Trade, Kevin Garnett, Thaddeus Young, Brooklyn Nets, Minnesota Timberwolves
Kevin Garnett back to Minnesota?
July 29, 2015 | 7:05 am EDT Update
Jackson still wants to sign a big man, and Carlos Boozer and Washington center Kevin Seraphin are still unsigned. The Knicks have shown tepid interest in Boozer.
Even after the undrafted Ndour agreed to terms with Dallas, the Knicks called Ndour's camp to see if there was something that still could be worked out. Ndour, however, would not break his verbal agreement with Mavericks owner Mark Cuban, according to a source.
"We need to get to the playoffs this year," point guard Elfrid Payton told Basketball Insiders earlier this month. "There's no more time for, 'Next year… Next year…' The time is now. We need to step up our games and be ready to play."
Barnes made sure to warn Jordan that things could change between them in the flicker of a cake candle now that Barnes plays for the Memphis Grizzlies. "I told him, 'Even though we're good friends, I'm still going to foul the beep out of you when we play,'" Barnes recalled Tuesday during his introductory news conference in Memphis. "That's just the kind of player I am. There's no hard feelings."
It also means a player known for altercations with fans and referees, along with opposing players and team owners, has some reputation-mending to do in his new city. He might start with a young female fan who became irritated during a playoff game between the Grizzlies and Clippers in April 2013, when Barnes kicked a garbage can on his way off the court after a bitter defeat. "It was a close game and I was mad that we lost and I kicked the can," Barnes said. "I'm looking forward to inviting that young lady back to the first game and letting her know I'm not the guy she thought I was when I kicked the can."
Festus Ezeli said he advanced quickly in school and was promoted past the fifth and sixth grades by American standards at the private Igbinedion Education Center in Benin City. He actually earned his high school diploma just months from his 15th birthday. "The common knowledge of Africa is poverty, which we do have a lot of," Ezeli said. "But the affluent and educated exist in Nigeria as well. My parents worked hard enough to send me to an international school. At the school I learned about different parts of the world. I learned to get out of a small-town mentality and to aspire to be great."
Festus Ezeli arrived to Sacramento standing 6-foot-8 with plenty of room left to grow. While school remained the focus, his uncle believed it made a lot of sense for his nephew to begin playing basketball, too. "[Ndulue] saw my height and said, 'We could do something with this,' " Festus Ezeli said. "I told him that I came to America to be a doctor. He told me, 'You can play basketball and use basketball to pay for your education.' We all thought it was a good idea, but we didn't realize how hard it would be."
Ezeli actually scored his first basket in his AAU debut in the wrong basket. He took a brief hiatus playing basketball after his frustrations, combined with his teammates' and coaches' frustrations, became too much for him. In 2005, he got cut from Sacramento's Jesuit High School basketball team. "I didn't like it at all at first," Ezeli said. "I didn't understand anything about the game."
Ezeli received 27 scholarship offers before narrowing his field to Boston College, Connecticut, Harvard and Vanderbilt. Ezeli's parents thought it would be a dream come true for their son to get a Harvard education. In hopes of getting the best combination of school and basketball though, a strong-willed Ezeli chose Vanderbilt. "I didn't think it was the best decision because I thought Harvard would give him the greatest opportunity in life," Patricia Ada Ezeli said. "Most parents would think that for their children. But when he kept insisting about basketball, school and being able to play at the highest level of the sport, we said to ourselves, 'School is always there. He can try it and if it doesn't work out he can go back to school.' "
Ezeli is scheduled to depart from South Africa back to the United States on Aug. 6. He says his trip to Africa won't be complete until he finally steps foot back in Nigeria. "Even if I can't go right now, the fact that I can go back to Africa is exciting to me," Ezeli said. "There are a lot of things I want to do in the world. With the trouble in Nigeria and things like that, I want to be able to help my country in some way. I don't know how it's going to be, but I want to help my country. But to be able to give back to the continent, this is an exciting first step."
A security detail has accompanied the group throughout their travels to Jerusalem, the Dead Sea, a restaurant near the northern border with Syria and Lebanon, the Holocaust Museum, and a basketball clinic for Israeli and Palestinian youngsters. The itinerary includes another youth clinic and a breakfast meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. "We were a little nervous about going to Jerusalem," Casspi said by phone early Tuesday morning, "but we had a great time. Thousands of people followed us when we walked around the Wall and the shops. DeMarcus was like a rock star. Everybody wanted to be around him."
This week, columnist Dave Zirin of The Nation wrote an open letter to the players who accompanied Casspi, urging them to investigate Adelson's background. Zirin further alleges that Casspi organized the delegation in response to the Boycott Divestment and Sanctions movement, a Palestinian-founded campaign designed to isolate and financially cripple Israel.
"You sit around a locker room, and you talk about your home," Casspi said. "I always tell my teammates, 'Come see my side of the world. I go to your house when we go to Washington. Come meet my parents, my brother, my sister.' It's literally as simple as that. On CNN, all you see is war. My thought is, 'Come see for yourself.' Sheldon … is a Republican; our president (Barack Obama) is a Democrat. Good, bad, whatever. It doesn't matter. We have to work on our relationship." While the NBA's involvement is limited to providing a clinician and T-shirts for the campers, league officials have long encouraged coaches and players to conduct clinics – usually in conjunction with the U.S. State Department – in war-torn countries such as Lebanon, Iran and Iraq. During the Cold War, the Atlanta Hawks toured the former Soviet Union and fostered lifelong friendships among the players, coaches and members of the respective basketball federations.
Anthony Puccio: Mikhail Prokhorov discusses "high expectations" for Bojan Bogdanovic next season. It's no secret #Nets will need his scoring.
Contacted by The Post, Hodges said Houston called him two weeks ago with the news his contract would not be renewed. "My only comment is I was thankful for the opportunity. It was their decision to make,'' Hodges said. "I feel we could've done better. We didn't get Thanasis [Antetokounmpo] to the level we should have.''
"I take everything very serious," Towns said during an appearance at the Dick's Sporting Goods' Sports Matter panel Tuesday. "For me, making sure that I had great grades at Kentucky was a very key component of my freshman year. It's going to be every year. Just wanted to make sure I could play and be the best I could be, especially in the classroom, and I'm glad I came out with a 4.0 GPA."
Well, we can go one better. The man who had the most to do with making it all possible — the player on whom the clutch "Jimmy Chitwood" character was based — doesn't have any problem with Milan being remembered by the celluloid stand-in of "Hickory." "I just think it's great," Bobby Plump, 78, told NBA.com in a phone interview Wednesday. "It's wonderful that somebody thought about honoring the movie 'Hoosiers' and the Milan story. It would never have dawned on me to do that, but I'm certainly very proud."
Cuban took to his Cyber Dust messaging app this week to congratulate Trump, referring to the Republican presidential candidate as "probably the best thing to happen to politics in a long, long time." "I don't care what his actual positions are," Cuban wrote. "I don't care if he says the wrong thing. He says what's on his mind. He gives honest answers rather than prepared answers. This is more important than anything any candidate has done in years."
Trump issued a tweet to his more than 3 million Twitter followers, thanking Cuban for the "nice words." Trump added that he was rapidly becoming a Dallas Mavericks fan. "I think people are tired of politics as usual," Cuban told ESPN Radio last week. "We're tired of everything being scripted, we're tired of every comment being politically correct. And, you know, even though Donald has to spend a lot of time pulling not just his foot but the toenails and the stuff that falls off his cuticles out of his mouth, at least it's refreshing to have somebody who is just gonna say what's on their mind and give an honest, if not insensitive, response to a question. To me, it's great." So would Cuban vote for Trump? "No, but I don't know that I'd vote for any of the other 14 candidates and I don't know that I'd vote for the Democratic candidates right now either," Cuban said.
Recently retired Kenyon Martin doesn't have any plans to return to the basketball court after a 15-year career, but the former power forward is making a comeback in the real estate world. After knocking $50,000 off the price, Martin recently put his Woodland Hills, CA, home back on the market. Built in 2006 and listed for $1.8 million, the Mediterranean-style home has four bedrooms and a separate guesthouse.
A Beijing court has dismissed a trademark case brought by US basketball superstar Michael Jordan against a company using a similar name and logo to his Nike-produced brand, a report said. The former Chicago Bull is arguably the most popular international basketball star in China and is known in the country as "Qiaodan", a Chinese version of his name.
Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer has entered a plea of not guilty in his driving under the influence case, according to his attorney. Budenholzer entered the plea in Fulton County State Court last week in writing with the court and Judge Diane E. Bessen. The court has a scheduled plea and arraignment hearing tomorrow at 9 a.m. With the filing of the plea and two motions, neither Budenholzer nor his attorney Michael Hawkins will attend. The plea and motions were filed with the court on July 22.

