The Bethel Regional High School Lady Warriors basketball team went 2-1 this past weekend at the Grace Christian Classic in Anchorage.
The Lady Warriors beat Service high in the first round of the tournament, but fell in overtime to Homer in the second round on Friday.
In that game Bethel jumped out to a 10-5 lead in the first quarter, but four team fouls would plague the Warriors in the second quarter. Neither team scored much after that, as BRHS went into halftime up 12-9.
In the third quarter, Homer came storming back to go up by five points on BRHS.
In the fourth, though, the Lady Warriors started to sink shots, tying Homer 30-30 with two minutes left. Both teams traded leads in the last minutes, before tying it up as the buzzer sounded 35-35.
Homer just edged the Lady Warriors in the extra period, 40-38.
Rebecca Brink led the way for BRHS with 13 points.
On Saturday, the Lady Warriors bounced back in a match against the host team: the Grace Christian Grizzlies.
Grace would jump out to an early lead, up 10-6 in the first, but the Lady Warriors got back into it, going into halftime down just a point, 12-11.
The game was a tight one throughout, with the contest tied up 19 all going into the fourth quarter.
BRHS took a three-point lead with just over five minutes left in the game, but the Grizzlies would hang around.
With less than two minutes left in the contest BRHS' Kayla Williams landed a two pointer to go ahead 25-23 and seal the win for the Lady Warriors.
BRHS' Rianna Joseph led all scorers with 10 points. Rebecca Brink had six points, Marina Crow had four, and Emma Reichard and Kayla Williams had two points each.
Next up for the Lady Warriors is the Christmas Classic Tournament here in Bethel that runs Thursday through Saturday.
BRHS faces Scammon Bay on 6pm this Thursday. That game will be aired live on KYUK at 6pm Thursday.
Also in the tournament are teams from Chefornak, Akiachak, Hooper Bay and Newtok.
The BRHS Boys team will also be in on the action for the Christmas Classic.
Teams from Kalskag, Scammon Bay, Chefornak, Kongiginak, Newtok, Akichak and Hooper Bay matchup at 7:30.

About Blackboard
What is it?
Blackboard is the learning management system (LMS, sometimes also referred to as a course management system) that has been selected by the University of Kentucky. Blackboard provides instructors with a web presence, but does not require them to know web programming.
How can I use it?
Blackboard is an asynchronous teaching tool, meaning that participants do not have to be simultaneously connected.
Common uses of Blackboard include posting course syllabi and content, distributing and collecting assignments, maintaining student grades, and communicating with students. Instructors can use Blackboard to teach hybrid courses (courses that meet in a classroom, or face-to-face, as well as meet online) or distance learning courses (courses that are conducted entirely using the internet and do not meet in a classroom), or as a supplemental tool for a fully face-to-face course. Blackboard can also support a variety of group activities through its collaborative tools, such as discussion boards, blogs, and wiki.
Who can use it?
Blackboard is accessible to all instructors and students in the University of Kentucky community. Instructors and students use their link blue username and password to log into Blackboard.
Where is it?
Blackboard is a web based application and is accessible from anywhere in the world at http://elearning.uky.edu. This enables instructors and students to continue participating in a class regardless of their physical location and can be very useful during inclement weather or if the instructor needs to travel for a conference or off-site research. Students doing field research or clinical practicums can also readily maintain contact, share information, and reflect on their experiences while away.
Blackboard is fully site-licensed by UK, so usage is free for all UK individuals. However, there may be an additional cost for course packs or supplementary materials provided by textbook publishers or other third-party vendors.
Getting Help
For technical support, call the UKIT Service Desk at 218-HELP (4357) or email email@example.com. You can also use the extensive online Guide for instructors, found under Help in the Control Panel of each Blackboard course. Technical support staff in your college or department may also be able to assist you.
For instructional support, including best practices for effective educational use, contact the Center for the Enhancement of Learning and Teaching (CELT) or Distance Learning Programs.

