With voter apathy and mass street protests growing and spreading worldwide, its time for a revolutionary new democratic system.

- Book Status:
- Working Draft
In the UK's 2001 national election only 51% of those eligible to vote actually did so. This was the lowest ever voter turnout in British history. It seemed that British citizens were apathetic about politics. However, just two years later, two million disaffected and angry people took to the streets of London to protest against war with Iraq. This wasn't a population that didn't care; this was a people that felt that their vote was worthless. In an ICM 2004 poll taken in the UK, a staggering 81% of respondents thought there was no difference between the political parties. This snapshot of the UK, is representative of democracy all over the world. Voter turnout is rock bottom globally, but mass demonstrations have sky-rocketed in frequency and scale in almost all democratic countries from the USA and France to Brazil and Turkey. The current democratic system is not working. It is skewed toward large political parties, big business and powerful lobby groups. It is the product of the last century. Winston Churchill said that 'democracy is the worst form of government except all the others that have been tried'. In the 21st century we can and should do better. We need a new democratic system that engages with the public more than just once every five years. We need a system that is run by the people, for the people. We need Fluid Democracy.Read More
Interview with Richard ThorneRead Interview
Why did you write the book?
I believe that our democratic system is outdated and unrepresentative. How is it that in democratic countries, the vast majority feel that they have no real choice and that their government has its own independent agenda? Surely government should have no agenda but to implement the wishes of its citizens? I know that there must be a better way of doing democracy. This book represents my journey in researching and discovering 21st century models of democracy that are already being successfully trialed. I want to share and promote these models in the hope that we can challenge the status quo of our outmoded and clumsy political institutions.
What do you plan to do with the funds you raise?
Researching and writing a quality book is a full time occupation. I will use the funds to give myself the space to work full time on this project including primary research and interviews with the pioneers of new systems of democracy all over the world. These will largely be done via online tools such as Skype, but funding permitting I will travel to meet individuals in some cases.
Why is the book called Fluid Democracy?
The term is used to describe a democracy fit for the 21st century and social media generation. The system is a far more flexible and adaptable form of democracy than the rigid system used by all democratic governments of the world today. Many of us only get a one-off chance once every few years to contribute to our government's decision making though national elections. Even that one chance every 5 years usually only provides a limited choice of the same handful of political parties with their own deeply routed ideologies and agendas. Instead of being able to pick and choose what we want to support we have to choose one large package of policies or another. A fluid democratic system would be more much more engaging than this, involving people more intimately in the government decision making process and bypassing political parties entirely if necessary.

The Road Map to Nowhere
Do we really need another doomed Mideast peace process?
Mar 31, 2003, Vol. 8, No. 28 • By JOSHUA MURAVCHIK
One particularly notable aspect of the status quo ante was the primacy of Yasser Arafat. President Bush's landmark speech of June 24, 2002, called for "a new and different Palestinian leadership . . . not compromised by terror." But Blair, in his orchestrated echo of Bush's March 14 road map statement, also announced that he himself had just called Arafat to discuss the plan. Linking the official presentation of the road map to the appointment of a Palestinian prime minister is supposed to help erode Arafat's power. But it is Arafat who has appointed Mahmoud Abbas, and whether the latter will prove to be a lever for shunting Arafat aside or merely a pair of gloves to cover Arafat's terror-stained hands remains to be seen.
Beyond such flaws in specific provisions that could be amended in subsequent versions, the critical question is whether the plan's premises are sound. Is it true, for one thing, that the quartet makes a fairer broker of this quarrel than America? To be sure, U.S. policy is pro-Israel, in the sense of a strong commitment to Israel's survival and generous foreign aid. But Washington has often sided with the Arabs and clashed with Israel. It forced Israel to abandon its gains in the 1956 Sinai war, did nothing to break Egypt's blockade of Israeli shipping leading to the Six Day War, stayed Israel's hand in the Yom Kippur and Lebanon wars, rescued Arafat from Beirut, staunchly opposed Israeli settlements in the territories captured in 1967, refused to move its embassy to Israel's capital lest this offend the Arabs, voted for numerous anti-Israel resolutions in the Security Council such as one condemning the 1981 destruction of Iraq's nuclear reactor and another condemning only Israel's actions in the early days of the current intifada, intervened none too subtly in 1999 to encourage the election of the dovish Ehud Barak as prime minister over the hawkish Benjamin Netanyahu, and, under Clinton, hosted Yasser Arafat at the White House more often than any other foreign leader. In short, although linked strongly to Israel, the United States has gone to lengths to honor the interests and demands of the other side.
No such fair-mindedness can be ascribed to the other players in the quartet. Ironically, Russia, which has developed friendly relations with Israel despite oil interests in the Arab world and personal links that stretch back to Soviet days, may be the most neutral. But the E.U. is more one-sidedly pro-Palestinian than America is pro-Israel. Its copious aid to the Palestinian Authority, according to the German newspaper Die Welt, has made "Palestine" the world's largest per capita recipient of foreign aid. And during the Israeli incursion into the cities of the West Bank last spring, the European parliament voted for economic sanctions against Israel, as indeed had been applied by the E.U. (or its predecessor) on previous occasions, such as during the war in Lebanon in 1982 or the first intifada in the mid 1980s. These are the same European lawmakers who have denounced America's sanctions on Libya, Iran, and Cuba. In this instance, the European Commission declined to impose the sanctions, but individual E.U. countries applied some themselves, while Belgian courts indicted Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon, all amidst a firestorm of anti-Israel invective in the European press that frequently crossed the line to outright anti-Semitism.
