I watched the video.
The white guy behind her should have punched her out.
A broken nose or crushed larynx would have calmed her down.
No one should be allowed to behave like that in public without retribution.
The sheeple college students just sit and laughed and filmed.
They should have stopped the behavior.
I don't mean to be cruel but your understanding of the principles of evolution is an ignorant caricature.
Evolution was taught thousands of years ago by Genesis and explained by the holy Fathers centuries before Darwin.
I have a good acquaintance type friend from Nigeria. She has
shown me some of the magazines they have down there, in English
no less...it shows many white women who are married to
rich powerful black men....my guess is that the LONG GREEN
(i.e. bucks) that is the most attractive color.
"Evolutions message to us all is: youre probably worthless.
Gods message is: For God so loved the world He gave his only begotten Son..."
Beautiful. Perfect. That goes a long way to help understand the differing behaviors of secular folks and Christians.
Wow, what a bunch of crock this editorial is.
Presuming to get into the mind of another human being, let alone one you don't know having an irrational outburst? Talk about your political pandering.
This woman never articulated any of the suppositions this article makes, and is beligerent to everyone around her, including many other black women in the class.
This editorial is worthless. Whether you believe in evolution or not, this editorial is nothing more than political propoganda. Her screaming question of "Tell Me How Evolution Kills Black People" is so rediculous on its fact to try to argue it is because she percieves herself as a loser in lifes lottery because she was born black due to evolution is nonsense.
Someone forgets their meds, and its somehow an example of the evil of this or that... silliness.
excellent point...it can drive one a bit nuts when
someone trys to "dumb-down" evolutionary scenarios so
that people can "believe" in the "truth" of microbes to
man evolution.
I still don't know why orders of magnitude more
complex and energy çonsuming "meisois" developed, when mitosis
works so well, and the mitotic organisms are so successful
at survival(sometimes using bits of DNA from plasmids,viruses,
other bacterial fusion.
no, it is really bad to hate anything as Jesus told us to love our enemies! But I know evolution is a sophisticated type of mind control and I stand against it and I would never subject my children to it's doubt inducing influence! Ever!
Gagdad Bob's insight bears repeating. Indeed, to me, with this observation he nails the "bottom line" epistemic problem of Darwinist theory.
Darwinism holds that Nature uses natural selection to (blindly as it were) produce "better" or fitter species: Species change; they "progress." But absent an absolute standard or criterion of judgment, how can we speak of progress at all? It seems all we really can speak about is directionless change in directionless Nature....
But if Nature is directionless, then where do all its observable regularities come from?
Thanks so very much for the outstanding link, dear Matchett-PI!
This is a brilliant series of inisights, because evolution only makes "sense" in HINDSIGHT — not as it is (supposedly) happening.
At each point of mutation, if there is no intelligence guiding a process, the mutation does not "KNOW" which direction is "better."
Therefore, each step is EQUALLY likely to move in ANY direction — even back from where it came.
Without any intelligence to determine that this pathway is BETTER, the process cannot work.
But that is because each step is SMALLER than people realize. Each step is a very TINY baby step, too small in and of itself to have any evolutionary advantage or disadvantage. Only MANY steps cumulatively can produce a more adaptively succesful or unsuccessful specimen.
This is excellent and deserves emphasis:
kinda killed the rest of anything you had to say after that. it's obvious you have no understanding of the theory of evolution.
It is true that men tend to pursue women they perceive as attractive. It is equally true that women tend to pursue men they perceive as successful. This was going on long before there was ever a "theory of evolution".
Well she certainly reacted in a manner typical of Creationists when confronted with contrary data!!!
I mean the logical quality of her refutation was just amazing, along with her obvious rationality and supreme command of the nature of the evidence and the conclusions one could draw from it!
Excellent insight, Moseley! Indeed, what is it exactly that Darwinist theory actually predicts?
Thank you so very much for your kind words of support!
For the very same reason that Miss Carr understandably hates evolution, shouldn't we all?
What happens if we find out that somebody convinced her she should hate evolution because Darwin is a white guy?
