I got word this week that Focus on the Family will be ceasing publication of their teen magazines Brio, Brio and Beyond, and Breakaway. The last issues will be February 09.
A friend who works at one of the magazines told me that the Focus on the Family board approved a massive budget cut and the magazines were the victims. Focus is hoping that another ministry will pick up the magazines and keep them alive, either in print or online. But it'll probably be too late for employees, who are done in January.
I'm not surprised to hear they're folding. CCM Magazine ceased print publication earlier this year, and with the rising costs of printing and mailing, coupled with falling ad revenue and more online users, many print publications, from magazines to newspapers, are feeling the crunch. What is a shame is that Brio, Brio and Beyond, and Breakaway offered teens a high quality magazine with content relevent to a young Christian life. I don't know where they're going to find pop culture news, life stories and advice, and info about Christian music artists now. Tiger Beat? BOP? POPStar? TMZ.com?
From the comments I get when I post anything about the Jonas Brothers, I think they're already burning up those mags anyway.
UPDATE: Brio creator and editor Susie Shellenberger launches new magazine for girls.

Pickens County votes count
PICKENS COUNTY - Voting in Central saw incumbent mayor Mac Martin handily win re-election defeating councilman David Donald.
In addition, three new council persons were elected to at-large seats in Tuesday's election.
The unofficial vote count Tuesday had Martin with 163 votes and Donald with 98 votes, including absentee ballots.
Vowing to continue the policies he believes will bring economic growth to the town, Martin said he thought that his victory indicated the people of Central had grown weary of the extreme political views voiced by several of the candidates.
"I look forward to working with the new council members to take the town of Central to the next level," Martin said. "By working together we can position the town to reap the benefits of continued economic growth."
Seven candidates were running for three at-large town council seats. The breakdown of the balloting is as follows:
- Benji Cumbie 187
- Paige H Bowers 139
- Ken Dill 129
- Tracey Reynolds 89
- Joe N Moss 82
- J Wallace Palmer 64
- Jerry Turner 22
The winners of the three open council seats are Bowers, Cumbie and Dill. Incumbent Tracey Reynolds was not returned to office. The newly-elected council members will take office in January, according to Phillip Mishoe, town administrator.
Bowers, 41, said she will bring her experience in management to the town. She wants new businesses to locate in Central and hopes to find creative ways to finance needed infrastructure improvements.
Cumbie, 33, plans to work on infrastructure and improving the appearance of buildings in Central, saying he has the energy and time to complete the task.
Dill, 50, who is a chaplain at Southern Wesleyan University in Central, plans to work to implement a vision for the future of the town. He said he is a "consensus builder" and can help to solve difficult problems.
In Pickens County, four other cities held elections, including Easley, Liberty, Six Mile and city of Pickens. All results are unofficial.
Easley incumbent returns to commission
In Easley, the only race was the Easley Combined Utilities Commission chairman. Incumbent Dick Gettys received 468 votes, while Dick Leopard received 255 votes.
Liberty mayor re-elected
In Liberty, Brian Deese faced Eddie Hughes in the mayoral election. Deese, the incumbent, was re-elected, 274 votes to 111 for Hughes.
In the lone Liberty council race, Dwight Yates won with 234 votes to Ellen Berry Sells' 115 votes.
Pickens voters pick new council members
In the city of Pickens, voters picked from five candidates to fill three at-large seats on the city council. Preston Bruce, Jason Cassell (I), Joe Durham (I), Carlton Holley Jr., and Patrick Lark were running.
One incumbent was re-elected: Holley received 199 votes, Lark 193, Cassell, the incumbent, 154, and Bruce and Durham, an incumbent, had 108 votes each.
Six Mile newcomers frontrunners
In Six Mile, political newcomers Brenda Rippy, Aaron Smith and Roy Stoddard vied for two seats. Stoddard received 102 votes, Smith 50, and Rippy 40.
A spokeswoman at the Pickens County Registration and Elections Commission said whether runoffs are needed will not be determined until all the absentee votes are counted, and those would not be available until Thursday.
Runoffs will be Nov. 17, if required.

The secret of attracting the opposite sex and deriving a positive response from those you are attracted to have always remained a mystery. However, the discovery of the scientists, about the magical hormone called pheromone, which if present in high amounts have proven to attract women have aroused curiosity among men about increasing this component in their body. The solution to this most sought-after quest is the Nexus Pheromones UK. This product is the result of year's long extensive research, and the effectiveness of the product proves the extensive research quite well.
What is Nexus Pheromones UK: Pheromones or the hormones responsible for generating attraction between the opposite sex work using the sense of smell of the individuals. It works by stimulating the brains and alerts the body when someone seems attractive. This is more like the human's mating call to the partner, and therefore, it is necessary to send positive smell stimuli to the prospective partners. The Nexus Pheromone is a product designed exclusively to increase this attractiveness quotient of the individuals instantly.
How does it work?: The product is made up of several ingredients and chemical substances, that mimic the effect of the testosterone in the body like the Androstenone, Alpha-Androstenol, Androsterone, Epiandrosterone, Beta-Androstenol, Androstedienone and Androstanone, etc., which symbolize the healthy male body and thereby attract a positive sexual response from the women. The presence of the pheromone has proved a strong determinant of the sexual attraction of women over the looks and personality of men.
The Nexus Pheromones UK, therefore, produces hormones similar to those produced in the arm pits, navel and genital regions, which are captured by the brain of the women through their nose. The Nexus Pheromone sends signals of similar smells to the nose, which makes the women brain process these men as being sexually attractive and fertile.
The product has worked like the fairy godmother to many men and has helped them attract their dream women and have a great and active romantic life. The product, which is manufactured in FDA, approved environment makes it safe to be used on the body without any fear of possible side effects. The product has been reviewed and rated as being the best of its kind by numerous journals and user reviews in several articles. It has also been portrayed as a product that is sure to produce positive results by several large media outlets, like, the BBC, CBS, the CNN, etc., which is an obvious determinant of the fact that the product would work for sure.
CLICK HERE To Visit the Official Nexus Pheromones Website!
A product that is worth the price: This magical product is priced at a nominal charge of $30. The product is available for anyone to use. The lack of side effects and the long-lasting impact of the scent, which goes on up to 8 hours, ensure that just one application a day is sufficient to last for the whole day. The Nexus Pheromones UK can be ordered online from anywhere across the globe and is available for the users without a prescription.
Why use Nexus Pheromones UK?: It is necessary to use the Nexus Pheromones as the natural scents produced by the body are often washed away or are dominated by the smell of perfumes and soaps that individuals use. Therefore, it can be said that the Nexus Pheromone UK is a replacement or a supplement to the natural pheromone produced in the body.
Pros and cons: The positive Nexuspheromones reviews that the product has been receiving from numerous experts and media houses are evident in its ability to provide successful results. The Nexus Pheromones UK is highly efficient in attracting women around for over 8 hours when sprayed 1-3 times.
However, the negative aspect of Nexus Pheromones UK could be that too many women could be attracted to the user, which could as well include several unwanted women, while in a gathering. Therefore, the product, although meant for everybody and being safe to use it is ideally suitable to advice the user to be wary of being the most sought-after man by all the women. However, this factor in itself has been a trigger for many men to order the product, which is available online without the need for any prescription.
Thank you for visiting, I hope you found the information about Nexus Pheromones UK helpful, please share with your friends, follow me and leave your comment below.