The Best Things
People ask me all the time, "Does it get easier?"
That is a tough question to answer. Physically, without a doubt, parenting becomes easier. Once you are no longer loaded down like pack mule on every outing, baby strapped to your chest, trying to just to keep everyone alive, things inevitably become easier.
Mentally? Emotionally? I think it becomes much more difficult. The answers aren't as clear. Heck, sometimes I don't even know what the question is that I am trying to answer.
Here are five of the things I like best about my kids growing up:
1) They can reach high things for you. Even if they are not teeenagers or taller than you yet, I have not yet met a kid who doesn't relish climbing on the counter to get things out of the overhead cabinets. That makes life easier because I don't have to drag a step stool around.
2) They can carry all the groceries in from the car. This one is probably my favorite. I have often said that if I won the lottery that is what I would pay someone to do– carry my groceries in and put them away.
3) They eat the leftovers. Remember back to the days when you had young kids who were picky and you honestly had no idea how they were even surviving. I have a couple of kids that I think have somehow evolved to photosynthesize. I am here to tell you to have heart, teenage boys eat anything. One day last week I had made muffins. My youngest two ate maybe half of their muffins and left the rest on their plates in a sort of crumbled heap. My 15 yr old son walked by the table, paused and asked, "Do you think they are done with those muffins?"
And then he ate them.
4) You can have actual conversations with them that do not involve cartoon characters, toys, or television shows. And when you, and by you I mean me, stop to listen to them and not try and turn everything into a life lesson, you realize that they are funny, smart people that you probably would have liked to have for a friend when you were their age.
5) You begin to reap all the hard work you have sown. Sometimes it will come upon you in surprising ways. You realize that not only have they have been listening to you, they have been watching you. Some things can't be taught, only caught and there isn't a way to quantify these things. No checklist to check off to make sure they have learned life skills the way that you can check off bike riding, reading, learning to swim. How do you know that you are raising good people?
My 9 yr old was going to sleepaway camp for the first time ever a week ago and he was so nervous. This child is a worrier by nature and so for years I have had to "talk him off the ledge." Last week I overheard his older brothers calming his fears. They had no idea I was listening to them. They had no motivation for being compassionate toward him other than it was what they had been exposed to. Other than it was the right thing to do. It warmed my heart.
Of course, a couple hours later they were fighting and picking on each other unmercifully, so all is still right in the world.
So even at the end of the day, when I am quite sure I am just fumbling around in the dark, clueless, I feel confident that at the very least they will one day grow up to be the sort of people who can put their own groceries away on the high shelves in their houses. And that comforts me.
2 Responses to "The Best Things"
My 14 yo just came home after a month-long string of trips visiting friends and family. I am loving our conversations – she is very interesting and witty, and generally fun to be with.
She has also already made for herself 2 vats of rice, which is her way to to avoid starving to death in a house where everyone else has normal appetites. (Normal *adult* appetites … still she puts us to shame.)
(Also, as a teen, there was nothing I hated more than when my mother came home from the grocery store, because I knew I'd be carrying those groceries from the car. And yes, I have managed to stay that lazy. Somehow the division of labor in our house has evolved so that my husband is the grocery shopper, and he does it while I'm at work. Heh heh.)

Texas Side-Step
Have the Supreme Court's opinions become suggestions in Texas?
Remember Tom Parker? He's the Alabama Supreme Court justice who last year urged his brethren— in an op-ed, no less—to ignore Supreme Court death-penalty precedent (with "precedents" spit out between ironic quotation marks) on the theory that "state supreme court judges should not follow obviously wrong decisions simply because they are 'precedents.' " He urged his colleagues to disregard the Supreme Court's ruling in Roper v. Simmons because it was, in his opinion, "the unconstitutional opinion of five liberal justices on the U.S. Supreme Court."
Well, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals—that state's highest court—has figured out a better way to thwart a clear directive from the U.S. Supreme Court. When the Texas court was instructed, in a 2004 decision about the constitutionality of its jury instructions, to reconsider its approach to its death-penalty cases, the Texas court didn't go the Parker route of name-calling and fomenting revolution. Instead, it just politely thanked the Supremes for their interesting insights, then effectively switched the standard of review and ignored them. You might think the current justices would be hopping mad about that. But the lesson to be learned in Smith v. Texas is that when a lower court wants to appeal a higher court's decision, it need only wait around for a change in personnel.
LaRoyce Smith is not a nice guy, and his guilt is not disputed. In 1991, a jury convicted him of brutally murdering a woman with whom he once worked at a Dallas Taco Bell in the course of an attempted robbery. At his trial, Smith's lawyer introduced mitigating evidence that might have dissuaded the jury from imposing the death penalty. That mitigating evidence included the defendant's age (19), his IQ score of 78, a learning disability, and a family background of violence and drug addiction. But the Texas capital sentencing statute in place at the time made it all but impossible for the jurors to fully consider this mitigating evidence, because jurors were told to respond to two "special issues"—whether the killing was deliberate and whether the killer would be dangerous in the future. If the jurors answered those questions with a "yes," Smith was to die.
So, what were the jurors to do with all that mitigating evidence? They were given a so-called nullification instruction providing that if they found the mitigating evidence outweighed these other issues, they should, in effect, lie and answer one of the special issues with a "no," even if the special issues had been proved. In 2001 in Penry v. Johnson, the Supreme Court (or PenryII) would find that practice unconstitutional. Smith was sentenced to death.
Smith's first appeal was denied by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals in 2004, but the U.S. Supreme Court, in an unsigned per curiam opinion, gave them a good spanking: "[T]he state court ... erroneously relied on a test we never countenanced and now have unequivocally rejected," they wrote, adding that, as in Penry II, "the jury was essentially instructed to return a false answer to a special issue in order to avoid a death sentence." Have another look, said the high court, and the Texas court, upon having another look, said, "No thanks." Or, as Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg puts it this morning, the Texas court told the Supremes, "Thanks, that was very interesting advice but ..."
At this point, a better journalist than I would be able to walk you through the swamp of federal post-conviction habeas-corpus review in a hundred words: leading you around the swamp of "direct" versus "collateral" review; ducking under the vines of "procedural" and "structural" error; all while shielding you from the relentless "caw, caw" of the vicious, swooping "standards of review." But I cannot. Suffice it to say that Texas' CCA found a procedural way around the Supreme Court command in Smith I, its 2004 ruling, and that only one judge on that court dissented, writing, "Our judicial power does not include the power to ... ignore orders from the Supreme Court. ... Reversed means reversed."
Two professors from the University of Texas' Capital Punishment Clinic are representing Smith at oral argument today, and one—Jordan Steiker—rises to defend Smith's honor by defending that of the court: "In your summary reversal, this court held petitioner's mitigating evidence could not be given adequate consideration under the Texas special issues or nullification instructions. On remand, the CCA found the error harmless by concluding the opposite."