She won't lose mates because she's black, but she will if her normal way of dealing with stuff she doesn't like is flipping out.
There is a right way to oppose evolution. Not going bonkers is the right way.
Liberals live a lifestyle too decadent and selfish to have many kids if they have them at all
Fewer Liberal Children = fewer Liberal genes = fewer Liberals in the future
Do you love evolution with a passion, yet?
But if Nature is directionless, then where do all its observable regularities come from?
Order does not arise from chaos in an unguided physical system. Period.
But as if required as Lewontin says to disallow a "Divine foot in the door" - some would have us believe that life emerged by random happenstance.
But the math does not support it. Self-organizing complexity and cellular automata have guides to the system. Even in chaos theory, there are initial conditions.
And the word "random" - a mathematical term - does not accurately apply to physical systems because the system is unknown and unknowable. Which is to say we cannot know the full number and types of dimensions or fields/particles which have no direct or indirect measurable effect.
For instance, a series of numbers extracted from the extension of pi may appear random if the observer cannot see the calculation even though those numbers are in fact, highly determined by calculating the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.
One has to wonder what makes them think they are so valuable?
Different circumstances, and they would be oven bait.
When arguing they are little different than a rock, then they also argue they can be crushed.
But if life emerged by means of random happenstance, then what can Life possibly mean? Or put yet another way, what value can it have?
Plus there seems to be another difficulty: If everything that exists (including the human mind) is the product of random happenstance, then how can the world be knowable by means of the human mind in the first place? If everything that is, is the result of a random cause, then what is there to know? And by what means can it be known?
It seems to me that Darwinist theory is up to its eyeballs in epistemic difficulties of this nature.
Darwinists seem quite calculating and deliberate in tossing Natural Law theory which principally holds that there is a deep correspondence between the world of Nature and its comprehensibility by the human mind out the window. Or to put it another way, NLT proposes that the logic of the world is the same logic utilized by the human mind seeking to understand the world. Without that correspondence, there is nothing to know and no way to know it.
But this problem rarely seems to catch the attention of Darwinists and other professional atheists. Matter is king; random processes somehow cause matter to create "order" but it's an order that cannot even be thought about really, since in Darwin's theory there is no (non-random) criterion by which the resulting order itself can be evaluated.
As you say, dearest sister in Christ:
... some [e.g., Lewontin, Dawkins, Pinker, Monod, et al] would have us believe that life emerged by random happenstance.Amazingly well-said, indeed! I so agree....
But the math does not support it. Self-organizing complexity and cellular automata have guides to the system. Even in chaos theory, there are initial conditions.
And the word "random" a mathematical term does not accurately apply to physical systems because the system is unknown and unknowable. Which is to say we cannot know the full number and types of dimensions or fields/particles which have no direct or indirect measurable effect.
Thank you ever so much, dearest sister, for your deeply insightful essay/post!
Evolution = abiogenesis?
I think you nailed it.
Men value having a woman who will put up with our nonsense, and who will give us minimal nonsense in return. A woman who is patient with our limitations and appreciative of what we give. The value of such a woman is greater than rubies, as Proverbs 31:10 explains.
Conversely, a woman who is the opposite of that, who does not put up with our foibles, yet expects us to put up with everything she dishes out, is of negative value. We'd rather do without a woman at all than live with such, as in Proverbs 25 "Better to live on a corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife".
A woman who is unwilling to put up with any nonsense should accept that men will not stay with her longer than it takes to unload a deposit of sperm, if even that.
To those who actually know and understand evolutionary theory - genetic diversity is generally understood to be a healthier trait in a species than there being only one "superior" variation.
Humans are stronger as a species for there being human populations adapted to equatorial climates and there being human populations adapted to polar climates.
There is not just one variation of human skin color that is "GOOD" and all others that are "BAD".
That is based upon a total lack of understanding of the actual theory. Which is all too typical of creationists.