text: Here is another great piece to come from Soph with this light ounce denim damaged shawl collar coverall. Recently we have seen some very interesting interpretations of the coverall, but perhaps none more so defined as this piece from a label renowned for refining classic items. The combination of the shawl collar and damaged denim is one of great interest as I am sure it would not be easy to pull of but once you can it will be hard to take off.

Six weeks in, the Dallas Cowboys already are in crisis mode. As a result, Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss won't go over well back home.
The Cardinals?
"You're talking about a Cardinals team that's not the Cardinals of old," said Cowboys guard and former Cardinals player Leonard Davis. "People don't understand that. You can't take them lightly."
Was that the case at University of Phoenix Stadium?
"I don't know," Davis said. "I know people (including teammates) asked me about them, and I said the same thing: 'They're not the same Cardinals.' "
The bigger question might be reversed: Who exactly are these Cowboys? All seemed fine in early September, with wins coming against Cleveland, Philadelphia and Green Bay. But then came a slip-up at home against Washington, followed by an uninspired win against the Bengals.
All of a sudden, coach Wade Phillips wasn't tough enough, star receiver Terrell Owens wanted more touches and league bad boy Adam Jones scuffled in an upscale hotel, drawing headlines across the nation.
Naturally, when Dallas started slow in the desert, many in the press box concluded that the Cowboys were distracted, haunted by a week of controversy. After the game, it turned into a main storyline in the visitors' locker room, even though nearly every player shot it down.
"No," quarterback Tony Romo said. "The biggest misconception out there is that stuff like that affects the locker room. You can ask the Cowboys of the early '90s. They dealt with this stuff all the time."
Dallas, which owns one of the league's better offenses, sputtered early. Romo threw for 321 yards and three touchdowns, but he fumbled three times, losing one. Owens caught four passes. Jason Witten got more attention for false-start penalties until he hauled in a 30-yard pass that led to Nick Folk's 52-yard field goal that forced overtime.
What exactly happened to that high-octane offense? Davis shook his head.
"Ya got me on that one," he said.
In his postgame news conference, the laid-back Phillips bemoaned Dallas' special teams - which gave up a kickoff return for a touchdown and the game-sealing blocked punt. They had just doubled their efforts in that area last week, Phillips said, but Sunday's mistakes helped eliminate what "could've been a miracle finish."
Through it all, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones tried to add perspective. Standing in the middle of the locker room, Jones gave the Cardinals credit. He said anyone who doesn't understand Sunday's setback doesn't "understand reality" in the NFL.
"I didn't think we'd be sitting here 6-0," Jones said. "I really wouldn't have thought that - at all - back in training camp, not in our division, not coming out here with a much-improved Cardinals team. We said this in training camp: '(The media) would be about setting expectations. We'd just get out here and see what we do.' "

She's Gone
What it's actually about: This song is about the first time that Hall's niece used the potty on her own. Unfortunately, the label thought that was a ridiculous premise for a song, so they lied and claimed it was about some girl leaving, or something dumb like that.
I Can't Go For That (No Can Do)
What it's actually about: While the lyrics vaguely suggest something far more sexual and taboo between two lovers, Hall admitted that it's actually about leasing a sports car. "It's just not financially wise," he told American Songwriter, "I mean, who on Earth throws away money like that?"
Out of Touch
What it's actually about: One of the duo's biggest pop hits of the 80s, "Out of Touch" was written about a girl that Oates dated in 1983. She lost both of her hands in a fireworks accident and then stole his watch, hence "You're out of touch, I'm out of time." Shortly after, Hall would become the primary lyricist for the remainder of their relationship.
Sara Smile
What it's actually about: Hall's longtime girlfriend Sara Evans was more than just a muse, as she also helped the duo with ideas for their songs. For example, she is credited with fixing the chorus to "Maneater" when Hall was first writing it. Naturally, because of her importance to Hall & Oates, "Sara Smile" is attributed to Allen, but it was originally intended to be a jingle for an orthodontist that Oates knew from high school.
Private Eyes
What it's actually about: Hall had an idea for a cartoon about an Army sergeant that was a giant nose, and two other soldiers that were ears, and a bumbling private that was just a pair of eyes, named Private Eyes. This was the theme song that he wrote before he was laughed out of the CBS studios and banned from the lot.
*Hall & Oates have not denied any of these stories, so we should go ahead and assume they are true. And yes, this is the dumbest thing I've ever written, but Hall & Oates 4 life, suckers.

Hemmings Find of the Day – 1964 Datsun B1200
As rare as it is to come across one of these early Japanese compact pickups here in the States, it's about impossible to find one that isn't rusted to the door handles or extensively customized. This 1964 Datsun B1200 for sale on Hemmings.com might need some work here and there, but it should make a fine basis for a restoration and could even serve as a fuel-thrifty knockabout. From the seller's description:
This is a real beauty. It is a 1964 Model 320 1200 pickup. It has 50 some thousand miles on the original engine. It was purchased by my mother from the original owners in 1992 who had bought it new in Tempe AZ & had used it as a tow vehicle behind a RV for their trips to Fl. It was then passed to my brother in Iowa that was going to restore it. After a couple years of it setting in his garage he passed it to me. I had some restoration done in 96 & it has set in my garage.since then. It has had a complete exterior paint job, all chrome has been rechromed, seat & door panels have been redone. It does need some things done to finish.Visors need redone, needs weatherstrip around doors & windows replaced, a headliner,steering wheel & column need done & a radio. Maybe a couple other small things. It does have some rust on the floor pans, but none is thru. It will run,but will need some tinkering first.(Mainly to keep bad gas from entering carb.) I love the little truck ,but its time for it to be loved by someone else now.

