Green Archers rout Generals to stay unscathed at Filoil Flying V
More News from Celest R. Flores
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines – La Salle thrived in the open court, making it hard for Emilio Aguinaldo College to keep up all game, en route to a 91-63 win on Friday in the 2013 Filoil Flying V Hanes Premier Cup.
The Green Archers set the tempo of the game from the get-go and notched 22 fastbreak points, taking advantage of the Generals' who were just a step too slow.
The biggest advantage reached 28 points on a fastbreak layup by rookie Kib Montalbo.
La Salle kept its unbeaten slate at 5-0 in group B in another dominating fashion, but coach Gee Abanilla reminded his players that it went beyond that.
"There's always pressure. This preseason is not all about winning, it's all about improving yourselves," said Abanilla after the game.
The Green Archers were not just all about running, though, as Jason Perkins, their gem of a big man, terrorized the pain and dropped 20 points to lead all scorers. He also added 11 boards.
Jeron Teng added 11 while Norbert Torres and Oda Tampus had 10 each.
EAC had several runs in the game but it was not enough to keep them truly competitive, although the Generals were able to put the lead down to 8 at one point.
The lone bright spot for the Generals, though, was the return of burly Cameroonian import Nobue Happi, who had 14 points and 10 rebounds.

Ben Hogan was born Aug. 13, 1912, in Dublin, Texas. His father
was a blacksmith who died when Ben was nine. After moving to Fort
Worth, Hogan began his life in golf as a caddy, along with Byron
Nelson, at the Glen Garden Country Club. Hogan joined the
professional circuit in 1932.
Small but strong at 5-foot-7, 140 pounds, Hogan won 64
tournaments, his first in 1938 at the Hershey Four Ball and the
last the 1959 Colonial. He won nine majors and is one of the only
five men to win the career grand slam.
After several close calls in major championships, he won his
first major at the 1946 PGA. When he won the 1948 PGA
Championship in May and the U.S. Open at Riviera three weeks
later, Hogan felt he was at his peak. But on Feb. 2, 1949, a
Greyhound bus crossed a center divider and crashed into the car
carrying Hogan and his wife, Valerie.
Hogan nearly died and suffered permanent leg injuries.
Miraculously, he won the 1950 U.S. Open at Merion in an 18-hole
Even though Hogan played only a few tournaments a year
thereafter, his best golf was ahead. In 1951, he won his first
Masters and the U.S. Open at Oakland Hills. In 1953, he had his
greatest year, winning his second Masters, his fourth U.S. Open
and his only British Open.
"I always outworked everybody," he said. "Work never bothered me
like it bothers some people." 1
In 2003, officials at Harris Methodist Hospital asked the Ben
Hogan family if they could name their new state of the art
facility after the legend that called Fort Worth his home. The
Ben Hogan Center became home to physician offices, outpatient
surgery center, and to the Ben Hogan Sports Therapy Institute.
Since that time, Texas Health Ben Hogan Sports Medicine has
helped thousands of people regain their winning form.

Metro: Last Light is an interesting game. It's not directly tied to the book series like the original was, it's been delayed numerous times, and has even changed developer hands. Given all this, does Last Light's emergence herald a new classic, or should it have stayed in the dark?
The Metro series tells the story of its protagonist Artyom, a man who is trying to survive after a nuclear holocaust in the only habitual place left on earth, the Metro tunnels under Moscow. The first game took many gamers by surprise, not only for its graphical requirements but also because the game stayed true to the books with its very typical Russian ending. This was unfamiliar to many gamers and some felt uncomfortable with how dark the ending was (if you chose that route) – but it's not atypical of Russian literature.
Metro: Last Light is just as dark, however; Artyom is now haunted by the events that took place in Metro 2033 and is somehow given a chance to be redeemed for his actions. Artyom joined the Rangers in the first game, which hail from a Metro city called Polis. From there, they are dispatched to other Metro cities that might be overwhelmed with local problems, like outbreaks of infection or being overrun by the beasts that now walk the surface, that they cannot handle themselves. Thus, they try to be neutral in the affairs of the Metro stations on a political level.
Click here for multi-monitor widescreen version.
During the last events of 2033, Artyom helped the Rangers gain control of a forgotten Russian military facility known as D6, which holds many advantages to anyone who possesses it. While on his quest for redemption in Last Light, Artyom finds himself caught up in the affairs of the other factions – Nazis and the Reds – which are preparing for an all-out war and control over D6. Will there be salvation for Artyom and the Metro or will it all burn in the fires of war? These are the questions you must answer in Last Light.
Given the exquisite graphics of 2033, Last Light is not surprisingly one of the better-looking games out there; however it is not without its problems. There were several times that I would run in to issues like textures being stretched on top of the water, the light flickering even though its source was constant (such as a fire), shadows not overlaying on objects so I'd see weird geometric fluctuations, and etc. These issues were not game-breaking; they were however persistent and quite rampant.