The Theory of Evolution is not something to hate, nor something to love. It is just an observation that:
1) Genetic characteristics get propagated from parent to offspring, and
2) Characteristics that improve the survival of descendents are more likely to be propagated than characteristics that impede survival.
Take the example of the peacock, that the professor was starting to get into when the woman flipped out. On the surface, having a large gaudy tail would not seem to be an asset for survival. It takes bodily energy to grow it, it's heavy, cumbersome, and a general handicap to survival. Yet female peacocks select for it in males.
The fact that it's a handicap to the males is precisely WHY females select for it.
Male peacocks to not participate in the raising of their offspring. They just contribute sperm. It's not important how many survive, as long as at least one does per area. But BECAUSE that silly tail is such a handicap, the ones who do survive are the ones with superior strength, energy, and resistance to parasites. These characteristics get passed on to female as well as male offspring. And the whole point of the game is to produce as many superior female offspring which survive to have their own chicks.
Therefore there is no good way for a male to "cheat" by producing lots of testosterone to, for example, grow a magnificent rack of antlers - without an equal and opposite hit on the immune system.
So if a female deer sees those amazing antlers - but the buck looks diseased and sickly - she will take a pass. But if the buck has amazing antlers denoting high testosterone production - AND he has a healthy coat and looks fit as a fiddle - she is going to go for that!
He demonstrated that he had a very healthy immune system - while he was growing an impressive rack of antlers - fueled by testosterone production.
"Peacock is code language for black woman? News to me.
This whole piece is so stupid I urge you to ask the mods to remove it."
The linked piece is an incredibly stupid overreach of inference. Remember, ASSUMPTION IS THE MOTHER OF ALL FOUL-UPS. This woman is mentally ill and could have snapped in an Accounting 101 class and started to rage on about "it doesn't balance". We shouldn't read into the situation anymore than is actually in it—a sad bi-polar breakdown.
Some traits are selected for by the environment and/or mate selection - other traits are selected against by the environment and/or mate selection.
Add to that the fact that mate selection tends to be associative - and you find that short people tend to prefer short mates - tall people tend to prefer tall mates - dark haired people tend to prefer dark haired mates, etc, etc, etc.
People tend to mate associatively for incisor length as well - although I have NEVER said to myself "Have you checked out the incisors on THAT babe?".
So it is not the case that only ONE trait is perceived by potential mates to be superior in all cases.
A short blond male may prefer a short blond female over a tall brunette. I am tall and dark haired and I prefer a tall brunette (in general) to a short blond.
That being the case, how could one say that mate selection determined one female to be superior and the other as a candidate for removal of those characteristics from the human race?
I'll wager that among the people who profess not to believe in evolution I could show them a picture of Janet Reno and get nearly universl agreement that she is not someone they would describe as an attractive woman.
No I don't.
Being attracted to a particular characteristic in a mate is ITSELF an evolutionarily-significant characteristic, which may tend to be passed to offspring. As long as a characteristic is not fatal, there will be a large diversity of characteristics passed along. Thus some of us are tall, some are short, some are dark haired and some are blond. Some are exceptionally fast. Others are very strong.
There is an advantage to a diversity of characteristics in a population. The environment may favor those who thrive in hot weather at the moment. Next year we may start an Ice Age, and cold-tolerant characteristics may be favored.
Also, keep in mind that whatever one's preference in mates, one can only select from among potential mates WHO HAVE SURVIVED to mating age.
To quote the poet Rilke: "a good marriage is one in which each partner appoints the other to be the guardian of his solitude . . ." In other words, a good marriage is one in which each partner enables the other to become truly individual, that is, more reflective of the Divine Essence. And the more truly individual we become, the more we contribute to the redemption of the world.
You're welcome! I agree. :)
What kind of question is that? I mean, what's the equal sign doing in there?
You are trying to draw me into an acknowledgement that Darwinist evolution is about the origin of species, not the origin of Life. Okay. I so acknowledge.
But the problem of origin of Life does not go away: If matter is all that there is, then it must all by itself in some way account for the origin of Life. For we observe that ours is a living universe, or at least one primed for life.