indians -1.5
indians -1.5
Houston vs. Cleveland, 09/19/2013 19:05 EDT, Score: 1 - 2
Point Spread: -1½/-107 Cleveland
Sportsbook: Pinnacle
Result: Loss
*5 Star MLB TOP Play of Day* The Houston Astros are coming off a disappointing 6-5 loss in the 13th inning against the Cincinnati Reds. The Astros fought hard all game, but missed lots of opportunities. That game didn't end until about 1:30 AM EST. The Astros then headed to Cleveland for this series, so they definitely had a late night. Cleveland is coming off losing 2 of 3 at KC. The Indians are very much in the thick of the AL Wildcard race, but they have to take advantage of games against teams like the Houston Astros. Ubaldo Jimenez starts here for the Indians, and he has a 0.42 ERA in his last 3 starts. Here's a shocking tidbit for you, Jimenez has a better ERA since the break than Clayton Kershaw. Dallas Keuchel starts for the Astros, and Cleveland has rocked lefties all year long. Houston is 1-10 in their last 11 when Keuchel is starting on 5 days of rest. They are 0-4 in his last 4 starts against a team with a winning record. The Indians are 7-1 in their last 8 home games against a lefty. Take the Indians -1.5 big.

West Palm Beach, Florida - Tiger Woods is apparently jumping back into the dating scene. His new girlfriend is Alyse Lahti Johnston, a 22-year old college student and budding golfer in West Palm Beach.
Johnston's step-father, Alistair Johnston is a high-ranking executive at IMG, the sports agency that represents Woods. According to RadarOnline, Johnston's biological father is former St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Jeff Lahti.

Johnston was arrested in Orlando in October 2010 on DUI charges. She pleaded no contest and ended up with a lesser charge of Improper Change of Lane.
RadarOnline says Johnston is training for the LGPA Tour.
Woods' 5-year marriage to model Elin Nordegren ended last year after numerous women claimed to having affairs with Woods.
Nordegren recently purchased a $12.2 million waterfront mansion in North Palm Beach.

When a purchaser acquires substantially all the assets of a seller, the purchase agreement typically provides that the purchaser does not assume seller's liabilities except to the limited extent specifically set forth therein. Nevertheless, a disclaimer of liability is not effective in all situations. State statutes typically impose liability on successors for sales taxes and certain similar obligations, and for that reason purchasers usually protect themselves, such as by escrowing a portion of the sale proceeds until full payment of such taxes and obligations is verified. Additionally, federal courts have judicially imposed successor liability based on violations of the Labor Management Relations Act (John Wiley & Sons, Inc. v. Livingston, 376 543 (1964)), the National Labor Relations Act (Golden State Bottling Co. v. NLRB, 414 U.S. 168 (1973)), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Wheeler v.

The other day I realised that despite the fact I read a good amount of food blogs, I hardly have the time to leave comments to encourage those fantastic bloggers who spend a lot of time and effort creating interesting content for very little reward. But recently I thought, hey, why don't I actually tell people about the guys I follow, and maybe that would make up for all the comments I should have left but never did. So here's the first instalment of cool food blogs I think you should follow (and there are many I want to share). I think I'll name this series "blogger karma". If you like what you see, let these guys know. Bloggers live for comments and a little bit of encouragement goes a long way.
Amanda Bechara is one awesome girl, and her obsession with food could only mean one thing: she's Lebanese. Well, she's also quite Australian, but her genetics hark back strongly to the Levant, and that really does show in her writing. Amanda's restaurant reviews are more delicious than the food she discusses; her blog entries as enjoyable as a good degustation and just as lengthy. We are now good friends, but my first encounter with this troublesome lass was a through her blog, where she wrote a ditty to a kebab that she came across at the Sydney International Terminal food court, of all places. Both being fiery Middle-Easterners, we battled things out in poetry in the comments, and the rest became history. Check out her hilarious post and the comments that ensued here.
Brian is a journalist living in Gibraltar, one of the world's unique locations, at the southern tip of Europe as it comes closest to Africa, smack between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic. To escape the daily grind, Brian blogs about food, but not about any boring old food. Read about his experience with toro de lidia, meat from the bulls that die at the hands of Algeciras' matadors, or join him on a trip to Marrakesh to experience how it's like wandering the bustling streets at night. He has made Gibraltar a high priority on my travel itinerary.
This is a very recent addition to my reading list. I found out about the fabulous Stephanie Wood through a common mention in the Foodies' Guide to Sydney (see previous post). I was as happy about the mention as I was to discover Elegant Sufficiency. Stephanie's blog is magnetic, charismatic and charming. I know, it sounds like I'm describing my self here, right? Well here's the deal. Stephanie is a professional journalist and an editor for The Sydney Magazine, but her blog is a personal space, and really, this is what all blogs should be like: confidently clever, extremely humorous, captivating, thought provoking and informative. The man in me hates to admit it, but in reality, I cried when I read her tribute to her late father.
re Brian's blog, I love it too! don't know the others, so I am eager to find out!
tasteofbeirut´s last [type] ..Red Lentils with quince and caramelized onions
I love Amanda's blog! I always have to get something to nibble on while reading her blog because everything she writes about sounds so freaking tasty
Love Amanda's blog and glad to see she's started blogging again after a break!
Reemski´s last [type] ..Bits & Bobs
Amanda kicks ass. Her writing is genius. To be honest, I care more about what she's writing than about the actual restaurant she reviews. I just wish she blogged everyday. I've already said it on her blog once, but somebody please give her a review job or at least a freaking column!
cant believe bribing you works! just kidding, lots of karma to your and little girl x
This is a neat idea Fouad, a great way to be introduced to some interesting blogs.
Viviane´s last [type] ..Peach Compote Triathlon
Hey Fouad, thanks so much for your kind words, and for the plug! I've been off the radar for a while but I'm back at the wheel again. Thanks for the vote of confidence, it means a lot.
Greetings from Gib,

