ALF - question about HOH
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 8:15 AM ESTHi Misslily. I didn't experience hearing loss until about 3-5 years ago. I got a really bad sinus infection that went improperly diagnosed and treated for about 5 months when I was in my early 30s. I then developed tinnitus. The hearing loss came on after that - or it may have come at the same time but it wasn't diagnosed till then. And I was distracted by the constant ringing so I didn't notice right away. ;-) I have hearing tests every year. The most recent was about 3-4 months ago. I had an MRI last year to make sure that there was no additional problem. There's not, but I have very mild hearing loss in both ears [it was just one until this year]. It only impacts the spoken word, esp when there is background noise or when a man w/ a deeper voice or who is soft spoken is talking. It's at specific decibels.
I have been given pamphlets for hearing aids. I'm actually teleworking today b/c of snow so I just ran into the kitchen to get the pamphlet that I have stuck to the bulletin board. I'm not ready to make the plunge just yet [though I'm reconsidering based on my business trip last week]. The aids that I was interested in were by ReSound. I liked the ReSound Live 7-BTE model b/c you could adjust it as needed. The be by Resound and the dot [squared - it's a raised 2 but I can't type that here] were also pretty small but are automatic. They also have custom models. The estimate I got was $5k for both ears. I don't know how much would be covered by insurance b/c I haven't gotten to the point where I'm ready to take the plunge. I think that point is coming soon. Anyway, the website is www.resound.com.
Strangely enough, I am super bothered by loud noises. I carry ear plugs to wear at the movies and at the gym. I can't use ear buds, but have been told by the audiologist that ear phones are okay.
I hope this helps!

Both my sister and I have mild/moderate hearing loss since birth. I recommend that you continue to have them wear hearing aids through the school years. Once they are adults they can decide is they want to continue wearing them. My mother was very relax about it, so I did not wear them all the time. So, I ended up having a lot of speech and writing problems. Which I'm sure you can tell by my writing skills.
My sister and I were born 8 years a part and when I was born there was not a lot a resources to help us. By the time my sister came the city of peabody school system did a better job helping kids with hearing loss. Though, I still feel there is still a lot that has to be done to educate people about hearing loss.
I know that I was assigned a speech-language pathologist and she was there for me through out my school years. I will talk to mom tonight and get you more information.
For a good support system chech this link out.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 9:40 AM ESTMiss Lily, my grandmother also lost her hearing [it was considered profound hearing loss] in her 40s [or so] due to a reaction to penicillin [why no one initially told me this was the reason I don't know - I was given penicilin for my sinus infection and had an allergic reaction, so this could have been the source of my hearing loss]. She learned to lip read on her own, though she also used a hearing aid and had a CCTV device.
One of the reasons I'm hesitant to get a hearing aid is b/c of the driving issue. I don't know whether I'll have to give up a license; my grandmother had to. Not driving is not an option for me. My hearing is 'fine' other than for certain levels speech. I'm sure I'm freaking about nothing, but don't want to take the chance. If an audiologist has told you that your children need hearing aids during their formative years, I would go w/ what they recommend. GL.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 10:42 AM ESTLily, as a classroom teacher I have worked with children with hearing loss. Right now I have a student who has mild hearing loss and I wear an FM system to make sure that the student can hear me amongst the background noise and a large classroom. This student socially fits in and the children hardly notice that he has hearing aids. He goes to speech a few times a week. He is doing very well in kindergarten, right up there with the other students academically. You would not know that he is hearing impaired from the way he talks or his speech. I know every case is different, but wanted to let you know for the future that children with mild hearing loss can "fit in" in a classroom and still learn and make academic gains just like any child w/o hearing loss.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 10:43 AM ESTmisslily - are your twins in Early Intervention?
If not, you should get them in right away - they would qualify because of the HL. They will have a speech person and teacher of the deaf out to your house hopefully weekly.
Also, they will help you with the transition to school when they turn 3 - making sure that your twins get everything that they need.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 11:16 AM ESTThanks everyone. I haven't used EI yet - I've been taking them to Mass Eye & Ear monthly to see the speech pathologist. I'm thinking of switching to EI just because I think it will be easier.
My biggest problem is my DH. He worries so much that they will be teased or bullied when they get to school. He hates having them wear their aids - so I have them wear them mostly when he's at work. I know they should wear them all the time, and I'm working on him to realize how important this is.
It's hard because the aids are a choking hazard so I have to watch them like a hawk. Right now they wear bonnets (which they hate) when they wear their aids, but I'm told I can transition out of that in a few months. Hopefully that will make it easier for all of us. I'm told eventually they stop pulling them out and just "put them in a go". I hope so. I makes me profoundly sad to know that my beautiful children are going to have to deal with this for the rest of their lives. Thank heavens that they dohave a lot of hearing. As I said, if you met them, you'd never know. They answer to their names, turn when they hear noises, can find a book if I start reciting the words. Receptively I'm told that they are right on track - so that's helpful in making me feel a little better about it.
And I know that they will qualify for an FM system when they get to school.
BTW - Alf - my mom has hearing aids that she got a few years ago and she's still driving. I can't imagine why you would have to give up your license. Besides - the aids would help you hear things like sirens and horns - right?

