This is a unique coffee hailing from India. After harvest, the green coffee beans are exposed to the annual Monsoon winds of India for several months. As the beans absorb the moisture of the windy air, they expand in size and take on a unique flavor; it's even said the monsoon helps remove their acidity. We roast this coffee at a level somewhere between Light Roast and City Roast, which helps retain the very special taste characteristics of this bean.
Flavor Profile
This coffee is from
Monsooned Malabar sports an earthy flavor that is normally associated with Indonesian coffees, and is surprisingly smooth.

[Video] Cassie Shoots For New Young & Reckless Collection
Cassie is Reckless! Young & Reckless that is!
Earlier this year, the Bad Boy singer announced that she had designed a capsule collection for Young & Reckless apparel, and the partnership did well enough for the brand to re-up for a phase 2. This time around, famed photographer Jonathan Mannion was enlisted to capture some dope images of Cassie that will be featured on a line of tees.
We were on the scene for the full-day shoot kicking it with Cassie, Jonathan, and the whole Young & Reckless crew to sneak some behind-the-scenes footage with videographer Andre Landon. In between chasing her dog "Bam Bam" around the set, and getting a visit from model Cara Delevingne and her girlfriend Michelle Rodriguez, Cassie dropped this tidbit about her new collab:
You can expect just art. Something insightful. I think that…I spend a lot of time being quiet and I tuck myself away and I'm not always out there, so it's cool when I get to collaborate with brands and other creative people and just, you know, come up with something really dope for kids to get into. I'm excited about it and it can't get any better than this.

Tidbits from Pint Size Bakery & Coffee, Oceano Bistro
- Pint Size Bakery & Coffee opened this morning at 3825 Watson Road in south city. Pint Size features baked goods from Christy Augustin, whose career includes time as the pastry chef at Sidney Street Cafe (2000 Sidney Street; 314-771-5777) and the late, great King Louie's.
Pint Size is open from 7 a.m-3:30 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Call 314-645-7142 or visit Pint Size's website for more info.

- Joe Bonwich of the Post-Dispatch was the first to speculate that Oceano Bistro (44 North Brentwood Boulevard, Clayton; 314-721-9400) was contemplating a second, west county location. Now from George Mahe of St. Louis Magazine comes confirmation: The seafood-centric restaurant will take over the space vacated just last week by the Chesterfield location of Andria's Steakhouse (16125 Chesterfield Parkway West, Chesterfield; 636-530-9800).
- Does St. Louis need yet another frozen yogurt shop? The question is moot because resistance is futile. Tutti Frutti Frozen Yogurt, a chain that claims 580 locations worldwide, is setting up shop at 7708 Delmar Boulevard in University City.

DIY For Dad
This Sunday, June 17th is Father's Day, and if you're still stumped on a unique gift idea, look no further. This project I came across on Remodelista is so simple, you'll still have time to plan a barbecue lunch! (Originally posted on Norwegian blog Brigg.)
You've surely come across some captain's mirrors, and this is a version of those nautical-inspired mirrors we love so much. A clock is even more practical, and would be the perfect accessory in a kitchen, home office or cottage. Plus, I think the leather belts make it masculine and sophisticated enough for dad.
If you already have two old leather belts you can use, this project won't cost you much at all! First, pick up a simple black wall clock. Next, use two worn belts to create a suspension ring with suitable length. Glue the belts to the clock, let dry, and hang!
The concept is so simple, but the look is so effective! And dad will appreciate something handmade and practical.
For more project details, see the Remodelista post.
For more easy DIY projects, see our DIY & Home Improvement section. Plus, get more ideas for Father's Day gifts.

The truth about liver detoxing
Several weeks ago I stated that I can trace the majority of the chronic and degenerative diseases back to three major organs or systems of the body. So far we have talked about two of them – the digestive system and the adrenal glands.
This week I would like to discuss the third.
The liver has over 500 functions that we in our finite minds even know about. Some of the main functions: It stores the body's glucose, which is the body's natural energy source.
Glucose, of course, also works in conjunction with the insulin. The thyroid hormones are converted from the inactive form to the active form in the liver. It stores the red blood cells. The majority of the body's cholesterol is made by the liver. The liver helps break down the body's fats. And the liver is like the oil filter in our car – anything and everything that is not of value to the body has to pass through the liver first, and then the liver sends the toxins and waste out of the body. Whew! If I were the liver I'd be tired by now from all that work! – and this is just the tip of the iceberg of all it is entrusted to do.
With today's toxic environment our liver is working on overtime. Things like exhaust fumes, pesticides, heavy metals, perfumes, cleaning products, upholstery, carpeting, chlorine and fluoride in the water, and the list goes on and on. All of these things are laden with toxic chemicals. Then there is the internal environment of our bodies – it too contributes to the toxic burden. Especially with all of the processed and packaged foods, sugars, fast foods, fried foods etc. that Americans are consuming in abundance these days – these are all very, very toxic to the liver.
Stress will also cause the body to be toxic and these toxins get bogged down in the liver. If the pH of the internal environment of our bodies is too acidic, the body can become toxic. Of course just the natural process of cells dying off is also waste product for the liver to dispose of.
Some of the more common signs and symptoms (although certainly not limited to) of toxic buildup are: allergies, arthritis, blood sugar problems, brain fog, carpal tunnel syndrome, chronic backache, chronic fatigue, colitis, constipation, headaches, hormonal problems, hot flashes, immune weakness, indigestion, gas, bloating, joint or muscle pain, mood changes, PMS, sinus congestion, skin conditions and much more.
Really, the symptoms could be endless.
So having said all of this, I encourage you to consider detoxifying your liver. In fact this is an excellent place to start with restoring the body back to good health. Quite often this is where I start with my patients. I personally do this once a year as maintenance.
There are a variety of ways to do this. You can buy a consumer product at any health food store, see a natural healthcare practitioner for a professional level detox, or simply look on line for ways to detoxify the liver using food – juicing primarily. The protocol organ – the liver.
I put my patients on is very easy to do and not overly inconvenient. It's a three-week program, you drink two, essentially tasteless, detox drinks a day, eat lean proteins and vegetables (ideally organic), take some prescribed supplements that are included and drink tons of clean water. The detox drinks make the toxins in the liver water-soluble and the toxins are then passed through the kidneys and out of the body through the urine. It not only cleans the liver but heals and repairs the kidneys, addresses any parasites that might be in the body (more people have parasites than they realize!), addresses any candida yeast overgrowth that can be in the body, addresses any heavy metals that might be there and does some healing and repairing of the small intestines. It's so easy and yet so important to do!
Once you have done a liver detox, you now have the "slate clean" so to speak. Then you can start building the body back up using good foods and supplementation. If you want to address things like cholesterol problems, diabetes, blood sugar imbalances, hormone imbalances, anemia and so much more, I would start with a liver detox first.
If you've been on a lot of medications, or have had rounds of chemotherapy and/or radiation, you definitely could benefit from a liver detox. Give it a try, I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