There were a few other issues that I had run into, that again, were not game-breaking. For example, when I held the Sprint button down while pushing forward, Steam's overlay would appear. There were other keyboard combinations that would kick me to the desktop, but not close the game. The game also does not support multi-monitor properly; the NVIDIA profile for this game on its website says it does, but the HUD and menus have been shifted to the left. Thus, this game was not as polished as the first game was, at least where the graphics are concerned.
Though there were many graphical bugs, the game's story was told very well. This is done through journal entries from Artyom and also the dialog from the support cast, which is given a little more time to explain what's going on. I personally feel that the first game suffered in the storytelling department, but this game does not. What made Last Light even more enjoyable for me was when all of these elements came together, there were times that I was truly frightened – and that takes some doing for someone who is generally never scared. But, this game pulled it off.
This is also a world where everything feels plausible; that goes from the living conditions all the way down to the currency that is used. The biggest complaint I have for the game is that even though you may be above ground, there were many invisible walls, and it was still a linear path. This is something that is acceptable in the Metro because of how limited space is visually, but it shouldn't happen anywhere else.
Click here for multi-monitor widescreen version.
Like in the first game, there are two endings that can happen, which are dictated by your actions throughout the game. One sore spot for me in Metro 2033 was that the players couldn't find much currency, but now, you can actually earn a good deal of currency, if you do it right. This makes things easier to accommodate any player's play style and keep them fully loaded.
Last Light departs from its predecessor in that it is no longer run-and-gun. Rather, this one is more of a stealth gun game. This doesn't mean that you have to be uber-stealthy, but it does make the game much more challenging, and if you're going for all the achievements, then indulging in that playstyle is a requirement. Stealth in Last Light does not feel tacked on; the AI responds appropriately.
The greatest stealth obstacle in your way is that you cannot lean around corners. This means for you to get a good view of an area around corners or down a hall way, you need to step out in front of the enemy, sometimes not knowing if they'll be able see you. Corner-leaning is a very simple mechanic to add in and without it, it makes things more difficult than they should be.

Voice-acting was well performed by all of the actors in this game. The only hiccup was with the lip sync; there were times that it did not match up for the character – they just didn't move their lips at all. The sound effects did not suffer from any bugs. The most impressive sounds I thought came from the thunder and lightning sequences while above ground.
In the end, Metro: Last Light does things better than its predecessor in many ways; this is the greatest strength this game has. Thus, this is a great game for veterans of the franchise and newcomers alike. However, the persistent problems, even minor, can be annoying at best. It does seem that the game should have had a bit more polish before its release, but thankfully, the blemishes don't ruin the experience.

If Pandora's Tower ends up getting announced for North America, that whole Operation Rainfall movement will have have been 100% successful. Pretty awesome to see the fans legitimately end up being responsible for the Wii getting some much-needed quality titles to play.
RPG fans out there really need to get their hands on PS1 classic Tombi. Imagine a classic action RPG in a 2D side scrolling way, but with the whimsy and sheer creativity of Rayman Origins.
so many new games this year, can't afford them all :(
the new Kid Icarus game too.. and Earth Seekers!!
It's quite the contrast to Uncharted on the Vita, as a half hour or more with that game and I get all kinds of sleepy. Big time disappointment.
I'll give you guys a bit of advice right here. Invest in Gamefly. For $16 a month, you have unlimited access to their database of games dating back to most any PS1/XBOX game you could possibly want. Usually if a game comes out brand new, within a day or two GF has the game and you can rent it. If you decide you want to buy the game, you can pay the resale/used price for it (which is usually a pretty fair price) and they will ship you the case/game book. It's well worth the money and it's what I've been doing for well over a year now. It saves you from having to spend the 50 bucks it takes to buy the game new. You keep the game, beat it, then send it back and you get the next game on your list.
www.gamefly.com <---check it out
^^^^I loved Gamefly when I had it. This mans comments about it are too true.
On another note...MAX PAYNE 3 IN NINE DAYS!!!!
I was such a big fan of the first two and it looks like they have really upped the anty on this one!
Giving Skyrim a another chance. Not enjoying it as much as I would like, but I'm slowly warming up to it.
Running around the wilderness as a Werewolf killing things can do that.
Also yes, Gamefly rocks
was playing Mass Effect 3 today, and this happened

