Kragthorpe: April offers intrigue for Jazz's fate
As the Jazz launch their April schedule tonight in Portland, these combinations remain available to them:
• No. 1: Making the playoffs and losing their own first-round draft pick, but gaining Golden State's pick.
• No. 2: Making the playoffs and losing both draft picks.
• No. 3: Missing the playoffs and keeping their lottery pick, besides gaining Golden State's pick.
• No. 4: Missing the playoffs and keeping their pick, but losing Golden State's pick.
My preferred scenario, by far, is No. 1. The more likely projection, as of Monday morning, is No. 4. But they're all still in play, with the outcome to be determined not much sooner than April 26, the last day of the regular season.
To review: If the Jazz make the playoffs, they have to give Minnesota their 2012 first-round pick, via the Al Jefferson trade. If Golden State's pick is not in the top seven (after the lottery results), the Warriors must give it to the Jazz, via the Deron Williams trade with New Jersey.
To me, competing in the playoffs even for only four or five games against Oklahoma City would be a valuable experience for a young team. And if the Jazz could do that and still have a lottery pick, that would be perfect.
The problem with that combination is the Jazz are slumping and Golden State is crumbling. The Jazz have lost four of five games since winning six in a row, falling below No. 8 Houston in the Western Conference. But the Rockets gave the Jazz some hope Sunday by blowing a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter of an eventual overtime loss to Indiana.
The Rockets, still playing without guards Kyle Lowry (bacterial infection) and Kevin Martin (sprained shoulder), have four straight road games, so the Jazz have a good chance to move ahead of them this week. The teams will meet April 11 at Houston in a key game. Phoenix also is in the picture; the Jazz host the Suns on Wednesday and again April 24.
Meanwhile, the Jazz need Golden State to remain above the bottom seven in the NBA standings. That's becoming more of a problem, with the Warriors having lost five straight games. They still have the league's ninth-worst record, but Detroit, New Jersey and Sacramento are capable of finishing ahead of them. Of course, the Jazz can accelerate that process by beating Golden State on Friday.
Tracking these possibilities certainly will make April interesting in Jazzland. But if the No. 2 scenario is the ultimate result, it sure would take the fun out of June.

What Exactly Is The Difference Between Steamy Romance And Erotica?
If there's one question I get asked most often (other than, "What upcoming books do you recommend?"), it's what the difference between erotica and romance is these days. In my formative years, back when I was cutting my teeth on my beloved Herotica volumes edited by Susie Bright, it was easy to tell: Erotica was the stuff with full-on sexy times hidden in the back of the indie bookstore, while romance was the stuff that never mentioned any body part by name and took up an entire wall of my Waldenbooks.
Now, however, the line is much more blurred. Some of the steamier category romances will include fully descriptive sex, and when it comes to non-category? It often seems like they are erotica.
So what's the difference? How can you tell a contemporary romance from a paranormal romance from erotica?
First thing's first: the sex. I know you're saying "but almost all of them, except sweetheart and inspirational romance, have sex." True, but let's take a look at the exact definition of erotica. Merriam-Webster defines it as "literary or artistic works having an erotic theme or quality." (And apparently, their teachers never taught them not to use a word to define the same word.) You might argue that some of the hotter romances definitely could be said to have an erotic quality, but it's actually more than that.
Wikipedia takes it another step, by defining it as "any artistic work that deals substantively with erotically stimulating or sexually arousing subject matter" and goes on to suggest that it differs from pornography in that erotica "has high-art aspirations." Taken that way, it sounds almost like erotica is really porn that tries too hard, but I think that's an oversimplification as well.
The best definition I've found actually came from Jane Litte in a Publisher's Weekly article that pre-dates the Fifty Shades of Grey era (prophetically, the article began with a discussion of the popularity of Twilight driving readers looking for sexytimes in their novels), in which she defined erotica as, "when sex is the basis of the conflict."
That's it in a nutshell. If a novel's driving force is the sex between the hero and heroine, or if sex is somehow the central theme of the novel, you'd call it erotica — or "erotic romance" or "erotic thriller" or whatever subgenre you'd like it to be. It's why M.J. Rose's Butterfield Institute series is marketed as an erotic thriller without a clear sexual relationship between a hero and a heroine in any of the books. And don't forget that how a book is marketed can be different from the content actually within the book. Then there's the fact that even books within the same series might not all stay within the strictures of one genre. (This may be why our reviews categorized Rose's series as both Mystery/Thriller and Romantic Suspense at various times.)
What's clear, however, is that the classification is often in the eye of the beholder — and the publisher. Erotica is what's selling right now, and any time a publisher can market a book in a hot-selling genre, that's what will happen.
A general rule of thumb, however, is that if it's sex driving the story? It's erotica, or erotic <insert subgenre here>. If it's the story driving the sex? It's probably something else.
What are some books that you think straddle the line between erotica and romance? Are there any titles you've read that have been misleading in terms of how they were categorized? Let us know in the comments! And for more erotic romance, visit our Everything Erotica Page.

