OKC Thunder: How will Thunder handle DeAndre Liggins' arrest?
On the court, DeAndre Liggins does most everything right.
He's not perfect. But his mistakes never stem from of a lack of effort.
Off the court, the Thunder guard spent part of his weekend in the Oklahoma County jail, arrested Saturday afternoon on complaints of domestic assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and domestic abuse in the presence of a minor.
Liggins isn't the first player in Thunder history to be arrested. But his booking certainly is the most disturbing. And now it will serve as a case study. Put the Thunder to the test.
For an organization that has always prided itself on being a pillar in the community and having a roster full of upstanding citizens, the team must now decide what to do with what could be its first felony offense if Liggins is convicted.
The decision might be an easy one.
Liggins is entering his second season with the team, third in the NBA. He was hard worker and a hustler but still a bit player in his first run with the Thunder, appearing in 39 games and playing a total of 290 minutes. Later this month, he was expected to enter training camp fighting for the 15th and final roster spot.
Already shaping up to be stiff following the draft night additions of Andre Roberson and Steven Adams, the competition for that final spot now includes free agent signee Ryan Gomes and the expected signing of combo guard Diante Garrett.
Liggins, on this team, is practically expendable.
Additionally, because Liggins is on a non-guaranteed contract, he has to make the team to earn his $884,293 league minimum contract. The Thunder could waive him any day and wipe their hands of the alleged situation and Liggins' salary, saving the organization some dollars while also saving it from a distraction.
Many already think Liggins has played his last game in a Thunder uniform.
The franchise's standards might simply be too high to have Liggins stick around. Failing to part ways with Liggins after such an appalling alleged incident would fly in the face of one of the organization's leading tenets — bringing to town not just quality players but also quality people. By hanging onto Liggins the Thunder also runs the risk of sending mixed messages to the remaining players, five of them who this season will have been in the league three years or less.
And so we wait, with no real precedent available to forecast what will come of this unfortunate alleged situation.
Liggins is only the fifth player in Thunder history to have a run in with the law, only the second to do so within the city limits.
Kendrick Perkins was arrested for public intoxication and disorderly conduct in his hometown, Beaumont, Texas, in August 2011. He was released on $150 bail and charges were later dropped. Two months earlier, Nate Robinson was busted for urinating on a sidewalk outside a Barnes & Noble in White Plains, N.Y. He was issued a ticket and released on $100 bail.
In August 2010, Nenad Krstic was at the center of an ugly in-game brawl between his Serbian national team and the national team of Greece during an international tournament in Greece. Krstic threw a chair at a Greek player, striking him in the head and drawing blood. He was held overnight in a Greek jail and released pending an investigation.
In May 2010, a 20-year-old James Harden was in a downtown Oklahoma City club despite being underage. Harden was not arrested or cited, but a manager at the establishment was issued a misdemeanor citation.
That's five brushes with the law for the Thunder franchise in five years. Not a bad ratio. Don't believe us? Just ask around in places like Portland and Indiana and Washington.
But on a hot and sticky Saturday afternoon, the Thunder unexpectedly stumbled into its most serious alleged offense yet.
Soon we'll find out just how serious the organization takes this matter.

The judgment in Radebe v. Hough1 considers whether the plaintiff's economic, social or racial status affects the assessment of damages for pain and suffering. The plaintiff claimed damages for assault, having been shot by the defendant. The bullet wound caused severe pain for some days after the assault. The pain and discomfort had diminished over time but would never disappear completely. The trial judge awarded the plaintiff ¢16, stating:
in awarding damages for pain and suffering one must take into consideration the standing of the person injured. For instance, in the case of a native, as is the plaintiff, who is earning the sum of ¢ per week, I should most certainly not award the same amount for pain and suffering as I would for the same pain and suffering of a person who had more culture and, for instance, I would award a larger sum for damages in the case of an injury to a European woman than I would do for a native male, and so too in the present case, if it had been a European of some standing I would have awarded greater damages than I now propose to do . . . . I have come to the conclusion that if I award him for pain and suffering an amount equivalent

Reading the Feb. 19 Columbian story. "B.G. school levy fails; backers look to April vote." I am not as "shell-shocked" as John Idsinga, president of the Battle Ground School Board, that the levy failed. Every time a school levy comes up, I vote "yes," wherever I live.
No, I am not a parent, but that does not stop me from supporting our schools, the teachers and the children who deserve a fair break. I would rather see the kids in school learning than undereducated and out on the streets. It seems that the 55 percent who voted against this levy would rather support other things in Battle Ground than the future. That does not surprise me because I have seen many changes here in Battle Ground, and not always in a positive way.
Why are these folks so shortsighted to not support the future? To not support schools and the kids? There are a number of things that I do not see eye to eye with in regards to our Superintendent Shonny Bria, but I do support the school levies, our Battle Ground schools, the teachers and the kids who attend those schools.
I will be voting "yes" for future school levies in Battle Ground.

