Two Utahns who spent childhood in internment camps say history must not repeat
Laura Seitz, Deseret News
This is the first in a two-part series about how Pearl Harbor affected both Utahns and Japanese with Utah ties.
SALT LAKE CITY — In a big glass house overlooking the Utah State Capitol, Ted Nagata, 75, sits in front of his Macintosh and clicks through the scenes of his childhood. Here he is, smiling, with his sister and mother, he says. Here he is with a good friend. Here he is with his schoolmates, behind barbed wire under armed watch.
In the Avenues of Salt Lake City, sandwiched between two $1 million homes, Raymond Uno, 80 — sans photos — recounts a similar story. He was in middle school in California when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, forever changing the course of his life. Within a matter of months he was shipped off to the desert and locked up for the sole crime of being of Japanese-American descent.
Both men, one a retired judge, the other a retired graphic design artist, recall the three plus years they spent in captivity dryly, shedding no tears, speaking as if they were reading out of a history book. "I was a child," Nagata said. "I didn't understand the gravity of what had been done to me," Uno said.
But what they didn't understand as children came back to haunt them as adults. They lost their freedom, their dignity, their inheritance — all things the U.S. Constitution vowed to protect. Their parents, overwhelmed by the burden of it all, tried their best but, for one reason or another, the two youngsters found themselves faced with the task of growing up on their own. Innocence lost, they resolved to do what they could to make sure history did not repeat. Though their lists of accomplishments are long, the now-graying men acknowledge with dismay that, illustrated by the way the country is dealing with immigration and the War on Terror, Americans of different ethnic backgrounds still don't trust each other.
"I feel that I've been a failure because I haven't laid the groundwork for my kids to live in a world that's a world of peace," Uno said. "The question of racism and hate, I guess, is something that every generation must learn themselves."
Ted Nagata was at school when the bomb fell, Dec. 7, 1941, probably struggling, as most 7-year-olds do, to hold still as his teacher explained some concept of arithmetic or another. With wide eyes, he registered the news: Japan — the country of his ancestry — had attacked the United States — the country of his citizenship. And, with no further warning, the little boy's life turned upside down.
"I knew it was a big deal," Nagata recalled, "but I never imagined what was coming."
Strangers on the street looked at him like he was vermin. His Caucasian friends called him names and stopped inviting him to play. After rounding up and incarcerating some 1,500 Japanese-American leaders and shutting down hundreds of Japanese-American-owned businesses, the government required all Japanese Americans to register and carry identification cards. They were not allowed to travel more than 5 miles from their homes and were given an 8 p.m. curfew.
One day, one of Nagata's former playmates took him aside and told him gravely, "Ted, I'm so sorry you have to leave." Nagata was confused. He couldn't imagine why his family would give up the life they'd built for themselves in California. They had a house, a car, a successful business selling sewing machines. But just a few weeks later, via posters tacked to telephone poles, the bad news was confirmed: "Pursuant to the provisions of the Civilian Exclusion Order… all persons of Japanese ancestry, both alien and non-alien, will be evacuated."'