Speaking about the feud on his podcast The Big Podcast with Shaq, O'Neal is still irate that Pippen dared question his career. O'Neal even went as far as to put himself in a higher echelon of players that Pippen isn't a part of. From the 3:45 minute mark of O'Neal's podcast (via Reddit): "I didn't even make the picture. Some other little guy made the picture so I just took it. It was the five best Lakers and the five best Bulls and I said we'll beat them by 50. That's how I feel and I'm sticking to it. I didn't say 'Hey @ScottiePippen we will beat you guys by 50.' 'Hey @Rodman we will beat you guys by.' I just said, I'll beat you by 50.

Omergahdddddd their pupusas amazing !!!
Posted by Carlos on 05/27/2014
The cook in this place must be the dishwasher. It's a pretty place, but the service is poor. I asked for churrasco, everyone knows churrasco. The meat was flavlorless and the chimichurri sauce was cilantro and vinegar. It's not a good place to eat.
Posted by ellymay on 04/06/2013
Waiter Service has gone down,room needs to be refreshed, and we did not feel welcome. They seem to be busy with deliveries and there was only one waiter for tables and take out. Pupusas are still good but my pork chop had no taste even though it was to have garlic and the rice and chops were plopped on my plate.No presentation.
Posted by Bobbie C on 08/19/2011
Food arrived an hour and a half after we ordered. My turkey burger and fries were inedible. It was cold and the cheese was greasy and congealed. There was barley any meat in the burger at all. Worst delivery in Bushwick.
Posted by Andre on 01/12/2011
There is a language barrier, but they are very friendly, and will get someone else on the phone if needed. The Pupusas are really good (Especially pork, beans, & cheese, and jalapano & cheese). The plantains are ok. I have not tried the main dishes, but will write another review when I do. There are not a lot of choices in this immediate area, so I'm glad to have them around.
Posted by schules on 01/09/2011
Waited over an hour and a half for bland, overpriced food. Our dinner arrived, after calling multiple times and being put on hold, cold. A waste of time and money, we most definitely will not be calling again.
Posted by Tiffany on 06/10/2010
The food is amazing! The prices are great! The staff are personable and charismatic! The owners are wonderful! Such a family atmosphere but great for dates, special occassions, events, etc! It's a little piece of home in williamsburg brooklyn & sure to fit in with the up and coming neighborhood<3

