Joe Johnson banks in buzzer-beating game-winning 3 to beat NuggetsDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 13 hrs ago
A couple of years back, Kevin Garnett introduced us to "Joe Jesus," his preferred nickname for then-Brooklyn Nets teammate Joe Johnson, whom Garnett said "might not be there when you call on him, but he's there when you need him." On Monday night in Brooklyn, in the midst of a season to forget, Johnson showed the Barclays Center crowd how a resurrection really feels.

Things did not look good for the Nets, who had built a 16-point lead over the visiting Denver Nuggets midway through the second quarter before watching Michael Malone's club whittle the deficit down over the next two periods, erase it with 5:34 left in the fourth, and take a two-point lead on a wild runner by Nuggets power forward Kenneth Faried with 1.3 seconds remaining:
Here's what Johnson's saving grace looked like from courtside and, crucially, in slow-motion:

Warriors' Festus Ezeli out at least 6 weeks after knee surgeryDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 16 hrs ago
After missing five straight games with soreness in his left knee, Golden State Warriors center Festus Ezeli underwent arthroscopic surgery "to clean out debris from his left knee," the team announced Monday.

The 26-year-old big man, who hasn't suited up since Golden State's Jan. 25 win over the San Antonio Spurs, is expected to miss at least six weeks recovering from the procedure, but is expected to return before the end of the regular season in mid-April.

Russell Westbrook made fun of Kevin Durant's Super Bowl photo workDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 17 hrs ago
After Saturday's close loss to the Golden State Warriors, Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant stuck around the Bay Area to attend Super Bowl 50 and serve as a sideline photographer for The Players Tribune, the athlete-led website for which he serves as deputy publisher. Acting as a media member seems like a pretty stark role reversal for a player who has become one of the NBA's preeminent ombudsmen, but from the sound of it, KD really enjoyed taking the Tribune and the NFL up on what he called "a dream offer" ... and, from the looks of it, star teammate Russell Westbrook kind of enjoys having a brand new media member to put through the wringer.

Does firing Derek Fisher actually change anything for the Knicks?Dan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 22 hrs ago
Four weeks ago, the New York Knicks sat at 19-20, having already surpassed last season's win total. They ranked 15th in the league in points scored per possession and 18th in points allowed per possession; they were, more or less, a slightly-below-average NBA team. They had one present-tense All-Star playing arguably the best all-around ball of his career, one exciting future star providing tantalizing nightly glimpses of his expansive talent, and a head coach who, with the benefit of an actual NBA roster in Year 2, seemed to be making incremental improvements in his second season.

Drake and Reggie Miller will play ping-pong at All-Star WeekendDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 3 days ago
The NBA world will descend on Toronto next week, as the league takes a break from the regular season for the annual All-Star Weekend festivities — Friday's Rising Stars Challenge, the Slam Dunk contest, Three-Point Contest and Skills Challenge on All-Star Saturday Night, and Sunday's main event, the 2016 NBA All-Star Game.
There will also be about a million and a half loosely tethered and tangentially related events, parties, festivities, "brand activations" and other various happenings ... including, apparently, a table-tennis throwdown between Hall of Famer/TNT color commentator Reggie Miller and Canadian national treasure/Toronto Raptors brand ambassador and occasional public-address announcer Drake.
The ever-courteous and helpful Raptors offered their services in helping the event come together:
Adam Silver: NBA will likely look at change to Hack-a-Whoever rule
During the 2015 playoffs, we saw an uptick in coaches ordering the intentional away-from-the-ball fouling of bricklaying free-throw shooters, like the Los Angeles Clippers' DeAndre Jordan and the Houston Rockets' Dwight Howard, to short-circuit their teams' potent offenses. That sparked much discussion about whether the grind-the-game-to-a-halt eyesore of a practice should be eliminated from NBA basketball.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
As my colleague Eric Freeman has noted, it's kind of funny to talk about sophistication when one of the more recent innovations in Hack-a-Whoever is literally players jumping on guys' backs:
Not exactly "state-of-the-art technology." Still, the point stands.