Tomara - thanks for writing in. It's helpful to hear everyone's stories.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 11:32 AM ESTI know, misslily. I realize I'm probably freaking for nothing. My grandmother did have to give up her license, but that was in the 60s. I hope you can bring your DH around to your way of thinking re the kids wearing their aids.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 11:47 AM ESTMisslily - Just so you know where I am coming from, I am an SLP who works for early intervention and in the schools. I have worked with many families who have gone through situations similar to yours and I (try) to understand as best I can how difficult it is for a family.
I don't know what town you live in (or if you want to reveal that at all) but I do know that the EI program I work for has a wonderful reputation for working with children with all types of HL. They usually have a social worker involved to help with worries and challenges that families face. In addition, they have support groups specifically for families with HL. I don't know if you are looking, but Emerson College also has a wonderful program and as part of it has a support group for parents.
It seems like your LOs have a great foundation and have a lot working for them! Also, with so much new technology, HAs are coming a long way and are getting smaller and smaller so that other people barely notice them.
I know that this phase is so hard with the kids pulling them out, but believe me, once they realize the benefits of the HAs and make the connection that they need them on to hear better - they won't want to take them off!
If you have any questions, or want to pick my brain, please do. You can also message me if that is easier. There is a lot of help out there - for free - which can make it even easier for you and your family.
I hope that this information is helpful and if it's not, or I'm saying too much, please let me know.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 12:39 PM ESTBostonslp - thanks so much. It's really helpful.
I live in a nice town west of Boston that has a good reputation for schools and education so I'm sure they will be well taken care of when the time comes.
Sometimes I simply despair that my beautiful babies have this problem. Then I think about how much worse it could be. But i wouldn't wish this on anyone. It's so hard right now - I worry about them learning to speak properly. They are at home with me and we read a lot (they love books) I sing to them all the time and try to talk up a storm. I basically narrate my day as we go along. "Mommy is folding laundry." "Cup - here is your cup. do you want more milk?" stuff like that.
MEEI has been taking great care of us. They have a program that allows us to "rent" the aids until they are 3 years old. If they break or lose them, MEEI will simply replace them for me. And they help me with the speech issues and try and give tips to make the wearing of the aids easier.
I have been told that eventually they "get it" and actually want to wear them. I'm starting to see signs of that. My DS has cried every day this week when I've taken them out for nap time. Of course he cries when I put them in too - but I think that's because he hates the bonnet. But without the bonnet, they do tend to pull them out and PUT THEM IN THEIR MOUTHS instantly. (sigh)
Both DH and I worry that they will be teased or worse at school. It was nice to hear from the teacher who said her student is doing well. Their aids are small and in the case of DD her hair covers them already.
It's just hard - having children who have a problem that I can't fix. They will never get better - and of course they could get worse. I shouldn't complain - they are beautiful, I think they are fairly smart, they are curious, funny and fun. And some days I think "oh it's no big deal - they'll be fine." Other days I think "Oh cr@p - why oh why did this happen?"
I am going to get them into EI - they are 18 months old now, so I can get a good 18 months of EI time. I'm hoping they will be able to attend "regular" nursery school so they can make some neighborhood friends when they are 3 or 4 so they will already have some buddies when they get to kindergarten.
Thanks again for all the support. I'm open to any and all ideas anyone has to make things easier for me and most importantly, better for them.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 2:22 PM ESTMisslily, my story is a little different, but I'll share my experience anyway...I had 60% hearing loss as a infant/child due to constant serious ear infections. I never had hearing aids, but probably should have! I went to a speech therapist from when I was a toddler to about 2nd or 3rd grade. I have regained a majority of my hearing because my loss was due to scars from the infections and I physically grew larger than the scares are. My hearing is still not perfect, but I manage without much hassle at all. This is what I've been told-but I've never been to an audiologist as a teen/adult to get any more explanation.
Ways I feel it has impacted me is learning languages. I've mastered English pretty well, but learning a new language is tough. I just don't hear the subtle differences that most people can hear.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 4:36 PM ESTMisslily,
My DS who is 9 months old has moderate hearing loss and wears hearing aids. I just called EI earlier this week and am working on scheduling our first appointment. I completely understand how you feel. We also rent the HAs from MEEI. Everyone there is great and help to make us feel better about what we're going through. The other kids in his daycare don't even pay attnetion to his HAs.
I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone in either what you're going through or what you're feeling.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 8:34 PM ESTmisslily,
many children with chronic ear infections have mild hearing loss (not why your kids have it, I know) but you'd never know it when you observe them - they seem to respond to sound, your voice, know their name, etc.
BUT the issue is they aren't hearing ALL the sounds of language - it's easier to hear consonants vs vowels (or the other way around) because of the decibel level of the consonants (or something like this, this is a VERY simplified way of thinking about it) but basically, kids can hear only HALF the sounds of a word, making it hard to actually SAY the word.
So instead of hearing elephant they hear lft - and if that's actually WHAT you hear, that's WHAT you'll SAY, too, making speech delayed. So that's why they need to wear their hearing aids. I think that while you and your husband will certainly have your emotions and feelings, it's important to keep those at bay vs. what's BEST for your children. And wearing their aids is best for them. so they will wear them. period. just like they HATE their carseats and seatbelts and bike helmets but they WILL wear them. period. because it's best. and safest. so for your children, wearing aids is just what is. period. once you both can get to that state, it'll be easier for you to have that attitude and expect your children to wear them. and you won't feel so sorry for them.
Oh, it's hard for me to explain what I mean without making me sound either hard-hearted or flip. I know it's not this easy, and I know it's hard to imagine that your wonderful children have any type of need that's unusual.
does this help me explain? I am VERY allergic to nuts. deathly. as in epipen. all my life everyone has been so very sorry for me - that I couldnt' eat pecan pie, or eat cherry ice cream, or have bit o' honey candy or eat nuts on my ice cream. everyone except my parents. they were just matter of fact - you can't eat that, you are allergic, period. so I don't feel sorry for myself. but if my parents always were sad about me, and kept saying, I know you want to eat pecan pie, I'm so sorry you can't, let's see what we can do to make it up to you... then I'd feel that I was somewhat less than others, and I'd be sorry for myself. which is unproductive, to say the least.
we have a child in our center with a club foot. basically he has had several surgeries, at at 5 months old he wears special shoes and a bar between them to keep his legs turned out properly. he wears this bar 24 hours a day (except in the bathtub). yup, in the crib, to play, when you carry him, in the carseat, period, all the time. in a few more months he'll graduate to only wearing it 12 hours a day, and then to eventually 10 hours a day. Until he's 4 yrs old. YUP, until he's 4 (or 5 at the oldest) he'll wear a spacer bar and special shoes ALL NIGHT every NIGHT. now, he's gonna hate it at some point, but his parents also are very clear that if he doesn't wear it, he won't walk or play soccer or do everything they want him to do, eventually. so they don't feel sorry for him. and they don't let anyone else, either. he's already learned to turn from back to front and he's working on from tummy to back. he doesn't feel sorry for himself, he just keep doing what he does with the bar. and that's a great attitude.
so that's what I'm talking about, mislilly, re: attitude.
but how to keep those hearing aids IN toddlers ears and not IN mouths? Yikes, I got nothing!
When will they start working with a speech therapist? I'd assume it's sooner than later, as 18 month olds typically have some words, and by 2 yrs old they have sentences - you want them to stay pretty much on target (hence the wearing of the aids all the time).
oh, could they wear their bonnets even when they nap and don't have the aids in, so they don't associate the bonnets with the aids? Just they always have the bonnets on, that's part of who they are. (and for you, couldn't you find cute bonnets that match their outfits sometimes so you can dress them up and look even cuter - if that kind of thing matters to you, that is. Me, I hvae a hard time getting myself dressed, if I ever had children they'd be the worse-dressed children in the world, totally mis-matched and everything, lol. so I would NOT be the one with matching bonnets, although I'd envy your kids their matching bonnets.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 9:11 PM ESTRegarding teasing -- I had a pretty impressive speech impediment growing up (now people just ask me where I'm from all the time because they think it's an accent); my older brother is legally blind and had to wear those giant, thick glasses; and one of my good friends was almost totally deaf and wore really big hearing aids that buzzed all the time. We all got teased, but not for that stuff. Everyone gets teased. There's absolutely nothing any of us can do about that, nor should we -- it builds character.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 9:53 PM ESTOh - I hope I didn't give anyone the impression that my kids don't wear their aids. They do wear them every day. Well - once in a blue moon we take a day off, but basically they do wear them every day for most of the day. It's not easy to explain how hard it is. It's not like a car seat or helmet - it's a struggle with them pulling them out or trying to pull off their bonnets etc. So imagine your LO pulling something that they need out of their ear and trying to eat it (choking hazard). Now imagine two of them doing it. Now add in everything else you need to do for your LO every day - now double that. plus the things you do for the rest of your family (laundry - dinner etc.) That's my day...every day. :)
Lucy617 - I'd love to chat more - does your LO wear his aids all day? How is it going having him wear them at the day care? Has he started pulling them out yet? Mine were fine until about 10 months when all heck broke lose with them pulling them out. That's when I got the bonnets from Silkawear.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 9:58 PM ESTAnd I don't ever let them know that I feel sorry for them. They will never ever know that. That's something I don't share with anyone. Not even DH. It's just something that is in my heart because they are my children and I love them.
We just get on with our day. It's normal for us to put the aids in after breakfast until nap time and then again after nap until bath time.
It's very hard to explain without sounding like a whimp or a whiner - and I'm neither.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/27/2011 10:38 PM ESTYou don't sound like any of those things, miss. The logistics of the whole operation sound really difficult.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/28/2011 7:25 AM ESTAs an example - even the audiologist said one day, "I don't know how you do it." If you have one at this age who is pulling out his/her aids you can keep an eye on him/her. If you need the bathroom you can take the baby with you. But you can't take twins to the bathroom with you. I can't even run to the basement to change the laundry. What if someone pulls out an aid? What if one of them chokes the other with the strings of the bonnet? It will get easier and I should just get on with it and stop complaining, but some days I just want to sit down and have a good cry.
I just wish they'd start talking a little more. I think once they start to talk, I'll be able to worry less and I'll know that at least all the effort I'm putting into it is helping them. :)
Thanks everyone for all the ideas and thoughts. I do appreciate it.