In the Tay catchment we are fortunate compared to the other major Scottish salmon rivers in having a number of fish counters to assess the strength of salmon runs. The counters are nearly all located on spring salmon tributaries, mostly on hydro electric installations. The most important counter, at Pitlochry Dam, is situated on the lower reaches of one of the most productive spring salmon tributaries in the district. Furthermore, up to only a few years ago there was also a counter on the lower reaches of the River Ericht, the Tay's most productive spring salmon tributary but this was lost when the weir housing it collapsed. Thus until a few years ago probably more than half the Tay spring run was counted, providing valuable insights into the status of spring salmon.
Pitlochry Dam
(Data kindly supplied by SSE)
Annual "net" upstream counts at Pitlochry Dam, River Tummel, (that is down counts are subtracted from upcounts on a daily basis), 1951– 2014
Net monthly upstream counts, Pitlochry Dam, 1951 to 2014. Monthly data are not available between 1987 and 1991.
Pitlochry Dam spans the River Tummel, one of the major tributaries of the Tay. All salmon ascending must pass through a fish pass within which a fish counter is located. Also there are glass panels in the fish pass wall which allow salmon to be observed (see video clip). This facility is open to the public during the day.
The River Tummel is one of the main areas for producing spring salmon in the Tay district so this counter is particularly valuable for assessing spring salmon numbers, although there are some difficulties in interpreting the data which are explained in more detail by clicking here.
Following three good years, the total count in 2014 was down, but only back to the general level that has prevailed over the last 10 years or so. Apart from the previous three years, counts for both May and June 2014 were still good relative to 2000s decade. The reduction in the total 2014 count was principally in the summer / autumn. It was probably also the case that, for some years prior to the mid 2000s, the June count would have had a higher proportion of grilse than has been the case recently. Thus, even in 2014, multi-sea winter salmon spawning escapement still seems healthier than it was some years ago.
Annual net upstream counts through Clunie Dam fish ladder, 1953 to 2014.
(note: counter malfunction occurred in 2005)
Net monthly upstream counts, Clunie Dam, River Tummel, 2003 to 2014. Monthly data are not available prior to 2003. Also, note malfunction in 2005.
The total count at Clunie Dam on the River Tummel in 2014 was again in the higher region of those historically recorded. The June count was again very good for recent times, although this may, in part, have reflected a relatively mild spring. There were concerns that following losses of smolts at Dunalastair Dam in 2013 that there might have been a poor grilse run at Clunie in 2014. Clearly, either that did not happen, or was masked by a good run of MSW salmon instead.
Lochay Falls
(Data kindly supplied by SSE plc)
Annual net upstream counts, Lochay Falls, 1960 to 2014 (note malfunction in 2012).
Net monthly upstream counts, Lochay Falls, 2003 to 2014 (note no data prior to 2003 and malfunction in 2012).
The Lochay Falls are a naturally insurmountable barrier to salmon on the lower reaches of the River Lochay near Killin. As compensation for the loss former spawning areas on the River Lyon through damming, the North of Scotland Hydro Electric Board installed a borland fish lift to allow salmon access to the Lochay.
The 2014 count was one of the highest in recent years despite a generally dry summer. Notably, there was, like 2013, a very good count by the end of June rather than during the summer. It is hoped that this improvement may be the result of stocking and fish passage improvements which have taken place (see page 21 of www.tdsfb.org/documents/TayTributariesElectrofishingSurveyReport.pdf).
Annual upstream counts, River Ericht, 1990 - 2010. Grey additions represent possible additional counts in years of counter malfunction (1998, 2000 and 2001) but in 2003 is indicative of fish which were unable to ascend past the counter because of a drought late in the autumn but were rescued and transported upstream by TDSFB staff
Monthly upstream counts, River Ericht, 1993 - 2010. No data are available for 1996 nor before 1993. No spring counts are available for 1998 or 2000 when the counter malfunctioned.
The River Ericht counter was situated at Blairgowrie, only a few miles above the confluence with the River Isla. It was situated upstream of a waterfall, Cargill's Leap, which like Pitlochry Dam, acts as a temperature barrier. Therefore the timing of spring counts especially was no reflection on when the fish might actually have entered the Tay.
The counter was installed in 1990 but following the 2010 season the weir on which it was situated developed a breach and since then fish no longer use the fish pass and the counter had to be removed.
The now historic count data are shown here for information.

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

Angry Birds To Go Social
Immensely popular pig-bashing game to crash into Facebook.
Angry Birds needs no introduction, since millions across the globe are still addicted to it. The game's download counter has already crossed the 700 million mark, and has raked in tons of cash for Rovio. If that wasn't enough, the developer is now set to launch it on the world's biggest social network, Facebook. The move is expected to make this game accessible to around 800 million FB users.
To make its offering special, Rovio has promised better graphics and fullscreen support. Additionally, there will be quite a few gameplay twists in the form of power-ups. These will vary from an disastrous earthquake to a deadly bird. Although these perks can be earned by playing well, the developer will also sell each of them for around Rs 50.
The Finnish game maker is also planning to throw a launch party in Jakarta, which makes sense since Indonesia is one of the most FB-addicted nations in the world. Oddly enough, the event is scheduled on Valentine's Day. Now it's up to you to prioritize your interests.

A good-natured, sometimes silly family fun that will play especially well with the under-13 set.
...better than one might've expected, primarily due to the enthusiasm with which Allen tackles his role...
At least Fred MacMurray had the good sense to let the co-star playing his son turn into a dog. But this is a Tim Allen picture, so he does the honors himself.