There is a deep "mystery" of an ersatz religious quality embedded in the notion of abiogenesis, a/k/a biopoiesis: How inorganic matter bootstraps itself into organic (i.e., "living") matter.
I do not see rocks bootstrapping themselves into life forms. So on the basis of direct observation, I assume that inorganic matter has no capability to do this.
No wonder you want to make sure that we do not conflate evolution with abiogenesis!
But again, the problem of the origin of Life does not go away, even if Darwinists aren't interested in the problem. How can they be when their own presuppositions entertain only "naturalistic" (i.e., materialistic) explanations?
And yet what kind of a science can biology be, if it refuses to ask the most essential question that ostensibly belongs to a science of Life (biology = study of Life): What is Life itself? And how can we answer that question, if we do not know what the origin of Life is?
Thank you for writing, tacticalogic. Long time no see!
Kind of going off on a tangent here, she was not personally attacked by anyone.
You can't justify her tantrumm as her being personally offended by the theory of evolution itself. It is not the same as someone that has a relationship with her deliberately trying to hurt her and make her feel worthless. One is a theory that is easily objected to without taking it personally as a pointed attack right at you. The other cannot be taken any other way than that.
It shows irrationality and immaturity not to be able to properly distinguish between the two. In short, you do not react to a professor posing a theory you totally object to, and an intimate person you know deliberately attempting to make you feel like garbage. If she can't figure that out, she is not a grown up woman, but a child.
Do you not understand the difference between atheism, and believing that God created life with the ability to evolve? Many people do, and you insult them every time you post something like that.
Of course I do, tacticalogic.
I am a very strong proponent of the idea that "God created life with the ability to evolve."
But still there is a problem: If Darwinists want to promote inorganic matter as the magic genie that alone makes life and consciousness possible, then they have to "bump off God" first.
If I "insult you" by stating the obvious, I am very sorry for your pain....
So would you be a "Darwinist" as well - if you accept that life can (and does) evolve?
Is it possible to accept evolution and NOT be a "Darwinist"?
Is it possible to accept evolution through natural selection of genetic variation and NOT be a "Darwinist"?
Are all "Darwinists", by your definition, also atheists?
You sure seem to think so based upon your previous posts.
And theres the sticker. A totally naturalistic explanation cannot be proposed without bumping off God. Either Mankind and the Universe like Topsy just growed or it is a product of creation and a Creator.
The premise of the argument presented in the article is everyone should hate "evolution", not philosophical naturalism, and your arguments play directly into that. Being a proponent of evolution, I'd think you'd know better.
Genesis 1 and 2 are very clear that the Creation is ever-created and sustained by the Logos of God, Alpha to Omega. That is to say, the Creation was made to evolve in space and time, from its Beginning (origin) to its End (final consummation).
That is to say: I don't need to be a Darwinist to grasp the idea of "evolution."
To your question "Are all 'Darwinists', by your definition, also atheists?" my answer would be: Not necessarily. However, hard-core materialists can probably be reliably placed in that category. Cf.: Dawkins, Lewontin, Pinker, Singer, Monod, et al. (Not to mention their "fan clubs.")
On the contrary, the young lady who objected to what the professor was saying may have been the only person in the room who was not a "philosophical naturalist." I do feel fairly assured that the professor was such, and therefore a Darwinist as well (and thus very likely a materialist; the two just go hand-in-hand, like peanut butter and jelly).
I do not think the young lady's objection was the least bit irrational. It seems she understands the "fundamentals" of Darwinism better than the Darwinists purport to do....
On what evidence? It's also possible somebody convniced her she should hate evolution because Darwin was a white guy.
Indeed: There is no third causal alternative that I can see.
Perhaps if such folks could be disabused of the widely prevailing notion nowadays that faith and reason, science and philosophy (including theology, the "queen of metaphysics") are necessarily mutually-exclusive, basic intellectual sanity could be restored. They are not mutually-exclusive: This notion posits a false dichotomy. What they are instead, are complementary knowledge domains which have been mutually assisting one another for some seven millennia by now.
