes around. But for me, I think they really should keep it. Lots of talent with long-term potential where they are drafting.
A character like Willie in NYC? That makes way too much sense.
Meanwhile, Ford says there is still no resolution on whether the Minnesota Timberwolves will take Jahlil Okafor or Karl Towns with the first pick; in fact, he says D'Angelo Russell may now be in the mix. Ugh.
To read more of Ford's scoop, head on over to the Worldwide Leader.
Louisville signee facing assault charges because of course

Posted in Football, Main | 12 Responses
Stop me if you've heard this one before: a future Louisville player is going to trial for criminal charges. This time around, it's defensive end signee Devonte Fields, who will go to trial for misdemeanor assault in June. Fields, a former TCU player who was named Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year, was charged with assault last July after he allegedly hit his ex-girlfriend.
TCU dismissed fields after his arrest and he spent a year at Trinity Valley Community College in Texas before signing with Louisville. He took anger management classes in hopes the charge would be dismissed, but will now go to trial on June 17. The Class A misdemeanor is punishable by up to one year in jail and a $4,000 fine.

Earlier today, I shared Draft Express' scouting report on Andrew Harrison and now, Jeff Goodman is reporting that Andrew will work out for the Indiana Pacers tomorrow, along with Terry Rozier, Dez Wells, Terran Petteway, JP Tokoto, and Rashad Vaughn.
The Pacers have the 11th and 43rd picks in the draft. Andrew is projected to go anywhere from 30th to undrafted in the latest mocks.
Make us proud, Andrew.

Slice says Calipari will always be courted by NBA teams
By Mrs. Tyler Thompson on ©May 27th, 2015 @ 3:00pm
Posted in Basketball, Main | 10 Responses
Last night, LeBron James and the Cavs advanced to the NBA Finals, giving Cleveland a chance to end its 51-year championship drought. The news was obviously huge for Cavs fans, but there were plenty of sighs of relief across the Bluegrass as well. After putting the Cavs in the finals in his first season, David Blatt appears to be in Cleveland to stay, meaning LeBron and the front office won't be coming after John Calipari again for the foreseeable future.
On today's show, Matt and Ryan discussed Cal's NBA prospects, and Matt said he believes that Cleveland sticking with Blatt makes Calipari retiring at Kentucky more and more likely. Matt argued that as the years go by and Cal gets older–he's 56 right now–his NBA appeal will decline because teams will go after younger coaches.
Meanwhile, in an interview with SNY.tv, Cal's former assistant Slice Rohrssen said he thinks Cal will always be courted by NBA teams:
"My feelings are that he will always be in demand for an NBA job because he's a players' coach and he's coached as many NBA players as there are out there now except he got them before they hit the NBA," Rohrssen told SNY.tv.
Slice also said he thinks coaching at the next level will always appeal to Cal:
"He lives for challenges," he said. "He creates his own and he sets his bar high. There's a confidence in him that allows him to strive for the goals and the bar that he sets."
My opinion falls somewhere in between. I think Cal is totally engrossed in his mission to change families' lives in his position as Kentucky's coach; however, if the right team with the right players and the right amount of control came calling at the right time, I think he would consider it. Cal being Cal, he couldn't help himself.
UK Basketball scores a 995 on its APR
By Mrs. Tyler Thompson on ©May 27th, 2015 @ 2:21pm
Posted in Basketball, Football, Main | 2 Responses
Last week, Kentucky and Duke were recognized by the NCAA for finishing among the top 10 percent of men's basketball teams in the academic progress ratings (APR). This afternoon, the scores were released and UK's four-year composite is 995, only five points shy of perfect. (The four-year composite covers the 2010-11, 2011-12, 2012-13 and 2013-14 seasons.) In fact, the men's basketball team was one of 14 UK sports teams to get a perfect score for the 2013-2014 season.
Meanwhile, UK football's four-year composite is 945, well above the NCAA cut of 930. All 22 of UK's sports teams surpassed the NCAA cut score, 18 of the 22 squads exceeded the national average, and 19 of the 22 Wildcat teams improved or maintained their scores from a year ago. In 2013-2014, the football team had an APR of 980, a big improvement over previous years.
Scoring a near perfect APR and putting 14 players in the NBA over four years? What do you think, Bobby?