I enjoyed this movie because it was a throwback to a simpler way of living. I did however, think the girl playing Nancy Drew was too thin. I did not care for the fat boy playing her sidekick. For one thing, he was allowed to be fat while she was emaciated. For another thing, she did not need his crude attempts and pranks to get to know her better. The movie stayed elevated despite this bad character placement.
Her outfits and jewelry alone made the movie worth seeing. Her style was a young version of "English dowdy." Even her bathrobe was plaid. I liked the style pickups in her outfits, such as the matching plaid headband, the hatpin-like brooch that had her initials on it and the cute little necklace with the locket on it as well as her earrings. It was as if she was a little old lady in a young girl's body.
Her perfectionism was entertaining too. The car (a Sunbeam?) was cute.
The older boy that was sort of like a boyfriend was much easier to be around with his easygoing ways and quiet love and respect for Nancy Drew.
I hope they make more of these. It was relaxing and fun.
Nancy Drew
Initial Reaction: Nancy Drew what?
Main Characters
Nancy Drew: She's a teenaged sleuth played by Emma Roberts
Carson Drew: He's Nancy's father played by Tate Donovan.
Corky: He's a kid played by Josh Flitter.
Jane Brighton: She's a woman with a secret past played by Rachael Leigh Cook.
Plot Summary
Nancy and her father move out to California into a house Nancy picks. Why? Because Nancy is into solving crimes, and the house she and her father are moving into has an unsolved murder (yes, there's a murder in this film).
But her father doesn't want her doing any more case solving because he fears she'll get hurt or killed by the perpetuators of the crimes Nancy's investigating. So, Nancy secretly looks into the mystery of the house behind dad's back.
What's the mystery? Well, a famous star and former owner of the house, actress Dehia Draycott, goes missing for several months, then shows up, then shows up floating in the pool dead.
It isn't long before Nancy gets leads on the Draycott case. Was the star pregnant? Did she have a kid when she vanished? Were there jealous rival lovers, and if so, did one of them kill her? Nancy's going to get to the bottom of the case -- no matter if her father likes it or not.
Main Characters
Emma Roberts and Tate Donovan do very good jobs playing out their characters. I'm always a sucker for good chemistry between father and daughter, and these two have it. Jane Brighton is also good as a key player in the Draycott case.
However, I found Corky to be too annoying to like. Kids that young shouldn't be on murder cases. SCORE: 7
Supporting Cast
Forgettable. There's the love interest that is just a bland guy, two girls who try to be popular, but aren't (in my book), and the bad guys, who are just dumb (I'll explain later). SCORE: 3
I like the main plot of the story; Nancy does a good job of going through the steps of an investigation. But there are parts I didn't believe. The citizens are way too helpful; they hand over confidential and personal information to a strange teenage girl without asking why she needs it.
Another problem is the villains: they sure are dumb. In once scene, they capture Nancy and put her into a room. But Nancy gets out of the room through an unlocked window. Don't you wish every criminal was this stupid?
There's also a side story about Nancy trying to fit in with the "In Crowd", but that story falls flat and is more of a distraction than anything else. SCORE: 3
There have been stories about kids solving crimes (Firehouse Dog comes to mind), but this movie does a good job of showing the steps in solving a crime. SCORE: 7
Violence Factor
Not much. The bad guys grab Nancy, there's a lot of running, a car chase, a bomb, and people get hit in the head with a shovel. But there's nothing too graphic. SCORE: 8
Other Moral Issues
One of the messages this movie gives is for kids to be themselves. However, that message was muddled with the poor performances of the "cool" girls.
Then there's a message about solving crimes. Well, in real life, teenagers can't just walk into a hospital and look at confidential records. And in real life, criminals aren't dummies (as much as we want them to be dummies). SCORE: 4
Final Score (out of 60): 32 % Score: 53.33%
Nancy Drew is about one thing: a girl and the mysteries she solves. This film piles on too many other things for it to work.
two new movies and a few retreads this week. lord of war was fairly impressive - until they did the "based on a true story" thing. I don't know why, but that actually detracts from the appreciation of the movie. and the feeling of disappointment was NOT from a real world sense of tragedy or any some such. it's definitely an aesthetic disappointment.
anyway...the movie moves along well. for some reason, nicholas cage is well suited to voice over work in his own movies. adaptation comes to mind in this capacity. the relationship with jared leto's character (his brother) could have been more convincing. or at least given more careful attention. any idiot could figure out that his life went to hell in a hand basket because of a crisis of conscience. and given the fact that he was the guy's brother for 20-30 odd years, and the guy was damn smart, even if he didn't sympathize with his brother, he certainly would have had an intellectual/rational understanding of what was going on with him. so that was a little annoying, I guess. but more than anything else, I think the preachy nature of the ending brings this one down from an 8 or possibly a low 9.
the proposition was another new one this week. it was pretty good but terribly uneven at times. usually, less is more with the crap directors who can't edit their own films, but this one needed less editing. or more exposition in places. or maybe it just needed to show more? that's kind of the opposite problem that most films have (they show too much). but then again, it IS an australian "western." heh. actually, I'm not much of an indie film guy (especially if it's something that involves action), so maybe I'm just hollywhipped that way? I don't know. the "flies are everywhere" symbolism/motif got on my nerves rather quickly.
Ah, the months of summer - when the movies that hit the local cineplex are either flashy action heart-racers (Die Hard 4.0, Transformers), cheerful family cartoons (Shrek the Third, Surf's Up), blockbusters (Pirates, Spiderman 3) or... well, silly fluffy little movies that are the equivalent of cinematic candy floss - light, sweet, inoffensive and gone in a jiffy. You barely remember anything of them afterwards, except, in some cases, for a rather sour, fake aftertaste. No prizes for guessing which genre of movie Nancy Drew fits into.
Adapted from a best-selling crime series for generations of teenage girls, the eponymous Nancy, as played by Julia Roberts' equally toothy niece Emma, is a perky sweetheart of a teen sleuth, obsessed with getting to the heart of mysteries and perpetually dressed as if she'd stepped out of the 1950s. Leaving her book-bound buddies Bess (Amy Bruckner) and George (Kay Panabaker) behind in River Heights (surely one of the most crime-ridden fictitious small towns ever created), she follows her lovingly anxious but neglectful dad Carson (Tate Donovan) to LA. She's promised her dad to be a normal kid and stop sleuthing... but how can she possibly be expected to resist when the ancient house they're living in belongs to murdered Hollywood star Dehlia Draycott (Laura Harring) and comes complete with creepy housekeeper Leshing (Marshall Bell) and clues aplenty... like a mysterious note from Dehlia to "Z", suggesting that Dehlia had many secrets before she died?