Submit Benchmarks!
Compare any two graphics cards:
GeForce GTX 550 Ti vs Radeon R7 250
IntroThe GeForce GTX 550 Ti features a clock frequency of 900 MHz and a GDDR5 memory speed of 1026 MHz. It also makes use of a 192-bit bus, and uses a 40 nm design. It is comprised of 192 SPUs, 32 Texture Address Units, and 24 ROPs.
Compare all that to the Radeon R7 250, which comes with a core clock frequency of 1000 MHz and a GDDR5 memory frequency of 1150 MHz. It also features a 128-bit bus, and makes use of a 28 nm design. It is comprised of 384 SPUs, 24 TAUs, and 8 Raster Operation Units.
Display Graphs
Power Usage and Theoretical Benchmarks
Power Consumption (Max TDP)
Memory Bandwidth
The GeForce GTX 550 Ti, in theory, should perform a lot faster than the Radeon R7 250 overall. (explain)
Texel RateThe GeForce GTX 550 Ti should be a small bit (approximately 20%) faster with regards to AF than the Radeon R7 250. (explain)
Pixel RateThe GeForce GTX 550 Ti will be a lot (about 170%) more effective at anti-aliasing than the Radeon R7 250, and also will be capable of handling higher resolutions while still performing well. (explain)
Please note that the above 'benchmarks' are all just theoretical - the results were calculated based on the card's specifications, and real-world performance may (and probably will) vary at least a bit.
Price Comparison
Display Prices
Please note that the price comparisons are based on search keywords - sometimes it might show cards with very similar names that are not exactly the same as the one chosen in the comparison. We do try to filter out the wrong results as best we can, though.
Display Specifications
Memory Bandwidth: Memory bandwidth is the max amount of data (counted in megabytes per second) that can be transported over the external memory interface within a second. It is calculated by multiplying the interface width by the speed of its memory. If it uses DDR type RAM, the result should be multiplied by 2 again. If DDR5, multiply by 4 instead. The better the bandwidth is, the faster the card will be in general. It especially helps with anti-aliasing, HDR and high resolutions.
Texel Rate: Texel rate is the maximum number of texture map elements (texels) that are applied per second. This number is calculated by multiplying the total texture units by the core speed of the chip. The better the texel rate, the better the video card will be at texture filtering (anisotropic filtering - AF). It is measured in millions of texels applied in one second.
Pixel Rate: Pixel rate is the maximum number of pixels the video card could possibly write to its local memory in a second - measured in millions of pixels per second. The number is worked out by multiplying the number of ROPs by the clock speed of the card. ROPs (Raster Operations Pipelines - also called Render Output Units) are responsible for outputting the pixels (image) to the screen. The actual pixel output rate is also dependant on quite a few other factors, especially the memory bandwidth - the lower the memory bandwidth is, the lower the potential to reach the maximum fill rate.