Meatless Monday: Books for the Cook On Your List
Ever since I started my weekly meatless feature 15 months ago, I've wanted to compile a resource list of titles that encompass the diverse and wide-ranging meatless recipe world.
With the holiday season in full swing, the requests for kitchen-specific gift ideas have been trickling in, an impetus if there was ever one to finish what I had started.
It's extensive all right, a testament to how far the meatless cookbook world has gone from lentil loaf extravaganzas. Is it definitive? Not by a long shot. But I'd plunk my money down for any of these titles. And feel free to add to the list if you see something missing.
P.S. As I mentioned last week, Culinate is donating commission revenue to Feeding America for online purchases made through Amazon and Powell's.

If I wanted a group of if elif statements to execute to a single order; for example:
if int(one[1]) == solution:
if int(two[1]) == solution:
to execute a a single statement:
print "Hello World"
What would be the best format and syntaxically correct way to input this?
I tried:
if int(two[1]) == solution::
elif int(one[1]) == solution:
print "Hello World"
and other variations but couldn't put my figure on a correct way to do it. Be gentle StackOverflow, I haven't been programming too long.
And the language I'm programming in is Python. Thanks!
I think this is the correct answer, not AND Abdul Kader. Thank you both though. And in Python I think I'll be typing:
if (int(one[1]) == solution OR int(two[1])== solution)):
print "Hello World"

Hotel seen in new plan for shelter
SHELBURNE A Shelburne hotel is poised to be converted into a new type of short-term housing that Vermont officials are touting as a way to help potentially homeless clients regain their footing.
The Champlain Housing Trust is buying the Econo Lodge that will cease operating as a motel within days and will become Harbor Place.
Its like a motel but very different, said the trusts Michael Monte. This is really something in the middle between having nothing and having something.
Children and Families Commissioner David Yacavone said the Harbor Place will provide up to 59 rooms for people in need of temporary housing and caseworkers to help them find work, child care or overcome other challenges that led to their homelessness.