This I suppose would be news to those people who hold human history in so much contempt that evidently they believe the world only started on the day they were born....

I couldn't find another topic on this and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thought of this but....
What happened to Smallville? The show seems to place Clark as a secondary character this season. I don't know if its just me or what, but Lex/Lana have popped out into the forefront. Clark is now reduced to showing up at the right moment. (At least thats what I've noticed)
I like Lex and all but I'm more interested in seeing the progression of Clark all the way to The Daily Planet and becoming Superman than how Lex and Lana got it on or even the introduction of the JL characters. Don't get me wrong its fun seeing Flash, Aquaman and Green Arrow appear. Its just this season seems so out of place.
I don't know....maybe I'm just a psycho rambling.... =)

This morning I am closing up the house, closing up the bag, and closing up my all too brief sojourn at The Sabine Farm. I leave with a heavy heart, in many ways, since this place is such a peaceful refuge.
Back into the Roman fray I go.
This morning I am closing up the house, closing up the bag, and closing up my all too brief sojourn at The Sabine Farm. I leave with a heavy heart, in many ways, since this place is such a peaceful refuge.
Back into the Roman fray I go.
It's hard not to expect to find the Budweiser Beer Wagon somewhere in the photo.
God speed, Father. I pray that you have a safe journey.
Paene insularum, Sirmio, insularumque
ocelle, quascumque in liquentibus stagnis
marique vasto fert uterque Neptunus,
quam te libenter quamque laetus inviso,
vix mi ipse credens Thyniam atque Bithynos
liquisse campos et videre te in tuto!
o quid solutis est beatius curis,
cum mens onus reponit, ac peregrino
labore fessi venimus larem ad nostrum
desideratoque adquiescimus lecto?
hoc est quod unum est pro laboribus tantis.
salve, o venusta Sirmio, atque ero gaude;
gaudete vosque, o Lydiae lacus undae;
ridete, quidquid est domi cachinnorum.
I know 'tis the wrong time for the sentiment, but I was reminded of this little ode of homecoming. May your travels be safe, and may you keep a bit of such respite with you amid the craziness that is Roma.
Safe travels Padre….
Have a safe trip back to Rome father.
"Laughter and sadness link us with things long past away and remembered without dishonour; and we can see not altogether without tenderness the twilight sinking around the Sabine farm and hear the household gods rejoice when Catullus comes home to Sirmio. Deleta est Carthago."
(G. K. Chesterton, "The Everlasting Man," Part I, Ch. 7: "The War of the Gods and Demons")
Deus caeli det tibi bonum iter et pacem.
Thanks for the greetings from everyone.
Back to the fray, and hopefully to the latest on the m.p.

I have set up a one-page, horizontal scrolling website with several anchors combined with DIV-id's. The website has five pages side-by-side that automatically render full-page based on the visitors browser-window.
The menu contains seven hyperlinks that address different anchors (div-id's) on the page (for example: http://www.url.com/#partsix). When they are clicked, the visitor will automatically be scrolled to the anchor part of the page. This works fine and really smooth.
The problem i'm dealing with is that, since the page is not being reloaded, the address-bar is not updated. So if a visitor wants to link to a page, or, for example, like the URL with a facebook button, it will be very difficult.
Is there a way to rewrite the address bar with the anchorlink without reloading the page?
EDIT: I have found out that i can user the action
onclick="window.location.hash = hash;" on the hyperlinks. This will return the hash of the anchor it is scrolling to in the address bar. Works like a charm. But: my menu plugin does not let me add this action to the hyperlinks. So i wanted to check if i can use javascript to apply this action to all hyperlinks in the same li class. Does anyone know how?
The li class that contains all menu links is 'mc_menu mc_depth_2'

Game Overview
The Witness is a game currently in development at Number None Inc., the studio established by Braid creator Jonathan Blow, for the PlayStation 4, PC, and iOS. The game is designed to be an open world puzzle game. The goal is to set the player on an island with things to do that take no more than 20 seconds of travel to reach. The developers have attempted to create a tight user experience by cutting out anything that isn't necessary but the game is still expected to be around 25 hours in length.