If you're a diehard fan of the Nancy Drew series, and grew up with the chronicles of the blonde teen detective's attempts to solve the myriad crimes that seemed to follow her everywhere, there's precious little in this movie that truly hints at what made the series such a hit across the world. Rather, ND is an awkward update of Nancy Drew for the new millennium - transforming her into a quirky, quippy brunette and transporting her into the glitzy world of Hollywood. Sprinkled throughout the movie are in-jokes for true fans, of course, like Nancy's clunkily charming blue Camero, her retro-hip 50s clothes (penny loafers included) and an extended visit from her ever-faithful, ever-understanding boyfriend Ned Nickerson (Max Thieriot). But, when it comes down to brass tacks, ND only shares the name of the heroine of the books - movie-Nancy does retain some of the books' smarts and resourcefulness (she'd have to, as she deals with threatening phone calls, car bombs and kidnap attempts by thugs). But, fatally, she seems rather like a fame whore as well (especially in an opening sequence which sees her negotiating with criminals and rappelling down the side of a church, proving just how incompetent local law enforcement officers are), and it doesn't help that her trusty sidekicks Bess and George hardly get a look-in. It's probably too much to expect depth out of a movie such as this one, but when everything inevitably comes tied up with a shiny, happy red bow at the end, you never feel quite as pleased as you did after reading the final revelations in the closing chapter of another Nancy Drew mystery.
All that being said, if you're willing to just sit back and enjoy a frivolous movie with next to no lofty ambitions in terms of artistry or longevity, ND is a fun enough watch. It's intermittently quite funny, and is self-aware enough to know that Nancy sticks out like a sore thumb in the world she lives in. Director Andrew Fleming (who also had a hand in the script) takes that and runs with it, playing up her differences for comic effect - when her preppy clothing wins rave reviews over her schoolmates' grunge outfits, or when she's offered the role of film director by a cameo-ing Bruce Willis. The pace of the movie is mostly snappy enough to pass the time, and the mystery, though nothing too complicated, has enough minor twists and turns - involving complications like a missing Chinese box and a dead film star's missing will - to remain engaging. Fleming probably hadn't intended for the audience to occasionally root for the irritatingly perfect Nancy to get her comeuppance, but he does drop in a couple of trash-talking, modern teenagers (Daniella Monet and Kelly Vitz) to serve as counterpoint to Nancy, allowing him to ram home the point that she's never going to be normal and she (and her dad and everyone else) should just accept it.
Roberts acquits herself fairly well in her first major leading role. It's jarring to see her at the beginning, bright and perky and almost too obviously young to play the part. But she has something of her aunt's screen charisma, and you soon get more or less used to her looking adorable in Nancy's 50s outfits. The breakout star here, surprisingly, is Josh Flitter, who plays 12-year-old Corky, a dorky, chubbily cute boy at her new school who has a crush on Nancy and follows her everywhere. He has very little to do with the plot except to serve as comic relief and to inject a little tension into Ned and Nancy's relationship, when Ned gets jealous of him. But Flitter is hilarious as he tumbles around the house after Nancy, or dances jerkily and dorkily at her birthday party.
If you're going to go in there hoping for something truly reflective of Nancy Drew the series, be prepared to be a little bit disappointed. ND is little more than a movie tailor-made for the tweenage set, with a spunkily cute heroine who shares some of her namesake's character traits but is very much another creation and character. But the movie is, at the very least least,a frivolous, mostly fun, non-taxing way to while away a summer afternoon...
Review Coming Later
Viewed 6/28/07
While I did not rate this movie very high, it was still a nice surprise for me. I was expecting a 5 or so but I found the movie flowed well, made me at least smile, if not laugh at times, and surprised me with a short cameo from Bruce Willis. Sure, the small town girl in the big city might have been done a time or two, crime solvers are a dime a dozen, and slow boyfriends in chick flicks are getting almost stereotyped, but there is a certain appeal, if not expecation when talking about Nancy Drew, who is looking mighty cute despite having been around for 70+ years. It would be easy to find fault with the plot, but why, girls 6-16 have had their super hero for several generations now and she has always gotten the job done. Most of us would rather cheer for a John McClane or a Pirate, but chances are your mother, and probably even her mother, grew up reading the Nancy Drew stories, wondering what it was like for her, and now, there is a movie for them to enjoy, and chances are, they will enjoy it a lot. This is a great movie to enjoy with an extended family, take your mom, or your grandma, they will love you for it.
Nancy Drew was a good movie!
Quick Theatrical Ratings Round-Up
I was feeling overwhelmed at how many movies I had seen in theatres (all of them, except "Sicko")... so I decided that I just needed to quickly rate the films. This doesn't mean I'm back, but I may do this every couple of weeks whenever I've seen alot of movies. Enjoy!
My Grade: C-
"Evening" is easily one of the most dissapointing films of the year... with such a great cast and a touching trailer, this movie had it made, yet it does everything wrong. The two different stories of the film are barely connected, and Claire Danes and Vaness Redgrave are both playing two vastly different characters (both with gusto, I must add), but that is not a good thing. Nothing that happens in this one evening adds any importance to whats happening in the present, leaving far too many unanwsered questions. Its a beautiful film to look at, yet it is so incoherent and tedious... that its an absolute chore to watch it all the way through.
Nancy Drew
RT Rating: 52%
Quick Thing: Mr Brooks is a nice little guilty pleasure, but even for me and man posessed with guilty pleasures this one is even too much to handle for myself. Its just so overworked, to over stuffed and tries TOO hard to bring back an era of this foggy suspense, pshycological, surpernatural thriller, it tries the old school charm just like Drews, but failed. The cast is great but all underused, the atmosphere is fine.. but you know when there is just to much dressing in a salad, its kind of like this..got to soggy for its own good and bit sickening.
Well I am sitting in my roomates room writing this journal entry.. with our other friend sleeping on her bed because he fell asleep while watching TV. Its so funnny!! Oh yawn stretch. I am tired.. So heres a list cause I dont feel like writing...