Rock opera years in the making will debut at Southern Theater
The story of Paul Lyme was written, for the most part, in John Hile's basement on a quiet, bungalow-lined street in Windom, just a stone's throw away from Oak Hill Cemetery — which is appropriate since, when the story opens, Lyme is dead.
You can't miss Hile's house, not at night when the green bulb blazing above his front door lights up the street like someone left the lid up on the Xerox machine. If power failed at the airport, jet pilots could look for Hile's house, bank west and touch down without a problem.

Drunken Dunkin' Donuts!
It's a positively Homer Simpsonian concept with a Mr. Burns execution. Chef Zac Young of Flex Mussels in New York City and Top Chef: Just Desserts has been injecting doughnut holes with upscale booze. Of course, it's a hit. How could it not be? It's doughnuts and alcohol! But not everyone can afford handmade doughnuts infused with Maker's Mark and caramel. Or the trip to New York to buy them.
So why not visit your nearest Dunkin' Donuts, then pop by your local supermarket's liquor aisle and make your own?
Apple Crumb Donutini
You know the problem with apple-crumb doughnuts? Very little apple flavor, too many crumbs. Boost the apple to eXXXtreme and dam down the crumbs with Sour Apple Pucker and voilà -- Apple Crumb Donutini!
Bavarian JägerKreme
That "kreme" tends to congeal on the tongue, clammy and flavorless. What better way to honor this pastry's German roots than with an injection of Jägermeister? It's the perfect brunch for college bros everywhere!
Jell-Y Shot
Until Dunkin' Donuts devises a way to put actual Jell-O in a doughnut, injecting Everclear into this pastry is as close as we'll get to a doughnut Jell-O shot.

Alex Berezow and Stephen Meyer talk about God and Evolution on the Michael Medved Show

"I believe that demonstrating the existence of intelligent agency with the tools of science is impossible." - Alex Berezow
In a recent book review published in Christian Century, BioLogos content manager Jim Stump endeavors to reclaim the word "design."
American thinking about religion and science before the Civil War was substantially informed by the powerful "concordist" metaphor of God as the "author" of two "books," nature and Scripture, which ultimately must agree.
When non-believers in France or in Spain read what young-earth creationists are writing about evolution, geology, or astrophysics, they frequently conclude that the Bible is at best an interesting fairy tale.
The story of the Genesis Rock reminds us of how biblical and scientific accounts, despite their different purviews and purposes, remain inexorably linked in our understanding of origins.
Collection of the best articles of the past several weeks on science (and faith) from around the web.
At BioLogos, we believe that a serious and faithful reading of Scripture doesn't call for a recent origin to the earth, and we are persuaded that God has shown us through the natural world he created that his creative work began much earlier.
Some people who brook no "god of the gaps" arguments anywhere else look to these three moments as more reasonable places to insert God into natural processes: God spoke matter/energy into existence, God made life out of lifeless matter, and God breathed a soul into human beings.
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
This ongoing series written by historian Ted Davis begins with a brief synopsis of his personal background, and then goes on to reveal his passion for debunking "the now-common view that the history of science and Christianity is one of ongoing, inevitable conflict."
In our sixth BioLogos videocast, we take a look at the age of the Earth. We explain four methods scientists have used to determine that age: tree ring, lake varve, radiometric, and seafloor spread dating, and also offer some theological insight on how an old earth can fit with the first chapters of Genesis.
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
The BioLogos Forum is pleased to present this infographic about the tools scientists use to determine the age of the Earth. The graphic, titled "How Do We Know the Earth is Old?", uses data compiled and summarized by geology professor Dr. Gregg Davidson.
We've recently been looking at the evidence for an old earth and the long history and vibrancy of this view among evangelical Christians. Today's post features a preview of the updated Question, "How are the ages of the Earth and universe calculated?" revised by Senior Web Consultant and Writer Deborah Haarsma.
I ask the question, "Why is the universe so special?" Now scientists don't like things to be special; we like things to be general, and our natural anticipation would have been that the universe is just a common specimen of what a universe might be like.
Design arguments have been around forever and expressed in various ways. Most of them fall into what we call natural theology, which is the process of inferring something about the existence and nature of God by the inspection of nature.
I will take some time to clarify exactly how Michael Behe, the biochemist and Intelligent Design (ID) proponent who has most extensively developed the "irreducible complexity" argument, uses the term.
Scholar and musician Jeff Warren addresses the questions of how music is meaningful, and where that meaning resides, by looking at the popular ideas that musical meaning is entirely subjective to the listener and that the meaning of music can be universal. He also explores the recent trend of attempting to explain music via neuroscience. Finally, he looks into the reasons why music continues to play such a critical role in the worshiping life of the Church.