Wednesday, April 23, 2014
Mulay Smara was born and raised in the largest refugee camp in the Western Sahara, where his family has lived for more than 34 years after being displaced by a Moroccan takeover of their homeland.
Now a junior at Westminster College, Smara and several of his classmates have developed a project to draw attention to and help ease the plight of his neighbors back home.
Smara, Brianna Mormann, Martin Roa and Sandra Nivyabandi have secured a $10,000 grant from Davis Projects for Peace for their proposed Going Organic in Western Sahara project, but are hoping to raise another $3,000 to help achieve their goal of providing five families living in the Smara refugee camp with an organic garden.
"In the tight-knit community of the camp each garden will feed seven additional families," the group's grant application states. "We hope to improve the quality of life by providing an opportunity for hope through independence and self-sufficient living."
Smara said living in the refugee camp, "there is a lack of everything."
"It's the desert. It's the hottest place, there is no running water, no electricity, no school, no markets, no employment" Smara said. "We rely entirely on human aid — even for clothes."
Because the Smara camp is in Algerian territory, he said the Algerian government provides scholarships for the children of the camp — who spend most of the year away from their families receiving an education that produces little opportunity for advancement.
"No matter how smart or educated you are, there's a high chance you'll end up in the refugee camp, where there are no jobs," Smara said.
Additionally, he said international economic woes in recent years have led to a decline in the humanitarian aid that is so vital to the refugees' existence.
That is part of why the garden project could make such a big impact on the camp.
"For me, growing up, I had a lot of health problems because of nutrition — until the age of 7 or 8 we were lacking in fruits," Smara said. "It also will help having something you own, developing self-sufficiency — people do want to start something that keeps them busy."
The Westminster students have modeled their project after the U.S.-based Not Forgotten International, which has instituted more than 60 organic gardens throughout refugee camps near Tindouf, Algeria.
"We decided it was a great way to keep sustainability," Mormann said. "They've already been proven and there aren't any in this camp."

Supamonks Creates New Animated Spot for EmergenC
Press Release from Passion Pictures
Paris based directors Supamonks have designed and animated a new CG animated spot for the US dietary supplement brand EmergenC. EmergenC comes in multiple flavours, and contains 1000 mg of vitamin C as well as B vitamins, anti oxidants and electrolytes. The campaign was devised by creatives Marjorie Oetting and Jamie Massam from New York based agency Karlen Williams Graybill. It forms part of a new TV and online campaign in the USA based on the concept of personal testimonials about EmergenC.
In "Jessica" a typical US family is going on a road trip. The spot is narrated by the mother Jessica who explains the challenge of keeping up with the children and eating right on the road. But thanks to EmergenC she is able to get through the trip and even the ketchup fiasco. "Don't ask", she says as we see her three energetic children plus family dog creating havoc in the back of the car with traces of ketchup on the car windows. Supamonks says, "Our first task was to develop the characters in a style appropriate to the family the agency created in the script. After that, we were given quite a lot of creative freedom regarding the storytelling and transitions in the film." The spot was created using Autodesk Maya.
Supamonks is a CG animation directing collective and also a CG service company based in Paris and employing around 15 people. They are Florian Landouzy, Julien Bagnol, Zwib Ho, Cedric Ih and Pierre de Cabissole and have trained at French animation school L'Ecole Georges Melies (EESA) and the Sorbonne, and worked in some of the leading Paris animation and post production houses before forming Supamonks in 2007.
The two other films in the campaign were "Kenny" (directed by Bonzom) which was also produced at the Supamonks studio, "Meghann" directed by John Robertson and produced at Passion Pictures in London.

Sampling of emails today about Automatic TLC and other heating oil companies in Ct owned by HOP energy.
Thank you for the great job you have been doing alerting us to the intricate difficulties of the current world. Your articles are always enlightening.
The recent ones concerning Auto/TLC were particularly so. I have been trying to handle my mother's finances for the last several years as she has gradually been overtaken by dementia. Now at the age of 90 we have finally been able to get her into an assisted living facility, an entirely different problem set.
Her oil deliveries was one issue I had not worried about as they have always reliably taken care of deliveries at what seemed like a fair price.
She has been with Auto/TLC since they took over Bantley Oil sometime way back when. (Before I was concerned.) However a mailing received just before your articles tweaked my interest.
I received the delivery ticket for a delivery Jan 15 for $3.19 per gal and and invoice for that same delivery, in a separate envelope, for $3.29 per gal. So I called, and eventually spoke to someone.
She claimed that was the CAP price that was agreed to last March. (I had never heard of that and can find nothing about that program. But sometimes paperwork could disappear when my Mother was getting the mail.)
The representative did agree to drop the price to $3.10 for that delivery, even though she admitted the market price for the day was $2.20. She would not do anything about any refunds for past deliveries.
Two days later I saw your articles, downloaded the Survey, and dug up old delivery bills. The attached spreadsheet is the result from those bills I could find. It appears to represent about half of her bills, perhaps. Still there is $435 difference from the survey price.
I hope this can be of help in your efforts.
I read your article last month regarding Automatic TLC and I am a "Preferred Payment Plan" customer as you described.
I was shocked to verify you were accurate on what I'm beeing charged for oil. I've received 3 deliveries this year and each was at $3.19 per gallon!
At your suggestion I contacted Auto TLC twice for an explanation but they have yet to call back or respond in any way. It's shocking to treat anyone like this in this economy, but especially a loyal 20 year customer.
I haven't decided what to do next, but thought I'd send my information in event you wanted to forward to Richard Blumenthal's office as you indicated.
Sincerely, Rich
Because I was so frightened about the attitude when I called TCL on 1/30/09 and had spoken to a Cheryl,
I called them again on 2/3/09. I was afraid we would receive NO OIL in February. My fears were correct!!!!
I spoke to a Laverna. I asked what the rate was for oil for that day of 2/3/09. She told me $2.30 a gallon.
I told her I had spoken to someone on January 30th, and I asked her what rate I would receive for my next delivery. Obviously information was on my account from my phone call to Cheryl on 1/30/09 because Laverna asked me IF I WANTED TO BE PUT BACK ON automatic delivery.
I could NOT believe they wrote us off JUST LIKE THAT after 36 years with them just because of my phone call asking for a credit for the inflated oil prices on my last deliveries that the articles in the newspaper said to do!!!!!!
My account still has a balance of $698.43 on it that I have paid on a monthly even pay plan. I am reluctant to pay my Feb. 20 th amount of $185.00 to add to that $698.43 total and never see all that money or oil deliveries the way things are panning out.
I would like this addendum forwarded to Attorney General Richard Blumenthal's office to add to my first letter.We are wondering how this is all being handled. Anne