I recently reinstalled Ubuntu Linux (8.04 - Hardy Heron) and wanted to update my version of Gimp to the latest. Unfortunately 'sudo aptitude install gimp' in a terminal simply does not do the trick.

Commented TWC President of Marketing Stephen Bruno: "We're thrilled to be working alongside Fandango on this unprecedented offer to SAG-AFTRA members.

Vehicles with Incentives & Rebates
Although the EPA classifies it as a compact, we're not so sure the 2014 Nissan Cube is so easily pigeonholed. Its boxy shape and versatile interior mimic a small SUV, while its low ground clearance and car-like driving experience tell us the Cube is more like a mini station wagon. One thing is for sure, the Cube's radical styling puts it in a class all its own. From its asymmetrical rear window to its swing-open rear door, the Cube aches to be different. Buyers young and old will love the Cube's sub-$20K starting price, its long list of cool features, and its numerous accessories.

Hi all,
Its been along time i want to get myself an ultra small wheel folding bike that is easy to fold and looks innovative. I have scale down my choices to Strida and Mobiky, and eventually selecting the Mobiky because i just love the way it folds and looks.
I have always been admired by the design and engineering work put into this bike, and looking at his bike certainly gave me that feeling i am owning a piece of hi tech equipment. Since i want to add in abit of speciality to distingiush this is my unique bike, so i started to search some possible upgrade items aroun the globe for a slight modification.
The bike itself...from my point of view is fairly ridgid. I read some of the old posting here saying its floppy, but i dont find such case on my bike perhaps its still new. The speed is not too slow with the internal 3 speed Shimano Nexus hub,the bike can be easily cruising at approx 20-25km/h with not much effort. I in particular love the fat tire which provide a the fucntion of suspension, and the brake disc itself can stop the bike in quite a short distance. The folding mechnism is very smart, i can fold the bike into the stand up position in 3 sec and start pushing it around like a trolley. The bike is heavy as everyone can expect, and i am quite certain that the design of the bike is heading for the solution of "FOLD + PUSH" rather than "FOLD + CARRY". I have tried Dahon and KHS as a fold bike, but this gave me the highest pleasure when riding it, i love it!
So here is the finished porduct, perhaps this can be a good chance for people who are interest to get one and have a more detail look .....

Transform your blog into podcast using autocasting
Jul 22nd
Posted by Benedict Herold in blogging
Autocasting is the term used to refer either service or tool that would automatically convert the text on a blog into speech. Most of these tools / service would read the RSS feed and covert them into speech using their inbuilt Tex-to-Speech (TTS) technology.
Why Autocasting?
Autocasting can be used in conjunction with normal blog that would add more liveliness to users. Podcasting would allow readers to listen to your post while they are working in parallel. Thus it would help the author to convey their complete story to their reader rather than readers scanning the post text.

The report didn't name names, but it indicated illegal hormones and other performance enhancers are widespread in Australian sports, facilitated by coaches and trainers. "The findings are shocking and will disgust Australian sports fans," said Australia's Justice and Home Affairs Minister Jason Clare. "It's cheating, but it's worse than that. It's cheating with the help of criminals." The probe also found criminal networks growing increasingly involved in Australian sports, partially because of the PEDs and partially because of the growing popularity of betting, especially in rugby and Australian rules football, with at least "one occasion" of match fixing. "This is not a black day in Australian sport, this is the blackest day in Australian sport," the former head of the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority told USA Today.