A year ago, Romain Grosjean was labeled Formula 1's 'first lap nutcase', and was slapped with a rare race ban after his crash at Spa-Francorchamps caused severe damage to the title front runners and his own Lotus.
But Mark Webber, the man who dubbed him of the 'first lap nutcase' , said on Thursday that the Frenchman has turned it around.
"Yes," the Australian is quoted by the Russian website Formula 1news.ru. "But he had no other choice. This year he is coping with the problems better, but let's face it – after last season, [improving] wasn't too difficult."
"In Budapest he made a mistake in the situation with Jenson Button, but his overtaking of Felipe Massa was really good," added Webber.
So, with his Lotus teammate Kimi Raikkonen strongly linked with a move away from Lotus, Grosjean is expected to stay at the team in 2014 – perhaps even as the new lead driver.
He agrees with Webber that he has been much improved this year.
"Well, a different state of mind, I think I've progressed a lot and worked on that and I think the 2013 starts prove that I did my duties," new father Grosjean said on Thursday. (GMM)

Product description
This book is intended as a commented summary of some of the major trends and most important features that can be encountered when analysing ancient Egyptian society of the Old Kingdom. We have to bear in mind that around 3000 BCE one of the first centralised states in our recorded history rose, and the Old Kingdom represents certainly one of its apogees. Moreover, there is hardly any comparable society that left behind such a wealth of archaeological and literary evidence, a welcome companion for our journey back in time. The goal for writing this book was to outline general trends in the history of the non-royal tomb development of the period. The reason is rather simple and straightforward: ancient Egyptians considered the tomb to be their afterlife residence for eternity. In the afterlife they replicated the life they experienced during the lifetime. Thus the tomb architecture, decoration, inscriptions and equipment paradoxically represent a major tool for our understanding of the everyday life of the ancient Egyptians and enable a better comprehension of the development and dynamics of the Old Kingdom. The book is divided into nine chapters covering, step by step, the development of the Egyptian tomb and society from the Predynastic Period to the end of the first six Egyptian dynasties, a lengthy period of time which covers the Early Dynastic and the Old Kingdom periods. These six chapters are accompanied by three additional chapters on religious aspects of the Old Kingdom society, its economy and environment.