LAGUNA NIGUEL -- A 21-year-old man had apparently stopped taking anti-depressant medication and showed signs of mental instability before he stabbed his mother, roommate and an Orange County Sheriff's deputy on Tuesday night, his mentor and dance teacher said.
Authorities said another deputy eventually shot and killed suspect Connor Bishop Zion during the altercation at a condominium complex near Marina Hills Drive. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The injured deputy was out of the hospital and "expected to go through the necessary medical steps to recover," Lt. Matthew Barr, Laguna Niguel chief of police services, said Friday. He said an investigation into the incident was continuing by the Orange County District Attorney's Office, as with all officer-involved shootings. The deputies' names were not released.
Zion's mother Kym and his 49-year-old roommate were not badly injured and out of the hospital, said Patricia West, a family friend and Connor Zion's mentor and ballroom dance teacher.
"It's crazy. It's so out of character, out of line," West said on Friday. "He was a good kid. He was helpful."
West taught Zion ballroom dance at her Laguna Niguel studio for about two years since he moved to Laguna Niguel from Seattle. She said she knew that he was on and off anti-depression medication.
"To the best of my knowledge, he had stopped taking his medication several weeks ago," she said.
Kym Zion travelled from Seattle to Laguna Niguel on Tuesday to check on her son, West said. West said she is a "very close family friend" and was speaking on behalf of Kym Zion, who was "destroyed" and "unbelievably sad."
When Kym Zion arrived at the apartment on Tuesday evening, Connor Zion came down the stairs and apparently "didn't recognize his mother," West said.
Kym Zion told West that her son then said some strange things before grabbing a kitchen knife. Connor Zion's older male roommate was also in the room, she said.
"They thought he was going to harm himself," West said. "There was a tussle to subdue him, to get him on the floor."
That's when both the mother and roommate were stabbed, West said, and presumably around the time when police were called, at 7:30 p.m.
Witnesses later said one of the deputies who responded was seen wrestling with a man on the ground outside, trying to take away a knife.
Another deputy then shot Zion, said Sheriff's Lt. Jeff Hallock. Witnesses said they heard several shots fired.
West remembers her student as a "very, very talented" ballroom dancer. "He loved to dance more than anything," she said. "That was kind of his reason for life."

1994 BMW 540i Problems
Engine oil leaks commonly develop from both valve cover gaskets, intake manifold, and PCV plate after about 60,000 miles.
Leaks are known to develop in the cooling system. It is common to see more than one part recommended for repair/replacement due to overlapping labor and the use of many plastic parts in the system.
A fluid leak may develop from one or more power steering hose. When a leak is being repaired, it is not uncommon for multiple hoses to be replaced.
1994 BMW 540i Questions
Purchased 1 week ago. noticed white smoke on start up. saw more smoke during stop and go traffic this morning. at lunch the car would not crank but tries to turn over. added gas just in case bc the hand was showing low but that did not solve this issue.
Having some weird electrical problems. The back up lights are not working. The interior panel lights (speedo) dim sometimes. The trip computer went into 24hr mode and then back.
I changed the control module and the light won't go off. The car starts but runs rough. What do I need to do.

Post 17 in this very thread lays some of this out, which I note you responded to by asserting that in those cases canon was only a guideline, and not a certain rule. So, yeah, you've already effectively conceded that there is no 'canon' basis for your argument.
Also, as an aside, you can't keep throwing in mentions about how game balance is destroyed/escorts are OP/etc. on the one hand, and then refuse to defend your claims by resorting to 'This thread is only about torpedoes, so nothing else matters'. Everyone knows this is part of your campaign to nerf escorts and buff cruisers, so stop acting like talking about you ideas in that context is unwarranted.

"Conflict of interest"? Really? Why? Because I have an opinion about game balance that differs from yours? Are you seriously going to claim that you are an objective party here? You keep acting like anyone who can't see how the current, balanced game is manifestly unfair to cruisers must be willfully ignoring the obvious, while at the same time completely failing to see how, from another perspective, what you are asking for is: "Cruisers get more of everything, and escorts get less, because I like cruisers, I hate escorts, and I can't make cruisers work now"
Long story short, if I'm disqualified because of a 'conflict of interest', well, right back at you buddy.