Essay - Public School Paradigm Paradigm Reflection of a School Administrator According...
Public School Paradigm
***** Reflection of a ***** Administrator
***** to the article, "Leadership Characteristics that Promote School Change," authored by the Southwest Educational Development Laboratory, one of ***** most currently problematic aspects ***** the paradigm of leadership offered for public school administers is ***** in all educational organizations there ***** an assumption that all leaders of educational change should be both leaders and managers.

On the Hook: The tales of 'Walter' and sons
Almost 10 years ago now, one of my articles was a saga about trying to catch an enormous, very intelligent fish whose lair was imbedded under a dock on Isles of Capri. As the story went, this nice couple from the UK tried for almost four hours to land this fish, who struck every bait, presented enormous tussles and then cut the line on the surrounding pilings. We surmised that the fish was an sizable black drum, probably in the 20-pound class.
Even after surrendering an enormous amount of tackle and effort, we never got close to landing him. The very disappointed couple named the fish "Walter" after the denizen of the deep that eluded Henry Fonda and Billy in the classic movie "On Golden Pond." They returned home fit to be tied and promised to make a return visit stateside to "look after" Walter again.
Have never heard a word from them since.
Thereafter, on backwater trips, occasionally, we would stop and work this spot but never have the pleasure of "Walter's" presence again. You would have to naturally assume his demise at the hands of some more fortunate angler that used tow rope rather than fishing line.
That was then and this is now. The wind and muddy water has been playing havoc with the fishing quality here these last couple of weeks. On one of those windswept mornings, the charter customers were two guys down here for a business convention that "arranged" some time away from the presentations, aka corporate spiel, to get on the water and land the big one.
The morning trip had not gone well to say the least. Spots that can, almost always, generate action were dead as doornails. It was fifteen minutes between action on tiny snapper. And moving around didn't really help as the dirty muddy water was running in from the Gulf.
Knew we were in trouble when one of the guys spewed "Listening to a presentation by HR would be more fun than this — should have stayed at the meeting"
We were on the move from spot to spot showing the same results as we neared the backside of Capri, I remembered "Walter" and the dock where we had the action years before. Daring not to tell the two anguished anglers what the history of the this venue was fearing disappointment, I just changed course, anchored and set up on the uptide side of the dock.
Luckily, had put two medium weight rigs sporting 17-pound test line aboard in case we ran into some snook action. We set those up and impaled some of our bigger shrimp on as bait and they had at it.
It was pretty silent as they cast the rigs and began the wait. This dock was on the edge of the incoming water flow and the water surging under the dock was not quite as "toxic" as the tidal current just 30 feet away.
Within a few minutes, both had strikes and catches, albeit it a tiny snapper and a puny juvenile sheepshead. They didn't say anything but the glare was a giveaway to their continued disappointment. They baited up and cast again.
One was tending the rod attentively, the other had placed this rod in a holder while getting a bottle of water from the cooler. That's the rod that doubled over and before the angler could retrieve, it went limp — big time break off.
"What was that?" was the simultaneous inquiry
Thats when I told them the story of "Walter" on this same dock years before. Instantaneously they were re-energized.
This time we baited up, got the baits in the water and the two of them were as attentive as attack dogs.
Five minutes later it happened again. This time both rods went off and mayhem ensued. Both rods screamed as line pealed off indicating more than one fish. That was right before the lines crossed and cut each other off.
"Bummer" was the recant from the duo but the positive part was an inquiry concerning how big these fish really were.
We rigged the rods and they baited up and were back in the water in a heartbeat. No more laments now on the poor fishing — they were focused on the present.
They had to wait a whole 10 minutes this time for the explosion. This time it was only the port rod that screamed and danced. The angler was struggling to not only stop the run but to control the direction. It was easy to tell this fish was headed back to the docks. In desperation, and against advice, he tightened down on the drag and "pop" the line parted. The fish didn't even have to make it to the docks.
Disappointed but still supercharged, the duo went at it one more time. And it happened again. This time, both rods went off again, and we had a absolute repeat of the first event of crossed lines. The joint cut off jerked both rods backwards.
With charter time about over, the duo were visibly disappointed and frustrated with the outcome. But, they wanted big fish and had been given multiple chances — a repeat performance that occurred with that nice UK couple years ago.
On the way back to the marina, one asked "What type of fish do you think they were, captain ?"
"Well, hate to say it but the runs and action were identical to what 'Walter' did years ago, and we think that was a black drum" was the response.
"Sons of 'Walter' then ?" was the final inquiry.
If you see me working a dock on the Isles of Capri anytime soon — it may be "Walter" time again.