Madwell makes ideas. Ideas make things. Shop the things at THINGMADE.
We're a tight-knit group of hard-working, fast-footed, fearless upstarts with fantastic eyes for detail and highly evolved ideating glands. We have collectively pushed over 75,000,000 pixels, produced in excess of 120,000 sq ft of printscape, scribbled a quattuordecillion words, and sacrificed dozens of good ideas for a single great one.
If you've ever met her, spoken with her, or been on the business end of one of her grade-A awesome emails, you can probably guess Karen's gift and one true love: humans. A once-upon-a-time Anthropology major, she puts that to use on the daily by analyzing social dynamics, gauging and bridging cultures, slaying unicorns, and interpreting for the locals (us). When she's not building and nurturing our client relationships, she's an avid reader, writer, biker, and buffalo wing-er.
Karen has a twin brother. Let it be known that she was born first.
Conor is a dyed-in-the-wool visual problem solver. He has a particular interest in typography as it has applications across all design subsets. He is also influenced by animation studios including Team Ghibli, classic Disney, and Pixar.
If not born as a designer, he would be playing the harpsichord..
Lee hails from the great tax-free state of Delaware. Two years as an engineering major taught him that math was hard—and that design came easy. Even as a designer, though, he never shook his training: his favorite work shows off hard edges, flat color, and perfect alignment. (And so does his desk—every night, Lee cleans it off, then shuts off his mouse and flips it upside down.)
Lee has teenage beard-growth capacity and a geriatric bedtime.
Nicole showed up at our office with a box of cannolis and has been keeping us happy, healthy, and caffeinated ever since. The glue that holds Madwell together, Nicole is a first-rate planner (she plans Halloween costumes a full year in advance), communicator (cats and plants are people too, you know), and builder of cultural bridges. Her avid feminism and love of skulls, art, and urban exploring are just a lucky plus.
Nicole once caught a mouse with nothing but a jar of artisanal peanut butter and some strong language.
Chris believes great work ethic is the backbone of design. He spent the past eight years rowing competitively at the Varsity and Collegiate level, a sport requiring daily 5 am wake-ups. Luckily, this has given him a high tolerance to the effects of sleep deprivation, an accepted job hazard for any young designer. He also has a mild obsession with Chipotle and struggles each day he goes without it. Chipotle, you're on notice: come to Bushwick, dammit.
Has a passionate hatred for shoe laces and is anxiously waiting for the day velcro comes back into style.
Hailing from a family steeped in the visual arts (her great-grandfather was a typesetter in the Depression and her mother is an artist/art teacher), Julia is one of Madwell's resident experts in making things look awesome. Her heroes are Carl Sagan, David Attenborough, and Edward Gorey.
Julia is also quite fond of kittens, steak, and becomes irritable with lack of proper food and rest.
Reared in Belgium. But can't speak French. Or Flemish.
Amanda was born at a gas station and raised in the suburbs of Texas. Growing up, she had plans to be the next Steve Irwin; several allergy shots and plenty of ruined zoo trips later, however, she decided to switch to writing. When not happily buried up to her ears in pens and scratch paper, she's usually off perusing bookstores or dragging friends along to comedy shows.
Amanda has a different last name than the rest of her family thanks to a typo on her birth certificate that has yet to be corrected.
A good strategic leader is ready for anything. David's our case in point: old at heart, he has flatware service for ten (young at heart, he doesn't own a table). He's collected dozens of pairs of not-particularly-collectible shoes. And he always takes more than the recommended daily dose of Flintstones vitamins. The one thing he didn't see coming? His love for the color blue is starting to cause some serious wardrobe difficulties.
David has a curious habit of making purchases he doesn't remember, which once resulted in the surprise delivery of a queen-sized mattress.
Laura's parents never sent her to her room as punishment—it had too many books in it. Instead, they made her play sports. (She coped by becoming an all-state track star and promptly quitting.) She eventually found her way home to her words and today earns her keep by incubating (not intubating) melodic phrases. She divides her free time between eating her weight in noodles and introducing herself to other people's pets.
Laura shares her middle name with a biblical villain whose name begins with the letter S. (It's not Sauron.)
Matt sees effectiveness in design as providing a holistic experience that breeds trust, delight, and true engagement with users. His sensibilities are influenced by his background in architecture; he often dives into distinct project components including visual/interactive design, coding, or conceptual planning.
He and David constantly battle for the title of Madwell Ping Pong Champion, but only after Matt has made a ritual French Press.
Has eleven toes.
Growing up in Kansas, Liz's game of choice was "interior designer": every Sunday night, she'd ask her parents to rearrange her bedroom furniture so she could start the week off fresh. Ironically it was a hurricane, not a tornado, that brought her to New York City from New Orleans. And while she's tried moving away over the years, for reasons she can't quite explain—it might be related to soup dumplings—the city has her magnetized. (Bad news for the soup dumplings. Good news for us.)
Liz prefers the color chartreuse and believes that everything is better inside a pie crust.
After an extended quasi-legal career as a Fin de siècle showman, rabble-rouser, and raconteur, Sean settled down into New York City's music and internet startup worlds. His practiced account management style tends toward overpromising and over- over-delivering, all without a bead of sweat on his brow. The gentleman prefers his music honest, his shoes bench-made, and his whiskey cask-strength. We couldn't have designed him better ourselves.
The Sean Holland school of thought holds that when speaking to foreigners, if you affect their accent, they'll understand you better.
Bo is the proud holder of two Madwell titles: shortest name and longest run of unvaried lunch selection. (Tacos, if you're curious.) He got into advertising because his mother told him that instead of talking so much he should put pen to paper and make something of himself. He trades stories like currency and embellishes the already fictional. Catch him people watching in Washington Square Park or enjoying savory snacks at the corner café. (Also—hi mom!)
A proud Arizona native, Bo will enthusiastically divulge the benefits of a 10-gallon at the drop of a hat.
The way we see it, the more experience you have, the better the user experience advocate you become. That's exactly what makes Robyn such a UX pro: trained in advertising and design, she's been everything from an engagement ring designer to an urban developer to a traveling nanny. She even has her pilot's permit. As long as it involves visual design, team building, and humans, she's in. (And as soon as we get that Madwell jet, she's got dibs on the driver's seat.)
Robyn's favorite color is #FF6666. No substitutions, please.
Frank has 13 years of experience in building for the web, many years of that overlapping with building things out of glass, steel and concrete. Letting no detail go without care, he is constantly pushing his skills forward in both the design and development realms.
He follows Car & Driver, Consumer Reports, and the decaying state of the retail industry at Labelscar.com
There are only a few things on this earth he does not have an opinion about.
Like any good night owl, Anna loves coffee and African drumming. Although her raw sketching and scribbling skills have given an organic edge to many a Madwell project, her cream cheese bust of Kevin Bacon is still one of her proudest pieces. Anna's favorite color is Pantone 5773 C; her second favorite color is organization. (If all the dishes are washed and lovingly aligned, we know she's been by.)
Anna was once bit on the buttocks by a penguin. And she has an unhealthy (literally) fear of vegetables.
Ana got into design the way we all do at age six: by drawing dalmatians. Practice makes professional, as they say, and today Ana can (and will, and does) draw anything she wants. Birds are her favorite, though: a serious bird nerd, she once kept three white doves as pets, and she still spends hours reading up on birds online. The rest of her energy goes toward good music and good food—proper fuel for any creative soul.
Ana loves all things teensy. Special shoutout to tiny teacups and itsy-bitsy chairs.
Want to get into coding? Try the Walter Mitchell Method. First, declare a double major in English and German. Then, decide you'd rather write in JavaScript than MLA style. Lastly, spend actual money on actual books to teach yourself something you could have learned for free. Celebrate your success with a good margarita and a game or three (Peggle, cribbage, Dark Souls). For best results, pick up and move every year until you find a city with proper deli sandwiches.
A one-time resident of Colorado Springs, Tacoma, Portland, Berlin, and now Brooklyn, Walt is tired of learning to use new showers.
Jason is a Texan who moved to NY because he heard about it in a rap song (really pretty much all rap songs not by Dre). His eyesight is on the Mr. Magoo level but his design third eye rivals the power of Cyclops (the optic blasts from the X-Man, not the Greek epic god-spawn). Branding and typography are his passions, as are bean & cheese tacos with bacon and guacamole. And bright colored shoes.
In order to be employed at Madwell, Jason inadvertently spent a night in jail. Seriously, he was handcuffed on Madwell time. That's dedication.
Nick is a California-grown New York native who's been building games and apps since he was 10. Steeped in gaming tradition, Nick reserves a special place in his heart for vintage games—we're talking about the former Marble Madness world champion here. His love of retro extends across other media, too: he shoots film photography and collects cassettes (he even listens to them!).
Nick was obsessed with professional wrestling as a kid, which explains his outstanding Macho Man Randy Savage impression.
Ricky is Madwell's resident Dorian Grey: fresh-faced and bright-eyed, he's already got a lifetime of experience under his belt. (You're familiar with his work, you just don't know it: he played Chip in the Broadway production of Beauty and the Beast, for starters.) Lucky for us, account management is his true calling. Not only is he outrageously friendly and whip-smart, he's an insomniac trapeze artist who's obsessed with lists. (See? Perfect.)
Ricky's a music composer and critic. Thinking about making music? He knows. And he's already judging you.
Jacob grew up in the Endless Mountains of Pennsylvania, raising tadpoles and catching fish. He quickly formed an affinity for painting and drawing comics at school, and has never stopped making art. Considers himself to be painfully shy, but still can't resist trying to make people laugh.
Jake types with his two index fingers. Take that, public school system.
A trained graphic designer, Malissa even did the obligatory framing shop stint in college (and she has the battle scars to prove it). After graduation, she followed her calling straight into the city on the always-popular No Money/No Plan plan. (Her mom was thrilled.) After a spin on the freelancing circuit, she now calls Madwell home. We have an unspoken agreement, though: a job offer from a bakery as a professional taste tester, and she's so out of here.
Malissa once beat 100 people in a rock, paper, scissors tournament. Her strategy? Not talking about her strategy.
Completing creative marathons requires limber, buoyant legs and excessive stamina. At a solid 5 foot 7 inches tall Chris has the creative legs of a pigmy elephant combined with the speed of a full-sized adult cheetah (without the balance). Chris's design career began at the ripe old age of 5 when his mother provided him with a budget to decorate his bedroom to his liking. He has since maintained the philosophy that what he sees in his head he should attempt to manifest, no matter how hard, and always on a budget (for the most part).
Feels that watching Nicolas Cage movies purifies the soul while connecting one's subconscious with the cultural zeitgeist. Especially Bangkok Dangerous.
Allison is a thrill-seeking open book with ants in her pants. Whatever you're planning, she's in (bonus points for karaoke, cliff jumping, or beer and burritos at a soccer game in Nicaragua). Her energy and enthusiasm are boundless—her goal in life is to find the equation for teleportation—and if she's not taste testing ice cream or sampling strange cocktails, look for her deep in her other favorite hobby: solving design challenges to her heart's content.
Allison is hoping to be reincarnated as Washington Square Park. Yeah, the actual park itself.
This Laura goes by many names (e.g., Jumpsuit) and wears many rings. She's sort of always been a writer, but it wasn't until she penned a short story about vampires and gave her English teacher nightmares that she considered pursuing it as a career. When she isn't staring into the void willing new thoughts to life, you can find her drinking whiskey at sundry dive bars and attending heavy metal concerts as well as non-thrash related musical happenings.
Laura was born and raised in Louisiana (not New Orleans). She makes up for not having an accent by making really, really good gumbo.
Joyce is our resident gypsy. This fourth-generation Queens native enjoys moving to a new apartment every three months and to the west coast and back every three years. Other hobbies include flat-affecting, frozen burrito eating, and obsessive Sonos playlisting. Joyce is also a dog-loving cat owner who aspires to own a visually impaired pug whom she will call Raisin.
Joyce wrote a book about how to survive a shark attack. CliffsNotes: Squeeze the shark's eyeballs. They will feel like peeled plums. Do it anyway.