With a few notable exceptions, I don't consider it unfortunate that other people play this game. Your mileage may vary, of course.

Uh, they don't? I mean seriously, what are you talking about? Ker'rat the rewards go to whoever gets the most points (which means a combination of scanning nodes and killing the hubs), Fleet events like No Win and Blockade clearly reward teams with healing/CC as well as damage, Pvp 'rewards' (such as they are) go to a combination of healing/dmg, STF drops are purely a matter of luck, and so on.
Originally Posted by

Because, of course, only escorts can do STFs, only players in escorts are allowed to join fleets and use the fleet stores, only escorts can buy dilithium weapons, and even if cruisers do somehow get a purple weapon off the exchange, they can't slot them.
Or, you know, none of that is true.
Look, I get that Starbase 24/Gorn minefields rewards kills because most of the objectives are 'kill X of *shiptype*', but those aren't the only parts of the game, and they aren't even close to the 'best' ways to get end-game gear.
Originally Posted by

Yeah, PVP is not dominated by escorts. PVP is dominated by teams that match up nearly invulnerable heal-boats with spike damage Escorts and sci vessels that use disables to set a ship up for the kill. So, teamwork. Absent teamwork, in a free-for-all scrum, the cruisers should carry the day, since they have the heals/tank to last.
Originally Posted by

Forgive me for reading between the lines, but:
You want cannons to do less damage, and beams to do more
You want escorts to get less of a bonus from torpedo spread powers, and cruisers to get more
You want cruisers to be more durable, and escorts to be less durable
You want a special modifier on cruisers to increase their damage
You think any resistance to your ideas is part of a 'escort conspiracy', led by the devs, and aiming to invalidate the most popular ship type in the game
etc. etc.
So, yeah, I see a pretty clear bias, even if you don't (and even if you've never said "I love cruisers and hate escorts).

They continiuesly drop leace on the ground, that terminates all living creatures that comes in contact. However, as how threatening as they may sound, they are also weak; one unlucky hit will result in a crash into the nearest enemy.

The 30 greatest free web fonts
Keen to add typographic personality to your next website without breaking the bank? Check out these free web fonts.
It's time-consuming to cut through the ocean of mediocre web fonts to find the real gems that punch above their (zero) price tag. With this in mind, we've rounded up the greatest free web fonts from around the web to get you started.
There are various methods to source and license web fonts, including subscription-based models such as Typekit, WebINK, Fontdeck and Fontspring, which boast libraries of quality typefaces and are becoming increasingly popular with professional designers. If you're on a tight budget, however, or are just looking to experiment on a smaller project, there are plenty of good web fonts available at no cost if you know where to look.
Font sources
Sites such as Font Squirrel are helpful, not to mention the free-to-use Google Web Fonts service and Adobe Edge Web Fonts. Powered by Typekit, this supplements the GWF library with several of Adobe's own open source web fonts and integrates neatly with Edge and Muse. But here is our selection of the best around.
Oh, and you should also read: rules for using web fonts that some designers forget!
01. Rosario
Rosario is described by publisher Omnibus as being a classic semi-serif typeface, featuring weak contrast and smooth endings. We think it's an excellent Humanist sans-serif addition to your type arsenal. Perfect for setting paragraph type, Rosario is named after the city where designer Héctor Gatti lives. The font has also benefited from TrueType hinting additions provided by Adobe via their Edge Web Fonts platform.
02. Roboto Slab
Roboto Slab is one variant in the wider Roboto family designed by Christian Robertson. The slab version particularly catches the eye with its geometric shapes and open curves. It works equally well as a display font or for dense copy: the letterform rhythm feels natural, making for a pleasant reading experience.
03. Oswald
One of the first fonts to be featured in Google's Web Fonts library, Oswald has been updated more recently to include multiple weights, extended character sets and better kerning. The font is a reworking of the classic Alternate Gothic sans-serif typeface style, created by designer Vernon Adams, and is a fantastic display font for headlines and captions.
04. Stalemate
A wonderfully quaint script design by Jim Lyles, and harking back to vintage origins. This font works well as an accent or display font, adding instant "personal" impact to your typography on the page.
05. Crimson Text
This wonderfully refined font makes an excellent choice for copy that requires the solidity and impact of a well proportioned serif. Designed by Sebastian Kosch in the best traditions of oldstyle typefaces such as Garamond, this features beautifully rendered ordinals and uppercase forms, making it a solid and reliable choice for many applications.
06. Gravitas One
Designed by Riccardo De Franceschi, Gravitas One is modelled on the 'UK fat face' - a heavy advertising type created during the industrial revolution in England. This is a font that'll look great in a medium to large scale; perfect for headers, tabs and striking titles.
07. Jura
Daniel Johnson wanted to create a Roman alphabet using the same kinds of strokes and curves as the Kayah Li glyphs. Jura was born and has been expanded to include glyphs for the Cyrillic and Greek alphabets. It's available in light, book, medium, and demibold weights.
08. League Gothic
Originally designed by Morris Fuller Benton for the American Type Founders Company in 1903, League Gothic has been given a new lease of life thanks to The League of Moveable Type. Thanks to a commission from WND.com, it's been revised and updated with contributions from Micah Rich, Tyler Finck, and Dannci, who have contributed the extra glyphs.
09. Fjord
Fjord is a serif typeface, originally designed with printed books in mind, and particularly intended for long texts in small print sizes. This will look great for your longer content on the web as it features sturdy construction, prominent serifs, low-contrast modulation and long elegant ascenders and descenders relative to the 'x' height.
10. Amaranth
The Amaranth family is a friendly upright italic design with a slight contrast and distinctive curves. With its three new styles Amaranth works really well with almost any text type. This is a font perfect for playing around with – see what works!