Like it or not, eLearning is transforming maritime training. People may argue its merits and applications, but there is no arguing that it is here to stay. As eLearning continues to expand its presence, all of us involved in maritime training are going to be faced with critical decisions about whether and how we employ it in our organizations. But do we know enough to make informed decisions? Do we truly understand eLearning, its strengths, its limitations, and how it is best applied?
This is the second in a series of articles which examines eLearning in the maritime industry. The first article, on page 22 of April's Maritime Reporter, discussed blended learning (the combination of face-to-face and eLearning) and presented some research on its effectiveness. Next month's article will look at the practical benefits of blended learning. But understanding eLearning and its benefits is only half the battle. It is equally important to examine its limitations, the topic we address here.
The Limitations of eLearning
Before presenting some of the benefits of eLearning in next month's article, it is important to understand its limitations when considering its use in maritime training. Like any powerful tool, eLearning can improve efficiency and effectiveness if it is applied to take advantage of its strengths. However, it may be of no help at all (and in fact may even be detrimental) if applied in a way for which it is not well suited. The cliché "the right tool for the right job" comes to mind here. So what is the "job" for which eLearning is not the "right tool"? What are the limitations of eLearning?
Not a Replacement for Hands-On Training
E-Learning is an excellent tool for teaching knowledge, including the fundamental knowledge on which skills are built. However, when a skill needs to be mastered, there is no substitute for hands-on learning.
Therefore, in maritime training where both skills and knowledge are required, it is important that we apply the correct technique for each. Practise, alone, cannot teach the required knowledge. eLearning, alone, cannot teach the required skills. This makes maritime training especially suited to a blended learning approach (combining eLearning with hands-on training). Not only are a wider variety of learning styles addressed, but the best technique can be employed for each of the knowledge and skills which must be assimilated. But the comment stands that eLearning can never be a complete replacement for hands-on learning.
E-Learning Cannot Replace an Instructor
Unfortunately, some organizations which employ eLearning believe that they can create a high-quality training experience without the use of a course instructor or an on-line course facilitator. This is generally not the case. Whether in-person or on-line, some person is still needed to guide, mentor, motivate, and answer questions. This person is also critical in accommodating trainees who have learning needs which are not anticipated by the learning materials. In this case, there is no substitute for a human at the front of the class or on the other end of the on-line communication forum to listen, reflect and suggest.
It is especially important to keep this point in mind if you choose to employ CD-based training packages. While some web-based eLearning experiences provide tools for trainees to communicate with their peer or a course facilitator, CD-based training packages typically do not. Therefore, if you do use CD-based training, you may wish to consider supplementing it with either face-to-face meetings or on-line discussion tools to provide access to a course instructor or facilitator.
E-Learning is Not a Cure-All
There are many examples of poor on-line courses just as there are many examples of poor classroom-based courses. It is just as easy to create one as the other. Taking a poor face-to-face course and putting it on-line does not turn it into a good course. It is now just a bad course, on-line. Likewise for instructors. A poor instructor who becomes a facilitator of an on-line course is now simply a poor instructor, on-line.
Although this may seem like an obvious observation, I highlight it because many organizations, when they decide to employ eLearning, do so because they believe that changing the delivery model will improve the course. It doesn't. E-Learning can be an excellent way to improve access, learning outcomes and experiences. However, the same consideration for pedagogy must be devoted to the design of the course and needs of the trainees as if the course was to be delivered in class.
Cost Reduction
The prospect of cost savings was a primary early driver for eLearning. Since then, experience has taught us much about the cost of on-line courses. Simply said, a high-quality eLearning course (with a course facilitator or instructor) tends to be no less expensive to deliver than its classroom-based alternative. There are some caveats to this, however.
Those who claim that eLearning is far less expensive than classroom-based courses make that claim for one of the following reasons:
1. Because the cost of travel and accommodation is removed when using eLearning. This is often a legitimate, and possibly substantial, cost saving.
2. Because the cost of building and maintaining infrastructure (classrooms) is typically a lot less than the cost of maintaining eLearning infrastructure (LMS license costs, etc). This, too is usually a legitimate claim.
3. Because they are comparing the cost of classroom-based instruction against eLearning which is not supported by a course facilitator or instructor (for example, training via a CD-ROM). Removing the cost of an instructor will indeed result in a substantial cost savings, but the comparison is unfair. The experiences and outcomes delivered by any course done in the absence of an instructor are likely to be poorer than those done with.
So - there can be cost differences, but each implementation is different and therefore there is no single correct answer to this question. In general, the delivery of a good eLearning experience, once you exclude infrastructure and travel costs, is approximately the same as for classroom-based instruction.
Most eLearning environments rely on internet connectivity. In fact, most traditional learning management systems assume that trainees will always have web access. This can be a problem in maritime training where trainees are sometimes on-board without such connectivity.
Fortunately, this is less of a problem than it was in the past. First, there are learning management systems which do not assume full-time internet connectivity. For example, the LMS created by the company I work for makes all critical functionality available off-line or on-paper and in addition will soon support synchronized vessel-based servers. Secondly, there is an accelerating trend toward on-board broadband. We have already experienced growth in capabilities with the evolution from narrow-band L-Band services to VSAT C-band. New technologies and reduced costs mean that this trend will continue to accelerate. The implications for eLearning are obvious.
Having said that, there is no question that, for now, eLearning cannot truly be as "anywhere/anytime" as its potential implies for those who spend the majority of their time on vessels without internet connectivity. But then again, it remains much more available "anywhere and anytime" than classroom-based courses.
Do any of these limitations prevent eLearning from being of benefit in maritime training? Absolutely not. However, it is important to understand these limits in order to make intelligent decisions about where it can be deployed, how it can be of benefit, and where it is best to stay with traditional models.
The third and final installment of this series will look at the practical advantages of eLearning in the maritime industry. Look for it in the June issue of Maritime Reporter.