Hi Misslily,
Yes, my LO does wear his hearing aids all day at daycare (except for naps). He's good with them when he's occupied. It's when he's not doing anything that he pulls them out.
It's almost more of a challenge for me to just get them on him because he always turns his head to see what I'm doing which blocks me! Maybe he knows more than I think and does that on purpose. ; )
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/28/2011 9:02 AM ESTMiss, do you think if they wore them more consistently they'd play with them less? Maybe they would just get used to them.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/28/2011 11:47 AM ESTone bonus of all my speech therapy-no boston accent! People ask me where I'm from all the time and when I tell them I grew up just outside of Boston they're all stunned.
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/28/2011 12:23 PM ESTHi KAM - that's funny! Isn't it weird how some towns get the accent and some don't? I don't have one and none of my friends to either and we all grew up in the suburbs of Boston. (Newton, Wellesley, Weston, Dover etc.)
Lemon- to answer your idea - my kids wore their aids without any problem until about 10 months old. Thenone day - poof! My son went from wearing them all day to wearing them for 10 minutes. I couldn't keep them in his ears at all. And he would pull out her aids too! That's when I got the bonnets.
The audiologists tell me to just hang in there. They see this a lot at this age. Guess I'm just impatient. I want it to get better, and I want them to speak more. I'm sure one day I'll look back and say, "What was I worried about? They wear them without any problem and speak fine!" As with all things with toddlers...it's just a phase. It's just one of the harder phases to get through.
Thanks again to everyone!
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/28/2011 12:40 PM EST
Missllily-that's the group of towns I grew up in...and have since moved back to. Odd how the accent has skipped most people here.
I'm sure the twins will start to accept their hearing aids again soon. Then probably go through a phase as teenagers in no wearing them. How profound is the hearing loss? Are you able to have them do play dates/groups?
Re: ALF - question about HOH
posted at 1/28/2011 12:47 PM ESTMisslily,
The best advice my mother has is to be advocate for your children and to listen to gut about everything. She also wished she had join a support group because she had all of guilty feelings about our hearing loss. I thinks it's normal for every parent to feel guilty when it comes with their children especially if the have a disable that's why I highly recommend support groups.
Truth be told, my mother was the best mother ever. She was our biggest advocate and no matter how bad our days got she was always there for us. Plus, she raise three successful children...one being microbiologist, an speech pathologist and an architect.
In regards, to you kids being teased ...I don't think that will be a big issue at first. Kids these days are used to seeing people with bluetooth these days and will think that your kids have this cool toy. What you might have to worry about is other kids pulling the HA out of their ears!
It may become a big issue once your kids hit the pre-teen or teenage years. On top of all of their other insecurities the HL be may at the top of their list. So, if it becomes an issue case just make sure they see counselor.
If you haven't done so..I would have your husband and you try on hearing aids so that you can get a feeling to what's it's like. My sister and I used to get a lot headaches during our pre-teen & teenage years. We often have to take them out for an hour or two to get over the headaches. In some cases we had to bring them back to the shop to make adjustments.
This all I can think of now and if you have another questions just ask.

all the rich suburbs! Accents are for poor people. Which is why they drilled them out of us at Emerson (also where I got my speech therapy).