Tropical Storm Arthur forced Royal Caribbean to cancel stops at its private island of CocoCay yesteday and today.
Majesty of the Seas will spend its day at sea instead of at CocoCay.
Enchantment of the Seas cancelled its arrival at CocoCay yesterday and stayed in Nassau overnight instead.
Grandeur of the Seas skipped its stop at CocoCay and instead took a sea day on its way back to Baltimore.
If you're going to Royal Caribbean's private island of CocoCay and intersted in renting a cabana, here's a guide to what you need to know about renting your own cabana.
Photo by grimoire42
Cabana rentals are $200 for up to six guests.
The cabanas at CocoCay are perfect for someone who is planning on spending the whole day on CocoCay and wants to have a a private beach experience.
Photo by mrsfecura
For the mats and snorkel equipment, you will be given coupons to go get the equipment from the rental location.
There is a bar in the cabana area but here are no attendants that will take your order and bring your drinks (unlike Labadee). There are restrooms near the bar for use by cabana guests.
Some people have reported getting a fruit plate and champagne, although that isn't something that's always been offered.
Photo by cjdixon4
Suite guests get first access to the cabanas but you can go to the Explorations (shore excursions) desk onboard your Royal Caribbean ship and put your name down on a list. It's best to put your name down as soon as possible for the best chance at getting a cabana.
We have had luck reserving a cabana on the spot in CocoCay after talking with the attendant who allows admission to the area, but that's subject to availability.
If you are not a suite guest, your best is to put your name on the list at the Explorations desk as early as possible and keep checking back on the status of your request.
Your private cabana area gives you a great, private area to admire the ocean but there is no beach access from the cabanas. Instead, you will need to walk out of the cabana area if you plan on going swimming.
The closest swimming area is a short walk away, perhaps a few minutes.
All cabanas on CocoCay are great but the cabanas closest to the water offer the most privacy as well as the best view.
Cabanas 1 through 7 are the ones to try for but you shouldn't be disappointed if you end up with a different cabana.

Carnival Cruise Lines has announced on select five-night sailings of its Carnival Fascination will swap out a stop at Key West for the private island of Little Stirrup Cay, which is better known to Royal Caribbean fans as Coco Cay.
The Fascination sailings that will stop at CocoCay are scheduled for 03/11/2013, 04/08/2013, 05/06/2013, 05/27/2013, 06/10/2013, 06/24/2013, 07/08/2013, 07/22/2013, 08/05/2013, 08/19/2013, 09/02/2013, 09/16/2013, 09/30/2013, 10/14/2013, 10/28/2013, 11/25/2013, 12/09/2013, 01/20/2014, 03/03/2014, 03/17/2014, 04/14/2014 & 04/28/2014.
The news of Carnival stopping at Coco Cay came via emails sent to Carnival passengers that had booked the cruise previously.
The exact details of the agreement between Carnival and Royal Caribbean are unknown at this time. Royal Caribbean has an existing agreement with the Bahamas for exclusive access to the island via its lease. Many are speculating that Carnival will pay Royal Caribbean for access to the island because Carnival's private island of Half Moon Cay is booked up already.
Royal Caribbean's private island in the Bahamas, CocoCay, was awarded the Sustainable Tourism Education Program (STEP) Gold-Level Eco-Certification for its attractions and tour operations.
The award was presented by Sustainable Travel International, a leading nonprofit that support sustainable tourism development. The certification is the top-tier program and is among the first global standards to be formally recognized by the Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC), and CocoCay is the first operation of its kind to receive the certification.
All on-island tours and island operations, including workplace practices, guest communications, and environmental management policies were assessed by a third-party independent of Sustainable Travel International and Royal Caribbean. Royal Caribbean demonstrated an ability to successfully apply its outstanding on-board sustainability initiatives to its shore excursion operations.
Royal Caribbean met certain criteria to receive the award, among them were these distinctions
Royal Caribbean Associate Vice President for Safety and Environmental Stewardship, Rich Pruitt, commented on the award, "We are very proud of our CocoCay team and the incredible work they do every day. It is through their dedication to sustainability initiatives that CocoCay has been awarded this prestigious certification that further emphasizes our commitment to environmental stewardship. By working with organizations such as Sustainable Travel International, Royal Caribbean continues to focus on providing an incredible vacation experience both onboard its ships and its private destinations like CocoCay."
In our second video blog, we preview the Eastern Caribbean itinerary aboard Royal Caribbean's Freedom of the Seas. We preview each of the three islands: CocoCay, St. Thomas & St. Maarten, including what the islands are known for and what the good excursions are. Joining me on today's episode is Kaleigh Lay from CruizeCast.

Hurricane Sandy went through Royal Caribbean's private island of CocoCay and despite some damage, the oasis for Royal Caribbean cruise passengers is open again.
Royal Caribbean spokesperson Cynthia Martinez talked about the damage the storm did to the island, "The island of Coco Cay was impacted by the storm, with damage being sustained to some of our facilities and the beach areas. Our Coco Cay team has been working diligently to prepare the island for our guests arrival."
Despite the damage, Majesty of the Seas called on CocoCay yesterday as scheduled and Monarch of the Seas is expected to also call on CocoCay today.
Bahamas Ministry Of Tourism director of cruise development, Carla Stuart, claims that Hurricane Sandy had cost Nassau alone a collective $927,000 in lost cruise spend and taxes.
Ms Stuart noted that vessel cancelations between Thursday to Saturday last week cost Nassau an estimated $742,000 in passenger spending, plus $185,000 in likely departure tax.
Royal Caribbean is starting to take a look at the damage Hurricane Sandy has done to its private island of CocoCay in the Bahamas.
"The impact to the island of CocoCay from Hurricane Sandy was not severe, but requires a significant cleanup effort ahead of guest arrival. Guests will be able to enjoy most of the island, however due to significant beach erosion in one area of the island, that area will unfortunately not be accessible to guests. The majority of our shore excursions will be available."
The good news is the Bahamas Ministry of Tourism says things are nearly back to normal in Nassau and Freeport, where minimal damage was sustained.