Why I'm voting "In"
There is a lot of commentary out there at the moment on whether voters in the UK should elect to leave the EU ("Brexit") or stay in it. Here's my contribution.
There is a left-wing case for leaving the EU. It's summed-up in the beginning of this article. Much of the population of Greece might understand very well that the EU promotes the interests of capital and those that control it over the interests of people in general. Not only that, but the choice we are facing in this referendum is between the pissy half-in membership of the EU that our government has negotiated and being completely out. But the version of completely-out that we are being offered is one on the terms of the likes of Farage, Gove, and Johnson. An out vote will be a vote for a right-wing future. A one based on fear of foreigners and a distaste for a communal approach to things like human rights. There is no left-wing exit option on the table this time. Left-wingers who promote voting "leave" at this referendum are only useful idiots. The rest of the article I link to at the top of this paragraph goes over the arguments, as does this one.
Brexit, science & the economy
Part of the remit of this blog is to do with the environment under which scientific research takes place, and many scientists have been vocal in supporting the UK staying in the EU. Here, for example, is a letter from 13 nobel science laureates. It's no wonder that us academics are by and large in favour of staying in. We tend to be fairly international in our outlook. Our profession is about education and research and borders are only a hindrance to those things. The government's anti-immigration rhetoric and policies usually have a detrimental effect on higher education, irrespective of the current EU referendum. Much of the science-related debate regarding the EU has been about funding. The UK wins a lot of EU research grants, and this source of funding would be thrown into doubt by us leaving the EU. The small group of pro-Brexit scientists that are campaigning on a "scientists for Britain" platform have tried to argue that we would probably still be able to apply for EU funding in the sciences. That's not what happened to Switzerland, though, when they tried to limit immigration and freedom of movement. They lost the right to bid for EU science funding, and to participate in the Erasmus+ scheme for student and staff mobility. Eventually -- yesterday -- the Leave campaign said they would match funding for science if any were lost by us leaving the EU. Not that they are in the position to make such promises, but it was a strong admissions that leaving would be, on the face of it, bad for science, that the needed to make such a promise. The small group of pro-Brexiters that self-identify as scientists only go to show that turkeys sometimes vote for Christmas, and that they don't prioritise science too highly in their reasons for wanting to leave.
The left-wing case for leaving the EU
There is a left-wing case for leaving the EU. It's summed-up in the beginning of this article. Much of the population of Greece might understand very well that the EU promotes the interests of capital and those that control it over the interests of people in general. Not only that, but the choice we are facing in this referendum is between the pissy half-in membership of the EU that our government has negotiated and being completely out.

Left-wingers who promote voting "leave" at this referendum are only useful idiots. The rest of the article I link to at the top of this paragraph goes over the arguments, as does this one.
"I want my country back"
The economic arguments regarding the leave–stay campaign have been won by the remain campaign, it seems. But okay -- I think most Brexiters' primary concerns are to do with ideas of democracy and being able to have democratic control over the country (particularly borders). I think the same arguments apply here as they do in the left-wing argument. Since Thatcher, and possibly earlier, we have handed over control of our country to the controllers of capital, rather than in favour of the populace. What exactly would we be getting "back"? A neoliberal Utopia is not really getting our country back, I don't think. Are Brexiters hoping that we will somehow get a 1950s version of England? Complete with child abuse and the ability to make racial or homophobic slurs with impunity? I don't think there is any prospect of getting anything "back" that people asking for getting our country back want. (Oh, and if you want to read actual evidence on what immigration does for us, look here).
Ironically, those looking to make this a kind of united United Kingdom against the rest of the EU seem likely to find themselves having facilitated the break-up of the UK. What is for sure if we leave the EU battle is that we will have revealed that the population of the UK is not at all united in how it sees its relation with Europe -- indeed, that has already been shown. Of course, the majority can impose its views on the rest -- that is how democracy works. What they can't do is claim that we have somehow returned to the natural unit of concordant nationality. They will have disproved all their arguments, and they can contemplate that if a newly independent Scotland re-joins their fellow Europeans. I wouldn't blame them if they did.

New element names
The announcement came through today that the elements 113, 115, 117, and 118 now have names suggested by the discoverers and recommended for acceptance by the official committee that deals with such things. There is now a public review, ending on 8th November 2016, but I can't see any reason why the names will not stand. They are:
113: Nihonium, after Japan, where the element was discovered
115: Moscovium, since the element 115 effort was a collaboration involving a research lab in Dubna, in Russia's Moscow Oblast
117: Tennessine, honouring the role of Tennessee in the collaboration, with scientists from Oak Ridge National Lab, UT Knoxville, and Vanderbilt University (Nashville) involved in the work. The different ending to the element name comes from the fact that element 117 sits in the halogens which conventionally end with the –ine suffix.
118: Oganesson, after Yuri Oganessian, who for many years has been the driving force of the superheavy element group at Dubna. The –on ending is thanks to element 118 sitting in the noble gas column of the periodic table. That's Yuri Oganessian in the picture attached to this post. Well done Yuri, and everyone else involved in the discoveries.