Marine Corps Sergeant MajorE-9 Staff Noncommissioned Officer, U.S. Marine Corps
|Staff Noncommissioned Officer
|Sergeant Major (last name)
E-9 (DoD Paygrade)
OR-9 (NATO Code)
What is a Sergeant Major?
Sergeant Major is the highest enlisted rank in the Marine Corps, and is equivalent in paygrade (but not in responsibility) to Master Gunnery Sergeant.
A Sergeant Major serves as the billeted senior enlisted advisor for the Marine Corps' largest units, including battalions and squadrons. As the senior enlisted member of their unit, Sergeant Majors serve as a bridge between the enlisted Marines and their commanders and assist in unit logistics, drilling, and disciplinary actions among their Marines.
Sergeant Major is the highest enlisted rank available to non-commissioned officers following the command career path. Most Sergeant Majors are promoted from the ranks of qualifying First Sergeants, who serve a similar purpose in smaller units such as companies and platoons.
Sergeant Major is the 12th rank in the United States Marine Corps, ranking above Master Gunnery Sergeant and directly below Sergeant Major Of The Marine Corps. A sergeant major is a Staff Noncommissioned Officer at DoD paygrade E-9, with a starting monthly pay of $4634.70.
How do you become a Sergeant Major?
A Sergeant Major is most often promoted from Master Gunnery Sergeant (MGySg), although promotion from lower paygrades may occur with sufficient display of leadership and experience.
What is the proper way to address a Sergeant Major?
The correct way to address a Sergeant Major named Mr. Miller is "Sergeant Major Miller", or written as SgtMa Miller. In formal situations, a Sergeant Major should always be addressed by their full rank.
How much does a Sergeant Major earn?
Basic pay for an entry-level Sergeant Major with ten years of experience is $4,634.70 per month. A Sergeant Major receives an automatic raise to their basic pay every one to two years.
Basic pay is only a small percentage of a Sergeant Major's final compensation package. In addition to a monthly basic pay salary, a Marine Corps Sergeant Major may be eligible for multiple types of allowances and bonus pay including food allowance, personal money allowance, retirement benefits, hazard pay, and more.
For full details on the Marine Corps' Sergeant Major compensation and retirement plan, visit the 2016 Marine Corps Sergeant Major Pay Chart. A full table of the Marine Corps' current paygrades are available at the Marine Corps Pay Chart.
The Government civilian-employee equivalent of a Sergeant Major is paid under the General Schedule payscale. For more details, learn more about the General Schedule payscale.