Charles Barkley slams basically everything about the woeful Suns
The Phoenix Suns have lost 23 of their last 26 games. They have been arguably the NBA's worst team since the start of December, and inarguably its worst — like, far and away, on both ends of the floor — since the calendar flipped to 2016, posting double-digit losses to the Los Angeles Lakers, Minnesota Timberwolves and Philadelphia 76ers, the other three worst teams in the league, in a three-week span. Their three top scorers are hurt, with two done for the season; their head coach and his top assistants have been fired; the organization, which seemed so full of promise 18 months ago, once again looks bereft and adrift.
Splash Brothers head up 3-Point field; bigs enter Skills Challenge

Manu Ginobili will miss at least a month after testicular surgery
Most days, I imagine it's pretty great to be Manu Ginobili. Today is not one of those days.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
The San Antonio Spurs announced Thursday that the Argentine shooting guard "will be sidelined for at least one month" after undergoing surgery related to "a testicular injury" that he suffered during the Spurs' Wednesday win over the New Orleans Pelicans. Yes, seriously. All of those words are in the Spurs' press release.
Suddenly, it makes a lot more sense why teammate Tony Parker didn't seem too keen on cracking wise about his longtime backcourt partner taking a shot to the groin while taking a charge on Pelicans forward Ryan Anderson with 2:26 left in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's contest:

This female boxer looks really nice and cute, that's for sure!
What a nice mix of cute and tough
I thought she was winking at first, but the black eye is cool. She isn't bothered by it obviously!
I think this is a kangaroo... the color pattern and the shape of the face make a lot more sense for that, as well as the fact that she's a boxer... Roos also have long ears, you know. The character reminds me a bit of Tifa from FF7 for some reason...
Wrong tail for a kangaroo. They have solid tails, and use them as support when kicking with their back legs, & when moving slowly.
Lop-eared cat? Fennec fox?

LatinaLista — The innovation happening in the world today would never have occurred had there not been people who were curious enough to search for answers to their questions.
In fact, curiosity is what has driven almost every major scientific breakthrough, discovery and invention throughout history — no coincidence that Mars' rover was christened "Curiosity" — but as historian Joyce Appleby tells journalist Bill Moyers, there was a time when curiosity was frowned upon by the Catholic Church.
According to Appleby, curiosity was seen as a type of "lust for knowledge and asking questions that only God knew, so you weren't supposed to ask about eclipses or tides or comets or anything of that sort."
Thankfully, humankind has come a long way since those times. To know exactly how far we have come, Appleby shares with Moyers her new recently released book Shores of Knowledge: New World Discoveries and the Scientific Imagination which reviews 400 years of history chronicling how curiosity drove humankind's evolution in creating the world "we inhabit today" — lending credence to the belief that curiosity is an innate part of what makes us human.

Today I am ill and lying in the bed with a medium temperature… but honestly, I can't lie in bed the whole day doing nothing, even when being ill… so I tried something…
First of all, I haven't invented this article, I just modified it to match a Windows 7 installation running in a Hyper-V R2 environment. The original information is coming from here, here and here.
To use Bitlocker in a Windows 7-Guest on a Hyper-V environment follow these steps:
Of course you might ask, why I tried this out!?
Well, it happens sometimes that when preparing a presentation or working on a tricky problem for a customer, it's better doing this at home where I can work quietly and therefore much more productive than in our Microsoft office where every n minutes someone passes by and asks questions or starts a discussion.
At home I am working on my power workstations which are much faster and more powerful than any notebook. The problem - while working at home, I often need full access to the corporate network. This is possible, only, if you have a machine joined to our Microsoft domain and – since the release of Windows 7 – that has Bitlocker installed. And honestly, I don't want to join my private machine into the corp.-network, so my idea was running a VM on my Hyper-V server at home, that is joined to the corp.-domain
I had a similar idea for another reason – as you know we're in a team where we're working a lot with pre-release and beta-software. As pre-release software is typically not performance-optimized and carries a lot of debug-symbols etc. with it, it's performance requirements are typically higher. So it's better running that stuff on a physical system. So what my thought is: I have a stable, released-software-only VM running on a Hyper-V in our office, as well, that is joined to the corporate network and that I can use while installing another demo-environment on my physical machine. And again, the virtual machine joined to corp-net must use Bitlocker per our policy. So, another case where Bitlocker in a VM makes sense.