About the author:
Hello and welcome!
My name is Kirsten Edwards aka KLeighE (pronounced Kaylee) of Hinterland Harmony Art and Illustrations. I am the author and illustrator of this uniquely fun and educational book. I reside in Sanger, Texas, on top of a hill in the country, with my husband and 5 cats, which gives me a lot of inspiration for creativity!
I simply adore illustrated books. Reading and art have always been an important part of my life, and I hope to bring that joy to children that makes them find a love of reading too.
A Journey Through Alphabet Land was originally A Journey Through Your ABC's. It used to be a regular story but I have changed it to a rhyming story. Since 2006 I have taught myself Photoshop and have become more adept in using the software. So, I decided to recreate the book and instead of a plain white background, I envisioned a land where a boy and girl dragonfly would visit to practice their letters of the alphabet. I scanned all the colored papers from a package of construction paper to my computer. Some I magically adjusted in Photoshop to get that perfect color I wanted that wasn't offered in the package, but I still managed to maintain the texture I wanted for this book. I have added some new creatures and objects, and updated some of the original art with this magical tool, called a clipping mask, to cover the old construction paper with new vibrant paper. I love the continuity of the pages. It's as if you're flying through Alphabet Land's territory and learning all about what and who resides in this magical land.
To find out more about me and my creativity, please visit: http://www.hinterlandharmony.com
If you would like to contact me: firstname.lastname@example.com
Thank you for stopping by! Wishing you a fantabulous and magical day!
A Journey Through Alphabet Land
Authored by Kirsten Edwards
Two dragonflies, Shanook and Kakela, are going on a journey through Alphabet Land to practice the letters of the alphabet.
"We're going on a journey in Alphabet Land,
and to have you join us would be grand!
We'll start with 'A' and end with 'Z',
there's a lot of fun things for us to see,
like an airplane, a beaver and kangaroos,
there is even someone with eight shoes!"

John Jay High School senior Darren Gomez is the 2011 Poughkeepsie Journal Boys Soccer Player of the Year. / Darryl Bautista/Poughkeepsie Journal
Grade: 12
Position: Defense
Vital stats: An All-Section 1 selection, as well as Conference I League As Most Valuable Player, Gomez helped lead the Patriots to the Section 1 Class AA championship game for a second straight season. The Patriots (16-2-2 overall) lost to Horace Greeley, 2-1. Gomez returned to John Jays starting lineup after missing the 2010 postseason with a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
Quotable: Darren was a great leader in the back, helping to organize our defense, John Jay coach Rob Seipp said. We recorded 10 shutouts during the season and Darren was a big part of that.
Hes very athletic, Roy C. Ketcham coach Scott Grimes said. One of the things Ive said to people is that if you play a long ball to a space against John Jay, its almost automatic that Darren is going to get there first. He makes it extremely difficult to score.
Team: Poughkeepsie
Grade: 12
Position: Midfield
Vital stats: An All-Section 1 and all-league selection in Conference I League C, Aidoo scored three goals and added seven assists for Poughkeepsie.
Quotable: Daniel displays great character and team spirit on and off the soccer field, Poughkeepsie coach Kurt Jesman said. He consistently provides his team and coaches great effort and a never-give-up attitude no matter what the game situation happens to be.
Team: Beacon
Grade: 11
Position: Forward
Vital stats: An All-Section 1 selection and Conference I League Cs Most Valuable Player, Davis had 11 goals and 23 assists for the Bulldogs (14-3). Davis began the season at center midfield before coach Craig Seaman moved him to the front line.
Quotable: He was probably our most technical player in terms of getting results, Seaman said. We were having trouble scoring goals, and once he moved up top, he was the creative force offensively.
Team: Arlington
Grade: 11
Position: Forward
Vital stats: An All-Section 1 and all-league selection in Conference I League B, Greblick tallied 11 goals and eight assists for the Admirals (14-4-1), who lost in a Section 1 Class AA semifinal to John Jay.

Team: Spackenkill
Grade: 12
Position: Forward
Vital stats: Lanza had 11 goals and three assists for the Spartans, who lost in the Section 9 Class B championship game to John S. Burke Catholic, 1-0.

Team: Roy C. Ketcham
Grade: 11
Position: Center midfield
Vital stats: An All-Section 1 and all-league selection in Conference I League A, Mahoney was a defensive key for the Indians.

Team: Rhinebeck
Grade: 10
Position: Forward
Vital stats: An offensive catalyst, McClenahan scored 13 goals and had nine assists to lead the Hawks (11-5 overall) to the Mid-Hudson Athletic League final, who they lost to Marlboro, and a Section 9 Class C semifinal, which they lost to S.S. Seward.
Quotable: For almost every game during the second half of the season, he was doubled up, Rhinebeck coach Justin Wiesenthal said. The other teams recognized the need to shut down this strong player, who is extremely exciting to watch. Any team in the Hudson Valley would love to have him as their striker.
Team: Our Lady of Lourdes
Grade: 12
Position: Defense
Vital stats: An All-Section 1 and all-league selection in Conference I League B, Metz helped backstop a strong Lourdes defense.

Vital stats: Nowak had nine shutouts for the Iron Dukes, who won their first ever Mid-Hudson Athletic League championship. Marlboro (10-5-1) lost in a Section 9 Class A semifinal to Goshen. Nowak stopped four penalty kicks.
Quotable: This kid was unstoppable when it came to penalty kicks, Marlboro coach Jim Ventriglia said. They were all in big games. He blocked a PK in the MHAL championship against Rhinebeck.
Team: John Jay
Grade: 12
Position: Midfielder
Vital stats: An All-Section 1 and all-league selection in Conference I League A, Pourakis was a key defensive player for the Patriots run in the Section 1 Class AA playoffs.