Wood storage opening?
1 Attachment(s)
I was wondering if I could get some feedback on the opening width, for the wood storage area that others have used on their foundations. Right now it looks like mine will be about 28" unless I cut the bricks in the front. I don't mind cutting the bricks but I will have to cut them all the way up or it might look kind of strange. I could also increase the size of the foundation since I left extra room on the slab. Any and all thoughts would be appreciated.
Re: Wood storage opening?
If you terminated your side walls with a half brick, so they didn't jut inward, you could use your brick to get any width (in four inch increments) that you wanted. Any cavity in the brickwork could be filled with mortar and rubble before you poured your slab.
Since you're bricking up the outside, you could use your brick exterior for your slab form, with a little planning.
It's looking good.
Re: Wood storage opening?
Thank You so much for the reply. Sometimes the most obvious solution eludes me. I also like the idea of using the brick as the forms. It makes sense!
Re: Wood storage opening?
Mine is 500mm. I can even crawl in there and use my oven as a bomb shelter!

The continual discovery of new single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) has led to an increased resolution of the Y chromosome phylogeny. Some of these Y-SNPs have shown to be restricted to small geographical regions and therefore may prove useful in the forensic field as tools for the prediction of population of origin of unknown casework samples. Here, we describe a system for the molecular dissection of haplogroup E-M78 (E1b1b1a), consisting of multiplex polymerase chain reaction and minisequencing of M78 and nine population-informative Y-SNPs (M148, M224, V12, V13, V19, V22, V27, V32, V65) in a single reaction. Sensitivity and admixture studies demonstrated that the SNP protocol allows robust genotyping from as little as 50 pg of male DNA, even in the presence of 500-fold amounts of female DNA. In order to evaluate the suitability of E1b1b1a, subhaplogrouping for population-of-origin prediction, the distribution of E-M78 and its derived variants was determined in an Italian population sample (n = 326).

Capital One has launched a 12-day, instant-win holiday promotion that lets followers browse and buy gifts while getting closer to the brand.
Capital One has launched a 12-day, instant-win holiday promotion that lets followers browse and buy gifts while getting closer to the brand.
While enticing people to shop with Capital One partners is a no-brainer, the real of the goal is to attract followers so that the brand can build a deeper connection, according to Mike Darne, Capital One senior director of social media.
"We were looking to learn more about the platform," Darne said. Capital One has been using Pinterest for a few months, and RGA, its digital agency, suggested the holiday tie-in. "We're trying to figure out Pinterest and how it works, what resonates with people, what they will do on the platform and how they will engage with the brand," he said.
The campaign, conceived by RGA, turns the Capital One profile page into a calendar with daily themes, from "the gift of comfort" to "the gift of winter escape." Each board will include the opportunity to win instant rewards, plus an array of themed gift ideas.
The promotion features shoportunities and prizes from Capital One retail partners including Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman-Marcus, Best Buy and Kohl's. On the final day of the promotion, one person will win a prize valued at $4,500. Visitors also will be able to click through to partners' retail sites to buy merchandise, as well as purchase Capital One-provided gift cards for use with the retailers.
The entire promotion was put together in three weeks, according to Darne. Because of the quick turnaround, his team was unable to push buttons, links or other information about it through Capital One's digital channels. But the financial services company's Facebook page now features the campaign, and Twitter will get the word out in the next week.
Capital One is using a Pinterest analytics package to do some basic tracking, but the real metric of the campaign is simply followers, Darne said. "We want to establish a following on Pinterest. Without that, we won't be able to test content later. As we look at it, it's first, build a following, and second, better understand what content resonates with people."
Pinterest could hold promise, Darne thinks, for helping the Capital One brand become more than a way to buy stuff. "This provides us with opportunity to go deeper on how people think about us. We're not just about the commercials or the statements you receive in the mail," he said. "We want to add depth to the brand and get deeper into the things our customer care about, and provide content around that."