Getting Medical Students Into the Kitchen
May 15, 2014
Read the full story by Susan Green, published by the Geisel School of Medicine.
"This appetizer is one of my favorites," says Julia Nordgren, MED '99, of the goat cheese dip she's starting to make. "We'll mix the goat cheese with a bit of Greek yogurt and milk, then add herbs de Provence—smell this, delicious!—and serve it with toasted whole wheat pita chips sprinkled with herbs."
Julia Nordgren, MED '99, leads an elective course that teaches Geisel students how to cook and how to talk to their patients about different diets. From left are Kendrew Wong, Geisel '17; Nordgren; Tara Kedia, Geisel '17; Caitlin Hopeman, Geisel '17; Geisel Professor Richard Simons; and April Venn, Geisel '17. (Photo by Lars Blackmore)
It's a cold spring evening and 10 Geisel School of Medicine students, along with Richard Simons, the senior associate dean for medical education, are gathered at Simons' Vermont home to learn how to cook. Developed by Nordgren, this innovative, elective pilot enrichment class, "The Doctor is IN . . . the Kitchen," is designed to give students information, skills, and practice in preparing healthy and delicious meals. Each cooking session also explores topics such as celiac disease and gluten-free foods, the Atkins diet, the Mediterranean diet, and vegetarian/vegan foods, along with related recipes.
The philosophy and science behind each of the diets are also discussed. "We consider a variety of issues, such as how the diet works, the research supporting it, and what a meal looks like," Nordgren adds.
According to Nordgren, many doctors are not equipped to offer their patients solid advice regarding eating, given the plethora of options, and there's a disconnect between "what we as physicians feed ourselves and how we help our patients feed themselves healthfully in a way that's neither judgmental nor preachy."
Passionate about the power of good food, Nordgren on a mission to arm physicians and medical students with the culinary literacy necessary for them to comfortably discuss the relationship between nutrition and health outcomes with their patients.

Product Reviews
Anna WoodMobile, ALAge: 45-54Gender: female3 Stars Out Of 5Contains little GospelSeptember 15, 2011Anna WoodMobile, ALAge: 45-54Gender: femaleQuality: 3Value: 3Meets Expectations: 3Our lives are complicated, busy, frustrating. Our children are over-whelmed with adult-organized activities and exhausted from over-scheduled lives. Families hardly know each other and neighbors don't know each other. Something needs to be done_but what?
Randy and Rozanne Frazee have some ideas that just might change your life. Their book, Real Simplicity deals with these and other problems head-on and offers up some good (and sometimes rather radical) suggestions. Most of their ideas revolve around these points: be more family and neighborhood focused, be less involved in overly expensive structured activities, be more involved with each other, rest more, enjoy the simple things; their more radical idea also involves resting_at the right time. You will have to read it to find out more (it's interesting though and might work quite well for some).
Packed with great ideas, enjoyable stories and delicious sounding recipes, Real Simplicity is a worthwhile read for families who have traded peace and simplicity for busyness and stuff.
Though written by a Pastor, sadly there is little of the Gospel presented within its pages.
DISCLAIMER: I was provided with a copy of this book by Zondervan for purposes of review. I was not required to give a positive review, only a fair and honest one. My opinions are my own.
juliea4 Stars Out Of 5slow starter, but worth plowing throughAugust 2, 2011julieaQuality: 4Value: 4Meets Expectations: 3After being transformed by Lorilee Craker's "Money Secrets of the Amish", I couldn't wait to be inspired further along the road to the simple and fulfilling Life. So I was thrilled at the chance to review "Real Simplicity: Making Room for Life," by Rozanne and Randy Frazee.
I have to admit, I was sorely disappointed for the first half of the book. Whereas "Amish" painted the picture of a lifestyle I couldn't wait to embrace, the authors of "Real Simplicity" employed a textbook-like style to teach me why I should accept their proposal. The Frazees' quoted facts and studies didn't inspire me to want to pursue simple living in the way "Amish" did. Thus, only my obligation to write a review compelled me to continue reading.
Well, I am certainly glad that I did press forward. Once the authors were done trying to sell their plan, it actually began to sell itself. In the latter part of the book, as the Frazees presented the everyday aspects of their simple lifestyle, I began to feel enthralled by the vision, much like I had been with "Amish". I have come away with 3 positive changes I will make in my life, and there's not a lot more one can ask from a single book! So, while it didn't knock my socks off like "Amish", "Simplicity" was certainly well worth the read, and will go down on my list of life-changers.
I received this book free from Zondervan for the purpose of providing my honest review. I was not required to give a positive review.

Cory v. White
Annotate this Case
- Syllabus
- Case
U.S. Supreme Court
Cory v. White, 457 U.S. 85 (1982)
Cory v. White
No. 80-1556
Argued January 18, 1982
Decided June 14, 1982
Both Texas and California assert the right to levy state death taxes on the estate of Howard Hughes, the taxing officials of each State claiming that Hughes was domiciled in their State at the time of his death. The administrator of the estate filed an action in Federal District Court under the Federal Interpleader Act, alleging that the respective state officials were seeking to tax the estate on the basis of inconsistent claims. The District Court dismissed the action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction because of the failure to satisfy the Act's requirement that there be diversity of citizenship between at least two adverse parties. The Court of Appeals reversed, holding that the requisite diversity was present between the administrator and the County Treasurer of Los Angeles County. The court rejected the State's claim that, although the suit was nominally against state officials, it was in effect a suit against two sovereign States barred by the Eleventh Amendment.
Held: The Eleventh Amendment bars the statutory interpleader action. Worcester County Trust Co. v. Riley, 302 U. S. 292. Contrary to the Court of Appeals' view, Edelman v. Jordan, 415 U. S. 651, did not overrule Worcester County Trust Co. Pp. 457 U. S. 89-91.
629 F.2d 397, reversed.
WHITE, J., delivered the opinion of the Court, in which BURGER, C.J., and BLACKMUN, REHNQUIST, and O'CONNOR, JJ., joined. BRENNAN, J., filed an opinion concurring in the judgment, post, p. 457 U. S. 91. POWELL, J., filed a dissenting opinion, in which MARSHALL and STEVENS, JJ., joined, post, p. 457 U. S. 92.

This is the blog of a prune picker. (Native born Californian) Retired oilfield. I am an old man. (90) I blog a lot about my body and getting old. As I approach death life gets more interesting. More interesting is not good. I still drive. I attend sports, bluegrass, and civic events. I attend swim class three times a week. Some of my blogs might be interesting. A lot of my blogs are silly and trivial. None are very long.