Line of Control
I saw a tweet earlier today relevant to both my current geographical location (Indian-controlled Kashmir) and matters nuclear. It was from the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organisation and pointed to a blog / news post of its own. It pointed out that 28th May is the anniversary of Pakistan's series of nuclear bomb tests which took place over three days starting on 28th May 1998.
I'm in Kashmir, through which runs an contested border between India and Pakistan. While I'm in the Indian part of Kashmir, in the capital Srinagar, the nearest national capital to where I am is Islamabad, about 100 miles away. I read in the article that the bomb tests took place "in the eastern part of the country" but a quick look at the map they show in the post indicates that actually it was in the west of Pakistan, quite far from where I am now. It also reminded me that I am currently in one of the nine nuclear weapons states. In fact it is the fifth one I have been to this year (following the UK, US, France & China). I expect to go Russia in September. Now perhaps I need to arrange trips to Pakistan, North Korea, and Israel.
The de facto border between India and Pakistan up here in Kashmir is called the Line of Control. I was amused by the sign (shown in the photo) used in the coffee shop next to the guesthouse on campus which indicated where the staff area was, where the public is not supposed to enter.

Does dark matter cause cancer?
A quick post today while I distract myself from the stack of marking that piles up at this time of year. This is one I fully expect to appear on the front page of the Daily Mail or the Express: I saw today that there is a new article in the journal Physics Letters B entitled Dark Matter as a Cancer Hazard. I haven't read it in detail (perhaps someone who does could make their own post or comment below) but it's an assessment of whether some popular candidates for dark matter could undergo the same kind of interaction with atomic nuclei that might cause a DNA mutation that other kinds of known radiation can do.
We don't know if the kind of dark matter used in the paper even exists. If it does, there's not a whole lot we could do about it anyway, but it'd be kinda interesting if it is a background cause of cancer -- and it would mean that we effectively have detected this kind of dark matter without realising it

"I found this story "trigger-y""
By "trigger-y", I mean that the experiences of the heroine made me a little uncomfortable and it was difficult at times for me to handle the brutal discussions/descriptions of what she'd been through. I don't think Banks handle things badly, however, if you're sensitive to issues of rape and sexual violence (especially to the extent this character experienced), you may want to reconsider.
I enjoyed the story and I liked the characters, but there was a lot of repetition of regarding everyone's feelings which make the book seem 20% longer than it needs to be. Also, I'm now really tired of the word "flesh".
"Didn't Seal the Deal With Book #2"
I was looking forward to the second book in this series. The first one was OUTSTANDING. This second book missed the mark by a longshot. There was so action, only a lot of internal thoughts from the main character. And I agree with another reviewer, it was never explained why a woman who was kidnapped, raped and imprisoned was hated by the entire clan. That made no sense at all.
The narraration was outstanding as usual. Kirsten Potter does an excellent job with voice inflection, emotion and different voices. I can always listen to her. I'll listen to another Maya Banks, but I was not sold on this story at all. I hope #3 is better.
I'm a lover of books, both read and audible.
"Them Montgomery Lads"
I'm a huge fan of Maya Banks. When I read the first book of this series, I was touched by the affection portrayed between the hero and heroine. I have to admit that I didn't like Bowen in the first book. I wanted to hit him in the eye. But in this book, I downright feel in love with Bowen Montgomery. The strength and passion that he displayed throughout this book, made me feel in love with his story.
As always, Kristen Potter did a fantastic read and added just the right amount of emotion and depth to the characters. I was captive with this book from page one didn't remove my headphones until the final word was spoken.
I highly encourage this book, this series. Read and Enjoy.
"great book"
"I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast dot com."
highlander books are the best and this one was wonderful. i was not disappointed. loved it
"loved it"
I listen to it often..great characters and story line it keeps me listening often thanks
"True Love + suspense"
I fell in love with Bowen. I fell in love with Genevieve. I fell in love with their love. The readers performance is remarkable. I could tell the difference in each character!
Enjoy romance, erotic, and YA
"Very emotional & satisfying"
I a can't believe I became emotional & teared up. This was the 2nd book in series. Each book is a stand alone with characters from 1st book appearing in this book. Worth the credit.
"absolutely addicting!"
I love Maya Banks Highlander series! Kirsten is one the best narrators, worth the credit or buying outright.
"another greatread"
This highlander book is well written.
great interaction between main characters. Sexual tension was good.
she's good, but not my favourite.
not sure.
"A Lot of Crying Going On"
Don't look for any humorous banter. This is not exactly a "feel good" novel. The heroine has been kidnapped, raped and had her "extraordinarily beautiful face ruined by knife scar" all before the story starts. The people of the clan she was abducted into continue to tread her abominably even after the villain is killed off -- that happen in book #1 in the series.
Every time someone commits some new act of cruelty towards her, the heroine is brave and tries not to cry, but she often does. If she doesn't cry it is because she is in too much despair and too depressed to cry.
The hero forces the heroine's only friend in the clan to tell him bits and pieces of the heroine's story. She never wants to betray her friend's confidence, but eventually breaks down in tears and does so.
The author eventually does deliver the required HEA, but just before that happens the hero becomes so upset about how he and other people have treated the heroine that he breaks down and cries.
Have your tissues handy.