UNION — This year's Halloween Downtown will offer not only candy for little trick or treaters, but also games, entertainment and a pumpkin carving contest for all ages.
As in previous years, Halloween Downtown will be held on Main Street in downtown Union on Halloween with local businesses handing out candy to trick or treating children. While this tradition will continue, Union County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Torance Inman said this year's Halloween Downtown will offer a lot more for both children and adults.
"We are participating with the Union County Recreation Department and the YMCA in expanding our Halloween Downtown event," Inman said. "Usually, we have downtown merchants and businesses and some other local businesses distribute candy to children for an hour on Halloween.
"This year we want to add some games and activities as well as some entertainment," he said. "There will be a hay bale maze on the courthouse lawn. There will be several locations on Main Street with corn toss games where the children can receive a prize and/or candy. The YMCA will have additional games set up in the County Annex parking lot. Miss Elaine's Dance Studio will have a Halloween dance routine on Main Street."
Inman said this year's Halloween Downtown will also feature a pumpkin carving contest.
"There will be two categories, one for children ages 12 and under, and the other will be for 13 and up to include adults," Inman said. "We encourage pumpkin carving artists and those who just want to have fun to enter the contest.
"Judging will be done by the public as they bring their children downtown and pass the pumpkins on display," he said. "Each adult will have the opportunity to vote for one in each category."
In the 12 and under category, participants may be assisted by a parent or guardian, but those in the 13 and over category must carve their pumpkin on their own. Each participant is responsible for supplying and carving his or her own pumpkin with only one entry per person.
Inman said that the Union County Arts Council will receive the pumpkins and register the carvers on Wednesday, Oct. 30 from 3-6 p.m. and on Thursday, Oct. 31 from 10 a.m.-noon. Those who want to register in advance may pick up their registration forms at the arts council, 116 E. Main St.; at the the chamber, 135 W. Main St.; or the recreation department, 111 Thomas St.
All entries will be on display in the windows of a store building at 130 E. Main St.
While Halloween Downtown will offer expanded opportunities for fun for children and their families, Inman said it also offers businesses that have not participated in the past the opportunity to do so. He said churches are also urged to participate.
"We encourage businesses — not just those on Main Street — and churches to come and set up a table or display and distribute goodies to the children," Inman said. "We are already having a good response from a number of businesses and churches. We would like to fill Main Street up so we can fill up the bags of children and provide them with a fun, safe, entertaining event."
For more information contact the Union County Chamber of Commerce at 864-427-9039.