As for the U.N., its bias against Israel is notorious. Representation on the Security Council and other U.N. bodies is chosen by region. Israel, however, is the only U.N. state that has not been allowed membership in any regional body. Recently, U.S. pressure resulted in Israel's inclusion in the so-called Western Europe and Others Group that we belong to, but only on condition that Israel not be eligible for nomination to the Security Council. Israel has likewise never served on the U.N. Human Rights Commission, although it has scarcely been neglected by that body. On the contrary, during its most recent meeting, the UNHRC adopted no fewer than eight resolutions castigating Israel, while adopting no more than one on any other country and none whatsoever concerning the large majority of the world's dictators. Among the eight resolutions on Israel was one that endorsed the Palestinians' right to fight for their cause "by all available means, including armed struggle," which implicitly meant suicide bombings. (Six of the nine E.U. members of the body voted for this.) Meanwhile, in the General Assembly last year, no fewer than 40 percent of the few hundred resolutions put to a vote were also devoted to the denunciation of Israel. As if this were not enough, the U.N. maintains three permanent bodies devoted exclusively to Israel- bashing. They are the Division for Palestinian Rights of the U.N. Secretariat, the Committee to Investigate Israeli Practices in the Territories, and the Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People. A less suitable intermediary would be hard to invent.
The quartet itself, according to the New York Times, was the creation of Terje Roed-Larsen, the U.N. special envoy to the Middle East, who proclaimed last year that "the government of Israel has lost all moral ground in this conflict," by which statement, so one would have thought, he lost all moral ground as a negotiator.
THE STILL DEEPER FLAW in the road map's premises is the presumption that with the terms of settlement fairly apparent, all that is needed is a guide for getting there. In the final analysis, however, the missing ingredient for peace between Israel and the Palestinians is not a blueprint of the destination, nor is it the route. The missing ingredient is a decision by the Palestinians and the other Arabs to accept the existence of a Jewish state in their midst and to live in permanent peace with it. Despite all the Palestinians have suffered these two and a half years, public opinion polls show that a clear majority of them support continuing the intifada and suicide bombing and that about half say that the goal should be the "total liberation of Palestine," in other words, the elimination of Israel. The other half of the Palestinians say they want a two-state solution. When that half grows and becomes dominant, then and only then, will real peace be possible.
Since the Six Day War, the critical divide in international approaches to the Arab-Israeli broil has been between a negotiated settlement and an imposed one. Israel has insisted on the former precisely because it wants a settlement to be more than pro forma. In an imposed settlement, the Arab representatives might make some empty prescribed gestures in return for concessions that could facilitate future efforts to destroy Israel. An example of such a gesture was the statement that Joschka Fischer, the German foreign minister, wrote and induced Arafat to issue denouncing the suicide bombing of the Dolphinarium disco that killed two dozen Israeli teenagers in June 2001. A month later, the parents of the attacker proudly showed German television interviewers a letter from Arafat proclaiming their son a "martyr" and "a model of manhood and sacrifice for Allah and the homeland."
That an imposed settlement is precisely what our European partners in the quartet have in mind was made abundantly clear by their response to Bush's announcement of the road map. The president said that upon its delivery to the parties "we will expect and welcome contributions from Israel and the Palestinians to this document." This evoked anguished reactions. The New York Times quoted one "Western diplomat" as complaining that "it's not meant to be a negotiated document," while the Washington Post cited "a senior European diplomat" who said: "When we negotiated it, the idea was to impose the road map, not to put it on the table." Who will prevail within the quartet remains to be seen, but the road map itself, with its dozens of sequenced prescribed steps, smacks more of an imposed than a negotiated settlement.
The simple reality is that the moment the Palestinians make a wholehearted turn toward peace, no road map will be necessary. Sadat had no such guide. His historic trip to Jerusalem was a sequence of improvisations. But when he addressed the Knesset and demonstrated his acceptance of Israel with palpable sincerity, he got back every inch of the Sinai and other demands as well. The territorial issues in the West Bank are more complex, and the Palestinians are not likely to get every inch, but a dramatic demonstration of willingness to accept Israel and live in peace would elicit sweeping concessions. Sharon has said he is willing to make painful compromises, but in response to such a gesture from the Palestinians, the Israeli public would insist on going further than Sharon probably has in mind to do. What would such a gesture look like? There is no need for outsiders to write a script. When the feeling is sincere, it will be easy enough to convey. Until it comes, even the most carefully crafted road maps will lead nowhere.

Mandrake 9.2 as Internet gateway for small local network
Hi all!
First of all: I'm a Linux-newbie, so please be kind to me ;-)
I'd like to use Mandrake 9.2 as an Internet gateway for my network... Does anybody know where I could find some info on this? I already installed the server and it sees both cards eth0 and eth1, eth1 for the local network doesn't seem to work, although the configuration is ok... I cannot connect to the server from my workstation (also running Mandrake 9.2...)
My configuration looked like this before I installed Mandrake on the server:
A Windows server connected to the local network using one card: 192.168.0.1 for the server on the local card, and DHCP on the second card to the cable modem. Wingate as internet gateway where I could configure all ports for traffic in and out (like port 80 for http, 1080 for socks, 21 for ftp etc...)
I then installed Mandrake on my workstation, configured the proxy settings as mentioned above and everything worked...
Then I installed Mandrake on the server, and it tells me the next:
1. both network cards have been configured properly, in the configuration center I see eth0 as DHCP, eth1 as static 192.168.0.1.
2. I can use the internet from the server, so this also works.
I cannot ping the server from my workstation or the other way around, although both have the same subnet masks (255.255.255.0), and the IP's are configured as they should... Server 192.168.0.1 and workstation 192.168.0.10 and they still don't see eachother.
Maybe it's because my server name is some odd name I got from the cable provider like "comp9999.something.gawex.pl" and not "tango" as it used to be???
Can anybody help me???
Thanks a lot in advance!