Paul Ryan Lies and a 71 year old man Gets Beaten For It By Cops - WHY America ?
External image
B Movie Wannabe Rep. Paul Ryan ® seems to have hit a nerve with America; and this Gentleman shows it
How can the Republicans stand up at podiums all across America and spread this false doctrine ?
This is a prevaricator movement and it's time it stopped
Perjury is what it amounts to. This 71 year old man was treated as though he threatened someone, when in essence he actually did the right thing.
External image
His standing up and questioning Paul Ryan was the absolute right thing to do. yet he is treated like he is the problem; instead of the prevaricator who made the statements.
Yes we will continue to call them prevaricators until they stop lying.
America needs to remember that children's rhyme "Liar Liar Pants on Fire" and make one change to it - "Congress You're Liars and now All Our Pants Are On Fire"
Americans Ask Yourselves, How Long Before They Come and Beat You Down ?
This kid was doing nothing as you will see from the tape
Arbitrary arrest of Glenn Daniels Jr at Occupy Wall Street march in Union Square from Matthew Skomarovsky on Vimeo.
Tell Us Why He Was Arrested ? Glen Daniels Jr is also a victim of the Ryan Brigade. Their heavy handed tactics against any and everyone needs to stop now. People protesting in NYC on Wall St. are there because of the Paul Ryans - and their lack of common sense.
To wrap up, we have one comment for Oscar Contender Paul Ryan
"America hopes you're taking your blood pressure medication Next Election; because after this performance the polls say you will need it"

Cihangir is one of the neighborhoods of the Beyoglu district in Istanbul, Turkey. The neighborhood has many narrow streets, a park, and street cafes. It is located between Taksim Square and Kabatas.
During Byzantine times, the area of the present neighborhood was probably not settled, although there were Byzantine buildings near present-day Tophane and Findikli along the Bosphorus below Cihangir.
During the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent, the area was a forested hunting ground. It was one of the favorite places of Suleiman's son Cihangir, and after Cihangir's death, Suleiman had Mimar Sinan build a wooden mosque there overlooking the Bosphorus. The neighborhood's name comes from this mosque.
In the last half of the nineteenth century, the increasing influx of non-Ottoman Europeans into Istanbul drove up real estate prices in the nearby Pera district in Beyoglu, to which they were officially confined. Some Europeans, however, acquired land in areas outside Pera such as Tophane, Findikli, and Cihangir, leading to a great deal of residential development in those neighborhoods.
Starting in the 1930s, non-Muslim residents of Cihangir and the rest of Beyoglu left or were forced out. They were replaced by Muslims from other Istanbul neighborhoods and by internal migrants from eastern Turkey. As the character of the neighborhood changed, middle-class Muslims also began leaving the neighborhood. By the 1970s, Cihangir was known as a neighborhood where Anatolian migrants lived alongside artists and intellectuals.

"My own nest abroad"
Akif 2 was our home away from home for three weeks. It is in a terrific location with many cafés, restaurants, supermarkets and public transport options. Eight beautifully large windows open to the outside sunshine and enhances the appartment . Karin and her team were terrific, collecting us from the airport (extra) on our first night in Istanbul. We also organised a transfer back to Attaturk airport at the end (extra). Very secure, bedroom and lounge doors with locks if you are over cautious. Watch out for the cat in the window opposite the kitchen window. So much better than the rush and tumble of the Sultan Ahmet side.

Milwaukee music stalwarts join forces on 'Plays Well With Others'
Local electric guitar whiz Greg Koch called in a bunch of favors for the Greg Koch Band's latest album, "Plays Well With Others." Guest contributors range from New Orleans funk musician Jon Cleary to Paul Barrere from acclaimed genre-blending rock band Little Feat to Leonard Cohen's musical director, Roscoe Beck. There's also an appearance from blues guitarist and singer Joe Bonamassa, who is so popular he sold out the 2,500-seat Riverside Theater this year.
But the most important friend on Koch's new album is closer to home: John Sieger, frontman for local Americana band Semi-Twang. "Plays Well With Others" marks the first time these two local music heavyweights, who have 24 albums between them, have joined forces. Koch wrote the bulk of the music, while Sieger handled the lyrics and sang on all the tracks except one. "I got possessive," Sieger said, half-jokingly. They talked about the collaboration in advance of their show Friday night at Summerfest. »Read Full Article

Reports of 'flopping' Lady Gaga Summerfest show 'ridiculous,' says Live Nation exec
Reports of struggling ticket sales for Lady Gaga's upcoming tour--in particular her Summerfest headlining show June 26--have prompted a Live Nation executive to speak out to Billboard about the "ridiculous" claims.
"The run with Gaga over the last two tours has been incredibly successful, and this one is shaping up no differently," Arthur Fogel, chairman of the company's global touring division, producers of Gaga's forthcoming artRave: The ARTPOP Ball tour, told Billboard's Ray Waddell. Fogel added that the 29 North American shows currently on sale have grossed $26 million in ticket revenue, with 80 percent of all tickets for North America and Europe dates already sold. »Read Full Article(2)