As brilliant as LeBron James is on the basketball court, he's proving to be almost as talented a recruiter. The Cavaliers' trade for Kevin Love gives Cleveland a new "Big 3" that rivals what the Miami Heat put together back in 2010 with James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.
Make no mistake about it, this was all James doing. Yes, he wanted to do right by his hometown fans in Akron and Northeast Ohio by returning for a second stint with the Cavs, but there were also definite basketball reasons for his decision. James saw the decline in Wade's play over the last couple years because of an arthritic knee condition, and realized his title window on South Beach was starting to close. Getting blown out by the San Antonio Spurs in the Finals certainly played a part as well.
James saw new opportunity in Cleveland, with an All-Star point guard in Kyrie Irving and a pair of talented young players in Tristan Thompson and Dion Waiters. But he also knew Love was coming. Look back at his Sports Illustrated essay and you'll notice he mentioned just about every player on the Cavs roster except for Andrew Wiggins and Anthony Bennett, the two players he knew would be going to Minnesota in the trade for Love.
[MORE BULLS: Team USA cruises to win over Slovenia in exhibition finale]
Cleveland didn't break any rules in the extended process of completing the deal for Love — at least none the league will be able to prove — and you could even make the argument the Timberwolves came out with a decent package for the three-time All-Star, considering Love had made it clear he would leave Minnesota as a free agent next July if he wasn't traded. But the reality is, LeBron had a pretty good idea Love was coming before he announced his decision to return home. Would he have signed with Cleveland without knowing the trade for Love was in place? Hard to say for sure. And, it was almost laughable when Love said at his introductory news conference that he hadn't discussed a contract extension. The new Cleveland "Big 3" is locked in for the long haul.
Star players joining forces has become the rage in today's NBA. The Boston Celtics won a championship when Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett joined Paul Pierce back in 2007, and Miami won two titles with James, Wade and Bosh leading the way. The Los Angeles Lakers also won a pair of championships after trading for All-Star big man Pau Gasol to team up with Kobe Bryant and Andrew Bynum. San Antonio has its own "Big 3" with Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili, but those players were all acquired through the draft. The Bulls tried to create their own "Big 3" in the failed attempt to sign free agent scoring machine Carmelo Anthony to join Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah.
Which leads me to wonder, can you imagine Michael Jordan begging Patrick Ewing or Charles Barkley to join him and Scottie Pippen with those championship Bulls teams? Jordan was the ultimate competitor and took great delight in vanquishing the league's top players, some of whom were his friends during the offseason. The same goes for Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, who eventually built a friendship off the court, but wanted to crush each other when their teams played for championships in the 80s.
[MORE: Bulls one of many teams represented at FIBA World Cup]
The league is a lot different than it was in the 80s and 90s. Who can forget those physical Bulls-Pistons playoff battles with cheap-shot artists Bill Laimbeer and Rick Mahorn, or Isiah Thomas slinking off the court after getting swept by the Bulls in 1991? How about Pat Riley going from Showtime in Los Angeles to Bully-Ball with his 90s Knicks that featured Ewing, Charles Oakley, and Xavier McDaniel? Kevin McHale knocking Kurt Rambis out of the air on a breakaway lay-up attempt in the Finals.
The point is, instead of classic battles between the league's top players and teams, today's NBA stars are looking for the easiest path to team success and personal glory. When history looks back at James he'll undoubtedly be viewed as one of the top 5 players the NBA has ever seen, but don't forget, his record in the Finals right now is 2-3, while Jordan went a perfect 6-0, with six Finals MVP awards.
Getting ring chasers Love, Mike Miller, Shawn Marion, James Jones and most likely Allen to jump on board will help LeBron in his quest to add to his championship total, but is it really good for the competitive balance of the league?
That's a question Commissioner Adam Silver and the league's owners will have to consider as they plan for the future of the NBA.

McGoldrick Community Library is located in the Murray Hill section of Flushing (also known as Broadway-Flushing). It occupies an eastern corner of North Flushing. Broadway was the original name of Northern Boulevard. Before the area was developed it consisted mostly of nurseries owned by families named Parsons, King and Murray. This area was developed in1889, and in April of that year, the Murray Hill LIRR station was built on 150th Street and 41st Ave.
McGoldrick Community Library has had many different locations. Originally in 1911 service was provided from a small traveling station- unfortunately it closed in 1916 because of low circulation. In 1925 library service was started again but then closed two years later since adequate space for the library could not be found. In 1930, the library was established as the Broadway-Flushing library.
In July 1931, the library moved to a building on 162nd street and Broadway. During this time the name of the library was changed to McGoldrick to honor the late Reverend Edward F. McGoldrick, a local pastor and library trustee.
The library was moved twice to two different locations on Depot Road over the next 40 years, until 1974 when the library moved to its present location on 155th street and Roosevelt Avenue. The library serves a residential diversified community including Chinese, Korean and Spanish populations and has many materials available to the customers in their home language.