Michele Bachmann and Donald Trump need your phone number [UPDATE]
Michele Bachmann, Donald Trump: Maybe you guys should just text each other.
Michele Bachmann and Donald Trump are finally ready to make your nightmares come true. If you have some free time tonight, and are trying to get rid of those last shards of dignity, you can listen to Michele and the Donald have a conversation on the phone tonight.
City Pages cannot promise that Trump will take this opportunity to tell Bachmann, "You're fired." But, given their equally self-destructive records of talking off the cuff, there's really no predicting where this thing will go.
Bachmann announced hers and Trump's "tele-townhall" in an e-mail that went out last night, promising that the two of them will discuss "the state of the race," by which we assume they mean white people.
UPDATE: Trump didn't even know about the tele-townhall until... someone told him about it on national television.
Bachmann's e-mail explains that tonight's phone event is an "incredible opportunity" to "hear from a businessman who knows firsthand that Barack Obama's failed policies are crippling our nation's job creators."
The telephone makes Michele happy.
Yes, what an opportunity. It seems that, with a bit of coaxing from Bachmann, Trump is finally ready to voice his opinions out loud. Maybe this is something of a turning point, and we'll begin to see Trump appearing on television, where the famously shy entrepreneur can shed a little light on his inner-most feelings about male pattern baldness.
Bachmann's advertising e-mail seems to have been generated by some kind of computer program: Three different times, it offers up the link to sign up for her exciting tele-townhall with Donald Trump, which if you'd like to sign up you can just click here to register for her exciting tele-townhall with Donald Trump.
Then, it signs off with this helpful, hopeful note:
P.S. I hope you will join Donald Trump and me for an exclusive conference call on Monday night. Click here to register. We're both looking forward to discussing the need to retire Barack Obama, and I'm eager for your input and questions on my campaign's strategic vision.
So, if you've wanted to give Michele Bachmann campaign advice, now's your chance. For example, if you wanted to tell her to avoid appearing in public with the least-liked phony, jerky blowhard in American pop culture, you could tell her that, over the phone, tonight, during her tele-townhall with Donald Trump.
UPDATE: Apparently, in her rush to tell everyone about the tele-townhall, she forgot to tell just one guy. Oh, right, Donald Trump.
In an interview this morning on Fox and Friends, Trump was asked about tonight's planned phone call event, and expressed both confidence that it would be a success -- along with total surprise that it was even going on, according to the Hill.
"I didn't even know it was going on 'til you told me," Trump said. "But that's OK."
Is it? You're kind of the selling point of this whole tele-townhall, and you didn't even know about it, and that's "OK"? Is this how Trump's calendar normally runs, with him learning about his own events only when someone tries to quote him on the record to promote it?
All right, in any event, Trump, you're a salesman. So sell! Spin, deny, recover, promote, self-promote... and voila!
"I think it's fine and you'll have lots of people calling in, and I look forward to it," Trump said. "It's my honor to do it."
That's great to hear, Mr. Trump. Oh, also, you said one time you'd be honored to buy lunch for City Pages, remember? Well, anyway, today's the day.

FL Judge to Debt Settlement Companies. Fuck Me? Fuck You!
In 2012 there was a stinker of a class action settlement offered to consumers in a Florida class action case. An agreement was reached in that settlement where the attorneys got paid, cash awards were made to charities and the 125,000 harmed consumers got nothing. Consumer organizations objected as unfair. You can read about that case, here. Thanks to an ... Read More »