The Parish Census of San Lorenzo Martire in Picinisco was taken in 1853 and updated with births, marriages etc until the late 1890's. It is an invaluable resource for tracing your family in Picinisco. Entire family groups complete with paretns names and birthdates can be found in one place.
Today, I was at the church and the book is falling apart. It is in desperate need of rebinding. The parish does not have the 300 euro it would take to restore this valuable resource.
Since I am there regularly I would like to make an offer to all who are researching their Picinisco heritage.
For each donation of 50 euro I will look up (the book is not in any kind of order) your family and send you a copy of the census.
Donations should be made via PAYPAL in Euro as a GIFT (via Family & Friends) to italysearch @ gmail.com (no spaces). Please mark it DONATION TO PICINSICO.
Your family information can be sent to the same email address and I will do the 'look up' and email your family census.

I am confused about Avellino. Is it a town or a province? What is its relationship to Lacedonia. When doing research I find references to Lacedonia and Avellino and I am not sure what they mean.
How large is Avellino now, and how large was it around 1900?
My family immigrated to the US between 1907 and 1914 or so from Avellino. I am interested in the surnames Megliola, Pierro and Lanzalotti, among others.

No big surprise: Jefferson and Perkins expected success
|02.01.09 at 4:26 pm ET
If someone had said during the Boston Celtics 18-game losing streak Kendrick Perkins would win an NBA Championship and Al Jefferson would become an All-Star caliber player in less than two years, they would have been laughed at. Yet the pair of big men have made a remarkable turnaround from the dismal 2007 season. And while their accomplishments may have seemed unlikely just a few seasons ago, neither are surprised by the others success.
'It's funny because his game has improved a lot, of course, because every year you have in this league you get better and better,' Jefferson said of Perkins. 'But the things he's doing now, I'd even seen them when I was here.'
Jefferson and Perkins faced off on Sunday when the Celtics took on the Timberwolves in Boston. (RECAP HERE) Perkins was nonchalant about the match up — 'Man, I just want to hoop' — and seemed unfazed by the success of his close friend. The two had a strong chemistry on and off the court, and saw potential in one another early on. So when Jefferson was the centerpiece of the Kevin Garnett deal, Perkins wasn't shocked.
'He's grown a lot, but he was doing the same thing when he was here,' Perkins said. 'It's not like he just developed into this star player when he got to Minnesota. That's why he got traded for Garnett, because he was that type of player before he left here.'
In Jefferson's last season with the Celtics, he averaged 16 points and 11 rebounds. This season he is ranked first among all centers in scoring (23.2 ppg), fifth in rebounds (10.6), and has recorded 26 double-doubles.
'I think Al is really learning how to be a leader,' Perkins said. 'You can tell he's talking more, he's communicating on the court, he's telling guys where they need to be. I think Al's stepping up, being more of a vocal leader. He's taking pride in playing defense and it's really just going from there.'
Even when the Celtics were losing, Jefferson was one of the bright spots on the team. Perkins, however, struggled to learn his role as a defensive presence. He forced baskets and was reluctant to scale down his offensive game.
'The biggest thing when I was here was he was the type of guy who wanted to rush his offense, he wanted to take shots, he wanted to kind of like be a scorer,' Jefferson said. 'And Doc (Rivers) used to always tell him, 'You're not a scorer. You're the type of guy who sets pick and rolls. That's how you get your point.' And I think that's what he's doing now. He finally accepted that and now he gets his points. He scores just as much now just doing his role by setting picks and rolling to the front of the basket, getting offensive rebounds. He's getting his points that way and I think he's finally accepted his role and that's what's making him a great player.'
It took losing the player he relied on the most for Perkins to improve his game. He is averaging 8.3 points, 8.0 rebounds, and shooting 59.5% from the field this season, compared to 4.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 49.1% FG in his last season before the trade. Perkins soaked up Garnett's veteran knowledge and even began to implement a high-low pass that he learned from Jefferson.
'That's all he really needed was a guy like KG who was defensive-minded just to bring him up even more,' Jefferson said. 'So the things he's doing now, I'd seen them when I was here. Perk was always one of the guys that was hard for me to score on even in practice. We used to go at each other so it's fun watching him grow as a player.'
At just 24 years old, Jefferson and Perkins are only beginning to reach their potential. But regardless of how successful the other becomes, it'll be no big surprise for these big men.
Perkins Cool With Call – By Jessica Camerato
The Captain and the Truth – By Paul Flannery
The Captain and the Truth
|02.01.09 at 3:52 pm ET
There were about four and a half minutes left Sunday when a guy in the loge seats yelled out, "All right, Paul. Time to take ov-ah." It wasn't a command, and it wasn't even a plea. It was more of a statement of fact. Of course Paul Pierce would take over because that is what Paul Pierce does in situations like this.
No Kevin Garnett. An 18-point halftime lead that had become five. What else would he do?
The Timberwolves had gone small in an effort to get back into the game which left Randy Foye singled up on Pierce. In retrospect, this may have been a miscalculation. (Click here for a recap of the Celtics' 109-101 win over the Wolves.)
First Pierce cut into the lane where he muscled up a shot and got two free throws. Next he backed Foye down from the elbow, slowly, deliberately, and then whoosh, he hit him with a spin move, a lay-up and a free throw makes three. For the capper, Pierce simply stared Foye down and drained a 15-footer right in his face.
Game over. Drive home safely.
"I just try to give the game what it needs," Pierce said after giving the game 36 points, eight rebounds and six assists. "Today, I thought it needed my scoring. I don't expect to go out and score 30 points a night. When Kevin's out there we play through him."
Yeah, but. It must be nice to know you can still do it when you have to, right?