Black chefs use social media to inform community about culinary careers
OULIMATA BA Special to the AmNews | 6/6/2012, 4:48 p.m.
Have you ever discussed careers in cooking with a professional culinary chef via Twitter? Now, those interested in learning more about the cooking industry can do just that, thanks to the African-American culinary magazine Cuisine Noir.
Every month, Chef instructor Kevin Mitchell of the Culinary Institute of Charleston will lead online discussions using Twitter and other forms of social media. Anyone is free to engage Mitchell in conversations about food & dining, and ways to jumpstart their own career as a chef.
These online chats are part of Cuisine Noir Magazine's larger "Where are the black chefs?" discussion- an effort to encourage black people's presence in professional culinary careers.
This is not the first time Cuisine Magazine had a chef host online discussions with its readers. In March, food and wine journalist Maria C. Hunt hosted a twitter chat about her experience in the wine industry, and her new book, "The Bubbly Bar."
"Well, custom cocktails are a trend," Hunt said in a tweet during the discussion, "especially for #weddings. People like to have something all their own."
Chats with Chef Mitchell are usually held the first Wednesday of every month at 6p.m. PST, and 9p.m. EST. For more information about Cuisine Magazine's online chats and events, visit bringthechef.thejstandard.com.

Recently I won a contest on Oiyi's blog!
This lovely package arrived for me last week. It contained a copy of Oiyi's first published design LaReine, a skein of OkayKnits Sawa Sawa yarn in Vermeer and the cutest little sock monkey tape measure made by her friend Tomo. You can purchase them from her Etsy shop here. I would totally recommend getting one or even a few for christmas presents they are VERY well made, I love mine to bits. Thanks Oiyi for the wonderful goodies!
If LaReine has intrigued you, Oiyi's latest design is sure to make its way to the top of your queue. A sneak peek of Kouyou can be seen here. I actually just finished test knitting this design and it was a fun knit!
I hope to have a blocked Kouyou to show you next week once the pattern is released for purchase!