Team: Roy C. Ketcham
Grade: 12
Position: Forward
Vital stats: An All-Section 1 and all-league selection in Conference I League A, Tolman tallied 14 goals and eight assists for the Indians.

School: Spackenkill
Grade: 12
Position: Defense
Vital stats: Kurzum sured up the defense in front of sophomore goalkeeper Blake Kawalski, Blanco said.
Quotable: Raneem was our rock on defense, Blanco said. He was our center back. Without Raneem, we would not have had the success that we did this year. His quick pace and intensity was bountiful and consistent.

Grade: 11
Position: Midfielder
Vital stats: Lanza had eight goals and 12 assists for the Spartans.
Quotable: Alex stepped up and played like a champion this year, Blanco said. His hard work and dedication to our program has made him the face of the future for our team.
School: Marlboro
Grade: 11
Position: Center midfielder
Vital stats: Laubach scored 10 goals and added eight assists for MHAL champion Marlboro.
Quotable: Adam was our playmaker in the middle, Ventriglia said. He was instrumental in all our victories and all the success we had. Hands down, he was the leader of our team.
School: Beacon
Grade: 11
Position: Center midfielder
Vital stats: An all-league selection in Conference I League C and an All-Section 1 pick, Leclerc had nine goals and four assists.
Quotable: Kyle was a real strong tackler in the midfield and excellent in the air, Seaman said. He kind of sets the tone and serves as a link between the defense and the offense.

School: Rhinebeck
Grade: 11
Position: Defense
Vital stats: Sansola scored only one goal in the 2011 season, but Wiesenthal said he was a key reason for the Hawks success.
Quotable: As other teams will tell you, even for the strongest forwards, it is tough to get past Cory, Wiesenthal said. His vision of the field and tactical decision making led us to giving up less than eight goals throughout the regular season.
School: Our Lady of Lourdes
Grade: 12
Position: Defense
Vital stats: An all-Section 1 honorable mention, Schanz, Schlottmann said, was a big part of the Warriors defense that allowed less than 1.4 goals per game.

School: Marlboro
Grade: 11
Position: Forward/midfielder
Vital stats: Verjoni had eight goals and seven assists for the Iron Dukes.

School: Franklin D. Roosevelt
Grade: 11
Position: Forward
Vital stats: A varsity player since he was in ninth grade, Wajda tallied nine goals and two assists for the Presidents.

21 Jul 2010Virus News
Kaspersky Lab has published an article entitled "Black DDoS" which provides an analysis of the Black Energy 2 malicious bot.
The Black Energy bot has never stopped evolving. Kaspersky Lab has currently detected over 4,000 variants of the first version of this malicious program and the second version has been on security researchers' radars for two years. Black Energy 2 attracts hackers due to the fact that it's both versatile and easy to manage. The bot supports updateable plug-ins (additional modules) that make it easy for hackers to modify and expand the functionality of Black Energy 2. Plugins can be quickly installed and updated on commands sent from the remote administration center.
The bot's most popular plug-ins are designed to conduct DDoS attacks (i.e. distributed attacks designed to bring the targeted systems down). Numerous zombie computers infected with Black Energy 2 simultaneously send malformed and/or large data packets to the node under attack on commands sent from the command-and-control center. As a result, the target node will be overloaded and lose its ability to process any other data. Black Energy 2 supports the use of a variety of protocols to send such packets.
However, the features of Black Energy 2 are not limited to DDoS attacks. Malware writers have developed plug-ins that steal bank credentials and distribute malicious programs via peer-to-peer networks. "It is difficult to predict how botnet masters will use their botnets in the future. It's not hard for malware writers to create a plug-in and get it downloaded to infected user machines." says the author of the article, Kaspersky Lab virus analyst Dmitry Tarakanov.
The article provides an overview of the main Black Energy 2 components that are responsible for infection and communicating with the command-and-control center, as well as of the most common plug-ins and basic commands. The full version of Black DDoS is available at Securelist.com.