"You go off (like that) and you say, 'I still got it,'" Pierce said with a wide grin. "Even at 31 (years old).
It's not that easy, of course. It can't be. If it was, every Tom, Dirk and Sebastian would do it.
"He didn't get a lot of credit the other night against Detroit, but I thought he won that game for us in the stretch where he was the one guy out there with the bench and he didn't score a point," Doc Rivers said. "His play led to scores, and he knew what he was doing. He was trying to suck guys in and get everybody shots. When he's the one guy with the second unit he does that as well as anybody.
"And then," Rivers continued, "he can sense when we need a bucket and he needs to take over games. Clearly you have to have the ability to do that. I think a lot of guys think they can, but very few actually can, and Paul does a great job with that."
Pierce has reached an interesting stage in his career. He has proven, on the game's biggest stage, that he is one of the great players in the world. There was never any doubt, for example, that Pierce would make the All-Star team this year even though a superficial look at his numbers would suggest that he is not nearly as productive as he has been throughout his career. His scoring average, to cite the obvious, is the lowest it has been since his rookie season.
A quick look at his last five games tells a disjointed tale.
Orlando: 27 points, 10 rebounds four assists
Dallas: Eight points, five rebounds, one assist
Sacramento: Eight points (1-for-5 shooting), three rebounds, eight assists
Detroit: 20 points, four rebounds, five assists
Minnesota: 36 points, eight rebounds, six assists
It is exactly because Pierce can go an entire game in which he makes one shot and then turn around and effortlessly drop 36 a few days later when his team is missing one of its key players that he has become so great. He has found the last few years the one thing that he has always wanted back from the game: respect.
Early in his professional life he would tick off the names of the teams that passed over him in the 1998 draft and the players they chose while knocking down shots in practice. As the names of the recently departed shuffle off to retirement, or inactivity–Michael Olowokandi, Raef LaFrentz, Robert Traylor, Jason Williams–it becomes clear that whatever the issue was on Draft Day had more to do with bad scouting than with Pierce's ability or attitude.
He has made seven All-Star teams, but never as a starter. He has never finished in the Top 10 in the MVP balloting and never been voted higher than Third-Team All-NBA, which he has accomplished exactly three times. He was, as he said, "A classic example of a great player stuck on a bad team." Pierce took a lot of heat for that statement, but in retrospect he was absolutely correct.
Great players are supposed to take all the abuse and make all the shots, but more than that, great players are supposed to lift up their teammates and make them better than they really are. There's a lot of evidence out there to suggest that that particular notion is entirely bogus. (Would James Worthy and Kevin McHale have been Hall of Famers if they hadn't played with Magic and Larry? The way you answer the hypothetical reveals how you feel about that argument.)
What we have with Paul Pierce in 2009 is a player who is entirely at peace with himself and his game. We have a player fully capable of going off for 30+ whenever the situation calls for it, and one who is content to provide for others whenever it is not.
That's the only truth that matters for the Captain.
Celtics-TWolves Game Blog: Fourth Quarter

For Paul's third quarter recap, click here.
Fourth Quarter Observations
– Doc started the fourth quarter with Pierce and the second unit in. Jefferson is taking a breather so this would be a good opportunity for Powe and Davis to take advantage at the hoop.
– Still waiting for Kevin Love to score. He was, after all, a top five draft pick but has struggled with first-year inconsistencies this season.
- I have to give the T'Wolves credit today. They're managing to keep it close without Rashad McCants, who was favoring his right elbow before the game. McCants it their leading scorer off the bench and so far they've got just 11 points out of the reserves so far.
– Big Al has developed into such a versatile player since leaving Boston. Guys like Dwight Howard and Shaq get credit for being a big body in the paint but Jefferson has added a dangerous mid-range shot to his repertoire. Have I mentioned Jefferson was snubbed??
– A trey and three-point play from Randy Foye closed the gap, but Pierce thrives in close games. The captain is already pushing 40 points and there is still two minutes to go.
– The Garden's clearing out with the Celtics up by eight at the 30-second mark.
- Celtics win, 109-101.
Celtics-T Wolves Game Blog: Third Quarter
|02.01.09 at 1:28 pm ET
After a tremendous quarter the Celtics are holding an 18-point lead. Interesting that Doc Rivers found time for Patrick O'Bryant to start the second quarter. Now is the time to find out what they have with the young 7-footer and while his four minutes weren't the most brilliant four minutes it was good for him to get some meaningful run.
The Celtics defense has also stepped up after a sleepy opening. They seem to be hitting on all cylinders and it's huge to keep cranking out wins with the race for the Eastern Conference's top spot likely going down to the wire.
On to the second half…
THIRD QUARTER WRAP: And we've got a ballgame folks. Al Jefferson lit his old team up scoring 14 of his 30 points and Minnesota is back within 14 points at 87-73. It's a comfy lead for the Celtics, but it's not a done deal yet by and stretch.
For the C's, Paul Pierce was the man with 14 of his 29. Big Baby also gave the Celtics good minutes, taking two charges and scoring five points.
Third Quarter Observations
— Had a quick cup of coffee with the local chairman of the Bassy Telfair fanclub at halftime. For obvious reasons he shall remain anonymous. At any rate he pointed out that during the pregame intros Craig Smith got a nice hand, Ryan Gomes got a nicer hand, Al Jefferson got a standing O and Kevin McHale got the biggest cheers. Bassy got booed.
We're in the fourth year of his career and it still remains to be seen if he will ever be an effective NBA player. No doubt he's playing better than he has at other points in his career but his game remains a serious work in progress. Would a year or two playing for Rick Pitino have made a difference? It may have, but at this point he's looking at a Marcus Banks-esque career.