ROCKINGHAM — A structure fire at the Rockingham Farm and Flea Market on U.S. 220 brought out five area fire departments just before noon Tuesday.
The call came in at 11:26 a.m., according to Bryan Cloninger, deputy chief of the Northside Volunteer Fire Department.
Cloninger said about half the building was "involved in fire" when crews arrived on the scene.
Firefighters first attempted to battle the blaze from the inside, Cloninger said, but were pulled out after about 15 minutes when the roof of what appeared to be a storage building began to collapse.
Crews from the Rockingham, East Rockingham, Cordova and Ellerbe departments joined Northside firefighters to help extinguish the fire. The Richmond County Sheriff's Office, Richmond County Emergency Management, FirstHealth EMS and Duke Energy also responded.
Mixed-department crews attacked the fire from two areas — in the front and on the right side, near the back — from the ground, while a steady spray from Rockingham Fire Department's ladder truck doused flames from above.
Even when flames were sparse, thick, black smoke filled the air, which could be seen rising above the treetops for several miles.
After a few flare-ups, the fire was mostly out just before 1 p.m. Small areas of flames still flickered under charred sheets of metal. Fire crews cleared the scene around 4 p.m.
Cloninger said two firefighters were treated for smoke inhalation at the scene.
Once all the hotspots were put out and the smoke had cleared, Cloninger said the investigation would be turned over to the sheriff's office.

Originally written on Fox Sports Kansas City | Last updated 11/17/14
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - Like a lot of locals, Steve Price went into fall Sundays wearing red and came out of them raking leaves and muttering obscenities. Before Week 1, hed even purchased the ultimate dude vanity item, a flat-screen TV explicitly for the man-cave. Hed branded himself an NFL lifer, having embraced 49ers games when he lived out west. Then he met the 2012 Kansas City Chiefs. Oh, doctor. This past Sunday (a 28-6 loss to Cincinnati), I didnt even watch the game, screw it, grumbled Price, director of operations at Painted Hills Golf Club in Kansas City, Kan., one of the metros more popular public courses. And Ive got a friend of mine down the street that has tickets in the 12th row, on the 40-yard line, and he called me and he wanted me to go. I said, Ive got a million things I feel like doing I dont really want to go. I like to watch them, but (expletive), when they get their (expletive) kicked, I know theyre going to lose, whats the point? Its really sad. Its really sad...

Finally it has happened
posted 7 years ago
Finally a dry food that is completely nutricious. It has everything that is good for a cat but the price is just a little to high
Pros: Good food bust kind of expensive
Cons: none that I can see

This is one of the worst foods on the market. The first 2 ingredients are Corn. Your cat can't digest corn. The 3rd ingredient is chicken by product which doesn't necessarily have to contain any real meat. It's ground up bone, feet and beak. Find another food please.
Pros: None
Cons: Terrible ingredients, almost nothing your cat needs

When my daughter wants to give her cat a special treat, this is the bag of food she reaches for. Her cat (and sometimes the dogs if they can sneak to the cat bowl) really apppreciates it.
Pros: cat loves it
Cons: price