by Marilyn Odneal, Horticulture Adviser
(Mountain Grove) – You remember that I was recently puzzled over a pomegranate growing in Mountain Grove. Well, I was in our State Fruit Experiment Station Horticulture Garden the other day and saw what I thought was an artichoke growing in one of the raised beds! I asked Susanne Howard, our horticulturist who manages the garden, when we should harvest the artichokes. She informed me that it wasn't an artichoke at all, but a cardoon. I needed to investigate after coming into contact with this confounding cardoon.
Cardoon, or Cynara cardunculus, is a thistle-like perennial plant that is similar to the globe artichoke, Cynara scolymus, although it is larger than its relative. Mature cardoons can grow up to 3-5 feet tall and 6 feet wide. It is winter hardy to USDA Hardiness Zone 7, although some sources report Zone 6 in which Mountain Grove is located. Cardoon is native to Southern Europe where it was used as a vegetable. It found its way to America in the early 1790s.
This southwest Mediterranean plant produces large flowerheads that can be cut and dried for arrangements. It is a statuesque element in the garden with its silvery-gray serrated foliage, bold texture, and striking purple midsummer blooming flowers. Leaf stalks and midribs are eaten when blanched. Unopened flower heads can also be eaten like artichokes.
The leaf stalks need to be blanched before harvesting. This is reportedly done by tying each plant into a bundle, wrapping the bundles with straw, and mounding the soil around the plant for about one month (source: University of Tennessee Plant of the Month by Terumi Watson – http://utgardens.tennessee.edu/pom/cardoon.html ). Where cardoons are ordinarily grown, they are usually harvested during winter months. In areas with mild winters, you can harvest cardoons from November to February.
Admittedly, I am not sure what exactly we are going to do with our cardoon, but time will tell. Since it is not reliably winter hardy, but made it through last winter, we shall see if it will indeed withstand our winters. If the harvesting and preparation of cardoon seems a bit daunting, as it does to me, focus on its striking bold texture and eye catching beauty for a cottage garden. You will certainly have a conversation piece in your border.

Now that Ruby Charlene Williams is out of the picture, the second highest bidder at the Oct. 10 public auction has expressed interest in buying the former Fort Drum Vehicle Storage warehouse on West Main Street.
Donald M. Hunt, a professional diver and certified scuba instructor who owns Hunt Underwater Specialties of Watertown, approached Mayor Jeffrey E. Graham on Monday about his interest in the building at 753 Rear W. Main St. after hearing that Ms. Williams has gone missing and would not proceed with her plans to buy it.
The Watertown City Council will most likely put the warehouse up for sale during a second public auction, which could be held as early as January, Mr. Graham said. Council members may set a date for the auction at Monday nights meeting.
But Mr. Hunt hopes he can get the building for less than the $125,000 bid that Ms. Williams submitted on Oct. 10.
She and Mr. Hunt went back and forth on a series of bids until he dropped out at $120,000.
Id like to get a better price, he said, adding that a third bidder stopped at $60,000. The building is assessed at $205,700.
He plans to use the building for storage for his diving equipment and for some other things I have in mind, he said, declining to elaborate.
Ms. Williams, the chief financial officer for Fort Drum Vehicle Storage, became interested in the warehouse after her bosses, JoAnne Sanchez-Norquist and John S. Norquist, lost the building for failing to pay $17,776.37 in back taxes.
But then Ms. Williams failed to arrive for the closing at 5 p.m. Tuesday. Council members agreed to extend the original Nov. 16 closing when she did not show up that day.
City officials are perplexed that she put down the $12,500 deposit for the warehouse, which she has now lost.
In recent days, council members figured the deal with Ms. Williams was going to fall through after hearing that she was evicted from her rental property at 223 LeRay St., Black River.
On Nov. 19, town Justice George E. Mead III signed an eviction notice for Ms. Williams and her husband, Michael, after they accumulated $6,900 in unpaid rent from September through the end of this month. They were ordered to pay the $6,900 in back rent and $1,598.96 in attorney and court fees to landlords Jesse and Tara Lennox, according to court documents.
Council members also learned Ms. Williams is a fugitive from justice in the state of Florida for a 2006 probation violation involving convictions for third-degree grand theft and distributing a forged instrument the year before. She pleaded no contest to those charges and received a sentence of 18 months of probation, according to St. Johns County court documents.
Fort Drum Vehicle Storage was formed in 2005 to serve deploying soldiers in need of a place to store their vehicles. The warehouse previously housed about 90 vehicles for the company until it was lost to back taxes.
The company is also in financial turmoil, facing $92,443 in back taxes on five properties it owns in the county and a $28,000 loan owed to the Watertown Local Development Corp.