By Army Sgt. Stephen DecaturSpecial to American Forces Press Service
KANDAHAR, Afghanistan, Oct. 20, 2009 An Army Reserve soldier from Austin, Texas, who has been an emergency medical technician since 1993 was one of the last soldiers from Embedded Training Team Venom to leave Afghanistan's Zabul province when Task Force Fury assumed the mission.
Sgt. Jonathan Taylor's mission was to train Afghan soldiers and police to perform first aid, and to provide whatever medical care he could.
"I've stayed here as long as I can," Taylor said. "There's nowhere else with such a huge medical need. I'd stay here longer if they let me. There's lots of good work to be done."
Since April, that work has included 315 trauma patients, 55 urgent medical evacuations, amputations, head injuries, injuries from roadside bombs and vehicle rollovers, gunshot wounds, children shot by the Taliban and just about every sort of injury imaginable, Taylor said. In addition, he saw a range of medical conditions including bacterial and fungal infections, diabetes, heart attacks, ailments from drug use and the common cold.
Taylor provided care in an environment where usually only nine or 10 other American soldiers were around in a district with 50,000 people and no doctors.
"The normal support structure didn't exist, but the quality of care must remain," Taylor said. "You're the only decision maker with broad overall guidelines. There's every medical condition you can think of -- far more than you're qualified to handle."
Taylor trained six Afghan soldiers up to U.S. Army medic standards, and 12 soldiers and five police officers up to combat lifesaver standards. All of the Afghan soldiers were illiterate, Taylor said.
"It's hugely challenging teaching people who can't read or write to be a medic," he said. "They have to memorize everything, because they can't take notes. The [police officers] were easier to train, because they were literate."
Afghan police officer Abdul Halim, one of Taylor's students, recalled a roadside-bomb attack in which a fellow policeman had his hand severed and no one knew what to do.
"I didn't know how to help," Halim said. "We thought the man would die, because no one could help him. Now, if I saw someone bleeding, I'm confident I could help."
Halim said he will pass his knowledge on to his fellow police officers.
Taylor spent much of his tenure in Zabul resupplying and supporting operations. He covered 8,000 miles on the road as a driver doing resupply missions or moving between bases. Now that the embedded training teams in Zabul have been replaced by an entire battalion of combat advisors and a Stryker battalion, many more medics – as well as doctors and truck drivers -- are in the area.
"Hopefully, the greater resources will translate to a larger, more complete mentor mission," Taylor said. "All missions in Afghanistan exist to support this mission. Everything we do is to bring the military and infrastructure up to have the capacity of managing this country's affairs. It all exists so they can stand on their own."
Though he rarely receives thanks for his work, Taylor said, it has been incredibly rewarding.
"I'm proud of my career outside the Army, but this is the best work I've done in my life," he said.
(Army Sgt. Stephen Decatur serves in the 82nd Airborne Division's 4th Brigade Combat Team public affairs office.)

Left neglected on the bottom of my sidi's for years now these little guys have had my back through some sketchy adventures. Figured it was time for a replacement and it's amazing what a difference it makes to have cleats that are not worn down beyond recognition. My egg beaters feel brand new again. Don't wait, replace your nasty old cleats!

The Berlin Conference of 1884–85 was a meeting between European nations to create rules on how to peacefully divide Africa among them for colonization. The conference was convened by Portugal but led by Otto von Bismarck, chancellor of the newly united Germany. Though invited, the U.S. declined to participate. The resulting agreement, the General Act of the 1885 Conference of Berlin, banned the slave trade in name (though not in reality, especially in the Belgian-controlled Congo Free State) but otherwise encouraged European nations to aggressively colonize and exploit Africa's human and natural resources or to lose their claims under the Principle of Effectivity, which allowed signatories of the agreement to jump each other's claims if the claims were not being fully exploited.

OAK BEACH, NY (AP) — Investigators confirm one of several prostitutes found murdered in Long Island, New York is a native of Wilmington. The body of Amber Lynn Costello, 27, and bodies of three other women in their twenties were found along Ocean Parkway in December. Investigators say all four women advertised their services on Craigslist.
Since December, four other victims have been found along the remote highway. Detectives continue searching for Shannan Gilbert, 24, who was also a prostitute and offered services on Craigslist. Gilbert was last seen near the same highway where the eight bodies were found. Detectives suspect a serial killer but so far have no suspects.
"I'm just shocked," Sherre Gilbert said in a brief telephone interview after learning from Suffolk County detectives that her sister was not among the eight bodies found. "I am still hoping for the best outcome."
Shannan Gilbert, 24, who worked as an escort, was last seen last spring in Oak Beach, near where the latest remains were discovered, after apparently meeting a client she had booked through Craigslist. The bodies of four other prostitutes, all of whom advertised their services on Craigslist and were in their 20s, were found along the same highway by police searching for Gilbert in December.
A fifth body was located last week about a mile from where the first four were found and police on Monday said they uncovered the remains of three more people. Police have not identified any of the most recent victims and have not definitively linked them to the remains found in December.
Detectives suspect a serial killer but so far have no suspects.
The four dead prostitutes were found amid a 4-foot-tall tangle of sea grass punctuated by scrubby pine trees. Authorities have identified them as Costello, originally of Wilmington; Megan Waterman, 22, of Scarborough, ME; Maureen Brainard-Barnes, 28, of Norwich, CT; and Melissa Barthelemy, 24, of Buffalo, NY.
Although officers have searched the area several times since December, they intensified a search of the 7.5-mile area on Monday. After searching almost exclusively on the north side of Ocean Parkway, which leads to the popular Jones Beach, police academy cadets, K-9 units and other investigators moved to the south side of the roadway on Tuesday, searching a wide swath of sandy beach down to the ocean.
The north side of the highway has proved a challenging search for investigators, who have had to contend with a thicket of underbrush and evergreens, peppered with a variety of trash, from helium balloons to car tires to beer cans and bottles.
Although police were able to quickly rule out Gilbert as a victim because of forensic evidence they had on file in her case, identifying the four recently found bodies could take weeks or longer, officials have said. The New York City medical examiner's office is assisting Suffolk County officials with their investigation.
Gilbert had arranged to meet a client in Oak Beach last May. A resident of the gated seaside enclave told The Associated Press on Tuesday that a woman believed to be Gilbert came to his door around 4:45 a.m. on May 1, pleading for help.
Gus Coletti said that when he attempted to call police, she fled. He said he suspected the woman may have been intoxicated or high on drugs.
A few moments later, an unidentified man in a sport utility vehicle drove past the house and said he was looking for the woman, but then took off. Neither the woman nor the man was seen by the neighbor again.
The client Gilbert had arranged to meet was investigated by police but has not been named as a suspect in her disappearance.
Police said their search of the area for additional victims would resume on Wednesday.