The Maritime Aquarium's "Ocean Beyond the Sound" exhibit lets you get close looks at the sand tiger sharks and their rows and rows of sharp jagged teeth.
But, when you visit, be sure to check out the very impressive teeth of a new resident of that exhibit: a cubera snapper.
The largest of the species of snappers in the Atlantic, cubera snappers (Lutjanus cyanopterus) commonly are about 3 feet long and 40 pounds, but the fish in among the Aquarium's sharks weighs about 60 pounds. (They can – rarely – grow to 5 feet in length and 125 pounds.)
Cubera snappers have a large mouth with thick lips and a big set of teeth – including very white, very long canine teeth that are visible even when the fish closes its mouth.
And what do cubera snappers do with these big teeth? They crunch through the shells of their favorite foods: crabs and lobsters.
Although cubera snappers range in the western Atlantic from Massachusetts down to Brazil, they're not common this side of Florida. But obviously they do swim this far north, especially during the warm summer months, because the big cubera now at the Aquarium was brought in from a fisherman's "fish trap" off Rhode Island.
They tend to stay in deeper waters, especially around rocky ledges and overhangs – which is exactly where you'll probably find the cubera snapper in the "Ocean Beyond the Sound" exhibit.
You'll also find a slightly smaller cubera snapper – but with similarly impressive teeth – in the Sea Turtles Exhibit. (Where you'll also find a barracuda. More big teeth!)
Cubera snapper are considered to be "vulnerable" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN), which says the fish are particularly vulnerable to overfishing during their spawning activities off the coast of Florida and in the Caribbean.
– Dave Sigworth, Maritime Aquarium publicist

Fresh from his parting shot at his own team, England player Graeme Swann's grandmother has said she blames a 'nasty' Australian side for her grandson's retirement.
According to News.com.au, Mina Swann said that she was saddened by her grandson's retirement from cricket and believes something 'nasty' happened.
The 89-year-old had one Australian player in mind, but just like her grandson took aim at an unnamed member of his own team for being up their own backsides, she refused to name names, the report said.
Swann started playing cricket in the garden of his grandma's home in Blyth, the report added. He starred in three victorious Ashes series, and was the brains behind the famous Sprinkler dance, which became a hit with players and fans alike, the report further said.

"Just couldn't stop listening..."
I loved the story. I loved the characters. I wasn't sure which way it was going to go. I started it in the morning and I couldn't stop listening, I finished it the same day. I could not stand J.J. or Jayden. She was immature throughout the entire story. I couldn't decide which boy I would choose. I was so glad to find out that there is a second book.
"That Boy"
like top 10
All of them
Not really sure. But a film would be great, I'd love to watch this on screen
I really loved listening to Lisa she really brought out the voice I had in my head for JJ.
"Loved this one!"
Sweet, love and friendship
Vincent boys
Have not yet...
Can you fall in love with your best friend?
"What can I say except I just loved this book!"
Yes because Lisa Cordileone brought Jayden to life.
I love the way Jillian Dodd so perfectly had me feeling all the characters emotions. I laughed, cried, sighed and swooned.
She wasn't just reading it, she was living it. Not once did I feel like I was listening to somebody just narrate something. She was acting it out. Simply perfect.
I practically did! I started this book last night, had to force myself to turn it off and go to sleep and finished it today.
I hope to see many more additions from Jillian Dodd to Audible!
"Fantastic Audiobook"
I am already listening to it again. I read the book and was looking for something to listen to during my commute to work. The combination of writing by Jillian Dodd and narration by Lisa Cordileone is the best I've ever experienced and I've listened to more than 50 audiobooks in all genres.
I would compare it to Beautiful Disaster. The story line is very different, but the narrator of that audiobook also did a terrific job and really did justice to the book.
I liked the hot tub scene with the parents. Enough said.
I laughed out loud when listening. The narrator was pitch perfect and really did justice to the tone of the book. It was fabulous.
"That Boy is perfect"
Youthful, thoughtful, a book with substance
Jenny Han's books: The Summer I Turned Pretty (series of 3 books), because both books sound as if the narrator is having a private conversation with you. Simone Elkeles' Ruined (Series of 3 books). Another strong female character who brings a conversational tone to the book. The books are laugh out loud funny. If I Stay by Gayle Forman, because of the interesting view point and dealing with the death of a family member. All of the books I've compared deal with books that have strong female leads. There's romance in all three recommendations. All the main characters are likable, complicated, and human.
I liked the scene with Danny teaching JJ how to kiss, because it made me laugh.
Yep. I loved the narrator and the book equally.
The narrator actually sounded like a teenager. I hate listening to a woman or man who sounds like they're 55 read the part of a teenager. I don't want to hear a raspy smokers / sexy voice when listening to YA. I want to hear a YA read a YA book. This narrator did just that. She is awesome.
The narrator was awesome, also I felt like JJ was very relatable.
Danny, I just fell in love!
No, I haven't, but will in the future.