Starting a New Career in Digital Marketing
Q: I am working as a banker for a major bank. I have a degree in computer-information systems and am interested in a career in digital media marketing. I am currently trying to take continuing-education courses, but am not sure how else to proceed. Do you have any suggestions?
A: Congratulations on taking the first step (i.e. the courses) to change your career. For most people, this seems to be the hardest part. Before you go further, I'd recommend speaking with several people who currently have active careers in digital marketing. Find out what courses they feel would be most helpful and see if they're willing to share the type of experience their firms are after. It could be that your IT degree will immediately qualify you for a position on the programming side of such a firm, and from there you could develop the necessary skills and valuable contacts to transition to the marketing side.
Q: I am 30 and into my second professional job. I am searching for a new, different job for a variety of reasons. I am extremely grateful to be working and I feel guilty for wanting a different job while others have none. Also, I wonder if prospective employers will view me as greedy for wanting to change jobs while other candidates have been let go. Is it selfish to try to change jobs?
A: First of all, assuming you've been working in the professional world since age 22, you've had two jobs in eight years. By most standards, this isn't a lot. So I don't think anyone would fault you for looking for a new opportunity provided you phrase your reasoning constructively (e.g. you'd like to try your hand at a new skill set or a different work environment). And just because there are many unemployed individuals these days doesn't mean you should stay in an unfulfilling job -- the two things are in no way connected. Instead of being ruled by unwarranted guilt and fears of selfishness, try to objectively consider whether this is the best time to be job hunting. You may want to wait six months simply because it will be easier for you.
Q: I'm 26 and recently left a well-paying corporate job to take a job as a police officer. It's what I always wanted to do. And after about six months in a grueling (both physically and mentally) police academy and six months on the job, I absolutely hate it. All I want to do is go back to the corporate world and my old job. Unfortunately, the way civil service works, if I was to quit the job now and decide to come back at a later time, I'd have to go through the police academy all over again. How much time do I sacrifice to a job I hate because it might be better at some point down the road? Also, I'm in the process of having a complete identity crisis because all I've ever thought about for the last 10 years was becoming a police officer!
A: It's so demoralizing to put a profession up on a pedestal and then one day discover it's nothing like you thought. However, the first few months/years of most professions are difficult as you adjust to the pace and the responsibilities. In general, things get easier as you acquire knowledge and hit your stride. Talk to veterans in the field to help you assess whether the long-term life of a police officer isn't for you, or if you're just feeling uncomfortable now because you're more accustomed to the corporate world. If you do decide that you've made a mistake, don't beat yourself up too much. You are in your twenties, after all, and these years are about exploration. I would give the police force six more months and then move on to your next opportunity. You want to be sure you learned everything you can from the experience.

There is a case to be made for the fact that 2010 will be remembered as the year eBooks solidified themselves as a veritable cultural mainstay. It will be the year when eReaders really took hold.
While eReaders have not been absolutely perfected, and paper books are still being printed, bought, sold and read, eReaders nevertheless have become part of the cultural landscape. So which one is best? The Nook, Kindle and iPad have been battling it out for quite some time, but the future remains uncertain.

My personal feeling is that BB&T should not have accepted bailout funds. I just saw on Fox that one bank has applied to the Feds for permission to return the money they accepted.My hope is that BB&T will do the same.
Why? They have leveraged those funds and will add to earnings as a result. They are cheap funds to fund their business. More earnings is the objective isn't it?
you said what I have been thinking for weeks now. RETURN THE D A M MONEY.
Why don't you return your hair piece?

Gaby Hoffmann's Crystal Fairy
Gaby Hoffmann, who you will remember dearly from movies like Sleepless in Seattle, Field of Dreams and, of course, Now & Then, is starring in a new movie alongside Michael Cera. It's called Crystal Fairy, and it's about a group effort to track down the hallucinogenic product in Chile's San Pedro cactus. Hoffmann plays that girl who was always spinning in circles on your college quad (or some version of her). She's also due for a turn in Girls next season.
Add all this together and you get a New York Times Magazine profile, naturally—one that's about as nostalgic for the Manhattan of Hoffmann's youth (she grew up in the Chelsea Hotel) as you probably feel for her Uncle Buck character. There's also some interesting meta-commentary (remember Mara Wilson?) from Hoffmann and Claire Danes, child stars who are no longer children. From Taffy Brodesser-Akner's story:
Hoffmann doesn't think it's fair to compare her with the typical modern child star, or the modern survivor of child stardom either. "I was never as famous as all these kids," she said. "There was no social media. We weren't celebrity-obsessed as a culture. I feel like these kids are under a crazy microscope; they're basically brands. And they eventually implode and act out. They need a break, and they're not getting one." For all that her family depended on her talent and skill, Hoffmann never felt that she couldn't walk away from acting; she never felt that she was less important than what she could help provide.
Claire Danes, with whom Hoffmann became good friends as a teenager, suggests, counterintuitively, that it was actually the permissiveness of the environment that saved both of them. "Growing up in downtown New York City in the '80s, we were ensconced in art and progressive thinking," she says. "Our parents all experimented with raising us in a fairly loose, unorthodox way. A huge emphasis was placed on creativity, and our artistic efforts were never dismissed as childish. There was a sense that we — kids and grown-ups — all had the potential to make something of value. Our drawings were not simply destined for the refrigerator. We never felt patronized."
And Sebastian Silva, Hoffmann's director in Crystal Fairy, delivers the best indirect compliment I've seen in a while: "She could be wearing a Cinderella dress," he says of his star, "and she would still be a mess."
Crystal Fairy is in theaters this Friday.