Legendary investor Warren Buffett advises to be fearful when others are greedy, and be greedy when others are fearful. One way we can try to measure the level of fear in a given stock is through a technical analysis indicator called the Relative Strength Index, or RSI, which measures momentum on a scale of zero to 100. A stock is considered to be oversold if the RSI reading falls below 30.
In trading on Tuesday, shares of EXACT Sciences Corp. (EXAS) entered into oversold territory, hitting an RSI reading of 24.3, after changing hands as low as $10.10 per share. By comparison, the current RSI reading of the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) is 44.5. A bullish investor could look at EXAS's 24.3 RSI reading today as a sign that the recent heavy selling is in the process of exhausting itself, and begin to look for entry point opportunities on the buy side. The chart below shows the one year performance of EXAS shares:

Looking at the chart above, EXAS's low point in its 52 week range is $6.93 per share, with $14.70 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $10.16.
According to the ETF Finder at ETF Channel, EXAS makes up 1.71% of the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF (XBI) which is trading lower by about 4.1% on the day Tuesday.

Re: Reaching struts
I know that this is an ancient thread, but I'd like to resurrect the discussion. Two questions:
1. When we have the symmetrical spinnaker flying on a reach, the pole is against or nearly against the headstay. In that position with the guy lead to the aft corner of the transom, it's nearly impossible to trim because the guy is pulling the pole nearly straight back, dragging across the lifelines, chafing both. Last year, we led the guy to a block amidships on the rail and the angle was better but not great. While a reaching strut is the obvious answer, what do you guys do?
2. I picked up a relatively short strut at Bacon's that I think will work. The traditional attachment point is on the mast, but I think that I recall seeing a photo of the strut attached to the point on the deck. Ideas? I was planning to attach it to a sliding eye fixed at the forward end of our inboard genoa track and then lashing the middle of the strut to a stanchion to keep it from riding up.

Need advice on GeForce4 Ti 4200 cards

More likely, the price on the NV30 won't come down until about February/March, but it will almost certainly be available in some form in late December/early January (note that unless nVidia gets exceptionally lucky, it will be quite expensive at launch...). The official launch date for the NV30 is set to late November currently, though I don't think anybody expects cards to be available right at launch.
Personally, I'm far more excited about the possibility of an NV31 sometime next year. This would seem to be a turnaround back to the days of the GeForce2 MX where the high-end chip was released roughly six to eight months before the low-end version of the same technology. This time it may be closer to a three month delay.
All that said, I really do not think you can go wrong with getting a GeForce4 Ti 4200 very soon (Or a higher-end one, if you choose). Just don't get a Gainward one...they've been having stability problems.

Students Learn About Agriculture at Farm Day
By Kendra Knutson
APRIL 30, 2007--Chocolate milk does not come from brown cows--that is one of the facts that more than 650 elementary school students from Wisconsin and Minnesota learned about the agriculture industry on April 20 at the University of Wisconsin-River Falls annual "Farm Day."
Hosted by the university's Mann Valley Farm 2, the Farm Day event is sponsored by Alpha Zeta, an honorary agricultural fraternity, in order to educate kindergarten through third grade elementary students on different aspects of agriculture. Any UWRF College of Agriculture, Food, and Environmental Science organization can participate by setting up and staffing an educational booth at the farm. This year's participating organizations included: Dairy Club, Poultry Club, Crops and Soils Club, Rodeo Club, and the Agriculture Education Society.
Students from a wide array of schools arrived in groups for two-hour teaching segments at the farm. Each group rotated to a different educational booth or activity every 15 minutes. The topics this year ranged from sheep shearing to crops and soils, to where milk comes from and rodeo events. The day began at 9 a.m. and concluded at 2:30 p.m.
Matthew Hines, a senior in agricultural studies from Waseca, Minn., was in charge of organizing the Dairy Club's booth, "Milk from the Cow to You!" Student volunteers from the club managed it throughout the day. Hines also searched to find donations and sources for 650 cartons of milk, along with coloring books for the kids. "This is a very beneficial event because it exposes young children to different aspects of agriculture who may not otherwise experience it in their home area," said Hines, "Many students come from the Twin Cities and have never been on a farm, this proves to be a real learning experience for them."
Hines' favorite part of the day was seeing the children's reactions, especially from those who had never experienced agriculture firsthand. "It makes you appreciate how you were raised with an agriculture background, and realize that not everyone was as fortunate as you," said Hines.
Farm Day began in the early 1990s by the UWRF Dairy Club but was called "Dairy Jubilee." The event was held on the main campus near the old student center. Dairy Jubilee was focused primarily on the dairy industry and topics related to dairy. Over the years the educational event started to gain more categories from the entire agricultural field. A few years ago Alpha Zeta took on sponsorship and became the primary organizer of what is now dubbed "Farm Day."
For more information on next year's Farm Day, contact the College of Agriculture, Food and Environmental Sciences at 715-425-3841.