Your Memorial Sloan Kettering doctor will recommend a treatment plan for you based on several factors: the location and size of the tumor, how much of the colon or rectum it has penetrated, whether it's metastasized (spread) to other organs, and whether you have an inherited genetic syndrome.
Our team of colorectal cancer experts — consisting of specialists in medical oncology, surgery, radiation therapy, and other areas — meets regularly to discuss patients' diagnostic and treatment information. Having representatives of many different disciplines involved in your care ensures that we consider all possible approaches to your treatment, and that we give you the best possible care designed for your specific needs.
Your plan of care may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination of those treatments. Your team could also recommend a clinical trials if there's one they think is right for you.
In some people with a high risk of an inherited colorectal cancer, our doctors may recommend prophylactic (preventive) surgery. Our surgeons can treat these conditions with operations that meet your unique situation, often using minimally invasive techniques. After surgery, patients usually regain normal bowel function after recovery, maintaining a good quality of life with a significantly reduced risk of cancer.

This article has the potential of overpopulating an overpopulated world but let the facts be known. Did you know that having sex three times a week burns the same calories as running about several miles per week?
Some of you just like the sound of that so you read it again. I know I did!
Sex, like exercise, produces hormones that give you a great workout. It reduces pain levels, boosts your immune system, lowers cholesterol levels, and relieves stress.
And sex burns calories!
By one scientific estimate, you can burn 177 calories for each hour of sex. If you're a two-minute lover this is not an ideal weight loss program for you.
But think about it: you get sweaty, heart rate goes up, you make funny faces - just like a day at the gym, right?
A recent study suggests that men who have sex at least three times a week cut their risk of a heart attack in half. (So men tell your mate that you have to have sex three times a week or else you will die!)
Studies on women have shown that after exercise, arousal levels were significantly heightened. This may be connected to why people have great sex after a wholesome argument. They're all revved up!
Hey, this doesn't mean that women should take a "cardio kick-butt class", or get into a fight with their partner before having sex. Hmm, or does it? Hey, it's your choice!
This in no way means you can replace exercise for sex. They actually complement each other.
When people exercise, self esteem and energy goes up. Feeling better about yourself in general is a big part of feeling sexual.
Now before you horny toads go bed hopping, note that experts believe that sex in a loving relationship has a healing effect on body and mind, but that promiscuous sex has the opposite effect. Japanese scientists recently announced that people engaging in adulterous relations were more susceptible to fatal strokes. So I suggest a loving committed relationship.
Hello, did I just lose half my readers? Hopefully not! Just put a little love in the mattress mambo.
Oh, don't forget protection!
P.S. You don't need a personal trainer for these exercises!
But for more information on more typical workouts, check out www.ammoathletics.com.
@ 4:24pm ET on January 5, 2009 Ever since I have been working out on a regular my sex drive has increased. Why is that?
@ 4:51pm ET on January 5, 2009 Thanks for your comment. Fortunately one of the perks of strength training is the increase in hormone levels, hence the increase in sex drive. This is a great, especially when you have someone to share this benefit with! Enjoy

* Why didn't Jack move to San Francisco or New York? It was the '60s, on the dawn of the Gay Rights movement, he should have figured out that not everywhere was Homophobic, especially not as homophobic as rural Wyoming or Texas.
** Maybe because he had a stable home life (as stable as it could be, all things considered), affluence, and a family. He also seemed a country boy through-and-through, so moving to a place like San Francisco or New York might rankle with him.
** It would have been much more difficult to see Ennis because of the distance, even if they only met up infrequently.
** Because they don't identify themselves as gay, and would have seen the urban gay community as completely alien.
*** This. Just because you are bisexual or gay, doesn't mean you are going to automatically fit in a stereotypical gay community. It is possible to have your gender role and sexuality be the same, the opposite, or some wild combination. They aren't mutually inclusive.
** Their professions did not really fit into urban life, and they themselves had probably no idea of how to survive and make a living in the big city. Also, in that time period, gay culture was not widely discussed in any event and by no means were the cities havens from anti-gay violence (still aren't in fact). This was why gay ghettos existed and gays tended to cluster together. The idea that they could have a "safe" life in a city might not have been something either of them would have really believed.

"She was lying to me and she said she loved me and she is cheating me."
He added: "I choose I prefer to kill my girlfriend and then kill myself. I love you and I can't be without you."
Arsema Dawit was 15 year old when was killed by her 21 year old boyfriend in the lift of a block of flats in South London, he stabbed her 60 times because he had found out she had cheated on him.
He saw her as his property not a person and when he might lose her he decided if he couldn't have her no one could.
The man suffered serious brain damage in a suicide attempt so never stood trial, instead he was sentenced to an indefinite hospital order.
It's so hard to constantly read these stories of young men and boys killing girls because they don't want them to belong to anyone but themselves. What can we do to teach boys that girls and women are people not objects? How can we begin to foster empathy in our society? Because reading about crimes after crime committed by people who don't see others are worthy of kindness and care is starting to kill my sense of humanity.