Located in California, Los Angeles, this community expresses most of its attributes through professionalism. For this reason, schedules and image are crucial. Therefore, a massive search for simple solutions for carpet cleaning West Hollywood is the easy way out. Mushrooms of companies that tend to address this important part of hygiene for years have come up.
Depending on the type of service one wants, there are always several recommended ways to handle a problem. From rugs, couches, ottomans and recliners washing to futons and mattresses dusting, to employ effective specific methods for each is in order. Seasonal cleaning or just general, what matters is to complete the job to perfection.
The arguably simplest way is usage of vacuum cleaners. However due to the short-term nature of its services, it can turn out to be tiresome as it necessitates constant follow-ups. Time being a factor, this process regardless of its simplicity may prompt the acquisition of an expert. Continuous tidying is thus a relief.
A more prevalent mode is the hot vapor otherwise termed as steam cleaning. As the name suggests, it involves the application of steam. Through a nozzle, with propagated and regulated energy, the effect is instant and appealing. This has added to its popularity. It is capable of reaching parts not easily accessible through any other means. Its range of application is therefore wide as well as the recommendation by material industries.
The use of agents rather commonly referred to as shampooing is more of old-fashioned but still applicable. Through the incorporation of an appliance that turns a wad that translates the agent to froth, the washing process is simplified. Not as helpful when utilized solely, it calls for unification with other models. For instance, vacuuming is inevitable after completion to gather the muck and for aeration objectives.
Additionally, in-plants are for substances with soppy additions. It is a trifle pricey but overly effective and careful when handling of delicate materials. Considering the technology involved, no normal method could ensure the level of maintenance this program offers.
A more at-ease option is that for dry cleansing. Resembling the shampooing format in the sense that it contains a turning base fitted with a permeable rug, it is able to suck at stains and any soaked layers. Best used for restoration of material damaged by water of similar substance. Flipping of sides done to ensure maximum achievement of outcomes. An agent is necessary at times. This method does not access concealed surfaces hence rather ineffective when this is the intended objective.
Lastly, dry froth used for cleaning without the use of any moisture but just foam. Incorporated with opposite-revolving scrubbers, its agility is of importance. Clearly, it also encourages faster drying. Vacuuming is the last step for collection of grit suspensions.
The society dependent on the carpet cleaning West Hollywood unit is seemingly concise on results. The appearance is thus all about who they are. Such companies never cease to impress and make this a reality.

Indicator Report - Tuberculosis Cases
Why Is This Important?Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by a type of bacteria called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB is typically spread through the air when a person with TB disease of the lungs or throat expels tiny airborne particles (droplet nuclei). People nearby may breathe in these particles and become infected. People who have latent TB infection do not feel sick, do not have any symptoms, and cannot spread TB. But they may develop active TB disease at some time in the future. The bacteria usually attack the lungs but may attack any part of the body. The U.S. experienced a resurgence of TB disease between 1985 and 1992, when the number of TB cases increased by 20%. Early detection and treatment of TB are essential to control the spread of the disease and to prevent outbreaks.

Portable Bose sound systems for small audiences
There comes a time in every musician's career when he graduates from the open mic and comes into his own. When this time comes, a portable guitar amp will no longer suffice. Bigger gigs await, so bigger equipment is necessary. Bose has always been a trusted name for sound systems, and they offer great options for single performers and small bands with their line of Bose L1 Portable Sound Systems.
The Bose L1 Compact, Model 1s, and Model II (often referred to as the Bose L2) are the perfect options for larger venues like restaurants, clubs, and parties. Each offering has its unique advantages.
- L1 Compact System – is the most portable and the affordable at $999.95. Its bass is integrated in its power stand.
- L1 Model 1S – has seven total inputs and a B1 expandable bass module. The many inputs make it easier to switch between instruments and include more musicians at once.
- L1 Model II – improves on the Model 1S with 180 degrees of sound dispersion and has richer sounds for high frequency sounds like cymbals. The Bose L2 is also designed for an audience of up to 500 people.
When deciding between these systems, it is important to consider how many people you intend to perform with regularly. If you are a solo performer, then the Compact system should be sufficient unless you're intending on performing for over 300 people. In that case the Bose L2 is preferable. If you are in a band or often collaborate with local talent, then it would be wise to invest in a Model 1S system and maybe also purchase a Bose T1 ToneMatch. The sound quality between the Model 1S and the Model II is negligible with ToneMatch and it will cost you around $500 less.

A 31-year-old Victor man has been arrested following a standoff on Ketchum Street in Victor on Monday.
Ryan Whidden is charged with criminal possession of a weapon. Deputies say the charge against Whidden is a result of him being in possession of a loaded handgun and that he does not have a New York State pistol permit.
Ontario County Sheriff's Deputies say Whidden fired three shots at two parked vehicles and then barricaded himself inside his home with his wife until he surrendered to police around 8:30 p.m.
The shooting caused Victor schools to go into lockout mode for most of the day.
Whidden was arraigned and remanded to the Ontario County Jail in lieu of $250,000 cash bail or $500,000 bond.
Deputies say the incident remains under investigation and additional charges – including reckless endangerment – are pending.