— This is gut-check time for the Wolves, and don't you just hate cheap sportswriting cliches? They've got it down to a dozen and there's still 18 minutes or so left in this one. Big Al has gone for 24 and seven on 10-for-13 shooting but the defensive presence just isn't there at the other end. A solid NBA team would look at the next few minutes as an opportunity to get into position to try and steal one. Will the Wolves?
— For the Celtics, this is Pierce time. The Captain has been able to get essentially what he wants this afternoon and now would be a good time for him to re-establish control.
— The Celtics are a little out of sorts offensively. They tried to go into Pierce (who has Randy Foye on him) but Minny is doubling him at all times. Somebody's got to make a shot.
— Still a lot of contact going on out there. Still, not a lot of calls. Consistency is good, so long as its stays that with through crunch time. (If there is a crunch time today).
— Pierce is carrying the Celtics.
Celtics-TWolves Game Blog: Second Quarter
|02.01.09 at 12:48 pm ET
FIRST HALF WRAP: One player is not enough to beat the Celtics. Perhaps the Timberwolves will realize that down 18 points at halftime. Al Jefferson leads all scorers with 16 points and while he is having a standout game, his teammates aren't doing much to help. (Sebastian Telfair has 8, Ryan Gomes has 6). I'm looking for more out of rookie Kevin Love (0 points, 3 rebounds) in the second half. Meanwhile the Celtics are leading a balanced attack without KG. Pierce and the Allens have combined for 41 points. Perkins has added eight points and seven boards. The Timberwolves have their work cut out for them in the next 24 minutes.
Second Quarter Observations:
For Paul's first quarter recap, click here.
– Patrick O'Bryant is getting some early play at the start of the second quarter.
– Doc Rivers wasted no time calling a timeout two minutes into the quarter. A Mike Miller trey isn't sitting well with him. On that note, Eddie House missed his first long-range attempt of the game.
– Tony Allen is showing no lingering signs of his ankle injury. He's back to the old TA this afternoon, driving hard to the basket.
– Paul Pierce heads to the bench with a game-high four assists.
– Cue the highlight reel. Eddie House drained his first three of the game, prompting a T'Wolves timeout and a collection of his treys on the Jumobtron set to Stevie Ray Vaughan's "The House Is Rockin.'"
– Even with Al Jefferson on the court, the Timberwolves are not attacking the hoop. They have scored just two points in the paint in the first six minutes of the second quarter. Big Al can't do it all on his own, and as a result he ends up snubbed for the All-Star Game because of his supporting cast.
– Ryan Gomes vs. Paul Pierce: This is a match up Gomes was excited for. This week he told WEEI.com, "It was always a challenge to guard him in practice and it's a challenge now. He was MVP of the Finals and everyone knows his game. He can score and put the ball in the basket, he's the kind of guy who can make his team go. Everyone's playing well for him. But I have to defend him also so it's going to be a good challenge because when I was in college I tried to model my game after him a little bit, so it's always good to play against one of the best players in the NBA at the small forward position."
– "Where best fans in the world happens" – the Celtics made their own tribute to the Boston faithful with a take on the "Where amazing happens" videos.
– Sebastian Telfair has been impressive in the first half. He has a lot more control over his game than he did with the Celtics and he's making smart choices with the ball.
- At the half … Celtics 62, Timberwolves 44
Celtics-T Wolves Game Blog: First Quarter
|02.01.09 at 12:06 pm ET
Greetings from the Garden where we are live for today's game between the Celtics and the Timberwolves, aka the former Celtics. The question for today: Is there any force on this mortal coil that could keep Kevin Garnett from making his appointed rounds against hid old team? Apparently there is. It's called the flu and it has knocked KG out for today and possibly into next week.
Big Baby Davis gets the start in his place and he has been playing the best ball of the season. He'll have his hands full trying to help stop Al Jefferson, et al. We're about ready to begin and we'd be remiss if we didn't mention that Kevin McHale just got a standing ovation during pregame warm-ups when his image filled the JumboTron.
KG may not be here, but Jess and I are back in force. Let's have at it…
FIRST QUARTER WRAP: Great quarter by Kendrick Perkins who went for nine points and five rebounds. The Celtics are owning the boards, 13-5, even without Kevin Garnett in the lineup. Minnesota has cooled off after a fast start. It will be interesting watch how this game is called the next three quarters. The refs let a lot of contact go without calls in the first 12 minutes.
First Quarter Observations
— Of course Kendrick Perkins will have Big Al most of the day, but Baby will have to keep an eye out to help. That's where a player like Garnett would have been valuable today.
— That's the second time I've seen Rondo break out the overhead diagonal bounce pass on the fast break. Those things aren't accidents folks. It may look funky sometimes but there's not much that Rondo does that he hasn't thought through a few times.
— If Minny is going to insist on putting Craig Smith on Perk, that's a matchup the Celtics should be able to exploit. Perk's offensive game has been coming along nicely the last year or so. If he gets just a little more fluid, he has the touch, and you know he has the bulk, to be a very productive low-post option.
— If you could have one guy back from the KG trade–besides Al Jefferson–whom would it be? Got to be Ryan Gomes, right? A versatile 6-8 or so forward with range would be ideal on this team. Of course, it's still a trade you make every day of the week and twice on Sundays, but I think the rest of the league is finally acknowledging that it wasn't the straight-up steal people thought it was at the time.
— Four turnovers already for the Celtics. If they keep a lid on that they can go for 110 again. Great start by Paul Pierce who is 4-for-4 and nine points. This is a game for Pierce to really pick up his scoring. As has been noted several times, I love the way he's playing this year. He's in the flow, so to speak. Time for him to ride the wave this afternoon.
On the other side, you can see what not having KG does to the defense. The T-Wolves are getting good looks, and they're making them.