Matt puts in the miles for breast cancer
Matt Shaw would do anything for his sick sister, even walk from one end of Gippsland to the other.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
It's been seven years since Erica resident Matt Shaw did any serious exercise.
So why on earth has he decided to walk from Lakes Entrance to Cranbourne in 12 days?
Matt's sister Robyn, a 39 year-old mum of five, has breast cancer.
She is undergoing chemotherapy but in a few months will have a mastectomy and then a hysterectomy to reduce her risk of ovarian and cervical cancers.
"It's been tough," Matt says. "I didn't have much income to be able to support her and I thought what better way to try to raise some money than to go on a walk.
"I was lying awake in bed and I said to my stepdad that if I can get the sponsors, I'd get on the road and I'd walk it.
"He said to me I was out of my mind and at the moment I think I am a little bit out of my mind," he laughs.
Matt is walking about 30 kilometres a day and limped into ABC Gippsland's studios this morning with feet covered in blisters.
"That's alright," he says. "It's nothing compared to what she's going through."
Robyn says there is no option but to stay positive, especially for her children.
"I try not to show them too much because they get so emotional when they do see me down and out," she says.
"Normally I wake up and I just have a good positive attitude. I just get into a state and I also pray.
"I think with my spiritual side it just uplifts me to think that what I'm going through isn't as bad as what other people are going through.
"I try to focus on the positives."
Matt describes his big sister as "amazing".
"She has five children, she'd do anything for anyone - that's the reason why I'm out here," he says.
As he heads towards his destination, Matt hopes people will stop and talk to him about Robyn or their own experiences or donate to his quest.
You can follow Matt's progress on the Robyn's Caped Crusaders Walk facebook page.

White River National Wildlife Refuge Acquisition Boundary Expansion Proposal
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Tables Proposal to Expand the Acquisition Boundary of Dale Bumpers White River National Wildlife Refuge
September 30, 2014
Contacts: Tom MacKenzie, (404) 679-7291, email@example.com
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has tabled planning efforts on its proposal to expand the acquisition boundary of Dale Bumpers White River National Wildlife Refuge in central Arkansas.
"After careful consideration, we will not pursue a major boundary expansion at this time because we are focusing our future acquisition efforts in Arkansas at Cache River and Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuges," said David Viker, Southeast Regional Chief of the National Wildlife Refuge System. "We will devote the efforts of our talented staff on continuing to manage important habitat for hundreds of thousands of waterfowl and other wildlife for the enjoyment of the American people."
The proposal would have allowed for the purchase of lands within the expanded boundary from willing sellers only. It also would have enabled the conservation of bottomland hardwoods and helped connect several state and federal conservation areas together over time expanding hunting, fishing, and wildlife-related activities like photography and wildlife observation.