Belmont Stakes could be wet, wide-open race
"He's always impressed us in his training, and he's shown hints of that in some of his races although he hasn't completely followed through and won a big race that we feel like he's capable of doing," said Pletcher. "We think he's well meant for this race."
The Belmont is known as a rider's race because it takes a savvy jockey familiar with the lay of the land to navigate the nation's only 1 1/2 -mile oval. Belmont Park is like the Grand Canyon of racetracks, a much wider track than Churchill Downs or Pimlico, with long, sweeping turns.
It's also deceiving. Judging distance can be difficult. For example, at the top of the turn at Belmont, there's still a half mile left in the race. At other tracks, there's only a quarter mile to go.
Gary Stevens, who will be aboard Oxbow, knows all about the intricacies of the track. In 1997, he moved too soon aboard Silver Charm and had his Triple Crown spoiled by Touch Gold. A year later, he spoiled Real Quiet's Triple bid when Kent Desormeaux moved too early and Stevens' Victory Gallop won by a nose.
"`'Belmont Park is like the ocean," said the recently unretired Stevens. "You can have a lot of fun in it, but it can hurt you if you don't respect it.
"It's a tricky place. It may look simple, but it's not simple. I think the best horse usually wins the Belmont, other than jockey error."
In the Preakness, Oxbow took charge from the start, set a slow pace and had enough left to win by 1 3/4 lengths. He should have plenty of company if he decides to gun for the lead on Saturday.
Look for Freedom Child, Frac Daddy and Palace Malice to give chase, with Orb, Golden Soul and Revolutionary back in the pack, most likely behind the mid-packers such as Unlimited Budget, Overanalyze and Will Take Charge. As the leaders move into the far turn, the real race riding should begin, with jockeys trying to pick the precise moment to ask their horse for a winning move.
Pletcher's Rags to Riches became the first filly in 102 years to win the Belmont in 2007. He believes any of his starters has a chance depending on how the race unfolds.
"The Belmont can be a very demanding race," he said. "Pace was a factor in both the Derby and Preakness and it'll dictate who is going to do what. A slower pace will allow some of these horses to run a little further and a fast pace will really expose some of them."
Despite the absence of a Triple Crown attempt, there's still a lot riding on the outcome. Says New Yorker Mike Repole, who owns Unlimited Budget, Overanalyze and Midnight Taboo: "Some owners get Kentucky Derby fever. I get Belmont Stakes fever."

Anti-inflammatory medication helps reduce and prevent inflammation inside the airways. Inhaled corticosteroids and corticosteroid pills are two types of anti-inflammatory medications.
Steroid pills are used when you have an exacerbation or flare-up and your symptoms are getting worse. Long-term use of steroid pills can result in serious side effects and are not recommended to treat COPD long-term.

Dear Microsoft O365 Support,
I have a client which migrated to O365 last week, they were using SBS2008 with the Exchange 2007 that hosted by themselves. I saw that there have a certificate keep prompting from time to time after their Outlook profile mapped the O365 accounts in their Outlook. Please check the attached screen shot as below.
Are there any ways to remote the prompting? Please advise. Thanks.
Best Regards,
Thanks for the feedback.
Hi Steven,
Thanks for posting and screenshot.
The error message about certificate issue indicates the autodiscover record is incorrect. According to my research, the autodiscover record for your domain does not exist in public DNS. Please make sure there is an CNAME record for autodiscover.yourdomain.com and point to autodiscover.outlook.com available in both internal and public DNS.
For more information about it, please refer to the two links below:
Outlook cannot configure a new profile by using Exchange Autodiscover for an Exchange Online mailbox in Office 365
Use a CNAME Record to Enable Outlook to Connect
Anna Guo
Dear Anna,
Thanks for your reply. I have pointed all of the DNS record directly before migrated to O365. Please check the screenshot as below:
And the security alert prompted remote.trends.com.hk certificate which should not be happened in O365 profile. So I am not sure where is the problem. Please advise. Thanks.
Best Regards,
Thanks for your reply.
Based on the current situation, I would like to clarify the following information to troubleshoot this issue.
1. Are you using Outlook 2007 to connect to your Office 365 account? Have you installed the latest update for Outlook 2007?
If not, please install the updates and check this issue.
2. Could you try to change to another computer which is not in your domain to test this issue? Will this issue persist?
If this issue still reoccurs, please post the log for Test E-mail Autoconfiguration result for us to check it.
For how to check it, please refer to the link below:
1. Click Ctrl and Microsoft Outlook button in the meantime.
2. Click Test E-mail AutoConfiguration.
3. Check Use AutoDiscover and uncheck Use Guessmart and Secure Guessmart Authentication and then click Test.
Please post the whole content of Log here.
Thanks for your reply. All of our clients are using Outlook 2010. The result and log have been captured as below, please check it. Thanks.
Thanks for your reply and screen shots.
Based on the current situation, to troubleshoot the problem that users failed to connect Exchange Online with Outlook client using autodiscover service, please refer to the steps below and check what happens:
1. Make sure that the Autodiscover CNAME record exists for your email domain and can be queried from internet.
2. Configure the following registry entries to prevent Outlook client from getting autodiscover information from the service connection point (SCP) in Active Directory.
[HKCU\Software\[Policies\]Microsoft\Office\<12.0 or 14.0>\Outlook\AutoDiscover]
ExcludeScpLookup DWORD 1
ExcludeHttpsRootDomain DWORD 0
ExcludeHttpsAutoDiscoverDomain DWORD 0
ExcludeHttpRedirect ExcludeSrvRecord DWORD 0
[Their email domain] --If exists, delete it.
3. Run the "Set up and configure your Office desktop apps" by clicking Download in MOP at portal.microsoftonline.com .
4. Create a new outlook profile by clicking Control Panel -> Mail -> Show Profiles -> "Add".
5. Follow the article below to configure the Outlook client to connect to Exchange Online.
Set Up E-Mail in Outlook 2010 help.outlook.com/.../dd253202.aspx
Please also add a CNAME record for autodiscover.remote.trends.com.hk and point to autodiscover.outlook.com and then see if it helps.
I cannot find the mentioned registry in either the AD or the workstations. Please check the screenshot as below:
Based on the current situation, I would suggest you try to add a CNAME record for autodiscover.remote.trends.com.hk and point to autodiscover.outlook.com and then see if it helps.
How are things going?
If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us. It is always our pleasure to be of assistance.
Hi Anna,
User reported to me that the problem is persisted after almost 24 hours I added the DNS record, however it improved, it only pop up once when the outlook started, it was pop up many times when the outlook is running. But is that alert must pop up once the Outlook started? Or are there any ways to make the pop up disable?
I glad to know we got improvement. Based on current situation, I would like to clarify if you checked the check box to save username and password? Thanks.
Best regards,
Alex Du
Hi Alex,
As you see the first post of mine, you can see there have a security alert keep prompting before, not the username and password prompt. User reported to me that if he pressed "yes", the whole profile will not be usable. So he must keep informing user to press "no" to the security alert.
Hello Steven,
Is this issue still occuring when trying to get mail through remote.trends.com.hk? If so, you may want to add this CNAME record to your domain registrar: autodiscover.remote.trends.com.hk and point it to autodiscover.outlook.com
I hope this helps.
Hi Kenneth,
The problem still occurring even the CNAME record pointed as you suggested. Please advise. Thanks.
Dear O365 Support team,
Anyone one can reply me about this case? Our client said once they press "Yes" for the certificate alert, the whole Outlook profile will need to reconfigure again. Are there any ways to disable that security alert? Please advise.
Anyone can reply me about this case? There have no answer yet for this question.