— Great move by Ray Allen. He pump-faked the 3 and went hard to the basket. He's doing that so much more than he did last year when he was basically a catch-and-shoot player. And yes, he got robbed for the All-Star team. Rondo too.
— Minnesota has zero rebounds. Sorry, now they have one.
— Kevin Love and Mike Miller are in for Minny. Miller is the subject of much trade rumor mongering and he would definitely help a contender. The guy has very quietly put together a solid career. Love, meanwhile has also put together a decent, if not overwhelming, rookie campaign. Safe to say he's a better rebounder than people thought he would be. Once he extends his range he should be a solid NBA player for the next decade.
— Larry Fitzgerald will be lucky to get as many yards after the catch as Tony Allen just got on that drive.
More than trade bait
|01.30.09 at 6:21 pm ET
An NBA title with the Boston Celtics has made it easy to forget about Kevin Garnett's days with the Minnesota Timberwolves. He is no longer the player who couldn't win it all. Rather he is the champion who proved anything is possible.
Yet the former Celtics who were involved in the blockbuster deal are still known as 'the guys traded for Garnett.' It has been two seasons, though, since the move and now they are ready to make a name for themselves in Minnesota.
'We're thankful for what [the Celtics] gave us but now we've got to set our own trends, set our own careers,' Ryan Gomes said in a telephone interview. 'We're not with the Celtics anymore. We know who they have and what they've accomplished, but now we've got to try to set other goals for ourself.'
Gomes, Al Jefferson, and Sebastian Telfair are the only remaining players on the Timberwolves from the 2007 trade. (Gerald Green and Theo Ratliff have signed with other teams.) Last season they finished 22-60, their worst record since the pre-Garnett era. In attempt to establish a new identity, the Timberwolves made off-season moves to acquire a highly-touted rookie and veteran shooter. Nonetheless they got off to an eight-game losing streak.
'What people should understand is that we had high expectations coming into this season, with the trade of Mike Miller and getting Kevin Love and Brian Cardinal and Rodney Carney,' explained Gomes. 'We had high expectations and it didn't work out for the first 35 games.'
The Timberwolves were 4-15 when head coach Randy Wittman was replaced by former VP of Basketball Operations Kevin McHale. Ironically it was a Celtic great who got the Timberwolves playing their own style of basketball. They headed into the new year hot off a five-game winning streak.
'In the beginning we did go through a rough time,' Gomes said. 'Our schedule in the month of December was real tough and we were trying to find ourselves. But now we've found ourselves and I think that's why we're playing well. Everyone's understanding their roles and fulfilling them, and I'd say that's the most important thing. Whenever you have success that means everyone's doing their part.'
Gomes points to a demoralizing loss as the source of their improved play. In December the Timberwolves (then 6-24) blew a 29-point lead in the third quarter to the Dallas Mavericks. In spite of losing, the Timberwolves gained confidence and momentum.
'We ended up losing that game and that was what turned it around,' said Gomes. 'We had seen what we could become and where we were at, and then they took it away from us. They kept fighting and kept pushing through it and believing they could win, and I think that's what we took out of it. We had a tough stretch where we lost 13 games in a row early in the season and that game showed that we can bounce back and we can make something of the season. There's a lot more games to be played, and once that came in January we got off on the right foot and we've been rolling ever since.'
The Timberwolves are 9-3 since January 1, including upsets over the New Orleans Hornets and Phoenix Suns. They will look to continue their streak when they face the Celtics on Sunday in Boston. Their former teammates have taken notice.
'First of all, Big Al's playing like an All-Star,' said Kendrick Perkins. 'Second of all, Randy Foye has stepped his game up. Rodney Carney, the rookie (Kevin) Love, Sebastian (Telfair), they're all playing well. Since coach Kevin McHale got the job, they've been playing well. They're playing good defense and I've been watching them lately on TV, so they've been playing really well.'
With just under 40 games left on their regular season schedule, the Timberwolves are nine games out of the eighth spot in the Western Conference. A postseason berth is a longshot, but Gomes doesn't mind waiting. Even if their time doesn't come this season he is confident it's only a matter of time before the Timberwolves establish themselves as a playoff contender.
'I think the Timberwolves are a team on the rise and this year is not over,' Gomes said. 'We've got a lot of games to play and if we play the way we've played this month for the rest of the season, who knows where we'll be. Hopefully we can maybe sneak in the playoffs and if not we could be right there. Next year should be our breakout year to take what we did this year and carry it over next year from the beginning and have a successful season. So the Timberwolves should be a team that teams should be worried about in the West and in the East because of the way we've been playing lately.'

Minnesota bridge collapse shocked nation
The collapse of a major bridge in Minnesota on Wednesday was a shock across the nation. The bridge which serves as a major traffic artery of Minneapolis is part of the interstate system. The loss of life was tragic.
And yet it could have been worse. The bridge collapsed during the height of the rush hour.
The reverberations of the bridge collapse were felt across the nation as every city and state took a closer look at its own system of bridges with a new sense of urgency. Americans simply don't expect a bridge to collapse short of an act of God or the act of a terrorist.
But what this renewed scrutiny of the nation's bridges has brought is a realization of the deteriorated state of the steel and concrete spans that are so vital a part of the nation's traffic system. Whether marginally deficient or in need of serious repair, thousands of miles of spans are known to be in less than ideal state because of the daily pounding they receive as the nation's highways and interstates each year carry ever larger traffic loads. But the billions of dollars in highway funding to repair all those bridges just haven't kept up.
The investigation into the cause of the collapse of the I-35 bridge in Minneapolis has only just begun. The death toll stands at five, but that figure is expected to climb. The wonder is that more lives weren't lost. The collapse came during the midst of the evening rush-hour traffic with vehicles backed up on the span, the busiest in the state.