HOLDEN, Mass. — Members of the community are invited to come together to light the first candle on the Holden Menorah Dec. 8 and officially begin the town's celebration of Hanukkah.
The placement of the menorah at the bandstand was spearheaded seven years ago by Holden resident Jennifer Lish Lebeaux, who thought there should be some decoration for Hanukkah in town.
After she collected donations from private individuals and went before selectmen, the menorah was donated to the town and continues to be lit each year during the eight days of Hanukkah.
Furthermore, having the menorah at the bandstand allows the community to celebrate the holiday together, with residents gathering annually under the twinkling lights of the bandstand to sing traditional Hanukkah songs and reflect on the meaning of the important Jewish holiday.
Residents also are encouraged to bring non-perishable food, which will be contributed to the Interfaith Hospitality Network of Greater Worcester. The network is a coalition of 25 area congregations that provides housing and support for families with small children.
This year Hanukkah is from Dec. 8-16, and Saturday night's celebration begins at 5 p.m.
The Holden Bandstand is in front of the senior center at 1130 Main St.. For more information, contact Jennifer Lish Lebeaux at email@example.com

Scoreboard: Holy Cross 4, Hartford 3, Hartford, Conn., 10/18
Schedule: Fall schedule is complete
- The Holy Cross women's tennis team has now completed the 2011 fall season. The Crusaders finished with a 7-1 record, including a 5-1 record at the Holy Cross Tennis Courts and 2-0 when traveling. The spring schedule will be announced at a later date.

- The No. 3 doubles team of junior Jessica DeSimone (Lincoln, R.I.) and senior Emma Rudnik (Lake Bluff, Ill.) posted the best record in doubles play, going 9-2 overall. They went 7-1 in dual matches and 2-1 in tournaments. Six of their wins came as the No. 3 doubles team but they also went 1-0 at No. 2 doubles.
- Seniors Emily Marr (Jefferson, Mass.) and Carolyn Chandley (Worcester, Mass.) recorded the most wins in singles play this fall. Both went 7-1 in dual matches. Marr went 1-1 as the team's No. 2 player and 6-0 at No. 3. Chandley, who posted six straight wins in singles, went 1-0 at No. 1, 1-0 at No. 2 and 5-1 at No. 4
- Freshman Taylor Stathis (Rockaway Beach, N.Y.) proved her value to the squad in her first collegiate season, finishing with a 6-1 singles record. She went a perfect 5-0 at No. 2 singles for the squad.

I just loved this extract from recent bombcast. They were taking a question from Lucas Blane: "Would you be willing to give up half of what you now own for a pill that would permanently change you so that one hour of sleep each day would fully refresh you?"
I think the "Fully Refreshed" part is the most important factor. There are days where I sleep for a disgusting 10 hours and still don't feel fully refreshed, so I'd take the pill for that aspect alone. All of that extra spare time is just an added bonus.

I would love to have that pill... but I'd also hate to lose so much of my shit.

There's no way that I wouldn't take that pill. I'd trade everything that I didn't absolutely need (and my PC HDD) for that pill.
On the subject of not being able to sleep when you want to, like on a 14 hour plane ride or something, fine. I'll have some noise-cancelling headphones, loud music, and several games to play through on the way. Even if I don't have those things at all, the excruciating 14 hours of boredom would more than be made up for by the amount of life that frees up for me to do whatever.
And whatever would I do? Everything! I pulled an all nighter last week to finish a book and an essay and the extra time I got from that actually felt pretty good despite being very tired all day. Get that extra time every night, with no repercussions and the time to myself? Sure! How could you not want that?

I'd trade the other half of my stuff for another pill that made it so I didn't have to eat or get sick. Running at 100% for 23/24ths of the day, every day, forever, sounds pretty ballin'.

The thing is the law for rollover hours. If I go X number of full days without sleep can I then take an X hour nap to avoid dreading with a social event. And will people figure out why I chose to queue my hours, leading to angry dinner party guests, etc.

That's a tough choice. I'd be really efficient on one hand but on the other...sleep is the fucking best.
I'm tired all the time and fucking hate it. So yes, I would give up a lot to feel fully refreshed ever. Extra free time would probably suck more than it would help at the moment, but when I start working properly again it could be a dreampill.
I'm really attached to most of my stuff though, so that's gonna suck a lot. :(