The Maori King's son has succeeded in his bid to avoid drink-driving and theft convictions after his lawyer argued it was likely to bar his succession to the throne.
Korotangi Paki, 19, appeared in the Auckland District Court this afternoon charged with drink driving, two counts of burglary and one of theft.
Judge Philippa Cunningham discharged Paki without conviction on all charges but imposed a special condition that he provide the court evidence he did not have an alcohol problem or if he did, that he had addressed it with counselling.
Details of the drink-driving offence, which took place on October 20, had previously been suppressed, but today Judge Cunningham revealed he had been stopped on a Gisborne street at 2.15am.
Breath testing gave a reading of 761. The current limit for drivers under the age of 20 is zero.
The burglaries and theft happened in March while he was on bail and the judge noted it had also occurred after a night of drinking.
Paki, supported in court by his heavily pregnant girlfriend, previously pleaded guilty to all charges arising from the theft of two surfboards from Waikanae Motor Camp and items from a car.
His accomplices to the thefts, Te Ahorangi Totorewa, 20; Hamuera Wipoha Pugh, 19; and Raa Ngaru Smith, were sentenced in the Gisborne District Court last week.
The trio was ordered to each pay prosecution costs of $400 and were discharged without conviction.
Paki also applied for a discharge without conviction today.
His lawyer Paul Wicks QC told the court a conviction would impede his ability to accede to the throne.
Potential successors had to have an unblemished record because of the custodial responsibilities involved as King.
"The chiefs around the country are often heard to say [heirs to the throne] have to be 'whiter than the dove'," Wicks said.
Paki's age and significant steps taken to show remorse through restorative justice processes, voluntary community work and completion of the Right Path programme lowered the severity of the offences, Wicks said.
However, police prosecutor Gul Qaisrani argued a discharge without conviction would set a negative precedent, describing Paki's attitude during the time of the second offences as "reckless".
"He knew at the time what would be the consequences and what would be the implications of the conviction."
Therefore he should be liable for the punishment, he said.
Outside court Paki's representative and former MP Tuku Morgan said it was a "major turning point in his life".
"He's an expectant father and you can see he's brought shame upon his father, his family and Tainui," Morgan said.
He heralded the court's decision as a victory for Maori.
"I think that is a recognition of the uniqueness of this country. Maori tikanga, Maori culture has been recognised today by a very senior court."
If Judge Cunningham's condition is met in two weeks, the discharge without conviction will be granted.
However, Students Against Driving Drunk chief executive Anna Braidwood said she believed the judge's decision was the wrong one.
"It's one law for every New Zealander so the consequences should be fair and balanced. In this guy's case he was way above the adult limit and he could have caused some serious serious harm.
"Nothing he does takes back the decision he has made."
Braidwood said it was important to send the right message about consequences to young people.
"When we have cases like this - and it's not the only one - it's sending a really unbalanced message. I think it's always important that people take ownership. Part of that is accepting the guilt."