Now that I have about 2000 miles on my '04 1150RT, wanted to see how things have settled in. It has been a couple of months since I last reset the Motronic and cleared any Adaptation Values that might have been "learned" by the Motronic. So I made a couple checks.
First I measured the warm-up transition from start to running closed loop. As mentioned, I haven't reset my Motronic for over a month and have taken many, varied rides. I wanted to see how things looked and whether there was clearly ADAPTATION going on. The results are that the Motronic has "learned" about the BoosterPlug, E10 fuel I run and Wideband O2 set at 13.8:1.
The result that can be seen from the chart below is that everything has been shifted to the desired afr of 13.8:1, including the cranking and warm up period. Booster, E10 fuel and LC-1 are operating in harmony with each other.
Below is the warm-up from a cold (85F is cold today) to hot (Closed Loop) motor. You can see the cranking and afterstart enrichment on the left at about 12-12.5:1, the initial warmup at 13.1:1 (about 5% below 13.8), final warmup enrichment at 13.3:1 (3%) for a few seconds and then smoothly transitioning into closed loop for the right hand half of the chart. The Closed Loop AFR spread is a mere 2.5% because of the speed of the LC-1. Gas mileage from for the most recent tank of fuel running premium E10 was 44 mpg (235 miles and 5.3 gallons).
The lines on the chart are blue 13.8:1 and red 13.3:1.
Here is an Autolite Plug with 2,000 miles of mostly local driving at 13.8.

BP settlement architects hope to win over skeptics
NEW ORLEANS The deal is all but done. Now it's time to sell it.
Days after they announced a multibillion-dollar settlement, BP PLC and a committee of plaintiffs' attorneys are working out details of an agreement to resolve more than 100,000 claims spawned by the 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
They must persuade a federal judge that the settlement is fair and equitable, but the sales job doesn't end there because the deal already has its critics.
Some attorneys who didn't participate in the settlement talks but represent thousands of plaintiffs question whether the court-supervised claims process offers a better bargain for their clients than the $20 billion compensation fund BP established in 2010. They can urge their clients not to participate in the settlement, though pursuing a claim separately in court could involve years of costly litigation.
Anthony Buzbee, a Houston-based attorney who represents about 12,000 clients with claims against BP, said he received a phone call Monday night from a Plaintiffs' Steering Committee member who briefed him on some of the terms of the deal. Buzbee had initially expressed doubt that the settlement could benefit his clients, saying it was "hard to keep an open mind when you're not getting any information" from the PSC.
His tone had softened by Tuesday, however. Buzbee said the PSC member assured him the court settlement's terms are "much more generous" than the Gulf Coast Claims Facility's claims processing formula.
"I'm going to withhold judgment on it and wait and see what the final protocols are going to be," Buzbee said.
Daniel Becnel Jr., a Reserve, La.-based attorney who represents about 1,500 clients with claims against BP, said he doesn't need to read the fine print of the deal to know he will advise his clients to opt out of the settlement. One of Becnel's concerns is that he says the settlement doesn't account for tens of thousands of people and businesses that haven't filed claims yet.
"They're starting to catch a lot of flak from a lot of people," Becnel said. "How do you settle a case without knowing what the universe is of the entire client population?"
Rig owner Transocean and cement contractor Halliburton also may challenge the deal in part because it seeks to assign certain claims BP has made against those companies to the PSC. Halliburton lead trial lawyer Donald E. Godwin said Tuesday that Halliburton is not currently in settlement discussions with BP or the PSC and that the company is preparing for trial.
Kenneth Feinberg, who administered BP's $20 billion fund, is expected to leave the post soon. Lynn Greer, a partner at a Richmond, Va.-based law firm, will fill in for Feinberg during the transition from the Gulf Coast Claims Facility to the court-supervised settlement program. Patrick Juneau, a Lafayette-based attorney, will take over for Greer and serve as the court-appointed administrator for economic loss claims if U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier gives his preliminary approval to the settlement.
All of the paperwork that applicants submitted to the GCCF will be transferred to the court, so those claimants won't be starting from scratch under the new system. During the transition, individuals and businesses with pending settlement offers from the GCCF will be able receive 60 percent of the existing offer while they consider whether to participate in the court settlement. If they opt out, they must sign a release to get the remaining 40 percent. If they opt in, the court-supervised process will decide if they are entitled to more than what the GCCF offered.

This Bistrot is worthy of 3 stars (the chef used to work for Le Doyen). It's specialty is veal liver. Mr. Arabian, the owner, is a character full of energy and humour. Great atmosphere (not formal at all) and great food!