|Raptors CEO to Celtics: 'How's that preseason going?'
|10.22.13 at 5:38 pm ET
Let's just say the Raptors didn't enjoy having a Celtics fan wearing an outdated Ray Allen jersey and naturally double-fisting a couple Molson Goldens at their annual town hall event for season ticket-holders.
"Where's that guy with the Celtics jersey?" said Raptors CEO Tim Leiweke. "How's that preseason going for you?"
Toronto, of course, handed the Celtics two of their seven losses so far this preseason. Ouch. You know it's bad when the Raptors started calling the C's out. [Insert "The Raptors have season-ticket holders?" joke here.]
|Gerald Wallace loves calling out his teammates
|at 5:11 pm ET
After the Celtics lost their sixth game in seven preseason tries, Gerald Wallace wasn't a happy camper.
'We're not playing with effort," Wallace told reporters after Sunday's defeat. "Guys are out there being selfish."
Well, isn't that nice. Despite skipping the introductory press conference upon being traded to the Celtics, reporting last to the team's offseason workouts and then explaining on Media Day, "You never want to go to a team that's starting a rebuilding process," Wallace actually cares about the C's performance this season. By all accounts, he's a "110 percent" guy, offering Kevin Garnett-esque effort regardless of practice, preseason or actual NBA action.
As such, he's comfortable questioning anybody's lack of effort. Of course, that works when your an established Hall of Famer on a title contender. It may not go over so well when you rip a young team adjusting to a new coach.
I enjoyed Wallace's explanation Tuesday: 'It's nothing critical toward my teammates. It's for the whole team." Well, then, that's better. It's not just one or two guys. It's everyone. Except Wallace. And apparently Jeff Green?
|NBA GMs: Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce trade a good idea
|at 3:03 pm ET
For the 12th straight preseason, the NBA surveyed all 30 general managers. Here are the Celtics-related results.
- While the Celtics-Nets trade tied with Golden State's sign-and-trade acquisition of Andre Iguodala as the most surprising summer story lines, the C's were among six teams receiving votes for "best overall moves."
- A quarter of responding GMs believe Kelly Olynyk is the draft's biggest steal — ahead of Ben McLemore, Nerlens Noel, Steven Adams, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Trey Burke. Likewise, 6.7 percent of the respondents think the Celtics rookie will be the draft's best player in 2018. Only Victor Oladipo (40.0%), Cody Zeller (13.3%), Anthony Bennett (10.0%) and McLemore (10.0%) received more votes.
- Based on the GM votes, Avery Bradley, Kawhi Leonard and Iguodala are tied for the league's fourth-best perimeter defense, trailing only Tony Allen, LeBron James and Paul George.
- Voters slot Rajon Rondo and Ricky Rubio second behind Chris Paul on the "best passer" scale. Paul also has the game's best IQ, per votes, ahead of Steve Nash, Tim Duncan, LeBron, Kobe Bryant and Rondo.
Also, consider former Celtics center Robert Parish among fans of trading Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett.
'I thought they made a great move because Garnett and Pierce only have another year or two of premium basketball left,' he told the Boston Herald. '[Celtics president of basketball operations] Danny [Ainge] just pulled the plug while they still had something. It was inevitable. And, besides, I like the fact that when he moved them, he sent them to a contender. I really like that. Granted, they're in the same division, but still I really like that it showed how he felt about Paul and Garnett. I like that.
'As a player, you're thinking, if you're going to move me, at least send me somewhere where I can win a championship.'
|Bill Russell took different route than Wesley Snipes
|10.21.13 at 10:54 am ET
Celtics legend Bill Russell issued an apology through The Boston Globe following his arrest for carrying a loaded .38 caliber Smith & Wesson handgun in his carry-on luggage when attempting to board a flight from his adopted home of Seattle to Boston, where he is scheduled to be honored with a statue at City Hall Plaza on Nov. 1.
'Before boarding my flight from Seattle to Boston, I had accidentally left a legal firearm in my bag. I apologize and truly regret the mistake,' he said. 'I was issued a citation by the TSA, whose agents couldn't have been more thorough and professional when dealing with this. I really appreciate their efforts to keep air travel safe.'
Probably a lot smarter than the Wesley Snipes route: "My instincts are to wax your ass all over this floor!"
|Danny Ainge wanted Jimmy Chitwood role in Hoosiers
|10.18.13 at 1:08 pm ET
It's almost impossible for the 1986 Celtics season to have been any better, but just imagine if they had Jimmy Chitwood on the roster as "Hoosiers" hit theaters that year. If Danny Ainge had his way, it would've happened.
"I loved the Boston Celtics," Maris Valainis, the actor who played the iconic character, told the Beats & Eats podcast. "I remember we actually got to go to a preseason game when they were playing the Pacers. We were just getting started filming, the game was over and Danny Ainge was running off the court. We were kind of courtside, and he looks at me and pointed at me, and he goes, 'I'm going to take your spot in the movie.'"
Seriously, just think of the added entertainment value of having Jimmy Chitwood calling the shots in the C's front office. In 2010-11, they would have had Chitwood, Jesus Shuttlesworth and Neon Boudeaux all under one roof. All they would have needed was Scott Howard and Billy Hoyle for the greatest pickup game in basketball history.
Or, if Kobe Bryant hadn't turned down the "He Got Game" role as he claimed to Sports Illustrated in the latest from the great Lee Jenkins, those 2008 and 2010 NBA Finals would have pitted Chitwood's Celtics against Shuttlesworth's Lakers. And my money's always on Chitwood.
Then again, even Ainge might not have made that final shot in one take as Valainis did. You can listen to the edited 1:13 clip here and hear the complete 37-minute podcast interview here.
|Kevin Garnett's camouflage capris could be yours
|10.17.13 at 3:00 pm ET
In classic Kevin Garnett fashion, he didn't even pack his clothes when he got traded from the Celtics. Just up and left. Probably showed up in Brooklyn with a pair of mesh shorts, a basketball and a scarf. Oh, those scarves.
Those scarves might be yours at SportsWorld, the local memorabilia shop charged with selling KG's wardrobe for $50 an item. Of course, you could have his Concord home, too, but that $4.85 million price tag is a little steep.
Besides, think of all his memorable duds. That Gino t-shirt. The suits he wore for his introductory press conference, the ESPYs and yelling at Ben Gordon. That Hawaiian shirt. His professor jacket. Anyone for tennis attire? A feather boa. DJ Lance Rock costume. Camouflage capri pants. All those v-neck sweaters. And cardigans. And the Mr. Rogers look. All amazing. All potentially up for grabs.
Something tells me the fire sale doesn't include his $2,000 chrome heart hipster glasses, five-figure diamond earrings or six-figure Aire's Traveler watch, but I call the frying pan he used to make those famous tortillas.
|LeBron James doesn't get free agency vs. trades
|at 1:12 pm ET
Apparently, LeBron James thinks leaving for free agency is the same as being traded, since he's equating Ray Allen's defection to Miami to the trade that shipped Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett to Brooklyn.
"There were a couple guys who basically [expletive] on Ray for leaving, and now they're leaving," the four-time NBA MVP told ESPN.com. "That's the nature of our business, man. I don't know what Boston was going through at the end of the day. I know Ray had to make the best decision for him and his family and his career. Doc [Rivers], KG and Paul did that as well. You can't criticize someone who does something that's best for their family."
Dwyane Wade said something similar, albeit more confusing. "People say things about people when they do something when they themselves would do the same thing. It's about putting yourself in the best situation, and at the end of the day we all do that. You can't really say anything about someone that does it for themselves."
This whole things stems from Pierce's failure to forgive Allen and KG's "I don't have Ray's number anymore" comments. Rivers also chastised Allen for leaving, so I understand calling him out for wanting out of Boston, but given their druthers Pierce and Garnett would still be playing for the Celtics. The former wanted to retire a Celtic, and the latter wanted to retire if he wasn't going to be a Celtic. They reluctantly accepted a trade to the Nets.
That's different than choosing the Heat in free agency. Allen made a conscious decision to leave Pierce and Garnett last season. Pierce and Garnett were going to be separated against their will this year. But I don't expect LeBron to understand that, since he's basically still defending himself taking an expletive on Cleveland.
Next thing you're going to tell me Dwight Howard wanted the Magic to retire his number.