Harrington, Knicks end Pacers' five-game win streak
INDIANAPOLIS -- Al Harrington helped the Knicks finally get a win.
Now, he hopes they can get a superstar.
Harrington scored 13 of his 26 points in the fourth quarter, and New York beat Indiana 110-103 on Wednesday night to end a six-game losing streak and halt the Pacers' win streak at five games.
Much of the talk after the game was about Allen Iverson. Memphis waived the unhappy point guard Tuesday, and the Knicks acknowledge they plan to discuss the possibility of adding the 34-year-old former MVP. Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni has even discussed how he would fit into the team.
Harrington is one of several Knicks who would be glad to see Iverson in blue and orange. He spoke as though Iverson's arrival was imminent.
"I think it will help things," Harrington said. "You got a guy who's a proven scorer, probably a Hall of Famer. He can only do positive things, I think, to this team."
Eddy Curry, who scored 10 points in 12 minutes in his first game since he tore his right calf muscle on the opening day of training camp, said Iverson could provide a boost.
"He's a great player," Curry said. "We can definitely use the help."
On Wednesday, Harrington was the explosive scorer the Knicks needed, especially in the fourth quarter. He made 3 of 4 3-pointers in the final 12 minutes.
"Up until that point, I really didn't have no rhythm," he said. "But I always feel like I'm one shot away. I hit one, hit two, confidence gets going."
He said it wasn't a big deal to return to Conseco Fieldhouse, where he had two stints with the Pacers.
"It's just another game now," he said. "When I first came back, my first year, I was nervous and all that, but now it's just another game."
Larry Hughes had 22 points and 10 rebounds, Wilson Chandler scored 18 points and David Lee added 17 for the Knicks (2-9), who overcame a 13-point deficit in the final period.
Danny Granger scored 30 of his 33 points in the first half, but fouled out in the fourth quarter and wasn't a factor after halftime. His 30 points was the most a Pacer had scored in a half since Reggie Miller scored 33 against Philadelphia in 2001.
Indiana (5-4) shot 59 percent in the first half, but 24 percent in the second.
"We got a little stagnant and we missed some shots," said Dahntay Jones, who scored 25 points. "They outplayed us, they outhustled us. That's basically the tale of that."
The Pacers led 93-80 in the fourth quarter before the Knicks got hot. Back-to-back 3-pointers by Harrington cut Indiana's lead to 97-96 with 3:56 to play, and New York finally took the lead on a pair of free throws by Hughes with 3:11 to go.
Granger fouled out with 1:26 left and the Knicks leading 101-100. New York pulled away from there as Granger sat on the bench with his head down.
"He's their best scorer, he's a dynamic player, an All-Star," Lee said. "That's huge for them when he's not able to get as many shots, partially because of foul trouble. It makes them go to different options."
Granger shot 11 for 14 in the first half, including 5 of 6 3-pointers. He did it all, scoring on drives and jumpers while still finding time to grab six boards. The Pacers led 69-54 at the break.
The Pacers came out cold in the second half, missing seven of their first eight shots. Hughes made a 3-pointer to cut Indiana's lead to 71-62.
Jones made a 3-pointer, and Tyler Hansbrough had a dunk and a three-point play during a 10-1 run that gave Indiana an 82-63 lead.
New York bounced back with an 11-0 run that included six points by Harrington, but Indiana still led 86-76 at the end of the third.
The Knicks outscored the Pacers 34-17 in the fourth quarter. Now, they want to build the right kind of streak.
"Seventy-some games left," Hughes said. "There are a lot of games to be played. We can't get into a situation where we panic. We're not in that big a hole, but we do need to put it together, so we needed this win tonight."
Game notes
Indiana F Troy Murphy sat out with a bruised lower back. He joined Travis Diener (toe, left foot), Jeff Foster (sprained right ankle) and Mike Dunleavy (right knee) on the injured list. ... Granger scored 10 of his 13 first-quarter points after committing his second foul with 10:18 to go. ... Curry and Indiana's Solomon Jones were hit with technicals after an altercation in the second quarter. ... Hansbrough was cleared to play more than 16 minutes for the first time after missing the preseason with a shin injury. He scored 14 points in 18 minutes.