The Witness ius a very vibrant title which utilises a modern cell shading graphics system. A lot of the puzzles revolve around smaller puzzles nestled into larger overarching puzzles.

Vt. farmer charged in drug ring
BURLINGTON A Vermont farmer has been charged in a large marijuana trafficking ring involving drugs that federal officials believe were smuggled across the U.S.-Canadian border.
Kirt Westcom of East Fairfield pleaded not guilty late last week to conspiring to distribute more than 100 kilograms of marijuana.
Westcom, who owns a 140-acre farm, is the fourth man to be charged in the case.
Jeffrey A. Donna, who owns T.J.s Country Store in Montgomery; Roy L. McAllister II, vice president of McAllister Fuels Inc. of Richford; and Jesse J. Soule, a Montgomery dairy farmer, pleaded not guilty on May 29 to marijuana trafficking conspiracy charges.
McAllister and Donna would often drop off marijuana at Westcoms property between 11 p.m. and 2 a.m., a confidential informant told authorities, according to a police affidavit.
Westcom allegedly often hid the pot in hay bales in his barn, the affidavit said.
When the three other suspects were arraigned last month, federal drug agents searched Westcoms home and found evidence of marijuana and a marijuana grow room, court records show.
Law enforcement inquired about his source of supply, and Westcom suggested that he wanted to talk to a lawyer, the affidavit said.
Westcom was arrested on Thursday, the Burlington Free Press reported.
Federal agents alleged the marijuana was smuggled across several spots on the Vermont-Quebec border.MORE IN This Just InBARRE The Raiders built a 13-1 halftime lead before shifting into cruise control Thursday...

The Deal
- $15 for kid's haircut ($25 value)
Shampoo service is an additional $5.
Snip-its Kids Hair Salon & Spa
The interior at Snip-its Kids Hair Salon & Spa looks like a kids' playhouse, highlighted by colorful, floor-to-ceiling murals. Those surroundings are enough to make kids forget that they're getting a haircut, and that's part of the point. Kids enjoy educational video games during haircuts or try services that they're actually excited about, such as manicures and updos. Trained stylists boast safety measures such as safety straps for toddlers, and parents can sit next to children the entire time.
All of the products at the salon are specifically crafted for kids, and there are lots of other touches that go far beyond those old coloring books. This approach has landed the company in publications that range from the Washington Post to LA Parent. Their unique approach also includes themed beauty parties for kids such as Glamour, Trip-to-Hollywood, and Rock Star & Spa, during which youngsters romp through the space wearing costumes and robes and sipping juice boxes.
98% of 203 customers recommend
"Awesome for kids👍👍👍"

Can Congress Fix an Ailing Health-Care System?
The 110th Congress convenes for the first time, and health care may take center stage. New Democratic leaders have high hopes for bills on stem-cell research, and prescription-drug prices for Medicare beneficiaries. Democrats and Republicans discuss health care and what can be done to improve it, in a live broadcast from Capitol Hill.

I really liked your restaurant tips! Eating local food is a great part of travelling :-) The jungle trek sounds like fun, but 3 hours on a raft like that sure sounds like loooong time!
Since you went to Changmai, have you been in Ma Hong Son? There are more jungle activities!
Great pages Virginia. I did a similar trek last year but my bamboo rafting only lasted 30 mins. 3 hours! how did you cope. I might check Libra guesthouse out this summer. Thanks again for very useful tips! jon

Has your heart been broken? Your spirit crushed? Nothing cuts to the core of your soul like rejection. Even death, while devastating, doesn't compare to the pain of knowing you've been abandoned. Rejection chips away your self-image, chisels down your confidence, and leaves you feeling hopeless and unworthy as the horrible message repeats again and again: "You are unwelcome. You are unwanted."