2182 Tasting Notes
The third of four new matchas for me to try! This one was on my short list because I love love figs, and it got several very good reviews. Red Leaf's fruity matchas can sometimes be a little candy-ish (as opposed to real fruit flavor), but I've never had fig candy so I don't think I will have that association! The aroma of the powder is sweet and fruity, and it smells kind of like fig jams or fig butters that I've had in the past.
I ordered this one with the classic (starter) matcha base and a robust level of flavoring, which are my go-to settings, from here: http://www.redleaftea.com/matcha-tea/fig-matcha.html
My first sip is awesomely figgy and delicious. As it cools and I am able to taste more and more, the flavor continues to intensify, and now I have a bit of natural sweetness hanging around on this one (no sugar added today!). The fig flavor is strong. Tasty, but very strong at the robust flavoring level. I've tried enough of Red Leaf's fruit flavored matchas now to think that I could probably go with the distinctive level on most of them. Still I will have no problem finishing this one up and I can't wait to mix it with other matchas I have as well.
Today I decided to try to brew this gongfu style. I've actually never tried to steep a black tea gongfu, though I have of course tasted a black tea steeped gongfu when I was in China. I watched David's video on the Verdant website, and guestimated the amount of leaf to add into my pot (since I lack a scale, and also lack the confidence to know by sight).
My first steep was a rinse, but honestly it smelled too good not to drink. And man I'm glad I didn't throw it out. The wet leaf smells deeply chocolatey and a bit roasted, and the liquor smells caramelly, honeyed, and like toasted grains. The flavor isn't very strong (what do you expect from a rinse), but it is deliciously full of notes of chocolate, mollasses grains, and honey, including a rather prominent sweetness as it cools.
The second & third steeps were about 10 seconds, as per the video, and wow, this is a flavor I have never tasted when steeping it western style. It is more minerally, and more grainy. Chocolate notes are still there, but less prominent. The sweetness is darker, less honeyed and more like bittersweet chocolate (though not really "bitter" per se). It's roastier, also, toasted and warm.
Fourth, fifth and sixth steeps return to the chocolatey, caramelly flavors that I know from this tea. Definitely delicious.
Seventh steep (at 1 min) started getting weak to my tastes, so I stopped. Still, this has to go down as one of my most successful gongfu brewing sessions with my ru kiln set. Can't wait to try some more black teas in it!
Another day, another matcha. Still no power at my apartment, though I slept over at some friends' last night because freezing temps do not sound like good sleeping weather to me.
Rose is one of my absolute favorite flavors. Can't get enough rose. Rose candies, rose tea, rose everything, so rose matcha had to be high on my list to order. I decided to use this one to try out the white tea base, especially after Alphakitty talked about how delicious it was. I ended up ordering the robust flavoring because like I said, I can't get enough rose. You can find this matcha here: http://www.redleaftea.com/matcha-tea/rose-matcha.html
When I opened the package, it was like whomph rose! It smelled so delicious and sweet. Not even what I would consider "perfumy" but more like a big fresh batch of loukoumi. When I smelled a little closer, it definitely had that rose-white-tea aroma, which of course makes sense. Unlike the black matcha yesterday, this one didn't form any reasonable foam at all while whisking, but so it goes.
My first sip was rosey and delightful, and I probably could have drank the whole bowl as is, but I have gotten used to a little sweetness in my (hot) matchas, so I added just a pinch of sugar. It wasn't actually enough to really make the bowl sweet, but it did bring out more flavors from the white tea base, including a bit of fruitiness. I had a hard time keeping the matcha in this one suspended in the liquid while drinking and had to whisk it every so often to re-mix it. It also, like the black matcha, wasn't quite as disappearingly smooth as the green matcha.
The white matcha base definitely works well with the rose matcha, but I'm not sure I would go for it again; instead, I might try a more premium grade of the green. Still, a very delicious matcha and I won't have any problem drinking it up!
what is 'white matcha'? I know how matcha is traditionally manufactured and how traditional white teas (yen zhen yao ba) are made, how modern white teas (bai mudan/pai mu dan) are made (both are Chinese), but I'm curious if 'white matcha is just machine ground bai mu dan (where traditional matcha is also stone ground). If you know I would be interested to learn about it
I was talking about this one earlier this morning and I started craving it. So delicious! I find it hard to wait for the cup to cool enough for me to drink it. Really this is a fantastic Earl, with a strong tasty bergamot and delicious base.
I'm back in NY, and disappointed to find out my house still doesn't have power. Unfortunately I have an electric stove, so I am SOL when it comes to trying to make tea at home. Also it was freaking cold last night (low of 33°F overnight), so my now-unheated apartment was not pleasant.
I schlepped all my matcha-making equiptment in to work today (it's where my variable-temp tea kettle is anyway), except of course my almond milk, which sadly did not make it in my fridge. I got a package of Red Leaf matchas not long before I left last weekend but I never got around to trying them because I was so busy, and then they just sat on my table. I brought this one in today to try.
I chose this one to try out the black matcha base because I was intrigued by it and figured hazelnut would pair well with a black base. I got this one with robust flavoring, because that's how I roll. You can find it here: http://www.redleaftea.com/matcha-tea/hazelnut-matcha.html
When I opened the pouch on this one I immediately smelled hazelnuts and black tea, but then an odd fruitiness crept in as well, almost like I might expect if this was a green matcha. When I whisked it, it produced the thickest, most luxurious foam I've ever had for any matcha I've tried. I sipped it while it was still hot and didn't taste much, which could be more to do with the hotness of it than anything else, but I still went ahead and put in about a tsp of sugar. The result is nutty and smooth and delicious. There is maybe a hint of fruitiness but I am unsure whether that is a quirk of the hazelnut flavoring or the black matcha. I am enjoying the black matcha base and will probably get it on any future matchas that are chocolately flavored. When I got down to the bottom of the bowl it was a little grittier with a little more fallen pieces of tea than the green, but it really wasn't bad at all. Can't wait to try this one as a latte (eventually).
Sorry to hear about the dark and cold. That's just miserable. I'm glad you are able to have a little warmth at work.
Still now power! Glad you can have heat and tea at work! Hope you have a wood stove or something and that the job is helping out people like you.
Did you say you're out on LI? (Nassau or Suffolk?) Hope yesterday's storm didn't make things too much worse for you. =(
Nik – Suffolk, yeah. It doesn't appear that the storm affected our power, but it has been really horrible outside and driving around is certainly no fun!
This tasting note is pretty much exclusively a check-in for me. Some of you may know that I live on Long Island in NY, which was hit hard by Sandy. Fortunately for me, I have been in Ohio visiting my boyfriend since last Saturday. I was originally scheduled to return to NY on Tuesday, then Thursday, but horrible conditions in NY and Long Island have kept me trapped here until the weekend. But my school has been closed for the rest of the week, so I don't have to worry about my teaching obligations. I know that my apartment fortunately didn't flood, but that it probably still doesn't have power (too bad for my food in the fridge/freezer).
I drank this cold on my drive down to Ohio, and definitely thank it for keeping me awake.
Glad to hear you are safe! It's got to be a nail-biter, anxious to check on things at home. Keep us posted. You're in our prayers!
First of all I have to say thanks to Nature's Leaf Teas for sending me these samples to review. I was also very impressed by the packaging of the samples—resealable, heavy plastic zip-top pouches with the brew instructions printed on them—and also the amount, a generous 1oz. I look forward to trying them all but today I had to jump right in with this one. I have a relatively newly-discovered love of fujian black teas, so I am excited to try this one.
The dry leaf has a nice look, pretty long with a few lighter colored leaves throughout, though not as long and spindly as some that I've seen. It smells grainy and alfalfa-y, which is what I would pretty much expect. Steeped, more chocolatey, molassesy aromas start coming out. The flavor is pleasant, a bit of cocoa powder, a bit of grain. When it was still a bit too hot for me to drink there was a hint of sweetness that made me think that the honey notes would grow, but alas, it seems to have faded as it cooled. I am thinking next time I will monkey with the steep parameters, but even so this is a tasty fujian and I'm glad I got the chance to try it. Thanks again!
I had this one cold at the gym tonight. At first I was unsure of how nutty matcha would be cold, but holy moly, it was delicious.
Again, 1/2tsp for a liter of water. I actually usually put it in my water bottle with a little water in the morning, then fill it the rest of the way up with cold water at the gym. Not sure, but I sometimes feel like giving the matcha time to stew in the cool water all day boosts the flavor. This one was nutty (natch), very pistachio-y, and even a hint sweet (no sugar involved!). Yum. I think I prefer this one cold, even.
I am revisiting this tea for the first time in a while. I would like to bust through some of my older Dammann Frères teas so that I can possibly make an order from them… there are so many of their teas I want to try.
This one I have the least left of all of them. It really does remind me of Harney's Florence, though I would have to taste them back to back to really remind myself of that because I haven't had Florence in a long time. It's lightly chocolatey and very nutty, with the barest hint of orange to it. When it was warmer it was a touch sweet in the aftertaste, though this seems to have faded and it is more astringent when cooled. Really quite a tasty tea, though not quite as spectacular as my other favorite DF teas.
I am tempted when the tea boxes are over to see if a bunch of people would like to place a single order with them. So many I want, and the ones you can get in Sur La Table are not them.
The last few times I went to exercise, I switched my usual water with some cold matcha. I read that matcha can boost calorie burning during a workout, and also that it can provide more energy during the workout (which is kind of a well duh since it has pretty energizing properties anyway). I figured, why not? Just a half a teaspoon in my one liter of water is flavorful and really tasty. I've done it with my Sea Buckthorn Matcha, Black Currant Matcha, and today with this Caramel Matcha.
The first time I didn't think it really made any difference in my energy level, but then again that class was with an instructor that I don't really like anyway. Yesterday was my second time with it at spin class and I didn't really think it made a ton of difference at the time, but today my regular instructor (who I love) came up to me before class and asked "Did you drink a Red Bull before class yesterday? You were going so fast!"
So I guess it must be doing something! Haha. Also, for what it's worth, I have tried to exercise to lose weight before, and though I often come out feeling stronger it never seems like I lose pounds or inches. There is probably a lot of stuff at work this time, but I actually do see quite a difference during this latest exercise kick, and this time I have been drinking matcha in the morning during the entire time. Yay matcha.
Congrats on your working out! I myself am trying to get back into it after being out for over a year! Yoga kicked my butt today.
I too found matcha before working out helps out a lot – and it's low calorie so you aren't wasting the workout!
I love the amount of energy it gives me, when I go a day or two without Matcha I can really feel the difference, I can feel my energy levels droop. But if I get on a routine where I'm drinking at least a bowl of Matcha a day, after about a week, I can really tell the difference in my energy levels. It's great stuff.