Apr 10 2014
REMARKS BY SENATOR JOHN McCAIN ON MASS ATROCITIES IN SYRIA AS WORLD COMMEMORATES ANNIVERSARY OF RWANDAN GENOCIDE
Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ) today delivered the following remarks on the floor of the U.S. Senate regarding the mass atrocities in Syria, as the world commemorates the 20th anniversary of the Rwandan genocide this week:
"Mr. President, as we commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Rwandan genocide this week, I rise today to remind my colleagues and fellow citizens of the humanity we share and appeal to their conscience about the mass atrocities that the Assad regime is perpetrating in Syria. This past Sunday, the world joined Rwanda in marking twenty years since the beginning of the genocide that claimed the lives of more than 800,000 innocent men, women, and children. As we reflect on our failures to stop the genocide there, I cannot help but think of the lessons we learned from Rwanda and of those we didn't.
"As President Obama stated in his remarks on Sunday, 'The Rwandan genocide was neither an accident nor unavoidable… The genocide we remember today, and the world's failure to respond more quickly, reminds us that we always have a choice. In the face of hatred, we must remember the humanity we share. In the face of cruelty, we must choose compassion. In the face of intolerance and suffering, we must never be indifferent.' I could not agree more with the President. The United States, along with the international community, failed to take the necessary action to prevent a tragedy in Rwanda. We chose to ignore the death of hundreds of thousands of people, and in so doing we forsook our humanity. And now, we are dangerously close to doing the same in Syria.
"While I would like to believe that 'never again' means something in this context, I look around the world today and I'm haunted by the fact that we simply haven't learned the fundamental lesson from Rwanda – that preventing the slaughter of innocents means taking hard political action.
"Nowhere is this truer than in Syria where President Bashar al-Assad's regime continues its brutal assault against the Syrian people with increasing ferocity. The slaughter of innocent men, women, and children is being carried out by Syria's national army and loyal paramilitaries as a matter of state policy, and the terror continues to escalate every day that Assad's crimes go unpunished. The regime has accelerated its attacks against civilians by indiscriminately dropping barbaric barrel bombs on mosques, schools, and bakeries, systematically detaining, torturing and killing thousands of people including hundreds of children, and starving entire neighborhoods to death.
"It was over five months ago that Secretary John Kerry wrote that 'the world must act quickly' to stop 'a war of starvation' being waged by Assad's regime against huge portions of the populations. Yet, the world did nothing and hundreds have died of starvation in those five months.
"Eventually, the international community responded by passing Resolution 2139 through the UN Security Council, which ordered the regime to promptly allow unhindered humanitarian access and threatened further consequences for noncompliance. This was two months ago, and yet again, the world did nothing to back the resolution. In fact, UN humanitarian coordinator Valerie Amos reports that the war of starvation has worsened since its passing. The number of Syrians cut off from aid has grown since January by over 1 million people. The Syrian government continues to prevent supplies of food from entering opposition held areas in direct contravention of the U.N. resolution. And it is using U.S.-provided humanitarian aid as leverage in its war against the people. Meanwhile, Iran sends 30,000 tons of food supplies to Assad's regime. While children starve throughout Syria, the government is at least well-fed.
"Although 800,000 people have not been slaughtered in mere months as was the case in Rwanda, over the course of three years of conflict in Syria we have witnessed 9 million people forced from their homes with 2.5 million refugees escaping the violence in neighboring countries and an estimated 150,000 people dead with casualties escalating daily. Regardless of the scale or scope, one fact is clear: the world is watching genocide in slow motion. But it seems that regardless of how many innocent men, women and children die in Syria, the world's conscience will not be tipped.
"What is happening in Syria should be an affront to our conscience, and it should be a call to action. Each day, the media floods our newspapers and television screens with gruesome and horrific evidence of Assad's war crimes. We cannot claim ignorance as we have in the past, and yet, we do nothing. It is as if watching all the suffering and simply feeling bad about it has become an adequate moral response.
"Conventional wisdom tells us that this is because the American public is war-weary. We are scarred by our experiences in Afghanistan and Iraq and thus unwilling to get involved in another conflict in the Middle East. This sentiment is reinforced by the President, who prides himself on having opposed the war in Iraq and getting America out of the region as quickly as possible – regardless of the ramifications. He has emphasized the need to 'contain' the conflict in Syria, calling it a 'civil war' and neglecting the dangerous spillover effects we are already witnessing including the destabilization of all of Syria's neighbors and the growth of an al-Qaeda safe haven in eastern Syria and western Iraq. Following the President's lead, the American public has largely applauded his restraint and opposed greater U.S. involvement in Syria.
"But in so doing, we have again failed the legacy of Rwanda. Stopping the slaughter in Syria will require difficult political action, but it is not only profoundly in our national interests to act but also our moral obligation to do so. In his remarks on Sunday, President Obama said that we should be reminded of 'our obligations to our fellow man,' and as President he is the one who should be showing to the American people why it so vital to our national interests to carry out our moral obligations to our fellow man. Our policies should be determined by the realities of the moment, not by today's isolationism dictated by the past. The war in Afghanistan and Iraq has nothing to do with how we carry out our responsibilities today, and let there be no mistake, we have a responsibility to stop genocide when we see it happening as in Syria. 'Never again' should mean something, whether or not we are paralyzed by war-weariness.
"Of course, we would all like to see the slaughter of Syria's innocent men, women, and children be stopped by diplomacy and through non-violent means. We all want an end to the violence and we all want to believe that a political solution is possible. But there are only two ways to end the violence. One is for all parties to put down their weapons, something that President Assad and his Iranian partners are clearly unwilling to do as they believe a military solution is possible. So that leaves us with the only other option, to neutralize the party dedicated to the slaughter of innocents and force it to put down their guns.
"There are options to achieve this that fall short of putting boots on the ground. We do not need to concede and allow genocide to continue or go to war to prevent it. There are steps in between that the United States along with our international partners can take to stand by our international commitments and guarantees of protection. President Assad has already shown that U.N. resolutions mean nothing to him and he has no intention of negotiating his departure through the Geneva process. It is clear that military pressure is the only lever that will convince Assad that a political solution is in his favor. We must be ready to prove to Assad that not achieving a diplomatic solution will cost his regime dearly and there are meaningful actions we can take to help in Syria that will not require us to rerun the war in Iraq. It is not a question of options or capabilities. It is a question of will.
"There is a famous quote that states, 'All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.' As we sit back and place our hopes on negotiations and meaningless guarantees of protection, we watch as hundreds of innocent men, women, and children are brutally slaughtered every day; reinvigorated al-Qaeda affiliates operate with more freedom than ever before; terrorist groups loyal to Iran proliferate and threaten our allies; and the region descends into chaos and turmoil that will inevitably reverberate back here in America. This is the price we pay for choosing to remain disengaged and the consequences to U.S. national interests will be felt. Tyranny has indeed gained a foothold as we remain silent."