On Saturday, President Bush visited the site of the bridge collapse and pledged to cut any red tape that might slow down federal funds needed to rebuild the bridge.
Congress is already working to direct $250 million to rebuilding the bridge. The magnitude of the collapse merits such quick action. Finding a way to identify the money to rebuild the rest of the nation's deficient bridges will be more complex.
In Texas, for instance, the gasoline tax is no longer sufficient even to keep up with the need for new road and bridges, much less repairing the many deficient bridges in the state. In the Corpus Christi area alone, the state has identified a dozen spans that are structurally deficient, including the northbound lanes of the Nueces Bay Causeway. Should motorists be scared to drive across any of these spans? Not by any means. The bridges continue to do the job they were designed for, carrying thousands of vehicles every day.
But the list of deficient bridges does mean funds need to be identified so that these spans can be brought up to the highest standards. But the state gasoline tax, the chief source of state funds for highway construction and repair, has been unchanged since the 1990s. And the state fuel tax at 20 cents is one of the lowest in the nation. Likewise, the federal gasoline tax has been frozen for years.
Political courage lacking
Politicians in Austin and Washington are reluctant to raise fuel taxes because consumers struggling with higher gas prices may not have sympathy for politicians who raise fuel taxes. Thus, the romance in Austin with toll roads.
But even steep tolls may not produce enough money to keep up with the state's infrastructure needs. That's why some highway experts are experimenting with per-mile fees.
That would charge motorists based upon a mileage model rather than a fuel consumption model. The point is that deferring maintenance on bridges saves no money, but does put motorists at increasingly great risks, a point that was dramatically made in Minneapolis.
Whether higher fuel taxes, some tolls and even fee-per-mile, the money must be found to repair the miles of bridges that have been identified as deficient. Those bridges are deteriorating bit by bit ever day as they are pounded and twisted by the millions of tons of vehicles using them every day, every week and every month.

No responsibility for courthouse?
It is amazing that the County Council, full-time positions earning salaries of about $104,000, allowed for a project to be estimated at nearly half of its actual cost. Voters need to remember that we elect these individuals and obviously they have failed. Imagine if you made this type of mistake or shown incompetence at this level, would you still have a job?

Is Obama a PAC Man?
Friday, October 05, 2007
Guests:Paul Ryan
Comments [7]
Thank you Chestine!
I'm sick of all this "knee jerk dismissal of "conspiracy theories" and "conspiracy theorists'"
Like somehow everyone who questions ANYTHING about 9/11 if bonkers.
It's obvious that the media has done very little to investigate much surrounding the issue. The very fact that all of the 9/11 Commission served on various boards of airlines and war contractors should raise some eyebrows.
There are pre and post 9/11 theories that are valid and that is one of them.
Now, Brian, THERE is a topic to deconstruct: the knee jerk dismissal of "conspiracy theories" and "conspiracy theorists' - this seems to have arisen after the Warren Commission report which I remember my family receiving or acquiring - and I think it has been cleverly worked into the culture that it's ridiculous to think (or so-called educated people don't think) people conspire for desired results. This is as subjective as the accusation. it is VERY clever. I never believed much of what adults told me (lots of doubletalk from nuns and priests, tv, etc.)and even as young as i was, i wasn't so sure about how soon that fat book arrived at my house. Kids are intuitively onto lying adults, if only via vibration, and we (the other kids around me) felt pretty lied to from the get go. I also went to art school so wear different antennae anyway. But I just don't know where this dismissal out-of-hand comes from.
So...wait...let me get this correct:
Obama took PAC money in the PAST
Then he said he would no longer do it
and has stopped doing it
and WE ARE DOING A WHOLE SEGMENT ON IT??????????
Jesus H. Christ, talk about an obvious and pathetic attempt at a smear job
This is almost as bad as when you were trying to stir up dirt by asking whether it was a contradiction that Obama said he personally would not have invited Ahmadinejad(sp) to Columbia (a university) but that he said he would speak to him in the capacity of PRESIDENT
Nice try, Brian. You failed at smearing him again.
I wish they would say what PACs they ARE!!!!!!!!!!
Well...I don't know if that statement is fair but it is definitely clear that Brian is biased against Obama
I wonder why, Brian. Why don't you just come clean and tell us why you are so biased?
Probably because she is with AIPAC.
Brian is once again presenting a topic with an emphasis on attacking Senator Barack Obama. Isn't it time that Brian comes clean and acknowledges he is supporting Senator Clinton.
Brian is not a journalist, he can have his opinions and do his show. It is wrong though to hide an agenda behind feigned objectivity.

Warriors fans boo owner during ceremony
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP)
Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob worked into the wee hours of Tuesday morning to return ''hundreds'' of emails in the wake of a stunning display by typically well-behaved Bay Area fans, who booed him throughout a halftime ceremony to retire Hall of Famer Chris Mullin's No. 17 jersey.
JEERS FOR LACOBWatch Warriors fans boo owner Joe Lacob during Chris Mullin's jersey retirement ceremony.
As a visibly shaken Lacob struggled to make his tribute speech on Monday night at Oracle Arena, the crowd booed so relentlessly that Mullin eventually stood up and asked supporters to be patient with Lacob's vision for a franchise that has endured decades of futility.
''Sometimes change is inevitable and it's going to work out just fine,'' Mullin told the fans. ''With your support and patience and use that passion in the right direction, this thing is going in the right way. I've got great confidence in Joe, Mark Jackson, and everything will work out just fine.''
When the boos continued to rain down after Mullin spoke, Hall of Famer Rick Barry hopped out of his seat and also grabbed the microphone and tried to do his part to bring calm to what was supposed to be a special occasion.