Valentine Pizza and "chock-lit"
Inspired by Jess of "Get Sconed!" and her heart-shaped vegan shortbread Valentine's cookies, I decided to make a heart-shaped pizza for dinner. My pizza was not vegan, but it was vegetarian (and yummy). I tried out some veggie pepperoni for the first time and, while I didn't like eating it right out of the package, it was pretty good on the pizza. In addition to the veggie pepperoni, I also put on shredded carrots, red swiss chard, tomato sauce and monterrey jack cheese. It was quite a tasty dinner. :) The heart-shaped dough: With the veggie pepperoni: Topped with all the fixins and ready toRead More →

Tips for Planning A Patio
The easiest patio to lay and maintain is one made with dry-laid bricks or pavers. Because these are laid in sand and are set without mortar, they go through freeze-and-thaw cycles without cracking. Flagstones laid directly into well-tamped soil or sand make an attractive, more natural-looking patio, for low-growing plants or moss eventually grow between the joints.
Planning a patio is similar to planning a deck. Some more tips:
How much space do you need? Experts recommend a minimum of 25 square feet of patio per person and a minimum length of 16 feet. You need at least a 6 x 6 foot area out of any traffic path for a dining table and chairs.
How will you be using the patio? Do you want space for a grill? Lounge chairs? Planters?
Use a garden hose to plan a curve or an irregular shape. Lay the hose on the ground and adjust the shape.