Understanding Marijuana.
Update: Colorado to bring in an estimated $98 million in marijuana tax revenue this year, exceeding the state's original expectations by 40 percent (reuters.com)
In Colorado, we have watched medical marijuana become legal, with dispensaries popping up all over the state, and a curious concentration here in Boulder.
Recently, recreational marijuana has been legalized in Washington and Colorado, and legislators are scurrying to figure out what this will look like.
No doubt the times are changing, and marijuana seems destined in the near future to be widely and legally attainable, much like a bottle of wine.
It would be impossible to dispute that fact that marijuana has a role to play in medicine (1). But, like most medicines, there are side effects. Ideally, medicines do their job to help us get one well and then, once better, we get off the medicine. Sadly, our culture has become accustomed to long-term use of medicines, and part of that culture is that we endure the side effects. With regard to marijuana, it's important to note that prolonged and heavy use, particularly in teenagers, does have side effects and has been linked to numerous health concerns (2,3,4).
Join me as I discuss the documented benefits, the potential dangers, the serious risk for teenagers, and the Ayurvedic perspective with regards to marijuana use.
The Science:
It is very clear that you can find research on both sides of the aisle citing numerous benefits and associated health risks of marijuana.
Let's take a look at some of the medicinal properties that marijuana can potentially deliver.
- for pain as an antipsychotic (6)
- as an anti-anxiety agent (5)
- for mood and sleep in cases of chronic pain (8)
- as analgesia for chronic neuropathic pain (1)
- as an appetite stimulant in debilitating diseases (cancer and AIDS) (1)
- for Crohn's Disease (10)
- in the treatment of multiple sclerosis (1,11), fibromyalgia (9), and glaucoma (12)
… to name a few.
Additionally, the two major cannabinoids found in marijuana—namely Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and Cannabidiol (CBD)—have both been found to offer unique benefits for pain management in chronic disease, benefits that may support and even balance each other's side effects.
As research in this field accumulates, it's clear that we may see the common understanding of marijuana benefits and side effects shift immensely. For now, there are still some well-documented side effects of long-term use that are worth looking at.
The Danger of Marijuana:
A 2012 study conducted by the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Drug Abuse concluded findings I believe we should all be aware of (2,3,4). I've pulled some quotes from the discussion of this and related studies, so you can see for yourself.
Persistent cannabis use was associated with neuropsychological decline broadly across domains of functioning, even after controlling for years of education. Informants also reported noticing more cognitive problems for persistent cannabis users. Impairment was concentrated among adolescent-onset cannabis users, with more persistent use associated with greater decline. Further, cessation of cannabis use did not fully restore neuropsychological functioning among adolescent-onset cannabis users. Findings are suggestive of a neurotoxic effect of cannabis on the adolescent brain and highlight the importance of prevention and policy efforts targeting adolescents (2).
The message inherent in these and in multiple supporting studies is clear. Regular marijuana use in adolescence is known to be part of a cluster of behaviors that can produce enduring detrimental effects and alter the trajectory of a young person's life—thwarting his or her potential. Beyond potentially lowering IQ, teen marijuana use is linked to school dropout, other drug use, mental health problems, etc. Given the current number of regular marijuana users (about 1 in 15 high school seniors) and the possibility of this number increasing with marijuana legalization, we cannot afford to divert our focus from the central point: regular marijuana use stands to jeopardize a young person's chances of success—in school and in life (3).
We repeatedly hear the myth that marijuana is a benign drug—that it is not addictive (which it is) or that it does not pose a threat to the user's health or brain (which it does). A major new study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (and funded partly by NIDA and other NIH institutes) provides objective evidence that, at least for adolescents, marijuana is harmful to the brain (4).
The new research is part of a large-scale study of health and development conducted in New Zealand. Researchers administered IQ tests to over 1,000 individuals at age 13 (born in 1972 and 1973) and assessed their patterns of cannabis use at several points as they aged. Participants were again tested for IQ at age 38, and their two scores were compared as a function of their marijuana use. The results were striking: Participants who used cannabis heavily in their teens and continued through adulthood showed a significant drop in IQ between the ages of 13 and 38—an average of 8 points for those who met criteria for cannabis dependence. (For context, a loss of 8 IQ points could drop a person of average intelligence into the lowest third of the intelligence range.) Those who started using marijuana regularly or heavily after age 18 showed minor declines. By comparison, those who never used marijuana showed no declines in IQ (3,4).
Unfortunately, the proportion of American teens who believe marijuana use is harmful has been declining for the past several years, which has corresponded to a steady rise in their use of the drug, as shown by NIDA's annual Monitoring the Future survey of 8th, 10th, and 12th graders. Since it decreases IQ, regular marijuana use stands to jeopardize a young person's chances of success in school (3).
The Ayurvedic Perspective:
The sattwic state is completely content, joyful, and giving, like a flower opening to the sun.
According to Ayurveda, marijuana, like all mind altering substances including alcohol, has a dulling effect on the mind.
Ayurveda categorizes the state of being into three qualities:
• Sattwa: Inner peace. Completely content, joyful, loving and giving – all heart.
• Rajas: Uses senses and emotions to be stimulated and therefore satisfied.
• Tamas: Withdraws or secludes oneself from the world as a means of protection.
In an ideal world we would all live in sattwa. We would feel safe enough to let the delicate petals of our flower open and experience our true nature to be loving, kind, gentle, giving and even powerful – all the time.
This very sattvic or childlike mindset is quickly changed when the child realizes that people can be mean, the world can be unsafe and protection and self preservation is required. At this point in life, the mind is recruited by the heart to find a means of safety through the rajasic stimulation of the senses – looking for happiness outside of ourselves by indulging in sensory experience.
Rajas Turns to Tamas
As a result of years of unsuccessful and exhausting over-stimulation and emotional ups and downs, the mind feels exhausted and withdraws, seeking emotional safety. This is the transition into tamas. Here the mind can become depressed, and begin to seek safety in drugs and alcohol. What were recreational vices in a rajasic state of mind become serious addictions as the mind finds safety by checking out, socially withdrawing and disengaging.
The problem with tamasic behavior is that it is difficult to pull out of this protective emotional cocoon. While it feels safe here, there is still a longing for sattwa and a discontentment with rajasic behavior. The difficulty here is that one has to go through the mind and rajas before one can experience sattwa. In a tamasic state, the thought of exposing oneself to the stimulation and emotional uncertainty of rajas is overwhelming. Drugs and alcohol are often abused in this state to numb the feeling of loneliness, depression and fear.
Marijuana: Sattwa, Rajas, or Tamas?
Marijuana is a tamasic drug that can negatively affect memory (7). According to the NIH, it is addictive and mind-dulling, and can do permanent cognitive harm if used in excess. This is especially true if marijuana use begins in adolescence (3).
I have a story that comes to mind when I think of cannabis in this context of sattwa, rajas and tamas. When I lived in India, I visited quite a few ashrams, and two of them were ashrams where cannabis was regularly and openly used. Having no prior judgment about cannabis, I couldn't help but notice that, for the most part, these ashrams were unkempt in comparison to the non-cannabis-smoking ashrams. The lawns were not taken care of, and the grounds were not swept.
This is not to say that using cannabis necessarily leads to this kind of negligence, but this is a perfect example of what can happen when the tamasic state goes unchecked.
I don't doubt that one-time use of marijuana can still the mind from excessive thinking and give an active mind a taste of inner silence and peace. But, as with many things, more is not better. The tamasic effects of marijuana can dull the mind, leaving the aspirant dependent on marijuana use with only an illusion of real spiritual progress.
Pain Has Its Gifts:
Marijuana is a well proven medicine for eliminating chronic pain. It is said in Ayurveda that the pain is directly across from the bliss, and the reason for the pain is to get our attention so that we can go through the pain and experience a deeper, more real aspect of the self and let a more loving and powerful version of ourselves out.
According to this perspective, experiencing the pain is essential for emotional and spiritual growth. Once you take away the pain you have taken away the road map to mental and emotional maturity. Additionally, according to Alcoholics Anonymous, emotional maturation stops at the age ones starts drinking or doing drugs.
Our culture is quick to remove pain with medicines.
Long term use of marijuana can slowly slip the user into a tamasic state of mind in which it is difficult to engage mentally or emotionally with the world, and the longer it is used, the more difficult it is to re-enter.
Our culture is quick to remove pain with medicines. If you have a tooth ache, you get pain killers. If your girlfriend dumps you and you're depressed, you get an anti-depressant. If you had a hard day, you reach for a glass of wine. If you are tired, you grab a cup of coffee. In our culture, any pain or discomfort is unacceptable and considered very treatable.
If folks realized that it is when we go through the pain that the doors to success and happiness open, we might not be so quick to suppress it. Of course, this is a very personal choice that each one of us has to make on our own.
Know the Facts and Use Your Discretion:
Long-term regular marijuana use, as we saw in the science above, is a concern for many reasons. The most trouble seems to lie in adolescents regularly using marijuana recreationally.
With teenagers now viewing marijuana as a medicine and therefore harmless, more and more adolescents are starting to use it thinking it is a safer alternative to alcohol. The research below shows that when regular marijuana use is started in adolescence, permanent and severe cognitive damage can occur (2, 3, 4).
As I mentioned earlier, as the landscape around marijuana changes and more strains are created with a medicinal purpose in mind, the cautions around marijuana use will most likely evolve also.
To adolescents using marijuana recreationally, I would caution: you only get one brain and you really can't do much without it. If you choose to smoke pot, make sure you know the facts.