In 2005 the residents of Austria's smallest town got so fed up with the lack of sunlight in their gloomy valley that they planned something radical. Local lighting firm Bartenbach LichtLabor conceived of putting a series of heliostats on the nearby mountainsides – rotating mirrors, which would bounce sunlight down into the town. This would have gone a long way to improving things for the 600 inhabitants, who don't see the sun from November to February.
In Manhattan, it's obviously not mountain peaks blocking the sun, but buildings. In midtown the clustered skyscrapers are to blame, and in downtown it's the myriad low rises. Architecture practice Studio Gang thinks it can solve this - and put up yet another building at the same time. Its design is for an 186,700sq ft office tower whose sculpted glazed form introduces more, not less, light onto city dwellers.
The Chicago-based firm has conceived Solar Carve Tower for the corner of 14th and 10th Avenue, that's between the Hudson River and the new and much-adored raised green space, the High Line. The technique of 'solar carving' was developed by Studio Gang and is defined as "using incident angles of the sun's rays to sculpt building form". The architects go on to say: "Solar Carve is sculpted based on geometric relationships between the building and the sun's path." Studio Gang - led by Jeanne Gang - made its mark with the 82-storey Aqua tower in their home city. So by shaving back parts of the tower's corners, 200 more hours of sunlight a year will filter down to park visitors, the firm estimates. It should be ready for occupancy in 2015.
On the surface, it appears to be a clever solution to a genuine problem, and is unlikely to fall foul of Mother Nature in the way that Frank Gehry's Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles did. When that building opened in October 2003, but as the weather warmed up the following spring, neighbours began complaining of scorching heat reflecting off the shiny metallic angles. To counter that, Gehry had around 4000 sq ft of the building's facade sandblasted to dull the glare.

Top 5 Personality Traits
1. Sense of Humor
Being able to laugh at the stresses of this world is a must, according to the women on our panel. You get bonus points if you can make them laugh. Humor tells a woman that you can laugh at—read, handle easily—the many difficulties that life throws at you.
2. Intelligence
A worldy, interesting man is a man she likes to show off. Men who are take-charge problem solvers make women feel secure, and men who are always improving are never boring.
3. Passion
Why have women always melted for musicians? Because rock stars are passionate in public. Women like displays of passion because they're not accustomed to seeing them from men. Get passionate about something: kayaking, impressionistic art, barbecuing, or Habitat for Humanity. It's proof that you care for and about something beyond yourself.
4. Confidence
A man who feels secure in his own skin makes the woman he's with feel secure. By showing you can handle unfamiliar people or situations, you tell the woman in your life that she need not fear, either.
5. Generosity
This is more important to women over 35 than it is to those under that age. Generosity, however, doesn't just mean springing for dinner at a four-star. Your willingness to give your time and lend your ear is what women crave.

How long to bake or broil whole red snapper?
I have 2 red snapper filets about 1.5 lbs each and planned to season with garlic, ginger and scallions. I would love to broil as crispy skin would be wonderful but if that's not recommended the backup plan was to bake or steam. How long would do you broil a whole fish of this size? Or bake?
So I'm confused...is it "two, 1.5# filets", or "whole fish"? Both would take to broiling very well. Just be mindful not to burn the finely minced aromatics. Either, or I'd start off by slashing the skin side as few times. As I like my fish a little on the under side 3 to 4 minutes for filets, and 5 - 8 minutes for whole fish depending on thickness. Pan searing, and oven finish is best for crispy skin.
re: letsindulge
I apologize I'm so used to filets. It's 2-1.5 lb whole fish. Great, thanks. I love steamed fish but not sure if the texture of the skin would be very appealing to eat.
re: fldhkybnva
They would also be very good cooked on a charcoal grill. That's my favorite way for whole red snapper.
From my most used kitchen reference "Timing is Everything":
General timing for whole fish or large pieces over 1 pound 8-9 minutes per inch of thickness (firm white fish).
Details for broiling large sized fish:
Preheat broiler and position rack so fish will be 4 inches from the element. Put .25 - .5 inches of wine or water in the broiler pan. Use melted butter or oil to brush fish. Broil, basting on occasion. Do not turn fish. Add seasonings just before the fish is done.
I prefer smaller sized pieces since they require less time. That allows the seasoning to be applied at the beginning and also allows the fish to be turned.
re: meatn3
Wow, thanks for the reminder. I own this book and somehow always forget. duh!
re: fldhkybnva
It's the only book I actually keep in my kitchen. I seldom cook from recipes so it is used frequently to determine temp/timing!
I did a baked, stuffed snapper a few months ago and it was delicious. I like the skin crispy so I finished it with a brief broil and it worked out nicely.
re: meatn3
Well, I just discovered the book of all places on the bedroom floor. I was probably planning some meal or perusing and just left it there. Yes, I'm quite excited as it's one of my favorite fish. A brief broil sounds like a good plan, did you undercook a little bit?
re: fldhkybnva
Iirc it came out just right at the lower end of the time tale in the book. Since I wanted crispy skin under the broiler I ended the bake earlier. Came out perfect! I stuffed with lemon slices, garlic, capers and parsley I think Left some lemon wedges in the pan to roast which intensified the flavor nicely.
Your photo below looks beautiful! I have mixed feelings when I steam fish. I love the resulting flavor and consistency of the meat but I really miss having the skin crisp up. I guess with a little foresight I could remove the skin and put it under the broiler and enjoy it as it's own course!
re: meatn3
Yea, crispy skin is definitely a big bonus of skin-on fish!
re: meatn3
Thanks for the great cookbook recommendation! I followed your instructions, with slight variations. Included stalks of celery and green onion, along with plentiful branches of dill, lemons and white wine. Added chopped green onion near the end. Timing was perfect.
The rule of thumb for fish generally, regardless of type or (usual) method of cooking, is ten minutes per inch, measured at the thickest point.
Your advice here so far is great. But let me add a point of technique: when I cook whole fish, I usually score the flesh deeply, which allows aromatics, diced chiles, lemon or lime juice, all kinds of seasoning, into the fish. It also makes it easier to inspect the doneness of the fish, because you can see inside.
Another thing: I usually give the fish a half hour or forty-five minutes on the counter with the seasoning, to bring the internal temperature up a bit and let the flavors work in.
re: Bada Bing
Thanks for the tips.