Waitrose to Halve Packaging by 2016
Waitrose yesterday announced a goal to cut its packaging in half by 2016 compared to 2005 along with other changes to its products that the UK supermarket chain says will save about 100 metric tons of packaging each year.
The Menu from Waitrose range of prepared meals has been relaunched with a full redesign and packaging update for all of the 49 products within the range. The width of the sleeves on the outside of the products has been decreased, resulting in a reduction of 33 metric tons of packaging per year, equivalent to a 20 percent overall weight saving, Waitrose says.
In what it says is an industry first, the retailer has also introduced aluminum trays (see photo) in which customers can cook and serve the prepared meals and recycle it after use.
The Good to Go range of 190 snacks and sandwiches has also been relaunched, with packaging reductions totaling 25 metric tons per year. Changes include increasing the size of the clear window on sandwiches to allow better visibility of the product, cutting 11 metric tons of packaging per year. The company also developed pre-printed bags for fruit portions, saving 60 percent of the weight by taking off the label.
After being introduced for diced meat in 2010, Waitrose's "flow wrap" packaging has now been rolled out for all meat including lamb and pork. By removing the plastic tray in the packs of pork and lamb, Waitrose will cut 38 metric tons of packaging per year — a 70 percent saving, the grocer says.
Halving packaging by 2016 is one of the 12 pledges in the Waitrose Way commitments, which launched this week. The commitments span four corporate sustainability goals: treading lightly, championing British, treating people fairly and living well. The new environmental targets include:
- Cutting the company's carbon footprint by 2020 even though the business will double in size by owering more than 40 stores with renewable woodchips and replacing all lights with energy-efficient LEDs.
- Ensuing all our fish sold is independently certified as sustainable by 2016.
- Contributing more than £1 billion ($1.6 billion) to its farmers and suppliers to ensure they use sustainable farming methods.
Waitrose announced last month it will stop using pesticides linked to declining bee populations by the end of 2014. By the end of next year, farmers supplying Waitrose fruit, vegetables and flowers must phase out three neonicotinoid-based pesticides: imidacloprid, clothianidin and thiamethoxam.
Imidacloprid, thiamethoxam and clothianidin are among the three neonicotinoid chemicals identified by the European Food Safety Authority and scientists from EU member states as posing a risk to honeybees.

Britney Looks Not Like A Girl But A (Beautiful) Woman
We'll just get it out in the open right now: We love Britney. From tweeting with the Mars Rover to her fashion collaborations, whenever Miss Spears pops up in our newsfeed, we can't help but indulge our piqued curiosity.
That's why we were delighted to see her looking chic (!) in the October issue of ELLE. It looks like Britney has ditched her gas station vibe for something decidedly more fitting of her pop-mogul status.
She talks to ELLE about her relationship, being a bride-to-be, personal style, and celebrity. In an adorable moment, Britney cuts off her fiancé, Jason Trawick, by interjecting, "Okay, that's enough information, sweetie. It was sweet, just say that." ( Elle )
We know you're out there, haters, and we only have one thing to say: Leave Britney alone.

To "Kings Court" would you rather schools work with kids to help them

deviation from those standards?
This is the "one size fits all" type of education that you are advocating. While working with students to get them to prove that they have mastery of certain subjects is highly important, there has to be some very cautious hands that help students graduate using alternate routs and methodologies.

Evacuate The Earth Lyrics
Artist: Nasum
Album: The Black Illusions
Evacuate the earth! What else can we do?
Evacuate the earth! Time is running short...
No time for repentance, no time for regret -
just leave this forsaken ground
The dream about the utopia
is just an inversion of the truth
Succumb - the horror, invoke - the end
Evacuate the earth! End all while you can
Evacuate the earth! Do not postpone your fate
Leave all the chaos, leave all the turmoil -
leave this carcass called earth
When all hope is lost, close your eyes
and fall into the illusion
Succumb - the horror, invoke - the end