OK Dr. John, can I ask you questions about a different referent group?
I'm past 55 years old and semi-retired. I don't really like to drink too much alcohol but I have been rediscovering pot and I use it after long days in my shop and during hikes in nature. I use very little, not like when I was younger and interested in a more intense 'high'.
How does this rate as compared to: 1, the stress of an office or retail job, 2, eating processed sweets and, 3. watching TV?
And just a follow-up, if I may.
Regarding, teenage users: How would you compare the harms of cannabis usage to unrestricted access to the internet and sweetened fizzy drinks?
or the effects of binge drinking for teens.
Please don't forget that the laws passed in Washington and Colorado are for those 21 and up in age. Yes teenagers will get a hold of it, just like alcohol, so many of these side-effects no longer become an issue in the main users of marijuana. This is no longer a D.A.R.E. program to scare kids, it's all about teaching modification, just like alcohol. Marijuana is legal so now you can get off work and smoke a joint instead of drinking a beer and you can't argue which has worse side-effects. And dependency on Marijuana compared to all other medications on the market is incomparable, think about veterans returning from war, marijuana treats PTSD much better and without a regiment of pills used to treat the other regiments' side-effects.
There is a lot out there negative on Marijuana, but when you compare it to each medicine/drug on the market today, Marijuana is a more natural, safer and cheaper alternative.
Agreed. I also take issue with the section "pain has its gifts," which I feel moves too lightly between radically different types of pain. Self-medicating to get over being dumped by your boyfriend is quite different than seeking relief for pain associated with bone cancer, fibromyalgia, MS or other health conditions. I wonder if the author would write so easily against pain medication if he had struggled with chronic pain himself.
I have some troubles with this post, but am appreciative for a candid dialogue on our beloved elephant. A prohibitionist culture has created a lot of biased data and it's worth stating that access and education go a long way towards responsible use. I do submit that many of the negative long-term side effects cited are likely correlated to the usage of systemic pesticides in improperly and irresponsibly grown medicines. These noxious chemicals are likely to impact the developing brain much more signifcantly than the ingestion of the cannabinoid set. Where did we get weed as teens? In end, that brownish green stuff, littered with seeds and stems and chemicals, travels up from the cartels. Because there's no safe access and no education. I was an over-prescribed troubled teen who found solace in cannabis; I do say that the dozens of millions of adolescent prescriptions for anti-depressants or stimulants suppress cognitive development much more than cannabis use in this set. I doubt that the government sources you cited share this intuition. It's not a fair fight when folks can't agree on a baseline argument.
I very much appreciate your discussion of tamas/rajas/sattwa. This is such valuable language for this discussion in particular. I must say, though, that I have seen patients in the throes of deep, tamasic depression lifted to laughter and joyful rajas with intelligently-selected medicine. I have seen my rajasic mania surrender itself to sattwic productivity.
Ahimsa must work its way into our patterns of behavior. There is no doubt that cannabis can become a toxic, tamasic, and himsic lifestyle if our friends lose focus on the truest stuff of life: adventure, connection, contribution.
Greetings from colorful Colorado.
I'm not a scientist so I cannot say anything about this article's citing or research articles. I do know that since cannabis was listed in the US as a schedule 1 drug the pharmaceutical lobby has strongly lobbied the government to stop any research funding whatsoever. There is good research overseas and I hope this area opens up so that we can develop better data.
As for teenage usage, I think the problem is usually a failure of parenting. The pot smoking problem is just a difficult as dealing with video games, junk food and other unhealthy lifestyle choices. There are no prescriptions just individual choices parents have to make in guiding their children until they can handle the more potent and distracting experiences life can offer.
We chose to explain this to our children directly when they entered middle school. We told them we did not approve of them getting involved with pot, and a few other things, until they went away to college. We also offered all kinds of alternatives that required their active participation. We told them that they had only one chance to go through high school and their physical and mental development as a young adult and we encouraged them to engage in other difficult academic, artistic and athletic challenges. We never told them that pot was bad or wrong, just distracting. We talked about 'the good things in life' that are worth working towards: self-expression of all sorts, forming close interpersonal relationships, healthy eating, hard-work, keen application of one's mind and body towards one's passions, etc. Once these values are internalized, it was easy for them to navigate through the drug and alcohol culture that has so polluted the college environment.
These are different words for the tamas/rajas/sattwa view of life.
am so fed up of people being against marijuana – how about alcohol…??? anyone getting raped cuz of grass? drunken driving? etc and so on??? i mean really fed up!!!
This article is not against marijuana and does not advocate alcohol use, (which would also be classified tamasic in Ayurveda or yoga). The author lays out the benefits of marijuana first. But a balanced treatment necessarily includes challenging the myth that marijuana is entirely benign. I would even suggest he does not go far enough in this regard, as he does not even mention the research that indicates (though not definitively) that marijuana contributes to bi-polar condition. And if you think that's not a serious possibility, consider that 25% of people diagnosed with bi-polar disorder in the US end up committing suicide.
Such a well written post.. Thnkx for sharing this post!
Appreciate this post as it presents both the benefits of and warnings against in a balanced, detached manner. Interesting tie in to rajasic/sattvic/tamasic states of being. Thank you.
As a person who lives with chronic pain I must say that using cannabis feels SO much better than demerol and codeine. It just makes the pain so much more bearable without the wired feeling of prescription meds.
It is also wonderful for sleep.
In BC cannabis is still illegal however we have many medical cannabis places, mostly non-profits. The people running these places are the most educated and compassionate.
When I'm there and I see other customers/patients with far worse physical challenges it humbles me. My sister, who lives with unspeakable pain at times has taken very strong narcotics over many years. There is always the risk of overdose or reaction from combining meds. Not so with cannabis.
As a 66 yr. old retired M.D. and a regular cannabis user since the age of 14, I can categorically say that 90% of the studies and reports quoted here are fallacious and nonsensical.
Dr. Douillard needs to study REAL medicine.
This article is hugely problematic. Røgeberg's revisiting of the data casts great doubt on the study that Douillard quotes. Read http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=…
Even before Røgeberg revisited the data, Hart labeled that study as extremely preliminary. Read healthland.time.com/2012/08/28/does-weekly-marijuana-use-by-teens-really-cause-a-drop-in-iq/
The lack of response seems familiar.
I thought this was an interesting article, given the manic polarization of this issue in CO and elsewhere. Let me preface by saying I have used a wide spectrum of drugs recreationally, and find many of them entertaining or beneficial with infrequent use. I chuckle at the vehement 'it's not addictive!' defense by heavy users. Really? If someone took your weed away, what would you do? Also, having a MMJ grower in my family, I know what is sprayed on it and how unnatural it actually is. Silver thiosulfate? Fertilizers? Would you eat that with your organic salad? And alcohol can actually be used beneficially and medicinally, but no one likes to point this out. Understand the drug war failure and your personal rights, blah, blah. I just like pointing out a poorly constructed argument.
It is as if you read my head! Material realize a lot in regards to this, as you had written the publication inside something like that. I do believe you could apply a number of photographs they are driving your message household somewhat, but instead of that will, this really is excellent site. A fantastic examine. I am going to definitely be backside.
For pain as an antipsychotic ?
Part of the path of yoga is a renunciation of the world……. Also, yoga is about finding balance. As someone who has a very high IQ and a lot of sensitivity, I find smoking helps bring me from the extreme end of the spectrum into a less intense place. It can definitely be abused and has addictive qualities…..but even food has addictive qualities. Like everything in life, moderation is the key.
set and setting
Thanks so much for this thoughtful article. I consider it a must read for anyone using or considering using the drug, particularly for teenagers. I support legalization for many reasons, but we need to educate people about the downside of marijuana. You are spot on about the myth that marijuana is entirely benign.
I study ayurveda and am also a huge supporter of cannabis. It increases vata so you have to keep that in mind but no doubt there are amazing benifits to using cannabis and even medicinal wines in small amounts. In my experience cannabis is the only thing that helps me in my menstral cycle and I mostly only use it during that time. Keep the balance listen to your body and do everything with awareness. Ayurveda teaches that there is nothing that is not medicine. Have respect for everything and see the qualities of it.
Sorry. You had me at "curious concentration here in boulder." What?! There is one licensed dispensary here. One to Denver's several and other cities.
As someone who has dealt with the nerve damage of polio for 59 years and has been dealing with the increased pain and fatigue from Post Polio for the last 15 .. I think his little tirade "pain is essential for emotional and spiritual growth. Once you take away the pain you have taken away the road map to mental and emotional maturity" was enough to turn me off to his whole badly researched article. If that is Ayurvedic medicine then everyone needs to stay away.