Roofing scammers are on the loose in rural areas in Aiken. Beware, they give the client one price but when job is calculated they have a higher total than what was contracted. They seem to prey on seniors by telling them what a good deal they are getting. Everyone should beware.
Owl with a stick
All these blue-stain tattoos – they're everywhere and I'm getting bored with seeing them. That cute tattoo of Popeye smoking a pipe will become an owl with a stick as a person ages.
It's a Monday afternoon and there is yet another car accident at the intersection of White Pond and Whiskey roads. How many more collisions will it take to get a traffic light or at least a left-hand turn lane installed on Whiskey Road? It has proved to be a very dangerous intersection for those of us living at Cedar Creek and Three Runs Plantation, as well as other drivers.
Anyone who thinks the cost of the inauguration is high should wait until they see the cost, not only financial, of having Obama as our president for another four years.
Don't forget to tip
Can someone tell me why people go out to a restaurant and not tip anything? I am a good server who makes about $60 a day for a three-hour shift, so I know it is not my skills. But some people just don't tip. They will make you do everything for them and treat you disrespectful. What is the problem?
I would like to say thank you to the gentleman who came into the restaurant that I worked at and gave me a huge tip for Christmas. I want to say, "Thanks, Bob, you made my day."
TLC medical on Silver Bluff Road can get your prescriptions done much faster than an hour. They are also friendly and convenient, and they have two drive-throughs.
First Amendment
How would the media behave if the constitutional amendment that Obama was threatening to modify with an executive order was the firsst instead of the second?
'House Calls'
Does anyone know where I might get a copy of the "House Calls" cookbook printed in 2005 for the Aiken County Medical Association Alliance?

In association with BuildStore, we're invite people to register their interest in potential custom-build and self-build opportunities in a new community to be developed at Beeston Park, Broadland, northeast of Norwich.
Set within easy reach of the world-famous Norfolk Broads and stunning North Norfolk coastline, Beeston Park will be a new community functioning both as a resolved place in its own right – with local schools, shops and workplaces and green spaces alongside housing – and as an integrated extension to Norwich, the buzzing medieval city centre of which is less than three miles away.
Beeston Park has been conceived to set new standards for sustainable development in the UK, combining the principles that have underpinned successful settlements for centuries – including proper streets, 'walkable' centres and a mix of housing types – with contemporary sustainable design including very low carbon energy infrastructure and measures to conserve water. By the time it is complete in around 20 years time, Beeston Park will provide around 3,500 homes and 1,000 jobs, plus two new schools and a major new country park. Broadland District Council resolved to grant outline planning permission in September 2013. You can read more about the plans at www.livebeestonparkbroadland.com.
As Town Developer, Beyond Green Developments is currently looking at how best to enable the delivery of Beeston Park, which is expected to start on site in summer 2015 and start releasing building plots from the autumn. Fulfilling a promise made at outline planning, we'll bringing at least 90 plots forward over the life of the project for custom-built or self-built homes. But that's only a handful each year, and we think the real potential for custom- build and self-build is potentially much greater. Big enough, even, that it could become the pre- eminent way of building homes in this exciting new community – making for a unique place that we build together with the people who will live there, and is truly the work of many hands.
We want to gauge the real level of interest accurately so that we can plan the optimum number and type of opportunities into the earliest phase of the development, and give potential custom- builders and self-builders as much input as possible into the detailed planning to take place over the next year. So we're asking anyone who might be interested in building or commissioning their own home at Beeston Park to register and take our short survey before Friday 8th August.
We'll invite anyone who expresses an interest to an open event in Broadland this autumn to meet the team behind the Beeston Park project, visit the site, hear more about specific opportunities, and register your interest more specifically.

Nice story over at Newscientist.com about a new study by David C. Lund, Jean Lynch-Stieglitz, and William B. Curry in Nature that undercuts the "where's the little ice age?" argument against Mann's Hockey Stick graph:
In a preliminary vote, the D.C. city council unanimously decided to phase in green building standards that would apply to private as well as public development in the district. The district is poised to become the first major city in the country to require that private developers build environmentally friendly projects that incorporate energy-saving measures.By 2012, most large construction in the city -- commercial and city-funded residential -- would have to meet the standards, if the D.C. council gives final approval to a new bill next month. Under the bill, within two years, all new district-owned projects, including schools, would have to meet the green standards, and in 2009, any building receiving more than 20 percent public financing would have to do the same. By 2012, every new commercial building over 50,000 square feet -- about the size of a medium-size retail store -- would have to meet the guidelines. The rules would also apply to affordable housing.
Building Green, publisher of Environmental Buildings News and GreenSpec, just released their top 10 green building products for 2006, and Community Energy's Renewable Energy Credits made the list. Although not directly related to the "kerfuffle" about the Whole Foods/Renewable Choice Card, this is important to the REC debate for a couple of reasons. EBN is one of the most respected sources of information on green building, and they feel RECs are worthwhile. To me this is a huge vote of confidence in RECs as part of overall environmental sustainability efforts. RECs are not strictly a building product, but a service choice, yet purchasing RECs can make a huge dent in a building's lifecycle impact. Typically, RECs receive relatively little attention, because they are not as sexy as other options such as solar panels or salvaged-timber bathroom partitions. Adding RECs to a list of important green products broadens people's perspectives on what green building can be. For example, this highlights that you don't have to build a new building or undergo a major renovation to green your buildings, but you can start right away with RECs.
The Pew Center published a report today on business strategies for dealing with climate change [PDF]. The report was authored principally by University of Michigan Professor (and recent Grist contributor) Andrew Hoffman. I've only had a chance to glance at the report, but it looks like good stuff (here's an article about it).
The New York Times (and everyone else) reports that California has reached a deal for a cap and trade program on carbon emissions.
We've heard scads about Wal-Mart turning over a big, fat green leaf (here and here and here and probably lots of other places, too). Well, here's another one reported by Fast Company that really left my jaw hanging open: In the next 12 months, starting with a major push this month, Wal-Mart wants to sell every one of its regular customers -- 100 million in all -- one swirl bulb. In the process, Wal-Mart wants to change energy consumption in the United States, and energy consciousness, too.
I've just been reading those Scientific American articles on energy and climate change. After rereading the stabilization wedges article (PDF) I began to think, "How likely is it that any particular wedges will take off?" This got me thinking about green building (almost everything does these days) and how much has happened to the building industry in recent years.
The city of Austin, already host to the granddaddy of all green building programs, is stepping it up further: They are looking into "adopting a series of code changes that will make all new single-family homes built in the City's building code jurisdiction 'Zero-Energy Capable Homes' by the year 2015." Go Austin!
The NYT reports today that Colorado ski resort giant Vail Resorts is investing heavily in wind, "buying enough credits to offset all the power needed for its resorts, retail stores and office buildings." Vail Resort's purchase makes them the second largest purchaser of wind credit after Whole Foods. The article states that Vail Resorts accounts for "10% of all skier visits in the nation last year." This makes their commitment a pretty significant splash on the ski scene.