What is it?
It's an important milestone for Kia, that's what. Yes, it's a seven-seat MPV, but it's also the last of the company's range to benefit from Peter Schreyer's now famous 'Tiger-nose' design philosophy. And as a result, doesn't it look like a handsome thing? Sure, it's no Ferrari 458, but it's certainly better looking than before, making it less likely to be used as a projectile for bored millionaires.
Naturally, it's grown in stature, but in a pleasing way: it's lower, longer and narrower than before with lots of room to spare on the inside. Space in an MPV is considered a good trait, we think.
It's like a big, friendly hug, albeit a soft one. The whole car feels settled, quiet and calm, and the ride is cosseting. So for ferrying you and yours around, it's spot on. Avid apex botherers should probably look elsewhere, mind, because the steering is vague, and you don't get the same kind of interaction as you would in a Ford S-Max. Body roll is kept nicely in check for something of this size, though, so that's a plus point. And the top line is simple – you don't buy an MPV to set fastest laps at Silverstone.
The 134bhp 1.7-litre diesel is sufficient to transport you to day care in time, nothing more: 0-62mph takes 10.4 seconds (a smidge slower than an S-Max) and it's preferable over the lower-powered version of this engine and the 1.6-litre petrol.
On the inside
The dashboard is nicely laid out, if a little bland, there's a funky touchscreen display, it feels rigid enough to deal with demon offspring and feels commodious enough to store many items made out of plastic. UK models get a seven-seat only setup, but you can fold the rear-most seats away under the boot floor in a jiffy to create more luggage space. Unless you have kids that need to sit there. In which case don't.
The 114bhp diesel returns a claimed 60.1mpg, while emitting 124g/km of CO2. That's class-competitive fuel economy and the 134bhp version isn't far behind it on 56.4mpg (blame the penalty on its bigger wheels). At the other end of the range, the entry-level 1.6-litre petrol starts at just under £18k, so it's not horrendously expensive. In fact, that starter Carens is just under £5k less than an entry-level S-Max. Think what you could do with five grand. That's a lot of cash.
It's particularly impressive when you consider that a long-held Kia strength of strong equipment levels remains intact here. The firm clearly listens to TopGear, too: last time round we grumbled about the lack of sat nav. What's just been launched? A 3 Sat Nav variant. The invoice is in the post, guys...

Dr. Wallach starts the show discussing the fact that most financial and economical problems are rooted in paying for medical care. Jobs sent offshore because companies can no longer afford to pay for the medical insurance for their employees. Even the U.S. Postal Service is now sent to lay off thousands, cut back on services and close offices because they can't afford to pay for the medical insurance benefits for it's employees.
Pearls of Wisdom
Doug Winfrey and Dr. Wallach discuss a news article concerning arthritic joints in the baby boomer group of Americans. In the last decade the number of knee joint replacements have doubled and in women ages 45 to 64 these procedures have tripled. Now many baby boomers are turning to an experimental approach of getting PRP injections (platelet rich plasma). Injecting a patients own platelet plasma in joints to reduce pain and hopefully repair joint cartilage. These procedure cost $450 or more and Doc asserts that a lot of bone and joint building nutrients can be bought for that kind of money.

Why do we feel the need to get the ball into the post to Okafor every other posession?
miss FT'S just like against the clippers...
Why do we feel the need to get the ball into the post to Okafor every other posession?
PelicansReport.com Sim League
New Orleans Hornets General Manager
Gotta give him touches. We did the same thing with Tyson when he was there
FT's are ganna kill us...Chris Paul has been money all game but, the role players need to contribute...and I'll say it again we need another bigman badly.
this is ridiculous....2 missed free throws lol...belinelli cant hit an open 3..isnt that sort of what belinelli is really good at? he doesnt do much else on offense other than that so he needs to make his shot..our O is pathetic...why r we giving the ball to okafor on the block? sorry im frustrated
Let's see.....
1. No energy.
2. Can't buy a shot.
3. Every rebound is a struggle for us, every rebound is uncontested for the Jazz.
4. Can't make a free throw to save their lives.
This is starting to look like the 2009 Hornets......anyone else on the verge of panic?
I survived Katrina, but nothing I owned did.
they are making ever f-ing jumpshot contested or not.
man ...
this team is playing with no heart plain and simple...belinelli isway overrated by us...dude cant create or make an open shot..ariza has no offensive game..okafor sucks..we need someone else that can score...please somehow get melo
Wait why is Deron Williams getting 3 FT's? WTF is going on here...he didn't even come close to getting a shot up? WTF IS THIS ****. How do you look on a replay and call that?
This game is over....and really has been since the second quarter. We have got to get someone else who can score. This is not looking good at all.
i am not worried yet. once we hit .500 then i will worry. as of now, nothing to see here.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
I have to say, right now trading Peja was a mistake. We have no shooters.
But that's the least of our problem right now, our bigs are worthless.
The talent levels between these 2 teams is night and day. We have a long way to go in rebuilding this team.
paul getting owned ... whole team getting completely OWNED right now
Originally Posted by Ltr0x