I don't speak German so the first time I watched this video I assumed the bench was for sale and the narrator was saying something like "whatever you build on this bench will be a piece of garbage—compared to the bench itself". It turns out the bench is not for sale but the plans for it are, which means whatever you build on this bench will likely be as good (or bad) as the bench, since you built the bench yourself.

workplaces that value individuality, however, more and more law firms
are creating attractive environments where diverse attorneys stay, grow
and advance to the partnership level. Some of the leading firms' best
practices include:
•Developing pipeline programs. Law firms are collaborating with
state and local bar associations to promote the profession and provide
law-school scholarships to financially assist needy students.
Mark D. Wasserman
Diversity plays a leading role at Sutherland
Asbill & Brennan and helps the firm to better compete and serve its clients.
"We believe that diverse skills, knowledge and viewpoints make us a stronger,
more productive firm," says Mark D.
Wasserman, Managing Partner.
Sutherland has successfully promoted
inclusivity because of a firmwide commitment that extends from its partners to its
Executive Committee and is overseen by a
28-member Diversity Committee chaired by partner Allegra Lawrence-Hardy. The firm also has a formal diversity plan with support staff,
overseen by Diversity Director Cheryl Lomax. The plan's goals are reviewed annually for compliance. Sutherland's Diversity Committee
and its Diversity Director are aided by Director of Professional Development Kristy Weathers, who works on retention and advancement,
including Sutherland's mentoring and training programs.
"We believe that obtaining and maintaining a diverse firm must
come from a holistic approach that involves everyone and every part
of the firm, including recruiting, professional development, associate
life and partner development," explains Wasserman, who serves on
the Diversity Committee.
The firm is proactive in diverse attorney recruitment. It participates
in diversity-oriented job fairs, including the Southeastern Minority
Job Fair and the Lavender Law Conference, and conducts on-campus
interviews at Howard University School of Law. Sutherland also works
closely with law school administrators as well as student organizations,
such as the Black Law Students Association (BLSA).
Diversity not only helps Sutherland to compete, but it benefits its
clients. "We at Sutherland understand that diversity enhances our
value to clients by allowing us to staff our client teams with professionals
who possess broad experiences and perspectives," Wasserman says.
The firm is also helping the profession to become more diverse.
Sutherland has been involved in the Lawyers Committee for Civil
Rights Under Law and the American Bar Association's Task Force on
Minorities in the Law. It has also participated in professional groups
that foster diversity and is a founding member of the Atlanta Large
Law Firm Diversity Alliance. "Sutherland is committed to promoting
diversity within the firm and in the legal profession," Wasserman says.

you left me with a bitter taste in my mouth
and a pulsing darkness in my chest.
And that darkness, it consumed me whole,
leaving no traces of the person
I once was.
I wish that I could shed my skin
because each and every cell in my body knows
what your touches feel like,
and how your skin tastes.
But to me, you now taste bitter.
And every time I look at you,
all I can hear is those three words
you liked to hide behind,
that rolled out of your lips so smoothly.
I should have known then,
I've always stumbled over mine
before you stole them
off my tongue.
And I cannot say I hate you,
there is just this enormous
- void
inside of me, that is filled
with nothing
but utter disappointment and
a hollow
- echo
- of your
- name.

Have you ever noticed that the more stuff we have, the more time we seem to spend managing it? This is particularly true with high tech gadgets.
Got a home computer? Great, now it's time to get a laptop, then a Blackberry, then an iPhone, and so it goes. If you have a business, you do the same thing (only with more expensive equipment like servers and computer networks). This is simply what it takes to stay connected and have access to all our information instantly at home, at work, and on the go.
Now that you have all these devices, how do you share information between them? Manually reentering your contacts from your computer into your phone is time consuming and frustrating. Backing up files and transferring them from your laptop to your desktop and vice versa can be done with a flash drive, but doing this every day is a bore. Setting up and maintaining a computer network is challenging and expensive. It can also pose a security risk for your data if you aren't tech savvy.
Pulling It All Together
What if you could have access to everything you need without all these extra steps? That's possible with a cloud computing infrastructure. At its most basic level, cloud computing works kind of like a water utility company. Instead of everyone having a well in their backyard, we're all hooked up to a central reservoir. We can go anywhere there is a faucet and turn it on to get fresh, clean water. With cloud computing solutions, you have access to all of your applications and data from any internet capable device.
Here's just a sampling of the kind of activities you can enjoy when you enter the cloud:
- Check for messages and manage your contacts with Gmail
- Sync your calendar with those of friends and family members with Google Calendar
- Share photos on Flickr
- Post a blog update on TypePad
- Stay on top of the latest news with Google Reader
- Add items to your Amazon wish list so people can buy you more gadgets!
Plenty of business tools are available in the cloud as well. These include applications such as Google Docs, Google Talk, Salesforce, Web TimeSheet, and Engage B2B.
Keeping It Simple - and Cheap
Cloud computing is about more than just convenience. It's also cost effective. You don't have to pay a tech to set it up (or learn how yourself). There is no investment in network hardware or expensive bandwidth. Upgrades are handled automatically behind the scenes. Security isn't your problem either (just pick a vendor who already has a good handle on this and you'll be fine). You only pay for what you use; so you can scale up or back whenever you need to. Best of all, getting started is almost as easy as...turning on that water faucet.
So, now that you know how much cushier life can be in the cloud, why not come up here and join me? :-)