''Hey, one second here. Come on, people. You fans are the greatest fans in the world, as everybody has said that,'' Barry said. ''Show a little bit of class. This is a man that I've spent some time talking to. He is going to change this franchise. This is crazy, seriously. Come on, you're doing yourself a disservice. ... I know he's going to do it, so give him the respect he deserves.''
Lacob said in an email that of the hundreds of emails he received after the alarming boo-fest, ''every single one of them has been supportive.'' The video clip of the halftime ceremony had generated nearly 50,000 views on YouTube by midday Tuesday.
''I and we appreciate that support. Tonight was tough,'' he said. ''I felt badly for Chris Mullin and all of the other Warrior greats who made the trip to acknowledge and show respect for one of the greatest players to ever play for the Warriors. But, it is sports.''
Along with years of losing, Golden State last week traded away star player Monta Ellis - and Lacob himself has said it was a terribly difficult decision as Ellis became one of his favorite players in the NBA and that of his family. The Warriors traded Ellis, Ekpe Udoh and Kwame Brown to the Milwaukee Bucks for injured center Andrew Bogut and swingman Stephen Jackson, who was then traded Thursday to San Antonio for Richard Jefferson and a conditional first-round draft pick.
It certainly didn't help that the trade was still so fresh when Ellis returned to make his debut with the Bucks on Friday night, with Milwaukee winning handily, 120-98.
''Obviously, many fans felt passionate about our recent trade of fan favorite Monta Ellis,'' Lacob said. ''We believe that they will understand this trade as we go forward. I just wish it hadn't tarnished the good deed of honoring someone who so clearly deserved the honor of retiring his jersey. The number 17 will never again be worn by another in a Warrior uniform.''
Lacob and co-owner Peter Guber have taken an aggressive approach to running the Warriors since purchasing the franchise for a record $450 million in July 2010 from longtime owner Chris Cohan - never a popular figure for how he operated the organization.
Power forward David Lee called it ''unexpected'' watching everything transpire during a halftime show that ''was such a positive ceremony.'' He understands that criticism comes with the territory in Lacob's position as a public figure running a professional sports team.
''It definitely showed our fans' passion. It's frustrating for the players as well as the fans right now,'' Lee said. ''We made a trade, which is in my opinion the reason why there was the reaction. We made a trade that's not going to help us this year. It's going to help us next year, when Andrew Bogut gets back.''
Golden State's new owners made sweeping changes even before their one-year anniversary of running the show last November.
FAN-TASTICCelebrities at playoff games like to see and be seen.
From bringing in first-time coach Mark Jackson to replace now-Kings coach Keith Smart, to adding Hall of Famer Jerry West in an advisory role and former sports agent Bob Myers to work under general manager Larry Riley as the GM-in-waiting, and adding former Phoenix Suns executive Rick Welts as president and chief operating officer in late September, Lacob has done it his way with no apologies.
Even if these Warriors will miss the playoffs again despite Jackson's promise of reaching the postseason. The franchise has appeared in the playoffs only once since 1994, making an improbable run to the second round in 2007 under NBA career wins leader Don Nelson during his second stint as coach.
''Knowing him, knowing his commitment and knowing his passion, the day is going to come where he is truly appreciated around here,'' Jackson said Monday after his team's 97-93 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. ''I've been around a lot of owners and a lot of teams, and the guy is all about winning and putting forth the best possible product. We talked about it, and this is a process.''

Steve Jobs' widow, Laurene Powell Jobs, is speaking out for the first time since the Apple founder's death.
"We miss him every day," Laurene said in an exclusive interview with Brian Williams on NBC's Rock Center.
Her interview was intended to promote a documentary about immigration reform, The Dream Is Now, she made with filmmaker Davis Guggenheim of Inconvenient Truth fame.
PHOTOS: Ashton Kutcher On The Set Of Jobs: Get Inspired
But the conversation also included talk of her late husband.
"His private legacy with me and the kids is that of husband and father," she said.
She'll never speak about Jobs' death; that was a condition of the interview, Williams revealed. But how Jobs changed the world is another thing.
PHOTOS: Steve Jobs Through The Years
Married over 20 years, the couple had three children.
"Steve has a public legacy and a private legacy. In the public, we see the products that he created that he cared so deeply about that changed all of our lives in the way we function and communicate. What he wanted to do in his life was to create tools that allowed people to work at the highest levels. And I think he did that.
"Having the body of work surrounding us is a beautiful reminder, and I find it touching and inspiring for me that I continue to do what I'm most passionate about and I hope my kids feel the same way."

"That legacy," she said, "is beautiful for me to live with."

"Our counselors explicitly demonstrated the steps one can take to create a smoke-free home and coached smokers through those steps taking into account individual and family-level factors that could either facilitate or undermine the behavior change process," Collins said.
His research, presented at the Society for Nicotine and Tobacco Research's annual meeting on Feb 27, looked at the second smoke exposure rates of 229 mothers with young children. All participants received self-help materials, the standard of care in many underserved communities, but about half the group was randomly assigned to receive intensive behavioral counseling through FRESH's 16-week intervention. Counseling focused on enhancing motivation for smoking behavior change, coaching smokers through the steps of creating a smoke-free home, preparing mothers to quit smoking through skills training to manage urges to smoke, and reinforcing social contingencies that support a smoke-free environment.
The group that had the intensive, one-on-one interventions in their homes reported smoking an average of two cigarettes per day indoors (versus five cigarettes per day among those in the self help group), exposing their children to less second-hand smoke. Further, children of women in this group had lower levels of urine cotinine, a biomarker used to determine second-hand smoke exposure.
"Proactive behavioral interventions within the community, like Philadelphia FRESH, can be effective by providing health education, skills training to help smokers learn to manage stress without smoking, coaching to motivate and guid