my problem with west is how he just disappears...big time players step up when called upon and he is nowhere to be found...someone has to help cp3 and dwest disappears thats it
Originally Posted by BuzzmanD
before we were all stars, now we are worthless
man ... the team is still in rebuilding mode off course, when you freaking change your backup PG each 2 games, off course its going to hurt your team
we are losing because all players simply dont want to play defense anymore
What this team needs is a 3rd scorer. We've got west and paul. Okafor, Ariza, and Bellinelli are complementary players, not a 3rd scoring option. I'd rather see Ariza coming off the bench.
Can anyone tell me why CP has not been attacking the basket at all for the past ween and a half? Belinelli can't buy a basket. Defense looks horrible. I never blame the reffs, but they are HORRIBLE. Just a really sour game for us... I hope we turn it around in the 4th.
the jazz have our number...lets just hope it doesn't turn out to be the 10 year run of dominance dallas once had on us.
FINALLLY they gave the ball to J smith .. COME ON
the guy is our 2nd unit offense ...
okafor has to dunk that
Originally Posted by CP3forMVP
I have to agree with you, we have no one that is respected enough to make 3's, allows opponents to crowd the paint and dare them to beat them with jump shots and we don't have enough shooters one this team. How many more 3's do you think we will watch Ariza miss this year?

ZTLs - are they indicated on maps and are they on GPS?
Hi: We're continuing to make plans for our March/April trip. We'll fly into Rome, spend some nights there, take the train to Florence, spend some nights there, and then rent a car to tour Tuscany and Umbria for 8/9 nights. We're very concerned about avoiding ZTLs. Can you tell me if these no-traffic areas are indicated on maps, and are they included in GPS (Garmin) databases? Thank you.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Electronic Records, Private Lives
Appropriate Access continued...
He points to developments such as so-called radio frequency identification, or RFID technology, currently under development at MIT and other technology centers, in which minuscule radio-transmitting chips can be buried in everything from goods on the supermarket shelf to the clothing on your back. A similar type of technology, using retinal scans, was featured in the Stephen Spielberg sci-fi thriller Minority Report.
"RFID really could improve communication dramatically, but people are afraid of being tagged and watched and being countable," Schwaitzberg tells WebMD.
Still, he says, "millions of Americans are buying something online right now. Americans seem to be happy to give up information about themselves, and yet there is a very stalwart group of people who are very concerned."
Schwaitzberg and others who advocate online health records say many of those fears could be allayed by a well-designed system with checks and balances. For example, patients could use a personal identification number, or PIN code, to get access to an electronic medical record, sharing it with doctors or other health-care providers who need the information, and then changing the code to ensure privacy when necessary.
That way, someone who becomes injured or sick while traveling could grant instant access to health records by local doctors.
A bigger barrier to the flow of information, Schwaitzberg says, is the current hodgepodge of incompatible information systems, many of which are designed for use only in a specific hospital or group of health centers.
Data for Sale?
If you are one of those people who worry that health-care providers will be tempted to sell your private medical information to the highest bidder, you should know that hospitals have an even more powerful incentive to keep that information under electronic lockdown. That incentive is called HIPAA, for the bipartisan Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, also known as the Kennedy-Kassebaum Act of 1996.
The act is designed to encourage the use of electronic transactions in health-care while safeguarding the security and confidentially of health information. According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, most health insurers, pharmacies, doctors, and other health-care providers are required to comply with the standards.