No one can guarantee a life without rejection. In fact, the Bible promises that you will come face-to-face with it. But God also promises eternal and unconditional acceptance. In the midst of your pain, you can know there is One who will never reject you. He's the One who's already suffered the greatest rejection for you. Through Jesus, God has made a way for you to find complete acceptance in Him. He wants you to see yourself as He sees you − as the one He loves and will always welcome with open arms. In Him, you will find true healing and steadfast security.
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6
"When my father and my mother forsake me, Then the Lord will take care of me." Psalm 27:10
"For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:38-39
Your habits characterize your character. If you are a Christian, your calling is to be clothed in the habit of Christ, with the result that your character actually reflects His character.
No matter what you've been through, the enemy loves to distort your thinking with lies about your identity. As a thank-you for your generous gift and continued support … We want you to have June Hunt's dynamic 31-day devotional, Seeing Yourself Through God's Eyes. We pray that this book will help you learn to see yourself as God sees you—deeply loved and totally valued. Day by day God's Word can help you understand His perspective and discover your infinite worth.

At first I thought we'd be breeding cats, selecting the cats with the best show qualities and trying to maintain for genetic risk factors. Then I discovered that the first step any successful breeder should take is to caress the living hell out of the cat. Then I stopped playing because the statement "breed it like your child" suddenly made very, very horrifying sense.

Yi Jianlian may have ended last season with the Dallas Mavericks where he logged 30 starts and just under 3 points per game, but you'd be hard pressed to doubt he still has a lot of game left.
Jianlian's play at the 2012 London Olympics for China was proof enough.
And while the 7-footer envisions himself continuing to play in the NBA, the overseas offers are starting to surface.
The latest reports out of Spain has Real Madrid courting Jianlian with a standing offer already on the table.
If Jianlian opts to play for Real Madrid in Spain's famed ABC League, he would join an impressive team that boasts Rudy Fernandez, Sergio Rodriguez, Jaycee Carol and Marcus Slaughter.
But trying to decide between playing in Europe or entertaining offers from around the NBA is only one of Jianlian's concerns these days.
Word out of China Jianlian is also battling a strained MCL, which ultimately will play a part regardless where he chooses to sign this offseason. He initially injured his knee in London in China's 81-61 loss to Australia. He returned two days later but was not effective in another loss, this time to Brazil -- 5 points and 6 rebounds in 30 minutes of play.
Keep in mind: this is the second knee injury for Yi in less than a year and the former 6th overall pick in the 2007 NBA draft has yet to play more than 66 games in an NBA season.
While China struggled in Group B play going winless in London (0-5), Jianlian did more than carry China's flag during the opening ceremonies. He also shouldered the load on the floor by averaging 14.8 points and 10.2 rebounds per game and put up 30 points and 12 rebounds against Siliver medal winning Spain.
Ironic as it is, Jianlian just might be calling Madrid home by the end of this summer.

Citing a job offer from the Kentucky Department of Education, Owen County School District Superintendent David Raleigh resigned from his post Monday, effective no later than Oct. 12.
Raleigh said he was not immediately interested in the position with KDE.
"I'm happy with the work we're doing in Owen County," Raleigh said during Monday's Owen County Board of Education meeting. "Our students are meeting benchmarks on the ACT and our attendance is up. When I first came here, I said I wanted to approve student achievement and attendance and that's happening."
Raleigh said he would be taking the position of education recovery leader and would be working with the principal and leadership team at Robert Frost Middle School in Louisville.
Raleigh's resignation comes just weeks after the Kentucky Office of Education Accountability released an investigative report critical of some instances of district spending.
"The timing is just coincidental," Raleigh said. "I spent two years trying to make folks feel good about kids and academic achievement. It's all an interpretation, the OEA's investigation was just one of those interpretations. OEA investigations happen all over the state of Kentucky all the time."
In his letter of resignation, Raleigh said he enjoyed his responsibilities as superintendent of the Owen County School District, but was drawn to the challenges of working in lower performing schools and districts which the position with KDE offers.
Raleigh became superintendent just a little over two years ago after the board opted to not renew former superintendent Mark Cleveland's contract.