South Carolina welcomed three of its newest players today with the enrollment of Ronnie Martin, Connor Mitch and DJ Park for the start of the spring semester at South Carolina.
All three players were 2013 recruiting class commitments, with Park and Mitch graduating from high school early and Martin enrolling after spending time in junior college.
Mitch is the heralded addition of the three as he is expected to be the next heir to the Gamecocks' quarterback throne. Mitch ranks second in four career categories in North Carolina high school history, passing for 12,078 yards, with 1,384 attempts, 807 completions and 153 touchdowns. He threw for 63 touchdowns in his senior season, including setting the state record with nine touchdowns in a single game.
Mitch is a four-star prospect among most recruiting services and chose South Carolina over LSU, Alabama, Auburn and North Carolina.
D.J. Park is expected to add some beef to the Gamecocks' offensive line in the future. Park was the starting left tackle for Dillon during their AA State title run. Park recently competed in the Semper Fidelis All-American Bowl in California.
Park selected the Gamecocks over Auburn, Clemson, Florida and LSU. He's considered a four-star prospect on most recruiting services.
Ronnie Martin joins the Gamecocks program after signing with South Carolina in 2011. He failed to qualify out of high school and enrolled at Georgia Military College. Martin saw limited action at GMC this season due to injury but did log three interceptions in three games. Martin is also expected to contribute to the Gamecocks' special teams on top of playing the cornerback position for South Carolina.
Martin is a three-star prospect on most recruiting services and considered one of the top cornerbacks coming out of junior college.
All three players are eligible to participate in spring practice and will likely have a leg up on some of the other competition that will enroll this summer.
Welcome to the Gamecock Family!

The Bachelor
What Did Sean Lowe Think of Ashley P's 50 Shades of Gray Intro?
Sean Lowe is seeing a lot of tonight's episode of The Bachelor for the first time, even though he was there. And that's particularly true of the introduction videos for some of the more ladies from his group of suitorettes. So, what did he have to say after seeing Ashley Palenkas's 50 Shades of Gray intro?
"Haha! Ashley's intro video was hilarious!" Sean tweeted. As for his impression about their meeting on that first night, Sean said, "I felt like running at first."
Sean also said it felt "weird" watching a girl on TV say she wants him to take off her clothes and spank her. We imagine it was! It was pretty weird for us viewers, too.

We have mixed feelings right now after learning that "The Hills" was renewed for a sixth season. On the one hand, it's a train wreck we love to hate. On the other, it's still a train wreck and that makes us sad. (Choo…choo…cry.) The fate of the show wasn't entirely clear after the season five finale – ratings dropped after Lauren Conrad left and things seemed to be running their course. Turns out, people are just as interested in watching Kristin Cavallari's various faces of evil as they were in watching LC's mustache evolve!
One change to the new season will be a lack of our sweet Audrina Patridge, who is leaving the show to start her own solo reality project. Patridge told OK! "I'm very excited. Basically it's going to be me outside of "The Hills" bubble. All the photos that my fans see and what they always wonder, like that's what the cameras are going to come with me and see." Um, isn't the answer to that "sidewalk cafes, the gym and HWood?" No? Guess we'll have to watch and find out. [Photo: GettyImages]

Super stylish shoes and really comfortable as well - the tube shaped sole is very spongy! I would actually give 4 1/2 stars if I could, the only complaint is I feel like my feet sweat a little bit more than usual when wearing this pair of shoes. And other thing to note is the shoes run slightly big. ... read more
these shoes are awesome. the most comfortable pair i own. Not only do they work great for the gym, but also for general everyday use. they match wit all types o clothes. it fits true to size i am normally a 3 in kids and thought it might be too small so i ordered a 4 which is big but so comfortable that i ended up keeping it and wearing it everyday. will totally re-buy these. hopefully adidas can also add some of the new tubulars to the kids collection. the new collection look awesome!!!! ... read more