Book: Sudhi Kannan: An Elephantic Adventure
Author: Krishna
Publishing House: Blackbuck Publication
Pages: 292 pages
Cost: Rs 180
Sudhi Kannan: An Elephantic Adventure is a book about a notorious little kid Sudhi and his unconventional and quirky father Kannan. The protagonist, Sudhi is 10 years old, and is in the 5th grade while Kannan, a single father is the owner of an advertising firm in Mumbai. The father-son duo, tired of their monotonous schedules decide to take a break, and 'bunk' a day to escape to the famous tourist destination near Mumbai- the Elephanta caves. The unique relationship and camaraderie between a father and son is beautifully captured, as Kannan acts more like a friend and breaks the mold of a typical Indian dad.
While Kannan is the 'cool' dad, and supports Sudhi with his mischiefs most of the times, he also struggles with bringing up a child as troublesome as Sudhi, alone as a single parent. This is where the unconventional father-son relationship strikes the readers as heart touching.
While on the trip, Sudhi and Kannan are joined by Sudhi's classmate Pooja and her mother, and when all of them are aboard a ferry to the island when they're taken hostage by the dangerous terrorist Boss. Boss knows hypnosis, and the story goes further with a lot of twists, turns, hypnotized soldiers and bullets being fired from everywhere. And thus starts the 'elephantic' adventure.
Though characters in the book seem very fresh and not run-of-the-mill with an exciting plot, the story gets a tad little slow and descriptive in some parts and could've been much more compact with a few edits. The book is among the very few books in the recent times, by Indian authors which are targeted at younger readers having an adventurous story. Though the story is new, and the language quite simple, the dialogues sound very funny quite a few times. The book is also riddled with a lot of grammatical errors which should be corrected. Wrong grammar is a book lover's worst nightmare.
Also, a lot of the chapters seem to drag in a few places, and slow down the pace of a story which should be very fast in the moment considering the scenario which is so electrifying. The book will become a smarter and a compact read if some of the redundant parts are done away with, and will give the story the much needed pace which it lags in some places.
The book has everything to engage the younger lot, thrill, drama, action and excitement with varied characters. With the protagonists living in Powai, Mumbai the story aptly encapsulates the hectic and fast life of the metro, and the need to break free from daily boring schedules.
Author Krishna brings to us a very out-of-the box story with new characters, and has opened up a vastly undiscovered horizon of children's books by Indian writers with Sudhi Kannan, and promises more such adventurous stories in the future, which would be fun to read after a bit of polishing and smart editing.

Something I end up doing everywhere I go is walking. Whether it be on a trail to Machu Picchu or from block to block in Manhattan, I always end up doing lots of it when on the road. This isn't a bad thing of course – you get to see much more this way than by using public transport. Some of my favourite walks are in the UK and in this weekend's Telegraph newspapers (23rd and 24th July) there are two free supplements outlining fifty of the best ones.
Naturally, I haven't been lucky enough to embark on all of them. But I was happy to see one in the list (we got a sneak preview here) which I covered. Whether it's a coincidence that it's only 5 miles long and classed as 'easy' I'll leave for you to decide. But the walk in question is called the Gresham Norfolk walk not far from Norwich in England's East Midlands.
I was in Norwich with relations at the time and they decided that I should see some of the East Anglican countryside when I was there. Not one to argue, I agreed and off we went. We began the walk at the entrance to Gresham Village. A large carved grasshopper sits on top of the sign, commemorating a local legend. I enquired about the tale but was told there are too many variations to go into.
Onward from here we took lots of turns down lanes, paths and tracks before arriving at the remains of Gresham Castle. At first there's not a whole lot to see – just a group of trees. But they conceal the remains which are only one to three metres high today. Other highlights along the route included an old halls, farmhouses and churches before returning to the village.
While it wasn't the most arduous of walks, it was one I enjoyed and has given me a taste for more. Thanks to the free '50 Great British Walks' supplement in this weekend's Daily Telegraph, I've now got 49 more to choose from. If you live in the UK, or happen to be there this weekend, make sure to pick up a copy. The guides are 52-pages long, have detailed maps and directions and more, meaning a copy of either of this weekend's paper is a good investment.