"When I first came to Owen County, we were at the bottom of the (Ohio Valley Educational Cooperative) region," Raleigh said. "The region is made up of about 13 districts and since then we've moved up about halfway. My hope is that whoever comes in after me will continue to make this a student-centered district. … I hope the community kind of gets past all of the other stuff and supports the next superintendent."
Owen County Board of Education Chairman Stuart Bowling said the board will move on and search for an interim superintendent.
"We'll go back to the process of finding a new superintendent," Bowling said. "...We'll be making some contact hopefully (Tuesday) to see about availability (of an interim superintendent) and to see if there's an interest and we'll check with (Kentucky Department of Education) to seek other names of available interims."
Bowling said he sees Raleigh's motivation to leave the Owen County School District as an opportunity for another professional move.
"I just see it as an upward move," Bowling said.
Owen County Board of Education Vice-Chairman Brett McDonald said he understands Raleigh's decision.
"While the timing is certainly bad to say the least, I've never wanted to stand in the way when individuals have an opportunity to better themselves," McDonald said. "Owen County schools deserves nothing less than a 100 percent commitment from its superintendent. I believe Mr. Raleigh has reached a point that doesn't allow for this commitment any longer. I appreciate all that he's done, and I wish him the best in his future endeavors."
Messages left for board members Dr. Larry Johnson and Terry Patterson were not returned by press time Tuesday.
Board member Kimberly Hunter could not be reached for comment.
Owen County School District Director of Pupil Personnel Charlotte Elkins volunteered to head up a screening committee for the superintendent search, which is required by state law.
The screening committee must consist of two teachers, one board of education member, one principal, one parent and one classified employee.
Prior to appointing a new superintendent, the board must consider the screening committee's recommendations, but is not required to take their recommendation.
James Crawford, attorney for the Owen County School District, said during Monday's meeting that finding a superintendent during this time of the year could be difficult.
"It isn't the best time to be looking for a superintendent the way this falls," Crawford said. "There are better times during the year and this isn't a good time."
The board will meet again at 5:30 p.m., Sept. 24 in the Owen County Elementary School media center.

"Mind-opening, thought-provoking and incredibly timely… An absolutely spectacular read."Cory Doctorow, BoingBoing
A million listeners trust NPR's Brooke Gladstone to guide them through the complexities of the modern media. Bursting onto the page in vivid comics by acclaimed artist Josh Neufeld, this brilliant radio personality guides us through two millennia of media history, debunking the notion that "The Media" is an external force beyond our control and equipping us to be savvy consumers and shapers of the news.
Editorial Reviews
Though the graphic format employed here is often playful and always reader friendly, this analysis of contemporary journalism is as incisive as it is entertaining, while offering a lesson on good citizenship through savvy media consumption.
As co-host of NPR'sOn the Media,radio veteran Gladstone must have gotten a change-of-pace kick out of a project so dependent on visuals in general and her own caricature in particular. She finds an ideal collaborator in artist Neufeld, whoseA.D.: New Orleans After the Deluge(2009) could be categorized as graphic journalism.While the current technological revolution has many claiming that journalism has reached a state of crisis, if not obsolescence, the author takes a longer view, emphasizing not only that "we've been here before," but that"Everything we hate about media today was present at its creation." Instead of wringing her hands over manipulation and distortion, as well as the pesky impossibility of objectivity, Gladstone focuses more of her attention on biases that are institutional rather than ideological.Among them: commercial bias toward "conflict and momentum" (the narrative momentum that attracts readership), the access bias that results in self-censorship, the fairness bias that makes it seem like two sides have equal weight (when there could be many sides). The author also shows how every president eventually considers the press an adversary, and why war reporting tends to be particularly problematic ("Every media bias shows up in war reporting, in spades." Ultimately, she urges a democracy that relies on media to share responsibility "by playing an active role in our media consumption."
While some may see a sign of bias in the author's own media affiliation, this historical analysis of how and why media and society shape each other should prove illuminating for general readers and media practitioners alike.