The Army's 57th Medical Company helped save hundreds of thousands of lives in wars and hurricanes.
Now, it's disbanding. The 57th is being spread among other units as part of the Pentagon's military reorganization plan.
The company's Huey helicopters evacuated more than 100-thousand casualties in Vietnam alone. In Iraq, the 57th evacuated more than 45-hundred troops, Iraqi civilians and U-S contractors.
The unit also played a major role after devastating hurricanes Fran, Floyd and Katrina.
A disbanding ceremony held yesterday was bittersweet for company veterans. Vietnam veterans mixed with Grenada and Desert Storm vets, as well as men and women of the unit who are just back from their second tour of duty in Iraq.

The cost of nursing home, assisted living and adult day care costs all rose in 2010 from 2009, according to MetLife Mature Market Institute's annual survey, released today. The numbers here are enough to send most people's retirement planning into a tailspin.
Key findings includ:
- The national average daily rate for a private room in a nursing home is $229 or $83,585 annually, while a semi-private room is $205 or $74,825 annually, up from $219 and $198 respectively in 2009. The lowest rates are in Louisiana and Texas; the highest rates are in Alaska, where it costs $687 for a private room and $610 for a semi-private room.
- The national average monthly base rate in an assisted living community rose from $3,131 in 2009 to $3,293 or $39,516 annually in 2010.
- Staying at home and having someone care for you continued to be the most cost-effective approach. The national average hourly rate for home health aides is $21, while homemakers average $19. The daily rate for adult day services was $67. All of these rates were unchanged from 2009.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2009, 68 percent of nursing-home residents were women. The median age of residents was 83 years, with only 16 percent younger than 65. The average length of their stay was 2.4 years. If you multiply the average cost by the average length of stay, you get $173,448 -- more money than most people can spend.
If you're healthier, you might opt for an assisted-living residence. MetLife calculates that nearly 1 million people live in approximately 39,500 assisted living facilities in the U.S. The average age of an assisted-living resident is 86.9 years old, and the median length of stay in assisted living is also 2.4 years. The average cost multiplied by the average length of stay is a more reasonable $94,838.
The cost of hiring a home health care aide to provide 24-hour care rivals the cost of a nursing home at $504 per day. Multiplied by the 2.4-year average need, that's $441,504, a staggering amount of money. But, of course, many people figure out how to get by with much less.
No matter how you manage long-term care, these are big numbers and most of us would be hard-pressed to pay them without help. Long-term care insurance is obviously worth considering. Aging and illness are almost an inevitable part of retirement. Being prepared to cope is important.

As many of you know, SD is Spencer Datt. I asked Spencer's sister to marry me on April 14th and she actually said yes. We had a great family celebration back in DC the weekend of April 15th with her parents and brothers who flew in from college. Spencer was killed exactly 1 month later in a car accident.
In addition to the pain of losing someone who was such a wonderful and sweet spirit, there has also been the pain of unfulfilled potential. Spencer just started rapping a few months before he was killed. The first beat I ever heard him rhyme on was "6ft 7″. As it turned out he was a natural, improving on every one of the freestyles he recorded.
Seeing as Spencer was a HUGE J Cole fan and his last name being Datt– he had to rhyme on "Who Dat" which he planned on making a fun family song with his brother Conor ("I'm rhymin with CD you would think I'm in stores"). Even my fiance wanted to get on the song. Immediately after hearing Spenc's verse, though, I told my girl that she could not jump on the song with him, becaue he was actually spitting some serious heat that was not to be made into a joke.
So when Spencer died I thought it would be incredibly cool to get Spencer on a song with Cole who he loved so much. I told Cole the situation and he said he would be honored to be on it. You have to know this about Spencer. He wasn't just a fan of music. He promoted who he loved to all of his friends. There are countless people who are now fans of J Cole or Lupe Fiasco because of Spencer's passion for their music. Then of course there is Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino.
I had reached out to Donald Glover right after Spencer died just to tell him how much Spencer loved him and that I was going to start playing his music on the show and I wanted him to know it's all because Spencer put me on to him. He was truly touched and asked to hear a bit more about Spencer. So I told him.
As I was wrapping the mixtape I thought about Donald being on Rock the Bells etc and how we had been planning to meet up and I thought to send him "Who Datt Pt 2″ . He wrote to it the night I sent it and returned his verse within an hour. The result is Spencer on a posse cut with two of his favorites and in my opinion — Spencer holds his own.
Rest in Peace Spencer. Who Datt!