A node.js module for parsing form data, especially file uploads.
A node.js module for parsing form data, especially file uploads.
This module was developed for Transloadit, a service focused on uploading and encoding images and videos. It has been battle-tested against hundreds of GB of file uploads from a large variety of clients and is considered production-ready.
This is a low level package, and if you're using a high level framework such as Express, chances are it's already included in it. You can read this discussion about how Formidable is integrated with Express.
Via npm:
npm install formidable@latest
git clone git://github.com/felixge/node-formidable.git formidablevim my.js# var formidable = require('./formidable');
Note: Formidable requires gently to run the unit tests, but you won't need it for just using the library.
Parse an incoming file upload.
var formidable = require'formidable' http = require'http' util = require'util'; httpcreateServer if requrl == '/upload' && reqmethodtoLowerCase == 'post' // parse a file upload var form = ; formparsereq reswriteHead200 'content-type': 'text/plain'; reswrite'received upload:\n\n'; resendutilinspectfields: fields files: files; ; return; // show a file upload form reswriteHead200 'content-type': 'text/html'; resend '<form action="/upload" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post">'+ '<input type="text" name="title">
'+ '<input type="file" name="upload" multiple="multiple">
'+ '<input type="submit" value="Upload">'+ '</form>' ;listen8080;
var form =
Creates a new incoming form.
formencoding = 'utf-8';
Sets encoding for incoming form fields.
formuploadDir = "/my/dir";
Sets the directory for placing file uploads in. You can move them later on using
fs.rename(). The default is
formkeepExtensions = false;
If you want the files written to
form.uploadDir to include the extensions of the original files, set this property to
Either 'multipart' or 'urlencoded' depending on the incoming request.
formmaxFieldsSize = 2 * 1024 * 1024;
Limits the amount of memory all fields together (except files) can allocate in bytes.
If this value is exceeded, an
'error' event is emitted. The default
size is 2MB.
formmaxFields = 1000;
Limits the number of fields that the querystring parser will decode. Defaults to 1000 (0 for unlimited).
formhash = false;
If you want checksums calculated for incoming files, set this to either
'sha1' or
formmultiples = false;
If this option is enabled, when you call
form.parse, the
files argument will contain arrays of files for inputs which submit multiple files using the HTML5
multiple attribute.
The amount of bytes received for this form so far.
The expected number of bytes in this form.
formparserequest cb;
Parses an incoming node.js
request containing form data. If
cb is provided, all fields and files are collected and passed to the callback:
formparsereq // ... ; formonPartpart;
You may overwrite this method if you are interested in directly accessing the multipart stream. Doing so will disable any
'field' /
'file' events processing which would occur otherwise, making you fully responsible for handling the processing.
partaddListener'data' // ... ;
If you want to use formidable to only handle certain parts for you, you can do so:
if !partfilename // let formidable handle all non-file parts formhandlePartpart;
Check the code in this method for further inspiration.
filesize = 0
The size of the uploaded file in bytes. If the file is still being uploaded (see
'fileBegin' event), this property says how many bytes of the file have been written to disk yet.
filepath = null
The path this file is being written to. You can modify this in the
'fileBegin' event in
case you are unhappy with the way formidable generates a temporary path for your files.
filename = null
The name this file had according to the uploading client.
filetype = null
The mime type of this file, according to the uploading client.
filelastModifiedDate = null
A date object (or
null) containing the time this file was last written to. Mostly
here for compatibility with the W3C File API Draft.
filehash = null
If hash calculation was set, you can read the hex digest out of this var.
This method returns a JSON-representation of the file, allowing you to
JSON.stringify() the file which is useful for logging and responding
to requests.
formon'progress' ;
Emitted after each incoming chunk of data that has been parsed. Can be used to roll your own progress bar.
formon'field' ;
Emitted whenever a field / value pair has been received.
formon'fileBegin' ;
Emitted whenever a new file is detected in the upload stream. Use this even if you want to stream the file to somewhere else while buffering the upload on the file system.
Emitted whenever a field / file pair has been received.
file is an instance of
formon'file' ;
Emitted when there is an error processing the incoming form. A request that experiences an error is automatically paused, you will have to manually call
request.resume() if you want the request to continue firing
'data' events.
formon'error' ;
Emitted when the request was aborted by the user. Right now this can be due to a 'timeout' or 'close' event on the socket. After this event is emitted, an
error event will follow. In the future there will be a separate 'timeout' event (needs a change in the node core).
formon'aborted' ;
formon'end' ;
Emitted when the entire request has been received, and all contained files have finished flushing to disk. This is a great place for you to send your response.
keepExtensions: true.
Note: Starting with this version, formidable emits 'file' events for empty file input fields. Previously those were incorrectly emitted as regular file input fields with value = "".
'aborted' event
This marks the beginning of development on version 2.0 which will include several architectural improvements.
'progress' event when receiving data, regardless of parsing it. (Tim Koschützki)
Important: The old property names of the File class will be removed in a future release.
These releases were done before starting to maintain the above Changelog:
Formidable is licensed under the MIT license.

Hornets win to clinch division title
Published: Wednesday, April 16, 2008 at 10:27 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 16, 2008 at 10:27 a.m.
NEW ORLEANS The New Orleans Hornets gathered in front of their bench, wearing ball caps and T-shirts commemorating the first division championship in the franchises 20-year history.
While the latest sellout crowd roared its approval, they stayed on the court for almost a half-hour to celebrate the moment.
David West scored 32 points and Chris Paul had 12 during a decisive run in the third quarter as the Hornets beat the Los Angeles Clippers 114-92 on Tuesday night. New Orleans will have the No. 2 seed in the playoffs in the rugged Western Conference after the Los Angeles Lakers won later Tuesday night.
Three seasons after going 18-64, the Hornets clinched the rugged Southwest division, which has four 50-win teams.
A lot of people had us not even getting in the playoffs, New Orleans center Tyson Chandler said. I dont think any of us believed that. We all believed that were one of the better teams in the conference. If you win this division it says a lot about the team because this is the best division in basketball.
After losing three of its last four, New Orleans struggled for a half against the reeling Clippers before putting them away with 26-6 spurt in the third quarter. The Clippers have lost six in a row and are 4-25 in their last 29 games.
Hornets coach Byron Scott earned his 300th career victory. The Hornets finished 30-11 at home for the third time in franchise history. The club record is 32-9, set in 1997-98, but all those seasons came in Charlotte, their original home.
This was their most significant victory in New Orleans, where they moved for the 2002-03 season and played for three years before Hurricane Katrina forced them to Oklahoma City for all but 10 games during the previous two seasons.
Its a big step for us, West said. We just talked about wanting to improve and being one of the elite teams, and I think we kind of validated ourselves with the ability to come into a tough season and win the toughest division in basketball.
Trailing 56-51 after Cuttino Mobleys 3-pointer early in the third quarter, the Hornets scored 12 of the next 14 points to take the lead for good, then pulled away quickly.
Paul started the run with a lay-up off a Clippers turnover. Peja Stojakovic, who missed his first six 3-pointers, hit two in a row to give New Orleans a 63-58 lead. Paul followed with four consecutive baskets to extend the advantage to 71-62, and Morris Peterson gave the Hornets their first double-digit lead, 74-62, on a 3-pointer with 3:11 left in the quarter.
Sixteen seconds later, Chandler was fouled on a dunk and hit the free throw, making the score 77-62.
We definitely came out in the third quarter and picked up the intensity defensively, Paul said. We can do that every night if we really put our mind to it. Thats the only way were going to be successful in the playoffs.
New Orleans led by at least 12 the rest of the way and poured it on in the fourth quarter, going ahead by as many as 31.
Paul finished with 22 points and 12 assists, while Chandler added 11 points and 11 rebounds. Rookie Julian Wright scored all 14 of his points in the fourth quarter, including a thunderous dunk.
Rookie Al Thornton led the Clippers with 26 points. Corey Maggette contributed 13 off the bench.
We were in it until the second half, when Chris Paul broke us down a little bit and we didnt have an answer for that, said the Clippers Elton Brand, playing only his seventh game since returning from a ruptured Achilles tendon that sidelined him before the season. We tried different defensive schemes, but hes a heck of a player.
West got 20 points on 7-of-8 shooting in the first quarter, but received little help from his teammates as the Hornets trailed 51-49 at the half.
New Orleans, the third-most accurate 3-point team in the NBA, hit only 2-of-13 from beyond the arc in the first half.
Thornton had 11 points in the first quarter for the Clippers, who connected on 4-of-5 3-pointers in the opening half.
Needless to say, at halftime I was not very happy, Scott said. We were allowing them to get pretty much everything they wanted. Watching the tape, I think they understood my point. Luckily in the second half we came out and played much better.