Because of the shortened season, Celtics coach Doc Rivers figures draft picks JaJuan Johnson and E'Twaun Moore will say with Boston rather than get some games in for the Maine Red Claws.
Under normal circumstances, they would be spending time this winter in Porland, Maine, gaining basketball experience.
Rather than sitting on the Celtics' bench, rookies JaJuan Johnson and E'Twaun Moore would be getting some playing time with the Maine Red Claws of the NBA Development League.
With only 66 games in 124 days this season due to the lockout, though, Johnson and Moore will likely be staying with the Celtics as insurance policies. Coach Doc Rivers needs as many bodies as possible for whenever practice days pop up and in case veterans need a night off down the road.
"This year, I hope we can keep everybody up, honestly,'' said Rivers. "I think there'll be games where guys will be sitting.
"I don't know about the D-League this year. I don't know if (not being sent down) helps them or hurts them. We've got to think about the team this year and I think it'll probably be better for them to hang around us.''
In the past, the Celtics have sent young players to the NBDL with J.R. Giddens, Bill Walker and Lester Hudson going to Maine in the 2009-10 season and Avery Bradley making the rip north last season.
Johnson, a first-round pick, has played just 15 minutes while Moore, a second-round choice, has played 19 minutes. The two Purdue teammates have combined for nine points, playing mostly at the end of one-sided games.
"They're coming along,'' said Rivers. "They're just in the numbers game right now with so many guys in front of them.
"I think both of them are going to be long-time pros and good pros. E'Twaun's the bigger surprise because I didn't know as much about him. We did a lot of research on JaJuan. (Moore) can play. He can shoot the ball. The question was can he play the point guard position. I think he can.''
The Red Claws, by the way, are coached by New Bedford native Dave Leitao, a former head coach at Virginia, Northeastern and DePaul. His assistant coach is University of Connecticut product Donyell Marshall while the roster includes ex-Celtics guard Ricky Davis, who is on the comeback trail at age 32.
Pierce closes in: When the Celtics host the NBA champion Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday night, it will be the 969th game for Paul Pierce with Boston. Next week, he will move into third place on the Celtics' all-time list, surpassing Kevin McHale (971). John Havlicek (1,270) and Robert Parish (1,106) are first and second. … The Mavericks will be without Jason Kidd (back ailment) when they visit Boston. ... Entering Sunday, Ray Allen shared the NBA lead for 3-pointers made with Richard Jefferson of the San Antonio Spurs and Ryan Anderson of the Magic. Allen is sizzling at 63 percent, hitting 26 of 41. Jefferson is shooting 57 percent and Anderson is at 42 percent.