Cuyahoga County Planning Geographic Information System
The Cuyahoga County Planning Commission is pleased to present its Greenprint Viewer. This modern online geographic information system (GIS) was developed in conjunction with the Cuyahoga County Greenprint Guide Book and in partnership with the Cuyahoga County GIS Department. It features a variety of data from local, state, and federal sources that go beyond typical online maps, as well as tools for measuring, querying, and markup. The mapper is designed to function across platforms, and will operate on desktop and mobile systems. Map services are also available (features and tiled images), and the GIS includes a Technical Guide with instructions, layer information, and a FAQ.
The Greenprint Viewer GIS is intended to help users to evaluate aspects of Cuyahoga County's natural and man-made systems. For other research, the County's MyPlace Viewer is a valuable option.
The Cuyahoga County Planning Commission has provided digital mapping services for Cuyahoga County since the early 1990s. Our earliest online GIS, the Brownfields GIS, was developed in the late 1990s to support brownfields redevelopment, with the financial support of the George Gund Foundation. Our second-generation online GIS, the Community Planning GIS, was launched in 2009. Constructed on the Cuyahoga Enterprise GIS (CEGIS) platform, it featured numerous data layers complied from a variety of sources, and was developed with the help of many partners. Our Greenprint Viewer, launched in 2015, continues this tradition of providing online GIS capabilities for the public.

One of the most amazing sights within China is the Detian Waterfall. This is situated in Beihai, Guangxi and its view is something that is totally unforgettable. This is known not just all over in China but also in the entirety of Asia and the world.
Interestingly, since this is situated in between China and Vietnam, it is considered as an attraction that is shared by both. Hence, there is a wide mix of tourists who go to this place, some originate from China while others are from Vietnam.
The main sections of the Detian Waterfall are awe-inspiring. To make the surroundings even more captivating, the horizon is also decorated by other nearby attractions which are already situated in nearby places like Thailand and Vietnam.
Things to Do
Walking Towards the Top
The walk towards the top of the Detian Waterfall may require some effort but it is all worth it. Since the Detian Waterfall is frequented by a lot of tourists every year, there are already designated trails which visitors could take. The paths have been slightly cleared so that passing through would not be so difficult. Yet, the surroundings still have rich greens because of the myriad of plants and flowers which grow around the place.
Detian Waterfall
Different Sections
The Detian Waterfall can be divided into two different sections. The main waterfall is named as the Detian Waterfall. This section is situated mostly on the Chinese part in terms of geography. On the other hand, there is also the second part of this tourist destination which is called as the Ban Gioc Waterfall or Banyue Waterfall. This is found in between Vietnam and China.
For people who will be visiting the Detian Waterfall, they can notice three main tiers because of the rock formation. Hence, the water which comes from the top of the falls cascades downward with so much grace. This is accompanied by the boisterous but pleasing noise of the water. During summer months, the waterfalls do not really dry up but the amount of flowing water is reduced. On rainy months, the Detian Waterfall can really give powerful downpour of water which is such a captivating sight.
Because of the intricacy of the walls which are formed by rocks, the beauty of this attraction can be overpowering. It is not just a linear water formation. It looks more like a merging of several smaller waterfalls to form one major tourist attraction.
Even if there are different sections of the Detian Waterfall, people do not need to hop from China to Vietnam just to be able to see the full view. Without leaving China, people can already enjoy the spectacular view of the falls.
Boat Ride Along the Lake
As the water falls from the steep rocks, it forms a basin of fresh and clear pool. For people who would not want to climb up the top of the falls, exploring the areas which surround the lake is also a good idea.
There are wooden boats which can be found lining up along the lake. These are owned by some of the locals who offer rides for visitors. The boats are very interesting because they look like rafts with installed benches. Some also have a canopy so that the passengers would be protected from the sun and rain. The boat ride could take the visitors a bit closer to the main waterfalls area. This can also take tourists to the entire stretch of the lake so they will be able to see the beauty of the surrounding areas.