Youve just won a contest you dont even remember entering! You got a letter in the mail explaining everything and a cashiers check to cover all the taxes and fees. All you have to do is deposit the check and wire some or all of the money back to the sender to pay for the taxes and fees. Once they receive your payment, youre guaranteed to get the rest of your prize.
The catch this is a scam.
The check, as convincing as it looks, is counterfeit. The entire contest angle is a scheme to get you to wire money to someone you dont know. If you deposit the check and wire the money, your bank will soon notify you that the check is counterfeit. And youre out the money because money you wire cannot be retrieved, and youre responsible for the checks you deposit even if you dont know they are fake. This is just one example of a counterfeit check scam.
Even though the thought of winning money is tempting, it really is better to be safe than sorry. The following are some 'red flags' that could give you hints that the transaction is not real.
- You're asked wire money to someone you don't know.
- You've never had any association with the sender.
- You're asked to keep this transaction confidential until after you wire the money.
- You're instructed to call the sender with your bank account information.
It all boils down to the old adage - if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

Fraudsters are becoming more and more creative. Recently, there have been reports of telephone tech support scammers calling and claiming to be from a technical support company. They may insist that you purchase software or services from their company or give them control of your computer so they might install or scan your computer. Once a fraudster has your personal information and/or access to your computer, both your personal identity and your computer are at risk.
To help protect yourself from scams like this do not purchase any software or services from an unsolicited caller. NEVER give control of your computer to a third party unless you can confirm without a doubt that it is a legitimate representative of a company with whom you are already a customer.
If you think you may already have been a victim of this type of scam, it is important to change your passwords. There are also free resources you can utilize to scan your computer for malware and other harmful programs that may have been downloaded to your computer.
More information about this and other types of scams can be found at http://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0076-phone-scams .
Citizens State Bank takes the security of your debit card very seriously. Thats why when CSB was notified that some of our cardholders may have been involved in the recent data breaches at major national retailers, CSB took immediate action to replace any cards which may have been involved. Other behind the scenes actions were also taken to ensure the safety of our customers accounts.
Every CSB Debit Card is protected by a program called Shazam Falcon. Falcon is a state-of-the-art program used to analyze specific factors about each transaction and rate the transaction on the likelihood of being fraudulent. When high-risk transactions occur, Falcon will automatically decline those transactions. A Shazam Fraud Specialist will notify you that a potentially fraudulent transaction has been detected and provide you with the details. If the detected transaction is legitimate, the details will be made part of your card profile for future approval.
Keeping track of new fraud scams and adapting quickly is one of the most effective ways to combat fraud. The success of this program relies heavily on the ability to make contact with cardholders. Thats why it is extremely important that Citizens State Bank has up to date contact information for you, such as cell phone numbers.
Other tips to help protect yourself from identity theft include;
1. Never give your personal information to people that you dont know and trust.
2. Dont be taken in by e-mail phishing scams asking for your personal or financial information.
3. Know who you are dealing with before providing personal information to mail order, telephone, or internet merchants.
4. Keep your passwords secure and always shred documents containing sensitive information.
5. Review your bank statement monthly and your credit report annually.

On April 11, 1911 the Citizens State Bank was started by A. A. Tony Griffiths. The bank opened in Gridley, Kansas, in the present-day Gridley City Hall building.

Since then, Citizens State Bank has grown to nine locations.

Capacity Valuation
CornerStone advises customers on capacity value by assessing supply and demand on region-wide as well as locational basis, likely capacity additions and retirements, and potential capacity market regulation changes. This analysis includes an understanding of the supply and demand structure inherent in each ISO; a strong background in development in order to assess the probability of new plant additions; an understanding of the revenue requirements to support new generation and financial modeling to distill the data into a $/kW capacity price by time increment. CornerStone has applied this analysis to capacity markets wherever they exist in the U.S.
Electric Market Studies and Dispatch Modeling
CornerStone performs market analyses which provide a macro-level overview of regional markets, and which help to determine the economics of new capacity or the expected future spot prices of electricity and fuel. In addition, the CornerStone team possesses nonpareil expertise in building, integrating, and maintaining industry leading dispatch models to assist in: optimizing daily generation dispatch, asset valuation, and energy and FTR trading operations.
Energy Price Forecasting
CornerStone projects energy prices based on fundamental dispatch modeling as well as historical price relationships. Energy pricing is projected for the market average as well as for specific trading nodes or delivery points within each market. The modeling includes proprietary inputs for the operating characteristics of each generating unit, such as heat rate, emissions rates and variable O&M cost. This fundamental analysis is supported by a historical pricing database that CornerStone maintains for every reported node in each ISO. These energy price forecasts are utilized to project power plant revenue for power plant acquisition and development; assess PPA price competitiveness; assess congestion; and evaluate the financial value and price impact of new transmission lines and generating capacity.
Volatility and Option Value
CornerStone advises clients on volatility and option value, both in projecting energy pricing as well as valuing assets. We apply volatility analysis to enhance the accuracy and usefulness of fundamental energy and congestion pricing models. This volatility analysis can be specific to the node or the ISO and based on the specific project (e.g., long-term asset valuation, on-peak day trading). CornerStone also values real options inherent in the power industry including option value of: fuel switching, output mix (e.g., electricity versus syn-gas), operational flexibility and environmental technology. CornerStone applies volatility and option value to assist clients in valuing assets, making capital expenditure decisions, financing, entering into PPAs, and trading energy.

Have a lovely Sambucca -Black Lace growing in a border. I want to move it to a different location but don't want to damage it. It is about 2" tall and 2" wide and it's presently showing new growth. Can it be moved and if so, when's the best time?
Thanks in advance.
Autumn is the best time to move shrubs and trees.
I've just moved mine from a large pot into a bed and it seems to be coping ok. I managed to move it intact with all roots compost etc and I'm making sure to keep it watered. There are no side effects so far, for me.
my advice would be to wait until autumn when you can cut all the branches down to the base, this will make it easier to dig up and handle . I think it may not like being moved at the moment and could end up looking quite limp
Prepare the new place before hand and water in well.
Potted trees can be planted at any time of the year, but for those in the ground wait until late autumn when the leaves drop and it goes dormant for the winter before moving them.
Thanks everyone. I'll leave well alone til autumn.
